(/ is located on /dev/sda1 and /dev/sdc1 and /home is located on /dev/sda6 and i managed to blow it away on /dev/sdc6) i want to go back to using no raid, so what i was THINKING of doing is formatting /dev/sda1, /dev/sdc1, and /dev/sdc6 ... and reinstalling ubuntu to /dev/sda1 and using /dev/sda6 as /home. does this work? would | 00:03 |

| rod_ | howdy! How does one evaluate whether an SD port is working with Ubuntu? I have two SD cards that I verified work in other computers, so I worry the port I'm using is dead. Anyway to quickly check? | 01:06 |
| ActionParsnip1 | zsquareplusc: you will then get an x server, you can then reinstall the driver. You can also use: sudo nvidia-xconfig | 01:06 |

| n8tuser | kingleo-> i dont know, but you can install a fedora within ubuntu, either via chroot or vm | 01:13 |
| maco | kingleo: yum is the package manager uesd in fedora | 01:13 |
| ZzTop | is foo/bar the new location ? or is that teh directory to be copied ? | 01:13 |
| Ziber | ZzTop: foo/ is the directory you want to copy, bar/ is where you want to copy it to | 01:14 |

| Dacvak | ae86-drifter, what' | 01:42 |

| lstarnes | git__: .01 is not used in versions. It's usually .04 (April) or .10 (October) | 01:44 |
| Helsinkiii | the default stuff makes it look a bit like a children's toy | 01:44 |
| Pytlask | mdg: Any idea what I should do after installing that package? Still not working :( | 01:44 |
| jacquesdupontd | Exaltia, i'm stupid i guess it's nothing in match with grub version it has to do with the kernel version | 01:44 |
| Helsinkiii | goose-i downloaded it | 01:44 |
| Untouchab1e | I have a minor issue with Ubuntu 9.10.. it occasionally disconnects from the wifi network.. not a problem in itself, but it doesnt automatically reconnect | 01:44 |
| lstarnes | git__: and the most distant planned release is 10.04 | 01:44 |
| Helsinkiii | goose-but i mean, more high tech icons, sharper edges.....less of the brown and bubbly | 01:44 |
| brady | whats up everyone | 01:44 |
| brady | ? | 01:44 |
| brady | I need some help | 01:45 |
| Untouchab1e | and since I usually dont access the machine physically, but over SSH, its impossible when it keeps disconnecting from Wifi and not reconnecting again | 01:45 |
| jelly-bean | i just installed Ubuntu 9.10 and told it to erase the whole drive and auto partition for me... install succeeded but it boots to just the word "GRUB". The LiveCD portion works tho as I am using it to chat here now. Any ideas? | 01:45 |
| losha | goose: alias foo='ssh foo@baz.com' Put it in your .bashrc file. Now every time you type foo it will be as though you typed ssh foo@baz | 01:45 |
| Untouchab1e | so anyone have any idea? maybe a setting or something that instructs Ubuntu to automatically reconnect to the network? | 01:45 |
| goose | losha: thank you thank you thank you thank you you rock | 01:45 |
| Darten | ae86-drifter: now I remember again; while on Debian, it didn’t recognize the destination I wanted to use, but on Windows, it didn’t even eat the source file! | 01:46 |

| felichas | losha: I don't think you can do that, but you can always alias ssh_ircd | 01:48 |
| blakkheim | brady: wine | 01:48 |
| brady | I tried, no bueno | 01:49 |
| Bunta | huh | 01:49 |
| losha | goose: no, but you can call the alias something like ssh-ircd e.g. alias ssh-ircd=ssh ircd@mynetwork.org' which is *almost* as good... | 01:49 |
| felichas | losha: double tab will work fine | 01:49 |
| === Bunta is now known as Trunkz | ||
| blakkheim | brady: then use a virtual machine or dualboot | 01:49 |
| Trunkz | . | 01:49 |

| brady | what i the best x64 browser for linux so I can utilize flash player x64? | 01:50 |
| LuisGMarine | Darten, didn't work | 01:50 |
| grafixbadnow | the file is named evolution-backup.tar.gz, which looks correct according to google | 01:50 |
| LuisGMarine | brady, chrome | 01:50 |
| blakkheim | brady: firefox or chromium | 01:50 |
| LuisGMarine | brady, I got flash working on firefox just fine, but I find chrome is just smoother right now than Firefox is | 01:50 |
| brady | you probably have the power saver feature on, check under properties, wireless | 01:51 |
| jacquesdupontd | Exaltia, just for you to know if one time you need the info and for others you have to add the line maxcpus=N instead of maxcores=N | 01:51 |
| jacquesdupontd | Exaltia, and it woks | 01:51 |
| git__ | chrome is the firefox team | 01:51 |
| brady | I couldnt find the firefox x64 download | 01:51 |
| blakkheim | brady: aptitude install firefox..? :/ | 01:51 |
| git__ | one day, Google will kill the firefox project, and make everyone use Chrome | 01:51 |
| Canto | one can only hope git | 01:51 |
| brady | come again | 01:51 |
| LuisGMarine | brady, the flash plugin or a 64 bit version of firefox? | 01:51 |
| git__ | it's part of Google convergence strategy | 01:51 |
| ae86-drifter | google has already stolen and killed it | 01:51 |
| Canto | death to firefox is my motto | 01:51 |
| brady | the browser | 01:52 |
| blakkheim | brady: are you using 64bit ubbuntu? | 01:52 |
| blakkheim | ubuntu* | 01:52 |
| brady | of course | 01:52 |
| blakkheim | then just aptitude install firefox | 01:52 |
| LuisGMarine | brady, if you are running 64-bit ubuntu it's already installed .... | 01:52 |
| brady | on an Asus N80vb notebook | 01:52 |
| brady | I set up a dual boot config using Ubunto x64 and windows 7 x64 | 01:52 |

| Darten | LuisGMarine: How do you know it didn’t work? | 01:52 |
| git__ | :) | 01:52 |
| brady | what is aptitude? | 01:53 |
| blakkheim | brady: man sptitude | 01:53 |
| blakkheim | brady: it's a tool for managing software in debian/ubuntu | 01:53 |
| blakkheim | sorry, typos | 01:53 |
| LuisGMarine | Darten, you said find -iname '*.mp4' /path/to/folder | 01:53 |
| brady | ahhhh, I see, | 01:53 |
| Canto | or applications>software manager | 01:53 |
| brady | I get the drift | 01:53 |
| brady | thanks my man | 01:53 |
| blakkheim | brady: things like synaptic are just graphical front-ends for aptitude and/or apt-get | 01:53 |

| ae86-drifter | how would i turn the wireless power save feature off :S?? | 01:55 |
| blakkheim | jelly-bean: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 01:56 |
| brady | do you dualboot linux and windows? | 01:56 |
| LlamaZorz | brady: I already have ownership | 01:56 |
| Darten | LuisGMarine: I know what I said, but I asked: why do you think it didn’t work? | 01:56 |
| brady | drifter | 01:56 |
| Untouchab1e | quick question.. the "reboot" command.. how can I specify that it should reboot in like.. 100 seconds? | 01:56 |
| LuisGMarine | Darten, find: paths must precede expression: /home/luis/Music/ | 01:56 |
| LuisGMarine | Usage: find [-H] [-L] [-P] [-Olevel] [-D help|tree|search|stat|rates|opt|exec] [path...] [expression] | 01:56 |
| ae86-drifter | brady, i have quad boot :D | 01:57 |
| Untouchab1e | sudo reboot 100? | 01:57 |
| ae86-drifter | sudo reboot now | 01:57 |
| Untouchab1e | that would be now | 01:57 |
| Untouchab1e | not in 100 seconds >.< | 01:57 |
| ae86-drifter | oh | 01:57 |
| Untouchab1e | :) | 01:57 |
| losha | jelly-bean:it should be easy enough to just reinstall grub, but to 'fix' it would depend on why it's broken in the first place.... | 01:57 |
| ae86-drifter | hehe | 01:57 |
| ae86-drifter | i didnt read properly | 01:57 |
| Untouchab1e | hehe | 01:57 |
| Untouchab1e | got any idea though? | 01:57 |
| ae86-drifter | reboot --help | 01:57 |
| jelly-bean | what does it mean when pc boots to just the word "GRUB" and sits there? all you can do is CTRL+ALT+DEL... its not the grub> terminal and there are no errors displayed | 01:57 |

| losha | dang. felichas beat me to it again! | 01:58 |
| felichas | OPTIONS -r Requests that the system be rebooted after it has been brought down. | 01:58 |
| felichas | jajaja | 01:58 |
| brady | that may not be exact but should help | 01:58 |

| brady | boot using -v to see errors | 01:58 |
| LuisGMarine | Darten, but still not what I"m looking for, arghghg | 01:58 |
| Untouchab1e | felichas: yeah, -r for rebooting, but how to set the time? | 01:59 |
| Darten | LuisGMarine: you said: all *.mp4 in a folder? | 01:59 |
| LuisGMarine | Darten, well yeah | 01:59 |
| edgarsvss | how can i install ubuntu in kubuntu using the ubuntu cd? | 01:59 |
| felichas | man time..... TIME may have different formats, the most common is simply the word ’now’ which will bring | 01:59 |
| felichas | the system down immediately. Other valid formats are +m, where m is the number of minutes | 01:59 |
| felichas | to wait until shutting down and hh:mm which specifies the time on the 24hr clock | 01:59 |

| trism | ZzTop: mv old_directory_name new_directory_name | 02:02 |
| LuisGMarine | blakkheim, displays 0, which means there is another format other tahn mp4 | 02:02 |
| Iowan | Untouchable: or shutdown -r hh:mm for time in 24 hour format | 02:02 |
| ae86-drifter | you could also use this # sleep 10;reboot now where 10 is 10secs | 02:02 |
| LuisGMarine | blakkheim, I'm trying to find everything that is NOT .mp3 | 02:03 |
| losha | edgarsvss: you have to tell it to use the cd as a source by editing /etc/apt/sources.list | 02:03 |

| arghh2d2 | panfist: run a live linux distribution on a usb key | 02:13 |
| LuisGMarine | felichas, I was going to but then songbird copied them over to my iPod. lol it wasn't doing it before I don't know what suddenly made it copy them | 02:13 |
| maxinux61 | Flannel: Thanks, is there a PPA for Thunderbird 3 anywhere? | 02:13 |
| LuisGMarine | felichas, appriciate the help brother, take it easy | 02:13 |
| LuisGMarine | maxinux61, yes hold on let me find you the link | 02:13 |
| panfist | arghh2d2 could you do the same with an external spinning hard disk for better performance? | 02:13 |
| maxinux61 | linux ppa | 02:13 |
| Gorgatron | blakkheim: do you know the logout command? | 02:13 |
| mine | krishna :you can get it | 02:13 |

| dem0buntu | hi there guys, any help about kernel panics in wubi? all updated kernels at some point break, only workins is the default one | 02:14 |
| ubottu | andy: 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. :-) | 02:14 |

| losha | dem0buntu: unfortunately, wubi isn't well supported. Is there some reason you can't stick with the default working kernel? | 02:14 |
| arghh2d2 | panfist: not really, flash drives are faster than spinning drives, perform better | 02:14 |
| LuisGMarine | maxinux61, follow that thread also has solutions for some problems that people were running into | 02:15 |
| PoisonSerpent_ | linuxman410: was correcting a typo. | 02:15 |

| JackVermicelli | arghh2d2, Not necessarily. I have a netbook with an SSD, and the SSD is crap. | 02:16 |
| LuisGMarine | JackVermicelli, 32 or 64 bit? | 02:16 |
| dem0buntu | so, I better stick with default kernell? | 02:16 |

| blakkheim | krishna: then it's not running, you could try temporarily moving ~/.mozilla somewhere and then opening firefox, (it will create a new directory of the same name) | 02:18 |
| losha | dem0buntu: sorry, I dunno enough about wubi to advise you. If you really need a reliable ubuntu, consider a proper dual-boot, or vmware/virtualbox.... | 02:19 |

| jed_ | is there a way to change the resolution of the screen during the installer? half of the installer is off-screen, and "Safe Graphics Mode" just drops me to a flickering framebuffer console when I run the installer with it -- is there any kind of magic (on another VT perhaps) to force the installer to a not autodetect the resolution? | 02:23 |
| jed_ | this is the karmic installer | 02:23 |
| dem0buntu | on karmic | 02:23 |
| zoug | krishna: there is one xxxxxx.default file i guess, thats the profile folder that you want to back up. and eventually there is also a add-on that can do that for you.. | 02:23 |
| panfist | arghh2d2 that is compeltely false. the only thing usb thumb drives have on conventional spinning disks is small amounts of random seeking...in terms of r/w speed, they're lower, and random iops, much lower | 02:23 |
| krishna | losha : ~/.mozilla/firefox/*default/.parentlock | 02:23 |
| Mike_lifeguard | What is the karmic kernel by default? | 02:23 |
| dem0buntu | and working like a champ.....besides the kernel panic :P | 02:23 |
| panfist | arghh2d2 http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/archives/001127.html | 02:23 |
| losha | krishna: nothing to lose at this point, try rm-ing the .parenlock file & see if that fixes it... | 02:24 |
| dem0buntu | how many partitions can a hard drive have? cause I already have 4 :P | 02:24 |
| losha | dem0buntu: my impression from reading this channel is that wubi is prone to problems.... | 02:25 |

| dem0buntu | super grub disk? for wubi? | 02:27 |
| losha | Mike_lifeguard: because new kernels come out periodically, so when you update, you get the latest, so it's always changing, and rarely matters what the precise version is... | 02:27 |
| dem0buntu | it will see it? | 02:27 |
| ae86-drifter | dem0buntu, it should | 02:28 |
| dem0buntu | ok, im downloading to see what happens | 02:28 |
| losha | dem0buntu: uncharted territory, I think. But I agree with ae86-drifter. It *should*... | 02:28 |
| panfist | arghh2d2 i can't tell if you sound sarcastic or not. anyway glad i could help | 02:28 |
| ae86-drifter | dem0buntu, whenever i have had any grub issues, i always run that CD and 1 minute later its working perfectly | 02:29 |

| danobook | eternaljoy, it was released in 9/10/09 | 02:34 |
| danobook | two months ago or so | 02:34 |
| The_Rufus | Mike_lifeguard: but it was working fine yesterday and nothing has changed | 02:34 |
| Mike_lifeguard | The_Rufus: You should check that they are trying to boot using the right uuid | 02:34 |
| losha | eternaljoy: why would you think it was a joke? | 02:35 |

| eternaljoy | losha, i thought it was just released | 02:35 |

| danobook | ae86-drifter, SGD doesn't help with wubi much | 02:36 |

| danobook | eternaljoy, click the link that mentions torrents and such | 02:39 |
| danobook | Alternative download options, including Ubuntu installer for Windows | 02:40 |
| MikeChelen | Phuzion: that all looks right, maybe try reinstalling the java firefox plugin? | 02:40 |
| losha | eternaljoy: sorry, http://releases.ubuntu.com/karmic/ | 02:40 |
| danobook | it's somewhere in there | 02:40 |
| eternaljoy | danobook, I dont want the torrent... I dont have a torrent cllient.. where is ALTERNATE 9.10 ISO? | 02:40 |
| eco_ | hi all | 02:40 |
| eco_ | poland chanell | 02:41 |
| danobook | eternaljoy, in there section where it links to other things (such as torrents) there's Text-based installer » | 02:41 |
| === Home_ is now known as matthew12 | ||
| danobook | clicky | 02:41 |
| dem0buntu | I still need 2 partitions for ubuntu? one for ext and 1 for swap? | 02:41 |
| losha | dem0buntu: ubuntu will boot from a logical partition, if that helps... | 02:41 |
| Dacvak | Hey guys, I'm having extreme difficulty installing Ubuntu using a USB stick. Could someone help me? | 02:41 |
| eternaljoy | danobook, only torrent ones.. but no ISO | 02:41 |
| MikeChelen | !download | eternaljoy | 02:41 |
| ubottu | eternaljoy: 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! | 02:41 |
| danobook | and you can torrent the alt too | 02:41 |
| Dacvak | I keep getting an error like "usb 1-2 reset high speed USB Device using ehci_hcd and address 2" | 02:41 |
| Phuzion | mikechelen I've worked on this w/ several people we at one point completely removed it, re-added it updated it... the odd part is that I'm running a dual boot system.... so I run win and Ubuntu on same Drive just partitioned and I'm having freeze problems in Windows too | 02:41 |
| danobook | The text based alternate installer can be downloaded from the complete list of download locations below. | 02:41 |
| danobook | did you clic k that? | 02:41 |
| matthew12 | so it appears my cd drive is jacked up...can I install ubuntu from an external hard drive? | 02:41 |
| danobook | dem0buntu, yes, well you dont' *need* swap | 02:42 |
| losha | eternaljoy: see my url above | 02:42 |
| eternaljoy | I think I found it.... http://releases.ubuntu.com/karmic/ubuntu-9.10-alternate-i386.iso | 02:42 |
| danobook | dem0buntu, but most linux users use it | 02:42 |
| eternaljoy | losha, yes thanks to you\ | 02:42 |
| MikeChelen | Phuzion: it may be a system problem then, such as memory or power supply errors | 02:42 |
| eternaljoy | I want the Alternate so I can choose to encrypt the whole file system when installing | 02:42 |
| dem0buntu | but could I use like a loop swap or whatever, forgot the name :P | 02:42 |
| danobook | dem0buntu, or no swap :P | 02:43 |
| The_Rufus | how can I get to the gnome menu using only a keyboard? | 02:43 |
| MikeChelen | matthew12: yes, as long as your system can boot from USB | 02:43 |
| dem0buntu | well, i have 4 gigs here so... | 02:43 |
| losha | dem0buntu: depends on how much ram you have. And if you want to suspend or not... | 02:43 |
| Phuzion | mikechelen this computer is only a couple years old... I don't suspect memory being the problem.... however I don't think I follow you on what power would have to do with that? | 02:43 |
| danobook | dem0buntu, so do i | 02:43 |
| MikeChelen | eternaljoy: that looks like the right disk image | 02:43 |
| airtonix | The_Rufus, keyboard shortcuts app in the menus | 02:43 |
| losha | dem0buntu: what do you do for swap when you boot slack? | 02:43 |
| eco_ | i have qiestion, someone know why on new ubuntu 9.10 wifi and rj-45 not works? | 02:43 |
| matthew12 | it can...but I also have lots of other files on the external hd...how would I do this? | 02:43 |
| The_Rufus | i don't have a mouse attached | 02:43 |
| The_Rufus | how do I get into the menus? | 02:43 |
| eco_ | i have laptop Acer Aspire 5739G | 02:44 |
| Mike_lifeguard | apt-get update is giving me an error: Duplicate sources.list entry http://ppa.launchpad.net karmic/main Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/ppa.launchpad.net_ubuntu-boot_ppa_ubuntu_dists_karmic_main_binary-i386_Packages) -- however I don't see that I have any PPA duplicated in sources.list :\ | 02:44 |
| dem0buntu | uses some dat file, cant recall, dont use it so often | 02:44 |
| eternaljoy | MikeChelen, yes :) | 02:44 |
| dem0buntu | I call it at boot time | 02:44 |
| matthew12 | MikeChelen (sorry didnt tag you at first): it can...but I also have lots of other files on the external hd...how would I do this | 02:44 |
| eternaljoy | http://releases.ubuntu.com/karmic/ubuntu-9.10-alternate-i386.iso <-- this is the one I needed :) | 02:44 |
| MikeChelen | Phuzion: if there is a something that uses the cpu alot, and the power supply is faulty, it may not be providing enough current | 02:44 |
| airtonix | The_Rufus, one sec there are other key combos to get there | 02:44 |
| _nick_ | Mike_lifegaurd: go to your source.list and comment out the dupliate | 02:44 |
| dem0buntu | from menu.lst........mmmhhh, now that I recall, I think I dont use any swap :P | 02:44 |
| MikeChelen | eternaljoy: yuppers :) | 02:44 |
| danobook | The_Rufus, alt-F1 | 02:44 |
| eternaljoy | MikeChelen, :-) | 02:45 |
| airtonix | The_Rufus, Are you using compiz? | 02:45 |
| eternaljoy | lokian: ty | 02:45 |
| The_Rufus | nope | 02:45 |
| danobook | The_Rufus, did alt-f1 work? | 02:45 |
| The_Rufus | ahh, thanks danobook | 02:45 |
| losha | dem0buntu: try it without swap. You can always monitor memory use and add a swapfile later if necessary. Worst case, some apps will die on you... | 02:45 |
| airtonix | The_Machine, ok press : alt + f1 | 02:45 |
| Mike_lifeguard | _nick_: There is no duplicate, however one of the PPAs doesn't have source - so the deb-src line was wrong. I removed it. | 02:45 |
| MikeChelen | matthew12: you can set up separate partitions for file storage and boot, but it may be easier to get another USB drive | 02:45 |
| danobook | The_Rufus, yw | 02:45 |
| tvaughn | any idea why flash games would be slow on ubuntu> | 02:45 |
| cheesepoop | Can anyone recommend a newsreader for usenet? | 02:45 |
| Phuzion | mikechelen.... I suppose that COULD possibly be an issue? I have noticed that the battery life when not running on ac has become horrible since I reinstalled Ubuntu | 02:45 |
| dem0buntu | I was thinking, can I transform my fat 32 to ext 4 and still boot my slack folders from the winBlows 7 bootloader? | 02:45 |
| _nick_ | Mike_lifeguard: oh | 02:45 |
| randy_ | any1 know y brutal chess seems slow and kinda has latency on moving your p's? | 02:46 |
| airtonix | The_Machine, mistell | 02:46 |
| emanux | hello, how recover a deleted file? | 02:46 |
| losha | cheesepoop: text or binaries, or both. slrn for text, klibido for binaries.... | 02:46 |
| Mike_lifeguard | _nick_: Yeah :\ You'd think apt would give a better description of the actual problem | 02:46 |
| MikeChelen | Phuzion: it's only a guess, because if both windows and ubuntu are crashing, it sounds like some hardware problem | 02:46 |
| emanux | any tool for that matter? | 02:46 |
| randy_ | i know it's a 3d game and I have compiz running fine | 02:46 |
| MikeChelen | Phuzion: usual suspects are memory, hard disk, power supply, and motherboard | 02:46 |
| The_Rufus | ahhh, i see. New kernel might have issues booting with only 152kb of HDD space | 02:46 |

| airtonix | randy_, yes there is it is called moblock | 02:53 |
| felichas | fizk_: what's the error? | 02:53 |
| dem0buntu | rick, download the multimedia package for ubuntu | 02:53 |
| MikeChelen | Phuzion: haha, it's worth running diagnostic problems like that, since it's easier than swapping hardware to find what is broken. look for some similar utilities to monitor power supply voltage, and temperature sensors | 02:53 |
| rick__ | tvaughn - handbrake is a program? is it in synaptic? | 02:53 |
| blakkheim | matthew12: it will let you install an ubuntu iso on your external drive | 02:53 |
| airtonix | randy_, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MoBlock | 02:53 |
| tvaughn | i believe so | 02:53 |
| randy_ | how can 1 protect from snoopers when your on the Pirate's ship | 02:53 |

| dem0buntu | let me check | 02:54 |
| losha | rick_: top hit in google: http://handbrake.fr/downloads.php | 02:55 |
| rick__ | losha - i actually just googled that site, thank you anyways | 02:55 |
| AOC | someone broke into my Ubuntu system :( | 02:55 |
| AOC | changed my root password | 02:55 |
| fizk_ | felichas, hmmm, aptitude let me downgrade pidgin-dadta | 02:55 |
| losha | rick__: it has karmic debs... | 02:55 |
| matthew12 | blakkheim, thank you I will look into it...and Mike Chelen, thank you as well. #Ubuntu has always rescued me from my mistakes :). | 02:55 |

