| isolat3dsh33p | guys, I got the grub-pc update. Now the dialog defconf appear asking me to choose option. Which should I choose? "Keep the local version currently installed"? | 00:04 |

| holmser | to watch some streaming videos | 00:04 |

| con6 | hi, good morning... | 00:05 |
| tn90 | i configured wlan via wap_supplicant.conf, referenced to it via interfaces.conf and /etc/init.d/networking restart does activate the connection. The Problem I encounter occurs when i reboot. shouldn't the script for networking start be executed? I think it is because wlan is not established when dhcp tries to get an IP. Is there a way to have a delay between wlan init and dhcp. or to make dch | 00:05 |
| Billiard | isolat3dsh33p: if you didnt make any changes manually you should install the mantainers version | 00:05 |
| LetsGo67 | Istarnes? | 00:05 |
| tn90 | dhcp to recheck after a while | 00:05 |
| holmser | just downloaded the svn repo | 00:05 |

| isolat3dsh33p | apocalypt: it's the "What would you like to do about grub?" question. I don't know which to choose | 00:06 |
| holmser | do I need to sudo a "make install" command? | 00:06 |
| apocalypt | isolat3dsh33p: do what Billiard said. it's the safe way if u did change anything in grub | 00:07 |
| isolat3dsh33p | Billiard: I'm not sure I did, but I have dual boot. I don't have to reconfigure it for dual boot right? | 00:07 |

| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 00:44 |
| jrib | apache: wait 10-15 minutes before repeating | 00:44 |
| roygbiv | apache did you just upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10? | 00:44 |
| Billiard | apache: you cant, so dont | 00:44 |
| goncalo | <Billiard> how can i aplly that theme | 00:44 |
| ardchoille | !nick > box_ | 00:44 |
| ubottu | box_, please see my private message | 00:44 |
| apache | roygbiv, i have 8.10 | 00:45 |
| Billiard | goncalo: im not 100% sure, you should be able to download the theme then drag it onto your theme selection dialog i think | 00:45 |
| morpeth | im sitting at the host now. I can ssh to it ok. it just doenst recognize any changes to sshd_config | 00:45 |
| VCoolio | goncalo: if there is a gtk theme inside that works the normal way; for the window borders you need emerald installed and use emerald theme manager | 00:45 |
| goncalo | <Billiard> ill try | 00:45 |
| Billiard | morpeth: pastebin your ssh config files | 00:45 |
| ^workman^ | morpeth: you are at the console correct? not connected remotely? | 00:45 |
| apocalypt | goncalo: choose the right for your system depends on gnome or kde. sometimes there is a readme file where u can see how to install that theme | 00:46 |
| mMezquitale | morpeth, i had the same issue, the problem was I had a port open in a config file | 00:46 |
| VCoolio | goncalo: and apply emerald as your window decorator; fusion-icon is a useful tool for that, or set it in your compiz window decoration plugin | 00:46 |

| Billiard | jmigel: which protocol? | 00:49 |
| jmigel | Billiard... messenger? | 00:49 |
| lostin | jrib I am looking now. trism, thankyou | 00:49 |

| mMezquitale | lol | 00:49 |
| jmigel | Billiard... oh sorry i thought msn is messenger... its msn | 00:49 |

| ^workman^ | darn | 00:50 |
| apocalypt | jmigel: i guess msn is supported in pidgin | 00:50 |
| jmigel | apocalypt yes its been working fine for years | 00:50 |
| Shwack | ^workman^: I appreciate the try for a link to google but what i am looking for is human interaction with somebod who has done it before and can tell me what is necessary and what is not | 00:50 |
| BalSak | hi guys. got a new ALIX device shipped with a CF card & pf pre-installed. pulled the card & making a backup via dd over my ubuntu desktop, but I'm seening some weird things in the filesystem: references to "bsd magic" & the filesystem seems non-standars (i.e only a partion #4 is visible). | 00:51 |
| BalSak | any advice plase? | 00:51 |
| Billiard | patriconway: you need to install that package with a different command, one sec | 00:51 |
| goncalo | Billiard how can i play windows games here? | 00:51 |
| mMezquitale | Shwack, sounds like you want to browse the forums or you want someone to hold your hand in the room, try searching the forums and if you need help then come back, pointing you at the right direction usually helps you the most though | 00:51 |
| ZykoticK9 | patriconway, libdvdread4 | 00:51 |
| Billiard | goncalo: some games work with wine, check the wine appdb for supporting programs | 00:51 |
| ^workman^ | Shawck: its' pretty easy, host(server), username, password... what else do you need to know? | 00:51 |
| goncalo | ty | 00:52 |
| patriconway | thanks zykoticK9 | 00:52 |
| ^workman^ | Shawck: click and explore =)... you are using the GUI client correct? | 00:52 |
| Shwack | mMezquitale: you assume i haven't already tried but thank you anyway | 00:52 |
| jmigel | I figure i have to upgrade from pidgin 2.4.1 to something newer... how come ubuntu wont let me upgrade to newer apps without changing animal names? | 00:52 |
| Billiard | patriconway: you might want /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh | 00:52 |
| ^workman^ | Shwack: click and explore =)... you are using the GUI client correct? | 00:53 |
| VCoolio | jmigel: they want to ensure stability; add a repo with the version you want, if available | 00:53 |
| arand | patriconway: package name is the same afaik, but you need to run the specific script contained in the installed libdvdread4, unless you add the medibuntu repo. | 00:53 |
| BalSak | could it be a bug somewhere | 00:53 |
| BalSak | ? | 00:53 |
| migg137 | how do i make my backlight dimer thanks | 00:53 |
| apocalypt | goncalo: games which aren't supported by wine maybe u can play with CrossOver Games oder Cedega. but u need to buy it. | 00:53 |
| ermac0 | I cant seem to remove Adobe Flash 9, i have done sudo apt-get remove adobeplugin-nonfree and then downloadded the .deb file to install flash 10. That was successful however while loading checking about:plugins it shows both active...I disable flash 9 through the addons options, and then the adobe flash test website states that i dont have flash installed..So its not recognizing my flash 10..and someone still finding flash | 00:53 |

| jmigel | VCoolio can i browse apps in repo's somewhere you think? | 00:53 |
| goncalo | ok | 00:54 |
| ermac0 | Browser in use is firefox... | 00:54 |
| goncalo | CS it seems to work very fine | 00:54 |
| Shwack | ^workman^: yes, All i really need to know is Client hostname and domain | 00:54 |
| Shwack | i just want to be sure before i drive all the way home and find out i did something wrong... | 00:54 |
| ^workman^ | shwack: well, if you don't already know that info, then terminal server client isn't going to help | 00:54 |
| VCoolio | jmigel: paunchpad.net is a good place to start; or just google "ubuntu pidgin repository"; be sure not to install from an obscure source | 00:54 |
| VCoolio | jmigel: launchpad.net that is | 00:54 |
| mMezquitale | jmigel, ubuntu does let you upgrade applications, you can install/uninstall/upgrade whichever application you want | 00:55 |
| migg137 | how do i make my backlioghts dimmer | 00:55 |
| ^workman^ | shwack: do you know if the remote host is part of a domain? do you know what the DS name is? | 00:55 |
| Billiard | migg137: did you check the power options? | 00:55 |
| jmigel | VCoolio thanks ill check it out... maybe ill just wait untill the april LTS and reinstall... | 00:55 |
| mMezquitale | migg137, youre using a laptop? | 00:55 |
| Oblat | I'm getting this error when I'm starting up vnc: http://paste-it.net/public/ga8e8f5/ How can I fix this error? | 00:56 |
| Shwack | ^workman^: I will find out and get back to you - one moment | 00:56 |
| goncalo | Is it possible to use daemon tools or image disc creators | 00:56 |
| apocalypt | Oblat: did u start it with sudo? | 00:57 |
| jmigel | mMezquitale although what you say is true, you make it seem simple and that is misleading | 00:57 |
| Oblat | apo, no but i will try right now with sudo | 00:57 |
| Billiard | goncalo: you dont need daemon tools to mount images, you can just mount them with the mount command | 00:57 |
| migg137 | nMezquitale, yes | 00:57 |
| ^workman^ | shwack: open the terminal client then - fill out the computer: field, protocol = RDP, username = ?, password: = ? Domain: ? (fill out the ? with your info for that host). | 00:57 |
| goncalo | oh, i dont know anything about those commands. can u give me a link to read more about it? | 00:57 |
| lzrdking | can anyone help me with SANE? it works fine locally, but when i try to connect over my network, i see the connection come in, but XSANE says "No devices available" | 00:58 |
| Billiard | !mount | 00:58 |
| ubottu | mount is used to attach devices to directories. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount | 00:58 |
| _ope_ | anyone tell me why i get 2 X sessions load when it boots and one says it cant detect my video card settings and once i close it the other one loads fine? | 00:58 |
| ^workman^ | goncalo: man mount | 00:58 |
| Shwack | ^workman^: thank you, I just need to find out where to make sure i have correct info for domain is all | 00:58 |
| goncalo | !mount | goncalo | 00:58 |
| ubottu | goncalo, please see my private message | 00:58 |
| Oblat | apo, that made me go into the root user. I want to load it with my other user account. | 00:58 |
| apocalypt | goncalo: if u are a beginner on linux/Ubuntu try this www.ubuntuguide.org | 00:58 |
| ^workman^ | shwack: are you sure the system is part of a domain? | 00:58 |
| Shwack | ^workman^: I am not sure, no | 00:59 |
| mMezquitale | jmigel, it all depends on what you consider "simple". Some applications you can uninstall and install using a .deb package from their website, others you have to compile yourself, the point im trying to make is that it is quite possible and using a method that you prefer, you have to start at some point | 00:59 |
| Oblat | apocalypt, that made me go into the root user. I want to load it with my other user account. | 00:59 |
| ^workman^ | shwack: ok, then are you sure you have an account on that system? in either case? | 00:59 |
| migg137 | mMezquitale, yes | 00:59 |
| Shwack | ^workman^: yes, indeed, fresh ubuntu isntall (new to linux hence the major noobness) | 00:59 |
| _ope_ | can anyone help plz? | 00:59 |
| apocalypt | Oblat: then user need the permission to start vnc | 01:00 |
| epinky | !ask | _ope_ | 01:00 |
| ubottu | _ope_: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 01:00 |
| ^workman^ | shwack: ubuntu has nothing to do with your use of the Terminal Service Client | 01:00 |
| _ope_ | i did ask a question | 01:00 |
| _ope_ | i was refering to my question | 01:00 |
| Billiard | _ope_: you dont need to | 01:00 |
| goncalo | so confusing | 01:00 |
| Oblat | apocalypt, i was able to start it before normally but after i did upgrade , update and few other minor things it started giving me these errors | 01:00 |
| ^workman^ | shwack: the Terminal Service Client is an application to connect to a remote "windows system like - windows XP, windows Vista, etc.") | 01:00 |
| _ope_ | k sorry | 01:01 |
| Oblat | but anyway how can i give permission to my other user account to start vnc? | 01:01 |
| Billiard | goncalo: many times you can just click an iso image and choose mount... | 01:01 |
| goncalo | GOOOD NEWS | 01:01 |
| ^workman^ | !elaborate | shwack | 01:01 |
| ubottu | shwack: Please elaborate, your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel) | 01:01 |
| Shwack | ^workman^: ...oh, well that pretty much defeats everything i wanna do | 01:01 |
| Shwack | one moment iw ill elaborate | 01:01 |
| Shwack | What I would like to do is control my Ubuntu 9.10 I am on now, from my parent's Windows Computer. | 01:02 |
| MyGame | :p | 01:02 |
| qwyeth | How can I selectively remove users from the GDM greeter list without deleting accounts in Karmic? | 01:02 |
| Shwack | I was going to bring an Ubuntu Live CD home, so I could connect | 01:03 |
| ^workman^ | Shwack: ok, control from a GUI? or from a command line? | 01:03 |
| Billiard | Shwack: cli or gui control? | 01:03 |
| Shwack | GUI | 01:03 |
| Oblat | How can i give permission to my other user account to start vnc? | 01:03 |
| moymoy | how do i download the deltas of a file through HTTP? is it even possible? | 01:03 |
| goncalo | hmm how do i instal progrmas? C:\Program Files --> doesnt work? | 01:04 |
| apocalypt | Oblat: try to take these users in the vnc group | 01:04 |
| Billiard | moymoy: deltas? | 01:04 |
| Billiard | goncalo: which programs? | 01:04 |
| qwyeth | moymoy, that could happen only if the server is configured to send it to you | 01:04 |
| moymoy | Billiard: download only the difference, like how rsync does it | 01:04 |
| Oblat | It sounds easy when you say it but I have no clue on how to do what you just said. | 01:04 |
| qwyeth | there's no way for you to locally calculate the diff without downloading the whole file | 01:04 |
| goncalo | <Billiard> i downloaded megaupload manager, and installed it o C:\Program files now i cant run it | 01:04 |
| Billiard | goncalo: what happens when you try to run it? | 01:05 |
| apocalypt | i use Kubuntu but i guess in Ubuntu there is also a policy kit | 01:05 |
| apocalypt | look for | 01:05 |
| mMezquitale | Oblat, I would look at the groups of both users and make sure both users are in the same groups | 01:05 |
| Shwack | ^workman^: Billiard: I'm not sure if you saw my response, I want to use GUI - and I an bring a live CD home to be using Ubuntu on both computers if it would help | 01:05 |
| mMezquitale | goncalo, youre using ubuntu? | 01:05 |
| Oblat | How can I do that? I'm not using a GUI only putty. | 01:05 |
| moymoy | qwyeth: how does canonical do it with the ISO releases, with ZSYNC? | 01:05 |
| apocalypt | ok Oblat there is a file | 01:05 |
| goncalo | unnable to read mega manager ddatabase | 01:06 |
| apocalypt | Oblat: /etc/group | 01:06 |
| Billiard | Shwack: ya i saw, use vnc | 01:06 |
| Oblat | ok | 01:06 |
| Shwack | Billiard: k, thank you | 01:06 |
| apocalypt | Oblat: there u will find the Groups | 01:06 |
| mMezquitale | Oblat, learn to manage users using the command line, ive never done that so I cant help you there | 01:06 |
| jrib | goncalo: are you familiar with how software works on ubuntu? | 01:06 |
| goncalo | no, not at all | 01:06 |
| jrib | !software | goncalo | 01:06 |
| ubottu | goncalo: A general introduction to the ways software can be installed, removed and managed in Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoftwareManagement - See also !Packages, !Equivalents | 01:06 |
| Billiard | goncalo: not All windows programs will work | 01:06 |
| Oblat | ok i will try to open the file in putty and edit it | 01:07 |
| Billiard | goncalo: did you check the wine appdb to see if that program is supported? | 01:07 |
| Billiard | or working rather | 01:07 |
| jrib | goncalo: you may want to try "tucan" | 01:07 |
| tzanger | Billiard: any ideas re packages being held back for no obvious reason? | 01:07 |
| apocalypt | Oblat: there are alot of commands to manage users. try to look for a list of basic commands linux | 01:07 |
| alankila | tzanger: try to specifically update one of those with "apt-get install <packagename>". It will generally tell you why it fails to update it | 01:08 |
| alankila | or force changes that allow it to be updated, as it may also be | 01:08 |
| Oblat | apocalypt: yea i was just looking that up now | 01:08 |
| lzrdking | hey, what can i do with a verizon DSL modem? they never had me return it when i cancelled service | 01:08 |
| Billiard | tzanger: try apt-get dist-upgrade | 01:08 |
| qwyeth | moymoy, zsync apparently checks the files you have locally, then when you make the http request the remote server feeds you the ones that don't match | 01:08 |
| tzanger | alankila: unfortunately it doesn't | 01:08 |
| Billiard | lzrdking: paperweight | 01:08 |
| Billiard | doorstop | 01:08 |
| tzanger | Billiard: same thing... these packages are being held back... blah blah | 01:08 |
| tzanger | this is a box that was 9.04 -> 9.10 dist-upgraded | 01:09 |
| mikubuntu | anybody have this behavior recently? all my desktop saved files have disappeard from the desktop; they are still available in the filesystem folder named 'desktop', but they no longer appear on the desktop screen. | 01:09 |
| tzanger | it does work fine except for this recent thing | 01:09 |
| tzanger | (the upgrade was last month I think) | 01:09 |
| mMezquitale | Oblat, cat /etc/group |grep username1 <---that will show you the groups that username1 is a part of | 01:09 |
| apocalypt | Oblat: especially look for "Users, Groups and Permissions" | 01:09 |
| lzrdking | oh... see i have a cable modem and its getting me free internet so i was wondering if the DSL modem could do that too | 01:09 |
| Billiard | tzanger: try manually specifing the new packages to install? | 01:09 |
| Shwack | mikubuntu i ahd that but when I pressed refresh in the Desktop folder they all showedup on the Desktop again | 01:09 |
| tzanger | Billiard: manually specifing one of the held back packages doesn't give a reason, just says the following ones are being held back <same list> | 01:09 |
| Billiard | lzrdking: you would have to still have service from them | 01:10 |
| Oblat | ok | 01:10 |
| Billiard | tzanger: what exactly did you try? | 01:10 |
| mikubuntu | Shwack: don't understand, where did you refresh? | 01:10 |
| qwyeth | moymoy, so that only works because it's going into the iso and treating it like a filesystem and comparing directory information | 01:10 |
| tzanger | Billiard: sudo apt-get upgrade bind9-host | 01:10 |
| Shwack | Places > Desktop - Refresh in Window | 01:10 |
| mMezquitale | tzanger, is that how you can upgrade just one package? | 01:11 |
| jrib | mMezquitale: no, it's not | 01:11 |
| Shwack | mikubuntu Relaod button in the Window next to Back and Forward buttons | 01:11 |
| tzanger | jrib: it's not? | 01:11 |
| mMezquitale | jrib, how can you upgrade just one package? | 01:11 |
| jrib | tzanger: nope, you are confused about what the upgrade command does | 01:11 |
| jrib | mMezquitale: apt-get install PACKAGE | 01:11 |
| tzanger | jrib: it's not often that I try to upgrade just one ... heh thanks | 01:12 |
| mMezquitale | jrib, i know how you install just one package but how do you upgrade or update just one package? | 01:12 |
| jrib | tzanger: read « man apt-get » about the difference between "upgrade" and "dist-upgrade" (the command you ran is juts "upgrade", package name does nothing) | 01:12 |
| jrib | mMezquitale: apt-get install PACKAGE | 01:12 |
| mikubuntu | schwack, nope that din't work for me | 01:12 |
| vivid | or dpkg -i PACKAGE | 01:12 |
| paul424 | hey UI am on slackware, now I want to have those packages downloaded https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk2hs/0.10.1-3ubuntu2/+build/1320224 what command I shouyld use to acces this repostiory ? | 01:12 |
| tzanger | raindog: ok | 01:12 |
| tzanger | thanks | 01:12 |
| Shwack | mikubuntu sorry to hear that :( i suppose you already restarted too.... sucks - good luck man | 01:13 |
| tzanger | jrib: still no idea why upgrade's holding the packages back but install seems to do it | 01:13 |
| dtownhero | mMezquitale: installing the package automatically installs the latest greatest version | 01:13 |
| Oblat | apocalypt: what do i edit in the file specifically? | 01:13 |
| jrib | tzanger: did you read about the difference between "upgrade" and "dist-upgrade"? | 01:13 |
| mMezquitale | paul424, this is ubuntu support, for lucir support try #ubuntu+1 | 01:13 |
| simurghen | how do i see the specs of my pc from cli, what make/brand/model it is, what cpu/model/frequency, how much ram/type, how much hdd/speed/model | 01:13 |
| mikubuntu | thanks anyways, it actually happend to me on my friends laptop last month in costa rica after i installed ubuntu | 01:13 |
| jrib | simurghen: lshw | 01:13 |
| qwyeth | paul424, slackware isn't designed to use apt, which is the package tool used by ubuntu and debian | 01:13 |
| mMezquitale | dtownhero, what if you already have the package installed and you want to only upgrade just one package? | 01:13 |
| arooni-mobile2 | hi folks! having trouble mounting /dev/md1 as my home partition. md1 is a raid 1-0 device across two hard drives. running karmic. i changed nothing except for the locatoin of the PC (moved it without dropping it). now when i try to mount /dev/md1 i see: "EXT3-fs: unable to read spuerblock; mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/mda1" .... what should i do now? | 01:14 |
| qwyeth | paul424, so the repositories will not be compatible | 01:14 |
| mikubuntu | anybody have this behavior recently? all my desktop saved files have disappeard from the desktop; they are still available in the filesystem folder named 'desktop', but they no longer appear on the desktop screen. | 01:14 |
| jrib | mikubuntu: is anything on your desktop? Can you right click on your desktop? | 01:14 |
| Oblat | apocalypt: what do i edit in the file specifically? | 01:14 |
| Billiard | arooni-mobile2: could try fsck | 01:14 |
| apocalypt | Oblat: try this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC | 01:14 |
| goncalo | how can i adjust my nvidia driver settings? | 01:14 |
| mMezquitale | mikubuntu, can you go to the files and check the permissions? are the files links? | 01:15 |
| jrib | goncalo: what settings exactly? | 01:15 |
| Billiard | goncalo: nvidia-settings ? | 01:15 |

| ae86-drifter | can someone please help, i cannot run modprobe fuse | 01:15 |
| goncalo | yes | 01:15 |

| ae86-drifter | it says module fuse not found, fatal error | 01:15 |
| Telnet | Hello, I recently decided to try ubuntu after being with Gentoo for a year or so. I was reading up on setting up support for my wifi card (I have a bcm4328 card not covered under the bcm43xx driver). I could easily setup ndiswrapper and all that, but I had read something about how only b43-fwcutter was needed. I have it installed and the card is accurately represented on the lspci, but I still can't use it. | 01:15 |
| Oblat | apocalypt: I opened up the file /etc/group, what do i have to edit there? | 01:15 |
| hdtdi | ok i made something stupid.. i dont know why i wanted to remove a file from my /var/www but instead i removed the whole /var/www with -rm -rf /var/www .. any way to undone that? | 01:16 |
| brent__ | Hey | 01:16 |
| apocalypt | Oblat: is there a group vnc? | 01:16 |
| jrib | hdtdi: don't use -r or -f if you don't need them... | 01:16 |
| jrib | !recover | hdtdi | 01:16 |
| ubottu | hdtdi: Some tools to recover lost data are listed and explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery - Recovering deleted files on !ext3 filesystems can be virtually impossible, although methods that might work is some cases are described at at http://www.xs4all.nl/~carlo17/howto/undelete_ext3.html and http://projects.izzysoft.de/trac/ext3undel | 01:16 |
| Billiard | ae86-drifter: dont think there is a module called fuse then | 01:16 |
| switch10_ | any good programs to control a Windows GUI from Ubuntu? | 01:16 |
| mikubuntu | jrib and mMezquitale, no nothing happens when i right click on desktop, and well, i guess each thing i had on the desktop is actually a link to its location in the filesystem | 01:16 |
| Oblat | apocalypt: no, should i make a group for vnc? | 01:16 |
| Billiard | switch10_: vnc | 01:16 |
| apocalypt | no | 01:16 |
| jrib | mikubuntu: run nautilus | 01:16 |
| mikubuntu | jrib, and .. ? | 01:17 |
| goncalo | How to open .rar? | 01:17 |
| jrib | mikubuntu: and report result? | 01:17 |
| jrib | !rar | goncalo | 01:17 |
| ubottu | goncalo: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free | 01:17 |
| epinky | !bcm43xx | telnet | 01:17 |
| ubottu | telnet: Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx | 01:17 |
| Billiard | goncalo: install unrar package from the package manager | 01:17 |
| mMezquitale | mikubuntu, youre using karmic? | 01:17 |
| switch10_ | Billard: will check it out thanks!! | 01:17 |
| Tiders | Is there anyway to hide the toolbar at the top of a specific window? | 01:18 |
| konsumer | if i install ubuntu or xubuntu on a laptop and decide to install another OS later, can i completely delete the partion with say, a windows xp installer? | 01:18 |
| apocalypt | Oblat: maybe u should install and configure vnc new using the help page | 01:18 |
| Telnet | !bcm43xx | 01:18 |
| ubottu | Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx | 01:18 |
| mikubuntu | yes, but i upgraded instead of doing fresh install | 01:18 |
| Billiard | konsumer: it should let you yes | 01:18 |
| goncalo | it doesnt allow me to click on it :S | 01:18 |
| konsumer | Billiard: 'should' is the word im scared of | 01:18 |
| fattom | can anyone think of a reason that a wireless card on Karmic might only want to connect to Linksys routers? The card connects to my 54GL just fine, but not any non-Linksys router. | 01:18 |
| Oblat | apocalypt: the thing is that it was working perfectly before i did upgrade and update, and svn up. I started it on my other user account by doing x11vnc -create. | 01:19 |
| Billiard | konsumer: if the windows installer doesnt for some reason you can remove all partitions with a linux live cd | 01:19 |
| ae86-drifter | i am getting FATAL: Module fuse not found, i cannot install fuse ..! | 01:19 |
| mMezquitale | konsumer, youll be able to delete it with any OS installer, I personally have a machine just for testing, it has windows on one partition and I leave some space for whatever distribution i want to test | 01:19 |
| Billiard | ae86-drifter: what is your ultimate goal? | 01:19 |
| goncalo | it doesnt allow me to click on it :S | 01:19 |
| ae86-drifter | setting up sshfs | 01:19 |
| Billiard | goncalo: what click what? | 01:19 |
| Billiard | ae86-drifter: what happens when you try to mount a sshfs? | 01:19 |
| goncalo | on the rar package to install | 01:19 |
| ae86-drifter | module fuse not found | 01:20 |
| mikubuntu | jrib, don't know what to report, i typed nautilus in a terminal, and the nautilus filesys opened | 01:20 |
| Billiard | ae86-drifter: paste bin your command and the output | 01:20 |
| ae86-drifter | ok | 01:20 |
| jrib | mikubuntu: well now see if the problem persists or if anything changed | 01:20 |
| Billiard | goncalo: opened synaptic package manager? | 01:20 |
| Oblat | apocalypt: thank you for the help | 01:20 |
| goncalo | hmm synaptic?? | 01:20 |
| i_is_broke | what is the command to kill pulseaudio? | 01:20 |
| Billiard | goncalo: yea, its in the menu adminstration > package manager, or something similar | 01:21 |
| vivid | it will just repsawn | 01:21 |
| mikubuntu | jrib, voila, they're all back .. but WHY? | 01:21 |
| apocalypt | Oblat: maybe u got corrupt packages. try sudo apt-get -f install | 01:21 |
| jrib | mikubuntu: nautilus handles that stuff, it crashed for some reason | 01:21 |
| fattom | i_is_broke - sudo /etc/init.d/pulseaudio kill | 01:21 |
| fattom | replace kill with restart or start to turn it back on | 01:21 |
| mikubuntu | jrib, it would be nice to toggle that on and off, is there a way? | 01:22 |
| jrib | mikubuntu: toggle what exactly? | 01:22 |
| konsumer | Thanks for the help fellas :) | 01:22 |
| konsumer | have a good day | 01:22 |
| mikubuntu | jrib, having all that mess i have on my desktop on and off | 01:22 |
| fattom | can anyone think of a reason that a wireless card on Karmic might only want to connect to Linksys routers? The card connects to my 54GL just fine, but not any non-Linksys router. | 01:23 |
| mikubuntu | so if i'm showing off my kook ubuntu system to an 'unbeliever' it looks all slick | 01:23 |
| Billiard | fattom: crappy card, crappy drivers | 01:23 |
| mikubuntu | :P | 01:23 |
| mikubuntu | kool, not kook | 01:23 |
| mikubuntu | hahaha | 01:23 |
| fattom | Billiard - the drivers work absolutely perfectly with Linksys routers, though. Doesn't sound like a driver issue exactly. | 01:24 |
| plitter | lets say i just added a path in my .bashrc how do i make the shell update without exiting the shell? | 01:24 |
| goncalo | very nice!!! | 01:24 |
| goncalo | thanks | 01:24 |
| jrib | mikubuntu: you can use toggle the gconf key that has nautilus show_desktop on and off (use gconftool-2 command) | 01:24 |
| gogeta | yawn | 01:24 |
| fattom | plitter - source ~/.bashrc | 01:25 |
| plitter | fattom: thanks:) | 01:25 |
| mikubuntu | hmm, don't understand | 01:26 |
| Coded1 | can anyone tell me the emacs command for dispatching sharks with lasers ? | 01:26 |
| anom01y | hi, I am stuck | 01:26 |
| Coded1 | possibly an apt-get | 01:26 |
| jrib | Coded1: apt-get install funny-jokes? | 01:26 |
| anom01y | I have infront of me my friends computer who has ubuntu 9.04 | 01:27 |
| anom01y | and the hard drive is acting up or something. | 01:27 |
| gogeta | anom01y well stuck with what | 01:27 |
| Coded1 | jrib, apt returns an error about dependancys | 01:27 |
| anom01y | last time it ran it wanted a manual fsck check | 01:27 |
| BlueG | I'm having random freezes with 9.10 on a Dell Dimension 4500s that aren't happening on any other computers I have installed it on. The cursor continues to move, but nothing else works. Switching virtual terminals, caps lock, numlock, can't ssh in, or get a reply to ping. Any suggestions? | 01:27 |
| Coded1 | dependencies | 01:27 |
| jrib | Coded1: user-related I'm sure ;) | 01:27 |
| anom01y | gogeta, now this computer doesnt even boot I get error 13 and error 25 when trying to load grub | 01:27 |
| gogeta | anom01y: be a good idea to let it | 01:28 |
| Tiders | Is there any way to run a program without a toolbar if so what is the command to add to it "--command?" | 01:28 |
| Coded1 | jrib, i just updated ! | 01:28 |
| goncalo | cant play css | 01:28 |
| anom01y | so, with a live cd in it can I do a fsck on that hd | 01:28 |
| anom01y | and fix the prob ? | 01:28 |
| goncalo | it just do not open the server | 01:28 |
| gogeta | anom01y: sounds like the fs nuked itsself | 01:28 |
| Billiard | anom01y: you can fsck on a live cd | 01:28 |
| mikubuntu | oh, well, checking out, thanks guys | 01:28 |
| anom01y | ok good thanks | 01:28 |
| goncalo | how can i get that thing that transforms your desktop in a cube with 6 desktops? | 01:29 |
| Coded1 | goncalo, are there lasers involved? | 01:29 |
| Coded1 | maybe sharks? | 01:30 |
| fattom | goncalo - it's part of compiz. It's installed by default in recent versions. | 01:30 |
| goose | I only have Ubuntu installed on my PC, no other OS. But GRUB is still installed on my PC, and it freezes at the grub package anytime I try and update. Can I sudo apt-get remove grub, and be safe, since linux is my only OS? | 01:30 |
| jrib | !icons | mikubuntu | 01:30 |
| lzrdking | desktop-cube | 01:30 |
| ubottu | mikubuntu: Want to see volume/trash icons on the desktop? Go to /apps/nautilus/desktop in gconf-editor (GNOME) or go to http://kudos.berlios.de/kf/kisimlar/tipsntrix.html#showtrash (KDE) | 01:30 |
| fattom | goncarlo - it's part of compiz. It's installed by default in recent versions. | 01:30 |
| goncalo | i got the 9.1 or 9.04 version | 01:30 |
| goncalo | i dont got it | 01:30 |
| gogeta | Billiard: dunno last time i had a fs fail the hdd died | 01:30 |
| plitter | fattom: do i have to do it in every window i have open or is it enough to do it in one? | 01:30 |
| jrib | mikubuntu: you want to toggle the show_desktop key. Of course, you want to learn to use gconftool-2 instead of the gconf-editor to do it | 01:30 |
| lzrdking | 9.10, not the same as 9.1 | 01:30 |
| anom01y | gogeta, Billiard , its taking forever to boot the live cd, giving me tons of errors about ata1 (ata1.00 status: {DRDY ERR} ect.. | 01:30 |
| fattom | goncarlo - use synaptic to get the compiz package | 01:30 |
| gogeta | anom01y: sounds ike he installed from a bad iso | 01:31 |
| mikubuntu | jrib, thx i will check out the page | 01:31 |
| mkquist | new install no x server problems - alli get is cl login | 01:31 |
| fattom | then run the gconf-editor | 01:31 |
| fattom | plitter - likely in each one. | 01:31 |
| gogeta | anom01y: guess he gets a freee upgrade to 9.10 | 01:31 |
| fattom | each one is a separate shell | 01:31 |
| anom01y | gogeta, no the linux install was good for a year, but he did something to his computer that really messed it up | 01:31 |
| plitter | fattom: k, thanks anyways:) | 01:32 |
| gogeta | anom01y: ata errors are hardware realted then | 01:32 |
| anom01y | so now I am fixing it from at my house | 01:32 |
| Hawaiian_Eskimo | quick non-technical question: what happens when we run out of letters for ubuntu releases (zany zebra)? | 01:32 |
| fattom | e | 01:32 |
| zerq | start over probably? | 01:32 |
| gogeta | anom01y: check all his drives and how there connected | 01:33 |
| Axizor | Hey all | 01:33 |
| dukz_ | + | 01:33 |
| zerq | like hurricanes, idk lol | 01:33 |
| Flannel | Hawaiian_Eskimo: We likely roll over to AA. | 01:33 |
| goose | I only have Ubuntu installed on my PC, no other OS. But GRUB is still installed on my PC, and it freezes at the grub package anytime I try and update. Can I sudo apt-get remove grub, and be safe, since linux is my only OS? | 01:33 |
| fattom | We'll name them in Greek. | 01:33 |
| Hawaiian_Eskimo | fattom: good idea | 01:33 |
| vivid | goose, no, you need a bootloader | 01:33 |
| fattom | you really need Grub. Otherwise it won't work. | 01:33 |
| fattom | Or some other bootloader | 01:33 |
| Axizor | Quick question with Evolution Mail: I set up a IMAP Gmail account but all the graphics in the email aren't being displayed... Is there an easy way to fix this? I have v. 9.10 | 01:33 |
| goncalo | i have compiz installed, and now? | 01:33 |
| lzrdking | Axizor: go to View->show images | 01:34 |
| lzrdking | or something similar | 01:34 |
| apocalypt | goncalo: u need compizconfig-settings-manager too | 01:34 |
| fattom | can anyone think of a reason that a wireless card on Karmic might only want to connect to Linksys routers? The card connects to my 54GL just fine, but not any non-Linksys router, so I don't think it's a driver issue. | 01:34 |
| Telnet | Hey I followed the b43-fwcutter guide from !bcm43xx and I added blacklist ssb to the proper file "/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf." Unfortunately on reboot it still loads (From lsmod) | 01:35 |
| gogeta | Flannel: LOL | 01:35 |
| goncalo | done | 01:35 |
| goncalo | and now? | 01:35 |
| goose | vivid: is there a dpkg command or something I can use to reocnfigure/reinstall/fix grub? | 01:35 |
| Flannel | gogeta: What? | 01:35 |
| gogeta | Flannel: who let you in hear | 01:35 |
| apocalypt | goncalo: open the manager and look for the cube config | 01:36 |
| vivid | goose, i believe sudo update-grub is the preferred method | 01:36 |
| Billiard | goose: you can try grub-install | 01:36 |
| lzrdking | i remember lilo | 01:36 |
| apocalypt | !compiz | goncalo | 01:36 |
| goose | vivid: that locks up too, have to kill it with Ctrl+C | 01:36 |
| ubottu | goncalo: Compiz (compositing window manager), for a howto see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager and more help #compiz | 01:36 |
| Axizor | Thank you lzrdking, I am trying Ubuntu out in VmWare and just wanted to know. I appreciate the help. | 01:36 |
| goncalo | idk where to find the manageR? | 01:36 |
| lzrdking | Axizor: how to do it automatically, i have no idea | 01:37 |
| epinky | fattom: dumb question, is your AP broadcasting your SSID? | 01:37 |
| lzrdking | epinky: not dumn, mine do not broadcast | 01:37 |
| fattom | on this router, yes | 01:37 |
| lzrdking | dumb | 01:37 |
| switch10_ | goncalo: system>settings | 01:37 |
| paul424 | qwyeth: I can use an converter ... just tell me how to do ..erght | 01:37 |
| fattom | that's such a weak security setting that I don't even bother. | 01:37 |
| apocalypt | goncalo: System -> Preferences -> CompizConfig Settings Manager | 01:37 |
| switch10_ | oh yea preffs | 01:38 |
| fattom | Each of the other brand routers I've tried also broadcast. | 01:38 |
| Telnet | Hey I followed the b43-fwcutter guide from !bcm43xx and I added blacklist ssb to the proper file "/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf." Unfortunately on reboot it still loads (From lsmod) | 01:38 |
| goncalo | i got only system, not preferences | 01:38 |
| lzrdking | you need to install ccsm i think | 01:38 |
| fattom | goncarlo - run compizconfig-settings-manager in a terminal | 01:38 |
| epinky | fattom: sometimes wpa_supplicant consider that detail :) really odd | 01:38 |
| gogeta | fattom: wpa or wpa2 is plenty to have a big keep out lol | 01:39 |
| Reign2 | anyone know how to echo text FROM a file TO a script? | 01:39 |
| Flannel | Reign2: As input you mean? or to create a file that's a script? | 01:39 |
| lzrdking | all routers broadcast unless you turn it off | 01:39 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Reign, use cat and pipes and grep | 01:39 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Reign2, use cat and pipes and grep | 01:39 |
| fattom | epinky - sorry, I didn't catch what you meant by that. Is that a router setting or an Ubuntu config setting? | 01:39 |
| Reign2 | for instance, in order to read a password from a file so I dont have to put my root pw in plain text in a script | 01:39 |
| === cp is now known as Guest54921 | ||
| Oblat | Does anyone know how to fix this error? http://paste-it.net/public/ga8e8f5/ | 01:40 |
| epinky | fattom: Ubuntu setting on wpa_supplicant.conf, but I guess you don't use that | 01:40 |
| Reign2 | spaceghostc2c: could you give an example? | 01:40 |
| lzrdking | the control-tab order in pidgin seems kinda random | 01:40 |
| snuxoll | Reign2: have your script accept the password from STDIN or as an argument | 01:40 |
| Flannel | Reign2: What are you trying to accomplish that you need to escilate in the middle of a script? | 01:41 |
| snuxoll | Reign2: the latter would be easier, and you could run your script like ./myscript `cat mypassword` | 01:41 |
| goncalo | found it!! now how to ally? | 01:41 |
| snuxoll | Reign2: Flannel brings up a good point though | 01:41 |
| Reign2 | well I have a script that unmounts cifs shares at shutdown before the network goes down | 01:41 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Reign2, you'd need to cat the file containing the password into the script. Like this ./script `cat password.file` | 01:41 |
| fattom | epinky: I don't know a lot about wireless networking, so if it's not the wireless driver or in the default, I don't have it. | 01:41 |
| Reign2 | but it requires me to echo my root pw | 01:42 |
| snuxoll | Reign2: urm, why are you handling this in a script? | 01:42 |
| Axizor | Hey guys... I installed a file which came as a tar.gz file and opened it. How do I compile this so I can run it? | 01:42 |
| Reign2 | is there another way to handle it? | 01:42 |
| Oblat | Does anyone know how to fix this error? http://paste-it.net/public/ga8e8f5/ | 01:42 |
| snuxoll | Reign2: if you mount a CIFS share with the 'mount' command it will be properly unmounted during shutdown like every other filesystem | 01:43 |
| fattom | Axizor: are you sure you have to compile it? A lot of time, it's just untar and run the executable. | 01:43 |
| holmser | Axizor, unzip it to a directory, then usually type sudo ./configure, then sudo make install | 01:43 |
| apache | hi, i have a problem with ubuntu. When i try the new kernel i get my computer frozen. When i try my old kernel i get an alert: /dev/disk/by-uuid/ <my uuid> does not exist. When i try a live cd i get : kernel panic not syncing....unable to mountroot fs on unknown block. Can anyuone solve this? thank you | 01:43 |
| epinky | Axizor: cd into decompressed directory and read README, it should be ./configure && make && sudo make install | 01:43 |
| Reign2 | unfortunately karmic does not do it properly | 01:43 |
| Axizor | Alright, thanks :D | 01:43 |
| Reign2 | its a bug thats been around forever | 01:43 |
| Reign2 | the network is shut down before the cifs get umounted | 01:44 |
| snuxoll | Reign2: odd | 01:44 |
| gogeta | Reign2: its not a bug its a feature | 01:44 |
| Reign2 | which causes the shutdown to stall | 01:44 |
| snuxoll | Reign2: might I suggest making an init script then instead | 01:44 |
| gogeta | lol | 01:44 |
| fattom | epinky: I DO have wpa_supplicant!!!!!!! Now, what should I be looking at in it? | 01:44 |
| snuxoll | Reign2: which are automatically run as rut | 01:44 |
| snuxoll | *root | 01:44 |
| Flannel | Reign2: Instead of doing that, use sudo, and put the script in your sudoers file, so you don't need a password for it. | 01:44 |
| vbabiy | Anyone else having issue after the last gdm upgrade, I can't login to my system just keeps asking me to login | 01:44 |

| Reign2 | can I pastebin the script as it stands now? | 01:45 |
| vbabiy | brandon_, so no solution | 01:45 |
| epinky | fattom: can you post your wpa_supplicant.conf ? | 01:45 |
| lzrdking | i niticed that i get CIFS errors when i reboot my jaunty laptop | 01:45 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Reign2, please do | 01:45 |
| brandon_ | heres my situtation | 01:45 |

| mkquist | are there alot of xserver problems with 9.10? | 01:45 |
| goncalo | how do i make windows to burn when closed? | 01:45 |
| fattom | epinky: yeah, give me just a second | 01:45 |

| brandon_ | so i install envyng-core in safemode | 01:45 |
| plitter | someone have a good idea? | 01:45 |
| gogeta | brianchidester_: thats the joke when its a bug they never fix | 01:45 |
| brandon_ | and let it do its thing | 01:45 |
| lividium | hello all | 01:45 |
| brandon_ | now i cant even get past the ubuntu white boot logo | 01:45 |

| synapsys | goncalo, compiz | 01:45 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | goncalo, I'm sorry can you rephrase your question? | 01:46 |
| goncalo | i know | 01:46 |
| switch10_ | mkquist: I haven't had any yeat | 01:46 |
| fattom | epinky: do you know offhand where that is in the filesystem. | 01:46 |
| switch10_ | yet* | 01:46 |
| Reign2 | http://pastebin.com/mcc66280 | 01:46 |
| brandon_ | how do i access my temrinal from my livedisk | 01:46 |
| brandon_ | so i can uninstall envyng | 01:46 |
| brandon_ | and hopefully fix it | 01:46 |
| synapsys | goncalo, open terminal and type ccsm | 01:46 |
| goncalo | i want to put fire on windows when they close | 01:46 |
| switch10_ | mkquist: I love 9.10 | 01:46 |
| fattom | Reign2 : do you have a /dev/null file? | 01:46 |
| epinky | fattom: mine is in /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf | 01:46 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | goncalo, oh, you mean the burn effect! sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager then in the animations | 01:46 |
| * Viking667 curses pulseaudio roundly | 01:46 | |

| goncalo | it does not aplly :S | 01:47 |
| gogeta | Viking667: yea i remove that garbage | 01:47 |
| Viking667 | It's (*%@)(*)(*$% useless on any of my machines. Any time I try to run Skype through it, my voice sounds really choppy to anyone else, and their voice all sound choppy. | 01:47 |

| brandon_ | i put a nvidia video card in and now once i login the screen turns white, it worked fine in safe mode until i installed envyng-gore now it goes black after the ubuntu boot logo | 01:47 |
| Viking667 | gogeta: heh. I can't remove it. | 01:47 |
| fattom | epinky: all that's in my /etc/wpa_supplicant folder are three shell scripts | 01:47 |
| Viking667 | several core items seem to depend upon it being installed | 01:47 |
| vbabiy | brandon_, I would use the default drivers | 01:47 |
| snuxoll | Viking667: might I suggest getting a less sucky sound chipset? | 01:47 |
| vbabiy | from jockey | 01:47 |
| brandon_ | i cant get in to switch back vbab | 01:47 |
| Reign2 | fattom: yes | 01:47 |
| brandon_ | and when i did use them | 01:47 |
| brandon_ | thats why the scren went white | 01:47 |
| Viking667 | snuxoll: only if you are willing to buy me a 2008 motherboard or newer... | 01:48 |
| vbabiy | no sure sorry | 01:48 |
| vbabiy | not* | 01:48 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | snuxoll, that isn't at all helpful. | 01:48 |
| gogeta | Viking667: its just a alisa layer and a rather poor one its supposed to get droped | 01:48 |
| fattom | Reign2: I'm not very good. That's all I've got. Sorry I'm not more help. | 01:48 |
| brandon_ | i put a nvidia video card in and now once i login the screen turns white, it worked fine in safe mode until i installed envyng-core now it goes black after the ubuntu boot logo | 01:48 |
| brandon_ | anyone?? | 01:48 |
| * Viking667 has a pentium 4 mobo (Celeron 2.8GHz), with a VIA chipset | 01:48 | |
| snuxoll | Viking667: any issues anyone has from pulseaudio is because they have some el-cheapo $0.10 HDA chipset on their motherboard. | 01:48 |
| brandon_ | how do i access my terminal from a livedisk | 01:48 |
| brandon_ | so i can undo the envyng shit | 01:48 |
| snuxoll | brandon_: language please | 01:48 |
| Viking667 | I even stuck in a second sound card (Ensoniq | 01:48 |
| dare | snuxoll: the issue is still pulseaudio | 01:48 |
| Reign2 | fattom: its fine. Im at a loss too. which is why Im here :) | 01:48 |
| brandon_ | sorry | 01:48 |
| andre123 | need help! all the videos im trying to see (youtube 4 example) are accelerated.. how can i see them in the normal speed? tkz | 01:49 |

| ogr3 | hey guys! I hope there is some helpful folks can help me get some teaching materials for a ubuntu/foss class. Also looking for 10 or so laptops/netbooks for around $200 a piece if anyone knows any deals. Not making a dime off this just doing it for the people.

