[00:00] <lord_hypnos> hey i guess i messed up the superblock of my externel drive how do i fix it?
[00:00] <donny> hi all, what gstreamer plugins package has mp3?
[00:00] <undecim> xubuntu: Are you using KDE then?
[00:01] <vallhalla81> !life
[00:01] <Jarxes> undecim: ok, it almost worked out. Now I at least get the grub menu, which means the grub got installed correctly, but when I try to run any kernel it says error: file not found also when I pick my WinXp boot the whole thing freezes and I have to restart.
[00:01] <xubuntu> hmm dont think so gnome
[00:02] <lord_hypnos> hey i guess i messed up the superblock of my externel drive how do i fix it?
[00:02] <xubuntu> not sure tho
[00:02] <nighteagle> Hi
[00:03] <nighteagle> How can i change the font size, on empathy chat window?
[00:03] <undecim> Jarxes: Try booting to the Live CD and chrooting to your hard drive. From there you can run "sudo update-grub" and that should fix your config file.
[00:03] <undecim> Jarxes: Let me find a link to a simple chroot tutorial...
[00:03] <Jarxes> undecim: ok, trying...
[00:03] <xubuntu> undesim: not sure
[00:03] <Jarxes> undecim: ok, waiting...
[00:03] <DevilsArms> Evening all.
[00:03] <greg__> would this be an appropriate forum to ask a question about transmission in ubuntu?
[00:04] <DevilsArms> Got what I would call an complex question involving X11
[00:04] <br0kenarr0w> greg__, #transmission
[00:05] <DevilsArms> I'm attempting to set the Modeline's but i'm a tad lost on what I need to do
[00:05] <git__> ACPI was causing a lot of the problem i've experienced when trying to copy large data sets to USB hard drive
[00:05] <git__> every so often, my laptop would just freeze
[00:05] <nighteagle> and for Empathy, is there a specific irc?
[00:06] <DevilsArms> My TV doesn't support 1:1 HDMI so i'm having to use Modelines on my Nvidia ION but not sure what I need to set where etc.
[00:06] <xubuntu> i gettin my shared folder to my mac pro also
[00:06] <nighteagle> i just want to know how to change the font size, in the chat window
[00:06] <Pelo> nighteagle, xchat ? check in settings, under pref , somewhere in there
[00:07] <frenzy_usa> Anyone using QuickBooks Pro 2009 in VirtualBox?
[00:07] <nighteagle> Pelo, no, Empathy
[00:07] <Pelo> nighteagle, checking in the prefs is still a good idea, nut sure where they are located however
[00:08] <initmass> How do I install Koffice 2 or Krita 2 in Ubuntu 9.10?
[00:08] <nighteagle> Pelo, i searched, but not found, thank you for the answer
[00:08] <greg__> has anyone set up the web interface for transmission i cant get it to work
[00:08] <undecim> Jarxes: Okay, couldn't find a simple one like i was looking for, so I typed up one real quick: http://paste.ubuntu.com/355259/
[00:08] <nighteagle> initmass, Ubuntu or Kubuntu?
[00:08] <yeason> greg__: what's it doing?
[00:09] <greg__> yeason its asking me to authinticate.. i dont want to
[00:09] <initmass> nighteagle, I'm using Ubuntu
[00:09] <Pelo> nighteagle, try this,  check in your /home folder for a hiden folder for empathy,  look for a .conf file , you might be able to change it in there
[00:09] <nighteagle> initmass, what's the version in the repositories?
[00:09] <yeason> greg__: when you set it up did you uncheck "use authentication"?
[00:10] <greg__> yes
[00:10] <nighteagle> Pelo, thank you very much, i'm going to try this
[00:11] <greg__> yeason it says the server localhost:90991 at Transmission requires a username and password.
[00:11] <initmass> nighteagle, Version: 1:1.6.3-7ubuntu10
[00:11] <Goliath>  is anyone member of theplace.bz?
[00:12] <initmass> nighteagle, version 2 is out since long ago
[00:12] <undecim> initmass: take a look at http://www.kubuntu.org/news/koffice-2
[00:12] <nighteagle> initmass, i think that the better to do, is to wait that they'll be available, on the repo.
[00:12] <yeason> greg__: I understand, I'm trying to think of what might be causing the problem and what you can do to fix it. When you connect have you tried using 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost, I've seen this make or break some things
[00:13] <initmass> undecim, I've been there but it seems like it's the whole Koffice suite. I only want Krita 2
[00:13] <greg__> yeason ill try that real quick
[00:13] <initmass> nighteagle, feels pity when it's out
[00:14] <ae86-drifter> anyone know why ssh is fine, very responsive, but sshfs is lagging badly, this is over WAN
[00:14] <Jarxes> undecim: thanks a lot for the hassle. can you tell me what is the /mnt/ folder? when I open nautilus and go to root it doesn't display the folder, I have to type it in to get in or get there from terminal. It's just me being inquisitive....
[00:14] <greg__> yeason it still asks for localhost
[00:14] <greg__> or says localhost rather
[00:14] <undecim> Jarxes: The mnt folder is just a general place for the user to mount media manually.
[00:14] <TheMozart> is Ubuntu 10.4 out yet?
[00:15] <Pici> TheMozart: Since its not April yet. no.
[00:15] <Pici> TheMozart: The Ubuntu release numbers are YEAR.MONTH
[00:15] <TheMozart> Pici: so in April 2010?
[00:15] <ae86-drifter> TheMozart, omg uleh log into the website
[00:15] <TheMozart> Pici: wow, I didnt know that or realise that.. thanks
[00:15] <git__> 30 min to tar a 15.7GB filesystem
[00:15] <TheMozart> ae86-drifter: chill dude... only asking.
[00:16] <git__> does that sound about right?
[00:16] <yeason> greg__: ok, so you've tried both "http://127.0.0.1:9091" and "http://localhost:9091"
[00:16] <Jarxes> undecim: sure thanks (p.s. correction: I can see it from nautilus now. I don't know why I couldn't before)
[00:16]  * lwieise87 is away: Gone away for now‎
[00:16] <hari_> hi
[00:16] <jrib> !away > lwieise87
[00:16] <hari_> i have  PROBLEM
[00:16] <genii> git__: That actually sounds fast
[00:16] <greg__> yeason i did.. ill try again
[00:16] <undecim> Jarxes: Usually, on a real system (i.e. not a livecd), there will be subfolders inside of /mnt/ if you mount media manually a lot, but since it's not really used by anything else, it's really convenient to just use directly when you need a quick chroot. I think the Ubuntu installer even uses it to mount the drive it is installing to.
[00:16] <ae86-drifter> hari_, i have probrem too we all have a probrem
[00:16] <git__> genii, i didn't do any compression
[00:16] <Richturd> can someone help me to get my computer to work?
[00:17] <Richturd> I am trying to get my built in Webcam to work with my netbook remix
[00:17] <DevilsArms> I ***ing hate overscan and X11
[00:17] <git__> i think ACPI is the culprit for my Ubuntu 9.10 on nw8440 to crash when i put it in suspend mode or when i leave my laptop on for a lengthy backup
[00:17] <yeason> greg__: ok, just double checking that you'd given both a shot. I'm not sure that it will do much but I'd try enabling it, see if you can connect at all using the username and password you enter. If that works try disabling it again and see if it works then. If not try restarting the program.
[00:17] <DBCOOPA> how do you compile alsamixer
[00:17] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> Yo. My server ran out of diskspace, and then strange stuff started to happen. I think it got into some read only mode or something becuase I could not do anything. I couldn't connect via ftp or any other mean. Not even connect via putty. However I already had putty connected from before it got full and I tried to send a reboot command. Then it wend down and didn't start up. When I try to log...
[00:17] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> ...in on the machine I get this message: "cannot execute /bin/bash permission denied". What can I do?
[00:18] <Loq844> Hello
[00:18] <Pelo> Richturd, you might have better luck looking up your netbook model in www.ubuntuforums.org
[00:18] <undecim> initmass: Try krita-kde4
[00:18]  * MrDudle brb
[00:18] <Jarxes> undecim: understood, thanks
[00:19] <xubuntu> is it realy need for install all updates one xubuntu_
[00:19] <Pelo> later folks
[00:19] <sam9> I am trying to dual boot ubuntu with win7 on 2 seperat SATA drives. Does it matter which SATA port i plug the drives in?
[00:19] <MarkStoddart> sam9 what RAID?
[00:20] <sam9> Mark: No raid just normal setup
[00:20] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: If you can get a keyboard and monitor on your server, you can use a livecd to make some space on the hard drive.
[00:20] <TheMozart> Pici: thanks for that.
[00:20] <MarkStoddart> sam9: No, note that you'll need to reinstall grub though (unless they changed this in windows 7)
[00:20] <initmass> undecim, i'll try that. thank you
[00:21] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: yeah, I am at it right now with a keyb and monitor, but making space wont help because I already did that when the problem first arose before I tried the reboot command
[00:21] <Hilikus> where am i supposed to configure samba so that every update doesnt complain about my smb.conf having local changes? it's really annoying. i want to disable everything in [printers], use user authentication, etc, but every change i made creates a problem in the update where the installer wants to revert it to a dist version
[00:21] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: You are using a LiveCD right now?
[00:21] <sam9> Mark: Thanks. I will try that. Because I already had win7 installed so I installed linux on its own SATA drive. But the only way i can get it to boot is what ever drive is plugged into SATA port 0
[00:21] <funkycat90210> vmware player is complaining that it cannot find the kernel headers, I've tried everything, how can I get the kernel headers it likes?
[00:22] <MarkStoddart> sam9 this is because of the windows boot loader ignores linux operating systems
[00:22] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: No, I just booted it up normally and got to the login prompt. I am not sure I have a live CD arount atm
[00:22] <MarkStoddart> install grub on the windows machine to see both when both harddrives are connected.
[00:23] <sam9> Mark: thanks will try that now. Appreciate  your help
[00:23] <undecim> Well, if you can't get a LiveCD, you can alway boot into recovery mode. Since 5% of the hard drive space is reserved to the root user (in case stuff like this happens), you should be able to log in there and make space.
[00:23] <funkycat90210> how do i generate the linux-headers-x.y.z-generic dir?
[00:23] <MarkStoddart> no problem. All part of the community :)
[00:23] <Jarxes> undecim: by "First, mount root to /mnt/" do you mean "sudo mount /dev/sdb5 /mnt" in my case?
[00:23] <MarkStoddart> funkycat90210 you mean uname -a?
[00:23] <cg> Has anyone managed to get line-in going for an onboard sound card, to play straight through speakers without a delay? tried pulseaudio's loopback module but it has a 1-2 second delay :(  thanks.
[00:23] <undecim> Jarxes: Yes.
[00:23] <MarkStoddart> linux-headers-`uname -a`
[00:24] <sulio> Is there a good ebook reader for Ubuntu?
[00:24] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: Okay, I will try that, but I am pretty sure i freed up like 2 gig when before I sent the reboot command. ARe you sure it will help?
[00:24] <TheMozart> Pici: have you always know that?
[00:24] <funkycat90210> MarkStoddart, i mean generate the directory /usr/src/linux-headers-*
[00:24] <undecim> Jarxes: and if you have any other partitions separated, you may need to mount those too.
[00:24] <Pici> TheMozart: About the version numbers? For quite a long time.  But don't worry, we get the question a lot.
[00:24] <funkycat90210> err nvm i figured it out
[00:24] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: How did you free up 2GB?
[00:24] <hari_> I know how to solve a problem with my printer. when commanded to print the printing stopped, tried again and then I saw a message saying "CUPS server error"
[00:24] <MarkStoddart> ok :)
[00:24] <TheMozart> Pici:  yeah
[00:25] <MarkStoddart> sulio, pdf ebooks?
[00:25] <TheMozart> Pici: what color is my text on screen? Can you see what I type?
[00:25] <MarkStoddart> sulio, whats wrong with evince?
[00:25] <Jarxes> undecim: what do you mean by "other partitions separated"?
[00:25] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: I had the putty shell connected while it ran out of space and then before I tried the reboot command I deleted some stuff.
[00:25] <Pici> TheMozart: If you use my nick its hilighted for me.
[00:25] <sulio> MarkStoddart The ebook that I want to read is only sold in Palm form, Mobi form and ePub form
[00:25] <ckw> Anyone able to help debug a crash?
[00:25] <TheMozart> p i ci what color is my text on screen when I am not typing to you?

[00:28] <hari_> anyone can help me
[00:28] <Hilikus> surely anyone with a samba server and a single modification to /etc/samba/smb.conf must suffer of this problem
[00:28] <MarkStoddart> hari_, restart cups /etc/init.d/cups restart
[00:28] <dr_willis> Hilikus,  i think terhes a way to do that - but ive only seen a few samba updates that update the default configs. so i dont find it an annoyance
[00:29] <hari_> ok thanks
[00:29] <Hilikus> dr_willis: really? didn't you get one recently? probably today
[00:29] <MarkStoddart> kevstiles4, BACKUP FIRST but try modifying your X11 manually /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[00:29] <ae86-drifter> anyone know why ssh is fine, very responsive, but sshfs is lagging badly, this is over WAN
[00:29] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: Not if you rebooted. But running out of hard drive space can cause you to lose some data. I had to reconfigure a lot of my applications when I let my home directory fill up.
[00:30] <dr_willis> Hilikus,  yes - and thats the first one ive seen since release... so one every 2 mo. isent a big annoyance
[00:30] <ckw> MarkStoddart, Any ideas? http://pastebin.ca/1747629
[00:30] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: I see. Maybe something like that is the problem then. Do you have any idea on how I can find out where the problem is?

[00:42] <doufer> anymore
[00:42] <doufer> ??
[00:42] <mcphail> Ostlian_Bryffelk: look at the mount point options in /etc/fstab first
[00:43] <doufer> ubuntu doesnt rely on xorg.conf anymore?
[00:43] <undecim> mcphail: would the mount options for the root partition be changed in response to the root partition running out of space?
[00:43] <undecim> doufer: Everything is handled by HAL now.
[00:43] <doufer> HAL is replacing xorg.conf
[00:43] <doufer> ?

[00:44] <Jarxes> arched on the net how to accomplish my goal. I deleted/partitioned the ntfs into two ext4, copied my whole /usr to the smaller (40GB) new ext4 from LiveCD (I couldn't do the same with /home cause I encrypted it during Ubuntu install), edited the fstab to point to the new location of /usr, restarted and that's the moment when the grub got broken. So now, that I have /usr copied to the new partition can I simply point to it inst
[00:44] <Jarxes> ead leaving it where it was using "sudo mount /dev/sdb7/usr /mnt"?
[00:44] <doufer> stop!
[00:44] <FloodBot1> Jarxes: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:44] <doufer> pastebin
[00:44] <mcphail> undecim: no - it shouldn't directly
[00:44] <doufer> i m wondering if its possible to install livecd on hdd
[00:44] <doufer> ?
[00:44] <doufer> i mean
[00:45] <doufer> boot livecd on hdd and everything would be discarded after reboot
[00:45] <git__> doufer, it's possible
[00:45] <Jarxes> undecim: did you get my long message from a moment ago or was it blocked?
[00:45] <hari_> httpConnectionEncrypt failed».
[00:45] <DBCOOPA> how do you compile alsamixer? i have no sound on recent installation of koala.
[00:45] <hari_> There was an error during operation
[00:45] <doufer> git how?
[00:45] <doufer> i m working on a thin client project
[00:45] <doufer> i m being asked to make a read only linux OS
[00:46] <hari_> help help!!!!
[00:46] <hari_> this persists
[00:46] <Pici> !enter
[00:46] <undecim> Jarxes: Yeah, changing just the /dev/sdXY part in fstab should make ubuntu use the new partition.
[00:46] <tripzero> what's the normal reason that usplash would drop out early into a text console during boot?
[00:47] <agony> Does anyone know a good editor for python?
[00:48] <tripzero> agony: emacs
[00:48] <eric_3> hey, i have a problem, my computer, every time i boot up it searches for a USB drive and i have to hit f12 to have it boot normaly. i can not get into the BIOS because it is locked with a 6 char password. Any ideas of what to do? Oh and can i download and amd x64 archetecture CD and still run it on intel 86x?
[00:48] <Jarxes> undecim: so in other words something went wrong while partitioning I guess.
[00:48] <doufer> sooo xorg.conf is being replaced by HAL?
[00:48] <tripzero> doufer: X will still use xorg.conf if it's there
[00:48] <tripzero> but it tries to rely more on detection rather than a config if it can
[00:48] <doufer> ohh i see
[00:49] <doufer> ok go to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomizationFromScratch
[00:49] <doufer> look for Create manifest
[00:49] <doufer> that doesnt look right
[00:49] <tripzero> eric_3: reset the bios.  and no you can't run a 64bit OS on a 32bit CPU
[00:49] <undecim> Jarxes: I don't think anything went wrong. Grub doesn't read fstab. Grub just reads its config file from the partition it's told to read it from.
[00:49] <eric_3> thanks! doufer
[00:49] <doufer> create manifest doesnt look right to me
[00:49] <eric_3> thanks tripezero and how do i reset the bios?
[00:50] <tripzero> eric_3: a jumper on your mobo.
[00:50] <Jarxes> undecim: should I use "sudo mount /dev/sdb7/usr /mnt" or rather simply "sudo mount /dev/sdb7 /mnt" to mount the new /usr?
[00:50] <DBCOOPA> I downloaded 9.10 a few days ago. I haven't been able to get sound from my computer since. I have ALSAMIXER 1.0.20 installed. Any advice?
[00:50] <eric_3> k and how would i locate that?
[00:50] <tripzero> doufer: it may not be right.  I think i had to modify that script slightly to get it to work...
[00:50] <doufer> can u send me the correct script?
[00:51] <agony> does emacs have graphic user interface?
[00:51] <doufer> opps the modified script
[00:51] <Night0wl> does anyone use guake? (i know i might be asking in the wrong place)  I can't seem to find an option to keep it loading on the bottom of the screen- it randomly will be top or bottom
[00:51] <hari_> heeeeeeelp!!!!
[00:51] <Pici> !patience
[00:52] <eric_3> will reseting the bios also change the boot order back to HDD?
[00:52] <annodomini> I'm having a problem where my network (wireless) stops working after about a minute. I see a line in the syslog from wpa_supplicant about CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-RESULTS, so I suspect it may be a variation of this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/460886
[00:52] <undecim> Jarxes: Oh, you are still trying to chroot? If /dev/sdb7 is the partition which has your /usr/ files, you need to mount it with "sudo mount /dev/sdb7 /mnt/usr"
[00:52] <tripzero> eric_3: probably
[00:52] <hari_> There was an error during operation «httpConnectionEncrypt failed».
[00:52] <annodomini> There's a suggested line to add to wpa_supplicant.conf, but I don't find such a file in /etc
[00:52] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> mcphail: Hmm, it doesn't seem to be mounted as noexec
[00:52] <eric_3> but where would i find the jumper
[00:52] <Pici> DBCOOPA: I'm not good at diagnosing sound problems, but have you seen the sound information from ubottu ?
[00:52] <hari_> is the cups error
[00:53] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> mcphail: in fstab I see nothing at least
[00:53] <tripzero> doufer: http://linuxice.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/linuxice/build/1b-prepare-casper?revision=134&view=markup
[00:53] <DBCOOPA> NO. Where is it?
[00:53] <Jarxes> undecim: that's what I wanted to know. thanks again.

[00:53] <KindOne> geitenneuker, worf joined #debian, 3wks 4days 15hrs 53mins 38secs ago.
[00:53] <DBCOOPA> DId I miss something?
[00:53] <annodomini> Should I just create it, with that line, or is Ubuntu's wpa_supplicant picking up configuration from somewhere else?

[00:53] <hari_> that's mention a while ago
[00:54] <DBCOOPA> gotcha
[00:54] <hari_> please
[00:54] <eric_3> Is there anything i should worry about when reseting the bios
[00:54] <DBCOOPA> thank you.
[00:54] <hari_> help me
[00:54] <tripzero> doufer: that code may be exactly the same as the wiki, which works.  if not, i expect you to update the wiki now ;)
[00:54] <doufer> thanks
[00:54] <doufer> its gonna be my first time to make a live cd off an existing installation
[00:54] <doufer> wish me a good luck
[00:54] <tripzero> eric_3: you may have to set the time clock and cpu settings again
[00:55] <eric_3> tripzero: is there a way to locate the jumper?
[00:55] <tripzero> eric_3: your motherboard manual
[00:55] <tripzero> eric_3: its usually near the bios battery
[00:55] <tripzero> eric_3: but not always
[00:55] <eric_3> I don't have the MB manual, i am sorry to say this.
[00:55] <melvincv> which is the best backup and restore program?
[00:55] <Pici> hari_: What version of Ubuntu are you running?
[00:56] <eric_3> Since the bios is locked i cant tell what kind of MB it is ether
[00:56] <hari_> ubuntu karmic
[00:56] <git__> melvincv, tar
[00:57] <Slix_> Gah. I need zlib and libbz2.
[00:57] <Trizicus> How can set the length of gnome desktop icon text. I ask because they like to overla
[00:57] <toastedmilk> Can anyone help with samba or direct me somewhere to find help on it?

[00:57] <eric_3> try #somba
[00:57] <fsjal> hey guys, i am migrating to v. 9.10 tomorrow from W7, what should i know before installing Karmic Coala ? i have played with it a few times
[00:57] <eric_3> sorry #samba
[00:58] <melvincv> not an archiving utility, an imaging utility to take a image of my root partition, with a boot cd to restore the partition...
[00:58] <eric_3> it is just a guess though
[00:58] <shamike> my son has a g3 imac what version of Ubuntu will work for him?
[00:58] <melvincv> i need a utility similar to norton ghost for linux
[00:58] <Slix_> How do I get zlib and libbz2?
[00:58] <toastedmilk> melvincv, what for?
[00:59] <Trizicus> How can set the length of gnome desktop icon text. I ask because they like to overla
[00:59] <toastedmilk> shamike, take the specs to ubuntu.com and check it out
[00:59] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> Is there a way to check info about mounted partitions? I need to see info about my problem that no users have access to /bin/bash
[00:59] <shamike> ok
[00:59] <toastedmilk> Ostlian_Bryffelk, try using root.
[00:59] <melvincv> taking a image of my root partition, in case it gets corrupt...
[00:59] <eric_3> bye
[00:59] <toastedmilk> melvincv, just make a backup
[01:00] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> toastedmilk: Yeah, I got into bash as root in recoverymode but I don't know how to fix the problem from there.
[01:00] <zioplaslt> would anybody like to help me load my ubuntu again? I deleted python2.6 package with all dependencies, and after reinstalling my machine starts booting but never reaches login screen..
[01:00] <Pici> hari_: please run the following command: sudo cp /etc/cups/cupsd.conf.O /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
[01:00] <dullard> Ostlian_Bryffelk, cat /etc/mtab
[01:00] <toastedmilk> zioplaslt, use aptitude
[01:00] <main> #linuxac
[01:01] <dbugger> Hello fellas
[01:01] <zioplaslt> i used the recovery option and through aptitude updated all the packages, downloaded the rest
[01:01] <zioplaslt> but that didnt help..
[01:01] <melvincv> backup, which program? tar is just an archiver, right?
[01:01] <toastedmilk> zioplaslt, synaptic?
[01:01] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: To get info on currently mounted partitions, try "mount"
[01:02] <melvincv> toasted milk: backup, which program?
[01:02] <chasedawg1> rhythmBox help....
[01:02] <Jarxes> undecim: ok, I got some "bash: groups: command not found" but other than that I'm on "root@ubuntu:/#". Now what? Will it run properly it I simply restart the machine now or do I need to run the "grub-update", or something else?
[01:02] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> dullard, undecim: Hmm, proc, /sys, varrun and varlock has "noexec". Is that good?
[01:02] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: yeah.
[01:02] <zioplaslt> i think i cant reach synaptic, or maybe i dont know how. I guess maybe something is wrong with xorg or graphics card drivers
[01:03] <toastedmilk> zioplaslt, yeah you'd have to use aptitude to reinstall the dependencies
[01:03] <zioplaslt> becauze it freezes after file system checks
[01:03] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: The partition with my home dir that gives problems has (rw, errors=remount-ro) Is that good?
[01:03] <undecim> Jarxes: just run "update-grub" and then reboot, and see if it works.
[01:03] <melvincv> backup, which program?
[01:03] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: yeah, that's good.
[01:03] <zioplaslt> aptitude says all dependencies are resolved, everything updated
[01:03] <melvincv> backup, which program? how bout clonezilla?
[01:04] <toastedmilk> zioplaslt, but you can't log in normally?
[01:04] <dbugger> Anyone want to mourn with me? Windows just erased EVERYTHING :S
[01:04] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: So it seems to be mounted correctly, and the permissions for /bin/bash is correct. Now what? Any ideas? : S
[01:04] <chasedawg1> Whats the best ipod manager?
[01:04] <zioplaslt> no I cant, i dont reach the login screen
[01:04] <zioplaslt> i can only get the console
[01:04] <toastedmilk> zioplaslt, what does it say?
[01:04] <zioplaslt> through recovery boot
[01:05] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: try "su [yourusername]"
[01:05] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: cannot execute /bin/bash
[01:05] <melvincv> backup, which program? how bout clonezilla?
[01:05] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> Permission denied
[01:05] <quietone> chasedawg1: what are you trying to do with the ipod?
[01:06] <zioplaslt> well, i deleted the 'quiet' option, but loading don't show any error, just when file system checks are finished -> screen freezes and thats it
[01:06] <toastedmilk> melvincv, whichever one you like.  there are plenty.
[01:06] <chasedawg1> edit the names and artists but it wont let me
[01:06] <toastedmilk> zioplaslt, reinstall your xorg
[01:06] <hari_> Pici_: cp: missing destination file operand after '/ etc/cups/cupsd.conf.0/etc/cups/cupsd.conf »
[01:06] <zioplaslt> Thank you, I'll try
[01:06] <chasedawg1> quietone: edit the names and artists but it wont let me
[01:06] <quietone> chasedawg1: which program are you using?
[01:06] <melvincv> any system restore program in ubuntu?
[01:07] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: I say just try reinstalling each of your packages, because it seems that some important file got nixed when you ran out of space.
[01:07] <toastedmilk> melvincv, no.
[01:07] <toastedmilk> melvincv, you have to use the terminal
[01:07] <chasedawg1> quietone: rhythmbox
[01:07] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: "sudo aptitude reinstall '~i'".  should do that.
[01:07] <melvincv> k, how do u restore using the terminal?
[01:08] <Pici> hari_: You need to be exact when typing the command. Spacing is important.   sudo cp /etc/cups/cupsd.conf.O /etc/cups/cupsd.conf       thats a capital O, not a 0 also.
[01:08] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: Can I risk losing other stuff? like things in msqldatabases, files and such?
[01:08] <quietone> chasedawg1: there are some formats that rhythmbox cant or wont change the details of. I can fully manipulate anything that is .ogg
[01:08] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: I don't think so, because those are config files. You should backup all your important files before doing this.
[01:09] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: ok
[01:09] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: You should always backup important files before doing anything big.
[01:09] <melvincv> how do u restore ubuntu using the terminal?
[01:09] <chasedawg1> quietone: dang all of mine are m4a or mp3, but do you know another good program/
[01:09] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: yeah.^^
[01:09] <undecim> melvincv: what do you need to restore?
[01:10] <Jebnor> Hello all!
[01:10] <hari_> Pici_: that was my problem
[01:10] <melvincv> backup and resotre the root partition.
[01:10] <hari_> haha
[01:10] <hari_> :D
[01:10] <undecim> melvincv: What's wrong with it?
[01:11] <anondraws> Hey #ubuntu, I recently got some instructions on reading cpu temperature in the shell.
[01:11] <anondraws> Any suggestions on how to regulate it better?
[01:11] <root> hello
[01:11] <melvincv> nothing, just in case...
[01:11] <quietone> chasedawg1: when I dual booted I played with Songbird. It seems to have good community support and features. I got the children off itunes and onto Songbird and they like.
[01:11] <anondraws> My notebook seems to be intent on setting itself on fire.
[01:11] <undecim> So you just want to backup your files in case disaster strikes?
[01:11] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: lol, I couldn't do that command. I got "can't open /etc/sudoers: Permission Denied."
[01:11] <Jebnor> In 8.04LT I'm tying to install libqt4-dev and it does not install due to a bunch of dependencies that are 'not going to be installed'.  Has anyone seen this behaviour?
[01:12] <Jebnor> Correction. 8.10.
[01:12] <chasedawg1> quietone: k thanks
[01:12] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: Sorry, you cam omit "sudo" from that command, since you are in the recovery console.... Hopefully you don't get a Permission error from aptitude...
[01:12] <melvincv> yes
[01:12] <quietone> chasedawg1: do you also use windows?
[01:13] <chasedawg1> quietone: ya i have dual boot, but i dont get on windows that much
[01:13] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: I tried that too, and then aptitude printed out all avalilable parameters and at the bottom "This aptitude does not have super cow powers"
[01:14] <undecim> melvincv: Well then you don't need to worry about the entire root partition, because all the files from there can be downloaded freely from ther internet. You just need to copy any important files from your home directory to somewhere else.
[01:14] <cg> Has anyone managed to get line-in going for an onboard sound card, to play straight through speakers without a delay? tried pulseaudio's loopback module but it has a 1-2 second delay :(  thanks.
[01:14] <quietone> chasedawg1: If you check out Songbird, beware that you can't share the music library with both systems, you will need to maintain two libraries (one of the reasons I left).
[01:15] <melvincv> k
[01:15] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: nvm, typo. xD
[01:15] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: lol, I was in the middle of suggesting that it was...
[01:15] <Jebnor> Anyone have trouble installing libqt4-dev?
[01:15] <melvincv> now, is there a system automatic repair option in ubuntu?
[01:16] <melvincv> how to use it?
[01:16] <donny> Jebnor, installing or using?
[01:16] <ckw> Any way to foce anything written to stdout/stderr to also be written to a log file?
[01:16] <zig_> I'm trying to use the usb-creator to setup a USB stick to boot an Ubuntu install
[01:16] <cooldeniz> hello
[01:16] <undecim> Jebnor: it installed fine for me.
[01:16] <zig_> Or rather, the Ubuntu installer
[01:16] <chasedawg1> quietone: ya i did play with that and songbird doesn't work with anything else. Do you know anything about amarok?
[01:16] <zig_> And I've a question: I put the USB stick in, and it reads in the utility as having two devices: /dev/sdd and /dev/sdd1
[01:16] <undecim> ckw: look at tee. It should be installed by default.
[01:17] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: I got another error now after it listed all packages that was gpoing to be reinstalled: "I wasn't able to locate file for the linux-image-2.6.24-24-server package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package."  :(
[01:17] <ckw> I am getting a crash that outputs to the server cga console, then becomes unresponsive
[01:17] <zig_> This leads me to believe the USB stick is in fact partitions... my question is: Which should I select to format?
[01:17] <melvincv> is there a system automatic repair option in ubuntu?
[01:17] <imran> Hey guys, quick question. Here's the scenario : Had Windows XP. Later, installed Ubuntu to a new HD. Even later, partitioned the Windows drive and installed Windows 7 on it. This replaced Grub. Now, Windows 7 boots and asks if I want to boot 7 or XP. I reinstalled Grub, and all that I can get on now is Ubuntu. How can I get back to booting Windows 7, from where I can choose XP or 7?
[01:17] <zig_> Should I format /dev/sdd, clearing out the partition information? Or should I format /dev/sdd1?
[01:17] <komputes> zig_: the sdd is the device, the sdd1 is the partition
[01:17] <komputes> zig_: it makes no diff what you partition, in my experience
[01:18] <melvincv> imran: there should an option called windows xp professional
[01:18] <quietone> chasedawg1: No. I have stopped searching for music programs as Rythymbox covers my personal needs. Have you read the forums?
[01:18] <komputes> zig_: this is a new issue introduced with devicekit-disks in 9.10
[01:18] <komputes> zig_: would you like the bug number?
[01:18] <Jarxes> undecim: ok, seems it's done. I'm rebooting my machine. hope it'll work fine now. I'll be back to report whether success or failure.
[01:19] <imran> melvincv, there is but trying to boot that does literally nothing. also tried to add a windows 7 boot command, and didn't work. Got an error 22 or something.
[01:19] <chasedawg1> quietone: I'm reading them now.
[01:20] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: I'm all out of ideas for this one. I think you might have better luck on the Ubuntu forums though, since someone must have run into a problem like this before, and the forums tend to reach more eyes than IRC.
[01:20] <melvincv> imran: u have windows on another harddisk?
[01:20] <NFischer> Hi all, i seemingly have accidentally deleted wines entry in Applications-Bar.. how do i get it back? i.e. Wine is not selectable in the Applications-bar on gnome-panel.
[01:20] <ckw> imran, run os-prober as root
[01:20] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: Okay, I'll try that then. Thanks for the help anyway. ^^
[01:20] <quietone> chasedawg1: happy reading. i'm off now
[01:21] <melvincv> nfischer: how did u delete it?
[01:21] <chasedawg1> quietone: k thanks
[01:21] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk:  No problem... If I think of anything, I'll be sure to post it.
[01:21] <tkmr> NFischer, go to Preferences -> Main Menu and then add it again.
[01:21] <imran> melvincv, I have windows XP and 7 on 1st drive, and ubuntu on my 2nd
[01:21] <imran> ckw, downloading and installin
[01:21] <NFischer> melter, yeah i cant really remember.. its been a time.. i deinstalled it and wien would not disapear
[01:21] <ckw> undecim, This is being output to the console when an app crashes, I'm not actually running anything from the console at the time
[01:22] <ckw> thus, I can't use tee
[01:22] <imran> ckw, /dev/sda1:Windows Vista (loader):Windows:chain
[01:22] <NFischer> melter, so i deleted it (i think!) by rightclicking Edit Menues
[01:22] <NFischer> tkmr, its not there anymore
[01:22] <Jarxes> undecim: If it does work, this accomplishment should find its way to some grub-fix forum don't you think? I'll edit and post all we did on pastebin so you may edit it further and post it on some forum. Maybe it'll be useful to someone else as well...
[01:23] <ckw> Well that's interesting
[01:23] <NFischer> tkmr, i did not deselect "show" but deleted it
[01:23] <melvincv> imran: sudo grub-install hd1 --root-directory=/media/disk
[01:23] <ckw> imran, you might have to reconstruct it by hand
[01:23] <undecim> ckw: sounds like you have something backgrounded.
[01:23] <ckw> Yes
[01:23] <ckw> I know
[01:23] <NFischer> tkmr, since ive had it uninstalled that time
[01:23] <melvincv> imran: after mounting the root partition using the live cd, as /media/disk
[01:23] <tkmr> NFischer: You should be able to add it via the "Add Menu Item" iirc
[01:23] <tkmr> ?
[01:23] <ckw> And something is crashing and outputting to either stderr or stdout, I don't know which
[01:24] <ckw> what I want to know is how to redirect them to files
[01:24] <nvme> i am trying to access an ubuntu desktop thats on the LAN of a windows desktop that i can connect to using remote desktop, is there any way i could get direct ssh to the linux machine ?  (only have access to the windows machine through internet )
[01:24] <ckw> so I can figure out what's wrong
[01:24] <NFischer> tkmr, Type? Command?
[01:24] <imran> melvincv, I  am on Ubuntu now, no live disk - Im trying to ADD windows to grub
[01:24] <imran> ckw, How can I go about this, what do you mean by "by hand"
[01:25] <melvincv> k
[01:25] <melvincv> 1 min...
[01:25] <nohup> imran: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:25] <ckw> imran, modifying the grub menu file directly
[01:25] <imran> ckw, nohup, I went in there and tried to edit the file but I apparantly didnt put the right numbers/info
[01:26] <nohup> isn't there an example for it by default ?
[01:26] <melvincv> title		Microsoft Windows XP Professional
[01:26] <melvincv> rootnoverify	(hd1,0)
[01:26] <melvincv> savedefault
[01:26] <melvincv> makeactive

