| epinky | noelito: for example look auto.misc "more /etc/auto.misc" it is defined in auto.master but is another file, look contents of /etc/auto.misc | 00:00 |
| berrybarry | ACtionpasnip thanks | 00:00 |
| syrius | what you mean the compression format klappi? | 00:00 |
| syrius | I used 7zip | 00:00 |
| syrius | also used lzma | 00:01 |
| syrius | but didn't work | 00:01 |
| noelito | epinky: OK, let me check. | 00:01 |
| berrybarry | ACtionpasnip would that work outside a network? | 00:01 |
| syrius | I also did a 428 megabyte file | 00:01 |

| ActionParsnip | jacquesdupontd: 32bit can only see a little over 3Gb ram | 00:56 |
| Alex_21 | To get 4 GB to show up, or so I understand | 00:56 |
| ActionParsnip | jacquesdupontd: you can install 64bit as Alex_21says, or install a PAE enabled kernel | 00:56 |
| Alex_21 | How about that wireless network. | 00:57 |
| DasEi | justine777w: I really suggest you to back up important data and do a fresh karmic install, let the installer set the spaces | 00:57 |

| jacquesdupontd | so the fact is i'm just surprised cause i was sure i had read that linux had 4gb assuming as Windows didnt on the 32 bits version | 01:07 |
| jacquesdupontd | ActionParsnip, then i surely know that 64 bits handles it but i don't care about 64 | 01:07 |
| jacquesdupontd | ActionParsnip, and then for the kernel server i don't want a server on my computer | 01:08 |
| LinuxCommunity | but the encap really wouldn't make it any secure | 01:08 |
| === Ignatius is now known as Guest30811 | ||
| LinuxCommunity | sometimes it does but certain aspects from my experience | 01:08 |
| ActionParsnip | jacquesdupontd: true but PAE will give a 32bit system access to more ram | 01:08 |
| DasEi | justine777w: sorry, konversation is karmic default irc, server is irc.ubuntu.com, port is 6667 | 01:08 |
| jacquesdupontd | ActionParsnip, and last thing, i would be ashame to know i've managed by tricks to make my Windows Seven handle and USE all my 4 gb memory on the 32 bits version and that i didn't managed on the Linux | 01:08 |
| jacquesdupontd | ActionParsnip, it's not possible that Windows begins to have possibilities that doesn't exist in Linux or the world gonna go crazy no ? :) | 01:09 |
| ActionParsnip | jacquesdupontd: its not a "server" you are just using the kernel from the server install which has PAE enable by default, you can recompile the desktop kernel to have PAE enbled if you are feeling adventurous, you will get the same thing using the server kernel | 01:09 |
| jacquesdupontd | ActionParsnip, tell me about PAE | 01:09 |
| yoyoned | !pae | 01:10 |
| DaZ | read on wikipedia about pae [; | 01:10 |
| Tiders | Is there any way to disable CPU scaling in Ubuntu | 01:10 |
| ActionParsnip | jacquesdupontd: websearch it, its WAY too complex to discuss here. a 32Bit OS can only access 3.2Gb of RAM due to 32bit address registers. a 32bit Windows XP will access the same amount of RAM | 01:10 |
| alankila | Tiders: yes. you find the /sys file which is called "scaling_governor" and echo "performance" into it | 01:10 |
| ActionParsnip | jacquesdupontd: so its not something windows can do which linux can't. Linux was one of the first true 64bit OSes | 01:11 |
| jacquesdupontd | ActionParsnip, ok understood ! Things is first it's not a big big problem and then i don't want to reinstall at all, and neither to recompile my kernel. Aint there some new kernels that have PAE enabled by default that are not server kernels ? | 01:11 |
| tvaughn | what can be used to rip and burn dvds | 01:11 |
| ActionParsnip | jacquesdupontd: well, on desktop | 01:11 |
| ActionParsnip | tvaughn: acidrip | 01:11 |
| alankila | Tiders: I have chosen to add these two lines into /etc/rc.local: | 01:11 |
| alankila | echo "performance" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor | 01:11 |
| jacquesdupontd | ActionParsnip, i know why it can't but i've managed to do it on Windows Seven 32 bits and you can be sure it's using the entire 4 gigs for real | 01:11 |
| alankila | and same for cpu1 | 01:11 |
| ActionParsnip | jacquesdupontd: you dont have to reinstall, you can simply install the server kernel, reboot and boot to the server kernel and youwill see all your ram | 01:12 |
| Tiders | alankila, Does that mean I have to do it for each core... Cause I have 8 | 01:12 |
| ActionParsnip | jacquesdupontd: it can't its not possible, 2^32 is less than 4Gb | 01:12 |
| manish | hey...i can't access all my drives from thuran file manager in xubuntu, and i really don't wanna dwnld a new manager....any advice? | 01:13 |
| DaZ | afaik pae gives decrease in performance | 01:13 |
| crohakon | jacquesdupontd, it is impossible for a 32 bit system to use 4+ ram. Physically impossible. | 01:13 |
| jacquesdupontd | ActionParsnip, i assure you it's not a patch to make it stop bugging but a patch to make windows use it instead of using a pagefil.sys | 01:13 |
| ActionParsnip | jacquesdupontd: http://chris.pirillo.com/32-bit-windows-and-4gb-of-ram/ | 01:13 |
| DaZ | it is possible. | 01:13 |
| newpey | hi i am trying for the life of me to get chromeos to run in either virtualbox or vmware but neither seem to like the .vmdk file... any sugestions? | 01:13 |
| DasEi | manish: add them to fstab and give them user rights | 01:13 |
| jacquesdupontd | ActionParsnip, i just ca assure you it does | 01:13 |
| ActionParsnip | jacquesdupontd: you need the server kernel or 64bit OS, that or not use all yuor RAM. Your call | 01:14 |
| DaZ | it's even possible to get more than 4 gigs on xp, but requires some hacking | 01:14 |
| alankila | Tiders: you could write a script that does it for all | 01:14 |
| manish | DasEi: can u explain how...m a newb, so... | 01:14 |
| jacquesdupontd | ActionParsnip, i've tested to launch many apps to pass the bar of 3.5 gigs of memory and in the monitoring system it was shown that it was only using physicall memory and nothing about the paging | 01:14 |
| joshuajtl | can anyone tell me how i can use the synaptics module for my alps touchpad instead of the alps module? | 01:14 |
| DasEi | manish: open a trml .. | 01:14 |
| alankila | Tiders: for i in /sys/devices/system/cpu/*/cpufreq/scaling_governor; do echo "performance" > $i; done. Perhaps. | 01:14 |
| DasEi | manish: sudo apt-get install pastebinit | 01:15 |
| jacquesdupontd | ActionParsnip, trust me, i can't tell you how it works but it does even if i know also that it shouldn't be possible at al | 01:15 |
| ActionParsnip | jacquesdupontd: your address registers cannot read or write past 3.12Gb RAM | 01:15 |
| crohakon | jacquesdupontd, I don't care what windows tells you if it is 32bit it can not physically use 4 gb of ram. | 01:15 |
| alankila | Tiders: there is in all likelihood some smarter way to do this than what I just wrote, but I have not done the homework to find out what. | 01:15 |
| ActionParsnip | jacquesdupontd: then you have managed to address past the address registers in your CPU somehow, i doubt it | 01:15 |
| DasEi | manish: sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit , give url here | 01:15 |
| jacquesdupontd | ActionParsnip, then what to say, my computer is magic and my system monitor is lying to me | 01:15 |
| ActionParsnip | jacquesdupontd: it must be | 01:15 |
| Alex_21 | I fixed my issue | 01:16 |
| Alex_21 | Does anyone here use Wifiradar? | 01:16 |
| manish | DasEi: trying it now...hope it works | 01:16 |
| jacquesdupontd | ActionParsnip, if we think that after using 3 gb of memory the windows will go and take in the pagefil.sys we can easily imagine that he ghost a part of the pagefile in the real resting physical memory | 01:16 |
| FloodBot3 | !netsplit | 01:16 |
| ubottu | netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit | 01:16 |
| alankila | ActionParsnip: I'd like to note about 4G/4G split technology that also exists for linux | 01:17 |
| ActionParsnip | jacquesdupontd: your system is magical and defies common computing and maths | 01:17 |
| achew22 | jtaji: do you know of a way to restart upstart (and force it to run my new tty1.conf) without actually rebooting? | 01:17 |
| alankila | as I understand it, by adding a penalty to the kernel-userland transition it's possible to expose 4 GB to a process at once. | 01:17 |
| alankila | linux doesn't do this because the penalty is huge | 01:17 |

| DasEi | !firewall | Henry_BR | 01:26 |
| ubottu | Henry_BR: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in.

GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist | 01:26 |
| alankila | mMezquitale: conceiveably yes. But I am not familiar with how evolution stores things. You should definitely keep your pgp keys in safe place, that's the whole point of having them: keep them the same as long as possible... | 01:27 |

| jedi06 | ActionParsnip, it is in /media/cdrom | 01:28 |
| jtaji | pha: oh yeah, right click on your menus, select Edit Menus... and make sure that menu item isn't disabled | 01:28 |
| gestahlt | ActionParsnip: Yeah pretty much what i had in mind. just with compression. With LVM Snapshots i should be able to make incremental backups | 01:28 |
| jedi06 | it is weird on the command line eject works but when i try to click the button on my laptop it won't work | 01:28 |
| jtaji | Henry_BR: ufw is essentially a front-end for iptables | 01:28 |
| ActionParsnip | jedi06: thats the mount point but may work, i think you have to execute it on the block device | 01:28 |
| DasEi | manish: what do you want to achieve then ? comming to a linux channel running windows saying can't access hd's .. erm want to use win to read ext ? | 01:28 |
| alankila | mMezquitale: it solves a problem that is mostly a nonproblem, of having more secure email transmission. In theory it guarantees confidentiality and authentication, in practice these aren't worth anything to anybody. | 01:28 |
| jedi06 | ActionParsnip, it worked with i did it on the mount point | 01:29 |

| jedi06 | why do they call it block device | 01:30 |
| alankila | jedi06: I think it could be because the disk is either mounted or used. The attempt to eject fails because the operating system has told the drive that it is not to eject the disc. However, the eject unmounts first. | 01:30 |
| === Caplain_ is now known as Caplain | ||
| ActionParsnip | jedi06: its a block of data which can be read in many ways | 01:30 |
| alankila | jedi06: or it could be for some other reason. I think many cd-roms now tell OS that it's about to eject the drive and thus gets rid of the mount. Or some other dynamic is at play, because I certainly can eject the discs, mounted or not... | 01:31 |

| ian_ | is there a utility/application that will allow changing a partion table from GUID (GPT) to a MBR? | 02:24 |
| epaphus | lstarnes, Iam extremely frustrated.. when I try to install the stable 3.0 from http://www.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/thunderbird/ (linux tar.gz version) it doesnt contain an installer, and its not a src iether to do a ./configure make make install... you have to manually put it in /opt .. then do a symlink.. and then you have to run it through terminal.. no installation procedures whatsoever.. why?? | 02:24 |
| epaphus | epinky | 02:24 |
| FloodBot3 | epaphus: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 02:24 |
| lstarnes | epaphus: because that's the way mozilla does its packaging | 02:25 |
| tftech | lstarnes - I heard about another windows emulation program, but I cant remeber it | 02:25 |
| lstarnes | epaphus: and ubuntu's package guideliens prevent thunderbird 3.0 from being in ubuntu's official repos until the next release | 02:25 |
| oorah | tftech, Wine? | 02:25 |
| epaphus | lstarnes, thank you! i neded that explanation | 02:25 |
| tftech | I thought someone said another one | 02:25 |
| lstarnes | epaphus: I just use the PPA builds | 02:25 |
| lstarnes | *guidelines | 02:25 |
| tftech | I will try Wine then | 02:25 |
| epaphus | lstarnes, is there anyway i can make an icon?? this is for an end user. | 02:26 |
| eliot_ | y cant i use my back and forward buttons on my mouse in opera? | 02:26 |
| lstarnes | epaphus: it should already be in the menus | 02:26 |
| ian_ | eliot maybe you should google it | 02:26 |
| djungelkraem | wheres the syslog located? | 02:26 |
| ian_ | there is probably a preference setting | 02:26 |
| lstarnes | epaphus: depending on how you installed it. Making a desktop launcher can be done very easily too | 02:26 |
| lstarnes | djungelkraem: /var/log/syslog | 02:26 |
| Goliath | Hey how do i merge fstab and fstab.new? | 02:26 |
| switch10_ | eliot_: is it a logitech?? | 02:26 |
| eliot_ | yes | 02:27 |
| epaphus | lstarnes, i just did tar zxvfp .. thats all, and launched it once with ./thunderbird.. how could i do the deskptop launcher? | 02:27 |
| eliot_ | m500 | 02:27 |
| ian_ | is there a utility/application that will allow changing a partion table from GUID (GPT) to a MBR? | 02:27 |
| DasEi | StevenLiu: http or fttp acces | 02:27 |
| djungelkraem | lstarnes, tyvm | 02:27 |
| mezquitale | Goliath, you want to place the contents on fstab.new to your fstab file? | 02:27 |
| lstarnes | epaphus: use the full path to the thunderbird executable | 02:28 |
| Goliath | mezquitale: yes but fstab is already configured, so if i just replace them i will lose the configuration | 02:28 |
| smacnay | DasEi, I ran dist-upgrade and am still in 8.04 after a reboot. | 02:28 |
| grimtooth | my wlan disconnects from the router on heavy traffic and i need to reboot afterwards to find any wireless connection again | 02:28 |
| grimtooth | anybody knows a solution ? | 02:28 |
| switch10_ | eliot_: there is a package in synaptic that lets you use all of the buttons on your mouse. search mouse or logitech... | 02:29 |
| lstarnes | epaphus: if it is for all users, put its directory in /opt and chown all of its files to root | 02:29 |
| epaphus | lstarnes, hmm? that doesnt tell me how to do a desktop launcher instead of running it throuh terminal | 02:29 |
| epaphus | lstarnes, ahh ok.. and then? | 02:29 |
| ian_ | wlist scan | 02:29 |
| mezquitale | Goliath, you can try this "cat fstab.new >> fstab", the contents of stab.new will be concaatenated to fstab | 02:29 |
| switch10_ | I think it's command line only. | 02:29 |
| ian_ | iwscan list | 02:29 |
| lstarnes | epaphus: right-click on the desktop and put in the full path to the executable as the command | 02:29 |
| ian_ | or one of those | 02:29 |
| ian_ | will scan for all wlans that your card can pick up | 02:29 |
| mdg | ian_: sudo iwlist scan | 02:29 |
| grimtooth | i know | 02:29 |
| epaphus | lstarnes, ahhh! let me try | 02:30 |
| ian_ | perfect there you go | 02:30 |
| grimtooth | but its not showing anything once it disconnects | 02:30 |
| eliot_ | switch10_: mousetweaks? | 02:30 |
| grimtooth | some people say its a heat problem | 02:30 |
| ian_ | i doubt it, but possible | 02:30 |
| switch10_ | eliot_: that might be the name.. i remember it was command line only | 02:30 |
| grimtooth | whats the command for power level on a wlan card? | 02:30 |
| ian_ | network cards arnt usually the first thing to go when heat is an issue | 02:31 |
| grimtooth | hm | 02:31 |
| grimtooth | the bug came with the update to 9.10 | 02:31 |
| mdg | grimtooth: you mean like decibels? | 02:31 |
| mdg | grimtooth: singal strength? | 02:31 |
| ian_ | i believe thats what he wanted | 02:31 |
| DasEi | smacnay: sudo do-release-update ,and note the ssh port | 02:31 |
| grimtooth | i mean like the "power on" command | 02:31 |
| njsharkracer | i think grimtooth means by tx mw power | 02:31 |
| ian_ | is there a utility/application that will allow changing a partion table from GUID (GPT) to a MBR? | 02:32 |
| Goliath | mezquitale: copied you mean? | 02:32 |
| berrybarry | could someone walk me through in making a music server? | 02:32 |
| grimtooth | i read about this bug on so many pages | 02:32 |
| grimtooth | but no solution anywhere | 02:32 |
| epaphus | lstarnes, i did it.. but i dont see any icon anywhere created... ?? should it be in the desktop? | 02:32 |
| lstarnes | epaphus: did you create it while looking at the desktop? | 02:33 |
| mdg | grimtooth: what kind of wifi adapter you have? | 02:33 |
| ian_ | berrybarry: take a look at the mpd wiki page | 02:33 |
| ian_ | its very helpful | 02:33 |

| DasEi | Some_Person: try and see what you get,, the fsck-family has more n less ""dangerous options | 03:45 |
| deever | Answer: to compile it yourself | 03:45 |
| deever | corinth: ;) | 03:45 |
| otokoyama | corinth, i like your line of questioning :):) | 03:45 |
| DasEi | Some_Person: sure, the partition must be given, too | 03:45 |
| koshari | DasEi how come it executes the code after twice?? | 03:45 |
| Some_Person | DasEi: ok, i'll reboot and try that | 03:46 |
| corinth | Hm...I have a friend who found a repository. I found a KDE3 Karmic remix CD...but no repo. | 03:46 |
| otokoyama | KCCarnage, what error do you get? | 03:46 |
| Some_Person | DasEi: thank you in advance | 03:46 |
| Erick_23 | hello comunity | 03:46 |

| DasEi | Some_Person: live is always safer bet | 03:46 |
| DasEi | koshari: twice ? | 03:46 |
| KCCarnage | I don't get an error, I just get crazy ping times and timeouts now. | 03:46 |

| Erick_23 | I got a quick question haha after googling of course :P | 03:49 |
| KCCarnage | don't upgrade to karmic-updates | 03:50 |
| KCCarnage | just a word of advice | 03:50 |
| DasEi | koshari: no idea, from that code it wouldn't also need no sudo for echo | 03:50 |
| Giertrud | why won't gcurson go to my cursor folder? I want to install a new one | 03:50 |
| Erick_23 | I installed ubuntu9 in a HP Pavilion a1250n , wich has Realtek RTL8139 drivers.. but it does not work.. how do I configure that :s | 03:50 |
| koshari | DasEi thanks all the same | 03:51 |
| KCCarnage | I'm trying to go through and downgrade though I don't know if I'll be successful | 03:51 |
| DasEi | koshari: end it with exit 0 | 03:51 |
| klappi | sixtila, : there are php and html flaws in it | 03:51 |
| Erick_23 | :( | 03:52 |
| Some_Person | DasEi: Thank you very much. When I ran "e2fsck -p /dev/sda5", it told me to run it without -a or -p. So I ran just "e2fsck /dev/sda5", it prompted me to fix (yes or no) a bunch of things (to all of which i chose yes), then I rebooted, and it works | 03:52 |

| burzki | MAEL, what is your chipset? | 04:08 |
| comfnumb | Well, the biggest problem seems to be random reboots | 04:08 |
| MAEL | in fact, it can't detect any of my presario cards | 04:09 |
| mezquitale | comfnumb, are you using karmic 9.10? | 04:09 |
| comfnumb | mezquitale: yes | 04:09 |
| burzki | MAEL, enabled hardware drivers? | 04:09 |
| MAEL | I'm using presario v3131tu | 04:10 |
| MAEL | burzki, no hardware drivers detected | 04:10 |
| mezquitale | comfnumb, random reboots could be caused by faulty hardware, make sure your machine is not overheating, a faulty fan will make your machine reboot, also look in "/var/log/messages" to see if you find anything interesting | 04:10 |
| Hillshum | Erick_23: 9.10 has some themes, you could try gnome-colors if you want deep control | 04:10 |
| burzki | MAEL, is this a new install? | 04:10 |
| MAEL | burzki, very new | 04:11 |

| burzki | MAEL, ;-) wanna be? | 04:12 |
| Hillshum | Erick_23: Yes. I think what you want is gnome-color-picker or something | 04:12 |
| Hillshum | use the tab complete | 04:13 |

| Erick_23 | do I hav to update my dependecies? | 04:13 |
| MAEL | how? | 04:13 |
| edbian | Erick_23: If you use apt-get it will automatically solve dependencies for you. That's the point of it! :) | 04:13 |
| burzki | MAEL, Applications/accessories/terminal | 04:14 |
| edbian | Erick_23: "sudo apt-get upgrade" will update all of your software to the most up to date version in the repos. | 04:14 |
| edbian | Erick_23: "sudo apt-get install <packageName>" solves dependencies automatically for you :) | 04:14 |
| edbian | Erick_23: dependencies have nothing to do with being up to date though | 04:15 |

| Erick_23 | yes | 04:16 |
| burzki | MAEL, should indicate wireless. copy it here | 04:16 |
| comfnumb | Also, i guess while im here, one other significant prob: i cant save my desktop resolution settings to the system as default.

| terinjokes | OptimaD: GUI or non-GUI? | 04:19 |
| OptimaD | terinjokes both.. i can use vnc but i dont think its too good/fast and would lag ? | 04:19 |
| mezquitale | comfnumb, touch /forcefsck then reboot, it could take a while | 04:20 |

| mezquitale | DazedNConfused, you can fix your ext3 partition like so "fsck [partition]", in your case, fsck /dev/sda3 | 04:31 |
| burzki | MAEL, you'll want to save them to your home folder | 04:31 |
| gera21 | MEAL, yes | 04:31 |
| burzki | gera21, i dont think he even has drivers installed yet .. | 04:32 |
| gera21 | so you can get your nic running | 04:32 |

| ubottu | For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic | 04:35 |
| DazedNConfused | mezquitale I also used pastebin to post the results of fsck /dev/sda5 | 04:35 |
| burzki | MAEL, do you have a pc card or other type of wifi device/ or cable to use in the meantime? it would make the install simpler | 04:35 |
| MAEL | cable maybe, but I have to cut this connection, and my connection is slow | 04:36 |
| mezquitale | DazedNConfused, I havent seen the link | 04:36 |
| Ballsy | Hi gang. AMD64 arch, using desktop-amd64 9.10 image, and on occasion (6-7 times within an hour last night) my desktop will simply freeze, with the exception of the mouse, which I can still move, but do nothing with. Not sure where to start troubleshooting this one...nothing in /var/log/messages other than some atkbd.c messages about unrecognized keys........ | 04:36 |
| DazedNConfused | fsck.ext2: Permission denied while trying to open /dev/sda5 | 04:36 |
| DazedNConfused | You must have r/w access to the filesystem or be root | 04:36 |
| Ballsy | ...and when it freezes, I can still ssh to it from my laptop without problem..... | 04:37 |
| DazedNConfused | It won't let me be root | 04:37 |
| mezquitale | DazedNConfused, use sudo | 04:37 |
| Erick_23 | how do you find installed applications in terminal? | 04:37 |
| mezquitale | !root | 04:37 |
| ubottu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 04:37 |
| moymoy | DazedNConfused: also, make sure the volume is unmounted before your fsck | 04:37 |
| koshari | Erick_23 use apt | 04:37 |
| franklin | Goodmorning | 04:38 |
| DazedNConfused | Its checking... | 04:38 |
| Hillshum | Ballsy: Try Ctrl+Alt+F2 | 04:38 |
| Erick_23 | [koshari] I type apt in terminal? | 04:38 |
| DazedNConfused | /dev/sda5 contains a file system with errors, check forced. | 04:38 |
| DazedNConfused | Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes | 04:38 |
| numvel | Erick_23-> dpkg -L | 04:38 |
| mezquitale | DazedNConfused, you also have to be careful what you do, some of your partitions look like windows partitions, you have to tell fsck that it's a windows partition | 04:38 |
| koshari | Erick_23 check the manual, "man apt" | 04:39 |
| numvel | Erick_23-> rahter dpkg -l small ell not large ell | 04:39 |
| koshari | Erick_23 it will be apt-get something | 04:39 |
| DazedNConfused | mezquitale, not checking wondows partitions.. | 04:39 |
| jmyers | I just copy/pasted this from the ati.amd website, and it's not computing in my brain. "32-Bit packages must be installed for 64-Bit Linux drivers to install or work." Now does this mean I need to download and install the 32 bit drivers? Its not making any sense. | 04:39 |
| Erick_23 | I want to see a application I just installed | 04:40 |
| Erick_23 | :O | 04:40 |
| jack_ | all men.i use the ubuntu9.10 for developing the JAVA EE use eclipse,but there has some problem when i create a project and not effect,plase tell me how to deal with this pronlem | 04:40 |
| Goliath | is mint superior/inferior to ubuntu? | 04:40 |
| ruandao | hello | 04:40 |
| IdleOne | !ot | Goliath | 04:40 |
| ubottu | Goliath: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 04:40 |
| DasEi | !mint | Goliath | 04:40 |
| ubottu | Goliath: There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mintsupport), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), crunchbang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #remote-exploit) | 04:40 |
| edbian | Goliath: It's personal opinion (and that is a flame war waiting to happen) | 04:40 |
| koshari | Erick_23 alternatively you can check the history in synaptic | 04:41 |
| Goliath | edbian: what flame war means? | 04:41 |
| Erick_23 | [koshari] | 04:41 |
| edbian | Goliath: A fight | 04:41 |
| Erick_23 | I installed gnome-colors | 04:41 |
| Goliath | edbian: k, i liked mint but ubuntu is more bleeding edge | 04:41 |
| IdleOne | Erick_23: it is in System > Preferences | 04:42 |
| koshari | Erick_23 in term you can use dpkg -l | 04:42 |
| Erick_23 | hahahahahahhaa | 04:42 |
| DazedNConfused | mezquitale: it finished. is it safe to reboot or do I need to do something else? | 04:42 |
| Erick_23 | wow! lol u guys are so into ubuntu huh? :D | 04:42 |
| edbian | Goliath: Arch is the most bleeding edge | 04:42 |
| Erick_23 | =) | 04:42 |
| Goliath | edbian: thats what i use | 04:42 |
| Goliath | :D | 04:42 |
| ruandao | ye | 04:42 |
| Nautilus | I'm downloading a tar.gz, select all the files, and trying to unzip over an existing dir, but it doesn't happen. Option to over-write is on. What could be going on? | 04:42 |
| Goliath | edbian: wasnt gentoo the most bleeding? | 04:43 |
| mezquitale | DazedNConfused, if it's finished completely it's safe to reboot | 04:43 |
| mezquitale | !ot | Erick_23 | 04:43 |
| ubottu | Erick_23: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 04:43 |
| MAEL | sorry, when I do the "sudo b43-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware wl_apsta-3.130.20.0.o" , it says "b43-fwcutter" command not found | 04:43 |
| DazedNConfused | ok see ya on the flip side... here goes nothin | 04:43 |
| IdleOne | Goliath: can you discuss your fasvorite OS in #ubuntu-offtopic please | 04:43 |
| Goliath | yes | 04:43 |

