| meowbuntu | anyone know openoffice how to set nz english dictionary to be default it always comes up with usa when i spell check. | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| meowbuntu | ^ i have set to NZ english in settings but dictionary is not y | 00:01 |
| preecher | if i do the port forwarding thing can i be able to log in from anywhere? | 00:01 |
| TwoD | Why would Gedit suddenly hide all my .inc and .module files? I've got no filters on... | 00:01 |
| Bridge| | anyone know in vi is there a way to completely clear the line ur on and make it show it extracts that line as well(1 less line in document)?? | 00:01 |
| abo | dd | 00:02 |
| Seveas | preecher, yes | 00:02 |
| abo | Bridgel, type dd | 00:02 |
| Bridge| | ok i'll try | 00:02 |
| trism | fdsa_: unfortunately, from my quick searches, it appears that it won't be easy to add nvidia drivers to the live cd, because even if you do, ubuntu casper will disable them on boot (it apparently does this with ati too) | 00:02 |
| preecher | is that something i set up on both ends? | 00:02 |
| Seveas | Bridge|, ^D will delete contents, dd will delete the line | 00:02 |
| Billiard | preecher: you might have to port forward twice with your dsl, id forward all the ports from the dsl to the router, then forward what you need from the router to your computer | 00:02 |
| Bridge| | THanks ssooooosssssooo much | 00:03 |
| Bridge| | dd is exactly what i needed | 00:03 |
| Bridge| | lol | 00:03 |
| fdsa_ | trism, im glad someone else has come to that conclusion | 00:03 |
| Seveas | Bridge|, also: #vim :-) | 00:03 |
| Billiard | preecher: only one end needs port forwarding | 00:03 |
| bllz | !boxee | 00:03 |
| fdsa_ | trism, would this be just an ubuntu or a debian issue as well? | 00:03 |
| bllz | is there a support channel for boxee on ubuntu? | 00:03 |
| ActionParsnip | preecher: you just need to set it up on the router and you can connect from ANYWHERE | 00:03 |
| Seveas | bllz, tried #boxee? | 00:03 |
| preecher | so log into my router settings? | 00:04 |
| abo | #boxee | 00:04 |
| bllz | Seveas: no actually. i tried ubuntu-boxee, but that is a good idea =) | 00:04 |
| ActionParsnip | preecher: use an SSH tunnel if you are connecting over WAN as there is no security in VNC connections | 00:04 |
| abo | \j #boxee | 00:04 |
| ActionParsnip | preecher: yes, you need to configure virtual server or port forwarding | 00:04 |

| |COM|Styx | argh, this is weird. the channel isn't responding much for me | 00:06 |
| preecher | ok lemme see what i can do | 00:07 |
| SJr|nx | syn-ack what about the fact that it doesn't have a BIOS and has that EFI crap | 00:07 |
| |COM|Styx | anyway, does anyone know if i can make apt mark a package as installed? | 00:07 |
| Seveas | blackman, find . -name -not excludedfile -print0 | xargs -0 echo chgrp username | 00:08 |
| abo | hi, is there a way to check what bios I have from within ubuntu? | 00:08 |
| preecher | port forwarding/port triggering | 00:08 |
| |COM|Styx | i want to update the glib package, but the standard ubuntu package is horribly out of date | 00:08 |
| ardchoille | |COM|Styx: did you install it from source? | 00:08 |
| Seveas | drop the 'echo' once you confermed it does what you want :) | 00:08 |
| ActionParsnip | |COM|Styx: find a ppa | 00:08 |
| Seveas | abo, sudo dmidecode | 00:08 |
| MynameisHame | how do chaps, could someone gibe me a hand with folder permissions :3 | 00:08 |
| |COM|Styx | ppa? | 00:08 |
| ActionParsnip | !ppa | 00:08 |
| ubottu | With Launchpad's Personal Package Archives (PPA), you can build and publish binary Ubuntu packages for multiple architectures simply by uploading an Ubuntu source package to Launchpad. See https://help.launchpad.net/PPAQuickStart. | 00:08 |
| |COM|Styx | aah, thank you | 00:08 |
| ActionParsnip | |COM|Styx: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas | 00:08 |
| ActionParsnip | |COM|Styx: you can use that link to search the launcpad ppas | 00:09 |
| ardchoille | |COM|Styx: if you've installed it from ppa and you have the ppa in your sources, then it should be seen as installed if you installed it from the ppa | 00:09 |
| abo | Seveas, thanks a lot, a lot of info here.. | 00:09 |
| |COM|Styx | >.> | 00:09 |
| Zy | cannot compile xfoil 6.97 on karmic.. help please.. | 00:09 |
| |COM|Styx | is there a better way then ppas? that seems like more than what i need | 00:10 |
| |COM|Styx | i just want a recent version of glib | 00:10 |
| Seveas | |COM|Styx, why? | 00:10 |
| Dictator | hi, quick question... i just got a usb dvd drive but can't find it to add to this command sudo growisofs -use-the-force-luke=dao -use-the-force-luke=break:1913760 -dvd-compat -speed=4 -Z ??????????=deadrising.iso | 00:10 |
| syn-ack | SJr|nx, I run a system with EFI just fine | 00:10 |
| Seveas | Ubuntu's glib is the most recent one | 00:10 |
| SJr|nx | Ah | 00:10 |
| ActionParsnip | |COM|Styx: then if someone has compiled it you can also use it | 00:10 |
| Dictator | how can i find the usb dvd drive? is it in /dev or /media | 00:10 |
| Seveas | and updating glib often means updating quite a few other things as well, better upgrade your ubuntu in that case | 00:11 |
| |COM|Styx | i have upgraded | 00:11 |
| abo | is there a way to upgrade the bios from within ubuntu? | 00:11 |
| fdsa_ | anyone know of a good livecd resource (aside from the ubuntu wiki) | 00:11 |
| |COM|Styx | i have compiled the latest glib | 00:11 |
| TcP | anyone knows how to get virtual box to go fullscreen the guest pc is windows 7 | 00:11 |
| Seveas | Dictator, the device node (what the kernel talks to) lives in /dev, the mount point (where your files appear) lives in /media, usually /media/dvd | 00:11 |
| preecher | ActionParsnip, its asking me thing like what kind of service and gives choices like quake,age of empire, ftp,http and stuff like that | 00:11 |
| alankila | Just measured webkit 1.1.7 from lucid against the ubuntu ppa nightly build of chromium using sunspider. http://bel.fi/~alankila/webkit-1.1.17-vs-chromium-svn20091210r34249.txt | 00:11 |
| |COM|Styx | i am getting the error where the dll reports the wrong version | 00:11 |
| |COM|Styx | err | 00:12 |
| ActionParsnip | preecher: what is? | 00:12 |
| |COM|Styx | .so | 00:12 |
| ardchoille | fdsa_: http://www.livecdlist.com/wiki/index.php/LiveCD_Creation_Resources | 00:12 |
| preecher | under my router port forwarding/triggering setup page | 00:12 |
| alankila | webkit got 558 ms as runtime, and chromium 655 ms. Thus, webkit 1.1.17's javascript beats google's efforts by nearly 20 %. | 00:12 |
| ActionParsnip | preecher: yuo'll need to read your manual | 00:12 |
| preecher | o ok | 00:12 |
| losha | abo: I don't think so.... | 00:12 |
| dennister | do I do a dist-upgrade to jaunty from hardy? (new install, on a hp tablet notebook) | 00:13 |
| abo | losha, how can I update the bios? | 00:13 |
| TerrorInK | lol | 00:13 |
| === baba_b00i is now known as baba_B00ie | ||
| alankila | the 1.1.15 at karmic is at equal footing, they got basically the same numbers. But that was because webkit's string, regex and date functions were exceptionally slow. They have been fixed in 1.1.17, apparently, as they now are the same roughly as v8's. | 00:13 |
| ActionParsnip | abo: dos boot disk | 00:13 |
| losha | abo: the update itself should come with instructions. Is it a mobo? | 00:13 |
| syn-ack | dennister, You can't.. | 00:13 |
| syn-ack | dennister, you'd have to upgrade to all the versions in between first... it'd be simpler to just reinstall | 00:14 |
| abo | dmidecode shows : SMBIOS 2.3 present | 00:14 |

| wushu | does the ubuntu livecd start the ssh daemon at boot? | 00:14 |
| ViridianFire | how do I get rid of or replace Pulse Audio? | 00:14 |
| ActionParsnip | !upgrade | dennister | 00:14 |
| ubottu | dennister: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 00:14 |
| dennister | syn-ack: no? a customer of mine did, and of course ran into problems I was able to rectify for him...thanks | 00:14 |
| ActionParsnip | wushu: no but it can be installed and ran | 00:15 |
| |COM|Styx | god, i hate apt | 00:15 |
| losha | wushu: I don't think so. But you can apt-get install ssh after booting.... | 00:15 |
| abo | losha, ActionParsnip, what's a mobo.. sorry I'm not very familiar with the upgrade process... I'm trying to figure out what is the bios and where to find an upgrade | 00:15 |
| Seveas | Dictator, growisofs is for creating the .iso, wodim is for burning it | 00:15 |
| wushu | ActionParsnip, i wanna help a guy fix his grub.. | 00:15 |
| al2cand | I would like anyone to give me a good address on how to install applications to my xubuntu... I am total beginner and used windows since born... | 00:15 |
| Dictator | ... | 00:15 |
| wushu | ive never used ubuntu | 00:15 |
| wushu | so jsut apt-get install ssh | 00:15 |
| wushu | and then how does he start it? | 00:15 |
| ActionParsnip | abo: mobo == motherboard | 00:16 |
| wushu | ? | 00:16 |
| maco | al2cand: #xubuntu might work better | 00:16 |
| wushu | like: /etc/init.d/sshd start | 00:16 |
| wushu | ? | 00:16 |
| Seveas | ViridianFire, unfortunately, you don't. PulseAudioWrangler is mandatory now | 00:16 |
| ezzieyguywuf | abo=alien board? | 00:16 |
| ActionParsnip | wushu: sudo apt-get install openssh-server | 00:16 |
| ViridianFire | why? | 00:16 |
| losha | abo: sorry, a motherboard. Bios software is very low level, usually the manufacturers instructions have to be followed very precisely to upgrade... | 00:16 |
| ViridianFire | I think it is causing problems | 00:16 |
| Dictator | Seveas, im following this guide... i couldnt find any other way to burn xbox 360 backups . http://biodegradablegeek.com/2009/03/burning-xbox-360-games-on-linux-stealth/ | 00:16 |
| ViridianFire | and since when is something mandatory on Linux? | 00:16 |
| losha | wushu: yes, /etc/init.d/ssh start | 00:17 |
| dennister | syn-ack: no wonder my "customer" had problems, problem is this tablet, because it's a tablet, won't be testable with a livecd in all its features | 00:17 |
| Seveas | ViridianFire, oh, it is causing a ton of problems alright.... | 00:17 |
| ActionParsnip | abo: you need to see what board you have then find the right bios. If you screw it up you may brick your board (no boot so cannot reinstall the old bios) | 00:17 |
| wushu | and what is the livecd login defaults? | 00:17 |
| wushu | user/pass | 00:17 |
| dennister | not as far as the wacom is concerned, anyway | 00:17 |
| ViridianFire | so why is it the default program if it causes problems? | 00:17 |
| syn-ack | dennister, heh | 00:17 |
| maco | wushu: both "ubuntu" | 00:17 |
| Seveas | ViridianFire, it is not mandatory for linux, but it is mandatory if you want to get any sound out of gnome and some other apps | 00:17 |
| wushu | thanks | 00:17 |
| wushu | ill ask if something goes south | 00:17 |
| Dictator | is there a way to burn xbox 360 backups on ubuntu? | 00:18 |
| ViridianFire | there isnt an alternative? | 00:18 |
| maco | ViridianFire: use kde? | 00:18 |
| losha | ViridianFire: try this: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/fix-for-all-pulseaudio-related-issues.html | 00:18 |
| Seveas | ViridianFire, because the idea behind pulseaudio is good. It's just the implementation that has bugs. It's software after all so it has bugs :-) | 00:18 |
| dennister | syn-ack: the reason I installed hardy in the first place was that the howtos for this model said hardy would work | 00:18 |
| ViridianFire | i guess | 00:18 |
| ActionParsnip | ViridianFire: you can use OSS as an alternative | 00:18 |
| ViridianFire | but my headphone jack doesnt work | 00:18 |
| syn-ack | dennister, sure it would. but it's a bit old. :/ | 00:18 |
| abo | ActionParsnip, losha, using dmidecode I got the following info http://pastebin.com/d4c98be30 | 00:18 |
| losha | dennister: well that's a good reason. | 00:19 |
| ViridianFire | how do I use OSS alternative? | 00:19 |
| Dictator | is there a way to burn xbox 360 backups on ubuntu without using imgburn/wine? | 00:19 |
| JerVA | I have a question here | 00:19 |
| JerVA | How do I speed up ubuntu OS? | 00:19 |
| JerVA | I'm running Karmic | 00:19 |
| maco | ViridianFire: ubuntu has ALSA not OSS, and OSS isnt in the kernel | 00:19 |
| beeftube | any way to magically re-generate the fstab file? the backup is corrupt too | 00:19 |
| ActionParsnip | abo: try: sudo lshw | head -n 20 | 00:19 |
| wushu | you can just type the indo in beef | 00:20 |
| wushu | info | 00:20 |
| maco | ViridianFire: i would guess your driver is misdetecting your hardware. file a bug 'ubuntu-bug linux' | 00:20 |
| wushu | its not that hard if you look at what it needs | 00:20 |
| Brandon_ | Hi, I'm creating a custom Ubuntu Live CD and am having trouble with repositories updating. | 00:20 |
| Brandon_ | Trying to install VMware Player | 00:20 |
| ViridianFire | I had the same problem on a previous computer though | 00:20 |
| dennister | if i do a "clean" install with my jaunty cd (after I dig it up) I just have to format / partition, right, leaving /home alone? | 00:20 |
| ViridianFire | I guess ill file the bug | 00:20 |
| losha | dennister: yep, that's the idea. And optionally a swap partition if you're using it... | 00:21 |
| ViridianFire | losha: That link wont work for me. I my sound preferences don't look anything like whats pictured | 00:22 |
| ViridianFire | I have used that before on an older system and it worked however | 00:23 |
| fcuk112_1 | Dictator: you can use the cli to burn x360 games. | 00:23 |
| dennister | losha: always use a swap...don't think it's possible to do a linux install without a swap | 00:23 |
| Dictator | fcuk112_1 whats that? | 00:23 |
| dennister | lookee here, jaunty was right on top of the stack :) | 00:23 |

| Brandon_ | Dictator: CLI = Command Line Interface = Terminal | 00:24 |
| losha | ViridianFire: I just skipped that part, since I don't use gnome. Sound works (sort of) though some apps still have sound problems... | 00:24 |
| Dictator | i did... i followed a guide and im stuck here | 00:24 |

| losha | Dictator: no, that's not it either. Try dmesg | more and look around the part where it mentions the usb device. You want a /dev/something.... | 00:28 |
| epinky | beeftube: just boot LiveCD copy /etc/fstab.pre-uuid to your /etc/fstab, you can have a base then | 00:28 |

| pyrophelia | Amaranth: that makes no sense, you can hot add a device to a raid at any time, otherwise mdadm would be useless | 00:32 |
| losha | Dictator: that's it? No 'using /dev/blah' message in the dmesg output? | 00:33 |

| aliendude5300 | Hi, looking to upgrade from Ubuntu 32bit 9.10 to 64-bit 9.10, what do I need to do to make sure that all of my personal files stay the same, and I have the same packages installed in the new version? Would there be any issues? | 00:47 |
| cn28h | aliendude5300, when you say upgrade, you mean do a fresh install? | 00:48 |
| SeViLLa | aliendude5300: simple backup | 00:48 |
| Guest37078 | SeVilla - it says Authentification FAILED. But user::ubuntu and pass:null WORKS GREAT (no authentification failed message) BUT it re-requests login again and again no matter if the login is "correct" ??? | 00:48 |
| slackpipe | it's 192.168.1.0, 0.0.0.0, 255.255.255.0, U, 2, 0, wlan0 | 00:48 |
| cn28h | slackpipe, what's the only line? | 00:48 |
| cn28h | that part looks fine | 00:49 |
| slackpipe | and then 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1, 255.255.255.0, u, 0,0, wlan0 | 00:49 |
| cn28h | ok, that looks okay too | 00:49 |
| aliendude5300 | cn28h, yeah... but I want to everything the same and restore it easily, like firefox settings and my home folder. would copying the home folder be enough? I was thinking about installing both Ubuntu 32bit and 64bit at the same time and then deleting the 32bit when I copy everything, but it might break something. I have a 1.5TB hard drive. Space is not an issue. | 00:49 |
| cn28h | aliendude5300, yeah, that'd be enough to save your settings and whanot | 00:50 |
| cn28h | whatnot | 00:50 |
| Bridge| | how would I echo out on a html file Welcome <USER> where USER == the current user logged in via htaccess/basic auth/apache2? | 00:50 |
| cn28h | slackpipe, what about tracepath 192.168.1.1? | 00:50 |
| slackpipe | cn28h, i thought it did. i compared it to the connectino on this computer | 00:50 |
| skrite | aliendude5300, backup your home folder | 00:50 |
| cn28h | slackpipe, and the computer you're on now pings 192.168.1.1 with no problem? | 00:51 |

| MTecknology | aliendude5300: don't make the copy for your home directory if you have anything running - especially firefox | 00:51 |
| aliendude5300 | what about system packages? Is there a way to get a list of them and then apt-get install them all on the new install? | 00:52 |
| aliendude5300 | I'm on the system I'm planning to upgrade now... | 00:52 |
| bastidrazor | !clone | aliendude5300 | 00:52 |
| ubottu | aliendude5300: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate | 00:52 |
| MTecknology | aliendude5300: is synaptic there's options to save/restore package state | 00:52 |
| slackpipe | cn28h, it gives childsplay.local (192.168.1.103) .06ms pmtu 1500 | 00:52 |

| cn28h | slackpipe, have you checked dmesg for error messages? it's weird if your route is right and the other box can ping it that you can't | 00:58 |

| jordanwb | MTecknology: I don't see a ufw file in /var/log | 00:59 |
| grendal_prime | oh come on..that cant be right | 00:59 |
| jordanwb | maybe because I haven't enabled ufw yet | 00:59 |
| ardchoille | grendal_prime: perhaps you need development files for mono? | 00:59 |

| tech404 | I'm looking for a text editor to do some reporting in. A lot of it comes from templates. Features I need: gui, split screen, templating system, spell check, tabs, snipits or programable auto-complete, and sessions. I've tried scite, gedit, and tea and none of them seem to do the whole job. Any suggestions? | 01:18 |
| MTecknology | jordanwb: I would presonally suggest using pfsense or m0n0wall. Those are systems that are designed for the purpose and much more secure in that regard. | 01:18 |
| jordanwb | MTecknology: Okay I'll take a look at those. Thanks | 01:18 |
| xandros | I have another question - I have a linux live cd which I wish to play around with, (i.e. edit it in ways I wish not to explain for it will take too long) however it only has basically 1 file, squashfs, I've done a small amount of research and I've concluded that a linux kernel is compiled into this single file...is there any way to "decompile" it and be able to edit the individual files of it? | 01:19 |
| Billiard | xandros: yes | 01:19 |
| Octoroks | Hello. I am having a problem with Grub with Ubuntu 9.10. I have a Windows 7 partition that is about 100gb. I installed Ubuntu side-by-side fulling knowing that it was there. Ubuntu installed fine, but the problem was is it won't show/load my Windows partition on boot. It goes directly to Ubuntu. | 01:19 |
| MTecknology | jordanwb: just fyi - pfsense is probably better for your use - m0n0wall is great but it's designed more for embedded devices | 01:19 |
| xandros | well that's good news, care to elaborate? | 01:20 |
| tech404 | Octoroks: Have you held down shift during boot so you can get to the grub menu? | 01:20 |
| MTecknology | Octoroks: grub-legacy or grub2? | 01:20 |
| MTecknology | Octoroks: nevermind - dumb question on my part | 01:20 |
| Octoroks | tech404, I didn't know you can do that. | 01:20 |
| Octoroks | I'll try and report back. | 01:20 |
| slackpipe | cn28h, in /etc/network/interfaces should the wireless be the first device, orr the loopback? and does it matter | 01:21 |
| Billiard | xandros: you should be able to just extract it do watever you want, such as chroot into it and install packages, then mksquashfs the directory and put it back in the iso, sorry i cant remember the command to extract it, other than mounting and copying | 01:21 |

| Pest1 | hi | 01:28 |
| JoeSomebody | shift drag= no, alt drag = no | 01:28 |
| leaf-sheep | JoeSomebody: Hold SHIFT as you drag them. It should move instead of copies. Also, it make copies because you're moving to different partitions or hold SHIFT, I think. | 01:28 |
| leaf-sheep | JoeSomebody: CTRL, I mean. | 01:28 |

| ConcreteBurger | On your main computer, can you boot into any OS? | 01:33 |
| JoeSomebody | kindofabuzz, leaf-sheep : ok for some reason it was not working right on dragging, and now IT IS, believe it or not , sounds like i am nuts huh | 01:33 |
| jrib | Wolfman2000: those are both in the repositories | 01:33 |
| Pest1 | on my lap top theres just the ubuntu | 01:33 |
| Wolfman2000 | jrib: I like my source compiling. They're already installed | 01:33 |
| Pest1 | on this one there vista and ubuntu | 01:34 |
| ConcreteBurger | What's wrong with GRUB? | 01:34 |
| jrib | Wolfman2000: why? If you use the repositories, this will be taken care of for you and you will get automatic security updates | 01:34 |

| Pest1 | it was really oddd | 01:34 |
| jrib | Wolfman2000: easy to remove and do it the right way though | 01:34 |
| ConcreteBurger | So on the other computer, you can't boot into anything? | 01:34 |
| rawr_ | wolfman: perhaps a chrontab? | 01:35 |
| Pest1 | nope | 01:35 |
| Wolfman2000 | jrib: I don't see what's wrong with using the source. | 01:35 |
| Pest1 | just say missing os | 01:35 |
| jrib | Wolfman2000: the two advantages I just mentioned | 01:35 |
| rawr_ | umifier: maybe if you spam your question a couple hundred more times | 01:35 |
| ConcreteBurger | hmm. i see. Now, why does the USB fail, do you know? | 01:35 |
| Pest1 | my be a bad cd ? | 01:35 |
| rawr_ | pest1: yes what do you mean when you say it fails exactly | 01:35 |
| Pest1 | it comes up with 3 fails | 01:36 |
| Umifier | Rawr_: Im in desperate need :) | 01:36 |
| jrib | Wolfman2000: are you really going to monitor security lists, patch your apache and postgresql yourself when something comes up, and rebuild every time? | 01:36 |
| ConcreteBurger | Would it be possible to download a fresh ISO and then try to create a liveCD with that? | 01:36 |
| Pest1 | An uncaught exception was raised: | 01:36 |

| Pest1 | its clean | 01:37 |

| Phuzion_ | Umifier... NDISWRAPPER shouldn't be necessary... is this a fresh insall? | 01:37 |
| Phuzion_ | *install | 01:37 |
| ConcreteBurger | If you think the CD is at fault, it's probably best to download a new ISO | 01:37 |
| Wolfman2000 | Let me ask this then. | 01:37 |
| mizerydearia | Xorg/xfce/desktop environment freezes after some time of usage. What log file can I check to find out what is causing freeze? I am logged in remotely? | 01:37 |
| Pest1 | after i did the update it asked me for my pass again then went to a black sreen said a few values then said ttyl:1 | 01:38 |
| jrib | Wolfman2000: anyway I really really advise you to use the repositories but "/msg ubottu !boot". If you want to use a sysv initscript, read /etc/init.d/skeleton (and use sysv-rc-conf) or for upstart, "/msg ubottu upstart" | 01:38 |
| Wolfman2000 | If I were to choose to install PG with the package manager, would it come with the initscript? | 01:38 |
| Umifier | Phuzion_: I'm not really sure. I have tried the installer from Marvell's homepage, and yes. im sure its the right option. | 01:38 |
| ConcreteBurger | Can you get as far as the GRUB menu? | 01:38 |
| jrib | Wolfman2000: yes | 01:38 |
| Pest1 | nope | 01:38 |
| moddinati | jrib: Thanks I was able to fix the problem by changing the group permissions. Much Appreciated | 01:38 |
| Pest1 | just into my bios | 01:38 |
| ConcreteBurger | So it just says Initializing GRUB and then crashes? | 01:38 |
| jrib | moddinati: no problem | 01:38 |
| Pest1 | no | 01:38 |
| Pest1 | just saying missing oparting systeam | 01:39 |
| ConcreteBurger | I see. Well, it seems you can't do too much without a liveCD or USB | 01:39 |
| Pest1 | i know... :( | 01:39 |
| ConcreteBurger | You could always remove the harddrive and place it into another computer with a CD drive if you must | 01:40 |
| Phuzion_ | Umifier you don't know if you just installed Ubuntu? | 01:40 |
| rawr_ | i'm still confused as to why he can't get the usb boot working | 01:40 |

| jrib | !gparted | Cowfishy | 01:41 |
| ubottu | Cowfishy: gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php | 01:41 |
| ConcreteBurger | hmm. Yes. I am confused as to why the USB isn't working. | 01:41 |
| Jim1967 | I'm using 9.04. It hung on startup, and when it was restarted the lower panel was blank and doesn't show minimized program. How do I get back to the default panel settings? | 01:41 |
| Cowfishy | I tried Gparted but once I create the filesystem its instantly corrupted | 01:41 |
| Phuzion_ | Umifier what make & model is your computer? | 01:41 |
| Billiard | Cowfishy: which filesystem type? | 01:41 |
| Pest1 | i'm trying to make a usb start up | 01:41 |
| Cowfishy | I'm trying to make an ext3 | 01:41 |
| Pest1 | with a cd and usb | 01:41 |
| matju | if i get «invalid superblock» while trying to mount or fsck or dumpe2fs an ext2 filesystem, what can i do? | 01:41 |
| Pest1 | but it fails | 01:41 |
| Billiard | Cowfishy: how do you try to mount it? | 01:42 |
| ConcreteBurger | Have you tried using an ISO image instead of a CD? | 01:42 |
| jrib | !enter | Pest1 | 01:42 |
| ubottu | Pest1: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 01:42 |
| rawr_ | Pest1: saying it fails is meaningless to me. Are you saying when you try to boot to it or what | 01:42 |
| Umifier | Phuzion_: Asus p5Q Premium. If that's what you're trying to ask. | 01:42 |
| Billiard | Cowfishy: how do you determine that its corrupted? | 01:42 |
| Cowfishy | Well, in Gparted, the thing says its corrupted. Anyway, I tried to mount it like: mount -t ext3 /dev/sdb1 /media/External | 01:42 |
| Pest1 | dude rawr your not helping | 01:43 |
| Pest1 | just stop | 01:43 |

| rawr_ | Pest1: i do not mean to be a bother, simply saying you need to be more specific | 01:43 |
| Billiard | Cowfishy: wont work how? | 01:43 |

| ConcreteBurger | I have gotten that error before with an external harddrive. I found that reformatting it fixed the problem | 01:44 |
| Cowfishy | It says that the filesystem is invalied and if it is a real ext2 filesystem then to run another type of fsck | 01:44 |
| jrib | Alan502: launchpad librarian has them (somewhere, don't ask me) | 01:44 |
| Alan502 | jrib, is that a site or someone? | 01:45 |
| Pest1 | when i try to make startup disk | 01:45 |
| jrib | Alan502: launchpad.net | 01:45 |
| Billiard | Cowfishy: i suppose you could try creating the partition with mkfs.ext3 | 01:45 |
| ConcreteBurger | Pest1: Try to drag a file onto it and see if you get the same error | 01:45 |
| jrib | Alan502: I'm fairly certain you can find old packages there | 01:45 |
| rawr_ | Pest1: ok see that's all i needed. do as concrete says. also what format do you have it in | 01:45 |
| matju | Billiard: at first i got i/o errors, i unmounted, disconnected, reconnected, mounted with the drive icon, then used the «mount» command, then added «-t ext2» to see whether it's any different | 01:45 |
| Phuzion_ | umifier... does your laptop come equipped with a wireless on/off switch? | 01:45 |
| Cowfishy | Ok. I think I did that before but I should proabably erase the drive first | 01:46 |
| Alan502 | which is a stabler distribution than ubuntu but user friendly as well by the way? | 01:46 |

| Cowfishy | Ok, it's writing some inode tables lol | 01:46 |
| jrib | Alan502: can't get more stable than debian stable | 01:46 |

| matju | Billiard: how much time would a dumpe2fs take, to run? it doesn't seem to be reading anything at all. | 01:48 |
| Alan502 | ardchoille, im running karmic | 01:48 |
| rawr_ | Bigrobc: you don't need to do that. try pidgin | 01:48 |
| andi_ | It's weird, I have a Synaptic Touchpad, but when I tested it using synclient, it can only detect 1 finger. Anyone have any idea what caused this? | 01:48 |
| syn-ack | What kernel bugs? | 01:48 |
| lasivian | which freeciv client should I use one a acer netbook? gtk/sdl/Xaw3D | 01:48 |
| lasivian | i'm not sure what the difference is | 01:48 |
| luiz | sdl | 01:48 |
| syn-ack | Alan502, Kernel bugs are ALWAYS fixed | 01:48 |
| Alan502 | jrib, a google "site:launchpad.net" doesnt retrive any reelevant links when looking for plasma-widget-networkmanagement_0.1~svn1023224-0ubuntu1_amd64 | 01:48 |
| matju | Billiard: in dmesg, i see «ext4» complaining about unsupported features, but i never used ext4 | 01:48 |
| Billiard | Bigrobc: might want to try the wine channel, did you check the wine appdb to see if that app works | 01:48 |
| Phuzion_ | umifier... maybe one of these 2 links can help you? http://vip.asus.com/forum/view.aspx?board_id=20&model=Eee+PC+900%2FLinux&id=20080606083521421&page=1&SLanguage=en-us | 01:48 |
| MrSun | ubuntu on acer netbooks are damn slow | 01:48 |
| ardchoille | Alan502: I would suggest trying Jaunty before moving to debian stable, Jaunty is newer and easier to upgrade to Lucid when it's releases | 01:48 |
| Phuzion_ | http://vip.asus.com/forum/view.aspx?id=20080614055134328&board_id=20&model=Eee+PC+4G%2fLinux&page=1&SLanguage=en-us | 01:48 |

| MrSun | well I have the AO751h | 01:49 |
| Out_Cold | debain has less of a following and less support than ubuntu | 01:49 |
| Bigrobc | yeah i'm using pidgin right now but i've been hearing of people actually using yahoo | 01:49 |
| Alan502 | syn-ack, everyday i use it prompts me "A serious kernel problem found" and i ALWAYS report. | 01:49 |
| lasivian | I gave my GF a first gen acer for net surfing with ubuntu on it | 01:49 |
| lasivian | good learning tool | 01:49 |
| syn-ack | Alan502, That's not necessarily a kernel issue | 01:50 |
| MrSun | does ur GF like ubuntu? | 01:50 |
| rawr_ | Bigrobc: what's wrong with pidgin. trying to fix something that's not broken are we? | 01:50 |
| Phuzion_ | looking for a lil help if anyone can assist with java freezing up | 01:50 |
| Out_Cold | my gf likes the cube and snow.. | 01:50 |
| Alan502 | syn-ack, i've looked for documentation and it seems it has been for quite a while | 01:50 |
| syn-ack | Alan502, May I see the link to the bug report, please? | 01:50 |
| Alan502 | syn-ack, i dont have it handy now, im on my main box | 01:50 |
| MrSun | who created this room and when lol | 01:51 |
| Alan502 | syn-ack, the bug is on my netbook | 01:51 |
| lasivian | Out_Cold, my GF told me a year ago "Please learn Linux, I want to and I want you to be able to answer my questions", how could I refuse that :) | 01:51 |
| Alan502 | syn-ack, i can turn up my netbook and look for it if you want tho | 01:51 |
| ardchoille | Alan502: Seriously, give Jaunty a try, it's quite nice IMHO | 01:51 |
| lasivian | any suggestions for good games I should install now for my long plane flight? | 01:51 |
| syn-ack | Alan502, It'd be kind of interesting to see so I can see if it's upstream | 01:51 |
| maco | lasivian: send your girlfriend to #ubuntu-women and we'll help her learn :) | 01:51 |
| syn-ack | Alan502, which version of Ubuntu is this | 01:52 |
| syn-ack | ? | 01:52 |
| ardchoille | maco: Good point :) | 01:52 |
| Out_Cold | lasivian, i wish i had your gf lol | 01:52 |
| Umifier | Phuzion_: The problem is that i dont have any internet on the fail-computer. So i wont be able to update anything or DL. I do have a USB-stick besides me. | 01:52 |
| maco | lasivian: also... battle for wesnoth | 01:52 |
| Alan502 | syn-ack, its karmic, but i had the same problem iwth jaunty | 01:52 |
| arghh2d2 | lasivian nethack ftw! | 01:52 |
| lasivian | Out_Cold, many men do, heh | 01:52 |
| maco | lasivian: frets on fire, if you have headphones | 01:52 |
| Alan502 | ardchoille, i used jaunty before karmic | 01:52 |
| ardchoille | Alan502: Ah, ok | 01:52 |
| Out_Cold | lasivian, the penguin one.... ummmm tux something 3d? | 01:52 |
| Alan502 | Anyway this is not what i came to! where can i find this package: plasma-widget-networkmanagement_0.1~svn1023224-0ubuntu1_amd64 | 01:52 |
| Bigrobc | anybody really good setup up compiz cube effects on ubuntu | 01:52 |
| jrib | Alan502: ... https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/plasma-widget-networkmanagement | 01:52 |
| Phuzion_ | Umifier that's probably a good place to start, let me see if I can find something else as well | 01:53 |
| Alan502 | jrib, thanks a lot man :D | 01:53 |
| maco | Alan502: in karmic, should be knetworkmanager instead, i think | 01:53 |
| Out_Cold | so i'll try this yet again... I was trying to set up an NFS on one box, yet I can't seem to get it going. Here's what I get so far... http://pastebin.com/m662494e1 **note that there are 2 boxes involved | 01:53 |
| jrib | Alan502: if there are regressions though you should report them | 01:53 |
| soreau | Bigrobc: Can you ask in a way that makes sense? | 01:53 |
| Umifier | Sorry for causing trouble/anger management :) | 01:53 |
| lasivian | isn't there a new version of nethack named something else? | 01:53 |
| Alan502 | maco, the thing is that knetwork manager in karmic has BUGS that do not allow me to connect to my 3g connection | 01:53 |
| matju | Billiard: ok, i'm gonna try to solve the problem the microsoft way : i'm gonna try a reboot. | 01:54 |
| Bigrobc | yeah i'm eating at the moment sorry for that | 01:54 |
| syn-ack | Alan502, Yeah, The only way these things get fixed is if you report them | 01:54 |
| Umifier | matju: <3 | 01:54 |
| maco | Alan502: oh. i think the plasmoid had bigger bugs that prevented it being default | 01:54 |
| Billiard | matju: ha, doubt it will work | 01:54 |
| Phuzion_ | Umifier do you know how to paste bin? | 01:54 |
| mizery | Xorg/xfce/desktop environment freezes after some time of usage. What log file can I check to find out what is causing freeze? I am logged in remotely? | 01:54 |
| Alan502 | jrib, what happens; and it seems that it not only happens to me; is that when i click on my 3g connection. Nothing happens | 01:54 |
| Umifier | Phuzion_: I guess so. | 01:54 |
| Phuzion_ | Umifier yes or no? | 01:54 |
| Alan502 | jrib, what happens; and it seems that it not only happens to me; is that when i click on my 3g connection, nothing happens. It doesnt even try to connect | 01:55 |
| Umifier | Phuzion_: No, then. | 01:55 |
| jrib | Alan502: I'm sure if you filed a bug some knowledgeable soul would tell you how to get more details | 01:55 |
| MrSun | im out you guys | 01:55 |
| MrSun | ttyl | 01:55 |
| matju | Billiard: i doubt it too, because i tried deconnecting and reconnecting the câble. otherwise i'd thing that it could be bad RAM... | 01:55 |
| Alan502 | jrib, i know do you know which are the so called "debugging packages" i must install to provide "better bug reports"? | 01:55 |
| jrib | !debug | Alan502 | 01:56 |
| ubottu | Alan502: For help debugging your program, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProcedures | 01:56 |
| jrib | Alan502: that page should list the repositories that provide them | 01:56 |
| matju | Billiard: 4-5 years ago i had an app that consistently crashed the PNG decoder in Linux, until i rebooted. it was the RAM. one bit wrong, out of 4 billion. | 01:56 |
| Phuzion_ | Umifier do *lshw -c network (minus the *) in a terminal go to http://pastebin.com/ and paste output there | 01:56 |
| Billiard | matju: ha | 01:56 |
| Phuzion_ | umifier then paste the url here | 01:56 |
| Umifier | phuzion_: ok, be back in a minute. | 01:57 |
| Alan502 | do you know whats exactly the "svn"? | 01:57 |
| Phuzion_ | anyone able to assist with Sun Java freezing Firefox? | 01:57 |
| matju | Billiard: but then, it was new RAM. if old RAM is broken, i'd be surprised. RAM that survives 4 years of daily use normally gets upgraded long before it dies. | 01:57 |
| jrib | Alan502: svn stands for subversion, a revision control system. It's the revision | 01:57 |
| Alan502 | jrib, :D thanks i will read it; maybe they will finally fix that amarok bug | 01:57 |
| lasivian | anyone have a droid and got tethering working? | 01:58 |
| Umifier | Phuzion_: Sun java freezing firefox as in getting pop-ups att facebook-freezes? | 01:59 |
| Phuzion_ | umifier no.... just freezing when trying to run Java... namely with Yahoo | 02:00 |
| Umifier | Phuzion_: http://pastebin.com/d267d605f there you go, there's everything | 02:00 |
| ardchoille | lasivian: That question is probably better on http://forums.t-mobile.com | 02:00 |

| mine | it | 02:05 |
| Out_Cold | mine, update it with the update managerr or use sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade | 02:05 |

| mine | ok | 02:06 |
| lasivian | I wish I could run aptitude twice | 02:06 |

| dtownhero | mizery: check /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 02:23 |
| duck_tape1 | dtownhero: how do i do that? | 02:23 |
| mizery | dtownhero, It doesn't exist | 02:24 |
| laeg | do i have to configure every app that uses audio manually to use alsa, how come it doesn't default to alsa? | 02:24 |

| dtownhero | duck_tape1: use Synaptic package manager to search for ia32-libs if you are not familiar with command line | 02:25 |
| Plan9 | thx guys lshw was the right thing ;) | 02:25 |

| mizery | dtownhero, I just want to provide a functional/stable system for a friend. Right now it isn't stable | 02:28 |

| nak | How do I properly kill X without it restarting? | 02:29 |
| nak | Each time I do CTRL+ ALT+ F1 the Xorg/gdm binaries are still running. | 02:29 |
| nak | killall -9 gdm-binary Xorg just restarts them | 02:29 |
| nmoss | try `sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop` | 02:30 |
| dtownhero | nak: logout out to login screen and do alt + f2 to login via console | 02:30 |
| dtownhero | if even your login screen is running you cannot kill X | 02:30 |
| dtownhero | nmoss: you'll only be able to do that from a console login | 02:30 |
| cn28h | nak, as an aside, -9 should be a last resort if term doesn't work | 02:30 |
| duck_tape1 | HP sucks.. they call rpm's "hpacucli-8.35-7.0.noarch.rpm" and force dependencies on 32bit libs | 02:30 |
| dtownhero | you cannot kill X while using Xchat because it uses X | 02:30 |
| dtownhero | you cannot kill X period while logged in any other way then via console | 02:31 |
| dtownhero | so logout | 02:31 |
| dtownhero | at login screen press alt + f2 | 02:31 |
| dtownhero | login via console | 02:31 |
| dtownhero | do sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 02:31 |
| dtownhero | then ps -ef|grep gdm to ensure no remnants are running | 02:32 |
| cn28h | or just pgrep gdm | 02:32 |
| dtownhero | that too | 02:32 |
| Pest1 | anyone here that i was talking to just a bit ago | 02:32 |
| nmoss | Well, AFAIK you *can* do it from e.g. gnometerm, as long as you're happy with it killing your session. | 02:32 |
| nmoss | :) | 02:32 |
| dtownhero | and if it kills your session what do you do? | 02:32 |
| dtownhero | you login via console login | 02:32 |
| dtownhero | again | 02:32 |
| dtownhero | so you might as well just logout | 02:33 |

| LuisGMarine | is there any command to check if someone is on my wireless network? | 02:36 |

| LuisGMarine | and I think he's mooching off my internet | 02:36 |
| LuisGMarine | and as soon as I turned off my router he closed his laptop and left | 02:36 |
| LuisGMarine | now my internet is back to normal speed, but when he was outside it was lagging | 02:37 |
| dtownhero | LuisGMarine: if wireless is off now he cannot access it. My recommendation is using Mac Filtering + WPA | 02:37 |
| TheLearningC | Luis, just restrict connection by Mac Adderss | 02:37 |

| dtownhero | TheLearningC: even that can be spoofed. | 02:37 |
| dtownhero | it's very simple to spoof your mac for wireless access | 02:37 |
| TheLearningC | yes, but most of the time not | 02:37 |
| mtoroyarzo | w | 02:37 |
| TheLearningC | only by hackers | 02:37 |
| dtownhero | well that's why I suggest multiple forms of security | 02:37 |
| dtownhero | doesn't take a hacker man | 02:37 |
| dtownhero | just somebody that can watch a youtube video | 02:38 |
| TheLearningC | hahah | 02:38 |
| LuisGMarine | lmao | 02:38 |
| LuisGMarine | very true | 02:38 |
| TheLearningC | I guess, it all available these days | 02:38 |
| LuisGMarine | if you can work google you can do anything | 02:38 |
| dtownhero | the thing is - the more methods of security you put in the less likely they are going to get in. | 02:38 |
| dtownhero | it's like a street block - you have 10 houses you can break into 3 have bars 4 have dogs 2 have alarms and one has nothing | 02:38 |
| dtownhero | where are you gonna go? | 02:39 |
| TheLearningC | hahah | 02:39 |
| TheLearningC | yep, | 02:39 |
| dtownhero | put a few bars up I.E. mac filtering + wpa key - nobody is gonna bother | 02:39 |
| dtownhero | and if they do | 02:39 |
| dtownhero | you probably know them already :p | 02:39 |

