| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: you lost nvidea module with an update? garn that stinks | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf sub-D ? | 00:00 |
| klown | ezzieyguywuf, dvi? | 00:00 |
| klown | ezzieyguywuf, doesnt matter, but just so you know :P | 00:00 |
| xJust | ooooky :) ,,, i can't see "Audio Icon" on Windows Live Messenger users in "Empathy" ... why .. how do i make voice calls with Windows Live Messenger users ??? | 00:00 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf don't got to tell me it was a horrible way to wake up | 00:00 |
| ezzieyguywuf | klown: thanks :-) the one with the screws in it | 00:00 |
| klown | ezzieyguywuf, theres two..vga, or dvi..dvi will be the bigger of the two. | 00:01 |
| xJust | !empathy | 00:01 |
| ubottu | Empathy is an instant messaging and video chat client for GNOME. In !karmic, Empathy will replace Pidgin as the default IM client. | 00:01 |
| Roxxor | xJust not sure.. but i think canoncial removed voice and video support from empathy for karmic | 00:01 |
| ezzieyguywuf | klown: says "digital video" so I'm going with DVI | 00:02 |
| sammy | xJust: I think Roxxor is right. I think only the development versions of empathy have voice/video support for now | 00:02 |
| xJust | Roxxor, Sammy, Reaaallly? .. hmm .. so what is the BEST IM client do you guys think is | 00:02 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf dvi is funny looking with 3 rows of holes | 00:02 |
| ezzieyguywuf | klown: and just to be clear, when I remove my xorg.conf, xserver runs swimingly. If I add a blank xorg.conf, still runs great. If I add anything to this xorg.conf, it no longer likes me. | 00:03 |
| Roxxor | sammy no... official its stable... but i read some developers marked the support itself as unstable and removed it | 00:03 |
| obx | is there a program to see if there are conflicting issues between programs | 00:03 |
| klown | ezzieyguywuf, you said u tried the nvidia config? | 00:03 |
| Roxxor | xJust i use empathy.. its quite good... if you llike, you could try to manually install the support for video and voice ;) | 00:03 |
| obx | or conflicts between versions of a program | 00:03 |
| ezzieyguywuf | klown: yes. I can go try it again if you'd like. | 00:03 |
| xJust | Roxxor, how :D ? | 00:04 |
| klown | ezzieyguywuf, was it picking up both monitors? | 00:04 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf you looked at /var/log/Xorg.0.log right? | 00:04 |
| ezzieyguywuf | klown: no | 00:04 |
| sammy | Roxxor: ahh. and xJust: I use gajim, but you have to connect to a jabber server with transports to connect to anything but jabber/xmpp/googetalk. the latest (development?) version has voice and video support. | 00:04 |
| Roxxor | xJust i tried it, but failed epicially :D | 00:04 |
| xJust | Roxxor, LOOOL ,, sounds cool ;) | 00:04 |
| sammy | xJust: aim/yahoo/msn are protocols of the past. tell your friends to get out of vendor locked protocols and move to xmpp/jabber :) | 00:05 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: looked for what? | 00:05 |
| Kage_Jittai | is it possible to read data off a DVD without a functioning DVD drive in Ubuntu? | 00:05 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf when X fails it should say in that file | 00:05 |
| HideMe | How do I set VLC as my default movie player? | 00:05 |
| Roxxor | sammy empathy supports jingle ;) but i dont think theres a working voice or video transport? 0.o | 00:05 |
| klown | ezzieyguywuf, have you tried a restart with both monitors plugged in? | 00:05 |
| xJust | Sammy, hmm .. it's quite hard to convince everyone ^^ .. but what do you mean by Vendor Locked ? | 00:05 |
| maco | Roxxor: hmm? | 00:05 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: it said it didn't recognize the nvidia something or other | 00:05 |
| jrib | !defaultapp | HideMe | 00:05 |
| ubottu | HideMe: To change the default application for a filetype in Nautilus, right-click on a file, select Properties -> Open With, and then change the setting. | 00:05 |
| maco | Roxxor, sammy: ive used empathy to video chat before | 00:06 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: I can check it again in just a min | 00:06 |
| ezzieyguywuf | klown: I can try that | 00:06 |
| Roxxor | maco what? :D | 00:06 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf ah you may have the same problem as i do then? | 00:06 |
| xJust | Maco, really | 00:06 |
| maco | xJust: yes... | 00:06 |
| Roxxor | maco with msn and karmic, not modified? | 00:06 |
| maco | Roxxor: oh no not with msn | 00:06 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf your conf tries to load the binary driver but do you have the binary driver? | 00:06 |
| maco | Roxxor: who uses msn? | 00:06 |
| Roxxor | maco tahts the point ;) | 00:06 |
| ezzieyguywuf | klown: ah now I remember. the NVIDIA X Server Settings guy errors out and tells me " You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver" | 00:06 |
| xJust | maco, i cant see the "Audio" icon ,, or the "Video" icon for that ? | 00:06 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf hmm yes | 00:07 |
| xJust | maco, ooh ,, my friends do | 00:07 |
| xJust | lol | 00:07 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: how do I check that? | 00:07 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf grab a bucket and start bailing with me | 00:07 |
| klown | ezzieyguywuf, lsmod | grep nvidia | 00:07 |
| Roxxor | maco is use everything because every friend uses a different protocol ;) | 00:07 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf lsmod | grep nvidia | 00:07 |
| maco | Roxxor: you said jingle but no a/v transport, but thats obviously wrong since i could use it over jabber fine | 00:07 |
| maco | i only ever knew 2 people who used msn *shrug* | 00:07 |
| klown | pfred1, have u loaded the nvidia-glx-190 drivers? | 00:08 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: I get two outputs. | 00:08 |
| maco | and jingle is a jabber thing | 00:08 |
| sammy | xJust: I mean xmpp is being developed in the open. you can run your own server and your own client. msn/yahoo/aim do whatever they want with your messages, and frequently change the protocols to break "unofficial" clients. plus who wants to use a service you have no say in that someone else owns? especially when they get to see all your messages and do with them what they please? | 00:08 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: "nvidia 7089800 0" | 00:08 |
| drunkpunk | any1 offer some help changing login screen in 9.10? | 00:08 |
| pfred1 | yeah I'm ticked off and if this wasn't Ubuntu I could have this fixed in like 2 minutes but I don't know the Ubuntu way of fixing it! | 00:08 |
| Adantan_Alex | how do you check how much disc space you have using command line? | 00:08 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf thats it | 00:08 |
| sammy | drunkpunk: what do you want to do? change the background of the login screen? | 00:08 |
| pfred1 | Adantan_Alex df -h | 00:08 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: and "agpgart 34988 2 nvidia,intel_agp" | 00:08 |
| Roxxor | maco i meant a/v transport to msn, and thats not possible, right? | 00:08 |
| xJust | sammy, good point ^^ .. | 00:08 |
| maco | Roxxor: oh no not in karmic. it makes empathy crash so its disabled | 00:08 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: so that means my nvidia driver is loaded correct? | 00:09 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf yes | 00:09 |
| Roasted | sup guys - I got ubuntu and kubuntu dual booting, but ubuntu is default at the top. I want kubuntu at the top. Both partitions are 9.10 32 bit. How do I edit grub2 or whatever to swap the entries around? | 00:09 |
| drunkpunk | sammy: wanted to change the whole lot - the login bit too | 00:09 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: mind you, this is with a non-existent xorg.conf, so xserver is using ubuntu's defaults, which I CANNOT check because it uses a phantom .conf >:-O | 00:09 |
| Adantan_Alex | hmmmm when i install "sudo apt-get install default-jdk" | 00:10 |
| drunkpunk | sammy: tried changing it so it shows wallpaper but that didnt work either | 00:10 |
| Adantan_Alex | oops | 00:10 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf oh you can check like X -showconfig there's another command too I forget | 00:10 |
| xJust | ok guys :) .. a dvd to avi software in ubuntu ?? .. or the best all of all converters ^^ ? ? | 00:10 |
| Roxxor | xJust dvd::rip | 00:10 |
| drunkpunk | sammy: in prev versions it was fairly easy and those tons of premade login screens availanle on gnome look | 00:10 |
| Adantan_Alex | when i install "sudo apt-get install default-jdk" i then type java and i get Could not reserve enough space for object heap | 00:11 |
| Adantan_Alex | Could not create the Java virtual machine. any reason why? | 00:11 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf try xdpyinfo or glxinfo | 00:11 |
| drunkpunk | sammy: please excuse poor typing | 00:11 |
| ozymandias | is it possible to install the modules for an intel 5300 wifi card through apt, and not just a new kernel? I have a dell mini 10v, and changed the wifi out to something *not* shitty broadcom and now the dell installed ubuntu doesnt think I have wifi installed | 00:11 |
| xJust | Roxxor, i just installed it .. i have the dvd in ,, but i don't know how to change to "avi" for example ?? .. how .. were ??? | 00:11 |
| xJust | where* | 00:11 |
| xJust | lol | 00:11 |
| maco | drunkpunk: gnome rewrote gdm and havent gotten to adding code to allow theming in the new one yet | 00:11 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: I just did nvidia-xconfig and it kills my xserver when I restart it. | 00:11 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: gimme a sec to fix xserver then I will try that | 00:11 |
| Roxxor | xJust first you have to copy the dvd to the computer | 00:11 |
| xJust | Roxxor, oooh ,, then change it ? | 00:12 |
| xJust | Roxxor, Easy steps .. or complicated ? | 00:12 |
| sammy | Roasted: the file you're wanting to edit is /boot/grub/menu.1st but it is autogenerated. try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/ChangeDefaultOS | 00:12 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: ok what am I looking for here? | 00:12 |
| Roxxor | xJust i dont know what you mean... just work through all tabs.. alternatively you could use lemonrip.. very easy to use..(just saw the interface, didnt test it really) | 00:13 |
| Roasted | thanks, sammy! | 00:13 |
| drunkpunk | maco: so no workaround? | 00:13 |
| sammy | Roasted: np | 00:13 |
| maco | drunkpunk: use kdm instead? | 00:13 |
| Adantan_Alex | when i install "sudo apt-get install default-jdk" i then type java and i get Could not reserve enough space for object heap | 00:14 |
| Roasted | sammy - aint workin, its a blank file... :( | 00:14 |
| drunkpunk | maco: lol now there's simplicity! thx | 00:14 |
| drunkpunk | sammy any thoughts to add to maco's? | 00:15 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf that is the $64 question if I knew I wouldn't be here! | 00:15 |
| Roxxor | xJust http://209.85.129.132/search?q=cache:ft0WsVM7hosJ:jaromes.projects.googlepages.com/lemonrip.html%3FScreenshots+lemonrip&cd=1&hl=de&ct=clnk&gl=de&client=firefox-a | 00:15 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: let me pastbin my outputs | 00:16 |
| xJust | Roxxor, We're sorry... ... but your computer or network may be sending automated queries. To protect our users, we can't process your request right now. | 00:16 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf even with no xorg.conf file you must have a startup log it says in there | 00:16 |
| xJust | i'm trying dvd::rip now ^^ .. thanks | 00:16 |
| firefly2 | how can I install my windows hdds (they weren't recognized on installation) (xubuntu 9.04) and if I have to use fstab: how can I find out the /dev/... to use? thx | 00:16 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: good point. where did you say that was located? | 00:16 |
| Roxxor | xJust no problem ;) | 00:17 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 00:17 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: http://pastebin.com/m6e5d689d for glxinfo | 00:17 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: lemme go take a look | 00:17 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf grep nv the log | 00:18 |
| xJust | So how do you jump to desktop .. fastest keyboard shortcut ? ? | 00:18 |
| klown | xJust, control alt d | 00:18 |
| obx | is there a tool that allows you to check if their are conflicts between versions of programs? | 00:18 |
| xJust | klown, cooool ^^ | 00:19 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: what is nv? It says that's the driver it's using | 00:19 |
| obx | i've got someone on ubuntuforums helping me out with my wacom, i just want pressure sensitivity really | 00:19 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf yeah that is the default driver shipped wit hX Window | 00:19 |
| vinpan | hello i need help install icon themes? | 00:19 |
| kavurt | Roasted: have you tried sammy's solution to your question? | 00:19 |
| Roxxor | obx normally apt-get i think... or maybe only synaptic.. | 00:19 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf the unaccelerated driver | 00:19 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: well it works :-) how to make it tv-out is the question... | 00:19 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf yes even though you are loading the module it does not seem you are using it | 00:19 |
| drunkpunk | maco: can u help me out with installing kdm so i dont screw it up? | 00:19 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf which is really bad news for me | 00:20 |
| obx | or maybe i have a file from another place i'm not supposed to have, i don't know it's driving me crazy | 00:20 |
| Roasted | kavurt - yes, the file is empty, I think thats for grub 1, not grub 2 | 00:20 |
| behappy | Hello how much class in network?? | 00:20 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: cuz you don't even have the module right now right. but even when you get it, how will you get it to be used | 00:20 |
| Roxxor | obx could you give more information? ;) | 00:21 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf yes it means even if I get the module and load it it still may not work for me | 00:21 |
| kavurt | Roasted: so you still need an answer? | 00:21 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf because update updated something else in X this morning too | 00:21 |
| maco | drunkpunk: just "sudo apt-get install kdm" and when it asks if you want kdm or gdm to be default, choose kdm | 00:21 |
| [R] | i'm trying to use apt-get build-dep on a package that is in the main ubuntu repos and in a ppa i have enabled... and its pcking the version from the main repo and not the ppa... anyone have any tips on how make it pick the correct versino? | 00:21 |
| ezzieyguywuf | well I've been having this same problem for a WHILE | 00:21 |
| ezzieyguywuf | what happened to klown | 00:22 |
| klown | pfred1, i dont see why it wouldnt work for you also, im using the same driver u should be using. | 00:22 |
| ezzieyguywuf | klown: you stil inhere? | 00:22 |
| drunkpunk | maco: thanks very much, really appreciated | 00:22 |
| klown | ezzieyguywuf, yep | 00:22 |
| Roasted | kavurt - yes | 00:22 |
| a-stray-cat | hey, is there any way to set up hot corners like you can for os x? (for expose and stuff) | 00:22 |
| obx | i have a wacom bamboo mte-450 and i thought i had to install linuxwacom by source so i did | 00:22 |
| pfred1 | klown I don't evne have the module to load since i updated this morning | 00:22 |
| ezzieyguywuf | klown: It seems that my system is does not like the driver for some reason. have you been following our convo? | 00:22 |
| obx | so then, i posted on the forum and it turns out i don't need to, so someone helped me and gave me a .fdi that would let hal see my tablet | 00:22 |
| obx | everything shows up but i have absolutely no pen sensitivity whatsoever and my eraser doesn't work | 00:23 |
| klown | ezzieyguywuf, yeah, I have been following. looks to me like you never installed the driver, just kept the original. | 00:23 |
| pfred1 | klown i just switched to Ubuntu about a week ago so I don't know how to do much in Ubuntu | 00:23 |
| obx | and the guy helping me seems to think that maybe there's a conflict between a version of something | 00:23 |
| pfred1 | klown but i have been running Linux for oh about 14 years now or so | 00:23 |
| ezzieyguywuf | klown: how do you mean? | 00:23 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: ubuntu's been around that long? | 00:23 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: ah, linux. my bad | 00:24 |
| Roxxor | obx sorry.. but i dont know anything about wacom tablets... isnt there a .deb package anywhere in the repo? | 00:24 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf yeah I'm a whiz at Slackware 95 | 00:24 |
| obx | yeah, and after i realized i didn't need to do it from source i installed the one from the repo | 00:24 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: nice. I been working through a linux-from-scratch build. very informative stuff | 00:24 |
| obx | so i mean everything shows up fine | 00:25 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf yeah i remember when people did that | 00:25 |
| klown | ezzieyguywuf, pfred1 try sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-190 | 00:25 |
| Roxxor | obx do the esentials work? | 00:25 |
| klown | both of you need the same driver loaded for your cards. | 00:25 |
| pfred1 | klown in synaptic i installed 185 | 00:25 |
| obx | they work, but i don't have pen sensitivity or my eraser | 00:25 |
| kavurt | Roasted: you should edit /etc/default/grub file. there's a line GRUB_DEFAULT=0 . "0" means the first entry in the /boot/grub/grub.cfg . so you need to change that number. and then run update-grub | 00:25 |
| obx | is there a way to see what versions of things you HAVE installed? | 00:26 |
| ezzieyguywuf | klown: half a step ahead of you. I was jsut searching synaptic for nvidia | 00:26 |
| Roxxor | obx hm.. ok.. sorry.. i think thats something driver specific.. already tried google? :D | 00:26 |
| Adantan_Alex | Could not reserve enough space for object heap i get this when it installs jdk on ubuntu, any reason why? | 00:26 |
| ezzieyguywuf | klown: looks like I have nvidia-glx-173 installed now | 00:26 |
| klown | pfred1, id suggest upgrading and trying that | 00:26 |
| obx | yeah i have a guy on ubuntu forums helping me right now | 00:26 |
| ezzieyguywuf | klown: should I get rid of it | 00:26 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf yeah I've been there and done that but I guess I just didn't do it right good luck | 00:26 |
| klown | ezzieyguywuf, sec | 00:26 |
| Roxxor | obx sorry.. i dont have a wacom.. | 00:26 |
| klown | lemme look at 173 | 00:26 |
| obx | no it's alright haha | 00:26 |
| obx | i just don't know what else to do | 00:26 |
| pfred1 | klown it was updating that got me to where I find myself now | 00:26 |
| obx | i've spent a better part of today doing this | 00:27 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: thanks. lol actually I been trying to get x server working on my LFS system. can't get the damn thing to compile. the system runs great though | 00:27 |
| pfred1 | I really don't have time for this! | 00:27 |
| klown | pfred1, i doubt upgrading to a more current version of a driver could end up any worse than you already are. | 00:27 |
| pfred1 | klown well you should have seen the system a little while ago | 00:27 |
| alex87 | hey guys, is there any reason why ubuntu can't load as many tabs at once without choking (compared to windows). does it limit connections? | 00:28 |
| pfred1 | klown just getting X to start with the new kernel was not for the faint of heart | 00:28 |
| klown | pfred1, i upgraded to 190 last week, might be the reason why my kernel upgrade went so smooth. | 00:28 |
| klown | ezzieyguywuf, just upgrade, dont remove. | 00:28 |
| Roxxor | ok.. gotta get sleep now ;) 1:28 AM... good night ;) | 00:28 |
| ezzieyguywuf | klown: so install the -190 as well as the -183 I already have? can do | 00:29 |
| pfred1 | klown for some odd reason my synaptic has 185 as the highest version | 00:29 |
| pfred1 | klown maybe that is my problem 185 doesn't work with the new kernel? | 00:29 |
| klown | pfred1, mine says "185" but the version is 190 | 00:30 |
| ezzieyguywuf | klown: apt-get can not find nvidia-glx-190 | 00:30 |
| pfred1 | klown oh well now that sure muddies the water further | 00:30 |
| klown | ezzieyguywuf, try apt-get install nvidia-glx-185 | 00:30 |
| Crash8308 | hey all | 00:31 |
| ezzieyguywuf | klown: ok that one it found. | 00:31 |
| ezzieyguywuf | klown: so you think it's a driver problem? | 00:31 |
| klown | ezzieyguywuf, part of it, yes | 00:31 |
| pfred1 | klown there should have been a warning or something for all of us poor nvidia users | 00:31 |
| Crash8308 | anyone know how to remove all NVIDIA drivers from the system so i can reinstall them? something wigged out and now i can't enable desktop effects with compiz | 00:31 |
| R1_ | Hey, I just copied a bunch of wallpaper into the /usr/share/backgrounds folder but they aren't showing up when i go to change background. Does anyone know why | 00:31 |
| ezzieyguywuf | :-) | 00:31 |
| klown | pfred1, poor nvidia users? we have it good in linux :P | 00:31 |
| MsTegan | My webcam worked in 8.10 but not now in Karmic. How can I use the live CD to find the old driver and copy it to my new OS? AKA how do I locate drivers? | 00:32 |
| pfred1 | klown I don't feel the love today! | 00:32 |
| klown | pfred1, go get an older ati card, and come back to me in a week :) | 00:32 |
| === diego is now known as Guest25894 | ||
| git__ | anyone here know how much Apple bought lala for? | 00:32 |
| soreau | Crash8308: Can you pastebin the output of 'compiz &' from your terminal to pastebin.com? | 00:32 |
| pfred1 | klown I am so regretting running that update this morning but yesterday was a rough day and i experienced a moment of weakness this morning | 00:32 |
| Crash8308 | R1: I think you still need to add them in the backgrounds options | 00:32 |
| ezzieyguywuf | klown: wholly cow! I updated the driver, rebooted and BOW it works! | 00:33 |
| klown | pfred1, i just reinstalled 9.10 last week, and i was worried about the update also..this is the first time it has ever went so smooth. | 00:33 |
| klown | ezzieyguywuf, good :) | 00:33 |
| git__ | who here use curl? | 00:33 |
| ezzieyguywuf | klown: ah but at the login screen I get garbage on the tv. maybe I need to edite my .conf now? (that scares me) | 00:34 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: try rebooting? | 00:34 |
| klown | ezzieyguywuf, before you edit the conf file, try sudo nvidia-settings | 00:34 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf heh this ain't Windows | 00:34 |
| jdgq | alguien habla español | 00:34 |

| apocalypt | performance issues like what | 00:37 |
| MsTegan | klown :) It worked in 8.10 (which I have the live CD for) basically I want to try and copy the driver from the live CD (or download it) but I cant find the driver. | 00:37 |
| pfred1 | klown donno never tried it I'll see | 00:37 |
| R1_ | R1_ | 00:37 |

| jdgq | el w3af es un programa que analiza problemas en web vulnerabilidades, scriptt etc | 00:38 |

| Crash8308 | soreau: what do you mean glxinfo segfaults? | 00:38 |
| pfred1 | klown they could be running the wrong kernel version too | 00:38 |
| Guest21515 | hola | 00:39 |
| pfred1 | klown I can still do my binary driver with my old kernel here | 00:39 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: yea it seems that when I try to actually use the nvidia module is when I have problems. the default module does work | 00:39 |
| SJrX | I have a machine that cannot suspend or hibernate. When I suspend, the system powers off, but when it comes back on it sorta does nothing, it's on but not doing anything | 00:39 |

| ezzieyguywuf | I gotta go for dinner, be back in a bit guys | 00:40 |
| SJrX | I have a machine that cannot suspend or hibernate. When I suspend, the system powers off, but when it comes back on it sorta does nothing, it's on but not doing anything. The OS does seem to come back online, but the video stays dead it looks like | 00:40 |

| Tictoon1 | What is the window type for the administration popup dialog? | 00:52 |
| klown | MsTegan, have u tried ricoh..seems people are having to compile the kernel, and install ricoh for the webcam to work | 00:52 |
| bazhang | !sound | j2bv16 | 00:53 |
| ubottu | j2bv16: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 00:53 |
| apocalypt | razvan is this resolution supported by your video card? | 00:53 |
| j2bv16 | No one help me? | 00:53 |
| pfred1 | let me rephrase that question does the shipped Ubuntu kernel 2.6.31-16-generic have framebuffer support in it? | 00:53 |
| bazhang | j2bv16, read those links | 00:53 |
| razvan75 | yes | 00:53 |
| musikgoat | Crash8308: you can use either version of the library in 64 bit linux, you should try both... but your results from using the 32 bit lib in 64 bit linux will be the same as 32 bit lib in 32 bit linux | 00:53 |

| apocalypt | sixtila there should included a README or INSTALL that tells u how to compile it | 00:55 |
| pfred1 | sixtila I would advise against it usually one is better off sticking with ones package management for major pieces but if you are insistent there should be a README file that comes with the archive that has instructions | 00:55 |

| S0LIDUS | ezzieyguywuf, tininek, Thanks! | 01:08 |
| git__ | i hope i didn't get a ticket ahaha =) | 01:08 |
| git__ | ubuntu isn't dropping gimp ... gimp is not install as DEFAULT | 01:09 |
| apocalypt | ok 4 times gimp i guess it will be his choice | 01:09 |
| maco | pfred1: from the default install, yes | 01:09 |
| maco | pfred1: but itll still be available | 01:09 |
| git__ | u can always apt-get install gimp | 01:09 |
| tininek | S0LIDUS also potosop works nicely on ubuntu with wine | 01:09 |
| git__ | i look forward to gimp 3.0 | 01:09 |
| pfred1 | its still lame | 01:09 |

| S0LIDUS | tininek, Yeah true. But not CS4! | 01:09 |
| hou5ton | wow ... just updated using Synaptic and sound is GONE | 01:09 |
| DerKlempner | I'mhoping GIMP 3.0 will finally put everything in one window... | 01:10 |
| hou5ton | it put in a new kernel | 01:10 |
| tininek | S0LIDUS I have CS4 | 01:10 |
| S0LIDUS | tininek, WHAT! on ubuntu? | 01:10 |
| pfred1 | hou5ton yeah my update didn't go so well here either my graphics are gone! | 01:10 |
| tininek | S0LIDUS: yes | 01:10 |
| S0LIDUS | tininek, How? | 01:10 |
| tininek | wine | 01:10 |
| git__ | wut's the fastest processor out there? | 01:10 |

| Rabbitbunny | I'm adding 8gb of files to a .zip, How long should this take, and is this useful when the files are .iso? | 01:11 |

| pfred1 | hou5ton yes i feel the same I'm no rookie and my graphics issue has me stumped | 01:11 |
| git__ | td123, how fast is that? | 01:11 |
| td123 | git__: it's as fast as a rabbit | 01:11 |
| git__ | haha | 01:11 |
| pfred1 | td123 I've seen a rabbit outrun a hawk in flight it's that fast? | 01:11 |

| emma | DerKlempner: weird. im not sure why i can't. It starts but no audio and then it stops. | 01:12 |
| waieez | Anyone? unshield? .cab files... to get the .inf... | 01:12 |
| apocalypt | emma flashplayer installed? | 01:12 |
| emma | apocalypt: yes because Im usually able to view youtube with no problem. | 01:13 |
| arand | DerKlempner: they've been planning to, dunno what release it's scheduled (if at all time-specified) for. | 01:13 |
| DerKlempner | emma: Try a different Flash site to see if the problem is consistent. | 01:13 |
| hou5ton | hmm ... where/what is the file to adjust booting options in a dual boot setup? | 01:13 |
| tininek | S0LIDUS: I had installed many stupid windows things maybe innecessary, because i wanted to run some other windows programs. But CS4 I just installed it and tried. Im sure there is plenty of guides, and u can always try with winetricks, winedoors, crossover office... | 01:13 |
| Rabbitbunny | emma: Youtube goes silent? Restart firefox. | 01:14 |
| klown | pfred1, http://www.webupd8.org/2009/08/how-to-install-nvidia-190xx-drivers-in.html | 01:14 |
| DerKlempner | arand: Yeah, I've heard that. I don't do anything high-end with GIMP, but I'm tired of having three separate windows to arrange on my desktop. | 01:14 |
| apocalypt | emma i guess the problem comes from that site if youtube etc. works | 01:14 |
| pfred1 | klown yeah i have kharmic | 01:14 |
| S0LIDUS | tininek, That has made my day! Thanks dude, I wonder if Dreamweaver would work? | 01:14 |
| arand | hou5ton: grub2 or grub-legacy (9.10 fresh install)? | 01:14 |
| hou5ton | arand: 9.10 | 01:15 |
| Rabbitbunny | emma: Seriously, restart it. It will complain that it's already running. kill that process. bam flash audio works. | 01:15 |
| pfred1 | klown and i really shouldn't have to update my repository to get this to work I didn't mess with the repository to mess it up! | 01:15 |
| ezzieyguywuf | brb | 01:15 |
| klown | pfred1, its to add the nvidia repo, so u can get the updated driver. | 01:15 |
| emma | apocalypt: actually youtube has stopped working also. | 01:15 |
| arand | hou5ton: upgraded from 9.04 or new install? (wubi?) | 01:15 |

| apocalypt | then do what Rabbit told to u | 01:15 |
| emma | Is there a way to kill flash or whatever the appropriate processes to force it to restart without restarting my machine? | 01:16 |
| tininek | but S0LIDUS just try first to install it with anything, dont stall trash with winetricks or wineedoors, try first without anything. I remember to have installed it to some friend without tricks | 01:16 |
| emma | Rabbitbunny: yes. | 01:16 |
| pfred1 | klown yes i saw this fix about 10 hours ago and discounted it for the abovementioned reasons | 01:16 |
| Rabbitbunny | emma: Restart just firefox. | 01:16 |
| DerKlempner | emma: Just restart your web browser. | 01:16 |
| arand | hou5ton: ok, so then you are using grub2... | 01:16 |
| emma | okay i'll try that. | 01:16 |
| arand | grub2 | hou5ton | 01:16 |
| arand | !grub2 | hou5ton | 01:16 |
| ubottu | hou5ton: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 01:16 |
| S0LIDUS | tininek, Cool, thanks for the info! | 01:16 |
| pfred1 | klown if this is the only valid fix then Ubuntu itself is broken | 01:17 |
| arand | hou5ton: the file to edit is /etc/default/grub | 01:17 |
| klown | pfred1, im not saying its the only valid fix..but its strange my card works fine with 190, and the new kernel, and yours doesnt. | 01:17 |
| arand | hou5ton: and that wiki page explains how. | 01:17 |
| Tictoon1 | What is the window class\ for the administration popup dialog? | 01:17 |
| klown | pfred1, and thats the only real differene. | 01:17 |
| klown | difference* | 01:17 |
| jrib | Tictoon1: why? | 01:18 |
| pfred1 | klown I was reading this: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=133129 | 01:18 |
| tininek | S0LIDUS: I remember to have used Dreamweaver with wine many time ago. Now I guess it should be inneccesary. Do you really need it? there are many alternatives. And for best native use of Dreamweaver u could always use it in a virtual machine too. Because I guess u own a legal copy of window$ and Dreamweaver. | 01:18 |
| ezzieyguywuf | klown: my issue seems to be that when I add driver "nvidia" my xserver no longer wants to start. why is this? | 01:19 |
| S0LIDUS | tininek, I own a legal copy of windows but not Dreamweaver. I got an illegal CS4 Mastersuite. | 01:19 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf ha ha try this tail /var/log/kern.log | 01:19 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf the plot thickens! | 01:20 |
| Rabbitbunny | S0LIDUS: This channel is logged. Smooth move. | 01:20 |
| emma | doing killall firefox and then trying again fixed it. I wish i knew why computers don't behave the same every time. | 01:20 |
| Rabbitbunny | emma: I blame firefox. | 01:20 |
| DerKlempner | emma: It's just the way the plugin for Flash needs to integrate itself into Firefox. | 01:20 |
| Sacho | emma: I used to have problems with adobe flash, but then I removed the plugin and installed a different one | 01:21 |
| emma | DerKlempner: sure but flash was working say, 5 hours ago. What happened between then and now? And then how did restarting it fix it? | 01:21 |
| DerKlempner | emma: At least you didn't have to reboot the computer. | 01:21 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: vmap allocation fails.... RmInitAdatper fails....and no MTRR found. | 01:21 |
| pfred1 | yup the new Ubuntu kernel and the nvidia driver don't work together | 01:21 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf Dec 5 19:48:20 spot kernel: [10959.626009] NVRM: No NVIDIA graphics adapter found! | 01:21 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: the plot thickens indeed. this seems to be a very low level problem | 01:21 |
| S0LIDUS | Rabbitbunny, Its not something I will lose sleep over! Considering piratebay.org | 01:21 |
| DerKlempner | emma: I dunno, did you install any other extensions into Firefox since it last worked? | 01:21 |
| grendal_prime | Im trying to find out what modem is installed in a machine | 01:21 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf ubuntu miserably dropped the ball on this one | 01:21 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: I don't get that one. at least not in tail | 01:21 |
| emma | DerKlempner: nope. | 01:21 |
| tininek | latest gimp versions are said to be very similar to potosop interface, also there are some gimp versions that are a clone of potosop , like Gimpshop. If not any free program like Photofiltre, paint.net run well under wine. My best choice would still be to use Krita and latests gimp versions | 01:22 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf you may be looking at other errors less the file and read further up? | 01:22 |
| Flare183 | grendal_prime: run sudo lshw in the terminal and look for modem in the output. | 01:22 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: what to do what to do. lemme check hold on | 01:22 |
| tininek | S0LIDUS: that up | 01:22 |
| pfred1 | ah ha! I can't use the latest nvidia driver | 01:23 |
| reZo | t | 01:23 |
| DerKlempner | emma: And no other upgrades/updates since then? | 01:23 |
| dooglus | when I installed ubuntu 9.10 it offered to encrypt my home directory. I let it. But now, when I access files, it only updates their access time the first time I access them. Is there a workaround for this? | 01:24 |
| emma | DerKlempner: none. in fact this problem simotaneously was found in the firefox i have running on my host os, and also the firefox i have running in my virtualmachine (which is running ubuntu+1) | 01:25 |
| maco | dooglus: sounds more like you want to get rid of the relatime option in /etc/fstab for mounting your drive | 01:25 |
| === knoppix_ is now known as cuznt | ||
| maco | dooglus: relatime only updates atime if the atime is older than changed time | 01:25 |
| maco | dooglus: so you have feweer disk accesses and a faster machine | 01:25 |

| DerKlempner | emma: What version of Ubuntu? | 01:26 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: so...... yea | 01:26 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf I think i figured out what my problem is I can't use the latest drivers they don't support my hardware | 01:26 |
| klown | ezzieyguywuf, did u change ur conf file again? | 01:26 |
| emma | DerKlempner: I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 on my physical machine and 10.4 on my virtual machine. | 01:26 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: so you're just going to revert to an older driver then? | 01:26 |
| david | david | 01:27 |
| pfred1 | ezzieyguywuf thats the plan here | 01:27 |
| emma | DerKlempner: that video had the same problem in both OSes at the same time. | 01:27 |
| ezzieyguywuf | klown: xserver will only start with no xorg.conf, i.e. the default driver | 01:27 |
| ezzieyguywuf | pfred1: good luck | 01:27 |

| ezzieyguywuf | klown: no prob just give me a sec | 01:28 |
| Flare183 | j3rg: I don't think you can fix bad sectors on a hard drive at all, I'm not 100% sure though. | 01:28 |
| pfred1 | Flare183 I think you can map around them | 01:29 |
| Flare183 | pfred1: Ahh ok, that's a new one for me then. | 01:29 |
| pfred1 | Flare183 AFAIK Linux can even map bad memory | 01:29 |
| Flare183 | pfred1: Yeah I knew that :P | 01:29 |
| pfred1 | Flare183 but yeah even Microsoft can map a bad HDD | 01:30 |
| pfred1 | Flare183 but if you have bad sectors its time for a new HDD | 01:30 |

| jota- | Hello... I have a situation I need help with... I deleted my /etc/ dir by mistake, as far as I know there's really nothing I can do about it but reinstall, so... This machine has no optical drive so my plan is to follow the instructions here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/NetbootInstallFromInternet and do an online installation BUT... I cannot copy the needed files to my /boot dir because I can't sudo because I don't have a /etc/passwd file... | 01:46 |
| pfred1 | Adantan_Alex or gzip -d | 01:46 |
| ezzieyguywuf | lemme try unloading it from the kernel | 01:46 |
| apocalypt | jeffreyf use a bash. rsync -auz drive1/folder drive2/foulder + rsync -auz drive2/folder drive1/folder in a cron it should work | 01:46 |
| SeattleOtaku | S0LIDUS are you looking for n-only? I connect with one in b/g/n mode. | 01:46 |
| apocalypt | i guess | 01:46 |