| MAEL | help? when I do the "sudo b43-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware wl_apsta-3.130.20.0.o" , it says "b43-fwcutter" command not found | 04:45 |
| Sylvie | hi, how do I find out what is my current color depth? I'm going to /etc/X11/ but xorg.conf is nowheere to be found | 04:45 |
| burzki | MAEL, you will have to install it. it's on the install disc. you will have to enable 'CD' as a source in | 04:45 |
| Sylvie | running Ubuntu 9.10 | 04:45 |
| jack_ | ubottu....hi,can you tell me which group for talking about developing program with ubuntu | 04:45 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 04:45 |
| MAEL | how do I enable CD as a source in? | 04:46 |
| burzki | MAEL, System/admin/software sources | 04:46 |
| Erick_23 | how about the menu from ubuntu can I change it? modify it?.. like colours and make it bigger or download any application that make it look like machintosh | 04:46 |
| Monster | hi | 04:46 |
| scunizi | how do I start a java app from cli? | 04:46 |
| Billiard | MAEL: you can only use the alternate install cd afaik | 04:46 |
| EastDallas | MAEL...can you connect a hard wire internet connection on that machine? | 04:46 |
| Monster | giday | 04:47 |
| jack_ | hi,man .... ubottu | 04:47 |
| IdleOne | scunizi: java file I think it is | 04:47 |
| Sylvie | where is xorg.conf in ubuntu 9.10??? | 04:47 |
| IdleOne | jack_: ubottu is a robot | 04:47 |
| Sylvie | how do find / change my color depth? | 04:47 |
| burzki | Billiard, not true | 04:47 |
| jmyers | I'm starting to think I need to DOWNGRADE my graphics card to the flippin ATI 2600 Pro. :( | 04:48 |
| jack_ | IdleOne....who,ubottu,a robot... | 04:48 |
| koshari | Sylvie its not there by default but you can place overrides on an xorg file | 04:48 |
| scunizi | IdleOne: it is a java file.. do you know how to start it? java <filename> | 04:48 |
| Monster | I hate Vista | 04:48 |
| jmyers | Sylvie: /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 04:48 |
| MAEL | if i use the hard wire, then this one will be disconnected | 04:48 |
| Sylvie | jmyers, it's NOT there | 04:48 |
| Vonnick | LAWL | 04:48 |
| IdleOne | scunizi: yes " java filename " I think | 04:48 |
| jmyers | Sylvie: Then it's been deleted somehow. System will run without it, until you install a driver that writes another. | 04:48 |
| Sylvie | koshari, I want to find out what my color depth is.... why can't I change it with the Display option? | 04:49 |
| Sylvie | jmyers, it's a fresh clean install. It has not been deleted | 04:49 |
| MAEL | say what, I'll try using a hard wire, and then get back to this chat room from ubuntu.. i'll try and see if its succesful | 04:49 |
| EastDallas | Mael: normally, if you connect via hardwire run all updates you will be prompted to activate the wireless driver. It's a lot easier than doing it manually. | 04:49 |
| IdleOne | scunizi: #java probably can help more | 04:49 |
| Vonnick | Slyve: You've got to define color depth in xorg.conf | 04:49 |
| burzki | MAEL, it might be easier .. if you wire your other machine and do an update | 04:49 |
| scunizi | IdleOne: good idea.. thanks. | 04:49 |
| LzrdKing | this is bizarre: synaptic doesn;t like my password, but other programs that require it take it fine | 04:49 |
| burzki | leave you instruction page open .. ;-) | 04:49 |
| Sylvie | Vonnick, where the heck is it? /etc/X11/xorg.conf does not exist | 04:49 |
| Vonnick | Create it | 04:49 |
| MAEL | Are there any settings that I have to do after connecting? | 04:50 |
| jack_ | IdleOne.when you want to execute a java Program.you must cofnig the jdk but the openjdk is default in ubuntu 9.10 | 04:50 |
| Sylvie | Vonnick, where is not there? | 04:50 |
| MAEL | or is it automatic? | 04:50 |
| EastDallas | mael: IF you don't get prompted to activate the driver check System>Administration>Hardware Drivers | 04:50 |
| Vonnick | Slyvie: Ubuntu 9.10 and up do not include a xorg.conf | 04:50 |
| EastDallas | Mael: it's just like any other wireless connection after you activate the driver | 04:50 |
| Vonnick | You've got to make one if you want it | 04:50 |
| jack_ | and open the terminal,type the command :java javaFile.and run it | 04:50 |
| EastDallas | Mael: You might have to reboot. | 04:50 |
| burzki | MAEL, most of it should be automated for you at that point. when you think youre done, check the hardware drivers to enable it | 04:50 |
| Sylvie | Vonnick, why isn't there one by default with my current screen settings? | 04:51 |
| Sylvie | Vonnick, why can't I change my color depth usng the Display GUI tool? | 04:51 |
| MAEL | Ok, I'll try my best, thank you guys.. see you soon (from ubuntu hopefully | 04:51 |
| Vonnick | Because xorg auto configures it | 04:51 |
| Vonnick | You can make a xorg.conf and it will use it instead | 04:51 |
| burzki | MAEL, | 04:51 |
| Vonnick | As for the gui, I don't know :( | 04:51 |
| Sylvie | Vonnick, xorg is stupid, I have blue and yellow dots because, apparantly, I'm running 256 colors somehow | 04:51 |
| burzki | MAEL, if you do get wired over on your ubuntu machine | 04:52 |
| MAEL | yes? | 04:52 |
| burzki | MAEL, you can download xchat in the software center and get back here to IRC | 04:52 |
| Vonnick | Are you using the radeon driver? | 04:52 |
| matts | is xchat the best irc for linux? | 04:52 |
| MAEL | alrite, thanks burzki, u helped alot! | 04:53 |
| Sylvie | Vonnick, no, it's an onboard intel (or SiS) card, no hardware driver | 04:53 |
| MAEL | disconnecting | 04:53 |
| IdleOne | !irc | matts | 04:53 |
| ubottu | matts: A list of official Ubuntu IRC channels, as well as IRC clients for Ubuntu, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat - For a general list of !freenode channels, see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#channellist - See also !Guidelines | 04:53 |
| jack_ | who know the #java group | 04:53 |
| jtaji | matts: it's the most popular graphical client | 04:53 |
| jack_ | can tell me | 04:53 |
| burzki | !best | matts | 04:53 |
| ubottu | matts: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 04:53 |
| Vonnick | Slyvie: Oh, I have no experience with setting up intel stuff | 04:53 |
| Vonnick | :S | 04:53 |
| LzrdKing | why doesn't synaptic like my password but other programs do? | 04:53 |
| jack_ | a group for java | 04:53 |
| IdleOne | hmmm matts that was the wrong info. xchat is probably best you can get for GUI and irssi for terminal | 04:54 |
| Starcraftmazter | Is there some Xorg problem in 9.10? seems to lock up somewhat frequently | 04:54 |
| matts | can someone help me with my wireless | 04:54 |
| DasEi | LzrdKing: what do you get if you run a sudo synaptic ? | 04:54 |
| jack_ | IdleOne,i just add you to my friend | 04:54 |
| smacnay | matts, xchat is nice in Gnome, irssi is great inconsole, konversation is nice in kde - empathy and pidgin do simple irc - depends on what you need and what you like. | 04:54 |
| LzrdKing | well i can;t open a terminal, but sudo in a tty works fine | 04:54 |
| jack_ | i have some for doing ,see you latter | 04:54 |
| Ballsy | Anyone heard of stability issues with desktop-amd64 ver of 9.10 ? In particular, screen freezups ? | 04:55 |
| Vonnick | Slyvie: Here's the xorg intel page. Has some links to get you setup. http://www.x.org/wiki/IntelGraphicsDriver | 04:55 |
| DasEi | LzrdKing: why no terminal ? | 04:55 |
| ctmjr | Sylvie: you can create a xorg file with sudo Xorg -configure then copy the file it creates cp /root/xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf the location might be different | 04:55 |
| mobi-sheep | Ballsy: It vary for every user. I don't really experience lot of freezeup on my amd64 (three machines). | 04:55 |
| LzrdKing | DasEi, dunno, it shows "starting terminal" in the "Taskbar" and then it goes away | 04:55 |
| burzki | matts, do you know your chipset? or have you enabled the hardware drivers? | 04:56 |
| LzrdKing | i did DISPLAY=:0 sudo synaptic from tty1 and it opened right up | 04:56 |
| DasEi | LzrdKing: Alt+F2 , gnome-terminal ? | 04:56 |
| devD | while start-up ubuntu shows some usb errors 433 and splash, I could not note it down as it comes for very less time. please tell me how to see and resolve them ? | 04:56 |
| mobi-sheep | Ballsy: In that case, you should toggle on CTRL + ALT + BACKSPACE to make it easier to restart XServer in case that happened. See !dontzap | 04:56 |
| LzrdKing | DasEi, nothing happens | 04:56 |
| Sylvie | ctmjr, I'll try that | 04:57 |
| LzrdKing | and my columns in system monitor are all mixed up! | 04:57 |
| DasEi | devD: dmesg > dmes.txt , gedit dmes.txt | 04:57 |
| LzrdKing | weird | 04:57 |
| devD | DasEi, ok | 04:57 |
| LzrdKing | what can i use to burn a TS_VIDEO folder to a DVD for a compliant disc? | 04:58 |
| DasEi | LzrdKing: get a command window with alt+F2 ? | 04:58 |
| Ballsy | mobi-sheep: ctrl-alt-bckspce doesn't help, I'm afraid....the only thing I can do is move my mouse around. Even if I ssh in from another pc and 'killall -u username' and confirm all their procs are dead, the display remains on the pc....weird.... | 04:58 |
| LzrdKing | DasEi, yes, i did but gnome-terminal didn;t open | 04:59 |
| mobi-sheep | Ballsy: You have to toggle it on first before you can use it. | 04:59 |
| Snausages | how do I add vlc to main menu in karmic? | 04:59 |
| DasEi | LzrdKing: which distro ? | 04:59 |
| mobi-sheep | Snausages: It should be under Videos. Try "killall gnome-panel" and check under Applications --> Videos again. | 04:59 |
| LzrdKing | DasEi, 9.04 | 04:59 |
| edgar2 | register password | 05:00 |
| devD | is there any utility available which checks the ubuntu os and auto corrects the problems ? | 05:00 |
| Snausages | mobi-sheep: nope, not there | 05:01 |
| DasEi | LzrdKing: boot to safe mode, get inet by calling netrot, then exit again to safemode, try dpkg repair broken packages ;; did you do any changes ? | 05:01 |
| Billiard | devD: what kind of problems? | 05:01 |
| mobi-sheep | devD: There are a tool that checks if the Ubuntu ISO are intact, but as for the whole OS. The problem varies for every user. Try and ask the real questions to your issues. | 05:01 |
| LzrdKing | DasEi, i just installed dvdstyler | 05:01 |
| Snausages | mobi-sheep: I happened to install it via apt-get rather than synaptic. Should I do that over again? | 05:02 |
| devD | Billiard, mobi-sheep as I can see some errors while startup but they are not visible in dmesg. I want to correct that annoying errors. | 05:02 |
| mobi-sheep | Snausages: It should not matter. There are many ways to install packages. Command line or GUI should get same results. You could try removing and install it again. | 05:02 |
| DasEi | LzrdKing: try in safemode then | 05:03 |
| mobi-sheep | Snausages: "sudo aptitude purge vlc && sudo aptitude install vlc" | 05:03 |
| Zeppelin | question question i have a question | 05:03 |
| nick_ | shoot | 05:03 |
| mobi-sheep | Zeppelin: Ask aks you have to ask. | 05:03 |
| Snausages | mobi-sheep: ok cool I'll let that grind a bit | 05:04 |
| === nick_ is now known as Guest18778 | ||
| Zeppelin | ok well | 05:04 |
| devD | DasEi, mobi-sheep Billiard can you find anything in this dmesg output http://pastebin.com/m3be779ed | 05:04 |
| Zeppelin | you know the | 05:04 |
| Zeppelin | shutdown button | 05:05 |
| Zeppelin | i want it to be left of the power button that says 'jacob' | 05:05 |
| jmyers | HOW is it, that AMD does not provide a graphics driver for its OWN AMD64 ARCHITECTURE, but it does for the x86 64 bit architecture?! That's so asinine. | 05:05 |
| LzrdKing | DasEi, i will try :) thanks! | 05:05 |
| sprockets | Does Dual Booting hurt performance of the windows partition at all | 05:05 |
| syn-ack | jmyers: because ther spec is opensource now? | 05:05 |
| jtaji | jmyers: amd64 and x86-64 refer to the same architecture | 05:06 |
| syn-ack | yeah, um yeah I read that wrong | 05:06 |
| jmyers | jtaji: really? Because I can't get the x86_64 drivers to work for anything. | 05:06 |
| droid7 | anyone experiencing tearing with compiz with nvidia 64bit? Seems using 32bit ubuntu works fine. | 05:06 |
| joshritger | does anyone know what the volume manager for lxde is? | 05:06 |
| jtaji | jmyers: really | 05:06 |
| syn-ack | bai4nao | 05:06 |
| DasEi | devD: no, looks fine, whats your prob ? | 05:07 |
| resno-bbl | i want to add access to a directory, is chown the best command? | 05:07 |
| DasEi | resno-bbl: chown -R | 05:07 |
| DasEi | resno-bbl:system-dir ? | 05:07 |
| resno-bbl | DasEi: no, its a user folder | 05:07 |
| sprockets_ | sorry I got disconnected, does having a dual boot hurt performance | 05:08 |
| DasEi | resno-bbl: chown -R | 05:08 |
| jtaji | sprockets: not at all | 05:08 |
| DasEi | sprockets: no | 05:08 |
| sprockets_ | ahh cool | 05:08 |
| joshritger | can anyone tell me what the sound level controller is for lxde? | 05:08 |
| jmyers | sprockets_: the only thing that hurts performance in a Linux/Windows dual boot, is windows. :) | 05:08 |
| devD | DasEi, while booting it shows some errors like [usb] 433 unable .../devive... something like that . I could not note down and some splash error too. | 05:09 |
| sprockets_ | Yeah i love nix, used arch for over a year until about a month ago | 05:09 |
| sprockets_ | when i decided I wanted to play real games again | 05:09 |
| sprockets_ | but never really looked into dual booting, or how it effects performance | 05:09 |
| droid7 | nvm figured it out | 05:10 |
| DasEi | devD: sudo apt-get install pastebinit | 05:10 |
| DasEi | devD: pastebinit /var/log/syslog | 05:10 |
| DasEi | sprockets: can even multiple boot | 05:11 |
| Fezzler | EastDallas>> hey dude | 05:11 |
| EastDallas | Fezzler: What's up? | 05:12 |
| DasEi | sprockets: for playing around vm's are nice | 05:12 |
| sprockets_ | Oh, I dont want to play around | 05:12 |
| sprockets_ | I bought Win7 for 30 bucks and just didnt want to dual boot if it effects performance even slightly | 05:12 |
| Fezzler | EastDallas>> Did you say you do know how to get Jackd to work? | 05:12 |
| Fezzler | EastDallas>> Still no success | 05:13 |
| songer | Unreal Tournament | 05:13 |
| EastDallas | Fezzler: YOu had it working the other day | 05:13 |
| Erick_23 | how do I open compizconfig-settings-manager | 05:13 |
| mobi-sheep | sprockets_: 30 bucks? You got ripped off. It is not worth the money. :( --> *nix all the way. | 05:13 |
| resno-bbl | DasEi: so for instance, if i wanted read and write access, i would do "sudo chown -R 775 /home/media/music" | 05:13 |
| IdleOne | Erick_23: again in System > Preferences | 05:14 |
| mobi-sheep | Erick_23: It should be under System --> Preferences/Administration | 05:14 |
| sweetandy | Can one only create a USB ubuntu install medium from inside ubuntu? | 05:14 |
| rcscomp | What is the difference between qemu and qemu-system-x86_64? | 05:14 |
| Fezzler | EastDallas>> Some. I want to start Jack, Start Hydrogen, Start Audacity and have Audacity record Hydrogn output | 05:14 |
| sprockets_ | Yeah, I migrated to arch back when vista came out | 05:14 |
| Sagaci | rcscomp: the latter is 64-bit | 05:14 |
| EastDallas | can't get that to work? | 05:14 |
| Erick_23 | thank you, but I dont see no compiz | 05:14 |
| DasEi | resno-bbl: that would be a world permission, right, better sudo chown -R UserName home/media/music | 05:15 |
| rcscomp | Sagaci: you mean, for 64 bit guests? | 05:15 |
| Erick_23 | is it supposed to say compiz?¡ | 05:15 |

| panfist | i had a volume shared over samba, and a samba client deleted a bunch of files, is there any possible way to recover them? | 05:18 |
| DasEi | devD: do you run any usb things ? | 05:18 |
| EastDallas | If ardour is running, then so is jack. | 05:18 |
| Erick_23 | scunizy but if there is nothing there¡? | 05:18 |
| IdleOne | Erick_23: don't be afraid to explore the menus and see what's what :) | 05:18 |
| devD | Steil, how do you put these mathematical signs ? | 05:18 |
| resno-bbl | DasEi: that worked, that was a world permission. what was that you used? i want to look them up to better understand. | 05:19 |
| scunizi | Erick_23: what kind of card do you have? | 05:19 |
| panfist | how can i prevent this sort of error in the future? for example when samba users delete files, it goes into the trash instead of permenant delete | 05:19 |
| git__ | anyone here has the Optimus Keyboard? | 05:19 |
| EastDallas | Fezzler: Ardour won't run without Jack. It's the only audio server it works with | 05:19 |
| devD | DasEi, i haven't tried yet | 05:19 |
| Steil | devD: I just copy and pasted git's stuff | 05:19 |
| Fezzler | EastDallas>> HMM | 05:19 |
| Erick_23 | thanks | 05:19 |
| devD | Steil, ok | 05:19 |
| DasEi | resno-bbl: can also use a specific username instead of the commenting number | 05:19 |
| Erick_23 | it says no propietary drivers are in use on this system | 05:19 |
| EastDallas | Fezzler: Start jack Control | 05:20 |
| EastDallas | Fezzler and start Jack | 05:20 |
| DasEi | devD: so if there is no usb inseted, there can't be an error then | 05:20 |
| Fezzler | EastDallas>> Done | 05:20 |
| EastDallas | Fezzler>after jack is running open Audacity | 05:21 |
| resno-bbl | DasEi: should the number have worked tho? | 05:21 |
| scunizi | Erick_23: might be intel.. check out system>Preferences>Appearance and then click on the visual effects tab.. there you should be able to "turn up" the type of effects.. | 05:21 |
| DasEi | resno-bbl: yes | 05:21 |
| Fezzler | EastDallas>> Done. Plugged in mic | 05:22 |

| scunizi | sugi: have you tried starting nvidia-settings? | 05:36 |
| devD | rww, thanks | 05:36 |
| rww | devD: no problem, glad I could help :) | 05:36 |
| Crash1hd | losha: ok so I ran the fsck and then ran it again (the second time it didnt seem to have any issues) rebooted and ubuntu ran its own check (in the loading screen) ubuntu loaded and all seems fine except when I try tune2fs to change the label I get the same error | 05:37 |
| sugi | scunizi: i started it up, change my display to my likings, try to save to the xorg.conf. And it says "Failed to parse existing X config file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'!" Any idea? | 05:37 |
| vinpan | when installing on the part it says keyboard detection.........device /dev/sdc what dose that mean? | 05:37 |
| gigasoft | is there program to make linux portable with some programs in it? | 05:37 |
| scunizi | sugi: you have to start it with sudo nvidia-settings | 05:37 |
| gigasoft | is there program to make linux portable with some programs in it? on mu usb stick? | 05:37 |

| vinpan | whats that mean? | 05:38 |
| scunizi | sugi: of course.. xrandr is what really controls the video now.. you can control what the driver does with xrandr | 05:38 |
| Crash1hd | losha: so then I try to run sudo fsck /dev/sdc and it says that I cant as its still mounted (Im not 100% sure if it ran on that drive in single mode or not) | 05:38 |
| losha | Crash1hd: I wish I could tell you what that means. Any filesystem anomaly makes me nervous.... | 05:38 |

| vinpan | device /dev/sdc what dose that mean | 05:39 |

| rww | umm. /dev/sdc is a drive, not a keyboard | 05:40 |

| Crash1hd | losha: is there a way to check like a log? | 05:41 |

| IdleOne | vinpan: wait longer. be patient :) | 05:42 |
| losha | Crash1hd: there ougtht to be, but I don't know it. It's there somewhere because the showfsck command reads it... | 05:42 |
| vinpan | this is what it says....device /dev/sdc has a logical sector size of 2048 | 05:42 |

| Fezzler | EastDallas>> Ok | 05:44 |
| Erick_23 | I was using compizconfig-settings-manager and now I cant see the menu :o | 05:44 |

| vinpan | ok | 05:44 |

| Erick_23 | I need compizconfig-settings-manager to be reseted to its defaults how can I do that, I cant see my menu buttons =( | 05:46 |

| lotus | hi | 05:49 |
| jonzbcc | jtaji: `htop`... i'll try that righ tnow, thanks | 05:49 |
| scunizi | sugi: you might try nvidia-xconfig if that doesn't work then yep.. a couple of releases ago you would have been able to.. you can still use xorg.conf but you typically have to manually configure it.. then it will override xrandr settings.. the binary driver from nvidia will also write to xorg and then you might be able to use nvidia-settings.. | 05:49 |
| IdleOne | Erick_23: ctrl-alt-F1 will take you to a terminal prompt from there you can login and run gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel to get back to the GUI ctrl-alt-F7 | 05:50 |