| muo | hi | 02:40 |
| muo | i just installed ubuntu on my laptop | 02:41 |
| dtownhero | muo: grats! | 02:41 |
| lifestream | what's your question? :P | 02:41 |
| dtownhero | lifestream: I think he's just overjoyed | 02:42 |
| jedivulcan | ubuntu = win | 02:42 |
| researcher1 | I was suggested to install grub-pc in this chat but my PC still fails to boot. I can only see this message Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. For the first word, TAB lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB lists the possible completions of a device/filename. ] grub>. Anybody can HELP? PLEASE? | 02:42 |
| muo | but the disk space most of them are located at /host. how can i shift to to /muo/Desktop | 02:42 |
| zengeos | hmmm...just had a thought | 02:42 |
| lifestream | dtownhero, I'm overjoyed I install ubuntu, since breezy badger | 02:42 |
| dtownhero | muo: you can use gparted to move stuff around but you can't really do that while the partitions are mounted I.E. you're using them | 02:42 |
| zengeos | it's a rare occurence!!! | 02:42 |
| lifestream | dtownhero, but see, he did have a Q ;p | 02:42 |
| dtownhero | muo: you should have done that during the install | 02:42 |
| gdiz | hello everyone, has anyone messed with the hulu desktop for linux? Specifically does anyone know if you can run it from the terminal? I'm getting a gtk error which makes me think not. | 02:43 |
| dtownhero | lifestream: I'm sorry that I'm passing him the bad news. :( | 02:43 |
| lifestream | ;p | 02:43 |
| muo | dtownhero: when i install the ubuntu, it said..specify installatioin size.i selected only 10 GB | 02:43 |
| muo | the rest of the 150 GB is now at /host | 02:43 |
| zengeos | muo that should be ok as long as you also have a swap space I would think | 02:44 |
| muo | zengeos: i was expecting most of the disk space is located at my own /muo | 02:44 |
| muo | rather than at /host | 02:44 |
| dtownhero | zengeos: it's not OK to have 150g of space you cannot access | 02:44 |
| dtownhero | muo: if that space is not mounted you can do it | 02:44 |
| muo | i can access to the /host currently | 02:44 |
| dtownhero | muo: but you'll have to put it somewhere other then muo | 02:45 |
| dtownhero | muo: that's not a bad idea though, here is why | 02:45 |
| Double | download the gpated boot disk http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php | 02:45 |
| dtownhero | the way you have it now, you can save your music and movies and whatever else to the 150g space in /host | 02:45 |
| Mike_lifeguard | Hi, my flash plugin has stopped working after an upgrade. Could someone let me know a recent working version number so I can try reverting to that? (flashplugin-nonfree, I think?) | 02:45 |
| dtownhero | that way if you ever have to reinstall you only have to install over the 10g partition and you can save all of your files on the other partition | 02:46 |
| dtownhero | however if you want to change stuff check out gparted | 02:46 |
| dtownhero | !gparted | muo | 02:46 |
| ubottu | muo: gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php | 02:46 |
| Out_Cold | Mike_lifeguard, try reinstalling the same version | 02:46 |
| Fizix | Hey guys, what's the name of that program that'll read ATI's windows drivers binary and allow you to use it for Ubuntu? | 02:46 |
| muo | dtownhero: so i cant shuffle the remaining 150gb to /muo/? | 02:46 |
| TMK | Mike: try grabbing the .tar.gz version of flash from adobe | 02:46 |
| dtownhero | muo: it depends on how you have things mounted | 02:46 |
| ubuntu_ | Can someone help explain to me how to install grub on its own. I want to put grub on an external hard drive. Is this possible? | 02:46 |
| dtownhero | muo: but gparted will tell you what you need to know | 02:46 |
| muo | err..im using 9.04 | 02:46 |
| muo | what should i sudo aptget install? | 02:47 |
| Out_Cold | muo, you can mount that 150gb to /muo/muo/muo/muo if you wanted... just hve to adjust for it | 02:47 |
| arooni-mobile2 | hi folks if my drive just hangs upon startup, does that mean i should just reinstall ubuntu on it? | 02:47 |
| arooni-mobile2 | hi folks on boot up, ubuntu hangs and just shows me the logo, does that mean i should just reinstall ubuntu on it? | 02:47 |
| dtownhero | muo: you probably already have gparted but my recommendation would be to use a live cd to edit the partitions | 02:47 |
| thinesh_ | i tried to make password proctect the folders but y it sdidt ask for the password again. | 02:48 |
| dtownhero | muo: this way you ensure none of the partitions are mounted and in use, while booted to the live CD | 02:48 |
| dooglus | how do I set configuration for xorg now that we don't have xorg.conf? | 02:48 |
| dooglus | I want to turn on the BackingStore | 02:48 |
| dooglus | !xorg.conf | 02:48 |
| ubottu | The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution | 02:48 |
| darthanubis | muo, my advise is to reinstall and this time choose a sane partition plan and use that | 02:48 |
| maco | dooglus: xrandr | 02:48 |
| dooglus | !xrandr | 02:48 |
| muo | i am now in the link youve given..which one should i choose to download ? | 02:48 |
| ubottu | XRandR 1.2 is the new method of running dual screens in !X. Information/HowTo here: http://wiki.debian.org/XStrikeForce/HowToRandR12 | 02:48 |
| dtownhero | muo: unfortunately I agree with darthanubis. | 02:49 |
| dooglus | thanks | 02:49 |
| DarkMasterHalo | z | 02:49 |
| Double | create a new xorg.conf ?? | 02:49 |
| muo | darthanubis: reinstall the whole ubuntu? | 02:49 |
| darthanubis | yup | 02:49 |
| dtownhero | muo: not so fast | 02:49 |
| muo | so this time i should not select 10GB ..rather the whole 150GB as file installation size? | 02:49 |
| darthanubis | nope | 02:49 |
| dabomb69 | How would I enable X11 forwarding on Ubuntu? | 02:49 |
| darthanubis | a partition plan | 02:49 |
| dtownhero | muo: please PM me | 02:50 |
| dooglus | maco: is that a guess? there's no mention of BackingStore in the xrandr man page. I don't think BackingStore is related to the xrandr extension is it? | 02:50 |
| Double | with ssh dabomb? | 02:50 |
| dtownhero | dabomb69: you have openssh-server installed? | 02:50 |
| maco | dooglus: i dont know what backingstore is | 02:50 |
| dabomb69 | dtownhero, yup | 02:50 |
| Double | http://tldp.org/HOWTO/XDMCP-HOWTO/ssh.html | 02:50 |
| maco | dooglus: just that xrandr is how you configure X now | 02:50 |
| darthanubis | 20 gb for / 30 gb for /home 2gb for swap and whatever is left for /storage | 02:50 |
| dtownhero | dabomb69: when you connect to remote server use the -X and -Y flags | 02:50 |

| Double | was looking into it yesterday so had it bookmarked :D | 02:50 |
| darthanubis | somthing like that | 02:50 |

| vixermixer | anyone know if apache2 directives enough to route domains from godaddy total dns manager, if i just point domains to same ip? | 03:16 |
| Gummi_ | Brandon, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware/Player | 03:16 |
| mattwj2002 | okay thanks | 03:17 |
| vixermixer | or would i need bind | 03:17 |
| mattwj2002 | I am trying to use it to make a cluster | 03:17 |
| Gummi_ | Brandon, virtualbox might also do the trick perhaps.... | 03:17 |
| mattwj2002 | does the cluster for uce work with regular 32 bit linux software? | 03:17 |
| Brandon | Gummi_, it has to be from a repository | 03:17 |
| Gummi_ | Brandon, doesn't virtualbox do it for you? it is in the official repo | 03:18 |
| Double | the server will still need its internal dns configured vixermixer to resolve the domain once the request hits the server | 03:18 |
| Brandon | Gummi_, it also HAS to be vmware player for what I'm doing. I apologize | 03:18 |
| mattwj2002 | I love the idea of doing a cluster | 03:19 |
| mattwj2002 | :) | 03:19 |
| Double | so you will need bind | 03:19 |
| vixermixer | <Double> oh well... i guess more playing with bind, it's just so abstract to me... | 03:19 |
| === sal is now known as Guest75258 | ||
| Brandon | Gummi_, let me describe what I'm doing. I'm trying to make a live cd custom with vmware player on it. | 03:20 |
| opticon | i have hp deskjet f340 printer anyone know if theirs way to get drivers for this printer is shared on windows network im trying to install shared printer on ubuntu | 03:20 |
| vixermixer | because i am trying to config bind using the ubuntu server guide :) maybe when i hit the road block i ll ask here :) | 03:20 |

| eliot_ | why can't i render my videos to mp4 in kdenlive? | 03:21 |

| researcher1 | I have ubutnu already installed | 03:23 |

| muo | anyone uses wubi? | 03:23 |
| researcher1 | my ubuntu worked well until I install remastersys | 03:23 |
| === jaynano is now known as repdev | ||
| researcher1 | I backedup with remastersys and the systme now cant start | 03:23 |
| Gummi_ | Brandon, no I think it creates vmware player package | 03:23 |
| Double | and you get gnome on the live cd? | 03:24 |
| syk | boring | 03:24 |
| researcher1 | lemme check | 03:24 |
| syk | sorry | 03:24 |
| Brandon | Gummi_, it'd be easier to find the package in a repo instead though. I have to use vmware player or it does not count. Remember my goal here, I'm making a custom live cd with vmware player on it. | 03:24 |
| researcher1 | yes I get genome | 03:24 |
| Double | and when do you get the message? | 03:25 |
| researcher1 | when I power on. Just see black screen and ... | 03:25 |
| lwb | why | 03:25 |
| Double | powering on after an install? | 03:25 |
| Chamunks | Anyone know how I could change http://myserver.com/torrentflux to http://myserver.com/something else with the version that installs from the repo's? | 03:26 |
| Brandon | Gummi_ continuing where I left off it has to be through apt-get | 03:26 |

| Guest20044 | ok i still get nothing | 03:27 |
| Sloppy | Brandon, no one at my ISP understands linux | 03:27 |

| Orion777 | I'm having internet problems, could there be newer drivers for my wifi card? | 03:30 |
| researcher1 | so what shall I do now? | 03:30 |
| IdleOne | duck_tape: not sure what you are doing but why are you using an rpm? | 03:30 |
| duck_tape | IdleOne: coz its the only thing HP provides | 03:30 |
| === HughGrant is now known as kermit | ||
| lwb | my 3d desktop can not work. I had done a lot of work.but it still can not work | 03:30 |
| duck_tape | and yes HP *sucks* | 03:30 |
| Nperil | <--- newb to ubuntu and finally found dial up and need to know how to connect it | 03:30 |
| syn-ack | I beg to differ | 03:30 |
| IdleOne | !alien | duck_tape | 03:31 |
| ubottu | duck_tape: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported) | 03:31 |
| syn-ack | Nperil, first does the modem actually work? | 03:31 |
| ath_ | heya; wondering if anyone else is having any problems with the proprietary ati drivers on karmic 2.6.31-16? | 03:31 |
| woodford_ | 3d desktop need graphics driver from vendor | 03:31 |
| Brandon | Gummi_ do you know what to do in this scenario | 03:31 |
| Nperil | as far as i know | 03:31 |
| syn-ack | Nperil, have you tested it? | 03:32 |
| ath_ | woodford_, that's not even vaguely helpful. | 03:32 |
| Nperil | wouldnt know how | 03:32 |
| on3m0r3f15h | just sayin hi | 03:32 |
| syn-ack | Nperil, the reason I'm asking is because MOST laptop modems don't work in linux well most modems don't by defualt | 03:32 |
| Double | researcher1 easiest option reinstall | 03:32 |
| lwb | thank you,woodford . | 03:32 |
| Nperil | its on a pc | 03:32 |
| syn-ack | Nperil, Can you see the modem in your lspci? | 03:32 |
| woodford_ | ok what's your graphics card, nvidia or ATI? | 03:33 |
| lwb | nvidia | 03:33 |
| researcher1 | shall I reinstall the whole of UBUNTU 9.10 ? | 03:33 |
| Sloppy | well, since no one here can help me. i guess i'll just ditch ubuntu. | 03:33 |
| Nperil | no | 03:33 |
| Sloppy | peace | 03:33 |
| syn-ack | Nperil, does lshw show it? | 03:33 |
| researcher1 | Double:shall I reinstall the whole of UBUNTU 9.10 ? | 03:33 |
| woodford_ | do you install nvidia's dirver? | 03:33 |
| lwb | yes | 03:34 |
| Nperil | no | 03:34 |
| syn-ack | Nperil, chances are, its an Conexant modem then | 03:34 |
| Nperil | think i need a new one | 03:34 |
| syn-ack | Nperil, Go to linuxant.com and follow their directions | 03:34 |
| syn-ack | Nperil, be warned however, that that method is NOT supported by Ubuntu and that it can and may break things | 03:34 |
| Nperil | ooohhhhhh that might be a problem | 03:35 |
| woodford_ | lsmod |grep nvidia | 03:35 |
| syn-ack | Nperil, Actually, I can pretty much guarantee that you're going to break Pulse Audio with that driver | 03:35 |
| lwb | at first It can work.but after I upgrade the system to 9.10 .there is something wrong with it | 03:35 |
| Nperil | so it would be better to just get a new modem | 03:36 |
| syn-ack | Nperil, if you can find one with a UART in it that'd be great.... meaning not a freaking winmodem | 03:36 |
| Nperil | shouldnt be hard | 03:37 |
| syn-ack | Nperil, Those, I hate to say are a dying breed these days | 03:37 |
| woodford_ | any echo when you run "lsmod |grep nvidia" ? | 03:37 |
| lwb | no | 03:37 |
| lwb | nothing | 03:37 |
| rawr_ | i have a multi monitor setup and want to use my monitor on the right as the primary but x apparently insists on having my left monitor be the primary. xrandr --output HDMI-0 --primary apparently is not correct. been fishing through the xrandr help files and googling but can't seem to get it. using an ATI 4870 | 03:37 |
| syn-ack | Nperil, I know 3Com still makes the old 56k Serial Modems... even updated for USB! :P | 03:38 |
| syn-ack | Those are mucho expensive though | 03:38 |
| Nperil | you guys are the best. and thanks syn ack | 03:38 |
| syn-ack | Nperil, np | 03:38 |
| Guest20044 | it works | 03:38 |
| lwb | what's the problem | 03:38 |
| Nperil | well if it has to have it then it has to have it. thanks | 03:38 |
| woodford_ | it seems you need reinstall nvidia driver | 03:38 |
| rawr_ | bleh that sounds fun :( | 03:39 |
| rawr_ | also notice ATI 4870 | 03:39 |
| Kensey | weird issue when I log into KDE | 03:39 |
| lwb | ok.I'll have a try | 03:39 |
| Kensey | compiz.real + Xorg eat ~95% CPU | 03:39 |
| Fizix | That it's not Gnome? I have that issue too :P | 03:39 |
| soreau | rawr_: Switch the monitor cables ;) | 03:40 |
| Kensey | if I go to a prompt and type compiz --replace & everything stabilizes | 03:40 |
| researcher1 | If I reinstall will it delete earlier program installations,settings and configurations? | 03:40 |
| rawr_ | soreau: tried that. it seems whatever monitor i select as being on the left it uses as primary | 03:40 |
| soreau | Kensey: Possible diver memory leak | 03:40 |
| Kensey | obviously I need it to run whatever that is instead of compiz.real, but how? | 03:40 |
| Kensey | well this is a Dell Lat with Intel graphics | 03:40 |
| kija | ubuntu shows blank screen after 5 min.. cannot watch videos.. really annoying.. how to fix it? | 03:40 |
| Kensey | so I think it's trying to do acceleration but not AIGLX. Or something? Dunno really | 03:41 |
| soreau | Kensey: on ubuntu, compiz is a script that runs compiz.real (the binary) with appropriate options based on your setup | 03:41 |
| soreau | Kensey: So it is likely some graphics driver issue, possibly a memory leak | 03:42 |
| Kensey | but why would running compiz again fix it? | 03:42 |
| soreau | Kensey: Which graphics driver are you using? | 03:43 |
| Kensey | and why would it be specific to KDE? | 03:43 |
| soreau | Because kde sucks? | 03:43 |
| Kensey | I set it up to use AIGLX but that was like two releases ago. I haven't actually configured it in years. | 03:43 |
| Fizix | Mmm, I'll second that soreau | 03:43 |
| Kensey | hardware-wise I think it sees an Intel 915 device | 03:44 |
| skeet0r | hey all, anyone know of a way to play a .divx movie with .idx files in VLC? | 03:45 |
| skeet0r | whenever I try to open a .idx I get an error with VLC | 03:45 |
| kija | skeet0r: try mplayer | 03:47 |
| skeet0r | kija, have you had any luck with that? | 03:47 |
| mheld | I don't understand why I can see a file, but when I try to execute it, I get a "No file or directory" error (I've chmod 777'd it) | 03:48 |
| kija | skeet0r: i havnt tried it yet | 03:48 |
| losha | skeet0r: if idx files work like other subtitle files, you don't open them directly. You open the divx file and the player looks for the same name with an .idx extension to get the subtitles.... | 03:48 |
| arghh2d2 | mheld: you cant execute just any old file like windows .exe's | 03:49 |
| Kensey | mheld: if it's not in your $PATH you have to specify the path to it | 03:49 |
| arghh2d2 | mheld: if you are in the same directory as the file try putting a ./ in front of the file name example: ./file | 03:50 |
| losha | mheld: what file is it? | 03:50 |
| skeet0r | losha, I know thats how it works in Windows Media Player but in VLC it doesn't work | 03:50 |

| kija | skeet0r: havnt tried it with idx but srt works | 03:53 |
| arghh2d2 | Kensey: i was thinking maybe it's a link | 03:53 |

| Kensey | so it works if you're in the directory but not otherwise? | 03:54 |
| Bondy | you need to include the ./vgclient then | 03:55 |
| mheld | no, it still gives an error | 03:55 |

| Kensey | ah | 03:55 |
| Nperil | does any one know if backtrack supports a win modem or does it have to have a uart modem | 03:55 |
| Kensey | what does file /usr/bin/vglclient say? | 03:55 |

| losha | skeet0r: Just tried it. mplayer finds and displays the subtitles automatically. vnc sees the subtitles in the video menu but doesn't seem to display them.... | 03:55 |

| IdleOne | declan2: download the Alternate CD and use that to upgrade or backup and fresh install. 7.10 is no longer supported | 04:08 |
| IdleOne | Bondy: sorry :) | 04:08 |
| declan2 | wtf | 04:08 |
| maxagaz | How to copy all files found using "find ./" to /my/directory ? | 04:08 |
| declan2 | Can I not just get the new kernel too? | 04:08 |
| Kensey | from 7.10 you'd have to dist-upgrade through each version to current to upgrade reliably | 04:09 |
| declan2 | Wow | 04:09 |
| declan2 | wtf | 04:09 |
| declan2 | argh | 04:09 |
| IdleOne | Kensey: does it still dist-upgrade after EOL? | 04:09 |
| declan2 | Ok, how can I install arch straight from ubuntu? | 04:09 |
| Kensey | see that's the thing, you can't dist-upgrade without an archive | 04:10 |
| perith | how does uwf compare with firestarter or other firewalls? | 04:10 |
| Guest89544 | bodi: yes you could reformat your recovery drive and use that, but you would be better off leaving it and shrinking your windows partition, then creating a new partition for ubuntu | 04:10 |
| IdleOne | declan2: try sudo upgrade-manager -d | 04:10 |
| declan2 | IdleOne: To do what? | 04:10 |
| jordan_ | hey i need some help getting set up. it took me an hour to figure out how to get an irc client to get help in the first place lol | 04:10 |
| IdleOne | to upgrade | 04:10 |
| Rajasun | perith: it depends. both are easy. but easy is a relative thingy isn't it? | 04:10 |
| declan2 | Ok, lemme try | 04:10 |
| jordan_ | anyone wanna go in private chat? | 04:10 |
| Kensey | with Debian I actually had to go to the Debian archives when I upgraded sarge -> lenny | 04:11 |
| Asad2005 | How do i get rid off these errors "W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net karmic Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY EC9C35EAEF400C7C" | 04:11 |
| losha | jordan_: we don't chat much here. Try #ubuntu-offtopic | 04:11 |
| Kensey | or maybe it was potato -> sarge | 04:11 |
| Rajasun | perith: go with gufw first probably. if you don't like it, you can then try firestarter. | 04:11 |
| jordan_ | haha i meant like help chat | 04:11 |
| IdleOne | jordan_: ask your question and someone will help if they can | 04:12 |
| declan2 | IdleOne: I apparently don't have upgrade-manger | 04:12 |
| declan2 | manager* | 04:12 |
| tsunami | noone here uses cURL do they? | 04:12 |
| IdleOne | declan2: Alternate CD is the way then. | 04:12 |
| bodi | yes but is it safe that way ? the chances of success with out having problems that way | 04:12 |
| declan2 | IdleOne: Yeah, getting arch so I don't have to do this crap again...rolling updates ftw | 04:12 |
| IdleOne | declan2: up to you :) | 04:13 |
| IdleOne | declan2: backup! | 04:13 |
| Bondy | you need to add the key for the resporitry asad | 04:13 |
| jordan_ | well i have a bcm43xg wireless card and i cant get it to work i currently have a wired network all the ubuntu repo sources | 04:13 |
| declan2 | IdleOne: do you know of any good way to install another distro just from a working linux desktop? | 04:13 |
| jordan_ | srry i mean universal repo source | 04:13 |
| IdleOne | declan2: I don't sorry | 04:13 |
| losha | declan2: do you mean a cd-less install? | 04:14 |
| perith | rajasun: gufw? graphical ufw? | 04:14 |
| Rajasun | Asad2005: Try sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com EF400C7C; sudo aptitude update | 04:14 |
| Guest89544 | Jordan: enabled non-proprietary drivers? | 04:14 |
| Rajasun | perith: graphical frontend to ufw yeah | 04:14 |
| perith | rajasun: nm, found it | 04:14 |
| jordan_ | Guest:how | 04:14 |
| mizery | An update to my issue from previous message: syslog( http://is.gd/5j34W ) | 04:16 |
| jordan_ | ? | 04:17 |
| Guest89544 | jordan: it may not be the issue.. but in gnome gui its in the administration menu> drivers? | 04:17 |
| Guest89544 | something like that | 04:17 |
| Bondy | system>admin menu>hardware drivers | 04:17 |
| bastid_raZor | declan2: technically a dist-upgrade is a form of rolling update. | 04:18 |
| sal_ | jordan goto system/admin/hardware drivers | 04:18 |
| jordan_ | oh ok well i went to go activate it and it wont activate> | 04:18 |
| sal_ | jordan. the bcm is proprietary, select it and click to enable drivers | 04:18 |

| mark__ | Does anyone know how to set different sound devices for different applications using pulse audio? I'm trying to set my bluetooth headset for only skype, I can only find a way for all audio to go through it or none. | 04:18 |
| syilo | ok everybody listen up, I KNOW somebody in here has to have a google wave invite | 04:18 |

| syilo | thanks | 04:20 |
| sal_ | jordan check your file browser in /lib/firmware for the folders b43 and b43 legacy .. | 04:20 |
| wrapster | is there a hot key to lock screen. on ubuntu | 04:22 |
| sal_ | jordan. also check your package mngr to be sure you have the b43 fwcutter package installed | 04:22 |
| jordan_ | srry i had to reboot | 04:22 |
| Asad2005 | Rajasun: it did not work should i put http://ppa.launchpad.net instead of keyserver.ubuntu.com | 04:22 |
| jordan_ | k | 04:22 |
| wizard-and-the-g | does anyone know how to throttle the download speed in mercurial | 04:22 |
| wizard-and-the-g | ? | 04:22 |
| jordan_ | sal_:im going to reinstall it jic | 04:23 |
| jordan_ | sal-:done | 04:23 |
| jordan_ | sal_:now what? | 04:24 |
| Rajasun | Asad2005: No. What you need is the key. And these are store on a keyserver. | 04:24 |
| sal_ | you have the b43, b43 legacy files in /lib/firmware and the b43fwcutter pkg? | 04:25 |
| Asad2005 | Rajasun: why EF400C7C and not the full EC9C35EAEF400C7C | 04:25 |
| Rajasun | Asad2005: depending on the repo, onwer may have changed hois key but not have it outdated. Your options then: 1.) if you a security conscious kind of guy, disable that repo for the time being 2.) Irnore that error | 04:25 |
| sal_ | try thr hardware drivers again and try to activate it | 04:25 |
| Rajasun | Asad2005: You can try with that whole string or you can just pick up the last alphanumeric characters | 04:26 |
| Rajasun | Asad2005: You can try with that whole string or you can just pick up the last 8 alphanumeric characters | 04:26 |
| Asad2005 | Rajasun: I have the same error with http://archive.ubuntu.com karmic-updates and security | 04:28 |
| bodi | I have read many forums of doing it that way, but what is really the right way yo partition like that? | 04:29 |
| bodi | oops to | 04:29 |
| Rajasun | Asad2005: re-run sudo aptitude update. Sometimes, it is but a transient phenomenon. Sometimes not. But I usually have no issues with the main server. | 04:29 |
| Asad2005 | Rajasun: When i tried imort key it says key 437D05B5: "Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key <ftpmaster@ubuntu.com>" not changed | 04:30 |
| starwind | anyone aware if I'll have trouble if I try to dual boot between an upgraded karmic(ubuntu) using legacy grub and karmic(kubuntu) using grub 2 since its default? | 04:30 |
| Asad2005 | Rajasun: So why it gives error when doing apt-get update | 04:31 |
| Rajasun | Asad2005: Then it ain't an issue. Ignore. Will go away soon enough. | 04:31 |
| Joshh100 | hey all, any of you guys familiar with a way to play .idx subtitle files in ubuntu? | 04:32 |
| Joshh100 | I always get an error in VLC when trying to do so | 04:32 |
| Rajasun | Asad2005: Ubuntu doesn't change its package signing key for the duration of the same release. Not a usual occurance amongst distros in general. | 04:32 |
| jordan_ | hey so it rebooted my computer | 04:33 |
| losha | Joshh100: 3rd time tonight someone's asked this. It seems to work with mplayer but not vlc... | 04:33 |
| sal_ | what distro you running? | 04:33 |
| Guest89544 | starwind: it shouldn't be a problem. grub2 is different to configure, but either will work | 04:33 |
| Joshh100 | hah yea it was me on the other comp sorry.. | 04:33 |
| Joshh100 | I cant get it to work on mplayer either | 04:33 |
| jordan_ | just the regular ubuntu | 04:33 |
| Billiard | Joshh100: i think idx goes with sub, do you have both files? | 04:34 |
| Joshh100 | I was wondering if there is a better program aside from these two | 04:34 |
| Joshh100 | yes I do | 04:34 |
| starwind | thanks | 04:34 |
| sal_ | yeah, but which one ..? | 04:34 |
| Joshh100 | it works so damn easily in windows | 04:34 |
| Billiard | Joshh100: i would try to find some srt files, sub is crap, sir | 04:34 |
| sal_ | hardy 8.04, etc ?? | 04:34 |
| Joshh100 | do they load in VLC? | 04:35 |
| Guest89544 | yes | 04:35 |
| Billiard | Joshh100: yes srt is text file, any decent player can use them, sub is like pictures its crap | 04:35 |
| MSK | Hi, I am using Ubuntu 9.04 and need to have a Voice and Video chat from yahoo and gmail .. please suggest me which messenger i need to configure ? | 04:35 |
| sal_ | check @ /sys/admin/sys monitor -- should say which release you're using | 04:36 |
| Joshh100 | hmm well Im trying to find .srt file for these subs | 04:36 |
| losha | Joshh100: my mplayer complains it can't read the subs file, but then reads & displays them anyway....! | 04:36 |

| Guest62007 | how do i restore grub after installing vista? | 04:37 |
| jordan_ | k well it restarted again | 04:37 |
| sal_ | sounds like your having more issues than just wifi | 04:37 |
| minh | HI | 04:37 |
| losha | !mbr | Guest62007: see if this helps... | 04:38 |
| ubottu | Guest62007: see if this helps...: 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. | 04:38 |

| UbuntuLily | I am new to Ubuntu. I switched my laptop from Vista (Gag) to Ubuntu 9.10. Fresh install. I am having issues reading DVD's. I don't think the problem is due to CSS because 1- I installed it to no avail and 2- I tried an Unencrypted DVD. Its strange though because when I put in a CD drive works fine, when I put in a DVD is doesn't acknowledge anything in drive | 04:38 |
| bodi | lilly do search a new driver | 04:39 |
| Joshh100 | Billiard, this is a thing of beauty | 04:40 |
| edgenet2009 | ? | 04:40 |
| Joshh100 | I found a great website with a ton of subs in .srt | 04:40 |
| Joshh100 | no problems whatsoever | 04:40 |
| Joshh100 | stupid .idx and .sub | 04:40 |
| Joshh100 | wtf is the point | 04:40 |
| Joshh100 | haha | 04:40 |
| FloodBot2 | Joshh100: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 04:40 |
| Guest89544 | MSK: I don't know about pidgen, but Kopete will allow you to use yahoo with video. you need to get and configure a package called "jasper" after you configure kopete | 04:40 |
| bodi | what is it josh | 04:40 |
| Hilikus | is anyone here using or know of anyone using a SATA drive to IDE interface converter? | 04:40 |
| Billiard | Joshh100: yea, srts are text so they can be rendered at any font and size and stuff, sub is pictures and they are all low res | 04:40 |
| UbuntuLily | Driver for DVD? | 04:40 |
| Beezie | Hilikus, yes | 04:40 |
| Hilikus | if so, does ubuntu recognize them? | 04:40 |
| Beezie | Hilikus, sorry i meant sata > usb | 04:41 |
| MSK | Guest89444 : thank you.. what about audio chat ? | 04:41 |
| Hilikus | cause AFAIK some of them are transparent, but some others need drivers | 04:41 |
| UbuntuLily | Beezie - I am using one | 04:41 |
| bodi | driver for the drive brand and model | 04:41 |
| Hilikus | Beezie: internal sata ? | 04:41 |
| Guest89544 | MSK: I guess its probably just a matter of getting your mic configed | 04:42 |
| losha | Joshh100: the point of .idx and .sub is that they are images, not text, so you can do any character in them, even hieroglyphics... | 04:42 |
| Beezie | no sorry i meant i am using a sata > usb device | 04:42 |
| minh | HI | 04:42 |
| UbuntuLily | Bodi - I didn't see one. Its a TSSTcorp TS-L632M | 04:42 |
| UbuntuLily | its a laptop Slim | 04:42 |
| minh | WHY MY NETWORK IS SLOW | 04:42 |
| minh | ? | 04:42 |
| Beezie | WHY CAPS? | 04:42 |
| UbuntuLily | Beezie - I am using one. Whatcha wanna know? | 04:43 |
| Billiard | losha: like you would want to do odd characters like that, you shouldnt need anything not in utf-8 | 04:43 |
| Beezie | i wasnt asking, hiliwas asking if anyone had sata > ide working | 04:43 |
| MSK | Guest89444 : Yes i have tried with kopette.. but there is only video chat and there is no audio chat. I thought some one might have come accross with this issue so i enquired here. | 04:43 |
| Beezie | Hilikus, i mean | 04:43 |
| Guest62007 | losha, is that guide for 9.10? it talks about modifing menu.lst... | 04:43 |
| Joshh100 | losha, but they dont work in ubuntu so they suck | 04:43 |
| greezmunkey | minh, what is your question? Please be specific. | 04:44 |
| Guest62007 | !grub2 | Guest62007 | 04:44 |

| ubottu | Guest62007, please see my private message | 04:44 |
| sal_ | jordan. try this doc https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx | 04:44 |
| Joshh100 | but I see what you're saying | 04:44 |
| Hilikus | !grub2 | 04:44 |
| ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 04:44 |
| Joshh100 | I suppose if I wanted to watch a movie in hebrew of russian it would be useful | 04:44 |

| tsunami | how can i open a shell as root? | 04:44 |
| Beezie | tsunami, sudo su | 04:44 |
| syk | !root | 04:45 |
| ubottu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 04:45 |
| scunizi | tsunami: if you have to log in as root in a shell.. sudo -i | 04:45 |
| Bondy | but you can set a root password by doing a sudo passwd root | 04:45 |
| scunizi | tsunami: are you coming from another distro? | 04:46 |
| tsunami | centos | 04:46 |
| Rajasun | Bondy: Not recommended officially in Ubuntu. | 04:46 |
| ZeroKewl | help with audio in games has a buzzing sound with Realtek HD sound card | 04:47 |
| losha | Bondy: I routinely do that, although it's considered heresy... | 04:47 |
| scunizi | tsunami: ah.. no wonder you asked.. sudo is the norm with ubuntu.. there are a few instances you have to be logged in as root to get a package installed or configured.. but that's pretty rare.. sudo works fine for 99% of the time | 04:47 |
| ZeroKewl | any fix on the sound | 04:48 |
| losha | scunizi: the only time it's ever mattered to me is when fsck fails during boot. You need a root password to get into single-user mode... | 04:48 |
| === dabossbv1 is now known as dabossbv | ||
| arghh2d2 | tsunami: you can try sudo xterm if your in windows | 04:49 |
| arghh2d2 | errr in X, fsck windows | 04:49 |
| ZeroKewl | i went as far as installing the sound driver from realtek site | 04:49 |
| greezmunkey | losha, regarding root then, wouldn't it use the same password that sudo uses? | 04:49 |
| ZeroKewl | and it still does it | 04:49 |
| isolat3dsh33p | anyone uses the drawer on the panel? It's amazingly slow. =_= | 04:49 |
| jordan_ | according to this site http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43 my wireless card isnt supported | 04:49 |
| jordan_ | 14e4:4329 | 04:50 |
| jordan_ | 04:50 | |
| losha | greezmunkey: No. sudo wants your user password. Logging in as root requires the root password. Two separate things... | 04:50 |
| scunizi | isolat3dsh33p: sometimes.. although on my hardy install it's pretty quick.. how's the rest of your graphics? | 04:50 |
| Bondy | just do a sudo su greezmonkey | 04:51 |
| greezmunkey | losha, then it would probably be a good idea to give it a password then, I honestly don't remember setting one during install - now second guessing that... | 04:51 |
| Bondy | ubuntu randomly generates root pass | 04:51 |
| losha | greezmunkey: officially, I have no opinion on the matter... | 04:52 |
| scunizi | greezmunkey: you wouldn't have on install.. it doesn't ask.. | 04:52 |
| coz_ | so guys what has changed in recent update that I can no longer use a export DISPLAY=:0.0 sudo -u gdm gnome-control-center to change karmic's gdm theme? | 04:52 |
| Billiard | Bondy: no | 04:52 |
| hitek88 | looking for a GRUB Expert | 04:52 |
| sal_ | is this a new card? if you need wifi, you may try finding an older card, or a pc type card | 04:52 |
| Billiard | Bondy: afaik it doesnt | 04:52 |
| isolat3dsh33p | scunizi: Compiz-fusion works fine, just some problem if I add the dictionary look up to the panel and the drawer. It left out the shadow effect on the destop even though the result window closed | 04:52 |
| R1_ | I need some help please !! I don't know what was removed and why these were removed when I tried to install rdesktop (sudo aptitude install rdesktop) : http://pastebin.com/d72ad7dbf | 04:52 |
| RiotingPacifist | coz_: why cant you use gksudo or kdesudo ? | 04:52 |
| Entelin | is it easy? / possible? to convert an ext4 filesystem to ext2 ? | 04:53 |
| coz_ | RiotingPacifist, this is after logging into ctrl+alt+F1 | 04:53 |
| scunizi | isolat3dsh33p: nvidia? | 04:53 |
| greezmunkey | I didn't think so, (thought I was crazy for a sec..) So if the drive gets borked, and fsck needs to be implemented what's the proceedure? Use the install cd and the tools there? | 04:53 |
| jordan_ | aawww crap i shelled out alot of money for this wifi card | 04:53 |
| Bondy | !root password | 04:54 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 04:54 |
| scunizi | jordan_: sometimes cheap is better | 04:54 |
| jordan_ | yeh | 04:54 |
| losha | Entelin: apparently not. You can go the other way ext2 -> ext3 -> ext4 but not backwards... | 04:54 |
| Billiard | Entelin: what is your ultimate goal in doing this? | 04:54 |
| jordan_ | sometimes windows is better | 04:54 |
| hitek88 | I have installed GRUB to the MBR of my USB drive, and I know grub looks for a few different files when loading. Is it possible to create a small partition that hosts these files without having any OS installed? | 04:54 |
| sal_ | that sounds about right. i'ld get yourself a $5 card on ebay the d-link gwl-650 has worked good for me | 04:54 |
| RiotingPacifist | coz_: try export DISPLAY=:0 ; kdesudo -u gdm gnome-control-center | 04:55 |
| scunizi | jordan_: *not* .. just better supported by mfger's of equipment.. | 04:55 |
| sal_ | sometimes older hardware is better .. like my truck! | 04:55 |
| coz_ | RiotingPacifist, ok will do that now | 04:55 |
| losha | jordan_: do what everyone else does. Unload it on ebay for more than you paid and then scour newegg for a card that's known to work... | 04:55 |
| Entelin | Billiard, well I dual boot this system for gaming, ive got 3 hard drives, one 1.5 TB drive, and two 400 gig's one for windows, one for linux, and the 1.5 tb drive to be shared where most all the data will be | 04:55 |
| jordan_ | ok thanks | 04:55 |
| R1_ | Can someone please help me check this out? I'm pretty sure someone experienced will require no effort answering this =/ | 04:55 |
| Entelin | Billiard, windows can mount ext2, theres nothing for ext4 however | 04:55 |
| ath_ | don't ask to ask R1_ | 04:56 |
| scunizi | R1_: answer what? | 04:56 |
| isolat3dsh33p | scunizi: nope, ati radeon HD | 04:56 |
| sal_ | jordan. ditto losha. research cards and find one known to work well under linux, then find that one | 04:56 |
| ath_ | Entelin, can also mount ext3. | 04:56 |
| R1_ | My question: I don't know what was removed and why these were removed when I tried to install rdesktop (sudo aptitude install rdesktop) : http://pastebin.com/d72ad7dbf | 04:57 |
| scunizi | isolat3dsh33p: no experience with ati unfoutunately.. but if everything else works well it's probably not the driver. | 04:57 |
| Billiard | Entelin: you might be able to mount ext4 as ext2 somewhat as read only, but im not sure | 04:57 |
| R1_ | I wanted to know if I screwed something up by using aptitude install rdesktop | 04:57 |
| isolat3dsh33p | scunizi: yeah, maybe the panel is just buggy. | 04:57 |
| Beezie | R1_, how so? | 04:57 |
| dtownhero | R1_: no. | 04:58 |
| mine | windows can mount ext2? are you sure ,how to | 04:58 |
| coz_ | well that diditn work either | 04:58 |
| Beezie | mine, might need a driver but yeah win32 talks to ext2/3 | 04:58 |
| R1_ | How come all those things were removed then? When I typed in the command. Just wondering | 04:58 |
| scunizi | R1_: nope.. but there is a remote desktop app already installed.. typically | 04:58 |
| Billiard | mine: not out of the box you need a download to do it | 04:58 |
| Entelin | Billiard, you can somewhat but you have to turn off any ext4 specific features, so why not just run ext2. Thats the same for ext3 i think as well | 04:58 |

| Bondy | would you trust windows with your Linux partitions? | 04:58 |
| ath_ | mine: yes, and ext3, but with 3rdparty support | 04:58 |
| R1_ | scunizi, can I used this app to connect to my windows 7 remote desktop? | 04:58 |
| Beezie | Bondy, sure.. if the driver is mature | 04:58 |
| Entelin | Bondy, its more a mater of necessity than anything :/ | 04:59 |
| dtownhero | R1_: yes. | 04:59 |
| Billiard | Entelin: i would use ntfs or something for a shared partition, linux and ntfs is much better than windows and ext | 04:59 |
| R1_ | !remote desktop | 04:59 |
| R1_ | !remotedesktop | 04:59 |
| Entelin | lol im not sure about that... | 04:59 |
| dtownhero | R1_: type in terminal rdesktop -g 1024x768 ipaddressofserver | 04:59 |
| R1_ | dtownhero, thanks i was just going to google it | 05:00 |
| Bondy | I agree with Billard use ntfs on my external drives that need to be used in Linux and Windows | 05:00 |
| dtownhero | R1_: I use it all the time at work | 05:00 |
| dtownhero | R1_: the -g is geometry of desktop I.E. size | 05:00 |
| R1_ | dtownhero, says connection reset by peer =/ | 05:00 |
| ath_ | or you could use RFS Entelin... | 05:00 |
| ath_ | the possibilities are endless. | 05:00 |
| ath_ | apart from having an end that is. | 05:00 |
| Guest89544 | FAT | 05:00 |
| Entelin | rfs ? | 05:01 |
| dtownhero | R1_: I'm assuming you have access this machine before via remote desktop | 05:01 |
| Entelin | lol fat, no | 05:01 |
| ath_ | reiser fs | 05:01 |
| Guest89544 | fat yes hah | 05:01 |

| R1_ | dtownhero, I can connect via my other windows 7 machine | 05:02 |
| * scunizi thinks losha said that with toung in cheek | 05:03 | |
| R1_ | So I'm assuming everything's ready to go to try to connect from ubuntu | 05:03 |
| ath_ | but one way or another, there's still support for mount r/w in *nix and windows | 05:03 |
| ath_ | its a valid option... | 05:03 |