| snuxoll | Viking667: which is why I'm saying skype is bad, mkay? Seriously though, check your skype settings | 01:51 |
| snuxoll | Viking667: make sure they're using the PA output and not ALSA | 01:51 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Viking667, would you like my help? I can try to figure it out with you. | 01:51 |
| snuxoll | wait, does skype even have PA support? | 01:51 |
| Viking667 | snuxoll: I did. It now records my audio, and sends it out. It also plays back audio fine... but only if I leave OFF pulseaudio | 01:51 |

| Viking667 | If I use pulseaudio, then my audio sounds really REALLY choppy, and so does any audio played back to me from inside skype. | 01:52 |
| con-man | epinky, then what | 01:52 |
| snuxoll | opticon: 9.10, you mean. Also, you shouldn't need any drivers | 01:52 |
| epinky | con-man: ./GoogleEarthLinux.bin | 01:52 |
| con-man | epinky, ty | 01:52 |

| SpaceGhostC2C | h00k, look into synergy. | 01:53 |
| Viking667 | hey, NICE! | 01:53 |
| epinky | fattom: not that, it should look like : http://www.y3m.net/docs/gentoo-on-t42/configs/wpa_supplicant.conf | 01:53 |
| Reign2 | so anyone have any idea about that umount cifs script? | 01:53 |

| burkmat_ | When moving large files to a TrueCrypt container, everything goes to hell and I need to reboot it.

| ozair | k so wat i want to know | 01:59 |
| ozair | is | 01:59 |
| epinky | fattom: going my way will not be standard, I've compiled supplicant from source against atheros drivers source code. But there are good howtos there, I'm sure one will work for you :) | 01:59 |
| ozair | Arch Linux vs. Ubuntu | 02:00 |
| dare | Adam75: what cpu does your laptop have? | 02:00 |
| Adam75 | dare; intel atom I belive | 02:00 |
| fattom | epinky: you compiled supplicant? | 02:00 |
| dare | Adam75: there's the problem, it's slow unloading the flash plugin I guess | 02:00 |
| Viking667 | xmove.... hmmm. | 02:00 |
| epinky | fattom: yes, but just for fun :) | 02:00 |
| ozair | u know for netbooks | 02:00 |
| lstarnes | ozair: afaik, this channel is not for compating ubuntu to other distributions (and most people here would say ubuntu is better anyay). Try asking in #ubuntu-offtopic, #archlinux-offtopic, or ##linux | 02:00 |
| Viking667 | I can't find it in any of the Ubuntu repositories. Another tarball+make+makeinstall, I guess. | 02:01 |
| ozair | windows 7 basic is coming out | 02:01 |
| Adam75 | dare; I thought so too. Don't really care but I came to think about it | 02:01 |
| Madpilot | Anyone know where the heck gnome-panel hides it's settings file? | 02:01 |

| ozair | so | 02:01 |
| oldtopman | just looking from a ds, not here for help | 02:01 |
| ozair | can someone tell me??/ | 02:01 |
| Viking667 | Madpilot: look under .gconf/apps/panel | 02:01 |
| dare | ozair: ubuntu if you don't want to waste hours/days getting arch to ubuntu's functionality | 02:01 |
| ozair | which is better | 02:01 |
| burkmat_ | !best | ozair | 02:01 |
| ubottu | ozair: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 02:01 |
| Madpilot | Viking667, thnx | 02:01 |
| Viking667 | Madpilot: also look under .gnome2/panel2.d | 02:01 |
| fattom | epinky: I'm on an asus aspire one, and when I first got it, the only driver that I could get to work at all was ath5k, and it works only on Linksys routers. | 02:01 |

| FloodBot1 | ozair: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 02:02 |
| ozair | so complicated *sigh* | 02:02 |
| Coded1 | ozair, go gentoo! | 02:02 |
| Viking667 | Madpilot: you may want to use gconf-editor | 02:02 |
| Madpilot | Viking667, thanks, having a strange bug w/ gnome-panel not starting properly on boot, going to can all the customizations and see if that sorts it | 02:02 |
| lstarnes | ozair: arch is more aimed towards experienced users | 02:02 |
| Viking667 | Madpilot: heh. | 02:02 |
| ozair | lol ok | 02:02 |
| dare | ozair: arch also uses very unstable packages in its repositories, and your video drivers have a high chance of not working with the version of xorg in the repos | 02:02 |
| ozair | also | 02:02 |
| Madpilot | Viking667, or at least isolates which applet is hanging up... :P | 02:03 |

| ozair | k so i have a main computer in my basement equipped with windows 7 | 02:03 |
| ozair | and i have this comp with xubuntu | 02:04 |
| ozair | so the problem: SAMBA | 02:04 |
| jMyles | !ubuntu-one | 02:04 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu One is a service where you can back up, store, sync and share your data with other Ubuntu One users - For more see https://one.ubuntu.com/ | 02:04 |
| jMyles | Isn't there an Ubuntu-one channel? | 02:04 |
| epinky | fattom: it would be very helpful to run wpa_supplicant from command line with -dd flag(verbose mode) to see what happens, anyway read that docs to have a better idea of what could be the problem :) | 02:04 |
| ozair | i don't know how to configure it....even if i could just set up a printing server that would be great :) | 02:04 |
| qwyeth | ozair, samba isn't a problem, it's a solution :D | 02:04 |
| ozair | LOL, but its complicated | 02:05 |
| fattom | epinky: Will Do. thanks a million for the assist. | 02:05 |
| ozair | and ive tried 100000000 times | 02:05 |

| qwyeth | ozair, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpSamba | 02:05 |

| ozair | okie thanks :) | 02:05 |
| ozair | wow this chat is really helpful :P | 02:06 |
| peng888 | hello. I did something on my asus laptop, and the multimedia combinations of "fn_key+sound_volume_up/down" stopped working. Can you advice me on getting that back? | 02:06 |
| Kamokow | I shrunk my the ext4 partition in my extended partition (the one with ubuntu on it (9.10)), however I cant shrink the extended volume to get the unallocated space out of the extended partition. Any ideas? :-/ | 02:07 |
| qwyeth | ozair, also, I haven't really done samba in xubuntu, but you may want to give ubuntu a shot... file and printer sharing in the 'regular' edition is a snap... just a few easy, intuitive clicks, and in my experience it 'just works' when viewing the shares from xp and vista (haven't tried 7 but expect it's just as easy) | 02:08 |
| spvensko | am i just crazy or is gparted no longer in the repos? was it replaced with something? | 02:08 |
| roygbiv | anyone heard of corruption issues with 9.10 + ext4 + SATA? | 02:08 |
| dare | spvensko: it's in the karmic repos | 02:08 |
| ozair | ubuntu was so SLOW :( | 02:08 |
| ozair | thats y i put xubuntu | 02:08 |
| peng888 | Kamokow, unmounted everything? | 02:08 |
| ozair | it uses less resources | 02:08 |
| Kamokow | peng888: yes I have unmounted everything, still doesnt work. | 02:08 |
| moymoy | qwyeth: thanks. I guess i don't need it. I just wanted to update my chromium snapshot without using the chromium PPA.. also wanted to save some bandwidth | 02:09 |
| qwyeth | ozair, I understand, I've used the xfce version for the same reasons... did you try turning off all desktop effects in ubuntu though? | 02:09 |
| ozair | yea i did that, it was still slow | 02:09 |
| qwyeth | *nods* | 02:10 |
| peng888 | Kamokow, I think i had done that for myself and it worked before. and I am new to ubuntu. what step is not working? | 02:10 |
| peng888 | hello. I did something on my asus laptop, and the multimedia combinations of "fn_key+sound_volume_up/down" stopped working. Can you advice me on getting that back? | 02:10 |
| ozair | well here are the soecs on my comp: i have a pentium 3 processor, and a 8 gb (EEEEW) hard drive and also 756 mb of ram ( ithink) but that could not be true cause its so SLOW | 02:10 |
| ozair | oh and its a dell optiplex GX1 | 02:10 |
| preecher | my office (small hotel) runs on windows xp and i have a security camera system installed on that computer-however all my personal laptops only have ubuntu--if i set up a VPN on the office windows machine will/can i log into that from my ubuntu laptops when i am at home? | 02:10 |
| Kamokow | peng888: I have the unallocated space, i right click, open the Resize/Move dialouge, but I cant move the slider (in either direction) | 02:11 |
| roygbiv | i'm a horribly lame idiot with no sense of style, and windows 7 was my idea | 02:11 |
| vbabiy | any one figure out the gdm issue | 02:11 |
| ozair | excuse u, windows 7 looks WAYYYY better than linux :P | 02:11 |
| ozair | thats one of the resons i dont like linux, UGLY ddesktops :( | 02:12 |
| zerq | wat | 02:12 |
| Emiliano | ugly desktops? | 02:12 |
| spvensko | ozair: if you are using linux for aesthetic purposes then you're using it for the wrong purposes | 02:12 |
| Emiliano | I wish it's an irony | 02:12 |
| ozair | that was directed to roygbiv | 02:12 |
| spvensko | the benefits of linux should outweigh the ugliness of its desktops | 02:12 |
| zerq | linux desktops can look awesome imo | 02:12 |
| Kamokow | Also, you CAN make linux look better with a little bit of work... | 02:12 |
| dare | gnome is pretty elegant and functional imo.. win7 still doesn't have tabbed file explorer! | 02:12 |
| spvensko | oh hehe | 02:12 |
| zerq | although the defaults are generally not very pretty | 02:13 |
| ozair | thats true zerq | 02:13 |
| Emiliano | ozair: Try KDE 4 | 02:13 |
| peng888 | Kamokow, are you using LiveCD(that's what i'd try)? and try adjusting the numbers manually... a i remember some sliders not moving. there's nothing wrong i'd guess, just need to look carefulle at what you're trying to do... i wish i could see your system. | 02:13 |
| mkquist | i dont agree,itcan bemade tolook any way u want | 02:13 |
| spvensko | btw ty dare, i am able to dl gparted now :) | 02:13 |
| peng888 | Kamokow, how to make linux look better, what you mean? i wanna do that... | 02:13 |
| ozair | but u have to install cairo dock, themes , wallpapers, icons | 02:13 |
| dare | spvensko: excellent | 02:13 |
| Kamokow | peng888: Yes liveCD, and i cant change the numbers either | 02:13 |
| qwyeth | spvensko, I STRONGLY disagree that aesthetics are the wrong reason to make a decision on a desktop system. 'Aesthetics' doesn't just mean appearance, mind you... it's about overall comfort to use | 02:13 |

| ozair | LOL | 02:14 |
| opticon | default look with ubuntu isnt bad just customize theme to your liking | 02:14 |
| peng888 | "excuse u, windows 7 looks WAYYYY better than linux :P"/// GUYS! they are both customizable. | 02:14 |
| ozair | cairo dock slowed my ubuntu down even more, so i had to uninstall\ | 02:15 |

| peng888 | guys, i have a question, it's about using compiz. my laptop is 1.66 core 2 duo, 64bit ubuntu, i tried using the compiz 3d effects, and i noticed, that when the cpu is under some load (just working with firefox), when i try to minimize-maximize windows, the effect of compiz would freeze for some portion of a second. why would that be? it's especially interesting since my video card is nvidia, and it's pretty strong to cope with that, and in new W | 02:26 |
| peng888 | ind7 the animations work fine... any idea? how does compiz perform for you? | 02:26 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | peng888, by "some load" What do you mean? peaked? | 02:27 |
| raptornv | ok | 02:28 |
| raptornv | sorry all | 02:28 |
| raptornv | see you later | 02:28 |
| peng888 | SpaceGhostc2c, no, as i said - just in browsing with firefox, i would see the effects to freeze as if the processor was really loaded or whatnot... | 02:28 |
| swaj | peng888: did you install the restricted nvidia drivers? the compiz effects have more to do with your video card/drivers than they do with CPU | 02:29 |

| ubottu | ae86-drifter: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 02:59 |
| ae86-drifter | select wireless and turn it on | 02:59 |

| ae86-drifter | SpaceGhostC2C, in my opinion | 02:59 |

| LinuxN3wb | Hey I have a set up of 3 monitors, 2 of which are in twinview and 1 as a separate X screen... However, the problem is that the two twinview monitors are stretched, as in it shows up as one large monitor instead of two separate monitors. | 03:01 |
| brandon_ | yes | 03:01 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ae86-drifter, I'd be very verbose about it being your opinion and that it isn't necessarily the best for every user. ps, I don't think it matters much that you have a computer with lots of resources, at least not to me. | 03:01 |
| LinuxN3wb | I couldn't figure out how to fix this :X | 03:01 |
| brandon_ | envycore-ore i believe | 03:01 |
| brandon_ | err | 03:01 |
| brandon_ | envyng-core | 03:01 |
| LinuxN3wb | Any ideas? | 03:01 |
| ae86-drifter | SpaceGhostC2C, resources are very precious on a 486 | 03:02 |
| Flannel | brandon_: Right. I believe (I've never used envy) that the envy program installs drivers from elsewhere and as such, you can't remove those drivers through package management (removing envy just removes envy, not the drivers) | 03:02 |

| brandon_ | but i cant seem to access it maybe i typed it wrong | 03:03 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ae86-drifter, so I'd be very careful about saying that kde is best. I'd present it and inform them about it's resource requirements as you see them. | 03:03 |

| morphix | so no one knows how i can shrink a extended partition on software raid 1? | 03:37 |
| Mike_lifeguard | In USN-\d\d\d-\d (security notices), there are references to CVE-\d\d\d\d-\d\d\d\d -- what are those? | 03:37 |
| Mike_lifeguard | IdleOne: I know, that's why I said to cut it out :) | 03:37 |
| epinky | morphix: LVM concerned? | 03:37 |
| morphix | unfortunately there is no LVM | 03:38 |
| freetown2 | morphix, you cannot put an extended partition on software raid? | 03:38 |
| ae86-drifter | could someone tell me how i can enable user write permission to a folder mounted through sshfs? | 03:38 |
| IdleOne | Mike_lifeguard: I used to have that back when on EFnet using mirc | 03:38 |
| Jeruvy | Mike_lifeguard: http://cve.mitre.org/ | 03:38 |
| morphix | freetown2, ya you can. | 03:38 |
| Mike_lifeguard | Jeruvy: thanks! | 03:38 |
| morphix | eg. sda1, sda2, sda3 are primary | 03:38 |
| freetown2 | morphix, that's new to me | 03:38 |
| morphix | sda4 starts the extended | 03:38 |
| swaj | hmm. Are there any decent non-AIR twitter clients for Linux? Most I've seen look kinda bad | 03:38 |
| Mike_lifeguard | IdleOne: that's not something to brag about :\ | 03:38 |
| freetown2 | nope | 03:39 |
| morphix | sda5 & sda6 are actually the partitions | 03:39 |
| freetown2 | sda4 is primary | 03:39 |
| Jeruvy | Mike_lifeguard: np | 03:39 |
| IdleOne | Mike_lifeguard: was 10+ years ago :/ | 03:39 |
| morphix | well it holds the extended | 03:39 |
| freetown2 | you were saying an extended ON md | 03:39 |
| freetown2 | morphix, nope, sda4 is primary. | 03:39 |
| Mike_lifeguard | IdleOne: I hope you're about 20 right now :\ | 03:40 |
| IdleOne | Mike_lifeguard: :P | 03:40 |
| morphix | well i meant, i have for eg. sda1, sda2, sda3 which go to md0, md1, md2 respectively | 03:40 |
| tech__ | Hi, has anybody experienced any system hangs after doing recent ubuntu 9.10 updates. | 03:40 |
| morphix | sda5 & sda6 are then md3 & md4 | 03:40 |
| tech__ | My machine just hangs on grub console. | 03:40 |
| morphix | i need to shrink the partition for md3 | 03:40 |
| === tech__ is now known as ratso | ||
| morphix | when i use resize2f it appears to be fine no errors | 03:41 |
| morphix | but then when i try to boot back into the OS from live distro | 03:41 |
| morphix | md3 fails | 03:41 |
| === W3NU is now known as CharlesR | ||
| morphix | completely | 03:41 |
| freetown2 | morphix, i don't remember md devices being shrinkable... | 03:42 |
| morphix | yeh, mdadm --grow /dev/md<dev> size=<size> | 03:42 |
| === lipsinV21 is now known as lipsinV2 | ||
| morphix | if you specify a smaller size than it is current | 03:43 |
| morphix | it shrinks | 03:43 |
| Mike_lifeguard | OK, so I can't open screen?! O_o Cannot make directory '/var/run/screen': Permission denied | 03:43 |
| morphix | this has worked fine so far for the 3 primary partitions | 03:43 |
| ae86-drifter | after i mount a folder with sshfs, when i browse with cli to the mounted folder, i get permission denied, i have full root access to the server, could someone please tell me how i can enable user write permission to a folder mounted through sshfs? | 03:44 |
| freetown2 | morphix, okay and the respective partitions are also automatically adjusted? | 03:44 |
| morphix | yes | 03:44 |
| Perezosito | HOLAA es mi primer dia en ubuntu jajajjja | 03:45 |
| ae86-drifter | when i try chown and chmod 777 return cannot access: permission denied | 03:45 |
| morphix | i use, resize2fs then mdadm --grow then do e2fsck | 03:45 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ae86-drifter, try putting sudo in front. | 03:45 |
| morphix | once reboot back into proper system, its all fine and shows new sizes | 03:45 |
| ae86-drifter | SpaceGhostC2C, i am | 03:45 |
| freetown2 | morphix, okay, one resizes the filesystem, and then the md array... | 03:45 |

| SpaceGhostC2C | what are the permissions on the files? | 03:46 |
| freetown2 | morphix, interesting thnx | 03:46 |
| ae86-drifter | on the server? or on the mounted folder? | 03:46 |
| ratso | any body experiencing system hangs after ubuntu 9.10 updates where only grub console comes up? | 03:46 |
| BlueG | I have been having random freezes with Ubuntu 9.10 that occur only on a Dell Dimension 4500S and not on other computers I have installed it on. The cursor continues to move, but nothing else works, not virtual terminals, numlock, capslock, or even ping. Any suggestions? | 03:46 |
| Perezosito | !es . | 03:46 |
| morphix | i really need to resize this stupid extended partition, its 9gb, the new disc partition size needs to be 4gb | 03:46 |
| morphix | :( | 03:46 |
| freetown2 | morphix, i guess using lots of md devices is better than using LVM which does not support barriers | 03:46 |
| morphix | if i had of set the machine up i'm trying to change, i would used LVM or similar | 03:47 |
| morphix | but i didnt | 03:47 |
| t0rc | Is there a way to go to an older version of a library ? (I want to go back a version or two for libbluetooth) | 03:48 |
| freetown2 | morphix, not using LVm with sfotware riad is probably a good thin | 03:49 |
| BlueG | I have had it freeze with any combination of common programs open while working, when it went to screen saver and I was away, and even right after login before I could open any programs. | 03:49 |

| LinuxN3wb | Hmm, for some reason I cannot install xserver-xgl -- When I try to install it from synaptic or apt-get, it says the package isn't available | 04:23 |

| boxxy_ | ubuntuforums is down =( | 04:44 |

| Flannel | chilli0: Extension tools? No, I suppose I don't. | 04:45 |
| leaf-sheep | miansc: Also, http://www.osalt.com/visual-studio | 04:45 |
| chilli0 | Flannel, You can run bash inside gedit but the command doesnt work | 04:46 |
| Blue11 | i am running the netbook remix (9.10) and I like it but even with the mouse senstitiviy turned to the lowest, it;s still too sensative --suggestions? | 04:46 |

| miansc | leaf-sheep: thanks heaps | 04:46 |
| SeattleOtaku | Sigh, so much for using a USB boot to keep Ubuntu and Vista separate... an update of grub blitzed my vista disk's mbr. | 04:46 |
| miansc | wait... visual studio, its for windows lol? | 04:47 |
| Flannel | miansc: For what language? | 04:47 |
| leaf-sheep | miansc: Yes. You also could use !virtualization to run Visual Studio inside Windows. | 04:47 |
| miansc | mainly c==/c# | 04:48 |
| miansc | C++* | 04:48 |
| Orion777 | is anyone here who is not a hacker? | 04:48 |
| adminewb | chilli0, looks as though you want to finish a gedit session by compiling all the source in the folder you're editing | 04:48 |
| Guest48101 | how to change the GDM login window of ubuntu 9.10? I find it's very difficult. | 04:48 |
| Flannel | miansc: Look into either Eclipse (with CDT) or Anjuta, those are both fairly standard IDEs for c++ | 04:48 |
| miansc | !virtualization | 04:48 |
| ubottu | There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !kvm is the preferred approach in Ubuntu. See also !QEmu (with !KQemu), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications | 04:48 |
| miansc | ok | 04:48 |
| miansc | what about making forms? | 04:48 |
| miansc | can they both do that too | 04:48 |
| Sagaci | Orion777: you're probably been asking in ubuntu-offtopic | 04:48 |
| Flannel | Guest48101: The rewrite of GDM doesn't yet support theming | 04:48 |
| Out_Cold | Guest48101, they removed that option | 04:49 |
| Sagaci | Orion777: !ot | 04:49 |

| ubottu | Orion777: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 04:49 |
| Viking667 | they removed a hell of a lot from the gdm too. | 04:49 |
| chilli0 | adminewb, I dont want to end gedit and i wanna compile the open file then run it in terminal | 04:49 |
| Sagaci | Viking667: unfortunately, yes | 04:49 |
| Flannel | miansc: What is a form? You mean a GUI maker thing? I'm not sure. That's really toolkit specific, so if you use GTK, you use the GTK form maker, etc. | 04:49 |
| leaf-sheep | Viking667: Fortunately, yes. | 04:49 |
| Kamokow | I was moving partitions, and when I finished and rebooted, ubuntu gave me a boot error... is there like a fixmbr function for grub? | 04:50 |
| miansc | right... but then how do i import the GTK GUI to a program like eclipse to code the buttons, etc.. | 04:50 |
| Guest48101 | Flannel:thank you | 04:50 |
| adminewb | chilli0: if i'm reading your shell script correctly, it would compile a directory rather than the file you're editing, is that intended? | 04:50 |
| Flannel | miansc: I'm not sure, but I imagine it produces code with stub functions (I'm just guessing because that makes sense), it'd depend on the GUI Form maker thing | 04:51 |
| chilli0 | adminewb, It doesnt | 04:51 |
| Orion777 | no, its just everyone in #kubuntu right now is a hacker teenager | 04:51 |
| Orion777 | pranksters | 04:51 |
| miansc | ok, fair enough. | 04:51 |
| Jayce | anybody running WICD? I keep losing connection with it every 10 seconds and I'm not sure of why. | 04:51 |
| adminewb | chilli0, so then $GEDIT_CURRENT_DOCUMENT_PATH refers to a file not its container? | 04:51 |
| miansc | i cant seem to get eclipse to work.. but ill try alternatives | 04:52 |
| chilli0 | adminewb, correct | 04:52 |
| adminewb | chilli0, what gedit command lets you run a subshell? | 04:52 |
| chenhui | hi | 04:53 |
| Orion777 | is another irc server with kubuntu support cause this one is just kid pranksters | 04:53 |
| leaf-sheep | Orion777: #kde, perhaps? | 04:53 |
| greezmunkey | Jayce, you could start by running a tail on /var/log/syslog to see what is going on... | 04:53 |
| leaf-sheep | Orion777: You always can ask here too. | 04:54 |
| chilli0 | adminewb, If u go to plugins enable extention tools | 04:54 |
| chilli0 | adminewb, You can then run bash commands | 04:55 |

| xhcet | any tips on how i can make xubuntu faster? running on 256M pIII | 04:56 |
| adminewb | chilli0, ok; looking at the script something is still fishy: it does a "cd $DIR" while treating the same $DIR as if it were a file not the container | 04:56 |
| pilif12p | how do i open a .dir or .pag file? | 04:57 |
| happyface | anyone have nomachine nx experience? | 04:57 |
| greezmunkey | Jayce, is that what is affecting wicd you think? | 04:57 |
| chilli0 | adminewb, Changed it , but when i run ./file2 it just dies | 04:58 |
| adminewb | chilli0, and so once you enable extension tools, what is it you do to run a shell to run file2? | 04:58 |
| Jayce | greezmunkey - I dont believe so. I upgraded KDE on jaunty from 4.2.2 to 4.3.2, and that's whent he depenency issue came up. I have no idea why WICD is being weird, and I friggen love that network mgr so I hope it can be fixed. | 04:58 |
| adminewb | chilli0, so gedit does a crash dump at that point | 04:58 |
| chilli0 | adminewb, Are you on it atm ? | 04:58 |
| adminewb | chilli0 no sorry i'm on windoze :P | 04:59 |

| xnox | Hello! how to run application in a different language? | 04:59 |
| Jayce | but anyway how would I fix the dependency issue? I cant install ANYTHING now... | 04:59 |
| chilli0 | adminewb, It just goes gray | 05:00 |
| chilli0 | http://codepad.org/3zz3MGhY adminewb thats it | 05:00 |
| adminewb | chilli0, so the gedit process locks up then and doesn't accept GUI interactions | 05:00 |
| chilli0 | adminewb, Yes | 05:00 |
| chilli0 | adminewb, And if i force close it i cant restart gedit | 05:01 |
| chilli0 | But weirdly file2 does start its in the processes , and if i kill it i can start gedit | 05:02 |
| adminewb | chilli0 that's unfortunate; can you tell whether it's able to cd to the right place before locking up? | 05:02 |
| chilli0 | did u see the now one http://codepad.org/3zz3MGhY | 05:02 |
| chilli0 | It starts in the right dir ( the ls proves that) | 05:02 |
| adminewb | chilli0, as a diagnostic you might try temporarily replacing the "./file2" by some other cmd you know will work "echo hello world" or some such | 05:03 |
| === Prodego_ is now known as Administrivia | ||
| chilli0 | that does echo out hello world | 05:03 |
| chilli0 | Not in a terminal | 05:03 |
| adminewb | chilli0, ok then in that case you'll probably want to read the output from the "cc" to see if the compiling is producing a junk executable to lock you up | 05:04 |
| greezmunkey | Question regarding sudo: The handbook mentions that gksudo is preferred over sudo to avoid certain files becoming owned by root. Is this really much of an issue with 9.10? | 05:04 |

| === Guy is now known as Guest52324 | ||

| greezmunkey | Madpilot, IdleOne, Ah! now that makes sense! Thanks :) | 05:05 |
| chilli0 | How can i make bash run a terminal with a command | 05:05 |

| devD | how to show computer icon in ubuntu desktop ? | 05:17 |
| aminalshmu | does anyone know how to mount a network printer's SD card? | 05:17 |
| llutz | aminalshmu: does the printer make the SD-card availabler per smb/nfs/ftp/...? | 05:18 |
| chilli0 | llutz, Thanks a loadd | 05:18 |
| greezmunkey | Jayce, so it's xchat that is broken? You are trying to fix it? | 05:18 |
| aminalshmu | probably smb? after installing the driver software in windows it comes up as a removable disk drive automatically | 05:18 |
| jumbers | If I'm on 9.10 and a package is only offered for Debian Etch or Lenny, which one would I need to download? | 05:18 |
| Jayce | greezmunkey - no, xchat was just an example. I just chose to install it to show what errors I was getting. | 05:18 |

| Out_Cold | i'm having errors creating a NFS mount. anyone care to take a look? http://pastebin.com/m662494e1 | 05:19 |
| greezmunkey | Jayce, I see... | 05:19 |
| Jayce | greezmunkey - I'm on a kubuntu laptop when Im getting these errors. All I did was upgrade KDE with a PPA backport. Thats all I changed. That and WICD. Besides that it's a fresh install with minor desktop/widget modifications. | 05:19 |
| Out_Cold | ** note the 2 separate boxes | 05:19 |
| fattom | Jayce - have you tried apt-get install libindi0 ? | 05:20 |
| adminewb | chilli0 so then you were just missing the "-e" switch | 05:20 |
| greezmunkey | Jace, check this: http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3104967.0 | 05:20 |
| Jayce | fattom - No, I did not. Where do you see that? | 05:20 |
| chilli0 | adminewb, Yeh | 05:20 |
| gbear142751 | anyone have any recommendations for a way to manage my headless machine? | 05:20 |
| fattom | Jayce - the error message says that that's an unfilfilled dependency. Might help. | 05:21 |
| Jayce | fattom - guess I should read a little more carefully :P | 05:21 |
| gbear142751 | most the people recommend cli? or are there any decent gui's? | 05:21 |
| Jayce | fattom - Ill try that one sec | 05:21 |
| jumbers | gbear142751: Gauze to stop the bleeding | 05:21 |
| Jayce | fattom - its trying to install that lib thing now | 05:21 |
| Kamokow | Ugh, and my windows partition wont boot, great :-/ | 05:21 |
| Jayce | fattom - errored out again... | 05:21 |
| fattom | Jayce - anything substantially different in the error message? | 05:22 |
| Jayce | fattom - one sec, grabbin the pastebin for ya | 05:22 |
| gbear142751 | jumbers: lol thanx i'll give that a shot... | 05:22 |
| Jayce | fattom - http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m52cd123 | 05:22 |
| jumbers | gbear142751: No problem | 05:22 |
| greezmunkey | Jayce, did you check the post I gave you? | 05:24 |
| Out_Cold | i'm having errors creating a NFS mount. anyone care to take a look? http://pastebin.com/m662494e1 | 05:24 |
| hanasaki | what is a good tool for benchmarking disk performance and what results are considered Good for a sata300 disk? | 05:24 |
| Jayce | greezmunkey - reading about it now | 05:24 |
| Jayce | greezmunkey - so you suggest sudo dpkg --remove --force-depends libinid0 | 05:24 |
| Jayce | ?? | 05:24 |
| greezmunkey | Jayce, It looks like you may have to remove the update with the command in the first reply, then reinstall? That's what I get from it. | 05:25 |
| demonspork | How do I dynamically adjust my mouse sensitivity? | 05:26 |
| Jayce | greezmunkey - remove by... by dpkg --remove... right? | 05:26 |
| fattom | the problem is a conflict with /usr/bin/indiserver. apparently, the new package is trying to overwrite it, and can't do it automatically. I don't know too much about it, but that's where I'd start looking. | 05:26 |
| adminewb | Anyone know if there are significant differences between the ubuntu LiveCD creater on a USB drive, compared to a portable linux installation on same? I don't know how you even tell if your device has some built in wear leveling, let alone where /tmp is mounted or where persistence data goes when. | 05:26 |
| Jayce | fattom - I wonder what happened :( I upgraded KDE on 4 machines and this was the only one giving me a headache. | 05:26 |
| fattom | I'm having some trouble with my acer aspire one and the power management utility in Karmic Netbook Remix. When I unplug the computer from AC power, the power manager performs the action associated with a lid close. When I close the lid, the computer does nothing. Any ideas of how I can "inform" the system that it has the mappings wrong? | 05:26 |
| knux889 | acer sucks | 05:27 |
| knux889 | i have one and its been pissing me off | 05:27 |
| fattom | Jayce - laptops are historically a little more temperamental with Ubuntu. I had no problems on my netbook with jaunty, but have had three major issues since the upgrade to Karmic. | 05:27 |
| maco | knux889: good for it | 05:27 |
| Rajasun | Jayce: try this -> sudo dpkg --force overwrite -i /var/cache/apt/archives/libindi0_0.6-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb | 05:28 |
| fattom | knux889: I'm overall pretty happy with it, and didn't have this problem with Jaunty. So it's not entirely the hardware's fault. | 05:28 |
| Jayce | fattom - I've avoided karmic, due to issues. Thats why I figured Id stick with jaunty and just update KDE since KDE 4.3 is the newest you can get with jaunty | 05:28 |
| Meshezabeel | chilli0: spinrite is the tool I was thinking about before | 05:28 |
| microlith | lol, spinrite | 05:28 |
| Rajasun | Jayce: then run sudo dpkg --configure -a | 05:28 |
| gbear142751 | how can I tell through cli what version I'm running? I tried uname -a but only got the kernel versino | 05:29 |
| Viking667 | gbear142751: check out /etc/issue or /etc/release | 05:29 |
| leaf-sheep | gbear142751: lsb_release -a | 05:29 |
| Viking667 | oh, or that. | 05:29 |
| Jayce | rajasun - no such file or directory | 05:29 |
| Viking667 | I have a funny feeling that if things don't improve here, I'll be backing my system off to Jaunty too... | 05:29 |
| Rajasun | Jayce: /var/cache/apt/archives/libindi0_0.6-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb is what I see as the package giving you the problem from http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m52cd123 | 05:30 |
| fattom | Jayce - is it feasible to delete the package 'indi' and reinstall after the libindi0? | 05:31 |
| Jayce | fattom - feasible by whos standards? Mine? Sure! I just want this thing running :P | 05:31 |
| Jayce | besides, I have an image I made of the install, so if it tanks, we're okay :P | 05:31 |
| Jayce | I've learned enough hard lessons to know, when things are running good, make a da** image of the thing. | 05:31 |
| greezmunkey | fattom, is there a way to determine which packages depend on that lib? | 05:32 |
| Jayce | rajasun -l et me double check, but Im pretty sure I typed it right | 05:32 |
| fattom | Jayce - give that a shot. that seems to be what's currently causing problems. According to the man page, it's for controlling telescopes. | 05:32 |
| Jayce | telescopes??? | 05:32 |
| fattom | Jayce - I would open Synaptic, check it for deletion, and then see what else it threatens to uninstall. | 05:32 |
| Rajasun | jayce: this kind of sitiuations rarely arises but when it does, usually it is some developer's oversight with the installation scripts or that you have been mixing repos or using external, unofficial repos, A simple sudo dpkg --force overwrite -i and sudo dpkg --configure -a or sudo dpkg --configure --pending usually is all that it takes | 05:32 |
| Jayce | rajasun - had a typo :P | 05:33 |
| Jayce | standby.. | 05:33 |
| fattom | Jayce - NDI is a distributed control protocol designed to operate | 05:33 |
| fattom | astronomical instrumentation. | 05:33 |
| Jayce | rajasun - I think we got a winner | 05:33 |
| Jayce | installing exaile as we speak, let me check add/remove programs quick | 05:33 |
| Jayce | exaile took on a lot of libs it seems, I remember it being a light program | 05:34 |
| Jayce | but this is also a work laptop, not my personal one, so maybe it just seemed like a lot on my own desktop (also running jaunty with KDE 4.3.2) | 05:34 |
| mbgray | Hey there, is there anyone who can point me towards a good place to read more about the X server? | 05:34 |
| Rajasun | jayce: next time something like this arises again...remember the steps...usually it is a starightforward/no brainer solution like I've suggested...theer will be other situations when you may need to get your hands dirty and dive into maintainers'' scripts though e.g. prerm, postrm, preinst, posinst but we'll come to them when they arise | 05:35 |
| Nperil | hey all. im on a windows platform now and need to know what i need to download to a thumb drive to update the video and the music player for ubuntu hardy heron 8.04. can any one help | 05:35 |
| Rajasun | jayce: good to hear :) | 05:35 |
| greezmunkey | Rajasun, that's pretty cool, thanks for the info on dependancies | 05:35 |
| peterchou_ | hello ervy one | 05:35 |
| Jayce | rajasun - so more or less, what did we accomplish? We just dpkg --force overwrite -i *package path* then configure -a | 05:36 |
| Jayce | right? | 05:36 |
| Rajasun | greezmunkey: np...may need to read up more on DPKG and APT e.g. http://www.linux.com/archive/feature/48910 | 05:36 |
| greezmunkey | Rajasun, I have to man page open as we (speak)... | 05:37 |

