| ibrahimmufeed | billiard_junkee, no problem thank you :) | 00:00 |
| Misantropo | how do i know which app has alsa opened? | 00:01 |
| Roasted | jrib - Hmm, it just confused me becuase I watched a how to video on how to set up ACLs and the guy had 700 permissions on a directory, owned by root:root, but he granted more user permissions through ACLs. I just didn't see how that made sense to have 700 root-root perms yet other users could access throguh ACLs. | 00:01 |

| looter | I just updated to 9.10 from 9.04. now when I boot up to ubuntu the screen just flashes as it is loading the nvidia drivers. I can get into a GUI if I boot into recovery and then delete xorg.conf and then startx. I cannot seem to get the Nvidia drivers to activate though and buecause of this my graphic settings are low. I tried reinstalling via synaptci anyone else hav eany suggestions? | 00:01 |

| git__ | hyperstream, yes | 00:02 |
| linuxguy2009 | sebsebseb: I could care less about the security of the VNC vs SSH connection for that to be honest. Is it simply not possible to do it anyways without the extra steps? | 00:02 |
| ibrahimmufeed | billiard_junkee, I will check it | 00:02 |
| sebsebseb | looter: Go back to 9.04 for now? since really 9.10 is a testbed for 10.04 well you can try fixing stuff in recovory mode maybe with xfix. Also Nivida graphics card drivers tend to just work. | 00:03 |
| jrib | Roasted: it's the same way that if you have a file owned by someuser:somegroup with permissions 770 a user in somegroup can access the files even though he is not someuser | 00:03 |
| epinky | Roasted: what is the problem? | 00:03 |

| ubottu | looter: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. | 00:04 |
| jrib | Roasted: ACLs let you use more groups for one :) | 00:04 |
| sebsebseb | looter: clean install | 00:04 |
| looter | rgr, will try it | 00:04 |
| Roasted | jrib - exactly! So how could users access the files through ACLs when its owned by root:root 700. 700 means owner only, nothing to group, nothing to everyone else. | 00:04 |
| stephans | I just want to copy the x264 and AC3 streams in to a different container... | 00:04 |
| Coded1 | how do i check what version of drivers I have for a device? I have a rtl8187 usb wifi dongle and the xp drivers show my ap @ 80% signal but in Ubuntu 9.10 it shows at about 30% and dropps packets like mad | 00:04 |
| reportingsjr | I am having issues copying a dvd to my computer (ubuntu 9.10). I keep getting read errors and such. Can anyone help me? | 00:04 |
| looter | clean install is a no go as I dual boot with vista and need access to that install | 00:04 |
| stephans | but it is being difficult | 00:04 |
| Roasted | epinky - Im just trying to understand Access Control Lists for Linux more. | 00:04 |
| sebsebseb | looter: yes you still will have | 00:04 |
| vistro | Anyone know why dd won't write to a floppy? | 00:04 |
| sebsebseb | looter: you can delete your Ubuntu partitions and make new ones | 00:04 |
| jrib | Roasted: ACLs let you add more rules. One way to think of it is you have 770_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ where all the _ represent more ACL rules | 00:05 |
| looter | sebsebseb: you don't think that will cause problems with vista install? they are separate hds .... | 00:05 |
| ibrahimmufeed | billiard_junkee, she said :{finally found the solution! you just have to configure your routing tables after logging into your vpn server.} . then how can I do that? do you have any idea? | 00:05 |
| sebsebseb | looter: it should be fine, as long as you don't delete Vista | 00:05 |
| epinky | Roasted: http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-4-Manual/sysadmin-guide/ch-acls.html, check all the chapter :) | 00:05 |
| duemme | hi there, I have the language set on english but I want to set the write aid to Italian, using the gnome tool I can't, what do I have to edit? | 00:05 |
| Roasted | jrib - so ideally if I want to set up the most secure file server ever, I should have the parent directory owned by root:root with 770 permissions. Then, ACLs would "grant" additional users to access the files themselves. | 00:05 |
| looter | right. perhaps I will give it a try if I can't get things to rollback | 00:05 |

| Roasted | epinky - yeah | 00:07 |
| billiard_junkee | ibrahimmufeed, that is just an example. And the only working one that I can give you... :-/ | 00:07 |
| looter | will it pick up the other hard drive automatically? Or should I save my menu.lst jus to be case? | 00:07 |

| sebsebseb | looter: if you got it some where else, you don't really needed a seperate /home as such. and the 9.04 guided install should be good enough | 00:12 |

| erUSUL | luist: no; matlab is distributed by Mathworks ask them how to get a copy | 00:12 |
| m546 | How do I write a .bin file to a floppy disk? | 00:12 |

| night1ne | Is there anyway to find out who's been on the computer via the logs or something? | 00:12 |
| sebsebseb | looter: ok well obviously you need that some where else, if your going to delete the partition where it's stored | 00:12 |
| erUSUL | m546: dd if=file.img of=/dev/fd0 | 00:13 |
| erUSUL | m546: sudo dd if=file.img of=/dev/fd0 | 00:13 |
| jrib | luist: ask matlab, it's proprietary :). Check help.ubuntu.com/community for a matlab page. But, try out octave which is very similar and Free software. Personally, I'm a big fan of SAGE too | 00:13 |
| sebsebseb | looter: experimenting I have an idea then | 00:13 |
| looter | sebsebseb: its the vista drive that worries. and I already get an "Error 12: invalid device" from GRUB | 00:13 |
| sebsebseb | looter: hmm so right now it won't boot up Vista? | 00:13 |
| looter | sebsebseb: when trying to access that drive. but similar things have happened after the previous two kernel upgrades. | 00:13 |

| sebsebseb | looter: let's find out what version of Ubuntu you are really on | 00:32 |
| eshannon | using Parted to format my drive what label should I use for ext3? GPT? | 00:32 |
| erUSUL | pitch332: heard that some apple AP uses a non standar hex encoding for wep/wpa passwords | 00:32 |
| sebsebseb | looter: you upgraded Ubuntu to 9.04 you mean from 8.10? | 00:33 |
| myk_robinson | can anyone offer advice for tethering a Blackberry Tour with Ubuntu 9.10? | 00:33 |
| billiard_junkee | looter, this computer came with vista. you installed ubuntu on a seperate hard disk. you upgraded and it won't boot. is that right? | 00:33 |
| night1ne | Isn't there a blackberry program in the repos? | 00:33 |
| pitch332 | this is an airport that was purchased less than 3 months ago... so its (to my knowledge) the newest version. at one point, it seems I was able to get a valid IP from the airport, but still no internet connectivity... quite frustrating when trying to set up the ubuntu box as a fileserver. | 00:34 |
| looter | billiard_junkee: in a nutshell yes. the dual boot tut I followed recomended installing vista first. | 00:34 |
| night1ne | Are there any known problems with running Chromium on Ubuntu? | 00:34 |
| sebsebseb | looter: system > about ubuntu | 00:34 |
| myk_robinson | night1ne: there is a program for syncing a blackberry, but i do not see anything for tethering | 00:34 |
| sebsebseb | looter: which version are you on? or do the command | 00:34 |
| sebsebseb | !version | looter | 00:34 |
| ubottu | looter: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell - To know the available version of a package, « apt-cache policy <package> » | 00:34 |
| pitch332 | i know i could switch to a different router and probably be in business.. but everything else in the house is mac except my linux box... and the airport performs like a charm with the macs. | 00:34 |
| night1ne | Ah, tethering..Hmm.. | 00:34 |
| looter | sebsebseb: yes I initially was running 8.10. I upgraded to 9.04 and had problems of similar nature which I ws able to resolve. Now last night I upgraded to 9.10 and am having problems again | 00:34 |
| sebsebseb | looter: your menu.lst says nothing about 9.04 kernels or 9.10 kernels | 00:35 |
| sebsebseb | looter: it says about 8.10 kernels | 00:35 |
| night1ne | I just use the HTC to tether, and and as long as I turn off the wireless, it seems to work fine. | 00:35 |
| billiard_junkee | so, the vista hard disk is attached to SATA0 and ubuntu disk to SATA1? looter | 00:35 |
| night1ne | Not sure about blackberry though. | 00:35 |
| myk_robinson | night1ne: who knows, it may just work, I have a friend coming over to see if we can figure out how to tether hers.. Just trying to do some semblance of research beforehand | 00:35 |
| looter | ubottu: Ubuntu 9.10 | 00:35 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about Ubuntu 9.10 | 00:35 |
| sebsebseb | looter: copy in the out put of the command | 00:35 |
| looter | sebsebseb: I know. How weird is that? | 00:35 |
| sebsebseb | looter: ubottu is a bot a computer program | 00:36 |
| looter | billiard_junkee: correct. | 00:36 |
| sebsebseb | looter: also one that is female apparantly | 00:36 |
| sebsebseb | !gender | 00:36 |
| ubottu | yes, I can confirm I am a female bot :) | 00:36 |
| looter | sebsebseb: I know. I just didn't know who to direct my output from that command to :) | 00:36 |
| night1ne | Does your blackberry run windows mobile? | 00:36 |
| pitch332 | erUSUL: any suggestions on a direction from here. i've typed this insanely long hexadecimal equiv more times than I care to count at this point :-P | 00:36 |
| sebsebseb | looter: copy and paste, or if it's more than a line or two pastebin it | 00:36 |
| looter | sebsebseb: copy and paste what? the output from "lsb_release -a" was Ubuntu 9.10 | 00:37 |
| sebsebseb | looter: ok | 00:37 |
| night1ne | If it does, look for a program called 'internet sharing' | 00:37 |
| night1ne | If it has that, try that. | 00:37 |
| sebsebseb | looter: let's find out out what kernels are actsauly still installed, probably all of them | 00:37 |
| looter | sebsebseb | 00:38 |
| looter | sebsebseb: ok | 00:38 |
| sebsebseb | looter: atsauly that's a bit pointless, let's find out what kernel you are running right now | 00:38 |
| sebsebseb | looter: uname -r | 00:38 |
| kisuke | can any body help me get my scroll working again? | 00:38 |
| night1ne | Scroll in what? | 00:38 |
| linxeh | is there a default xubuntu keyboard shortcut to open the applications menu ? | 00:38 |
| night1ne | Your browser? | 00:38 |
| looter | sebsebseb: 2.6.27-11-generic | 00:38 |
| sebsebseb | looter: that's the 8.10 kernel | 00:38 |
| sebsebseb | looter: that isn't meant to run in 9.10 as far as I know | 00:39 |
| looter | sebsebseb: lol. wtf is going on then? | 00:39 |
| sebsebseb | looter: try not to swear in the channel :) | 00:39 |
| === xod is now known as b0xxy | ||
| looter | sebsebseb: my bad. but that is nuts | 00:39 |
| sebsebseb | looter: I think clean install time | 00:39 |
| zetheroo | looter: you can edit the grub.cfg file ... but its at your own risk .... | 00:40 |
| === sanjana is now known as Kream | ||
| sebsebseb | looter: easier than, going through the kernels you have and removing stuff, and messing around with the old Grub | 00:40 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: no he has the old Grub still not Grub 2 | 00:40 |
| looter | sebsebseb: if you are confident I will try it. I can still mount the vsista drive so I can backup all nessecary files in case I have to rebuild everything from the ground up. | 00:40 |
| zetheroo | sebsebseb: how can he still have the old grub if he has Karmic? | 00:40 |
| Misantropo | i am having "cannot open device hw for ALSA audio (Device or resource busy)" when running vlc alsa:// ¿how do i know which app has alsa opened? | 00:40 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: ,because Grub 2 isn't done on upgrades? | 00:40 |
| bluesscream | gn8 | 00:41 |
| billiard_junkee | linxeh, may try alt+space or alt+esc | 00:41 |
| looter | sebsebseb: so did i actually never upgraded to 9.04 then? | 00:41 |
| sebsebseb | looter: hmm which release to put on, 8.10, 9.04, or 9.10, thinking | 00:41 |
| zetheroo | sebsebseb: oh ok ... good to know ... | 00:41 |

| Kream | I need help getting wifi on my HP Pavilion tx1003au to work. Its supposed to have a broadcom 4312 chip but I can't even see it in lspci - is this normal? | 00:41 |
| sebsebseb | looter: I guess 9.10 even though I don't like it much | 00:42 |
| sebsebseb | looter: compared to 9.04 and 8.10 | 00:42 |
| eshannon | any experts out there on that can help me reformat a drive | 00:42 |
| zetheroo | sebsebseb: then all he should have to do is edit menu.lst ... no? | 00:43 |
| phage | I have a large text document with very few newlines, what program can i use to insert new lines so that the document is wrapped nicely? I don't want a word wrap feature that doesnt insert new lines - i need the new lines so that i can merge two similar docs | 00:43 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: usaully, but | 00:43 |
| looter | sebsebseb: ok. I am going to give it a shot then. | 00:43 |
| sebsebseb | looter: it said you were running 9.04? | 00:43 |
| looter | sebsebseb: what do you mean by it? | 00:43 |
| McLovin | eshannon: how are you formatting? | 00:43 |
| Kream | trying install 9.10 on a laptop, is it possible that the wifi card is not showing up in lspci because I don't have the proper drivers loaded? | 00:44 |
| eshannon | Command line. I am shh into my computer and want to reformat from xfs to ext3 | 00:44 |
| sebsebseb | looter: nevermind | 00:44 |
| sebsebseb | looter: how new are you to Ubuntu by the way? | 00:44 |
| erUSUL | eshannon: sudo mkfs -t ext3 /dev/sdxx | 00:44 |
| m546 | How do you write a .bin to a Floppy Disk? | 00:45 |
| McLovin | Kream:lspci will show all devices wether or not there is a driver present or not | 00:45 |
| erUSUL | m546: told you already | 00:45 |
| eshannon | it says the drive is mounted | 00:45 |
| zetheroo | Kream: not in lspci? | 00:45 |
| sebsebseb | looter: or how long you used for? | 00:45 |
| eshannon | I tried umount | 00:45 |
| Kream | McLovin, thats what i thought. it's not present in lspci. but on the otherhand,it's a troublesome broadcom 4312 one. worked fine in vista until I nuked the windows install | 00:45 |
| mun24 | anybody using subversion here? | 00:46 |
| Kream | zetheroo : ^^ | 00:46 |
| m546 | dd will not work. There is terminal output, but the drive light does not flash, and no magnet turns on, nor motor turns | 00:46 |
| Kream | well, i dont know for sure that it is a 4312 bcom one - thats just the model that this laptop is suppsoed to have. | 00:46 |
| McLovin | Kream: what version of ubuntu are you using? | 00:46 |
| Kream | 9.10 | 00:46 |
| looter | sebsebseb: i have been using various flavors for a few years now. Ubuntu for about 2. I also run TinyME on some older hardware and have Knoppmyth used as a DVR on an old compaq | 00:46 |
| zetheroo | Kream: can you pastebin your lspci output? ... have you ever used Linux before? if you have, has it ever worked? | 00:46 |
| McLovin | Kream: lspci will display thee wifi card model and rev 3 or 4 lines from the bottom of the list | 00:47 |
| sebsebseb | looter: ok well dual booting and partitining shoudn't be that big of a deal then, anyway I can hep you set up a good 9.10 set up no problem, that you can keep on updating for a long time | 00:47 |
| daevski | Hey all, I am trying to get a webcam that identifies itself as "Microdia PC cam (SN9C120)" -- I followed forum advice here ( http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=982471&page=4 ) -- see Cameigons post mid-way down -- and also here is output from dmesg in pastebin ( http://paste.ubuntu.com/325717/ ) -- CAM Still not working in Cheese or Skype and I'm not sure what to do next :( | 00:47 |
| sebsebseb | looter: download the 9.10 CD, 9.10 is a good one to clean install it seems anyway, since then get Ext4 and Grub 2 by default, and also how many people got issues after upgarding from 9.04 | 00:48 |
| Kream | zetheroo: I've used Linux since 1998, havent tried it on this laptop, though, it's a friend's | 00:48 |
| looter | sebsebseb: will this be keeping in mind that I need to do everything I can to maximize my chances of keep the Vista on the other hd? | 00:48 |
| cent255 | When I start ubuntu now, every time I boot I get an error message during the "kubuntu" splash that says "checking filesystem /dev/disk/by-uuid/c4af..." | 00:48 |
| Kream | will pastebin an lspci | 00:48 |
| zetheroo | Kream: ok | 00:48 |
| sebsebseb | looter: Vista will be fine, as long as you don't delete the partition for it | 00:48 |
| McLovin | Kream: ok | 00:48 |
| looter | sebsebseb: yea i ran a google query and it popped up quite a few posts pertaining to upgrades from 9.04 | 00:48 |
| cent255 | Then the splash screen goes away, and i get a message about maintenance of file system failed, | 00:48 |
| looter | sebsebseb: rgr | 00:48 |
| histo | For some reason I can't skip ahead in flash videos on youtube etc... I have the same plugin installed on two different karmic machines it works on one and not the other. I'm at a loss as to where the conflict is? | 00:49 |
| cent255 | it tries to init crypto disks (which i think is my swap partition) | 00:49 |
| cent255 | then hangs | 00:49 |
| histo | I'm using flashplugin-nonfree | 00:49 |
| sebsebseb | looter: maybe something rather odd has happended to you, since apparnatlly you have upgraded since 8.10 | 00:49 |
| wojciechorama | Hi guys, does someone know something abount incjection ?? (Wifi - ubuntu - WEP ) I need to know how to change CHANNEL of wlan0 ? | 00:49 |
| looter | sebsebseb: well I have the 9.10 cd actually. I need a livecd last week and was at a friends house and I was impressed by the new bootup graphic, lol. Soooo I burned it | 00:49 |
| sebsebseb | looter: with it keeping older kernels there as well | 00:49 |
| sebsebseb | looter: or so it seems | 00:49 |
| histo | wojciechorama: use iwconfig to change the channel | 00:49 |
| Meowpup | hi all i ahve just got this error in synaptic what does it mean "W: Duplicate sources.list entry http://wine.budgetdedicated.com jaunty/main Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/wine.budgetdedicated.com_apt_dists_jaunty_main_binary-i386_Packages)" | 00:50 |
| cent255 | It's actig like it's trying to mount an ecrypted partition as if it's not encrypted. | 00:50 |
| mcurran | Does anyone know if you can connect and look though the ubuntu forums from the terminal | 00:50 |
| histo | wojciechorama: iwconfig wlan0 channel x | 00:50 |
| Meowpup | there is no double entry in sourses.list i checked | 00:50 |
| daevski | wojciechorama: look up how to use iwconfig command. SHould be something like iwconfig wlan0 channel 10 | 00:50 |
| wojciechorama | histo luv ya :* thanks | 00:50 |
| luis_ | WTH happens with amsn?! come on i type: Change nick, then i change my nick, i log out, i reconnect and after that, no matter what, my name: "Luis Javier" Appears as the nick, not caring about the nick I typed, is this a glitch???? come on i am tired, this amsn is the most same looking to windows live messenger | 00:50 |
| sebsebseb | looter: oh you like the new boot up graphic, I don't like it, since I had the Ubuntu or Kubuntu screen for 9.04 with text at the bottom saying what the OS is doing when booting up :) well the other computer is 9.04 still, and it has the Ubuntu logo and the text for boot up | 00:50 |
| McLovin | eshannon:http://www.idevelopment.info/data/Unix/Linux/LINUX_PartitioningandFormattingSecondHardDrive_ext3.shtml | 00:50 |
| looter | sebsebseb: it would appear taht way. I obviously horked something in the process of trying to upgrade | 00:50 |
| daevski | wojciechorama: I think that might be exactly it, actually. | 00:50 |
| Kream | this is a detailed lspci of the laptop i'm trying to activate wifi on - http://pastebin.com/f3e8bf459 zetheroo McLovin | 00:50 |
| eshannon | Thanks McLovin | 00:50 |
| Meowpup | McLovin: if you have a terminal baised web browser you can | 00:50 |
| sebsebseb | looter: there's another distro that has a much nicer boot up, and so on, that I will be switching to soon for now at least, whilst waiting for 10.04 | 00:51 |
| mcurran | Hey McLovin - are you the same McLovin that's usually on Mint | 00:51 |
| McLovin | Kream: ill take a look | 00:51 |
| looter | sebsebseb: yea I just thought it was kinda neat looking. I didn't get to play around with it much since all ineeded it for was to mount a badly infected windows partition. | 00:51 |
| Meowpup | mcurran: : if you have a terminal baised web browser you can | 00:51 |
| McLovin | mcurran: nope | 00:51 |
| looter | sebsebseb: which distro? | 00:51 |
| billiard_junkee | looter, I don't know but maybe try changing menu.lst to have 'rootnoverify (hd0,1)' or 'rootnoverify (hd0,0)' under Windows. I guess it cant hurt to try. It seems to me that if you had Vista installed on the primary disk, it would be hd0... | 00:51 |
| Meowpup | he is the same McLovin | 00:51 |
| sebsebseb | looter: we are getting a bit off topic now for this channel, but Mandriva 2010 Gnome | 00:52 |
| mcurran | what is a good terminal based web browser | 00:52 |
| trism | luis_: it could be an issue with the msn service itself, because my nick has kept disappearing this week in pidgin too (I finally had to set it to automatically assign a new one everytime I connect) | 00:52 |
| sebsebseb | looter: Mandriva One | 00:52 |
| looter | sebsebseb: i agree but somehow ubuntu sees its self as the primary drive even though it isn't | 00:52 |
| sebsebseb | looter: I tried to pm you twice earlier, but never got a reply there | 00:52 |
| looter | sebseboh | 00:52 |
| billiard_junkee | and since you know what it is right now, it will be easy to change back. Right now windows is not working, so what are you out if it doesnt work? ;) | 00:52 |
| looter | sebseb | 00:52 |
| sebsebseb | looter: oh right Vista should be the primary drive really I think | 00:53 |
| daevski | Hey all, I am trying to get a webcam that identifies itself as "Microdia PC cam (SN9C120)" -- I followed forum advice here ( http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=982471&page=4 ) -- see Cameigons post mid-way down -- and also here is output from dmesg in pastebin ( http://paste.ubuntu.com/325717/ ) -- CAM Still not working in Cheese or Skype and I'm not sure what to do next :( | 00:53 |
| Meowpup | McLovin: i know you are as i checked you out McLovin in #ubuntu is same as McLovin in #linuxmint | 00:53 |
| mun24 | I ma trying to use subversion and getting error like /svn/db/txn-current-lock | 00:53 |
| looter | sebsebseb: it is. the vista drive is on the secondary ide channel | 00:53 |
| sebsebseb | looter: and it seems to want to be the primary partition and if not well, it might delete Linux partition, that's happended twice to me... ok pm then | 00:53 |
| looter | sebsebseb: ok | 00:54 |
| McLovin | Kream: funny there is no broadcom showing | 00:54 |
| mcurran | Haha sneaky McLovin - Stupid Ikey banned me from Mint | 00:54 |
| mcurran | That kid is a fag | 00:54 |

| varadero | how can i clone my ubuntu installation ? | 01:01 |
| jolaren | but not words | 01:01 |
| sparr | histo: when in a virtual terminal, "DISPLAY=:0 xrandr -s 2" (or any other size that is valid and not current) causes X to crash. | 01:02 |
| knopies | is there a way to call the screensaver? | 01:02 |
| tsimpson | !clone | varadero | 01:02 |
| ubottu | varadero: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate | 01:02 |
| mcurran | knopies: Why not just use the program and select test | 01:02 |
| aero_ | Is this the place to ask questions about ubuntu? | 01:03 |
| epinky | jolaren: oh, I didn't know that, I've been using it with words :( | 01:03 |

| ubottu | aero_: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines. Enjoy your stay! | 01:03 |
| knopies | mcurran, I mean, I want to turn off the auto-screensaver after x-min. and just call it when I go afk. | 01:03 |
| mcurran | yes | 01:03 |
| mcurran | I'm sure there is, I'm gonna look... | 01:03 |
| knopies | thanks mcurran. | 01:03 |
| jolaren | epinky; And that works for you? A guy in #ubuntu-se told me that It didn't work... but he can be wrong | 01:03 |
| aero_ | ok, I just put ubuntu onto my acer aspire one laptop and the wireless internet is ungodly slow, but wired runs fine | 01:04 |
| varadero | tsimpson, are there much easier way ? i plan 4000 copy | 01:04 |
| jolaren | epinky; Are you running it right now? Could you test? If thats not asking to much | 01:04 |
| knopies | aero_, you might want to try scanning wireless networks in range, and see if yours is on a different channel to theirs. | 01:05 |
| tsimpson | varadero: then you'll probably want to create a custom ISO to install from | 01:05 |
| McLovin | Kream: try this. "sudo update-pciids"then run lspci again | 01:05 |
| knopies | aero_, other interference (such as wireless phones) can also affect it. If you think its ubuntu, or a driver issue, then keep asking. Somone must know. | 01:05 |

However, yesterday I moved files with sudo, which caused my filesystem to become full and ecryptsomething to output errors to dmesg as it couldnt write the paged files onto the disk and which caused Ubuntu to become unusable. I freeed up space (221GB are used out of 227) but I cant log back into ubuntu and "d | 01:35 |

| Taim | anarcap: You want to copy the contents over to the parent folder? | 01:40 |

| wojciechorama | mcurran R u there ? | 01:41 |
| ayman | ok but no program do it or on termanl | 01:41 |
| billiard_junkee | anarcap, you can use parted ...it will permanently delete all information on that partition, and the partition itself | 01:41 |

| billiard_junkee | anarcap, make sure that you specify the drive you mean.. e.g. 'parted /dev/sda' | 01:44 |
| Taim | ramakand1a: It's can't hurt, but why not look at the linux kernel code? | 01:44 |
| billiard_junkee | cause if you don't specify, it autos to sda | 01:44 |
| flux_ | can anyone help me with my ubuntu 9.10 I dont get sound.. any ideas? | 01:45 |
| ironfoot495 | Hi I hope someone cananswer a few questions for me. #1 how do I find other Domains on my intranet #2 is it auto like 9.04 | 01:46 |
| billiard_junkee | flux_, are you using alsa? | 01:46 |
| ironfoot495 | because I've upgraded to 9.10 and I can't find it! | 01:46 |
| quesada | anyone here has a tascam 122L external soundcard? Supported by the kernel, but I cannot get karmic to see it! | 01:47 |
| billiard_junkee | ironfoot495, I am running 9.10 and it is auto for me... I can still see both domains at home | 01:47 |
| flux_ | billiard_junkee I have no sound what so evver! In ubuntu hardy heron I had to change my sound settings "playback to ASLA" and it worked | 01:47 |
| flux_ | now i updated to 9.10 and i have no sound | 01:47 |
| ironfoot495 | billiard_junkee: where do you go to accomplish this? | 01:47 |
| billiard_junkee | hrmm, have you verified that your playback device is set to ALSL, flux_ ? | 01:48 |
| anarcap | billiard_junkee - yeah, I was kind of looking for an easier way. Like some gui tool. I guess I'll have to look up parted and see how to use it. | 01:48 |
| flux_ | billiard_junkee when i tried System-Pref-Sound it doesnt show any options for me | 01:48 |
| flux_ | so i cant check the playback settings | 01:48 |

| night1ne | Oh, another compiz question: Is there a tutorial to enable the cube desktop for Karmic? | 01:50 |
| ironfoot495 | billiard_junkee: it's not there but I do have one on applications but it doesn't have the same setup you mentioned? | 01:50 |
| trevorj | night1ne: it takes like thirty seconds | 01:51 |
| trevorj | night1ne: just "sudo apt-get install ccsm" | 01:51 |
| trevorj | night1ne: run ccsm | 01:51 |
| trevorj | night1ne: enable the desktop cube plugin | 01:51 |
| trevorj | night1ne: along with the rotate cube plugin | 01:51 |
| ironfoot495 | billiard_junkee: it just shows aplications I have??? | 01:51 |
| Hexi | is there a way to install Ubuntu on a disk that's already partitioned using LVM? I already have the volumes created with proper proportions for /usr /var etc. and have some logical volumes with data on them that I want to keep, so I'd prefer not to rebuild the LVM and instead just reformat the /, /var, /usr volumes etc., is this possible? The installer CD didn't seem to have LVM in the kernel | 01:52 |
| night1ne | Says that it couldn't find that package. | 01:52 |
| ironfoot495 | this is crazy I really need to get this done!!! | 01:52 |
| Dancho | hello friends | 01:52 |
| trevorj | Hexi: used the alternative installer cd | 01:52 |
| billiard_junkee | ironfoot495, on the top panel, you have "Applications, Places, and System" right? uner places, you don't have 'Network" ? | 01:52 |

| night1ne | No worries. Did it through Synaptic. | 01:53 |
| trevorj | Hexi: in fact, I no longer use the normal cd | 01:53 |
| trevorj | Hexi: =) | 01:53 |
| ironfoot495 | This is still crazy I only have applications and places on the panel. Systems is under Applications????? | 01:53 |
| Hexi | trevorj: ahh ok, the alternate CD is also text-mode? that would speed things up a bit too, I didn't see that disc at first =) | 01:54 |

| ironfoot495 | maybe there is another network that I haven't seen? | 02:01 |
| billiard_junkee | night1ne, maybe try (for the heck of it) right click on the bottom panel, and the choose add. pick 'workspace switcher' add it. Then try what I said above. when you are done, you can just remove it from the panel | 02:01 |
| trevorj | anarcap: I grammoed | 02:01 |

| billiard_junkee | its actually the workspace switcher. thats what you want to do with compiz anyway ;) I am 90% positice thats the easiest way | 02:02 |
| trevorj | night1ne: rotate cube and desktop cube plugins | 02:02 |
| charliebrown | night1ne:and you'll be pleased with things you find | 02:02 |
| anarcap | trevorj - Oh, regex. wow, ok. So does compiz take regular expressions then? is that what you're tellin' me? | 02:02 |
| billiard_junkee | trevorj, he has it, but it has only 2 sieds right now. I had the same problem before | 02:02 |

| soreau | smackdaddy: Which graphics card? | 02:09 |
| knopies | smackdaddy, sounds like a driver thing. | 02:09 |
| smackdaddy | its using the vesa | 02:10 |
| smackdaddy | nvidia | 02:10 |

| rootgui | how do i allow GUI login as root in ubuntu 9.10? | 02:10 |
| soreau | smackdaddy: You want to use nv driver at the very least but probably the proprietary nvidia driver | 02:10 |
| lstarnes | rootgui: do not do that | 02:10 |
| reportingsjr | Can anyone recommend a good multi media device like a cowon s9 or an ipod/itouch for linux? (or is the cowon s9 a great product, I have seen good reviews) | 02:10 |
| anarcap | soreau -- Thanks, I was looking under Rotate Cube. Works! | 02:10 |
| knopies | rootgui, use sudo instead | 02:10 |
| rootgui | lstarnes: i want to, its linux | 02:10 |
| smackdaddy | soreau,how can i load that | 02:10 |
| git__ | rootgui, sudo bash | 02:10 |
| lstarnes | rootgui: you shouldn't. it's linux | 02:10 |
| soreau | cattus: nvidia driver bug most likely. Try a different version of it if you can | 02:11 |
| git__ | rootgui, startx | 02:11 |
| trevorj | rootgui: don't do it. | 02:11 |
| trevorj | rootgui: you're just asking for trouble. | 02:11 |
| trevorj | rootgui: alot of programs WONT run as root | 02:11 |
| lstarnes | rootgui: instead, you should use gksudo for running individual graphical applications | 02:11 |
| soreau | smackdaddy: Sys>Admin>Hardware Drivers | 02:11 |
| megamanx1978_ | Does anyone know anything about cedega? | 02:11 |
| rootgui | that was it, sudo bash && startx? | 02:11 |
| lstarnes | rootgui: no. | 02:11 |
| trevorj | rootgui: don't do it. | 02:12 |
| trevorj | rootgui: seriously. | 02:12 |
| trevorj | rootgui: it's a stupid thing to do. | 02:12 |
| lstarnes | rootgui: that likely won't handle the environment correctly | 02:12 |
| knopies | rootgui, for each individual command you want to run as root, use sudo. for a graphical application gksu/ | 02:12 |
| rootgui | ubuntu used to have a checkbox for that, does that exist in 9.10? | 02:12 |
| cattus | soreau: I did, unfortunately the results were even worse, rendering the box unusable... now most of it works ok but still compiz with extra effects it's a no go :( | 02:12 |
| trevorj | rootgui: it's just like running with scissors, but instead of scissors, it's unpinned grenades | 02:12 |
| bazhang | megamanx1978_, #cedega | 02:12 |
| knopies | trevorj, nice metaphor. | 02:12 |
| lstarnes | rootgui: we don't even recommend logging in as root in a terminal | 02:12 |
| soreau | cattus: nvidia sucks, what can I say | 02:12 |
| rootgui | lstarnes: i know of all warnings, do you know how to do it? | 02:13 |
| lstarnes | rootgui: it would be irresponsible to do so | 02:13 |
| cattus | soreau: eh.. ^^' | 02:13 |
| lstarnes | rootgui: there is probably an option to allow it in GDM for logins, but don't be surprised if that has been removed | 02:13 |
| hedkandi | hello | 02:13 |
| rootgui | lstarnes: it was removed | 02:13 |
| trevorj | rootgui: there are no warnings, I am telling you that it will break things | 02:14 |
| knopies | !hi | hedkandi | 02:14 |
| ubottu | hedkandi: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines. Enjoy your stay! | 02:14 |
| trevorj | knopies: ;) | 02:14 |
| setuid | How do I stop the npviewer.bin Flash plugin from taking up 156% of my CPU? | 02:14 |
| hedkandi | if you look on karmic synaptics there's a package called "unrar" and the description says its "non-free version"!! | 02:14 |
| lstarnes | rootgui: if you need to run an individual graphical application as root, use alt+f2 then enter gksudo programname | 02:14 |
| rootgui | trevorj: i want it my way, i got all warnings from everyone | 02:14 |
| hedkandi | what does that mean? | 02:14 |
| anarcap | billiard_junkee - Thanks for gparted. I didn't know that it worked in linux. I have a liveCD of it. I'm running it now. Thanks! | 02:14 |
| lstarnes | hedkandi: not open source | 02:14 |
| trevorj | rootgui: then do it and make it work, there's an option in gdm to allow it. | 02:14 |
| lstarnes | hedkandi: or not free as in not having freedom | 02:15 |
| rootgui | trevorj: it was removed | 02:15 |
| lstarnes | hedkandi: but it is free as in price | 02:15 |
| trevorj | rootgui: then disable gdm | 02:15 |
| trevorj | rootgui: login to a vty as root | 02:15 |
| trevorj | rootgui: run startx | 02:15 |
| hedkandi | does every package in restricted and multiverse say "non-free" ? | 02:15 |
| trevorj | rootgui: or login as your user, run sudo su -, then run startx | 02:15 |
| lstarnes | hedkandi: a few | 02:15 |
| dman810 | is there anyone that can help me with Network and internet support? | 02:15 |
| trevorj | hedkandi: alot of them, yes | 02:15 |
| lstarnes | trevorj: sudo -i is preferred | 02:15 |
| hedkandi | well I think the terminology needs changing! | 02:15 |
| rootgui | i am installing for a programmer that wants GUI root login; killing X then starting X specially is out of the question | 02:16 |
| trevorj | lstarnes: whats the difference? | 02:16 |
| trevorj | rootgui: as I said, disable gdm | 02:16 |
| lstarnes | trevorj: it just launches sudo and a shell instead of sudo, su, and a shell | 02:16 |
| rootgui | trevorj: that will remove X11? | 02:16 |
| hedkandi | I think a better word would be "non-foss" | 02:16 |
| trevorj | rootgui: it will disable it to start on bootup | 02:16 |
| lstarnes | rootgui: no, gdm just handles logins | 02:16 |
| hedkandi | free usually means money. | 02:16 |
| rootgui | trevorj: yeah, thats out of the question to do that everytime | 02:16 |
| hedkandi | ah well enough from me | 02:17 |
| lstarnes | hedkandi: what about non-libre? | 02:17 |
| trevorj | rootgui: he should NOT be programming as root | 02:17 |
| Zsoci | hi there,my problem is that I used Gparted to format a partition,but I did it as root and I don't have permission to use this partition | 02:17 |
| trevorj | rootgui: he's being an idiot | 02:17 |
| hedkandi | well I dunno if you'd say libre is english | 02:17 |
| knopies | hedkandi, with the whole copy-left thing (open source) free tends to mean freedom, rather than price. So in theory you can still charge for 'free' software | 02:17 |
| trevorj | rootgui: im sorry for my language | 02:17 |
| anarcap | billiard_junkee - gparted worked: easy! fast! thanks again | 02:17 |
| billiard_junkee | anarcap, glad it did what you needed. good little utility | 02:17 |
| trevorj | rootgui: he should learn the proper way of doing things | 02:17 |
| rootgui | is there anyway to enable root login to GDM or do I have to install KDE using XDM? | 02:17 |
| hedkandi | I thought the gpl says you're only allowed to charge for postage? | 02:17 |
| lstarnes | hedkandi: no! | 02:18 |
| trevorj | rootgui: why don't you just run xdm to run gnome | 02:18 |
| lstarnes | hedkandi: that's just if you already have the executable version and want the sources | 02:18 |
| trevorj | rootgui: kde doesn't use xdm anyway, you're thinking of kdm | 02:18 |
| thunderbolt | hedkandi: GPLed software can be sold for whatever value you wish. It only requires that source is distributed with binaries (basically) | 02:18 |
| knopies | hedkandi, if so, thats the gpl. | 02:18 |
| trevorj | rootgui: but xdm will work with both | 02:18 |
| lstarnes | hedkandi: you can still charge for the executables or a copy of the executables with the source | 02:18 |
| rootgui | i wanted a simple solution; thats why i chose ubuntu; maybe the checkbox moved or there are more advanced optiosn somewhere | 02:18 |
| thunderbolt | I thought the GPL required that source be provided for the same price as binaries, but no more. | 02:18 |
| * thunderbolt shrugs | 02:18 | |
| rick__ | who here is using banshee 1.5.2 ?? | 02:19 |
| lstarnes | thunderbolt: it's the cost of delivery for the source | 02:19 |
| trevorj | rootgui: why don't you just run gksudo <app> | 02:19 |
| hedkandi | okay but the gpl says you are allowed to redistribute the software too | 02:19 |
| trevorj | rootgui: it will then run the gui app as root | 02:19 |
| thunderbolt | lstarnes: Thanks. | 02:19 |
| rww | Awesome GPL resource that answers pretty much all of these questions: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html | 02:19 |
| hedkandi | okay | 02:19 |

| ubottu | Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines. Enjoy your stay! | 02:19 |
| trevorj | rootgui: you can run any gui app as root using sudo or gksudo | 02:20 |
| trevorj | rootgui: so I don't understand why he needs to login as root | 02:20 |
| milardovich | I can't enter to #wine. Anybody knows how to run apps without sound? | 02:20 |
| trevorj | rootgui: but xdm will do what you need | 02:20 |
| lstarnes | milardovich: what about #winehq? | 02:20 |
| rootgui | i know; but its a hassle; thats why ubuntu was invented over windows | 02:20 |
| milardovich | ohh thanks lstarnes :D | 02:20 |
| morpheus | oh.. my english too bad... | 02:20 |
| trevorj | rootgui: it's a hassle to type five characters? | 02:20 |
| trevorj | rootgui: I think it would be a hassle to logout and then login | 02:20 |

