zoidfarb | acicula, I PM'd you some text from a readme file because I didn't want to spam the chat, I hope that's ok. (I could use pastebin if you prefer) | 00:00 |

chobbs | brianherman, That's what I was after - thanks! | 00:01 |
acicula | zoidfarb: pastebin is probably better | 00:01 |
acicula | zoidfarb: maybe someone else knows the answer, i saw it, but dont know really | 00:01 |
* chobbs loves 'sudo !!' | 00:02 |
zoidfarb | acicula, thanks, I appreciate it. | 00:02 |
Italian_Plumber1 | doesn't look like rtorrent was incluced in the updates: http://pastebin.com/m7dc1327d | 00:02 |
funkyHat | LjL: I know it's possible to do it, I remember setting the volume step, I just can't find the option | 00:02 |
my_haz | how do i map the page-forward and page-back buttons on my keyboard? How do i find out what those keys actually are? | 00:02 |
funkyHat | I've searched gconf a couple of times | 00:02 |
LjL | funkyHat, the first bug report *mentions* the relevant gconf option | 00:03 |
nightsjammies | Do I want it to Create an ISO or BIN/CUE image, create disc structure, or Only convert film files to compliant MPE files?' | 00:03 |
funkyHat | LjL: oh! | 00:03 |
mercutio42 | I need to talk to someone that understands grub2. I suspect there's something wrong with my grunb.cfg file | 00:03 |
LjL | funkyHat: it also says it doesn't work anymore, though. | 00:03 |
chuckmurphy1 | acicula: would I be better off in the forum? | 00:03 |
zoidfarb | Italian_Plumber1, you could see if some other repositories might have a newer version. Perhaps Mediubuntu? You can also compile a newer version from source, but that's less convenient. | 00:04 |
funkyHat | LjL: great, that worked ⡈) | 00:04 |
funkyHat | I am just rubbish at searching, apparently | 00:04 |
acicula | chuckmurphy1: probably, or try google, afaik its a bogstandard chip with the same issue of installing it | 00:04 |
LjL | funkyHat: really ;( | 00:04 |
mercutio42 | more specifically where should the "set root = (hd0,x) point to?? | 00:05 |
zoidfarb | Italian_Plumber1, the thing is that 8.04 is pretty old at this point, and they're mostly going to do security and bug-fix updates, not feature-add updates. | 00:05 |
chuckmurphy1 | ok. thanks anyway | 00:05 |
acicula | !tls | 00:05 |
arand | Geoffry: look at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Splash%20Images%20&%20Theming | 00:05 |
acicula | !lts | Italian_Plumber1 | 00:05 |
ubottu | Italian_Plumber1: 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) | 00:05 |
acicula | so 8.04 is not "old | 00:05 |
Italian_Plumber1 | zoidfarb: can you point me to information on how to use other repositories? I'm not sure what I'm looking for. ... and your'e saying that they're likely only doing security updates on hardy even though it's LTS? | 00:06 |
acicula | but it will not receive major package updates beyong security fixes, its ment to be stable, not up to date | 00:06 |
mercutio42 | my hard drice has two partitions only: sda1 and sda2=swap. Do that reads (hd0,0) and (hd0,1) or instead (hd0,1) and (hd0,2)?? | 00:06 |
zoidfarb | Italian_Plumber1, that's exactly what they mean by LTS. It will have long-term support to be stable and secure, but not have the newest, fanciest features. | 00:07 |
Italian_Plumber1 | oic | 00:07 |
zoidfarb | Italian_Plumber1, let me see if I can find you some other repos to check. | 00:07 |
=== cpg|brb is now known as cpg |
Italian_Plumber1 | and to use those I just put them in my /etc/apt/sources.list file and update? | 00:07 |
mercutio42 | any guesses? please | 00:07 |

CountDown | maco: Did you look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbiquityEncryptedFilesystems ? Seems like LUKS + LVM is possible from the standard installation CD with a little massaging. | 00:08 |
CountDown | Or am I misinterpreting something? | 00:08 |
h00k | why might my window decorations break upon login? I'm on Karmic, 64bit, latest kernel, nvidia drivers on a nvidia 8600mgt card. This just started happening, I haven't changed anything. I have to go to System -> Appearance -> and re-check the second box to get window decorations back, I'd rather not use fusion-icon as a bandaid to this problem | 00:08 |
zoidfarb | Italian_Plumber1, yeah. Although maybe check on their website first to see if they have what you need, because there's no point in adding tons of extra repos if it's not going to have what you want. What version of rTorrent did you want? | 00:08 |
zoidfarb | http://linuxappfinder.com/package/rtorrent | 00:09 |
maco | CountDown: you're right. criminey thats complicated. i said the desktop cd didnt support it since it didnt have that stuff installed | 00:09 |
Valinux | . | 00:09 |
Italian_Plumber1 | I've already talked to the folks in the rtorrent channel and they say that this feature is available in verion 086 | 00:09 |
CountDown | maco: Cool, because I'm having trouble understanding how to do it from the alternate without horking my /home dir. :) | 00:09 |
LinuX2half | how do I resize my partition by half? | 00:10 |
Valinux | lol | 00:10 |
maco | CountDown: alternate should have an option to keep /home instead of formatting it... | 00:10 |
LinuX2half | I'm using the Live CD and I don't know how to read the space | 00:10 |
Valinux | you guys should be worried about kernel updates.. really.. | 00:10 |
CountDown | maco: Hm, I didn't see that, but I may not have looked everywhere. | 00:10 |
LinuX2half | I'm trying to use half the partition for NTFS and the other for ext3 | 00:11 |
Slix | Hmm.. I need to split a file into parts. Any good program to do that? | 00:11 |
CountDown | maco: I couldn't really figure out how to get the alternate installer to recognize the root, home, and swap on the encrypted disk. | 00:11 |
sync3times | Slix, spit | 00:11 |
Slix | 7zip! | 00:11 |
sync3times | Slix, split | 00:11 |
Slix | OoO? | 00:11 |
Valinux | google. | 00:12 |
maco | sync3times: is Slix a bog? | 00:12 |
maco | *bot? | 00:12 |
zoidfarb | Italian_Plumber1, I'm not having much luck on a repo, but I found this, which should work for you: http://www.howtoforge.com/compile-rtorrent-from-svn-ubuntu-8.04-hardy-heron | 00:12 |
sync3times | srry | 00:12 |
maco | sync3times: nevermind | 00:12 |
maco | Slix: sorry | 00:12 |
Slix | What? | 00:12 |
Slix | A bot came into #ubuntu to ask a question? | 00:12 |
maco | Slix: you responded so quick to sync3times i thought you were a bot :P | 00:12 |
CountDown | Someone just failed the Turing test. | 00:13 |
Slix | I didn't respond to him. xD | 00:13 |
sync3times | Slix, why do you need to split it up, to span media boundries? | 00:13 |
Slix | Yep. My flash drive is only 2.1gb | 00:13 |
Slix | The file is 8gb | 00:13 |
sync3times | Slix, the split command will break up a file into smaller chunks that can be glued back together with the cat command | 00:14 |
Slix | This file is going onto windows. | 00:14 |
Italian_Plumber1 | thanks, zoid... I'll try that. | 00:14 |
zoidfarb | Italian_Plumber1, you don't have to get the source from SVN, though. You can download a .tar.gz of the 0.8.6 release | 00:14 |
Geoffry | arand i read through that but i'm not very sure how to do it. i tried it but i didn't understand the instructions | 00:14 |
Italian_Plumber1 | oh I can use SVN. I love SVN. | 00:14 |
zoidfarb | Italian_Plumber1, I can't tell if that's sarcasm or not, but good luck, in any case | 00:15 |
Slix | Gah | 00:15 |
Slix | 7zip isn't appearing. | 00:15 |
sync3times | Slix, same machine, or different machine. You can mount your windows onto your linux | 00:15 |
Slix | Diff machine | 00:15 |
Italian_Plumber1 | no certainly not sarcasm. I use svn to manage my music collection. Use it extensively at work. | 00:15 |
sync3times | slix, networked? | 00:15 |
acicula | Italian_Plumber1: rsync not practical? | 00:16 |
LinuX2half | how do I resize my partition | 00:16 |
LinuX2half | I want to have two partition | 00:16 |
Valinux | LinuX2half, for what? | 00:16 |
h00k | LinuX2half: you can use gparted | 00:16 |
Italian_Plumber1 | svn is one of those extermely well thought out software projects that seems to be managed perfectly. | 00:16 |
LinuX2half | I am using gparted | 00:16 |
solifugus_ | Where is ExampleApplication.h ?? | 00:16 |
luks_ | Valinux: for partitioning your harddisk | 00:16 |
solifugus_ | On linux. | 00:16 |
Thijs` | question, do you need to make a backup of the mbr record when you're dd-ing a drive ? | 00:16 |
Slix | Gah | 00:16 |
LinuX2half | But whenever I create another partition it gave me an error | 00:16 |
Thijs` | *and which you want to restore later | 00:17 |
Italian_Plumber1 | I like being able to track past changes and delete music from the HEAD revision without actually using it. | 00:17 |
Slix | Where does 7zip show up after installation? | 00:17 |
CountDown | Italian_Plumber1: I agree, though I'm thinking of switching over to git, or at least trying it out. Have you tried it? | 00:17 |
luks_ | LinuX2half: did you run gparted as root? | 00:17 |
Italian_Plumber1 | using it = losing it | 00:17 |
h00k | LinuX2half: if you're currently running from that partition, you will need to use a liveCD | 00:17 |
Valinux | Slix, your joking right? | 00:17 |
acicula | solifugus_: locate can help you find files, but im guessing it doesnt exist as its not provided by ubuntu, read the tutorial/book you are reading on where to find it? | 00:17 |
h00k | LinuX2half: and partition from there. | 00:17 |
LinuX2half | I'm am using the Live CD right now | 00:17 |
luks_ | try gksu gparted | 00:17 |
Slix | I'm rushing and panicking. :P | 00:17 |
solifugus_ | acicula, locate cannot help because I just installed ogre | 00:17 |
Italian_Plumber1 | git ..... is that version control? | 00:17 |
acicula | solifugus_: updatedb | 00:17 |
Thijs` | Italian_Plumber1 yes | 00:18 |
obiwan_ | hi i'm back | 00:18 |
LinuX2half | luks_: then? | 00:18 |
CountDown | Italian_Plumber1: Yes. It's distributed version control. | 00:18 |
acicula | or dpkg-query -L <package> i think will show you what files were installed where | 00:18 |
Thijs` | Italian_Plumber1 see: http://git-scm.com/ | 00:18 |
h00k | Slix: the binary is in /usr/bin, you can use it from the command line, or use file-roller | 00:18 |
Ratizar | !mint | 00:18 |
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) | 00:18 |

vlt | Thijs`: When you dd a drive you also dd the mbr (as I said earlier) | 00:18 |
LinuX2half | So if I want to create an NTFS partition what should I do first? | 00:18 |
Ratizar | !multisupport | 00:19 |
LinuX2half | I need to resized my partition to half | 00:19 |
sync3times | Slix, python -c "import SimpleHTTPServer;SimpleHTTPServer.test()" will create a simple webserver on your linux machine, you could browse and grab the file onto windows | 00:19 |
Italian_Plumber1 | what makes git better than svn? | 00:19 |
LinuX2half | Format the allocate space to NTFS correct? | 00:19 |
Ratizar | !mintsupport | 00:19 |
ubottu | Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu, please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 00:19 |
acicula | Italian_Plumber1: different approach, speed, best read a comparison | 00:19 |
Slix | That sounds like a pretty odd solution. | 00:19 |
h00k | LinuX2half: resize your current partition, and then create an NTFS partition on the blank space. | 00:19 |
Geoffry | i just want to know how to edit my usplash theme, can someone please help me? | 00:19 |
CountDown | Italian_Plumber1: I'm not sure if it is better. I have a lot of svn experience, only a little git experience. However, git is distributed, svn is not. | 00:19 |

Slix | Gah. I thought 7zip would have a gui. | 00:20 |
=== NuclearFish-1 is now known as NuclearFish0 |
LinuX2half | h00k: okay so I drag the blue box to half and then the gray area will be the NTFS partition right? | 00:20 |
vlt | LinuX2half: Resize whatever is on that partition now. | 00:20 |
blakkheim | Slix: why would you need one | 00:20 |
h00k | Slix: sure, try file-roller! | 00:20 |
vlt | LinuX2half: Then resize the partition itself | 00:20 |
h00k | LinuX2half: the gray box will probably be unused space, create a new partition and make it NTFS | 00:21 |
Geoffry | i tried that dr_willis | 00:21 |
Slix | I tried that, but it isn't letting me split it up. | 00:21 |
Geoffry | didn't work for me | 00:21 |
obiwan_ | hey guys, grub2 splash image won't work. I've followed the steps up to the letter, and won't work. Changed the line at /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme with the image name, added the path to the img, (it's an grub2 adapted image from grub2-splashimages package, so img ain't the problem), did update-grub and it finds the image, but in the boot time nothing happens | 00:21 |
Slix | Aha | 00:21 |
Slix | Yes! | 00:21 |
vlt | Italian_Plumber1: According to git's creator it is "svn done right" | 00:21 |
LinuX2half | h00k: okay I have created an ntfs partition with 36.12GB and ext3 with 37 GB | 00:22 |
Italian_Plumber1 | well maybe I'll give it a try sometime. | 00:22 |
LinuX2half | does that sound right? | 00:22 |
Italian_Plumber1 | right now I just wanna get this rtorrent thing working. | 00:22 |
luks_ | LinuX2half: it does ;) | 00:22 |
h00k | hy might my window decorations break upon login? I'm on Karmic, 64bit, latest kernel, nvidia drivers on a nvidia 8600mgt card. This just started happening, I haven't changed anything, fairly recent 64bit install. I have to go to System -> Appearance -> and re-check the second box to get window decorations back. | 00:22 |
h00k | LinuX2half: sure! | 00:22 |
luks_ | LinuX2half: but i think you have to accept changes or something in gparted | 00:22 |
LinuX2half | luks_: okay then all i had to do now is to apply the changes, running sudo power | 00:22 |
acicula | h00k: if you disable alle effects does it still happen? | 00:23 |
h00k | acicula: well, that's what it is at when I login. | 00:23 |
luks_ | LinuX2half: hopefully, yes :) | 00:23 |
eyl | is there anyway i can figure out the weird *-*-*-* format of a selected font from a gui window that shows all my fonts (not xfontsel)? | 00:23 |
acicula | h00k: did you activate the nvidia hardware driver? | 00:23 |
h00k | acicula: I disabled effects, I do still have decorations, yes | 00:23 |
h00k | acicula: yes | 00:23 |
h00k | acicula: yes, i've restarted | 00:23 |
LinuX2half | Alright now's its checking the filesystem for any errors | 00:24 |
acicula | h00k: disable it and see if the problem still occurs or enable it and see if the problem still occurs? | 00:24 |
h00k | acicula: acicula yes, I'm using the 185 drivers | 00:24 |
h00k | acicula: if I disable effects, I still have decorations. This is fine. The problem is that when I login, they're disabled and window decorations are broken. | 00:25 |
acicula | h00k: as in the window borders and such dissappear? | 00:25 |
coolcat | how can I know witch architecture I have on my machine? | 00:25 |
h00k | acicula: when I log in, yes. | 00:25 |
acicula | h00k: seems like metacity or compiz crashes on login then? | 00:26 |
sync3times | coolcat, arch? | 00:26 |
h00k | acicula: yes, this is the problem. | 00:26 |
soreau | h00k: Do you have anything starting compiz related in your session? (sys>prefs>startup programs) like fusion-icon or compiz? | 00:27 |
h00k | soreau: negative. | 00:27 |
coolcat | sync3times, thank you | 00:27 |
h00k | acicula, soreau: I didn't need anything previously, all-of-a-sudden it started dying on login. | 00:27 |
arand | mercutio42: in grub2 it would be hd0,1 and hd0,2 | 00:28 |
LinuX2half | so after I shrink the partition and add the ntfs partition, I can still able to access my Ubuntu OS correct? | 00:28 |
h00k | I don't have ccsm-settings-manager for any other special plugins installed, I don't want/need this, I don't want to have to use fusion-icon. | 00:28 |
acicula | h00k: other then switching the graphic driver i have no solution, if it persists with both the open source and binary nvidia driver best to post it on the forum or report it in launchpad | 00:28 |
mercutio42 | arand: thanks. I just found out as well =] | 00:28 |
arthurmaciel | hi | 00:28 |
soreau | h00k: If you set None in sys>prefs>appearance>visual effects then re-login, does the problem persist? | 00:28 |
luks_ | LinuX2half: yes | 00:29 |
arthurmaciel | is there any project management opensource program for ubuntu/linux? | 00:29 |
vlt | LinuX2half: If the file system was resized too, yes. | 00:29 |
LinuX2half | okay its shrinking the filesystem | 00:29 |
LinuX2half | after scanning for errors in the /dev/sda1 file system | 00:30 |

luks_ | LinuX2half: do you want to install windows on your ntfs partition? | 00:30 |
LinuX2half | luks_: Yes planning to | 00:30 |
luks_ | LinuX2half: ok, remember to reinstall grub because windows overwrites the master boot record | 00:31 |
soreau | h00k: Well that's strange.. can you open gconf-editor and see if there's anything set for desktop/gnome/session/required components/window manager? | 00:31 |
luks_ | LinuX2half: otherwise you are only able to boot into windows | 00:31 |
h00k | soreau: coincidentally, Gnome also forgot to open folders with Nautilus, I had to re-set that manually | 00:31 |
arand | LinuX2half: is the ntfs going to be the first partiton after? | 00:31 |
h00k | soreau: windowmanger's value is 'compiz' | 00:32 |
LinuX2half | arrand: the ntfs is New Partition #1 | 00:32 |
srv | How do I get my ext4 hard disk passphrase? | 00:32 |
luks_ | LinuX2half: is the ntfs partition created before are after your linux partition? in the hard disk layout (sorry for my english) | 00:32 |
LinuX2half | luks_: I think its after the linux partition | 00:33 |
h00k | soreau: I also did blast my gnome-settings (rm -rf .gnome2, .gconf, .gconfd) to see if it was anything in there and start with a default gnome session, this didn't fix it. | 00:33 |
arand | LinuX2half: ok, just because windows (at least XP afaik) can get grumphy if it isn't installed to the layout-wise first partition. | 00:34 |
h00k | arand: I've had XP on a not-first partition and had it fine | 00:34 |
ojacobson | Is there a PPA or some other repo that has PHP 5.3? | 00:34 |
luks_ | arand: i think it works flawlessly if you create a ntfs with linux and install windows on it | 00:34 |
ojacobson | It's mentioned in the Karmic pre-release chats but there aren't any links :( | 00:34 |
h00k | arand: the only problem I've had is software backup stuffs overwriting the mbr, especially with grub2 | 00:35 |
arand | h00k: LinuX2half: hmm, ok, might be wron on that then. | 00:35 |

codyduncan | Hello again, friends. Two problems today, but I'll take it one at a time, firstly: Anyone feel like helping me to enable WPA encryption on my wireless connection? Wireless networks are detected and listed, so the wireless card is functional in the most basic sense, however, when going to connect to any particular network, I am not given the option of entering a WPA passphrase, only WEP,... | 00:36 |
codyduncan | ...and as my router is set to use WPA, this is a problem. I am trying to get this going on a fresh Karmic install on a Toshiba A15-S157 notebook. | 00:36 |
acicula | !wifi | codyduncan | 00:37 |
ubottu | codyduncan: Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 00:37 |

ChogyDan | ojacobson: while it would be unwise, it is in debian experimental | 00:37 |
codyduncan | @luks_ yes, I did, to no avail | 00:37 |
ojacobson | ChogyDan: hmm, I wonder how badly adding that to an ubuntu machine would break things | 00:37 |
LinuX2half | the ntfs is created as the primary partition | 00:37 |
ojacobson | Well, it's a VM! Let's find out | 00:37 |
genii | codyduncan: Is wpasupplicant package installed? | 00:37 |

ChogyDan | ojacobson: no one knows, thats why it is there :) | 00:38 |
usb_problem | How can I get around that? | 00:38 |
h00k | usb_problem: perhaps get more space | 00:38 |
luks_ | LinuX2half: thats ok, but primary is a type of partition, it doesnt mean its the first partition on your hard disk | 00:38 |

I have an HP Mini 1000 and when I try to install the broadcom driver fix for the wireless it keeps asking me to insert /cdrom/ --- problem is, I don't have a cdrom (only able to use the USB way of installing)... is there a way to do apt-usb or apt-get w/out being online and point it to what I'm trying to install from the usb live (cd) | 00:39 |
usb_problem | So? | 00:39 |
ChogyDan | Chard1: is the usb plugged in? | 00:40 |