| jota- | that's an option... but if I can actually just go into recovery mode and copy the needed files to /boot I think it'b easier than the usb install | 01:49 |
| xJust | ok guys :) .. using pidgen ,, i can chat to yahoo users ,, can get in "Chat rooms" ,, but can't use voice .. and ppl don't see me type in "chat" no matter how much i try ... what is this ?? | 01:49 |

| pfred1 | NickM|Netbook OK just checking easy mistake for some to make | 01:57 |
| maco | xJust: by default ubuntu is configured not to deny/reject packets on any port; however, since no services are listening on any ports by default, this doesn't matter. it behaves the same as a drop | 01:57 |

| SeLEcto | usser_ this is a dedi server he got from some company, and apperantly he was smart enough to buy it from a reseller, who dousnt care much. | 02:26 |
| usser_ | SeLEcto, no but does he have a monitor connected to the server at his apartment? cause with all that resolution autodetection x fails to start if it doesnt have any outputs to display to | 02:26 |

| nakake | i was told ubuntu can work out of the box and now i can't even play mp3s lol | 02:28 |
| bazhang | nakake, you have been told multiple times, how to do this. Please do so and stop repeating. | 02:28 |
| SeLEcto | usser_ any idéas? | 02:28 |
| nakake | bazhang: you dont know how to explain anything, thanks for teaching me how to double click though, because that was obviously the main issue here | 02:29 |
| AnonYmous2 | nakake: the problem is not the OS, but the dodgy codecs your media's encoded in | 02:29 |
| usser_ | SeLEcto, im afraid not sorry. never had X go defunct | 02:29 |
| squircle | hey everybody, i'm having a problem with my dovecot-postfix install. it complains about not being able to access the mysql database because its access was denied (access denied for 'postfix'@'localhost' using password: YES), but postfix can access the database perfectly fine. why wouldn't dovecot be able to? | 02:29 |
| nakake | AnonYmous2: oh yea, mp3 codecs are real dodgy | 02:29 |
| usser_ | SeLEcto, what version you're running maybe try to update | 02:29 |
| bazhang | nakake, no need for the attitude. we are volunteers here. | 02:29 |

| AnonYmous2 | nakake: dude! please pay attention! people are taking time to help you out. go to www.medibuntu.org, click on the howto-link & add & update your repository. it's 3 click & a copy & paste. if you're not willing to do something so simple, then give me root ssh admin to you box & we'll fix it FOR you | 02:31 |
| nakake | i dont know what pkg the codec is | 02:31 |
| kian | AnonYmous2, have any tips on getting gtalk to work with empathy or pidgin | 02:31 |
| trism | nakake: to play mp3 all you need to do is install ubuntu-restricted-extras, it will give you all the restricted codecs, plus flash and a few other things | 02:31 |
| reploved | teste | 02:31 |
| bdfoster_iPhone | nakake: the reason why it isn't included is due to legal issues. a simple google search will tell you all the ways you can get mp3's to play on ubuntu | 02:31 |
| nakake | AnonYmous2: i already told you five times that i did that and i keep asking "what's next" or rephrase it to "then whta?" and you obviously dont get that | 02:31 |
| AnonYmous2 | nakake: you DO NOT need to explicitly add codecs; the medibuntu allows it to be dome automatically. you've been told this a few times now | 02:31 |
| nakake | AnonYmous2: then what? | 02:32 |
| git__ | nakake, does ur sound work? | 02:32 |
| trism | you don't need medibuntu to play mp3, it is in ubuntu-restricted-extras | 02:32 |
| SeLEcto | nakake nice, people are trying to help you out, and you are rude. I'm sure that tactic works. | 02:32 |

| gdiz | Mike_lifeguard, oh ok, so I am very new to this: is ncpmc a form of mpd or something that goes on top of mpd | 03:02 |
| kian | AnonYmous2, your gonna kill me, I forgot i had moblock running | 03:02 |
| AnonYmous2 | kian: hehehehe. it's the little things that trip us up, eh....? | 03:03 |
| binMonkey | breinera: shit. now it's telling me 'command not found' and i it's not in the repos i have enabled. | 03:03 |

| kian | AnonYmous2, hope that fixes it | 03:03 |
| AnonYmous2 | kian: good luck | 03:03 |
| Mike_lifeguard | gdiz: mpd is the music server (database of your music etc); ncpmc is the music client (what you as the user interact with - choosing what to play etc) | 03:03 |
| apocalypt | AnonYmous2 multiseat-x problems under gdm 2.28? | 03:04 |
| Mike_lifeguard | gdiz: There are other options, but that's what I'd recommend. Note that ubuntu's default setup for mpd is *not good*, so you will have to tweak it | 03:04 |
| AnonYmous2 | hi apocalypt: thanks for the response | 03:04 |

| breinera | binMonkey: if you want you can do it the graphical way, go to System and then "Software Sources", click on the tab "Other software", click the "add" button, for the apt line just put "ppa:jonobacon/ppa" and it will add that repo | 03:06 |
| Guest5030 | Hi, anyone know of a channel where you talk about ubuntu and linux but in Spanish | 03:06 |
| bazhang | aaron__, please discuss in #ubuntu-offtopic NOT here | 03:06 |
| Mike_lifeguard | gdiz: It assumes you want it to be system-wide, which you probably don't. So, for example, it starts mpd on start-up, but pointing at a location that has no music in it (ie the systemwide location) -- whereas you want it to not start at boot time so you can start it when you need it and it will use ~/.mpd/mpd.conf which you will configure correctly to point at your music library | 03:06 |

| MrKeuner | hello, I'd like to buy a laptop which will work without any major problems, including problem free suspend and all. i am aware that companies are not eager to work with GNU/Linux on that. So, I was wondering if Ubuntu community has a site where they promote problem free hardware. | 03:07 |
| wgrant | campee: The alternate CD offers full-disk encryption, while the desktop CD allows encryption of your home directory. | 03:07 |
| apocalypt | no i just saw u have to downgrade GDM that all what i know about multiseat-x. i'm sorry | 03:07 |

| aaron__ | I am having trouble in upgrading to ubuntu 9.10 the update manager fails to install some packages for the upgrade. what should I do? | 03:08 |
| breinera | binMonkey: so "add-apt-repository" is only available for karmic or ppa:jonobacon/ppa is only available for karmic? | 03:08 |
| apocalypt | AnonYmous2 did u try this :https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultiseatX | 03:08 |
| Mike_lifeguard | MrKeuner: I highly recommend buying hardware from Zareason or System76 though! | 03:08 |
| AnonYmous2 | apocalypt: been there, done that | 03:09 |
| squircle | MrKeuner: totally agree with Mike_lifeguard | 03:09 |
| bazhang | aaron__, please paste.ubuntu.com with the errors (dont paste here) | 03:09 |
| apocalypt | ok that was my last idea because i've never used multiseat-x | 03:09 |
| binMonkey | breinera: no. i was asking if the command or the script 'add-apt-repository' was only available for karmic. i can't find a way to install it on my jaunty. | 03:09 |
| campee | wgrant: is the alternate version the text-based installer? | 03:09 |
| squircle | campee: yes | 03:09 |
| wgrant | campee: Yes. | 03:09 |
| campee | thanks | 03:10 |
| Mike_lifeguard | MrKeuner: Finally, please consider *not* supporting nVidia by buying their graphics hardware. Intel is very supportive, supplying both specs and dev time; ATI supplies at least some specs (not sure exactly what the current status is). nVidia refuses point-blank to be helpful AFAIK. Intel is good hardware, and they are nice to us :) | 03:10 |
| TheCash | how do I uninstall a program installed from a .deb file | 03:10 |
| Mike_lifeguard | TheCash: dpkg -r, I think | 03:10 |
| gdiz | mike_lifeguard, ok so just go through and mess with the conf then and I'll be set...ok. | 03:10 |
| gdiz | thanks | 03:10 |
| breinera | binMonkey: add-apt-repository must be karmic only, my jaunty box doesn't have the command, you learn something every day, usually I just edit the file by hand | 03:11 |
| MrKeuner | Mike_lifeguard, I'll get an intel video this time that's for sure | 03:11 |
| Mike_lifeguard | gdiz: yeah, it takes a bit of getting used to, but it definitely works (and incredibly stable!) | 03:11 |
| kfizz1 | Does anyone know of a GUI grub bootloader editor? I have two hd and the mbr is on the older one and I need to format it, so I need to get the mbr on the newer one | 03:11 |
| Mike_lifeguard | MrKeuner: It's great now that we're over the hump of moving to the new software acceleration, should be much smoother sailing that during Jaunty :D | 03:12 |
| TheCash | Mike_lifeguard: do I put the filename(without the.deb? | 03:12 |
| Mike_lifeguard | TheCash: not 100% sure, read 'man dpkg' | 03:12 |
| MrKeuner | Mike_lifeguard, do you know by any chance if coreboot comes with the laptops from system76 or zareason? | 03:12 |
| TheCash | ok | 03:12 |
| maco | MrKeuner: the thing on the motherboard? | 03:12 |
| squircle | TheCash: for instance, if you installed firstclass-x.y.z.deb, just type sudo dpkg -r firstclass | 03:13 |
| Mike_lifeguard | MrKeuner: I don't know offhand. The latest info I know is it really isn't ready for use unless you *need* to use a non-proprietary BIOS :( | 03:13 |
| MrKeuner | squircle , I am asking you too ^ | 03:13 |
| maco | MrKeuner: neither makes their own boards, so i doubt it | 03:13 |
| Mike_lifeguard | MrKeuner: I doubt they use it, thinking about it more | 03:13 |
| TheCash | ok thanks | 03:13 |
| squircle | MrKeuner: no clue at all. | 03:13 |
| MrKeuner | maco, yes, the free bios | 03:13 |
| con-man | is there a fix for the adobe flash - GTK 2.18 issue yet? my mouse still wont work | 03:13 |

| TheCash | squircle: thanks that worked | 03:14 |
| squircle | TheCash: glad to help :) | 03:14 |
| Mike_lifeguard | TheCash: man page isn't very clear, but it'll simply give you an error if you use the wrong one. won't do any harm if you guess wrong and you have 50% chance of being right | 03:14 |

| mgolisch | there is no such thing | 03:19 |
| maco | Mike_lifeguard: like i said, they dont make teh boards.... theyre just system builders. so they take existing hardware, plug the pieces together, and install ubuntu | 03:19 |
| maco | mgolisch: what? | 03:19 |
| mgolisch | as opensource BIOS | 03:19 |
| maco | mgolisch: sure there is. LinuxBIOS for one | 03:19 |
| mgolisch | but its not BIOS is it? | 03:20 |
| maco | mgolisch: yes it is | 03:20 |
| Guest64208 | hello. i am trying to start the computer in recovery mode, but i cant access the grub menu at boot. how do i do so? | 03:20 |
| maco | mgolisch: you can replace your motherboard's bios with the linux bios and then use it to boot your linux OS :D | 03:20 |
| b3rz3rk3r | why would they call it a bios if it wasnt? | 03:20 |
| mgolisch | but still its no BIOS | 03:20 |
| AnonYmous2 | maco: huh? | 03:20 |
| CkhiKuzad | maco | 03:20 |
| CkhiKuzad | i think your thinking of the bootloader | 03:20 |
| maco | CkhiKuzad: no im not | 03:21 |
| CkhiKuzad | GRUB is the bootloader, it doesnt change the bios afaik | 03:21 |
| MrKeuner | mgolisch, what do you mean by BIOS | 03:21 |
| apocalypt | kfizz1 | 03:21 |
| ravi | can some tell me the step to install ubuntu 9.10 along with windows 7 on my new hp laptop | 03:21 |

| kfizz1 | Yes apocalypt? | 03:21 |
| mgolisch | bios is the boot firmware for ibm compatible pcs made by ibm | 03:21 |

| chrismnh | hey can i get a hand with getting a logitech 9000 webcam working with either skype or msn via kopete? | 03:21 |
| maco | yes, a bios that's opensource | 03:21 |
| apocalypt | maybe it helps | 03:21 |
| maco | mgolisch: bios does NOT refer to a specific implementation | 03:21 |
| kfizz1 | Thanks apocalypt, I'll look into that | 03:21 |
| ravi | thanks everyone i will go through this links | 03:22 |
| maco | mgolisch: it is *any* firmware for the motherboard. it just means "basic input/output system" and 2 companies (phoenix and award) have a shared monopoly on the market, but CoreBoot exists as an alternative | 03:22 |
| maco | CkhiKuzad: linuxbios/coreboot would call grub which would then do the actual booting | 03:22 |
| MrKeuner | mgolisch, then why do you say coreboot is not a bios? because IBM has to license them, and has not? | 03:22 |
| CkhiKuzad | maco i googled it | 03:23 |
| CkhiKuzad | it turns out it's real | 03:23 |
| mgolisch | yeah | 03:23 |
| mgolisch | :) | 03:23 |
| Mike_lifeguard | ravi: If you need help understanding what's there, or actually doing it as you install, make sure you come back and ask. | 03:23 |
| CkhiKuzad | but i dont think im going to use it | 03:23 |
| CkhiKuzad | evar | 03:23 |
| Mike_lifeguard | CkhiKuzad: it is pretty scary :D | 03:23 |
| MrKeuner | mgolisch, i am sure patent duration has exceeded for basic input output system | 03:23 |
| CkhiKuzad | mike_lifeguard its even scarier when your bios update fries your ethernet card | 03:24 |
| CkhiKuzad | and then you are stuck with usb modem only | 03:24 |
| mgolisch | no idea, it sucks anyways | 03:24 |
| mgolisch | still wonder why computer manufacturers use it nowadays | 03:24 |
| AnonYmous2 | anyone here familiar with multiseat-x? | 03:24 |
| MrKeuner | mgolisch, because every part is produced by somebody else, so it is very hard to change standards | 03:25 |
| MrKeuner | this is what i think | 03:25 |
| mgolisch | its like 20years old shit | 03:25 |

| el_compA_ | Hello I need help with my wireless Internet connection | 03:26 |
| mgolisch | hm i just wonder why they dont move on to something more current | 03:26 |
| mgolisch | like efi for example | 03:26 |
| mgolisch | but i guess its because windows doesnt support it | 03:27 |
| AnonYmous2 | mgolisch:efi is implemented in grub2; splashtop is something akin to efi | 03:27 |
| breinera | el_compA: what issues are you having | 03:27 |
| AnonYmous2 | mac uses efi | 03:27 |
| el_compA_ | I am using the 9.10 livecd and it detects my networks but it won't connect (with the coreect password)... Im using a wireless USB adapter | 03:27 |
| jay | hi | 03:27 |
| === jay is now known as Guest74184 | ||
| el_compA_ | And im pretty sure it's working since it detects my networks | 03:27 |
| mgolisch | yeah but macs run macosx not windows | 03:27 |
| mgolisch | :) | 03:27 |
| maco | mgolisch: are you one of those people who thinks macs aren't pcs? | 03:28 |
| Guest74184 | i have 8.04 ubuntu and i dont remember user i reset password how d i clear username or find it | 03:28 |
| AnonYmous2 | w7 might change that a bit... | 03:28 |
| breinera | el_compA: if you can see your network and it asks for a password, then I don't know what could be the problem | 03:28 |
| mgolisch | maco: why? actualy many are not | 03:28 |
| maco | Guest11061: look at /etc/passwd | 03:28 |
| wingede | mgolisch: im on a mac, run windows 7 natively | 03:28 |
| mgolisch | pcs dont have ppc | 03:28 |
| XStatik | I just installed emerald theme manager and drug a theme into the manager but it didnt update the windows for some reason | 03:29 |
| MrKeuner | maco, does webcam really work? | 03:29 |
| wgrant | mgolisch: Neither do post-PPC Macs. | 03:29 |
| maco | mgolisch: anything apple ever called a Mac was a PC | 03:29 |
| MrKeuner | maco, on your zareason I mea | 03:29 |
| Guest74184 | put that in command prompt? | 03:29 |
| MrKeuner | n | 03:29 |
| Mike_lifeguard | XStatik: installing and using are different | 03:29 |
| maco | MrKeuner: in lucid it will | 03:29 |
| maco | MrKeuner: theres a third party driver available on a bug report | 03:29 |
| mgolisch | wingede: how does that work? does w7 support efi? | 03:29 |
| Guest74184 | maco | 03:29 |
| apocalypt | el_compA maybe the encryption is the issue . did u try different ways like wep,Wpa, Wpa2 | 03:29 |
| maco | mgolisch: at least, im not aware of any Apple Macintosh Servers | 03:29 |
| mgolisch | wingede: or how would you run windows without bootcamp? | 03:29 |
| el_compA__ | I am using wpa2 | 03:30 |
| maco | mgolisch: they actually call the servers servers and the phones phones and the ipods ipods.... | 03:30 |
| breinera | Guest74184: you can edit /etc/shadow if you are root | 03:30 |
| MrKeuner | maco, everything on the laptop will not work necessarily? that's is very frustrating | 03:30 |
| maco | MrKeuner: anything advertised will work | 03:30 |
| maco | MrKeuner: if its not listed in the features list, its not guaranteed to work | 03:30 |
| el_compA__ | But I didn't try others because I hear that wpa2 is the safest | 03:30 |
| wingede | mgolisch: vista did efi with sp1 on x64 | 03:30 |
| Mike_lifeguard | el_compA__: It has to match what the wireless router is using | 03:31 |
| apocalypt | WPA2 AES? | 03:31 |
| MrKeuner | maco, so on system76 web site all laptops feature a webcam builtin, so they should work huh? | 03:31 |
| el_compA__ | Yes my wireless router is using wpa2 | 03:31 |
| breinera | Guest74184: inside /etc/shadow you will see the username and then a ":" and then a long string which represents the password once it is encrypted delete the long string it should be between the : and : | 03:31 |
| wgrant | wingede, mgolisch: And the Windows IA64 port has always done EFI. | 03:31 |
| maco | MrKeuner: no idea. ive never bought from them | 03:31 |
| wgrant | wingede, mgolisch: But this is off-topic. | 03:31 |
| maco | MrKeuner: i just know za's policy is to only list in the specs list what actually functions | 03:32 |
| wingede | wgrant: indeed, but someone has become wiser :) | 03:32 |
| Guest74184 | how do i access root | 03:32 |
| maco | Guest74184: sudo | 03:32 |
| Mike_lifeguard | !sudo | Guest74184 | 03:32 |
| ubottu | Guest74184: 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) | 03:32 |
| Guest74184 | i have lappy in front of me | 03:32 |
| Guest74184 | im there | 03:32 |
| apocalypt | el_compA which encryption? TKIP/AES or what | 03:32 |
| el_compA__ | apocalypt: i think it's Wpa2-psk | 03:32 |
| klown | I cannot get any mp3s to play in amarok, it shows all my music, the test wav from the config file plays, but it runs through a 4 minute mp3 in about 5 seconds, with no sound sent to the soundcard | 03:32 |
| perlsyntax | How do i run python-unit in ubuntu 9.10? | 03:32 |
| apocalypt | u have to choose the same like your router config has | 03:33 |
| el_compA__ | apocalypt: Im not sure could you l | 03:33 |
| rampage73 | klown: you probably need to install the mp3 plugins or codecs | 03:33 |
| el_compA__ | Tell me how o check | 03:33 |
| breinera | Guest74184: press Alt-F2 when it gives you a prompt type "gksudo gedit /etc/shadow" and then you can edit it | 03:34 |
| el_compA__ | apocalypt: It use to work very easily with 9.04 | 03:34 |
| apocalypt | just try all the different encryption available for WPA2 one of these should work | 03:34 |

| brandon` | and xfce seems the fastest | 03:47 |
| AlphaWaves | im banned from ubuntu-fr... | 03:47 |
| maco | brandon`: i prefer kde. and the reason they arent all installed by default is that ubuntu already takes 698 of 700 mb of its disc space :P | 03:47 |
| brandon` | ahhh ok | 03:47 |

| Rewt` | anyhow.. I'll keep an eye on it.. was just wondering if anyone else had an issue close to that | 03:57 |
| ravi | khensthoth: I read from some blogs that dual boot with windows7 does not work because window 7 has a hidden partition which is not detected by ubuntu | 03:57 |
| ravi | in such case, ubutu does a fresh install and remove window7 | 03:58 |
| rivoot | Im not so sure about that ravi | 03:58 |

| === david is now known as Guest33958 | ||
| AnonYmous2 | ravi: khensthoth: not so; I've seen w7 & ubuntu co-exist, but it's tricky | 03:58 |
| johnfg | Just installed karmic for the 2nd time, to give it another try. Grub still won't boot the system! | 03:59 |
| rivoot | I had win7 RC1 and ubuntu working in the same machine | 03:59 |

| * om26er expirement a dualboot with '7' on a computer and worked | 03:59 | |

| AnonYmous2 | ravi: not sure anymore. don't use windows outside VM's | 03:59 |
| johnfg | But with karmic, it just hangs at the grub prompt. | 03:59 |
| khensthoth | ravi: There's a whole thread here about dual booting Windows 7 and Ubuntu Karmic and above http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1035999 | 04:00 |
| johnfg | DaZ Where is grub.conf or menu.lst now? | 04:00 |
| el_compA | Try it in virtual box and if it works then try it on your hard drive | 04:00 |
| DaZ | johnfg: dunno, ubuntu people put it in some really wrong place iirc | 04:00 |
| rivoot | ravi maybe you're right, I haven't tried it with win7 | 04:01 |
| johnfg | I've never had trouble with the dual boot before, in fact, ubuntu has generally handled it better than other distros. | 04:01 |
| ravi | khensthoth: this requires ubuntu to install first. this will not work in my case as I have my laptop preinstalled with window 7 | 04:01 |
| AnonYmous2 | ravi: best to install w7 on a completely seperate drive & then mod ur grub config to throw bootloader to win part | 04:02 |
| DaZ | johnfg: find /etc/ /boot/ /usr/ |grep grub.conf | 04:02 |
| ravi | so I donot have anything to reinstall window 7 if it crashes | 04:02 |
| arand | Abiword hangs on startup, blank window. Neither reinstalling/reconfiguring nor removing .AbiSuite/ folder helps, Abiword has worked perfectly before. Help? | 04:02 |

| Shoe | And no legal means of getting a different one? | 04:04 |
| daftykins | first time i've left a client running for a long time | 04:04 |
| khensthoth | ravi: The issue with Windows 7, if any, is regarding the bootloader. I don't think booting through the Live CD is a good way of testing if you will have any problems dualbooting. | 04:04 |
| Shoe | without spending some dough? | 04:04 |
| AnonYmous2 | OK. last try before signing off: anyone here familiar with multiseat-x? | 04:05 |

| Fizix | XStatik, I prefer Geany over anjuta or Eclipse if you only need basic C++ action | 04:10 |
| Fizix | I have Eclipse as well, but that's because I'm toying around with the idea of making my own Google Android Apps, and Google makes a plug-in for that IDE to make app creating easier | 04:10 |

| daftykins | nah? maybe some of its' features? i don't know, just guessing | 04:12 |
| DaZ | no. | 04:12 |
| daftykins | any ideas on the rest then? :) | 04:12 |
| steev | daftykins: screen needs, at most, selinux policies, pam, and ncurses | 04:13 |
| Guest74184 | password is reset | 04:13 |

| === david is now known as Guest9131 | ||
| khensthoth | steev: Looking at Synaptic, it says it recommends Byobu, which depends on python and all that. So you need to install without installing the recommended stuff. Don't know what the correct option would be though | 04:14 |

| Roasted | bam_bam - hows it mounting? To a generic location in /media? | 04:43 |
| Bam_Bam | Yeah | 04:43 |
| Roasted | bam_bam do you want it to mount to the same location each time you boot up? | 04:43 |
| Bam_Bam | Idc if it happens every time I boot | 04:43 |

| Roasted | bam_bam this is relatively easy to do | 04:44 |
| Roasted | bam_bam theres a guide out there, let me dig it up for you, one second | 04:44 |
| Bam_Bam | Roasted, /media/172542E86ADE3372 | 04:44 |
| daftykins | are you using the UUID? :> | 04:44 |

| Roasted | bam_bam https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab | 04:45 |
| rajeev | khensthoth: http://paste.ubuntu.com/335676/ | 04:45 |
| Roasted | bam_bam - essentially what you do is run "sudo blkid" whcih finds the UUID (unique ID) of each partition on your system. Your hard drive will be /dev/something, so find which one it is and get the UUID of that exact drive. | 04:46 |
| Roasted | bam bam - then you add that UUID to fstab, and assign it a folder, for example make a directory in /media thats named "storage" or "backup" or whatever the drive is | 04:46 |

| Bam_Bam | Roasted, thanks | 04:46 |
| khensthoth | rajeev: Is that the fdisk output for the computer you want ubuntu removed? | 04:46 |
| === linux_ is now known as mdg_ | ||
| Roasted | bam bam - then you add the UUID in accordance to the guide, /media/backup is the path (or whatever) and set the defaults like they suggest | 04:46 |
| Roasted | bam bam - then reboot that hizzy and see if it auto mounts | 04:47 |
| eremite_ | dylan__: I have the same problem with Evolution Mail. I use Thunderbird instead and it works fine. | 04:47 |

| Bam_Bam | Roasted, the drive is already mounted in a folder named by UID | 04:53 |
| evolio | does anyone have any experience with pptpd? | 04:54 |
| Bam_Bam | Which means the UID is changing! | 04:54 |

