[00:04] Has anyone else had problems with it not allowing more than 1 program to access it? [00:04] So is sysv-rc-conf no longer used by ubuntu? Whats the correct way to disable GDM? This is really confusing me How do I control what starts and stops services? [00:04] hello guys, how can I hear my own microphone in ubuntu 9.10? (i need it because I've connected my electric piano in the mic entrance, so that I can record stuff from it) thanks [00:04] !upstart [00:04] Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ [00:05] jmyers: /usr/bin/lspci -v [00:05] luismendes: Have you checked the settings in alsamixer? [00:05] What steps are needed to remobe swap partition and use it for sth else? just delete the entry in fstab? [00:05] soreau, yes, I can record the sound, sound input levels go high and all, but I cant hear it [00:05] remove* [00:05] EastDallas: Hot diggity dog. That did it. I DO have a 4850. :/ [00:05] SO is upstart a new Linux standard or is this just Ubuntu breaking a working wheel? Since when is init.d being replaced? [00:06] luismendes: Well you need a full duplex sound card to play back and hear/record input at the same time [00:06] ga_sk8er: any luck yet [00:06] its trying to pull in now [00:06] soreau, it is configured as duplex in sound options [00:07] So now comes the challenge of finding the drivers for my card in 64 bit. :P [00:07] luismendes: Yes but there are half duplex and full duplex cards. Your hw might not be capable of doing it [00:07] crc32: init is simply too old and to sequential [00:07] how do I play .3gp files with samr audio codec? I can't get the audio codec to work. I have tried installing the amrnb package already :( [00:07] ga_sk8er: If it's taking this long, I don't know how well you'll be able to play 3D games...:( [00:07] 36 updates. maybe 1 will be what i need [00:07] soreau, it is, I did it in previous versions of ubuntu without a problem [00:07] hoy there [00:07] klappi: SO how do I stop GDM from running? [00:07] anybody knows how modem-manager gets started ? [00:08] that piece of junk jumps on any USB serial port it sees it seems [00:08] luismendes: In that case, pulseaudio may be causing the problem for you [00:08] including my keyspan adapter i use for other thing [00:08] hogs all the ports [00:08] Is there an easy way to snoop binary traffic on the SPI and I2C buses? [00:08] klappi: This new whiz bang event based system doesn't work for me if its not configurable in an obvious way [00:08] and respawns if you try to kill it [00:08] there is no devices in preferences > sound [00:08] soreau, probably, I've read about it... how can I remove it and fall back to something else [00:08] ? [00:08] ga_sk8er: I would activate the recommended 'Nvidia Accelerated Graphics Driver' [00:09] the same video card works in windows xp [00:09] How do I disabe GDM with UPSTART? [00:09] ahm network mangkler [00:09] since I'm to understand upstart is for my own good. [00:09] Well, it's the drivers I already tried to install. GOOD news is, now that my printer is working, I can print the installation instructions and read troubleshooting when I jack this thing all up. :D [00:09] Guys i installed linux-generic-pae but now the gui wont boot =( [00:09] Eastdallas ...how do i do that? [00:09] luismendes: Well you can stop it from being executable by using 'chmod -x /etc/init.d/pulseaudio' if that file exists, then rebooting. You can use the same command with +x instead to make it executable again (able to start) [00:09] ga_sk8er: Nvidia cards should work fine in Ubuntu. [00:10] soreau, thanks!! =) [00:10] How do you downgrade back to linux-generic kernel? [00:10] ga_sk8er: Did you go to System>Administration>Hardware Drivers? [00:10] crc32: i dont use ubuntu without X so i never tried to [00:10] crc32 i googled "karmic disable gdm" and got this "http://ubuntu-ky.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1322949" [00:11] What steps are needed to remove swap partition and use it for sth else? just delete the entry in fstab? [00:11] EastDallas ....yeah, thats where it showed me 36 updates but it wont do them [00:11] may have to do it from terminal [00:12] Subby: swapoff -a first then comment out in fstab [00:12] erik [00:12] ga_sk8er: Find the one that says 'NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (version xxx) [Recommended]'. Click it then click the 'Activate' button. [00:12] spiffman: Yea as have I and no one seems to understand how to disable from upstart these users are trying methods that no longer work since the gdm scripts are missing at this point. [00:13] And again I'm looking for the official way. And so far I'm seeing people just buchering their init scripts rather then configureing through upstart. This can't be valid. [00:13] crc32: i haven't tried the proposed solution on the site (because i want gdm) but the solution says "Don't know if you've already found the solution, but here's what I came up with. [00:13] the issue is that GDM is run from Upstart instead of the old way..." [00:13] i cant get the list to pop up. it wants me to do updates [00:13] sorry for flood [00:13] whats terminal command for updates? [00:14] You can't install updates? [00:14] isnt it su -c "yum update' [00:14] apt-get upgrade [00:14] ga_sk8er: You can't install updates [00:14] apt-get update [00:14] not even by terminal? [00:14] ga_sk8er, in ubuntu it is sudo aptitude safe-upgrade [00:14] ga_sk8er, apt-get update then use apt-get upgrade [00:14] ga_sk8er: in a command line 'sudo apt-get update' then 'sudo apt-get upgrade' [00:14] re: gdm I just rename /usr/sbin/gdm and /usr/sbin/gdm-binary. Can't run it if you can't find it.... [00:15] ga_sk8er: what they said, only you have to use sudo [00:15] What would cause HPLIP to be unable to print .jpg, .doc, .odp, .etc files? [00:15] re: gdm this worked dandy in 8.X, but in 9.10, sound doesn't work unless I start my wm using gdm. A pox on the programmers.... [00:16] the commands arent working [00:16] ga_sk8er: What error?

YOu've got an Nvidia card, it should work fine. [00:19] ipatrol: open a terminal and type firefox. See if there's some useful output... [00:19] <[SilverFox]> What is the best way to uninstall my old fglrx (ati) so when i reset my new nvidia card will detect auto and install like was a fresh os install [00:19] ga_sk8er: YOu've got to install these updates [00:19] i think the updates just installed [00:19] This is such a fail. BSD and every other Linux distro is getting along find with sysv inits but now ubuntu knows better. [00:19] losha: Fixed it, the window panel kept disappearing [00:19] wassup [00:19] crc32, so the solution on the forum didn't work? [00:20] crc32: I have to agree. Such hubris. And have you seen the mess masquerading as grub scripts? [00:20] ga_sk8er: Just copy this and paste it into a terminal: sudo apt-get update [00:20] ga_sk8er: then this: sudo apt-get upgrade [00:20] No it didn't. Worse now when I boot up grub forces you to press enter on the default boot option. And I can't figure out how to configure it to pick one after a 5 second timeout. [00:21] <[SilverFox]> What is the best way to uninstall my old fglrx (ati) so when i reset my new nvidia card will detect auto and install like was a fresh os install [00:21] and /boot/grub is unrecognizeable to anything I have ever seen.

[00:27] Just wondering on how well the driver support is for this one, or if I should look at a different one? [00:27] i agree, karmic introduced a lot of confusion in a simple OS [00:27] I'f I were new I woulden't mind learning but I'm way passed that and poof I feel just as dumb as the new user. [00:27] And of course GDM started up.

[00:27] Let me try the (never trick. [00:28] I jus don't get it. Instead of makeing a better front end to sysv they insist on redoing everything. [00:28] I have a cronjob, with a fair number of characters long command, which seems to be cut of and misinterpeted. Does cron have a limit to its commands? [00:28] ga_sk8er: gimme a sec [00:28] Is there a netbook remix channel or not? [00:28] Gentoon: a good strategy is to find a card on newegg that reviewers say works well with unix. Also, ebay, same tactic... [00:28] losha a card? [00:29] What card?

I have a POP account that is syncing appropriately on receiving and sending, but when I send an email to the trash folder in evolution and empty the trash, it only deletes the email in evolution and not on the server. Anyone know how to get around this? I want a duplicate on the server for remote access, but not if I delete it through evo, so deleting from the server on retrieval is ou [00:30] t... Any ideas? [00:30] Thats why I wanted to ask some oif the people already using netbook remix [00:30] of [00:30] Gentoon: then don't buy it, or make sure the return policy is good....

[00:31] spiffman: if it doesn't say: this ran ubuntu really well, you're a pioneer....

(I hate windows lol but my mate wants to use it) [00:31] <-- has netbook release on a dell mini 9 [00:31] scun: that is a possibility... I'm really not familiar with email setup. does IMAP give more folder control? [00:31] biovore No it isnt, the kernel is built for the atom and everything is configured for its specific hardware, read the wiki. [00:31] losha yea thats true, pioneering can be just as bad [00:31] ga_sk8er: sudo pkill apt [00:31] I am sure thats what it looks like to an end user though. [00:32] ok ran that [00:32] ga_sk8er: then sudo apt-get upgrade [00:32] now do the sudo apt-get upgrade [00:32] yes [00:32] & sudo apt-get update? [00:32] Gentoon: new hardware is often a problem, no-one has had time to reverse-engineer drivers.... [00:32] kilo: seems to.. I use Imap with gmail and other accounts that I have.. one I can't which is my ISP's email account.. with that one I use pop but tell the program (evo or thunderbird) to delete on download.. that way I don't have to mess with the server anymore.