Chard1 | and then i go to synaptics and try to install the broadcom.. and it eventually tells me to insert /cdrom/ | 00:40 |
ChogyDan | Chard1: hmmm, and it keeps asking for the cdrom? check your sources, maybe delete the cdrom, and add the usb | 00:40 |
jMyles | acicula: Hi again! I don't really understand the routing. How do I set it up? I have webmin installed. | 00:41 |
Chard1 | :Jordan_U .. No propriety drivers are in use on this system.. is what it says | 00:42 |
djuggler | U8.04Desktop. I've installed Postfix. changed main.cf to relay mail.comcast.net 587 added a file in sasl directory to include comcast username and password. Still getting relay problem. What have I missed? | 00:42 |
acicula | jMyles: normally its not really needed, your normal broadband router will take care of it all? | 00:42 |
ojacobson | ChogyDan: you don't know where the debian repo GPG key is hiding by any chance, do you? | 00:42 |
usb_problem | I want to either install the minimal cd to usb or remaster the live cd. The first doesn't work, I need help. | 00:42 |
acicula | so no need to explicitly route through a system with two nics | 00:42 |
ChogyDan | ojacobson: no idea | 00:42 |
Jordan_U | Chard1: What is the exact chipset of your wireless card? ( "lshw -C network", look for BCM43XX, and tell me what the "XX" is ) | 00:43 |
codyduncan | Okay, since the typically-suggested wpasupplicant method seems to be of no use, is wicd a viable option? How would I go about using that instead (typical apt-get install wicd?) | 00:44 |
arand | Chard1: Do you have the CD selected if you check software sources (gksudo software-properties-gtk)? | 00:44 |
amad | So, i'm a little confused... Is dynamic tick supported on 64 bit, and is the tick still ultimately limited by the kernel option CONFIG_HZ? | 00:44 |
Chard1 | well, now i can't find broadcom source to install... i just installed the netbook remix version... (i've tried std i386 9.10 ubuntu... and it works when i use the live cd - but quits after the install)... tried the MEI version of ubuntu from HP, but it doesn't support the verizon wireless.... and now the netbook remix... doesn't show any wireless activity whatsoever | 00:45 |
Chard1 | i'm in synaptics now... looking around | 00:45 |
acicula | codyduncan: wicd is just a different approach of controlling the wireless, the underlying issue is the driver, if it doesnt work in nm it wont work in wicd either(most of the time anyway) | 00:45 |
Geoffry | does anyone know how i can change my splash screen? | 00:46 |
Geoffry | please help me | 00:46 |
LinuX2half | its taking a long time to shrink the file system.. | 00:46 |
techwizrd | Chard1: What card do you have? My broadcom firmware was in the b43-fwcutter package | 00:46 |
Jordan_U | Chard1: What is the exact chipset of your wireless card? ( run "lshw -C network" in a terminal , look for BCM43XX, and tell me what the "XX" is ) | 00:46 |
Chard1 | if i go to add cdrom it just says please insert a disc in the drive | 00:46 |
luks_ | LinuX2half: thats nothing to worry about | 00:46 |
jMyles | acicula: not sure what to do next. | 00:46 |
Harrison_Bergero | hello all. My 9.10 install is a bit buggy. I dont have any tabs at the top of any programs that I run. How do i fix this | 00:46 |
ChogyDan | Chard1: yeah, its screwy | 00:47 |
Chard1 | that's a good question.. but i don't know the exact chipset | 00:47 |
Chard1 | it's just a hp mini 1000 | 00:47 |
Harrison_Bergero | and...my terminal is all white. Cant see anything that I type | 00:47 |
Jordan_U | Harrison_Bergero: System > Preferences > Appearance, try turning off desktop effects | 00:47 |
acicula | Chard1: follow Jordan_U 's suggestion to find out.. | 00:47 |
techwizrd | Chard1: lshw -C network | 00:47 |
h00k | soreau: I tried gnome-wm as a windowmanager instead of compiz, I'm having the same thing | 00:47 |
Chard1 | k, one sec | 00:47 |
techwizrd | Chard1: paste that into a terminal and tell us the output | 00:47 |
Harrison_Bergero | Jordan_U Wow...thanks | 00:48 |
acicula | h00k: did you disabling/enabling the hw driver? | 00:48 |
Jordan_U | Harrison_Bergero: np | 00:48 |
Chard1 | it says BCM4312 802.11b/g | 00:48 |
ojacobson | ChogyDan: No good. Thanks for the suggestion, though. | 00:48 |
codyduncan | acicula: thanks. I am now looking to see if wpasupplicant even supports my wireless card. Where can I find a profile of my hardware to compare it to the supported list? | 00:48 |
Chard1 | the netbook is not able to be brought online yet | 00:48 |
Chard1 | no physical ethernet and the wireless is not working yet | 00:49 |
h00k | acicula: the driver in jocket-gtk, you're meaning? Yeah. | 00:49 |
acicula | codyduncan: ( run "lshw -C network" in a terminal , | 00:49 |
techwizrd | Chard1: Use the b43-fwcutter package | 00:49 |
ChogyDan | Chard1: do you know what packages you need? you can just install the debs straight from the usb | 00:49 |
acicula | h00k: system-administration->hardware drivers | 00:49 |
cowgarden | how to move a panel to the other monitor? | 00:49 |
acicula | codyduncan: drag | 00:49 |
Chard1 | if i type b43 in the search | 00:49 |
h00k | acicula: Yeah, that'd be jockey-gtk. Did this. | 00:49 |
acicula | codyduncan: err wait, dunno actually | 00:49 |
Chard1 | nothing | 00:49 |
acicula | h00k: oh wasnt aware it was called that | 00:50 |
gh0s7 | hey guys for some reason i keep getting an error in ubuntu that says "video mode not supported" when booting from the live cd to try and install | 00:50 |
h00k | acicula: yep :) | 00:50 |
Chard1 | i'm pretty sure i know or knew which ones... but they're no longer listed like they were on the std 9.10 as they are now under the netbook remix | 00:50 |
techwizrd | Chard1: Try this DEB: http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/b/b43-fwcutter/b43-fwcutter_012-1_i386.deb | 00:50 |
devin | can an amd duron processor 700 mhz, 640 mb ram 2 partitions of 20 gb each support ubuntu 9.1? | 00:50 |
codyduncan | acicula: I'm sorry, what? | 00:50 |
acicula | devin: yeah, not gonna be fast though | 00:50 |
techwizrd | Chard1: That's what I use on all my laptops (all of the have Broadcom 43xx cards) | 00:50 |
devin | i know | 00:50 |
gh0s7 | devin: it should run | 00:50 |
devin | i tried to install a wubi | 00:51 |
devin | but i get an error | 00:51 |
devin | :( | 00:51 |
acicula | codyduncan: run "lshw -C network" in a terminal to find out what specifically is your wireless device | 00:51 |
Chard1 | after i download that... how do i actually install it from the usb | 00:51 |
Geoffry | please somebody help me | 00:51 |
songer | hello | 00:51 |
songer | i want to make my usb bootable | 00:51 |
acicula | !ask | Geoffry q | 00:51 |
ubottu | Geoffry q: 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. :-) | 00:51 |
Jordan_U | Chard1: Ok, first download this file and put it on your USB drive: http://jordanu.dyndns.org/b43karmic.tar | 00:52 |
Geoffry | does anyone know how i can change my splash screen? | 00:52 |
ChogyDan | Chard1: /pool/main/b/b43-fwcutter/b43-fwcutter_012-1_i386.deb | 00:52 |
acicula | !usplash > Geoffry | 00:52 |
ubottu | Geoffry, please see my private message | 00:52 |
gh0s7 | anyone know why i keep getting a video mode not supported error? | 00:52 |
Jordan_U | ChogyDan: That won't install without a network connection | 00:52 |
ChogyDan | Chard1: just go there on the livecd, and double click | 00:52 |
Chard1 | ok i've downloaded both files and put them on usb | 00:53 |
Jordan_U | ChogyDan: For legal reasons that package just contains a script that will download the real firmware from the internet | 00:53 |
ChogyDan | Jordan_U: oh, I see! | 00:53 |
Chard1 | ok | 00:53 |
snap-- | for legal reasons | 00:53 |
acicula | its legal to download, not legal to repackage and distribte | 00:53 |
Slix | How can I specify in terminal that I want to go back a level, then another to another folder? | 00:54 |
acicula | hence not in a package, but pointed to by an installation package, read the license for more info | 00:54 |
Geoffry | sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u just gives me http://pastebin.com/m22502a4a | 00:54 |
Dr_Willis | Slix: cd ../foo | 00:54 |
acicula | Slix: cd .. ? | 00:54 |
maco | Slix: cd ../otherfolder | 00:54 |
Slix | two dots! Thanks | 00:54 |
Chard1 | ok, remember the netbook is not online yet | 00:54 |
acicula | Slix: . = current directory ..= previous directory | 00:54 |
acicula | in the tree anyway | 00:55 |
tritium | acicula: no, - is the previous directory. .. is the parent directory. | 00:55 |
Chard1 | :ChogyDan that failed to work | 00:55 |
acicula | tritium: yeah - is the previously visited directory | 00:55 |
Chard1 | and now that package installer seems to be stuck... can't close it.. one sec | 00:56 |
techwizrd | Chard1: Have you have tried the link to the b43-fwcutter package I sent you. | 00:57 |
Geoffry | !usplash | 00:57 |
ubottu | To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork | 00:57 |
Jordan_U | Chard1: Ok, now put b43karmic.tar on your desktop ( on the netboot ) | 00:57 |
Geoffry | sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u just gives me http://pastebin.com/m22502a4a | 00:57 |
Chard1 | i am about to... i put it on usb | 00:57 |
codyduncan | acicula: I am looking at this list of information, and while I can see the section for the wireless card, there is no product name listed. | 00:57 |
Geoffry | can anybody tell me what to do? | 00:57 |
tooth | configuration question: where is the file kept that configures "prefered applications" ? I freshly installed ubuntu, copied over my ~ directory, and it clobbered some setting, and I am not sure WHERE that is kept | 00:58 |
Dr_Willis | Geoffry: you actually did install/add some custome artwork? | 00:58 |
Chard1 | ok done | 00:58 |
techwizrd | codyduncan: You can't find the card name on 'lshw -C network' ? | 00:58 |
Chard1 | i put it on the desktop | 00:58 |
Chard1 | b43karmic.tar | 00:58 |
Geoffry | Dr_Willis: I downloaded a splash screen from gnome-look, I don't know what to do with it | 00:59 |
Jordan_U | Chard1: Once it's on your desktop run "sudo tar -xvf Desktop/b43karmic.tar -C /lib/firmware/" ( make sure to type that exactly, capitalization counts ) | 00:59 |
Geoffry | it's a .so file | 00:59 |
codyduncan | techwizrd: No. There is other information, but nothing of a product name. | 00:59 |
Chard1 | ok, it did a bunch of stuff | 00:59 |
Dr_Willis | Geoffry: theres some guidea i recall at the gnome look page. is somthing you see for like 3 sec on boot up worth all this hassle? usplash is getting phased out in thenext release i belive also. | 00:59 |
Dr_Willis | Geoffry: you basically copy it to the right location | 01:00 |
Geoffry | how? | 01:00 |
Chard1 | i guess it unpacked it to that dir | 01:00 |
techwizrd | codyduncan: Can you paste the output somwhere? Like pastie.org or dpaste.com? | 01:00 |
Dr_Willis | Geoffry: sudo cp whatever whever and i dont know where it goes. | 01:00 |
Geoffry | oh | 01:00 |
Jordan_U | Chard1: Good, now try rebooting and wireless will hopefully be working | 01:01 |
jMyles | I am at a dead end with internet connection sharing. My gateway can ping both sides but the packets, they do not flow. | 01:01 |
Chard1 | ok, will give it a go | 01:01 |
Geoffry | Alright, well I googled all over the place, idk a guide | 01:01 |
codyduncan | techwizrd: http://pastie.org/773049 | 01:01 |
meatbun | is there a command from an internal app to print this table http://izecksohn.com/pedro/pub/index.html | 01:01 |
Dr_Willis | Geoffry: any guide maybe out of date for 9.10 also. Its not really worth fighting with. | 01:02 |
Geoffry | I'm using 9.04 | 01:02 |
Chard1 | negative | 01:02 |
Chard1 | if i click the network up top... nothings listed | 01:02 |
codyduncan | techwizrd: if the iwconfig would be of any use: http://pastie.org/773053 | 01:03 |
Chard1 | it says wired network.. but there's not actually an ethernet port on this thing | 01:03 |
techwizrd | codyduncan: That's weird. It doesn't list your product or vendor. It does say your firmware is Lucent/Agere 8.10 or something | 01:03 |
zavi | My klamav keeps on telling me that encrypt.zip files are a virus but I suspect that they are not; any ideas? thanx | 01:04 |
cvd_ | can i put a pci express 2.1x16 on a pci express 2.0x16 mobo, will work corectly? | 01:04 |
Dr_Willis | zavi: try some of the online virus scanner sites, when in doubt get a second oponion | 01:04 |
Chard1 | i will try it again with the install of 9.10 ubuntu full | 01:04 |
Chard1 | instead of the netbook remix release | 01:04 |
cvd_ | ati video card | 01:04 |
zavi | have you any examples of alternatives? | 01:04 |
Jordan_U | Chard1: Is there any error message if you run "sudo modprobe b43" ? | 01:04 |
Chard1 | and do what you told me to do | 01:05 |
codyduncan | techwizrd: any guesses? | 01:05 |
acicula | cvd_: bit offtopic, 2.1 doesnt exist, 1.1 does and is backwards compatible with 2.0, so should be fine | 01:05 |
Planetary | alsa is giving me problems | 01:05 |
techwizrd | codyduncan: Nope. I'm googling Lucent/Agere though. | 01:05 |
Chard1 | no error.. just gives me the command line again | 01:05 |
tonsofpcs | ok, so I know of X2VNC and Synergy and Win2VNC and all that... is there something similar that takes over all input and sends it directly until it gets an escape code (needs to run on linux and connect to windows, vnc is fine, other things may work too) (I don't need to switch between machines like synergy2, I don't need video return like vnc) | 01:05 |
cvd_ | acicula, it exist http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814131327 | 01:05 |

Jordan_U | Chard1: Can you try "sudo rmmod b43 && sudo modprobe b43" ? | 01:06 |
zavi | Thanx I'll look online | 01:06 |

Chard1 | ERROR: Module b43 does not exist in /proc/modules | 01:06 |

Jp82191 | or rhythm box | 01:09 |
acicula | Jp82191: those are entirely different things | 01:09 |
karma | okay. I rephrase. is there a fix for the way that pulseaudio ferociously eats memory in Karmic, while still using pulseaudio? | 01:10 |

acicula | pulseaudio is the distro default, so best just leave it as is | 01:10 |
codyduncan | techwizrd: http://www.debianadmin.com/enable-wpa-wireless-access-point-in-ubuntu-linux.html (seems pretty close to the problem) | 01:10 |
Jp82191 | i don't have pulseaudio on my laptop or desktop | 01:10 |
Jp82191 | and audio works fine | 01:10 |

karma | Jp82191: you removed it? | 01:10 |
Jp82191 | karma, yes but i don't remember what i installed in its place | 01:11 |
nick125 | If you aren't using Pulseaudio, you're probably using direct ALSA | 01:11 |
karma | don't need to install anything in its place. it is a convenience, not a neccessity. | 01:11 |
Jp82191 | yup | 01:11 |

dkulchenko | Hi all! I'm trying to get the Blue Snowball mic working with Jaunty. It works fine through ALSA, and when I look at the microphone through the PulseAudio Volume Control, I can see the volume bar moving and it selected as default. But when I change Sound Capture in System->Preferences->Sound to PulseAudio Sound Server, it doesn't work (playback through PulseAudio works fine). Any ideas? | 01:13 |
codyduncan | techwizrd: would it be better if I tried installing ndiswrapper since it seems like this wireless card, though supported generally, is giving me crap? | 01:13 |
Jp82191 | if it works with ALSA stick with ALSA | 01:14 |
Jp82191 | don't go to PulseAudio | 01:14 |
dkulchenko | the thing is, i need pulseaudio because i'm mixing a ton of sound sources | 01:14 |
ZeeO | hey guys i have a old laptop with no harddrive in it i want to install ubuntu onto a usb stick but i don't want to use the live cd way i want to use grub etc can i just grab a install disk net install or something boot it then install to the usb as its a harddrive | 01:14 |
ZeeO | will that work | 01:14 |
Jp82191 | try it out if not then just format the usb stick | 01:15 |

KenBW2 | is it possible to somehow dist-upgrade Debian to Ubuntu? | 01:24 |
SetiAmon | is there still sound quality issues with Creative X-Fi(music in particular) when i first put karmic on the audio distortions were so bad i fresh reinstalled jaunty | 01:25 |
jrib | KenBW2: with a hammer, but it's definitely not supported, likely to blow up in your face, and a lot easier to just do a fresh install | 01:25 |
arand | KenBW2: adding the ubuntu repos, installing the ubuntu-standard and ubuntu-desktop metapackages... possibly, not something I would try without expecting it to break though... | 01:25 |

Harrison_Bergero | DOH | 01:30 |
Harrison_Bergero | yes | 01:30 |
chobbs | Harrison_Bergero, there you go :) | 01:31 |
arand | Harrison_Bergero: hmm, it is possible but not recommended to log int a temporary root session with "sudo -i", but there is probably something else cusing the error here than sudo not working | 01:31 |
Harrison_Bergero | chobbs...well that didnt work either | 01:31 |
codyduncan | Okay, looks like my guy split on me. Anyone else feel like helping me to enable WPA encryption on my wireless connection? Wireless networks are detected and listed, so the wireless card is functional in the most basic sense, however, when going to connect to any particular network, I am not given the option of entering a WPA passphrase, only WEP, and as my router is set to use WPA, this is... | 01:31 |
Harrison_Bergero | i closed nautilus terminal and GUI associated with it | 01:31 |
codyduncan | ...a problem. I am trying to get this going on a fresh Karmic install on a Toshiba A15-S157 notebook. Thus far, I have found this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/315489 which would seem to relate to my problem. I looked in my logs and saw this entry: Jan 10 16:06:35 cody-laptop firmware.sh[863]: Cannot find firmware file 'agere_sta_fw.bin', and have since found that... | 01:31 |
codyduncan | ...file, and have downloaded it to my desktop. It seems like this may be the solution, but how to exact it, therein lies my (momentary) problem. | 01:31 |

plustax_ | like what do I do when my game freezes im not trying to hit the power button every time its caused problems before | 01:32 |
Harrison_Bergero | it was the synaptic package manager AND a typo | 01:32 |

alberto | Hello | 01:33 |
Jp82191 | hola alberto | 01:33 |
arand | plustax_: try alt+f2 (alt+f7 to get back) and you have a terminal from where you might be able to kill the application... | 01:33 |
Chaz | Stavros: Install using the alternative cd and then only install the base system | 01:34 |
alberto | Please, somebody help me configure sound system in Ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope... | 01:34 |
Code_Bleu | can someone help me figure out why im getting "permission denied" as root on /home/user/.gvfs? | 01:34 |
plustax_ | isnt there a shift alt command too? | 01:34 |
Stavros | Chaz: i don't want to reinstall, can't i just remove it? | 01:34 |
Jp82191 | alberto, give me a minute | 01:34 |
alberto | Jp82191 Thank you very much. | 01:34 |

arand | plustax_: alternatively alt+SysReq+k will restart the whole graphic environment (and all apps with it) | 01:35 |
Jp82191 | alberto, are you on xchat? | 01:35 |
chobbs | Code_Bleu, Absolutely sure you're root? | 01:35 |
alberto | Jp82191 Yes, I am. | 01:35 |
arand | plustax_: this was fromerly available through ctrl+alt+backspace | 01:35 |
plustax_ | arand so that wont restart the computer just the graphics? Is this what you recommend when the game freezes? | 01:35 |
Chaz | Stavros: edit /etc/fstab and change the runlevel to 3, then reboot which will bring you into console mode then remove all the packages relating to xorg and gnome ect... | 01:35 |
Jp82191 | ok look upper left for my name and go there | 01:35 |
Chaz | Stavros: I'm sorry /etc/inittab | 01:35 |
arand | plustax_: I normally do *alt+f2* "killall stupid-game" *alt+f7* | 01:36 |
Code_Bleu | chobbs: yes | 01:36 |
Stavros | chaz: i'm in console already, but which package can i remove to have everything removed? | 01:36 |
kb0odu | Stavros: Install "dselect" as an alternative. It will provide a list of programs from the command line. It uses ncurses to display "windows" from the command line. | 01:36 |
Stavros | kb0odu: thanks for the hint, but i don't really need that, i don't use the gui at all now anyway | 01:37 |
Stavros | i just want to remove all the useless packages | 01:37 |
arand | plustax_: sorry that should have been ctrl+alt+F2 (and F7) | 01:37 |
kb0odu | Stavros: It runs from the command line. | 01:37 |
kb0odu | It's command line only. | 01:37 |
Stavros | kb0odu: i know, but i don't need any non-console programs, so it wouldn't give me any benefit | 01:38 |

Stavros | Chaz: that only removes the one package :/ | 01:40 |
arand | Stavros: maybe check the dpends/recommends of metapackage "ubuntu-desktop" and remove most of that? | 01:40 |
jtaji | Stavros: try removing libx11-6 and xorg, should take down everything else you want | 01:40 |
Code_Bleu | chobbs: thanks, i saw that too...but that doesnt answer or fix my issue | 01:40 |
jonathan__ | Hey guys, I need some help. I apperently don't know how to use synaptic package manager *blush* | 01:40 |

chobbs | Code_Bleu, Did you try the solution suggested on the 2nd page: sudo aptitude reinstall gvfs gvfs-backends gvfs-bin gvfs-fuse libgvfscommon0 | 01:41 |
Chaz | Stavros: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purekde | 01:41 |

Chard1 | i would think | 01:44 |
coolkehon | Chard1: :| | 01:45 |
jtaji | coolkehon: generally you want to encrypt /home and swap | 01:45 |
coolkehon | i meant like what kind of valuable information would be leaked | 01:45 |
chobbs | coolcat, what Chard1 says | 01:45 |
jtaji | coolkehon: if you do /home and swap, nothing | 01:45 |

jtaji | hmm yeah.. /tmp and /var potentially | 01:46 |
chobbs | fiber, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH_VPN perhaps? Not tried it myself. | 01:47 |

chobbs | fiber, If it's just for web browsing, then ssh will work as a socks5 proxy and it is a lot less work than the page I sent you to. I assumed when you said all traffic, you meant all traffic, but if it's just proxying web pages look into ssh | 01:51 |
coolkehon | jtaji: is there another way | 01:51 |
jonathan__ | arand: grrr it seems that all packages that I install end up with this problem. when I click on the icon, nothing happens | 01:51 |
jonathan__ | arand: except for W:ET, which just messes up my screen resalution | 01:51 |
arand | jonathan__: not really, would guess it'd down to video issues... | 01:51 |
webfox | Well, I can connect and run commands on my server just fine. The problem is that once I terminate the connection, it kills the terminal too. Is there any way for it to continue the task? Thanks for the help! | 01:51 |
fiber | chobbs: there is where the problem is... simply tunneling my browser is not enough since hulu detects the location based on whatever app is accessing the data through the mms protocol | 01:51 |

happy_ | adante: then it is probably a hard question. Those are the two places to try. | 01:53 |
fiber | chobbs: if it's any consolation... i own the US computer (i live there part of the year)... so technically i shouldn't be filtered :D | 01:53 |
webfox | happy_: what is the nohup you speak of? | 01:53 |
brando753 | Chard1: it shouldnt be almost full its brand new | 01:53 |
jonathan__ | arand: are you saying that because I have an nvidia card I can't run any packages? | 01:53 |
adante | happy_: ok, so do i have any further options? | 01:53 |

jonathan__ | arand: I just installed linux earlier today, I'm not exactly very good with this | 01:54 |