| gray_wolf | jonzbcc: I already did, but it didn't do anything. | 06:03 |
| scunizi | ^paradox^: might be it doesn't like reading from the dvd and writing to it in one shot.. how bout making an ISO first then burning that? | 06:03 |
| jonzbcc | ^paradox^: did you read my message? | 06:04 |
| jonzbcc | ^paradox^: have you tried a different disk? maybe that one has been written to previuosly by accident? | 06:04 |
| fatface | when i go into sudo my environment variables arent being properly exported | 06:04 |
| kuttans | for example im using manual ip and i did it via network manager applet. when i vi the /etc/network/interfaces i dont see those settings i made there. can anyone explain me where these changes are persisted | 06:04 |
| ^paradox^ | yes but it acts the same | 06:04 |
| fatface | echo ${PERL5LIB} is working | 06:04 |
| Erick_23 | >I neeed help, I cant see my menus how do I reset back my ubuntu to its defaults at least!! :O | 06:04 |
| jonzbcc | fatface: can you specify exactly what you mean "go into sudo" - what are the exact things you type at the terminal | 06:04 |
| vegombrei | i cant get most features of compiz to work ... like them widgets thingy and also the fire thingy can someone help me with this?? | 06:05 |
| ^paradox^ | scunizi: i was able to burn this way before | 06:05 |
| fatface | but when i type perl -le 'print $ENV{PERL5LIB}' it fails | 06:05 |
| fatface | both of those in sudo | 06:05 |
| jonzbcc | gray_wolf: well, i would think there's more a proper way to ddo it (througha preferences - in the sound window or something) | 06:05 |
| quietone | Erick_23: I've had success with right click and then add panel | 06:05 |
| Sagaci | jonzbcc: to use sudo (to elevate your privileges temporarily, you just need to type sudo at the beginning of a command | 06:05 |
| scunizi | ^paradox^: I've had funky issues with hp burners in the past.. are you able to test the burner on a different machine and OS? | 06:06 |
| kuttans | vegombrei: what help you want in compiz? | 06:06 |
| Sagaci | !sudo | jonzbcc | 06:06 |
| Erick_23 | [quietone] I used Compiz.. and all menus dissapeared :O | 06:06 |
| ubottu | jonzbcc: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 06:06 |
| ^paradox^ | i was able to copy a dvd by inserting the dvd and right clicking and selecting copy disc without using brasero | 06:06 |
| kuttans | vegombrei: dont try too many things with compiz it can simply break | 06:06 |
| jonzbcc | Sagaci: yes, but if he meant he was doing "sudo -i" that means he was logging in as root.. or sudo -i blahblah, he was logging in as blah blah - meaning he would have different aliases, and a slightly different feel to his shell | 06:06 |
| jonzbcc | Sagaci: thank you, though :) | 06:06 |
| Erick_23 | [kuttans] I know I mest up rlly bad!! | 06:06 |
| fatface | but why are my variables not showing up in subprocesses? | 06:06 |
| ^paradox^ | i dont have a different machine handy | 06:06 |
| fatface | in my normal shell an echo and perl print of the variable do the same thing | 06:07 |
| jonzbcc | fatface: I definitely can't suggest anythig for you - especially being the issue is related in some way to perl (no experience there) | 06:07 |
| kuttans | Erick_23: then you may not return to a clean state. i will recommend you to back up your system and re install | 06:07 |
| Erick_23 | I need help all my menus dissapeared I need to reset compiz settings is there anyway of doing this? | 06:07 |
| Erick_23 | is there like a recovery? | 06:07 |
| fatface | its not perl i use it as an example of getting at an environment variable from a subprocess | 06:07 |
| ^paradox^ | to do by right clicking on the dvd icon on the desktop took about 15 minutes total | 06:08 |
| kuttans | Erick_23: you mean that you dont have a panel or the title bar of the programs? which one you are not getting | 06:08 |
| jonzbcc | fatface: can you give some other examples of what's different? | 06:08 |
| Erick_23 | [kuttans] neither | 06:08 |
| chatZilla | The following packages have unment dependencies: | 06:08 |
| ^paradox^ | i dont wanna spend that kind of time on every dvd i decide to copy | 06:08 |
| mobi-sheep | ^paradox^: Perhaps nautilus-actions and throw in there the commands to copy DVD? | 06:08 |
| chatZilla | ulite-deskto: Depends: blah, blah WHAT DO I DO? | 06:08 |
| vegombrei | kuttans: thanks for responding ... firstly i had a few issues installing compiz i also think i may have made a mess while reading forums i installed compiz then emerald then i kinda made a mess of things .. now i want those widgets that show cpu speed etc that looks quite cool and also some cool themes but i just cant get the themes to work as i think emerald dont work with karmic and my compiz isnt giving me many options | 06:08 |
| kuttans | ok you press alt+f2 and type metacity --replace to get all them back | 06:08 |
| Alan502_ | jonzbcc, so, do you know if its possible to foce an app to connect to the internet through an specific network interface? | 06:09 |
| chatZilla | how do i make ubuntu automatically install all unmet dependencies | 06:09 |
| kuttans | vegombrei: those are all desklets or screenlets, you can get them by installing those applications | 06:09 |
| cyberjorge | how do I edit the Grub list? where is the file to edit, I can find a "menu.lst file under /boot/ | 06:09 |
| losha | fatface: did you export them? variables have to be explicity exported in bash to show up in subprocesses.... | 06:09 |
| quietone | Erick_23: have a loot at http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-259831.html | 06:09 |
| Erick_23 | [kuttans] it says: Unable to open X displau | 06:09 |
| ga_sk8er | i need help getting my webcam installed | 06:09 |
| jonzbcc | Alan502_: sorry, no. I would think that'd be a preference per the usual "set a proxy" pref. windows a lot of apps have. but doing if via the command line is probably a lot easier if you know how. | 06:09 |
| fatface | i have in my normal shell | 06:10 |
| scunizi | !grub2 | cyberjorge | 06:10 |
| ubottu | cyberjorge: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 06:10 |
| ^paradox^ | and to think i just burned a picture cd with brasero with the internal cd burner yesterday | 06:10 |
| kuttans | cyberjorge: /boot/grub/grub.cfg if you are using grub2 | 06:10 |
| ^paradox^ | never expected this | 06:10 |
| fatface | and sudo can even see them so long as im not printing it inside the subprocess | 06:10 |
| kuttans | cyberjorge: or else /boot/grub/menu.lst | 06:10 |
| scunizi | ^paradox^: try k3b and see if it acts the same | 06:10 |
| jonzbcc | cyberjorge: are you using 9.10? I belive 9.10' uses grub2, which (i *think* uses a different config file) | 06:10 |
| Alan502_ | jonzbcc, not enough knowledge of the command line here; i'll probably google for it. What keywords do you consider as accurate? | 06:11 |
| Erick_23 | [quietone] there is no solution there :S | 06:11 |
| jonzbcc | cyberjorge: or differnet location, at least | 06:11 |
| ga_sk8er_ | i have an intel sc430 webcam & cant get ubuntu to find a driver for it | 06:11 |
| cyberjorge | kuttans: thanks the correct file is ... /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 06:11 |
| kuttans | /boot/grub/grub.cfg is the file which lists the OS and other options | 06:11 |
| vegombrei | kuttans: should i do the alt+f2 metacity --replace?? | 06:11 |
| losha | fatface: if you export from a shell, then invoke sudo, you have to re-export under sudo to get a subprocess to see the env variable, if you see what I mean... | 06:11 |
| cyberjorge | thanks people! :) | 06:11 |
| kuttans | vegombrei: the command metacity --replace replaces your window manager and it will get you back to the basic settings | 06:11 |
| jonzbcc | Alan502_: you know the more I think of it, the more I feel like it might be difficult. I'm not sure though. I think just what you're saying "force specific socket" or... idk, jus twhat you've bene asking here | 06:12 |
| ^paradox^ | scunizi: it is cd burning app and not just a frontend? | 06:12 |
| kuttans | hey anyone know about the networking applet persistance | 06:12 |
| kuttans | where the networkmanager applet store the static ip settings, its not in the /etc/network/interface file | 06:12 |
| scunizi | ^paradox^: yes.. pretty much the defacto standard.. | 06:12 |
| fatface | so how can i make an environment variable that both me and sudo can both use? | 06:12 |
| ga_sk8er_ | cheese wont find my camera & neither will ekiga | 06:12 |
| Alan502_ | jonzbcc, well... i think i'll just google it myself :D thanks pal | 06:12 |
| fatface | in sub processes | 06:12 |
| Erick_23 | so does any command reset all settings of compiz? | 06:12 |
| jonzbcc | Alan502_: I feel like that'd have to be something either allowed you via parameters programmed in... or you have to be able to reprogram the part that initiates a socket. i'm *totally* guessing all this though | 06:12 |
| scunizi | ^paradox^: sudo apt-get install k3b | 06:12 |
| jonzbcc | Alan502_: no rpoblem | 06:12 |
| kuttans | ga_sk8er: do lsusb and check wheter your cam is there or not | 06:13 |
| ^paradox^ | ok and btw im still getting used to linux. was a windows man so bare with me | 06:13 |
| losha | fatface: put the defs in a file and source them each time a shell starts. .bashrc or some such... | 06:13 |
| ga_sk8er_ | kuttans Bus 002 Device 012: ID 0733:0430 ViewQuest Technologies, Inc. Intel Pro Share Webcam | 06:13 |
| scunizi | ^paradox^: np :) .. we all start somewhere | 06:13 |
| fatface | i have it in my .bashrc | 06:13 |
| kuttans | ga_sk8er check out the file /dev/video0 | 06:14 |
| fatface | sudo doesnt run my .bashrc though, does it? | 06:14 |
| Hilikus | !tb | 06:14 |
| ubottu | You can contact the technical board via email on techical-board AT lists DOT ubuntu DOT com | 06:14 |
| losha | fatface: I don't recall if sudo runs .bashrc. You'll have to read up... | 06:14 |
| cyberjorge | I'm trying to change the mnu.lst according to this guide... http://tinyurl.com/yhk6rs5 but it's too different with the grub.lst, is it still safe to follow that guide? | 06:14 |
| ga_sk8er_ | kuttans how do i check the file out? | 06:14 |
| Hilikus | !ff3.5 | 06:14 |
| ubottu | Firefox 3.5 Final is available for Jaunty by installing the package firefox-3.5 and firefox-3.5-gnome-support | FF3.5 is referred to as Shiretoko in your UI, see http://is.gd/1reB3 for an explanation | Hardy & Intrepid: http://is.gd/1jkNY | 06:14 |
| Hilikus | !thunderbird | 06:14 |
| cyberjorge | kuttans: ? | 06:14 |
| fatface | i dont want to put my environment variables in two places | 06:14 |
| ubottu | Thunderbird is a free email client, capable of close cooperation with Firefox (both by the Mozilla Foundation). To make Thunderbird links open in Firefox, see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=60427 | 06:14 |
| j9xinca | Hey quick question. I know the basics of programming in almost every language now, but i wanna focus my efforts on one language and become a guru in it. Which one would be the best to learn for developing programs for Ubuntu | 06:14 |
| kuttans | do cat /dev/video0 | 06:14 |
| jonzbcc | fatface: if you just type "sudo" at the beginning of your command, nothing should change except the priveleges the process is started via | 06:14 |
| kuttans | yes cyberjorge | 06:14 |
| Hilikus | anyone knows how to install Thunderbird 3 in ubuntu? | 06:15 |
| cyberjorge | I see thanks!! | 06:15 |
| ^paradox^ | ok back in a minute | 06:15 |
| scunizi | cyberjorge: no.. that file gets overwritten on each boot.. look in the link ubottu provided earlier.. it shows where to edit | 06:15 |
| losha | fatface: try #bash | 06:15 |
| ga_sk8er_ | kuttans cat: /dev/video0: No such file or directory | 06:15 |
| fatface | ok | 06:15 |
| jonzbcc | fatface: I haven't been following your convo, but from you last question ... your not actually changing shells when you type sudo at the beginning of a command | 06:15 |
| j9xinca | anyone know? | 06:15 |
| ga_sk8er_ | kuttans is it a sudo command? | 06:15 |
| kuttans | ga_sk8er which ubuntu u are using? | 06:15 |
| widget | it's picked up "01:0b.0 CardBus bridge: Atheros Communications Inc. Atheros AR5001X+ Wireless Network Adapter (rev 32)' .. hoe do i go about installing it ? 9.10 only installed my etherenet | 06:16 |
| kuttans | no ga_sk8er | 06:16 |
| ga_sk8er_ | 9.10 i386 version | 06:16 |
| scunizi | kuttans: thats not tru.. /boot/grub/menu.list gets overwritten on each boot.. it's dynamically generated.. | 06:16 |
| ga_sk8er_ | kuttans 9.10 i386 version | 06:16 |
| j9xinca | Which programming language would be best to develop stuff for ubuntu? | 06:16 |
| ga_sk8er_ | kuttans desktop is in gnome (if that matters) | 06:16 |
| kuttans | no scunizi grub.cfg is not overwritten on every boot, only when you use update-grub | 06:16 |
| cyberjorge | scunizi: thanks for the warning, yes I notice that, can you give the link again? | 06:16 |
| mobi-sheep | Hilikus: Google "Launchpad, Mozilla Daily PPA" -- From there, you can add the latest stuffs from Mozilla (Thunderbird 3.0, Thunderbird 3.1, Mozilla 3.7, etc). | 06:16 |
| jonzbcc | j9xinca: actually, there's a really big ubuntu group *just* for that kind of question. I think there's even a sticky where *everyone* and their mother gave their two cents | 06:16 |
| losha | j9xinca: probably C or C++. Download the source to some of your favourite apps and see. Maybe start by bugfixing one or two of them... | 06:16 |
| fatface | in the same shell ill write perl -le 'print $ENV{PERL5LIB}' then do the same thing under sudo and it will not work | 06:16 |
| scunizi | kuttans: the link cyberjorge gave shows editing the older /boot/grub/menu.lst | 06:17 |
| kuttans | and you can edit /etc/default/grub to make it permanant whenever you use update-grub command | 06:17 |
| Hilikus | mobi-sheep: i just want stable releases though | 06:17 |
| j9xinca | losha: thank you | 06:17 |
| scunizi | !grub2 | cyberjorge | 06:17 |
| ubottu | cyberjorge: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 06:17 |
| quietone | Erick_23: Sorry. I was in a hurry | 06:17 |
| fatface | the environment variable will not be exported to it | 06:17 |
| j9xinca | jonzbcc: you know the link? | 06:17 |
| jonzbcc | fatface: what happens when you type that, after doig it with sudo? | 06:17 |
| graelb | Hello! | 06:17 |
| fatface | nothing gets output | 06:17 |
| kuttans | ga_sk8er then the system should automatically find your web cam there shouldnt be any problem | 06:17 |
| jonzbcc | mm... this is a monstrously disgusting/slow pc, give me a minute while i launch firefox | 06:17 |
| exsanet | umr6utl | 06:17 |
| Erick_23 | [quietone] no problem am here trying to understand the console of compz | 06:18 |
| graelb | Does anyone know how to update intel graphics drivers on ubuntu? | 06:18 |
| kuttans | try to googling out please, bcoz i dont remember the exact commands to debug those programs | 06:18 |
| fatface | sudo echo $PERL5LIB will give me what i expect though | 06:18 |
| ga_sk8er_ | cheese & ekiga wont show it | 06:18 |
| graelb | or even how to check what the drivers i have installed are? | 06:18 |
| mobi-sheep | Hilikus: Ubuntu's Policy is to work on security and bug fixes only. Thunderbird-3.0 will be in Lucid Repo. I'm using Thunderbird-3.1 -- You can install the 3.0 version. | 06:18 |
| ga_sk8er_ | kuttans i asked friends on messenger & they couldnt view my cam either | 06:18 |
| jonzbcc | fatface: i'm totally at a loss... again the lack of knowing perl | 06:19 |
| ^paradox^ | scunizi: looks like k3b is doing the job. will let u know afterwards | 06:19 |
| Hilikus | mobi-sheep: i see. i'll try that. thanks | 06:19 |
| kuttans | ga_sk8er i can understand that bcoz your cam is not recognised...is your cam come with special driver for linux, then you need to find it out | 06:19 |
| Zeppelin | i need help | 06:19 |
| Zeppelin | I restarted and now ubuntu messed itself up | 06:19 |
| Zeppelin | like | 06:19 |
| cyberjorge | scunizi: by the way I just want to make sure that my ubuntu karmic load the Xen kernel to support its host properly (xenserver), how can I check the kernel loaded when booting | 06:19 |
| cyberjorge | ?? | 06:19 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | my firefix is 3.5.6 pre <<<< should I download the 3.5.6 from firefox site and install? | 06:19 |
| Zeppelin | the trash icon is in the middle of the taskbar almost | 06:19 |
| kuttans | or do you have v4l installed in your machine.if not try synaptic to install v4l2 then you will get the images | 06:19 |
| Zeppelin | and the running icons for xchat, sound, and network | 06:19 |
| mobi-sheep | !enter | Zeppelin | 06:19 |
| ubottu | Zeppelin: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 06:19 |
| Zeppelin | are on the right, instead of the left.. what do i do? | 06:19 |
| ga_sk8er_ | kuttans i dont think it has a linux driver. i went to intel site & they just want u to use the .exe to install in windows | 06:20 |
| graelb | Does anyone know how to update intel graphics drivers on ubuntu? | 06:20 |
| scunizi | cyberjorge: sorry I don't know the answer to that one. | 06:20 |
| quietone | I need help with sound. Want to use 9.04 sound preferences not the 9.10 one. How do I? or Where can I get help? | 06:20 |
| scunizi | ^paradox^: gotta run.. good luck | 06:20 |
| mobi-sheep | Zeppelin: Fix it. Drag the applets around back to where it should be. | 06:20 |
| Madpilot | Zeppelin, you can move any of those applets around - rightclick and select Move, or just click with the wheel and drag | 06:20 |
| kuttans | zepplin : right click on the icond ,and click that unlock option and select move to move it anywhere you want | 06:20 |
| graelb | I'd like to upgrade my drivers to make sure they're the accelerated drivers | 06:20 |
| ^paradox^ | one more thing before ya go | 06:21 |
| arooni | how do i get the temperature of the cpu from the command line? | 06:21 |
| Zeppelin | Madpilot, what about the notification area | 06:21 |
| j9xinca | anyone have any views on UNR? i was thinking about putting it on my netbook | 06:21 |
| jonzbcc | j9xinca: still their? i found it... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=333867 | 06:21 |
| kuttans | ga_sk8er: go to synaptic and search for v4l2 and install those packages there, then you replugin your cam or else restart | 06:21 |
| losha | fatface: the vsriable in sudo echo $PERL5LIB is evaluated in the current shell. not the subshell. Do some homework: man sudo and man sudoers. There's plenty of messing about with the environment going on... | 06:21 |
| Madpilot | Zeppelin, might be easiest to remove it then add it back to the panel in the spot you want | 06:21 |
| jonzbcc | j9xinca: actually, i loved it when I tried it (almost a year ago now)... but just recently I saw some screenshots of Moblin that made me wish I had a netbook again | 06:22 |
| ga_sk8er_ | kuttans installing now | 06:22 |
| flexible | hey, after switching from GNOME to KDE, my audio doesn't work anymore... | 06:22 |
| flexible | how should i got about fixing it | 06:22 |
| ^paradox^ | what happens to that iso image when the burn is done? do i gotta delete that or will magically disappear? | 06:22 |
| kuttans | fatface: please be sure that you export env variables in the current shell. like you wont get the env of your shell after you do a sudo -i | 06:22 |
| Madpilot | Zeppelin, right-click on the panel, choose Add To Panel, and all the stuff is there - notification area, trash, everything is just an applet | 06:22 |
| kuttans | ok ga_sk8er | 06:22 |
| cyberjorge | Unlike Grub Legacy's menu.lst file, grub.cfg is NOT MEANT TO BE EDITED!!! ---- So how can I make my karmic boot to my desired kenel? Also how do I check which kernel I am booted on to? | 06:22 |
| Sagaci | cyberjorge: uname -a | 06:23 |
| pwd | cyberjorge: it's generated from other files, but that doesn't mean you can't edit it | 06:23 |
| kuttans | hey cybejorge its told that you dont edit grub.cfg bcoz its dynamicaly generated from a conf file /etc/default/grub file | 06:23 |
| bullgard | What is a "flat volume" in the sentence "Flat volumes are disabled by default on Ubuntu 9.10 " (see http://pulseaudio.org/wiki/UbuntuBugs) | 06:23 |
| jonzbcc | cyberjorge: I believe you're supposed to use a command grub-config??? or something... | 06:23 |
| ooze1 | cyberjorge: type "uname -r" | 06:23 |
| fatface | so how do i make a variable that goes into sudo -i? | 06:23 |
| kuttans | cybejorge: so if you want to make any changes you have to change the file /etc/default/grub and run update-grub command from the command line as a sudo then you are done | 06:23 |
| jonzbcc | fatface: just a sec.. | 06:23 |
| pwd | fatface: man sudoers env_reset | 06:23 |
| ^paradox^ | the one going to the tmp folder i mean | 06:24 |
| kuttans | you have to export it again after doing sudo -i fatface | 06:24 |
| indus | hi | 06:24 |
| snkcld | why does my volume become erratic when i close then open my laptop? | 06:24 |
| indus | folks | 06:24 |
| ga_sk8er_ | kuttans still got nothing in cheese. think i need to restart? | 06:24 |
| jonzbcc | fatface: if you'd really like to have a better idea what's going on, this page is awesome: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 06:24 |
| kuttans | yeah try a restart or remove and replug your cam | 06:24 |
| cyberjorge | Sagaci, ooze1 that worked now I know I really need to edit my grub.lst | 06:25 |
| ga_sk8er_ | kuttans or should i do sudo apt-get update | 06:25 |
| kuttans | no need | 06:25 |
| ga_sk8er_ | kuttans already unpluged & plugged back in | 06:25 |
| Erick_23 | I need HELP PLEASE :O RESET COMPIZ settings =( .... I already googled a lot.. went thru all help in console by typing gconftool -? | 06:25 |

| soreau | Erick_23: ccsm>Preferences <-- Reset to Defaults | 06:25 |
| graelb | Does anyone know how to update intel graphics drivers on ubuntu? | 06:25 |
| Erick_23 | [soreau] I need that in the console!! | 06:26 |
| hcook | hey guys, is there a setting someplace in gnome to make the 'places' menu items pop open on mouseover? so you can navigate the whole filesystem in a "startmenuish" fashion? | 06:26 |
| soreau | Erick_23: Why? | 06:26 |
| Erick_23 | [soreau] cause I dont see the menu!! :S | 06:26 |
| kuttans | hello Erick_23 what you want to do you want your old window manager back or only compiz, deselect all the options in compiz and do a reload | 06:26 |
| beerkid | If I want to set up a cron job in Ubuntu (Say run /www/file.php once every hour then stop after 20 hours) would it go something like this? crontab -e and then 0 * * * * /www/file.php | 06:26 |
| hcook | or maybe someone knows a panel applet that does that? | 06:26 |
| kuttans | graelb: if you are using karmic then its using the latest dont worry | 06:26 |
| Erick_23 | [kuttans] I cant open anything the only thing I see is desktop icons.. | 06:26 |
| soreau | Erick_23: Which menu? like your panel? | 06:27 |
| cyberjorge | jonzbcc: can't find command like that, though I was able to nano the grub.lst if it safe to edit | 06:27 |
| soreau | Erick_23: Does Alt+F2 work? | 06:27 |
| bullgard | losha: Ah, excellent. Thank you very much for your help. | 06:27 |
| Erick_23 | yes!! | 06:27 |
| graelb | kuttans, hrm. I'm trying to play kotor 2 on wine, but i'm getting all white textures, figured i'd try upgrading my drivers first | 06:27 |
| Erick_23 | I am at alt+f2 right now in the console | 06:27 |
| soreau | Erick_23: If you can open Alt+F2, you can start programs from there | 06:27 |
| kuttans | Erick_23: click alt+f2 | 06:27 |
| Erick_23 | [soreau] how do I reset compiz settings thru there? | 06:27 |
| jonzbcc | cyberjorge: i'm sure it won't hurt to edit it yourself. as long as you read a bit of the man page (for instance, i see someone said grub-update, or something like that?) | 06:27 |
| kuttans | Erick_23 : and type metacity --replace | 06:27 |
| soreau | Erick_23: Run ccsm, then go to Preferences and click Reset to Defaults | 06:28 |
| cyberjorge | jonzbcc: hmmm.. thanks ok will do a bit of research | 06:28 |
| ga_sk8er | kuttans still nothing in cheese | 06:28 |

| kuttans | graelb: playing vgames on wine is bit of complex bcoz the graphics wont be that pretty | 06:28 |
| ga_sk8er | kuttans maybe my camera just isnt compatible for ubuntu | 06:28 |
| Erick_23 | [soreau] how do I run ccsm | 06:28 |
| soreau | Erick_23: You are running that from tty 2, you need to get back to X and use Alt+F2 | 06:29 |
| kuttans | ga_sk8er: can you try to open cheese via command line and tell me what it says? | 06:29 |
| ^paradox^ | lmao k3b has humorous sounds lol | 06:29 |

| graelb | ga_sk8er, i've gotten it to work before... albeit on a different box, i'm just missing all my textures | 06:30 |
| jonzbcc | beerkid: this was my favorite walk through of cron: http://www.unixgeeks.org/security/newbie/unix/cron-1.html | 06:30 |
| soreau | Erick_23: Then get back to X | 06:30 |

| kuttans | ok guys, bye now gotta leave | 06:33 |
| ga_sk8er | kuttans what u mena by ur networking app? which one is it? | 06:33 |
| Erick_23 | [soreau] is cause I use IRcap let me remov that option | 06:33 |
| mobi-sheep | hylian: telnet is okay (for local access). It is not encrypted and everything can be seen easily (in plain text). | 06:33 |

| sri__ | how to check virus flow on network??? | 06:34 |
| jonzbcc | beerkid: the page I just sent explains that a slash is "steps". meaning */2 is every two days. so */1 would be the same as *. also, you seem to have been just find with starting the line with 00 -- finally, as far as a 20 hour limit... I think you should just have an if statement make that script useless after 20 hours. or... have a reminder email you if its been 20 hours. | 06:34 |
| hylian | i understand. thank you! | 06:34 |
| jonzbcc | beerkid: other than that, the 20 hour clause you've got doesn't seem like something to have cron handle. ( i could be wrong though) | 06:34 |

| guyster | Hi all, I installed alsa 1.0.21 on my Jaunty system to get support for my creative xfi card and am having a few problems. For one, when I launch stella, an sdl-based emulator, I get a loud constant buzz. Any ideas for fixing this? | 06:40 |
| soreau | Erick_23: From tty (Ctrl+Alt+F2) run 'DISPLAY=:0 ccsm' then go back to X and you should have ccsm open | 06:40 |
| soreau | Erick_23: If that does not work, try DISPLAY=:0 metacity --replace | 06:40 |
| === Fizix is now known as fizler | ||
| beerkid | Thanks jonzbcc - I think the way to do it is using something like 0 1-20 * * * which should make it run from hours 1 to 20 | 06:42 |

| cyberjorge | Fizix: I don't have X | 06:47 |
| mobi-sheep | cyberjorge: Clean Karmic Install? You should hold SHIFT until you see "GRUB" and should get GRUB kernel list. | 06:47 |
| soreau | Erick_23: Ok, try this: sudo chmod -x $(which compiz) | 06:47 |
| soreau | Erick_23: After that, restart X | 06:48 |

| funkiwan | i've been banging my head against this all day | 06:49 |
| mobi-sheep | cyberjorge: There are #grub -- but I don't know if that's a problem. If it does not work, then perhaps you commented something when you edit the forbidden grub.cfg? | 06:49 |
| zoug | funkiwan: on karmic? | 06:49 |
| Erick_23 | soreau I typed. sudo chmod -x $compiz | 06:49 |
| funkiwan | zoug: yes, off the boot cd | 06:49 |
| funkiwan | zoug: i can get it to work if i turn off encryption at the router | 06:49 |
| Erick_23 | soreau it says chmod: missing operand | 06:49 |
| funkiwan | zoug: but when i turn on encryption, i can't connect | 06:50 |
| Kamokow | Does transmission support magnet links, if so, how can i get them working on karmic? | 06:50 |
| zoug | funkiwan: install wicd from synaptic | 06:50 |
| soreau | Erick_23: You're not listening | 06:50 |
| mobi-sheep | Kamokow: New 1.80 does. It's not part of Ubuntu repo (until Lucid) or you're welcome to compile it yourself. | 06:50 |
| soreau | Erick_23: sudo chmod -x $(which compiz) | 06:50 |
| Kamokow | mobi-sheep: Ok, thanks :) | 06:51 |
| funkiwan | zoug: trying now... | 06:51 |
| cyberjorge | mobi-sheep: no i didn't I got afraid of "grub.cfg is NOT MEANT TO BE EDITED!!!" all in red though it worked now. :D | 06:51 |
| mobi-sheep | cyberjorge: Cool. You learned how to do it the way it is meant to be. :) | 06:51 |

| hanthana | is there any RHN (in redhat) kind of thing for Ubuntu support? | 06:53 |

| Erick_23 | quietone soreau said that It made compiz non-executable so it couldn't be ran at all | 07:04 |
| Madpilot | TECNOPATA, some channels won't let you in if you're not identified to nickserv | 07:04 |
| ^paradox^ | sorry ill try to quit with the chat lingo | 07:05 |
| funkiwan | zoug: i'm using the boot cd. everything's in ram. how can i do this without rebooting? | 07:05 |
| Erick_23 | quietone and to make it executable again to type sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/compiz | 07:05 |
| kinja-sheep | !xen | cyberjorge | 07:05 |
| ^paradox^ | kinja-sheep: there is no router | 07:05 |
| ubottu | cyberjorge: XEN is a virtual machine monitor for x86 that supports execution of multiple guest operating systems with unprecedented levels of performance and resource isolation. Information on installing it for Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Xen | 07:05 |
| TECNOPATA | and, how to have identity in a nickserv? | 07:05 |
| zoug | funkiwan: oh man, sorry forgot that | 07:05 |
| kinja-sheep | ^paradox^: How are you connected? | 07:05 |
| ^paradox^ | im not with her anymore and im not on a network anymore | 07:05 |
| zoug | funkiwan: try killing the network manager and start wicd | 07:06 |
| quietone | Erick_23: I don't know enough to know what process executes it. I was just wondering if you had to. It seems not, so my question is answered. Thank you very much. | 07:06 |
| funkiwan | zoug: ah, i needed wicd-client -n | 07:06 |
| funkiwan | zoug: accessing... | 07:06 |
| Madpilot | TECNOPATA, /msg NickServ help | 07:06 |
| ^paradox^ | mine is the only computer and im connected to the internet with charter communications cable internet service | 07:06 |
| soreau | quietone: Basically, chmod + or - x will set the executable flag for it. If it's not executable, it wont be able to run | 07:06 |
| agusj | can ubuntu desktop be used as server/router? | 07:06 |
| zoug | agusj: ofcourse | 07:06 |
| cyberjorge | thanks ubottu and kinja-sheep, but I'm not making ubuntu as the host, just as a guest of Xenserver 5.5 | 07:07 |
| agusj | what additional software must I add? | 07:07 |
| kinja-sheep | ^paradox^: You can change the port number and retry. Some ISP will try to prevent or reduce bandwidth. | 07:07 |
| indus | kinja-sheep: u and mobi-sheep the same? | 07:07 |
| quietone | soreau: yes, I know that. I just had it in my head that Erick_23 would have to restart compiz. | 07:07 |
| zoug | agusj: you can add what you want | 07:08 |
| Madpilot | agusj, depends on what kind of server you want to run. Apache and the basic webserver stack are all in repos, for starters. | 07:08 |
| zoug | agusj: depends | 07:08 |
| mobi-sheep | indus: Computer. | 07:08 |
| kinja-sheep | indus: Laptop, | 07:08 |
| ^paradox^ | kinja-sheep: ok but what if none of the ports 6881 thru 6889 work? | 07:08 |
| agusj | I just want to use it as router and manage proxy | 07:08 |
| kinja-sheep | ^paradox^: Try 8020? 14233? Make one up as long as it's over 6881, I believe. | 07:08 |

| arghh2d2 | init is what starts up your kernel | 07:12 |

| Madpilot | ^paradox^, finding out where transmission hides it's "use random port" option would be your best bet | 07:13 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, have you checked the account page for you isp? (some provide a default port closed polciy that require you to open all ports at their node-point) | 07:13 |
| mustu | hi i did chattr -i on a directory but it still giving permission denied error when i do chmod on it | 07:13 |

| pwd | qdb: open a console and type which master | 07:14 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, 1 also assume that you have already setup port-forwarding on your router/modem | 07:14 |

| EastDallas | qdb: are you running a mail server? | 07:16 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, so you just plug your computer into the wall and this cable goes straight to an exhange router somewhere in the suburb ? | 07:16 |
| ^paradox^ | but i cant find anything for ports now that mines the only computer. perhaps i dont know where to look | 07:16 |

| airtonix | ^paradox^, or you can try using transmission with 'randomised ports' enabled | 07:19 |

| airtonix | ^paradox^, no it's working (but you're particular scenario requires options your version doesn't provide) | 07:34 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, you could try using deluge | 07:34 |
| edbian | Stunts: you can start and stop sound server's by using "sudo /etc/init.d/<serverName> stop" | 07:35 |
| mobi-sheep | ^paradox^: You can install Transmission PPA which will enable you to obtain Transmission 1.76 (instead of whatever version you're on now). | 07:35 |

| ^paradox^ | let me read airtonix link first and ill decide what to do. just give me a couple of more minutes please thanks | 07:38 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, if you follow instructions there for hardy you be able to get latest version | 07:38 |
| EastDallas | cdocbo do you have a section that looks even close to what's in that code box? | 07:38 |
| ^paradox^ | alrighty ill look at it :-) | 07:38 |
| ^paradox^ | back in a minute or two | 07:39 |
| EO_ | How do you show the license (GPLv2, GPLv3, etc) of each package on an ubuntu system? | 07:39 |
| diffra | okay, correction, i can get sound to come out by piping to /dev/dsp, but it's garbage. | 07:39 |
| diffra | if i pipe to a file then play it, it works, so it seems like a codec/format issue? | 07:39 |

| amurabi | #WHO | 07:42 |
| wolter | four, there are a lot of guides, google it | 07:43 |
| ^paradox^ | airtonix: ok i read it, but theres a lot there. exactly what from that page am entering to terminal? and do i enter it one line at a time? | 07:43 |
| arghh2d2 | four: find the icon in /usr/share/icons or wherever it is and delete and put in your own .png file under it's name? | 07:43 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, you need to read through the first post. | 07:43 |
| mobi-sheep | ^paradox^: Close Transmissions. Open a terminal and run "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:transmissionbt/ppa && sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude upgrade" -- That is it. | 07:44 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, first thing to do is : gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/transmission.ppa.list | 07:44 |
| airtonix | mobi-sheep, doesn't work on hardy | 07:44 |
| mobi-sheep | Oh that's right. New feature in Karmic. >_> | 07:45 |
| ^paradox^ | k im not sure whos suggestion to with | 07:46 |
| ^paradox^ | to go with | 07:46 |

| four | can someone tell me how to change the icon for my gnome-main-menu applet? | 07:46 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, follow me. | 07:46 |
| cdocbo | EastDallas, thanks, I tried that post you gave me, crashed my system. And then x would segfault on reboot. So it didn't work for me. Why is this now broken in a newer version of ubuntu? | 07:46 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, let me know when you have gedit with that file open. | 07:47 |
| arghh2d2 | four: i told you one way to do it, google could tell you other ways | 07:47 |
| === ara_ is now known as ara | ||
| EastDallas | cdocbo: I guess you backed it up first. I posted for u to do that, but you were already gone. I have no idea why it doesn't work. Have you tried re-installing drivers? | 07:48 |
| four | arghh2d2, i must have missed you telling me, could you repeat please? | 07:48 |
| ^paradox^ | so enter the command gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/transmission.ppa.list? | 07:48 |
| cdocbo | EastDallas, there are no drivers for it, it's a usbhid device | 07:48 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, yes | 07:48 |
| mobi-sheep | ^paradox^: It is not complicated. What airtonix and I suggest is that you include the new PPA repo for transmission to be upgraded. | 07:48 |
| arghh2d2 | four: find the icon in /usr/share/icons or wherever it is and delete and put in your own .png file under it's name? | 07:48 |
| EO_ | Ubuntu doesn't record per-package license data, does it :( | 07:49 |
| airtonix | mobi-sheep, it's complicated until you understand the process and the effect it has. | 07:49 |
| ^paradox^ | sorry lol learning here opening terminal and fixing to enter it | 07:49 |
| quietone | four: I've changed icons using system->pref->main menu | 07:49 |
| wolter | EO_, what do you mean? | 07:49 |
| cdocbo | this may be related to the other people who are having problems with mouse clicks not working (flash, eclipse, etc.) | 07:49 |
| deever | is there a solution to this grub2 "error: biosdisk read error" error on karmic with a raid/lvm? | 07:49 |
| arghh2d2 | four: i dont know the name or location of the icon.png so you might wanna google it | 07:49 |
| EastDallas | cdocbo: I actually have this same tablet (aiptek brand) but hardly ever use it. Haven't even tried since Karmic. | 07:50 |
| cdocbo | my logitech laser g9 didn't work in flash (youtube) either. | 07:50 |
| EO_ | wolter: well with "rpm -qi cpio" I can see stuff like "License: GPLv3" | 07:50 |
| EastDallas | cdocbo: There is a driver you can make for it. | 07:50 |
| EO_ | wolter: I can't find an equivalent method in ubuntu. | 07:50 |
| cdocbo | EastDallas, well it worked without any hacking on 9.04. I was thrilled... | 07:50 |
| wolter | EO_, oh sorry I don't know about that | 07:50 |
| airtonix | EO_, the equivilant program you'll use to do that will be dpkg | 07:51 |
| ^paradox^ | ok that brought up a blank document | 07:51 |
| cyberjorge | how do I find my CDROM path and mount it for use? | 07:51 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, now paste the contents of this pastebin (http://paste.ubuntu.com/343345/) into that file and save it then exit gedit. | 07:51 |
| airtonix | EO_, http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/jaunty/en/man1/dpkg.1.html | 07:51 |
| cdocbo | I really regret upgrading to 9.10. | 07:51 |
| edbian | cyberjorge: personal message me! I can help you :) | 07:51 |