| progre55 | hi guys, using ubuntu 9.10 and compiz. Sometimes all of a sudden top-panels on all the windows disappear, and I need to reload the window manager. Any suggestions on what might be causing this?? | 02:21 |
| morpheus | trevorj thanks | 02:21 |
| bazhang | rootgui, its not supported nor recommended here. | 02:21 |
| knopies | rootgui, have you tried a google search? | 02:21 |
| rootgui | bazhang: administrative/root login (GUI) is not supported in Ubuntu | 02:21 |
| bazhang | rootgui, you can websearch if you wish to find an answer, please desist asking here. | 02:22 |
| rootgui | yes the results were outdated (before it was removed as a check-able option) | 02:22 |
| morpheus | <rootgui> bazhang: administrative/root login (GUI) is not supported in Ubuntu | 02:22 |
| morpheus | <bazhang> SUPPORTED! | 02:22 |
| rootgui | 02:22 | |
| ubottu | While Google is useful for helpers, many newer users don't have the google-fu yet. Please don't tell people to "google it" when they ask a question. | 02:22 |
| morpheus | only type "sudo passwd" and enter root password 2 times/ | 02:22 |
| rick__ | is anyone using banshee 1.5.2 yet? | 02:23 |
| morpheus | after it you cal login as root | 02:23 |
| rootgui | morpheus: can i login to root as the default user in ubuntu? | 02:23 |
| trevorj | morpheus: gdm will not allow login as root even with a passwd entry | 02:23 |
| morpheus | <rootgui> what's your dist? | 02:23 |
| billiard_junkee | progre55, do you know about Alt-grab? | 02:23 |
| trevorj | morpheus: that is incorrect | 02:23 |
| rootgui | Ubuntu 9.10 | 02:23 |
| morpheus | trevorj it's work in ubuntu 9.10 | 02:23 |
| progre55 | billiard_junkee, nope, what's that? | 02:23 |
| bazhang | rootgui, please desist. | 02:23 |
| alexandre | how do i stop a ping? | 02:24 |
| trevorj | alexandre: ctrl+c | 02:24 |
| morpheus | trevorj i now there from root/ | 02:24 |
| alexandre | thanks | 02:24 |
| rootgui | bazhang: where should i go for ubuntu support? | 02:24 |
| hedkandi | interesting faq | 02:25 |
| billiard_junkee | unlike windows, where you can only grab a window by the title bar, in linux you can grab a window anywhere by holding alt, progre55 ...I have had that happen. WHat it usually is, is that the title bars are behind your top panel | 02:25 |
| bazhang | rootgui, this is not supported nor recommended. Please move on. | 02:25 |
| morpheus | <trevorj> if gdm not allow, you can change it in config/ | 02:25 |
| hedkandi | I don't understand the bit about incompatible gpl-libraries with gpl software. | 02:25 |
| trevorj | morpheus: yeah, i told him that | 02:25 |
| hedkandi | What is the issue here? | 02:25 |
| trevorj | morpheus: but it's not as straight forward with the new gdm and lack of proper gdm-setup | 02:25 |
| hedkandi | I mean gpl-incompatible libraries with gpl software | 02:25 |
| trevorj | morpheus: and I don't even know if the new gdm supports it | 02:26 |
| thunderbolt | hedkandi: It's like being under two contracts that have contradictory requirements. | 02:26 |
| cattus | another problem: can't compile vmware player modules on ubuntu studio 9.10, I know there was an old patch for a previous previous player on a RT kernel, but couldn't find any for vmware player 3, is anybody bumping into the same problem? | 02:26 |
| hedkandi | how can you say that a library is part of a gpl-app | 02:26 |
| morpheus | trevorj in ubuntu 9.10? it's allow to login as root default, but root password not setuped | 02:26 |
| trevorj | morpheus: it is? thats disgusting | 02:26 |
| progre55 | billiard_junkee, oh, thanks. but I dont think my problem is that.. I mean, none of the windows have the title bars.. even the small ones in the middle of the screen | 02:26 |
| thunderbolt | hedkandi: Contract A says "You must put a clause of credit in all advertising and documentation for this product." Contract B says "You must distribute software with source, and add no other requirements." | 02:27 |
| Izinucs | cattus: that's one of the reasons I switched to virtualbox.. none of those issues.. and easier to setup a vm | 02:27 |
| wastrel | there's no good reason to login to gnome as root | 02:27 |
| thunderbolt | hedkandi: Derivative work under copyright is what causes applications to be derivatives of the libraries they use. | 02:27 |
| morpheus | <trevorj> yes | 02:27 |
| thunderbolt | hedkandi: Basically, they treat it the same as if I write additions to a book, and then distribute the new combined work. | 02:28 |
| thunderbolt | They == "the courts" | 02:28 |
| hedkandi | okay so I get a gpl application and I modify it and my modifications use library A. | 02:29 |
| Bardology | Is there a reason ubuntu starts off with a "ubuntu" user rather than "root"? | 02:29 |
| billiard_junkee | progre55, is it the title bar or the menu bar? | 02:29 |
| hedkandi | I must release it under the gpl | 02:29 |
| Bardology | Is this security or convention? | 02:29 |
| hedkandi | but library A demands something else | 02:29 |
| thunderbolt | Bardology: Both. | 02:30 |
| trevorj | Bardology: thunderbolt said it perfectly | 02:30 |
| Lucider | hi can any one help me convert avi file to rmvb file and with subtitles encoded in the file using ubuntu | 02:30 |
| Bardology | Hmm... | 02:30 |
| trevorj | Bardology: it's completely unsupported to login as root. This isn't windows. | 02:30 |
| trevorj | Bardology: login via gui as root that is ;) | 02:30 |
| thunderbolt | hedkandi: Right, and since you have contradictory obligations under the license of Library A and the GPL, you can't distribute it at all. (I think) | 02:31 |
| hedkandi | okay so let's say that the library in question is DirectX 10 | 02:31 |
| Bardology | I don't have a GUI on the server :) | 02:31 |
| hedkandi | and my gpl application uses DirectX 10 | 02:31 |
| william7 | Can someone please tell me why I can't view a webpage located at 127.0.0.1 when I have my /etc/hosts file appropriately configured? The local webpage loads fine when I've got a good wireless or wired connection, but the moment I lose connectivity online, the local webpage no longer loads. I can ping 127.0.0.1 and it works fine etc.. /etc/hosts file entry: "127.0.0.1 mytestsite". | 02:31 |
| Tocaio | dae | 02:31 |
| hedkandi | Do you think DX10 counts as a "system library"? I think it would | 02:31 |
| thunderbolt | hedkandi: It probably does. | 02:31 |
| progre55 | billiard_junkee, all the title bars, and after I reload the window manager (compiz) it all gets to normal | 02:31 |
| Tocaio | alguem BR ??? | 02:31 |
| Bardology | Just a pain that I have to sudo everything because root owns it | 02:31 |
| bazhang | !br | Tocaio | 02:31 |
| ubottu | Tocaio: Por favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Obrigado. | 02:31 |
| hedkandi | okay so let's suppose I put a copy of DX10 on my distribution CD so that people can update to it easily | 02:32 |
| hedkandi | what's wrong with that? | 02:32 |
| hedkandi | 'cos the gpl doesn't like that at all. | 02:32 |
| bazhang | hedkandi, what does this have to do with ubuntu support | 02:32 |

| trevorj | Bardology: you get used it to rather quickly, feel free to use "sudo -i" or "sudo su" to keep a root shell open | 02:33 |
| hedkandi | ok | 02:33 |
| Bardology | trevorj: fair enough, I suppose. I use OS X and I don't generally operate as root there, either | 02:33 |
| bazhang | Tocaio, /join #ubuntu-br | 02:33 |

| kcj1993 | are there any good widget programs other than screenlets and google gadgets? | 03:10 |
| wastrel | progre55: add the indicator applet back to your panel | 03:11 |
| bazhang | !screenlets | kcj1993 | 03:11 |
| ubottu | kcj1993: Screenlets are little widgets for your !desktop. Note you must have a compositing window manager such as !Compiz Fusion, xcompmgr, or KWin to run them. You can get them at http://www.screenlets.org/ | 03:11 |
| bazhang | kcj1993, gdesklets perhaps | 03:11 |
| kcj1993 | bazhang: I will look | 03:12 |

| jenny-devbie | thanks keepi besides touch anything else? | 03:16 |
| jken146 | jenny-devbie: no, cat reads files, as do less and more. grep is for searching. You want things like > and >> and echo to direct stdout to text files | 03:17 |

| jenny-devbie | :) | 03:22 |
| jenny-devbie | thanks guys | 03:22 |
| jenny-devbie | how about the cat and grep command? | 03:22 |
| jenny-devbie | I was reading the man pages | 03:22 |
| jenny-devbie | is that something you could use to? | 03:22 |
| doseryder | i/o redirection ( e.g. < >) is a feature of the shell | 03:22 |
| mcurran | redDEADresolve: That option is in ccsm rotate desktop key bindings | 03:22 |
| keppi | jenny-devbie: to append to the start of a file you can create a new file and echo the contents of the old file into it | 03:22 |
| progre55 | so, I still have this problem.. | 03:23 |
| jenny-devbie | ahh i see cheers | 03:23 |
| keppi | jenny-devbie: grep is a search function | 03:23 |
| progre55 | I'm using ubuntu 9.10 and compiz. Sometimes all of a sudden top-panels on all the windows disappear, and I need to reload the window manager. Any suggestions on what might be causing this?? | 03:23 |
| jken146 | jenny-devbie: cat prints the contents of a file in the terminal | 03:23 |
| jenny-devbie | so i could use the grep function with the >> pipe to modify a file? | 03:23 |
| jken146 | jenny-devbie: less is better for a long file | 03:23 |
| jenny-devbie | is that how it oculd work | 03:23 |
| progre55 | jenny-devbie: you cant | 03:23 |

| Raccoon1400 | can someone remind me what the backports repo is called? | 03:24 |
| jken146 | jenny-devbie: as an example, "cat file | grep foo" will find all the instances of "foo" in the file "file" | 03:24 |
| jenny-devbie | and it will display it | 03:24 |

| webbb82 | i asked this in kubuntu but got noe answer but is the kubuntu netbook remix tunned just for netbooks or is it only have a new app launcher | 03:26 |
| keppi | eNons3nse: have you checked synaptic? | 03:26 |
| eNons3nse | keppi, yes. there is no skype program in there | 03:26 |
| doseryder | jenny-devbie: search and replace what? (you mean the contents of a file?) | 03:26 |
| jenny-devbie | btw what is the word for | ? | 03:26 |
| doseryder | pipe | 03:26 |
| redDEADresolve | eNons3nse, install the medibuntu repository and install skype. or try the deb package provided on skypes website | 03:26 |
| jenny-devbie | yes doseryder | 03:26 |
| jenny-devbie | so >> isn't pipe? | 03:26 |
| jenny-devbie | thanks :) | 03:26 |
| keppi | jenny-devbie: you'd be better off using a text editor like nano | 03:26 |

| jphillips86 | I am using UBuntu on a Macbook and all the graphics look sort of fuzzy. Hurts my eyes to use it. Anyone know why? | 03:27 |
| doseryder | jenny-devbie: certainly :) there are many ways which you could do that. | 03:27 |
| jenny-devbie | without using a text editor? | 03:27 |
| jken146 | jenny-devbie: grep is very useful. One command for finding out about your hardware is lspci. Try tpying "lspci" and you'll see loads of output. But say you wanted to find out about just your graphics card. You might type "lspci | grep VGA" and it'll just display the bits with "VGA" in them. | is a kind of pipe that redirects the output of the first command into the second one (it feeds it to grep in this case) | 03:27 |
| jenny-devbie | oh wow thanks! | 03:27 |
| keppi | eNons3nse: I don't know then, sorry. | 03:27 |
| platius | eNons3nse; try medibuntu.org | 03:28 |
| redDEADresolve | eNons3nse, on the skype site it says 8.10+ meaning anything over 8.10 | 03:28 |
| jenny-devbie | I have to use >> | 03:28 |
| jenny-devbie | two > ? not one ? | 03:28 |
| jken146 | jenny-devbie: sed is a useful tool for search & replace, and related things. But really you want to check what you're replacing most of the time, so a text editor like vim would be your best bet. | 03:28 |
| imatech | what's the best way to remote desktop between two ubuntu vm's? | 03:28 |

| keppi | zcat[1]: it's in synaptic | 03:36 |
| zcat[1] | zilla1: basically the same procedure for if windows screwed it up... easy to fix | 03:36 |

| lhx_ | Hi all... I'm having some booting issues on the standard 32bit 9.10 install cd... I get the black and white ubuntu logo, and then the thing hangs... i've tried mem=4096 and it hasn't helped... other distros boot like a champ on my system. p45, c2quad, 4gb ram | 03:39 |
| zcat[1] | jenny-devbie: once you install ssh package on all your machines, you can run ANY GUI program from any other machine with ssh -X .. it's very powerful! | 03:39 |
| knopies | zcat[1], im gonna do that. | 03:40 |
| keppi | if you do ssh -XC it compresses the data and is faster | 03:40 |
| lhx_ | i second keppiy | 03:40 |
| lhx_ | keppi | 03:40 |
| jken146 | lhx_: check the CD for errors. If it's fine, try the alternate CD | 03:40 |
| draconis | NX is really fast, but the free implementations are not amazing | 03:40 |
| zcat[1] | cool, didn't know about -C | 03:40 |
| lhx_ | jken146: k | 03:40 |
| oddhyena | hello | 03:40 |
| jenny-devbie | oh nice | 03:41 |
| zcat[1] | ssh -X some.other.host nexuiz ;) | 03:41 |
| doseryder | jenny-devbie: is it too much to swallow at once? If you're planning on coding in GNU/Linux, I strongly suggest that learn *one text editor. e.g. vim | 03:41 |
| knopies | jenny-devbie, doseryder I dislike vim. I would rather recomend gedit. | 03:41 |
| zcat[1] | doesn't work too well, neither does watching tvtime over the lan | 03:41 |
| Supaplex | so am I stuck with Debian, or is there a usb install image for powerpc? This G4 mac has no optical drive and only wireless. | 03:42 |
| keppi | ssh -XC username@192.168.0.0 where 192.168.0.0 is your host ip | 03:42 |
| jenny-devbie | vim = vi ? | 03:42 |
| doseryder | knopies: why do you dislike vim? | 03:42 |
| jenny-devbie | checking gedit | 03:42 |
| knopies | doseryder, the interface. it putts me off. I use gedit for its plugins and that Its instinctive for me to understand how to use it. | 03:42 |
| knopies | doseryder, also, gedit has tabs. | 03:42 |
| zcat[1] | I much prefer gedit (in the gui) or nano (in a console) .. never liked vi, and never felt inclined to see if vim reallt is 'improved' | 03:43 |
| doseryder | jenny-devbie: well, vim has a lot of commands which allows you to do everything you would ever think of (plus more) when it comes to editing | 03:43 |
| keppi | gedit needs X to run. If you want to run in a terminal use nano | 03:43 |
| jenny-devbie | powerful | 03:43 |
| spridel | I'm having a problem with GPG keys, could someone help me? | 03:43 |
| oddhyena | i'm trying to install ubuntu 9.10 but a username that used to work causes ubiquity to freak out and give me a popup telling me that the username has an unusable character, and the popup comes back as soon as I close it, so I have to kill ubiquity. I'm trying to use _ in my username. I think it might be my partitioning causing that | 03:43 |
| keppi | vi and vim are not very friendly | 03:44 |
| doseryder | jenny-devbie: I understand knopies and I got different opions on vim, and that everyone has different needs but an editor like vim (or emacs) certainly has its merits. | 03:44 |
| knopies | I just realised, Im knopies with only one p. AAHHHH | 03:44 |
| keppi | gedit only works on gnome | 03:44 |
| === knopies is now known as knoppies | ||
| lhx_ | jken146: no erros on the disk... | 03:45 |
| tulkastaldo | gedit does *not* only work on gnome, it requires gnome libraries, but you can run it w/ any windows manager | 03:45 |
| lhx_ | what would the alternate disk gain me? | 03:46 |
| oddhyena | Does anyone here use _ in their username in ubuntu? | 03:46 |
| keppi | tulkastaldo: well, you know what I mean. | 03:46 |
| lhx_ | <--- mebbe ? ;) | 03:46 |
| knoppies | oddhyena, no, why? | 03:46 |
| keppi | walk up to any linux box and vi will almost allways work | 03:46 |
| tulkastaldo | biggest use for alternatives disk that I know is for the LTSP | 03:46 |
| git__ | tulkastaldo, i use eclipse | 03:47 |
| lhx_ | vi, nano, and pico all tend to be there | 03:47 |
| git__ | i use pxe | 03:47 |
| doseryder | yup | 03:47 |
| git__ | wut's the difference b/w nano and pico? | 03:47 |
| keppi | a few times i've used systems without nano and pico | 03:47 |
| knoppies | Im having trouble with my conky setup. It wont draw on my desktop because Im not using nautilus. | 03:47 |
| lhx_ | git__: not much | 03:47 |
| oddhyena | ubuntu 9.10 won't let me use _ in my username and it causes the ubuntu installer to become unusable | 03:47 |
| git__ | why create nano? | 03:47 |
| wastrel | license issues | 03:48 |
| git__ | pico is alias to nano | 03:48 |
| linuxguy2009 | oddhyena: So dont use _. | 03:48 |
| git__ | pico is commercial? | 03:48 |
| syrius | the icon in the menu for 9.10 is called "ubuntu software center"? is it capitalized? | 03:48 |
| === crohakon|afk is now known as crohakon | ||
| syrius | I just made a custom luncher for it since it didn't get in the menu when upgraded | 03:49 |
| keppi | knoppies: do you have "own_window_type override" in .conkyrc? | 03:49 |
| mezquitale | forget pico and nano, learn to use vi, vi is almost always installed in any *nix box | 03:49 |
| tulkastaldo | syrius, yes, it's capitals (USC) | 03:49 |
| lstarnes | mezquitale: it's usually vim, not vi | 03:49 |
| lstarnes | mezquitale: vi is old and more featureless | 03:49 |
| zilla1 | there's *no* reason I can't use grub2 to boot 9.04, right? | 03:49 |
| lhx_ | agreed. learn to use vi... even if just really simple navigation... | 03:49 |
| linux_guy | !vi | 03:49 |
| git__ | vi is hard to use | 03:49 |
| ubottu | Text Editors: gedit (GNOME), Kate (KDE), mousepad (Xfce4) - Terminal-based: nano, vi/vim, emacs - For HTML/CSS editors, see !html - For programming editors and IDE, see !code | 03:49 |
| jenny-devbie | i've used pico before | 03:49 |
| yog | hi, My computer freezes after few minutes on first start, after restart it works fine for the whole day | 03:49 |
| lstarnes | mezquitale: and it is often just an alias to vim | 03:49 |
| linux_guy | !visudo | 03:49 |
| mezquitale | vi does the job, never bothered with vim | 03:49 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about visudo | 03:49 |
| lhx_ | git__: it's only hard to use if you don't understand its modes | 03:50 |
| keppi | http://osr600doc.sco.com/en/FD_create/vi_summary.html | 03:50 |
| Supaplex | hint, my openwrt router has vi. that's all I need for editing conf's. :) | 03:50 |
| git__ | however it is | 03:50 |
| jenny-devbie | emacs | 03:50 |
| git__ | i only use vi to edit small files | 03:50 |
| oddhyena | linuxguy2009, the installer acts normally when I use any other invalid character, but when I use _ it forces me to killall Xorg | 03:50 |
| aaabbb | cw=Z]Q;GBQ;NdQ;NeQ<K% | 03:50 |
| syrius | is the icon linked to "/usr/bin/software-center"? tulkastaldo | 03:50 |
| knoppies | !ot | 03:50 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 03:50 |
| aaabbb | cw=Z]FDSqNfSpNfQI | 03:50 |
| aaabbb | cw=Z]RH=/ | 03:50 |
| git__ | but never use any vi advanced features | 03:50 |
| yog | how can I start troubleshooting ? | 03:50 |
| git__ | i use eclipse :) | 03:50 |
| mezquitale | lstarnes, is vim installed in ubuntu by default? | 03:50 |
| oddhyena | linuxguy2009, is that a bug or is that just part of the installer? | 03:50 |
| git__ | which does me good when doing big project | 03:50 |
| keppi | mezquitale: no | 03:50 |
| knoppies | ENOUPH ABOUT TEXT EDITORS | 03:50 |
| lstarnes | mezquitale: yes, with a subset of its scripts | 03:50 |
| keppi | lol | 03:51 |
| lstarnes | mezquitale: the vim-full package fixes that though | 03:51 |
| tulkastaldo | syrius, yes | 03:51 |
| aaabbb | cw=Z]QTNKPSC@QTOOPRO@PRNj | 03:51 |
| mezquitale | lstarnes, i use ubuntustudio and dont have vim installed by default, vi is | 03:51 |

| aaabbb | cw=Z]NUQTNcPROOQTAY | 03:51 |
| lhx_ | knoppies: AGREED! Mr. shouty | 03:51 |
| lstarnes | knoppies: it is related to ubuntu | 03:51 |
| syrius | this is the icon I used "/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/softwarecenter.png" tulkastaldo | 03:51 |
| syrius | well I guess that doesn't matter since it looks like the right one | 03:51 |
| linuxguy2009 | oddhyena: Not sure. If it dont take it, it dont take it. | 03:51 |
| knoppies | lstarnes, we were going on about opinions, not support. | 03:52 |
| mezquitale | git__, what is the real question, go ahead and ask, if anyone knows the answer they will surely reply | 03:52 |
| tulkastaldo | syrius, I'm using the brethe icon set so I'm not sure if it modified it :P | 03:52 |

| linux_guy | linuxguy2009, did you rob my name? | 03:52 |
| lstarnes | aaabbb: stop that, please | 03:52 |
| linuxguy2009 | linux_guy: Totally | 03:52 |
| syrius | okay | 03:52 |
| linux_guy | i would like to run the file system check that runs at startup manually. anyone know the command? | 03:52 |
| lstarnes | !fsck | linux_guy | 03:52 |
| ubottu | linux_guy: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 03:52 |
| linuxguy2009 | linux_guy: fsck | 03:52 |
| ardchoille | linux_guy: fsck, but you have to have the partition unmounted | 03:53 |
| kshah | I've set a postconf option to set home_mailbox to Maildir, but my mail is still heading to /var/mail/user which I don't think is compatible with Procmail's setup | 03:53 |
| Sonja | is there a battery bar thingy for ubuntu that displays the number of hours:minutes left? | 03:53 |
| Sonja | instead of having to hover over | 03:53 |
| linux_guy | WOW | 03:53 |
| * lhx_ sigs... another 50 minutes till alternate cd is downloaded. Why the fuck is ubuntu the only distro in the world that I always have trouble booting to install? | 03:53 | |
| linux_guy | can i unmount the partition if it's in use? | 03:53 |
| kshah | any ideas? (/var/mail/user instead of /home/user/Maildir) | 03:53 |
| ardchoille | linux_guy: no | 03:54 |
| linuxguy2009 | Sonja: right click panel , add to panel, add the battery applet and there is a few different format options. | 03:54 |

| kcj1993 | thanks | 04:03 |
| lhx_ | HardDisk: bah. Futurama is the best show ever. | 04:03 |
| draconis | mezquitale, oddhyena is talking about creating a file that contains a whole partition table and disk image | 04:04 |
| lhx_ | Oilut: thanks... i'l check it out | 04:04 |
| iMatter | How can i force unmount a volume in ubuntu? | 04:04 |
| Oilut | lhx_ yeah, the markets from US and Brazil are pretty different, i am not a day trader. | 04:04 |

| lhx_ | Oilut: I swing trade forex and spend half the winnings on toys and half the winnings go into dividend paying equities | 04:05 |
| oddhyena | I want to create a backup of the mbr because it's almost impossible to fix grub with the live disk if something overwrites it because of so many errors | 04:05 |
| mezquitale | draconis, like ardchoille mentioned, we dont mount devices of files, we mount file systems, maybe he is attempting to create a partition on a harddisk | 04:05 |
| iMatter | thanks | 04:05 |
| jenny-devbie | does anyone know what context switches are? | 04:05 |
| Oilut | lhx_ oanda is a website only? They do not have a software? I use www.advfn.com | 04:05 |
| ardchoille | Oilut lhx_ Please take the trading discussion to offtopic | 04:06 |
| mezquitale | jenny-devbie, someone in #java might know or maybe #perl | 04:06 |
| oddhyena | should I just do cat /dev/sda >> file.img? | 04:06 |
| draconis | mezquitale, it sounded pretty clear that he knew how to create a partition on a hard disk | 04:06 |
| Meowpup | is one of the serves down today | 04:06 |
| ardchoille | Odd_Bloke: sda is a device, you need a partition number | 04:06 |
| lhx_ | ardchoille: done | 04:07 |
| Izinucs | Meowpup: us.ubuntu.com security ?? not sure but I've been having problems all day | 04:07 |
| mezquitale | draconis, I will refet you to ardchoille message | 04:07 |
| jenny-devbie | thanks mezquitale | 04:07 |
| draconis | oddhyena, ardchoille: isn't that a bit dangerous? you'd better not have /dev/sdaX mounted | 04:07 |
| ardchoille | Izinucs: try a different mirror? | 04:07 |
| Izinucs | ardchoille: yep.. had to get out of the US.. went to the united kingdom mirrors | 04:08 |
| ardchoille | draconis: if it's not mounted, how are you going to copy files from it? | 04:08 |
| draconis | ardchoille, um.. that was a cat command... | 04:08 |
| ardchoille | draconis: can you cat something that the system can't see? | 04:09 |
| sdk | Question: What are the primary differences between xubuntu and ubuntu? | 04:09 |
| oddhyena | I just want a way to make an image out of a filesystem on my hard disk so I can back it up and then rewrite it to the disk if the original gets messed up (Vista, NTFS) | 04:09 |
| iMatter | How can i fix a windows MBR from a Ubuntu Jaunty LiveCD | 04:09 |
| mcurran | what is lsh-make-seed used for? | 04:09 |
| ardchoille | sdk: the desktop environment xubuntu = xfce, ubuntu = gnome | 04:09 |
| mezquitale | ardchoille, please dont feed trolls | 04:09 |
| keppi | draconis: why not just use tar to make a backup file? | 04:09 |
| draconis | you can most definitely cat from a device file | 04:09 |
| draconis | that's no "troll" | 04:10 |
| mezquitale | iMatter, you dont have a windows CD?? | 04:10 |
| sdk | ardchoille - so besides the desktop environment, no differences? So xubuntu has the same packages, defaults, drivers, etc? | 04:10 |
| iMatter | mezquitale: none with a capable recovery console | 04:10 |
| Flannel | sdk: They use the same repositories, the differences are what packages are installed by default | 04:10 |
| ardchoille | sdk: It's basically the same base system, packages will differe | 04:10 |
| mezquitale | iMatter, so you dont want to fix a MBR, you want to recover data then? | 04:11 |
| Oilut | lhx_ OANDA is a webtool only? do they have a software? | 04:11 |
| doseryder | what's a "Windows MBR"? do you mean want to re-install grub after a windows installation? | 04:11 |
| iMatter | mezquitale: also last time i had issues it never really worked right when i restored MBR ...always had to boot into ubuntu live cd to fix boot.ini | 04:11 |
| iMatter | mezquitale: no fix mbr | 04:11 |
| Oilut | lhx_ sorry, i had problems | 04:11 |
| iMatter | mezquitale: i think i remember someone telling me it was possible to fix a windows mbr from ubuntu long as you have write access | 04:11 |
| sdk | ardchoille - is the differences between packages mostly the desktop environment? or does xubuntu not come with many of the same packages? | 04:11 |
| lhx_ | Oilut: np... /msg me though if you still want to talk trading | 04:11 |
| keppi | xubuntu comes with different packages | 04:12 |
| draconis | keppi, in case it's a disk that you need to use foremost on, and not all that data appears as files | 04:12 |
| ardchoille | sdk: I don't enough about it to be able to give a deep description | 04:12 |
| doseryder | can someone recommend an "avant-navigator-manager" alternative? | 04:12 |
| ardchoille | doseryder: there are several, open a terminal and run: apt-cache search dock | 04:12 |
| doseryder | i mean "avant-window-navigator" | 04:12 |
| mezquitale | iMatter, that is on my list to do, I can do that using the windows CD but not an ubuntu CD, if someone gives you the answer can you e-mail me? mezquitale@gmail.com thanks! | 04:13 |
| doseryder | archet45thanks | 04:13 |
| ardchoille | yw | 04:13 |
| draconis | keppi, especially if you need to recover deleted files (that might still be there) | 04:14 |
| sdk | keppi - is xubuntu more light-weight in terms of default packages? | 04:14 |
| ardchoille | doseryder: see my PM | 04:14 |
| iMatter | mezquitale, ok | 04:14 |
| mcurran | I don't know why people don't do this, but the best way to dual-boot with windows is to keep the MBR in the boot sector and place grub on the linux partition, then you set the linux partition active and add an entry for windows in grub - therefore no mess and nothing to worry about. | 04:14 |
| alabd | Good day every one , which packages should be installed to open a java web base app ? sun-java-bin & sun-java-jre & sun-java- plugin are installed , but firefox can not open a java applet on linux(ubuntu) that firefox can open it in vista of course it is opened in another system with linux debian5, why ? , means that applet can not be opened by other browsers too .. except sun-java-jre and sun-java-bin and sun-java-plugin should any other package be in | 04:14 |
| alabd | stalled ? | 04:14 |
| sdk | Keppi - the website isn't very explanatory | 04:15 |
| keppi | sdk: yes it's pretty snappy and lightweight. I run it on my slower pc's | 04:15 |
| sdk | keppy - do you like thunar? How does it compare? | 04:16 |
| zcat[1] | !java | 04:16 |
| ubottu | To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository | 04:16 |
| zcat[1] | hmm.. | 04:16 |
| mezquitale | mcurran, because grub2 doesnt play nice and sometimes you have to use MBR, it's actually easier to just let grub2 use the MBR, it works! I have tried it and im quite happy with it, if you want to add windows partition in grub afterwards it might be a chore in grub2 | 04:16 |
| === dvz- is now known as jmlady | ||
| mcurran | Well a chainloader entry is usually generated by ubiquity in grub2 anyways | 04:17 |
| keppi | sdk: works just fine for me. Accessing network resources through it is a bit tricky though | 04:17 |
| sdk | keppi - can I pretty much install any regular deb packages in xubuntu without issues? I'm somewhat new to linux, and I'm looking for a pretty simple desktop environment. I like gnome, but I was thinking about trying xfce | 04:17 |
| keppi | sdk: yes, you can get them off synpatic as well | 04:17 |
| mcurran | If you overwrite your MBR and you have a manufacturer's recovery partition for windows, you're screwed | 04:17 |
| Izinucs | mezquitale: mcurran http://www.linuxtoday.com/news_story.php3?ltsn=2009-11-22-005-35-OS-HL-SW for grub2 easy how to | 04:17 |
| ardchoille | sdk: gnome apps run just fine in xfce and vice-versa | 04:17 |
| mcurran | I know how to use grub Izinucs | 04:18 |
| keppi | sdk: gnome is a pig compared to xfce | 04:18 |
| mcurran | mezquitale needs that link apparently | 04:18 |
| mezquitale | mcurran, but is there a reason why we shouldnt be touching the MBR? | 04:18 |
| Izinucs | mcurran: sorry I mentioned it :/ | 04:18 |
| sdk | keppi - what do you think of xfburn? have you used it? Or Ristretto (the image viewer)? | 04:18 |
| sdk | Keppi - [sorry] what do you mean by pig? | 04:19 |
| mcurran | No, feel free to use the boot sector, I just find it easier to put grub in the linux partition and leave MBR alone - That's just my preference | 04:19 |
| keppi | sdk: I haven't burned anything with linux yet. | 04:19 |
| Breetai | help! I have a disk where the file permissions are set to -r-- --- --- and it won't let me chmod them. What can i do? | 04:19 |
| mcurran | Then you could also add entries for linux with EasyBCD if you want also | 04:19 |
| keppi | sdk: gnome uses a lot more resources, and is slow vs xfce it runs slower on older boxes | 04:20 |
| mcurran | I multi-boot usually one windows OS - ubuntu or linux mint - kalyway OS X - and BackTrack - each with their own respective boot loader and can freely jump from any one os to the other | 04:20 |
| Izinucs | Breetai: do a "ls -la <filename" and see who owns it.. if it's other than you then sudo chown <username:username> <filename> | 04:20 |
| mezquitale | mcurran, new users might not know how to specify which partition to install it on, hd0? hd1? If they install in the MBR it will work and it's just fine, advanced users can off course use their own settings but to encourage people to use ubuntu using MBR will be just fine, it's works and it's simple | 04:20 |
| sdk | keppi - I like speed, but what's the trade off? | 04:20 |
| keppi | sdk: one of my xfce boxes runs as a live music streamer and the other runs as an internet kiosk | 04:20 |
| mcurran | Yes, but don't you see how many people where it doesn't work perfectly and then they don't know what to do. | 04:21 |
| keppi | sdk: tradeoff depends on what you require out of the system. I don't really see any downsides to it. Tends to be updated less often then gnome. | 04:21 |
| mcurran | That's why I've been saying ubiquity should install grub to the root partition by default, then there wouldn't be as many problems | 04:22 |
| mezquitale | iMatter, thanks!!!!!!!!!!! | 04:22 |
| alabd | to ue openjdk on firefox should not plugin package be installed ? | 04:22 |
| alabd | to use openjdk on firefox should not plugin package be installed ? like that sun-java6-jre package | 04:22 |
| mcurran | Does anyone know of any kalyway or hackintosh channels/servers on IRC | 04:23 |
| mcurran | I can't find any | 04:23 |
| sdk | keppi - thanks / ardchoille - thanks | 04:24 |
| leaf-sheep | alabd: Not necessary if you have openjdk-6-jre installed. | 04:24 |
| keppi | sdk: no problem | 04:24 |
| ardchoille | sdk: you can always install the xfce desktop on your ubuntu system and try it out | 04:24 |
| LordDragon | mcurran, hackintoshs are illegal and violate the apple EULA for OSX | 04:24 |
| draconis | LordDragon, did he ever claim to be using a Hackintosh? | 04:25 |
| LordDragon | i asked about where to go to find info on hackintosh | 04:26 |
| LordDragon | er he | 04:26 |
| LordDragon | he asked i mean | 04:26 |
| draconis | LordDragon, oh, I didn't read that far | 04:26 |
| alabd | leaf-sheep: thanks how to say firefox not to use sun-java-jre ? remove sun-java-plugin will take affect ? | 04:26 |
| pez2 | yo all | 04:27 |
| leaf-sheep | alabd: Sure, that should be in configuration script. Also, check out "Choosing the default Java to use" in this link. | 04:27 |
| mcurran | So does anybody else want a Sager NP8690 or what? Thing is just plain silly | 04:27 |
| leaf-sheep | !java | alabd | 04:28 |

| msleather | zerg are you here? | 04:28 |
| mcurran | What does pae kernel stand for | 04:28 |
| msleather | anyone know what jockey-gtk is? | 04:28 |
| jonx3 | this might seem like a dumb question, but how can I easily remove folders by date? say I want to delete all the folders in a directory that are >3 days old | 04:28 |
| altf2o | pae allows the kernel to access more memory on 32bit systems. | 04:28 |
| Fezzler | What would make Firefox crash while playing YouTube video after upgrade to 9.10? | 04:29 |
| ardchoille | msleather: apt-cache show jockey-gtk | 04:29 |
| leaf-sheep | msleather: Hardware Drivers. | 04:29 |
| draconis | however, if you have over 4GB of memory, check to see if your system really is 32bit | 04:29 |
| kylo | can someone help me mount and access an encrypted partition to a new installation | 04:29 |
| altf2o | i had several issues with old nVidia drives and old Flash player crashing my browser. | 04:29 |
| mezquitale | !jockey-gtk | 04:30 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about jockey-gtk | 04:30 |
| msleather | umm | 04:30 |
| altf2o | upgraded both, issue solved for me | 04:30 |
| msleather | well it works on this powerbook g4 :) | 04:30 |
| jolaren | When a bug report has status "Uncomplete" on launchpad, what does that mean? | 04:30 |
| keppi | mcurran: pae = Physical Address Extention | 04:30 |

| flexible | hey, is there any reason that my router settings page should take a few seconds to load? | 04:31 |
| keppi | flexible: slow router? | 04:31 |
| === digital is now known as Guest59440 | ||
| flexible | my modem page loads seemingly instantly | 04:31 |
| flexible | keppi: it is a reasonably new one... wireless n... | 04:32 |
| flexible | keppi: of course it is possible, but it seems unlikely.... could it be DNS issues? | 04:32 |
| keppi | flexible: what brand? Routers have built in web servers and if it's a slow processer then it could serve pages slowly | 04:32 |
| kylo | how do i mount a partition that was encrypted in a previous installation, when i mount all i see is "Access-Your-Private-Data.desktop" | 04:32 |
| leaf-sheep | Guest59440: sudo lshw -c network | 04:32 |
| mcurran | what's the other window manager used by compiz - I'm running Metacity, what's the other one again? Isn't there a switch for them two | 04:32 |
| mcurran | fusion-icon maybe | 04:32 |
| jmspeex | Just upgraded to Karmic and so far it seems to behave a lot better than Jaunty. Just one problem though, the "notification popups" are so small I can't read them (and I've got good eyes). Any idea how to make them bigger? | 04:33 |
| lstarnes | mcurran: compiz is a window manager | 04:33 |
| flexible | keppi: netgear, model is wnr2000 | 04:33 |
| keppi | flexible: DNS only affects things going through the router. If you're acessing the router, you should be accessing it directly | 04:33 |

| ardchoille | mcurran: you're soaking in it | 04:35 |
| mezquitale | mcurran, this is ubuntu channel official support | 04:35 |
| keppi | flexible: is it all pages or maybe just the status page? | 04:35 |
| jrtroberts | keppi:? the page is loading slowly? or the internet connection or wireless connection is slow? | 04:35 |
| mcurran | is that why my system is running so slow right now | 04:35 |
| jmspeex | Anyone else is seeing the notification popups in 3-pt font? | 04:36 |
| keppi | jrtroberts: he gets pages from his modem quickly | 04:36 |
| mezquitale | mcurran, what processor do you have? | 04:36 |
| tuxintosh | yep | 04:36 |
| mcurran | I'm embarrassed to say... Pentium II | 04:36 |
| jrtroberts | if this is an isolated inccident then it could be an issue at the isp level, if it is web related... | 04:37 |
| mcurran | 256MB RAM - and they don't match (2x 128) | 04:37 |
| keppi | mcurran: I'm impressed! | 04:37 |
| mcurran | Yes, it only took me 2 1/2 days to compile my kernel the other day. | 04:37 |
| mcurran | :) | 04:37 |
| mezquitale | mcurran, your machine is not slow, it's old, you might want to run xubuntu instead of ubuntu, I have an old pentium II as well and it's just way too old for ubuntu, insteadl xubuntu on it instead | 04:37 |

