| NeT_DeMoN | h00k, I understand | 00:02 |
| Scunizi | ActionParsnip: ach! k.. can't remember who mentioned weechat a while back.. looks as good or better than irssi with some additional features.. BUT I have to compile the latest version for Intrepid | 00:03 |
| aliendude5300 | and there will be no compatibility problems between 32-bit and 64-bit? | 00:03 |
| ActionParsnip | samira-t: its a plugin, or i named 2 apps earlier | 00:03 |
| louiethecuban | I have a question. I would like to help out with developing ubuntu studio, but I don't know where to start. Anyone have suggestions? | 00:03 |
| ActionParsnip | Scunizi: probably Dr_Willis | 00:03 |
| ActionParsnip | Scunizi: no ppa around? | 00:03 |
| blakkheim | Scunizi: what does weechat do better than irssi in your opinion? | 00:03 |

| iceroot | aliendude5300: its just the binary which is compiled which have a difference | 00:05 |

| ActionParsnip | Scunizi: does the ppa give you wee-chat ? | 00:06 |
| aliendude5300 | iceroot, so all features of mysql are ported to the 64-bit version? | 00:06 |
| iceroot | aliendude5300: yes | 00:06 |
| Scunizi | ActionParsnip: havent looked.. I thought I might throw my .deb for intrepid up there. | 00:06 |
| iceroot | aliendude5300: 64bit just means bigger registers (bigger int) no features are missing | 00:06 |

| samira-t | ActionParsnip: i cant use it | 00:07 |
| h00k | Blehk: I know you can do it here on the server: /etc/ssh/sshd_config | 00:08 |
| Blehk | Scunizi: the issue is actually that the user I have to login had the default shell changed, and that shell doesn't exist | 00:08 |
| rww | Blehk: ssh user@server commandname | 00:08 |
| Blehk | So I get booted before I can connect | 00:08 |
| iceroot | Blehk: no, the shell from /etc/passwd from the server will be used, after the login you can call zsh or what you like | 00:08 |
| ActionParsnip | samira-t: seems okular can do it but its kde based | 00:08 |
| Blehk | iceroot: That's exactly the problem iceroot, the shell claimed there must not exist. | 00:09 |
| iceroot | Blehk: correct, something like /bin/false | 00:09 |

| samira-t | ActionParsnip: ok :( | 00:11 |
| louiethecuban | is there any reason why flash is so buggy for ubuntu? | 00:11 |
| h00k | louiethecuban: because Adobe won't fix it :( | 00:11 |
| louiethecuban | <hook> well they better | 00:12 |
| rww | louiethecuban: because Adobe doesn't care enough to make a decent version, and it's closed-source so we can't just fix it ourselves. | 00:12 |

| LordHawke13 | Hey guys, I gotta question. | 00:15 |
| LordHawke13 | My computer won't boot to USB. | 00:15 |
| h00k | shipmaster: perhaps look at gnucash | 00:15 |
| louiethecuban | did you look through the software center shipmaster | 00:15 |
| h00k | LordHawke13: it might not be supported by your BIOS | 00:15 |
| LordHawke13 | Is there a way I can have GRUB chainload USB? | 00:15 |
| damian | LordHawke13, I have a laptop that doesn't support it :( | 00:15 |
| shipmaster | tried that but it doesnt keep track of inventory | 00:15 |
| NeT_DeMoN | h00k, alright, ever since I got my Toshiba laptops two years ago and they had Atheros which wasn't supported for awhile I haven't liked Atheros based devices... | 00:15 |
| h00k | NeT_DeMoN: yeah, his (My Dad's) other adapter broke and I grabbed this figuring it'd work for sure. | 00:16 |
| hal_ | I was luck my Toshiba worked right from the start | 00:16 |
| h00k | NeT_DeMoN: apparently I was mistaken. | 00:16 |
| LordHawke13 | h00k, damian, NeT_DeMoN, Though it may not be supported from the BIOS menu, is there a way I can have the GRUB menu chainload a bootable USB device? | 00:16 |
| NeT_DeMoN | h00k, I see | 00:16 |
| shipmaster | yeah I looked through the software center and couldn't find anything suitable | 00:17 |
| tos_ | what is the command in IPTABLES to block outgoing connection to a certain ip on port 80?? | 00:17 |
| h00k | shipmaster: have you looked at gnucash? | 00:17 |
| shipmaster | I tried using a windows app that I have been using wine but it wouldn't work either | 00:18 |
| shipmaster | I also tried VM to no avail | 00:18 |
| damian | LordHawke13, look at : http://www.pendrivelinux.com/use-a-floppy-to-boot-usb-pendrive-linux/ second half of the page ;) i.e. once you have grub installed on the hdd | 00:19 |
| shipmaster | gnucash doesn't track inventory | 00:20 |
| LordHawke13 | Ahah!! So GRUB recognizes USB drives as IDE HDDs. . . | 00:20 |
| Scott1979 | doesnt quick books run under wine | 00:20 |

| whoever | frozenskunk: watch it... if you use 'force create mode' on a share it will chage permissions | 00:48 |
| APERSON | Guest88887, have you tried sudo apt-get build-dep aircrack-ng ? | 00:49 |
| frozenskunk | whoever: is that in the .conf, or a setting elsewhere? | 00:49 |
| Guest88887 | I did | 00:50 |
| Guest88887 | it says No such file or directory | 00:50 |
| Guest88887 | I'm open to the universe and multiverse | 00:50 |

| ctmjr | Guest88887: then you are doing something wrong it is there | 00:51 |
| whoever | frozenskunk: .. comment line 298 altough itis only aprinter | 00:51 |
| MetalNate | APERSON: the sliders are at the top starting in places and ending on the nvidia symbol then over by the clock | 00:52 |
| Guest88887 | I just changed the server | 00:52 |
| Guest88887 | maybe that will work | 00:52 |
| ctmjr | Guest88887: you need to run an update first | 00:53 |
| whoever | frozenskunk: that ment that only the owner could see it, don't know why that would only effect one and not both | 00:53 |
| Guest88887 | It's taking the server a while to load | 00:53 |
| Guest88887 | If you want to see my source list I'd be glad to show | 00:54 |
| whoever | frozenskunk: its in the .conf you posted | 00:54 |
| MetalNate | I think it has something to do with the nvidia driver, just a hunch, i want to revert to my old Ubuntu install | 00:54 |
| Barnabas | MetalNate, just revert to the old driver version if that is the problem | 00:54 |
| eliot_ | how do i set google chrome as my default web browser in xubuntu | 00:55 |
| MetalNate | Barnabas: I dont know how to do that | 00:55 |
| frozenskunk | whoever: That would be strange, because there is a printer shared off that computer also and it has never had the first issue, shows up when you try to print without even adding it... | 00:55 |
| Barnabas | MetalNate, what is your current version of the driver | 00:55 |
| APERSON | MetalNate, restricted drivers manager | 00:55 |
| Barnabas | yes restricted drivers manager | 00:55 |
| Barnabas | will do the trick | 00:55 |
| Barnabas | select the early version | 00:56 |
| MetalNate | Where is that located | 00:56 |
| whoever | frozenskunk: thats all i see shared in the file you posted | 00:56 |
| MetalNate | But would that explain those progress sliders? The driver may fix the pink purple ascii screen | 00:56 |
| whoever | frozenskunk: i don't see the file your sharing | 00:57 |
| frozenskunk | whoever: ok, I got my lines crossed now, which did you mean is in the .conf the forced create mode or the printer line that needs edited? | 00:57 |
| Barnabas | MetalNate, system->Administration->Hardware drivers | 00:57 |
| teage | sup ppl | 00:57 |
| MetalNate | Barnabas: Im in that | 00:57 |
| teage | how do i get rid of my clock | 00:57 |
| teage | i want to remove it from the panel | 00:57 |
| MetalNate | Barnabas: the only option is remove | 00:57 |
| APERSON | teage, right click on it and hit remove | 00:58 |
| j3rg | hey wats up everyone | 00:58 |
| j3rg | ? | 00:58 |
| teage | i did that | 00:58 |
| teage | doesnt give me the option | 00:58 |
| frozenskunk | whoever: I'm not sharing an individual file, it's a folder that is shared from her Desktop | 00:58 |
| APERSON | j3rg, did you unlock it first? | 00:58 |
| whoever | they both are there, but you said your sharing a file. N don't see the fileshare | 00:58 |
| j3rg | kinda of a silly question ....but i wanna know Windows 7 should be able to read FAT32 and not just only NTFS right | 00:58 |
| vick | Hello. I'm looking for an editor that has synonyms for specific words or so ? | 00:58 |
| j3rg | ? | 00:58 |
| teage | i dont like the military style format | 00:58 |
| whoever | frozenskunk: well foldr | 00:59 |
| MetalNate | Barnabas: Do i remove it? | 00:59 |
| teage | so i tried to add a different clock from the add to panel options | 00:59 |
| teage | and now i have two | 00:59 |
| AnthonyZbierajew | hi all! | 00:59 |

| frozenskunk | whoever: ok, maybe I was wrong from the very beginning, doesn't ubuntu use samba to share by default? i.e. when you right click the folder, and choose share from that menu? | 01:00 |
| j3rg | lol damn thought i was in bash | 01:00 |
| === b_ is now known as Guest79281 | ||
| Barnabas | ok - if you remove the driver they will stop working | 01:00 |
| Barnabas | and you will be reduced to regular gfx | 01:00 |
| Scunizi | frozenskunk: it typically will ask if you want to install samba.. | 01:00 |
| Barnabas | "no effects" | 01:00 |
| MetalNate | I just removed it, can i install and older version | 01:00 |
| MetalNate | ? | 01:00 |
| Guest79281 | hello, I have a user with an encrypted home folder. I accidentally deleted the contents of ~/.ecryptfs folder. Can I get them back/recreate them? | 01:00 |
| teage | its kde | 01:00 |
| teage | i dont know | 01:01 |
| Barnabas | try to find an older version in synaptic | 01:01 |
| Scunizi | teage: do you have a question? | 01:01 |
| teage | been a long time since i used kde | 01:01 |
| Barnabas | usually you will se at least two versions | 01:01 |
| teage | yes | 01:01 |
| Scunizi | what | 01:01 |
| monra | Hello. I'm looking for free tools to create ER diagrams. Any ideas?(Except Dia) | 01:01 |
| teage | how to remove clock | 01:01 |
| MetalNate | Barnabas: but this isnt fixing the sliders that are permanatly on my screen though | 01:01 |
| Barnabas | then restart | 01:01 |
| teage | please | 01:01 |
| Scunizi | teage: in kde.. mouse over the clock and a bar will slide out from the side.. click the "x" | 01:02 |
| MetalNate | alright, i';ll be back | 01:02 |
| Barnabas | MetalNate, gnome right? | 01:02 |
| Guest88887 | sorry about that. In case u haven't figured it out.... | 01:02 |
| frozenskunk | Scunizi: Thanks, it might have the first time (was months ago) but now, I can just right click a folder on the dessktop, choose sharing, and set options from there, it never actually mentions HOW it's sharing (i.e. samba or other) | 01:02 |
| Guest88887 | <----N00B | 01:02 |
| whoever | frozenskunk: yep.. i figured you where tring to learn on ubuntu befre going to somthin' else | 01:02 |

| teage | didnt work | 01:02 |
| teage | see what i mean | 01:02 |
| teage | i cant get it off there | 01:02 |
| Scunizi | teage: is this a widgit on the screen? | 01:02 |
| frozenskunk | whoever: No, I use ubuntu because I'm too lazy to move on to anything else... ;-) | 01:03 |
| user01 | is there any monitor color calibration hardware that works with ubuntu? | 01:03 |

| Scunizi | teage: can you move the clock around on the screen | 01:03 |
| ctmjr | Guest88887: you added universe repo did you run aptitude update ? | 01:03 |
| teage | i didnt flood anything | 01:03 |
| teage | nope | 01:03 |
| Barnabas | nordle, had my machine floored by most anything in 9.10 | 01:03 |
| teage | i can move it back and forth | 01:04 |
| Barnabas | imho the worst release so far | 01:04 |
| teage | from within the panel | 01:04 |
| Scunizi | teage: if you do short posts and several in a row .. the bot says you're flooding.. | 01:04 |
| Scunizi | teage: where is the clock? | 01:04 |
| nordle | Barnabas: ahh, not a fan then :) it ate 2GB of RAM and 300mb swap. | 01:04 |
| teage | oh | 01:04 |
| teage | ok ic | 01:04 |
| whoever | frozenskunk: wasn't ubuntu-dev the ones who developed xorg grb | 01:04 |

| teage | in the panel | 01:04 |
| whoever | ; | 01:04 |
| Barnabas | love ubuntu | 01:04 |
| Barnabas | not 9.10 | 01:04 |
| Scunizi | teage: k.. hang on and let me boot kubuntu in my VM | 01:04 |
| teage | thanx | 01:04 |
| teage | sposed to be based on 8.10 | 01:05 |
| Barnabas | nordle, sounds like a mem leak | 01:05 |
| frozenskunk | whoever: no idea, what's grb? | 01:05 |
| nordle | Barnabas: Fair enough, I just gave up 9 years of Slackware in a weird end of year freaky moment....so far its going ok(ish), but finding issues now after day 2. | 01:05 |
| Guest88887 | it's still updating at the moment | 01:05 |

| Barnabas | none of my pcs worked on update | 01:06 |
| teage | its gone | 01:06 |
| Barnabas | none | 01:06 |
| nero_ | hi | 01:06 |
| Scunizi | teage: 8.10 is almost end of life... and a much earlier version of kde which may have some quirks.. you should upgrade to 9.04 then 9.10.. | 01:06 |
| MetalNate | Barnabas: I agree i've had nothing but problems with 9.10, can i revert my whole install? | 01:07 |
| frozenskunk | whoever: so do you think that file is being shared by something other than samba and that is why it isn't shown in the .conf file? | 01:07 |
| ctmjr | Guest88887: you might have added a slow mirror it normally takes just a couple seconds to run an update | 01:07 |
| drdr | howdy | 01:07 |
| nero_ | may anyone help me pleaz? | 01:07 |
| drdr | canyone know the ubuntu dev channel | 01:07 |
| nordle | Barnabas: Thanks for info. My old mans PC started on 8.04, updated to 8.10 and then 9.04. Think I'll leave it at 9.04 given that he's happy. | 01:07 |
| Barnabas | MetalNate, you could, but I suggest fixing the problems in 9.10 and keeping on track with contemporary error fixes | 01:07 |
| linoxman | hi people. I have a realtek usb 80211n. This is a 8192su, and not work in karmic. | 01:08 |

| whoever | frozenskunk: its ussally in /etc/sambasmb.conf | 01:08 |
| Guest88887 | should I just cancel | 01:08 |
| frozenskunk | whoever: I'm confused, what does toggling key maps have to do with samba shares? | 01:08 |

| Guest88887 | I mean close the terminal | 01:08 |
| Guest88887 | lol | 01:08 |
| ewook | Guest88887: let it run. | 01:08 |
| frozenskunk | whoever: ok, so it's probable that it's being shared by adifferent method? | 01:08 |
| ctmjr | Guest88887: no let it finish | 01:08 |
| ewook | Guest88887: check your load. | 01:08 |
| Guest88887 | ok | 01:09 |
| Guest88887 | 26%..... | 01:09 |
| MetalNate | Barnabas: Man, i just want the sliders gone, i just noticed on restart that it was perfoming a disk check and about 6 sliders where moving like a ladder during the check, then when it booted up the sliders that where on my screen are now one big long chain of green dots | 01:09 |
| Barnabas | MetalNate, try absolutely removing any nvidia driver | 01:09 |
| nordle | Is it possible to disable totem-video-thumbnailer? Uninstall just that component? | 01:09 |
| MetalNate | http://i.imgur.com/qE48r.png | 01:09 |
| ewook | Guest88887: systemload, not % of fetching info from mirrors | 01:09 |
| Barnabas | then move your /etc/X11/xorg.conf to a bak file | 01:09 |
| drdr | nordle disable the natulaus component | 01:09 |
| linoxman | drdr, dont work. If i put the firmware with the cd drivers, load modules, but many erros on dmsg | 01:09 |
| whoever | frozenskunk: nothing, i thaught you solved it so i asked a queution | 01:09 |

| monra | so any good ideas for a tool I can use to create ER diagrams in ubuntu? :) | 01:11 |
| drdr | monra use dia | 01:11 |
| whoever | frozenskunk: hyou can share with smb, ie:smbclient without samba server | 01:11 |
| frozenskunk | whoever: sorry, I'm easily confused... :-) I know very little about the keymapping though I'm getting ready to learn more. That is the next issue on the wife's computer, the numeric keypad stops and starts working randomly with occasional installs. | 01:11 |
| ctmjr | Guest88887: you do seem to be new to ubuntu/linux which is fine but may i ask why do you want aircrack it is not an easy thing to configure for a person new to linux | 01:12 |
| monra | drdr: except dia, dia need to much work to create a simple ER diagram :S.. I'm looking for something better. Also not kivio because i cannot add cardinality constraints in kivio | 01:12 |
| frozenskunk | whoever: I see, that might make more sense. Any idea which ubuntu does by default? | 01:12 |
| === Obamacide is now known as Liberal_Doucheba | ||
| Scunizi | frozenskunk: you sure the keypad doesn't start acting like a mouse control | 01:12 |
| linoxman | drdr, yes i tryng but not find for now. Probally this problem is the kernel 2.6.31, and in a 2.6.32 fix it, but i installed the 2.6.32 ppa for ubuntu, and this pkg not contain this drivers | 01:12 |
| frozenskunk | Scunizi: yep, no response at all other than num lock will toggle... | 01:13 |
| Barnabas | MetalNate, I am not quite sure what exactly you mean by "sliders" | 01:13 |
| Guest88887 | Funny thing is I used aircrack on backtrack b4 and it worked fine | 01:13 |
| MetalNate | look at the screenshots | 01:13 |

| Barnabas | he he | 01:13 |
| MetalNate | yup | 01:13 |
| Barnabas | coool | 01:13 |
| Scunizi | frozenskunk: that's different.. there is a bug about the numeric keypad being put into "mouse" mode.. but there's an easy fix for that.. ctrl+alt+numlock I think | 01:13 |

| whoever | frozenskunk: is her's a desktop or laptop | 01:15 |
| Guest88887 | I hope I'll be fine once I fix this | 01:15 |
| Barnabas | hmm MetalNate its not because you defined your desktop larger than what your monitor can display? | 01:15 |
| unimatrix | why does the "switch user" function lock my screen instead of letting me switch users? | 01:16 |
| tmcc | ahoi ladies | 01:16 |
| frozenskunk | Scunizi: I'll be darned, I hadn't noticed that before, must have been because I was hitting keys quick and not holding them down. those keys didn't fix it but I will track the right ones down. THANKS! | 01:16 |

| sixtila | tmcc i wanna be sure that it is broken or not - at least ubuntu says so in the beginning | 01:20 |

| cyrus1 | moore: I did run a test with a madriva disk and it reported the error: /dev/sda: read failed after 0 of 4096 at 0: Input/Output error | 01:20 |
| MetalNate | Barnabas: whats really making me mad is everything was perfect until 9.10 | 01:20 |
| whoever | frostburn: nothe light means num or scroll lock | 01:20 |
| ActionParsnip | person: yes it doesnt have the booting info | 01:20 |
| tmcc | sixtila, your dealer or electrian has tools to check the accu | 01:20 |
| moore | cyrus1: hmm... that sounds like a hard disk issue. how old's the computer? | 01:21 |
| Barnabas | MetalNate, what does glxinfo | grep direct give you | 01:21 |
| person | ActionParsnip, What makes you think that? And what booting info? | 01:21 |
| cyrus1 | it's a couple years old | 01:21 |
| Barnabas | perhaps use pastebin | 01:21 |
| sixtila | tmcc ok, thanks - unfortunately, i bought this laptop in other country :-( | 01:21 |
| whoever | frostburn: brb food, did't wwant you to think u got abandond | 01:21 |
| MetalNate | Barnabas: man you gotta tell me how to get to it, i am not so used to the technical | 01:21 |
| MJas1016 | actionparsnip: yes i have a nvidia card | 01:21 |
| tmcc | sixtila, that should be no problem ... | 01:21 |
| ActionParsnip | person: the iso file has booting info as well as the files, if you extract the file and do not reform the iso properly you will lose that info | 01:21 |
| Barnabas | heh | 01:21 |

| Barnabas | glxinfo | grep direct | 01:22 |
| person | ActionParsnip, Then how do disk burning programs tell whether or not a burn was successful? | 01:22 |
| ActionParsnip | MJas1016: you can then set some resolution and click "save to x config file" | 01:22 |
| Scunizi | MJas1016: did you happen to install ubuntu supplied driver or the one direct from ubuntu? | 01:22 |
| tmcc | unimatrix, su user | 01:22 |

| MetalNate | Barnabas: im downloading from synaptic the newest nvidia drivers.... i thinjk | 01:22 |
| moore | cyrus1: hmm... how does the livecd run? | 01:22 |
| cyrus1 | perhaps I should run hitachi diagnostics on it? | 01:22 |
| ActionParsnip | person: it puts the files on the disk you tell it, if you tell it to burn an iso it will be different | 01:22 |
| Guest88887 | I'll check it out | 01:22 |
| Scunizi | MJas1016: k.. | 01:23 |
| Guest88887 | But please...don't go anywhere lol | 01:23 |
| MJas1016 | scunizi: sorry, I am not sure. I re-read the question | 01:23 |
| person | ActionParsnip, I told it to burn an ISO | 01:23 |
| ActionParsnip | MJas1016: you can then run: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and set the resolution you wish to use | 01:23 |
| Barnabas | MetalNate, will require a reboot then let me know how it goes | 01:23 |
| person | ActionParsnip, I burned the same ISO to 3 DVD's and extracted ISO's from each DVD; the 3 extracted ISO's were identical to each other, but different from the original. | 01:23 |
| ActionParsnip | person: then why are you on about extracting the file? | 01:23 |
| cyrus1 | moore: how do you mean? | 01:23 |
| ActionParsnip | person: did you MD5 test the ISO file? | 01:23 |
| person | ActionParsnip, Yeah | 01:23 |

| ActionParsnip | person: maybe you need some boot options | 01:24 |
| moore | cyrus1: when you run the livecd, does everything seem to behave? you could then use that livecd's disk utility to check on the health of the hard drive. | 01:24 |
| person | ActionParsnip, Boot options? Why? | 01:24 |
| MetalNate | see i remove the driver i had, and it wont let me reinstall says to check jockey | 01:24 |
| ActionParsnip | person: i'm not sure can do that | 01:24 |
| ActionParsnip | person: makes hardware work if a good cd will not give a good boot | 01:25 |
| person | ActionParsnip, I heard you can and it worked in the past. But maybe it works differently with DVD's. | 01:25 |

| person | ActionParsnip, Well, I haven't tried booting it. I just want to make sure that it's not flawed before I go trying to do a Debian Lenny installation from it. | 01:25 |
| cyrus1 | moore: I ran the disk utility and the memory check and everything came out fine | 01:25 |
| ActionParsnip | person: the data is different.I thinnk you will find that is the issue, download the dvd iso and burn it to a dvd | 01:25 |
| moore | cyrus1: *frown* | 01:26 |
| unimatrix | tmcc: yes you can, only it doesn't work with FGLRX | 01:26 |

| tmcc | Oops | 01:29 |
| person | ActionParsnip, if my logic is good, it's unlikely that a burn would fail three times and result in the same md5sum; hence, there has been no failure, but rather a difference in disk images resulting from DVD's being different. | 01:29 |

I suppose I could look for an update but isn't a pain to update bios without windows? or is it just a matter of creating a boot floppy with a flash program from AsRock? | 01:32 |

| myk_robinson | mazda01: that works too. If i place that command in the startup apps, will it fail because a password is not being issued? | 01:44 |

| sixtila | ubuntu is all right | 01:44 |
| tmcc | desktop1__, u need the find command .. or install the midnight commander with the buildin search | 01:44 |
| nandu20 | wine is not working properly | 01:45 |
| Maletor | blakkheim, well what about movieplayer? you really stand behind mplayer that strongly? | 01:45 |
| blakkheim | !md5 > sixtila | 01:45 |
| ubottu | sixtila, please see my private message | 01:45 |
| tmcc | desktop1__, or apps like locate | 01:45 |
| blakkheim | Maletor: the multithreaded version of mplayer will solve your problem. | 01:45 |
| tty13 | desktop1_, there is a select all in the edit menu, maybe copy to gedit and find ? | 01:45 |
| MetalNate | barnabas: help me man, im in low graphics mode now, everytime i try to reinstall my driver it fails | 01:45 |
| ActionParsnip | MetalNate: what video card? | 01:46 |
| legend2440 | needskype: in terminal try sudo apt-get install ia32-libs or look in synaptic for it | 01:46 |
| mazda01 | myk_robinson, not sure, you;ll have to try it. you could add that commadn to start up apps list, then just issue sudo service gdm restart and it | 01:46 |
| MetalNate | it's an nvidia | 01:46 |
| tmcc | desktop1__, you want to find files or in a file? | 01:46 |
| needskype | legend2440, that says it's not found. | 01:46 |

| ActionParsnip | MetalNate: sudo apt-get update; gksudo jockey-gtk | 01:46 |
| blakkheim | Maletor: http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/news.html | 01:46 |
| mazda01 | also, will it be ok if I use aptoncd, make an iso image, then backup everything, adn do a fresh install, run aptoncd restore, then just paste over new /etc/ and /home/ and /usr/ with old copies of those folders? | 01:46 |
| needskype | legend2440, Package ia32-libs is not available, but is referred to by another package. | 01:46 |
| needskype | This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or | 01:46 |
| needskype | is only available from another source | 01:46 |

| protojay | in ubuntu, the numpad moves the mouse cursor? is that right? | 01:47 |
| myk_robinson | mazda01: wonder why its not starting. Previous versions, if you installed a daemon, it started on bootup, ot at least asked if you wanted it to. I can start it manually, just peculiar. Thank you | 01:47 |
| ActionParsnip | clop: you must upgrade to 9.04 first, otherwise yes | 01:47 |
| PyroPhelia | does anybody here work with servers with 20+TB on them? | 01:47 |

| ActionParsnip | PyroPhelia: yeah, management decision but i have a new less cool job | 01:48 |
| mazda01 | myk_robinson, check out that link and if you run the commands within it, it should add that service to start at different run levels | 01:48 |
| MetalNate | ActionParsnip: I did that, and went back to Hardware Drivers and i push activate and it says installaion failed and to see /var/log/jockey.log | 01:48 |
| ActionParsnip | !upgrade | clop | 01:48 |

| ActionParsnip | MetalNate: you can add the nvidia ppa and install the driver from there | 01:49 |
| cysic | Hay guys stupid question but i dont have any usb's or disks on me right now and im trying to think of a way to install BackTrack without burning it onto any thing is there any alternitives? | 01:49 |

| ChessyHam | How do I deleted the old builds from the grub list??? | 01:50 |
| legend2440 | needskype: you sure you installed ubuntu 64? | 01:50 |
| ActionParsnip | PyroPhelia: we use SAS 15,000rpms | 01:50 |
| ActionParsnip | PyroPhelia: sata just didnt cut if for speed | 01:50 |
| needskype | legend2440, YES. 32-bit will NOT work. | 01:50 |