| brijith | hai | 04:54 |
| jm2 | evolio - what are using pptpd for? vpn or ppp connection or modem? | 04:55 |
| Bam_Bam | Are there any issues know with ntfs and UUID? output is /dev/sdb1: UUID="172542E86ADE3372" TYPE="ntfs" mounted at /media/172542E86ADE3372 but the mount location is periodically changing | 04:55 |
| ranjan | need help for evolution mail please help | 04:55 |
| jberry | eremite_: only thing I found so far is a bug related to html exporting: https://bugs.launchpad.net/tomboy/+bug/182601 | 04:55 |
| evolio | jm2: to set up a VPN server | 04:55 |
| MarkTraceur | ranjan: What's the problem? | 04:55 |
| evolio | so m$ users can connect to the local network and the internet through our server | 04:56 |
| caprajax | anyone had problems installing firefox addons in 9.10 64 bit? | 04:56 |
| jm2 | evolio - the farthest i got with it was a connect an nothing else. sorry. | 04:56 |
| eremite_ | jberry: thanks, but It doesnt help much. I guess I'll have to manually export then all. I'm surprised this isn't already a feature of the app. | 04:57 |
| toast | anyone know how to install vuze 4.3? the version in the synaptic package manager and ubu. software center are old | 04:57 |
| evolio | jm2, that's how far i got too :/ | 04:58 |
| arghh2d2 | toast try sudo apt-get update | 04:58 |
| emanux | hello | 04:58 |
| jm2 | evolio - the best I can figure is that my routing table /iptables is off. | 04:58 |
| apocalypt | toast try a package from project page. may u need to compile it by yourself | 04:58 |
| ranjan | MarkTraceur::i am not able to send any image imbeded mail to any body when i try to do it so me done where as the recipient don't received any image in his mail where as he recives some black spot in the paces of image | 04:59 |
| emanux | how to turn off the shutting down of display | 04:59 |
| apocalypt | toast: maybe it could be possible to get a newer version from launchpad repo | 04:59 |
| svinoba | hi, i'm dual booting ubuntu and fedora. but when i do update-grub, ubuntu is not recognising fedora partition. what could be wrong? | 04:59 |
| emanux | when i watch movie, after sometimes it suddenly turns black | 05:00 |
| frogzoo | emanux: probably in power options | 05:00 |
| arghh2d2 | svinoba: its just a matter of putting the fedora entry in your /boot/grub/menu.lst file | 05:01 |
| Bam_Bam | Roasted, are there any issues know with ntfs and UUID? output is /dev/sdb1: UUID="172542E86ADE3372" TYPE="ntfs" mounted at /media/172542E86ADE3372 but the mount location is periodically changing | 05:01 |
| Roasted | bam_bam - I'm not sure. I always use EXT3 or EXT4.... | 05:01 |
| ranjan | MarkTraceur::i am not able to send any image imbeded mail to any body when i try to do it so me done where as the recipient don't received any image in his mail where as he recives some black spot in the paces of image any idea how to solve this problem | 05:01 |
| Roasted | I dont see why there would be | 05:01 |
| MarkTraceur | ranjan: Does it send the image as an attachment, maybe? | 05:01 |
| Roasted | NTFS is a file system linux supports | 05:01 |
| svinoba | arghh2d2: there is no menu.lst its grub2 | 05:01 |
| jm2 | evlio - try this link.. it mentions setting up route http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=91249 | 05:02 |
| emanux | frogzoo: tnx | 05:02 |
| Bam_Bam | Roasted, me too on my other drives... but this is aggravating... How about if I just mount it by label? | 05:02 |
| === el_compA_ is now known as el_compA | ||
| darkely1024 | hello | 05:02 |
| Roasted | bam_bam you could do that, its not as accurate, but you could do that too | 05:03 |
| skrite | darkely1024, hey | 05:03 |
| darkely1024 | Skrite hello | 05:03 |
| apocalypt | svinoba: try the grub2 wiki maybe it helps | 05:03 |
| Roasted | bam_bam did you add this drive after installing ubuntu? | 05:04 |
| ranjan | MarkTraceur:: yes it can cary images in the form of attachment but when i write an mail with including the image in the mail it fais to cary forwad and one more thing it also fails to carry smily faces in evolution | 05:04 |
| svinoba | apocalypt: ok.. | 05:04 |
| Bam_Bam | Roasted, nope | 05:04 |
| darkely1024 | does anyones laptop double as a webhost/webserver | 05:04 |
| darkely1024 | ? | 05:04 |
| Bam_Bam | But I upgraded from 9.04 ( Roasted ) | 05:05 |
| Roasted | bam_bam - just a future FYI, if you have drives in your system when you install ubuntu, select manual (advanced) partition mode, and you can select the drives mount points right there in the partitioner. It'll make them auto mount from then on. | 05:05 |
| Roasted | bam_bam just make SURE you DO NOT format the drives. Theres a checkbox for that. | 05:05 |
| skrite | darkely1024, i have done that when testing web code | 05:05 |
| Roasted | bam_bam Im just telling you this so you know if you ever do a fresh install of Ubuntu, you can select your NTFS drive to auto mount in the advanced mode and itll be fine frmo there on out | 05:05 |
| arghh2d2 | svinoba: ok, i did some grub2 googling, looks like /boot/grub/grub.cfg is the equivalent of /boot/grub/menu.lst | 05:05 |
| Bam_Bam | Roasted I might just reinstall then, other stuff is messed up too | 05:06 |
| arghh2d2 | good luck | 05:06 |
| darkely1024 | is every one useing Ubuntu? | 05:06 |
| Roasted | bam_bam Im not suggesting to reinstall | 05:06 |
| Roasted | bam_bam Im just saying if you ever do, go that route with advanced mode, and you can take care of this step at the same time | 05:06 |
| Bam_Bam | Roasted, I am suggesting a reinstall so I can have XP for gaming again | 05:06 |
| Roasted | darkely1024 - sorta. Im on kubuntu at the moment. | 05:06 |
| bluejeans | darkely1024: nope | 05:06 |
| Roasted | bam_bam that works too, I dual boot myself, but with vista (meh) | 05:06 |
| darkely1024 | Roasted, im useing crunchbang | 05:06 |
| darkely1024 | so far its the bomb | 05:06 |
| Bam_Bam | Roasted, I've been windows free for months... then I bought a good mouse last week | 05:07 |
| * bluejeans uses crunchbang and slack | 05:07 | |
| * arghh2d2 uses crunchbang and arch | 05:07 | |
| arghh2d2 | we have so much in common | 05:07 |
| steev | darkely1024: i use Ubuntu on my new embedded box, and for my work desktops, but I use Gentoo on my workhorse servers, I use Ubuntu for the random servers that do things like host DNS, and then there are the few Windows (gaming) desktops and servers as well that serve their purpose | 05:07 |
| bluejeans | so we do... | 05:07 |
| svinoba | arghh2d2: it is somewhat. but by default its not writable. even if we chmod and edit, it will not stay after update-grub :( | 05:07 |
| kj4 | Bam_Bam: what mouse didja get | 05:07 |
| * Bam_Bam uses Ubuntu, hence he's in #ubuntu | 05:08 | |
| darkely1024 | i am actually running crunch bang on a 1998 ibm think pad (built for windows 2000) | 05:08 |
| Roasted | no shame in dual booting, bam_bam, sometimes its needed if you want to game | 05:08 |
| Bam_Bam | kj4, logitech g500 | 05:08 |
| Roasted | I use kubuntu, but Im banned from kubuntu cause the moderators are just so kind. :) | 05:08 |
| svinoba | am going through ubu document. if nothing works will edit 40_custom | 05:08 |
| kj4 | <--runs crunchbang everywhere | 05:08 |
| Bam_Bam | kj4, coming from a MS Basic Optical Mouse | 05:08 |
| steev | what is crunch bang? | 05:08 |
| bazhang | darkely1024, crunchbang support in #crunchbang ; offtopic chat in #ubuntu-offtopic | 05:08 |
| kj4 | Bam_Bam: nice | 05:08 |
| darkely1024 | Steev, its a linux OS | 05:08 |
| blackman | steev: it's a ubuntu fork | 05:08 |
| steev | ahh | 05:08 |
| arghh2d2 | crunchbang is ubuntu with an openbox desktop instead of gnome | 05:09 |
| bazhang | Roasted, this is not the place to discuss that. | 05:09 |
| steev | arghh2d2: spiffy | 05:09 |
| Roasted | bazhang - discuss what? | 05:09 |
| Jackinthebox | yea | 05:09 |
| Random832 | arghh2d2, you know, whenever I see the ubuntu derivatives... I've always wondered: | 05:09 |
| bazhang | Roasted, being banned in other channels; welcome to #ubuntu-ops for that | 05:09 |
| Random832 | "wtf, you need another distro for that" | 05:09 |
| bluejeans | my screenshot on #! http://www.hungry.com/~daniel/photos/my_desktops/crunchy_09.jpg | 05:09 |
| darkely1024 | is crunchbang voulnerable to viruses --alot | 05:10 |
| Roasted | bazhang - to be honest, my friend, I really dont care. I call it like it is. | 05:10 |
| TheCash | I'm using evolution(email) and pidgin(chat), and whenever my email checks my mail my chat account gets disabled | 05:10 |
| Fed51 | Toshiba L355D: Karmic: Runs hot, pushing 83c on CPU.... anyone experience this? | 05:10 |
| Madpilot | ubottu, crunchbang | 05:10 |
| ubottu | There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mintsupport), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), crunchbang (support in #crunchbang) | 05:10 |
| Random832 | what's wrong with ubuntu, apt-get install openbox, apt-get remove various gnome stuff? | 05:10 |
| arghh2d2 | i dont see the big deal, if someone uses crunchbang they're basicaly using ubuntu and if they need help the could get it here | 05:10 |
| bluejeans | Random832: your system would still have a ton of bloat | 05:10 |
| bazhang | arghh2d2, no its not supported here. | 05:10 |
| Jackinthebox | its ubuntu without all the extra | 05:10 |
| Random832 | bluejeans, like what? | 05:10 |
| usser_ | bluejeans, eh no, get a alternate cd install only what you like | 05:10 |
| bluejeans | like gnome.. | 05:10 |
| Random832 | start with ubuntu-server then, so the gnome bloat never gets installed | 05:10 |
| Random832 | bluejeans, that is why i said remove gnome | 05:11 |
| darkely1024 | whats gnome? | 05:11 |
| blackman | darkely1024: gnome is ubuntu's desktop environment | 05:11 |
| TheCash | I'm using evolution(email) and pidgin(chat), and whenever my email checks my mail my chat account gets disabled, then I have to reenable it | 05:11 |
| darkely1024 | the GUI interface pretty much? | 05:11 |
| Random832 | usser_, so does the alternate cd work basically the same way debian does (or at least used to), where it extracts a 20-ish MB base tar, and then lets you select 'task packages' to install common things? | 05:11 |
| usser_ | Random832, i think so, its alternate or ubuntu minimal i forgot which | 05:12 |
| blackman | Random832: you do not have choices as debian presents | 05:12 |
| usser_ | Random832, but personally i just go with debian nowadays | 05:12 |
| darkely1024 | is debian a good OS it looked corny | 05:12 |
| Jackinthebox | i had a lot of trouble with arch | 05:12 |
| kj4 | usser_: theres a lot of that going around | 05:12 |
| bazhang | !ot | darkely1024 | 05:12 |
| ubottu | darkely1024: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 05:12 |
| Random832 | I still don't understand why ubuntu insists on forking distros just to have a different desktop environment - why can't they all be supported in one distro? | 05:12 |
| usser_ | darkely1024, debian is awesome | 05:12 |
| Fed51 | does anyone know how to reduce the heat issue in karmic? | 05:13 |
| Madpilot | Random832, they aren't official forks, they're community-driven things. | 05:13 |
| Madpilot | which is one of the reasons they are not supported here in #ubuntu... | 05:13 |
| Random832 | Madpilot, I was including kubuntu and xubuntu in that statement. | 05:13 |
| arghh2d2 | bazhang: nevertheless, its just a matter of me comin in here and not telling you i use ubuntu...but then again the more active "ubuntu support" users in here focus on running people through a series of gnome menus to help people. not much use in crunchbang | 05:13 |
| blackman | because kde and xfce are afterthoughts and the meat of the effort put into ubuntu is worth more than the rest of the distrlets | 05:13 |
| darkely1024 | Usser_ - idk i ahvent tryed my opinion was based off of others experience | 05:13 |
| Madpilot | Random832, because "one DE per ISO" is simpler | 05:13 |
| bluejeans | .. and then there's the rebels who just don't like the groupy-popularity of the ubuntu crowd.. | 05:13 |
| Random832 | right | 05:13 |
| Random832 | but that can just be different ISOs | 05:13 |
| Random832 | but all one _project_ | 05:14 |
| usser_ | darkely1024, debian is pretty much ubuntu without annoyances and hand holding such as missing xorg.conf and such | 05:14 |
| blackman | the same reason debian has different projects for different architechtures: organization. otherwise it'd be unfeasible to mantain | 05:14 |
| darkely1024 | brb' | 05:14 |
| * Psinetic needs some SERIOUS help b/c apparently his kernel is messed up. | 05:14 | |
| lukaswoj | hi all ubuntu fans | 05:14 |
| Random832 | debian has different projects for different architectures/ | 05:14 |
| bazhang | darkely1024, usser_ please take the debian chat to #ubuntu-offtopic | 05:14 |
| caprajax | cannot install firefox addons in Ububtu 9.10 64 bit. anyone have any have any ideas? | 05:15 |
| Flannel | Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and others (Myth, Edu, studio, Lubuntu as of Lucid), aren't forks. They're flavors. They are under the Ubuntu (distribution) banner, but they have separate support channels because that way you can deal with KDE in one, Gnome in another, etc. Makes it easier for everyone involved. | 05:15 |
| Madpilot | Random832, they're all part of the Ubuntu project, they just have different names. Simpler than "Ubuntu+Gnome", "Ubuntu+KDE" etc when people often don't know what Gnome/KDE/etc are | 05:15 |
| Random832 | I thought they had, like, a build farm that built every package for every architecture | 05:15 |
| blackman | usser_: um, sure, if you're willing to ignore dpkg launching dialog for configuration (and not call it hand holding) | 05:15 |
| Random832 | Flannel, right, but all the command line stuff is the same | 05:15 |
| TheCash | I'm using evolution(email) and pidgin(chat), and whenever my email checks my mail my chat account gets disabled | 05:16 |
| Madpilot | Flannel, spoons, not forks :) | 05:16 |
| Random832 | and how to install specific packages that people might want regardless of flavor (e.g. firefox, gimp, etc) | 05:16 |
| Psinetic | hey everyone. anyone willing to sit down and help me with a kernel problem? i tried to install eve online the other day and it wouldn't do it, last time i came to this chat they said it was a kernel problem that was causing it to not install properly. i had to leave because it was getting very late. i'm running karmic. | 05:16 |
| Psinetic | 64 bit | 05:16 |
| blackman | Random832: that works transparently already | 05:16 |
| Flannel | Random832: I'm confused as to your question then, and we're getting offtopic (non-support), I'd love to continue in #ubuntu-offtopic | 05:16 |
| ddave | are there any issues installing ubuntu on windows 7 laptop with dual boot? | 05:17 |
| arghh2d2 | Psinetic: no i will not sit down! | 05:18 |
| ddave | i have a fresh win7 laptop bought yesterday and want to install ubuntu 9.10 as dual boot | 05:18 |
| Jackinthebox | i had no errors | 05:18 |
| Jackinthebox | but i have windoes lol | 05:18 |
| ddave | lol | 05:18 |
| apocalypt | ddave u just need a different partition | 05:18 |
| ddave | yes I will create that | 05:18 |
| Psinetic | well you don't have to sit down. but can you at least help? | 05:18 |
| TheCash | is there a way to keep Evolution from making my Pidgin account get disabled when it cheacks for new mail | 05:19 |
| emanux | frogzoo: i already change the the display settings but still dims after few minutes | 05:19 |
| Psinetic | TheCash, don't use evolution, use mozilla thunderbird. well, that's an option anyways | 05:19 |
| apocalypt | is it important for u which bootloader starts your system ddave? | 05:19 |
| TheCash | ok | 05:19 |
| Psinetic | apocalypt, yes | 05:19 |
| ddave | apocalypt: no not at all | 05:19 |
| Psinetic | fine | 05:19 |
| Psinetic | lol | 05:19 |
| apocalypt | what Psinetic? | 05:19 |
| TheCash | I was just using it becouse it was there | 05:20 |
| duckinator | Is there a channel specifically for wubi? If not, then does anyone know where i can find out information about the format of the .disk files? | 05:20 |
| dylan__ | i can't connect to an smtp server.......... at all | 05:20 |
| dylan__ | i've tried everything my connection keeps timing out | 05:20 |
| emanux | what other configuration cause the display dim display when idle | 05:20 |
| Psinetic | dylan__, it might not be up | 05:20 |
| Psinetic | have you tried pinging it? | 05:20 |
| jmichaelx | could someone suggest to me a decent cd player app for a minimal system? i have not been able to find much of anything. | 05:20 |
| duckinator | jmichaelx: vlc? | 05:20 |
| dylan__ | smtp.live.com | 05:20 |
| Jackinthebox | vlc | 05:20 |
| dylan__ | it connnects but it keeps timing out | 05:20 |
| Psinetic | dylan__, it might be authentication | 05:20 |
| dylan__ | Psinetic: what should i do abou tit | 05:21 |
| Madpilot | jmichaelx, soundjuicer - plays and rips, does nothing else. Much nicer than Rythmbox's mess, IMO. | 05:21 |
| Psinetic | dylan__, if it's authentication then that means your username or password is wrong | 05:21 |
| jmichaelx | duckinator: i have vlc installed, but the audio is slightly choppy... it is what i trioed first | 05:21 |
| emanux | how to prevent screen to dim when idle? | 05:21 |
| dylan__ | Psinetic: no that's not it either then | 05:21 |
| Jackinthebox | i get errors with Rythmbox | 05:21 |
| Psinetic | hmmm | 05:21 |
| duckinator | jmichaelx: hm, what are the specs and what wm are you using? odds are the wm is beating up your CPU :P | 05:21 |
| dylan__ | Psinetic: i can retrieve email i just can't send it | 05:21 |
| al_nz1 | anyone here running compiz-fusion? | 05:21 |
| jm2 | jmichaelx - does rhytmnbox work? | 05:22 |
| jmichaelx | Madpilot: ok, i may try sound-juicer... i had not tried it, as this old machine has no burner... but if it plays CDs well, that may be the way to go. | 05:22 |
| Psinetic | dylan__, then you might not be running the right port | 05:22 |
| apocalypt | ddave: u know how to install ubuntu? | 05:22 |
| emanux | i already uncheck some options in power management | 05:22 |
| Psinetic | check your port one what your outbound email is supposed to be | 05:22 |
| ddave | yes I did it for my vista laptop earlier | 05:22 |
| jmichaelx | jm2: i was not able to see how rhythmbox even played CDs | 05:22 |
| Madpilot | jmichaelx, sj isn't a burner, just a CD ripper and player | 05:22 |
| emanux | but still dims when idle | 05:22 |
| Jackinthebox | it keeps kicking me out of last.fm | 05:22 |
| jmichaelx | ty Madpilot | 05:22 |
| ddave | apocalypt: yes I did it for my vista laptop earlier | 05:22 |
| dylan__ | Psinetic: i googled it and i've tried like 5 different ports and all of them get timed out when i attempt to send mail, i've done a telnet test and it seems my computer is timing them out, it's not my firewall, i don't know if it's open dns | 05:23 |
| Psinetic | is anyone able to help me with my kernel problem i mentioned earlier? | 05:23 |
| apocalypt | ok i guess there isn't a problem. i did the same with my desktop and my notebook | 05:23 |
| Psinetic | dylan__, which application are you running to run your email | 05:23 |
| Psinetic | ? | 05:23 |
| jm2 | dylan_: do you have the right port for sending the smtp on? | 05:23 |
| ddave | apocalypt: but if something goes wrong then i can't reinstall the win7 again | 05:24 |
| Psinetic | jm2, i already asked that | 05:24 |
| dylan__ | Psinetic: i've tried thunderbird and evolution, i've also tried hotmail and aim | 05:24 |
| dylan__ | Psinetic: for the accounts..... same result with both | 05:24 |
| Psinetic | dylan__, have you tried logging into it via web application? | 05:24 |
| apocalypt | ddave: why not. just backup your system | 05:24 |
| dylan__ | Psinetic: yea they both work with the web applications | 05:24 |
| systm | how do I edit grub to add another boot option and slow down the timeout | 05:24 |
| quizme | what's thename of the partition app that i have to burn to a disc before installing ubuntu? | 05:24 |
| apocalypt | before u do it ddave | 05:24 |
| Psinetic | what firewall are you running dylan__ ? | 05:25 |
| dylan__ | Psinetic: firestarter | 05:25 |
| astechgeek | anyone had any issues updating with the 2.6.31.16 | 05:25 |
| ddave | apocalypt: there are no personal files on it i have already created the recovery cd ready | 05:25 |
| Psinetic | dylan__, well i just sent over 200 packets to smtp.live.com with the ping service and 100% were lost | 05:25 |
| apocalypt | ddave: so there isn't a problem to get your clean win7 back again | 05:26 |
| === chaky_ is now known as chaky | ||
| ddave | apocalypt: why asking is that i see some people saying about problem with win7 having new hidden parition or boot loader | 05:26 |
| ddave | and not getting recognize by the ubuntu | 05:26 |
| dylan__ | Psinetic: i know i've been working on this problem for like 3 hours and i can't come up with anything besides maybe it's an open dns problem but that's the only way i can connect with karmic | 05:26 |
| Psinetic | dylan__, try this. make yourself a gmail account. then login to your live.com account via web app and have it forward all mails to your gmail account, then try to setup your gmail account with your email app on your local machine | 05:26 |
| jm2 | check your /var/log/messages & /var/log/syslog perhaps they might give a clue for smtp failure. | 05:27 |
| ddave | apocalypt: it should not remove the recover partition for win7 from laptop | 05:27 |
| ddave | only that thing | 05:27 |
| dylan__ | Psinetic: unfortunatly, already tried it, like i said i can recieve email i just can't send them | 05:27 |
| apocalypt | ddave: u just need to configure partitions manually | 05:27 |
| apocalypt | while u install ubuntu | 05:27 |
| Psinetic | dylan__, even with a different email account? | 05:27 |
| dylan__ | Psinetic: yes | 05:28 |
| ddave | apocalypt: yes i will try that | 05:28 |
| Psinetic | dylan__, hmmm...i'm all out of ideas. | 05:28 |
| ddave | apocalypt: which bootloader should i use | 05:28 |
| dylan__ | Psinetic: Me 2 :/ | 05:28 |
| apocalypt | then u can choose the free partition for your new ubuntu | 05:28 |

| ddave | oh | 05:30 |
| ddave | apocalypt: if I install grub2 as bootloader will it allow me to boot win7 | 05:30 |

| Ernest_Bohr | Hi, I'm attempting to output the contents of a set of files to stdout. I've got as far as "find -regex .*.py | grep ima", which gives me the list of files I'd like to output. How can I cat each of these successively? | 05:38 |
| dylan__ | is there anyone in here who knows a lot about open dns and smtp servers | 05:39 |
| dylan__ | or any fast servers i can change my resolv.conf to besides open dns | 05:40 |
| Dr_Willis | shawn__: In the past i had to save to a different file (/home/USERNAME/xorg.conf.testing) then move that file to via 'sudo cp xorg.conf.testing /etc/X11/xorg.conf' OR find an existing xorg.conf and copy it to the /etc/X11/xorg.conf then the nvidia-settings tool would work | 05:40 |
| Dr_Willis | shawn__: the tool is a little brain dead when the xorg.conf file is either empty/non-exsistant, or missing some sections | 05:41 |
| shawn__ | Dr_Willis, SO what do I do exactly X_X | 05:41 |
| Dr_Willis | shawn__: save the config file somewhere else.. then copy it to /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 05:41 |
| shawn__ | SO copy it to home? and then copy it back? I dont understand | 05:41 |
| apocalypt | Ernest_Bohr: try in terminal sudo nvida-xconfig | 05:41 |
| Dr_Willis | shawn__: using the tool save it to /home/whatever... | 05:41 |
| dylan__ | well here, i am trying to use thunderbird for my mail, i can recieve mail from pop3.live.com, but i try to send mail through the smtp.live.com server but the connection times out regardless of whether i use ssl or tcp | 05:42 |
| apocalypt | sorry it was for shawn | 05:42 |

| opticon | for ubuntu are their updates every day seems like every day something new is released via update manager | 05:48 |
| Dr_Willis | opticon: Hmm.. never noticed.. seems about once a week here. | 05:48 |
| Madpilot | opticon, pretty much. security updates are fairly frequent | 05:49 |
| Dr_Willis | every time I boot into windows on this box. it wants me to reboot to install 'critical security updates' | 05:49 |
| apocalypt | that's windows. reboot does it good | 05:50 |
| opticon | well im glad to see that their is updates pushed out hope it doesnt break anything | 05:50 |
| * Dr_Willis waits for service pack one. | 05:50 | |

| relic420 | i have 2 hard drive's. how can i make sure the second is mounted (and fdisked for use with my ubuntu install?) | 05:51 |
| apocalypt | Dr_Willis: win7 | 05:51 |
| apocalypt | ? | 05:51 |
| Dr_Willis | relic420: add a proper entry for it in your /etc/fstab - mount it where you like. | 05:51 |
| Dr_Willis | relic420: of course it has tobe partioned/formated befor you can mount it. | 05:51 |
| apocalypt | relic420: write it to your fstab so it will be mounted on every boot | 05:51 |
| Dr_Willis | and depending on what filesystem you are using. YOu may want to set teh owner/permissions | 05:52 |
| === el_compA_ is now known as el_compA | ||
| relic420 | can someone tell me how to in terminal mount my second drive (sould be sdb) | 05:52 |
| relic420 | i fdisked it for fedora im sure it will work | 05:53 |
| Dr_Willis | relic420: sdb is the drive. sdb1 Might be the first partition on the drive | 05:53 |
| relic420 | i wanna mount it to my user directory as extra storage | 05:53 |
| Dr_Willis | relic420: sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt | 05:53 |
| relic420 | wait | 05:53 |
| apocalypt | try sudo mount -a systemtype /dev/sdb /mnt | 05:53 |
| relic420 | is there a command i can type to find out my drive's and there partitions in terminal? | 05:53 |
| Dr_Willis | relic420: should mount it to /mnt - BUT you may need to set the permissions/ownership to access it | 05:53 |
| apocalypt | year | 05:53 |
| eraser | hi | 05:54 |
| Dr_Willis | relic420: sudo fdisk -l | 05:54 |
| apocalypt | mount tells u which harddrives are mountet | 05:54 |
| relic420 | ok /dev/sdb1 system linux lvm | 05:54 |
| linuxguy2009 | Anyone using Gnome-AlsaMixer in 9.10 and figured out how to get it to remember settings like hidden controls? | 05:54 |
| Dr_Willis | Ive no idea on mounting LVM's i never use that feature. | 05:54 |
| Dr_Willis | !lvm | 05:55 |
| ubottu | Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto | 05:55 |
| relic420 | how can i fdisk /dev/sdb1 to ubunute's filesystem? | 05:55 |
| eraser | can anyone say wats the cause for me not been able to connect on yahoo instan | 05:55 |
| Dr_Willis | relic420: if you want to DELETE the data on sdb1, you can use fdisk, or gparted to repartition iot. | 05:55 |
| relic420 | which is easier? | 05:55 |
| relic420 | gparted? | 05:55 |
| Dr_Willis | relic420: i can partition a drive in fdisk in about 4 sec.. :) but ive been using fdisk for years. | 05:56 |
| relic420 | wanna pm me the sudo commands? | 05:56 |
| Dr_Willis | relic420: gparted is a gui. fdisk is text based.. You should learn how to use fdisk/cfdisk some day. | 05:56 |
| Dr_Willis | sudo fdisk /dev/sdb | 05:56 |
| relic420 | i have a 120, | 05:56 |
| gasull | Hi. How can I install in Ubuntu 9.10 a package that depends on python (<< 2.6)? Thank you. | 05:56 |
| Dr_Willis | or gksudo gparted /dev/sdb | 05:56 |
| i_is_broke | Dr_Willis, i think cfdisk is easier to use myself. | 05:56 |
| Dr_Willis | i_is_broke: but often on rescue situations you only have 'fdisk' | 05:57 |
| relic420 | ok, it took a second then it started a new coomand line | 05:57 |
| Dr_Willis | I rarely use cfdisk. Im just experienced enough in fdisk i dont need it. :) | 05:57 |
| i_is_broke | Dr_Willis, thats true it is good to know both. | 05:57 |
| gasull | I have Python 2.6 and 2.5 installed. | 05:57 |
| zen | #ubuntu-cn | 05:57 |
| relic420 | Dr_Willis, what next? | 05:58 |
| wgrant | gasull: You can't, really. Why do you want to? | 05:58 |
| Dr_Willis | relic420: fdisk has its own command line like interface.. You proberly should read some fdisk docs if using fdisk | 05:58 |
| Dr_Willis | (h) for help in fdisk i recall | 05:58 |
| Dr_Willis | oh wait its m :) | 05:58 |
| apocalypt | relic420: if u want to format the harddrive via command u can use "sudo mke2fs /dev/sdb1" or for ext4 "mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb1" its also possbile beside fdisk | 05:58 |
| c_wraith | is there a way to get network manager to execute programs on connect/disconnect? | 05:59 |
| relic420 | ok im in gparted | 05:59 |
| relic420 | what do i want to format the drive into? | 05:59 |
| relic420 | linux swap? | 05:59 |
| relic420 | linux-swap* | 05:59 |
| Dr_Willis | why would you want swap? | 05:59 |
| lstarnes | relic420: ext4 or ext3 | 05:59 |
| Dr_Willis | 'think' 'apply' 'use' :) | 05:59 |
| lstarnes | relic420: with another small partition about twice the size of your RAM formatted as swap | 05:59 |
| happylol | how do I copy a file from /var/www/images/invalid.png to /var/images/invalid.png ? | 05:59 |

| happylol | thanks | 06:00 |

| hunter1231 | :D | 06:00 |
| relic420 | im formating the drive to ext2 | 06:00 |
| lstarnes | relic420: not ext2 | 06:00 |
| lstarnes | relic420: ext3 or ext4 | 06:00 |
| hunter1231 | so what os are u guys using | 06:00 |
| relic420 | ext4 is used | 06:00 |
| relic420 | Dr_Willis, is ext3 a good 1 to use, ext4 is used already for the main hdd. | 06:01 |
| apocalypt | hunter1231: Ubuntu like the channel name | 06:01 |
| lstarnes | hunter1231: why are you asking that question in a channel where people come for support with ubuntu? | 06:01 |
| FireCrotch | hunter1231: Please note that this channel is for Ubuntu Support - general discussion belongs in #ubuntu-offtopic | 06:01 |
| Dr_Willis | relic420: thers no law saying you cant use ext4 for every filesystem you have.... | 06:01 |
| relic420 | ok im going to use ext4 again then | 06:01 |
| Dr_Willis | You seem to be confused as to what 'ext2 ext3 ext4' means | 06:01 |
| relic420 | whats ext4 mean | 06:02 |
| Dr_Willis | its the kind of filesystem the drive is formated to. | 06:02 |
| Dr_Willis | itss NOT a drive name, | 06:02 |
| relic420 | ok | 06:02 |
| Dr_Willis | You are formating /dev/sdb1 to 'ext4' | 06:02 |
| relic420 | yes thats done | 06:02 |
| apocalypt | relic420: it like under windows where u choose fat16/fat32 or ntfs | 06:02 |
| Dr_Willis | relic420: be SURE you are doing this to the correct drive | 06:02 |
| relic420 | i was | 06:02 |
| relic420 | now, | 06:03 |
| relic420 | i have /dev/sdb1 as ext4 | 06:03 |
| Dr_Willis | make changes.. use apply button.. go get a snack | 06:03 |
| relic420 | how do i mount it? | 06:03 |
| Dr_Willis | then back to where we said 'add proper entry to fstab to mount a filesystem' | 06:03 |
| Dr_Willis | gparted does not alter the /etc/fstab for you. | 06:03 |
| Dr_Willis | Not yet at least. :) that ive seen | 06:03 |
| hunter | . | 06:04 |
| relic420 | ok, so how do i do that? | 06:04 |
| hunter | how do i go to the other chat channels> | 06:04 |

| apocalypt | lol | 06:07 |
| apocalypt | +don't | 06:07 |
| Dr_Willis | relic420: after mounting it - you will either want to make a directory on the filesystem for your users to own to save their stuff in, or chown the mountpoint to be owned by the main user you want to access the whole filesystem. | 06:08 |
| * Dr_Willis sugeests making a directory for each user. :) its just neater that way | 06:08 | |

| cn28h | it's been fine on all the machines I've used it on so far wrt wireless | 06:26 |
| MrPilkington | I just downloaded an auto update to my machine | 06:27 |
| Dr_Willis | tomc: or ~$ sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit | 06:27 |
| tomc | OK - using pastebin.com, here's a retry: Having probable router problem. Details here: http://pastebin.com/d29647c66 | 06:27 |

| oorah | do updates update LXDE also? | 06:27 |
| DaZ | _akahige_: x64? :f | 06:27 |
| MrPilkington | and now the wireless card is not working, as in it is not recognizing my WPA pssword | 06:27 |
| lstarnes | oorah: how did you install lxde? | 06:27 |
| Dr_Willis | oorah: if theere are updates to lxde in teh repositories.. then lxde gets updated | 06:27 |
| _akahige_ | DaZ: yes | 06:27 |
| MrPilkington | er password that is | 06:27 |
| oorah | lstarnes, sudo apt-get install lxde | 06:27 |
| lstarnes | oorah: yes, it will be updated | 06:28 |
| oorah | lstarnes, thanks man | 06:28 |
| DaZ | _akahige_: there's similar bug on the gqview launchpad | 06:28 |
| lstarnes | oorah: although it will only be updated according to ubuntuś package updating rules | 06:28 |
| lstarnes | *ubuntu's | 06:28 |
| cj | hurm... my laptop isn't showing all 4G of memory... | 06:28 |
| Dr_Willis | Ill point out that in 9.10 theres also the 'lubuntu-desktop' package./ but last i tried Lubuntu-desktop it goofed up a lot of things.. | 06:28 |
| oorah | lstarnes, so far its a lot faster | 06:28 |
| oorah | lstarnes, and all the apps so far work the same | 06:28 |
| lstarnes | oorah: which mainly means that it will only be updated for bug fixes and security patches | 06:28 |
| cj | my bios says 4G, the site I bought it from said 4G, but free says 2048M | 06:28 |
| _akahige_ | DaZ: must have missed it when I was looking | 06:28 |
| oorah | lstarnes, thats ok, it works great | 06:29 |
| cj | anyone know how to make the lappy recognize all 4G/ | 06:29 |
| MrPilkington | cn28h: after i had downloaded the update, my wireless connection essentially turned off. I couldn't connect to anything, when I rebooted, the wireless driver asked for my WPA password, when I entered the correct password, it still rejected the connection. When I switched to wired connection it works fine. Nothing else besides the laptop running 9.10 has a problem | 06:30 |
| Dr_Willis | be sure you are reading the free output properly | 06:30 |
| Dr_Willis | free -m | 06:30 |
| Dr_Willis | total used free shared buffers cached | 06:30 |
| Dr_Willis | showing 3 gb here. :) | 06:31 |
| testi | How can I revert ubuntu package installation to original state (remove everything that ubuntu-desktop doesn't depend on)? | 06:31 |
| cn28h | MrPilkington, which wireless chipset? sounds like the card is working if it can find APs though - maybe a config problem? | 06:31 |
| _akahige_ | DaZ: thanks! I appreciate your help | 06:32 |
| MrPilkington | cn28h: bear with me, I'm a total linux noob. Would I find the chipset in the network tools? | 06:32 |
| DaZ | you're welcome | 06:32 |

| cn28h | MrPilkington, lspci | grep Wireless | 06:32 |
| cn28h | maybe | 06:32 |
| cappicard | hrmm... this is idiotic. update-grub never touches /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 06:32 |
| cn28h | MrPilkington, look in the output of lspci | 06:33 |

| Dr_Willis | vegombrei: then copy the data from the vfat drive some where.. and reforamt it to ext3/4 then.. is my suggestion | 06:38 |
| llutz | vegombrei: why do you use vfat without windows? | 06:38 |
| Dr_Willis | vegombrei: i suggest using windows to scan/fix windows filesystems. | 06:38 |

| Peaker | dtownhero: No need to explain that -- I'd not use any non-opensource system. I just think Koala was released too untested | 07:11 |
| lstarnes | darkely1024: it's usually very secure if you keep your system updated and you are careful when configuring network services | 07:11 |
| jongbergs | llutz: i'd like to verify the sting after the purge option it's '~n2.6.31-14' ----> what does ~n mean? | 07:11 |

| ten80p | exit606: strange ... it should show your connection once u plug the usb, i dont know what is your problem :( | 07:12 |
| Shwack | haha nice! | 07:12 |
| Peaker | dtownhero: I think Ubuntu used to have a focus on "Just working" - and that it changed it's focus and that many Ubuntu users now experience sound not working, and various other problems that earlier Ubuntus did not exhibit | 07:12 |
| dtownhero | Pulse audio is a failure and that's my only problem | 07:12 |
| exit606 | ten80p> im comfused | 07:12 |
| Dr_Willis | isolat3dsh33p: Not sure. I just go 'slow and steady' and then schedule my torrents tobe on for a few hrs. then off for a few.. if i let them run all day. it seems the isp sees it and slows them down. If i do on/off they dont | 07:12 |
| arghh2d2 | dtownhero: cry about it, like i said, sorry if you cant take a joke...what do want from me? | 07:12 |
| jongbergs | llutz: i got it, so it will purge packages that ends with 2.6.31-14, right? | 07:12 |
| Peaker | dtownhero: something like audio is pretty basic (and shouldn't be that complicated, too) | 07:13 |
| exit606 | ten80p> the compeny desnt support linux :( | 07:13 |
| llutz | jongbergs: packages with 2.6.31-14 in their name, not just end with | 07:13 |
| ten80p | darkely1024: it can be too secure as in servers or it can be more flexible as in user-based distros, but overall it's alot more secure than windows :) | 07:13 |
| dtownhero | arghh2d2: cry about it? Yes, you must be 15. I don't care if you want to act like a child. | 07:13 |
| Peaker | dtownhero: it should be the first priority to get it fixed.. | 07:13 |
| jongbergs | llutz: i see, many thanks :) | 07:13 |
| isolat3dsh33p | Dr_Willis: nice tips! I'll do that. | 07:13 |
| ten80p | exit606: neither my company, but since the broadband connection detected it then it should work ... | 07:13 |
| dtownhero | Peaker: there are work arounds for the problems | 07:13 |
| darkely1024 | why does linux run so stable on old computers (im useing an ibm think pad that had a default OS of windows 2000) | 07:13 |
| llutz | jongbergs: sudo aptitude purge '~n2.6.31-14' -s to try and look what would happen (-s = simulate) | 07:13 |
| Ascavasaion | I know this is a Mandrake/Mandriva question... what is the Mandrake equivalent of apt please? urpmi is not installed. | 07:13 |
| Dr_Willis | isolat3dsh33p: thats somthing i dont like about ktorrent. its scheduler interface is a mess. | 07:13 |
| arghh2d2 | dtownhero: good for you, nobody asked you to care abou jack sh!t | 07:13 |
| dtownhero | Peaker: at least you're not being infected with virus' and the new Black screen of death. | 07:13 |
| lstarnes | Ascavasaion: you should probably join #mandriva and ask there | 07:14 |
| Peaker | dtownhero: I think its really awful that Ubuntu wastes resources on improving compiz, or shortening boot times, etc when many users have trouble getting sound to work consistently out-of-the-box | 07:14 |
| dtownhero | arghh2d2: please grow up. | 07:14 |
| Dr_Willis | Ascavasaion: it uses the 'rpm' system. and thats about all rember of it. | 07:14 |
| Ascavasaion | lstarnes: I did :) | 07:14 |
| darkely1024 | why does linux run so stable on old computers (im useing an ibm think pad that had a default OS of windows 2000)? | 07:14 |
| rethus | what is pB in front af a package wich displayed by aptitude? | 07:14 |
| Peaker | dtownhero: again, no need to compare to Windows/etc. I will stick with Ubuntu anyway | 07:14 |
| Ascavasaion | Dr_Willis: Okies, thank you. Sigh. | 07:14 |

| Dr_Willis | darkely1024: buying a new cutting edge laptop that jusst came out today..and expecting linux to run 100% on it.. can be a headach :) | 07:15 |
| lstarnes | darkely1024: ubottu | 07:15 |

| dtownhero | I'm talking to Peaker. I have asked him multiple times to stop. | 07:15 |
| isolat3dsh33p | Dr_Willis: at least it has a scheduler, I couldn't find the scheduler for transmission. Does it has a scheduler anyway? | 07:16 |
| jongbergs | llutz: ok, does this also update the grub? | 07:16 |
| Dr_Willis | isolat3dsh33p: proberly not. | 07:16 |
| soreau | Peaker: There's no reason why developers skilled in a certain area should stop doing what they do because some other component is not perfect | 07:16 |
| Peaker | dtownhero: not me.. | 07:16 |
| arghh2d2 | lmao | 07:16 |
| Dr_Willis | isolat3dsh33p: transmission is about as basic a torrent client as you can get. | 07:16 |
| arghh2d2 | deluge | 07:16 |

| lstarnes | isolat3dsh33p: rtorrent might be more basic than that | 07:17 |

| arghh2d2 | Peaker: pulse audio is relatively new and experimental\ | 07:17 |

| exit606 | ten80p> maybe the usb desnt support linux? | 07:17 |
| Dr_Willis | its hard to be an expert on 'audio' when the sound card makers come out with new stuff every 2 months and never release specs for linux devs to use. | 07:17 |
| arghh2d2 | <3 rtorrent | 07:17 |

| dtownhero | ten80p: I play tf2, wow, lfd2,etc on it with linux | 07:22 |

| xxtripxx | I have an img on a usb device that i need to mount | 07:22 |
| Dr_Willis | xxtripxx: thats the device name. not its mountpoint | 07:22 |

| darkely1024 | whats one of their names so ican chat with one | 07:22 |
| Dr_Willis | xxtripxx: so mount the device somewhere. to get to the img.. then mount the img via the loopback feature of the mount command. | 07:22 |

| bazhang | cntrlfrk, sounds like a corrupt iso or a bad burn | 07:48 |
| Madpilot | darksector, no harm done, lurking or not, we aren't always in-channel | 07:49 |
| bazhang | cntrlfrk, md5 the iso, reburn slowly, then do the disk integrity check | 07:49 |
| Kyran | isolat3dsh33p: No sir, any idea why it would've vanished? | 07:49 |

| darksector | Madpilot: hehe | 07:49 |
| darksector | merciless: that was mount -r to be correct | 07:49 |
| cntrlfrk | i verified cd, it checks out ok | 07:49 |
| bazhang | cntrlfrk, verified how | 07:49 |
| cntrlfrk | with option before install on ubuntu boot screen | 07:50 |
| Kyran | isolat3dsh33p: Also, attempting to navigate to the desktop in Nautilus crashes it, Although I can access it with the terminal | 07:50 |
| bazhang | cntrlfrk, done many installs and those steps usually eliminate such issues, try the alternate installer if you those don't yield success | 07:51 |
| cntrlfrk | what is alternate installer? | 07:51 |
| zen | #ubuntu-cn | 07:51 |
| bazhang | cntrlfrk, text-based install only | 07:51 |
| bazhang | !alternate | cntrlfrk | 07:51 |
| ubottu | cntrlfrk: The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the link on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal | 07:51 |
| Madpilot | cntrlfrk, it's the older style text based installer | 07:52 |
| Madpilot | not as user-friendly, but more powerful & w/ more install options | 07:52 |
| Roadkill193 | im trying to install ubuntu on an Eee PC from a USB harddrive is this possible or MUST I use a flash drive? | 07:52 |

| cntrlfrk | how big is it? | 07:53 |
| darksector | Roadkill193: iirc it requires a fat32 partition | 07:53 |