| bastid_raZor | foxy_lady: are you trying to say #ubuntu gives better support than #fedora? | 05:11 |
| [BNC] | Dessan, thats a server, not a desktop crap | 05:11 |
| Bondy | foxy there is a few differences with ubuntu and fedora apart from what ive already mentioned restarting apache needs diff commands for another example | 05:11 |
| michael | dtownhero, sorry? i thought sudo as like 'admin', no? | 05:11 |
| losha | ashlayne: you could use the pastebin: http://paste.ubuntu.com | 05:11 |
| happylol | darthanubis: heh :) | 05:11 |
| Dessan | so all you want to know about is ahost records? | 05:12 |
| dtownhero | michael: typically yes, for video drivers sometimes no. | 05:12 |
| happylol | darthanubis: thanks :) | 05:12 |

| Alan502 | where can i launch programs? other than alt+F2 and the menu bar | 05:12 |
| bastid_raZor | [BNC]: possibly ask in #wmware | 05:12 |
| cn28h | from a terminal | 05:12 |
| michael | dtownhero, do you know this error maybe? ;) "not using locking for read only lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock" and "unable to rite to /var/cache/apt/" | 05:12 |
| Dessan | [BNC], so your VM has its own IP address on the internet? not a shared one internally? | 05:12 |
| dtownhero | Alan502: type <programname> in terminal | 05:13 |
| [BNC] | ummm nop | 05:13 |
| dtownhero | Alan502: I.E. netbeans in terminal | 05:13 |
| michael | [BNC], aptitude started to ork, but err http://ca.archive.ubuntu karmic/main | 05:13 |
| [BNC] | just 192.x | 05:13 |
| perith | how do i get to the gui for packages i installed? i dont see it anywhere. i.e. i installed ClamAV, gufw, rkhunter, chkrootkit. are these all term cmds? | 05:13 |
| mine | ok | 05:13 |
| losha | michael: did you forget to run as root (sudo)? | 05:13 |
| text | ls | 05:13 |
| dtownhero | michael: I do not recommend installing video drivers while X is running. | 05:13 |
| [BNC] | michael, check the /etc/apt/sources.list (if remember good) | 05:13 |
| scunizi | perith: yep | 05:13 |
| michael | losha, no, but sudo and sudo su have not asked for P | 05:13 |
| Bondy | rkhunter and chkrootkit dont have gui | 05:13 |
| Alan502 | dtownhero, i installed netbeans but typing "netbeans" in the terminal says the program is not installed. Althought, when i run the netbeans installer again the instaler says netbeans is already installed | 05:14 |
| losha | michael: sudo remembers your password for a short time to save typing. But you definitely have some kind of problem.... | 05:14 |
| michael | [BNC], what code do i use to open? probably not gedit if im just in x | 05:14 |
| perith | bondy: so rkhunter and chkrootkit i will need to make a term launcher w/ that cmd? | 05:14 |
| dtownhero | Alan502: I don't know what netbeans is, perhaps you could enlighten me and I could assist further. | 05:14 |
| [BNC] | cd /etc/apt | 05:14 |

| [BNC] | then nano | 05:14 |
| [BNC] | :) | 05:14 |
| michael | dtownhero, maybe "x" isn't the right word ... i just have no visual session, just terminal | 05:14 |
| ath_ | eg ubuntu 9.10 | 05:15 |
| dtownhero | michael: that makes more sense | 05:15 |
| Bondy | perith you need to run them fom a terminal either directly or via a sh scipt | 05:15 |
| michael | dtownhero, what is that called? | 05:15 |
| Alan502 | dtownhero, ok i'll tell you if i solve my problem. Netbeans is a IDE by the way. | 05:15 |
| michael | dtownhero, shell? | 05:15 |
| dtownhero | michael: so you have a shell script for the driver install? | 05:15 |
| dtownhero | michael: yes. | 05:15 |
| Bondy | do a man rkhunter | 05:15 |
| michael | dtownhero, i uninstalled them to try and re-install a new one to fix some issues, but accidentally unistalled both, so no i just have shell | 05:16 |
| michael | dtownhero, and trying to reinstall the same one i was using gives me those errors i mentioned | 05:16 |
| peeps | how can I find what package an exectutable is from? | 05:16 |
| dtownhero | Alan502: I still don't understand what netbeans is, are you saying it is a development environment? | 05:16 |
| scunizi | michael: I missed it.. what did you uninstall? | 05:16 |
| michael | dtownhero, aptitude install xserver-xorg-video-all ends with error "could not resolve 'ca.archive.ubuntu.com" | 05:16 |
| michael | scunizi, video cards :( | 05:16 |
| losha | michael: the lock file message usually means you've left apt running somewhere.... | 05:16 |
| dtownhero | michael: you likely already have xorg installed | 05:16 |
| michael | losha, just started the shell :( | 05:17 |
| dtownhero | michael: from term type sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 05:17 |
| scunizi | michael: nvidia? and did you initially install the driver from their site or the one supplied by ubuntu? | 05:17 |
| Alan502 | dtownhero, yes it is a development environment | 05:17 |
| dtownhero | scunizi: he's installing intel drivers | 05:17 |
| Alan502 | dtownhero, do you know how can i remove programs? | 05:18 |
| dtownhero | Alan502: ok | 05:18 |
| Alan502 | dtownhero, is it enough with just deleting its folders? | 05:18 |
| michael | scunizi, intel, yes it 'worked' on base install, just trying to fix some choppy errors | 05:18 |
| scunizi | dtownhero: oh.. no experience there.. sorry michael | 05:18 |

| Samual-Ubuntu | I would have installed the latest from the nVidia website, but my TTY consoles do not work :P | 05:18 |
| michael | dtownhero, said use 'service gdm stop' so i did and "stop: unkown instance:" | 05:19 |
| dtownhero | Samual-Ubuntu: get the 185 drivers recommended and tested by the ubuntu team | 05:19 |
| Alan502 | dtownhero, i did not install netbeans from synaptic; will that still work? | 05:19 |
| dtownhero | michael: ignore what it says | 05:19 |
| maco | michael: that means gdm was already not runnig | 05:19 |
| dtownhero | Alan502: no. | 05:19 |
| dtownhero | maco: no it does not. | 05:19 |
| maco | dtownhero: no? | 05:19 |
| Alan502 | dtownhero, do you know how can i remove the program then? | 05:19 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | dtownhero, Where? And can I install them without closing an X session? (Or rather, stopping GDM) | 05:19 |
| maco | dtownhero: whats it mean then? | 05:19 |
| dtownhero | maco: no, it means that the service stop package is not accurate | 05:20 |
| michael | dtownhero, aptitude intall xserver-xorg-video-intel-2.4 gives "segmentation fault" | 05:20 |
| maco | dtownhero: thats what service tells me when i try to stop kdm or network-manager and theyre not running | 05:20 |

| powdermilk | hey there, could annyone help me fix a problem i am having with my sata dvd drive? | 05:26 |
| dtownhero | michael: do sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel- and start pressing tab to see if it finds that package | 05:26 |
| Guest89544 | Brandon: You are trying to add vmware onto your custom live disk? | 05:26 |
| losha | perith: if you have a web server open to the public, it can't hurt. Otherwise, don't bother... | 05:26 |
| dtownhero | k alan is afk | 05:27 |
| dtownhero | Samual-Ubuntu: you there? | 05:27 |
| michael | dtownhero, yes, it finds it but error; "could not resolve 'ca.archive.ubuntu.com' | 05:27 |

| dtownhero | michael: | 05:27 |
| michael | i think maybe shell doesn't auto connect to the internet? | 05:27 |
| dtownhero | michael: sorry lol ahh ok | 05:27 |
| Tapout2 | I'm using ICS+Ubuntu thru Win7. It works, however where should I put the .. " route add default gw 192.168.0.1 " <-- should this go in .. /etc/rc.local ? | 05:27 |
| dtownhero | yes | 05:27 |
| Alan502 | dtownhero, yes | 05:27 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | dtownhero, yes | 05:27 |
| Alan502 | dtownhero, i think the problem is that | 05:27 |
| dtownhero | michael: do ping www.yahoo.com | 05:27 |
| dtownhero | Alan502: what? | 05:27 |
| Alan502 | dtownhero, im using netbeans instead of netbeans-6.7.1 | 05:27 |
| Alan502 | but still | 05:27 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | dtownhero, where can I find the 185 drivers? And can I install them without closing an X session? (Or rather, stopping GDM) | 05:27 |
| Beezie | !ask | powdermilk | 05:27 |
| ubottu | powdermilk: 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. :-) | 05:27 |
| michael | dtownhero, negative | 05:27 |
| Alan502 | dtownhero, typing netbeans-6.7.1 says "command not found" | 05:28 |
| michael | how do i connect to the internet in shell? | 05:28 |
| Brandon | Guest89544 : yes, because it's required for a project | 05:28 |
| dtownhero | Samual-Ubuntu: yes, you can. Try Menu > Admin > Hardware drivers | 05:28 |
| amikrop | I am using Firefox 3.5.5 and I cannot set Tools->Preferences->Privacy->Use custom settings for history | 05:28 |
| Beezie | michael, what do you mean? | 05:28 |
| dtownhero | Alan502: do a sudo find / -name netbeans | 05:28 |
| michael | Beezie, can't ping any sites, i think maybe it's just not 'turned on'? | 05:28 |
| amikrop | I mean, when I set it, it gets to its old value when I close the option box | 05:28 |
| dtownhero | michael: sec | 05:28 |
| amikrop | any help, please? | 05:28 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | dtownhero, I don't see 185 in there, only 180 -- I guess this is where I mention i'm only on 9.04 :P You see, I don't particularly like 9.10 due to it's switch to Grub2 | 05:28 |
| Beezie | michael, what does ifconfig say? | 05:29 |
| michael | Beezie, in gnome it automatic, but is there a step to do in shell? | 05:29 |
| dtownhero | michael: yes, that's you man. Fix your internetz. | 05:29 |
| Tapout2 | What is the best location to put a 'route add default...' line in ubuntu? /etc/rc.local? | 05:29 |
| Guest89544 | Brandon: wouldn't you have to install wine, then install vmware into that? can't you just use virtualbox? | 05:29 |
| jaymz281 | Hey there people | 05:29 |
| michael | Beezie, lo, inet addr: 127.0.0.1 | 05:29 |
| powdermilk | ok, im having a problem with my sata dvd drive. when i do a dmesg i get a bunch of messages starting with "ata3.00: status: { DRDY ERR }" | 05:29 |
| powdermilk | it really plugs up my log | 05:29 |
| dtownhero | Samual-Ubuntu: go with 180 and there is a really good reason you want the ubuntu install rather than a package install from the video card manufacturer I can explain if you like | 05:29 |
| Beezie | michael, u dont see eth0 or wlan0 ? | 05:29 |
| Brandon | Guest89544, vmware player is also supported in linux... | 05:29 |
| michael | Beezie, no | 05:29 |
| Brandon | Guest89544 it has to be vmware player, not virtualbox. | 05:30 |
| dtownhero | michael: that is a loopback address dudde | 05:30 |
| digitalaxis | powedermilk: This is ubuntu support, if your having hardware issues please use a hardware support IRC | 05:30 |
| scunizi | dtownhero: Samual-Ubuntu the 190 drivers are pretty quick | 05:30 |
| Beezie | michael, what type of network card? on board or pci/? | 05:30 |
| michael | Beezie, im definitely connected tho, was just using windows on dual boot | 05:30 |
| Guest89544 | oh geez, then i've been away too long | 05:30 |
| dtownhero | you ain't getting nowhere except localhost with that | 05:30 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | dtownhero, I know the reason -- You then have to recompile for every time you change your kernel -- I know this, because this is why I changed to the ubuntu ones. | 05:30 |
| Alan502 | dtownhero, it should take a while right? | 05:30 |
| dtownhero | Samual-Ubuntu: you got it brother | 05:30 |
| Beezie | michael, so it works in win but not ubuntu? | 05:30 |
| michael | dtownhero, dont see loop addy ... "UP loopback running" and "link encap:local loopback" | 05:30 |
| losha | powdermilk: are you sure your hardware is ok? I've never gotten those messages from a healthy dvd drive.... | 05:30 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | dtownhero, but well, still, with the 180 ones I can't start compiz | 05:30 |
| dtownhero | michael: do ping localhost | 05:31 |
| michael | Beezie, worked in ubuntu fine, and on live disk, just not in shell | 05:31 |
| dtownhero | and it will resolve to your 127.0.0.1 | 05:31 |
| michael | dtownhero, orks | 05:31 |
| michael | dtownhero, works | 05:31 |
| dtownhero | yeah | 05:31 |
| Beezie | michael, so gnome the net works but not shell?? | 05:31 |
| dtownhero | I know | 05:31 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | dtownhero, It comes up complaining about texture_from_pixmap segmentation faults. | 05:31 |
| mine | how to remote desktop to windows in vmware | 05:31 |
| michael | dtownhero, how do i cancel ping LOL | 05:31 |
| Beezie | tctrl c | 05:31 |
| dtownhero | michael: ctrl + c | 05:31 |
| dtownhero | Samual-Ubuntu: ick man | 05:31 |
| powdermilk | losha: yes the drive is fine, this started when i updated to the karmic beta | 05:31 |
| michael | Beezie, yes, but i have no gnome b/c i uninstalled my vid cards, and trying to reinstall via shell but no inet | 05:31 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | dtownhero, ick? That doesn't sound good :( | 05:32 |
| Beezie | michael, what type of network card? on board or pci/? | 05:32 |
| scunizi | mine: is windows the host? or the guest? what's running in vmware? | 05:32 |
| michael | Beezie, board i think | 05:32 |
| powdermilk | losha: i have seen others with this problem but there fixes dont work | 05:32 |
| michael | Beezie, laptop | 05:32 |
| dtownhero | Samual-Ubuntu: you can try to skip thru it or you can head to nvidia.com and get that 180 driver and install from shell | 05:32 |
| mine | host | 05:32 |
| Beezie | michael, what does lspci tell you? it see the card? | 05:32 |
| mine | ubuntu | 05:32 |
| mine | ubuntu running in vmware | 05:32 |
| michael | Beezie, lspci says broadcom bcm4401-bo | 05:32 |
| Beezie | michael, lspci |grep Ethernet | 05:32 |
| purvesh | hey ubuntu 9.04 is better or ubuntu 9.10 ? | 05:32 |
| scunizi | Samual-Ubuntu: if you go to nvidia might as well install the latest.. 180 was "ok" but had issues. | 05:32 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | Skip through what? | 05:32 |
| michael | Beezie, for 'ethernet controller' not sure exactly what im looking for tho | 05:33 |
| Beezie | paste the command i mentioned | 05:33 |
| dtownhero | michael: or you can edit the rc3.d *stickes* to dhcp | 05:33 |
| Bondy | you might need the broadcom propiertry driver (sp) | 05:33 |
| michael | Beezie, yup, that ... can't separate compe | 05:33 |
| scunizi | mine: so you want to use ubuntu in the vm to remote into the windows host? | 05:33 |
| Beezie | Bondy, ahhh ive heard about that | 05:33 |
| mine | yes | 05:33 |
| michael | Beezie, broadcom copr bcm4401-BO 100base-tx | 05:33 |
| Guest89544 | mine: use remote desktop. its in the internet menu | 05:33 |
| Beezie | michael, Bondy had a suggestion | 05:34 |
| losha | powdermilk: sorry, I don't see anything like that in current karmic. Are you updated to most current? | 05:34 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | dtownhero, i'll pastebin the output of compiz --replace. http://pastebin.com/m5132819f | 05:34 |
| perith | i'm trying top open /var/log/rkhunter/log w/ gedit, but it says i dont have permissions. how do i enable that? | 05:34 |
| mine | how set it to work | 05:34 |
| powdermilk | losha: yes, all updated | 05:34 |
| michael | Bondy, Beezie, i dont think so ... like i said live disk, and ubuntu works just fine ... but i just uninstalled my video card so now only have shell and now only have this problem | 05:34 |
| Brandon | Guest89544 do you know what to do? | 05:34 |
| dtownhero | Samual-Ubuntu: yeah dude your xorg.conf is hosed, if you get the 180 drivers and reinstall from shell it should prompt to replace | 05:34 |
| Beezie | michael, thats as far as i can help i dont know it well enough :/ | 05:35 |
| scunizi | mine: I've had issues doing that in virtualbox and don't remember if I tried when I was using vmware .. I believe it depends on the network connection type.. if it's NAT for the vm then ubuntu may have a different subnet.. if it's bridged it should be on the same subnet.. you might ask in #vmware | 05:35 |
| powdermilk | losha: also it doesnt give the messages when there is a cd present in the drive | 05:35 |
| michael | Beezie, Bondy, i remember doing some playing with backtrack where i had to 'turn on' the card ... or am i wrong? | 05:35 |
| michael | Beezie, well thanks for the help anyway ;) | 05:35 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | dtownhero, well, I edit my xorg.conf file manually, are you saying it's a matter of an option that I have set which is incorrect? Perhaps I should try commenting out some of the options i've done. | 05:35 |
| dtownhero | Samual-Ubuntu: you could *maybe* get by it by editing xorg.conf and adding xgl into driver type | 05:35 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | dtownhero, or rather, i'll pastebin my xorg.conf file so you can see.... | 05:35 |
| michael | Beezie, i guess i could load live cd, and download the file, then install it ... could try that | 05:36 |
| purvesh | hey ubuntu 9.04 is better or ubuntu 9.10 ? ,purvesh | 05:36 |
| mine | ok it is nat | 05:36 |
| losha | powdermilk: sorry, dunno. Try googling the model number & see if anyone else reports anything... | 05:36 |
| scunizi | mine: switch to bridged and try again | 05:36 |
| mine | ok | 05:36 |
| michael | isn't there a shell command to 'turn on' and 'turn off' wlan | 05:36 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | dtownhero, an interesting note: I'm using Xinerama with 3 monitors and xserver-xgl to accomplish Compiz on all three monitors... IT's not exactly the most clean thing in the world. | 05:36 |
| dtownhero | Samual-Ubuntu: I play wow and tf2 on my linux box via crossover and I'm saying that if I were you I'd reinstall 180 via shell and replace xorg.conf with what the shell script generates | 05:36 |
| cn28h | michael, ifconfig | 05:37 |
| michael | cn28h, yes, then? | 05:37 |
| dtownhero | Samual-Ubuntu: holy shit, I have probs with my xinerama and dual monitor | 05:37 |
| cn28h | michael, you can use it to put the interface up or down.. it has a number of options, check the man page | 05:37 |
| michael | cn28h, ifconfig just shows 'lo' | 05:37 |
| Billiard | michael ifconfig interface up|down | 05:37 |
| michael | cn28h, right, thanks | 05:37 |
| cn28h | then that's the only interface that's currnetly up | 05:37 |
| dtownhero | how the hell are you running desktop effects to begin with? | 05:37 |
| perith | how do i enable higher permissions on gedit to open log files or whatnot? do i have to go to term and "sudo gedit <file>" or is there a way from gedit gui? | 05:37 |
| mine | in vmware can we mount a really disk ? | 05:37 |
| cn28h | michael, ifconfig -a lists all interfaces | 05:37 |
| Brandon | scunizi | 05:37 |
| Billiard | perith: gksudo gedit file | 05:37 |
| scunizi | mine: "really disk" ? | 05:38 |
| scunizi | Brandon: yeessss | 05:38 |
| mine | in the host | 05:38 |
| perith | billiard: so no way to do it from gedit itself? | 05:38 |
| dtownhero | Samual-Ubuntu: sounds like I could take a few lessons from you man :( | 05:38 |
| mine | real | 05:38 |
| scunizi | mine: probably | 05:38 |
| dtownhero | I hate being one upped | 05:38 |
| dtownhero | :p | 05:38 |
| Brandon | scunizi, you seem to know about vmware and such...can you help me with my issue as well? | 05:38 |
| Tapout2 | VNC only loads when I login, anyway to get it to load before I login? | 05:38 |
| Billiard | perith: not that i know of | 05:38 |
| Guest26327 | last night, I found that my system(ubuntu 9.10 ) can't use the command "ping" ,and it returns "sendto:Permission denied". i have typed "sudo " and logined in "root",but it didn't work.who can tell me what's wrong happened? | 05:38 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | dtownhero, well.... Yes... it took me months to finally get xserver-xgl working on all three monitors... Then I noticed that my kernel had a bug with tty servers, and the only way to fix it was upgrading to a new kernel.. And well.... | 05:38 |
| dtownhero | ugh | 05:38 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | Going to a new kernel meant ditching the old (WORKING) drivers | 05:38 |
| scunizi | Brandon: I don't know..what's your issue? | 05:38 |
| michael | cn28h, eth0 and wlan0 are now in ifconfig, but still can't ping ... could you help, or no? | 05:38 |
| dtownhero | yep I know exactly | 05:38 |
| Billiard | Guest26327: can you ping with sudo, also please change your name | 05:39 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | And........................ Basically, I feel like cutting my wrists right now | 05:39 |
| mine | how to if i dont install vmtool in ubuntu | 05:39 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | Or going back to Windows | 05:39 |
| brutus | i686 means 64 bit right? | 05:39 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | Which, that's basically the same thing | 05:39 |
| kraut | moin | 05:39 |
| dtownhero | that's why I was saying about using their approved drivers, to be honest I was surprised you knew the reason why | 05:39 |
| scunizi | mine: time to ask in #vmware.. | 05:39 |
| dtownhero | now I understand | 05:39 |
| mine | ok | 05:39 |
| cn28h | michael, -a lists them whether they are up or down.. you need to bring it up.. and if you'r using wlan0 you need to associate with an AP and probably use DHCP before you'll be able to ping anything | 05:39 |
| Billiard | Guest26327: or did you try sudo ping, not sure what you tried with sudo | 05:39 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | dtownhero, i've been using Linux a while -- but, some times even the experienced people need help from even more experienced people :P | 05:40 |
| === Guest26327 is now known as Guy | ||
| dtownhero | all I can say is good luck | 05:40 |
| perith | using rkhunter, i got warnings for /user/bin/unhide and /usr/sbin/unhide-linux26, what do they mean? i get that the file exists on system but not present in rkhunter.dat file. nothing to worry about? | 05:40 |
| Brandon | scunizi: allow me to explain. I'm making a custom ubuntu live cd with vmware player installed. it has to be vmware player. not virtual box. I'm at the point of installing software following the live cd guide on the ubuntu website, but, I can't access the file from the shell I'm using as I chroot to the livecd mount I'm using to customize. if I open up another shell and run the installer,... | 05:40 |
| Brandon | ...it's only going to install it to my host system that's making the file, and not to the livecd mount that I'm working with. | 05:40 |
| dtownhero | cause you've got me with that setup | 05:40 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | Ah well, that's more than what Google said | 05:40 |
| === Guy is now known as Guest23691 | ||
| Samual-Ubuntu | Google just turned up lots of irrelevant shit | 05:40 |
| dtownhero | I seriously have to fight with my nvidia card to get dual monitor working at work | 05:40 |
| Brandon | scunizi: I'm trying to find a repository with vmware player instead, but I can't find a repo with it. trying to use apt-get to install it to my livecd mount | 05:41 |
| michael | how can i download all files needed to instal xserver-xorg-video-intel-2.4, without using synaptic? | 05:41 |
| Billiard | michael apt-get install <package> | 05:41 |
| [SilverFox] | I want to check my opengl fps and was wondering what the best way was and how do I tell if its good or not? | 05:41 |
| michael | Billiard, i just want to download so i can install offline | 05:41 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | dtownhero, here is my xorg.conf file btw: http://pastebin.com/m54217952 | 05:41 |
| scunizi | Brandon: look in http://packages.ubuntu.com for the player package.. also you might accomplish what you want in one TTY that's chrooted by using "screen" | 05:41 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | dtownhero, it's... I mean... isn't it sexy? | 05:42 |
| cheeko | i dont have internet access so where can i download requred updates and pakages | 05:42 |
| Brandon | scunizi: explain that last part? | 05:42 |
| Geoffrey2 | i have a Dell laptop that has 3-4 different possible laptop screens that could have shipped with it...any way ubuntu could tell me which one it is? | 05:42 |
| Arkade | hi, can a ext3 fs be upgraded to ext4 without reformatting? | 05:42 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | Er, it's out of order in one place | 05:42 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | But.. | 05:42 |
| michael | how can i download all files needed to instal xserver-xorg-video-intel-2.4, without using synaptic? | 05:42 |
| Billiard | Arkade: yes it can, there is a guide somewhere... | 05:42 |
| grendal_prime | grrr this is the most frustrating thing i have every experienced | 05:42 |
| michael | anyone know how i can download a package from synaptic without installing? | 05:43 |
| grendal_prime | i need a package called mono. | 05:43 |
| grendal_prime | just that just mono. | 05:43 |
| michael | so i can install on another offline machine? | 05:43 |
| scunizi | Brandon: screen is a terminal tty multiplexer.. it allows you to be in one terminal but create "virtual" terminals within the one you're in.. very cool.. | 05:43 |
| Arkade | ok thanks | 05:43 |
| scunizi | !screen | Brandon | 05:43 |
| ubottu | Brandon: Screen is a window manager for terminal sessions, also useful over SSH. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Screen | 05:43 |
| pharmer | anyone know if i is same to download torrents on ubuntu? | 05:43 |
| Alan502 | Any download accelerator besides Flashgot and Kget that runs on linux? | 05:43 |
| michael | or, can someone help me fix eth0 or wlan0 from shell? :) :) | 05:43 |
| cn28h | michael, does your wlan use encryption? | 05:44 |
| dtownhero | Samual-Ubuntu: looking now | 05:44 |
| Brandon | scunizi, i'm not finding the player package | 05:44 |
| Billiard | machael fix? | 05:44 |
| Billiard | michael ^ | 05:44 |
| scunizi | Brandon: which version of ubuntu? | 05:44 |
| michael | cn28h, actually eth0 would be better, i just unplugged the wireless, but i can plug it back in | 05:44 |
| Brandon | scunizi: 9.10 | 05:44 |
| michael | cn28h, wlan was just used for 'sharing' my neighbours as a test ;) | 05:44 |
| grendal_prime | michael eth0 from shell. would be pretty much a no brainer | 05:44 |
| Billiard | how do you unplug wireless michael | 05:44 |
| dtownhero | Samual-Ubuntu: you win line count of xorg.conf | 05:44 |
| michael | cn28h, normal i use wired | 05:44 |
| dtownhero | 164 lines | 05:44 |
| cheeko | where can i download updates for ubuntu &*kubuntu i have no access to internet thru ubuntu | 05:44 |
| dtownhero | man | 05:44 |

| El_Peke | hola | 05:45 |
| El_Peke | :D | 05:45 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | dtownhero, i've seen one that was 300+ lines before.... But to be fair it had lots of random options which actually are nearly irrelevant to an Xserver | 05:45 |
| pharmer | does anyone know if it is safe to download torrents on ubuntu? | 05:45 |
| El_Peke | algien q hable español | 05:45 |

| grendal_prime | pharmer: thats a really strange question | 05:45 |
| Osagasu | Sorry. | 05:45 |
| Billiard | pharmer it is safe to download them, not always save to use the files you download | 05:45 |
| scunizi | Brandon: I'm not either.. weird.. | 05:45 |
| dtownhero | Samual-Ubuntu: don't matter tho man I told you have probs with my like 52 line xorg for dual mon | 05:46 |
| michael | grendal_prime, no device | 05:46 |
| michael | grendal_prime, i used ifconfig eth0 up to turn it 'on' | 05:46 |
| dtownhero | that is completely compiled by you | 05:46 |
| grendal_prime | hmmm | 05:46 |
| Brandon | pharmer: ABSOLUTELY! It's not as susceptible to many viruses out there. | 05:46 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | Heh well, i'ma go troubleshoot then........ Who knows, maybe i'll break yet another thing | 05:46 |

| clueless2 | Billiard .... was trying to read the book on how to "split" the file (in this case *.mov file) | 05:50 |
| michael | grendal_prime, k | 05:50 |
| maco | michael: after "sudo -k" if you sudo doese it ask for a password | 05:50 |
| maco | michael: "sudo -k" ends the current sudo timeout | 05:50 |
| clueless2 | and it split into 6 or 7 different files using xa* and so far | 05:51 |
| michael | grendal_prime, ignoring unknon interface etho0=eth0 | 05:51 |
| Billiard | clueless2: why did you rm them then? | 05:51 |
| grendal_prime | right | 05:51 |
| scunizi | Brandon: and you're attempting the harder stuff.. if you have enough ram you should be able to download and install in the livecd boot. | 05:51 |
| michael | maco, nope :( | 05:51 |
| grendal_prime | ok now this on one line with an enter after it... | 05:51 |

| scunizi | Brandon: so.. if it's installed isn't it part of it? | 05:51 |
| genii | grendal_prime: Might need sudo with that if you want to save the changes | 05:52 |

| === richard is now known as Guest54784 | ||
| Paddy_NI | cheeko, no problem.. keryx is a life saver :) | 05:52 |
| grendal_prime | nano = easy editor. the file is the config file for your interfaces that come up on boot. sounds like you are familiar with network manager wich only runs in usner space. | 05:52 |
| cheeko | Paddy_NI: thts true i can see tht | 05:52 |
| Brandon | scunizi: if I installed it after booting from the live cd, it doesn't meet my requirements. | 05:53 |

| perith | michael: why? | 05:57 |
| michael | perith, install on an offline machine | 05:58 |

| Billiard | clueless2: sorry not exactly sure, somewhere in the menu | 05:58 |
| grendal_prime | what? | 05:58 |
| grendal_prime | what package? | 05:58 |

| amikrop | lstarnes: 3.5.5 | 06:16 |
| lstarnes | amikrop: what happens for you? | 06:16 |
| amikrop | and them close the Preferences box | 06:17 |
| amikrop | and open it again | 06:17 |
| meowbuntu | mine fdesktop looks like a typo | 06:17 |
| amikrop | and see if the change was remembered | 06:17 |
| amikrop | lstarnes: what I described. it doesn't get remembered :S | 06:17 |

| cheeko | guys please how can i play windows games in ubuntu | 06:17 |
| lstarnes | amikrop: I had it set to use custom settings and changed it to remember everything, but it didn't remember it | 06:18 |
| lstarnes | amikrop: file a bug report | 06:18 |
| jozefk | in my ubuntu 9.10 the keyboard shortcuts for terminal are different than i use to have with some other distro and KDE | 06:18 |
| leaf-sheep | cheeko: Wine, VirtualBox, or DualBoot. | 06:18 |
| Billiard | cheeko you can use wine, not all windows programs run perfectly check the wine appdb | 06:18 |
| lstarnes | amikrop: I'll add a comment saying that I had the same issue | 06:18 |
| R1_ | Does anybody have Windows 7 here and is currently able to remote desktop from ubuntu to windows 7??? | 06:18 |
| meowbuntu | cheeko, have you installed wine | 06:18 |
| khaladu_kj | does anyone have solution for my problem?? | 06:18 |
| jozefk | Ctrl+Shift+N should be new tab but it's not | 06:18 |
| cheeko | meowbuntu: yes | 06:18 |
| jozefk | it's new window | 06:18 |
| cheeko | but not useful | 06:18 |
| lstarnes | khaladu_kj: what output do you get from the command uname -m ? | 06:19 |
| Billiard | cheeko: not useful? | 06:19 |
| jozefk | and Shift+Left Shift+Right doesn't move from one to another Tab | 06:19 |
| Billiard | khaladu_kj: you are running a 32 bit operating system? | 06:19 |
| cheeko | Billiard: yes games dont work fine | 06:19 |
| amikrop | lstarnes: OK | 06:19 |
| khaladu_kj | lstarnes: i686 | 06:19 |
| jozefk | how can I change that shortcuts? | 06:19 |
| bodi | can someone help with this | 06:20 |
| khaladu_kj | Billiard: yes | 06:20 |
| lstarnes | khaladu_kj: you have the 32-bit version | 06:20 |
| Billiard | khaladu_kj: there is a max ram limit, and that is it | 06:20 |
| cheeko | Billiard: any other | 06:20 |
| lstarnes | khaladu_kj: you should probbaly install the 64-bit (amd64) version of ubuntu | 06:20 |
| mine | is that wubi only can be runned in windows | 06:20 |
| khaladu_kj | lstarnes, Billiard: i thought its 4 gb for 32 bit os! | 06:20 |
| lstarnes | khaladu_kj: it might be less | 06:20 |
| Billiard | cheeko: virtualbox, but you wont get good video performance, you could try the wine beta repository also, i found it works better | 06:20 |
| Draake | how come when i change the /etc/motd .. it is auto changed right back to what it was? | 06:20 |
| lstarnes | Draake: edit /etc/motd.tail | 06:21 |
| Draake | ahhh | 06:21 |
| khaladu_kj | I will try 64 bit ubuntu .. then | 06:21 |
| khaladu_kj | thanx .. :) | 06:21 |
| chemjeff | Hi all, I would like to swap two partitions on my hard drive, the /opt and the /tmp partitions, how can I do that? | 06:21 |
| Billiard | khaladu_kj: its its 4GB minus some because it needs some of the address space for other stuff | 06:21 |
| lstarnes | amikrop: once you file it, give me a link to it | 06:21 |
| leaf-sheep | khaladu_kj: You could install the server kernel. That would works too. | 06:21 |
| amikrop | lstarnes: sure | 06:21 |
| amikrop | lstarnes: hmm, some developer told me not to file a bug report | 06:22 |
| Billiard | khaladu_kj: yea you could try the pae kernel, but if you have a 64 bit cpu i would use 64 bit os | 06:22 |
| meowbuntu | cheeko, wine can only run simple windows apps. there is another emulator (cant remember the name) but i think you have to pay for it | 06:22 |
| meowbuntu | ^ hold on | 06:22 |
| cheeko | Billiard: wht leaf-sheep was telling abt dual boot | 06:22 |
| greezmunkey | man this OS rocks, I didn't even _need_ to install a swap partition! | 06:22 |
| nikhil_ | meowbuntu: cedega | 06:22 |
| IdleOne | meowbuntu: cedega | 06:22 |
| Billiard | cheeko: installing windows on another partition | 06:22 |
| amikrop | lstarnes: I will keep you up to date | 06:22 |
| nikhil_ | IdleOne: ;) | 06:22 |
| khaladu_kj | leaf-sheep: what will server kernel do..? | 06:23 |
| leaf-sheep | cheeko: When you start up the computer, you have the option to start Ubuntu or to start Windows 7. That's dual boot. | 06:23 |
| Billiard | khaladu_kj: server kernel has pae, its like a hack to use more ram | 06:23 |
| Draake | how do i take off "0 packages can be updated" ...... etc as well on the MOTD? | 06:23 |
| meowbuntu | cheeko, take a look at cedega http://linux.about.com/gi/o.htm?zi=1/XJ&zTi=1&sdn=linux&cdn=compute&tm=13&f=00&su=p284.9.336.ip_p504.1.336.ip_&tt=2&bt=1&bts=1&zu=https%3A//wiki.ubuntu.com/Cedega | 06:24 |
| cheeko | leaf-sheep: got it | 06:24 |
| lstarnes | khaladu_kj: the server kernel has some options tailored for use in webservers | 06:24 |
| meowbuntu | cheeko, what game you looking to play | 06:24 |
| lstarnes | khaladu_kj: for some things, like many desktop applications, there may be decreases in performance | 06:24 |
| cheeko | transfromers | 06:24 |
| mine | what is the difference between ubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-dvd | 06:24 |
| meowbuntu | cheeko, the latest game | 06:24 |
| khaladu_kj | Billiard: that seems ideal ... but .. it wont affect.. any other functionality right? | 06:25 |
| lstarnes | khaladu_kj: however, server applications will have better performance | 06:25 |
| cheeko | so wud it work | 06:25 |
| chemjeff | Hi all, I would like to swap two partitions on my hard drive, the /opt and the /tmp partitions, how can I do that? | 06:25 |
| cheeko | meowbuntu: and wht abt virtualbox | 06:25 |
| lstarnes | cheeko: change their mount points in /etc/fstab | 06:25 |
| leaf-sheep | khaladu_kj: http://tinyurl.com/8k4run and http://tinyurl.com/yee6r4w -- Using native amd64 would be the better solution but if you don't want to reinstall and go amd64 at the moment, then use server pae kernel. | 06:25 |
| lstarnes | cheeko: virtualbox requires you to install windows in it | 06:25 |
| chemjeff | lstarnes, I did that but then when I rebooted I got Gnome configuration file errors | 06:26 |
| meowbuntu | cheeko, not sure. wine is a long shot. for latest games. try the link to cedega i posted ^ | 06:26 |
| khaladu_kj | leaf-sheep : im using core2duo | 06:26 |
| cheeko | lstarnes: but tht wud make botht os slow | 06:26 |
| Draake | Speaking of emulators.. what would be best for "WoW"? | 06:26 |
| leaf-sheep | mine: Multiple languages in Ubuntu DVD. | 06:26 |
| lstarnes | cheeko: not necessarily | 06:26 |
| Billiard | chemjeff: do have have data on them? | 06:26 |
| lstarnes | cheeko: virtualbox is usually very fast | 06:26 |
| chemjeff | Billiard, there's no data on the /opt partition, and no permanent data on the /tmp partition | 06:26 |
| khaladu_kj | leaf-sheep: i doubt amd64 will work on core2duo .. fine.. will it? | 06:26 |
| meowbuntu | cheeko, you need minimum of 1 gig 2 prefered for vbox | 06:26 |
| chemjeff | Billiard, just whatever is used for the current session | 06:27 |
| cheeko | lstarnes: but i have very less ram thts the prob | 06:27 |
| lstarnes | khaladu_kj: it will | 06:27 |
| Billiard | chemjeff: just swap the fstab mount mounts | 06:27 |
| Billiard | mount ponts* | 06:27 |
| lstarnes | khaladu_kj: it will work on most 64-bit intel-like processirs | 06:27 |
| Billiard | points* jeeze sorry | 06:27 |
| chemjeff | Billiard, I did that but I get Gnome configuration file errors | 06:27 |
| leaf-sheep | khaladu_kj: That is fine. If your computer have 64bit processor, then it should work. This will be useful if you're doing heavy processing like DVD encoding or video editting or audio editting, etc. | 06:27 |
| chemjeff | Billiard, when I restart | 06:27 |
| meowbuntu | cheeko, do you have a copy of windows handy | 06:27 |
| Billiard | chemjeff: errors? | 06:27 |
| leaf-sheep | khaladu_kj: Take the advantage of your hardware. ;) | 06:27 |
| cheeko | meowbuntu: yes | 06:27 |
| khaladu_kj | lstranes: cool... yea.. makes sense | 06:28 |
| chemjeff | Billiard, yes - I couldn't log in to a Gnome session | 06:28 |
| khaladu_kj | leaf-sheep: agreed.. :D | 06:28 |
| Billiard | Draake: wow runs well in wine | 06:28 |
| Billiard | chemjeff: what was the error | 06:28 |
| Alan502 | Does anyone recommend a download manager other than flash got or Kget for kubuntu? | 06:28 |
| meowbuntu | cheeko, then look up how to dual boot windows(xp/vista) and ubuntu 9.10 | 06:28 |
| Draake | Billiard, i tried wine 1.2 and it wouldn't complete the installation it downloaded up to 95% and froze.. boy was i mad! | 06:28 |
| chemjeff | Billiard, I don't remember precisely, but I know it said that something failed a sanity check and exited with error 256 | 06:29 |
| Billiard | Draake: you added the wine beta repository? | 06:29 |
| Draake | i let the package install everything.. it was like 7 packages | 06:29 |
| Billiard | chemjeff: and putting the partitions back removes the error? | 06:29 |
| chemjeff | Billiard, yes | 06:29 |
| Billiard | Draake: try adding the wine beta repository | 06:29 |
| cheeko | meowbuntu: wen i keep windows as host orerating system ubuntu gives aprob | 06:29 |
| cheeko | meowbuntu: init too long | 06:30 |
| Billiard | Draake: also the message of the day is setup using files in /etc/update-motd.d if you still were wondering | 06:30 |
| Draake | Billiard, i let the package install everything.. it was like 7 packages | 06:30 |

| cheeko | leaf-sheep: not at all | 06:34 |

| cheeko | meowbuntu: i just found win4lin | 06:38 |
| cheeko | so can i apt-get win4lin | 06:38 |
| Snausages | Draake: I just plug them in and they appear in the file browser | 06:39 |
| Snausages | Draake: if one didn't, I'd guess that you haven't got filesystem support installed for it | 06:39 |
| Draake | Snausages, well mine isn't working out that way :( | 06:39 |
| Zsoci | hi there!is it possible to run ./configure with aptitude?is it any way to install from source to autoinstall dependencies? | 06:39 |
| Snausages | Draake: is it spinning up? | 06:39 |
| Billiard | Draake: does it show up in the places menu? | 06:39 |
| Draake | Snausages, how do i go about getting that installed? | 06:40 |
| Draake | Billiard, no it sure doesn't | 06:40 |
| Draake | Snausages, it lights up.. but i can't feel it spinning.. | 06:40 |
| Billiard | cheeko: you wont be able to run games well in win4lin probably, if thats what you are trying to do | 06:40 |
| mine | what do you mean | 06:40 |
| Zsoci | i would like to install from source and want to make ./configure easyer. | 06:40 |
| Draake | Snausages, actually yes it spins | 06:41 |
| Snausages | Draake: it might be power starved- USB drives are finicky like that. maybe try it on another port, or on a powered hub | 06:41 |
| Zsoci | to autoinstall all dependencies | 06:41 |
| meowbuntu | cheeko, thats another option just remember that windows will not run 100% afficient installed like that. native dual boot is best | 06:41 |
| Draake | Snausages, Billiard, wow. it worked this time? i swear i been trying for like 3 days | 06:41 |

| Zsoci | i don't think so if it is a packege.I downloaded and extracted the source.now what i have to do is to type ./configure,but it is so frustrating to check manually all the dependencies | 06:45 |
| Billiard | Draake: it will probabaly install to ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files | 06:45 |
| Draake | Billiard, i checked there :-\ | 06:45 |
| Billiard | daredevilthere: sorry idk | 06:45 |
| Billiard | Zsoci: is it a package that is also available in the package manager? | 06:46 |
| Billiard | Draake: are your drives setup in the wine config? | 06:47 |