LinuX2half | its recognized by the computer as a blank CD-R but its unable to reveal its content though | 02:04 |
kb0odu | isolat3dsh33p: You need SAMBA | 02:04 |
sync3times | floppy.....wow | 02:04 |
quietone | where do I find glib-2.2.0 via synaptic? | 02:04 |
isolat3dsh33p | kb0odu, it's installed by default in 9.10 right? | 02:04 |
david_ | sync3times: receive signal 15 | 02:04 |
david_ | bind to port 0.0.0.0 22 failed address already in use | 02:05 |
kb0odu | isolat3dsh33p: Hmm...don't think so. I think I had to install it afterwards | 02:05 |
david_ | sync3times: any of those helpful? | 02:05 |
sync3times | david_, any updates recently that might mean that your current sshd is out of date? | 02:05 |
chobbs | Awesome3000, should be umount /media/floppy (is that the right device name? It's been ages.....) | 02:05 |
isolat3dsh33p | kb0odu, « apt-cache policy samba » gives this « Installed: 2:3.4.0-3ubuntu5.3 » :/ | 02:05 |
Awesome3000 | chobbs Thanks | 02:05 |
david_ | sync3times: im still on feisty fawn. i havent updated for ages | 02:05 |
sync3times | david_, restart sshd | 02:05 |
kb0odu | Then you need to configure it for your network / workgroup. | 02:05 |
xxx_ | is it possible to install windows xp to a partition with ubuntu? | 02:06 |
isolat3dsh33p | maybe I installed it and forgot I've installed it. | 02:06 |
david_ | sync3times: tried that, plus a reboot | 02:06 |
Awesome3000 | Lantizia sudo mlabel -s A: That should do it | 02:06 |
LinuX2half | it said to create a new file system but I'm not sure if I should commit the action if it had the consequence of losing my data and could led to disaster. | 02:06 |
isolat3dsh33p | kb0odu, which part? | 02:06 |
sync3times | david_, verify the package. Sounds hacked | 02:06 |
Dr_Willis | xxx_: windows will want its own partition. thats how dual booting works. | 02:07 |
mercutio22 | hello room | 02:07 |
david_ | sync3times: how do i do that? | 02:07 |
kb0odu | isolat3dsh33p: Try Gadmin-samba tool | 02:07 |
Dr_Willis | xxx_: you can have xp and ubuntu both on the same hard drive | 02:07 |
isolat3dsh33p | kb0odu, ok, thanks :) | 02:07 |
xxx_ | Dr_Willis, i know how to dual boot i need to install windows from linux | 02:07 |
sync3times | david_, dunno. some dpkg command should be able to do it, but I know rpm betterer | 02:07 |
david_ | sync3times: i apt-get removed ssh and installed it | 02:07 |
maco | david_: debsums | 02:08 |
sync3times | david_, ssh-server? | 02:08 |
mercutio22 | I am debian here, I find it pretty cool how ubuntu automounts usb storage devives containing ntfs filesystems with write permissions. Maybe someone here can explain to me how to have debian accomplish that as well | 02:08 |
neezer | does anyone know what dlna protocol error 2104 is? | 02:08 |
maco | sync3times:, david_: debsums checks the hashes of installed files | 02:08 |
ZykoticK9 | david_, it's NOT a good idea to be using End-Of-Life ubuntu versions (no security updates!) | 02:08 |
sync3times | maco, thanx , I needed to know that command. I was looking in dpkg docs | 02:09 |
Aiden | hi | 02:09 |
david_ | ZykoticK9: yeah i know! =[ | 02:09 |
jonathan__ | How do I enable 3d accel? | 02:09 |
=== Aiden is now known as Professor |
Profion | sync3times, wich the comand? | 02:10 |
=== Professor is now known as Teacher |
Awesome3000 | after updating to the latest kernel i get a startup error. is it safe to just use a older kernel? | 02:10 |
sync3times | Profion, debsums | 02:10 |
Teacher | The human vagina is an elastic muscular canal that extends from the cervix to the vulva.[1] Although there is wide anatomical variation, the length of the unaroused vagina is approximately 6 to 7.5 cm (2.5 to 3 in) across the anterior wall (front), and 9 cm (3.5 in) long across the posterior wall (rear).[2] During sexual arousal the vagina expands in both length and width.[3] Its elasticity allows it to stretch during sexual intercourse and during birth | 02:10 |
sync3times | eww, its not installed by default | 02:11 |
sync3times | wtf | 02:11 |
Chard1 | thanks teach | 02:11 |
Chard1 | sounds like someone needs to find themselves a girlfriend | 02:12 |
jamiejackson | not sure which channel to try, but i'm working on my ubuntu box, and can't get booted into ubuntu. not sure if this is a raid problem, an lvm problem, a grub problem, or what... i'm getting dropped into a "busybox" shell when i try to boot. above the shell is the warning; "ALERT! /dev/mapper/lvm--raid-lvm--raid_root does not exist. Dropping to a shell!" | 02:12 |

Profion | sync3times, one moment please | 02:12 |
sync3times | didnt even cite his sources | 02:12 |
jonathan__ | How do I enable 3d accel? | 02:12 |
sync3times | Profion, you may be responding to the wrong person. | 02:13 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, That is a loaded question :) | 02:13 |
david_ | sync3times: what would be the best way to update feisty fawn? | 02:13 |
arand | Harrison_Bergero: command "chmod" from terminal, see "man chmod" for help | 02:13 |
david_ | sync3times: to a newer distro | 02:13 |
sync3times | david_, hmm | 02:13 |
alucardromero | Anybody else in here having the Ubuntu 9.10+Chrome+Flash=Fullscreen issue? | 02:14 |

rww | david_: The various information is at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes#Unsupported%20%28Obsolete%29%20Versions | 02:14 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, The short answer is as root: chmod 755 <fileName> | 02:14 |
david_ | rww: thankyou | 02:14 |
sync3times | david_, I dunno. I would be tempted to do a fresh install, but thats just me. | 02:14 |
rww | david_: (which links to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades , where the meat of the information is at) | 02:14 |
sabgenton | I want to configure hostapd.conf to AP mode (master mode) anyone know a good tutoral? | 02:15 |
isolat3dsh33p | Q: In the "Connect to server" dialog to connect to a Windows Network, how can I find the IP of the server of the Windows network? | 02:15 |
sync3times | david_, do you have a separate home partition? | 02:15 |
Harrison_Bergero | edbian, does that work for the entire folder or just individual files? | 02:15 |
Profion | sync3times, you installed the package debsum? | 02:15 |
sync3times | Profion, I am kinda done with that issue. Thanks for your help | 02:15 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, If you do it like that it will only change the file that you put into <fileName> | 02:15 |
=== EcKstasy is now known as JNSamuel |
david_ | rww: if i install a new version of ubuntu instead of upgrade, will i keep my configs | 02:15 |
david_ | ? | 02:15 |
sabgenton | !hostapd | 02:15 |
Profion | sync3times, ok, sorry | 02:16 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, To do an entire folder: chmod - | 02:16 |
rww | david_: not unless you back them up and then restore them later, no | 02:16 |
sync3times | Profion, no problem. Thanks again | 02:16 |
jonathan__ | How do I enable 3d accel? | 02:16 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, Sorry, chmod -R 755 <folderName> | 02:16 |
Harrison_Bergero | edbian thanks | 02:16 |
edbian | jonathan__, Do you know how to turn on the desktop effects? | 02:16 |
jonathan__ | yes, and they don't work | 02:16 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, np. Did it work how you wanted? | 02:17 |
Harrison_Bergero | making the change now...have to navigate to the folder, brb | 02:17 |
edbian | jonathan__, Then you cannot turn on 3D acceleration. What is your video card? | 02:17 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, lemme know! :) | 02:17 |

meowbuntu | hi all i am having problem with firefox thus affecting my xmarks settings. i have changed a password for an account online first firefox wont remember the new password for that site even thought i have it set to remember passwords. | 02:18 |
Random832 | anyone know how to disable usplash without uninstalling it (since uninstalling it kills the ubuntu-desktop metapackage) | 02:18 |
jonathan__ | nvidia gforce not sure of the model edbian | 02:18 |
jonathan__ | edbian: I have used desktop effects on this computer before, but now with this 9.10 I can't figure out how | 02:18 |
arand | jonathan__: to find model no. you can use "lspci | grep VGA" from terminal | 02:19 |
LinuX2half | whats a ldlinux.sys? | 02:19 |
sync3times | jonnathan__, cat /proc/driver/nvidia/cards/0 | 02:19 |
Harrison_Bergero | edbian, silly question, how do i use this command if the folder name is two words | 02:19 |
edbian | jonathan__, Have you looked at the compiz-check script? It is very helpful in these sort of things http://forlong.blogage.de/entries/pages/Compiz-Check | 02:19 |
LinuX2half | I can't seem to make my CD recognizable | 02:20 |
jonathan__ | GeForce 7150M / nForce 630M | 02:20 |
Harrison_Bergero | seems the command is thinking that each word is a separate folder and giving me an error | 02:20 |
jonathan__ | edbian, thanks, trying now | 02:20 |
chobbs | Harrison_Bergero, are there spaces in the filename? | 02:20 |
Dr_Willis | Harrison_Bergero: quote or escape names with spaces in them | 02:20 |
Harrison_Bergero | chobbs, yes | 02:20 |
sync3times | jonatha__ do mine, it will tell you if the drivers are loaded | 02:20 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, Well, a "\" comes before a space. So "folder name" would become folder\ name | 02:20 |
chobbs | Escape the spaces with a backslash like this: My\ File\ Name | 02:20 |
jonathan__ | sync3times: alright | 02:21 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, You can also use tab completion. Type cd /path/to/a/fold[tab][tab] pressing the tab key where stated and the terminal tries to autocomplete what you're typing. Do you understand? | 02:21 |
sync3times | jonathan_, what happens when you type glxgears | 02:21 |
phxheat1 | I would like to expand my Recent Documents from 10 to about 20 showing in the list. Places>Recent Documents. Can you even change it, Ubuntu9.10 | 02:21 |
Harrison_Bergero | is the effect immediate or do i have to reboot? | 02:21 |
* chobbs loves him some tab completion | 02:21 |
jonathan__ | sync3tiems, I tried your first one... not sure what I'm supposed to gain from that. trying glxgears | 02:22 |
mariogamer91 | Is this where I can get windows technical support? | 02:22 |
rohit | I have a very very strange question... | 02:22 |
meowbuntu | so does anyone have any ideas | 02:22 |
Harrison_Bergero | edbian, damn. Still getting permission denied error. It didnt work | 02:22 |
sync3times | jonathan__, if it said anything, your drivers are loaded and see the card | 02:22 |
Awesome3000 | rohit ask away | 02:22 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, What is giving you permission denied? | 02:22 |
arand | jonathan__: have you upgraded to 9.10 or is this a fresh install? | 02:22 |
jonathan__ | synXlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0". | 02:23 |
jonathan__ | Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual | 02:23 |
jonathan__ | and the first one said something | 02:23 |
edbian | arand, He's using 9.10 | 02:23 |
rohit | Will the command "cp -fR /home/rohit/foo/bar/ /home/rohit/foo/output/" ever copy the entire bar directory as it is into output? | 02:23 |
Harrison_Bergero | transmission, ever since I upgraded to 9.10 | 02:23 |
jonathan__ | arand, 9.10 and a fresh install | 02:23 |
Harrison_Bergero | rohit, did you attend NCSU? | 02:23 |
sync3times | jonathan_, look in /etc/X11/xorg.conf and check to make sure you have a Section "Module" \ Load "glx" \ EndSection | 02:23 |
rohit | NCSU? | 02:23 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, answer me this. Who owns the files in question? | 02:23 |
grayhane | how do I stop the audio cd extractor from opening up when I insert an audio CD ? | 02:23 |
Harrison_Bergero | nm...it was a long shot, just though i'd ask | 02:23 |
Harrison_Bergero | edbian, me, the user | 02:23 |
sync3times | rohit, try cp -a | 02:24 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, what are the permissions on the file right now? | 02:24 |
Harrison_Bergero | edbian, what command shows the permission in terminal | 02:24 |
meowbuntu | ubuntu firefox is different from the way things are done on firefox help site | 02:24 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, ls -l | 02:24 |
rohit | sync3times: the thing is I DON'T want it to copy bar as it is ... I just want the contents to be copied into output | 02:24 |
isolat3dsh33p | how do I get the server IP that I'm trying to connect to? | 02:24 |
Harrison_Bergero | drwx------ 1 giulia giulia 4096 2009-11-22 12:30 Incoming Torrents | 02:24 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, Is giulia your username? | 02:25 |
Harrison_Bergero | y | 02:25 |
jonathan__ | sync3times: tried that, and I do have that | 02:25 |
sync3times | rohit, so you want ownership and permissions and such not necessarily preserved? | 02:25 |
rohit | sync3times: What I get is output/bar/ instead I just want the files in bar to in output/ | 02:25 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, According to those permissions giulia is allowed to read write and execute the file. Nobody else is allowed to do anything | 02:25 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, Which means that sudo chmod 755 was not applied to this file for whatever reason | 02:26 |
Harrison_Bergero | edbian, so why does transmission stop every single torrent with "permission denied" error? | 02:26 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, I'm not 100% sure | 02:26 |
chobbs | rohit, have you tried: cp -fR /home/rohit/foo/bar/* /home/rohit/foo/output/ | 02:26 |
* meowbuntu is tempted to call !ops for help. someone should know | 02:26 |
sync3times | jonatha__, /var/log/X.0.log may tell you something. It will be a long file. | 02:26 |
Harrison_Bergero | giulia@Photoland:/media/DABC7284BC725B49$ chmod -R 755 Incoming\ Torrents | 02:26 |
rohit | chobbs, trying now | 02:26 |
Dr_Willis | isolat3dsh33p: connet to how exactly? | 02:26 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, Change the permissions to 777 on that file | 02:27 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, Then show me what ls -l says about it | 02:27 |
jonathan__ | sync3times: alright, going to try that | 02:27 |
sync3times | rohit, oh, you always want to do this this/is/your/src/. to this/is/your/dest/. | 02:27 |
meowbuntu | Dr_Willis, do you know much about firefox password changing | 02:28 |
Dr_Willis | meowbuntu: what passwords> | 02:28 |
isolat3dsh33p | Dr_Willis, samba I believe. I'm trying to connect to a Windows network, and I'm trying to fill up the entries in the "Connect to server..." dialog. | 02:28 |
rohit | sync3times, thank you very much! :) | 02:28 |

chobbs | rohit, no worries, glad to see sync3times' answer | 02:29 |
meowbuntu | Dr_Willis, i have changed a password for an account but firefox does not give me the option to remembewr the new password as usual. i have checked that it is still set to remember passwords and it is | 02:29 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, right now your terminal is located in /media/DABC... | 02:29 |
ChogyDan | meowbuntu: have you tried removing the old password? | 02:29 |
Harrison_Bergero | edbian, yes | 02:29 |

sync3times | rohit whoop :) | 02:29 |
sync3times | rohit, glad to help | 02:30 |

Werenerd | Hey all - could anyone help me with setting NFS with 8.04 LTS? I am using shares-admin and I am at the part where it is asking me to specify network. It wants to know the netwpork and netmask | 02:34 |

Harrison_Bergero | chobbs, what? | 02:34 |

Harrison_Bergero | chobbs, gotcha. I am. | 02:35 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, What does chmod do when it runs? Return errors or anything? | 02:35 |
Harrison_Bergero | edbian, the first time it asked for a password because of the sudo, then after that nothing, just a cursor. | 02:35 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, Try and do it to some other file somewhere else | 02:36 |
Werenerd | I am pretty sure the netmask is the 255.255.255.0, but I don't know what to put in the Network field | 02:36 |
jonathan__ | sync3times: nvidia gave a message about the GPU I'm pretty sure, but I have alot of nvidia stuff in this computer | 02:36 |
chobbs | Harrison_Bergero, edbian, you shouldn't need sudo if you're changing permissions on files you own | 02:36 |
jonathan__ | sync3times: does this mean anything? nvidia: module license 'NVIDIA' taints kernel. | 02:36 |
CaBlGuY | anyone?? | 02:36 |
sync3times | jonatha__, thats fine. how many nvidia cards to you have in the computer counting mobo | 02:37 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, look at the files inside that folder. 777 should make them all read write and executable by everybody | 02:37 |
ZykoticK9 | jonathan__, taints kernel is 'cause it isn't open source (nothing to worry about really) | 02:37 |
sync3times | jonathan__, cat /proc/driver/nvidia/cards/1 | 02:37 |
ChogyDan | CaBlGuY: you can try the livecd to find out | 02:37 |
Harrison_Bergero | edbian, wow....drwxrwxrwx 2 giulia giulia 4096 2009-08-29 04:03 Musik | 02:37 |
KiDD420 | Awesome3000: it just come up with a blank file? | 02:37 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, There you go! | 02:37 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, try running chmod 777 on the folder without the -R ;) | 02:37 |
jonathan__ | sync3times: I'm honestly not sure... mobo is... graphics chipset is... mic and "headset" that I've never heard of (probably the speakers) is... | 02:37 |
rohit | sync3times, I forgot to ask, is there any particular reason why I have to add the '.' after the / ? | 02:38 |
Harrison_Bergero | edbian, well, what about the folder on the partition im trying to use for transmission? | 02:38 |
jonathan__ | sync3times: tring now, I just type that into the terminal correct? | 02:38 |
sync3times | rohit, it says, put it "there" | 02:38 |
Awesome3000 | KiDD420 can you just reinstall grub from the liveCD | 02:38 |
KiDD420 | uhhh | 02:38 |
sync3times | jonathan__, yup | 02:38 |
KiDD420 | i dont know how | 02:38 |
Harrison_Bergero | edbian, nope still nothing | 02:38 |
Harrison_Bergero | same as before | 02:38 |
green1152 | I am having some issues with qjackctl sending back xruns. Can someone help me? | 02:38 |
jonathan__ | sync3times: no such file or directory | 02:38 |
rohit | sync3times, ok cool :) | 02:38 |
KiDD420 | i just installed it with the interface ubuntu came with and told it to install to the usb drive | 02:38 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, really? with no errors? something is wrong | 02:38 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, Go there in nautilus and get some eyes on the problem | 02:39 |
Harrison_Bergero | edbian, does it have to do with the partition? Do i have to share the partition as a whole? | 02:39 |
presario16xluser | Is this where i get support for Ubuntu 9.10? | 02:39 |
rww | presario16xluser: yes | 02:39 |
geitenneuker | i got a problem | 02:39 |
edbian | Harrison_Bergero, No, if that were so it would affect ALL of the files on the partition not just some of them | 02:39 |
green1152 | anyone have much knowledge on qjackctrl? Is there a better irc for that? | 02:40 |
Harrison_Bergero | edbian, im in nautilus window | 02:40 |
geitenneuker | i cannot start ubuntu, it has no knob | 02:40 |
presario16xluser | Ok because I am trying to boot ubuntu off a very old notebook and the live cd takes 20 minutes to boot. | 02:40 |

jonathan__ | sync3times: no such file or directory | 02:41 |
rww | geitenneuker: Do you have an actual Ubuntu support question we can help you with? | 02:41 |
sync3times | jonathan__ good | 02:41 |
jonathan__ | good? ok... now what? | 02:41 |
geitenneuker | damn dicktator on belarus | 02:41 |
presario16xluser | On a presario 1600-xl142 (pentium 3), it takes a long time. (this is an actual question.) | 02:41 |
meowbuntu | i wonder y ubuntu selects kde packages in updatemanager. kubuntu never selects gnome packages. | 02:41 |
meowbuntu | ^ any ideas | 02:41 |
Awesome3000 | KiDD420 sudo grub-install /dev/<yourpartition> in a terminal | 02:41 |
geitenneuker | meowbuntu? is this a new release? | 02:42 |
edbian | meowbuntu, You have some application that uses KDE things | 02:42 |
green1152 | does jack fall under support in this irc room? I've run into a problem getting it running and really need some help. The message box returns four XRUNS and then kills jack | 02:42 |
jonathan__ | sync3times: ok, now what? | 02:42 |
NotTooSmart | how do I install oss4 on ubuntu 9.10 ??? | 02:42 |
sync3times | jonathan__, it failed to load the glx module. But the 2d graphics work | 02:42 |
meowbuntu | edbian, i dont think so | 02:42 |
chobbs | presario16xluser, Actually, that was a statement. What is the question? | 02:42 |
geitenneuker | woofbuntu | 02:42 |
meowbuntu | geitenneuker, new release of what | 02:42 |
jonathan__ | sync3times ok, how do I fix it? | 02:43 |
meowbuntu | edbian, how can i check if i do | 02:43 |
rww | !ot | geitenneuker | 02:43 |
ubottu | geitenneuker: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 02:43 |
ChogyDan | meowbuntu: ignore geitenneuker, who is just trolling | 02:43 |
sync3times | jonathan__, I am trying. This is harder since you have the computer there. | 02:43 |
geitenneuker | jewbuntu, the ubuntu for orthodox jews | 02:43 |
meowbuntu | ChogyDan, thanks | 02:43 |

ldlework | omg wtf | 02:43 |
presario16xluser | Can I just please get some help with installing ubunto on this pentium 3 650mhz notebook with 192mb of ram? (seriosly, whats up with you guys?) | 02:44 |
genii | geitenneuker: You're not being constructive, also somewhat rascist. Please desist | 02:44 |
ldlework | I just installed Ubuntu, latest, and I hit the desktop and it just spins | 02:44 |
ldlework | I can't do anything, just the orange background, with a spinning mouse | 02:44 |
ldlework | halp? | 02:44 |
meowbuntu | can anyone help me find out if i have kde apps installed | 02:44 |
jonathan__ | presario16xluser: correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think ubuntu will run on that | 02:44 |
ChogyDan | green1152: if no one can help you with jack, people will just not respond. | 02:44 |
NotTooSmart | how do I install oss4 on ubuntu 9.10 ??? | 02:44 |
geitenneuker | 192mb is very low mem | 02:44 |
geitenneuker | you need at least 512mb to work with it | 02:45 |
sync3times | jonathan__ can you paste your entire /etc/X11/xorg.conf file? | 02:45 |
jonathan__ | presario16xluser: try puppy linux... it might at least boot | 02:45 |
chobbs | presario16xluser, It'll run, but you'll need to replace the default window manager (metacity) with something more svelte. | 02:45 |
geitenneuker | otherwise i recommend to install lubuntu | 02:45 |
sync3times | jonathan__ use pastebin or whatever | 02:45 |
green1152 | Thanks Chogy. At least I know something is working right at the moment. | 02:45 |
presario16xluser | Well, I can upgrade the ram to 320mb, but the requirements say i need like 192mb of ram. | 02:45 |
jonathan__ | sync3times: sure | 02:45 |
ldlework | Does anyone know why a fresh ubuntu install, that works with the live CD, would, when it hits the desktop, it would just sit there with the orange background and a spinning mouse | 02:45 |
green1152 | Does anyone know a good place I can go for Jack issues, then? | 02:45 |
geitenneuker | get more mem, if you can or install another OS liek lubuntu | 02:45 |
meowbuntu | i find it strange that update manager has kde 4 apps there. | 02:46 |
presario16xluser | OK NEVERMIND, im just going back to M$ windows! | 02:46 |
ChogyDan | green1152: #jack looks relevant. | 02:46 |
green1152 | thank you | 02:46 |