[01:26] <FloodBot1> melvincv: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:26] <imran> ckw, nohup, Can you tell me what to put - Windows XP should be 0,0 and Win 7 should be 0,1
[01:26] <nohup> exactly, and replace the (hd1,0) by the apropiate partition
[01:26] <nohup> imran: what melvincv just pasteed :)
[01:27] <drummerboy> hi, i’m installing 9.10 on an old laptop. with the live-cd all looked good, but now i installed it and there are no more characters visible. only rectangles
[01:27] <ckw> imran, Can you please put the file into pastebin?
[01:27] <nohup> although mine isn't using makeactive.. (hat does that do, melvincv?)
[01:27] <Dimoutlook> Good evening is it very hard to duel boot vista with 4 partitions on a 1 TB drivw
[01:27] <sulio> need an ebook reader for Ubuntu... any thoughts?
[01:27] <Dimoutlook> that should be drive
[01:27] <sulio> dimoutlook I dont think it would be difficult
[01:28] <melvincv> the grub-install automatically did that 4 me
[01:28] <undecim> ckw: Have a look at http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/io-redirection.html. It explains all the various BASH redirections you can use.
[01:28] <sulio> dimoutlook Are you worried that 250 GB isnt enough HD space for Vista?
[01:28] <tkmr> NFischer: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=4025416&postcount=4 ?
[01:28] <Dimoutlook> okm thanks could you point me to a good faq on that
[01:28] <drizzt__> I'm having problems trying to connect WinX
[01:28] <ckw> ...
[01:28] <ckw> I know about bash redirections
[01:28] <ckw> this process, whatever it is, is auto starting
[01:28] <ckw> I'm not starting it
[01:29] <ckw> however, it is outputting to the standard console
[01:29] <drizzt__> P share to Karmic machine, getting NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE error
[01:29] <undecim> ckw: Sorry... didn't understand.
[01:29] <nohup> ckw: it's not doing that though syslogd ?
[01:29] <DBCOOPA> ubbotu: you were helping me with my sound earlier and i had to jet. first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). I don't see this option anywhere in my volume control?
[01:29] <Dimoutlook> Ok thanks could you point me to a good faq on that s search on the forums only gave three hits
[01:29] <imran> melvincv, two things : One, Windows OS's are on my 1st HD, so should it be (0,x) and two, should I actually run 7 since that is the one that chains to XP?
[01:29] <imran> ehhh he left....
[01:30] <imran> ckw, Do you want me to actually upload my menu.lst?
[01:30] <sulio> http://articles.techrepublic.com.com/5100-10878_11-6157570.html this might do it for you Dimoutlook, but Im not really sure what you want to dual boot to besides vista... you want ubuntu on the other partition? and what about the other two partitions?
[01:30] <NFischer> tkmr, awesome, thx!
[01:30] <geitenneuker> i eat a fnord
[01:30] <ckw> imran, yes
[01:30] <johnd> ok, my host keeps sending me a security update thing about an apache2 problem and how it is a kernel issue... but I couldn't find anything about it for ubuntu
[01:30] <johnd> haven't updated or anything either
[01:30] <ryanCH> can someone please explain how this works exactly the \32\ part.. "grep -o "[a-z0-9]\{32\}""
[01:30] <imran> ckw, http://pastebin.com/m427fbc7e
[01:30] <tkmr> NFischer: That worked? =)
[01:30] <Dimoutlook> One ext4 the other ntfs
[01:30] <NFischer> tkmr, yes!
[01:31] <devunt> hello
[01:31] <drizzt__> ryanCH, exactly 32 repetitions
[01:31] <imran> ckw, again, note that my Windows OS's are on my FIRST HD, and that Windows 7 is the one that can boot into XP or 7 (As far as I know anyway)
[01:31] <tkmr> NFischer: Cool. Glad I could help. =)
[01:31] <ryanCH> drizzt__, is there an example i could see to see exactly how it works?
[01:31] <ryanCH> drizzt__, whats with the \'s?
[01:31] <nohup> imran: and windows is on the first partition of that hd ?
[01:31] <sulio> What's a good ebook reader for Ubuntu? Anyone?
[01:32] <drizzt__> ryanCH, \ makes { and } special characters
[01:32] <nohup> sulio: ek=books aren't just pdfs ? (never bought one)
[01:32] <ckw> Yup, I understand
[01:32] <nohup> e-books, even
[01:32] <imran> NoCode, 1st drive is partitioned : 1st partition XP, 2nd Partition Win 7 and 2nd HD is ALL ubuntu
[01:32] <imran> NoCode, sorry wrong person
[01:32] <imran> nohup,  1st drive is partitioned : 1st partition XP, 2nd Partition Win 7 and 2nd HD is ALL ubuntu
[01:32] <drizzt__> ryanCH, it's \{m,n\}, where m and n are minimum and maximum repetition count
[01:33] <Jarxes> undecim: YOU ARE MY HERO. I'M BACK ON MY SYSTEM. I AM GOING TO PRAISE YOUR NOBLE NAME TILL THE END OF MY DAYS!! ;) - thanx mate, I'm posting this accomplishment on pastebin. I'm sure you know better what to to with it than I do.
[01:33] <Flea_> imran, is there a point to having 3 OS's installed?
[01:33] <nohup> imran: well you could try (0,1) if you say that one 'chains' to xp... but if xp boots from the first it SHOULD work, i guess..
[01:33] <djtoast> Hi all,  Does anyone know if multi gpu support is planned in the next randr version?
[01:33] <nohup> although i'm not sure if there's supposed to be a space between chainloader and +1... :) (mine has one)
[01:34] <sulio> nohup No, I guess they are not... check out this site http://www.diesel-ebooks.com/cgi-bin/category.cgi?category=search&query=^search_by_series.sql&q1=Daniel%20X
[01:34] <sulio> nohup the formats are quite diverse
[01:34] <djtoast> I read that it was supposed to in 1.3 but never made it.
[01:34] <ckw> imran, Ugh, I was hoping I could copy from my grub files, but I'm using grub2
[01:34] <Dimoutlook> sulio thanks for the tip going to sign off and try that will get back latter
[01:34] <imran> Flea_, Sure. XP for Gaming, Ubuntu for fun, and 7 for working.
[01:35] <ckw> Just copying the XP part, replacing (hd0, 0) with (hd0, 1) doesn't work?
[01:35] <sulio> Dimoutlook Right, use GOOGLE if you have any more questions, it will lead you to many forums
[01:35] <drizzt__> I'm having problems trying to connect WinXP share to Karmic machine, getting NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE error
[01:35] <Wilabob> Hi, guys... I just tried updating to grub2 and now I'm getting error 15...
[01:35] <Wilabob> Anyone help me?
[01:35] <nohup> sulio: oh, i see.. how very annoying...
[01:35] <geitenneuker> why firefox is sodamn slow
[01:35] <imran> ckw, Tried that actually, and changed back to old verson
[01:35] <sulio> nohup No kidding. I suppose I could run something under Wine
[01:35] <drizzt__> geitenneuker, because you have many plugins
[01:35] <ckw> What happened when you added it?  the menu showed up but it didn't work?
[01:35] <geitenneuker> drizzt__: i got no plugins
[01:36] <geitenneuker> i dont need that
[01:36] <nohup> ckw: isn't there a space needed between "chainloader" and "+1" ?
[01:36] <Flea_> imran, cool... I just feel like I would pick one OS and stay in it mostly and neglect the other two.
[01:36] <geitenneuker> i compare it with chrome, and chrome is tons faster
[01:36] <imran> ckw, if I recall, I got an "Error 22" or something similar - I'll try again, be back in a minute...
[01:36] <imran> Flea_, Hint hint, i stick with XP
[01:36] <geitenneuker> firefox is a piece of whatever
[01:36] <saptech> greetings all
[01:37] <drizzt__> geitenneuker, try Opera then. What is youur Ubuntu question?
[01:37] <Wilabob> Can someone help me with grub2 and error 15?
[01:37] <Oak> What is the name of the program that shows your size of the files on your computer in boxes?
[01:38] <forceflow> Oak: "Disk Usage Analyzer"
[01:38] <Oak> forceflow: thanks
[01:38] <prohna> is there a fix for firefox not refreshing correctly when compiz is on?
[01:38] <forceflow> Oak: also known as baobab
[01:38] <prohna> like when i scroll a page
[01:38] <geitenneuker> firefox has spaghetti code
[01:38] <drizzt__> does it have 'boxes'?
[01:38] <geitenneuker> just like gnome, lot of spaghetti coe
[01:38] <prohna> seems like i remember having this issue years ago when i used it
[01:39] <prohna> woulda thought it had been resolved by now
[01:39] <ubuntu> hmm wich distos you guys using or wich one is rhe best for a linux nub?
[01:39] <factotum> geitenneuker: you should check out the kernel some time ha!
[01:39] <drizzt__> take your whining in #mozilla or whatever
[01:39] <geitenneuker> tons of config files, i hate that, is it possible to use a windows like system, using a "registry" file instead of those crappy old .conf sucks?
[01:39] <prohna> its not a firefox issue
[01:39] <prohna> when compiz is off it goes away
[01:39] <factotum> geitenneuker: yes
[01:39] <geitenneuker> factotum: xml language or something
[01:39] <nohup> imran: and and and ? :)
[01:40] <drizzt__> geitenneuker, XML is awful idea for registry
[01:40] <imran> nohup, ckw, Didnt work - got "Error 12 : Invalid Device Requested"
[01:40] <forceflow> geitenneuker: these .conf files allow people to customize the look and feel of firefox
[01:40] <geitenneuker> drizzt__: dbase?
[01:40] <ckw> imran, Does XP work still?
[01:40] <Jarxes> undecim: YOU ARE MY HERO. I'M BACK ON MY SYSTEM. I AM GOING TO PRAISE YOUR NOBLE NAME TILL THE END OF MY DAYS!! ;) - thanx mate, I'm posting this accomplishment on pastebin (http://paste.ubuntu.com/355286/). I'm sure you know better what to to with it than I do.
[01:40] <drizzt__> geitenneuker, yes
[01:40] <Jarxes> undecim: are you there?
[01:41] <ja660k> i need a app to monitor some well known ports ie ssh, ftw for activity ?
[01:41] <geitenneuker> forceflow: i talk about  a single file, now every config file has to find all over the isk
[01:41] <sunraider3> i am having a problem installing anything. i run config then when i enter make or make install in says permission is denied usr/etc... do i need to run this as root or something???
[01:41] <imran> ckw, Nope D:
[01:41] <ja660k> ftp*
[01:41] <factotum> if I was a mozilla dev I could have a specific answer, but alas I am not
[01:41] <factotum> then again I dont use Firefox anymoe
[01:41] <geitenneuker> i hope a coder from microsoft create such a OS without .conf crap
[01:41] <Trizicus> I'm trying to burn a DVD and it worked before using Brasero. Now I try and it doesn't find my drive at all.
[01:41] <ckw> Hrm
[01:42] <brewster> ubuntu trt linux mint for newbs
[01:42] <imran> ckw, Is there anything for ubuntu that will tell me what partitions have OS's on them so I can be 100% sure my (X,X)'s are right?
[01:42] <ckw> kind of wish you had a laptop so you could test and talk :P
[01:43] <factotum> just go back to using nc, it makes things easier
[01:43] <sunraider3>  i am having a problem installing anything. i run config then when i enter make or make install in says permission is denied usr/etc... do i need to run this as root or something, if so, what is the command???
[01:43] <djtoast> what would i loose by downgrading to 8.04 ? from 9.10
[01:43] <imran> ckw Well, I could run chat on my iPod but I would be responding slower, and making lots of typos...
[01:43] <factotum> 1.06
[01:43] <ckw> Alright, I remember what I did now, when I had one hard drive with windows and one with linux
[01:43] <ckw> imran, check out http://ubuntu-georgia.org/installing_ubuntu_and_windows_xp_on_separate_drives#Case%202:%20You%20already%20installed%20Ubuntu%20on%20an%20HD
[01:43] <drizzt__> djtoast, Compact List GTK view :)
[01:43] <KenBW2> where are the configuration folders for gedit?
[01:44] <treesapsatchel> if i backup files from a ftp in .tar it preserves file permissions/chmod: my question is where is that permissions data stored... is it in each individual file or is there a global list with the files and their chmods that is accessed to determine it
[01:44] <ckw> changing the value in root (hd0, 0) to (hd1, 0)
[01:44] <ckw> then adding the two mapp lines
[01:44] <factotum> KenBW2: ~/.gedit i think
[01:44] <ubuntu> i tryed mint 8, ubuntu 9.10 xbuntu 9.10 kubuntu 9.10 netbook remix feeling ubuntu maby best for me
[01:44] <drizzt__> treesapsatchel, it's in each file header
[01:44] <Trizicus> gnome no longer auto mounts my cd/dvd drive and brasero no longer detects drive. How do I fix this?
[01:44] <sunraider3> anyone?
[01:44] <sunraider3>  i am having a problem installing anything. i run config then when i enter make or make install in says permission is denied usr/etc... do i need to run this as root or something???
[01:44] <jtaji> treesapsatchel: it's stored in the tar file
[01:45] <drizzt__> sunraider3, sudo <command> if you're installinf from terminal
[01:45] <treesapsatchel> is it possible to modify manually and selectively?
[01:45] <jrib> treesapsatchel: I'm not sure why you would ask that question but: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tar_(file_format)
[01:45] <forceflow> sunraider3: you probably need root privileges, add "sudo" before the command
[01:45] <djtoast> seems that 8.04 is the only version that had support for multi gpu (triple monitor on 2 vid card)  sucks to have to go back but i think ive exausted every other options.
[01:45] <treesapsatchel> before they hit the ftp?
[01:45] <sunraider3> so would--> sudo make install work?
[01:45] <drizzt__> treesapsatchel, write a C pipeline utility and pass tar thru it
[01:45] <sunraider3> "sudo make install"
[01:46] <jrib> sunraider3: work to do what?
[01:46] <jrib> sunraider3: you don't install things on ubuntu or most modern linux distributions by compiling
[01:46] <imran> ckw, if Windows 7 is on (0,1) and it chains to XP on (0,0) shouldn't I set "root" to hd (0,1)? Then, how do I configure the map #'s?
[01:47] <brewster> ubuntu check out MoonOS  google for it
[01:47] <factotum> unless your a genuis and use slackware
[01:47] <sunraider3> jrip: how then?
[01:47] <drizzt__> jrib, of course you do, stuff in repositories is old and buggy
[01:47] <jrib> drizzt__: if you really believe that then there's no point in using a distro
[01:47] <jrib> !software | sunraider3
[01:47] <ardchoille> drizzt__: Then you're doing something wrong.. I haven't had to compile anything in 4 years
[01:48] <factotum> dern kids and their newfangled package managers
[01:48] <Electric|Master> My terminal kind of died on me, and someone suggested I kill Gnome and restart it
[01:48] <drizzt__> ardchoille, you don't compile, you live with bugs until next release
[01:48] <Electric|Master> How do I do that without terminal? :S
[01:48] <imran> ckw, ...hallo?
[01:49] <nohup> Electric|Master: crtl-alt-f1?
[01:49] <Electric|Master> ok
[01:49] <gdiz> hey everyone, I had a question for you.  I recently set up an nfs share on my ubuntu box.  However, I have this strange thing that happens.  The system seems to hang whenever I go to restart/ shutdown, but only when I access the nfs share from a different computer.  Does anyone know why that would be or how to fix it?
[01:49] <nohup> (alt f7 to go back)
[01:49] <nohup> should've probably said that earlier :)
[01:49] <crazy2k> What could be a process called "exe"?
[01:50] <Jarxes> Q: I have an encrypted /home directory on partition with the rest of the system but I want to move it to a different partition. this partition isn't encrypted, and I want to encrypt it after I move my /home directory to that partition. How to accomplish that?
[01:50] <ardchoille> crazy2k: are you using google chrome?
[01:50] <crazy2k> ardchoille: Yes!
[01:51] <ardchoille> crazy2k: It's part of the google chrome package
[01:51] <dan__> Hi !
[01:51] <crazy2k> ardchoille: It was a page with flash in it.
[01:51] <dan__> I have i newby question...
[01:51] <ardchoille> crazy2k: ik, something different then
[01:51] <Electric|Master> Ahh
[01:52] <Electric|Master> I couldn't get out
[01:52] <Electric|Master> lol
[01:52] <Electric|Master> But thank you :)
[01:52] <FloodBot1> Electric|Master: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:52] <dan__> what is "symbol" like in "symbol error lookup"
[01:52] <crazy2k> ardchoille: I mean, I killed that tab and exe stopped eating my processor.
[01:52] <ardchoille> crazy2k: "exe" is part of the google chrome package
[01:52] <drizzt__> dan__, symbols are names of function in modules
[01:52] <nohup> Electric|Master: yeah im sorry,shoudl've mentioned you press alt-f7 to come back :)
[01:52] <dan__> ahhh thanks !!
[01:53] <dan__> ok, beacause Midori, Epiphany not work anymore right now since webkit update
[01:55] <Wilabob> Hi I just booted grub 2 and got an error 15 message. I followed this guide: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Err15 but I get to reconfiguring and it gives me three options and I'm not sure which one. There's sda sdb and something else. I have a separate /boot partition because of an old bios. I have tried sda and sdb and neither work so before I try the last option... Is there anything I'm doing wrong?
[01:56] <drizzt__> I'm having problems trying to connect WinXP share to Karmic machine, getting NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE error
[01:57] <sam9> I currently have win 7 installed on /dev/sda1 and linux on /dev/sdc1 . Do i need to be installing grub on the win7 drive?
[01:57] <Wilabob> Can anyone help me?
[01:58] <airstrike> sam9: you install grub -or- MBR on your boot partition
[01:58] <airstrike> sam9: then configure dual-boot accordingly
[01:58] <christiann> hi somebody knows how fix sysctl is saing "read only"
[01:59] <christiann> sysctl oid: is read only
[01:59] <airstrike> sam9: don't pm me, please. i know very little about this and others can offer some advice too if you keep the convo public
[01:59] <sam9> airstrike. Sorry
[01:59] <airstrike> sam9: i think it just stalls grub on wherever ubuntu is installed
[01:59] <sam9> During install it never asked me where i want to install grub to
[01:59] <airstrike> but that's a big maybe
[02:00] <Wilabob> Okay I just figured it out, I should be using sda and I already used that before. Could grub2 not have installed on my /boot partition and my bios isn't seeing it?
[02:00] <mindfast> hello is there any one who could help me set up a linux router? or even point me to a up to date tutorial on how to do this?  I tried to use this tut found here http://ubuntulinuxhowto.blogspot.com...be-router.html  .... but it seems that tut was made awhile ago and the webmin program is not the same as in the tutorial.  Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!
[02:00] <ardchoille> I would like to have text output instead of the grub splash screen while booting. Do I simply remove "splash" from /etc/default/grub and then run sudo update-grub ?
[02:00] <Jarxes> Q: I have an encrypted /home directory on partition with the rest of the system but I want to move it to a different partition. this partition isn't encrypted, and I want to encrypt it after I move my /home directory to that partition. How to accomplish that?
[02:02] <Dr_Willis> sam9:  you could put grub on the linux drive. and tell the pc via the bios/menus to boot that drive if you wanted.
[02:02] <undecim> Jarxes: How is your home directory encrypted? Karmic's automated encryption (i.e. from the installer)?
[02:02] <ubuntu> http://www.hdwallpapers.net/hd-wallpapers
[02:02] <Dr_Willis> sam9:  duriong one of the last dialogs/install box's theres some extras/options  button i recall.. Or just unplug the windows drive.. install linux.. plug it back in
[02:02] <ubuntu> nice wallpapers
[02:02] <sam9> Dr_Willis: it seems it only boots the drive that is in my SATA port 0
[02:03] <Dr_Willis> sam9:  my pc can boot any opf them if i tell the bios what one to boot.
[02:03] <gdiz> is it possible to have a mount location for a samba drive that is permanent.  Kind of like an fstab for samba?
[02:03] <Dr_Willis> gdiz:  you can put samba shares in fstab - yes.
[02:03] <Dr_Willis> !samba
[02:03] <sam9> Dr_Willis. ok let me try that then. thanks!
[02:04] <Dr_Willis> gdiz:  you quickly learn to NOT use shares with spaces in the names.. :) if using the fstab
[02:04] <Jarxes> undecim: yes, Karmic's automated encryption
[02:04] <Wilabob> Can anyone help me? I'm using the live CD because I updated to grub2 and I now have error 15. I was using a separate /boot partition because of an old bios. I tried this guide: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Err15 but I still can't boot. Is it possible that when I updated it didn't install to my /boot partition but to my linux partition instead? If so can I fix it? I don't want to reinstall!! PLEASE HELP!
[02:04] <entity> hello Ubuntu-ers!
[02:04] <gdiz> Dr_Willis, oh excellent. thank you.  I did not know that.
[02:04] <mindfast> hello is there any one who could help me set up a linux router? or even point me to a up to date tutorial on how to do this?

[02:05] <imran> Ok. I am back to Ground Zero....
[02:05] <undecim> Jarxes: Then you should be able to move your home directory around as if it were full of normal files. Just remember to including the hidden /home/.ecryptfs directory, which contains files needed to unlock your home directory.