| Robbie_Crash | edbian, fix problems in channel so that everyone can benefit from your fix | 07:52 |
| chris_ | any one know how to get specific data from grep? | 07:52 |
| Robbie_Crash | chris_ what do you mean? | 07:52 |
| edbian | Robbie_Crash: I'll ask him if he's up for it. I find it annoying | 07:52 |
| ^paradox^ | with the numbers or without? | 07:52 |
| chris_ | grep returns 4 cols of data, i want the data in the 3 col | 07:52 |
| cdocbo | chriss_: can you be more specific? | 07:52 |
| edbian | Robbie_Crash: With so much jabber in the background and all. | 07:52 |
| EO_ | airtonix: yeah there's no license data | 07:52 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, after that : execute the two lines in this pastebin to add the repositories gpg key to your apt client : http://paste.ubuntu.com/343354/ | 07:53 |
| iego | *cough*awak*cough* | 07:53 |
| iego | awk* | 07:53 |
| Robbie_Crash | edbian, I get it, but there've been numerous times where people have said something akin to "That's exactly why I was here1!" | 07:53 |
| chris_ | This is my search result "0 R 1000 8519 1 84 80 0 - 22466 - ? 00:20:14" but the only data i want is the 4th set of numbers | 07:53 |
| cdocbo | chris_: grep | awk '{print $1 $2 $3}' or you could grep | cut -d ' ' -f 1-3 | 07:53 |
| chris_ | cdocbo: aha! | 07:54 |
| Robbie_Crash | cdocbo is way quicker on the awk syntax than I can even hope to be | 07:54 |
| cdocbo | chris_: ah, so use awk $4 or cut -d ' ' -f 3 | 07:54 |
| cyberjorge | edbian: please show me my cdrom :) | 07:54 |
| ^paradox^ | are the numbers before each line supposed to be pasted as well? | 07:54 |

| Aiya | Why? | 07:55 |
| cyberjorge | edbian: minimal install and only fluxbux installed | 07:55 |

| === goose is now known as goose[PC] | ||
| EastDallas | cdocbo: btw...that ubuntu doc page is, surprisingly, up to date... | 07:56 |
| ^paradox^ | ok ive pasted from the first pastebin and saved it and quit | 07:56 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, once you have the key run : sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install transmission | 07:56 |
| cdocbo | EastDallas, shame too, because "it just worked" in 9.04. I didn't edit or configure anything. | 07:56 |
| === goose[PC] is now known as goose | ||
| cyberjorge | edbian: tried dmesg but i get confused with the proper path | 07:56 |
| edbian | cyberjorge: no worries, first you need to cd to /dev and type ls to get a list of the files in there. If you have only 1 cd-drive it should show up as a file named "cdrom" or something similar | 07:56 |
| EO_ | airtonix: seriously, there's no license there either :) | 07:56 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, goto the second pastebin and run the two commands first | 07:57 |
| cyberjorge | edbian: ok | 07:57 |
| ^paradox^ | ok gotta scroll back up | 07:57 |
| edbian | cyberjorge: Think you found it? | 07:57 |
| EO_ | airtonix: if you read the man page "License" is not one of the known columns (or anything else license-sounding) | 07:57 |
| cyberjorge | edbian: yes! cdrom | 07:57 |
| ^paradox^ | do those need to be executed one at a time? | 07:58 |
| airtonix | EO_, it does have a parameter but its to show the liscene of dpkg only | 07:58 |
| tarelerulz | Sorry closed out . Really is totem that much newer then mplayer . So it would play Theora video | 07:58 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, yes | 07:58 |
| ^paradox^ | ok | 07:58 |
| cdocbo | EastDallas, don't have xserver-xorg-input-aiptek installed, maybe that is it. Odd that it works for pointer movement | 07:58 |
| Robbie_Crash | Can someone recommend a good BASH scripting tutorial? | 07:58 |
| edbian | cyberjorge: Ok cool. Now you need to make a file somewhere that is appropriate to mount he cd drive into. The customary place is inside /media. I suggest you "sudo mkdir /media/cd" or something similar. | 07:58 |
| EO_ | airtonix: yeah, which is not able to show license of the packages themselves. I just str8 up don't think ubuntu stores this info anywhere. | 07:58 |
| airtonix | EO_, the other option you have is using dpkg to find the install location of the package contents so it will most likely show the liscence file in that list | 07:58 |
| EastDallas | cdocbo:worth a try | 07:59 |
| ^paradox^ | k it took over as soon as i pasted them | 07:59 |
| Robbie_Crash | I'm familiar with programming, but haven't ever bothered learning shell scripting. I'm ish with Perl, decent with Python, and can read VBScript. Just need something that shows bash syntax and such. | 07:59 |
| mobi-sheep | Robi | 07:59 |
| EO_ | airtonix: you mean a LICENSE file as part of the package's file list? | 07:59 |
| mobi-sheep | Robbie_Crash: http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashGuide | 07:59 |
| Robbie_Crash | mobi-sheep Thanks | 07:59 |
| airtonix | EO_, yes (it's just an assumption) | 08:00 |
| cyberjorge | edbian: in the context of this, http://tinyurl.com/yanfvv3 can i just change "xvdd" to cdrom? | 08:00 |
| arghh2d2 | Robbie_Crash: google, theres tons of guides/tutorials | 08:00 |
| ^paradox^ | ok thats done | 08:00 |
| EO_ | airtonix: yeah, I guess that might work in some cases. certainly not the robust audit I was hoping to do. :( | 08:00 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, run : sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install transmission | 08:00 |
| alabd | CShadowRun: Hi , should a user be programmer to know what a close software do after running as you said it is extremely hard ? | 08:00 |
| ^paradox^ | ok | 08:00 |
| airtonix | EO_, yes seems to be an oversight. | 08:00 |
| edbian | cyberjorge: This is getting thick! :) Do you have a /mnt/xs-tools folder? That looks correct other than that detail. | 08:01 |
| cyberjorge | edbian: seems to work man! yes I have that already. Problem now is that Ubuntu is not supported. :( that's another topic | 08:02 |

| alexassa | ola,alguem aki? | 08:03 |
| ^paradox^ | its installing, but says they werent authenticated | 08:04 |
| dida | hi all, pls bear with me for a stupid question. | 08:04 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, one thing we should of taken care of before updating was to remove the old version (did you do this already) | 08:04 |
| ^paradox^ | and it looks like its done | 08:04 |
| dida | do i have to restart if i changed the timezone? | 08:04 |
| alexassa | ola | 08:04 |
| mobi-sheep | dida: No. | 08:04 |
| dida | dpkg-reconfigure tzdata | 08:04 |
| ^paradox^ | no i didnt | 08:04 |
| kinja-sheep | dida: Oh through tzdata? I don't know. | 08:04 |
| mneptok | dida: no | 08:05 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, ok : sudo apt-get remove transmission && sudo apt-get purge transmission | 08:05 |
| dida | what about mysql? | 08:05 |
| ^paradox^ | ok | 08:05 |
| denysonique | dida: GNU/Linux is an operating system designed not to be needed to restart | 08:05 |
| mneptok | dida: sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata && sudo ntpdate | 08:05 |
| client03 | nto | 08:05 |
| dida | i mean to update the automatic timestamp function (mysql) | 08:05 |
| denysonique | dida: /etc/init.d/mysql restart | 08:05 |
| dida | do i need to restart mysql? | 08:06 |
| ^paradox^ | these are also separate commands? | 08:06 |

| dida | ok, thanks everyone | 08:06 |
| vegombrei | kinja-sheep: i still cant get themes to work .... i downloaded this theme avalon compiz emerald theme that loads in an application called emerald theme manager but doesnt execute | 08:06 |
| denysonique | siera04: abiword | 08:06 |
| mneptok | dida: if you changed its configuration, ues. if you changed timezone, no. | 08:06 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, that can be run as one command (but yes it is two separate commands) | 08:06 |
| edbian | vegombrei: Are you sure you're using emerald? | 08:06 |
| ^paradox^ | so just run them as is with the &&? | 08:07 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, also I gave you the wrong key , the correct set of commands to get the key you want is : http://paste.ubuntu.com/343366/ | 08:07 |
| kinja-sheep | !emerald | vegombrei | 08:07 |
| ubottu | vegombrei: emerald is an obsolete window decorator for compiz. It's unsupported and unmaintained, making issues with it very hard to diagnose and fix. There are no known, supported alternatives. | 08:07 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, yes or you can run them separately with out the && | 08:07 |
| edbian | vegombrei: what happens if you type "emerald --replace" into a terminal ?? | 08:07 |
| vegombrei | edbian: how does one check ?? im on karmic .. could you tell me how i can run the theme thru compiz? | 08:07 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, && means run the first command and then when thats done run this one after the && | 08:07 |
| vegombrei | edbian: i donno i havent typed that yet ... hold on .. | 08:08 |
| edbian | vegombrei: "emerald --replace" Do you have the emerald them manager? | 08:08 |
| === niekie_ is now known as niekie | ||
| vegombrei | edbian: it just worked when i did the emerald --replace | 08:09 |
| vegombrei | edbian: the theme is on | 08:09 |
| tarelerulz | Any one make Theora video , vorbis audio , multi-audio and subtitles , mkv 720x480 res 1.2 gb movies ? Nothing ,but totem will play it . any help | 08:09 |
| edbian | vegombrei: Now you want it to do that everytime without having to load that terminal right?? | 08:10 |
| ^paradox^ | i did the remove and purge. can you go thru the key thing with me so i can get the right key? | 08:10 |
| siera04 | can anybody tell me the light doc2pdf convertor?? | 08:10 |
| MrSchaapman | Is there any way I can synchronize my MTP player with my music library? | 08:11 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, run each line in this pastebin separatly : http://paste.ubuntu.com/343366/ | 08:11 |
| MrSchaapman | I want something that'll let me transfer all my playlists and music. | 08:11 |
| wolter | siera04, if you don't mind, openoffice writer can do it for you | 08:11 |
| ^paradox^ | ok | 08:11 |
| vegombrei | edbian: yes | 08:11 |
| denysonique | siera04: abiword, works from the command line as well | 08:12 |
| edbian | vegombrei: Do you have ccsm installed? | 08:12 |
| siera04 | wolter: thanks, openoffice is big for me. | 08:12 |
| airtonix | vegombrei, aka compizconfig-settings-manager | 08:12 |
| ^paradox^ | ok i ran those it took over | 08:12 |
| vegombrei | edbian: i donno.. im a noob.. have much to learn.. how do i check if i have ccsm and what is that? | 08:13 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, nice, now install transmission again (it should grab it from the new source, see if you notice the server url it grabs it from ) | 08:13 |
| siera04 | denysonique: thhanks, abiword can convert MS word to PDF? | 08:13 |
| denysonique | siera04: probably | 08:13 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install transmission | 08:13 |
| ^paradox^ | ok | 08:13 |
| airtonix | vegombrei, ccsm is short for : compizconfig-settings-manager | 08:13 |
| airtonix | vegombrei, you'd know if you have it installed if that entry is in your main system preferences menu | 08:14 |
| edbian | vegombrei: You're running compiz which adds all the neat effects to your desktop. (wobbly windows and the wall and all that). You can change it's ridiculous range or settings with ccsm. It's a package in the repos. It stands for compiz config settings manager. "sudo apt-get install compiz-config-settings-manager" to install it. | 08:14 |
| MrSchaapman | Anybody? MTP syncing? | 08:14 |
| denysonique | siera04: http://opensource.weblogsinc.com/2005/06/29/use-abiword-to-convert-filetypes-on-the-command-line/ | 08:15 |
| edbian | vegombrei: Once you have it, it should show up in System -> Preferences -> Compizconfig... | 08:15 |
| ^paradox^ | that went by a little too fast to catch the url | 08:15 |
| airtonix | MrSchaapman, it's a fairly common task, perhaps there are many guides already written about it ? | 08:15 |
| siera04 | denysonique: let me see it. | 08:15 |
| siera04 | and you know xls2pdf tool, too? | 08:16 |
| jjseven | eeepc problem. ubuntu disables wifi on bios. how can fix this? | 08:16 |
| edbian | jjseven: | 08:16 |
| vegombrei | edbian: i just cecked it all out ..im running compiz with all cool effects | 08:16 |
| denysonique | siera04: no I don't | 08:16 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, not to worry, you can check that the new version is installed by running : sudo dpkg -l | grep transmission | 08:16 |
| siera04 | :) | 08:16 |
| edbian | vegombrei: Do you have the settings manager I was talking about? In System -> Preferences ?? | 08:16 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, thats an L not an I | 08:17 |
| vegombrei | edbian: yes | 08:17 |
| chris_ | i am using "if [ -n $search ] ; then" to see if $search is empty. does that look correct? | 08:17 |
| jjseven | i can dual boot on eeepc everything works.. just wifi gets disabled when i restart | 08:17 |
| jjseven | edbian: any suggestions? | 08:17 |
| edbian | vegombrei: There is a LOT in there. Mess around with it some time and learn what it all does! :) Anyway, go to the "window decoration" plugin | 08:17 |
| === twinsen is now known as twinsenx | ||
| ^paradox^ | is the right version 1.76 (9395) ? | 08:17 |
| edbian | jjseven: Does it turn the card off in the bios on shutdown? | 08:18 |
| cdocbo | EastDallas, ah, tried everything on the wiki page, no dice | 08:18 |
| mobi-sheep | ^paradox^: Correct. | 08:18 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, yes... ok your edit > preferences window in transmission should look more like my original screenshot | 08:18 |
| jjseven | edbian: yes. i think it does. everytime i have to turn the card back on on bios. extremely weird | 08:19 |
| ^paradox^ | alright let me open it | 08:19 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, assuming that you've made sure that transmission is not running prior to all these steps you;ve taken (if its still running kill it ) | 08:19 |
| edbian | jjseven: Try "sudo modprobe -r <moduleName>" the module for your card. "sudo lspci -k" to find the module name | 08:19 |
| vegombrei | edbian: okim at the window decoration plugin | 08:19 |
| jjseven | edbian: i am in windows now | 08:19 |
| ^paradox^ | i did and reopened it just now | 08:19 |
| ^paradox^ | under preferrences what tab do i want? | 08:20 |
| regex | what is the default interactive shell for ubuntu? cause when im using CLI and i run xterm, it looks very different to what the default CLI loooks like | 08:20 |
| mobi-sheep | regex: Bash? | 08:20 |
| denysonique | regex: shell or terminal emulator? | 08:20 |
| regex | or not shell but rather window manager? | 08:20 |
| edbian | vegombrei: see the line "command" ?? In that box put "emerald" I'm not sure if you're going to need "emerald" or "emerald --replace" Try each one. After you restart it should now start emerald instead of metacity. :) Good luck! | 08:20 |
| mobi-sheep | regex: Gnome-Terminal. | 08:20 |
| regex | sorry that was worded wrong | 08:20 |
| jjseven | ar9825 is the card. let me boot to linux edbian | 08:20 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, network | 08:21 |
| jjseven | thanks alot. i'll be back | 08:21 |
| ^paradox^ | and pick a random port every time it opens? | 08:21 |
| edbian | jjseven: I had a similar issue. I had to "sudo modprobe -r viaRhine" on every shut down so that my wired interface didn't dissappear after every reboot. I wrote a shutdown script. | 08:21 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, correct, time to see if that solves your isp restrictions | 08:21 |
| _Agent86_ | hi | 08:21 |
| vegombrei | edbian: in the command space its says /usr/bin/compiz-decorator ... you want me to replace that? | 08:21 |
| dandre | hello, | 08:22 |
| regex | is there an advantage of using one "terminal emulator" in comparisoon to others | 08:22 |
| edbian | vegombrei: Yeah, you want to use emerald | 08:22 |
| denysonique | regex: try them all :) | 08:22 |

| mobi-sheep | funkiwan: Recs? | 08:22 |
| ^paradox^ | actually its now saying port 6885 is open | 08:23 |
| funkiwan | mobi-sheep: recommendations? | 08:23 |
| edbian | vegombrei: Sorry: typo, the box should have nothing else in it besides "emerald" or "emerald --replace" | 08:23 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, this is a good sign...see how that goes for you | 08:23 |

| ^paradox^ | ok ive know bothered you a good bit, but could you possibly help me with a few a settings? | 08:24 |
| mobi-sheep | funkiwan: Err. To each his own. Myself, I'd find a router that is compatible for Tomato Firmware (http://www.polarcloud.com/tomato) and flash it to take full advantage. Most common routers have WPA support. | 08:24 |

| === ellie is now known as jjseven | ||
| edbian | jjseven: How's it going? | 08:26 |
| jjseven | edbian: sorry i rebooted | 08:26 |
| denysonique | plunked: you mean gnome-meta? | 08:26 |
| mobi-sheep | plunked: Metapackage? It is a virtual package that points to multiple packages. | 08:26 |
| edbian | jjseven: No worries | 08:26 |
| jjseven | what was it you recommend i do? edbian | 08:26 |
| chris_ | i created a script and i would like to run it from any location in the command line with out the ./ | 08:27 |
| chris_ | where do i place the script? | 08:27 |
| ^paradox^ | just wondering what are good settings for upload and download limits? i tested my connection and my download speed for internet is 29136kbps and my upload speed is 2093kbps | 08:27 |
| edbian | jjseven: first "sudo lspci -k" to check what module your wifi uses. Then "sudo modprobe -r <moduleName>" to remove it. After that I bet you can reboot without loosing the card. | 08:27 |
| mobi-sheep | tarelerulz: Check out Ogmrip, I believe it have the support. | 08:27 |
| mobi-sheep | chris_: Place it in ~/bin | 08:27 |
| chris_ | mobi-sheep: thanks | 08:28 |
| jjseven | ok | 08:28 |
| tarelerulz | mobi-sheep , I have movies in that format . I can't find anything beside totem that play it . The only downside is totem don't see the subtitles . That is the whole point of making an mkv | 08:28 |
| plunked | denysonique: apt-get couldnt find the package :\ | 08:28 |
| jjseven | edbian: 02:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express) (rev 01) | 08:29 |
| jjseven | Kernel driver in use: ath9k | 08:29 |
| jjseven | Kernel modules: ath9k | 08:29 |
| mobi-sheep | tarelerulz: I don't use Totem. I would suggest for you to test the video with VLC. | 08:29 |
| jjseven | module name is ath9k | 08:29 |
| edbian | jjseven: So then "sudo modprobe -r ath9k" and reboot. I bet it solves the problem :) | 08:29 |
| plunked | its on a vm without tools so i cant see all the possibilities | 08:29 |
| ^paradox^ | i had them set before after reading up on bittorrent and so forth, but after reinstalling just now i dont remember what i set my speed limits to | 08:29 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, its up to you really, but i would not saturate your outgoing speed as it will affect your incoming speeds | 08:29 |
| tarelerulz | VLC plays it ,but the sound skips a lot . Totem is the only thing that does the sound right | 08:29 |
| jjseven | edbian: will i not have wifi now? | 08:29 |
| denysonique | tarelerulz: mplayer! | 08:29 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, also : some trackers & clients will limit their outgoing speed to you based on your sharing ratio.. | 08:30 |
| jjseven | ok let me try that. thanks alot edbian | 08:30 |
| chris_ | mobi-sheep: is ~/bin hidden? | 08:30 |
| edbian | jjseven: Yeah, if you remove the module your wifi should shut down. If this works you can write a shutdown script so that the system runs the command automatically while it is shutting down. | 08:30 |
| edbian | jjseven: NP! :) | 08:30 |
| mobi-sheep | chris_: If it does not exist, create a folder. | 08:30 |
| ^paradox^ | what would you recommend based on my connection speed? honestly i have no idea what to put | 08:30 |
| Yos | chris_ have a read of this http://linuxcommand.org/wss0010.php | 08:31 |
| minusvirus | bonjour | 08:31 |
| minusvirus | hello | 08:31 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, does your ISP limit the amount you can download per month ? | 08:31 |
| jjseven | edbian: i'm assuming i should shut down wifi on linux if i am going to restart windows? | 08:31 |
| ^paradox^ | not that im aware of | 08:31 |
| tarelerulz | Mplayer don't play it , vlc the sound skips lot totem player the sound and video right ,but miss the subtitles and banshee don't see subtitles at all and picks the wrong language | 08:32 |
| Crash1hd | Does anyone know how to re add the add / remove programs under Applications? | 08:32 |
| ^paradox^ | and i download a lot | 08:32 |
| chris_ | Yos: hmm cd is telling me ~/bin is not a directory | 08:32 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, then i would put 50% outgoing and 90% incoming | 08:32 |
| mobi-sheep | tarelerulz: Try it with VLC. Edit sound settings and see if anything work correctly. | 08:32 |
| mobi-sheep | chris_: "mkdir ~/bin" | 08:32 |
| Yos | chris_ so have a read of the link that I sent you | 08:32 |
| ^paradox^ | ill have to get a calculator | 08:33 |
| chris_ | mobi-sheep: the dir is created but not scene as a dir | 08:33 |
| * kilior aaaaa | 08:33 | |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, also it helps to increase the maximum peers per torrent | 08:33 |
| edbian | jjseven: That doesn't make sense to me? If removing the module (the effect of "sudo modprobe -r ath9k") fixes the issue then you can make it run as part of the shut down procedure for linux. I'm assuming the problem isn't with windows at all. | 08:33 |
| mobi-sheep | chris_: Read Yos's link. I don't understand that statement. | 08:33 |
| chris_ | mkdir: cannot create directory `/home/chris/bin': File exists | 08:33 |
| quietone | airtonix: can you explain more please - "i would not saturate your outgoing speed as it will affect your incoming speeds" | 08:33 |

| chris_ | mobie-sheep: ok did that and i got the "/home/chris/bin: Bourne-Again shell script text executable" message | 08:35 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, 2.4meg per sec incoming you have ? then i would put a total of 2meg a sec (2,000kb/s) incoming and 100kb/s outgoing | 08:35 |
| pwnedulongtime | dandre: sounds like your cache is corrupted | 08:35 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, but thats just me if i had no restrictions... you might find better advice on this topic on the irc channgel : #transmission | 08:36 |

| === Sharker is now known as Guest92976 | ||
| ^paradox^ | ill have a look at that | 08:39 |
| airtonix | ^paradox^, you might also benefit from enabling encryption there | 08:41 |
| ^paradox^ | ok limit download speed is set to 2000kb and limit upload speed is set to 100kb | 08:41 |
| jon23d | I'm having alot of trouble getting facebook's bulk upload to work. Java is loaded, but the applet just shows a gray box | 08:41 |

| airtonix | ^paradox^, yes. | 08:41 |

| four | can someone tell me what gnome-fs-client means? | 08:48 |
| chris_ | did anyone else get a random PM from goddard? | 08:48 |
| four | in the context of icons | 08:48 |
| goddard | no sorry | 08:49 |
| airtonix | cdocbo, are you sure that is the correct place ? bashrc is only executed when you open the terminal | 08:49 |
| goddard | chris_ | 08:49 |
| chris_ | goddard:np | 08:49 |
| goddard | chris_ I'm just learning how to use my client | 08:50 |
| cdocbo | airtonix, I guess that depends on what he is doing, but for most people, they are running commands from a term... | 08:50 |
| airtonix | cdocbo, the ~/.profile is a better place since it enablesthat $PATH modification for more than just terminal | 08:50 |
| mobi-sheep | airtonix: I was checking and you're right about ~/.profile | 08:51 |
| four | can someone tell me what this means? <property name="icon_name">gnome-fs-client</property> | 08:52 |
| cdocbo | airtonix, if you'll read that file, it tells you that it isn't read if the user already has a .bash_profile or .bash_login. And on 9.10 it already has a $HOME/bin entry, so it wasn't working for him. | 08:52 |
| airtonix | four, fs is short for file-system | 08:53 |
| chris_ | goddard:cool | 08:53 |
| mobi-sheep | chris_: Still having issue with your bin? | 08:53 |

| Zeppelin | man ubuntu | 08:53 |

| mobi-sheep | Zeppelin: Honestly? We already know it is better than Windows. | 08:53 |
| Zeppelin | where could i go to rant about it's awesomeness? | 08:54 |
| goddard | windows is horrible only thing it is good for is to play games | 08:54 |
| mobi-sheep | Zeppelin: #ubuntu-offtopic | 08:54 |
| ikonia_ | Zeppelin: no-where - it does more harm than good | 08:54 |
| ^paradox^ | maximum peers per torrent is 60 and maximum peers overall is 240. im not sure if thats good or bad for me. i would follow whats on that page you linked me to, but he only told what worked for him | 08:54 |
| chris_ | mobie-sheep: yeah but at this point i think my brain is too tired to do anything about it | 08:54 |
| airtonix | four, do not change the xml file. instead you must do several things prior to supplying or changing the current icon : 1) determine the name of the icon theme you are using 2) determine if this icon theme is stored in the global storage place 3) find the icon (or supply it if it does not exist) 4) test it | 08:54 |
| mobi-sheep | chris_: Quickly, do "file ~/bin" | 08:54 |
| chris_ | mobie-sheep:/home/chris/bin: Bourne-Again shell script text executable | 08:55 |
| airtonix | four, if the icon theme is not in the global icon place then it is most likely a icon in a theme folder at ~/.icons | 08:55 |
| mobi-sheep | chris_: "cat ~/bin" -- You see your script scrolling? | 08:55 |
| four | airtonix, i only have one theme in .icons, and it is not the one im using | 08:55 |
| chris_ | mobie-sheep:ues | 08:55 |
| four | airtonix, the theme i am using is in /usr/share | 08:56 |
| mobi-sheep | chris_: "mv ~/bin ~/runScript && mkdir ~/bin && mv ~/runScript ~/bin/ ; source ~/.profile ; runScript" | 08:56 |
| four | airtonix, how do i ;test; the icon | 08:57 |
| airtonix | four, the icon that my main menu uses comes from : ~/.icons/Meliae-Dust/scalable/apps/gnome-main-menu.png | 08:58 |
| four | airtonix, are you using slab or the default gnome menu | 08:58 |

| mobi-sheep | avishek: Windows clients can read the files over Samba (regardless of HDD formats). | 10:03 |
| indus | Linux4Family: can you take a screenshot of this sound preferences window | 10:03 |
| indus | and paste | 10:03 |
| Linux4Family | ok | 10:03 |
| mobi-sheep | avishek: Samba is a protocol, just like http or IRC. It does not concern what filesystems or OSes people are using. | 10:03 |
| avishek | mobi-sheep: thank you! I appreciate your help. Sorry for my newbie question :) | 10:04 |
| mobi-sheep | avishek: Read the link. I cry at the thought of NTFS. :'( | 10:04 |
| RLa | i added user to group shadow but it can't still read /etc/shadow, is there some other protection mechanism that does not let read it? | 10:04 |
| avishek | mobi-sheep: so do I! But in my company I'm the only one using Linux -- the rest swear by Windows! | 10:05 |
| Linux4Family | where i paste it | 10:05 |