| Hashishin | I want to chainload a truecryptbootloader on second drive with grub2. but it always show me "no such device" + uuid ;-/ I get uuid with sudo blkid /dev/mapper/truecrypt1 after mount this partition with truecrypt...is this the false way? | 01:51 |
| cysic | ChessyHam just goto terminal and type sudo update-grub2 | 01:51 |
| legend2440 | needskype: not sure whats wrong sorry | 01:51 |
| cysic | ChessyHam what version of grub are you using | 01:51 |
| Maletor | blakkheim, it's VLC | 01:51 |
| invisime | is there a good program for accessing photos/video off of a camera using PTP? the vendor software that came with my camcorder is windows/mac only. | 01:51 |
| blakkheim | Maletor: problem found, then. :/ | 01:51 |
| ChessyHam | I think its grub 2 | 01:51 |
| Maletor | blakkheim, or if I'm using movieplayer, it's movieplayer! --- ok so then why doesn't it load balance | 01:51 |
| ChessyHam | it looks a little idfferent from the previous one | 01:51 |
| needskype | This whole chatroom doesn't know how to install Skype in Ubuntu Karmic?!? Skype is like the most used app EVER! | 01:52 |
| legend2440 | needskype: in terminal type uname -a whats it say? | 01:52 |
| blakkheim | Maletor: because those programs were not well-written and only take advantage of one thread. | 01:52 |
| PyroPhelia | ActionParsnip, figures. we couldn't afford a SAS drives. we needed around 1PB and it only cost us $80k to build the servers using sata. the SAS route would have costs us nearly $800k | 01:52 |
| cysic | ChessyHam just goto terminal and type in sudo update-grub2 then | 01:52 |
| CShadowRun | needskype: hi, you just download the latest 32bit version of skype from skype.com | 01:52 |
| ActionParsnip | needskype: you'll find the kernel is | 01:52 |

| CShadowRun | :) | 01:52 |
| Maletor | blakkheim, that's really pathetic on the part of the VLC team, very very very very very pathetic | 01:52 |
| ActionParsnip | needskype: add the medibuntu repo, you can then install skype from there | 01:52 |
| blakkheim | Maletor: i agree, i dislike vlc | 01:52 |

| ActionParsnip | !info ekiga | 01:55 |
| MetalNate | ActionParsnip: Is there a simple way i can just reinstall the driver | 01:55 |
| nstyr65 | interesting | 01:55 |
| FireCrotch | nstyr65: There are open source VOIP clients, but none that are compatible with Skype. skype uses a proprietary protocol | 01:55 |
| ubottu | ekiga (source: ekiga): H.323 and SIP compatible VoIP client. In component main, is optional. Version 3.2.5-1ubuntu1 (karmic), package size 5589 kB, installed size 15448 kB | 01:55 |
| nstyr65 | that sucks | 01:55 |
| CShadowRun | needskype: and you run "sudo dpkg -i --force-architecture skype*.deb" | 01:55 |
| ActionParsnip | MetalNate: sudo apt-get --purge remove nvidia*; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove | 01:55 |
| CShadowRun | needskype: that should work. | 01:55 |
| needskype | CShadowRun, "dpkg: requested operation requires superuser privilege | 01:55 |
| needskype | " whats this mean? | 01:55 |
| nstyr65 | type sudo before it | 01:56 |
| CShadowRun | needskype: you need to run it with sudo, i gave you the new command just now :) | 01:56 |

| cysic | No a different os im trying to install BackTrack but im away from home i has no disks or removable storage | 01:59 |
| ActionParsnip | MetalNate: you can run software sources and add the ppa lane as an extra repo, then when you close it you can run: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-190 | 01:59 |
| cysic | Im on ubuntu now | 01:59 |

| ActionParsnip | !backtrack | 01:59 |
| ubottu | There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mintsupport), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), crunchbang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #remote-exploit) | 01:59 |

| sedaghatfar | eeeandrew: okay I do not get a real menu it says loading grub 1.5 then error 17 | 02:00 |
| cysic | ActionParsnip what? | 02:00 |
| ActionParsnip | cysic: backtrack is not supported here | 02:00 |
| eeeandrew | sedaghatfar: do you have a LiveCd lying around? | 02:00 |
| Out_Cold | cysic, join #remote-exploit for backtrack support | 02:01 |
| nstyr65 | cysic; I think you have to create a new partition | 02:01 |
| sedaghatfar | eeeandrew: yes I just loaded it | 02:01 |
| nstyr65 | like 3 gigs | 02:01 |
| cysic | I have a partition | 02:01 |
| MetalNate | ActionParsnip: in software sources i know how to add a repo, but waht to i typin in for ppa | 02:01 |
| nstyr65 | cysic; no, a new partition to boot from | 02:01 |
| ActionParsnip | the text in bold for the link i gave you | 02:01 |
| cysic | i have a new partition | 02:01 |
| eeeandrew | sedeghatfar: Good. Go onto the liveCD. Enter terminal and type in: sudo update-grub | 02:02 |
| cysic | formated in FAT32 | 02:02 |
| cysic | empty | 02:02 |
| nstyr65 | you should be able to install the os from there | 02:02 |
| nstyr65 | check the documentation for your os cysic | 02:02 |
| MetalNate | ActionParsnip: ahh ok got it | 02:02 |
| cysic | i need to install it withough any removable storage | 02:02 |
| hikenboot | their is a bug where ksm breaks encryption (with swap file ) is there a fix I cant seem to find one | 02:02 |
| eeeandrew | sedaghatfar: I believe whats happened is that changing the partitions has made grub lose track. That command will bring it back up to speed | 02:02 |
| ActionParsnip | MetalNate: you can do it at command line with: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nvidia-vdpau/ppa | 02:02 |
| hikenboot | sorry their/there | 02:02 |
| nstyr65 | yes cysic that's the point of having a new partition of about 3 gigs | 02:03 |
| nstyr65 | you boot from that and install the os | 02:03 |
| nstyr65 | but it depends on the os | 02:03 |
| nstyr65 | I can't really help there | 02:03 |
| MetalNate | thank you | 02:03 |
| ActionParsnip | MetalNate: you can then run: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-190 | 02:03 |

| nstyr65 | when you encrypt a file or filesystem you turn that stuff into random bits of data | 02:11 |

| MilPot | Blue, do you have windows? | 02:18 |
| LucidGuy | VirtualBox issue. Trying to startup a previous Windows7 VM from the exact same hardware just newer version of Ubuntu. Was on Jaunty now Karmic (full install NOT upgraded). I simply restored the vdi and the !/.VirtualBox conf from my home dir. Everything looks fine but all my previous VMs wont start. Freeze or other errors. Should this even work? Am I missing something? | 02:18 |
| Guest88887 | now it's unloading the files | 02:18 |
| blakkheim | BlueAlchemy: stop buying seagate drives | 02:18 |
| BlueAlchemy | not on my laptop | 02:18 |
| DarkMasterHalo | BlueAlchemy: Is it formatted in NTFS ? | 02:18 |
| Jimmy` | I can't even boot into my Windows anymore, the GRUB rescue prompt comes up instead | 02:18 |
| Scott1979 | is there a windows installation on th external hd blue | 02:18 |
| FireCrotch | BlueAlchemy: Sounds like it's formatted with the ntfs filesystem and was not cleanly unmounted from within windows | 02:18 |
| BlueAlchemy | I never formatted it, just used it out of the box | 02:18 |
| MilPot | BlueAlchemy: Next time make sure you Safely remove it before unplugging it | 02:18 |
| Scott1979 | i second that firecrouch | 02:18 |
| gar | yes I can ping it | 02:18 |
| === diego is now known as Guest61334 | ||
| blakkheim | gar: try using scp -v instead of just scp for easier debugging | 02:19 |
| Lolocafera | heya, folks | 02:19 |
| BlueAlchemy | except that windows does not mount anything in the sense that Linux and MacOS do | 02:19 |
| MilPot | BlueAlchemy: sudo apt-get install ntfsprogs, followed by sudo ntfsfix /dev/drive_name | 02:20 |
| Out_Cold | so can i add a second keyboard layout to my server to allow a remote keyboard to function? the problem exists in vmware-server and those guys aren't of much help | 02:20 |
| gar | blakkheim, just receive no route to host on port 22 | 02:20 |
| MilPot | BlueAlchemy: Then it should mount. | 02:20 |
| FireCrotch | BlueAlchemy: It's pretty much the same thing, actually. | 02:20 |
| blakkheim | gar: and you can ssh to it without error? | 02:20 |
| BlueAlchemy | cool, thanks guys | 02:20 |
| gar | yes, blakkheim | 02:20 |
| Nightlight | Hi guys, i've got a "command not found" when using Distributed Shell... in Ubuntu, anybody can figure it out ? | 02:20 |
| arobitag | so according to palimpsest disk utility, my hard drive disk "HAS MANY BAD SECTORS" I googled around a bit and apparently there are some bugs popping up in karmic about this, so people recommended grabbing the disk utility from the manufacturer to test. drive is a seagate barricuda and unfortunately they don't off a linux disk utility | 02:20 |
| Scott1979 | windows mounts HD it just does it for u | 02:20 |
| Scott1979 | same as ubuntu mount | 02:21 |
| nstyr65 | Nightlight; what are you trying to do? | 02:21 |
| arobitag | are there any other utilities that would be recommended to verify the hd is failing? | 02:21 |
| MilPot | BlueAlchemy: Always eject/safely remove drives, especially if write caching is enabled. | 02:21 |
| whoever | Jimmy`: ..quick call 9-1-1 ubuntu is dead | 02:21 |
| gar | it's similar to this, I guess : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=281007 | 02:21 |
| BlueAlchemy | ok, I think I know what the problem was | 02:21 |
| MetalNate | legend2440: when i restart i get this message : (EE) nvidia(0) failed to load nvidia kernel module | 02:21 |
| nstyr65 | Nightlight; that just means it's not a recognizable command in bash | 02:21 |
| Lolocafera | I'm stuck with this sucky new version of Grub, I can't restart my computer because said sucky version is unable to get any input from my USB keyboard | 02:21 |
| whoever | or grub | 02:21 |
| Nightlight | I'm trying to run a torque installation on a remote computer | 02:21 |
| FireCrotch | arobitag: seagate provides a DOS-based boot disk with their disk utility on it | 02:21 |
| Nightlight | you say it only accepts bash commands ? | 02:22 |
| MilPot | Lolocafera: turn legacy USB support on in your bios? | 02:22 |
| ardchoille | http://www.hungry-hackers.com/2009/12/how-to-hack-password-of-any-operating-system.html | 02:22 |
| nstyr65 | oh sorry Nightlight idk about that shell | 02:22 |
| nstyr65 | but I'm sure that means it's not the right command | 02:22 |
| Scott1979 | i get usb keyboard support in new grub | 02:22 |
| ardchoille | Sorry, wrong window | 02:22 |
| Jimmy` | So is there anything I can do to my windows partition to restore it to the original windows 7 bootloader? | 02:22 |
| whoever | Lolocafera: its becaus hal | 02:22 |
| legend2440 | MetalNate: did you say your kernel headers were not installed before? | 02:22 |
| nstyr65 | make sure you typed it right Nightlight | 02:22 |
| Scott1979 | use oph crack for password recovery | 02:23 |
| Nightlight | yes i'm aware that doesnt find the command, but dont get it right | 02:23 |
| arobitag | FireCrotch: oh really? looking for that now | 02:23 |
| Jimmy` | Without the disk? I don't have it with me and I can't get to it for about 2 weeks | 02:23 |
| Nightlight | the shellscript is on the current dir | 02:23 |
| MetalNate | legend2440: see i been having problems since the 9.10 upgrade, a guy advised me to reinstally my gfx driver and now i cant reinstall it, no that kernel header error was cause i had synaptic and a terminal sudo runing at the same time | 02:23 |
| nstyr65 | Nightlight; so did you write the script? | 02:23 |
| Lolocafera | my question is simple: I know my problem can be temporarily solved by deleting some files, but I don't remember which | 02:23 |
| legend2440 | MetalNate: oh ok | 02:23 |
| FireCrotch | arobitag: I believe it's called Seatools | 02:23 |
| whoever | Jimmy`: boot to the win7 disc and select repair | 02:24 |
| Nightlight | im doing: dsh -a script.sh --install | 02:24 |
| MilPot | Jimmy`: get an XP boot disk, run fixmbr | 02:24 |
| Nightlight | and i got command not found | 02:24 |
| MetalNate | legend2440: im in low graphics mode now, i've done evertyhing i know how to do, i just want my driver back | 02:24 |
| arobitag | FireCrotch: nice, just found seatools for dos | 02:24 |
| legend2440 | MetalNate: what is error message when you click Activate? | 02:24 |
| whoever | Jimmy`: could also dothe same with ubuntu | 02:24 |
| MetalNate | legend2440: now hardware drivers says that no proprietary drivers are installed, but there should be | 02:25 |
| silare | How do I get automount NTFS and HFS+ working using fstab? | 02:25 |
| Lolocafera | FYI, I'm under a live session right now, because Grub 2 decided to forbid me to boot | 02:25 |
| blakkheim | silare: man fstab | 02:25 |
| Jimmy` | Hmm, but now my ubuntu disk wont mount | 02:25 |
| okan_ | silare | 02:25 |
| Jimmy` | and I don't know why | 02:25 |
| MilPot | silare: install ntfs-config for NTFS drives is the easiest route | 02:25 |
| Nightlight | i didnt right the script, it's a make package, actually it's a Torque installer | 02:25 |
| Scott1979 | lolocafera u need to config your startup manager in system/administration | 02:25 |
| MilPot | silare: auto adds the drives too fstab | 02:25 |
| silare | okan_: I did... But is that for automounting? | 02:25 |
| silare | *MilPot: ^ | 02:25 |
| silare | Sorry. | 02:26 |
| Lolocafera | Scott1979: will it work from a live session? | 02:26 |
| legend2440 | MetalNate: when you open Hardware Drivers is there anything in there? | 02:26 |
| okan_ | Milpot is correct :) | 02:26 |
| MetalNate | legend2440: nothing | 02:26 |
| silare | okan_: Awesome. | 02:26 |
| silare | Alright. | 02:26 |
| Scott1979 | lolocafera go private message | 02:26 |
| MetalNate | legend2440: there was until actionparsnip had me remove everthing | 02:26 |
| silare | I'll try it out. Will it screw up my default Ubuntu automounting (ex: hotplugging flashdrives, etc.) | 02:26 |
| okan_ | which version do you use ubuntu? | 02:26 |
| Nightlight | nstyr65 , im doing: "dsh -a script.sh --install" this is a torque installation | 02:27 |
| silare | okan_: Karmic. | 02:27 |
| MilPot | silare: nope | 02:27 |
| okan_ | ok listen to me | 02:27 |
| silare | MilPot: Awesome. | 02:27 |
| okan_ | use alt+f2 | 02:27 |
| nstyr65 | Nightlight; I've never used it before, but you could try searching google to see if you have the right commands | 02:27 |
| Guest49365 | join archlinux | 02:27 |
| silare | okan_: gksu ntfs-config? | 02:27 |
| okan_ | yes | 02:27 |
| silare | okan_: Because I have it open. >_> | 02:27 |
| okan_ | :) | 02:28 |
| okan_ | Ok | 02:28 |
| silare | okan_: But last time I tried to do automount aside from manual fstab editing I jacked up my entire ability to automount anything or hotplug USBs. x_x | 02:28 |
| okan_ | hmm | 02:28 |
| Nightlight | nstyr65: yeah, i run out of chances so i'm here :p | 02:28 |
| okan_ | USBs ? | 02:28 |
| okan_ | ok | 02:28 |
| MilPot | silare: it does fstab automounting, nothing else. Uses NTFS-3G drivers, allowing you to edit NTFS partitions | 02:28 |
| MetalNate | legend2440: can you help me | 02:28 |
| nstyr65 | Nightlight; google each of those commands | 02:28 |
| nstyr65 | and see what they do | 02:29 |
| Guest88887 | ok all done | 02:29 |
| nstyr65 | you should be able to find out | 02:29 |
| Guest88887 | now what? | 02:29 |
| evon | can someone tell me the mount command to mount a fat16 partition pleas | 02:29 |
| Guest88887 | lol | 02:29 |
| silare | MilPot: I'll try it then. Thanks, both of you (MilPot and okan_). | 02:29 |
| legend2440 | MetalNate: 1 sec | 02:29 |
| silare | Wait. What about HFS+? | 02:29 |
| nstyr65 | actually Nightlight it's a good practice to google unknown commands when people want you to run stuff, because it could be something malicious | 02:30 |
| legend2440 | MetalNate: you say the 96 drivers are only ones that work with your card? | 02:30 |

| === nstyr65 is now known as anon65 | ||
| ctmjr | Guest88887: good now sudo aptitude install aircrack-ng | 02:31 |
| Nightlight | nstyr65: well, not this case, the script has an embedded installation for Torque Clustering, and it's compiling and made by the creators, a sofware company, it's just that Dsh doesnt look to work well | 02:32 |
| mqueiros | hi! Does mplayer on 9.10 works with vdpau ? thanks. | 02:32 |

| === shawn_ is now known as Tiders | ||
| Dr_Willis | BigWings: what filesystem? if its a linux filesystem - You must set the proper ownership/permissions on teh filesystem, or directories on it to access them | 03:06 |
| ubuntu | its on ubuntu 9.10 k | 03:06 |
| SirCharles | Hello everyone, anyone use wmii or know about simple coding | 03:06 |
| Dr_Willis | ubuntu: For Linux to Linux. You may want to use scp, or sshfs, to get files back and forth. Or set up a NFS share for somthing more perment. | 03:06 |
| Dr_Willis | SirCharles: wmii the window manager? i recall playign with it ages ago. :) but not used it in proberly a year. | 03:07 |
| Dr_Willis | !info wmii | 03:07 |
| ubottu | wmii (source: wmii): lightweight tabbed and tiled X11 window manager, version 3. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.6+debian-5 (karmic), package size 124 kB, installed size 420 kB | 03:07 |

| Out_Cold | oops | 03:08 |
| Out_Cold | how do i get keymap info?? ie: find out which keymap is used for RCtrl | 03:08 |
| Dr_Willis | ubuntu: thats using 'samba' to share things. For a Linux to linxu box. NFS would be faster.. but its not a simple 'click and its shared' sort of thing. | 03:08 |
| ubuntu | unable to mount location msg/ Failed to mount Windows share | 03:08 |
| Dr_Willis | ubuntu: you could also edit the smb.conf and enable the home directorys to be shared if you wanted. | 03:08 |
| Tiders | How can I check HDD for bad sectors? | 03:08 |
| ubuntu | Dr_Willis: its ubuntu to ubuntu | 03:08 |
| ubuntu | Dr_Willis: its ubuntu but it shares fine to my windows computers | 03:09 |
| Dr_Willis | ubuntu: then you may want to look into 'NFS' or at least check out 'sshfs' or the sftp feature under the 'connect to server' in the gnome menus. | 03:09 |
| xangua | ubuntu you shpuld change ypur name ;) | 03:09 |

| meway | Dr_Willis: got it thanks ;) | 03:34 |
| themarmot | i can connect to the box via ssh, ping it etc... but not see the outside world ... i.e. ping google.com returns unknown host | 03:34 |

| Jordan_U | RubbberDucky: Handbrake | 03:47 |

| Flootenkerp | In order to do that extra repositories have to be enabled. | 03:47 |
| Dr_Willis | Flootenkerp: install what? from what extra repos? if the repo dosent have stuff for 10.04 yet.. then its not there yet.. I suggest sticking with the normal releases for now. | 03:48 |
| rww | Flootenkerp: what is it you're trying to install? | 03:48 |
| Flootenkerp | alright, I was just testing it out | 03:48 |

| aletheia8556 | blakkheim i did that and it just rattled off a bunch of stuff | 03:53 |
| [Ex0r] | Now I can't install anything because I am getting a Broken dependencies error | 03:53 |
| [Ex0r] | how do I go about fixing it ? | 03:53 |
| rip | ok, but right now I have 9.04 installed unencrypted ... there is no way for me to install an encrypted 9.10 on top of this w/o erasing and starting a fresh install, correct? | 03:53 |
| blakkheim | aletheia8556: "a bunch of stuff" doesn't help anyone help you | 03:53 |

| MJas1016 | how do I set "boot from cd" on karmic koala? I am reformatting. | 03:53 |
| blakkheim | MJas1016: that's in your bios, not ubuntu | 03:53 |
| themarmot | minimec, i've of course changed it on both the tethered computer to 8.8.8.8 (googles dns) | 03:53 |
| themarmot | but it changes back | 03:54 |
| MJas1016 | blakkheim: how do I get to bios in ubuntu? | 03:54 |
| blakkheim | MJas1016: it is unrelated to ubuntu | 03:54 |
| minimec | themarmot: ok. wait a moment. | 03:54 |
| themarmot | and so i thought maybe change it on the host computer, but that doesn't seem to have any effect | 03:54 |
| rip | Jordan_U: Fedora encrypt feature seems to encrypt the entire disk including swap. So, are you saying that ubuntu's encnrypt only encrypts /home? | 03:54 |

| rip | blakkheim: but I prefer to install from the regular CD since it is more standard and more supported | 03:55 |
| [Ex0r] | It wont tell me what packages are broken or anything | 03:55 |
| blakkheim | rip: the alternate cd is just as supported and i don't think you can do full system encryption with the livecd | 03:55 |

| blakkheim | rip: there you go | 03:56 |
| Jordan_U | rip: I've always wondered, what is the use of having anything other than /home encrypted? | 03:56 |
| blogometer | No ideas on where to set a global umask, where that might be set? | 03:56 |
| rip | ok, then my next question is (with all the default options selected) what software does the alternate CD install that the regular does not, and vice versa? | 03:56 |
| aletheia8556 | why isn't there an xorg.conf file in ubuntu 9.10?? | 03:56 |
| Guest24239 | Would it be a problem to have multiple distros sharing a single /home partition? | 03:56 |
| blakkheim | rip: they are the same unless you use the minimal iso | 03:57 |
| rww | rip: They install the same software by default, I believe. | 03:57 |
| Jordan_U | rip: They are identical ( if you choose default options in the alternate install CD ) | 03:57 |
| blakkheim | aletheia8556: hal | 03:57 |
| rww | aletheia8556: because Xorg autodetects by default now. You can create one at /etc/X11/xorg.conf if you need to. | 03:57 |
| aletheia8556 | what does hal medan | 03:57 |
| blakkheim | !hal > aletheia8556 | 03:57 |
| ubottu | aletheia8556, please see my private message | 03:57 |
| Jordan_U | Guest24239: There could be some small incommpatabilities but for the most part I think it's fine. Many people do it | 03:58 |
| rip | Jordan_U: I see your point, and I assume having only /home encrypted has performance benefits... but I feel under a better security blanket when whole disk (all partitions) is encrypted (maybe this is a false sense of security) | 03:58 |
| Guest24239 | Jordan_U: Alright, well if all the cool kids are doing it... haha, thanks. | 03:58 |

| brando753 | guys what should i do? http://img109.imageshack.us/img109/9719/screenshotsmartdata.png | 03:58 |
| minimec | themarmot: Here are two nameservers of a swiss provider. Take one of them and replace the ip you find in your /etc/resolv.conf To do that you have to open that file as sudoer... <alt>F2 gksudo gedit /etc/resolv.conf 62.2.24.162 / 62.2.17.60 | 03:58 |
| TheEpitome | Jordan_U: /usr shouldn't ever have personal data in it unless you purposely put it there. | 03:59 |
| mclark1129 | Is there something I could do to see if my script is not being executed, or if it IS being executed, but experiencing errors? | 03:59 |
| blakkheim | brando753: get a new hard drive | 03:59 |
| aletheia8556 | Blakkheim i need an xorg.conf file to copy. i know how to make the actual blank file but I'm not technical enough to put all the info in it. where can i copy and paste this information? | 03:59 |
| themarmot | minimec, I did that w/ googles - i'll try these, but I'm able to traceroute and ping googles just fine 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 | 03:59 |
| Jordan_U | brando753: Like the warning says, back up all data and replace the drive | 03:59 |
| brando753 | blakkheim: is it physical damage or can it be repaired? | 03:59 |
| themarmot | minimec, i'm doing this on the computer w/out wireless correct? | 04:00 |
| blakkheim | brando753: looks physical to me | 04:00 |
| Jordan_U | brando753: Physical damage | 04:00 |
| rww | aletheia8556: if you run "sudo X -configure", it should generate something to start from | 04:00 |
| blakkheim | brando753: i'd get that data off as soon as possible to a backup drive | 04:00 |
| brando753 | is there a way to test the drive? | 04:00 |
| brando753 | again or no | 04:00 |
| aletheia8556 | rww: i've done that so i just need to copy that from the terminal or should it already be in an xorg file? | 04:00 |
| themarmot | minimec, just fixed it | 04:00 |
| aletheia8556 | i' sorry i'm a non techie noob | 04:00 |
| minimec | themarmot: That computer, that cannot resolv the names of the homepages ;) | 04:01 |
| themarmot | minimec, i added googles dns to the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 | 04:01 |
| themarmot | and rebooted | 04:01 |
| [Ex0r] | damn this went horribly wrong | 04:01 |
| [Ex0r] | using the ubuntu server LTS dvd to install, and once it got to setting up packages, everything started failing | 04:01 |
| rww | aletheia8556: that command would create xorg.conf.new in your current directory, so you'd need to move it to /etc/X11/xorg.conf if you want to use it, yes. | 04:01 |
| [Ex0r] | now when I loaded it up, it's telling me packages are broken and I can't do anything to fix them | 04:01 |
| aletheia8556 | how do i do that? | 04:02 |
| rip | ok, my question to every1 listening is: does having the entire disk encrypted (all partitions) pose any benefits over just encrypted /home if you're not going to put sensitive data anywhere but inside /home ? | 04:02 |
| minimec | themarmot: cool ;) | 04:02 |
| philabole | Can any one help me with installing ubuntu on a brand new build? | 04:02 |

| [Ex0r] | Jordan_U- yes, the cd is fine | 04:03 |
| rip | ok, so what are the benefits? | 04:03 |
| rww | rip: it makes it somewhat harder for an attacker to modify the unencrypted portion of the disk to add something that'll steal your password | 04:03 |
| philabole | copy that | 04:03 |
| rip | rww: ok that makes sense | 04:03 |
| mclark1129 | !ask | 04:03 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 04:03 |
| [Ex0r] | I tried using sudo aptitude and using 'b' to find broken packages, but it's not finding any | 04:03 |
| MikeChelen | rip: depends if you are 100% sure nothing sensitive is written outside /home | 04:03 |
| rip | yes, that is a perfectly good reason to encrypt the entire disk | 04:04 |
| aletheia8556 | rww i looked in my etc/X11 folders and i don't see an xorg.conf.new file | 04:04 |
| mclark1129 | philabole: I'm somewhat of a Linux n00b but I was able to install Ubuntu on my own, what specifically do you need help with? | 04:04 |
| === geneticx is now known as etnos | ||
| MikeChelen | rww: keylogger can be installed to bootloader on fully encrypted disk too ;) | 04:04 |
| rip | yeah, that's true. something sentitive could be written to /tmp by GNOME, etc. correct? | 04:04 |
| rww | aletheia8556: note the "current directory" part of my message. It'd probably be easier if you stated the actual problem you're having, i.e. the one that's necessitating you editing xorg.conf. | 04:04 |
| Jordan_U | rip: But you have to enter your password at boot, so it really just moves the attack vector to the bootloader | 04:05 |
| TNA5000 | helo, i can't remember the command to see the system log file. By system log file i mean if I connect a USB device and want to see the log of the connection and all the infromation about the hardware.. can anyone help? | 04:05 |
| Jordan_U | rip: Or the kernel | 04:05 |
| MikeChelen | rip: yup, depending on how the sensitive data is being read & edited | 04:05 |
| rww | MikeChelen: I know. It's harder to mess with the bootloader, though. No system is 100% perfectly secure. | 04:05 |

| mclark1129 | I am having a problem with GRUB2 not using the timeout I have set, has anyone else had this issue? | 04:06 |
| rww | CrazyTux: plug it in, run dmesg, look in the last few lines for something like sdX, that'd match up to /dev/sdX | 04:06 |
| MikeChelen | rww: yeah true, either kind is not immune from modification by someone with physical access | 04:06 |
| CrazyTux | rww: I've done that, it dosent give me a sdX | 04:06 |
| Jordan_U | rww: I could pretty easily make a grub.cfg that creates a valid looking password prompt( I was the one who made the bootloader comment ) | 04:06 |
| rww | CrazyTux: is there anything relevant in dmesg? | 04:06 |