| spO | i have *.patch files for mplayer, how do i apply patch files? | 04:43 |
| keppi | flexible: are you able to access internet pages quickly? | 04:44 |
| jrtroberts | ubottu: and why not give the people that were cussing the same note... | 04:44 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 04:44 |
| mcurran | I had a dual-boot pendrive but the syslinux config file would get overwritten and then the other distro would no longer boot | 04:44 |
| rastafariant | test | 04:44 |
| mcurran | nobody thinks your intelligent ubottu | 04:44 |
| jrtroberts | ah a bot... | 04:44 |
| rastafariant | woyo | 04:44 |

| flexible | jrtroberts: it isn't an infrequent event, it happens regardless of any activity... and it is interesting as the modem that is behind the router loads fine, as does the other router on the network | 04:44 |
| * altf2o google works great. | 04:44 | |
| Tjah | abbas | 04:44 |
| houdini | I hope someone in here has an idea for me. I just installed xubuntu 9.10 (all updates applied, etc). I'm trying to use Pidgin to connect to my Jabber server (which works for other clients). It fails with the error "You require encryption, but it is not available on this server." | 04:44 |
| Tjah | hahahaha | 04:45 |
| houdini | SSL is available to other clients... so, ? | 04:45 |

| h00k | will duplicity backup /etc without being run as root? I am using deja-dup for my backups, it uses duplicity and I'm running deja-dup as a normal user. | 04:45 |
| rastafariant | woyo | 04:45 |
| jrtroberts | is that a router or an access point? | 04:45 |
| Tjah | HERUWATI | 04:45 |
| rastafariant | i love bob marley | 04:45 |
| flexible | jrtroberts: access point | 04:45 |
| Tjah | heru + wati = wawan | 04:45 |
| jrtroberts | ok access points don't realy have any proccessing power. | 04:45 |
| keppi | flexible: you could run speedtest.net to see if your internet connection is up to par | 04:46 |
| flexible | jrtroberts: no, it is an actual router that has been set up as an access point | 04:46 |
| flexible | keppi: my router says around 13500 kbps downstream | 04:46 |
| jrtroberts | flexible: and the whole network is using the same channel and speed? | 04:46 |
| RedKhan | Hello! Can somebody help a newbie? | 04:46 |
| houdini | my server is running ejabberd on debian | 04:46 |
| flexible | and i have confirmed that when it is running fine i can download at up to 1.3mb/s | 04:47 |
| soreau | ! ask | RedKhan | 04:47 |
| ubottu | RedKhan: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 04:47 |
| mcurran | if I wanted to add this server to xchat how do i do it (irc.osx86.hu) - for some reason you need to do something else besides just add that | 04:47 |
| keppi | h00k: I don't see how it could. You'd need to be root to access some of the files | 04:47 |
| flexible | jrtroberts: the access point is not the cause of this, it was put in place to try and speed up the network... didn't work... but it remains because it can't hurt | 04:47 |
| keppi | flexible: what is your ping time? | 04:47 |
| flexible | to where | 04:48 |
| ShapeShifter499 | I need some help...I have a acer aspire one netbook with ubuntu 9.10 on it and my sound just a few reboots ago stopped working in firefox and wine (not sure if any other apps/games are affected) what do I do to fix it? | 04:48 |
| keppi | flexible: on the speed test | 04:48 |
| h00k | keppi: eThat is what I was thinking, although it has reported nothing regarding this. perhaps i'll file a bug about prompting for root password when accessing things the normal user doesn't have acces to. | 04:48 |
| kcj1993 | Is there any way to configure notify-osd? | 04:48 |
| flexible | oh i don't remember | 04:48 |
| flexible | i tried it yesterday in fact, and it never even completed | 04:48 |
| keppi | h00k: you could run it as a service that runs with root privilages | 04:48 |
| flexible | and it said only about 3 mbps | 04:48 |
| h00k | keppi: I suppose, yeah. | 04:48 |
| flexible | so i clearly have a problem | 04:48 |
| jrtroberts | flexible: how is it going to speed up the network? if you put a wireless n access point in a wireless G network, all devices not spcifically set to work on N onlly are still going to run on G or B, whatever the slowest link is... | 04:49 |
| keppi | flexible: ping should be in "ms" | 04:49 |
| RedKhan | I updated my 8.10 to 9.10 through internet and now it won't start up. Right before the login screen comes a screen with a distorted ubuntu logo and that's all... | 04:49 |
| kcj1993 | Well is there? | 04:49 |
| unkmar | RedKhan: cool. you got a foto of that? I want to see some distortaion. | 04:50 |
| RedKhan | Sorry, 8.10 to 9.04 | 04:50 |
| jrtroberts | flexible: I am assuming that you know the ip address of the netgear access point, pinging it from a terminal and report the time in ms. | 04:50 |
| kcj1993 | hello? | 04:50 |
| jrtroberts | if that is also slow then the LAN is slow... | 04:50 |
| h00k | !hi | kcj1993 | 04:50 |

| rickasaurus | this is so frustraiting | 04:50 |
| ShapeShifter499 | ok I just tried rhythmbox and it plays my music so I think its just firefox and wine so far | 04:50 |
| rickasaurus | sound works everywhere except flash | 04:51 |
| kcj1993 | anyone? | 04:51 |
| pubuntu | ሀሀ | 04:51 |
| ShapeShifter499 | So what do I do? | 04:51 |
| RedKhan | probable can make one, how to send it to you? | 04:51 |
| keppi | kcj1993: ?? | 04:52 |
| flexible | jrtroberts: most of them were about 0.95ms, however it spiked a few times to between 1.3ms and 3.5ms | 04:52 |
| flexible | jrtroberts: and that was to my router | 04:52 |
| jrtroberts | ok then you lan is the issue, there is a slow link some where | 04:53 |
| keppi | flexible: that sounds fine | 04:53 |
| jrtroberts | when it spikes. | 04:53 |
| kcj1993 | Is there any way to configure notify-osd? | 04:53 |
| jrtroberts | if that is what is causing the pages to load slowly anway | 04:53 |
| jrtroberts | from the netgear... | 04:53 |
| jrtroberts | the router ms is definately in norms | 04:53 |
| flexible | could the fact that my modem is on 192.168.1.1 whilst my router is on 10.0.0.1 be an issue? | 04:53 |
| altf2o | flexible: that will cause some issues. | 04:54 |
| Meowpup | E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (2 No such file or directory) E: Unable to lock the list directory" | 04:54 |
| jrtroberts | What kind of port does the modem connect to? | 04:54 |
| madhumitha | I just brought up ubuntu 9.10 on my laptop, every thing worked fine, but my USB mouse and key board will not work, can any one help? Thanks for your time. | 04:54 |
| flexible | and could the fact that i've a dhcp server enabled on both be an issue? | 04:54 |
| keppi | flexible: sure it's not the other way around? | 04:54 |
| jrtroberts | if the modem is connected to a WAN Port, then NAT will deal with the network difference. | 04:54 |
| flexible | what kind of port? eh? it is an adsl modem, connecting to the phone line and then into the wan port ont he router | 04:54 |
| Meowpup | hey i got this error is it something to do with the ubuntu server being down?? " sudo apt-get update E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (2 No such file or directory) E: Unable to lock the list directory" | 04:54 |
| unkmar | flexible: that will really mess things up. | 04:55 |
| altf2o | for me i turned off DHCP on both my Linksys router and Airport Express WAP essentially making them more like "switches." Then all devices got their IPs from the single router on my network (also DSL modem) and now everything is on 192.168.0.x and can speak. | 04:55 |
| microlith | wow | 04:55 |
| flexible | unkmar: what will? | 04:55 |
| * altf2o to one another | 04:55 | |
| keppi | unkmar: why? sounds right to me | 04:55 |
| unkmar | flexible: DHCP on to devices on the same network, as in, hub/switch. | 04:55 |
| flexible | so i should turn DHCP and make everything static then? | 04:56 |
| unkmar | s/to/two/ | 04:56 |
| meatcar | Let's say, hypotheticaly I was interested in contributing to the software community, ubuntu or otherwise, coding wise, where can I start? | 04:56 |
| jrtroberts | flexible.: it works like this the phone line to the DSL Modem/Router (since it offers DHCP) which connects to the router's WAN link | 04:56 |
| flexible | meatcar: c | 04:56 |
| iMatter | Is it possible to install grub to windows partition? | 04:56 |
| unkmar | flexible: sorry, I was thinking, DHCP serving. not Automatic IP aquiring. | 04:56 |
| altf2o | just turn off DHCP from any other routers internally. You only need one device (typically your DSL modem\router or Cable modem\router) to act as a DHCP server | 04:56 |
| iMatter | Because I don't have ubuntu installed, and I don't really like windows bootloader | 04:56 |
| jrtroberts | ISP offers an IP address to the dsl modem. | 04:56 |
| HyperHacker | http://www.linux-mips.org/wiki/Toolchains found my MIPS assembler... ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mipsdev --target=mips-unknown-linux-gnu --disable-werror | 04:57 |
| meatcar | No, i mean I know coding, but i want to do something usefull. | 04:57 |
| flexible | jrtroberts: that is how i've got it set up | 04:57 |
| unkmar | meatcar: the easies it to just hang out here and help those in need. | 04:57 |
| jrtroberts | the dsl modem NAT's the Public IP address to the private 10 network | 04:57 |
| jrtroberts | the router you are using then NAT's the 10 network to the private 192.168.1 network | 04:57 |
| jrtroberts | it is all gravy | 04:57 |
| jrtroberts | nothing is really wrong | 04:57 |
| flexible | i've got NAT disabled on one of the devices though | 04:57 |
| jrtroberts | then you need to enable it on both | 04:58 |
| microlith | anyone else had ubuntu 9.10 panic when trying it out in VMWare 6.5? | 04:58 |
| ShapeShifter499 | now its just wine with the sound problems | 04:58 |
| flexible | then leave DHCP server enabled on both? | 04:58 |
| jrtroberts | yes | 04:58 |
| jrtroberts | or give the wan link on the router a static ip that matches the subnet of the dsl modem. | 04:58 |

| git__ | hi jenia | 04:59 |
| neurodrone | anyone knows if its possible to load a "root.disk" while ubuntu is running? | 04:59 |
| jrtroberts | and you don't want the dsl modem and the router to be on the same subnet, that will cause issues, unless you use VLSM | 04:59 |
| leaf-sheep | Was there a new/updated solution for those using amd64 + Flash 10? Seems like there are some recurring issues with flash not registering mouse clicks for me (lately). | 04:59 |
| flexible | jrtroberts: tried that yesterday but it didn't change, in fact i could access it from 10.0.0.1 and 192.168.1.2 | 04:59 |

| neurodrone | leaf-sheep: try if 1. right click on the flash 2. double click on it .. works?! | 05:00 |
| leaf-sheep | neurodrone: It does work. How about popping out of the browser (Hulu) and whatnot? It stayed in the screen. | 05:00 |
| dreamcage | hi can someone tell me a webdesign software for me to use here in ubuntu? | 05:00 |
| neurodrone | leaf-sheep: if you can de-grade back to older version or something | 05:00 |
| leaf-sheep | I recently replaced compiz with metacity. Will see what's happening. | 05:00 |

| jrtroberts2 | flexible: don't worry about the 10.0.0.0 network on the dsl/modem... just turn on NAT on the Modem and the Router and that should work just fine. | 05:04 |
| jrtroberts2 | flexible: and DHCP on both won't hurt. | 05:04 |
| gamerguy26 | oh ok so i need a graphics card to use it . instead of integrated | 05:04 |

| gamerguy26 | i'm about 2 days new to linux | 05:06 |
| Tekk1 | lstarnes: I don't see why not | 05:06 |
| lstarnes | Tekk1: do you just need main and not the others? | 05:06 |
| jrtroberts2 | flexible: that just lets machines outside of your network connect, it opens any port that any other machine wants | 05:07 |
| lhx_ | jrtroberts2: you don't have a dad named bill do you? | 05:07 |
| Tekk1 | lstarnes: just main | 05:07 |

| dreamcage | Tekk1, of course, but when i say easy to draw i mean i could use the mouse... i am not a html expert and i need some fast previews | 05:08 |
| JPSman | is it possible to try out other windows managers without closing gnome? | 05:08 |
| unkmar | jrtroberts2: will he need to use iptables to do that? | 05:08 |
| microlith | hmm | 05:08 |
| microlith | whatever kernel 9.10 shipped with does not like it when vmware tries to be helpful | 05:09 |
| jrtroberts2 | unkmar: iptables is for linux... | 05:09 |
| Tekk1 | Tekk1: it's not frontpage or dreamweaver, but it works great when you learn the stuff | 05:09 |
| jrtroberts2 | portforwarding on the router is self contained. | 05:09 |
| Tekk1 | dreamcage: no, it's not what you're looking for then | 05:09 |
| unkmar | JPSman: yeah, do remote X from another system. | 05:09 |
| lstarnes | Tekk1: you might also want to add the updates and/or security repos | 05:09 |
| princezuda | Hey quick question... isn't the setup connection multiverse in ubuntu to download things that may break laws in some countries? Reason I'm asking is because flash player used multiverse to install.... which is odd since it is legal to use the flash player. | 05:09 |
| jrtroberts2 | if he was running a linux server for a router then he would use iptables, since that is effectively a catch all access list for linux systems. | 05:09 |
| Tekk1 | lstarnes: no, I use an ubuntu based distro and our main has been down for a while, everything else has been up | 05:09 |
| chompy | is there a program that will rip content off of dvds? That I own. | 05:10 |
| unkmar | JPSman: I don't suggest it. But you can. You can keep both gnome and have another windom manager installed at the same time. then choose which to use. | 05:10 |
| dreamcage | Tekk1, do you have another option for me to use? suggestions? (dreamweaver like programs) | 05:10 |
| jrtroberts2 | unkmar: that answer your question? | 05:10 |
| Tekk1 | dreamcage: no, I think things like that are an abomination personally... | 05:10 |
| JPSman | unkmar: any way to do it on the same computer? | 05:10 |

| unkmar | jrtroberts2: yes you answered my question. | 05:12 |
| rickasaurus | now how do I make those settings the global default | 05:12 |
| princezuda | Okay so isn't the use of multi-verse illegal? | 05:12 |
| uncleBez | dreamweaver back like 8-10 years ago was a great tool. since then its more trouble than its worth. | 05:12 |
| lstarnes | princezuda: no | 05:13 |
| unkmar | JPSman: not that I know of. Maybe someone else knows more than I do. | 05:13 |
| uncleBez | is code indenting for a start is ugly and so hard to configure! | 05:13 |
| JPSman | unkmar: thank you :OD | 05:13 |
| lstarnes | princezuda: if it were illegal, it wouldn't be an official part of ubuntu | 05:13 |
| Meowpup | lstarnes: ok so in ubuntu 9.04 i cant do "sudo apt-get update" without the error. has it been updated for karmic ot something now | 05:13 |
| jmspeex | OK, I think I've found out why my notifications end up being unreadable. Apparently, there's some bit of moronic code in the font preference and when I set my application font size to "10.5" then the noticication code only sees the 5 and give me notifications in 5pt | 05:13 |
| lstarnes | princezuda: it's legal stuff that isn't freely licensed | 05:13 |
| princezuda | hmm... I thought it was to download decoders and such that breaks parts of some countries laws. Reason I'm asking is because flash was downloaded via it. | 05:14 |
| lstarnes | Meowpup: try using file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock | 05:14 |

| jlederman | what do I do when ssh tells me "no route to host" ? | 05:14 |
| lstarnes | princezuda: you're probably thinking of the medibuntu repos | 05:14 |
| ysj_ | hello, freshman test | 05:14 |
| lstarnes | jlederman: check your routing | 05:14 |
| unkmar | jlederman: give up and find another route. | 05:14 |
| unkmar | jlederman: are you sure the ssh server is running? | 05:14 |
| jlederman | unkmar, nope i'm really new to this. I'm trying to ssh into my palm pre from my computer. I have the necessary components installed | 05:15 |
| git__ | anyone here has a blackberry? | 05:16 |
| unkmar | jlederman: I see. Hmm, palm pre. fancy toy. first thought, has it been rebooted. As in turned off and on again. i don't know if that is needed, but it can't hurt. | 05:17 |
| unkmar | jlederman: do you know the pre's ip? | 05:17 |
| git__ | where do you get ssh app for blackberry? | 05:17 |
| jlederman | unkmar: yep i've tried both the local and wan ip address. the local one returned the "no route ..." and the wan is just sitting.. like its working but no results yet | 05:18 |
| princezuda | I have a blackberry. | 05:18 |
| princezuda | git: | 05:18 |
| princezuda | I connect my blackberry to my computer via usb and ubuntu reads it as another hard drive and charges it at the same time. | 05:19 |
| jlederman | unkmar, i'm really just not familiar enough with the terminal commands for ssh yet, and the manual is rather large (just started tinkering with all this this afternoon) | 05:19 |
| unkmar | jlederman: I'd only try the local. | 05:19 |
| unkmar | I'd do the wan after I new the local was working. much faster reject time. | 05:19 |
| jlederman | exactly | 05:19 |
| jlederman | well, either way I get the no route to host. so that means something is not running? namely, whatever it is on the phone that needs to be turned on | 05:20 |
| Meowpup | lstarnes: how do i get apt-get update to do that | 05:20 |
| jlederman | unkmar: oh snap i tried again and it gave me authenticity check rather than error... | 05:21 |
| lstarnes | Meowpup: it's a terminal command | 05:21 |
| jlederman | permission denied lol | 05:21 |
| unkmar | jlederman: now you are down to getting the user/pass correct or a keypair. | 05:21 |
| lstarnes | Meowpup: file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock | 05:21 |
| jlederman | unkmar: correct. I know how to use the keygen, but am not sure about getting a duplicate on the phone.. | 05:22 |
| jlederman | unkmar: it would be incorrect to make them separately on the phone and the pc, yes? i've read that it has to be copied into a directory | 05:22 |
| jrtroberts2 | alright, I am starting to feel even better about taking all of these CISCO classes... | 05:22 |
| altf2o | jrtroberts2: what are you going for? | 05:23 |
| unkmar | jlederman: I don't remember the exact process. but it boils down to a public/private key pair. Gotta have the public in one place and the private in the other. | 05:23 |
| Meowpup | lstarnes: file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock | 05:23 |
| Meowpup | /var/lib/apt/lists/lock: ERROR: cannot open `/var/lib/apt/lists/lock' (No such file or directory) | 05:23 |
| lstarnes | Meowpup: then that file does not exist | 05:23 |
| unkmar | jlederman: both are generated at the same time using the same system. phone or computer. | 05:23 |
| cxo | When I do man stdio.h, it says no man page found, why not? Fedora has a man page for that | 05:23 |
| jrtroberts2 | right now an AAS in Network Specialist, and then a BASIT in netowrk management, and then a MBA in Computer Science. | 05:24 |
| lstarnes | Meowpup: use sudo touch /var/lib/apt/lists/lock | 05:24 |
| altf2o | very nice... | 05:24 |
| jrtroberts2 | Currently I am taking CCNP classes... | 05:24 |
| jrtroberts2 | just one more after this and and Econ class and My AAS is finished... | 05:24 |
| lstarnes | Meowpup: thrn use sudo chmod 0640 /var/lib/apt/lists/lock | 05:24 |
| Meowpup | lstarnes: chmod: cannot access `/var/lib/apt/lists/lock': No such file or directory | 05:25 |
| lstarnes | Meowpup: you didn't use touch | 05:25 |
| altf2o | congrats. I've long since established i'm not good in school, i learn better on my own. I've recently started studying for my CCNA. So far not to bad, although we'll see how these 'simulators' stack up to real equipment i would prob. get in a class. | 05:26 |
| Meowpup | ls i used to be able to update fine now i know i have not deleated that file is there a way of restoring it | 05:26 |
| Meowpup | the origional | 05:26 |
| lstarnes | Meowpup: yes | 05:26 |
| lstarnes | Meowpup: by using touch | 05:26 |
| lstarnes | Meowpup: it is always an empty file when it does exist | 05:26 |
| pnema | HI all, I freed up some space on a new partition, does someone have a good link that states how to move an existing file system onto a new partition (using 9.10) | 05:27 |
| jrtroberts2 | altf2o: actually packet tracer is as good as the real equiment in about 85-90 percent of CCNA related scenarios. | 05:27 |
| Meowpup | lsttouch manually doing it | 05:27 |
| jlederman | unkmar: yeah, I think i have to copy it. ssh-keygen man says "The contents of this file should be added to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys on all machines where the user wishes to log in using RSA authentication. " | 05:27 |
| Meowpup | lstarnes: touch manually doing it | 05:27 |
| jrtroberts2 | my only recommendation is that you get used to using the console cables and termial app in the pc desktop... | 05:27 |
| lstarnes | jlederman: just copy the contents of your ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub into the server's into ~/.ssh/authorized_keys | 05:28 |
| jrtroberts2 | if you are not using packet tracer or the CISCO official Cirriculum, then I am not sure what to tell you. BOSON makes their own version of the cisco IOS with limited capabilities. | 05:28 |
| lstarnes | jlederman: there is an way to do that remotely with one command. I think it is cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | ssh USER@HOST "tee -a ~/.ssh/authorized_keys" | 05:28 |
| lstarnes | *a way | 05:29 |
| mobilecc | howdy | 05:29 |
| jrtroberts2 | The biggest thing you will miss out on not using real equiment is the way it looks and feels and responds. actually hooking up cables, and having to verify patch cable types... | 05:29 |
| jlederman | lstarnes: ahhh ok thank you | 05:29 |
| Out_Cold | i am loving the xrandr ease of use now... used to be such a pain trying to set up an extended desktop onto the TV... | 05:29 |
| altf2o | gotcha... Well my work has the Cisco library for free so i've been reading the PDFs. Just noticed i get 40% off at ciscopress.com so i will be using the Cisco material for sure. I'll have to check into packet tracer | 05:29 |
| mcurran | wow the backtrack guys don't talk much | 05:30 |
| jrtroberts2 | packet tracer is a dream... | 05:30 |
| Out_Cold | mcurran, they have their days... and they don't usually answer stupid questions | 05:30 |
| jrtroberts2 | learn about simulation mode and you can inspect packets on a hop by hop basis... you can look at the pdu's and see what changes are made from device to device. and it will even allow you to run quizes on what is happening at the various layers of the OSI stack, or TCP/IP, | 05:31 |
| DigitalKiwi | Out_Cold: such as? | 05:31 |
| Out_Cold | DigitalKiwi, such as how do i crack my neighbour's WEP ;) | 05:32 |
| DigitalKiwi | lawl | 05:32 |
| DigitalKiwi | ubuntu forums has that guide! | 05:32 |
| Out_Cold | and so do several other forums.... but it's not legal | 05:32 |
| altf2o | nice | 05:32 |
| jrtroberts2 | alft2o: if you register for a class at cisco.netacad.net and take one class and pass it then you can register as an alumni, which gives you access to all cisco material in ccna and ccnp... | 05:33 |
| DigitalKiwi | they disguise it as a "how do i crack my own wep" post | 05:33 |
| dAlfa89_ | WEP is pretty easy, WPA on the other hand.. ): | 05:33 |
| Josti | Hello! I would need some help with Ubuntu and touchscreen | 05:33 |
| Shentino | Cracking your own wep though is a good idea...it shows you how crappy it is :) | 05:33 |
| Out_Cold | dAlfa89_, it's possible with a lot of GPUs | 05:33 |
| Shentino | ditto for WPA1 | 05:33 |
| MenZa | !details | Josti | 05:33 |
| ubottu | Josti: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 05:33 |
| Josti | I cant seem to calibrate my touch screen | 05:33 |
| Shentino | IIRC they found a hole in that one | 05:33 |
| maco | dAlfa89_: meh flood the AP for force a reassociation....WPA is a one-packet attack | 05:33 |
| jrtroberts2 | also if you pass the CCNA semester 4 final exam with like an 80% or above on your first try, then you get a discount voucher for taking the exam ... | 05:33 |
| maco | s/for/or/ | 05:33 |
| Shentino | so go with WPA2 with AES | 05:33 |
| dAlfa89_ | WPA-PSK here | 05:34 |
| Silent_Echo | my router dosnt need a password -.- i live out in the middle of nowhere... | 05:34 |
| jrtroberts2 | but that only matter if you are going to pay for an academy class... | 05:34 |
| altf2o | nice, that's awesome. Thank you. | 05:34 |
| Out_Cold | Shentino, just change your password every few weeks if you are that paranoid | 05:34 |
| Josti | I have a eGalax TouchScreen but i cant seem to calibrate it right | 05:34 |
| Meowpup | is one of the serves down today | 05:35 |
| smackdaddy | does anyone know of a good web based email app, that lets users create their own name/pass kind of like yahoo/hotmail. ? | 05:35 |
| Shentino | I'm just remarking on WPA1's flaws. Rumor has it that it's just as bad as WEP | 05:35 |
| jrtroberts2 | you may need to see if you have to take the class online though, as usually you have to register with the cisco academy through a certified partner school... | 05:35 |
| Shentino | Personally, I just use IP reservations to lock everyone else out | 05:35 |
| jrtroberts2 | but check it out... | 05:35 |
| Shentino | then if something else tries to spoof my MAC I know something is screwy. | 05:36 |
| ctmjr | my neighbor was stealing my wifi till i gave him a printout of his bank statement | 05:36 |
| argentino | i do sudo dd if=/dev/sdb1 of=OS/ubuntu-UNR.iso to burn de iso into the pendrive but i doesnt copy anything am i typing it ok? | 05:36 |
| jrtroberts2 | and I have heard that the CCNA is the hardest exam out of all the CISCO exams | 05:36 |
| DigitalKiwi | ctmjr: lmao | 05:36 |
| DigitalKiwi | nice | 05:36 |
| Josti | I have a eGalax TouchScreen but i cant seem to calibrate it right | 05:37 |
| Out_Cold | yea... i suppose people should mind what they do with illegal bandwidth | 05:37 |
| Out_Cold | i had a router set up as a honey pot before | 05:37 |
| jrtroberts2 | well night all... | 05:37 |
| altf2o | really? I really was looking at CCNA Security and perhaps CCNP. Not sure from there. My passion has always been in programming, but my job opened me up to networking which is very fascinating. | 05:37 |
| RyanJ | If I want something to happen automatically (launch a program) when I connect a USB Flash Drive, what should I do? | 05:37 |
| altf2o | thanks for the tips, appreciate it. | 05:37 |
| === richard is now known as Guest74142 | ||
| maco | dAlfa89_: WPA1 or WPA2? if 1, i hope youre using AES not TKIP. WPA+TKIP = 12 minuts | 05:37 |
| unkmar | RyanJ: depends on WHEN you want it to happen. | 05:38 |
| alabd | leaf-sheep: sun-java-jre is installed should be removed for firefox detecting java from openjdk ? | 05:38 |
| jrtroberts2 | well CCNA is hard because it covers such a broad range of information compared to the other exams... they just get more and more specific. | 05:38 |
| unkmar | RyanJ: I am not sure where you would trigger that action. | 05:38 |
| elendal__ | BOOYA! | 05:38 |

| Out_Cold | hemant_, it's a usb flash? | 05:43 |

| Out_Cold | well then i would only assume that you would install it like any other disk and use the minimal installation setup and select that disk | 05:44 |

| zcat[1] | changing the login screen in karmic... can it be done? | 05:57 |
| maco | Silent_Echo: the window manager i use does not have window borders, title bars, etc, because it does not work that way | 05:57 |
| sharpen047 | does anyone know why kubuntu will only play sound through one application at a time?(seen confirmed bugs but no real solution) | 05:57 |
| Out_Cold | sharpen047, it's an alsa issue i think where each app takes full control of your sound... i don't think there is a solution yet | 05:57 |
| Flare-Laptop | zcat[1]: Yes, with gnome-theme-manager | 05:57 |
| Shentino | pulseaudio? | 05:58 |
| Shentino | *ducks* | 05:58 |

| next_jerk | hi | 05:58 |
| Flare-Laptop | zcat[1]: hold on | 05:58 |
| maco | zcat[1]: gnome-appearance-properties you mean? | 05:58 |
| Silent_Echo | maco: yeah...i got introduced to emerald and i just kinda stuck with it, never gave me problems so i just blindly stuck with it XP | 05:58 |
| \\`00t | So, on gnome-look (along the left side) which option do I pick so it'll work with the "Appearence Preferences" applet? | 05:58 |
| maco | sharpen047: kubuntu doesnt include pulseaudio, so go ahead | 05:58 |
| Shentino | To be honest I always found alsa to be quite willing to let multiple apps use the sound at the same time | 05:58 |
| murcherson | is pulseaudio still tied in to desktop? | 05:58 |
| Out_Cold | sharpen047, pulseaudio uses alsa as a higher lever stack | 05:58 |
| maco | Silent_Echo: thereve been attempts to remove it from the archive since development stalled a long time ago | 05:59 |
| maco | murcherson: in gnome, yes | 05:59 |
| Shentino | so pulse -> alsa -> sound card | 05:59 |
| Flare-Laptop | zcat[1]: idk | 05:59 |
| maco | murcherson: more and more each realease | 05:59 |
| zcat[1] | LOGIN screen... not in gnome-appearance-properties | 05:59 |
| sharpen047 | Shentino, so if i uninstall PA will it fall back to alsa? or is there more work Out_Cold | 05:59 |
| murcherson | hmmm | 05:59 |
| Josti | Hello! Could anyone help me with my egalax touch screen ? Cant seem to calibrate it | 05:59 |
| maco | sharpen047: yes it will | 05:59 |
| Out_Cold | Shentino, something like that.. i think there are a few more levels but yea | 05:59 |
| sharpen047 | maco, kubuntu karmic comes with PA | 05:59 |
| maco | sharpen047: no it does not | 05:59 |
| maco | sharpen047: im on the kubuntu development team | 05:59 |
| Out_Cold | Shentino, i just use one app at a time lol | 05:59 |
| maco | sharpen047: perhaps you installed java? | 06:00 |
| Shentino | meh, I like firing up sox in a VT and doing stuff on desktop ^^ | 06:00 |
| sharpen047 | maco, thank you | 06:00 |
| sharpen047 | maco, if it is installed i did it through firefox | 06:00 |
| Shentino | though there's some sort of bug that kills the sound at least temporarily when you switch to a VT | 06:00 |
| Shentino | and it gets hosed if that VT belongs to someone else other than who owns the desktop | 06:00 |
| maco | sharpen047: i think java is the most common way for pulseaudio to accidentally end up on kubuntu systems. personally, i like pulseaudio, but then ive had over a year of hanging out with the audio guru to learn to make it work for me | 06:00 |
| lowlycoder | in the english sentenced, is the right grammar "friends worth dying beside" or "friends worth dying besides"? | 06:00 |
| Out_Cold | lol | 06:01 |
| zcat[1] | there are gdm theme packages in karmic but absolutely no way of USING any of the themes?!! | 06:01 |
| Flare-Laptop | !lol | Out_Cold | 06:01 |
| ubottu | Out_Cold: Please don't use "LOL" and "OMG" and so forth on a regular basis. This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks. | 06:01 |
| maco | lowlycoder: the former | 06:01 |
| maco | lowlycoder: also, thats offtopic | 06:01 |
| Flare-Laptop | !ot | lowlycoder | 06:01 |
| ubottu | lowlycoder: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 06:01 |
| lowlycoder | maco: what is the grammar rule I should look up? | 06:01 |
| maco | lowlycoder: im not sure | 06:01 |
| zcat[1] | so is there a config file or something in gconf that I can change? | 06:02 |
| \\`00t | Hey, my brother ran Ubuntu like 3yrs ago and he had an awesome interface that looked like a "cube" that would have different desktops on each edge ... does that still exist? | 06:02 |
| ShapeShifter499 | unkmar: I just ssh that ip and it worked | 06:02 |
| Flare-Laptop | !compiz | \\`00t | 06:02 |
| ubottu | \\`00t: Compiz (compositing window manager), for a howto see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager and more help #compiz | 06:02 |
| Out_Cold | i think that over use of badly timed bot scripts should be limited to people who are actually opped | 06:02 |
| Shentino | lowly: Actually that one depends on context. PM me if you want details, but not here in public | 06:02 |
| zcat[1] | !compiz | \\`00t | 06:02 |
| Blue1 | is anyone else having usb flash drive mount failures in 9.10? | 06:02 |
| sharpen047 | maco, haha well is therea way to configure it so i can have sound through firefox and amarok?(example) | 06:02 |
| \\`00t | sweet | 06:02 |
| Flare-Laptop | Out_Cold: Nope, not when a IRC op helper (like me) know when and how to use them :) | 06:03 |
| zcat[1] | \\`00t: mostly you just need to install compizconfig-settings-manager and enable the cube through that, compiz is already installer and running in ubuntu since way back | 06:03 |
| Out_Cold | tool | 06:03 |
| zcat[1] | *installed | 06:03 |
| maco | sharpen047: theoretically, if *everything* or *nothing* in system settings -> multimedia is set to use pulseaudio, it should all work, but mixing and matching will break things | 06:03 |
| sharpen047 | maco, i changed "audio output" and set to all devices | 06:04 |
| maco | sharpen047: not having pulseaudio installed at all should also work in kubuntu because phonon *should* handle everything | 06:04 |
| zcat[1] | \\`00t: assuming you have a 3d-capable video card and any required drivers | 06:04 |
| qwebirc15308 | Blue1: I am | 06:04 |
| unkmar | ShapeShifter499: yeah, so did I. | 06:04 |
| maco | sharpen047: restarting those apps may be necessary for it to take effect | 06:04 |
| cybermuttaqin | halo | 06:04 |
| Blue1 | qwebirc15308: I can always just manually mount/dismount but it's a pain.... | 06:04 |
| cybermuttaqin | i am new in ubuntu server | 06:04 |
| KenBW2 | how can install IEs4linux in Karmic? | 06:04 |
| cybermuttaqin | please help me | 06:04 |
| * zcat[1] does NOT have a 3d capable video card on this laptop.. no cubic goodness for me. :( | 06:04 | |
| maco | !ask | cybermuttaqin | 06:05 |
| ubottu | cybermuttaqin: 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. :-) | 06:05 |
| Flare-Laptop | zcat[1]: Card? | 06:05 |
| Silent_Echo | personally i find cube to b annoying | 06:05 |
| qwebirc15308 | Blue1: mine have to do with a bad unmount most of the time. | 06:05 |
| Meowpup | KenBW2: y do you want internet explorer in linux | 06:05 |
| Flare-Laptop | Silent_Echo: Not me, it rocks! | 06:05 |
| zcat[1] | ATO rage mobility something.. hang on | 06:05 |
| Blue1 | qwebirc15308: well the automount feature seems disabled... | 06:05 |

| Flare-Laptop | Snausages: Compiz | 06:05 |
| ShapeShifter499 | unkmar: how?? you didn't get to my files right? | 06:05 |
| Out_Cold | KenBW2, that might be possible in wine but i would check at the wine-hq | 06:06 |
| zcat[1] | sorry, not ATI that was my last laptop | 06:06 |
| qwebirc15308 | Blue1: I am sorry i am not having the same problem | 06:06 |
| Flare-Laptop | zcat[1]: er never heard of it, sorry can't help you there | 06:06 |
| Meowpup | KenBW2: its not internet explorer is baised on it | 06:06 |
| arvinoids | hi, how do I send a file on Empathy? (yahoo) | 06:06 |
| Snausages | Flare-Laptop: I haven't seen it. my ubuntu machine is a netbook so I doubt it could handle it. | 06:06 |
| Meowpup | the true internet explorer ie in windows | 06:06 |
| Blue1 | qwebirc15308: ah well at least there's a work around... | 06:06 |
| sharpen047 | maco, it has been this way sincei upgraded via alternate cd image from 9.08 i think it was, and uninstalling PA uninstalls half the things on my system like dolphin, kde-window-manager, and konqueror.. the list is about 100 apps long | 06:06 |
| KenBW2 | Out_Cold: are you familiar with http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/ | 06:06 |
| Flare-Laptop | Snausages: run compiz --replace and try it | 06:06 |
| unkmar | ShapeShifter499: yeah, I got in and stole a copy of all your records. I saw that you didn't pay the IRS last year. I'll inform them of your SSN. | 06:06 |
| qwebirc15308 | Blue1: good luck | 06:06 |
| zcat[1] | Flare-Laptop: I'm beyond help, I need a better laptop | 06:06 |
| unkmar | ShapeShifter499: of course I can't see jack. I don't have a login. :P | 06:06 |
| git__ | anyone know how to configure grub so that it doesn't combine casper-rw to the filesystem in a live usb? | 06:07 |
| Snausages | Flare-Laptop: what's the way out of it if it doesn't work? | 06:07 |
| ShapeShifter499 | unkmar: I don't know who's a hacker or not | 06:07 |
| zcat[1] | It's not a lack of config or drivers, it's just that the hardware is physically incapable of 3d | 06:07 |

| arvinoids | Hello all. How do I send file through Empathy using Yahoo protocol? Option is grayed out. | 06:08 |
| maco | sharpen047: please pastebin output of "aptitude why pulseaudio" | 06:08 |
| unkmar | ShapeShifter499: if it can be done. I probably could do it. but, I haven't applied myself in those areas. so, No. I didn't get anything. Just verified that the port resolved to an active ssh connection. | 06:08 |
| Josti | Hello Anyone here that knows anything about touchscreens ? | 06:08 |
| KenBW2 | Out_Cold: yea i noticed that, but it's fairly well-known | 06:08 |
| Flare-Laptop | arvinoids: Upload it to filebin.ca, and give them the URL | 06:08 |
| ShapeShifter499 | unkmar: so did it let you try to log in | 06:08 |
| arvinoids | what do i need to upload? | 06:08 |
| unkmar | yes, and fingerprinted me. | 06:09 |
| landry | Out_Cold: I thought linux was supposed to be immune to viruses | 06:09 |
| Out_Cold | KenBW2, and it seems that you need wine for it to work.. | 06:09 |
| ShapeShifter499 | unkmar: what does it mean for me? | 06:09 |
| KenBW2 | Out_Cold: yea i know, but when i tried t failed | 06:09 |
| Out_Cold | landry, very not true..... people just don't write viruses for linux.. that and you need sudo rights to run the virus | 06:09 |
| sharpen047 | maco, haha only puts out this "i pulseaudio-module-x11 Depends pulseaudio (= 1:0.9.19-0ubuntu4)" | 06:09 |
| Silent_Echo | question to the room....empathy: what clients can it video chat with, Pidgin: what clients can pidgin video chat with? | 06:10 |
| Flare-Laptop | !virus | Out_Cold, landry | 06:10 |
| ubottu | Out_Cold, landry: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 06:10 |
| maco | landry: there have been ~30 viruses for linux in the wild over the years. they are quickly patched out of existence. none in a few years that im aware of | 06:10 |
| Out_Cold | KenBW2, have you found any other info on that app other than that onee site?? it seems pretty fishy to me | 06:10 |
| unkmar | ShapeShifter499: it means that the ssh is working and the portforwarding is working. you just need stable way to know where the system is if your Internet IP changes on your DSL network. | 06:10 |
| landry | Out_Cold: well if I visit the site and dont give my password... | 06:10 |
| ShapeShifter499 | unkmar: should it work? cuz all it did to me was keep saying that the network was unreachable | 06:10 |
| KenBW2 | Out_Cold: ive used it on previous iterations of ubuntu | 06:10 |
| davebs | I think my driver modules got deleted from /lib/modules/kernel version/kernel directory, is there any way to rebuild them? | 06:10 |
| hemant_ | how can i run the ubuntu linux from ram | 06:10 |
| ShapeShifter499 | unkmar: unreachable outside of my network | 06:11 |
| Flare-Laptop | hemant_: Live CD? | 06:11 |
| Silent_Echo | hemant_: live cd | 06:11 |
| unkmar | ShapeShifter499: if the no-ip properly resolves to your Internet ip. then it will work. | 06:11 |
| \\`00t | Stupid question ... in Compiz ... how do I add more than 2 desktops (2 doesn't make for an exciting cube, hah) | 06:11 |
| Flare-Laptop | ShapeShifter499: Get a real domain :D | 06:11 |
| unkmar | ShapeShifter499: it IS reachable from outside of your network by the IP. | 06:11 |
| maco | \\`00t: in general settings you can set horizontal virtual size to 4 | 06:11 |
| Flare-Laptop | \\`00t: install compizconfig-settings manager, then set the horizontal virtual size to 4 on the general menu | 06:12 |
| Flare-Laptop | oos | 06:12 |
| ShapeShifter499 | unkmar: but not when I use the url the no-ip gave me | 06:12 |
| Flare-Laptop | oops* | 06:12 |
| Out_Cold | i have had several difficulties with wine apps even though a lot of them seem heavily supported | 06:12 |
| unkmar | \\`00t: right click the desktop selection thingy on the bar and select a number larger than 2 for horizontal desktops. | 06:12 |
| KenBW2 | Out_Cold: maybe if it's a wine app it would cause problems if you installed it n Windows, hence the warning | 06:12 |
| \\`00t | Flare-Laptop, Can you have a diff wallpaper on each "desktop"? | 06:12 |
| Flare-Laptop | \\`00t: Not yet | 06:12 |
| Flare-Laptop | \\`00t: As far as I know anyway, I can't. | 06:12 |
| unkmar | ShapeShifter499: that is because no-ip appears to not have the correct IP set. | 06:13 |
| masterfishslayer | in need of help with karmic live usb persistent {post install] | 06:13 |