| mine | do you got it | 06:51 |
| Billiard | mine i would think you could extract the squashfs on the cd onto the flash drive then chroot into it and setup the boot loader, but im not 100% sure | 06:51 |
| Zsoci | didn't found any in the package manager nor in aptitude.then I downloaded a .dep from somewhere,but it is out of date.so got compatibility problems.it is better to install from source the latest version | 06:51 |
| Billiard | mine or usb disk, if its not a flash drive | 06:51 |
| Arkade | hi, how do i get 64 bit flash going? | 06:51 |
| Zsoci | sorry not .dep .deb | 06:51 |
| Billiard | Arkade: i have no probs | 06:51 |
| mine | chroot where | 06:51 |
| Billiard | Zsoci: add the universe repositorie, then it will be in the package manager | 06:52 |
| mine | do i need reboot | 06:52 |
| Billiard | mine to do what? | 06:52 |
| kizzo | Anyone know where in gconf-editor one would change the option of showing your /home/username directory in the GNOME desktop? | 06:52 |
| Zsoci | where can I find universe repo? | 06:52 |
| mine | let try it first | 06:52 |
| Billiard | kizzo: gnome > desktop maybe, sorry idk | 06:52 |
| kizzo | It's cool. | 06:53 |
| Billiard | Zsoci: administration > software sources i think | 06:53 |
| kizzo | I found it: i believe it's /apps/nautilus/preferences/desktop_is_home_dir | 06:53 |
| Billiard | kizzo: no that doesnt sound right | 06:53 |
| kizzo | If set to true, then Nautilus will use the user's home folder as the desktop. If it is false, then it will use ~/Desktop as the desktop | 06:54 |
| meowbuntu | I am looking for a small, extensive, full featured, powerful media player. | 06:54 |
| kizzo | ..is the description by it. | 06:54 |
| Billiard | kizzo: hold on ill load up a live cd, in the same place there is options for all the icons on the desktop | 06:54 |
| Billiard | kizzo: can you just delete home from your desktop? | 06:54 |
| Billiard | meowbuntu: maybe you will like vlc | 06:54 |
| bodi | ok here's what i did i have os windows vista /// ran backtrack 4 setup dual boot //everything went well until reboot i rebooted typed sudo su than fix- spash // than y and y again now just boots up to backtrack no windows | 06:55 |
| Billiard | bodi: this is ubuntu support | 06:55 |
| === lipsinV21 is now known as lipsinV2 | ||
| bodi | ok where do i go ? | 06:55 |
| Rajasun | meowbuntu: https://launchpad.net/~stemp/+archive/xfce | 06:55 |
| furuno | bodi: #windows ? | 06:55 |
| Billiard | bodi: backtrack channel? | 06:56 |
| Ubuntu_user | is there a xubuntu netbook edition? | 06:56 |
| bodi | no i installed backtrack | 06:56 |
| meowbuntu | Billiard, vlc is ok i guess. what i am having trouble with is media keeps playing ok for a few minuts then goes funny | 06:56 |
| furuno | Ubuntu_user: not yet | 06:56 |
| Billiard | meowbuntu: fuzzy? | 06:56 |
| Billiard | Ubuntu_user: you can install xfce after you install ubuntu | 06:56 |
| furuno | Ubuntu_user: if you want lighweight, try installing LXDE as the desktop environment | 06:56 |
| Fbian | g00dmornig! | 06:57 |
| furuno | Ubuntu_user: or Openbox | 06:57 |
| bodi | is there a backtrack channel | 06:57 |
| jcp | Is there an ubuntu equivalent to Windows's Resource Monitor? | 06:57 |
| bodi | ? | 06:57 |
| meowbuntu | Billiard, yea fuzzy, skippy, jumpy or just goes silent and speeds up | 06:57 |
| Billiard | bodi: i think so | 06:57 |
| Zsoci | you are right,it is in the repo,but it is out of date what can I get | 06:57 |
| furuno | jcp: Gnome System Monitor? | 06:57 |
| furuno | jcp: or various terminal command | 06:57 |
| leaf-sheep | bodi: #remote-exploit | 06:57 |
| Zsoci | 2008 and what I need is 2009 :( | 06:57 |
| jcp | I know about System Monitor. Resource monitor in Windows provides information on hard disk usage too, such as which files are being accessed by which processes and how much data they have read in the past minute or so. I can't find a place in System Monitor that does that. | 06:58 |
| Finnish | How do I enable H.264-export in Kdenlive | 06:58 |
| jcp | furuno: ^ | 06:58 |
| Billiard | Zsoci: try the apt-get build-deb if you want what you need to build it yourself | 06:58 |
| Ubuntu_user | i know i can install xfce, but can i also change the boot up screen? | 06:58 |
| indus | hi | 06:58 |
| selvam | hai | 06:58 |
| bodi | do they have live such as this? | 06:58 |
| santhosh | hello | 06:58 |
| Billiard | Ubuntu_user: you should be able to yes | 06:58 |
| santhosh | how are u man | 06:58 |
| bazhang | bodi, #remote-exploit for bt | 06:58 |
| jcp | and I have a program I wrote that is causing the processor's iowait usage (reported by top) to go up to around 95%, but I can't figure out what my program is accessing that would cause it to go up that much | 06:58 |
| selvam | with your blessing i'm good | 06:58 |
| alexstre^ | I just booted 9.10 from the live cd on an iMac G5 and right after the boot a pop up showed property drivers to install for my wireless to work, which I enabled and everything was fine. I then completed the install and reboot in the "real, installed" ubuntu and the pop up never showed up... Anyone knows how I can enable those drivers manually? | 06:59 |
| santhosh | dodda math | 06:59 |
| cheeko | init too long is the message i get it tried installing ubuntu in my pc | 06:59 |
| Zsoci | nothing happens | 06:59 |
| Rajasun | Ubuntu_user: As far as I can recall, no. There are netbook remixes/editions for Ubuntu and Kubuntu yes but not that I know of for Xubuntu. Not sure if one is the pipeline either. Check with the folks in #xubuntu perhaps. | 06:59 |
| Ubuntu_user | alexstre^, Ubuntu works better on regular hardware rather than apple | 06:59 |
| furuno | jcp: actually you can see open file and memory maps from System Monitor, right click on the process | 06:59 |
| selvam | amela | 06:59 |
| meowbuntu | jcp took like 2 sece to find this on google for you. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=672682 | 06:59 |

| santhosh | how is this chat | 06:59 |
| Zsoci | Failed to find libcurses or libncurses. Install them or disable building the Kismet client with --disable-client. Disabling the client is probably not something you want to do normally. | 06:59 |
| selvam | it's ok | 06:59 |
| Zsoci | when I hit ./configure | 06:59 |
| bodi | yes i know remote exploit is bt but i dont see live help | 06:59 |

| ubottu | selvam santhosh: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 07:00 |
| Billiard | Zsoci: did you try what i suggested? | 07:00 |
| jcp | meowbuntu: is it possible to tell how much it's read/written to those files? | 07:00 |
| alexstre^ | Ubuntu_user: I know that already. but it works perfectly from the live cd. not so well once it's installed though... which is a bit weird | 07:00 |
| meowbuntu | jcp, i just googles what you asked "ubuntu equivalent to Windows Resource Monitor" | 07:00 |
| cheeko | selvam: try some ims | 07:00 |
| jcp | yeah, I've been doing the same thing | 07:00 |
| meowbuntu | jcp no idea sorry | 07:00 |
| jcp | np | 07:00 |
| jcp | thanks anyway | 07:00 |
| Ubuntu_user | alexstre^, also no flash | 07:00 |
| jcp | Actually, one more question. Is it possible to monitor a remote system with Resource Monitor? | 07:01 |
| meowbuntu | jcp, have you tested crunchbang os | 07:01 |
| Zsoci | apt-get build-deb and what would be the next command?sorry,I'm a newbie for stuff like this | 07:01 |
| jcp | I've never heard of ti | 07:01 |
| jcp | (it | 07:01 |
| jcp | grr, *it | 07:01 |
| furuno | jcp: Crunchbang Linux, it ubuntu based with Openbox desktop | 07:01 |
| meowbuntu | jcp, ok look into conky | 07:02 |
| jcp | ah, cool | 07:02 |
| Billiard | Zsoci: i said "sudo apt-get build-dep kismet" | 07:02 |
| meowbuntu | jcp, http://conky.sourceforge.net/ | 07:02 |
| Zsoci | thank you | 07:02 |
| jcp | yeah, just saw it on Synaptic | 07:02 |
| jcp | I'll try that and see how it goes | 07:02 |
| meowbuntu | jcow, conky is a desktop display for displaying system info and other stuff. | 07:03 |
| Zsoci | E: build-deb illegal command | 07:03 |
| meowbuntu | ^ jcp | 07:03 |
| Billiard | kizzo: did you find the setting? i just found it | 07:03 |
| meowbuntu | jcp, , conky is a desktop display for displaying system info and other stuff. | 07:03 |
| jcp | ok | 07:03 |
| lstarnes | Zsoci: build-dep, not build-deb | 07:03 |

| justin_ | Hey, I need help. | 07:04 |
| furuno | !ask | justin_ | 07:04 |
| ubottu | justin_: 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. :-) | 07:04 |
| meowbuntu | jcp, crunchbang uses it by default. | 07:04 |
| meowbuntu | !crunchbang | 07:04 |
| ubottu | There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mintsupport), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), crunchbang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #remote-exploit) | 07:04 |

| Celroc | Hey all, all of a sudden (maybe it was after an update) my GRUB changed to be quite different (I had it somewhat customized), and I can't seem to get it back to normal. My grub.conf still has all of the entries | 07:20 |
| furuno | Draake: Rhythmbox can do that | 07:20 |
| Draake | furuno, nice! | 07:20 |
| boomernang | Hi, i'm using ubuntu 9.10 with a nvidia 9800GTX video card(closed drivers) - I had a 21" cheap lcd screen previously, and have now plugged in a 23" lcd tv via DVI. Booted up ubuntu and works flawlessly(res 1920x1080) except, i get like "ripples" or "cuts" on my screen when im watching a movie on vlc/mediaplayer. I have tried different video outputs and not helping at all. Could this be a hsync/vsync issue since my xorg.conf was created on another | 07:20 |
| boomernang | screen? | 07:20 |
| meowbuntu | Billiard, furuno any ideas on my music media faults | 07:20 |
| furuno | Draake: or you might want to take a look at Songbird at getsondbird.com | 07:20 |
| furuno | Draake: * getsongbird.com | 07:20 |
| Billiard | meowbuntu: idk | 07:20 |
| Draake | im never going back to winblows | 07:21 |
| indus | boomernang: check the xorg settings for the monitor entries | 07:21 |
| meowbuntu | furuno, i was meaning that after i updated could that cause my media to stop playing properly | 07:21 |
| furuno | can anyone give me an "intact" /etc/apt/sources.list please? My Linux Mint 8 only list the archive.ubuntu.com which is slow :/ | 07:21 |

| kraitos | i remove xubuntu-desktop and now ubuntu is slower, can anyone help? | 07:22 |
| meowbuntu | furuno, you need to go tp the linux mint irc channel on sportchat | 07:23 |
| boomernang | indus, here is my xorg.conf created by the command 'sudo Xorg :1 -configure' - http://pastebin.com/d46f56c81 | 07:23 |

| furuno | yeah I know that :/ | 07:23 |
| Flannel | furuno: Having it full of archive.ubuntu.com *is* an "intact" sources.list | 07:23 |
| boomernang | indus, it seems to be all automated even in the conf these days :( | 07:23 |
| kraitos | gnome, the original desktop, furuno | 07:23 |
| meowbuntu | furuno, mint is not supported here | 07:23 |
| bullgard | [Thunderbird 2.0.0.23] Addressbook > Search > 'Dropdown list' lists as the first two entries 'Name or Email' and 'Category'. The Edit cards do not have a 'Category' field. What does 'Category' correspond to in the Edit card entries? | 07:23 |
| Billiard | huneph_: can you pastebin the nautilus error? | 07:23 |
| furuno | kraitos: maybe you want to try lxde instead | 07:23 |
| indus | boomernang: use the nvidia settigns tool to adjust monitor settings | 07:24 |
| Zsoci | thank you so much!now I solved everything :) | 07:24 |
| kraitos | furuno, also when i go to log in my splash image is tan orange color. | 07:24 |
| meowbuntu | furuno, are you using ubuntu or mint atm | 07:24 |
| furuno | kraitos: yes it's the default ubuntu brown | 07:24 |
| furuno | meowbuntu: I'm on mint | 07:24 |
| Flannel | meowbuntu: Please stop. | 07:24 |
| furuno | well nvm I find them myself :/ | 07:24 |
| kraitos | furuno, i removed xfce because ubuntu was being slow in log in. | 07:24 |
| meowbuntu | then go to mint chanel for mint questions i got kicked out of here for doing that the other day | 07:24 |
| meowbuntu | ^ furuno | 07:25 |
| Kage_Jittai | hello cheeko is having a issue loading init after he makes a selection from the grub menu. Is it possible he is passing to many arguements to init? The error message is "init too long" | 07:25 |
| furuno | kraitos: why you remove xfce? xfce is your desktop... | 07:25 |
| meowbuntu | Flannel, stop what exactly | 07:25 |
| kraitos | furuno, but i used to have the 9.10 screen splash how do i put it back to that. | 07:25 |
| mneptok | meowbuntu: the point was made with the original triggering of the factoid by jussi01. | 07:25 |
| indus | meowbuntu: oversight | 07:25 |
| boomernang | indus, I would have no idea what to change. However, there is a new tab in there called DFP-0 (LG M2362D) which is my tv. This "force GPU scaling" is ticked. Sus. | 07:25 |
| indus | meowbuntu: nvm it | 07:25 |
| Ubuntu_user | where can i find eeexubuntu? | 07:25 |
| furuno | kraitos, try reinstalling xfce bt installing "xubuntu-desktop" | 07:25 |
| zetheroo | ok well I followed the Ubuntu documentation to reinstall grub and its not working! | 07:25 |
| indus | boomernang: hmm gpu scaling? | 07:25 |
| meowbuntu | indus, what is that | 07:25 |
| Flannel | furuno: You're looking for additional mirrors. See !mirrors (/msg ubottu mirrors) | 07:26 |
| indus | meowbuntu: ask Flannel | 07:26 |
| furuno | Flannel: oh ty :) | 07:26 |
| mine | i have down some package for update ,how to make it search in the dir before search on line | 07:26 |
| furuno | !mirrors | 07:26 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mirrors - PLEASE use the !torrents to download !Karmic, and help keeping the servers' load low! | 07:26 |
| kraitos | furuno, sorry for the confusion. i install xubuntu-desktop ontop of ubuntu so i could use xfce. and i did like it because it was slower starting up and shutingdown. | 07:26 |
| boomernang | indus, force gpu scaling is ticked and gpu scaling is "stretched". the scaling method options are "stretched/centered/aspect ratio" Thats all I can change in that tab. I will give aspect ratio a go. | 07:26 |
| furuno | kraitos: how about LXDE? | 07:26 |
| zetheroo | grub-setup is giving me warnings and telling me that what I am doing is not a good idea :) ha | 07:27 |
| indus | boomernang: ! YES | 07:27 |
| echotone | does anybody know why i wouldnt be able to install 9.10 after installing windows 7 and trying a clean install of ubuntu? | 07:27 |
| kraitos | furuno, what exactly is LXDE? | 07:27 |
| indus | boomernang: always aspect ratio is better i suppose | 07:27 |
| furuno | kraitos: a lightweight desktop environment | 07:27 |
| Billiard | echotone: whats stopping you? | 07:27 |
| indus | boomernang: tried xv output in player too | 07:27 |
| zetheroo | this is why some documentation is a headache to follow ... its not complete ... | 07:27 |
| meowbuntu | !facts | 07:27 |
| echotone | i have no clue. it doesnt get past letting me select whether to install or run live. either one gives me a black screen forever | 07:27 |
| Flannel | echotone: Try using the alternate CD to install | 07:28 |
| furuno | echotone: are you burn the CD correctly? | 07:28 |
| Billiard | echotone: check the cd for defects? | 07:28 |
| echotone | i am using it right now | 07:28 |
| kraitos | furuno, i just want gnome the way i had it, because i spend a lot of time setting it up like i wanted it. | 07:28 |
| Billiard | echotone: check the md5 | 07:28 |

| huneph | I'm having nautilus problems anyone? | 07:28 |
| kraitos | furuno, i just want gnome the way i had it, because i spend a lot of time setting it up like i wanted it. | 07:28 |
| Billiard | echotone: you just said you cant even boot the cd | 07:28 |
| * meowbuntu will leave and come back if he cant get help atm | 07:29 | |
| Flannel | echotone: That's a problem with X in the live environment. You could spend time diagnosing/fixing it, or you could just download and install with the alternate CD. | 07:29 |
| echotone | it doesnt boot a regular cd. so i made an alternate and it boots and installs but the os doesnt boot | 07:29 |
| Billiard | echotone: did you install the boot loader to the mbr? | 07:29 |
| === mike is now known as Guest52968 | ||

| Billiard | echotone: the alternate cd you have to do it | 07:29 |
| === Onyx_ is now known as Guest48076 | ||
| mneptok | meowbuntu: what are the issues, exactly? | 07:30 |
| huneph | anyone know what causes nautilus to not open? | 07:30 |
| Flannel | echotone: What do you mean by "doesn't boot" after you've installed via the alternate CD? | 07:30 |
| huneph | getting error 4787 | 07:30 |
| Flannel | echotone: Does it get to GRUB? | 07:30 |
| cheeko | Flannel: it says init too long | 07:30 |
| furuno | huneph: try reinstall nautilus? remove it with "sudo apt-get autoremove --purge nautilus" | 07:30 |
| echotone | yes. i run the installer from the alternate cd and then reboot the comp. it starts the os and i get the ubuntu logo...but then it switches to black and i cant do anything. | 07:31 |
| echotone | billiard.. how do i do that? | 07:31 |
| kraitos | can anyone help me with my problem? | 07:31 |
| Tina- | anyone know where i can find the source of the netbook-launcher (unr) , i want to compile it for my non ubuntu linux | 07:31 |
| Flannel | echotone: Alright, once you're at the black screen, can you hit ctrl-alt-f1 to switch to a terminal? | 07:31 |
| cheeko | Flannel: u have any idea | 07:31 |
| echotone | i am installing again right now. but i didnt try. | 07:31 |
| echotone | i doubt it tho | 07:31 |
| Flannel | echotone: Once it does, try it. You've got X problems apparently | 07:31 |
| boomernang | indus, damn man. aspect-ratio didn't change a thing. Neither did unticking 'force gpu scale'. | 07:32 |
| zetheroo1 | here is the output of me trying to reinstall grub to /dev/sda2 http://pastebin.com/m47c348dc | 07:32 |
| echotone | how would i go about fixing x problems? | 07:32 |
| Billiard | echotone: there is an option when installing via the alternate cd, you should use the desktop cd if you are a novice | 07:32 |
| Flannel | Billiard: That's not relevant to the problems he's having at all. | 07:32 |
| Tina- | zetheroo1: why not set it to mbr? | 07:32 |
| echotone | the desktop cd wont boot. thats why i made the alternate cd in the first place | 07:32 |
| zetheroo1 | Tina-: I have no idea ... I am just following the Ubuntu Documentation on the topic | 07:33 |
| Flannel | echotone: You probably have to reconfigure it or something, I'm not up on the new X stuff, so I unfortunately can't help you. Someone else here should be able to | 07:33 |
| echotone | thanks anyways flannel. i'll keep working on it | 07:33 |
| zetheroo1 | !grub | 07:33 |
| Tina- | it is a bad idea to do thing when you have no idea :o | 07:33 |
| Billiard | Flannel: echotone: sorry, when i told him about the boot loader he made it sound like it still booted win 7 and didnt get grub | 07:33 |
| furuno | echotone: this might help : http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xorg, it has quite nice info | 07:33 |

| bgoldsmith | greetings - HP Minitower 7500 core2duo, trying to install ubuntu server 9.10 64bit with RAID 1 on two identical 500GB drives. (first time installing RAID) I now have a box that does not boot OR go into the BIOS setup or boot menu, and does not boot from the installer USB drive.

| tstebut | hello | 07:55 |
| _Agent86_ | I just need a simple library for reliable serial comms, to send/receive strings, without having to understand every little in and out to get it done | 07:55 |
| meowbuntu | Draake, show us a screenshot of your problem then | 07:55 |
| geirha | Draake: Mostly, the only difference is that the UNR has that desktop layout more suited for very small screens. | 07:55 |
| justin_ | How do I check and see if a network device has proper drivers installed? | 07:55 |
| tstebut | I have an ubuntu server karmic and a customized kernel | 07:55 |
| Draake | leaf-sheep, but, anything is different as in default apps? or is it just the X that is different? | 07:55 |
| tstebut | but I'm missing something | 07:56 |
| leaf-sheep | Draake: Revamped user interfaces, mostly. | 07:56 |
| _Agent86_ | I've tried reverse-engineering tiny serial, tried and failed to understand minicom's source so I could do what it does, I'm just about out of ideas | 07:56 |
| suwro | anyone know where seahorse save the passwords? I have to copy all my old passwords to the new account. | 07:57 |
| _Agent86_ | so now trying CSSL | 07:57 |
| _Agent86_ | and can't get it to install. | 07:57 |
| Draake | ill brb, i just installed a desktop. im going to reboot | 07:57 |
| _Agent86_ | I know linux isn't meant to be easy and user-friendly but people have been doing this sort of thing for over two decades, I was expecting it to be the least of my problems... | 07:58 |
| tstebut | My uname -r gives : 2.6.31.5-grsec-xxxx-grs-ipv4-64, whereas grub menu.lst have : kernel/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-16-server....and I have only one dir in /lib/modules, that is : 2.6.31-16-server | 07:59 |
| tstebut | What is my problem ? | 08:00 |
| suwro | noody use seahorse to save passwords? | 08:00 |
| ianyikos | i just tried to compile a program, and it said "failed to build debian package", but the program still works. what does that mean? | 08:00 |
| Flannel | _Agent86_: You need a terminal to your serial port? or what? | 08:00 |
| suwro | ianyikos: it means you failed to make .deb package | 08:00 |
| justin_ | I should have never updated to 8.10.... | 08:01 |
| justin_ | It's always something stupid. | 08:01 |
| ianyikos | can i still do that without damaging the program? | 08:01 |
| justin_ | Wireless worked fine before... | 08:01 |
| justin_ | Now it sucks, and I can't just move that computer. | 08:02 |
| tstebut | nobody ? | 08:02 |
| bgoldsmith | greetings channel, has anyone been in a situation where you can enter neither the BIOS setup or the boot menu and get a blank screen with E2 written on it? | 08:02 |
| suwro | ianyikos: you can but it's not the debian way, you need to install something to be able to make .deb packages, I can't remember the package name... | 08:02 |

| Flannel | _Agent86_: Ah, you'll just open the device (/dev/ttyS#) like any other file | 08:04 |
| mylisto2 | hey all | 08:05 |
| _Agent86_ | I can access it from minicom just fine, but when I use tiny serial, opening the first time gives perfect read/write, but after exit, can't connect again to that device (no hangup, I think). | 08:05 |
| === Mud is now known as Guest70307 | ||
| _Agent86_ | I don't have that problem with minicom, so its obviously doing something different. | 08:05 |
| ianyikos | would it be dh-make-perl? i think the program uses perl, but i'm not sure. | 08:05 |
| _Agent86_ | So, I need to incorporate that into my program (so not just read/write like file, has to close properly so can be reopened) so if it needs to close and reopen the connection, it can do so. | 08:06 |
| sal_ | justin. what kind of device are you trying to set up? | 08:06 |
| suwro | ianyikos: dh-make, debhelper, devscripts, fakeroot, pbuilder, debian-policy - I think that's it | 08:07 |
| Flannel | _Agent86_: Just closing it 'properly' via the program should be enough (again, just like a file) as far as I'm aware. | 08:07 |
| _Agent86_ | I tried to pick through minicom's source to see what its doing, but no go | 08:07 |
| _Agent86_ | Flannel: Yep, should work, but doesn't. | 08:07 |
| mynewusername | hey all | 08:07 |
| sal_ | a wireless card? internal? pcmcia | 08:07 |

| _Agent86_ | I tried using tcsetattr to manually drop the RTS and DTR pins, no go. | 08:09 |
| tstebut | what uname gives disturbs me ... | 08:09 |
| Celroc | tstebut: I don't know. I'm not very experienced, sorry | 08:09 |
| tstebut | Trying to install vm hipervisor.... | 08:09 |

| Flannel | _Agent86_: Here's a trial program, you should be able to gut it, and see if it works more than once, and then step backwards: http://www.comptechdoc.org/os/linux/programming/c/linux_pgcserial.html | 08:10 |
| _Agent86_ | So, I turn to libcssl to see if it does any better - and can't get it to install. | 08:10 |
| Celroc | Is a person who called him- or her-self Billiard still online? If so, I finally fixed my GRUB problem :-) | 08:10 |
| ReggyLove | i have a lot if pixielisation on videos played in VLC/Totem in Ubuntu 8.04 screenshot-> http://imagebin.ca/img/gtAcMIg.png how can i fix it ? | 08:10 |
| _Agent86_ | Flannel: Tried that earlier today. Returned rubbish on read, not sure why. | 08:10 |
| Celroc | tstebut: What was your question again? I think I may have missed what was happening.... | 08:11 |
| tstebut | My uname -r gives : 2.6.31.5-grsec-xxxx-grs-ipv4-64, whereas grub menu.lst have : kernel/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-16-server....and I have only one dir in /lib/modules, that is : 2.6.31-16-server | 08:12 |
| _Agent86_ | I set it to send "V" and "V\n", which the micro should have responded to with version - returned non-ASCII, so got symbols printed to screen. | 08:12 |
| tstebut | what uname gives disturbs me ... | 08:12 |
| tstebut | *Celroc | 08:12 |
| ianyikos | so i can run checkinstall a second time without damaging anything? | 08:12 |
| Celroc | tstebut: Sorry, I guess I can't help... I don't even know what exactly is wrong lol | 08:12 |
| tstebut | I think uname should give me the kernel name that is in grub menu | 08:13 |
| sidb | hi I need help with network manager and wireless ... I need to know about what 'service' is ... can someone please message me? | 08:13 |
| tstebut | ain't it not ? | 08:13 |
| sidb | What does 'service' field means when connecting to wireless point? | 08:14 |
| _Agent86_ | does the same thing on start and close as tiny serial, so I'm not hopeful...same termios flags, same approach to resetting com port | 08:14 |
| Celroc | tstebut: Oh. Hmm, this is kind of out of my league. Can you still boot up ok and everything? | 08:14 |
| sidb | The 'service' field is showing up in the same dialog when asking for the wireless password, what should I type in it? | 08:14 |

| ardchoille | JPSman: because you ran it as root. Never run a web-enabled app as root. | 08:34 |

| g3ntl3g1ant | ardchoille: sound still not working | 10:08 |
| kane77 | nibbler, and how do I do that? (repair grub) I am using grub 2 btw.. | 10:08 |
| nibbler | Zsoci, ok, that means you want to build an apt-package, which is not trivial. maybe try searching ppa for this program - possibly someone else did the work already (but this would involve trusting this random person) | 10:08 |
| Kartagis | I ssh to my box at home, after a while of idling, the process freezes, so I try closing the terminal tab and it says a process is still running | 10:09 |
| Kartagis | what is this? | 10:09 |
| MyLittleCoder | anyone here know their way around fontconfig? i am trying to enable bitmap fonts under hardy. i found several howtos, but all of them require you to be super user, which i am not. is there some way to accomplish this through ~/.fonts.conf? | 10:09 |
| nibbler | kane77, no idea, usually you mount your normal system and chroot to it, and then use grub-install etc | 10:09 |
| kane77 | nibbler, ok, I'll try to figure something out :) | 10:09 |
| Zsoci | maybe checkinstall would be better.thank you very much. | 10:09 |
| kr_217 | how to load ppolicy.schema in ldap? | 10:10 |

| nibbler | kane77, good luck | 10:10 |
| Kartagis | nibbler, it doesn't drop, it just freezes | 10:10 |
| Zsoci | i mean there are programs that are not so popular,and have to build for myself.but sure the first thing i google on it :) | 10:11 |
| nibbler | Kartagis, yep the drop is not noticed, as the server thinks there is just no packet coming etc | 10:11 |

| oCean_ | quizme: my previous hint was "sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`" | 10:41 |
| quizme | ocean_ envyng. <--- trying to install my nvideo driver. but i think it's already installed? | 10:41 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: runs well in chromium :) | 10:41 |
| quizme | ocean_: yeah but that command doesn't do anything | 10:41 |
| Rajasun | ActionParnsip: on a separate subject, sometimes I can't help but wonder if something is meant to be transitional or dummy and can be removed it jolly well be that i.e. removable and not have aptitude complain about other packaged needing to go if you attempt to have that particular dummy or transitional package purged. There are a few such packages that are like this. One of which happens to be python-gnome2-desktop. Don't beleive me try | 10:41 |
| Rajasun | doing an apt-cache show python-gnome2-desktop and then sudo aptitude --purge remove python-gnome2-desktop only to be told it is required by conduit although aptitude why python-gnome2-desktop admittedly does show up that dependency relationship. | 10:41 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: aah thanks did nt know this :) dec 8 | 10:41 |
| smellynosery | Mewses: I take it you have a cable plugged in? :P What do you get with sudo ifconfig? Does eth0 show up? | 10:41 |

| indus | i will download this flash later today woohoo | 10:43 |
| quizme | indus: google chrome exists for ubuntu? | 10:43 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: the bugs folks report under chromium feed the devolopment of chrome | 10:43 |

| airtonix | quizme, https://launchpad.net/~chromium-daily/+archive/ppa | 10:44 |

| * airtonix rages | 10:44 | |
| quizme | ocean_ i'm going to switch to a 64 bit kernel | 10:44 |
| quizme | so we might as well shelve this discussion for now | 10:44 |
| oCean_ | quizme: indeed :) | 10:45 |
| quizme | ocean_ thanks for your help though! | 10:45 |
| Rajasun | ActionParsnip: already filed #495355. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/conduit/+bug/495355 There are a few more such packages though. dpkg -l|grep transit and dpkg -l|grep dummy will show them up. | 10:45 |
| quizme | can i upgrade to 64 bit from 32 bit with synaptic ? | 10:45 |
| oCean_ | quizme: no problem | 10:45 |
| quizme | or do i need to burn a cd | 10:45 |
| Dna_Boy | I have ubuntu server running, and in it I have folders and user accounts. Then I have a workgroup with XP that connects to ubuntu folders and shares with those user accounts. Now I have a pc here, new, that has windows 7 home premium 64 instaled. Is there a problem to add it to the network? Someon told that it had to have windows 7 professional installed instead of home premium... | 10:45 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: what open source version? | 10:46 |
| indus | the project is called chromium i believe | 10:47 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: the ppa I posted has a daily build and lets users log bugs which feed the daily project and chrome | 10:47 |
| indus | its working great? | 10:47 |
| indus | yesterday i tried the beta and it s so light and smooth with flash | 10:47 |
| indus | surprisingly it uses mozilla code also | 10:47 |
| mob_ | morning all | 10:48 |
| ece | Jjoin #latex | 10:48 |
| ece | sorry | 10:48 |
| ece | :D | 10:48 |
| indus | but i cant figure how to integrate my current gtk theme in it | 10:48 |
| smellynosery | Mewses: Not sure then - It;s saying you have 4 interfaces (is that true?) Try mii-tool on each of them to see which one is your actual interface | 10:48 |
| Rajasun | indus: yeah...flash and google wave do seem to work better in chrome than chromium | 10:48 |
| indus | hmm so chromium is a different browser? | 10:48 |
| smellynosery | Chromium is the open source version | 10:49 |
| Rajasun | indus: i'm not sure...google may be up to something...I could be wrong of course ;) | 10:49 |
| smellynosery | Chrome is Googles version of Chromium, i believe | 10:49 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: its the same, just the open source version | 10:49 |
| smellynosery | brb | 10:50 |
| mvn071 | hi, question: any aufs expert here ? | 10:50 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: i dont think thats true, chrome is based on the open project chromium | 10:50 |
| Mewses | Smellynosery: I think im supposed to have one interface, looks like my actuall interface is eth1: (eth1: negoliated 100basetx-FD flow-control, link ok) | 10:50 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: google just calls it chrome | 10:50 |
| indus | i can call it indus browser | 10:50 |
| Rajasun | smellynosery: It may be the case but somehow both the performance of both flash and google wave are way better in chrome than it is in chromium | 10:50 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: http://code.google.com/chromium/ | 10:50 |
| Dna_Boy | anyone? | 10:51 |

| indus | ActionParsnip: crappy site btw :D | 10:53 |

| indus | your advice comes faster than a rabbit eating a parsnip ActionParsnip :) | 10:58 |
| ActionParsnip | VirusTB: 10Gb for /, 2Gb swap, rest for /home | 10:58 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: i use command line a lot, gets your typing speed up | 10:58 |
| smellynosery | Mewses: What ip is your router? | 10:58 |
| indus | VirusTB: yeah 10 to 15 gb for / and rest for /home and a 2gb swap | 10:58 |
| Mewses | smellynosery: 192.168.2.1 | 10:59 |

| caprowsky | join #drupalcamp-crema | 11:00 |
| indus | VirusTB: yeah always | 11:00 |
| smellynosery | Mewses: Add http://pastie.org/738722 to /etc/network/interfaces then "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" | 11:00 |
| indus | VirusTB: keep swap 2 gb | 11:00 |
| VirusTB | ActionParsnip: indus im not to sure if i can get two partitions :S | 11:00 |
| indus | VirusTB: create it from the free space if you have | 11:00 |
| indus | VirusTB: how much is free space? | 11:00 |
| ActionParsnip | VirusTB: sure you can, you can have LOADS | 11:00 |
| indus | VirusTB: this data partition you say, is tis a windows partition | 11:01 |
| VirusTB | indus: no free space (onlt space i can use is 55GB which i had Ubuntu desktop version on last week (but i deletd that partition in Windows yesterday and mesed up my grub | 11:01 |
| rewati | i have some files in another partition and i want to put them up on my apache server but there is not enough memory in my root directory so i created a soft link in /var/www/ directory of my directory in other partition. now the link is visible on my sever but when the user is trying to acces it it say u dont have permision | 11:01 |
| rewati | can anybody help | 11:01 |
| indus | VirusTB: if you delete a partition you are automatically left with free space of that size | 11:01 |
| Mewses | Smellynosery: Would you like me to remove the 2 lines "auto lo" etc? | 11:01 |
| Rajasun | VirusTB: You may also want a separate /var for that's where your downloaded packages gets cached, also your logs and mails. A figure of 5 or 10 GB for /var should be more than sufficient for someone not running a server. | 11:01 |
| indus | Rajasun: absolute not needed for a home user really | 11:02 |
| VirusTB | Rajasun: o_0 ol this is to much info for me | 11:02 |
| indus | VirusTB: just / and /home and swap | 11:02 |
| VirusTB | indus: ah oki need to be under LIVE mode? | 11:02 |
| indus | VirusTB: yeah you on live cd right? | 11:02 |
| smellynosery | Mewses: Keep those. lo is your local interface (127.0.01) | 11:03 |
| smellynosery | 127.0.0.1 | 11:03 |
| ActionParsnip | rewati: check the permissions of the stuff you are linking to | 11:03 |
| VirusTB | indus: yes (live usb on netbook ) but i went strigh to second option (install netbook remx) if i need to edit the partitions i should "run netbook remix withut any changes to computer) right? | 11:03 |
| Rajasun | indus: generally true...perhaps I'm just a bit too much of an old schooler. Tend to recommend separate /usr and /tmp directories also. The latter as a buffer against certain remote attacks. | 11:03 |
| indus | VirusTB: no same thing but no live environment | 11:03 |
| indus | wait | 11:03 |
| mgv1 | how can i recored sound from flash????????????????????????????????????/ | 11:04 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: can u confirm that second option is like alternate cd? | 11:04 |
| AzaTht | I've got a tiny problem, and don't know what might be the cause of it: Each time I have closed down firefox and are due to shut down the computer, firefox is still running and I get the notice that it's running and if we should shutdown anyway. Could this be an extension problem in ff? I have bettergmail2, firebox, imacros,selenium ide and vimperator activated | 11:04 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: install ubuntu | 11:04 |
| llutz | Rajasun: separate /usr only makes sense, if you can mount it -ro | 11:04 |
| edgenet2009 | byebye | 11:04 |
| indus | Rajasun: you are a redhatter iam sure | 11:04 |
| VirusTB | indus: i restarted already, i know how to use Gparted so that can help me edit the partitiotns | 11:05 |
| indus | VirusTB: ok np | 11:05 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: second option? | 11:05 |
| indus | VirusTB: so in gparted you can create te partitions | 11:05 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: in live cd boot options, | 11:05 |
| airtonix | mgv1, looks like your keyboard is broken | 11:05 |
| Rajasun | Ilutz: like I said old schooler here and sadistic penchant for keeping everything nice, tidy separate and organized ;) | 11:05 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: not sure | 11:06 |
| VirusTB | indus: i messed my netbook :( Win XP wouldnt even load @ boot, who told me to delet the ubuntu partion while under Win Xp (and then told me to restart) is gonna be a dead man! | 11:06 |
| Mewses | smellynosery: http://pastie.org/738723 that's what occured for "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" | 11:06 |

| VirusTB | indus: i get grub error 17 ( i guess it cant find grub) | 11:06 |

| indus | VirusTB: why r u booting from hdd | 11:06 |
| VirusTB | indus: i am using a live cd | 11:06 |
| indus | VirusTB: then ? why r u seeing grub errors | 11:07 |
| VirusTB | indus: becuase i DELETED the Ubuntu partiton (right click> delet) under Windows XP | 11:07 |
| llutz | VirusTB: start windows-cd, fixmbr | 11:08 |
| ubuntunewbie | hi anyone know how to check my previous history IP address connected ? can someone teach me ? | 11:08 |
| indus | VirusTB: in live cd , it will not show any such things, HDD Is not involved at all | 11:08 |
| ubuntunewbie | Please thank you :-) | 11:08 |
| VirusTB | ?? llutz i dont have a CD room, netbok | 11:08 |
| indus | VirusTB: anyways, if you cant boot windows, you will have to fixmbr with windowscd | 11:08 |
| indus | VirusTB: so how are you booting unr? | 11:09 |
| smellynosery | Mewses: What's in your /etc/network/interfaces file now? | 11:09 |

| ubuntunewbie | ActionParsnip: my ISP is using dynamic ip address , I forgotten what Ip address I had connected yesterday and wanted to find out.How to I check back my previous IP address ? | 11:13 |
| VirusTB | indus: my ubuntu wouldnt load properly (because i shut it down badly by pressing the power button) | 11:13 |
| ActionParsnip | ubuntunewbie: so you mean the IP of your system on the web? | 11:13 |
| miltermann | list | 11:13 |
| indus | VirusTB: ok right now what is the status of your netbook | 11:13 |
| ActionParsnip | ubuntunewbie: not sure its logged, could check /var/logs maybe | 11:13 |
| indus | VirusTB: do u have windows working ok? | 11:13 |
| ubuntunewbie | ActionParsnip: yep ,something like log | 11:13 |
| ubuntunewbie | ActionParsnip: which log my ip address | 11:13 |
| VirusTB | indus: so hen i booted up under windows, and thought deleting the Ubuntu partition would soulve my problem, ... but it seems that the whole netbook is searching for the Grub to boot... and now i get error 17 each time i start up my netbook (and i cant get any further than that) | 11:14 |
| indus | aah grub | 11:14 |
| ubuntunewbie | ActionParsnip: which /var/logs log I should look for IP ? | 11:14 |
| indus | VirusTB: so now you are booting from live usb? | 11:14 |
| teto | فيه عرب | 11:15 |
| airtonix | ActionParsnip, does ubuntu even keep track of the routers wan address? | 11:15 |
| VirusTB | indus: yes now I am on live USB (with Netbook remix) but before i had the desktop version running on my netbook | 11:15 |
| Mewses | Smellynosery: Still says the same thing eventho its adress | 11:15 |
| airtonix | ubuntunewbie, unles you are running a custom script under cron daily to do this i doubt you'll find this information | 11:15 |
| semslie | hello all - would someone be kind enough to point me in the right direction for asking questions about sshfs and fuse? | 11:15 |
| indus | VirusTB: ok so you reached the live desktop? | 11:15 |
| indus | VirusTB: started partitioning? | 11:15 |
| ubuntunewbie | airtonix: hm ? ubuntu doesn't log ip address ? but I remember it also log my system boot up time also | 11:16 |
| smellynosery | Mewses: address? | 11:16 |
| ActionParsnip | airtonix: if you program it to, yes | 11:16 |
| airtonix | semslie, simple outline of your questions here first then see where it might lead | 11:16 |
| Mewses | smellynosery: Yes | 11:16 |
| VirusTB | indus: indus yes under Netboot remix live now, trying to see which partition i can edit ( i have 4 partitions, [ win xp, defualy win xp recovery for acer, DATA partition, and 55GB where ubuntu used to be | 11:16 |
| Mewses | smellynosery: hang on | 11:16 |
| airtonix | ubuntunewbie, boot up time doesn't not equal router wan address | 11:17 |
| indus | VirusTB: so edit the 55 gb partition , edit partitions | 11:17 |
| VirusTB | indus: can I resize the partions? i want to make my DATA partiion larger ( i dont need 80 GB for win XP at the momment) | 11:17 |
| Mewses | smellynosery: "Grep | 11:17 |
| Mewses | ops | 11:17 |
| indus | VirusTB: no idea probably yes | 11:17 |
| ubuntunewbie | airtonix: hm.... so how ? what application I should install to keep track of my ip address connected ? | 11:17 |
| indus | VirusTB: not sure if the data disappears | 11:17 |
| Mewses | smellynosery: "Grep /etc/resolv.conf: no such file or directory" | 11:18 |
| VirusTB | indus: :S ok i dont want data to dissappeazr | 11:18 |
| semslie | right: I've got a user on my system who's filesystem is mounted remotely via sshfs. There's an entry in fstab to bring this up on boot, which works nicely. When the user logs in he sees his home directory mounted over sshfs. But no files can be executed from this remotely-mounted home folder (gives a Permission Denied). Any suggestions or explanations? | 11:18 |
| ActionParsnip | airtonix: you could cron a job to run: IP=`wget -q -O - http://homer.meso.com/remoteip.php; sudo echo $IP >> /var/log/ip.log | 11:18 |
| indus | question to all , can u resize partition without losing data | 11:18 |
| VirusTB | Can one edit a partiton n Gparted without data loss? ( i gt 80 GB partiton and i see some yellow shading in it ) ActionParsnip llutz | 11:18 |