| Dr_Willis | cntrlfrk: ext3 or ext4 your call. :) | 07:54 |
| darksector | mneptok: logan ? lulz why ? | 07:54 |
| wade | i'm running Xubuntu, how can i enable the visual effects? | 07:54 |
| Dr_Willis | cntrlfrk: you can t use fat32/ntfs for linux drives, and ext2 is not worth using. | 07:54 |
| darksector | cntrlfrk: fat32 lol | 07:54 |
| Sacho | I don't think there's a windows module that supports reading ex4 | 07:54 |
| darksector | cntrlfrk: ext2 outdated | 07:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Sacho: i think thjats being worked on | 07:55 |
| mneptok | darksector: oh, wrong game. Hayden. | 07:55 |
| kevdog | any thoughts on ion netbooks? Anyone have any problems with ubuntu installation on these? | 07:55 |
| * mneptok beat that games soooooo long ago ... | 07:55 | |
| darksector | Sacho: IMO windows doesnt read journaline file system, but i may be wrong | 07:55 |
| Sacho | Dr_Willis: probably, but still a consideration, if you dual-switch a lot, and like to keep all your data in one place | 07:55 |
| George_E | Sacho, there are drivers for ext3 on Windows | 07:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Sacho: blasphmy! :) | 07:55 |
| Sacho | Yeah, I know :) | 07:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Sacho: thats what samba servers are for. :P | 07:56 |
| tonyyarusso | George_E: Actually they're just for ext2, but they work on ext3 of course, just without a journal. | 07:56 |
| George_E | Ya. | 07:56 |
| kevdog | I heard ext4 has problems with large files > 2GB. I've been warned to stay away | 07:56 |
| darksector | kevdog: what ! no ! | 07:56 |
| Dr_Willis | kevdog: never heard/noticed that | 07:56 |
| Dr_Willis | wiki page on ext4 dont mention that either | 07:57 |
| darksector | kevdog: 240 gigs files here | 07:57 |
| darksector | kevdog: a single archive too ! | 07:57 |
| kevdog | Heard some ubuntu developers chattering about this once -- they said don't use if mission critical | 07:57 |
| * centHOGG agree | 07:57 | |
| anonymoustroll | anyone have any good links for hopeless fsckered ubuntu boxes? | 07:57 |
| tonyyarusso | kevdog: I think most of the ext4 warning stuff you'll find is really old. I haven't had or heard of any problems with current incarnations. | 07:57 |
| Dr_Willis | anonymoustroll: depends on what the problem is with it | 07:58 |
| * Dr_Willis points out that at one time ext3 was 'experimental' also. :) | 07:58 | |
| kevdog | I'm not tryping to spread rumors, but hearing this on an ubuntu irc developers channel with a ext4 mentioned with a laugh has made me wonder -- heard this about 1 month ago | 07:58 |
| kevdog | maybe things have changed in the last month -- I have no idea! | 07:59 |
| anonymoustroll | latest synaptic update caused the window manager to restart every few seconds preventing me from doing anything except from a remote ssh terminal (it was an Ion based box with the Nvidia kernel mods) | 07:59 |
| Dr_Willis | having a power failure during a copy of a 100gb file..is always bad. :) | 07:59 |
| centHOGG | kevdog: here's a great way to kill time, resize a ext4 partition | 07:59 |
| kevdog | Ohhh -- I might actually like watching paint dry better than that! | 08:00 |
| wgrant | kevdog: There were approximately two reports of that bug. | 08:00 |
| kevdog | What was the exact bug? | 08:01 |
| wgrant | kevdog: Not sure. There was suspicion that it was bad RAM. | 08:01 |
| * centHOGG suggest reiserfs if you want to resize linux partitions | 08:01 | |

| Fede | I'm not using ubuntu, but I'm having a problem with gnome and I figured out I have nothing to lose by asking here. When I insert an SD card, the card is detected but not mounted automatically. I can mount it manually with gnome-mount. Why wouldn't it mount automatically? Any pointers? | 08:04 |
| Dr_Willis | Fede: the various 'services' that auto mount devices can vary from one disrto to another. ubuntu 9.10 did some changes to that area. | 08:05 |
| Dr_Willis | Fede: so its best to ask in your own disrto chgannel | 08:05 |
| Razahn | How big should a swap partition reasonably be? I just recently started dual booting Windows 7 and Ubuntu 9.10. My current swap partition is 20 gigs. | 08:05 |
| George_E | Mine is 2 gb | 08:06 |
| Dr_Willis | Razahn: 20gb is extreme | 08:06 |
| llutz | Razahn: if you want to use hibernation, it should be 1-2 x RAM. | 08:06 |
| darksector | Razahn: >= ram size | 08:06 |
| George_E | Ya. | 08:06 |
| talsemgeest | Razahn: Generally 1.5x your ram size | 08:06 |
| Madpilot | Razahn, twice the size of your RAM is the usual rule of thumb | 08:06 |
| cntrlfrk | if using opteron 170 proc should I use AMD 170 alternate install? or x86 alternate install? is alternate install same as text based installer? | 08:06 |
| Fede | Dr_Willis: I tried but no reply in the gnome channel of my distro. I'm hoping to find any similarities which could help | 08:06 |
| cntrlfrk | i mean AMD64 | 08:06 |
| chittoor | 20 wow! | 08:06 |
| Dr_Willis | Fede: it could be some bug in your disrto - check its forums | 08:07 |
| Razahn | thank you. I figured it was a little much, but I was up till 4 in the morning figuring out how to install both operating systems | 08:07 |
| darksector | Razahn: wut ?!?! thats the easiest thing to do | 08:07 |
| Fede | alright, thanks Dr_Willis | 08:07 |
| Razahn | first time for everything :) | 08:07 |
| lstarnes | chittoor: the amd64 version works for all 64-bit x86/IA-32 processors including intel's recent ones | 08:07 |
| llutz | Razahn: most desktop-users with actual hardware don't need any swap at all | 08:07 |
| frogzoo | disabling swap is a mistake | 08:08 |
| bashca | hi there please i can't enter to my box after installing kde 4 on ubuntu ?? | 08:08 |
| llutz | frogzoo: you always can add swap-files if needed | 08:08 |
| George_E | frogzoo, right. | 08:09 |
| Madpilot | frogzoo, if you have a reasonable amount of RAM and you don't suspend, swap isn't really required | 08:09 |
| Besogon | llutz: Does you forget about hibernate? | 08:09 |
| llutz | swap is a waste of partition-entries in 99% | 08:09 |
| frogzoo | Madpilot: yes tis | 08:09 |
| llutz | Besogon: thats the only reason swap-partitions are really needed | 08:09 |
| Razahn | As I was installing, the installer recommended using a swap partition, so I went with the safe route. Since I have 6 gigs of ram, 10ish gigs of swap should be sufficient? | 08:09 |
| Madpilot | frogzoo, I have 2GB of RAM here, no swap currently because my big HDD croaked, but when I did have a /swap on the big HDD, it was basically never used.... and the system isn't any slower now w/o it. | 08:10 |
| Dr_Willis | Razahn: proberly 3x what you need. :)unless you plan on using hibernate/suspend | 08:10 |
| bashca | hi there please i can't enter to my box after installing kde 4 on ubuntu ?? | 08:10 |
| frogzoo | Madpilot: couldn't be bothered looking for it, but I've seen where the kernel assumes swap exists | 08:11 |
| Besogon | llutz: So, I think size of swap partition should be like RAM | 08:11 |
| Razahn | I will learn eventually. I am so used to Windows doing everything for me :) | 08:11 |
| Dr_Willis | its always a good idea to have at least a little swap partition. | 08:11 |
| llutz | Besogon: if you plan to hibernate, yes. otherwise... no (imho) | 08:11 |
| Dr_Willis | If for noother reason then for the fact that many live-cd's see/use swap partitions. | 08:11 |
| George_E | frogzoo, where? | 08:11 |
| darksector | Razahn: window does what isnt' needed | 08:11 |
| frogzoo | Dr_Willis: for one thing, when it starts thrashing, you know you need more ram | 08:11 |
| frogzoo | George_E: that's just it, I came across it somewhere, maybe it's in the scheduler docs | 08:12 |
| llutz | if swap is needed on regular operation, you better should buy RAM | 08:12 |
| Razahn | I am starting to realize that. My system seems to run much smoother with ubuntu loaded | 08:12 |

| Dr_Willis | merciless: if windows says its 'bad' and wants to reformat it. its possible it is bad. | 08:17 |
| bashca | darksector: nope i can't even see what error i got i guess this problem on my video card after playing with compiz settings . | 08:17 |
| darksector | bashca: compiz doesn't come into picture in recovery mode | 08:18 |
| merciless | robbmunson; so no other way??? i mean without losing my data | 08:18 |
| Dr_Willis | merciless: if it has a windows filesystem on it. I would suggest letting windows try to 'fix' it. you could dd it to a file under linux as extra protection. | 08:18 |
| robbmunson | merciless: please note I am not the one who is helping you :) | 08:18 |
| merciless | Dr_Willis; so no other way??? i mean without losing my data | 08:18 |

| Dr_Willis | merciless: dd it to a file. and try to recover data from that dd image. | 08:19 |
| darksector | bashca: ok when loggin in at gui do this alt+ctrl+f1 and then login and then remove compiz | 08:19 |
| Dr_Willis | merciless: what does 'sudo fdisk -l' say about the device - what filesystem? | 08:19 |

| Dr_Willis | !dd | 08:19 |
| merciless | Dr_Willis; http://paste.ubuntu.com/335732/ | 08:19 |

| robbmunson | !info dd | 08:19 |
| ubottu | Package dd does not exist in karmic | 08:20 |

| darksector | Dr_Willis: is there a way to remove installed components using live cd ? | 08:23 |
| Dr_Willis | darksector: chroot in. and remove what you want via apt-get but im not sure what you want to remove | 08:23 |
| bashca | Dr_Willis: how do chroot please ??? | 08:24 |
| robbmunson | Dr_Willis: wouldnt darksector need to /mount first? (not trying to step on your toes) | 08:24 |
| darksector | Dr_Willis, not me bashca wants to remove compiz though, think you could guide him, i have to take off | 08:24 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest81118: you may need a ffmpeg with more codec support, installed via ppa repos, or source. | 08:24 |
| llutz | !chroot | bashca | 08:24 |
| ubottu | bashca: chroot is used to make programs believe that the directory they are running in is really the root directory. It can be used to stop programs accessing files outside of that directory, or for compiling 32bit applications in a 64bit environment (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot) | 08:24 |
| Dr_Willis | I doubt if removing compiz will fix anything. | 08:24 |
| soreau | It wont | 08:24 |
| Dr_Willis | if the person cant even get to the GDM or KDM login screen. theres some deeper issues | 08:24 |
| darksector | Dr_Willis: those blurred lines and stuff are problems of broken x, i assume because i had the same | 08:24 |
| Guest81118 | Dr_Willis, did someone took out mp3 encoding ??, meeh, I could easily convert to mp3 in previous Ubuntu distros | 08:24 |
| Guest81118 | :( | 08:24 |

| Archilles | youtube says Javascript is turned off, however in Preferences (using Firefox) javascript is ticked for enabled. What is wrong?? | 08:25 |
| Dr_Willis | darksector: then havge them install for example 'icewm' and see if they can get to the desktop with the icewm session menu item. that will remove compiz from the 'potential' problems list. :) | 08:25 |
| darksector | Dr_Willis: isn't icewm a whole dm? | 08:26 |

| winmisser | yes, specify the order in which the channels will appear, how many users in, etc, etc | 08:29 |

| xxtripxx | hello? | 09:10 |
| Dr_Willis | jonte: it may be a good idea to rephrase the question/information. Ive no idea what you mean by 'the screen is falling in sleep' | 09:11 |
| Dr_Willis | jonte: and black screens on boot up are indicative of driver/X config issues.. give details as to what you Do see exactly. Grub menu? GDM login? nothing at all. | 09:12 |
| Kud | Is there anyway to reinstall the default Ubuntu 9.10 login screen? I seem to have misplaced it...I was attempting to modify it via the guide here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=7576112&postcount=365 However, it seems as if all that did was reset everything back to a default theme(Human I believe) and I can't seem to get the default login theme back. I tried uninstall and reinstalling usplash and the ubuntu theme to no avail. | 09:12 |
| Kud | Any ideas? Google is leaving me dry on this one. | 09:12 |
| jonte | Dr_Willis: I also think so.... | 09:12 |
| daf_ | I'm trying to use pan but am not able to get a list of anything. | 09:12 |
| daf_ | Can anyone help me? | 09:12 |
| Dr_Willis | Kud: using 9.10 ? | 09:12 |
| merciless | lluz; but then i am not able to? | 09:13 |
| Kud | Dr_Willis: Yes | 09:13 |
| jonte | Dr_Willis: But before this problem i had other problem.... | 09:13 |
| daf_ | I've put in the nntp server info but every group I subscribe to is blank | 09:13 |
| Dr_Willis | Kud: theres a tool called 'epidermis' (not in the repos) that can install/change the gdm and other default themes. It can even download new ones. | 09:13 |
| xxtripxx | So I'm trying to run this command "mount -o loop /media/internal/debsmall.img /media/cf | 09:13 |
| xxtripxx | " but this is what i get http://img412.imageshack.us/img412/542/screenshot1do.png | 09:13 |
| llutz | merciless: my last idea is trying photorec to recover your data | 09:13 |
| Dr_Willis | xxtripxx: you did make the directory /media/cf befor hand? | 09:13 |
| Dr_Willis | http://img412.imageshack.us/img412/542/screenshot1do.png | 09:14 |
| xxtripxx | i dont believe it should be in the debsmall.img | 09:14 |
| Kud | Dr_Willis: Will that work with the new xserver GDM that 9.10 is using? From what I've read so far, the GDM is completely different on 9.10 than < 9.04 | 09:14 |
| Dr_Willis | xxtripxx: hmm? a mountpoint must exist befor you mount to it. | 09:14 |
| Dr_Willis | Kud: its made for the new one in 9.10 | 09:14 |
| Kud | Dr_Willis: Thank you, I will look into it. | 09:14 |
| xxtripxx | then i need to create a mount point to the img file | 09:14 |
| Dr_Willis | Kud: its a 9.10 only tool I think | 09:14 |
| merciless | lluz; it isn't in the repos | 09:15 |
| Dr_Willis | xxtripxx: yes you MUST have the mount directory existing befor tha command can work | 09:15 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | xxtripxx, you have to have a place to mount whatever you want to mount, before you mount. I suggest this command: sudo mkdir /media/mount | 09:15 |

| llutz | xxtripxx: using spaces in file-/dirnames need to escape them | 09:16 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | xxtripxx, then if you're mounting a iso use this command: sudo mount -t iso9660 /path/to/file.iso /media/mount | 09:16 |
| Dr_Willis | xxtripxx: when in doubt avoide spaces in filename/paths. | 09:16 |
| llutz | merciless: its in package testdisk | 09:16 |
| Dr_Willis | daf_: i used pan ages ago - You did point it to a proper newsgroup server? | 09:16 |
| daf_ | Dr_Willis yes | 09:17 |
| daf_ | I have a list of groups | 09:17 |
| merciless | lluz; i installed testdisk | 09:17 |
| daf_ | I choose a group and show headers and nothing | 09:17 |
| daf_ | Dr_Willis do you use some other client or just don't usenet? | 09:17 |
| Dr_Willis | daf_: so it connected to the server , you need to subscribe to some groups i recall and tell it to some how update/download headers | 09:17 |
| llutz | merciless: /usr/sbin/photorec | 09:17 |
| Dr_Willis | daf_: ive not used usenet in years. | 09:18 |
| Dr_Willis | My ISP dosent even have newsgroup servers any more i think | 09:18 |
| clueless2 | hello everyone! | 09:18 |
| daf_ | Dr_Willis: I'm doing all that but it just comes back empty | 09:18 |
| merciless | lluz; oh i am running it in the terminal and now how do i use it? | 09:18 |
| Dr_Willis | daf_: could be they are empty. Its hard to tell. try with some other newsgroup reader perhaps. | 09:19 |
| llutz | merciless: best read "man photorec" | 09:19 |
| clueless2 | does anyone know how to set the result or the output of the Terminal "text" screen in color mode b/c i can't see the output | 09:19 |
| daf_ | Dr_Willis: Suggestions? | 09:19 |
| Dr_Willis | daf_: i recall the reader often just getting 'new' posts' vs 'all avail' posts. | 09:19 |
| Dr_Willis | daf_: ive not used any in at least 4+ years | 09:19 |
| clueless2 | for example if I type in "today=sunday" -Enter | 09:19 |
| clueless2 | and then type in echo $today -enter | 09:19 |
| === homer is now known as Guest40263 | ||
| Dr_Willis | clueless2: you must include various ansi escape codes to get color in printed text. | 09:20 |
| clueless2 | then the result would be Sunday .... it does show on the screen but I can NOT view the result or the output | 09:20 |
| clueless2 | i need to change to a visible text color | 09:20 |
| merciless | lluz; ok i'll try thanks | 09:20 |
| clueless2 | dr_willis ..what do you mean ? | 09:20 |
| clueless2 | how ? | 09:20 |

| faqts | i cant find movie player in /usr/bin/ to select it as a media player to play streams from the net, and if i save the stream as a .pls file and then open it with movie player, it will play it but not show what song is playing. only the station. any help please? | 09:21 |
| Dr_Willis | clueless2: try the 'reset' command to reset the terminal back to default colors | 09:21 |

| prathap | what package i need to install for vboxfs ? | 09:22 |
| Platypus-Man | I'm having trouble browsing network shares... my desktop is running Ubuntu 9.04, and the laptop 9.10, they can both ping eachother just fine, if I go to Network on my Desktop PC I can find the Laptop, but not the other way round... the sharing services are installed on both machines. HAve tried using wireless and wired on the laptop, currently on the latter (although I still pinged with 100% wireless connection and no packet loss just | 09:22 |
| faqts | SpaceGhostC2C: do they still air that show? | 09:22 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Platypus-Man, what are you trying to use to connect? | 09:22 |
| OC1 | I cant update my ubuntu 9.1 | 09:22 |
| Dr_Willis | prathap: running ubuntu inside a vbox virtualmachine? You need to install the vbox guest addations. | 09:22 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | faqts, I'm not sure friend, let's keep it on topic. | 09:22 |
| clueless2 | Dr_Willis .. did you get it? | 09:23 |
| Platypus-Man | SpaceGhostC2C: smb is the only option I know of... | 09:23 |
| prathap | Dr_Willis, running xp as guest | 09:23 |
| clueless2 | i can't see the text result on the screen .. | 09:23 |
| Dr_Willis | clueless2: not really. | 09:23 |
| clueless2 | i mean I can type in CAL for example and I see the screen text | 09:23 |
| faqts | i cant find movie player in /usr/bin/ to select it as a media player to play streams from the net, and if i save the stream as a .pls file and then open it with movie player, it will play it but not show what song is playing. only the station. any help please? | 09:23 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Platypus-Man, have you done this? sudo apt-get install smbfs | 09:23 |
| Kud | Dr_Willis: Thanks for pointing me to the epidermis project. It has everything I need except for one thing: The ability to import my own themes. Looks as if it has a predetermined set of skins/themes/etc and no way to import your own unfortunately. This will be a simple temporary fix for my problem though, so I thank you once again. :) | 09:23 |
| clueless2 | but if I typed in anything that applies to a variable .. the result on the screen is NOT readable | 09:23 |
| Dr_Willis | clueless2: Hmm.. so " echo 'hello' " works? | 09:24 |
| Platypus-Man | strange, could swear I had installed everything I needed... let's hope it works | 09:24 |
| clueless2 | Dr_Willis .. for example (again ..) if u typed in today=sunday-Enter, then type in echo today-Enter, you should get a screen or a result on the screen that prints "Sunday" | 09:25 |
| prathap | Dr_Willis, running xp as guest need to share folder how can i ? | 09:25 |
| OC1 | I have ubuntu 9.1 but I cant update my system | 09:25 |

| al_ | can you kill a process by its name | 09:25 |
| clueless2 | hold on .. i'm in the wrong screen | 09:25 |
| OC1 | when I ping the server it reply | 09:25 |
| Dr_Willis | prathap: check the vbox docs - they tell ya how. You can use normal shares. or the special vbox 'share' feature | 09:25 |
| prathap | Dr_Willis, this is the error mount: unknown filesystem type 'vboxvfs' | 09:25 |
| clueless2 | Dr.Willis ..that works | 09:25 |

| Dr_Willis | prathap: i was thinkign it was 'vboxsf' for the type. | 09:26 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | OC1, hey just chill a minute put your question on one line and wait for someone to read and respond. We'll get to you, we promise. | 09:26 |
| clueless2 | Dr_Willis ... trying to do the variable | 09:26 |
| al_ | cn28h: ta | 09:26 |
| prathap | Dr_Willis, tried that also,still didnt worked | 09:26 |
| OC1 | ok | 09:26 |

| Dr_Willis | Hello World | 09:27 |
| Platypus-Man | SpaceGhostC2C: do I need to restart before it has any effect? | 09:27 |
| clueless2 | you should be able to get the word "Sunday" on the next line .. but i can't see the result | 09:27 |
| clueless2 | Space ..thanks | 09:27 |
| clueless2 | !enter | 09:27 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Platypus-Man, no sir. in addition, you could try sudo apt-get install samba | 09:28 |

| Dr_Willis | dont add the 'enter' stuff to the end.. just whats the actual commands you are using | 09:28 |
| RolaBlade | hi... how do I turn off gui boot up? | 09:28 |
| Dr_Willis | faqts: totem is in /usr/bin/totem | 09:28 |
| craig_ | how can i get ubuntu to mount a hdd without me needing to type in sudo password? the drive is listed on "Places" menu. but i cant access it without typing a password. | 09:28 |
| llutz | craig_: what filesystem? | 09:29 |
| Dr_Willis | craig_: try installing/running the ntfs-config command/tool if its a ntfs filesystem | 09:29 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | craig_ so you want it to be mounted when you click it, but not automatically mounted? | 09:29 |
| faqts | Dr_Willis: is that the same thing? i thought movie player and totem were 2 separate things. | 09:29 |
| Platypus-Man | SpaceGhostC2C: samba is the newest version, and still can't see my shares on the Laptop | 09:29 |
| craig_ | SpaceGhostC2C, auto would be best | 09:29 |
| craig_ | Dr_Willis, its ext4 | 09:29 |
| llutz | craig_: chmod/chown | 09:29 |
| Dr_Willis | faqts: movie player is just a 'fancy name' on the icon | 09:29 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | craig_, you'll want to edit your fstab. Send me a PM and I'll help you out with it. | 09:30 |
| llutz | craig_: add a fstab-entry to automount it | 09:30 |
| Dr_Willis | craig_: fstab entry and set the permissions propelry. on a sub dir for a user to access.. or on the whole mountpoint | 09:30 |
| llutz | craig_: UUID=1234....21 /media/where/you/want ext4 defaults 0 0 | 09:30 |

| faqts | Dr_Willis: it is supposed to show what song is playing in the tile bar but all it's showing is the station name | 09:32 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | llutz, I think you have the order wrong for the fstab entry. No worries. | 09:32 |
| === Guest40651 is now known as Midnighter | ||
| Dr_Willis | faqts: i never use totem. so no idea. | 09:32 |
| Dr_Willis | faqts: thers many other media players out there. | 09:33 |
| llutz | SpaceGhostC2C: you thing wrong | 09:33 |
| llutz | think* | 09:33 |
| faqts | Dr_Willis: i use totem because it's the only player that works with my multimedia buttons | 09:33 |
| Dr_Willis | faqts: you have tried mplayer, vlc, and all the others? | 09:33 |
| llutz | SpaceGhostC2C: man fstab shows you the field-order | 09:34 |
| Dr_Willis | for streams i tend to use 'streamtuner' :) | 09:34 |
| faqts | Dr_Willis: what are "all the others"? | 09:34 |
| Dr_Willis | faqts: depends on exactly what you are wanting to play. | 09:34 |
| Dr_Willis | some are better for video some are better for audio | 09:34 |
| faqts | net radio, Dr_Willis | 09:35 |
| Dr_Willis | for streams i tend to use 'streamtuner' :) | 09:35 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | llutz, my fstab is of a totally different flavour. I say we leave it at a agree to disagree. | 09:35 |
| Dr_Willis | and audacious I think | 09:35 |

| clueless2 | Dr_Willis .. how do verify that the Ubunto 9.10 that I'm using have all the Server functionalities installed? | 09:36 |
| al_ | is there anything I can use to monitor the output of rsync from a remote session if I get disconnected? I know there is screen, but not sure if I can run screen on the cutdown version of Linux on my NAS box???? | 09:36 |
| ^mNotIntelligent | hello everyone ! | 09:36 |
| Dr_Willis | clueless2: Huh? what do you even mean by 'all the server functionalities' ? you install what services you need. | 09:36 |
| ^mNotIntelligent | hi Dr_Willis , Pici | 09:37 |
| Platypus-Man | SpaceGhostC2C: now I can't find my Laptop from my Desktop either... :/ | 09:37 |
| clueless2 | Dr_Willis .. i want to set up my Ubunto 9.10 as a server ... | 09:37 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | llutz: I'm saying that the way I have my fstab isn't the same as you put it and that as long as it works it doesn't matter much. | 09:37 |
| Dr_Willis | clueless2: so you still 'install what services you need' | 09:37 |
| clueless2 | i want the Ubunto 9.10 to be a server type .. | 09:37 |
| bigmack83 | im trying to help a friend with an issue on his computer. is there an app that lets me see his desktop in a window on my desktop.? | 09:37 |
| clueless2 | like webserver, ftpserver, file server ..etc. | 09:38 |
| bigmack83 | i dont necessarily need control, just want to view it | 09:38 |
| ^mNotIntelligent | bigmack83, i guess you can use some screen sharing tools...there are quite a lot... | 09:38 |
| clueless2 | mostly everything .. how do I check to see if those are installed? | 09:38 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | clueless2, you have everything you need already in the repositories. | 09:38 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | #grub | 09:38 |
| Dr_Willis | clearscreen1: and for the 3rd time.. You install what services you need.... | 09:38 |
| moymoy | bigmack83: ubuntu comes with vinagre | 09:38 |
| Dr_Willis | clearscreen1: theres diffent 'servers' that you can install to provide those services | 09:38 |
| chiques | clueless2, That's too broad of a question. | 09:38 |
| clueless2 | spaceghost ...where do I check in the "respositories" | 09:38 |
| Dr_Willis | oops wrong nick :) | 09:38 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | clueless2, If you'd like to have a headless server, meaning no gui to speak of then you can remove all the gui programs and ubuntu-desktop or reinstall and use the ubuntu server edition cd. | 09:39 |
| Dr_Willis | clueless2: : theres diffent 'servers' that you can install to provide those services | 09:39 |
| Flannel | clueless2: Do you have a GUI on this server? or just text? | 09:39 |

| SpaceGhostC2C | clueless2, would you like this server to have a GUI, or none at all? | 09:40 |
| ^mNotIntelligent | bigmack83, use vinagre...comes as default remote desktop viewer in ubuntu | 09:40 |
| ^mNotIntelligent | bigmack83, and its pretty good... | 09:40 |
| bigmack83 | ok thx | 09:40 |
| al_ | bigmack83: ahh, they might have a linux version...not sure | 09:40 |
| Flannel | clueless2: Alright, you can peruse synaptic (system > admin > synaptic package manager) to see all of the packages (not services) you can install. If you want a shorter version of just some common tasks for your server, if you go to a terminal, and type 'sudo tasksel' you'll get some to choose from | 09:40 |
| clueless2 | spaceGhost ... yes .. GUI ... in this case; i have it right? | 09:40 |
| Flannel | clueless2: but really, you can pretty much install *any* kind of service you could think of | 09:40 |

| clueless2 | i've already installed (successfully) SSH ... and still reading on how to use it.. SSH is like an FTP ..sort of thing right? | 09:47 |
| ^mNotIntelligent | mauri, that means initially your system is not able to either detect your device or due to some reason not able to load the proper driver and when the system is up its able to detect the device properly and is able to load the required drivers... | 09:47 |
| Dr_Willis | mauri: you could compare the modules loaded when it boots vs whtn its working and make the system auto load the proper modules at boot | 09:47 |
| llutz | clueless2: filetransfer is only one tiny aspect of ssh | 09:48 |
| Dr_Willis | clueless2: ssh makes ftp obsolete. | 09:48 |

| lstarnes | clueless2: ssh is a remote login/administration protocol | 09:48 |
| Dr_Willis | clueless2: use ssh, and forget about ftp :) | 09:48 |
| lstarnes | clueless2: it works somewhat like a command line, but can do more | 09:48 |

| ^mNotIntelligent | mauri, go through the last link...thats i guess the same what you are facing....did you check that | 10:48 |
| Dr_Willis | clueless2: install 'xming' on the windows box. and you can 'connect' to the linux bx and run linux apps and have them appear on the windows box also. | 10:48 |

| clueless2 | DrWillis .. PUTTY ..using PUTTY .right now | 10:49 |
| Dr_Willis | clueless2: so? | 10:49 |
| mauri | ^mNotIntelligent: there are only lp and rtc modules.....nothing about my pendrive | 10:49 |
| clueless2 | DrWillis ..so Xming will allow me to use the use the upload/download capabilityh? | 10:49 |
| Dr_Willis | clueless2: you can install xming, and enable xforwarding in putty.. then if ya ran 'gnome-terminal' it would run and display on the windows box | 10:50 |
| Dr_Willis | clueless2: ssh/scp can transfer files. | 10:50 |
| clueless2 | Dr_willis... i'm trying to avoid using the "easiest way" drag and drop .. i want to be able to log on the ssh and be able to upload/download file .. | 10:50 |
| ^mNotIntelligent | mauri, the last link...you just have to add your module in /etc/module file....to make sure it gets loaded on boot...thats it | 10:50 |
| Dr_Willis | clueless2: then you will need a ssh server on the windows box. | 10:50 |
| clueless2 | drwillis .. i see | 10:50 |
| Dr_Willis | clueless2: or read the putty docs.. you are using putty to get a SHELL on the linux box. not transfer files. | 10:51 |
| mauri | ^mNotIntelligent: ok but i dont now thich is the right module to load | 10:51 |
| clueless2 | Dr_willis .. i see | 10:51 |
| clueless2 | i see.. so PUTTY is just to access the Linux box only | 10:52 |
| clueless2 | i see | 10:52 |

| darFlo | hi there | 11:01 |
| === Guest71288 is now known as TMKCodes | ||
| Dr_Willis | !info swapspace | 11:01 |

| TMKCodes | Hey.. I just installed Xubuntu 9.10 to aspire one, but having two panels on this 10" screen is too much and i can't remove the other panel. How do i remove it? | 11:01 |
| darFlo | packages.ubuntu.com seems to be down? | 11:01 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm.. thats somthing new.. wonder why one wouldent just use a normal swap partition. | 11:01 |
| BlouBlou | Elephantman-: hello | 11:01 |
| MindVirus | Dr_Willis: It uses filesystem space to swap when it's needed and frees it up when it doesn't. | 11:01 |
| Elephantman- | got a small problem trying to add a screen resolution with xrandr. I've read the docs & co, seems like newmode and addmode work, but when I swap the screen resolution to the correct one, the config interface just resets to the previous value | 11:01 |
| MindVirus | Dr_Willis: Because I am using an SSD and they have low max write count. | 11:02 |
| Dr_Willis | MindVirus: sounds like that would cause a lot of lag/issues. | 11:02 |
| MindVirus | Dr_Willis: Memory usage shouldn't be this high anyways. | 11:02 |
| Dr_Willis | but. by changeing the swapspace.. seems that would make the writes more.... | 11:02 |
| Dr_Willis | Never used it.. so cant tell if thats the issue or not. | 11:02 |
| darFlo | are there any infos when I can expect to reach packages.ubuntu.com again? | 11:03 |
| MindVirus | Dr_Willis: 1GB should be enough to swap extremely rarely. | 11:03 |
| Dr_Willis | MindVirus: unless somthing crashed and grabs a lot of ram. but how to prove it one way or another.. is the question | 11:03 |
| Dr_Willis | does it have the issue from a new clean reboot.. is one test i guess. | 11:03 |
| Dr_Willis | vs being slower as the system runs for a longer time | 11:04 |
| MindVirus | Dr_Willis: So ~300MB is cached. | 11:04 |
| Travis1 | ok I've been told to come here with my issue. I loaded Karmic 64bit and my graphics driver isn't working. Tried commenting out the "vesa" line of my xorg.conf file since I'm running a radeon 3650 vid card. Rebooted. got blank screen loading X. It can't be a mtrr issue as thought of on my previous 32bit installation since 64bit recognises all 4g of my RAM. Thoughts anyone? | 11:04 |
| MindVirus | Dr_Willis: and I was wrong by an order of magnitude for the swap; it's actually 250/500MB swap. | 11:04 |
| Dr_Willis | thats more swap then what my fileserver has. :) | 11:05 |
| MindVirus | Dr_Willis: I shouldn't need swap, dude. :( | 11:05 |
| Dr_Willis | disable it then.. and see. | 11:05 |
| MindVirus | Dr_Willis: I'm saying that memory usage should be lower. | 11:06 |
| MindVirus | Can I do anything about it? | 11:06 |
| Dr_Willis | and im saying that somthing could have crashed and sucked down the ram.. | 11:06 |
| Dr_Willis | or leaks in varioys programs. | 11:06 |
| Dr_Willis | theres proberly ways to get linux to free up the cache. but those are proberly just a band aid around the actual programs that are missbehaving | 11:07 |
| MindVirus | Dr_Willis: How can I fix that? | 11:07 |
| ibuclaw | Ersoy, still here? | 11:07 |
| Ersoy | yes i am here | 11:07 |
| Dr_Willis | see what top says is using all the ram (or ntop) | 11:07 |

| Dr_Willis | happylol: compare the output of 'ls -ld /var/whatever' befor/after doing the chmod changes | 11:22 |
| karioke | I ran the .iso I cerated on virtualbox-ose | 11:22 |
| karioke | *created | 11:23 |

| happylol | Dr_Willis: drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2009-12-06 11:30 /var/images | 11:23 |
| Dr_Willis | happylol: if they change then the commands are 'working' - NOW that might not be the fix for what you want to do with what you are trying to do | 11:23 |
| karioke | and I reach the command line | 11:23 |
| Dr_Willis | happylol: now try your chmod commands and try the ls command again | 11:23 |
| happylol | yes, they are changing | 11:23 |
| Sacho | happylol: those look like changed permissions :P | 11:23 |

| dAlfa89_ | Dr_Willis: And I'm supposed to use that how? o: | 11:37 |
| Ersoy | ok | 11:37 |
| Dr_Willis | dAlfa89_: it lets you change the various gdm and other themes. | 11:37 |
| Dr_Willis | dAlfa89_: or you could try purgeing the gdm packages then reinstlling them. | 11:37 |
| bornsleepy | can some one please explain to me what is exactly " single partion Dual Booting, | 11:38 |
| Dr_Willis | dAlfa89_: dependingon how you broke the gdm theme | 11:38 |

| jensm1 | sorry Dissconected.. was there anyone who were willing to help kubuntu intsall disk prepare? | 11:40 |
| Dr_Willis | dAlfa89_: installed how? You could stop the gdm service at the console and login and use startx i guess. and try to fix it from the desktop. But the only gdm tweaking ive done in 9.1o is with epidermis, or by altering xsplash images. | 11:40 |
| Ersoy | ibuclaw, output? dmesg.before and diff dmesg.before dmesg.after ? | 11:40 |
| Ersoy | sorry i dont understand | 11:40 |