| sharpen047 | maco, any ideas? | 06:13 |
| sevol1 | does anyone know why sound in mplayer doesn't work? | 06:13 |
| \\`00t | "Number of desktops" is set to 1 ... | 06:13 |
| Trezker | I think I saw a video yesterday of compiz with different backgrouns on each | 06:13 |
| Out_Cold | KenBW2, very possible but still sounds fishy... 4 security reports in 90 days is not very good | 06:13 |
| ShapeShifter499 | unkmar: whats the difference between the url and ip? | 06:13 |
| sevol1 | my sound works, but in mplayer the volume icon is greyed out | 06:13 |
| Shentino | What is the proper way to pronounce "sudo" | 06:13 |
| Shentino | Does it rhyme with judo? | 06:13 |
| \\`00t | There really isn't any "help" for this :) | 06:13 |
| maco | sharpen047: pastebin output of trying to remove pulseaudio | 06:13 |
| unkmar | ShapeShifter499: what url where you given? | 06:13 |
| Flare-Laptop | Shentino: yeah | 06:13 |
| KenBW2 | \\`00t:i think what you can do is make an image that's (number of desktops * horz resolution) | 06:13 |
| landry | url maps to an ip | 06:13 |
| maco | Shentino: proper is like "sue due" but "sue doe" is common too | 06:14 |
| KenBW2 | Out_Cold: ill look into it | 06:14 |
| \\`00t | oooh, that makes sense | 06:14 |
| maco | Shentino: because its "superuser do" where "do" is the verb | 06:14 |
| ShapeShifter499 | unkmar: shapeshifter499.hopto.org | 06:14 |
| pcdummy | sevol1: for me it works perfect | 06:14 |
| maco | Shentino: i go with the judo-rhyming one | 06:14 |
| sevol1 | pcdummy: i mean totem not mplayer sorry | 06:14 |
| Flare-Laptop | Shentino: it means fake root :P | 06:14 |
| unkmar | that is an inside ip address. | 06:14 |
| \\`00t | OK everyone, thanks ... I'm out for the night! | 06:14 |
| \\`00t | g'nite all | 06:14 |
| maco | Shentino: out of habit | 06:14 |
| Flare-Laptop | \\`00t: night | 06:14 |
| maco | Flare-Laptop: or more literally, "superuser do" like "simon says" | 06:15 |
| unkmar | ShapeShifter499: it isn't getting an outside IP. | 06:15 |
| Flare-Laptop | macd_: Yup that too | 06:15 |
| unkmar | ShapeShifter499: and i bet I know why. | 06:15 |
| ShapeShifter499 | unkmar: why? | 06:15 |
| Flare-Laptop | ShapeShifter499: check your dsl modem and your router | 06:15 |

| GammaX | pcdummy: After upgrade it does not see my laptops touchpad and no audio/video is seen anymore | 06:17 |
| maco | ftab: grep | 06:17 |
| ShapeShifter499 | unkmar: ohh I see | 06:17 |
| ftab | is there any gnome tool for that or I have to rely on command line ? | 06:17 |
| GammaX | landry: I didnt | 06:17 |
| unkmar | ShapeShifter499: and plese don't use that irfan.php link I gave earlier. My system sort of depends on it. | 06:17 |
| ftab | maco, thanks but I used grep I m not sure it returns the desired result ? | 06:17 |
| ftab | maco is there any gui tool ? | 06:17 |
| pcdummy | GammaX: ohh :( | 06:17 |
| Out_Cold | ftab, i think grep can locate strings in files | 06:17 |
| ShapeShifter499 | unkmar: the ip address in the dsl router is 68.121.53.108 | 06:17 |
| maco | dunno | 06:17 |
| maco | Shentino: looks fine | 06:18 |

| ShapeShifter499 | unkmar: so should I add everything here to my wifi router | 06:18 |
| maco | sharpen047: that was at you :) | 06:18 |
| lindar | I installed wine. | 06:18 |

| ftab | any gui tool for finding a string in files ? | 06:18 |
| GammaX | landry: nope | 06:19 |
| pcdummy | GammaX: do you want to fix 9.10? | 06:19 |
| Seveas | ftab, gnome-terminal :) | 06:19 |
| Out_Cold | lindar, just run the setup/install binary | 06:19 |
| zcat[1] | lindar: normally just run the installer just like for windows.. | 06:19 |
| unkmar | ShapeShifter499: the no-ip appears to be the only thing that should be handled from the DSL router or... should be handled from the laptop that you plan to connect to. | 06:19 |
| ardchoille | Where can I find back in time? I don't see it in the repos for Jaunty | 06:19 |
| landry | GammaX: when you boot check to see if there's an entry for 9.04 | 06:19 |
| ftab | Sedated, :-) don't need a command line emmulator but a GUI tool | 06:19 |
| ftab | :-) | 06:19 |

| sharpen047 | maco, haha alright and ill restart i guess? and one problem no one has any clue about tha ti know of maybe you can see ithttp://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?action=printpage;topic=3108120.0 | 06:20 |
| Out_Cold | ftab, use gedit and ctrl + f | 06:20 |
| GammaX | pcdummy: I can I guess im just affraid theres more wrong than just what I told you. | 06:20 |
| ftab | Out_Cold, I want to search multiple files | 06:20 |
| zcat[1] | !info backintime-common | 06:20 |
| ubottu | backintime-common (source: backintime): simple backup/snapshot system. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.9.26-3 (karmic), package size 74 kB, installed size 664 kB | 06:20 |
| mattcen | ftab: Depending on what sort of files you are using there are probably gui tools that will work. E.g. You could probably use Eclipse for searching for code inside files | 06:20 |
| Out_Cold | then i suggest multiple gedits | 06:20 |
| unkmar | ShapeShifter499: one of my servers is behind a DSL modem. I did not set the router to handle the no-ip address updating. | 06:20 |
| zcat[1] | !info simplebackup | 06:20 |
| ubottu | simplebackup (source: simplebackup): Simple backup tool. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.1.1-1ubuntu1 (karmic), package size 8 kB, installed size 84 kB | 06:20 |
| landry | GammaX: try "Safe Mode?" | 06:20 |
| mattcen | ftab: Mostly though, the command line and Grep are your best bet | 06:20 |
| Cuddles | any x11vnc gurus in here? | 06:21 |
| KenBW2 | Out_Cold: it seems that the issues are JS-related on the site, not the app itse;f | 06:21 |
| pcdummy | zcat[1]: and now? | 06:21 |
| ardchoille | ftab: You might want to see my command line tutorial, it has a section on searching: http://ardchoille42.blogspot.com/2009/08/command-line-cheatsheet.html | 06:21 |
| ftab | mattcen, I tried many options using grep but no luck | 06:21 |
| GammaX | landry: reffering to from the grub menu? | 06:21 |
| Seveas | grep, fgrep (for non-regex strings), strings (for binart files). What more could onw want :) | 06:21 |
| unkmar | ShapeShifter499: I created a script that runs from cron.hourly. It checks if there is a change in the ip and then updates accordingly. | 06:21 |
| ShapeShifter499 | unkmar: do I need no ip? | 06:21 |
| landry | GammaX: yes | 06:21 |
| agorist | Hi all, so I just installed Ubuntu. (I'm kind-of new to linux/ubuntu) what do ya'll suggest for packages to install? What do you use? | 06:21 |
| mattcen | ftab: What are you searching for, and what sort of files are you looking in? | 06:21 |
| landry | GammaX: The next line down from the default selection | 06:21 |
| ftab | let me send you | 06:21 |
| GammaX | landry: I think it said restore mode or something, Im in it now but it doesnt auto sense the touchpad or sound | 06:22 |
| ftab | find . | xargs grep "$settings['theme_url']=" -sl | 06:22 |
| unkmar | ShapeShifter499: not if you no your IP address and that it isn't going to change. if you think your IP might change then you need something to keep you updated to the changes. that is what no-ip is all about. | 06:22 |
| zcat[1] | http://www.danielandrade.net/2007/11/10/10-things-to-do-just-after-installing-ubuntu-710/ | 06:22 |
| KenBW2 | agorist: what do you want to do | 06:22 |
| ftab | grep -H -r "displaze" ~/public_html/aftabnaveed-dsp/forum/*.php | 06:22 |
| Out_Cold | KenBW2, and when you install it, you get errors?\ | 06:22 |
| zcat[1] | Ohh, wrong article | 06:22 |
| ftab | used that kind of patterns for searching | 06:22 |
| KenBW2 | Out_Cold: im trying it now, seems to be working | 06:22 |
| ShapeShifter499 | unkmar: can you ssh 10.0.0.5? | 06:22 |
| landry | GammaX: have you tried live boot from the CD? | 06:22 |
| mattcen | ftab: What was the find command for? | 06:22 |
| Seveas | ftab, to speed that up slightly, use fgrep if the string you're searching for isn't a regex | 06:23 |
| agorist | KenBW2 - just about everything from brows the web to edit video | 06:23 |
| mattcen | That xargs bit probably won't work as intented because the $settings will get expanded by the shell | 06:23 |
| unkmar | ShapeShifter499: no. 10.0.0.5 is a private IP. they can't be reached from through the web. | 06:23 |
| zcat[1] | http://www.ubuntugeek.com/what-applications-or-tweaks-you-prefer-after-installing-ubuntu-9-10-karmic.html | 06:23 |
| agorist | KenBw2 - Most imporant: Burn ISO files (to share linux) | 06:23 |
| KenBW2 | agorist: you have firefox installed already | 06:23 |
| GammaX | landry: Nope, If I do the live boot what will be the purpose ( in reguards to what will I do ) | 06:23 |
| masterfishslayer | anyone have experience with black screen after botched shutdown | 06:23 |
| ftab | mattcen, I found that on google, but tried grep as well | 06:23 |
| masterfishslayer | 9.10 karmic | 06:23 |
| agorist | KenBw2: Play Video Codecs. (I've always used VLC on windows) | 06:24 |
| landry | GammaX: to see if your touchpad and stuff works. | 06:24 |
| KenBW2 | agorist: burn ISOs with Applications > Brasero | 06:24 |
| agorist | KenBW2 - Yeah, firefox came in ubuntu | 06:24 |
| ShapeShifter499 | unkmar: thats the prob I don't know my comps net ip just the dsl ip, the local ip, and the no-ip url | 06:24 |
| unkmar | ShapeShifter499: read about IP's and network classes. Class A, B, C, D. | 06:24 |
| KenBW2 | agorist: codecs can be installed with ubuntu-restricted-extras | 06:24 |
| GammaX | landry: ahhhh ok | 06:24 |
| unkmar | what Ip did you give me for the dsl IP? | 06:24 |
| zcat[1] | masterfishslayer: regularly ; try alt-F8 then alt-F7 again to get it back | 06:24 |
| landry | GammaX: ;) | 06:25 |
| ShapeShifter499 | unkmar: yea, cuz it was detected by your link you told me to wget | 06:25 |
| agorist | KenBW2 - You prefer Brasero? I did have a bit of a problem with it in Mint. It messed up 3 DVDs and i switched programs and the other program burned on the first try. | 06:25 |
| masterfishslayer | tried that... i just get the circle cursor with a black background | 06:25 |
| mattcen | ftab: So you're looking for 'displaze' in all forum/*.php files? If that's you're intent, that's what you're doing. Also remember that grep is case sensitive unless you use '-i' | 06:25 |
| Out_Cold | ShapeShifter499, if you can ssh from within your network to 10.0.0.5 or whatever it was, but you can't ssh your real ip addy from outside your network then it may be poor router setup with port forwarding | 06:25 |
| KenBW2 | agorist: iv never actually used it - i use K3B | 06:25 |
| pcdummy | argorist: which other one? | 06:25 |
| ftab | mattcen, let me try -i | 06:26 |
| agorist | KenBW2 - Does ubuntu-restricted-extras install Flash? Or should I download form flash website, or non-free flash from synaptic | 06:26 |
| unkmar | ShapeShifter499: there are other websites out there that can give you that information. dyndns.org is one of them. | 06:26 |
| masterfishslayer | zcat[1]: tried that... i just get the circle cursor with a black background | 06:26 |
| KenBW2 | agorist: yes it does | 06:26 |
| zcat[1] | agorist: yes it installs flash | 06:26 |
| sharpen047 | maco, hey still there? | 06:26 |
| d4rkfe4r | Ive been having issues with duel screen and nvidia | 06:26 |
| maco | sharpen047: aye | 06:26 |
| ShapeShifter499 | unkmar: yea I got a account with dyndns.org | 06:26 |
| Out_Cold | d4rkfe4r, like what? | 06:27 |
| agorist | KenBW2 - K3B - You like it? I'll give it a shot. zcat[1] Thanks! | 06:27 |
| zcat[1] | masterfishslayer: hmmm, ctrl-alt-f8 sorry (otherwise it doesn't actually switch) .. that's how I make mine come back anyhow... | 06:27 |
| KenBW2 | Out_Cold: IEs4Linux has installed fine. we'll see if it wipes my HDD :P | 06:27 |
| sharpen047 | you take a look at that link i sent you about the media keys? | 06:27 |
| bazhang | d4rkfe4r, using xrandr ? | 06:27 |
| Out_Cold | KenBW2, i don't see why it would | 06:27 |
| d4rkfe4r | Both are my monitors are the EXACT same model and the max res for both is 1280 x 1024 | 06:27 |
| KenBW2 | Out_Cold: actually if it's not run with admin rights it can't do anything outside my user space anyway can it? | 06:27 |
| d4rkfe4r | But on one the max is 640 x 480 | 06:28 |
| masterfishslayer | zcat[1]: tried alt-ctl-f1, f2, f3,f4,f5,f6,f7,f8, etc | 06:28 |
| Out_Cold | d4rkfe4r, have you tried the nvidia settings app? | 06:28 |
| d4rkfe4r | yes | 06:28 |
| agorist | KenBW2 is there anything better than Inkscape , or is that the best illustrator type program? | 06:28 |
| GammaX | landry: also the only kernel wich works is 2.6.28-13 | 06:28 |
| zcat[1] | masterfishslayer: well, I'm all out of ideas ;) | 06:28 |
| masterfishslayer | thanks | 06:28 |
| KenBW2 | agorist: it depends what you want to do | 06:28 |
| Out_Cold | KenBW2, should be fine | 06:28 |
| d4rkfe4r | ive deleted xorg.conf and remade it | 06:28 |
| KenBW2 | Out_Cold: yea ive never had a problem with it before | 06:28 |
| Out_Cold | d4rkfe4r, which driver version are you running? 180? | 06:29 |
| d4rkfe4r | Yeah | 06:29 |
| d4rkfe4r | The newest | 06:29 |
| KenBW2 | agorist: i like Inkscape for *creating* imges, but it's not for editing photos | 06:29 |
| d4rkfe4r | i have a 8800 gt | 06:29 |
| agorist | KenBW2 - Yeah, like illustrator, not photoshopt - gotcha. | 06:29 |
| Out_Cold | i had tried that and was having issues and had to downgrade to 160 or 170 i think.. | 06:29 |
| unkmar | ardchoille: that is probably the best for SVG stuff. | 06:29 |
| landry | GammaX: only 2.6.28-13 boots? | 06:30 |
| KenBW2 | agorist: i'm not familiar with illustrator | 06:30 |
| ardchoille | agorist: ^^ | 06:30 |
| unkmar | agorist: gimp is more the photoshop speed. | 06:30 |
| d4rkfe4r | Ahh, ill give that the 'ol college try | 06:30 |
| agorist | KenBW2: How about a good program for mounting ISO images - a gui tool? | 06:30 |
| Out_Cold | i have an 8600 gt i think.... i don't use the nvidia box too much | 06:30 |
| GammaX | landry: the others either hang or the screen continuously glitches and I can not do anything. | 06:30 |
| leaf-sheep | agorist: Right-click the ISO and mount it. | 06:30 |
| d4rkfe4r | Ahhh | 06:30 |
| unkmar | KenBW2: photoshop = raster/pixels. illustrator = vectors/lines and curves. | 06:30 |
| agorist | KenBW2 - Illustrator is for creating 2d art/cartoon/drawing, etc. | 06:30 |
| Out_Cold | although ATI sucks with support, i seem to get more out of my ATIs than my nvidias | 06:31 |
| agorist | unkmar - yearh, gimp came with ubuntu. I like it. | 06:31 |
| d4rkfe4r | Hehe | 06:31 |
| d4rkfe4r | I hate ATI | 06:31 |
| KenBW2 | agorist: i always use terminal commands | 06:31 |
| Out_Cold | but they work ;) | 06:31 |
| d4rkfe4r | Trye | 06:31 |
| d4rkfe4r | True | 06:31 |
| KenBW2 | unkmar: thanks | 06:31 |
| agorist | Who makes the best OS X Doc type app? | 06:32 |
| ardchoille | !best | agorist | 06:32 |
| ubottu | agorist: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 06:32 |
| unkmar | agorist: you don't need to mount ISO's very often. can usually just use the gnome archive viewer program. I don't remember it's name. I just doulble click from nautilus | 06:32 |
| keppi | GammaX: so liveboot doesn't work? | 06:32 |
| GammaX | landry: Also when I go to update manager it says not all updates can be installed, when I run a partial upgrade it says could not calculate the upgrade you have held broken pachages... | 06:32 |
| d4rkfe4r | i use "mount" to mount iso | 06:32 |
| d4rkfe4r | lol | 06:32 |
| GammaX | keppi: have no insterted the live cd yet, ive only done an online system update from 9.04 UE | 06:33 |
| agorist | ardchoille - thanks. | 06:33 |
| zcat[1] | unkmar: fileroller.. there's also an iso mounter package somewhere | 06:33 |
| keppi | GammaX: I had broken packages when I installed too. Ended up doing a clean install and everything worked fine. | 06:34 |
| agorist | Let me put it this way, can anyone suggest an OS X Doc type app for me? I don't know of any, but I know they exist. | 06:34 |
| zcat[1] | then they're just like a dmg image in osx | 06:34 |
| Out_Cold | ugh.... people who upgrade then get broken systems whine too much... fresh installs are the way to go people.. | 06:34 |
| GammaX | keppi: I realy enjoy having the ultimate edition... Runs excellent! I guess I have to do a clean isntall... :( | 06:34 |
| d4rkfe4r | Out_Cold, how do you suggest I downgrade? | 06:34 |
| GammaX | Out_Cold: Im not whining... im trying to fix the problem. | 06:35 |
| KenBW2 | Out_Cold: i agree with you on that, but ive always wondered why *should* upgrades cause problems any more than apt-get upgrades? | 06:35 |
| keppi | GammaX: try the live CD first | 06:35 |
| GammaX | keppi: Roger that. Thanks ill be back to give u an update. Later | 06:35 |
| keppi | GammaX: good luck | 06:36 |
| voss | ken, It shouldnt, but upgrades should come LATER not at the same time as new versions, upgrade versions should be bug tested and stabilized | 06:36 |
| agorist | I notice that there are a few ways to install flash. 1) DL from Adobe, 2) install gnash, 3) Install non-free installer form synaptic , 4) install ubuntu-restricted-extras -- Which do you prefer/suggest for a new user? | 06:36 |
| Out_Cold | d4rkfe4r, just remove the 180 and install >180 | 06:36 |
| KenBW2 | agorist: ubuntu-restricted-extras pulls non-free anyway so theyre the same | 06:37 |
| KenBW2 | voss: care to rephrase that? | 06:37 |
| unkmar | agorist: I had best luck with the Adobe version if I remeber properly. | 06:37 |
| d4rkfe4r | Hehe ok | 06:37 |
| voss | ken, upgrade versions need to be tested more than fresh installs. | 06:38 |
| agorist | KenBW2 - ahh, ok. thanks, I was wondering about that. -- unkmar: really? So can I install the ubuntu-restricted-extras w/ out non-free flash ?? | 06:39 |
| Out_Cold | if you make a good partition scheme with a separate /, /home, /boot, and so on, installing a new release takes on a real easy task... | 06:39 |
| KenBW2 | voss: in theory, isn't a dis-upgrade the same as apt-get upgrading *all* packages? IE the same as swapping Jaunty repos with Karmic ones? | 06:39 |
| Out_Cold | same with aptoncd | 06:39 |
| deviant-route | has anyone had any problems with flash when viewing youtube videos in fullscreen? mine lags alot | 06:39 |
| evilGUI | Hello, does anyone in here know anything about ALSA and pulseaudio? | 06:39 |
| maco | evilGUI: depends what you want to know | 06:39 |
| evilGUI | I'm getting this bug in virtualbox http://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/2858 | 06:39 |
| Out_Cold | evilGUI, i know everything and nothing | 06:39 |
| maco | evilGUI: and how much of my brain you expect to function at this time of night | 06:40 |
| keppi | deviant-route: yeah, but my computer is really old | 06:40 |
| evilGUI | The guy in the thread said a workaround is to create a .asoundrc | 06:40 |
| deviant-route | keppi, how old? | 06:40 |
| keppi | deviant-route: how did you install flash? | 06:40 |
| voss | ken, in theory yes | 06:41 |
| maco | evilGUI: oh. i know nothing about vbox audio stuff | 06:41 |
| keppi | deviant-route: AMD 3800 (1.5 GHz) | 06:41 |
| deviant-route | keppi, ubuntu-restricted-extras | 06:41 |
| voss | keppi, whats your motherboard? | 06:41 |
| evilGUI | ah, anyway I added this http://pastebin.com/m331848a1 which seems to have done nothing. | 06:41 |
| keppi | voss: I have no idea. But it's running an ATI radeon AGP card | 06:42 |
| evilGUI | Ubuntu has all of the pulse plugins etc out of the box correct? | 06:42 |
| KenBW2 | voss: so what goes wrong | 06:42 |
| keppi | deviant-route: I know installing flash thru firefox installs the wrong one and is slow. | 06:42 |
| agorist | KenBW2: is it possible to install ubuntu-restricted-extras without installing the flash portion. PS - what do you think about Adobe's version of flash for linux. PS I'm running x64 | 06:43 |
| antrax | hi | 06:43 |
| voss | Something new clashes unexpectedly with something old. | 06:43 |
| spO | i do patch < patchfile and patch says it cannot find the file to patch .... but I am at the base directory ... diff --git ffmpeg-r19281/libavcodec/g729data.h ffmpeg-r19281_v181/libavcodec/g729data.h .... i am at the base whereas if i did cd ffmpeg-r19281 i would go into that directory. I don't undrestand why patch doesn't work right | 06:43 |
| deviant-route | keppi, really? i did not know that | 06:43 |
| antrax | someone know how i can read a memory address? | 06:43 |
| KenBW2 | agorist: ive never had a problem with the Flash from the URE package | 06:43 |
| keppi | deviant-route: I tried that method before doing the restricted extras | 06:44 |
| voss | The adobe flash plug in for linux installs easily and works fine | 06:44 |
| KenBW2 | agorist: flashplugin-non-free *is* from Adobe you know | 06:44 |
| deviant-route | keppi, what method worked best for you | 06:44 |
| voss | I install mine from the adobe website | 06:45 |
| keppi | deviant-route: the restricted extras. in the others I had problems running flash in a window | 06:45 |
| deviant-route | voss, whats your system specs | 06:45 |
| agorist | KenBW2: Oh, ok. So is the same as the Adobe version on their website? Will URE automatically instally the x64 version? | 06:45 |
| KenBW2 | voss: any reason? | 06:45 |
| KenBW2 | agorist: i dont know about x64 | 06:45 |
| voss | I have a dual core laptop and an nvidia 8200 chipset | 06:45 |
| KenBW2 | agorist: assumedly, but i'd check | 06:45 |
| keppi | voss: dang, I'll trade ya | 06:46 |
| alfa119 | hey I am having issues with upgrading to 9.1 from 9.04 : install has stalled out at: rndc: connect failed: 127.0.0.1#953: connection refused, any ideas? | 06:46 |
| antrax | someone know about programing in C | 06:46 |
| antrax | ??? | 06:46 |
| McLovin | by default the download from adobe website only downloads thex86 32bit | 06:46 |
| agorist | Does anyone know if ubunt-restricted-extras installs x64 version of codecs ?? | 06:46 |
| voss | keppi, My laptop cost less than $500 | 06:46 |
| keppi | voss: where at? | 06:47 |
| voss | keppi newegg | 06:47 |
| keppi | voss: I'll have to start saving ;) | 06:47 |
| deviant-route | voss, i guest if your not runnig a system with dual core and a good graphic card flash wont work properly | 06:47 |
| totally_lost_use | I've been having an issue with the last two releases of Ubuntu, every once in a while when I copy a file to a folder the contents of that folder don't load unless I re-boot my computer at which time they appear again as they should. Any ideas? Any associated bug report? | 06:48 |
| zilla1 | I just installed 9.04, loading for the first time, and it is taking *forever*. On decent (c. 2002-current) hardware. I'm on a Mobo that requires special drivers for the SATA drive. It took a long time to load into grub, and when it did, it got to the "Boot from... ", and its now just sitting. Not sure if it will boot actually. Google didn't bring me this exact problem. Anything sound familiar? | 06:48 |
| keppi | deviant-route: do you have graphics acceleration?: | 06:48 |
| unkmar | when will my hibernate be restored? Doesn't work in my current version. | 06:48 |
| deviant-route | keppi, nope | 06:48 |
| alfa119 | hey I am having issues with upgrading to 9.1 from 9.04 : install has stalled out at: rndc: connect failed: 127.0.0.1#953: connection refused, any ideas?\ | 06:49 |
| deviant-route | keppi, it only lags when i'm watching videos online in fullscreen | 06:49 |
| === lengend|afk is now known as lengend | ||
| McLovin | agorist, medibuntu repos has them | 06:49 |
| unkmar | I am running 9.04 when will I get my hibernate back? | 06:51 |
| voss | alfa119, 127.0.0.1 is a loopback address | 06:51 |
| maco | unkmar: cant really say. its not like it breaks on all hardware at once | 06:51 |
| maco | unkmar: are you saying it used to work? | 06:51 |
| keppi | deviant-route: on HD videos or all? | 06:51 |
| unkmar | it worked under, fluxbuntu 7.10 | 06:52 |
| gOLDfeesh | is there a place in the system that caches packages? I'm trying to update my limewire but it keeps saying I'm downloading 5.2 | 06:52 |
| voss | alfa, you might need to set the ip address to that of the download server | 06:52 |
| deviant-route | keppi, on all | 06:52 |
| unkmar | gOLDfeesh: yes, there is. | 06:52 |
| maco | gOLDfeesh: all packages are downloaded to /var/cache/apt/archives | 06:52 |
| unkmar | gOLDfeesh: you can remove and then purge. | 06:52 |
| gOLDfeesh | unkmar, how would I do that | 06:52 |
| keppi | deviant-route: what kind of processor? | 06:52 |
| maco | gOLDfeesh: if your actual question is "why is it grabbing this old version?" run "sudo apt-get update" then "sudo apt-cache policy limewire" to see what versions are available in your repositories | 06:53 |
| === john is now known as Guest58772 | ||
| voss | keppi, are you using a desktop? | 06:53 |
| unkmar | well, maco also told you the location, you could simply remove the limewire files. | 06:53 |
| zilla1 | Huh, it booted up no problem in recovery mode. Odd, but I'm investigating. | 06:53 |
| keppi | voss: yes | 06:53 |
| voss | what type of video card pci-e? | 06:53 |
| keppi | voss: AGP | 06:54 |
| agorist | McLovin - thanks, so medibuntu repository has ubuntu restricted extras from x64 ?? Is that whay you're saying...jus makin sure i follow | 06:54 |
| keppi | voss: Radeon 7000 series | 06:54 |
| maco | unkmar: any idea on which release it broke? you're going to need to narrow it down a LOT to find what broke it. there've been...10 kernel versions since 7.10 | 06:54 |
| McLovin | agorist, yep | 06:54 |
| deviant-route | keppi, intel centrino 1.70 GHz | 06:55 |
| maco | unkmar: start with figuringout if it was 8.04, 8.10, or 9.04 that first failed | 06:55 |
| totally_lost_use | No one can point me to any info on folders not showing contents after a file transfer? It has happened enough to me on several computers and versions that I thought it was a common problem. | 06:55 |
| spO | i do patch < patchfile and patch says it cannot find the file to patch .... but I am at the base directory ... diff --git ffmpeg-r19281/libavcodec/g729data.h ffmpeg-r19281_v181/libavcodec/g729data.h .... i am at the base whereas if i did cd ffmpeg-r19281 i would go into that directory. I don't undrestand why patch doesn't work right | 06:55 |
| maco | spO: perhaps wrong patch level? | 06:55 |
| McLovin | agorist, it has them for x64 I just did the update 2 days ago off medibuntu | 06:55 |
| maco | spO: -p0? | 06:55 |
| keppi | deviant-route: hey, we're on the same boat. | 06:55 |
| unkmar | maco: I ran 7.10 until the repository moved. Then i broke my 7.10. so I was left with 2 options. 8.04 or 9.04. I was not going to do the 8.10. So, I have 9.04. I can tell you what my system is. | 06:56 |
| spO | maco, why do i need -p0 if i am at the base? --git ffmpeg-r19281/libavcodec/g729data.h < -- you see that.. there is no / at the very front | 06:56 |
| unkmar | maco: Dell Inspiron 8200. | 06:56 |
| agorist | McLovin - how do I add medibuntu repository -- so you suggest the package sfrom medibuntu? Everything is working for ya? | 06:56 |
| deviant-route | keppi,ha what brand laptop you using? | 06:56 |
| maco | unkmar: the only way to find out what caused it to break is to figure out when it broke, then narrow down further from there til you find the exact kernel commit that did it | 06:56 |
| Trenton | I just installed ubuntu 9.10 and I cant manage to install anything in the software manager | 06:56 |
| McLovin | agorist, just a min ill get a link | 06:56 |
| maco | spO: because im pretty sure -p1 is default | 06:57 |
| agorist | McLovin - thanks | 06:57 |
| keppi | deviant-route: mine's a desktop. Athlon 3800 I recently upgraded the chip from a duron processor :) | 06:57 |
| Trenton | The Install button is not clickable. | 06:57 |
| McLovin | agorist, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu | 06:57 |
| deviant-route | keppi, nice | 06:57 |
| spO | thanks maco | 06:57 |
| McLovin | agorist, this is the package info. w64codecs | 06:58 |
| McLovin | Proprietary codec binaries, x86_64 version. | 06:58 |
| voss | keppi, what socket? | 06:58 |
| keppi | deviant-route: it runs a lot smoother in XP | 06:58 |
| unkmar | wow, I just did an update and upgrade and.. wow, I've been lagging. | 06:58 |

| zaoul1 | Hi, where is the definitive location where TERM is set? Globally. Here is the thing also, /etc/profile iirc would be the spot but that is reading /etc/bash.bashrc, and I am using zsh not bash, there is also a code to read /etc/profile.d/* but the only file in there is gvfs-bash-completion.sh, so once again where is TERM being set at? Its not in my ~/.zshrc | 07:05 |

| keppi | deviant-route: my box broke when i upgraded to Karmic | 07:08 |
| agorist | McLovin - ubuntuguide.org says that Restricted Extras installs Flash, Java, Firefox Plugins, Microsoft Fonts, mp3 encoding, FFMpeg, Gstreamer extras, etc, and w32 or w64codecs. What I want to do is make SURE that i get the 64 bit codecs/extras/plugins. Do you know a way I can do this? | 07:08 |
| keppi | deviant-route: I had to do a clean install | 07:09 |
| voss | deviant, karmic doesnt have any really compelling upgrades | 07:09 |
| agorist | McLovin - I mean, do you know how I can be sure I'm getting 64 bit codecs and plugins? | 07:09 |
| voss | If openoffice 3.1 and firefox 3.5 were backported to jaunty I wouldnt even bother | 07:09 |
| agorist | McLovin - maybe I should just install these extras individually, eh? What do you think? | 07:10 |
| ayman | how to convert avi to rmvb on ubuntu karmic koala | 07:10 |
| deviant-route | keppi, ive never tried to do a upgrade before. I alway do a clean install | 07:10 |
| deviant-route | voss, me too | 07:10 |
| draconis | agorist, I can't recall, but I think Flash in the repositories is still Flash 9, you have to install Flash 10 for amd64 manually | 07:11 |
| unkmar | my last upgrade forced a clean install. I managed to keep my /home. | 07:11 |
| voss | deviant, I use karmic on my desktop and it works okay. I use mint 7 on my laptop, thats based on jaunty\ | 07:11 |
| agorist | draconis -- ok, thanks. that makes a difference. I will download them from Adobe then. | 07:11 |
| RPG_Master | Hi, I am trying to install the drivers for my buddy's Everex stepnote, and it involves installing some drivers that aren't in the repos. I think its the closed source 3d drivers that are supposed to go along with the openchrome 2d drivers... So would anyone know if there is a repo I can add to synaptic and if not can anyone help me install it manually? | 07:11 |
| keppi | I upgraded from gusty through jaunty with no problems | 07:11 |
| zaoul1 | I gues I could put a /etc/profile.d/term.sh, with TERM=xterm-colors256 | 07:11 |
| zaoul1 | ...ugh this is like going to the community college for a hair cut | 07:11 |
| draconis | agorist, don't even bother with w64codecs until you run into something that needs it. I haven't seen any file that required it | 07:12 |
| murcherson | Sahkolihaa: I know there was an issue with the value updates returning falsely high numbers | 07:12 |

| McLovin | agorist, well the x64 package from medibuntu covers just about everything and there is also the non-free-codecs package. you will have to forgive me as im getting a little bit lost now s to what you are exactly looking to do as those 2 package cover everyyhing | 07:12 |
| keppi | i tried mint for a little bit | 07:13 |

| mcurran | looks cooler | 07:14 |
| RPG_Master | so, no one knows? | 07:14 |
| deviant-route | voss, you mean a more clean look? | 07:14 |

| Blue1 | ayman: no idea never heard of rmvb | 07:14 |

| Sahkolihaa | Great, now Xfce isn't accepting Chrome as my default browser even though it's set. \o/ | 07:16 |
| McLovin | agorist, i understand what ur saying. if that is the case just install the codecs as you need them. thats probally your best bet because now that you mention it im having a bit of a clashing problem with a few codecs | 07:16 |

| voss | Also it has the start bar on the bottom and its a bit better organized | 07:17 |

| tmade | murcherson: i read some threads on google concerning proxy seetings and problems on kde4...but those are 1 years old and now it should work!? | 07:18 |
| arand_ | agorist: you download the libflashplugin.so file from adobe labs, and put it in that folder (create the plugins folder if it doesn't exist), make sure not to have any other flash/gnash/sfwdec installed and then restart firefox and it should run properly on 64bit flash | 07:18 |
| Blue1 | Guest84935: no I think it will install grub by default - what is your fear of grub? | 07:18 |

| RPG_Master | anyone here know about openchrome? | 07:23 |
| CodeBlock | if I grab mini.iso, and don't select command-line install (just regular install), is that basically a full netinstall (regular ubuntu, with X11 and all?) | 07:23 |
| maco | mcurran: /server will disconnect you from this one and connect you to the new one | 07:23 |
| RPG_Master | And if its able to do 3d? | 07:23 |

| flo__ | hello | 07:26 |
| mcurran | How would you change the server in pidgin then, because ubuntu came up automatically | 07:26 |
| tmade | maco: vega- anyway should be a big deal to get proxy working!? | 07:27 |
| voss | or uniboot | 07:27 |
| deviant-route | keppi, someone recommeded me to use ext2 for /boot | 07:27 |
| maco | mcurran: you add it as another acount | 07:27 |
| tmade | shouldn´t | 07:27 |
| Spixx | mcurran: you can add more by adding another "instance" of irc in "account > manage account" | 07:27 |
| voss | oh well nite | 07:27 |
| somename | Is there any options at all about the bootloader during the install proccess? I would be happy to not have any bootloader installed and then I could make a lillo floppy mfself | 07:27 |

| wgrant | kid-kurupt: Why? | 07:28 |
| agorist | arand_ in x64 ubuntu does the synaptic package manager automatically give you x64 packages? | 07:28 |
| Spixx | somename: that is "advanced" or similar little button on the summary screen right before the install starts | 07:28 |
| maco | kid-kurupt: you want to downgrade? | 07:28 |