This would be how you would share a Linux box's printers with a network, though. [00:49] i got a set that came with my mp3 player [00:49] Anyone here savvy with VLC Player? [00:49] ga_sk8er: that is bad for a notebook.. :/ [00:49] LordHawke, I use it plenty... what do you want to do? [00:50] EastDallas its quit searching & nothing shows up [00:50] ga_sk8er: nothing is in the Hardware Driver window, or no window? [00:51] Eastdallas no window [00:51] ga_sk8er: reboot [00:51] <[SilverFox]> anyone here with 9000 series nvidia I got the 9800GX2 [00:51] what did u say to try before the reboot? [00:51] spiffman, I'm just goin' off the top of my head, here. I thought it would be interesting if I could broadcast a video stream so that people with the address/URL/etc. would be able to watch with an internet streaming player. I've looked and see that it's possible on a network, but is what I'm wanting possible? Over the internet? Without paying money for website crap? [00:51] grkblood13: in the sections where only the loud guy is talking, you can reduce his amplitude, but it's slow and tedious work, and if he drowns out another speaker, there's not much you can do. But play with audacity... [00:51] EastDallas what did u say to run before a reboot === yofel_ is now known as yofel === hollman_ is now known as hollman [00:52] ga_sk8er: System>administraiton>Update Manager [00:52] See thats what I'm talking about Alt-Ctrl-BackSpace doesn't even drop me out of X11 anymore [00:52] spiffman, I'd like to play it from my desktop computer so that people over the internet will be able to watch it. [00:52] he folks! [00:52] how do I get into /etc [00:52] LordHawke, on an internal network, no problem (haven't done it but it's possible). on the internet, you can try using a dynamic dns service, which is free, and you can connect from anywhere. [00:53] cd etc ? or what [00:53] crc32: it's configurable (at least in gnome) but the developers know better than you.... [00:53] gksudo natuilus [00:53] I gues so losha. :\ [00:53] is there no solution for empathy/pidgin hidden feature for gtalk/jabber? [00:53] b/c each time I typed in .. it says no such file or directory [00:53] Eastdallas update manager says.....E: Could not get lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) [00:53] E: Unable to lock the download directory [00:53] need a reboot? [00:53] spiffman, How would I go about such a thing. I don't know what a Dynamic Domain Name Server Service is. . . [00:53] reboot [00:53] I'll be here [00:53] ok [00:54] be back in a few after a reboot then [00:54] LordHawke: it's possible, but you have to set up a server, and that typically violates the terms of use with your ISP because it generates too much traffic... [00:54] Ubunu is starting to feel like Window ME [00:54] crc32: sudo apt-get install dontzap [00:54] crc32: sudo dontzap --disable [00:54] LordHawke, so you'd have to first test it on an internal network. look up how to stream video on ubuntu. Then, to do it over the internet, you're going to have to get a free dynamic dns acccount (like dyndns.org or similar), and you should be able to connect to your streaming server the same way you did internally, but with the ddynamic dns address === Ignatius is now known as Guest53093 [00:55] crc32: to restore alt+ctrl+backspace === Pici` is now known as Pici [00:55] hey guys ... how do I get into the /etc ? === Prodego_ is now known as Prodego [00:55] hmm. . . [00:55] Is that a joke eastdallas? [00:55] is there no solution for empathy/pidgin hidden feature for gtalk/jabber? [00:55] . . . . . . . . . [00:55] what is the command line to switch users? [00:55] command [00:56] LordHawke ...? [00:56] apt-cache search dontzap yeilds nothing [00:56] Thinking. . . [00:56] how can I switch user from terminal? [00:56] janhouse: su [00:56] no [00:56] LordHawke, looks like the solution is not through vlc though http://freakingtips.com/2009/07/23/online-video-streaming-on-ubuntu/ === slaven is now known as mr_mister [00:56] spiffman, Sorry. No matter what I'm doin', I tend to be a tad excessive on the elipses. . . [00:56] like graphically [00:56] there is switch users button in menu [00:56] how can I do it from terminal === brad__ is now known as dj_bushido [00:57] How can I get my printer to print using the HPLIP device manager? [00:57] janhouse: It's su, su stands for switch user [00:57] LordHawke: said he, eliptically.... [00:57] FATAL: Module compat_ioctl32 not found. what's the package i have install to get it module load? [00:57] no, not su [00:57] omg! [00:57] crc32: https://wiki.edubuntu.org/X/Config/DontZap (they removed the option from xorg.conf, need to configure it differently in karmic) [00:57] hi how can i increase the size of my /var/log/ files so they contain more information and go back a bit further [00:57] lock screen and press switch users button [00:57] what happens?! [00:58] I must do that [00:58] lol... i have ellipses because my circle is oblong! [00:58] losha, Said me, ellipses. Ellipses are the triple-periods at the end of non-terminating sentenses. [00:58] janhouse: su username switches to that user [00:58] ok, redefining my problem: after haveing sucessfully (re)boot my machine, i can hear sound on the speakers and, if i plug them in, on headphones. after bringing the machine to standby or hibernate, and reactivateing it, i can hear sound ONLY if i use headphones. the speakers do not seem to work, but using headphones, sound works as normal. this is a hp/compaq notebook with in integrated intel sound card. [00:58] not in terminal! [00:58] I need command to get to login screen [00:58] gnome login screen [00:58] losha, spiffman, That's what they're called. Ellipses. [00:58] LordHawke, we know, we're joking [00:58] please [00:59] LordHawke: thanks for that lesson in elementary grammar... [00:59] spiffman, The package mentioned on the instruction page cannot be found. . . [00:59] LordHawke, ffmpeg or ffserver [00:59] spiffman, FFServer [01:00] Why is HPLIP so limited in the file types it will print? [01:00] I'm trying to install sun-java86-bin, but it gave me a EULA with no visible input boxes. I need help quickly, because my life literally depends on getting this installed. I'm not joking at all [01:00] LordHawke, i just looked for it and didn't find it either... that tutorial was for 9.04 though and im on 9.10, i guess you'll have to find another [01:00] lostinspace_46: because HP would much prefer that you buy a new printer... [01:01] So am I. . . === jra is now known as Guest68790 [01:01] Scunizi, Thanks! Switching to IMAP protocol did the trick! [01:01] ok, redefining my problem: after haveing sucessfully (re)boot my machine, i can hear sound on the speakers and, if i plug them in, on headphones. after bringing the machine to standby or hibernate, and reactivateing it, i can hear sound ONLY if i use headphones. the speakers do not seem to work, but using headphones, sound works as normal. this is a hp/compaq notebook with in integrated intel sound card. [01:01] losha> Hmm, prolly true, but not too helpful...lol. [01:01] LordHawke, i looked online, there are various different methods to stream video [01:02] i lost about 20000 mp3s during a check disk on a bad drive. it turned them all into .chk files, how can i convert them to .mp3? is there a program for linux that can help me with this? [01:02] it messed up [01:02] wouldnt display the video correctly [01:02] lostinspace_46: if no-one here knows, it's off to google with you.... [01:02] all the files are still there they are just named .chk [01:02] i had to install a vidoe card bu8t this 1 is crap so i gotta reinstall a different one [01:03] LordHawke, but to access your computer from the internet for anything, you're going to have to either set your ip to static (so you can always connect to that same address) or use dynamic dns (dyndns.org, there are a lot of tutorials on howtoforge also) [01:03] ga_sk8er When you rebooted it crapped out? [01:03] mw: Sounds like perhaps the audio drivers are not restoring your cards state before suspending. Perhaps try reloading your audio cards driver modules [01:03] losha> I have googled and forumed and googled some more. I can't find any reference to my particular problem. [01:03] What is wrong in the command "wget -q0 - CUTtaglist_45.zip | gunzip -"? [01:04] ga_sk8er will not be using ubuntu for long... [01:04] soopos: Depends on what you intend for it to do [01:04] soreau: ok. will try to find out wich they are. but is there a possibility for restarting modules automatically after re-activating the computer? this would be a bad workaround, but would help for the first... [01:04] spiffman: I don't understand why ga_sk8er cannot get apt directory unlocked [01:04] or is there such a file that will batch rename all file in a DIR from CHK to .MP#? [01:04] soopos: add "-O -" to make it print the output to stdout [01:05] MP3? [01:05] I miss the old days when runlevel 5 mean X11. [01:05] tsimpson: Thank you! [01:05] EastDallas, i was following along, but couldn't figure that out either :P [01:05] lostinspace_46: bummer. But just so you know, the chances the someone lurking on this list knows the answer and has just been witholding it out of sheer spite and refusing to put it in the forums because he's here waiting for you to ask, is pretty slim.... [01:05] well not really. [01:06] mw: Well that's kinda what I was thinking.. if reloading the module(s) actually solved the problem, then you could figure out if there's a way to run a script on resume to reload the module(s) [01:06] crc32: it still does on Fedora... [01:06] spiffman: it seems like he should be able to run updates and activate the Nvidia proprietary driver and it should work. [01:06] welp, here goes nuthin! [01:06] losha> If I print from an app like oowriter it prints fine, but if I bring up the device manager it only prints about 5 file types [01:06] soreau: well.. still figuring out what to restart. [01:06] lostinspace_46: If I knew, I'd tell you. Honestly.... [01:06] losha> I am aware of that, but folks come and go [01:06] has anyone configured hp dv6 ir remote (ubuntu 9.10)?? [01:07] mw: What audio hw do you have as reported by lspci? [01:07] losha and RHEL up to 5. [01:07] losha> NP I don't know either [01:07] soreau: Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 03) [01:07] EastDallas, that's exactly how i got my nvidia 8600gt working in ubuntu... maybe he did not have restricted repositories enabled [01:08] was wondering if ultimatrix is worth installing on my 9.04? [01:08] EastDallas, the other option is downloading the driver from nvidia, logging into console with no X, and installing it manually [01:08] mw: Maybe you can look at the output of 'lsmod' to see which modules are loaded and figure out which ones are for your audio. Typically, snd related ones [01:09] soreau: founf the modue snd_intel8x0. cannot restart because "module in use" [01:09] spiffman: he can't even get the Hardware Drivers app to come up [01:09] so like What does simple stuff like "apache" start on in upstart? [01:09] losha, hey I rebuilt my initrd.img and sort of my grub folder, but how do I make vmlinux and system.map? [01:09] mw: Most times you have to unload anything using that module first, so it will be a group of modules you have to unload in order [01:09] EastDallas, i thought he said he got to the "searching for drivers" progress bar, which i assumed was the hardware drivers app (which is called jockey) [01:09] krdyt: there is a rename command. See man rename. You'll need help with it... [01:09] soreau: ok... lets have a try with that. [01:10] How can I make apache "use" php with .wml files? [01:10] spiffman: it would get that far, but when that progress bar completed it would just go away no main window [01:10] felixn: I thought they come when you install a kernel? [01:10] <[SilverFox]> I just installed 190.42 nvidia drivers but kde refuses to boot. [01:11] mw: and unload them with 'rmmod ' and load again with 'modprobe '. Typically, you unload all the modules to be able to unload the main one, then re-loading the main one automatically loads the other modules it needs [01:11] losha, I would think that too but they're not there :/ [01:11] ha1331: you need "AddType application/x-httpd-php .wml" somewhere in you apache conf or virtual host conf [01:11] losha, man raname? see it where? [01:11] [SilverFox]: try an earlier version.... [01:12] hello all [01:12] soreau: snd_intel8x0 seems to be the "topmost" module. while the other snd_ modules cannot be unloaded because others depend on them (module xxx is in use by $other_module), snd_intel8x0 just is "in use" with no other modules shown. [01:13] . [01:13] felixn: dpkg -S /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-16-generic-pae on my system says it came from package linux-image-2.6.31-16-generic-pae [01:13] heya all [01:13] krdyt: open a terminal and type 'man rename' [01:13] mw: idk, maybe try -f to force unload [01:13] soreau: ERROR: Removing 'snd_intel8x0': Resource temporarily unavailable [01:13] I've got a strange problem 70% through my server install [01:14] di is prompting me to insert a disc === FFEMTcJ_ is now known as FFEMTcJ [01:14] . [01:14] losha, it turns out some of the files are small, like 32kb so they need joined with others [01:15] i need to figure out how to recover them :\ [01:15] soreau: any other ideas? [01:15] mw: Not really [01:15] soreau: ok. thanks though. [01:16] I think my 3-year-old daughter accidentally got to the computer and must have hit some key combination to zoom the screen in. Is there a key combination I can hit to put it back to normal? [01:16] ok, redefining my problem: after haveing sucessfully (re)boot my machine, i can hear sound on the speakers and, if i plug them in, on headphones. after bringing the machine to standby or hibernate, and reactivateing it, i can hear sound ONLY if i use headphones. the speakers do not seem to work, but using headphones, sound works as normal. this is a hp/compaq notebook with in integrated intel sound card. [01:17] losha, woo I just completely removed the kernel and rebuilt it, now I have to fix things in the grub folder... says there's no stage1 [01:17] queso: Tried Super+Scroll down? [01:17] soreau: awesome, fixed it, thanks [01:17] losha, could you use dpkg on your system to see what package /boot/grub/stage1 is in? [01:17] queso: np ;) [01:18] krdyt: by hand, using mp3wrap. I guess windows really did a number on your drive... [01:18] soreau: must have been my wife then, 'cause I don't think my daughter's that coordinated, lol [01:18] felixn: I can't, I have grub2, it doesn't use stage files. Someone else will have to oblige you or you can maybe web search it.... [01:19] queso: Well depending on which zoom plugin you're using, there are other key combos that could zoom in to specific amounts [01:19] oh well === ComradeH1z is now known as ComradeHaz [01:20] ok, redefining my problem: after haveing sucessfully (re)boot my machine, i can hear sound on the speakers and, if i plug them in, on headphones. after bringing the machine to standby or hibernate, and reactivateing it, i can hear sound ONLY if i use headphones. the speakers do not seem to work, but using headphones, sound works as normal. this is a hp/compaq notebook with in integrated intel sound card.

I've searched quite a bit, but was unable to find anything. [01:30] DUSKNOIR: i would think it should work fine, did you try it? [01:30] Hi folks, I've been researching the state of the nvidia vs. ati in linux on ubuntu deal, and was looking for some personal (and recent) opinions [01:30] Billiard: I have yet to; I'd heard it can prevent Windows 7 from booting, and as such I wanted to be sure because I attempting. [01:31] (this was, however, back during Windows 7's beta. I can't find any more recent reports. :X) [01:31] superlou: nvidia has better support for linux [01:31] Billiard, that's what i hear, though i'm hoping to buy a new laptop soon [01:31] and Nvidia comes at a hefty price [01:31] bep: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/75-63-windows-samba-issue#t1444 [01:31] i've seen a bunch of laptops that look decently spec'd for what I want, but they are all ATI discrete cards [01:32] so likely decently powerful, but I'd rather not jump through too many hoops when it comes ubuntu time [01:32] superlou: their drivers are better on windows imo as well, ati doesnt support many of their cards on newer operating systems [01:32] Billiard, ah, I hadnt heard about that [01:33] ANy ideas on IBM graphics? [01:33] I think they're mostly onboard though [01:33] ibm makes gfx chips? lol [01:33] yeah, that was my thought as well [01:33] but i've come across a few notebooks with them [01:33] i am needing to set up a ubuntu vbox install. help i cant get proper inet access what to do [01:33] mw: have you tried this? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/269027 [01:33] epinky: thanks [01:34] my problem is i got spoiled on a university laptop with Nvidia discrete graphics and 1920x1200 display [01:34] Anybody have any experience using pulseaudio to sync / stream audio over a network?

[03:34] maco, but how do you run sudo mount //192.169.0.4/core2duobackup /mnt/core2duobackup in a script? using root in a script has always puzzled me. i am not a programmer. i don't know much more than basic linux commands [03:34] (but i wish i was on an ubuntu computer. argh. this mac is annoying) [03:35] mazda01: you're intending to cron this right? [03:35] ve_: the vboxadditions are installed in the guest os, not the host os [03:35] mazda01: just have cron run the script as root [03:35] maco: so you don't know how to bypass the problem? [03:35] maco, oh yeah. i can put it in root's crontab. but when I do that, then it's written by root on linux and when I try to access it on windows, it says permission denied. [03:36] sergiu_bla: what if you wait til its booted before plugging the other hard drive? [03:36] I recently applied a number of updates - after rebooting my computer I find that I'm unable to log onto any other WM except Gnome, despite specifying otherwise via GDM.

[03:37] i've just made an image of my ssd on my external esatata hard disk [03:37] sergiu_bla: boot ubuntu then plug in your other hard drive? [03:37] hey, how would i got about installing KDE on ubuntu? [03:37] but i don't know at all how to put back the image i've done the day i'll have my ssd crash and have to put all back from the image [03:37] i used the command dd [03:37] flexible: sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop [03:38] jacquesdupontd: same thing, just reverse the if= and of= [03:38] http://i.imgur.com/vyUTEl.png [03:38] that's a shame [03:38] thanks maco [03:38] mazda01: you're trying to backup from ubuntu to windows right? [03:38] also, is there a flag i can use with apt-get to stop it asking for permission to install? [03:38] What are Ubuntu's default fonts and font sizes? [03:38] mazda01: though actually, thats probably a bad idea... [03:38] maco, but it will only paste the image no ? it will extract it and make my hardisk being exactly paritionned and mbr like the image saved it ? [03:39] bill how do i run the guest editione then [03:39] mazda01: because when you go to restore the backup the permissions will be all screwed up === ae86-drifter is now known as [ae86] [03:39] <[ae86]> hi [03:39] does anyone know if startup manager conflicts with grub2? [03:39] maco, well if thats that simple it rocks === obstriege is now known as obst [03:39] jacquesdupontd: yes its that simple. its a bit for bit copy [03:39] jacquesdupontd: this is how i used to do backups [03:39] maco, i simply format the ssd before ? [03:39] jacquesdupontd: except it took like 12 hours... [03:39] flexible: -y [03:40] stuff vbox i think i am about ready to ditch ubuntu [03:40] jacquesdupontd: dont even need to [03:40] maco, my ssd is multiboot and 32 gb it went at 32 mb /s so pretty fast [03:40] hi guys [03:40] i dualboot with win7... when i try to load win7 i get ERROR: INVALID SIGMATURE PRESS ANY KEY [03:40] maco, no i am trying to take a tarball that's gunzipped and copy it over to another location for safe keeping [03:40] Sample of the error that daemon.log reports when trying to log into XFCE (as an example): http://paste.ubuntu.com/341620/ [03:40] jacquesdupontd: yeah i dont have an ssd so my backups were slow :P [03:40] <[ae86]> 32m /s is slow [03:40] Billiard: if i cant access inet in vbox os then its useless by by ubuntu [03:40] maco, great great great i just do it from a live cd i imagine ? [03:40] What are Ubuntu's default fonts and font sizes? [03:40] jacquesdupontd: yep [03:41] Archanamiya: dejavu sans is the default font === cj_ is now known as cj [03:41] Archanamiya: i *think* size 10 [03:41] maco: The hdd is IDE from what i understand i can't plug in an IDE hdd while the machine is running [03:41] ubuntu is too broken [03:41] maco, another last question, can it use an existing image and update only what was modified ? [03:41] maco, thanks :) [03:41] I would like to know if possible how to run tvu player in ubuntu 9.04 [03:41] maco, instead of creating a new one even if i don't care ? [03:41] maco, what about the specfic settings for each thing (application, monospace, etc.) [03:41] hello, can someone help me reset my screen resolution v8.04? I used the update manager and now lost my 1280x800, I am stuck with 800x600 using a dell mini 12 [03:41] sergiu_bla: oh. can you swap which one is in the enclosure and which one is external? [03:41] ve_: you configured something wrong, internet should work without changing any settings, maybe try vbox non open source edition [03:41] here's a 9.10 problem both with 32 bit and 64 bit - sometimes when I reboot, the system comes up, with NO information in the taskbars -- if I do a gdm restart it will work - but what's wrong in the first place? [03:41] maco, basically I already have sbackup running a backup and storing it locally. i then want to take a copy of that .tgz file and put it on my windows machine for safe keeping. i do that for my mysql database's also. they get backup'd up locally, then I save a copy of them of onto the windows machine [03:42] I'm having strange results trying to use RTP multicast.

[03:43] Anyone know if there's a key combination I can type in Gnome to bring up an application text box launcher wherein I type in the name of the application to launch and it runs it? [03:43] maco, you've read what i've said ? can i update an existing image that would just take in mind what has changed on the hard disk or do i have to create a new one each time i wanna backup ? [03:43] Billiard: i have not done anything to inet config. it should run by deffault [03:43] jacquesdupontd: the mbr, partition table...EVERYTHING is copied with dd [03:44] Can't login to X, ttys work just fine (that how i'm on now throu Irssi).