| rick__ | oh thank god debs, i'm getting sick of tarballs! | 02:56 |

| redonk | AOC, did u get my messages? | 02:56 |
| AOC | blakkheim, i haven't figured that out yet | 02:56 |
| AOC | redonk, the guy just changed my root password | 02:56 |
| Mike_lifeguard | AOC: can you still sudo? | 02:56 |
| redonk | AOC: there are some 0day kernel exploits going around right now | 02:56 |
| blakkheim | AOC: local break-in? ssh? | 02:56 |
| losha | rick__: handbrake is particularly nasty, it downloads and compiles source for every single codec... | 02:56 |
| AOC | maybe Apache or SHH | 02:56 |
| AOC | only services I have running really | 02:57 |
| rick__ | losha - thats nasty in a good way correct? | 02:57 |
| blakkheim | losha: what's wrong with that? | 02:57 |
| Phuzion | mikechelen similar utilities where? and like what? | 02:57 |
| redonk | AOC: i wouldnt count out Kernel :) expecially if your runing ecrypt module | 02:57 |
| lstarnes | AOC: are you using password authentication for ssh, or have you set it to only allow public key authentication? | 02:57 |
| dem0buntu | i think is called non-free-codecs | 02:57 |
| jst | I have the following line added to /etc/crontab, and restarted the cron service: */5 * * * * /usr/local/bin/mythrename.pl ... It is not renaming my recordings, but when I run the script manually it does. Any ideas? | 02:57 |
| losha | rick__: nasty in the sense that it takes *hours* to build and it won't use pre-installed libs... | 02:57 |
| AOC | Lstarnes, i have both | 02:57 |
| MikeChelen | Phuzion: there are a bunch, for example try "X Sensors" from the software center | 02:57 |
| rick__ | losha in that case i'll let it compile overnight | 02:58 |
| lstarnes | AOC: disable password authentication | 02:58 |
| AOC | lstarnes, probably better just to disable passwd auth | 02:58 |
| AOC | yeah | 02:58 |
| lstarnes | AOC: or lock root | 02:58 |
| Phuzion | ok... I'll look into that? | 02:58 |
| dem0buntu | rick, the media is online? | 02:58 |
| lstarnes | AOC: I always use passwd -l root | 02:58 |
| jrib | jst: how did you edit that file? Did you add a final newline? | 02:58 |
| rick__ | dem0buntu - no, it's on my harddrive | 02:58 |
| redonk | AOC: just download backtrack 4, load up some rainbow files mount your file system and crack the password he set then login with out internet hooked up to the system and restore the password you want to the account | 02:58 |
| AOC | lstarnes, I want to decrypt the /etc/passwd file | 02:58 |
| === djuggler_ is now known as djuggler | ||
| lstarnes | AOC: that cannot be done | 02:58 |
| rick__ | can't use an online converter | 02:58 |
| AOC | its just a hash.. | 02:58 |
| losha | blakkheim: I got used to really fast install-then-execute that debian distros provide... | 02:58 |
| lstarnes | AOC: hashes are one-way | 02:59 |
| blakkheim | losha: i run gentoo, so.. | 02:59 |
| redonk | AOC: uses backtrack 4 with some rainbow tables ;) | 02:59 |
| dem0buntu | oh, install the codecs then, and search for w32codecs or w64codecs if that is ur case | 02:59 |
| necromaster | Hi | 02:59 |
| dem0buntu | and non-free-codecs | 02:59 |
| losha | rick__: the deb stuff is ready compiled, no problem... | 02:59 |
| AOC | so your saying the the windows SAM file is not able to be decrypted too? | 02:59 |
| MikeChelen | AOC: it has to be brute-forced | 02:59 |
| dem0buntu | sudo aptitude install non-free-codecs | 02:59 |
| necromaster | still having the same freezen problem | 02:59 |
| lstarnes | AOC: it might be possible to bruteforce it | 02:59 |
| AOC | SAM is the file which stores passwds in windows | 02:59 |
| dem0buntu | sudo apt-get install w32codecs | 02:59 |
| AOC | lstarnes, yes | 02:59 |
| dem0buntu | maybe that could help you | 02:59 |
| rick__ | losha - cool | 02:59 |
| AOC | that is what I'm thinking | 02:59 |
| lstarnes | AOC: linux and windoes are different | 02:59 |
| lstarnes | *windows | 02:59 |
| dem0buntu | or search for medibuntu repos | 02:59 |
| necromaster | hello | 02:59 |
| AOC | windows hashes and linux hashes are still hashes tho | 03:00 |
| AOC | maybe jacktheripper | 03:00 |
| Phuzion | ughhhh..... my cdrom won't read the disk again... I have to go grab the external cd rom | 03:00 |
| necromaster | got the same problem since the morning | 03:00 |
| rick__ | dem0buntu - just ran that and i already have that installed. oh well. | 03:00 |
| losha | AOC: so I'm still wondering how someone broke in and changed your root password (the one you weren't even supposed to have).... | 03:00 |
| necromaster | i made a clean install | 03:00 |
| redonk | AOC: im going to beat you with a retarted stick, i gave u help run with it or not | 03:00 |
| dem0buntu | mmhh what u want to transform? | 03:01 |
| AOC | losha, you can't login via root on ssh | 03:01 |
| AOC | but maybe Apache vunerability? | 03:01 |
| rick__ | avi to mp4, let me see how this handbrake program works first that losha reccomended | 03:01 |
| redonk | losha, there are alot of 0day exploits out right now | 03:01 |
| redonk | losha; expecially for apache and the linux kernel | 03:02 |
| redonk | ;p | 03:02 |
| dem0buntu | handbrake is good | 03:02 |
| Phuzion | mikechelen LoL my xsensors window is blank... does that sound right? | 03:02 |
| memememe | hello | 03:02 |
| losha | redonk: apache's definitely a weak spot.... | 03:02 |
| mazda01 | keep getting failed to create initrd image because there's no file located at /etc/modprobe.d/oss-compat.conf file | 03:02 |
| redonk | losha: the kernel is also | 03:02 |
| redonk | right now that is | 03:02 |
| MikeChelen | Phuzion: lol not really, maybe you have to install lm-sensors as well? | 03:03 |
| mazda01 | i have upgraded from 8.04 to 9.04 and maybe that's why? so I can't install kernel images past 2.6.28-15-generic. it fails everytime | 03:03 |
| losha | redonk: yes, but they have to get to the kernel first, which shouldn't be so easy if your system's tight... | 03:03 |
| Phuzion | mikechelen it claims it's already installed | 03:03 |
| redonk | losha: heh what are u talking about lol any port thats accessiable remotely has access to the kernel | 03:04 |
| * redonk beats losha | 03:04 | |
| mazda01 | i looked for the /etc/modprobe.d/oss-compat.conf but it's a broken symlink. it's looking the target link is "/lib/oss-compat/linux" | 03:04 |
| usser | redonk, eh? what? thats a ridiculous claim | 03:05 |
| rick__ | okay handbrake seems to be working. thank you everyone | 03:05 |
| airtonix | Phuzion, MikeChelen I think hardware sensors need a bit more tldr thatn just apt-get install | 03:05 |
| losha | redonk: well personally, I only leave ssh open and require keys, but if you run apache, that's a whole new ballgame.... | 03:05 |
| gbear | DBus error org.gtk.Private.RemoteVolumeMonitor.NotFound: The given volume was not found | 03:05 |
| gbear | I'm reaching the point where I start making human sacrifice to the computer gods | 03:06 |
| mac9416 | Hello, will I gain any performance by formatting a flash drive as ext4? What are the downsides? | 03:06 |
| Phuzion | airtonix tldr? | 03:06 |
| losha | gbear: if I thought that would work reliably, we'd all be doing it.... | 03:06 |
| Untouchab1e | ok, I just cant get cron to work under Ubuntu | 03:06 |
| airtonix | Phuzion, MikeChelen sorry i mean tlc : tender loving care | 03:06 |
| Untouchab1e | ive added a script that works fine from the commandline, but it just wont run through the cron | 03:06 |
| Untouchab1e | nothing happens | 03:06 |
| gbear | anyone able to help me fix a problem with my /boot... when I boot grub gives an "error: unrecognized filesystem" and fails to "grub rescue>" to which the only friggen command which exists seems to be ls | 03:07 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, pastebin the crontab line you're using | 03:07 |
| losha | mac9416: more downs that ups: ext4 is slightly faster, but lots of 3rd party tools don't work with it, so it's murder for troubleshooting.... | 03:07 |
| redonk | losha: if any port is forwarded from the firewall to the system that has a vulnerable kernel that has an open port no matter if its apache ftp ntp ssh telnet smtp or what ever, then they can send packets that the kernel will "read" which can cause the kernel to be exploited | 03:07 |
| Phuzion | airtonix I think my computer is just fried in general? everything seemed to have been running fine before | 03:07 |
| airtonix | Phuzion, MikeChelen you were both talking about lm-sensors : does this help ->> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto | 03:07 |
| mac9416 | losha, what kind of tools? | 03:07 |
| losha | redonk: got a citation for that? | 03:07 |
| usser | redonk, thats just load of bollocks man | 03:08 |
| usser | redonk, you gotta stop saying stuff like that | 03:08 |
| rick__ | here's another question, how do i switch the default auto open program from banshee to gtkpod when I plug in my ipod to my laptop? | 03:08 |
| airtonix | rick__, i suspect this option is in the gconf | 03:08 |
| gbear | anyone? | 03:08 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: | 03:08 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: http://pastebin.com/m239b9198 | 03:08 |
| gbear | bueller? | 03:08 |
| losha | mac9416: oh, super grub disk, testdisk, other linuxes, 3rd party bootloader, 3rd party partitioners, etc... | 03:08 |
| gbear | bueller? | 03:08 |
| Phuzion | airtonix I think mike is gone? I'll look into this though? maybe if I can get it to install... then I'll see if it solves my problem | 03:08 |
| usser | redonk, kernel has nothing to do with open ports, software that listens on the port can has a vulnerability and can be exploited, kernel vulnerabilities is something else entirely | 03:09 |
| rick__ | airtonix, what is gconf??? | 03:09 |
| airtonix | Phuzion, it's something i need to do too, but not high in my list of priorities | 03:09 |
| mac9416 | losha, OK, I see what you're saying. Should I go with FAT32 or NTFS then? | 03:09 |
| StaticShock | how can i tell gnome-do to run a program with sudo | 03:09 |
| opticon | in log files for ubuntu where can you find more details about kernal panics during startup? | 03:09 |
| airtonix | rick__, press alt+f2 : then type : gconf-editor | 03:09 |
| xae8koo | Hello | 03:09 |
| rick__ | staticshock - use gksu command | 03:09 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, ok, pastebin the script itself, are you sure its executable | 03:09 |
| airtonix | rick__, it is similar in function to the windows registry | 03:09 |
| Untouchab1e | the script runs fine from the terminal | 03:10 |
| Phuzion | airtonix I hear you... I'm just trying to get my system running smoothly... this is the last bit of problems I've been working on | 03:10 |
| xae8koo | I want to integrate facebookchat with my gnome desktop, any easy solution? | 03:10 |
| losha | mac9416: my first choice would be ext3. Stable as a rock, and even windows can read it if it has to... | 03:10 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: http://pastebin.com/mbb53871 | 03:10 |
| === bensinister is now known as bendsinister | ||
| Nytek_ | xae8koo, use pidgin plugin or digsb | 03:10 |
| xae8koo | losha: Windows can read ext3? | 03:10 |
| StaticShock | rick__: thanks | 03:10 |
| airtonix | rick__, if you follow the tree path : apps > nautilus | 03:10 |
| gbear | xae8koo: facebook-plugin with pidgin | 03:10 |
| Nytek_ | xae8koo, digsby | 03:10 |
| git__ | anyone here use netcat? | 03:10 |
| mac9416 | xae8koo, with 3rd-party tools. | 03:10 |
| xae8koo | gbear: Cant get it to work... | 03:10 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, how do you know it doesnt run from cron, make the script create a log file with timestamps, maybe it runs, just doesnt do what its supposed to | 03:10 |
| losha | xae8koo: there's an ext2 driver for windows. It's a bit temperamental, but it exists.... | 03:11 |
| xae8koo | Nytek_: Apt-gettable? | 03:11 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: I added an "echo done" at the end | 03:11 |
| Nytek_ | xae8koo, i believe, if not, google digsby | 03:11 |
| rick__ | airtonix, got that far, got any clue which value it is? | 03:11 |
| Untouchab1e | and when I run it from the terminal, it outputs "done" to the terminal as wel | 03:11 |
| mac9416 | losha, OK, thanks. If I want to have a smaller partition for handy access on any Windoze machine, would I want FAT32 or NTFS? | 03:11 |
| === ^biabia is now known as biabia | ||
| losha | mac9416: almost certainly ntfs. fat32 doesn't do unix permissions very well.... | 03:12 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, echo "done" /var/log/wireless.log, did you add this script to root's crontab? or user crontab? | 03:12 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: both | 03:12 |
| Phuzion | I give up.... this computer is just fried | 03:12 |
| mac9416 | losha, roger that. Thanks very much for the advice. | 03:12 |
| losha | redonk: I hope you're off finding me a reference for your claim..... | 03:12 |
| xae8koo | Nytek_: It tells me to leave an email, because it isnt ready for Linux yey | 03:12 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, remove it from user crontab and leave it in sudo crontab -e | 03:12 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: tried that too :/ | 03:12 |
| redonk | no actually i was helping someone in private chat | 03:12 |
| redonk | u want a proof of concept exploit for the kernel? | 03:13 |
| redonk | is that what your asking for? | 03:13 |
| movela | hi. is there a new release of jaunty? w/all or most new updates? thank you | 03:13 |
| losha | redonk: no, just a web page where I can read up on it... | 03:13 |
| movela | iso image | 03:13 |
| Mike_lifeguard | movela: well, there is Karmic now | 03:13 |
| airtonix | rick__, actually gconf-editor is not needed : open nautilus to your home folder | 03:13 |
| redonk | www.securityfocus.com www.packetstormsecurity.nl | 03:13 |
| Mike_lifeguard | movela: if you didn't want to upgrade to the newest release, then do sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 03:13 |
| movela | Mike_lifeguard: i want jaunty.. karmic cannot load on my eeepc.. | 03:13 |
| redonk | either or | 03:13 |
| rick__ | airtonix, okay..... | 03:13 |
| sebsebseb | movela: no | 03:13 |
| movela | hardy had 2 or 3 releases before | 03:14 |
| sebsebseb | movela: also the updates are only security updates | 03:14 |
| airtonix | rick__, 1) open the edit menu from the toolbar 2) preferences 3) medai tab | 03:14 |
| Zimm3r | is there a reason that ubuntu 9.04 ran fine on my machine but Xubuntu 9 10 does not even have working drivers? Sorry if this is a oblivious question I'm new to this whole Linux thing. | 03:14 |
| sebsebseb | movela: LTS is done a bit differnetly | 03:14 |
| sebsebseb | movela: jaunty is not LTS | 03:14 |
| rick__ | airtonix, found it!! thank you!!! | 03:14 |
| movela | the thing is i cannot run sudo apt-get update/upgrade b/c of network issues | 03:14 |
| xae8koo | Nytek_: It is only windows :( | 03:15 |
| movela | i cannot connect wifi or wired | 03:15 |
| Nytek_ | really? | 03:15 |
| Nytek_ | xae8koo, really? | 03:15 |
| gbear | helo | 03:15 |
| Nytek_ | xae8koo, im sorry, i saw the icon and never clicked it! | 03:15 |
| xae8koo | Nytek_: It says so :P | 03:15 |
| redonk | here is also a ubuntu warning about kernels effected: but it doesnt have the latest advisories http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-819-1 | 03:16 |
| xae8koo | Nytek_: Thats allrigth, maybe I will get it for my windows box. | 03:16 |
| Nytek_ | xae8koo, i use more windows application currently, so i cant run Linux too much :( | 03:16 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, i dont know what root command does, but the script looks a little weird, from what i understand you want to restart your network if the pings dont go through? | 03:16 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: correct | 03:16 |
| xae8koo | Nytek_: I am going all linux soon! | 03:16 |
| puff | What's a good GUI sftp client? | 03:17 |
| Nytek_ | xae8koo, good luck! try out some different WM's | 03:17 |
| redonk | losha: but my system was exploited using 2.6.31-14-generic-pae just not but 3 weeks ago, when i contacted the NSA about some credit card fraud that was happening | 03:17 |
| xae8koo | Nytek_: wm? | 03:17 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, why not try rewriting it a little http://pastebin.com/f607d92ce | 03:17 |
| Nytek_ | xae8koo, window managers | 03:17 |
| Nytek_ | xae8koo, gnome, kde, xfce, fluxbox, openbox,etc.. | 03:17 |
| losha | redonk: do you know what happened? | 03:18 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, that 192.168.0.1 should be 192.168.2.1 | 03:18 |
| xae8koo | Nytek_: I used to prefer KDE, but now, with my new laptop it is only gnome for me. I love 4 gb ram! | 03:18 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: thank you, I will give it a go.. the problem is that ubuntu disconnects from the wifi network occasionally and doesnt reconnect | 03:18 |
| mazda01 | keep getting failed to create initrd image because there's no file located at /etc/modprobe.d/oss-compat.conf file | 03:18 |
| mazda01 | i looked for the /etc/modprobe.d/oss-compat.conf but it's a broken symlink. it's looking the target link is "/lib/oss-compat/linux" | 03:18 |
| Untouchab1e | thats what I am trying to fix.. | 03:18 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: will give your version a go | 03:18 |
| redonk | losha: do i know what happened with what? | 03:18 |
| Nytek_ | xae8koo, lol, lucky. I have 2.5 and i actually havent used ubuntu directly in a while now | 03:18 |
| Nytek_ | xae8koo, i kind of miss it | 03:18 |
| AOC | redonk, i did investigation of the /etc/passwd file | 03:18 |
| losha | redonk: how was your system exploited? | 03:18 |
| redonk | losha through a crypt lib via kernel attack | 03:19 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, yea i hear you wifi sucks for me too, also instead of ifconfig up/down you should be able to run service networking restart command | 03:19 |
| redonk | crypt module built into the standard kernel | 03:19 |
| AOC | i found a backup of my old passwd file 1 week ago in the same dir | 03:19 |
| moymoy | Mike_lifeguard: nope.. it's just plain not working.. i thought i was doing it wrong too | 03:19 |
| AOC | except i never did a copy of my passwd file lol | 03:19 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: service networking restart only restarts eth0 | 03:19 |
| ae86-drifter | its a hijacked kernel attack | 03:19 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: but not eth1 | 03:19 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, hm | 03:20 |
| AOC | losha, i used diff on the 2 passwd files and found a new group added | 03:20 |
| AOC | a mail group, that the attacker added | 03:20 |
| xae8koo | Nytek_: It is pure awesomeness. I get my text directly on screen, and I can reply. If I get fb chat working I will be completly satisfied. | 03:20 |
| losha | redonk: so what do I need to look at so I can evaluate my (and other people's) risk? | 03:21 |
| mazda01 | what the heck! my ubuntu machine can't access the share list of my windows 7 machine | 03:21 |
| mazda01 | anyone help please? | 03:21 |
| lazydragoon | i got a problem i try to do a audio chat in amsn but i install farsight2 and still tell me its not install someone got a answer ? | 03:22 |
| mazda01 | smbtree fails and nautilus fails to retrieve share list. i have enabled sharing on win 7 for the public folders as well as the Users/Daniel/MyVideos folder but nothing on ubuntu side | 03:22 |
| mine | when update ,where are the deb package downloaded | 03:23 |
| redonk | losha: i ended up taking the latest kernel from kernel.org and compiling it with out the encrypted file system module | 03:23 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: your script is running at least.. I made it write out some stuff to a txt file at the end, and it does | 03:23 |
| david | hi | 03:24 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, through cron? | 03:24 |
| === david is now known as Guest37361 | ||
| usser | Untouchab1e, through the root crontab right? | 03:24 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, cause mine wouldnt work on user's crontab | 03:24 |
| mazda01 | brb | 03:24 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, and it actually does nothing if pings go through. | 03:25 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, try putting an else statement, with echo "internet is working" > /var/log/wireless.log | 03:25 |
| xae8koo | Empathy says network error every time I try to connect to fb connect! | 03:25 |

| opticon | from grub when i choose to boot Linux version 2.6.31-16-generic a few seconds later get kernal panic not syncing vfs something about it cant mount root | 03:25 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: I dont know if it actually works yet, I just know it runs | 03:25 |
| opticon | when i choose Linux version 2.6.31-14-generic system boots up | 03:26 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: going to test it now.. hold on | 03:26 |
| opticon | i only got this after i run the updates that where pushed out | 03:27 |
| opticon | and i installed ubuntu 9.10 with wubi | 03:28 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: dont think the script works :/ | 03:28 |
| losha | Untouchab1e: the script looks ok. Personally I'd wrap it in a while loop and add a sleep 5 at the bottom. It'll have to be run as root of course.... | 03:28 |
| cheeko | guys i installed ubuntu 8.10 it seems to work fine | 03:28 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, cool, modify it just a bit, here something like that http://pastebin.com/f3c15fca5 | 03:28 |
| LizardK|ng | my state is going to be legalizing medical marijuana | 03:29 |
| cheeko | but the later releases dont seem to work | 03:29 |
| LizardK|ng | :D | 03:29 |
| ZombieWill | weird question but, anyway to set ubuntu to run in low graphics mode permanently? | 03:29 |
| redonk | losha, doesnt mean that the hole isnt their | 03:29 |
| ae86-drifter | ZombieWill, apt-get remove nvidia* | 03:29 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, see what gets outputted to /var/log/wireless.log when its run | 03:29 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: thanks.. Il give it a go, and it has to be on sudo crontab.. | 03:29 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, yes, otherwise it just wont work | 03:30 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: what if its on both? | 03:30 |
| Untouchab1e | both user and root? | 03:30 |
| Untouchab1e | I think that is what it was now | 03:30 |
| xzachtmx | I have been having problems with gdm 2.28 in ubuntu 9.10 (gnome stopped booting for some reason) so I downgraded to 2.20 but now the cursor dosent even show!!! how can I fix this or at least get 2.28 again and go from there | 03:30 |
| losha | Untouchab1e: a regular user doesn't have permission to run ifconfig up/down, so that part just won't have any effect for a user... | 03:31 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, user's crontab is just going to fail, since it doesnt have permissions to do ifconfig | 03:31 |
| ZombieWill | ae86: thanks | 03:31 |
| opticon | xzachtmx you install ubuntu with wubi? | 03:31 |
| xzachtmx | no just from DVD | 03:31 |
| biabia | how do i upgrade from 8.10 to 9.10 | 03:31 |
| LizardK|ng | wubi is a great way to dualboot | 03:32 |
| usser | biabia, you gotta go through 9.04 | 03:32 |
| ae86-drifter | LizardK|ng, i strongly disagree | 03:32 |
| biabia | usser hmm how do i do that | 03:32 |
| losha | LizardK|ng: actually, it's an *easy* way to dual-boot, but it tends to be buggy..... | 03:32 |
| opticon | it was but seems updates for kernal makes ubuntu fail to boot | 03:32 |
| usser | biabia, sudo update-manager -d i think | 03:32 |
| usser | !upgrade | 03:32 |
| ubottu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 03:32 |
| opticon | http://ubuntu-virginia.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1317397 | 03:32 |
| LizardK|ng | ae86-drifter: the disadvantages are that disk i/o is a bit slower, and you can't hibernate, but there is no chance of screwing up your windows install | 03:33 |
| opticon | thats problem ive ran into so far with wubi | 03:33 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: ok, new script up and running on the sudo crontab.. | 03:33 |
| biabia | usser: thankie | 03:33 |
| Untouchab1e | will check the log in a min | 03:33 |
| xzachtmx | I'm not dual booting gnome just stopped working | 03:33 |
| opticon | wubi is much faster than vm tho | 03:33 |
| LizardK|ng | i have wubi on a laptop and a desktop with no issues at all | 03:33 |
| ae86-drifter | LizardK|ng, if you know what your diong, you wont stuff it up, better, you wouldn't use windows | 03:33 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, alright | 03:33 |
| Untouchab1e | ok, its obviously running | 03:33 |
| Untouchab1e | since the log file is up | 03:33 |
| BitEncrypt | how do I completely remove kde wallet service | 03:33 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: I guess I should try to put down eth1 and see if it comes back up again | 03:34 |
| losha | xzachtmx: try purging and then reinstalling the latest gdm. If it still doesn't work, we can try troubleshooting it... | 03:34 |
| LizardK|ng | ae86-drifter: it's damn easy to f up creating partitions and you know it | 03:34 |
| xzachtmx | how do I do that from terminal? | 03:34 |
| laeg | how do i issue two commands on one line? i'd like something like screen -dR + gnome-terminal --window-with-profile=Irssi | 03:34 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, now that i think about ifconfig down/up doesnt have any effect on my system ie the network interface is not restarted | 03:35 |
| unop | laeg, separate them with a ; | 03:35 |
| ae86-drifter | LizardK|ng, no, its not easy, like i said, if you know what your doing | 03:35 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: :/ | 03:35 |
| losha | xzachtmx: try: sudo apt-get purge gdm; sudo apt-get install gdm | 03:35 |
| usser | laeg, or && | 03:35 |
| xzachtmx | ok Ty Lisha | 03:35 |
| LizardK|ng | losha, i had some issues on my desktop when i forgot to remove the cd before rebooting, but once it was set up, i've had no issues with wubi | 03:35 |
| itai | hi, is there a software that can help me edit a track out of an mp3 , like take the bass line out or the drums ? | 03:35 |
| xzachtmx | Losha lol | 03:35 |
| ae86-drifter | LizardK|ng, it maybe easy for a n00b to f up partition | 03:36 |
| lazydragoon | i got a problem i try to do a audio chat in amsn but i install farsight2 and still tell me its not install someone got a answer ? | 03:36 |
| usser | laeg, the difference is ; executes next command regardless && only if the previous command succeeds | 03:36 |
| ae86-drifter | but its quite straight forward | 03:36 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: I thought about something like this: http://pastebin.com/m73390495 | 03:36 |
| laeg | unop: ty | 03:36 |
| LizardK|ng | ae86-drifter: i know what i'm doing but i still prefer to not have to if that is an option | 03:36 |
| Untouchab1e | but again, it doesnt affect eth1, only eth0 | 03:36 |
| Untouchab1e | and you're right.. the current script doesnt work | 03:36 |