| UbuntoJO | what IRC clients can someone recommend? | 07:29 |
| anonmatir | many UbuntoJO | 07:29 |
| maco | UbuntoJO: i use quassel, but for gnome i like xchat-gnome | 07:29 |
| tmade | maco: do you know in which file the setup ist saved in? | 07:29 |
| somename | ok i will install in advanced mode | 07:29 |
| maco | UbuntoJO: or for command line, i like irssi | 07:29 |
| deviant-route | keppi, usally ise ext4 for /boot, but since ive been using ext2 my system boot alot slower | 07:29 |
| kid-kurupt | maco, wgrant: not to downgrade, my ati packages seem to have a bug with suspend mode on my laptop, forums recommends downgrading those 2 packages and locking the version in synaptic | 07:29 |
| Blue1 | UbuntoJO: irssi or xchat | 07:30 |
| UbuntoJO | I'm using Xubuntu 9.10 | 07:30 |
| anonmatir | UbuntoJO: u need text or command line and windows or linix? | 07:30 |
| anonmatir | irssi or xchat | 07:30 |
| McLovin | UbuntoJO, XChat | 07:30 |
| ZykoticK9 | UbuntoJO, i'd strongly recommend against xchat-gnome -- "xchat" is what i use but avoid the xchat-gnome! | 07:30 |
| maco | UbuntoJO: ok so if you want gtk stuff...again...xchat-gnome is my preference | 07:30 |
| agorist | maco - thanks, because there is no mention of x64 in the packages for flash. so i was worried ;-) last time I installed flash on a 64 bit ubuntu it didn't work very well, the video had tearing. Never got it figured out, and I thought it may have been a 32 bit plugin in a 64 bit firefox/ubuntu. | 07:30 |
| UbuntoJO | thanks...I'll check out irssi...using xchat now....haven't really looked at them | 07:30 |
| maco | ZykoticK9: aw xchat-gnome has a much easier configuration window | 07:31 |
| deviant-route | UbuntuJO, i would recommend irssi | 07:31 |
| anonmatir | i recomend against the default xchan-gnome on jaunty | 07:31 |
| keppi | deviant-route: ext2 has more limitations. I think it's more prone to fragmentation as well. You can defrag the ext2 system to see if it will boot faster | 07:31 |
| maco | agorist: oh well yes thats still the case | 07:31 |
| maco | agorist: 64bit flash is unreleased | 07:31 |
| UbuntoJO | Xubuntu Karmic here...I'll look at them real quick....brb thanks | 07:31 |
| maco | agorist: but there are 32bit libraries for compatibility for 64bit and a bit of extra glue besides | 07:31 |
| McLovin | agorist, dept will read the kernel and only update based on the arc of the system | 07:31 |
| maco | agorist: which should be installed automatically | 07:31 |
| deviant-route | keppi, yea i'll try doing that | 07:31 |
| tmade | maco: got it. dns does not work..i put in the ip :-) anyway i´d like to know in which place proxy setting is saved!? | 07:32 |
| McLovin | agorist, * adept i cant spell tonight | 07:32 |
| maco | tmade: i dont know, sorry | 07:32 |
| agorist | maco: what 32bit libraries are you talking about? Have you ever gotten flash to run right on a 64bit linux? | 07:32 |
| tmade | somebody know in which file proxy settings are saved in? | 07:32 |
| tmade | on kde | 07:33 |
| maco | agorist: itll automatically pull in ia32libs and nspluginwrapper and some other bits to make 32bit flash work on 64bit linux. and yes, thats what i use. | 07:33 |
| deviant-route | well good night all | 07:33 |
| maco | tmade: #kubuntu would be better. this is a gnome-centric channel | 07:33 |
| agorist | maco - oh, so the 32bit libs are intalled automatically? Ok. Do you use the flashplugin-nonfree or flashplugin ?? | 07:33 |

| tmade | maco: thanks! | 07:33 |

| agorist | Maco - and you don't get tearing? Maybe I need a nice nVidia video card or something | 07:33 |
| maco | agorist: if you want a native 64bit flash that can at least handle youtube (but not necessarily flahs-based games), i like swfdec | 07:34 |
| maco | agorist: i have intel graphics. i dont know what you mean about tearing though | 07:34 |
| maco | agorist: i mean....most flash videos are simply encoded really really crappily | 07:34 |
| agorist | maco - i don't do flash games, or games at all really. So I can use swfdec for x64? Would I have to unintall flashplugin-nonfree then? | 07:34 |
| maco | agorist: yes | 07:34 |
| anonmatir | ny one ever converted avi to vob cd's and played on home dvd? | 07:35 |
| agorist | maco - do know what tearing is? | 07:35 |
| maco | agorist: you mean bad graphics, where its kinda chunky instead of smooth? | 07:35 |
| ZykoticK9 | anonmatir, check out the gui program devede - very cool | 07:35 |
| yoshx | hello | 07:35 |
| maco | agorist: i thought flash videos on youtube and such were just *always* like that | 07:35 |
| maco | agorist: to make the filesize smaller | 07:35 |
| anonmatir | ZykoticK9: thanxs! | 07:36 |
| agorist | maco - tearing is specifically where you get lines across the screen when cameras pan sideways quickly and the different chunks of the screen lose sync with each other. | 07:36 |
| agorist | maco - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Tearing_%28simulated%29.jpg | 07:36 |

| bigmack83_ | i have an external hdd that ubuntu says may be failing.Disk Utility says that the reallocated sector count is bas as well as current pending sector count. tryign to mount the partition tells me to log into windows and run fdisk /f to try and fix the partition. which didnt seem to work. anyone know of a way i can fix it? its a new hdd and *should* still be good.the error didnt crop up unitl i had already copied data to it so i know it | 07:44 |

| bigmack83_ | maco, yea i know its possible to get a bad hdd, but i was using it before. so i feel as if it could be an error that can be corrected | 07:45 |
| bigmack83_ | yea true | 07:45 |
| maco | bigmack83_: if the sectors are bad, backup now and get it replaced under warranty | 07:45 |
| maco | bigmack83_: i think its like < 1yr or > 5yr as most common ages for disks to go | 07:46 |
| leobotelho | And in the 9.10 I saw a difference, the ALSA comes with a question mark "?" !! I can't really work on it !! | 07:46 |

| arche | is there any software for ubuntu that will recover/remove a password on a word document? | 07:46 |
| bigmack83_ | maco, well thats the problem. i cant access it. so I cant copy the data off of it. it was only to store media and other random files so its not my OS | 07:47 |

| leobotelho | Nothing is mute | 07:49 |
| maco | agorist: swf is just a flash container | 07:49 |
| maco | agorist: it can contain a flv or a game or whatever | 07:49 |
| ZykoticK9 | leobotelho, does it list your card with "aplay -l" | 07:49 |
| agorist | maco - so I shouldn't install SWF and FlashPlugin at the same time? | 07:49 |

| MarkGil | Hi, I have a script that behaves funny on Ubuntu and Debian. If it's launched ./myscript, it uses BASH, if someone uses sh ./myscript, it uses DASH (and breaks). The first line of my script has; #!/bin/bash What gives? | 08:15 |
| Meowpup | that meand even ubuntu 9.04 based sidtros such as linux mint are out dated and mint 8 is not even out in full release yet. | 08:16 |

| ZykoticK9 | MarkGil, it certainly does, when you just run "./myscript" it calls the correct interpreter BASH | 08:19 |
| MarkGil | So I have to code a line to detect the interpreter and error if it's dash? | 08:19 |
| Meowpup | y is that | 08:19 |
| MarkGil | or not bash | 08:20 |
| billiard_junkee_ | dunno, it just is | 08:20 |
| ZykoticK9 | MarkGil, i guess so??? you might want to check with the #bash people | 08:20 |

| agorist | mneptok - so flash 10.1 x64 beta is working ok. I'm seeing tearing on all flash video. Tearing is what I was hoping to get rid of. ;( but thanks anyway. | 08:27 |
| xmonad | hello | 08:29 |
| talsemgeest | Hi xmonad :) | 08:29 |
| xmonad | just testing :) | 08:29 |
| mattcen | Meowpup: Just as a point of interest regarding support periods, here's the release cycle graph: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/ubuntu/release-cycle | 08:30 |
| ZykoticK9 | agorist, you might want to try flash in Opera, watching to Google Wave youtube was crappy in Firefox and Chromium, but much better with Opera -- just something to think about | 08:30 |
| sybariten | it seems as if gdebi requires a lot of X stuff, but it shouldnt be an X app AFAIK. Any ideas? | 08:30 |
| sybariten | I mean, any ideas how i could install it with apt-get | 08:30 |
| ZykoticK9 | sybariten, gdebi is Gnome i think | 08:31 |
| sybariten | ZykoticK9: oh | 08:31 |
| tech-mike | agorist: is 10.1 x64 or x32/86 ? | 08:32 |
| jlederman | has anyone played the game "alien arena" ? i'm trying run it, but i'm a noob to ubuntu. I extracted into the directory of my choice successfully, and now the readme is saying to "type ./crx in the shell to run the game..." but when I do that i get "no such file or directory" | 08:32 |
| ZykoticK9 | sybariten, do install a deb you downloaded use "sudo dpkg -i FILENAME.deb" | 08:32 |
| jlederman | also, terminal is pointed towards the directory which I extracted the game to | 08:32 |
| talsemgeest | jlederman: You can install alienarena from the repositories, much easier than downloading it manually | 08:32 |
| sinan | hello everybody, anybody knows about the problem installing php5 on ubuntu 9.10? | 08:33 |
| Meowpup | mattcen: there wsi no standard release of ubuntu to.04 on that graff | 08:33 |
| sinan | i am getting lots of errors about dependencies | 08:33 |
| agorist | tech-mike - the version I just installed is 10.1 x64 (I'm also running ubuntu amd64 and firefox 64bit) | 08:33 |
| jlederman | talsemgeest: good point, i was just experimenting with doing it the old school way and wondering what was going wrong | 08:33 |
| agorist | ZykoticK9 - how do I install opera? | 08:33 |
| talsemgeest | sinan: Make sure your sources are up to date, and perhaps try a different server | 08:33 |
| ZykoticK9 | agorist, enable the partner repository then "sudo apt-get install opera" or use synaptic | 08:34 |
| talsemgeest | jlederman: Does "ls" show up "crx"? | 08:34 |
| tech-mike | agorist: same here i just didnt read anything saying 10.1 was x64 i saw a mention of x86...i am currently using the v10 pre-release released back in july - do u recommend using the 10.1 | 08:34 |
| sinan | ok talsemgeest, thank you, that was what i did not check, probably the servers in turkey are a bit buggy | 08:34 |

| azharcs | Hi guys, I am having some issues with my Acer Laptop wireless connection. Whenever i restart the computer, it works fine. but when it is idle, it disconnects and never reconnects unless again i restart | 08:37 |
| Meowpup | matis it a file or folder ????? | 08:37 |
| agorist | Zykotick9 - "Package opera is not available" after I enabled the partner repository ...? | 08:37 |
| ZykoticK9 | agorist, did you "sudo apt-get update"? | 08:38 |
| azharcs | Does anyone know, how to turn PowerManagement off in iwconfig | 08:38 |
| agorist | tech-mike - It's in beta. I just started using it. Works fine except for the tearing which seems to be common on all flash playback. (I don't know if it's just my system or what) | 08:38 |
| ActionParsnip28 | azharcs: when it disconnects run: dmesg | tail websearch anything interesting | 08:38 |
| azharcs | will try it, | 08:38 |
| ActionParsnip28 | azharcs: i don't think you can. iwconfig is for wifi only, not power | 08:39 |
| agorist | Zykotick9 -- still not available after running update ..? | 08:39 |
| Meowpup | mattcen: is it a file or folder ????? | 08:39 |
| tech-mike | agorist: do we need to use the installer rather than just placing the .so in ./mozilla/plugins ? | 08:39 |
| azharcs | ActionParsnip28: yup but after reading some forum posts, it seems, after disabling power management, it stops disconnecting | 08:39 |
| ActionParsnip28 | azharcs: you could try: man iwconfig just incase | 08:39 |
| mattcen | Meowpup: I'm sorry to say I'm not sure; I'm not in ubuntu currently. Give me a couple of minutes and I'll boot my laptop and check. | 08:40 |
| azharcs | will try that and get back guys, power cut here. will come back and let u know if it worked | 08:40 |
| ZykoticK9 | agorist, ? dunno man - it "should" be there | 08:40 |
| azharcs | Thanks :) | 08:40 |
| miles95 | can any1 tell me wat u do with a server | 08:40 |
| agorist | tech-mike -- I don't know. I just put the .so in plugins and it worked. (I didn't have flash installed previously) | 08:40 |
| meder | for Jaunty - should I use postfix for a local SMTP server? if I try to install it there are issues and it wants me to install some exim mail package | 08:40 |
| agorist | tech-mike - worked after that. | 08:40 |
| ActionParsnip28 | azharcs: maybe you need to disable acpi. you could just rmmod the driver, then modprobe it back in to restart the device | 08:40 |
| meder | what's a simple, preferred SMTP server that I should use for Jaunty basically? | 08:41 |
| ActionParsnip28 | meder: there is no prefered server. | 08:41 |
| ZykoticK9 | agorist, see for some alternatives https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OperaBrowser | 08:41 |
| meder | well | 08:41 |
| ActionParsnip28 | sorry for double post | 08:41 |
| tech-mike | agorist: me either - ive been using v10 which i just copied the .so to ./mozilla/plugins - but when i tried that with the 10.1 .so firefox didnt recognize it | 08:41 |
| meder | Can someone recommend a SMTP server | 08:41 |
| meder | is there a built-in one I can rely on? | 08:41 |
| ActionParsnip28 | !smtpserver | 08:42 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about smtpserver | 08:42 |
| ActionParsnip28 | bah | 08:42 |
| meder | !smtp | 08:42 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu supports the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) and provides mail server software of many kinds. You can install a basic email handling configuration with the "Mail server" task during installation, or with the "tasksel" command. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MailServer and https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/email-services.html | 08:42 |
| mattcen | Meowpup: I usually use postfix myself; but it's really personal preference | 08:42 |
| sharpen047 | hello all would someone mind helping me wiht sound? it keeps saying everying is "broken"i uninstalled pulse audio because it wasnt full duplex | 08:42 |
| agorist | tech-mike - So you didn't see any flashplugin in about:plugins | 08:42 |
| jlederman | this will probably be solved with a restart, but is there anyway to force a volume to unmount? I'm getting this error "DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken." | 08:42 |
| talsemgeest | miles95: Anything you like :) It depends what kind of server you want to run | 08:42 |
| meder | oh | 08:42 |
| meder | so I already have exim4 | 08:42 |
| miles95 | no like wat do they do like run programs or wat ? | 08:42 |
| agorist | Zykotick9 - I'm getting this: Package opera is not available, but is referred to by another package.This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or | 08:43 |
| agorist | is only available from another source | 08:43 |
| talsemgeest | miles95: They are just normal computers, usually running software that "serves" other computers, like apache2 for webpages etc... | 08:43 |
| mattcen | Meowpup: OK so /var/lib/apt/lists/lock is a file that is empty by default, owned by root, primary group root, and permossions 640 | 08:43 |
| Billiard | miles95: servers provide things for clients, we are all connected to an irc server, when you goto a website they are running a web server, is taht what you are asking? | 08:43 |

| ActionParsnip28 | faderhval: that you have more speakers | 08:46 |

| Billiard | SingAlong: compare it to these http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/MD5SUMS | 08:53 |
| mattcen | SingAlong: You should be able to grab the MD5sum file from that url that Billiard just posted, and use md5sum -c MD5SUMS to check all sums in that file. It means you won't have to do a visual compare to see if they're the same, it'll just say "yes they're the same" or not. | 08:53 |

| flagger | hey guys, i'm having a bit of trouble with my postfix server. | 09:30 |
| flagger | Situation is I have spam coming in, spamassassin tags them. Local procmailrc's do whatever they want with them. But our mailing list also points to people on external servers, and we end up getting undelivered mail notifications because they block our spam. How do I get it to stop outgoing mail that has already been tagged? | 09:30 |
| Meowpup | janisozaur: what do you mean how does it do that | 09:30 |
| mattcen | kbp, janisozaur: Here's my justification. The repository part of the CD is inside the '/pool' directory, which on the Ubuntu Desktop CD is only 8.5MB. So while there is a repository on there, it can't be the entire Desktop environment, because that's inside a Squash filesystem in '/casper/filesystem.squashfs', | 09:31 |
| kbp | mattcen: so why is the desktop CD 600MB? :P | 09:31 |
| ZykoticK9 | kane77, i think the game you're playing would require a key-scripting feature for that to work -- because your game is going to be "in focus" you can't have keys being recognized by outside programs (for the most part). This is why Push-To-Talk doesn't work in games for TeamSpeak on Ubuntu... best of luck man. | 09:31 |
| janisozaur | mattcen: you could mount squashfs and use it then ;) | 09:31 |
| llutz | kbp: because the live-cd part needs that space (squashfs-image) | 09:32 |
| mattcen | kbp: Because it's a whole filesystem inside a 668Mb file, and not individual package files you can install | 09:32 |
| janisozaur | Meowpup: bookmarks > manage bookmarks > importing and backups (i'm using localized version, names may vary) | 09:32 |
| mattcen | janisozaur: You can't do that because they're not packages. Well you *could* but it'd be horrendously messy | 09:32 |
| kbp | llutz, janisozaur ok so the right thing to do is extract or mount that image and use it ? | 09:32 |
| llutz | kbp: you cannot | 09:33 |
| Meowpup | thanks janisozaur i found it done | 09:33 |
| kane77 | ZykoticK9, ah :( | 09:33 |
| llutz | kbp: packages have to be in .deb format in a special directory-structure to be used as repo | 09:33 |
| mattcen | kbp: The right thing to do is either download the Alternate CD and use *that* as a reposotory, or install the Desktop version and add the server stuff in later on. | 09:33 |
| janisozaur | llutz: what's the structure in squashfs then? | 09:34 |
| mattcen | ... or download around 300MB of Gnome/KDE other apps for the server version :S | 09:34 |
| llutz | janisozaur: the live-system | 09:34 |
| egonw | terr | 09:34 |
| mattcen | janisozaur: It's the same thing you'd see if you did an ls / on your ubuntu system | 09:34 |
| llutz | janisozaur: compressed image of a working system | 09:34 |
| janisozaur | ahh... | 09:34 |
| mattcen | Which gets copied over during the install; it's an all or nothing deal | 09:34 |
| ZykoticK9 | kbp, why do you want a GUI on your server anyways? | 09:35 |
| kbp | ZykoticK9: I wanna watch movies sometimes and it also runs 2 webcams are surveillance cameras | 09:36 |

| kbp | so finally does the Alternate CD contain sources/repositories or is it just an image? | 09:39 |
| mattcen | kbp: The alternate cd contains the actually packages (as part of its own small repository) | 09:39 |

| greezmunkey | Is there a decent MySQL room here for newbies? | 10:04 |
| llutz | drbobb: why using one of those crappy gui-mailapps if mailx works? | 10:04 |
| nickapalooza | is there any good reason i shouldn't install 64-bit ubuntu? does it function as well as the 32-bit install? | 10:04 |
| drbobb | cwillu_at_work: you may have a point there, still I think it's a bug if evolution fails at that. there's no reason why it should fail | 10:04 |
| drbobb | llutz: yes there's one reason: mailx won't let me specify headers nor add attachments | 10:05 |
| Billiard | nickapalooza: i have no problems, and better performance with 64bit | 10:05 |
| Flannel | greezmunkey: #mysql, but I have no idea how newbie friendly they are. You could also try #ubuntu-offtopic | 10:05 |
| cwillu_at_work | drbobb, not every app needs to support every use-case. Yes, it's a bug, but nobody with the ability to fix it will care enough to actually fix it, because if you need to do that, you probably also need to do a bunch of other things that evolution (or any other gui mailer) doesn't have, and which mailing list packages do have | 10:05 |

| Billiard | Drunkpunk: try manually setting it in the xorg.conf ? | 10:06 |

| theadmin | o_O I can't get higher then 1280x800, but that's better then 800x600 | 10:06 |
| Drunkpunk | tried, all the options are there but they dont have any effect | 10:06 |
| drbobb | cwillu_at_work: there's a reason I don't want to use a mailing list package: my recipient lists are not static, I pull them out of an ssql database every time | 10:06 |
| drbobb | sql that should be | 10:06 |
| Billiard | Drunkpunk: all what options are where? | 10:06 |
| Drunkpunk | all the different screen resolutions | 10:07 |
| cwillu_at_work | drbobb, um, that's exactly the sort of thing that evolution shouldn't have to support, and which any decent mailinglist package should handle perfectly well :p | 10:07 |
| llutz | drbobb: you can attach files to mailx, just uuencode them before and combine that with your message. might not be as comfortable as GUI but ... | 10:07 |
| Billiard | Drunkpunk: you put them in the xorg.conf and it didnt work? you try just specifing the one resolution you want? | 10:07 |
| drbobb | llutz: 99% recipients won't be able to handle such a message | 10:07 |

| azharcs | theadmin: so what did you do? to rectify it | 10:11 |

| azharcs | theadmin: i tried dmesg | tail | 10:12 |
| theadmin | azharcs: I switched back to GNOME, XD. Actually, i've no idea what the hell, but you can try installing wicd network manager instead of default... | 10:12 |
| azharcs | theadmin: yup did that, i removed network-manager and installed wicd and still facing the same problem | 10:13 |
| cwillu_at_work | azharcs, first thing is to reinstall nm and uninstall wicd then, as nobody wants to support non-standard packages :p | 10:13 |

| cwillu_at_work | seriously, I know people mean well, but ubuntuforums is generally a cesspool of system-breaking advice | 10:15 |
| azharcs | cwillu_at_work: oh...ok. I just ran dmesg | tail after connection got disconnected | 10:16 |
| cwillu_at_work | it's main use (for me at least) is as initial research to figure out what has an effect on a problem; only rarely as the final solution | 10:16 |

| cwillu_at_work | azharcs, sudo apt-get install pastebinit | 10:17 |

| llutz | drbobb: have fun adding your 1000 bccs :) | 10:20 |
| cwillu_at_work | diddy, if so, look under the Format menu, for Page | 10:20 |
| === nick_ is now known as Guest29568 | ||
| diddy | cwillu_at_work, already tried that. I changes the format for everything. I simply want to remove the header and margins from one single page so I can add a reference picture scan for my resume there. | 10:21 |
| agorist | For the record: for my machine (ubuntu 9.10 x64, Firefox 3.5.5) Adobe's Beta 10.1 x64 bit linux flash driver works the best | 10:21 |
| drbobb | llutz: for goodness sake even gmail can take a list of addresses in one gulp, why can't evolution?? | 10:21 |
| cwillu_at_work | diddy, you can just drag the margins around | 10:21 |
| cwillu_at_work | diddy, I think you can also place an image directly anywhere without regard for the margins | 10:22 |
| diddy | cwillu_at_work, but I have to remove the header on that page and I can't figure out how. | 10:22 |

| grawity | pirx: If it's bash, then all colour codes have to be wrapped between \[ and \] | 10:24 |

| azharcs | cwillu_at_work: so how do i go about this, is there an work around :( | 10:35 |
| huangxiaobo0810 | 谢谢了 | 10:35 |
| Meowpup | diki like firefox to i use both | 10:35 |
| dickinson | GammaX: well that's strange - 9.10 has pulse audio as default | 10:35 |
| cwillu_at_work | azharcs, try installing linux-backports-modules-karmic and rebooting | 10:35 |
| GammaX | dickinson: even under alsa it says no device | 10:36 |
| sinan | Hi folks, i have a new problem about Apache, can anybody describe me why i get such an error installing php-mysql ? | 10:36 |
| sinan | php5-mysql: Depends: php5-common (= 5.2.10.dfsg.1-2ubuntu6) but 5.2.10.dfsg.1-2ubuntu6.1 is to be installed | 10:36 |
| cwillu_at_work | azharcs, beyond that, read through all (yes, all) the comments on those two bugs, there may be more information that I missed, and if there's ever a fix or good workaround, that's where you'll find it | 10:36 |
| azharcs | cwillu_at_work: apt-get install linux-backports-modules-karmic | 10:36 |
| === histo_ is now known as histo | ||
| dickinson | GammaX: then sorry, don't think I know what the problem is, stay with 9.04 for some time - it is still supported and 9.10 has not too many newer features | 10:37 |
| cybermuttaqin | Do you know ??? What the function about dig tools | 10:37 |
| cybermuttaqin | dig | 10:38 |
| GammaX | dickinson: anything worth switching to 9.10 for? | 10:38 |

| cwillu_at_work | diddy, http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/OOoAuthors_User_Manual/Writer_Guide/Working_with_page_styles | 10:39 |
| azharcs | cwillu_at_work: oh...ok. got it. will read thro the errors and see if i can find anything :) | 10:39 |
| cybermuttaqin | wow thanks | 10:39 |
| dickinson | GammaX: I didn't see any major changes, you know, just good old ubuntu, the same as 9.04 with several major changes, for example, pidgin was substituted for another IM client | 10:39 |
| cybermuttaqin | i understand now | 10:39 |
| azharcs | llutz: it shows me an error | 10:39 |
| diddy | cwillu_at_work, thank you! | 10:39 |
| GammaX | dickinson: roger that, thanks! | 10:39 |
| llutz | azharcs: needs sudo btw | 10:40 |
| cwillu_at_work | diddy, don't thank me yet, I don't know that it works ;p | 10:40 |
| Enul | can anyone help me install a theme please | 10:40 |
| Marco1 | hi everybody | 10:40 |
| mokkan | plugging in my usb mouse seems to have disabled the touchpad on my netbook, unplugging it doesn't help... any ideas? Netbook Remix 9.10 | 10:40 |
| Drunkpunk1 | any advice on configuring Nvidia from terminal? | 10:40 |
| azharcs | llutz: it shows me an error, with sudo. Operation not permitted | 10:40 |
| dickinson | Enul: did you download it? | 10:40 |
| Enul | yes | 10:40 |
| llutz | azharcs: driver-issue, sorry then | 10:40 |
| azharcs | llutz: oh...ok | 10:41 |
| dickinson | Enul: unzip it and open Preferences - Look and Feel (or smth like that). then when you see theme list there just drag and drop your downloaded theme there. You should be done then. | 10:42 |
| cwillu_at_work | diddy, got it, it works :p | 10:42 |
| cwillu_at_work | diddy, just not at all intuitive :p | 10:42 |
| azharcs | cwillu_at_work , llutz: thanks for trying to help. I hope the bug is resolved soon :) | 10:42 |
| diddy | cwillu_at_work, how? | 10:42 |
| Enul | does this work for compiz themes? | 10:42 |
| diddy | cwillu_at_work, that page also doesn't explain how to apply the new style to one single page. | 10:42 |
| Drunkpunk1 | enul: sorry dont understand question | 10:42 |
| cwillu_at_work | diddy, set the style you want on the first page, and then in that style, under the Organizer tab, set "Next Style" to what you want the next page style to be | 10:43 |
| Marco1 | i have a question/problem: I'm using ubuntu 9.10, vlc doesn't want to start from menu, when i click 2 windows open in the bar and then they close | 10:43 |
| Marco1 | any idea? | 10:43 |
| cwillu_at_work | diddy, as far as I can tell, you can't just do a single page by clicking the style, you have to do it the way I just desribed :p | 10:43 |
| Enul | i downloaded a theme but i think i requires compiz-fusion | 10:43 |
| dickinson | Enul: don't remember, maybe no, you should install compiz and emerald or beryl and then you'll be able to install those themes, but i'm not sure about it | 10:43 |
| diddy | cwillu_at_work, I can't. I already have my resume fully written all I want to do is add a reference that I just scanned and add it to the last page. | 10:44 |
| cwillu_at_work | diddy, note that there's a "First Page" page style already which might do exactly what you need | 10:44 |
| aleksander_m | Marco1: Which theme do you have? Had similar problems with f-spot due to not using the default theme... | 10:44 |
| Enul | ok how do i install emerald? | 10:44 |
| cwillu_at_work | diddy, okay, so on the second last page, set "next style" to the style you want for the next page | 10:44 |
| Marco1 | let me check aleksander | 10:44 |
| cwillu_at_work | it's unintuitive, not complicated :p | 10:44 |
| llutz | Marco1: start it from commandline and look for errors | 10:44 |
| dickinson | Enul: try sudo aptitude install emerald) | 10:44 |
| greezmunkey | diddy, it sounds pretty important to you, back it up :p | 10:45 |
| Enul | thanks | 10:45 |
| minusvirus | hello | 10:45 |
| diddy | cwillu_at_work, that is weird. Why do I have to define something like that on the page before the one I want to assign the style to? | 10:45 |
| Marco1 | from command line works but the window is different | 10:45 |
| dickinson | Enul: you can also install a bunch of themes for emerald | 10:45 |
| Marco1 | the theme is customized | 10:45 |
| diddy | greezmunkey, yes. Thx :) | 10:45 |
| cwillu_at_work | diddy, because nobody has ever accused the openoffice dev team of doing things the right way | 10:45 |
| Enul | alright :) thanks | 10:46 |
| Marco1 | from command line vlc starts but I can do nothing | 10:46 |
| dickinson | Enul: but not sure there is a package in 9.04 and 9.10. Maybe you could fetch in from 8.04 or 8.10 repos | 10:46 |
| cellen | hi | 10:46 |
| dickinson | cellen: hi | 10:46 |
| diddy | cwillu_at_work, I am giving up | 10:47 |
| cellen | hello | 10:47 |
| cwillu_at_work | diddy, um, why? I just told you exactly what you need to do | 10:47 |
| diddy | I will ask my colleague tomorrow. I think I can export it to MS Word and he is pretty good in MS Word. | 10:48 |
| Enul | hmm... i installed emerald but i still dont know how to install this theme | 10:48 |
| greezmunkey | cwillu_at_work, or it could be that they are already perilously close to patent infringement and other such things that they couldn't do it in the way that poeple consider "right". Besides, whoever said the MS way is the right way anyhow? | 10:48 |
| Meowpup | any one have a legal copy of windows 7 full release i can have for free | 10:48 |
| diddy | cwillu_at_work, yes I appreciate it. But I nearly spent 2.5 hours on this and I am not a computer newbie. | 10:49 |
| llutz | Meowpup: ask M$, stop trolling here | 10:49 |
| dickinson | Enul: run compiz, choose emerald in the preferences and search emerald or compiz preferences for further info | 10:49 |
| Meowpup | llutz: sorry ok i might just do that | 10:49 |
| diddy | I sort of understand now why MS Office is the market leader. :) | 10:49 |
| Dogmeat_ | 'ello, is it possible to have two versions of some package (e.g. binutils) on same machine, then only use the older version for whatever-reason-there-might-be? | 10:49 |
| Enul | i'm new to linux.. how do i run compiz? | 10:49 |
| diddy | Even though I don't touch M$ stuff at home. | 10:50 |
| greezmunkey | diddy, they are because they were first, that's all. | 10:50 |
| Marco1 | any idea on VLC? | 10:51 |
| gabri | ciao | 10:51 |
| gabri | c'è qualcuno??? | 10:51 |
| drbobb | uh, the glipper panel applet is pretty much broken. Parcellite works a lot better | 10:51 |
| Marco1 | ciao gabri | 10:51 |
| Marco1 | italiano? ;-) | 10:51 |
| gabri | hoanzi sto provando a installare kubunto karmic...ma non mi va | 10:51 |
| gabri | allora ho pensato di uasre dal live | 10:51 |
| gabri | ma mi chiede user e psw... | 10:51 |
| llutz | !it | gabri | 10:51 |
| ubottu | gabri: Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! (click col tasto destro sul nome del canale per entrare) | 10:51 |
| ZykoticK9 | Enul, System / Preferences / Appearance - Visual Effects tab, can you set it to Normal or Extra? | 10:51 |
| greezmunkey | drbobb, any luck importing your email address data? | 10:51 |
| gabri | grazie | 10:52 |
| gabri | ok | 10:52 |
| dickinson | Enul: you should have installed compiz, compiz-fusion, fusion-icon, and some other packages just run aptitude search compiz and see what packages are there and install them. then run fusion-icon and you'll see a blue box with arrow near the clock on panel, right-click it and you'll see the preferences, search there | 10:52 |
| drbobb | greezmunkey: nope, evolution is just not up to the job | 10:52 |
| sinan | "apache2: Depends: apache2.2-common (= 2.2.12-1ubuntu2) but 2.2.12-1ubuntu2.1 is to be installed" ... anybody knows how to fix this? | 10:52 |
| cwillu_at_work | greezmunkey, words cannot express how inane your last comment to me was. I know, I spent the last ten minutes trying to compose a reply :p | 10:52 |
| greezmunkey | drbobb, I can pastebin the csv format if you like | 10:52 |
| Enul | zykoticK9 its set to normal | 10:52 |
| ZykoticK9 | Enul, can you set it to one of the other two options? | 10:53 |
| Juvo | sorry guys, ubuntu keeps asking me to sudo for everything | 10:53 |
| cwillu_at_work | suffice to say that I haven't use ms office in years, and as such am most definitely not accusing ooo of not being sufficiently msoffice-like | 10:53 |
| Enul | yes | 10:53 |
| Juvo | i.e. i'm trying to create a railsapp | 10:53 |
| Juvo | and its asking me to sudo for it | 10:53 |
| Juvo | even for git init | 10:53 |
| Juvo | whereas it didnt before | 10:53 |
| dickinson | ZykoticK9: means acceleration is ok for him | 10:53 |
| jphillips86 | if I need a python script to run at login, where is the best place to put it? (Not home folder if possible) | 10:53 |
| cwillu_at_work | Juvo, what folder are you in? | 10:53 |
| ZykoticK9 | Enul, if Extra is working you should have wobbling windows, do you? | 10:53 |
| greezmunkey | cwillu_at_work, If I struck a nerve I am sorry, you must have some personal involvement. | 10:53 |
| Juvo | cwillu_at_work: i'm in ~/ | 10:53 |
| Enul | yes i do | 10:54 |
| Juvo | cwillu_at_work: or home, rather | 10:54 |
| cwillu_at_work | Juvo, you can't write to /home directly, you don't own it | 10:54 |
| dickinson | Enul: did you see what i said to do? | 10:54 |
| cwillu_at_work | greezmunkey, I was thinking you had some, as a matter of fact :p | 10:54 |
| ZykoticK9 | Enul, then you should install compizconfig-settings-manager and play to your hearts content ;) | 10:54 |
| grawity | cwillu_at_work: I think he meant his homwdir. | 10:54 |
| Enul | yes i did i'm doing it now thanks dickinson | 10:54 |
| grawity | cwillu_at_work: homedir* -- not /home | 10:54 |
| greezmunkey | cwillu_at_work, Nope, I'm with you in fact :) | 10:55 |
| Juvo | cwillu_at_work: but if i try and create an application, i.e. railsapp, it will not allow me to do so..I don't know why | 10:55 |
| dickinson | Enul: ok, just thought you might miss it, nevermind | 10:55 |
| cwillu_at_work | greezmunkey, judging from your voiced opinions, I doubt that :p | 10:55 |
| Juvo | it used to allow me before | 10:55 |
| Juvo | its also screwing with my ssh authentications in git | 10:55 |
| cwillu_at_work | Juvo, what's the exact path you're in right now | 10:55 |
| huangxiaobo0810 | ylmf1.5在虚拟机里安装和在机器上安装怎么不同阿 | 10:55 |
| Enul | how do i install the compizconfig-settins manager | 10:56 |
| Juvo | cwillu_at_work: could you tell me the cmd to check that? | 10:56 |
| cwillu_at_work | pwd | 10:56 |
| grawity | Juvo: pwd | 10:56 |
| Juvo | /home/user | 10:56 |
| cwillu_at_work | Juvo, what does "ls -ld ." say? | 10:56 |
| Juvo | drwxr-xr-x 62 root user 4096 2009-11-23 02:52 . | 10:57 |
| grawity | Juvo: Well your homedir is owned by root, for some strange reason. | 10:57 |
| cwillu_at_work | Juvo, root owns your home directory, you screwed up somewhere :p | 10:57 |
| Juvo | yeah i knew i did something wrong somewhere | 10:57 |
| grawity | Juvo: sudo chown -R user ~user/ | 10:57 |
| Drunkpunk1 | enul: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFqj2hS_0iQ | 10:57 |
| greezmunkey | cwillu_at_work, besides being off topic (which I started, my bad) I think a re-read would show only that I was offering a possible explination for the fact that OO does things the way that they do. I happen to be very impressed with it, and have een using it for quite a while. | 10:58 |
| Juvo | chown: cannot access `/home/raj/.gvfs': Permission denied | 10:58 |
| Enul | thanks | 10:58 |
| grawity | Ignore the .gvfs message. | 10:58 |
| Drunkpunk1 | she's awesome | 10:58 |
| dickinson | Enul: this is a package called ccsm or smth | 10:58 |
| grawity | !ccsm | 10:58 |
| ubottu | To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or 'simple-ccsm'. If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz | 10:58 |

| Drunkpunk1 | greezmunkey: cant find type the file location properly even though it just on mydesktop | 12:23 |
| dstaubsauger | kbp: if anything goes wrong, just uninstall the packages. it should not break too much (make a backup of your data if you want to be sure not to lose anything, you should do that anyway) | 12:24 |
| Younder | christopher, You can make do without nvidea drivers, althoght that will limit the graphics. As a workaround to, just get things running, that is what would do | 12:24 |
| christopher | Younder: ok. I think i may have to go back to 9.04. Had to do a bit of modification but things worked better there. Thanks | 12:25 |

| Younder | moparirc_jfw0r, I don't know using ant. Or in an environment like eclipse | 12:34 |
| moparirc_jfw0r | I am not sure | 12:35 |

| rednammoc | hi guys. i have a strange problem setting up virtualbox. when i start "etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup" it tells me that it cannot find kernel-source "2.6.24-25". i also installed "linux source" cause i thought that will solve the problem. has anybody an idea whats going on or how to solve this problem ? | 12:37 |
| boscop | my ubuntu karmic takes 50 seconds to boot from grub menu till login window and another 20 from login to desktop. this seems to be slow. how can I make it faster? I already did 'profile' in the boot options for one time | 12:38 |
| marijuana | Dr_Willis: I mean, i install & open that program successfully... no error :) | 12:38 |
| flippo | marijuana, http://openproj.org/ | 12:39 |
| ZaNeIuM | is there an automatic way to run a program when my computer comes out of sleep | 12:39 |
| Younder | boscop, Well It's all down to what deamonds you are starting. Have you added many? | 12:39 |
| xpo0f | meaning ? | 12:39 |
| boscop | Younder: only dhclient and synergys | 12:40 |
| marijuana | i am happy with linux, so i dont want change to windoz because of my project.. that why i try with gambas, it look very good | 12:40 |
| Glowball | I was just wondering: is there some "GNOME version of KWin", so some cool compositing manager, which is more stable than Compiz (and compatibility with Maple would be handy too, Compiz is not...) | 12:40 |
| Younder | boscop, Well the normal advice here is to remove all services you don't use. The defragment the boot sequence (If you had enough clearsight to put the OS in a seperate partion) | 12:42 |
| Younder | boscop, just defragment that partion | 12:42 |
| xpo0f | im always wit fluxbox .. really light | 12:42 |
| LjL | Younder: how? | 12:43 |
| Drunkpunk1 | just wondering, how to get ubuntu to recognise my display - thinking this may be why i cant change from 800x600 screen res? | 12:43 |
| elky | marijuana, please look at the PM i sent you. | 12:43 |
| Dr_Willis | Glowball: metacity i think has some basic compositing features | 12:43 |
| VCoolio | Glowball: there's only xcompmgr; it doesn't get cooler than compiz | 12:44 |
| xpo0f | Drunkpunk1, do your dpkg-reconfigure xcommon-xorg for display setting | 12:44 |
| giovani360 | How can I download canon MPX330 printer drivers? | 12:44 |
| boscop | Younder: it's all one one partition which is 99% full. how do I defragment it? | 12:44 |
| boscop | fdisk? | 12:44 |
| rednammoc | hi guys. i have a strange problem setting up virtualbox. when i start "etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup" it tells me that it cannot find kernel-source "2.6.24-25". i also installed "linux source" cause i thought that will solve the problem. has anybody an idea whats going on or how to solve this problem ? | 12:45 |
| xpo0f | defragment ? | 12:45 |
| Drunkpunk1 | xpo0f: cheers mate, wasnt sure that one was for me | 12:45 |
| Glowball | Dr_Willis: Well, yes, I know it does compositing, true. But there aren't any cool effects to impress Windows users (;D) and it doesn't work 100% with AWN (which I use on GNOME) | 12:45 |
| sergeykish | Hello, I need bash completion for my tool. It must complete path from diretory file. The file (lets call it .available) is a list of tags `a, b, c`. Do you know simular completion? | 12:46 |
| sergeykish | Or program with simular completion | 12:46 |
| Younder | boscop, It is better to forget defragmenting as it is probaly not the problem | 12:46 |
| Drunkpunk1 | xpo0f: apparently "xcommon-xorg is not installed" | 12:46 |
| xpo0f | Drunkpunk1, u run on init 5 or init 3 | 12:47 |
| Younder | boscop, It takes years of use on a full disk. Do you have a near full disk? | 12:47 |
| Drunkpunk1 | sorry to be a total noob but not sure | 12:47 |
| boscop | Younder: yes. yesterday it was 100% full, I had to delete stuff | 12:48 |
| xpo0f | boscop, do u have quota for that ? | 12:48 |