| aletheia8556 | can you help in a different way rww?? | 04:09 |
| Jordan_U | rip: In the end, when the attacker has physical access you need physical security | 04:10 |
| rww | aletheia8556: alright, in the terminal: "sudo X -configure; sudo cp xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf/" to generate a configuration file and put it in the right place, then "sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf" to edit it. | 04:10 |

| chu | This guy has his own PPA with updated versions of monodevelop available. How do I update my sources.list and download these newer updates? | 04:30 |
| Jordan_U | [Ex0r]: Would it be difficult for you to pastebin the complete output of "sudo apt-get install hello" ? | 04:30 |
| [Ex0r] | yes Jordan_U, I can't copy/[aste | 04:30 |
| [Ex0r] | it's on a completely different machine | 04:30 |
| Jordan_U | chu: Follow the instructions on the PPA's page | 04:30 |
| Jordan_U | [Ex0r]: Can you ssh into it? | 04:30 |
| chu | Apparantly there is an easy command for adding PPA's under 9.10 - But I'm not entirely sure what the PPA I'm trying to add is (it's a personal PPA, not an official project PPA...) | 04:31 |
| [Ex0r] | no | 04:31 |
| Jordan_U | chu: Where did you find out about this ppa? | 04:31 |
| yoasif | alright guys, ignore my question -- it was using my swap partition, i just had to turn the swap off, and now it is resizing | 04:32 |
| yoasif | thanks anyway guys :) | 04:32 |

| prageeth | what is php channel | 04:33 |
| CrazyTux | prageeth: ##php | 04:34 |
| chu | Thanks Jordan_U | 04:34 |
| themarmot | the php channel on irc.freenode is silly | 04:34 |
| Jordan_U | chu: np | 04:34 |
| themarmot | it's less about php and more about bashing | 04:34 |
| CrazyTux | themarmot: what gives you that idea? | 04:34 |
| themarmot | CrazyTux, i've spent some time there | 04:35 |
| CrazyTux | themarmot: each to his own I suppose. | 04:35 |
| cimon | Hi, anyone know how to get a listing of all modules available? | 04:35 |
| themarmot | occasionally you run across someone that knows a thing or two but it's mostly egocentric jr. devs who have no place giving advice | 04:35 |
| cimon | I have a crystal audio sound chip cs-4235-KQ | 04:36 |
| chu | Haha, the problem still remains in monodevelop 2.2 :( | 04:36 |
| CrazyTux | themarmot: You'd be surprised some of the people that are in the channel :) | 04:36 |
| cimon | cs-4236 works | 04:36 |
| cimon | but only the headphone, not the jack. | 04:37 |
| themarmot | CrazyTux, i wasn't saying that there aren't people in there who don't know a thing or two ... just that it's more an exception | 04:37 |
| yoasif | quick question -- im playing with my partitions right now... should i bother migrating my home to ext4 from ext3? | 04:37 |

| tehdave | Does anyone know how to get wine to play nicely with pulseaudio in 8.04? Wine version 1.1.35, pulseaudio 0.9.10 | 04:46 |
| Jordan_U | tehdave: Have you tried the latest packages from the wine repository? I think it's been fixed in wine since 8.04 | 04:47 |
| wowoto | yoasif: i once use xfs as the filesystem of ubuntu9.04 and archlinux，it performed very good ，and theres no need for you to run “fsck ” after a unexpect poweroff . | 04:48 |
| MgMt | how do you check how much battery life is left in cli? | 04:48 |
| blakkheim | MgMt: acpi | 04:48 |
| MgMt | blakkheim is that like the name for battery in linux? like eth0 is ethernet port? | 04:49 |
| yoasif | wowoto, really, so is there corruption? you should have to run fsck, you might not have to recover a journal, but if it doesn't even check it, how do you know whether there are any issues? | 04:49 |
| hexed | will fsck check/repair sectors on a non linux partition or should i leave that to windows scandisk? | 04:49 |
| tehdave | Jordan_U, Yep, running current release of Wine. Not sure if I somehow messed up my alsa drivers though...swapped to a different volume manager (padevchooser) to try and work around an issue that turned out to be trivial, and not sure how to go back to fixing it up...not sure if just removing padevchooser and the pulseaudio volume mixer might work... | 04:50 |
| blakkheim | MgMt: it is the command | 04:51 |
| MgMt | and there is no other command? | 04:51 |

| wowoto | yoasif: i now still not encountered with a corruption. i didn't check the disk as the OS work as usual ,maybe i should run fsck , if theres another unexpected poweroff ,i'll fsck it ,thx | 04:53 |

| frederick85 | hi i am in he middle of a dist-upgrade and it stopped working i have an annoying problem of what seems like broken packages and all sorts of things, can anyone help? | 05:03 |
| jschall | on ubuntu 9.10 karmic, my laptop screen won't come back after i close the lid or enter standby mode. ctrl-alt-f1 does not work in this case, either. It is an acer aspire 5100 with a radeon xpress 5100 | 05:04 |
| jschall | anyone have any ideas? kernel issue? video drivers? | 05:04 |
| Jordan_U | frederick85: Can you clarify what you mean by "stopped working" ? | 05:05 |
| frederick85 | jordan_u, typing sudo on the console says it can't find the binary anymore | 05:05 |
| frederick85 | jordan_u, says it can't find apt either | 05:05 |
| Jordan_U | frederick85: Which binary? | 05:05 |
| frederick85 | Jordan_U: well all the binary's | 05:06 |
| Jordan_U | frederick85: Is this after a reboot? | 05:06 |
| frederick85 | Jordan_U: yes i rebooted it, and it was unable to complete it afterwards, someone gave me advice a couple of hours ago to run sudo aptitude -f | 05:07 |
| cece | ?? | 05:07 |
| frederick85 | i ran aptitude and not nothing works at all except what is left in the memory | 05:07 |
| frederick85 | like this irc client | 05:07 |
| ubuntuuser | hi , I wanted to ask , does anyone know about hardware power supply ? what is true power ? | 05:07 |
| cece | ?? | 05:08 |
| mMezquitale | ubuntuuser, if you dont get a response here try #hardware | 05:08 |
| mezimezim | hi, someone knows something about GPS on Ubuntu? | 05:09 |
| crash2108 | Excuse me, kind sirs, | 05:09 |
| mMezquitale | !ask | crash2108 | 05:09 |
| ubottu | crash2108: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 05:09 |
| ubuntuuser | mMezquitale :eh , neverthough there's a channel on hardware , thanksmMezquitale | 05:09 |
| crash2108 | I somehow ended up with a 40 gig swap partition, | 05:09 |
| Jordan_U | frederick85: Odd, if you have a shell open, does "echo /bin/*" print anything? | 05:09 |
| crash2108 | And Why is it that everytime I give a simple Hello, people accuse me of asking to ask? #javascript too, | 05:10 |
| frederick85 | Jordan_U: yes it prints out a large list of folders | 05:10 |
| frederick85 | or binaries | 05:10 |
| mMezquitale | crash2108, this is ubuntu support, feel free to ask any questions, for anything else you can use the ubuntu off topic channel | 05:11 |
| Jordan_U | frederick85: What about "echo /usr/bin/apt*" ? | 05:11 |
| crash2108 | Anyway, Gparted won't allow me to resize the partitions. There's a keyring next to the swap partition. I tried "sudo gparted". I remember tehre was a special sudo command for apps but I forget it so I forget what it its. | 05:11 |
| frederick85 | Jordan_U: yes that is working also | 05:12 |
| DanielRM | crash2108: gksudo | 05:12 |
| badbrain | how can i check if my video card has the right drivers installed? | 05:12 |
| frederick85 | Jordan_U: again lists another set of binaries | 05:12 |
| Jordan_U | frederick85: And what output do you get from "sudo apt-get -f install" ? | 05:12 |
| wowoto | crash2108: try to use a liveCD/usb | 05:12 |
| mezimezim | basically my Ubuntu 9.10 can't communicate with my Magellan explorist 500 GPS | 05:12 |
| Jordan_U | frederick85: Assuming that apt-get was listed as one of those binaries | 05:12 |
| frederick85 | Jordan_U: bash: /usr/bin/sudo: No such file or directory | 05:13 |
| mMezquitale | crash2108, you can boot up to a live CD with gparted and try to work on your swap partition although I do not know what will happen if you touch that swap file with gparted | 05:13 |
| Jordan_U | frederick85: Ahh | 05:13 |
| DanielRM | crash2108: the keyring means it's currently mounted. | 05:13 |
| infid | how do you install ubuntu remix completely from a CD? | 05:14 |
| frederick85 | Jordan_U: don't understand how that could happen after what seemed just downloaing a few packages with aptitude | 05:14 |
| crash2108 | Funny thing is, guys. I actually am running on a LiveCD right now because I suspected that. | 05:14 |
| DanielRM | crash2108: if the issue is simply that you can't resize your swap partition (I don't know, I came in in the middle of the conversation) then unmounting it should allow you to resize it. | 05:14 |
| Jordan_U | frederick85: I assume that "echo /usr/bin/sud*" doesn't print "/usr/bin/sudo" ? | 05:14 |
| RubbberDucky | I have two hard drives. I installed ubuntu on one while the other was unplugged, it has windows. How do I get a screen that prompts me to boot either drive? Do I have to somehow diresct the bootloader to the other drive? | 05:14 |
| mMezquitale | badbrain, look at "Hardware Drivers" under administration, it'll tell you if youre using propietary drivers, if youre using propietary drivers try to download a 3D application, search in "add/remove" and see if youre able to run a 3D application | 05:14 |
| mezimezim | the GPS does not seem to be on /dev/ttyS0 or any other suggestion from Viking... any idea how to communicate with the GPS? | 05:14 |
| Jordan_U | frederick85: How did you do the dist-upgrade? | 05:14 |
| DanielRM | crash2108: the LiveCD automatically mounts swap partitions if it detects them. | 05:15 |
| mMezquitale | infid, you burn the ISO into the CD | 05:15 |
| frederick85 | Jordan_U: actually it does print out sudo | 05:15 |
| badbrain | ok ill check if im using proprietary drivers, but i just tried to run a video game and it didnt work so im assuming theres something wrong somewhere | 05:15 |
| crash2108 | Now how do I unmount them? | 05:15 |
| theadmin | Jordan_U: Why do you need to echo something in /usr/bin?! | 05:16 |
| bleepbloop | http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/linux/create-a-bootable-ubuntu-usb-flash-drive-the-easy-way/ is the code in that how-to applicable to windows 7? (scroll down) | 05:16 |
| Jordan_U | frederick85: What happens when you run "/usr/bin/sudo apt-get -f install"? | 05:16 |
| DanielRM | crash2108: you can do it from within gparted by right-clicking on it and choosing swapoff or unmount. | 05:16 |
| jtaji | mezimezim: that's USB? | 05:16 |
| mezimezim | jtaji, yes, it's USB | 05:16 |
| frederick85 | Jordan_U: no such file or directory still :'( | 05:16 |
| theadmin | crash2108: To unmount whatever, just "sudo umount /path/to/mount/point" | 05:17 |
| jtaji | mezimezim: should be /dev/ttysUSB0 | 05:17 |
| jtaji | mezimezim: should be /dev/ttyUSB0 | 05:17 |
| mMezquitale | RubbberDucky, first make the drive that you have windows on as Master, then take the other drive you installed linux on and set it as slave, you will only be able to boot up to windows, the next step is to attempt to install grub2 but since you already installed linux on another hard drive this is going to be tricky but not impossible, youre going to have to fiddle with it or just reinstall | 05:17 |
| DanielRM | theadmin: doesn't work for swap. | 05:17 |
| Jordan_U | theadmin: He was saying that new applications couldn't be started, using shell expansion allows him to check if files exist without starting a new process ( though it now seems that isn't probably isn't really required ) | 05:17 |
| badbrain | if im using proprietary drivers for my video card and something is wrong with my video, do i need to find out what they are and update them or something myself? | 05:17 |
| DanielRM | theadmin: you have to use swapoff if you're in the shell trying to unmount a swap partition. | 05:17 |
| theadmin | DanieIRM: Oopsie. sorry, I missed a part of conversation. | 05:17 |
| DanielRM | theadmin: heh, I missed the entire first half so it's OK. :P | 05:18 |
| Jordan_U | frederick85: How did you do the dist-upgrade? | 05:18 |
| gigasoft | is there any anti-virus for Ubuntu ? | 05:18 |
| Jordan_U | !virus | gigasoft | 05:18 |
| ubottu | gigasoft: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 05:18 |
| RubbberDucky | mMezquitale Thanks, bleh I wish it had been plugged in! | 05:18 |
| theadmin | gigasoft: There are no viruses for Ubuntu :D | 05:18 |
| DanielRM | gigasoft: there's clamav, which has a GUI called clamtk, but there's not really much point. | 05:18 |
| mMezquitale | badbrain, it would help if you post the type of video card that you have and what you are unable to do with it | 05:19 |
| badbrain | how do i find out what it is? its inside my laptop so i cant really look at it | 05:19 |
| gigasoft | ok thank you alla :) | 05:19 |
| mezimezim | jtaji: it does not work when I specify that to Viking | 05:19 |
| FloodBot1 | NOTICE - The above was an exploit attempt that may have disconnected some users. Please ignore it, or type « /msg ubottu exploit » for more information. | 05:19 |
| gigasoft | ok thank you all :) | 05:19 |
| jtaji | mezimezim: then it must not look like a simple serial port | 05:19 |
| mezimezim | as for GPSBABEL, I am not sure about the exact command | 05:20 |
| jtaji | mezimezim: my garmin auto mounts as a disk | 05:20 |
| mMezquitale | RubbberDucky, I was always too afraid to try linux until I tried it with another hard drive, except I was adventerous enough to leave the hard drive with windows on my machine, eventually I got fed up with the IDE drive and just set up another partition in my SATA drive for linux---never looked back ever since | 05:20 |
| mezimezim | how could I try & mount it? | 05:20 |
| theadmin | Can I somehow make GPartED format stuff into NTFS? | 05:20 |
| === General is now known as Guest33677 | ||
| DanielRM | theadmin: yes, if you have the NTFS drivers installed. | 05:21 |
| jtaji | mezimezim: first step, right after you plug it in, type 'dmesg' and see what it says about it | 05:21 |
| frederick85 | Jordan_U: what happened is I forgot to update my apt sources before doing it and add all the sources required, when i did dist-upgrade it worked but after installing all the packages it didn't clean up after itself and didn't reboot , then i started the computer using the old kernel still installed because the new one wouldn't work and my update manager wouldn't work at all so I tried many ways to fix it with some guy on here | 05:21 |
| frederick85 | Jordan_U: aptitude -f sorry | 05:21 |
| theadmin | DanieIRM: well I got ntfs-3g cause ntfs partitions are mounted | 05:21 |
| DanielRM | theadmin: ntfs-3g or similar and also ntfsprogs wouldn't go amiss. | 05:21 |
| mMezquitale | badbrain, looking up your manufacturer and model type usually helps you find the spec in google.com | 05:21 |
| angel12 | hey guys, how do i make grub boot windows by default instead of linux? | 05:21 |
| frederick85 | Jordan_U: i went to sleep while it was downloading packages and came back and it seems to have broken everything further | 05:21 |
| jtaji | mezimezim: also maybe search google for linux + the model name to see if it is even expected to work | 05:21 |
| badbrain | ok thanks for being dumb | 05:21 |
| DanielRM | theadmin: ah, it's ntfsprogs which is necessary. | 05:21 |
| RubbberDucky | mMezquitale, I wish I could do that but I simply dont have the space. I should order another drive... 750gigs cant be too expensive nowadays.. | 05:21 |
| Jordan_U | frederick85: Modifying your sources.list manually is not the proper way to upgrade | 05:21 |
| badbrain | i mean thanks and sorry : D | 05:21 |
| Jordan_U | !upgrade | frederick85 | 05:22 |
| ubottu | frederick85: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 05:22 |
| DanielRM | theadmin: so installing that should do the trick. | 05:22 |
| theadmin | Thanks, DanieIRM | 05:22 |
| mezimezim | there's tons of stuff showing up when I do dmesg | 05:22 |
| Hilikus | is there a way to synthetically trigger a cron job? just to test it | 05:22 |
| mezimezim | yes, according to GPSBabel documentation, this particular GPS is supposed to be supported | 05:22 |
| jtaji | mezimezim: you're looking at the last lines right after you plug it in | 05:22 |
| jtaji | mezimezim: supported to do what? | 05:23 |
| frederick85 | Jordan_U: i didn't modify it manually i used the software sources program | 05:23 |
| jschall | i'm having suspend/resume issues on my laptop, it seemed to work with previous versions of ubuntu. how can i go about troubleshooting this? | 05:23 |
| mMezquitale | RubbberDucky, if you have 2 drives just reinstall, shouldt be too much of a hassle, leave your windows drive as it is, in the other drive create a swap file of 1 gig, no more unless you have little memory, and about 5 gigs for "/" and the rest for "/home" should suffice | 05:23 |
| theadmin | jschall: What exactly are the issues? | 05:24 |
| mezimezim | jtaji: I think you are on to something with dmesg | 05:24 |
| frederick85 | Jordan_U: should i try rebooting and see if that helps? | 05:24 |
| mMezquitale | RubbberDucky, or since it's a desktop you can just install everything in "/", 7 gigs should about cover it | 05:24 |
| Jordan_U | frederick85: Were you trying to upgrade from one version of Ubuntu to another? If you needed to use dist-upgrade after adding a repository that repository is probably broken | 05:24 |
| jschall | theadmin: when i resume, my screen never comes on. its not just the backlight, the screen is blank | 05:24 |
| jtaji | mezimezim: if you want to pastebin it I can take a look | 05:24 |
| jtaji | !paste | mezimezim | 05:24 |
| ubottu | mezimezim: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://ubuntu.pastebin.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 | 05:24 |
| jschall | theadmin: i can't press ctrl-alt-f1 or anything either | 05:24 |
| mezimezim | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m43d1aa16 | 05:25 |
| theadmin | jschall: Hm. I had such problems with 9.04, but I'm fine with 9.10... | 05:25 |
| Jordan_U | frederick85: It would help if you could explain exactly what you did between when your system was completely working and now | 05:25 |
| jtaji | mezimezim: yep, not even enumerating | 05:25 |
| jschall | theadmin: does not accept ssh connections. | 05:25 |
| crash2108 | Thank you gentlemans. | 05:25 |
| theadmin | jschall: Who/what does not? And if ssh is the problem, I can't help, I've no idea how this stuff works | 05:26 |
| jtaji | mezimezim: I'm not familiar with that error.... is that on a hub or a port on the computer? | 05:26 |
| frederick85 | Jordan_U: i ran apritude -f selected apply for resolution | 05:26 |
| mezimezim | seems like the device is too old! it says there something about needing low speed USB device | 05:26 |
| mMezquitale | crash2108, also get into the habit of using the first letters of someone nick and then hit tab | 05:26 |
| frederick85 | Jordan_U: apply resolution rather | 05:26 |
| DanielRM | crash2108: all worked? | 05:26 |
| jschall | theadmin: the laptop doesn't accept ssh connections after failing to resume | 05:26 |
| Jordan_U | frederick85: Why did you run aptitude -f in the first place? | 05:26 |
| jschall | theadmin: so it obviously isn't just the screen | 05:27 |
| jtaji | mezimezim: it means it is seeing the gps as a low speed device, which is ok | 05:27 |
| frederick85 | Jordan_U: dpkg had corrupted cache apparantly | 05:27 |
| mezimezim | it did not work with the original Windows program either (on real windows, not Wine) | 05:27 |
| mMezquitale | jschall, what is the problem you are experiencing with ssh? | 05:27 |
| crash2108 | Applying pending operations no | 05:27 |
| RubbberDucky | mMezquitale I need another drive for backup anyway. I think I will figure it out after I get one. Thanks anyway! | 05:27 |

| jschall | mMezquitale: no problem with ssh, i'm trying to troubleshoot a laptop that won't resume from standby | 05:27 |
| jschall | theadmin: suspend to ram | 05:27 |
| jtaji | mezimezim: yeah, sounds like it's bad or buggy | 05:27 |
| mMezquitale | jschall, that sounds like something for the forums or launchpad | 05:28 |
| theadmin | jschall: Hrm, then I have no idea... maybe it's got some problem with reading the suspend data from RAM, but I can't tell any further. | 05:28 |
| badbrain | ok.. my graphics card is "ATI mobility radeon HD 3470" and i have proprietary drivers installed, usually no problems with anything but when i try and run a particular game, its all chunky and i cant see anything properly and then it crashes... do i need to get different drivers? | 05:28 |

| Jordan_U | frederick85: Do any commands other than sudo seem to be having problems? | 05:28 |
| mezimezim | on the magellan website, it is listed in the "obsolote products" categories, but I bought it today!! | 05:28 |
| mezimezim | now wonder they had such a big discount | 05:29 |
| frederick85 | Jordan_U: yes many binaries don't seem to be working, like many programs in the applications menu, it's probably all of them but i'm not sure | 05:29 |
| mezimezim | thanks for your help jtaji! | 05:29 |
| Jordan_U | frederick85: Do you have a LiveCD available in case you can't boot after shutting down? | 05:29 |
| frederick85 | Jordan_U: i'm not sure, i might have to get one from somebody otherwise | 05:30 |
| sunil2 | in my pc there are many 9.04 versions installed.Now i want to delete all those and i re-install again. can you tell me the procedure | 05:30 |
| mMezquitale | badbrain, looks like it's a bug, you might want to check with launchpad, you can try the channel again, maybe the forums but by all means, create a bug report if no one will help you, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/254908 | 05:31 |
| frederick85 | Jordan_U: i'm going to try it and see what happens it's all too messy and seems unfixable | 05:31 |
| badbrain | mMezquitale: ok thanks, but just a note that one other game i try and run, which the wine page said is tested and working, also crashes as soon as i try and run it.. is this the same thing? | 05:32 |
| sunil2 | in my pc there are many 9.04 versions installed.Now i want to delete all those and i re-install again. can you tell me the procedure | 05:32 |
| mMezquitale | badbrain, now youre bringing up wine, that is an entirely different story, first try with native apps using "add/remove" like I told you before, if those work then the issue is with an application using wine | 05:33 |
| mMezquitale | sunil, the 9.04 versions are just kernels, you want to know in what partition you have 9.04 and delete that partition, if you have windows installed I highly recommend your partition your hard drdive using gparted live cd first | 05:34 |
| badbrain | ok nope when i try and run nexiuz, it wont go either... so this is a graphics problem | 05:35 |
| sunil | sunil2, usually created when there is new version of kernel that got updated, try if sudo apt-get autoclean; sudo apt-get autoremove helps | 05:36 |
| sunil | mMezquitale, its sunil2, and not me ;-) | 05:37 |
| AcBush | Can someone help me make my 2nd hard drive (named Extra HD) auto mount on startup? | 05:37 |
| mMezquitale | sunil, my mistake LoL | 05:37 |
| mMezquitale | sunil2, , the 9.04 versions are just kernels, you want to know in what partition you have 9.04 and delete that partition, if you have windows installed I highly recommend your partition your hard drdive using gparted live cd first | 05:37 |
| sunil | AcBush, you can add an entry in fstab to mount that drive | 05:37 |
| soreau | AcBush: You probably want to add an entry in /etc/fstab for it | 05:38 |
| sunil2 | besides 9.04 i'm having XP also. i want to re-install it once again. how to delete existing one??? | 05:38 |
| sunil | sunil2, if you wnat to reinstall everything ... start with installing windows | 05:39 |
| mMezquitale | sunil2, you want remove xp as well? | 05:39 |
| sunil | mMezquitale, go ahead :) | 05:39 |
| chibihogoshino | how would i go about getting the modem to work in my laptop in karmic ? | 05:39 |
| mMezquitale | chibihogoshino, can you please be more specific? do you have a dsl modem or dial up modem? | 05:40 |
| sunil2 | no i don't want to remove xp. | 05:40 |
| sunil2 | i just wanted to delete only all 9.04 | 05:40 |
| chibihogoshino | laptops have dsl modems in them ? | 05:40 |
| chibihogoshino | its a internal modem in a lenovo | 05:40 |
| chibihogoshino | t61 | 05:40 |

| sunil2 | yes you are correct | 05:41 |
| TheEpitome | Anyone else have the new 9.10 flickering issue in flash movies? | 05:41 |
| mMezquitale | sunil2, use paste bin to post the output of "sudo fdisk -l" | 05:41 |
| TheEpitome | Is this the place for active bug discussion? | 05:42 |
| Jordan_U | TheEpitome: Does the flickering go away if you disable compiz? | 05:42 |
| mMezquitale | TheEpitome, yes, I had to raise the amount of memory for my video card in the BIOS settings, justin.tv played a lot better on my laptop on my laptop for some reason until I went into my BIOS and changed a setting for video memory | 05:42 |
| TheEpitome | no. | 05:43 |
| sunil2 | i got "Partition table entries are not in disk order" after "sudo fdisk -l" | 05:43 |
| mMezquitale | TheEpitome, this is ubuntu channel's ubuntu support, for active bug discussion use launchpad | 05:43 |
| TheEpitome | its not a memory issue, i can fullscreen it and it works fine. | 05:43 |
| chibihogoshino | im assuming that the modem is a softmodem. | 05:43 |
| badbrain | ok.. games with 3d graphics are crashing.. i have an ATI radeon hd 3470 graphics card with proprietary drivers installed.... does this mean i need to update my drivers? | 05:44 |

| Jordan_U | TheEpitome: What graphics card? | 05:45 |
| TheEpitome | I don't think its the same issue, it's not choppy or anything, and the performance is good, it just flickers a lot | 05:46 |
| TheEpitome | it happens on both my nvidia on my desktop and intel mobile 4 on my laptop | 05:46 |
| mMezquitale | TheEpitome, it must be a video card issue then, you might want to post the specs of your video card, if anyone knows the answer they will surely reply | 05:46 |

| zzzxzzz | hi guys i can download ubuntu direct in my laptop without cd? | 06:03 |
| mMezquitale | skooch, usually I just go to youtube.com, clink on a link that sends me to the adobe website, I download it and install it, works all the time, you can also use "add/remove" and search for flash, youll get plenty of hits | 06:03 |
| mMezquitale | zzzxzzz, not exactly but you can install wubi if youre using windows | 06:03 |
| zzzxzzz | thanks | 06:04 |
| kz_ | hi all there | 06:04 |
| sunil2 | after using live gparted CD how to proceed??? | 06:04 |
| Jordan_U | sunil2: Install Ubuntu in the free space | 06:05 |
| bgjsl | hi | 06:05 |
| Jordan_U | sunil2: You should know that you won't be able to boot ( even windows ) untill you re-install Ubuntu | 06:05 |
| bgjsl | some question I have | 06:05 |
| mMezquitale | sunil2, are you boot up into gparted you remove sda8, sda9,sda10, and sda11---depending on what you want to do, you can reuse those partitions or you can completely delete them and create new ones, remember---you need a swap partition, and a partition for "/", everything else is optional | 06:06 |
| sunil2 | if i do so all existing 9.04 versions are deleted. am i correct? | 06:06 |
| bgjsl | some question I have | 06:06 |
| Jordan_U | !ask | bgjsl | 06:07 |
| ubottu | bgjsl: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 06:07 |
| bgjsl | sunil2 | 06:07 |
| bgjsl | 9.04 is better than 9,10 | 06:07 |
| zzzxzzz | in my laptop is only ubuntu linux, but now i want to clear and install windows then linux, i tryed many times but no success, so i can't reinstall the windows | 06:07 |
| mMezquitale | sunil2, if you remove sda8, sda9, sda10, and sda11 you will completely remove linux from your hard drive, you wont be able to boot to windows until you either reinstall linux or fix your master boot record | 06:07 |
| sunil2 | how to enter into live gparted CD??? | 06:08 |
| munky | #amsn | 06:09 |
| Jordan_U | sunil2: Just boot from the Ubuntu install CD | 06:09 |
| mMezquitale | zzzxzzz, you need to use GPARTED, you need to erase all partitions first---you will lose all data--then create a partition for windows, then I suggest you create an extended partition and use all space with the extended partition, then create a swap and "/" partition for linux | 06:09 |
| sunil2 | ok. shall i procedd now? | 06:09 |
| Jordan_U | mMezquitale: He doesn't want to remove windows | 06:10 |
| bgjsl | jordan_U | 06:10 |
| mMezquitale | sunil2, boot into the ubuntu install CD, dont select to install ubuntu only to boot up | 06:10 |
| bgjsl | jordan_U | 06:11 |
| Jordan_U | bgjsl: Yes? | 06:11 |
| mMezquitale | Jordan_U, precisely, mention that windows will get erased if you get rid of the windows partition | 06:11 |