| EsatYuce | How can i contact to Launhpad's managers? | 10:06 |
| avishek | mobi-sheep: But over time, I've managed to have all servers run on Linux! | 10:06 |
| indus | Linux4Family: imagebin.org | 10:06 |
| Linux4Family | ok | 10:06 |
| Flannel | EsatYuce: #canonical-sysadmin perhaps. What for? | 10:06 |
| Flannel | RLa: Why do you want to read /etc/shadow? | 10:06 |
| EsatYuce | Flannel, i m member of one team. | 10:06 |
| RLa | Flannel, a tool uses this for authentication | 10:06 |
| indus | EsatYuce: something wrong with lauchpad? | 10:06 |
| Flannel | EsatYuce: Yeah, that's the channel you're looking for then | 10:06 |
| avishek | mobi-sheep: I'm using irssi, I tried the link externally on firefox, but it doesn't open. | 10:07 |
| mobi-sheep | Flannel: He want to read passwords in encrypted formats. ;( | 10:07 |
| EsatYuce | indus, : no, just i will want them to fast our mother language translations | 10:07 |
| isolat3dsh33p | RLa: << sudo gedit /etc/shadow » | 10:07 |
| indus | EsatYuce: ok | 10:07 |
| indus | EsatYuce: which language btw? | 10:07 |
| tech404 | How would I go about encrypting my home and swap with luks in 9.10? I want to use luks over encryptfs because it's a single user system. | 10:07 |
| mobi-sheep | avishek: It opened fine for me. Check your spelling or something. | 10:07 |
| toehio2 | How do I start apache2 on an ad hoc basis? (I don't need apache2 running all the time, but only need to start it when I need it) | 10:08 |
| indus | Linux4Family: i wait for paste | 10:08 |
| mobi-sheep | !alternative | tech404 | 10:08 |
| ubottu | tech404: The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the link on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal | 10:08 |
| RLa | isolat3dsh33p, it's used by some tool for authentication, i do not want to read it myself | 10:08 |
| RLa | isolat3dsh33p, or edit it | 10:08 |
| mobi-sheep | tech404: Alternative Disc contains supports for LVM2 + Cryptsetup (encryption). | 10:08 |
| Flannel | toehio2: What version of Ubuntu? | 10:08 |
| avishek | mobi-sheep: tried twice. But you have answered my question already. Many thanks! | 10:08 |
| toehio2 | @Flannel: 9.04 | 10:09 |
| isolat3dsh33p | RLa: What are you trying to do again? | 10:09 |
| RLa | the user has group 'shadow', /etc/shadow is readable by group 'shadow', still, for the user it fails, can't read it | 10:09 |
| Linux4Family | you can see it here http://imagebin.org/75833 | 10:09 |
| Flannel | toehio2: sudo service apache2 start | 10:09 |
| indus | Linux4Family: ok strange no devices yet you hear sound | 10:09 |
| Linux4Family | ok | 10:10 |
| indus | !sound | 10:10 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 10:10 |
| toehio2 | @Flannel: nevertheless, I believe that the service will always start up at bootup | 10:10 |
| Flannel | toehio2: correct, but you can change that too | 10:10 |
| Linux4Family | how i can slove it | 10:10 |
| Flannel | !bum | toehio2 | 10:10 |
| ubottu | toehio2: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto | 10:10 |
| toehio2 | @Flannel: Thanks, I will look into it. | 10:10 |
| avishek | Here's another newbie question: If I want to set my /home to an external USB HDD, do I need to specify this in /etc/fstab? | 10:10 |
| isolat3dsh33p | Linux4Family: Interesting phenomenon D: | 10:10 |
| indus | Linux4Family: type sudo aplay -l in terminal | 10:11 |
| rww | avishek: yes | 10:11 |
| indus | brb | 10:11 |
| avishek | rww: thank you! Can I still keep a /home directory on my internal HDD, or do I need to rm it? | 10:11 |
| llutz | avishek: you can keep it, it will be invisible it usb is mounted | 10:12 |
| llutz | if | 10:12 |
| Linux4Family | i did it | 10:12 |
| rww | avishek: if you have a /home directory on your / partition, it will be hidden and inaccessible when the external /home is mounted, but will reappear if the external is unmounted. | 10:12 |
| Linux4Family | i do it | 10:12 |
| tech404 | mobi-sheep, So I used the mini to install.... Are you saying that I can encrypt while partitioning instead of saying ok to the "would you like to encrypt your home directory" question. If I do it that way will pam_mount or similar be configured or will I end up getting asked to provide a password before I authenticate? | 10:13 |
| tech404 | mobi-sheep, also thankyou | 10:13 |
| stanley_robertso | Hi all, anyone used Virtualmachine to run Ubuntu ? | 10:13 |
| avishek | So I think it's possible to login w/o the external being mounted at boot time? | 10:13 |
| Linux4Family | you can see in here http://paste.ubuntu.com/343454/ | 10:14 |
| nnull | anyone recommend a program for bluetooth connectivity to current mobile phones? | 10:14 |
| kinja-sheep | tech404: I don't know if minimal install ISO contains files for cryptsetup+lvm2 and I'd imagine they does. When you boot up, you'll be prompted to type passphrase (a lengthy one, I hope) before anything goes. The only partition that will not be encrypted is /boot . | 10:14 |
| llutz | avishek: your internal-hdd /home won't be updated, so don't expect to have same settings like using usb-home | 10:15 |
| stanley_robertso | can somebody help me please | 10:15 |
| indus | Linux4Family: looks good | 10:15 |
| llutz | !anyone | stanley_robertso | 10:15 |
| ubottu | stanley_robertso: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 10:15 |
| indus | Linux4Family: is your system uptodate? | 10:15 |
| tech404 | kinja-sheep, yeah.... see I was trying to avoid that. trying to keep things speedy. | 10:15 |
| Linux4Family | yes | 10:15 |
| Linux4Family | is updated system | 10:15 |
| stanley_robertso | Does anyone used Virtualmachine to run Ubuntu ? | 10:16 |
| avishek | llutz: no, my idea is that there is only 1 admin a/c on internal that logs in and manually mounts the external for the others | 10:16 |
| Linux4Family | how i can slove it | 10:16 |
| RLa | isolat3dsh33p, that simply required system reboot | 10:16 |
| tech404 | kinja-sheep, thank you though. | 10:16 |
| mobi-sheep | tech404: Meh? You do know the most slow and instability part of the computer hardware is the hard drive? :o | 10:16 |
| RLa | i thought that group changes etc. do not require system reboot | 10:16 |
| tech404 | mobi-sheep, yes. esp on a 54k laptop drive. thats why don't want it doing any extra work. | 10:18 |
| tech404 | 5.4k that is | 10:18 |
| tech404 | 54k.... i wish | 10:19 |
| avishek | Thank you all for your help! See you again sometime. | 10:19 |
| llutz | tech404: 54k would sound like being at the dentist, nobody wants that :) | 10:19 |

| llutz | trayzz: it's .profile | 10:22 |
| trayzz | llutz yup typo | 10:23 |

| sirMajid | hi everybody, I can't connect to yahoo or google by pidigin, does anyone know what the problem is? | 10:24 |

| ubottu | sirMajid This info from ubottu may help you with the Yahoo problem, I'm not sure about the google problem though, I've not experienced any difficulties with google chat: At the moment there are many pidgin users experiencing problems connecting to Yahoo IM, you can try changing your paging server to cn.scs.msg.yahoo.com (port 5050) and see if that helps. | 10:28 |

| what | how about actually looking at the lspci and tell me if that specific one is. | 10:51 |
| ActionParsnip | what: no hardware necessarily should work | 10:52 |

| ubottu | MaSSaSLaYeR: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 11:01 |

| caulagi | hi - i am not getting sound. I have already read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems and a few links | 11:07 |
| what | just started reading i've no idea where i'm gonna end up with that | 11:07 |
| caulagi | where should I look? | 11:07 |
| what | caulagi, first, please describe all hardware, then in terminal do lspci -vvv and pastebin it | 11:07 |
| what | !pastebin | 11:07 |
| ubottu | For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic | 11:07 |
| ActionParsnip | what: if you read the HCL you can buy sound cards which work out of the box and avoid a lot of heartache | 11:07 |
| ActionParsnip | what: you can use: sudo apt-get install pastebinit; lspci -vvv | pastebinit to generate a url, no need to manually visit websites | 11:08 |
| what | i've no intentions of changing my purchasing pattern to meet a specific os's pattern | 11:08 |
| MaSSaSLaYeR | ActionParsnip: the bug is that the screen is widdenth | 11:08 |
| what | and what are its default settings? | 11:08 |
| ActionParsnip | what: if you pipe the output to xclip you don't even have to manually copy the url it makes ;) | 11:08 |
| MaSSaSLaYeR | ActionParsnip: so the lower panel is not shown | 11:08 |
| papul | how do i install the gmail notifier? | 11:08 |

| grendal_prime | i need a simple email server so i can demonstrate sometihng being sent from box 192.168.1.10 to box 192.168.1.254 | 11:10 |
| what | sounds interesting ActionParsnip | 11:10 |
| what | 11:10 | |
| grendal_prime | i have postfix on the 254 box. I cant seem to get exip to send to it though | 11:10 |
| ActionParsnip | grendal_prime: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MailServer | 11:10 |
| what | lol | 11:10 |
| papul | why cant i login as root? | 11:10 |
| ActionParsnip | !noroot | papul | 11:10 |
| ubottu | papul: We do not support having a root password set. See !root and !wfm for more information. | 11:10 |
| caulagi | what: http://paste.ubuntu.com/343477/ | 11:10 |
| ActionParsnip | !root | papul | 11:10 |
| papul | i didnt even had to specify a root password during installation | 11:10 |
| ubottu | papul: 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 | 11:10 |
| crazydip | whats the name of the panel app with your username, user switch, shutdown, away, etc.? its on the top right hand side by default in gnome | 11:11 |
| papul | but why?? | 11:11 |
| what | Zwierzak_, were you able to see the playlist for the vlc there sir? | 11:11 |
| Flannel | papul: The root account is locked, you can use sudo to do things with elevated privledges | 11:11 |
| ActionParsnip | papul: root is disabled for security, use sudo and gksudo if you need admin powers | 11:11 |
| what | papul, its not as secure | 11:11 |
| Flannel | papul: Because there's no real good reason for the root account to be enabled | 11:11 |
| ActionParsnip | this old chestnut eh Flannel | 11:11 |
| what | if you do 'sudo -i' then you can be root, or set a root password with 'sudo passwd' | 11:12 |
| papul | ohh.... then i have gotta inform other distro users not to use root ;) | 11:12 |
| what | if you do 'sudo -i' then you can be root, or set a root password with 'sudo passwd' @ papul | 11:12 |
| === c0p3rn1c is now known as copernic | ||
| Flannel | what: Please don't suggest that here, thanks. | 11:12 |
| what | papul, you add people to sudo list instead - 'visudo -f / | 11:12 |
| crazydip | nm, found it! indicator-applet-session :D | 11:12 |
| === VanDyke_ is now known as VanDyke | ||
| ActionParsnip | what: do't advise users of that, keep to sudo -i or sudo -s | 11:12 |
| what | papul, you add people to sudo list instead - 'visudo -f /etc/sudoers' | 11:12 |
| papul | what, i prefer nano to vi | 11:12 |
| what | ActionParsnip, actually sudo -i is the recommended way. | 11:12 |
| papul | ok | 11:13 |
| ActionParsnip | what: if you read the !root fctoid link it says sudo -s is advised | 11:13 |
| what | it fully initiates the bash shell for the root user, rather than tying to any user account | 11:13 |
| grendal_prime | papul: or sudo -s | 11:13 |
| what | and secondly Flannel, linux is about choice correct? | 11:13 |
| what | please try to wait a minute before jumping down my throat as i was bothering to explain how multiple users can also have root privledges IF NEEDED | 11:13 |
| papul | grendal_prime, for what? | 11:13 |
| papul | grendal_prime, what the -s for?? | 11:14 |
| grendal_prime | that will persistantly make you the root user.. | 11:14 |
| what | and also please do not assume that we know better than the potential user as to what he should or not do with his box - its his box, his choice, and i totally agree dont set root pw | 11:14 |
| Flannel | what: Enabling the root account is not supported in this channel. Please do not recommend it unless you intend to be here 24 hours a day to support those with enabled root accounts. | 11:14 |
| grendal_prime | you wont have to type sudo in front of everything | 11:14 |
| grendal_prime | its the same as su to root in debian system | 11:14 |
| ActionParsnip | what: actually, i read the doc and its neither: http://pastebin.com/m4a5b1139 | 11:14 |
| what | Flannel, and you expect no one to accidentally set passwd when performing several commands with sudo in a row? i've done it lol | 11:14 |
| papul | and how do i make my computer accesable to all like in public shells? | 11:14 |
| what | Flannel, how about a factoid for the bot on how to fix a system with a root password? | 11:15 |
| Flannel | what: It's on the rootsudo wiki page. | 11:15 |
| what | but please never take the choice away from the user. | 11:15 |
| ActionParsnip | papul: do you mean access your ssh service from outside your lan? | 11:15 |
| grendal_prime | you mean...like you need ...what? public shells? | 11:15 |
| papul | ActionParsnip, yeah that sort of thing | 11:15 |
| Flannel | what: If you have a problem with our policy, please direct your concerns to the Ubuntu Technical Board. | 11:15 |
| * airtonix adds +1 to the daily conversation cound about root/sudo | 11:15 | |
| what | papul, maybe if you could describe what you see in your mind we could help a little better? | 11:16 |
| ActionParsnip | papul: yuo will need to setup port forwarding or virtualserver in your router | 11:16 |
| grendal_prime | im going to bed | 11:16 |
| MaSSaSLaYeR | How come i don't have an xorg.conf file? | 11:16 |
| papul | ActionParsnip, that will be done | 11:16 |
| grendal_prime | night girls... | 11:16 |
| papul | ActionParsnip, what should i install in the computer??? | 11:16 |
| what | are you forwarding traffic? are you letting people log into the computer? do you have a set user list? are they just sharing files? | 11:16 |
| ActionParsnip | papul: services use port numbers, you can forward the port on the router to the internal PC and the connection will be mde | 11:16 |
| === ari_stress is now known as chinese_ghost_st | ||
| papul | ActionParsnip, nothing else to do? | 11:17 |
| what | papul, it is a very good idea to change the port that sshd runs on | 11:17 |
| === chinese_ghost_st is now known as chn_ghost_story | ||
| ActionParsnip | what: doesnt matter the service, the port forwarding is still the same | 11:17 |
| * what sighs | 11:17 | |
| what | obviously | 11:17 |
| papul | ok got it :) thanks | 11:17 |
| what | papul its still highly recommended to change the port | 11:17 |
| ActionParsnip | papul: no, then you connect to the port on the wan IP of your router and the traffic will be forwarded to te system | 11:17 |
| KismetGFX | will ubuntu run on a mac ppc? | 11:18 |
| ActionParsnip | KismetGFX: sure, if you get the ppc ISO | 11:18 |
| KismetGFX | sw33t | 11:18 |
| ActionParsnip | KismetGFX: last i tried the karmic one didnt work for me | 11:19 |
| ActionParsnip | KismetGFX: was doing a data recovery for a mac user and ended up having to use hardy | 11:19 |
| zottel | hey, i'm trying to create a install-iso for my gecko edubook, and keep stucking at this errormessage: "ext3-fs: no journal found" | 11:19 |
| KismetGFX | yeah hardy is what im seeing as far as google searches but thats a whole version behind which scares me if they arent gonna bother continuing ppc | 11:19 |
| ActionParsnip | KismetGFX: you can upgrade to the next release up pusing the web | 11:20 |

| caulagi | what: thanks | 11:21 |
| what | caulagi, thank Flannel | 11:22 |
| Flannel | KismetGFX: PPC is supported/maintained by the community after Hardy, including the most recent release. It is true that there's no 'official' support from canonical after Hardy though. | 11:22 |
| * what sighs | 11:22 | |
| what | what a fucked up distro | 11:22 |
| KismetGFX | Flannel : i c, thx :O | 11:22 |

| verb3k | is it possible to schedule messages in xchat? | 11:32 |
| arand | ActionParsnip: Similar have been tried, tried yours, no change. | 11:32 |
| papul | verb3k, ask in #xchat | 11:32 |
| verb3k | papul, I did but no answer | 11:33 |
| Homely_Girl | Right, will give it a go, and will be back if it doesn't work!! :) Thanks MASARUwota | 11:33 |
| papul | verb3k, have patience | 11:33 |
| zottel | verb3k, that depends on what you mean with shedulling, /TIMER for example can be used effectively to send messages after booting, | 11:33 |
| verb3k | zottel, I mean like "After xx time send this message" | 11:34 |
| zottel | verb3k, /help timer | 11:34 |
| verb3k | zottel, thank you | 11:35 |

| ActionParsnip | bonez2046: thats why you are in this mess, flashplugin-nonfree is all you need to get flash | 12:26 |
| Dr_Willis | softy: you can easially install different services on a ubuntu machine. it deopends on exactly what it is you are wanting to do | 12:27 |

| bonez2046 | ActionParsnip: does is matter whether one runs apt-get or aptitude? | 12:29 |
| Dr_Willis | softy: you really need to do some basic reasearch and reading of linux fundamentals. You could set up ssh on that box and do all sorts of things with it. If you wanted to. | 12:29 |
| boscop | how can I grep for lines that contain multiple words? | 12:29 |
| katsu | \server irc.rizon.net | 12:29 |

| Dr_Willis | plunked: depending on what it is and what else it may of installed.. ive moved such things around to diofferent machines befor. | 12:30 |
| ActionParsnip | bonez2046: provided you have only that package installed for flash, yuo will get flash | 12:30 |

| jrib | Alex_2_3: you can do it with sed but isn't grep made for that? | 13:08 |
| Dr_Willis | Alex_2_3: i think you may want to use awk fior that. sed is a 'Stream EDitor' but my sedfu is rather lacking. | 13:09 |

| Vinceman | (with the mount command) | 13:24 |
| Vinceman | Dr_Willis^ | 13:25 |

| cyber_666_uk | what about another windows machine? | 13:57 |
| jasman | !root | 13:57 |
| ubottu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 13:57 |
| dsl_ | so i need to set it to auto-reconnect at log in | 13:57 |
| Dr_Willis | dsl_: yes.. when you got the thing accessed first time when you login.. it shows the icon.. you logout it unmounts. it dosent rember | 13:57 |

| Poundo | Pici:"52 04 * * * /path/to/my/file" | 14:07 |
| Pici | Poundo: Then yes, it should work. | 14:08 |
| Dr_Willis | cyber_666_uk: use winows to check/fix the drive.. ALWAYS use windows 'safely remove' feature.. dont hibernate/suspend windows with the thing plugged in | 14:08 |
| Poundo | Pici: hmmm its not but the wild card versions do. It's like something is wrong with the hour desiginator | 14:08 |

| CShadowRun | mezquitale: why? that makes it a whole lot more complicated | 15:40 |
| CShadowRun | If you install windows first, then install ubuntu, ubuntu handles everything, sets up grub boot menu for you, job done | 15:40 |
| Raven737 | mezquitale: well windows is setup and works, i want ubuntu as well but without changing the hdd layout.. | 15:40 |
| Machtin | heyho. | 15:40 |
| Machtin | how can i check whether i'm connected via gbit or 100mbit lan? | 15:41 |
| CShadowRun | Raven737: ubuntu will create it's own partition and resize your windows one | 15:41 |
| Raven737 | airtonix: ok, thanks for the help, and by space you mean normal unused space, not unpartitioned space, right? | 15:41 |
| airtonix | spacebison, that guide uses an older version of ubuntu...so the stesp woon;t be the same in Raven737 is using 9.10 | 15:41 |
| Raven737 | CShadowRun: oh i see, great, thanks for the info! :) | 15:42 |
| airtonix | Raven737, both. ubuntu guided partitioning stage of the installer will be able to make use of either | 15:42 |
| CShadowRun | Raven737: np :) | 15:42 |
| mezquitale | Raven737, you can install wubi inside windows, otherwise you will have to repartition your drive using gparted, if you want to know how to partition the drive just ask | 15:42 |
| airtonix | Raven737, make sure you have shut windows down properly before attempting this | 15:42 |
| spacebison | Right, it's still pretty much the same though, you just have to be careful not to wipe the whole drive | 15:42 |
| mezquitale | CShadowRun, it's not complicated using a GUI and gparted, for beginners I would rather partition the drive first since that process alone takes a long time | 15:43 |
| CShadowRun | mezquitale: but the installer would take the exact same amount of time :S | 15:43 |

| ironfroggy_ | what would cause a usb storage device to disconnect on one machine, but not another? | 15:44 |
| mezquitale | CShadowRun, caveat emptor! if you want the utility to do it for you, that's fine, if you want to actually see what's going on and you want to be in control then use gparted then install ubuntu | 15:44 |
| airtonix | spacebison, Raven737 this guide is more relevant : http://news.softpedia.com/news/Installing-Ubuntu-9-10-126370.shtml | 15:45 |
| Raven737 | mezquitale: uh wubi is cool, i didn't even knew something like that was possible, i think i'll start with that and see how it goes. Thank you! | 15:45 |
| CShadowRun | mezquitale: exactly, see what's going on and want to be in control, that's not for beginners | 15:45 |

| Guest70080 | i need some help formatting and partitioning a drive so i can install windows 7 | 15:45 |
| Raven737 | airtonix: thank you! | 15:45 |
| CShadowRun | Raven737: i wouldn't recommend wubi for long term use, ntfs tends to be unstable and the drive images can occasionally corrupt | 15:45 |
| Guest70080 | can anyone help me ? | 15:45 |
| airtonix | Raven737, but before you do anything : a few questions : 1) how much free space do you have left ? | 15:46 |
| mezquitale | Guest70080, boot up into a live CD and use gparted | 15:46 |
| Guest70080 | i tried gparted | 15:46 |
| Raven737 | CShadowRun: yea i though so, but by drive image you mean just that which wuib would use, right? | 15:46 |
| mezquitale | Guest70080, and what happens? | 15:46 |
| CShadowRun | Raven737: yea, i had a friend who used wubi and one day he had a power cut, and then his drive image was corrupted and ubuntu wouldn't boot anymore. | 15:46 |
| Guest70080 | but when i right clicked the white bar that represented my harddrive, the "new" option isnt selectable | 15:46 |
| CShadowRun | Raven737: CD install is always best imo :) | 15:47 |
| Guest70080 | so then i tried using terminal and it says that because the amount of cylinders in my hard drive is more than 1024, it may present problems in booting and partitioning programs from other OS's | 15:48 |
| mezquitale | Guest70080, the first thing you want to do is create some free space, do you only have one partition? | 15:48 |
| Guest70080 | and sinse i'm trying to install windows 7 | 15:48 |
| Guest70080 | i thought i'd better not do it that way | 15:48 |
| Guest70080 | erm | 15:48 |
| Guest70080 | think theres two | 15:48 |
| Raven737 | CShadowRun: ok thanks, i'll read the guides and see which sems most dooable for me, thanks! | 15:48 |
| mezquitale | Guest70080, are you trying to install ubuntu or windows 7? | 15:48 |

| ashish | How i can completely remove Kubuntu-desktop | 15:51 |
| mezquitale | Guest70080, if you want to use gparted I recommend you use a live CD unless you know what youre doing, I can walk you through creating space but I dont know if it'll help you since it looks like you already have ubuntu and now youre going to install winwdows7 | 15:51 |
| Guest70080 | i'm doing this because i tried to install windows 7 by booting from disk and it said that it cant be installed on a partition not formatted as ntfs | 15:51 |

| Leoneof` | hello Ubuntu folks! | 15:59 |
| hwilde | persia, k | 16:00 |
| persia | hwilde: So, basically, jscalibrator miscalibrated the joystick except for *one game* for a long time. | 16:00 |
| hwilde | persia, without running jscalibrator, the logitech rumblepad analog sticks give bogus values. | 16:00 |
| persia | And *nothing* else used libjsw, or the jscalibrator output. | 16:00 |
| Guest70080 | hello ? | 16:01 |
| persia | hwilde: Given how jscalibrator works, that's a coincidence: for most joysticks (including a lot of logitech ones), it tended to break things. | 16:01 |
| Mefached | I understand that I won't get any support if I am to compile a new kernel for Ubuntu, but if anyone here has done so, what problems will I encounter? | 16:02 |
| persia | hwilde: So, try "jscal". It's command-line only, but it actually sets stuff that affects the input processing, using the kernel interfaces. | 16:02 |
| persia | As a result, it actually works. | 16:02 |
| Guest70080 | can't anyone help me please ? | 16:02 |
| Guest70080 | 3: | 16:02 |
| Leoneof` | i never installed compiz, but i see it in Processes in the System Monitor, how to disable it? | 16:02 |
| persia | (jscalibrator only wrote a hints config file for libjsw, which, as I said, was only used by *one game*) | 16:02 |
| hwilde | persia, yeah well all of our software libraries use it so that is going to be a bit of an effort. how do we access the joystics in c code with libjsw | 16:03 |

| selekta | mousetrap is in the ubuntu software center. Does it work for anyone else? I installed it properly then I click on the icon and it does nothing. It's making my laptop fan get all loud so I think I might have like 10 processes of it running. | 16:27 |
| Oponium | JonathanEllis, sorry. _LTS_ releases get updated after release. after a certain period of time. regular releases don't. | 16:27 |

| jasman | how make my ubuntu support ssh? | 16:29 |
| LinuxCommunity | Rich864: oh boy... generally it's recommended you install windows first then ubuntu | 16:29 |
| pcl0adl3tt3r | is there a way to access applications without the applications list? like going through the file explorer? | 16:29 |
| Tiders- | jasman, Server or client | 16:29 |
| MenZa | !ssh | jasman | 16:29 |
| ubottu | jasman: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for client usage. PuTTY is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for it's homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) | 16:29 |
| Rich864 | i had windows installed | 16:29 |
| LjL | pcl0adl3tt3r: yes, they are in /usr/bin generally | 16:29 |
| selekta | also how do i see what processes are running? and then stop the doubles? | 16:29 |
| JonathanEllis | Rich864: I just repartitioned to install windows. Can I help you? | 16:30 |
| LjL | pcl0adl3tt3r: or you can just type their name in a terminal | 16:30 |
| Rich864 | but made a few mistakes when installing ubuntu, and completely wiped windows vista off the system | 16:30 |
| miftahsan | hey everyone, can i turn on internal speaker in ubuntu, my external speaker is taken over | 16:30 |
| jasman | !sshd | 16:30 |