kraitos | amarok won't let me add music to it. could anyone help ? | 02:47 |
KiDD420 | im not sure which partition to install it to? | 02:47 |
meowbuntu | magicvibe, try sudo apt-get install (application) | 02:47 |
ZykoticK9 | magicvibe, "sudo apt-get install lame" | 02:47 |
KiDD420 | Awesome3000: | 02:47 |
ChogyDan | meowbuntu: you should be able to just mark the package you are interested in to remove, and then the removed will tell you what other packages will be removed before asking for confirmation | 02:47 |
magicvibe | thank you, ill try that | 02:47 |
meowbuntu | ChogyDan, i want to first find out if i have install anything that may need the kde updates. | 02:48 |
Jp82191 | has anyone gotten remote desktop to work over the internet? | 02:48 |

arvind_khadri | Jp82191, ask your question | 02:49 |

Jp82191 | how do i connect to another users computer via remote desktop? | 02:49 |
dimeotane | anyone know how to run android apps in ubuntu? | 02:49 |
chobbs | magicvibe, better advice would be 'sudo aptitude install lame' | 02:49 |
geitenneuker | Jp82191: easy | 02:49 |
ChogyDan | meowbuntu: run this, but just make sure to say 'no' sudo apt-get remove kdebase-runtime | 02:49 |
meowbuntu | NotTooSmart, try sudo apt-get install (app name) | 02:49 |
sync3times | jonathan__, here is mine http://pastebin.com/d42ea5855 | 02:49 |
geitenneuker | Jp82191: there is a RDP client | 02:49 |
NotTooSmart | meowbuntu, doesnt have it i dont think | 02:49 |
magicvibe | meowbuntu, thanks, ive tried and it seems to have successfully installed, but the WinFF converter still claims libmp3lame is an unfamiliar encoder | 02:49 |
Awesome3000 | KiDD420 it will be a device in /dev/ | 02:49 |
KiDD420 | ya | 02:49 |
KiDD420 | im trying /dev/sdb1/ | 02:50 |
KiDD420 | which should be the main partition | 02:50 |
meowbuntu | ChogyDan, so run that but say n | 02:50 |
geitenneuker | terminal server client | 02:50 |
ChogyDan | aye | 02:50 |
KiDD420 | then there is the swap partiition | 02:50 |
Awesome3000 | KiDD420 careful | 02:50 |
geitenneuker | Jp82191: terminal server client | 02:50 |
jonathan__ | sync3times: ok, I'm not really sure what all that means | 02:50 |
KiDD420 | im sure its sdb | 02:50 |
Awesome3000 | KiDD420 OK | 02:50 |
KiDD420 | but when I try to CD to it it say no diretory | 02:50 |
KiDD420 | not a directory | 02:51 |
sync3times | jonathan__, mine is a little simpler. probably makes no difference. But mine is a copy of one that works....with your driver cksum | 02:51 |
Awesome3000 | KiDD420 it isn't a directory it's a device | 02:51 |
chobbs | KiDD420, /dev/sdb1 is a device, not a directory. | 02:51 |
KiDD420 | well | 02:51 |
geitenneuker | amd ganjron, the smoking cpu | 02:51 |
jonathan__ | oh, so I replace mine with yours and hope it doesn't explode? | 02:51 |

LinuX2half | what does it mean to create a file system on the device? | 02:53 |
amdsempron | Hello? Anyone going to help me? I just need to set up a swap partition. | 02:53 |
chobbs | KiDD420, I may have missed something - did you say you were trying to modify the booting of your LiveCD? | 02:53 |
geitenneuker | ok | 02:53 |
KiDD420 | no | 02:53 |
geitenneuker | mkswap 1203 | 02:53 |
Awesome3000 | amdsempron Do you already have the partition | 02:53 |
chobbs | KiDD420, OK, must just be the meds :-) | 02:53 |
magicvibe | hmm | 02:53 |
KiDD420 | i installed ubuntu to a 4gb flash drive but it will not load | 02:53 |
KiDD420 | im trying to edit grub to put a rootdelay= | 02:54 |
chobbs | KiDD420, got it, thought I'd missed a step :-) | 02:54 |
arghh2d2 | chobbs: meds? | 02:54 |
amdsempron | Yes, I already have a swap partition, and system monitor keeps reporting 0 bytes of 0 bytes from the swap being used. | 02:54 |
KiDD420 | should i be trying /dev/sdb1 or /dev/sdb1/ | 02:54 |
jonathan__ | sync3times: Ok, I did it. it is takin awhile for me to get the whole command-line sudo thing. but I got it, now what? | 02:54 |
meowbuntu | magicvibe, did that help | 02:54 |
chobbs | arghh2d2, dextromorphan | 02:54 |
sync3times | arghh2d2, this is the US. We are all heavily medicated | 02:54 |
ChogyDan | amdsempron: what does sudo swapon -a say? | 02:54 |
KiDD420 | how do I check what is mounted? | 02:55 |
geitenneuker | dd if=/dev/zero of=/extra-swap bs=1024 | 02:55 |

jonathan__ | yes | 02:55 |

amdsempron | swapon: /dev/mapper/cryptswap1: stat failed: No such file or directory | 02:55 |
jonathan__ | I wasn't supposed to? | 02:55 |
sync3times | jonathan__, sudo service gdm restart | 02:55 |
arghh2d2 | sync3times: yeah, god forbid you self medicate with a natural remedie in the U.S though | 02:55 |
magicvibe | meowbuntu; but it seems WinFF keeps insisting (unknown encoder libmp3lame) | 02:55 |
ChogyDan | geitenneuker: please stop | 02:55 |
jonathan__ | ok | 02:55 |
sync3times | arghh2d2, natural? what is that | 02:56 |

geitenneuker | amdsempron: or on a flash drive? | 02:58 |
sync3times | jonathan__, well the only thing I can think of is that your card is not supported by the driver. Is your card really new and state of the art? | 02:58 |
KiDD420 | would there be a way to edit the GRUB menu.lst when it drops me into busybox? | 02:58 |
jonathan__ | no... it's actually pretty old sync3times | 02:58 |

sync3times | jonathan__ what model again? | 02:59 |
jonathan__ | sync3times: and I've had it working before... | 02:59 |
arghh2d2 | Guest49270: cat text too append to >> /etc/network/interfaces | 02:59 |

KiDD420 | i dont know | 02:59 |
KiDD420 | i dont recall seeing it listed in help | 02:59 |
amdsempron | I set up a 256mb swap at install for max space to store iso files on this machine (and also games) and no it is not an encrypted swap. | 02:59 |
sync3times | jonathan__, sigh, sorry. I tried my best. | 02:59 |
arghh2d2 | Guest49270: you can just as easily open a text editor to do edit the file | 02:59 |
jonathan__ | alright, cya | 02:59 |
Guest49270 | yea i did that but it gives me a "bash: /etc/network/interfaces: Permission denied" error even when i used sudo to do it. | 02:59 |

meowbuntu | magicvibe, if its a one off you can use an online converter I used this link to convert a phone video when I failed to find a linux tool http://media-convert.com/ | 03:00 |
KiDD420 | is there a way when installing ubuntu to specify certain things in grub or to not have the files locked? | 03:01 |
Guest49270 | wouldn't "sudo echo "# Bridged network interface" >> /etc/network/interfaces" be the same thing as using sudosu? | 03:01 |
sync3times | KiDD420, you can have a grub boot password | 03:01 |
arghh2d2 | Guest49270: probly | 03:01 |
Guest49270 | yes i ran it as root, usinf the the command sudo filename.sh | 03:01 |
magicvibe | thanks meowbuntu, i hope i can do it w/ my computer tho cuz it's 165mb lol | 03:01 |
KiDD420 | i dont want a password..... I just want to add the rootdelay=10 | 03:01 |
KiDD420 | so it can load the usb modules before it tries mounting it as root | 03:02 |
sync3times | KiDD420, why cant you add it in menu.lst | 03:02 |
Guest49270 | is there another way i can do it? | 03:03 |
Bohemian | how do i grep for something? | 03:03 |
edbian | Bohemian, What do you mean? | 03:03 |
Bohemian | "grep processid" isn't working? | 03:03 |
Bohemian | and grep | 4602 doesn't work | 03:03 |
sync3times | wow, grub changed | 03:03 |
NotTooSmart | meowbuntu, doesnt have it i dont think | 03:03 |
NotTooSmart | how do I install oss4 on ubuntu 9.10 ??? | 03:03 |
arghh2d2 | Bohemian: try pgrep | 03:03 |
edbian | Bohemian, grep filters the output of a command. If you type ps -e it will give some output to filter. If you ps -e | grep k It will show the lines from ps -e than have a k in them | 03:03 |
KiDD420 | sync3times: i dont have permissions on it from the live session..... | 03:04 |
edbian | Bohemian, ps -e | grep ko will show all the lines from ps -e that have a ko in them | 03:04 |
edbian | Bohemian, That is how grep works (basically) now what is the bigger picture of what you're trying to do | 03:04 |
magicvibe | meowbuntu; would you be able to tell me how im to use ffmpeg? | 03:04 |
sync3times | KiDD420, can you edit grub in the grub environment. with "e" | 03:05 |
KiDD420 | i dunno.... never heard of or tried that | 03:05 |
KiDD420 | how do i do that | 03:05 |
sync3times | KiDD420, you can edit the boot lines in some grubs | 03:05 |

sirninja | I'm using the lucid alpha. Mostly everything works great, but when use the volume control keys on my laptop, it controls the pulse audio volume, not the master track volume, what happens is once I get a little below halfway pulseaudio brings the master track down to 0 so I don't hear anything. I resolved this same issue in Karmic by editing some file, I just can't remember which one. Does anybody know what file I need to edit to fi | 03:07 |

ShazbotMcMurder | :| | 03:13 |
ShazbotMcMurder | brb | 03:13 |
maco | theshadow: and that's not a rename. having the git package install anything other than gnuit would involve renaming a package | 03:13 |

ChogyDan | B4RR13N705: it looks like it is activate-cursor-item. I suggest installing GLADE just to get a better idea of some of the single names. Also, when you click the devhelper icon, it will give a page:item type search. Just delete `page:` | 03:25 |
blakkheim | Slix: you can change it in the gedit prefs | 03:25 |

howdeep | hello. i'm trying to install ubuntu from an installation cd. the pc boots the cd fine and after pressing 'install ubuntu' i get an error message saying "uncompression error -- system halted" what could this be? | 03:44 |
Bird|desktop | KiDD420: it sounds like something is messed in your initramfs | 03:44 |
Jordan_U | !install RogerK | 03:44 |
Awesome3000 | Sorhan are you using a password | 03:44 |
RocketLauncher | I hate pcmanfm so much. There's no prograss bar or anything to tell me how much i've got to go when transferring files to my flash drive. It's extremely irritating | 03:44 |
KiDD420 | well.... how do I fix it? | 03:44 |
Jordan_U | !install | RogerK | 03:44 |
ubottu | RogerK: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - Don't want to use a CD? See http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate | 03:44 |
LinuX2half | okay. thanks | 03:44 |
Sorhan | Awesome, I've tried an account that has a pwd and an account that doesn't | 03:45 |
edbian | howdeep, Sounds like the CD image is bad. Try burning again slower and/or with a different image and/or with a different CD | 03:45 |
KiDD420 | same thing happens when I make a USB startup disk also | 03:45 |
chobbs | dr_bungle, http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/recover-mysql-root-password.html | 03:45 |
RogerK | jordan_U ive seen that. i want to know if theres an option to install from a local disk ie sda5 holds the installation image or whatever and installs to sda1-3 | 03:45 |
Bird|desktop | KiDD420: yeah, the usb modules need to be added to your initramfs | 03:46 |
howdeep | edbian, this cd is a known good copy, i used it to install on other machines. i also tried my copy of notebook remix and it did the same thing. both discs confirmed working in other machines. i'm lost. | 03:46 |
brando753 | Jordan_U: http://pastebin.com/meede822 http://pastebin.com/m2020721b | 03:46 |
KiDD420 | how do I do that? | 03:46 |
Bird|desktop | howdeep: drive fail? | 03:46 |
Jordan_U | RogerK: One of the sections there should be how to install from linux | 03:46 |
LinuX2half | can the empty partition be booted? | 03:46 |
howdeep | Bird|desktop, it's possible, it's one of those external usb drives. it worked a few days ago. i'll double check it on another machine but i doubt that is it | 03:47 |
edbian | LinuX2half, If there is no OS on a partition it cannot be booted (there is nothing to boot!) | 03:47 |
Bird|desktop | KiDD420: update-initramfs/mkinitramfs/you could hack it by hand if you had to... | 03:47 |
Carlis3 | who can help me ?? | 03:47 |
KiDD420 | is that a command? | 03:47 |
KiDD420 | i would be willing to do it by hand | 03:47 |
LinuX2half | oh I see | 03:47 |
Bird|desktop | KiDD420: update-initramfs and mkinitramfs are both commands | 03:48 |
RogerK | ahh found it thanks a bunch Jordan_U | 03:48 |
Awesome3000 | Sorhan you need to used the passworded one windozes doesn't let non-pwds in are you sure the account is allowed to be acsesd remotely | 03:48 |

edbian | LinuX2half, You have another instance of a package manager running somewhere | 03:49 |
Jordan_U | brando753: That confirms it, Disk Usage Analizer looks at all of the sizes of all of the files in a given directory to get the size of that directory, if it can't read the file ( i.e. it doesn't have permission to ) then it can't find that file's size | 03:49 |
chobbs | dr_bungle, It stores it in the mysql database itself - I linked you to instructions to recover | 03:49 |

Random832 | mom_→ probably the windows one - what, they don't give you both if you pay for it? | 04:21 |
Ahmuck | will the ubuntu netbook remix work on any pc or just netbooks? | 04:22 |

LinuX2half | Wait until next time actually...? | 04:24 |
mom_ | Random832, do i want postscript or truetype? | 04:24 |
trism | mom_: the otf files should be the same, I bet the only difference is the archive format they let you download them in (zip/sit) | 04:24 |
mezquitale | Ahmuck, you can probably install remix on any pc but you would lose your mind LoL | 04:24 |

Random832 | probably what trism said really though | 04:25 |
david__ | does anyone know if i have to download specific drivers to get the svideo to work on xubuntu | 04:25 |
edbian | david__, What happens if you boot the computer up while the TV and only the TV is connected via S-video. | 04:25 |
sulio | dafud___ I dont think so... I used an s video link with xubuntu earlier on my TV | 04:26 |
david__ | the tv screen stays black an says no signal | 04:26 |
edbian | david__, During the whole boot process? | 04:26 |
sulio | david__ the only thing that I needed to get it to work was to plug in the cable before I booted up the computer | 04:26 |
mom_ | trism, well i downloaded this font before and windows and mac didnt work and someone made a linux version http://www.gringod.com/2006/11/01/new-version-of-monaco-font/ | 04:26 |
david__ | yeah i had it connected when i booted | 04:26 |
david__ | do you think that rebooting will help | 04:26 |
mezquitale | Ahmuck, netbook is meant for netbooks that dont have the hardware of a desktop---like for video cards for example, you will have issues with compiz, it's easy to configure your machine to work like ubuntu remix flavor, youll have problems doing the opposite: http://helpforlinux.blogspot.com/2009/04/try-ubuntu-netbook-remix-on-desktop.html | 04:27 |
sulio | david__ Well, have you set the 'Source' of your TV to PC | 04:27 |
david__ | i have set it to svideo it worked when i was running windows | 04:27 |
edbian | david__, All I know is that the system probes the hardware during the boot process. If the TV isn't plugged in it won't be seen and thus, not used. | 04:27 |
sulio | david__ On our TV, for example, we have different Sources : AV2 (for DVD/VCR player) and Cable (for Cable obviously) and PC (for s video hook ups) | 04:27 |
sulio | david__ I see | 04:27 |
edbian | david__, I've done it with my TV and computer before. I know it works ;) It's just getting it to work that's the tough part. Of course, I did it with VGA | 04:28 |

david__ | i will try rebooting an see if that will help | 04:31 |
ohhhhhh | I would really like the add/remove with star ratings back | 04:31 |
edbian | david__, Try googling "ubuntu and s-video" | 04:31 |
edbian | david_, And the like | 04:31 |
mezquitale | !troll | 04:32 |
ubottu | trolling / trollish behaviour is behaviour that is considered annoying by other channel users, this includes going offtopic, asking the same question time and again getting answered and not acknowledging the answer, and these are not the only ways behaviour can be considered trolling, please see /msg ubottu guidelines - if this applies to you, you may find yourself outside the channel | 04:32 |
ohhhhhh | ? | 04:32 |
ohhhhhh | are you saying im trolling? im not, its a legit question that I am sure someone has the answer to | 04:32 |
edbian | bleepbloop, it should. I'm not sure if that's the package name | 04:33 |
Ahmuck | mezquitale: so netbook remix, as it appears and looks is what i'd get. simple menus, simple interface, simple desktop? | 04:33 |
jamiejackson | hi folks, i can't get ubuntu booted. it can't seem to find my root device, which is actually a lvm volume inside of mdadm raid. i am at a loss as to how to troubleshoot. could someone help me? | 04:33 |
sulio | david__ here is a forum for you, dunno if it will help http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/ubuntu-63/s-video-on-my-xubuntu-box-511654/ | 04:33 |
Ahmuck | mezquitale - this - http://zeirus.files.wordpress.com/2008/06/ubuntunetbookremix_3.jpg - correct ? | 04:33 |
mezquitale | Ahmuck, if that is what you want on your desktop, yes, it is possible to configure your desktop like netbook remix, just follow the guide | 04:33 |
ohhhhhh | Nevermind I found the answer | 04:34 |
Ahmuck | mezquitale: my goal is to have a nice turn key solutions for older desktops that don't overlaod them, and are easy for seniors to use | 04:34 |
ohhhhhh | gnome-app-install | 04:34 |
Ahmuck | mezquitale: this appears it would do the trick | 04:34 |
w00t3r | is there a way to install a virtual machine in linux to run windows? i know there is in windows to run linux | 04:34 |
microlith | w00t3r: VirtualBox | 04:34 |
jamiejackson | w00t3r: i use sun's virtualbox | 04:34 |
edbian | Ahmuck, No computers are considered easy to use by seniors | 04:34 |
w00t3r | thx | 04:35 |
mezquitale | Ahmuck, go ahead and have fun, just dont hurt yourself | 04:35 |
edbian | w00t3r, Sure is! Check out virtualbox | 04:35 |
Ahmuck | edbian: depends, my mother is 70 and uses a full ubuntu desktop | 04:35 |
ohhhhhh | thanks everyone for your non helpfulness | 04:35 |
edbian | Ahmuck, I stand corrected | 04:35 |
Ahmuck | well, ok, not quite that old | 04:35 |
mezquitale | Ahmuck, if you have an older machine I highly suggest you use xubuntu | 04:35 |
Ahmuck | xubuntu is to heavy | 04:35 |
blakkheim | Ahmuck: if you have an older machine, i highly suggest not using xubuntu as it is still bloated | 04:36 |
Ahmuck | if netbook remix is heavier than xubuntu i need to keep looking | 04:36 |
Ahmuck | yes, xubuntu is very bloated | 04:36 |
Ahmuck | moonos ldxe worked nicely. i understand that ldxe is working towards a lubuntu version | 04:36 |
mezquitale | blakkheim, ok if you dont recommend xubuntu then what do you recommend? dsl? | 04:36 |
edbian | Ahmuck, I think it's lxde not ldxe | 04:37 |
blakkheim | mezquitale: if he prefers a *buntu, then an ubuntu minimal iso will be good. | 04:37 |
=== chobbs is now known as chobbs_ |
Ahmuck | i was looking at ubuntu remix, because of easy peasy (having all the codecs, etc.) | 04:37 |
=== chobbs_ is now known as chobbs |
Ahmuck | blakkheim: would ubuntu minimal have abiword, gnumeric, firefox, etc.? | 04:37 |
blakkheim | Ahmuck: you can install all of them | 04:38 |
edbian | blakkheim, mezquitale: xfce is considered to be less bloated than gnome which is in turn less bloated than KDE | 04:38 |
MenZa | Ahmuck: ubuntu minimal has next to nothing, but they're all available in the repositories. | 04:38 |
blakkheim | !mini | Ahmuck | 04:38 |
ubottu | Ahmuck: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 04:38 |
Ahmuck | i've got 30 pcs about 1ghz and 512mb ram i don't want to take to the dump | 04:38 |
urthmover | in KDE, what keyboard shortcut brings up the "Start" menu? | 04:38 |
edbian | Ahmuck, Make a cluster! I'll take some ;) | 04:38 |
MenZa | Ahmuck: Install Ubuntu, ship 'em off to a local school :) | 04:38 |
Ahmuck | neither do i want to spend time with them. | 04:38 |
blakkheim | Ahmuck: setup some servers or a compiling "cluster" | 04:38 |
Code_Bleu | is there a channel for LUKS or cryptsetup? | 04:38 |
Ahmuck | schools get free microsoft computers | 04:39 |
=== Ricky_ is now known as Guest47541 |
edbian | Ahmuck, I don't know what schools you go to... | 04:39 |
Ahmuck | having a small mem and proc footprint to put on them and a remix interface, i could give them away | 04:39 |
emes | a recent quad-core processor would probably be faster than a cluster of 30 1ghz PCs | 04:39 |
Ahmuck | emes: correct | 04:39 |
Ahmuck | and less power | 04:39 |
sulio | Mac Question for anyone :: I installed Linux on my Mac, but now I want to reinstall Mac OS X, or possibly dual boot.. Unfortunately, my computer cannot read the CDs now!! What can I do? | 04:39 |
blakkheim | sulio: this is not a mac channel, sorry | 04:40 |
MenZa | sulio: Try ##apple | 04:40 |
edbian | sulio, Can't read what CD's ? You could also use unetbootin | 04:40 |
urthmover | sulio: you should be able to boot from a vendor apple disc | 04:40 |
hostilebread | Try using an external CD drive | 04:40 |
hostilebread | Or something | 04:40 |
Ahmuck | edbian: seriously, our schools got free software for the pc's. microsoft and a local computer company joined togather and donated the software | 04:40 |
sulio | Cannot boot from the Mac OS X cds | 04:40 |
sulio | I thnk this deserves Linux channel because my computer is formatted in everyway for Linux | 04:41 |
Ahmuck | grants paid for the hardware | 04:41 |
mezquitale | Ahmuck, the processors are running @ 1gig? so they should be PIII or better, with 512 megs of ram? xubuntu will do wonders on it | 04:41 |
edbian | Ahmuck, I see | 04:41 |
urthmover | sulio: Do you have applecare? | 04:41 |
sulio | No | 04:41 |
Ahmuck | mezquitale: i've tried xubuntu, and it's slow | 04:41 |
sulio | had my laptop for awhile now | 04:41 |
dav | totem question - is there a way to find out which track / chapter I'm currently watching when using totem to watch a DVD? | 04:41 |
edbian | sulio, The ubuntu OS has nothing to do with what device boots | 04:41 |
sulio | Hmm | 04:41 |
sulio | well | 04:41 |
edbian | sulio, You have to edit the bios to make things boot differently | 04:41 |
sulio | Right | 04:41 |
mezquitale | Ahmuck, your next bet would be damn small linux but I haven't tried it though | 04:41 |
sulio | its the Mac bios | 04:41 |
blakkheim | macs don't have a BIOS | 04:41 |
sulio | which doesnt have a bios | 04:41 |
edbian | sulio, ok.... I have no idea then | 04:42 |
urthmover | sulio: there is a key you press during boot to boot from the CD....I think its the letter C or something | 04:42 |
Ahmuck | heh, dsl is not senior friendly imho | 04:42 |
edbian | sulio, That letter C things sounds familiar | 04:42 |
Ahmuck | ok, well thanks for the info. i'll tuck it away | 04:42 |
sulio | RIght urthmover, I do that, but the CD simply ejects | 04:42 |
mezquitale | Ahmuck, you want to the mini distribution, like people have told you about | 04:42 |
sulio | any idea why | 04:42 |
sulio | Its not mac | 04:43 |
sulio | I mean | 04:43 |
sulio | it can boot from all Linux LiveCDs | 04:43 |
urthmover | sulio: do any CDs work? | 04:43 |
sulio | but it cannot boot from a Mac OS X discs | 04:43 |
sulio | the original ones, too | 04:43 |
sulio | maybe they just got scratched or something | 04:43 |
blakkheim | sulio: consider that a sign | 04:43 |
tritium | !enter | sulio | 04:43 |
ubottu | sulio: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 04:43 |
sulio | blakkheim Lol | 04:43 |
edbian | sulio, sounds to me like your MAC knows that it doesn't have a MAC OS anymore :( | 04:43 |
l1nUx1z3r | does anyone have a how-to for making ubuntu into an openbox enviroment like in crunchbang | 04:43 |
sulio | blakkheim I use OS X for Final Cup Pro | 04:43 |
urthmover | sulio: the EFI bootloader isn't something that gets changed even after you install linux....I'm not sure what is wrong | 04:43 |
sulio | yeah, its a strange affliction | 04:44 |
blakkheim | sulio: final cup pro huh, do you make cups with it? | 04:44 |