| mMezquitale | sunil2, yes, use "sudo gparted" fo fire up gparted | 06:31 |
| Faithful | does xorg actually create a real xorg.conf file when it runs... or is it possible to see the actual conf it is using | 06:31 |
| theadmin | Faithful: It creates it, in /etc/X11, as far as I know | 06:31 |
| Faithful | Hmmm... | 06:31 |
| Jordan_U | Faithful: No, Xorg is configured dynamically when there is no Xorg.conf | 06:32 |
| Jordan_U | Faithful: You can get some information about the automatic configuration from /var/log/xorg.0.log | 06:32 |
| Faithful | Jordan_U, thanks... | 06:33 |
| Jordan_U | Faithful: np | 06:33 |
| tos_ | is there an Ubuntu package that can do GUI user management to 'set quotas, restrict apps, set limitations, # of processes, etc....' | 06:33 |
| Faithful | Jordan_U, yup, what I was looking for. | 06:34 |
| Tesssa | upgraded 9.4 to 9.10.my sound card works ok but in 9.4 could bring up the login window and access sound files for,login.logout and other sounds but in 9.10 they are missing why and how to get them back | 06:34 |
| lussier | hi | 06:35 |
| Jordan_U | Tesssa: Upstream Gnome completely rewrote GDM and haven't written the configuratin app yet | 06:35 |
| Tesssa | an old saying if it works don't fix it | 06:35 |
| tos_ | how can i completely remove kde and install gnome? | 06:36 |
| Jordan_U | !puregnome | tos_ | 06:36 |
| ubottu | tos_: If you want to remove all !KDE packages, type « sudo apt-get remove kdelibs4c2 kdelibs5-data && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » into a !terminal | 06:36 |
| Tesssa | so they will sort it out then for 10.4 | 06:36 |
| Jordan_U | Tesssa: Hopefully | 06:36 |
| tos_ | ok and that will remove all of the extras and updates that kde added? | 06:37 |
| Jordan_U | tos_: Yes | 06:37 |
| tos_ | Thanks Jordan | 06:37 |
| Jordan_U | tos_: np | 06:37 |
| tos_ | gdm is less memory usage right? | 06:37 |
| tos_ | than kde | 06:37 |
| theadmin | tos_: Yeah, GNOME uses less.\ | 06:38 |
| tos_ | cool | 06:38 |
| Tesssa | thanks Jordan | 06:38 |
| tos_ | me deleting kde....... | 06:38 |
| theadmin | tos_: XFCE uses even less though :D | 06:38 |
| tos_ | xfce??! | 06:38 |
| theadmin | tos_: Yeah. | 06:38 |
| tos_ | i need that then | 06:38 |
| tos_ | 312mb ram | 06:38 |
| Tesssa | i use xubuntu and its very good | 06:38 |
| theadmin | tos: Okay, just replace the "ubuntu-desktop" part with "xubuntu-desktop" | 06:39 |
| kinja-sheep | tos_: XFCE! | 06:39 |
| kinja-sheep | tos_: Err, I mean XDM! | 06:39 |
| tos_ | xubuntu-desktop is xfce? | 06:39 |
| Tesssa | yep | 06:39 |
| tos_ | nice | 06:39 |
| kinja-sheep | tos_: lubuntu-desktop! | 06:39 |
| tos_ | ? | 06:40 |
| tos_ | confusing the hell out of me | 06:40 |
| tos_ | lol | 06:40 |
| Jordan_U | tos_: There are other options that are signifigantly lighter than XFCE but are harder to learn | 06:40 |
| The-Protagonist_ | does anyone know how to switch a network card from eth0 to wifi0/wlan0...? | 06:40 |
| The-Protagonist_ | i belive that there is a command for this... | 06:40 |
| Tesssa | ah tried lubuntu and the website advises going to fedora lor it | 06:40 |
| theadmin | Jordan_U: Fluxbox, enlightment? Those are... just weird. | 06:41 |
| neezer | anyone know anything about BSD games? specifically cribbage/ | 06:41 |
| jangaj | The-Protagonist_-> you have to fiddle with the udev rules in /etc/udev/rules.d/ | 06:41 |
| neezer | I've been trying to play it in my terminal, and I keep getting stuck at a certain point in starting a game. | 06:41 |
| The-Protagonist_ | thanks jangaj for the tip | 06:41 |
| scottj | What's the best console web browser these days? | 06:42 |
| jangaj | scottj links | 06:43 |
| theadmin | scottj: He means lynx, most likely | 06:46 |
| === elev_ is now known as zippert | ||
| arghh2d2 | elinks | 06:48 |
| arghh2d2 | lynx sucks | 06:48 |
| theadmin | arghh2d2: Well, I'm not much into console stuff. | 06:48 |
| jangaj | hey when i say links i meant links not lynx, lynx are the old stuff | 06:48 |
| arghh2d2 | links-g is better than elinks but elinks is better than links without the graphics...imo | 06:49 |
| sunil2 | I opened /dev/sda-Gparted using “sudo gparted" . Now how to delete sda8-sda11??? | 06:49 |
| theadmin | sunil, just use the delete option from right click menu | 06:50 |
| jangaj | arghh2d2-> there is links maybe different from elinks | 06:50 |
| arghh2d2 | theadmin: 90% of the apps i use are console | 06:50 |
| Draggin | Good morning. Could anyone tell me if there's any way of installing Ubuntu onto an existing system (overwrite install) without reformatting the partitions? I want to leave them intact (and especially my /home partition) to save myself a lot of restore time... | 06:50 |
| arghh2d2 | jangaj: yeah, elinks is different than links and links-g is different than links | 06:51 |
| bleepbloop | buh | 06:51 |
| jangaj | Draggin-> if your /home is separate, you can re-install without wiping and creating a new partitions.. | 06:51 |
| sunil2 | i got "unable to delete /dev/sda8! Please unmount any logical partitions having a number higher than 8" | 06:52 |
| Draggin | jangaj, but it always takes me through the partitioning bit in the installation, after which it always reformats the partitions, does it not? | 06:52 |
| theadmin | sunil2: Choose them all, from 8 to 11, and then unmount. | 06:52 |
| jangaj | Draggin-> you may have to reformat the existing / partitions but no need to format /home | 06:52 |
| theadmin | Draggin: No, it only formats it if you request so... well, you need to specify stuff manually. | 06:53 |
| Draggin | jangaj, theadmin - how do I inform the installer that I want to install the OS to the existing partitions and keep their configuration intact without reformatting them? | 06:53 |
| theadmin | Draggin: In the installer, on the partitioning screen, just uncheck "format" in the properties of needed partition | 06:53 |
| reeniginEesreveR | is there any utility which can tell me information about a particular .so file? like its version number etc etc | 06:53 |
| jangaj | Draggin-> select the existing partition to install, leave the /home separate and dont reformat /home but click okay to reformat the others | 06:54 |
| bleepbloop | how can I make my usb drive bootable, using windows 7? ithought i could with diskpart but it doesnt seem like i can :-/ | 06:54 |
| arghh2d2 | Draggin: in other words, pay very close attention to the partitioning phase of the install | 06:54 |
| sunil2 | how to unmount sda8-sda11??? | 06:54 |
| Draggin | theadmin... For real... it's that simple...? Now I feel slightly stupid :) Does this apply to the alternative installation disc as well? | 06:54 |
| jangaj | Draggin-> yes it also applies to alternate installs | 06:55 |
| theadmin | Draggin: oh, don't know about this, cause I never used those | 06:55 |
| Draggin | jangaj, theadmin - one other question... After a full installation, can I change the partition type (from ext3 to ext4 for example) in gparted or something similar without losing data? | 06:55 |
| jangaj | Draggin-> same cfdisk behind those | 06:55 |
| Draggin | jangaj - sorry? | 06:56 |
| jangaj | Draggin-> i dont know about ext4 yet | 06:56 |
| firekool | My network connection on ubuntu drops randomly to where I have to restart the computer. | 06:56 |
| theadmin | Draggin: Impossible, those are different filesystems, you can only change them by formatting. | 06:56 |
| Draggin | jangaj - thank you. Did you see my previous question though? About the possibility of not formatting partitions when using the alternative installation disc? | 06:57 |
| jangaj | Draggin-> during repartitioning i believe it uses cfdisk or fdisk in the background as the command | 06:57 |
| theadmin | Draggin: He said it's possible | 06:57 |
| jangaj | Draggin-> yes it also applies to alternate installs | 06:57 |
| Hilikus | how can i find all files in my system thta belong to a specific group? | 06:57 |
| Draggin | theadmin, okay thanks :) Any big reasons to consider ext4 though? | 06:57 |
| theadmin | Hilikus: ...Group? | 06:57 |
| Draggin | jangaj, theadmin - awesome. Thanks | 06:58 |
| jangaj | yw | 06:58 |
| theadmin | Draggin: It's faster, a lot, and can manage bigger partitions and files. | 06:58 |
| Hilikus | theadmin: all files have an owner and group | 06:58 |
| sunil2 | how to unmount sda8-sda11 at a time??? | 06:58 |
| Draggin | theadmin... Hmmm... Now I'm tempted... But that'll be so much work... Maybe some other day | 06:58 |
| jangaj | sunil-> you can only umount one at a time, but you can have a for loop to do it one by one | 06:58 |
| Draggin | Thanks guys - let me go and try to fix my mucked up system... I'll probably be back in here soon :) | 06:59 |
| Draggin | Ciao! | 07:00 |
| linuxuz3r | where new year party at? | 07:02 |

| firekool | I am trying to think of a reason why my linux system drops connection randomly does anyone have any idea? | 07:05 |

| wowoto | Tesssa: check the md5 before burnning into the cd | 07:06 |
| Tesssa | and how do i do that | 07:06 |
| wowoto | Tesssa: or,you can install by live USB | 07:06 |
| theadmin | Tesssa: md5sum filename? | 07:06 |
| Tesssa | md5sum you have lost me | 07:07 |

| bleepbloop | where can i download old versions of ubuntu netbook remix from? | 07:15 |
| APERSON | bleepbloop, should be available from releases.ubuntu.com | 07:15 |
| bleepbloop | do you know if UNR 9.04 was drastically lesser in quality than 9.10? | 07:16 |
| APERSON | bleepbloop, they should be greater in quality the higher the version numbers :) | 07:17 |
| ubupenna | I have a dilemma. I just upgraded (using the update manager in Ubuntu 9.04) to Ubuntu 9.10. My sound card no longer works, and performance is ridiculously slow. I have a Windows XP partition that I cannot harm or touch that Ubuntu is next to. How do I go about doing a fresh install of Ubuntu without touching Windows? | 07:17 |
| APERSON | ubuntulog, run an installer from a livecd/usb | 07:18 |
| theadmin | Excuse me, of course... I just looked at packages.ubuntu.com and saw Lucid packages o_O so it's in development? | 07:18 |
| APERSON | ubupenna, * | 07:18 |
| redDEADresolve | i install ubuntu minimal and wasn | 07:18 |
| booh | theadmin: yes, /join #ubuntu+1 | 07:18 |
| bleepbloop | APERSON: I assumed that, but I'm having a lot of trouble making my USB stick bootable with 9.10, and found a guide for installing the .img of 9.04, so i assumed i could just put 9.04 on and upgrade from there? | 07:18 |
| redDEADresolve | t having a problem until i realized my extract here right click in nautilus is missing. any help? | 07:18 |
| theadmin | booh: Meh, just asked. Cool. | 07:18 |
| booh | bleepbloop: that will work | 07:18 |
| APERSON | bleepbloop, use unetbooting to make a bootable usb stick | 07:19 |
| bleepbloop | APERSON: Ive tried that | 07:19 |
| APERSON | bleepbloop, or the official usb startup creator ubuntu provides | 07:19 |
| ozzloy | http://www.arakhne.org/ricoh/index.html http://pastebin.com/db821d9d anyone know what compat_ioctl errors mean? or how to fix them? | 07:19 |
| bleepbloop | APERSON: i dont have any other ubuntu systems | 07:19 |
| APERSON | bleepbloop, run a live cd, you can create a usb image from there | 07:19 |
| bleepbloop | APERSON: I don't have a cd drive that can burn dvds, so I'm kind of limited to using the USB | 07:20 |
| nomad77 | bleepbloop: use syslinux in repos? only makes it bootable doesnt install an image,files to usb-stick | 07:20 |
| djharby | what about making it persistent install? | 07:20 |
| APERSON | bleepbloop, you don't need a dvd afaik, but here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1288604 | 07:21 |

| APERSON | bleepbloop, that's how I make my bootable flash drives | 07:22 |
| bleepbloop | APERSON: awesome, thanks! I'll look it over | 07:22 |
| booh | bleepbloop: why not do a regular install from flash drive? | 07:22 |
| heoa | How can I specify default starting programs? | 07:22 |
| booh | heoa: servers or desktops? | 07:22 |
| bleepbloop | booh: what do you mean by regular install? | 07:22 |
| heoa | I mean when I am in Lynx, it start up ugly GUI thing, but I want console | 07:22 |
| heoa | booh: server | 07:23 |
| djharby | where are you having the problem? | 07:23 |
| booh | bleepbloop: something that is not a 'persistent liveusb install' | 07:23 |
| booh | heoa: update-rc.d | 07:23 |
| booh | heoa: if there is not startup script, write one, or use rc.local | 07:23 |
| wastrel | it's past my bed time | 07:23 |
| bleepbloop | booh: I think i tried that and ran into problems too, I was also under the impression that pendrive is only for the desktop versions? | 07:24 |
| redDEADresolve | legend2440, yes i do i can unzip, untar and tar zip and rar the right click extract here ption is missing | 07:24 |
| wastrel | booh: you want to start with no GUI? | 07:24 |

| wowoto | bleepbloop: in fact , you can do it in these way : extract the iso ,then ,copy all the files to the usb,reboot and boot from USB | 07:31 |
| bleepbloop | booh: no, a flash drive | 07:31 |
| mostafa_ | can anyone name a good antiproxy in ubuntu? | 07:31 |
| bleepbloop | booh: and windows 7 came on the netbook | 07:32 |

| jussi01 | bleepbloop: on the usb page from the bot, there is a utility to help you make the stick from windows | 07:32 |
| bgjsl | maybe any body there knows how to run a game using vbox in ubuntu ...right??? | 07:32 |

| booh | mostafa_: an ssh reverse proxy works for most things | 07:32 |
| unop | !webmin | nikre | 07:33 |
| ubottu | nikre: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. | 07:33 |
| bleepbloop | jussi01: those guides always seem to skimp on the formatting of the flash drive though , which is where im getting tripped up i am pretty sure | 07:33 |
| booh | bgjsl: do not run games in virtualbox | 07:33 |
| booh | bgjsl: i mean, performance is horrible | 07:33 |
| redDEADresolve | bleepbloop, format it to fat32, use unetbootin to put an iso of ubuntu 9.10 on the disk | 07:33 |
| booh | nikre: try cPanel | 07:33 |
| jussi01 | bleepbloop: what redDEADresolve said ;) | 07:33 |
| bleepbloop | an optical disk? | 07:34 |
| booh | nikre: or try lxlabs kloxo, or ebox... but don't use Plesk | 07:34 |
| redDEADresolve | bleepbloop, if you want unr after install sudo apt-get install ubuntu-netbook-remix in a terminal | 07:34 |
| bleepbloop | redDEADresolve: sorry, but I'm a super noob so that didnt really make much sense to me :[ | 07:35 |
| redDEADresolve | bleepbloop, what was hard about format the disk to fat32 AND use unetbootin to put ubuntu 9.10 on your usb drive??? | 07:35 |
| ProgressivPirate | I plan on building a media center based on ubuntu. What's a good app to run as a frontend to launch all my apps: xbmc, emulators, firefox,music | 07:35 |
| booh | redDEADresolve: unetbootin will format it for you | 07:36 |
| bleepbloop | redDEADresolve: nothing, I've exactly that numerous times, but it doesn't seem to work | 07:36 |
| redDEADresolve | booh, you are right. | 07:36 |
| bleepbloop | I've done* | 07:36 |
| redDEADresolve | bleepbloop, then IT IS YOUR DRIVE | 07:36 |
| booh | i had many problems with unetbootin and thought it was my drive | 07:36 |
| booh | it wasn't | 07:37 |
| bleepbloop | ive lurked forums where people were able to boot from my exact drive | 07:37 |
| booh | bleepbloop: have you tried the builtin usb-creator? | 07:37 |
| bleepbloop | i may be a noob but i know how to use google :-P | 07:37 |
| redDEADresolve | bleepbloop, maybe its a sign then. | 07:37 |
| bleepbloop | i dont have any other computers running ubuntu | 07:37 |
| bleepbloop | yeah | 07:38 |
| bleepbloop | i guess i should go get another stick | 07:38 |

| evfire | skyllo, copying it where? | 10:17 |

| evfire | or click "Install" and choose the theme tar.gz, it's equivalent.. | 10:22 |
| titancompu | I have no users on a new system..but it took all the other settings. | 10:22 |

| paulus68 | BlueEagl1: are you here my friend? | 10:24 |
| iceroot | titancompu: i thin its faster to reinstall instead of finding out how to create correct /etc/shadow entrys | 10:24 |

| titancompu | iceroot: I"m on my PC now. I just wanted to revive life into this old iBook for my daughter to play games with | 10:31 |
| bullgard | iceroot: I sometimes use htop. I usually prefer top because I am used to use it. hehe | 10:31 |
| iceroot | bullgard: yes same here but sometimes htop is "nicer" especially if you want to edit nice-values and so on | 10:32 |
| iceroot | titancompu: yeah, np, just kidding | 10:32 |
| lumee | why a laptop battery have a lot of connects if it only would need only 2 for + and - ? | 10:32 |
| titancompu | iceroot:I'm gonna try booting into the recovery console and adding a user. Apparently some users in the forums had luck with that | 10:33 |

| josh_ | Hi | 10:35 |
| josh_ | Anyone here who can help me? | 10:35 |
| erUSUL | !ask | 10:35 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 10:35 |
| myownserver | Can anyone here correctly configure and setup sendmail on ubnutu? | 10:36 |
| _2 | guiscard also of note, dpkg -l | less will list all packages installed/removed but still configured/partly installed/installed but not configured. | 10:37 |
| erUSUL | !mta | myownserver | 10:37 |
| ubottu | myownserver: A Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) is the server software that sends and queues mail. The default MTA (and !MDA) on Ubuntu is !postfix ("exim" is also officially supported). See also !MailServer and !MUA | 10:37 |
| josh_ | Ok. I just installed Ubuntu, and one of the programs I need requires OpenGL which is installed by the graphics driver. But no graphics driver was installed for me, as far as I know. Is it possible to install a windows Graphics driver, or is there another way to get OpenGL to work? | 10:37 |
| erUSUL | josh_: which graphic card do you have ? | 10:37 |
| myownserver | Ok, so can you configure exim to send/recieve emails? | 10:37 |
| _2 | guiscard and use the search function of less to simplify things :) | 10:37 |
| _2 | man less | 10:38 |
| titancompu | iceroot: Wow. This is really interesting. The regular live CD now won't even login for the live cd user. | 10:38 |
| myownserver | Can anyone here correctly configure and setup exim on ubnutu? | 10:39 |
| josh_ | I don't know. I only know it's an ATI. | 10:39 |

| stalker_ | so are they just making cpu's with more cores instead of making them bigger now? | 10:43 |

| titancompu | iceroot: That was my Debian thought, but for some reason, I can't get that disc to start up. | 10:43 |
| erUSUL | stalker_: ...instead of making them faster | 10:43 |
| josh_ | That's what I get :) | 10:44 |
| erUSUL | josh_: then you are all set | 10:44 |
| stalker_ | erUSUL, lol, yeah | 10:44 |
| iceroot | titancompu: why? | 10:44 |
| erUSUL | josh_: opengl is accelerated and suported | 10:44 |

| josh_ | ... | 10:44 |
| erUSUL | stalker_: yes that sums it up | 10:44 |
| titancompu | iceroot: Not sure. It doesn't even act like a bootable disc. The md5 was good on it too. | 10:45 |

| === matthew is now known as Guest34753 | ||
| erUSUL | jad: no that i know of | 10:46 |
| stalker_ | erUSUL, i guess they are fast enough | 10:46 |
| jad | thx, is there a way to autosave the contents of that folder to somewhere else, that will not be cleaned every once in a while by apt | 10:47 |
| erUSUL | !aptoncd | jad | 10:47 |

| Xfact | Ubuntu 8.04 is not officially support latest versions, but If I install it additionally, will it be ok? | 10:49 |
| mka | jad, you can create a separate partition that you will have a mount point being /var/cache/apt/archives | 10:49 |
| MorphyNOR | Xfact: what do you mean? | 10:49 |
| mka | jad, the size that that partition cannot be exceeded | 10:50 |
| jad | ok cool | 10:50 |
| iceroot | Xfact: its still under support | 10:50 |
| iceroot | !lts | Xfact | 10:50 |
| ubottu | Xfact: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Hardy (Hardy Heron 8.04). The next LTS release is scheduled to be !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04) | 10:50 |
| mka | jad, I never tried this, but you can try to "sudo chattr +i /var/cache/apt/archives/*.deb so that no user can remove those files by apt-get clean | 10:51 |
| iceroot | mka: apt-get clean is called by root | 10:51 |
| mka | iceroot, I know | 10:52 |
| iceroot | mka: if root cant delete them, noone will be able to delete them | 10:52 |
| stronze | firefox sound issues - did fresh reboot to test.if i attempt to play youtube videos or anything of that nature, sound drivers fail and no sound is possible.if i play a movie before attempting a youtube type video, sound will continue to work for the system but will still recieve static type sound from youtube type videos | 10:52 |
| mka | iceroot, but sudo apt-get clean will not be able to remove files that are immutable | 10:52 |
| mka | iceroot, yes you are right | 10:53 |
| chu | Hey, anyone using docky? | 10:53 |
| mka | iceroot, I think jad does not want to delete his .deb files | 10:53 |

| iceroot | mka: a nice to know, just tested chattr +i and i cant delete a file as root | 10:54 |
| stronze | stalker - tried.adobe says i have lastest version.side note update manger has adobe update greyed out and can remove or access via update manger | 10:54 |
| stronze | cant* | 10:54 |
| chu | Anyone know how to change the docky theme? | 10:54 |
| iceroot | mka: but it is -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 2009-12-31 11:53 foobar | 10:54 |
| stalker_ | stronze, reinstall manually maybe | 10:54 |
| jad | what i meant is: is there a way to keep the .debs in /var/apt/cache/archives and not for them to get cleaned every once in a while | 10:55 |
| wowoto | chu: install the theme you like | 10:55 |
| MorphyNOR | stronze: there's supposed to be a space between a . and a new word ;) | 10:55 |
| stronze | stalker - via package manager? | 10:55 |
| mka | iceroot, yes, you can list the attributes by "lsattr"" | 10:55 |
| titancompu | Wow, not even the recovery console can add a user.This install is dead dead dead. | 10:55 |
| chu | wowoto, yeah I have the theme, but how do I install it? | 10:55 |
| stalker_ | stronze, or possibly downgrade a bit | 10:55 |
| chrome | Hey guys, I have a DVB-T tuner thats working great with MythTV on 9.10, but I can't get the IR to work. The driver is loaded, shows up in the devices list, isn't in use by any other process, but I don't see any activity when I cat the device etc. Anyone have any ideas? | 10:55 |
| stronze | morphynor - i suck a typeing | 10:55 |
| stronze | stalker - ill attempt reinstall | 10:56 |
| stalker_ | stronze, just download the plugin and put it in /lib/mozilla/firefox/plugin or something | 10:56 |
| iceroot | mka: hm what is the differenc between ls -all foobar (rwxrwxrwx..) and listattr? or better why there are attributes different to rwxrwxrwx... | 10:56 |
| bcj | stronze; And spelling - "typeing" :) | 10:56 |
| wowoto | chu: have a look at the INSTALL.tex or readme.tex | 10:56 |
| stalker_ | stronze, if you do it while firefox is running it doesnt always work out as good | 10:56 |
| * wowoto txt | 10:57 | |
| chu | The theme is only pictures, there's no README, hence why I came here, but anyway. | 10:57 |
| stronze | bjc - bite me lol | 10:57 |
| mka | iceroot, "ls -l" lists the file permissions (modes) that you set by chmod and "lsattr" lists the file attributes that you set by "chattr" | 10:57 |
| wowoto | chu: only pictures? | 10:58 |
| stalker_ | anyone know if i can download a stripper for AMOR, im getting tired of the bsd devil | 10:58 |

| dnivra | how do I know if my disc drive support DVD burning? Is there any command or some way to know in ubuntu? | 10:58 |
| dnivra | supports* | 10:59 |
| mka | iceroot, the root can override a permissions and delete any file but a root cannot override attributes | 10:59 |
| wowoto | chu: the theme should be file.deb or file.tar.gz // | 10:59 |
| stalker_ | stronze, yeah, im having trouble with flash on my aspire one notebook running arch, although it works fine on my desktop on all the linux version i got going | 10:59 |
| chu | It's just to make docky transparent, it's 4 images all tar'd up. All of the information online seems to regard GNOME Do docky, but I'm interested in the separate version of docky. A locate docky only returned the package from /var/apt/archives | 11:00 |

| chu | Nah, as far as gtk theme goes Mist is awesome. I just wanted to make docky transparent, I found the theme (linked), but there's no documentation available for how to install it. | 11:03 |
| nero_ | that's what it shows | 11:03 |
| nero_ | lo no wireless extensions. | 11:03 |
| nero_ | eth0 no wireless extensions. | 11:03 |
| psycho_oreos | nero_, that isn't lspci, that's iwconfig | 11:03 |
| stalker_ | nero_, do lspci and find you etherent card | 11:04 |
| psycho_oreos | nero_, and use pastebin | 11:04 |
| erUSUL | koltroll: iirc you have to disable journallling in OS X and do some other hackery to make it work. and even that is buggy | 11:04 |

| nandu20 | mka:thank u...... | 11:26 |
| mka | nandu20, to install these you can use synaptic | 11:26 |
| stronze | stalker_ think running mplayer in terminal will say what sound problem is/ | 11:27 |
| SickAnimations | jacob_: I'm not sure what you've done. Can you use CTRL+C? | 11:27 |
| stalker_ | stronze, oh so mplayer isnt working either? sounds like the issue isnt flash lol | 11:27 |

| admin3700 | llutz, sry i am not very experienced in linux, but the link doesn't work, because the firefox doesn't work. should i enter these sudo-commands in the terminal? | 11:41 |