| BitEncrypt | how do i completely remove kde wallet | 03:37 |
| unop | laeg, the bash manpage would tell you better than google | 03:37 |
| LizardK|ng | ae86-drifter: i'm using wubi on a desktop that's acting as a file server. no performance issues | 03:37 |
| losha | xzachtmx: I was serious... | 03:37 |
| ae86-drifter | LizardK|ng, whatever dude | 03:37 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, hm although i never used it myself you can probably try NetworkManager, i think it has some commandline options to restart interfaces | 03:38 |
| LizardK|ng | rather than not use wubi, you'll get more performance by disabling compiz | 03:38 |
| xzachtmx | huh? I was saying Ty for responding | 03:38 |
| arghh2d2 | what is wubi? | 03:38 |
| ae86-drifter | LizardK|ng, ITS IS SLOWER full stop. | 03:38 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, are you using network manager at all? | 03:38 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, or is it like a server setup? | 03:38 |

| losha | itai: not really. The separate tracks no longer exist in an mp3, they're all smushed together. The best you can manage would be to filter parts of the spectrum. It's not very effective. You could try Audacity but imo, nothing beats adobe audition which is windows only... | 03:40 |
| xzachtmx | it dosent seem to remove it :s | 03:40 |
| losha | xzachtmx: which release version is this? | 03:40 |

| cheeko | BitEncrypt: u can come to #kubuntu | 03:40 |
| Untouchab1e | LizardK|ng: well, that and performance.. | 03:40 |
| BitEncrypt | thx | 03:41 |
| i_is_broke | BitEncrypt, have you checked to see if you could remove it in synaptics? under manager | 03:41 |
| ae86-drifter | LizardK|ng, if i switched to wubi i would miss my data transfer rate among many other things | 03:41 |
| itai | losha, if i find the CD version would i be able to use audacity ? is adobe audition free? | 03:41 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: any ideas? :/ | 03:41 |

| LizardK|ng | laeg: run screen, then start your application. you won;t be starting screen that way very often, as you'll usually just be reconnecting to your existing screen | 03:49 |
| faryshta | blakkheim, what is it? | 03:49 |
| blakkheim | j9xinca: depends on your needs | 03:49 |
| lazydragoon | someone know why i got this error ./configure: line 3650: /usr/lib/tkConfig.sh: No such file or directory | 03:49 |
| ae86-drifter | j9xinca, use mandriva, its much better than ubuntu | 03:49 |
| blakkheim | faryshta: mpd is a daemon for music playing, mpdscribble is an add-on to it that supports lastfm | 03:49 |

| coreyman | or username | 03:50 |
| dem0buntu | when is new debian comming out? | 03:50 |
| ae86-drifter | fbdystang, install it | 03:50 |
| LizardK|ng | j9xinca: use slackware! | 03:50 |
| arghh2d2 | ae86-drifter: does mandriva use a rolling release? | 03:50 |
| xzachtmx | how would I move it losha? because it isn't removing | 03:50 |
| usser | coreyman, you can use fail2ban | 03:50 |
| losha | itai: I've tried a similar thing trying to emphasize voice again a background of music to improve comprehensibility. It really doesn't work nearly as well as you'd suppose... | 03:50 |

| j9xinca | is slackware use Gnome or KDE? | 03:50 |
| dem0buntu | kde | 03:51 |
| ae86-drifter | arghh2d2, mandriva DOES have constant update, however they still maintain a half yearly version release | 03:51 |
| dem0buntu | but there is a gslackware | 03:51 |
| fbdystang | ae86-drifter: I am used to gnome, how do I install a printer(maybe driver) from the command line? | 03:51 |
| usser | dem0buntu, debian will be released when its ready | 03:51 |
| coreyman | usser do you have a link to documentation on that | 03:51 |
| j9xinca | im looking to get more into security penetration and more programming. I tried out Backtrack, i like the packages that came preinstalled but it has no community at least that shows, and isnt very supportive | 03:51 |
| maco | coreyman: debian releases when they run out of release critical bugs, and no sooner | 03:51 |
| arghh2d2 | ae86-drifter: so what about pclinuxos? is pclos to mandriva what ubuntu is to debian? | 03:51 |
| usser | coreyman, this page looks good http://debianclusters.cs.uni.edu/index.php/Fail2Ban:_Preventing_Brute_Force_SSH | 03:52 |
| losha | xzachtmx: well, depending on how adventurous you want to get, you could edit /var/lib/dpkg/status and remove the paragraph for gdm. Then dpkg will forget all about it, and you can reinstall. Make a copy of the file before you edit it... | 03:52 |
| coreyman | maco i think that was directed to another person | 03:52 |
| Theshark | j9xinca have you worked with linksys routers with that? | 03:52 |

| brady | !! ahh | 03:53 |
| arghh2d2 | not that ubuntu is teaching how to hack, but they definitely hold newbies hands | 03:53 |
| maco | ae86-drifter: mandriva *IS* mandrake. renamed. | 03:53 |
| blakkheim | brady: aptitude install firefox | 03:53 |
| ae86-drifter | which is based on RED HAT | 03:54 |
| usser | blakkheim, thats will give a 32 bit browser | 03:54 |
| brady | what does that mean "aptitude" | 03:54 |
| brady | just started linux yesterday | 03:54 |
| arghh2d2 | ae86-drifter: ok, and pclos is based on mandriva, amiright? | 03:54 |
| blakkheim | usser: not if he's on 64bit ubuntu | 03:54 |
| usser | blakkheim, or wait nvm it wont | 03:54 |

| blakkheim | j9xinca: if you want to learn the most, gentoo or linux from scratch | 03:55 |
| LizardK|ng | j9xinca: slackware | 03:55 |
| usser | fbdystang, you gotta install cups, and do a little configuration of cups since by default you can only access cups from localhost:631 in your browser, you gotta tell it to accept connections from other computers too | 03:55 |
| ae86-drifter | arghh2d2, i dont know much about PClos, i tend to stay away | 03:55 |
| guero | anyone ever gotten ssl cert to reflect your host name? | 03:55 |
| coreyman | j9xinca you dont need linux for that though. | 03:55 |

| losha | itai: as you like, but as I say, I have always been fairly disappointed with the results of editing audio.... | 03:56 |
| HaskellLove | i_is_broke man there is nothing it closed, i have two workspaces, nothing in both | 03:56 |

| Newbie-Widget | anyone here have experience install ubuntu from multiple methods ?? | 03:56 |
| arghh2d2 | j9xinca: slackware is the purist unix like do it yourself distro. | 03:56 |
| itai | losha , in that case , i might just give up :-) ..... | 03:56 |
| j9xinca | but i hate windows. lol ive always used ubuntu, and before i used to use Fedora. I just want to go into a new approach now, less point click interface, more typing | 03:56 |
| maco | arghh2d2: core linux | 03:56 |
| Newbie-Widget | i need some assistance | 03:56 |
| usser | fbdystang, sudo nano /etc/cups/cupsd.conf | 03:56 |
| maco | arghh2d2: its more DIY than even LFS | 03:57 |
| losha | itai: tell me again what you want to do. Maybe there's another solution... | 03:57 |
| LizardK|ng | laeg: i answered you; did you read it? | 03:57 |
| laeg | usser: you mean that it's screen? i know what i'm asking is possible because i used to do it before reinstallation, i just don't know the command | 03:57 |
| laeg | LizardK|ng: yes, didn't you read my reply? | 03:57 |
| usser | fbdystang, change listen localhost:631 to ip:631 | 03:57 |
| LizardK|ng | laeg: i think you replied when my internet connection was down | 03:57 |
| usser | fbdystang, where ip is the ip of your laptop or any other computer on the network that has a web browser | 03:57 |
| laeg | LizardK|ng: i will be starting it that way very often, whenever i boot my computer up so - that when when i'm not here i can ssh into the same irssi session | 03:57 |
| usser | fbdystang, once thats done sudo service cups restart | 03:57 |
| j9xinca | slackware and gentoo both popped up on the lists for linuxes that fit me, is it true slack takes days to config/install? | 03:57 |
| arghh2d2 | maco: ok, yeah, i'm just talking out my ass but making suggestions | 03:58 |
| laeg | LizardK|ng: also, so when i come home from work i can resume an irssi session i started on my home box remotely | 03:58 |
| blakkheim | j9xinca: no, slackware is very easy to install | 03:58 |
| usser | fbdystang, after that open a browser on another machine and point it to ip_of_your_server:631 | 03:58 |
| arghh2d2 | j9xinca: no thats gentoo | 03:58 |
| Newbie-Widget | i'm following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromWindows but have a few questions | 03:58 |
| j9xinca | gui installer, or verbose mode? | 03:58 |
| itai | losha- specifically i want to take a sax track and leave just the rhythm and bass line | 03:58 |
| LizardK|ng | laeg: why not just leave your computer on all the time? | 03:58 |
| LizardK|ng | like most people do | 03:58 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: dont think it works :( | 03:58 |
| itai | losha, i mean take the sax out, leave drums and bass | 03:58 |
| fbdystang | usser: ok, let me try these steps and get back, I appreciate the help :) | 03:58 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, ok one more thing i can think of, reinsert module for your wireless card | 03:59 |
| losha | j9xinca: slackware and/or gentoo aren't good distros for a beginner. Ubuntu is good, Mint is even better. What are your requirements? | 03:59 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, ie for me it would be modprobe -r iwl3945 && modprobe iwl3945 | 03:59 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, but that depends on what kind of wifi card you have | 03:59 |
| Untouchab1e | ok, il do a lspci and find out I guess? | 03:59 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, yep | 04:00 |
| arghh2d2 | losha: he wants to be a "white hat hacker" | 04:00 |
| blakkheim | lol | 04:00 |
| Untouchab1e | Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG [Calexico2] Network Connection (rev 05) | 04:00 |
| brady | man, is it normal to have so many uninstalled packages? | 04:00 |
| guero | I have a ubuntu server with apache2 + SSL anyone know how to get the ssl cert to reflect the host name | 04:00 |
| losha | itai: do a search for audio plugins and see what's available. Windows has the best audio editing gear (just my opinion) but it costs nothing to experiment with audacity, so why not start there? | 04:00 |
| hadeees | is there anyway to browse a repo like http://apt.boxee.tv to get the links to directly download files in it? | 04:01 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, its probably iwl something too, or ipw | 04:01 |
| LizardK|ng | laeg: there are probably commands you can add to .screenrc so it runs them automatically every time you start screen | 04:01 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, run lsmod | grep iwl | 04:01 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: nothing | 04:01 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, lsmod | grep ipw if previous doesnt return anything | 04:01 |
| j9xinca | I want to run a linux that doesnt have a package management system. I know that sounds hella dumb, but i enjoy compiling my programs via command line. Does slackware run like this? or does it use a packagin systeM? | 04:01 |
| Untouchab1e | that second one returned a few things | 04:01 |
| Untouchab1e | ipw2200 | 04:01 |
| usser | j9xinca, gentoo or freeBSD | 04:01 |
| usser | j9xinca, they both make compiling software easy | 04:02 |
| arghh2d2 | j9xinca: best bet would be to just run backtrack and figure those programs out one at a time. a "white hat" community isnt going to be any easier to find than a black hat community | 04:02 |
| LizardK|ng | j9xinca: you could do that with ubuntu; no one is forcing you to use the package manager | 04:02 |
| losha | j9xinca: everything you do in a ubuntu gui can be done on the command line. No need to change distros. but feel free to do so if you want.... | 04:02 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, yep so modprobe -r ipw2200 and next line modprobe ipw2200 | 04:02 |
| Newbie-Widget | I have a Laptop tope, 1) can't boot from USB, 2) can boot from CD but wont read data 3) dont have floppy. i was thinking if it were possible to copy the install files needed to Laptop hDD, then put hDD back into laptop and do installation that way | 04:02 |
| arghh2d2 | j9xinca: slackware uses a package manager but has no dependency checking | 04:02 |
| Newbie-Widget | just a | 04:02 |
| laeg | LizardK|ng: i don't want it run everytime, just the time that i use the command which is a launcher in my applications menu | 04:02 |
| Newbie-Widget | ignoe the "tope" part.. dunno wat that is =p | 04:02 |
| LizardK|ng | slackware's packages used to be tarballs. are they still? | 04:03 |
| redonk | j9xinca: go with gentoo, thats your best bet for what i think your looking for | 04:03 |
| usser | Newbie-Widget, why not just install to that hdd on another computer and pop it back into lappy | 04:03 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: somehting like this? http://pastebin.com/d72118f71 | 04:03 |
| j9xinca | about half of the packages i get i try to command line install on ubuntu and it fails, idk if im just not using specific args or what. So im getting the vibe gentoo or slackware would be best for what im looking for | 04:03 |
| LizardK|ng | i used to compile everything in slackware on a 86. X took days | 04:03 |
| j9xinca | thanks you all | 04:03 |
| LizardK|ng | err 486 | 04:03 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, dont have to restart network-manager if you're going to be messing with modules | 04:03 |
| Newbie-Widget | usser: I did that once, but some hardware didnt work. someone said when it was installed, it installed with the PC hardware and didnt install laptop hardware | 04:03 |
| losha | j9xinca: you can fetch the source to almost any ubuntu application and compile and install it. Actually, you might want to read (and maybe execute) linux from scratch. Their docs are amazing.. | 04:03 |
| brady_ | what are some good tips for someone who just installed ubuntu x64? | 04:03 |
| Newbie-Widget | especially the Touchpad | 04:03 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: thought I would just be on the safe side >.< | 04:03 |
| Untouchab1e | but if it should work without it, then I guess its not neccesary | 04:04 |
| blakkheim | brady_: what kind of tips? | 04:04 |
| usser | Newbie-Widget, thats strange ubuntu doesnt do install-time hardware detection like windows, all hardware is detected on each startup | 04:04 |
| LizardK|ng | actually, i think i gave up trying to compile X and used binaries | 04:04 |
| j9xinca | linuxfromscratch, that distro is just a minimal package, where you get to code and pick your apps out then bundle right? | 04:04 |
| brady_ | I want to unlock compatibility problems | 04:04 |
| blakkheim | brady_: such as? | 04:04 |
| Newbie-Widget | usser: hmm.. ic.. i might give it another shot then just incase i did something wronge during install | 04:05 |
| brady_ | exe install | 04:05 |
| redonk | j9xinca: gentoo is basically linux from scratch go read up on gentoo | 04:05 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: testing it now.. thanks so much | 04:05 |
| blakkheim | brady_: i have answered your question 2 times today, why do you keep asking? | 04:05 |
| brady_ | bc it hasnt worked | 04:05 |
| brady_ | why do you keep blowing me off | 04:05 |
| brady_ | ? | 04:05 |
| j9xinca | ty i will | 04:05 |
| blakkheim | brady_: if it does not work in wine, your ONLY options are a virtual machine or using windows natively. | 04:06 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: can a problem be that to test it, I do a sudo ifconfig eth1 down? | 04:06 |
| usser | Newbie-Widget, i mean i once did installation via dd since i didnt have any cds to burn, installed into virtualbox dd'ed the virtual machine harddrive to my samba server, booted with gparted cd on a real machine and dd'ed that image to real hardware | 04:06 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, no, it shouldnt | 04:06 |
| losha | j9xinca: they basically compile and configure virtually the entire distro from scratch. It costs nothing (except time) to browse the docs and see if that's what you want... | 04:06 |
| redonk | brady: if your having a problem with wine... see what error it toss's when running it from commandline | 04:06 |
| brady_ | Linux is all about writing new solutions and inventing new ways, right? | 04:06 |
| usser | Untouchab1e, anything that runs from root's crontab has root permissions, no need for sudo | 04:06 |
| fbdystang | usser: OK I tried this and can get an "it works" message from ubuntu on servers IP, but when I add ":631" it can't establish the connection to server :( | 04:07 |
| ae86-drifter | could someone share with me some good programming repositories | 04:07 |
| redonk | $wine ~/.wine/c:\Program Files\ blah\blah.exe | 04:07 |
| redonk | see if you can correct the errors | 04:07 |
| redonk | :) | 04:07 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: yeah I know, but when I put the eth1 down, I am logged in as a regular user | 04:07 |
| GodfatherofEire1 | Is there any command line way to scale the CPU freq? | 04:07 |
| Untouchab1e | usser: baah, still doesnt work :S | 04:07 |
| Untouchab1e | the script runs, as I see entries in the log file.. | 04:07 |
| LizardK|ng | usser: you lost my with your dd/vm magic :D | 04:07 |
| LizardK|ng | me | 04:07 |
| Newbie-Widget | usser:... no idea what you just said lol .. seems difficult for my mind :p .. might try the install again :) | 04:07 |
| bastidrazor | GodfatherofEire1: cpufreq-utils is the package you need, i think | 04:08 |

| leaf-sheep | I would like to add a group for a user to read/write a folder in my folder. What is the correct way to do this? | 04:08 |

| fretster | anyone in here running pidgin 2.6.4 in karmic? | 04:08 |
| brady_ | can one boot OS X 10.5.4 retail dvd using linux bootloader? | 04:08 |
| GodfatherofEire1 | bastidrazor, never mind | 04:09 |
| losha | brady_: that's just the PR glossy. Sometimes linux is about getting something/anything working at all. Windows apps are particularly problematic. Sorry, that's just how it is... | 04:09 |
| fretster | if anyone is running it karmic, can u let me know what the ppa. list location is? | 04:09 |

| meedo | Hello. I have just installed ubuntu on my HP laptop, and was wondering why web pages take so long to load? there is no connection error, and it was not doing that when I had older ubuntu (9.04), but now it's doing that with 9.10. I tried to go through and update all the drivers but it is still doing the same thing, pages just take forever to load for no reason | 04:20 |
| LizardK|ng | laeg: i am telling you how your application will get executed within the screen you create as opposed to in a new terminal. if it's not what you want to do, you need to redefine what you want do to | 04:20 |
| losha | webbb82: sorry, I can't help, I don't use expo... | 04:21 |

| fbdystang | usser: OK I changed it, however inputting :631 at end still doesn't work in browser. I can't pastebin it because the server doesn't have gnome and I am on different computer :( | 04:23 |
| laeg | LizardK|ng: i want it created in the screen, not a new terminal. | 04:23 |
| git__ | how long does a USB flash drive last? | 04:23 |
| usser | fbdystang, did you change your Listen line back to Listen localhost:631 ? | 04:23 |
| usser | fbdystang, did you restart cups after all the changes that we made? | 04:24 |
| git__ | i want to know when to replace my 512MB drive | 04:24 |
| usser | fbdystang, you can pastebin from command line using pastebinit program | 04:24 |
| usser | !info pastebinit | fbdystang | 04:24 |
| ubottu | fbdystang: pastebinit (source: pastebinit): command-line pastebin client. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.11.2-1 (karmic), package size 22 kB, installed size 344 kB | 04:24 |

| git__ | after the writes are done, it becomes read-only | 04:25 |
| git__ | i'm not worry about it being read-only | 04:25 |
| git__ | i worry more about the device not working | 04:25 |
| fbdystang | usser: no let me restart and read that pastebin doc | 04:25 |
| i_is_broke | meedo, what browser are you using? | 04:25 |
| losha | git__: dunno, try ##hardware ? | 04:25 |

| arghh2d2 | meedo: sometimes the lag is caused by your isp | 04:26 |
| losha | !medibuntu | tvaughn | 04:26 |
| ubottu | tvaughn: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 04:26 |
| losha | tvaughn: I think you want the medibuntu stuff installed, then use vlc | 04:26 |
| arghh2d2 | medibuntu cant be included in ubuntu for idealistic reasons i thought, not legal reasons | 04:27 |
| git__ | "While everything has a measured MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures), a flash drive, if not destroyed has an MTBF of about 100,000 years. An HD has an MTBF of about 50,000 Hours. So the flash drive will last longer than the HD." | 04:27 |
| meedo | i understand but in this case it is not because I have tried to use the same connection on my same pc but booting into windows and it works just fine | 04:27 |
| fbdystang | usser: so I assume sudo apt-get install pastebinit? | 04:27 |
| LizardK|ng | laelaeg, and i am telling you how to create it in the screen, not ion a terminal | 04:28 |
| usser | fbdystang, yep | 04:28 |
| meedo | also tried a different computer and that works fine too | 04:28 |
| LizardK|ng | whoops, just one "laeg" | 04:28 |

| losha | arghh2d2: more to the point, if they keep it pure, they can distribute it from a country where a patent holder might sue them over the technology.... | 04:31 |
| fbdystang | usser: ok i am not finding any docs on pastebinit. How do I use it? | 04:31 |
| arghh2d2 | losha: i gotcha | 04:31 |
| airtonix | fbdystang, command | pastebinit | 04:31 |
| usser | fbdystang, cat /etc/cups/cupsd.conf | pastebinit | 04:31 |
| airtonix | fbdystang, also can use this in irc : /exec -o echo "lol" | pastebinit | 04:32 |
| losha | arghh2d2: e.g. mp3 is patented and you're supposed to pay a license fee to distribute it, except that some countries don't recognise UK patents. What are you donna do, sue China? | 04:32 |
| lzrdking | roasted, quite possibly, try it :) | 04:32 |
| losha | oops: Uk -> USA | 04:32 |
| scunizi | Roasted: sortof.. there is a usb creation utility.. not sure if it shows up only after install or will also show on a live cd.. if it shows on the live cd.. then use that.. it should be in the menu someplace.. that's the easiest way.. otherwise I believe you have ot use unetbootin or similar | 04:32 |