| peterchou_ | I have a question, can someone help me | 05:37 |
| fattom | peterchou, what's your question? | 05:37 |
| Rajasun | Jayce & greezemunkey : Also this other primer -> http://tldp.org/LDP/www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-tutorial/ch-dpkg.html | 05:37 |
| Jayce | rajasun - okay, add/remove was behaving too, so we're good now. Thanks raja, greezmunkey, and fattom. | 05:38 |

| devD | is there any dictionary which can do pronunciation too. | 05:38 |

| adminewb | Someone know if there are significant differences between the ubuntu LiveCD creator on a USB flash drive (usb-creator package), compared to a portable linux installation on same? I don't know how you even tell if your device has some built in wear leveling, let alone where /tmp is mounted or where persistence data goes when. | 05:38 |
| devD | speaking dictionary. | 05:38 |
| fattom | peterchou_what's it do? | 05:38 |
| Rajasun | Jayce: np | 05:38 |
| greezmunkey | Rajasun, heh thanks, that's a bit easier to read | 05:38 |
| Out_Cold | i'm having errors creating a NFS mount. anyone care to take a look? http://pastebin.com/m662494e1 | 05:38 |

| Jayce | is anybody running Karmic 64 bit on a laptop with the Broadcom STA driver installed? | 05:39 |
| peterchou_ | but when I add acpi=off ,it will boot | 05:39 |
| Rajasun | greezemunkey: hehe...prob with a lot of these docs is that they are written by devs thinking along devs' line not that of a typical user especially a new one | 05:39 |
| peterchou_ | boot | 05:39 |
| Rajasun | ;) | 05:39 |
| fattom | Out_Cold: Dumb question: do you have nfs-common installed on the client machine? | 05:40 |
| Out_Cold | yes | 05:40 |
| hotlove | :'( | 05:40 |
| Out_Cold | do i need the partition to be nfs? | 05:40 |
| Out_Cold | well it's lvm but still.. | 05:40 |
| peterchou_ | I use wubi to setup my ubuntu | 05:41 |
| Jayce | anybody running WICD on their laptop? If so, any issues iwth it? | 05:41 |
| preecher | tryng to get vpn client on my ubuntu only laptop to connect to my workplace windows machine vpn server-get this message-"connection failed because there were no valid vpn secrets" | 05:41 |
| Out_Cold | Jayce, i have had issues in the past | 05:41 |
| Jayce | out_cold - really? | 05:41 |
| Out_Cold | i now only use wicd on LAN | 05:41 |
| Jayce | what kind of issues? | 05:41 |
| Jayce | so you prefer network manager? | 05:41 |
| Out_Cold | connectivity and freezing | 05:41 |
| Out_Cold | i prefer wicd on my server ;) | 05:42 |
| rahul286 | any command line backup/snapshot tool for remote server? | 05:42 |
| fattom | Jayce: I'm running WICD on my netbook (since about 3 hours ago) and I haven't had a problem. In fact, it solved a strange problem that my wireless would only talk to linksys routers. So, YMMV, but I love it. | 05:42 |
| Jayce | out_cold - so for a laptop running wifi full time you prefer the default network manager? | 05:42 |
| Nperil | hey all i have a question. im on a windows platform now and need to know what i need to download to a thumb drive to get all of the updates. | 05:42 |
| SuperMiguel | i just set up a nas.. how can i test my upload and downlaod speeds to it? | 05:42 |
| Jayce | fattom - its strange. I REALLY, REALLY like how with WICD, it'll show me each access point in the area even if it's the same SSID (handy at work) | 05:42 |
| greezmunkey | Rajasun, I agree. I try to learn something new every time I am in here, you gave me my project for the night! | 05:42 |
| NssOne | really big files? | 05:43 |
| Jayce | fattom - but it seems to have jumpy signal, sometiomes it drops off, then it grabs it again, it can be a PITA | 05:43 |
| Kamokow | On bootup of Ubuntu 9.10: "One or more of the mounts listed in /etc/fstab cannot yet be mounted: swap: waiting for UUID = 38e3ceaf-80al-407c-77e6-28816f527240 Press ESC to enter a Recovery Shell" | 05:43 |
| Out_Cold | Jayce, it's been better than the problems with wicd before. but that's with my laptop so yes | 05:43 |
| Rajasun | greezemunkey: heh ;) | 05:43 |
| fattom | Jayce - I haven't had the experience, but I'll definitely be on the look out for that. | 05:43 |
| SuperMiguel | i just set up a nas.. how can i test my upload and downlaod speeds to it? | 05:43 |
| Jayce | fattom - At first it was happening at work, but at work we're having issues with laptops dropping connection anyway since we integrated hardware authentication through PEAP TLS into the mix. So I excused it. I came home and its doing it at home. Not as frequently, but still dropping at times. I wanst sure what to think. | 05:44 |
| Jayce | fattom, out_cold - the only problem that really irritated me about the default network manager is I had TWO signal bars for the network I was connected to, and they each varied in signal strength and I had NO clue what was what. | 05:44 |
| fattom | Jayce - I'm awfully sure that I don't have the know how to advise on this one. WiFi is like some kind of black magic to me. | 05:44 |
| preecher | tryng to get vpn client on my ubuntu only laptop to connect to my workplace windows machine vpn server-get this message-"connection failed because there were no valid vpn secrets" | 05:44 |
| Out_Cold | Jayce, possibly to interfaces? | 05:44 |
| Out_Cold | *two | 05:45 |
| Jayce | out_cold - two... wifi interfaces?? | 05:45 |
| R1_ | Hi, I'm just here to confirm whether if it's just me or is the ubuntu forums down for everyone else aswell | 05:45 |
| Out_Cold | or a duplicate app running? | 05:45 |

| Jayce | out_cold - not sure, I hit about 5 wifi networks a day , I only noticed it at 1, Ill install network manager again and check it now. | 05:45 |
| Kamokow | ok thanks llutz, ill try that | 05:45 |

When I unplug the computer from AC power, the power manager performs the action associated with a lid close. When I close the lid, the computer does nothing.

| Nperil | im on a windows platform and i need to know where to download all the updates (on a flash drive) for ubuntu 8.04 | 05:51 |
| nicknoper | i'll just say this and hope someone answers: i just installed karmic (9.10) and for some reason it won't let me login anymore, i'm guessing it has something to do with my nvidia drivers (which don't seem to be doing much in the first place) but i can only get to my system by live cd or the ubuntu equivilant of safemode, otherwise i can't log in. please help | 05:51 |
| Jayce | hey guys - trying to uninstall wicd - but when I do it says its not installed, and uh, it is. I also cant get network manager back to my taskbar :( | 05:52 |
| Jayce | or find network manager in the menus | 05:52 |
| the_man | strange fattom i'm still on a 701eee so i'm not sure | 05:52 |
| Kamokow | Alright time to see if it worked! | 05:52 |
| NssOne | nicknoper, you get a grub menu? | 05:52 |
| nicknoper | yes i can get that | 05:52 |
| the_man | Nperil, have you downloaded unetbootin | 05:52 |
| Kamokow | (but I probably messed up horribly) | 05:52 |
| lifesengine | anyone speak fluent italian here? | 05:52 |
| the_man | it will download the latest image for you | 05:52 |
| the_man | and if your running your system off a flashdrive then just update when you booted into it? | 05:53 |
| NssOne | ok, well, i can tell you if you load one of the recovery options, you get a screen with some choices | 05:53 |
| Nperil | the_ cant say that i have | 05:53 |
| Nperil | the_man | 05:53 |
| NssOne | and you get get to a terminal with root access as one of the options | 05:53 |
| fattom | the_man: do you know what means Ubuntu uses to tell what is going on with the hardware (lid closes, AC disconnect, etc.)? | 05:53 |
| khensthoth | Jayce: How did you install wicd? Regarding network manager, have you got network-manager-gnome installed? | 05:53 |
| NssOne | if you can figure out the terminal commands to get what you need | 05:54 |
| the_man | fattom, can't say that i do.. not seasoned enough persay.. | 05:54 |
| nicknoper | is that the same as ctrl+alt+f1 at login or do i have to do something different...yes i realize this sounds noobish, but i'm just a poor windows power user, this ubuntu stuff is like greek to me | 05:54 |
| Jayce | khensthoth - I just ran sudo apt-get install wicd, it auto-removed network manager and added wicd. No, I dont have the gnome one installed cause I'm on KDE. | 05:54 |
| fattom | it's alright. Can't get bent out of shape at you for not knowing something I don't. | 05:54 |
| Jayce | wait I might have it here | 05:54 |
| greezmunkey | fatto, that would be acpi I believe | 05:55 |
| Nperil | well im trying to download all of the updates on a flash drive( ubuntu is on the hard disk of other pc) from a windows platform cause i have no net on the ubuntu platform | 05:55 |
| bllz | Does anybody know how to set Automatic Acoustic Managmenent parameters with hdparm? I have 2 harddrives in a raid array and they're LOUD. | 05:55 |
| fattom | Damn ACPI!!! Always causing trouble! | 05:55 |
| Nperil | but i dont know where to get them | 05:55 |
| NssOne | nicknoper, ah, ok, maybe it's a little complicated to get what you need | 05:55 |
| greezmunkey | fattom, acpi I belive, munged your nick earlier | 05:55 |
| Kamokow | llutz: I would like to thank you for your help good sir :) | 05:55 |
| NssOne | but if i understand you correctly, you want 8.04 update files? | 05:55 |
| Nperil | NssOne yes | 05:56 |
| === Steve[cug] is now known as ManiacMac | ||
| khensthoth | Jayce: The #kubuntu channel might be more suitable for you, but have you got the plasma-widget-network-manager installed then? | 05:56 |
| NssOne | hrmmm | 05:56 |
| bllz | Nperil: you're doing it wrong. apt-get (the package manager on ubuntu) automatically decides what needs to be updated and gets it from the repositories. It will be INSANELY annoying/difficult for you to do this mannually. If you're running ubuntu, you will need a working internet connection. | 05:56 |
| NssOne | he says he has no net | 05:56 |
| llutz | Kamokow: np | 05:56 |
| Jayce | khensthoth - no, I did not install the plasma widget network mgr. I looked in add/remove for "manager" and found knetworkmanager. It looks like it was all 1 word, I didnt know that. BTW - Im banned in kubuntu, but we'll bite our tongues on that one so I dont get banned here too :P | 05:57 |
| fattom | greezmunkey: do you think I should start looking at Ubuntu's ACPI settings, or in the BIOS? | 05:57 |
| greezmunkey | fattom, I would start here: https://launchpad.net/acpi-support | 05:57 |
| Nperil | im trying to do away with windows all together, lol | 05:57 |
| NssOne | bllz, he has no net connection on the ubuntu platform | 05:57 |
| Jayce | khensthoth - yeah, I reinstalled knetworkmanager - no dice. I dont see it in the menu at all. :( | 05:58 |
| bllz | NssOne: Yeah I saw that. I'm saying he's going to pretty much need one to make ubuntu useful/pain-free | 05:58 |
| NssOne | is there a way a live-usb could update his ubuntu for him without it being a clean install? | 05:58 |
| Nperil | bllz if i can get all the files and the info ive got all the time in the world | 05:59 |
| nicknoper | any ideas on how to solve my problem, i've already reinstalled ubuntu once today, but as soon as i did my updates i started having problems again | 05:59 |
| nonix4 | When will https://launchpad.net/bugs/492659 become public, since patch is already available? | 05:59 |
| bllz | Nperil: to be honest, I wouldn't even know where to start | 05:59 |
| fattom | greezmunkey: That was already installed, but I have no idea what to do with it. | 05:59 |
| nicknoper | i'm in no hurry, this isn't my main computer | 05:59 |
| bllz | Nperil: you can't even get to a dial-up connection? | 05:59 |
| khensthoth | Jayce: On my KDE system knetworkmanager is not installed. Doubt it is by default in Kubuntu. I've got plasma-widget-network-manager and plasma-widget-networkmanagement installed. If you install those two it should automatically install network-manager for you, and remove wicd if it's still there. | 06:00 |
| NssOne | Nperil, the solution i found for you in google is on the forums... which are down atm | 06:00 |
| Jayce | khensthoth - sudo apt-get install plasma-widget-network-manager plasma-widget-networkmanagement ?? | 06:00 |
| Nperil | bllz: sure cant | 06:00 |
| khensthoth | Jayce: Yes. | 06:00 |
| NssOne | well, the result i got from google i should say | 06:00 |
| mgsmurf84 | xk | 06:01 |
| Nperil | NssOne: thats a bad deal | 06:01 |
| chilli0 | llutz, Hey u still there | 06:01 |
| Jayce | khensthoth - I had just assumed knetworkmanager is what I had before. This was a default install as of last night, so I wasnt too sure. I only recently came to the dar(K) side :P | 06:01 |
| wrapster | during the initial boot up.. if we enter into the grub then. find / -name menu.lst | 06:01 |
| wrapster | should list the path to that file right | 06:01 |
| roy_hobbs | is ubuntuforums.org hosted by ISS? http://imgbin.org/index.php?page=image&id=1036 | 06:02 |
| roy_hobbs | That looks very MS to me | 06:02 |
| bllz | Nperil: the problem is that ubuntu really is designed around having an internet connection for these things. AFAIK this will involve devling into the aptitude database and such... i don't know the details | 06:02 |
| peterchou | ubuntu 9.10 have no menu.lst | 06:02 |
| bllz | your best bet is probably to start a thread on ubuntuforums | 06:02 |
| Jayce | khensthoth - bingo, now I have it in applications. Underneath "Network Manager" it says KNetworkManager - thats why I thought I had it before. | 06:02 |
| llutz | chilli0: ? | 06:02 |
| fattom | just a silly question: Is it possible to add words to the Ubuntu default dictionary? It's ridiculous that I have this little red line under the word "Ubuntu" | 06:02 |
| maco | roy_hobbs: that's V-Bulletin, not ISS | 06:02 |
| bllz | Nperil: but to be perfectly straight with you, It's probably a waste of time. if you're not connecting to the internet, you probably don't need the security updates | 06:02 |
| roy_hobbs | maco: it looks like the DNS errors from way back when | 06:02 |
| chilli0 | Hi llutz How can i make the terminal not exit after the program dies ? | 06:03 |
| maco | !aptoncd | bllz, Nperil | 06:03 |
| ubottu | bllz, Nperil: APTonCD is a tool with a graphical interface which allows you to create one or more CDs or DVDs with all of the packages you've downloaded via apt-get or aptitude, creating a removable repository that you can use on other computers - See also !offline | 06:03 |
| khensthoth | Nperil: Would things like this help you? http://beans.seartipy.com/2006/05/06/update-or-install-applications-on-debianubuntu-without-an-internet-connection/ | 06:03 |
| Nperil | bllz: alright, ill see what i can come up with | 06:03 |
| llutz | chilli0: man gnome-terminal | 06:03 |
| greezmunkey | fattom, have you looked into /etc/default/acpi-support yet? I mean read through the settings? | 06:03 |
| chilli0 | llutz, Big help thanks | 06:03 |
| Nperil | khensthoth: ill give it a shot,, cant hurt | 06:03 |
| fattom | greezmunkey - I'll have a look | 06:03 |
| Nperil | thanks guys!!!!!!!!! | 06:03 |
| rajeev_ | Hi, I need help in removing Karmic from a Windows7 dual boot? | 06:04 |
| chilli0 | llutz, So man gnome-terminal -e ./file2 ? | 06:04 |
| Jayce | khensthoth - just a side question, what does the little number mean over the icon for the network manager? Do you happen to know>? | 06:04 |
| bllz | Nperil: I didn't know about aptoncd. that might be something for you to look into | 06:04 |
| greezmunkey | fattom, you may have to do some experimenting | 06:04 |
| khensthoth | Jayce: Nope. GNOME user here. =) | 06:05 |
| rajeev_ | khensthoth: I hope you remember me. What I did now is installed Ubuntu 9.1 again | 06:05 |
| chilli0 | llutz, I dont know where it is in there | 06:05 |
| iain_ | rajeev_, something like. 1) Format ubuntu partition and 2) run fixmbr from Windows Recovery Mode CD | 06:05 |
| NssOne | rajeev_, you can just use a live-usb, delete the ubuntu partition, and expand the win7 partition | 06:05 |
| fattom | greezmunkey - I LOVE experimenting. That's why I'm a Linux guy! | 06:05 |
| NssOne | using gparted | 06:05 |
| marcobxbro1 | quick question if I have dual boot with linux and windows, and I delete the linux partition will it automatically see the windows boot loader | 06:05 |
| rajeev_ | I dont have windows recovery CD | 06:05 |
| iain_ | rajeev_, don't use windows so wouldn't know :s | 06:05 |
| peterchou | oh en,i find another problem , i add acpi=off ,but when i system shutdown it will be halt | 06:05 |
| Jayce | khensthoth - hey man, nothing wrong with that! Linux - the power of CHOICE. Between KDE/Gnome/XFCE/RPM/Deb/TarGZ there's enough to go around for everyone. :P | 06:05 |
| Jayce | khensthoth - I always think of it like this. We're all having a beer - just different kinds. ;) | 06:05 |
| nonix4 | peterchou: yeah, instead of menu.lst there is... bunch of files in /etc/grub.d/, as described at beginning of /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 06:05 |
| NssOne | rajeev_, use an ubuntu livecd/usb | 06:05 |
| rajeev_ | NssOne: Yes I have that | 06:06 |
| Nperil | bllz: it might give me some ideas | 06:06 |
| bllz | Nperil: sounds like a solution to your problem | 06:06 |
| NssOne | rajeev_, when it loads up, go to System->Administration->Gparted | 06:06 |
| bllz | I'd still make the ubuntuforms thread, but be sure to ask if that's a viable solution | 06:07 |
| === statler_ is now known as kwall | ||
| khensthoth | rajeev_: So you now have perfectly fine Ubuntu and Grub2? | 06:07 |
| Nperil | bllz: thanks. ttyl | 06:07 |
| NssOne | use the partition editor to delete the ubuntu installed partitions, then expand the win7 partition back to full hd space | 06:07 |
| rajeev_ | Yes | 06:07 |
| iain_ | rajeev_, I presume you cna just run this in Windows: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927392 | 06:07 |
| NssOne | that's how you can delete ubuntu from your system | 06:07 |
| NssOne | then yeah, you would need to write windows to the mbr again | 06:08 |
| iain_ | bootrec /FixMbr | 06:08 |
| peterchou | so there's no perfect solve this problem/ | 06:09 |
| kwall | speaking of ubuntuforums, they seem to have a database problem just now | 06:09 |
| rajeev_ | NssOne: Just this will do the trick http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927392 ? | 06:09 |
| nicknoper | maybe i should just downgrade...9.04 never did this to me | 06:09 |
| NssOne | thatll fix your mbr | 06:09 |
| Jayce | I downgraded all of my systems to 9.04 :( | 06:10 |
| iain_ | kwall, ah, compiledkernel is probably to blame there ... I'll look into it ;) | 06:10 |
| nicknoper | i like karmic's gui better though | 06:10 |
| Rajasun | Jayce: You do not have needed to | 06:10 |
| NssOne | i should dg to 9.04 also, since 9.10 is giving me these graphics issues | 06:10 |
| peterchou | I prefer to use new things | 06:10 |
| Jayce | rajasun - I had no choice, man | 06:10 |
| NssOne | rajeev_, you still need to remove ubuntu from your drive | 06:10 |
| nicknoper | NssOne: what graphics card do you have? | 06:10 |
| NssOne | it's an intel gma 945 i believe, for a netbook | 06:11 |
| Jayce | rajasun - on 3 of my desktops I run with multiple hard drives. 2 drives, 2 drives, and 4 drives in my 3 desktops. All 3 of them failed to recognize the drives properly with karmic. Karmic kept thinking they were raid, and 1 PC it just didnt detect anything besides the main drive. | 06:11 |
| NssOne | i can only get low res 800x600, which is lame on a 1024x768 screen | 06:11 |
| iain_ | kwall, The slave database server crashed - again =/ | 06:11 |
| Jayce | rajasun - I've had several data failures. Backup drives with redundancy is a MUUUUUST. Karmic failed before I even got to use it heavily. | 06:11 |
| kwall | iain_, that sucks | 06:11 |
| Jayce | rajasun - then when I put Kubuntu on my laptop, I put Kubuntu Karmic on it. Every time I installed the broadcom wifi driver, it would crash, completely, each time. :( | 06:12 |
| nicknoper | so the graphics related issues are just 9.10 related and not brand related, i have a nvidia tnt2 in a desktop | 06:12 |
| Rajasun | Jayce: hmm | 06:12 |
| kwall | nicknoper, wow, tnt2? That's ancient. | 06:12 |
| Rajasun | Jayce: You said you had Ubuntu Jaunty on previously am I right? | 06:12 |
| Jayce | rajasun - dont get me wrong, I love *buntu man, much love to the developers, but karmic just wasnt a home run like the other versions were. | 06:12 |
| iain_ | kwall, at least it wasn't as bad as last year. We were hosted behind a proxy server that crashed once every week/2 weeks. | 06:12 |
| Jayce | rajasun - Im running jaunty on ALL of my machines now. | 06:12 |
| nicknoper | lol i had an extra desktop laying around and i wanted to try ubuntu | 06:12 |
| Rajasun | Jayce: No previously | 06:13 |
| hyperstream | whats wrong with karmic ?! | 06:13 |
| kwall | nicknoper, the 20th century called and wants its GPU back. :) | 06:13 |
| Jayce | rajasun - Im not sure I understand what you mean...? I'm on 9.04.. | 06:13 |
| Rajasun | Jayce: Did you tried to do a dist-upgrade from your previous Jaunty install to karmic? | 06:13 |
| nicknoper | lol | 06:13 |
| hyperstream | only issue i have is cant have two monitors on this laptop (intel) just get black screens | 06:13 |
| Jayce | rajasun - oh no way man | 06:14 |
| s0undt3ch | hello ppl | 06:14 |
| Jayce | fresh installs all the way | 06:14 |
| nicknoper | kwall: thats fine, it can have it back solong as it gives me a new one in return | 06:14 |
| s0undt3ch | how can I shut-up apt about unmet deps for a specific package? | 06:14 |
| Rajasun | Jayce: I have been dist-upgrading since 7.10 gutsy | 06:14 |
| Jayce | rajasun - I could probably try that, maybe it'd get me around the hard drive issue. | 06:14 |
| andy_l_ | Is there a way to mount a filesystem in a normal file - kind of like how virtualbox creates a virtual filesystem inside a vdi file ?? | 06:14 |
| Jayce | rajasun - but at the same token, 9.04 is solid, very solid, so I really have no "need" for karmic. | 06:14 |
| llutz | chilli0: use "xterm -hold -e cmd" if gnome-terminal doesn't do what your want | 06:15 |
| Madpilot | s0undt3ch, you generally don't want to... | 06:15 |
| nicknoper | but karmic LOOKS better! | 06:15 |
| chilli0 | K tahnks | 06:15 |
| lint | hello world | 06:15 |
| kwall | nicknoper, just bustin' yer chops. I ran a Matrox G400, IIRC, well into 2002 | 06:15 |
| lint | i love / | 06:15 |
| Jayce | I dont see how karmic looks any better. I just dump a theme on any linux OS I use anyway and run with it. | 06:15 |
| Jayce | karmic may look better than jaunty out of box, but like I said, gnome/kde-look.org, and it doesn't matter anyway :P | 06:16 |
| travalas | anybody know what's up with ubuntu forums? | 06:16 |
| s0undt3ch | Madpilot: I know, but in this specifica case, I do want to, but how? | 06:16 |
| NssOne | they be down | 06:16 |
| Rajasun | Jayce: There are some quirks, some minor irritatons but they aren't a bother a few dpkg tricks resolves them all. And fwiw, I don't use GUI tools for dist-upgrades. I trust only aptitude. :P | 06:16 |
| Jayce | travalas - no idea bro, they down :( | 06:16 |
| kwall | travalas, I read earlier that the slave db server crashed | 06:16 |
| nonix4 | Jayce: well, jaunty still has no ssh-agent with working ssh-agent support, unlike hardy/intrepid/karmic? | 06:17 |
| Jayce | rajasun - I hear that bro. I dont expect to ever use karmic, to be honest. I run karmic on my spare desktop here so I could test out gnome shell (total barf, btw) but besides that I avoid it. I'm sure the devs are more focused on the upcoming LTS anyway, and I really cant blame them. | 06:17 |
| kwall | someone's working on it as we speak, so to sepak | 06:17 |
| nicknoper | kwall: nothing wrong with that, i had an ancient toshiba infinia with a 2 gig hd, win98se, and lets just say i owned calculators that had more ram than it up until probably 2003ish | 06:17 |
| Jayce | nonix4 - not sure? I dont really use ssh. I tried it once but that was it. | 06:17 |
| nonix4 | *with working forwarding support | 06:17 |

(as of 0600 UTC, at least) | ||
| rob_p | No doubt, the forums will be back up soon. | 06:17 |
| Rajasun | Jayce: You are free to choose...it is your choice...if Jaunty works fine for you, sure, by all means stick to it | 06:17 |
| chilli0 | llutz, Is there the same thing for gnome terminal ? | 06:17 |
| Jayce | rajasun - yeah, dont get me wrong... <3 *buntu, but karmic just didnt play nice with my hardware. I gave it 4 chances and each one failed. :( | 06:18 |
| Rajasun | Jayce: yeah perhaps when it is time for the next LTS...you can consider performing a dist-upgrade then | 06:18 |
| what | very good words Rajasun | 06:18 |
| what | linux is indeed about choice | 06:18 |
| Rajasun | what: heh | 06:18 |
| Jayce | rajasun - like I said earlier | 06:18 |
| Jayce | rajasun - we're all drinking beer, just different kinds | 06:19 |
| what | personally i cannot recomomend highly enough skipping this release | 06:19 |
| plytheman | Can someone help me with samba? I'm on crunchbang trying to access a windows network drive and smbtree is insisting it's not installed and nothing I try with samba works... | 06:19 |
| what | the fact of the matter is this was 6 months from being ready. | 06:19 |
| greezmunkey | Rajasun, 10.something will be the next LTS - is that still true? | 06:19 |
| Jayce | 10.04, yes | 06:19 |
| Jayce | its true | 06:19 |
| what | if you MUST install this version of this distro, PLEASE USE A SEPERATE VAR | 06:19 |
| Jayce | and a single hard drive :P | 06:19 |
| what | i'd say around 50% of the systems ive tried have that bug | 06:19 |
| what | Jayce: no thats not needeed | 06:19 |
| Rajasun | Jayce: Yeah...this is what Linux and Open Source is all about or should be - Respecting the choice of the individual user and we do most of the time that is | 06:20 |
| Jayce | what - sure it is | 06:20 |
| what | for that you do the install, boot with disk to first partition, and run grub from os | 06:20 |
| nicknoper | so, in anyones personal opinion should i dg to 9.04 or ug to 10.04 beta? | 06:20 |
| Jayce | what - karmic didnt detect the backup hdd's in any of my systems | 06:20 |
| what | from os you then choose option to install grub2 on ALL disks, and your good | 06:20 |
| nicknoper | cus karmic is not working out | 06:20 |
| warinthepocket | is there a -n type option for scp like there is for cp? | 06:20 |
| Jayce | rajasun - yeah bro, I hear that | 06:20 |
| Rajasun | greezmunkey: 10.04 that is...yeah | 06:20 |
| what | Jayce: you mean fdisk -l as root doesnt see them? | 06:20 |
| nonix4 | what: separate var for...? Haven't encountered any data-loss things yet. | 06:20 |
| NssOne | so, anybody else forced to use low-res mode in karmic? | 06:20 |
| nonix4 | (with separater var) | 06:20 |
| Jayce | what - it sees them, but I cant mount them with fstab | 06:20 |
| what | nonix4: /var/log specifically | 06:21 |
| peterchou | who can help me, when i use usb device i cant boot my ubuntu, when i usb acpi=off in grub ,it can boot ,however my cpu fan will always run ,and when i shutdown my computer,it will be system halt? it's headache | 06:21 |
| what | it gets tossed open, full, fills and dosses you out of / | 06:21 |
| hyperstream | nicknoper, if your looking for something thats more reliable what would you guess? | 06:21 |
| what | mostly pulse/alsa fuckups | 06:21 |
| what | screwups sorry, very vehament on this one thing | 06:21 |
| Rajasun | greezmunkey: 10.10 will be the release that is likely to feature GNOME 3.0 with GNOME Shell, Zeitgeist, mutter and all | 06:21 |
| greezmunkey | Rajasun, well I'm glad I listened to all the advice here and created a seperate /home :) seein as a dist upgrade is in my immediate future :) | 06:21 |
| NssOne | 800x600 on a 16:9 screen sucks | 06:21 |
| holmser | is there a way to undelete files on ubuntu? | 06:21 |
| what | greezmunkey: thats rule 0 | 06:21 |
| what | greezmunkey: that way you can keep user data and reinstall | 06:21 |
| greezmunkey | yup | 06:22 |
| what | its the same on windows; move profiles to d:\ | 06:22 |
| Rajasun | greezmunkey: heh good for you :) | 06:22 |
| nicknoper | see i would dg and have no problem, but i can put a theme on there because of my ancient grapics card and i like the look of karmics gu | 06:22 |
| hyperstream | peterchou, it will system halt ? as in shut down when you tell it to shutdown? | 06:22 |
| nonix4 | what: hmm seen them spam sometimes as well as apparmor... but guess I'm lucky with only 20 megs shown by du -sk | 06:22 |
| kwall | Had /home on its own partition since, oh, 1995 | 06:22 |
| what | nonix4: run: | 06:22 |
| Rajasun | greezmunkey: I'm an old schooler...I have separate partitions for /, /var, /tmp, /home, etc | 06:22 |
| nicknoper | maybe i should learn to type | 06:22 |
| plytheman | does anyone know what I need to install to get smbtree? I swear it worked last night and now my terminal claims I don't have that program | 06:22 |
| peterchou | ya | 06:22 |
| greezmunkey | Rajasun, like I said, I try to learn something every time (ps thanks everyone) | 06:22 |
| hyperstream | nicknoper, so pick, a nice GUI or something that works for you ... | 06:22 |
| what | skype/pidgin/audio player/firefox, constantly | 06:22 |
| what | enjoy ;) | 06:22 |
| what | tail -f /var/log/syslog or of course messages or even user.log | 06:23 |
| llutz | plytheman: smbclient | 06:23 |
| what | [meaning thats where the errors show up] | 06:23 |
| nicknoper | see, thats what i was saying, i can't pick a nice gui because my graphics card is too old to support a custom one, either that or i'm too stupid to put one on | 06:23 |
| s0undt3ch | Madpilot: is there a way? | 06:23 |
| Rajasun | greezmunkkey: We are constantly learning new things from everyone everyday including here on this network | 06:23 |
| hyperstream | nicknoper, so you know the answer to the question ?, so what are you saying lol ?, or what are you trying to ask ? | 06:24 |
| plytheman | llutz, thanks, I've installed so much smb stuff and none of it has seemed to be working, hopefully this works now,,, | 06:24 |
| peterchou | hyperstrean: 3 weeks till i install ubuntu 9.10 ,i haven't find a way to solve this problem | 06:24 |
| greezmunkey | nicknoper, see if you can get a supported card, maybe a trade or something...:/ | 06:24 |
| Madpilot | s0undt3ch, I think so, but can't remember details. Not a recommended procedure, usually, but you seem to know that... | 06:24 |
| peterchou | hyperstream : and i ask for help to irc | 06:25 |
| nicknoper | lemme install 9.04 and i'll get back to you on that one | 06:25 |
| llutz | plytheman: apt-file search smbtree -> smbclient: /usr/bin/smbtree | 06:25 |
| hyperstream | peterchou, the system is suposed to halt when you 'Shut it down', as to your other issues, i am unsure about them, sorry mate | 06:25 |
| plytheman | I did smbtree and it asked for a password, so I put in my root password and it did nothing =S | 06:25 |
| s0undt3ch | Madpilot: I needed to install a java sdk on a headless setup which did not required all the X packages it was pulling | 06:25 |
| llutz | plytheman: smbtree is in package "smbclient" | 06:26 |
| peterchou | hyperstream:think you the some all | 06:26 |
| greezmunkey | plytheman, that just means samba didn't see any MS networks, are you running a firewall? | 06:26 |
| workstation | /dev/sdb does not have any corresponding BIOS drive. | 06:26 |
| plytheman | llutz, I installed smbclient just now, asked for my pass but returned nothing | 06:26 |
| nicknoper | i'm gonna go read me some userfriendly comics i'll be back later with what i'm sure will be another supid question | 06:26 |
| plytheman | greezmunkey, not that I know of... | 06:26 |
| llutz | plytheman: sry i'm not using samba/smb | 06:26 |
| archana | tu.com | 06:27 |
| plytheman | llutz, all good, thanks anyway | 06:27 |
| jennie | I am running ubuntu 9.04 and if i upgrade to 9.10 from update manager then how much files size ubuntu will download to update to 9.10 ? | 06:27 |
| archana | hi | 06:27 |
| greezmunkey | plytheman, in a terminal sudo iptables -L, if you get three "empty" catagories, then you are not. | 06:27 |
| archana | where in home is the bookmarks of firefox ? | 06:27 |
| greezmunkey | eh or it's not working ;) | 06:27 |
| kwall | archana, $HOME/.mozilla/firefox/mumble | 06:28 |
| kwall | where "mumble" is your profile name | 06:28 |
| vimpulse | archana: why do you ask? | 06:28 |
| plytheman | greezmunkey, it says: Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) tafget prot opt source destination | 06:28 |
| peterchou | i have download ubuntu 9.10 ,it's about 700MB so i think i wont be so large | 06:28 |
| plytheman | *target | 06:28 |
| plytheman | greezmunkey, says that three times, does that count as empty? | 06:29 |
| greezmunkey | plytheman, yes | 06:29 |
| vimpulse | peterchou: your last line didn't make sense. Please rephrase it more clearly. Or would you like us to refer you to an IRC channel where you can speak your first language? | 06:29 |
| Rajasun | jennie: Can't remember...depends on how many packages you already have installed on your system, some may have become obseleted since 9.04, others may rhave acquired new, additional dependences and then there are also your new apps...probably a few hundred MBs...not sure | 06:29 |
| jennie | Rajasun, could you tell me apprx time ? | 06:30 |
| peterchou | vimpulse: | 06:30 |
| greezmunkey | plytheman, are you trying to connect to a windows box? | 06:30 |
| peterchou | vimpulse:ok | 06:30 |
| vimpulse | peterchou: what is your first language? | 06:30 |
| plytheman | greezmunkey, yes | 06:30 |
| peterchou | chinese | 06:30 |
| archana | what is the command to REINstall firefox ? | 06:31 |
| Rajasun | jennie: it depends...probably about 2 hours...depending on things like internet connection, ram, cpu, etc | 06:31 |
| vimpulse | archana: again, why do you ask? | 06:31 |
| archana | vimpulse, my firefox-3.6 is no more working | 06:31 |
| archana | vimpulse, command to reinstall firefox ? | 06:31 |
| vimpulse | archana: what's not working? | 06:31 |
| vimpulse | !tell peterchou about zh | 06:31 |
| ubottu | peterchou, please see my private message | 06:31 |
| archana | vimpulse, firefox-3.6 | 06:31 |
| chilli0 | llutz, Is there the same thing for gnome terminal ? | 06:32 |
| greezmunkey | plytheman, on the winbox, open a dos window and type net config workstation, it should show you what the winbox is configured for. Additionally "net view" should show you its shares. Do this to make sure it's configured correctly first! | 06:32 |
| archana | command to reinstall firefox ? | 06:32 |
| vimpulse | archana: you are repeating far too often. | 06:32 |
| vimpulse | archana: sorry, you aren't giving me enough information about the problem. I am busy and can't help you very much now.\ | 06:32 |
| vimpulse | Can anyone help archana figure out what is wrong with his/her Fx 3.6? | 06:32 |
| davep | hmm, my ath5k card is refusing to go into master mode, even though the 2.6.31 kernel is meant to support it | 06:32 |
| llutz | chilli0: i don't know, if theres nothing in the man-page, i doubt it | 06:32 |
| Cuddles | question why is it when i name@name:~$ cd /dev is that file spose to be full of files? | 06:33 |
| davep | is there an (easy) way to upgrade to a 2.6.32 kernel? | 06:33 |
| chilli0 | k darmn | 06:33 |
| llutz | chilli0: whats wrong with xterm? | 06:33 |
| Cuddles | I dont remember it being that full | 06:33 |
| maco | Cuddles: that directory is virtual. those filepointers are how software accesses devices on your computer | 06:33 |
| maco | Cuddles: its actually less full in 9.10 than in, say, 6.06 | 06:33 |
| plytheman | greezmunkey, before I go look, I know there are folders set to 'share' on it, and last night even I ran smbtree and could see my network. though I couldn't mount it for the life of me. Now tonight even smbtree doesn't want to work. The only thing I've done today was install Tor but I can't figure how that would mess up samba | 06:33 |
| Cuddles | so its spose to be full | 06:34 |
| Rajasun | davep: there is but I'm not too sure if that is really what you want. There are a few ppa repos. But if the current kernel works fine for you, stick to it. It is the officially supported one. | 06:34 |
| plytheman | greezmunkey, dunno if any of that helps or changes anything | 06:34 |
| Cuddles | cuz its got tons of files in it... ptyb1,ptyb2 | 06:34 |
| Cuddles | etc | 06:34 |
| maco | Cuddles: yes. every hard disk, every tty, etc. ... all in there | 06:34 |
| Delta__ | Does ALSA utilize alot of CPU cycles for anyone else here? | 06:34 |
| Cuddles | I see | 06:34 |
| kwall | archana: sudo apt-get install --reinstall firefox-3.6 | 06:34 |
| maco | Cuddles: theyre nto files that actually take up space | 06:34 |
| vimpulse | Delta__: what is the problem? Make sure to prefix "vimpulse: " first, as I am not watching my screen. | 06:34 |
| maco | Cuddles: just a way of representing all your system's devices | 06:34 |
| Delta__ | Oh, and I removed PulseAudio from my system | 06:34 |
| vimpulse | kwall: do you really think that will help archana fix his/her problem? :) | 06:35 |
| davep | unsupported kernels dont bother me | 06:35 |
| Cuddles | ohh I see | 06:35 |
| kwall | archana, but what exactly isn't working in firefox ? | 06:35 |
| davep | but ap mode would simplify things | 06:35 |
| kwall | vimpulse, no, it won't help, but it will answer his/her question | 06:35 |
| Rajasun | davep: then check launchpad | 06:35 |
| Cuddles | just did df and was wondering why some files were changing size | 06:35 |
| Cuddles | with out me adding files to them | 06:35 |
| davep | alright thanks | 06:35 |
| meowbuntu | hi | 06:35 |
| maco | Cuddles: /proc and /sys are also virtual | 06:35 |
| Cuddles | maybe its my imagination | 06:35 |
| Rajasun | davep: you have been warned though | 06:35 |
| vimpulse | kwall: I still think your second line was the right thing to say, not your first line with the apt-get command in it. :) | 06:35 |
| davep | :D | 06:35 |
| meowbuntu | i need the terminal command that displays my os info please | 06:35 |
| greezmunkey | plytheman, uh unfamiliar with any possible interactions between tor and windows networking. Disable tor and try again. | 06:35 |
| Delta__ | vimpulse: I'm programming with libao, and it looks like, since I removed PulseAudio from my system that it's costing more for Audio Output | 06:36 |
| Rajasun | :P | 06:36 |
| vimpulse | meowbuntu: what info? why? | 06:36 |
| vimpulse | Delta__: is your computer too slow to use now? | 06:36 |
| Cuddles | I have so much to learn lol | 06:36 |
| greezmunkey | meowbuntu, uname -r | 06:36 |
| NssOne | so, anybody getting low-res only display with karmic? i'm using a netbook with intel gma 945 video | 06:36 |
| meowbuntu | vimpulse, general info. such as partitions size. os types ect. | 06:36 |
| chilli0 | llutz, Dont like the look lol | 06:36 |
| NssOne | can't do anything other than 800x600 | 06:36 |
| Delta__ | vimpulse: no, but it's not very nice for the audio driver to use 7-10% of the CPU | 06:37 |
| kwall | NssOne, not here. | 06:37 |
| vimpulse | Delta__: but if you have CPU cycles to spare, then why do you care? :) | 06:37 |
| plytheman | greezmunkey, sure enough, killed tor and smbtree returned the box I'm looking for. Weird... | 06:37 |
| kwall | NssOne: Any useful clues in /var/log/Xorg.0.log? | 06:37 |
| NssOne | kwall, you using a netbook of any kind? | 06:37 |
| NssOne | kwall, one sec | 06:37 |
| kwall | Yes, $dayjob | 06:37 |
| === patrick is now known as Guest38031 | ||
| mokmeister | Anybody come across a fix for slow firefox 3.5.5 on 9.10 AMD64? | 06:37 |
| maco | Cuddles: if you wanna learn about /proc and /sys look at procfs and sysfs in google | 06:38 |
| llutz | chilli0: i prefer working tools, not fancy looking dummies :) | 06:38 |
| Delta__ | vimpulse: because I'm trying to make this program as invisible on the system resources as possible | 06:38 |
| vimpulse | meowbuntu: you only answered one of my two questions. Until you answer the second, I definitely can't help you. :) | 06:38 |
| vimpulse | Delta__: why? | 06:38 |
| skyl | mokmeister, chromium on 32 bit >:| | 06:38 |
| Cuddles | Ill do that thanks | 06:38 |
| chilli0 | llutz, Ill use it thoe heh | 06:38 |
| greezmunkey | plytheman, windows "security" generally wants a client name or something, is your winbox running windows firewall? | 06:38 |
| Guest38031 | hi | 06:38 |
| Delta__ | vimpulse: because I run Folding@Home | 06:38 |
| sudo_nano | hello | 06:38 |
| skyl | I guess that would fall in the work-around category | 06:38 |
| NssOne | Fatal server error: | 06:38 |
| NssOne | no screens found | 06:38 |
| mokmeister | skyl ;) | 06:38 |
| vimpulse | Guest38031: please change your nickname. /nick NewNickname | 06:38 |
| meowbuntu | greezmunkey, not enough info. | 06:38 |
| Delta__ | vimpulse: and because I like playing games, and not being lagged down by the audio driver | 06:39 |
| sudo_nano | i am having problems with my networking | 06:39 |
| greezmunkey | meowbuntu, what else do you need? | 06:39 |
| vimpulse | Delta__: it is still not worth it to spend your time just to speed up Folding@Home. If the games go at too slow an FPS, then come back and ask us for help again. :) | 06:39 |
| Delta__ | vimpulse: I just find it odd that the audio driver would be using that much anyways | 06:39 |
| greezmunkey | meowbuntu, try uname -a | 06:39 |
| plytheman | greezmunkey, it's my brothers box, I'd assume its got the default firewall on it. I just tried to run: smbmount smb:\\THESTATION\Public /mnt/the_station/ and it told me it couldn't resolve the address | 06:40 |
| Delta__ | vimpulse: is there an IRC channel for ALSA? | 06:40 |
| vimpulse | Delta__: we are always low on supporter time, and so to diagnose that would not be an ideal use of our time. I don't know. /msg alis list *alsa* | 06:40 |
| Delta__ | vimpulse: because this bugs be greatly | 06:40 |
| greezmunkey | plytheman, you will need to install winbind for that to work | 06:40 |
| xrx | meowbuntu: for the ubuntu version info (not in uname to my knowledge): cat /etc/issue | 06:40 |
| kwall | NssOne: Seems like the proper driver for the Intel graphics mightn't be loaded. | 06:40 |
| Rajasun | Delta__: there is at #alsa | 06:40 |
| greezmunkey | plytheman, google it and read up on it forst though. | 06:40 |
| Delta__ | vimpulse: Thanks for your time | 06:41 |
| greezmunkey | first | 06:41 |
| sudo_nano | OK, so this is my interfaces file http://pastebin.com/d53cc7721 | 06:41 |
| vimpulse | Delta__: you are welcome. I suggest, again, that you not spend the Alsa channel's time either. | 06:41 |
| sudo_nano | and it will only work with wlan for about 10 seconds then stop | 06:41 |
| D4e5 | hello | 06:41 |
| plytheman | greezmunkey, lol, just installed it... could it be bad without reading up on it first? | 06:41 |
| D4e5 | Madpilot | 06:41 |
| greezmunkey | plytheman, I guess that depends...lol | 06:41 |
| Madpilot | D4e5, yes? | 06:42 |
| D4e5 | are forums down ? | 06:42 |
| sudo_nano | D4e5, i think so | 06:42 |
| greezmunkey | !topic > D4e5 | 06:42 |
| ubottu | D4e5, please see my private message | 06:42 |
| BalSak | !ubuntuforums | 06:42 |
| ubottu | The Ubuntu forums can be found at http://www.ubuntuforums.org. There is also a channel on IRC Freenode #ubuntuforums. | 06:42 |
| greezmunkey | whoa it worked hehe | 06:42 |
| BalSak | uf offline? | 06:42 |
| sudo_nano | anyone can help with my networking issue?? | 06:43 |
| Delta__ | vimpulse: I see this as a major flaw in the system, unless the audio driver is supposed to eat cpu like this | 06:43 |
| BalSak | sudo_nano: wazup? | 06:43 |
| kwall | sudo_nano, so, the wired interface keeps working? | 06:43 |
| D4e5 | I apologize Madpilot to disturb you | 06:43 |
| vimpulse | greezmunkey: xrx: you are telling meowbuntu various commands without finding out why he needs "general OS info". Also, he didn't even tell *me* why he needs it, even after I asked. I think it is not worth it to continue trying to answer such an ill-defined question. :) | 06:43 |
| sudo_nano | kwall, no the wlan does for 10 senconds and the eth0 not at all | 06:43 |
| sudo_nano | this is my file http://pastebin.com/d53cc7721 | 06:44 |
| greezmunkey | vimpulse, those were off the top and such, no sweat to me :) | 06:44 |
| sudo_nano | i am temp using dhcp on eth0 | 06:44 |
| BalSak | if ubuntuforums offline? | 06:44 |
| kwall | !topic > BalSak | 06:44 |
| ubottu | BalSak, please see my private message | 06:44 |
| vimpulse | Delta__: I think you shouldn't worry unless you are low on CPU. Maybe it's because of something *you* are doing with libao. Supporters' time is valuable, and unless your games are running at low FPS, you are spending other people's (supporters') time I think unnecessarily. | 06:44 |
| oldtopman | balsak someone e,se asked tn | 06:44 |
| robbmunson | This isnt the place to ask about the forums, a more fitting place would possibly be #ubuntuforums :) | 06:45 |
| kwall | sudo_nano, the interfaces look fine | 06:45 |
| BalSak | thanks | 06:45 |
| robbmunson | I mean the status of the forums... | 06:45 |
| sudo_nano | kwall, thats one i sort of use on another computer, but i have updated the static IPs to suite one, | 06:45 |
| jennie | I got ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso, how can i upgrade to 9.20 from 9.04 ??? | 06:45 |
| sudo_nano | kwall, would you mind a PM? | 06:46 |
| kwall | sudo_nano, not at all | 06:46 |
| kwall | kind of noisy in here | 06:46 |
| BalSak | mk | 06:46 |
| BalSak | bb | 06:46 |
| vimpulse | jennie: your question contains a mistake. Fix it then try asking the channel again. :) | 06:46 |
| Delta__ | vimpulse: I value CPU time, I would hope the Ubuntu devs think the same | 06:46 |
| llutz | jennie: there's no 9.20, and 20 -> 04 would be a downgrade, which is nearly impossible | 06:47 |
| jennie | *dorry its 9.10 | 06:47 |
| jennie | *sorry | 06:47 |
| llutz | jennie: sry from 04, | 06:47 |
| plytheman | well, I can't see the smbtree anymore... whats the easiest way to mount a network drive from a windows box? this is starting to drive me nuts | 06:47 |
| vimpulse | Delta__: human time is more valuable than CPU time. And again, your problem is probably only on your PC, not on all Alsa users' PCs. | 06:47 |
| greezmunkey | vimpulse, :/ | 06:47 |
| workstation | I am running grub-install /dev/sdb2, which is a extended partition, which has sdb5 and sdb6 for logical partitions so where does the grub information get stored. it is a external hd by thw way | 06:47 |
| O__o | hi guys, which program is best at creating vector graphics like eps file? | 06:47 |
| vimpulse | greezmunkey: what? | 06:47 |
| llutz | jennie: afaik you cannot upgrade using the live cd, just reinstall | 06:47 |
| jennie | llutz, i have ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso not alternate cd , do i need to download the alternate cd for upgrading? | 06:48 |
| vimpulse | llutz: why suggest reinstalling without suggesting using the Ubuntu updates manager to upgrade? | 06:48 |
| robbmunson | jennie: you can only upgrade using the -alternate iso.... | 06:48 |
| oldtopman | llutz, cant you upgrade through update manager | 06:48 |
| robbmunson | so yes jennie :) | 06:48 |
| llutz | vimpulse: i haven't suggested anything at all | 06:48 |
| plytheman | 0__0, inkscape seems good, but im no graphic designer so that's my best guess | 06:48 |
| robbmunson | jennie: or you can do an in place upgrade using the tools provided in Ubuntu itself without downloading an ISO. | 06:48 |
| robbmunson | !upgrade | 06:48 |
| ubottu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 06:48 |
| jennie | whats the difference between alternate cd and live CD , although both are under 700mb | 06:48 |
| plytheman | O__o, inkscape seems good, but I've never used it, so I can't say for sure | 06:48 |
| vimpulse | llutz: ah. I misinterpreted your two words "just reinstall". I see they are about what she *can* do with her CD, not what she *should* do. | 06:48 |
| llutz | vimpulse: that's it | 06:49 |
| oldtopman | plytheman alt install has no windo wanager bootup so runs in 196mb of ram | 06:49 |
| vimpulse | plytheman: perhaps Inkscape or Adobe Illustrator run in WINE. Go to #inkscape, tell them what you need to draw, and what tools you are used to, and see what they say. | 06:49 |
| robbmunson | jennie: one contains a full working clone of Ubuntu in which you can use "right now" and one you must install before youre able to fully utilise its features. | 06:49 |
| SeaPhor | vimpulse, why dont you just answer the ppl asking for support? | 06:50 |
| robbmunson | jennie: amongst other things (but this is the main difference) | 06:50 |
| vimpulse | SeaPhor: I didn't talk directly to jennie because llutz was already talking to her. | 06:50 |
| timmy_ | why does my mouse disapear every time http cache cleaner runs | 06:50 |
| vimpulse | SeaPhor: I left it up to llutz what to advise her. | 06:50 |
| plytheman | oldtopman, not sure what you mean | 06:50 |
| jennie | robbmunson :- alternate is the full working clone and liv cd is'must install before to use fully ' ??? | 06:50 |
| vimpulse | timmy_: dunno. Why would you want to use an "http cache cleaner" tool anyway though? Just curious. | 06:50 |
| arooni-mobile2 | hi folks! having trouble mounting /dev/md1 as my home partition. md1 is a raid 1-0 device across two hard drives. running karmic. i changed nothing except for the locatoin of the PC (moved it without dropping it). now when i try to mount /dev/md1 i see: "EXT3-fs: unable to read spuerblock; mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/mda1" .... what should i do now? | 06:51 |
| greezmunkey | timmy_, maybe a problem when the pointer changes to the spinner? | 06:51 |
| vimpulse | greezmunkey: what did "vimpulse, :/" mean? | 06:51 |
| oldtopman | plytheman, talking from a ds gimme a min | 06:51 |
| plytheman | oldtopman, sure thing, no rush | 06:51 |
| === arooni-mobile2 is now known as arooni-mobile | ||
| timmy_ | nah i got a spinner all good | 06:51 |
| artscience | anyone familiar with triple booting on a macbook? | 06:51 |
| greezmunkey | timmy_, not sure past that though... | 06:51 |
| robbmunson | jennie: you reversed my statement... Live CD is a perfect working clone of an install, you dont HAVE to install it to the hard drive for it to give you a desktop...the alternate is just the opposite. | 06:51 |
| elconsulto | does anyone know how to get a usb gamepad working in 9.10? | 06:52 |
| vimpulse | !anyone > artscience | 06:52 |
| ubottu | artscience, please see my private message | 06:52 |
| timmy_ | idk even know what http cache cleaner is.. i assumed it was a built in service or something | 06:52 |
| vimpulse | artscience: :) | 06:52 |
| artscience | I have an older intel based macbook. I got a new harddrive, already installed mac osx used boot camp to install a windows xp partition, then used ipartition to split the mac partition into two HFS and 40gb of free space | 06:52 |
| vimpulse | timmy_: I don't know what it is. Where did you see it? What does it look like? | 06:52 |
| artscience | the free space is supposed to be for ubuntu | 06:52 |
| artscience | I want to be careful to install this correctly and make sure GRUB is installed on the partition (since I'm using rEFIt) as I'm not keen to reinstalling everything I just did (I've already had to do that from a previously failed method) | 06:53 |
| davep | hmm. lilo needs to be re-run, even though /vmlinuz is a symlink | 06:53 |
| LanSiir | plytheman, the regular install boots gnome | 06:53 |
| timmy_ | nothing.. it just shows a "starting http cache cleaner" on the taskbar and then when that disapears my pointer cums back | 06:53 |
| * davep should have used grub. | 06:53 | |
| LanSiir | then an installer app a la osx installer | 06:54 |
| greezmunkey | artscience, off topic, but quick: how long to installl osx? | 06:54 |
| vimpulse | timmy_: how long does it take until the mouse comes back? | 06:54 |
| artscience | about an hour | 06:54 |
| plytheman | LanSiir, I'm on openbox right now, running Crunchbang which, as I understand it, is a light version of ubuntu | 06:54 |
| robbmunson | jennie: have I fulfilled your query with a fitting response? | 06:54 |
| LanSiir | greezo | 06:54 |
| davep | 2.6.32 loading... | 06:54 |
| artscience | maybe a little more | 06:54 |
| LanSiir | greezmonkey 2-3hr | 06:54 |
| timmy_ | vimpulse, as soon as the taskbar button goes away | 06:54 |
| LanSiir | on ppc mac | 06:54 |
| davep | booted! | 06:54 |
| vimpulse | timmy_: If it only causes you a few seconds of inconvenience, then please do not ask us about the mouse disappearing. Yes, it's a problem, but we need to focus on more severe problems from other people. | 06:55 |
| davep | everything working. wireless ap mode still not working. | 06:55 |