| VirusTB | ActionParsnip: :S so then i shouldnt take the risk? | 11:19 |
| aeonoris | ActionParsnip: Thanks. | 11:19 |
| mylisto2 | is it possible to simply upgrade from regular ubuntu (8.04) to ubuntu studio? | 11:19 |
| slacker- | has anyone got a Quickcam Express on karmic running? | 11:19 |
| ActionParsnip | VirusTB: make sure your backups are decent enough then you can play away | 11:19 |
| VirusTB | ActionParsnip: its lik 33% od my win xp NTFS partition shaded yellow | 11:19 |
| Mewses | Smellnosery: I need to go at 12:26. | 11:20 |
| Pholious | hey guys, I recently installed windows for certain games that don't run on winehq yet, though atm I change my disk boot priority to which OS I need, I was wondering... how can I edit grub to also list windows 7? | 11:20 |
| airtonix | semslie, one thing comes to mind : the user id number on the remote system and the user id on the local system... are tey the same? | 11:20 |
| VirusTB | indus: ok so whould I part the 55GB that my ubuntu used to be on? since i need some ' / ' and a ' / home ' ?> | 11:20 |
| indus | VirusTB: yes | 11:20 |
| indus | VirusTB: whats on the 'DATA' partition? | 11:21 |
| semslie | airtonix: yes - both id and group of the user is 501, which is the same as the remote os user (osx) | 11:21 |
| VirusTB | indus: my music i am copying it over to an EX HDD now :P | 11:21 |
| airtonix | semslie, the other thing to consider : have you been able to execute scripts/programs over fuse-ssh before? | 11:21 |
| semslie | airtonix: though the group id of the files on osx are 20 (staff). Not sure if this should make a difference though | 11:21 |
| indus | VirusTB: ok you can resize it , then when you have some more space , create the ubuntu partitions | 11:22 |
| Mewses | smellynosery: I got to catch the tram, thank you for your time. Im sorry if i wasted it | 11:22 |
| indus | VirusTB: or lessspace whatever | 11:22 |
| semslie | airtonix: I've never actually tried before. I was wondering if this was a known limitation of ssh-fs, or even fuse in general? | 11:22 |
| napnap | hi | 11:23 |
| VirusTB | indus: so i need to creat two "ext3' parttions? | 11:23 |
| airtonix | semslie, i think it is a limitation of fuse | 11:23 |
| indus | VirusTB: yes | 11:23 |
| VirusTB | indus: any recomemed sizes? | 11:23 |
| indus | VirusTB: and leave some space for swap partition | 11:23 |
| indus | VirusTB: 2 gb | 11:23 |
| semslie | airtonix: if thats the case then I may have to give up this approach and try something else :( | 11:24 |
| indus | VirusTB: for / keep 10 gb and /home the remaining space minus swap space | 11:24 |
| napnap | I don't find the syntax to add the samba admin account in my sudoers file, someone can explain ? | 11:24 |
| airtonix | semslie, consider maybe using xdmcp | 11:24 |
| indus | VirusTB:so understand? | 11:25 |
| ActionParsnip | napnap: samba admin? the samba admin is root and the members of the admin group | 11:25 |
| airtonix | semslie, from memory i have been able to run script s from ssh mounts using plain gnome places | 11:25 |
| * indus waits and fiddles his fingers | 11:26 | |
| hamzaatova2 | there is a macro making program for linux? how can i recored sound from swf off the web? | 11:26 |
| napnap | ActionParsnip: I want to add the domain admin group in my sudoers file | 11:27 |
| semslie | airtonix: hmm. I wonder if I can get anything at all to execute from the sshfs mount? | 11:27 |
| PeturI | I'm almost out of space on /home, / has lots of free space left. To which directory should i symlink in order to honor the Filesystem hiearchy standard? | 11:27 |
| semslie | airtonix: This is actually a virtualbox instance so I'm going to see if the 'shared folder' feature gets the job done. | 11:27 |

| hamzaatova2 | ActionParsnip, can you expain me how to recored? | 11:29 |

| ActionParsnip | hamzaatova2: all i can do is find guides, not something i do | 11:29 |
| hamzaatova2 | ActionParsnip, i dont understand from all the replies there how can i make this simple action | 11:30 |
| error404notfound | indus, that doesn't show how to change the theme | 11:30 |

| indus | therekku: can you open a terminal and type at prompt glxinfo | grep render | 11:37 |

| ActionParsnip | therekku: do you get a driver offered with: gksudo jockey-gtk | 11:37 |
| therekku | ActionParsnip: No, as i said Beginner Ubuntu user, i dont even know how i should get offered :) | 11:38 |

| indus | proprietary | 11:38 |
| PeturI | I'd like to use some of the free space on / to store big files. Which directory should i use to honor the filesystem hiearchy standard? | 11:38 |

| AzaTht | resending my question: | 11:41 |
| AzaTht | I've got a tiny problem, and don't know what might be the cause of it: Each time I have closed down firefox and are due to shut down the computer, firefox is still running and I get the notice that it's running and if we should shutdown anyway. Could this be an extension problem in ff? I have bettergmail2, firebox, imacros,selenium ide and vimperator activated | 11:41 |
| indus | therekku: ok go to system>admin>hardware drivers | 11:41 |
| therekku | Yes im there Indus. | 11:42 |
| indus | therekku: see anything? | 11:42 |
| therekku | "Searching for Available Drivers..." | 11:42 |
| therekku | then it says Closed Drivers arent "in use" or "Enabled" in this computer | 11:42 |
| indus | therekku: ok | 11:42 |
| indus | therekku: found any? | 11:43 |
| indus | therekku: if yes, then install it | 11:43 |
| therekku | Noup, theres nothing to choose | 11:43 |
| indus | therekku: ok hmm what exactly is the problem you face with display | 11:43 |
| indus | therekku:aah visual effects | 11:43 |
| indus | therekku: what version of ubuntu is this | 11:43 |
| therekku | Well, There isnt many problems, im just a bit worried about Visual effects, and Other things, such as if i open a Open GL Application ( Game? ) will it run? | 11:43 |
| therekku | its the latest one, cant remember 10.4? | 11:44 |
| indus | therekku: ok type lshw -C display | 11:44 |

| therekku | Sorry im a total Tard, how can i post it there? :) | 11:45 |
| indus | therekku: copy output and paste it there | 11:45 |
| psycho_oreos | AzaTht, dunno but I'd try disabling the last extension/addon that you put on and see if it helps | 11:46 |
| napnap | I don't find the syntax to add the samba admin account in my sudoers file, someone can explain me? | 11:46 |
| therekku | ill PM you the link | 11:46 |
| indus | therekku: ok | 11:46 |

| indus | therekku: you need to paste it there, then click on send ,then give me the url | 11:46 |
| psycho_oreos | AzaTht, not that I know of, or you can manually disable all and enable one at a time I suppose | 11:47 |
| indus | therekku: ok thanks got it | 11:47 |

| airtonix | semslie, the other thing you can try (when not using a vbox and instead normal live networks) is nfs | 11:55 |
| airtonix | semslie, since osx supports using nfs | 11:55 |
| psycho_oreos | amgarching, dunno I was guessing, on some program setups like irssi, Alt+0 I recall would switch to window 10 | 11:55 |

| Mwa | I'm running Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.10 with everything up to date as prompted by the package installer. I use this netbook in a lot of places, most of which don't have wifi. After a couple of days of being used somewhere with wifi, suspended, used somewhere without wifi, suspended and used in a different place ith different wifi, the connectivity starts to go a bit strange and I have to restart everything for them to be able to... | 12:09 |
| Mwa | ... connect (Firefox, pigin dropbox etc). After this, the networky thing in the top right can no longer connect to any network, it just spins round and round and round and round before eventually teling me I'm disconnected. If I disable wireless networking, I can never renable it. The only fix is an annoying reboot that causes GEdit to lose all my tabs and the file browser to lose my place in the filesystem. How do I fix it? | 12:09 |

| Mwa | ActionParsnip: Thank you, I have noted that down as an executable file in my home. Now, on to other matters | 12:17 |
| isolat3dsh33p | therekku: Haha | 12:17 |
| Mwa | 1) How do I make GEdit remember my tabs? | 12:17 |
| therekku | isolat3dsh33p: Alright working now, Fantastic stuff mate! | 12:17 |
| seeker__ | in that while running the image, i am getting error. Can any one help me in this? | 12:17 |
| Kartagis | nibbler, hello again. do you remember my problem? | 12:17 |
| Mwa | 2) How do I add syntax highlighting things to GEdit so I can make it recognise my objects etc | 12:17 |
| isolat3dsh33p | therekku: Yay. :D | 12:17 |
| nibbler | Kartagis, ssh? | 12:17 |
| Mwa | 3) How do I make the stupid popup alerts go away | 12:18 |
| Kartagis | nibbler, yes | 12:18 |
| nibbler | Kartagis, works now? or still broken? | 12:18 |
| Kartagis | nibbler, this time my server doesn't respond | 12:18 |
| Kartagis | box even | 12:18 |
| Kartagis | I got Timeout, server not responding. | 12:18 |
| Kartagis | and bailed out | 12:18 |
| nibbler | Kartagis, so you have the keepalive, but the session freezes. but you can open new sessions? | 12:19 |
| Kartagis | nibbler, exactly | 12:19 |
| phed | sup | 12:19 |
| therekku | how can i set "have the execute flag set" ? | 12:19 |
| drellok | therekku: chmod +x | 12:20 |
| Kartagis | therekku, chmod +x file | 12:20 |
| nibbler | Kartagis, then it does not seem to be a idle-problem :| after what idle period about does it drop the connection? can you open a ssh and run some script like "while [ 1 == 1 ]; do sleep 1; echo .; done" and see if it freezes after a while, too? | 12:20 |
| therekku | basically what im trying to do is "Set the ATI Drivers for Execution", but how do i do it with the Chmod +x COmmand? | 12:21 |
| nibbler | Kartagis, because basically that is what the keepalive does (without output, obv). and is there some NAT device involved (home router)? | 12:21 |
| Kartagis | yes | 12:21 |
| nibbler | therekku, just call "sh xyz" instead of "xyz" | 12:21 |
| Thijs | Hi. My ubuntu karmic won't boot after installing sun-java6-jdk, as in, the Xsplash freezes. I purged the sun install, but still i can't get past the xsplash. | 12:22 |
| bigmack83_ | im trying to use mpg join to join 3 .mog files. they all have audio and sound fine individually. but after using mpgjoin there is no audio. i have tried leaving individual videos out to see if one of them caused the problem but i keep getting the same results, no audio when mpgjoin is done. anyone know how to fix this? | 12:22 |
| Kartagis | nibbler, this happened like 1,5 hours after I set ServerAliveInterval | 12:22 |
| nibbler | Thijs, your problem is most likely *not* connected to java | 12:22 |
| therekku | nibbler: i dont understand.. | 12:23 |
| nibbler | Kartagis, ok. but before it happened earlier? | 12:23 |
| aaron11 | I cant seem to see any devices on the Wireshark Capture interface dialog box. Is this a bug or is it just something that I have to configure | 12:23 |
| Thijs | nibbler ok, but it worked fine just before installing it. How would i solve this problem? Or, better yet, how do i get back into X? | 12:23 |
| Kartagis | nibbler, not in that period | 12:23 |
| nibbler | therekku, well, you can either "chmod +x /path/to/file" and then call "/path/to/file" or you can prepend "sh " - in most cases at least (if its not binary executable) | 12:24 |
| nibbler | Thijs, there should be log files in /var/log/ named X* or in your homedir, cant remember. they should tell you whats going wrong | 12:24 |
| on3m0r3f15h | where is a beginner room for irc? | 12:24 |
| nibbler | on3m0r3f15h, start changing your nick to a less "1337" one, and you can already consider yourself advanced, which also solves your beginner-room problem :) | 12:25 |
| Oleg210281 | Hi All ! | 12:26 |
| on3m0r3f15h | thx | 12:26 |
| nibbler | Kartagis, hmm, not sure if i understand you... the keepalive seting helped? [ ] yes - [ ] yes, but just a bit - [ ] no, same as before | 12:27 |
| Oleg210281 | Help me please! I install on Unreal IRCd and thist work fine, but I can`t send privmsg $ with mask ^( | 12:27 |
| Oleg210281 | :( | 12:27 |
| Thijs | nibbler something like this: http://pastebin.com/f6ceb30fb | 12:28 |
| nibbler | on3m0r3f15h, until you figure out how to change a nick, use #help ;-) | 12:28 |
| on3m0r3f15h | #help | 12:28 |
| on3m0r3f15h | lol | 12:28 |
| Gwince|Work | on3m0r3f15h, Type this.. /join #help | 12:29 |
| Gwince|Work | that will let you join the Help channel | 12:29 |
| nibbler | Thijs, line 330, 661 and 662 tell you, that your graphics driver/card/whatever is broken | 12:29 |
| aaron11 | I cant seem to see any devices on the Wireshark Capture interface dialog box. Is this a bug or is it just something that I have to configure | 12:29 |
| Kartagis | nibbler, yes, but just a bit | 12:29 |
| Oleg210281 | Help me please! I install Unreal IRCd and thist work fine, but I can`t send "privmsg $" use mask | 12:29 |
| Dr_Willis | aaron11: you may need to run the tool as root. | 12:29 |
| Dr_Willis | Oleg210281: perhaps the unreal ircd has its own support channel/forum/faq. | 12:30 |
| nibbler | aaron11, are you running it as root? cause that might be necessary | 12:30 |
| aaron11 | Dr_Willis: No. I do wireshark in a terminal and it says dumpcap: There are no interfaces on which a capture can be done | 12:30 |
| Oleg210281 | thenks :) | 12:30 |
| Kartagis | nibbler, after 1,5 hours or so, ssh bailed out saying the server not responding | 12:30 |
| Dr_Willis | aaron11: i was thinking some of those tools only work with specific wireless card/chipset/drivers also. Ive not used any in atges however. | 12:31 |
| Kartagis | how can I set bash prompt to be time so that I can measure it? | 12:31 |
| Thijs | nibbler, ok thanks for the leading tips | 12:31 |
| Kartagis | PS1=\t gives me t | 12:31 |
| aaron11 | Dr_Willis: Sorry. Sudo did it :)! | 12:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Kartagis: check out the 'bash prompt howto' you can set | 12:31 |
| nibbler | Kartagis, try setting the keepalive to 1 (every second) instead of 5 - i cant imagine that helps, but its maybe worth a try. thing is, your NAT device has to keep track of all connections to map the ports/IPs accordingly - so they tend to drop idle connections to save ram - so configuring there can be helpful, too | 12:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Kartagis: lots of things that way. | 12:31 |
| ReggyLove | i have a lot if pixielisation on videos played in VLC/Totem in Ubuntu 8.04 screenshot-> http://imagebin.ca/img/gtAcMIg.png how do i fix it ? | 12:31 |
| nibbler | Kartagis, use my while-script, and instead of "echo ." use "date" | 12:32 |
| nibbler | Kartagis, so you will get a fresh date once per second, and oyu could see when it stops - if its a fixed-time problem... | 12:32 |
| boscop | PLS HELP: after rebooting with my newly compiled kernel, it doesn't get to the splash screen and login, I can't do anything, it doesn't detect the keyboard. even restarting with the old kernel does not help. I don't want to loose my data!! what should I do? | 12:33 |
| Kartagis | I started it, let's see | 12:33 |
| ziroday | boscop: boot into a livecd and copy your home directory onto an external drive | 12:34 |
| nibbler | boscop, dont worry, your data should be save, unless all this has hardwrae problems. if you want to be sure, boot from cd and burn/copy your data before continuing fixing your system | 12:34 |
| Dr_Willis | boscop: a live cd shhould let you get to your 'data' as for fixing the kernels - no idea on that. perhaps purge/reinstall one of the old kernels | 12:34 |
| semslie | airtonix: So far mounting over samba is working a lot better than either the sshfs or vboxsf options | 12:34 |
| boscop | ziroday: my external disk if 100% full :( | 12:34 |
| ziroday | boscop: well then some other sort of suitable backup medium | 12:35 |
| boscop | and I don't want to loose all my configs either. | 12:35 |
| therekku | i've installed wine, and i have WOrld of Warcraft Installed on the Same partition as Linux / windows (Dual boot) however, im wondering if anyone could help me with Opening WOrld of warcraft From C:// Drive, ? ( as i dont know how to access it from linux ) | 12:35 |
| ziroday | boscop: most of your configurations are stored in your home folder as hidden files/folders | 12:35 |
| nibbler | boscop, by copying ~/ you will have all personal settings, by /etc/ all systemwide ones (almost) | 12:35 |
| kr_217 | can any one help me with this problem:ldap_add: Invalid syntax (21) | 12:35 |

| nibbler | therekku, should be in your startmenu under "wine->programs->blah" | 12:36 |
| ziroday | therekku: the wine folks recommend you do a separate install of WoW in wine instead of attempting to use your windows version | 12:36 |
| boscop | but I've read somewhere that it shouldn't affect the old kernel. what about that!? | 12:36 |
| Dr_Willis | therekku: it might be best if you reinstall WoW just for the wine install.. You dont want to mess up the install on the windows machine. | 12:36 |
| Dr_Willis | therekku: see the wine app database | 12:36 |
| Dr_Willis | !appdb | therekku | 12:36 |
| ubottu | therekku: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org - Join #winehq for application help | 12:36 |
| therekku | i see, thanks alot! | 12:36 |
| ziroday | boscop: did you compile this kernel yourself, or is it from the repo's? Where exactly does it fail and what error messages do you get | 12:37 |
| paissad-hp | can you advice a tool to extract a deb package in order to see its content ? | 12:37 |
| nibbler | boscop, it does not affect your old kernel, unless the old and new have the same name, then modules of the one can be overwritten by the other (name/version string) - boot, in grub press "e" and append a "init=/bin/sh" to the kernel line, boot this and see if things work (X wont work etc, but you should get a shell in your system) | 12:37 |
| Dr_Willis | therekku: or coursew that means reinstalling/updating what amounts to be 10+GB of data.. but you could install the minimal wow you cen.. then copy the 'WoW' install dir from your windows drive to the .wine/whatever/C_drive/Program Files dir. | 12:37 |
| Dr_Willis | paissad-hp: 'mc' lets you browse the contents of a .deb and many other archives | 12:38 |
| Dr_Willis | paissad-hp: no need to 'extract' :) unless you wanted to | 12:38 |
| syockit | I want sudo to be able to run binaries in directory specified by PATH. Editing /root/.bashrc doesn't solve the problem | 12:38 |
| boscop | ziroday: I used the sources, for kernel 2.6.32, then I followed the instructions to compile with the old config, and installed the .deb of the new kernel. when starting, I first got "no fs found in /proc/mounts/" or something like that (is fs == file system?) | 12:38 |
| boscop | but when I now restart, I don't get that message either, just a black screen | 12:38 |
| jrib | syockit: what *exactly* are you trying to accomplish? | 12:39 |
| Dr_Willis | syockit: check the sudoers docs/guides/ im not sure thats possible to do that. | 12:39 |
| ziroday | boscop: it sounds like you did something wrong compiling your own kernel, which has now broken a lot of other things | 12:39 |
| nibbler | boscop, fs=filesystem yes - check your other kernel parameters, there should be one root= - check if its pointing to your / fs | 12:39 |
| nibbler | boscop, any errormessage would be helpfull - boot with "nosplash" to avoid having colorfull logos instead of nice information | 12:40 |

| LioN__ | I've upgraded my ubuntu to karmic, and I don't have more sound whit games | 12:42 |
| jrib | syockit: I'm pretty sure texlive 2009 is properly packaged for ubuntu somewhere (ppa or site page, don't remember) | 12:43 |
| syockit | jrib: will look for it | 12:43 |
| jrib | syockit: the answer to your question though is in « man sudoers », ubuntu uses secure_path with sudo | 12:43 |

| syockit | jrib: oh thanks. but will try to look for other solutions, since you guys seem to think I'm probably doing it the wrong way. why do I have to sudo anyway... | 12:45 |
| nibbler | Scrape, just make a shellscript that executes all the package at one mouseclick - or use the sessions... | 12:45 |
| Dr_Willis | Scrape: or make a script that pops up a dialog and asks to load those other apps.. (yes/no) | 12:45 |

| nibbler | boscop, even with nosplash init=/bin/sh? | 12:46 |
| jrib | syockit: because you're putting files in /usr/local/ so only root can make changes there. You could instead use ~/.texmf-config/ when adding a new class like I do | 12:46 |

| Dr_Willis | letourdefrance: you may want to connect wired.. and try update/upgrading that way any fix's get pulled in. | 12:52 |
| nibbler | boscop, the kernel panic is ok - but do you get a commandpromt right before that? | 12:52 |

| Dr_Willis | bradpitt: you mean a normal 'wired' lan connection is not working? | 12:53 |
| nibbler | boscop, but if you dont have a promt, where do you press ctrl-d? | 12:53 |
| Dr_Willis | letourdefrance: if you update/upgrade - it should pull in all the many many updates since its came out. | 12:53 |
| boscop | nibbler: in the black screen with that error msg | 12:53 |
| nibbler | yea maybe... dunno | 12:54 |

| flexy | I installed karmic on a laptop. I get only 3GB of 4GB of memory to recogniced. How do I get all of it? | 12:54 |
| Dr_Willis | ctrl-d is a 'old skool' key combo to send an end of line. I recall. :) or somthing like that.. | 12:54 |
| nibbler | boscop, because ctrl-d is basically ending the /bin/sh process you defined as init, and that is ok that it gives you the kernel oops. but that also means you somehow were in that shell, otherwise you could not end it... | 12:54 |

| jrib | flexy: well you don't seem to be alone: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1135442 They offer the video card suggestion and one person says you may need to update bios | 13:06 |
| flexy | jrib: I have a -generic kernel installed. Should I have a -server instead? Would not think that, this being a laptop... | 13:07 |
| shubbar | how does Nautilus chooses video icon? and how can i change it? | 13:07 |
| Dr_Willis | always_smile: your use of the term 'auto' cd is just.. weird.. the OS sees the cd get changed and auto launches/does stuff.. theres no 'auto cd' its just a music cd. or video dvd | 13:07 |
| flexy | jrib: I checked mb bios, it is newest | 13:07 |
| nibbler | boscop, where is the entry for sda1? | 13:07 |
| jrib | flexy: no, -generic is correct. Also see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=930173 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=413749 <- last link is important, it's what I had to do to see all 4gb | 13:08 |
| ardchoille | shubbar: nautilus chooses icons based on the file extension and you can change it by either editing the icon theme or changing the theme | 13:08 |
| boscop | nibbler: the line is "/dev/sda1 / ext3 ro,relatime,errors=continue,data=writeback 0 0" | 13:08 |
| boscop | nibbler: the entry is in /proc/mounts | 13:08 |

| remin | I hav a problem with display #karmic... | 13:08 |
| nibbler | boscop, then i'd say you are on your root partition | 13:09 |
| nibbler | boscop, you have /home with everything etc? | 13:09 |
| remin | resolution is gone with each login | 13:09 |
| shubbar | ardchoille: how can i change the "icon theme"? | 13:09 |
| remin | what can I do??? | 13:09 |
| bazhang | always_smile, medibuntu.org is where you need to check | 13:09 |
| boscop | nibbler: yes, but why does it say there is no fs in /proc/mounts when there is? | 13:09 |
| ardchoille | shubbar: Preferences > Appearance and go to the Icon tab | 13:10 |
| nibbler | boscop, i have no idea what script triggers this errormessage | 13:10 |
| shubbar | ardchoille: sorry, i meant it was a thumbnail icon | 13:10 |
| nibbler | boscop, obv your root is properly mounted etc, it should just continue to init and thats it. | 13:10 |
| boscop | :( | 13:10 |
| ardchoille | shubbar: er, Preferences > Appearance, click the "Customize" button and go to the Icons tab | 13:10 |
| ardchoille | shubbar: Oh, no idea about thumbnails, I don't use them | 13:11 |
| nibbler | boscop, but: congrats, your new kernel booted, and oyu have an interactive commandshell running with it!!! </sarcasm> | 13:11 |
| Flexy | jrib: in addition, the machine stucks every now and then. | 13:11 |
| boscop | nibbler: meh, I really need to work on it asap | 13:11 |
| remin | resolution is gone with each login | 13:11 |
| Flexy | jrib: I got the links though... | 13:11 |
| boscop | it should work, I followed the instructions exactly | 13:12 |
| remin | #help | 13:12 |
| jrib | Flexy: yeah, check for that memory remapping option in your bios | 13:12 |
| nibbler | boscop, the kernel also has a initramfs which is specified in the "initrd" line. there is some script in it, and this script is fking up i suppose. but i cant help you there and some higher level solution for this problem would also be way more helpful | 13:12 |
| bradpitt | lilyshu, Dr_Willis said subnet will depend on her lan setup. 255.255.255.0 normall. and dns should be given by her isp. or router. or theres free dns servers she could try. she could try dns server ip of 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4, but using dhcp is supposed to 'automatically' get that info | 13:12 |
| boscop | nibbler: what should I do? | 13:13 |
| jacquesdupontd | hi guys | 13:13 |
| Flexy | jrib: no such option in bios.. | 13:14 |
| nibbler | boscop, backup /home and /etc and reinstall is what i'd recommend | 13:14 |
| remin | ill try sudp dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 13:14 |
| boscop | nibbler: reinstall everything?? | 13:14 |
| lilyshu | dhcp is not working.. | 13:14 |
| jacquesdupontd | i have an idea and i would like to know if logically it could be possible to do, i know that for now it doesn't exist but i think that could be a very good idea with our high bandwith personnal connections | 13:14 |
| jrib | Flexy: don't know then | 13:14 |
| remin | and again resolution downed 2 lower.. | 13:15 |
| === armmy_ is now known as arm | ||
| nibbler | boscop, well.. its a way.... but alternatively reinstall a repository kernel - boot into this commandshell, set up your networking manually (or use /etc/init.d/networking start) and see if you can use aptitude | 13:15 |
| nibbler | boscop, but if you know how and what to do, reinstall is 20min | 13:15 |
| Flexy | I'll have to look at the links you gave me. thanks. I'll be back if those are not helping... | 13:16 |
| jacquesdupontd | ok so if someone is listening to me, i'm thinking about a project to play a game that instead of being installed on your local hdd it would be installed on a fast server with the file needed either on yourcomputer (directx things like that or different things for inux) and also on the server and play them streamly, what would be the connection speed needed for a game like quake 4 for example ? | 13:16 |
| jacquesdupontd | is someone knowing enought how it works to be able answer me ? | 13:16 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: hello | 13:16 |
| lilyshu | Dr. Willis : dhcp is not working :( | 13:16 |
| bazhang | jacquesdupontd, lets take this to #ubuntu-offtopic please | 13:16 |
| jacquesdupontd | yes sure | 13:16 |
| Dr_Willis | I find the slowest/longest part of doing a install is typing in/setting all the proper mountpoints.. silly tool/gui they use constantly wants to rescan all the drives every time i set one. and i have 6 hard drives... | 13:16 |
| boscop | nibbler: but then I would have the old kernel :( with all the problems | 13:17 |
| Dr_Willis | lilyshu: makes me wonder how theres going to be a proper ip set then. Perhaps more details of the network setup would be handy | 13:17 |
| indus | jacquesdupontd: quake4 requires atleast 256 kbps to support say 6 players | 13:17 |
| lilyshu | Dr_Willis : dhcp is not working :( | 13:17 |
| boscop | nibbler: and it takes alot of time to update from the 8.10 cd I have | 13:17 |
| Dr_Willis | lilyshu: set everything statically then. No idea what the ip shoul;d be | 13:17 |
| smellynosery | Can I _safely_ download and compile the kernel from kernel.org and use it with ubuntu without having any issues? | 13:17 |

| nibbler | boscop, well so/so not a kernel thing, as you need modules, but those are supplied by the vendors and not by the kernel-team so to say | 13:21 |
| bradpitt | lilyshu : do you really understand? please don't be shy. just ask your question here so people here can see whats your problem and if they knows, they will help you. | 13:22 |

| FoggyHill | Hi | 13:22 |
| lilyshu | bradpitt, i get that. i just have to make it all set up. | 13:22 |
| nibbler | boscop, yep, there is poor support for those. 8.10 was the last ubuntu with proper support - then they moved on with more recent xorg-servers and so support had to drop out | 13:23 |
| letourdefrance | hmmm updating did not work. I simply cannot connect to wireless since i updated to 9.10. Any suggestions? | 13:23 |
| kane77 | okay, I have problem with my grub.. So I tried to burn the ubuntu-desktop iso on a dvd and boot from there, but it keeps saying that it cannot boot from it, when I burned it on one very old dvd-rw it booted but then halted because of read errors (there are lot of scratches on dvd :) ), then I tried creating bootable usb stick from the iso but it does not boot (says something like "not found linux" and just have "boot:" prompt) any other suggestions how I mig | 13:23 |
| kane77 | ht fix it? | 13:23 |

| bazhang | kane77, burned to iso how | 13:24 |
| bazhang | err burned to usb how kane77 | 13:24 |
| Dr_Willis | kane77: you are burning the cd iso to a dvd ? | 13:24 |
| boscop | nibbler: I heard something like that. but it's a pain in the ass sometimes when the system runs very slow and I would like to be able to play games anymore. I don't want to return to windows just for this :/ | 13:24 |
| always_smile | I got this error message 'Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: w32codecs' when i try to download rmconverter,what shall i do? | 13:25 |

| letourdefrance | hmmm updating did not work. I simply cannot connect to wireless since i updated to 9.10. Any suggestions? | 13:25 |
| boscop | nibbler: when is support coming back? with the next ubuntu release? | 13:25 |
| bazhang | kane77, what about unetbootin ? tried that? | 13:25 |
| kane77 | Dr_Willis, yep, it works on dvd-rw, but not on dvd-r (and the rw is full of scratches so it gives read errors later on).. :/ | 13:26 |
| Dr_Willis | boscop: intel video has been a roller coaster lately it seems. Sadly. Ive heard a lot of work is gettting done with it in the next release. | 13:26 |
| kane77 | bazhang, I was thinking of that is there any tutorial out there? | 13:26 |
| Dr_Willis | kane77: ive never had a cd iso burt to a dvd disk work. I just use unetbootin, or the usb-disk-creator tool to make bootable flash drives these days | 13:26 |

| bazhang | kane77, then you should give unetbootin a try, it has always worked well here | 13:29 |
| Dr_Willis | kane77: yep. some times making a bootable usb flash drive can be a pain. Unetbootin normally works for me. but some times i just get a combonation of flash drive and pc that donmt like each other. Try different flash drives. test them on several pc's | 13:29 |

| sipior | ooze: not at all. simply that if the firewall were enabled by default, it would be very hard to come up with a set of default rules that worked for everyone out of the box. a great deal of support would be directed towards people who couldn't figure out why some things weren't working properly. | 13:46 |

| da65 | :) | 14:07 |
| Pici | !runlevels | reign2 | 14:07 |
| ubottu | reign2: In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab. | 14:07 |
| nibbler | !upstart | 14:07 |
| ubottu | Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ | 14:07 |
| Epsiloneus | nibbler: ok, thanks. I am wondering about commandline multitasking, for example using irc and mp3 player, being able to switch between them while no stopping either, and without losing the commandline itself for doing other things. | 14:07 |

| Epsiloneus | ok, I will check that out, thank you | 14:08 |
| austlaw | any ideas to fix resolution? | 14:08 |
| da65 | should just work | 14:08 |

| crawler | llutz: thanks i will try that. much appreciated :-) | 14:09 |
| Dr_Willis | been so long since i messed with runlevels... | 14:09 |
| boscop | nibbler: I have 2 Ghz cpu and 1 GB ram (and another 2 GB swap file). this should be enough for playing games, shouldn't it? at least on windows it's sufficient | 14:10 |

| xover | are the vmware display drivers for ubuntu compiled directly into the kernel? | 14:10 |
| reign2 | Dr_Willis: Ok. Now will I still have to symlink my init.d scripts in rc2,rc3,rc4,rc5? | 14:10 |
| CHESLYN | Dr_Willis: even that | 14:10 |
| Dr_Willis | reign2: the use of rc2/3/4/ and the init.d system is slowly getting phased out. runlevel '2' is the ubuntu default i belive. | 14:11 |
| falconheart | I was wondering if anyone has a spare moment to help me with something. I have a program that starts when my computer boots up and I'd like to stop that behavior.. Only start it when I want to use it. I'm very new to Ubuntu. I'm on Hardy 64 bit, if that makes any difference. | 14:11 |
| mrqismrx | When I put my computer in hibernate mode and try to wake it. It shows the screen saver and then freezes when a push a button and if I like push ESQ then the screen saver starts moving again but no login screen. Only if I put out the power from my laptop the login appear. What should I do? | 14:11 |
| epinky | falconheart: use rcconf | 14:12 |
| === vox_ is now known as vox | ||
| reign2 | Dr_Willis: Ok but if I drop to console, my runlevel is 1 correct? | 14:12 |
| Dr_Willis | falconheart: what program | 14:12 |
| Dr_Willis | reign2: not sure.. all you have to do is stop the gdm service.. and you are at the console. | 14:12 |
| Dr_Willis | reign2: so you may not be in runlevel 1 | 14:12 |

Please? | 14:15 |
| Dr_Willis | reign2: you could just call it from /etc/rc.local if you wanted.. but i dont know what you are really doing.. In the next release there may not be any rc#.d stuff. so good luck | 14:15 |
| coofish | hehe,Ubuntu is not for ubuntu itself,ubuntu is comsuming resource owned by whole mankind | 14:15 |

| nperry | laeg: Answered | 14:16 |
| falconheart | I'm not on karmic, I'm on hardy. | 14:16 |
| Dr_Willis | falconheart: how did you install tor? if it added a item to the rc.# dirs. You ned to use a proper tool to remove the entry | 14:16 |
| coofish | I NEED proxy,TOR is blocked too,in china | 14:16 |
| Dr_Willis | !info tor hardy | 14:16 |
| reign2 | Dr_Willis: My issue is that ubuntu shuts the network down before unmounting cifs shares; so shutdown and reboot and changing runlevels hangs at a certain point | 14:16 |
| ActionParsnip | coofish: its offtopic here | 14:17 |
| falconheart | I added the repo for tor, installed via synaptic | 14:17 |
| Dr_Willis | reign2: i noticed that issue once ages ago.. but not seen it in 9.10 | 14:17 |
| Pici | coofish: This is the Ubuntu support channel, we cannot help you find a proxy here. | 14:17 |
| laeg | nperry: ty look now | 14:17 |
| reign2 | Dr_Willis: to remedy the issue I rearranged the init scripts in the respective runlevel dirs so that cifs are umounted earlier | 14:17 |
| crawler | falconheart: it's been a while since i've used tor, but me thinks Viddalia can control the tor service | 14:17 |
| Dr_Willis | falconheart: then remove tor if you dont want it - via the package manager. or use a tool like 'bum' tomanage what services get started at boot. | 14:17 |
| reign2 | Dr_Willis: And I'm just wondering why I need to do it for rc1 in order for stopping gdm tow rok | 14:18 |
| laeg | nperry: i have to run to work but i will try it first thing tomorrow and let you know on the post if it worked or not okay? ty for your time | 14:18 |
| coofish | can anyone setup a proxy service for a while?I can help u do it! | 14:18 |
| falconheart | right, vidalia is installed also. and it does indeed control the service but that's how I found out it was starting when my computer does. Vidalia was giving me errors and not starting tor.. I thought it was a vidalia issue, until I tried to start tor via the commandline and found out it was already running. | 14:18 |
| nperry | laeg: Not a problem :) | 14:18 |
| laeg | :) | 14:18 |
| reign2 | Dr_Willis: considering someone just mentioned that simply stopping gdm doesnt change runlevels | 14:19 |
| Dr_Willis | reign2: gdm in 9.10 is now handled by upstart. theres a single upstart 'service' that checks/launches allthe stuff in the rc## dirs. so predicting the order things happen in. May be a bit harder to do now | 14:19 |
| Dr_Willis | reign2: gdm is just a service.. same as any other service. Ive not had to us3e runlevels in ubuntu in err.. ever that i cen reccall. | 14:19 |
| coofish | tor+ vidalia is not a good solution as a proxy agent! | 14:19 |
| livingdaylight | Ja Hallo; ich haette gerne Hilfe... unzwar: I would like to know how i can print 'forms' simply black in linux. I have Epson Stylus 425 printer and when i go to properties and change RGB to greyscale nothing happens... i get entire 'white' sheet... how to simply print forms in black in 20 seconds that otherwise take 2 minutes to get every shade of color and waste ink? Please? | 14:19 |
| coofish | rubbish,slggy,and easy to be blocked | 14:20 |
| reign2 | Dr_Willis: hmm than it is very strange why adding a umount script in rc1.d solves my problem of gdm hanging | 14:20 |
| falconheart | what's a better solution coofish? IMHO its better than spending hours looking for working proxies. lol | 14:20 |
| coofish | lol | 14:21 |
| austlaw | maximum resolution listed is 640x480, how do I fix this? | 14:21 |
| Dr_Willis | reign2: ive never had gdm hang while trying to stop it. I cant see why nfs/samba/cifs would affect GDM at all | 14:21 |
| FoggyHill | Starting nginx: 2009/12/11 14:20:31 [emerg] 6628#0: getpwnam("www") failed in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf:4 | 14:21 |
| FoggyHill | ubuntu doesn't use www? | 14:21 |
| FoggyHill | i mean, shouldn't the nginx package have added www during install? | 14:21 |
| boscop | nibbler: ok, I logged in with 2.6.28-16-generic. how do I upgrade the kernel to 2.6.31-16-generic now? | 14:21 |
| coofish | I can setup a server for u all,if you wanna visit some sites blocked ur IP | 14:21 |
| Dr_Willis | FoggyHill: theres several www servers.. | 14:21 |
| reign2 | Dr_Willis: I couldnt see why either. but stopping gdm definately does not drop me to console unless that script is there | 14:22 |

| crawler | falconheart: you're welcome, by the way, in bum, tor is listed as "anonymizing overlay network for TCP" | 14:25 |

| perlsyntax | how to submit your module for perl for ubuntu? | 14:27 |
| reign2 | Dr_Willis: I just a read up a bit on upstart, and it apparently still uses the order in rc.# dirs; for now at least. evidently upstart is not fully implemented? | 14:27 |
| crawler | falconheart: i'd be careful with those services... :-) | 14:28 |
| crawler | falconheart: but breaking stuff is half the fun, eh? | 14:28 |
| falconheart | oh I am I'm only turning off stuff I know I don't need :D | 14:28 |

| falconheart | lol yeah I've reinstalled linux about 3 times now due to my uh.. "tinkering" ;) | 14:28 |
| crawler | heh | 14:28 |
| ActionParsnip | falconheart: good way to learn | 14:28 |
| crawler | ActionParsnip: falconheart: absoluely 100% agree xD | 14:29 |
| falconheart | yeah I "broke" and "fixed" my very first computer too. and after that everyone came to me for advice :p | 14:29 |
| boomernang | Hi - how can I tell grub2 to use a menu instead of automatically loading the first option? | 14:29 |
| zoug | how can i "grep" through bunch of debs in a directory so that i can install only one app and its dependencies? otherwise i have to install all the dependencies manually,which is annoying! | 14:29 |
| Fabian | turn grub time to 0 | 14:29 |
| falconheart | so glad I switched to linux. but lots to learn still. thanks for all the help! | 14:29 |
| crawler | falconheart: good luck | 14:29 |
| wushu_ | bbreaking stuff? you think breaking stuff is stopping something from booting? | 14:29 |
| zengeos | same here falcon | 14:29 |
| jrib | zoug: why aren't you just using apt? | 14:30 |

| coofish | ubuntu users is silly really~~ | 14:30 |
| jrib | zoug: ok, but that doesn't answer my question afaict | 14:31 |
| boomernang | Fabian, do you mean grub timeout? in /etc/default/grub | 14:31 |
| zoug | ActionParsnip: wont that be installing all the debs in the current dir? | 14:31 |
| boomernang | coofish, you have no idea | 14:31 |

| coofish | press e,u can input any kernel to boot from,fool~~~~~~ | 14:32 |
| zoug | ActionParsnip: okay, i can try that.. | 14:32 |
| jrib | zoug: create a local apt repository I guess | 14:32 |
| zoug | jrib: how do i do that? | 14:32 |
| boomernang | coofish, i am using grub2 you crazy maniac. not grub 0.97 | 14:32 |
| zoug | jrib: add a new sourse u mean? | 14:32 |
| coofish | so change back to .97,keep off from any beta sw | 14:33 |
| jrib | zoug: sure, but you need to run some commands first. Just google "local apt repository", I'm sure you'll get plenty of documentation | 14:33 |
| Hans_Henrik | any1 know the switch for "gnu make" to ignore errors and continue? | 14:33 |
| boomernang | coofish, beta is installed by default you crazy maniac - i told you, you have no idea | 14:33 |

| zoug | ActionParsnip: okay, i tried that but gives dependency problems | 14:37 |
| ActionParsnip | zoug: then install those first, or if you apt-get archive is empty you can run: sudo apt-get -f install | 14:38 |
| wushu_ | whats the difference betweren apt get and aptitude | 14:38 |
| bazhang | coofish, remain on topic or you will be removed. chat in #ubuntu-offtopic | 14:39 |

| ActionParsnip | letourdefrance: or panasonic, or the US army | 14:39 |

| napsy | Hello. Is there a telnet server for Linux? | 14:51 |
| Dr_Willis | always_smile: use the package manager tools to install the software mentioned | 14:51 |
| Black_Phantom | when is the death date of 8.04 LTS ? | 14:51 |
| Dr_Willis | napsy: it would be 'best' to use ssh whenever possible. | 14:52 |
| BlouBlou | !telnet | napsy | 14:52 |
| ubottu | napsy: telnet is not safe. Please use ssh instead. See !ssh | 14:52 |
| Dr_Willis | !lts | BlouBlou | 14:52 |
| ubottu | BlouBlou: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Hardy (Hardy Heron 8.04). The next LTS release is scheduled to be !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04) | 14:52 |
| BlouBlou | Dr_Willis: errr... what? | 14:52 |
| AceKing | Anyone know how to make the printer shared from my Karmic PC visible to a vista PC? | 14:52 |
| Dr_Willis | BlouBlou: the version # is the date. so yrs for 8.10 = 8+5 | 14:53 |
| BlouBlou | Dr_Willis: I didn't ask it (I am using 9.10) | 14:53 |
| Dr_Willis | BlouBlou: but those will be security updates only I think. (i rarely need the LTS features) | 14:53 |
| David-T | Dr_Willis: i think you want to be telling Black_Phantom :) | 14:53 |
| therekku | Velcroshooz: Synaptic -> "Conky" And i get multiple choices ( Conky-all Condy Std Conky Cli And Conky, which one should i download? ) | 14:53 |