[03:44] ok how can I run tv u player in ubuntu 9.04 [03:44] is this an appropriate place to ask about Ubuntu to Kubuntu networking? [03:44] maco, this i understand so ? if something has moved can it read the image made a month ago and just modify it with the new modification made on the hard disk ? [03:44] Question: After applying a number of updates and rebooting my machine, I seemed to be unable to log into any other WM except Gnome. Specifying anything other than Gnome still results in Gnome starting. Example daemon.log shows error when trying XFCE (as an example): http://paste.ubuntu.com/341620/ [03:45] I know this application is only for windows os or mac os [03:45] Verminator: sure [03:45] maco, or do you wanted to mean that i need to do a complete new image each time ? that's not a real problem i have plenty of space [03:45] But there should be some sol for Linux Right??

[03:46] I want to network my ubuntu and kubuntu box and share a folder between the 2, should i use samba, nfs, or zeroconf? [03:46] ve_: "ping google.com" [03:46] Cyde: you could use wxmaxima, it may be a bit of overkill though, depending on what you want to do [03:46] imimimimi, yes, most likely the diff file is a patch, that's what .diff files are [03:46] bgjsl: patience first. and then check this link out http://linux4humanbeing.blogspot.com/2009/04/how-to-install-tvuplayer-on-linux.html [03:46] Verminator, NFS [03:47] trism: I vaguely remember using something in GNU/Linux that wasn't overkill at all, just the basic calculator app but with a log. [03:47] Kcalc doesn't seem to have that though. [03:47] ve_: or try "ping 209.85.225.147" [03:47] maco, ok nevermind, thx [03:47] rhlin99: you should have a backup xorg.conf in /tx/X11 [03:47] is there an easy way to convert a wubi install to a regular dual booting computer?

[03:48] the problem is that simulates window running as wine application [03:48] other sol?? [03:48] Billiard: ping google.com is doing lots. [03:48] bgjsl: what is sol?

IDENTICAL laptops used for imaging windows across LANs. Everything is identical between each LAN - EVERYTHING. Yet the Ubuntu LAN finishes sooner than Kubuntu. Is there anything that Ubuntu and Kubuntu do differently that could effect network speed like that? [03:52] <[ae86]> LizardK|ng, so you finally changed your mind :P [03:52] ve_: did you set up a proxy or something?

See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit [05:02] what can i do to fix it [05:02] the virt-manager tells me that there are no aviable bridget devices [05:03] * SolarisBoy walks on hands to regrigerator for cold pizza [05:03] * SolarisBoy cartwheels back === zz_b0w is now known as b0w [05:03] losha: what can i do to fix it [05:03] losha: thanks! it removes pulseaudio completely? [05:03] and with ifconfig i dont get br0 or eth0 displayed (not even eth0 if i configure it in any way) [05:03] gestahlt: it requires running it with root. [05:03] can anyone help me? [05:03] SolarisBoy: Please stop that [05:03] I did it as root [05:03] gestahlt: Ask bridget... [05:03] gestahlt: you ran virt-manager as root? [05:03] yeah [05:03] foul_owl: apparently. It fixed my missing sound problem on 9.10... [05:04] * SolarisBoy walks on hands to regrigerator for cold pizza [05:04] * SolarisBoy cartwheels back [05:04] losha: it WAS me, i was checking out administrative packages (ebox, webmin) and must have somehow removed nautilus when i removed one of them [05:04] and I want to make a /boot partition that's seperate [05:04] losha: interesting. pulseaudio is a neat idea, but in my experience it has been buggy and cpu intensive [05:04] songer: can you pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list [05:04] <[ae86]> is there a way to add graphical interface to grub [05:04] BaconShota: grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. [05:04] i think i would rather not have it [05:04] LizardK|ng: and we were all ready to declare your system compromised.... [05:04] hola a todos [05:04] what is the gnome equal to windows hardware manager? [05:04] losha: i certainly was! [05:05] foul_owl: well try it. You can always reinstall I suppose.... [05:05] no but I'm downgrading because GRUB 2's configuration is awful [05:05] touchpad is not working on ubuntu 9.10 with fresh install, my laptop is fujitsu siemens [05:05] losha: i think i might. thanks! [05:05] Verminator: system -> administration - hardware manager [05:05] can anyone help me please? [05:05] BaconShota: some people have done that. It's unsupported of course... [05:05] cutout: ask away.. [05:05] I downgraded from Grub 1.97 because it is beta [05:05] losha: technically it isn't, as 8.04 is still supported [05:06] Quan-Time: what do you mean? [05:06] well, i fee lbetter, even though it's wacky that removing something like ebox would remove nautilus [05:06] aks your question.. [05:06] BaconShota: downgrading grub2 isn't supported AFAIK... [05:06] I used gddrescue to recover data from a NTFS partitioned HDD and used ddrescue -n /dev/hda1 /dev/hdb [05:06] It finished [05:06] Quan-Time: thank u, but i dont see a hardware manager [05:06] LizardK|ng: sometimes they get the dependencies wrong.... [05:06] Quan-Time:I did, mtouchpad is not working on 9.10 with fresh install on two machines [05:07] And then i tried to open mozilla firefox and ubuntu died. all windows were gone. I rebooted and got this error: [05:07] I rebooted and then: GRUB loading error: unknown filesystem and was let out with grub rescue and to input command [05:07] Well, anyway once I downgrade GRUB, how do I transfer /boot to a new partition and make it work [05:07] losha: i didn't realize it happened yesterday; i thought that somehow using the LVPM tool did it [05:07] BaconShota: you cp -r /boot and then you edit /boot/grub/menu.lst [05:08] cutout: touchpads are fine if the are synaptic devices, i personally have a elantech. and mine doesnt work. registers as a ps2 mouse.. no fix as yet. my touchpad "works" but i cant config it [05:08] Right now i'm on my other machine. What do i do to boot to ubuntu? [05:08] LizardK|ng: dont' come crying to me. I once did rm -rf . in / [05:08] losha: it shouldn't be tat simple. Shouldn't fdisk have to do with it [05:09] Quan-Time: is ubuntu getting worse? [05:09] Quan-Time: I just need to live with it? [05:09] BaconShota: apparently newer rm checks for that kind of carelessness... [05:10] alive? [05:10] grrrr [05:10] does anyone know what filesystems will honour the +c attr within a default install? [05:10] it shows the device in the shared physical device but it doesnt display the bridge [05:10] <[ae86]> how do i add graphics into the grub loader like the old version [05:10] cutout: I feel 9.10 wasn't up to 8.04 in quality myself. But then, 8.04 has had a lot of bugfixes put into it... [05:10] if I have grub pointed to a /root/grub on one partition, and I have two partitions with two different operating systems on it.

[06:32] i_is_broke, what is that? A command from the looks of it, what does it do? [06:32] i_is_broke, ahh gotcha [06:32] If you have a router, and two computers (1xlaptop 1xdesktop) and the desktop is setup for VNC, and the router forwards 5900 to the desktop. Is it normal that the laptop on the same LAN will not connect to the desktop for VNC session with the WAN IP? (works with LAN IP) [06:32] saruji, gives you the driver [06:32] i_is_broke, thank you [06:33] al_: yes, it should work like that [06:33] al_: can you draw a diagram? [06:33] saruji, yw [06:33] tsimpson: ok - why is that tho? [06:33] tsimpson: I thought the packets would go to the ISP and get sent back to the originating router [06:33] i would think you could use the WAN IP [06:34] al_: oh I missed the "not", sorry. I meant that it should work [06:34] al_: connecting to the WAN address should basically connect to the router for forwarding [06:34] tsimpson: right, so then its not working the way it should [06:35] tsimpson: yer thats what I thought === bnebrebnebrebne is now known as |_ocke [06:35] I guess you should make sure you have the right IP for the WAN and that the router is actually forwarding properly [06:35] that setup works here for my www server, both WAN and LAN addresses work [06:36] I know this is a stupid question and I know the answer, but, can you reverse any 'rm' actions?

When trying on another keyboard, the fn key works fine. Any ideas or hints on how to solve this? Much appreciated. [06:41] yeah, chrome seems to launch themas /proc/self/exe - if you plug in the pid and ls -l /proc//exe you will see that it points to chrome [06:41] I'm using Karmic Koala [06:41] tsimpson I know. That's why I thought the exe process is related to Chrome. [06:41] cn28h, ah yes, indeed...

[07:00] i am running on a live usb right now [07:00] EsatYuce, have you tried eth0up? [07:00] EsatYuce, is your wireless connection also active right now? [07:00] karma_police, have you tried install-grub2? [07:00] !grub2 [07:00] GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 [07:01] no.. i thought install-grub2 was for 9.04 upgrades to 9.10 i am a 9.10 fresh install [07:01] cn28h, :yes it is active, coz when i try to connect to Internet with wired, it cant connect [07:01] EsatYuce, well, take down wlan0 (sudo ifconfig wlan0 down) and then check what route -n says [07:01] i have followed the wiki page [07:01] is it better to run a window manager over straight gnome like enlightenment or is it just a matter of preference? [07:02] cn28h, : o k [07:02] karma_police, other then that, if windows isnt booting you might try to repair the mbr with the windows disk. [07:02] everything was working perfect untill i d/l the startup manager using synaptic.. i think it causes probs with grub2 [07:02] Draconis, rephrase that [07:03] how can i get this:/etc/apt/sources.list.d/sunab-ppa-karmic.list [07:03] cnb [07:03] windows isn't booting because of something to do with the grub.. i installed windows second and reinstalled grub [07:03] cn28h, i tried it, there is not any text in Terminal [07:03] karma_police, ah i see and if you cant get it with install-grub2 then i dont think i can help you. [07:03] zenlunatic, does gnome need a windows manager to compliment it in your opinion or is it fine by itself? [07:03] let me try that... brb [07:04] EsatYuce, all right, now try: sudo route add default gw 192.168.2.1 eth0 [07:04] Draconis, it has one called metacity... it must have a window manager to work === cyberjorge_ is now known as cyberjorge [07:04] Draconis: gnome is a desktop, which includes a window manager [07:05] zenlunatic, ah, well then I guess I mean besides metacity... heh I'm not sure I guess... I've been using E but find myself going back to gnome + metacity I guess [07:05] cn28h, : i tried it, but again there is not any text in Terminal [07:05] cn28h, : let me try to OFF my wireless switch?? [07:05] EsatYuce, that's good, means no errors. Now it should show that change if you do route -n [07:06] i like compiz [07:06] EsatYuce, not necessary [07:06] hello every body can any body can tell me why tmp folder is not being cleared on each reboot on ubuntu 9.10 i am having this issue with 9.10 any help'll be of great help [07:06] LizardK|ng, haven't tried that one yet. just trying to get it to where I can get a snazzy looking desktop experience but still keep productive [07:06] at the top of my windows -on my bar- there are wired and wireless connections [07:06] LizardK|ng, in E I felt most of my time was tweaking it to not do certain things..... or to do them [07:07] EsatYuce, right.. does the new default gw show in route -n? try pinging 192.168.2.1 [07:08] Draconis: compiz will do that, i have wobbly windows and switch desktops with a rotating cube and its still really responsive; its a low end notebook [07:08] cn28h, : which commant will i try? [07:08] Draconis, metacity has composite functionality without compiz. Its quite nice and much less resource intensive [07:08] EsatYuce, route -n [07:08] EsatYuce, it should show the new default gw [07:09] EsatYuce, if so, try pinging it (ping 192.168.2.1) [07:09] cn28h, : ok [07:09] zenlunatic, how do you enable that? [07:09] hi all! quick question... I have a file saved from the root directory... how do I access it from nautilus? I ls under root and it is listed, but I can't find it! [07:09] * I meant root terminal! [07:09] wcGary83, ls / [07:09] cn28h, : http://slexy.org/view/s20lHlFdZK [07:09] also on a more serious question... I am having DNS issues up the wazzoo where URLs will randomly resolve to other ips...e xample right now for you LizardK|ng is compiz.org which sends me to google.com http://pastie.org/743738 for DIG results... any ideas? [07:10] Draconis, its in gconf [07:10] Hi, I have been connected to the external VPN server of my university using VPNC. VPNC says:VPNC started in background. My IP address has not changed though and I don't have access to any of the websites I should have access to via VPN. [07:10] i can't select multiple files in nautilus using control or shift because i'm VNC'ed in; it works at the console. anyone know how to get it to work over VNC? [07:10] I had to run sane from root to access my scanner, but when it saves the file I can't find it anywhere! [07:10] EsatYuce, odd that it got in there more than once.. did you run it multiple times? anyway, tryi pinging out / accessing internet now [07:10] only if I ls from a root terminal! [07:11] I want to move it to openoffice so I can email it [07:11] how can i try pinging out? [07:11] EsatYuce, ping 4.2.2.2 [07:11] nautilus can;t find it, even if i gksudo nautilus [07:11] Draconis, try a free dns server perhaps [07:12] is there any way to get to my tomboy notes over ssh? [07:12] cn28h, : it is runnig in Terminal [07:12] they don't seem to be stored in ~/.tomboy anymore [07:12] zenlunatic, I shouldn't use my ISPs? It is verizon... just wondering if maybe there is some software that is causing this on ubuntu or no? [07:12] EsatYuce, ok.. and is it working? [07:12] yes , [07:13] time is increase [07:13] EsatYuce, aight, assuming your DNS is working, you should have internet accss now [07:13] Draconis, try resolving ips manually to see if its dns [07:13] Draconis: yeah, your DNS server must be hosed [07:13] I need to change permissions so all users can access the file... it is locked! [07:13] Draconis, check your /etc/hosts [07:14] if i OFF my wireless, what will happen? [07:14] Draconis: you can use 208.67.220.220 and 208.67.222.222 as your dns servers (openDNS) [07:14] EsatYuce, What do you mean by OFF? [07:14] also, does anybody know how I could change the permissions of my scanner so I don't have to run xsane from a root terminal? [07:14] How can I set up a vpn on PPTP? I have read a bunch of docs but can't get it to work :( Any help is appreciated [07:14] EastDallas, probably nothing [07:14] er [07:14] EsatYuce, ^ [07:15] cn28h, : help me, it is still runnig in Terminal [07:15] EsatYuce, it's still not working for you?

[08:08] none of them can replace dreamweaver [08:08] EsatYuce, you should first allocate the free space. You can use gparted for that. [08:08] can I use ubuntu to upgrade iphone fw ? [08:08] how do i force quit pidgin in terminal? [08:08] i have a pastebin of my grub.cfg http://pastebin.org/65051 [08:08] jozefk: I use Bluefish, but gedit is fine enough. :D [08:08] Karma_police: IF both Ubuntu and Win7 are fresh installs why not just start over and install Windows first? [08:08] tsimpson: Do you know if either of those two packages will integrate with Evolution, or are they standalone? [08:08] Psinetic: press ctl z [08:08] i like gedit [08:08] blue112, i m using GPartEd already [08:08] !iphone > iqbala [08:08] iqbala, please see my private message [08:08] Draconis: You should know compiz is the de facto standard for window management.. That's why it is default in ubuntu :) [08:08] jozefk, if you want exactly the same software that dreamweaver is, use dreamweaver.