| dnivra | llutz: the last two make sense:P; the will to anyone who's used ubuntu for sometime I guess. the first one does make sense what's it's doing but not how it's working. | 11:42 |
| stalker_ | stronze_, ah hah! | 11:43 |
| stalker_ | stronze_, i think it may have to due with the fact you cant play 2 audio files at once on linux with mixing software isntalled | 11:43 |
| stronze_ | stalker_ - quassel told me that driver didnt work and it went back to default.so it wasnt movie player saying the message | 11:44 |
| ce_wek | hai | 11:44 |
| stronze_ | stalker_ i i never had this issue untill i deployed to iraq | 11:44 |

| ubottu | With Launchpad's Personal Package Archives (PPA), you can build and publish binary Ubuntu packages for multiple architectures simply by uploading an Ubuntu source package to Launchpad. See https://help.launchpad.net/PPAQuickStart. | 11:50 |
| stronze_ | stalker_ now i gotta reboot if i want sound back | 11:50 |
| jason_ | I thought Ubuntu packages were debian (.deb) and not binary... | 11:50 |
| jason_ | I'm confused. | 11:51 |
| stalker_ | stronze_, as a result of FF? i can see that, your probably having the same problem my lappy is, it works great unless i go to youtube | 11:51 |
| stronze_ | stalker_ as far as i can figure its a problem with adobe java cuz i tried other video sits besides youtube | 11:51 |
| stronze_ | stalker_ my best guess is a FF update screwed something up | 11:51 |
| stalker_ | stronze_, and they work? | 11:51 |
| stronze_ | stalker_ non work after i try any adobe flash players | 11:52 |
| jason_ | Sound seems to be the one thing that Ubuntu has big problems with lo | 11:52 |
| stronze_ | stalker_ via browser | 11:52 |
| stalker_ | yeah, ive been meaning to try a different browser and see how it works | 11:52 |
| fallore | what do i have to do to get an ubuntu box with only the terminal to show up on my home network so that windows computers can read/write to it | 11:53 |
| stronze_ | stalker_ - hmm i think ill try a diff browser. oprea or chrome? | 11:53 |
| stalker_ | stronze_, a different browser might be the easiest solution, and although not the best, and just wait for new upgrade to FF | 11:53 |
| stalker_ | stronze_, both if you have too lol | 11:53 |

| mka | meero, I dont know I never used aptitude before | 12:17 |
| kue | hi all | 12:18 |
| screamsayonara | how can i get the old driver off, is there a way i can restore previous settings or something like that? | 12:18 |
| mka | hi kue | 12:18 |
| iceroot | mka: this comes from debian : aptitude has more advanced conflict/dependency resolution and will often be able to come up with a solutionwhere apt-get just gives up. It has advanced search capabilities (see <aptitude search>). Like apt-get, itcan also remove or purge one package at the same time as installing others all from the command line or atthe Y/n/q/? prompt using its interactive resolver, making it much easier to recover | 12:18 |
| stalker_ | screamsayonara, if you reinstall the old one it should work | 12:18 |
| iceroot | subitoo: not working. just look at the manual | 12:18 |
| meero | mka: aptitude has some interface if u type command alone, that is why im using it | 12:19 |
| stalker_ | screamsayonara, how are you isntalling them? | 12:19 |
| screamsayonara | stalker_ but i am a total noob and i dont know how to do that from the command line | 12:19 |
| mka | iceroot, thanks a lot, that was very informative | 12:19 |

| dnm | dnirva: yup thats y i came here ... i can get my wifi on the system but i am unable to connect | 12:29 |
| stalker_ | screamsayonara, if your on live disc on the laptop, you should be able to get internet, you might just have to load the module for your wifi card | 12:30 |
| andreas__ | okay when I run sudo install grub-pc I configure everything correctly like this (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Upgrading%20to%20GRUB%202) but I get the error: "grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for /boot/grub." | 12:30 |
| andreas__ | any ideas on what this means? | 12:30 |
| mka | meero, are you talking about the chroot I know? | 12:30 |
| mka | meero, what are you chroot-ing to? | 12:31 |
| meero | mka: yes, but i dont want to create/use root in chroot enviroment | 12:31 |
| sarthorks | I have a question regarding the "preparing system to mem sleep" msg in kern.log. Does it appear when the system is suspended, or when it is woken up for resume? | 12:31 |
| meero | i want to chroot rtorrent, and some other applications | 12:31 |
| mka | meero, are you getting errors when you try to install in that env? | 12:32 |
| dnivra | andreas__: since you're running the livecd, did you chroot into the root partition? just a thought that's all.... | 12:33 |
| Maleko | what do you use to recover deleted data from ext4? | 12:34 |
| mka | Maleko, thrash | 12:35 |

| andreas__ | dnivra: I have not done this. I am running a amd64 version of 9.10 Is it any different than a 32 bit when it comes to chroot? | 12:35 |
| meero | mka: not really, because i dont have root privilages in chroot enviroment, im just thinking - how to install it outside of chroot | 12:35 |
| dnivra | andreas__: don't think so. not much idea. perhaps someone else will answer that. | 12:36 |
| mka | meero, but you can give yourself root priviledges in the chroot env before you get into it | 12:36 |
| meero | mka: good idea, i try it | 12:37 |
| bcj | Does anyone know of a reason why I might be stopped from locking the screen (9.10)? | 12:38 |

| meero | mka: maybe a stupid question, how to add user with admin privilages in chroot ? | 12:48 |
| stalker_ | aska, if you forgot the passphrase not likely | 12:49 |
| aska | Not good. :( | 12:49 |
| aska | Not good at all. :( | 12:49 |
| stalker_ | aska, how strong was the pass? was it like 123 | 12:49 |
| supertux1 | aska http://www.kaijanmaki.net/blog/2009/10/26/recovering-files-from-ecryptfs-encrypted-home/ | 12:49 |
| nstyr65 | aska; you're out of luck if you forgot the password, unless you used a dictionary based pass | 12:49 |
| nstyr65 | did you? | 12:49 |
| supertux1 | aska that? | 12:50 |
| supertux1 | a | 12:50 |
| nstyr65 | supertux1; he forgot the pass | 12:51 |
| supertux1 | aska but with no passphrase you cannot recovery anything... my article is bad...not for you sorry | 12:51 |
| nstyr65 | your only option is trying to brute force the pass if you used a weak pass | 12:51 |
| c3101 | okay, nasty question for the day: i have pdf documents, with links to media files in them, like mp3s or videos, now things like envince or okular do not even see the links, where as acrobat reader for linux does... but this is not the problem... in acrobat, the only media play chooseable is RealOne, and it does not launch, how do i get acrobat reader on linux to launch the media player of my choice ? | 12:51 |
| aska | supertux1: :( | 12:51 |
| supertux1 | nstyr65 infact i've read bad | 12:51 |
| aska | nstyr65: I do not know what password I have used. I think it generates one for me. Is that possible? If I did input the passworord by myself I might now what it is. | 12:52 |
| nstyr65 | Does that program support using files as keys? In the future I would use an easy to remember pass and then just use some files as keys to strengthen it | 12:52 |
| stalker_ | aska, after you forget your encryption key the second time you realize you cant remember a 30 character long string of random letters and special chars | 12:52 |
| usr13 | aska: You did not write it down? | 12:53 |
| aska | usr13: Nope. :( | 12:53 |
| supertux1 | with a strong algoritm and a strong pass need BILLIONS of year to recovery with all computer in the world :| | 12:53 |
| supertux1 | years* | 12:53 |
| supertux1 | bilions* | 12:54 |
| andreas__ | So if my harddrive has sdb (filesystem) has sdb1linux, sdb2extended, sdb5,swap do I have a seperate boot partition? | 12:54 |
| aska | Ok, lets say I know the passphrase. If I was ask to input one i might know what it was. How can I try to recover it? | 12:54 |
| supertux1 | sorry, my multilanguage ability is down today | 12:54 |
| nstyr65 | aska; assuming you didn't use any other keys, you should be able to decrypt it with the program you used | 12:55 |
| nstyr65 | as long as you guess the pass | 12:55 |
| aska | nstyr65: How should I try to do it? | 12:55 |
| stalker_ | aska, what program did you use? | 12:55 |
| nstyr65 | I've never used that program | 12:55 |
| aska | stalker_: Ubuntu installer. | 12:55 |
| supertux1 | aska next time use a pass the write it on a pice of paper and keep it in a security box or hide it somewhere... (or use a keyfile) or both | 12:55 |
| nstyr65 | I recommend truecrypt in the future | 12:56 |
| stalker_ | aska, thats luks | 12:56 |
| supertux1 | aska if the program supports keyfile | 12:56 |
| andreas__ | Supertux1: Sorry let me rephrase myself. I'm still having problems with reconfiguring my MBR. My 1st harddrive has 3 seperate partitions SDB1,2,5 with following filesystems Linux, Extended, and Swap. Does this mean that I have a seperate /boot/ partition? | 12:56 |
| supertux1 | if you didn't nkow the pass you spend your time | 12:56 |
| stalker_ | aska, it doesnt ask you at boot time? | 12:56 |
| aska | stalker_: Cant remember now. If it did I know what I might have to input. I will not be able to guess a self generated pass. | 12:57 |

| nstyr65 | so secure you yourself can't even get in :P | 13:06 |
| nstyr65 | your best bet is to email whatever provider you have and tell them all the details of your account and try to get them to reset the password | 13:06 |

| MoonShadow | If it happens to freeze while I'm typing something, it tells me <1>BUG: unable to handle kernel | 13:18 |
| SickAnimations | Sorry :S | 13:18 |
| MoonShadow | I checket the syslog | 13:18 |
| stalker_ | bcj, what happpens when you try? maybe its just the key-binding? | 13:18 |

| bcj | stalker_: Ah - that might be it. I disabled the screensaver start-up option. | 13:20 |
| bcj | Although, to me at least, it's not logical that this should have that kind of affect. | 13:21 |
| bcj | stalker_: Ah yes - screen locking is indeed part of the screensaver. | 13:21 |

| ce_wek | hai | 13:22 |
| drippee | i know that vmware does not | 13:22 |
| ce_wek | hai | 13:22 |
| bcj | drippee: Yep, just checked and VirtualBox works. | 13:23 |
| drippee | cool | 13:23 |
| bcj | VMware should do (at least the commercial one does). | 13:23 |

| MoonShadow | Well, [S|G], I got as far as "could not find map file" when it froze again | 13:23 |
| bcj | drippee: VirtualBox is in the repos, can be installed easily, and is open source. I use it all the time and have no problems so far. | 13:23 |
| drippee | i have never even been able to get gnome desktop effects to work in vmware | 13:24 |

| chadi | What is the advantage of having /home, /usr, and /others as seperate partitions? | 13:24 |
| wildman | hello there, some times I have to run X apps after logging to a remote host using ssh. does ssh have an option similar to the ones found in vpn software that will degrade the graphic quality a bit in favour of speed? | 13:24 |
| drippee | does the standard install disk of ubuntu include gcc? | 13:25 |
| BlueBoyz | hi, i have plug usb modem. how to find path this modem. eg: /etc/usb0 | 13:25 |
| bcj | drippee: Yes | 13:25 |
| llutz | chadi: /home for easier backup/restore, /usr maybe to have it ro-mounted, /var to prevent / getting filled | 13:25 |
| itsnotstalking | chadi, limits user hard drive usage | 13:25 |
| bcj | drippee: I believe it will do. Try: sudo apt-get install build-essential | 13:25 |
| [S|G] | MoonShadow: you said it was 9.04, right? | 13:25 |
| nasser | hi everyone! | 13:25 |
| bcj | drippee: Make sure the CD is selected as a repo source. | 13:26 |
| MoonShadow | yes | 13:26 |
| itsnotstalking | chadi, or multiple systems could maybe share the same /home ?? | 13:26 |
| MoonShadow | I downloaded when it came out and kept the cd | 13:26 |
| MoonShadow | installed from that | 13:26 |
| [S|G] | MoonShadow: is it fully updated? | 13:26 |

| chadi | llutz: but not all settings are in /home, some are in /usr | 13:26 |

| sunil1 | yes | 14:08 |

| itsnotstalking | sunil, run sudo fdisk -l and write down the parts you need to format | 14:09 |
| itsnotstalking | sunil, then do mkfs.ext3 /dev/hda* from live disc | 14:09 |

| itsnotstalking | nasser, if your the guy with the compiz prob, not using compiz would use less resources | 14:12 |
| jimcooncat | nasser: you may want to try a lighter window manager, such as openbox or xmodad | 14:12 |
| Younder | nasser, more RAM probaly, optionally trim off the components you don't need | 14:13 |

| itsnotstalking | Leapo, it works good with nvidia, for me at least | 14:13 |
| Leapo | itsnotstalking: The host has a GTX260 and a 9800GT | 14:14 |
| itsnotstalking | Leapo, i got a 9500GT and its working good | 14:14 |
| Leapo | (Ubuntu is running in VMWare 7, 3D acceleration is working, but compiz will not enable) | 14:14 |
| itsnotstalking | Leapo, someone else was saying its hard to get it working in compiz | 14:14 |
| itsnotstalking | Leapo, someone else was saying its hard to get it working in vmware | 14:15 |
| Leapo | Double post? | 14:15 |
| itsnotstalking | no | 14:15 |
| itsnotstalking | last word was wrong lol | 14:15 |
| Leapo | ah | 14:15 |
| scunizi | Leapo: that's probably because the VM doesn't know you have an nvidia card.. vmware will emulate something else.. and quite possibly ubuntu doesn't recognize it as a card capable of 3d | 14:15 |

| Leapo | Well, there's got to be a way. OpenGL is working, and i obviously have the video driver installed properly (triple monitor is working http://kimag.es/share/88166866.png) | 14:16 |
| scunizi | Leapo: have you looked in System>Admin>Hardware drivers? to see if there is something there that needs activating? | 14:16 |
| erUSUL | Leapo: scunizi is right. compiz has a whitelist of cards (drivers to be precise) it supports. vmware card/driver is not in that list | 14:16 |
| Leapo | scunizi: Yes, VMWare's video card identifies as some generic card, but it supports all the features of the host video adapter in VMWare 7 | 14:17 |
| nomnex | what's the command to see if my "laptop_<make>.ko" module is correctly mounted? | 14:17 |

| Leapo | erUSUL: Compiz hasn't been updated for VMWare 7, then? | 14:17 |
| erUSUL | Leapo: scunizi « cat $(which compiz) | grep WHITELIST » at your own risk you can edit the script and add your driver to that list | 14:18 |
| axz | Guys whats best suggested burning tool for Ubuntu | 14:18 |
| scunizi | Leapo: you could try making a copy of your ubuntu vm and load it in virtuabox.. however their 3d support is still a little sketchy | 14:18 |
| erUSUL | nomnex: loaded not mounted ;) is « lsmod | less » | 14:18 |
| scunizi | axz: k3b | 14:19 |
| Leapo | Yeah, VMWare seems to have some seriously mature 3D support. i had Crysis running in a Windows VM | 14:19 |
| axz | scunizi, yeah but he needs to install all kind KDE3 junk | 14:19 |
| scunizi | so | 14:19 |
| Leapo | erUSUL: I'll give it a shot. It /should/ work fine. | 14:19 |
| nasser | how can I check the version of my ATI video adapter | 14:19 |
| axz | scunizi, dunno doesn't that give any complications? | 14:20 |
| nomnex | erUSUL, right, how do I interpret "panasonic_laptop 5468 0" loaded? | 14:20 |
| sarthork1 | nasser: try 'dmidecode' | 14:20 |

| nomnex | erUSUL, the value 0 or 1 is not relevant? | 14:21 |
| scunizi | axz: no doesn't cause any issues.. and the required packages will be automatically installed.. you'll never know they are there.. k3b will just run | 14:21 |
| erUSUL | Leapo: short? there are not many videocard chip makers left. with that list compiz covers all cards | 14:22 |
| macman_ | hey all .. i used growiso -Z if i can recall to burn a dvd but it didn't work .. it burned teh dvd files at like 6x and i neeed it at least at 1x .. should i juse use kde or k3b to burn ? | 14:22 |
| erUSUL | nomnex: it indicates how many other modules depend on that one. | 14:22 |
| axz | scunizi, i will try it... | 14:22 |
| axz | thx | 14:22 |
| erUSUL | nomnex: no other modules depend on it so it shows 0 | 14:22 |
| Leapo | erUSUL: I expected a number of variations on each name. Not all video cards identify the manufacturer identically, and if it's case sensitive... | 14:22 |
| erUSUL | Leapo: is the *driver* name not the card/chip name | 14:23 |

| junos | I just got a dell 10v preloaded with ubuntu....should I bother upgrading it to karmic | 14:24 |

| MrX | same2you! | 14:25 |
| axz | same to you | 14:25 |
| Leapo | erUSUL: Well, how would I go about adding VMWare's video adapter to this list? | 14:26 |
| erUSUL | Leapo: if they are not in the whitelist is becouse this " ... support OpenGL well enough to run compiz." it is not true. | 14:26 |
| erUSUL | Leapo: compiz devs know better than you and me | 14:26 |
| Leapo | Well, VMWare's video adapter passes calls directly to the video hardware of the host (which does support OpenGL well enough to run compiz), and it isn't in the list :-P | 14:27 |
| nasser | erUSUL: How can I know the version of my ATI video adapter? | 14:27 |
| Leapo | erUSUL: It could just be a lack of S3 and Matrox video drivers for Linux | 14:27 |

| Leapo | FuneralChris: Take a look, OpenGL rendering does work. http://kimag.es/share/12934557.png | 14:56 |
| scunizi | belak: that should work fine.. however the mismatch of the ram might be part of your issue.. I'd still be running my 1.6 pentium except the motherboard died | 14:56 |
| belak | Should that be enough to run kubuntu? | 14:57 |
| belak | scunizi, why would that be an issue? | 14:57 |

| jsilver | in gnome | 14:57 |
| gabbah | llutz, zvacet: when doing apt-get update | 14:57 |
| FuneralChris | Leapo, it could be software rendering, pls paste "glxinfo" | 14:57 |

| gabbah | zvacet: why do i have to do upgrade though? i only added a line to sources.list | 14:58 |

| belak | That's why I left | 14:58 |
| ctmjr | gabbah: why are you adding a debian repo to ubuntu | 14:58 |
| disappearedng | http://paste.pocoo.org/show/160906/ can someone tell me how to resolve this? | 14:58 |

| belak | *sigh* I can't find the ubuntu alternate install on the cdimage server | 15:08 |
| Leapo | FuneralChris: VMWare 7 added full 3D acceleration, so this /should/ be working. Aero works on Windows, and DirectX and OpenGL applications all work almost as fast as native apps now. | 15:08 |

| MoonShadow | Hi, Can anyone help me: I installed Ubuntu 9.04 Server, but the machine always freezes about 1 minute after login. Sometime I get "unable to handle kernel paging request...". Googling this only yields pages relevant to self-compiled kernels | 15:09 |
| MoonShadow | I'm at a complete loss... | 15:09 |
| netnull | erUSUL, i think its the problem. i've tryed testdisk but doenst recognize my extended patrition and the others inside it | 15:09 |
| nikow | MoonShadow: memtest? | 15:09 |
| edulacomadreja | hi everyone! I want to sync my w715 mobilephone with evolution | 15:09 |
| MoonShadow | runs fine | 15:09 |
| nikow | hmm... | 15:09 |
| MoonShadow | I tried each RAM-Stick individually, none of them seem to be specifically the problem | 15:09 |
| edulacomadreja | does someone has a good tutorial about this? | 15:10 |
| FuneralChris | Leapo, compiz is just working with direct rendering, "(==) AIGLX enabled" -> aiglx is indirect rendering, so maybe its just a bug (and you have direct rendering), or your system is not using direct rendering | 15:10 |
| nikow | MoonShadow: sorry, i can't help | 15:10 |
| erUSUL | Leapo: compiz needs a very specific opengl GLX extension to be aviable. GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap maybe the vmware driver simply does not support it yet | 15:10 |
| MoonShadow | I've removed the TV card and Unplugged all Drives... | 15:10 |
| belak | Ok | 15:10 |
| MoonShadow | Can anyone? | 15:10 |
| belak | I'll try kubuntu | 15:10 |
| erUSUL | Leapo: glxinfo | grep GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap | 15:10 |
| FuneralChris | !ask | MoonShadow | 15:10 |
| ubottu | MoonShadow: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 15:10 |
| Leapo | erUSUL: the VMWare driver just passes calls directly to the hosts hardware. if the host video adapter supports it, so should VMWare's | 15:10 |
| FuneralChris | erUSUL, thx, didnt remember the command | 15:11 |
| netnull | if no solution to fix table of partition i'd accept also some tricks to save dates and then reinstall system | 15:11 |
| erUSUL | netnull: you can try gpart | 15:11 |
| FuneralChris | netnull, try a rescue disk | 15:11 |
| erUSUL | !info gpart | netnull | 15:11 |
| ubottu | netnull: gpart (source: gpart): Guess PC disk partition table, find lost partitions. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.1h-9 (karmic), package size 37 kB, installed size 108 kB | 15:11 |
| belak | Oh, is the encrypted home dir useful at all? | 15:11 |
| belak | It seemed pointless to me | 15:12 |
| bluebaron | I have just apt-get install xorg and I just want to be able to x11 forward. How do I start the xserver for x11 ssh connections only | 15:12 |
| bluebaron | ? | 15:12 |
| netnull | erUSUL, its possible to install from live cd? im on it | 15:12 |
| bluebaron | incoming x11 connections | 15:12 |
| grawity | bluebaron: Try 'startx'. | 15:12 |
| erUSUL | netnull: yes. sudo aptitude install gpart | 15:12 |
| nomnex | belak, there is a bug with a full encrypted home dir | 15:12 |
| netnull | thx | 15:12 |
| belak | nomnex, ok, then I won't bother with it | 15:13 |
| llutz | belak: at least on portable computers encryption is evident | 15:13 |
| Leapo | erUSUL: Just checked, and yes, that feature _is_ supported | 15:13 |
| erUSUL | netnull: http://www.brzitwa.de/mb/gpart/index.html | 15:13 |
| Leapo | So there's no reason this shouldn't be working | 15:13 |
| bluebaron | grawity, im remoting into a small linux device. will startx work? | 15:13 |
| MoonShadow | what causes "unable to handle kernel paging request"? which kernel module/software? | 15:13 |
| erUSUL | Leapo: then it is time to take this to the compiz developers power users. --> #compiz | 15:13 |
| nomnex | belak, you can't resume from suspend if I recall | 15:13 |
| Leapo | *sigh* off I go | 15:13 |
| grawity | bluebaron: wait, where did you install that Xserver? On your local system or on that remote device? | 15:13 |
| ljamisonii | hello all | 15:14 |
| redfrog | is there a shortcut to kill a runaway process without opening a termnial? | 15:14 |
| bluebaron | grawity, i am in x right now on my lappy, i sshd into this device and apt-get install xorg. now I'm trying to ssh -X smalllinuxdevice xclock and I'm getting display errors | 15:14 |
| FuneralChris | Leapo, wait | 15:15 |
| erUSUL | redfrog: you can use the xkill applet. add it to one of your pannels. or make a shortcut that runs xkill | 15:15 |
| Leapo | FuneralChris: What's up? | 15:15 |
| grawity | bluebaron: You don't need Xorg in it. Only on the laptop. | 15:15 |
| bluebaron | grawity, do you know why I would be getting cannot open display 11:0? | 15:16 |
| redfrog | thanks erUSUL. It seems a little confusing that there is no equivilaent to ctr-alt-del | 15:16 |
| FuneralChris | Leapo, you don't have hardware rendering, your system use software rendering (check glxinfo), and compiz wont work witz software rendering, so -> graphic card driver problem (not supported /bug) | 15:16 |
| grawity | bluebaron: try ssh'ing with the -v option, it might tell you. | 15:17 |
| bluebaron | okay i will | 15:17 |
| bluebaron | gotta disconnect to do that | 15:17 |
| Leapo | FuneralChris: That's odd, because I was just playing Quake 4 at full speed >_> | 15:17 |
| bluebaron | bbl | 15:17 |
| ljamisonii | I have a question...I just installed PlayOnLinux and when I run it, the program says that there is an update for it. I ran all the update commands but it does not update PlayOnLinux..any suggestions? | 15:17 |
| llutz | redfrog: kde uses ctrl-alt-esc to call xkill | 15:17 |
| erUSUL | redfrog: you can make that same shortcut run gnome-system-monitor | 15:17 |
| Sp0tter | grawity: do you have "X11Forwarding yes" in your sshd_config? | 15:17 |
| Dr_Willis | ljamisonii: if somthing got installed system wide by the root user. then it needs to get 'updated' by the root user as well. | 15:17 |
| bluebaron | Sp0tter, that's me.... yes i do .. getting cannot open display 11.0 | 15:17 |
| Sp0tter | ah, you have the same blue color names | 15:18 |
| FuneralChris | Leapo, yeah, could be a bug (eg. you have hardware rendering, and you can use it, but it doesnt show up), i had that on an old Sis graphic card | 15:18 |
| Sp0tter | stupid colors in irc | 15:18 |
| hhlp | redfrog system - administration - system monitor -- tag ... process and you can select the process to kill | 15:18 |
| Leapo | FuneralChris: Any way to just force Compiz to start anyway? | 15:18 |
| ljamisonii | Dr_Willis: Alright...and how would I do that/what terminal command would be used? | 15:18 |
| llutz | Sp0tter: reconfigure your client then | 15:18 |
| grawity | Sp0tter: His nick is like twice as long. (Also, if X forwarding was off, he'd probably get 'DISPLAY not set' or w/e.) | 15:18 |
| bluebaron | Sp0tter, i ggfn ... if you have a solution can you pm? I will get it later. meeting ...LATE! | 15:18 |
| Dr_Willis | ljamisonii: ive no idea. I dont use playonlinux. | 15:18 |
| Sp0tter | ok | 15:19 |
| FuneralChris | Leapo, is it necessary for you to use compiz? | 15:19 |
| Dr_Willis | ljamisonii: if you installed it via the package manager system and a 'repository' then you should use the repos to update it. its possible the updates may be a little slow getting to the repos. | 15:19 |
| Leapo | FuneralChris: It would be nice to have it working for once | 15:19 |
| Dr_Willis | ljamisonii: the big question is - 'how did you install it' | 15:19 |
| ljamisonii | Dr_Willis: I used the package manager system to install it | 15:20 |
| === sean is now known as Guest35604 | ||
| disappearedng | my g++ is showing up with /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lboost_python | 15:20 |
| Dr_Willis | ljamisonii: then i would ignore the update messages. untill the repos get updated for that program. | 15:20 |
| xcv | i jumped in mid conversation. before he quit, belak said he couldn't find alternate install on the cdimage server. looks like amd64 and i386 alternates are both there -- http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/ | 15:20 |
| ljamisonii | Dr_Willis: Alrighty..thanks a lot! I just wanted to make sure I wasn't doing something wrong lol | 15:20 |
| FuneralChris | Leapo, you have to wait for a newer version of vmware (or they will never add support for that) (here is the proof: OpenGL version string: 2.1 Mesa 7.6) mesa=software rendering | 15:20 |
| saykou | how do i update the apt-get stuff, it has a lot of old software, and i tried like sudo apt-get update and nothing, keeps me downloading old stuff | 15:21 |
| saykou | old versions | 15:21 |
| Leapo | FuneralChris: Which doesn't make any sense, because OpenGL applications are running at full speed in Ubuntu and under Windows | 15:21 |
| Leapo | (both inside virtual machines) | 15:21 |
| llutz | saykou: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 15:21 |
| FuneralChris | Leapo, or am i wrong? | 15:21 |
| saykou | llutz, will try | 15:21 |
| Leapo | FuneralChris: I haev no clue anymore, I've never had Ubuntu just "work" correctly...ever... | 15:21 |
| Leapo | i tried Kubuntu the other day, that was a nightmare | 15:22 |
| xtjacob | does anyone know why my whole computer freezes when I enable hardware virtualization in virtualbox? | 15:22 |
| === Callum_ is now known as Callum|Asleep | ||
| llutz | saykou: you may read apt-get man-page to see what "update" actually does | 15:22 |
| FuneralChris | Leapo, hm... without vmware it would work | 15:22 |
| Leapo | what? | 15:22 |
| bullgard | [Karmic] What is the name of the loudspeaker icon in the notification area with 1, 2, or 3 sound waves to the right that shows the tooltip: "Output: 58%, -14,19 dB, Internal Audio Analog Stereo" when hovering over it? | 15:23 |