| pcl0adl3tt3r | what would network manager be called | 16:30 |
| LjL | selekta: "ps aux" will show running processes, "kill <number>" will kill them | 16:30 |
| LinuxCommunity | Rich864: that sucks | 16:30 |
| starcannon | JonathanEllis: you could use Remastersys to create a custom Ubuntu CD with your latest updates on it. http://www.ubuntugeek.com/creating-custom-ubuntu-live-cd-with-remastersys.html | 16:30 |
| LjL | selekta: or use gnome-system-monitor (i think that's what it's called), i guess | 16:30 |
| === joseph is now known as Guest75991 | ||
| Oponium | JonathanEllis, correct. | 16:30 |
| LinuxCommunity | Rich864: well you can install something like Gparted on ubuntu then create a new partition | 16:30 |
| xover | is updaterc-d the equivalent to checkconfig for red hat? | 16:30 |
| JonathanEllis | Oponium: Thanks. | 16:31 |
| Rich864 | JonathanEllis: Yes please, i tried to install windows 7, and it told me than it couldnt be installed on a partition that wasnt formatted to NTFS | 16:31 |
| Rich864 | i did installed Gparted, but it wouldnt let me create a new partition | 16:31 |
| Rich864 | install* | 16:31 |
| LinuxCommunity | Rich864: it should let you | 16:31 |
| SquareOne | Hi all. I can't find the information on the ubuntu download page, so I was hoping someone could tell me what the difference between Ubuntu desktop and ubuntu alternate edition. or provide a link where i can read for myself, please? | 16:31 |
| joepublic9 | Rich864: I would download and burn Gparted iso and format drive to ntfs with that. It's free | 16:31 |
| Rich864 | i selected my harddrive, then right clicked the white bar that represents my harddrive, and the "new" option wasnt highlighted | 16:31 |
| === ring1 is now known as ring0 | ||
| starcannon | Rich864 you need to install ntfsprogs in order to be able to format to ntfs | 16:32 |
| JonathanEllis | Rich864: Yes. Windows needs to be installed on a FAT, FAT32 or NTFS partition. It also has to be a primary partition. | 16:32 |
| pcl0adl3tt3r | i searched for network and only got proxy properties | 16:32 |
| Rich864 | okay, so which one of you fine gentlemen will tell me which option is easiest :) | 16:32 |
| lolmac | i'm trying to uninstall kubuntu | 16:33 |
| lolmac | and i get the error message | 16:33 |
| LinuxCommunity | Rich864: to install ntfsprogs | 16:33 |
| starcannon | Rich864 -- sudo apt-get install ntfsprogs -- then try gparted again, you should now be able to format a partition to ntfs | 16:33 |
| lolmac | Internal error | 16:33 |
| miftahsan | hey everyone, can i turn on internal speaker in ubuntu, my external speaker is taken over | 16:33 |
| lolmac | Failed to run pylauncher | 16:33 |
| lolmac | it's inside windows 7 | 16:33 |
| Rich864 | okay brb, i'll go try that | 16:33 |
| Rich864 | thanks | 16:33 |
| lolmac | and it says i don't have permission | 16:33 |
| JonathanEllis | Rich864: There are a few choices you can make while repartitioning to make your windows installation a bit more robust which I can take you through if you like | 16:33 |
| LinuxCommunity | Rich864:after you install ntfsprogs it is smooth sailing from there in gparted. | 16:33 |
| lolmac | but i am administrator | 16:33 |
| miftahsan | anybody wants to help me? | 16:33 |
| pcl0adl3tt3r | if someone answered, i missed it. what is the application name in /user/bin for the network settings | 16:33 |
| White_Pelican | hello all, is there an applet available that is more than just volume control? I need one with mixer settings | 16:34 |
| JonathanEllis | pcl0adl3tt3r: You can search through the channel on your name using [Ctrl] F to find any previous answers | 16:34 |
| pcl0adl3tt3r | thanks jonathanellis | 16:35 |
| bep | what group do I need to be in to use alsamixer? I get "alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory" but it works fine if I do sudo alsamixer | 16:35 |
| pcl0adl3tt3r | no one answered yet | 16:35 |
| Tiders- | lolmac, This isnt a support channel for asking questions about WIndows hosts try #windows | 16:35 |
| bep | I'm in the audio group already | 16:35 |
| JonathanEllis | White_Pelican: If you right click on the volume control and select "Open volume control" you get a mixer similar to the windows one. Is that what you want or are you looking for a proper mixing applet | 16:35 |
| lolmac | Tiders- | 16:35 |
| lolmac | thanks | 16:35 |
| Tiders- | lolmac, They will probably be able to help you more | 16:36 |
| lolmac | Tiders- | 16:36 |
| lolmac | do you know anything called pylauncher in linux? | 16:37 |
| White_Pelican | JonathanEllis, I am looking for a proper mixng applet | 16:37 |
| White_Pelican | I'm trying to replace what I had in kde | 16:37 |
| Rich864 | Okay, i'm back, i installed ntfsprogs and the "new" option in gparted still isnt clickable | 16:37 |
| pcl0adl3tt3r | can someone tell me the name of the application for network settings so i can launch it from user/bin/ rather than the system menu | 16:37 |
| Tiders- | lolmac, Im not sure sorry | 16:37 |
| JonathanEllis | Rich864: Do you still need help on partitioning for windows? I have spent the last few days doing that and sorting it to have separate partitions for Documents and Settings and other key directories | 16:37 |
| Rich864 | Yes please | 16:38 |
| Rich864 | but i just want this to go as fast as possible | 16:38 |
| Rich864 | my brother barely even uses his pc | 16:38 |
| SquareOne | I can't find out what Ubuntu Alternate version has. Can anyone tell me where I can find this? | 16:38 |
| Rich864 | so i don't really think he needs different partitions for documents and settings etc | 16:38 |
| JonathanEllis | White_Pelican: What do you want to mix? I am a sound engineer so I should be able to understand your question. You might also ask your question in #ubuntustudio as more audio people might hang out in there | 16:38 |
| houcine | salut | 16:39 |
| pcl0adl3tt3r | should i re-install ubuntu? I can't imagine doing all that for a single missing app | 16:39 |
| Rich864 | been trying to install windows 7 for like 2 hours now | 16:39 |
| JonathanEllis | Rich864: The advantage of separate partitions is that then changes in Docs & Settings cant fragment operating system and program files. In My experience, fragmentation on an NTFS volume is what slows down the pc the most | 16:40 |
| Ookami | ok everyone :D .. i hear ppl say things about "linux" being "virues free" .. what is that ? | 16:40 |
| meganox | pcl0adl3tt3r: you are not missing the application, it just doesn't do what you want, which is to disable the hardware itself | 16:40 |
| pcl0adl3tt3r | but other people have that option | 16:40 |
| pcl0adl3tt3r | all the documentation ive seen references this menu choice | 16:40 |
| White_Pelican | basically what I want to do is change the audio settings on the output and input | 16:40 |
| Rich864 | it's really hard to get a virus using ubuntu | 16:40 |
| Rich864 | but it's still possible | 16:40 |
| bep | is the only difference between a minimal install and the regular full install the ubuntu-desktop package? | 16:40 |
| water | yeah, linux is built to be pretty secure, so most hackers don't bother writing viruses for it | 16:41 |
| kinja-sheep | SquareOne: Text-based installation. Contains support for LVM + Encryption' | 16:41 |
| never2far | in ubuntu 9.10 i have another host command ...how can i use the old host command ...the difference between them is the output | 16:41 |
| kinja-sheep | !alternative | Suqare | 16:41 |
| ubottu | Suqare: The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the link on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal | 16:41 |
| kinja-sheep | SquareOne: See ^ | 16:41 |
| Ookami | hmm .. ok .. question #2 .. how are "linux and ubuntu" are related .. that might sound stupid .. but i wanna know ^^ | 16:41 |
| never2far | old command: $ host example.com | 16:41 |
| never2far | example.com A 192.0.32.10 ...new command: host example.com | 16:41 |
| never2far | example.com has address 192.0.32.10 | 16:41 |
| pcl0adl3tt3r | w00t! I just found how to install it | 16:42 |
| pcl0adl3tt3r | and it worked | 16:42 |
| JonathanEllis | Rich864: I have created separate partitions for windows, documents and settings, my documents, my music and swap space. So my windows installation is more like a linux installation. The swap file changes size all the time so if that is on the same partition as everything else it can cause fragmentation. | 16:42 |
| water | ubuntu is a linux distribution, there are many flavours of linux | 16:42 |
| SquareOne | kinja-sheep: thank-you. I could only find information on desktop and server versions, who's useage is rather obvious. | 16:42 |
| Rich864 | JonathanEllis: Thanks, i understand that, but it's my brothers PC that i'm trying to install Windows 7 on, and as i said, he barely ever uses it, so a little slowing down won't really affect him | 16:42 |
| jasman | !eggdrop | 16:42 |
| LinuxCommunity | never2far: you can try the command dig, dig google.com | 16:42 |
| Ookami | water, mm .. ubuntu is the best ?? ^^ ? | 16:42 |
| `mOOse` | pcl0adl3tt3r: I am not on my ubuntu install at the moment, but I know somewhere out there in the universe, there's a more comprehensive applet that controls nics ... you might want to check your Synaptic and browse | 16:43 |
| karma_police | is there a good prog out for converting VOB files to mpg? | 16:43 |
| pcl0adl3tt3r | will do | 16:43 |
| water | ubuntu is probably the most user friendly distro, and has a large hardware compatability out of the box | 16:43 |
| Ookami | water, thanks ^^ | 16:43 |
| water | ;) | 16:44 |
| never2far | LinuxCommunity, ty | 16:44 |
| LinuxCommunity | never2far: you welcome | 16:44 |
| JonathanEllis | Rich864: It also makes sense to keep your data separate from your programs to simplify backup and recovery. You will have to create a partition for windows anyway so why not start in a good way, then the pc should hopefully stay fast. This discussion could get quite involved. Would other people prefer it if we talked privately? Rich would that be better for you too? | 16:44 |
| Ookami | water, do you know what is the "BEST" way to have an "Audio conversation" in linux ? | 16:44 |
| `mOOse` | pcl0adl3tt3r: I can't promise it's in the normal repositories - make sure you have all of them installed so you can see ALL the software out there | 16:44 |
| water | I went with ubuntu fulltime after my windows would not install (weird, that never happened before, but i guess it was meant to be) | 16:44 |
| Rich864 | To be honest, he hasn't given me a reason why he doesnt like ubuntu, he hasn't even tried it, so i'm having to install windows on his computer again, and he's not exactly saying please, so as long as windows is installed on his PC, i don't care how slow it goes :) | 16:44 |
| water | possibly skype? | 16:44 |
| JonathanEllis | Rich864: I take it you wont be using the windows yourself then? | 16:45 |
| water | I use skype for phone service, as well to call pc to pc | 16:45 |
| kinja-sheep | Rich864: Got an external HDD? You could use dd to copy the hard drive, byte for byte so it will be exactly same! :o | 16:45 |
| meganox | pcl0adl3tt3r: The last section of this article, "Ignore Specific Devices" could help you: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NetworkManager#Ignore_specific_devices | 16:45 |
| Ookami | water, i tried skype Beta version .. the voice has a "wosshhh" kinda thing .. from my "mic input" side .. do you know anything i can do to fix that ? | 16:45 |
| Rich864 | the only external drive i have is a 4gb memory stick | 16:45 |
| Rich864 | which probably wont be enough | 16:46 |
| wolter | anybody having startup problems with conky? | 16:46 |
| `mOOse` | Rich864: to install ubuntu on? | 16:46 |
| `mOOse` | it's plenty big enough | 16:46 |
| White_Pelican | I can't seem to find any applets for volume control anymore | 16:46 |
| water | maybe you can try a different mic, like a usb one. | 16:46 |
| Rich864 | i don't want to install ubuntu | 16:46 |
| kinja-sheep | wolter: #conky | 16:46 |
| `mOOse` | I have a usb install of 9.10 and a 3 gig casper-rw and it works great | 16:46 |
| JonathanEllis | Rich864: What OS are you using now? | 16:47 |
| water | i know my laptop mic isnt that great | 16:47 |
| `mOOse` | oh sorry - misunderstood | 16:47 |
| kinja-sheep | White_Pelican: System --> Preferences --. Sound? | 16:47 |
| water | yeah, and try playing with the sound settings | 16:47 |
| Ookami | usb mic ... sounds cool .. is it "better" ? | 16:47 |
| pcl0adl3tt3r | meganox: thank you | 16:47 |
| kinja-sheep | Ookami: Try reducing the mic input voice a bit. See if that help. | 16:48 |
| ad_ | hi | 16:48 |
| White_Pelican | says waiting for sound system to respond | 16:48 |
| Ookami | kinja-sheep .. it's either "too low to hear" or "wooshy" | 16:48 |
| JonathanEllis | Ookami: Any microphone whether usb or analog is only as good as the capsule. You can buy professional mics with usb outputs but maybe that is not what you want | 16:48 |
| === Mud is now known as Guest51179 | ||

| water | usb usually only if your soundcard doesn't work well | 16:49 |
| Ookami | JonathanEllis, lol .. true .. what's a capsule .. and what should i do to get the "best" sound possible | 16:49 |
| JonathanEllis | Rich864: Can you refresh my memory on what the partitioning problem is and what you want to achieve? | 16:49 |
| Hans_Henrik | is it a bug on www.ubuntu.com now? on the side <^, you see big black letters spelling "p or laptop" (with no other text near it/explaining it) | 16:49 |

| kinja-sheep | Rich864: Are you experimenting with Ubuntu? | 16:52 |
| Tiders- | Trota Ubuntu is a distribution of Linux | 16:52 |
| water | the hiss might be due to mic sensitivity being too high, or the 'mic boost' being on | 16:52 |
| `mOOse` | Ookami: do you have a windows machine? if so, have you tried skype on that os? | 16:52 |
| WTFsound | HAAALP | 16:52 |
| water | you can control those in sound settings | 16:52 |
| JonathanEllis | Ookami: In that case, any microphone will do. The closer the mic is to your mouth, the less background noise and room reverberance it will pick up so you will get better quality sound. You might need to reduce the gain so it doesnt distort though | 16:52 |
| WTFsound | uhmmm | 16:52 |
| WTFsound | @water let me see... | 16:52 |
| Trota | so ubuntu is like a computer? | 16:53 |

| `mOOse` | s like a computer | 16:53 |
| Ookami | Torta, Ubuntu is an Operating System .. like Windows XP and Mac | 16:53 |
| WTFsound | @water: where i set mic sens.? | 16:53 |
| JonathanEllis | Trota: Ubuntu is an operating system, a bit like Windows is an Operating System or MacOS | 16:53 |
| Trota | im confused | 16:53 |
| JonathanEllis | well actually not quite like windows :-), hopefully more reliable! | 16:54 |
| wolter | Trota, ubuntu is a program, but the really basic program your computer runs | 16:54 |
| water | :) | 16:54 |
| JonathanEllis | and its free unlike M$ | 16:54 |
| wolter | without it, your computer wouldn't be useful. | 16:54 |
| Trota | so its like paint? | 16:54 |
| Ookami | JonathanEllis, loool very true :P | 16:54 |
| WTFsound | >_< water | 16:54 |
| wolter | Trota, ok now I think you're playing a joke on us | 16:54 |
| WTFsound | where i set mic sensiivity? | 16:54 |

| wolter | Trota, but yes, just a million times more functional | 16:54 |

| Trota | my teacher told me to look up for ubuntu | 16:54 |
| Ookami | Torta, it's an OS ^^ | 16:54 |
| JonathanEllis | Trota: Its what all programs like paint, office etc run on top of | 16:54 |

| WTFsound | btw ubuntu is nice | 16:57 |
| water | WTFsound maybe it's the drivers | 16:57 |
| Zaeon | what am i misisng to get this logic to work | 16:57 |
| JonathanEllis | Ookami: Right click on the loudspeaker icon at the top of your screen and select Open Volume Control. Go to the Recording tab or the Switches tab | 16:57 |
| Ookami | water, "input Volume" .. only that ? | 16:57 |
| WTFsound | i can use Gutiar Rig on wine perfectly | 16:57 |
| water | Ookami yeah, i suppose that's it | 16:57 |
| WTFsound | but that noise fucks me up | 16:57 |
| wolter | WTFsound, what is the noise like? Interference? | 16:58 |
| intel | how to share the screen over the internet | 16:58 |
| wolter | WTFsound, like a tv channel with no signal? | 16:58 |
| Ookami | JonathanEllis, can't see any "volume control" .. unless you mean "sound Prefrences" | 16:58 |

| nmvictor | No one here using emacs, everybody switched to gedit ha? | 16:58 |
| wolter | intel, there is an application called gitso, you might want to check that out | 16:58 |
| Ookami | water, i tried that before .. nothing good happen ^^ | 16:58 |
| WTFsound | someone here record songs on his ubuntu? | 16:58 |

| wolter | kinja-sheep, hows your xps m1530? | 17:00 |

| kinja-sheep | wolter: You? | 17:01 |
| wolter | WTFsound, is your sound heard in the recording or constantly while using the desktop | 17:01 |
| WTFsound | recording, when i activate to hear the noise, the sound its not there | 17:02 |
| wolter | kinja-sheep, better than ever. Just upgraded to kernel 2.6.32 and removed pulseaudio. Also, haven't had kernel panics in months | 17:02 |
| WTFsound | *to hear de mic | 17:02 |
| wolter | WTFsound, do your recordings work on windows? | 17:02 |
| WTFsound | yes, and very well | 17:02 |
| Ookami | wolter, what is pulseaudio .. ?? | 17:02 |
| sweetandy | WTFsound: I've run into similar problems when recording under linux. If you intend on using linux for music production, I'd suggest using the JACK audio server, which provides low-latency, high quality audio management. It is, unfortunately, not particularly easy to set up. | 17:03 |
| ubuntutrepxe | My university has a wi-fi network, which uses NTLM authentication. My laptop connects to this network using wlan0, and i use CNTLM for proxy authentication. Now, i want to connect a desktop computer to the laptop using laptop's eth0, and i want all traffic through laptop's eth0 to be proxied through CNTLM with gateway device as wlan0 such that i dont need to make proxy settings on the desktop. how can this be done? | 17:03 |
| WTFsound | yes, i set up jack | 17:03 |
| wolter | Ookami, are you Trota-ing? | 17:03 |
| sweetandy | Ah. | 17:03 |
| sweetandy | Nevermind. | 17:03 |
| sweetandy | :P | 17:03 |
| WTFsound | but still have noise | 17:03 |
| Ookami | actully ,, no ^^ | 17:03 |
| wolter | WTFsound, maybe the guys at #linux can help, there are pretty wise guys there | 17:03 |
| starcannon | Ookami: <Ookami> | 17:04 |
| h00k | Does anyone have an idea as to why an SSH session wouldn't fully connect and it's suddenly getting stuck on: "debug1: Offering public key: /home/anthony/.ssh/id_rsa"? I have been using key-based authentication. | 17:04 |
| Ookami | wolter, no man ^^ .. i'm just wondering .. + .. i'm a "beginner" | 17:04 |
| wolter | WTFsound, or it could be the application you are using to record... which one is it? | 17:04 |
| starcannon | Ookami: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PulseAudio | 17:04 |
| starcannon | try that again lol sorry | 17:04 |
| ctmjr | !pulseaudio|Ookami: | 17:04 |
| ubottu | Ookami:: PulseAudio is a sound server intended as a drop-in replacement for !ESD - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio for information and installation instructions | 17:04 |
| WTFsound | wolter: in ubuntu server? | 17:04 |
| wolter | Ookami, oh... I had this idea i had seen your name before long ago ~i thought you were "pro"-ish | 17:04 |
| wolter | WTFsound, yes | 17:04 |
| wolter | Ookami, its like the default audio system installed | 17:04 |
| wolter | Ookami, but i prefer alsa so much better | 17:05 |
| Ookami | lool .. i'm not ^^ "pro"ish .. i think i have this pulsaudio thing .. and i'm having problems in my "mic" when try to have audio conversations .. can you help me somehow | 17:05 |
| Ookami | how do i know ,, which one i have .. pulseaudio .. or alsa ? | 17:05 |
| Ben64 | Hi. I got 8.04, and python is way screwed, how can I fix it? It keeps saying "No module named ___" (whatever program I'm trying to run) | 17:06 |
| wolter | Ookami, you are using pulseaudio, its ubuntu's default | 17:06 |
| SirTopHat | I apt-get install'd otfc-hybrid on my Ubuntu PC, but it's not accepting IRC connections from port 6667. | 17:06 |
| wolter | Ookami, have you looked that problem up? | 17:06 |
| Ookami | wolter, hmm .. so what should i do ^^ ? | 17:06 |
| SirTopHat | that was the first thing in the list from apt-get install ircd | 17:07 |
| wolter | Ookami, you want to try out alsa? | 17:07 |
| wolter | Ookami, perhaps you should look up that problem more and get to know if it is related to pulseaudio | 17:07 |
| starcannon | I have found Pulse to be very good since 8.10 /shrug | 17:07 |
| WTFsound | on #linux noone helps. | 17:07 |
| Ookami | wolter, i guess .. but i don't want to lose my "sound card" .. cuz it happens before | 17:07 |
| wolter | Ookami, to use alsa you'd better install the new kernel (easy, I can point you to a 3 step guide) and then install some other stuff | 17:07 |
| SirTopHat | ??? | 17:07 |
| WTFsound | ... | 17:07 |
| wolter | Ookami, pulseaudio is based on alsa, so don't worry about that | 17:08 |
| WTFsound | :C | 17:08 |
| kinja-sheep | SirTopHat: Use Port 8001? | 17:08 |
| wolter | WTFsound, did you go to #linux or ##linux | 17:08 |
| Ookami | wolter, "i'm updating regularly" .. i see "kernel" updates .. is that it ^^ | 17:08 |
| JonathanEllis | Can I have some opinions please? I am planning a dual boot with windows and Jaunty. I may want to try another release in the future but I will want to keep my working config intact. In the past I have had a separate /boot/grub partition as keeping the bootloader and the OS separate seemed like a sensible idea, so if I lost one OS I could still boot the others. That didnt answer completely as each time I install another distro/release it would either | 17:08 |
| jas72z | mad cows disease bird flu swine flu its farmageddon | 17:08 |
| WTFsound | ups... | 17:08 |
| WTFsound | ##linux | 17:08 |
| ][ceman | I'm using net ads join to get attached to a windows server 2003 Active directory. I'm now getting an error after configuring smb.conf. Do you have to specify an OU if you don't have rights to the to the base? | 17:08 |
| SirTopHat | that doesn't accept either | 17:08 |
| crickle | hi, how can i pull up all the files and directories that have 777 permissions on them? | 17:08 |
| wolter | WTFsound, xchat converts my #linux to ##linux automatically, but if not join ##linux | 17:08 |

| wolter | Ookami, open up a terminal and run [$ uname -r] | 17:09 |
| wolter | Ookami, you'll get probably something like 2.6.31.X | 17:09 |
| h00k | Does anyone have an idea as to why an SSH session wouldn't fully connect and it's suddenly getting stuck on: "debug1: Offering public key: /home/anthony/.ssh/id_rsa"? I have been using key-based authentication. | 17:09 |
| kinja-sheep | SirTopHat: Gotcha. I'm guessing you have to read the manual. Also, configure your firewalls. | 17:09 |
| wolter | Ookami, thats the current kernel version ubuntu distributes | 17:09 |
| LinuxCommunity | h00k: when you installed the SSH did the computer make the keys properly | 17:09 |
| SirTopHat | agh why does everything need a manual | 17:09 |
| wolter | Ookami, the ubuntu guys have us like in a bubble, which is good because they protect us from disease | 17:10 |
| JonathanEllis | h00k: Thanks | 17:10 |
| wolter | Ookami, but kernel 2.6.32 is actually better in many ways | 17:10 |
| WTFsound | sweetandy: can you explain me more about configuring correctly jack? | 17:10 |
| h00k | LinuxCommunity: it did, and they even worked last night. Nothing has chanced since. | 17:10 |
| jas72z | I was going to upgrade to karmic but seems very large upgrade im using ubuntu 9.04 | 17:10 |
| Ookami | wolter .. what's the command again please ^^ | 17:10 |
| WTFsound | if i see if i can remove the hiss with it | 17:10 |
| h00k | LinuxCommunity: they have been working for approximately a year. | 17:10 |
| wolter | Ookami, for example, i had this problem with filtering in banshee.. it was too slow (all sqlite was slow) and with the new kernel my problem got solved | 17:10 |
| wolter | Ookami, uname -r | 17:10 |
| sweetandy | WTFsound: Unfortunately not really, and even if I could, I've only done it under Arch linux, not Ubuntu :( | 17:10 |
| h00k | LinuxCommunity: also, my .ssh/id_rsa key is correct | 17:10 |
| CMoH | hey. is it possible to install a jaunty domU under a hardy xen install (dom0) ? i see xen-tools and debootstrap don't have a jaunty profile on hardy | 17:11 |
| wolter | Ookami, I just like to enclose in [] to let people know what is normal blabber text and what is actually important text | 17:11 |
| LinuxCommunity | h00k: strange as can be, i was running SSH on my server but there was no point cause i make all changes internally so i decided just telet it. but thats me. | 17:11 |
| SirTopHat | nevermind I got it | 17:11 |
| LinuxCommunity | h00k: so the only problem is connecting | 17:11 |
| Ookami | very true ^^ .. i was putting "my username" instead of "uname" .. anyhow my bad lol .. i got you man | 17:11 |
| h00k | LinuxCommunity: Yeah, I don't want to telnet. | 17:11 |
| Ookami | wolter, it' says 2.6.31 - 16-generic | 17:12 |
| djburns | crickle, stat -c "%a - %n" ./* | grep '777' | 17:12 |
| WTFsound | i have another doubt | 17:12 |
| h00k | LinuxCommunity: correct | 17:12 |
| WTFsound | how the fuck you compile from sources gcc ? lol | 17:12 |
| WTFsound | with wich compiler? | 17:12 |
| wolter | Ookami, of course, its the latest ubuntu distributed kernel | 17:12 |
| syk | !language | 17:12 |
| ubottu | Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 17:12 |
| Ookami | wolter, so .. i'm good to go .. ? | 17:12 |
| LjL | WTFsound: gcc can be used to compile gcc itself | 17:13 |
| Ookami | wolter, or need to update ^^ ? | 17:13 |
| wolter | Ookami, but do you really want to upgrade your kernel? If you have nvidia graphics card (and drivers) you don't have to worry about graphic driver issues | 17:13 |
| LinuxCommunity | WTFsound: sudo apt-get install gcc or sudo apt-get install g++ | 17:13 |
| starcannon | WTFsound: sudo apt-get install build-essential | 17:13 |
| wolter | Ookami, its totally optional | 17:13 |
| WTFsound | yesyes i know | 17:13 |
| starcannon | WTFsound: then its usually make then make install | 17:13 |
| WTFsound | but if youre on a distro that has not repository support | 17:13 |
| krishna | Hi | 17:13 |
| ikonia | WTFsound: this channel is for ubuntu support, are you having a problem with an ubuntu install ? | 17:14 |
| sweetandy | WTFsound: Get a binary version of gcc? | 17:14 |
| starcannon | WTFsound, ah, well... crack your knuckles and start googling? hehe | 17:14 |
| Ookami | wolter, hmmm .. man i'm confused .. all i want is a better "audio conversation" capabilities ^^ | 17:14 |
| starcannon | or what sweetandy said | 17:14 |
| krishna | i reinstalled ubuntu karmic. but now, its not accessing all my ntfs drives in my harddisk.. previously it did. now it says "not authorised" .. plz help, urgent,. i need the data from those drives. plz | 17:14 |
| trism | WTFsound: http://gcc.gnu.org/install/prerequisites.html | 17:14 |
| wolter | Ookami, yeah, I just said you could use alsa instead of pulseaudio, but that you should really look up if you're problem is really related to pulseaudio. What application are you using to audio chat? | 17:14 |
| WTFsound | ;J | 17:14 |
| ikonia | krishna: that normally means it's in need of a chkdisk in the windows install, it's marked as dirty | 17:15 |
| wolter | krishna, you just need to setup the rights for it | 17:15 |
| ikonia | krishna: the error can be quite miss-leading | 17:15 |
| wolter | krishna, oh ignore me then | 17:15 |
| krishna | ikonia, ok. what shall i do now ? | 17:15 |
| NIGG | well chaps | 17:15 |
| ikonia | krishna: boot into windows and chkdisk them | 17:15 |
| NIGG | am off to install debian | 17:15 |
| NIGG | its been fun | 17:15 |
| ikonia | krishna: that may not be the actual problem, however that seems to be the most common | 17:15 |
| Ookami | wolter, only skype for know ,, do you know any other things .. i just don't know any on ubuntu .. pidgin have to voice .. empathy have no voice .. aaaaah it's problematic lol .. or i'm just a beginner i guess | 17:16 |
| Ookami | for now* | 17:16 |
| Ben64 | Hi. I got 8.04, and python is way screwed, how can I fix it? It keeps saying "No module named ___" (whatever program I'm trying to run) | 17:16 |
| krishna | ikonia, ok. i'll do that now | 17:16 |
| `mOOse` | Ookami: you got xp or win7 on a machine? | 17:16 |
| JonathanEllis | ookami | 17:16 |
| Ookami | 'mOOse' yes .. vista .. it works better as i recall .. like skype works better there | 17:16 |
| wolter | Ookami, no... audio chat in linux is a bit less common than it is in windows | 17:16 |
| wolter | Ookami, so its not as supported as it should be | 17:16 |
| JonathanEllis | Ookami: There is another audio conferencing application. Let me have a look | 17:17 |

| wolter | Ookami, what is specifically your skype problem? | 17:17 |
| Ookami | JonathanEllis, please :D .. thanks a lot | 17:17 |
| JonathanEllis | Ookami: Ekiga comes installed with Ubuntu | 17:17 |
| SirTopHat | I can't figure out from google or man ircd how to restart ircd | 17:17 |
| SirTopHat | without restarting the whole PC | 17:17 |
| wolter | Ookami, yes, but probably your contacts dont have ekiga | 17:17 |
| `mOOse` | ok, well, make sure ...that way at least you can take your ISP out of the possibilities | 17:17 |
| Ookami | wolter, the mic from my side .. is the only problem .. i's not clear enough | 17:17 |
| Ookami | wolter, i'm talking with ppl using "windows" .. anyway .. what is ekiga ?? | 17:17 |
| wolter | Ookami, i guess they use skype, don't they? | 17:18 |
| JonathanEllis | Ookami: Go to Add/Remove Applications or Software Centre and search for phone. Seems like there are a few | 17:18 |
| Ookami | yup | 17:18 |
| wolter | Ookami, ekiga is like another skype, but is not compatbile with it | 17:18 |
| ctmjr | blue: sounds like your card is fried or came dislodged from it's slot | 17:18 |
| Ookami | JonathanEllis, alright .. i'll look up something | 17:18 |

| om26er | does bootchart also show the time taken by grub? | 17:19 |
| blue | ctmjr: yea I thought that so i unpluged it and pluged it back in but still nothing. If it was fried though u would think I would have had issues some flickers or something but nothing it rebooted without a issue just didnt come back on. | 17:19 |

| kinja-sheep | Ookami: "sudo aptitude install padevchooser" and edit your mic input! | 17:20 |
| Ookami | wolter, in "input-level" if too low .. i can't be heard "as low voice" .. if high .. it gets wooshy .. | 17:21 |
| ctmjr | blue: by chance do you have another open slot you can plug it into, | 17:21 |

| ubottu | DNS is an acronym for Domain Name System, and is an internet system used to translate names into IP Address. | 17:26 |
| overloadbr | i use sshd/ssh withou problems mezquitale... | 17:26 |
| ikonia | Sorrel: what's the actual problem you're having ? | 17:26 |
| crickle | Ben64: what is -ho? | 17:26 |

| Ben64 | crickle: displays more info about the files listed | 17:27 |
| Ookami | wolter, thanks for all the help man :D .. pretty much appreciated ^^ | 17:27 |
| Sorrel | I have a static IP | 17:27 |
| wolter | no problme | 17:27 |
| kinja-sheep | Sorrel: Edit Connections in Network Manager (on notification area). | 17:27 |
| iceroot_ | Sorrel: for that you dont need a dns-server | 17:27 |

| soopos | How can you get access to the Google Calendar of Ubuntu's release schedule for the next release? | 17:27 |
| ikonia | Sorrel: on a home connection ? | 17:27 |
| Sorrel | yes | 17:27 |
| mezquitale | Sorrel, I do not believe you are asking the correct question | 17:27 |
| ikonia | Sorrel: I'd strongly recommend against it | 17:27 |
| Sorrel | I have a domain name as well. | 17:27 |
| ikonia | Sorrel: plus you'll need 2 IP addresses to meet the DNS requirments for name servers, or access to two DNS servers | 17:28 |
| crickle | Ben64: i ran ls -ho | grep rwxrwxrwx and got nothing at all just jumped to next line | 17:28 |
| iceroot_ | Sorrel: again, for that YOU dont need a dns server | 17:28 |
| ikonia | Sorrel: on a home connection this is not a good idea | 17:28 |
| Sorrel | I have a "Bussiness connection" with 5 IPs | 17:28 |
| Ben64 | crickle: then you don't have any files with permissions 777 in that directory | 17:28 |
| ctmjr | Pizza1337: sorry thought the bot had info on lirc but i guess not but any way lirc is the app that controls remote controls on linux but it ca be a pain to set up | 17:28 |
| djburns | Ben64, looks ok, what modules does it ask for when you try and run a program? | 17:28 |
| Pici | soopos: There is no Google Calendar for that. Theres the release schedule thats on the Wiki: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidReleaseSchedule and also the Fridge Calendar which is on Google, and may have some of those events (among other ones): http://fridge.ubuntu.com/calendar | 17:29 |
| Ben64 | djburns: like when i try to run "cfv" it asks for "cfv" | 17:29 |
| iceroot_ | Sorrel: put your domain in /etc/hosts then say your domain-provider that he should point the domain to your ip adress | 17:29 |
| Ben64 | djburns: when i try to run bittornado, it wants "BitTornado" | 17:29 |
| iceroot_ | Sorrel: but YOU dont need to setup an dns-server | 17:29 |