| ubottu | Crumbles: 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? | 12:50 |
| gwadeloop | this morning Ubuntu decided to welcome me with a special gift I can only start it "in gnome failsafe mode" | 12:50 |
| Dr_Willis | Crumbles: if you mean 'dd' ask the actual question and see who knows what. | 12:50 |
| Crumbles | ahhaha | 12:50 |
| Crumbles | ok | 12:50 |
| xpo0f | Drunkpunk1, apt-get install xcommon-xorg | 12:50 |
| Crumbles | well | 12:50 |
| Crumbles | I am trying to clear a drive | 12:50 |
| Crumbles | so | 12:50 |
| Crumbles | I am running the command | 12:50 |
| Crumbles | sudo dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sdc | 12:50 |
| FloodBot1 | Crumbles: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 12:50 |
| LjL | boscop: no. not with the partition mounted. | 12:51 |
| gwadeloop | I assume that this is due to a regression in one of the update but I have no idea how to revert to my previous stable configuration | 12:51 |
| Crumbles | will that wipe the drive? | 12:51 |
| xpo0f | boscop, run on safemode to do that | 12:51 |
| Enul | anyone know a good sidebar for ubuntu? | 12:51 |
| Younder | boscop, It should run at startup | 12:51 |
| === Reactor_ is now known as Reactor | ||
| LjL | Crumbles: why don't you use a tool made for the purpose, such as "wipe" or "shred"? | 12:51 |
| Drunkpunk1 | xpo0f: "E: Couldn't find package xcommon-xorg" | 12:52 |
| Dr_Willis | Crumbles: using urandom is over kill. and dont forget a 'bs=' option. or it will take 3x as long. | 12:52 |
| xpo0f | Drunkpunk1, do u run X ? | 12:52 |
| Younder | boscop, Anyhow there's your problem. Files are getting fragment because you have too lilttle space. Try to remove some of the stuff you don't need. | 12:52 |
| boscop | xpo0f: recovery mode? | 12:52 |
| xpo0f | boscop, yes. | 12:52 |
| LjL | Dr_Willis: why overkill? | 12:53 |
| Drunkpunk1 | i'm just using a fresh install, been using ubuntu about, what 2 wks | 12:53 |
| boscop | xpo0f: and then? should I login normally or on the terminal? | 12:53 |
| Drunkpunk1 | first time on IRC l;ast nite | 12:53 |
| xpo0f | boscop, yeah... recovery mode is on runlevel 2, after all finish.. you con continue to init 5 or init 3 | 12:54 |
| Drunkpunk1 | the drivers i'm using are nvidia ones | 12:54 |
| Dr_Willis | LjL: whats to gain? vs /dev/random or just /dev/zero he just wants to 'clear a drive' | 12:54 |
| Dr_Willis | LjL: or for that matter.. just deleteing the partitons/reformating :) | 12:55 |
| xpo0f | Drunkpunk1, wrong commang... dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 12:55 |
| xpo0f | :( | 12:55 |
| Crumbles | Dr_Willis: bs= optiokn? | 12:55 |
| LjL | Dr_Willis: vs /dev/random, /dev/random will be *exceedingly* slower. vs /dev/zero, zeroing gives a *much* lower level of security | 12:55 |
| xpo0f | LjL, agree | 12:55 |
| Crumbles | Dr_Willis: bs= option ? | 12:55 |
| Dr_Willis | LjL: he dident say it was to be secure. :) | 12:55 |
| LjL | Dr_Willis: i assume that he's trying to erase the drive securely, or he wouldn't bother erasing it in the first place. | 12:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Crumbles: yes. dd has a bs option. use it. | 12:56 |
| boscop | xpo0f: so login on terminal, then fsck and then init 5? | 12:56 |
| Crumbles | right, trying to do it securly | 12:56 |
| Crumbles | what does BS do ? | 12:56 |
| Dr_Willis | LjL: ive seen people do weirder things. :) | 12:56 |
| Drunkpunk1 | xpo0f: just did and it returned straight to a new blank line | 12:56 |
| Dr_Willis | Crumbles: sets the default blocksize. will improve speed | 12:56 |
| LjL | Dr_Willis: i think it's reasonably to assure someone who intends to use random data to erase a drive wants to do it securely | 12:56 |
| Crumbles | what should I set the BS to ? | 12:56 |
| Dr_Willis | Crumbles: most dd examples use 1024 or similer. | 12:56 |
| LjL | Crumbles: but seriously, if you want it to be secure, consider "wipe". | 12:56 |
| aftertaf | hi : i shotdown my PC yesterday and today it 'died' on me . . . . i can't even access GRUB on startup. Can anyone help me diagnose and repair? Booted to a live USB key right now | 12:57 |
| Crumbles | well | 12:57 |
| Crumbles | my question is | 12:57 |
| Dr_Willis | Crumbles: yes.. what LjL said.. | 12:57 |
| Dr_Willis | Crumbles: ive only used dd in the past to 'zero' a drive that was badly messed up | 12:57 |
| Crumbles | I am running DD now, and I don't see anything on the drive when I browse it. although I know it's working because fdisk says the partition is screwed now. | 12:57 |
| Crumbles | what is wipe? | 12:57 |
| xpo0f | Drunkpunk1, are u sure | 12:57 |
| LjL | !info wipe | Crumbles | 12:57 |

| LjL | !info shred > Crumbles | 12:57 |
| demonave666 | hi all | 12:57 |
| Dr_Willis | Crumbles: why are you even bothering to do all this? | 12:57 |
| Pici | shred is in coreutils, its not a separate package. | 12:58 |
| Meowpup | oh i gtg my woman is calling from the bedroom i need to go :) :o) | 12:58 |
| Crumbles | because I have a hard drive that I want to have all the data securly deleted before I toss it. | 12:58 |
| yml | what is the difference between "gnome failsafe" and "gnome" I can login using the first one but not using the second one | 12:58 |
| maggott | Meowpup: you lucky bastard. | 12:58 |
| grawity | Crumbles: Get a hammer or something | 12:58 |
| Dr_Willis | Crumbles: use a hammer to it.. :) | 12:58 |
| aftertaf | i get I/O error when running parted etc, and HDD nort even seen in my system, only in BIOS | 12:58 |
| Crumbles | lol | 12:58 |
| Crumbles | that will be my next step :) | 12:58 |
| Drunkpunk1 | xpo0F: 'fraid so | 12:58 |
| Dr_Willis | Crumbles: or just keep it for a spare. put it in a usb enclosure | 12:58 |
| simplexio | aftertaf: hd died ? | 12:58 |
| Meowpup | na my woman is what i call my mum lol | 12:58 |
| Dr_Willis | Crumbles: or take it apart - the magnets in hard drives - make GREAT magnets for the fridge. those things hold like 100 papers | 12:59 |
| Crumbles | yea, it has a ton of VoIP stuff on it that is still valid information. this used to be my asterisk computers hard drive. | 12:59 |
| yml | the difference seems to includes the graphic driver (nvidia) | 12:59 |
| Meowpup | get that maggott ^ | 12:59 |
| Dr_Willis | Crumbles: so use whipe or shred. | 12:59 |
| LjL | Dr_Willis: and are also a bit dangerous to handle for that reason :P | 12:59 |
| Crumbles | LjL: if I use bs=1024 would that still be a secure wipe? | 12:59 |
| aftertaf | simplexio: looks that way, just like that, the bstd worked fine yesterday. I booted this morning and gnome just froze 'TM' | 12:59 |
| Dr_Willis | LjL: :) yep. | 12:59 |
| Crumbles | whipe or wipe ? | 12:59 |
| Drunkpunk1 | xpo0f: heres what it says in terminal E: Couldn't find package xcommon-xorg | 12:59 |
| Drunkpunk1 | munch@munch-desktop:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 12:59 |
| Drunkpunk1 | munch@munch-desktop:~$ | 12:59 |
| aftertaf | simplexio: any recovery hopes? | 12:59 |
| Dr_Willis | Crumbles: if you want secure = use the tools mentioned. not dd | 12:59 |
| Crumbles | ok | 12:59 |
| LjL | Crumbles: i don't think bs influences the security of the wipe. the fact you're using a tool not made for the job probably does, on the other hand. | 12:59 |
| Crumbles | is wipe faster than dd? | 12:59 |
| Younder | boscop, This would be the point where I warn about running drives above about 80% capacity | 13:00 |
| Dr_Willis | Crumbles: does it matter? :) | 13:00 |
| Crumbles | yea, good point | 13:00 |
| grawity | Crumbles: Secure wipe is _never_ faster | 13:00 |
| Crumbles | ok, let me get wipe. | 13:00 |
| Crumbles | lol, true. | 13:00 |
| simplexio | aftertaf: maybe.. if bios sees it, its electronic component are ok, but if you cant really access to it then it sound like it dosent spind or read head just dont want to work | 13:00 |
| Dr_Willis | if you want fast - get a hammer | 13:00 |
| maggott | Dr_Willis: a good electromagnet usually does the trick. Those at scrap yards work fine. ;-) | 13:00 |
| Dr_Willis | Hard drive platters look great on the Xmas tree! | 13:00 |
| Crumbles | sudo apt-get install wipe -- right? | 13:00 |
| LjL | right. | 13:00 |
| xpo0f | :) | 13:00 |
| boscop | Younder: but I have not much disk space | 13:00 |
| LjL | Crumbles: then "man wipe" and if you feel like reading more "man shred" | 13:01 |
| Dr_Willis | maggott: we got demaganitizing things at work :) they will destroy your wrist watch | 13:01 |
| maggott | Dr_Willis: why haven't I thought of that before? Dammit, why did I throw away all my old disks. | 13:01 |
| aftertaf | simplexio: so, a quick slapping might help? When i activate SMART in BIOS, i dont even get to the BIOS boot menu . . . . | 13:01 |
| Crumbles | sorry for asking so many questions, I'm really new to linux... hence me using DD apparently totally wrong... :) | 13:01 |
| xpo0f | apt-cache search wire for sure | 13:01 |
| Dr_Willis | maggott: the wife has several hanging in her room/window for rainbow mirrors :) | 13:01 |
| LjL | Crumbles: it's not wrong, it's just sub-optimal. | 13:01 |
| Crumbles | does wipe have a gui ? | 13:01 |
| Younder | boscop, well you have two options, get a larger drive or putting up with the slownes | 13:02 |
| LjL | Crumbles: no, wipe and shred are CLI tools. | 13:02 |
| aftertaf | any way of trying to recover it? or is it screwed FUBAR style ? | 13:02 |
| Crumbles | which do you like better LjL ? | 13:02 |
| maggott | Crumbles: read the man pages for wipe (man wipe). They are pretty conclusive. Ask again if there's anything that's unclear. | 13:02 |
| boscop | Younder: it's a laptop | 13:02 |
| boscop | Younder: why does it slow booting down so much to have above 80% full? | 13:03 |
| xpo0f | boscop, im not sure about that | 13:03 |
| === [A]KangB is now known as [A]Way | ||
| LjL | Crumbles: "wipe" is more flexible i guess, but i think they more or less do the job equally well. | 13:04 |
| unixhag | I have nothing at /usr/bin/java. It seems that ubuntu (karmic) no longer comes with a JRE pre-installed. Is that correct? | 13:04 |
| Crumbles | wait, it looks like wipe pulls from urandom as well... | 13:04 |
| unixhag | because according to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java it should be there | 13:04 |
| Crumbles | isn't this the same as dd? | 13:04 |
| Younder | boscop, well if have framentation sectors are scattered all over the disk. Normally it would fix this itself, but it needs a certain amount of free disk space to 'remembers' sectors it moves around. If it get's too full it just gives up. | 13:04 |
| grawity | Crumbles: I think 'wipe' is for wiping separate files | 13:05 |
| bigmack83_ | i have multiple iso dvd's i want to extract the chapters from. i want to take all the episodes in each dvd and extract them each to their own .wmv video. the reason for this is so i can connect my hard drive to various devices such as an xbox 360 or some dvd players to watch the movies. so what would be the best way to extract the episodes to wmv files like this? | 13:05 |
| Crumbles | great... that doesnt help me then | 13:05 |
| simplexio | boscop: and usually its bad idea to run / systems that full, or /home full. gnome etc.. use tmp files which need to be there | 13:05 |

| JonathanEllis | Im just about to start developing a website. I have a little html and css experience but it was all a long time ago. I need to decide on a web development environment. At the moment I am considering SeaMonkey and QuantaPlus. Ideally I want to use a wysiwyg editor but I am not afraid to get under the hood and edit the code directly when necessary. What are your recommendations and why? Thanks for your time. | 13:10 |
| Dr_Willis | unixhag: ive always installed the sun java here. | 13:10 |
| maggott | ganymede: let the client run as a user that has write acces in /var/run. | 13:10 |
| ahtmly2k | Dr_Willis : yeah but i need to know its address.. /dev/somthing | 13:10 |
| Dr_Willis | ahtmly2k: check dmesdg output when you plug it in | 13:10 |
| aftertaf | simplexio: running testdisk, finds no partitions :( | 13:10 |

| Crumbles | so -- I am wanting to wipe out everything under sdc... sdc1 sdc2, etc. so, is this command correct: wipe -fr -l 1024k /dev/sdc | 13:11 |
| JonathanEllis | maggott: Thanks. What are the benefits of that? | 13:11 |
| unixhag | Dr_Willis: Thanks much for the recommendation. It's a bit of a catch for new ubuntu users/admins, being mis-documented like that. | 13:11 |
| ganymede | maggott, meaning create a folder for the daemon and make a designated user for the daemon? | 13:11 |
| ganymede | maggott, like create a folder in /var/run that allows the daemon's username to write a pid file into it? | 13:12 |
| Dr_Willis | unixhag: i always just install ubuntu-restricted-extras first thing. It grabs it and more for me. but im not on a 'server' | 13:12 |
| Younder | boscop, not that I know of. I'll check | 13:12 |
| Dr_Willis | unixhag: that guide/doc seems a bit old. | 13:12 |
| maggott | ganymede: Read up on linux file permissions. You seem to need that. | 13:12 |
| unixhag | oooh, ubuntu-restricted-extras, I must look that up, thanks, sounds useful | 13:12 |

| pnema | I moved my /home to a new partition, have new space, life is good, thx unkmar | 14:42 |

| tom_ | hi guys.... short question about kate: is it possible to configure kate somehow to always us an already open session, when opening a new file? and use a new tab within that session? I know this is possble via commandline.. but there must be some way to do this at a "single" place for all text files that are opened by defulat with kate | 14:46 |
| bigmack83_ | ActionParsnip, ah thanks. will check it out | 14:46 |

| ActionParsnip | freakunleashd: if on has a tonne of cache and the other has very little it may affect the speed. You should check cache when you buy drives, as well as look at seek times ;) | 14:47 |

| igors | hello, i'm trying to mount a HFS+ partition with rw permissions. I can do that with mount -rw ..., but i need rw access to some "internal" foldes inside it, like /System/Library, and it's just r. | 14:48 |
| _Ray_ | Small question. I know my port 1337 is open to the internet. Could I ask someone to check if it's my sshd who responds on port 1337 at fedelebron.com? (I know it works locally, but I'm going to be needing it later on today) | 14:48 |
| trevorj | igors: hfs+ is only read-writable if you turn the journal off in os x | 14:49 |
| erUSUL | neoTheCat: install the different servers ( samba nfs ftp? etc ) check if ebox is a good solution for configuring ... | 14:49 |
| trevorj | igors: oh, forget what I said | 14:49 |
| trevorj | igors: you're having permissions issurs | 14:49 |
| trevorj | igors: access it as root | 14:49 |
| igors | trevorj: yes...i am root | 14:49 |
| trevorj | igors: sudo -i will give you a root shell | 14:49 |
| xpo0f | trevorj, sudo | 14:49 |
| trevorj | xpo0f: ? | 14:49 |
| freakunleashd | I have 8mb cache on the 320gb and 4 mb on 160 gb hdd | 14:50 |
| trevorj | igors: if you're root, you should have access to all | 14:50 |
| d4non_ | should I uninstall Opera before installing the new one from .deb package? How do I uninstall it later? | 14:50 |
| ActionParsnip | freakunleashd: i dont think it would affect it hugely, maybe there is some channel issue, and you should connect the drive to a different controller | 14:50 |
| xpo0f | trevorj, and then ? | 14:50 |
| === d4non_ is now known as d4non | ||
| freakunleashd | Copying to external usb hdd is also very very slow | 14:50 |
| igors | trevorj: yeah, but i don't, some specific folders inside the mac particiona i can access (the unique one i need) | 14:50 |
| freakunleashd | tried everything in two days, I think its a dma problem | 14:50 |
| freakunleashd | my dma is not being used | 14:51 |
| trevorj | igors: ah. you can try chmoding it | 14:51 |
| freakunleashd | I read about it somewhere I don't know | 14:51 |
| Younder | sudo apt-get install sysinfo | 14:51 |
| Younder | then look at the drives | 14:52 |
| igors | trevorj: chmod u+w folder gives me the errors "Read-only filesystem"... | 14:52 |
| trevorj | freakunleashd: you can find out with hdparm or sdparm | 14:52 |
| freakunleashd | okay I'll do it | 14:52 |
| Younder | particulary the sector formatting | 14:52 |
| trevorj | igors: ok, run dmesg | 14:52 |
| trevorj | igors: see if it says it mounted it read only | 14:52 |
| trevorj | igors: I bet you have journalling turned on for the fs | 14:52 |
| igors | yes, i have | 14:52 |
| d4non | should I uninstall Opera (installed from repos) before installing the new version from .deb package? How do I uninstall it later? | 14:52 |
| trevorj | igors: you need to boot into os x and turn off journalling disk utility | 14:52 |
| igors | the problem is that my os x is not booting anymore... | 14:52 |
| unkmar | igors: you must turn off the journalling for the hfs. | 14:53 |
| trevorj | igors: boot into your os x cd | 14:53 |
| ActionParsnip | d4non: sudo apt-get --pure remove opera or sudo dpkg -r opera | 14:53 |
| freakunleashd | I'll try installing it now will be back | 14:53 |
| trevorj | igors: you need to run diskutil in the command line | 14:53 |
| trevorj | igors: to turn off journalling | 14:53 |
| trevorj | igors: then you can mount it rw | 14:53 |
| igors | i accidentaly removed a file from /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/, and it's not booting anymore, i'm trying to write it back | 14:53 |
| ActionParsnip | d4non: the dpkg command will leave the config so you can use sudo dpkg -P opera to clear that out | 14:53 |

| ActionParsnip | Younder: no crappy firefox for me | 14:54 |
| Younder | ActionParsnip, I use chrome these days | 14:55 |
| OttifantSir | d4non: I only download the package of Opera, close Opera and install the upgrade, then start Opera again. Never had any problems doing it like that | 14:55 |
| igors | trevorj: it's seems you're a mac geek too, so let me ask: i've installed an app that starts a daemon in boot, but i removed the .plist file from /System/Library/LaunchDaemons for it, and my mac is not booting anymore | 14:55 |

| unkmar | jimi_neutral: what exactly are you trying to accomplish? | 14:57 |
| trevorj | igors: lol, I see | 14:57 |
| erUSUL | neoTheCat: if you want the simple way then the freenas/openfiler route is best imho | 14:57 |
| trevorj | igors: did you make a copy of the plist | 14:57 |
| trevorj | igors: or just delete it | 14:57 |
| david__ | hello | 14:57 |
| jimi_neutral | unkmar, well i am using it as a cloning machine....all i need on it is clonezilla but it means configuring two network cards...one for internet and one for the cloning process | 14:58 |
| igors | trevorj: i've deleted it, but i just found in the project sources (google code) | 14:58 |
| trevorj | igors: have you tried booting your mac into single user mode? | 14:58 |
| neoTheCat | erUSUL: i was looking into that, but i only have one spare box, and i need to run subversion, postgres and apache | 14:58 |
| trevorj | igors: you can force it to mount as rw if you want, but I've had corruption doing that with a journalled hfs+ filesystem | 14:58 |
| erUSUL | neoTheCat: ahh ok; multipupose server ... ok good luck | 14:59 |
| trevorj | igors: so I recommend not doing it | 14:59 |
| igors | trevorj: no, but the app is installed for all users...do you think it would work? | 14:59 |

| jimi_neutral | unkmar, i had this troublew when i first did it and im guessing that i will need to install the gui desktop cause i dont know if you can control clonezilla from command line | 14:59 |
| igors | i understand... | 14:59 |
| trevorj | igors: single user mode is also known as safe mode | 14:59 |
| neoTheCat | erUSUL: thanks. been unemployed for seven months, so i need to make due with what i have :) | 14:59 |
| trevorj | igors: have you tried going into disk utility and repairing your drive? | 14:59 |
| jimi_neutral | unkmar, i would rather not though if it is possible, but thats another matter, first i need to get these network int's sorted | 14:59 |
| igors | trevorj: hum...do you think is possible to remove a record somewhere, that makes OS X forget about this app? | 14:59 |
| igors | trevorj: nops, i can't boot to it anymore... | 15:00 |
| trevorj | igors: I don't know exactly where a keylogger would store it's startup information, it more than likely does some secret squirrel stuff | 15:00 |
| xpo0f | :) | 15:00 |
| trevorj | igors: I meant boot it into your cd | 15:00 |

| andrewboktor | hi guys, i want to see the ubuntu boot up messages? how can i disable the flashscreen and show these instead? | 15:00 |
| * Younder is wasy | 15:00 | |
| unkmar | jimi_neutral: you might want to backup current settings. first. | 15:00 |
| trevorj | andrewboktor: in grub, type "e" on the entry you want to edit | 15:00 |
| trevorj | andrewboktor: take the "splash" out of the boot arguments | 15:00 |
| trevorj | Anacranom: then press "b" to boot | 15:01 |
| trevorj | er | 15:01 |
| trevorj | andrewboktor: then press "b" to boot | 15:01 |

| ActionParsnip | andrewboktor: to make it permanent run: gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub | 15:02 |
| unkmar | jimi_neutral: man ifconfig | 15:02 |
| igors | trevorj: ok, thanks! | 15:02 |
| trevorj | igors: np | 15:02 |
| unkmar | jimi_neutral: /etc/network/interfaces is a file that you can edit. | 15:02 |
| ActionParsnip | andrewboktor: you can remove the boot option there, save the file then run: sudo update-grub | 15:02 |
| ActionParsnip | andrewboktor: or simply uninstall xspash and usplash | 15:02 |

| friendishan | how do i ping a site in ubuntu? | 15:25 |
| Dr_Willis | Walmor: compare it to mine. Ive copied my xorg.conf to radically different machines thenjust ran the nvidia-settings tool. it will change what parts need to be changed. | 15:25 |
| OttifantSir | How can I open my 8.04.3 Server to accept HTTP-connections. I have edited hosts.deny to include portmap : ALL, and I need to access the CUPS-webinterface (port 631) | 15:25 |
| trism | Walmor: if nvidia-settings is complaining about not being able to parse the file, just mv your current xorg.conf to a backup and it should work fine | 15:25 |

| ActionParsnip | friendishan: same as any other OS | 15:26 |
| maco | friendishan: with the ping command | 15:26 |
| hudnix | Has anyone managed to get chrome working correctly as the browser launched by the jvm? chrome doesn't seem to understant the "openurl" command that the jvm wraps urls in. | 15:26 |
| ActionParsnip | friendishan: ping is universal | 15:26 |
| djura-san | friendishan_ ping site_url | 15:26 |
| Doonz | Hey how can i check what version of apache is installed on my box? | 15:26 |
| ActionParsnip | friendishan: i recommend: ping -c 4 dest | 15:26 |
| Dr_Willis | pong! | 15:26 |
| sledgeas | is nautilus' "Open as administrator" available with default installation of 9.10 ? | 15:26 |
| ActionParsnip | Doonz: dpkg -l | grep apache | 15:26 |
| Doonz | thank you | 15:26 |
| OttifantSir | sledgeas: No | 15:26 |
| friendishan | ActionParsnip: so i just need to do the same i do in windows cmd in terminal here? | 15:27 |
| OttifantSir | sledgeas: You need to install it | 15:27 |
| jfewings_ | ActionParsnip, its finding my 10/100 which is the dhcp one that goes to outside which is an onboard card but it is not finding my gigabit one which is the private one for eth2 | 15:27 |
| ActionParsnip | friendishan: yes, why didnt you try it first? | 15:27 |
| Dumbix | ping all | 15:27 |
| sledgeas | OttifantSir: thanks, means i will have to go to my friends' and sudo apt-get install nautilus-gksu | 15:27 |
| sledgeas | ;) | 15:27 |
| ActionParsnip | jfewings_: maybe it needs a driver | 15:27 |
| Alvin | would this work if i reinstall my wubi installation and then overwrite the root.disk with my old root.disk? | 15:27 |
| OttifantSir | sledgeas: That would be the way, yes | 15:27 |
| jfewings_ | ActionParsnip, this is where im screwed, im not on gui, this is all just the bare shell and i am failry new to linux | 15:28 |
| Binaridragon | ActionParsnip, but if you run the nvidia-settings that should created xorg.conf file for you....can anyone correct me if im worng | 15:28 |
| friendishan | ActionParsnip : ok i will try | 15:28 |
| ActionParsnip | jfewings_: doesnt need gui | 15:28 |
| ActionParsnip | Binaridragon: no, it can write to it if one exists and can be parsed | 15:28 |
| jfewings_ | ActionParsnip, aye, but as i said ...linux newb lol | 15:28 |
| Supersaiyan_IV | Anyone with experience of running Screamer 2 in dosbox? | 15:28 |
| ActionParsnip | Binaridragon: a none existant file will fail parsing | 15:29 |
| Binaridragon | ActionParsnip, can we create and empty one maybe | 15:29 |
| ActionParsnip | jfewings_: use the lshw output to fid the method to install the driver for the device | 15:29 |
| Binaridragon | with touch xorg.conf | 15:29 |
| ActionParsnip | Binaridragon: yes with: sudo nvidia-xconfig | 15:29 |
| Binaridragon | ActionParsnip, your the man ;) | 15:29 |
| jfewings_ | ActionParsnip, how do i scroll up | 15:29 |
| ActionParsnip | jfewings_: just rerun the command | 15:30 |
| sipior | OttifantSir: have you verified that cupsd is running on the machine? have you made a hole for it in whatever firewall you have erected? | 15:30 |
| Binaridragon | jfewings_, run cat filename | less | 15:30 |
| Dr_Willis | Binaridragon: i do think part of the issue may also be mixxing sections from the xorg.conf but in the past i just run nvidia-settings and have it save to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.nvidia-generated then copied that file to xorg.conf and it worked | 15:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Binaridragon: if it moans about a missing section you can rename the monitor section to keep it happy. You will need to edit the screen section too if thechanges affect that too | 15:30 |
| friendishan | ACtionparsnip: is it a different command for -t in ubuntu? | 15:30 |
| jfewings_ | ActionParsnip, there is too much i need to scroll up | 15:30 |
| phxheat | I was curious as to why the scroll bar starts moving upward after some time in the chat room and I have to pull it down to see new posts. My gut feeling is everyone experiences this | 15:30 |
| ActionParsnip | friendishan: if you just run: ping dest it will be the equiv as windows ping -t dest | 15:30 |
| OttifantSir | sipior: Got the interface when I ran links http://localhost:631, but only text. I need to access it through a machine on LAN with GUI | 15:31 |
| Dr_Willis | phxheat: ive seen some bugs in some irc clients like that every so often, Try hitting Pagedown see if it figures it out | 15:31 |
| Binaridragon | ActionParsnip, not having an issue with this, just wanted to see the bells behind it | 15:31 |
| ActionParsnip | jfewings_: sudo lshw -C network | less | 15:31 |

| jfewings_ | ActionParsnip, how do i do that vertical line | 15:32 |
| ActionParsnip | jfewings_: deends on keyboard | 15:32 |
| Dr_Willis | phxheat: i reccomend using a dedicated irc client for irc. Not pidgin or empathy. | 15:32 |

| Dr_Willis | amgarching: thers other tools for zeroing out unused drive space I recall. | 15:36 |

| funkyHat | Anyone found gnome-keyring not offering "always allow" options (my friend says his only says "allow" or "deny")? | 15:36 |
| friendishan | Actionparsnip: ping (IP address) -t -l 15000 ? | 15:37 |
| Dr_Willis | amgarching: but id think that would work also. dont forget a BS= option to dd or it will be slow | 15:37 |
| ActionParsnip | amgarching: yes, it will make a file with lots of 0s in, you can use count to control how many, you will need sudo for the command also, as users do not have write access to /root | 15:37 |
| jfewings_ | ActionParsnip, ah, its logical name according to this is eth0 | 15:37 |
| Lint01 | amgarching: it will break your system, most likely | 15:37 |
| ActionParsnip | friendishan: -t in linux ping alows you to specify time to live (TTL) | 15:38 |
| maggott | ActionParsnip: wich isn't really what he asked for. | 15:38 |
| amgarching | Dr_Willis: du -sm BIGFILE shows growth, does it mean the zeroes are actually makeing it to the disk? ActionParsnip | 15:38 |
| friendishan | Actionparsnip : ok thanks^^ | 15:38 |
| friendishan | !ok | 15:38 |
| ubottu | You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 15:38 |

| amgarching | ActionParsnip: sudo passwd root is the first command I execute on any Ubuntu, old fashioned. | 15:39 |
| friendishan | Actionparsip: does this ping command which u gave me -c increase the traffic (takes bandwidth) of a site.? | 15:40 |
| ActionParsnip | friendishan: -l allows you to specify preload (number of pings to send without waitting for reply. By yur high number I'm guessing you are testing some network software / settings | 15:40 |
| Dr_Willis | amgarching: why would you think they were not making it to the disk? | 15:40 |
| ActionParsnip | amgarching: not needed, sudo -s is the advised method | 15:40 |
| ActionParsnip | amgarching: it also lessens system security | 15:40 |
| friendishan | Actionparsnip: i just wanted to get some traffic to my site to tell me friends that my site gets a lot of traffic (LOL) | 15:41 |
| ActionParsnip | friendishan: no, it pings for a (count of 4 | 15:41 |

| maniel | ActionParsnip: it was useful as it supported network, so you could look at http headers for example | 15:44 |
| Dr_Willis | Partimage will only copy data from the used portions of the partition. | 15:44 |

| [nrx] | anyone had issues with USB devices not showing up in VirtualBox? | 16:06 |
| Dr_Willis | draconis: xsession - runs whats in the .Xsession script/file i think | 16:06 |
| Dr_Willis | draconis: gdm has a directory of *.desktop files that define the vasrious window managers it shows in its listing | 16:07 |
| djura-san | so that means that i can set up ~/.xsession and then just create launcher called "xsessions" and use that for startup in gdm? | 16:07 |

| OttifantSir | How do you set up a root password on Ubuntu Server 8.04.3? Through an SSH-connection | 16:19 |
| lupe | Alan502, do you Know who i should direct my technical question, please let me Know | 16:19 |
| Binaridragon | turion, you might have a bad disk | 16:19 |
| turtlez | yes i boot from the cd image | 16:19 |
| erUSUL | !root | OttifantSir | 16:19 |
| ubottu | OttifantSir: 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 | 16:19 |
| n8tuser | !who | turtlez | 16:19 |
| ubottu | turtlez: 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 :) | 16:19 |

| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about checksum | 16:20 |
| Binaridragon | ubottu, !MD5 | 16:20 |

| Binaridragon | ubottu, !MD5 | Turtle | 16:20 |
| OttifantSir | erUSUL: I know sudo gives root access, but I needed to know the root password because it was the root password that was asked for when trying to forward ports in an SSH-command. | 16:20 |
| ubottu | Turtle: please see above | 16:20 |
| turtlez | okay thank but it used to take my right to ubuntu without this why did it change overnigiht? | 16:20 |
| Binaridragon | ubottu, !sudo | 16:21 |
| rooist47 | hi there | 16:21 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 16:21 |
| hackmygibby | hey has anyone got a verizon chocolate touch working with bitpim???? | 16:21 |
| erUSUL | OttifantSir: well there is no root password defined in ubuntu. | 16:21 |
| Guest76083 | anyone: is there anyway to change the gears inside the cube | 16:21 |
| Binaridragon | OttifantSir, there is no root password but u can create one by running sudo passwd root | 16:21 |
| Younder | Guest76083, no | 16:21 |
| erUSUL | !noroot | 16:21 |

| LjL | Binaridragon: it's discouraged. there is no need for you to explain how to do that especially if it wasn't asked. | 16:22 |
| erUSUL | Binaridragon: so? | 16:22 |
| erUSUL | !wfm | Binaridragon | 16:23 |
| ubottu | Binaridragon: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok.