| fbdystang | usser: OK, it doesn't work 192.168.1.105:631 | 04:37 |
| Roasted | scunizi - Im hitting "join" at the top and typing #kubuntu and nadda happens | 04:37 |
| scunizi | maco: you're right.. | 04:38 |
| losha | SidewinderX: check out https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archivemirrors. Then you'll have to tell synaptic to use a mirror instead... | 04:38 |
| SidewinderX | losha: it seems like the mirrors are just http folders, no search function... no idea how to find my package without search | 04:38 |
| === wookie is now known as veebull | ||
| scunizi | Roasted: don't hit join.. where you're typing to me now..just try .. /j #kubuntu | 04:38 |
| Roasted | scunizi - nothing happens when I type that | 04:38 |
| meedo | is anyone getting what i'm typing? | 04:39 |
| johnson_b | what you all think of fluxbox or any of you use it | 04:39 |
| scunizi | Roasted: weird.. of course.. I'm in irssi. it's one of my favorits.. but quassel has worked fine for me.. | 04:39 |
| losha | SidewinderX: I thought you can configure a mirror in synaptic, then hit the reload button, then search as usual... | 04:39 |
| _nick_ | irssi FTW! | 04:39 |
| trece8 | Hi, my windows partition has the " NTLDR is missing " error, I typed fixboot and then I can't even boot on ubuntu. How do I solve the NTLDR problem using the ubuntu live cd? | 04:39 |
| SidewinderX | losha: ah, ok, I'll give it a shot. synaptic doesn't seem to want to start for me atm :/ | 04:40 |
| laeg | LizardK|ng: you should try understanding people's questions before you refer them away from the channel or try to fob them off saying their needs are unnessary before giving an answer which is not even what they asked in the first place. | 04:40 |
| fbdystang | usser: usser U there? | 04:40 |
| Roasted | scunizi - gonna try xchat quick | 04:40 |
| losha | meedo: yes, loud and clear. I don't know the answer to your problem though... | 04:40 |
| scunizi | Roasted: k | 04:40 |
| laeg | *unnecessary | 04:40 |
| Roasted | scunizi - it appears as though I'm banned. :( | 04:40 |
| mizery | `echo hi|festival --tts` returns Linux: can't open /dev/dsp and `lsof|grep dsp` indicates pulseaudio is using it. Is there a way to use festival and send it to pulseaudio instead of /dev/dsp? | 04:40 |
| scunizi | Roasted: wonder why? | 04:40 |
| losha | SidewinderX: I wonder if it's hung trying to access the down servers? | 04:41 |
| meedo | ok what will happen if i disable ipv6 on firefox? | 04:41 |
| SidewinderX | losha: ya, idk | 04:41 |
| scunizi | Roasted: you been a bad boy over there? | 04:41 |
| Roasted | scunizi - oh, you know how it goes. anal *buntu mods, me with a mouth and the inability to step down when people are jerks, etc | 04:41 |
| Roasted | scunizi - no I know what its about | 04:41 |
| SidewinderX | losha: lettme just reboot my ubuntu... benefits of running it on a VM | 04:41 |
| Roasted | scunizi - I got banned like 2 weeks ago. I was talking to someone about kubuntu, but because it wans't about "support for kubuntu" and it was just about "kubuntu" I was told to go to an off topic channel | 04:41 |
| scunizi | Roasted: think you can do a mea culpa, bow and promise to be good? | 04:41 |
| Roasted | scunizi - one thing lead to another and I got zapped | 04:42 |
| Roasted | scunizi - I am good, I just dont like it when mods abuse power. And I let them know that. | 04:42 |
| tvaughn | i ran the commands specified on the mediabuntu page and the dvd still wont play | 04:42 |
| scunizi | Roasted: you can always talk to them in #ubuntu-ops | 04:42 |
| Roasted | scunizi - tried that. | 04:42 |
| === veebull is now known as wookie_ | ||
| quietone | How do I find out the capabilities of my cd drive, size disk it can burn, what types etc? | 04:42 |
| Roasted | scunizi - at the end of the day, theres just some people in charge who dont need to be. Some people just loooove that ban hammer. | 04:43 |
| === carlos is now known as Guest15595 | ||
| === wookie_ is now known as wookie__ | ||
| === wookie__ is now known as wookie | ||
| scunizi | Roasted: not sure how long a ban lasts.. but there should be a minimum time period or at least an appeals process. | 04:43 |
| IdleOne | Roasted: you will probably be warned in here also about offtopic | 04:43 |
| === wookie is now known as veebull_ | ||
| Roasted | idleone - wouldnt be anything new. | 04:44 |
| === veebull_ is now known as veebull__ | ||
| Roasted | scunizi - yeah, I dont know. Its been like 2 weeks. *shrug* | 04:44 |
| FedNewbie | evening all, what is the command line to configure my nvidia card | 04:44 |
| scunizi | IdleOne: should this be an offtopic channel conversation? | 04:44 |
| achandra | hey guys trying to help out a friend here...on 9.10 we installed the prop. drivers for ati -- hd 4850..and both times renedered X broken. Whats the work around if there is one to get proper acceleration on these cards? | 04:44 |
| IdleOne | scunizi: yes | 04:44 |
| Roasted | scunizi - Kinda bummed to see quassel doesnt say Im banned, but xchat does | 04:44 |
| Roasted | idleone - are you a mod too? | 04:44 |
| === veebull__ is now known as veebull | ||
| scunizi | IdleOne: k..... Roasted move to #ubuntu-offtopic | 04:44 |
| IdleOne | Roasted: I'm not | 04:44 |
| Roasted | scunizi - see thats what pisses me off | 04:45 |
| SidewinderX | gah | 04:45 |
| Roasted | scunizi - is when people who arent mods tell me I need to go to another channel | 04:45 |
| bastidrazor | quietone: in a terminal type: sudo lshw -c disk | 04:45 |
| SidewinderX | losha: just rebooted, now nothing will start when I try (like synaptic) | 04:45 |
| SidewinderX | any ideas? | 04:45 |
| achandra | anybody got the info with regards to getting hardware acceleration on the radeon hd 4850? | 04:46 |
| Roasted | scunizi - but hey, kindergarten ruleset here. Guess I'll be quiet and behave. | 04:46 |
| IdleOne | Roasted: I have been in this channel long enough to know what is on/off topic and how the ops will act when pushed. | 04:46 |
| scunizi | Roasted: there is a CoC.. the channels are moderated to maintain them. #ubuntu-offtopic is for the "rest of the stuff".. mod or not it's driven by the CoC | 04:46 |
| losha | SidewinderX: I just discovered http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com | 04:46 |
| scunizi | Roasted: bbl | 04:46 |
| Roasted | idleone - I've also been in this channel long enough to know that even when I'm on topic I can still be on topic | 04:46 |
| scott_ino2 | achandra, try here http://www.x.org/wiki/radeon or try the radeonhd irc | 04:46 |
| Roasted | idleone - got a question about samba? ask in samba. Question about wireless? ask in networking. All things Ive heard from ops, yet I'm still using *buntu as my OS - hence why I ask here. | 04:47 |
| bastidrazor | losha: interstingly useful site | 04:47 |
| === veebull is now known as wookie_ | ||
| Roasted | idleone - all things I've heard from ops. *sigh* | 04:47 |
| losha | bastidrazor: so obvious when you think of it, brilliant... | 04:47 |
| webbb82 | ok i need some help i was running ubuntu forever but switched to opensuse to see what its like, but when i went to install ubuntu again when i load it to usb then re boot i cant see my hdd form the boot menu | 04:47 |
| SidewinderX | losha: seems it's down for everyone | 04:47 |
| Roasted | lizardking - you still here? | 04:47 |
| === wookie_ is now known as wookie__ | ||
| achandra | scott_ino2, either one of those is not necessarily ubuntu specific though..and likely NOT going to help | 04:47 |
| webbb82 | before i just hit f12 and picked boot from usb but now it cant pick boot from usb | 04:48 |
| workstation | wow, can someone help me with deleting a file!? I am root, and cant chown or chmod the file whatsoever, do Not have permission to do anything? What is going on? | 04:48 |
| Dacvak | I really need some help installing Ubuntu on my netbook. I've been trying for the past 12 hours with no avail and no one here has been able (willing) to help me out. Can I get someone here who could offer some advice? | 04:48 |
| IdleOne | Roasted: support related questions are on topic here. Sometimes there are certain question which just can't be answered so people get referred to more specific channels | 04:48 |
| losha | SidewinderX: so is it just synaptic that won't start for you? You said "nothing" will start... | 04:48 |
| SidewinderX | losha: not even the file browser | 04:48 |
| === wookie__ is now known as veebull | ||
| SidewinderX | losha: rebooted again | 04:48 |
| scott_ino2 | achandra, well the instructions for enabling should work with a few minor tweaks, I'd try the radeon irc, they've been pretty helpful with me in the past | 04:48 |
| losha | workstation: what does ls -l <file> say (that's lower case L) | 04:48 |
| Roasted | idleone - simple point being. I had a question about samba on ubuntu. Ever go to samba? Nobody was in there. Yet I was told to go there. Yet samba is on ubuntu. And I'm in ubuntu. Yet my question was off topic. lol? | 04:49 |
| quietone | bastidrazor: thanks. I couldn't remember the cmd. But is doesn't show the size of disk it reads or burns. anything I can do to find that out? | 04:49 |
| workstation | losha, -r--r--r-- 1 root root 12800 2009-12-13 14:07 extlinux.sys | 04:49 |
| scott_ino2 | Roasted, sounds like they're out to get you ;) I've never had that problem even with when off-topic | 04:49 |
| losha | workstation: and also, ls -ld . | 04:49 |
| fbdystang | Anyone know how to get a ubuntu print server to install an HP printer? | 04:49 |
| FedNewbie | evening all, what is the command to configure my nvidia card | 04:49 |
| bastidrazor | quietone: uh, dvd's are 4.3GB and dual layer would be 9GB.. CD's are 800MB.. what else is there? | 04:49 |
| losha | workstation: and also, ls -ld . <---- note trailing dot | 04:50 |
| workstation | losha, exact same thing | 04:50 |
| workstation | oh | 04:50 |
| blakkheim | CD = 700mb | 04:50 |
| workstation | :) | 04:50 |
| Roasted | scott_ino2 - my problem is I dont shut up when someone tells me something ridiculous like that. Couple that with ban-happy mods and I get axed. No other problems in other channels, just in the *buntus | 04:50 |
| losha | workstation: the containing directory has to be wx by root I think | 04:50 |
| preymond | Seeing that packages.ubuntu.com is down anyone knows if the vlc version on 9.10 is 1.0 yet? | 04:50 |
| workstation | losha, drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 2009-12-13 20:40 . -r--r--r-- 1 root root 12800 2009-12-13 14:07 extlinux.sys | 04:50 |
| SidewinderX | losha: terminal will start, but that seems to be it, nothing pops up when I try and open the file broser (i.e., "Places -> Home") | 04:50 |
| workstation | ah i see | 04:50 |
| IdleOne | Roasted: in any case discussing a ban in this channel is not on topic. #ubuntu-ops is the proper place to bring it up | 04:50 |
| bastidrazor | losha: ironically, that site claims my webserver is down when it cleary isn't. | 04:50 |
| preymond | would make me upgrade if it was. | 04:50 |
| scott_ino2 | Roasted, comes with the territory, the rooms are too large to let things go I suppose, | 04:51 |
| losha | bastidrazor: I assume it makes a simple http request. Do you see a query in your site log? | 04:51 |
| Dacvak | Could someone please help me out? I have an EEE PC and I'm desperately trying to install Ubuntu on it. It's simply not working, though. I've tried almost everything, and I thought I got it this most recent installation, but it gives me an error when it boots from hard drive. | 04:51 |
| losha | workstation: did that do it? | 04:51 |
| Roasted | scott_ino2 - considering there wasnt any traffic in the kubuntu chat when I got banned at the time, except me + 1 other guy, that excuse is not valid for them to use. | 04:51 |
| scott_ino2 | Roasted, i feel for you man, nothing you can do for right now though | 04:51 |
| FedNewbie | is there network activity if in level 3? | 04:52 |
| Roasted | scott_ino2 - I hear that bro. I just hope the ban wears off sometime soon. I'd actually like to be back into that channel now that Im diving into KDE land more and more. | 04:52 |
| workstation | losha, well I chmod -wx to the directory it is contained in, but did not help to delete the file within | 04:52 |
| quietone | bastidrazor: Hmmm But can my drive burn a dual layer? Do I buy one and try it? As inexpensive as they are I can't spend any money now. | 04:52 |
| workstation | losha, I believe it was wx before, now all the permission are completely different | 04:52 |
| IdleOne | Roasted: I suggest you drop the offtopic in here if you wish to get that ban removed. | 04:52 |
| losha | Roasted: you can't really win against the ops. You can go to #ubuntu-ops and ask very nicely to have the ban lifted... | 04:53 |
| bastidrazor | quietone: google your model for its specs. | 04:53 |
| Roasted | losha - I know that one all too well | 04:53 |
| scott_ino2 | quietone, take the drive out if need be :) | 04:53 |
| Roasted | idleone - whatever | 04:53 |
| scott_ino2 | and look at it | 04:53 |
| IdleOne | Roasted: you have a poor attitude. I see why you got banned. | 04:53 |
| Dacvak | Man, isn't anyone here able to help me out? | 04:53 |
| losha | workstation: that's weird. Is there something you haven't told me about this filesystem? | 04:53 |
| quietone | bastidrazor;; of course - I do need more sleep.... | 04:53 |
| webbb82 | i need some help before when i install linunx to usb and restart i could pick boot from usb but after installing boot from usb isnt in the boot menu anymore | 04:53 |
| Dacvak | I'm having serious problems installing Ubuntu and I want to use it so badly. | 04:53 |
| Roasted | idleone - I just have a poor attitude with people who make mountains out of molehills. You're beginning to do the same. | 04:54 |
| git__ | how come SSD drives have a lot of fluctuation in price? | 04:54 |
| SidewinderX | losha: suddenly my ubuntu seems broken. Firefox will start but not get an internet connection, the file broswer won't start, my desktop is suddenly empty (even tho navigating to the desktop folder via terminal still shows my files) | 04:54 |
| FedNewbie | evening all, what is the command to configure my nvidia card | 04:54 |
| IdleOne | Roasted: twice already I have given you friendly advice about dropping the offtopic discussion and you brought it up with two other people. | 04:54 |
| scott_ino2 | git__, because there are two types, in addition to size | 04:54 |
| Roasted | Has anybody successfully installed an ACTUAL install of *buntu on a flash drive? Not just a LiveCD bootable image but an actual functional install? | 04:54 |
| Roasted | idleone - drop it already dude, I stopped caring long ago | 04:55 |
| workstation | losha, well.... its a mounted partition on a USB Drive that is formated to fat32. I used Unetbootin to install a MintLinux distro to it. But now I want to delete all the contents of the partition, which I have, except this file. | 04:55 |
| bastidrazor | losha: i do not see any thing in the logs. just me double checking to see if it had gone down. | 04:55 |
| workstation | Roasted, try Unetbootin | 04:55 |
| Roasted | workstation - is that in the repos? | 04:55 |
| losha | SidewinderX: very odd. Sounds like a filesystem problem. What version is it? | 04:55 |
| workstation | Roasted, yes it is | 04:56 |
| SidewinderX | losha: 9.10 | 04:56 |
| losha | bastidrazor: sounds like a bug on their part, actually.... | 04:56 |
| Roasted | dumb question but are kubuntu and ubuntu repos the same? | 04:56 |
| IdleOne | Roasted: yes | 04:56 |
| preymond | Dacvak: I couldn't help you, but I think you might get some attention if you get more sepcific with your errors. | 04:56 |
| mazda01 | simple as installing the oss-compat package. how'd that get removed I wonder. | 04:56 |
| sebsebseb | Roasted: yes | 04:56 |
| losha | SidewinderX: anything unusual about it? wubi, ext4, weird hardware? | 04:56 |
| not_guest | is there a verbose mode for the the installation media? | 04:56 |
| SidewinderX | losha: well, it's a virtual machine on VirtualBox | 04:56 |
| Roasted | workstation - now wait I got a little confused for a second. Does unetbootin handle putting a LIVE-CD type image on a flash drive or does it do a live workable install? | 04:57 |
| losha | SidewinderX: sounds like you get to do a reinstall.... | 04:57 |
| LizardK|ng | Roasted: did your usb install work? | 04:57 |
| bastidrazor | losha: i have a non-standard port of 9999 instead of 80.. it does say the redirect i use is up but not when i type my actual domain:9999 | 04:57 |
| SidewinderX | losha: bah, don't even joke about that | 04:57 |
| SidewinderX | oh well | 04:57 |
| SidewinderX | I think I'm going to be | 04:57 |
| felixn | could someone help me remove a package? I'm getting this error: http://pastebin.com/d241f7d48 | 04:58 |
| SidewinderX | I'll see what it does tomorrow | 04:58 |
| workstation | Roasted, it installs the linux distro to the USB flash drive. | 04:58 |
| losha | SidewinderX: Uh, I wasn't joking. Your system sounds seriously dented, for no apparent reason.... | 04:58 |
| felixn | I kind of just let it alone, but now I can't install a new package without first removing that | 04:58 |
| Roasted | lizardking - no, it backfired. I got an error, something about when copying files... the error suggested I had a problem with the integrity of the content on the CD - so I checked it for defects - no errors. Other users here are recommending I try out "UNetBootin" from the repos - working on that righ tnow. | 04:58 |
| bastidrazor | felixn: did you manually remove the file before trying to get apt-get to remove it? | 04:58 |
| felixn | nope | 04:59 |
| losha | felixn: so is /boot/System.map-2.6.27-14-generic there or not? | 04:59 |
| felixn | no there isn't | 04:59 |
| workstation | losha, any other suggestions? | 04:59 |
| felixn | is there a way to manually remove a package? | 05:00 |
| quietone | bastidrazor: thanks for the obvious. That confirms my experience. Discs ok for drive, works in Vista. Ubuntu apps are unreliable for me. | 05:00 |
| losha | workstation: since you're wiping the partition anyway, why not just reformat it....? | 05:00 |
| sosborn_ | I'm installing 9.04 on a PPC mac and I'm running into an issue, maybe someone can help. | 05:00 |
| sosborn_ | After I install the user account/password always fails | 05:00 |
| workstation | losha, yea I gess I can do that | 05:00 |
| losha | felixn: what about other 2.6.27-14-generic files in /boot. Are there any? | 05:00 |
| sosborn_ | and if I boot the live CD the 'automatic login' fails so I can't login | 05:01 |
| bastidrazor | quietone: best of luck, not everyone has a favorable experience. | 05:01 |
| LizardK|ng | i'm gonna work on not running ubuntu under wubi, see if it improves performance significantly. is there a site that details how to do the transfer? | 05:01 |
| felixn | just the latest, System.map-2.6.31-16-generic, I was trying to clean up all the old kernels by using autoremove and it blew up | 05:01 |
| bastidrazor | quietone: possibly try k3b if you're trying to burn things.. k3b will install a fair amount of packages since it pulls in some kde-base dependencies but in my opinion it is well worth the extra baggage. | 05:02 |
| losha | felixn: ok, you can edit /var/lib/dpkg/status and remove the paragraph talking about 2.6.27-14-generic. Make a copy of the file *first*. THat should make dpkg forget all about it.... | 05:02 |
| LizardK|ng | felixn: try doing "sudo touch /boot/System.map-2.6.27-14-generic" | 05:03 |
| LizardK|ng | then remocing the package again | 05:03 |
| LizardK|ng | removing | 05:04 |
| LizardK|ng | ok, too many typos, i'm going to sleep | 05:04 |
| losha | LizardK|ng: ingenious, but I bet it will simply choke on another of the files from that package which will also be missing... | 05:04 |
| LizardK|ng | losha, touch them all then :) | 05:04 |
| felixn | LizardK|ng, woo that worked, thanks | 05:04 |
| LizardK|ng | losha: i guess not :P | 05:05 |
| losha | felixn: heh, waddaya know? | 05:05 |
| leaf-sheep | Anybody here using default Ubuntu install, could you please tell me what's the command for "Users/Groups" located in Admin? | 05:05 |
| scunizi | leaf-sheep: the command? what do you mean | 05:06 |
| LizardK|ng | this is why i'm looking for help desk positions | 05:06 |
| bastidrazor | users-admin leaf-sheep | 05:06 |
| leaf-sheep | scunizi: gedit for GTK Text Edit. | 05:06 |
| felixn | dang now that I can update there's already a new kernel | 05:06 |
| dylan__ | hey | 05:06 |
| leaf-sheep | bastidrazor: Thanks. That was it. (embedded in gnome-system-tools) :) | 05:07 |
| scunizi | leaf-sheep: if you know the file then you most likely need root access.. use gksudo gedit <file> | 05:07 |
| bastidrazor | leaf-sheep: :) | 05:07 |
| scunizi | I missunderstood the question.. sorry leaf-sheep | 05:07 |
| dylan__ | im having trouble with my wired connection | 05:07 |
| leaf-sheep | scunizi: It is okay. We all do that. I'm glad you showed some characters of helping people. :) me | 05:07 |
| losha | workstation: did that work? | 05:08 |
| dylan__ | it's saying i have ip address and everything, but i have no internet | 05:08 |
| dylan__ | and i have no idea how it's letting me talk on this? | 05:08 |
| workstation | losha, yes, Thank you for the help | 05:08 |
| _nick_ | dylan restart =] lol | 05:08 |
| losha | dylan__: if you're chatting on irc from that machine you definitely have internet access. Why do you say you 'have no internet'? | 05:09 |
| _nick_ | dylan__: you have wrong proxy settings in browser? | 05:09 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | Hey i'm using 3 monitors with Xinerama without twinview, is there a way to set the primary display to be my center monitor? At the moment it's the leftmost, and I don't like that. | 05:10 |
| losha | _nick_: it's going to be something like that, isn't it? | 05:10 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | And it seems that it is always my leftmost monitor, no matter what. | 05:10 |
| _nick_ | losha: idk im not the smartest | 05:10 |
| losha | _nick_: I dunno, the proxy setting things is a smart diagnosis... | 05:11 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | No takers?... :X | 05:11 |
| zcat[1] | dylan__: offline mode? or restart the browser | 05:11 |
| quietone | bastidrazor: I tried k3b but it also didn't do the trick. it was no better than brasio/gnomebaker/xfburn | 05:11 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | :( | 05:11 |
| losha | quietone: what's the model number of the drive? | 05:11 |
| _nick_ | dylan__: edit about:config and check about network.dns.disableipv6 is set to :) | 05:12 |
| bastidrazor | quietone: what are you trying to do? | 05:12 |
| leaf-sheep | To those who use (reverse-i-search) in terminal, is there a keyboard button that will display the next used command? | 05:12 |
| quietone | losha: TSST Corp: DVD+-RW TS-L632H | 05:12 |
| quietone | bastidrazor: Burn video for dvd player. i have .iso and .vob sets. I have tried so many ways it is all confusing now. And now all my available +RW aren't recognized by ubuntu | 05:14 |
| losha | quietone: http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/storage/P141314/en/spec.htm It *is* a dual layer device. | 05:14 |
| brady_ | im in osx chat witeshark | 05:14 |
| losha | quietone: I would start by shutting down, letting it cool for a few minutes, then rebooting.... | 05:16 |
| quietone | Losha, thanks for confirming that. So, I assume it is safe to say the sw understands that. | 05:16 |
| losha | quietone: dual layer can be tricky actually, because of the layer break. Are you trying to burn dual layers? For regular dvd players, single layer dvd-r is best | 05:17 |
| quietone | Losha, really? I am surprised that heat could be such a problem | 05:17 |
| quietone | Losha, no haven't tried dual layer. But will when I can get some disks | 05:17 |
| losha | quietone: it probably isn't, but power-cycling cures more things than penicillin... | 05:17 |
| scunizi | is there a way to track the battery level on a laptop via cli? | 05:19 |
| quietone | Losha, considering I have been having this problem for over 3-4 months I am sceptical. Plus it is only spring so I am sure I have tried it when my machine is cold. | 05:20 |
| losha | quietone: just power cycle the thing and we can start debugging... | 05:21 |
| quietone | Losha: Still I will pay attention to temp and try again on a fresh boot. | 05:21 |
| tulur | I am a noob and i confused that which distro should i install , ubuntu 9.10 or fedora12 please help me | 05:21 |
| maco | tulur: not exactly an unbiased channel ;) | 05:22 |
| quietone | Losha, be back in a bit | 05:22 |
| tulur | but i am asking for suggestion | 05:22 |
| maco | tulur: i think ubuntu's installer is a bit simpler...only 7 questions | 05:22 |
| losha | tulur: I think ubuntu 9.10 is better for a beginner. Mint is also a good beginner distro. what hardware do you have? | 05:22 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | Anyone know how to force a display to be primary in some way while using Xinerama? | 05:23 |
| tulur | AMD sempron 3200, 2.5 gb ddr2 ram | 05:23 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | I'm not using Twinview, so that doesn't work :) | 05:23 |
| losha | Samual-Ubuntu: can't you just move the left monitor to the middle? | 05:23 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | No, then the movement order is incorrect and moving my mouse across would be incorrect | 05:24 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | To compensate, I would have to change the screen order | 05:24 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | Which in turn, makes the left monitor primary anyway | 05:24 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | Xinerama is a bitch btw | 05:24 |
| wildboy211 | hi, i have a problem with ubuntu... | 05:24 |
| losha | Samual-Ubuntu: agreed on all counts... | 05:24 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | I'm using it with xserver-xgl to have Compiz and all that fun stuff working with 3 monitors | 05:24 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | And well, I want my center display to be primary :X | 05:25 |
| chris_ | Hello everyone. I am trying to install onto a RAID 1. Its a fresh RAID 1 but shows there is no free space.. not sure what to do now. I have never setup a RAID befor | 05:25 |
| losha | tulur: I recommend you start with Mint http://www.linuxmint.com/, at the risk of sounding heretic... | 05:25 |
| soreau | ! raid | chris_ | 05:26 |
| ubottu | chris_: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto | 05:26 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | losha, so, no ideas then? :( | 05:26 |
| chris_ | thanks | 05:26 |
| losha | Samual-Ubuntu: sorry, I've never used twinview in my life. And I'm dreading the day I have to start... | 05:27 |
| tulur | losha what about support , do they have huge support and hardware driver option like ubuntu | 05:27 |
| tulur | ? | 05:27 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | Well I don't use Twinview | 05:27 |
| dylan__ | I cannot ping any website, but im able to talk in xchat, does anyone think they know what's wrong? | 05:27 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | Twinview simply messes up with Xinerama and 3 monitors, and requires you to use "fake xinerama" | 05:27 |