| ibuclaw | Ersoy, did: "diff dmesg.before dmesg.after" output anything into the console screen? | 11:41 |
| dAlfa89_ | Dr_Willis: Ah, 9.04 (: I used the "Add" button on the GDM themes list \: | 11:41 |
| Dr_Willis | cumulus007: thats proberly not a good idea. you could go to their server and download the .rpms i guess and convert them | 11:41 |
| newuser1 | Hey everyone , need some help, while i m on live cd i see my partitions this way.. http://www.imgx.org/pfiles/20237/Screenshot.png | 11:41 |
| newuser1 | which says my linux specified partition is 128gigs. | 11:42 |
| Dr_Willis | dAlfa89_: No idea on that then. Ive never had a gdm theme break on 9.04 - I always set that list to 'random' that way it picked different ones. | 11:42 |
| newuser1 | while m on windows it shows 29gigs which i had made earlier.. http://www.imgx.org/files/52674_sk9aw/drives.png | 11:42 |
| cumulus007 | Dr_Willis: the only problem is there are a lot of rpms in that folder and downloading them one by one is not a good idea | 11:42 |
| Dr_Willis | dAlfa89_: so go to the console, stop gdm, login , use 'startx' then select a different theme. | 11:42 |
| Ersoy | ibuclaw, No, nothing | 11:42 |
| newuser1 | alright. i m messing arnd. | 11:42 |
| Dr_Willis | cumulus007: thats what gui ftp clients are for.. or wget.. good luck getting ANY of them to acktually work | 11:42 |

| shrikant | how i can select multiple packages and install them | 11:44 |
| Dr_Willis | MFawzy: clearify what you mean by 'SU' what are you suing exactly? | 11:44 |
| jensm1 | Newuser1: Write here so all can see then more ppl can help, I try, erase and use entire disk now | 11:44 |
| frogzoo | MFawzy: chances are they failed fsck & been remounted read only | 11:44 |

| newuser1 | k . | 11:44 |
| Dr_Willis | home_: 'sudo service gdm stop | 11:44 |
| Dr_Willis | home_: should stop it.. unless theres some weird lock file hanging about. | 11:44 |
| shrikant | ok thanks | 11:45 |

| home_ | Dr_Willis: Well there WAS, seems it has disappeared, luckily | 11:45 |
| MFawzy | I guess | 11:45 |
| Ersoy | ibuclaw, i can use my camera on 9.04 and debian lenny | 11:46 |
| Dr_Willis | MFawzy: su ing to root is not enabled on ubuntu. ubuntu uses sudo | 11:46 |
| Dr_Willis | MFawzy: if you trust that script you could run it with sudo i guess... | 11:46 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Dr_Willis, can you not just sudo su to get root? | 11:46 |
| home_ | Dr_Willis: "error in locking authority file /home/home/.Xauthority" | 11:46 |
| MFawzy | it is suing to root ! however when I enter the permisions tab root group doesn't have permisons to create files | 11:46 |
| Dr_Willis | SpaceGhostC2C: sudo su is bad.. :) | 11:47 |
| jensm1 | Newuser1: so what errors do u get? | 11:47 |
| MFawzy | is this normal ? | 11:47 |
| Dr_Willis | SpaceGhostC2C: use 'sudo -s' or 'sudo -i' | 11:47 |
| grawity | SpaceGhostC2C: You can (though sudo -s or sudo -i is much better) -- the problem is that the script doesn't do that. | 11:47 |
| ru83n | join #web | 11:47 |
| Dr_Willis | home_: try deleting that .Xauth* file perhaps? startx should make that file as needed I think | 11:47 |
| MFawzy | I get "permission denied" ! | 11:47 |

| Dr_Willis | MFawzy: what is this badly done script for anyway? | 11:48 |
| ManDay | Didn't gnome have some floating panel (not docked to edge) sort of? | 11:48 |
| Dr_Willis | SpaceGhostC2C: theres a few urls that detal it. basically its about enviroment settings | 11:48 |
| Dr_Willis | SpaceGhostC2C: sudo su is 'redundant' :) | 11:48 |
| Dr_Willis | and dosent set up the enviroment properly | 11:49 |
| ManDay | Dr_Willis, sudo su is perfecty fine | 11:49 |
| ManDay | (sudo su -) | 11:49 |
| jensm1 | newuser1: dont know | 11:49 |

| ibuclaw | Ersoy, if: ls -l /dev/raw1394 | 11:49 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Dr_Willis, I'll look into the differences. I've used it for quite some time now, and I'll look into the other options. | 11:50 |
| Dr_Willis | 'sudo su' is defainatly one of those things that can cause odd issues | 11:50 |
| Dr_Willis | !info sux | 11:50 |

| home_ | Dr_Willis: Nope, still failing to create/lock it, it no longer exists \: | 11:51 |
| Ersoy | brw? | 11:51 |
| ibuclaw | Ersoy, then you should be OK on the Linux detection end - and may want to look into if it is Kino that is pointing to the wrong device. | 11:51 |
| Dr_Willis | home_: thats weird. this is from a simple 'startx' command ? | 11:51 |
| home_ | Dr_Willis: Yep, does the same if I sudo it | 11:51 |
| Dr_Willis | home_: You did a 'sudo startx' ? icky. | 11:52 |
| ibuclaw | Ersoy, in Kino, go to Edit -> Preferences | 11:52 |
| home_ | Dr_Willis: I know, slap me, I was just checking (: | 11:52 |
| Dr_Willis | home_: i hope that dident change any weird file permissions | 11:52 |
| ibuclaw | Ersoy, then check under the "IEEE 1394" tab what the settings are | 11:52 |
| Ersoy | ibuclaw, nothing | 11:52 |
| ibuclaw | Ersoy, and clicking on the dropdown shows nothing too? | 11:53 |
| home_ | Dr_Willis: I doubt it did, it's supposed to be a file in my home directory after all | 11:53 |
| Ersoy | yes, nothing | 11:53 |
| Dr_Willis | home_: you could try the 'rescue/revcovery mode - that way gdm dosetn even get tried to start. | 11:53 |
| Dr_Willis | home_: hopefully its not owned by root now. :) | 11:53 |
| Dr_Willis | home_: as a test. you could make a new user. and see if they can 'startx' | 11:53 |
| home_ | Dr_Willis: Will do that now | 11:53 |
| Dr_Willis | home_: on 9.04 i BELIVE the gnome theme setting is in /etc/gdm/gdm.conf Or some where with that name. | 11:54 |
| Dr_Willis | home_: you could edit that file by hand. | 11:54 |
| ManDay | Q: Screenlets or Desklets? | 11:54 |
| ManDay | (Which one do you use - if any?) | 11:55 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: i find both lacking. | 11:55 |
| ManDay | So what do you suggest, Willis? | 11:55 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: depends on what you really need. | 11:55 |
| devrim | hello, my ubuntu 9.10 is really slowly when its startup. 9.04 was much faster. what can i do | 11:55 |
| home_ | Dr_Willis: That's what I did a few minutes ago, to no avail: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=870982 | 11:55 |
| Dr_Willis | google also has gizmos and so does opera. | 11:55 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ManDay: I suggest applets. | 11:55 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ManDay, or of the choices you provided, Screenlets | 11:55 |
| ManDay | Something that's better than the freaking gnome-panel, willis | 11:56 |
| ManDay | Because the gnome-panel becomes more of a PITA every day | 11:56 |
| ManDay | And is very limited at the same time. | 11:56 |
| ManDay | Applets is it also a desktop widgeds package? | 11:56 |
| Dr_Willis | if you want a panel replacement try 'docky' (it has ppa repos) or some of the other docks | 11:56 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | !enter | ManDay | 11:57 |
| ubottu | ManDay: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 11:57 |
| Dr_Willis | You are proberly not going to find desklets/screenlets to totally replace the panels. | 11:57 |
| Dr_Willis | I perfer the panel to most alternatives.. I find these Docks more of a PITA then they are worth. | 11:57 |
| ibuclaw | Ersoy, see if the command: dvgrab | 11:57 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ManDay, if you want a dock I like Cairo-dock it's in the repositories. | 11:57 |
| ManDay | Is there any way, by the way, to get totally rid of gnome but KEEP compiz? | 11:57 |
| ibuclaw | Ersoy, gives any indication | 11:57 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Dr_Willis, I actually have that. | 11:57 |
| Ersoy | ibuclaw, dvgrab: command not found | 11:58 |
| devrim | hello, my ubuntu 9.10 is really slowly when its startup. 9.04 was much faster. what can i do | 11:58 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: compiz is a window manager.. you run it instead of metacity but its designed to work with the gnome window decorators.. so whats the point. :) unless you want to use emerald. | 11:58 |
| Dr_Willis | SpaceGhostC2C: i perfer 'docky' | 11:58 |
| devrim | its take more then 2 min | 11:58 |
| ubuntu-user | What should i do to use the internet from ubuntu 9.10 | 11:59 |

| home_ | Dr_Willis: New user still can't startx, times out trying to lock .Xauthority | 11:59 |
| Ersoy | ibuclaw, The program 'dvgrab' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: | 11:59 |
| Ersoy | sudo apt-get install dvgrab | 11:59 |
| Ersoy | dvgrab: command not found | 11:59 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: dozens of similer things. | 11:59 |
| Dr_Willis | home_: that IS weird | 11:59 |
| home_ | Dr_Willis: It is, I shall henceforth herald GDM theming as the Devil's work. | 12:00 |
| Dr_Willis | home_: as a test make a .xinitrc that has the line 'xterm' in it. and see if it starts up X with just a terminal window | 12:00 |
| Dr_Willis | home_: i dont see how its gdm causeing the issue at all | 12:00 |
| home_ | Dr_Willis: I don't see how it's anything else, nothing else has been changed | 12:00 |
| Dr_Willis | home_: You could install wdm, or kdm. or other alterantives | 12:01 |
| ManDay | SpaceGhostC2C, what kindof "applets" were you talking about? | 12:01 |
| Dr_Willis | home_: using startx bypasses gdm totally | 12:01 |
| ManDay | Got a link? | 12:01 |
| smknight | hmm, i attached an external display to my x60, everytime i wanna change something with the display tool gnome freezes and i have to hard reboot | 12:02 |
| Dr_Willis | home_: you could (hard core and may break things) 'sudo apt-get purge gdm' and 'sudo apt-get install gdm' | 12:02 |
| smknight | ubuntu 9.10, gma 950 | 12:02 |
| smknight | any ideas? | 12:02 |
| Dr_Willis | home_: or try ti set it up to use 'xdm' 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xdm' will let you later select gdm or xdm. | 12:03 |

| slax | hello | 12:15 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ManDay, I actually got rid of everything but the main menu part and then told it not to expand and then told it to autohide to the top of the screen, then I installed cairo-dock | 12:16 |
| Dr_Willis | aguitel: i belive mencoder or ffmpeg can do that. or front ends like winff, avidemux | 12:16 |
| ManDay | SpaceGhostC2C, dunno, cairodock seems a little overfancy to me | 12:16 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: try 'docky' then - or the gnome-do 'docky' theme. but docky is now spitting off from gnome-do | 12:17 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ManDay, the dock doesn't matter, I just don't use desktop icons. My wallpaper is a clock | 12:17 |
| aguitel | Dr_Willis, thanks ,i will try | 12:17 |
| ibuclaw | Ersoy, or try running 'kino' in the terminal and paste what debug output is printed. | 12:17 |
| Dr_Willis | Inever see my wallpaper.. i keep the apps maxamized. :) | 12:17 |
| ManDay | SpaceGhostC2C, my issue with gnome-panel was mostly that it doesnt work when used vertically (window list messes up etc.) | 12:17 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Dr_Willis, how can it branch? docky gets some of it's hutzpah from gnome-do | 12:18 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ManDay, fair, but I'd not remove it entirely. Just my $0.02 | 12:18 |
| Dr_Willis | SpaceGhostC2C: docky is now a stand alone app with its own ppa. Theres some ionfo on iot at the docky homepage | 12:18 |

| s3r3n1t7 | SpaceGhostC2C, it can even select things if typing a 4 would have normally selected those | 12:44 |
| s3r3n1t7 | makes me feel haunted ... | 12:45 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | s3r3n1t7, And this doesn't happen in other OS's? | 12:45 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | s3r3n1t7, sorry if I seem to be asking you questions redundantly. I'm trying to find where your issue lies. | 12:45 |
| s3r3n1t7 | SpaceGhostC2C, well the only other OS i have is Windows, and it works just fine in there ... hence i'm still stuck coding in there .... and questions are just fine, i'll answer them as good as i can | 12:46 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Dr_Willis, do you have any clues about s3r3n1t7's problem? | 12:46 |
| s3r3n1t7 | SpaceGhostC2C, i have tried previous versions as well, the same happens there as well. | 12:47 |
| Dr_Willis | not been paying attention. but thers been others with 9.10 usb device issues.. or his pc is haunted | 12:47 |
| Chesnut | Is it possible to stop those fancy window effects on certain applications windows? | 12:47 |
| s3r3n1t7 | tempted to make it haunted .... but that doesn't much solve the issue ... | 12:47 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Chesnut, yes look at the compizconfig-settings-manager | 12:48 |
| Chesnut | I do not have compiz, methinks. | 12:48 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | s3r3n1t7, I'm going with haunted | 12:48 |

| s3r3n1t7 | SpaceGhostC2C, you will have to excuse me, i'm in a funny and happy mood ... | 12:50 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | s3r3n1t7, the only god I know starts with G and ends in oogle. It seems that Google is being fussy. Do you have your keyboard model? | 12:51 |
| s3r3n1t7 | SpaceGhostC2C, G15, first generation (the one with blue lights) | 12:51 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | s3r3n1t7, I for one make mine put on sexy underwear. | 12:51 |
| s3r3n1t7 | SpaceGhostC2C, wish i could make mine do it ... but it somehow keeps falling right through it, it just doesn't stick | 12:52 |
| Dr_Willis | My logitech G15 keyboard with the lcd - works fine for me last i was using it on 9.10 | 12:52 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | s3r3n1t7, any more of this and we'll be getting rather dirty. | 12:52 |
| Dr_Willis | i even used the lcd for clocks and stuff :) | 12:52 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | s3r3n1t7, I'm saving my pennies for the optimus keyboard thingy. With all the shiny. | 12:53 |

| SpaceGhostC2C | paschu, you'll need to be a lot more specific. Which icons are you referring to? | 12:55 |
| paschu | SpaceGhostC2C, Icons for folders | 12:55 |
| s3r3n1t7 | SpaceGhostC2C, haven't looked at those, i'm very happy with my G15 (which works fine in windows btw) | 12:56 |

| mefiX | hey guys ;) i have 3 minor kernel releases in my /boot (2.6.32-[14-16]) which kinda messes up grub, how can i clean up that the ubuntu-way? (i am coming from archlinux originally) | 12:58 |
| paschu | Where can i find the default icons for the shortcuts on my desktop? | 12:58 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Just install and resize your windows partition if you need to put it on the same drive. | 12:58 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | paschu: try /usr/share/pixmaps | 12:59 |
| Dr_Willis | Feyd: i would suggest using windows to resize yur windwos install. and leave a section of the HD unallocated. then boot the ubuntu cd and start the ubuntu installer | 12:59 |
| Feyd | ubuntu installtion knows how to do that with out destryoing any data? | 12:59 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | mefiX, you can try sudo apt-get remove linux-kernel-headers-blahblah | 12:59 |
| Dr_Willis | Feyd: it CAN - but the windows resize tool is faster i find. by like 5x | 13:00 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Feyd, you can do it if you shrink your windows partition. It won't hurt your data. But as always, backup first. (I've never backed up) | 13:00 |

| SpaceGhostC2C | mimis: are you behind a router? | 13:03 |
| mimis | SpaceGhostC2C: yes | 13:04 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | wookienz, are you the system admin? If so, install one. | 13:04 |

| dAlfa89_ | Dr_Willis: I'm back, unfortunately. I tried purging GDM and ubuntu-desktop and reinstalling to no avail, I don't know what's wrong, I'm stuck with KDE now ): | 13:04 |
| grawity | wookienz: Then cron probably defaults to storing the message manually. | 13:05 |
| Dr_Willis | dAlfa89_: You can login to gnome from the KDM login manager? or does gnome fail to start if you try? | 13:06 |
| grawity | wookienz: Anyway, if you have absolutely no mail set up, redirect the output to file - I guess you're familiar with bash's ">& file.log", add it to crontab. | 13:06 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | wookienz, why don't you just output all the info into a file seperated by date? | 13:06 |

| wookienz | grawity: no im not familar but ill have a look at it, great idea. | 13:07 |
| grawity | wookienz: Eh, I meant "> file.log" | 13:07 |
| dAlfa89_ | Dr_Willis: It registers that my login is correct, just drops back to KDM | 13:07 |
| grawity | wookienz: > redirects output to a file; >& redirects error messages too. | 13:08 |
| wookienz | cool! | 13:08 |
| grawity | wookienz: So just put ">& ~/myscript.log" to the end of your crontab entry. | 13:08 |
| dinosaurvskitten | I usually use cron for recurring things, but is there something more suited for one-time things? Say I want something to be run at 23:45 only today... | 13:08 |
| jrib | dinosaurvskitten: at | 13:08 |
| grawity | dinosaurvskitten: 'at' | 13:08 |
| g9g | that means the hdd are breaked? Can I make something to recover my hard drive without lose anything? what should I do ? | 13:08 |
| Dr_Willis | dAlfa89_: try the failsafe/terminal session and see if you can run 'gnome-session - look for error messages | 13:08 |
| dinosaurvskitten | jrib / grawity: thanks | 13:08 |
| dAlfa89_ | Dr_Willis: Failsafe fails, funnily enough, I'll be right back | 13:09 |

| ZORG2 | !! | 13:12 |
| wookienz | grawity: not with the new appended log bit. | 13:12 |
| grawity | allister: "useradd" probably hasn't created the homedir. | 13:12 |
| jenda | One a related note - what's likely to be the reason for any nautilus windows to grey out to "not responding" after nearly any activity in them (e.g., I open my home folder, double click a subfolder, but when I try a third, or to delete a file) | 13:12 |
| MikeChelen | allister: ubuntu-desktop should install gnome | 13:13 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ManDay, I don't use the wifi-applet. It's rather buggy. | 13:13 |
| jenda | jrib: if that's a command, then "start: unknown job: nautilus" | 13:13 |
| Dr_Willis | dAlfa89_: well ya got a clue as to whats failing it seems | 13:13 |
| paschu | how to install conky??? | 13:13 |

| ManDay | ok thanks. SpaceGhostC2C any idea how i can make the default-background-plane smaller? | 13:13 |
| Dr_Willis | paschu: or use the pacakge manager guis | 13:13 |
| allister | thats correct. when i restart the server after that i see the login screen but cant login. Which command should i use to create a home dir then instead of only useradd | 13:13 |

| KEFIR | I need to give 777 permitions to some directories but it seems I do it wrong | 13:23 |
| llutz | wookienz: ldap | 13:23 |
| bhuvi | i removed some of the softwares from it,but the system->administration->services menu as in previous versions of ubuntu are missing where to find it | 13:24 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | !info ldap | wookienz | 13:24 |
| ubottu | wookienz: Package ldap does not exist in karmic | 13:24 |
| VCoolio | paschu: http://conky.linux-hardcore.com/ and http://conky.sourceforge.net/docs.html should get you going | 13:24 |
| portn0k | KEFIR: what command are you issuing | 13:24 |
| MikeChelen | bhuvi: it's called "startup applications" in 9.10 | 13:24 |
| paschu | I've read the documentation from the conky homepage but i still dont know what to do | 13:24 |
| KEFIR | sudo chmod 777 directory | 13:24 |
| MikeChelen | !ldap | 13:24 |
| ubottu | LDAP is the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol. For more information, installation instructions and getting clients to authenticate via LDAP see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenLDAPServer | 13:24 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | !ldap | wookienz | 13:24 |
| ubottu | wookienz: please see above | 13:24 |
| KEFIR | but not shure if I need to write directory/* | 13:25 |
| wookienz | cheers. | 13:25 |
| portn0k | perhaps it needs to be reclusive? try adding the -R flag | 13:25 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | paschu, you have conky installed. | 13:25 |
| KEFIR | thanks | 13:25 |
| KEFIR | a lot | 13:25 |
| VCoolio | paschu: for transparancy add this to your conky config: own_window_transparent yes | 13:25 |
| khensthoth | bhuvi: And have a look at a software called Boot Up Manager (sudo apt-get install bum) | 13:25 |
| Dr_Willis | paschu: trheres no way you read the docs.. i spent weeks reading/learning all about conky and how to configure it | 13:25 |
| Dr_Willis | paschu: you make a conky config .conkyrc that does what you want. and run conky. theres examples all over the homepage/internet | 13:26 |
| aldur | guys I acidently removed the sound icon from the top nav bar and now my screen flasshs for 2 minutes then stops but no menus work now y ideas how to manually add the sound widget | 13:26 |
| paschu | VCoolio, Where is the config? | 13:26 |
| bhuvi | but there was a system->preferences->sessions in 9.04 and startup applications resemble similar to that | 13:26 |
| Dr_Willis | paschu: my own are at -> http://drop.io/dr_willis | 13:26 |
| Dr_Willis | paschu: make one in your home directory | 13:26 |
| raven_ | which command opens a new-mail-window when evolution already is started? | 13:27 |
| VCoolio | paschu: did you do anything with conky yet? by default conky uses it's own config; you can create a default ~/.conkyrc with this command: "conky -C > ~/.conkyrc" | 13:27 |
| scriptwarlock | conky doesnt autostart even it is added in the add startup application | 13:27 |
| paschu | VCoolio, i installed conky 5 minutes before | 13:28 |
| KEFIR | portn0k how do I check if it has effect? my php engine keeps showing errors | 13:28 |
| portn0k | scriptwarlock: mind your nick and write a bash script for /etc/init.d | 13:28 |
| Dr_Willis | conky and gnome - takes a little extra work. You need to have conky wait about 10 sec after gnome startss befr you run conky | 13:28 |
| VCoolio | paschu: ok, see above, also "conky --help" in terminal would have told you that; also "man conky" can be instructive | 13:28 |
| portn0k | KEFIR: ls -al /directory, check the files flags | 13:28 |
| portn0k | KEFIR: but chmod is not likely to fail | 13:28 |
| scriptwarlock | portnock, what about my nick isnt it nice?..lol...hmmm thats new to me | 13:29 |
| portn0k | by that i mean lie to you | 13:29 |
| MouseConfused | Dr_Willis: Why are the linux updates slow today :( | 13:29 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | MouseConfused, maybe you need a new mirror? | 13:29 |
| portn0k | scriptwarlock: i figured it had something to do with bash scripts for some reasdon | 13:29 |
| MikeChelen | MouseConfused: update manager can select the fastest mirror for you | 13:29 |
| MikeChelen | aldur: what refreshing bar do you mean? | 13:30 |
| scriptwarlock | portn0k, so the script wont reside in home anymore? | 13:30 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | MouseConfused, luckily I know where I live in comparison to the distance to the nearest mirror. | 13:30 |
| MouseConfused | yeah I need to change it. | 13:30 |
| portn0k | scriptwarlock: http://developer.novell.com/wiki/index.php/Writing_Init_Scripts | 13:30 |
| MouseConfused | SpaceGhostC2C: Lucky you ! | 13:30 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | MouseConfused, well, look for a mirror closer to you. | 13:30 |
| scriptwarlock | portn0k, ah ok that maybe the answer thanks...i was used to previous ubuntu | 13:31 |
| khensthoth | MouseConfused: You can use the Software Sources to automatically select the best server | 13:31 |
| MikeChelen | !mirror | 13:31 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mirrors - PLEASE use the !torrents to download !Karmic, and help keeping the servers' load low! | 13:31 |
| portn0k | scriptwarlock: this is probably not the most efficient way to do this, but its hwo i do it, i dont use anything in the desktop environment but firefox and an irc client | 13:31 |
| * MouseConfused isnt dumb was just bugging Dr_Willis :( | 13:31 | |
| MikeChelen | thought !mirror might provide some useful info, but that is only about downloads, not updates | 13:32 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | MouseConfused, I've found that khensthoth's solution doesn't select the nearest fastest mirror for me. But if you only want his opinion on the matter, you should ask him if you can pm him. | 13:32 |
| KEFIR | portn0k: great thanks to you, it seems I managed to fix it | 13:32 |
| Dr_Willis | they are not slow here. | 13:32 |
| scriptwarlock | portn0k, k ty | 13:32 |
| MouseConfused | I managed to find the best mirror site by pinging it lol | 13:32 |
| bhuvi | khensthoth : as ubuntu 9.10 moved to upstart from init i heared that boot up manager wont be useful in 9.10 | 13:32 |
| portn0k | KEFIR: aye | 13:33 |
| llutz | scriptwarlock: right place to start conky should be ~/.xinitrc / ~/.xsessionrc | 13:33 |
| MouseConfused | Ireland works the best for me after Canada | 13:33 |
| Dr_Willis | bhuvi: its usefull for some things.. but not as much as it was | 13:33 |
| khensthoth | bhuvi: Not too sure about that | 13:33 |
| scriptwarlock | portn0k, ther i can save my scritps? | 13:33 |
| xvii69 | Hi all | 13:33 |
| Dr_Willis | I have a 'start_conky.sh' script i use. that waits about 10 sec. then starts up the 3+ conky sessions i use | 13:33 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | MouseConfused, that might not be the best method, as different servers are managing different load at different times, but if you're satisfied then, happy hacking. | 13:33 |

| scriptwarlock | theonly way i did networking in ubuntu is removing the network manager | 13:37 |
| portn0k | j^: inorite | 13:37 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | j^ actually like five lines of text that should have been one, or a pastebin. | 13:37 |
| portn0k | ManDay: you have no terminal? | 13:37 |
| bhuvi | Dr_Willis: i see in bum that some services are activated(have a glowing bulb),but the check box is not checked next to it so i cannot disable it from there | 13:37 |
| niko23 | update your codec | 13:37 |
| ManDay | no terminal no nothing portn0k | 13:37 |
| portn0k | ManDay: hit escape on boot to bring up the grup menu, boot into single user mode, and apt-get install gdm <-- my reccomendation | 13:38 |
| bhuvi | khensthoth: i see in bum that some services are activated(have a glowing bulb),but the check box is not checked next to it so i cannot disable it from there | 13:38 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ManDay, you silly person. press CTRL + ALT + 1 then sign in | 13:38 |
| portn0k | no display manager could be a bad thing | 13:38 |
| j^ | SpaceGhostC2C, of those 3 where written, sorry that i write to fast | 13:38 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ManDay, let me know when you're there. | 13:38 |
| ManDay | SpaceGhostC2C, it doesnt work | 13:38 |
| portn0k | SpaceGhostC2C: with what display manager | 13:38 |
| ManDay | i tried | 13:38 |
| portn0k | oh | 13:38 |
| portn0k | hehe | 13:38 |
| Dr_Willis | bhuvi: bum dosetn handle upstart manag4ed services | 13:38 |
| ManDay | absolutely NOTHING works | 13:38 |
| Maiki | Hello, i have an Acer 5536G laptop, and when i connect externale speakers, it doesn't play through it.. any ideas? | 13:38 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | portn0k, have you looked at virtual terminals ever? | 13:38 |
| yangjia | hello,nice to meet you | 13:38 |
| portn0k | SpaceGhostC2C: i misparsed your line | 13:38 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | j^ the idea is you should probably put them all on one line or use pastebin. | 13:38 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | portn0k, no worries. | 13:39 |
| j^ | SpaceGhostC2C, sure, next time, got any idea what broke the default mime thing though? | 13:39 |
| khensthoth | bhuvi: I don't actually use the software. Sorry. | 13:39 |
| yangjia | bye | 13:39 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | j^, no idea friend. It's a quirky thing. | 13:39 |
| ManDay | portn0k, I can't get into grub. i keep hitting esc like a lunatic but grub just skips me. | 13:40 |
| ManDay | I try to install apt-get blindly as SpaceGhostC2C suggested | 13:40 |
| xvii69 | i have updated the Lib that i know like libdvdcss2,nav4 and read also and tried reinstalling Totem-xine and vlc still does not want to play my DVD what am i missing? | 13:40 |
| paschu | how to close conky? | 13:41 |
| ManDay | nonetheless my monitor is virtually useless | 13:41 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ManDay, you can't get any visual? Like nothing? | 13:41 |
| bhuvi | Dr_Willis: how to remove remove extra startup items from upstart,i could not find any helpful docs from google | 13:41 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ManDay, boot from a livecd and then cat your xorg.conf into a pastebin. | 13:41 |
| coz_ | xvii69, did you run * | 13:42 |
| coz_ | sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh | 13:42 |
| * j^ tries to reboot | 13:42 | |
| llutz | paschu: killall conky | 13:42 |
| Dr_Willis | theres the normal startup-manager tool in the menus somewher bhuvi but thats for the desktop user. NOT system services | 13:42 |
| Dr_Willis | bhuvi: for upstart you move/remove the /etc/init/whatever file somewhere else i think. | 13:42 |
| Dr_Willis | bhuvi: theres no fancy tool for upstart Yet. | 13:42 |
| ManDay | SpaceGhostC2C, exactly: nothign. even getting into tty1 - only thing that changed is that my screen then went totally black instead of just looking like broken. anyway - i blindly installed gdm and now it works again \o/ | 13:43 |
| ManDay | crap, why can i not remove gdm with totally messing up? | 13:43 |
| ManDay | *w/o | 13:43 |
| paschu | How to close conky? | 13:43 |
| coz_ | xvii69, also have you tried mplayer for your dvd's ? | 13:43 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ManDay, what are you trying to do exactly | 13:43 |
| xvii69 | Coz:Nop... going to do that now.. | 13:43 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | paschu, you need to read people | 13:43 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | paschu, you need to read people's responses to your questions. | 13:43 |
| coz_ | paschu, did you try killall conky | 13:44 |
| xvii69 | Cox: yes i tried mplayer no go either.. | 13:44 |
| paschu | I had an dc | 13:44 |
| paschu | I couldnt read your responses | 13:44 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | paschu, it was before you dc. | 13:44 |
| bhuvi | Dr_Willis: k thanks anyway | 13:44 |
| coz_ | xveinx, well there are settings in mplayer to allow this also do you still have that installed? | 13:44 |
| KEFIR | guys I'm trying to enable apache server to redirect from / to /index.php , for example, but it's not working. how to do it properly | 13:44 |
| ManDay | SpaceGhostC2C, remove gdm | 13:44 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ManDay, why? Do you want to use a different environment? Like KDE? | 13:45 |
| coz_ | xvii69, sorry do you still have mplayer installed? | 13:45 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | KEFIR, apache should do it automatically. I installed webmin to manage my apache from afar. | 13:45 |
| ManDay | no, i simply dont like GDM | 13:45 |
| ManDay | i want a simply tty login | 13:46 |
| ManDay | why does it totally screw up my system when i remove gdm? | 13:46 |
| xvii69 | Coz: well after all the looking around it was your command worked:sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh | 13:46 |
| ManDay | shouldnt it just drop me into a promt? | 13:46 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ManDay, do you not want a GUI, or just no shiny login screen? | 13:46 |
| KEFIR | SpaceGhostC2C: ok, thanks, ill make a look at this app | 13:46 |
| coz_ | xvii69, if you still have mplayer installed open it up and right click the main window go to Preferences | 13:47 |
| ManDay | no gui at all | 13:47 |
| oCean_ | KEFIR: in /etc/apache2/mods-enabled, you can see the dir.conf enabled? That is where the various index files are mentioned | 13:47 |
| coz_ | xvii69, ok well we can set up mplayer now if you like | 13:47 |
| sasori2501 | hey all. is there a way to kick start my wifi. i restarted and now it doesnt pick up my wifi connections anymore ubu 9.04 nbr | 13:47 |
| oCean_ | KEFIR: like "DirectoryIndex index.html index.cgi index.pl index.php index.xhtml index.htm" | 13:47 |
| titan__ | Updated the kernel on my wifes computer and it needs me to re-run the NVIDIA graphics installer. I am at command prompt now, but when I try to run it, it gives me a permission denied. I believe this might be that the filesystem is currently mounted as read-only. How do I mount the filesystem as read/write assuming that my filesystem is on sda1? | 13:47 |
| xvii69 | coz:do u know why it did not install threw synaptic? | 13:47 |
| KEFIR | hm I simply added these strings into httpd.conf and apache2.conf but after restart it had no effect | 13:48 |
| coz_ | xvii69, also if you want the person you are talking to to be alerted simply type the first few letters of the name and hit tab to get the correct nick this way the text in the person's irc client should turn red or highlighted | 13:48 |
| LetsGo67 | What is the easiest way to set up remote connection across the Internet with SSH in Ubuntu IceWM? | 13:48 |
| KEFIR | maybe I shouldn't write <ifModule> tags there | 13:48 |
| coz_ | xvii69, which did not install via synaptic? | 13:48 |
| oCean_ | KEFIR: there is no need to change httpd.conf. | 13:48 |
| KEFIR | okay, ill check that file you said | 13:49 |
| Dr_Willis | LetsGo67: what doies icewm have to do with it? open up a terminal, ssh remoteipmachine | 13:49 |
| KEFIR | thanks | 13:49 |
| coz_ | xvii69, if you want more info on this stuff you can google ubuntu restricted formats | 13:49 |
| oCean_ | KEFIR: see/use the /etc/apache2/sites-enabled and/or modules-enabled and/or conf.d etc. The httpd.conf is just your basic config | 13:49 |
| Dr_Willis | LetsGo67: unless you want some other type of remote connection | 13:49 |
| LetsGo67 | Dr_Willis: I want the IceWM machine to be the server. | 13:49 |
| xvii69 | coz_, yea for sure on the mplayer | 13:49 |
| om26er | !nick | 13:49 |
| ubottu | Your nick is how people know you on IRC. Please don't change your nicknames too often (use /nick newnick), or it creates a lot of confusion. You should also !register your nick with Freenode. | 13:49 |
| coz_ | xvii69, ok open that up and right click main window and go to preferences | 13:49 |
| Dr_Willis | LetsGo67: Icewm has nothing to do with being a 'server' Unless you are referiong to being a vncdesktop server. Install the services you want to serve | 13:49 |
| urlwolf | updates brought a new kernel, and my non-free nvidia drivers need to be reinstalled | 13:50 |
| KEFIR | oh okay, thanks a lot, i have some experience under windows, but here it's a bit different I see) | 13:50 |
| om26er | !register | om26er | 13:50 |
| ubottu | om26er, please see my private message | 13:50 |
| xvii69 | coz_, k next | 13:50 |
| coz_ | xvii69, go under the "Video" tab and choose xv X11/Xv | 13:50 |
| titan__ | Updated the kernel on my wifes computer and it needs me to re-run the NVIDIA graphics installer. I am at command prompt now, but when I try to run it, it gives me a permission denied. I believe this might be that the filesystem is currently mounted as read-only. How do I mount the filesystem as read/write assuming that my filesystem is on sda1? | 13:50 |
| oCean_ | KEFIR: by default, the index.php should be used as index, if it exists. Alternatively you could add "DirectoryIndex index.php" to your /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default (if that is the site you are working on) | 13:50 |
| xvii69 | coz_, already done | 13:50 |
| urlwolf | I'm in a console. if I try to stop gdm it says: unknown instance, but nvidia drivers say there's X running and I should stop | 13:50 |
| LetsGo67 | Dr_Willis: I tried to read the tutorials, they are confusing. | 13:50 |
| coz_ | xvii69, then under "Codecs & demuxer" tab for video codec family = FFmpeg's libavcodec codec family and for audio codec family = MPEG layer-2, layer-3 | 13:51 |
| LetsGo67 | Dr_Willis: this is all new to me | 13:51 |
| Dr_Willis | you are not being clear on what you are wanting to do either | 13:51 |
| urlwolf | I tried the init.d script, no way to stop gdm | 13:51 |
| portn0k | urlwolf: chmod -x gdm | 13:51 |
| coz_ | xvii69, close and then reopen mplayer for that to take effect | 13:51 |
| Dr_Willis | urlwolf: try sudo service gdm stop | 13:51 |
| portn0k | urlwolf: chmod -x /etc/init.d/gdm *** | 13:51 |
| urlwolf | portn0k, unknown instance | 13:51 |
| roio | hi al | 13:51 |
| portn0k | urlwolf: your console will not give you taht error | 13:52 |
| xvii69 | coz_, ok done | 13:52 |
| andre | Is anyone having an issue with pulseaudio where the volume doesn't actually change, it just mutes itself at about 20%, any lower and its completely silent, any higher and its loud and doesn't change | 13:52 |
| LetsGo67 | Dr_Willis: The IceWM computer is the server. I want it secured with SSH. I want to be able to access it over the Internet using Windows. | 13:52 |
| coz_ | xvii69, that should effectively allow mplayer to play dvd's | 13:52 |
| roio | 1 question | 13:52 |
| KEFIR | oCean_: do I need to use tags like <IfModule dir_module> there? | 13:52 |
| urlwolf | ok chmod -x done | 13:52 |
| urlwolf | then? | 13:52 |
| xvii69 | coz_, gives me error warning MVs no available | 13:52 |
| sasori2501 | hey all. is there a way to kick start my wifi. i restarted and now it doesnt pick up my wifi connections anymore | 13:52 |
| Dr_Willis | LetsGo67: if you want ssh access.. then install the sshd server/service - then you can use putty and winscp and xming on windows to access the server | 13:52 |
| oCean_ | KEFIR: you could, but since that is loaded by default, it is not required | 13:53 |
| coz_ | xvii69, yeah you can ignore that mplayer has been doing that for some time and I have not found the solution | 13:53 |
| portn0k | urlwolf: i was under the impression you didnt want it to start ever, now i would reboot, but.. if you want to re-enable it, chmod +x /etc/init.d/gdm | 13:53 |
| KEFIR | okay, I expected that) | 13:53 |
| urlwolf | still, stop:unknown instance | 13:53 |
| LetsGo67 | Dr_Willis: with SSH can I still use graphic apps? | 13:53 |
| coz_ | xvii69, it works here regardless of that error maybe on an #mplayer channel the fix can be effected or maybe googling it | 13:53 |
| titan__ | How do I mount my ext4 filesystem on sda1 as read/write from the terminal? | 13:54 |
| xvii69 | coz_, thanxs alot works now | 13:54 |
| urlwolf | portn0k, I want to reinstall my nvidia drivers | 13:54 |
| LetsGo67 | Sorry Dr_Willis it crashed. | 13:54 |
| coz_ | xvii69, very cool :) | 13:54 |
| jrib | titan__: there's nothing special you have to do. Just mount it as usual: mount <block device> <mount point> | 13:54 |
| === andre is now known as andre_pl | ||
| portn0k | titan__: `mount /dev/sda1 /path/to/mountpoint` | 13:54 |
| urlwolf | but they don't like that there's X running already, and I cannot stop gdm | 13:54 |
| portn0k | urlwolf: what i told you will not do that, disregard what i said | 13:54 |