| Callum|Asleep | happy new year, good night everyone...(4:22am on Jan 1, not good =/) | 15:23 |
| saykou | llutz, for example mozzilla thunderbird has already the 3.0 version, but i only downloads the 2.0 something version | 15:23 |
| llutz | saykou: find a repo for it or wait for next release to get those versions | 15:24 |
| FuneralChris | Leapo, yeah, its software rendering "OpenGL renderer string: Software Rasterizer" did you tried to update your system, should be a graphic card / Xorg bug | 15:24 |
| Leapo | Yeah, I updated | 15:24 |
| FuneralChris | Callum, 16:25 PM in germany :-p | 15:25 |

| Leapo | I'm gonna go with Xorg, because other OS's seem to be working with the video card just fine | 15:25 |
| Leapo | mka: VMWare 7 has full support for 3D acceleration. Can't get compiz to enable on it, and it's reporting software rendering in ubuntu (meanwhile, Windows is in another VM running on the same virtual hardware running OpenGL apps just fine) | 15:26 |
| FuneralChris | Leapo, the problem is the graphic card driver, imo, windows use proprietary grapih card drivers, so you dont have a problem in windows | 15:27 |
| Leapo | FuneralChris: Windows is using the driver supplied by VMWare | 15:27 |
| Leapo | So is Ubuntu | 15:28 |
| FuneralChris | Leapo, mom | 15:28 |
| Leapo | huh? | 15:28 |
| erUSUL | Leapo: well it all comes down to this. compiz does not support vmware's driver/card is as simple as that. maybe a newer version will support it | 15:28 |
| mka | Leapo, tried compiz-check? http://forlong.blogage.de/entries/pages/Compiz-Check | 15:29 |
| Leapo | erUSUL: Looks more like ubuntu isn't detecting it properly, at this point. | 15:29 |
| FuneralChris | Leapo, =moment | 15:29 |
| FuneralChris | erUSUL, compiz doesnt support software rendering, thats the problem, not compiz | 15:30 |
| Leapo | I could always try 9.04 and see if that works better. After all, 9.10 came out after VMWare 7 | 15:30 |
| reinis | man, I've broken networking for my eeebuntu :( | 15:30 |
| reinis | nothing works | 15:30 |
| Leapo | FuneralChris: But it shouldn't be using software rendering, the hardware supports OpenGL >_> | 15:30 |
| FuneralChris | Leapo, or you could try debian | 15:30 |

| FuneralChris | Leapo, vmware use hardware emulation, right? so direct rendering wouldn't work. and compiz need (!) direct rendering, so that will never work, you can try an alternative to compiz | 15:37 |
| Leapo | FuneralChris: Nope, VMWare 7 uses hardware acceleration. It's all run on the video card. | 15:37 |
| Leapo | That's why 3D games and Aero suddenly work at full speed on Windows under VMWare 7 | 15:38 |
| repnop | hardly full speed eh ;) | 15:38 |
| repnop | but much better than purely in software | 15:38 |
| FuneralChris | Leapo, so the linux grapih card drivers from vmware doenst support (or its a bug) hardware acceleration in linux | 15:38 |
| FuneralChris | *doesnt | 15:38 |
| Leapo | repnop: Crysis running at almost the same speed as it does on the host OS is close enough to "full speed" for me :-P | 15:38 |

| macman_ | whats a good equiv for limewire for linux .. frostwire was no good | 15:40 |
| Leapo | FuneralChris: That's because they're all out of date and refer to VMWare 6.5 | 15:40 |
| Dr_Willis | macman_: and why was it no good? | 15:40 |
| Leapo | which DOES NOT have 3D acceleration beyond emulation | 15:40 |
| macman_ | Dr_Willis: have you tried it ? | 15:40 |

| Leapo | ctmjr: Well, VMWare's virtual hardware obviously works fine, other OS's work fine...which puts it down to an issue with something in Ubuntu itself | 15:41 |

| FuneralChris | Leapo, not a good idea | 15:47 |

| FuneralChris | Leapo, i think you should compile 2.6.33 kernel, or use that from ubuntu 10.04 | 15:49 |
| Cyber_Akuma | My friend has shown interest in dual-booting his system with Linux, he has a 2.8GHZ Pentium 4 system with 512 megs of ram, while this does fit within the minimum system specs of Ubuntu, would you recommend he run 9.10 on such an old system or go with xubuntu instead? And how big would you think he should make his swap partition? 512 megs? 1GB? 2GB? | 15:49 |
| irlolcopter_ | !mintsupport | 15:49 |
| ubottu | Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu, please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 15:50 |

| FuneralChris | bgjsl, not a good idea | 15:50 |
| FuneralChris | bgjsl, drivers are not in old 9.04 kernel, but in new 10.04 kernel | 15:50 |
| DJones | Cyber_Akuma: That system should be fine running Ubuntu, my laptop only has 512Mb ram & doesn't have any problems, for swap, I'd suggest 1gb | 15:51 |
| bgjsl | well tell me chris we know 9.04 runs good enough and trying to change into unknown ubuntu version | 15:51 |
| IdleOne | Cyber_Akuma: 1GB swap should be fine and he can install ubuntu and try it out, if it's to slow for him he can alsways sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop | 15:51 |

| Leapo | FuneralChris: Sounds like I should just wait for Ubuntu get get this stuff sorted out -_- | 15:52 |
| xcv | FuneralChris, bgjsl, Leapo: I think 9.04 is a worthy test -- that's the version that vmware explicitly supports. I think the 10.04 alpha would be a good test too, just to see if it solves the problem. | 15:52 |
| FuneralChris | Leapo, wait for 2.6.33 final release | 15:52 |

| erUSUL | netnull: well i do not have used it much; (good for me i guess) so i dunno | 15:57 |
| bcj | P1R1: You could just do periodic updates, or write a cron job to check the directories you want and copy the files. | 15:57 |
| jiohdi | leapo, while that is true, it also makes for tight and efficient coding when done right, so the system is not a memory pig | 15:57 |

Meanwhile, other OS's can have fairly deeply integrated drivers like video drivers crash...and simply recovery from it by restarting the driver.

| Letterbomb05 | Hi, I'm trying to use crontabs in Ubuntu Server Edition (8.10), however, whenever I use the crontab command I get "-bash: crontab: command not found". Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? | 16:10 |
| grawity | Letterbomb05: either a) cron is not installed, or b) the 'crontab' command is not in $PATH | 16:11 |
| grawity | Letterbomb05: So first, dpkg -l | grep cron | 16:11 |
| FuneralChris | belak, download latest drivers from nvidia.com, stop kdm and run file | 16:11 |
| e01 | FuneralChris, r u sure | 16:11 |
| theadmin | Does anyone know whether it's a good idea to stay on LTS releases? Or is it better to move on with normal ones? | 16:11 |
| Leapo | jiohdi: I really don't see how you can consider Windows a pig with all the features they pack in O_o | 16:11 |
| e01 | i think that in germany now is 19 o'clock | 16:11 |
| Dr_Willis | belak: or just sudo apt-get install whatever-the-nidia-glx package name is for yiour system | 16:11 |
| grawity | subito: I think you need to download the .ttf files instead. | 16:12 |
| belak | FuneralChris: I was able to install the nvidia-glx-173 package... I just need to enable it | 16:12 |
| theadmin | e01: Can't be, it's 19 in russia :D we have 2 hour difference. | 16:12 |
| sunil1 | how to use fdisk command to delete a partion "/dev/sda9"?? | 16:12 |
| Letterbomb05 | one moment grawity. | 16:12 |
| bgjsl | e01 deutsch? | 16:12 |
| Dr_Willis | theadmin: depends on what you are doing with the system | 16:12 |
| subito | grawity: ok, what should i do with them? | 16:12 |
| jiohdi | leapo, its a memory pig that requires a lot more hardware than I need for what I do :) | 16:12 |
| belak | Unless it does it automatically without an xorg.conf? | 16:12 |
| e01 | bgjsl, bulgarian | 16:12 |
| bgjsl | that is cool | 16:12 |
| Dr_Willis | subito: run 'sudo fdisk /dev/sda' and read its help menu. use the 'd' for delete. and 'w' to write changes to disk.. be CAREFULL with fdisk | 16:12 |
| Letterbomb05 | grawity: got nothing from that command. | 16:12 |
| theadmin | Dr_Willis: Common things... not that I need extreme stability. Just a regular desktop user. | 16:12 |
| grawity | subito: The .ttf files go into your ~/.fonts/ directory | 16:12 |
| reinis | why can't I scroll the gnome terminal up with my mouse | 16:12 |
| e01 | The_Thing, my mistake, i mean 17 | 16:12 |
| grawity | Letterbomb05: Install cron, then. | 16:12 |
| Leapo | jiohdi: Eh? Windows 7 runs great on hardware that's been around since XP was released (that would be 10 year old hardware). How's that a pig? | 16:12 |
| Dr_Willis | theadmin: may as well play with the new goodies then | 16:12 |

| FuneralChris | belak, this driver is too old, you can also install latest from repos. belak, i think ubuntu got a special thing calld "hardware drivers" (search in start menu), you can just click on "enable" in that tool | 16:13 |
| grawity | subito: then it's done | 16:13 |
| theadmin | Dr_Willis: Now am on 9.10, but wonder whether it's a good idea to move on, after 10.04... well, thanks for clearing up | 16:13 |
| bcj | Leapo: Compare that to Xubuntu that runs great on 15 year old hardware ;) | 16:13 |
| Letterbomb05 | Ah sorry grawity, I didnt actually realise cron had to be installed, I thought it came as default. New to using Ubuntu Server, my bad. | 16:13 |
| subito | grawity: but i don't have a ~/.fonts directory | 16:13 |
| belak | FuneralChris: I was trying that and it isn't doing anything. | 16:13 |

| alabd_ | itsnotstalking: to share internet between 2 pc , should those steps be done on each side ? | 16:49 |
| itsnotstalking | well each computer has to connect to the router that way yes | 16:49 |
| mka | totopr, ok, you either fix audio on that kernel or fix usb modem on the newer kernel | 16:50 |

| karlpinc | iSpoof: One of the partitions must be an extended partition. You can then create additional partitions ("inside" the extended partition). | 16:59 |
| mrwes | meowsus: are you behind a router? If so, most routers allow you to statically assign IPs | 16:59 |

| blackest_knight | is there an issue starting timidity or tuxguitar remotely via ssh ? | 17:21 |
| karlpinc | invisime: If it never gets to grub then it's a bios issue. | 17:21 |
| sunil1 | may i know how to install Flash player on my pc??????? | 17:21 |
| karlpinc | invisime: check the boot order. | 17:21 |
| bakarat | i'm using an nvidia card, and using "nvidia-settings", if i connect Monitor1 via HDMI, it works, if i switch the HDMI to Monitor2 (nvidia at this point still indicates the old monitor by name), it works on the new monitor as well. If i let nvidia "detect" the new monitor (it recognized the brand and everything), then suddenly the HDMI connection is dead, any ideas? | 17:22 |
| invisime | karlpinc: I should turn off booting from usb, maybe? | 17:22 |
| dubstar_04 | karlpinc: no i have tried some old dvd only and i bought a new lite on drive | 17:22 |
| karlpinc | iSpoof: You should be able to tell it "make me a new partiton" and it should figure out where to start. (But I don't know how.) | 17:22 |
| mka | sunil1, there is an excellent multimedia howto at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=766683 | 17:22 |
| blackest_knight | sunil1 if you go to youtube it will ask to search for plugin agree and it will do it for you | 17:22 |
| karlpinc | invisime: yes, or change it so it boots off of the internal drive first. Or something like that. | 17:22 |
| invisime | karlpinc: thanks, I'll check it out. | 17:23 |
| iSpoof | i know where to start, but no where to end. is there a wildcard to tell use all available space or something like that? | 17:23 |
| karlpinc | iSpoof: fdisk and cfdisk default to using all the available space. Dunno about parted but I'd guess it does too. | 17:24 |
| xtjacob | does anyone know why virtualbox freezes the computer with hardware virtualization enabled? | 17:24 |
| iSpoof | going to cfdisk | 17:24 |
| blackest_knight | xtjacob: it does ? | 17:24 |

| rivers | Hi. I'm trying to set the resolution on an external monitor and the resolition is not available for selection in the display preferences configuration utility. Any ideas on how I can force it to allow a higher resoluton (the native of the panel is 1920x1080 but its only giving me up to 1650x1050) | 17:25 |
| blackest_knight | gparted is easier if you have a desktop | 17:25 |
| bullgard | [Karmic] gnome-volume-control-applet > »Sound Preferences« window > 'Choose an alert sound:' is asserted to Name=Default, Type=From theme. How can I determine what file (name?) will be played if an alert occurs? | 17:25 |
| xtjacob | blackest_knight: yes, on vista when the desktop starts to load, and it froze halfway through install debian. I have an acer aspire 4530 | 17:25 |
| karlpinc | blackest_knight: He started with gparted but couldn't figure it out. (and nobody helped.) | 17:25 |

| blackest_knight | iSpoof: do you want help using gparted | 17:27 |
| wertwert1984 | i did i didnt find anything helpful | 17:27 |
| iSpoof | gparted livecd doesn't allow me to create a fifth partition | 17:27 |

| sunil1 | how to watch videos on you tube.???? | 17:28 |
| trism | bullgard: I believe those sounds should be under /usr/share/sounds | 17:28 |
| iSpoof | and i couldnt find how to put the unallocated as a logical partition inside the xtended | 17:28 |
| mka | iSpoof, *use* | 17:28 |
| blackest_knight | iSpoof: if you start gparted you can select the outer extended partition and drag the side over the empty space to resize it | 17:28 |
| Jamed | sunil1: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 17:28 |
| mka | iSpoof, please use gparted, you can visualize the layout graphically and drag partitions interactively | 17:29 |
| iSpoof | ok ill give it a second try, gimme a min to reboot | 17:29 |
| blackest_knight | gparted is really smart you can even copy and paste a partition | 17:29 |
| mka | blackest_knight, for real? can you copy and paste? | 17:30 |
| blackest_knight | mka: surprisingly yes | 17:30 |
| mka | blackest_knight, wow | 17:30 |
| blackest_knight | want to copy an install to a bigger drive copy paste and resize | 17:31 |

| sunil1 | how to execute and run java programs????? | 17:32 |
| blackest_knight | meowsus: relabel it in windows | 17:32 |
| meowsus | blackest_knight, GENIUS | 17:32 |
| * meowsus slaps face | 17:32 | |
| iSpoof | mka: no, i just want to use the unallocated space, could be as a logical partition | 17:32 |
| mka | iSpoof, if that unallocated space is outside the extended partition, then resize the extended partition to engulf that unallocated space | 17:32 |
| sunil1 | how to execute and run java programs????? | 17:33 |
| Jamed | sunil1: usually a double click on the program should work, if not run "java <path to program>" | 17:33 |
| mka | iSpoof, ok, you can go | 17:33 |
| bullgard | trism: In /usr/share/sounds/alsa/ I only find 8 test sounds but no event sounds. | 17:33 |
| Jamed | !java | sunil1 see also this | 17:33 |
| ubottu | sunil1 see also this: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository | 17:33 |

| wertwert1984 | can someone please look at this and tell me what can be done to solve it | 17:35 |
| blackest_knight | sunil1: you might get on better with netbeanz | 17:35 |
| alankila | I recommend against the karmic packaged eclipse: according to my tests, the packaged eclipse is broken. | 17:35 |

| PrototypeX29A | hi, i am trying to get wlan running with some older notebook. "sudo lshw -C network" gives me some output like "-network DISABLED" and then some entries which hint that the disable device is indeed the wlan interface. What does it mean? Is there a driver missing? | 17:36 |
| bakarat | can i somehow trick the nvidia panel into thinking there is another monitor attached then there actually is? | 17:36 |
| sunil1 | then tell me how to install netbeanz | 17:36 |

| converge | sunil, install jdk after netbeans | 17:38 |
| iSpoof | btw mka: everything seems to be working superfine! | 17:38 |
| blackest_knight | bakarat: any monitor you can jumper some of the pins on the external vga port ( i made a dongle for this osx needed it ) | 17:38 |
| trism | bullgard: I was just using audacious to play them, sounded like the correct files to me | 17:38 |
| iSpoof | thanks for the advice with gparted | 17:39 |
| Dr_Willis | iSpoof: yes. Just make a /etc/fstab entry for it | 17:39 |

| fahadsadah | aschu: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. | 17:40 |
| blackest_knight | paschu: which netbook | 17:40 |
| Slyar_ | why I can't lock screen? | 17:40 |
| PrototypeX29A | sal_: no, it did not | 17:41 |
| paschu | blackest_knight, acer aspire one a 150 | 17:41 |
| iSpoof | Dr_Willis: where can i find the UUID for my ntfs partition? | 17:41 |
| PrototypeX29A | sal_: maybe wlan and lan do belong to the same chipset, and only the wlan part is disabled | 17:41 |
| Slyar_ | I knocked the lock screen button,but nothing happened | 17:41 |
| blackest_knight | paschu: ok its A BIT COMPLICATED which bios do you have ? | 17:41 |
| belak | What package is replaygain in? | 17:42 |

| sal_ | PrototypeX29A, what is the device mnfctr? | 17:43 |
| skilltik | hoalaa | 17:43 |
| blackest_knight | paschu: essentially the card readers will work if they have a card in them at boot, if you upgrade the bios the left one will work as you insert a card with the right one you need to add a boot option to grub | 17:43 |
| Slyar_ | ... | 17:44 |
| PrototypeX29A | sal_: the vendor of the Ethernet interface is via | 17:44 |

| sinthetek | the interface is still in ifconfig and iwconfig but if i try to set them manually they don't stick | 18:03 |
| Pici | omar: I need the url | 18:03 |
| omar | its like that when im installing that it goes like to a broken site and cand download that file | 18:03 |
| omar | and i was tryint to install wine | 18:03 |
| sinthetek | blakkheim that is what we used to use but hwen ubuntu switched to ath5k i assumed there was a reason so i wanted to try to stick with it | 18:03 |
| sinthetek | if i can't get it working again, though, madwifi is exactly where i intend to return :P | 18:03 |
| bullgard | belak: This works all right. -- Thank you very much for your help. | 18:04 |
| blakkheim | sinthetek: ok, suit yourself. i have ath5k blacklisted and use madwifi with no problems. :/ | 18:04 |
| omar | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/f12aed8d7 | 18:04 |
| omar | is that the url? | 18:04 |
| belak | bullgard: no problem | 18:04 |
| blackest_knight | sinthetek: are you fully updated apt-get update apt-get upgrade | 18:04 |
| sinthetek | blackest_knight i sorta thought if that were the case ubuntu would automatically update any modules that go with it | 18:04 |

| isabusl | hello8-) | 18:05 |
| isabusl | Ubuntu 9.10 ;-) | 18:05 |
| sinthetek | blackest_knight yeah, first and last thingl i tried :P | 18:05 |
| blackest_knight | sinthetek: sometimes it doesnt go that easy | 18:05 |
| PrototypeX29A | sal_: i only find proprietary drivers for nvidia and modem | 18:05 |
| sinthetek | hrmph, well maybe i just will head back to madwifi then as blakkheim suggested | 18:05 |
| Pici | omar: Are you able to connect to the internet from that computer? | 18:05 |
| omar | yes | 18:06 |
| omar | im currently talking to u from this computer | 18:06 |
| Trijntje | whats the flashing ubuntu sign called that you see after grub while booting? | 18:06 |
| blackest_knight | sinthetek: googling your problem might help | 18:06 |
| sinthetek | just wanted to put in erm... what's it called? "due effort" into determining what's wrong etc | 18:06 |
| PrototypeX29A | sal_: would i see more drivers if i were contected to the internet? | 18:06 |
| sinthetek | blackest_knight you mean that 2nd thing i tried? :P | 18:06 |
| e01 | how can i install libsdl_gfx with 9.10 | 18:06 |
| omar | and i have another like programs that use internet that im using now like pidgin etc... | 18:07 |
| sal_ | PrototypeX29A, not necessarily. what is your wifi hardware? | 18:07 |
| sinthetek | (still in the process of trying)* | 18:07 |
| blackest_knight | sinthetek: you would be surprised how many people bypass the google option | 18:07 |
| Trijntje | whats the flashing ubuntu sign called that you see after grub while booting? | 18:07 |
| weechat2 | HI | 18:07 |
| sinthetek | blackest_knight true true... :) | 18:08 |
| subito | how can i watch quicktime videos on internet using firefox? | 18:08 |
| blackest_knight | sinthetek: like the guy with an aspireone and card reader issues googling it would get him the answer i wrote it on the aspireone pages | 18:08 |
| jason | anybody running WICD as their wireless manager? Curious if its better than the default network manager. | 18:08 |
| sinthetek | welp, thanks for the suggestions, folks, i'll doublecheck timestamps on modules and kernel | 18:08 |
| PrototypeX29A | sal_: i don't know. I will try it later again, when i have internet | 18:08 |
| Cyber_Akuma | Trijntje: a splash screen? | 18:08 |
| blakkheim | jason: it is, by far | 18:08 |
| PrototypeX29A | sal_: thanks for your help | 18:08 |
| sinthetek | maybe rebuild driver just for kicks just in case | 18:08 |
| sinthetek | and continue googling | 18:08 |
| jason | blakkheim - have you used it for a long time? | 18:08 |
| blakkheim | jason: i've used it for years | 18:09 |
| Trijntje | Cyber_Akuma, I thought that was the name of the screen you can put behind the grub menu? | 18:09 |
| jason | blakkheim - good stuff man. thanks for your opinion. | 18:09 |
| Cyber_Akuma | A splash screen is basically a graphic that comes up while something is loading | 18:09 |
| P1R1 | How cant I back up all the files in my laptop to my desktop computer? | 18:09 |
| Cyber_Akuma | you mean the one with the ubuntu logo and the orange progress bar right? Thats a splash screen | 18:09 |
| blackest_knight | P1R1: rsync is very good | 18:09 |
| Cyber_Akuma | You cna disable it in grub's config | 18:09 |
| jason | blakkheim - one thing that attracted me to it was it can show you all of the different access points and their signal strength under the same SSID. Makes managing a wifi network at work 100% easier. I had no problems with NM, but I didnt want to use WICD if it looked cool but sucked in usability - ya know? | 18:10 |
| P1R1 | blackest_knight, thanks | 18:10 |
| tty13 | P1R1: graphical mode, is grsync | 18:10 |
| blakkheim | jason: yeah to be honest i think the default is horrible and they should change it to wicd | 18:10 |
| jason | blakkheim - do you think they ever will? I see a lot of stuff on google regarding people pushing for it. | 18:10 |
| blackest_knight | P1R1: rsync -r -v /source/folders destination | 18:10 |
| Trijntje | Cyber_Akuma, I know, but I want to set another image, but i need the name to google how to do that | 18:10 |
| omar | ohh and anoder thing i newb in ubuntu i started 2days ago | 18:11 |
| xtjacob | is there anyway i can set a delay to a start up program? | 18:11 |
| jason | omar - how you like it so far man? | 18:11 |
| blakkheim | jason: no idea, i don't use ubuntu anymore. it would be a welcome change though | 18:11 |
| Pici | omar: Can you please try running the following in a terminal: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow --force ttf-mscorefonts-installer | 18:11 |
| xxxxx | hi | 18:11 |
| _UsUrPeR_ | Hey all. I am having some issues with a local repo for 9.10 I put together. I am able to retrieve only portions of my internal ubuntu mirror. I can get *EVERYTHING* from karmic-security and karmic-updates, but running an aptitude update shows that I am not able to get to my "karmic main restricted" repository, though it's in the proper place. | 18:11 |
| jason | blakkheim - whatcha using now? | 18:11 |
| hikenboot | hello I have a neighbor with a machine he is using karmic and frequently his network goes down I don't see an icon in the top tray or one i can ask for him to click on to restart the networking. how do i add this icon, or isn't there one? | 18:11 |

| omar | i love ubuntu it kick windows as* | 18:12 |
| Cyber_Akuma | ask the question, don't ask to ask a question :P | 18:12 |
| dnivra | pyr0path: shoot away. someone would answer if they know. | 18:12 |
| omar | if i new ubuntu is dis cool i would never goten window man | 18:12 |

| Cyber_Akuma | hey omar | 18:12 |
| === hhlp_ is now known as hhlp | ||
| blakkheim | jason: yes | 18:12 |
| Cyber_Akuma | you realize that Ubuntu has a spellchecker right? :P | 18:12 |
| P1R1 | blackest_knight, so I could use rsync -r -v /home/mv/ destination? to copy all the files and folder? | 18:12 |
| jason | lol | 18:12 |
| jason | +1 | 18:12 |
| PrototypeX29A | is there a tool which allows a.) to freely rearrange the keyboard layout or b.) tells me which keyboard layout i need some interactive questioning? | 18:12 |
| nonexks | hello | 18:13 |
| hikenboot | blackest_knight, i see that icon but i don't see a way of restarting the networking no button for it in the applet | 18:13 |
| omar | yes? | 18:13 |
| dnivra | hello nonexks welcome to #ubuntu from all here. | 18:13 |
| P1R1 | blackest_knight, and how do I tell it that the destination is my other computer= | 18:13 |
| n_nick | Dr_Willis: U8.10 gives a lot of problem.. its trying to upgrade to linux.. version 2.17. and it does not work !! | 18:13 |
| blackest_knight | P1R1: yes pretty much will only copy the files which are not already on the destination | 18:13 |
| pyr0path | ok last night i shut my laptop putting it into sleep mode, my stupid girlfriend decided to use it while i was in the john, i get back, she held the power button doing a hard poweroff, and now nothing is working.. no compiz. there isnt even a network manager icon on the upper taskbar | 18:13 |
| trism | hikenboot: you can force network manager to restart by opening a terminal and typing sudo restart network-manager; | 18:13 |
| omar | what so i do next? | 18:14 |
| devD | how to remove an icon from application menu ? | 18:14 |
| blackest_knight | well P1R1 thats the fun bit | 18:14 |
| n_nick | i mean it dwnloads the packages and then the dpkg fail | 18:14 |
| tty13 | PrototypeX29A: you can check with | 18:14 |
| omar | just enter? | 18:14 |
| hikenboot | blackest night do you just uncheck and recheck it? | 18:14 |

| PrototypeX29A | tty13: yes, but i cannot try all | 18:14 |
| omar | :( | 18:14 |
| Scunizi | devD: right click the applications menu and choose edit.. you can do it from there. | 18:14 |
| PrototypeX29A | tty13: there are only about two keys wrong | 18:15 |
| jason | pyr0path - have you done anything else to troubleshoot it? Do you get any error messages? | 18:15 |
| devD | Scunizi, yes I found. | 18:15 |
| Prajwal | please guys anyone here to help me? | 18:15 |
| P1R1 | blackest_knight, thats so much...I will try to google a little bit and if I can not do it, I will came back and ask... | 18:15 |