| sheaf | hey, quick question, how do I get to launch sudo conky at startup? | 17:35 |
| sheaf | just putting sudo conky in autostart.sh obviously doesn't work | 17:35 |
| SirTopHat | apparently unzip is supposed to work on .tar.gz files but no | 17:35 |
| sheaf | and I tried editing sudoers and everything I did wasn't of any use | 17:35 |
| airtonix | sheaf why do you need to use sudo on conky? | 17:36 |
| === Guest29786 is now known as Sharker | ||

| Ben64 | crickle: ok... what do you mean by paths | 17:36 |
| sheaf | well it's for the wireless things | 17:36 |
| sheaf | seeing as I'm using the broadcom drivers | 17:36 |
| sheaf | it needs sudo to access information | 17:36 |
| sheaf | ie iwconfig says nothing | 17:36 |
| === Sharker is now known as Guest19153 | ||
| sheaf | and sudo iwconfig gives info | 17:36 |

| ubottu | sheaf: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 17:36 |
| crickle | Ben64: lets say my file is list.txt i want it to show /user/private/folder/list.txt | 17:36 |
| airtonix | sheaf, then you need to re-think how you are designing your conky layout | 17:37 |
| krdyt | airtonix, pyrenamer rename the extention? all ive found iss stuff to rename the file name and not the jpg or .mp3 | 17:37 |
| LinuxCommunity | sheaf: gksudo nautilus i don't know if this is relavent but you can in gnome access the root folders and files read and write with this command it opens a window that allows you to mod files folders | 17:37 |
| SirTopHat | the same file opened in less than a second in windows's 7-zip | 17:37 |
| nmvictor | how do i install emacs Lisp library in ubuntu? | 17:37 |
| SirTopHat | root@xkcd-desktop:~# tar -x anope-1.8.2.tar.gz | 17:37 |
| sheaf | no but it's a known problem that conky needs sudo to be able to display wireless info for cards with broadcom drivers | 17:37 |
| airtonix | krdyt, you can do it with sed but that gets complicated, pyrenamer seems to do it : i can test it though. | 17:37 |
| SirTopHat | it's been on that for a minute now | 17:37 |
| sheaf | because iwconfig doesn't display the wireless information if it isn't sudo | 17:37 |
| SirTopHat | it's only 1.5MB | 17:37 |
| sheaf | I mean I would rather have a fix for that thing that being forced to run conky sudo, obviously, but after searching I haven't found anything | 17:38 |
| airtonix | sheaf, i assume you are using iwconfig to obtain things like the wan address ? | 17:38 |

| airtonix | sheaf you should read through the crunchbang forums they have lots of info on using conky for various things | 17:40 |
| JonathanEllis | LinuxCommunity: OK. Great. | 17:40 |
| ctmjr | SirTopHat: what are you tying to do | 17:40 |
| SirTopHat | install anope so I can have chanserv and nickserv on my IRC server. | 17:41 |

| SirTopHat | ok | 17:41 |
| davertron | hi guys, when I boot my machine, i no longer have the user status applet in the top right (usually shows my username, allows me to shutdown/restart/etc, and shows my pidgin status)...this happened after an upgrade from jaunty to karmic; any ideas? what is that application called, and how do i relaunch it? | 17:41 |
| SirTopHat | so how am I supposed to do it then | 17:41 |
| sheaf | airtonix> I did, but I mean it's just a special problem with broadcom drivers, and as conky uses iwconfig internally to get the wireless info, it needs to be run with sudo otherwise it can't get the info | 17:42 |
| SirTopHat | apparently it needs to be compiled, and there's no apt-get for it | 17:42 |
| om26er | !samba | 17:42 |
| ubottu | Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 17:42 |
| SirTopHat | dpkg -i on the .tar.gz didn't get anything either | 17:42 |
| sheaf | I can't guarantee I haven't missed it but I did search extensively before coming here | 17:42 |
| airtonix | krdyt, yes pyrenamer is the program you want : 1) navigate to your files you want to rename 2) multi-highlight them 3) (tabs down bottom) select substitutions 4) tick replace 5) first field : CHK second field : mp3 | 17:42 |
| ctmjr | SirTopHat: well there should be a INSTALL or README file but normally you have to run ./configure with options first | 17:42 |
| SirTopHat | oh | 17:42 |
| SirTopHat | hm | 17:42 |
| ubuntu | kk | 17:42 |

| Ben64 | crickle: find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 ls -ho | grep rwxrwxrwx | 17:43 |
| airtonix | sheaf, be creative and create an external script that makes use of iwconfig, and inside your conky layout make a call to 'gksudo script-that-uses-iwconfig' | 17:43 |
| crickle | wahahg | 17:43 |
| krdyt | thaks airtonix ill get to it now. ive been going at this for 3 days lol | 17:43 |

| SirTopHat | hm lots of these gcc's it's doing are making warnings. | 17:45 |
| SirTopHat | a problem or no | 17:45 |

| davertron | how do i re-launch a crashed fast-user-switch-applet | 17:45 |
| krdyt | yea, ive never heard of this before | 17:45 |
| ikonia | SirTopHat: are you trying to build GCC ? | 17:45 |
| SirTopHat | no | 17:45 |
| airtonix | sheaf, that way you'll only have to run sudo for the particular components of your conky layout that require them, and by using gksudo it means that you'll get a gtk dialog asking for the authentication | 17:45 |
| SirTopHat | heh | 17:45 |
| ikonia | phew | 17:45 |
| krdyt | ive been trying bash scripts and something called chk-mate for windows | 17:46 |

| SirTopHat | just running ./make in my folder of this thing I forget the name of | 17:46 |
| SirTopHat | anope | 17:46 |
| krdyt | since windows does this to a lot of peoples files during diskCHK | 17:46 |
| ikonia | SirTopHat: what are ou trying to build ? | 17:46 |
| krdyt | night, NOTHING lol | 17:46 |
| airtonix | krdyt, bash script will do it but to get them working you really need to concentrate of the study of several concepts | 17:47 |

| kunze | Thank you | 18:04 |
| akash | kunze:it replaces a currently running app with the one you're using the command for :: for ex: emerald --replace would replace metacity with emerald | 18:04 |

| aar | kunze, I think hyou need to tell usa bit more about the context | 18:05 |

| FeasibilityStudy | God I hate Pulseaudio. It keeps crashing, and I am getting incessant "rate limit" errors in /var/log/messages. What can i do to debug this? | 18:09 |

| Ben64 | FeasibilityStudy: you can totally remove pusleaudio | 18:10 |
| airtonix | `mOOse`, why do you insist on this ridiculous nick ? | 18:10 |
| FeasibilityStudy | Ben64: Yes I know, but I need a sound server | 18:10 |
| FeasibilityStudy | I am thinking of just going with OSSv4. | 18:10 |
| Ben64 | you can remove pulseaudio, and audio will still work. | 18:10 |
| airtonix | `mOOse`, also : is audacious not lite ? | 18:10 |
| `mOOse` | uh I suppose for the same reason you insist on your ridiculous nick? I dunno...is that a trick question? | 18:10 |

| thevishy | reason* | 18:11 |
| FeasibilityStudy | `mOOse`: you fail | 18:11 |
| airtonix | `mOOse`, no audacity is the recording one | 18:11 |
| `mOOse` | oh, because it's the nick I use on several other irc nets, where mOOse is usually taken | 18:12 |
| airtonix | `mOOse`, audacious is the winamp 2.91 clone | 18:12 |

| jrib | Pipi772: whatever window manager you want, run it and read its documentation on how to start programs on login. At gdm, if you click Options, you can select your window manager. Alternatively, create your own xsession | 19:52 |
| module000 | duncanidaho: that's common according to some threads i'm reading...the workaround is to change udev's rules to create a device node with user-accessible permissiosn instead of the default perms of 600 for your scanner | 19:52 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: what you might find though is that the manual installer or gparted, doesn't want to set things up quite like that, for example wanting SWAP as the second partition or something. or maybe for some reason you need to make an extended partition even | 19:52 |
| jrib | rip: run it and see :P I can't remember if it allows the whole system or just home | 19:52 |

| Catalin_ | hello I need some urgent help | 20:01 |
| Flannel | resno: Linux makes no differentiation between "Server" and "Desktop" installs, they're just programs that run. So, you can install your server things, and (optionally) turn off/remove your GUI things, and you'll be set | 20:01 |

| Flannel | darthanubis: #ubuntu-offtopic, thanks | 20:01 |
| Irakirashia | Sorry for that. | 20:01 |
| OerHeks | resno, open terminal > sudo tasksel | 20:02 |
| sebsebseb | darthanubis: I found out a little while ago, I got two articles to read on that, but helping LizardK|ng and yes Flannel is right it's off topic | 20:02 |

| darthanubis | Flannel, per the topic in this channel it is not really all that OT is it? | 20:02 |
| jrib | Catalin_: sed | 20:02 |
| sebsebseb | darthanubis: it's not Ubuntu support, so off topic | 20:02 |
| erUSUL | Catalin_: with sed or ed | 20:02 |
| nonexks | is there a command line i can type in to get xubuntu to force boot from live cd | 20:02 |
| Catalin_ | I am a bigg noob | 20:02 |
| Flannel | darthanubis: Yes, it is. That's not Ubuntu support. Non-support Ubuntu discussions belong in #ubuntu-offtopic, thanks again for understanding. | 20:02 |
| Catalin_ | could you give me the code in private ? | 20:03 |
| === AnarchistPig is now known as kronix | ||
| resno | OerHeks: never knew that existed! | 20:03 |
| jrib | Catalin_: you shouldn't run sed on large batches of file unless you know what you are doing | 20:03 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: ok made your / yet? | 20:03 |
| OerHeks | resno have fun | 20:03 |
| resno | OerHeks: learn something new everyday! | 20:03 |
| LizardK|ng | sebsebseb, i made all three, but you said / should be first and not swap? | 20:04 |

| sprockets | what is the best dock for ubuntu, | 20:04 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: you end up doing some stuff twice basically if you use gparted first, but that's ok | 20:04 |
| Flannel | sprockets: A lot of people like AWN | 20:04 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: I said it probably doesn't really matter, but you probably want SWAP at the end ideally | 20:04 |
| darthanubis | !best > sprockets | 20:04 |
| ubottu | sprockets, please see my private message | 20:04 |
| jrib | Catalin_: you need to learn about sed and find. Find some examples and understand them. | 20:04 |
| apanda | btw i have sorted my problem with the ati driver.. if anyone cares, something, probably envyng had put this into my xorg.conf : http://pastebin.com/d3147711c | 20:04 |
| Hillshum | sprockets: GNOME-Do's docky theme is another possibility | 20:04 |
| Catalin_ | ok thx | 20:05 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: go with the Ext4 file system :) | 20:05 |
| nonexks | i cant get my xubuntu to load live cd so i can erase the system and install something else | 20:05 |
| LizardK|ng | sebsebseb, i think i want to stick with ext3 for now. why shouldn't i put in a label? | 20:05 |
| Catalin_ | jrib if I give you the code that I need to remove can you give me the exact command ? | 20:05 |
| raul_ | how can I copy songs from a CD to my computer in MP3 format? | 20:06 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: ,because a label is not needed, and stick with Ext3 why? | 20:06 |
| kermit | raul_: sound juicer | 20:06 |
| raul_ | kermit thanks | 20:06 |
| nonexks | raul_: Grip | 20:06 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: you can do a label if you really want sure, but I woudn't | 20:06 |
| jeansch | raul_, soundjuicer but i suggest you to considere the ogg formet | 20:06 |
| LizardK|ng | sebsebseb, i was reading ext4 still isn;t fully stable and sometimes data is lost when it crashes | 20:06 |
| jrib | Catalin_: create some test files so you can experiment. Here is how to delete "FOO" in a file named FILE: sed -i 's/FOO//g' FILE | 20:06 |
| raul_ | which one is much better? Grip or sound juicer? | 20:06 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: oh right that ok | 20:07 |
| jeansch | raul_, sj is easyer and more integreated | 20:07 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: yes I read something like that myself hmm | 20:07 |
| Catalin_ | ok thx | 20:07 |
| oCean_ | Catalin_: quick hint: find /startdirectory -name "*.php" | xargs grep -i <string> | 20:07 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: 9.04 I had no issues with Ext4, even though that's a version where issues with Ext4 are more likely than with 9.10 | 20:07 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: you should be backing up data else where anyway, hard disks can just fail | 20:08 |
| oCean_ | Catalin_: that'll search every *.php file found for <string> | 20:08 |
| synx | During bootup of the liveCD, after loading the kernel the CD drive spins down and stops, and the booting process practically crawls to a halt. What was it that caused that again? I had this problem a few years back... | 20:08 |
| OttifantSir1 | Can someone help me get my mic working? When I try to set the preferences for webcam, speakers and mic in aMSN, it always gets stuck at the mic. It freezes. I have no problems recording sound with Sound Recorder. Could it be because I installed aMSN 0.98 from an autopackage, and the configs don't match? | 20:08 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: if your a bit worried though about losing data from the computer, well that's ok to do /home in Ext3, but you should still do / in Ext4 really | 20:08 |
| raul_ | jeansch thanks | 20:08 |
| doddo | Hello! the EDITOR and VISUAL variables seems to be ignored i keep getting nano as default editor, why is this? | 20:08 |
| synx | some sort of "make the CD drive more random access" mode that fails for cheap drives... | 20:08 |
| Catalin_ | ocean_: and how do I automaticly remove the <string> | 20:08 |
| jrib | doddo: default editor where? | 20:09 |
| doddo | jrib: everywhere | 20:09 |
| plustax | Hey guys. I'm trying to use GTK RECORDMYDESKTOP and I get the following error. Can anyone help? http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2066611/Screenshot.png | 20:09 |
| jrib | doddo: that shouldn't be the case, but try: update-alternatives --config editor (this is system wide) | 20:09 |
| LizardK|ng | sebsebseb, what advantage does ext4 have over 2? | 20:09 |
| === TuxPurple_ is now known as TuxPurple | ||
| oCean_ | Catalin_: like jrib told. You have to read up on the various commands and compose the complete command so that'll fit your needs | 20:09 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: / in 9.04 really does speed bot up, shut down, and automatic disk checking up, I did a test Ext3 and Ext4 in 9.10, didn't seem to make a difference, I have a feeling that it might make quite a difference though for 10.04 the next one. | 20:09 |
| apanda | why does xchat not have a nicklist by default? can i get one easily? :) | 20:10 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: well the automatic disk checking in 9.10 will be faster of course I expect, but I didn't test that. | 20:10 |
| LizardK|ng | sebsebseb, gparted just gave e an error that the kernel couldn;t reload the partition table | 20:10 |
| zmotok | hello, I know this isn't a particularly ubuntuish question but.. does anyone know of a printable image showing the most well known OSS software (name+logo or such) like ubuntu, openoffice, gimp, dia, staruml, etc? | 20:10 |
| doddo | jrib: hmm why do I need to do that one ? This one should work for example: EDITOR=vim sudo visudo | 20:10 |
| synx | doddo: have you checked /etc/alternatives/? update-alternatives --list editor should be of assistance. | 20:10 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: it's a blank hard disk yes? | 20:10 |
| === McPeter_ is now known as McPeter | ||
| jrib | doddo: erm, by "everywhere" did you mean "everywhere with sudo"? sudo is picky about environment variables :) | 20:11 |
| LizardK|ng | sebsebseb, now it is, yes :) | 20:11 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: ok you need to make a new partition table then | 20:11 |
| nonexks | how do i take xubuntu off of a computer | 20:11 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: the partitions have to go some where | 20:11 |
| doddo | jrib: nah not only sudo but also programs liek the editor CVS chooses per default | 20:11 |
| popey | plustax: looks like your sound settings to me | 20:11 |
| LizardK|ng | sebsebseb, it made / but didn;t format it so it's formatting now and will then create /home and swap | 20:12 |
| popey | plustax: what do you have on the sound tab in advanced settings? | 20:12 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: / in Ext4 ? Ext3 for /home ? | 20:12 |

| jrib | doddo: cvs should work, how are you calling it? | 20:13 |
| popey | plustax: switch off 'use jack' and change device to 'hw:0,0' | 20:13 |
| doddo | synx: =) Im not used o having to go through al these steps just to choose a default editor for my user... | 20:13 |
| neo_ | hy. | 20:14 |
| cdocbo | ok guys, back again trying to get my digital tablet working. (9.10 broke it, worked great in 9.04) Tablet is seen (dmesg), and can move the cursor in X, but cannot click anything. Followed a few guides without any success. | 20:14 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: another idea could be this, make an extra data partition, in Ext4, that you could then just use later on as a Ext4 /home and then you can re size that one after deleting the Ext3 or something. However it seems when it comes to data the file systems don't really matter that much, as long as you don't get data loss from them of course, and as long as you don't have really massive files. | 20:14 |
| popey | plustax: assuming you have only one sound device, if you have more than one - like a headset, we may need to change it to something else | 20:14 |
| doddo | jrib: cvs commit (i get the nano although both EDITOR and VISUAL is set to vim) | 20:14 |
| LizardK|ng | well, hard drive is cheap and plentiful, why not pick an amount you'll never actually need, but at the same time, never miss having either? | 20:14 |
| leoncismeck | I just hope I'm never really swapping that much is all | 20:14 |
| popey | plustax: interesting theme you have there by the way :) | 20:14 |
| synx | doddo: sorry to disappoint... /etc/alternatives is for the default editor for the computer. Not sure why visudo wouldn't use EDITOR... oh wait | 20:14 |
| synx | doddo: don't do "sudo visudo". Just visudo by itself. | 20:15 |
| LizardK|ng | sebsebseb, how big is really massive? i may end up with files of several GB | 20:15 |
| synx | sudo resets the environment, clearing EDITOR most likely. | 20:15 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: 100's of GB or more | 20:15 |
| plustax | popey looks good | 20:15 |
| plustax | now question | 20:15 |
| plustax | Will it record sound coming from my songbird? | 20:15 |
| plustax | I dont want it to record sound from my speakers. | 20:15 |
| LizardK|ng | sebsebseb, ok, not that big probably. gparted is done, so now i boot with the ubuntu cd and select manual install? | 20:15 |
| popey | plustax: i dont know, never do that | 20:15 |
| jrib | doddo: EDITOR=vim cvs commit does not use vim? | 20:15 |
| neo_ | available NOD32 LINUX beta with real time protection | 20:15 |
| popey | plustax: probably not | 20:16 |
| plustax | Well I have a question then. What can I use to put a song to a desktop video I record? | 20:16 |
| LizardK|ng | sebsebseb, i have installed linux before, back in the days before graphical installers and whatnot, so i should be ok with setting it up | 20:16 |
| doddo | jrib: not as expected :) | 20:16 |
| plustax | Something nice and easy to use | 20:16 |
| plustax | popey ^^ | 20:16 |
| popey | plustax: pitivi | 20:16 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: Ext4 is suppoused to be able to deal with much bigger files than Ext3 and better, but then that stuff about how a big file might get currupted on it hmm. Also people say that XFS has the proper advantages of Ext4, plus that's been around much longer. | 20:16 |
| LizardK|ng | sebsebseb, i never set up GRUB before, it was LILO back then :) | 20:17 |
| Hilikus | hey guys, for a FS with maximum data safety/robustness, forget about performance. is it better to use ext3 or ext4? or any other FS good for a backup partition? | 20:17 |
| jrib | doddo: don't know, I don't have any cvs repositories but at least with bzr it seems to work fine, EDITOR=nano bzr ci uses nano | 20:17 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: well I guess your not setting up Grub now either then, since 9.10 uses Grub 2, which is a complete rewrite of Grub, and according to some people not as good. | 20:17 |
| doddo | jrib: OK but does EDITOR=vim bzr ci use nano aswel ? | 20:17 |

| OttifantSir1 | Can someone help me get my mic working? When I try to set the preferences for webcam, speakers and mic in aMSN, it always gets stuck at the mic. It freezes.

| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: oh | 20:18 |
| cdocbo | yeah, grub2 is buggy atm. | 20:18 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: I thought it was 9.10 hmm | 20:18 |
| cdocbo | and doesn't work with raid (dmraid) either | 20:18 |
| Hilikus | cdocbo: what bugs specifically? | 20:18 |
| LizardK|ng | sebsebseb, i have 9.10 on a laptop and wish i could go back to 9.04 | 20:18 |
| cdocbo | ^^ | 20:18 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: ok good job Ext3 is done for the /home then | 20:18 |
| jrib | doddo: well my default EDITOR is vim, so I figured I would test with nano. To answer your question, yes: EDITOR=vim bzr ci uses vim | 20:18 |
| starcannon | nano is nice because it's so easy to use, no CS degree needed :) | 20:19 |
| jrib | doddo: do you have CVSEDITOR set? | 20:19 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: you will get some proper advantages of using Ext4 in 9.04 for /, oh and turning on the text boot up is :) however since the kernel and such in 9.04, it's not properly stable, but I never had issues. | 20:19 |

| zilla1 | hey, since when do you need to sign into launchpad to use the pastebin? | 20:30 |
| apanda | i probably do unless the open source one's give me more or the same fps ;) | 20:31 |
| sameepreturns | actionparsnip, thanks.....looking into it... | 20:31 |
| blackxored | anyone knows how to create a custom shorcut for my wm to activate window demanding attention? | 20:31 |
| sebsebseb | apanda: didn't really know there was open source driver for ATI or whatever, but yeah there's some sort of open source graphics card support, for Nivida and what not. ,but those aren't as good as the driver from the actsaul companys | 20:31 |
| ActionParsnip | sameepreturns: is it a laptop? | 20:32 |
| sebsebseb | apanda: If you want proper ATI card support, well you won't get it from an open source driver at this time. | 20:32 |
| apanda | the problem is that the company (ati) removes support for older cards from the current drivers.. | 20:32 |
| apanda | and the older drivers are incompatible with the current X | 20:33 |
| blackxored | please pv me I'm going out for a second | 20:33 |
| sebsebseb | apanda: I have read something like that before on IRC, and yes ATI suck basicalley | 20:33 |
| sebsebseb | apanda: Nivida are good | 20:33 |
| Toxic | Hi ! | 20:33 |
| === Toxic is now known as Guest52700 | ||
| sebsebseb | apanda: well each version of Ubuntu gets a differnet version of xorg | 20:33 |
| sebsebseb | apanda: so maybe the one in 9.04 wil work, or maybe the one in 8.10, but sadly that release will run out of support at the time 10.04 comes out, or around that time | 20:33 |
| `mOOse` | so just for future reference, what ARE good vid cards to look at when running ubuntu? | 20:34 |
| apanda | yeah i might get a new pc sometime soonish... its pretty old. but i actually had hoped that i can run stuff better than under my years old windows 2000 install ;) | 20:34 |
| sebsebseb | apanda: well 8.04 has a year or so of support left on the desktop, and yep it's a good release | 20:34 |
| apanda | ok i might try 8.04 then soonish if i cant get the fps i need in 9.10 :) | 20:34 |
| sebsebseb | apanda: longer than a year of support left, three years of support on the desktop | 20:35 |

| sebsebseb | apanda: oh I don't know what that is, some game? | 20:35 |

| Some_Person | Is there any way to use themes that use ubuntulooks on ubuntu? human-theme conflicts with the ubuntulooks package, so it can't be installed | 20:36 |
| ActionParsnip1 | yo yo yo | 20:36 |
| harovali1 | most people seem to dislike the pc speaker, and there are many tips to disable it. But I want it to work , and in 9.10 it doesn't work eveen if the module pcspkr is enabled. Why ? | 20:36 |
| sebsebseb | apanda: By the way newer is not always better, in certain ways 8.04 is actsualley better than 9.10. Also with Ubuntu it's about what releases are still supported, not what is the latest. | 20:36 |
| berrybarry | h00k? | 20:37 |
| ActionParsnip1 | sebsebseb: +1 | 20:37 |
| apanda | ok i didnt know that :) 9.10 is my first one ;) | 20:37 |
| berrybarry | looking for the x11vnc vnc-java configuration file | 20:38 |
| torax | has anybody had that Adobe Reader -freeze- prob with Karmic? | 20:38 |

| === Barbiegentooer_ is now known as Tina- | ||

| torax | ActionParsnip1: cool thnx | 20:41 |
| apanda | sebsebseb i'll probably try 8.04 because i have read that the 9600 driver works there and it's the current LTS version | 20:41 |
| sebsebseb | apanda: ok well here's a good tip when it comes to getting ISO's | 20:41 |
| mulkan | hi | 20:41 |
| `mOOse` | or uninstall it and install foxit ;-) | 20:42 |
| sebsebseb | apanda: use the torrent and it will probably be fine the download, get it from HTTP/FTP great idea to md5sum/sha1sum your ISO before burning the contents to CD, to make sure you have a good download | 20:42 |
| sebsebseb | apanda: or do both checks if you really want even | 20:42 |
| sebsebseb | apanda: most of the time they download fine, but not always | 20:42 |
| sebsebseb | !md5sum | apanda | 20:43 |
| ubottu | apanda: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 20:43 |
| apanda | usually it works ok with ftp clients from my experience, but thanks for the tipp, md5sum cant be bad :) | 20:43 |
| jcook_ | Anyone here use dansguardian? | 20:43 |
| Hillshum | sebsebseb: BitTorrent checks anyway right? | 20:43 |
| apanda | torrent autochecks everything it downloads | 20:43 |
| aboSamoor | I am using convert command to convert a jpeg to pdf, but the result quality is low even there is not decrease in the size ?! | 20:43 |
| apanda | torrent autochecks in small parts even :) | 20:44 |
| sebsebseb | Hillshum: As far as I know yeah, or it depends on client, well depending on client a download check can be run manualley. | 20:44 |
| apanda | seb thanks, i actually have an md5 (and sha1) shell extension installed in windows | 20:44 |
| sebsebseb | apanda: well they are much easier to check in a Linux distro | 20:44 |

| berrybarry | x11vnc vnc-java help anyone? | 20:45 |
| sebsebseb | apanda: open the terminal make sure your in the folder of the ISO if not CD in to it, then md5sum or sha1sum namegoeshere.iso get the code and compare it, so with 8.04 to the codes found in the list of files here http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04 | 20:45 |
| sebsebseb | apanda: the ISO is also in that list of files | 20:46 |
| apanda | yes ty.. my only problem with installing from an iso atm is that i'm running 9.10 from the wubi install because i couldnt repartition my harddrive because it's full ;) | 20:47 |
| === ersoy is now known as Ersoy | ||
| sebsebseb | apanda: oh right, well you can burn the CD using wubi as far as I know | 20:47 |
| shane_ | anyone ever try to install ubuntu on a Palm Treo 650? Or know if it can be done? | 20:48 |
| hikenboot | hello I have setup a host file with extensive sites to block. unfortunately karmic seems to be ignoring the hosts file...anyone know why | 20:48 |
| sebsebseb | apanda: assuming you also have a burner and a CD to burn on to of course | 20:48 |
| reign2 | what is the lightest antivirus? | 20:48 |
| sebsebseb | apanda: you could burn the ISO to a DVD, but that would be a waste of one really. In the long run it is better to use real partitions instead of Wubi. | 20:48 |
| ActionParsnip1 | !antivirus | reign2 | 20:48 |
| ubottu | reign2: Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux, except where files are then passed to windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus | 20:48 |
| reign2 | and by lightest I mean with the smallest memory/cpu footprint | 20:48 |
| ActionParsnip1 | reign2: clamav is small | 20:49 |
| Crash1hd | losha: So I figured out my trouble lol | 20:49 |
| apanda | yes i do, but that doesnt give me harddrive to partition :) it's one 100% ntfs partition with data to keep.. and i dont have a dvd writer (or even reader) in this pc :) | 20:49 |
| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip1: I was to slow, well messing the factoid up a bit or whatever | 20:49 |
| apanda | but thats for me to figure out how to backup xx gb without ;) | 20:49 |
| sebsebseb | reign2: you don't need anti virus in Desktop Linux at this time, unless for exaple you got an email server and so your scanning for Windows viruses | 20:49 |
| ActionParsnip1 | reign2: or you have a tinfoil hat collection | 20:49 |
| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip1: what? | 20:50 |
| reign2 | sebsebseb: I do alot of filesharing with my windows boxes | 20:50 |

| ActionParsnip1 | sebsebseb: its a synonym for super paranoia, kinda like installing antivirus on a system with no web access which will never have any extra software added to it, "just incase" | 20:53 |