| Dr_Willis | LetsGo67: you can install 'xming' on the windows box and get it set where the linux apps appear on the windows machine via ssh - yes | 13:54 |
| shrikant | after installing private cloud whiile installtion can i install public cloud | 13:55 |
| titan__ | jrib. portn0k, I am in recovery mode right now working on the graphics, I believe it is mounted as read-only. I need to mount it as read/write. | 13:55 |
| LetsGo67 | Dr_Willis: okay, then how do I start SSH on the IceWM box, please? | 13:55 |
| jrib | titan__: why are you in recovery mode working on graphics? | 13:55 |
| urlwolf | I'm following tutorials, but gdm: unknown service is stopping me | 13:55 |

| paschu | How can I delete empathy and replace it with pidgin? Everytime i want to delete the empathy package it says that it also have to remove ubuntu desktop. | 13:56 |
| Dr_Willis | !ssh | LetsGo67 | 13:56 |
| ubottu | LetsGo67: 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) | 13:56 |
| titan__ | jrib, I updated the kernel and the NVidia graphics need to be redone because I have drivers not in the ubuntu repository installed. | 13:56 |
| lint | hi, is it possible to change the login window theme? | 13:56 |
| jrib | titan__: you should use dkms | 13:56 |
| portn0k | lint: the new gdm is hard to do that from what i hear, if not next to impossible, i.e. it doesnt allow themeing | 13:56 |
| titan__ | jrib, typed it, no verbose output. What now? | 13:57 |
| jrib | titan__: typed what? | 13:57 |
| urlwolf | If applying recommended updates (new kernel) will kill your guI for good and getting it back requires command line work, we are far from reaching mainstream desktop users... | 13:57 |
| paschu | Somebody said something? I had an disconnect ... again | 13:57 |
| titan__ | jrib, dkms | 13:57 |
| jrib | titan__: I didn't tell you to type dkms. I told you to look into using dkms | 13:57 |
| jrib | titan__: or better yet, just use the ubuntu drivers. Anyway, just pass -o rw,remount to mount if you want to mount sda read-write | 13:58 |
| Guest18757 | Hi everyone! I have some questions about the server-version of ubuntu. I dont want to interupt the conversation here, so if anyone has time to help me just pm :) | 13:58 |
| titan__ | jrib, thanks | 13:58 |
| portn0k | Guest18757: just ask here | 13:58 |
| portn0k | Guest18757: thats the channels purpose | 13:58 |
| Guest18757 | Okey! | 13:58 |
| om26er | installed wubi a few days ago. worked fine. today updated system and a new kernel update came now ubuntu won't boot. bash:grub opens | 13:58 |
| urlwolf | how do I force shutdown X? | 13:59 |
| * om26er gotta reboot | 13:59 | |
| jrib | urlwolf: why? | 13:59 |
| llutz | urlwolf: sudo killall X | 13:59 |
| urlwolf | because sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop says: gdm unknown service | 13:59 |
| jrib | urlwolf: why do you want to shut down X... | 13:59 |
| baytes | urlwolf: ctrl+alt+f1 then sudo killall X | 13:59 |
| urlwolf | X no process found | 14:00 |
| portn0k | urlwolf: `ps aux | grep X` | 14:00 |
| KEFIR | oCean_: how to enable mod_rewrite here? | 14:00 |
| KEFIR | or it's enabled by default? | 14:00 |
| jrib | urlwolf: you're likely doing something the hard way. Tell us what you want to accomplish | 14:00 |
| portn0k | urlwolf: is anything returned? | 14:00 |
| urlwolf | portn0k, no | 14:00 |
| llutz | urlwolf: no X running though | 14:00 |
| oCean_ | KEFIR: you can enable/disable modules by using a2enmod / a2dismod | 14:00 |
| urlwolf | I applied rec updates, then rebooted | 14:00 |
| KEFIR | oh okay | 14:01 |
| louise | openoffice writer is crashing on me without leaveing any meaningful error message. How can I launch it in a way that when it crashes it would generate a backtrace? | 14:01 |
| urlwolf | then ubuntu is in X failsafe | 14:01 |
| KEFIR | thanks | 14:01 |
| urlwolf | I had to rerun the installer for Nvidia drivers last time | 14:01 |
| urlwolf | im on a text console | 14:01 |
| oCean_ | KEFIR: your command would be "a2enmod rewrite" (and restart apache) | 14:01 |
| portn0k | louise: from the command line, im not sure if the verbosity (-v) flag will have any effect | 14:01 |
| urlwolf | but nvidia installer says there's X running and cannot install | 14:01 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | louise: how are you? | 14:01 |
| jrib | urlwolf: are you using the drivers provided by ubuntu in System -> Hardware Drivers? | 14:01 |
| paschu | how can i remove to entry for empathy in the menu of the little message thing :D | 14:02 |
| urlwolf | no, the non-free ones from nvidia | 14:02 |
| Guest18757 | So i got a spare computer, and im thinkin im going to use it as a server for storing my music/film. I want to stream it trough my router on my windows-comps and be able to acces the server trough a browser/ftp-client anywhere. I also want to be able to control with like VNC from my pc, over the router. Is all this possible? Im quite the linux-noob, and dont want to learn it :) | 14:02 |
| jrib | urlwolf: the ones in Hardware Drivers are also the non-free ones. | 14:02 |
| darkasmodey | Hi, all! | 14:02 |
| portn0k | Guest18757: look into mythbuntu | 14:02 |
| urlwolf | I dl them from envidia | 14:02 |
| louise | portn0k: ok.. I will give that a shot. | 14:02 |
| portn0k | its also available from aptitude | 14:02 |
| urlwolf | it's in Downloads | 14:02 |
| jrib | urlwolf: if you use the Hardware Drivers ones then you won't have the issue you are currently having | 14:03 |
| darkasmodey | How i can do autologin in terminal mode? | 14:03 |
| Guest18757 | portn0k: i kinda know what mythbuntu is, but i dont want to stream it to a tv, just to my other comps. | 14:03 |
| sasori2501 | hey all. is there a way to kick start my wifi. i restarted and now it doesnt pick up my wifi connections anymore | 14:03 |
| paschu | how can i remove to entry for empathy in the menu of the little message thing :D | 14:03 |
| urlwolf | jrib, ok, but how do I get back to normal? | 14:03 |
| frogzoo | sasori2501: options in network-manager | 14:03 |
| portn0k | Guest18757: mythbuntu will do that also | 14:03 |
| khensthoth | paschu: Right click the Ubuntu icon, Edit Menu. | 14:03 |
| urlwolf | rebooting givesme a crappy X screen saying someting about defauls | 14:03 |
| portn0k | Guest18757: think of it as an ubuntu media server | 14:03 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Good night everyone. | 14:03 |
| anon423 | i use: sed -n '/<!-- start content -->/,/<\/div>/p' | 14:04 |
| portn0k | since thats what it is | 14:04 |
| paschu | khensthoth, Its not in the main menu | 14:04 |
| Guest18757 | portn0k: i just want to view the files in my networking sharing center. that's possible too? And the ftp-acces? | 14:04 |
| jrib | urlwolf: then use System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers ? | 14:04 |
| louise | portn0k: no effect | 14:04 |
| anon423 | sorry wrong window | 14:04 |
| portn0k | Guest18757: just ant to view the files? id just use samba shares | 14:04 |
| baytes | Guest18757: if you dont want to go with mythbuntu, you can just install either the desktop or server version of ubuntu and then install the services you would like, ftp, ssh, etc | 14:04 |
| urlwolf | I'm logging in in low graphics mode | 14:04 |
| khensthoth | paschu: In the mail-like Indicator Applet? | 14:04 |
| paschu | khensthoth, I guess yes | 14:04 |
| Guest18757 | baytes: is that hard to to? | 14:05 |
| baytes | Guest18757, file sharing is almost the same in ubuntu as windows | 14:05 |
| portn0k | louise: dont kno wwhat to tell you, i use vi for editing ;x | 14:05 |
| khensthoth | paschu: Let me search for it. As far as I know though, you'd have to remove empathy. | 14:05 |
| daedra | louise: strace openoffice | 14:06 |
| urlwolf | searching drivers brings v185, I had v 190 installed | 14:06 |
| Kudi | half of the time when i exit out of firefox i have to close it again with htop how can i close it one time properly | 14:06 |
| Guest18757 | baytes: okey! but the server version, it has no graphics, right? Mayby its better i start of with normal version | 14:06 |
| Kudi | i use openbox by the way | 14:06 |
| jrib | urlwolf: so? | 14:06 |
| louise | daedra: thanks. Wilco | 14:06 |
| baytes | Guest18757, you would just do the regular install and then sudo apt-get install ssh samba. then you'll be able to browse your window shares from ubuntu and be able to view your ubuntu shares on windows | 14:06 |
| paschu | khensthoth, But when i want to remove the package it says that it have to remove "ubuntu-desktop" | 14:06 |
| daedra | wilco? | 14:06 |
| LetsGo67 | Thank you Dr_Willis | 14:06 |
| daedra | ahh will comply | 14:07 |
| baytes | Guest18757,no it has a GUI (graphics) it just offers you the options during the install to install the servers services (apache(http), ssh, etc,) | 14:07 |
| Guest18757 | baytes: okey :D Can i acces it trough VNC-like programs? | 14:07 |
| daedra | copy | 14:07 |
| urlwolf | why, when I install important security updates (linux-image, etc) it kills my nvidia settings? | 14:07 |
| daedra | lol | 14:07 |
| portn0k | Guest18757: if you set it up as such | 14:07 |
| khensthoth | paschu: If you know what you are doing, removing ubuntu-desktop doesn't really matter. It's removed on my system, but I don't recommend doing it. | 14:07 |
| baytes | Guest18757, yes you can. remote desktop just like windows. you'll have to use vnc viewer on your windows client but yes itw ill work no problems | 14:07 |
| daedra | louise: Copy. Over. | 14:07 |
| jrib | urlwolf: because you aren't using the drivers from ubuntu | 14:07 |
| oCean_ | paschu: "sudo rm /usr/share/indicators/messages/applications/empathy" - i guess this will remove Empathy from the indicator applet for *every* user. | 14:07 |
| urlwolf | so, if I use those, it'll work ok? | 14:07 |
| Guest18757 | baytes: sweet.. thx | 14:08 |
| baytes | Guest18757, thats actually how i connect graphiclly to my server, besides sshing into it | 14:08 |
| jrib | urlwolf: yes | 14:08 |
| khensthoth | paschu: Yup. Follow oCean_'s instruction. Just found it online | 14:08 |
| baytes | Guest18757, let me know if you have any issues when you start setting things up i'll answer any questions you need | 14:08 |
| Guest18757 | baytes: could i acces my files just trough a simple browser? | 14:08 |
| portn0k | baytes: forward X through ssh! :D | 14:08 |
| urlwolf | should I just select the recommended one and activate? | 14:08 |
| sasori2501 | frogzoo: hanks for the response. sorry i only have; network connections and network tools, is that what your refering too? | 14:08 |
| urlwolf | or will I need to muck around with X.org etc? | 14:08 |
| baytes | portn0k: the way its suppost to be done :) hehe | 14:08 |
| paschu | khensthoth, it says "no such file or directory" | 14:08 |
| louise | daedra: alright. Are you able to read anything meaningful from this? http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/335913/ | 14:09 |
| jrib | urlwolf: no mucking about with xorg.conf | 14:09 |
| m0nkfish | i have a related query.. is it possible to run for example KDE on one system, then use it to graphically interact with another system that doesnt have a GUI installed | 14:09 |
| frogzoo | sasori2501: right click the network manager icon - looks like a wireless | 14:09 |
| Guest18757 | baytes: could i acces my files just trough a simple browser? | 14:09 |
| jrib | urlwolf: depending on what you've done so far though, you may have to undo that | 14:09 |
| daedra | louise: access("/etc/ld.so.nohwcap", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) This is not a good thing... probably | 14:09 |
| urlwolf | dl and installing driver | 14:09 |
| portn0k | m0nkfish: what would you "graphically interact with" without a "graphical user interface"? | 14:10 |
| urlwolf | a friend came and helped me install ubuntu. He grabbed nvidia drivers from the nvidia website | 14:10 |
| khensthoth | paschu: Have you already removed empathy? If you had, that file would have been deleted. | 14:10 |
| napsy | Hello. Is there a PPA for gnome-shell? | 14:10 |
| baytes | Guest18757, yes however then you start running into security issues. if you leave all your files open through apache (web server) then anyone who stumbles upon your ip address can view them | 14:10 |
| paschu | khensthoth, No i havent deleted it yet | 14:10 |
| sasori2501 | frogzoo: hey, cool, i have done that, went to preferences, but what am i looking for here exaclty?? thank you again for the help, sort of desperate situation | 14:10 |
| urlwolf | restarting now... | 14:10 |
| portn0k | baytes: chances are hes behind a router without ports forwarded.. but still worth warning i suppose | 14:10 |
| louise | daedra maybe I should file a bug report | 14:10 |
| Guest18757 | baytes: i dont think anyone ever will :P haha. | 14:11 |
| baytes | portn0k, would make me nervious lol, | 14:11 |
| urlwolf | argh! again in low graphics mode! | 14:11 |
| portn0k | baytes: aye | 14:11 |
| frogzoo | sasori2501: edit connections -> connect automatically | 14:11 |
| m0nkfish | portn0k: it was my understanding that various environments like GNOME and KDE merely sit on top of the underlying operating system | 14:11 |
| portn0k | i tend to use sshfs for these things | 14:11 |
| paschu | khensthoth, first i deleted it in my software-center but it was still there. After i noticed that it will delete ubuntu-desktop, i installed it again and now there are 2 entrys of empathy | 14:11 |
| m0nkfish | so is it possible to sit on top of a remote OS? | 14:12 |
| baytes | Guest18757, ok - you can do that though. not hard at all | 14:12 |
| sasori2501 | frogzoo: at the moment i am using the hardline to connect | 14:12 |
| daedra | louise: well, about that file, check if it exists, and if it does what permissions it has | 14:12 |
| portn0k | m0nkfish: i couldnt parse your second line for anything useable | 14:12 |
| Guest18757 | baytes and portn0k: thx! ill be back with moore questions;) | 14:12 |
| baytes | Guest18757,easier way would prob be to just install a secure ftp server and then ftp to your ip adress from the other computer. | 14:12 |
| daedra | louise: if the file doesn't exist, look into getting that file | 14:12 |
| baytes | Guest18757,k good luck | 14:12 |
| ajunior | hello | 14:12 |

| sasori2501 | frogzoo: ok, tried that, going to try now, brb | 14:13 |
| khensthoth | paschu: Hmm. In terminal: sudo dpkg-reconfigure indicator-applet. See if that helps | 14:13 |
| paschu | khensthoth, Nothing happened | 14:14 |
| nixot | Hello all | 14:14 |
| portn0k | any of you guys play SOCOM: confrontation? im about to head on, seeing if i can pwn anyones soul from here | 14:14 |
| khensthoth | paschu: Still have two entries of empathy? | 14:14 |
| nixot | I'm using ubuntu 8.04 on my eee pc, its great except when I use the FN volume keys both master and front volumes are moved. so it's silent at halfway up | 14:15 |
| paschu | khensthoth, Somehow the first command worked, Now i have 1 empathy but there are 2 lines and it doesnt look so god | 14:15 |
| m0nkfish | portn0k: my question is basic.. can you run KDE from machine A on top of ubuntu on machine B | 14:15 |
| nixot | how can I fix it? | 14:15 |
| nixot | m0nkfish: what do you mean by that? | 14:15 |
| m0nkfish | lol i dont know how to make myself clearer | 14:15 |
| khensthoth | napsy: https://launchpad.net/~vperetokin/+archive/unofficial-gnome-shell Unofficial. Use at your own risk. =) | 14:16 |
| baytes | anyone know how to set your gnome-terminal profile to be zoomed out (ctrl plus -) one level when every time it starts? i've changed the default font size but no dice | 14:16 |
| m0nkfish | let me think of an analogy | 14:16 |
| portn0k | m0nkfish: share a desktop environment on 2 machines? ive never heard of such sourcery | 14:16 |
| nixot | m0nkfish: you mean run KDE and ubuntu at the same time? | 14:16 |
| m0nkfish | portn0k: not 'share' exactly | 14:16 |
| khensthoth | paschu: What do you mean by two lines? | 14:16 |
| m0nkfish | but run a single installation of KDE on top of multiple OSs | 14:16 |
| baytes | m0nkfish: you mean run ubuntu inside ubuntu? like a virtual machine? | 14:16 |
| m0nkfish | you know you can SSH into a linux box to access the terminal | 14:16 |

| paschu | khensthoth, The lines which split the entrys | 14:17 |
| m0nkfish | sorry not OS i mean graphical environment | 14:17 |

| m0nkfish | so rather than interact with the operating system that is on the machine, it interacts with the operating system that is on the remote box | 14:17 |
| napsy | khensthoth: thanks | 14:18 |
| jtaji | m0nkfish: not quite how you are thinking, but an SSH connection can do X forwarding... in other words your local machine running KDE on whatever can display graphical apps running on a remote machine | 14:18 |
| jtaji | !ops | billym13 | 14:18 |

| zgmf-x20a | frogzoo: hey back, no go. and restarted, the problem is getting wireless netowrks to show up in the panel at all | 14:18 |
| jtaji | m0nkfish: see ssh -X or ssh - Y | 14:18 |
| m0nkfish | jtaji i think that is what i mean :) | 14:18 |
| baytes | m0nkfish: maybe vnc if thats not what your talking about, ssh -X is just more secure | 14:19 |
| nixot | I'm using ubuntu Hardy on my laptop, and when i use the fn volume keys, both the master and front channels are increased/decreased, meaning it's silent at 50% | 14:19 |
| nixot | how do I fix it? | 14:19 |
| baytes | nioxt: system - preferences - keyboard shortcuts possibly | 14:19 |
| m0nkfish | so for example, my laptop is running windows, and my server is running ubuntu server (no graphical environment)... the goal would be to run some virtual machine on my laptop that uses KDE to interact with the server | 14:20 |
| FloodBot4 | !netsplit | 14:20 |
| ubottu | netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit | 14:20 |
| baytes | m0nkfish: you'll have to install kde on the server for that to work | 14:20 |
| m0nkfish | x( | 14:20 |
| dAlfa89_ | Yay, netsplit<3 | 14:20 |
| oCean_ | m0nkfish: have a look at XDMCP protocol, it's not exactly as you decribe though - more ore less like tsclient | 14:21 |

| MatBoy | alberto: trail and error, it gave me pain in my ass a long time ago... an upgrade fixed it I thought | 15:07 |
| ratbert | MatBoy, to play games :) | 15:07 |
| alberto | I'm using Karmic Koala | 15:07 |
| alberto | 64 bit | 15:07 |
| MatBoy | ratbert: vbox is not designed for that | 15:07 |
| X1111 | |OLLIE|, it works just fine when booted into windows | 15:07 |
| MatBoy | ratbert: my XP vm has 128MB videomem | 15:08 |
| === manuel__ is now known as unkuiri | ||
| |OLLIE| | ah ok. then its not the lens. Mine was broken in both ubuntu and windows. | 15:08 |
| oCean_ | alberto: ok, here is an article http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/install-flash-10-ubuntu-linux-64bit.html that I followed to make it work on 64 bit | 15:08 |
| xxtripxx | does anyone have knowledge of the debian chroot | 15:08 |
| cgroza | hello, my webcam in skype is very dark ...how to make it brighter? | 15:08 |
| LetsGo67 | To everyone: I am trying to use SSH. It will only work on the computer itself, not on a computer right next to it. Can someone help please? | 15:08 |
| alberto | oCean_ Thank you very much. | 15:08 |
| luomo | phil_fl:Its local service provider based modem. It has ethernet slots. I could connect to modem through wired as well as wireless network. | 15:08 |
| === alberto is now known as Alberto | ||
| luomo | phil_fl: an it is router also | 15:09 |
| ratbert | MatBoy, but i have only 128 what will happen if i give it all to the vbox | 15:09 |
| paschu | what would happen if i delete this integrator applet? | 15:09 |
| phil_fl | luomo: ok so you connect your computer to the modem through wired connection and then nothing happens ? | 15:09 |
| MatBoy | ratbert: vbox is not designed for games :) | 15:09 |
| oCean_ | alberto: the script is a little flawed though... However the download of the actual flashplayer, and the nspluginwrapper/linking part worked and did the trick for me | 15:09 |
| TheSlacker | Letsgo: try this: service iptables stop | 15:09 |
| xxtripxx | i need to run this command in the debian chroot for my palm pre "apt-get install -y gnuboy-sdl" | 15:09 |
| mmaksimov | <xxtripxx>: this kinda depends on what you call "knowledge".... | 15:09 |
| khensthoth | paschu: If you mean indicator applet, nothing. You can remove it if you don't like. | 15:09 |
| LetsGo67 | TheSlacker: on server or client? | 15:09 |
| TheSlacker | server | 15:09 |
| xxtripxx | i get this error.... | 15:10 |
| unkuiri | hi, how make grub pass the splash screen in grub 2, just like what can be done in previous versions? | 15:10 |
| ratbert | MatBoy, i know people keep saying this but i play on it old games but it works | 15:10 |
| Alberto | I'm also having problems between Jack and PulseAudio...Does anybody know why? | 15:10 |
| xxtripxx | /bin/sh: apt-get: not found | 15:10 |
| Migi32 | Hey everyone. My headphones work in GStreamer and Rhythmbox but not in Firefox (+Flash) or Wine. Any ideas? | 15:10 |
| luomo | phil_fl:yes same problem.As modem is in Breezy modem and connects through DHCP. | 15:10 |
| mmaksimov | <xxtripxx>: I did a bit of hacking.... ooops! let me see it in my system | 15:10 |
| MatBoy | ratbert: that might work, but they don't need that much mem anyway | 15:10 |
| ^mNotIntelligent | hello everyone ! | 15:10 |
| ZORG2 | Problem: under UBUNTU , Imagick ->getImagePixel()->getColor() returns wrong color. But on WindowsXP the re is all right | 15:10 |
| paschu | what would happen if i delete this integrator applet? | 15:10 |
| xxtripxx | huh | 15:10 |
| khensthoth | paschu: If you mean indicator applet, nothing. You can remove it if you don't like. | 15:11 |
| xxtripxx | mmaksimov: not sure what ur talking about | 15:11 |
| paschu | khensthoth, Uhm, and where could i see if i got new messages in pidgin? | 15:11 |
| phil_fl | luomo, Breezy is to use a modem to dial, but you told me that this is a router, your modem does not connect itslef to the provider you have to trigger the copnnection ? | 15:11 |
| ratbert | MatBoy, what will happen with ubuntu if i give all the video ram to the mashine was my question | 15:12 |
| mmaksimov | xxtripxx: ok, back to the beginning. What exactly your problem with chroot is? Unable to apt-get it or what? | 15:12 |
| khensthoth | paschu: Tools > Preferences > Show system tray icon - Always | 15:12 |
| xxtripxx | correct | 15:12 |
| MatBoy | ratbert: depends what you have set in xorg.conf I think | 15:12 |
| MatBoy | ratbert: trail and error :) | 15:12 |
| luomo | phil_fl:yes i have to trigger the connection. May be it is not router. I dont know. I used to connect using DSL username/passsword. | 15:12 |
| ratbert | MatBoy, i will try and see :D cheers | 15:13 |
| ratbert | thanks for the answers | 15:13 |
| khensthoth | paschu: Tools > plugins Libnotify Popups and Message notification - configure to the point you like it | 15:13 |
| LetsGo67 | TheSlacker: server says iptables is not a recognised service. | 15:13 |
| Alberto | Does anybody know why I can't connect Jack and Pulseaudio to record instruments in Ubuntu Karmic Koala 64 bit? | 15:13 |
| mmaksimov | xxtripxx: what's the exact package name you used? | 15:13 |
| Alberto | My soundcard is an Intel HDA | 15:13 |
| unkuiri | hi, how make grub pass the splash screen in grub 2, just like what can be done in previous versions? | 15:13 |
| xxtripxx | http://www.webos-internals.org/wiki/Application:Gnuboy | 15:13 |
| xxtripxx | number 4 | 15:14 |
| phil_fl | luomo, I'm sorry but I'm a little confused Breezy is to be use with the dialup connection, most DSL provider give you a modem able to connect by itself can you give me the brand of your modem ? | 15:14 |
| gawry | I cant install pdo in ubuntu server... when i install it gives the following error when starting apache... | 15:14 |