| Scunizi | !ask | Prajwal | 18:15 |
| ubottu | Prajwal: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 18:15 |
| hikenboot | ok that one went right by me I was trying to write a script with networking restart and dhclient but it kept duplicating the dhclient process and killall dhclient wouldnt kill existing dhclient instances | 18:15 |
| jason | prajwal - cant you just right click anywhere on the desktop and add panel? | 18:15 |
| n_nick | U8.10 gives a lot of problem.. its trying to upgrade to linux.. version 2.17. and it does not work !! i mean it dwnloads the packages and then the dpkg fail | 18:15 |
| jason | scunizi - he did ask his question above :P | 18:15 |
| omar | in terminal wghen i did the comand u told me to do | 18:15 |
| silare | Is there a way for me to import the Albatross Xfwm theme to GNOME? | 18:15 |
| blackest_knight | P1R1: rsync on your laptop and easiest is to network the destination folder to your laptop especially if its running windows | 18:15 |
| tty13 | PrototypeX29A: you want to bind those 2 keys to somethinng specific ? | 18:15 |
| Prajwal | no ja | 18:16 |
| pyr0path | this is the weird thing, i tried doing a diagnostic and everything. opened a terminal typed iwconfig, ifconfig, everything is there and appearing to be working but i cant connect to the internet and there is no network manager on my upper taskbar | 18:16 |
| Prajwal | jason | 18:16 |
| pyr0path | and compiz wont start | 18:16 |
| Scunizi | jason: sorry.. missed it.. looked like your typical "help" call. | 18:16 |
| PrototypeX29A | tty13: yes, that would do it | 18:16 |
| dnivra | jason: scunizi's mistake's fair I guess; the channel's become all of a sudden active; even I missed it. | 18:16 |
| silare | pyr0path: Try Alt+F2... And then type nm-applet and see what that says. >.> | 18:16 |
| jason | scunizi - all good. I was about to suggest the same to him but I looked up and took notice of it. :P | 18:16 |
| omar | hey its like the places where it searches are down or some | 18:16 |
| Prajwal | if i run xfce4-panel i get the following errors http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m3a314f81 | 18:16 |
| jason | dnivra - I did too. I had a whole message typed out to him and noticed his Q at the last second. | 18:16 |
| Scunizi | jason: dnivra probably a !patience would have been better :) | 18:17 |
| hikenboot | blackest_knight, thanks i am going to try using the gui to do it its best for this user anyways, but would love to know why my script wouldnt restart it properly | 18:17 |
| n_nick | hi | 18:17 |
| silare | !impatience | 18:17 |
| PrototypeX29A | tty13: it is a notebook with german layout, but if i hit on the key with <>| i will get "Print screen" instead | 18:17 |
| n_nick | can someone help me place | 18:17 |

| n_nick | plz | 18:17 |
| nonexks | so im looking for some kind of software i can run on my unbuntu box to check my Lan for security hole's, open ports, etc... | 18:17 |
| dnivra | scunizi: now do it to n_nick:) | 18:17 |
| jason | nerdy_kid - might want to check out the #kubuntu channel. | 18:17 |
| tvaughn- | im trying to install ubuntu 9.10 server edition and i need help with the partitioning.. do i want to use guided use entire disk or guided use entire disk and setup lvm | 18:17 |
| m1dlg | any ideas guys on how i can get my pc (without restarting) to see new usb drives? it seems they will not work till i do | 18:17 |
| Bondi | nonexks use backtrack | 18:17 |
| pyr0path | wow thanks silare | 18:17 |
| pyr0path | worked like a charm | 18:17 |
| nonexks | Bondi: thanks | 18:17 |
| jason | pyr0path what fixed it | 18:18 |
| Bondi | no probs | 18:18 |
| nerdy_kid | jason no (no people over there), i just need to know how to mass-downgrade | 18:18 |
| jason | I was talking to like 4 people at once and missed it | 18:18 |
| xtjacob | nonexks: try nessus too | 18:18 |
| silare | pyr0path: Good to hear. ^_^ If all else fails... Run nm-applet in Terminal too and it should spew why it's breaking on you (if it is). xD | 18:18 |
| Scunizi | dnivra: can't tab his nick complete.. did he leave? I have messages turned off | 18:18 |
| blackest_knight | m1dlg: add disk mounter tool to your panel | 18:18 |
| Prajwal | jason, if i type (xfce4-panel) i get the panel visible temporarily with the following errors http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m3a314f81 | 18:18 |
| PrototypeX29A | tty13: one way would be to find the real keyboard type, another way would be to rewire what is wrong | 18:18 |
| pyr0path | jason, alt + f2 then typing nm-applet | 18:18 |
| jason | nerdy_kid - Hmm, I'm not sure. I mean, I'm a big Kubuntu guy (I dont touch gnome much anymore) but I dont even know how to downgrade KDE. I'm relatively new to KDE to be honest. | 18:18 |
| omar | sha256sum: WARNING: 1 of 1 listed file could not be read | 18:18 |
| omar | Checksum mismatch for andale32.exe, aborting! | 18:18 |
| Scunizi | nerdy_kid: mass downgrade can be done only with a reinstall | 18:18 |
| dnivra | Scunizi: yeah he just left as soon as I asked you to. BTW what chat client are you using which supports tab completion? | 18:18 |
| jason | pyr0path - I wonder though, if you reboot the laptop if everything will start like normal | 18:19 |
| pyr0path | im still wondering why it didnt work on the reboot | 18:19 |
| tty13 | PrototypeX29A: well.. i can't seem to find rewiring :( so, maybe try choose a layout, country germany, and there are not many options | 18:19 |
| nerdy_kid | Scunizi i.e. purge and install? | 18:19 |
| pyr0path | hmmm im wondering the same thing | 18:19 |
| nerdy_kid | jason darn. and i LOVE KDE. | 18:19 |
| PrototypeX29A | tty13: but there are a lot of options to choose the keyboard model | 18:19 |
| PrototypeX29A | tty13: i guess they are all wrong | 18:19 |
| Scunizi | dnivra: almost all the irc clients do.. I'm in a vm of kubuntu 9.10 right now using Quassel.. but irssi, xchat, weechat etc all support it.. if you're using pidgin you might consider a different client | 18:19 |
| jason | nerdy_kid - you and me both, brother :P | 18:19 |
| m1dlg | blackest_knight, i have that already - there not showing however it the usb flash drives show for 1 sec when i click format in the usb flash ubuntu maker thing.... | 18:20 |
| tty13 | PrototypeX29A: no, go to add a new layout and then select germany, ... | 18:20 |
| tty13 | thats few | 18:20 |
| nerdy_kid | jason LOL ;) | 18:20 |
| silare | Speaking of KDE... Is there a way to get KDE4 apps (not Qt3, Qt4 and KDE4) to mirror my GTK style? | 18:20 |
| Scunizi | nerdy_kid: well.. if you have a seperate /home then don't format that partition just the others. | 18:20 |
| dnivra | Scunizi: me using xchat. neat! I didn't know that. gotta try it out. | 18:20 |
| vonadhz | Hey | 18:20 |

| vonadhz | wat does this mean | 18:20 |
| dnivra | !ask | vonadhz | 18:20 |
| ubottu | vonadhz: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 18:20 |

| m1dlg | blackest_knight, ......usb startup disk creater | 18:20 |
| vonadhz | cp: omitting directory | 18:20 |
| PrototypeX29A | tty13: yes but there is no valid option, which will help me | 18:20 |
| dnivra | Scunizi, cool thanks mate for the tip. | 18:20 |
| nerdy_kid | Scunizi HECK not that kind of reinstall!!! im talking package reinstall! | 18:20 |
| vonadhz | i am trying to move something | 18:21 |
| vonadhz | and it says cp: omitting directory | 18:21 |
| vonadhz | what does this mean? | 18:21 |
| dnivra | vonadhz, are you using cp to move? | 18:21 |
| vonadhz | i think | 18:21 |
| dnivra | vonadhz, it's mv to move not cp; cp stands for copy | 18:21 |
| nerdy_kid | silare QTCurve will do it perfectly | 18:21 |
| silare | nerdy_kid: How do I get my hands on that? :o | 18:21 |
| tty13 | PrototypeX29A: well.. i dont know then.. sorry | 18:21 |
| PrototypeX29A | tty13: there must be a way to do an own keyboard layout | 18:21 |
| nerdy_kid | silare synaptic and google ;) | 18:22 |
| Scunizi | nerdy_kid: ah.. sorry.. almost sent you on a wild goose chase.. yea.. you can purge a package and reinstall an earlier one.. however if you've setup a 3rd party repo that has the latest version then the older won't show in synaptic or apt-cache | 18:22 |
| silare | nerdy_kid: It's not in the default repos, is it? | 18:22 |
| tty13 | PrototypeX29A: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ComposeKey | 18:22 |
| nerdy_kid | silare it is.... | 18:22 |
| tty13 | PrototypeX29A: but it doesn't seem trivial :P | 18:23 |
| silare | nerdy_kid: Okay... I think I need not use Google then, especially since Firefox and Midori have been segment faulting whenever I try to search anything... | 18:23 |
| nerdy_kid | silare ouch that must realy suck! | 18:23 |
| PrototypeX29A | tty13: the compose key i use on my other machine, but it is something different :) | 18:23 |
| silare | nerdy_kid: Yep. x_x Yet I haven't the time to fix it either. Big Linux-induced FML at the moment. | 18:23 |
| nerdy_kid | Scunizi ok, but no way to downgrade without uninstalling first? cause there a ton of packages that want to remove more packages that i want -- like other QT apps and its a pain in the butt | 18:24 |
| silare | nerdy_kid: anyways. thanks. My time's up, so I leave now. Laterz. | 18:25 |
| nerdy_kid | silare sure cya | 18:25 |
| PrototypeX29A | if found this tutorial to change the keymaps, but the dir /etc/X11/xkb/symbols does not exist anymore on Karmic, any hints where i can find the keymaps? | 18:25 |
| Scunizi | nerdy_kid: depending on what you want to install... it might be possible to have 2 versions at the same time.. I'm not familure with QT to know though. | 18:26 |
| Prajwal | ask | nerdy_kid, if i type (xfce4-panel) i get the panel visible temporarily with the following errors http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m3a314f81 | 18:26 |
| frostburn | can anyone suggest a mail client that works with ms exchange (calendar, notes etc) that isn't evolution | 18:26 |
| nerdy_kid | Scunizi crap, well thanks for your help, and wish me luck as i have a looonnnggg day ahead of me LOL | 18:27 |
| PiaFraus | Does your exchange support imap? | 18:27 |
| tty13 | PrototypeX29A: do a "locate keymaps", i found mine at /usr/share/rdesktop/keymaps | 18:27 |
| eeeandrew | frostburn: just search "email" in the software centre | 18:27 |
| tty13 | PrototypeX29A: though am wondering why are they in rdesktop ?? | 18:27 |
| PiaFraus | frostburn, Does your exchange support imap-access? | 18:28 |
| frostburn | PiaFraus, yes, but that doesn't sync calendar/notes etc does it | 18:28 |
| Prajwal | ask | ubottu, i lost the menu bars if i type (xfce4-panel) i get the panel visible temporarily with the following errors http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m3a314f81 | 18:28 |
| PrototypeX29A | tty13: maybe they are used only for rdesktop | 18:28 |
| PrototypeX29A | tty13: there is now a xml file in /etc/X11/xkb maybe it is used instead | 18:28 |
| mystery1234 | hello | 18:29 |
| PiaFraus | frostburn, No mail client except MS Outlook has full exchange support :( | 18:29 |
| jordy240 | hi | 18:29 |
| jordy240 | If I told you I hexadecimally changed the offset of the head_32.S on the kernel, what exactly would you do to fix the problem? | 18:29 |
| dabaR | Prajwal: sounds like the xfce4-mixer-plugin is failing. what packages also get removed if you uninstall that one? | 18:29 |
| Scunizi | frostburn: zimbra and they have a plugin | 18:29 |
| nerdy_kid | Prajwal cant help you man, sry. it sounds like the mixer applet is causing the trouble; id try deleting the config files for XFCE. maybe ~/.xfce? idk sorry man | 18:29 |
| tty13 | PrototypeX29A: that seems to just have the model list that was in the gui earlier | 18:29 |
| Prajwal | i dont have idea | 18:30 |

| mystery1234 | Does anyone know how to stop firefox from freezing | 18:30 |
| nerdy_kid | still 2009 over here... | 18:30 |
| PrototypeX29A | tty13: looks like it maps the model names to the string-id | 18:31 |
| jpds | mystery1234: Define freezing, it could be anything like Flash, etc. | 18:31 |
| omar | lil in here its 2 a clock | 18:31 |
| omar | i need to wait til 12 to get new year | 18:31 |
| nerdy_kid | Prajwal how? | 18:31 |
| omar | ubuntu owns (H) | 18:31 |
| Prajwal | yippe | 18:31 |
| Prajwal | nerdy_kid: restarted and the xubuntu diskcheck corrected it | 18:31 |
| dnivra | nerdy_kid: I know; time zones. don't worry mostly I'll be here to be wished when you hit 2010. | 18:31 |
| PiaFraus | HNY | 18:31 |
| PiaFraus | mystery1234, Are you sure, that the problem is with firefox? | 18:32 |
| mystery1234 | jpds, I think its flash. the browser freezes and then i have to kill firefox or force quit | 18:32 |
| nerdy_kid | dnivra lol wow love IRC i see :D | 18:32 |
| m1dlg | anyone know how i can stop and restart the USB? | 18:32 |
| Dr_Willis | amazing how 'flash' is like on the top 10 problems with linux month after month after month... | 18:32 |
| jason | adobe is great, isnt it? | 18:33 |
| Scunizi | mystery1234: did you install the flash-nonfree package *AND* the ubuntu-restricted-extras package ?? if you did you have 2 flash packages intalled.. remove the non-free version | 18:33 |
| jason | IMO flash sucks in windows too. But thats just me. | 18:33 |
| dnivra | nerdy_kid this channel is like the learning temple for me; learnt a lot in the past two weeks by merely staring at the screen. | 18:33 |
| DarkS7ar | hi guys | 18:33 |
| jason | haha, gotta love that. And read the forums. Reading the forums is great too. | 18:33 |
| Prajwal | :P | 18:34 |
| Jamed | jason: it's not just you... | 18:34 |
| DarkS7ar | i have problems with my webcam | 18:34 |
| tty13 | PrototypeX29A: try /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols | 18:34 |
| DarkS7ar | can u help me a little | 18:34 |
| mystery1234 | scunizi, im not really sure which of those packages i have installed. How can i check. | 18:34 |
| omar | is PICI there? | 18:34 |
| frostburn | Scunizi, neat i'll check it out | 18:34 |
| jason | jamed - haha, on the same page as me I take it? | 18:34 |
| nerdy_kid | dnivra yeah that'd be one way to do it LOL i prefer messing my system up like i just did grrrr cause then i have to fix it.... | 18:34 |
| Scunizi | mystery1234: open synaptic package manager and search for "flash" .. | 18:34 |
| Jamed | jason: i just hate the bad performance | 18:34 |
| jason | jamed - me too | 18:34 |
| packetcase | How do I get hardware information etc.? | 18:35 |
| mystery1234 | scunizi, ok i will do that | 18:35 |
| PrototypeX29A | tty13: yes, thanks | 18:35 |
| jason | jamed - the only problem I had with flash was full screening a youtube video with dual monitors on linux was horrible. It would full screen to the 2nd monitor ONLY and it wasnt centered right no matter what I did. | 18:35 |
| dnivra | nerdy_kid, oh I've messed up big time and lost 100GB or more of data. but that was a stupid thing on my part. | 18:35 |
| DarkS7ar | packetcase: sudo lshw | 18:35 |
| jason | jamed - however, I ended up switching to Kubuntu instead of Ubuntu, and ironically just by going to KDE I can youtube full screened on either monitor now with no issues. Weird... | 18:35 |
| xtjacob | anyone know why enabling hardware virtualization on an acer aspire 4530 makes the whole computer freeze | 18:35 |
| Prajwal | Happy New Year All you Guys :) | 18:36 |
| Prajwal | thanks for your concern to help me | 18:36 |
| packetcase | DarkS7ar: Thanks. | 18:36 |
| xtjacob | in virtualbox | 18:36 |
| Dr_Willis | jason: here it fullscreens to the first monitor only.. but if i click on the 2nd monitor - it Unfullscreens.. so its pointless.. | 18:36 |
| nerdy_kid | dnivra ooo havnt dont that (but i dont have 100gb to lose) havnt really had any massive data losses (yet :S) | 18:36 |
| DarkS7ar | anyone know why i cant use my webcam with hasciicam? | 18:37 |
| dnivra | nerdy_kid, perhaps we should stop; already a discussion few hours ago about "snow" went off-topic and astray; no offense. and I sort of started it:). | 18:37 |
| Jamed | jason: wow really wierd... i never used two monitors, but on my netbook you really feel the bad performance | 18:37 |
| jason | dr_willis - yeah, clicking anywhere else it turns off the full screen for me too. Go adobe! | 18:37 |
| DarkS7ar | i receive this error !! error in ioctl VIDIOCGMBUF: : Invalid argument | 18:37 |
| Padraig | Hi | 18:37 |
| Dr_Willis | jason: ive got some media-player apps for windows that wont even let me use 2 monitors.. it refused to run iof you have dual screen setups | 18:37 |
| jason | dr_willis - now THATS quality | 18:37 |
| P1R1 | blackest_knight, I try it with: rsync --progress -r -v /home/mv/Test/ mv@Chaos.local:/home/mv/TestFolder and I got an error: "ssh: connect to host Chaos.local port 22: Connection refused", what should I do? | 18:37 |
| DarkS7ar | are u so drunk that u can't read :D | 18:38 |
| mystery1234 | scunizi , i have flashplugin non free, adobe-flashplugin, flashplugin-installer | 18:38 |
| Scunizi | mystery1234: uninstall the non free one | 18:38 |
| nerdy_kid | dnivra LOL ok ill shutup u on ubuntu-forums? | 18:38 |
| Dr_Willis | jason: yep - its an app that lets me play from my DirectvTuner - only it #1 no multi monitor. #2 - i had toupgrade to the latest video drivers that supported 'disabling of video capture' -- and then.. McaFee AV reported the app as a Virus.. so i removed it :) | 18:38 |

| jason | dr_willis - gotta love that man! | 18:39 |
| mystery1234 | scunizi, will this action prevent my firefox from freezing | 18:39 |
| Dr_Willis | jason: and the Big media wonder why Torrents are so popular. | 18:39 |
| Anonym_ | I give up. It doesn't look like you can use an ipw2200 on ubuntu 9.10 | 18:39 |

| Anonym_ | I'm fed up | 18:40 |
| jason | dr_willis - I wouldnt have the slightest idea :P :P | 18:40 |
| Pici | omar: Yes? | 18:40 |
| Scunizi | mystery1234: if it's a flash issue probably.. ubuntu doesn't like 2 different flash programs/drivers installed at the same time.. for that matter I don't think any OS likes that. | 18:40 |
| nerdy_kid | dnivra ok well ill shutup for real now bye | 18:40 |
| blackest_knight | P1R1: could try a cpl of things 1 try ip address instead of chaos local you do need ssh server on the remote machine also sshfs can make this very easy | 18:40 |
| Scunizi | mystery1234: after removal you'll have to restart FF | 18:40 |
| Anonym_ | you can't make ieee80211 on 9.10 | 18:40 |
| mystery1234 | scunizi, ok i will restart and go to a flash heavy site and see what happens | 18:40 |
| Anonym_ | you can't make aircrack-ng on 9.10 | 18:41 |
| Scunizi | mystery1234: let me know. | 18:41 |

| Padraig | I can't open firefox! I press the button on the applications bar and click on firefox | 18:44 |
| Padraig | and nothing happens | 18:44 |
| mystery1234 | scunizi, same problem. the firefox browser still freezes | 18:44 |
| decomp505 | Padraig: what if you start if from command line? | 18:44 |
| Anonym_ | out of 1284 users....there's gotta be at least ONE person who's installed ieee80211 on 9.10 | 18:44 |
| Scunizi | Anonym_: installed by default.. if your wireless card isn't working then you need to research that card adn ubuntu | 18:44 |
| blackest_knight | Padraig: try firefox in a terminal | 18:44 |
| Scunizi | mystery1234: what site? | 18:44 |
| bigbn | hny | 18:44 |
| tty13 | decomp505, how about installing without connecting to network at all ? :) | 18:45 |
| decomp505 | can anyone help with minimal install downloads timing out? | 18:45 |
| wertwert1984 | anyone know anything about installing rc-browser witch is an open soures project that alows you to see mheg-5 app on your pc like fron bbc's red button | 18:45 |
| Padraig | i tried it in a terminal | 18:45 |
| Padraig | but "(firefox:19014): GLib-WARNING **: g_set_prgname() called multiple times | 18:45 |

| Padraig | " | 18:45 |
| decomp505 | ttyl13: how do I do that? The .iso I downloaded was only 12mb.. I'm assuming it has to download components. is there a minimal .iso I can use that doesn't need network? | 18:45 |
| reinis | I've broken my eee pc's wireless, and it can't find the wlan interface any more :( | 18:46 |
| reinis | any hints on how to debug this? | 18:46 |
| blackest_knight | Padraig: i'd go sudo synaptic then find firefox uninstall completely then reinstall it and try again | 18:46 |
| stalker_ | reinis, sudo iwlist scan | 18:46 |
| reinis | lshw -C network only shows the lan interface | 18:47 |
| stalker_ | reinis, oh you said the interface is gone? | 18:47 |
| tty13 | decomp505, oh i guess the concept of minimal is that they make you download the other stuff, and keep the iso to smallest | 18:47 |
| sal_ | Anonym_, what are you trying to do? | 18:47 |
| reinis | stalker_: yes, I can't find it | 18:47 |
| blackest_knight | reinis try shutdown completely to off and then restart (it might work ) | 18:47 |
| reinis | blackest_knight: tried it | 18:47 |
| stalker_ | reinis, how did you break it? | 18:47 |
| reinis | doesn't | 18:47 |
| mystery1234 | scunizi, its a gov site that i must log into to take an online course, the course will not load and it freezes my browser. I have to find another flash heavy site i guess if u want to test it | 18:47 |
| wertwert1984 | is there any other app i can use to look at mheg-5 on a dvb-s tv card? | 18:48 |
| Scunizi | Padraig: FF configs aren't removed on reinstall.. in your home directory there is .mozilla-something .. rename it .mozilla.something.backup and restart FF.. might jsut be a plugin issue | 18:48 |
| reinis | stalker_: it was some time ago so I'm not entirely sure, but I remember that it went away after I was setting up a static IP for the wired network | 18:48 |
| stalker_ | reinis, if your loading the correct modules i dont know what else you would do, the interface should at least show up | 18:48 |
| Scunizi | mystery1234: could be an IE specific site and not flash at all.. I have that issue on some sites that I have to use. | 18:48 |
| stalker_ | reinis, is it turned on? | 18:49 |
| stalker_ | reinis, maybe you hit the button on accident? | 18:49 |
| reinis | stalker_: it must be, there's no switch on the case. it's an eee pc 701 | 18:49 |
| Scunizi | mystery1234: you could try the FF version spooferr that will make a site think it's IE .. but if that site has hard coded IE stuff it won't make any difference | 18:49 |
| mystery1234 | scunizi, ill try and look for an emulator, and on, or something for IE | 18:49 |
| stalker_ | reinis, maybe you accident screwed up the module your loading | 18:49 |
| Scunizi | mystery1234: there's also ie4linux but that will also fail because of a lack of direct X | 18:50 |
| stalker_ | whats the equivelant of the module section of a rc.conf for ubuntu?what config file specifies modules loaded at boot time etc..?? | 18:50 |
| mystery1234 | scunizi, what is the best solution | 18:50 |
| reinis | stalker_: I don't know, but I think I might have disabled it on purpose because the network manager was nagging me with something about wireless while using wired | 18:50 |
| Padraig | how do I see hidden folders on the file browser | 18:51 |
| Pici | stalker_: /etc/modules | 18:51 |
| coz_ | Padraig, ctrl+h | 18:51 |
| monica---007 | hi everybody, New Year Greetings !!!!!!!!! | 18:51 |
| stalker_ | reinis, checkout /etc/modules i guess, see if your card is still there | 18:52 |
| reinis | stalker_: okay | 18:52 |
| Snump | what is the equivelant command to diskutil in Ubuntu? | 18:52 |
| reinis | stalker_: there's no /etc/modules | 18:52 |
| Snump | I tried installind it via apt-get but it wasn't found | 18:52 |
| Scunizi | mystery1234: run an old copy of win2kpro in a vm | 18:52 |
| Padraig | Scunizi: I found .mozilla but what now? | 18:52 |
| xtjacob1 | how do you fix the virtualbox freezing problem on 64-bit hosts? | 18:53 |
| magic_ninja | are there any forum moderators around here | 18:53 |
| Scunizi | Padraig: mv .mozilla .mozilla.backup | 18:53 |
| stalker_ | reinis, sorry dude, my comp uses rc.conf, i dont know what the equivelant for your system is | 18:53 |
| Scunizi | magic_ninja: you can log into #ubuntu-ops if you want to ask a direct question of them | 18:53 |
| Snump | let me ask another way... How can I get a list of currently mounted drives? I have to unmount a CD so I can run an md5 on it. | 18:53 |
| mr_daniel | how can I check of a specific package is installed? I am connected to a headless ubuntu 9.10 server, so I cannot use synaptic to figure that out | 18:54 |
| Snump | umount /dev/disk2 for example | 18:54 |
| dabaR | mr_daniel: aptitude search package | 18:54 |
| mlehner | Snump, mount shows you what is mounted. | 18:54 |
| bakarat | how to get rid of HDMI-static? i just want to turn it off if at all possible? | 18:54 |
| Scunizi | Snump: usually the cdrom is on /media/cdrom or /media/cdrom0 | 18:54 |
| wastrel | mount | 18:54 |
| monica---007 | dpkg -l |grep prog | 18:54 |
| dabaR | mr_daniel: if the first letter on the line is 'i' then it is installed | 18:54 |
| stalker_ | reinis, maybe you have to make a config file to load it, i have to make one in modprobe.d with every linux install to disable ipv6 | 18:54 |
| Snump | mlehner: mount? ok... I'm learnign 'nix on OSX so bear with me. heh | 18:54 |
| blackest_knight | !mount | 18:55 |
| ubottu | mount is used to attach devices to directories. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount | 18:55 |
| stalker_ | reinis, do you use ath5k or ath9k? | 18:55 |
| Scunizi | Snump: sudo umount /media/cdrom | 18:55 |
| Padraig | scunizi: thanks, it works now! | 18:55 |
| mlehner | running mount with no arguments or switches shows the currently mounted stuff | 18:55 |
| trism | mr_daniel: you can also do apt-cache policy package_name | 18:55 |
| === adam is now known as Guest38421 | ||
| stalker_ | reinis, just try modprobe yourdriver, maybe it will start showing up | 18:55 |
| Scunizi | Padraig: probably just a plugin.. if you look in /home for .mozilla you'll see that it's there again as well at the .mozilla.backup .. you can now "rm .mozilla.backup" to get rid of it | 18:56 |
| Snump | Scunizi: yeah, I knew that command I just had to fgure out where it was mounted. I figured it out - mount gave me allthe info I needed | 18:56 |
| mr_daniel | dabaR: apitude is not installed on the ubuntu 9.10 server | 18:56 |
| Snump | It was /dev/sr0 on /media/cdrom0 type iso9660 (ro,nosuid,nodev,utf8,user=justin) | 18:56 |
| stalker_ | reinis, hey, its /etc/modules.conf | 18:56 |
| dabaR | mr_daniel: unlikelty | 18:56 |
| blackest_knight | mr_daniel: apt-get install aptitude | 18:56 |
| Scunizi | Snump: cool.. since you're a mac user.. have you ever tried opening your browser and going to http://localhost:631 ?? you might be suprised. | 18:56 |
| Snump | so I did a sudo umount /sev/sr0 what does sr mean? | 18:56 |
| Scunizi | Snump: on the mac that is. :) | 18:57 |
| Snump | Scunizi: I'll check that out. | 18:57 |
| mr_daniel | apt-cache policy <pkg> works, thanks trism | 18:57 |
| reinis | stalker_: oh, okay | 18:58 |
| mlehner | Snump, sr is the device driver used for cdroms usually. google sr device driver linux for more technical info | 18:58 |
| reinis | stalker_: no /etc/modules.conf either :( | 18:58 |
| stalker_ | reinis, what driver you use? | 18:58 |
| stalker_ | reinis, or what card you got? | 18:58 |
| reinis | I'm not sure, sec | 18:58 |
| mr_daniel | why should I install apitude, when I already have apt-get and apt-cache? or are there advantages using apitude? I ask because dabaR and blackest_knight told me to do so | 18:59 |
| trism | mr_daniel: aptitude is probably already installed, it looks like you're spelling it wrong | 18:59 |
| omar | can some one help me? | 19:00 |
| mlehner | since ubuntu 9.10, when I save files in GVIM (vim-gnome).. my syntax highlighting gets turned off for that single file. anyone familiar with this problem? | 19:00 |
| reinis | stalker_: it's either atheros or ralink, I'm not exactly sure, and I don't know how to find the card in dmesg | 19:00 |
| Scunizi | mr_daniel: aptitude apt-get are both installed by default.. use the one you like the best | 19:00 |
| sal_ | !ask | omar | 19:01 |
| ubottu | omar: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 19:01 |