[02:06] <Jarxes> undecim: ic, simple, cheers yet again...
[02:06] <undecim> Jarxes: Anytime.
[02:07] <imran> So, I need help and it looks like the people who tried to help me before are gone, so let me explain. I had Windows XP on HD 1. I later installed Ubuntu to HD 2. I LATER partitioned and installed Windows 7 to HD 1. So I have XP and Win 7 on HD 1, and Ubuntu on HD 2. Now, I have GRUB installed and it loads Ubuntu just fine. I cant get it to load Win 7 however. Note that Win 7 "Chain boots" into Win XP, asking if you want to boot XP or 7. So,
[02:07] <imran> how can I add Win 7 to Grub?!
[02:07] <imran> Also note that I forgot to say I cant load Win XP from Grub Either.
[02:09] <Wilabob> Can anyone help me? I'm using the live CD because I updated to grub2 and I now have error 15. I was using a separate /boot partition because of an old bios. I tried this guide: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Err15 but I still can't boot. Is it possible that when I updated it didn't install to my /boot partition but to my linux partition instead? If so can I fix it? I don't want to reinstall!! PLEASE HELP!
[02:09] <Dr_Willis> imran:  in theory if using 9.10 -  the grub tools should see/add  windows.  - you DO have an entry in grub for widnwos or not?
[02:10] <ubuntu> it is somting in startup manager
[02:10] <imran> Dr_Willis, Im using 9.04... Can I easily update to 9.10 without a new CD?
[02:10] <elitecoder> I need to setup a VPN on my server for my iPhone. Does anyone know of a method that works with it?
[02:11] <Dr_Willis> imran:  you can.. but that wont update grub to the latest version (grub2) - and grub2 has the fancy new stuff to see/add windows automatically
[02:11] <Dr_Willis> imran:  you may have to manually edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst and add a proper entry for your windows drive.
[02:12] <imran> Dr_Willis, I tried to manually do it and couldn't get it - How can I update to 9.10 and install Grub2? I wanted to upgrade to 9.10 anyway so this is a good excuse for myself
[02:12] <DragonKnight> 혹시 한국분 계신가요?
[02:12] <Dr_Willis> imran:  i would do a clean install to 9.10 - not a upgrade.. but you can try a upgrade if you want
[02:12] <Dr_Willis> !upgrade
[02:13] <undecim> Wilabob: At grub, you have a "sh:grub>" prompt?
[02:13] <imran> Only reason I dont want to clean install is I'd have to reinstall all my downloaed stuff... Unless upgrading would wipe them anyway?
[02:14] <Dr_Willis> imran:  deopends on what you mean by 'stuff'
[02:14] <Wilabob> undecim: nope just says error 15
[02:14] <imran> Dr_Willis Applications and Tweaks, etc.
[02:14] <imran> Dr_Willis, Games, Compiz settings, others
[02:15] <Dr_Willis> imran:  thers ways to clone a list of what apps you have installed.. and if you keep /home/  on its own partiion, or restore it. your other settings stay the same
[02:15] <baltadt> how do you delete sudo files in terminal
[02:15] <jrib> baltadt: what is a "sudo file"?
[02:15] <Dr_Willis> baltadt:  what do you mean 'sudo files' ?
[02:15]  * jrib hands off to Dr_Willis and goes watch more of the office
[02:16] <baltadt> files in /opt folder...sorry noob here
[02:16] <imran> Dr_Willis, So your saying that if I just went and clicked upgrade, I would lose as much stuff as if I had clean installed?
[02:16] <Dr_Willis> imran:  no that is not what i said.
[02:20] <Dr_Willis> baltadt:  if they are owned  by root.. then you use the proper sudo commands to delete them
[02:20] <baltadt> what is that command?
[02:20] <Dr_Willis> imran:  upgradeing however will NOT get you to grub2. so you would still need to add the windows sytem by hand. or manually upgrade to grub2
[02:20] <Dr_Willis> baltadt:  sudo rm /path/to/whatever   - and you proberly SHOULD go read a few bash tutorials first
[02:20] <imran> Dr_Willis, I understand, and ok one more question, is the installation of grub2 difficult, assuming I'm decent with terminal?
[02:20] <baltadt> <----- trying to learn terminal commands. I have been trying to learn but I am a hans on learner
[02:20] <baltadt> ty
[02:20] <undecim> Wilabob: What if you hold down the Shift button while Grub is loading?
[02:20] <Dr_Willis> !grub2 | imran
[02:20]  * Dr_Willis waits for baltadt to come back saying he accidently deleted /
[02:20] <Home_> hello, is there anyone here with experience on setting up a linux router?  Even if you could just point me to a up to date tutorial that would be appreciated.
[02:20] <imran> Thanks Dr_Willis :) I'll come back tomorrow, if you're on and post results - Home internet is kinda slow, at school, wifi goes about 1 mbps. A good improvement :)
[02:20] <Dr_Willis> Home_:  i recall several linux -router projects.. basuically you set up the proper iptables and  ICS rules...
[02:20] <zig_> Is there anything wrong with only having LVM2 LV's?
[02:20] <Dr_Willis> !ics | Home_
[02:20] <zig_> And no /boot outside the LVM or anything?
[02:21] <nihi> #lol
[02:22] <Home_> thank you. i will check out those 2 links
[02:23] <PinkFreud> hey folks.  trying to convince karmic to give me a gdm session via xdmcp on a headless box (i.e., a VM which lacks a framebuffer)
[02:23] <ardchoille> I would like to have text output instead of the grub splash screen while booting. Do I simply remove "splash" from /etc/default/grub and then run sudo update-grub ?
[02:23] <PinkFreud> I have a custom.conf in place for gdm, and I've added a [server] section which *should* disable the default X server startup in gdm.  Problem is, it doesn't work.
[02:23] <mvierow> hi everyone
[02:23] <PinkFreud> Is this possible to do with karmic's gdm?  Or is it too brain-dead to pull this off?
[02:23] <baltadt> what is the command to delete a duplicate directory that has root permission
[02:23] <webdawg> which is faster:  Banshee or Amarok?
[02:24] <Dr_Willis> PinkFreud:  i recall somewhere that  many adavanced features gdm had are not in the default that 9.10 has.. people have had to use the older gdm for some features.
[02:25] <PinkFreud> Dr_Willis: uhgh.  lobotomized, then.
[02:25] <Dr_Willis> PinkFreud:  and i mean fetures other then the lack of themeing. :) but i dont recall teh details of what advanced features were in the old. and not in the new.
[02:25] <git__> Dr_Willis, do u know much about acpi in 9.10?
[02:25] <PinkFreud> may just have to install kdm.  :/
[02:25] <muppet> howdy all
[02:25] <baltadt> what is the command to delete a duplicate directory that has root permissions
[02:25] <Dr_Willis> PinkFreud:  thats what i got on this box right now.  kdm
[02:25] <git__> i think acpi in 9.1 is terribly broken
[02:26] <iAmerikan> sudo rm -rf directory
[02:26] <Dr_Willis> baltadt: still not taken tiume to read some bash tutorals eh. :)
[02:26] <baltadt> ty
[02:26] <Dr_Willis> !bash
[02:26] <muppet> can anyone confirm this as a bug with packagekit? karmic-64: Gtk-Message? Failed to load module "pk-gtk-module": libpk-gtk-module.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[02:26] <PinkFreud> Dr_Willis: it doesn't really matter that much for me - I'm just trying to get a remote graphical login one way or another.
[02:26] <N7iii> hi guys, this is my firstime get into IRC lol~
[02:26] <Dr_Willis> PinkFreud:  i tend to install xming on windows and ssh -x over. :)
[02:26] <muppet> N7iii: hi & welcome
[02:27] <baltadt> Dr_Willis: I need to remove it now because it is messing up my website
[02:27] <PinkFreud> Dr_Willis: naaa, no Windows here.  just *nix.  :)
[02:27] <baltadt> but i will
[02:27] <L0rD`> baltadt: sudo rm -rf /name/of/the/directory/place or rmdir /directory/place...
[02:27] <undecim> ardchoille: Make sure there is no "quiet" option there as well. I don't remember if the quite option was removed from Karmic final or not. But otherwise, yes, that is how you go about that. Alternatively, you can just remove quiet, and have both the splash screen AND text.
[02:27] <PinkFreud> I've stuffed Karmic into a Xen domU, which, of course, is headless.
[02:27] <PinkFreud> iow, starting an X server is useless.  :)
[02:27] <Dr_Willis> baltadt:  you might want to 'sudo apt-get install mc'  then 'sudo mc' and learn to use mc
[02:28] <N7iii> thanks u man
[02:28] <ardchoille> undecim: Ok, the "quiet" is still there in Karmic when I installed it yesterday. Thanks for the advice :)
[02:28] <fumbles> so I'm copying an image of my windows installation to a new disk (upgrade) and will tar up the linux partition. I can just simply reinstall grub2 with a live usb correct?
[02:28] <Dr_Willis> fumbles:  your UUID's may be changed depenign on what you do exactly
[02:28] <tekonivel-o> bugger, no space on / to update Jaunty to Karmik
[02:29]  * tekonivel-o sighs
[02:29] <fumbles> Dr_Willis: It's a new hardrive so I believe the UUID's will
[02:29] <fumbles> I could just copy the custom_40 file from my /etc/grub.d/
[02:29] <Dr_Willis> fumbles:  the tune2fs command can change uuids :) that may be easier then finding all the other places where UUIDs are used.
[02:29] <Dr_Willis> bye all..
[02:30] <Brandon_> I just installed 9.10 it won't boot normally, just in recovery mode. I had a problem with the /dev/disk/by-uuid directory being missing in the busybox shell, but that seems to be fixed. Now it hangs at the progress bar. How can I see normal text for the boot? (I've removed quiet and splash in grub)
[02:30] <fumbles> I could just update the UUIDs too...the os_prober will find the other operating systems as well as my custom_40 :x
[02:32] <Wilabob> Can anyone help me? I'm using the live CD because I updated to grub2 and I now have error 15. I was using a separate /boot partition because of an old bios. I tried this guide: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Err15 but I still can't boot. Is it possible that when I updated it didn't install to my /boot partition but to my linux partition instead? If so can I fix it? I don't want to reinstall!! PLEASE HELP!
[02:33] <Wilabob> Or can I reinstall without losing some packages and wireless drivers?
[02:33] <undecim> Wilabob: If you hold down shift while grub is loading (right after you see your laptop manufacturer logo), do you get a menu?
[02:34] <Wilabob> undecim: let me check I'm on the live cd right now..
[02:34] <jchico> Hello, does anybody know how to fix the problem where my sound suddenly just stops working? It happens when I am listening to music on RhythmBox and then I try to watch some flash video. It didn't do this before.
[02:34] <Brandon_> So, no way to turn off that progress bar at boot?
[02:35] <Wilabob> undecim: Nope just GRUB Loading stage1.5. GRUB loading, please wait... Error15
[02:37] <undecim> Wilabob: okay, make sure (using a livecd) that your /boot partition is intact. (i.e. you can find files on it)
[02:37] <X-Sleepy-X> Any help would be appreciated: nano a Error reading /home/user/.nano_history: Permission denied Press Enter to continue starting nano.
[02:38] <Ubee> How can I add more codex to my openplayer so that I can burn dvds?
[02:38] <Wilabob> undecim: How do I find that? click filesystem?
[02:38] <undecim> Wilabob: Yes. you should be able to access it as if it were a thumb drive.
[02:38] <Wilabob> undecim: It's still there when I do sudo fdisk -l
[02:39] <undecim> Make sure you can see files on it.
[02:39] <Wilabob> undecim: but I've never been able to access it from the filesystem menu
[02:39] <git__> i think ubuntu 9.1 is pretty unstable
[02:39] <kieutrongduc> howto install ubuntu anhd window
[02:39] <undecim> Wilabob: Do you get an error when you try to do so?
[02:40] <undecim> git__: Agreed.
[02:40] <Wilabob> undecim: just wait for me to load the cd then I can give you more info.... OK loaded one sec
[02:40] <X-Sleepy-X> Anyone knows what's wrong with my nano?
[02:41] <wrektjet> how do u check your last reboot?
[02:41] <Wilabob> undecim: OK clicked filesystem then clicked boot and there are files but I'm not sure that this is my /boot partiton
[02:42] <happy_> X-Sleepy-X: you first used nano as root (or with sudo)
[02:42] <ardchoille> wrektjet: check when you last rebooted?
[02:42] <zack9000> ver irc.efnet.net
[02:42] <wrektjet> yes ardchoille While i was away
[02:42] <ardchoille> wrektjet: uptime
[02:42] <wrektjet> for a few days
[02:42] <wrektjet> thnx
[02:42] <happy_> X-Sleepy-X: sudo chown ${USER}.${USER} /home/user/.nano_history
[02:42] <X-Sleepy-X> happy_: I used nano to edit /etc/apache2/php.ini and I used Ctrl+W to search and then pasted some text and saved.
[02:43] <happy_> X-Sleepy-X: the first time, it was run as root
[02:43] <happy_> run the command I gave you
[02:43] <Wilabob> undecim: But on sudo fdisk -l I can see that it's there as /dev/sda1
[02:43] <Brandon_> so, I haven't managed to boot 9.10 to the desktop yet. Is this version just totally broken?
[02:43] <undecim> Wilabob: The boot partition should include the grub directory and files with names starting with initrd..img, vmlinuz
[02:44] <X-Sleepy-X> happy_:  Thanks alot!
[02:44] <happy_> X-Sleepy-X: np
[02:44] <eightyeight> hmmm
[02:44] <X-Sleepy-X> happy_: I dunno why that helped though because the owner and group already was my username on that file...
[02:44] <Wilabob> undecim: under filesystem I see boot when clicking on it I can see the grub folder and there are some files
[02:45] <happy_> X-Sleepy-X: it wasn't that was the problem
[02:45] <wrektjet> hey i have a small issue witha program i run as a server. its running off of java and i know its still working but i cant get to the instance thats already in use.
[02:45] <nooneinhere> wrektjet, ps aux|grep [nameofisntance]
[02:46] <happy_> X-Sleepy-X: it happens all the time. It happens when you use sudo and it does not exist yet
[02:46] <Wilabob> undecim: oh... found my /boot partition It has a lot of files including the folder grub. But there is also a boot folder on my linux partition and I think that is the problem.
[02:47] <zapconquest> !ops | McLeansCanada
[02:47] <McLeansCanada> What did I do?
[02:47] <McLeansCanada> I haven't said anything
[02:47] <ae86-drifter> what can i do to improve my system's performance, im running 9.10, with LXDE and google chrome, any other suggestions?
[02:47] <McLeansCanada> and I am being reported
[02:47] <X-Sleepy-X> happy_: ls -lh .bash_history -rw------- 1 username username   26 2010-01-12 03:31 .bash_history     sudo chown ${USER}.${USER} /home/username/.nano_history     ls -lh .bash_history -rw------- 1 username username   26 2010-01-12 03:31 .bash_history
[02:47] <happy_> jrib: what did McLeansCanada do? He looks innocent
[02:48] <jrib> happy_: see his part message
[02:48] <undecim> Wilabob: Okay, you are running a live cd right now?
[02:48] <eric_3> hey i have an xubuntu with a WLAN and LAN card. I also have a windows xp w/ a LAN card. there is no ethernet port near the Windows XP. i was wondering if i could route the Windows XP ethernet through the Xubuntu and use it's WLAN to connect to the network. Is this possible?
[02:48] <Wilabob> undecim: Yes
[02:48] <happy_> jrib: ah, I skip that stuff :-\
[02:48] <undecim> okay. Unmount (i.e. eject) any hard drives that you have opened with the file browser.
[02:48] <X-Sleepy-X> happy_: That's what it looked like... :S
[02:49] <undecim> Wilabob: okay. Unmount (i.e. eject) any hard drives that you have opened with the file browser. (sorry, keep forgetting to highlight my replies)
[02:49] <happy_> X-Sleepy-X: no idea
[02:49] <eric_3> hey i have an xubuntu with a WLAN and LAN card. I also have a windows xp w/ a LAN card. there is no ethernet port near the Windows XP. i was wondering if i could route the Windows XP ethernet through the Xubuntu and use it's WLAN to connect to the network. Is this possible?
[02:49] <Wilabob> undecim: Okay done
[02:49] <undecim> Once you have done that, open a terminal.
[02:49] <Wilabob> undecim: K
[02:49] <X-Sleepy-X> happy_: and only your command worked not just sudo chown username:username .bash_history
[02:49] <ae86-drifter> im running 9.10, with LXDE and google chrome, any other suggestions to improve my system's performance? its only got 256mb RAM nad p3 350MHz
[02:49] <ae86-drifter> i mean p2
[02:50] <geitenneuker> yeah
[02:50] <geitenneuker> do not use ubuntu
[02:50] <happy_> X-Sleepy-X: maybe you are a different user. Were you typing the user wrong? lol
[02:50] <wrektjet> nooneinhere, i have been playing around with the ps command and i can indeed confirm the identity of the process but how can i open the already running process
[02:50] <undecim> Wilabob: not mount your main partition to /mnt with the command "sudo mount /dev/sdXY /mnt" where /dev/sdXY is the location of you main partition.
[02:50] <ubuntu> oki
[02:50] <wrektjet> i know i can kill it all java apps and open a new one but id really ratrher not nooneinhere
[02:50] <blakkheim> ae86-drifter: not use a DE
[02:51] <blakkheim> ae86-drifter: or what geitenneuker said :/
[02:51] <nooneinhere> wrektjet, what do you mean you want to "open" a process?  If the process has a GUI and it's not opening up then something is wrong
[02:51] <ae86-drifter> blakkheim, ok i understand, it is a server pc, i rarely go into DE anyways, only to edit text files etc..
[02:51] <hari_> I again
[02:51] <Wilabob> undecim: OK, it says mount: can't find /dev/sda6 in /ect/fstab or /ect/mtab
[02:51] <hari_> haha
[02:51] <Joeseph> ae86-drifter: What other programs do you have installed?  I decided on a puppy linux install when I had 128 megs of RAM..   I've heard LXDE is lighter than XFCE though.
[02:51] <X-Sleepy-X> happy_: Can't say for sure since I deleted the history... Oh, well. I'm grateful for your help on this matter. :D
[02:51] <happy_> X-Sleepy-X: np
[02:52] <eric_3> hey i have an xubuntu with a WLAN and LAN card. I also have a windows xp w/ a LAN card. there is no ethernet port near the Windows XP. i was wondering if i could route the Windows XP ethernet through the Xubuntu and use it's WLAN to connect to the network. Is this possible?
[02:52] <geitenneuker> use gentoo thats fast
[02:52] <wrektjet> nooneinhere i guess its a bug then. whenever my comp reboots i cant get to the gui
[02:52] <undecim> Wilabob: can you post the output of "sudo fdisk -l" to pastebin, with comments explaining what each partition is
[02:52] <ae86-drifter> Joeseph, i have heaps of programs installed, it runs fairly quickly, just when i have more than 4 or 5 windows open it starts to lag a bit
[02:52] <eric_3> help?
[02:52] <nightfrog> ae86-drifter: a server with gui?
[02:52] <happy_> geitenneuker: I you trying to find gentoo converts on teh ubuntu channel?
[02:53] <Wilabob> undecim: I can't get on the internet without installing drivers with ndiswrapper
[02:53] <undecim> Wilabob: Although I think that error may just been a typo on your end.
[02:53] <ae86-drifter> nightfrog, its a server, yes but i also have a dedicated server which is seperate and more powerful, but i need this as a workstation occasionally hence the GUI
[02:54] <eric_3> undecim: when you are done i would like to speak with you is that ok?
[02:54] <Wilabob> undecim: Okay I'm looking for a partition that says linux on the side?
[02:54] <nightfrog> ae86-drifter: ok
[02:54] <joshua__> anybody got a X -> vnc translator that implements xrender?
[02:54] <ae86-drifter> nightfrog, i like redundancy... i have about 6 linux boxes set up here
[02:54] <undecim> eric_3: sure.
[02:54] <eric_3> thanks
[02:55] <hari_> mmm i have a problem my printer does not print
[02:55] <Wilabob> undecim: But I know for sure that it's sda6 because it has 50GBs and that's what my linux partition has
[02:55] <crankharder> what /dev/* should I be looking for my USB exteral drive to be on?
[02:55] <Joeseph> ae86-drifter: Yeah, my xubuntu install is not utilizing my graphics card fully, so I'm considering going to LXDE even with 528 megs...  I've heard they're trying to start a canonical supported lubuntu release after Lucid.
[02:55] <joshua__> crankharder /dev/sda??
[02:56] <joshua__> sorry, /dev/sd??
[02:56] <crankharder> joshua__: nope, not there
[02:56] <ae86-drifter> Joeseph, cool, i really like LXDE, its got more than enough features for a desktop
[02:57] <Wilabob> undecim: What should I do now? I still get that error when I type sudo mount /dev/sda6
[02:57] <hari_> yes I again my problem with cups
[02:57] <undecim> Wilabob: We need to know what each of your partitions are supposed to be.
[02:58] <undecim> Wilabob: take a look at fstab on your root partition
[02:58] <hari_> the message says "client-error-document-format-not supported
[02:59] <Q_Continuum> Question on Evolution mail filtering.  I want to use a wildcard in the mail filter, so I can have two entries: *@domain.com and *@*.domain.com - but it doesn't seem to function.
[02:59] <Wilabob> undecim: I don't see fstab when I view my root partition. There's bin, boot, dev, ect, home... Just to name a few
[02:59] <hari_> anyone who knows about this
[03:00] <undecim> Wilabob: Sorry. I meant /etc/fstab.
[03:00] <Clark3934> I know that USB drives are not automatically mounted by default in Ubuntu Server Edition.  However, if I install ubuntu-desktop on top of ubuntu server edition, does this mean that they are now automatically mounted?  Thanks.
[03:00] <hari_> please print took hours trying to no avail
[03:00] <Joeseph> ae86-drifter: Well, Since I'm thinking about it.... Would you recommend installing LXDE via the alternate CD, or just installing lxde in addition to XFCE, (I have enough hard disk space.)
[03:01] <ae86-drifter> Joeseph, just install "lubuntu-desktop" through synaptic ;)
[03:01] <Wilabob> undecim: don't see it under "f" there's firefox-3.0 firefox-3.5 fonts and foomatic
[03:01] <Joeseph> ae86-drifter: Alright.  I'll probably try that later.  Thanks.
[03:02] <hari_> heeelp!!
[03:02] <keepsake> ?
[03:03] <undecim> Wilabob: I think you are looking in the wrong place. You need to use the file browser to look at the main partition of your installed system and read the file /etc/fstab with a text editor. In there will be auto-generated comments (lines starting with #) explaining each partition.
[03:03] <eric_3> hari_ what type of printer is it?
[03:03] <ae86-drifter> hari_, has it worked to begin with?
[03:03] <ae86-drifter> it better be a brother printer
[03:04] <hari_> the printer is hp deskjet d2360
[03:04] <eric_3> my thought was epson becuase my dad had to change things in .config for it
[03:04] <eric_3> sorry
[03:04] <ae86-drifter> brother printers suck to install, especially since 8.10
[03:05] <keepsake> Didn't Brother release Linux drivers?
[03:05] <ae86-drifter> yes, but you need to mkdir /usr/share/[model]
[03:05] <ae86-drifter> and roll back libpoppler
[03:05] <hari_> mmm my ubuntu is 9.10!
[03:05] <ae86-drifter> then install LPR driver
[03:06] <keepsake> Oh yeah, it's the CUPS/LPR stuff =\
[03:06] <hari_> ok
[03:06] <ae86-drifter> then install cupswrapper driver
[03:06] <Wilabob> undecim: Ha! Found it... It was hidden
[03:06] <keepsake> I got mine to work, but that was awhile ago =X
[03:06] <kraitos> does anybody know if songbird supports mp3 players?
[03:06] <undecim> Wilabob: So you understand now what each of your partitions are?
[03:06] <PinkFreud> yep, kdm did the trick
[03:07] <PinkFreud> headless display manager works now.
[03:07] <Wilabob> undecim: Yep, but I already knew what each of my partitions are for...
[03:07] <cg> is there a way to create + run virtual machines via command line in karmic server edition?
[03:07] <eric_3> undecim: are you free?
[03:08] <undecim> eric_3: still helping out Wilabob.
[03:08] <eric_3> k sorry
[03:08] <Wilabob> undecim: it says / was on  /dev/sda6 during installation and /boot was on /dev/sda1 during installation
[03:08] <Wilabob> undecim: and swap was on /dev/sda7
[03:10] <undecim> Wilabob: Okay, so now in a terminal, type "mount | grep sda6" to find out if and where the root partition is mounted.
[03:10] <lotus> hi, how can I make the led on my usb drive turn off from the command line?
[03:11] <Wilabob> undecim: OK, it went through and nothing happened
[03:11] <undecim> Wilabob: Okay, now type this command exactly: "sudo mount /dev/sda6 /mnt"
[03:12] <Wilabob> undecim: done
[03:12] <undecim> lotus: I don't think it is possible to do that.
[03:12] <eric_3> lotus: sounds like an interesting question. I am not an expert but i think that it is a hardware thing. But it may be that the os controls that
[03:12] <Maximiliano> buenaas
[03:12] <undecim> Wilabob: Okay, now type this command: "sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt"
[03:12] <undecim> Wilabob: Im sorry, wait.
[03:12] <lotus> undecim: why?  The right-click safely remove usb drive option does just that
[03:13] <superjet_busy> is there a packages list that ubuntu dropped after or before rsync from debian?
[03:13] <eric_3> that just ubmounts it
[03:13] <lotus> eric_3: I think it might be a hardware thing, but somehow the OS is able to make that happen
[03:13] <undecim> Wilabob: type this command: "sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/boot"
[03:13] <undecim> lotus: That's because it stops the device.
[03:13] <lotus> eric_3: not true.  When I unmount it manually, the light doesn't turn off
[03:13] <Wilabob> undecim: done
[03:13] <lotus> undecim: how can I stop the device by hand?
[03:13] <undecim> lotus: if that's what you meant, you can use "sudo unmount [device or path]"
[03:13] <eric_3> when you click safley remove (bad spelling) it just unmounts it so no data or power is sent to it
[03:14] <eric_3> k sorry
[03:14] <lotus> undecim: eric_3: I've tried that, it doesn't kill the light :D
[03:14] <keepsake> lotus: What about "umount"? =P
[03:15] <undecim> Wilabob: okay, now type "sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sda"
[03:15] <lotus> keepsake: yah that's the command i was issuing.  Are you saying unmount is different?
[03:15] <ouyes> how is the support of ubuntu to dual core cpu ?
[03:15] <keepsake> lotus: Nah, I'm pretty sure it's just umount.
[03:15] <ae86-drifter> ouyes, its good
[03:15] <ouyes> ae86-drifter, how you know that ?
[03:15] <keepsake> ouyes: Personally I've had issues with the 32-bit, but the 64-bit works flawlessly.
[03:16] <undecim> lotus: Come to think of it, that makes some sense... I think maybe there is a DBus call that can be used. After I'm done helping/talking with some people, I'll look for it.
[03:16] <ae86-drifter> ouyes, because i use ubuntu
[03:16] <lotus> keepsake: yah.  I did a "sudo umount /dev/sdb*" and the light is still on
[03:16] <eric_3> perhaps it is still connected when you do that thus allowing for re mounting on other users but when you safley remove it assumes that you are not going to connect to it again. Tell me, when you click safely remove can you remount w/ out having to pul out dirve and put back in?
[03:16] <ouyes> keepsake,  so you think it better to use 32bit ?
[03:16] <lotus> undecim: cool thankyou :D  I found something about a suspend command but I'm not sure I'm doing it right.  http://elliotli.blogspot.com/2009/01/safely-remove-usb-hard-drive-in-linux.html was the page I found it on
[03:16] <crankharder> so if not /dev/sd* where might a USB HD be showing up?
[03:16] <crankharder> ls /dev/hd*
[03:16] <keepsake> ouyes: Yes, if Ubuntu can detect your cores correctly.
[03:17] <lotus> eric_3: I'm not sure let me try to find out
[03:17] <Wilabob> undecim: That didn't work, it gave me all the usages for grub-install
[03:17] <eric_3> k
[03:17] <Wilabob> undecim: I typed exactly: sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt/dev/sda
[03:17] <lotus> eric_3: no, it's not listed in fdisk -l anymore
[03:18] <undecim> Wilabob: I'm sorry... more mistakes from me again. I believe that the = should be a space instead.
[03:18] <ouyes> ae86-drifter, keepsake  i found that the two core of my dual amd cpu were always at the same usage level 38% or 100%, it seems the ubuntu only recognized them just one
[03:18] <ae86-drifter> ouyes, either that or it balances the CPU load!
[03:18] <Wilabob> undecim: Nope that didn't work either.
[03:18] <undecim> Wilabob: Also, make sure you are getting the space between /mnt and /dev/sda
[03:18] <keepsake> ouyes: Do a "sudo cat /etc/proc/cpuinfo"
[03:18] <eric_3> than when you click safely remove it assumes that you are going to take the drive out. And unmount allows you to remount on new user w/ out have to pull out stick
[03:19] <eric_3> does that make sense
[03:19] <eric_3> ?
[03:19] <undecim> Wilabob: It's a little difficult to see the spaces on some IRC clients.
[03:19] <HandyGandy> I'm running the x64 version of Koala. I installed kde. Now I am trying to uninstall mysql, but apt tries to remove kde. Any idea why? Or if I can fix it?
[03:19] <lotus> eric_3: yeah lots of sense.  I still want that functionality at the command line, though.  I know it's there, but I'm not sure how to invoke it.
[03:19] <ouyes> keepsake, no such a file
[03:20] <kraitos> does anybody know if songbird supports mp3 players?
[03:20] <keepsake> Oops
[03:20] <keepsake> my bad
[03:20] <keepsake> ouyes: It should be "sudo cat /cpu/procinfo"
[03:20] <Wilabob> undecim: Oh, it did something else... It said unrecognized option --root-directory when I left the = in and put a space between /mnt and /dev/sda
[03:21] <eric_3> lotus: i think it must be a hardware thing. I may not be correct though so don't stand by my answer. I think that it might also be the flash drive (hence hardware) because diffrent flash drives only have the light turn on when they are being accessed.
[03:21] <ouyes> keepsake, again no such a file
[03:21] <betabot> Hey. I have an encrypted home folder (done during install of 9.10,) and today I added a ssh-agent script to my .profile. Now when I log in it graphically prompts me for an id_rsa passphrase... but the one I set doesn't work, and continuing brings me back to the log-in screen. Any suggestions?
[03:22] <lotus> eric_3: thanks for the thoughts
[03:22] <eric_3> lotus: any time
[03:22] <keepsake> ouyes: What are you running?
[03:22] <hari_>  i can't understand
[03:22] <keepsake> ouyes: I'm really stupid, also. "sudo cat /proc/cpuinfo"
[03:22] <ouyes> keepsake, does the directory cpu exist?
[03:22] <betabot> Right now I am logged in as root, and none of the eCryptfs stuff is working
[03:22] <undecim> Wilabob: Try "sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt/  /dev/sda" I copied that straight from help.ubuntu.com to make sure that I'm getting the details correct.
[03:22] <nooneinhere> how do you configure a wireless nic in ubuntu using wpa2 personal?  The laptop config asks for a Password but in the router the option is "shared Key", where do I configure the password in the router?
[03:22] <michael____> Recently, my usb drives have stopped showing up when I attach them. Can anyone offer any suggestions on why that may be or how I can fix it?
[03:22] <keepsake> ouyes: It's /proc/cpuinfo, sorry; I'm running Windows right now so I couldn't check =P
[03:22] <shawn146> hello?

[03:24] <undecim> eric_3: I'm not sure If I finally fixed Wilabob's Grub or not. I haven't gotten a response from him. But I can talk. If he comes back, I can multi-task.
[03:24] <shawn146> the external editor
[03:25] <joshua__> you mean vi isn't an external editor?
[03:25] <elikem> are you playing a game?

[03:29] <ubuntu> i keep trying to change the default user logged in for my casper-rw usb install but it keeps defaulting the live session user named ubuntu. i have changed the login setting to "present users to log in" and also "auto login my user that I created" but it just keeps going back to live user.
[03:29] <aLeSD> hi all
[03:29] <hari_> help me please
[03:29] <keepsake> ouyes: It tells you how to use pastebin. Basically, go to www.pastebin.com and paste it there =P
[03:29] <kraitos> does anybody know if songbird supports mp3 players?
[03:29] <ubuntu> jdcasey, you mean the install was successful or it wasn't?

[03:29] <keepsake> ouyes: Go to www.pastebin.com
[03:30] <ouyes> keepsake,  i see
[03:30] <jdcasey> ubuntu: yeah, and it's been running for a couple months this way...but after this power interruption, it's not booting
[03:30] <ubuntu> jdcasey, if the install was completed and successful, then a power outage shouldn't have ruined your install.
[03:30] <aLeSD> I'm compiling ardour 2.8.4 by source code. Do you suggest me to uninstalll the official ubuntu package (2.8.2) or install it on the official one ? Or there's a way to create a deb package by the compiled source ?
[03:30] <hari_> ok, obottu
[03:30] <keepsake> ouyes: However, if proc/cpuinfo lists 2 CPUs, they're both detected and so you're fine.
[03:30] <hari_> :D
[03:30] <jdcasey> ubuntu: I'm not sure why the ubuntu partiion wouldn't be booting now. refit is still loading, but when it tries to boot ubuntu, I get a blank screen with a blinking cursor
[03:31] <Wilabob> undecim: One question.. Am I on grub2 now? I'm trying to get a splashimage up and I need to know what one I'm on...
[03:31] <joshua__> ever see a dual socket motherboard with quad cores in it?
[03:31] <ouyes> keepsake, the screen was dead just now
[03:31] <undecim> Wilabob: Yes, this is grub2 now.
[03:31] <Wilabob> undecim: OK, Thanks
[03:31] <keepsake> ouyes: What exactly do you mean?
[03:32] <undecim> Wilabob: Much pretty splashscreens with this one.
[03:32] <saptech> does anyone know if I'm using karmic 32bit will the partimage backup a 64bit distro?
[03:32] <Wilabob> undecim: Yeah, that's the reason I got in this mess :P

[03:33] <ouyes> keepsake, you know what i mean? i can only stay here but can not change to anther window or task
[03:33] <keepsake> ouyes: Did you do a lot of software updates? Try restarting or something =P I don't actually know that much about ubuntu, so can't really help you there.
[03:34] <ouyes> keepsake, it is ok
[03:34] <ouyes> keepsake, il restart it
[03:34] <saptech> joshua_, ok thanks
[03:34] <ubuntu> jdcasey, did you try to boot a livecd and run fsck on your drives. when you boot up the livecd, mount your partitions and check that they are still intact. make sure that /boot/grub/, stage1 and stage2 files etc etc
[03:34] <ubuntu> i keep trying to change the default user logged in for my casper-rw usb install but it keeps defaulting the live session user named ubuntu. i have changed the login setting to "present users to log in" and also "auto login my user that I created" but it just keeps going back to live user.

[03:38] <mebaran151> huzzah, I just deleted my whole home dir by accident
[03:39] <keepsake> ouyes: The pastebin looks good.
[03:39] <FiReSTaRT> ouyes: system, administration, system monitor, system tab should list 2 processors
[03:39] <joshua__> sounds like I spoke of something I had no clue of sorry?
[03:39] <joshua__> I thought partimage was a backup program
[03:39] <saptech> it is
[03:39] <saptech> creates images
[03:39] <joshua__> now I'm even more confused
[03:39] <saptech> lol
[03:39] <mebaran151> cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep processor
[03:39] <ouyes> yes there was
[03:39] <hari_> ANY RESPONSE
[03:39] <mebaran151> that'll give you the number of processors
[03:39] <mazda01> ne1 else running karmic from a casper-rw image on a usb stick?
[03:40] <FiReSTaRT> ouyes: if there are 2 processors it recognizes dual core
[03:40] <keepsake> FiReSTaRT, mebaran151: It showed 2 processors, it's fine.
[03:40] <mazda01> i can't get it to save my fstab changes, my hostname change, and several other changes.
[03:40] <saptech> let me google
[03:40] <ouyes> keepsake, but why there is always the same usage level
[03:40] <shawn146> how do i install my digital camera for a webcam?
[03:41] <keepsake> ouyes: I'm not so sure, I don't think it's a big problem. Does it feel very slow?
[03:41] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT, i suggest you change you nickname, it need more time to spell
[03:41] <FiReSTaRT> shawn146: just plug it in and turn it on. you may have to set it up on the camera but after that cheese should recognize it
[03:41] <FiReSTaRT> ouyes: TAB key completes the nickname :)
[03:41] <chris_lenz123> hey i got a question, why the hell did my tab bar disappear, its not here? like on the bottom of the screen showing if you have a window up, like it does not say that i am veiwing this chat? How do I get it back?
[03:42] <FiReSTaRT> ouyes: type fire and press TAB
[03:42] <mebaran151> heh, I think it's always best to at least introduce the traditional unix way
[03:42] <Dravekx> how do I get XML support with Lamp on UB Server?
[03:42] <undecim> lotus: I found it! Try "devkit-disks --detach /dev/sdX" where /dev/sdX is the device you want to power down. Make sure that you leave the partition number off the end (you're turning off a physical disk, rather than a partition)
[03:42] <Dravekx> "You MUST ensure that PHP has been compiled with support for MySQL, zlib and XML"
[03:43] <Dravekx> how do I do that
[03:43] <ouyes> keepsake, yes my cpu is amd tl-62 with 2.1Ghz but it is slow and when you did nothing the cpu was 38% used in gmone
[03:43] <Dravekx> on ubuntu server?
[03:43] <keepsake> On a side note, is there an easy way to get grub2 over this fail Windows 7 bootloader without too much manipulation?
[03:43] <pec_ar> hi one of my 2 pc suddenly don't have sound with ubuntu.

[03:43] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT,  i know the tab mate but the FiR need more time to spell than ouy?
[03:43] <shawn146> i did connect my camera but nothing popped up
[03:44] <FiReSTaRT> ouyes: u dont have to change the capitalization
[03:44] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT, yes mate,

[03:45] <keepsake> chris_lenz123: Are you sure you have the process "tool" in that bar?
[03:45] <shawn146> FiReSTaRT?
[03:46] <chris_lenz123> keepsake:what do you mean
[03:46] <keepsake> chris_lenz123: If you right click the bar and go to Customize (or something, it's been long), you should be able to find a place to add/remove functions/tools.
[03:46] <kaiser2011> mzawieska: you want to partition you first partition of 1tb into 500 and 500 ?
[03:47] <brando753> is there any simple tools for making historical time lines in ubuntu
[03:47] <chris_lenz123> keepsake: there is no tools, and it just happen right now when i turned my computer on

[03:48] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT,  what the point of the thread ? you mean the problem was caused by flash?
[03:49] <undecim> lotus: I just tested it with my thumb drive. There are lots of other useful things to be found in the devkit-disks manpage, as well.
[03:49] <FiReSTaRT> ouyes: yeah.. on 64bit systems, the flash plugin can get buggy and start a memory leak... so you need to kill the process from time to time but not while playing flash videos :P

[03:50] <pec_ar> mzawiesca i think you can. But its convinient to install windows first. Otherwise you have to reinstall grub
[03:50] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT,  the 64bit hardware or the 64bit ubutnu?
[03:50] <trism> !who | undecim
[03:50] <FiReSTaRT> ouyes: i know..  but the fan comes on when the cpu starts goin' apeshit so i know when to kill the process
[03:51] <FiReSTaRT> ouyes: 64bit ubuntu.. the plugin is really a 32bit plugin under wrapper, so its a bit buggy
[03:51] <mzawieska> pec_ar, but I already have everything on ubuntu...all my apps
[03:51] <hbsmiley7> Hey, what are some of the most useful default shortcuts in Ubuntu?
[03:51] <chris_lenz123> shit, i just delete the panel

[03:52] <catmando> Anyway, I'd like to buy a book on the subject that covers everything @ the website for it. Any suggestions?
[03:52] <FiReSTaRT> ouyes: that's weird.. well if u go under processes you'll see which one's the most power-hungry
[03:52] <keepsake> chris_lenz123: Er, hold on a second.