l1nUx1z3r | since it's not out yet | 04:45 |
mezquitale | Ahmuck, you should give puppy linux a try | 04:45 |
edbian | l1nUx1z3r, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Openbox | 04:45 |
sulio | blakkheim Well, there doesn't seem to be any comparable Video editors for Linux | 04:45 |

mezquitale | sulio, have you tried cinelerra? | 04:46 |
urthmover | sulio: cinelerra | 04:46 |
bastid_raZor | l1nUx1z3r: then why are you asking here? | 04:46 |
edbian | l1nUx1z3r, Read the page. It says how to run it on top of gnome and stand alone | 04:46 |
sulio | mezquitale Yes, but I don't think it is matches up to Final Cut Pro | 04:46 |
l1nUx1z3r | bastid_raZor, read the question | 04:46 |
l1nUx1z3r | edbian, thanks | 04:46 |
sulio | Perhaps I am wrong | 04:46 |
edbian | l1nUx1z3r, No problem :) | 04:46 |
mezquitale | sulio, ask that question in #ubuntustudio and see if anyone replies, linux is a little bit behind on video editing software | 04:47 |
edbian | mezquitale, Unfortunately :( :( | 04:47 |
sulio | mezquitale kk will do, ty all | 04:47 |

bleepbloop | edbian: well I didn't even know there was a version in reops | 04:49 |
edbian | bleepbloop, I'm not 100% but I think there is | 04:49 |

cloud | how about flac | 04:56 |
Windy | meowbuntu, you can use a lot of different things to do that, but you have to install special packages | 04:56 |
cloud | ? | 04:56 |
MachinTruc | so i can't use gparted to format it | 04:56 |
l1nUx1z3r | i installed kubuntu over karmic (ubuntu 9.10), how do i remove it? | 04:56 |
genii | !puregnome | 04:56 |

Windy | anybody know where the grub2 splashimages are now located? sudo apt-get install grub2-splashimages doesn't work for me | 04:57 |
meowbuntu | windy really such as. it should be default right | 04:57 |
mezquitale | MachinTruc, check on the upper right corner, you should be able to change the hard drive from maybe sda1 to sda2 | 04:57 |
mezquitale | !splash | 04:57 |
ubottu | To change the Gnome splash screen, use gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor. | 04:57 |
MachinTruc | mezquitale: that's what i mean, it no longer shows up there | 04:58 |
bleepbloop | wait so | 04:58 |
mezquitale | MachinTruc, have you tried a live CD? | 04:58 |
bleepbloop | how do i check repos for pidgin | 04:58 |
MachinTruc | mezquitale: used to show up as sdc until 5 mins ago. now i just have sda and sdb (my two main drives). | 04:58 |
meowbuntu | windy sych as | 04:58 |
MachinTruc | mezquitale: nope, just ubuntu. | 04:58 |
Windy | meowbuntu, I was using rthymbox, I think... it's been a while since I last attempted mp3s with Ubuntu. What are you trying to rip them for? Listening on your comp, iPod, mp3 player...? | 04:59 |
meowbuntu | *such | 04:59 |
=== ugliefrog is now known as X-Frog |
meowbuntu | yes that stuff. cd ripper i used on linux mint worked like a dreem on that os | 04:59 |
meowbuntu | ^ Windy | 04:59 |
mezquitale | MachinTruc, can you list your hard drive using lsusb? | 04:59 |
meowbuntu | lsusb | 05:00 |
Windy | meowbuntu, I really think that mp3s are a waste of time on ubuntu unless you need them for ipod or mp3 player. What do you need the files for? | 05:00 |
simplechat | heyyas, any reason why exim wouldn't be sending mail to the root user? | 05:00 |
MachinTruc | mezquitale: don't see it. tons of generic "linux foundation root hub" , one mouse, one keyboard | 05:01 |
bullgard | Synaptic: "totem-xine is a simple media player for the GNOME desktop (transitional package)." From where to where is this transition? | 05:01 |
mezquitale | MachinTruc, also try hitting "refresh devices" in gparted | 05:01 |
MachinTruc | mezquitale: did that a long time ago. what's weird, Windows 7 also doesn't detect the drive. | 05:01 |
atari2600a | I need help | 05:01 |
atari2600a | I need to kill gphoto2, AKA PtP | 05:01 |
atari2600a | how can I do this!? | 05:01 |
atari2600a | I *really* need to use my camera as a mass-storage device as it's the only thing here that supports SDHC | 05:02 |
meowbuntu | Windy i use mp3 for all my music. cause they are the best format with cross platform and devices ready | 05:02 |
atari2600a | (& I need boot-sector access) | 05:02 |
Windy | okay. What version of ubuntu are you running, meowbuntu? | 05:03 |
paragonc | howdy - I'm having some weird audio issues. My system audio seems to be delayed. Even Turning down the volume has a 3 second lag from when the slider moves, and when the volume actually changes. Watching videos, the audio slowly falls behind the video, and after a few minutes its unwatchable. It does it in VLC, it does it in Boxee, it does it in Firefox through veetle, flash, etc. | 05:03 |
mezquitale | MachinTruc, disconnect the device and then remount your filesystems: "sudo mount -a", then do lsusb, then connect the device, then do lsbusb again and see if there's any difference from the first time you tried lsusb | 05:03 |
atari2600a | anyone? | 05:03 |
meowbuntu | ubuntu 9.10 what else | 05:04 |
Hunt1 | hi all , can anyone pls check this problem of mine with xx264? http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m5f029fd0 | 05:04 |
mezquitale | paragonc, sounds like an issue with pulseaudio, I would search the forums or launchpad | 05:04 |
Windy | lol what else | 05:04 |
bullgard | !patience | atari2600a | 05:04 |
ubottu | atari2600a: 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. | 05:04 |
MachinTruc | mezquitale: that did it! | 05:05 |
paragonc | mezquitale: pulseaudio is a pretty expansive subject - any direction on that? | 05:05 |
mezquitale | MachinTruc, you can now see your drive in gparted? | 05:05 |
MachinTruc | mezquitale: out of curiosity what did we just do? what did remounting the fs do? | 05:05 |
MachinTruc | mezquitale: yes I can | 05:05 |
conchipconchip | PHAT | 05:06 |

skrite | i have about a 3 second long avi. I would like to make the individual frames a gif file for a website, how can i do that? | 05:06 |
Windy | meowbuntu: sounds like RubyRipper might be your best bet | 05:07 |
MachinTruc | skrite: i'd use avidemux to remove the unwanted frames, leaving an avi with just your desired video, then use mplayer to convert it to gif. | 05:07 |
mezquitale | MachinTruc, machines get confused every now and then with devices like that, winblows blue screens, or simply fails and you have to reboot, what you basically did is unmounted your file systems, then remounted the file systems in your fstab config file, you had a clean system again without rebooting, then you put in your thumb drive again--this time you didnt confuse linux | 05:07 |
MachinTruc | well thanks a lot mezquitale | 05:08 |
mezquitale | no problem | 05:08 |
skrite | MachinTruc, did not know mplayer can do that, thanks | 05:08 |
mezquitale | paragon, just go to the forms or launchpad and describe your problem in the search string and use "pulseaudio" | 05:09 |
meowbuntu | sound-juicer does not allow me to extract to mp3 how can i do that. do i need a codex for it | 05:10 |
mezquitale | skrite, you want to ask that question in #ubuntustudio when someone is around, try on a weeknight | 05:10 |
Windy | Does anybody know where the grub2 splash images are located? The link I have gotten from multiple locations does not work for me. | 05:10 |
skrite | mezquitale, will do, thanks | 05:10 |
bastid_raZor | Windy: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 about half way down that page it talks about grub splash images | 05:13 |
genii | Windy: According to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Splash%20Images%20&%20Theming .."GRUB 2 by default will look for splash images in /boot/grub and /usr/share/images/desktop-base" | 05:13 |
meowbuntu | Grub 2 is to confusing bring back easy simple grub. that worked like a dream with no hastels for anyone. or just make grub 2 easy to configur llike grub was | 05:13 |
mindfast | is there anyone here who could assist me with some troubles im currently having with connecting to the internet with ubuntu 9.10 | 05:13 |
maco | meowbuntu: i dont think either is easier or harder. i think its more of what you've had a lot of practice with | 05:14 |
bastid_raZor | meowbuntu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 explains it fairly well. | 05:15 |
bullgard | Synaptic: "totem-xine is a simple media player for the GNOME desktop (transitional package)." From where to where is this transition? | 05:15 |
Windy | meowbuntu, do you have restricted stuff like LAME installed? | 05:15 |
bullgard | mindfast: "some troubles" is no exact description. | 05:15 |
* Windy dislikes faulty internet networks | 05:16 |
meowbuntu | windy no what for | 05:16 |
meowbuntu | * what that for | 05:16 |
mindfast | as in i cant connect to the internet at all | 05:17 |
resumebg | anyone know how to resume a program suspended with ctrl+z (sleep) | 05:17 |
kzero | resumebg: fg? | 05:17 |

kzero | http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/816-0210/6m6nb7m9c?a=view | 05:18 |
resumebg | kzero: but i see it in htop / top | 05:18 |
Windy | meowbuntu, mp3 encoding is a proprietary filetype - someone owns it and won't share - and so it isn't enabled by default. the LAME library (and several other libraries that I got all confused and totally messed up everything with) try to ...um, get around the restriction? I don't really understand the why's myself, but *shrug* that's life. | 05:18 |
kzero | resumebg: Yes. | 05:18 |
meowbuntu | windy do you know how to do that | 05:19 |
kzero | resumebg: You need to find the job_id and use fg <job_id> | 05:19 |
bullgard | mindfast: First insert an Ubuntu Live CD and boot. Does this get Internet access for you? | 05:20 |
resumebg | kzero: how do i find the job_id, its not the same as the pid | 05:20 |
gonzojive | i just installed 9.10 onto a software RAID1 configuration, but grub does not even get to the boot menu | 05:20 |
gonzojive | my system hangs at "grub loading." | 05:20 |
Windy | meowbuntu: make sure you have everything you like about your install saved somehow, even if it is just steps written somewhere to follow again on a clean install, and then try this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CDRipping#RubyRipper | 05:20 |
rcscomp | I have two monitors and somehow the settings for the second monitor are not there anymore. How can I regenerate them? | 05:20 |
genii | resumebg: jobs | 05:20 |
gonzojive | any ideas how to get it to boot / diagnose the problem? | 05:20 |
resumebg | genii: jobs yields nothing but i see it in htop / top | 05:21 |
genii | resumebg: zombified? | 05:21 |
resumebg | genii: no, accessing after re-sshing | 05:21 |
kzero | have you tried using PID? | 05:22 |
resumebg | kzero: yes | 05:22 |
kzero | hmmm | 05:22 |
kzero | if it's the only job try fg %0 | 05:23 |
mindfast | im not sure what you mean? | 05:23 |
resumebg | kzero: no such job, but thanks for the suggestion | 05:24 |
mindfast | i have the cd in. but boot it how? | 05:24 |
kzero | np....my sysadmin skills are really sucking now adays, gah! | 05:25 |
Windy | meowbuntu, I have to go, but I wish you luck! | 05:25 |
bullgard | mindfast: Switch on your computer. | 05:25 |
kzero | This Mac has made my sysadmin skills atrophy | 05:25 |
Windy | meowbuntu: remember - Google is your friend! | 05:25 |
mindfast | ok. | 05:26 |
meowbuntu | thanks windy | 05:26 |

mindfast | I have Ubuntu 9.10 installed. everything seemed to install fine. Only problem is i cannot connect to the internet. Ive tried 2 different network cards. neither seemed to work? | 05:35 |
bullgard | mindfast: If you are talking to me, please prepend your messages to me with my nick 'bullgard'. | 05:35 |
bullgard | Have you got now Internet access? | 05:36 |
resumebg | mindfast: you can also try wicd, that might fix it | 05:36 |
bullgard | mindfast: Have you got now Internet access? | 05:36 |
Xfact | mindfast: are you use connection that required Username and password? | 05:36 |
nomnex | nothing on the release not page of a default permission change on USB ext4 formatted HD. Need some feedback. Anyone with a USB HD formatted ext4 on 9.10, is there a permission change from ROOT (as it used to be) to the default logged user account? thanks | 05:37 |

Xfact | cause I had the same problem in Karmic 1 week ago | 05:39 |
Xfact | I solved it this way | 05:39 |
mindfast | had to restart system will try taht | 05:39 |
resumebg | Xfact: he doesn't have pppoe if he needs no username and password usually | 05:40 |
gonzojive | anyone have any idea why GRUB would hang after displaying "GRUB loading." and nothing else? | 05:41 |
resumebg | !wicd | mindfast | 05:41 |
Xfact | resumebg: first time it need username and password to set connection and after that no username and password needed, maybe he doesn't know that or maybe he doesn't have pppoe...I just suggest that i know :) | 05:42 |
mindfast | i dont have a user name or pw.... it should be straight access | 05:42 |
nomnex | gonzojive, do you have an intel chipset? | 05:43 |
gonzojive | nomnex: AMD64 | 05:43 |
resumebg | mindfast, try another network manager, such as wicd (wicd.sourceforge.net) | 05:43 |
vecken | hello? | 05:43 |
vecken | anyone here? | 05:43 |
resumebg | vecken: go ahead and ask your question | 05:44 |
vecken | ok, i have a little bit of experience with linux, i went to resize some partitions with g-parted and messed up the boot sector | 05:44 |
vecken | i try to rebuild grub and i get error 15: file not found | 05:44 |
vecken | i looked online and did not find my specific problem | 05:45 |
vecken | only how to rebuidl grub | 05:45 |
vecken | rebuild* | 05:45 |
resumebg | vecken: are you using grub2 or grub? | 05:45 |
vecken | i am unsure, whichever came with ubuntu 9.10 | 05:45 |
resumebg | vecken: for future reference, don't resize windows operating system ntfs partitions, it can damage the windows bootloader | 05:45 |
resumebg | vecken: lucky for you its grub2, and theres an easy way to reconfigure | 05:46 |
vecken | i did not resize the windows one, only the EXT4 partition to make room for windows 7 and slax | 05:46 |
vecken | what are the steps/link to re-install grub2? | 05:47 |
nomnex | anyone with default permissions on /media/usb HD, if they have change to the logged user account vs (root), there is no need to format external device as fat32, but I can't be positive about the change, I am still on 9.04 | 05:47 |
resumebg | vecken: im searching for the command, forgot it currently, but there is a rescan command for grub2 to detect the OS'es | 05:47 |
vecken | ok, this is on a netbook so i have the ubuntu ISO on a flash drive, i also have a 9.04 live CD, which should i use? | 05:47 |
ZykoticK9 | !grub2 | vecken | 05:47 |
ubottu | vecken: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 05:47 |
resumebg | vecken: try this: sudo update-grub | 05:48 |
mindfast | how do i uninstall the network-manager. It says i cannot install wicd because of conflicts. | 05:48 |
nomnex | !grub2 | 05:48 |
ZykoticK9 | vecken, did you upgrade or fresh install 9.10? | 05:48 |
resumebg | mindfast: sudo apt-get remove network-manager && sudo apt-get install wicd | 05:48 |
vecken | ok, one moment, need to restart the netbook with the USB (9.10) | 05:48 |
vecken | ps. this is why i love the linux community | 05:49 |
RocketLauncher | I Just did sudo apt-get upgrade and my bm43 restricted driver was removed. I can't even get it back. | 05:49 |
ZykoticK9 | vecken, which is why you're making room for Win7 - makes sense ;) | 05:49 |
nomnex | gonzojive, I had the similar problem with an old intel chipset, I don't know about ADM64 | 05:49 |
mindfast | how do i enter the sudo pw? when i try it enters nothing | 05:50 |
vecken | i use windows 7 for school, i only keep XP on a 20gb partition for compatibility testing | 05:50 |
resumebg | RocketLauncher: try finding and downloading the bm43 *.deb file to install locally with sudo dpkg --install *.deb | 05:50 |
vecken | ubuntu is my primary | 05:50 |
resumebg | RocketLauncher: is bm43 for the processor or wireless? | 05:51 |
RocketLauncher | resumebg, wireless | 05:51 |
RocketLauncher | resumebg, i think it was bm43, i'm not sure. it's for my wmp54gs | 05:51 |
vecken | grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for / | 05:52 |

nomnex | 1281 connected and no answer for such simple questions: what's your default permissions on a USB HD auto-monted on media 1) root 2) logged user account? | 05:53 |
resumebg | RocketLauncher: using the 24 version of firmware instead of bm43 is more stable for the wmp54gs | 05:53 |
RocketLauncher | resumebg, where can i get this | 05:53 |
resumebg | vecken: sorry, never came across that error, sounds like / shouldn't be a device, just in the /dev s are the device | 05:53 |
ZykoticK9 | finemann, thought about creating a new user to test? | 05:53 |
edbian | jerico_, you should pick something easier to learn to start. DNS server is hard | 05:53 |
vecken | hmm | 05:54 |
resumebg | RocketLauncher: I checked and packages.ubuntu.com doesn't have it for ubuntu, try getting it from openwrt.com maybe for the router | 05:54 |
mindfast | resumebg now what | 05:54 |
finemann | ZykoticK9: i am on a network..only admins can do that | 05:54 |
mindfast | i have it installed | 05:54 |
vecken | ill try mounting it, and the wiki does not seem to be specific to my problem | 05:54 |
geirha | jerico_: Have you read the Ubuntu Server Guide? It has a chapter on setting up dhcp https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/ | 05:54 |
finemann | any way i can get a new config? | 05:54 |
resumebg | mindfast: ok, now try going to Applications --> Internet --> Wicd Manager | 05:55 |
KithKannan | Morning all you people who are smarter than I am. | 05:56 |