| Dr_Willis | ijesse: when using grub2 the hd#.# differ from when using grub1. I think grub2 starts counting Oneof those at 1, instead of 0, Grub1 starts at 0 for both. Check the grub2 docs/wiki if using grub2 | 19:25 |

| Umeaboy | Hi! | 20:39 |
| Umeaboy | Does it really matter where I've put a bin-file when wanting to update something from terminal? | 20:39 |
| wokka | I've got a usb drive that's "waiting to eject", and It's been there for about five minutes now with the write light flashing. Granted, it's a microSD, so I guarantee it's bottlenecked, but I'm curious as to see what's being written to it or to find out if it's in some kind of look or something. Any ideas? | 20:39 |
| FiReSTaRT | virustb: there might be a gui way, but it's not necessary if this tutorial works | 20:39 |
| ikonia | Umeaboy: not really | 20:39 |
| Umeaboy | Okey. | 20:40 |
| Drakeson | gnome-terminal has become horribly slow. Can you do "time gnome-terminal -x true" to test it? It takes around 3 seconds here! | 20:40 |
| FiReSTaRT | Umeaboy: not really as long as you specify the right path | 20:40 |

| muis | greets all, i got q... is it at all possible to backup all the updates and installed software from an existing ubuntu 9.10 to cd | 20:40 |
| Umeaboy | So if the file in this case is on the Desktop, I can just type ./jre.....blablablablabla & so on? | 20:40 |
| virustb | FiReSTaRT, will go tthrough the forum link u send me | 20:40 |
| ikonia | Umeaboy: full path to the desktop | 20:41 |
| Umeaboy | Okey, but doesn't that install Java to the Desktop-location? | 20:41 |
| Umeaboy | Instead of the original location? | 20:42 |
| ikonia | Umeaboy: no | 20:42 |
| FloodBot3 | !netsplit | 20:42 |
| FiReSTaRT | virustb: good luck.. btw if you want a gui editor instead of nano or whatever they're using, you can use gedit (gedit file_n.ame) | 20:42 |
| 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 | 20:42 |

| dabaR | Plant: in other words, the assumption that people will just move to 10.04. | 21:14 |
| jhb1608 | I liked 9.04, but it won't let me keep 9.04 anyways | 21:15 |

| dabaR | jhb1608: not very likely. | 21:15 |
| jhb1608 | well | 21:15 |
| jhb1608 | 9.10 is unstable anyways | 21:15 |
| tanath | blakkheim, disk usage analyzer says there's nearly 16Gb in there. >.< | 21:15 |

| jhb1608 | unstability* | 21:16 |
| Dr_Willis | Releases befor LTS tend to have all teh cutting edge changes in them.. to help get things fixed up for the LTS. thats just how things work | 21:16 |
| Plant | dabaR: Ok, that's fine. It's just that it make things a little complicated when supporting users from over a thousand miles away...and a bad upgrade would screw up the system. But, thanks. | 21:16 |
| marcham89 | hmm.. I switched to Ubuntu 9.10 b/c I found it so stable | 21:16 |
| Dr_Willis | marcham89: yep. same here. | 21:16 |
| jhb1608 | I liked 9.04 because of no login thingy | 21:16 |
| Dr_Willis | jhb1608: no login thingy? | 21:16 |
| jhb1608 | but now 9.10, it is unalterable | 21:16 |
| Dr_Willis | jhb1608: You can set GDM to auto liogin in 9.10 | 21:17 |
| jhb1608 | I can't alter the login dialog | 21:17 |
| jhb1608 | I meant login appearance | 21:17 |
| Dr_Willis | jhb1608: so gdm is not as themeable.. Woop-da-doo... | 21:17 |
| Dr_Willis | You can install the old gdm if you wanted. | 21:17 |
| jhb1608 | it is why I prefered 9.04 | 21:18 |
| jhb1608 | over the 9.10 | 21:18 |

| muhammad_ | how to check if i have openmp installed on my ubuntu machine ? | 21:42 |
| losha | tanath: overheating is almost always a hardware issue rather than software. Check your fans, heatsink, etc... | 21:42 |
| Coded1 | thanks guys it kinda works now but it won't connect to my WPA2 network just my other WEP network and it doesnt do it on boot either, i think it might have something to do with my /etc/network/interfaces, Ive pasted the output and my interfaces here http://pastebin.ca/1733451 | 21:42 |

| tanath | nerdy_kid, i can solve that prob. i need help with the logs | 21:43 |
| Rafael | soreau: so i run ubuntu, then insert the cd and from there i can install packages? | 21:43 |
| losha | tanath: you can delete it, it's probably just full of overheating warnings. But you still have to solve your overheating problem. Is this a laptop? | 21:44 |
| tanath | losha, nope. my 5-6 yr old desktop | 21:44 |
| RAMMOS | KALISPERA | 21:44 |
| soreau | Rafael: There are some essential packages that are on the cd, yes. You will have to edit your software sources as I described though | 21:44 |
| mister_roboto | itsnotstalking: actually you should wrap that with double quotes in case your standard output text has spaces in it | 21:44 |
| losha | tanath: intel or amd processor? Have you vacuumed clean the heatsink recently? | 21:45 |

| Operator` | Yes sure. it's brand new. it happened the other day aswell | 21:45 |
| tanath | losha, intel. all i did was take out the PSU for a bit. most of the alerts were 'cause i forgot power to the fan speed switch when i hooked it back up | 21:45 |
| Snump | Heat issues? I suggest Arctic Silver heatsinc compound. I used it on this laptop (AMD Sempron) and even running rc5 the fan barely runs. | 21:45 |

| Operator` | and the fact a reboot fixes it points at software... ? | 21:46 |
| mister_roboto | itsnotstalking: did you "su -" ? | 21:46 |

| tanath | nerdy_kid, zsh: file exists: /var/log/syslog | 21:49 |

| Callum_ | unless you want to overwrite something... | 21:49 |

| usr13 | jarray52: And is it really a hard lock up? Unrecoverable? As in no reponse at all from mouse or keyboard? But can you ssh into the machine from another? Can you ping it? etc...? Is it really totally locked up? or... not...? | 22:14 |
| drx | can you move an ubuntu linux drive from an Intel P4 system into an Intel Core i5 system and have it still work? | 22:14 |

| mister_roboto | jMyles: you can change DocumentRoot in /etc/apache2/sites-available/default (if you're using just the default setup) | 22:15 |

| P1R1 | Hey guys, I just installed Ubuntu 9.10 and Windows 7. What should I do now so I can choose witch to use? | 22:24 |
| mister_roboto | CodeTbone: you might find it easier to use a package management gui like synaptic to search for stuff | 22:24 |
| ortsvorsteher | P1R1, did you first install windows? | 22:24 |
| usr13 | P1R1: Which did you install first? | 22:24 |
| jj_galvez | evermind I found my own answer | 22:24 |
| P1R1 | Yes, Windows first | 22:24 |
| zleap | you should have a boot loader then | 22:24 |
| jarray52 | usr13: I'm guessing it is ext3 or fat32. I believe it contains data. It may contain something unpleasant as well. The drive does not crash other computers. Just this one. Furthermore, the drive worked okay on this computer previously. | 22:24 |
| CodeTbone | Ok, in the event that the book calls for something and I cant find it then I would just copy the individual file right, and how could I check for its dependenceies? | 22:24 |
| usr13 | P1R1: You should be presented with 2 choices when the grub boot loader comes up. | 22:25 |
| usr13 | jarray52: previous to what? | 22:25 |
| mister_roboto | CodeTbone: you're just asking for trouble installing such old packages from the book cd. you should just get the package from the karmic repo | 22:25 |
| pdragon_ | hi i was wondering what was the command to block or ban a host name from your server | 22:26 |
| mister_roboto | CodeTbone: if you have to ask about trying to do something like that, you're very likely to have problems | 22:26 |
| usr13 | jarray52: Try reformatting it. | 22:26 |

| bryce__ | I installed kubuntu-desktop and now my curser is the kde default although i have everything else back to normal | 22:26 |
| CodeTbone | I already did for some of the base ones but theres a couple hundred and I didnt want to have to search synaptic for all of them individually | 22:26 |
| mister_roboto | CodeTbone: just search for the same package names in the karmic repo and install those. you'll be far, far better off than trying to install those old ones from feisty | 22:26 |

| P1R1 | usr13, Now is working, dont know what happened before | 22:29 |
| usr13 | CodeTbone: as mister_roboto says... you need to know what you are installing, you can only use one application at a time, and do you really have a need for all of them? | 22:29 |
| grawity | pdragon_: What do you want to block it from? | 22:29 |
| === Guest93590 is now known as Dave2 | ||
| usr13 | P1R1: Well, it is working - that is what counts - Right? | 22:29 |
| pdragon_ | i want to block it from my server | 22:29 |
| * grawity facepalms | 22:29 | |
| CodeTbone | Probably not, I just dont like running off of the LiveCD whenever I need something | 22:30 |
| pdragon_ | i don't want it to beable to conect to it | 22:30 |
| P1R1 | urs13, yeah. Thank you | 22:30 |
| grawity | pdragon_: okay then. iptables -A INPUT -s somehost -j REJECT | 22:30 |
| mneptok | pdragon_: SMTP? HTTPD? SSHD? what? | 22:30 |
| usr13 | pdragon_: Yes, you can use iptables rule to block a particular IP address. | 22:30 |
| uiuiui | hey, how can i bridge two network interfaces on ubuntu? | 22:30 |
| Scunizi | How do I change the network name of my computer? | 22:30 |
| pdragon_ | thanks grawity | 22:30 |
| Andre | pdragon_: just dont connect to it | 22:30 |
| mattgyver | edit the /etc/hosts file | 22:30 |
| mister_roboto | grawity: waitaminute... he said connect TO it :) | 22:30 |
| uiuiui | i installed bridge-utils, however, interface does not start up | 22:30 |
| dekenx | which channel should I use for help? (video help to be specific) | 22:30 |
| Andre | dekenx: are you using ubuntu | 22:31 |
| dekenx | yes, well mint actually | 22:31 |
| mattgyver | Scunizi, sorry, edit the /etc/hostname file | 22:31 |
| grawity | mister_roboto: "don't want it to beable to conect to it" -- I interpreted it as "don't want <somehost> to beable to conect to <pdragon_'s server>" | 22:31 |
| dekenx | but the same thing basically | 22:31 |
| usr13 | pdragon_: /sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i eth1 -p tcp -s ###.##.###.## -j DROP | 22:31 |
| Scunizi | mattgyver: thanks.. | 22:31 |
| grawity | mister_roboto: Eh, it'll have the same effect anyway. | 22:31 |
| usr13 | pdragon_: or: /sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp -s ###.##.###.## -j DROP | 22:31 |
| mister_roboto | grawity: lol maybe the first "it" was his kid or something | 22:32 |
| usr13 | paissad-hp: etc... | 22:32 |
| paissad-hp | :) | 22:32 |
| grawity | mister_roboto: Eh, that rule will block all incoming packets - which includes TCP replies. | 22:32 |
| usr13 | paissad-hp: Sorry wrong nic | 22:32 |
| paissad-hp | np | 22:32 |
| mister_roboto | grawity: good point | 22:32 |
| grawity | mister_roboto: also, he said "from your server" | 22:33 |
| grawity | mister_roboto: so I took it as his own :| | 22:33 |
| dekenx | Andre: ubuntu 9.10 | 22:33 |
| Scunizi | mattgyver: and to take effect is that sudo /etc/init.d/network restart ?? or is it different now in 9.10 | 22:33 |
| mattgyver | Scunizi, its the same | 22:33 |
| Scunizi | k | 22:33 |
| Andre | dekenx: then this is the right channel | 22:33 |
| jarray52 | usr13: Sorry. My system crashed due to trying something with the usb drive. | 22:33 |
| mattgyver | Scunizi, its sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 22:33 |
| mattgyver | I didnt realize you didnt have the ing | 22:33 |
| CodeTbone | Also, Is it possible to mount HD's while running off a LiveCD? | 22:34 |
| Scunizi | mattgyver: good catch.. thanks | 22:34 |
| dekenx | Andre: ok thanks | 22:34 |
| Andre | ohoh | 22:34 |
| Scunizi | test | 22:34 |

| psibley | I have a netbook that I can't seem to get full hardware support working on. However, I have found several different distros that, when combined, will run all of my hardware properly (sound, video, webcam, hdmi). Is there any way I can "extract" hardware support from one distro and "add" it to another? Any help would be greatly appreciated | 22:57 |

| mahngiel | is there a terminal command to find out detail on your processor? | 23:32 |
| alankila | mahngiel: old favorite, cat /proc/cpuinfo | 23:33 |
| mka | macman_, the term rip is different to the term clone. dd command clones. | 23:33 |
| losha | plouffe: seeing the file names isn't the same as actually reading the files themselves. Clean the dvd with some windex and try again using vlc.... | 23:33 |
| coz_ | mahngiel, may cat /proc/cpuinfo | 23:33 |
| mahngiel | thank you two kindly | 23:33 |
| goose[PC] | how can I get my server to run a series of commands on startup? (run a bash script as a certain user on startup) | 23:34 |
| mahngiel | but sadly, this isn't giving me the info i need... i'm trying to figure out the optimal temp range. and i'm spinning my wheels on Intel's site | 23:34 |
| CodeTBone | I have a CLI program in a .tar.lzma format....how can I run this? | 23:34 |
| plouffe | losha I tried several DVDs already, cleaned them, I used totem, vlc and k9copy to try to play them. Always the same error | 23:34 |
| goose[PC] | CodeTBone: it's compressed :p uncompress it | 23:35 |
| CodeTBone | I understand that, but whats the .lzma? | 23:35 |
| Gilos | mahngiel: you can also try sudo lshw -c cpu | 23:35 |
| macman_ | mka: what should i do for this ipod then | 23:35 |
| FunnyMan4595 | I'm trying to get Ubuntu to display in higher resolution than it apparently wants to. Graphics driver (intel) appears to be correct, but it is detecting the max resolution as 1280x800, which is way low. | 23:35 |

| goose[PC] | CodeTBone: just a type of compression | 23:35 |
| mka | macman_, what do you want to accomplish? | 23:35 |
| CodeTBone | Ah, new to me. THanks | 23:36 |
| BellinXFelon | mneptok : that didnt work either | 23:36 |
| macman_ | mka: rip all music from it | 23:36 |
| mahngiel | Gilos: again, nothing that will give me specific info. guess i'll just have to go to HP chat. | 23:36 |
| FunnyMan4595 | At the moment, I'm trying to add the correct modelines to xrandr, but I can't seem to get either of the suggested tools to duplicate the existing modelines. | 23:36 |
| Dr_Willis | macman_: you could dd the filessstem to a file.. but thats not going to 'rip' music from it. | 23:36 |
| CodeTBone | Should I extract the directory into my bin? | 23:36 |
| plouffe | losha that would be my second toshiba whose > | 23:37 |
| Dr_Willis | CodeTBone: id make a 'work' directyory and extract it in there to see whats in it. | 23:37 |
| plouffe | losha that would be my second toshiba whose DVD player faults after 2 years, I guess I will just stay away from TOSHIBA then | 23:37 |
| CodeTBone | Its just a CLI programming calculator | 23:37 |
| plouffe | NO MORE TOSHIBA | 23:37 |
| Gilos | mahngiel: what were you looking for that you didn't find? | 23:37 |
| mka | macman_, use rhythmbox or terminal | 23:37 |
| macman_ | yea | 23:38 |
| macman_ | im looking for a terminal command MK-BB | 23:38 |
| macman_ | err .. mka | 23:38 |
| mahngiel | Gilos: processor number, specifically. that's the only thing on Intel's site that would differentiate my processor from the others on this table | 23:38 |
| mka | macman_, I am not used to ipods but if you plug it in, does it become mounted like a normal filesystem? | 23:39 |
| NamVet | I can see original desktop files etc. in terminal but they do not appear on the present desktop. | 23:39 |
| losha | plouffe: after 2 years of heavy use, a failure wouldn't surprised me. DVD readers contain very high precision moving part technology, much less reliable than solid state electronics. The Samsungs seem to get goot reviews on newegg... | 23:39 |
| macman_ | mka: yes | 23:39 |
| plouffe | losha I barely ever use the DVD player at all | 23:39 |
| CodeTBone | Whats the syntax for uncompressing at a terminal? | 23:39 |
| Pici | CodeTBone: uncompressing what? | 23:39 |
| mka | macman_, then simply copy the files to your computer | 23:39 |
| tlvb | Hey, Have anybody else had the problem of trying to run a program (e.g. chmod +x foo; ./foo) and had the terminal respond that the file or folder does not exist? In this case it is the etqw installer. | 23:40 |
| CodeTBone | A '.tar.lzma' | 23:40 |
| Dr_Willis | !info unp | CodeTBone | 23:40 |

| losha | plouffe: Dunno what to tell you. Some readers play various disks better than others. Er, you do have the decryption libraries installed don't you? | 23:41 |
| mka | macman_, you can even use terminal, I think ther is a folder named ipod_control and inside there are many folders including the one named Music whose contents are the folders you need to copy | 23:41 |
| woodyjlw | I get some errors on boot and wonder if I can get help with them? | 23:41 |

| meydlo | happy new year;) | 23:44 |
| al_ | mister_roboto: yes, but the rsync, if still running needs to be killed.....losha - exactely | 23:44 |
| mister_roboto | al_: losha: huh? it just runs to completions and stop. i use it on my wife's computer to do her backups | 23:45 |
| Doonz | hey guys, can someone point me towards a how-to for upon a system start up having 3 screen sessions for 3 different users | 23:45 |

| mister_roboto | al_: you don't want to stop the daemon if that's what you're using | 23:45 |
| mahngiel | bah, sorry | 23:45 |
| Dr_Willis | Doonz: put the proper commands in rc.local is one way. | 23:45 |
| bill | anyone here know how to play streaming music from fubar.com? i could do it when i had windows but now i cant in ubuntu | 23:45 |
| mister_roboto | al_: rsync isn't something that continuously synchronizes stuff, if that's what you think | 23:45 |
| al_ | mister_roboto: I am talking about rsync on a nas with a fairly slow processor. After a weekly full backup it may take 2-3 days to rsync | 23:45 |
| woodyjlw | Lid argument) 60.757092 ata1.00: status: {DRDYERR} .....has anyone ever had a problem booting and see errors like this? | 23:46 |
| Doonz | Dr_Willis: what would be the command | 23:46 |
| D-coy | m4v, incas a tu madr xD | 23:46 |
| mister_roboto | al_: ummmm why are you doing a full backup with rsync? | 23:46 |
| Dr_Willis | Doonz: i think you would have to do somthing like 'su -u bubba -c whatever &' (not sure on that) | 23:46 |
| al_ | mister_roboto: thats why it needs to be stopped, and "resumed" | 23:46 |
| NamVet | Can't access files in the PLACES folder | 23:46 |
| Dr_Willis | Doonz: since things ran in rc.local get ran as root. You sould need su or sudo to switch the command tobe ran by a user | 23:46 |
| goose[PC] | how can I get my server to run a series of commands on startup? (run a bash script as a certain user on startup) | 23:46 |
| mister_roboto | anyway, you can easily just kill it with cron as well, a few minutes later or whatever | 23:47 |
| losha | al_: like I said, you'll have to explicitly start and stop rsync at the appropriate times. If you do it right, when you restart it, it will pick up where it left off.... | 23:47 |
| mister_roboto | al_: anyway, you can easily just kill it with cron as well, a few minutes later or whatever. nothing about cron precludes doing that | 23:47 |
| seidos | NamVet: can you access PLACES from a terminal? | 23:47 |
| goose[PC] | also, when writing a bash script, how can I start a program with detached screen, or autodetach after startup? | 23:47 |
| mister_roboto | losha: actually it gracefully can handle being killed and restarting properly | 23:47 |
| al_ | mister_roboto: I have a NAS which receives weekly full and hourly (between 9-5) incremental backups. I need to copy this data from the NAS to a USB attached disk | 23:47 |
| mister_roboto | losha: read the docs for it | 23:47 |
| mka | al_, you can create a BASH script file and create a lockfile just like vim editor is doing, and if that lockfile exists, then rsync is running and otherwise rsync is not running | 23:47 |
| NamVet | Yes I can | 23:48 |
| bill | anyone know of a plugin for firefox that will play streaming music , i used to use the windows media player plugin for firefox but cant find anything that runs on ubuntu | 23:48 |
| mister_roboto | rsync was DESIGNED to be safely killed and restarted | 23:48 |
| dino- | Having a problem with a system freshly upgraded to 9.10 and now hanging on boot. | 23:48 |
| seidos | NamVet: wish I could | 23:48 |
| xims | :-D happy new year 2010 | 23:48 |
| hicham | i have alt+f2 switches me to tty2 | 23:48 |
| Gilos | mahngiel:you still around? | 23:49 |
| dino- | Not seeing anything obvious in dmesg or /var/log/messages Did try the dpkg repair, which found nothing to do. | 23:49 |
| mahngiel | Gilos: indeed | 23:49 |
| NamVet | don't know how to transfer personal files via terminal so I can reinstall Karmic Koala | 23:49 |
| al_ | mister_roboto: or the other way would be some fancy script to copy the backup files, only retaining 2 weeks worth of backups immediately after the weekly full. THis will be a lot faster than rsync, THEN use rsync on the incrementals each night. Would that work? | 23:49 |
| psylon | Does openbox work with netbook remix? | 23:49 |
| mahngiel | Gilos: i'm chatting with HP support | 23:49 |
| dino- | Boot reports some things starting, hangs right after something about checking battery status. | 23:49 |
| Gilos | mahngiel: use sudo dmidecode|less | 23:50 |
| seidos | NamVet: I use scp to copy personal files over a network to another ubuntu machine | 23:50 |
| CodeTBone | I cant get unp to unpack it | 23:50 |
| * seidos is ill | 23:50 | |
| mka | bill, totem-mozilla ? | 23:51 |
| mister_roboto | al_: i don't think so if rsync didn't do the original full backup. but you might get something to work if you hack at it long enough :D | 23:51 |
| NamVet | I have a 8gb flashusb also a 40gb external hard drive | 23:51 |
| bill | totem ok i will try it | 23:51 |
| Dr_Willis | CodeTBone: i dont recall seeing a .lzma package in AGES... | 23:51 |
| mahngiel | Gilos: all i get is a blank terminal... should it take long to process? | 23:51 |
| dino- | wondering if this sounds familiar to anyone here | 23:51 |
| al_ | mister_roboto: oh really...I didnt know that. If it didnt put the file there, then it rejects it? stink | 23:51 |
| Dr_Willis | !info unlzma | 23:51 |
| ubottu | Package unlzma does not exist in karmic | 23:51 |
| CodeTBone | Lol | 23:51 |
| Gilos | mahngiel: you have to hit space bar to scroll through | 23:52 |
| mister_roboto | al_: i don't know for sure and cannot say without trying it | 23:52 |
| mahngiel | there's nothing to scroll through, the thing's blank. let me kill it. | 23:52 |
| CodeTBone | man Says to run without args to see supported formats and when ran nothing outputs | 23:52 |
| Gilos | mahngiel "sudo dmidecode|less" | 23:52 |
| NamVet | seidos, sorry to hear your ill. real bummer during the holidays. | 23:53 |
| drunkncrew | i think this is an easy question, hopefully it has an easy answer as well. I am installing wimax drivers, and the tutorial i'm following says to type " --sysconfdir=/etc " in my current directory where the directory "/etc" exist. However when I type that command into terminal I get "No such file or directory" am I typing something wrong in the command? | 23:53 |
| mka | NamVet, you can use try to "cp -rvi ~ /media/USBDEVICE/" | 23:53 |

| al_ | mister_roboto: right. but you can see what the advantage of doing it that way (copy/synch combo) would be right? Youd complete the weekly full backup quickly, then leave rsync to take care of the hourly incrementals.... | 23:53 |
| mahngiel | that worked | 23:53 |
| al_ | mister_roboto: if it worked.... | 23:53 |
| philabole | ok why won't my ubuntu conect to the internet? | 23:53 |
| axon | hello | 23:53 |
| NamVet | okay I'll give it a try | 23:53 |
| axon | good new year | 23:53 |
| NamVet | TY | 23:53 |
| axon | it's 0:53 in germany | 23:54 |
| axon | so | 23:54 |
| mister_roboto | al_: yes, i understand why you want to go that route. just never tried it and am not sure of the behavior | 23:54 |
| drunkncrew | or, can anyone tell me what the command " sysconfdir=/etc " does? | 23:54 |
| Gilos | mahngiel: great... otherwise you were going to have to pop the case. here's where I found it. http://www.secguru.com/article/finding_hardware_details_your_linux_machine_without_using_screw_driver | 23:54 |
| CodeTBone | Decompressed the lzma with unlzma but not finding an untar prog | 23:54 |
| mahngiel | Gilos: thanks. too bad this idiot with HP isn't so apt | 23:55 |
| NamVet | Thanks for the help. Leaving now. | 23:55 |
| mahngiel | Mike **** : I would I would appreciate if you please clarify the issue a little more. | 23:56 |
| * mahngiel laughs | 23:56 | |
| mister_roboto | al_: it looks like you can use the --checksum option to compare checksums, in whcih case i can see it working | 23:56 |
| axon | i moved the partitions a little bit ... now my computer second computer got problems to boot, ... in fact he can't mount the home directory ... i know that this is now on /dev/sda5 and not longer on /dev/sda6 ... how do i tell this ubuntu? | 23:56 |
| munk | I mounted an iso in nautilus now what path will I find it in terminal | 23:57 |
| losha | drunkncrew: that isn't actually a command by itself. It looks like a flag that's belongs to a larger command? Any idea what that might be? | 23:57 |
| Dr_Willis | axon: the uuid may have changed. you may need to correct the /etc/fstab file. | 23:57 |
| munk | nautilus says its in archive:///blabla/ | 23:57 |
| Dr_Willis | !uuid | axon | 23:57 |
| ubottu | axon: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) | 23:57 |
| al_ | mister_roboto: right. As you say, I need to have a fiddle :-) | 23:57 |
| Dr_Willis | munk: it might be in /home/username/.gvfs/SOMETHING | 23:58 |
| axon | !Dr_Willis , ubottu : thanks a lot i'll try this | 23:58 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 23:58 |
| drx2 | How do you get past the "starting up" after moving a SATA Ubuntu drive from a P4 system to a Core i5 system? | 23:58 |
| munk | Dr_Willis, THANKS! | 23:58 |
| mister_roboto | al_: it would be easy to test that. just copy one (big) file, rsync using checksum and verify that it doesn't transfer it | 23:58 |