So you have free space, and you want to use it on ubuntu (to put a virtualbox drive on it) ? [08:09] Andorin: I don't know, as I don't use hotmail [08:09] but i'm missing some features in gedit. like autocompletion for example. anyway, will try vim [08:09] Psinetic: killall pidgin ? [08:09] i am running irssi and did not get private msg [08:09] ubuntu isn't fresh.... i'd rather figure out what went wrong for future reference... i'm a linux noob.. if i was just gonna reinstall whenever something went wrong i would have stuck with windoze [08:09] i'll try that [08:09] yes, you are right [08:09] Psinetic: or kill with pid [08:09] soreau, yeah hehehe I'm still learning about all these things...

[08:10] i see no link for upgrading iphone fw [08:10] jozefk, then don't look for the exactly same software. [08:10] isolat3dsh33p: adobes flash plugin causes it's own problems. Compiz has nothing to do with that [08:10] jozefk, there's no clone. [08:10] EsatYuce: 4 is newer and generally faster [08:10] EsatYuce, ext4. [08:10] ok ok so next question of preference.... best terminal? using gnome-terminal right now... maybe looking for something that still allows copy/paste but borderless? [08:10] Draconis: If you need any help with it, there is #compiz [08:10] Draconis: consider Terminator [08:10] !best | Draconis [08:10] Draconis: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task.

[08:11] i really like ubuntu... just been very frustrating here of late.. i'm sure its just a bad cfg file or something [08:11] h00k, and blue112, : ok i m trying ext4 [08:11] soreau: It works fine in metacity :/ [08:11] hi how do i know my ip address? im using Karmic.. thank you [08:11] grub is very touchy.. especially if you new to it [08:11] isolat3dsh33p: I wont argue with you. flash sucks. [08:11] piojunbabia: ifconfig [interface] [08:11] piojunbabia, ifconfig [08:11] yes i dont' expect the clone just something i could use instead but good enough. like gimp instead of PS for example. inkscape instead of Illustrator and so on [08:11] !ip [08:11] piojunbabia, open a console then type ifconfig [08:11] piojunbabia: man ifconfig [08:11] karma_police: This is a pretty unusual situation. Now you know that if you are going to do a dual boot install windows first. You can just back up your home directory, and the hidden folders basically give you a list of packages you need to install. [08:11] TESTING [08:11] soreau: haha, is there any replacement for it? [08:12] h00k it's not killing the process [08:13] i have followed the grub 2 instructions word for word... i still think that startup manager has done something to it and i can reconfigure it correctly.. i don't know [08:13] blue112: thanks [08:13] hook: thanks [08:13] Psinetic: find the process ID in system-monitor, 'sudo kill -9 [processid]' [08:13] isolat3dsh33p: There is the free implementation, gnash, though I haven't ever tried it. It's typically easier to wait for the proprietary plugin to d/l videos to /tmp/Flash* then play then with a capable player like mplayer [08:13] soreau, isolat3dsh33p, Gnash isn't ready for every flash appplications, I've tried it. [08:14] fafa [08:14] isolat3dsh33p if you are having problems clicking in flash with compiz enabled there is a fix. I think you just need to uncheck Undirect Fullscreen Windows in Compiz Config Settings Manager.

[08:25] cyberjorge: nothing wrong with it [08:25] yeah... it's been a pain using this laptop for the moment... even the keyboard itself is a pain [08:25] Ohan_: that sounds like your BIOS is looking to your phone as a boot device and is getting confused. check your BiOS settings. [08:26] i wouldn't recommend buying this laptop...

[08:27] karma_police, wait looking [08:27] k [08:27] mukehs when it says 'do what you have to do' just do the apt-gets [08:28] karma_police, try sudo grub-install hd0 [08:28] others, will this work?

[08:29] karma_police, did it return to prompt? it maight be writing [08:29] renee the easiest thing to do is to burn all your copy protected music to CD in windows and then re-rip them to MP3 to remove the copy protection. [08:29] no prompt [08:29] karma_police, hard disk light is on? [08:29] no [08:30] karma_police, restart once to see if its done [08:30] EastDallas: That would make sense, if the music was actually physical discs...this is concerning my almost 2GBs purchased music from iTunes itself. I have found a way to save the mp4 or whatever it's called as a regular file. [08:31] EastDallas: But it's still encyrpted to Apples iTunes. Is there any alternative that can read that file format yet that will run on Linux? [08:31] karma_police, restart once to see if its done [08:31] thanks a lot guys [08:31] trying that link again [08:31] i'm having a problem. gyachi keeps logging in and out constantly and i can't login. i know the pass and user are correct b/c it works in pidgin. ubuntu 9.10 [08:32] 64bit [08:32] karma_police, did you do sudo update-grub after reinstalling it? [08:32] renee What I'm saying is that there's no way to deal with DRM protected music from iTunes in Ubuntu outside of running iTunes via wine. You can go into itunes on a windows machine and burn all of that 2GB to CDs then rip those same CDs to MP3 to defeat the copy protection. That's the only way you are going to be able to manage these files using ubuntu. [08:32] anybody doesnt download anything, my download speed is too low. just 2 KB/s [08:32] Renee: Unfortunately no, apple is still holding out on itunes for Linux. The suggested method is to burn/export the music to CD (which makes it wav) then re-rip as FLAC or whatever. [08:32] Renee: (That's actually the way apple suggests, ironically enough) [08:33] renee have you tried installing iTunes using wine? Apparently some people have gotten it to work. [08:34] Haven't even tried wine yet honestly. [08:34] Thanks so very much for your help!

[08:49] where is your attempt failing? [08:50] Daemonis, I have a little trick if you are interested. [08:50] i believe you need jdk [08:50] c0ld_: you into java programming too? [08:50] then y you want to try to break? [08:50] Curly_Q, sure [08:50] This application requires Java 2 SDK, Standard Edition (1.5 or later). Enter a path to a Java 2 SDK (For example: /user/jdk1.5/bin).

[08:52] 6-15-1 is the only package installed out of the 3 [08:52] c0ld /usr/lib/jvm is the path [08:52] search there and you will get the jdk path [08:52] ok [08:53] In other words, when you save the page in an editor, you can actually edit it as if you wrote the code. [08:53] now which one do I want lol openjdk [08:53] hey guys help me to find out which service starts the krb524 thing....i wanna stop it [08:53] Aye Curly_Q, but will apache2 server and .flv video format in a code do it?

[09:04] i had the problem initially but it was only occasionally [09:05] kuttans, i did chmod 777 and it would only do that folder only [09:05] kuttans, i didn't want to do it for every single folder [09:05] kuttans, chmod -R solved it thx [09:05] what exactly does chmod do?

[09:08] <|Osiris> kuttans: wget has parameters for htaccess [09:08] <|Osiris> ? [09:09] yeah Osiris, check out the man page of wget you can do wonders with that [09:09] or else try httrack its a good sw [09:09] how to install compiz-fusion in meps.. all i get is package not found! [09:09] what is meps cgroza? [09:09] cgroza: in what? [09:10] anyone know a good avi/mpeg/other to .FLV converter? I tried Avidemux but got errors when trying to run it, and I did it once from the terminal with ffdshow but that required a lot of confusing code I found and don't remember lol.... [09:10] kuttans, MEPIS === dfitzpatrick is now known as Draconis [09:10] cgroza: you need to be in their support channel, this is Ubuntu support, it's different [09:10] cgroza im sorry im not aware of what it is, if you can throw some light on that then i may be of some help i guess [09:10] so where is the support chanel [09:10] ? [09:10] kuttans: MEPIS is a distro [09:10] cgroza: try #mepis ? [09:10] kuttans, one more question when i do chmod -R 777 /mnt i can only read everything but cannot execute [09:11] ohh ok, you can download the source and compile if you wish its there in their website [09:11] kuttans, i assume it changed permissions for all the folders but not the files within the folder [09:11] kuttans, then i tried chmod 777 * but it fails [09:11] q0_0p: -R changes perms for everything [09:11] <|Osiris> kuttans: it works! [09:11] <|Osiris> thanks [09:11] -R do it for everything found in the folder [09:11] Daemonis, yeah! Check this one out: And remember where you learned it from: http://www.effectmatrix.com/total-video-converter/ [09:11] may be the file you wanna execute need some root permission [09:12] ardchoille, says operation not supported [09:12] Is there a reason why ubuntu would suddenly start running slower? [09:12] welcome |Osiris [09:12] thanks :D [09:12] q0_0p: what operation? I didn't give you a command [09:12] q0_0p if you know the exe well enough then use sudo [09:13] kuttans, but i dont want to use sudo everytime [09:13] kuttans, i just want to play mp3s through mplayer [09:13] kuttans, that would suck to type in sudo every time for that :) [09:13] if you are using ubuntu desktop then right click and select play [09:13] q0_0p: you shouldn't have to use sudo. is the drive being mounted as rw (read/write) or ro (read only)? [09:13] ardchoille, its being mounted as non readable [09:14] ardchoille, only root can read it [09:14] q0_0p: There's your problem [09:14] ardchoille, after doing chmod -R 777 then i can read it [09:14] and for just playing a song you dont need a 777 permission [09:14] ardchoille, but [09:14] so no one to tell me about krb524 [09:14] ardchoille, the files within the folder permissions cannot change [09:14] kuttans: perhaps no one knows? [09:15] i read that its a service to change the kerberos 4 ticket to kerberos 5 and it occupy port 4444 [09:15] Google is your best friend :D [09:15] ardchoille, ah how do i mount the drive as rw? [09:15] google sometime behaves like a fool [09:16] q0_0p did you ever tampered udev-rules files?? [09:16] kuttans, i dont think i ever did [09:16] bcoz by default all usb drives are mounted as rw until unless you flagged it as readonly [09:16] kuttans, i'm not using ubuntu [09:16] udev-rules is almost common for all distros [09:16] q0_0p: What are you using? [09:16] archlinux [09:16] i kind of like it [09:17] starting off using ubuntu though [09:17] q0_0p: You need to be in their support channel, this is for ubuntu support only [09:17] ardchoille, my bad sorry [09:17] ok seems i should leave from here let me try google more [09:17] will come back if i get it [09:17] ....if you open and html file and ubuntu tells you it's an executable, is that bad? [09:18] q0_0p: the reason I say that is because any advice you get from this channel may cause further problems since you're in a different distro entirely [09:18] Daemonis, if you open up any file without knowing what it is: YES! IT IS BAD. Don't DO IT!! [09:19] does anyone know how i can find out the firmware of scsi/raid controllers in ubuntu? [09:19] firmware version i mean [09:19] Lol, I know what it is... It's for JW player, their readme file. It just struck me as strange since it said it was executable. [09:19] Daemonis: pen a terminal and do: file /path/file [09:20] that should give you a hint [09:22] Pirx, Only because I like you, I will share this with you.

I have a PEAK USB TV STICK, I have plugged it in and liturally don't know where to go from here. How do I get tv? I'm using Ubuntu. Thank you in advanced. [09:28] actually I think it's a problem that my firefox won't download the add-ons [09:29] since they seem to actually be able to run them fine [09:29] they just won't update them [09:29] hi all, I'm having a bit of trouble with my mouse pad on my Latitude E5500 on ubuntu 9.10 recently, it doesn't recognise the mousepad unless I have a usb mouse plugged in too on boot it seems. This has only happened in the last few days, not sure which update did it... [09:30] LewisDre4m: install some tv program like mythtv or elisa and see if it can find the tuner [09:30] oh ok. Mythtv? [09:30] LewisDre4m, be patient with yourself. The Peak USB stick is just a Flash drive. It is not the end of the world.

[09:35] Add medibuntu repo, then install the codecs from the Mythbuntu Control Center... [09:35] Is there a way to convert a .pdf file to text? [09:35] /var/log/mythtv [09:35] If so, how? [09:35] I don't have a tv so my computer is my tv. So quite imporaant. I'll iunstall mytghbuntu now. [09:36] LewisDre4m: that's cool what's your tuner card? [09:36] ardchoille: some pdf editors can save as text, the formatting may be messed up though [09:36] FisherPrice70: It is a PEAK USB TV STICK [09:36] does anybody know why my screen would be freezing and stalling? I installed ubuntu today and i have the nvidia driver installed and active... [09:36] slim: Missed the beginning of your query but have you tried altering the video out in vlc? [09:37] FisherPrice70: in tools under messages? i looked and it is empty [09:37] MikeChelen: Can your ecommend one that is in the repos? [09:37] oh, slim and LewisDre4m there's a REALLY good irc channel over at #mythtv-users [09:37] ardchoille: try pdfeditor, xournal, open office, or scribus [09:37] Ok Thank you.

[09:38] ardchoille: also try printing to postscript file, and look for something able to read that [09:39] LewisDre4m: how much memory does the system have? [09:39] My other machine has 16GB this one has 1GB so I wasn't sure lol [09:39] MikeChelen: ah, ok [09:39] slim: for the log files you might need to get into the console and type "tail /var/log/mythtv/mythfrontend.log" [09:39] andrew46: if i were to change the video out what would i change it to? [09:40] LewisDre4m: somewhere between 2-3x the system memory is usually fine [09:40] MikeChelen: Thank you [09:40] slim: x11 is usually a safe choice [09:40] LewisDre4m: can you do a 'lsusb |grep dvb' at the terminal [09:40] watch the system monitor to see if the swap gets maxed out [09:40] ardchoille: I thinkg in xpdf-utils is the /usr/bin/pdftotext command, never used it though [09:40] FisherPrice70: I have Mythbuntu up now. What do I do with it lol? [09:41] run it? [09:41] isn't there anyway I can prevent the user from deleteing the "recent documents" history ? [09:41] FisherPrice70: Can we go private chat?

[10:14] i'm using unr, and the "taskbar" if positioned on the left/right does not properly show the running applications - and i quiet often have configuration windows where i cant reach down to the "OK" button cause its out of screen. any hints? [10:15] it says yes [10:15] any other things i can do? [10:16] karma_police, are you planning on staying with 9.10, if not grub2 would be your best bet as 10.4 is going to be grub2 [10:16] when i give password on Nessus it gives Login failed... i have entered password correctly... [10:16] and a lts [10:16] ffffff: minimise the amount of other processes running? why? is it slow, or does it glitch?

[10:19] this is making me sad [10:19] ffffff: you've installed the proprietary driver? [10:19] i thought you were... thanks btw... since i have installed win7 now is it safe to choose grub2 with the new update? [10:19] karma_police, but i havent had the chance to work with win7 yet so cant tell you anything about it. [10:19] how to check if nmbd process should start at boot?

[10:46] so i will now research dd , grip, oggenc, and lame to see if they will work for me on ubuntu 9.10 [10:46] no. [10:46] when i inserted the Ubuntu USB bootable disk it says boot error.... can i get the solution for this??? [10:46] jerico: It'll certainly do anything you need it to do, and then some. [10:46] ampris: just grip will do, oggenc or lame, or flac, are called by grip [10:47] ty [10:47] jerico: i'd be more concerned about maintaining power and connectivity [10:48] jerico: depending on what a home-server is doing of course....

Only other server install I have done has been Windows Small Business [10:53] ampris: in X we use shift insert, or middle click [10:53] ampris: it's much better.

[10:53] hi all. i'm migrating an existing installation to another hard drive. i partitioned it, dd-ed root and home partitions over, and now i'm chrooted into that new drive from a live disk. i'm now trying to install grub correctly. it doesn't seem to put the right uid's into grub.cfg, what do i do wrong? [10:53] [and to copy you just select text, no need to ctrl-c [10:54] soreau: Yes. [10:54] diverse_izzue: uuid?