| gawry | Does anyone know how to solve this? | 15:15 |
| legend2440 | unkuiri: in terminal type gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub remove the word splash save fule and then in terminal run sudo update-grub | 15:15 |
| khensthoth | Alberto: Jack is sorta the equivalent of Pulseaudio in terms of what they are doing. You either need to turn off PulseAudio when you are using JACK, or uninstall PulseAudio (not recommended). | 15:15 |
| petsounds | hi.. there's hundreds of ' Launching Wallet Server ' on panel and it's slowing down my pc. http://imagebin.org/74291 | 15:15 |
| LetsGo67 | TheSlacker: do you use SSH? | 15:15 |
| khensthoth | Alberto: Are you trying to record through Line In though? | 15:15 |
| FloodBot4 | gawry: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 15:15 |
| Alberto | khensthoth Exactly. | 15:15 |
| mmaksimov | xxtripxx: so your chroot'ed environment doesn't know the "gnuboy-sdl" package? | 15:15 |
| unkuiri | thanks legend2440...:) | 15:15 |
| legend2440 | unkuiri: in terminal type gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub remove the word splash save file and then in terminal run sudo update-grub | 15:15 |
| paschu | how can i delete this applet thing, khensthoth | 15:15 |
| LetsGo67 | TheSlacker: do you have a pulse? | 15:15 |
| xxtripxx | i take it, yes | 15:15 |
| legend2440 | unkuiri: your welcome | 15:15 |
| khensthoth | Alberto: In the terminal, run alsamixer. You probably could turn up the Playback volume for Line In. Then what you need to do next is to record whatever is being played back through the soundcard. | 15:16 |
| Migi32 | Hey everyone. My headphones work in GStreamer and Rhythmbox but not in Firefox (+Flash) or Wine. Any ideas? | 15:16 |
| Frogging101 | I am having an issue with a thin client. When the thin client starts up and gets to the login screen, the mouse and keyboard don't work. The ltsp server is a desktop computer, and the client is a laptop. | 15:16 |
| khensthoth | paschu: Right Click, Remove From Panel. | 15:16 |
| jtaji | petsounds: hmm wallet server.. not sure... but in xchat prefs you should set "auto accept file transfer" to no because sometimes idiots on IRC try to send you files repeatedly | 15:16 |
| jtaji | petsounds: and you get 100 windows like that | 15:16 |
| matteo1990 | Hi all, i am having problems with my wireless connection on Kubuntu. All worked fine with Gnome Ubuntu but now that i switched i cannot connect. the network manager see the wireless network but i have a yellow exclamation mark at his left... Dunno what to do... Anyone may help? | 15:16 |
| Alberto | khensthoth Yes, that's correct, but I'm trying to use Ardour, which works with Jack, but doesn't work with PulseAudio, I think... | 15:17 |
| khensthoth | paschu: System Preferences > Startup Application: Remove the entry or the tick for Indicator Applet. | 15:17 |
| petsounds | jtaji : no it's not file transfer it's happen when i open kde apps. | 15:17 |
| paschu | khensthoth, thanks | 15:17 |
| khensthoth | Alberto: That would probably be correct. No experience with Ardour though. Sorry. | 15:17 |
| luomo | phil_fl:model no of modem is:WA3002G4 and I have to make start my connection everytime I want to connect and then disconnect when I want not to use. | 15:17 |
| LetsGo67 | Please! Someone help me with SSH! I am new here! | 15:17 |
| Alberto | khensthoth Ok, thanks very much. | 15:18 |
| AegNuddel | How do I edit the xorg.conf file in Ubuntu? I need to change my virtual screen size so I can see applications completely. I tried sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf but that got me a blank document | 15:18 |
| khensthoth | Alberto: Had a look at this? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToJACKConfiguration | 15:18 |
| Alberto | khensthoth No, I had not. Thanks again! :-) | 15:18 |
| mmaksimov | xxtripxx: Can't reach packages.ubuntu.com right now.... But I guess you have to edit your chroot-ed envirnment's /etc/apt/sources.list | 15:19 |
| llutz | !someone | LetsGo67 | 15:19 |
| ubottu | LetsGo67: 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? | 15:19 |
| xxtripxx | for what deb??? | 15:19 |
| xxtripxx | i dont know where it's coming from | 15:19 |
| LetsGo67 | How do I use SSH from one computer to another on a local network? | 15:19 |
| khensthoth | Alberto: You might even want to read about Ubuntu Studio. http://ubuntustudio.org/ | 15:19 |
| llutz | LetsGo67: ssh user@host | 15:19 |
| mmaksimov | xxtripxx: I think this has to be in multiverse | 15:20 |
| gawry | Does anyone know how to solve this http://paste.ubuntu.com/335954/ | 15:20 |
| AegNuddel | It only has a vertical resolution of 600 and I think I need 768 | 15:20 |
| gawry | ? | 15:20 |
| LetsGo67 | could not resolve | 15:20 |
| llutz | LetsGo67: ssh user@ip-adr-of-host | 15:20 |
| matteo1990 | Hi all, i am having problems with my wireless connection on Kubuntu. All worked fine with Gnome Ubuntu but now that i switched i cannot connect. the network manager see the wireless network but i have a yellow exclamation mark at his left... Dunno what to do... Anyone may help? | 15:20 |
| phil_fl | luomo: I see, ok, so far I can see your modem is 192.168.1.1 for the interface there you can choose if DHCP is enable or not | 15:20 |
| phil_fl | luomo: I would recomand to set your eth0 to 192.168.1.2 and then connect to your modem to check the configuration | 15:21 |
| baytes | gawry: it looks like the required module 'pdo' that is a dependency of pdo_dblib is not loaded. should be able to just load that module restart apache and be good to go | 15:21 |
| Frogging101 | I am having an issue with a thin client. When the thin client starts up and gets to the login screen, the mouse and keyboard don't work. The ltsp server is a desktop computer, and the client is a laptop. | 15:21 |
| luomo | phil_fl: I cant configure my modem. Its locked somehow. | 15:22 |
| gawry | baytes: I wish it was that simple | 15:22 |
| xxtripxx | mmaksimov: i can download the apt-get command in linux | 15:22 |
| xxtripxx | mmaksimov: but not into the chroot | 15:22 |
| Frogging101 | !ltsp | 15:22 |
| ubottu | LTSP is the Linux Terminal Server Project, which adds thin-client support to Linux servers. See chapter 3 of the !edubuntuhandbook, http://www.ltsp.org and/or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Terminal_Server_Project | 15:22 |
| mmaksimov | xxtripxx: sorry? what exactly do you mean by "can't download"? | 15:22 |
| phil_fl | luomo, login and passord are admin/admin by default those credentials are not working ? | 15:23 |
| khensthoth | matteo1990: If it's possible, connect using Ethernet cable, get all updates, and see if the problem persist. Otherwise, switch to wicd to see if it helps. | 15:23 |
| xxtripxx | well the apt-get command downloads the sdl im looking for, correct? | 15:23 |
| mmaksimov | xxtripxx: downloads and installs | 15:23 |
| gawry | baytes: http://paste.ubuntu.com/335961/ | 15:24 |
| luomo | phil_fl:ok | 15:24 |
| andy | hi | 15:24 |
| xxtripxx | mmaksimov: right it will let me run the command when im in the home directory on my linux pc but not when im chrooted | 15:24 |
| andy | fags | 15:24 |
| grawity | andy: bye | 15:25 |
| PeoneEr | çäàðîâà äîëáàéîïèêè :( | 15:25 |
| mmaksimov | xxtripxx: I guess it may require you to be root | 15:25 |
| nixot | HELP! There's a fish swimming round my screen! | 15:25 |
| phil_fl | luomo, if you forgot the login/password you can reset the modem to default factory settings most modem have a pin hole be carefull when you do that | 15:25 |
| docmax | hello got problems with grub... boot does not find config file... have to try "configfile" several times | 15:25 |
| xxtripxx | i tried running sudo in front of it, still nothing | 15:25 |
| luomo | phil_fl:where is that pin hole? | 15:25 |
| Alberto | Is there any way to use ALSA instead of PULSEAUDIO, in order to be able to work with Ardour, without having to downgrade to Ubuntu 9.04 from Karmic Koala? | 15:25 |
| grawity | xxtripxx: What is the exact error message you get? | 15:25 |
| Frogging101 | I am having an issue with a thin client. When the thin client starts up and gets to the login screen, the mouse and keyboard don't work. The ltsp server is a desktop computer, and the client is a laptop. | 15:25 |
| xxtripxx | /bin/sh: apt-get: not found | 15:25 |
| grawity | xxtripxx: Well, have you installed apt-get to inside the chroot? | 15:26 |
| xxtripxx | how would i do that into the palm pre device | 15:26 |
| mmaksimov | xxtripxx: there's no sudo in chroot-ed environment by default, you have to start chroot specifically for root.... let me see.... | 15:26 |
| phil_fl | luomo; on the backside of your modem, but it will reset all the configuration, check on the internet or your documentation | 15:26 |
| baytes | gawry: found a thread says, the issue could be with the "pecl module PDO_PGSQL is conflicting with php5-pgsql." https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/63164 | 15:26 |
| khensthoth | Alberto: You are probably using ALSA. ALSA is like the sound card driver - it interacts with the hardware. PulseAudio sits on top of ALSA to serve sound | 15:27 |
| phil_fl | luomo; be very careful, refer to your documentation for reseting your modem | 15:27 |
| dAlfa89_ | GNOME still refuses to boot, and GDM doesn't load either, stuck with KDE and KDM, any ideas chaps? | 15:27 |
| mmaksimov | xxtripxx: schroot -c YOUR_CHROOT_CONFIG_NAME -u root | 15:27 |
| Alberto | khensthoth Ok :) | 15:27 |
| sierinjs | Can I make ubuntu NOT spawn gnome or anything, just X? | 15:27 |
| Frogging101 | sierinjs: yes, just type 'sudo X :1 | 15:28 |
| xxtripxx | so how do you suggest i run the command then? | 15:28 |
| Alberto | khensthoth Should I uninstall PulseAudio, then? | 15:28 |
| matteo1990 | Hi all, i am having problems with my wireless connection on Kubuntu. All worked fine with Gnome Ubuntu but now that i switched i cannot connect. the network manager see the wireless network but i have a yellow exclamation mark at his left... Dunno what to do... Anyone may help? | 15:28 |
| Frogging101 | I am having an issue with a thin client. When the thin client starts up and gets to the login screen, the mouse and keyboard don't work. The ltsp server is a desktop computer, and the client is a laptop. | 15:28 |
| baytes | dAlfa89: you could remove x windows and kde, gnome everything all together, then reinstall x windows and just gnome | 15:28 |
| dAlfa89_ | baytes: Remove X? What's the package name? | 15:28 |
| mmaksimov | xxtripxx: er..... how do you typically enter the chroot'ed environment? | 15:28 |
| Alberto | khensthoth By the way, if I uninstall pulseaudio, no speaker icon appears on the right top of the screen anymore... | 15:29 |
| xxtripxx | i have to type novaterm | 15:29 |
| xxtripxx | in the terminal | 15:29 |
| sierinjs | Also I seem to not can't write letter between d and g in _ramebu__er... ;-D | 15:29 |
| khensthoth | Alberto: Yup. That's the thing. Ubuntu grows more dependent on PulseAudio. | 15:29 |
| xxtripxx | i believe at that point im chrooted | 15:29 |
| sierinjs | s/can't/can | 15:29 |
| Alberto | khensthoth Ok, I understand. | 15:29 |
| luomo | phil_fl:ok I have seen that and I am not going to do anything with that hole. Because it will be starting new problem. Now phil_fl what you want to know more about modem as i have to disconnect to check configuration ? Please give me the solution of my problem or tell me how to proceed? | 15:29 |
| xxtripxx | read this maybe you can have a better understanding of what im doing... | 15:29 |
| khensthoth | Alberto: You can however set the volume through alsamixer | 15:29 |
| xxtripxx | http://www.webos-internals.org/wiki/Application:Gnuboy | 15:29 |
| xxtripxx | click the debian link | 15:30 |
| Alberto | khensthoth You mean...Without PulseAudio installed? | 15:30 |
| mmaksimov | xxtripxx: ....reading..... | 15:30 |
| khensthoth | Alberto: Yup | 15:30 |
| baytes | dAlfa89: should be xorg | 15:30 |
| dAlfa89_ | baytes: I'll try that, back in a tick | 15:30 |
| baytes | dAlfa89, then kde would be kde-window-manager | 15:30 |
| dAlfa89_ | baytes: Couldn't I just do kubuntu-desktop? | 15:31 |
| baytes | dAlfa89, possibly. are you on kubuntu or ubuntu. if kubuntu then yea kubuntu-desktop | 15:31 |
| Frogging101 | I am having an issue with a thin client. When the thin client starts up and gets to the login screen, the mouse and keyboard don't work. The ltsp server is a desktop computer, and the client is a laptop. | 15:31 |
| baytes | dAlfa89, after you remove them you'll need to sudo apt-get autoremove then sudo apt-get autoclean | 15:32 |
| baytes | also | 15:32 |
| dAlfa89_ | baytes: I installed Ubuntu at first, but installed Kubuntu when I had the problems, would purge kde work? | 15:32 |
| dAlfa89_ | kubuntu-desktop^ | 15:32 |
| mmaksimov | xxtripxx: er.... I guess you have some pre-packaged debian image mounted and chrooted into it, right? | 15:33 |
| sierinjs | Where can I write what to start when X is starting? | 15:33 |
| jtaji | !puregnome | dAlfa89_ | 15:33 |
| ubottu | dAlfa89_: If you want to remove all !KDE packages, type « sudo apt-get remove kdelibs4c2 kdelibs5-data && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » into a !terminal | 15:33 |
| baytes | dAlfa89, i would think so yes, but im not sure if it will grab all dependecies or not | 15:33 |
| xxtripxx | yes i have it on the device but im not sure if im chrooted | 15:33 |
| xxtripxx | i know that when i type novaterm it says root@palm pre | 15:34 |
| luomo | phil_fl:Please tell me what to do? | 15:34 |
| luomo | phil_fl: Please tell me what to do? | 15:34 |

| thevishy | control theme , any recommendations - the default ones are not to my taste | 15:35 |
| mmaksimov | xxtripxx: does it list "internal", "cf"? | 15:35 |

| wrapster | even when i run as root... | 15:36 |
| wrapster | how do i resolve it? | 15:36 |
| AegNuddel | that brings up something else I am curious about--can one make one's own ubuntu themes? | 15:36 |
| xxtripxx | or justin@ubuntu | 15:36 |
| llutz | wrapster: do not run wine as root | 15:36 |
| grawity | AegNuddel: Of course | 15:36 |
| wrapster | llutz: even otherwise i get the same issue | 15:36 |
| mmaksimov | xxtripxx: how do you switch between the two? | 15:36 |
| llutz | wrapster: then make your home has right permissions | 15:37 |
| thevishy | i am looking for recommendations :p | 15:37 |
| AegNuddel | I'd be interested in customizing mine ;) | 15:37 |
| wrapster | llutz: ok | 15:37 |
| wrapster | llutz: yeah changed that.. working now | 15:37 |
| grawity | AegNuddel: There are several parts - GTK (the buttons and other controls), Metacity (the window borders) ... I think #gnome and http://gnome-look.org/ can help with that. | 15:37 |
| om26er | can compiz be activated with nouveau driver ? | 15:37 |

| grawity | LetsGo67: It's SSH, yes? | 16:12 |

| Migi32 | help! My Creative Fatal1ty usb headset works only with OSS and only with Totem/Rhythmbox. Not with Firefox or Flash or Wine! Becoming desperate! Please help! | 16:13 |
| Frogging101 | dAlfa89_: I have made a thread on the forums, and my threads seem to be the ones that are never answered. I have checked google, I have checked the wiki, i checked everywhere. There are no answers. So what should i do? | 16:13 |
| grawity | LetsGo67: So PuTTY being the most popular Windows SSH client, it accepts all keys supported by OpenSSH. | 16:13 |
| cj | thiebaude: also, $ cat /proc/cmdline | 16:13 |

| === ba is now known as Guest90385 | ||
| cj | thiebaude: I thought it might be a manually-set size on the kernel command line, but no | 16:13 |
| grawity | LetsGo67: You'll need to convert them to PuTTY's format though (open PuTTYgen, click "Import OpenSSH key") - but it's still the same RSA. | 16:13 |
| thiebaude | cj, im not sure | 16:13 |
| cj | thiebaude: the bios says 4G, as does the site from which I bought it... | 16:14 |
| cj | thiebaude: yeah, me too ;) | 16:14 |

| Guest90385 | anyoen know if Centos would be a better choice? | 16:15 |
| grawity | LetsGo67: Usually, OpenSSH expects your primary key to be stored in ~/.ssh/ -- precisely, 'id_rsa' for the private key and 'id_rsa.pub' for the public one. (That's for RSA; it supports DSA too.) | 16:15 |
| dAlfa89_ | What's GTK's package name? o: | 16:15 |
| Scunizi | Soarsa: possibly | 16:16 |
| LetsGo67 | grawity: in Ubuntu, yes, but in Windows? | 16:16 |
| grawity | LetsGo67: Windows... wherever you want. | 16:16 |
| LetsGo67 | grawity: so it will ask me for the filepath? | 16:16 |
| Migi32 | Jeez, don't I give enough information? WHAT: Creative Fatal1ty USB Headset. WHY: Only works with OSS, Totem and Rhythmbox, not Firefox, Flash or Wine. WHEN: NOW! | 16:16 |
| LetsGo67 | Example: it can be on my USB drive? | 16:16 |
| grawity | LetsGo67: Yes - unless you store it in configuration, or load the key to ssh-agent (pageant) | 16:16 |
| LetsGo67 | All right, thanks! TTYL everyone! | 16:17 |
| Ghoul | oh, nevermind; i'm just lame, i figured it out.. just move the mouse :) | 16:17 |
| grawity | LetsGo67: Yes, it can be a USB drive too. | 16:17 |
| grawity | LetsGo67: Even on Linux, OpenSSH lets you store it anywhere, ~/.ssh is just where it looks first. | 16:17 |

| mdeonte | tottto-drummond, Okay, try the command 'sudo chown -R maurice /media/sdc2/' | 17:02 |
| WaywardGeek_ | om26er: The idea is that when you place 8 fingers down, an keyboard appears, warped to fit your finger placement. As you type, it adjusts. | 17:02 |
| Alan502 | rakesh, i dont think there is channel in that language. Anyway, could you explain with the best detail possible what happened the last time it worked? | 17:02 |

| Alan502 | rakesh, well, the easiest way would be formatting, just make a new installation of ubuntu, again. I dont think you had too much data as it was only two days you had used it. | 17:06 |
| mdeonte | Djarrum, what is the output of the command 'ifconfig' use a patebin | 17:07 |

| Guest36833 | hello, I have a problem with grub: I installed ubuntu 9.10 on my SATA drive (/dev/sda) with three partitions (ubuntu on partition one /dev/sda1)... when I set this SATA drive at the first position in the bios booting sequence I get "GRUB loadingRead Error", any suggestions? | 18:44 |

| aliendude5300 | HI, I need some help with a somewhat advanced problem... What I need to do is get a script to reload a webpage every 60 seconds, passing certain values with php arguements, check for any changes, display them to me, and then exit the browser and wait another 60 seconds to repeat. I've tried to do it using watch 60 and wget to get the url, but wget doesn't pass the php parameters in the url to the webserver. It just tr | 18:44 |
| aliendude5300 | ies to retrieve the page, and it doesn't work right... :/ | 18:44 |

| Zargle | should flash now work in firefox? | 18:45 |
| leaf-sheep | daredevilthere: Generally when you plug in USB or any other partitions, they'll be mounted but only root can access them. By doing the command above, you're changing the ownership of the usb/partition/etc to your username. | 18:45 |
| om26er | Zargle: that is the problem | 18:45 |
| rain | Follow-up question: Is there a reason why I shouldn't move that clip art collection to my Pictures folder rather than keeping it in /usr/share/ ? | 18:45 |

| Aethelred | (Maybe this is a better way to ask the question): I'm running 8.10 amd-64. Is there a way to get Flash working (in Firefox 3.x) without having to use nspluginwrapp? | 19:06 |

| williamchan | i just upgrade from ubuntu 8.10 to 9.04, i cant compile anything anymore . when i run make on some projects that worked before, it complains: make: *** No rule to make target `/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.3.3/include/stddef.h', needed by `viewer.d'. Stop. | 19:07 |
| williamchan | make: *** No rule to make target `/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.3.3/include/stddef.h', needed by `viewer.d'. .................. however i am gcc version4.41 now and no longer 4.3.3 ... i am assuming i need to update something? | 19:07 |
| squircle | titanicheart: then I can't answer you any better. try the forums, there are tons of knowledgeable people there. | 19:07 |
| Aethelred | squircle: wow! Thank you for a definitive answer. Does that answer change if I upgrade to 9.04 ? | 19:07 |
| jdolan | hi, can anyone tell me why the hardware sensors applet is not available in the current release? | 19:07 |
| nmvictor_ | steev: the command is what i forgot, was it some /kick nmvictor <password> or what? | 19:07 |

| steev | nmvictor_: just /msg nickserv help | 19:08 |
| ctop | Aethelred: 9.10 is out. why would you upgrade to 9.04 and not 9.10 | 19:08 |
| om26er | jdolan: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu | 19:08 |
| steev | i believe its ghost though | 19:08 |
| squircle | Aethelred: if you click on that link, there's a simple "click here to install flash" which works on 64-bit ubuntu | 19:08 |
| thevishy | my ubuntu just suddenly logged out and went to text terminal | 19:08 |
| Aethelred | ctop: I guess that to get to 9.10 I'd have to go first to 9.04 anyway. Also, I can think of a few reasons why I might not want to run the latest version yet. | 19:08 |
| ctop | you should do a fresh install rather then upgrade as it can break things | 19:09 |
| thevishy | cant understand why the OS did that to me | 19:09 |
| Dr_Willis | thevishy: X crashed | 19:10 |
| \\`oot | leaf-sheep, Any thoughts? I mean ... Ubuntu recognizes audio, and I get normal fine audio ... just not over HDMI | 19:10 |
| ctop | thevishy: X server crashed | 19:10 |
| thevishy | Dr_Willis, why ? what can be the cause | 19:10 |
| squircle | thevishy: have you tried restarting? | 19:10 |
| ctop | thevishy: what do you logs say | 19:10 |
| Dr_Willis | thevishy: lots of things | 19:10 |
| williamchan | any suggestions? i upgraded from 9.04->9.10 and gcc is looking for glibc-dev in the old path instead of the new upgraded package | 19:10 |
| thevishy | which log should I check - it again asked me to login and I logged into X | 19:11 |
| ctop | williamchan try reinstall glibc | 19:11 |
| nmvictor_ | steev: thanks but nmvictor is not online, i already closed the connection at irssi, how do i revert to nmvictor without closing this session? | 19:11 |
| Aethelred | squircle: Yeah, I've looked at that. But I'd heard that there had been a release of Flash 10 for 64 bit systems that didn't require nspluginwrapper. I've been using nspluginwrapper for years, and flash performance with it has ALWAYS been marginal. | 19:11 |
| steev | nmvictor_: just do /name nmvictor | 19:11 |
| thevishy | if x server crashes shouldnt it just goto terminal in this case it actually asked me to RELOGIN | 19:11 |
| arooni-mobile___ | i'm trying to boot karmic... but i'm not getting a graphical ui. i see in /var/log/messages: "main.c: Unable to contact d-bus: org.freedesktop.dbus.error.spqn.execfailed: /bin/dbus-launch terminated abnormally with the followin gerror: autolaunch error: x11 init failed" | 19:11 |

| Aethelred | ctop: You're advising that I do a fresh install? | 19:11 |
| squircle | Aethelred: the 64-bit flash for linux is 10.1 alpha. i've tried it and it's still very, very buggy. | 19:12 |
| williamchan | ctop: i tried a dpkg-reconfigure but didnt work , iam trying reinstall now | 19:12 |
| thevishy | Dr_Willis, if X crashes the user login session also crashes ? | 19:12 |
| nmvictor_ | steev: sorru for this bother, but i need to join ##java which need identification before joining | 19:12 |

| squircle | rek: sure you can. just change the port ;) | 19:14 |
| nmvictor_ | steev: dint work | 19:14 |
| Aethelred | ctop: so, my problem is that Flash, in Firefox, using nspluginwrapper, isn't performing as well as one might like. You answer is for me to ditch my entire system, with which I'm getting work done every day, and do a fresh install of an OS release two-versions newer than the one I have now. | 19:14 |
| rek | squircle: i did it it doesn't work!!!! | 19:14 |

| Migi32 | maverick, sorry, didn't know that was a frequently asked question | 19:16 |

| rek | external port on ftp is only 21 so | 19:19 |
| rek | ok | 19:19 |
| rek | which application should i have? | 19:19 |
| mneptok | grawity: SFTP is fully encrypted end-to-end. FTP is not. | 19:19 |

| ubottu | mplayer is a media player. It resides in the mutiverse repository and can easily be installed via applications -> add/remove. For codecs try !codecs | 19:19 |

| jmichelsen | williamchan: i mean, its kinda crappy doin it that way, but if its a bug you may be outa luck for now | 20:01 |
| jub369 | i used wine to play it | 20:01 |
| jmichelsen | AegNuddel: the daemon to take IR input from a remote and control other things with it | 20:01 |
| sylr | sylr | 20:01 |
| williamchan | jmichelsen: seems like a lot of stuff to symlink | 20:01 |
| williamchan | jmichelsen: already did two and now referring me to another directory >< | 20:02 |
| Ace42 | jub, I think HALO is supported by playonlinux, which you can get from the ubuntu software centre | 20:02 |
| jub369 | I have a game called Halo i got free from youtube how can i play it on linux when i stat it it goes to the menu but the menu dont show (UBUNTU 9.10 Useing Wine 1.2) | 20:02 |
| AegNuddel | oh weird. My only Ir device is my TV remote. | 20:02 |
| jmichelsen | williamchan: williamchan could mount the new folder in the old folder place | 20:02 |
| === mamia is now known as regex | ||
| SpaceGhostC2C | jub369, the most helpful thing you could do for us and yourself is not to mention where you got pirated software, and just ask us how you can use it. | 20:03 |
| jmichelsen | williamchan: or better, symlink the folder | 20:03 |
| williamchan | jmichelsen: i did symlink folder | 20:03 |
| atarimoe | Question for anyone who might have an idea: I'm trying to install Xubuntu on an old Sony laptop. It won't boot the LiveCD at all even though it can boot DSLinux and BartPE CDs. Should the Alternate install disk work here, or is there another problem? | 20:03 |
| jmichelsen | williamchan: any luck? | 20:03 |
| williamchan | jmichelsen: but multiple folders ... now refrrring to /usr/lib/gcc/.../4.3.3 | 20:03 |

| mezquitale | anyone here installed UnR in a netbook? | 20:03 |
| Ace42 | Spaceghost, I assumed he meant he got it from a promotional offer, as I don't recall youtube offering P2P sharing | 20:03 |
| jub369 | Atarimoe did you format first | 20:03 |
| Seven_Six_Two | I keep getting destination host unreachable | 20:03 |
| guntbert | AegNuddel: do you know that there is a channel for chatter? its #ubuntu-offtopic | 20:03 |
| jmichelsen | williamchan: c++ gives that error? | 20:03 |
| atarimoe | jub369 - yes | 20:04 |
| williamchan | yeah | 20:04 |
| jmichelsen | williamchan: gcc I mean | 20:04 |
| jub369 | ok nvm then | 20:04 |
| williamchan | jmichelsen: make does . so i assume g++ | 20:04 |
| AegNuddel | Well I was trying to get support at first but no one will answer my question | 20:04 |
| RWT_ | hello | 20:04 |
| jmichelsen | AegNuddel: ask again | 20:04 |
| guntbert | williamchan: could it be that the wrong libraries are hardcoded in the make file? | 20:04 |
| ActionParsnip | mmaksimov: -d, --download-only: Download only; package files are only retrieved, not unpacked or installed. Configuration Item: APT::Get::Download-Only. | 20:04 |
| AD7six | are there any general techniques for debugging suspend/shutdown problems (laptop freezes), or e.g it's just disabling /etc/rc scripts and logical deduction | 20:04 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Ace42, there are quite a few "Free Download" to direct downloads for copyrighted software. Youtube is a haven for pirated material these days. | 20:05 |
| ActionParsnip | mmaksimov: was in the man page | 20:05 |
| jub369 | Does Any One Here know how i can install Halo WIthout Wine messing up (Youtube version) when i start it it wont show the main menu of game | 20:05 |
| mezquitale | anyone here installed UnR in a netbook? I'm trying to figure how to create space for ubuntu. | 20:05 |
| jmichelsen | williamchan: sorry, I'm no expert in this area, symlink seemed logical but it may not accept that | 20:05 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ActionParsnip, Dude! Good morning from my side of the world. | 20:05 |
| williamchan | guntbert: checked . only depends on gtkmm-2.4 and i reinstalled that and it stopped complaining about wrong paths for that | 20:05 |
| ActionParsnip | SpaceGhostC2C: howdy | 20:05 |
| mmaksimov | ActionParsnip: thank you, it was my mistake | 20:05 |

| qcjn | hi, where can i see the available apps for 9.10 ? | 20:08 |
| user_ | my computer is hanging while displaying "starting up", how can i debug? im not sure that i have changed anything | 20:08 |
| jub369 | how can i make it so some programs i can hear sound and some i can't like in vista | 20:09 |
| williamchan | which pcakage is the C compiler? as in cc? | 20:09 |
| soycamo | qcjn: through the package manager, go to System > Administration | 20:09 |
| williamchan | is it just gcc? | 20:09 |
| usser | jub369, right click on the mixer icon->sound preferences->applications tab | 20:10 |
| guntbert | AegNuddel: just to clarify: you want a desktop that is bigger than your actual display? | 20:10 |
| qcjn | soycamo: i m using 8.04, and i d like to see what is available for 9.10 | 20:10 |
| usser | williamchan, if all you need is a compiler then yes gcc is the package | 20:10 |
| AegNuddel | yes ... It's 600 vertically and I want 768 | 20:10 |
| usser | williamchan, there's a meta package that also pulls some additional libs etc called build-essential | 20:10 |
| usser | !info build-essential | 20:10 |
| qcjn | soycamo: i know there s a place online | 20:10 |
| ubottu | build-essential (source: build-essential): Informational list of build-essential packages. In component main, is optional. Version 11.4 (karmic), package size 7 kB, installed size 48 kB | 20:10 |
| williamchan | usser: i want to reinstall everything related to cc . how would i go about doing that | 20:11 |
| greezmunkey | Any ideas on why Nautilus would show a non-existent floppy drive on my system? Is this normal after an update? | 20:11 |
| qcjn | soycamo: but can't find it | 20:11 |
| williamchan | usser: including all libs . libc6/everything | 20:11 |
| usser | williamchan, search for gcc in synaptic. dont touch libc though | 20:11 |
| Twinkletoes | What's the equivalent 'update-rc.d' command for *displaying* current startup settings? | 20:11 |
| usser | williamchan, i dont know if you want to reinstall libc, that can cause problems | 20:11 |
| jmichelsen | my lirc wont start, anyone have any pointers? If I start it manually with sudo /usr/sbin/lircd -H dev/input -d /dev/input/event7 -n | 20:12 |
| williamchan | usser: i did an upgrade from 9.04->9.10 and my gcc is f*ed up .... its pointing to the old 4.3 path instaed of 4.4 . i reinstalled some of the libs and it removed some errors but some still remain | 20:12 |
| jmichelsen | my lirc wont start, anyone have any pointers? If I start it manually with sudo /usr/sbin/lircd -H dev/input -d /dev/input/event7 -n it works, but I don't know why the service won't start on its own | 20:12 |
| usser | williamchan, so remove gcc 4.3 altogether | 20:13 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | !patience | jmichelsen | 20:13 |
| ubottu | jmichelsen: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. | 20:13 |
| niriven | Kinda offtopic but, would anyone like a beta key for heroes of newerth? (DOTA like game, 32-bit or 64-bit be linux supported) | 20:13 |

| Luyang | hello | 20:13 |
| Luyang | huge channel guys | 20:13 |

| ubottu | Luyang: 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! | 20:14 |
| jmichelsen | SpaceGhostC2C: just trying to clarify the problem is all :) | 20:14 |
| williamchan | update-alterantive not found . which package is that? | 20:14 |
| williamchan | uuser: 4.3 is already removed | 20:14 |
| williamchan | uusers: update-altenrativeS | 20:14 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | jmichelsen, ah, well have you looked at your init scripts? | 20:14 |
| Luyang | SpaceGhostC2C :) | 20:14 |
| williamchan | uuser: didnt work | 20:14 |
| malajand | hello | 20:15 |
| danniz | is ubuntu packages url down? | 20:15 |
| jub369 | Idk if there is a way but if so were can i get GUI for Linux | 20:15 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | danniz, no sir. | 20:15 |
| malajand | i have a problem to open ubuntu | 20:15 |
| AegNuddel | guntbert? | 20:15 |
| malajand | can someone help me | 20:15 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | jub369, what exactly is your problem friend? | 20:15 |
| IdleOne | danniz: seems so | 20:15 |
| jub369 | i played a game called byond/halp | 20:15 |
| jub369 | *halo | 20:15 |
| jmichelsen | SpaceGhostC2C: I know lirc is a pain and no one wants to deal with it, but want to make my problem as clear as possible. Yes, I am looking at the init script now but it's not giving me too much to go in. I will check /val/run/lirc permissions..thats about all I get from the init | 20:16 |
| Luyang | jub369: startx? | 20:16 |
| jub369 | but i was told i can no longer play it because i have no GUI | 20:16 |
| danniz | ok thought it was me ;\ need to find out what dists the package libmath-calc-units-perl exists on | 20:16 |
| guntbert | AegNuddel: I was researching - not sure if it helps but have a look at xrandr | 20:16 |
| jub369 | when i play it on WINE halos menu no shows and byond is all messed up | 20:16 |
| soycamo | so I guess the only fix for wireless problems for 9.10 is to downgrade? | 20:16 |
| IdleOne | !info libmath-calc-units-perl | 20:16 |
| mmaksimov | danniz, SpaceGhostC2C: Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at packages.ubuntu.com. :( | 20:16 |

| jmichelsen | soycamo: what was the problem? | 20:16 |
| Migi32 | Is Linux/Ubuntu really that virus-proof? What if some hacker sneaked a trojan in a canonical-supported archive? I doubt that every application is checked line by line before being updated | 20:16 |
| jub369 | and i was wondering were i can get GUI for linux | 20:17 |
| user_ | how do i start gnome in ubuntu? im in the recover console | 20:17 |
| greezmunkey | soycamo, what is the problem that you have? | 20:17 |
| SwedeMike | Migi32: no, it's not virus-proof, it's just rare, just like OSX | 20:17 |
| danniz | grr karmic only ;D that's why it didn't work hehe guess I have to install it with perl | 20:17 |
| soycamo | jmichelsen: installed 9.10 on the 2nd partition of my macbook and the wireless won't work | 20:17 |
| IdleOne | danniz: use info libmath-calc-units-perl jaunty | 20:17 |
| yacc | Wondering, should the Karmic alternate install CD be complete? (As in installable without network connectivity?) | 20:17 |
| soycamo | (trackpad is also painfully slow) | 20:17 |
| jmichelsen | soycamo: what have you tried so far? | 20:17 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Migi32, the short answer is no, the long answer is no. | 20:17 |
| IdleOne | !info libmath-calc-units-perl jaunty | 20:17 |
| ubottu | Package libmath-calc-units-perl does not exist in jaunty | 20:17 |
| danniz | !info libmath-calc-units-perl jaunty | 20:17 |
| soycamo | jmichelsen I stared at iwconfig last night but couldn't understand it | 20:18 |
| ubottu | Package libmath-calc-units-perl does not exist in jaunty | 20:18 |
| IdleOne | danniz: seems it doesn't exist in jaunty | 20:18 |
| jmichelsen | soycamo: and, what exactly do you mean won't work, does the wifi card not show up, not connect, not load the drivers? | 20:18 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | jmichelsen, Does it even try to start? Do you have logs? | 20:18 |
| danniz | yah, manuall install it is :) thx guys for the quick responses | 20:18 |
| Tartarus_ | i plug my ethernet in and it says disconnected im running ubuntu 9.10 i never had a problem with internet or wifi on 9.04 last time it worked off the bat on 9.04 | 20:18 |
| mmaksimov | yacc: Positive, alternate cd does install into a complete system without a network. | 20:18 |
| soycamo | jmichelsen it acts as if there's no wireless card so I assume the drivers are missing? | 20:18 |
| usser | Migi32, if such thing as sneaking a trojan in the repos ever happened it would have been quickly discovered, because people actually do audits of their installations. ie ports open, applications installed, traffic coming out/in | 20:18 |

| Tartarus_ | i plug my ethernet in and it says disconnected im running ubuntu 9.10 i never had a problem with internet or wifi on 9.04 last time it worked off the bat on 9.04 | 20:19 |
| jmichelsen | soycamo: lspci | grep wireless | 20:19 |
| Migi32 | usser, they do? would they be able to identify a trojan at work (sending but a few bytes per key-press) | 20:20 |
| jmichelsen | soycamo: if you know something more uniquie to grep for aside from wireless, try that, if you know the manufacture of the wifi card, etc | 20:20 |
| soycamo | jmichelsen aw crap, I have to reboot to see this | 20:20 |
| jmichelsen | soycamo: I'll be here | 20:20 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | jmichelsen, does it say what exactly fails, or no such luck? | 20:20 |
| bjman | its Me | 20:20 |
| guntbert | jmichelsen: grep -i is better suited for soycamo | 20:20 |
| Rewt` | now I know why people get upset with this channel. two of you, instead of offering any help, immediately jumped all over me for what you feel is something I did wrong. Sheesh. | 20:20 |

| SpaceGhostC2C | Rewt: simply just keep it on one line friend. It clutters the channel. | 20:21 |
| usser | Migi32, if not on purpose, it will be discovered by accident. I often run wireshark on my work network for debugging purposes and would probably note strange data going to some strange ip somewhere | 20:21 |
| Tartarus_ | greezmunkey just get damn internet lol | 20:21 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | jmichelsen, you should probably pastebin that silly stuff friend. | 20:21 |
| Tartarus_ | least my ethernet so i can set up my wifi | 20:21 |
| greezmunkey | Tartarus_, Ethernet, or wifi? | 20:21 |
| jmichelsen | SpaceGhostC2C: didnt think it would flow into more than one line :) | 20:21 |

| SpaceGhostC2C | !ot | bjman | 20:22 |
| greezmunkey | ok Ethernet should be pretty easy, are you familiar with networking ubuntu? | 20:22 |
| guntbert | SpaceGhostC2C: :) | 20:22 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | guntbert, it seems we're 1 for 1 | 20:22 |
| linxeh | is it possible to read/write hfs+ disks ? | 20:22 |
| Tartarus_ | greezmunkey kinda normaly my wifi and ethernet worked right after install | 20:23 |
| greezmunkey | Tartarus_, what changed? | 20:23 |
| jmichelsen | SpaceGhostC2C: :) I'm 'locate' ing the log now, see if I can figure out which one is being logged to if any | 20:23 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | linxeh, you can, it's fairly young. You need to compile your kernel for it though. | 20:23 |
| Tartarus_ | greezmunkey idk nothing would running off external hdd change anything? | 20:23 |
| linxeh | SpaceGhostC2C: mmm | 20:23 |
| yacc | mmaksimov, so tell me why Alt-F4 shows me pkgsel failed with error code 1 and some lines about it recommends --fix-missing to me? | 20:23 |
| linxeh | SpaceGhostC2C: what about reading ? | 20:23 |
| jmichelsen | guntbert: you're right, grep -i :) | 20:24 |
| bjman | who is spaceghost | 20:24 |
| greezmunkey | Tartarus_, did you do the install originally using the external drive? | 20:24 |
| phuzion | Good afternoon everyone | 20:24 |
| furythor | evening | 20:24 |

| IdleOne | bjman: if you feel like chatting please join #ubuntu-offtopic this channel is for ubuntu support related discussion | 20:24 |
| guntbert | bjman: please, this is no channel for chatter | 20:24 |
| furythor | phuzion: Here is late evening so | 20:24 |
| yacc | Ok, got the "problem", it also complains about the hashsum not being okay, but then I wonder what ruined it (I did the bittorrent download, so that alone should have checksummed the iso pretty nice). | 20:24 |
| Tartarus_ | greezmunkey, i created a bootable usb using unetbootin onto a 4 gig flashdrive using hte install from there i put the partion in and installed | 20:24 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | linxeh, I said you need to compile your kernel from source with support for HFS+ read and write. Not sure if write is working well with write support, you might need to turn off the journaling from mac.. | 20:25 |
| AegNuddel | hmm noe to figure out which setting to use | 20:25 |
| guntbert | !md5sum | yacc | 20:25 |
| ubottu | yacc: 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 | 20:25 |
| AegNuddel | yies there's a lot | 20:25 |
| linxeh | SpaceGhostC2C: sorry, I misread what you said. I'll give it a miss and copy over the network | 20:25 |
| jmichelsen | SpaceGhostC2C: ya, I can't seem to locate a logfile | 20:26 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | guntbert: the ubottu wiz. :) | 20:26 |
| xsssx | hey | 20:26 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | jmichelsen, so, if you were to use the init script now, does it show failures? | 20:26 |

| linxeh | SpaceGhostC2C: it looks like ubuntu 9.10 has the hfs and hfsplus modules compiled already ? | 20:27 |
| xsssx | i wonder, is there a way to deploy kate under ubuntu | 20:27 |
| CITguy | Does anybody know of an RSS reader that integrates with the new notification system? | 20:27 |
| xsssx | in general can i use a kde app under gnome? | 20:27 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | linxeh, possibly. It just might be possible. | 20:27 |