| artscience | should I use ipartition to format the free space I reserved for ubuntu to fat32? | 06:58 |
| eylisian | Sparkie: both are best run against a pretty recent if not new install if possible. | 06:58 |

| RSMITH16384 | anyone get a login screen here? ftp://98.119.102.121 | 06:58 |
| davep | honestly, viruses wouldnt target ubuntu because almost everyone uses windows/mac. | 06:59 |
| nevart | you guys are talking about a virus that hits linux? | 06:59 |
| khensthoth | RSMITH16384: Sure. | 06:59 |

| eylisian | davep: just botherders looking for servers. | 06:59 |
| davep | if you paint a target on your head | 06:59 |
| llutz | virusses aren't a problem for *nix yet, rootkits and misconfigured services are | 07:00 |
| davep | then maybe there might be a rootkit | 07:00 |
| eylisian | davep: slow ssh brute force attacks and a rootkit later. | 07:00 |
| khensthoth | RSMITH16384: Login prompt asking me for Login and Password | 07:00 |
| davep | heh | 07:00 |
| artscience | why unless I use windoze? | 07:00 |
| * eylisian shrugs | 07:00 | |
| RSMITH16384 | sweet | 07:00 |
| artscience | what are the consequences? | 07:00 |
| Flannel | nevart: #ubuntu-offtopic for that. And it wasn't a virus, just a trojan. | 07:00 |
| zerq | Sparkie: there's also rkhunter which is the same idea as chkrootrit | 07:00 |
| maco | travmon: aye. malware can certainly be made. its simply social engineering that determines whether you choose to install it | 07:00 |
| zerq | er.. chkrootkit | 07:00 |
| artscience | because I DO have a windows xp partition | 07:00 |
| LanSiir | artscience cause windozs | 07:00 |

| artscience | anyone remember? | 07:09 |
| oldtopman | ...oh, still oldtopman eh | 07:09 |
| eylisian | artscience: you might try gparted (live cd) and carve up your free space with it, then install ubuntu w/ no grub and let your fancy named loader do the loading. | 07:09 |
| oldtopman | artscience it doesnt | 07:09 |
| artscience | also what should I choose for my mount point given my current setup? or does it matter? | 07:10 |
| khensthoth | artscience: After you set up your partition, confirmation step - there is either an "advanced" option, or it will ask you. | 07:10 |
| llutz | artscience: only alternate install cd asks you by default | 07:10 |

| Wimbuntu | yes | 07:28 |
| chris_ | how do i do that | 07:28 |
| chris_ | nevart | 07:28 |
| nevart | i think you have to edit the grub command | 07:28 |
| nevart | i haven't tried it but i can see it would be a problem | 07:29 |
| newtoubuntu2 | khensthoth: i'll try that, but i cant get to terminal. i was thinking about making a launcher, but couldnt find term either. | 07:29 |
| greezmunkey | eremite, aptoncd is great for packages that you have downloaded, you can gzip your home directory, and install fresh from a dist cd, seems pretty good to me. The alternative is a bit if a mess IMO | 07:29 |
| meowbuntu | artscience, its done i need to dual boot them. will this grub1 setup work http://ubuntu-georgia.org/installing_ubuntu_and_windows_xp_on_separate_drives | 07:29 |
| eylisian | artscience: you find your free space and select it (not using guided, lvm is optional for *within* that partition that you make from free space. I'd avoid it). After packages install, don't install grub (it's explicit about what it's trying to do) and then reboot into goodness with your bootloader. | 07:29 |

| arooni-mobile | hi folks! having trouble mounting /dev/md1 as my home partition. md1 is a raid 1 device across two hard drives. running karmic. i changed nothing except for the locatoin of the PC (moved it without dropping it). now when i try to mount /dev/md1 i see: "EXT3-fs: unable to read spuerblock; mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/mda1" .... what should i do now? | 07:29 |
| chris_ | it prompts me to the grub command | 07:29 |
| khensthoth | newtoubuntu2: Alt+F1 to get Ubuntu menu, Alt+F2 to get the Run Application prompt. | 07:30 |
| Rajasun | islington: maybe not. https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-members-kde4/+archive/ppa is for users of gutsy, hardy and intrepid not for jaunty and karmic. Go through the list here https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas?name_filter=KDE . You should be able to find one. | 07:30 |
| artscience | so what should I use for a mount point or does it matter? | 07:30 |
| artscience | I usually would just use "/" | 07:30 |
| Wimbuntu | i have defnitely not changed the grub | 07:30 |
| newtoubuntu2 | khensthoth: any suggestions if ALT+F1 and ALT+F2 dont work? | 07:31 |
| chris_ | can you nevart give me any kind of commands to try | 07:31 |
| khensthoth | artscience: Depends on you, but having a separate /home would make reinstallation/upgrading/backup much easier. | 07:31 |
| eylisian | artscience: you need a root ( / ) partition. | 07:31 |
| eylisian | artscience: swap is nice too. | 07:32 |
| newtoubuntu2 | khensthoth: also would like to mention that when i shutdown/reboot, there is a popup that says "panel" is not responding | 07:32 |
| khensthoth | newtoubuntu2: Ctrl+Alt+F1 to get to a console, run the commands, Ctrl+Alt+F7 to go back. | 07:32 |
| vimpulse | Wimbuntu: also, if you write "anyone" in your question, then people who haven't seen your error message won't answer. Instead, if you want to know why you're getting your error message, ask everyone something like, "Why am I getting the error message 'abc'? Is it serious?". | 07:32 |

| newtoubuntu2 | khensthoth: thanks, that worked, i got to console. however when i do try to rm ~panel, it says that there is no such file or directory | 07:33 |
| vimpulse | eylisian: why do you recommend separate tmp? | 07:34 |
| eylisian | artscience: one big root and some swap works too =) | 07:34 |
| vimpulse | on a desktop | 07:34 |
| newtoubuntu2 | wait | 07:34 |
| artscience | it's not a desktop and I don't want to get all serious ;) | 07:34 |
| Wimbuntu | thanks guys | 07:34 |
| artscience | this is about 10% drive space | 07:34 |
| khensthoth | newtoubuntu2: rm -r ~/.gconf/apps/panel | 07:34 |
| vimpulse | Wimbuntu: I think time to re-ask. | 07:34 |
| Fenix-Dark | hey | 07:34 |
| vimpulse | but better this time. | 07:34 |
| newtoubuntu2 | yea, i missed the ~ | 07:34 |
| artscience | my mac is my main OS | 07:34 |
| newtoubuntu2 | that got it, rebooting now | 07:34 |
| Fenix-Dark | anyone running ubuntu on one of those intel nas devices? (intel ss4200-e) | 07:34 |
| vimpulse | !anyone > Fenix-Dark | 07:35 |
| ubottu | Fenix-Dark, please see my private message | 07:35 |
| artscience | if I don | 07:35 |
| vimpulse | Fenix-Dark: :) | 07:35 |
| eylisian | vimpulse: I just learned to do it that way. | 07:35 |
| artscience | if I don't create a swap now can I create one later? | 07:35 |
| eylisian | artscience: if there is room yeah. swapon baby. | 07:35 |
| newtoubuntu2 | khensthoth: how did you find that info? i.e. what should i type into google to find this type of tip? | 07:35 |
| khensthoth | artscience: Yes, though you might have to resize some partitions. | 07:36 |
| artscience | that's ok | 07:36 |
| artscience | I think I'll skip the swap for now | 07:36 |
| eylisian | artscience: does hfs shrink? | 07:36 |
| ardchoille | newtoubuntu2: most of you settings are somewhere in ~/.gconf in subfolders.. have a look in there sometime | 07:36 |
| vimpulse | artscience: resizing partitions always creates a minuscule chance of data loss, each time you do it. | 07:36 |
| artscience | it does with ipartition | 07:36 |
| Fenix-Dark | I've looked into it a bit and there is a distinct lack of documentation on installing linux on it (intel ss4200-e) compared to WHS... Curious of what problems I may run into since i plan on installing it soon, in a bit of a round-about way. Going to plop a hdd into my desktop, install ubuntu to it, setup some user accounts and have sshd start on boot, then plop that back into the intel NAS and hope for the best | 07:37 |
| eylisian | artscience: nice. d00d, check out gparted too. it's nice stuff. the live cd is always good to have around. | 07:37 |
| Wimbuntu | Why am I getting the error message 'main process 735 failed at startup '? | 07:37 |
| khensthoth | newtoubuntu2: Google: resetting Gnome Panel. Actually, ~/.gconf contains a lot of your gnome settings and configurations. In fact, ~/.(AppName) usually are configurations for that App as well, so if you have a problem, just delete those folder. Make a backup and be careful though. | 07:37 |
| artscience | yeah I've given gparted good use too ;) | 07:37 |
| eylisian | Wimbuntu: in dmesg? | 07:38 |
| artscience | but ipartition helps with the really messy stuff like bootcamp | 07:38 |
| vimpulse | Wimbuntu: I suggest you add "and is it serious?" because some error messages at startup are not serious at all. | 07:38 |
| newtoubuntu2 | khensthoth & ardchoille: many thanks for the help :) | 07:38 |
| eylisian | Wimbuntu: cause 735 didn't start ;) | 07:38 |
| * eylisian ducks | 07:38 | |
| artscience | well worth the $45 | 07:38 |
| Wimbuntu | well this one stopped my gnome from starting , up , I can only access command line | 07:38 |
| eylisian | artscience: right on. I have heard bootcamp is a drag. | 07:38 |
| vimpulse | Wimbuntu: ah. Sounds like it *is* serious. | 07:38 |
| Wimbuntu | yes | 07:39 |
| vimpulse | Wimbuntu: it would've been best to mention that bit in your original question. :) | 07:39 |
| Wimbuntu | I love command line but defnitely need the gnome | 07:39 |
| Wimbuntu | sorry , i am a newbie on this | 07:39 |
| artscience | yeah speaking of drag it only let's "drag" a bar between ONE mac partition and ONE windows partition | 07:40 |
| eylisian | Wimbuntu: did it take you to a ncurses (cmd menu) screen w/ options about root shell and 'reconfigure x'? | 07:40 |
| vimpulse | Wimbuntu: I find that the best IRC questions are usually fifty words or more, all in one very long message, like arooni-mobile's question above. | 07:40 |
| artscience | and you can't partition before bootcamp the drive needs to be in one big HFS+ | 07:40 |
| vimpulse | Wimbuntu: and it's OK, everyone's a newbie sometime :) | 07:41 |
| arooni-mobile | i dont wknow what else to do | 07:41 |
| newtoubuntu2 | anyone know why i cant get my wireless on my laptop to work? | 07:41 |
| Wimbuntu | yes it basically halted the whole system , and I needed to reboot with the recovery option to get it to cml | 07:41 |
| artscience | who thought that was a good idea??!! of course I need more the one partition for mac and windows | 07:41 |
| vimpulse | !anyone > newtoubuntu2 | 07:41 |
| ubottu | newtoubuntu2, please see my private message | 07:41 |
| vimpulse | newtoubuntu2: :) | 07:41 |
| travmon | jockey broke my wireless yesterday ath_pci was not blacklisted | 07:42 |
| eylisian | Wimbuntu: so you reboot, selecting recovery mode and now you are at a root shell? (cmd prompt w/ the little "#" mark) | 07:42 |
| Wimbuntu | yes eylisian | 07:43 |
| racle | Anyone know good content filter? need block acces to porn and dansguardian isn't working all the time... | 07:43 |
| artscience | `ok I think I found it on page 7 of 7 if you click advanced you can deselect "install boot loader" | 07:43 |
| travmon | opendns? | 07:43 |
| Slart | racle: unless you use some kind of whitelist I think it's hard to get a filter to work all the time | 07:43 |
| vimpulse | racle: I use dansguardian and I find it is the best choice of all the choices I have seen in the Ubuntu repo. Ask for help in #dansguardian. | 07:43 |
| racle | vimpulse: i ask help there | 07:44 |
| amarendra | My laptop camera is not detected in ubuntu. Plz help | 07:44 |
| Keiya | Brasero sucks. | 07:44 |
| artscience | it says "the partition tables of the following devices are changed:" maybe I'm just being paranoid but it's not going to change the actual table is it? | 07:44 |
| Keiya | "Some file names are not fully Windows-compatable. Would you like to continue?" | 07:44 |
| robbmunson | amarendra: what kind of camera? (way more information needed) | 07:44 |
| Keiya | Push continue. | 07:44 |
| FloodBot1 | Keiya: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 07:44 |
| Keiya | "Some file names are not fully Windows-compatable. Would you like to continue?" | 07:44 |
| Keiya | Push continue. | 07:44 |
| Wimbuntu | hi guys , i will be back in a while , then i'll continue my problem solving , thanks in any case for everyone listening ( reading) | 07:45 |
| artscience | maybe it just means that because the partition being changed is in that table | 07:45 |
| Madpilot | Keiya, yeah, I wish there was a "I am not burning this disc to be used on Windows" button sometiems | 07:45 |
| eylisian | Wimbuntu: well, this comes down to what I think might be possible x-server issues. from your root shell issue the command: init 5 | 07:45 |
| eylisian | Wimbuntu: see if x starts that way | 07:45 |
| Keiya | Madpilot: There is. "sudo apt-get install k3b' | 07:45 |
| cell0 | Hi folks, i've used "sar" to identify high %util on a given disk. How do i translate this into a offending process? | 07:45 |
| amarendra | Its inbuilt , motion eye is the brand and is connected in usb according to windows driver. | 07:45 |
| Madpilot | Keiya, well, yes. Inside Brasero, I mean. :) | 07:46 |
| artscience | *crosses fingers* | 07:46 |
| cell0 | someone suggested iostat, but not sure how to use it | 07:46 |
| eylisian | artscience: good luck | 07:46 |
| vimpulse | amarendra: I am not experienced with cameras. But it would be wise to give even more info. Try to restate your question in fifty words or more. Preferably a hundred words. All in one very long message. Include info about what you tried already, if anything. :) | 07:46 |
| S_A | Hi! I have recently upgraded to 9.10 from 9.04. getting error in dns resolving. Any solution ? | 07:46 |
| Flannel | vimpulse: Alright, enough with that. Word count has nothing to do with a question. | 07:47 |
| cpoulson | S_A: Check /etc/resolv.conf? | 07:47 |
| newtoubuntu2 | how do i get my wireless to work? i have followed instructions on how to when i searched online but they all seem to not help me. during install no errors were raised. | 07:47 |
| khensthoth | S_A: Would switching your DNS server to OpenDNS or Google Pubic DNS help? | 07:47 |
| vimpulse | Flannel: I find that the more a person writes, the more useful info they will give, including what they tried already, what other info they know, et cetera. | 07:47 |
| Wimbuntu | no go , eylisian | 07:48 |
| khensthoth | newtoubuntu2: Which wireless card is it? | 07:48 |
| === VanDyke_ is now known as VanDyke | ||
| cpoulson | khensthoth: I sure like the IPs Google picked for their servers! | 07:48 |
| greezmunkey | cell0, iostat is more for average usage stats, what do you think is happening? | 07:48 |
| Wimbuntu | is there a way to reinstall the x-server eylisian: | 07:48 |
| amarendra | I am using sony vaio laptop model no. vgn-cr35g. The inbuilt camera cannot be detected by ubuntu 9.10. I have tried cheese. | 07:48 |
| S_A | cpoulson: already added name server in /etc/resolv.conf. After adding remote host IP address in /etc/hosts, I can ping to that particulat host properly but not to any random dns address | 07:49 |
| vimpulse | amarendra: ok, you tried cheese; what happened when you ran the cheese program? | 07:49 |
| eylisian | cell0: my bad. iotop is what I should have said first. | 07:50 |
| newtoubuntu2 | khensthoth: how do i check? i tried ifconfig -a, NetworkManager, and neither tell me the model | 07:50 |
| * eylisian hangs head | 07:50 | |
| Barbiegentooer_ | az mouse came and ate it ? | 07:50 |
| travmon | wxcam? | 07:50 |
| cpoulson | S_A: Did you try as khensthoth suggested and use Google's Public DNS or OpenDNS? | 07:50 |
| amarendra | Message is: No camera found. | 07:50 |
| eylisian | Wimbuntu: dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg (as root or using sudo) | 07:50 |
| S_A | cpoulson: how to do that ? | 07:50 |
| vimpulse | amarendra: Also, what is the model of camera? | 07:50 |
| vimpulse | amarendra: lsusb may tell you. | 07:51 |
| Bu3nK | uuu | 07:51 |
| tsrk | I had an SSH session open that was running a long script and I accidently closed it. How can I check if the script is still running? | 07:51 |
| cpoulson | S_A: umm for Google use 8.8.8.8 | 07:51 |
| newtoubuntu2 | khensthoth: broadcom Corporation BCM4309 | 07:51 |
| vimpulse | tsrk: ps -ef | 07:51 |
| vimpulse | tsrk: next time, use GNU Screen or nohup to avoid these problems. :) | 07:51 |
| amarendra | after running lsusb: Bus 001 Device 002: ID 05ca:1839 Ricoh Co., Ltd Visual Communication Camera VGP-VCC6 [R5U870] | 07:52 |

| isolat3dsh33p | guys, how to play vcd in ubuntu? | 07:52 |
| S_A | do you mean I should add this 8.8.8.8 in my /etc/resolv.conf ? | 07:52 |
| eylisian | Google party it is. | 07:52 |
| llutz | S_A: add "nameserver=8.8.8.8" to /etc/resolv.conf | 07:53 |
| eylisian | S_A that would have you looking up against google, yes. | 07:53 |
| tsrk | vimpulse, eylisian, thank you, worked perfectly :) | 07:53 |
| cpoulson | S_A: yes... like "nameserver 8.8.8.8" | 07:53 |

| chasedawg1 | Hey i have a question. Can anyone help me? | 07:53 |
| cpoulson | llutz: hehe | 07:53 |
| robbmunson | !ask | chasedawg1 | 07:53 |
| ubottu | chasedawg1: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 07:53 |
| S_A | :) | 07:53 |
| vimpulse | robbmunson: I can't help amarendra; I have no clue what to say. Can you? Otherwise s/he should repeat/resummarize the whole question, all in one very long message. | 07:53 |

| chasedawg1 | I want to change my login screen. How do i do that | 07:54 |
| khensthoth | newtoubuntu2: Ah. Not proficient at all in that area. Have you seen this though? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Broadcom_BCM4311_rev_01_%28ndiswrapper%29 | 07:54 |
| vimpulse | tsrk: whenever I start up a terminal, I start GNU Screen inside it. I have made this a habit. It has served me well. | 07:54 |
| robbmunson | vimpulse: Sometimes answers are unavailable, not even I can help as I am about to leave my session open but my physical body is going to sleep :) | 07:54 |
| tsrk | vimpulse: is there an easy way to set that to automatically happen? | 07:55 |
| vimpulse | amarendra: time to repeat everything for the whole channel, all in one very long message. It's a drag but in such a busy channel as this, it helps us. | 07:55 |
| newtoubuntu2 | khensthoth: how did u find that? i'll take a look, but it seems to require more skill with ubuntu than i have. | 07:55 |
| vimpulse | tsrk: I don't know, but if so, I don't recommend it, as usually you want a new session, sometimes not. Also, you should train your muscle memory to start screen every time, even when using LiveCDs or foreign PCs. | 07:56 |
| chasedawg1 | I want to change my login screen. How do i do that? | 07:57 |
| tsrk | vimpulse: alright, i'll work on that | 07:57 |

| llutz | ^^ not in karmic afaik | 07:57 |
| Kamokow | No, it isnt in karmic | 07:58 |
| cpoulson | vimpulse: That's how I end up with 50 screen sessions and can't remember which one I want to reconnect to. ;) | 07:58 |
| Kvist | :P | 07:58 |
| eylisian | chasedawg1: you might need to go download some new ones too. | 07:58 |
| chasedawg1 | eylisian: i go to the system > admin > login screen but nothing happens | 07:58 |
| Kamokow | chasedawg1: it isnt the same in 9.10, which i would assume you are using? | 07:58 |
| vimpulse | llutz: who runs 8.8.8.8, and are you sure they don't mind thousands of random strangers using their nameserver? :) | 07:58 |
| amarendra | I am using sony vaio laptop model no. vgn-cr35g. The inbuilt camera cannot be detected by ubuntu 9.10. I have tried cheese. I used lsusb to get the model of camera. I reply i got "Bus 001 Device 002: ID 05ca:1839 Ricoh Co., Ltd Visual Communication Camera VGP-VCC6 [R5U870]" If cheese wants camera in /dev/video; Is there any way to mount this usb location in video location which cheese wants? | 07:58 |

| * eylisian is using 9.04 on desktop | 07:59 | |

| vimpulse | llutz: cpoulson: ah. | 07:59 |
| Beefcakes | if i install ubuntu inside windows... am I essentially installing another OS or just an app inside windows? | 07:59 |
| calamity | Heya everyone, I've just freshly installed 9.10, and after installing the restrictedformats packages, ubuntu seems to be playing music, but no noise is actually coming out. | 07:59 |
| greezmunkey | vimpulse, nslookup 8.8.8.8 | 07:59 |

| artscience | Beefcakes: are using a virtual machine? | 07:59 |
| chasedawg1 | eylisian: what ones do i download? i looked everywhere | 08:00 |
| Beefcakes | artscience: no using the cd installer | 08:00 |

| Beefcakes | booh: will it give me another OS choice in boot? I dont want it to interefere with anything, i want something like cygwin | 08:00 |
| eylisian | chasedawg1: might forget about it sounds like. is this true? | 08:00 |
| RPG_Master | Anyone else having issues with pausing ogg video and audio in Firefox? | 08:00 |
| artscience | yeah do wubi | 08:00 |
| booh | Beefcakes: it sounds like wubi is what you want, though i have never used it | 08:00 |
| chasedawg1 | ok ya. I guess i'll just leave it alone. darn | 08:01 |
| roracle | RPG_Master: link me to an ogg so to test it | 08:01 |
| khensthoth | RPG_Master: Yes. Don't know how to solve it though. | 08:01 |

| * eylisian sniffs | 08:01 | |
| booh | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wubi_%28Ubuntu_installer%29 | 08:01 |
| vimpulse | RPG_Master: khensthoth: if you can't find any info online about the problem, try irc.mozilla.org #firefox | 08:01 |
| Kamokow | eylisian: I dont think so, Im pretty sure they took out official built in customization for speed | 08:01 |
| RPG_Master | roracle: they have a buncha audio players there | 08:01 |
| booh | Beefcakes: Wubi adds an entry to the Windows boot menu which allows the user to run Linux. Ubuntu is installed within a file in the Windows file system (c:\ubuntu\disks\root.disk), as opposed to being installed within its own partition. | 08:01 |
| RPG_Master | vimpulse: They don't know :O | 08:02 |
| calamity | I should mention, this happens with both mp3 and ogg. | 08:02 |
| Kamokow | I will try to find a tutorial on changing the GDM logon wallpaper, hold on a moment :) | 08:02 |
| vimpulse | RPG_Master: then try the Firefox mailing lists next. I think http://lists.mozilla.org | 08:02 |
| eylisian | Kamokow: there are ways to do it. | 08:02 |
| roracle | i don't hear anything | 08:02 |
| calamity | I checked under sound settings, and there are no devices listed | 08:02 |
| artscience | hmm do I have to reinstall rEFIt? it doesn't recognize the new ubuntu install | 08:02 |
| RPG_Master | roracle: www.shotofjaq.org | 08:02 |
| RPG_Master | sorry :P | 08:02 |
| Kamokow | eylisian: I know there are ways of doing it, but the old way is gone AFAIK | 08:02 |
| booh | Kamokow: really, you need a tutorial for that? in KDE it's under system settings | 08:02 |
| artscience | but thankfully and perhaps most importantly my mac install still boots | 08:03 |
| booh | gnome blows hard | 08:03 |
| eylisian | Kamokow: forums are down, but there is info on it. thanks for the heads up. | 08:03 |

| ruffus910 | can anyone help me reinstall firefox 3.6 | 08:07 |
| eylisian | greezmunkey: if it is set to run at 3 and 5 you need to adjust that. | 08:07 |
| Kamokow | i_is_broke: dorgem is useful, and you can setup a web ftp feed too | 08:08 |
| RPG_Master | roracle: It works for me in chrome :( | 08:08 |
| roracle | strange huh? | 08:08 |
| RPG_Master | I don't like chrome... | 08:08 |
| RPG_Master | indeed :( | 08:08 |
| Flannel | i_is_broke: Sure. There's a number of them, try "motion", it'll detect motion (in regions you specify) and alert you, etc. | 08:08 |
| RPG_Master | roracle: Could it have anything to do with 64-bit, add-ons? | 08:08 |
| i_is_broke | Kamokow, Flannel , thanks for the imput.. | 08:09 |
| Kottizen | When I tried to connect to my FTP-server I got "Unexpected end of stream", what does that mean? | 08:09 |
| greezmunkey | eylisian, I think it started when I installed the sysstat package...It shows up in chkconfig, thanks! | 08:09 |
| roracle | i dunno, i'm at work so i'm using my 32 bit install | 08:09 |
| roracle | netbook | 08:09 |
| Kamokow | Kottizen: just try reconnecting | 08:09 |
| ruffus910 | nobody is going to help me with firefox 3.6? | 08:10 |
| Kamokow | Kottizen: Are you using like Nautilus with the FTP? | 08:10 |
| Kamokow | brb | 08:10 |
| artscience | ok peeps | 08:11 |
| eylisian | greezmunkey: weird. shouldn't affect it but... who knows. you can adjust ntop with chkconfig: chkconfig --level 2345 off ntop | 08:11 |
| i_is_broke | ruffus910, have you tried sudo aptitude reinstall firefox-3.6? | 08:11 |
| Kottizen | Kamokow: I'm using "Connect to server" under "Places" in the menu. | 08:11 |
| greezmunkey | eylisian, that makes it too easy ;] | 08:11 |
| artscience | here's the deal I got ubuntu installed on that partition, but I just can't boot it | 08:11 |
| === egertonm20 is now known as citypop | ||
| Kottizen | Kamokow: It didn't work with reconnect. | 08:11 |
| greezmunkey | eylisian, thanks! | 08:11 |
| eylisian | greezmunkey: it does huh? | 08:12 |
| newtoubuntu2 | how do i scan for wireless networks available? | 08:12 |
| artscience | I tried reinstalling refit and it didn't help | 08:12 |
| llutz | newtoubuntu2: iwlist s | 08:12 |
| artscience | I'm thinking I need some kind boot loader information on the partition itself | 08:12 |
| eylisian | artscience: no life, or kernel panic? | 08:12 |
| artscience | no I can't even get THAT far | 08:13 |
| llutz | artscience: you haven't installed grub to partition? | 08:13 |
| artscience | when my laptop boots up it goes to rEFIt | 08:13 |
| artscience | no I didn't | 08:13 |
| artscience | it didn't give me that option | 08:13 |
| llutz | artscience: you should have done (advanced options) | 08:14 |
| eylisian | artscience: when you say 'needs a boot loader' grub comes to mind... it rocks. but you are skipping in the land of proprietary weirdness. | 08:14 |
| artscience | it only allowed me to deselect "install boot loader" which I did not want to do so it wouldn't mess up my current scheme | 08:14 |
| newtoubuntu2 | llutz: network is down | 08:14 |
| artscience | I did go to the advanced option but this is an intrepid 8.10 live cd | 08:14 |
| llutz | newtoubuntu2: sudo ifconfig <your-wifi-dev> up && iwlist s | 08:15 |
| i_is_broke | ruffus910, did you catch that, and did it work? | 08:15 |
| eylisian | artscience: I know, blow it all away and run mac and windows in virtualbox under ubuntu! | 08:15 |
| ruffus910 | i_is_broke: no, it did not work | 08:15 |
| llutz | !grub | artscience | 08:15 |
| ubottu | artscience: grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 08:15 |
| eylisian | artscience: kidding d00d. | 08:15 |
| i_is_broke | ruffus910, why are you trying to reinstall it? | 08:16 |
| newtoubuntu2 | llutz: i did "sudo ifconfig wlan0" but where does it say if it is up or not? | 08:16 |
| ruffus910 | i do apt-get install ad it says no installation candidate | 08:16 |
| ruffus910 | because i deleted it | 08:16 |
| artscience | I think at this point I just need to explore options for manually creating boot info that won't interfere with my current scheme and will get rEFIt to recognize the linux installation | 08:16 |
| ruffus910 | did apt-get uninstall | 08:16 |
| i_is_broke | oh i dont think 3.6 is in the repos, you will have to get the ppa for it. | 08:16 |