[03:52] <shawn146> firestart?
[03:52] <pec_ar> i think that's ok you will install grub again after installing xp
[03:52] <FiReSTaRT> ouyes: look it up and tell me
[03:52] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT, the 32bit ubuntu gets a better software support
[03:53] <pec_ar> mzawieska i think that's ok you will install grub again after installing xp

[03:54] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT,  they are changing so fast
[03:54] <shawn146> can anybody help me?
[03:54] <keepsake> mzawieska: Use qtparted to make a new partition out of free space.
[03:54] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT,  you cannot tell which is the biggest
[03:54] <pec_ar> mzawieska with the partition editor you can make a partition smaller and create another
[03:55] <wrektjet> is there a way to put passwords/locks on folders even when thers only one user
[03:55] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT,  xchat is 4%
[03:55] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT,  music player is 4%
[03:55] <FiReSTaRT> ouyes: xchat is usually nothing
[03:55] <shawn146> ?
[03:55] <shawn146> ok
[03:55] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT,  but the total is 38%

[03:56] <FiReSTaRT> ouyes: you must be running a whole lot of stuff
[03:56] <keepsake> mzawieska: Since Jaunty you're to use Partition Manager
[03:56] <keepsake> !partitionmanager | mzawieska
[03:56] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT,  no only 3
[03:57] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT,  i do install a lot of applications but i run a few at a time

[04:00] <keepsake> mzawieska: Did you close the original window that popped up?
[04:00] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT,  when you do nothing the cpu is running at  800Mhz,so the usage displayed was 38% a bit high, but when you run a few applications the cpu will be running an 2.1Ghz

[04:01] <mzawieska> keepsake, after the pw nothing showing up
[04:01] <ae86-drifter> Xfact switch to a virtual term, type top, then type kill [pid]
[04:01] <keepsake> mzawieska: In Terminal, if you type in partitionman and then TAB what do you get?
[04:01] <Wilabob> Hi guys, I'm trying to use a splash image but when I restart I get the font colour change but the background doesn't change... It seems to work when I type sudo update-grub... It says it found debian image (image name here)
[04:02] <Xfact> anyone knows any command or shortcut keys or something that helps to forcefully escape from a corrupted programs (e.g full-screen games)?
[04:02] <undecim> Wilabob: How are you going about changing the background?
[04:02] <Wilabob> undecim: The "splash screen"
[04:02] <ouyes> keepsake, you know the words zhangsam2  typeed?
[04:02] <keepsake> ouyes: Yes, of course =P
[04:02] <devunt> .kr
[04:02] <mzawieska> keepsake, if i type partiton and tab its partitionmanager
[04:03] <Xfact> ae86-drifter: yes that's sounds useful but , I am new in linux so difficult to understand, anyone can explain with easy lang?
[04:03] <undecim> Wilabob: The "splash screen" as in the glowing Ubuntu log, or before that?
[04:03] <ouyes> keepsake, how do you know ?google translation
[04:03] <Wilabob> undecim: The splash screen in GRUB
[04:03] <keepsake> ouyes: No, I'm Chinese.
[04:04] <keepsake> mzawieska: Try running "dpkg -l partitionmanager | grep /bin/"
[04:04] <ae86-drifter> Xfact, hold ctrl+alt+press f5, type top, press enter, find the PID for the process(eg 3d game), then type kill [pid] and press enter
[04:04] <Wilabob> undecim: Like this : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Splash%20Images%20&%20Theming
[04:04] <mzawieska> keepsake, done..
[04:04] <Xfact> ae86-drifter: thanks I am trying
[04:04] <keepsake> mzawieska: Any output?
[04:05] <ae86-drifter> Xfact, you will need to do ctrl alt f7 after that !! lol
[04:05] <ouyes> keepsake,  i see here are all kinds of people , quite a few chinese
[04:05] <mzawieska> keepsake, nothing showed up
[04:05] <Xfact> ae86-drifter: yea i know that thanks
[04:05] <keepsake> ouyes: Of course, this is a pretty big community, after all D=
[04:05] <mzawieska> keepsake, other program maybe I could use?
[04:05] <keepsake> mzawieska: Have you done "sudo dpkg -i partitionmanager"?
[04:05] <Xfact> ae86-drifter: i can also use ctrl+alt+F1 to run in console
[04:05] <Wilabob> undecim: I followed the instructions to change the font colour and the splash screen but only the font colour changes...
[04:05] <mzawieska> keepsake, maybe gnome partition editor
[04:06] <undecim> Wilabob: I could be wrong, but I think that Grub2 requires one of a few specific image formats. Are you using one from the package that the tutorial mentions or one of your own?
[04:06] <mzawieska> keepsake, sudo dpkg -i partitionmanager
[04:06] <ae86-drifter> Xfact u can useMOST of the "f" keys
[04:06] <keepsake> mzawieska: You can try the GNOME one if it works for you; otherwise, I'd try installing with "sudo dpkg -i partitionmanager".
[04:06] <mzawieska> keepsake, mzawieska@mzawieska-desktop:~$ dpkg -l partitionmanager | grep /bin/
[04:06] <mzawieska> mzawieska@mzawieska-desktop:~$ sudo dpkg -i partitionmanager