DBCOOPA | installed ubuntu 9.10. no sound. anyone had similiar issues and found a fix | 05:56 |
resumebg | vecken: grub2 should be able to be installed at any time and refreshed with that command after OS installations | 05:56 |
nomnex | please? | 05:56 |
vecken | thats what i am going to try | 05:56 |
jerico_ | geirha: Thanks for the link. Yeah I've read it. I think my network card just isn't being detected or something. My /etc/network/interfaces file only had eth0 | 05:57 |
Hald | hi folks | 05:57 |

mindfast | still no connection | 05:57 |
resumebg | vecken: wise man :) | 05:57 |
gerzel | I have a question about using SSH to log into my home computer from the internet. I can do it when I'm behind my own router but don't know how to adress it so I can logon from outside. I was wondering if you knew how or could point me in the right direction. | 05:57 |
Delay | i need help to restore grub2, i'm now booting from live cd and i follow the instruction from http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/how-to-recover-grub2-linux.html but i get lost here. please help. thanks | 05:57 |
jerico_ | geirha: eth0 is being used for my DSL so I wanted to use eth1 for DHCP | 05:57 |
KithKannan | edbian if you can help me fix my problem, you're smarter than me AND the guru who convinced me to switch to ubuntu | 05:57 |
maco | jerico_: what does /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules have? | 05:57 |
geirha | jerico_: ''ifconfig'' only lists lo and eth0 ? | 05:57 |
Slix | This is it! | 05:57 |
maco | er, or that | 05:58 |
edbian | gerzel, I can help alot. First go to "myipaddress.com" or google "my ip address" | 05:58 |
DBCOOPA | Need sound help for 9.10 if anyone can. | 05:58 |
Hald | I have a problem with Stellarium. I installed the latest version and get this "stellarium: error while loading shared libraries: libQtOpenGL.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" when trying to run the program. I have tryed to find a deb package for qqtopengl but with no luck installing it from the repos. what should I do? | 05:58 |
ZykoticK9 | gerzel, you'll need to open the SSH port on your firewall/router to forward to your internal IP address | 05:58 |
Slix | For the last 30 minutes, I forgot I was using Ubuntu and wasn't using Windows. | 05:58 |
Slix | :D | 05:58 |
edbian | gerzel, That IP address is your public IP. It probably is dynamic if you are doing this from home. | 05:58 |
resumebg | gerzel: you have to login to the router and open port 22 (or the port SSH is listening on) on the router, or put the computer (its local 192.168.x.x IP) into DMZ mode if your router supports that | 05:58 |
edbian | gerzel, That IP address will get you to the router from anywhere in the world over the internet | 05:58 |
vecken | windows 7 is not half bad, its the first version of windows that has no major issues | 05:58 |
edbian | gerzel, Understand? | 05:58 |
edbian | vecken, so far... | 05:58 |
gerzel | Yes I do thanks | 05:58 |
edbian | gerzel, Now you need to port forward on the router. Do you know how to do that? | 05:59 |
jerico_ | geirha: ifconfig lists both | 05:59 |
gerzel | open port 22, and get my public ip adress | 05:59 |
KithKannan | Need help with sound/video glitching on ubuntu 9.04 | 05:59 |
edbian | gerzel, you need to forward port 22 to the IP address on the LAN of your ssh server. yes | 05:59 |
vecken | ok, i think i found the specific problem im having on the wiki, thanks guys | 05:59 |
=== cp is now known as Guest40350 |
jerico_ | maco: both NICs are in that file as well | 05:59 |
geirha | jerico_: eth0 and eth1? Is eth1 wired or wireless? | 05:59 |
maco | jerico_: then both are being detected | 06:00 |
edbian | gerzel, Be aware though that once you have port 22 forwarded random hackers will start attempting to to log into your ssh server with random usernames and passwords | 06:00 |
edbian | gerzel, It's a good idea to deny root login and other such security upgrades | 06:00 |
resumebg | edbian: but openssh-server is quite secure, especially since its bsd-approved | 06:00 |
geirha | jerico_: You just need to add a static entry for it in interfaces. https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/network-configuration.html | 06:01 |
jerico_ | geirha: yes eth0 and eth1 both are ethernet | 06:01 |
edbian | gerzel, what resumebg said is true. It is still a little safer to only allow 1 user name (your user name) to log in. Reduces the probably of those hackers guessing correctly | 06:01 |
jerico_ | Okay, I already added the static but I wasn't sure if that would do it. Thanks for the help. | 06:01 |
mindfast | so it still wont connect to internet... | 06:01 |
edbian | gerzel, Any questions? | 06:02 |
resumebg | mindfast: over ethernet you say? | 06:02 |
mindfast | yes | 06:02 |
DBCOOPA | Anyone know why no sound in 9.10. Alsamixer is installed up to date. nothing stupid like a mute button enabled. | 06:03 |
resumebg | try going to Applications --> Internet --> Wicd Manager --> Preferences --> check both "Always..." and OK | 06:03 |
RocketLauncher | how do i get my drivers back after sudo apt-get upgrade removed them? | 06:03 |
IdleOne | DBCOOPA: possibly a mute button. check alsamixer | 06:03 |
KithKannan | ok, I'll just throw this out there. I installed Ubuntu 9.04 and updated my nvidia graphics drivers. My sound works fine when I'm not doing anything interesting (i.e. playing a straight audio file or using Mangler) but if I start playing my game or play an audio file with a visualizer running, the sound gets all glitchy | 06:04 |
DBCOOPA | Its not a mute button. | 06:04 |
DBCOOPA | I checked all the usual stuff. | 06:04 |
mindfast | nothing | 06:05 |
resumebg | DBCOOPA: I know a workaround (compile alsa from source) | 06:05 |
mindfast | gets stuck on obtaining ip address... | 06:05 |
IdleOne | DBCOOPA: ahh sorry, I misread you | 06:05 |
jerico_ | If I set a static IP address for eth1 should the line "auto eth1" be in my interfaces file? | 06:05 |
resumebg | mindfast: try disconnect and try to reconnect at least five times | 06:05 |
edbian | jerico_, yes | 06:05 |
DBCOOPA | ok. | 06:05 |
DBCOOPA | i'll try to compile. | 06:05 |
resumebg | mindfast: I get this error sometimes | 06:05 |
KithKannan | anyone have an idea? | 06:05 |
lwizardl | hi | 06:05 |
resumebg | lwizardl: welcome, feel free to ask your question | 06:06 |
RocketLauncher | I did sudo apt-get upgrade and my wireless drivers was removed. it's not in restricted devices either. what should I do? | 06:06 |
lwizardl | how do i create removal guides as a layer in gimp? i am trying to create a new layer and add guides so then when I uncheck the layer the guides will disappear, but they are still there when i uncheck the layer | 06:07 |
jerico_ | So if in my interfaces I set a static IP then shouldn't ifconfig reflect that? It isn't listing any IPV4 addresses in my ifconfig output | 06:07 |
resumebg | RocketLauncher: maybe the manufact. has it on their website (i believe broadcom) | 06:07 |
jerico_ | Do I need to restart my network for it to take effect? | 06:07 |
RocketLauncher | resumebg, i'll check | 06:07 |
geirha | jerico_: Yes, or just take up/down the specific device with ''sudo ifup eth1''/''sudo ifdown eth1'' | 06:08 |
ZykoticK9 | jerico_, do you have your DNS server addresses recorded somewhere? you'll need them if you've switched to static IP | 06:08 |
strongsoul | i go mad when my ubuntu 9 wont connect to any wireless network all of sudden, inspite of specfying the network key | 06:09 |
geirha | ZykoticK9: No, his eth0 is dynamic, it should provide dns. He wants to run a dhcp server on eth1 | 06:09 |
jerico_ | ZykoticK9: eth0 gets DNS server addresses from my ISP. Somehow I need to tell it to give it to eth1 or something. | 06:10 |
strongsoul | any help would be very timely | 06:10 |
resumebg | strongsoul: you could try another network manager, such as wicd; are you familiar with that? | 06:10 |
strongsoul | resumebg, nope | 06:10 |
strongsoul | should i install or it is default ? | 06:10 |
bahodir | hi guys, | 06:10 |
jerico_ | when I type ifdown eth1 it says eth1 not configured | 06:11 |
nomnex | still nobody with my question, I want to know if /etc/hal/... preferences.fdi in the machine running 9.10 has been modified of this is the default setting for 9.10 thansk | 06:11 |
bahodir | is there a command similar to gksu but without root privileges? | 06:11 |
strongsoul | resumebg, got it, whats the name of current default one ? | 06:11 |
strongsoul | il uninstall it | 06:11 |
resumebg | strongsoul: http://wicd.sourceforge.net, the current is network-manager or network-manager-gnome i believe | 06:11 |
resumebg | strongsoul: download the package first (wicd) before removing current | 06:11 |
mindfast | still no connection | 06:12 |
resumebg | bahodir: maybe gksudo? | 06:12 |
strongsoul | resumebg, am doing a apt-get install | 06:12 |
strongsoul | is that good ? | 06:12 |
resumebg | strongsoul: that should work | 06:12 |
geirha | jerico_: Expected if you haven't already brought it up with ifup | 06:12 |
KithKannan | Anyone have any idea why my sound would become choppy when my computer is doing anything graphical (running a game, using an audio visualizer, playing a movie, etc) but run fine at all other times? | 06:12 |
Tamnakz | is there an irc room for wireless help? | 06:13 |
strongsoul | resumebg, wicd installed, now when i type network-manager it says failed to load some applets | 06:13 |
strongsoul | and quits | 06:13 |
ZykoticK9 | bahodir, FYI gksu = gksudo -- what do you mean, if you don't want root priviledges just run the program directly?!?! | 06:13 |
resumebg | strongsoul: try the most recent on wicd.sourceforge.net | 06:13 |
Xfact | I ma running karmic and my sound settings is set to headphones, how to change it to sub woofer or sound box? | 06:13 |
Xfact | ? | 06:13 |
resumebg | strongsoul: ubuntu doesn't update fast enough for wicd much of the time (and their own repos) | 06:13 |
jerico_ | geirha: Failed to bring up eth1. | 06:14 |
jerico_ | eth1 outputs Don't seem to be have all the variables for eth1/inet. | 06:14 |
jerico_ | er. ifup eth1 outputs that | 06:14 |

RocketLauncher | this blows my mind this even happened in the first place | 06:14 |
jerico_ | what the shit is a eth1/inet? | 06:15 |
bullgard | Synaptic: "totem-xine is a simple media player for the GNOME desktop (transitional package)." From where to where is this transition? | 06:15 |
geirha | jerico_: pastebin your interfaces file. ''pastebinit /etc/network/interfaces'' | 06:15 |
strongsoul | resumebg, If you are using Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty), Wicd 1.5.9 is in the universe repository, so a simple sudo apt-get install wicd will do it. | 06:15 |
strongsoul | ???? | 06:15 |
resumebg | RocketLauncher: thats all i knew about that driver (very little to being) maybe someone else here might know more | 06:15 |
bahodir | ZykoticK9: thanks for your answer, please take a look at http://superuser.com/questions/94185/gksu-without-root-privileges | 06:15 |
geirha | jerico_: pastebinit is not installed by default, so you may need to install it. | 06:15 |
resumebg | strongsoul: if it doesn't try 1.6 | 06:15 |
resumebg | strongsoul: if it doesn't try 1.6.2.2 is the latest i believe | 06:16 |
jerico_ | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m101ca631 | 06:16 |
ZykoticK9 | bahodir, is this a terminal command? or a GUI command? if it's terminal you'll need "run in terminal" for your launcher | 06:16 |
jerico_ | I might have patebin'd that correctly | 06:16 |
bahodir | ZykoticK9: it's a terminal command, but it brings up a GUI program | 06:17 |
strongsoul | resumebg, apt-get install has installed 1.6.1 in my system | 06:17 |
jerico_ | coke cola is amazing | 06:17 |
strongsoul | 1 min | 06:17 |
ZykoticK9 | bahodir, try something like "gnome-terminal -e /path/to/pida-run.py" | 06:18 |
bahodir | ZykoticK9: i did what you told (and the guy on superuser), and it opens fine. but is there a way not to show terminal a t all? | 06:18 |
geirha | jerico_: Replace the network line with a netmask line. ''netmask 255.255.255.0'' for instance. | 06:18 |
bahodir | ZykoticK9: ok | 06:18 |
ZykoticK9 | bahodir, if it starts in a terminal (you need a terminal)?!?! | 06:19 |
Hald | How can I repair a package? | 06:19 |
geirha | jerico_: ''man interfaces'' explains the syntax of that file btw. | 06:19 |
bahodir | ZykoticK9: ok, thanks | 06:19 |
resumebg | Hald: can you provide more detail please? | 06:19 |
Hald | I'm trying to install libqt4-opengl-ubuntu1.4 but get the message that I have to repair the package. Its not even installed.... | 06:20 |
bahodir | buy guys | 06:20 |
ZykoticK9 | Hald, have you tried "sudo apt-get -f install" | 06:20 |
RocketLauncher | can someone help me? I did sudo apt-get upgrade and my wireless drivers were removed. I got them from restricted devices. I can't get them back now either. What do I do? | 06:21 |
jerico_ | geirha: You're awesome. that worked. | 06:21 |
resumebg | Hald: maybe try sudo dpkg --configure -a | 06:21 |
Oak | Does anyone know where the pidgin theme folder located? | 06:21 |
resumebg | RocketLanucher: for everyone else, you might want to include the exact driver in your question next repeat | 06:21 |
Dravekx | why do I keep seeing 11 packages can be updated.??? | 06:22 |
jerico_ | That even got my DHCP server working! | 06:22 |
geirha | jerico_: Great! :) | 06:22 |
ZykoticK9 | Oak, probably either in ~/.purple or /usr/share/purple -- i don't have any themes installed so not sure | 06:22 |
edbian | jerico_, See! Not so hard after all | 06:22 |
Dravekx | I updated, and I keep seeing "11 packages can be updated." | 06:22 |
resumebg | Dravekx: there are system or software updates, to upgrade, try sudo apt-get upgrade in terminal | 06:23 |
Oak | ZykoticK9: I just needed some general direction in which to go. I'll check though, thanks | 06:23 |
Hald | ZykoticK9: I get this "libqt4-opengl: Beroende av: libqtcore4 (= 4.4.3-0ubuntu1) men 4.4.3-0ubuntu1.4 kommer att installeras Beroende av: libqtgui4 (= 4.4.3-0ubuntu1) men 4.4.3-0ubuntu1.4 kommer att installeras" | 06:23 |
RocketLauncher | resumebg, i'll do that | 06:23 |

Hald | ZykoticK9: it means libqtcore4 (= 4.4.3-0ubuntu1) but 4.4.3-0ubuntu1.4 will be installed. It makes no sense at all | 06:24 |
maco | Hald: try running "sudo apt-get update"? | 06:25 |
ZykoticK9 | Hald, sorry man that's very application specific I don't know what to suggest for you | 06:25 |
pyramid | hi | 06:25 |
Dravekx | edbian, anyway to clean up the server of programs and things Im not using? | 06:25 |
maco | Hald: it means your libqt4-opengl is looking for older libraries than what's currently in the repos | 06:25 |
Dravekx | "easy way?" | 06:25 |
edbian | Dravekx, use aptitude instead of apt-get it does it for you | 06:25 |
pyramid | could someone help me with squidguard? i have set it up according to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SquidGuard -- but i would like the proxy to only work for selected ip:s | 06:25 |
Hald | maco I see. Thank you. | 06:25 |
edbian | Dravekx, sudo apt-get clean and sudo apt-get auto-clean | 06:25 |
sigmab3ta | hey guys, running karmic right now, just went on an uninstalling spree of stuff thats in a default setup, now i dont have a volume control applet. anyone know what package contains it? | 06:26 |
Dravekx | great! :) | 06:26 |
edbian | Dravekx, sudo apt-get autoremove | 06:26 |
maco | sigmab3ta: pulseaudio | 06:26 |
ZykoticK9 | sigmab3ta, did you try and remove pulseaudio? | 06:26 |
sigmab3ta | pulseaudio is installed | 06:26 |
edbian | Dravekx, That will remove programs not being used. Unfortunately the home folder still retains all sorts of settings in those hidden . folders | 06:26 |
sigmab3ta | last thing i uninstalled was brasero and rhythmbox (im on a netbook so no cd drive and i want to use songbird) | 06:26 |
Hald | I solved my problem by downloading the package from http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/i386/libqt4-opengl/download. Thanks for all the help and I will try runing apt-get update next time I run into problems. Thanks folks, you are the best! | 06:26 |

chuche | RocketLauncher, try searching for the drivers directly from Synaptic. Sometimes Jockey, the Restricted Hardware app, messes up after an upgrade. I suspect it has to do with it losing the server in which the drivers are at. | 06:44 |
nandu | I guyes I have rebuild index of my INBOX Folder & after that all my old mails are gone, any idea how to recover that gone mails? | 06:44 |

Xfact | hello | 07:05 |
c0nnection | is Ctrl + T used by anything, anyone? | 07:05 |
powertool08 | Tamnakz: Yep, its a packet capture program so you can visually see the traffic on your network in a detailed manner. | 07:05 |
mondragon | If fdisk has a partition size limit, and parted doesn't support many filesystems....I'm missing something about how to make big partitions, right? :-) | 07:05 |

Tamnakz | powertool08 ok, I'm looking for something that'll help me find networks. . . is there a simple way to use this program to do so? | 07:06 |
ZykoticK9 | c0nnection, not by default it seems -- i just made it my Open Terminal shortcut -- thanks :) | 07:06 |
Xfact | yea it's open new tab in all web browser | 07:06 |
mondragon | or should I just ignore fdisk telling me my disk is really big... | 07:06 |
Tamnakz | powertool08 I open the program, and it seems to be finding no data? | 07:06 |
ZykoticK9 | c0nnection, sorry i really used WindowsKey+T not ctrl | 07:07 |
MorphyNOR | Tamnakz: wireshark will not help you find networks | 07:07 |
dukz | hi guys. are there any guides to setting up a virtual server host out there? and what' sthe best solution i have? Xen? | 07:07 |
MorphyNOR | Tamnakz: are you searching for wireless networks? | 07:07 |
RocketLauncher | I have a Linksys WMP54GS. It has the BCM4318 chip. Restricted devices had the driver for me and it worked until I did sudo apt-get upgrade, which removed it. I can't get it back in restricted d\evices either. Any ideas? | 07:07 |

neil_d | mozul: if you boot from the CD can you mount it? | 07:10 |
geitenneuker | why is djmount removed in ubuntu? | 07:10 |
powertool08 | Tamnakz: iwlist might even be enough. I think it gives details on signal strength. | 07:11 |
MorphyNOR | it does | 07:11 |
Tamnakz | powertool08 iwlist? | 07:11 |
mozul | neil_d when I boot live cd, it doesnt respond to menu clicks. so I cant see if it would mount | 07:11 |
powertool08 | Tamnakz: Its the command line way to connect to a wifi network. | 07:11 |
MorphyNOR | Tamnakz: we will not help you to find and break encryptions on private wlan's | 07:12 |
MorphyNOR | so please stop asking | 07:12 |
powertool08 | Tamnakz: I can't remember the package name though. iw, iwconfig, iwtools? something like that. | 07:12 |
Tamnakz | morphynor I'm not hacking anything. . . three people have already given me permission to use their networks. . . I'm simply trying to find a program that'll give me decently accurate signal strengths so that I can decide which to try for. . . something similar to netstumbler I used with windows | 07:13 |

danielfeng | ok | 07:28 |
exploreralex | ZykoticK9:its already unchecked | 07:29 |
powertool08 | Tamnakz: IIRC, a larger # on signal to noise is better, the larger the dBm, the stronger the signal, and usually the closer the router. | 07:29 |
Tamnakz | and thus high noise level = bad? | 07:29 |
ZykoticK9 | exploreralex, and have you run "sudo apt-get update" since unchecking it? | 07:29 |
powertool08 | Tamnakz: Yes, high signal is good, high noise is bad. | 07:30 |
Tamnakz | powertool08 any knowledge about the relation to signal quality and level? quality shows a 42 (which is the 'strength' showed on the normal meter) and level is 89? | 07:31 |

songer | powertool08: i didn't know that i need to generate my private key | 07:48 |
ZykoticK9 | bullgard, have you tried changing your password in console and then tried with Update Manager? Just a suggestion. | 07:48 |
powertool08 | songer: Yep, it makes it more unique and harder to crack. It wouldn't be very effective if everyone received the same key pair after installing. | 07:49 |

bullgard | ZykoticK9: No, I have not. | 07:49 |

songer | powertool08: how can i get my private key? | 07:50 |
songer | ok i already have it | 07:50 |
bullgard | ZykoticK9: Your advice does not work. UpdateManager needs my password. | 07:51 |
dacs | bullgard: i can see all the boxes i have on my lan (windows) but not my ubuntu | 07:51 |
ZykoticK9 | bullgard, i'm suggesting you change your password in console - then you'll have to log out of your GUI and back in with the new password | 07:51 |
powertool08 | songer: Now run 'ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 2048' Note that the -t rsa is key type rsa, there is also a key type of dsa. Its up to you, I use rsa. Also, the -b 2048 is the number of bits in the key, I use a much higher number but I'm paranoid, again, it's up to you. | 07:52 |
bullgard | ZykoticK9: My password works when I log in. It does not work for UpdateManager, Synaptic and probably more GUI programs. | 07:53 |
ZykoticK9 | bullgard, doesn't work with the special character i take it -- why not try removing it/changing your password. | 07:53 |
bullgard | ZykoticK9: Because I cannot remember more than a few passwords. | 07:54 |
powertool08 | songer: This will generate your public/private keypair. After the command finishes, try 'ls' and you should see some files named id_rsa and id_rsa.pub. | 07:54 |

madis | Does it happen to you too, when doing apt-get install whatever, the whole cpu is accessed by it and harddrive does a lot of work - which leads to pc mostly unusable during the install | 07:56 |
ouyes | powertool08, which version? 8.04? | 07:56 |
Xfact | Which is the default file system of Ubuntu linux? | 07:56 |
madis | Xfact, ext4 | 07:56 |
powertool08 | ouyes: I use it on a debian box. | 07:56 |
Xfact | ohh... thanks guys for information :) | 07:57 |
arghh2d2 | Xfact: i recomend ext3, but a bunch in here are gonna tel you "ext4 all the way bro!" | 07:57 |
madis | arghh2d2, why ext3? | 07:57 |
ouyes | powertool08, i changed gnome to xfce because the cpu was 38% in use while i did nothing in gonme, but after the change, i never boot into xfce successfully,so i reinstalled the os | 07:58 |
powertool08 | songer: I also suggest putting a passphrase, this way, if your key is compromised (lost usb drive or something) then the person has to guess the passphrase too. | 07:58 |
ouyes | powertool08, why you use xfce? | 07:58 |
arghh2d2 | ext4 isnt as stable as i'd like it to be, and it's incompatible with with some things | 07:58 |
madis | powertool08, I also suggest checking out lxde | 07:59 |
madis | if you want low resource usage | 07:59 |
powertool08 | ouyes: I don't like gnome, I used kde until version 4 came out. KDE4 is worse than gnome, so I went to xfce. | 07:59 |
powertool08 | madis: I have :) | 07:59 |
ouyes | powertool08, frankly speaking, i prefer gnome it is beautiful, but it is slow on my laptop | 07:59 |
madis | Actually, I've also tried them all, but went with gnome, as it has the most developers in it and I enjoy the eyecandy | 08:00 |
powertool08 | ouyes: I'm somewhat of a minimalist, so I like that its lightweight, fairly fast. And it doesn't come bundled with tons of programs. | 08:00 |
ouyes | powertool08, you are funny | 08:00 |
songer | powertool08: i don't know what to do. 4096 | 08:00 |
madis | Though I'm not using Linux practically, so me using gnome doesn't mean much | 08:00 |
songer | Enter file in which to save the key (/home/songer/.ssh/id_rsa): | 08:00 |
powertool08 | songer: That's a good number for bits. | 08:00 |
powertool08 | songer: Go with the default | 08:01 |
powertool08 | songer: Then add a nice long, complex, yet easy to remember passphrase. | 08:01 |
ouyes | powertool08, il get used to it | 08:01 |
songer | just hit anter? | 08:01 |
powertool08 | songer: After your passphrase, yes. You should have to type it twice, then it will generate the key. | 08:02 |
ouyes | powertool08, the performance is the most important for a expert, or a hackert | 08:02 |
powertool08 | ouyes: Ha, I guess so. I'm on old hardware so its partially a necessity for me. Plus I like it. | 08:02 |