| llutz | !checkinstall | Beefcakes | 08:24 |
| ubottu | Beefcakes: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 08:24 |

| llutz | Beefcakes: if using same PREFIX it should, but make install is a real bad idea | 08:24 |
| Beezie_ | newtoubuntu2, who else was helping you? | 08:24 |
| llutz | artscience: installing grub into partition | 08:24 |

| scythepdas | well i installed this version yesterday | 08:26 |
| Beezie_ | llutz & greezmunkey you 2 agree wicd is worth installing to make newtoubuntu2's problem easier to fix? | 08:26 |
| scythepdas | so i think its rather fresh i havent messed with anything so far | 08:26 |
| khensthoth | scythepdas: Have you seen if your volume in alsamixer, particularly PCM under Playback tab is muted? | 08:26 |

| newtoubuntu2 | llutz: how do i config /etc/network/interfaces? | 08:26 |

| scythepdas | sound isnt muted | 08:27 |
| llutz | newtoubuntu2: you need a working friver before | 08:27 |
| scythepdas | and there is an audio device named internal audio | 08:27 |
| scythepdas | i havent downloaded drivers yet | 08:27 |
| ruffus910 | i_is_broken: when i do apt-get update, it says some of the sources have no public key | 08:27 |

| greezmunkey | Beezie_, I begged off of that one but I do run wicd, primarily because of issues with NM. | 08:29 |
| Beefcakes | how do you use a rc2.patch file? | 08:29 |
| eylisian | ruffus910: what repo do you need a key for? | 08:29 |
| Beefcakes | rather, just a .patch file? | 08:29 |
| mneptok | ruffus910: what repos did you add manually to sources.list? | 08:29 |

| artscience | llutz: what won't work...typing grub? | 08:34 |
| Viking667 | I don't even _get_ to the kdm/gdm | 08:34 |
| llutz | artscience: yes | 08:34 |
| newtoubuntu2 | mneptok: there is no LED for wireless, but there is one for bluetooth. there is a Fn key for wireless, but pressing it did nothing. | 08:34 |
| Beezie_ | Viking667, sorry ok | 08:35 |
| Viking667 | I said "as soon as the Xorg starts up" | 08:35 |
| mneptok | newtoubuntu2: look in "Hardware Drivers" now | 08:35 |
| Viking667 | starting up kdm, sorry | 08:35 |
| isolat3dsh33p | scythepdas: Do you have graphical alsamixer installed? | 08:35 |
| ruffus910 | mneptok: you mean firefox 3.5? i want to use 3.6 because im a dork with nothing better to do with my time | 08:35 |
| llutz | artscience: you also can boot into the live-cd and run grub from there if the "c" won't work again | 08:35 |
| eylisian | ruffus910: http://hydr0g3n.free.fr/qbittorrent/ if thats the repo, i can't find a key. | 08:35 |
| newtoubuntu2 | mneptok: no change, still nothing listed. | 08:35 |
| Beefcakes | if i have an app i installed via make install and i make a deb out of it's update, should i make remove first before installing the .deb? | 08:36 |
| mneptok | ruffus910: and you're willing to install an unsigned package that could be poorly built or a security risk? | 08:36 |
| Beezie_ | Viking667, can you get a shell? maybe you can check your .conf file for x11 | 08:36 |
| llutz | Beezie_: if you _can_ remove it, do it | 08:36 |
| eylisian | mneptok: right. | 08:36 |
| llutz | Beefcakes: ^^ | 08:36 |
| Beezie_ | llutz, ? | 08:36 |
| mneptok | newtoubuntu2: you may have to press both the function key and the "Fn" key together | 08:36 |
| Beezie_ | heh | 08:36 |
| llutz | Beezie_: sry | 08:36 |
| Viking667 | As soon as X loads the radeon module, that's it. End of. Game over. | 08:36 |
| ruffus910 | firefox 3.6 is very well built, but to answer youre question, why not? | 08:36 |
| newtoubuntu2 | mneptok: i know, i did. | 08:36 |

| isolat3dsh33p | scythepdas: if it's not installed, you can use the one in the terminal by typing 'alsamixer'. In the playback tab, check whether any output is muted. | 08:36 |
| Beezie_ | Viking667, was this after apt-get updates it happened? | 08:36 |
| scythepdas | isolat3dsh33p: i have alsa-utils installed according to synaptic but not alsamixergui or gnomealsamixer. | 08:37 |
| mneptok | newtoubuntu2: the wireless card is off. if it was on, the "Hardware drivers" applet would see it and install the firmware for it. | 08:37 |
| Viking667 | ... and I can't load the fglrx module either... aticonfig tells me I don't have a suitable card, yet I've got a Radeon 9550 (RV350 AS) | 08:37 |
| eylisian | ruffus910: no repo key is like un-protected computer sex. | 08:37 |
| geeknik_ | anyone having issues w/ their connection after going to 9.1? | 08:37 |
| * Viking667 goes and reboots the silly computer | 08:37 | |
| newtoubuntu2 | mneptok: would BIOS be able to turn it on? | 08:37 |
| Beezie_ | Viking667, id still check the conf file out in shell | 08:37 |
| mneptok | newtoubuntu2: it very well may | 08:37 |
| ruffus910 | i just want 3.6 to work again | 08:37 |
| isolat3dsh33p | scythepdas: you can you the terminal. type 'alsamixer' | 08:37 |
| eylisian | ruffus910: it might be thrilling but it also might get you p0wned. | 08:37 |
| Beezie_ | isolat3dsh33p, is there a gui front end-line alsamixer thing? ive been wondering myself. | 08:38 |
| artscience | ok I'm going into live | 08:38 |
| newtoubuntu2 | mneptok: trying that | 08:38 |
| RSMITH16384 | can someone recommend a good syslog server? | 08:38 |
| scythepdas | isolat3dsh33p: master volume is at 81, pcm at 100 and front at 81. everything else is muted | 08:38 |
| artscience | I forgot how to run grub from there though | 08:38 |
| eylisian | artscience: sweet. | 08:38 |
| travmon | QAMIX works great!!! | 08:38 |
| ruffus910 | Im always careful, I just want Firefox 3.6 to work again | 08:38 |
| llutz | artscience:when in live-cd, open terminal: "sudo su", "grub", "find /boot/grub/stage1" | 08:39 |
| eylisian | ruffus910: have you tried launching it (FF 3.6) from a terminal and seeing what errors are within? | 08:39 |
| geeknik_ | anyine have issues w/ browser in 9.1 | 08:40 |
| isolat3dsh33p | schestowitz: Are you trying to play mp3 files? | 08:40 |
| ruffus910 | how do i do that (sorry im still getting used to ubuntu | 08:40 |
| isolat3dsh33p | Beezie_: I use GNOME alsamixer :/ | 08:41 |
| eylisian | ruffus910: Applications > Accessories > Terminal | 08:41 |
| RSMITH16384 | ubuntu says i have rsyslog installed, how can i view the log? | 08:41 |
| ruffus910 | eylisian: How could I run something that isnt installed on my computer? | 08:41 |
| greezmunkey | RSMITH16384, http://johncrackernet.blogspot.com/2008/09/howto-setup-syslog-server-in-ubuntu.html | 08:41 |
| Beezie_ | isolat3dsh33p, i just installed QAMIX . | 08:41 |
| eylisian | ruffus910: ah. | 08:41 |
| scythepdas | isolat3dsh33p: if you mean me seeing as i cant see anyone named shestowitz, yes i am attempting to play mp3 files from my ipod | 08:41 |
| llutz | RSMITH16384: less /var/log/syslog | 08:42 |
| eylisian | ruffus910: heh, you mentioned you just wanted it to work again. | 08:42 |
| i_is_broke | ruffus910, did you get the link i sent you its how to go around the key. | 08:42 |
| Viking667 | sorry about that. I've reboted. | 08:42 |
| Nirrad | hello i am using the latest ubuntu i am trying to install Fulltilt poker through wine. But i cannot seem to get the app to start after install. I have installed the mscore fonts and copied all the dll files to the win32 folder but it still wont start. Any suggestions ? | 08:42 |
| oversize | when changing /etc/X11/xorg.conf to set my second screens resolution this gets overwritten after X restarts.Where do i have to set the resoultion? | 08:42 |
| ruffus910 | eylisian: sorry, it has been a while since i asked the question. do you know how i could reinstall it? | 08:42 |
| isolat3dsh33p | scythepdas: if that's the case, your line in should not be muted. :/ | 08:42 |
| Viking667 | Beezie_: the only problem seems to be when I installed the xorg-driver-fglrx package. Once I installed that, then everything X-related went seriously sideways. | 08:43 |
| isolat3dsh33p | *line-in | 08:43 |
| eylisian | ruffus910: you got it from launchpad? | 08:43 |
| ruffus910 | i_is_broke: yes i did get it, and will go throug hit in a minute | 08:43 |
| Viking667 | Funnily enough, the terminal still accepts input even though both monitors are "dead" | 08:43 |
| i_is_broke | ruffus910, k just checking | 08:43 |
| Beezie_ | Viking667, you might need to track down an elder version and install it from console | 08:43 |
| Viking667 | "older" version of what? | 08:43 |
| ruffus910 | eylisian: i did sudo apt-get install after putting in the software sources | 08:43 |
| scythepdas | isolat3dsh33p: ok should i try unmuting it? how would i go about doing that? | 08:43 |
| Beezie_ | Viking667, xorg-driver-fglrx package | 08:43 |
| ruffus910 | eylisian: then today i uninstalled and want it reinstalled | 08:44 |
| Viking667 | hahahaha... you _are_ kidding, aren't you? | 08:44 |
| Beezie_ | no im serious. | 08:44 |
| Beezie_ | :) | 08:44 |
| Viking667 | *sigh* | 08:44 |
| artscience | error 15: file not found | 08:44 |
| Viking667 | I was afraid you'd say that. | 08:44 |
| newtoubuntu2 | mneptok: turned it on but no dice. still nothing found under "hardware drivers", and "network tools 2.28.0" says state is "inactive" | 08:44 |
| eylisian | ruffus910: right. without a key or the link someone mentioned to work around no key, your box won't pull the package. | 08:44 |
| Beezie_ | Viking667, dont take my advice as gospel. :) its just a logical step since installing xorg-driver-fglrx might've caused it | 08:44 |
| Viking667 | for the moment at least, I'm disabling it until I figure out whether it's worth the anguish. | 08:44 |

| mneptok | newtoubuntu2: do you see it listed when you run lspci ? | 08:46 |
| llutz | artscience: you haven't installed grub at all. try chrooting into your installation and reinstall grub with apt-get. | 08:46 |
| scythepdas | isolat3dsh33p: just tried playing rhythmbox after unmuting. no luck there. i also forgot to add that when i select to play something in rhythmbox the play button turns to a pause button but the slider doesnt move at all | 08:46 |

| ubottu | geeknik_: 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? | 08:47 |
| i_is_broke | geeknik_, what browser are you talking about for sure? | 08:47 |
| newtoubuntu2 | mneptok: it was always there | 08:47 |
| llutz | geeknik_: what exact is slow, what sites, what browser etc.pp | 08:48 |

| scythepdas | isolat3dsh33p: i have installed that earlier whilst looking through help threads on my issue. | 08:49 |
| jtaji | geeknik_: firefox will get pretty bad when you have a lot of disk i/o going on sadly | 08:49 |
| artscience | llutz: so to clarify the command to chroot to my installation is...? | 08:49 |
| jtaji | geeknik_: happen to be copying files at the time? | 08:50 |
| geeknik_ | I dont, just surfing, no diff than when I was running 9.04 | 08:50 |
| Beezie_ | geeknik_, have you tried an internet speed test? | 08:50 |
| geeknik_ | im not doing anything but surfing | 08:50 |
| mneptok | geeknik_: i assume you're talking about the w3m browser in the terminal? | 08:50 |

| geeknik_ | my speed is fine, its not my connection | 08:50 |
| llutz | eylisian: entries without key won't be ignored, you just will be asked to confirm if you want to install something from there | 08:51 |
| a2f | can someone please test for me if synaptic tries to install arora if you mark the package xchat for installation? | 08:51 |

| newtoubuntu2 | mneptok: any futher help? | 08:54 |
| a2f | well i've been doing it from the command line and it's giving me that problem every time | 08:54 |
| Viking667 | meowbuntu: and yes, it seems to support .bz2 | 08:54 |
| eylisian | llutz: I think it's because you can't pull the list. it can be over ridden, but I don't think I ever would. | 08:55 |
| anonymous_ | geirha, thanks | 08:55 |
| Viking667 | anonymous_: by the way, there seem to be two "rosetta" programs | 08:55 |
| a2f | meowbuntu does synaptic try to install arora for you if you try to install xdg-utils? | 08:55 |
| meowbuntu | isolat3dsh33p, in terminal type. sudo apt-get install xchat | 08:55 |
| a2f | why is synaptic so ****ed up for me even after i've reinstalled like 10 times in the past 2 days | 08:56 |

| Beefcakes | jtaji: i'll remember that the next time.. but how do i specifically install them under /usr/local ? | 09:07 |
| powertool08 | Daemonis: It's supposed to be support only. | 09:07 |
| Beezie_ | that isnt what i meant | 09:07 |
| surlo | geirha: thank you | 09:07 |
| artao | what channel should i use for romantic relationship questions ?? | 09:07 |
| Beezie_ | artao, #dalnet.. | 09:07 |
| Beefcakes | artao: LOL | 09:07 |
| artao | ty | 09:07 |
| jtaji | Beefcakes: it can usually be specified during the config step... also even better there's checkinstall | 09:07 |
| powertool08 | !ot | Daemonis If you want to chat | 09:07 |
| ubottu | Daemonis If you want to chat: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 09:07 |
| jtaji | !checkinstall | Beefcakes | 09:07 |
| ubottu | Beefcakes: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 09:07 |
| Freedom234 | what is happening to ubuntu forums? | 09:07 |
| Beefcakes | jtaji: checkinstall -D make install always fails on me =/ | 09:08 |
| oneirosFade | Does anyone here have (or have experience with) eBooks (esp. the Sony PRS-300) under Linux? I haven't been able to find a viable way to buy/download/manage eBooks with Ubuntu :( | 09:08 |
| newtoubuntu2 | Beezie_: yes, i am reading online. that's what they mentioned. will try going to broadcom's site and see if they have something. | 09:08 |
| Freedom234 | i get database error,when i try going to ubuntu forums | 09:08 |
| travmon | maybe forums are in maintance | 09:08 |
| Daemonis | Does anyone have any experience with SAMBA on ubuntu server 8.10? I've tried setting up a simple file server that is publicaly accessible on my windows network, and have managed to get as far as being able to see it on the network, but no matter what I try it won't let me connect to it. I'd like to set it up to where no username or password was needed. | 09:08 |
| bhuvi | newtoubuntu2, mine is also a broadcomm adaptor but it work perfectly in ubuntu9.10 | 09:08 |
| jtaji | Beefcakes: yeah it's not foolproof, but using the /usr/local hierarchy is good enough to keep them separate from the package system, and have a chance at removing them if need be | 09:08 |
| newtoubuntu2 | bhuvi: how did it work? | 09:09 |
| bhuvi | newtoubuntu2, it works by default | 09:10 |
| Kris07 | Hi, I'm having some problems with Compiz, my Cube Caps or Skydome don't seem to be working properly, can anybody help? | 09:10 |
| adorablepuppy | Help! I was installing Ubuntu to an SD Card (stupidly) and it ate my Windows 7 MBR on the primary hard drive! | 09:10 |
| Freedom234 | whats the point in having compiz? | 09:10 |
| bhuvi | newtoubuntu2, wat version of ubuntu are you using? | 09:11 |
| willemb | greetings | 09:11 |
| Kris07 | For the effects | 09:11 |
| oneirosFade | Freedom234: That's not terribly helpful, you know. | 09:11 |
| Daemonis | Puppy, maybe you could boot into the live cd and use a program from ubuntu to restore the mbr | 09:11 |
| powertool08 | Kris07: Compiz has its own channel at #compiz, might get more help there. | 09:11 |
| usagi | wth is gnome so broken? | 09:11 |
| willemb | I am considering buying a Compaq Mini 110c for my father for Christmas | 09:11 |
| MenZa | surlo: Define 'broken'. Next, don't swear. | 09:11 |
| willemb | and loading unr on it | 09:12 |
| Kris07 | Powertool08, I tried | 09:12 |
| newtoubuntu2 | bhuvi: same, 9.10 | 09:12 |
| willemb | however, when he uses it at home, he will want to use it with his external screen | 09:12 |
| usagi | i have the japanese kb layout and theres no | | 09:12 |
| jtaji | adorablepuppy: that's really a #windows question... no experience with Windows 7, but in the past you would boot the windows install cd and use fixmbr | 09:12 |
| willemb | on which the remix interface will be less than optimal | 09:12 |
| adorablepuppy | jtaji: There was no install CD for this laptop | 09:12 |
| jtaji | adorablepuppy: yep so... #windows | 09:12 |
| willemb | can he switch back and forth between that and the traditional interface quickly and easily? | 09:13 |
| adorablepuppy | jtaji: It's not a windows issue. | 09:13 |
| Beezie_ | adorablepuppy, sec.... | 09:13 |
| geirha | adorablepuppy: For the future, on the last step of the installer, there's an "Advanced" button in which you can choose where grub should be installed. The default is the main hard drive, regardless of where you install ubuntu | 09:13 |
| szyzln | I'm com from China | 09:13 |
| adorablepuppy | This problem is specifically being caused by grub. | 09:13 |
| oneirosFade | willemb: There's an option in the config tab of UNR to go to traditional | 09:13 |
| usagi | MenZa: now could you explain me wth gnome decided to remove the | from the layout? | 09:13 |
| jtaji | adorablepuppy: oh it sure is, you want to restore the Windows MBR | 09:13 |
| travmon | supergrubdisk should fix mbr | 09:13 |
| adorablepuppy | jtaji: I don't want to restore the windows MBR. | 09:13 |
| MenZa | usagi: No. Try irc.gnome.org. | 09:13 |
| willemb | oneirosFade: and easy to go back again? Sorry, I have never tried the netbook remix | 09:13 |
| bhuvi | newtoubuntu2, have you looked in system->administration->hardware drivers,is there any drivers listed | 09:13 |
| usagi | MenZa: simply impossible to grep for something | 09:13 |
| j3llyf15h | hey I was tired in my ubuntu 8.10>>>modprobe: Fatal: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.29.4/modules.dep: no such file or directory>> how to fix this??? | 09:13 |
| jtaji | adorablepuppy: you said it ate your Win 7 MBR | 09:14 |
| usagi | MenZa: will do | 09:14 |
| oneirosFade | willemb: I imagine it's just as easy to switch back, though I've never tried | 09:14 |
| adorablepuppy | I want to make grub see my windows 7 so I can go back and redo the MBR through recovery. | 09:14 |

| ifconfig|grep | Hey there, how does hosting muiltable computers from the same IP work? | 09:14 |
| ifconfig|grep | them all being ubuntu | 09:14 |
| adorablepuppy | Beezie: Thanks. | 09:14 |
| newtoubuntu2 | bhuvi: no drivers listed. also made sure that the wireless is active in BIOS. | 09:14 |
| travmon | supergrubdisk rocks | 09:14 |
| Freedom234 | i rock | 09:14 |
| Beezie_ | adorablepuppy, im not 100% if it can restore win32 mbrs but its worth a look | 09:14 |
| Daemonis | Does anyone know how I would go about setting up SAMBA on ubuntu server 8.10 so that it is publicly accessible on a windows network? | 09:14 |
| ifconfig|grep | ... | 09:15 |
| adorablepuppy | . . . only I'm on a live CD right now, I dunno how I'm going to download this and I don't know how I'm going to install it either. :_; | 09:15 |
| Beezie_ | Daemonis, you mean the shares are 100% promiscuous? | 09:15 |
| bhuvi | newtoubuntu2, what is your wifi device model | 09:15 |
| Daemonis | Yes, that's what I mean. No username or password required.. | 09:15 |
| willemb | I can't seem to find any good information on the web: Any idea why I cannot get unr to boot in qemu? | 09:15 |
| newtoubuntu2 | bcm4309 | 09:15 |
| newtoubuntu2 | bhuvi: bcm4309 | 09:15 |

| bigRoN | I just discovered an annoyance. I have Ubuntu Karmic 64-bit installed on my computer with a 250 GB internal hard drive. I also have a 3 TB NAS. I created symbolic links for several of my media folders, such as music, photos and download directory into my home directory... to make getting to them easier. Unfortunately, this made Ubuntu think that I had run out of room in my home directory, because the size of these symbolic links wer | 09:18 |
| bigRoN | e larger than the local hard drive. Once I deleted the symbolic links, no more errors saying I was out of drive space. Bizarre. Anyone else experienced this or have any ideas? | 09:18 |
| bigRoN | The symbolic links refer to directories on the NAS if I wasn't clear enough. | 09:19 |
| j3llyf15h | ??///? | 09:19 |
| Rajasun | j3llyf15h: Coz 8.10 carries a 2.6.27 kernel not 2.6.29 | 09:19 |

| isolat3dsh33p | ayeizajedi: Maybe you could change the xorg.conf using the liveCD | 09:25 |
| Beezie_ | ayeizajedi, he considered tracking the old install down and reinstalling it to fix it | 09:25 |
| davep | it works! 3g wifi router >:D | 09:26 |
| Beezie_ | isolat3dsh33p, he can get a console login so he can prolly do it without live cd | 09:26 |
| Rajasun | j3llyf15h: Ubuntu 8.10 intrepid's officially ships and supports a 2.6.27 kernel not a 2.6.29 one | 09:27 |

| Rajasun | 0__0: or just add that deb line I told you about, re-run sudo aptitdue update && sudo aptitude install google-chrome-beta . I have been running it for 2 days already. before that I was using the unstable deb. See http://www.imgplace.com/viewimg44/4683/9609dec2009228gnomee.png | 09:36 |

| chenhui | what about you talked? | 09:38 |
| a2f | anyone know how to install XLibs-dev on karmic? | 09:38 |
| viggy_prabhu | I saw in a wiki that f4 option will give me an option to install a ltsp server | 09:39 |
| viggy_prabhu | But in ubuntu9.10-desltop version, I couldnt find such option, | 09:39 |
| viggy_prabhu | Is it present in 9.10 server version? | 09:39 |
| Beezie_ | viggy_prabhu, or alternate version | 09:39 |
| handsaw | ubuntu web forums often down this long? | 09:39 |
| Beezie_ | viggy_prabhu, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/LTSPQuickInstall | 09:39 |
| viggy_prabhu | Can anybody confirm it, before I download it | 09:40 |
| jtaji | viggy_prabhu: looks like it's on the alternate install cd | 09:40 |
| jtaji | !alternate | viggy_prabhu | 09:40 |
| ubottu | viggy_prabhu: 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 | 09:40 |
| viggy_prabhu | oh ok | 09:40 |
| bhuvi | newtoubuntu2, does it work for u? | 09:40 |

| jtaji | kr_ubuntu: do you actually have a group named example on your system? most likely not... | 09:42 |
| jtaji | kr_ubuntu: some where in your ldap config you need to change that to a real group | 09:42 |
| jtaji | e.g. users | 09:43 |
| indus | !chrome | 09:43 |
| indus | google chrome beta now available | 09:44 |

| indus | time to get rid of crappy firefox | 09:44 |
| indus | om26er: old news buddy, chrome for linux beta is official now | 09:45 |
| Rajasun | Chrome or Chromium let the user decide for himself or herself...each has the right to choose. we aren't some proprietary OS. | 09:45 |
| jtaji | kr_ubuntu: the error is saying it's trying to resolve groupname example to a gid... you do not have an example group in your /etc/group | 09:45 |
| indus | the name is proprietary | 09:45 |
| cell0 | how do i find which files are read/written to the most on my system? Anyone? | 09:45 |
| om26er | indus: know that, but chromium will come with lucid ARM netbook so chromium | 09:46 |

| jussi01 | indus: please dont promote beta software in here. Also, please keep on the topic of ubuntu support | 09:47 |
| jtaji | cell0: the read part isn't going to be at all possible on modern distros.. most use relatime on your disks to disable writing read access time to disk | 09:47 |
| Rajasun | indus: that was meant to be a poke on a well known OS | 09:47 |
| indus | jussi01: its kinda support forthose who aer fed up with firefox | 09:47 |
| jtaji | cell0: you'd have to change that | 09:47 |
| indus | jussi01: so those who ask ff questions in here, iam gonna send them to that link :D | 09:47 |
| kr_ubuntu | jtaji, yes it not there in /etc/group | 09:47 |
| kr_ubuntu | jtaji, so i am do some setting for this | 09:48 |
| albech | isnt chrome just a wine emulation of the windows version, still? | 09:48 |
| cell0 | jtaji: But isn't there a way to determine which file is ACCESSES the most? | 09:48 |
| indus | iam downloading it now | 09:48 |
| Rajasun | indus: i.e. their software lock-in, their behavior, attitude, way of doing things | 09:48 |
| jussi01 | indus: no, it isnt. unless someone comes in and asks, What are the firefox alternatives, I need a new browser". further discussion on what is support and what isnt please join us in #ubuntu-ops | 09:48 |
| DASPRiD | cell0, i bet it's /dev/null ;) | 09:48 |
| om26er | albech: wow | 09:48 |
| Rajasun | albech:nope | 09:48 |
| indus | jussi01: also what is free speech? | 09:49 |
| jussi01 | indus: move on. | 09:49 |
| albech | well forgive me i havent tried it on my linux box.. i wasnt too impressed on the windows | 09:49 |
| indus | jussi01: yes lets | 09:49 |

| jtaji | cell0: not if read access times aren't recorded | 09:49 |

| DASPRiD | did you know that "kino" is the russian word for "movie"? | 09:50 |

| ubottu | DASPRiD: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 09:50 |
| Rajasun | albech: it is a well-known fact that Canonical i.e. the company behind Ubuntu have been extending "engineering assistance" to Google in the development of their Chrome OS. Google for it. | 09:51 |
| indus | DASPRiD: nice info thanks | 09:51 |
| om26er | is there a way to use network-manager in lxde session? no wicd. | 09:52 |
| Rajasun | albech: See http://www.desktoplinux.com/news/NS3436052937.html | 09:53 |
| indus | Rajasun: is your name rajasundaram | 09:53 |
| Daemonis | Okay another question... are there any programs out there that let you create your own Ubuntu themes? | 09:54 |
| ranjan | Hello every body can any body can tell me how to install sound theme in ubuntu 9.10 | 09:54 |
| Rajasun | indus: nope. It is a sarcastic mock on some previously 2002 and now 2012 domdayers. Hint: google zetatalk, nibiru. Been using it for years. | 09:55 |
| Rajasun | ;) | 09:55 |
| albech | Rajasun, i was actually referring to the browser, but I might have misunderstood the conversation. I am well aware that Chrome OS is based on Debian.. | 09:55 |
| jtaji | cell0: relatime only changes access time if the last access time is older than the last write time.. so it's not at all accurate | 09:55 |
| mgv1 | albech, to first expirience the program voice chat | 09:55 |
| === VanDyke_ is now known as VanDyke | ||
| indus | Daemonis: well, theme is a collecition of diff things like an icon set, the window appearance etc | 09:55 |
| Kalessin | Hello, I have a trivial question, but I don't find the answer : I'm running karmic koala with gnome and al. How do I boot in single user mode ? | 09:55 |
| Rajasun | albech: specifically Ubuntu | 09:55 |
| jtaji | cell0: but I mean you can use find to sort files by last access... not sure how you can collect statistical data though | 09:55 |
| indus | Daemonis: so for icons , you can use inkscape , for other things you should ask someone here :) | 09:55 |
| om26er | ranjan: here is an example sound theme package for karmic. sudo apt-get install sound-theme-freedesktop | 09:56 |
| Daemonis | Ah, okay. Thanks ;) | 09:56 |

| indus | !inkscape | 09:56 |
| ubottu | Inkscape is a powerful vector graphics drawing application - see http://www.inkscape.org/ for more | 09:56 |
| indus | Daemonis: many ubuntu theme icons are made using unkscape | 09:56 |
| kraut | does anybody know, why my ubuntu means while it's booting, the raid is degraded, but after the boot everything is fine? | 09:56 |
| Daemonis | Would you be able to use something like GIMP to do it too? | 09:57 |
| nibbler | kraut, what is in /proc/mdstat (or was it mdstats?) | 09:57 |
| indus | Daemonis: gimp is mainly for photo editing but probably yes | 09:57 |
| DASPRiD | Daemonis, but then, with gimp you can only create pixel-icons, not vector-icons | 09:57 |
| virtuald | kalessin: if you don't get a grub menu, press escape for the old grub or shift for grub 2 to get there | 09:57 |
| Rajasun | albech: it may be on their offficial blog...I'm too lazy to dig that page up, go google for itI recall going through the changelog, lots of linux code changes mentioned. Chrome ain't emulation software but Google Chrome for Debian/Ubuntu/FC are native Linux apps. | 09:58 |
| kraut | nibbler: http://pastebin.com/m25ea3057 | 09:58 |
| Rajasun | app* | 09:58 |
| indus | Daemonis: gimp is raster graphics , inkscape is vector, so icons is good with it,you can scale up or down without losing definition | 09:58 |
| ardchoille | Thank you Flannel | 09:58 |

| a2f | anyone aware of any good monitor tuning software for linux? | 09:59 |
| naoshige | hi | 09:59 |
| naoshige | does ubuntu have its own built-in ftpd (like FreeBSD)? | 09:59 |
| kathleen | a2f: to monitor what? | 09:59 |
| indus | Daemonis: then there are gtk tools like widget factory etc | 09:59 |
| Flannel | naoshige: No, but you can install one easily enough | 09:59 |
| pj | how can I set the task bar icons to group in Karmic like they used to in older ubuntu versions? | 09:59 |
| naoshige | Flannel: but then it's like which one do I install | 10:00 |
| naoshige | and i have to do research | 10:00 |
| ravigehlot | Hey everyone...my laptop makes an annoying sound as I use it. It turned down the volume but it still acts up like that. The laptop brand/model is SONY PCG-GRT390ZP | 10:00 |
| naoshige | ask people, get into flame wars | 10:00 |
| Deiz | naoshige: vsftpd is quite popular | 10:00 |
| a2f | kathleen, haha i meant LCD monitor :) | 10:00 |
| naoshige | Deiz: yeah that one is pretty hot | 10:00 |
| Flannel | naoshige: I suggest ditching ftp, and going with sftp | 10:00 |
| a2f | kathleen, something to get the colors right | 10:00 |
| bishops | hello i have this problem, i was trying to install wicd for my internet connection on ubuntu, so it removed the gnome default one, and then it stopped downloading because there wasn't any internet software to connect me. How can I re-install an internet program without being connected? | 10:00 |
| naoshige | Flannel: good idea | 10:00 |
| nibbler | kraut, if you recently rebooted, it seems to be ok - after reboot it sould not talk about "rebuilding" there... do you have differnt harddisk controllers in use? maybe one is found at boot time, and one later? | 10:00 |
| Flannel | naoshige: Unless you need ftp for compatability reasons. | 10:00 |
| naoshige | sshd is already running | 10:00 |
| Tina- | is there a way to get the full source of the unr netbookstarter app? | 10:00 |
| Flannel | naoshige: Then you're already all set up | 10:00 |
| indus | Daemonis: check the gnome dev site for metacity themes | 10:00 |
| naoshige | not really I just need to upload some code | 10:00 |

| kraut | nibbler: it only boots automatically, if i do bootdegraded=true | 10:03 |
| indus | plouffe: try recovery mode | 10:03 |
| kraut | nibbler: that happens after i upgraded to 9.10 | 10:03 |
| indus | plouffe: from grub boot menu | 10:03 |
| artscience | alright the saga continues..I'm so close I can taste it | 10:04 |
| Tina- | is it always that hard when you do a dist-upgrade, seems lot of ppl having issues? | 10:04 |
| nibbler | kraut, well, if you tell him to boot degraded, i am not suprised your raid is degraded during boot. the question would be then, what happens if you dont boot degraded on cammand? | 10:04 |
| frogzoo | Tina-: I upgraded to koala without any issues | 10:04 |
| Tina- | or do they just lack enough common senseµ, | 10:04 |

| Tina- | frogzoo: k , i hope so ;) | 10:05 |
| kraut | nibbler: it asks me, if i want to boot in degraded mode or not, but when i do this, everything is fine as you could see in /proc/mdstat | 10:05 |
| artscience | I reinstalled ubuntu this time with the boot loader installed onto the partition and rEFIt now recognizes it hooray! | 10:05 |
| Rajasun | Tina: It depends. e.g. If you have installed some 3rd party unsupported software on your system, support for some hardware may also have been dropped in the new release (always check the release announcement and related), and then there is the user. | 10:06 |

| Daemonis | have you tried right clicking the little place to the left of the window viewer and going to preferences, pj? | 10:37 |
| naoshige | the current version doesn't work any longer | 10:37 |
| furuno | naoshige: maybe try manual install instead | 10:37 |
| Tina- | naoshige: well then ubuntu is not for you i guess :x | 10:37 |
| naoshige | yeah | 10:37 |
| Daemonis | That is, if your talking about the windows grouping | 10:37 |
| naoshige | I'm using Slicehost, i've been asking them again and again to install FreeBSD | 10:37 |
| naoshige | but it's just not on the top of their list | 10:37 |
| pj | Daemonis: that was it, thanks :-) | 10:37 |
| BadOkami | speaking of ufw, does anyone know why that's not enabled by default? | 10:37 |
| Rajasun | naoshige: or scour launchpad's ppas | 10:37 |
| pj | Daemonis: it would seem that the default in Karmic is to not group windows, but in older versions it always grouped them for me. | 10:38 |

| lars_bauer | Hey i have 2 harddisk, but only one off them is mounted at boot time. How do i install the 2. harddisk ? | 10:40 |
| ardchoille | !fstab | lars_bauer | 10:40 |
| ubottu | lars_bauer: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 10:40 |
| Tina- | shinichineko: if ppl start saying shut up you reached the limit :p | 10:40 |
| furuno | shinichineko: use uname -a and read the output | 10:40 |
| theadmin | wtf. I just had a kernel update, yet I still have just one kernel. | 10:40 |
| shinichineko | Tina-: So noted. | 10:41 |
| Daemonis | Well shinichineko if you're talking about flash for firefox, in 32 bit it is very easy to install but its pretty difficult in 64 bit | 10:41 |
| furuno | lars_bauer: you can mount them manually using nautilus (the file manager), or automatically by editing the /etc/fstab file | 10:41 |
| shinichineko | I'm just trying to play my games ;_;. furuno: I can't make sense of this. | 10:41 |
| theadmin | shinichineko: to install it just use the "flashplugin-installer" package | 10:41 |
| theadmin | shinichineko: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer | 10:41 |
| gypsymauro | hi | 10:41 |
| artscience | Tina-: just to be clear this is only going to install grub to that partition right? I don't want any funny stuff with it attempting to rewrite the partition table | 10:41 |
| Daemonis | does that work in 64 bit too theadmin? | 10:41 |
| furuno | shinichineko: open up terminal, and type "uname -a" if there's "i686" in the output then you're on 32 bit | 10:41 |
| Jimi_Neutral | anyone know how to change thunderbird so that when i reply to a mail my reply goes to the top of the mail not the bottom? | 10:42 |
| theadmin | Daemonis: Guess so... I never tried | 10:42 |
| Tina- | Daemonis: is that true? , in gentoo there is a 64bit flash | 10:42 |
| shinichineko | theadmin: That's an invalid operation. furuno: Ah, I'm 32 bit then. | 10:42 |
| Tina- | artscience: no it only installs grub | 10:42 |
| gypsymauro | I'm trying to print with firefox on file (pdf or ps) but it doesn't generates the file... any hint? | 10:42 |
| ardchoille | Jimi_Neutral: I just configured that, hold on | 10:42 |

| c0p3rn1c | World-writable config file '/etc/mysql/my.cnf' is ignored, it's because I made a network share of /etc/mysql and I can't undo it, any idea how ? | 10:43 |
| shinichineko | Mainly I want to know; I tried installing from the tar from Adobe's site, and according to !flash I should 'cd install_flash_player_10_linux/'. But that doesn't work. :s | 10:43 |
| abhilashm86 | hi twitter people use twidge, a command line tool for sending tweets having all options....... | 10:43 |

| Daemonis | Tina: I'm pretty new to Ubuntu but I ended up reformatting and going from 32 bit from 64 bit because I had so much trouble installing flash. In 32 bit it was just a few clicks but in 64 bit it just wouldn't work. | 10:43 |
| macsim | is it possible to manage the limit before this append on ubuntu menu ( the thing in red) http://macsim.labolinux.net/upload/menu.png | 10:43 |
| theadmin | shinichineko: Well, for me the above command works smoothly. I just tried. | 10:43 |
| furuno | shinichineko: if you want flash, the easiest way is to type this in your terminal : sudo apt-get install flashlplugin-installer | 10:44 |
| Tina- | artscience: i have a grub.iso want me to ompload it? | 10:44 |
| ardchoille | Jimi_Neutral: yeah, ok, open Edit > Account Settings.. go to Composition and Addressing | 10:44 |

| naoshige | and furuno | 10:52 |

| artscience | Tina-: which bringsme to the problem I have now | 10:52 |
| geirha | naoshige: Next LTS will be coming in about 4 months. You can then upgrade directly to that. | 10:52 |
| shinichineko | Ok, well, I think I'm going to have to upgrade. Thanks for the help furuno, theadmin, Tina-, Daemonis, and anyone else I lost in the text scroll. | 10:52 |
| Daemonis | What version will the LTS be? | 10:52 |
| Rajasun | yeah flashplugin-nonfree is a transitional dummy package that can be removed once you have its replacement flashplugin-installer insatlled. I always make it a habit to do both dpkg -l|grep transit and dpkg -l|grep dummy every month or so to purge the system of these cruft. But be warned not every dummy, transitional package can be purged. As to why, maybe the package maintainers to these packages in question are in a better position to p | 10:52 |
| Rajasun | rovide an answer. ;) | 10:52 |