[04:06] <ouyes> keepsake, lunch time :)
[04:07] <keepsake> mzawieska: Don't paste the entire output here. Pastebin it if you need to paste many lines.
[04:07] <mzawieska> keepsake, oki
[04:07] <keepsake> mzawieska: Oh goodness, wrong command: "sudo apt-get install partitionmanager". It's been so long.
[04:07] <Wilabob> undecim: This is what my edited line looks like for i in {/boot/grub,/usr/share/images/desktop-base,/usr/share/images/grub}/Moraine_Lake_17092005.{png,tga} ; do
[04:07] <mzawieska> keepsake, like 20 min later the KDE partiotion manager 1.0.1 showed up
[04:08] <undecim> Wilabob: and where exactly is the image located?
[04:08] <keepsake> mzawieska: Is it in admin?
[04:08] <keepsake> mzawieska: Root/SU, I mean.
[04:08] <Xfact> ae86-drifter: most of the time when a game get corrupted then I use 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop' to stop the GDM then start it again to solve the problem, it works but also closes many of my useful desktop unsaved data :(
[04:08] <Wilabob> undecim: /usr/share/images/grub
[04:08] <mzawieska> keepsake, i see two partition /dev/sda(596GiB) and /dev/sdb(0.91 TiB
[04:09] <ae86-drifter> Xfact, ah ok, hehe
[04:09] <keepsake> mzawieska: Follow this guide: http://docs.kde.org/development/en/extragear-sysadmin/partitionmanager/howto-resizepartition.html
[04:10] <Xfact> ae86-drifter: is that safe process for my ubuntu? what you think?
[04:10] <m1k3y> hey guys
[04:10] <O__o> hi, emesene dont work whats the problem?
[04:10] <perdente> hey mikey
[04:10] <ae86-drifter> Xfact, which process? the one i told you, or the one you just told me?
[04:10] <perdente> I think he likes it!
[04:10] <undecim> Wilabob: try replacing that entire line with: "for i in /usr/share/images/grub/Moraine_Lake_17092005.{png,tga} ; do"
[04:11] <O__o> it said server doesnt support protocol
[04:11] <undecim> Wilabob: you may want to copy the original line and put it in a comment above or below the new line, just in case you need to go back to it.
[04:11] <ae86-drifter> Xfact, i wouldnt use gdm stop unless it is absolutely necessary
[04:11] <Jorge> ...
[04:11] <m1k3y> i have a quick question... everytime i have system updates i get another kernal version in my grub menu now theres like 7 different one... how can i edit that?
[04:12] <Jorge> ...
[04:12] <Xfact> ae86-drifter: ohh means it's not totally safe...
[04:12] <keepsake> O__o: Probably outdated
[04:12] <O__o> keepsake, so how to solve it?
[04:12] <Wilabob> undecim: OK, restarting
[04:13] <keepsake> O__o: You'll need to use a different program, like amsn or something.
[04:13] <ae86-drifter> Xfact, im not entireley sure, but i think it kills everything running in gnome instead of just killing that actual process
[04:13] <keepsake> O__o: Or try updating emesene
[04:13] <O__o> keepsake, how to update emsene?
[04:14] <Wilabob> undecim: No, that didn't work either..
[04:14] <keepsake> O__o: In terminal, first run "sudo apt-get update" then "sudo apt-get upgrade emesene"
[04:14] <Xfact> there any shortcut key available to run system monitor immediately?
[04:14] <mezquitale> m1k3y, if you want to get rid of the kernels the software you want to use i think it's called janitor, if not then just run grub-update
[04:14] <m1k3y> thanks man ill check now
[04:15] <Wilabob> undecim: Any other suggestions? does it have to be spaced out from the margin?
[04:15] <O__o> keepsake, doesnt work
[04:15] <O__o> keepsake, nothing to upgrade
[04:15] <mezquitale> which one is faster, ubuntu or mythbuntu?
[04:15] <Xfact> there any shortcut key available to run 'system monitor' immediately? (like in windows when software get corrupted then ctrl+alt+del, brings 'task manager' to kill the process in graphical way)
[04:15] <Out_Cold> Xfact, in system>admin>keyboard shortcuts you make your own
[04:15] <undecim> Wilabob: can I get a pastebin of your /boot/grub/grub.cfg? (after you've run "sudo update-grub")
[04:15] <keepsake> O__o: Can you check your version of emesene?
[04:16] <Wilabob> undecim: Yep one sec
[04:16] <ouyes> mezquitale, both ,it depends on your hardware
[04:16] <undecim> Wilabob: I will brb. I have to log out and back in to fix something I messed up :)
[04:17] <Xfact> anyone can tell me the command of system monitor or where to get the app 'system monitor' in my pc??
[04:17] <Out_Cold> Xfact, read what i told you ffs
[04:17] <Out_Cold> oh wait... sorry
[04:18] <ouyes> Xfact,  go to system>admi>monitor
[04:18] <Xfact> Out_Cold: yes i've read that already but in shortcut section it's asking for the command of system monitor first to add....
[04:19] <Out_Cold> he wants the command name of system monitor
[04:19] <undecim> stupid buggy ATI drivers....
[04:19] <undecim> Wilabob: Did I miss anything while I was gone just now?
[04:19] <ouyes> i donnot know
[04:19] <O__o> emesene 1.0.1
[04:19] <Wilabob> undecim: nope
[04:19] <ouyes> you miss a lot of lines
[04:19] <Xfact> I think this is the proper command of system monitor '/usr/bin/checkbox-gtk'
[04:20] <Wilabob> undecim: Here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/355331/
[04:20] <Out_Cold> Xfact, that's not it
[04:20] <O__o> keepsake, emesene 1.0.1
[04:21] <keepsake> O__o: The latest version is now 1.6.
[04:21] <Xfact> out_cold: sorry i think this one 'gnome-system-monitor'
[04:21] <O__o> how to update it?
[04:21] <Out_Cold> yes
[04:21] <Out_Cold> gnome-system-monitor
[04:21] <Xfact> YES it was right...
[04:22] <alexandros> anybody online?
[04:22] <Alf_Stewart> ive installed ubuntu on a usb drive but when it boots up theres a error message that says something about no boot partition or something can someone help?
[04:22] <Out_Cold> Xfact, you don't need the /usr/bin/ in fron of it either... it looks there by default
[04:22] <keepsake> O__o: Go here, and download the file somewhere: http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/all/emesene/download
[04:22] <Alf_Stewart> and then it halts on the screen
[04:22] <alexandros> ubuntu  9.10   is  beta  edition or not?
[04:22] <keepsake> O__o: Next, browse to where you found the file, and then do "sudo dpkg -i emesene_1.5-1ubuntu1_all.deb"
[04:22] <Out_Cold> alexandros, not beta
[04:22] <keepsake> alexandros: Karmic is out.
[04:22] <jarlath> Alf_Stewart, I had the same problem. There was a bug on launchpad about it but I don't think it's resolved yet.
[04:23] <alexandros> ubuntu  9.10   is  beta  edition or not?
[04:23] <alexandros> ubuntu  9.10   is  beta  edition or not?
[04:23] <alexandros> ubuntu  9.10   is  beta  edition or not?
[04:23] <FloodBot1> alexandros: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:23] <Out_Cold> stupid troll
[04:23] <Alf_Stewart> jarlath ahh i see
[04:23] <keepsake> alexandros: Ubuntu 9.10 is out of beta.
[04:23] <Xfact> Out_Cold: I've just clicked on the icon then properties  then the command was there
[04:23] <Wilabob> undecim: See anything?
[04:23] <mzawieska> keepsake, which file system is preferable for xp fat 16 or fat 32?
[04:23] <jarlath> Alf_Stewart, it's a shame. It sounds like a great feature.
[04:23] <undecim> Wilabob: Okay, let's edit grub.cgf directly for a moment so that this is only a temporary change (i.e will be undone with update-grub), but can you change the colors in likes 46 and 47 of your grub.cfg file to something else? This will tell us if grub is reading your image or not.
[04:23] <Out_Cold> Xfact, i googled system monitor and cross refferenced it with ubuntu lol
[04:23] <keepsake> mzawieska: NTFS, if you can. Otherwise, FAT32.
[04:24] <Alf_Stewart> i think it has something to do with grub
[04:24] <Xfact> alexandros: it's released as stable but I think it's 'still not totally stable' like beta....
[04:24] <Xfact> lol
[04:24] <keepsake> Xfact: The 10 stands for October, so it's been out for months now =P
[04:24] <Alf_Stewart> i think when i installed linux i unchecked the box in the installation screen for installing a boot loader on the usb drive i think that might be why..can anyone confirm this?
[04:24] <Out_Cold> Xfact, there are always bugs when people modify the OS to their liking.... if everything worked perfect people would get charged to use ubuntu
[04:24] <Wilabob> undecim: Okay so what do you want me to do exactly?
[04:24] <undecim> Wilabob: For example, replace "set color_normal=light-green/green" with something like "set color_normal=red/blue", then restart and see if you see the color change in grub.
[04:25] <keepsake> Alf_Stewart: Of course. If you don't have the bootloader... you can't load Ubuntu =P
[04:25] <Alf_Stewart> damn it :)
[04:25] <O__o> keepsake, error
[04:25] <undecim> Wilabob: but don't change the lines with "menu_color" in them.
[04:25] <Wilabob> undecim: okay one sec
[04:25] <Alf_Stewart> fresh install here we come :P
[04:25] <tcarter> Any one know much abou nvidia geforce graphics card installation
[04:25] <jarlath> Alf_Stewart, I'm sorry - I thought you were talking about the USB creator.
[04:25] <keepsake> O__o: What's the error?
[04:25] <O__o> keepsake, something like python not support
[04:25] <keepsake> Alf_Stewart: Haha, good luck!
[04:25] <Alf_Stewart> jarlath no problems :)
[04:25] <Out_Cold> tcarter, ask and if we do, you'll get an answer
[04:26] <keepsake> O__o: Ick, python isn't installed.
[04:26] <O__o> keepsake, error: dependency is not satisfiable: python-support
[04:26] <O__o> keepsake, i have python
[04:26] <keepsake> O__o: Run "sudo apt-get install python python-cairo python-gobject python-gtk2 python-support"
[04:26] <Xfact> well, Ubuntu promise it'll be free forever, and people always expect perfect product in this time, and ubuntu 9.10 is not that stable as compare to other version till 8.04
[04:27] <Out_Cold> O__o, if it requires python 3 you may break a lot of older python dependent apps
[04:27] <O__o> then i may just forget it and install amsn to try
[04:27] <keepsake> Out_Cold, O__o: It doesn't require python3
[04:27] <tcarter> I am trying to run the installer for my nividia graphics card. when i run   **sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx the** i am asked to specify one of 4 diff types and i don't know the difference between them? Any ideas
[04:27] <keepsake> Out_Cold, O__o: At least, I don't think it does >>
[04:28] <Xfact> 9.10 doing lots of tik tak toe problems on my computer but I am still happy because it's awesome!
[04:28] <keepsake> O__o: Try just "sudo apt-get install python-support"
[04:28] <Out_Cold> not sure.. but after installing python3 and symlinking it to /usr/bin/python i almost broke my system..
[04:28] <O__o> keepsake, installing amsn wait
[04:28] <keepsake> Out_Cold: I'm pretty sure the one in the repos is still 2.6.4 >>
[04:29] <Out_Cold> yea... they haven't added 3 i don't think
[04:29] <Out_Cold> for good reasons too
[04:29] <jarlath> Xfact, I'm convinced that the stability of Ubuntu depends completely on what hardware you're running. It works really well for me. I've had no crashes.. yet.
[04:29] <keepsake> Out_Cold: Yup, look
[04:29] <keepsake> !info python
[04:29] <O__o> keepsake, amsn works
[04:30] <O__o> but where is the shortcut?
[04:30] <Wilabob> undecim: No that didn't do anything but to change the colour I had to edit the menu lines before
[04:30] <keepsake> O__o: Make one =P
[04:30] <Out_Cold> jarlath, i crash all the time.. but my motto is " if you don't break your ubuntu box, you aren't trying hard enough"
[04:30] <tcarter> no one has any idea about the nvidia question?
[04:30] <undecim> Wilabob: Okay, that means that Grub doesn't like your image file.
[04:30] <Out_Cold> tcarter, what card?
[04:30] <keepsake> O__o: Otherwise, isn't it in Internet or something?
[04:31] <tcarter> gt 2203
[04:31] <O__o> keepsake, its not there
[04:31] <tcarter> gt220
[04:31] <keepsake> O__o: Do you want one in menu or on desktop?
[04:31] <Wilabob> undecim: so... why would they include an image that it didn't like?
[04:31] <O__o> i have amsn long time ago, it should be in internet but this time it is not there
[04:31] <O__o> of course in the meny
[04:31] <devero> yo can anyone help me with a webcam problem ?
[04:31] <O__o> menu
[04:31] <Out_Cold> tcarter, and you don't know which number to install??
[04:31] <undecim> Wilabob: can you make sure that /usr/share/grub/unicode.pf2 exists?
[04:32] <jarlath> Out_Cold, yikes - that's a real pity. Was it like that on clean install or have you just been 'playing' with it :)
[04:32] <Xfact> in 9.10 After installing in update manager it showing I can update my 'gdm' and it's related files' but after updateing on next restart ether, my gnome desktop unavailable or the screen and all the lights  of my computer flickering horribly! (scary) thats a big problem :( I am still unknown to the reason... and my hardware is probably 1 yrs old...
[04:32] <keepsake> O__o: Go into the menu editor and try adding "amsn"
[04:32] <O__o> got it
[04:32] <Out_Cold> jarlath, i always play.... mind you that's the beauty of ubuntu.... on fresh installs i never have issues
[04:33] <tcarter> out-cold, well i downloaded a driver from nividia ffor my card but cant run the .run file. when i use the terminal i can't tell which of the for it's askig me about to install
[04:33] <Wilabob> undecim: Yes, it does.
[04:33] <jarlath> Out_Cold, ah ok.
[04:33] <keepsake> tcarter: How are you running it?
[04:33] <Out_Cold> tcarter, wrong way to go about it for a noob..... go to a terminal and type sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-185
[04:33] <Xfact> anyone can access my desktop through remote desktop?
[04:34] <tcarter> the one i have from nvidia...just clicking on the file
[04:34] <jarlath> Xfact, that's a pity. I've stuck with Ubuntu because it's always run well for me on my laptops / desktop. But if I was experiencing intermittent trouble I'm sure I'd loose it!
[04:34] <keepsake> tcarter: You'll need do "sudo sh /path/to/file"
[04:34] <undecim> Wilabob: Then other then the possibility that grub simply CANNOT read that image, I see no reason why it shouldn't display.
[04:34] <tcarter> out_cold, got it...i'll give it a try
[04:34] <LinuX2half> how do I know if I can run an 64 bit operating system?
[04:35] <Out_Cold> tcarter, you can also run the script call that keepsake offered
[04:35] <keepsake> LinuX2half: Well, are you in ubuntu/linux right now?
[04:35] <Wilabob> so I should move it to the default grub image location?
[04:35] <Out_Cold> LinuX2half, do you have a 64 bit processor?
[04:35] <tcarter> out_cold, thanks
[04:35] <LinuX2half> How could I check?
[04:35] <Out_Cold> LinuX2half, are you in ubuntu?
[04:35] <keepsake> LinuX2half: If you're in linux, "sudo cat /proc/cpuinfo" then pastebin the output
[04:36] <LinuX2half> Yes I'm running Ubuntu
[04:36] <undecim> Wilabob: will your reolution go as small as 640x480?
[04:36] <undecim> Wilabob: use the "xrandr" command to list available video modes.
[04:37] <LinuX2half> Out_Cold, keepsake: http://www.ubuntu.pastebin.com/d5e49384d
[04:37] <Wilabob> undecim: Yeah, it will.
[04:37] <Wilabob> undecim: Why?
[04:37] <keepsake> LinuX2half: I don't think you can go 64-bit on that.
[04:37] <Out_Cold> i'm still loading.... bandwidth is buggered today
[04:37] <LinuX2half> keepsake: really? So I can only run 32 bits?
[04:38] <undecim> Wilabob: Because if grub can't get into gfxterm mode, it won't display a background.
[04:38] <Out_Cold> LinuX2half, most definitely 32 bit lol
[04:38] <keepsake> LinuX2half: Yeah, but to be honest, 32-bit isn't really a big disadvantage or something.
[04:38] <zig_> Oops, sorry.
[04:38] <ghufran> hi .. i need some help .. i have 9.1 64 bit installed on my system and suddenly wireless has stopped working (it was working fine earlier) .. also i added some programs in my startup .. they no longer run at startup
[04:39] <ghufran> how can i resolve this?
[04:39] <LinuX2half> keepsake: why? I thought 64 bit can handle intense cpu level
[04:39] <Out_Cold> LinuX2half, 64 bit just uses memory more efficiently when it can
[04:39] <tcarter> out_cold, when i ran the script call that keepsake mentioned i got a blue screen that said:     ERROR: nvidia-installer must be run as root
[04:39] <Out_Cold> tcarter, so run sudo sh
[04:39] <keepsake> LinuX2half: It can, there are issues with compatibility and such; for common users 32-bit is easier.
[04:40] <Out_Cold> tcarter, which was in his script call
[04:40] <tcarter> out_cold, I did
[04:40] <kaiser2011> hello everyone. I just installed ubuntu 64 bit on my laptop. I had something to ask regarding sound
[04:40] <Out_Cold> tcarter, can you past the command?
[04:40] <LinuX2half> keepsake: so then 32 bit have fewer issue than 64 bits?
[04:40] <tcarter> out_cold,sh /path/to/file
[04:40] <keepsake> tcarter: "sudo sh /path/to/file"
[04:40] <scott_ino2> keepsake, might have been the case years ago, but ive found that 64-bit is pretty much on par with 32-bit at this point
[04:40] <Out_Cold> tcarter, sudo sh /path to file
[04:41] <keepsake> scott_ino2: While that may be true, there are still a lot of programs that need wrappers =\
[04:41] <tcarter> out_cold, ok let me see
[04:41] <scott_ino2> keepsake, such as?
[04:41] <keepsake> LinuX2half: Generally speaking it's like that.
[04:41] <Wilabob> undecim: Any suggestions?
[04:41] <undecim> Wilabob: Care for another reboot?
[04:41] <keepsake> scott_ino2: Well, the last time I used Ubuntu, Flash was wrapped, and some other things like webcams. I dunno how it's changed since then though.
[04:41] <jarlath> LinuX2half, it's faster for processor intensive stuff like 3D rendering (Blender) and such. But your normal desktop experience won't be noticably faster.
[04:42] <scott_ino2> keepsake, flash has been native 64-bit player and libraries for well over a year now :)
[04:42] <Wilabob> undecim: Sure.
[04:42] <undecim> Wilabob: 1 sec...
[04:42] <nomnex> SMPayer, when I watch a movie the screen dim to black after 10 min.
[04:42] <keepsake> scott_ino2: Flash 10? Damn, it's been long.
[04:42] <jarlath> LinuX2half, there's a performance test done here comparing 32bit and 64bit ubuntu http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=ubuntu_32_pae&num=1%22
[04:42] <scott_ino2> keepsake, yeah honestly flash and java id agree with you, but they're solid now.
[04:42] <tcarter> out_cold, does this look right:       sh /home/tcarter/Desktop/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-190.53-pkg2.run
[04:43] <Out_Cold> tcarter, where is sudo??
[04:43] <Out_Cold> sudo sh
[04:43] <LinuX2half> jarlath: thanks for the information.
[04:43] <mezimezim> I
[04:43] <mezimezim> Hi
[04:43] <jarlath> LinuX2half, np
[04:43] <LinuX2half> keepsake, Out_cold; thanks
[04:43] <chu_> gday, mezimezim.
[04:43] <mzawieska> is there a way to install photoshop cs4 on ubuntu 9?
[04:43] <titan_ark> Hey, could anyone help me out on restarting powerdaemon?
[04:43] <tcarter> out_cold, aha....gottcha
[04:43] <keepsake> scott_ino2: That's great =P I'm planning a switch back =P
[04:44] <scott_ino2> from?
[04:44] <keepsake> scott_ino2: I'm running W7 atm.
[04:44] <titan_ark> Everytime my notebook goes into sleep mode, it then says there is no battery
[04:44] <mezimezim> I have a language issue in Ubuntu: I have a french version of it and some programs are not in French anymore (ubuntu9.10) any idea?
[04:44] <keepsake> mzawieska: Check appdb
[04:44] <undecim> Wilabob: Okay, the menu_color lines you edited earlier... Can you past a copy of the after the line " if terminal_output gfxterm ; then true ; else ", and change the colors on them again?
[04:44] <Out_Cold> !tab > Out_Cold
[04:44] <keepsake> !appdb | mezimezim
[04:44] <undecim> Wilabob: Wait, that was a stupid suggestion....
[04:44] <mezimezim> these are : Epiphany, Xchat, Gnucash, all well integrated in gnome, there might be a link
[04:44] <mzawieska> keepsake, appdb?
[04:44] <scott_ino2> keepsake, honestly the last year and a half has been RAPID development, I remember just two years ago the work I had to do to get wireless working, now pretty much 90 percent of the new hardware out there works
[04:44] <jamiejackson> i've got a problem upgrading my kernel: http://jamiejackson.pastebin.com/fd45622 "dpkg: error processing linux-image-2.6.31-17-generic (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1" <= can you help me fix?
[04:45] <Wilabob> undecim: Let me reboot, Im trying something
[04:45] <keepsake> scott_ino2: Good thing I've been using ethernet cables for a few years now =P
[04:45] <tcarter> out_cold, how do i exit X server
[04:45] <undecim> Wilabob: instead of copying them, just cut-and-paste them there, and see if the color disappears.
[04:45] <mezimezim> someone should kick ubottu out!
[04:45] <mezimezim> I never asked for MS advertisement!
[04:45] <keepsake> scott_ino2: I've been running karmic since one of the alphas, I believe. It was not that great back then =P
[04:45] <Out_Cold> tcarter, you need to either reboot or go ctrl+alt+f1, log in the restart gdm
[04:46] <meowbuntu> anyone like linuxmint os
[04:46] <chu_> I believe the appdb message was meant for mzawieska, keepsake mistakingly read his name as yours.
[04:46] <keepsake> mezimezim: If you want to run Photoshop in Ubuntu, you'll need to WINE the Windows version.
[04:46] <Out_Cold> **then "restart gdm"
[04:46] <Wilabob> ok, thing is I'm writing this on my macbook...
[04:46] <LinuX2half> I want to also ask if its possible to update your BIOS?
[04:46] <Wilabob> undecim: ok, thing is I'm writing this on my macbook...
[04:46] <Xfact> keepsake: photoshop like heavy program can run on WINE?
[04:46] <mzawieska> chu_, what is appdb?
[04:46] <Out_Cold> LinuX2half, i don't think that has anything to do with the OS
[04:46] <keepsake> Xfact: I used to run PS CS2 using Wine, and it worked perfectly fine.
[04:46] <chu_> !appdb | mzawieska
[04:47] <mezimezim> I know that! But why would ubottu start telling me about Wine 30 sec after I joind the forum?
[04:47] <Xfact> probably application database
[04:47] <keepsake> chu_, mezimezim: You're right, chu_, I mistabbed to mezimezim instead of mzawieska =P
[04:47] <scott_ino2> Xfact, should work fine in wine, the google guys made sure that's one of the programs that works pretty darn well
[04:47] <Vantrax> tabfail:P
[04:47] <LinuX2half> Out_cold: its not actually....but probably I'll found some information from my manufacturer
[04:47] <scott_ino2> since it was the number1 most requested
[04:47] <Voss> I was registering with publishers clearing house, and they asked me what operating system I had and it actually had a choice for linux!
[04:47] <scott_ino2> YESsss
[04:48] <scott_ino2> Voss, yes!
[04:48] <titan_ark> hey any idea on how to restart a daemon? n00b here!
[04:48] <keepsake> titan_ark: "A" daemon? Which one?
[04:48] <titan_ark> power management says i have no battery everytime my notebook goes into sleep
[04:48] <Out_Cold> LinuX2half, your bios is specific to the MB... even if you modify/change/erase the OSs your bios is self sufficient
[04:48] <titan_ark> so i want to restart powerdevil
[04:48] <jamiejackson> titan_ark "sudo /etc/init.d/<daemonName> restart" <= this is how i restart most of them
[04:49] <chu_> Holy!!! keepsake... are you using irssi? I had no idea it supported tabbed completion of nicknames.. That's beautiful.
[04:49] <Out_Cold> Voss is gonna win the $1 000 000
[04:49] <Xfact>  keepsake:  maybe then you have hi fi hardware, in my pc google talk like lite app doesn't work on WINE but I have 9.10 with latest version of WINE installed... :(
[04:49] <scott_ino2> LinuX2half, I don't know the name of it but there's a native linux program,process under development that can flash new bios
[04:49] <keepsake> chu_: I'm using mIRC =P
[04:49] <scott_ino2> that works for certain motherboards
[04:49] <Voss> Its 10 million now ;-)
[04:49] <LinuX2half> Well thanks anyway guys
[04:49] <keepsake> Xfact: It isn't perfect, but yeah, Photoshop CS2 runs well on my comp.
[04:50] <gotsanity-book> is there any way to check what chipset of touchpad I am using?
[04:50] <Xfact> nice
[04:50] <titan_ark> jamiejackson: it says command not found!
[04:50] <keepsake> titan_ark: What did you run?
[04:50] <titan_ark> jamiejackson: sudo: /etc/init.d/powerdevil: command not found
[04:50] <nomnex> how do I know if I can run a ubuntu 64 on my notebook?
[04:50] <jamiejackson> titan_ark: remove the colon after sudo
[04:50] <Out_Cold> nomnex, try a 64 bit live cd
[04:51] <titan_ark> jamiejackson, keepsake: sudo /etc/init.d/powerdevil restart
[04:51] <titan_ark> is what i ran
[04:51] <nomnex> Out_Cold, forgive the question but all the apps like Open Office are compatible 64?
[04:51] <keepsake> titan_ark: See if "power-devil" works
[04:51] <keepsake> nomnex: Of course.
[04:51] <Out_Cold> not all but almost... i am pretty sure open office is
[04:51] <mzawieska> anything similar that runs on ubuntu 9 to photoshop for website development?
[04:51] <jamiejackson> titan_ark: you can also let it tab complete sudo /etc/init.d/pow...
[04:51] <titan_ark> keepsake: same thing!
[04:52] <Out_Cold> mzawieska, tried gimp??
[04:52] <Wilabob> undecim: I can't seem to find this line if terminal_output gfxterm ; then true ; else
[04:52] <dtb> hey all - how does `sudo` remember that you've already typed your password in? ie: using sudo multiple times in a row only prompts first time for password.
[04:52] <scott_ino2> nomnex, that's one of the strong features of linux, pretty much everything has a 64 bit version
[04:52] <jamiejackson> if not, i dunno how.
[04:52] <infid> mzawieska:  photoshop isnt for web dev, maybe web design
[04:52] <jarlath> nomnex, when you install the Ubuntu 64 desktop you get the full install, same as 32 bit, with all those applications.
[04:52] <mzawieska> yupp i mean for web design
[04:52] <Out_Cold> dtb, there is a 10 minute timeout
[04:52] <nomnex> scott_ino2, all, great, got to try it. thanks
[04:52] <mzawieska> so anything closed to photoshop?
[04:52] <tcarter> out_cold, ok i rebooted but get the same message...what did you mean about logging in gdm
[04:52] <Xfact> 'gdm' and 'gdm-setting-daemon' messing my pc when I am updating...any way to get back my pc same as before if gdm does any bad stuff with my pc... (like in windows 'system restore')
[04:52] <Xfact> ?
[04:52] <undecim> Wilabob: Line 27 in grub.cfg, right after insmod gfterm and insmod vbe
[04:53] <titan_ark> jamiejackson: damn, power devil doesnt come up in the list
[04:53] <xod> hi,
[04:53] <keepsake> mzawieska: GIMP or something
[04:53] <NFischer> Hi all, how do i stream music through my LAN?! i just set up an gnump3d Server but i dont want a on-demand server but rather an LAN-Radio cahnnel in which i can arbitrarily tune in..
[04:53] <Out_Cold> tcarter, what's the error??
[04:53] <xod> how do i play AAC files on exaile?
[04:53] <scott_ino2> mzawieska, GIMP is "similar" to photoshop, I came from photoshop and can now pretty much do everythign i could there in gimp
[04:53] <xod> it seems that there's no codec for it available in package manager?
[04:53] <scott_ino2> however... it will take some time to learn a new program
[04:53] <undecim> Wilabob: actually, I have a better idea than rebooting.
[04:53] <Out_Cold> mzawieska, gimp is the closest gnu app to PS
[04:53] <scott_ino2> mzawieska, but gimp is VERY powerful just like photoshop once you learn it
[04:53] <keepsake> scott_ino2: Personally I'd just Wine it =P
[04:53] <tcarter> out_cold, you must be running an X server...you must exit X
[04:53] <scott_ino2> keepsake, i like open source
[04:53] <mzawieska> scott_ino2, u can cut off too and do it to be able to work with dreamweaver
[04:53] <Wilabob> undecim: OK, shoot
[04:53] <undecim> You said you are chatting with your macbook, rather than the computer we are troubleshooting, correct?
[04:54] <Wilabob> undecim: Yeah
[04:54] <keepsake> scott_ino2: There's also GimpShop which emulates a PS environment.
[04:54] <scott_ino2> mzawieska, slices?
[04:54] <Out_Cold> tcarter, you need to install via command line then....
[04:54] <undecim> Wilabob: Go to the command line from the grub menu (ctrl+c, I believe)
[04:54] <scott_ino2> mzawieska, also google Pixel32
[04:54] <Out_Cold> tcarter, got another computer to chat on??
[04:54] <Wilabob> undecim: OK
[04:54] <mzawieska> scott_ino2, so which one do u recommend?
[04:54] <undecim> Wilabob: let me know when you're there.
[04:54] <tcarter> out_cold, no just this one
[04:55] <Wilabob> undecim: K
[04:55] <keepsake> scott_ino2, mzawieska: Pixel is not open source, and costs $3x. Use GIMP if you want a starter program.
[04:55] <Out_Cold> tcarter, well.... you get that error when you try to run the sudo sh command??
[04:55] <scott_ino2> mzawieska, GIMP can probably do everything you want, however like photoshop, it's a complex program and takes time to master. so depends on how patient you are.
[04:55] <Wilabob> undecim: Im here
[04:55] <scott_ino2> keepsake, i know just letting him know options
[04:55] <tcarter> out_cold, yes
[04:55] <LinuX2half> Good night...
[04:55] <Out_Cold> tcarter, well get your pen and paper ready then...
[04:55] <jamiejackson> oh well, titan_ark, it's not turning up in google?
[04:56] <mzawieska> scott_ino2, thank you :)
[04:56] <undecim> Wilabob: okay, type "terminal_output" and tell me what you get.
[04:56] <jarlath> Good night LinuX2half.
[04:56] <scott_ino2> mzawieska, np, honestly i hated gimp at first coming from 5+years of photoshop, now it's all I use
[04:56] <Wilabob> undecim: gfxterm *console
[04:56] <scott_ino2> but i also took the time to learn it
[04:56] <chu_> GIMP is moving to a single interface on their next major release, maybe you'll want to look into GIMPShop until then? I don't know, learning the multiple window approach to GIMP and then having it changed on you the next version seems a bit silly.
[04:56] <titan_ark> jamiejackson: i got the same way to do it for restarting processes. just checking up on powerdevil now
[04:57] <tcarter> out_cold, got it
[04:57] <undecim> Wilabob: type lsmod, and look for "vbe", and "tga" modules in the list.
[04:57] <scott_ino2> chu_, they're seriously doing that? wow can't believe they'd do that after all these years saying how they didnt want a to be a photoshop clone
[04:57] <keepsake> scott_ino2: I won't deny that Pixel looks amazing though
[04:57] <scott_ino2> keepsake, i tried it roughly 2-3 years ago
[04:57] <scott_ino2> it's not bad... honestly id just rather use gimp at this point now
[04:57] <keepsake> scott_ino2: If you get used to it/if you support GNU, it's of course the better option =P
[04:57] <NFischer> Hi all, how do i stream music through my LAN?! i just set up an gnump3d Server but i dont want a on-demand server but rather an LAN-Radio cahnnel in which i can arbitrarily tune in..
[04:58] <scott_ino2> keepsake, i have no issue with close sourced software really, other than the fact that it usually wont run on linux
[04:58] <Wilabob> undecim: How do I go up? a bunch a code covered the screen and I don't see those things.
[04:58] <jarlath> Hows Krita coming along these days? It was showing promise last time I checked - about two years ago.
[04:58] <undecim> Wilabob: Shift + Page Up?
[04:58] <keepsake> scott_ino2: That's true. Pixel is also one of the few pay-to-use software I've seen on Linux, although, I have stuck with mostly GNU/freeware.
[04:58] <Out_Cold> 1. ctrl+alt+f1  2. log in  3. sudo stop gdm 4. sudo sh /path/to/file 5. sudo reboot
[04:58] <chu_> scott_ino2: http://www.chromecode.com/2009/10/single-window-mode-progress-report.html
[04:58] <Wilabob> undecim: nope
[04:58] <Out_Cold> ** tcarter ^^
[04:58] <undecim> Wilabob: this could be a problem...
[04:58] <scott_ino2> chu_, thanks for the link
[04:58] <tcarter> out_cold, i am ready
[04:59] <Wilabob> undecim: ...lol
[04:59] <Out_Cold> tcarter, 1. ctrl+alt+f1  2. log in  3. sudo stop gdm 4. sudo sh /path/to/file 5. sudo reboot
[04:59] <undecim> Wilabob: try "set gfxmode=1024x768" and see if that changes your resolution in grub.
[04:59] <philyaw> I did something with themes on Kubuntu and bam, my keyboard didn't work anymore and the bar above windows disappeared to where I couldn't close anything again.  I'm about to uninstall if this doesn't seem familiar to anyone.
[04:59] <titan_ark> jamiejackson: is it possible to check the version using the version command?
[04:59] <chu_> The single or multiple window interface will be optional. Interesting. Might as well start learning GIMP now :p
[04:59] <scott_ino2> chu_, optional i see :)
[04:59] <titan_ark> it gives the same error
[05:00] <matelot> ? can someone tell me how to burn mp3 to CD to be played on ordinary cd player ?
[05:00] <geitenneuker> burp
[05:00] <scott_ino2> chu_, take the time to learn it, like really learn it. I can pretty much do everything i could with photoshop at this point
[05:00] <Wilabob> undecim: no, maybe that's the resolution im in?
[05:00] <scott_ino2> chu_, i still hate how they do text though:)
[05:00] <Out_Cold> matelot, try installing k3b
[05:00] <tcarter> out_cold, thanks i'll be back shortley
[05:00] <undecim> Wilabob: Aright, try "terminal console" and the "terminal gfxterm" to change your resolution
[05:00] <keepsake> scott_ino2: PS had a nice text-manipulation engine =P
[05:01] <Out_Cold> tcarter, good luck ;)
[05:01] <matelot> Out_Cold, can Brasero do it ?
[05:01] <scott_ino2> keepsake, not just that, even making edits to text layers is overly complicated with gimp
[05:01] <mcnellis> I'm commanding sudo kill -9 PID but it won't kill my process ... is there something else i need to do?
[05:01] <Out_Cold> matelot, never tried.... but i'll check now for you
[05:01] <keepsake> scott_ino2: What about Pixel?
[05:02] <Wilabob> undecim: It says unknown command "terminal"
[05:02] <Out_Cold> matelot, the first option "create traditional cd" in brasero sould do it
[05:02] <scott_ino2> keepsake, what about it?
[05:02] <scott_ino2> keepsake, i actually still have my code for pixel, i should try it again.
[05:02] <matelot> Out_Cold, ah yes, try it now thanks
[05:02] <keepsake> scott_ino2: You have the source?
[05:03] <undecim> Wilabob: Okay, grub is just being a pain now.... Try "rmmod tga" and "rmmod vbe"
[05:03] <scott_ino2> keepsake, let me see if my login still works, i don't think they gave out .src
[05:03] <Out_Cold> mcnellis, what are you trying to kill?? you replace PID with a number
[05:03] <keepsake> scott_ino2: Ah, I see what you mean.
[05:03] <Wilabob> undecim: rmmod tga works but rmmod vbe says no such module
[05:03] <mcnellis> Yeah Out_Cold the specific PID is 9805, just didn't include that in my message lol
[05:04] <undecim> Wilabob: that's likely the problem then.
[05:04] <mcnellis> so my command was sudo kill -9 9805 but the process won't die
[05:04] <mcnellis> it's a firefox process
[05:04] <Wilabob> undecim: anyway of fixing it?
[05:04] <Out_Cold> mcnellis, try this in terminal: ps aux | grep your_app (like wine)
[05:04] <undecim> Wilabob: 1 sec...
[05:05] <undecim> Wilabob: I need to figure out exactly what vbe does.
[05:05] <mcnellis> yeah Out_Cold that's what I used to to find the PID and verify that it's still running after I did "kill -9 9805"
[05:05] <FiReSTaRT> undecim: sudo killall process_name
[05:05] <undecim> Wilabob: I know it's involved in graphics, but that's the extent of my knowledge on it... brb, google.
[05:05] <Out_Cold> mcnellis, i think that one from FiReSTaRT was for you
[05:06] <akio> I am using Lucid, but I imagine there is more help here as #ubuntu+1 seems pretty dead right now
[05:06] <mcnellis> yeah I tried that too FiReSTaRT used sudo killall firefox
[05:06] <mcnellis> still won't die :|
[05:06] <unop> mcnellis, what's the state of the process as per 'ps aux' ?
[05:06] <akio> keyboard doen't work in X, touchpad does - after safe-upgrade this happened
[05:06] <akio> I imagine it has to do with hal removal
[05:07] <mcnellis> unop: me      9805  2.0  5.6 983716 215592 ?       D    12:59  10:06 /usr/lib/firefox-3.5.5/firefox
[05:07] <Guest84798>  /nick chri5
[05:08] <Out_Cold> what state is D?
[05:08] <undecim> Wilabob: Try changing that "insmod vbe" to "insmod vga" in the config file.
[05:08] <unop> mcnellis, state D indicate "Uninterruptible sleep (usually IO)" -- meaning that the process is waiting for some suspended IO to complete, things like a hung disk access, network, etc
[05:08] <NFischer> Hi all, how do i stream music through my LAN?! i just set up an gnump3d Server but i dont want a on-demand server but rather an LAN-Radio cahnnel in which i can arbitrarily tune in..
[05:08] <UpgradeOrNot> Hey everyone. I've been thinking about upgrading to 9.10 from 9.04 for a while. Anyone have any specific reasons I should upgrade?
[05:08] <Wilabob> undecim: Okay just startin
[05:08] <X-722> Anyone here run ubuntu on an asus eee?
[05:08] <DrManhattan> why not?
[05:08] <mcnellis> interesting unop ... is there anything i cna do to kill the process? I don't know why it's still running i don't have a window open i just see the process running when i run ps aux
[05:09] <usser> NFischer, icecast is one option
[05:09] <Out_Cold> mcnellis, try a reboot?
[05:09] <undecim> X-722: I set up an eee for my sister.
[05:09] <Wilabob> undecim: Where do I find that in the file?
[05:09] <FiReSTaRT> UpgradeOrNot: if all of your hardware is working properly under 9.04, stick with it.. 9.10 was more unstable i.m.e.
[05:09] <mcnellis> damn I was hoping that wouldn't be my only option but it seems it is :(
[05:09] <X-722> undecim: Do you recall which model it was?
[05:09] <mcnellis> such a pain to launch all my programs again lol
[05:10] <Out_Cold> i think that kill has an option to get rid of it... but not sure which one
[05:10] <undecim> Wilabob: /boot/grub/grub.cfg  If this fix works, we will need to edit other files to make it work after update-grub though.
[05:10] <Wilabob> undecim: what line?
[05:10] <NFischer> usser, yeah, looks nice, thx!
[05:10] <FiReSTaRT> UpgradeOrNot: the only reason i didn't revert to jaunty was that karmic fixed my suspend and got my built-in mic working
[05:10] <undecim> Wilabob: 26
[05:10] <Wilabob> undecim: nvm
[05:10] <geitenneuker> is there a upnp client available to read DLNA stuff from WMP or such stuff?
[05:10] <unop> mcnellis, Out_Cold - you cannot kill a process in state D -- you'll have to wait it out or fix the IO problem
[05:10] <braintorch> Hi. Does anybody know how to fix ps cutting process' names in terminal?
[05:10] <UpgradeOrNot> FiReSTaRT: One thing me and another user have found is that when 9.10 is loading, that loading bar seems to make it seem slower. :P
[05:11] <undecim> X-722: It was a 900 model. 901A, I believe.
[05:11] <unop> mcnellis, what was firefox doing before you attempted to kill it?
[05:11] <geitenneuker> i thougnt T3000
[05:11] <Out_Cold> lol mcnellis reboot
[05:11] <FiReSTaRT> UpgradeOrNot: i've also experienced slower boot and buggy gnome (a couple of applets crapped out on me)
[05:11] <UpgradeOrNot> FiRtSTaRT: Yeah I think I'll just stay with 9.04 for now. Thanks.
[05:11] <X-722> undecim: Everything install ok on it?
[05:11] <X-722> I mean, everything work after install?
[05:11] <Wilabob> undecim: nothing happened
[05:12] <mcnellis> unop: not sure I had just closed firefox before and when I came back to my comp i tried to open it again and got the message that it was still running so I used ps aux | grep firefox and here i am trying to kill it heh
[05:12] <Wilabob> undecim: Any other suggestion? I have to go soon
[05:12] <mcnellis> i guess it just never properly closed the window?
[05:12] <undecim> X-722: Yeah. Even wireless worked out of the box.
[05:12] <jonas3> good day
[05:12] <X-722> undecim: Thank you
[05:12] <unop> mcnellis, and did you do a kill -9 right off the bat?
[05:12] <FiReSTaRT> UpgradeOrNot: good choice.. i loved jaunty but still had those pet peeves.. had to carry around an extra mic and couldn't suspend first thing in the morning
[05:12] <mcnellis> no tried killall firefox first
[05:13] <FiReSTaRT> i mean resume
[05:13] <mcnellis> it was in state D from the beginning though
[05:13] <undecim> Wilabob: I have no idea. other than the fact that the vbe module isn't there, I don't see any reason it wouldn't work, but the vga module should have worked.
[05:13] <unop> mcnellis, can you open another instance of firefox?
[05:13] <Wilabob> undecim: Damn... I g2g then. Thanks for your help again.
[05:14] <mcnellis> unop: only if I launch with the profile manager and use a dif profile
[05:14] <x_> is there a program or terminal code to figure out how hot is my cpu fan?
[05:14] <UpgradeOrNot> FiReSTaRT: I remember trying 9.10 a while ago but I didn't like the theme and some of the apps crashed on me. But luckily I have support for all of my hardware, if I ever decided to upgrade in the future.
[05:14] <jonas3> sorry to ask about this (noob here) but i'm having trouble installing my samsung printer on jaunty...can anyone help?
[05:14] <unop> mcnellis, strange, guess a reboot is imminent then - it's probably the only thing you can do
[05:15] <FiReSTaRT> UpgradeOrNot: exactly.. hopefully they'll iron out the gnome bugs by 10.04.. keeping 9.10 on my media center though.. there it's perfect
[05:15] <mcnellis> k thanks for your help unop Out_Cold .... brb :)
[05:15] <freaky[t]> is there any good note taking & sharing tool?
[05:15] <chuche> It should be automatically recognized once you plug it in. Of course it isn't going to notifiy a la Windows but you can try printing in OpenOffice.
[05:15] <x_> is there a program or terminal code to figure out how hot is cpu?
[05:15] <chuche> There you will see it detected.
[05:15] <jonas3> i did that already but it says CUPS scheduling is not running..
[05:16] <blakkheim> freaky[t]: vi
[05:17] <freaky[t]> blakkheim i dont want to use vi for that
[05:17] <freaky[t]> i mean for gnome
[05:17] <FiReSTaRT> UpgradeOrNot: maybe i should just turn off upgrades.. an upgrade screwed up the suspend function for me when i was running on hardy :P
[05:17] <Out_Cold> yipeee.... new movie downloaded... see ya all later
[05:17] <fatface> in gnome is there any way to change the color of the scrollbar?
[05:18] <chu_> what's wrong with vi?
[05:18] <nulled> !dvd
[05:18] <unop> freaky[t], zim
[05:18] <jonas3> any advice on how to run CUPS scheduler?
[05:18] <unop> !info zim
[05:18] <UpgradeOrNot> FiReSTaRT: Hopefully nothing messes up my configuration because I turned on automatic security upgrades. :P
[05:19] <freaky[t]> unop thanks
[05:19] <freaky[t]> ill reboot into linux now
[05:19] <freaky[t]> and see what zim can do ;D
[05:19] <Darkedge> How do I check what commands (Terminal) are provided in a Debian Package?
[05:19] <isiah> i am ssh-ing into a server. Typing firefox & results in "Error: No display specified" I have tried using "-o ForwardX11=yes" to login it just freezes up.
[05:19] <Flannel> Darkedge: Have you already installed it?
[05:19] <blakkheim> isiah: why not just use ssh as a proxy for your local firefox?
[05:20] <mith_> true, so much easier
[05:20] <Darkedge> Flannel: yes
[05:20] <FiReSTaRT> UpgradeOrNot: usually doesn't.. im probably the only one with such luck :P
[05:21] <Flannel> Darkedge: `dpkg -l | grep bin` would likely list everything. (dpkg -l lists all the files in the package)
[05:23] <braintorch> If I run "ps -A" command, "CMD" column is too narrow and cuts programs names. Anybody knows how to fix that? Please?
[05:24] <jonas3> CUPS Server Error....the CUPS scheduler is not running....
[05:25] <jonas3> can someone help me?? really dont have any idea...noob here so sorry
[05:25] <hari_> HEY HI :-)
[05:25] <chu_> hey hari_
[05:26] <hari_> I HAVE THIS PROBLEM:
[05:26] <hari_> After fixing my printer PROBLEM WHEN THE COMMAND TO PRINT CUPS does not print and I get this message after trying to see what the PROBLEM
[05:26] <blakkheim> hari_: is your caps lock key stuck?
[05:27] <sonium> I just rm -R deleted a directory with my whole coding work in it. is there a way to recover this?
[05:27] <chu_> Why would you do something like that.
[05:27] <Darkedge> Flannel: Thanks! :)
[05:27] <blakkheim> lol
[05:27] <valindil89> ad another computer to the ubuntu network! w00t!
[05:28] <jonas3> :-(
[05:28] <isiah> sonium: I would look into shutting off the computer, running a liveCD, and trying to get a data recovery program
[05:28] <meowbuntu> anyone used ubun-student before whats it like
[05:29] <hari_> Page 1 (Scheduler not running?):
[05:29] <hari_> {'cups_connection_failure': False}
[05:29] <hari_> Page 2 (Choose printer):
[05:29] <hari_> {'cups_dests_available': [('HP-Deskjet-D2300-series', None)],
[05:29] <hari_>  'cups_queue_listed': False}
[05:29] <FloodBot1> hari_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:29] <hari_> Page 3 (Local or remote?):
[05:29] <chu_> I thought Ubuntu Tweak was better, meowbuntu
[05:29] <x_> is there a program or terminal code to figure out how hot is cpu?
[05:29] <mith_> hari_: are you not using the hplip drivers?
[05:29] <blakkheim> x_: install lmsensors and run "sensors" once it's setup
[05:30] <Night0wl> is wine the best application of it's kind for ubuntu?
[05:31] <hari_> yeah i'm using this drivers
[05:31] <x_> blakkheim couldn't find package lmsensors
[05:31] <x_> blakkheim i sudo apt-get install lmsensors
[05:32] <jamiejackson> what might be the problem with this kernel package installation error? http://jamiejackson.pastebin.com/f3975c285
[05:32] <stew> i don't believe there is any other appliation of wine's kind
[05:32] <Night0wl> stew: i need something to run just one individual windows program- this is the thing right?
[05:32] <hari_> but i don't  know happened
[05:32] <chuche> Yeah, in that case, this is the thing.
[05:32] <stew> Night0wl: yes
[05:32] <Night0wl> :) thanks
[05:32] <bastid_raZor> x_: acpi -Vf
[05:33] <powertool08> Night0wl: I think cedega is a wine-like program, but its not free.
[05:33] <hari_> you know mith_
[05:33] <hari_> ??
[05:35] <meowbuntu> anyone used ubun-student before whats it like
[05:36] <chu_> meowbuntu: It's basically like Ubuntu Tweak.
[05:37] <x_> bastid_raZor so do i sudo apt-get install acpi ?
[05:37] <bastid_raZor> x_: no, that should be a terminal command
[05:38] <meowbuntu> ok whats better ubun-student or ubuntu tweek
[05:38] <|_ocke> http://www.chilloutzone.to/video/alle-mann-raus-aus-den-federn.html
[05:38] <chu_> meowbuntu: Well, I thought Ubuntu Tweak is a more mature version.
[05:39] <Xaero> so, is 9.10 really unstable, or am I somehow retarded, twice now (once on laptop, second on desktop) it has gotten finnicky with Nvidia graphics drivers, softlocked, and then will not allow me to use the glx module at all after uninstall/reinstall of graphics drivers and reconfiguring in xorg.conf
[05:39] <x_> bastid_raZor i did sudo apt-get install acpi , then i did acpi -Vf it said cooling 0: proccessor 0 of 0
[05:39] <arghh2d2> 9.10 blows, wait for 10.04 lts to upgrade
[05:39] <chu_> nvidia card here, running 9.10, no issues. Retardation is a possibility? :p
[05:39] <arghh2d2> thought everybody knew that by now
[05:40] <arghh2d2> 9.10 is the retard
[05:40] <jonzbcc> .. I have no issues with 9.10
[05:40] <arghh2d2> so what
[05:40] <arghh2d2> you got lucky
[05:40] <bgupta> WOndering if there is an official howto to install KDE in Jaunty, and be able to easily switch back and forth between gnome and kde?
[05:40] <bastid_raZor> x_: i have lm-sensors installed and set up.. that may be the difference.
[05:40] <arghh2d2> not everybody has your hardwared
[05:40] <arghh2d2> tards
[05:40] <Xaero> chu_ running completely stable? no random compiz lag -> video corruption -> soft lock ->reboot into no working x display and tracing it to the nvidia binary being corrupted, and having to reinstall?
[05:40] <jonzbcc> right, me and a ton of other people.
[05:40] <chu_> lol
[05:41] <x_> bastid_raZor how i install lm-sensors
[05:41] <chu_> Xaero: No issues at all fortunately.
[05:41] <Diverdude> In ubuntu, i have to go to places->MyDriveLetter in order to mount the drive. Can i somehow make this happen automatically when i log in instead?
[05:41] <ouyes> bgupta, i dont think so
[05:41] <Xaero> chu_ I'm running a gtx 295, and dual 8600m's and somehow its just acting up consistantly
[05:41] <powertool08> bgupta: sudo apt-get install kde-desktop to install it.
[05:41] <x_> bastid_raZor i did sudo apt-get install lmsensors and its not in there
[05:41] <Xaero> I still havn't been able to get GLX working again after it does this
[05:41] <chu_> I guess I'm pretty light on the eye-candy (I only use this expose thing), but yeah seems to be fine.
[05:41] <powertool08> !kde > powertool08
[05:41] <geev> help me with this error "E: linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-26-generic: subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 1"
[05:41] <dandaman> sorry, whats the command in the terminal to show all your processes and how much processing power they're using?
[05:41] <bgupta> powertool08: thanks!
[05:42] <chuche> You can make them mount automatically.
[05:42] <jamiejackson> what might be the problem with this kernel package installation error? http://jamiejackson.pastebin.com/f3975c285 <= it has apt all gummed up
[05:42] <Voss> Xaero, what nvidia driver?
[05:42] <Xaero> spits out about 10000000 Missing GLX extension messages, even though the glx module is in my xorg.conf ><
[05:42] <NFischer> Whats the difference between "command &" and "command & disown"? it has the same effect as it seems..?
[05:42] <bastid_raZor> x_: lm-sensors
[05:42] <chuche> Download a package in Synaptic called pysdm.
[05:42] <chu_> I'm not entirely sure what I am speaking of, but I heard something about 9.10 "moving" away from the xoeg.conf? I don't know, I just remember some people taking about it perhaps.
[05:42] <powertool08> bgupta: I was wrong, its kubuntu-desktop not kde-desktop
[05:42] <chuche> The program calls itself Storage Device Manager.
[05:42] <Xaero> Voss, I used both the driver reccomended by the "restricted drivers" app and the latest Nvidia card
[05:42] <jonzbcc> dandaman: ps (actually, I like top)
[05:42] <powertool08> !kde > bgupta
[05:42] <Xaero> er Nvidia drivers
[05:42] <Hilikus> is there any setting to start emacs NOT in split mode?
[05:43] <neild> Hi just got a computer with a Intel Celeron E3200 CPU... should I use the 64bit version of ubuntu?
[05:43] <Voss> Xaero, ok which versions are those?
[05:43] <Xaero> neild: no
[05:43] <chuche> Not with a celeron.
[05:43] <powertool08> bgupta: As far as switching, last time I used gdm it had an option at the login screen to change your session.
[05:43] <chuche> Sorry
[05:43] <Xaero> voss: lemme check
[05:43] <x_> bastid_raZor what is the command to run it?
[05:43] <bastid_raZor> x_: you have it installed?
[05:43] <x_> bastid_raZor ya
[05:43] <bastid_raZor> !lm-sensors | x_
[05:44] <bgupta> powertool08: That's what I thought.
[05:44] <Xaero> Voss: 185.xx (doesnt say in restricted-drivers) & not sure about the newer driver that I installed, i deleted the installer after I rolled back to this driver
[05:44] <bastid_raZor> x_: that site can give you much more detailed information.
[05:44] <meowbuntu> neighter ubun-student or ubuntu tweak are in repos
[05:44] <Voss> Xaero, so which one is working?
[05:44] <meowbuntu> ^ or synaptic
[05:44] <neild> Xaero: thanks
[05:44] <powertool08> bgupta: Just a warning, the kubuntu package will install alot of stuff, libraries, programs, etc.
[05:44] <chu_> meowbuntu: Not sure how I got it. Google for ubuntu tweak .deb ?
[05:45] <Xaero> Voss: both of them worked fine, for a while, and eventually it starts to hiccup (GPU less than 60C) and eventually graphics stutter and it soft-locks
[05:45] <bgupta> powertool08: I know, I did it once (what seems like) ages ago with gutsy.. just been awhile.
[05:45] <bgupta> powertool08: thanks again
[05:45] <powertool08> bgupta: no problem
[05:46] <NFischer> Whats the difference between "command &" and "command & disown"? it has the same effect as it seems..?
[05:46] <Xaero> Voss: after rebooting, i get an unusable display error from X, and even after reconfiguring X it doesnt work correctly, but theres an error about loading the Nvidia kernel  module, so I assumed it probably got corrupted somehow, and just purged & reinstalled the driver to get back in to a live X session
[05:46] <Voss> Xaero, what program are you running when it does that?
[05:46] <meowbuntu> sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubun-student/ppa does not work in ubuntu 9.10
[05:47] <tcarter> Can anyone tell me why when i use ctrl+alt+f1 and try to login i get an incorrect login message
[05:47] <meowbuntu> ^ im trying to install this http://pastie.org/774552
[05:47] <arghh2d2> tcarter: mispelled something?
[05:48] <arghh2d2> tcarter: caps lock is on?
[05:48] <Xaero> Voss: the four or five times its happened, its been different programs, the only common factor is compiz. Its crashed on gmplayer; Totem; a game via Wine; and while doing some GPU-accelerated folding
[05:48] <tcarter> arghh2d2, nope neither of those
[05:48] <Voss> xaero, then turn off desktop effects
[05:48] <ouyes> when i watch a movie 720p(1280*720) i see two black bar on the top and the bottom of my screen, but my resolution was 1280*800, there should be only 80 pixels black ? what is wrong?
[05:49] <ardchoille> Wait, there's an easier way to add a PPA in Karmic than manually editing sources.list?!
[05:49] <meowbuntu> hello any ideas y these commands wont work
[05:49] <Xaero> Voss: I still don't see how compiz could possibly be causing the issue, its never given me issues with this GPU before... ><
[05:49] <ardchoille> When did that happen?
[05:49] <jamiejackson> How do I debug this apt-get kernel package installation error? http://jamiejackson.pastebin.com/f3975c285 Is there a way to look at the init script of the package, or something?
[05:49] <fata_erro> hi my server is getting hack attempts lots and i would like to stop uneeded services can anyone help? Here is my service list http://pastie.org/774581
[05:49] <Xaero> Voss: I'll try that for a while, however, I still am unable to get my GLX module to load again
[05:49] <Xaero> ><
[05:49] <ouyes> anybody can explain it to me?
[05:49] <meowbuntu> ardchoille, how can i do that
[05:50] <Flynsarmy> Is there an implimentation of pulseaudio for win7? I had a working one for XP but it doesn't seem to work on 7...
[05:50] <ardchoille> meowbuntu: No idea, this is new to me too
[05:50] <edbian> fata_erro: What makes you say you're getting hack attempts?
[05:50] <ouyes> Flynsarmy,  ubuntu channel mat
[05:50] <Flynsarmy> ouyes, figured ubuntu guys would have more of a clue than windows guys
[05:50] <zvacet> meowbuntu : if you added repo then  sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 9320B41C  sudo apt-get update
[05:50] <fata_erro> edbian: logs
[05:51] <arghh2d2> fata_erro: paste the logs
[05:51] <ouyes> Flynsarmy,  you are right , ok
[05:51] <neild> Can the desktop version allow you to create and install to a RAID 1 setup?
[05:51] <undecim> fata_erro: You are getting a lot of hits on your SSH server, huh?
[05:51] <edbian> fata_erro: Are you talking about ssh login attempts?
[05:51] <fata_erro> ya /var/log/auth.log
[05:51] <edbian> fata_erro: Check out this neat little package: "denyhosts"
[05:52] <fata_erro> and my site logs
[05:52] <edbian> !denyhosts
[05:52] <fata_erro> ok
[05:52] <fata_erro> thanks
[05:52] <edbian> fata_erro: I use it for denying ssh hackers.  It's great!
[05:52] <meowbuntu> ardchoille, zvacet its ok i had a typo its installing now
[05:53] <fata_erro> i'm getting 4 - 10 diff people a day
[05:53] <ardchoille> meowbuntu: so all you have to do to add a ppa is sudo apt-add ppa?
[05:53] <Hose> join ubuntu.pl
[05:53] <undecim> fata_erro: SSH servers get attacked a lot. I run my ssh server on a non-standard port to prevent this.
[05:53]  * powertool08 seconds the non-standard port idea, coupled with denyhosts
[05:54] <undecim> fata_erro: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/InstallingConfiguringTesting#Start%20sshd%20on%20a%20Different%20Listening%20Port
[05:54] <powertool08> fata_erro: And pubkey authentication only. I feel fairly safe between those three.
[05:54] <Xaero> Voss: I just updated to 190.53, and... well, i think they need to change which driver they reccomend as the default for 9.10
[05:54] <meowbuntu> aryes just like in the pastie i sent
[05:55] <Xaero> Voss: the video is smoother than it has been since I installed Karmic
[05:55] <ardchoille> !packages
[05:55] <nightsjammies> Oh good. Finally.
[05:55] <fata_erro> thanks for the tips i going to get denyhosts running
[05:55] <ardchoille> !PPA
[05:56] <powertool08> fata_erro: There's also fail2ban, similar to denyhosts but I've never tried it.
[05:56] <nightsjammies> I got a Microsoft wireless mouse from a pawn shop today, and at first it worked, but now, nothing.
[05:56] <nightsjammies> I know the battery is good. Do I need to install any libs for it to work?
[05:57] <Parabola> no
[05:57] <nightsjammies> Hrmm..
[05:57] <Parabola> hotplug should take care of it
[05:57] <powertool08> fata_erro: I think it comes this way by default, but double check sshd_config for Permit Root = no and Protocol = 2, protocol 1 is weak and well, root shouldn't be logging in.
[05:57] <Parabola> do you have anything else in the room thats wireless?
[05:57] <Parabola> pretty much everything runs at 2.4ghz
[05:58] <Parabola> also, you could try another PC, or at least another USB port
[05:58] <nightsjammies> hotplug?
[05:58] <nightsjammies> No, I don't think so.
[05:58] <nivas> what does mean Time to Live???
[05:58] <ikaro007> hi i have a problem with my laptop toshiba, when i use ubuntu 910, the machine gets very warm and it doesnt happen when i use windows
[05:59] <j03lar50n> so I have two servers (both with small HDD's 30GB). i want to tar compress a folder on one but store the archive on the other. how do i command this via ssh?
[05:59] <j03lar50n> ikaro007 maybe your fan controller isn't recognized in Ubuntu?
[05:59] <powertool08> nivas: Every time a packet goes through a switch or router, its time to live is reduced by one.
[05:59] <Parabola> j03lar50n good call
[05:59] <Parabola> nightsjammies, just try it
[06:00] <Parabola> you bought a mouse at a pawn shop, it may just be broken
[06:00] <nightsjammies> I did just try it.
[06:00] <powertool08> nivas: If this number is too small and the packet hits lots of routers and the ttl hits 0, the packet times out and fails.
[06:00] <nightsjammies> I know. It was only a few bucks.
[06:00] <Parabola> the fact that its wireless doesnt matter
[06:00] <nightsjammies> I tried another port
[06:00] <nightsjammies> Okay.
[06:00] <Parabola> the receiver does that bit :)
[06:00] <Parabola> do you have another computer you can try it on
[06:00] <ikaro007> j03lar50n, what can i do
[06:00] <nivas> powertool08: Thanku
[06:00] <nightsjammies> I just tried to connect using the connect buttons.
[06:00] <nightsjammies> Nope.
[06:00] <ouyes> when i watch a movie 720p(1280*720) i see two black bar on the top and the bottom of my screen, but my resolution was 1280*800, there should be only 80 pixels black ? what is wrong?
[06:01] <Parabola> ouyes lol...
[06:01] <ouyes> Parabola, what? lol what you mean ,
[06:01] <j03lar50n> maybe look into what fan controller/device you have - see if it has support in Ubuntu. Try to obtain that info in Windows via Device Manager or SIW. That's about all I know though sorry
[06:02] <ouyes> laugh out loud?
[06:02] <ouyes> Parabola, laugh out loud?
[06:03] <nightsjammies> what's hotplug?
[06:03] <ouyes> Parabola, what does lol stand for anyway?
[06:03] <powertool08> ouyes: Maybe its playing in another aspect ratio? There's 16:9 and 16:? something else close to 16:9, but different enough for bars.
[06:03] <powertool08> ouyes: laugh out loud.
[06:04] <Flannel> powertool08: 16:10 is the other one
[06:04] <ouyes> Parabola,  why you say this to me?
[06:04] <Junkyard> pidgin ubuntu packages not working 404 error!!!
[06:04] <powertool08> Flannel: Thanks, I knew it was really close.
[06:04] <bullgard> Two Ubuntu 9.10 computers. On both says Update Manager: "Your system is up-to-date." Still, one presents a 'man update-grub' of 2001, the other of 2009. Why is the former not up-to-date?
[06:04] <Junkyard> Not sure why... Is there any alternate way to install pidgin
[06:04] <nightsjammies> trinity
[06:04] <Flannel> bullgard: Are you sure they're both 9.10? and the old one isn't 8.04?
[06:04] <j03lar50n> I have two (remote) servers at work. Both have small HDD's, 30GB, and I can't fit the tar archive of the folder I want to compress on the server it's on. What command can I pass through SSH to archive the folder from one server to the other?
[06:04] <ouyes> Parabola,  are you a robot?
[06:05] <edbian_> Junkyard, Go to their website and get the source code or a .deb
[06:05] <brishu> Junkyard, yes there is, you can get the .deb from http://www.pidgin.im/download/ubuntu/
[06:06] <NFischer> ive just installed nmap manually.. it works, but i cant deinstall it via dpkg -r it says, its not installed Oo
[06:06] <meowbuntu> hi i got this error http://imagebin.ca/view/YvZ8gkY.html when installoing the .deb package from http://code.google.com/p/ailurus/downloads/list
[06:06] <sleepy-cat> how to create a new user(administrator) from the terminal
[06:06] <sleepy-cat> i tried with useradd -D user1
[06:06] <sleepy-cat> did not work
[06:07] <ikaro007> j03lar50n, im looking trough web and day about im sensors, i installed allready and say /usr/sbin/pwmconfig: No sensors found! (modprobe sensor modules?
[06:07] <powertool08> NFischer: If you install from source it won't show up in apt unless you used checkinstall
[06:07] <pallu> how can i add a nested X session on my desktop?
[06:07] <NFischer> powertool08, shoots.. how can i deinstall then?
[06:07] <Flannel> sleepy-cat: use adduser instead.  And it's easier to just use a two step process.  One to create the user (adduser username) then the next to add them to the admin group (adduser username admin)
[06:07] <pallu> hello every one
[06:07] <powertool08> NFischer: You have to uninstall with 'make uninstall' in the same directory you ran 'make install'
[06:08] <NFischer> i see
[06:08] <meowbuntu> i am stuck on that
[06:08] <NFischer> thx
[06:08] <sleepy-cat> Flannel,  that will make him the admin ?
[06:08] <powertool08> You're welcome
[06:08] <meowbuntu> a.deb package should just install right
[06:08] <Flannel> sleepy-cat: That'll give them access to sudo, yes.
[06:08] <sleepy-cat> cool
[06:08] <sleepy-cat> thanks Flannel
[06:08] <Richturd> hey gayasses
[06:08] <Richturd> I have a question
[06:08] <Flannel> sleepy-cat: If you're in the admin group, you can use sudo (by default, you can change this, etc, etc)
[06:08] <Flannel> Richturd: Please watch your tone
[06:08] <pallu> i don't want to have to log out to open a new session i don't know what  the progam that im missing is called so can some one point me in the right direction?
[06:08] <Richturd> Ok
[06:10] <gregorio> hey
[06:12] <Diverdude> In ubuntu, i have to go to places->MyDriveLetter in order to mount the drive. Can i somehow make this happen automatically when i log in instead?
[06:12] <punto> is there an alternative to update-manager? it doesn't work (says it can't find pygtk)
[06:12] <Flannel> punto: for day-to-day updates?
[06:12] <nightsjammies> Okay, so no ideas? Maybe something else I need to install?
[06:12] <Flannel> punto: or for moving from one version of Ubuntu to the next?
[06:13] <arghh2d2> ExxonValdeez: Diverdude tried altering /etc/fstab?
[06:13] <nightsjammies> Oh, and does anyone in here use devede?
[06:13] <arghh2d2> Diverdude tried altering /etc/fstab?
[06:13] <Flannel> Diverdude: Adding it to your fstab will work, yeah.
[06:13] <arghh2d2> sorry ExxonValdeez
[06:13] <Diverdude> AHH OK
[06:14] <meowbuntu> how do i get ubuntu tweek
[06:14] <elitecoder> Is there a problem with pppd in ubuntu 9.10?
[06:14] <elitecoder> Trying to get pptp working for a vpn
[06:15] <elitecoder> and god it's a pain
[06:15] <SillyTalker> erm...
[06:15] <alloosh> hi, whats up with quanta and sftp? after updating to 9.10 its not letting me connect? this is really not good
[06:15] <elitecoder> I keep getting GRE: Bad checksum from pppd.
[06:15] <SillyTalker> why in gadsname is there no link to the 64bit version on the website???
[06:15] <Flannel> SillyTalker: There is, on the download page
[06:15] <SillyTalker> i need to google myself the latest 64bit version...
[06:16] <SillyTalker> Flannel: where did they hide it?
[06:16] <Flannel> SillyTalker: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download  radio buttons on the right hand side select your version
[06:16] <eminor> hello :)
[06:16] <Flannel> SillyTalker: Also, every mirror has them along side the 32bit ones (if you just jump to a mirror file list instead)
[06:16] <SillyTalker> Flannel: seriously there is no radiobutton, only a dropdown to select the server
[06:17] <rww> SillyTalker: Click "Alternative download options, including Ubuntu installer for Windows"
[06:17] <Flannel> SillyTalker: Under that, there's a radio button for ... hmm, ok, apparently with javascript enabled it hides it by default.  hit "alternative download options" and then it shows up
[06:18] <SillyTalker> rww: aaaaaaaaaah :) i didnt notice that, they should make that a bit clearer imho
[06:18] <SillyTalker> Flannel: thanx i found it, rww was correct
[06:19] <nivas> Tomcat package download???
[06:19] <Raj> i have a iso file i need to burn it to CD in Ubuntu..  ?
[06:19] <Flannel> Raj: Right click, "burn to disc"
[06:19] <edbian_> Raj, Use brasero :)
[06:19] <SillyTalker> where can i get info on how to create a .deb according to the rules?
[06:19] <Flannel> SillyTalker: #ubuntu-motu has info in the topic
[06:20] <meowbuntu> is it a good idea to use package cleaner on ubuntu tweek
[06:20] <SillyTalker> Flannel: ok thanx again
[06:20] <nightsjammies> Hey, I've got a question. I want to install linux on an old gateway tower. I'm not sure how old it is, but it has a sticker on it thsat says something about windows NT. Which ditro should I use?
[06:20] <edbian_> nightsjammies, Try the Ubuntu live CD and see how it runs.  If Ubuntu is too much for it look at DSL or Puppy ;)
[06:20] <kinja-sheep> nightsjammies: Make it a server. :)
[06:20] <edbian_> DSL = Damn Small Linux
[06:21] <nulled> Wine is completely uniqiue, so ya
[06:21] <nightsjammies> Server?
[06:21] <nightsjammies> What is the closest to Ubunut?
[06:21] <nightsjammies> *Ubuntu?
[06:22] <edbian_> nightsjammies, DSL and Puppy are both pretty equally far from Ubuntu in my opinion.  If you're looking for a lightweight ubuntu I suggest xbuntu
[06:22] <nightsjammies> xbuntu?
[06:22] <nightsjammies> Okay.
[06:23] <edbian_> nightsjammies, Yep :)  Ubuntu with xfce
[06:23] <rww> nightsjammies: Ubuntu Server is the closest server distribution to Ubuntu :\
[06:23] <edbian_> nightsjammies, Ubuntu Server is Ubuntu ;)
[06:23] <nightsjammies> I've never used a server before.
[06:23] <nightsjammies> And okay.
[06:23] <kinja-sheep> edbian_: Xubuntu is not lightweight IMO. :<
[06:24] <edbian_> kinja-sheep, It's more lightweight than gnome isn't it?
[06:24] <nightsjammies> Should I go with 9.10?
[06:24] <rww> edbian_: not particularly
[06:24] <Raj> how can i verfiy a iso file ?
[06:24] <rww> !md5 | Raj
[06:25] <kinja-sheep> edbian_: XFCE, sure. Xubuntu, no. :P
[06:26] <DrManhattan> my ubuntu install doesn't recognize my ide cdrom - intel g31 chipset with an sata HD - is there a solution for this yet?
[06:26] <DrManhattan> its a dual boot with win7 and win7 has no issues with the cdrom
[06:26] <nightsjammies> Shoot, still no luck with mouse.
[06:27] <kinja-sheep> DrManhattan: You got more than one CDROM?
[06:27] <DrManhattan> No.
[06:27] <DrManhattan> there's nothing physically wrong with the drive.
[06:28] <kinja-sheep> DrManhattan: Same thing for me. I wasn't able to install it using first drive but I could make do with second drive. Weird issue, I know.
[06:28] <DrManhattan> I got it installed using a usb drive
[06:28] <DrManhattan> but I would like to enable the drive in my OS
[06:29] <Dravekx> how do I uninstall something Ive installed?
[06:29] <arghh2d2> win7 is a little b!tch that likes to mess with linux installs
[06:29] <infid> i created /home/infid/bin and put a program in it but it's not being read by my path. any idea why?
[06:29] <edbian_> Dravekx, There are mutliple options.  Would you like to know the GUI way or the CLI way?
[06:29] <infid> i know i can add it to my PATH but shouldnt linux do this by deafult
[06:30] <powertool08> infid: You have to adjust your $PATH variable, or you could symlink it to the /usr/bin folder.
[06:30] <Dravekx> edbian_, via ssh... i installed using sudo apt-get install... hwodo I uninstall?
[06:30] <ikarus__> .
[06:30] <edbian_> Dravekx, sudo apt-get remove <packageName>
[06:30] <Flannel> Dravekx: sudo apt-get remove --purge ...
[06:30] <edbian_> Dravekx, sudo apt-get purge <package> will remove the configuration files as well
[06:31] <edbian_> Dravekx, Configuration files are usually found in /etc
[06:31] <Dravekx> k. :)
[06:32] <edbian_> Dravekx, No problem
[06:32] <powertool08> Speaking of /etc, whats the best way to backup those config files? /home is easy, I want to keep everything in it. However I can do without a large number of the files in /etc.
[06:32] <Flannel> powertool08: Did you manually change anything in /etc?
[06:33] <maco> powertool08: i usually backup all of /etc anyway. its only a couple mb total
[06:33] <edbian_> powertool08, They might be a large number of files in /etc but the actual size on the disc is probably relatively small
[06:33] <powertool08> Flannel: A few things. Enough that I don't want to list them for backup one at a time unless I have to, but not enough to grab the whole directory.
[06:33] <kinja-sheep> powertool08: 10MB at most.
[06:33] <maco> powertool08: mine is 18mb
[06:33] <infid> powertool08: ubuntu's ~/.profile already has code that sets PATH to include $HOME/bin if it exists, yet it doesnt seem to work for me
[06:33] <friend1> hi
[06:34] <infid> powertool08: nm i have to resource it
[06:34] <maco> powertool08: (i also have a lot of stuff installed)
[06:34] <Flannel> powertool08: If they're just minor changes, it might just be worth it to note the changes in a text file in your home.  And yes, as other people have said, etc is rather small.
[06:34] <powertool08> maco: This is true, I was just thinking, lots of files, more space taken than necessary.
[06:35] <arghh2d2> powertool08: /var/cache/
[06:36] <powertool08> arghh2d2: What about it?
[06:38] <arghh2d2> powertool08: i thought you were looking for directories taking up unnessecary space
[06:38] <bullgard> Flannel: On both computers: '~$ lsb_release -a; No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID:	Ubuntu; Description: Ubuntu 9.10; Release: 9.10; Codename: karmic'
[06:39] <powertool08> arghh2d2: No, just complaining about the lack of efficiency in backing up all of /etc for just a few files. Then I was reminded of how little /etc is. :)
[06:40] <arghh2d2> yeah, /etc is mostly made up of little text files
[06:41] <Dextronaught> ppl awake? I need some help on something really easy.
[06:41] <powertool08> arghh2d2: Yep, not sure why that didn't occur to me. I guess I just figured why backup the stuff I don't want to restore.
[06:42] <Flannel> bullgard: Alright, can you pastebin the output (of the machine with old grub man page) of the following: uname -a && apt-cache policy grub libc6
[06:42] <powertool08> Dextronaught: We'll be the judge of that :p
[06:42] <Dextronaught> well
[06:42] <Dextronaught> I need to connect to my vpn
[06:42] <Dextronaught> I'm on ubuntu
[06:42] <Dextronaught> it's not an option to add...?
[06:43] <Dextronaught> like... top-right, I click configure VPNs or w/e
[06:43] <Dextronaught> and... the Add tab is grey
[06:43] <Dextronaught> I just installed ubuntu today, am I missing some drivers?
[06:43] <powertool08> Dextronaught: Maybe a vpn client isn't installed?
[06:43] <Dextronaught> know any?
[06:43] <Dextronaught> like, good names
[06:44] <powertool08> Dextronaught: I used a command line one, vpnc IIRC.
[06:44] <Seveas> Dextronaught, network-manager-openvpn and network-manager-vpnc for openvpn resp. cisco vpn
[06:44] <arghh2d2> powertool08: i have two 6.5 gb partitions for /  i just back everything up except for /home
[06:44] <Dextronaught> ok, 1 second, and ty btw
[06:45] <Seveas> Dextronaught, if you have a different vpn (juniper crap for example), you're out of luck
[06:45] <powertool08> arghh2d2: Except home? All your personal files on a different file server or something? Or do you just not care if you lose them?
[06:46] <jackson> is there a way to install multiple operating systems from a single flash drive?
[06:47] <Dextronaught> uhh, Seveas, I pay for one from ipredator, those guys from piratebay
[06:47] <Awesome3000> !anything
[06:47] <meowbuntu> is it a good idea to use package cleaner on ubuntu tweek
[06:47] <asdd> how do i see all the hidden folders ? '." ?
[06:47] <jackson> install / boot
[06:47] <Dextronaught> umm, Idk what you mean by network-manager
[06:47] <Dextronaught> where's that?
[06:47] <kinja-sheep> asdd: CTRL + H in nautilus
[06:47] <arghh2d2> powertool08: /home is on a seperate partition so the only way i'll lose it is if the harddrive physically dies
[06:47] <kinja-sheep> jackson: http://www.panticz.de/MultiBootUSB
[06:48] <powertool08> arghh2d2: Ok, hope your drive doesn't die then.
[06:48] <Seveas> Dextronaught, looks like pptp. Better google a howto for that. I haven't seen it before but it's definitely not handled by the plugins I mentioned.
[06:48] <powertool08> asdd: ls -a in a terminal
[06:48] <c_nick> i want to connect to a remote computer.. i need to figure out the host name there.. how should i do that
[06:49] <Dravekx> anyone using joomla?
[06:49] <maco> c_nick: ask its owner?
[06:49] <kinja-sheep> c_nick: Check out the IP in web router configuration
[06:49] <Dextronaught> ok, thanks Seveas
[06:49] <jackson> kinja-sheep, does this only apply to linux distros?  can you boot a windows iso also?
[06:49] <c_nick> no i dont want to connect using the ip address
[06:49] <punto> Flannel: for moving to a new version of ubuntu (kubuntu actually)
[06:49] <Seveas> Q: Which protocols may I use to connect to Ipredator? Does protocols like OpenVPN or SSL connections work?
[06:49] <Seveas> A: Currentley we only offer connections using the PPTP protocol. However, we are looking into offering additional protocols in the future.
[06:49] <c_nick> i am trying to figure out my own host name :D
[06:50] <Seveas> Dextronaught, so it's pptp. there's network-manager-pptp I believe. It may work
[06:50] <kinja-sheep> jackson: I don't know. I don't use Windows. (and I'm not sure if you can boot Windows off USB.) Ask ##windows for that one.
[06:50] <maco> c_nick: type "hostname" on that computer then
[06:50] <c_nick> i can connect to myself using username@ipaddress.. but i would like to have the host name too
[06:50] <firefly2442> I need help forcefully removing a package: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d42194fee
[06:50] <Awesome3000> is there any reason to use the latest kernal
[06:50] <bullgard> Flannel: http://pastebin.com/f3b062d51
[06:50] <maco> Awesome3000: if you know that some hardware you need is supported in it but not in whatever kernel you're currently using, yes
[06:51] <firefly2442> I've tried some of these options already : http://www.linux.com/archive/feature/48910
[06:51] <chu_> Awesome3000: More likely to support newer hardware in some cases? For instance, in newer kernels there's a lot of interest in wireless and acpi improvements, this isn't in older versions so much
[06:51] <powertool08> c_nick: You can use 'whois ipaddy' to find out the dns name of it.
[06:51] <Awesome3000> maco  actually the latest kernal is causing a driver error
[06:51] <git__> acpi still an issue in Ubuntu 9.1
[06:51] <maco> Awesome3000: ooh fun. file bug?
[06:51] <c_nick> thanks maco
[06:52] <maco> c_nick: np
[06:53] <root> hi all
[06:54] <asdd> where is the XORG file located ?
[06:54] <Awesome3000> root Hi
[06:54] <powertool08> asdd: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:54] <maco> asdd: by default there is no xorg.conf, however if you wish to create one, put it in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:55] <Dextronaught> Seveas, pardon my ignorance, where can I find network-manager-pptp? synaptic says it's already installed, but I cain't find it
[06:55] <maco> Dextronaught: it should have enabled more of the buttons inside network manager
[06:55] <maco> Dextronaught: its not a separate program
[06:55] <Dextronaught> o ok
[06:55] <a|3x> i have compiled the kernel but the initrd image is 46 mb and doesn't fit on my boot partitions, any ideas what i could do?
[06:55] <Dextronaught> yay :D
[06:55] <Spectral_> Hi, i have recently done a new install of the latest ubuntu and it won't display the desktop. I can switch to consoles using cntrl+alt+# but the desktop (cntrl+alt_f7) gives me an "out of range" message.
[06:56] <Dextronaught> thanks guys
[06:56] <Awesome3000> Spectral_  try startx  on another terminal
[06:56] <Spectral_> anyone got any ideas of how i can fix?
[06:56] <maco> Spectral_: i think you need to make an /etc/X11/xorg.conf with the right settings for your monitor
[06:57] <ThatGuyOverThere> I'm having a problem with my laptop's webcam. Can anyone help?
[06:57] <Spectral_> ok, what is the best way to go about this? I'm fairly new to linux still
[06:57] <maco> i dont know :-/ i havent had to worry about xorg.conf much in the last 2 years
[06:57] <ardchoille> !monitor
[06:57] <maco> !xorg
[06:58] <ardchoille> Spectral_: there's a good page right there ^^
[06:58] <Spectral_> awesome thankss for that guys!
[06:58] <Awesome3000> !webcam
[06:58] <Spectral_> i'll have a read and see if i can fix my issues
[06:58] <SillyTalker> "VirtualBox can't operate in VMX root mode. Please disable the KVM kernel extension, recompile your kernel and reboot (VERR_VMX_IN_VMX_ROOT_MODE). "
[06:58] <SillyTalker> is that ubuntu related?
[06:58] <ThatGuyOverThere> Alright, let me be more specific.
[06:58] <maco> i need to stop buying working hardware. i'm getting really out of practice.  or i need to try gentoo...
[06:58] <SillyTalker> i didnt install kvm or anything
[06:59] <ardchoille> maco: Same here
[06:59] <ThatGuyOverThere> I think I have a problem with the driver.
[06:59] <ThatGuyOverThere> I can get video from my webcam but it's upside down.
[06:59] <maco> ThatGuyOverThere: oh oh just a second
[06:59] <maco> i have something about that in my email, lemme find it
[06:59] <ardchoille> I installed Karmic yesterday and my biggest problem has been deciding which gtk theme to use
[07:00] <SillyTalker> ThatGuyOverThere: you can reverse it realtime with a cam program
[07:00] <kaushal> hi
[07:00] <kaushal> I am facing the issue http://paste.ubuntu.com/355372/
[07:00] <ThatGuyOverThere> Hmm...
[07:00] <ThatGuyOverThere> Do you mean something that's specific to the program I'm using?
[07:00] <SillyTalker> ThatGuyOverThere: sudo apt-get install cheese
[07:00] <ThatGuyOverThere> Yeah, that doesn't help.
[07:01] <ThatGuyOverThere> I know I can just turn the upside down effect on, but that doesn't help me for video chat.
[07:01] <ThatGuyOverThere> Thank you, though.
[07:01] <Awesome3000> kaushal  first fix the can't resolve host error
[07:01] <SillyTalker> ThatGuyOverThere: maybe with a good client lol
[07:02] <kaushal> Awesome3000: sure
[07:02] <ThatGuyOverThere> Well, as far as I can tell, there are no good video IM clients for Ubuntu. :(
[07:02] <maco> ThatGuyOverThere: what happens if you do this "echo 0 >/sys/class/video4linux/video0/vflip" ?
[07:02] <ThatGuyOverThere> Actually, I like TokBox for Adobe Air, but it doesn't give me the option to flip the video, obviously.
[07:02] <maco> ThatGuyOverThere: if nothing, try 1 instead of -
[07:02] <ThatGuyOverThere> Maco: I'll give it a try.
[07:02] <maco> ThatGuyOverThere: instead of 0, i mean
[07:03] <ThatGuyOverThere> bash: /sys/class/video4linux/video0/vflip: No such file or directory
[07:03] <SillyTalker> maco: cooooool i didnt know that was possible
[07:03] <powertool08> SillyTalker: Maybe its this bug? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virtualbox-ose/+bug/292588
[07:03] <maco> ThatGuyOverThere: whats under /sys/class/video4linux/ ?
[07:03] <ThatGuyOverThere> Maco: replace both the 0's, or just in video0?
[07:03] <maco> ThatGuyOverThere: the one you're echoing
[07:03] <maco> ThatGuyOverThere: but if vflip doesnt exist we need to find the right path to it
[07:04] <ThatGuyOverThere> Pretend I don't really know the command line that well. :)
[07:04] <maco> ThatGuyOverThere: ls /sys/class/video4linux/
[07:04] <ThatGuyOverThere> A'ight.
[07:04] <maco> ThatGuyOverThere: does it have a video0 ?
[07:04] <ThatGuyOverThere> Yes.
[07:05] <ThatGuyOverThere> maco: Now what?
[07:05] <SillyTalker> powertool08: yep, i was asking at #vbox too and they told me the same solution
[07:05] <SillyTalker> powertool08: thanx though
[07:05] <maco> ThatGuyOverThere: ls /sys/class/video4linux/video0
[07:06] <powertool08> SillyTalker: np
[07:06] <ThatGuyOverThere> maco: dev  device  index  name  power  subsystem  uevent
[07:06] <ThatGuyOverThere> I feel like those are supposed to be column headers...?
[07:06] <ThatGuyOverThere> There's nothing under them.
[07:06] <co> cwe_-cute
[07:06] <SillyTalker> nice no need to even reboot
[07:07] <maco> ThatGuyOverThere: no, theyre not column headers. theyre a list of files and folders
[07:07] <ThatGuyOverThere> Okay.
[07:07] <nick[0]> does anyone know the name of that program that forks to background, and then matches new windows to rules, for the purpose of window resizing, location, etc...?  (I can't find it in my bookmarks, nor on google)
[07:07] <powertool08> Any midnight commander users? how do I switch between left/right columns?
[07:08] <Spectral_> !fqdn
[07:08] <ThatGuyOverThere> maco: So I'm assuming the problem is there's no directory "vflip" in there which has the fix that I need?
[07:09] <nick[0]> powertool08: http://www.givemefish.com/ArticlesAndBook/CheatSheets/GiveMeFish_CheatSheet_mc.php
[07:09] <powertool08> nick[0]: Thanks
[07:09] <eminor> nick[0]: devilspie?
[07:09] <Spectral_> ok guys, big problem. When i boot from a fresh install i get: "Kernal Panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown block(0,0). However if i use the 'older' option on grub it does work. Whats the deal?
[07:09] <Spectral_> *Kernel
[07:10] <maco> ThatGuyOverThere: im seeing other people hitting its nonexistence too. hang on, im looking
[07:10] <nick[0]> eminor: yes, that's the one!  Thank you very much.
[07:10] <ThatGuyOverThere> A'ight.
[07:11] <hateball> nick[0]: devilspie does not work with compiz tho, just a heads up
[07:11] <maco> ThatGuyOverThere: that it doesnt autoflip the picture is a missing feature in the driver (my webcam flips when i rotate it, as it should), so you can file a bug on that, but... im sure there should be a way to set it on the fly
[07:11] <eminor> nick[0]: np
[07:11] <Jordan_U> nick[0]: devispie?
[07:11] <Jordan_U> nick[0]: *devilspie