Sacho | a package of packages | 08:04 |

happy | 大家好 | 08:05 |
arghh2d2 | lol, i have a amd 3200+ too | 08:05 |
Sacho | it basically has a set of dependencies, that way you can package several single packages which you might often use together | 08:05 |
powertool08 | songer: How are you doing over there? Still waiting for it to finish generating the keys? | 08:05 |
titan_ark | and I thought my 1.9Gig P4 was worth sending to the museum :P | 08:06 |
ouyes | powertool08, what version of ubuntu are you using ? 8.04 or 9.04 ? is it stable, fast enough? is the older version always faster than the newer one? | 08:06 |
dacs | i can't ssh to my box its timing out please help | 08:06 |
madis | Funny, how stable Lucid is atm | 08:06 |
ouyes | happy, this is a English based channel | 08:06 |

My last update was 5 days ago. Anyway, after update it said "Reboot required" but after rebooting it won't boot up - gives me a grub prompt. What do I do from here? | 08:07 |
powertool08 | ouyes: But 8.04 worked pretty good for me back when I used it. 7.10 was horrible. | 08:07 |

powertool08 | dacs: I'll try. What's your issue? | 08:11 |
iAmerikan | tr The most I could recomend is reinstalling grub from live cd. (I'm kinda new to nix) If you want a good link I can grab one | 08:11 |
plustax | oh hi iAmerikan | 08:11 |
powertool08 | ouyes: Nope, until I learn myself another language I guess I don't. | 08:11 |
iAmerikan | but I'm not sure that I'm the best help, I just had a similar problem a bit back | 08:11 |
iAmerikan | lol plustax :D | 08:11 |

tr | madis: that looks like what I've got, minus the error message on boot. It will take me a while to read through that ... | 08:13 |
xaka | *use more than 1 CPU | 08:13 |
powertool08 | dacs: Did you follow the guide exactly? Changing it to port 2222 instead of 22? | 08:13 |
iAmerikan | ty https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows < guide I used. | 08:13 |
dacs | powertool08: i can't ssh from my windows machine to my ubuntu box, but in ubuntu box i did ssh name@hostname and it work | 08:14 |
ouyes | powertool08, what you mean another language ? you know any one language? you are a native speaker of english , aren't you ? | 08:14 |
dacs | powertool08: no, i thought ssh is on 22 | 08:14 |
powertool08 | dacs: Ah, you need putty, and a putty key. | 08:14 |
madis | tr, I usually use live cd and sh into my real ubuntu and do update-grub from there | 08:14 |
tr | thanks iAmerikan , I'll read that. | 08:14 |
powertool08 | dacs: According to web standards, it is. But you can run it on any port you want. I don't run mine on 22. It helps with the automated attacks. | 08:15 |
tr | madis: will that work if I'm runung wubi in a dual boot with xp ? | 08:15 |
powertool08 | ouyes: Yes, I'm a native speaker of english, and I'm not fluent in anything else | 08:16 |

ouyes | powertool08, there are wise people in the west,at least he have an advanced idea. | 08:18 |

powertool08 | dacs: Right, any port you want. I'd avoid the popular ones though, and most keep it at 22, or above 1024. | 08:19 |
dacs | powertool08: so why am not able to connect | 08:19 |
powertool08 | ouyes: Yep, there are a few of us. | 08:19 |
powertool08 | dacs: From linux to linux or from windows to linux? | 08:20 |
madis | Does anyone know if it's possible to use Ctrl+Alt+2 to produce @ sign? I'm rather used to it from Windows. I´m using Estonian keyboard layout, so you might not use such shortcut. | 08:20 |
LordDragon | should ubuntu just as battery efficient on the netbook as windows xp ? | 08:21 |
songer | powertool09: i don't see it | 08:21 |
LordDragon | er +be | 08:21 |
dacs | powertool08: does it matter? but to answer your question, at this point of time windows to linux | 08:21 |
tonyyarusso | bullgard, system>prefs>keyboard>layout options, make sure it's set right in there | 08:21 |
powertool08 | dacs: If you changed the port, you need to specify it with ssh -p <your port #> user@host. If its windows to linux, use putty. You can use putty-gen to make another keypair if you're using key based authentication, or you can import the linux key into putty. | 08:21 |
ouyes | LordDragon, nope as far as i know | 08:21 |
LordDragon | so windows xp will be alot more battery efficient ? | 08:22 |
powertool08 | songer: Ok, try 'locate id_rsa' and tell me if you get any results. | 08:22 |

meowbuntu | probably cause its got a space in name | 08:38 |
powertool08 | songer: Ok, try 'cd /home/songer/.ssh' | 08:39 |
dacs | powertool08: yes...and i tried putty and i am able to connect...maybe crt is caching an old key from the Debian box ..hmmmm | 08:39 |

powertool08 | songer: Is the id_rsa file there now? | 08:46 |
pradalvr | did that | 08:47 |
madis | pradalvr, and you could use sudo tasksel command to install lamp next time | 08:47 |
songer | yes | 08:47 |

madis | I think so | 08:48 |
* mobius2 has been playing with ubuntu for 30 days now | 08:48 |
madis | oh | 08:48 |
yang | songer: you should chmod 700 your authorized_keys file | 08:48 |
madis | you could | 08:48 |
mobius2 | I feel like I have a new limb :p | 08:48 |
madis | just stop apache | 08:48 |
Myrtti | !who | 08:48 |
ubottu | As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 08:48 |
powertool08 | Night0wl: Synergy is a software kvm. Not sure if its supported by linux though. | 08:48 |
powertool08 | Night0wl: And there's always ssh/vnc/freenx. Not exactly kvm but it will get the job done. | 08:49 |
ouyes | can upgrade the kernel of 8.04 to a high version??? | 08:49 |
madis | pradalvr, with sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 stop | 08:49 |
cobra679 | hi anyone know a good msn client for ubuntu | 08:49 |
tonyyarusso | powertool08, it is | 08:49 |
cobra679 | but not amsn | 08:49 |
cobra679 | or kopete | 08:49 |
songer | powertool08: cat id_rsa.pub >> authorized_keys, says no such file or directory | 08:50 |
madis | cobra679, Pidgin? | 08:50 |
cobra679 | do you have a code so i can get it in konsole ? | 08:50 |
tonyyarusso | ouyes, not remotely easily anyway. | 08:50 |
pradalvr | done | 08:50 |
pradalvr | it stopped | 08:50 |
madis | cobra679, or if you want a good "copy" of wlm, you could try emerald | 08:50 |
powertool08 | songer: Ok, that tab complete thing works in the terminal too. so try cat id_r <tab> >> auth<tab>. | 08:50 |
ouyes | tonyyarusso, what you mean? just cannot? | 08:50 |
pradalvr | Now to reinstall | 08:51 |
madis | cobra, I meant emesene | 08:51 |
ouyes | tonyyarusso, you know some application can not be realized under a low kernel | 08:51 |
rashed2020 | If an application is looking for a shared library, how do I set the path it looks in? | 08:51 |
Night0wl | powertool08: thanks for your advice | 08:52 |
infid | i have my svn checkouts in ~/checkouts but my php code is in ~/public_html. how the heck do i get my php code into svn like that? | 08:52 |
mobius2 | I have aircrack and airmon running quite well, but I seem to have "power managment" turned off which is causing some frustration when trying to pick a target network... does anyone know how to enable the power managment settings in wlan settings from terminal? | 08:52 |
tonyyarusso | ouyes, you can compile it, but have fun with the dependencies and compatibility issues cascading. | 08:52 |
mobius2 | where "power managment" I assume is a program which lets us know the rx power? | 08:53 |
songer | powertool08: it happened nothing | 08:53 |
meowbuntu | anyone able to help me set up wordpress i just downloaded it | 08:53 |
ouyes | tonyyarusso, i got you point you mean yes you can upgrade the kernel but there will be a lot of trouble? | 08:54 |
tonyyarusso | ouyes, likely anyway. no guarantees. | 08:54 |
mobius2 | meowbuntu I would suggest installing the apache xampp project main program which is a bundle of the apache server, phpmyadmin, and a sql server all bundled in one pack | 08:54 |
mobius2 | wordpress is cookie cutter....quite easy if you can set up a new DB | 08:54 |
powertool08 | Whooo! Involuntary restarts! I love 'em | 08:54 |
mobius2 | yikes | 08:55 |
mobius2 | how? | 08:55 |
powertool08 | songer: I might have missed the last thing or two you said | 08:55 |
powertool08 | Power failures for about 1 second, just enough to kill the computer. | 08:55 |
* powertool08 needs to invest in a UPS | 08:55 |
tonyyarusso | mobius2, why would you do that when linux makes them work together normally? | 08:55 |
ouyes | tonyyarusso, for the accessibility ,it 's better to use the corresponding kernel with the ubuntu release | 08:55 |
mobius2 | tonyyarusso what are you asking me? | 08:56 |
songer | powertool08: cat id_r (tab) it happened nothing | 08:56 |
tonyyarusso | mobius2, I'm telling you that xampp is unnecessary and silly. | 08:56 |
powertool08 | songer: Hmm... and when you did ls earlier you saw id_rsa and id_rsa.pub? | 08:57 |
mobius2 | actually it's quite relevant | 08:57 |
ouyes | here is a question for all , what version are you using now ? 8.04, 9.04, 9.10 and 10.04? | 08:57 |
mobius2 | dev servers helped me through school | 08:57 |
om26er | !ot | ouyes | 08:57 |
ubottu | ouyes: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 08:57 |
mobius2 | I for one thank the dev team | 08:57 |
mobius2 | good lord | 08:57 |
Myrtti | ouyes: please do not do polls here, the channel is far too busy without them already | 08:58 |
tonyyarusso | mobius2, I'm not arguing about apache servers; just the xampp distribution of the software. it makes no sense on Ubuntu. | 08:58 |
meowbuntu | mobius2, exactly what app is that in synaptic there is lots for apache nothing like xampp | 08:58 |
mobius2 | the packages are ancient | 08:58 |
songer | powertool08: no but is into the folder .shh | 08:58 |
talented | xampp takes away some of the configuring you'd have to do | 08:58 |
ouyes | om26er, Myrtti , ok, i just want to know which version is more popular, forger it | 08:59 |
temporarytao | tonyyarusso, is xampp lighter than lamp in terms of disk space and memory footprint? | 08:59 |
tonyyarusso | talented, there isn't any configuration necessary... | 08:59 |
mobius2 | xampp=lampp | 08:59 |
om26er | mobius2, #ubuntu-offtopic | 08:59 |
tonyyarusso | temporarytao, eh? it's the same stuff, just bypassing normal system management tools. | 08:59 |
mobius2 | lul | 08:59 |
songer | powertool08, i just see music desktop, documets, download | 08:59 |
temporarytao | meowbuntu, to install xampp, i think you have to download the package... | 09:00 |
powertool08 | songer: That's where is should be. Is there also a file named authorized_keys in .ssh? If not 'touch authorized_keys' | 09:00 |
talented | tonyyarusso, of course there is, if you install apache on your system, you can't use /var/www unless you claim the folder | 09:00 |
meowbuntu | tonyyarusso, mobius2 what do you mean it is it is not | 09:00 |
powertool08 | songer: cd /home/songer/.ssh It will make it easier | 09:00 |
tonyyarusso | talented, um, what? explain what you mean by that. | 09:00 |
mobius2 | does anyone know if it is possible to enable the "power management " option in a wifi usb adapter? | 09:00 |
talented | well, that's the location for your public html files, where all your web files go, but root owns it | 09:01 |
mobius2 | I cant tell how strong my network region is | 09:01 |
rashed2020 | If I stick something in /usr/lib, do all applications automatically look there for shared libraries? | 09:01 |
mobius2 | I am getting zero across the board on all networks | 09:01 |
temporarytao | tonyyarusso, i thought it installed on top of everything else. isn't that why it has its own directory for web files? | 09:01 |
tonyyarusso | talented, yeah duh. | 09:01 |
meowbuntu | how do i use wordpress i have it installed now | 09:01 |
songer | are, public key, id_rsa and id_rsa.pub | 09:01 |
mobius2 | and THAT | 09:01 |
mobius2 | is why to use lampp | 09:01 |
mobius2 | lol | 09:01 |
talented | at least, with xampp, it's all in one location, you want to get rid of it rm -rf the folder | 09:01 |
tonyyarusso | temporarytao, I ahve no idea what you're asking. | 09:01 |
om26er | !enter | mobius2 | 09:02 |
ubottu | mobius2: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 09:02 |
nulled | !lib | 09:02 |
powertool08 | songer: There's not an "authorized_keys" | 09:02 |
tonyyarusso | talented, this is 2010 - we have apt now. | 09:02 |
=== tkmr is now known as tk_afk |
mobius2 | looooool | 09:02 |
talented | is xampp in the repos? I didn't know that | 09:02 |
nulled | libs are symbolic links to the real lib files... | 09:02 |
songer | ok i already did, cd /home/songer/.ssh | 09:03 |
mobius2 | ubuntu needs emerge ish thing | 09:03 |
tonyyarusso | talented, nono - apache, php, and mysql are in the repos. | 09:03 |
temporarytao | tonyyarusso, :) | 09:03 |
temporarytao | meowbuntu, i think you need to google some wordpress tutorials | 09:03 |
temporarytao | as i remember it, the first step is to setup your databases | 09:03 |
om26er | mobius2, you will get kicked | 09:03 |
songer | powertool08, ~/.ssh$ | 09:03 |
talented | problem with xampp is it's not as current... if they had Uniform Server on Linux, it'd be a lot better | 09:03 |
mobius2 | agreed | 09:04 |
Night0wl | is there a key combo to switch between desktops? i don't know how to call them- not the tty1-7, but the seperate gui desktops | 09:04 |
mobius2 | but why arent they one in the same already? | 09:04 |
tonyyarusso | talented, how current do you want? | 09:04 |
henkpoley | I'm looking for the default package list of Ubuntu Karmic, is that available? So the packages you have when you install karmic fresh | 09:04 |
powertool08 | songer: Good, you're in the right folder. Now 'ls' and look for authorized_keys | 09:04 |
hiren | i want to deploy .net application on ubuntu ! | 09:04 |
hiren | what to do ? | 09:04 |
talented | well, it's more the security updates that I want current | 09:04 |
talented | not the bleeding edge | 09:04 |
powertool08 | Night0wl: shift+mousewheel works for me. | 09:05 |
temporarytao | hiren, go mono | 09:05 |
hiren | i have tried | 09:05 |
hiren | but confused | 09:05 |
henkpoley | hiren look at mono: http://www.mono-project.com/Main_Page | 09:05 |
tonyyarusso | talented, security updates to those packages usually hit Ubuntu archives within 24 hours - you need better? | 09:05 |
temporarytao | what .net language exactly? | 09:05 |
songer | powertool08: ok now , authorized_keys id_rsa id_rsa.pub | 09:05 |
hiren | its a framework | 09:05 |
hiren | language is C# | 09:05 |
=== bizarref1sh is now known as leeguy92 |
=== leeguy92 is now known as bizarrefish |
powertool08 | songer: Great, now 'cat id_rsa.pub >> authorized_keys' | 09:06 |
talented | xampp doesn't keep that current | 09:06 |
Night0wl | thanks again powertool08 | 09:06 |
temporarytao | hiren, that should be relatively easy | 09:06 |
powertool08 | Night0wl: np | 09:06 |
nulled | i used to be anti Mono....but maybe it is Ok | 09:06 |
temporarytao | have you tried installing monodev? | 09:06 |
hiren | <temporarytao> i want to deploy it | 09:06 |
henkpoley | hiren ask on irc://irc.gnome.org/mono | 09:06 |
hiren | ok | 09:06 |
temporarytao | nulled, same here. i reread the framework and it seems good. problem is, it has MS in it. :( | 09:07 |
temporarytao | i don't trust those guys a lot | 09:07 |
henkpoley | hiren, that is the officicial mono irc channe; | 09:07 |
temporarytao | hiren, i think you might still need to recompile it for linux | 09:07 |
nulled | temp: as long as nothing 'core' is programmed in C# wewill be OK... | 09:07 |
talented | hmm... is it just me or copying files through nautilus doing drag and drop then closing the windows except the file operations, cancels the copying | 09:07 |
nulled | nope no recompile needed if in Mono | 09:08 |
songer | powertool08: what it must to happen | 09:08 |
tonyyarusso | talented, yeah I noticed that too | 09:08 |
temporarytao | nulled, good to know | 09:08 |
devendra | how to remove 'universal access' icon from right side of top panel, right click is not working in it. | 09:08 |
talented | well, glad I'm not the only one experiencing it then | 09:09 |
powertool08 | songer: The cat command will print out the contents of id_rsa.pub, but the >> redirects it to the file authorized_keys. | 09:09 |
nomnex | I need to know if there is any permission change from 9.04 to 9.10 on usb HD ext4 formatted. On 9.04 it was root:root, when i plug the same hd in a 9.10, their a permission change to local user:local user. | 09:09 |
temporarytao | devendra, try gconf-editor | 09:09 |
temporarytao | look for panel and find it from there | 09:09 |
devendra | tempeldirne, but there are several options. | 09:09 |
devendra | ok | 09:09 |
powertool08 | songer: Now, 'sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart' | 09:09 |
talented | hmm... also transfer speeds are slow | 09:10 |
mkanyicy | powertool08, songer, or 'sudo service sshd restart' | 09:10 |
powertool08 | mkanyicy: Thanks, I knew it changed but wasn't sure on the specifics. | 09:11 |
mkanyicy | powertool08, not actually changed, it's still the same path you specified, 'service' is just a nice script in case you forgot the path | 09:12 |
powertool08 | mkanyicy: Alright. | 09:12 |
nulled | cat $(which service) | 09:13 |
nulled | damn long script just to replace /etc/init.d | 09:13 |
nulled | hhaha | 09:13 |
mobius2 | does anyone know if ndis-wrapper can be used to make a wlan which would normally not work in aircrack "wrap" the native windows driver thus making the adapter in question useable in aircrack? | 09:14 |
songer | powertool08: ok i did 'cat id_rsa.pub >> authorized_keys' and just :~/.ssh$ | 09:14 |
mkanyicy | nulled, it's not about how long is a script,it's about doing what it was supposed to do with minimal or no errors | 09:14 |
Morgoth | hi, there is a driver for my usb key Transcend JetFlash with fingerprint ? The software is only for windows and it's not start with wine... | 09:15 |
powertool08 | songer: Good, did you restart the ssh server with 'sudo service sshd restart'? | 09:15 |
mkanyicy | powertool08, songer what are you guys trying to do? | 09:16 |
powertool08 | mkanyicy: songer wants pubkey authentication on ssh. | 09:16 |
mkanyicy | powertool08, songer is it worth copying the local RSA public key to the local authorized_keys ? | 09:17 |
llutz | powertool08: keyauthenticaton at localhost? | 09:17 |
mkanyicy | powertool08, songer imho, i've never seen that being done before | 09:17 |
llutz | songer: ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub user@remote-system | 09:17 |
powertool08 | mkanyicy: I assumed the local one was the intended remote server in the end. | 09:17 |
songer | powertool08: ok | 09:17 |
=== Morgoth is now known as Azerty82 |
=== Azerty82 is now known as Melkor |
mkanyicy | powertool08, but that would create some confusion, you'd rather scp the public key and 'cat' it and append it to the authorized_keys of the remote server remotely | 09:19 |
songer | powertool08: so now what | 09:19 |
songer | powertool08: it says, ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub user@remote-system | 09:20 |
mkanyicy | llutz, there is now a command called ssh-copy-id ?? wow, let me check | 09:20 |
llutz | mkanyicy: since ages, preferred method to copy ids | 09:20 |
buzzomatic | Hello | 09:20 |
mkanyicy | llutz, ages? | 09:20 |
powertool08 | songer: I guess we find out if my assumption was right :) | 09:20 |

songer | powertool08: it says Restarting OpenBSD Secure Shell server sshd (ok) | 09:23 |
powertool08 | songer: Alright, I recommend using denyhosts. Its a program to detect and prevent(to an extent) brute-force attacks on your server. So 'sudo apt-get install denyhosts' | 09:23 |
powertool08 | songer: Good. | 09:23 |
meowbuntu | i would like to know that | 09:24 |

vargadanis | hello everyone... I have installed kubuntu and the default network manager for some reason screws up the wifi connection. So I am at home and we have an unsecured connection there to which I cannot connect. If I delete the connection from the connection list and then hit connect to other network it works perfect | 09:25 |
vargadanis | but it is tiresome to do every time the laptop boots up | 09:26 |
songer | powertool08: now to exit from :~/.ssh$ what i must to do? | 09:26 |
mkanyicy | buzzomatic, go to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu to enable medibuntu then install those packages i told you about | 09:26 |
powertool08 | songer: After all this is done. You put the id_rsa file on your usb or other computer, the ssh -i /path/to/id_rsa songer@your.computers.ip.address | 09:26 |
casa | #xubuntu | 09:27 |
powertool08 | songer: Type 'exit' or 'logout' or if its in a seperate window, click the X at the top right | 09:27 |

buzzomatic | mkanyicy, I've enabled it, which packages again? | 09:27 |
philipwn | Where is the gnome-volume-control configuration file? | 09:28 |
mkanyicy | buzzomatic, try "sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2 libdvdread4 libdvdnav4 w32codecs" after you have enabled medibuntu repositories | 09:28 |
buzzomatic | Thanks | 09:28 |
mkanyicy | buzzomatic, not that for a comprehensive multimedia playback, you may need to install all gstreamer plugins (the good, the bad and the ugly) | 09:29 |
powertool08 | songer: Also, if you are going to use windows and want to connect back to your computer, you have to use putty (its a free download) If you get the putty key-gen program too, it can convert your linux key to a windows compatible one. | 09:29 |
buzzomatic | mkanyicy, that's always the first thing I do | 09:30 |