From what I remember all i need to do is do a recovery, but wont that install another boot loader or something, re | 15:00 |

| kjelle | yes | 15:01 |
| gdiz | I have a question for you all. There is a program that I am trying to get running under python 2.4 instead of 2.6. Unless this means something else, I am getting deprecation errors. Do you guys know how to run something under 2.4 instead of 2.6? | 15:01 |
| epinky | napsy: sudo /etc/init.d/inetutils-inetd start | 15:01 |
| ikonia | kjelle: what do you mean by stack ? | 15:01 |
| janaus | zoug: its just a fresh install from cd :( | 15:01 |
| always_smile | hello everyone,what's the command to play CHM files,thanks | 15:01 |
| kjelle | ikonia: well, how much stack memory a given process uses. | 15:01 |

| isolat3dsh33p | boomernang: has you check using fdisk? | 15:02 |
| kjelle | ikonia: no, it displays the combined usage of code, data and stack | 15:02 |
| kjelle | ikonia: i need to only know the stack :) | 15:02 |
| janaus | zoug: i have booted the install via the boot from first hard disk option on the install cd.... | 15:02 |
| ikonia | kjelle: what are you talking about "stack" | 15:03 |
| kjelle | ikonia: do you know what the stack is? | 15:03 |
| epinky | napsy: is telnet installed? sudo apt-get install telnetd | 15:03 |

| rickyrickyricky | I order a CD of ubuntu, it arrives, i install it on a seperate PC. | 16:21 |
| always_smile | Dr_Willis_: could you give me the right format to this command: gst-register-0.8 ,thank you | 16:21 |
| Dr_Willis_ | always_smile: where did that even come from? | 16:21 |
| funnybutty | how to install | 16:21 |
| BluesKaj | arand, yeah, maybe , but I haven't seen a stable mplayer in several versions | 16:21 |
| syk | is there a way i can change my system try/notification icon to make it the same as the one that is in the gnome menu? they are different and id like for them to be the same | 16:22 |
| rickyrickyricky | Firstly, the CD tells me that it can install Ubunut alongside Vista, and lies, as there is no option ANYWHERE to install alongside Vista. | 16:22 |
| funnybutty | fuck fuck fuck, mother mother fuck\ | 16:22 |
| Dr_Willis_ | always_smile: when in doubt do a 'command --help' and check the help docs/info | 16:22 |
| funnybutty | she's gonna shoot me!!! | 16:22 |
| KongfuToufu | hi,my lap-top can't resume after suspend to ram. Can anyone help me? | 16:22 |

| ubottu | Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 16:22 |
| Pici | !language | funnybutty | 16:22 |
| ubottu | funnybutty: please see above | 16:22 |
| funnybutty | lol | 16:22 |
| funnybutty | looool | 16:22 |
| funnybutty | ubuntu sux0rs | 16:22 |
| BluesKaj | funnybutty, bully for you , you learned a new curse word | 16:22 |
| rickyrickyricky | Secondly, every single one of my drivers become incompatible with ubuntu, therefore, i cannot connect to the internet, so i cannot download new drivers. | 16:23 |
| naoshige | Does BIND9 on ubuntu require rndc? | 16:23 |
| Dr_Willis_ | rickyrickyricky: It pops up a dialog here on my windows box's to do a wubi install.. or you boot and it sets a dual boot setup. Your option. | 16:23 |
| sipior | funnybutty: go away. | 16:23 |
| Dr_Willis_ | rickyrickyricky: so you did install ubuntu then? and thats your actual support question? | 16:23 |
| dimitar | haha | 16:23 |
| therekku | Is there any Nice little Application thats Easy to use (unlike Conky) that Allows me to place a Ram / Cpu Usage Monitor + Time + other small things, e.g. Songs playing etc. on my Desktop, the way conky does? if no, can someone tell me where to place the conkyr file? | 16:23 |
| dimitar | hi! | 16:24 |
| Daemonis | Thank god | 16:24 |
| arand | BluesKaj: you might at least be able to convert it... By the way,I've had a lot of flvs simply come out as corrupted in one way or other, so redownloading, or even waiting a day and then redownloading (experience with youtube) might get you a proper version, all depnding on what/where the file is... | 16:24 |
| rickyrickyricky | i installed ubuntu and found no option as i carried on with the installation to do a dual boot setup. | 16:24 |
| naoshige | Hello. When stopping BIND9, I get: rndc: neither /etc/bind/rndc.conf nor /etc/bind/rndc.key was found - does anybody know what's wrong? | 16:24 |
| Dr_Willis_ | therekku: theres hundereds of conky scripts/examples at the conky home page you can use/alter as you want. Or try gkrellm (i think i spelt that riught) | 16:24 |
| aperson | therekku, check the forum, there are loads of conky configs there | 16:24 |
| naoshige | How do I generate those two files? | 16:24 |
| dimitar | does anyone know program that show you HDD,cpu,ram,network protocol...please? | 16:24 |
| rickyrickyricky | So now i have a computer with only Ubuntu, with no compatible drivers, and no disk to reinstall vista. | 16:24 |
| Daemonis | Ricky, when you set up the partition there is an option to use any free space on your disc other than your operating system | 16:24 |
| cfedde | on 9.10 should initctl list show me some output? | 16:24 |
| Dr_Willis_ | rickyrickyricky: installed how? booted the cd? or double clicked somthing under windows? | 16:24 |
| dimitar | does anyone know program that show you HDD,cpu,ram,network protocol...please? | 16:25 |
| aperson | dimitar, conky, gkrellm | 16:25 |
| rickyrickyricky | and i cant even use software centre as everything isn't available | 16:25 |
| Daemonis | But that space has to be unformatted, if it's NTFS it wont work | 16:25 |
| dimitar | @aperson THANKS | 16:25 |
| rickyrickyricky | No, no there isn't. | 16:25 |
| BluesKaj | arand, there's an app called youtubedl , (I think) .. | 16:25 |
| dimitar | aperson thanks | 16:25 |
| mic69 | hello | 16:25 |
| xD | !hi | mic69 | 16:25 |
| sal_ | ricky3 sounds like you skipped the partitioning | 16:25 |
| ubottu | mic69: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines. Enjoy your stay! | 16:25 |
| naoshige | When stopping BIND9, I get: rndc: neither /etc/bind/rndc.conf nor /etc/bind/rndc.key was found - does anybody know what's wrong? How do I generate those two files? | 16:25 |
| Dr_Willis_ | !bind | 16:26 |
| rickyrickyricky | everytime i tried to do anything other than the "format and continue" option, i was confronted with an error saying that no partition was selected | 16:26 |
| === bobo is now known as natethebobo | ||
| Daemonis | Ricky, you have to make a partition. Are you using windows? | 16:26 |
| BluesKaj | arand, or you could always use the FF tmp file to dl after the file has fifnished buffering | 16:26 |
| rickyrickyricky | so i was literally FORCED into formatting or not installing | 16:26 |
| sal_ | ricky which version are you trying to install? | 16:26 |
| aperson | rickyrickyricky, likely not | 16:26 |
| rickyrickyricky | i WAS using vista on the computer i wanted to try ubuntu on | 16:26 |
| mic69 | mi serve un canale in italiano | 16:27 |
| rickyrickyricky | until ubuntu decided to be shit | 16:27 |
| sal_ | aperson true there | 16:27 |
| * Dr_Willis_ waits for the fun. | 16:27 | |
| rickyrickyricky | 9.10 | 16:27 |
| Daemonis | Ricky: If your using windows, right click my computer and go to "manage" and then go to disc management... from there you can create free space by shrinking your other partition | 16:27 |
| Daemonis | Then you can use that space to install Ubuntu | 16:27 |
| ganymede | hi, i don't know how much help i'll get since i'm using a daily-builds PPA, but the daily build of thunderbird 3.0 is "shredding" my inbox...is there a PPA that rolls out stable releases rather than daily source builds? i'd like to install 3.0.0 released and have it update through apt instead of a manual install. (also, i'm assuming 3.0 won't make it into karmic's official repo cause if it is, i can just wait) | 16:27 |
| rickyrickyricky | oh, of course, as i get the installation CD, i am to automatically know that i need to seek assistance and shrink a partition without ever being told to do so | 16:28 |
| Dr_Willis_ | ganymede: normally theres not version changes once a release is released. thats why ppa are so popular. | 16:28 |
| ganymede | the exact issues that i'm having is that new emails fetched through POP are just not showing up in my inbox. i hear the new mail sound, and i see Inbox (1) to indicate 1 unread message but that unread message is nowhere to be found. anyone else having this issue? | 16:28 |
| mihau | hello | 16:28 |
| arand | BluesKaj: Hmm, I'm confused now, it was you that was asking for help right? :D | 16:28 |
| kinja-sheep | ganymede: My understanding with Ubuntu policy is that they only do security and bug fixes. It'll be rolled upon in Lucid. | 16:28 |
| Daemonis | Ricky: If you used the manual option you could have probably used the ubuntu cd to shrink the partition too | 16:28 |
| mihau | how can I change encoding form utf-8 to iso-8859-2 | 16:28 |
| sal_ | a bit of advance research goes a long way | 16:28 |
| mihau | i tried to google it, change some values, and still nothing | 16:28 |
| mihau | system is 9.10 | 16:28 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Daemonis: the automatic option auto resized here.. but who knows what some people do :) | 16:29 |
| Mewses | Question: Im trying to get my internet to work on my baseunit, its a wired connection. Im able to ping sites like google.com with their ip, not their http address, so i guess its the DNS there. But shouldn't my connection work since i can ping sites but i cant access the internet, what do you think? please help me out. thanks. | 16:29 |
| rickyrickyricky | nope | 16:29 |
| aperson | Daemonis, the installer should just automatically do by default | 16:29 |
| poisonborz | could anyone help with my installation problem? ubuntu installer doesn't see my sata hdd, even if bios and livecd nautilus properly displays it | 16:29 |
| sal_ | ricky is your internet wireless, or can you plug into a wire? | 16:29 |
| rickyrickyricky | every single thing i tried other than formatting gave me an error | 16:29 |
| abe3k | guys, I'm having a problem, under the sys/admin/software sources/ when I choose the "Select Best Server" for the package download the application crashes, anyone else is experiencing this ? | 16:29 |
| newhunter | Ricky: I recommend you use the partitionmagic program | 16:29 |
| rickyrickyricky | no, it's wireless | 16:29 |
| coachz | how do i make a shortcut to run gnome-terminal and run my command tail -f myfile ? | 16:29 |
| BluesKaj | arand, well, I just have one ptoblem and that's with flv file playback , after downloading | 16:30 |
| Daemonis | poisonborz: does windows see the hard drive? | 16:30 |
| kinja-sheep | coachz: Right-click and create "Launcher" | 16:30 |
| simplexio | Mewses: dns server isnt configured right , try ping dns server ip | 16:30 |
| Dr_Willis_ | coachz: for xterm i know theres a xterm -e 'tail -f whtever' option.. I think gnome-terminal has a similer option. | 16:30 |
| mic69 | hello | 16:30 |
| coachz | kinja-sheep, what to put for the command ? | 16:30 |
| dimitar | how to change settings in conky? | 16:30 |
| rickyrickyricky | i was pretty sure that ubuntu was made out to be user friendly, yet, nothing is explained, and i'm constantly confronted with jargon and abbrieviations | 16:30 |
| sal_ | ricky do you have access to a wired connection at all? | 16:30 |
| poisonborz | daemonis: good question, I get an rc dvd and try it.. | 16:30 |
| Dr_Willis_ | coachz: yea. gnome terminal also supports the -e option | 16:31 |
| arand | BluesKaj: mhm, and it might be that your file is corrupted there, was what I was implying. | 16:31 |
| ikonia | rickyrickyricky: https://help.ubuntu.com for an introduction | 16:31 |
| coachz | thanks Dr_Willis_ ! | 16:31 |
| kinja-sheep | coachz: Whatever command you want to run. Dr_Willis_'s advice sounds good too. | 16:31 |
| dimitar | how to change settings in conky? | 16:31 |
| Dr_Willis_ | coachz: 'gnome-terminal -e tail -f whatever' | 16:31 |
| coachz | perfect, you guys rock | 16:31 |
| Daemonis | poisonborz: yeah. it could be the HDD itself... I've had several hard drives that for some reason were unable to be booted too but still functioned for data | 16:31 |
| BluesKaj | arand, the audio portion plays on vlc, but not the video | 16:31 |
| kinja-sheep | !conky | dimitar | 16:31 |
| coachz | do i put the tail -f what in quotes ? | 16:31 |
| Daemonis | Perhaps due to a currupt master boot record | 16:31 |
| Dr_Willis_ | coachz: there were some tools that can embed the tail-f output in a root 'window' so its below all other things and on the dekstop | 16:31 |
| newhunter | Mewses: did you check out about proxy configurations on you internet server? | 16:32 |
| rickyrickyricky | and basically, ubuntu is ugly, and incompatible with anything you want to use, i can't see why ANYONE would use ubuntu instead of windows 7 | 16:32 |
| Mewses | Simplexico: On what computer, the one i got problems with or on this computer? | 16:32 |
| ikonia | rickyrickyricky: no problem them, don't use it | 16:32 |
| aperson | rickyrickyricky, no one is forcing you to use ubuntu | 16:32 |
| sal_ | bye ricky | 16:32 |
| Daemonis | poisonborz: also you should check up and see if there are any specific drivers you need, for your motherboard | 16:32 |
| ikonia | rickyrickyricky: the link I've pointed you will explain how to potentially change it and get more out of it, if you don't like it though, don't use it | 16:32 |
| Mewses | Newhunter: Its my router im having problems with i guess. | 16:32 |
| mihau | can anyone help me to change encoding? my system is ubuntu 9.10 | 16:33 |
| newhunter | rickyrickyricky: you are out of your mind! | 16:33 |
| rickyrickyricky | i'm trying to get answers as to why i wasn't allowed to do anything except for formatting | 16:33 |
| poisonborz | Daemonis: you mean for ubuntu? it's an a7n8x, so nothing exotic.. | 16:33 |
| Daemonis | poisonborz: sometimes if your motherboard doesn't support sata (you use a sata pci card for example) in order for an os to read it before installing you need to load sata drivers | 16:33 |
| ikonia | rickyrickyricky: you're allowed to do many things, if you read the document I've given you it will be a solid introduction | 16:33 |
| aperson | rickyrickyricky, it's your tone, no one likes to help someone that's set on complaining | 16:33 |

| bazhang | rickyrickyricky, please stop that | 16:34 |
| sipior | rickyrickyricky: do you need your bottle? | 16:34 |
| rickyrickyricky | not "getting more out of ubuntu" | 16:34 |
| Mewses | sipior: Highfive | 16:34 |
| sal_ | ricky you are NOT trying to get answers | 16:34 |
| ikonia | rickyrickyricky: ahh, so you've not used ubuntu so you're earlier comments where nonsense | 16:34 |
| arand | rickyrickyricky: so what error are you getting? | 16:34 |
| Daemonis | poisonborz: Yeah, for Ubuntu. I've never needed it but I think it gives you the option of loading specific hardware drivers before you start the install, just like windows does | 16:34 |
| rickyrickyricky | i have ubuntu installed on the computer i'm talking about | 16:34 |
| rickyrickyricky | the one i formatted | 16:34 |
| rickyrickyricky | to install ubuntu | 16:34 |
| ikonia | rickyrickyricky: so then the installer worked and there is no problem then | 16:34 |
| rickyrickyricky | and it has no drivers | 16:34 |

| rickyrickyricky | and now i have no way of reinstalling vista | 16:35 |
| ikonia | rickyrickyricky: you're connected to the internet now, if you read the guide I sent you it will explain about propriatary drivers | 16:35 |
| rickyrickyricky | ew | 16:35 |
| Daemonis | poisonborz: but if your bios recognizes the drive then my guess would be that it was a currupt master boot record | 16:35 |
| newhunter | Mewses: hum.. so I think you should try to reconfigure your router | 16:35 |
| bhuvi | lm_sensors does not report fan speed in my ubuntu 9.10 but it worked fine in my ubuntu 8.04 | 16:35 |
| sal_ | ricky what wireless device are you using, know the chipset? | 16:35 |
| sipior | rickyrickyricky: surely you can simply use the media vista came on to reinstall? | 16:35 |
| dimitar | how to install atheros wireless driver in ubuntu? | 16:36 |
| aperson | sipior, it likely came installed with only a restore partition | 16:36 |
| Mewses | newhunter: where should i start, haha. I've setup a DDNS using this guide: http://en-us-support.belkin.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/44 | 16:36 |
| Dr_Willis_ | bhuvi: thats weird. Not sure what to say other then check for bug reports on it. | 16:36 |
| rickyrickyricky | no i dont know the chipset | 16:36 |
| rickyrickyricky | and no | 16:36 |
| rickyrickyricky | i wasnt given a disk to install vista | 16:36 |
| Mewses | Newhunter: Idk what else to do rly, maybe restarting it? | 16:36 |
| rickyrickyricky | it came with the computer | 16:36 |
| sipior | aperson: another point against windows, i guess | 16:36 |
| dimitar | how to install atheros wireless driver in ubuntu? | 16:36 |
| aperson | sipior, indeed | 16:36 |
| Dr_Willis_ | and No you dident bother to make the backup disks they try to get you to make... | 16:37 |
| arand | dimitar: you have looked at "hardware drivers" in the admin menu? | 16:37 |
| poisonborz | Daemon: ok, I'll try to reformat the drive again, and test if win install detects it. thanks a lot | 16:37 |
| dimitar | arand yes there is nothing | 16:37 |
| sal_ | ricky follow dimitar, a good approach | 16:37 |
| ikonia | rickyrickyricky: vista we can't help you with - however we can help you with the propriatary drivers if you check the document I sent you | 16:37 |
| Mewses | newhunter: Im able to ping my dns from this computer, im using xp on this one since its my schools computer. it works fine. but i cant ping it from my defected comp. | 16:37 |
| bhuvi | Dr_Willis_, k ill check for it | 16:37 |
| rickyrickyricky | ikonia: i dont see anything about "propriatary drivers" | 16:37 |
| Dr_Willis_ | bhuvi: lm-sensors reads info from the kernel stuff.. so im not sure how that would vanish. It could be theres some moduiles that need tobe loaded. You did run the 'sensors-detect' command ? | 16:38 |
| bhuvi | Dr_Willis_, k ill check for it | 16:38 |
| newhunter | Mewses: if you are not going to have problems in restarting it, it would be a good shot... | 16:38 |
| Daemonis | How do you rum lm-sensors from the terminal? | 16:38 |

| aeon-ltd | tobiasz: pcmanfm? most people prefer that over bloated crap like nautilus | 16:45 |
| bassliner | tobiasz: and it DOES remember what i use to open stuff with. | 16:45 |
| tobiasz | bassliner it doesn't for me | 16:45 |
| tobiasz | pcmanfm is a big hole of uselessness for me | 16:45 |
| shahego | bassliner, do you knw how to use kopete as ymessenger for video call | 16:45 |
| vantom | hi | 16:46 |
| bassliner | tobiasz: hm, actually it really doesn't remember it. i was confusing it with thunar. | 16:46 |
| newhunter | mewseslol: its likely a driver problem, did the problem happen suddenly? | 16:46 |
| bassliner | tobiasz: you should give thunar a try. :-) | 16:46 |
| tobiasz | I will because pcmanfm is useless garbage | 16:46 |
| mewseslol | newhunter: no, i installed Ubuntu 9.04 yesterday | 16:46 |
| bhuvi | pepin, do you get the same when sudo ? | 16:47 |
| newhunter | mewseslol: hum.. | 16:47 |
| h4f1 | hi | 16:47 |
| mewseslol | newhunter: I've done alot of changes so im thinking on doing a reformat to make things easier | 16:47 |
| h4f1 | any one hear me ? | 16:47 |
| shahego | halooooo....anybody can help on ymessenger in ubuntu for video call | 16:48 |
| pepin | bhuvi: I dont get a chance to get to a prompt to sudo.. I've tried ln-s'n sudo to /bin/true or /bin/dash to see if it fixed it | 16:48 |
| pepin | bhuvi: but still.. I get the message | 16:48 |
| sal_ | ricky i think thats an audio driver | 16:48 |

| Samual-Ubuntu | Hey, i'm using xserver-xgl with xinerama on three monitors and i'm getting an error while trying to start gnome-settings-daemon -- http://pastebin.com/m12d9202 | 16:48 |
| mewseslol | newhunter: My network card is "marvell yukon 88e8056" | 16:49 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | Any idea what's wrong? | 16:49 |
| newhunter | mewseslol: now I am quite sure its a problem with the driver you have installed, did you check out whether others have faced the same problem? Maybe they have found a solution | 16:49 |
| bhuvi | pepin, i think you might be missing something in /etc/hosts file | 16:49 |
| ikonia | rickyrickyricky: is that your wirless card ? | 16:49 |
| bhuvi | pepin, can you look at that file | 16:49 |
| newhunter | mewseslol: anyway, try to install another network driver | 16:49 |
| sal_ | ricky find the line with 'network controller' | 16:49 |
| mewseslol | newhunter: I used 8hrs of my life yesterday by using google :) | 16:49 |
| pepin | hmm.. I havent tried that yet.. like a proper hostname, or localhost? | 16:49 |
| shahego | ubottu, i had tried out kopete but unable video call/chat | 16:50 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 16:50 |
| rickyrickyricky | ikonia | 16:50 |
| Daemonis | Does anyone know how to set default programs by extensions? I want to set a program for music files and a different one for video files. | 16:50 |
| ikonia | rickyrickyricky: yes ? | 16:50 |
| rickyrickyricky | i need the broadcom b43 wireless driver | 16:50 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Daemonis: right click on the file with the extension, properties -> check the tabs | 16:50 |
| rickyrickyricky | thats what i can see in system > administration > hardware drivers | 16:50 |
| carpediem | Samual-Ubuntu: I think I had that exact error using the open source nvidia driver, went away after switching to the closed binary | 16:50 |
| ikonia | rickyrickyricky: ok, so enable it ? | 16:50 |
| newhunter | mewseslol: hum.. it sucks.. | 16:51 |
| rickyrickyricky | but i try to activate and i cant download and install cos i need internet connection, and i cant connect because i dont have the driver | 16:51 |
| error404notfound | i am running karmic and using startupmanager to set http://www.ubuntu-art.org/content/show.php/Dell+Usplash?content=92805 , Problem is no matter what USplash i set beside the karmic's original i instead see a strange splash with circle, rectangles and etc, like when you are changing your TV's settings or playing with monitor contrast | 16:51 |
| bhuvi | pepin, i got that error in the past and corrected it by correcting the contents of the file | 16:51 |
| shahego | Dr_Willis_, i had tried kopete but unable to use video call/chat...???? | 16:51 |
| rickyrickyricky | i need the driver to download the driver, | 16:51 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Its always so annoying when you get in a 'catch 22' situation when needing drivers | 16:51 |
| mewseslol | newhunter: im formatting my computer now, things will get easier | 16:51 |
| ikonia | rickyrickyricky: ahh, I see, for that you'll need to hook up on a wired connection to download it | 16:51 |
| Dr_Willis_ | shahego: No idea. last time i did a video chat was 3+ years ago | 16:51 |
| sal_ | ricky please listen close - you are getting close. the b43 driver is possible. do you know which one? b43 18? or whate ver .. | 16:51 |
| rickyrickyricky | -_- | 16:51 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | carpediem, i'm using the proprietary one from nvidia.com. | 16:51 |
| pepin | bhuvi looks like I dont have a /etc/hosts file. lol. I'm gonna try that.. thanks a bunch! :) | 16:51 |
| rickyrickyricky | i dont have the time or patience or resources to do that | 16:51 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | carpediem, so that is not it. | 16:51 |
| ikonia | rickyrickyricky: ok - then it's not going to happen, | 16:52 |
| Dr_Willis_ | rickyrickyricky: so.. give up? or run a cable and take the few min it takes.. | 16:52 |
| bhuvi | Dr_Willis_, if i report a bug on it,which package i should report against can u help me? | 16:52 |
| rickyrickyricky | can i not download it on this pc, then use a usb stick to move it to that pc ? | 16:52 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | carpediem, but again, i'm using xserver-xgl.. And it works when xserver-xgl is disabled. | 16:52 |
| newhunter | mewseslol: formating its not always the best solution | 16:52 |
| Dr_Willis_ | bhuvi: id say start with lm-sensors - they may be able t point it to a better place. | 16:52 |
| ikonia | rickyrickyricky: you can, but that will take longer than hookinh your other pc up to a wire | 16:52 |
| shahego | Dr_Willis_, i had install skype but nw like to remove it, hw am i going about it thro terminal...??? | 16:52 |
| ikonia | rickyrickyricky: so if you have no time to plug in a cable, you won't have the time or pateince to do this | 16:52 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: i think the b43 driver is on the ubuntu cd | 16:52 |
| rickyrickyricky | i dont have a wire | 16:52 |
| Dr_Willis_ | shahego: sudo apt-get remove <whatever> | 16:53 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: no wait thats bcmwl. sorry | 16:53 |
| newhunter | mewseslol: hum.. try some proprietary drivers | 16:53 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: you need firmware | 16:53 |
| ikonia | maco: didn't think so | 16:53 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: if you have the windows driver, the firmware can be extracted from that | 16:53 |
| ikonia | rickyrickyricky: well, it's not going to happen | 16:53 |
| rickyrickyricky | where can i download the b43 driver then | 16:53 |
| mewseslol | newhunter: In this case it is. The computer doesn't have anything on it. and its a monster so the format will go fast. i've already begun | 16:53 |
| bhuvi | Dr_Willis_, it was made impossible to report a bug without a package name | 16:53 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky, ikonia: bcmwl and b43 driver are both included. b43 needs firmware though, and that firmware can come from a windows driver | 16:53 |
| carpediem | Samual-Ubuntu: um, so you are using a non-standard X server that hasn't been necessary for years and wondering why you have issues? | 16:53 |
| rickyrickyricky | -_- | 16:53 |
| Dr_Willis_ | bhuvi: report it on lm-sensors if the 'sensors' output is not showing the proper info i guess | 16:53 |
| ikonia | maco: if he won't plugin a cable extracting driver files is not going to happen | 16:54 |
| rickyrickyricky | so, what the hell do i do | 16:54 |
| rickyrickyricky | windows was formatted off | 16:54 |
| rickyrickyricky | so i doubt i have the firmware | 16:54 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: you're on a secondary computer right now | 16:54 |
| rickyrickyricky | it must be available somewhere else | 16:54 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | carpediem, not "wondering why", just trying to fix why :P And, i'm only doing it so I can have support for 3 monitors with Compiz and Xinerama. | 16:54 |
| ikonia | rickyrickyricky: buy an ethernet cable, they are handy to have around | 16:54 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: download teh windows driver from the internet | 16:54 |
| sal_ | ricky read this page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx | 16:54 |
| rickyrickyricky | what driver | 16:54 |
| newhunter | mewseslol: ok... why dont you try the new ubuntu? | 16:54 |
| shahego | Dr-Willis, can ymessenger be install in ubuntu 9.10...hw to install???? | 16:55 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: the one for your wireless | 16:55 |
| bhuvi | Dr_Willis_, when i try against with lm_sensors it says they are not using launchpad and they are asking help from me what should i do | 16:55 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: whatever company made your computer should have it onlne | 16:55 |
| sal_ | ricky toward the bottom is detail on setting up with no alternate internet connection | 16:55 |
| mewseslol | newhunter: Im going to try 9.04. isn't that the new one? | 16:55 |
| thiebaude | 9.10 | 16:55 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: then get the b43-fwcutter deb from packages.ubuntu.com | 16:55 |
| Dr_Willis_ | bhuvi: no idea then. check the lm_sensors web site i guess | 16:55 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: put them both on a flash drive and transfer it to your ubuntu computer | 16:55 |
| carpediem | Samual-Ubuntu: hmm, yeah, I've set up 3 under standard ubuntu install, the lack of Xinerama support does suck, not being able to drag windows around. | 16:55 |
| sal_ | rickyrickyricky, you can download the files, etc to a usb then unload them to ubuntu | 16:55 |
| maco | ikonia: no need to be so difficult | 16:56 |
| newhunter | mewseslol:no its not.. the newer version is ubuntu 9.10 | 16:56 |
| ikonia | maco: not at all, if someone hasn't got the patience to plug in a cable - they won't be able to do what you've suggested | 16:56 |
| mewseslol | newhunter: ok, ill try it out, live-cd exists yes? | 16:56 |
| maco | ikonia: yes they can. theyre on another computer and suggested *on their own* using a flash drive, did they not? | 16:56 |
| rickyrickyricky | gonna try now | 16:57 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | carpediem, Indeed.. For me: It's either full 3 screen support with Compiz... or Windows.... So i'm trying the best I can to get this working properly. | 16:57 |
| shahego | newhunter, any ymessenger can be install in ubuntu for video call/chat ????? | 16:57 |
| maco | ikonia: not everyone has a cable, and not all computers have rj45 jacks | 16:57 |
| ikonia | maco: well, lets see | 16:57 |
| sal_ | rickyrickyricky, when this is all done, goto your administration tab to drivers to enable the b43 | 16:57 |
| newhunter | mewseslol: I am using and I didnt have any problem.. yes there is a live CD | 16:57 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | carpediem, I would use Xinerama alone, but that sucks as i'm sure you know. | 16:57 |
| mewseslol | newhunter: thank you! ill try this out. may i contact you later? | 16:57 |
| sal_ | check you packages to see the b43 fwcutter is installed as well | 16:57 |
| ccr | mld | 16:58 |
| maco | sal_: i told him how to fetch it from packages.ubuntu.com | 16:58 |
| mewseslol | 2.5mb/s, lol. this wont take to long (brag) | 16:58 |
| ikonia | sal_: can't do that as he has not interenet connection | 16:58 |
| bhuvi | Dr_Willis_, i tried reporting bug a week ago and got angry and i stopped trying because if i tried reporting against acpi i got same message and i also tried others related to it but with no success | 16:58 |
| newhunter | mewseslol: yes | 16:59 |
| sal_ | ikonia, its all in the page link. he has the same problem i did, the b43 nonsense with no internet connection. its possible | 16:59 |
| sal_ | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx | 16:59 |
| ikonia | sal_: I agree it's possible | 16:59 |
| Dr_Willis_ | forum thread i saw mentions using the Broadcomn 43xx chipset and using the sta drivers instead. (no idea which works ) --> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1286763&mode=linear | 16:59 |
| Dr_Willis_ | bhuvi: ive not reported a bug since beta. and even then.. all i really did was confirm other peoples bugs. | 17:00 |
| newhunter | mewseslol: do you want my email? | 17:00 |
| shahego | newhunter, can u help me on w to install ymessenger that can be use in ubuntu 9.10 | 17:00 |
| xckpd7 | can anyone recommend/not recommend using IEs4Linux? | 17:01 |
| ikonia | xckpd7: I recommend not | 17:01 |
| Dr_Willis_ | xckpd7: its designed to just test out your html/sites to be sure they render proplery in IE. not for use for 'browsing' | 17:01 |
| pepin | bhuvi: no dice.. although, I thought that'd do it. | 17:01 |
| Dr_Willis_ | xckpd7: so what do you want to 'use' it for? | 17:01 |
| kinja-sheep | xckpd7: Not recommended because IE is one of Microsoft's hell minions. | 17:02 |
| newhunter | mewseslol: yes.. check out pidgin | 17:02 |
| xckpd7 | Dr_Willis_: doing html/css | 17:02 |
| BluesKaj | arand, fixed my VLC problem ..flv plays now ...seems there's a 20sec delay til the video activates dunno why | 17:02 |
| xckpd7 | Dr_Willis_: I was told to use a VM but I really don't want to if IEs4Linux is good (I was told it was unstable by someone but I want confirmation) | 17:02 |
| Dr_Willis_ | xckpd7: then use it to 'verify' your stuff works in IE - or just use a spare machine that has windows... your decision. | 17:02 |
| Dr_Willis_ | xckpd7: or use a vm. Thers even live-windows cd's you cold use in a vm. (not legal however) | 17:03 |
| arand | BluesKaj: heh... well, wonder if converting it to another format might fixit. | 17:03 |
| sal_ | rickyrickyricky, not all b43 drivers are supported. you should confirm what you have b43xx ?? | 17:03 |
| newhunter | mewseslol: its a good messenger for ubuntu | 17:03 |
| kinja-sheep | xckpd7: Simple if statement. if(ie), pageRender(false) && displayMessage("Have some decency. Use Firefox or Opera"); | 17:03 |
| bhuvi | pepin, is the problem solved now | 17:03 |
| pepin | bhuvi: no.. same message. | 17:04 |
| xckpd7 | Dr_Willis_: Ok so the issue is, I have a VM now but I want to avoid using it (only if IEs4linux runs alright). I was told to stay away from IEs4Linux but I don't know if that is good advice/bad advice | 17:04 |
| perlmonkey2 | I've noticed that after the latest kernel updates my cpuspeed daemon isn't working correctly. I'm stuck in the lowest speed no matter what I do or run. Only way to speed it up is to manually set it. | 17:04 |

| rickyrickyricky | cant get it to work | 17:05 |
| rickyrickyricky | it says as step 1 "Install b43-fwcutter (without the firmware downloading and being set up) which should be located on the Ubuntu 9.04 install disc (add it as a repository in Synaptic) or from /var/cache/apt/archives on an Ubuntu computer with b43 installed. " | 17:06 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: did you get the deb? | 17:06 |
| rickyrickyricky | but it isnt in /var/cache/apt/archives and i have no idea where to find it on the install disk | 17:06 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: right itd only be in that directory on one that already has it | 17:06 |
| rickyrickyricky | i downloaded the two files on the link you gave me | 17:06 |
| rickyrickyricky | put on memory stick and put on the ubuntu pc | 17:07 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: im not sure where on the cd it is either, but you got the b43-fwcutter from packages.ubuntu.com right? | 17:07 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: double click on the deb that's on the stick | 17:07 |
| rickyrickyricky | couldnt find it | 17:07 |
| ikonia | maco: you won't be able to get it off the CD easy, as the CD is squash FS that will need decompression | 17:07 |
| bhuvi | pepin, have you googled for it | 17:07 |
| rickyrickyricky | the one that ends in .o ? | 17:07 |
| maco | ikonia: it just needs to be loop mounted | 17:07 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: no. ends in .deb | 17:07 |
| pepin | bhuvi very much so. | 17:07 |

| rickyrickyricky | they're the only two files | 17:08 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: ah thats the windows driver, ok | 17:08 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: but on http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/b43-fwcutter | 17:08 |
| lotusofblack | i'm trying to install, phc it's a php compiler. i'm having issues with the config file finding the boostlib. I have a local copy of the library on my computer in the /opt folder. The problem i'm having is it's asking for me to make the following change, "please specify $BOOST_ROOT in your enviroment". Where do I make this config change at in my build enviroment? | 17:08 |
| Dr_Willis_ | hecato: not sure ftp can work that way. at least not with a simple right click/share.... | 17:08 |
| rickyrickyricky | ah right | 17:08 |
| denethor | someone running 8.10 and could tell me why my evdev.ko is not working as I expect? http://paste.ubuntu.com/339342/ (See line 360,361). I run this with sudo ./evtest /dev/input/event1 hich is my keyboard. But the program doesn't go past line 360. evdev is loaded. | 17:08 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: see at the bottom it says i386 and amd64? click the one for whichever architecture you're using, then click one of the download links | 17:08 |
| hecato | Dr_Willis_, it can if the app is thinked like that | 17:08 |
| rickyrickyricky | i have no idea which architecture i'm using | 17:09 |
| Moonlit | rickyrickyricky - if in doubt, i386 | 17:10 |
| Dr_Willis_ | hecato: what app? You mean if the ftp server is compiled that way? cant say that ive ever seen a ftp server add that feature to gnome.. then again.. FTP is somthing i now avoid. I use ssh. | 17:10 |
| xckpd7 | can I get help installing wine on ubuntu? | 17:10 |
| ikonia | !wine > xckpd7 | 17:10 |
| ubottu | xckpd7, please see my private message | 17:10 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: "uname -a" if it says x86_64 then its amd64 | 17:10 |
| Dr_Willis_ | xckpd7: sudo apt-get install wine dont work? | 17:10 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: if it says umm... i think i686, then you need i386 | 17:10 |
| bhuvi | pepin, id say that your problem is more serious than i had,i cannot help you and im sorry to say so | 17:10 |
| xckpd7 | Dr_Willis_: thank you, kind of new at using this | 17:10 |
| hecato | then there is no app | 17:11 |
| Moonlit | anyway, I'm guessing someone here probably has some kind of clue, what's the deal with being able to change the root and user passwords using recovery console? | 17:11 |
| Dr_Willis_ | xckpd7: for the latest versions of wine. You may want to add the winehq repos. | 17:11 |
| Moonlit | that's a huge security hole... in fact, it's not even a hole, it's a gaping chasm | 17:11 |
| pepin | bhuvi: thank you for your help. | 17:11 |
| xckpd7 | Dr_Willis_: it's already installing: should I cancel? what do you think? | 17:11 |
| sal_ | maco if the cd is enabled in software sources .. can run ~$ sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter ? yes? | 17:11 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Moonlit: if you want to disable it.. password lock the Grub stuff.. its been discussed in many forum threads. | 17:12 |
| Dr_Willis_ | xckpd7: may as well use whats in the repos. | 17:12 |
| lotusofblack | let me rephrase my question, can someone tell me where the build enviroment configuration file is stored? | 17:12 |
| rickyrickyricky | maco>rickyrickyricky: "uname -a" if it says x86_64 then its amd64 | 17:12 |
| darthanubis | Moonlit, if someone has access to your PC to USE a recovery disk, your screwed ANYWAY. | 17:12 |
| Dr_Willis_ | xckpd7: depending on what you are running in wine . You may want the latest. | 17:12 |
| rickyrickyricky | says "uname-a" where ? | 17:12 |
| Moonlit | Dr_Willis_ - really shouldn't be like that by default though, should it? | 17:12 |
| xckpd7 | Dr_Willis_: IEs4Linux | 17:12 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Moonlit: err.. No. | 17:12 |
| Moonlit | darthanubis - but it's not a secondary disk, it's on the GRUB menu of a clean install | 17:12 |
| davo | Hey how do I change my username in irc | 17:12 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: if you run "uname -a" on the ubuntu computer | 17:12 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: in a terminal | 17:13 |
| Moonlit | davo - /nick newname | 17:13 |
| rickyrickyricky | oh ok | 17:13 |
| Dr_Willis_ | davo: /nick BillGatesTheMan | 17:13 |
| rickyrickyricky | brb | 17:13 |