[07:12] <nick[0]> Jordan_U: burtonini.com/blog/computers/devilspie/
[07:12] <ThatGuyOverThere> maco: No output.
[07:13] <maco> ThatGuyOverThere: "lsmod | grep videodev" then
[07:13] <Jordan_U> nick[0]: Sorry, I was answering your question, I didn't see that someone else already had :)
[07:13] <ThatGuyOverThere> maco: videodev               36736  1 uvcvideo

[07:14] <sangho_Geek2> i have a question about cron
[07:14] <sangho_Geek2> i fixed cron config by crontab -e

[07:14] <sangho_Geek2> is it work well?
[07:14] <nick[0]> Jordan_U: oh, np ;-)  I wonder if I'm going to be able to use it to manipulate Citrix-created windows (which aren't Twinview aware...hence why I'd like to use devilspie to try to hack around it)
[07:14] <hateball> nick[0]: no reason to download/compile if it's in the repos already :)
[07:15] <ThatGuyOverThere> maco: Hey, man, I don't even know how to figure out what driver I'm using in Windows, and I've been using that for years. :)
[07:15] <ThatGuyOverThere> Probably why I hate computers so much at times.
[07:15] <maco> ThatGuyOverThere: its uvcvideo. that was the point of that command
[07:15] <ThatGuyOverThere> 'Kay.
[07:15] <ThatGuyOverThere> Good to know.
[07:16] <skyl> what's the absolute best sound card for linux at any price? (sry for the opinion question, but let's get down to business)
[07:16] <meowbuntu> hi how do i find the uuid of /dev/sda6
[07:17] <hateball> !hcl | skyl
[07:17] <geirha> meowbuntu: sudo blkid /dev/sda6
[07:17] <maco> ThatGuyOverThere: try "sudo modprobe -r uvcvideo" then "sudo modprobe uvcvideo vflip=1"
[07:17] <docmax> hello, since some weeks standby on my laptop is working only sometimes. how can i fix it? the screen goes black, but the laptop doesent standy...
[07:18] <powertool08> skyl: I have an Sound Blaster Audigy ZS 2 and I'm happy with it, its always been easy to setup (disabling the onboard sound was the hardest part) but I only have a 2.1 speaker system so I can't vouch for the other channels working or not.
[07:18] <ThatGuyOverThere> FATAL: Error inserting uvcvideo (/lib/modules/2.6.31-17-generic/kernel/drivers/media/video/uvc/uvcvideo.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
[07:19] <ThatGuyOverThere> maco: Oh dear.
[07:19] <ThatGuyOverThere> My camera is no longer detected.
[07:19] <maco> ThatGuyOverThere: dont worry
[07:19] <nick[0]> skyl: depends what you want to use it for...games, surround sound, upgradable opamps, for headphones?  for speakers?  spdif out?
[07:19] <maco> ThatGuyOverThere: yes, because "modprobe -r" is unload the driver and then we were tyring to reload it with vflip=1
[07:19] <maco> ThatGuyOverThere: if you just "sudo modprobe uvcvideo" itll be back to normal
[07:19] <ThatGuyOverThere> Oh. Okay.
[07:20] <nick[0]> skyl: recording?  low latency?  cleanest sound possible?
[07:20] <skyl> nick[0], synthesis and recording with JACK mostly, right
[07:20] <maco> ThatGuyOverThere: *pout* you might just be in "file a bug" mode, i'm sorry
[07:20] <ThatGuyOverThere> :(
[07:20] <bullgard> Where to set the environment variable PAGER?
[07:20] <skyl> I've got it pretty well working with the onboard sound but I suspect it could be better
[07:21] <Jordan_U> bullgard: .profile
[07:21] <nick[0]> skyl: so you just need a card to monitor your synthesis, or do you need to use it to record?
[07:21] <Jordan_U> bullgard: Or, for system wide, use update-alternatives
[07:21] <skyl> nick[0], yeah, record, playback and record, mulitrack, ardour, jack, jack-rack, LADSPA, synthesizers
[07:22] <ThatGuyOverThere> I found a guide earlier that might help, but I didn't really understand the instructions.
[07:22] <maco> ThatGuyOverThere: link?
[07:22] <ThatGuyOverThere> maco: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=838210
[07:22] <skyl> running xlr + 1/4 inch would be a bonus
[07:22] <Wyt> can anyone help me with activating the "broadcom b43 wireless driver"?
[07:23] <nick[0]> skyl: does it need a midi interface?
[07:23] <Jordan_U> Wyt: What happens when you try?
[07:23] <ThatGuyOverThere> It's not very recent, but I was looking for solutions and it seems a lot of people who have Asus notebooks referred back to this guide.
[07:23] <skyl> nick[0], midi is good but I have a little usb thing that works really fine for that
[07:23] <Wyt> it just says "downloading and installing" but nothing happens
[07:23] <Wyt> it still says its not activated
[07:23] <nick[0]> skyl: awesome.  that makes it easier
[07:23] <Jordan_U> Wyt: Are you connected to the internet ( via ethernet ) ?
[07:24] <Wyt> no
[07:24] <maco> ThatGuyOverThere: yeah i came across that too and winced
[07:24] <Wyt> do i need to be
[07:24] <Wyt> ?
[07:24] <Jordan_U> Wyt: Yes unfortunately ( for legal reasons )
[07:24] <cUte> u....
[07:24] <ThatGuyOverThere> maco: ?
[07:24] <maco> ThatGuyOverThere: it involves patching and recompiling a kernel module....so it'd need to be redone after every kernel update :-/
[07:25] <Wyt> for legal reasons?
[07:25] <ThatGuyOverThere> maco: That would be thoroughly unpleasant.
[07:25] <nick[0]> skyl: this is what my friend and I use -> http://www.m-audio.ca/products/en_ca/Delta44.html  ,which we found on ebay (wicked deal)  if you need XLR, the 192 or the 2496 might be more appropriate
[07:25] <maco> Wyt: yes
[07:25] <maco> ThatGuyOverThere: yeah...
[07:25] <Jordan_U> Wyt: Broadcom won't allow Ubuntu to distribute the firmware needed for he b43 driver to work ( the driver itself is already installed )
[07:25] <Wyt> fair enough, so you're saying if i hook it up to a wired connection it should be able to download and install/activate the driver on its own?
[07:25] <Jordan_U> Wyt: Yes
[07:26] <Wyt> ooo gotcha
[07:26] <Wyt> cool thanks man
[07:26] <bastid_raZor> Jordan_U: where is that disclaimer located?
[07:27] <nick[0]> skyl: if you need help figuring out the million features of these card's mixers, subscribe to one of the ubuntu studio mailing lists
[07:27] <skyl> nick[0], cool, thanks, that makes 2/2 for maudio
[07:28] <skyl> so I guess that is the family; any suggestions about the pro/cons of pci vs usb vs .. whatever else there is?
[07:28] <nick[0]> skyl: they're less hassle than the alternatives ;-)  (part of my definition of "best")
[07:28] <skyl> usb?
[07:29] <skyl> oh, yeah maudio
[07:29] <bullgard> Jordan_U: '~$ update-alternatives --display PAGER; update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for PAGER.' --  '~$ cat .profile | grep PAGER' does not produce output.
[07:30] <skyl> yeah, def don't want hassle, I'm throwing-away/giving-away/selling a nice echo layla that worked okay on linux a couple of years ago but since support has been dropped and recompiling alsa and whatnot burned me a couple of weeks ago
[07:30] <nick[0]> skyl: for serious audio production, don't use usb for anymore more than a monitor.  Some people say it's not even good enough for that.  This said, external electronics mean that there's less EMI interference
[07:30] <Jordan_U> bullgard: Lower case for update-alternatives, and if you don't set $PAGER explicitly in .profile it uses the version set in update-alternatives
[07:31] <Jordan_U> bullgard: So it's not there by default, you have to add "export PAGER=foo" yourself ( in ~/.profile )
[07:31] <skyl> nick[0], but the firewire/pci/etc stuff works nearly as hassle free on linux?
[07:31] <nick[0]> skyl: I hate it when that happens...
[07:33] <Jordan_U> bastid_raZor: "This firmware is copyrighted by Broadcom and it must be extracted from Broadcom's proprietary drivers. To get such firmware on your system, you must download the driver from a legal distribution point, as noted below." http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43
[07:33] <cUte> ah