buzzomatic | mkanyicy, something odd is going on, the repo is enabled, I've updated, yet the packages are missing | 09:31 |
valajbeg | hi, can someone help me, when i try to upgrade my ubuntu it says "The upgrade is now aborted. The upgrade needs a total of 15.7M free space on disk '/boot'. Please free at least an additional 3,843k of disk space on '/boot'. Empty your trash and remove temporary packages of former installations using 'sudo apt-get clean'." | 09:31 |
nomnex | ouyes, can you check the default permissions? it is root:root on 9.04, the same volume on 9.10 is user:user, do you confirm the change? | 09:31 |
ouyes | nomnex, taken from my lap, (i use a 250gb one instead the 160gb one ,and make the 160gb a usb hard driver | 09:32 |
songer | powertool08: i'm tryn to make update but it says, GPG error: http://ftp.debian.org unstable Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 9AA38DCD55BE302B | 09:32 |
bullgard | valajbeg: Try the command 'apt-get clean'. May be it helps. | 09:32 |
powertool08 | songer: To recap, you probably still need to forward a port on your router before this will work outside your lan. You need to carry the id_rsa file with you, if you're going to be on a windows machine, you need to download putty & putty-gen (it will fit on your usb too) and convert your id_rsa to a putty private key (ppk). Finally, take note of your ip address. | 09:32 |
ouyes | nomnex, what permissions? i only installed 9.10 | 09:32 |
valajbeg | bullgard i triedbut it doesn't help | 09:33 |
valajbeg | bullgard: i triedbut it doesn't help | 09:33 |
mkanyicy | buzzomatic, use synaptic and search for "css" and look for "libdvdcss2" and search "dvdnav" and look for libdvdnav4 and "dvdread" and look for "libdvdread4" | 09:33 |

strywgr | bullguard, I have the windows application on Ubuntu. | 09:33 |
nomnex | ouyes, when you plug the HD what are the default permissions? root:root or user:user? | 09:33 |
ouyes | user | 09:33 |
bullgard | valajbeg: So you need to free disk memory. That is, you need to delete some programs. | 09:33 |

valajbeg | bullgard: http://paste.ubuntu.com/354930/ this is the list of what i have got in /boot part | 09:36 |
buzzomatic | mkanyicy, those exist, except for w32codecs | 09:36 |
vargadanis | iceroot, if you are not root you most likely won't be able to format the disk anyway | 09:37 |
llutz | iceroot: if you are not root, you won't be able to create any fs | 09:37 |
nomnex | ouyes, do you have an usb hd you plug in a usb socket? | 09:37 |
vargadanis | yeah right, just copy what i have said llutz ^_^ | 09:37 |
nomnex | ouyes, formatted as ext4 (not fat32) | 09:37 |

llutz | vargadanis: sry for my slow typing | 09:37 |
bullgard | valajbeg: Ok. And what does gparted say about your /boot partition? | 09:37 |
valajbeg | it has about 18Mb | 09:38 |
nomnex | ouyes, not a system partition, just a HD (usb stick, portable HD) | 09:38 |
valajbeg | 5-6 is free | 09:38 |
bullgard | valajbeg: Ok. And what does gparted say about your /boot partition? | 09:38 |
vargadanis | llutz, nothing, I just find it funny that we wrote almost the same thing word by word :) | 09:38 |
mkanyicy | buzzomatic, but under serious/intensive multimedia playback, you may need to have w32codecs | 09:38 |
llutz | vargadanis: we're spreading truth :) | 09:38 |
ouyes | nomnex, you mean you what to make a ext filesystem on you hd | 09:38 |

ouyes | nomnex, make you hd an ext4 partition and use under you system? | 09:39 |
nomnex | ouyes, to make the story short. I have a USB HD ext4 for backup. On 9.04 /media (auto-mount) permission for the drive is root:root. When I plug the same device in a 9.10 the permissions are user:user. I need to confirm. | 09:39 |
songer | powertool08: so now what i must to do | 09:39 |
songer | to install this public key | 09:40 |
buzzomatic | I'm beginning to think that something is wrong with my install. Is there a tool to automatically repair the apt database? (if that's correct term?) | 09:40 |

After the help from nastas yesterday i now can not even scan the networks... Im great full for any help I can get. | 09:40 |

ouyes | nomnex, just try it | 09:40 |
mkanyicy | buzzomatic, did you do a sudo apt-get update ? | 09:40 |
buzzomatic | mkanyicy, yes, multiple times | 09:41 |
nomnex | ouyes, I have tried it. So, I want to know if this is normal | 09:41 |

buzzomatic | Oh, nevermind, Synaptic locked it | 09:42 |

buzzomatic | Same issue, neither of those packages exist | 09:43 |

powertool08 | songer: Yep. run 'gksudo gedit' It should pop up a password box | 10:06 |
ikonia | ouyes: yes, thats why I said I wonder if the codec is having a problem | 10:06 |
buzzomatic | But I don't think it is actually installed | 10:06 |
vargadanis | xopah, well I don't know it's just an idea | 10:06 |
ouyes | ikonia, smoothly mean you have at least a FPS>=25 | 10:06 |
powertool08 | songer: After you enter your password, a text editor opens. Go down to the last line. | 10:07 |
buzzomatic | I tried a aptitude reinstall and it said: E: I wasn't able to locate file for the libdvdcss2 package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package. | 10:07 |
llutz | buzzomatic: sudo aptitude purge libdvdcss2 -s | 10:07 |
ikonia | ouyes: I'm not arguing what you mean, I'm wondering if the encoding codec is not compatible %100 with the linux x264 codec | 10:07 |
xopah | vargadanis: thank you.. I'll give it a try! | 10:07 |
llutz | buzzomatic: you haven't medipuntu-repo in your sources anymore? | 10:07 |

ikonia | ouyes: can be, doesn't have to be | 10:08 |
sprung | Oasa, ask in there | 10:08 |
powertool08 | songer: It should say "deb http://ftp.debian..... blah blah etc" Put a '#' in front of the deb on that line, then save. | 10:08 |

kadoban | ikonia: http://codepad.org/1iMe68uz | 10:08 |
llutz | buzzomatic: "sudo aptitude update" and then look at "apt-cache policy libdvdcss2" | 10:09 |
Oasa | pkay | 10:09 |
andrew_46 | ouyes: vdpau offloads video processing onto your video card rather than the computer processor | 10:09 |
ikonia | kadoban: look in Etcapache2/mods-enabled is the php5 files there and correctly linked to mods-available | 10:09 |
andrew_46 | ouyes: Commonly used to get decent playback of h264 videos on linux | 10:09 |
buzzomatic | llutz, the repo is missing, trying to reinstall it fails | 10:09 |
ouyes | andrew_46, ah i see | 10:09 |
llutz | buzzomatic: add it again | 10:09 |
ikonia | kadoban: sorry - that should be /etc/apache2/mods-enabled | 10:09 |
songer | powertool08: the text editor it open but it has nothing | 10:10 |
kadoban | ikonia: it looks correct. there's a .load and a .conf, neither link is broken | 10:10 |
buzzomatic | llutz, tried that: http://pastie.org/773374 | 10:10 |
kadoban | (php5.load and php5.conf) | 10:10 |
llutz | buzzomatic: get the key, add it | 10:10 |
ikonia | kadoban: yup, looks good, could you paste the php file's contents then ? | 10:11 |
ikonia | kadoban: (as in a pastebin please) | 10:11 |
powertool08 | songer: Sorry, my fault. Go to File -> Open Then browse to file system (May show up as / ) then /etc then /apt then open the sources.list file. | 10:11 |
ouyes | andrew_46, do i need to install something to make it smooth? | 10:11 |

buzzomatic | llutz, that's what I'm looking at | 10:14 |
andrew_46 | ouyes: and look for the vdpau video output in the smplayer preferences | 10:14 |
buzzomatic | Not sure how to get the key from there | 10:14 |
kadoban | ikonia: oh, shit...apache gives some weird error message when it restarts. didn't notice that before, thought it was just the usual one. i should be able to figure it out from there | 10:14 |
ikonia | kadoban: that all looks simple enough | 10:14 |
ikonia | kadoban: control the language please | 10:14 |
kadoban | oh, sorry | 10:14 |
ouyes | andrew_46, did i use the wrong hardware driver? or the wrong movie player?? | 10:14 |
andrew_46 | ouyes: Although I will admit I am not blessed with a suitable NVidia card | 10:15 |
ikonia | kadoban: do you know what the error means ? | 10:15 |
andrew_46 | ouyes: I suspect you have used the Totem Movie Player | 10:15 |

lvh | resulting in cups not starting | 10:16 |

ouyes | andrew_46, it is impossible , i am using the default player in gnome | 10:16 |
ikonia | kadoban: no problem, well spotted | 10:16 |
sprung | lvh, reduce the times you press enter | 10:16 |

MaxEeePsycho | i've upgraded firefox in 9.04, now wants to load with "firefox-3.5" how do i link anything that still wants to run "firefox" with "firefox-3.5"? "sudo mv /usr/bin/firefox /usr/bin/firefox-old && sudo ln -s /path/to/firefox-3.5 /usr/bin/firefox" didn't do the job, clicking on links outside the browser does nothing (no longer have 3.0.1* installed) | 10:19 |
MaxEeePsycho | sorry for the long post... | 10:19 |
lvh | fine, on one line: having this issue on karmic: "Warning: Fake start-stop-daemon called, doing nothing", happens whenever I start/restart the cups service. cups daemon is not running, meaning I can't print. Googling suggested downgrading upstart to 0.6.3-10 from 0.6.3-11, which didn't work, or manually starting the service, which didn't work. neither changes the problem, i get the same error. | 10:19 |
vvvvv | i know abt linx, but tell me in a short way to install into my machine | 10:19 |
sprung | vvvvv, ok, follow what everyone else has been telling you. | 10:20 |

vvvvv | will get back to u ,if any issues. | 10:21 |
sprung | you do that. | 10:21 |
powertool08 | songer: I don't understand where that came from, but I really need to get to sleep, its 4:15 am here. So, once you have your sources.list file open, go to the last line, put '#' in front of 'deb', then save and exit. Then go back to the command line and run 'sudo apt-get update' if you still get the error, run 'sudo apt-get -f update' *Note the added '-f'. If it still doesn't work, ask the channel in general and hopefully somebody can help you. Good lu | 10:22 |

joaopinto | ikonia, no, it's not, the link on getdeb is calling apturl, which does an apt-get upgrate which cause the error, the error is not related to the site | 10:45 |

bjlen | hi when removing old linux kernels, should i be using the 'remove' or 'comletely remove' option in synaptic package manager (ubuntu 9.10)? | 10:51 |
Oasa | If i restart will things be same ? | 10:52 |
reactor | Oasa, yh | 10:52 |
sortremord | bjlen, why do you need to remove the older kernel versions? | 10:52 |
sortremord | bjlen, I would keep them just in case a newer kernel gave me any problems, a kernel panic or something like that | 10:53 |
Darkedge | bjlen: It shouldn't make any diffrence, I suggest Completly remove.. | 10:53 |
MASARUwota | sortremord: =) | 10:53 |
Darkedge | yeah, listen to sortremord | 10:53 |
bjlen | i would keep at least one, but i had 5 or 6 | 10:53 |
Myrtti | sortremord: after a new kernel has proven to work, I take all but the previous and remove them... | 10:53 |
bjlen | Myrtti how do you remove them? | 10:54 |
sortremord | Myrtti, that sounds good | 10:54 |
bullgard | After installing Ubuntu from the Ubuntu 9.10 Desktop Edition CD, Text in GNOME programs ignore the modifier key 'AltGr'. How to fix this? | 10:55 |
smellyno1er | Hi - This bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/446146?comments=all was supposedly fixed, but I've installed a daily kernel 2.6.33-999-generic and I'm still affected by it | 10:55 |
vvvvv | snd me a text file like for using bsd commands | 10:55 |
smellyno1er | What do I need to do to get rid of that bug? | 10:55 |
MASARUwota | vvvvv: please try googling, i cannot send you 1 thing as the interent is filled with it. also, LINUX IS NOT BSD | 10:56 |
MASARUwota | *internet | 10:56 |
sortremord | vvvvv, joing #bsd for that | 10:56 |
Myrtti | bjlen: hm, let me check | 10:56 |
slumber | is it possible to install micrisoft framework on ubuntu linux? | 10:56 |
sortremord | join* | 10:56 |
cweagans | slumber: microsoft framework? | 10:57 |
sortremord | slumber, you might be able to install it in Wine via Wine-Doors | 10:57 |
bjlen | is it normal for ubuntu 9.10 to run at 40-80% CPU all the time (i currently have Xchat, firefox and system monitor open on a 1ghz laptop with intell 855GM and 1GB ram)? | 10:58 |
slumber | sortrmod : tks | 10:58 |
Steel__ | MASARUwota: Thank you very much ! | 10:58 |
MASARUwota | Steel__:np | 10:58 |
slumber | bjlen : it happent to me, but it seems a bug | 10:58 |
Myrtti | bjlen: firefox is a hog | 10:58 |
MASARUwota | slumber: .NET? you should install the "mono" package. you can run .net programmed apps in the following fashion: mono <application.exe> | 10:59 |
Myrtti | bjlen: complete removal in synaptic or --purge in aptitude. | 11:00 |
slumber | masaruwota: thanks | 11:00 |
bjlen | myrtti - thanks. i think i removed some old kernels with just 'remove' - does that matter? i'm wondering whether there are some config files i now need to manually delete? | 11:00 |
Slart | bjlen: it might be a good thing.. ie if the cpu is downclocked so that firefox and xchat uses about 50% of the available cpu | 11:01 |
philipwn | how can i see how much HZ is my kernel set to run | 11:01 |
bjlen | slart - i don't understand... | 11:01 |
Slart | bjlen: it might also be that firefox is eating lots of cpu cycles while the cpu is running full speed.. that would be a bad thing | 11:01 |
Myrtti | bjlen: it's all up to your personal preference. I wouldn't worry about the possible config file residue left by kernels, grub is anyway cleaned after uninstalling the kernel images | 11:02 |
Oasa | Restarting didnt work out. I had to add everything manually :( | 11:02 |
bjlen | at least, having closed firefox i can see the cpu is now running 10 -40% with ocassional spikes. so i guess that's ok | 11:02 |
Oasa | Guys. I actually came here to know if there is any way to make myself login to Windows lIve Messenger through pidgin | 11:02 |
Oasa | I configured but it says Protocol Problems | 11:03 |
Slart | bjlen: say you have a cpu that is marked for 2.5 GHz.. if your laptop goes into powersaving mode it might be downclocked to 400MHz instead.. then firefox will use 20% of the lower speed which seems much but in reality it isn't that much since the cpu is going much slower than normal | 11:03 |
bjlen | how would i know if it was downclocked? | 11:03 |
Slart | bjlen: there are some apps that might show you the current power saving state.. I haven't used those since I upgraded to 9.10 though so I can't help you with specifics | 11:04 |
mobius2 | I suspect that I am unable to see the range value of the various AP's around me in aircrack because I have a separate wlan which is also in use and I am assuming there is a program which handles this type of thing | 11:04 |
Oasa | Hello... does any one know how to fix that? | 11:04 |
mobius2 | my question is not aircrack related but it is wifi related | 11:04 |
xover | i am getting a keyt reading error when trying to mount my encrpyted partition from the live cd! | 11:05 |
mobius2 | what kind of crypto partition | 11:05 |
xover | luks | 11:05 |
novhy | emmmm dingin | 11:06 |
xover | mobius2, what types are there? I created it using the intaller | 11:06 |
DJones | Oasa: Pidgin normally doesn't have a problem connecting to windows live messenger, I'm using it at the minute so if you're getting an error, it could be a service problem at the windows end | 11:06 |
Oasa | Djones : Not just once. But always. | 11:06 |
Oasa | I am using 8.04 LTS | 11:06 |
mobius2 | xover I suppose I should ask you what program you used to generate the ecrypted partition | 11:06 |
xover | mobius2, the ubuntu installer | 11:07 |
mobius2 | kk | 11:07 |
DJones | Oasa: Have you changed any settings or just used the default ones for MSN? | 11:07 |
Oasa | THe Default ones | 11:07 |
xover | I installed windows and now i cant boot any OS, so I wanted to reinstall grub, but its not playing ball. | 11:07 |
mobius2 | xover and how are you introducing the key? | 11:08 |
Oasa | Djones : it says our protocol is not supported by server | 11:08 |
xover | mobius2, using cryptsetup create | 11:08 |
what | anyone got creative x-fi sound card working? | 11:08 |
xover | mobius2, i installed ubuntu with encryption, tjen installed windows, no i cannot boot to either without a boot cd. | 11:10 |
DJones | Oasa: I've not had a problem with pidgin and I'm using later versions of pidgin, possibly there's been a change to the proctol that pidgin & MSN use since your version, what version are you using? | 11:10 |
Oasa | I am using default pidgin that comes with 8.04 | 11:10 |
Oasa | LT | 11:10 |
Oasa | S | 11:10 |
nubuntu | ололо | 11:11 |
DJones | Oasa: Can you go into Help & About in the pidgin contact list to check which version number you're using | 11:11 |
mobius2 | I would install partition magic to the windows instance and try to move the windows further down the loader chain that way | 11:11 |
mobius2 | you are going to fix this from windows | 11:11 |
mobius2 | or reinstall ubuntu AFTER windows | 11:12 |
smellyno1er | I love the way she shakes those hips | 11:12 |
Oasa | 2.4.1 | 11:12 |
songer | enyone can helpme i want to install acetoneiso from geddeb page but i'm getting this Can not install 'acetoneiso' (E:Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages | 11:12 |
Oasa | Djones can you give the information on the second page (advanced) of MSN please | 11:13 |
DJones | Oasa: Just looking at pidgin's website, they say that its a common error with older versions of pidgin, I would guess that you need to upgrade to a later version | 11:13 |
DJones | Oasa: Give me a sec to have a look | 11:13 |
mumintrollet | hey! trying to install ubuntu server 9.10 386 from a usb drive using unebootin to extract the iso. when i start the installation the instruction does not seem to apply. | 11:13 |
mumintrollet | "On Ubuntu 9.10 server edition the install menu will be shown right after reboot. Chose "Help" and then press F6. At the boot prompt type "install cdrom-detect/try-usb=true" and hit enter." | 11:13 |
mumintrollet | Help goes to the usual installation.. and I can't use the shell there for "install" | 11:13 |
Oasa | I have marked for upgrade. Will that do it ? | 11:14 |
mobius2 | xover windows partition | 11:14 |

DJones | Oasa: On the advanced tab, I've got server as messenger.hotmail.com and port as 1863 but thats using version 2.5.5 that comes with Intrepid | 11:15 |
Oasa | What is interpid? | 11:16 |
Oasa | I marked for upgrade will that work? | 11:16 |
Myrtti | Oasa: the version of ubuntu after yours | 11:17 |
kraut | ?intrepid | 11:17 |
kraut | hmm | 11:17 |
DJones | Oasa: Should have said Intrepid, its a newer version of Ubuntu | 11:17 |
kraut | !intrepid | 11:17 |
ubottu | Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex) was the ninth release of Ubuntu. Downloading: http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.10/ - Release Notes: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/810 | 11:17 |
Oasa | okay... the codename. | 11:17 |
kraut | !intrepid | Oasa | 11:17 |
Oasa | ylike hardy. | 11:17 |
ubottu | Oasa: please see above | 11:17 |
Oasa | i understood | 11:17 |
xover | mobius2, how do i get grub back into the MBR? | 11:17 |
DJones | Oasa: Looking at the repositories for 8.04, you're using the latest version of pidgin available | 11:17 |
vikb | I am not able to install pidgin | 11:17 |
Oasa | I am not familiar with the Names but only version. | 11:17 |
frederick85 | Hi i had to start my computer in vesa graphics because it wouldn't start in sis graphics, how can I figure out what is my problem? | 11:17 |
vikb | even after doing what is said in http://www.pidgin.im/download/ubuntu/ | 11:18 |
Oasa | !repositories | Oasa | 11:18 |
ubottu | Oasa, please see my private message | 11:18 |
mobius2 | insert windows installation disk and boot to the FIRST R repair console rebuild the MBR and the boot loader | 11:18 |
xover | mobius2, I ran grub-instal /dev/sda and it throws an error 'auto detection of filesystem failed' | 11:18 |
Oasa | What is repositories ? | 11:18 |
xover | mobius2, I need grub to boot into linux dont? | 11:18 |
vikb | I am not getting the pidgin package in my repos at all | 11:18 |
mobius2 | if you do not write ubuntu to the sequence at all the windows should boot by default | 11:18 |
mobius2 | unless you insert your boot cd | 11:18 |
mobius2 | am i right? | 11:18 |
xover | mobius2, at the moment I receive 'no operating system is found' | 11:19 |
mobius2 | boot to the WINDOWS install cd | 11:19 |
xover | mobius2, appears the MBR is screwed, so im better off install grub to MBR again righT? | 11:19 |
xover | mobius2, can you jsut explained why I am better of installed windows MBR? | 11:19 |
mobius2 | because windows sucks and it only like itself | 11:20 |
xover | mobius2, that rubbish i always use grub for booting windows. | 11:20 |
mobius2 | better to not include ubuntu at all in the boot loader | 11:20 |
DJones | Oasa: I'm just looking to see if there's an easy fix for you, the only one I've found so far is to add pidgin's own repository which will update your version | 11:20 |
mobius2 | with full disk encryption? | 11:20 |
padi999 | hey guys | 11:21 |
Junkyard | I am not getting the pidgin packages in my repository | 11:21 |
mobius2 | the whole point of full disk crypto is to make the instance the least accessible as possible | 11:21 |
Junkyard | after adding them from the pidgin website | 11:21 |
padi999 | Can someone check if this is a firefox 3.5.7 problem? -> www.google.com/analytics -> there is no login form, it just does not display. This worked in former versions of firefox | 11:22 |
mobius2 | why put an instance under full disk crypto in the loader? | 11:22 |
mobius2 | make it look like a windows rig | 11:22 |
xover | mobius2, it was full disk, but then i imaged it and deployed it on another disk not using he entire disk so its not FD. | 11:22 |
xover | also FD is never FD as the boot partition is not encrypted | 11:22 |
mobius2 | yuk :) | 11:23 |
soopos | How can you delete everything which a regexp match in Emacs? | 11:23 |
Oasa | any one here from India? or UAE ? | 11:23 |
xover | mobius2, im not really getting you | 11:24 |