| wildboy211 | i had ubuntu installed with windows xp...and i ran this command (mount -t ntfs /dev/sda2 /mnt/windows -o "umask=022") so i can access my windows files...but now i cant reinstall ubuntu 9.1 on my system...after install and reboot, i get a partition error...how can i fix this? | 05:28 |
| losha | tulur: not as much support, on the other hand, it works straight out of the box, whereas ubuntu 9.10 and fedora 12 are notorious for sound problems (and other stuff) that's annoying for a beginner... | 05:28 |
| xae8koo | dylan__: DNS error? | 05:28 |
| dylan__ | how would i know if it's a DNS error? | 05:29 |

| losha | tulur: no reason you can't try both using the live cds and see which works better with your hardware... | 05:30 |
| wildboy211 | anyone? | 05:31 |
| wildboy211 | i had ubuntu installed with windows xp...and i ran this command (mount -t ntfs /dev/sda2 /mnt/windows -o "umask=022") so i can access my windows files...but now i cant reinstall ubuntu 9.1 on my system...after install and reboot, i get a partition error...how can i fix this? | 05:31 |
| tulur | but for absolute noob like me, mint would be good ? | 05:31 |
| chris_ | tular: what do you want out of linux? | 05:31 |
| quietone | Losha: I am ready. what would you like me to do? | 05:31 |
| losha | tulur: in my opinion, yes. Second choice would be ubuntu 8.04 | 05:31 |
| losha | quietone: first, tell me about your blank disks. What kind, what brand, what size... | 05:32 |
| tulur | ok , first i will warmup with Mint and then i will move to ubuntu but what about fedora, i heard that it is also good ? | 05:32 |

| _nick_ | gordon's vodka in plastic bottle = some good stuff =) | 06:11 |
| Guiri | Anyone familiar with libcurl? | 06:11 |
| geirha | oisin12: It means it is unable to properly detect your video card or monitor. 7.04 is no longer supported though, you should download or order 8.04 or 9.10 from www.ubuntu.com | 06:12 |
| lstarnes | xae8koo: try gstreamer0.10-dev | 06:12 |
| switch10_ | oisin12: no it has nothing to do with an old ubuntu install. try a newer disk.. Maybe 8.04 or 9.10 | 06:12 |

| mixmatch3 | Does anyone know how to recover deleted data? | 06:35 |
| switch10_ | i_is_broke: oh yea | 06:36 |
| switch10_ | i_is_broke: that would work | 06:36 |
| geirha | jtaby: find ./ -name "*.js" -exec wc -l {} + | 06:36 |
| i_is_broke | mixmatch3, i know there is one or two programs for that, but i dont remember what they are or how good they are. | 06:36 |
| i_is_broke | mixmatch3, have you asked google yet? | 06:36 |
| slim | to down load a torrent it says "not it pool yet" what does that mean?? | 06:36 |
| nastas | does anyone knows why i cant see my trash? any time i try, desktop icons disappear | 06:37 |
| switch10_ | whats that program for finding duplicate files? is it dupfinder?? | 06:37 |
| quietone | Losha: <Found DVD-RW Restricted Overwrite medium in TSSTcorp - DVD+-RW TS-L632H. Should it be overwritten?> That's new and I said yes | 06:37 |
| mixmatch3 | i_is_broke: I am not familier with much of the command line stuff google brings up. I was hoping for a gui. | 06:37 |
| jtaby | geirha: thanks | 06:37 |
| losha | jtaby: find ./ -name "*.js" -exec cat '{}'; | wc -l | 06:37 |
| i_is_broke | mixmatch3, im not sure then... | 06:37 |
| NicolasRaoul | When I log in, Gnome crashes immediately after the mouse appears, before the desktop is shown. Fresh Jaunty install. Any idea? Is there a Gnome log somewhere? | 06:38 |
| losha | quietone: then set the appropriate options in the burn image menu. I would burn at the slowest speed available (for testing) and choose verify, then let it rip... | 06:38 |
| airtonix | mixmatch3, there isn't one, but you have at least 5 options for command line approach | 06:39 |
| mixmatch3 | airtonix: lets hear it. | 06:39 |
| airtonix | !search undelete | 06:39 |
| ubottu | Found: undelete, recover | 06:39 |
| Bardology | I just noticed that /etc/apache2/httpd.conf is empty... is that normal for a new install? | 06:40 |
| mixmatch3 | airtonix: remember file-roller did it automatically I was not the one to delete it. | 06:40 |
| airtonix | mixmatch3, you can see about 4 of them right now if you open synaptics and search for undelete | 06:40 |
| darksector | Bardology: nope | 06:40 |
| jtaby | Bardology: i think so, it's in apache2.conf | 06:40 |
| darksector | Bardology: reinstall apache | 06:40 |
| jtaby | Bardology: mine is empty, no problems | 06:40 |
| Bardology | I was just going to uncomment the LoadModule line for mod_rewrite and there's nothing to uncomment ;) | 06:40 |
| darksector | Bardology: o crap, yeah its ok | 06:41 |
| airtonix | http://pastebin.com/f726502a7 | 06:41 |
| darksector | Bardology: its apache2.conf | 06:41 |
| Bardology | phew! | 06:41 |
| knoppix | I'm having screen problems, the task bar and desktop won't stretch to fight the entire screen, there is a black bar on the right side, but my mouse can go past it, I tried xrandr but no luck any ideas? | 06:41 |
| darksector | Bardology: sorry | 06:41 |
| airtonix | mixmatch3, there is results for my apt-cache search : http://pastebin.com/f726502a7 | 06:41 |
| Bardology | No worries, darksector :) | 06:41 |
| airtonix | mixmatch3, you also have this option : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1132299 | 06:42 |
| geirha | !undelete | mixmatch3 | 06:42 |
| ubottu | mixmatch3: Some tools to recover lost data are listed and explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery - Recovering deleted files on !ext3 filesystems can be virtually impossible, although methods that might work is some cases are described at at http://www.xs4all.nl/~carlo17/howto/undelete_ext3.html and http://projects.izzysoft.de/trac/ext3undel | 06:42 |
| darksector | airtonix: what is it exactly that you are looking for ? | 06:42 |
| quietone | Losha: Same result. | 06:42 |
| i_is_broke | airtonix, will that work on other fs besideds ext2? | 06:42 |
| airtonix | darksector, not me refer to whom i am talking to | 06:42 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | losha, how can I use the geometry option? Can't seem to figure out the syntax, or if it works at all :) | 06:42 |
| darksector | mixmatch3: oh you're looking for undelete then | 06:43 |
| === Basso_ is now known as Basso | ||
| mixmatch3 | darksector: It was on a truecrypt volume and it said it is an msdos type filesystem. | 06:44 |
| airtonix | mixmatch3, that whole thread i just posted you should be useful | 06:44 |
| quietone | Losha: Can I put the name I want in the Volume ID when using any tool to burn dvds. When I have been successful the names have been unrelated to the content | 06:44 |
| nigtv | Hello, I am having some very bad wifi connection problems. I am currently on 9.10 and have tried both iwconfig and nm-applet (the latter works better). In irssi, when I connect to my usual chat server, it's miserably slow, constant time outs, and I think it may be due to adding an autoconnect (and in turn, maybe two connections?) | 06:44 |
| losha | quietone: the volume id shouldn't make any difference. So what exactly happened? | 06:45 |
| nigtv | I'm not sure where to start, try getting or making a better antenna or trying to do stuff with the chat server to make it better | 06:45 |
| nigtv | its not my server, so | 06:45 |
| gaydenko | micahg: ping | 06:46 |
| nigtv | It's all working just fine right now, the irc connection, as you can see. Although, with the connection to my usual chat server is open, everything is horribly slow, and sometimes even when its not open. I just dont know where to start trying to fix, or where is best, I realize its hard to diagnose in a chatroom though | 06:46 |
| nigtv | removing autoconnect and autojoin in irssi didn't really have any effect, which is strange, because I think it started when I did that, around 12 hours after | 06:47 |
| Alan502_ | is this the same channel at freenode? | 06:47 |
| keith_ | hello all | 06:47 |
| quietone | Losha: Burning at the slowest speed failed. I got miffed and started to format the disk. The Volume ID is just for my sanity when I insert the disk into a computer. It would be useful for the name to make sense. | 06:47 |
| leaf-sheep | Alan502_: Yes. | 06:47 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | losha, I guess you don't know, then :X | 06:47 |
| Alan502_ | cool | 06:48 |
| losha | Samual-Ubuntu: I thought you said the -geometry option wasn't even accepted? | 06:48 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | Should it not work like the -display option from commandline? | 06:49 |
| losha | Samual-Ubuntu: do 'man X' and look for the geometry section.... | 06:49 |
| nigtv | I think that the connection problem with irc wouldnt be hardware because the connection overall is about as fast as ever, could be software, but I've never had this problem before with irssi/nm-applet, and I don't know what to ask the admins on the other server about fixing it or getting more information | 06:50 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | That page doesn't exist | 06:50 |
| keith_ | was looking to see if there is a utility to check signal strength on a usb modem in ubuntu 9.10 server | 06:50 |
| nigtv | keith_: is it wifi? | 06:50 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | But well, xserver does, so. | 06:50 |
| * nigtv is really tired, sorry that didnt make sense | 06:50 | |
| keith_ | verizon usb720 | 06:50 |
| nigtv | i mean to say if it is hardwired and not wireless, strength wouldnt mean anything | 06:51 |
| losha | Samual-Ubuntu: in 9.10, man X is in package xorgs-docs-core | 06:51 |
| nigtv | but thats probably not the situation keith_ ? | 06:51 |
| keith_ | cabled to my ubuntu server | 06:52 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | Heh well, i'm on 9.04 -- I don't particularly like 9.10 | 06:52 |
| Nperil | ok i need to know where fo find the .deb file for vlc | 06:52 |
| nigtv | keith_: so why would strength matter | 06:52 |
| nigtv | Nperil: try sourceforge? | 06:53 |
| keith_ | the windows app manager shows signal strenth, and if low i can move it to get better transfer speeds | 06:53 |
| Bardology | jtaby: does your apache2.conf contain any LoadModule commands or <Directory> settings? | 06:53 |
| losha | Samual-Ubuntu: you do a lot of whining for a developer | 06:53 |
| nigtv | so it is wireless keith_ ? | 06:53 |
| Nperil | not yet, just softpedia and ubuntu forums, but ill check it out | 06:53 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | Whining? Constructive criticism :) | 06:54 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | I would explain why I don't like 9.10, but that's useless :P | 06:54 |
| losha | Samual-Ubuntu: stop wasting my time and go and read the man page | 06:54 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | I am, in a VM, sorry and thanks. | 06:54 |
| keith_ | well it's a cdma wireless modem | 06:55 |
| losha | Nperil: why do you need the .deb file? | 06:55 |

| surmandal | hellow, I am unable to ping the yahoo.com but I can ping the ip address of yahoo | 06:56 |
| nigtv | Keiya: keith_ did you happen to catch the name of the person who requested the deb for vlc? | 06:57 |
| nigtv | i timed out and closed window before i remembered to | 06:57 |
| Bardology | Oh, sites-enabled... | 06:57 |
| keith_ | hold on a sec | 06:57 |
| Samual-Ubuntu | losha, I used to do that here a bit ago... Coffee was my best friend, but without it --- Eh, no worries mate :) | 06:57 |
| surmandal | I even can dig yahoo.com but when i ping yahoo.com it says unknown host | 06:57 |
| nigtv | last 2 minutes or so i think | 06:57 |
| nigtv | jozefk: yet | 06:57 |
| chrisin | (noob getting his feet wet) how do I get a .img file for 9.10? why not just have a dowload available on the site? | 06:57 |
| jozefk | i mean windows viruses on ubuntu ext4 partition | 06:57 |
| losha | nigtv: it was Nperil | 06:57 |
| nigtv | yes* | 06:57 |
| nigtv | Nperil: http://www.videohelp.com/forum/archive/vlc-0-9-2-deb-for-ubuntu-t357107.html | 06:57 |
| MikeChelen | chrisin: why .img, what's wrong with .iso? | 06:58 |
| Phil___ | question: why does ubuntu not look like this? http://fc01.deviantart.com/fs31/i/2008/215/0/b/Interpid_Ibex_Mockup_Part_2_by_willwill100.png | 06:58 |
| leaf-sheep | Phil___: That is a mock up. | 06:58 |
| airtonix | siavash_, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingEasyHowTo | 06:58 |
| nigtv | Phil___: youre not using compiz? | 06:58 |
| jozefk | ok thank you nigtv. maybe sometimes I'll put some virus there and test it :) | 06:58 |
| chrisin | because as the instructions on the ubuntu site state, I need a .img file to put the bootable CD on a USB flash drive | 06:58 |
| Phil___ | leaf-sheep: right, but what stops it from being a reality? | 06:58 |
| losha | Phil___: because it's fugly.... | 06:59 |
| Phil___ | looks better than the current theme imo :P | 06:59 |
| leaf-sheep | Phil___: I don't like to stare at the wood floor. :| | 06:59 |
| koshari | Phil___ its just gnome with avent and go | 06:59 |
| airtonix | Phil___, nothing, ou can make it look like that now | 06:59 |
| quietone | Losha: I got the same error each time. (auto speed/slowest speed/after a format of disk) <Unable to open a new session. Probably a problem with the medium> | 06:59 |
| indus | Phil___: you can use that theme i believe | 07:00 |
| geirha | !usb | chrisin | 07:00 |
| airtonix | Phil___, system menu up top left is merely a gtk theme, the bar down bottom is just docky or awn, the stuff on the right is just screenlets or goggle-gagdets | 07:00 |
| ubottu | chrisin: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 07:00 |
| geirha | chrisin: You are probably looking at the instructions for the Ubuntu Netbook Remix which comes as a .img file | 07:00 |
| losha | quietone: I'm not sure, to be honest. I haven't used RWs in years. Maybe bastidrazor will know when he comes back online... | 07:00 |
| airtonix | Phil___, the thing in the middle however you won't be able to theme like that i dont believe | 07:00 |
| siavash_ | Thanks airtonix | 07:00 |
| airtonix | Phil___, unless of course gnome-do theme has changed recently | 07:01 |
| chrisin | oh "Note: this procedure requires an .img file; it will not work with an .iso file" is this just for netbooks? | 07:01 |

| airtonix | eddiegentry, well considering that the article you linked is a complete fabrication i find it hard to believe that you infact being genuiune | 07:11 |
| wrb123 | thanks | 07:11 |
| eddiegentry | someone install for me | 07:11 |
| indus | what article | 07:11 |
| eddiegentry | my friend did | 07:11 |
| eddiegentry | hes a computer genius | 07:11 |
| airtonix | eddiegentry, not only that but you seem to be hesitant on giving actual information. | 07:11 |
| leaf-sheep | airtonix: I could say the same. Not sure if he is real or jestering around. | 07:11 |

| coz_ | AnAnt, I see ... ok so x crashes when you log into the desktop correct? | 07:28 |
| Phil___ | so why's it better for laptops, just because it uses less ram? | 07:28 |
| Dwade09 | anyone tell me if free the fish is an app and can be sent to me to use on my comp? | 07:29 |
| AnAnt | coz_: freezes | 07:29 |
| coz_ | Phil___, it really depends on how much memory cpu power and video you have | 07:29 |
| coz_ | AnAnt, oh ok mm hold on | 07:29 |
| AnAnt | coz_: yet I was able to access the system via SSH | 07:30 |
| leaf-sheep | Phil___: It is a preference. People use XFCE or LXDE because in theory, it should be less bloated than GNOME and KDE. | 07:30 |
| AnAnt | coz_: so it is not a complete system freeze | 07:30 |
| coz_ | AnAnt, ok can you get into system/preferences/appearance that way? | 07:30 |

| Dwade09 | leaf-sheep: type in free the fish | 07:31 |

| ianyikos | i accidentally unplugged the network cord when i was installing a program, but it was after the program was downloaded. The problem is that the graphics on my computer look horrible now. is there any way i could have caused it by unplugging the network cord? | 08:47 |
| Kage_Jittai | cancelerx: there are a lot of ways to do that, I prefer sshfs | 08:48 |
| dca | yesterday it worked fine when i configured it for the first time, but today it is not working.. dont know how to Debug | 08:48 |
| rawr_ | ianyikos, what do you mean exactly when you say graphics look terrible? distorted? if so how? low resoultion maybe? | 08:48 |
| leaf-sheep | ianyikos: What packages? If it get unplugged, then you should not obtain a complete package. It'd halt. | 08:49 |
| ianyikos | they don't look as aesthetically pleasing. it's not that they look bad i guess, just not as good. lol. | 08:49 |
| Kage_Jittai | leaf-sheep: he said after it was done downloading though | 08:49 |
| leaf-sheep | Kage_Jittai: I know. I wanted to know what package he tried to install. :) | 08:49 |
| cancelerx | Kage_Jittai : i was looking more at a solution that is samba based i guess | 08:50 |
| ianyikos | it was pidgin internet messenger. | 08:50 |
| rawr_ | ianyikos, well if your graphics are still working and are not distorted, then logic tells me it's not a hardware issue. what package out of curiousity | 08:50 |
| Kage_Jittai | cancelerx: samba has always been a living hell for me personally | 08:50 |
| Kage_Jittai | cancelerx: samba has always been a living hell for me personally | 08:51 |
| leaf-sheep | cancelerx: There are SAMBA, SSH (SSHFS, DIRECT SSH/SCP, SFTP, RSYNC, NTP), etc. Also, Nautilus (Your file manager) are capable of accessing other computers. | 08:51 |
| Kage_Jittai | cancelerx: also NFS | 08:52 |
| leaf-sheep | ianyikos: It is not related. I'm guessing something else happened. Screenshot? :o | 08:52 |
| ianyikos | it might have been downloading dependencies or something when i unplugged it i guess, i don't know. it just really annoys me. lol. | 08:52 |
| cancelerx | i knu of the Nautilus just wanted a command line equivalent.. well i will do some more google search | 08:52 |
| cancelerx | thanks | 08:52 |
| rawr_ | ianyikos, best suggestion i can give at your junction is to try reinstalling the package. this time without unplugging your network cable ;) | 08:53 |
| furo | hello | 08:53 |
| ianyikos | well i don't know, it's happened before with a different program too, and when i reinstalled it there was no difference. it looks fine when i boot off of the cd though. | 08:55 |
| marlun | Anyone know of a ppa for ubuntu with the latest php version (5.2.11) in it? | 08:55 |
| moymoy | I just tried a Fedora LiveCD, and the console font was absolutely beautiful.. is that something only enabled using KMS? | 08:55 |
| rawr_ | ianyikos, stop randomly unplugging your network cable heh :D | 08:56 |
| furo | quit | 08:56 |
| ianyikos | it's broken. lol. | 08:56 |
| furo | QUIT | 08:56 |
| Quan-Time | try /quit | 08:56 |
| indus | hi agains | 08:58 |
| ianyikos | i mean the program i installed has nothing to do with the graphics driver, so that just totally seems illogical to me, yet it happened. lol. | 08:58 |
| mutext | Is there ported Ubuntu Remix for PPC? | 08:59 |
| rawr_ | ianyikos, indeed does seem strange. i've never tried randomly unplugging my network cable though, so i have no idea what you did to it | 08:59 |
| leaf-sheep | !ppc | mutext | 08:59 |
| ubottu | mutext: PowerPC. Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ | 08:59 |
| leaf-sheep | mutext: You can install ubuntu-netbook-remix | 08:59 |
| c0l2e | Optoma Pico PK101 will this work with ubuntu ?? | 09:00 |
| mutext | couldn't find a link to download .iso ...currently running 9.1 PPC | 09:00 |
| c0l2e | and with VGA to RCA adapter ?? | 09:00 |
| rawr_ | ianyikos, perhaps try checking your display settings and insuring the resolution is correct. if that's good, perhaps check out your compiz/emerald settings | 09:00 |
| darkshadow | hmm | 09:01 |
| c0l2e | Optoma Pico PK101 + VGA to RCA adapter to an Ubuntu laptop | 09:01 |
| c0l2e | will it work? | 09:01 |
| mutext | leaf-sheep: happen to have a link where I can download the remix ported to PPC? | 09:01 |
| ianyikos | what is compiz/emerald? | 09:01 |
| Trota | windows FTW | 09:01 |
| Trota | kill those penguins... | 09:02 |
| rawr_ | ianyikos, essentially it's your window manager that determines fancy extra graphic stuff | 09:02 |
| darkshadow | hi | 09:03 |
| rawr_ | !hi | darkshadow | 09:03 |
| ubottu | darkshadow: 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! | 09:03 |
| jamiewan_ | mutext: http://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/download-netbook | 09:03 |
| ianyikos | i don't know how to adjust settings for that i don't think, at least i haven't seen any. | 09:03 |
| darkshadow | ok | 09:04 |
| mutext | jamiewan: it's for Intel chip | 09:04 |
| jamiewan_ | i put that onto an asus eeepc today, works great | 09:04 |
| ssam | mutext, i think you will have to add the netbook remix packages to your existing install | 09:05 |
| rawr_ | ianyikos, hrm well perhaps you don't have it installed. in that case then i have no idea what you mean when you say it doesn't look as good | 09:05 |
| darkshadow | k | 09:06 |
| leaf-sheep | mutext: You say you're using PPC right now? | 09:06 |
| l1nUx1z3r | can someone help me with thunderbird 3, i want to be able to minimize it to the tray | 09:06 |
| ianyikos | the windows don't appear 3-dimensional anymore, they're just totally flat-looking. | 09:06 |
| mutext | ssam...Agree, that's possible to install the remix packages | 09:06 |
| ssam | mutext, see the the "Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid) UNR Package Installation" section on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UNR/Installation/Hard (skip the adding an extra repository bit) | 09:06 |
| mutext | yes...I'm running 9.10 on G3 ibook | 09:06 |
| rawr_ | ianyikos, perhaps change your theme in System->Preferences->Appearance | 09:07 |
| l1nUx1z3r | ianyikos, are you using compiz?? | 09:07 |
| rawr_ | no he's not | 09:07 |
| ssam | mutext, all the different ubuntu version (kubuntu, netbook, xubuntu), and basically the same, but have different packages installed by default | 09:07 |
| ianyikos | it says that i have that installed. | 09:07 |
| ianyikos | should i reinstall it? | 09:07 |
| IdleOne | !ccsm | ianyikos | 09:08 |
| ubottu | ianyikos: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or 'simple-ccsm'. If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz | 09:08 |
| l1nUx1z3r | ianyikos, do you see compiz settings manager? | 09:08 |
| mutext | ssam: agreed....I was just hoping that there's ppc ported netmix .iso :) | 09:08 |
| marlun | Is it possible to downgrade a package like PHP using apt-get? | 09:08 |
| ianyikos | yeah | 09:08 |
| l1nUx1z3r | if not, install that then run it and enable 3-D desktop | 09:08 |
| leaf-sheep | !pinning | marlun | 09:08 |
| ubottu | marlun: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto | 09:08 |
| frogzoo | marlun: can be done by uninstalling, then pinning the install | 09:09 |