| White_Pelican | aeon-ltd, which options under preferences or administration? I'm new to gnome | 20:57 |
| ActionParsnip1 | DaveS: you can create a folder with 2 symlinks to both folders | 20:57 |
| LizardK|ng | sebsebseb, the disc i thought was my 9.04 install was blank, and so i burned the iso on it, but it got an error, but i booted it anyway and it didn't work, so now i have to reburn it. I have so few CD-R's thinking that i'd never need them and could always use DVD-Rs | 20:57 |
| synx | the liveCD stops booting with sense errors mentioning sr0 and "Timeout on logical unit" | 20:57 |
| DaveS | action: but that would act like a sub-folder, right? | 20:58 |

| sebsebseb | !md5sum | LizardK|ng | 20:58 |

| synx | grub loads fine, but once the kernel is loaded it does something that causes the CD drive to spin down and stop responding. | 20:58 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: I just told someone else how to do that in Ubuntu | 20:58 |
| ActionParsnip1 | synx: did you md5 test the iso you downloaded? | 20:58 |
| ActionParsnip1 | synx: did you run the cd verifier? | 20:58 |
| LizardK|ng | well i reburned it and it didn;t get any errors | 20:58 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: check the ISO is a good download, before burning | 20:59 |
| synx | ActionParsnip1: uh, seeing as I got it from a trusted source no. I'll go check that really quick... | 20:59 |
| ActionParsnip1 | synx: doesnt matter if its "from a trusted source" | 20:59 |
| LimCore | can I tell os do by default create files with 660 instead 600 but for one directory (and it's subdirs)? | 20:59 |
| ActionParsnip1 | synx: the data can be garbaged in transit | 20:59 |
| LizardK|ng | sebsebseb, it is, i used it in 3 different computers; its the burn that was bad | 20:59 |
| ActionParsnip1 | synx: the source has nothing to do with it | 20:59 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: ok do a new burn then, burn a bit slower if your getting problems | 21:00 |
| synx | ActionParsnip1: bittorrent uses an info hash to verify that the data hasn't been corrupted. | 21:00 |
| ActionParsnip1 | synx: its still good practice to test it | 21:00 |
| LizardK|ng | sebsebseb, only options for speed were max and 48x so i did 48x this time | 21:00 |
| Dantonic | what's the apt-get command to completely wipe out an installed package? is it apt-get remove --purge <package> ? | 21:00 |
| synx | ActionParsnip1: yeah yeah, just lemme track down where that md5 is. | 21:00 |
| ActionParsnip1 | synx: you should also run the cd verifier so you know what you have is a good CD | 21:00 |
| LjL | Dantonic: yes, it's exactly that. | 21:00 |

| saik0 | Hi when trying to install grub on a mdraid1 i get an error see pastebin: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m430fa907 | 21:02 |
| synx | does this "cd verifier" just basically go {dd if=/dev/sr0 | md5sum -}? | 21:02 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: check that the ISO is good! | 21:02 |
| ActionParsnip1 | LizardK|ng: burn slow, all burning software has speed settings, the default is max | 21:02 |
| achandra | hello...having a few issues wit getting irw to work right in 9.10 any ideas...irw returns a no such file or directory | 21:02 |

| sebsebseb | synx: Good! | 21:03 |
| ActionParsnip1 | synx: cool, now boot to the CD and on the very first screen run the cd verifier | 21:03 |
| synx | now I just need to figure out how to check the CD. I guess cmp .iso /dev/sr0 would do the trick. | 21:03 |
| saik0 | Anybody use mdraid as a bootable root with Karmic that can assist? | 21:03 |
| chazroberts | i cant seem to run exe files? | 21:04 |

| chazroberts | im not sure | 21:05 |
| michLinuxGuy | dottedquad: JOSM works pretty good for maps. Since it's opensource, I think you could add the logic to read GPS coordinates fairly easy. (if you can code) | 21:05 |
| ActionParsnip1 | synx: then you know the burner has not faultered or jittered and screwed the burn | 21:05 |
| LizardK|ng | sebsebseb, so i do md5sum ubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso and compare it to what's on the website? | 21:05 |
| Redache | chazroberts: what is swg setup? | 21:05 |
| dottedquad | michLinuxGuy: Thank YOU | 21:05 |
| chazroberts | star wars galaxies | 21:05 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: yes as long as you have the ISO saved in home | 21:05 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: otherwise you can cd into the folder, or copy/cut it into home and do it | 21:06 |
| synx | ActionParsnip1: I can also just {cmp .iso /dev/sr0} and if it fails only on EOF on the .iso then it's good. | 21:06 |
| LinuxCommunity | DaveS: you can run exes in ubuntu , i have they were exe's programmed in c with gtk+, so it was a linux made program | 21:06 |
| LizardK|ng | sebsebseb, does md5sum /dev/cdrom | 21:06 |
| Redache | chazroberts: You'd need Wine, but I'm not sure Galaxies works on Linux | 21:06 |
| LizardK|ng | work? | 21:06 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: then the code you want is in these lists of files http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.04 | 21:06 |
| DaveS | Linux: .exe is just a file extension, that's why I asked if it was a linux binary | 21:06 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: don't think so | 21:06 |
| sebsebseb | LizardK|ng: it's for checking an ISO just like sha1sum is | 21:06 |

| Obamacide | <trijntje> how much minimum hd space would you give? Also need I worry about grub2 if this is a fresh install of 9.10???? | 22:02 |
| losha | ubuntic1: knoppic -> knoppix | 22:02 |
| mike_______ | anyone got a solution for very slow usb write speed after some time? like, it's fast until 25% and then it starts getting horribly slow. mount -o async,remount doesn't work for that device. -o flush didn't help | 22:03 |
| trijntje | Obamacide, 30GB is more than enough, 10 GB should be fine too. Whats wrong with grub2? | 22:03 |
| joshuajtl | i need some assistance folks, my touchpad is always haywire on ubuntu... im running karmic, with an alps touchpad using (i think) synaptics module... it's often difficult to use my touchpad it sticks, and is otherwise just crazy to use... occasionally there is suddenly two vertical scroll areas, one right smack in the middle of the pad, and one on the right edge where its supposed to be... | 22:03 |
| ubuntic1 | losha: right, but i have only ubuntu right now? I wont | 22:03 |
| alankila | mike_______: it's probably actually writing the data when it gets slow | 22:04 |
| Slart | mike_______: I' had those problems too.. haven't really seen it happen lately though | 22:04 |
| babytom | hey guys, does anyone know why none of my startup programs are running? | 22:04 |
| Obamacide | trijntje, tried installing a 9.04 derivative on a second partition with 9.10 on the first and I cant get it to boot...and menu.lst is gone...so unfamiliarity is my main problem..... | 22:04 |
| alankila | mike_______: the kernel buffers data for some time so you can copy, say, 200 MB in a few seconds and then wait a minute for it to actually go into the thing. | 22:04 |
| Slart | mike_______: I used to try moving say.. a 600 MB iso file and after 300MB or so it just kind of stalled and never finished | 22:04 |
| ubuntic1 | losha: to know if burning is possible under a livesystem? | 22:04 |
| babytom | Its a clean install of netbook remix | 22:04 |
| kacm88 | Hello everyone, I'm going to upgrade from Hardy to Intrepid, do I need to create a backup or will I have all my data after the upgrade? | 22:04 |
| losha | ubuntic1: then I think you have to install to hard drive from the live cd, *then* you can boot from disk and burn to cd/dvd | 22:05 |
| mike_______ | alankila: it takes way less time to copy the same data to the same device on windows | 22:05 |
| Slart | kacm88: always create a backup.. things can go wrong | 22:05 |
| deever | is there a solution to this grub2 "error: biosdisk read error" error on karmic with a raid/lvm? | 22:05 |
| alankila | mike_______: ok. Maybe something is actually wrong with it, then. | 22:05 |
| Obamacide | <kacm88> the short answer is ALWAYS BACKUP....regardless | 22:05 |
| kacm88 | thought so, thank you so much! | 22:05 |
| ango | well i have installed the flash plugin, but i got some bored trouble with firefox, some webpages just open fast, some don't open at all, sry my bad grammar | 22:05 |
| trijntje | Obamacide, /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 22:05 |
| newclimb | ango: pvt please | 22:06 |
| Obamacide | <trijntje> you mean edit the grub.cfg (My problem is that I dont know what to put in there)....the 9.04 derivative starts to boot then I get this warning about something having been possibly renames etc. | 22:06 |
| losha | ubuntic1: If you have *two* cd-roms, you can burn from the live-cd on the unused one. But not with just one. But as long as you have a blank to spare, why not try it? | 22:06 |

| dmichael | I have a quick question for you guys. I have a large list of files that all need to be removed. What is the best way to use the list to delete the files? | 22:07 |
| ubuntic1 | losha: ohh, i know, but i hope this is my last choise | 22:07 |
| trijntje | Marsupial, could be ext3 ext4 related | 22:08 |
| Slart | dmichael: pipe it to rm | 22:08 |
| Marsupial | losha Friend got a dell mini10v for her 15 year old son...who likes to tinker with stuff...but a linux newbie. It comes with Windows SP3 but I want to install Ubuntu alongside XP. Which Ubuntu would you recommend and why? Wubi or dual boot? Easypeasy or stock 9.04, 9.10 UNR, or regular 9.10 desktop??? Also how much minimum GB of hd space would you give? | 22:08 |
| CShadowRun | Marsupial: 9.10 UNR dual boot, Wubi is prone to corrupted drive images in my experience, a minimum of 5GB drive is recommended | 22:09 |
| Pipi772 | Hello!, i made a test file, a bash file, is ther another way to execute it than sh test ?? | 22:09 |
| babytom | hey guys, does anyone know why none of my startup programs are running? | 22:09 |
| Slart | dmichael: here's some info http://unix.derkeiler.com/Newsgroups/comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc/2006-03/msg00438.html | 22:09 |
| babytom | its a clean instal of UNR | 22:09 |
| Marsupial | <trijntje> both partitions are ext4 | 22:09 |
| Slart | Pipi772: set it to "executable" and run ./yourfile.sh | 22:09 |
| trijntje | Marsupial, CShadowRun UNR could be to heavy on a mini notebook | 22:10 |
| CShadowRun | trijntje: ...what? It's designed for it | 22:10 |
| trijntje | Marsupial, in that case i dont know | 22:10 |
| forceflow | are there any optimized kernels for Atom processors? | 22:10 |
| CShadowRun | trijntje: also you saying UNR is heavier than WINXP? lol | 22:10 |
| dmichael | i added rm /pathtofiles/ in the file and made it executable i was just wondering if there is a better way. do I need rm infront of every line? | 22:11 |
| trijntje | CShadowRun, yeah, I am | 22:11 |
| CShadowRun | >.< | 22:11 |
| EsatYuce | who konw about GPG key ? | 22:11 |
| Hilikus | CShadowRun: did youset the shebang? | 22:11 |
| blakkheim | forceflow: gentoo | 22:11 |
| trijntje | CShadowRun, the UNR interface is heavy on the graphics, makes the whole thing slow when your video card is not up to it | 22:11 |
| trijntje | UNR also needs more RAM then normal ubuntu | 22:12 |
| CShadowRun | trijntje: the dell netbooks are designed to run unr... | 22:12 |
| CShadowRun | and unr was designed to run on the dell netbooks | 22:12 |
| EsatYuce | Who knows about GPG key? | 22:12 |
| joaopinto | isn't UNR expected to use less ram since it has a simpler interface and the target are less capable netbooks ? | 22:12 |
| trijntje | CShadowRun, I dont know that, just sharing my UNR/netboox experience ;) | 22:12 |
| trijntje | joaopinto, UNR needs 512 RAM ;) | 22:14 |
| Slart | EsatYuce: what about it? is there a real question coming after this? | 22:14 |
| EsatYuce | Slart, : yes it is about Launchpad key | 22:14 |
| joaopinto | trijntje, so does Ubuntu, that doesn't invalidate my points, I don't see any tecnhical reason for UNR to use more RAM than a regular Ubuntu desktop | 22:15 |
| trijntje | joaopinto, minimum requirement for normal ubuntu is 256. But its the graphics thats heavy on UNR | 22:15 |
| Slart | EsatYuce: if you have a question just ask it.. no need to find a specific person before you ask | 22:16 |
| losha | Marsupial: Tricky. There's at least one report of trouble getting a similar machine running: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1356613. Expect wireless problems and maybe more. Looks like 9.10 might be your best bet. Someone mentioned 'moblin'. Do some googling around as I did for your specific hardware.... | 22:16 |

| lolo88 | is there a way to in stall back track in linux | 22:47 |
| DasEi1 | c1h23r456i78910: which is the external ? | 22:47 |
| forceflow | lolo88: backtrack is a linux distro | 22:48 |
| cr0bar | I then used disk utility in ubuntu to delete that and try creating two extended ones, for messing with other distros | 22:48 |
| bllz | cr0bar: it's possible, but any time you have extended partitioning you're going to end up with that | 22:48 |
| VCoolio | cistle: if any then in /etc/X11 | 22:48 |
| bllz | so don't worry about it | 22:48 |

| linxeh | MajorPayne: it should mount it somewhere, in /media maybe? | 23:23 |
| linxeh | MajorPayne: try typing mount at the terminal - it should list all the mounted filesystems / servers | 23:23 |
| zilla1 | LaConfusedGuy: so i have this 00:14.6 Modem: ATI Technologies Inc SB400 AC'97 Modem Controller (rev 02), but i want something to put in the blacklist (something like snd-atiixp-modem) | 23:23 |
| MajorPayne | Lingerance, I already checked under both /media and /mnt. No luck :-| | 23:23 |
| linxeh | MajorPayne: try typing mount then | 23:24 |
| MajorPayne | I could download it, I was just hoping to keep all the files on the other computer. | 23:24 |
| DasEi1 | ntemis: is there a reason for the backports repo ? | 23:24 |
| MajorPayne | Lingerance, I already connected to the server via the Connect to server dialog. | 23:24 |
| ntemis | ATH5K | 23:24 |

| LaConfusedGuy | no errors | 23:25 |
| ntemis | now works ok | 23:25 |
| MajorPayne | I might just set up NFS. It's on my home network, I'm not too worried about security. I was just hoping I could get it to work via ssh. Would be a lot easier to set up. | 23:25 |
| ntemis | ok | 23:25 |
| poisonborz | ...can anyone help me? I'm stuck with installing Ubuntu 9.10 on a A7N8X mobo.. Installer doesn't see my sata hdd (livecd os does). old mobo, separate sil 3112a controller, so no bios sata options | 23:25 |

| LizardK|ng | DasEi1, it's a different computer than i'm chatting on | 23:26 |

| ntemis | <scottandmonique>yeah u noob using backports fucking noob | 23:27 |
| ntemis | <ntemis>hey watch your language | 23:27 |
| DasEi1 | LizardK|ng: k, can you boot a live cd on that and come back in ? | 23:27 |

| LaConfusedGuy | and menus, several unique configuration tools, and regular scanned localhost | 23:27 |

| MajorPayne | linxeh, sftp. | 23:31 |

| ntemis | DasEi1: when i run vlc from terminal i get Segmentation fault | 23:31 |
| LaConfusedGuy | after that doesnt make sense | 23:31 |
| linxeh | MajorPayne: you could mount it via the command line, automount, or fstab then I guess | 23:31 |
| LaConfusedGuy | dressed the fault has occurred | 23:31 |
| KitsuneDragon | hi | 23:31 |
| MajorPayne | linxeh, I didn't think that worked over ssh. | 23:31 |
| Frogging101 | When I boot my computer with LTSP, when I log in it goes back to the login screen. I get errors in the syslog. Those errors are here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/343699/ | 23:31 |
| LaConfusedGuy | ssh is super slow to connect | 23:31 |
| MajorPayne | linxeh, it it does, that would be ideal. | 23:31 |
| vinpan | im getting real GRRRRR .....b/c i installed ubuntu on a older computer and it worked and now im trying to put it on a newer computer than the other and it wont install b/c of the damn keyboard......anyone please | 23:32 |
| ankit_babbar | Hi Dasie | 23:32 |
| LaConfusedGuy | hi ankit_babbar | 23:32 |
| linxeh | vinpan: it means that whatever it said before that isnt supported in every bit of parted | 23:32 |
| ankit_babbar | hi La Confused guy | 23:32 |
| LaConfusedGuy | is supported looks like they aptana has an eclipse plugin | 23:32 |
| ikonia | LaConfusedGuy: this channel is for ubuntu support - can you please limit the conversation to that | 23:32 |
| vs93taras | so is anyone knowledgeable about monitor recognition issues? | 23:32 |
| Crash1hd | losha: So I figured out my trouble lol | 23:32 |

| FloodBot4 | LaConfusedGuy: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 23:32 |
| vinpan | so i cant install it on this computer then that i have to try other linux right | 23:32 |
| ikonia | LaConfusedGuy: ubuntu suport only please | 23:32 |
| DasEi1 | LizardK|ng: that'll be to hard to pull the info from/ to another machine, either you study it yourself then or we can have a look together, that's little hairy this way | 23:32 |
| LimCore | ikonia: g+s does not work. perhaps sshfs and/or umask setting will work | 23:32 |
| LaConfusedGuy | an ide project comes together | 23:32 |
| graelb | okay! update, my keyboard input goes to the terminal | 23:33 |
| graelb | in wine | 23:33 |
| Frogging101 | When I boot my computer with LTSP, when I log in it goes back to the login screen. I get errors in the syslog. Those errors are here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/343699/ | 23:33 |
| ikonia | LimCore: interesting - umask is something very different, did the files not get owned by the same person as the directory owner ? | 23:33 |
| Phil___ | Hi all, I have tried both xubuntu and ubuntu on my server, but neither seems to be able to support my monitor for > 640x400 resolution. I know it is a higher-res monitor though. Am I missing a driver or what? | 23:33 |
| graelb | recap: Full screen WINE KOTOR2, keyboard input doesn't work for the game, just goes straight to the terminal which it was ran in | 23:33 |
| deever | is there a solution to this grub2 "error: biosdisk read error" error on karmic with a raid/lvm? | 23:33 |
| Frogging101 | g2g, if you have an answer reply to my thread here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1350832 | 23:33 |
| vinpan | so that means it wont install on that computer right? | 23:33 |
| rjb1 | hi i installed karmic with an old home partition but i can't get all my users what can i do? | 23:33 |
| ankit_babbar | We are group of student of college and have been working on ubuntu since past year, we wish to setup a Private mirror can any one help | 23:33 |
| LizardK|ng | DasEi1, so you don't want to help me unless you can see my fstab? if you saw it and thought it looked fine, what would you suggest i try next to repair grub? | 23:34 |
| DasEi1 | !mirror | ankit_babbar | 23:34 |
| ubottu | ankit_babbar: Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mirrors - PLEASE use the !torrents to download !Karmic, and help keeping the servers' load low! | 23:34 |
| ikonia | ankit_babbar: apt-mirror is all you need | 23:34 |
| jpds | ankit_babbar: See the wiki page linked. | 23:34 |
| jpds | ikonia: No. | 23:34 |
| maco | ankit_babbar: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mirrors | 23:34 |
| maco | ankit_babbar: how to become a mirror is documented there | 23:34 |
| Gentoon | I thought that Netbook Remix was supposed to come with skype? | 23:34 |
| graelb | Anybody? | 23:34 |
| ikonia | jpds: oh ? | 23:34 |
| linxeh | vinpan: no, it doesnt mean that at all | 23:34 |
| Gentoon | I can't find it anywhere | 23:34 |
| jpds | ikonia: rsync is preferred, always. | 23:35 |
| Gentoon | And it is not in the repositories | 23:35 |
| ankit_babbar | but will it be able to handle all versions 8.04 onwards | 23:35 |
| ankit_babbar | apt-mirror | 23:35 |
| jpds | ankit_babbar: rsync should be fine. | 23:35 |
| linxeh | ikonia: you might need to use fdisk rather than parted, thats all. and its likely all distros will hvae the same issue anyway | 23:35 |
| vs93taras | anybody get my issue? | 23:35 |
| jpds | ankit_babbar: See that page and the /Scripts page too. | 23:35 |
| theman | if I had drive sda and sdb mounted as a raid device, would this affect drive sdc's name? | 23:35 |
| ikonia | jpds: yup, don't see a problem with rsync over apt-mirror, no problem with that | 23:35 |
| theman | would it be remapped? | 23:35 |
| ikonia | linxeh: I've not got a problem with disks | 23:35 |
| Gentoon | Can anyone link me to a page that tells me how to add the other repositories? Like non free? | 23:35 |
| erUSUL | theman: do not think so | 23:35 |
| erUSUL | !repositories | 23:36 |
| linxeh | ikonia: sorry, that was meant to be vinpan | 23:36 |
| ubottu | The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories | 23:36 |
| mun | hi | 23:36 |
| mun | i'm using wine to stream some video, but the server's domain is resolved to be 127.12.34.56 i've hostname -i gives me 192.168.1.64 already. does anyone know why? | 23:36 |
| linxeh | ikonia: I didnt press v hard enough :p | 23:36 |
| ankit_babbar | but need to know whats better rsync or apt-mirror | 23:36 |
| MajorPayne | linxeh, Thanks for the help. I should have though of mount myself. I will look into either sshfs or NFS later. This will do for now. Bye. | 23:36 |
| ikonia | linxeh: don't worry | 23:36 |
| rjb1 | i have an home partition and installed karmic, how can i recover all my users? | 23:37 |
| jpds | ankit_babbar: https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~ubumirror-devs/ubumirror/trunk | 23:37 |
| ikonia | ankit_babbar: jpds seems pretty convinced over rsync, so that seems solid advice | 23:37 |
| linxeh | MajorPayne: ok good luck - sshfs will work quite easily for you :) | 23:37 |
| theman | erUSUL: I can't seem to figure this out though: I'm trying to install from an image located in sdc1 to the raid device on md0 (from the other two drives). The installation starts up fine, but once the drives are mounted, the installation program seems to be no longer able to read from the image and therefore cannont continue with package installation? | 23:37 |
| === |_ocke is now known as brebnebrebnebre | ||
| jpds | ankit_babbar: Just pick a local rsync mirror from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archivemirrors and sync away. | 23:38 |
| erUSUL | theman: ... never tried such a thing. dunno maybe the image get umounted for some reason? | 23:38 |
| theman | erUSUL: I don't think the image ever is mounted... as naive as it may sound, I think it's being used "directly" | 23:39 |

| thodoris | from xchat | 23:39 |
| thodoris | lalala | 23:39 |
| ikonia | it worked | 23:39 |
| erUSUL | theman: so how are you booting into it? or using it to install ? | 23:39 |
| LizardK|ng | should grub be installed on the first hard drive, or is that not necessary? which partition should be marked active? | 23:40 |

| jiggaboojonez | hi everyone.. can GRUB be installed without having to install a distro? | 23:40 |
| thodoris | yes | 23:40 |
| ikonia | linxeh: boot sector of what ever drive you boot from | 23:40 |
| thebishop | transfers to my USB thumb drive start fast and then chug to the point where a 700MB file takes 20-30 minutes to copy. anyone else have this problem? | 23:40 |
| erUSUL | LizardK|ng: it should be installed in the hd that its set to boot in the bios (hd0) for grub | 23:40 |
| DasEi1 | LizardK|ng: dualbooting ? | 23:40 |
| ankit_babbar | Rsync will be d best option? you all feel ... | 23:40 |
| ikonia | jiggaboojonez: why would you want grub without an OS ? | 23:40 |
| linxeh | ikonia: ;-) | 23:40 |
| Gentoon | is there anything like easy ubuntu anymore? | 23:41 |
| jiggaboojonez | ikonia: i want grub to boot just xp. | 23:41 |
| ManBearPig | any ideas? | 23:41 |
| ikonia | linxeh: honestly.....sorry, typo | 23:41 |
| jrib | Gentoon: ubuntu is easy... | 23:41 |
| Gentoon | I just wanna add the repository that has skype... | 23:41 |
| Woshin_ | so, I know this isn't the right place for this but I'm building a computer and there's an ?AAFP" pin connection on my motherboard that looks like it fits both HD Audtio and AC97. Does it really support both? | 23:41 |
| ikonia | jiggaboojonez: that makes no sense, as grub will load ntldr, if you have no other OS on the machine installing grub is pointless | 23:41 |
| LizardK|ng | DasEi1, yes, i have a windows install on sda1 and ubuntu on sdc1 | 23:41 |
| Gentoon | I just want skype lol | 23:41 |
| jrib | !skype | Gentoon | 23:41 |
| ubottu | Gentoon: To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto - Please use open protocols instead if you can, see !Ekiga | 23:41 |
| jiggaboojonez | there is no possible way of resoring mbr which buntu grub has taken over. | 23:41 |
| jiggaboojonez | on this netbooks | 23:41 |
| jiggaboojonez | no tools here | 23:42 |
| DasEi1 | LizardK|ng: so grub should be in the mbr of your boot hd | 23:42 |
| linxeh | ikonia: sok :D | 23:42 |
| graelb | Hello, i'm having some issues with wine and a game(KOTOR2)... My keyboard input is going to the terminal when the game is running in full screen | 23:42 |
| Scunizi | What's the channel for ubuntu one? #ubuntuone #ubuntu-one #oneubuntu ?? | 23:42 |
| theman | erUSUL: I specify something like install=hd:////image_name.iso using the net-install cd | 23:42 |
| linxeh | is there an sftp client that can do recursive upload and download ? (command line client) | 23:42 |
| LizardK|ng | DasEi1, and which one is the boot hd? | 23:42 |
| jiggaboojonez | ikonia: i want a bootloader to be able to boot. i tried restoring but grub digged too deep. even reformating everything didn't work | 23:43 |
| joejc | hello? | 23:43 |
| linxeh | hello | 23:43 |
| jiggaboojonez | hi joejc | 23:43 |
| warlord974 | yo | 23:43 |
| rjb1 | i have an home partition and installed karmic, how can i recover all my users? | 23:43 |
| ikonia | jiggaboojonez: grub needs a file system to store the grub config info on - so you need "something" | 23:43 |
| ikonia | jiggaboojonez: I suggest trying to get your netbook OS install disk | 23:43 |
| linxeh | rjb1: useradd, and set the home directories and user ids appropriately | 23:44 |
| ikonia | rjb1: define recover users, frmo what ? | 23:44 |
| ikonia | from what ? | 23:44 |
| DasEi1 | LizardK|ng: the one you set bios to boot from | 23:44 |
| ardnew_ | I'm trying to recover my root password on a fresh ubuntu install because I screwed up sudo and never set a root password | 23:44 |
| jiggaboojonez | any i have my netbook disk the thing is ikonia... i don't have a ext. cd drive | 23:44 |
| erUSUL | !root | 23:44 |
| linxeh | ardnew_: ubuntu doesnt have a root password | 23:44 |
| ubottu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 23:44 |
| ardnew_ | I cant get to the grub console because it times out too quickly | 23:44 |
| LimCore | Gentoon: sometimes skype fails to work on ubuntus; also on linuxes overall. sfx card problems usually | 23:44 |
| ikonia | ardnew_:what's the problem with sudo | 23:44 |
| DasEi1 | !root| ardnew_: | 23:44 |
| ubottu | ardnew_:: please see above | 23:44 |
| LizardK|ng | DasEi1, ok, thats sdc (no numbered partition, right?) | 23:44 |
| rjb1 | ikonia: when i try to create my old user it says home directory already exist so what can i do? | 23:45 |
| linxeh | ardnew_: did you damage /etc/sudoers ? | 23:45 |

| graelb | Hello, i'm having some issues with wine and a game(KOTOR2)... My keyboard input is going to the terminal when the game is running in full screen, but goes to the game if it's in a virtual window... any ideas? | 23:48 |
| DasEi1 | LizardK|ng: that bootloader is still in order ? | 23:48 |

| matts45acp | window-friends list | 23:48 |
| DasEi1 | LizardK|ng: that gets hairy, as I said boot a live cd so we can easily pull needed info | 23:48 |
| ardnew_ | ikonia: because I dont have an install disk, I installed from the network | 23:48 |
| ikonia | ardnew_: no, when you boot your machine you should get a grub menu that offers ubuntu/recovery mode/memtest | 23:48 |
| LizardK|ng | DasEi1, i got a live cd booted | 23:49 |
| DasEi1 | now and here in, LizardK|ng ? | 23:49 |

| ardnew_ | and it just begins booting before I can choose what I want to boot | 23:49 |
| LizardK|ng | DasEi1, do you want me on irc on that system? | 23:49 |
| ikonia | ardnew_: ah, you'll need a CD then | 23:49 |

| ardnew_ | ikonia: for a fresh install, you should be able to access your bootloader's options before the system boots | 23:57 |
| ikonia | ardnew_: not really | 23:57 |
| ardnew_ | "ok" | 23:57 |
| linxeh | ardnew_: if you run the netboot install again, you can get a shell with your existing system mounted | 23:57 |
| ardnew_ | to run the netboot install again, I have to access the grub console | 23:58 |
| ardnew_ | or edit my grub config | 23:58 |