I am currently on 9.10, and i can burn it fine, well [10:55] soreau: Nope. Should I do that? [10:55] diverse_izzue: considered just putting the right one in? [10:55] soreau: I'm working from the installed version now. [10:55] it was first a .daa, so i tried to use powerisos linux tool for converting [10:55] soreau: I'll try that, thank you! [10:56] so that gave me no bootable copy, so i tried extracting the daa and making it an iso [10:56] on another note I am building a linux box for my kid and have come across Qimo for kids ... anyone have anything to say about this dist [10:56] im not sure what im missing but I cannot for the life of me burn a bootable cd in ubuntu [10:56] cast: i could do that of course... i just figured there should be a 'clean' way of doing it [10:56] other than in grub.cfg and /etc/fstab, are there other places i need to adjust the uuids? [10:56] moreover, I dont know how to check outside of a virtual machine and im tired of wasting time and blank discs [10:57] however the iso does mount in ubuntu just fine, I just cant get it to be bootable [10:57] can't you just right click an image file and click write to disc to create a bootable disc? [10:57] jerico: yea, but its an image [10:57] i tried that though [10:57] i also tried burning it like a should burn an image [10:58] and extracting the source daa and making a new iso [10:58] when i aminserting my USB modem it is mounted as /dev/sr1... how to connect as /dev/ttyUSB0 [10:58] !enter | nigtv [10:58] nigtv: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!

[10:59] nigtv: have you tried burning at a slower speed? [11:00] jerico: i burn OS isos usually at 1x [11:00] if i have the time [11:00] sorry enter thing again lol, yea i burned all of my tests tonight at under 4x [11:00] nigtv, did you first check the iso against the md5 ? [11:00] nigtv: what are you using to burn the image? [11:01] airtonix: yes, I did :/ [11:01] nigtv, and have you tried burning other iso ?

I would love to switch my media box over to ubuntu but i play 2 instances of wow on that computer [12:00] ampris: you can use WINE [12:00] WINE is known to run WOW very well [12:00] CSHadowRun: wow that rocks [12:00] ampris: i've played 6 instances of WoW in wine [12:00] very cool ... thank you [12:00] CShadowRun: Don't you need new kernel updates? [12:00] Multiboxers unite, yo ;) [12:00] Hello [12:00] jpds: true, that's my debian server, hehe [12:01] Hello [12:01] wow i like the sound of htat [12:01] any suggestions for reading material on boxing wine and wow ? [12:01] ampris: it runs flawlessly when i played, CPU tends to be a bottleneck in the large cities [12:01] ya [12:01] ampris: yea, hit up http://appdb.winehq.org and search for world of warcraft [12:01] kk ty [12:01] CShadowRun: I recommend not to "show up" uptimes shorter than 1 year (;) [12:01] lol [12:01] Tm_T :( [12:02] ampris Also if you are able to spend a little money Cedega plays it even better than Wine [12:02] Pulseaudio gets crazy from time to time. Especially when high loads (make -j2, linking, ...). The audio gets corrupted and sometimes stopping and playing again solves the problem but sometimes it does not. [12:02] i want to run a virtual machine on my hard drive to use VirtualBox, i make steps orderly. when i come "Virtual Disk locate and Size" step, it askes me "Locate", i select one partition without Ubnutu system. but doesnt permit me. why?" [12:03] EsatYuce, Is the partition without Ubuntu NTFS? [12:03] Tiders: don't recommend cedega to people [12:03] and no it doesn't [12:03] is the partition mounted? [12:03] ampris: if you want better, get crossover [12:03] CShadowRun, Why am I not allowed to recommend things to people? [12:04] Tiders, it is ext4 filesystem [12:04] EsatYuce, Thats your problem [12:04] i wonder if i could run all my clones in some kind of text mode [12:04] is crossover Free? [12:04] Tiders: cedega is an old ripoff of wine before they got the licensing sorted out, they never contribute, they use an ancient implementation of directx, and it's crap [12:04] EsatYuce, You cannot install Windows to an ext4 system [12:04] Tiders, : what must i do? [12:04] Crossover is good, they contribute to the wine community, and they maintain stability [12:04] How can I use the sound preferences from 9.04 in 9.10. The 9.04 version had functionality I really would like back. [12:04] Tiders, i want to run Ubnutu in my virtual machine [12:04] CShadowRun, I like it I find it a great program and lots of others do as well... Ill recommend what I please thanks we have free speech where Im from. [12:05] Tiders: well, ok, if you like to recommend 'ugly' software, go for it [12:05] EsatYuce, Hmm well you have to create a virtual hard disk [12:05] Tiders, : how? [12:05] crossover is proprietary, so has no place here. [12:05] it gives me problem === jocke is now known as _psychy [12:05] cast crossover supports wine major, it's an open source company [12:06] crossover also comes with support... [12:06] they've contributed thousands of patches to wine, and fund most of the developers [12:06] tiders: i am explaining everthing one by one, if you want to listen me [12:06] crossover is <3 [12:06] You guys are so freaking stupid about proprietary stuff... This isnt Debian Ubuntu does allow proprietary software [12:06] CShadowRun: and? crossover is still proprietary [12:06] Tiders: ? [12:06] win 48 [12:06] cast, only slightly :) [12:06] Tiders: way to generalise smart guy [12:06] and the good they do certainly outweighs the bad [12:07] "Ubuntu core applications are all free and open source. We want you to use free and open source software, improve it and pass it on." [12:07] how do I mount a samba share that is accessible by the file system, instead of a "virtual" icon in the desktop? [12:07] sounds like ubuntu wants me to use non-proprietary software [12:07] indeed they do :) [12:07] and wine is good, but sometimes you need commercial support, crossover is the best option for that [12:07] anyone can explain why the system is borked after the _fresh_ install? how can I fix it? [12:07] cast: noo - only core ubuntu is open source, multiverse is free for all [12:08] mr_mustard: mount -t cifs -o [options here including username password etc ] //server/share /mount/point [12:08] mr_mustard: see man mount for details [12:08] frogzoo: what exactly are you disagreeing with? [12:08] CShadowRun, Explain why Wine has bugs playing WoW then and it crashes for me (Crossover Games as well) and Cedega runs better than Windows [12:08] frogzoo: what i pasted with from the ubuntu front page? [12:08] mr_mustard: BTW the "virtual" mounts as you call them are accessible in cli via ~/.gvfs/ [12:08] cast: ubuntu/canonical has no foss axe to grind [12:08] Tiders: no clue, cedega should run worse, WoW's always run perfectly for me in wine. [12:08] * cast palms face [12:09] i want to run Virtual machine on my hard drive, [12:09] frogzoo: fine, ignore the ubuntu front page.

Not thing [12:16] cast, I just mean everyone feels they have to say things against it as soon as its mentioned [12:16] Tiders: i never made a death threat either, i just feel that you should use the open source alternatives instead of the proprietary ripoff [12:16] indus, : i installed the VirtulaBox in my computer [12:16] maybe as users you guys don't unerstand what a pain in the ass it is dealing with proprietary packages, being forced to weight for upstream to fix things...sometimes taking years for them to do it, [12:16] CShadowRun, And I would if Crossover hadnt ripped me off [12:16] indus, : but i cant create a virtual disk [12:16] uh, some english fail :( [12:16] heh [12:17] <_cb> After applying package updates to Ubuntu 9.10 my resolution changed to 800 X 600 and System-->Preferences-->Display does not give me 1024 option.

[12:46] EricTheHax: Try "man wacom-tools" or "wacom-tools --help" [12:47] anyone? [12:47] Emanon, only way in karmic to control the login sound is via editing the gconf files of the user 'gdm' [12:47] SuperUser|David: there are options in the libnotify plugin config menu in plugins menu of pidgin [12:47] i tried that already DUH command not found [12:48] yea i did that command you offered ill log out later and see if it worked its not critical just petty annoyance === sanderj_ is now known as Snadder [12:48] EricTheHax: wacdump, wacomcpl, wacomcpl-exec, xidump, xsetwacom. [12:48] Emanon: yes, but that is not what i am looking for. i was looking for something like changing the background color of the popup or something like that [12:48] could rm the sound file, or '> sound.wav' it [12:48] ahh idk how to change the pop up theme other than to change desktop theme perhaps [12:48] ::You have 2 broken packages on your system! [12:48] Use the "Broken" filter to locate them. [12:49] hello, I need help with glipper. can someone help me? [12:49] SuperUser|David, you can not modify the theme of libNotify (yet) [12:49] airtonix, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=341607 [12:49] what should i do [12:49] You have 2 broken packages on your system! [12:49] Use the "Broken" filter to locate them. [12:49] airtonix, it is possible with gconf [12:49] mine: the 'synaptic' package manager tool has a 'status -> broken' filter i belive.. [12:49] now you know ;) [12:49] airtonix: but why does the popup look different on karmic? [12:50] cast: does this error message give you any hint about usb problem: Module ehci_hcd not found? [12:50] mine: oh wait its in 'custome filters' 'broken' [12:50] SuperUser|David, different to what ? [12:50] ok wacomcpl-exec brought up an app but it does not see my g-pen, which i was told i needed the wacom tools for even though in 9.04 it worked fine, sans the pressure and buttons [12:51] xrfang: dunno, if you can mount it manually - i doubt it [12:51] I just installed glipper through synaptic and want to ad it to the panel but it doesn't appear in the list when I say add to panel. please help [12:51] White_Pelican: perhaps its a normal application you run? [12:51] cast, although I can mount it manually, the charset is not correct, I tried codepage=936,iocharset=gb2312, but no luck [12:51] White_Pelican, did you restart gnome-panel first ? [12:52] no, airtonix [12:52] I didn't know I had to do that [12:52] White_Pelican, are you positive that it is mean to appear on the panel as an icon ? [12:52] how do I restart the gnome-panel? [12:52] White_Pelican: "killall gnome-panel" [12:52] it's my understanding, yes [12:53] White_Pelican, follow what leaf-sheep just mentioned [12:53] how is it that the libnotify plugin looks different in hardy and karmic? [12:53] what happens after killall? [12:53] SuperUser|David, because it is a different codebase [12:53] White_Pelican: i see it under 'Clioboard manager' in the add to panel listing here. [12:53] don't I have to restart it? [12:53] airtonix: dammit... ;-) [12:53] can anyone offer any insights as to why gnome-do might shutdown at random and refuse to start up properly afterwards necessitating my deleting all its config files and starting over with it? [12:53] White_Pelican, gnome-panel is setup in the gnome-sessions-manager to auto-restart when it dies [12:54] airtonix: thanks anyway. [12:54] I don't see the clipboard manager as an applet [12:54] White_Pelican, you can see "clipboard-manager' in your "add to panel' widget list ? [12:54] White_Pelican, can't* ?