| kinja-sheep | aaaoooaaa: Hmmm. You'll be likely to need a specific kernel (version) too. | 10:41 |
| Spixx | what is this gem you speak of? is aptitude not good enough? | 10:41 |
| kinja-sheep | aaaoooaaa: Also, check this out --> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam --> (Look for your make/model). Your hardwares should work fine out of the box. | 10:43 |
| aaaoooaaa | kinja-sheep: yeah mine's 2.6.31-14-generic | 10:43 |

| kinja-sheep | aaaoooaaa: Fresh installation? We're at *.16 now :o | 10:43 |
| Spixx | because the error gives me the idea of the package missing from rep? I've never used gem so I don't know how to use it but perhaps check what reps you are using is a good idea? | 10:44 |
| Spixx | cubicular: and it is hard to not know what error you are getting | 10:44 |

| siropio | oCean_ ok | 10:49 |
| indus | cubicular: right now where are you stuck | 10:49 |
| kane77 | cubicular, you can try to manually download the gem from rubyforge and install it using sudo gem install -l gemname.gem (that is lowercase -L parameter) | 10:49 |
| aaaoooaaa | kinja-sheep: so whatdya think I should be doing here | 10:50 |
| cubicular | i want to get a repository so that xdcc fetch can be more automatically installed | 10:50 |
| indus | cubicular: is it in synaptic ? | 10:50 |
| cubicular | indus: no | 10:50 |
| kane77 | cubicular, are you by any chance running something other than 32-bit ubuntu? | 10:50 |
| erUSUL | cubicular: gem like cpan is not hdnled by the ubuntu repos | 10:51 |
| kinja-sheep | aaaoooaaa: Get the generic one and 2.6.31-16-generic. | 10:51 |
| cubicular | im incredibly confused | 10:51 |
| kinja-sheep | aaaoooaaa: Really, you should only need the "*-2.6.31-16-generic" part. | 10:51 |
| kane77 | cubicular, from what I see in rubyforge there is only i386 version of the gem.. | 10:52 |
| oCean_ | cubicular: why. The gem repositories are *not* the same as ubuntu repositories | 10:52 |
| aaaoooaaa | kinja-sheep: you mean the 2 files here : http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=linux-backports-modules-wireless-karmic-generic | 10:52 |
| ruki | ubuntu one is showing capabilities mismatch!! what can i do to connect it? | 10:53 |

| cubicular | is it a package you have to install | 10:59 |
| indus | cubicular: tell me, why do u say gem is not working | 10:59 |

| indus | cubicular: sudo apt-get install ruby-gems | 11:00 |
| indus | cubicular: sudo apt-get install rubygems | 11:00 |

| NV` | i just installed a virtualised one within vmware, but noticed its running a -generic kernel, id have imagined the virtualised one would have selected a tuned kernel for virtualisation (low tickrate, etc) | 11:02 |
| indus | cubicular: where is this file you downloaded? | 11:02 |
| NV` | Gambaroni: you probably want to add the -r flag, which makes it recurse into sub directories | 11:02 |
| Gambaroni | NV` I JUST want the files | 11:03 |
| chrisw | kinja-sheep: /root/.aptitude/config is empty on both machines, and we do all aptitude stuff as root... | 11:03 |
| oCean_ | ruki: quick search of launchpad shows some capabilities mismatch entries. Are you on fresh install 9.10? According to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntuone-client/+bug/463093 and related bugs, it seems that some updates (should) have fixed this..? | 11:03 |
| NV` | Gambaroni: then add the -d flag which makes it not recurse into sub directories then? | 11:03 |
| Gambaroni | NV` I don't want the dirs at all :) | 11:03 |

| TangoTooL | not a very good thing to have :P | 11:11 |
| indus | [SilverFox]: works fantastically | 11:11 |
| soreau | [SilverFox]: The problem is the proprietary driver. Before you installed, you were using the open radon driver, which now has 3D support for your card if you use latest kernel and components from the xorg-edgers repo. You can only use the open driver if fglrx is completely removed from the system | 11:12 |
| indus | [SilverFox]: i was scared after reading ati issues for 3 years but heh i dont face any | 11:12 |
| oCean_ | LiL_mr-t: well, it is possible. I haven't use irssi in a long time, but using "/set autolog on" should work I think | 11:12 |
| indus | what good is 3d anyways if theere are no applications which use it | 11:12 |
| indus | 2d is good enough for linux | 11:12 |
| indus | :| | 11:12 |
| [SilverFox] | soreau: a friend did it for me im new to linux he wanted me to use it I want to use it. He did install it but I was getting bad Frames and the 2d glitch still was effecting the desktop | 11:12 |
| [SilverFox] | right when I change to any driver | 11:12 |
| [SilverFox] | my desktop slugs | 11:13 |
| [SilverFox] | we tried like 5 drivers | 11:13 |
| frogzoo | 3d is really experimental, despite what the packagers say | 11:13 |
| indus | [SilverFox]:set settings in driver to default | 11:13 |
| soreau | [SilverFox]: Without latest components from xorg-edgers repo and latest kernel, you will only have 2D with that card | 11:13 |
| oCean_ | LiL_mr-t: not sure what default logging path is, but command like "/set autolog_path /path/to/mylog" is worth a shot :) - also there might be a config file where you could add these to make them permanent | 11:13 |
| frogzoo | one of these days they'll find something useful to use it for | 11:13 |
| [SilverFox] | soreau: problem was 3d works amazing 2d blows | 11:13 |
| indus | soreau: can you point me to that ppa ? i want the latest | 11:14 |
| LiL_mr-t | oCean_: ah, thanks. so by default no record of activity but by specifying as you mention i can obtain logs? thanks. | 11:14 |
| soreau | indus: It is called xorg-edgers | 11:14 |
| indus | [SilverFox]: 2d sucks with nvidia also | 11:14 |
| indus | [SilverFox]: why do you need 3d anyway. | 11:14 |

| frogzoo | but ascii for choice | 11:15 |
| [SilverFox] | indus: lol what about quake wars? | 11:16 |
| indus | [SilverFox]: other than that, i dont know why people complain about 3d anyway :) to run compiz yeah right | 11:16 |
| === sale_ is now known as sale | ||
| indus | [SilverFox]: ya ya 2 years later | 11:16 |
| indus | [SilverFox]: id stuff i mean | 11:16 |
| [SilverFox] | indus: well i don't care about 3d as much im happy with mine I will live with it not as good windows but good enough just the 2d ruining me | 11:16 |
| [SilverFox] | indus: after moving around for an hour I feel sick from the glitchy windows :S | 11:16 |
| indus | ubuntu users stop complaining about driver problems in 3d when there is no application in 3d for linux :) | 11:17 |
| [SilverFox] | lol | 11:17 |
| indus | hehe | 11:17 |
| indus | [SilverFox]: could you check the bug wiki for ATI? | 11:17 |
| lowlycoder | what's a good tablet/slate laptop for ubuntu? | 11:17 |
| indus | [SilverFox]: wait i give u link | 11:17 |
| [SilverFox] | I looked I think | 11:17 |
| [SilverFox] | the unoffical ati wiki | 11:18 |

| Ulmanyar | After downgrading GDM in Karmic (that is: installing the legacy package gdm-2.20) I get some issues with x-servers "already running on display :0" etc. Anyone know how to fix this? | 11:18 |

| ZzTop | how do I chmod als file so that I can run it.. | 11:18 |
| [SilverFox] | ty | 11:19 |
| indus | not opening :D | 11:19 |
| [SilverFox] | dsame | 11:19 |
| indus | [SilverFox]: iam waiting for overdrive gui ,right now its command line, also a prettier looking ccc | 11:19 |
| soreau | [SilverFox]: The open driver is going to e a lot better in the long run. It has always been the default in ubuntu but now it even has 3D support for your card too. It is so new, that it did not quite make it into jaunty which is why you would have to use xorg-edgers repo driver components and latest kernel | 11:19 |
| MohsenT | Hi . how i find my chipset model ? | 11:19 |
| soreau | [SilverFox]: But the open driver cannot work while fglrx is installed | 11:20 |
| indus | soreau: the open driver cant run quake 4 or doom3 | 11:20 |
| indus | soreau: more details on request :) | 11:20 |
| [SilverFox] | soreau I'm really new to this if I don't follow a detailed instruction I fail | 11:20 |
| indus | soreau: its not the driver which is the issue, its the application | 11:20 |
| [SilverFox] | x11 | 11:21 |
| Cube`` | hey! does anybody know a (rather small) project that needs somebody to write a manual/documentation/help?? | 11:21 |
| soreau | [SilverFox]: Well just know you do not need to install a driver. It will work OOTB, even with 3D in Lucid | 11:21 |
| indus | soreau: if an application uses a feature which is closed, the open driver will never run it without reverseengin etc | 11:21 |
| lowlycoder | where is my /boot/grub/menu.lst ? I no longer see it | 11:21 |
| soreau | indus: Im not here to argue, but you really have no idea what youre talking about | 11:21 |
| bullgard | [Karmic] Totem reproduces from a DVD the video, but not the sound. PulseAudio Applet > Volume Control (> Volume Control) > Totem Movie Player Playback Stream shows the loudspeaker symbol with the emblem 'Muted'. How to enable sound reproduction? | 11:21 |
| [SilverFox] | well my friend said he tried the open driver | 11:21 |
| [SilverFox] | it was the same lag on the desktop then | 11:21 |
| indus | soreau: can i run s3tc with the open driver then? | 11:21 |
| indus | soreau: or did you try running quake 4 wih it? | 11:22 |
| soreau | indus: Eventually with the gallium driver, yes | 11:22 |
| indus | soreau: eventually yeah | 11:22 |
| [SilverFox] | maybe Im trapped on windows forever hehe | 11:22 |
| indus | soreau: doesnt run now though unless i use some hack in driconf | 11:22 |
| soreau | [SilverFox]: For now, you can try turning off desktop visual effects to see if that helps | 11:23 |
| [SilverFox] | soreau: I just tired that they were already disabled | 11:24 |
| [SilverFox] | soreau: was like my desktop knew it sucked | 11:24 |
| soreau | [SilverFox]: What is the output of fglrxinfo? | 11:24 |

| shai | Hi :) On a fresh Ubuntu installation, when I open a Gnome Terminal and left click with the mouse on a line where text doesn't appear (to the right of the text or on places where text just doesn't exist), the entire line, from very right of the text to the EOL, gets highlighted (ie. copied to the clipboard).

| Subby | Hi, every time, some milliseconds before a sound is played, the speaker are making a cracking noise. how do I stop that? i think ubuntu switches somthing on and of between every sound | 12:11 |
| airtonix | Subby, this is my assumption too. I'm having same issues with sound since moving from 8.10 to 9.10 | 12:11 |
| Quan-Time | is it that the speaker is "charging up" its coil ? | 12:12 |
| Quan-Time | sounds like a weird problem.. | 12:12 |
| airtonix | Quan-Time, no i think its pulse audio | 12:12 |
| Subby | Quan-Time: its liks when i press the power button of my speaker... | 12:12 |
| Quan-Time | oh ok.. | 12:12 |
| Subby | but in windows they dont do that before playing a sound, so its not the speaker | 12:13 |
| airtonix | Quan-Time, Subby a large pop or crack | 12:13 |
| frogzoo | Subby: reduce your pcm volume to 95% | 12:13 |
| Subby | airtonix: a crack | 12:13 |
| Quan-Time | umm... not sure.. i have a laptop.. and my audio is fine.. but im hearing HEAPS of problems about audio in here from people. so you guys and gals aint alone | 12:13 |
| airtonix | frogzoo, there is no 'pcm' silder on the sound controller app | 12:13 |
| Subby | even when I change the volume it cracks | 12:14 |
| Quan-Time | alsa master controls ? | 12:14 |
| Subby | frogzoo: it is at 94% | 12:14 |
| airtonix | Quan-Time, also isn't running the sound anymore | 12:14 |
| airtonix | Quan-Time, alsa* | 12:14 |
| Subby | It is so anoying, every time i get an im it cracks and the plays the sound | 12:14 |
| Quan-Time | oh ok | 12:15 |
| Subby | then* | 12:15 |
| Quan-Time | do you have another jack to try using headphones on ? | 12:15 |
| Subby | me? | 12:15 |
| Quan-Time | im taking the guess that the speakers are powered.. and headphones are unpowered... | 12:15 |
| Quan-Time | yer Subby | 12:16 |
| Subby | the speaker have their own powersuply | 12:16 |
| Quan-Time | ok.. try with headphones if you can just to eliminate any hardware problems.. im 90% convinced its software related.. btu you never know | 12:16 |
| Subby | oh and its not the same if when i switch on/off the speaker: switch on: no sound switch off: large pop play sound: short crack | 12:17 |
| Subby | okay ill try that | 12:17 |
| kinja-sheep | indus: When you came in, I want to thank you for sharing the cookie with me. I'm going to sleep now. Have a good $PERIOD_OF_TIME. ;-) | 12:17 |

| airtonix | always_smile, applications > accessories > shutter | 13:44 |
| airtonix | always_smile, when you run it for the first time it'll appear in the system tray too. (which you can right click to quckly get the types of screen shots you want to take ) | 13:45 |
| Confuzius | Organized, depends what the program you're running is, I dont think wine has it's own fps meter | 13:45 |

| DASPRiD | DaZ, 1.6.6 was released 22 Oct 2009, how much more time to they need? | 13:58 |
| airtonix | always_smile, then choose one of the three options there (doesn't matter which one ) | 13:59 |

| === reactor__ is now known as reactor | ||

| DaZ | DASPRiD: maybe they won't update it at all :f | 13:59 |
| airtonix | always_smile, then after it has uploaded then you'll get a window with some possible links to copy & paste, the one you want for irc here is the "direct link" | 13:59 |
| DASPRiD | DaZ, 1.6.5 has a serious bug, they should | 13:59 |

| DaZ | DASPRiD: 1.6.6 is in lucid ; | 14:00 |
| airtonix | zamba, then that only leaves one other option : your video card isn;t supported to the degree that it is in windows. is it an onboard chip ? ( i assume you are on a laptop ) | 14:01 |

| RickJones | jrib, ok, i just wanted to ask first before i invest the effort in downloading and attemopting to dual boot. Thanks | 14:40 |
| ActionParsnip | [[thufir]]: no idea, I add that stuff in ~/.config/autostart or ~/.kde/Autorun in kde | 14:40 |
| Infin1ty | Jamed, well, they are back online now, weird | 14:40 |
| ActionParsnip | Ziber: http://rockpenguin.wordpress.com/2008/05/21/ubuntu-and-mountcifs/ | 14:40 |
| airtonix | always_smile, only other thing i can think of is if you have the standalone helix player installed? maybe try removing that too | 14:41 |
| Jamed | Infin1ty: yeah wierd | 14:41 |
| Infin1ty | jamed, if i recall it's not the first time it happens (to me atleast) sometimes retrieving keys from the keyserver times out and then i can see nothing that relates to canonical works | 14:41 |
| ActionParsnip | Ziber: if the server has been onnected to via vpn you will be able to use its local IP address, you can also add an entry in /etc/hosts to be able to use its name | 14:41 |
| [[thufir]] | ActionParsnip: huh, ok. you're on ubuntu 9.10, but using kde? | 14:41 |

| Hrishikesh | e got the same problem? | 14:59 |
| ActionParsnip | zamba: ok lets be a little more specific (I hate intel vga so bad) | 14:59 |
| rahul_ | great..!!!!!!!!! | 15:00 |
| zamba | ActionParsnip: so do i - from now on :p | 15:00 |
| zamba | but i had exactly the same problem with nvidia a couple of weeks ago | 15:00 |
| przemo_one | zamba here's your problem. you have some integrated graphic card. it's poor. what you need to do is check your bios settings for how much memory it have. give moreand then give a try. get better vga, because flash takes loads of vga and cpu power, so you're not the only one with this problem. | 15:00 |
| ActionParsnip | zamba: http://pastebin.com/d2873679f try that, specifies 1024x768 res | 15:01 |
| zamba | ActionParsnip: well.. the monitor should be able to handle 1280x1024 | 15:01 |
| Ziber | ActionParsnip: "bad superblock". same error | 15:01 |
| przemo_one | zamba there is temp solution. every file which is playd by flash is in /tmp. you can go on youtube, pouse, and open the file with totem. i do that with hd streams. | 15:01 |
| ActionParsnip | Hrishikesh: i'd ask in #vbox for virtualbox help | 15:02 |
| ActionParsnip | zamba: then change it when you paste it.... | 15:02 |
| przemo_one | zamba pause* :) | 15:02 |
| zamba | przemo_one: ok. i'll try that as well | 15:02 |
| Hrishikesh | ActionParsnip: yeah ok, thanks. I was just thinking of doing that | 15:02 |
| ActionParsnip | Hrishikesh: if the OS doesnt show its face at all hen its the virtualisation at fault | 15:03 |
| boomernang | Hi, i'm using ubuntu 9.10 64bit with nvidia drivers 185.18.36. I've got 2 monitors set up with twin view(worked flawlessly with default settings) except I can't save it to the X config. This means that I have to enable twin view everytime i boot ubuntu. When I click 'Save to X configuration file' in the Nvidia X Server Settings it says, 'Failure to parse existing X config file /etc/X11/xorg.conf'. It's not that much of an issue, | 15:03 |
| boomernang | but any idea how I can save the setup? | 15:03 |
| ActionParsnip | boomernang: run: gksudo nvidia-settings you now can | 15:03 |
| ActionParsnip | boomernang: you will need to run: sudo nvidia-xconfig first | 15:04 |
| zamba | ActionParsnip: nope.. same problem | 15:04 |
| zamba | .. giving up for now | 15:04 |
| zamba | thanks for trying | 15:04 |
| Hrishikesh | ActionParsnip: Yeah, I guess that is the logical reason :) | 15:04 |

| ActionParsnip | Ziber: you will need to look at the smb.conf on the server side to check you are correctly sharing folders, you can't mount a server, you mount the share. You have not shared any folders (as you saw with smbtree) so any mount attemot will fail | 15:20 |
| Ziber | ActionParsnip: I'm trying to mount \\10.0.0.1\\share | 15:21 |

| ks3 | dj_: May be new in Karmic... add "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/chromium-daily/ppa/ubuntu karmic main" to your repositories and then install chromium-browser | 15:52 |

| mheld | I'm running LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libdlfaker.so:/usr/lib/librrfaker.so:/usr/lib/turbojpeg.so ./dmtcp/bin/dmtcp_checkpoint vglrun glxgears, and the LD_PRELOAD does preload the libraries but they get closed before dmtcp_checkpoint actually runs.

| pj228 | so anyhoo, I installed XP after installing karmic, and following the same guide I followed before (which worked) after installing 7 previously, now it complains when I try to chroot into my /mnt | 15:54 |
| DJones | laughzilla: I used to use an app called "motion" which would take a picture everytime the image in front of a webcam changed & would save it to disk, I don't know whether it would be possible to automatically upload to a website direct from motion, but presumably you could do that another way | 15:54 |
| maco | Vooloo: normal users dont have access to /dev/dsp, only pulseaudio does. unless you start with kubuntu or xubuntu since they dont use pulse | 15:54 |
| Vooloo | Im on hardy | 15:54 |
| laughzilla | djones - thanks :) i'll look at "motion". i can't seem to find any webcam apps for ubuntu that automatically take a photo. is there a command line i can run to do it that i can stick in a .sh file and activate every second in crontab? | 15:55 |
| maco | Vooloo: ahh ok | 15:55 |
| Vooloo | changing to ALSA on everything works now | 15:55 |

| papul | maco, how is it? | 16:01 |

| SoulBlade | hi guys - kcachegrind is crashing for me on startup when processing output from valgrind (it works fine w/o any input) - the error lines i see are sock_file=/home/user/.kde/socket-pc-name/kdeinit4__0 followed by connect() failed: No such file or directory | 16:03 |
| boomernang | bittyx, easy :) ./ means execute - nothing to do with directory. also google how to add your /home/username to your shell path... so you can actually type program from /etc for example | 16:03 |

| airtonix | VirusTB, so my previous example would be : dpkg -l | grep pastebinit > package-list-output.txt | 16:21 |
| dAlfa89_ | VirusTB, sudo apt-get install pastebinit | 16:22 |
| VirusTB | airtonix, huh, still a bit unclear to me isnt there a package "pastebinit" | 16:22 |

| Flare183 | LewisDre4m: Follow what maco said, it should be mounted in /media/cdrom0 or /media/cdrom1 | 16:31 |
| LewisDre4m | Flare183, what do you mean? | 16:32 |
| LewisDre4m | I can see my optical drive in "COMPUTER" how do I share it? | 16:32 |
| Flare183 | LewisDre4m: found out where the drive is mounted at. | 16:32 |
| maco | LewisDre4m: when a dvd is in, its contents should show in /media/cdrom0 or thereabouts | 16:32 |
| maco | LewisDre4m: share that to share its contents | 16:33 |
| LewisDre4m | where do I locate its folder? | 16:33 |

| TopKatz | hello - I using a hardware raid card. I'm wondering how I'm suposed to handle a kernel/eader upgrade with the cards drivers. Right now I reboot the system after update, and have to reinstall the drivers, using make install. I feel Im doing this wrong, as the raid has to come up with no drivers first. Can I jsut do the make install before reboot, but after header update. Should the make install build against the new header | 16:47 |
| TopKatz | before reboot? | 16:47 |
| maco | LewisDre4m: system -> administration -> authorizations | 16:47 |
| maco | LewisDre4m: it wants you to give permissions to do that | 16:47 |
| gabriel_ | bastid_raZor: Like I said, Gparted and System Monitor report the disk being full (5MiB free, 0MiB avail), so it would seem that on a block level, the disk thinks it is full (~107GiB), but when Disk Usage Analyzer looks at the actual files present, it only comes up with ~30GiB. As far as I know, no required directories are located on separate partitions, but is it possible for space to be reserved without it show | 16:47 |

| Dr_Willis | mickster04: i had to make a xorg.conf beforhand. then let the file save to the premade xorg.conf.. OR save the config somewhere else first.. then copy it by hand to /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 16:56 |
| LukaszT1 | chmod it* | 16:56 |