| maco | rickyrickyricky: take teh quotes out? | 17:14 |
| rickyrickyricky | yeh | 17:14 |
| davo | Can you guys help me with some xorg problems I am having or is this the wrong place | 17:14 |
| Dr_Willis_ | davo: depends on the problem. State the issue and see | 17:14 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: did you remember the space before the - ? | 17:14 |
| rickyrickyricky | oh | 17:14 |
| rickyrickyricky | no | 17:14 |
| rickyrickyricky | :P | 17:14 |
| rickyrickyricky | didnt notice | 17:14 |
| FloodBot2 | rickyrickyricky: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 17:14 |
| virus_found | Hello. | 17:14 |
| Padraig | can someone help me out im having a problem with my wired networking in Ubuntu 9.04 | 17:15 |
| Listerthrawn | moonlit: Tough one really. There's lots of ways to change a password of any OS if you have access to the physical machine. Even if you password protect grub | 17:15 |
| virus_found | Will it install grub from a live-cd? | 17:15 |
| virus_found | mkdir -p /mnt/linux; mount /dev/sdaX /mnt/linux; grub-install /dev/sda --root-directory=/mnt/linux | 17:15 |
| AutumnAi | Hello everyone. I have a bit of a problem. Could someone help me out? | 17:15 |
| rickyrickyricky | i686 | 17:15 |
| virus_found | sdaX=/ | 17:15 |
| rickyrickyricky | whats that then | 17:15 |
| maco | virus_found: should, yeah | 17:15 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Moonlit: i can change/remove windows passwords in 98/95/xp/vista on all the users also :) if i have physical access. | 17:15 |
| pk | Is there some method to install ubuntu directly from Internet.......i just dont have any boot media nor i can have | 17:15 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: ok you want the i386 link | 17:15 |
| rickyrickyricky | kk | 17:15 |
| nozes | e noz | 17:16 |
| Dr_Willis_ | pk: it can get very complex. and you would need a spare pc to work as the psx server. I think | 17:16 |
| virus_found | maco: it says: error no such device: 51e85e60 | 17:16 |
| davo | Well I just installed x and when I use the startx command I get "cannot find screen" error, and when I use X -confif /root/xorg.conf.new I get an nvidia logo then a black screen, and seemingly no errors in logs. | 17:16 |
| ax-ax | oh | 17:16 |
| chadi | Hello. Today, I bought a laptop with windows 7 pre-installed. I would like to keep 7, but install XPin parallel, then install ubuntu. XP first or Ubuntu first? | 17:16 |
| Dr_Willis_ | !install | pk | 17:16 |
| ubottu | pk: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - Don't want to use a CD? See http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate | 17:16 |
| davo | chadi: XP | 17:16 |
| Dr_Willis_ | chadi: i woldent bother with xp at all.. but i guess do xp first.. | 17:16 |
| Moonlit | Dr_Willis_ / Listerthrawn - well, yeah, I'm aware of the myriad bootdiscs for various platforms and whatnot, but giving someone access just like that seems pretty feeble, any hurdle is a good one, but this just seems like there might as well be a "don't know the password, let me in anyway" button on the login screen | 17:16 |
| ax-ax | i switched to debian so i wont be using ubuntu anymore, meaning that i will change my autojoin | 17:16 |
| AutumnAi | My Windows 7 partition disappeared from GRUB, and I don't know why. | 17:16 |
| ax-ax | bye :) | 17:16 |
| chadi | Dr_Willis_ why not? 7 sucks.... | 17:16 |
| Moonlit | heh | 17:17 |
| rickyrickyricky | so i just double click the .deb file ? | 17:17 |
| Moonlit | why does it suck, chadi? | 17:17 |
| mneptok | !offtopic | 17:17 |
| sal_ | maco ? ~$ sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter with cd enabled in software sources? | 17:17 |
| pk | actually i dont have a cd reader and usb boot enabled board...what now | 17:17 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 17:17 |
| davo | chadi: You are first person I heard say that | 17:17 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Moonlit: if it was the default.. then everyone would be complaing about it beign the default.. just like they complain about sudo being used | 17:17 |
| maco | sal_: thatd work | 17:17 |
| chadi | because it's so vista-ish | 17:17 |
| sal_ | maco thx. | 17:17 |
| Besogon | I need CAD to open AutoCAD2007 files. What's your advices (pro/engeener can do it, but what's with medusa4 and VariCAD?) | 17:17 |
| AutumnAi | It's a lot lighter on resources than Vista. | 17:17 |
| chadi | but that's offtopic anyway | 17:18 |
| Moonlit | Dr_Willis_ - what I meant by default was that with a fresh, unmodified install (ie: what most "end users" would be using), the recovery console is there for anyone to use | 17:18 |
| mneptok | Moonlit: physical access is usually Game Over, anyway. encrypt your partitions with dm0crypt if you're paranoid. | 17:18 |
| davo | exit | 17:18 |
| chadi | AutumnAi you said your 7 partition was gone? Were you able to re-access it? | 17:18 |
| AutumnAi | Chadi: I can access the files through Linux, but it disappeared | 17:19 |
| perlmonkey2 | so no one has noticed anything wrong with cpuspeed? | 17:19 |
| perlmonkey2 | like it not working anymore? | 17:19 |
| Moonlit | mneptok - it shouldn't be "well, I'll encrypt everything" vs "I'm screwed anyway, might as well let them in" | 17:19 |
| denethor | okay, could someone compile this standard evtest program works for you? spitting out keyboard events. http://paste.ubuntu.com/339342/ on 8.10 they vanish | 17:19 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Moonlit: we get a dozen people in here a week that cant even rember their login password.. :) you want to add another password.. heh.. of course a live cd, and poof the grub protetion is pointless.. but this was discisseed in amazing detail about a year ago when some security/linux site mentioned it. I forget most of the other arguments | 17:19 |
| AutumnAi | This is my first time using IRC. | 17:19 |
| maco | Moonlit: if someone's got physical access, you're screwed anyway :) | 17:19 |
| maco | Moonlit: not like you cant boot a live cd to get in | 17:19 |
| Intelli | I can't get my wireless to work. | 17:20 |
| Moonlit | maco - my netbook has no CD drive, and I can disable booting from anything other than the HDD, usually that would be enough, with Ubuntu that's not the case, I'd have to password GRUB too | 17:20 |
| Intelli | It is a Linksys wusb100. | 17:20 |
| Moonlit | which means 3 passwords: BIOS, GRUB, Ubuntu | 17:20 |
| maco | Moonlit: what, disable in the bios? like the bios ever stopped anyone! | 17:20 |
| rickyrickyricky | okay, i double clicked and installed the firmware | 17:20 |
| rickyrickyricky | now what | 17:20 |
| ikonia | Moonlit: tha'ts the same for any os | 17:20 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: you installed the firmware extractor really... | 17:20 |
| rickyrickyricky | well yeh | 17:20 |
| perlmonkey2 | Moonlit: if they have physical access they'll just take your harddrive and mount it on their machine. | 17:20 |
| rickyrickyricky | double clicked the .deb | 17:21 |
| rickyrickyricky | and it installed or whatever | 17:21 |
| Moonlit | maco - I think there's a point being missed here though, it shouldn't be all or nothing, any protection is better than none | 17:21 |
| djeday | hi all, how to configure trackpoint on lenovo notebook to scrool text with middle button? | 17:21 |
| Moonlit | perlmonkey2 - not in this case, it's soldered to the motherboard :P | 17:21 |
| ikonia | Moonlit: it's not an ubuntu issue - this is PC hardware design issue | 17:21 |
| Intelli | The Linux driver won't compile and ndiswrapper doesn't seem to work. | 17:21 |
| Listerthrawn | Moonlit: You are winning me round here. Security is about layers | 17:21 |
| perlmonkey2 | Moonlit: hah, nice | 17:21 |
| pk | are there Intetrnet Netboot servers? | 17:21 |
| rickyrickyricky | maco: what do i do now ? | 17:21 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: now you have to use it on the windows driver to extract the firmware. i think you had a link you were reading? | 17:21 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: i havent done this in about a year... | 17:21 |
| maco | perlmonkey2: or take out the cmos battery and get rid of all your "disable booting from anything but hard drive" and the bios password | 17:21 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Listerthrawn: untill you forget your grub password that you set a year ago..... :) | 17:21 |
| perlmonkey2 | pk: why not, I ran a server off a VIA C-7 | 17:22 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Listerthrawn: dont forget to encrypt your homes also. | 17:22 |
| rickyrickyricky | k | 17:22 |
| maco | Moonlit: none of the protection you're talking about means squat diddly to any security professional | 17:22 |
| maco | Moonlit: all you're talking about is a false sense of security | 17:22 |
| pk | i mean are there some public servers? | 17:22 |
| maco | Moonlit: something which i would argue is BAD | 17:22 |
| pk | so that i can install using them? | 17:22 |
| perlmonkey2 | maco: are you including encrypted /home as not meaning diddly squat? | 17:22 |
| Dr_Willis_ | pk: ive never seen one.. and i dont think it works that way | 17:22 |
| AutumnAi | My Windows 7 partition disappeared from GRUB, and I was just using it this morning. Anyone know why? | 17:23 |
| abe3k | guys, I'm having a problem, under the sys/admin/software sources/ when I choose the "Select Best Server" for the package download the application crashes, anyone else is experiencing this ? | 17:23 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: ok the internet say | 17:23 |
| maco | perlmonkey2: no. im including bios protections | 17:23 |
| Moonlit | indeed, Listerthrawn, and maco - I'm not likely to be running into any hardcore security specialists trying to see inside my machine, I know for a fact that anyone that determined to get my data easily could, but it could stop my friends, family, whoever | 17:23 |
| raffa | salve | 17:23 |
| jrib | abe3k: run it from a terminal | 17:23 |
| pk | then there should be something like that | 17:23 |
| sal_ | rickyrickyricky, go back to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx and follow the instruction for "no alternate internet access" | 17:23 |
| raffa | hello | 17:23 |
| raffa | !lista | 17:23 |
| ubottu | This is not a file sharing channel (or network); be sure to read the channel topic. If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot » | 17:23 |
| maco | Moonlit: im not a hardcore security specialist. im a student. and ive known better for ages | 17:23 |
| sal_ | you should have the fwcutter good now | 17:23 |
| pk | i want to install from interbnet.help | 17:24 |
| abe3k | jrib : uhm ... it ran normally O.o | 17:24 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: sudo b43-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware/`uname -r` <that file you had that ends in .o> | 17:24 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: those are backticks. on qwerty keyboards, usually the key next to 1, the one with ~ | 17:24 |
| Dr_Willis_ | actually with the features of grub2.. i wouldent be suprised if it couldent some day ask for the 'sudo users' (admin users) password to allow alterations to the boot up stuff. But right now i cant even find a gide on how to add a password to grub2 | 17:24 |
| Moonlit | maco - I'm well aware of countless methods of compromising a machine, but it's not me doing the compromising in this case, I think privacy is a fair expectation among non-experts, and I know that wannabe hacker kids would use the recovery console as an easy trick to get access | 17:24 |
| Listerthrawn | Moonlit: et al - True about all these protections meaning nothing to a security professional (I kinda am one) but you build security in layers. I protect the physical security of my machine with locks on my doors and a burglar alarm on my house. I protect my security externally with firewalls etc. I protect user security with passwords. If I lose the grub password that I set 2 years ago i boot from a USB and start fixing... | 17:25 |
| reign2 | anyone else notice that the python function "import" is also a linux app? it makes it impossible to use import in python because itll trigger the screenshot app in linux. kind of funny to see 10 picture files named sys, gnome-ui, etc in my home dir | 17:25 |
| jeffjeffdejeff | anyone else having trouble with evolution mail? inbox is not showing emails downloaded from my webmail account. says it's downloading them though when i click on send/receive. :s | 17:25 |
| ikonia | reign2: import is a python function - call it as a function | 17:25 |
| AutumnAi | Has anyone else had a Windows 7 partition disappear from GRUB? | 17:25 |
| Moonlit | exactly Listerthrawn, the recovery console is the Ubuntu version of a key under the doormat | 17:25 |
| Moonlit | whereas a bootcd could be likened more to a lockpick | 17:25 |
| jrib | abe3k: please feed the gremlins in your computer more regularly | 17:25 |
| Dr_Willis_ | AutumnAi: a rerun of 'sudo update-grub' in theory would rescan/find/re-add it back.. | 17:26 |
| perlmonkey2 | I don't see why someone wouldn't encrypt /home on a laptop or server. If someone steals your machine, they've got everything of yours. They'll have access to your email which means they can reset passwords on every one of your accounts. | 17:26 |
| ikonia | AutumnAi: a recent grub update in ubuntu may put a new config file in place if you did not read the warning and answer the question of what to do properly | 17:26 |
| Listerthrawn | moonlit: I've never used the recovery function, does it just boot straight to a root prompt? | 17:26 |
| abe3k | jrib : well I just ran it again without the terminal and it crashed -.- | 17:26 |
| perlmonkey2 | not encrypting home is just crazy. | 17:26 |
| n00b1 | hey there - i was looking for live support, and the ubuntu community support page directed me here. anyone willing to help a total n00b with sound issues | 17:26 |
| Moonlit | Listerthrawn - boots to a menu which you can choose to get a root shell or root shell w/networking, among other stuff | 17:26 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | Hey, i'm using xserver-xgl with xinerama on three monitors and i'm getting an error while trying to start gnome-settings-daemon -- http://pastebin.com/m12d9202 -- Anyone experienced with this here? | 17:26 |
| * maco has 3 sets of lockpicks | 17:26 | |
| maco | cant find one of the sets though... | 17:26 |
| Listerthrawn | maco: Do you live in the UK? | 17:27 |
| Moonlit | Listerthrawn - then you just passwd root, or passwd user, no existing passwords required | 17:27 |
| maco | Listerthrawn: no | 17:27 |
| Hail_Spacecake | how does a wubi installation set up the disk partitions? | 17:27 |
| apparle | guys I don't know what the problem is I just can't goto recovery... whenever I select recovery mode it shows me lots of options but then hangs there and keyboard doesn't respond | 17:27 |
| Listerthrawn | maco: Good ;-) | 17:27 |
| abe3k | jrib : I used the exact command that ran it from the menu | 17:27 |
| perlmonkey2 | maco: I thought all the cool kids just carried a blank key and a screwdriver to tap it with. | 17:27 |
| aperson | Hail_Spacecake, it installs into a file in windows | 17:27 |
| maco | Listerthrawn: they're illegal where i live too | 17:27 |
| jrib | abe3k: check ~/.xsession-errors | 17:27 |
| maco | perlmonkey2: not a blank. a bump key | 17:27 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Moonlit: thers also arguments the 'other' way to add features to the default grub to allow system/password recovery, and other less secure things. so its all about balance. New Users vs Paranoid Users Vs Power Users.. vs the kids. | 17:27 |
| aperson | Hail_Spacecake, so the filesystem is at the mercy of ntfs | 17:27 |
| maco | perlmonkey2: and yeah, i dont have a set of bump keys yet. will need to get some | 17:27 |
| Listerthrawn | maco: legality aside, I'm just glad you don't live next door lol. | 17:28 |
| maco | Listerthrawn: why? its not like i'd use 'em without permission | 17:28 |
| perlmonkey2 | Listerthrawn: His openness about having them probably means he isn't a crook. It's the 15 year old watching the youtube video on bump keys who lives next door you have to worry about. | 17:28 |
| Moonlit | maco - but my point was, if you'll excuse the analogy, a key under the doormat is not the same as a guy with a lockpick, if you leave the key under the mat (recovery console) then you give someone the tool they need to get into your house, if they bring a lockpick then there's not much you can do about that | 17:28 |
| aperson | maco, I have a bump key that I use sometimes :) | 17:28 |

| rickyrickyricky | okay so, err sudo b43-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware/`uname -r` wl_apsta-3.130.20.0.o ? | 17:29 |
| abe3k | jrib : All I see are warnings of a failure to sending buffer | 17:29 |
| finemann | hello, i'm running ubuntu 9.4 on a 160GB hard drive. When i ran the palimpsest disk utility i got a warninng: Count of reallocated sectors = 41...is this a serious problem?? | 17:29 |
| Dr_Willis_ | They have 'locks' You can put on PC's also. :) so they wont boot without the key. | 17:29 |
| jrib | abe3k: related to the app in question? | 17:29 |
| Moonlit | Dr_Willis_ - well, a lot of people believe and preach that Linux is "secure", that particular "feature" isn't a good example of "secure" | 17:29 |
| maco | Listerthrawn: that would be immoral | 17:29 |
| === ahmed is now known as Guest82224 | ||
| Hail_Spacecake | aperson, so when you boot into ubuntu and df -h or whatever you're just going to see your ntfs filesystem mounted as root and a bunch of windows files scattered around? | 17:29 |
| bhuvi | finemann, no it might be a false positive | 17:29 |
| Listerthrawn | maco: Of course. I apologise | 17:29 |
| MsTegan | How do I switch between workspaces using the right scroll on my fingerpad? | 17:29 |
| abe3k | jrib : no idea tbh , let me recheck the pid | 17:30 |
| reign2 | ikonia: I should only have to use "import X" (X being a module) according to the python documentation; how would I go about doing what you suggested? | 17:30 |
| ciphergoth | Running x64 Karmic, and Wake-On-LAN isn't working for me; nothing I do wakes the machine up. Has anyone got this working? | 17:30 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Moonlit: its all about layers. and balance. check the forums from about a year ago theres proberly a 400+ page forum thread or 200 on the topic | 17:30 |
| aperson | Hail_Spacecake, no, it will show whatever filesystem ubuntu used | 17:30 |
| finemann | bhuvi: i didn't get you | 17:30 |
| rickyrickyricky | maco: sudo b43-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware/`uname -r` wl_apsta-3.130.20.0.o ? | 17:30 |
| maco | Moonlit: ah you miss the definition of secure then. secure means only that it conforms to your policy | 17:30 |
| aperson | Hail_Spacecake, it's a filesystem inside of a filesystem | 17:30 |
| ZombieFeynman | Hi! Does anyone know a easy way to install gcc 4.4.2 in ubuntu 9.10? | 17:30 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: yes, assuming you are in the same directory as wl_apsta-3.130.20.0.o | 17:30 |
| ikonia | reign2: calling import in a python script shouldn't call a unix file system command by dewfault | 17:30 |
| n00b1 | here's my situation. i have a toshiba running vista, and vista sucks (dur) and barely runs on this thing. someone told me about wubi & i love it. i started with the jaunty jackalope, no issues, and upgraded to karmic koala once it was available. my sound is fine on vista and worked fine on jaunty, but now with karmic it does not work. i went through the ubuntu sound troubleshooting and may have learned a little bit about | 17:30 |
| zinox | do anyone know wtf happen with nvidia-xconfig?? parameters as --render-accel --mode ... doesn't works anymore.. it's says option --render-accel not recognized | 17:30 |
| rickyrickyricky | it's on desktop | 17:31 |
| Hail_Spacecake | how does that get mounted by the boot process? | 17:31 |
| maco | Moonlit: so if your policy disallows remote access but says nothing about physical accesss... | 17:31 |
| Moonlit | maco - I don't think my particular definition of secure is really relevant, I'm 1 single person out of many thousands who use Ubuntu alone, not to mention the rest of the Linux world | 17:31 |
| Listerthrawn | moonlit: I suppose the answer is to build it into your 'toolkit' that if you are building a machine that people will have physical access to then you disable this option in the grub menu and password protect grub along with BIOS password etc and full disk encryption. | 17:31 |
| ciphergoth | There seems to be a BIOS setting corresponding to Wake-On-LAN. If it's off, nothing wakes the machine. If it's on, immediately after suspending, the power light and fans come on, and the machine is unwakeable by any means including pressing the power. | 17:31 |
| therekku | Anyone here Familiar with conky? That could help me solve quite simple problems? | 17:31 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: then sudo b43-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware/`uname -r` ~/Desktop/wl_apsta-3.130.20.0.o | 17:31 |
| reign2 | ikonia: hmm. I wonder why it does for me then. any ideas? | 17:31 |
| ciphergoth | This is after doing sudo ethtool -i eth0 wol pumbag | 17:31 |
| rickyrickyricky | right | 17:31 |
| livingdaylight | HILFE ! | 17:31 |
| rickyrickyricky | okay thanks | 17:31 |
| rickyrickyricky | will try | 17:31 |
| Dr_Willis_ | therekku: ask and see. :) if nothing else i can point ya to the faq hat has the answer. | 17:31 |
| Hail_Spacecake | I guess it would have to mount the ntfs partition first to be able to read the ubuntu file and then do a loop mount? | 17:31 |
| Intelli | I need wireless help. | 17:31 |
| ciphergoth | livingdaylight: you want ubuntu-de and you shouldn't ask to ask, just ask - see the toppic | 17:31 |
| maco | Moonlit: im going by the book "Computer Security: Art and Science" by Matt Bishop | 17:32 |
| bhuvi | finemann, its a bug with the program and there is bug reported in launchpad https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libatasmart/+bug/438136 for more details | 17:32 |
| Intelli | I can't make my Linksys usb wireless adapter work at all. | 17:32 |
| therekku | Im trying to Find the Conky File, as Usr/share/doc/conky/examples/conky(cant remember ending), however i only get up to Usr/share/doc/conky, the rest isnt there, (i've reinstalled conky mutiple times etc.) still nothing, any tips? | 17:32 |
| Moonlit | Listerthrawn - I can see where you're coming from, and you have a point, OSs aren't "secure" by nature and you have to do some work to make them so, but given the userbase of Ubuntu (easy to use Linux and all) I think it'd probably make more sense if more efforts were made to give them a helping hand to keep it from being "less secure" | 17:32 |
| maco | Moonlit: i only said i'm not a "hardcore security professional". i have no professional certifications yet. | 17:32 |
| livingdaylight | I'm in very deep GaGa.... My Desktop has frozen and when i reboot it immediately makes tutututututut sound and i can only do memtest... I have lost Ubuntu | 17:32 |
| Varan | My laptop is indicating an charge rate of 720 W which is ofcourse not right. Does anyone know what could be the problem. The discharge rate is oke | 17:33 |
| trism | reign2: how are you running import? from the python console? from a python script? there is no reason interpretted python code should call any commands from the filesystem unless you specifically tell it to with the subprocess module or something similar | 17:33 |
| n00b1 | anyone? anyone? bueller? | 17:33 |
| === basti2 is now known as basti | ||
| ciphergoth | So I'm guessing no-one else has got wake-on-LAN working? | 17:34 |
| Moonlit | maco - well, you'll know the difference between handing access on a plate and requiring some work, right? a script kiddy might well know about the recovery console, that's low hanging fruit, if you require some effort then some percentage of those script kiddies might be stuck | 17:34 |
| maco | Moonlit: if your policy disallows physical root access, you could simply remove the recovery entries from the grub menu, but be aware that there are many many ways around it | 17:34 |
| reign2 | trism: its a script. could I pastebin it? | 17:34 |
| maco | Moonlit: and so itd be an incomplete implementation | 17:34 |

| aperson | Hail_Spacecake, I believe so | 17:34 |
| ikonia | reign2: this isn't really an ubuntu issue | 17:34 |
| livingdaylight | please help me | 17:34 |
| therekku | Dr_Willis_: Did you see my question? :) | 17:34 |
| Dr_Willis_ | therekku: the conky command can generate a 'default' config, or the conky homapage has them you can download. | 17:34 |
| zinox | do anyone know wtf happen with nvidia-xconfig?? parameters as --render-accel --mode ... doesn't works anymore.. it's says option --render-accel not recognized | 17:34 |
| maco | Moonlit: as i said, i dont believe a false sense of security is a good thing | 17:34 |
| reign2 | ikonia: true. Ill post it there | 17:34 |
| finemann | bhuvi: i'm running 2.28.1 of the utitlity...that bug was for the older one | 17:34 |
| Dr_Willis_ | therekku: or checkthe contents of the conky packatge to see what it installed where.. | 17:34 |
| ciphergoth | livingdaylight: what do you mean "I can only do memtest"? | 17:34 |
| Leapo | maco: Incomplete security is arguably better than none | 17:35 |
| aperson | n00b1, didn't see your question | 17:35 |
| therekku | Dr_Willis_: When i type Conky in terminal, i only get "Bus Error" | 17:35 |
| Dr_Willis_ | therekku: or use 'locate conky' to see what it insalled where also | 17:35 |
| livingdaylight | ciphergoth : it won't let me choose rescue mode | 17:35 |
| Listerthrawn | moonlit: I'd love to continue this debate, I like talking about things like this but unfortunately the wife is calling. Christmas tree time *groan* | 17:35 |
| xJust | hi guys, so .. how do i "Defragment" or "Delete my internet History" in ubuntu 9.10 .. this needs to be done like windows .. right ^^ ? | 17:35 |
| Dr_Willis_ | therekku: you dont see conky on the desktop? | 17:35 |
| ciphergoth | is that option visible>? | 17:35 |
| livingdaylight | the cursor just jumps from one to another | 17:35 |
| Moonlit | maco - but Joe Shmoe doesn't do "security" | 17:35 |
| therekku | Dr_Willis_: No i do not see it. | 17:35 |
| Moonlit | Listerthrawn - alrighty, have fun ;) | 17:35 |
| livingdaylight | ciphergoth: and i can't choose rescue mode iwth previous kernel | 17:35 |
| n00b1 | aperson - sorry - basically, i'm running ubuntu with wubi, started with jaunty, no sound issues. upgraded to karmic, sound doesn't work but still works when running vista. went through the documentation page and learned some things, but am too much of a n00b to actually know how to FIX the issues. | 17:35 |
| jrib | xJust: you don't defragment, you delete your internet history on firefox the same way you do on windows (check firefox menus) | 17:36 |
| Intelli | I updated to 8.10 and it broke my wireless connection. | 17:36 |
| ciphergoth | livingdaylight: so the option you want is visible, but you can't highlight it? | 17:36 |
| === livingdaylight is now known as n00b2 | ||
| Besogon | xJust, Do you use Firefox? | 17:36 |

| gorski | how to stop inadyn service without rebooting? | 17:36 |
| n00b2 | ciphergoth: i am feeling noobish | 17:36 |
| ciphergoth | you mean even if you don't touch the keyboard? it mooves? | 17:36 |
| Listerthrawn | moonlit: Oh by the way, the best way I've seen for disabling boot from USB wasn't using the BIOS. It involved pouring hot glue into all the USB ports. Draconian but effective. | 17:36 |
| xJust | jrib, what about defragmentation ,, how dose it work in linux ? ^^ | 17:36 |
| n00b2 | ciphergoth: YES | 17:36 |
| rickyrickyricky | maco: right, i just did that, it worked, recognised the file, and extracted through the ubuntu cmd thing, so now what ? :) do i just restart and check if its working ? | 17:36 |
| xJust | besogon, thanks man .. i got it | 17:36 |
| === n00b2 is now known as livingdaylight | ||
| ciphergoth | livingdaylight: please don't do that again | 17:37 |
| Moonlit | Listerthrawn - aye, that I've heard about, but I like using my USB ports, and I'm not quite that paranoid :P | 17:37 |
| ciphergoth | livingdaylight: have you tried a different keyboard | 17:37 |
| jrib | xJust: the filesystem doesn't defragment nearly as much for it to be required | 17:37 |
| livingdaylight | ciphergoth: no | 17:37 |
| Dr_Willis_ | therekku: odd.. it works here.. rather ugly default settings also. | 17:37 |
| Listerthrawn | moonlit: This was at a bank. And they are paranoid and with good reason. lol | 17:37 |
| === jondecker76 is now known as jonedecker76eee | ||
| livingdaylight | ciphergoth : what makes you think it is the keyboard? | 17:37 |

| jrib | !defrag | xJust | 17:37 |
| ubottu | xJust: The default Ubuntu filesystem (ext3) is engineered to avoid fragmentation issues in most cases, see http://linkpot.net/behead/ for a simple example on how it achieves this. | 17:37 |

| n00b1 | all right peeps, i guess i shall ask my question on the forums! adieu. | 17:38 |
| Listerthrawn | Leapo: It was more to stop information leakage than usb boot. But they had NAC to prevent what you suggested | 17:38 |
| therekku | Dr_Willis_: Should i write that in terminal yes? | 17:38 |
| Besogon | xJust, ext file system, I heard, don't need defragmentation. (But there is tool for check drive) | 17:38 |
| maco | rickyrickyricky: did it say it extracted everything? | 17:38 |
| rickyrickyricky | yup | 17:38 |
| livingdaylight | ciphergoth : noise is a rapid tuttuttuttutututt sound (not beep - tut) | 17:38 |

| bhuvi | finemann, then try other utilities like smartctl and see whether they report the same problem otherwise it could be a bug with the program | 17:39 |

| reinstall | I am trying to do a fresh reinstall of Ubuntu 9.10 using an .iso CD downloaded from Ubuntu's homepage. I restarted my computer with the CD in and the screen went black, so I hardware restarted and it loaded normally asking me to login instead of recognizing the CD. Is this normal? And how do I get the CD to go into boot install mode so I can reformat the old partition and install the new one? | 17:39 |
| livingdaylight | ciphergoth: After i swith on it makes the sound like some old arcade game... tuctuctuc tuc... | 17:39 |
| Leapo | Listerthrawn: That would just prevent the compromised PC from joining the network while running the OS you've started over ethernet. Doesn't stop someone from pwning the resident OS ont he hard disk and booting back into it. | 17:39 |
| sal_ | rickyrickyricky, sudo b43-fwcutter --unsupported -w /lib/firmware broadcom-wl-4.80.53.0/kmod/wl_apsta_mimo.o | 17:39 |

| sal_ | rickyrickyricky, okay. there are a couple things you can check in the filebrowser to confirm things where they should be .. | 17:40 |
| therekku | Noup, none. let me double check and do it again | 17:40 |
| ciphergoth | livingdaylight: does the cursor still move by itself with the new keyboard?.# | 17:40 |
| Dr_Willis_ | should just show the config file to the terminal | 17:40 |

| rbehr | I am new to Linux. I installed Ubuntu 9.1 after one week as I the Network Manager icon disappeared. I am still able to connect via Ethernet but wireless connections are not working. I have also removed and re-installed the app three times and still not icon. can you please help? | 18:12 |
| mark__ | if it says processor 0 - intel p4 2.60ghz then porocessor 1 - p4 2.60ghz does that make this machine duel processor>? | 18:12 |
| maco | rbehr: is your whole notification area missing? | 18:13 |
| Listerthrawn | mark__ a P4 is most likely hyperthreaded, not dual core. | 18:13 |
| rbehr | yes | 18:13 |
| maco | rbehr: right click the panel, add to panel, choose "notification area" | 18:13 |
| mark__ | Thanks Listerthrawn | 18:13 |
| Listerthrawn | mark__ unless it's a 2 socket motherboard of course. You could have 2 physical processors. | 18:14 |
| kingster | is there anything out there for Karmic that provides functionality similar to XP's System Restore? | 18:15 |
| S1L3NT | bhuvi: I'm having some issues. The installer prompts me for a language, then for the partitions and stuff. I dont see an advanced button | 18:15 |

| DaZ | kingster: what's the point? :f | 18:16 |
| Listerthrawn | mark__, it will be hyperthreaded unless you can see 2 CPU sockets on the motherboard. | 18:17 |

| kingster | Daz: I have my system almost the way I want it, but before I go on (to do other more dangerous things) I want to take a snapshot of the way it is | 18:18 |
| DaZ | kingster: you can backup whole / partition using dd, or just tar /etc and dotfiles in your home directory. | 18:19 |

| Listerthrawn | TopKatz, I'm using software raid, my knowledge may transfer. How can I help | 18:20 |
| Teleken | TopKatz: software raid seems to be the better bet these days. | 18:20 |
| Jinan | G4L - Ghost for Linux also work great for snapshot and restore Kingster | 18:21 |
| epinky | TopKatz: better ask on #ubuntu-server channel | 18:21 |
| TopKatz | Im curious what the correct procediur is for upgrading linux hedders while you have a hardware raid installed. Every time I upgrade, my raid blows up and I have to rebuild it | 18:21 |
| TopKatz | epinky - thats a good idea | 18:21 |
| TopKatz | right now, I install update, restart, adn pray | 18:21 |
| Jinan | http://sourceforge.net/projects/g4l/ | 18:21 |
| TopKatz | then reinstall my raid drivers | 18:21 |
| TopKatz | today I ahd to rebuild the raid | 18:22 |
| === egertonm20 is now known as citypop | ||
| TopKatz | it like split it into two raids, it was a little touch and go | 18:22 |
| kingster | Daz: I don't think that will do what I want, which is roll-back to what I have installed right now | 18:22 |
| daf_ | I have a dual monitor (different sizes) on Karmic with Nvidia card and after I login just before the desktop comes up the splash screen is chopped up into pieces. You can see the split on one monitor with panel bar going 3/4 of the way across the screen. Anyone know where the settings for that are? | 18:22 |
| Satzo | daf_, system > prefs > display | 18:22 |
| kingster | Jinan: that just gets me bare-metal, right? not a roll-back functionality | 18:22 |
| Dr_Willis_ | daf_: the xplash stuff is a little dumb. You could just remove xsplash | 18:23 |
| ppotter | Hi, anybody got any experience with booting HP Envizex X terms? | 18:23 |
| daf_ | Satzo - I can't use that with Nvidia driver | 18:23 |
| daf_ | Dr_Willis do I just uninstall xplash (not sure if it is seperate from gnome or what) | 18:23 |
| Dr_Willis_ | !info xsplash | 18:24 |
| ubottu | xsplash (source: xsplash): X based bootsplash. In component main, is optional. Version 0.8.5-0ubuntu1 (karmic), package size 16 kB, installed size 96 kB | 18:24 |

| xacks | wenas | 18:24 |
| Jinan | Kingster: Actually it creates a copy of the drive or partition and you can restore it later, but correct no roll back function | 18:24 |
| Dr_Willis_ | daf_: i also always enable twinview in the nvidia-settings tool. That makes it work slightly better | 18:24 |

| lzrdking | bazhang: is karmic no longer supported in here? | 18:29 |
| coldboot | Sort of like how `apt-get build-dep` does it? | 18:29 |
| Satzo | lzrdking, seriously.. soap and water works as LONG AS a minute amount of soap and make sure the cloth is well-wrung out of excess water | 18:29 |
| Dr_Willis_ | coldboot: try just double clicking on it.. I think the gdebi (?) tool does that | 18:29 |
| bazhang | lzrdking, cleaning your screen has nothing to do with karmic. Please desist | 18:29 |
| coldboot | Dr_Willis_: Thanks! | 18:29 |
| grawity | coldboot: I think it's possible with dpkg -i foo.deb, and then apt-get install -f. Don't remember it though... | 18:29 |
| Satzo | lzrdking, clean the surface lying down to minimize the possibility of water dripping down into screen edge | 18:29 |

| Dr_Willis_ | lzrdking: you allready used up your question for the day.. sorry.. :P | 18:30 |
| grawity | coldboot: And if you're talking about my nick -- it's just a random one that I started using when my usual one was already taken... and so I'm using this for like 5 years already. | 18:31 |
| lzrdking | but i found that out myself, the kernel doesn;t properly remove the device, so whenever the device reconnects, ubuntu sees it as a new device and there is a maximum of 20 devices | 18:31 |
| lzrdking | or so i read somewhere | 18:31 |

| c3l | i have a cd image that consists of a .bin and a .cue file. how do I mount this? | 18:34 |
| MrKeuner | hello, where can I see the list of updated packages due to security updates? | 18:35 |
| newuser | hi all, after an update (not upgrade) for ubuntu 9.04 i lost my 1440x900 resolution and it is not on the list. currently using nvidia driver but the rez I want is not on there either.....any susggestions | 18:35 |
| grawity | c3l: I think the easiest way is to convert it to an .iso (I used bchunk for that) | 18:35 |
| vagvaf_ | c3l, i think you should mount 1 of them (i don't remember which) and it should be ok | 18:35 |
| vagvaf_ | oh, i guess not :P | 18:35 |
| xcerca | anybody know why a kubuntu 9.10 amd64 live cd wont boot or install , but a 9.04 ubuntu amd64 disk will . it seems like it has somthing to do with the disk drive , or the drivers for the ati radeon graphics card | 18:35 |
| lzrdking | i think you mount the .cue file (the smaller one) | 18:36 |
| grawity | vagvaf_: It would be .cue, as it contains all track information. | 18:36 |
| c3l | vagvaf_, ive tried that, but it tells me that none of them is a block device | 18:36 |
| c3l | grawity, sudo mount file.bin /mnt/x does not work | 18:36 |
| epinky | c31: use Furius iso mount | 18:36 |

| synapsys | wiki | 18:37 |
| BluesKaj | jmichelsen, try surf canyon | 18:38 |
| grawity | c3l: When mounting files, you need the 'loop' option -- mount -o loop | 18:38 |
| Dr_Willis_ | c3l: or the fuseiso tool. or the fuseiso9660 tool. | 18:38 |
| c3l | grawity, it tells me to specify the file system | 18:38 |
| jmichelsen | BluesKaj: well, thanks for the tip I'll try that, but still wouldn't mind input from the channel on KB software :) | 18:39 |
| Dr_Willis_ | grawity: yes.. do specify the fileysstem. :) iso9660 | 18:39 |
| Dr_Willis_ | c3l: -t iso9660 | 18:39 |
| c3l | Dr_Willis_, with the -o loop also? | 18:39 |
| Dr_Willis_ | c3l: yes.. You are not limited to one option :) | 18:40 |
| Dr_Willis_ | !iso | 18:40 |

| TopKatz | does anyone know if after a header update, before a reboot, is the new kernel in the /lib/modules/'uname -r'/build location? | 18:41 |

| Dr_Willis_ | xckpd7: file not found | 18:55 |
| lzrdking | dialup? is dialup still supported anymore? | 18:55 |
| lzrdking | by us, by linux, by ISPs? | 18:55 |
| Satzo | lzrdking, hell yeah | 18:55 |
| xckpd7 | Dr_Willis_: oh my god...... | 18:55 |
| joeda | hello everybody | 18:55 |
| dreamy | Dr_Willis_: but if i want to create a web page ... one way or the other, ill have to be dealing with HTML Tags right ? | 18:56 |
| * Quasar1048 says hi to joeda | 18:56 | |
| alejandro_ | hola...alguien d mexico | 18:56 |
| Mewses | does the installation of 9.10 require internet? :p | 18:56 |
| joeda | i have problems formatting an USB-stick | 18:56 |
| c3l | dreamnid, no, u can use dreamweaver or other similar programs | 18:56 |
| grawity | dreamy: Yep. | 18:56 |
| Satzo | Mewses, no | 18:56 |
| lzrdking | dreamy, there are editors you can use, i bet openoffice has a "save as HTML" option, but yes, you should know HTML at least a little., its easy | 18:56 |
| c3l | joeda, use fdisk and mkfs | 18:56 |
| alejandro_ | holaaaa... | 18:56 |
| dreamy | c3l: im using this linux lap top if have here aside me, with "ubuntu" | 18:56 |
| joeda | the partition table is broken so i used gpart -W $stick $stick | 18:56 |
| Dr_Willis_ | c3l: you may need to link the proper ~/.wine/whatever/driveletter to point to the location you mounted it to. or perhaps mount it somewhere uder ~/.wine/whatever/c_drive/theisofile | 18:57 |
| lzrdking | it's like how they make you memorize your multiplication tables before they let you use a calculator in math class | 18:57 |
| joeda | gpart guessed a table and i told it to write it | 18:57 |
| epinky | K|nG: sudo pppconfig , -> Delete connection | 18:57 |
| joeda | no error message | 18:57 |
| Dr_Willis_ | dreamy: depends. You could use that tiddlywiki and have a page up and going in 5 min. | 18:57 |
| Mewses | satzo: well the installation just stops at a silver-grey ubuntu icon and then nothing else happens =p | 18:57 |
| K|nG | Oks | 18:57 |
| Satzo | Mewses, where abouts? | 18:57 |
| K|nG | THanks epinky | 18:57 |
| lzrdking | yes, a calculator is faster and easier, but you really ought to know what it's doing | 18:57 |
| Quasar1048 | I just came here mainly to get a nice screenshot of my thanks, thanks for being active, I was counting on it. :) Peace, people! | 18:57 |
| c3l | Dr_Willis_, ooh thanks for the info ill try int | 18:57 |
| grawity | dreamy: So-called "WYSIWYG" webpage authoring software lets you edit HTML graphically - you see everything how it is supposed to look... but once in a while, it becomes WYSIWTF and you're going to need to fix HTML manually. | 18:57 |
| bazhang | lzrdking, please take chat elsewhere | 18:57 |
| lzrdking | to have a clue if its got a chance of being correct | 18:58 |
| K|nG | And when i do anything wrong to the Terminal how i can fix it reset again how it was from the Start off Ubuntu | 18:58 |
| Satzo | Mewses, ive installed 9.10 without network.. hang on, ill setup a vm(without network) to test.... | 18:58 |
| joeda | then i opened gparted, which wanted to write a new partition table because it didnt find one, but fails | 18:58 |
| lzrdking | bazhang: its an analogy | 18:58 |
| Dr_Willis_ | c3l: copy protected games can be very problematic in wine. Good Luck | 18:58 |
| bennywine | Hello everyone! Does anyone know GRUB really well? I have a weird problem | 18:58 |
| Mewses | Satzo: no need, it works i think. thanks anyway for your dedication! +karma | 18:58 |
| Satzo | Mewses, sorry i can only simulate this in 9.04. | 18:58 |
| Satzo | ;) | 18:58 |
| dreamy | grawity: ok i dig it .. | 18:58 |
| epinky | K|nG: just be careful with sudo :) | 18:58 |
| === yofel_ is now known as yofel | ||
| joeda | is that a gparted problem? | 18:59 |
| joeda | or is the stick broken? | 18:59 |
| dreamy | ok Dr_Willis_ ty | 18:59 |
| tvanover | every time I log in and try and open empathy it asks for the keyring password. Is there a way to stop this? | 18:59 |
| lzrdking | well, that was fun, i was floating in cyberspace momentarily | 19:00 |
| c3l | Dr_Willis_, I just need the "cd to be inserted" | 19:00 |
| joeda | okay i see the partition table is broken, at least thats what dmesg reports | 19:00 |
| bazhang | lzrdking, please remain on topic, or you will be removed; chat in #ubuntu-offtopic | 19:00 |
| Dr_Willis_ | c3l: Huh? when. | 19:00 |
| Surya | salve | 19:00 |
| joeda | how can i fix it? | 19:00 |
| lzrdking | sure sure | 19:00 |
| masdi | hello, how to install my laptop webcam? | 19:00 |
| Mewses | now! lets hope that ubuntu 9.1 supports my netcard, rofl | 19:00 |
| Mewses | 9.10* | 19:00 |
| ppotter | Anybody know why when using tftpd under 9.10 the client can not see files? | 19:01 |
| Dr_Willis_ | !info tftpd | 19:01 |
| ubottu | tftpd (source: netkit-tftp): Trivial file transfer protocol server. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.17-17ubuntu1 (karmic), package size 16 kB, installed size 80 kB | 19:01 |
| shubbar | folder ~/.thumbnails stores too many thumbnails even for files that have been deleted | 19:01 |
| Dr_Willis_ | I thought tftpd was for net-booting stuff.. or am i confused... | 19:01 |
| masdi | hello, how to install my laptop webcam? i'm on karmic using Twinmate M95 laptop | 19:01 |
| Dr_Willis_ | masdi: what have you done to test it out? | 19:02 |
| ppotter | Yes, I'm trying to boot an old HP Envizex X terminal | 19:02 |
| grawity | Dr_Willis_: tftp is used often for netboot, but it's just a generic file transfer protocol - a very simple one. | 19:02 |
| grawity | . | 19:02 |
| alfo982 | could anybody PM me? I need support for the installation of a wlan usb adapter... pleeease | 19:02 |
| treats | 28 packages can be updated. | 19:02 |