[12:57] ddd [12:58] White_Pelican, dpkg -l | grep glipper === dmart_ is now known as dmart [12:59] ues it's installed, airtonix [12:59] White_Pelican, and you restarted gnome-panel for good measure ? [12:59] why does pcmanfm from lxde work in places manu instead of nautilus when I am in GNOME [13:00] Emanon, which version of gnome-do are you using ? (also which version of ubuntu too ) [13:00] this is very annoying because pcmanfm is useless [13:00] i runned a command "tar -xvvzf moi.tar.gz [13:00] " now how i can install the pachage ? [13:00] tobiasz: because lubuntu/lxde set pcmanfm as the default file manager.. I also found that annoying and removed pcmanfm [13:00] Ubuntu Alt 9.10 32 bit [13:00] let me check gnome do real quick [13:00] Emanon, ok next question : where did you install it from ? [13:00] tobiasz: ages ago there was a similer issue with kde/gnome installed on teh same systemn. at least that got fixed. [13:00] airtonix, killing gnome panel did the tric [13:00] thanks :) [13:01] White_Pelican, welcome [13:01] How can in install a package under ubuntu [13:01] next question :) how do I move an applet from where it is on the panel? [13:01] Dr_Willis thx man gonna check if removing pcmanfm gonna fix my places menu [13:01] White_Pelican, as a rule, anything that is going to end up as a gnome-panel-applet will require you to restart the gnome-panel in order for it to properly be seen in the 'add to panel' dialouge box [13:01] the file is yala-0.32.tar.gz [13:01] White_Pelican, drag and drop [13:01] ok I answer my own last question [13:02] White_Pelican: right click [13:02] and thanks for the info airtonix [13:02] White_Pelican: right click on it. theres a LOCK item you may need to check [13:02] How can in install a package under ubuntu the file name "yala-0.32.tar.gz" [13:02] airtonix: 0.8.31+dfsg-0~9.10 [13:02] I come from a kde environment [13:02] anouar: synaptic [13:02] anouar: depends on whas in the package. if its source you need to insatll the proper tools and compile it [13:02] Dr_Willis removing pcmanfm does also remove lxde-core [13:02] Emanon, one second ... also wher efrom ? standard repo or ppa ? [13:02] so this is kinda new to me [13:02] anouar: a tar.gz is just an archive file that may have anything in it [13:02] anouar: a .tar.gz isn't a package [13:02] and im not sure if this is the ubuntu one or their repository i think i might have their repo enabled your right [13:03] anouar: you should first check to see if it's in the synaptic package repository. if you've done that, you can unpack it by right clicking the file and selecting extract here. probably best to put it in its own folder before doing so. [13:03] anouar: extract it somewhere temporarily, look what's in it and report back [13:03] tobiasz: i removed all of lxde.. [13:03] Emanon, are you using it for the search and plugins feature or just for docky ? [13:03] frongzoo : thanks again so how can i install the content of this file [13:03] tobiasz: thats proberly a meta-package of some sort [13:03] both i like docky === dmart_ is now known as dmart [13:03] gtg, thanks to everyone for all your help [13:03] Hello [13:03] does anyone know where thunderbird saves mails etc by default? [13:03] and docky works on my moms box just fine so it might be i have the ubuntu repo on hers and their custom repo on mine [13:04] !netsplit [13:04] netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit [13:04] Emanon: the 'docky' dock is split off into its own stand alone dock now. :) theres ppa repos for it and updates about once a week === dmart is now known as Guest66760 [13:04] who does this stupid joke [13:04] how to use usb_modeswitch??? [13:04] ahhh, pulseaudio is frustrating me to death.. causing all my apps to crash :( [13:04] Emanon, i am using docky only but from ppa on same os as you ... no problems apart from it eating 100% cpu after resolution change (which is forced by exiting fullscreen opengl games ) [13:04] tobiasz: clarify what you mean. === Guest66760 is now known as dmart [13:04] yea it must be the source [13:04] got it already, it's ~/.mozilla-thunderbird [13:05] its uninstalled ill delete its configs and remove the custom repo and try again [13:05] I mean this mass quit is caused by some bored kid who has no life [13:05] totally forgot i was using the one from ubuntu tweak [13:05] drops ppl with 6667 port [13:05] Emanon, have a closer look at your /etc/apt/sources.list.d folder and maybe try do a clean install of gnome-do just from ppa [13:05] tobiasz: err.. that was a netsplit. i belive. === Sephis is now known as Sephis^Mathe [13:06] Dr_Willis I got used to 9.10 sound system just tommorow, I think in 9.04 it was much easier to record thing and such [13:07] Dr_Willis do you think you can make 9.10 have the 9.04 sound applications? [13:07] tobiasz: i rarely use those features. so no idea [13:07] tobiasz: i use pulse audio to make the laptop play out the Desktop machines speakers :) [13:07] Xchat is only for devian distros??? [13:07] Debian Distros?? [13:07] sri_: xchat is avail for most disrtos and even for windows [13:08] does anybody else experience frozen desktop/file browser when a shortcut in nautilus's places area to a network share is unavailable? [13:08] sri_: not at all [13:08] or know a workaround? [13:08] Dr_Willis: and osx [13:08] people, what editor do you use to create the html? [13:08] Dr_Willis how does it work? Laptop is a sound server that sends sound via network to a client computer that plays it? [13:08] notepad [13:08] tobiasz: basically [13:08] Dr_Willis that's damn cool :) [13:08] olvap geany, scite, gedit [13:08] Dr_Willis: I'm not sure application I use for the system. But sound works fine now. I didn't do anything D: [13:08] gotta love PA for routing sound [13:09] bet its hot for home media centers [13:09] * dare has had to kill PA at least a dozen times since this morning [13:09] ie: Linux MCE [13:09] tobiasz: you can even set up the ssytems to use the other box's mic to record if you wanted to. Or use its sound out as your mic in,.. === Guest95094 is now known as DaZ [13:09] and.. changing the volume when PA has frozen causes my gnome theme to die.. have to kill X [13:09] hi.. just been noticing 'notification' style windows appearing at top right have of late been just jibberish. anyone else seen this/got tips as to how to go about fixing it please? [13:09] PA has ruined my linux desktop experience :( [13:09] wow you might wanna fix that dare [13:09] :-/ [13:09] ditto for Windows dialog boxes when using wine [13:10] holy haiy stallman [13:10] *harry [13:10] Emanon: i'm going to see if other distro's are available which function without PA [13:10] hi.. just been noticing 'notification' style windows appearing at top right have of late been just jibberish. anyone else seen this/got tips as to how to go about fixing it please? [13:10] kubuntu works pretty well (provided you get 9.04) [13:10] sixtila: for windows? [13:10] what's PA? >; [13:11] PulseAudio [13:11] pathetic audio! [13:11] ah [13:11] lol dare [13:11] nice try dare still beat you [13:11] olvap nop, thats for ubuntu - for windows nothing is better than notepad++ [13:11] :P [13:11] and pa works like a champ in mandriva of course you have to use mandriva to profit from that [13:11] theres a channel for ubuntu netbook remix? [13:11] I use 'geany' in windows and in linux. [13:11] anyone know how I can get my totem player to find codecs... right now it only gives error msg [13:12] quit [13:12] Ive never had any luck with totem finding codecs [13:12] jiohdi: there is one codecs package [13:12] just download it :f [13:12] enable proprietary repos worked for me jiohdi === dmart_ is now known as dmart [13:12] Emanon: how do I do that? [13:12] Ramosa: Don't think there's a separate one for UNR. You can get help for UNR here. [13:12] sixtila: ha! [13:12] totem is garbage.. just uninstall it :-) [13:13] yea might try open synaptic click tools click repositories and check the checkboxes that arent checked jiohdi [13:13] olvap ?? [13:13] and then perhaps sudo apt-get install ubuntu-resricted-extras to get all the prop codecs and whatnot [13:14] hey hey room i have a problem w/ a repository or something [13:14] Hey, I'm not really sure how to install the Nvidia binary driver for Karmic. [13:14] calamity, ask [13:14] The first time I tried, I got a black screen upon reboot. [13:14] Failed to fetch cdrom://Ubuntu 9.10 _Karmic Koala_ - Release i386 (20091028.5)/dists/karmic/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz Please use apt-cdrom to make this CD-ROM recognized by APT. apt-get update cannot be used to add new CD-ROMs [13:14] reactor: I'm just outlining my previous issues. [13:14] Anyway, how do I install the Nvidia driver? [13:15] About partitioning: I have a netbook with 160GB harddisk.. 6GB partition exists with a windows recover. The rest of the space I want to divide about half'n'half for UNR and a possible future OS. So about 75GB partition for UNR.. but I need 2 partitions right? File system and SWAP .. Filesystem should be what? ext3? and swap? and what about primary and logical [13:15] calamity, oh rly? I have nvidia card on karmic but everything worx [13:15] you make sure you got the 185 not the previous version calamity [13:15] calamity: did you try fromharware drivers? [13:15] system >admin>hardware drivers [13:16] okay, thanks, I'll try that. [13:16] Ramosa: you don't need swap, and if you want to use swap you can use a swap file instead of a swap partition [13:16] Ramosa: ext4 is good ext3 if you wanna be prudent [13:16] Emanon, be prudent? that doesn't help much :) [13:17] ext4 is still technically experimental [13:17] Ramosa: ext3 was a fail and ext4 loses files [13:17] jfs! [13:17] Emanon it is not from what I know [13:17] ext3 has always been annoying slow for me [13:17] oh sorry i might be out of date with my info [13:17] so i wanna fail or lose files? [13:17] No Ramosa Daz was being a troll [13:17] Ramosa: there's like 15 filesystems [; [13:18] Emanon: nope [13:18] recently written files after hard reboot disappear. [13:18] Emanon: thank you, seems to be working [13:18] np jiohdi [13:18] ive never experienced that DaZ [13:18] ok, so what file system do I choose [13:18] ext4! [13:18] * Dr_Willis would like to refer people to the ext4 wiki page to read up on the pros/cons [13:18] of course that doesnt invalidate it just no experience with it [13:18] i did last month <: [13:18] Emanon: although, I found that spelling counts... copy pasting what you put did not work :) [13:19] Ramosa: ext3 if you want to be 'safe' ext4 if you want best speeds. [13:19] Okay, well I'm going to reboot. :\ [13:19] safety first [13:19] Ramosa: you could create another partition to keep your documents on [13:19] Ramosa: i use ext4 [13:19] thanks guys. [13:19] your right i misspelled restricted sorry [13:19] i do as well Ramosa never had problems with it [13:19] Emanon: np :) [13:19] only pros on ext is it will be convertable to btrfs. [13:20] if I dont make a swap partition, i have to do some manual work later to do a file for it? [13:20] Ramosa: yes [13:20] if you want to be safe, use zfs on fuse [13:20] Ramosa: id say make at least a 512mb swap partition. [13:20] if not, use ext4 [13:20] chris|: slow [; [13:20] although with a swap file you can easily resize it later i imagine [13:20] but safe :) [13:20] too slow [13:20] Dr_Willis, someone recommended to use a file swap instead [13:21] Ramosa: thats doable.. but i always make a 512mb swap partition,. [13:21] the most decent filesystem i've experienced is jfs [13:21] Ramosa: so do what you want. [13:21] !netsplit [13:21] netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit [13:21] hi [13:21] i have 16g swap just to be an ass (since twice ram is not needed with such high amounts of ram) [13:21] not like im hurting for hard drive space hehe [13:22] ^_^ [13:22] I'm running a dual core CPU and think I have installed 64-bit LTS OS with SNP kernel..but is there a way to confirm a) i'm 64-bit and b) I'm SNP kernel? [13:22] *SMP [13:22] still got 2.5tb left after an obscenely oversized swap [13:22] ???\ [13:22] perlmonkey: uname -a [13:23] alright.. I have 6GB restore partition (exists already, don't know if primary or logical), 75 GB UNR partition, 75 GB alternative OS partition and 512 mb swap.. should the 3 last partitions be primary or logical ? [13:23] thanks [13:23] Ramosa: doesn't matter [13:23] matters to me :) [13:23] ya dont matter [13:23] if it's an option it bothers me [13:23] Ramosa: Does not matter, but keep in mind a drive can have at most 4 primary, and if you want more than 4, then one of the primaries must be an extended partition. [13:23] but not for os [13:23] Linux server 2.6.24-19-generic #1 SMP Wed Aug 20 22:56:21 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux [13:24] well (and this is just my opinion) a netbook should have encrypted storage [13:24] is that 64-bit? [13:24] I allways recommend a swap >= ram [13:24] geirha_, you said extended.. but i see only primary or logical options [13:24] Ramosa: i always make them primary. unless i need more then 4 partitions [13:24] and what does #1 SMP mean [13:24] any notebook for that matter [13:24] Ramosa: logicaks are inside extended... [13:24] sixtila: but... there is no a program that i can give it a image and say it where goes my divs and the program give me back a template? [13:24] so it can take up hibernate or core dumps [13:24] Dr_Willis, so you make the first 4 primary, and 5 and onwards logical? [13:24] Ramosa: if you're using something as archaic as dos or windows xp it may not work on extended partitions [13:24] Ramosa: You make an extended partition, which is a special kind of primary partition. The extended partition can hold alot of logical partitions [13:24] Ramosa: if you need more then 4 . then one MUST be a extended. to hold the logicals [13:25] olvap u can use the visual studio then [13:25] m'kay.. well it seems I need 4 partitions in total.. so primary then [13:25] hey all. [13:25] or you can just make one boot partition one LVM2 partition and as many logical volumes as you want [13:25] nobody can really explain primary and logical drives since noone knows what diff it makes in real world [13:25] Hi, I'm running a dual core CPU and think I have installed 64-bit LTS OS with SNP kernel..but can anyone confirm a) i'm 64-bit and b) I'm SNP kernel from my uname output: Linux server 2.6.24-19-generic #1 SMP Wed Aug 20 22:56:21 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux [13:25] okay, rebooted, and I got a message saying "Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module" [13:25] perlmonkey: thats 32 bit OS [13:25] Emanon, grub2 can boot from lvm2 [13:26] :-/ [13:26] perlmonkey: that's 32-bit [13:26] perlmonkey: yeah [13:26] without a boot partition chris? [13:26] is it dual core? [13:26] or it will say x86-64 [13:26] yes [13:26] calamity: what card, what drivers [13:26] oh didnt know that [13:26] Emanon, no clue how to make a boot partition or LVM2.. but I know that the restore partition is linked to the netbooks BIOS.. i press f4 during startup to boot that one [13:26] which one is good 9.10 or 9.04? [13:26] and 9.10 uses grub2 default right? [13:26] DaZ: I can find the card, but how do I check the exact driver? [13:26] yes, it does [13:26] calamity: did you install any other nvidia drivers before? if so, you need to completely remove them [13:27] perlmonkey: "cat /proc/cpuinfo" - check the "flags", see if you can find lm flag [13:27] thanks chris| [13:27] ok [13:27] calamity: and pastebin /var/log/Xorg.log [13:27] sixtila: but that is for windows! [13:27] and I love it :) [13:27] calamity: you don [13:27] ehh [13:27] perlmonkey: it wont matter smp kernel or not, same download [13:27] u know if it autoconfigs that in the alternate install disk chris| [13:27] how do you tell if you have the nvidia drivers installed? [13:27] perlmonkey: all are smp enabled [13:27] calamity: you don't know what drivers did you install? >: [13:27] perlmonkey: those are the cpu's capabilities. The lm flag stands for X86_FEATURE_LM, the Long Mode (64bit) support. If you can find the "lm" flag among your CPU flags, this means you're looking at a 64bit capable processor. [13:27] sixtila yes, have to tried with modx or drupal - [13:27] DaZ, well other than Nvidia, no. [13:28] thanks for partition advice [13:28] Emanon, it does, but i install mostly from desktop disks [13:28] olvap you can try content management like podx or drupal for linux, they are open sources [13:28] or does it expect a boot partition but allow for not [13:28] I used the hardware driver tool under Administration [13:28] ok cool [13:28] i see it! [13:28] it's much nicer on the x configs [13:28] calamity: version is important [13:28] and your graphic card model :f [13:28] so does that mean the CPU's both cores are enabled in Ubuntu and working? [13:28] !who | calamity [13:28] calamity: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [13:29] perlmonkey: of course they are [13:29] cause i like having an encrypted lvm filesystem with a removable mbr (via memory card) on a 4 disk raid0 and thats rather annoying to do on a desktop install hehe [13:29] cool thanks a lot guys [13:29] you can use livecd installation if you partition the lvm2 from the command line before strating the installer [13:29] i just need to install 64bit version now to get best performance? [13:29] perlmonkey: why are you worrying about the cores? [13:29] perlmonkey: yes! [13:29] indus: sorry, i'm on msn and irc at the same time. XD [13:29] I wasn't sure if it was working or not [13:29] yea i know but i always screw up the command line enc-lvm-raid hehe [13:29] hello people!!! [13:29] specially on slackware [13:30] perlmonkey: there's no difference between 32 and 64 when it comes to performance. [13:30] all dual or more cores are supported automatic [13:30] ^^ [13:30] perlmonkey: u can even see how much of which core u r using ;) [13:30] for an average user at least. [13:30] DaZ: there is [13:30] 0,01337%! [13:30] hi Ruy [13:30] will 64bit be a big performance improvement, i was a bit disappointed with this sys as it seemed to run very slow, slower than my old single core [13:30] 64bit makes sense on 4+ gb of ram [13:30] indus: the card is Geforce MX/MX 400 [13:30] mat|r woah how [13:30] iv got a big problem here [13:30] perlmonkey: deopends on the task. i find video reencioding much faster [13:30] calamity: aah old one what driver did you install from hardware drivers? [13:30] DaZ: why should I bother with 64bit then? [13:30] calamity: and driver is 9x ? :f [13:31] Ruy care to elaborate? [13:31] !64 [13:31] AMD64 and EMT64 are fully supported architectures on Ubuntu. See http://tinyurl.com/3jkole and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amd64 for more information. [13:31] perlmonkey: only you have too much ram [13:31] if [13:31] I have 2GB [13:31] Or if you want to do lots of media encoding [13:31] perlmonkey: so it's pointless [; [13:31] perlmonkey:go for 64 bit ,its good [13:31] but i want to upgrade to 4GB [13:31] perlmonkey: then use what you want. [13:31] ok [13:31] indus: It says "version 96" under hardware drivers. [13:31] perlmonkey: i use 64bit on all my machines now. [13:31] calamity: yeah is it enabled? [13:31] perlmonkey: you can change to 64 if it will make you feel better [13:32] i will move to 64-bit [13:32] is there a way to run wget in simulation mode? So it would not actually download a file, just see if it would work? [13:32] perlmonkey: also, apps written in 64 bit take full advantage of it, like all of todays games [13:32] download to /dev/null perhaps? hehe [13:32] cool [13:32] csaba, so you want to se if the file is downloadable? [13:32] *see [13:32] yes [13:32] and apps written in 32 need shedload of 32bit dependencies. [13:32] then use curl [13:32] like a dry run [13:32] perlmonkey: also , it makes you feel better with 64 bit :) [13:32] perlmonkey: for kde u have a widget , u can lauch, for gnome.. i never tried the sysinfo panel on dual core, but its shows cpu 1 cpu 2 [13:33] I actually run a wget on a server every minute to see if its still online [13:33] indus: not currently, i'm running in low-graphics mode because it failed to initialize. last time, I edited the xorg.conf file and replaced the nvidia with nv, but that's obviously a temporary solution because I would like to have the advanced drivers working. [13:33] right now it's done with wget [13:33] calamity: so change it back to nvidia again [13:33] indus: it would just make me fee powerfull on 64 [13:33] it has changed already, since i last changed it to nv. [13:33] calamity: /var/log/Xorg.log [13:33] mat|r: yea [13:33] or Xorg.log.old [13:33] i have an application that requires that mysql-config placed in my path, anybody know how to do that or what package im supposed to install? [13:33] or something like that :f [13:33] 64-bit is the future [13:34] so we must be current [13:34] perlmonkey: arm is the future. [13:34] DaZ: just a second, about to pastebin [13:34] calamity: after using nvidia , restart x server with alt - SysRq-K [13:34] arm was invented by the guys who brought us the Acorn PC [13:34] back in the early 80s [13:35] isn't this getting a little ot?