That's why I'll give you guys all information now: I'm using a siemens gigaset usb adapter 108, my router is a KPN experia box. The adapter is USB. It seems that the device is installed but fine, but the rest isn't. wlan0 isn't installed. ndiswrapper -l shows this: http://codepad.org/waGbQDZY - iwconfig: http://codepad.org/5FsQaWxj - | 17:13 |
| wvd | ifconfig: http://codepad.org/zvxSsc6V - dmesg: http://codepad.org/GUMuI5b0 - Anyone could please take a look and might help? I also tried downloading the drivers from http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/ndiswrapper/index.php?title=Siemens_Gigaset_USB_108 but then it doesn't show that any device/hardware is installed @ ndiswrapper + it gives error at dmesg, and wlan0 is still not there. Thank you very much. | 17:13 |

| jrib | aaron11: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line) | 17:18 |
| aaron11 | jrib: What do you mean? I just gave all my details | 17:19 |
| LewisDre4m | jrib don't be sarcastic to him he has been very helpful and is looking for help himself. | 17:19 |

| LewisDre4m | aaron11: I shared stuff in samba but still not coming up in her network places on her pc. | 17:27 |
| jrib | aaron11: maybe though it's not really something you have to worry about unless you start exposing services to the outside world (by default ubuntu does not run any services exposed to the outside world). Otherwise, just stick to software from trusted repositories and you will be fine | 17:27 |

| Joelito | Hi all, a question about using ubuntu CD alternate... | 17:36 |
| nacitar | indian_munnda: open the case, look at the board. | 17:37 |
| blakkheim | indian_munnda: either a PCI/e slot or an AGP slot, you can find pictures of both of them on wikipedia or google. | 17:37 |
| migi_ | mickster04, it says I have to give it a password | 17:37 |
| Joelito | is it possible to use any alternate CD version as like debian's netinstall? | 17:37 |
| khelvan | LewisDre4m, jrib asked you if you can see your Ubuntu share on the Ubuntu machine itself. blakkheim asked you if you tried setting up an NFS server on Ubuntu. I think you answered my question, but you did not use my name in your response. On IRC you should address the person who you are responding to so that their name is highlighted and they are alerted as to your response. | 17:37 |
| mickster04 | migi_, in which case use "guest" then leave a post it? | 17:37 |
| indian_munnda | blakkheimok thanks man | 17:37 |

| kantxx | whats the diff from ubuntu desktop & server isos? | 17:38 |
| philipp_ | <LjL> so he dont answers what now? | 17:38 |
| blakkheim | kantxx: one is for desktop use, one is for server use, but they can both be altered to do the opposite. | 17:38 |
| migi_ | mickster04, lol, no, I meant a post-it with a password is stone age technology :) | 17:38 |
| migi_ | age as in year | 17:39 |
| mickster04 | migi_, oh, well its the easiest thing so u dont have to tell everyone | 17:39 |
| LewisDre4m | If I go into PLACES / NETWORK I have a folder that says WINDOWS NETWORK and it has all the computers on my network and I can view their files. HOWEVER if I share files on this ubuntu machine they cannot see them or anything. | 17:39 |
| kantxx | blakkheim: does server just cut out the crap?(ie bluetooth n stuff) | 17:39 |
| mickster04 | LewisDre4m, have u installed samba properly? | 17:39 |
| blakkheim | kantxx: the server iso is still almost 700mb, i would just use the minimal iso if you need a "cut down" version | 17:39 |
| LewisDre4m | mickster04: I installed Samba a min ago yes | 17:39 |
| indian_munnda | blakkheim both the slots looks to be same....:( | 17:39 |
| migi_ | mickster04, no, but are you serious that a 2009 operating system is incapable of a simple guest account without a password? | 17:39 |
| kantxx | blakkheim: hmm i just want simple X.. mainly console | 17:39 |
| Joelito | how can I use the ubuntu CD alternate to install only system base and not GUI? | 17:40 |
| blakkheim | kantxx: i would just use the minimal iso and then install X and the apps you need | 17:40 |
| mickster04 | migi_, sudo adduser ? | 17:40 |
| LewisDre4m | If I go into PLACES / NETWORK I have a folder that says WINDOWS NETWORK and it has all the computers on my network and I can view their files. HOWEVER if I share files on this ubuntu machine they cannot see them or anything. THAT is what i'm having the problem with | 17:40 |
| blakkheim | Joelito: use the minimal iso like i am explainint | 17:40 |
| blakkheim | indian_munnda: there is a difference. how old is your motherboard? | 17:40 |

| philipp_ | <jrib> sry but the man realy sucks.... whats the command that i have to enter to press the button "a" | 17:41 |
| Joelito | blakkheim Sorry, didn't see your comment, but can't we just use the alternate CD or passing some extra params to the boot line? | 17:41 |
| Dr_Willis | LewisDre4m: i always make identically named users on the linxu and window box's i also give each linux user a 'samba password' (via sudo smbpasswd -a USERNAME) be sure the workgroups are the same in /etc/samba/smb.conf also. | 17:41 |
| mickster04 | LewisDre4m, it may need a restart? check the samba config at /etc/samba/smb.conf | 17:41 |
| khelvan | LewisDre4m, also, PLEASE include the full name of the person you are addressing in your response. You can do that by typing just the first few letters of their name and hitting TAB. | 17:41 |
| maverick | blakkheim: but there was no video driver before, it accepted it and gave me the optimal resolution automatically | 17:41 |
| blakkheim | Joelito: the alternate install is still on the bloated side, if you want a minimal console environment you should use the minimal iso | 17:41 |
| indian_munnda | blakkheim i m on windows right wait i m switching to ubuntu dont go... | 17:41 |
| Dr_Willis | LewisDre4m: an alternative way to get files back and forth from a windows to linux box. is install the ssh server. and just use 'winscp' | 17:41 |

| Dr_Willis | FirstSgt: Ive never had to deal with that personally. so not sure what all to check. | 18:18 |

| blakkheim | indian_munnda: your pentium4 is socket 478, that doesn't support PCIe. you want a PCIe slot on the board if you want a fast video card. | 18:32 |
| Iceman1 | when i try to update my repository,it says "could not download all repository indexes" | 18:32 |
| blakkheim | indian_munnda: so you want either socket 775,1156 or 1366 - depending on how much power you need | 18:33 |

| gehzumteufel | no scan results with iwlist | 18:39 |
| Thylith | could anyone hint me in the right direction of which version i should download and install for my laptop? it's an Intel Core 2 Duo proc, so should it be the "Intel x86"-version? | 18:39 |
| mickster04 | geh | 18:39 |
| mickster04 | gehzumteufel, i don't suppose u have another device there that can detect wireless? | 18:39 |
| erUSUL | Thylith: both 32 bit (Intel x86) and 64 bit (amd64) will work in your hardware | 18:40 |
| gehzumteufel | mickster04: I was working on this last week. I had 2 other machines that were totally different machines (macbook pro and a windows machine) that detected and hopped on no big deal | 18:40 |

| resno | does using squid for proxy and site caching make an noticeable difference in speed? | 18:40 |
| arghh2d2 | Thylith: depends on how if you have any hardware thats only supported in 9.10, otherwise i'd use 9.04 if i wer you | 18:40 |
| Iceman1 | erUSUL it says it could not resolve my old proxy server | 18:40 |
| Thylith | arghh2d2, yeah, i'm going for 9.04, just didn't know intel x86 or amd64 version | 18:41 |

| erUSUL | neur0tic: it does not use bugzilla for bug tracking | 18:46 |
| gehzumteufel | varies* | 18:46 |
| joaopinto | sburwood, changing one partition will not affect the other, assuming you have installed GRUB into the MBR | 18:46 |
| sburwood | 9.1O was unstable when I started | 18:46 |
| gehzumteufel | Hilikus: Which compression level do you use? 8? | 18:46 |
| neur0tic | erUSUL .. ok so where can i find the reported bug repository? | 18:46 |
| Hilikus | gehzumteufel: for ogg? 6 | 18:46 |
| erUSUL | Hilikus: i have an album here that has ~800kbps | 18:46 |

| sburwood | how do I see if GRUB is on MBR? | 18:47 |
| neur0tic | erUSUL: thanks | 18:47 |
| Hilikus | for FLAC i don't have anything yet, i think i'm gonna use the default (5 i think). i just need to know how much space i would need to have all my OGG collection in FLAC to see if i have enough space | 18:47 |
| mahen23 | sburwood: boot it lol | 18:47 |
| gehzumteufel | Use level 8 | 18:47 |
| Nalleman | Hi, I would like to have my "dropbox" folder under the "Places" menu. Is this possible? | 18:47 |
| TopKatz | Im here | 18:47 |
| Emanon | me too | 18:47 |
| darkweasel | me not! | 18:47 |
| erUSUL | Hilikus: it makes no sense to convert from ogg to flac or are you going to reencode frm cdaudio? | 18:48 |
| gehzumteufel | Also, the rate of compression at level 8 is between 25% and 50% smaller, but there is no way to nail that down, since it varies. | 18:48 |
| Hilikus | erUSUL: from cd | 18:48 |
| Hilikus | but that is if i find i have enough space, thus my question | 18:48 |
| erUSUL | Hilikus: ok; i have only a few flac albums as i said ~800-900kbps | 18:48 |
| Emanon | Isn't flac in general about the same size as wav? | 18:49 |
| erUSUL | Iceman1: did you managed to change proxy settings ? | 18:49 |
| Hilikus | Emanon: no, 50% smalle from what i've read | 18:49 |

| Iceman1 | erUSUL thank you very much its updating | 18:49 |
| Orion737 | anyone, is i686 the same as x86? | 18:49 |

| Hilikus | and i need to know how much space i would need using flac | 18:52 |
| gehzumteufel | Hilikus: so you can probably double that and figure that is approximately how much FLAC will use | 18:52 |
| sburwood | since 8.1O and 9.1O cohabite on the same computer | 18:52 |
| Hilikus | gehzumteufel: oh really? cool, thanks | 18:52 |
| gehzumteufel | :) | 18:52 |
| sburwood | thx for the other help, joaopinto | 18:53 |
| gehzumteufel | It may take up less, but I am being conservative | 18:53 |
| Hilikus | gehzumteufel: so ogg q4 is around 1:4? | 18:53 |
| Hilikus | sorry, q6 | 18:53 |
| gehzumteufel | Q6 is the highest iirc? | 18:53 |
| Hilikus | 1:4 to uncompressed | 18:53 |

| glen__ | Hi, I have removed the volume control from the panel at the top of the screen (ubuntu 9.10) and was wondering how to get it back. When I tight click on a panel and go 'Add To Panel', volume control is not in the list. Thanks | 19:08 |
| glen__ | *right | 19:08 |
| gehzumteufel | All right. So the card is either bad or it is the driver or something | 19:09 |
| grubi | grub 1.5 | 19:09 |
| Emanon | grubi can't login BluesKaj that doesn't help him hehe | 19:09 |
| BluesKaj | ok, no tty grubi ? | 19:09 |
| tsfranke | gehzumteufel: likely driver. especially if it's a broadcom chipset | 19:09 |

| tsfranke | gehzumteufel: if you're running a gui, use synaptic or apt-get and install the b43-fwcutter package. let it download and unpack all the firmwares as well | 19:10 |
| erUSUL | fixxxermet: in later versions you do not need to pass options tweaking modprobe | 19:10 |

| erUSUL | adamb_: dunno; maybe is the different workload? is a fileserver? | 19:14 |
| adamb_ | why is that normal? | 19:14 |
| adamb_ | its idle, doing nothing. | 19:14 |
| nacitar | adamb_: the kernel uses unused ram for cache, you can assume that space is free as far as you're concerned. | 19:14 |
| dare | adamb_: cached means it has been reserved for future use | 19:14 |
| tsfranke | gehzumteufel: try doing "sudo modprobe -r b43 && modprobe b43" | 19:14 |
| Subby | is there an easy way, to go over ssh and start a programm (e.g. mplayer) so that it shows up on a logged in xsession of he host? | 19:14 |
| rbehr | I am using evolution mail with Exchange 2003 ad I am having difficulty getting the global address list and my local contacts. Any suggestions??:-D | 19:15 |
| nacitar | adamb_: in fact, it generally slowly uses up all your free ram as cache, then releases it and does it again.... it's not really "used"... the kernel releases the cached ram to programs if it needs to | 19:15 |
| tsfranke | gehzumteufel: if that doesn't do it, i'd point to bad card | 19:15 |
| nacitar | adamb_: it's part of kernel design; as far as you care about it, add the buffers/cache value to "free". | 19:15 |
| lukaszT1 | Hi people I just solved my sound problem :D | 19:15 |
| grubi | puh, that grub prob kills me | 19:15 |

| BluesKaj | oh well , i'm outta here , this too annoying | 19:16 |
| dare | nacitar: do other major operating systems do this too? | 19:16 |
| Ubuntu | list | 19:16 |
| P_Kable | Hi, I have a space problem on a server, how can I know wich files are taking space please ? | 19:16 |
| kantlivelong | anyone? | 19:16 |
| lukaszT1 | This helped me http://www.unixmen.com/linux-tutorials/525-resolve-nosound-problem-on-ubuntu910-karmic-koala ;) | 19:16 |
| grubi | BluesKai: what u mean "if you moved /" ? | 19:16 |
| nacitar | adamb_: if you keep watching it, it will likely use up almost none in cache then slowly get back up to 95% | 19:16 |
| adamb_ | I know its in cache, i said it was, and the amount thats in cache seems fishy, I have php script dying for no reason as well. | 19:16 |
| nacitar | adamb_: and if you start programs eating up ram, you'll notice cache lessens as it gives it up. | 19:16 |

| adamb_ | severs* | 19:16 |
| erUSUL | adamb_: the oom killer? if that's the case then maybe there is a real problem | 19:16 |

| Pici | JaneDoe: General Linux distro questions are better asked in ##linux, if you have an Ubuntu question, then by all means ask here. | 19:17 |
| erUSUL | adamb_: so maybe the php script is killed by the kernel? | 19:17 |
| nacitar | dare: I was like "wtf.. it eats up all my memory then releases it? what in the world would cause that?" and then some kernel expert explained what I just paraphrased. | 19:17 |

| trism | Subby: yes, a bit of a pain in karmic though with the new location of Xauthority, either echo $XAUTHORITY on the host and export that variable in the ssh session, or extract it back to .Xauthority on the host with xauth extract $HOME/.Xauthority $DISPLAY; then through ssh you can do a DISPLAY=:0.0 mplayer; or whatever you want (make sure you have the same $DISPLAY as on the host, it is probably :0.0 though) | 19:18 |

| blakkheim | grubi: boot from a livecd, open terminal, type sudo grub | 19:21 |
| Jamed | grubi: which version of ubuntu are you using? | 19:21 |
| trism | Subby: if you are planning on doing it alot, you can add xterm -e bash -c "xauth extract $HOME/.Xauthority $DISPLAY"; to your Startup Applications, and then every time you log in, Xauthority will be copied back to .Xauthority and you can just use DISPLAY=:0.0 command; to run commands through ssh (that's what I did anyway) | 19:22 |
| nacitar | Subby: I couldn't get it to work with just setting $DISPLAY via ssh, in the past... screening fixed it.... the other guys might have a more elegant solution though. :) | 19:22 |

| arghh2d2 | planktum_: the error message seems like casper is already installed and you cant overwrite a /usr/share/... file because casper uses it...i'm probly wrong but you might wanna check if you already have a version of casper | 19:37 |

| Emanon | four months is a lifetime online | 19:40 |

| computa_mike | Guys - Any ideas why Ubuntu Customization Kit won't recognise an ISO file? when I pick an ISO it tells me that it isn't an ISO file... but it is ... | 19:40 |
| icqn | running "sudo service samba status" reports that * nmbd is not running | 19:40 |
| Emanon | is it a ubuntu iso computa_mike | 19:41 |
| ukev | ssam, the only thing you need in the kernel to use GPT is CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION=y and I have that one | 19:41 |
| diverse_izzue | erUSUL, thanks, I'll try that! | 19:41 |
| ssam | ukev, ubuntu has CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION=y | 19:41 |
| nescius | debut: device is busy maybe? | 19:41 |
| Emanon | uck and usb-creator only recognize ubuntu based distros i think | 19:41 |
| * blackgrave_1_ brb | 19:41 | |
| computa_mike | Emanon: yes - it's a 9.10 desktop iso | 19:41 |
| Emanon | hmm no idea then | 19:41 |
| planktum_ | so arghh2d2, im really puzzled, i tried to remove initramfs-tools but it wanted to remove half of my system | 19:41 |
| Emanon | gosh my help to no help ratio isn't very good today | 19:41 |
| ssam | ukev, strange. dont think i can help any further | 19:41 |
| ukev | ssam, the only last remaining point I have is: | 19:42 |
| debit | nescius something like that. It says to reboot to read the changes | 19:42 |
| ukev | parted /dev/sdb print | 19:42 |
| ukev | Error: Can't have a partition outside the disk! | 19:42 |
| nescius | debut: do you have shell at that point? do fuser /dev/sd<tab> | 19:42 |
| arghh2d2 | planktum_: what are you ultimately trying to accomplish? | 19:42 |
| ssam | ukev, if you want to reformat the disk i recommend gparted. that lets you choose partition table type | 19:42 |
| icqn | ...so i restart this manually every time, is it a known regression? | 19:42 |
| nescius | ok, without exact information i am afraid i wont be able to help you | 19:43 |
| debit | nescius it just crashes at that piont. It's hard to get the errors. | 19:43 |
| planktum_ | arghh2d2, im following a guide to make a liveCD out of my hardrive: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=688872 | 19:43 |
| ukev | ssam, yes but I cannot reformat the disk, because I have no disk where I could store the data in the meantime... :( | 19:43 |
| planktum_ | arghh2d2, im already half the way | 19:43 |
| debit | nescius I've tried gparted on the drive. It also crashes | 19:43 |
| arghh2d2 | ok planktum_, good luck | 19:43 |
| nescius | debit: do you have some system on it already? | 19:43 |
| ssam | ukev, that mean you also have no back of that data? | 19:43 |
| planktum_ | arghh2d2, uhmm that doesnt sound too promising | 19:44 |
| debit | nescius Not anymore. I've repartitioned and tried to reformat 20 times | 19:44 |
| mbz | I want to buy about 40 amount of Share the spirit kit, ubuntu store :'( | 19:44 |
| ukev | ssam, this disk is my backup of the data with the history, I don't want to kill this data until I have to.. | 19:44 |

| erUSUL | pirx: ahh ok; no problem | 19:46 |
| nescius | debit: then do the fuser on that disk before you start formating, to find out what is using the disk | 19:46 |
| _nick_ | debit: try partitioning w/ gparted maybe it will work? | 19:47 |

| losha | kantlivelong: hmm. you can partition manually, but If it won't even list the drive, I don't think you can get through the install. Which release is this? | 19:54 |

| RiotingPacifist | Alan502: tbh i have no idea, have you tried sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh | 20:45 |

| RiotingPacifist | Alan502: that sounds right, try closing kaffine and trying again | 20:53 |
| Mike_lifeguard | ph33r: you hit the key combo and your windows should minimize | 20:53 |
| Alan502 | probably reinstalling? did you installed the one on the repositories? tobiasz | 20:54 |
| ph33r | Mike_lifeguard: yeah got it, was just wondering if I could do the aero peek thing hehe | 20:54 |

| guntbert | !webmin | opticon but | 21:20 |

| losha | ActionParsnip: I didn't think uid was an option for ext3. It's not in my man page. RediXe: I think you either need to make user the owner of all the files/directories, or put the user into a group and give the filesystem g=rwx and make it all belong to group' | 21:26 |

| Xodiac | ActionParsnip: how do i do that | 22:10 |
| vsMS | udev is tricky. Someone here who knows how to add idProduct and idVendor to RUN script in a custom udev rule? | 22:10 |

| gehzumteufel | hmm | 22:11 |
| Xodiac | erUSUL: uh i went to the permissions tab and it says im not the owner so i cant change the options | 22:11 |
| erUSUL | gehzumteufel: in your machine. « aptitude search libsqlite » | 22:11 |
| ActionParsnip | Xodiac: seems to be around the line 257 mark | 22:11 |
| Xodiac | ActionParsnip: thank you what will the option say and what do i change it oo | 22:12 |
| erUSUL | Xodiac: then you first have to change the owner ... but for a proper solution follow ActionParsnip advice | 22:12 |
| minderaser | I'm having a very frustrating wireless problem that I'm hoping someone can help me with. At home, my connection is SLOW, but other places it zips along just fine. Other laptops here (Windows) fly, but even when I boot this one to XP it's still a dog. What should I be looking at? | 22:12 |

| leeping2007 | Hi there, when I try to run a command "bar" on the computer "foo" via "ssh foo bar", I get "command not found". However, the command is clearly inside my PATH environment variable. What's wrong? How do I see my environment when I try to run something remotely? | 22:13 |
| Xodiac | erUSUL: after i do that option it will automatically unlock the file right | 22:14 |
| ActionParsnip | Xodiac: just uncomment the line, read the lines above and you can set suitable access | 22:14 |
| ActionParsnip | Vbitz: sure | 22:14 |
| Xodiac | ActionParsnip: okay thanks | 22:14 |
| HardDisk | Vbitz if windows vista works in vbox, sure can ubuntu :) | 22:14 |
| Vbitz | any problems i may run into | 22:14 |
| Vbitz | like networking | 22:14 |
| ActionParsnip | Xodiac: its all in that file, the gui is nice but ultimately if you want advanced options like that its fairly useless | 22:15 |
| Vbitz | it is using a PCnet-Fast III Driver running through nat | 22:15 |
| ActionParsnip | Vbitz: thats all down to the config of the virtualbox | 22:15 |
| Xodiac | ActionParsnip: after i make changes to the samba conf then it will unlock the files right | 22:16 |
| ActionParsnip | Vbitz: you can bridge the virtual NIC to make it appear on the LAN, you can keep it to itself on its own virtual LAN | 22:16 |
| Vbitz | will ubuntu mind if i change that after it is setup | 22:16 |
| ActionParsnip | Xodiac: they will have different access so yes, you will need to run: sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart to get the file reread | 22:16 |
| ActionParsnip | Vbitz: not at all, it uses DHCP by default and will get what its given | 22:17 |
| Xodiac | ActionParsnip: okay thanks man | 22:17 |
| Vbitz | how does it detect what type of computer i am using | 22:17 |
| porridj | hey everyone, curious, is there some kind of media player that finds and removes dupicates? | 22:18 |
| Vbitz | even through a hypervisor it knows i am using a laptop | 22:18 |
| simplexi1 | Vbitz: yes its work, i run buntu in vbox now, and if you change your guest network card after buntu install it will be eth1, assuming that you booted once into system with old "card" | 22:18 |
| ubuntu | This computer I'm on the person forgot there password - I'm booted to a Ubuntu boot cd - Is there any way to reset the password using a Livecd ? ? | 22:18 |
| ActionParsnip | Vbitz: not sure, i'd ask in #vbox | 22:18 |
| ActionParsnip | Vbitz: why would it matter? | 22:18 |
| simplexi1 | Vbitz: you can rename "new" card to eth0 in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules | 22:19 |
| ActionParsnip | ubuntu: you can boot to recovery root console and reset the password there | 22:19 |

| ActionParsnip | cptblood: we arent using putty right now, try telnet to the socket | 22:37 |

| ActionParsnip | cptblood: if all the debian systems can connect ok and win7 cant then its a putty issue or win7 being garbage | 22:41 |
| cptblood | ActionParsnip: i made a livedvd from a diff. install, it might also have this problem, but i never reflected much over it | 22:41 |
| MatBoy | jonzbcc: itś the same as what shows it after the first login | 22:42 |

| nwillems | I have a problem with my laptop(Lenovo S10e, Intel GMA950). When pluggin in my external monitor(LG L1952TQ) through VGA, both my main laptop screen and the external goes "blank", they stay on and I'm able to see my mouse on screen but the cursor is in frozen with "wait"-icon, I'm not able to restart the X server or switching to a non-GUI terminal. Is this a common problem with netbooks or is it something fixable? | 22:53 |
| Redache | mrec_: Yeah it does | 22:53 |
| CShadowRun | jonzbcc: well, ok :) | 22:53 |
| Redache | jmyers: Does it even attempt to print something? i.e. does it sound like it's starting up? | 22:53 |
| jonzbcc | CShadowRun: well, maybe it is a bug, haha.. I didn't think of that, this is a brand new computer, and shouldn't experience the same issues I"ve had before. Good call | 22:53 |

| ActionParsnip | jmyers: http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/models/laserjet/hp_laserjet_4100_mfp.html | 22:57 |
| spiffman | Akiraa: you can try fluxbuntu LTS too | 22:57 |
| alinuxfan | Akiraa, or use the lubuntu-desktop package and use LXDE | 22:57 |
| ae86-drifter | n8tuser, what do you mean? | 22:57 |
| jmyers | ActionParsnip: nice, I knew that worked in terminal. Didn't realize it did in Pidgin | 22:57 |
| Redache | Akiraa: or try Crunchbang, which isn't officialy supported, but is a very lightweight distro | 22:58 |
| ActionParsnip | jmyers: for scanning: http://hplipopensource.com/node/302 | 22:58 |
| jmyers | Redache & ActionParsnip: I have both of your links up now. Will comb them for solutions before any more pestering. Thanks! | 22:58 |
| n8tuser | ae86-drifter-> no guarantee that wifi must be constantly connected <-- no guarantee | 22:59 |
| ActionParsnip | Akiraa: Lubuntu is on the way,Xubuntu is light, You can install a light DE on ubuntu to make it slicker like LXDE or fluxbox | 22:59 |
| alinuxfan | hey sapper, you in the army? | 22:59 |