[07:33] <bastid_raZor> Jordan_U: thank you.
[07:33] <Jordan_U> bastid_raZor: np
[07:33] <nick[0]> skyl: the friend I set up with the m-audio 44 and ubuntu studio had never used linux before, and figured it out with a bit of googling and mailing list use (he's a guitaristist, not someone with extensive sysadmin/config experience)
[07:35] <nick[0]> skyl: this is Studio 8.04LTS 32bit though...it's worth finding out of anything newer causes issues, or if there are any weird 64bit driver bug (google)
[07:36] <bullgard> Jordan_U: Excellent! lower case was the stumbling block. --  Thank you.
[07:36] <Jordan_U> bullgard: np
[07:37] <skyl> yeah, I think the next LTS is going to be amazing, 9.10 is the best yet for jack and general audio imo; it is pretty good with the onboard sound

[07:41] <Polysics> frivolous question: when i tried Kubuntu, i liked the Twitter client desklet. Is there anything like that for Gnome?
[07:42] <Awesome3000> Polysics  You might be able to download the kde one it should work on gnome
[07:42] <Awesome3000> Polysics  if you know what it is called
[07:42] <AxD09> I think you can install new themes by dragging the archive into the Appearance window's Theme tab
[07:43] <Polysics> i will have to go and look at that :-)

[07:43] <Awesome3000> Polysics  was it the  KDE Micro-Blogging Client
[07:44] <nick[0]> Polysics: there might be a gdesklet or cairo-dock twitter...then there's gwibber, and twitux, neither which I've used
[07:44] <Polysics> Awesome3000, yes, that was it
[07:44] <Awesome3000> In synaptic there are 21 packages when I shearch for Twitter
[07:44] <Awesome3000> Polysics  You should be able to run it under gnome

[08:02] <powertool08> ouyes: It sucks, so I stay up late, sleep in late, and do whatever entertains me for free in between.
[08:02] <zer0_mood> hi all. i need to set a reminder or alarm to pop up every 10 minutes. how to do it ??
[08:02] <ScreaminIke> cron
[08:03] <One``> Hey guys.. is it possible to install Ubuntu from the HDD you are installing it on to?
[08:03] <ouyes> powertool08,  since you are time-free, and i need you advice, take a look at this
[08:04] <ShazbotMcNasty> One'' I guess it would be if you it was on another partition
[08:04] <ouyes> powertool08,  my thread  also my question , http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1376583
[08:04] <zer0_mood> where is cron? in terminal says resource temporaly unavailable
[08:04] <powertool08> ouyes: I also stay logged into irc most of time, whether I'm here or not.
[08:04] <Jordan_U> One``: Yes, but it's not easy
[08:04] <zer0_mood> !cron
[08:04] <ardchoille> powertool08: the setting to remove the user list in gconf-editor doesn't work. must be left-over from Jaunty and someone forgot to remove the setting
[08:04] <hateball> zer0_mood: you can run "crontab -e" to edit your crontab... but there should be a simple gui tool for reminders *looking*
[08:05] <Awesome3000> c_nick   rm -ri *
[08:05] <One``> Dernit. Can't get my DVD drive to boot discs or be recognised in Windows, and don't have a blank CD to burn to.. only blank DVDs
[08:05] <c_nick> thanks Awesome3000
[08:05] <ardchoille> One``: you can burn a cd image to a blank dvd with no problem
[08:05] <rudi> fffffg
[08:05] <zer0_mood> i got it tnx
[08:05] <ouyes> how to login as root and how to creat a password for root ?
[08:05] <c_nick> sudo rm -rf * also works:)
[08:05] <Jordan_U> !install | One``
[08:05] <rudi> sir?
[08:06] <rudi> ya
[08:06] <Jordan_U> !root | ouyes
[08:06] <ardchoille> !sudo | ouyes we don't support that here
[08:06] <rudi> get out
[08:06] <One``> I've read it, the only way I can do it is if I can install from the HDD I am installing to.
[08:06] <me> hi
[08:06] <Guest53422> sudo -s
[08:06] <ardchoille> ouyes: unlocking the root account makes your system much less secure, you can't brute force a locked root account
[08:06] <One``> Or if I buy a PATA DVD-ROM :P
[08:06] <rudi> sudo su
[08:06] <floyd8> I want to create a linux set up with a pre-configured development enviorment for my team members. How would I go about doing something like that?
[08:06] <ardchoille> rudi: sudo -i is recommended
[08:07] <Awesome3000> c_nick  -f is for forcefully  well the -i is interactive making it safer
[08:07] <Jordan_U> One``: How much ram do you have?
[08:07] <rudi> configure
[08:07] <hateball> zer0_mood: I havent tried it, but maybe xwrits can do what you want
[08:07] <ouyes> ardchoille, i think you both misunderstand my words
[08:07] <rudi> scaning modem
[08:08] <ardchoille> ouyes: you asked how to login as root. the answer is you don't, use sudo
[08:08] <ouyes> i try to know the something about the root user
[08:08] <Awesome3000> ouyes  sudo su gets you to a root prompt
[08:08] <rudi> sudo su
[08:08] <ardchoille> ouyes: sudo -i is recommended
[08:08] <rudi> sudo to login roo
[08:08] <jussi01> !root
[08:08] <rudi> sudo to login root
[08:08] <c_nick> ohk
[08:08] <ouyes> Awesome3000,  o i know and i ever used sudo -i
[08:08] <jussi01> rudi: please dont give out wrong/bad advice.
[08:09] <rudi> to make install
[08:09] <ouyes> i have been using ubunt since 8.04
[08:09] <cobra679> i have been using backtrack
[08:09] <ouyes> i know quite a few thing s
[08:09] <rudi> i have been using ubuntu 8.10
[08:09] <ardchoille> ouyes: I have been using ubuntu since 5.04 and have never had to unlock the root account
[08:09] <Jordan_U> One``: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BootToRAM Though if something goes wrong with the install you will be SOL without a liveCD
[08:10] <rudi> sudo install cdrom
[08:10] <One``> 512mb
[08:10] <jussi01> rudi: ?
[08:10] <alloosh> guys, this is really disturbing, why quanta is not working with sftp?
[08:10] <cobra679> sudo install dildo
[08:10] <johnKeynes> hi. when i am in a wlan i use vpn. i have got vodafone mobile connect, too. but when i am online with the vodafone 3g usb-stick  the vpn-connections in the network manager in gnome are note available. how can i enable them?
[08:10] <Jordan_U> One``: 512 meg is not enough to boot the Ubuntu liveCD into RAM
[08:10] <ardchoille> cobra679: Please don't post stuff like that here, this is a family friendly channel
[08:11] <cobra679> how much ram do you need Jordan
[08:11] <Jordan_U> One``: Why can't you use the LiveCD installer?
[08:11] <cobra679> i got 2 gb
[08:11] <rudi> enough
[08:11] <ouyes> ardchoille, i am worried, if there is no password for the root user, somebody can start my pc and he donnot know ouyes account's password but he can login in as root
[08:11] <ardchoille> ouyes: you cannot log into a locked account, don't worry about it
[08:11] <Jordan_U> One``: At least 1 GIG, and this isn't the most dependable procedure
[08:11] <cobra679> do you need an anti virus ?
[08:11] <powertool08> ouyes:  To answer the forum question: As for ubuntu supporting that cpu, who knows. You might want to ask around in #ubuntu-dev. And for size, I have a 15" laptop, I think its big and heavy and I wish I had gone with a 12" or so, still big enough to see and usable as a desktop replacement in a pinch, yet small enough to still be portable and light.
[08:11] <rudi> yes
[08:11] <Jordan_U> !virus | cobra679
[08:12] <ardchoille> cobra679: you don't need that
[08:12] <One``> I don't have any blank CDs, and don't want to go out to buy some. Only have blank DVDs, but the computer won't boot from the SATA DVD drive but will recognise it during the boot process.
[08:12] <ardchoille> One``: you can burn a cd image to a blank dvd with no problem
[08:13] <Jordan_U> One``: Do you have a USB drive?
[08:13] <One``> But you can't read a DVD with a CD drive.
[08:13] <jussi01> powertool08: please dont send people to #ubuntu-dev (or #ubuntu-devel for that matter). the channel is strictly for development of ubuntu, not support.
[08:13] <One``> I don't have a 2GB USB drive.
[08:13] <ardchoille> One``: ah, good point
[08:13] <pwnedulongtime> linux don't need no AV.....rootkits kickass
[08:13] <Jordan_U> One``: Do you have any size USB drive?
[08:13] <One``> 1GB
[08:13] <Jordan_U> One``: Can your computer boot from USB?
[08:13] <One``> Yes.
[08:13] <cobra679> maybe
[08:13] <ouyes> powertool08,  you made one of the best answer
[08:13] <powertool08> jussi01: Sorry, wasn't aware of that. Would #ubuntu+1 be a better place for ouyes to ask about future hardware support?
[08:14] <cobra679> im having hot dogs tonight
[08:14] <Jordan_U> One``: Then follow the installation from flash drive instructions in the link from ubottu
[08:14] <One``> I followed the instructions for booting from USB memory, but apparently 2GB is the minimum
[08:14] <ouyes> powertool08, is it ?
[08:14] <XBlackChaosX> hi. i just installed ubuntu 9.10 alongside windows 7. This is my first time messing with linux. Im trying to edit the grub menu but i dont know how can anyone please help. Thank you.
[08:15] <Jordan_U> One``: Where does it say that?
[08:15] <jussi01> powertool08: #ubuntu+1 is for the next release of ubuntu, so perhaps. Depends on the actual question, although its much like looking into a crystal ball.
[08:15] <zvacet> !grub | XBlackChaosX
[08:15] <cobra679> Whats the command to install amsn from console ?
[08:16] <Jordan_U> !grub2 | XBlackChaosX

[08:16] <ouyes> !sudo |  ouyes
[08:16] <powertool08> ouyes: I guess you'll have to wait for the cpu to be released and then try to find some knowledgable types?
[08:16] <pwnedulongtime> why use amsn when you hasve pidgin?
[08:16] <cobra679> is pidgin better ?
[08:16] <pwnedulongtime> ya
[08:16] <Awesome3000> XBlackChaosX  what do you need help with specifically
[08:16] <cobra679> im using Kopete but i dont like it
[08:16] <One``> I gave it a go with the 1GB option, but it still needed 1700MB
[08:17] <cobra679> do you know the command for that
[08:17] <cobra679> to install pidgin from console
[08:17] <jussi01> cobra679: sudo apt-get install amsn
[08:17] <pwnedulongtime> sudo apt-get install pidgin
[08:17] <johnKeynes> why are my vpn-connection disabled in the gnome network manager when i am online with 3g?
[08:17] <Guest42374> sal
[08:17] <jussi01> ardchoille: may I PM?
[08:17] <XBlackChaosX> k thanks for you help guys
[08:17] <zvacet> cobra679:  sudo apt-get install pidgin
[08:17] <ardchoille> jussi01: Certainly
[08:17] <pwnedulongtime> 3g doesn't support vpn
[08:18] <XBlackChaosX> @ awesome : i want to edit the order and the names of the os that appears in the grub menu. i dont know if this makes sence to you
[08:18] <Jordan_U> One``: That page is wrong, you only need a 700 meg flash drive, even for Ubuntu Desktop
[08:19] <c_nick> how to copy ALL file from one folder to another..  i mean also the hidden ones
[08:19] <ShazbotMcNasty> oh my god
[08:19] <ShazbotMcNasty> that was a massive netsplit
[08:19] <powertool08> c_nick: cp *.* /path/to/target/folder
[08:19] <pwnedulongtime> epic netsplit
[08:19] <ouyes> powertool08,  it is released already, i am just wandering you guys always lost behind the latest  hardware tech
[08:20] <c_nick> powertool08:  cannot stat *.*
[08:20] <powertool08> ouyes: Compared to Japan or similar, yes. The world in general? Probably about average. I don't stay on top of hardware advances though.
[08:20] <rudi> setting modem ?/
[08:21] <Awesome3000> XBlackChaosX  That should be easy  in a terminal use   sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst   to edit the list as root
[08:21] <Petsounds> !modem > rudi
[08:21] <zvacet> c_nick: cp -R /path/yo/folder
[08:21] <powertool08> c_nick: hmm, works for me
[08:22] <rudi> ]why?
[08:22] <One``> Hurrah, I got the DVD drive working.. perhaps I can install Ubuntu now.
[08:22] <ouyes> powertool08,  why all of a sudden, so many joins ?
[08:23] <Jordan_U> One``: I need to leave now so I don't have time to check those instructions completely to be sure that you don't in fact need a 2 GIG flash drive when using those instructions. I am 95% sure those instructions don't require 2 GIG though, and if they really do, I am 100% sure that these ( much more complicated ) instructions will work fine with 1 GIG: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1288604
[08:23] <powertool08> ouyes: Somebody said there was a netsplit, I didn't notice it though
[08:23] <powertool08> !netsplit > ouyes
[08:23] <Awesome3000> !netsplit
[08:24] <c_nick> well its still not working properly be back later :)

[08:24] <Robot> ubuntu is awesome. i've just discovered this.
[08:24] <ShazbotMcNasty> ah crud he left
[08:24] <ShazbotMcNasty> Robot, how long have you been using linux? Brand new?
[08:24] <ShazbotMcNasty> Or just new to ubuntu?
[08:25] <Robot> not entirely new. messed around with it a bit
[08:25] <powertool08> ouyes: You can hide parts and joins if you wish, it makes large channels more manageable.
[08:25] <One``> thanks Jordan_U.
[08:26] <powertool08> ouyes: I think the command is something similar to: /ignore * PARTS JOINS QUITS,
[08:26] <Robot> and ubuntu seems to work the best for me. got a few windoze progs to work (games) so that's fun :P

[08:27] <user_> i cant find any solution under forums or google
[08:27] <One``> Something like 700MB? But for some odd reason it requires 1GB more than that on a thumb drive.
[08:28] <powertool08> ouyes: Its just a bunch of little things picked up over time. I don't consider myself a guru compared to many people here.
[08:28] <Awesome3000> XBlackChaosX   Maybe your grub is installed somewhere else?  Are you using Grub not Grub2
[08:28] <zvacet> XBlackChaosX:  witch version do you use karmic or jaunty
[08:28] <cobra679> so what do you guys do with ubuntu
[08:28] <Shaolu> Everything ;)
[08:28] <Blink> v
[08:28] <ShazbotMcNasty> cobra679, I do everything with ubuntu
[08:28] <cobra679> Im using backtrack atm
[08:28] <cobra679> sort of the same as ubuntu
[08:28] <XBlackChaosX> i have no clue like i said first time using linux. should i install grub 2?
[08:28] <ShazbotMcNasty> I basically only browse the internet, and irc, and so homework.
[08:28] <ShazbotMcNasty> do homework*
[08:29] <ouyes> powertool08, but actually you are sort of a guru
[08:29] <cobra679> ermmm
[08:29] <cobra679> do you hack
[08:29] <ShazbotMcNasty> :|
[08:29] <kinja-sheep> ._.
[08:29] <powertool08> ouyes: If you want to learn more, spend some time here and help people with anything you can, even if you aren't completely sure yourself. Google-fu is the key.
[08:29] <Awesome3000> XBlackChaosX  I have never worked with grub 2  so can't help  I don't think it uses a menu.lst
[08:29] <V1k1n9> Hi, how can i do to download the content of an iframe in a php page plz ? that doesn't work correctly with wget -> I have a crypted code. (maybe there are an option...) I have the right result by using the "firebug" of Firefox, but i can't have it with a command line (maybe with lynx...)
[08:29] <zvacet> XBlackChaosX: applications>accessories>terminal and type lsb_release -a and you will know witchc version do you use
[08:30] <XBlackChaosX> Awesome3000, its grub 2. is there a way to go to grub 1?
[08:30] <powertool08> ouyes: I've trashed an install or three in my time ;)

[08:33] <cobra679> you know www.google-fu.com I cant get passed the comfirmation thing u have to enter when u register because im colour blind :(
[08:33] <Shaolu> Awesome3000: I figured he was already on the command-line, gksudo would be if he's using Alt + F2 or something.

[08:39] <Aragami> yes
[08:40] <Shaolu> And you're changing the resolution through there, right?
[08:40] <XBlackChaosX> how can i find out which device ubuntu is on sda, sdb, etc
[08:40] <Shaolu> Now are you saying the resolution doesn't change immediately or that it does change immediately but resets itself when you log back in?
[08:41] <Makaveli> hello I am thinnking of switching to Ubuntu, but I have a question in regards to the drive. In windows, we have C D, E and F drive, so when I switch from XP to windows vista, I just format C drive, but In ubuntu I am afraid there is an option like that. Am I wrong.. please enlighten me a noobie
[08:41] <Shaolu> Because if it's the latter, you need to "Save to X Configuration File"
[08:41] <Aragami> when y try to change rez y sez y dont have enaf right

[08:43] <kjelle> hi. I want to stop using Kopete, any other cool program which supports jabber/xmpp and msn protocols in KDE?

[08:43] <DJones> kjelle: Try pidgin
[08:43] <kjelle> DJones: ty
[08:43] <Shaolu> kjelle: Not a big Gnome fan, eh?
[08:44] <Shaolu> kjelle: Pidgin is built on Gtk, just so you know.
[08:44] <kjelle> Shaolu: i dont want to mix in gnome in my kde. but, im about done with kde, so in the future i'll probalby turn to gnome :p
[08:44] <kjelle> Shaolu: ah, ok
[08:44] <Makaveli> @ zvacet I just want to use Ubuntu from now on
[08:44] <DJones> kjelle: Thats probably the main chat client used, or if you're on Karmic, the other alternative is Empathy which is the default for Karmic

[08:45] <kjelle> DJones: havent upgraded to karmic yet, as i havent had time to setup vmware in karmic on my homecomp. when i get that done, i'll go for it ;) but until i know for sure vmware can run w/o problems in karmic, im keeping my 9.04 :)
[08:45] <zvacet> Makaveli:  it will be good to have separate home partition use manual way to install
[08:46] <Makaveli> zvacet I know how to install ubuntu but what I want to know is how do i install ubuntu on the C drive only
[08:46] <Makaveli> and put data's on D , E and F
[08:46] <pillow> drmrhorse ffmpeg is also installed
[08:46] <iKernel> hello
[08:46] <Shaolu> Makaveli: That's all configured during installation.
[08:46] <drmrhorse> pillow: there are instructions here on how to compile ffmpeg from source with amr support: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=786095
[08:47] <DJones> kjelle: I'm using karmic, but I've stuck with pidgin because it suits my use better, it connects to pretty much all the different chat proctols so should cover anything you need
[08:47] <zvacet> Makaveli:  it is little bit different than win linux use root home ... not c,d,e
[08:47] <powertool08> pillow: if you compile, use checkinstall so its easy to uninstall
[08:47] <Shaolu> Makaveli: Just select the partition for C and have Ubuntu installed on it, overwriting everything on it while selecting the other partitions to be left alone.
[08:47] <Gary20> is there a LAMP package out there w/ python?
[08:47] <Aragami> ok ,merci
[08:47] <seryl> LAMP with python? WHY!
[08:47] <drmrhorse> the instructions for ffmpeg use checkinstall
[08:47] <seryl> Nginx and Python chief
[08:47] <Shaolu> Makaveli: You can even non-destructively repartition drives if need be.
[08:48] <seryl> Why apache? Talk about overdoing it
[08:48] <unknown32> hello i did a update and rebooted pc and all  my sessions are blank, gnome and blackbox are not available to me is this a known isssue?
[08:48] <iKernel> I'm having trouble logging into my desktop environment (xfce4). When I enter my password, hit enter, it starts to load up, but then the X server restarts, and I'm presented with a fresh login prompt. This is what is in dmesg every time: pastebin.ca/1748019 . This happens every time I try to log in to the desktop environment, everything else is fine.
[08:49] <Gary20> seryl: lighttpd? good?
[08:49] <coz_> iKernel,  that pastebin.ca link is not good
[08:49] <seryl> Did I say lighttpd? What is this 1999?
[08:49] <iKernel> coz_ what do you mean?
[08:49] <seryl> Gary20: nginx is better by orders of magnitude.
[08:49] <unknown32> ikernel i am having the same problem I cannot log onto a desktop enviroment (gnome) as well
[08:49] <coz_> iKernel,   it should be http://pastebin.ca + number
[08:49] <powertool08> coz_: sure it is, just not a clickable link.
[08:50] <iKernel> http://pastebin.ca/1748019
[08:50] <iKernel> i had to write it down with pen and paper
[08:50] <Gary20> new and currently learning about web servers. i'll look into nginx
[08:50] <seryl> Gary20: what type of app are you trying to run, web app? Look into pylons, or turbogears if you want to go the python route
[08:50] <XBlackChaosX> starting a new OS is not an easy thing
[08:50] <Redaxxx> I got a minor but quite annoying problem with xubuntu, everytime I boot my computer and reach the desktop it automatically opens terminal, hardware drivers and add/remove software (or whatever it's called in English)... When shutting off I make sure that "Save session for future logins" is not marked.  Anyone know how to stop this from happening?
[08:51] <iKernel> unknown32, when installing, did you choose to make it so you need the password to log in and decrypt your file system?
[08:51] <ardchoille> Redaxxx: you need to be in #xubuntu, we can't support that here
[08:51] <Redaxxx> Alright
[08:51] <powertool08> Redaxxx: I had that problem once, you have to delete the folder which holds the saved session, logout, and back in.
[08:52] <papul> hi. i would like to know how to install and use tor
[08:52] <Redaxxx> Alright, I'll look into that powertool, thanks
[08:52] <powertool08> Redaxxx: You're welcome.
[08:52] <papul> i have used it before on win xp. is vidilia also available for ubuntu?
[08:52] <unknown32> ikernel nothing,   ... as a work around right now i am reinstalling ubuntu-desktop package on apt to see if that works
[08:52] <cobra679> how do i get into making my own linux distro ?
[08:53] <iKernel> cobra679, linux from scratch
[08:53] <cobra679> is it easy ?
[08:53] <kjelle> DJones: yepp ;)
[08:53] <powertool08> !LFS > cobra679
[08:53] <iKernel> cobra679, no
[08:53] <kjelle> DJones: ty
[08:53] <unknown32> nope
[08:53] <Shaolu> cobra679: Get a CD burner, some CDs, and some cases?
[08:53] <Shwack> does anybody use grooveshark widgets?
[08:53] <ardchoille> !ot | cobra679
[08:53] <iKernel> unknown32, yeah well I chose to make it so I need the password to decrypt my file system
[08:53] <XBlackChaosX> i need help once more. i reverted back to grub 1 but now it doesnt even show a menu at startup it just says grub at the top left corner and then it boots straight to ubuntu. and when i took a look at the grub menu.lst i dont see windows on it all i see is this
[08:53] <Gary20> seryl: i was told to learn django and twisted.
[08:53] <unknown32> oh i see
[08:53] <rww> papul: Installation instructions are at http://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en . In my experience, Vidilia is a pain to get running.
[08:53] <XBlackChaosX> can someone do private chat i dont wanna flood the channel

[08:54] <XBlackChaosX> np
[08:54] <iKernel> Another annoying thiing is that when I shut down from the xfce4 screen, xfce4 closes all the windows, then just before it gets to closing off X, the computer freezes and I have to do a hard power off.
[08:54] <iKernel> i've had to do that a few times, and I think it might be related to my problem
[08:55] <powertool08> XBlackChaosX: You may need to run 'update-grub' when in a grub shell (looks like 'grub>  ')

[08:57] <cobra679> UAA use a windows disk to delete and create partitions then try install ubuntu again
[08:57] <UAA> :S so it's bug?
[08:58] <Shaolu> Can someone tell me what FSF means by "Graphical Interface" on its page about Grub2?  I mean, grub already supports graphical backgrounds and what not...
[08:58] <cobra679> UAA no idea

[09:01] <gazra> Hello, does anyone know where I can find infos about cloud computer services. Differences between Google, Amazon, Ubuntu, etc clouds?
[09:03] <MASARUwota> gazra: wikipedia?
[09:03] <ardchoille> gazra: That's a very interesting idea and one I feel the rest of the community needs to know as well. Perhaps you can post this question at http://ubuntuforums.org
[09:03] <MASARUwota> "cloud computing" D:
[09:03] <MASARUwota> enjoy privacy loss and corporational control D:
[09:04] <Quan-Time_> gazra: "consipracy theory ahoy" resist cloud computing.. your data will no longer be "your data". much like the pics on facebook, they are 100% no longer yours.. etc..
[09:04] <ardchoille> !ot
[09:04] <gazra> What I'm interested is to make a comparison between the top offerings
[09:05] <gazra> But i don't seem to find much with Google
[09:06] <kinja-sheep> gazra: Silly theory! Google is concealing the evidences!
[09:06] <Quan-Time_> gazra: in #ubuntu-offtopic please ;)
[09:06] <gazra> And this is Ubuntu related!! So please don't make ubottu to tell me that I'm offtopic
[09:06] <MASARUwota> !ot|gazra
[09:06] <MASARUwota> :/
[09:06] <gazra> Ubuntu has also a cloud!
[09:06] <Quan-Time_> gazra: ok.. wahts your question ?
[09:06] <rww> gazra: this channel is for Ubuntu technical support. Cloud computing is neither Ubuntu-related nor a technical support issue.
[09:06] <Quan-Time_> gazra: HARHARCH repositories are not "cloud".. is that what you mean ?
[09:07] <gazra> What???????????????
[09:07] <gazra> Well, then I'm miss informed
[09:07] <rww> gazra: us sharing a name with a cloud computing solution does not make said solution on-topic for here.
[09:07] <MASARUwota> gazra: lol
[09:07] <Quan-Time_> gazra: PM chat me
[09:07] <gazra> So Ubuntu cloud solution has nothing to do with Ubuntu?
[09:07] <ardchoille> Folks, please take the cloud computing conversation to another channel.
[09:07] <MASARUwota> gazra: not with #ubuntu, the ubuntu support channel
[09:08] <XBlackChaosX> Hello again dont mean to be annoying but here is the link to my paste :http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/ma826288
[09:08] <rww> gazra: please, feel free to ask #ubuntu-offtopic all about it.
[09:08] <XBlackChaosX> as you can see windows is not in the menu
[09:08] <XBlackChaosX> what went wrong
[09:08] <MASARUwota> XBlackChaosX: windows is not a linux kernel dude
[09:08] <MASARUwota> XBlackChaosX: did you run sudo update-grub
[09:08] <MASARUwota> ?
[09:08] <gazra> OK, then, I just want to make clear it was not my intention to bather anyone, I really though it was ubuntu related
[09:09] <coz_> gazra,  no problem :)
[09:10] <XBlackChaosX> no i didnt let me do that. this is my first time  using linux so this is all new and hard for me. im a windows guy
[09:11] <ardchoille> !ubuntuone
[09:11] <drizzt__> I'm having problems trying to connect WinXP share to Karmic machine, getting NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE error
[09:12] <XBlackChaosX> MASARUwota, which option do i choose? im trying to update grub.
[09:12] <Morgie> hey
[09:13] <Morgie> anyone here?
[09:13] <XBlackChaosX> do i install the maintainer, keep local version, etc etc
[09:13] <drizzt__> XBlackChaosX, replace the existing one
[09:14] <XBlackChaosX> drizzt__, i dont see that option
[09:15] <grub_booter> does anyone know how the .local names are resolved? i'm finding that support for it is very spotty - some machines resolve perfectly by name.local, and others don't...
[09:15] <MASARUwota> XBlackChaosX: open a terminal and type "sudo update-grub"
[09:15] <MASARUwota> XBlackChaosX: check if it changed anything
[09:15] <rww> XBlackChaosX: installing the maintainer version will replace the existing one.
[09:15] <Heval> hi everyone. I have some problem with my ubuntu can i ask a question here?
[09:16] <coz_> Heval,  yep shoot
[09:16] <ouyes> Heval, say it
[09:16] <Heval> for some reason my ubuntu is refusing to connect to my router...
[09:16] <XBlackChaosX> now i got this when typing sudo update-grub
[09:16] <XBlackChaosX> debconf: DbDriver "config": /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable
[09:16] <Heval> i have no problem connection to my friends router who is my next door neighbour and they are using WEP
[09:17] <ouyes> Heval, wireless line or wired line ?
[09:17] <Heval> but i have WPA on mine and it just wont connect to it..
[09:17] <Heval> wireless
[09:17] <dandaman> do any netbooks come with ubuntu loaded on them anymore? i wanna save some money on the OS by getting on with linux
[09:17] <dandaman> one*
[09:17] <ardchoille> dandaman: yes, zareason and system76
[09:18] <dandaman> i have never heard of either one of those...
[09:18] <ardchoille> dandaman: http://www.zareason.com/shop/home.php  and  http://system76.com/  have a look, somce nice boxes there with ubuntu pre-loaded
[09:18] <Heval> i have win7 on different machine and my iphone connect to my wireless router no problem. it is just my ubuntu wont connect.
[09:18] <rww> dandaman: Dell does too. http://dell.com/ubuntu/
[09:18] <bXi_> anyone know something about the fact that my ubuntu does'nt remember its localhost adres
[09:19] <Heval> any possible reason... anything comes to anyones mind?!
[09:19] <dandaman> just looked at system, not cheap AT ALL
[09:19] <dandaman> why was i under the impression that ubuntu netbooks were supposed to be significantly cheaper than windows ones?
[09:19] <drizzt__> dandaman, Ubuntu systems are not cheap, because they are not popular
[09:20] <ouyes> Heval,  you tried to make a connection but failed ? how it failed like?
[09:20] <dandaman> drizzt__: wouldnt buying a windows one and just loading ubuntu on it be the same though?
[09:20] <rww> dandaman: yes
[09:20] <Heval> dandaman: just buy any netbook with a linux distro then install ubuntu on it
[09:20] <adityag> i am using 8.10, and i am getting very low screen resolution, pls help, i have 7.10 installed too but in 7.10 i get  a resolution of 1024*800
[09:20] <rww> dandaman: OEMs get Windows at huge discounts. You're not going to save much of anything by skipping the Windows license.
[09:20] <dandaman> thats retarded, ubuntu netbooks should be cheaper :(
[09:21] <drizzt__> dandaman, you will most likely encounter various hardware incompatibilities
[09:21] <Heval> anyone can help me with my wireless problem?!
[09:21] <dandaman> drizzt__: ahh
[09:21] <ouyes> Heval,  give us more details ok
[09:21] <adityag> i am using 8.10, and i am getting very low screen resolution, pls help, i have 7.10 installed too but in 7.10 i get  a resolution of 1024*800
[09:22] <Heval> ouyes: I have 2 machines, one with ubuntu one with win 7.
[09:22] <drizzt__> adityag, and your videocard is?
[09:22] <Heval> ouyes: my wireless router is using WPA as security...
[09:22] <ouyes> Heval, lap or pc, so the connection is ok in ubuntu?
[09:22] <dandaman> stupid....the HD's dell offers for their ubuntu netbooks are only 5400rpm or SSD...why cant i have 7200 rpm :(
[09:22] <coz_> Heval,   if no one has a solution here you might want to try  ##Linux  channel
[09:22] <ouyes> Heval,  in win 7
[09:22] <Heval> i am using al Alfa wireless card on a pc
[09:22] <adityag> drizzt__: dont have any, its in-built with the motherboard
[09:23] <Heval> ouyes: that is for the ubuntu
[09:23] <dandaman> doesnt even have wireless n
[09:23] <ouyes> Heval, is the connection ok in win7 but not in ubuntu at the same time?
[09:23] <adityag> drizzt__: i tried copying xorg.conf from 7.10 to 8.10, but that does not help
[09:23] <dandaman> netbooks are trash
[09:23] <Heval> ouyes: but on my laptop, i have win7 pro and i have no problem connection to my router
[09:23] <Heval> ouyes: yes
[09:24] <titan_ark> Heval, probably you need to install a properitery driver
[09:24] <Heval> ouyes: but, i have asked my neighbour for their WEP key. my Ubuntu have no problem connecting to theirs.
[09:25] <ouyes> Heval,  you have to use the same security way to make the connection work ,try to change security settings when you connect from ubuntu
[09:25] <adityag> i am using 8.10, and i am getting very low screen resolution, pls help, i have 7.10 installed too but in 7.10 i get  a resolution of 1024*800
[09:25] <Heval> ouyes: i have tried it with no security at all, but still the same problem. It wont connect to my home router.
[09:25] <Heval> i am on 9.10
[09:26] <MASARUwota> adityag: you cannot change it in the settings/
[09:26] <ouyes> Heval,  try this iwconfig
[09:26] <switchgirl> anyone having java issues?
[09:26] <ouyes> Heval, open a terminal and run iwconfig
[09:26] <adityag> MASARUwota: there is only 640*400 & 640*350
[09:27] <Heval> ouyes:  i have i get my setting, but i am connected to my neighbours router right now.
[09:27] <switchgirl> i'm trying to use gaydargirls.com chat and it keeps crashing on me
[09:27] <drizzt__> adityag, you probably need a new vendor driver. Does 7.10 ask you to do this?
[09:27] <drizzt__> adityag, and why 7.10? It;s not even supported now
[09:28] <ouyes> Heval, is there a wireless interface in the output?
[09:28] <Heval> yes wlan0
[09:28] <adityag> drizzt__: 7.10 does not asked anything... its just works cool in 7.10
[09:28] <Heval> ouyes: yes wlan0
[09:28] <MASARUwota> adityag: what does your videocard support?
[09:28] <gypsymauro> hi
[09:28] <ouyes> Heval, iwlist wlan0 scanning
[09:28] <MASARUwota> !hi|gypsymauro
[09:28] <Heval> ouyes: the router it is refusing to connect to is Linksys DEFW11S4
[09:29] <drizzt__> adityag, I mean you're not likely find a suitable videodriver for it now
[09:29] <dahlia> how do I tell 9.10 to share a folder so vista computers can see it? I have samba installed but it won't let me log in and I can't find a GUI that lets me configure samba
[09:29] <gypsymauro> I've a lot of images with different sizes, there is a tool to resize them with a fixed width? (proportionally)
[09:29] <titan_ark> Heval: sorry to interrupt, are yooou unable to connect to any wireless n/w?
[09:29] <adityag> drizzt__: i cant even configure anything, as only the half window is being shown, i have to do trial and error, to complete the installion of 8.10 & internet configuration
[09:29] <Heval> ouyes: it is given me the information on the router that i am connected to right now, which is my neighbour.
[09:29] <MASARUwota> dahlia: it wont let you log in?
[09:29] <meowbuntu> hi i am trying yo install a uvuntu application and get this error. can someone help please http://imagebin.ca/view/AjqMKuAP.html