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. ndiswrapper -l shows this: http://codepad.org/waGbQDZY - iwconfig: http://codepad.org/5FsQaWxj [15:11] - 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 for reading. [15:12] where can i go to get help setting up tor for karmic? [15:12] How hard would it be to port mac os x apps to linux? isn't both unix?

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [15:13] well, that factoid wasn't all i thought it would be [15:13] Masumex: try looking at the wiki [15:13] !wiki [15:13] kanzie: still there? [15:13] http://wiki.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu development documentation wiki. If you are looking for system help, please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community - the Ubuntu community documentation.

Mac apps are proprietary for the most part [15:14] kanzie: couln't it be that you have to change the values in php.ini in /etc/php5/cli directory? [15:14] Vooloo: so i'm gonna go with impossible === luis__lopez is now known as luis_lopez [15:14] damn dude, i wanna boot intio linux :C [15:14] oCean_: would that affect how its running in apache? [15:14] kanzie: i *think* there are different php.ini files for different purposes [15:14] yes [15:15] I have been changing in the one used by apache [15:15] I have ubuntu karmic (new to linux) and want to get tor. i am a noob at linux and need really specific directions. how would i do this? [15:15] kanzie: and that worked, confirmed by phpinfo() right? So the setup script might use the cli/php.ini ?? [15:15] kanzie: just a guess here [15:15] hmmm [15:15] Gordi: can use /etc/network/interfaces to get a connection, then install the app then remove the config. You can also use your install CD as a repo to install the app [15:15] Masumex: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TOR [15:15] oCean_: well, I have other pages running php hitting the same snag so Im afraid that wont cut it!

[15:17] Ljl, i dont get the [15:17] repositories to your /etc/apt/sources.list file: [15:18] help? [15:18] Masumex: repositories are sites that contain a collection of packages (software). the /etc/apt/sources.list file lists which repositories you have active on your system. right now, those are only the official Ubuntu repositories. you need to add the Tor ones [15:18] Masumex: so, edit the file by typing "gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list" in a terminal [15:18] yeah i suppose [15:18] ok let me try that [15:19] LjL, you use tor? [15:19] mezquitale: no [15:19] LjL, I was thinking of installing that on my laptop, I was wondering if I have to open port 9050 on my router [15:19] ok [15:19] did that [15:20] Masumex: you need to add those two lines to the file, then save it. [15:20] any specific place in the file? [15:20] Masumex, just read the guide on the tor site, configure you "sources.list" file and then add the GPG key [15:20] Masumex: the end would be better [15:20] thank you [15:21] and what about # signs? === aj_ is now known as Guest89926 [15:21] Which version of Ubuntu would be best for a fifteen year old Windows 7 user?

[15:22] thanks :) [15:22] kingsley: is that a 15 year old user, or a user who has been using win7 for 15 years ;) [15:22] all done with that [15:22] i think i can get the rest [15:22] thanx Ljl [15:22] Kingsley: what do you mean? [15:22] Masumex: type "sudo apt-get update", and then "sudo apt-get install tor tor-geoipdb" [15:22] CShadowRun: Thanks or asking. He's a 15 year old user. [15:23] kingsley: yea, latest version, make sure to talk him through alternatives to his windows applications, otherwise he'll just say "this sucks" and go back to windows [15:23] kingsley, does he/she want ubuntu? [15:23] ijk2m: I'm wondering which version of Ubuntu to download. [15:24] shubbar: Yes. [15:24] Kingsley: if you are already set on ubuntu as a distro, then just get the latest one. [15:24] kingsley, depends on your hardware ...old ..new .bleeding edge ? [15:24] Is the latest version 9.10? [15:24] yup, the latest version is 9.10 [15:24] BluesKaj: not really, the system requirements for ubuntu havn't changed in the past few years [15:25] BluesKaj: The hardware is about five months old, and it was average then.

I'll be right with you [16:19] th first one should be running but not rightly..that is my suggestion...certain erros appear on start-up [16:19] I see no other line that says it will live boot in version 9.10 [16:20] sacarlson, what joepublic9 means is that once the desktop appears don't run the icon labeled 'install ubuntu' if you don;t want to modify the hard rive [16:20] OH ok good enuf then airtronix [16:20] Thanks airtonix :) [16:20] here goes === nick_ is now known as Guest89914 [16:22] any oen around ?

[16:27] sacarlson Strange, I just did a clean install and it worked perfectly, you do a checksum on you cd? [16:28] rrittenhouse: Are you tried remote desktop connection?

All the articles I keep finding refer to disableing on the server side. But yet on a wiretrace I see the client side of the connection makeing all the PTR queries.??? This behavior just started with Ununtu 9.10 and it causes like 13 second delays during initial authentication. [19:26] I found the file (usr/......) but the new font files have no permission to be placed in the directory, how do I over-rule the permission denied and should I? [19:26] kuttans, No, i mean i want to be the server [19:26] oCean_, Thank you. But -- if you'll forgive me -- I'm not sure what you mean by "actual". Is that with or without the journal? Can anything be done with the journal? Can I control its size? Does the journal grow constantly? If so, what will happen when the disk is full? [19:26] crc32: why whould the client do a nslookup?

I suspect its new behavior where the Client Tries to determin the host name of the server. [19:27] LordBurrito: can you check the apache logs, [19:27] the: if you are installing font and don't need them to be available to all other users on the system, put them in ~/.fonts/ instead. [19:27] Does xorg.conf get backed up anywhere besides /etc/X11? Cuz I'm not seeing a backup file in /etc/X11 [19:27] kuttans: error.log mentions PHP5., that's all that's in there. [19:27] xiong: journal should only be something like 3% i think. At least not over 5 [19:27] kuttans, i already own a domain at a static ip address. But i'd like to be able to do something like dynamic1.mydomain.com and have it go to the dynamic1 ip address which is dynamic [19:27] kuttans: I'll look again [19:28] kuttans, basically i want to make my own dyndns website, except for personal use only [19:28] marks256: uh oh im sorry i completely mis understood [19:28] Its almost as if the client wants to store the host key of the remote machine by host name rather then IP is what I'm guessing. [19:28] oCean_, Then perhaps this oddity has nothing to do with the ext3 journal at all. What can account for the large discrepancy? [19:28] I'm a german. Is there a german Server?

Thanks for talking to me :) [19:31] kuttans, right. i figured as much. i'm just curious as to how the server its self would work [19:31] marks256: i have only a outliner am not very deep in how to configure. so you may need to consult some techies on that line [19:31] wvd, i know your using gnome and i didnt tell you to delete it either..that is how to get it back to gnome only and if thats now what you are wanting then you have to reinstall.

[19:32] oCean_: I figure this is supposed to be a new feature in SSH and I'm trying to disable it. [19:32] the: I think you could just create it then, and it will automatically be seen by the programs looking for fonts. [19:33] oCean_: I woulden't either but the wire trace shows it happening client side. The time for disbelief is over. [19:33] LordBurrito: hey are you having short open tags in that info.php file [19:33] oCean_, I should preface my remarks by saying that I have divided my drive into multiple partitions, with one of them being mounted at /home. This is /dev/sda6. Nautilus reports this as containing 13.9 Gb, with 29.0 Gb free. Other inquiries, such as df, report 51 Gb used and 29 Gb free. The discrepancy of 22 Gb is significant. [19:33] LordBurrito: the php file only having tags and not tags [19:33] "short open tags?" [19:33] crc32: well, the complaining about a new ip for a host is just the default behaviour, where ssh compares the ~/.ssh/known_hosts entries I think? [19:34] iand i have crtl-Hed it [19:34] oCean_, Sorry, my math is a bit fuzzy today. Discrepancy of 37 Gb! [19:34] kuttans: No, it's [19:34] quit [19:35] xiong: ah, yes indeed. [19:35] LordBurrito : can you please restart apache2 and check once [19:35] we are currently planning to strike back in #revenge4freenode +you all are welcome there :) [19:35] Hi i wanna to ask you something it is a 3-th time i do this but not good Answer from you there, how i can clear the pppoeconf, and to setup a new one cus i had to change setup new user and newpassword? [19:35] oCean_: Why am I seeing reverse lookups on the client side? [19:35] xiong: unfortunately I don't have an apropriate answer to this :s [19:36] oCean_: And clearly these uinanswered lookups are the cause of the delay? [19:38] crc32: tbh I never noticed that, and I'm on 9.10 since it came out. [19:38] Hi i wanna to ask you something it is a 3-th time i do this but not good Answer from you there, how i can clear the pppoeconf, and to setup a new one cus i had to change setup new user and newpassword? [19:38] K|nG: sudo pppoeconf [19:38] I do this [19:38] but that show me i find 2 CONFIG [19:38] i wanna to clear a 2 CONFIG [19:38] crc32: so I understand your question. But I don't really have the answer. [19:38] check this DasEi2 http://grab.by/19gd [19:39] That's Show to me now i wanna just to Clear it ALL and put new ONE from a NEW START do you understand me DasEi2 [19:39] !akonaditray [19:40] kuttans: I just did restart Apache and checked the logs. I'll do it again. [19:41] K|nG: edit /etc/network/interfaces then [19:41] anyone fancy helping me troubleshoot an nvidia problem? [19:41] DasEi2: remove all what have at Interface or what to do [19:41] ? [19:42] So it looks like /etc/modprobe.d/ndiswrapper folder has been deleted.. anyone knows how to fix this? [19:42] DasEi2: remove all what have at Interface or what to do [19:42] $ sudo du -hs /home tells me: 'du: cannot access `/home/xiong/.gvfs': Permission denied'; then it proceeds to tell me the total usage of the directory (=partition). Do you suppose that this thing, ~/.gvfs, which cannot be accessed even by su, is the cause of disk usage discrepancies? What can this thing be? [19:43] K|nG: I think you know which interface you want to use, so comment the other one [19:43] ls -ld /home/xiong/.gvfs says what? [19:43] DasEi2: but to set it from a new start i can REMOVE all text it is in Interface right [19:43] ? [19:43] does anyone know if there is any advantage to compiling the ipw2000 driver for intel wireless vs. using the ubuntu package? im having rather consistent "firmware errors" that disconnect me from the network, i've read this driver is known for this issue but it's annoying enough to try just about anything [19:44] xiong: ~/.gvfs/ is a FUSE mountpoint. And FUSE disallows other users to access it. [19:44] xiong: (That includes root.) [19:44] K|nG: yes, but not localhost [19:44] OK [19:44] Thanks [19:44] ILL restart my PC now and try to COnnect to internet ill hope to work it :D thanks DasEi2 [19:44] np [19:45] xiong: ~/.gvfs/ is where GNOME puts its network drive connections, for compatibility with programs that don't support GVFS. [19:45] Hi [19:45] grawity, So I gather from a short study. But this doesn't explain how it came to be there, since it's not clear to me what the practical use of it is, in user terms. Nor do I understand if it can account for 37 missing Gb of disk space. [19:46] xiong: How it came to be here - A GNOME application auto-created it when you connected to a network drive. [19:46] Somebody knows a soft / script on Ubuntu to capture position of mouse pointer ? [19:46] youph: try installing linux-backports-modules-karmic [19:46] youph: it has newer wireless modules [19:46] ok ty erUSUL [19:46] grawity, I need to study 'network drive'. That construction doesn't immediately parse. [19:46] is that a repository or an actual package [19:47] *sigh* split? [19:47] xiong: Eh, things such as FTP, and NAS, and such. Even if you have never used one, the ~/.gvfs/ mountpoint is still auto-created. [19:47] LordBurrito: http://announce.freenode.net/ [19:47] anyone know of a low level formatting tool for linux, i have a disk that thinks its 16gb when it is really 4gb [19:48] grawity, I get enough from the quick gloss to think this has nothing to do with my disk usage woes. [19:48] Graviton: Ah Christ. Haven't some of these idiots anything better to do with their time? [19:48] xiong: The practical use - if you connect to a network drive (well, maybe "network directory") using GNOME, ~/.gvfs/ allows you to access that connection from non-GNOME programs. [19:48] kn100, have you tried repartitioning it? [19:48] youph, yeah, it fails === Pupuser402 is now known as rahilm [19:48] the person who sent this POS to me has spoofed the number of sectors on it [19:48] xiong: And yes, it's really not related to disk usage. In reality, ~/.gvfs/ is empty, all contents are virtual. [19:48] grawity, Let's say it probably came up because I did some FTP; fine. [19:48] therefore reformatting just redoes the spoof. I need it to verify the number of sectors [19:49] Hi, WINE won't allow me to open a program I was able to open before. Am I doing something wrong? [19:49] kn100: Have you tried repartitioning it? (With 'gparted' or 'parted' or 'cfdisk') [19:49] what do you mean by spoofed sectors [19:49] So, where did my 37 Gb go? [19:49] grawity, gparted just formats it back to 16gb [19:49] youph, long story [19:50] kn100: You tried completely deleting all partitions and recreating them? [19:50] kn100, can you write 0s with dd [19:50] youph, long story short, evil chinese scammers make a usb pen look like its 16gb, when it is really another size, so when you upload over that size it looks like its been uploaded but if you try accessing the files it just fails [19:50] grawity, ^ [19:50] hey there I want to compile OTCL and when I type "sudo ./configure" it shows me this "configure: error: Installation of tcl seems incomplete or can't be found automatically. [19:50] Please correct the problem by telling configure where tcl is using the argument --with-tcl=/path/to/package" [19:50] hello ppl [19:51] kn100: Ah, in that case I really doubt there is any "low-level format" tool. They usually don't exist for flash-based drives. [19:51] dd is as "low level" as i know for writing to block storage devices kn100 [19:51] but I installed the tcl later .can anyone help me [19:51] can somebody tell me how to add acl to ubuntu karmic [19:51] ? [19:51] 1400 people in here and not one can help me. [19:51] grawity, i know there is a windows tool to do it [19:51] man [19:51] that counts and verifies the sectors and then formats them all [19:51] How do I make a flash drive I've inserted so it's not 'read-only'? [19:51] Hey guys, I have this new server. I have apache set up and I create web sites in /var/vhosts, I have also set up samba... what I would like to do is set up so me an the other devs can login via our normal user account do work right in /var/vhosts/* how can I do this? === homer is now known as Guest28925 [19:51] I should eat something [19:51] is there a good tutorial on getting pjirc to work properly on apache2 webserver? [19:51] would I basically create a new group say "devs" and chown that section to that group? [19:52] nobody [19:52] ?? [19:52] grawity, but installing windows is painful [19:52] When I use terminal to run a program with wine, I get this: adam@adam-notebook:~$ wine actoolkit [19:52] err:ole:CoGetClassObject class {dc1c5a9c-e88a-4dde-a5a1-60f82a20aef7} not registered [19:52] err:ole:CoGetClassObject no class object {dc1c5a9c-e88a-4dde-a5a1-60f82a20aef7} could be created for context 0x1. Why? [19:52] kn100: what about recreating the partition table? [19:52] kn100, man dd dovik, SElinux [19:52] kn100: You could try 'dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdc bs=1024' or something (replace /dev/sdc with your flashdrive), that would completely blank everything that Linux can write to. [19:52] Jamed, that might work [19:52] obscure: That'll work, yeah. [19:52] grawity, it can write to the fake sectors [19:52] When I use terminal to open a program with wine, I get this: adam@adam-notebook:~$ wine actoolkit [19:52] err:ole:CoGetClassObject class {dc1c5a9c-e88a-4dde-a5a1-60f82a20aef7} not registered [19:52] err:ole:CoGetClassObject no class object {dc1c5a9c-e88a-4dde-a5a1-60f82a20aef7} could be created for context 0x1.