| erUSUL | OttifantSir: you should run the program that asks for root password with sudo if possible | 16:24 |
| LjL | Goqw: kdebase just installs the libraries, AFAIK. that's not enough. | 16:24 |
| Binaridragon | erUSUL, sorry was just trying to help the guy | 16:24 |

| erUSUL | !alien | hackmygibby | 16:25 |

| erUSUL | !ebox | Marco2 | 16:25 |
| Younder | Goqw, If you try to add software which depends on KDE it will trough the synapteck package manegr (the windows version) add it | 16:25 |
| ubottu | Marco2: 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 | 16:25 |
| eugene__ | change the login screen | 16:25 |
| erUSUL | Marco2: webimin is not supported in ubuntu | 16:25 |
| llutz | !webmin | Marco2 | 16:25 |
| ubottu | Marco2: 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. | 16:25 |
| chea | Marco2: definitely a great tool for boxes | 16:25 |

| Azanoth | Hi everyone: I want Ubuntu 9.10 to automatically mount my windows partition on startup. I added '/dev/sda1 /mnt/windrive ntfs ro,umask=0222 0 0' to /etc/fstab and rebooted. Nothing. sudo mount -a responds 'fuse: mount failed: device or resource busy.' | 17:00 |

| Guest44980 | cheers jocco. | 17:01 |
| Guest44980 | i think it was because i upgraded from 9.04 instead of doing a clean 9.10 install. | 17:01 |

| Dr_Willis | Dream-Ubu: I set up grub2 on a flash drive to boot the iso files. :) I got a single flash drive now that can boot kubuntu, ubuntu, xubuntu, and.. err.. some others.. :) | 17:09 |
| kazuki | somebody know, how to decrypt encrypt folder? | 17:09 |

| nullp0inter | is there a way to find out if the contents of one file exist somewhere within another file line by line? | 17:11 |
| mr_j | I was wondering if the process is any different with 9.10 on the fakeraid install as it is not in the documentation for fakeraid. When using ubiquity I never got gparted to launch . . . | 17:12 |
| Dream-Ubu | i just hope this printer will work | 17:12 |
| nullp0inter | i checked out diff already, but i dont think it does what i need | 17:12 |
| aeon-ltd | Dream-Ubu: i suppose but are you not going o use any apps with the mono library? | 17:12 |
| jajon_ | nullp0inter, what about grep ? | 17:12 |
| nullp0inter | jajon_: how do i set it up to run each line? | 17:12 |

| dcider | lovre, did a bluetooth icon show up on top right bar? | 17:21 |
| lovre | dcider: nope, nothing | 17:21 |
| musicmaniac | what is the best way to instal ie on 9.10? | 17:22 |
| morphias | lovre: did you go to system->preferences-> bluetooth and try to configure it from there? | 17:22 |
| lovre | morphias: on my way | 17:22 |
| TheCheeze | musicmaniac, why would you want to do that? | 17:23 |
| darck1 | I'm trying to use ACL on ubuntu but I can't get created directories in my main directory to inherit execute permissions | 17:23 |
| musicmaniac | certain sites i visit require ie.. otherwise i wouldn't need it.. i hate ie | 17:23 |
| jackinthebox | Hi All, is it okay to ask questions in the general chat or you have a protocol on that one? | 17:23 |
| lovre | morphias: i am on kde... i dont see bluetooth anywhere | 17:24 |
| mhe67 | #server freenode.net | 17:24 |
| TheCheeze | musicmaniac, i thought for sure there was a firefox plugin to mimic IE on those sites... | 17:24 |
| Dr_Willis | jackinthebox: depends on the question. ask and see who answers. | 17:24 |
| jackinthebox | =) | 17:24 |

| jackinthebox | I have an Ubuntu Desktop | 17:24 |
| did_edd | haloo all | 17:24 |
| alexx1523_ | Hmm, if a manual mount changes my ntfs partition to fuseblk, does that mean I should have specified fuseblk (and not ntfs) in my fstab file for auto-mounting? | 17:25 |
| jackinthebox | also have an OS X machine.. I cannot ssh to ubuntu from Mac.. | 17:25 |
| darck1 | sudo setfacl -R -m d:u:root:rwx rapidshare && sudo setfacl -R -m d:g:parents:rwx rapidshare | 17:25 |
| Dr_Willis | jackinthebox: you did install the ssh server on the ubuntu machine? | 17:25 |
| Dr_Willis | !ssh | jackinthebox | 17:25 |
| morphias | TheCheeze, that plugin is mainly for windows machine where IE is there by default. | 17:25 |
| ubottu | jackinthebox: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for client usage. PuTTY is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for it's homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) | 17:25 |

| Dr_Willis | musicmaniac: thers some tool/script called ies4lin or ies4linux i forget the exact name. Good luck. :) | 17:26 |
| chea | s/how/to | 17:26 |
| darck1 | anybody an ACL guru in here? | 17:26 |
| TheCheeze | musicmaniac, ah, then I am not sure. I know wine has a pseudo IE browser, but i seem to fail at making it work for anything | 17:26 |
| musicmaniac | ies4lin is not in repo | 17:26 |
| musicmaniac | i have tried the wine ie without any luck | 17:27 |
| aaron11 | chea: If im using wireless should I type -i wlan0 | 17:27 |
| Dr_Willis | musicmaniac: correct.. itss not in the repos | 17:27 |

| Dr_Willis | musicmaniac: a lot of the time you can just change your browsers 'useragent' | 17:29 |

| AntiProxy | hi everyone | 17:34 |
| sipior | DSheth: if you want to try a hacky sort of solution, you can make a symbolic link from /usr/lib/libgfortran.so.1 to /usr/lib/libgfortran.so.2. not a great solution, but it might work. | 17:34 |
| AntiProxy | has anyone successfully configured Evolution mail client to keep a copy of POP mail on the server and delete after X days? if i only set it to delete after say 3 days, it deletes the mail immediately upon download.. if check both options to keep a copy on the server, and delete after X days.. it never deletes them :( | 17:34 |

| tennessean | hey guys, what is the best text-based avi to dvd maker? | 18:05 |
| dajhorn | RenatoSilva: "sudo -i" gives you a fresh login. "su" just changes the current user id, and often leaves things like $HOME unchanged. "sudo su" is kinda-sorta-mostly redundant. | 18:05 |
| Trovador_z | i have an 9.10 ubuntu with a 2.6.24 kernel, how can i upgrade the kernel is the system won't boot? | 18:06 |
| python_root | paschu: Ur notebook company ? | 18:06 |

| bazhang | https://launchpad.net/~gnomenu-team/+archive/ppa ardchoille | 18:07 |
| draconis | Trovador_z, 2.6.24 should never have been installed in Karmic | 18:07 |

| Trovador_z | Hillshum: I believe someone did a distr. upgrade on the server | 18:07 |
| bazhang | ardchoille, you're welcome :) | 18:07 |
| draconis | that looks like it was from an upgrade, it's probably time to do a fresh install | 18:07 |
| Hexxeh | Just installed UNR 9.10 on my NC10, and it's working fine except for the WiFi, which is unbelivably slow | 18:07 |
| Hexxeh | Is this a known issue with it and is there a fix? | 18:07 |
| Trovador_z | I understand, but how do i get out of this mess? without havint to reformat. | 18:07 |
| Trovador_z | ? | 18:07 |
| flootenkerp | draconis: I get this "bash: syntax error near unexpected token `(' " | 18:08 |
| draconis | hopefully since it's a server you have multiple partitions | 18:08 |
| draconis | flootenkerp, that's really strange, you must have a borked install | 18:08 |
| Hillshum | Trovador_z: I would suggest making two partitions, one on /home with all your data, and one with the system | 18:08 |
| flootenkerp | So what should I do? | 18:08 |
| python_root | paschu: W8 | 18:09 |
| om26er | Hexxeh, not as far as i know | 18:09 |
| paschu | python_root: I have a lot of time ;) | 18:09 |
| Trovador_z | Hillshum: any way to just copy the kernel over? | 18:09 |
| ardchoille | Oh, there's a new way to add PPA's to the sources in Karmic? | 18:09 |
| RenatoSilva | dajhorn: just thought about sudo su, it really seems to not make any sense at all... so sudo -i is like you're logging in as root, so you get your $HOME set as /root or so, and you get /root/.bashrc executed etc? And su just changes the user while keeping data like this unchanged? Just checking if I've got it well, did I? | 18:09 |
| draconis | flootenkerp, VisualBoyAdvance does not spawn a bash shell. what are you typing | 18:09 |
| bazhang | ardchoille, yep let me get you a link | 18:09 |
| Hexxeh | Well, many pages just aren't loading, or are taking several minutes to load on a fast broadband connection | 18:09 |
| Hexxeh | What can I try to fix this? | 18:09 |

| draconis | flootenkerp, it's case sensitive. the program is VisualBoyAdvance, not visualboyadvance. also, the parentheses are there to show you that it's something to fill in... DON'T actually type them | 18:11 |
| python_root | paschu: Ur Visual effects working properly ? | 18:11 |
| RenatoSilva | dajhorn: see grawity's answer? they do the same? | 18:11 |

| RenatoSilva | grawity: what do you mean the same | 18:11 |
| flootenkerp | I know that draconis, but I'll try the case sensitive now | 18:11 |

| draconis | flootenkerp, the game file is definitely not that | 18:13 |

| bazhang | deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/gnomenu-team/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main ardchoille | 18:14 |
| draconis | flootenkerp, the quotes in this case are necessary | 18:15 |
| flootenkerp | What directory is it? | 18:15 |
| LoRez | Hillshum: 'sudo -s' is probably better than 'sudo bash' | 18:15 |
| draconis | flootenkerp, um, how should I know? you're the one who downloaded it | 18:15 |
| RenatoSilva | grawity: I wonder if that's the only difference, and asking one or another password seems to point to another one at all | 18:15 |

| flootenkerp | Any idea now draconis? Let me repost the link just in case you missed it http://pastebin.com/d2e2c06e0 | 18:20 |
| zwamkat | bazhang What's the fuzz? | 18:20 |
| bazhang | zwamkat, lmgtfy are not acceptable here | 18:20 |
| dajhorn | edoceo: What kind of video card is in the computer? | 18:20 |
| draconis | flootenkerp, ls ~/.vba | 18:21 |
| Thom- | hello guys, does anyone know which alsa card driver i have to use when my motherboard has a realtek alc889 chip? | 18:21 |
| zwamkat | bazhang I get that, would you care to explain why? | 18:21 |
| draconis | flootenkerp, paste that | 18:21 |
| edoceo | dajhorn: it's an older thinkpad laptop - IDK what video is in there - an it's not in front of me now | 18:21 |
| bazhang | zwamkat, /msg ubottu google please | 18:21 |
| v12extremex | ughh that link really didnt help me any.. i need an exact linux ubuntu driver for the ATI radeon 200 xpress series | 18:21 |
| dajhorn | edoceo: The first thing to do is disable the Nvidia or ATI proprietary drivers and check whether the video corruption persists. | 18:22 |
| flootenkerp | bash: /home/flootenkerp/.vba: is a directory | 18:22 |
| edoceo | dajhorn: I'll start there - shuld I switch to like vesa or something? | 18:22 |
| dajhorn | edoceo: When you get to your computer, you can do this at System -> Administration -> Hardware drivers. | 18:22 |
| RenatoSilva | Karmic uses grub 2 by default? | 18:22 |
| draconis | flootenkerp, ls ~/.vba , as in what's in that directory | 18:22 |
| zwamkat | bazhang Mea culpa | 18:23 |
| bazhang | RenatoSilva, upgrade or fresh install? | 18:23 |
| dajhorn | edoceo: Yes, kindof. If you don't have an Nvidia or ATI card in the computer, then you'll need to go through regular troubleshooting. | 18:23 |
| flootenkerp | Oh | 18:23 |
| flootenkerp | Draconis: out put says M.gba | 18:23 |
| edoceo | dajhorn: thx! I'll give that a go and I'll be back in a few hours! | 18:23 |
| RenatoSilva | bazhang: if I've upgraded from Jaunty to Karmic, grub2 won't be installed right? Is it recommended? | 18:23 |
| bazhang | RenatoSilva, did you choose the package maintainer's version or not | 18:24 |
| dajhorn | edoceo: Welcome. | 18:24 |
| blendmaster1024 | i'm about to use debmirror to download the entire karmic repo, including all karmic dists and branches. i want to be able to use this to dist-update my other machines, do i have to do anything special to make dist-upgrade work, or is that all client-side, and it jsut needs a repo? for instance, do i need the debian-installer thing? or maybe do i need the .. "dist-upgrader-all" dir? | 18:24 |
| RenatoSilva | bazhang: I don't choose grub version when updating the kernel, I choose a menu.lst | 18:24 |
| clustermagnet | n | 18:24 |
| RenatoSilva | bazhang: choosing maintainer's in upgrade to karmic makes grub be replaced by version 2? | 18:25 |
| zwamkat | v12extremex There are more out there searching the same driver. http://www.petitiononline.com/x200MLin/petition.html You might want to sign the petitiion | 18:25 |
| bazhang | RenatoSilva, when version upgrading you need to select the package maintainers version or keep the old one, in this case grub2 or grub-legacy | 18:25 |
| geek1212121212 | Anyone know how to keymap ? | 18:25 |
| paschu | python_root: sry for the dc | 18:25 |
| RenatoSilva | bazhang: didn't show anything about grub 1 and 2, as I said | 18:26 |
| RenatoSilva | bazhang: and the old is not grub2, grub2 is new | 18:26 |
| draconis | flootenkerp, btw, just install visualboyadvance-gtk. that's got a frontend that doesn't require extracting command line output | 18:26 |
| ardchoille | bazhang: fwiw, this is the first time I've had gnomenu work flawlessly | 18:26 |
| RenatoSilva | bazhang: ah ok, respectively | 18:26 |
| bazhang | RenatoSilva, the package maintainers version is grub2 it is much nicer with more features | 18:26 |
| * blendmaster1024 likes gnomenu for it's xp-menu - great for fooling windows lusers | 18:26 | |
| bazhang | ardchoille, nicely done :) | 18:27 |
| RenatoSilva | bazhang: should I install it NOW? | 18:27 |
| RenatoSilva | bazhang: and DELETE grub 1? | 18:27 |
| flootenkerp | Thanks draconis, it srated up | 18:27 |
| dajhorn | blendmaster1024: First, you need to make the repo available internally, like at MyServer.local, on an HTTP server. Second, you need to put a deb line for MyServer.local in the sources.list file of the client computers. | 18:27 |
| bazhang | RenatoSilva, it will do it on upgrading version when you choose package maintainers version | 18:27 |
| RenatoSilva | bazhang: I did upgrate a lot of time ago ? | 18:28 |
| Tartaros | i can't run firefox with apparmor on, where do I get help? | 18:28 |
| RenatoSilva | *upgrade | 18:28 |
| dajhorn | blendmaster1024: If you are doing new intallations, then you need to specify MyServer.local at the choose a mirror dialog. | 18:28 |
| bazhang | RenatoSilva, you should look at the grub2 wiki ( /msg ubottu grub2 ) | 18:28 |
| RenatoSilva | should I be using grub 2? why? | 18:28 |
| fretegi_part_2 | tartaros, execute FF from the terminal and post the output | 18:28 |
| fretegi_part_2 | in pastebinb | 18:28 |
| fretegi_part_2 | pastebin* | 18:28 |
| Tartaros | fretegi_part_2: there's no output | 18:29 |
| flootenkerp | draconis: But now when I loaded the game, it just gives me a white screen | 18:29 |
| fretegi_part_2 | check ur log then | 18:29 |
| Tartaros | fretegi_part_2: where? which log? :) | 18:29 |
| blendmaster1024 | dajhorn: all i care about is will dist-upgrade work. i already have the jaunty repo and it works jsut fine. | 18:29 |
| dajhorn | blendmaster1024: It will work the same from a local mirror as a regular *.ubuntu.com mirror. | 18:30 |
| blendmaster1024 | oky-dokey then, here goes | 18:30 |
| blendmaster1024 | i hope it fits on my hd, lol | 18:30 |
| fretegi_part_2 | check the sys log, go to tab for administration in the upper left of screen | 18:31 |
| fretegi_part_2 | admin, logs, not running ubuntu at the moment so im running off mempry lol | 18:31 |

| draconis | yw | 18:32 |
| Tartaros | fretegi_part_2: yeah so the "syslog" file right? there's a bunch of messages that seem related | 18:32 |
| JEEBsv | Is there any way to manually install anthy onto a system where I have no sudo but where SCIM is already installed? | 18:32 |

| locki00 | help? Erik11111 | 18:44 |
| zwamkat | help? | 18:44 |
| locki00 | whats ur problem? | 18:44 |
| drongous | Hi all. I user Ubuntu 9.10. When screen i locked and i true to type password hi gnome-secreensaver not accept him. Why? Where to look? | 18:44 |
| buttons840 | microlith, i will be using a login, and i can login using this account when using ftp terminal, but i am never presented with a username prompt when using the various graphical program (ie, firefox, windows explorer) | 18:45 |
| Erik11111 | uuh i tried to install ubuntu, but wen it had allready deleted windows it said install error:P | 18:45 |
| frode` | I can get my wireless laptop to connect with network-manager, but I can't get it to work by configuring /etc/network/interfaces (trying to set it up without X) .. any hints? | 18:45 |
| blendmaster1024 | drongous: speak complete english or go to a ubuntu support channel that speaks your native language | 18:45 |
| microlith | buttons840: try submitting the login/password in the URL you use | 18:45 |
| drongous | Народ Всем привет. | 18:45 |
| buttons840 | microlith, how is that done? | 18:45 |
| microlith | I think it's like: ftp://user:name@ip.address/ | 18:45 |
| microlith | err | 18:46 |
| blendmaster1024 | drongous: on a different channel? | 18:46 |
| Erik11111 | so is there any way to install ubuntu without having to reinstall? | 18:46 |
| microlith | ftp://username:password@ip.address/ | 18:46 |
| blendmaster1024 | Erik11111: yes but it's many times harder | 18:46 |
| locki00 | new install is better | 18:46 |
| microlith | or just username, and it prompts you | 18:46 |
| Erik11111 | >< | 18:46 |
| microlith | I recommend against using browsers for FTP access unless it's anonymous | 18:46 |
| Erik11111 | im currently on the CD version of ubuntu... | 18:46 |
| blendmaster1024 | and to repeat my question: i need to do a debmirror without gpg | 18:46 |
| blendmaster1024 | and i am not sure how | 18:46 |
| LjL | i recommend against using non-anonymous FTP in the first place. | 18:46 |
| locki00 | u should re-install and format ur partition(s), Erik11111 | 18:47 |
| microlith | of course, sftp/scp is better all around :) | 18:47 |
| Erik11111 | reinstall windows? | 18:47 |
| locki00 | no | 18:47 |
| locki00 | u like both OS? | 18:47 |
| LjL | !u | 18:47 |
| ubottu | U is the 21st letter of the modern latin alphabet. Neither 'U' or 'Ur' are words in the English language. Nor are 'R', 'Y', 'l8', 'Ne1' or 'Bcuz'.

| blendmaster1024 | LjL: nice | 18:48 |
| Alan502 | any partition manager recommended? i installed my swap partition as primary but now i want to make it logical, what app can do this? | 18:48 |
| Hexxeh | Hmm | 18:48 |

| === crunchbang is now known as Guest75841 | ||
| LjL | locki00: the second person pronoun is "you", not "u". we'd prefer if you used that. | 18:50 |
| blendmaster1024 | locki00: instead of saying "u" say "you", and instead of saying "r" say "are" | 18:50 |
| locki00 | ok, no problem | 18:50 |
| buttons840 | microlith, what is "active" vs "passive" when it comes to ftp? | 18:50 |
| BluesKaj | Alan502, download and burn the gparted live cd , then you can use it separately from the the OS which gives more options | 18:51 |
| Guest75841 | I am using a usb drive with crunchbang working great on it. How do I make it persistent? | 18:51 |
| Lint01 | buttons840: active means server connect you, passive vice versa | 18:51 |
| arand | Erik11111: in the "review screen" of the ubuntu installer, specify to put the boot loader (mbr) on the ubuntu partition rather than the whole disk mbr, then use easybcd or similar tools to edit the windows bootloader to boot grub? | 18:51 |

| RenatoSilva | is anybory able to tell __what benefit__ 2x-ram swaps give you? | 18:54 |
| Bodsda | Hi, how can I repair grub(1) after winxp screws things up, from a Karmic livecd | 18:55 |
| blendmaster1024 | RenatoSilva: your machine is likely never to kill programs because they're taking up too much ram | 18:56 |
| blendmaster1024 | that's *it* | 18:56 |
| blendmaster1024 | the machine is likely to slow to a crawl if programs exceed your ram anyway | 18:56 |
| dajhorn | RenatoSilva: Some laptop suspend modes need swap to write-out memory. | 18:57 |
| kaspar | H, no one got an idea. Alright. | 18:57 |
| RenatoSilva | dajhorn: why would a ram dump take more than the ram size? | 18:57 |
| kajhavaas | this the ubuntu channel right | 18:57 |
| blood_diamond | dajhorn, is it related to hibernate also? | 18:57 |
| jrib | RenatoSilva: you shouldn't need more swap then 1x ram unless you don't have much ram | 18:57 |
| Bodsda | kajhavaas: yes, it is | 18:57 |
| kajhavaas | ty | 18:58 |
| kajhavaas | i have a ? about ubuntu 9.10 | 18:58 |
| RenatoSilva | jrib: that's the reason of the question, if you google out there, you see "it's recommended", "it's better", but no one explains WHY | 18:58 |
| jrib | RenatoSilva: that's outdated advice | 18:58 |
| Bodsda | kajhavaas: ask away - if someone knows the answer, they will respond | 18:58 |
| frode` | I do "iwconfig eth1 essid foo key bar" for my WEP network, but the settings don't seem to "take".. a moment later iwconfig says there's no ssid and "Encryption key: off" etc. Latest 9.10. | 18:58 |
| jrib | RenatoSilva: the current recommendation is 1x ram so you can hibernate | 18:59 |
| kajhavaas | i used the wubi and did a dual boot on my dell how do i see the windows side to access my files? | 18:59 |
| RenatoSilva | jrib: I see no reason to have more than 1x ram if you have a reasonable ammoun of ram | 18:59 |
| jrib | RenatoSilva: correct | 18:59 |
| soreau | frode`: If you aren't going to use the network manager services ubuntu provides, you should disable them | 18:59 |
| dajhorn | RenatoSilva: The Ubuntu wiki has the technical detail. Look for the document that describes why the suspend store must be a swap partition and not a swap file. | 18:59 |
| frode` | soreau: I'll use whatever I can get, but I'm trying to do without X, just the console. | 19:00 |
| kajhavaas | i used the wubi and did a dual boot on my dell how do i see the windows side to access my files? | 19:01 |
| doleyb | Hi, after getting karmic I can't change cpu speed anymore. It used to change automatically, now I can't set the max speed to higher than min. http://paste.ubuntu.com/326302 | 19:01 |
| soreau | frode`: Try killing NetworkManager if it is running | 19:01 |
| soreau | frode`: And nm-system-settings | 19:01 |
| seige36 | BluesKaj, hey im back | 19:01 |
| Bodsda | kajhavaas: look in you places menu. It would have probably made an entry for your win files. Or you will have to mount the partition | 19:02 |
| RenatoSilva | dajhorn: I'm sorry, I didn't ask ANYTHING about hibernation with file vs. partition | 19:02 |
| toza | Hi guys, my gnome power icon no longer shows for some reason. (karmic) | 19:02 |
| RenatoSilva | jrib: http://superuser.com/questions/16280/swap-partition-size-for-4gb-ram | 19:02 |
| toza | nvm | 19:03 |
| jrib | RenatoSilva: *outdated* advice | 19:03 |
| jrib | !swap | RenatoSilva | 19:03 |
| ubottu | RenatoSilva: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info | 19:03 |
| kajhavaas | well in places it gives me the standard placesIE: bin/var/usr etc | 19:03 |
| BluesKaj | seige36, welcome back | 19:03 |
| RenatoSilva | jrib: "In fact I recommend 2 * RAM + 1 MB so that there is absolutely room to swap out 2 entire copies of memory. This avoids the "shell game" scenario which can have negative performance repercussions. What this will do for you is guarantee a level of resiliency should you encounter an extraordinary event with your system." | 19:03 |
| kajhavaas | diskmounter wont show it i tried using gparted to get it to pop up no go | 19:03 |
| jrib | RenatoSilva: why are you quoting that to me? | 19:04 |
| puremichael | who recommends 2x ram as swap ?? | 19:04 |
| frode` | soreau: killing NetworkManager did the trick. Thanks! | 19:04 |
| dajhorn | RenatoSilva: You're asking open-ended questions about swap, and you got the reason why-it-is-that-way in Ubuntu. Trust ubuntu.com before you link out into nowhere. | 19:04 |
| frode` | soreau: (I had no idea it was running.. sigh.) | 19:04 |
| _g-new-sense_1 | hi | 19:04 |
| bcj | puremichael: Depends what you use the machine for and how much RAM you have. | 19:04 |
| Bodsda | kajhavaas: no, in the menu. For example I get - Computer, 40GB filesystem, 80GB filesystem, 100GB filesystem | 19:04 |
| RenatoSilva | jrib: I had seen that page, there's no eplanation there, just formulas based on ram and hd sizes | 19:04 |
| dlm | What languages we needed to known for became a MOTU | 19:04 |
| bcj | puremichael: Do you hibernate? How much RAM do you have? Do you do video editing? | 19:05 |
| Bodsda | puremichael: I have always gone with swap = 1.5 * RAM | 19:05 |
| soreau | frode`: Cool :) | 19:05 |
| _g-new-sense_1 | im need help with the volume control of ubuntu 9.10. I want to install the volume control of ubuntu 9.04. | 19:05 |
| puremichael | bcj; exactly... with 512mb ram i would recommend 2gb swap... i've got no swap | 19:05 |
| jrib | RenatoSilva: ask the person who gave you that advice to justify it. I am telling you that with the amount of ram on modern systems there isn't need for that much swap. You should never even hit swap. You should have 1x ram swap just because you need it to hibernate | 19:05 |
| kajhavaas | ya all it gives me is my printer, file system and cd rom | 19:05 |
| Bodsda | dlm: as in programming languages? none afaik | 19:05 |
| buttons840 | microlith, thanks, i think my problem was port 20 not being open (apparently port 20 is data for ftp, and 21 is command) | 19:05 |
| _g-new-sense_1 | im need help with the volume control of ubuntu 9.10. I want to install the volume control of ubuntu 9.04. pls | 19:06 |
| dlm | Bodsa: yes programming languages | 19:06 |

| ubottu | _g-new-sense_1, please see my private message | 19:06 |
| Bodsda | puremichael: no one says you have to listen to them | 19:06 |
| Bodsda | dlm: they are not a requirement. You can still do packaging work without programming knowledge | 19:06 |
| bcj | HDD is cheap - making it too big isn't any penalty. | 19:06 |
| dlm | ok | 19:07 |
| fretegi_part_2 | nor having too many of em :) | 19:07 |
| bcj | Does resizing a disk in gparted cause the data to be shuffled about? | 19:07 |
| Bodsda | dlm: #ubuntu-motu for more info | 19:07 |
| Bodsda | bcj: it can do, yes | 19:07 |
| fretegi_part_2 | generally only ifu make a partition smaller tho | 19:08 |
| dlm | Bodsda: thanks for the link | 19:08 |
| bcj | Bodsda: So I will be able to clear a space at the start of my disk in order to add other partitions there? | 19:08 |
| Bodsda | dlm: your welcome | 19:08 |

| RenatoSilva | jrib: and how does that answer the initial question? NO ONE is asking about what to do, what is the magic formula. I am asking if anyone KNOWS the TECHNICAL reason that would give base to the 2x advice. And I'm NOT reffering to just "if you have small RAM". That doesn't seem to explain anything to me either, because for small ram the 2x has no special meaning other than increasing the size to a good level. There's no special meaning in the 2x, at least | 19:10 |
| fretegi_part_2 | heres how to think about it | 19:10 |
| === orion_ is now known as Guest39879 | ||
| fretegi_part_2 | the data is written rather randomly across the given partition, so if u resize a part smaller u dorisk wiping some secotrs that are in use with data | 19:11 |
| dajhorn | _g-new-sense_1: I couldn't find it when I looked for it. Many of the old audio components are gone with the new PulseAudio system. | 19:11 |
| * RenatoSilva wonders why people like to answer questions even when they don't know the answer | 19:11 | |
| fretegi_part_2 | lol too true renato | 19:11 |
| * Bodsda wonders why people are sarcasticly rude to those people trying to help | 19:11 | |
| * BluesKaj decides to relax in the easy chair with the laptop | 19:11 | |
| * fretegi_part_2 gets some popcorn to watch the show | 19:12 | |
| jrib | RenatoSilva: I did answer your question. I told you to ask the person that gives the 2x advice. | 19:12 |
| dajhorn | RenatoSilva: Why assume that the bad advice has a technical reason? 2x physical reminds me of something that would show up on a MCSE exam. | 19:12 |
| RenatoSilva | jrib: ah selfish | 19:12 |

| brian_ | hi | 19:13 |
| fretegi_part_2 | yea here | 19:13 |
| brian_ | i am in need of some help with ubuntu | 19:13 |
| fretegi_part_2 | post ur problem | 19:13 |
| nytek_ | brian_: what is the problem? | 19:13 |
| brian_ | well, i am running gnome as the main desktop, and i just installed kde4 | 19:14 |
| fretegi_part_2 | why lol | 19:14 |
| brian_ | and after doing so, i switched to see if gnome was running properly still, only to find that the fonts in firefox now look disdusting and there's no way to change them | 19:14 |
| jrib | RenatoSilva: unfortunately, I am unable to mind read other people. It's like asking me to explain why someone told you the moon was made out of cheese | 19:14 |
| Bodsda | jrib: your comparing mind reading (impossible) to moon cheese (far more likely) ... interesting :) | 19:15 |
| fretegi_part_2 | jrib rofl | 19:15 |
| Lord-Readman | hello | 19:15 |
| platius | Sometimes when I log into 9.10 there are no icons on the panels. Is the some terminal command that will install the icons without rebotting? | 19:15 |
| nytek_ | brian_: have you checked what your fonts are set to? | 19:15 |
| brian_ | even when i use the option to change the font. it doesn't change it at all | 19:15 |
| brian_ | it stays the same | 19:15 |
| Bodsda | platius: try killall gnome-panel | 19:16 |
| RenatoSilva | jrib: oh, let me /ignore you, just a moment :) | 19:16 |
| brian_ | it's the same fonts from konqueror | 19:16 |
| platius | Bodsda; ty | 19:16 |
| brian_ | so i completely removed every vestige of kde4 but the terrible fonts persist | 19:16 |
| kajhavaas | ok found those files i guess using wubi for 9.10 mashes it all together in the mount point | 19:16 |
| nytek_ | brian_: try recompiling font cache by running "fc-cache -f -v" as root | 19:16 |
| chaitu | brian_: I had similar issue. looks like its a issue with msfonts | 19:17 |
| chaitu | brian_: http://embraceubuntu.com/2005/09/09/installing-microsoft-fonts/ might help | 19:17 |
| solj | is anyone aware of an rsync mirror for canonical's partner repository at archive.canonical.com/ubuntu ? | 19:17 |
| MusicGenius | hi noobs | 19:17 |
| chaitu | brian_: opera looks much better. Gotta admit that link I gave you didnt help me. | 19:17 |
| platius | Bodsda; like a champ. I assume there is a bug reportrd. | 19:18 |
| brian_ | it says that the recompiling worked but it didn't change anything.it succeeded in the temrinal, but firefox still looks terrible | 19:18 |
| Bodsda | platius: dunno, but go find out :) | 19:18 |
| Xpistos|work | Hey is there a problem with FFMPEG in Karmic? | 19:18 |

| mcurran | does anyone know a good tool I could use once I've ssh'ed to a server and I'm at the password prompt? Any good dictionary tools for root passwords | 19:19 |
| brian_ | ctrl alt backspace does not restart gdm. let me just reboot | 19:19 |
| nytek_ | Bodsda: i dont follow | 19:19 |
| Bodsda | mcurran: no one is gonna tell you how to crack a password over ssh. not in this channel anyway | 19:20 |
| mcurran | why not | 19:20 |
| Bodsda | nytek_: ctrl+alt+backspace for restarting the xserver. wont work | 19:20 |
| rosebj | mcurran, cause thats not how we roll | 19:20 |
| MusicGenius | same reason they wont make me a rhythmbox pet for puppy linux | 19:20 |
| nytek_ | Bodsda: is that something new in 9.04 and +? | 19:20 |

| k3rmitz | Aciid, ok but there would be references even without it too - read permission is set | 20:36 |
| blooddiamond | kisuke, mv oldname newname | 20:36 |
| kisuke | Tartaros: thanks | 20:36 |
| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: oh I have read something like that before. also you could argue about this, but really when it comes to a web browser the most important thing is that it has very good web standards support. | 20:36 |

| ZykoticK9 | kndg99, i switch the above command from BACKUP to regular | 21:10 |
| nullp0inter | and i need to set JAVA_HOME | 21:10 |

| bostikforever | no you don't | 21:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Kernel: works fine here, maybe you need some boot options for your hardware setu pto get it working | 21:10 |

| kostkon | flux_, do now in the terminal: pulseaudio -k | 21:11 |
| mark_ | stupid question. I run nomachine to get to my desktop. It only works with KDE because I have a theme on gnome that does not work with Nomchine. I want to remove it. The theme has the app menus on the desktop that you mouse over, rather than the ubuntu "start" icon etc.... Anyone know what package that is that I can remove? | 21:11 |
| Kernel | i just need to figure out how i can start xorg | 21:11 |
| kndg99 | ZykoticK9 it's like pages start to load, but then the connection times out. | 21:11 |
| flux_ | kostkon E: main.c: Failed to kill daemon: No such process | 21:11 |
| ActionParsnip | Kernel: well its a differemnt kernel, so previous versions working doesnt mean a right lot | 21:11 |
| Kernel | the old "/etc/init.d/gdm start" does not work. neither do "service gdm start" or "start gdm" | 21:11 |
| matteo1990 | >noren | !mount ?? Is it a command? =) | 21:11 |
| kndg99 | ZykoticK9 I know the internet works as i'm on the same connection to send these msgs | 21:12 |
| noren | matteo1990: sorry mate cant help u today, myself got stuck in the console cant open any browser for now, consult ActionParsnip here | 21:12 |
| ZykoticK9 | kndg99, i'm affraid i really don't know what could be causing that??? hopefully someone else will have some insights! | 21:12 |
| kostkon | flux_, ok, er, just logout and login again to be sure that pulse will start the right way | 21:12 |
| kndg99 | ZykoticK9 I appreciate your efforts | 21:12 |
| matteo1990 | >noren no problem, thanks aniway | 21:12 |

| kndg99 | ZykoticK9 no | 21:12 |
| Kernel | ActionParsnip: yea. i know. but a standard update shouldnt do this...and it still leaves the issue of me not being able to start xorg/gdm | 21:12 |
| paissad-hp | thanks in advance | 21:12 |
| qos | how do i add an alternative starter for an application? in jaunty you had to add a file to /etc/alternatives . for some reasons this would be removed?! | 21:13 |

| === kaini_ is now known as kaini | ||
| ZykoticK9 | matteo1990, you'll need to use windows before linux will mount that drive (i imagine, it's not been marked as clean by windows - and that is the error you're getting) good luck man. | 21:21 |
| teamcoltra | deep_thought, check your bios | 21:22 |
| xim_ | ActionParsnip, yeah ive tried that, it works, but I was looking for something simpler where I didnt have to type a complex command in and depend on my semi-competance to wake me up | 21:22 |
| ZykoticK9 | matteo1990, or worse - the drive really is failing (also very possible) | 21:22 |
| xim_ | i seem to screw it up 4/5 times | 21:22 |
| deep_thought | teamcoltra, thats not the issue, ubuntu will hang on irq 16, when the drive is unpluged, when i plug it in, ubuntu will boot normal | 21:23 |
| matteo1990 | >ZykoticK9 Dunno, all worked fine until a week ago... I use normaly that drive on windows... O.o | 21:23 |
| ActionParsnip | xim_: you can script it and run it when you want the alarm to fire, you could even use an arg to set the time | 21:23 |
| ZykoticK9 | matteo1990, just try the "chkdsk /f" and reboot twice as error message recommends | 21:24 |

It works fine with WINE but a few of the functions aren't working as I want them to.