| jjon_ | anyone ever used nginx. It is not reloading php.ini on restart for some reason. Is this to do with fast-cgi | 19:02 |
| epinky | masdi: install cheese | 19:02 |
| === Noose is now known as Grisatre | ||
| grawity | jjon_: Might be... nginx itself never loads php.ini -- only PHP does. | 19:03 |
| masdi | Dr_willis : already install VLC but don't know make webcam work | 19:03 |
| grawity | jjon_: So you need to restart fastcgi, not nginx. | 19:03 |
| Dr_Willis_ | masdi: install a webcam app like cheese | 19:03 |
| ppotter | The x term seems to be connected to my server but can not find files. | 19:03 |
| RiXtEr | hey all, I am having an issue with phpldapadmin running, I was wondering if there is an easy way to update (or downgrade) from php 5.2.10 to either 5.3.1 or 5.2.9 | 19:03 |
| masdi | Dr_willis : ok, in process | 19:04 |
| ngirard | Hello folks. I'm looking for a program which is already installed on my ubuntu 9.10 but which doesn't appear in the menus. It allows to browse disks, partitions, and among other things, to change partition labels. Which program could it be ? | 19:04 |
| RiXtEr | ngirard: parted or gparted perhaps | 19:04 |
| Dr_Willis_ | ngirard: gparted cn do that | 19:04 |
| hackel | How can I hide my username and just show an icon in karmic's indicator-applet-session like I did in jaunty? | 19:05 |
| alfo982 | could anybody support me with my wlan usb adapter?? | 19:05 |
| ppotter | With this non-booting X terminal it's all set up to point to where the boot files are, but still can't see them. | 19:06 |
| ngirard | Hi RiXtEr and Dr_Willis_ . Thanks for your answer but i'm sure i have another program than (x)parted. It appeared once when I encountered problems with an external hard disk | 19:06 |
| ppotter | chowned to nobody etc | 19:06 |
| masdi | Dr_willis : ok , it worked. can you tell me how to make it work with vlc? /dev? | 19:06 |
| Satzo | alfo982, i can try | 19:06 |
| === Cynix01 is now known as cynix01|afk | ||
| Dr_Willis_ | ngirard: only gui tool ive ever seen that can change filesystem labels is gparted. | 19:07 |
| JoDo | I guess this would be the wrong chan to ask about an AIO XP installation :P | 19:07 |
| Dr_Willis_ | masdi: nope. checkthe vlc docs. it proberly needs the right options | 19:07 |
| Dr_Willis_ | masdi: and i dont have a webcam to check.. Why doyou even Want it to work with vlc? | 19:07 |
| ngirard | Dr_Willis_: This is a mistery, really. If I find this program again i'll tell you. Meantime i'll use gparted. Cheers ! | 19:07 |
| Satzo | alfo982, just type in here.. use my nic in front of text. | 19:08 |

| alfo982 | satzo, I've just installed ubuntu 9.10, but now I would install my pen... first of all I don't know if I need drivers or not | 19:09 |
| lzrdking | can anyone help me with using SANE to scan over my local network? It works fine locally, but when i try to connect on my laptop over my network, i see the connection come in to the box with the scanner, but XSANE on my laptop says "No devices available" | 19:09 |
| masdi | Dr_willis : ok, thanks anyway :) | 19:10 |
| Satzo | alfo982, does ifconfig see your device? | 19:10 |
| alfo982 | satzo, now I try... | 19:10 |
| Dr_Willis_ | i dident even know sane COULD scan over the network. Ijust 'ssh -X' to the box with the scanner and run sane. scan to a shared location. :) | 19:10 |
| meborc | wow, it is really quiet here today | 19:11 |
| lzrdking | Dr_Willis_: the goal is to eventually put a sane client on my wife's mac so she can scan right form her own computer | 19:11 |
| Dr_Willis_ | lzrdking: you sure sane even has the feature? Ive never really looked into it | 19:11 |

| geev | help i get this errors when i run update manager http://paste.ubuntu.com/339420/ how do i fix it? | 19:12 |
| meborc | Satzo: seems that way :D | 19:12 |
| minche | i have a problem with my touret. somehow it seems, only linux can use it =/ | 19:12 |
| minche | please, is there any solution to this | 19:12 |
| alfo982 | satzo, what I have to see precisely? I typed ifconfig... now? | 19:12 |
| minche | other than uninstalling linux | 19:12 |
| === nick_ is now known as Guest73017 | ||
| lzrdking | Dr_Willis_: it indeed does, i found instructions to set it up and it's almost working. I see the connection come it to the box with the scanner | 19:12 |
| micha__ | hi there... how do i get apache started at boot up?? | 19:13 |
| mewseslol | dammit, I cant access to internet.. I have no freaking idea why. "Wired network" Disconnected you are now offline | 19:13 |
| Guest73017 | when i try to log in i get a message that says could not update ICEauthority what do i need to do to fix it | 19:13 |
| Satzo | alfo982, you are looking to see if wlan0 or any wlan is present | 19:13 |
| Satzo | alfo982, type ifconfig -a |grep wlan | 19:13 |
| minche | *router | 19:13 |
| geev | please help i get this errors when i run update manager http://paste.ubuntu.com/339420/ how do i fix it? | 19:13 |
| RiXtEr | geeve, are you out of hard drive space? | 19:13 |
| RiXtEr | geeve, df -h from an xterm | 19:13 |
| Dr_Willis_ | micha__: normally if you install a service like that - it sets itself to auto start at boot | 19:14 |
| Pseudo | How do I make ubuntu use eth2? | 19:14 |
| === enzotib_ is now known as enzotib | ||
| oCean_ | geev: your /boot partition might be out of space | 19:15 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Pseudo: use it for what? | 19:15 |
| Guest73017 | ICEauthority cant update how do i fix that | 19:15 |
| geev | oCean_: how do i clear it | 19:15 |
| RiXtEr | geev: easy there big fella | 19:15 |
| RiXtEr | geev: don't just start "clearing" things | 19:15 |
| geev | RiXtEr: what do u mean | 19:16 |
| oCean_ | geev: if it is the case, then you have to remove (carefully) files/directories that are no longer needed | 19:16 |
| RiXtEr | geev: also did you ever run df -h to see | 19:16 |
| Dr_Willis_ | geev: do you even have a /boot/ partition? | 19:16 |
| alfo982 | satzo, the response is: wlan4 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1f:1f:74:21:d0 | 19:16 |
| minche | my router only works with linux. pelase, how can i fix this, 'cos my roommate has vista, and she can't connect to internet, and i don't want to unisntsall linux -.-' | 19:16 |
| Pseudo | Dr_Willis_: I'm trying to use it for internet access. I assume that it was using eth0, but now that I put the hard drive into another computer, it doesn't show eth2 through ifconfig unless I use the parameter -a. | 19:16 |
| Dr_Willis_ | minche: your statement seems.. weird.. How can linux on a pc be affecting a router? | 19:16 |
| oCean_ | geev: since the /boot partition contains your (previous and running) kernel, you should be very careful about what to remove | 19:16 |
| RiXtEr | minche: that is incorrect information. | 19:17 |
| minche | i don't know | 19:17 |
| minche | but it seems like it is | 19:17 |
| minche | no other computer can connect to it | 19:17 |
| minche | which is really weird | 19:17 |
| RiXtEr | minche: check the vista firewall | 19:17 |
| Borg | can anyone explain to me how you hide processes from other users on the server edition? | 19:17 |
| Dr_Willis_ | minche: so you Unplug the linux box from the router and suddendly she can connect to it? | 19:17 |
| Satzo | ok alfo982 thats a good sign. now type sudo ifconfig wlan4 up you'll be prompted for password | 19:17 |
| lzrdking | Dr_Willis_: you never called your ISP when you can't get connected, they seem to think rebooting your pc can help | 19:17 |
| minche | no, she can't connect | 19:17 |
| Dr_Willis_ | minche: be sure both pcs are not trying to use the same ip. | 19:17 |
| minche | yeha, but it's not only her pc =/ | 19:18 |
| Dr_Willis_ | lzrdking: they have tv commercials here telling people to turn EVERYTHING off for 10 min.. then power the modem.router/whatever back up. | 19:18 |
| Dr_Willis_ | minche: wireless network or wired? | 19:18 |
| minche | wired | 19:18 |
| lzrdking | 10 minutes? when needed, i pull the plug on my cable modem for 3 seconds! | 19:19 |
| Dr_Willis_ | minche: i would be very suprised if linux is doing anything to the network. Unless you got a dhcp server going on the linux box. | 19:19 |
| alfo982 | satzo, nothing is happened: typed the psw.. then nothing | 19:19 |
| Satzo | alfo982, thats expected.. | 19:19 |
| geev | RiXtEr: df -h http://paste.ubuntu.com/339427/ | 19:19 |
| ganymede | hi, is there a way to simulate a physical disconnection and reconnection of a USB device on a computer that i don't have physical access to? i only have ssh access but i think a certain USB device is acting up so i'd like to disconnect and reconnect it | 19:19 |
| Dr_Willis_ | minche: how about testing a live linux cd on her machine? see if it connects then. | 19:19 |
| Satzo | alfo982, now check your network manager and see if the wireless device is "seen" | 19:19 |
| minche | tried it | 19:19 |
| lzrdking | minche: dod you say your roommate can get online when your computer is off? | 19:19 |
| minche | no luck =/ | 19:19 |
| minche | nope | 19:19 |
| lzrdking | did* | 19:20 |
| masdi | mince : in vista machine, do put dns number | 19:20 |
| lzrdking | so maybe her vista computer is borked | 19:20 |
| geev | oCean_: assist me wht to remove pls | 19:20 |
| Satzo | minche, this a router? one of those $40 things from a common store? | 19:20 |
| Borg | anyone? | 19:20 |
| minche | it's not only her compuetr | 19:20 |
| oCean_ | geev: ok, it's not /boot it's the root (/) filesystem that is full. You have to cleanup (the /boot directory is on the root filesystem (/) ) | 19:20 |
| minche | sattzo: yup | 19:20 |
| RiXtEr | geev: / is full | 19:20 |
| lzrdking | is it her ipod, too? | 19:20 |
| Dr_Willis_ | minche: that dosent prove anything.. really | 19:20 |
| Satzo | minche, those are signs of a dying router...been there done that | 19:20 |
| Borg | I"ve been searching google & the ubuntu site for like over an hour trying to find the kern option for it but | 19:20 |
| Dr_Willis_ | dog chewing on the network cables - hard to track down also. :) | 19:21 |
| RiXtEr | oCean_: it'd be better if geev cleaned up his home dir | 19:21 |
| RiXtEr | oCean_: it'd be safer by all means | 19:21 |
| Intelli | i need help. | 19:21 |
| Alan502 | Is there any NTFS defragger for Linux? | 19:21 |
| oCean_ | RiXtEr: homedir? /home is separate partition... | 19:21 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Alan502: not really any i would trust. | 19:21 |
| alfo982 | satzo, sorry... where is network manager? | 19:21 |
| Alan502 | !ask | Intelli | 19:21 |
| ubottu | Intelli: 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. :-) | 19:21 |
| lzrdking | minche: yeah, switch cables | 19:21 |
| Satzo | alfo982, in the tray by the clock.. i assume you are using gnome | 19:22 |
| lzrdking | try that | 19:22 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Alan502: i think theres 1... but again.. i have learned its best to let windows handle the fancy ntfs stuff. | 19:22 |
| Borg | seriously nobody can answer me even with a yes or no? | 19:22 |
| Intelli | I can't get my Linksys WUSB100 to work. I've compiled the driver and everything. | 19:22 |
| Intelli | It simply doesn't do anything. | 19:22 |
| lzrdking | Borg: why do you need to hide a process? | 19:22 |
| RiXtEr | oCean_: my fault, I missed that | 19:22 |
| Borg | I wish to hide processes from other users to be shown to other users | 19:22 |
| alfo982 | satzo, right click and then edit connections? | 19:22 |
| lzrdking | just disable ps | 19:22 |
| oCean_ | geev: I don't know what you have on the rootfilesystem (/) that takes up all of the 4.6GB, but you have to do cleanup. However, be very careful, so not to delete files your system can't do w/out | 19:23 |
| Borg | eg: root should not show on johnny | 19:23 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Borg: that dident make sence.... | 19:23 |
| mewseslol | Im having trouble connecting to the internet with my network card "Marvell Yukon 88e8056", Im thinking on changing it to a static ip, might work there. Could anyone help me with setting a static ip? | 19:23 |
| Alan502 | Dr_Willis_, well thanks :) | 19:23 |
| RiXtEr | oCean_: i'd start with /var if it were me | 19:23 |
| Satzo | alfo982, yeah, poke around and look for the wireless device | 19:23 |
| Dr_Willis_ | ok that makes a little more sence.. :) | 19:23 |
| * Satzo will be right back... | 19:23 | |
| Borg | it made absolutely perfect sense lol | 19:23 |
| geev | RiXtEr: and oCean_ i have different partitions /, home, and other i tried to dell from home dir but no changes on / | 19:23 |
| Borg | so where do I disable ps at? | 19:23 |
| epinky | ganymede: is it a pendrive? | 19:23 |
| Dr_Willis_ | uninstall the binary.. perhaps.. or move the binary somewhere.. | 19:23 |
| oCean_ | geev: you might want to check the /var/log directory and/or /opt. Both of those dirs are on the rootfilesystem (/) and may contain a lot of data | 19:23 |
| RiXtEr | geev: yes I missed that /home | 19:23 |
| lzrdking | Borg: chmod -x /bin/ps | 19:23 |
| RiXtEr | geev: I am sorry | 19:23 |
| Dr_Willis_ | of course theres other ways to see processes then by using 'ps' | 19:23 |
| lzrdking | Dr_Willis_: yeah, but is johnny looking? | 19:24 |
| RiXtEr | ps ax | grep binname is the best way to find a running process | 19:24 |
| minche | lzrdking: huh? | 19:24 |
| Dr_Willis_ | lzrdking: why it is even an issue worth worring about is the bigger issue... | 19:24 |
| lzrdking | minche: give your roommate your cable and take hers, see if that makes any difference | 19:24 |
| Borg | so basically ubuntu has no way of systematically setting options to hide the UID & proceses of other usesrs from showing up to other users | 19:24 |
| lzrdking | Dr_Willis_: yeah, thats what i asked him | 19:25 |
| minche | there'0s only one cable | 19:25 |
| lzrdking | Borg: there is no need to | 19:25 |
| RiXtEr | minche: holy shit there is your problem | 19:25 |
| geev | oCean_: what about unistalling some prog will it help? | 19:25 |
| sAnta89_ | !language | RiXtEr | 19:25 |
| ubottu | RiXtEr: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 19:25 |
| oCean_ | geev: also see /var/cache/apt (that's where packages are downloaded to) | 19:25 |
| lzrdking | minche: well with only one cable, you can't both be online at the same time | 19:25 |
| Borg | well, there is need to for me so this is why I'm here. if I cannot mask processes from being visible to others then what I need is not doable | 19:25 |
| RiXtEr | lol | 19:25 |
| RiXtEr | sorry | 19:25 |
| minche | i know that | 19:25 |
| Dr_Willis_ | what is it today with people not having 100+ network cables laying around.. i thouhg that was normal? (for my room it is) | 19:25 |
| oCean_ | geev: not sure, might or might not | 19:25 |
| ganymede | epinky, it's this: Dallas Semiconductor DS1490F 2-in-1 Fob, 1-Wire adapter. it's a USB dongle for a mental ray license server that needs to be plugged in for authentication purposes | 19:25 |
| lzrdking | Dr_Willis_: only one reason i can think of: hiding a backdoor process from a sysadmin | 19:26 |
| oCean_ | geev: to clean your apt cache (where all the packages are downloaded to) do a "sudo apt-get clean" | 19:26 |
| minche | lzrdking: but she can't connect | 19:26 |
| Dr_Willis_ | lzrdking: thats about all i can think of.. Im not even sure the 'selinux' stuff can hde that info. | 19:26 |
| lzrdking | minche: it sounds like a vista and/or router issue, not an ubuntu issue | 19:26 |

| VirusTB | maco, | 19:27 |
| minche | dr_willis_: yup | 19:27 |
| VirusTB | maco thanks! | 19:27 |
| Dr_Willis_ | minche: router could be getting confused by the changeing on the fly of the gizmos. | 19:27 |
| minche | =S | 19:28 |
| Dr_Willis_ | minche: power everything off.. leave it off for... like.. 5 weeks... then try again. :) | 19:28 |
| Satzo | minche, you gota spare router to cross-test? | 19:28 |
| minche | dr_willis_ lol | 19:28 |
| epinky | ganymede: not very sure if it will work, but you can try this: "sudo -s" then "modprobe -vr ehci_hcd" then "modprobe -v ehci_hcd" | 19:28 |
| alfo982 | satzo, are you already there? | 19:28 |
| lzrdking | minche: try plugging in the cable to her computer and to a different port on the router | 19:28 |
| minche | sattzo: nope | 19:28 |
| Satzo | alfo982, no. | 19:28 |
| Dr_Willis_ | by that time santa may have brought you some more cables... | 19:28 |
| minche | lzrdking: tried that | 19:28 |
| Satzo | minche, if you got the $, run out and get one but keep everything intact. if it dont help, return for $ back | 19:28 |
| minche | i forget to buy it -.-' | 19:28 |
| lzrdking | minche: sounds like a vista issue then | 19:28 |
| alfo982 | satzo, ah ok... where? I'm using ubuntu 9.10... | 19:29 |
| Dr_Willis_ | You can get some very nice routers now for $50 :) | 19:29 |
| minche | satzo: okay ^^ | 19:29 |
| ganymede | epinky, yeah, thanks, i was afraid i'd have to do that eventually but was a bit worried about it the USB ports not coming back up for some reason | 19:29 |
| lzrdking | my money is on vista being vista | 19:29 |
| Satzo | alfo982, did you open network manager? | 19:29 |
| weirdo_ | here is my problem: I tried to install server version from 6 to 9.10 and I get the same errors every time, files are corrupt on the CD. I tried different files from different mirrors. Why none is working?? | 19:29 |
| minche | lzrdking: mine too | 19:29 |
| minche | but they are trying to force me to uninstall linux >_> | 19:29 |
| Satzo | weirdo_, replace cd/dvd rom to cross-test and/or run the crc check on boot. | 19:29 |
| RiXtEr | minche: when you get the cable plugged into vista come back and find me I will try to get you going (if you can get on irc and have the cable plugged into vista at the same time) | 19:29 |
| lzrdking | minche: try #vista | 19:29 |
| minche | =D | 19:29 |
| minche | okay | 19:30 |
| weirdo_ | Satzo: what do you mean by cross-test? | 19:30 |
| minche | bbl | 19:30 |
| lzrdking | who is forcing you to uninstall linux? | 19:30 |
| Dr_Willis_ | You are not forceing the network cable into the phone modem jack are you? :) | 19:30 |
| RiXtEr | minche: if ps ax | grep dhcpd doesn't show any processes then its not you | 19:30 |
| RiXtEr | lzrdking: MICROSOFT | 19:30 |
| lzrdking | Dr_Willis_: you can't, the network plug is too big | 19:30 |
| RiXtEr | !!! | 19:30 |
| epinky | ganymede: I did it sometime , long story ... :) | 19:30 |
| Dr_Willis_ | minche: if the linux box is not even hooked up.. and they cant connect.. well.. its not linux | 19:30 |
| lzrdking | Dr_Willis_: you can, however fit a phone plug into a lan port | 19:31 |
| masdi | hello, how to make script to install multi apps via apt-get? | 19:31 |
| Satzo | weirdo_, swap cd/dvd drive and try again..... | 19:31 |
| minche | rixter: it says - 14221 pts/0 S+ | 19:31 |
| lzrdking | i had to for some reason once | 19:31 |
| Dr_Willis_ | lzrdking: a usb flash drive can fit in the NIC port also.. :) | 19:31 |
| RiXtEr | minche: I don't think you got the entire command | 19:31 |
| RiXtEr | its | 19:31 |
| ganymede | masdi, echo "apt-get install package1 package2 pacrkage3" >> myscript.sh | 19:31 |
| RiXtEr | ps ax | grep dhcpd | 19:31 |
| minche | dr_willis_ yeah, but one guy says it's something to do with firewalls | 19:31 |
| Dr_Willis_ | masdi: make a text file that has 'sudo apt-get install whatever this that other stuff' and sh thefile | 19:31 |
| lzrdking | Dr_Willis_: yeah i did that once, when i could see where i was plugging the usb into | 19:31 |
| minche | rixter: 0:00 grep dhcp | 19:31 |
| lzrdking | couldn't | 19:31 |
| RiXtEr | minche: if its disconnected then it makes NO difference | 19:32 |
| weirdo_ | Satzo: I tried several times with different cds... | 19:32 |
| RiXtEr | minche: no problem with you then | 19:32 |
| minche | okay | 19:32 |
| minche | phew | 19:32 |
| DasEi | masdi: open a texteditor | 19:32 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | Hey I have 3 monitors set up and I was wondering, how can I force an application such as a dock application to the center monitor? | 19:32 |
| minche | so it's router | 19:32 |
| RiXtEr | no | 19:32 |
| RiXtEr | its vista! | 19:32 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | I tried like DISPLAY=:x but, that didn't work. | 19:32 |
| minche | =D | 19:32 |
| RiXtEr | its ALWAYS vista! | 19:32 |
| minche | but i tried it with live cd =/ | 19:32 |
| Satzo | weirdo_, let me say again.. another cd/dvd rom | 19:32 |
| Satzo | not the cd/dvd itself | 19:32 |
| wildc4rd | evenin' all | 19:32 |
| RiXtEr | Tell them to get a real OS | 19:32 |
| lzrdking | Dr_Willis_: what's weird is when my laptop can't connect to our wirelss at all but my wife's macbook is happily browsing the net | 19:32 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Samual-Ubuntu: deping on the app you can try 'DISPLAY=0.1 APPNAME' and it Might appear there.. | 19:32 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | Note: I have compositing working, so that's not a problem :) | 19:32 |
| alfo982 | satzo, sorry... could you tell me precisely where to find this network manager? I'm new in Linux... | 19:32 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Samual-Ubuntu: some programs are not very smart when it comes to multi-monitors | 19:32 |
| Satzo | alfo982, hover your mouse over the icons to the left of the clock. i dont run the network manager you have so i cant exactly say | 19:33 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Samual-Ubuntu: and some 'docks' have settings to what monitor to appeear on by default | 19:33 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | Dr_Willis_, That last line is an understatement... I've been digging around with getting Xinerama with XGL and Compiz to work all day... | 19:33 |
| ganymede | Samual-Ubuntu, DISPLAY=:x makes it show up on a different X server but assuming you only have one Xserver running, you want the number directly after the : to always be 0 | 19:33 |
| DasEi | masdi? | 19:33 |
| RiXtEr | Samual-Ubuntu: my biggest complaint about 2 monitors is that they switch occasionally | 19:34 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Samual-Ubuntu: i cent even do 3 moniotrs on this box. tv out takes up one of the outputs.. I was trying forever to get 2 monitors + tv out going. | 19:34 |
| minche | bbl | 19:34 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | I have a screenshot of it working, btw :P | 19:34 |
| ganymede | Samual-Ubuntu, i didn't know people still used XGL now that there is AIGLX for most drivers | 19:34 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Samual-Ubuntu: the trick is the 0.1 some apps understand the .X to mean a monitor # | 19:34 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | I'm one of the few that actually got Compiz to work on 3 monitors - 2 video cards | 19:34 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | :P | 19:34 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Samual-Ubuntu: try 'DISPLAY=:0.1 xterm' and see if it works | 19:35 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | xterm Xt error: Can't open display: :0.1 | 19:35 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | So well, guess not. | 19:35 |

| pengu8 | maco, is there a way to update alsa drivers (from alsa website) in ubuntu 9.10 on laptop without loosing soundcard in the mixer, and sound with it (what happens to me(although firefox still uses sound in that case)) | 19:50 |
| Satzo | Solar_Flare, you can build a crossover cable(google it) or get a hub/switch | 19:50 |
| Solar_Flare | Dr_Willis: it worked some days ago. | 19:50 |
| maco | pengu8: linux-backports-modules-alsa-karmic | 19:51 |
| Satzo | Snausages, sure but in PC land its hit and miss :) | 19:51 |
| RiXtEr | crossover is a simple change of 1,2,3, and 6 | 19:51 |
| lzrdking | kane77: usb 2.0 port? | 19:51 |
| maco | pengu8: we've already got new versions of alsa packaged :) | 19:51 |
| RiXtEr | where it goes to 3,6,1,2 | 19:51 |
| kane77 | lzrdking, yes, in windows it is almost instant :/ | 19:51 |
| geev | RiXtEr: i tried to uni stall some progs and i have improved but after | 19:51 |
| lzrdking | RiXtEr: not so simple if you're colorblind | 19:51 |
| Solar_Flare | ohm | 19:51 |
| Solar_Flare | that looks exactly like the cable i am using? | 19:51 |
| RiXtEr | lzrdking: I'd imagine not ;) | 19:52 |
| RiXtEr | switch the orange and green pairs is all | 19:52 |
| pengu8 | maco, thanks, I'll try adding backports asap. by the way, these backports, is it generally safe to enable them? | 19:52 |
| RiXtEr | on one end only | 19:52 |
| Snausages | Satzo: you're remembering old pcs... it's much more common now, regardless of the label on the box | 19:52 |
| Satzo | Solar_Flare, also, don't expect it to just "work" you will need to static assign IP/subnet/etc... | 19:52 |
| RiXtEr | make one side tia 568a and one side tia568b | 19:52 |
| maco | pengu8: not the backports repo. thats something else. this is in universe | 19:52 |
| Satzo | Snausages, good to know :) | 19:52 |
| Solar_Flare | how do i do that? | 19:52 |
| maco | pengu8: there's linux-backports-modules (for wireless) and linux-backports-modules-alsa (for sound) | 19:52 |
| Satzo | Solar_Flare, google static network ubuntu | 19:52 |
| RiXtEr | Solar_Flare: with ubuntu there are two ways | 19:52 |
| RiXtEr | one through the network manager | 19:52 |
| maco | pengu8: and yes its safe to get the backported alsa | 19:53 |
| pengu8 | maco, then, how can i get "linux-backports-modules-alsa-karmic"? | 19:53 |
| RiXtEr | and theother through /etc/networking/interfaces | 19:53 |
| geev | RiXtEr: i run apt-get update it says crash report detected | 19:53 |
| Satzo | Solar_Flare, if you have an old router laying around its easier to just get the router do the dirty work via dhcp | 19:53 |
| DasEi | jozefk: 50% , 20 MB | 19:53 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Just 2? this is linux! i demand at least 10 ways to do the same thing. | 19:53 |
| pengu8 | maco, then, how can i get "linux-backports-modules-alsa-karmic"? | 19:53 |
| Satzo | Dr_Willis_, hah | 19:53 |
| maco | pengu8: it should be in universe | 19:53 |
| Snausages | Satzo: keep in mind, apple is building their machines out of the same commodity parts as most PC builders, and that feature is supported in the silicon itself, nothing to do with drivers or OS. My acer does it just as well as my 4 macs. | 19:53 |
| maco | pengu8: um might end in -generic | 19:53 |

| BluesKaj | thermal_, are you using the default 4.0.5FFMPEG version ? | 21:08 |
| PigFlu | omfg this is pissing me off so much. ubuntu used to work so well, then suddenly one day the fans started sounding like an airplane | 21:08 |
| PigFlu | now its right up to 100% cpu even right after its booted | 21:09 |
| thermal_ | BluesKaj, no I'm trying to get it working with x264 support | 21:09 |
| PigFlu | java stopped working too | 21:09 |
| ath_ | PigFlu, did you install compiz or some other type of compositing? | 21:09 |
| skunkworks | virus? heh ;) | 21:09 |
| BluesKaj | thermal try the the new 0.5 version | 21:09 |
| silverfox | when i minimize some programms to tray then do a "killall gnome-panel" after the gnome-panel restarts all tray icons are disappeared :( ...is this a bug in gnome? | 21:09 |
| lzrdking | PigFlu: did you upgrade to karmic? | 21:09 |
| thermal_ | was following this guide; http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=786095 but its giving me the Error while opening encoder for output stream #0.0 - maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate, rate, width or height | 21:09 |
| PigFlu | no | 21:10 |
| echernier | no | 21:10 |
| PigFlu | i havent upgraded anything | 21:10 |
| tehpro | question - is there a way to "uncompress" or "decompile" or "dissasembly" the file "vmlinux" on linux boot CD's? | 21:10 |
| lzrdking | PigFlu: maybe your computer is overheated and it's trying to cool itself off? | 21:10 |
| lstarnes | tehpro: you mean "disassemble", not "disassembly" | 21:10 |
| PigFlu | i doubt it | 21:10 |
| tehpro | woops | 21:10 |
| islington | K|nG: not that I am aware, for one that would mean replacing the kernel on the fly... so no | 21:11 |
| PigFlu | if i leave it off an entire day, then start up ubuntu, it the fans go right up | 21:11 |
| PigFlu | it never does this | 21:11 |
| tehpro | does vmlinux contain files within it? | 21:11 |
| phyrrus | help me.. my sound quit working and I have no clue what my issue is | 21:11 |
| lzrdking | PigFlu: thats why fans go on; to cool it down | 21:11 |
| lstarnes | tehpro: I don't think it can be decompressed or disassembled like many binaries | 21:11 |
| lstarnes | tehpro: it contains the kernel only | 21:11 |
| K|nG | islington: aham ok so im reinstalling the Ubuntu :S i uninstall it and now Is installing :S | 21:11 |
| K|nG | hope will work | 21:11 |
| PigFlu | they dont immediately go to fullspeed. | 21:11 |
| gabex | question - i want to install kubuntu-desktop but keep the ubuntu splash and loading screens (not kubuntu) at boot time, can i do that? | 21:11 |
| PigFlu | regardless, it doesnt explain why the CPU is at 100%, immediately after booting | 21:12 |
| PigFlu | this is some serious bullshit | 21:12 |
| lstarnes | tehpro: the kernel is a single program not containing any files | 21:12 |
| Luyang | is du -sh the way to go to find used space in current dir? | 21:12 |
| lzrdking | PigFlu: i think someone directed you to top | 21:12 |
| discopatrick | where should i generally install stuff on ubuntu/linux? is it the /usr/bin folder? | 21:12 |
| lstarnes | Luyang: I usually use du -h . | 21:12 |
| phyrrus | somebody help | 21:12 |
| lstarnes | discopatrick: if you don't use the package system, use the directories under /usr/local/ | 21:12 |
| gabex | if you're not using apt packages keep stuff in /usr/local | 21:12 |
| lzrdking | discopatrick: usually /usr/local, or somtimes /opt | 21:13 |
| Xecuter | how can i get an input source to play through speakers? | 21:13 |
| Xecuter | pulseaudio | 21:13 |
| phyrrus | hey | 21:13 |
| discopatrick | hmm. what does /usr/local "mean", so to speak? | 21:13 |
| PigFlu | lzrdking: im not seeing anything useful in top | 21:13 |
| phyrrus | my audio quit working.. how do i fix it? i have isolated it to pulseaudio | 21:14 |
| guntbert | Luyang: or du -sh * | 21:14 |
| SeattleOtaku | gabex, I have Ubuntu and manually saved the xubuntu splash (like the blue more than brown). Look in /usr/share/images/xsplash | 21:14 |
| === sysop is now known as Guest2226 | ||
| lstarnes | discopatrick: it's for applications that are not installed using the package management system | 21:14 |

| islington | anyone have any idea when kde 4.4 packages will be availible for testing in Karmic? | 21:14 |
| lstarnes | discopatrick: also, man hier | 21:14 |
| discopatrick | ahh, thanks | 21:15 |
| BluesKaj | thermal_, there's a lot of info here www.ffmpeg.org it may help you | 21:15 |
| thermal_ | BluesKaj, just managed to get it working | 21:15 |
| soio | Hi PigFlu I suppose you're talking about karmic, I noticed exactly the same your symptoms and returned back to jaunty and all problems disappeared. I'm a beginner so I'm not able to investigate | 21:15 |
| lzrdking | PigFlu: sort the output by cpu and see whats making it go to 100% | 21:15 |
| thermal_ | turned out much simpler than the guides I was finding | 21:15 |
| thermal_ | sudo apt-get install ffmpeg libavcodec-extra-52 | 21:15 |
| jmichels1n | I'm trying to rename a batch of files but with incremental numbers in the file name, anyone have an idea to do that? | 21:15 |
| Intelli | My drivers for my wireless usb device won't auto load. How do I fix this? | 21:16 |
| enapupe | any common trouble in last 3 or 4 ubuntu 9.10 updates? | 21:16 |
| lzrdking | i am running karmic and my cpu is at 50% (out of 200%) most of the time | 21:16 |
| gabex | Seattle: but how do I select it at boot time? | 21:16 |
| qdii | Hello. What graphical diff tool would you recommend ? I'm using Gnome | 21:16 |
| jmichels1n | Intelli: sudo lsmod | grep -i <yourdrivermanufacture> if they show up there, they areloaded, if not, sudo modprobe driver | 21:16 |
| tehpro | where are files such as ".initcall.init" ".init.setup" ".exit.text" ".init.text" "__param" "__bug_table" etc stored? | 21:16 |
| PigFlu | i dont know what karmic is, but thanks. i guess | 21:16 |
| soio | There should be some sort of bug in karmic .... | 21:16 |
| oCean_ | jmichels1n: use "seq" Example: seq 1 10 will print 1-10 | 21:17 |
| jmichels1n | tehpro: sudo updatedb && sudo locate <filename | 21:17 |
| soio | karmic koala is version 9.10 of ubuntu, jaunty is 9.04... | 21:17 |
| gabex | also, i need to use all ubuntu splash images - boot, loading system, and logging into X | 21:17 |
| gabex | it's okay i guess, I'm installing every kde package i need manually heh. | 21:17 |
| guntbert | qdii: I mostly use meld, but there is diff-ext too | 21:17 |
| jmichels1n | oCean_: im using prename to rename them, do you know if seq willwork in perl? | 21:17 |
| guntbert | !ot | soio | 21:17 |
| ubottu | soio: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 21:17 |
| oCean_ | jmichels1n: sorry, no clue about perl.. | 21:18 |
| SeattleOtaku | gabex: It's not so much select at boot, but rewrite the images to the ones you want. Mine's basically the blue xubuntu tree img but with Ubuntu's Gnome login. | 21:18 |
| soio | ok thanks | 21:18 |
| jmichels1n | oCean_: well, seq helps I think but what would you suggest using to rename them with it? :) | 21:18 |
| oCean_ | jmichels1n: "mv" ? | 21:18 |
| thermal_ | BluesKaj, thanks for the help, much appreciated | 21:19 |
| jmichels1n | oCean_: I don't think that would work.. to rename a batch of files all at once at least | 21:19 |
| ZeroKewl | anyone ever find a fix for buzzing sound in 9.10 while playing Smokein' Guns | 21:19 |
| thermal_ | I just posted a new comment in that thread saying to install libavcodec-extra-52 so hopefully that will make it easier for others as well | 21:19 |

| Alan502 | how do i create a link to a command? like "python FretsOnFire.py" | 21:20 |
| Cheaterman | Hi, what is the default keybind for "show desktop" please ? | 21:20 |
| Alan502 | that way, when i press the link button it will execute the command automatically | 21:20 |

| switch10_ | does the search feature ever work to find a program in usr/bin?? | 21:20 |
| switch10_ | it never works for me | 21:20 |
| BluesKaj | thermal_, I switched to the 0.5 version for my TiVo and pyTivo apps ...it seems to do a better on the fly decoding or stdin and out if decoding isn';t needed on video transfers on our LAN | 21:20 |
| Alan502 | Cheaterman, do you have compiz enabled? | 21:20 |
| oCean_ | switch10_: search? | 21:21 |
| trism | Alan502: in gnome, right click, add to panel, custom application, then put that command in, although you'll probably need the full path to FretsOnFire.py | 21:21 |
| switch10_ | for example clicking on a link in firefox and it asks you what you want to open the file with | 21:21 |

| ZeroKewl | any help with the buzzing sound | 21:21 |
| Cheaterman | Alan502: (not me personally in fact, it's a friend, I'm not a Ubuntu-user) | 21:22 |
| switch10_ | i just installed 9.01 and was hoping it would work | 21:22 |
| islington | switch10_: you need to have /usr/bin indexed, afaik | 21:22 |
| switch10_ | oh | 21:22 |
| switch10_ | haha | 21:22 |
| switch10_ | makes sense | 21:22 |
| islington | switch10_: I wish I could help more, but I no longer am on gnome | 21:22 |
| jmichels1n | oCean_: very interesting, I may be able to tweak that to work, thank you | 21:22 |
| BluesKaj | thermal_, great , it's a very cool app :) | 21:22 |
| Alan502 | Cheaterman, check the Show Desktop settings on compiz config | 21:22 |
| switch10_ | islington: thanks I can get it from there | 21:22 |

| oCean_ | jmichels1n: ok! | 21:23 |
| infid | what else can i do? | 21:23 |
| trism | Alan502: I imagine it is similar for KDE, but I haven't used it in a while | 21:23 |
| thermal_ | BluesKaj, yeah gource is cool stuff, I saw it a while back when I was still on my osx laptop and it wasn't really working in osx, but I built my ubuntu box and I've got it rolling, figured my boss would get a kick out of a visual update of what I've been working on | 21:23 |
| Alan502 | trism, i'll keep looking, thanks buddy | 21:23 |
| Cheaterman | Alan502: Okay | 21:24 |
| kchapman | theoretically, 9.04 clean install upgraded to 9.10 is the same as a 9.10 clean install, right? | 21:24 |
| islington | Alan502: in kde there is input actions under system settings | 21:25 |
| switch10_ | kchapman: nope | 21:25 |
| lstarnes | kchapman: no | 21:25 |
| kchapman | why not? | 21:25 |
| Alan502 | Cheaterman, if not, try right clicking on the show desktop icon. At least that works here in KDE and i assume something similar should be in gnome. | 21:25 |
| lstarnes | kchapman: they are similar though | 21:25 |
| guntbert | kchapman: apart from a different file system and a different bootmanager :-) | 21:25 |
| IrCYop | Could anyone pastebin /etc/init.d/networking for me. Aciddently overwrote it | 21:25 |
| switch10_ | kchapman: there is stuff left behind. its better to just clean install | 21:25 |
| lstarnes | kchapman: but things that are done in 9.10's installer that aren't done in the update won't be done | 21:25 |
| kchapman | what, 9.10 doesn't use ext4? | 21:25 |
| crohakon | kchapman, why bother installing 9.04 if you want 9.10? Why not just download 9.10 if you want a clean install? | 21:25 |
| lstarnes | kchapman: it does use ext4 | 21:25 |
| maco | kchapman: yes it does | 21:25 |
| === sysop is now known as Guest92671 | ||
| maco | kchapman: on a clean install. it wont inplace upgrade. that could be dangerous | 21:26 |
| lstarnes | kchapman: but you have to manually switch your filesystems to ext4 | 21:26 |
| kchapman | Oh, ok. I should probably download the new iso, then? :P | 21:26 |
| IrCYop | Could anyone pastebin /etc/init.d/networking for me. Aciddently overwrote it | 21:26 |
| crohakon | kchapman, *nods* Yes | 21:26 |
| switch10_ | I used ext3. Im afraid of ext4 | 21:26 |
| Alan502 | islington, what type of input actions? | 21:26 |
| crohakon | switch10_, I was wondering about that as well... I heard ext4 was unstable. | 21:26 |
| islington | Alan502: you said you want to run a script when you press a keyboard button right?> | 21:27 |
| BluesKaj | thermal_, right on , linux needs all the ambassadors we can get :) | 21:27 |
| switch10_ | crohakon: yeah im not trusting it just yet | 21:27 |
| kchapman | Is there any way I can install directly from my computer e.g. (no middleman usb-key) I have Xp installed already, but I want that to be wiped so the full drive is used for Ubuntu | 21:27 |
| IrCYop | anyone? | 21:27 |
| switch10_ | ext3 is fine | 21:27 |
| KB1JWQ | kchapman: No. | 21:27 |
| islington | ext4 is faster on cold boot for me | 21:27 |
| crohakon | kchapman, just download the iso. Quit stalling and get it over with. =) | 21:28 |

| ubottu | netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit | 21:34 |

| alankila | ademos: the key of the problem is the "Unsupported number of siblings: 4" message. I am not sure what to make of it, though. | 23:30 |
| ademos | zoug, my bios? Well during boot-up, all 4 cores are detected; plus Ubuntu 9.04 and earlier detected all four | 23:30 |
| erUSUL | ademos: i can see this [ 0.020050] weird, boot CPU (#0) not listed by the BIOS. | 23:30 |

| Charon_1 | Wow, large channel. I'm trying to install Ubuntu on my old Wibrain again, but the standard installer doesn't use the right screen and the MID version doesn't work period.

| ademos | erUSUL, well there's definitely an issue with my model then... | 23:40 |
| Charon_1 | Is anyone familiar with the alternate installer .iso? | 23:40 |
| alankila | ademos: I have no clue what it does, but it solved someone's problem like yours. You add these by editing the grub kernel boot line, the one that specs root device etc. | 23:40 |
| erUSUL | ademos: SMP motherboard not detected. SMP disabled SMP alternatives: switching to UP code <<<< three more courios lines | 23:41 |

I get taken to the grub page, I try and run ubuntu but I get an error that says /dec/sda2 file path doesn't not e | 23:41 |
| ademos | alankila, their problem was a multi-core only detecting 1? | 23:41 |
| alankila | ademos: yes | 23:41 |
| erUSUL | ademos: i would check bios settings related to CPU SMP etc... | 23:41 |

| alankila | ademos: the "nommconf" disables something called mmconfig that your system is also using according to the boot-up messages. You might be booting with cores disabled according to bios, or your bios may be bad. I don't know, try to fix it first from bios if there's anything suitable. | 23:44 |

| xlberz | i have a monitor that natively handles 2048x1152, however gnome-display-properties only allows me to go up to 1680x1050, which is the max resolution of my 2nd monitor. when I run the larger monitor alone I can select 2048x1152. any way of having both of them running at their max resolution? thanks | 23:58 |