| ubottu | futurama: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 11:05 |
| MenZa | lars_bauer: Could you join me in #ubuntu-dk? It looks like you may have some language barriers. I can help you in Danish there. | 11:05 |
| lars_bauer | i try to add the second harddisc to my filesystem so it is visibel after boot. | 11:06 |
| enoyhs | Hm... Maybe there is some way to make a script that creates a folder after login | 11:06 |
| furuno | lars_bauer: you can install "pysdm" for this | 11:06 |
| furuno | enoyhs: yes of course, but not on the live cd, I believe | 11:07 |
| enoyhs | How is Example folder created on Deskop? Maybe I can edit that script... | 11:07 |
| isolat3dsh33p | enoyhs: you mean automatically mount drives? | 11:07 |
| enoyhs | no, no | 11:07 |
| MenZa | enoyhs: Creating a script run on login would be easy. I'm just curious why you'd want a script like that. | 11:07 |
| furuno | enoyhs: you mean, you want to remaster the cd? | 11:07 |
| enoyhs | I have a homework assigment and my task is to customize LiveCD | 11:07 |

| MenZa | enoyhs: /etc/profile.d/ I guess | 11:11 |
| furuno | futurama: hold on a sec... | 11:11 |
| MenZa | enoyhs: That'd run every login, though. | 11:11 |
| enoyhs | Oh.. profile.d | 11:12 |

| jhaley | Thanks to MS trying to undercut the competition it's cheaper to buy a netbook with XP and then install ubuntu on it than to buy with ubuntu pre-installed | 11:20 |

| frogzoo | well testing linux drivers is more expensive per seat | 11:23 |
| Daifan | on that topic, i have a problem with my sound driver, can someone help me? | 11:23 |
| jhaley | i had a sound driver problem..after trying a bunch of stuff I just did a fresh install | 11:24 |
| Daifan | this is a fresh install | 11:25 |
| psycho_oreos | probably a pulse daemon related issue | 11:25 |
| Daifan | except i dont have the desktop version | 11:25 |
| Daifan | i installed the "gnome for starter" | 11:26 |
| Daifan | and it is limited in packages | 11:26 |
| lcb | hii see this issue from several users but no conclusive answers. my usb keyboard and mouse are suddently having erratic behavior, not responding or too slow on keys and moves. i have no wireless devices connected or active at all, at this point. i'm writing this on console and pasting it here because on regular graphics i can't do it du to the problem. any suggestions to solve are appreciated. | 11:27 |

| researcher1 | when I run the command fdisk -l no partition information is displayed. How do I go ahead in correcting GRUB? | 11:28 |
| ays | Daifan, if you download 9.10 desktop version and boot it first as a liveCD, you should be able to see if your SC is working properly and then do the complete, hdd install .. at least, imho | 11:28 |
| jrib | researcher1: try with sudo | 11:28 |
| researcher1 | ok.jrib | 11:28 |
| ays | sudo fdisk -l | 11:28 |
| Daifan | I'm able to load alsa | 11:28 |

| researcher1 | thanks.it works | 11:28 |

| RaJiL | i have ati propietary driver | 11:30 |
| furuno | RaJiL: System > Preference > Display | 11:30 |
| Daifan | it is onboard, asus | 11:30 |
| furuno | RaJiL: make sure you have installed the driver correctly | 11:30 |
| jhaley | even amazon.com lists hp mini's with linux higher priced than windows. Hopefully their version of ubuntu will still work when i install it. | 11:30 |
| Daifan | my sound package should be snd-via82xx | 11:30 |
| RaJiL | furuno, yes | 11:30 |
| RaJiL | compiz works | 11:31 |
| ays | researcher1, it means that you have boot partion on the hd0 or if you check in your bios that would be the primary first boot partion/hard disk | 11:31 |
| furuno | RaJiL: well driver should be all good then | 11:31 |
| psycho_oreos | researcher1, the first partition on the first detected storage device, bootable with 10+GB? | 11:31 |

| Mendocino | Holy Djihad started against the Hell of FuckBuntu:D | 11:44 |
| bananasfordinner | I have to sudo cupsd each time I restart the computer | 11:44 |
| bananasfordinner | One obvious workaround I can think of is just to gksudo cupsd to the user startup | 11:44 |
| furuno | bananasfordinner: Go to System > Pref > Startup Application and add it there | 11:44 |
| bananasfordinner | but that seems illogical. | 11:44 |
| bananasfordinner | @furuno: | 11:45 |
| bananasfordinner | I tried that, but the best I can do | 11:45 |
| bananasfordinner | is gksudo it | 11:45 |
| bananasfordinner | I don't want to have to type in a password | 11:45 |
| bananasfordinner | on each login to get my printer going, know what I mean? | 11:45 |
| bananasfordinner | In most peoples' installation cups launches automatically, right? | 11:45 |
| bananasfordinner | It doesn't make sense to me if I have to gksudo add it to the startup because my password is longer than typing sudo cupsd | 11:46 |
| bazhang | bananasfordinner, please put all on one line, it is hard to read when you use the enter key so much | 11:46 |
| === anonmatir is now known as mat|spe | ||
| bananasfordinner | Sorry about that. I'm paranoid about getting cut off by maxlength of message. Anyway: my problem is that cups is not launching on boot. Some things I've tried are to stick "gksudo cupsd" in the user startup, but that just seems like a dumb idea because i shouldn't have to type in a password every time I want to start up my printers. | 11:48 |

| chrisw | hmm, don't want to move off LTS | 12:08 |
| chrisw | it's only mysql I want to upgrade, because of a specific bug | 12:08 |
| nperry | chrisw: The only supported way is to do that or wait till 10.04 | 12:08 |
| MenZa | chrisw: You /could/ attempt to just... upgrade from newer packages (for later dists), but it's not something I'd recommend. | 12:08 |
| bananasfordinner | So I'm still having trouble getting cups to run on boot. I've tried to run << sudo update-rc.d cups defaults >> but it says that the runlevel arguments ( 0 1 6) do not match LSB Default-Stop values (1) and that the links already exist | 12:09 |
| MenZa | chrisw: First, you might run into dependency hell, and second, it's not supported. | 12:09 |
| bullgard | furuno: If you could tell me just the filename, I would be happy and could find out its complete path myself. | 12:09 |
| chrisw | hmm, so, source install would be the way to go, right? | 12:09 |
| chrisw | or use MySQL's provided binaries? | 12:10 |
| jrib | bananasfordinner: ubuntu version? | 12:10 |
| bananasfordinner | karmic | 12:10 |
| MenZa | chrisw: I think it might be better to use later Ubuntu binaries. | 12:10 |
| nperry | chrisw: hardy has 5.0.51a-3ubuntu5 mysql-server | 12:10 |
| jrib | bananasfordinner: how are you sure it should be starting that way instead of with upstart directly? | 12:10 |
| MenZa | !info mysql-server | 12:11 |
| ubottu | mysql-server (source: mysql-dfsg-5.1): MySQL database server (metapackage depending on the latest version). In component main, is optional. Version 5.1.37-1ubuntu5 (karmic), package size 62 kB, installed size 100 kB | 12:11 |
| bullgard | furuno: I do not understand your message: "in the status category". | 12:11 |
| ardchoille | chrisw: either way you may run into dependency problems. fwiw, Jaunty is quite nice and newer than what you have. | 12:11 |
| furuno | bullgard: well, "audio-volume-high.png" | 12:11 |
| chrisw | MenZa: but you just told me I couldn't do that... | 12:11 |
| MenZa | chrisw: you *might* have issues with it. | 12:11 |
| bananasfordinner | jrib: right now, cups starts fine if I just type "sudo cupsd" | 12:11 |
| MenZa | chrisw: The thing is, if you install Ubuntu packages, at least you'll have distro-specific paths and such | 12:11 |
| furuno | bullgard: it's in /usr/share/icons/tango/32x32/status/ | 12:11 |
| jrib | bananasfordinner: not my question | 12:11 |
| furuno | bullgard: depend on your them tought... | 12:11 |
| daffies | Hi, Can anybody tell me what if there is a concurrent user limit on Ubuntu 9.04? i use this ubuntu machine as a file server. | 12:11 |
| bananasfordinner | jrib: please rephrase? | 12:11 |
| furuno | bullgard: theme* | 12:11 |
| chrisw | MenZa: and what does that buy me? | 12:11 |
| ardchoille | chrisw: Do not mix release packages, that will most likely cause problems. | 12:11 |
| jrib | bananasfordinner: why are you running update-rc.d? | 12:11 |
| mesdag | weird second monitor isn't working in twinview with the 185.x nvidia drivers but with 173.x it does... | 12:11 |
| MenZa | chrisw: A better change of upgrading to 10.04 in April. | 12:12 |
| bananasfordinner | jrib: somebody told me to. My problem is that cups isn't running on boot when it should be. | 12:12 |
| * chrisw wonders what the poitn of LTS is *grump* | 12:12 | |
| ardchoille | chrisw: support for 3 years on the desktop, 5 years on the server | 12:12 |
| DanielV | Hi guys. Anybody who could help me with a chmod problem? :) | 12:12 |
| MenZa | chrisw: Eventually, if you don't want to upgrade from 8.04 (which is reasonable), you're looking at purely unsupported methods. | 12:12 |
| DanielV | I have a folder belonging to usera. userb needs writeaccess to this directory, so I add him in usera's group, and chmods the dir to 775. Still, no write-access for userb. What am I doing wrong? | 12:12 |

| epinky | chrisw: someone has reported succesful compile on backports here https://bugs.launchpad.net/hardy-backports/+bug/403562/ | 12:14 |
| MenZa | chrisw: Security-based problems are fixed. | 12:14 |
| nperry | chrisw: LTS is support for secruity updates. Most stable updates, you wouldnt like it if they chucked 5.1 in and it broke your server :) | 12:14 |
| mazda01 | my / filled up. i keep getting failed kernel update installs. now /tmp is full of folders named /tmp/mkinitramfs_********, can I remove these? | 12:14 |
| chrisw | MenZa: *shrugs* that doesn't help *me* ;-) | 12:14 |
| ardchoille | chrisw: support means bug fixes and security updates.The Ubuntu packagers don't have any responsibility to fix upstream sources. | 12:14 |
| chrisw | nperry: yeah, I'm nto after 5.1, I'm after bugfixes to replication in 5.0 | 12:14 |
| bananasfordinner | jribd: any ideas ? | 12:15 |
| ardchoille | chrisw: talk to the mysql folks, tell them to fix things so the ubuntu packagers can package the fixes | 12:15 |

| petski | Hi, I wanted to create a backup of some partitions on my hard disk. The external disk, on which I want to create the backup, is formatted as FAT32 (so doesn't support files to be larger than 4 GB). Therefor i used something like 'dd if=/dev/sda6 | split -d -b 2000m - /mnt/external/image' to split it up. Now I would like to mount those splitted images as one image, without needing to concat the image somewhere (don't have storage for that). I looked at 'af | 12:17 |
| petski | flib', but 'affuse' doesn't support this feature. Anywhere else I can look? | 12:17 |

| jrib | bananasfordinner: patience | 12:17 |
| ardchoille | chrisw: The best way I know of is to move from your LTS to something later, but then you're no longer on an LTS | 12:17 |
| furuno | bullgard: np ;) | 12:18 |
| bananasfordinner | jrib: ok :) | 12:18 |
| ardchoille | chrisw: Can you stick it out until April? The next LTS release should be out then. | 12:18 |

| t0mppa | What are some common options for getting a kernel to load properly from GRUB command line? I have a fresh 9.10 install into which I cannot boot and I'm not getting any error messages that would tell me what's wrong. | 12:20 |
| mgv1 | there is a program that allows to make lyrics of songs appear? | 12:20 |
| bananasfordinner | jrib: it isn't starting because when I try to configure printers and I click troubleshoot it says "cups is not running" | 12:20 |
| ardchoille | th3_b0b: Nautilus. Edit > Preferences > Preview tab > Show Thumbnails drop-down menu | 12:20 |
| mesdag | mgvl: amarok? | 12:20 |
| furuno | mgv1: the most accurate IMO is Songbird with the Lyric plugin | 12:20 |
| lividium | nperry: I couldn't find anything that resembled power now in my cmos | 12:21 |
| jrib | bananasfordinner: is it running now? | 12:21 |
| mgv1 | furuno, songbird? ok i will check it | 12:21 |
| furuno | mgv1: you can get it from getsongbird.com, of course, it's open source ;) | 12:21 |
| bananasfordinner | jrib: yes, but only because I typed "sudo cupsd" | 12:21 |
| jrib | bananasfordinner: undo that, does « sudo service cups start » work without error? | 12:22 |
| th3_b0b | ardchoille: And those settings would not only apply to nautilus itself but also to the files on the desktop? | 12:22 |
| ardchoille | th3_b0b: yes, nautilus manages the desktop as well | 12:22 |
| bananasfordinner | jrib: what kill signal do I need to pass again to stop cups? | 12:22 |
| mgv1 | how do i add gmail contact to jabber???//? | 12:22 |
| MenZa | mgv1: Add their gmail addy. | 12:23 |
| th3_b0b | ardchoille, ah, ok, so there is no way of having thumbnails in nautilus but not in the desktop? | 12:23 |
| jrib | bananasfordinner: don't know what cups does | 12:23 |
| jrib | (with signals sent to it8 | 12:23 |
| bananasfordinner | jrib: cups is the print server | 12:23 |
| ardchoille | th3_b0b: not that I know of, nautilus manages it self and everything on the desktop including the wallpaper and icons, etc | 12:23 |
| th3_b0b | ardchoille, Ok, thank you! | 12:23 |
| ardchoille | yw | 12:24 |
| mgv1 | MenZa, what? | 12:24 |
| mgv1 | why i cant find songbird with the manager of programs? | 12:24 |
| MenZa | mgv1: Their Gmail account name. Add that as a buddy. | 12:24 |
| furuno | mgv1: songbird is not packaged for ubuntu, you can get it from getsongbird.com | 12:24 |
| bananasfordinner | jrib: <<sudo service cups start>> works | 12:25 |
| jrib | bananasfordinner: this was after killing cupsd? | 12:25 |
| furuno | mgv1: to install simply extract it in the directory you wish and run it | 12:25 |
| bananasfordinner | jrib: yes. | 12:25 |
| jrib | bananasfordinner: on boot up, that is exactly what is run | 12:26 |
| mgv1 | furuno, ok | 12:26 |
| jrib | bananasfordinner: can you make sure it works fine after a fresh boot as well? | 12:26 |
| bananasfordinner | ok | 12:26 |
| bananasfordinner | i'll be right back | 12:26 |
| mgv1 | MenZa, when i add the gmail address nothing happens in jabber | 12:26 |
| MenZa | mgv1: Well, that's the approach. | 12:27 |
| paschu | Hey guys, everytime i start my torrent client, my connection breakes, is that normal? | 12:28 |
| furuno | paschu: do you use too many connection? | 12:28 |
| lividium | nperry: I couldn't find anything that resembled power now in my cmos | 12:28 |
| furuno | paschu: you need to limit the number of connection or your modem can be overloaded | 12:28 |
| bananasfordinner | jrib: it works on a clean boot. | 12:28 |
| paschu | It isnt overloaded, because i had more connections on windows | 12:29 |
| Tiders | Hmm does Ubuntu have any plans to fix Intel sound card support? | 12:29 |
| paschu | and it worked fine | 12:29 |
| dylan__ | can anyone tell me how to change which folder is displayed on your desktop | 12:29 |
| dylan__ | my intel sound card works just fine | 12:29 |
| Tiders | dylan__, Mine pops whenever activated | 12:29 |
| indus | Tiders: intel sound card? | 12:29 |
| Tiders | indus, Yes | 12:29 |
| furuno | paschu: hmm, try different client? deluge works fine for me | 12:29 |
| bananasfordinner | jrib: it appears that <<sudo service cups start>> is not actually running on boot. | 12:29 |
| paschu | furuno, already tried transmission and delunge | 12:30 |
| indus | Tiders: sure that your card is intel | 12:30 |
| Tiders | indus, Its built into my Asus P6T SE mobo | 12:30 |
| dylan__ | yea uhm how do you change which folder is displayed on your desktop? | 12:30 |
| dylan__ | and who's got windows 7 ultimate running in seamless mode :D | 12:30 |
| indus | Tiders: can u paste output of lshw -C sound | 12:30 |
| drhalan | hey, i cannnot install grub when using the text installer. its always stuck at "detecting other OSes" | 12:30 |

| furuno | dylan__: I've tried the Pro | 12:31 |
| furuno | dylan__: runs pretty well except for aero ;) | 12:31 |
| bananasfordinner | jrib: N 2 | 12:31 |
| furuno | dylan__: on 9.04 tought... | 12:31 |
| dylan__ | furuno: yep, my 3d acceleration won't run with guest additons :/ | 12:31 |
| Tiders | indus, http://pastebin.com/f772920a7 | 12:31 |
| dylan__ | furuno: but other then that i'm happy, i got microsoft office 2007 for free from my college today | 12:32 |
| indus | Tiders: cool thanks | 12:32 |
| furuno | dylan__: well, I've never tried to use 3d in virtual 7 | 12:32 |
| indus | Tiders: so what exactly is the issue | 12:32 |
| jrib | bananasfordinner: why do you believe the script isn't being run on boot? | 12:32 |
| Tiders | indus, Whenever it is activated from being "idle" it makes a popping noise | 12:32 |
| dylan__ | furuno: do you know how to change which folders are displayed on the desktop | 12:32 |
| Tiders | indus, Through my speakers | 12:32 |
| bananasfordinner | jrib: because cups is not running after boot is completed. | 12:32 |
| indus | Tiders: what do you mean activated | 12:32 |
| furuno | dylan__: I don't think it's possible with GNOME, but I guess it can be done with KDE | 12:33 |
| Tiders | indus, So if there is no sound for a while and then there is a sudden sound it will pop... But if playing a game with constant sound it doesnt do it | 12:33 |
| jrib | bananasfordinner: ok. It's more likely it fails for some reason. Does it start without issue now using the service command? | 12:33 |
| indus | Tiders: ok | 12:33 |
| dylan__ | furuno: :/ | 12:33 |
| indus | Tiders: yeah which ubuntu | 12:33 |
| indus | Tiders: 9110 | 12:33 |
| dylan__ | furuno: kde eats your video memory up... so i don't use it | 12:33 |
| bananasfordinner | jrib: yeah. It starts without problem. | 12:33 |
| indus | 9 point one zero? | 12:33 |
| Tiders | indus, I just upgraded to karmic yesterday because everyone says most issues have been fixed | 12:33 |
| indus | Tiders: ok | 12:33 |
| furuno | dylan__: no it actually only, chows on them and spit them back :D | 12:33 |
| Tiders | indus, Is this a known issue? | 12:34 |
| indus | Tiders: nothing fixed, i have some issues too | 12:34 |
| dylan__ | furuno: lol it works fine if i'm not running windows 7 in seamless mode | 12:34 |
| indus | Tiders: fixed for some with new issues for others | 12:34 |
| dylan__ | furuno: but ..... i had to split my ram in half | 12:34 |
| jrib | bananasfordinner: /etc/rc2.d/S50cups is a symlink to /etc/init.d/cups . That means it gets executed on runlevel 2. Have you done anything related to upstart, sysv init, or cups recently? | 12:34 |
| Tiders | indus, Is there already a bug report for it? | 12:34 |
| mgv1 | how do i rip cds like the dw 2003 to make them availble for lyrics plaing in songbird? | 12:35 |
| indus | Tiders: but i dont have major problems | 12:35 |
| indus | some crackle occasionally | 12:35 |
| furuno | mgv1: if you use the Lyric plugin, songbird should fetch the lyric automatically from the internet | 12:35 |
| Tiders | indus, The main time I notice it is if Im sitting typing out stuff in Word with no sound and then someone signs into MSN since the card is being activated it makes a a huge pop and scares the crap outta me | 12:35 |
| furuno | mgv1: just make sure you have the ID3 tag corerct | 12:35 |
| indus | Tiders: really huge pop? | 12:36 |
| bananasfordinner | jrib: Yes. I've messed around with swappiness and concurrency = shell. Other than that, no. | 12:36 |
| mgv1 | furuno, but first i need to rip the files | 12:36 |
| Tiders | indus, Yeah | 12:36 |
| indus | Tiders: maybe search for a bug report i guess | 12:36 |
| jrib | bananasfordinner: get rid of concurrency, see if problem goes away | 12:36 |
| Tiders | indus, ALright | 12:36 |
| bananasfordinner | all right. | 12:36 |
| Tiders | indus How much do sound cards go for if I just wanted to buy one thats compatible and bypass the onboard one? | 12:37 |
| furuno | mgv1: well, you can use other apps to rip the cd | 12:37 |
| indus | Tiders: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1322134 | 12:37 |
| indus | Tiders: oh they are expensive | 12:37 |
| mgv1 | furuno, what like? | 12:37 |
| indus | Tiders: the reason its integrated is cos its very good quality anyway | 12:38 |
| indus | Tiders:like a network card , saves costs | 12:38 |
| furuno | mgv1: SoundJuice, it should be preinstalled (the Audio CD Extractor) | 12:38 |
| indus | Tiders: sound on board has been super since the days of nvidia nforce | 12:38 |
| indus | Tiders: or intel for that matter | 12:38 |
| furuno | mgv1: typo, I mean SoundJuicer | 12:38 |

| nperry | Does sound work everywhere else, LioN__ ? | 12:51 |
| t0mppa | frogzoo: the page only seems to give detail on how to fix grub2 itself, however the grub2 is working just fine, i just can't get the kernel to load up | 12:51 |
| LioN__ | yes | 12:51 |
| mgv1 | IdleOne, still grey | 12:51 |
| CHESLYN | thanks guys i'll try it | 12:51 |
| LioN__ | now I'm hearing Led Zeppelin | 12:51 |
| IdleOne | what is the comand to add a repos? apt-add-repository? | 12:52 |
| nperry | LioN__: Have you checked in System->Prefences>Sound that its not muted for just that application? | 12:52 |
| vulle | any help with NVIDIA drivers? | 12:52 |
| LioN__ | nperry: I'll check it right now | 12:52 |
| IdleOne | mgv1: not sure why it is not letting you add the repo. | 12:53 |
| nperry | LioN__: It needs the game open to see it :) | 12:53 |
| mgv1 | IdleOne, i also have the installation of songbird but dont know how to install it | 12:53 |
| aguitel | i make sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ,install the kernel 2.6.31-16 but it seems not in startupmanager ,anyone know about this ? | 12:53 |
| LioN__ | nperry: yes I know... but it's working fine | 12:54 |
| IdleOne | mgv1: there should be instructions on the website | 12:54 |
| nperry | mgv1: sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install songbird -- if youve added the Repo right | 12:54 |
| t0mppa | so, i guess my earlier question still stands even though triggering plenty of heated replies: if people here or on the forum or on launchpad cannot help me in regards to getting my kernel to load up, should i go post on the kernel mailing list then? | 12:54 |
| IdleOne | nperry: what is the apt command to add PPA? | 12:54 |
| jrib | t0mppa: I have yet to actually see a detailed description of your issue... | 12:54 |
| LioN__ | nperry: yes I know... | 12:55 |
| mgv1 | IdleOne, do you know where are the instructions? | 12:55 |
| nperry | IdleOne: sudo add-apt-repository lp:songbird-daily | 12:55 |
| LioN__ | nperry: it shows 100% but I can't hear anithing | 12:55 |
| nperry | LioN__: Have you checked the game prefences? | 12:56 |
| IdleOne | mgv1: sudo add-apt-repository lp:songbird-daily | 12:56 |

| nperry | IdleOne: Fair enough, everyone likes a up-to-date ubuntu :D | 12:57 |
| t0mppa | jrib: ok, installed 9.10 UNR on my netbook through a LiveUSB session which worked just fine, install went through just fine. then it wanted to reboot and after loading the bios, grub2 loads up just fine displaying the usual options. when i pick the kernel that was just installed, my computer just restarts again, loads bios up again and goes back to grub2 again. however, if i pick my windows installation (on another partition), it | 12:58 |
| t0mppa | loads up perfectly fine. thus i can only get to the grub2 command line and operate any commands that it supports. | 12:58 |

| SandGorgon | Chetic, :) no clue. if it was the Chromium browser, you could have used the inbuilt task manager. Try disabling the addons, one-by-one | 12:58 |

| ikonia | syockit: thinking...... | 13:28 |
| Sorell | Hey guys where's the config file for notify-OSD? | 13:28 |
| rubbs | NET||abuse: I would suggest VNC since you are going to be showing things in the browser. You can tunnel it through ssh to make it secure | 13:28 |
| erUSUL | BlackBishop: Connecting to localhost [::1] <<< is ipv6 ? my localhost resolves to 127.0.0.1 | 13:28 |

| ubottu | Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 13:28 |
| * shurdry rotola allegra e contenta | 13:28 | |
| BlackBishop | no, localhost is 127.0.0.1 | 13:28 |
| rubbs | NET||abuse: I personally haven't used the empathy sharing, but I've heard it works | 13:28 |
| BlackBishop | I've trying ssh 127.0.0.1 -p 5522 too, same thing | 13:28 |
| NET||abuse | rubbs, how can i get an app that has a windows client that's not requiring ssh?? | 13:28 |
| Ratizar | how can i see the model of my wifi | 13:28 |
| Halitech | Ratizar, lspci if its internal, lsusb if its ausb device | 13:28 |
| rubbs | NET||abuse: You could also try the 'screen' command but that only works on command lines. | 13:29 |

| rubbs | CHESLYN: Changing your username won't work if your logged in as it. You have to be completely logged out because you can't have any processes running under your username | 13:29 |
| CHESLYN | rubbs & llutz whats the consequences that i have to face | 13:29 |
| Halitech | Ratizar, could be either or, I've seen some laptops use the usb bus so try both | 13:29 |

| NET||abuse | rubbs, just show them my screen in real time. | 13:30 |
| rubbs | NET||abuse: I would suggest VNC then | 13:30 |
| rubbs | NET||abuse: you can set it as a "read only" type so even if it isn't secure, they can't change anything | 13:30 |
| rubbs | NET||abuse: it has a windows client. | 13:30 |
| rubbs | !vnc | NET||abuse | 13:30 |
| ubottu | NET||abuse: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 13:30 |
| rubbs | CHESLYN: consequences could include a loss of ownership of processes. This can cause problems if you are running something, you won't be able to stop it. | 13:32 |
| BlackBishop | ikonia, however, setting "Port 22" in sshd_config works just great ! :| | 13:32 |
| rubbs | CHESLYN: or if it's running something you need (like bash or something) it won't let you connect to your process | 13:32 |
| radoe | rubbs: processes are always indentified by numeric userid, not username. Displaying a name for this in top/ps/whatever is only an added bonus and not needed by the kernel. | 13:32 |
| rubbs | radoe: apologies, your are correct. Just read that | 13:32 |
| ActionParsnip | t0mppa: try some boot options then, you have forced your system to use the driver which ANY card can use. | 13:32 |
| ActionParsnip | !bootoptions | t0mppa | 13:33 |

| CHESLYN | rubbs: you know what thanks alot.......alot but i think i'll pass this one.i really appreciate what you told and learned me | 13:38 |

| ActionParsnip | rubbs: the question he tped would have sufficed, search engines and their results are quite advanced now | 13:38 |
| Halitech | NET||abuse, vnc is very easy and for the purpose of connecting to you, all they need to do is run the viewer, enter the address and password | 13:38 |

| alankila | LuisGMarine: there is no one language, sadly. You should probably know C, C++ and Python to be able to deal with most common languages you are going to meet. | 14:57 |
| naoshige | LuisGMarine: but the coolest yet most elegant language right now is Ruby | 14:57 |
| LuisGMarine | lol | 14:57 |
| NssOne | ok, so i have an issue with the display for my ubuntu and xserver (im guessing) | 14:57 |
| alankila | these days some applications are written in C#, and Java is also raising its head, though. | 14:57 |

| LuisGMarine | I just want to help Ubuntu & Linux down the line | 14:57 |

| NssOne | i have a netbook with a 1024x768 res, but i can only get ubuntu to load a low res 800x600 res for my display | 14:58 |
| LuisGMarine | I guess C is a good start | 14:58 |
| w1ngnutt_ | LuisGMarine: I agree with alankila, in the languages you should learn. Python is probably the easiest place to start tho | 14:58 |
| naoshige | it's about to phase out Python too, but Python is a great (and similar) language so that's gonna be hard | 14:58 |
| naoshige | are you crazy | 14:58 |
| naoshige | C is HARD AS HELL man | 14:58 |
| naoshige | and it's ugly as f*** | 14:58 |

| naoshige | no ruby | 14:59 |

| anonmatir | why not perl? | 14:59 |
| LuisGMarine | so start learning ruby | 14:59 |
| naoshige | anonmatir: why should he even bother learning languages that are 30 years old? | 14:59 |
| LuisGMarine | lol | 14:59 |
| naoshige | ruby is phasing out perl too | 14:59 |
| naoshige | perl is overly complex | 14:59 |
| krishnan | anonmatir: not chromium. iam using google chrome browser for linux. | 14:59 |

| alankila | I think ruby is probably on its way out. It's still not even installed by default on any system I know. | 15:00 |

| alankila | in contrast, perl and python *are* installed by default. That tells something about how likely you are going to meet ruby. | 15:00 |

| fasta | A particular Java applet does work in Opera, but not in Firefox3.5. How can they even make those things not work? Java Applets exist for more than 10 years already. | 15:05 |
| anti_ | hello | 15:06 |
| mcpasdgarrett | Hi all | 15:06 |
| WeazelON | please guys, i've re-install karmic a few days ago, and did it from an external cdrom via USB, now for some reason, i've noticed, that ubuntu doesn't recognize my internal cdrom | 15:06 |
| alankila | fasta: my simple recommendation is to try and find a replacement for firefox for day-to-day activities. I think it's one of the worst browsers out there except for the many fine extensions it has. | 15:06 |
| anti_ | parle francais ici | 15:06 |
| syockit | fasta: apparently we have many different Java VM, and different versions at that | 15:06 |
| mcpasdgarrett | Can I create a swap partition on a running system using a empty drive that is currently in the system? | 15:06 |
| usamahashimi | hi | 15:06 |
| alankila | mcpasdgarrett: yes. | 15:07 |
| alankila | mkswap a partition, add it to fstab, swapon -a. | 15:07 |
| fasta | alankila, I think Chrome on Windows is the only decent browser. Too bad it has no adblock. | 15:07 |
| syockit | fasta: As for one working in Opera but not in Firefox, yes I think it's a browser problem | 15:07 |
| fasta | Opera is nice too, but too slow, imho. | 15:07 |
| usamahashimi | i have install nvidia driver from repo, i am trying to set resol to 1024x768 but the nvidia-settings tool is giving error that it can not save the settings in xorg.conf | 15:07 |
| paolo | what ext using of ubuntu 9.10? | 15:07 |
| fasta | It might be that they are the only browser which actually renders the webpage like it should, but then the websites are simply too complex. | 15:08 |
| alankila | I believe in webkit personally. chrome is webkit-based so I guess that qualifies. | 15:08 |
| WeazelON | usamahashimi, run "sudo nvidia-settings" | 15:08 |
| mcpasdgarrett | alankila:does mkswap create a partition or just a swap file on an existing partition? | 15:08 |
| usamahashimi | WeazelON: yea, i did that but still its giving this error | 15:08 |
| paolo | why is it ubuntu karmic koala use extension4 ? | 15:08 |
| scythepad | Hi can anybody please assist me with running a .NET executable in wine? | 15:08 |
| fasta | alankila, yes, webkit is a good basis, but the various optimizations Google did do make a difference. | 15:09 |
| alankila | mcpasdgarrett: mkswap can do either. Partitions are just files on linux, of particular, fixed size. They are special files, alright, but still. So, mkswap can make a partition out of any file you point it to. | 15:09 |
| Guest91774 | any help | 15:09 |
| naoshige | alankila: have you developed / designed anything special with python then? | 15:09 |
| WeazelON | usamahashimi: thats weird, should work using sudo... maybe try to add sudo to the launcher itself or something | 15:09 |
| fasta | Haskell is a better Python. | 15:09 |
| alankila | fasta: actually, their javascript is not as good as the squirrelfish thing apple recently built. | 15:09 |
| mcpasdgarrett | alankila: So would there be any difference in using fdisk to create the swap partition vs using mkswap? | 15:10 |
| bradpitt | usamahashimi, do you create xconfig file? | 15:10 |
| alankila | mcpasdgarrett: apples and oranges. mkswap can't partition anything. It can just repurpose a partition for use as swap device. | 15:10 |
| alankila | naoshige: some signal processing applications. | 15:10 |
| fasta | alankila, Javascript is a mistake of course. Why send text to the browser when you can also send bytecode? | 15:10 |
| naoshige | alankila: like what? | 15:10 |
| alankila | naoshige: I deal with audio as hobby so I've used scipy to do some scientific computing, filter design, etc. | 15:10 |
| naoshige | nice | 15:11 |
| usamahashimi | bradpitt: i used nvidia-xconfig and it created the xorg file with only display settings | 15:11 |
| mcpasdgarrett | alankila: So since the drive isn't partitioned I would need to fdisk it and I might as well use fdisk to make the partition a swap partition correct? | 15:11 |
| naoshige | yeah i work with audio too, i love it | 15:11 |
| naoshige | what type of filters though? | 15:11 |
| alankila | fasta: I disagree. | 15:11 |
| fasta | alankila, why? | 15:11 |
| naoshige | im more on the production side though - http://myspace.com/soultanisyourfriend | 15:11 |
| alankila | mcpasdgarrett: you misunderstand the purpose of partition type. Linux ignores it, mostly. | 15:11 |
| scythepad | Hi can anybody please assist me with running a .NET executable in wine? | 15:11 |
| naoshige | damn | 15:11 |
| naoshige | I wanted to show that LuisGMarine this http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?PythonVsRuby | 15:12 |
| mgv1 | ive a little problem - the ubuntu alt cd installation does not responding to keyboard | 15:12 |
| alankila | mcpasdgarrett: when you can flag a partition as swap partition it means nothing to the linux kernel. The filesystem on the partition is all that matters. The filesystem must be a swap filesystem -- it must contain a swap header -- that is what mkswap does for you. | 15:12 |
| sipior | naoshige: still not a language-advocacy channel. leave it alone. | 15:12 |
| mcpasdgarrett | alankila: Ah, that makes much more sense now. Thanks much. | 15:12 |
| alankila | fasta: the javascript text is efficient enough. Shaders for games are uploaded as text files to the graphics driver as well. I suppose you would regard using text for that as mistake as well? I think text is a *great* API. It's accessible, simple, and frankly efficient enough. | 15:13 |
| naoshige | sipior: alright alright | 15:13 |
| usamahashimi | WeazelON: now i run the nvidia-settings as root but still its not saving in xorg file | 15:13 |
| fasta | alankila, well, it might be a micro-optimization. | 15:13 |

| Starcraftmazter | alankila: and how do I get rid of the default one | 15:34 |
| alankila | the reason why 64-bit ubuntu's flash sucks is that it's 32-bit inside nspluginwrapper and that thing works very, very poorly. I had it crashing and stalling practically every second page load. | 15:35 |

| Fish-Face | sipior, that's a fair comment :P | 16:12 |
| ManDay | im really not interested in 2 year old dmesgs | 16:12 |
| michael_campbell | Fish-Face, are you seeing a lot of swap space being used? | 16:12 |
| sipior | ManDay: yes, look at the value of the rotate parameter in the files that correspond to the logs you want to manage. | 16:13 |
| Fish-Face | michael_campbell, some, but not that much - always less than 1G, and usually much less. A clean boot doesn't use any | 16:13 |
| ManDay | sipior, the rotate parameter determines the number of files being kept, i take it? | 16:13 |
| michael_campbell | Fish-Face, I see. Usually thrashing (in the classic sense of the word) is overly ambitious swap usage. =\ | 16:14 |
| Fish-Face | what worries me is that I end up with about 45% memory use, but about 50% taken up with cache. When the remaining 5% is used up, rather than immediately reaping the cache it just hits the harddrive, even with swappiness at 1 | 16:14 |
| sipior | ManDay: yes, have a look at the man page for logrotate. | 16:14 |

| nibbler_ | souch13, and it wont be that easy, so maybe consider getting a better supported cam for like $10 | 16:37 |

| GRiD | hey folks, on a fresh server install of karmic, GRUB is hanging at "GRUB Loading." ... just stops. any pointers? i can't find anyone else with this issue on karmic | 16:39 |
| Gummi_ | GRiD, check if grub is pointing towards correct kernel (that exists) on the correct partition | 16:39 |
| CaptainMorgan | GRiD, did you confirm that installation device (cd) has no defects? | 16:40 |
| bradenn | Gummi: forums seem to be down right now | 16:40 |
| zoug | its been many hours since they are down | 16:40 |
| GRiD | Gummi_, almost positive as this is a fresh install. i'll double check CaptainMorgan, I haven't run that option from the CD, but I've used this CD on another server just fine. | 16:40 |

| ubuntubrokenraid | hi folks, i have a raid 1 setup on karmic ubuntu. its across two drives where /dev/md0 is /root and /dev/md1 is /home. ubuntu *was* complaining that it couldnt mount /dev/md1 (/home)..., so i booted into live cd and ran 'sudo fsck /dev/md0' and 'sudo fsck/dev/md1' and i see: 'The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2"... in addition when i try to boot up, i see the ubuntu logo and nothing happens | 16:49 |

| moreia | I have a potentially problematic question, and I realize this is the kind of thing you're supposed to mess with only after you really understand it but I have a lot of loose partitions on my new Thinkpad, as a result of ... whatever. I just do. I'd really like to wipe the partitions that are extraneous so I can use that space.