| jmichelsen | SpaceGhostC2C: ya, but if I run the command on the daemon itself, it works "lircd -H etc etc" but it runs in console. I suppose I could write an init scrip to just run that at boot, but I'd rather figure out why the current init wont start it | 20:27 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | CITguy, I'm not sure that would be the best, but then again I don't know a rss reader that works friendly like with notify yet. | 20:28 |
| guntbert | xsssx: yes, but it will bring in a lot of dependecies | 20:28 |
| greezmunkey | Tartarus_, heh - back | 20:28 |
| yacc | guntbert, the md5sum is okay, so what went wrong? usb-creator? | 20:28 |

| CITguy | Then is there a pidgin plugin to do it? | 20:28 |
| ActionParsnip | yo yo yo | 20:29 |
| guntbert | yacc: I didn't follow, just jumped on the "bad checksum" you mentioned | 20:29 |
| greezmunkey | Tartarus_, open a terminal, type in ifconfig, what do you see? (don't paste the output here...) | 20:29 |
| ActionParsnip | is there a fix for netbook-launcher chewing my CPU prety well?? | 20:29 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | jmichelsen, well you could run the script now and see what happens and then start your quest to autostartdom from there. | 20:29 |
| broreg | I'm getting a authentication with ap timed out using ID 050d:705a Belkin Components F5D7050A Wireless Adapter | 20:29 |
| Tartarus_ | greezmunkey kk | 20:29 |
| ActionParsnip | broreg: did you follow this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Belkin_F5D7050_ver_3000_(Ralink_rt73_driver) | 20:30 |
| jmichelsen | SpaceGhostC2C: create a script with the commands like I mentioned? not using the script installed by lirc? | 20:30 |
| yacc | well, it complains about the wrong hash on xulrunner*.deb when i try to install from usb (iso md5 is ok) | 20:30 |
| xsssx | 20:30 | |
| broreg | ActionParsnip: no, as it states it works out of the box on karmic | 20:31 |
| Cowfishy | I've been having a problem with my network where my computer is connected but when I try to use the internet it is extremely slow | 20:31 |
| guntbert | yacc: can you boot from the usb? there is another "check" option in the menu | 20:31 |
| soycamo | So if I check lspci it sees a network adapter, but if I do iwconfic there are no wireless devices | 20:31 |
| ActionParsnip | broreg: well its not working out of the box, i'd follow it | 20:31 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | jmichelsen, you can try it that way. I like fleshing problems out and getting them to work from where they are. I'd encourage you to at least look closely at the init script as it is and see if you can determine if that is the problem. But another init script to see if it works at all is a good idea as well. | 20:31 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | yacc, sudo apt-get install xulrunner | 20:32 |
| ScoobyDoo | I'm trying to copy something to the users home DIR, But when my .deb gets executed it runs as root, So it attempts to copy to /home/root/, How can i get it to copy to the normal user's home folder? | 20:32 |
| jmichelsen | SpaceGhostC2C: ya, i don't care how its set up as long as it works. It does work if I run the commands/options on the bin so I'll write a simple init script to start it that way I guess | 20:32 |
| jasonfunk | I remember reading about someone who got an ipod touch 2g to sync with ubuntu without jailbreaking? Does anyone know if this is true? | 20:33 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | jmichelsen, won't the failures to start at bootup bother you? | 20:33 |
| shintai | ScoobyDoo, cant you cp <file> /home/userdir ? | 20:33 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | jasonfunk, it's possible. Quite likely. | 20:33 |

| jmichelsen | SpaceGhostC2C: I was going to create my own boot init script, just with the command line args in there or somethin | 20:34 |
| yacc | guntbert, the check media option complains that I have no cdrom which is quite correct | 20:34 |
| naip | Whenever i try to run ndiswrapper, it gives me a "can't find ndiswrapper version error". Any ideas? | 20:35 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | jmichelsen, but what of the previous script? It will still run unless you remove/overwrite it. | 20:35 |
| guntbert | yacc: ouch, this I didn't expect | 20:35 |
| Ryann | How can I remove Open Office from Ubuntu? | 20:36 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Ryann, sudo apt-get remove --purge openoffice* | 20:36 |
| jmichelsen | SpaceGhostC2C: it doesnt log anything, halt boot, or start so I guess it wouldnt cause any problems to leave it there, aside from clutter right? I mean, like I said I'd prefer to get it working like it should, but don't know where to go from here. I'v been working on it for almost 24 hours | 20:36 |
| Cowfishy | does anyone have an idea why my wireless connection is suddenly so slow? | 20:37 |
| losha | ScoobyDoo: copying something to a directory and executing a .deb file are two completely separate things. What exactly is it that you're doing? | 20:37 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | jmichelsen, If you should get the script to work as you want, I'd not forget to disable or remove the non-working one. | 20:37 |
| Ryann | SpaceGhostC2C: E: Couldn't find package. - that's what it returned. | 20:37 |
| jmichelsen | SpaceGhostC2C: will do, thanks for the pointers | 20:37 |
| phuzion | Ok, so I'm trying to install VMWare Server on my server without a GUI (Ubuntu Server 9.04) and when it asks for the kernel headers, it keeps failing, here's what it's saying. http://pastebin.com/d45b5445c Any ideas? | 20:37 |
| naip | How do i fix an error on ndiswrapper that says "Error: unable to find a version of ndiswrapper!" | 20:38 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Ryann, try using synaptic package manager to remove it. | 20:38 |

| stanner | I would like some help with networkmanager not letting me configure my wireless cards. | 20:38 |
| IdleOne | naip: reinstall it? | 20:38 |
| naip | I reinstalled it about 6 times | 20:39 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | phuzion, do you have a previous install of it? | 20:39 |
| phuzion | It hasn't finished successfully, it keeps failing at the same spot, but it sees the bins and man files and everything, so it thinks that it's a full install | 20:39 |
| gmachine_24 | I downloaded a copy of 9.10 via bittorrent andI thought it was going to be an iso file - instead it was a .rar file - I burned the files to a CD but it would not boot the computer. | 20:39 |
| losha | phuzion: my first guess is that it's a version mismatch between your kernel and the vmware version.... | 20:39 |
| gmachine_24 | I mean I extracted the files and then burned them to a CD. | 20:40 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | gmachine_24, did you unrar the file? | 20:40 |
| Ryann | Whenever I try to install or uninstall anything, I get this error. http://pastebin.com/m2696da4d | 20:40 |
| gmachine_24 | SpaceGhostC2C yeah sorry I didn't mention that. | 20:40 |

| greezmunkey | Tartarus_, you still there? | 20:40 |
| Ryann | Can anyone help me with that? | 20:40 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | gmachine_24, no worries. It seems you must have gotten a b0rked torrent. Have you looked at the ubuntu site and gotten a torrent from them, or a partner? | 20:40 |

| blood | usser, mv folder/location new/folder/location ??? | 20:44 |
| guntbert | EsatYuce: the purpose of gparted is manipulation of partitions, not mounting them | 20:44 |

| SpaceGhostC2C | gmachine_24, then you have a .iso laying around? try this http://www.linuxjournal.com/video/updating-isos-zsync | 20:46 |
| Slart | Duskao: I'm not really sure.. have you tried right clicking the clock in the top right corner? | 20:46 |
| Duskao | I tried to set it through the prefrences on the time, but didn't work. | 20:46 |
| guntbert | phuzion: you may want to look for VBoxHeadless | 20:46 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | gmachine_24, or you can just redownload the newest .iso | 20:46 |
| Duskao | thats exactly what I did. | 20:46 |

| Slart | Duskao: hmm.. odd.. that usually works for me.. are you sure it's not just ignoring it since the clock is too much off? or it's trying to fix it slowly? | 20:47 |
| gmachine_24 | that link someone posted http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso.torrent you should take a look at it.... it's a RAR file.... | 20:48 |

| Ryann | Whenever I try to reinstall or install something, I get this error - http://pastebin.com/m44035f4a but when I try to remove that file, because that's the file that it mentions every time, It doesn't let me. Anyone, help please? | 20:58 |
| javier__ | HOla | 20:58 |
| guntbert | SpaceGhostC2C: don't worry - I meant it as I said it :-) | 20:58 |
| stanner | greezmunkey: it scanns just fine and prints out a list of all the wireless networks | 20:58 |
| Bam_Bam | JoeLinux, I'm afraid not :D | 20:59 |
| greezmunkey | stanner, ok, have you tried bringing the interface up manually? | 20:59 |
| Bam_Bam | Slart, I could use reiser4 | 20:59 |
| JoeLinux | its easier for me to use wine, and the programs i know | 20:59 |
| willvarfar | is there a way to reset/recreate all the default panels in the desktop manager? (I've deleted one deliberately, and regret it) | 21:00 |
| JoeLinux | so can someone help me with wine? | 21:00 |
| Slart | Bam_Bam: ah.. that might be an option too | 21:00 |
| stanner | greezmunkey: like connecting to the wifi using iwconfig? | 21:00 |
| sivang | anybody know how I can change the auto login feature? | 21:00 |
| e66 | nothing related astrology!! | 21:00 |
| Bam_Bam | JoeLinux, the only problem is that wine fails from time to time | 21:00 |
| sivang | which binary is responsible for that ? | 21:00 |
| stanner | greezmunkey: or just running ifconig eth1 up | 21:00 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | JoeLinux, that's somewhat of a odd thing to do. What exactly is your problem? | 21:00 |
| guntbert | !panels | willvarfar | 21:00 |
| ubottu | willvarfar: To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 21:00 |
| * sivang lost his panel and needs to copy its config from another user | 21:00 | |
| stanner | greezmunkey: cause ifconfig confirms it is up | 21:00 |
| greezmunkey | stanner, what does your wireless adapter show up as in ifconfig, ir iwconfig? | 21:01 |
| willvarfar | thx guntbert! :D | 21:01 |

| SpaceGhostC2C | JoeLinux, You're just creating a situation where corruption or just plain fail could happen. I prefer to use applications in their native environment. | 21:03 |
| P_Kable | I had libstdc++5 on 9.04, I just upgraded to 9.10 and it's gone, I need it for a package though... Anyone ? | 21:03 |
| JoeLinux | i like my own theme, i need to change these colors | 21:03 |
| Slart | P_Kable: hmm.. looks like you need to find a package somewhere else.. I'm not sure what the consequences might be if you install a package for an older version of ubuntu.. it might break things.. | 21:03 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Slart, don't abuse the bot. try doing this /msg ubottu !find libstdc++5 and then just message the bot from there. | 21:03 |

| greezmunkey | stanner, yes, or is it removable | 21:36 |
| JoeLinux | can someone assist me with xchat config? i want to "clone my mirc" as much as possible | 21:36 |
| Matisse | Flare183, well, -r does the wrong thing, let me have another try before rebooting :) | 21:36 |
| KindOne | JoeLinux: you can run mIRC through Wine on ubuntu | 21:36 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | gawry, that is a php error. Possibly look for some support from php. Unless it's ubuntu specific. | 21:37 |
| Flare183 | Matisse: sudo rmmod pcspkr | 21:37 |
| stanner | ok i have two. the one that is the broad com is internal mini pci or something and the exteranl is a ralink usb | 21:37 |
| ActionParsnip | KindOne: kinda pointless due to the huge selection of native clients | 21:37 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | JoeLinux, it seems weird to me, to install ubuntu but when things get a little confusing, install windows programs... | 21:37 |
| JoeLinux | KindOne, can wine run it from the xp drive it is already on? | 21:37 |
| gawry | SpaceGhostC2C: Thats the best ive found until now... http://chrisblunt.com/blog/2009/05/01/php-fixing-mismatched-canaries-how-to-remove-suhosin-from-debianubuntu-packages/ | 21:37 |
| KindOne | JoeLinux: Yes | 21:38 |
| furythor | is there equalizer in 9.10 like there was in 9.04 ? | 21:38 |
| JoeLinux | SpaceGhostC2C, i need time to learn everything in linuxland | 21:38 |
| ActionParsnip | hanosha: install it and you can add you account to it | 21:38 |
| === dYz is now known as dYz_ | ||
| SpaceGhostC2C | gawry. I'll look and see if I can get some info | 21:38 |
| Flare183 | ActionParsnip: He doesn't know how..... | 21:38 |
| JoeLinux | cant do it all at once ( i dont think) | 21:38 |
| stanner | greezmunkey: ok i have two. the one that is the broad com is internal mini pci or something and the exteranl is a ralink usb | 21:38 |
| greezmunkey | stanner, I get it, ifdown the internal for now., then do the tail -f /var/log/syslog to see what it does... | 21:38 |
| hanosha | how I can add the icq :S | 21:38 |
| JoeLinux | KindOne, when i tried to add to to wine, the xp drive is not there | 21:39 |
| ActionParsnip | hanosha: on the main pidgin window click accounts -> manage accounts | 21:39 |
| hanosha | I download it | 21:39 |
| greezmunkey | stanner, when you remove, and re-insert... | 21:39 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | JoeLinux, one possibility is try and learn the native applications in linux. that sounds like a good solution. | 21:39 |
| heath_ | anyone good with mythbuntu? I'm having dvd playback issues | 21:39 |
| ActionParsnip | hanosha: to install pidgin run: sudo apt-get install pidgin | 21:39 |
| JoeLinux | SpaceGhostC2C, i plan to , just not all today | 21:39 |
| hanosha | yea :D I know but I put my acc and pass word didn't work | 21:39 |
| binMonkey | i just installed eclipse with aptitude and when i start it i get these messages in a window: http://paste.ubuntu.com/336148/ | 21:39 |
| Flare183 | hanosha: ICQ from the icq website doesn't work, so you need to use pidgin. | 21:39 |
| ssi | help I have a problem with dual boot I set the set up manager to "0" seconds by mistake and now cant get in the other operatinng system, can any one help | 21:39 |
| ActionParsnip | heath_: install libdvdcss2 from the medibuntu repo | 21:39 |
| Flare183 | binMonkey: remove eclipse and download the one from the website. | 21:39 |
| hanosha | I didn't download it its for windows :S | 21:40 |
| hanosha | I think :S | 21:40 |
| conb123 | Does anyone know of the gtk+ command line flag for setting window height and width? | 21:40 |

| KindOne | JoeLinux: i dont know, try mounting the Windows drive ? | 21:40 |
| hanosha | oh :D | 21:40 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | JoeLinux, then I suggest you run ubuntu from inside a VM while using windows. | 21:40 |
| hanosha | how to run the wine and be happy :S ? | 21:40 |
| arooni-mobile___ | i'm trying to boot karmic... but i'm not getting a graphical ui. i see in /var/log/messages: "main.c: Unable to contact d-bus: org.freedesktop.dbus.error.spqn.execfailed: /bin/dbus-launch terminated abnormally with the followin gerror: autolaunch error: x11 init failed". here is dmesg: http://pastebin.com/f6b5c903d | 21:40 |
| binMonkey | Flare183: is there something wrong with the version in the repos? | 21:40 |
| * Flare183 doesn't understand why people would like to use wine and windows, its crap. | 21:41 | |
| ActionParsnip | hanosha: you may need to use a different login server, they may have changed the system | 21:41 |
| KindOne | SpaceGhostC2C: that is a good idea, but the preformance would be laggy | 21:41 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | hanosha, that is somewhat oxymoronic. | 21:41 |
| JoeLinux | well i am trying at least :) | 21:41 |
| hanosha | I wanna delete it ts not useful :S | 21:41 |
| ActionParsnip | Flare183: +1 especially when native apps exist which will run smoother | 21:41 |
| Flare183 | binMonkey: No, not from what I know, but the one on the site works better. | 21:41 |
| binMonkey | Flare183: ok. thanks a lot! | 21:41 |
| stanner | greezmunkey: ok | 21:41 |
| Ryann | Okay, I thought force removing dpkg would resolve my problem of not being able to install and uninstall things - I was wrong, can anyone help? | 21:41 |
| Flare183 | ActionParsnip: Exactly. | 21:41 |
| JoeLinux | windowsland has so many "issues", trying to get away from it | 21:41 |
| KindOne | Flare183: Wine is a great program.... without it, i would not use Linux | 21:42 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | JoeLinux, then I suggest you learn one step at a time. Here is a hint from a 4-year ubuntu user, don't use wine. I have it for exaclty one purpose: World of Warcraft. | 21:42 |
| Flare183 | KindOne: Use a VirtualMachine | 21:42 |
| ActionParsnip | JoeLinux: install xchat and you will be fine. Ditch mirc, its a windows app | 21:42 |
| JoeLinux | :) | 21:42 |
| stanner | greezmunkey: http://pastebin.com/m5ea6cbd5 | 21:42 |
| KindOne | Flare183: I do use a VM.... | 21:42 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ActionParsnip, he's having troubles configuring it. | 21:42 |
| Flare183 | Wine can't handle heavy winblows programs. | 21:42 |
| furythor | or pidgin will also do nice | 21:42 |
| ActionParsnip | SpaceGhostC2C: configuring mirc? | 21:42 |
| JoeLinux | ok talking in xchat now, i'll try to clone my mirc, again | 21:42 |
| KindOne | Pidgin for IRC is a JOKE.... | 21:43 |
| Bam_Bam | ActionParsnip, xchat | 21:43 |
| hanosha | how to remove the wine | 21:43 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ActionParsnip, no, xchat. | 21:43 |
| Ryann | Okay, I thought force removing dpkg would resolve my problem of not being able to install and uninstall things - I was wrong, can anyone help? | 21:43 |
| ActionParsnip | KindOne: it works.... | 21:43 |
| * Flare183 hates Winblows with a passion. | 21:43 | |
| SpaceGhostC2C | hanosha, sudo apt-get remove wine --purge | 21:43 |
| IdleOne | SpaceGhostC2C: he is probably having trouble finding similar scripts to his mirc ones. | 21:43 |
| ActionParsnip | SpaceGhostC2C: gotcha | 21:43 |
| Bam_Bam | Flare183, I hate that most of my games run on only it... | 21:43 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | IdleOne, from what I've heard it's a problem with initial configuration. | 21:43 |
| ActionParsnip | SpaceGhostC2C: i thought it was autoconfigured for noobs to log straight on to freenode.... | 21:43 |
| Flare183 | Bam_Bam: And that's where the VM comes in. | 21:43 |
| KindOne | ActionParsnip: but mIRC has A LOT more features for IRC than Pidgin | 21:43 |
| baudsmoke | hello everyone | 21:44 |
| KindOne | baudsmoke: Hi | 21:44 |
| Flare183 | !hi | baudsmoke | 21:44 |
| ubottu | baudsmoke: 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! | 21:44 |
| Bam_Bam | Flare183, virtualbox or something else? The audio kinda sucks coming through vbox | 21:44 |
| ActionParsnip | KindOne: true, but it still does what irc is, sends and recieves text from a server | 21:44 |
| Flare183 | Bam_Bam: Um you have to install the correct drivers and everything for it work perfectly. | 21:44 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | KindOne, and it's a windows application. It's rather silly to install a operating system whose main giving-point is freedom and beer and the like, and then install some windows application... | 21:44 |
| hanosha | its not working to delete it :S | 21:44 |
| Ryann | SpaceGhostC2C: Where can I get dpkg from - I force removed it. | 21:44 |
| Matisse | Is there a way to use links in manpages? (The other commands which are listed at "see also" f.e.) | 21:45 |
| hanosha | I tried but nothing happen | 21:45 |
| Bam_Bam | Flare183, more than just the extensions? | 21:45 |
| Flare183 | Bam_Bam: Yup | 21:45 |
| Ace42 | modprobe can't find mmc_core - where do I get it? | 21:45 |
| KindOne | ActionParsnip: put look at all the features of mIRC, you got the scripts too add, and all that.... all pidgin has is just the noob feachers | 21:45 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Ryann, good god man. ActionParsnip, will you help me help Ryann? | 21:45 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | KindOne, yes, but I use Xchat. | 21:45 |
| Bam_Bam | Flare183, you mean for whichever specific card type I choose in the config? are there guides on the vbox site? | 21:46 |
| ActionParsnip | KindOne: what if a user has no need for such functionality? Surely that will bloat the client. | 21:46 |
| ActionParsnip | SpaceGhostC2C: sup? | 21:46 |
| baudsmoke | Problem. When I erase files I need to go in to the Terminal because it takes a split second to delete files. When I use the mouse (in Thunar) it takes several minutes or hours to delete something. Is there a way I can set Thunars 'Delete' to Terminals 'rm' ?? | 21:46 |
| Flare183 | Bam_Bam: Choose the ICH7, and yes there are guides on the net for such things. | 21:46 |
| Ryann | SpaceGhostC2C: Thought it would help - made things worse. | 21:46 |
| JoeLinux | any xchat themes? or make my own? | 21:46 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ActionParsnip, Ryann removed dpkg. Help? | 21:46 |
| hanosha | is there other ubuntu support ? | 21:47 |
| Flare183 | baudsmoke: Depends on what and how your deleting it. | 21:47 |
| * Flare183 facepalms | 21:47 | |
| will-s | xchat-gnome is better, I think | 21:47 |
| Flare183 | hanosha: Do you want me to do it for you? | 21:47 |
| ActionParsnip | SpaceGhostC2C: grab the deb from the web, you may be able to boot to live cd to chroot. Might help | 21:47 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | JoeLinux, at the risk of sounding like a jerk, to help expedite the situation try googling. Here is a hint: xchat features | 21:47 |
| Flare183 | will-s: xchat != xchat-gnome. | 21:47 |
| === el_compA__ is now known as el_compA | ||
| baudsmoke | Flare183. A simple 'unlink' is all that is needed. | 21:47 |
| will-s | Flare183: I know, the interface is slightly different | 21:48 |
| ActionParsnip | SpaceGhostC2C: or compile it from source to get dpkg, then install dpkg using THAT dpkg | 21:48 |
| ActionParsnip | JoeLinux: http://t0x.in/xchatthemes.html | 21:48 |
| will-s | Flare183: It is better than xchat | 21:48 |
| will-s | I think | 21:48 |
| angelus | JoeLinux what do you mean by clone mIRC ??? | 21:48 |
| ActionParsnip | hanosha: #kubuntu #xubuntu | 21:48 |
| Flare183 | will-s: that's because xchat-gnome is for totally new users. | 21:48 |
| JoeLinux | i have been trying google, cant even fidn the home page, too much crap in the way | 21:48 |
| amites | Has anyone setup a modeline for a 22" wide monitor? I'm having trouble getting one to work with xorg | 21:48 |
| baudsmoke | I think xfce is overwritting the file trying to make it a secure delete. I dont want that. | 21:48 |
| angelus | as far as themes go, X-chat uses the default GTK+ theme | 21:48 |
| JoeLinux | angelus set up xchat similar to my mirc | 21:49 |
| JoeLinux | angelus colors, windows, protection | 21:49 |
| Ryann | SpaceGhostC2C: Any ideas on what I do? | 21:49 |
| JoeLinux | ActionParsnip, thanks | 21:49 |
| Bam_Bam | Flare183, I've got a ICH AC97 is that the same? | 21:49 |
| Flare183 | Bam_Bam: That's exactly what I was talking about. | 21:49 |
| baudsmoke | angelus, Have you tried using Virtualbox to boot Windows XP? | 21:50 |
| Flare183 | Bam_Bam: That's the one you need. | 21:50 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Ryann, I'm gonna be a douche and ask you to ask ActionParsnip really nicely for help. | 21:50 |
| ActionParsnip | check pm SpaceGhostC2C | 21:50 |
| angelus | baudsmoke no i havent | 21:50 |
| ActionParsnip | SpaceGhostC2C: not a douche either :D | 21:50 |
| angelus | JoeLinux as far as colours go, Windows>Preferences>Colours tab MIGHT be what you want .... | 21:51 |
| overtherainbow | What dictionary application comes bundled with ubuntu? | 21:51 |
| baudsmoke | angelus, I was using Virtualbox to run Windows XP and mIRC was working fine. I havent tried with Windows 7 yet. | 21:51 |
| Flare183 | overtherainbow: gnome-dictionary | 21:51 |

| Crash8308_ | it is a gui program | 22:13 |
| ActionParsnip | dassouki: not sure, looks like theres some gconf stuff to rummage with which I am unfamiliar with. You can manually mount it with: sudo mkdir /media/SD; sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/SD -t vfat -o uid=1000,rw | 22:13 |

| IdleOne | iceroot: I don't think he is trolling, just stuck in windows method and can't seem to take time to learn | 22:13 |
| iceroot | Crash8308_: i would use "gnome-terminal -e gksudo yourporgramname" as a shortcut in the panel | 22:13 |
| jrib | jonz_: the package should be in /var/cache/apt/ | 22:13 |
| JoeLinux | why woudl openoffice not do i wonder | 22:14 |
| iceroot | IdleOne: thats normally the problem here:( | 22:14 |

| Crash8308_ | any way to have it not prompt me for the password? | 22:14 |
| NightEyes | I have a video editing program but the problem is on previous releases of recordmydesktop I didn't have this problem. I don't know why they added it and I want to know if there is the option to have it removed without video editing and without getting nitty gritty | 22:14 |
| jonz_ | jrib, is that where all packages downloaded by aptitude go? | 22:14 |
| jrib | jonz_: yeah | 22:14 |
| Crash8308_ | like a cli switch or option that i can put the password in there? | 22:14 |
| anythingj | ActionParsnip: If I start "screen" with trickle limits... will all the wget commands within that screen be subject to those limits? | 22:14 |

| dassouki | ActionParsnip: thanks :D | 22:15 |
| ActionParsnip | anythingj: not sure, try t | 22:15 |

| jonz_ | jrib, awesome, this is sick! i had no idea. so when you click "mark for reinstallation" in synaptic, are you just having it reinstall from those packages? or does it download a fresh copy to resinstall? | 22:15 |
| ActionParsnip | dassouki: manual mount m'lad. Easy stuff | 22:15 |

| Crash8308_ | look slike gksudo asks me for the password | 22:16 |
| iceroot | Crash8308_: yes | 22:16 |
| Crash8308_ | versus sudo which did not | 22:16 |
| Crash8308_ | which is perfect | 22:16 |
| Crash8308_ | as long as it asks me | 22:16 |

I could never get the screen to come back to normal and would have to restart. I though maybe I needed a new graphics driver, so following instructions from a website I installed EnvyNG and used it to load another | 22:29 |

| arghh2d2 | zebastian: fam looks for newley attached hotplug devices like usbdrives | 22:49 |
| zebastian | arghh2d2: so why does it take away my desktop? | 22:50 |
| Oilut | how do i activate root user? | 22:50 |
| zebastian | there's no wallpaper | 22:50 |
| zebastian | no icons | 22:50 |
| arghh2d2 | zebastian: something in lxde is set to check that fam is running | 22:50 |
| Out_Cold | Oilut, you should use sudo | 22:50 |
| Out_Cold | !sudo | 22:50 |
| 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) | 22:50 |
| zebastian | arghh2d2: yes but how does that relate to no wallpaper, no desktop icons, and getting stuck when i try log out, what do you recommend? | 22:51 |
| Oilut | Out_Cold: i need to install a program from the internet with adobe air. Isnt it better to login with root and then go back to my user? | 22:51 |
| arghh2d2 | zebastian: i dont know, you're probbly, i'v never been impressed with lxde, prefer to just run openbox and build my own environment. | 22:51 |
| zebastian | arghh2d2: is there a way to install fam? should it be running already? | 22:51 |
| arghh2d2 | zebastian: it depends on how you run lxde | 22:51 |

| Out_Cold | Oilut, if you are unfamiliar with using root it's highly recommended that you use sudo... you can do the exact same stuff as root | 22:52 |
| macondo | Out_Cold: I want to plot a function, not just draw it. | 22:52 |
| maco | VSpike: yep | 22:52 |
| zebastian | arghh2d2: not meaning to be annoying, but can you tellme what hal is | 22:52 |
| robbmunson | Oilut: root is strongly discouraged, sudo does everything that root can do...but safer :) | 22:52 |
| VSpike | maco: just copy the contents to the local package cache? | 22:52 |
| zebastian | if i type fam on a terminal will it do any goood? | 22:52 |
| maco | zebastian: hardware abstraction layer. going away in lucid | 22:52 |
| arghh2d2 | zebastian: if you can plug in a flash drive an easily mount and access it, then you dont need to mess with hal or fam. | 22:53 |
| Out_Cold | macondo, oh sorry lol misunderstood | 22:53 |
| Amgine | using removable media (usb/firewire hard drives)?? | 22:53 |
| maco | VSpike: theyre in /var/cache/apt/archives/ just put on a flash drive and copy over | 22:53 |

| JoeSomebody | ardchoille, thx | 23:05 |
| RyanPridgeon | cant remember the name of the package in ubuntu server edition that gets me the xfce desktop environment | 23:06 |
| ardchoille | yw | 23:06 |
| lyrae | Out_Cold, will that work just on ubuntu channel or globally? | 23:06 |
| ardchoille | RyanPridgeon: xubuntu-desktop ? | 23:06 |
| VCoolio | zebastian: ok; apparently lxde uses pcmanfm by default; I suspect it drew over the existing desktop and that one is still there too; you'll see if you logout; doesn't matter much | 23:06 |
| RyanPridgeon | something like ubuntu-xfce, cant google atm because im stuck in terminal and links is hell | 23:06 |
| Out_Cold | lyrae, i think it's local | 23:07 |
| RyanPridgeon | tankyou :) | 23:07 |
| lyrae | JoeSomebody, Out_Cold ok, for global, use /set irc_conf_mode 1 | 23:07 |
| zebastian | VCoolio: cann you say that again only end userish | 23:07 |
| RyanPridgeon | LEAVE | 23:07 |
| lyrae | that will turn it off in all channels :) | 23:07 |
| RyanPridgeon | CLOSE | 23:07 |
| geirha | RyanPridgeon: /part | 23:07 |
| seven2 | my wifi card is off. how do you turn it on? i tried googling it but i'm unable to find a solution. | 23:07 |
| zaxecivobuny | I am trying to reinstall my video drivers, and was given the following link with instructions to follow:https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 23:07 |
| ericdb | My CPU scaling monitor only seems capable of setting the frequency on cpu1...it can't lock cpu0 at high speed. Any ideas? | 23:07 |

| KaliKo | hello | 23:07 |
| AlaskanWonder | geirha: I'm mounting the Ubuntu ISO as virtual CD to the virtual CD drive. | 23:08 |
| zaxecivobuny | The problem is that all of the instructions from that page involve enabling the restricted drivers in the driver manager, and my video drivers don't show up on that list | 23:08 |
| RyanPridgeon | JOIN #elysian_shadows | 23:08 |
| zaxecivobuny | the only restricted drivers in that list for me are for my wireless card | 23:08 |
| VCoolio | zebastian: like nautilus in gnome, I think pcmanfm manages your desktop with icons and stuff in lxde; but I thing it drew your lxde desktop stuff on top of the one you just had and which you didn't want; it doesn't matter, but when you logout you may notice that other one for a short moment too; that's as end-userish as I can get ;) | 23:08 |
| zebastian | VCoolio: thank you | 23:09 |
| JoeSomebody | lyrae, seems to have taken effect on mine without exit | 23:09 |
| geirha | AlaskanWonder: Oh, but just feed vbox the iso, don't use any third-party tools. | 23:09 |
| zaxecivobuny | Did anyone who can help me see my question? | 23:10 |

| phoenixz | Hi there, I was upgrading an ubuntu computer from 8.10 to 9.04 over an SSH line (its the computer of my dad on the other sided of the world) and then the internet cut out, right during package install... the computer then was restarted.. Now, the computer boots to a prompt, My dad had to manually configure ifconfig and then I can login over SSH again but the update-manager won't update anymore, and sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure | 23:17 |
| phoenixz | -a also doesn't work due to packet failures.,. I just want to leave this compu with 9.04, how can I do this? | 23:17 |
| ikonia | pbk: arm arch is not intel arch - you'd need to use an ubuntu port | 23:18 |
| AnonnyMouse | hi guys. is there an ubuntu disk tool that'll give me a graphical representation of bad sectors on a disk. I have a large drive with some bad sectors somewhere in the middle, so I want to try & partition around it | 23:18 |

| ortsvorsteher | pbk, try an lsb_release -a than you will know which ubuntu it is | 23:20 |
| ikonia | pbk: Which ubuntu arm port are you using ? | 23:21 |
| pbk | why lsmod is empty? I could login from a serial console | 23:21 |

| pbk | board manufacturer gave me | 23:23 |
| pbk | armdesigner.com | 23:23 |
| ikonia | pbk: ok - you may need to contact them, as ubuntu only has 2 arm images, and they are for specific boards | 23:23 |
| ikonia | pbk: /away not at desk | 23:24 |
| ikonia | oops | 23:24 |
| pbk | yes this also specific board but the manufacturer supports 3.5 inch apparently lcd withoout issues | 23:24 |

| jrib | VirusTB: grub or grub2? | 23:29 |
| S7UMPY | just asking! cause........google will answer a lot of the questions people ask in here. | 23:29 |
| jrib | hanosha: #ubuntu is for help with ubuntu programs | 23:29 |
| VirusTB | jrib, good question | 23:30 |
| furythor | jrib: do you know if live CD loads anything from existing hard disk partitions ? | 23:30 |
| Rewt` | androver: you'll just need to reinstall it | 23:30 |
| VirusTB | jrib, how do i tell what grub I have? | 23:30 |
| jrib | S7UMPY: yeah | 23:30 |
| ActionParsnip | androver: you can perform a P2V using vmware, its not an ubuntu question so is offtopic | 23:30 |
| S7UMPY | sigh..... | 23:30 |
| jrib | VirusTB: what version of ubuntu? | 23:30 |
| VirusTB | jrib well when i run "sudo update-grub" it workds | 23:30 |
| VirusTB | jrib, 9.10 | 23:30 |
| furythor | since I am trying to identify how well my mouse and keyboard does work with linux | 23:30 |
| VCoolio | /leave | 23:30 |
| jrib | VirusTB: did you upgrade to 9.10 or fresh install? | 23:30 |
| Jeruvy | androver: better question for #vmware | 23:30 |
| jrib | furythor: it uses a swap partition if you have it I believe | 23:31 |
| androver | Rewt`: last time I tried to do that, the install media wouldn't work...it somehow detects that you're trying to install it in a VM. and I'm not really planning on using VMWare...probably gonna use virtualbox if possible | 23:31 |
| ActionParsnip | androver: we do it loads at work but its offftopic here | 23:31 |
| hanosha | why the extra not working in my desktop :S | 23:31 |
| ActionParsnip | hanosha: extra what? | 23:31 |
| androver | ActionParsnip: ok, thanks, i'll ask in #vmware (or #virtualbox if it exists) | 23:31 |
| jrib | hanosha: what do you mean by "the extra"? | 23:31 |
| djp_ | if i receive a "snd_alloc..." message in relation to an audio app, is this logged anywhere (/var/log/? for instance) or would i need to run a debug option for the specific app to find out more information relating to the error? | 23:31 |

| hanosha | ActionParsnip what is it ? do u know ? | 23:36 |
| jrib | Guest39870: why do you want to know? | 23:36 |

| linuxguy2009 | Can anyone say for sure if the major integration of pulseaudio in 9.10 is due to development changes in the Gnome project or if this was a decision made by Ubuntu devs? Cause I have seen fedora 12 with gnome and it seems to be lacking the volume panel applet as well when pulseaudio is removed from the system. So Im assuming this has been a Gnome change and therefore its a cross distro change for better or worse. | 23:42 |