[19:53] kn100: But, I have a feeling this was done by reprogramming the chip inside... [19:53] grawity, no no no [19:53] theres [19:53] kn100: it's small enough to paste here. [19:53] Flannel: ok thanks. [19:53] Manifest, it's also extremely annoying when pasted 6 times.

Other tools say 51 Gb used. But all agree there are only 29 Gb free. Where has my missing 37 Gb gone? How can I find out? [19:54] Manifest, people here help for free. if they can't help you, post on the forums. [19:54] Manifest: then wait, we all need help and they're doing their best to help people. [19:54] someone could help me i try to mount an iso files but it say that i use an ide sci driver and that i should use an sr0 or sda driver i understand nothing someone could help me? [19:54] Manifest: Have you considered the possibility that no one (of the 140 people who are awake) knows what's the problem? [19:54] yeah graingert is probably right, im sure the flash drive uses some firmware to actually map logical sectors to its banks of memory, you may have to find out more about that specific drive kn100 [19:54] grawity\* [19:54] ? [19:54] How do I make a flash drive so it isn't read-only and so I can put files onto it? [19:54] srry wrong person [19:54] youph, i am telling you, its easy to fix on windows. I have had to do this before [19:55] youph, I am always right [19:55] then why are you askin kn100 [19:55] kn100: Would you happen to have the Windows program available for download? (I'm interested) [19:55] youph, because I haven't touched windows in years [19:55] How do you get your sound Icon back on Karmic/Gnome? [19:55] youph: He would need to install WIndows. [19:55] wine? [19:55] grawity, yes, its HP format tool [19:55] Manifest: Wine specific errors are best asked about in #winehq [19:56] Ryann : own the mountdir to regular user, like sudo chown -R /media/YourMountpoint [19:56] the windows tool does the same thing as the linux one (gparted) but hpformattool actually checks the sectors exist [19:56] DasEi2: I'm in a ubuntu 9.04 live CD session. could you tell me what I'd type then? [19:56] Not sure who I was talking to before but It seems mdns queries where holding up SSH some how. I set hosts to only use files and dns in nsswitch.conf and the problem disappeard. [19:57] kn100: just run "sudo fdisk /dev/sdXY" and use the "o" command to recreate the partition table, then use "w" to write changes to disk, to test if recreating works [19:57] Ryann: enter just mount to get the current mountdir .. [19:57] how do I use the -Y option in stupid putty [19:57] Jamed, I will try it now [19:59] Is there a fix or workaround for the Remote desktop viewer not updating yet?

Anyone knows how to fix this? [20:16] Hi all [20:17] grawity, I have emptied Trash -- believe me, when I saw tens of gigs missing, it's the first thing I tried. This is actually /home/.Trash-0/, not ~/Trash-0/. I need to be su to fool with it. In any case, the sticky fingers of the utility, 'backintime', are everywhere. [20:17] mmm [20:17] I'm just learning this OS grew up with microsux products got tired of all the bugs. this is an awsome OS once ya learn your way around it [20:17] xiong: The '0' means that trash directory is owned by root :| You can nuke the entire thing safely, anyway. [20:17] I have a live ubuntu cd and I want to run it from my ram is this possible? [20:17] gwince, You may be right. I tend towards cargo cult shell operation, but I fight against that. [20:18] running a duel boot tho still love my pc based games [20:18] grawity, Which leads to the question of how all that stuff got there in the first place? [20:19] grawity, 'Safely' may be subject to interpretation. I wonder if my hamfisted setup of backintime has got my backups going there, or if (more likely and better) these are just all the old *expired* backups. [20:19] xiong: A program that stores backups in ~/.Trash? Seriously? [20:21] is there a way to run pc games using ubuntu? [20:21] besides sun's virtual box [20:21] grawity, It's all coming into focus, now. ~/.backups is 10 Gb all on its own. The rest of the 'missing' free space is, presumably, trashed, expired backups; backintime is throwing them out without throwing them away. [20:21] yay for issues! Once upon a time, I had a 'Network' icon in my places, and in my file manager. It is now gone. Can somebody shed some light on this?

Can I just put in the live-cd and it asks me for a reinstall? [20:25] Why wouldn't SMB://192.168.0.6 work as a dir location? [20:26] juiceman5000: bacause there's no sharename? [20:26] hmmm, no.. perhaps it should work [20:26] juiceman5000: Where exactly? In Nautilus? A particular program? Terminal? [20:26] wvd: it wont ask, but you can run the installer again and tell it to use the whole hd to install (if nothing else is on it) ot you can delete the ubuntu partition with it [20:26] wvd: *or [20:26] Anywhere, terminal, X-Windows, applications, etc [20:27] the location exists, i am on it right now on my windows box using just \\192.168.0.6 [20:27] juiceman5000: it won't work anywhere except something that knows about smb... nautilus for example [20:27] Jamed: First time I let the installer make the partitions (highest option), if I also do this, will it overwrite the ubuntu partition? Or create a third (also got windows) [20:27] other than that it should work though [20:27] I was playing with Rotate Cube and found that the top and bottom parts is ugly yellow and has no desktops. Is this shit just crappy or am I doing something wrong? [20:28] m0ar: just crappy [20:28] wvd: if you dont want windows to be deleted, then you have to remove the ubuntu partitions manually and tell the installer to install on "the largest free space" [20:28] juiceman5000: Linux does not have native support for such things. In terminal, accessing SMB/CIFS shares is usually done with 'mount.cifs'. GNOME and KDE both have their own libraries to support various networked filesystems - GNOME uses GIO/GVFS, KDE has Kio. [20:28] Jamed: or manually partition and tell the installer to reformat and use the old partitions [20:29] why I cannot save sources.list even with sudo?

[20:29] : /server irc.efnet.net [20:29] zcat[1]: It is, kinda. GVFS is an integral part of GNOME, you need to install 'samba' manually though. [20:29] quien trabaja con hph [20:29] zcat[1]: Oh? [20:30] ah ok Ive just found the bugreport for the toram problem [20:30] gedit - how to solve a problem with a plugin? 'Manage External Tools' is not showed in the tools tab [20:30] quien trabaja con php [20:30] hi. The question sounds silly but how to user arrays in dash? [20:30] *use array [20:30] zcat[1]: But again, GVFS only applies to GNOME applications. [20:30] !es [20:30] En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. [20:30] grawity, sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.lis [20:30] !es | brian24 [20:30] brian24: please see above [20:30] doubt: 'dash' as in the shell? [20:30] m0ar: the cube is just to attract doze noobs, for practical desktop switching there's super-E [20:30] : /server irc.efnet.net [20:30] grawity, allways work until now [20:30] Hello folks [20:30] grawity: yes [20:30] ginoscar: Stop, okay? === david is now known as Guest18395 [20:30] I'm a new user in Xubuntu. [20:30] ok thanks all byeeeeeeeeeee [20:31] : /server irc.efnet.net [20:31] I know the 'declare' keywords is gone [20:31] doubt: 'dash' is a clone of 'sh', NOT 'bash', and (as far as I know) it does not support arrays or any 'bash'-specific features. [20:31] ginoscar: try it with nothing (no : and no spaces at all) before the / [20:31] and I have a problem with the login screen. [20:31] doubt: 'dash' was made as a very lightweight shell. === PreZGN_ is now known as PreZGN [20:31] zcat[1]: Nah, I have my perfect switcher <3 No, it's not the cube :D [20:32] grawity: thanks for information. Do you know any dash-centric manual? [20:32] All I found was about bash. [20:32] m0ar: multiple monitors and a chair with wheels? [20:32] Sachse_Siechtum: maybe #xubuntu will help you better [20:32] doubt: man dash [20:32] ok thank you [20:32] doubt: Everything that applies to 'sh' (Bourne Shell) applies to 'dash' too. They both have manpages. [20:32] anyone here use zimbra [20:33] doubt: (well, maybe not everything, but most of the things.) [20:33] doubt: Btw, is there a big reason for you to use 'dash'? [20:33] zcat[1]: Baha, no [20:33] m0ar: My perfect switcher is wmii :D [20:33] grawity: Mine was :D [20:33] grawity: Then Multi-monitor kinda screwed me up [20:34] grawity: thanks, I was missing the point that dash is a 'sh'-compatibile. Well I installed some third party init.d script [20:34] m0ar: I like compiz; but the first thing I do is set four desktops wide and three deep and I only ever use the cube to impress windows users, most of the time I turn it off and just slide between desktops [20:34] is it possible to access root like a normal account, (albeit with sudo powers), or is the only way to use sudo in the command line [20:34] grawity: built for debian and they simply don't run [20:34] trying to get a TRENDnet TEG-PCBUSR gigabit PC card working. On insertion, "pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket0: pccard: CardBus card inserted into slot 0", "r8169 Gigabit Ethernet driver 2.3LK-NAPI loaded", but "r8169: eth1: link down", "ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth1: link is not ready" (same ethernet cable plugged into built-in NIC bring net right up). Any ideas? [20:34] the: yes. [20:35] the: ubuntu disables root by default for some reason, but you can enable it again [20:35] the: yes. 'sudo -s' for a root shell, 'sudo -i' for a full login. [20:35] !root | the: [20:35] the:: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [20:35] !root [20:35] zcat[1]: Cube is gay and not practically useful, a real windows switcher is. [20:35] grawity: I know it is possible to switch back to 'bash' but I was curious. :) [20:35] the: And if you really want, then you can easily figure out how to enable root's password. [20:35] gedit - does anybody has problems with 'Manage External Tools' ; it isn't showed in the tools tab [20:35] doubt: 'dash' is used for initscripts mostly because of speed: it's very lightweight. [20:35] !noroot | the but [20:35] the but: We do not support having a root password set. See !root and !wfm for more information. [20:36] grawity: anyone who cannot figure out how to set a root password is exactly the sort of person who ubuntu intended to protect by not having one as default [20:36] ubottu, dnt wry, ive set up a root passwd, just have to access it, thts all, oh, and ty every1 [20:36] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [20:36] zcat[1]: Point. [20:36] can anyone help me with how to display albumart with squeezecenter ? [20:36] May I please ask a question about ubuntu sound? [20:36] I put the album art in the album folder named cover.jpg [20:36] if no help here for setting up a an ethernet PC card, suggestions on other places to get help? [20:37] can someone help me with IPtables [20:37] !ask | baskingshark [20:37] baskingshark: 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. :-) [20:37] Hello I can't understand this http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/342132/ can someone please tell me where I should put "-no-remote -ProfileManager" ? the info is in this link https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AMD64/FirefoxAndPlugins [20:37] I want to modify my IPtables as such that I can enter from the outside to my server which is on subnet 192.168.0.x with IPtables forwarded to 192.168.3.x and connect to my desktop how do I achieve this through IPtables [20:38] p.s. root beer, mmm [20:38] when I click on album cover I get location like this "http://localhost:9000/music//cover.jpg" [20:38] what does // mean ? [20:38] baskingshark: you will have to configure your router accordingly === TuxPurple_ is now known as TuxPurple [20:38] guntbert: my port for the router is open thats not the issue [20:39] Well, FWIW: I recovered about 25 Gb of disk space by (as root) deleting the contents of /home/.Trash-0/; and there you have it, and thank you all. [20:39] baskingshark: no, you must configure the router to forward packets to your host [20:39] my video card has me wanting to climb a tower with a high powered rifle, and lots of ammo. :/ === Sachse_Siechtum is now known as Siechtum_away [20:40] anyone know what // mean in the line ?

Especially a loud buzz when I launch stella, an sdl-based emulator. [20:42] Possibly from a bad configuration somehwere (or bad coding) [20:42] where can I get help on configuring a network card? [20:42] how can I make permament changes to /etc/resolv.conf? Sometimes I use a vpn and when I do I have to edit /etc/resolv.conf to add two namespaces but after reboot they are changed again and in the file it says this file is generated by resolvconf and will overwrite... but I can't figure resolvconf out [20:42] baskingshark: sorry, I'm too tired for that tonight [20:42] Hey all [20:42] Quick question [20:42] I'm helping this person over the phone and she's having issues [20:42] guntbert: only problem is that the incomming ip is 192.168.0.122 and I need to forward that to my second subnet but its not working [20:42] She can't get the liveCD to boot [20:43] ShortWave: Is her BIOS set to boot from cd before hdd? [20:43] baskingshark: if you don't get good answers here you maybe want to ask in ##networking [20:43] Graviton: yup [20:43] what's she trying to boot? [20:43] Then it kinda sounds like a faulty download/burn process [20:44] It boots and gives her the menu [20:44] guntbert: the lines I added are the one on 50 51 91 and 160 [20:44] Oh, then I misunderstood you, where does it fail, then? [20:44] So I'm downloading the same thing she did to see if I can go through the process with her. [20:44] Hi. Have something happened to medibuntu?

I got a Jaunty LiveCD btw. Any advice? [20:46] kacm88: upgrade to karmic. [20:47] ShortWave: Never seen that before, and I assume she's sure she got the desktop cd (not that it should really matter, they should all have an install/boot option) [20:47] jah [20:47] how can i get my ntfs partition to mount on startup? [20:47] PFA: put it in /etc/fstab [20:48] I've been reading lots and lots of post on the forums about people having troubles upgrading to Karmic..is it really stable? [20:48] cast: and how do i accomplish that :) [20:48] !fstab | PFA [20:48] PFA: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system.

I tried to open synaptic, update manager, and other apps that require administrative passwords. The problem is that the password dialog box won't open. [21:14] BTW, just updated to 9.10 and I didn't have this problem before. [21:14] traditionally, the MBR is located at the start of the drive [21:14] ubuntuguy: I've seen that. In one case it did open but it was hidden, I didn't find it until hours later. No clue why I couldn't raise it with the app switcher. [21:15] cast: The list shows sda2 as the boot drive, which means that must be where it's located [21:15] having it at sda2 doesn't make that much sense, as the partition table is defined in it [21:15] How did you fix it?