| jeph | Anyone? where did the rc iso's go? where did the SHA1sums go? | 16:51 |
| sal_ | it could be causing issues, but i wouldn't expect so. maybe try an older version if you have one, just to get the partition clear. otherwise it could be a hardware issue. but since you're getting permission msgs, maybe something w/ XP | 16:51 |

| legend2440 | jeph: here are the sha1sums but i think the rc (release candidate) were replaced when the final came out http://releases.ubuntu.com/releases/9.10/ | 16:57 |
| grawity | cole__: Maybe Kopete's configuration directory is owned by root for some reason? (Happens sometimes...) Check if you have a ~/.kopete/ or ~/.config/kopete/ | 16:57 |

| Jamed | deserteagle: well at least its readable, so i cant explain the forbidden, but since php outputs an error i think it wouldnt work anyway | 17:17 |
| bradenn | sal: thanks a ton for the advice. I found a thread that indicated someone with a similar problem (but hanging at a different point) had success when using 8.04. I will try 8.04, 8.04 alt, and 9.10 alt and see if one works. should I start with 8.04 alt? | 17:17 |
| b0n1 | can i ask questions about internet in generell here? | 17:17 |
| b0n1 | or whats the best channel to ask such stuff | 17:17 |
| trijntje | petsounds, commenting out the "options snd-hda-intel power_save" line in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf should work, but it doesnt for me.. | 17:17 |
| Jamed | deserteagle: maybe you should try a simple php script that prints one line or something like that | 17:18 |

| piojunbabia | java editor in ubuntu is called eclipse is that right? | 17:18 |
| trijntje | mnaines, i dont know about that, sorry | 17:18 |
| deserteagle | Jamed, yeh, that's what I was thinking | 17:18 |
| b0n1 | my actual question is whether the first 7 digits of the ip identify the router uniquely | 17:18 |
| sal_ | bradenn if you have enough memory, try the regular one first, otherwise the alt uses less ram during install. | 17:18 |
| jess_nc | hieeee | 17:18 |
| b0n1 | because if i reboot my rooter i have a new ip but the seven first digits stay constant | 17:18 |
| piojunbabia | !javaprogramming | 17:18 |
| mahngiel | b0n1: i think the mac address is constant, the ip comes from your provier - if i'm correct | 17:19 |
| d3c3p710n | b0n1, that could be the DSLAM or BRAS you are on that has that IP range assigned to it at the ISP | 17:19 |
| zoug | piojunbabia: you can either use eclipse or netbeans | 17:19 |
| b0n1 | woho d3c3p710n can you repeat that for a noob ? | 17:19 |
| piojunbabia | netbeans... | 17:19 |
| mahngiel | b0n1: you should be able to gain a static ip address from your provider | 17:19 |
| teddymills | if i want to do configure..make/make install...do Ubuntu do this? Or do I need to install some development stuff? | 17:19 |
| sal_ | bradenn if you use 8.04, you can upgrade directly to 10.04 later. if you use 8.10 or 9.04, you'll have to upgrade through each of the release sequentially | 17:20 |
| GiZzY1 | teddymills: try omgz, it has make | 17:20 |

| === kstarr is now known as darksector | ||
| mahngiel | b0n1: i don't know. i'm not sure it is id'd. i think your router allows you to connect to the ISP, and your comp's mac and such are which gives you permission | 17:21 |
| petate | Hi... i have installed Ubuntu 8.0.4 LTS Server and an ethernet card Realtek 8169. Everything works fine until i changed my router to an Dlink DIR 300 and i can't connect to internet. It can't negotiate with DHCP neither static ip. I tried to upgrade the ethernet drivers, but i have problems with the "make". Any help please? | 17:21 |
| petate | Sorry, i had ignore for channels xD | 17:21 |

| piojunbabia | zoug: so installing eclipse will work just fine? | 17:22 |
| mahngiel | b0n1: internet service provider. i.e comcast | 17:22 |
| zoug | piojunbabia: yeah, prettty much | 17:22 |
| dtownhero | petate: that is most likely an issue with your router | 17:22 |
| piojunbabia | zoug: thank you.. | 17:22 |
| dtownhero | petate: are you using Comcast and a cable modem? | 17:22 |
| petate | dtownhero: Comcast? I live in Chile | 17:23 |
| thafreak | petate: I would agree with dtownhero | 17:23 |
| b0n1 | ok admins of a website can see who connects on it right? | 17:23 |
| b0n1 | they can see the ip | 17:23 |
| JediMaster | nm, seems it's a bug in the startup script | 17:23 |
| dtownhero | Oh, Chili... | 17:23 |
| dtownhero | well are you using a cable modem or dsl? | 17:23 |
| petate | dtownhero: dsl | 17:23 |

| d3c3p710n | b0n1, its the just the IP Range that your ISP has purchased, thats it | 17:25 |

| laeg | is there a way other than setting each individual program manually to use alsa to get simultaneous sound? | 17:25 |
| b0n1 | ok | 17:25 |
| dtownhero | d3c3p710n: that is not true if he is pulling an address from his router it has nothing to do with the ISP. | 17:25 |
| zoug | piojunbabia: okai | 17:25 |
| teddymills | Where does all the money goes that ARIN recieves? | 17:26 |
| petate | dtownhero: no... no connection, no ping... it says... DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 8...15... No DHCPOFFERS received. | 17:26 |
| mahngiel | still looking for somebody with some answers... i've lost the ability to boot grub, straight into windows | 17:26 |
| b0n1 | d3c3p710n, i understand, but if it stays the same after a reboot of the router , one cn identify my router just by knowing the first 7 digits right? | 17:26 |
| petate | With Windows works fine, the problem is with ubuntu | 17:26 |
| mahngiel | *i go straight into windows | 17:26 |
| kane77 | hi, I have a problem.. my computer seems to be restarting on boot right where grub should be displayed, how can I find out what is wrong? | 17:26 |
| zoug | mahngiel: what's your problem? | 17:27 |
| nonix4 | mahngiel: boot with live/install cd to rescue mode | 17:27 |
| dtownhero | petate: what you just gave me makes me think that this adaptor is not actually set to dhcp because of the fact that it would not know the subnet addressing scheme of the DHCP server | 17:27 |
| b0n1 | i mean if my isp allows me those ips, no other router can have these | 17:27 |
| dtownhero | until it received an IP | 17:27 |
| mahngiel | nonix4: and that will reinstate grub over windows' boot loader? | 17:27 |
| zoug | mahngiel: install grub from live cd? | 17:27 |
| === Mud is now known as Mud|afk | ||
| dtownhero | b0n1: your ISP is not configuring the IP's that your router gives out. Unless the router is provided by the ISP. | 17:27 |
| mahngiel | zoug, nonix4: i had to reinstall windows, and it over-wrote the boot loader. so now i don't have access to grub | 17:28 |
| nonix4 | mahngiel: need to reinstall grub from livecd... think there must be some howto around on how all the chroot should be done, unless rescue mode has a menu item for that | 17:28 |

| mahngiel | zoug: ya, i got that | 17:29 |
| mahngiel | zoug: ya, i got that (cd) | 17:29 |
| b0n1 | and it allows no other router that range or any ip in that range to mind double ips | 17:29 |
| richart | is it best to install ubuntu first the windows, or the other way? only have 1 hard disk | 17:29 |
| b0n1 | right? | 17:29 |

| petate | dtownhero: i installed g++, gcc, build essential | 17:29 |
| d3c3p710n | dtownhero, if the IP is assigned to the router by the ISP then yeah it does, and if he is using DSL then the DSLAM and also on Cable the UBR will maintain a record of his equipment in the host table, the IP of the router is ASSIGNED by the ISP , the internal ip such as 192.168.x.x is assigned by the router, to answer your question b0n1 if you are on dynamic IP then yes, other people can also obtain them IP address if you are not using them | 17:29 |
| d3c3p710n | and release them, but the isp will maintain a record of who had which IP at which time, i know this because i work for a ISP | 17:29 |
| d3c3p710n | the first 7 digits etc are not your range or your property, more likely your ISP just owns that range | 17:30 |

| beinghuman | that's the command? | 17:33 |
| beinghuman | "install grub"? | 17:33 |
| dtownhero | petate: the card worked until you upgraded the router. What does that tell you? | 17:33 |
| nonix4 | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 17:33 |
| dtownhero | that the card is fine, the problem is with the router. | 17:33 |
| zoug | beinghuman: sudo grub | 17:33 |
| b0n1 | right d3c3p710n ? | 17:33 |
| petate | dtownhero: that ubuntu has some problem with my router | 17:33 |
| dtownhero | no, your router is misconfigured or your card is not actually DHCP | 17:33 |
| dtownhero | since you told me it is looking for a 255.255.255.255 subnet | 17:33 |
| beinghuman | okay I sudo grug | 17:33 |
| beinghuman | grub | 17:33 |
| beinghuman | now what | 17:34 |
| dtownhero | it would not know the subnet until it obtains an address from the router | 17:34 |

| hackel | Hmm, so I grabbed the Karmic DVD torrent in order to speed up the download, but when I went to upgrade, it only used about half the packages from it, and is downloading the other half at only 100 KiB/s and says it's going to take 10 hours!! Is there anything I can do to speed this up? | 18:15 |
| sam__ | andruk no it didn't start | 18:15 |
| jacquesdupontd_ | andruk, this time i have to be sure that the guy knows a lot cause i'm gonna ask some very precise things but ok : Is it possible cause i can't see why it couldn't be, to launch an OS already installed from mu Ubuntu, example, launch my Windows Seven installed in multiboot in Ubuntu without having to reinstall a special Windows Seven from my Virtualisation software ? | 18:16 |
| McRibz | well the only one that does worj isnt really a movie player: Audicious | 18:16 |
| zoug | maverick_: sh executes untitled1, so give permissions to untitled1. or if its already compiled, try running it from terminal | 18:16 |
| McRibz | vlc and movie player will not work | 18:16 |
| andruk | jacquesdupontd_: i doubt it | 18:16 |
| synapsys | hackel, http://releases.ubuntu.com/karmic/ | 18:16 |
| andruk | sam__: did it give any error messages in the terminal? | 18:16 |
| maverick_ | zoug: untiled1 is a txt file, i see no output files in the folder :( | 18:17 |
| McRibz | but they work with standard jack headset | 18:17 |
| hackel | synapsys: how exactly is that supposed to be relevant to what I asked? | 18:17 |
| jacquesdupontd_ | andruk, when we think about it it should be possible even if i know that i aleady asked 2 years ago and everybody told me it was impossble. Logically it should be possible like to relaunch grub mbr from the Ubuntu. | 18:17 |
| Schamane | jacquesdupontd_: i doubt too | 18:17 |
| zoug | maverick_: did you see the permissions tab on that one | 18:17 |
| maverick_ | zoug: i solved it my bad, lol i was looking for permissions in codeblock properties | 18:17 |
| sam__ | no it ask for what program to run i wrote softwar center ask password then stop | 18:17 |
| jacquesdupontd_ | yeah :( sad | 18:18 |
| maverick_ | zoug: thanks a lot man :D | 18:18 |
| andruk | jacquesdupontd_: its possible, but nobody has done it yet as far as i can tell | 18:18 |
| pabelanger | andruk: This is what I would like to do, I want my PPA package to stay a specific version reguardless of the Ubuntu version. | 18:18 |
| zoug | maverick_: ah,coool | 18:18 |
| jacquesdupontd_ | andruk, that's the answer i wanted to hear, i think it would be very hard for me to make it possble alone no ? | 18:18 |
| andruk | pabelanger: then pin the package in synaptic | 18:18 |
| Schamane | jacquesdupontd_: its more than that, everything changes, MBR, target, drivers | 18:18 |
| synapsys | hackel, its a faster way to download karmic | 18:19 |
| jacquesdupontd_ | yeah i know | 18:19 |
| andruk | jacquesdupontd_: depends on who you are. i dont think one person could do it alone, but what do i know. | 18:19 |
| jacquesdupontd_ | it's a lot of work | 18:19 |
| synapsys | hackel, your question didn't make much sense | 18:19 |
| Schamane | jacquesdupontd_: so no windows could handle that, i dunno if seven could handle that | 18:19 |
| daveinps | my Apple bluetooth keyboards won't work with Karmic. The mouse does, however work. Does anyone know the answer? | 18:19 |
| hackel | synapsys: I have already downloaded the DVD, via the torrent, which was very fast. Now that I am upgrading, it is downloading the remaining packages at only 100 KiB/s and it's going to take 10 hours to finish. | 18:20 |
| jacquesdupontd_ | ok i have another very simple question but can't remember how to do it, i would like that my /dev/sdb1 mount automaticly on startup but with read and write permissions. | 18:20 |
| pabelanger | andruk: I am not sure how, or what, that is. Know of any links? | 18:20 |
| synapsys | hackel, ahh now i get it | 18:20 |
| Schamane | jacquesdupontd_: /etc/fstab and googel for the rights you wanna have | 18:20 |
| hackel | I don't recall any previous Ubuntu upgrade going so slowly... | 18:21 |
| jacquesdupontd_ | Schamane, i did had it to the fstab but can't find the right line | 18:21 |
| jacquesdupontd_ | Schamane, here is the line /dev/sdb1 /media/Data ntfs umask=0222 0 1 | 18:21 |
| Schamane | jacquesdupontd_: search for the line of sdb1 ;) | 18:21 |
| jacquesdupontd_ | Schamane, this line should give me read and write permissions no ? | 18:22 |

| plouffe | since upgrading to 9.10 mysql won't connect, and complete removal and reinstall from synaptic brings dependency errors for versions 5.0 and 5.1 alike | 18:24 |

| jacquesdupontd_ | zoug mole tjat ! /dev/sdb1 /media/Data ntfs umask=0222 0 1 +rw ? | 18:24 |
| coz_ | flower, well I dont think there is a cd oh wait maybe today there is since it is alpha1 today | 18:24 |
| jacquesdupontd_ | like that sorry | 18:24 |
| zoug | jacquesdupontd_: not the +....:D | 18:25 |
| jacquesdupontd_ | thx schamane | 18:25 |
| coz_ | flower, but if you want to try lucid ..you can open up /etc/apt/sources.list and change all the "karmic" to "lucid" | 18:25 |
| coz_ | flower, howevr I would go over to #ubuntu+1 channel which is for lucid | 18:25 |
| jacquesdupontd_ | long time i didn't touched the fstab :) sorry | 18:25 |

| terje | hi, how can I disable gnome-keyring ? | 18:28 |
| grawity | terje: short answer: You cannot. | 18:29 |
| terje | I've turned it off in startup-applications but it still starts for some reason. | 18:29 |
| grawity | terje: Longer answer: Why exactly do you want to do that? | 18:29 |
| terje | it's borking my svn commits for some reason | 18:29 |
| grawity | Uh. How exactly? | 18:29 |
| grawity | I had no idea svn uses gnome-keyring. | 18:30 |
| sam__ | andruk is it ok leave it as it is ? | 18:30 |
| jacquesdupontd | does not work, i did sudo umount -a and sudo mount -a and same it told me by the way No new final line at the end of /etc/fstab | 18:30 |
| terje | svn: Commit failed (details follow): | 18:30 |
| terje | svn: MKACTIVITY of '/repos/EnvysionRepository/!svn/act/2fe0266f-fc51-431e-a531-cb72dffc60d6': authorization failed: Could not authenticate to server: rejected Basic challenge | 18:30 |
| Schamane | jacquesdupontd: try umask=007 | 18:30 |
| zoug | jacquesdupontd: okay, write rw after your fs . syntax is like device, mount point ,fs,opt,dump,fsck..http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/Fstab | 18:30 |
| grawity | terje: And if you do 'unset GNOME_KEYRING_SOCKET'? | 18:30 |
| terje | no, I haven't tried that | 18:30 |
| Schamane | jacquesdupontd: try umask=007,gid <-your group id | 18:30 |
| andruk | sam__: yeah, dont worry about it | 18:31 |
| grawity | terje: Then how do you know it's gnome-keyring breaking stuff, and not something else? | 18:31 |
| sam__ | thx andruk | 18:31 |
| jacquesdupontd | cd http://pastebin.com/m17d265b0 | 18:31 |
| jacquesdupontd | sorry | 18:31 |
| jacquesdupontd | http://pastebin.com/m17d265b0 | 18:31 |
| jacquesdupontd | here is my fstab, what should it be ? | 18:31 |
| terje | I don't see that envvar set in my shell | 18:31 |
| grawity | terje: If there's no $GNOME_KEYRING_SOCKET, then there's no keyring either - not one accessible to your svn, at least... | 18:32 |

| AnxiousNut | can gnome-ppp detect win-modems and use them? | 18:32 |
| jacquesdupontd | its written login : jacquesdupontd UID : 1000 | 18:33 |
| jacquesdupontd | Schamane, i should put 1000 ? | 18:33 |
| llutz | AnxiousNut: if kernel supports the modem, yes | 18:33 |
| jacquesdupontd | im on kubuntu but i don't think it changes somethings ? | 18:33 |
| terje | huh, ok. | 18:33 |
| Schamane | jacquesdupontd: /dev/sda1 /Windows ntfs-3g defaults,umask=0 0 0 | 18:33 |

| jacquesdupontd | sorry | 18:34 |
| grawity | terje: Anyway, why were you thinking that it's gnome-keyring breaking everything? | 18:34 |
| Schamane | jacquesdupontd: but yours should be fine too, only ntfs = ntfs-3g | 18:35 |
| jacquesdupontd | it's still ntfs-3g ? | 18:35 |
| trijntje | Sound gives a loud crack just before it starts playing, how can i stop this? | 18:35 |
| jacquesdupontd | no now it's ntfs on karmic | 18:35 |
| eman | someone tel me a good video converter | 18:35 |
| maverick_ | zoug: is there something similar to KDevelop in GNOME (except Code::Blocks)? | 18:36 |
| puremichael | anjuta ? | 18:36 |
| jacquesdupontd | Schamane, this should work : /dev/sdb1 /media/Data ntfs rw,user,auto,umask=1000 0 0 | 18:36 |
| mia738 | sorry, i had the problem, that my apache log (access.log) didnt update. i change the owner rights..but i didnt know whats to do.. | 18:36 |
| jacquesdupontd | Schamane, do you agree ? | 18:36 |
| llutz | jacquesdupontd: ntfs-3g replaced kernel-ntfs in karmic? | 18:36 |
| zoug | jacquesdupontd: i have karmic and has ntfs-3g | 18:36 |
| jacquesdupontd | zoug, ok but you installed it ? | 18:37 |
| Schamane | jacquesdupontd: should work | 18:37 |
| zoug | jacquesdupontd: naah..def | 18:37 |
| === fran is now known as Guest82036 | ||
| jacquesdupontd | i thought ntfs-3G was before ntfs was reconised like on dapper | 18:37 |
| ctmjr | AnxiousNut: it's been a long time since i tried to get a winmodem working on linux here is a link you can read up on it is a pain as winmodems are just softmodems and you need to get linux drivers for the chipset http://www.linmodems.org/ | 18:37 |
| jacquesdupontd | that's all gonna try my line | 18:37 |
| llutz | jacquesdupontd: nop | 18:37 |
| llutz | e | 18:37 |
| llutz | !ntfs-3g | jacquesdupontd | 18:38 |
| ubottu | jacquesdupontd: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions | 18:38 |
| jacquesdupontd | i know | 18:38 |
| jacquesdupontd | but now we don't need it anymore in karmic that's all i'm saying write ? | 18:38 |
| maverick_ | does ubuntu slow down over time (like windows) after installing to many apps and stuff.. | 18:38 |
| Schamane | jacquesdupontd: ah, so it is stil ntfs-3g :) | 18:38 |
| jacquesdupontd | i know i could pass by ntfs-3g | 18:38 |
| zoug | jacquesdupontd: how does it matter if we use it? | 18:38 |
| thiebaude | maverick_, not that i know of | 18:38 |
| zoug | maverick_: i use netbeans | 18:38 |
| Alinn | iceroot: Thanks :) | 18:39 |
| maverick_ | zoug: thanks | 18:39 |
| jacquesdupontd | zoug, it does not matter but it's not needed fromthe beginnning that's all | 18:39 |
| jacquesdupontd | zoug, but easier to set maybe | 18:39 |
| llutz | jacquesdupontd: ntfs = kernel = user read-only | 18:39 |
| jacquesdupontd | gonna try my line | 18:39 |
| maverick_ | thiebaude: ubuntu boots in 10 seconds at my place, i hope it dosent slow down...thanks | 18:39 |
| jacquesdupontd | llutz, ouch that would explain all | 18:39 |
| zoug | jacquesdupontd: its read-only, but you wanted rw too right? | 18:39 |
| jacquesdupontd | llutz, then you advice me to install ntfs-3g if i want rw ? | 18:39 |
| thiebaude | maverick_, mine doesn't boot that fast | 18:39 |
| llutz | jacquesdupontd: if it hadn't changed dramatically in the last weeks | 18:39 |
| mia738 | hm did you see my question? i change the owner richts of the access.log (apache2) and know the webserver didnt log. what are the correkt owner settings? apache restart didnt help | 18:40 |
| jacquesdupontd | was not thinking i should need to install ntfs- | 18:40 |
| llutz | jacquesdupontd: sure, why do you think i gave you the ntfs-3g factoid | 18:40 |
| jacquesdupontd | 3g | 18:40 |
| jacquesdupontd | but i'm onna insall it | 18:40 |
| Alan502 | Playing with gimp i unchecked "show menu bar" =P how can i renable it? | 18:40 |
| maverick_ | thiebaude: it maybe because i just installed it 10 days ago, (boot meaning till the login screen) | 18:40 |
| jacquesdupontd | llutz, yeah yeah sorry my fault didn't knew tht informatino | 18:40 |
| jacquesdupontd | llutz, to use it i have to sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g | 18:41 |
| Tashi | good evening (at least at my site) | 18:41 |
| thiebaude | ahh ok | 18:41 |
| jacquesdupontd | no ntfs-3g not needed | 18:41 |

| jacquesdupontd | i show my line for others : /dev/sdb1 /media/Data ntfs rw,user,auto,umask=1000 0 0 (because my umask is 1000 | 18:42 |

| duck_tape | anybody know if there is a x86_64 version of server edition for ubuntu? | 18:45 |
| elnovato | How to install MS SQL php support on ubuntu?? | 18:45 |
| grawity | Guiri: Delete the revoked key and re-import from a valid copy. | 18:45 |
| grawity | duck_tape: Yeah, look for "amd64" in the website. | 18:45 |
| zoug | piojunbabia: so how about a simple hello world program so that you know it works | 18:45 |
| duck_tape | grawity: but that would be amd not xeon correct? | 18:46 |
| Schamane | duck_tape: 64 bit is 64 bit | 18:46 |
| laeg | "Sorry. The administrator has banned your IP address. To contact the administrator click here" - wtf?! is there something wrong with the forums? | 18:46 |
| piojunbabia | zoug: i wonder how to compile it...i made a hello world program already | 18:46 |
| Frash | Do you know if there is a way to call the gnome version of X-Chat from command line? | 18:46 |
| grawity | duck_tape: The same architecture is used by both Intel and AMD; "amd64" is just the old name for x86_64. | 18:46 |
| zoug | piojunbabia: have not been to eclipse since long, but it should be near and easy | 18:47 |
| duck_tape | ok thank you…. I just wanted to confirm that it would also work for Intel | 18:47 |
| elnovato | please ban laeg he is cursing, im just 13 | 18:47 |
| grawity | duck_tape: IIRC, it's called so because when amd64 was created, Intel had its own 64-bit architecture (which died really quick) | 18:47 |
| grawity | Frash: xchat-gnome | 18:47 |
| Frash | Thanks! | 18:47 |

| piojunbabia | zoug: let me figure it out... i am not sure i could... | 18:48 |
| Schamane | grawity: itanium? ;) | 18:48 |
| Frash | It's just because I was trying to figure out and ended up installing the old version instead :) | 18:48 |
| grawity | Schamane: Mhm. | 18:48 |
| iceroot | hdtdi: ##windows | 18:48 |
| zoug | piojunbabia: should be easy. never been on an ide before? | 18:48 |
| grawity | Frash: The non-GNOME one? It isn't "old" or anything, just a different program. | 18:48 |
| piojunbabia | zoug: in school we use jcreator as editor | 18:49 |
| duck_tape | any tips on getting ubuntu working/booting from an external USB drive? | 18:49 |
| Frash | Thank you again! | 18:49 |
| piojunbabia | zoug: this is my first time to use beside jcreator | 18:49 |
| nonix4 | grawity: actually at least ia64 still lives... at Itanium niche of the market. | 18:49 |
| iceroot | duck_tape: install on the usb-drive, enable usb-boot in bios | 18:49 |
| iceroot | duck_tape: thats all | 18:49 |
| zoug | piojunbabia: ok | 18:49 |
| mikejet | Why does "lp file.pdf" print with slightly more magnification than the document viewer evince prints pdfs at? | 18:50 |
| duck_tape | non of the GRUB like stupidy about not finding the drive etc? | 18:50 |
| duck_tape | s/non/none | 18:50 |
| iceroot | duck_tape: no, just enable usb-boot in bios | 18:50 |
| iceroot | mikejet: tried lpr? if i am correct evince is using lpr not lp | 18:51 |
| grawity | I thought evince just passes stuff directly to CUPS. | 18:51 |

| arek | he | 18:52 |
| mikejet | lp and lpr are both from the cups package. Actually, it seems like "lp x.pdf" is the correct 100% magnification. It is evince that is doing 95% (to guarantee it fits on the page?) | 18:52 |

My old harddrive crashed and I think that it was because it got too hot in my small pc so now I bought a handy little compact flash -> ide connector and I'm desperately trying to install kubuntu but it just won't work. It always hangs up at the step of hardware detection. I already tried to install other distributions and Debian Lenny does the job. Also installing on an ide drive and dd-copyin | 18:55 |
| Tashi | g the installation from the ide disc to the cf card and then booting from an usb reader works. | 18:55 |

| Tashi | nonix4: I even managed to install a working kubuntu on an IDE Hard Drive with the same cable. Copied that over on to the card (partition sizes matched) and started from that in rescue mode. Last thing was something with lost interrupt while loading libudev.so | 19:01 |
| llutz | grawity: jacquesdupontd no basename needed, just shell: name=${1##*/} | 19:02 |
| jacquesdupontd | grawity, to be sure the url is having a .avi inside cause i had a megaupload bypass that was giving url like tinyurl | 19:02 |
| jacquesdupontd | so then if there's not the name of the movie inside the url it does a tempmov.avi | 19:03 |
| Tashi | The funny thing is with Debian Lenny it works perfectly. | 19:03 |
| Tashi | But I want a little bit more recent software ;) | 19:04 |
| jacquesdupontd | anyway that's the way i did it for it to work and it works perfectly in any case and i like it like that and that was a gift for people who needs it, there is surely way to do it less long but who cares | 19:05 |

| VirusTB | mkquist, listening to some dude in thi chat room! (i had nothing to lose so i delet the parttion) | 19:08 |
| gOLDfeesh | If you're installing Ubuntu to a USB you don't touch your partitions at all well not your comp ones at all but the ones on your USB you do | 19:08 |
| mkquist | VirusTB: do you still want ubuntu? or was that the point? | 19:09 |
| maco | mkquist: the intention was a reinstall | 19:09 |
| jacquesdupontd | grawity, yeah really great | 19:09 |
| VirusTB | gOLDfeesh, ok | 19:09 |
| jacquesdupontd | grawity, don't you find this script interesting ? now i watch movies directly even in full hd | 19:09 |

| mkquist | VirusTB: ahh ic | 19:09 |
| gOLDfeesh | maco no, people need to learn that not everything is "fix it for me" and that they have quick help links that they can follow | 19:09 |
| jacquesdupontd | grawity, i have a 1700 ko/s connection on megaupload | 19:09 |
| VirusTB | gOLDfeesh, maco mkquist ok so if i re install my ubuntu to the empty partition on my sytem i will get my GRUB back and can boot WIN XP? | 19:09 |
| maco | gOLDfeesh: if they've already been given an answer, you dont need to have teh bot repeat the answer. and no, they dont need to learn that | 19:10 |
| VirusTB | mkquist, i guess he wasnt a expert, (but i learned from his mistakes) | 19:10 |
| maco | VirusTB: yes | 19:10 |
| gOLDfeesh | VirusTB if you didn't delete your windows partition | 19:10 |

| jacquesdupontd | llutz, seems that's what i want | 19:17 |
| jacquesdupontd | llutz, but it looks like risky a lot | 19:17 |
| llutz | jacquesdupontd: you always risk your installations, back it up before testing | 19:18 |
| jacquesdupontd | llutz, i don't want to install a new version of windows 7 just for virtualisation, would be so great to use the already installed one. I thought it was a dream of many people in virtualisation history | 19:18 |
| starlynite | could somebody tell me where I can find a channel for Absolute Linux? | 19:18 |
| llutz | jacquesdupontd: one problem is differing hardware inside/outside virtualization | 19:19 |
| jacquesdupontd | llutz, i back up every 2 days anyway, i'm on a 32 gb ssd disk for my Windows Seven and Ubuntu so the access time is really fast, like i but Kubuntu in 3, 4 seconds | 19:19 |

| Mainstay | Does anyone have any info on this problem, it makes me want to stab myself: my editor doesn't detect that the currently open file has changed on disk (and prompt me to reload). This happens with files across a network. Any input on how to deal with this, background on this if it's a known issue etc? | 19:19 |
| jacquesdupontd | llutz, that's why xen and hardware virtualisation from intel core i7 are interesting | 19:19 |

| maco | VirusTB: the installer should let you do it | 19:22 |
| tsimpson | elconsulto: just make sure you have php5-mysql installed | 19:22 |
| maco | VirusTB: yes it does | 19:22 |
| VirusTB | maco, without losing Data right? | 19:22 |

| DarkStar_ | that worked sudo aptitude install ndiswrapper | 20:14 |
| Richard123 | Soreau, If I boot a cd - will I loose data on the drive? | 20:15 |
| DarkStar_ | now what? | 20:15 |
| soreau | Richard123: No. The live cd specifically tells you it will not make any changes to your computer. It runs in RAM, but can still perform r/w on the hdd | 20:15 |
| robbmunson | LinuxPhreak1: I stepped on your toes I believe on this one, sorry friend. | 20:16 |
| WizardOfOz | Guess who! | 20:16 |
| DarkStar_ | how do i run ndiswrapper? | 20:16 |
| * Callum sighs | 20:16 | |
| Callum | What a bloody good scare that was | 20:16 |
| === david is now known as Guest36276 | ||
| LinuxPhreak1 | robbmuson: we're all here to help each other not a problem | 20:16 |
| robbmunson | Callum: fixed? | 20:16 |
| Richard123 | soreau, OK, is this the same CD I installed Ubuntu with originally? do I just run it in windows? (sorry, just checking). | 20:17 |
| LinuxPhreak1 | now the NDIS package should reconize them | 20:17 |
| LinuxPhreak1 | if not then use | 20:17 |
| Callum | After booting into Mythbuntu 9.10 LiveCD and finding that its fsck is useless and doesn't respond to anything, I rebooted back into this Ubuntu and found that fsck repaired the filesystem before it booted... | 20:17 |
| LinuxPhreak1 | ndiswrapper comand with the name of the .inf file in Terminal | 20:17 |
| soreau | Richard123: 1) Yes. 2) No. | 20:17 |
| soreau | Richard123: It is bootable, meaning you boot with that cd | 20:17 |
| WizardOfOz | How do I make my Mic to work on Acer Zg5 | 20:18 |
| DarkStar_ | idk the .inf file :( | 20:18 |
| Callum | robbmunson: in other words yes | 20:18 |
| Callum | what puzzles me more is how it happened though =/ | 20:18 |
| robbmunson | Callum: yay | 20:18 |
| Callum | I just pressed the 'Back' button on Firefox and everything just came crashing down | 20:19 |
| rish | ma chuda lo | 20:19 |
| DarkStar_ | where do i get the .inf file? | 20:19 |
| robbmunson | Callum: sometimes all it takes is nothing..(strange but its true) | 20:19 |
| zinox | i cant save nvidia-settins conf because i get error >> Failed to parse existing X config file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'! man... this xorg.conf on ubuntu 9.10 is so strange... i don't know why i have do to fix any screen resolution.. when i change it .. after reboot resets to 1024x76.. | 20:19 |
| LinuxPhreak1 | DarkStar_: excuse me for going back to beginning best way to persus this is go to Ubuntu Package Manager search NDIS and install restart and should be working | 20:19 |
| DarkStar_ | so i have it isntalled. reboot the pc? | 20:19 |
| Callum | zinox: use nvidia-settings as a superuser ('sudo nvidia-settings') | 20:20 |
| strywgr | zinox. | 20:20 |
| DarkStar_ | if so bbib :) | 20:20 |
| DarkStar_ | gonna reboot :) | 20:20 |
| zinox | i did it | 20:20 |
| DarkStar_ | exit | 20:20 |
| DarkStar_ | oops | 20:20 |

| * Callum is afraid to use 'Back' button on Firefox | 20:21 | |
| strywgr | kindly follow the command im asking you to. | 20:21 |
| boss_mc | zinox: try moving your xorg.conf to xorg.conf.bak then using nvidia-config as root | 20:21 |
| strywgr | zinox : sudo nvidia-xconfig - type this and tell me the output. | 20:21 |
| zinox | ok | 20:21 |
| soreau | Richard123: Correct. | 20:21 |

| robbmunson | Callum: well, go for it and try it...we're always here for ya :) | 20:22 |
| strywgr | zinox : done? | 20:22 |
| zinox | not yet | 20:22 |

| LinuxPhreak1 | Anyone no how to fix the following http://bdtsworld.myftp.org/images/ the I need to fix the name of the drives | 20:23 |
| Callum | well, going back to the same page and then pressing Back doesn't do it anymore... | 20:23 |
| robbmunson | Callum: I would say "issue resolved" then! :) | 20:23 |
| zinox | blank output | 20:23 |
| Callum | =P | 20:23 |
| strywgr | aright, now do -> sudo nvidia-settings | 20:23 |
| strywgr | and try to save the settings. | 20:23 |
| zinox | i am try install nvdia-config command | 20:24 |
| Callum | maybe my filesystem was just tired, Ubuntu hasn't done the usual check filesystem every once in a while thing since this was installed around 2 months ago | 20:24 |
| llutz | LinuxPhreak1: what filesystem? | 20:24 |
| zinox | i don't know what package provide it | 20:24 |
| strywgr | are you using any graphics card? | 20:24 |
| mattgyver | LinuxPhreak1, maybe just try and cheat, do a sudo nautlius <path to directory above> and see if you can f2 and rename it | 20:24 |
| zinox | fx5500 | 20:24 |
| LinuxPhreak1 | llutz: I believe ext2 or 3 | 20:24 |
| LinuxPhreak1 | How would I know | 20:24 |
| robbmunson | Callum: if ever in doubt you can always force a filesystem check :) | 20:24 |

| llutz | LinuxPhreak1: tune2fs -L newname /dev/sdXY | 20:25 |

| Snausages | MudyBoots: so maybe your sound drivers are whack. Maybe yank sound for a while to see if it stabilizes, add it again later? | 20:38 |
| Callum | for Linux distros, you will probably see the mounted Guest Additions ISO on the desktop but you will have to open the "autorun.sh" file inside there from a terminal window | 20:39 |

| velcroshooz | eitreach: ooh no idea there | 20:40 |
| Snausages | MudyBoots: possibly.... I don't know sound well. :( | 20:40 |
| LinuxPhreak1 | I figured that one | 20:41 |
| genii | eitreach: A "DLNA" server is a box whose equipment is all on that list | 20:41 |
| MudyBoots | Snausages, Thanks anyway worth a shot | 20:41 |
| zengeos | I have Jaunty somewhere...let me see if I can't find it. Mandriva 10 installed ok, but can't find the network card, so thought I'd try Ubuntu synapsys. | 20:41 |

| zengeos | but Ubuntu won't even load live cd | 20:42 |
| zengeos | hrmmmph. used to ubuntu being easiest install of all | 20:42 |
| synapsys | i think mint took over that title | 20:42 |
| TcP | Callum i hit the install guest additions and the box didnt do anything | 20:42 |
| velcroshooz | genii: i imagine he is asking about streaming software specifically | 20:43 |

Is it likely that my kernel is missing usb support? If so, what do I need to do to get these missing modules? | 20:56 |
| trism | jMyles: you could do something like find directory_name -name *.avi -exec mv {} /path/to/output_directory \; check -print first though to make sure you have the right files | 20:57 |
| easyname | jrib, what other information should I add to my request? I gave my Ubuntu distro and the model of the card. | 20:57 |
| jMyles | trism: what is the {} in that command? | 20:57 |

| Alan502 | VirusTB, np, tell me how it goes | 21:36 |
| jayce | edbian - previously I would just assign them an IP and netmask in the network interface file, reboot, and Id have that IP assigned to me so I could access my web based imaging program that runs on these linux laptops. So I NEED this IP to work to even access the program. | 21:36 |

| jayce | edbian - because, this is just how my setup is. I have individual lans with ZERO outbound access. Period. None. No IP conflicts. All internal little LANs on 24 port switches to do my imaging. I already configured the program for this IP, so I want to use this IP. Theres no reason I CANT use this IP, and theres no reason for Ubuntu to not work on 1 PC but work on another thats identical. | 21:39 |

| meowbuntu | VirusTB, see !usb ^ | 21:41 |
| ddan | can any help my with my old radeon 7200 and OpenGL? | 21:41 |
| VirusTB | !usb | 21:41 |
| ubottu | For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 21:41 |
| Alan502 | VirusTB, that would work, boot from live cd and search for USB startup disk creator under system. Be sure to select your Ubuntu netbook remix iso, otherwise it will copy a normal ubuntu installation. | 21:42 |
| edbian | jayce: I admit it is very odd. You should be able to use whatever IP you want. Unfortunately it sounds to me that if DHCP works flawless but static does not work then there must be an error on the network not on that system. | 21:42 |
| meowbuntu | VirusTB, live usb install | 21:42 |
| jayce | edbian - but theres no network. | 21:42 |
| jayce | edbian - this is on the computer itself. | 21:42 |
| jayce | Im not plugged in anywhere. I dont need to be when using static ips with the network interface file. | 21:42 |
| jayce | that rules out network, and it rules out the card because it works dhcp - what else but the OS at this point? :( | 21:42 |
| VirusTB | Alan502, i dont have netbook remix ISO.. i have dektop_i386 iso | 21:42 |
| edbian | jayce: ?? You're configuring your network interfaces to run without a network? | 21:42 |
| jayce | edbian - yes. See, check it... when you assign yourself a static IP with a network manager, you need to be plugged in. Right? | 21:43 |
| meowbuntu | VirusTB, i would by a cheep 1-2gig flash drive and use it only for live usb as you have a netbook. | 21:43 |
| ddan | can any help my with my old radeon 7200 and OpenGL? | 21:43 |
| itilious | robbmunson, i'm trying to get windows7 to dual boot with ubuntu, is this possible for a newbie to linux? lol | 21:43 |
| VirusTB | Alan502, so boot up in live CD mode | 21:43 |
| edbian | jayce: yes... | 21:43 |
| jayce | edbian - but when you assign a static IP with the network interface file, it seems to "hardcode" it into the NIC - so I can have a legit static IP assigned to me with ZERO plugs connected to the computer | 21:43 |
| robbmunson | itilious: absolutely! :) | 21:43 |
| VirusTB | meowbuntu, my netbook HDD is 160GB | 21:43 |
| meowbuntu | VirusTB, then you can install the latest live cd on it and keep up to date. | 21:43 |
| jayce | edbian - trust me, I have 2 laptops on myd esk now. Both are identical. One works. One doesnt. Neither is plugged into the network. | 21:44 |
| robbmunson | !dual boot | itilious | 21:44 |
| ubottu | itilious: Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo - MACs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot | 21:44 |
| jayce | edbian - this is nice because I can always access my web based GUI for this imaging program I use, since I always retain the IP tied to eth0 | 21:44 |
| edbian | jayce: Ok, so this application sends data through this IP address? | 21:44 |
| edbian | jayce: OIC a web interface. | 21:44 |
| jayce | edbian - more or less, yes. | 21:44 |
| jayce | edbian - its weird because in kubuntu (my personal laptop acting as a 3rd image server) it didnt work either | 21:45 |
| lzrdking | jayce: any error messages? | 21:45 |
| VirusTB | Alan502, so should I boot up in LIVE UBUNTU CD ? | 21:45 |
| jayce | edbian -b ut I know in ubuntu it does, after all, Im looking at the laptops now | 21:45 |
| dustofdust | hi | 21:45 |
| jayce | lzrdking - just unable to bring up eth0 | 21:45 |
| Alan502 | VirusTB, You will need a netbook remix if you want to install netbook remix on your acer one. Otherwise, you can always install the normal desktop edition on your acer one, But, from my experience, Ubuntu desktop will run pretty slow on acer one. You will need Ubuntu netbook remix or Xubuntu | 21:45 |
| meowbuntu | virtuald, ok thats fine. if i could get a netbook i wonder what i could do. | 21:45 |
| jayce | Im gonna plug into my imaging switch w/o any other network access and see if I pull the static IP at least | 21:45 |
| Alan502 | VirusTB, for a suitable speed | 21:45 |
| dustofdust | i have a problem with ekiga, it does not play any sound | 21:45 |
| lzrdking | try ifconfig eth0 up at the command prompt | 21:45 |
| meowbuntu | ok i am now installing updates and get this maeeage. about weatjher i should keep current grub or update it. what should i do | 21:46 |
| lzrdking | see what you get | 21:46 |
| VirusTB | Alan502, ok i will download Netbook Remix.iso | 21:46 |
| jayce | edbian - with windows XP, if you assign yourself a static IP, you still get the IP even with nothing plugged in - right? | 21:46 |
| VirusTB | Alan502, and when i have netbook remic, burn it to a disk? an use it in Live mood | 21:46 |
| Alan502 | VirusTB, ok tell me how it goes | 21:46 |
| jayce | lzrdking - whoa, permission denied | 21:47 |
| edbian | jayce: I understand what you're tying to do. Why don't you use the loopback interface? Then you don't have to fuddle with your real network card. Can you connect to the internet while these machines are behaving this way? | 21:47 |
| jayce | lzrdking - red flag there? | 21:47 |
| jayce | edbian - I dont need to connect to the internet on these machines. These are temp solutions to image a large amount of laptops in a short amount of time. | 21:47 |
| lzrdking | jayce, sudo ifconfig eth0 <ip address> up | 21:47 |
| Alan502 | VirusTB, when you have the ubuntu netbook remix; Boot from UBUNTU DESKTOP LIVE CD on this computer. Select the USB startup disk creator when you are in live. In the USB startup disk creator select your downloaded UBUNTU NETBOOK REMIX iso. It should not be too difficult but if you have problems, come back :( | 21:48 |
| Alan502 | :)) | 21:48 |
| Alan502 | VirusTB, that :( was supposed to be a :) | 21:48 |
| edbian | jayce: Is the machine imaging its self? | 21:48 |
| Alan502 | VirusTB, typos XD | 21:48 |
| jayce | edbian - no, it acts as a server | 21:48 |
| meowbuntu | !regester | 21:48 |
| itilious | how difficult is it to access a windows workgroup share from an ubuntu machine? | 21:48 |
| jayce | lzrdking - got the IP now | 21:49 |
| bobbyyu | I have a problem with Samba lately. I can't see the Samba shares that my current machine is sharing. | 21:49 |
| VirusTB | Alan ok, jus finished Nebook remix | 21:49 |
| jayce | lzrdking - gonna reboot and see if I retain the IP | 21:49 |
| meowbuntu | !register | 21:49 |
| ubottu | Information about registering your nickname: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#userregistration - Type « /nick <nickname> » to select your nickname. Registration help available in #freenode | 21:49 |
| lzrdking | jayce: you won't | 21:49 |
| itilious | i can see the "workgroup" from the network location on ubuntu but it fails to "mount" everytime | 21:49 |
| VirusTB | VirusTB, NOTE TO SELF:: when you have the ubuntu netbook remix; Boot from UBUNTU DESKTOP LIVE CD on this computer. Select the USB startup disk creator when you are in live. In the USB startup disk creator select your downloaded UBUNTU NETBOOK REMIX iso. It should not be too difficult but if you have problems, come back | 21:49 |
| jayce | lzrdking - why not? :( the other laptop does... | 21:49 |
| jayce | gahhh | 21:49 |
| bobbyyu | I edited the smb.conf but Samba seems to ignore what I wrote on smb.conf | 21:50 |
| rwt | hello | 21:50 |
| lzrdking | jayce: you'd need to put it in a config file somewhere, but i don;t know where | 21:50 |
| jayce | lzrdking - youre right, I didnt | 21:50 |
| jayce | lzrdking - what do you think is diff between these machines? | 21:50 |
| jayce | same install... | 21:50 |
| ddan | Need help, all my graphics work except OpenGL apps and other 3D programs | 21:50 |
| jayce | done at same time... | 21:50 |
| lzrdking | jayce: but if its just to image, why does it need to be permanent? | 21:50 |
| asimismo | So I see in Keyboard preferences (9.10) that I can turn repeat keys off and on. Is there a way to configure with more resolution? That is, backspace, for instance, should have repeat on but CTRL should not. | 21:50 |
| Alan502 | VirusTB, that was fast | 21:51 |
| itilious | i get the error "Failed to retrieve share list from server" everytime i try to access a windows share | 21:51 |
| jayce | lzrdking - I understand, its just the fact that it bothers me, to be honest. I just dont understand why. you know? | 21:51 |
| VirusTB | Alan502, :p super speed internet(The Netherlands) | 21:51 |
| itilious | i hve smbfs installed as well | 21:51 |
| meowbuntu | ok i am now installing updates and get this maeeage. about weatjher i should keep current grub or update it. what should i do | 21:51 |