| DJAshnar | Ubuntu is legally free | 21:40 |
| mister_roboto | mikefnode: lol seriously? | 21:40 |
| hedkandi | I once paid for kubuntu | 21:40 |
| Shwack | mikefnode, we pay with our souls | 21:40 |
| ZachK_ | mikefnode: Ok....how the heck do you think that | 21:40 |
| ZachK_ | Shwack: agreed | 21:40 |
| mikefnode | well why not? | 21:40 |
| hedkandi | I got the cd on ebay for 2.99 or whatever | 21:40 |
| mikefnode | sure, to's free | 21:40 |
| manug | mister_roboto yeah, briefly, i guess i should look at it more. thanks! | 21:40 |
| mikefnode | but a little donation wouldn't hurt, right? | 21:40 |
| zleap | MikeChelen, you can buy cd's from the ubuntu store | 21:40 |
| gasull | wilsonj: add a line that says "read" at the end of the script called by gnome-terminal | 21:40 |
| Shwack | mikefnode, are you calling me cheap? | 21:40 |
| ZachK_ | hedkandi: then you got screwed | 21:40 |
| Steve0_T | Do you Know "the magnets"? | 21:40 |
| hedkandi | And the linuxshop sells these cds, and some of the strange distros go for like 8 quiD! | 21:41 |
| mikefnode | haha, of course not ;) | 21:41 |
| hedkandi | zachK: why? | 21:41 |
| Shwack | mikefnode, im just kidding | 21:41 |
| ZachK_ | hedkandi: because it's free | 21:41 |
| mikefnode | well, i just launched http://www.buyubuntu.com/ - just wanted some feedback to be honest with you | 21:41 |
| gasull | Has anybody here installed Xfce on top of Ubuntu 9.10? | 21:41 |
| frankely | i want use a Messenger where i can be seen by cam and se webcam and support msn accounts | 21:41 |
| pierre_ | hi, I have a webcam "Bus 002 Device 003: ID 0c45:60fc Microdia PC Camera with Mic (SN9C105)". The system up the module, but it don't work | 21:41 |
| ZachK_ | gasull: i have | 21:41 |
| mikefnode | i might be wasting my time, but i'd like to make regular donations, which would be funded by the site | 21:41 |
| Tartaros | Shwack: that, or you could compile it yourself if you can get hold of the sources (which you should be able to since it's sourceforge project) | 21:41 |
| Shwack | mikefnode, lol - I will donate though - I'm very impressed by Ubuntu and have already led 1 friend to the light | 21:41 |
| mister_roboto | mikefnode: making a few bucks here and there from individuals isn't viable. htey need to sell to businesses | 21:41 |
| BluesKaj | ZachK_, don't worry those who threaten to go back to windows soon realize their mistake, if they do. It's just ploy to get ahead in the queue for support | 21:41 |
| hedkandi | well if you apply to get a cd on the ubuntu site they say it takes 2 months to arrive! | 21:41 |
| frankely | anyone knows a Messenger where i can be seen by cam and se webcam and support msn accounts? | 21:41 |
| hedkandi | that's rubbish! | 21:42 |
| mikefnode | yeah hedkandi, hence: http://www.buyubuntu.com/ | 21:42 |
| ikonia | hedkandi: it can take a lot less, it is very open | 21:42 |
| hacknslash | frankely, try amsn | 21:42 |
| gasull | ZachK_: I did and then I was unable to start a Xfce session from gdm | 21:42 |
| matteo1990 | >frankely Amsn | 21:42 |
| frankely | i tried but webcam didnt work | 21:42 |
| gasull | ZachK_: did you have the same problem? | 21:42 |
| gasull | ZachK_: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openbox/+bug/459005 | 21:42 |
| Shwack | Tartaros, I would love to compile it myself - I'm going to read up on compiling and look for the source files. Thank you | 21:42 |
| ZachK_ | gasull: ok...how did you install | 21:42 |
| hedkandi | At the least you need your own blank cd and some equipment. | 21:42 |
| frode` | I'm unable to either get into the grub boot menu or configure grub, it seems.. this system is too "user friendly" :-/ | 21:42 |
| hedkandi | And I usually find I need to burn like 4 cds before I get one that's error-free | 21:42 |
| gasull | ZachK_: I tried sudo aptitude install xfce4 first | 21:42 |
| ikonia | hedkandi: contact your ISP then | 21:43 |
| zelrikriando | hello | 21:43 |
| ZachK_ | gasull: ok after you do that restart and click on Session. It will be listed there | 21:43 |
| gasull | ZachK_: then I removed the installed packages and tried sudo aptitude install xubuntu-desktop | 21:43 |
| Tartaros | !hi | zelrikriando | 21:43 |
| ubottu | zelrikriando: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines. Enjoy your stay! | 21:43 |
| zelrikriando | I was wondering what driver I should use for a nexxtech webcam | 21:43 |
| ActionParsnip | hedkandi: burn slower | 21:43 |
| mister_roboto | frankely: does pidgin do msn? | 21:43 |
| wilsonj | gasull, where exactly in the command string am I to place read? | 21:43 |
| frankely | yes, but i wanna use my webcam | 21:43 |
| Tartaros | hedkandi: or don't burn at all, use usb :) | 21:43 |
| ZachK_ | Pidgin does i believe | 21:43 |
| sebsebseb | !grub2 | frode` | 21:44 |
| ubottu | frode`: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 21:44 |
| gasull | ZachK_: Yes, it was listed there, but then the xfce session didn't start. It just went back to gdm all the time | 21:44 |
| mister_roboto | frankely: oh yes, ok... no cam | 21:44 |
| ZachK_ | hmm | 21:44 |
| ActionParsnip | zelrikriando: run: lsusb one line will identify the cam, websearch for the 8 character hex ID which identifies the cam | 21:44 |
| ZachK_ | gasull: you mean it did not start at all? | 21:44 |
| frode` | ubottu: ok, thanks. | 21:44 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ok, thanks. | 21:44 |
| frankely | and i need use my webcam | 21:44 |
| gasull | wilsonj: gnome-terminal -c "nmap; read" | 21:44 |
| Dantonic | How do I assign a specific local ip to my desktop? | 21:44 |
| gasull | ZachK_: exactly | 21:44 |
| mister_roboto | frankely: does messenger run with wine? | 21:44 |
| sebsebseb | !thanks | frode` | 21:44 |
| ubottu | frode`: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 21:44 |
| wilsonj | gasull, tyvm | 21:44 |
| matteo1990 | >ZykoticK9 It worked :D | 21:44 |
| kostkon | frankely, emesene? | 21:44 |
| ZachK_ | gasull: hmm | 21:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Dantonic: use network manager | 21:44 |
| gasull | wilsonj: you're very welcome | 21:44 |
| ZachK_ | mister_roboto: it should | 21:44 |
| frankely | have you used emessene with webcam? | 21:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Dantonic: or you can use /etc/network/interfaces | 21:45 |
| mister_roboto | ZachK_: should and does are two differnet things ;) | 21:45 |
| sebsebseb | frode`: you should be thanking me really :) | 21:45 |
| Dantonic | ty ActionParsnip | 21:45 |
| ZachK_ | mister_roboto: hey....you asked a question...i answered | 21:45 |
| kostkon | frankely, me? no | 21:45 |
| frankely | guess is not nice | 21:45 |
| zelrikriando | damn I thought I had a driver in the CD | 21:45 |
| gasull | ZachK_: and same think happened to me installing Openbox. I couldn't start a GNOME/Openbox session. I could start only a regular GNOME session | 21:45 |
| zelrikriando | but I lost the CD | 21:45 |
| wilsonj | gasull, the terminal window still closes right wfterwards? | 21:45 |
| mister_roboto | ZachK_: sure, but i was looking for yes, no or i don't know :) | 21:46 |
| hedkandi | Tartaros: yes, I never considered putting the iso onto usb stick. Does that work? | 21:46 |
| mister_roboto | ZachK_: "should" means "i don't know " ;) | 21:46 |
| wilsonj | s/wfterards/afterwards | 21:46 |
| mikefnode | so - what's the overall verdict? http://www.buyubuntu.com/ a good idea or not? | 21:46 |
| ActionParsnip | zelrikriando: thats a windows driver CD, many cams use the same chip so youwill find open drivers | 21:46 |
| hedkandi | I didn't know my bios had the option to boot from usb | 21:46 |
| ZachK_ | mister_roboto: We try to give specific answers...if in doubt, try it out! | 21:46 |
| sebsebseb | !usb | hedkandi | 21:46 |
| ubottu | hedkandi: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 21:46 |
| Tartaros | hedkandi: not only does it work, it's the offical way to go now :) | 21:46 |
| hedkandi | exciting! | 21:46 |
| mister_roboto | ZachK_: good point. i'm not the one trying to do it. frankely needs to try it | 21:46 |
| hedkandi | well that's got to be a good thing | 21:46 |
| zelrikriando | ActionParsnip: I thought there were a linux directory in that CD | 21:47 |
| Tartaros | hedkandi: I'd guess so. I installed from usb myself (jaunty) | 21:47 |
| hedkandi | I was looking at usb sticks in Borders today. They are like 12 quid for a 2gb thing which is really small and neat | 21:47 |
| Apex- | Hi there, I've got 9.10 working perfectly on my new laptop -- everything except for ACPI events, that is. My laptop won't respond to lid closures, power button presses, etc. It's a Clevo W860CU. Any suggestions? | 21:47 |
| eduard_ | guys can anyone help me,im having problems with generating new gpg key | 21:47 |
| ActionParsnip | zelrikriando: either way, yu don't have it now so don't worry about it, use the lsusb ID to find guides | 21:47 |
| wilsonj | gasull, I would like for the terminal window to stay open after the command has ran. ;) | 21:47 |
| hedkandi | okay well I needn't have bought a value pack of blank cds from tesco then. | 21:47 |
| dAlfa89_ | hedkandi: Eclipse computers do an 8 gig for 18 (: | 21:47 |
| eduard_ | anyone? | 21:47 |
| Tartaros | !details | eduard_ | 21:47 |
| ubottu | eduard_: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 21:47 |
| matteo1990 | how to unmount manually a drive? | 21:48 |
| hedkandi | guess what! my memory stick which I nicked from my last employer is about 4cm long and | 21:48 |
| ActionParsnip | matteo1990: sudo umount /mount/point | 21:48 |
| hedkandi | has a capacity of 16mb | 21:48 |
| dAlfa89_ | 16mb?! | 21:48 |
| ActionParsnip | matteo1990: and you unmount partitions, yuo cannot mount a drive | 21:48 |
| hedkandi | so like I wonder how old it is | 21:48 |
| hedkandi | They were cheapskates at this company! my laptop was faster than the pc they gave me! | 21:48 |
| kostkon | hedkandi, 2000s | 21:48 |
| hedkandi | cheapskates! | 21:48 |
| eduard_ | karmic 9.10 when trying to generate gpg key through terminal it stops at step where it says that it need to gather more entrophy | 21:48 |
| eduard_ | always need 283 more bytes | 21:49 |
| Tartaros | hedkandi: minimal ubuntu has 12mb, you can try it for fun :) | 21:49 |
| hedkandi | and they didn't have an xmas party but this is offtopic | 21:49 |
| gasull | wilsonj: I'm trying to get it to work for you, but cannot. I think you'll need to create a script in /usr/local/bin/ | 21:49 |
| ActionParsnip | hedkandi: as long as it does the job its fine | 21:49 |
| eduard_ | waited for almost an hour... | 21:49 |
| kostkon | hedkandi, 2002 maybe | 21:49 |
| ActionParsnip | eduard_: press keys and move the mouse | 21:49 |
| gasull | wilsonj: #!/bin/sh \n nmap \n read | 21:49 |
| gasull | wilsonj: and then make the call gnome-terminal -x myscript | 21:49 |
| matteo1990 | >ActionParsnip it says me that the device is busy! Any way to force the operation? (relally dunno what is using it) | 21:49 |
| hedkandi | anyway, does anyone know of a good console app for dealing with a keyring? | 21:50 |
| Tartaros | eduard_: what command did you use, exactly | 21:50 |
| mister_roboto | hedkandi: gpg? | 21:50 |
| ActionParsnip | matteo1990: you need to check if any files are open, use: lsof | grep /mount/point | 21:50 |
| wilsonj | gasull, gotcha... had no idea it would take a shell script. | 21:50 |
| hedkandi | okay I'll look | 21:50 |
| hedkandi | bye | 21:50 |
| ActionParsnip | matteo1990: you can, i think its sudo umount -f /mount/point i'd check man umount | 21:50 |
| Tartaros | eduard_: also, always try to put all relevant information on one line here | 21:51 |
| frode` | sebsebseb: oh, sorry, I wasn't quite paying attention :) | 21:51 |
| frode` | sebsebseb: thanks! | 21:51 |
| eduard_ | Tartaros: gpg --gen-key | 21:51 |
| sebsebseb | frode`: download it from the torrent | 21:51 |
| gasull | wilsonj: it should work with just gnome-terminal -e "nmap; read" but I can't get it to work now | 21:51 |
| sebsebseb | frode`: unless you want to md5sum/sha1sum your ISO to make sure you got a good download | 21:51 |
| sebsebseb | !md5sum | frode` | 21:51 |
| ubottu | frode`: 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 | 21:51 |
| iMatter | Is it it possible to reinstall ubuntu to a partition that was once a dedicated home partition without messing with the home folders? | 21:51 |
| ActionParsnip | iMatter: sure, just mark the / partition for formatting and then tell the installer to use the old home partition as /home, you will need to use custom partitioning | 21:52 |
| wilsonj | gasull, indeed.. neither can I | 21:52 |
| === b0w is now known as zz_b0w | ||
| eduard_ | as strange as it would be after posting here it finished generating the key | 21:52 |
| matteo1990 | >ActionParsnip Thats the output bash 28758 matteo cwd DIR 8,33 16384 1 /media/pennetta | 21:53 |
| matteo1990 | lsof 31751 matteo cwd DIR 8,33 16384 1 /media/pennetta | 21:53 |
| matteo1990 | grep 31752 matteo cwd DIR 8,33 16384 1 /media/pennetta | 21:53 |
| matteo1990 | lsof 31753 matteo cwd DIR 8,33 16384 1 /media/pennetta | 21:53 |
| FloodBot1 | matteo1990: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 21:53 |
| Azanoth | Hi everyone: I'm trying to understand 'whereis' better. Why won't 'whereis junit' return my /usr/share/java/junit.jar? | 21:53 |
| Tartaros | eduard_: you're supposed to do something in the terminal while it's generating, as it says there | 21:53 |
| ActionParsnip | matteo1990: is your pwd /media/pennetta ? | 21:53 |
| ActionParsnip | Azanoth: try locate instead | 21:54 |
| Tartaros | eduard_: move mouse, type stuff with keyboard... you are the entrophy source, so generate ahead! :) | 21:54 |
| iMatter | ActionParsnip: The thing is the only extra space is the dedicated home, I want to install onto that without messing with the home dirs, like installing all other "/" stuff but not making a new home dir | 21:54 |
| ActionParsnip | matteo1990: try: cd ~; sudo umount /media/pennetta | 21:54 |
| matteo1990 | >ActionParsnip ahahah yes, it was XD | 21:54 |
| ActionParsnip | matteo1990: thats why its busy | 21:54 |
| matteo1990 | >ActionParsnip now it worked :D | 21:54 |
| Tartaros | eduard_: so yeah, in this case your typing in irc was part of the entrophy. Not exactly the most safe way to go ever :) | 21:54 |
| matteo1990 | >ActionParsnip Tnks alot :D | 21:54 |
| Azanoth | ActionParsnip: Slick. Thanks. | 21:55 |
| glen_ | Hi, I have increased the size of my ubuntu partition (the main ext5 linux partition) with gparted. Even though the partition has increased, ubuntu still sees the partition as being the old size. Is there something else I need to do before ububtu can use the space? Thanks | 21:55 |
| glen_ | *ext4 | 21:55 |
| zoug | hello! my internet just died on karmic. it was working for 3 hrs and just died. using wlan with ipv4. any sugg?? | 21:55 |
| dtork | My macbook pro (5,1) on karmic hibernated when the battery died before I could get to it. Now it seems I can't boot it back up. Is it just a matter of waiting longer? | 21:56 |
| Tartaros | zoug: click the connection in network manager applet? | 21:56 |
| erUSUL | glen_: maybe resize2fs ? or a fsck of the parition ? | 21:56 |
| zoug | Tartaros: i have wicd installed..wlan is working fine. i can login the router cp | 21:57 |
| glen_ | erUSUL: thanks erUSUL i'll google those to find out more :) | 21:57 |
| frode` | I'm really trying to get a /dev/fb0 on my machine.. any pointers on that? | 21:57 |
| erUSUL | frode`: sudo modprobe floppy | 21:57 |
| ActionParsnip | iMatter: if you have a home partition then the custom partitioning will allow you to set its mount point. The way it read was that you had a separate home partition which you dont want formatting | 21:57 |
| Tartaros | zoug: so your wlan is working fine, but it's not? I don't undersdant | 21:57 |
| erUSUL | frode`: sorry fb0 not fd0 ... | 21:57 |
| frode` | erUSUL: ..as in framebuffer? | 21:57 |
| frode` | erUSUL: right | 21:58 |
| erUSUL | frode`: my fault sorry | 21:58 |
| zoug | Tartaros: internet is down. wlan is fine | 21:58 |
| SuperPii | Has any one tried Virtualmin on Ubuntu Karmic? | 21:58 |
| kappabuntu | oh good lord people !~ :[ | 21:58 |
| erUSUL | frode`: load the frambuffer driver for your card ? | 21:58 |
| noisecontrol1 | you guys have really outdone yourselves this time at ubuntu this is amazing 9.10 is excellent on this Compaq f700 notebook | 21:58 |
| Tartaros | zoug: umm... ok... I'd say internet is not down since we're just using it for this irc chat. YOu need to be more specific. | 21:58 |
| eduard_ | btw guys,does anybody now a good gui program to manage gpg keys | 21:58 |
| Lint01 | which product emulates NT domain controller on Linux PC? | 21:59 |
| zoug | Tartaros: im using internet from windows | 21:59 |
| noisecontrol1 | the webcam printer and wireless all work out of the box | 21:59 |
| kappabuntu | If I only knew that grub --> grub2 upgrade would be so screwed up, I wouldn't have tried fixing something that wasn't broke... I just spent my whole morning/lunch hour fixing the darn thing | 21:59 |
| frode` | erUSUL: isn't there a generic driver of some sort? My googling indicates that if grub is given some option to "go graphical", there should be a /dev/fb0 ? | 21:59 |
| noisecontrol1 | the nvidia drivers were a little tough but I have compiz and emerald working | 21:59 |
| Tartaros | eduard_: menu - programs - accessories - passwords and encryption | 21:59 |
| kappabuntu | etc etc... /beatdeadhorse | 21:59 |
| Jkessler | Lint01: samba | 22:00 |
| erUSUL | frode`: vesafb ? | 22:00 |
| zoug | kappabuntu: i just had to screw up the grub.cfg and it all worked out.. | 22:00 |
| Tartaros | !details | zoug | 22:00 |
| ubottu | zoug: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 22:00 |
| noisecontrol1 | I love the background with the paintbrushes | 22:00 |
| Tartaros | zoug: you can't say wlan is fine but internet is not, that makes no sense | 22:01 |
| ActionParsnip | Tartaros: sure it does, dns could be failing | 22:01 |
| Tartaros | ActionParsnip: /facepalm. I'm trying to get more info out of him, not speculate what could be wrong | 22:02 |
| noisecontrol1 | by the way - we installed it because the nvidia windows updated drivers killed the BrightView display and HP has buried who makes the thing. | 22:02 |
| zoug | ubottu: okay, guys. im on karmic. internet is not wokring. i can ping my router gateway. internet was working like for 3hrs and suddenly went down. i wish i could have shown you the route -n output here, i am on windows | 22:03 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 22:03 |
| noisecontrol1 | not to kick HP for trying to prevent winXP from installs on it or anything - people should realize that Linux is better. | 22:03 |
| Tartaros | zoug: well are you sure it still won't work when you reboot to ubuntu now? | 22:04 |
| zoug | Tartaros: yeah i tried to do that too | 22:04 |
| Tartaros | well with you not being on the system is kind of an obstacle :) | 22:04 |
| Jkessler | zoug: did you set static ips for your karmic machine? i had the same thing happen when i tried to switch from DHCP. It works for a few hours, then can't get past the router. | 22:04 |
| Jkessler | i deleted my wireless settings and it worked fine | 22:05 |
| Jkessler | i checked my settings over and over, could never figure out why it didn't work with static ips | 22:05 |
| zoug | Jkessler: i configured wicd with dhcp off( routers dhcp is off) and the def gateway.. and i can login to the router cp | 22:06 |
| norbert_ | 3o3 med+ our server !! | 22:06 |
| zoug | Jkessler: im using statics | 22:06 |
| Dantonic | I'm having trouble seeing my 9.10 installation on the network... Shouldn't I see it in the DHCP Active IP Table on my router as well? I've assigned my desktop a specific ip | 22:06 |
| norbert_ | 3o3 med+ our server !! | 22:07 |
| Jkessler | i never checked to see if it was a reported bug, but maybe try turning dhcp on.. it worked for me. -- i had no problem in jaunty, this is a karmic specific problem for me | 22:07 |
| simyager | wth | 22:07 |
| zoug | i updated firefox and installed psi and geany. internet's down since that installation | 22:07 |
| simyager | what is this? | 22:07 |
| norbert_ | 3o3 med+ our server !! | 22:07 |
| kappabuntu | zoug, well it looks like that I just did a noob mistake and didn't specify the boot option when grub2 was installing | 22:08 |
| simyager | So how is the new Grub compared to the old grub? | 22:08 |
| kappabuntu | I believe it was error 15 and very very common since there was tons of support on it | 22:08 |
| babz | hi | 22:08 |
| simyager | hi | 22:08 |
| EnglishGent | hello babz :) | 22:08 |
| norbert_ | 3o3 med/+ our server !! | 22:08 |
| zoug | kappabuntu: okay, cool. good to see grub2 working.. | 22:08 |
| ElorTegle | Is it possible to access windows remote desktop with ubuntu ? | 22:08 |
| Tartaros | norbert_: stop flooding | 22:09 |
| simyager | like seriously this is like wth | 22:09 |
| Tartaros | simyager: what are you talking about, like seriously | 22:09 |
| Jkessler | hah | 22:09 |

| Unislash | Drunkpunk: what i do is have my home folder on a different partition... so pretty much everything is saved if i want to do a fresh install (it's more milk-chocolate than vanilla at that point i guess) | 22:16 |
| Tartaros | babz: ubuntu should be online automatically, you need to be more specific if it's not | 22:16 |

| babz | thanks for your suggestion unislash | 22:25 |
| Unislash | babz: it work? | 22:26 |
| Fatb0y | you can edit your host file on your pc to add the ip of the assigned pc to give it a name too to keep from having to type the ip address over and over to connect also | 22:26 |
| ubbunnoob | Oh yea my sound doesn't work either | 22:26 |
| Unislash | ubbunnoob: try going system->administration->hardware drivers and see if there are unsupported drivers for your wireless card you can install there | 22:26 |
| ubbunnoob | nothing there i loked | 22:26 |
| babz | dont know, i am in windows 7 right now. i will check it when i go back in | 22:26 |

| almostAg33k | is there a way to make ubuntu install from terminal? | 22:50 |
| Unislash | or why ubuntu's volume is much lower than other operating systems? (i've tried switching to pulseaudio, which helps, but still) | 22:50 |
| dajhorn | Shwack: If the code is intended for win32, then you'll have to teach yourself how to build it. It will be too involved to get help here. | 22:50 |
| Adam75 | I tried to io install ubuntu from a usb today on a computer. First time It went fast. But I got alot of errors while trying to remove the old Windows Vista partition. Ubuntu crashed and now when trying to install from a usb stick goes really slow. I can't boot into Windows anymore. What should I do? Will it go faster with a cd? Please help me! | 22:50 |
| sidney | SPM says xulrunner will be removed because of a broken package.As far as i can tell i just dont get the Ffox icon? | 22:50 |
| dajhorn | Shwack: Anything that doesn't have a 'Makefile' or a `configure` script is usually too hard for regular people to compile. | 22:51 |
| EugenMayer | is there any reason why pinning would be ignored in jaunty? : http://paste.debian.net/52241 | 22:51 |
| Unislash | Adam75: uhm... it shouldn't... but might? :) | 22:51 |
| Helsinkiii | i'm trying to burn 9.10 from my ubuntu machine and it's hung at around 50%, with "time remaining" increasing | 22:51 |

| iMatter_ | Is it possible to install supergrub from ubuntu livecd? | 22:51 |
| Adam75 | Unislash; What should I do? I'm totally out of idéas. I'm going back there tomorrow.. | 22:51 |
| valros | has anyone used tftp? | 22:52 |
| Adam75 | Unislash; Ubuntu kinda fucked up my computer. I've trieed with 2 different usb sticks.. tried ubuntu netbook remix, ubntu desktop edition and old deskop edition 9.04 | 22:52 |
| Unislash | Adam75: well i'd just go with a CD. I mean, it's not the worst thing in the world is it? :P | 22:52 |
| sidney | valros: i use hfchttp | 22:52 |
| VCoolio | komputes: ok, if it's a general problem with mounting, I don't know; if you need that one drive each time, then like I said but maybe with noauto so it's not automatically mounted | 22:52 |
| Adam75 | Unislash; What if that won't work? I will try to install windows with a cd first then burn out ubuntu | 22:52 |
| Dreger | hi | 22:52 |
| Dreger | jemand da? | 22:53 |
| almostAg33k | can anyone send me a jaunty link? | 22:53 |
| Shwack | dajhorn, there is a folder called makefiles | 22:53 |
| komputes | VCoolio: it's just a problem with devicekit-disks as HAL never had this issue. Even if part of sudoers it asks for a password. | 22:54 |
| Dantonic | Any network experts here? | 22:54 |
| Unislash | Adam75: hm... what you might try is using the "ubuntu on a memory stick" to run ubuntu (ubuntu is run entirely from the USB stick) and then burn a CD from there | 22:54 |
| VCoolio | almostAg33k: like torrent download? | 22:54 |
| dajhorn | Shwack: Let me download the tarball and look at it... | 22:54 |
| Unislash | Dantonic: somewhat. shoot. | 22:54 |
| VCoolio | komputes: ok, that's way beyond my league then, sorry | 22:54 |
| valros | well, right now im doing: tftp; mode binary; rexmt 1; timeout 60; put <file> but i dont know how to specify the target machine, can anyone help me? | 22:54 |
| Dantonic | I'm having trouble seeing my desktop on the network, it is not showing up in the active DHCP IP list | 22:54 |
| tiz_ | Hi all. On my karmic box, Movie Player (totem) hangs if I have a NFS mount which is not responding, even if the video I am watching is on the local harddisk. :/ It won't start in this situation, and if the NFS mount is OK when I start playing but becomes unavailable half way through a video, totem will eventually freeze (though it usually works for a few minutes). | 22:54 |
| Dantonic | Unislash, I therefore cannot ssh into my box :( | 22:54 |
| tiz_ | A bunch of other non-NFS stuff seems to flake out too, so I'm not sure if it's a problem with totem directly, or something else in gnome that it depends on. | 22:55 |
| almostAg33k | sure anything | 22:55 |
| Unislash | Dantonic: the DHCP list from the router, you mean? | 22:55 |
| Adam75 | Unislash; Smart idéa.. I will just boot 2 sticks and take over the file from there and burn it. I believe it will take a few hours tho. Ubuntu was so extremly slow from the USB. The first tmie went fine, but after the attempt to format/partion everything went to HELL | 22:55 |
| Helsinkiii | anyone???why did CD burner hang? | 22:55 |
| Dantonic | Unislash, yes | 22:55 |
| Arsin | Anyone use istanbul? | 22:55 |
| Unislash | Adam75: ok, and you know the distinction between installing from a USB stick and actually running ubuntu from one right? because there is :) | 22:55 |
| frankely | im getting this error: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable), how can i solve it | 22:56 |
| Unislash | Dantonic: and your box is actually connected to the network/has internet and all? | 22:56 |
| Adam75 | Unislash; No, I don't. What's the difference? How do I install ubuntu to a memory stick? ;/ | 22:56 |
| Shwack | dajhorn, I appreciate it. compiling intimidates me still and it would be nice to know it's either not possible for this specific program or get it done and feel accomplished | 22:56 |
| Kirill_TO | hi ppl, my ubuntu box stoped running services at start up for some reason. Could some one please help me re-enable them at start up. I tried update-rc.d, but I get a message that a link already exists. | 22:56 |
| Dantonic | Unislash, yes. someone in another channel has suggested the firewall | 22:56 |
| frankely | im getting this error: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable), how can i solve it | 22:57 |
| dajhorn | Shwack: First, install the build-essential package. | 22:57 |
| ayoub | slt | 22:57 |
| VCoolio | almostAg33k: went fine, but after the attempt to format/partion everything went to HELL | 22:57 |
| dajhorn | Shwack: Second, run `make -f Makefiles/gnu/Makefile` and see what happens. | 22:57 |
| VCoolio | almostAg33k: sorry | 22:58 |
| Adam75 | Unislash; I'm readin about it now, seems less complicated to just install windows and do it from there | 22:58 |
| Unislash | Dantonic: well that's just weird.... it's gotta show up on the routers DHCP tables if it is indeed connected | 22:58 |
| VCoolio | almostAg33k: http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.04/ | 22:58 |
| Unislash | Adam75: heh, well, do what works :) | 22:58 |
| Adam75 | Unislash; I get loads of error messages concering the HDD when booting ubuntu, I believe that's what makes it so slow | 22:58 |
| manpoole_ | could anyone help me setup an hp ir receiver/baster with lirc? | 22:58 |
| Dantonic | Unislash, it is connected I'm talking to you over it... I know what the ip is with ifconfig and it is not showing up neither ip nor computer name on the DHCP table | 22:59 |
| Unislash | Dantonic: i guess there is the possibility of the firewall blocking some sort of trace from the router, but i really doubt that... | 22:59 |
| Helsinkiii | k so i clicked "cancel", and it says "image succesfully burned" | 22:59 |
| ame | asdf&qui | 23:00 |
| Dantonic | Unislash, how do I disable the firewall? at least temporarily so I can see if that is the problem? | 23:00 |
| Unislash | Dantonic: well, that makes little if no sense to me. no ideas here... | 23:00 |
| dajhorn | Shwack: It won't compile on my 64-bit Ubuntu workstation. If you have a 32-bit Ubuntu computer, then you may get lucky with it. | 23:00 |
| Shwack | dajhorn, give me one second - I will try | 23:01 |
| Unislash | dantonic: a simple "ufw disable" should do it | 23:01 |
| Adam75 | Unislash; Do you have any idéa why the computer behaves in this way? | 23:02 |
| hydrozen | Hi, anyone around here good with LVM? I just installed ubuntu 9.10 server with LVM enabled... and I have another harddrive i want to add to the volume... I created a physical volume with the partition... and added it to the volume group.... and now im wondering what is the next step | 23:02 |
| Dantonic | Unislash, ok brb | 23:03 |
| Unislash | Adam75: not... really... | 23:03 |
| Adam75 | Unislash; Can ext4 means problems on older computers? That's the only thing I can think off | 23:03 |
| Unislash | Adam75: i'd just wipe the hard drive using my ubuntu install CD and try it from there, but you don't have that :) | 23:03 |
| mre_ | what is wrong with this syntax scp -P 2222 /home/mre/Videos/ mre@67.223.238.203:/home/share/torrents/Top\ Gear\ -\ \[14x02\]\ -\ 2009.11.22\ \[720p\ x264\ by\ FoV\].mkv ? | 23:04 |
| Unislash | Adam75: nope, it's nothing to do with that (or shouldn't be) | 23:04 |
| manpoole_ | could someone help me with lirc? i need to program my usbmce to work with it | 23:04 |
| Adam75 | Unislash; I don't have what? | 23:04 |
| Adam75 | Unislash; That's what I tried to do from the USB, that's what caused this whole situation | 23:04 |
| Unislash | mre_: try quotes? | 23:04 |
| Shwack | dajhorn, I got make: *** [d_chat.o] Error 1 | 23:04 |
| Shwack | amongst others. It looks like this is maybe be a Wine only operation? | 23:04 |
| Unislash | Adam75: you don't have the install cd :) | 23:05 |
| Adam75 | Unislash; I'm thinking off installing windows and using the windows ubuntu installer.. should work, right? | 23:05 |
| Unislash | Adam75: to me, the install CD is much more reliable; i get an ISO and i burn the thing. Very contained. | 23:05 |
| dajhorn | Shwack: Code problem. You need to ask the upstream project for help. A quick look on my computer indicates that it isn't 64-bit clean for Ubuntu Linux. | 23:05 |
| Unislash | Adam75: it works... but not as well as i like. If i were you, i'd install windows using a 15GB partition, burn my ubuntu install disk from there, then use the rest of the hard drive for ubuntu | 23:06 |
| Shwack | dajhorn, Thank you. It is nice to know that there is nothing more I can do other than Wine | 23:06 |

| Unislash | Dantonic: but i guess it works? don't fix what isn't broken... (except i bet it will break sometime in the near future) | 23:15 |
| Dantonic | well I don't mind much if I can ssh... the main issue is now... do I have to keep the firewall down to be able to do this? and how dangerous is that? | 23:15 |
| valros | sidney: what directory does hfchttp work off of(root?), tftp keeps telling me that the file does not exist... | 23:15 |
| manpoole_ | ctmjr yes i do | 23:15 |

| Unislash | dantonic: try some testing with that. It shouldn't be too dangerous, but i've never done that. And if you're behind a router you already have a firewall you know? ;) | 23:16 |
| amer-sa | is anybody going to help me | 23:16 |
| amer-sa | ? | 23:16 |
| === Fizix is now known as Guest6261 | ||
| Unislash | Dantonic: keep in mind that iirc you'll have to keep turning the firewall off every time you restart. I could be wrong, but it's worth mentioning | 23:17 |
| Dantonic | Unislash, ah ok... I know very little about how firewalls work. I'm trying to sudo ufw enable from my other device through ssh... it says: "Command may disrupt existing ssh connections. Proceed with operation (y|n)? | 23:17 |

| Dantonic | Unislash, "Firewall is active and enabled on system startup" | 23:18 |
| Unislash | Adam75: nope, can't do that | 23:18 |
| Unislash | Dantonic: hehe, yea, you could definitely enable the firewall and block out the DHCP server, so it's good they have that message ;) | 23:18 |

| Unislash | bernardo: probably on your motherboard... search up "ubuntu HDMI <yourmotherboard>" and you might find a lead or two... | 23:22 |
| dajhorn | bernardo: Also check for additional sound outputs in the sound panel, and ensure that they aren't muted or set very low. | 23:22 |

| ActionParsnip | git__: usb is unbuffered so is bursty as hell | 23:24 |
| dajhorn | xim_: Yes. eg: "now + 10 minutes" | 23:24 |
| git__ | wonder if anyone has done this before | 23:24 |
| xim_ | dajhorn, thx | 23:24 |
| milkncat | I've a problem with my mouse sensitivity..my acceleration and sensitivity is too low..but my pointer is not very smooth :( what can i do? (using gnome) | 23:24 |
| dajhorn | xim_: Welcome. | 23:24 |
| bernardo | manpoole_, but it should work with my hdmi :( thats why its ment to be hdmi | 23:24 |
| ActionParsnip | git__: for prolonged copys, firewire thrashes usb | 23:24 |
| jonsol | git__: it's bit like asking 'how long is a piece of string'. It depends. | 23:24 |
| bernardo | high definito video and sound | 23:24 |
| trism | git__: well, takes me 15mins to do about 25G, maybe an hour? | 23:24 |
| Snausages | git__: also depends (a lot) on how busy the rest of the computer is, and whether it's 1 100gb file or a zillion 10k files | 23:24 |
| bernardo | dajhorn, on system -> sound, right? | 23:25 |
| git__ | average number would be ideal | 23:25 |
| git__ | i'm not looking for exact answer | 23:25 |
| jonsol | git__: that's impossible to tell. | 23:25 |
| ActionParsnip | jonsol: "twice as long as half its length" is the answer to the string question | 23:25 |
| trism | git__: that is including compressing the data in transit...so perhaps less | 23:25 |
| git__ | trism, 15 min for 25G | 23:25 |
| jonsol | ActionParsnip: LOL | 23:25 |
| git__ | 1 hr for 100GB -- not bad | 23:26 |
| git__ | i was thinking like 15 hr | 23:26 |
| jonsol | git__: don't hold your horses | 23:26 |
| Snausages | trism: these days most cpus are plenty fast enough to do compression on the fly into a usb write.. the usb interface is still the bottleneck, compression doesn't hit you at all. | 23:26 |

| BluesKaj | manpoole_, check your hdmi interface , does your pc allow access or do you have to edit alsa | 23:29 |

| ChogyDan | osirisx11: I don't think it is. I swear I saw a bug report requesting that | 23:31 |
| osirisx11 | ChogyDan: darn! i really want that! | 23:31 |
| ChogyDan | osirisx11: I think there are guides. The main thing was to mount /tmp to tpmfs | 23:32 |
| ActionParsnip | osirisx11: just format it ext2, lot less writes | 23:32 |
| realtime | I just found a command that correctly mounts a windows shared folder from my network onto a local folder. where would be the right place to put this command so it would be mounted automatically when the system starts? | 23:32 |
| amer-sa | ii've upgraded from 9.04 to 9.1 and lost all my sound.i should also mention that i had no sound with 8.04??? | 23:32 |
| ActionParsnip | realtime: /etc/rc.local you will need to omit sudo from the command | 23:32 |
| dajhorn | realtime: /etc/fstab | 23:32 |
| ActionParsnip | dajhorn: its a command ;) | 23:33 |
| nickkontos | no, it's sharing a folder in ubuntu (right click >sharing options >share) | 23:33 |
| Drepanon | hey guys | 23:33 |
| osirisx11 | ChogyDan, ActionParsnip thanks. bonus points for a link to a guide on the tmpfs | 23:33 |
| ActionParsnip | nickkontos: ive never done it that way, i always use smb.conf | 23:34 |
| adam_ | hello | 23:34 |
| Drepanon | I've got a problem with my Toshiba Satellite running Karmic Koala | 23:34 |
| ActionParsnip | nickkontos: try: gksudo nautilus then setup the shares as normal | 23:34 |
| dajhorn | ActionParsnip: Windows shares are almost always CIFS, which can be escaped in the fstab. The user will get better remount behavior if it is put in the fstab, vice a one-off in the rc. | 23:34 |
| Drepanon | it is unable to boot correctly unless I disable ACPI | 23:34 |
| frank23 | I set up a DSL connection (PPPoE) in Network Manager. How do I enable it? I'm connected to the Modem/Router over wireless | 23:35 |
| ActionParsnip | dajhorn: true but the fstab will be processed before the network comes up | 23:35 |
| coachz | so i shutdown completely, restarted and i can't add a new wireless connection, how do i get Apply ungrayed please ? | 23:35 |
| ActionParsnip | Drepanon: some hardware needs the options, thats why they exist | 23:35 |
| nickkontos | already tried, i get the same error... | 23:35 |
| dajhorn | ActionParsnip: Oooh, good point. It probably would work poorly over wireless or an nm connection. | 23:35 |
| ctmjr | manpoole_: am not sure how to patch it (if you need to at all) here is a link to get the blaster part working it is close to the bottom http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/MCE_Remote | 23:35 |
| coachz | i filled in everything under wireless and wireless security tabs | 23:35 |
| coachz | ipv4 is set to Automatic DHCP | 23:36 |
| ActionParsnip | dajhorn: true, wireless is damn slow | 23:36 |
| frank23 | I set up a DSL connection (PPPoE) in Network Manager. How do I enable it? I'm connected to the Modem/Router over wireless | 23:36 |
| ActionParsnip | !dsl | frank23 | 23:36 |
| ubottu | frank23: Setting up an ADSL/PPPoE connection? Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE | 23:36 |
| kostkon | amer-sa, in a terminal: uname -a | 23:36 |
| ActionParsnip | frank23: if you have a router you dont need to setup the dsl, its connected in the router | 23:36 |
| frank23 | ActionParsnip, yeah that's the next step, but why doesn't NetworkManager work in the first place? | 23:37 |
| ActionParsnip | frank23: all you have to do is connecto to that | 23:37 |
| ActionParsnip | frank23: drivers may not be loaded for your particular wifi device | 23:37 |

| frank23 | ActionParsnip, I'm on the internet now. I just want to connect over PPPoE to get a "real" IP. Can't NetworkManager make the PPPoE connection? | 23:38 |
| ActionParsnip | frank23: if you run: sudo lshw -C network; sudo iwlist scan you will see the wireless chip you are using and then make it scan (if it can) | 23:38 |
| manpoole_ | ctmjr i have a list of pulses id like to blast in order to get inside my tv's service menu | 23:38 |
| kostkon | amer-sa, ok. now: aplay -l use a pastebin to paste the output, e.g. paste.ubuntu.com | 23:38 |
| ActionParsnip | frank23: sure it can | 23:38 |
| frank23 | ActionParsnip, the wireless network card is already working. | 23:38 |
| ActionParsnip | frank23: i don't understand what "real IP" means though | 23:39 |
| ActionParsnip | frank23: can you clarify | 23:39 |
| frank23 | ActionParsnip, I mean an external IP address | 23:39 |
| kostkon | amer-sa, also, did you try to setup your sound in system → prefs → sound? | 23:39 |
| amer-sa | yes i did | 23:39 |
| amer-sa | but no sound device there | 23:39 |
| ActionParsnip | frank23: why do you want that, nat is giving you a firewall and will give a connection, you can use port forwarding to provide aoutside users connections to your system | 23:39 |
| Adam75 | Can I burn ubuntu to a regular cd or does it have to be DVD? | 23:39 |
| teamcoltra | my computer is giving me an fstab warning when its booting up.. when it first displays the Ubuntu logo. It appears so fast that I can't read the error... I assume I should be concerned about this? | 23:39 |
| teamcoltra | Adam75, depending on the version... a regular CD should be fine | 23:40 |

| osirisx11 | ChogyDan, ActionParsnip will i have any compat issues with UNR? (other than regular ubuntu compat issues) | 23:41 |
| kostkon | amer-sa, did you have sound in 9.04? | 23:41 |
| Adam75 | teamcoltra; Thanks. I'm so bothered that I can't find a cd or a dvd here. | 23:41 |
| ActionParsnip | frank23: i'm sure network manager can do it but I am perplexed why you want to do it | 23:41 |
| Adam75 | teamcoltra; Got no dvd cd :( | 23:41 |
| amer-sa | yes | 23:41 |
| kostkon | amer-sa, try this. in a terminal give: rm -rf ~/.pulse | 23:41 |
| ThatGuyOverThere | Hi. Is there anyway I can delete my ethernet device? | 23:41 |
| teamcoltra | Adam75, if you have a blank CD-R | 23:41 |
| frank23 | ActionParsnip, to get incoming connections without bothering with port forwarding | 23:41 |
| maco | frank23: if youre behind a router, getting an internal IP is normal. do you not want to be behind the router | 23:41 |
| kostkon | amer-sa, then logour and login again | 23:41 |
| maco | frank23: oh | 23:41 |
| ActionParsnip | osirisx11: its just a different frontend, its still ubuntu like the rest | 23:41 |
| teamcoltra | Adam75, if you have a blank CD-R that will work just fine on the standard version of Ubuntu | 23:41 |
| osirisx11 | ActionParsnip: ty | 23:42 |
| ActionParsnip | frank23: well you can configure port forwarding as a fallback if you cant get network manager to play nice | 23:42 |
| ThatGuyOverThere | Anybody? | 23:42 |
| coachz | where do i turn my wireless on and off in ubunto ? | 23:42 |
| seanscot | anyone know how to enable "seek" on Rythimbox? | 23:42 |
| seanscot | network manager coachz | 23:42 |
| frank23 | ActionParsnip, I think I can set it up with https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE It just seemed as though Network Manager should do this on its own | 23:43 |
| ActionParsnip | coachz: sudo ifdown interfacename will do it | 23:43 |
| coachz | ok thanks | 23:43 |
| nickkontos | ok, solved it my self, just had to add "security = user" in the smb.conf file | 23:43 |
| ActionParsnip | frank23: no, nm will just get you connected, if you want something fancy you will have to intervene | 23:43 |
| coachz | it so weird, wireless was working fine and then quit | 23:43 |
| nickkontos | but thanks anyways :) | 23:43 |
| coachz | my other laptop is working wireless fine though | 23:43 |
| coachz | so i know the access point is up | 23:43 |
| ActionParsnip | coachz: when it goes down run: dmesg | tail | 23:44 |
| frank23 | ActionParsnip, that's the thing. there is a DSL tab in NM, but no way to activate that connection | 23:44 |
| amer-sa | stil no sound | 23:44 |
| nickkontos | But, well, it seems that i have another problem | 23:44 |
| kostkon | amer-sa, check your sound prefs again | 23:44 |
| ActionParsnip | frank23: its not something ive ever done, ive always used port forwards to leave the network intelligence on the router | 23:44 |
| osirisx11 | ActionParsnip: i think this is the one ChogyDan was referencing http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/22475/ | 23:44 |
| amer-sa | no sound hardwere | 23:44 |
| kostkon | amer-sa, nothing listed in input output or hardware? | 23:45 |
| LinuxMercedes_ | Hey, I've got a laptop running Ubuntu 9.10 with a wireless card that uses the ipw2200 driver. I'm trying to connect to a wireless network that uses WPA security. I can get wpa_supplicant to connect to the network, but I can't get dhclient to get an ip address. Any ideas? | 23:45 |
| amer-sa | only output dummy | 23:45 |
| coachz | interface wlan0 not configured | 23:45 |
| kostkon | amer-sa, hmm | 23:45 |
| frank23 | ActionParsnip, ok. it's not absolutely necessary. but it beats setting up port forwarding with every new program on a shitty router with a shitty interface | 23:46 |
| nickkontos | when i open places>Network>Windows Network>WORKGOUP and try to open the "home" computer share, i get this "Unable to mount location Failed to retrieve list from server" | 23:46 |
| ActionParsnip | frank23: how much forwarding do yuo need!!? | 23:46 |
| maco | frank23: is it possible to just turn off NAT on your router? | 23:47 |
| frank23 | ActionParsnip, not that much ;-) Just extremely lazy! | 23:47 |
| nickkontos | but when i type in the nautilus tab "smb://home/disk_e/" i can see my share | 23:47 |
| ActionParsnip | frank23: well you will have to fight network manager, so you still haver to configure something | 23:47 |
| thanasys | coachz: sudo /etc/init.d/NetworkManager restart | 23:48 |
| aboSamoor | any advice regarding a tiling manager that is the most compatible with ubuntu ? | 23:48 |

| frank23 | ActionParsnip, yeah... just frustrating to have nm not cooperate. | 23:48 |
| frank23 | ActionParsnip, thanks | 23:49 |
| amer-sa | yes | 23:49 |
| kostkon | amer-sa, disable the driver | 23:49 |

| kostkon | amer-sa, reboot | 23:49 |
| kostkon | amer-sa, disable the driver for the modem and then reboot | 23:49 |

| amer-sa | you mean remove | 23:49 |

| thanasys | coachz: good | 23:50 |