| ActionParsnip | ae86-drifter: copy some of the text from the terminal, then paste to a web serch engine and see what results you get | 23:11 |
| Sanne | spiffman: I did that, it doesn't show the new disk, only my old one (/dev/sda) | 23:11 |
| ikonia | Guest52139: you may want to try #bash - that's shell scripting, there are also guides explaining how shell works on tldp.org | 23:11 |
| Guest52139 | i don't see anything on the screen ..just a blank screen .. it supposed to return the value of 32 right? | 23:11 |
| Sanne | ikonia: I don't want to mount it yet, only "see" the device | 23:11 |
| ikonia | Sanne: fdisk -l will show the disk, but of course no partitions | 23:12 |
| Guest52139 | ikonia .. so this channel is a bit of inappropriate to ask right b/c it deals more in scripting right? | 23:12 |
| ikonia | Sanne: or gui tools like gparted | 23:12 |
| ae86-drifter | i get DMA failed to stop in 10ms | 23:12 |

| mesutcimeken | no sound | 23:13 |
| Sanne | ikonia: yes, and I saw it in the bios. I needed to change the boot device to the old one, maybe I somehow deactivated the new disk in the proccess. Might that be a possible reason? | 23:13 |
| mesutcimeken | icheck the web site | 23:13 |
| Sanne | spiffman: I have yet to test with gparted, thanks for the hint. | 23:13 |

| ikonia | EoL{s}: is this a multiboot system ? | 23:22 |
| mataks | help please.. im using karmic koala and i want to remove the old kernels on my boot list but i don't know where i can find the grub2.. newbie here | 23:23 |
| ikonia | VeGeTa-X ae86-drifter if you want to chat about your hardware may be better to take it to #ubuntu-offtopic | 23:23 |
| ae86-drifter | EoL{s}, type locate grub and look for a nonf or cfg file then edit it | 23:23 |
| epinky | EoL{s}: check on /etc/default/grub | 23:23 |
| spiffman | ae86-drifter, any luck with getting atheros to work well on amd64 yet? i have the same issue, that's why i'm constantly restarting my network connections | 23:23 |
| ikonia | mataks: open the pacakge manager (synaptic) search for linux kernel and remove the uneeded kernels, it will do the rest | 23:23 |
| mesutcimeken | hi folks | 23:23 |
| mataks | ikonia, ok thanks i'll try. | 23:24 |
| jsharpe | dj | 23:24 |
| jsharpe | ugh | 23:24 |
| trism | EoL{s}: add (or remove the comment from) GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 in /etc/default/grub, then run sudo update-grub; | 23:24 |
| ae86-drifter | spiffman, i am still trying, i just upgraded kernel to backports repo latest one and hasnt dropped out yet... but im waiting | 23:24 |
| jsharpe | I can't get dual monitors working | 23:24 |
| mesutcimeken | i have sound problem and this page goes too fast for me | 23:24 |
| ActionParsnip | EoL{s}: you set that in /etc/default/grub | 23:24 |
| computerex | Can someone please tell me why the heck "find /boot/grub/stage1" gives me error 15 when I know that grub is installed in hd5? | 23:24 |
| mesutcimeken | is anybody there whocan help me ? | 23:24 |
| alinuxfan | mataks, there is a wiki page for how to edit grub2, i had to make custom menus due to ACPI issues | 23:24 |
| ActionParsnip | ae86-drifter: editting the file is pointless, next time update-grub is ran the change will be lost | 23:25 |
| epinky | mesutcimeken: déjà vu | 23:25 |
| alinuxfan | mesutcimeken, say your question all at once and see if someone replies...what kind of sound problem are you having? | 23:25 |
| jmyers | Anyone have an HP All in One printer they've managed to get working in Koala? | 23:25 |
| EoL{s} | ActionParsnip: Yeah, I just found a "grub" file in my /etc/default/ | 23:25 |
| mesutcimeken | no sound | 23:25 |
| mesutcimeken | in my laptop | 23:25 |
| ae86-drifter | ActionParsnip, sorry, i use grub1.5, it must be diffeernt? | 23:25 |
| gigatar | computerex: are you using hd0,4 or hd0,5 | 23:26 |
| ActionParsnip | ae86-drifter: yes grub2 uses scripts and gives extra control and functionality | 23:26 |
| mataks | what's the command to check what version of linux kernel im using? | 23:26 |
| gigatar | uname -r | 23:26 |
| spiffman | uname -r | 23:26 |
| spiffman | :P beat me to it | 23:26 |
| mesutcimeken | sorry ? | 23:26 |

I downloaded the nvidia drivers it recomended in a dialog box. and installed some X Server thing. I restarted yadd yadda. Now when I start non of the settings are ever saved. I can't get my other monitor to be used as a secondary monitor. It just does not work | 23:27 |

| EoL{s} | ActionParsnip: Thanks for the help. I think I've found what I need/ | 23:27 |
| mesutcimeken | yes i did | 23:27 |

| mesutcimeken | yesterday ichecked all sites for this | 23:28 |
| ActionParsnip | flosch0815: gksudo for gui apps duder | 23:28 |
| erty | hi what is the oem editiopn. how it different to the main edition of ubuntu | 23:28 |
| flosch0815 | and then 'save to x config-file' .. or soimiliar | 23:28 |
| mesutcimeken | but still no sound | 23:28 |
| gigatar | jsharpe: also ensure you write the changes to Xconfig | 23:28 |
| flosch0815 | ok, sorry, is used it that way | 23:28 |

| jsharpe | that's what the baloon says | 23:28 |
| alinuxfan | mesutcimeken, when you go to the terminal and type in 'alsa-mixer' are any of the outputs muted? | 23:28 |

| biabia | 2 days to upgrade duron 750 from 8.04->8.10->9.04->9.10 but it went great. everything seems in order | 23:29 |
| Rockmasterb | ikonia: Why do you refer any questions regarding developing applications or help doing so as "<ikonia> shakaran1: please don't advertise in this channel" ? | 23:29 |
| mesutcimeken | just a second | 23:29 |
| crc32 | I can't disable gdm sysv-rc-conf says gdm is already disabled. | 23:29 |
| erty | alinuxfan its alsamixer | 23:29 |
| selected_fx | can any body hellp me to install neatgear usb wireless driver | 23:29 |
| ActionParsnip | biabia: why not just clean install 9.10. Faster | 23:29 |
| mesutcimeken | no no muted | 23:29 |
| ikonia | Rockmasterb: because this is ubuntu support, not an application translation channel | 23:29 |
| Rockmasterb | ikonia: Dont do that. | 23:29 |
| mesutcimeken | all open | 23:29 |
| Rockmasterb | ikonia: Dont do that. | 23:29 |
| gigatar | computerex: can you pastebin your grub.conf file | 23:30 |
| biabia | ActionParsnip: i didnt want to chance losing any of my data | 23:30 |
| ActionParsnip | selected_fx: sudo lshw -C network will get you started, use the product line | 23:30 |
| ikonia | Rockmasterb: that is the channels policy, if you would like to discuss it please join #ubuntu-ops | 23:30 |
| ActionParsnip | biabia: use you backups | 23:30 |
| erty | hello any explanatiopns would be of help atm | 23:30 |

| erty | probably simple to you but i need this asap | 23:30 |
| mrx0r | when I watch movies I sometimes get a horiziontel line that quickly shows up and then disapers. The video is smooth and the audio is great it's just this annoying line that keeps appering from time to time. If the camera in the video is still this never happends but it happends when alot of stuff is chaning like when the camera in the video is filming from left to right (and vice versa). Any known solution? I am using gnom | 23:30 |
| flosch0815 | jsharpe: Balloon? never saw that.. you must explicitly save that in your 'xserver display configuration' submenu | 23:30 |

| ActionParsnip | crc32: if you upgraded directly from 8.04 to 9.10 you will most likely get a tonne of problems | 23:35 |

| karma_police | i have startup manager but i don't see an option to edit | 23:35 |

| graingert | erty for dell mainly | 23:35 |
| IdleOne | erty: OEM installation install ubuntu but does not ask you to set a user name or password. On the first boot the user will be asked to provide that information | 23:35 |
| ActionParsnip | crc32: it never was | 23:35 |
| crc32 | ActionParsnip: I did a clean install and I don't recognize anything | 23:35 |

| biabia | ibus, scim etc | 23:37 |
| crc32 | ActionParsnip: One of the selling points of grub was you could edit the config and just reboot with out any suproses. IE running lilo after editing the confs confused a lot of users. | 23:37 |
| gigatar | computerex: can you run "sudo vol_id --uuid /dev/hda5 or sda5" | 23:37 |
| ae86-drifter | open synaptic and install brother-printers-common | 23:37 |
| graingert | luismendes, this is a silly idea | 23:37 |
| Locksterc | icoonia | 23:37 |
| graingert | luismendes, why would you want this? you would get massive feedback | 23:37 |
| ae86-drifter | timbojimbo, goto brother.com.au and see if theres a ppd file available. | 23:37 |
| luismendes | graingert, still I'd like to do it | 23:37 |
| graingert | luismendes, in pulseaudio you can loop it round | 23:37 |
| luismendes | graingert, how is it done? | 23:37 |

| lostinspace_46 | When using my hplip manager it says it can't print jpegs. It says it only prints .g3, .g4, .py, .bmp, .cpp, and .cxx files?? Is there some way to correct this? | 23:45 |
| ga_sk8er | im trying the command that someone gave me & its finding drivers | 23:45 |

| karma_police | can anyone tell me what the difference is between memtest x86+ and memtest x86+ serial console? | 23:45 |
| jmyers | ActionParsnip: Redache: I was nosing around in the settings, and it was trying to print the documents from the color cart ONLY. Color cart is empty, and has been for ages, because I don't print in color! | 23:45 |
| ActionParsnip | !best | epsil0n | 23:45 |
| ubottu | epsil0n: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 23:45 |
| magmarules | k ty =) | 23:45 |
| luismendes | graingert, ok, but how can I hear my own mic? it looks the same | 23:45 |
| ikonia | epsil0n: this is ubuntu support - it was explained to you in ##linux a few minutes ago | 23:45 |
| computerex | can someone tell me how to fix the grub here: http://pastebin.com/m71e0a5c3 | 23:45 |
| ikonia | AOC: it's that simple, I've just given you the parambeters | 23:45 |
| ikonia | AOC: sshd:x:112:65534::/var/run/sshd:/usr/sbin/nologin | 23:45 |
| jmyers | ActionParsnip: Redache: So I changed it to 600dpi greyscale from black cart, and printing like mad now. | 23:45 |
| Guiri | Can someone find out why this isn't working? http://pastebin.ca/1715053 | 23:45 |
| graingert | luismendes, mess about with your imput and output streams | 23:45 |
| ActionParsnip | jmyers: nice one | 23:46 |

| EastDallasMatt | ga_sk8er: Why don't you go to System>Adminstration>Hardware Drivers and see what version of Nvidia accelerated graphics driver is activated. Forget about the command line for now | 23:46 |
| crc32 | So I rememer it used to be boot into run level 3 to avoid X11 then it was disable GDM since debian doesn't follow the runlevel standard. Now in 9.10 how do you boot into console? | 23:46 |
| ikonia | mesutcimeken: stop flooding the channel use www.pastebin.com | 23:46 |
| jmyers | WHY, would anyone in their right minds print a b/w doc with the color cart? | 23:46 |
| graingert | luismendes, I can only point you in the right direction for your crankpot schemes | 23:46 |
| alinuxfan | mesutcimeken, if you right click on the sound device in your taskbar and go to the hardware tab, what kind of device does it say in the dropdown box? | 23:46 |
| Guiri | Essentially I want it to click http://cp.shoutcheap.com/cast/client/index.php?page=control&action=restart | 23:46 |
| klappi | karma_police: thats a special device that i think you dont own | 23:46 |
| Guiri | But I'm not sure how to script Curl | 23:46 |
| ActionParsnip | epsil0n: there is no best, its an opinio, and an opinion ONLY | 23:46 |
| alinuxfan | mesutcimeken, if it is on analog change to digital and vice versa...then see if sound works | 23:47 |
| ActionParsnip | !firewall | epsil0n | 23:47 |
| ubottu | epsil0n: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist | 23:47 |
| epsil0n | ActionParsnip: firewalls are comparable, for example i know th best for windows due to some test done on various sites. | 23:47 |
| karma_police | is there a way to remove that from the startup grub? i have two memtests | 23:47 |
| mesutcimeken | what is going on ? paste is forbidden is here ? | 23:47 |
| ActionParsnip | epsil0n: only compared to a users needs, not all users needs are exactly identical so tere is no best | 23:47 |
| ikonia | epsil0n: youve just had this conversation in ##linux and you go the info | 23:47 |
| ikonia | epsil0n: this channel is for ubuntu support | 23:47 |
| ae86-drifter | !list | 23:47 |
| 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 » | 23:47 |
| ActionParsnip | epsil0n: this is the same with ANY app and ANYTHING in life, for some people, even living isn't "best" | 23:48 |
| trism | karma_police: sudo chmod -x /etc/grub.d/20_memtest86+; sudo update-grub; that will remove memtest from the menu | 23:48 |
| mesutcimeken | ok sorry | 23:48 |
| mesutcimeken | what can i do now for my sound problem ? | 23:48 |
| karma_police | ty | 23:48 |
| ga_sk8er | its still searching for available drivers | 23:48 |
| crc32 | Any one know how to disable GDM in ubuntu? | 23:48 |
| ga_sk8er | how long does it take to find it? | 23:49 |
| crc32 | 9.10? | 23:49 |
| luismendes | hello everyone! how can I configure pulseaudio so that I can hear my own mic? thanks! | 23:49 |
| klappi | epsil0n: thats like asking "what is better a knife or a fork?" | 23:49 |
| epsil0n | ActionParsnip: i didnt know linux has builtin firewall. Ok i need something secure and simple.. i use kde, guardog is a frontent to iptables? people told me about ipkungfu too | 23:49 |
| alinuxfan | mesutcimeken, did you go to sound preferences and see what the hardware is showing in the dropdown box? | 23:49 |
| epsil0n | klappi: forget about best, my mistake | 23:49 |
| JOKERinc | i just downloaded ubuntu... and it sucks monkey balls lol | 23:49 |
| IdleOne | !language | JOKERinc | 23:49 |
| ubottu | JOKERinc: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 23:49 |
| ActionParsnip | epsil0n: guarddog is a KDE interface to iptables, its not the best nor is it the worst | 23:49 |
| alinuxfan | mesutcimeken, my profile setting is: Analog Stereo Duples | 23:49 |
| ikonia | JOKERinc: then don't use it. That language is uncalled for in this channel and not welcome | 23:49 |
| JOKERinc | how... is this better then xp :| | 23:49 |
| BouncingBall | JOKERinc, lul | 23:49 |
| mesutcimeken | i did and this dash is empty | 23:49 |
| karma_police | thanx trism. i think u helped me last time | 23:49 |
| BouncingBall | JOKERinc, install Gentoo | 23:49 |
| Guiri | Anyone on curl? I'm using latest ubuntu | 23:49 |
| EastDallasMatt | ga_sk8er: Let me know when it's done. | 23:49 |
| ae86-drifter | i sudo chmod 777 /var/www, so i can remotely sshfs into my server and edit files, i understand that this is a security issue, should i enable root login through ssh on the server or is there a more secure way? | 23:49 |
| mesutcimeken | no hardware overthere | 23:50 |
| jMyles_ | Is there a way to synchronize audio / music between two computers | 23:50 |
| JOKERinc | whats that? | 23:50 |
| epsil0n | ActionParsnip: ok perfect then, i will use that. btw is iptables enabled my default? is it running now? | 23:50 |
| ActionParsnip | JOKERinc: nobody is forcing you to use it, its you using it | 23:50 |
| EastDallasMatt | jMyles_: rsync | 23:50 |
| karma_police | i like ubuntu a lot | 23:50 |
| JOKERinc | i know, im trying to figure it out... patience right ;) | 23:50 |
| jMyles_ | EastDallasMatt: Thank you - I'll check it out | 23:50 |
| ActionParsnip | epsil0n: yes, just unconfigured. if you use a router then i personally wouldnt bother, your call | 23:50 |
| jMyles_ | karma_police: good to hear - what do you like best so far? | 23:50 |
| epsil0n | karma_police: try chakra linux | 23:50 |
| karma_police | i'm new to linux... been ubunting since october | 23:50 |
| EastDallasMatt | !info rsync | 23:50 |
| ubottu | rsync (source: rsync): fast remote file copy program (like rcp). In component main, is standard. Version 3.0.6-1ubuntu1 (karmic), package size 341 kB, installed size 704 kB | 23:50 |
| BouncingBall | JOKERinc, haha i thought you were actually informed about linux, if ubuntu is hard then you have lots to learn | 23:51 |
| epsil0n | ActionParsnip: k thanks | 23:51 |
| klappi | karma_police: good move | 23:51 |
| epsil0n | ikonia: thanks for your time, ;D ... again | 23:51 |
| spiffman | jMyles_ check out Pulseaudio's streaming audio | 23:51 |
| karma_police | it makes use of hardware resources a lot better than windoze does | 23:51 |
| jMyles_ | EastDallasMatt: Sorry, that's not what I meant - I want to sync the audio between two computers, like "party mode" - somewhat similar to Abelton or what the SquakBox does | 23:51 |
| spiffman | jMyles_ oh wait nvm | 23:51 |
| ae86-drifter | has anyone had any issues with playstation media server running on ubuntu? | 23:51 |
| JOKERinc | well, its the only os i could get installed on here for now, but i kind of like it. im just used to windows... someone told me i needed to not be a "Windows End User" lol | 23:51 |
| jMyles_ | spiffman: oh? | 23:51 |
| gehzumteufel | Anyone here ever setup FUPPES? | 23:51 |
| ae86-drifter | i have setup fuppes | 23:51 |
| spiffman | jMyles_ if you want to connect to a server playing audio, pulseaudio can do that | 23:52 |
| JOKERinc | i take it, like every os, it takes getting use to... | 23:52 |
| klappi | karma_police: i started using linux in 1996 it was a whole new world | 23:52 |
| spiffman | jMyles_ and then stream the audio locally | 23:52 |
| jMyles_ | spiffman: Mm hmm - the key though is getting the music in sync | 23:52 |
| crc32 | How do I disable GDM at bootup. I want to boot into the console. | 23:52 |
| jmyers | ActionParsnip & Redache: Thanks for the assist. I feel like a tool that it was just a setting. I still don't understand why anyone would want to print B&W from their color cart. But lesson learned, and gained some nice terminal / cups / forum crawling experience! I'm sure I'll be back shortly begging for help getting my ati drivers going. lo | 23:52 |
| ae86-drifter | gehzumteufel, use ps3 media server instead | 23:52 |
| crc32 | o 9.10 | 23:52 |
| ActionParsnip | JOKERinc: exactly | 23:52 |
| karma_police | i bet it was back then.. no gui back then right? | 23:52 |
| spiffman | jMyles_ yea you'll probably get a delay | 23:52 |
| mesutcimeken | now should i install some audio program to fix my sound problem ? | 23:52 |
| ActionParsnip | jmyers: well you got burned, but learned so its cool | 23:52 |
| alinuxfan | mesutcimeken, you have no hardware in the hardware tab? then maybe the module isnt being loaded | 23:52 |
| BouncingBall | JOKERinc, no seriously, install Arch Linux, using ubuntu after that will not only seem easier it'll seem stupid | 23:52 |
| gehzumteufel | ae86-drifter: Cool I will check it out | 23:52 |
| mesutcimeken | yees | 23:53 |
| JOKERinc | im just used to windows programs. it would be find if i could get into yahoo's voice chat, but im clueless on where to start. | 23:53 |
| jmyers | ActionParsnip: I always hated HP products too. :P | 23:53 |
| ActionParsnip | jmyers: some printers can make composite black | 23:53 |
| EastDallasMatt | jMyles_: I have my music share mounted to the same mount point on all my computers and use the same MySQL DB for Amarok on all machines | 23:53 |
| JOKERinc | fine* | 23:53 |
| ikonia | BouncingBall:this is ubuntu support channel, not push other distros | 23:53 |
| ActionParsnip | jmyers: hp loves linux | 23:53 |
| jmyers | ActionParsnip: I bought this cuz it was $30 | 23:53 |
| EastDallasMatt | ga_sk8er: any luck? | 23:53 |
| ae86-drifter | brother needs color ink to print black! bastards | 23:53 |
| mesutcimeken | how can i load it ? | 23:53 |
| gehzumteufel | ae86-drifter: Do any debs exist that you are aware of? | 23:53 |
| karma_police | only complaints i have is flash issues.. its more on adobe's side than it is linux i'm sure tho | 23:53 |
| EastDallasMatt | ga_sk8er: any luck? | 23:53 |
| ActionParsnip | JOKERinc: gyache will allow that | 23:53 |
| ga_sk8er | still searching for available drivers | 23:54 |
| ae86-drifter | u can get around that by getting a permanent marker and write over the cartridge where the sensor goes | 23:54 |
| ga_sk8er | slow piece of crap lol | 23:54 |
| jmyers | ActionParsnip: Well, I wiped windows for Ubuntu, so if linux loves HP, and vice versa, then I guess I'll soon become a fan instead of a hater. | 23:54 |
| crc32 | How does one preven ubuntu from going into GDM at bootup? | 23:54 |
| JOKERinc | is that in the software center or something? lol, like i said, i just installed and am new, sry if im a bug | 23:54 |
| EastDallasMatt | ga_sk8er: still going?!?! :-s | 23:54 |
| ae86-drifter | gehzumteufel, its java based i think, you just run the script and it loads up, no installation needed, just dependencies | 23:54 |
| ga_sk8er | yes | 23:54 |
| xtjacob | Hello everyone! I've had a problem that is starting to get on my nerves. Ever since I upgraded to version 9.10 my Internet seems to be moving at a crawl. Websites takes forever to load and updates are slow. When I look at update manager it moves anywhere from 1 to 100% and sometimes I have to reconnect and its faster then it slows down again. | 23:54 |
| alinuxfan | mesutcimeken, have you seen this post: v | 23:54 |
| alinuxfan | mesutcimeken, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=452992 | 23:54 |
| mesutcimeken | but first days it was working , there was no sound problem then suddenly happened | 23:54 |
| ae86-drifter | gehzumteufel, search for it, goto the official website, its REALLY easy | 23:55 |
| gehzumteufel | ae86-drifter: Ah cool. Thanks for the suggestion. Although, does it ONLY stream to PS3? | 23:55 |
| karma_police | sounds like a lan issue | 23:55 |
| gehzumteufel | Yeah I just downloaded it | 23:55 |
| ga_sk8er | i just wonder if i should re-install ubuntu from fresh | 23:55 |
| computerex | Can someone please tell me how to reinstall grub? | 23:55 |
| jMyles_ | EastDallasMatt, et. al.: I'm sorry, I guess I did not explain properly. I don't want to share my music files across a network -that's easy. I want to synchronize the audio, so that I can have computers in different rooms playing the same audio with it in sync. This is obviously difficult due to latency, but several (non-linux) solutions now exist. I wonder if a linux solution exists or is forthcoming. | 23:55 |
| ae86-drifter | gehzumteufel, i use it to stream to my xbox 360 | 23:55 |
| xtjacob | Also i'm on wirelss | 23:55 |
| ActionParsnip | JOKERinc: please use my nick if you are addressing someone, see how my text to you highlights, tats not an accident | 23:55 |
| gehzumteufel | That was the exact reason I asked. Thanks ae86-drifter! :) | 23:55 |
| EastDallasMatt | jMyles...ohhhhhh | 23:56 |
| mesutcimeken | thanks | 23:56 |
| alinuxfan | mesutcimeken, oooh...so what changed between the time it was working and the time it wasnt? did you install any new programs or remove any? | 23:56 |
| karma_police | i had to blacklist my wireless usb adapter when i first downloaded 9.10 | 23:56 |
| mesutcimeken | just give me a second to check it | 23:56 |
| JOKERinc | ActionParsnip like that? | 23:56 |
| jmyers | I guess before I bail, I could ask in here. Is there a simple way to find out what ATI chipsest my video card has? I THOUGHT it was a 4850, but when I install those drivers Gnome no longer loads. | 23:56 |
| karma_police | brb | 23:56 |