| duck_tape | anybody manage to get ubuntu to work with HP ILO kvm? | 21:51 |
| lzrdking | jayce: bad sector on the HD maybe? | 21:51 |
| Alan502 | VirusTB, :sigh: my internet is just the opposite; 50 kb/s download speed (Guatemala) :( | 21:52 |
| bobbyyu | Should I ask this question in #samba? | 21:52 |
| jayce | lzrdking - you think? Brand new laptops. Although possible, very unlikely. They imaged fine (they had XP on them previously) | 21:52 |
| VirusTB | Alan502, while I am running from a LIVE CD | 21:52 |
| jayce | too bad network manager sucks in gnome or else I could static IP it there | 21:52 |

| ddan | hdtdi, check that the file exists | 22:05 |

| iceroot | hdtdi: so check the path again | 22:05 |
| ddan | mNute101 try XFE for performance and light-weight | 22:05 |
| Alan502 | mNute101, its matter of preference, but gnome tends to be more stable and kde more good-looking | 22:05 |

| Bookman | iceroot, that does not tell me the type of ram | 22:07 |
| edbian | switch263: gnome is better written for your hardware. The gdm (gnome display manager) is probably to blame. KDE is the KDM (K display manager) | 22:07 |
| Callum | If ext4 is officially stable now, why does it happen? >_> | 22:07 |

| VirusTB1 | Alan502: does i format really fast?? ( i clicked th "format" buttin, but i see no actions going on ??) | 22:12 |
| jrib | hdtdi: it's not saying it can't find your file | 22:12 |
| ScoobyDoo | Is it possible to disable logging in to terminal as root? | 22:12 |
| Callum | Going to install 9.10 on it soon | 22:13 |
| Alan502 | VirusTB1, the live cd runs usually slow | 22:13 |
| jrib | ScoobyDoo: why? | 22:13 |
| hdtdi | jrib, yese but the file i s there.. you can see it with ls -la so why is this happening ? | 22:13 |
| Alan502 | VirusTB1, so wait a few more seconds, if not just continue; it is not NECESSARY to format | 22:13 |
| Callum | and I'm going to be going to school on Monday to leech my school's bandwidth updating the thing =P | 22:13 |
| Jamed | Callum: maybe it is specific to ext4 + your hd did you try other fs's on tis hd? | 22:13 |
| jrib | hdtdi: it's not saying it can't find your file. It reads the file fine | 22:13 |
| ScoobyDoo | jrib, I heard their was a virus that used root | 22:13 |
| jrib | hdtdi: that first "No such file or directory" is not related to your file | 22:13 |
| skx | I have attached another monitor to my ubuntu machine and it's all fine, but the cursor is moving faster sideways than up/down when the other monitor is on, I guess to compensate for added width... it's annoying, how do I make it move regularly? | 22:13 |
| Callum | Jamed: yeah...ext3, NTFS are the other filesystems I've known had no problems with it | 22:13 |
| jrib | hdtdi: if you play a different file, you'll probably see the same thing | 22:14 |
| VirusTB1 | Alan502: well i cant access the "make Start up disk" buttun? ( i cant click it, its not "active" :S | 22:14 |
| jrib | ScoobyDoo: that makes no sense... | 22:14 |
| hdtdi | jrib, no.. when i want to watch another file | 22:14 |
| Callum | One of the other HDs in my PC had ext4 in it and that also screwed...and that is a much younger drive too | 22:14 |
| hdtdi | everything is fine | 22:14 |
| jrib | hdtdi: pastebin | 22:14 |
| VirusTB1 | Alan502: BRB hold that thought | 22:14 |
| Jamed | Callum: _really_ wierd! anyway i have to go, bye. | 22:15 |
| Callum | Jamed: okay, bye =) | 22:15 |
| Alan502 | VirusTB1, have you already selected your ISO and your usb drive? | 22:15 |
| Callum | at the moment my system has one HD with Ubuntu on it so small /boot, a couple of GB of swap and the rest ext4, the other two HDs in my system are NTFS | 22:15 |
| Alan502 | VirusTB1, if you have, it might be formatting already | 22:15 |

| switch263 | VirusTBB, idk. i'm not a fan of rebooting personally so i'd be trying to make the one i was already using work | 22:25 |
| mNute101 | did you plug in the headphone? | 22:25 |
| lontra | hi i am trying to use virtualbox in ubuntu and font is all wacky. so i open up qt4-qtconfig set it to bitstream-vera, then relaunch virtualbox and it's all messed up again | 22:25 |
| ViridianFire | yes | 22:26 |
| Tiders | gwince, Nope it ownt | 22:26 |
| mNute101 | is the sound on? | 22:26 |
| lontra | it's very pixellated | 22:26 |
| ViridianFire | neither my headphones nor speakers work | 22:26 |
| ViridianFire | yes the sound is on | 22:26 |
| gwince | Tiders: Ok, I stand corrected. :) | 22:26 |
| switch263 | ViridianFire, you're probably muted | 22:26 |
| ViridianFire | no | 22:26 |
| mNute101 | are the speakers on? | 22:26 |
| ViridianFire | yes | 22:26 |
| Alan502 | VirusTBB, well i'll recommend restarting the application and NOT choosing formating this time | 22:26 |
| Tiders | gwince, Where can I get a non-opensource 64 bit version | 22:26 |
| switch263 | this ubuntu box has a habit of muting my speakers for no apparent reason | 22:26 |
| Alan502 | VirusTBB, formating is not necessary, althought recommended. But i have made installations without formatting. :) | 22:26 |
| Tiders | gwince, Nevermind got it | 22:26 |
| VirusTBB | Alan502: ok gonna reboot and run live cd again | 22:27 |
| Alan502 | VirusTBB, ok | 22:27 |
| ViridianFire | I had this problem before on my old laptop | 22:27 |
| VirusTBB | Alan502: what hsould the USb be formted to> FAT ?? | 22:27 |
| ViridianFire | I think it was a Pulse Audio issue | 22:27 |
| switch263 | no | 22:27 |
| switch263 | VirusTBB, FAT can't do > 2gb | 22:28 |
| lontra | what font do qt apps read in gnome? | 22:28 |
| lontra | err ... what file not font | 22:28 |
| VirusTBB | switch263: i got no 2GB i got a 4GB and a 8GB stick | 22:28 |
| Alan502 | VirusTBB, VFAT aka FAT32 | 22:28 |
| switch263 | yeah. FAT can't handle greater than 2gb | 22:28 |
| ViridianFire | where are the Pulse Audio settings so I can play around with those? | 22:28 |
| switch263 | VFAT, indeed. | 22:28 |
| VirusTBB | ok switch263 Alan502 BRB | 22:28 |

| r0k3tm3n | has anyone had success running multiple persistent linux installations of a flash drive? | 22:30 |
| boss_mc | r0k3tm3n: with a large enough flash drive, that's perfectly possible | 22:31 |
| r0k3tm3n | yeah, i realize that, but how is my question: split partitons? | 22:31 |
| Alan502 | r0k3tm3n, i wouldnt recommend that | 22:31 |
| boss_mc | r0k3tm3n: I've had a persistant ubuntu and a liveUSB on one pen at once | 22:31 |
| r0k3tm3n | what problems did u run into? | 22:32 |
| boss_mc | Alan502: why not? It's just like a normal HD... | 22:32 |
| r0k3tm3n | i am running 4 iso images of one flash right now, no problems... | 22:32 |
| Alan502 | boss_mc, you are exposed to easily loose your installations by loosing your pendrive | 22:33 |
| steev | so, i just did a fresh install of openssh-server - and sshd wouldn't start - i tracked it down to /sbin/start-stop-daemon being a script... and the actual start-stop-daemon being called start-stop-daemon.REAL - anyone know what would cause that? (and how the heck do i get which package installed a file, I thought it was dpkg -S filename but that just tells me where its installed to | 22:33 |
| steev | sorry - fresh install of Karmic | 22:33 |
| r0k3tm3n | Alan502: rlly? thats all? no software problems? | 22:33 |
| Ripp_ | I have a service which I'm trying to start with update-rc.d...is there any way to specify the user under which the service starts? | 22:34 |
| Alan502 | boss_mc, and some pendrives have a formatting limit | 22:34 |
| VirusTBB | Alan502: back | 22:34 |
| boss_mc | Alan502: True, but you'd never use it for your real install, just for testing (surely) | 22:34 |
| Alan502 | r0k3tm3n, no which i am concerned | 22:34 |
| r0k3tm3n | Boss_MC: of course!!! | 22:34 |
| VirusTBB | Alan502: ok , US START UP.... | 22:34 |
| VirusTBB | Alan502: selec iso (nerboot remix) and select 4GB USB | 22:35 |
| Alan502 | VirusTBB, be disposed to be patient if you decide to format your drive | 22:35 |
| r0k3tm3n | Alan502: ok, thnx. have you booted a persistent image from a *iso? | 22:35 |
| xopah | PLEASE I NEED HELP! - My Friends WLAN worked but not mine! - Why? and How Do I fix it? - http://pastebin.com/m584e9225 | 22:36 |
| VirusTBB | Alan502: not gonna format, its almost 12:am here, i got to go to school | 22:36 |
| boss_mc | r0k3tm3n: you can convince the installer that the usb is a HD, install a grub on the drive and install multiple OSs into seperate partitions (remember, to get >4 you'll need extended partitions) | 22:36 |
| Alan502 | r0k3tm3n, nope, im not too much a linux expert! | 22:36 |
| Alan502 | VirusTBB, ok just click next then | 22:37 |

| Alan502 | VirusTBB, lol! you NEED to format apparently. The device might not be in the correct format. Well, formatting OR changing to a drive formated in vfat seem to be the only options. | 22:43 |
| boss_mc | Matson: I don't know what final cut can do, but those all do video editing (think virtualdub mod) | 22:43 |
| xopah | Epinky - Thank's For helping me! - It's copied from Syslog in System log viewer... | 22:43 |

| meowbuntu | i also cant play music files properly | 22:46 |
| ActionParsnip | meowbuntu: you can remove the new plus deps then install the old if you can find the deb. You will most likely screw your system up REALLY badly so I do NOT advise this | 22:46 |
| Alan502 | VirusTBB, i dont remember seeing one the last time i used the utility | 22:46 |
| chasedawg1 | How do i set up scanning? | 22:46 |
| xopah | epinky: I would say it is the standard "auto lo" linebreak "iface lo inet loopback" | 22:46 |
| VirusTBB | Alan502: aproxx how long does it take? (and does it do a full format? or a quick format/) | 22:46 |
| ActionParsnip | chasedawg1: try xsane | 22:47 |
| xopah | epinky - I read the file didnt want to past such short thing on pastebin.. | 22:47 |
| chasedawg1 | actionparsnip: I tried xsane, but it says no scanners found | 22:47 |
| Alan502 | VirusTBB, im not sure if it does a quick or full format; and the speed depends on both the machine and the drive | 22:48 |
| epinky | xopah: then post /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf | 22:48 |
| ActionParsnip | chasedawg1: then run: lsusb there will be an 8 character hex ID code which will identify the device, you can then websearch for that to find guides | 22:48 |

| epinky | xopah: yes | 22:56 |
| epinky | xopah: change with your appropiate parameters | 22:56 |
| xopah | epinky: done | 22:57 |

| xopah | epinky: all parameters within " " signs where it was before.. | 22:57 |
| xopah | epinky: also done | 22:57 |
| Alan502 | VirusTBB, Grub will also work with your pendrive :) | 22:58 |
| Snausages | silverfox: a reboot should cure that | 22:58 |
| [SilverFox] | reboot what a POS | 22:58 |
| epinky | xopah: ok, now run: sudo wpa_supplicant -Dwext -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -dd | 22:58 |
| [SilverFox] | this like windows but worse lol | 22:58 |
| VirusTBB | nute: tinyurl.com | 22:58 |
| ActionParsnip | [SilverFox]: it does fix some stuff suprisingly | 22:58 |
| nute | Wow this is so frustrating. | 22:58 |
| Snausages | silverfox: faster than hanging out in chat rooms | 22:58 |
| bllz | How can I access Ubuntu's virtual desktop server from a windows machine? I have tightvnc installed client-side, but i'm not sure how to use it | 22:59 |
| ActionParsnip | nute: then the link is bad | 22:59 |
| nute | It's like whenever I try something in ubuntu, I will always get either an error or a huge problem | 22:59 |
| nute | ActionParsnip, I tried two links already | 22:59 |
| ActionParsnip | bllz: the server name is the host name of the system you want to connect to, you will need to be on the same LAN | 22:59 |
| ActionParsnip | bllz: you will need to enable the remote access stuff on the server side | 23:00 |
| Alan502 | VirusTBB, LOL sorry i dont know where the heck was my mind | 23:00 |
| bllz | ActionParsnip: ok i'm on the same LAN, but when I type in the hostname, it fails to connect... | 23:00 |
| Alan502 | VirusTBB, it is not GRUB it is GPARTED | 23:00 |
| ActionParsnip | nute: you can use woof to host the file | 23:00 |
| === superserver is now known as kaos | ||
| bllz | ActionParsnip: i thought that was preconfigured in mythbuntu... | 23:00 |
| bllz | maybe not | 23:00 |
| [SilverFox] | how do I even reset I can't see my shutdown buttons | 23:00 |
| kaos | hola | 23:00 |
| bllz | that would explain a lot | 23:00 |
| Alan502 | VIrD= | 23:00 |
| ActionParsnip | bllz: did you enable the service? | 23:00 |
| bllz | ActionParnsip: i think so, at installation | 23:00 |
| nute | I'm so lost | 23:00 |
| bllz | is there a way to do it at the command line? | 23:00 |
| ActionParsnip | [SilverFox]: sudo shutdown -r now will do it | 23:00 |
| Alan502 | VirusTBB, try Alt+F2 and type "gparted" then press enter | 23:01 |
| datta1 | please someone help me with the problem of dependency | 23:01 |
| ActionParsnip | bllz: not sure, i dont use VNC. I think its vulgar | 23:01 |
| [SilverFox] | how I bring up ssh? | 23:01 |
| xopah | epinky: it does not loog well.. :/ - pasting to pastebin - the interface name is eth2 ? | 23:01 |
| bllz | ActionParsnip: I'm with you, unfortunately it's the only easy way to configure a lot of myth backend stuff =/ | 23:01 |
| ActionParsnip | [SilverFox]: sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start | 23:01 |
| VirusTBB | Alan502: i know gparted.. | 23:01 |
| VirusTBB | Alan502: i used it to partition my desktop | 23:02 |
| [SilverFox] | grrr I mean to reset :P I can't use the commands if I can't see the window ;) | 23:02 |
| bllz | [silverfox]: ssh hostname | 23:02 |
| bllz | in the terminal | 23:02 |
| xopah | epinky: http://pastebin.com/m676df7e9 | 23:02 |
| [SilverFox] | short cut to terminal please | 23:02 |
| Alan502 | VirusTBB, then use gparted to format your pendrive | 23:02 |
| epinky | xopah: ok, then just sudo wpa_supplicant -Dwext -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -d , one d just need the last part, then stop it | 23:02 |
| bllz | [silverfox]: oh you meant start the service, sorry | 23:02 |
| michaeyk | how do I add print server to koala server? | 23:02 |
| Alan502 | VirusTBB, then try to run the USB startup disk creator utility again | 23:02 |
| losha | ActionParsnip: vuigar? | 23:02 |
| datta1 | again I get message to fix the problem thought these http://yfrog.com/j868311024p and there is a red icon at the top of my window | 23:02 |
| VirusTBB | Alan502: ok, this is a lot of work *sigh | 23:03 |
| [SilverFox] | yeah right now I can't open anything in programs since I can only see the bottom right screen | 23:03 |
| ActionParsnip | [SilverFox]: then you wil need to physically attend the system to restart the service, the sudo shutdown -r now command will make the system reboot | 23:03 |
| ActionParsnip | losha: just so ungraceful and clunky | 23:03 |
| epinky | xopah: post "sudo ifconfig -a" | 23:03 |
| losha | ActionParsnip: oh, right. So what do you use instead? | 23:03 |
| Arimoto | I just did a fresh 9.10 install and when I try to install ncurses-devel I get " | 23:03 |
| ActionParsnip | losha: a lot of apps have web interfaces or you can use ssh to configure at command line, much slicker | 23:04 |
| Arimoto | ... I get "Couldn't find package: ncurses-devel" | 23:04 |
| xopah | epinky: ifconfig -a -> http://pastebin.com/m266704ed | 23:04 |

| losha | Arimoto: ncurses-dev, not -devel... | 23:05 |
| Alan502 | VirusTBB, not really | 23:05 |
| datta1 | please someone help me with the dependency problem, anyone these dependency problems help me badly | 23:05 |
| ActionParsnip | losha: most torrent clients have web interfaces for example | 23:05 |
| epinky | xopah: then your wireless is eth2, right? | 23:05 |
| michaeyk | ubuttu: i just need the command to get to the last screen of the install where i had a chance to check it... i forgot | 23:05 |
| Alan502 | VirusTBB, just select gparted from the system menu | 23:05 |
| Alan502 | VirusTBB, you dont have to boot from gparted live cd... | 23:06 |
| bllz | I have a seagate SATA drive that has AAM (acoustic management) disabled by firmware. This means that the hdparm -M 128 /dev/sda command doesn't work. Is there a way to force AAM on? the drive is very loud... =/ | 23:06 |
| losha | ActionParsnip: actually, I use vnc with rtorrent :-) | 23:06 |
| ActionParsnip | datta1: ok give a pastebin of: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade | 23:06 |
| pocho | buenas buenas | 23:06 |
| ActionParsnip | losha: rtorrent has a webinterface | 23:06 |
| xopah | epinky: yes eth2 should be my wirelsess - with only one "d" -> http://pastebin.com/m15721709 | 23:06 |
| Arimoto | losha: thanks and actually I just noticed the error message tells says I need to install "ncurses-devel" ... but it should be ncurses-dev. I'm installing it now. :-) | 23:06 |
| VirusTBB | ActionParsnip: rtorrent? | 23:06 |
| epinky | xopah: sudo wpa_supplicant -Dwext -ieth2 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -d | 23:06 |
| ActionParsnip | losha: it will run way faster and use less network bandwidth than VNC | 23:06 |

| michaeyk | does anyone remember what that command is? | 23:07 |
| syn-ack | what command? | 23:07 |
| RaJiL | not found xorg.conf in /etc/X11 | 23:08 |
| TerrorInK | lol | 23:08 |
| TerrorInK | are u using a nvidia driver rajil | 23:08 |
| losha | ActionParsnip: downloading it now, thx... | 23:08 |
| michaeyk | the one brings up the last screen of the install for the server edition, where you can pick the kinds of servers to run | 23:08 |
| RaJiL | Ati driver.. | 23:08 |
| ActionParsnip | RaJiL: karmic (annoyingly) doesnt have an xorg.conf file | 23:08 |
| Billiard | ActionParsnip: you can still use one | 23:09 |
| Thunder_Drop | I copied my ubuntu install from one drive to another and can't figure out how to install grub on the new hard drive. How can I go about installing grub on the new hard drive and configuring the mount points for the install as the partitions are now in different orders | 23:09 |
| ActionParsnip | Billiard: oh i know, I have to | 23:09 |
| RaJiL | if i want configure X? | 23:09 |
| datta1 | ActionParsnip: this is the result http://paste.ubuntu.com/338995/ | 23:09 |
| syn-ack | michaeyk, dselect? | 23:09 |

| xopah | epinky: This is the output I got: http://pastebin.com/m141ed0fe | 23:09 |
| boss_mc | Thunder_Drop: 1) grub-install /dev/sd? 2) /etc/fstab | 23:09 |
| Billiard | Thunder_Drop: i would use a live cd, chroot into your / and run grub-install | 23:09 |
| michaeyk | syn-ack: thanks! I don't know why that's so hard for me to remember | 23:09 |
| syn-ack | michaeyk, the second is probably the one you want. :P | 23:10 |
| jMyles | Oh man. OK, this is potentially the cause of a life crisis. Is there a way to recover files deleted when the files are "too big for the trash?" | 23:10 |
| ActionParsnip | RaJiL: if you can find a skeleton file online or find a way to generate one you can go from there | 23:10 |
| michaeyk | syn-ack: thanks again! | 23:10 |
| embrik | how do i get my workstations to upgrade each friday night - I can't find any options for apt-get update; apt-get upgrade to do it automatically without me answvering yes or Y | 23:10 |
| syn-ack | np | 23:10 |
| datta1 | ActionParsnip I am not willing an upgrade to 9.10 but if that is necessary then I would have to do that | 23:10 |
| Matson | boss_mc: thanks | 23:11 |
| ActionParsnip | datta1: no, sudo apt-get upgrade only upgrades the current packages in the current release | 23:11 |

| tomvolek | HI all, I have mounted a partition on Ubuntu 9.1 and use it as my data parition. permissions are owner root and group plugdev 770 , as a result regular users can not save files there, why cant change permission on certain directiry here ? | 23:12 |
| michaeyk | wake69: you need to be a bit more specific | 23:12 |
| Billiard | tomvolek: what type of partition | 23:12 |
| tomvolek | fat 3 | 23:13 |

| tomvolek | Billiard i wanted to make it accessible by both windows and Ubuntu | 23:13 |
| Billiard | tomvolek: fat32 does not have permissions, you will have to specify permissions when you mount it | 23:13 |
| ActionParsnip | datta1: sudo apt-get -f install | 23:13 |
| wake69 | flithm : Thanks, I did that but I still cannot get it to work | 23:13 |

| JoeSomebody | can someone help me out with GKrellM, it says no sensors detected, any way to make it like my mobo? it's an asus p5gd1-vm , is it a matter of finding drivers? | 23:14 |
| epinky | xopah: if you can see them maybe it's a driver problem: "sudo lspci | grep -i net" | 23:14 |
| ctmjr | jMyles: if you have not logged or rebooted you should be able to recover them | 23:14 |
| VirusTBB | Alan502: im going to sleep will deal with the netbook in the weekend | 23:15 |

| michaeyk | siverfox: did you try top? | 23:18 |
| ActionParsnip | Phuzion: How did you install java? | 23:18 |
| [SilverFox] | top was fine | 23:18 |
| [SilverFox] | I have a q6600 heh 4gigs of ram | 23:19 |
| xopah | epinky: humm last time when I installed fw_cutter (the one in synaptic installer) I could not scan SSIDs anymore... | 23:19 |
| Satzo | jMyles, you will backup more frequently now i assume? ;) | 23:19 |
| Phuzion | * sudo apt-get | 23:19 |
| [SilverFox] | windows feel slugish | 23:19 |
| JoeSomebody | ActionParsnip, found none, should i do sensors-detect? | 23:19 |
| jMyles | Satzo: It's just so much to back up.... Dozens of gigs... | 23:19 |
| ActionParsnip | JoeSomebody: worth a try | 23:19 |
| [SilverFox] | should I be install video drivers from ati site or the way it install auto on ubuntu | 23:20 |
| Satzo | jMyles, there are 2 types of hard drives on the market. those that crash and those that crash a little later on........ | 23:20 |
| ctmjr | jMyles: ouch! there is also an app called photorecover that can recover most of the files have not used it in awhile so am not to familiar with it | 23:20 |
| ActionParsnip | Phuzion: could try the package from www.java.com Ive never used the apt-get method | 23:20 |
| Phuzion | Actionparsnip.... sudo apt-get... in fact I think you helped me with it the other day? had like 4 different ones conflicting on the system | 23:20 |
| Thocrun | hey Silver Fox | 23:21 |
| [SilverFox] | hey | 23:21 |
| datta1 | ActionParsnip it just gave me the fuctions of apt-get, nothing else | 23:21 |
| Thocrun | I just installed ubuntu 9.10!! wohoo!!! | 23:21 |
| [SilverFox] | nice hehe | 23:22 |
| ActionParsnip | datta1: sudo apt-get -f install copy the command and paste to the terminal | 23:22 |
| Thocrun | I think I should probably try to get A+ certified. (esentials) | 23:23 |
| xopah | epinky: I have installed b43_cutter before and it made my scanning not work. --> made it impossible to connect to any network | 23:23 |
| datta1 | ActionParsnip: should I install this? http://paste.ubuntu.com/339005/ | 23:23 |

| meowbuntu | i need a dictionary for openoffinc how i get one | 23:24 |
| JoeSomebody | ActionParsnip, says no to intel core family thermal sensor, meaning i am sol? | 23:24 |
| meowbuntu | no it does not. i have spelling mistakes that are not being picked up | 23:24 |
| datta1 | meowbuntu: try Writer's tools extension | 23:24 |
| ActionParsnip | JoeSomebody: not sure, i dont use intel nor sensors | 23:24 |
| ActionParsnip | datta1: should make things square again | 23:25 |
| losha | jMyles: actually, I'm not very sympathetic. You can fit 4G on a blank dvd and they cost just pennies. Or buy a removable disk and do backups to it. Understand that *eventually*, you will need it.... | 23:25 |
| syn-ack | JoeSomebody, What are you trying to do now? I may be of some help | 23:25 |
| datta1 | ActionParsnip: all right then going with removing the facebook chat plugin | 23:26 |
| JoeSomebody | hmm thanks anyway, anyone else know? i am about to upgrade my processor, i want to know cpu temperature somehow | 23:26 |
| losha | ctmjr: cool lsof link. btw... | 23:26 |
| JoeSomebody | i am about to change a 2.66 to a 3.2 , prob will be hotter | 23:26 |
| syn-ack | JoeSomebody, well sensor temps are reported in /proc for one, are you trying to install something more realtime? | 23:27 |
| datta1 | ActionParsnip: another error http://paste.ubuntu.com/339008/ | 23:27 |
| jMyles | losha: Thank you. That's what I was hoping to hear in this time of crisis. Please lecture me about the ease of backup later. | 23:27 |
| datta1 | the errors are killing me | 23:27 |
| ActionParsnip | JoeSomebody: if you buy with a cooler, it will be suitable (just) for the chip. | 23:27 |
| ActionParsnip | JoeSomebody: buyh a decent cooler and you dont have to even worry | 23:27 |
| JoeSomebody | syn-ack, i was going for real-time, but any way is better than none | 23:27 |
| epinky | xopah: dumb question, your propietary drivers are enabled? | 23:27 |
| ActionParsnip | datta1: thats fine | 23:27 |
| losha | jMyles: yeah, ok... | 23:28 |
| konsumer | Hi | 23:28 |
| ctmjr | losha: comes in handy now and then | 23:28 |
| ActionParsnip | datta1: its only a warning | 23:28 |
| JoeSomebody | got intel coppoer core cooler, will get a better one, not before xmas tho | 23:28 |
| syn-ack | And CPU temps arent necessarily going to be hotter with a cpu with a higher clock count. JoeSomebody hold on a sec | 23:28 |
| datta1 | ActionParsnip all right, then that is why the red mark (package could not be found or something) icon is gone, thanks | 23:28 |
| ActionParsnip | JoeSomebody: then dont worry about sensors ;) | 23:28 |
| konsumer | I skipped the "Configuring apt" part of the latest Ubuntu 9.10 install because it was stuck for like 2 hours. How do i configure it after the install? | 23:28 |
| embrik | Billiard: Hi, been away. Have tried -y --force-yes. But still I sometimes have to press enter or q to continue | 23:29 |
| losha | JoeSomebody: I thought all intel processors had thermal protection built into the chip, so the worst that's supposed to happen is your chip will auto-shutdown until it cools off. I once had a cpu heatsink fall off during operation.... | 23:29 |
| syn-ack | JoeSomebody, install sensord and you can use a front end like something out of screenlets | 23:29 |
| JoeSomebody | i believe you are right, but i don't want it to shut down :) | 23:29 |
| syn-ack | losha, that doesnt always work. | 23:29 |
| xopah | epinky: heh, it is not a dumb question! But it is activated and in use... checked it now | 23:30 |

| konsumer | anyone here with a helpful hand? | 23:30 |
| konsumer | to my question up there ^ | 23:30 |
| gnuyen | i have grub 1 on a drive, how do i install grub 2 on it? | 23:30 |
| ActionParsnip | WAMozart: you can use partimage ina live CD, you will need a destination partition to spit the image to | 23:30 |
| Billiard | konsumer: dpkg-reconfigure apt maybe | 23:31 |
| konsumer | I'll ask again in a few minutes. | 23:31 |
| ActionParsnip | konsumer: sudo apt-get update maybe | 23:31 |
| gnuyen | i upgraded from an old version of ubuntu and it didn't change my grub | 23:31 |
| JoeSomebody | syn-ack, should i remove lm-sensors and gkrellm ( they are not helping anyway) | 23:31 |
| konsumer | ActionParsnip: Thanks m8 :) | 23:31 |
| Billiard | gnuyen: it wont | 23:31 |
| losha | syn-ack: well, I'm not surprised to hear that. I wonder if intel would replace it under warranty if you cook it? | 23:31 |
| syn-ack | JoeSomebody, Does your current motherboard not have sensors? | 23:31 |
| ActionParsnip | konsumer: or: sudo dpkg-reconfigure apt-get | 23:31 |
| konsumer | kool, thanks :) | 23:31 |
| gnuyen | but now i need to reinstall grub, but the boot disk only has the new grub | 23:31 |
| ActionParsnip | konsumer: or: sudo dpkg-reconfigure apt not apt-get | 23:32 |
| syn-ack | JoeSomebody, Your motherboard has to support sensors and if lm sensors isnt picking it up, sensord wont either | 23:32 |
| WAMozart | ActionParsnip: Thanks, I was looking for something to use with my ubuntu up and running like drive image....you know I am scared of self launching software... | 23:32 |
| JoeSomebody | it does i believe, works in xp/speedfan | 23:32 |
| konsumer | what is 'apt' for? | 23:32 |
| ActionParsnip | !grub2 | gnuyen | 23:32 |
| ubottu | gnuyen: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 23:32 |
| gnuyen | i'd be fine w/ installing the new grub, but it wont install because it thinks files are missing from the grub instal | 23:32 |
| losha | !backup | WAMozart (see if there's anything here) | 23:32 |
| ubottu | WAMozart (see if there's anything here): There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning | 23:32 |
| syn-ack | losha, probably not | 23:32 |
| JoeSomebody | asus p5gd1-vm | 23:32 |
| WAMozart | something more similar to gparted...you know? | 23:32 |
| konsumer | !apt | 23:32 |
| ubottu | APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome), !Adept (KDE) or !KPackageKit (KDE) | 23:32 |
| konsumer | Oh, that worked. lol. | 23:33 |
| syn-ack | JoeSomebody, I have no idea just based off that, I don't build systems anymore so I'm not up on that sort of thing | 23:33 |
| ActionParsnip | konsumer: cool | 23:33 |
| JoeSomebody | i wonder if asus pcprobe has a linux version | 23:33 |
| losha | WAMozart: isn't there a ghost clone? Disclaimer: I've never used this: http://linux.softpedia.com/get/System/Hardware/Ghost-for-Linux-053.shtml | 23:33 |
| konsumer | ActionParsnip: Thanks for your help m8. Really appreciate it :) | 23:33 |
| WAMozart | Thanx for the link, anyway i don't need to backup my sistem, I want to backup an HDD I have on a medical machine that runs windows xp...but i wanna disconnect the HDD and use ubuntu (which i trust more) and mirror image the drive on another one. | 23:33 |
| syn-ack | JoeSomebody, did you run sensor-detect ? | 23:34 |
| WAMozart | losha: thanx I'm giving a look at it | 23:34 |
| Alan502 | Where should the JDK go on linux? i installed it but it just decompressed a folder in the same directory of my installer :S | 23:34 |
| syn-ack | JoeSomebody, lm sensors arent going to automatically see them, you have to have it probe for your sensors | 23:34 |
| JoeSomebody | syn-ack, yes, it said no in the intel at the end | 23:34 |
| syn-ack | JoeSomebody, weird | 23:34 |
| JoeSomebody | says no to intel core family thermal sensor, meaning i am sol? | 23:35 |
| gnuyen | can i use the livecd to boot my system which grub isn't working on? | 23:35 |
| syn-ack | JoeSomebody, no... | 23:35 |
| Billiard | Alan502: isnt jdk in the repos? | 23:35 |
| kas1 | hi, i'm bran new | 23:35 |
| Alan502 | Billiard, i think it is, but i downloaded the *.bin from the official webpage | 23:35 |
| losha | JoeSomebody: is it one of these? http://lists.lm-sensors.org/pipermail/lm-sensors/2006-April/015828.html | 23:36 |
| kas1 | anyone know anything about the pulseaudio bug with ICE1712 based cards? | 23:36 |
| Billiard | Alan502: i would use the one from the package manager | 23:36 |
| SJr|nx | Is there any reason why I can't install Ubuntu on a Mac OS X Server machine? | 23:36 |
| Billiard | SJr|nx: cant? | 23:36 |
| losha | kas1: I removed pulseaudio: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/fix-for-all-pulseaudio-related-issues.html | 23:36 |
| IpSe_DiXiT | how can i watch youtube (that means using flashplayer) on an ubuntu-live version? can I? | 23:37 |
| Billiard | IpSe_DiXiT: install flashplugin-nonfree | 23:37 |
| kas1 | losha: what sound server do you run? | 23:37 |
| IpSe_DiXiT | Billiard: can I on the Live-CD ? while im using it? | 23:37 |
| losha | kas1: apparently esound.... | 23:38 |
| Billiard | IpSe_DiXiT: yes, it will install it in ram | 23:38 |
| syn-ack | JoeSomebody, I think losha hit the nail on the head with that one. | 23:38 |
| kas1 | sweet thanks for the link | 23:38 |
| losha | IpSe_DiXiT: you may run out of ram but otherwise it *should* work... | 23:38 |
| syn-ack | SJr|nx, you should be able to, I don't see why not | 23:38 |
| Alan502 | Billiard, it takes a while to download for me, is there a jdk channel? | 23:38 |
| kas1 | my Jack server works fine!! | 23:38 |
| IpSe_DiXiT | http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=flashplugin-nonfree is this ok? or should i install it from bash? | 23:39 |

| losha | IpSe_DiXiT: can't you just apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree ? | 23:39 |
| Billiard | Alan502: idk, try a different mirror | 23:39 |
| preecher | i cinfig'd vpn server on my office machine(windows only) and i am trying to get vpn client to working on my ubuntu only laptop but cant get it to connect-any suggestions | 23:40 |
| JoeSomebody | oh no, i am not spending a week to get sensors | 23:40 |
| JoeSomebody | i'll take my chances | 23:40 |
| Billiard | IpSe_DiXiT: just use the package manager, you dont need to manually download packages | 23:40 |
| bllz | I need to add the multiverse repos for 9.10 on an installation I just updated. They're not shown in software sources. what's the line I need to enter into software sources for multiverse 9.10 x64? | 23:40 |
| Guest29568 | Should I upgrade Ubuntu to 9.10? or do you recommend to wait for bug fixing? | 23:40 |
| Billiard | Guest29568: you could try the live cd and see if everything works well for you still | 23:41 |
| Guest29568 | did you upgraded yourself? | 23:41 |

| Zy | cannot compile xfoil 6.97 on karmic.. help please.. | 23:41 |
| losha | bllz: google for 'karmic: the perfect desktop'. It's all in there.... | 23:42 |
| xopah | epinky: Thank you very much for your help, I know a lot more now than I did just a few minutes ago. Thank you! | 23:42 |
| epinky | xopah: yes, you can go ndiswrapper | 23:42 |
| JoeSomebody | syn-ack, losha looks a little deep for a linux newbie, but maybe i'll try, thanks guys | 23:43 |
| xopah | epinky: But I guess that is not the optimal way to go.. :) - Will everything work "as normal" that way? | 23:43 |
| ActionParsnip | bllz: if you use software sources you can add the repos you wish | 23:43 |
| JoeSomebody | sounds dangerous for a newbie to do | 23:43 |
| bllz | ActionParsnip: right, but it's not in the software sources | 23:43 |
| preecher | i cinfig'd vpn server on my office machine(windows only) and i am trying to get vpn client to working on my ubuntu only laptop but cant get it to connect-any suggestions | 23:43 |

| Thunder_Drop | I'm now booted into a live cd and am trying to install grub on my new hard drive as I have copied some partitions over. I succesfully run sudo grub-install --root-directory=... /dev/sda but when I boot into the hard drive I get "grub loading" and then nothing... What am I doing wrong? | 23:43 |
| epinky | xopah: yes, through windows drivers, in addition you can try this also: http://pastebin.com/m3e10c943 | 23:44 |
| epinky | xopah: but you'll need b43-fwcutter | 23:45 |
| losha | Thunder_Drop: the uuids will have changed. Have you checked /boot/grub/menu.lst and /etc/fstab for out-of-date uuids? | 23:45 |
| pnut_ | whois pnut | 23:45 |
| losha | bllz: might be easier to just hand edit /etc/apt/sources.list .... | 23:46 |
| Thunder_Drop | losha: so I should edit those files on my new root partition so that grub-install puts the right information up? | 23:46 |
| preecher | is there another way of connecting to my office machine (windows) from my laptop when i am at home other than thru vpn? | 23:47 |
| losha | Thunder_Drop: yes. If you copied those files from the old partition, the uuids in them will point to old partitions, if you see what I mean.... | 23:47 |
| fdsa_ | has anyone tried making a custom linux live cd with nvidia drivers pre-installed? | 23:48 |
| losha | preecher: it depends entirely on what your workplace IT people provide. The usual alternative to vpn for linux boxes is ssh.... | 23:48 |
| preecher | i dont have a workplace IT dept--i own a small hotel and want to be able to look at my security cameras when away from the office | 23:49 |
| xopah | epinky: allright! Thank you very much! I think I have to try this at a later time... :( - its almost 02.00 am here where I am and I got to go up quite early.. I will save that page and try that to. Is there any way I could give you some feedback at a later time? | 23:49 |
| epinky | xopah: you're welcome and good luck :) | 23:50 |
| Billiard | fdsa_: im not 100% positive if it would work, but i would extract and chroot into the squashfs on the live cd, install the drivers, then make it a squashfs again and replace it on the iso, there might be a tool to make a custom live cd | 23:51 |
| losha | preecher: oh. I guess that makes *you* the workplace IT department. Might have better luck on #windows... | 23:52 |
| trism | fdsa_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization | 23:52 |

| fdsa_ | trism, i have been doing this alot but worked until i started adding the nvidia driver | 23:52 |
| preecher | all my laptops are ubuntu - only reason the windows machine is it was what came with the security system | 23:53 |
| fdsa_ | i thought when you installed nvidia drivers it does something to the kernel right? | 23:53 |
| losha | preecher: so what do you use to connect to the windows server from your ubuntu laptop when you're at work? | 23:54 |