[09:30] <titan_ark> Heval: oh! thats wierd. and is their n/w  secured?
[09:30] <adityag>  MASARUwota: i basically have no idea about the videocard, its in-built with the motherboard MSI PM8M-V
[09:31] <hateball> dahlia: disclaimer, I dont personally use it, or smb so... ;)
[09:31] <Heval> titan_ark: my neighbours has WEP and I have WPA
[09:31] <MASARUwota> adityag: try editting your xorg.conf file by hand, i guess
[09:31] <ouyes> Heval,  use the command iwlist wlan0 scanning, to see if your router's signal can be found by your lap in ubuntu
[09:31] <papul> any help?
[09:31] <Heval> titan_ark: but, my win7 has no problem connecting to my router

[09:32] <Heval> ouyes: ill disconnect and reconnect from with my win machine, so i can run test on this.. 1 sec brb.
[09:32] <papul> so whats the problem?
[09:32] <titan_ark> Heval: oh. sorry no idea then. i was facing trouble too with my wireless. could connect to unsecure but not mine.

[10:00] <meowbuntu> dr really is it worth upgrading to it

[10:03] <meowbuntu> ok another thing i have just done update. update manager is asking to remove 24 packages is it ok to do so
[10:03] <meowbuntu> MASARUwota, that will upgrad to new kernel ???
[10:03] <MASARUwota> meowbuntu: it will upgrade the packages
[10:04] <meowbuntu> but is it ok for me to remove the 24 packages suggested by update manager ????
[10:05] <meowbuntu> i can remove or keep them
[10:05] <Petsounds> meowbuntu, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[10:05] <kraut> moin
[10:05] <meowbuntu> Petsounds, i cant atm till i work out what to do with update manager
[10:05] <drizzt__> I'm having problems trying to connect WinXP share to Karmic machine, getting NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE error
[10:06] <Petsounds> meowbuntu, it's always better with dist-upgrade
[10:06] <meowbuntu> wish someone knew
[10:06] <drizzt__> meowbuntu, can you list some of package sthat gonna ber emoved?
[10:07] <meowbuntu> ok thanks so dist-upgrade si better to do than use update manager
[10:07] <adityag> drizzt__: MASARUwota: adding Mode "1024x800", dint work
[10:08] <drizzt__> adityag, of course it wouldn't, you need a proprietary driver fiorst. See your motherboard manual to see which card do you have, then google for instructions.
[10:08] <ardchoille> meowbuntu: upgrade upgrades your packages, dist-upgrade brings in new packages to satisfy dependencies in order to upgrade your current packages.
[10:09] <MASARUwota> !doesntwork|adityag
[10:09] <ynef> meowbuntu: "dist-upgrade" is a different method of upgrading than using "upgrade", the difference being that "dist-upgrade" tries to perform an update in a more intelligent way, rather than just getting all the latest versions for all programs (which is what "upgrade" does) -- the man page for apt-get is quite good for this (open a terminal window, and write "man apt-get" to learn more)
[10:10] <adityag> drizzt__: in the motherboard manual, there is no mention of a graphics card
[10:10] <meowbuntu> ok here are the first lot http://imagebin.ca/view/s_d8PfOI.html

[10:33] <MASARUwota> ReginN: the installation files or the config files?

[10:34] <ReginN> MASARUwota: im looking for the plugin dir
[10:34] <viliny> thanks alot unr3a1
[10:34] <unr3a1> viliny, but you set it up in all that dhcpd.conf file from that link I showed you.
[10:35] <viliny> dhcpd.conf file is actually configured as per all the guides i found
[10:35] <coz_> ReginN,   open home directory and hit ctrl+h to show hidden files
[10:35] <coz_> ReginN,  then look for    .mozilla
[10:35] <unr3a1> viliny, does the vmlinuz file follow that guide as well?

[10:37] <unr3a1> one of the posts in that link I sent you the dhcpd.conf file has a setting for the kernel version.
 i dont have cd with me...are there any other way to fix it?
[10:38] <neil1> llutz: thanks
[10:39] <unr3a1> viliny, but you need to find the actual conf file, the one you sent is just a sample.  if you have a /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf file that one needs to be configured.
[10:39] <viliny> unr3a1: thats the file im trying to use as the conf file... not everything there is commented. I have no existing /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf file
[10:40] <viliny> also, there is no kernel specifying lines in that file as you can see...
[10:40] <unr3a1> that's weird then.  is your router setup properly?
[10:41] <unr3a1> also make sure you are running this command as sudo

[10:42] <viliny> unr3a1: no, not yet it isn't - i was trying to cure the problem of the dhcp-server that wouldn't want to start... but i'l have to try again once i get home and can change the network to the final setup where the ubuntu machine would then be the dhcp server instead of the current hardware boxes. As i understood it my problem here now is the fact that the machine is still in another network than it will be once everything is set up co
[10:44] <unr3a1> viliny, AH.  That would be culprit then.  You need to make sure that the network subnet is the same on both the router and your computer.
[10:45] <V1k1n9> Is it possible to print the content of an iframe with Elinks plz ?
[10:46] <L3dPlatedLinux> was wondering where do I change the what to do when I insert a blank cd option? cause I have picked something and checked the do not ask again option and now would like to change it??????
[10:46] <llutz> chipgeri: you can try to add "root=foobar" to grub options line at boottime. it should throw you into a initranfs-shell, maybe you can use it to rename your /etc1, not sure
[10:47] <Dextronaught> where should I ask for help if I don't have sound?

[10:52] <rethus> what is the best way to set up ubuntu with my old /home-Partition?
[10:52] <rethus> should i use the 80GB for Root & boot? the 320 only for /home?
[10:52] <rethus> what are clever partition-structures?
[10:52] <Sagaci> rethus: just don't touch it at the formatting step
[10:53] <Dextronaught> I currently don't have any sound, I'm using a laptop computer, my audio drivers are Realtek HD I do believe, I can't access alsamixer on terminal.
[10:53] <rethus> sagaci: what u mean? don't understand
[10:53] <ShazbotMcNasty> rethus, that sounds goood to me..your first comment
[10:54] <hateball> rethus: typically, you'd not use more than 20GB for /, but seeing as you have two disks to spare... and unless you want to mess with LVM, I'd do like you suggested yourself :)
[10:54] <Dextronaught> oh, and I'm using ubuntu, the latest version, 9.10?
[10:55] <zoobox> I have changed to BOOTLOGD_ENABLE=Yes in /etc/default/bootlogd and thought that ubuntu should write to /var/log/boot while it starts... but it doesn't. what am I doing wrong?
[10:55] <rethus> hateball: i think about to use the whole system on 320GB and use the 80GB as Backup-hdd, or to have two hdd to improve performance (one wis OS, other with /Home
[10:55] <llutz> zoobox: using karmic that seems to be upstart-related. you'd need package sysvinit for bootlogd, i don't know if that interferes with upstart
[10:56] <mahiti> can any body help me installing 3d desktop
[10:56] <ShazbotMcNasty> rethus,  how do u back up 320GB part on an 80GB one?
[10:56] <hateball> rethus: Well there's two aspects... most likely the bigger one is faster, but you're more likely to use that space for personal data. One option would be to partition the 320GB and use the 80GB for rsync/backup
[10:56] <rethus> ShazbotMcNasty: only data which i need
[10:57] <ShazbotMcNasty> also..i was kidding
[10:57] <L3dPlatedLinux> lol
[10:57] <zoobox> llutz: aha, perhaps I need to install some package? (and no I'm using an older version of ubuntu, 7.10 or something)
[10:57] <Dextronaught> I currently don't have any sound, I'm using a laptop computer, my audio drivers are Realtek HD I do believe, I can't access alsamixer on terminal. I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 (or the latest)
[10:57] <ShazbotMcNasty> just type super slow bcus onscreen keyboard
[10:57] <steveccc> can anyone tell me if a program exists that will read a dvd bit by bit and create an iso image
[10:58] <rethus> hateball: k. thats what i think to do. But how can i migrate tu ubuntu on such way, that i have a fallback to old suse partition, if something not work?
[10:58] <llutz> zoobox: do you have "sysvinit" installed?
[10:58] <ShazbotMcNasty> Dextronaught, why no alsa?
[10:58] <Dextronaught> Idk, I type that and nothing happens
[10:58] <Dextronaught> uhh, let me paste what it says
[10:58] <Dextronaught> alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory
[10:59] <ShazbotMcNasty> :/
[10:59] <rethus> format the 80Gb and installing ubuntu on a partition which is exactly sized like the root of SUSE and copy than the suse to 80GB and overwrite /root with ubuntu from the 320 GB ?
[10:59] <rethus> don't know how to take this migration-Step.
[10:59] <zoobox> llutz: no but "upstart-compat-sysv" is installed.  "compatibility tasks and utilities that emulate the behaviour of the original sysvinit package"
[11:00] <ShazbotMcNasty> Dextronaught, i would totally help you, but im using onscreen keyboard
[11:01] <llutz> zoobox: look for the package containing bootlogd in 7.10, which btw  is outdated (apt-file search bootlogd)
[11:01] <Dextronaught> aww, that's horrible lol
[11:01] <Dextronaught> why?
[11:01] <ShazbotMcNasty> and i need to be doing homework :<
[11:01] <Dextronaught> :(((((((((
[11:01] <zoobox> in the file /var/log/boot I can read the text "(Nothing has been logged yet.)" from 2007-10-16 (must have been during install of ubuntu I guess)
[11:01] <zoobox> ok I look
[11:01] <ShazbotMcNasty> book on desk - keyboard put away
[11:02] <ShazbotMcNasty> SO i cant irc  lol
[11:02] <zoobox> llutz: no match.
[11:03] <rethus> so i could do it like that (maybe): Installing Ubuntu on the 80GB hdd.
[11:03] <rethus> copy all data from 320GB /home to 80GB /home and try if all work.
[11:03] <bullgard> '~$ aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Rear_Right.wav; Playback Wave '/usr/share/sounds/alsa/Rear_Right.wav': Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Samplingrate: 48000 Hz, Mono.' Why do I hear no sound?  GNOME ALSA Mixer display Soundchip=AD1981B, Master=100% , PCM=100%, Mix Mono asserted, Mono Output Select asserted.
[11:03] <mswl> what can i use to use a "replace in files" in file texts?
[11:04] <rethus> if all work, i could copy 80GB / to 320GB / ?
[11:04] <rethus> would this work?
[11:04] <lewnidas_> lewnidas
[11:04] <rethus> menas, maybe i have to copy /boot too
[11:04] <rethus> what u think
[11:05] <zoobox> llutz: and yes I know this version of ubuntu is outdated, but before I reinstall with a new version, I want to save the text that is written during start of ubuntu.
[11:05] <llutz> zoobox: there are some still unsolved bugreports about that. but sorry canot help you yet.gtg
[11:06] <Slart> mswl: I'm not quite sure I understand what you mean.. you want to replace a phrase in one or more files with some other phrase?
[11:06] <Slart> mswl: all files are regular text files
[11:06] <mswl> Slart, right
[11:06] <rethus> would it work, if i copy whole / and /boot of ubuntu to my 320GB disk? Would this result in a working system, of have i to do something other (grub etc.)?
[11:06] <Slart> mswl: try sed, possibly awk
[11:06] <mswl> thanks Slart
[11:06] <Slart> mswl: you're welcome
[11:07] <meowbuntu> i have just forn playonlinux another free application like wine. anyone know which is better
[11:07] <Endure> I installed another ubuntu-based distro, (it installed grub with it). Grub detects my main ubuntu distro (9.10) but whenever I select to boot it, screen goes blank at just sits with a blinking '_' in the top left
[11:07] <meowbuntu> forn = found
[11:07] <Endure> Can anyone help?
[11:07] <viliny> Endure: with what?
[11:07] <meowbuntu> !ask | Endure
[11:07] <Slart> meowbuntu: I'm guessing that playonlinux is based on wine in some way
[11:08] <meowbuntu> Slart,  am not sure
[11:08] <Endure> I'm not sure how to fix it - would setting the original ubuntu partition so it boots first fix it? If so, how would I do it?\
[11:08] <Slart> meowbuntu: which is best would depend on what you're going to use it for, what features you require.. try them both and see which one you like
[11:08] <meowbuntu> Slart, http://www.playonlinux.com/en/
[11:09] <viliny> PlayOnLinux is based on Wine, and so profits from all its possibilities yet it keeps the user away from its complexity while exploiting some of its advanced functions.
[11:09] <rethus> ok, now i'm in sense of ubuntu... installing it on my desktop 80GB disk :)
[11:09] <Endure> Or could I repair grub on the original ubuntu installation? I've tried that, but it always boots from the second grub
[11:09] <rethus> means kubuntu
[11:10] <meowbuntu> Slart, also http://wiki.winehq.org/PlayOnLinux
[11:10] <viliny> Endure: are you sure you didn't... overwrite the previous installation with the new one?
[11:10] <Endure> I'm sure, I can mount the original with a live cd / new inst.
[11:11] <meowbuntu> Slart, very interesting playonlinux seems to be a front end for wine.
[11:11] <viliny> well, open the grub boot list and make sure the locations it is booting from are correct is my guess here
[11:11] <razif> hello
[11:11] <theadmin> meowbuntu: Which It is
[11:11] <zoobox> llutz, ok
[11:11] <Slart> meowbuntu: yes
[11:11] <meowbuntu> has anyone used playonlinux
[11:12] <theadmin> meowbuntu: I have.
[11:12] <meowbuntu> how is it
[11:12] <Subby> Hi is there any possibility to set the cursor in the shell on a position clicked by the mouse?
[11:12] <razif> my rythmbox can`t play!
[11:12] <razif> always error
[11:12] <theadmin> neowbuntu: Kinda confusing, but runs my games nicely.
[11:12] <meowbuntu> razif, what do you mean please give details
[11:12] <viliny> Endure: Edit /etc/boot/grub/menu.lst  - hope that helps you.
[11:12] <meowbuntu> theadmin, better than wine itself
[11:13] <sint> hey, when running apt-get update, i have a couple of "Ign" messages. could this be a problem?
[11:13] <theadmin> meowbuntu: It just gets best version of WINE and patches for this or that app, as far as I know.
[11:13] <meowbuntu> razif, paste the error on pastbin
[11:13] <meowbuntu> !paste | razif
[11:13] <sint> like "Ign http://ppa.launchpad.net jaunty/main Translation-de"
[11:14] <simple_> hi
[11:14] <razif> ok... wait
[11:14] <viliny> hello simple_
[11:14] <simple_> how can i disable notifyOSD messages
[11:14] <simple_> i dont like them
[11:14] <meowbuntu> ok so its verry good then
[11:14] <meowbuntu> ^ theadmin,
[11:15] <razif> its ok now...
[11:15] <meowbuntu> theadmin, sounds like it beefs up wine
[11:15] <razif> but its always stuck
[11:16] <theadmin> meowbuntu: Guess so. Well, I didn't really use it much because I preffer to stick to native apps overall.
[11:16] <Darkedge> 'ning all, I managed to get a friend to Linux, He's quite a gammer, except he has an Intel card, He says he's gunna get a nVidia Card, I need something to keep him on Ubuntu, (A game perhaps thats not for Windows, Don't tell me Compiz that hardly changes the experiance :) )
[11:16] <simple_> how can i disable notifyOSD messages on ubuntu

[11:17] <theadmin> Yet.
[11:17] <razif> how can i got list for radio station from my local area? ( malaysia )
[11:19] <Darkedge> theadmin: haha theres distros designed for gamming but there not simple
[11:19] <DJones> !games | Darkedge You might find something here that will keep them interested,
[11:19] <Darkedge> theadmin: I don't think he actully wants Windows, but like no games support it
[11:19] <theadmin> Darkedge: DESIGNED for gaming?, you are kidding me.
[11:19] <Darkedge> theadmin: YES. Designed for Gaming lol
[11:20] <Darkedge> theadmin: Sabayon Gammers Edition for example.
[11:20] <theadmin> Darkedge: Name one. Just very interesting.
[11:20] <theadmin> Sabayon? o_O never heard.
[11:20] <garymc> Hi, ive had this problem before, and again i dont know how to fix it. Now ive created Launchers for all client desktops they work fine when a new user logs on. Great. But as i created them with my account and i double click on one i want to load in firefox with is http://localhost/admin it doesnt work for me only.

[11:20] <kishor> keyboard not responding ... :(
[11:21] <kishor> ne chances of survival
[11:21] <ottoChauncey> question from a new ubuntu user: is there a way to revert to a previous version of a file?
[11:21] <Darkedge> Can someone tell me how change the default repos? I'm gunna use my ISPs miror
[11:21] <theadmin> ottoChauncey: There MIGHT be. Usually there are backups of previous versions with a name of oldname~. Hit Ctrl+H to see those, along with other hidden files.
[11:21] <drizzt__> most the 3d games here are clones of Quake 2/3. Also most of them are multiplayer-only
[11:22] <rob_p> Darkedge: /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:22] <meowbuntu> theadmin, does playonlinux have a run application in mintmenu
[11:22] <ReginN> Darkedge: System>administration> software sources
[11:22] <zll> a
[11:22] <theadmin> meowbuntu: No idea, never tried it on Mint.
[11:22] <rob_p> Darkedge: But you might want to make a backup of that file before you go messing with it.
[11:23] <ottoChauncey> anyone know how to revert to a previous version of a file? just from an hour ago?
[11:23] <theadmin> ottoChauncey: Look at my message above :/
[11:24] <ottoChauncey> word. thanks
[11:24] <ottoChauncey> thanks, theadmin
[11:25] <theadmin> Why does it suddenly want to install "libcddb2", "libupnp3" and "libxcb-keysyms1"?
[11:26] <meowbuntu> theadmin, i am using ubuntu 9.10 not mint
[11:26] <drizzt__> ottoChauncey, you have TimeMachine on Macs and Previous Versions in Windows. Nothing her I'm afraid
[11:26] <hubbix> is it worth it to run ubuntu from a old 13 GB drive?
[11:26] <theadmin> meowbuntu: Well, you can modify the menu to add a shortcut. I'm not sure it does that automatically.
[11:26] <meowbuntu> sorry theadmin just converted form mint to ubuntu
[11:27] <drizzt__> hubbix, it will take at least 3 GB
[11:27] <ottoChauncey> drizzt_. thanks. no worries. woulda been easier to revert, but i can just paint the pretty picture again.
[11:27] <mobi-sheep> hubbix: Sure. I'm using 20GB HDD.
[11:27] <ShazbotMcNasty> meowbuntu, "theadmin, does playonlinux have a run application in mintmenu"

[11:35] <Kartagis> hmm, there must be a problem
[11:35] <Kartagis> theadmin, could this be because I'm trying to copy a CD with Mac files on it?
[11:35] <theadmin> Kartagis: If it has a Mac-ish filesystem, then it's likely.
[11:36] <Dextronaught> can anybody help me?
[11:36] <ReginN> ahh i cant wait to get my dear laptop back, its been at the repair shop for 3 weeks now.
[11:37] <jussi01> Is there any appllications in the archive capable of opening .stp files? (cad drawings)

[11:38] <theadmin> drbobb: "annoying problems"?
[11:38] <petsounds> Dextronaught, did you double checked that it's not in muted?
[11:38] <Dextronaught> it's not muted.
[11:38] <drbobb> I'm about to give up on it, I keep getting *.u1conflict files and folders all over the place, for no good reason
[11:38] <Dextronaught> I check at the top-right, right?
[11:38] <Dextronaught> the speaker? it's not muted
[11:38] <theadmin> drbobb: Well, if you're gonna give up on it, try Dropbox, it's quite nice.
[11:39] <drbobb> theadmin: thx, suggestion noted
[11:39] <ReginN> Dextronaught: make sure PCM is also not muted
[11:39] <Dextronaught> where?
[11:39] <ouyes> hi everybody
[11:39] <Dextronaught> what's PCM?
[11:40] <Dextronaught> pardon my ignorance
[11:40] <ReginN> Dextronaught: its a slider in the mixer
[11:40] <ouyes> i donnot know either
[11:40] <Dextronaught> I can't access alsa-mixer on terminal
[11:40] <drbobb> actually I should be using a dvcs for my crucial files, but I thought I'd take the lazy route with ubuntuone. But it's just not working
[11:40] <underdev> hi!  Does anyone know how to run a server in the background that will persist after the shell is closed?
[11:40] <jussi01> drbobb: try also #ubuntuone
[11:40] <ReginN> Dextronaught: top right, open the mixer, if you cant, i dont know what to do sry
[11:41] <drbobb> jussi01: thx!
[11:41] <petsounds> Dextronaught, it's not alsa-mixer.. it's alsamixer :)

[11:47] <meowbuntu> playonlinux is greata
[11:47] <linux__> hello everyone
[11:47] <j4ke> theadmin, rethus....isnt there a chance for locked files ? or does sudo prevent that ?
[11:48] <theadmin> j4ke: It does, root can do everything.
[11:48] <j4ke> theadmin: ok...
[11:48] <theadmin> Altough I don't exactly understand what do you reffer to as "locked"
[11:49] <rethus> here my story: j4ke, theadmin:
[11:49] <rethus>  before i had 80GB with running system. Then i dublicate it to my 320GB with dd. Now i working 2 weeks with 320GB and reinstall ubuntu on 80GB. On 8080GB is my old /home... and if i can use rsync, this would couase in much less copy-processes, cause not such much has changed... or u think its better to completely copy home from 320GB again?
[11:49] <Dextronaught> ReginN, where's the GRUB boot loader menu?
[11:49] <Dextronaught> where can I find it
[11:49] <unimatrix> why can't openoffice print normally? It cuts off the edges
[11:50] <lusin> hi. do i can install ubuntu 9.10 on ext3 file system? (ext4 destroyed my hdd ;/ )
[11:50] <Ddorda> hey. is there any app to backup pop mail?
[11:50] <theadmin> lusin: yeah, no probs with that, choose it when installing.
[11:50] <j4ke> theadmin: i was thinking more of all the dotfiles in his home...used by x and so on...
[11:50] <theadmin> j4ke: Uh, those are hidden, not "locked"
[11:51] <lusin> btw; sorry for my bad spell
[11:51] <om26er_> !resetpanel
[11:51] <om26er_> thanx
[11:51] <meowbuntu> lusin, ext4 should not do that. what happened. ext4 is vary stable and better for 9.10 but yes you should bre able to use ext3 fine i should think
[11:52] <linux_> where are you from?
[11:52] <linux_> good luck!!
[11:52] <Dextronaught> ReginN?

[11:56] <javier_> theadmin: how to run fsck on the dead partition? just on console, running that comand?
[11:57] <theadmin> javier_: Yeah, fsck /dev/sda1 or something (depending what partition name is assigned, which I can't know)

[11:59] <kibibyte> hi
[12:00] <kibibyte> there was some tool in ubuntu for generating passwords
[12:00] <kibibyte> ?
[12:00] <tcr> One thing I wonder is that now on 9.04, postifx seems to be running and be listening to *.* -- is that really intended?
[12:00] <Umoplata> hello there! I installed Qimo using Unetbootin on a USB flashdrive. when Qimo has finished booting up I can't connect to my wireless. Is it because i'm running from the usb instead of installing it?

[12:01] <Umoplata> viliny: not sure, how do I find out? sorry noob here
[12:01] <meowbuntu> lord_hypnos, run the live cd insert the hdd and open gparted select your hdd right click on each partition on it  then choose check and it will fix errors on the drive. not sure if it will work but give it a try
[12:01] <ikonia> !give ikonia a test

[12:02] <atom_fox> join #ubuntu
[12:02] <Umoplata> viliny: ok and if it isn't?
[12:02] <tcr> It seems like I have "anacron", "atd", and "cron" enabled; do I really need all three? It sounds like they provide similiar functionality?
[12:02] <viliny> Umoplata: Then you need help that im not qualified to give at this point :)
[12:02] <lord_hypnos> thanks meowbuntu ill give that a try
[12:02] <meowbuntu> lord_hypnos:  Do not ask to ask, just ask! We also ask that you not ask over and over again, if someone knows, they will respond. (So, yes, you may ask.)
[12:02] <javier_> theadmin: shall I unmount the disk before running the command? It suggest files can be damaged...
[12:03] <ikonia> knight5482: if you go to https://help.ubuntu.com and look at the support docs, it will explain what packages match up to what video codecs (lookin the video section of the help guide)
[12:03] <Umoplata> Viliny: ok no worries!
[12:03] <theadmin> javier_: Yeah. I didn't expect it to automount though.
[12:03] <javier_> ammm
[12:03] <erUSUL> tcr: similar but not quite the same. hence the neeed for the three daemons
[12:03] <javier_> yeah, actually its strange
[12:03] <atom_fox> what is the best dock apps for karmic? thanks
[12:03] <petsounds> knight5482, did you install ubuntu-restricted-extras?
[12:03] <javier_> I will unmount first
[12:03] <coz_> hey guys...how do you pull up  "About Ubuntu"  via terminal?...a window opens but nothing shows up and the cursor is real gittery
[12:03] <ikonia> atom_fox: try some see what you like
[12:04] <tcr> erUSUL: Their description is all the same; not particular helpful. Perhaps I should open a ticket about it?
[12:04] <meowbuntu> lord_hypnos, never do that on an active partition eg on your main ndd inside your os it will stuff it thats y doing it from live cd is best
[12:04] <noxis> anyone got a opensauce backup system to recommend?
[12:04] <atom_fox> tnx :)
[12:04] <atom_fox> ^_^
[12:04] <erUSUL> tcr: about the description? sure.
[12:04] <neezer> I have set up my laptop with 9.10 to be able to remotely log in to my server (also 9.10) and browse the file system as a network drive. I want to set up my Fiance's computer to do the same, but she is using windows....I am using SSH to do it securely over the internet.
[12:04] <noxis> zmanda/bacula seem terrible
[12:04] <rww> ubottu: backup | noxis
[12:04] <erUSUL> !backup | noxis
[12:04] <knight5482> petsounds: yes
[12:05] <erUSUL> neezer: winscp; it is more like a ftp client...
[12:05] <noxis> It also needs to support windows full metal backups
[12:05] <tcr> erUSUL: An idea what the right project is?
[12:05] <erUSUL> tcr: no; sorry
[12:05] <Clonix> hi
[12:05] <knight5482> petsounds: when i try to watch the video on the browser i get message with link to this address : http://port25.technet.com/archive/2007/03/29/windows-media-player-firefox-plugin-download.aspx
[12:05] <neezer> erUSUL: can I use winscp and tunnel the connection through ssh so that it is secure?
[12:05] <knight5482> petsounds: but they dont have ubuntu installation
[12:06] <petsounds> knight5482, ok let me check it.
[12:06] <erUSUL> neezer: win*S*cp is already *S*ecure ;) it uses the ssh protocol in windows
[12:06] <Clonix> when i login with ssh on ubuntu it automatically runs the command "screen -x", any ideas how to turn it off?
[12:06] <knight5482> petsounds: do u want also the link to the video website ?
[12:07] <meowbuntu> spase, never randomly pm anyone ask to do so here first its just rude if you dont
[12:07] <petsounds> knight5482, yes please
[12:07] <Clonix> google tells me to look in ~/.bashrc but thats clean :)
[12:07] <ikonia> knight5482: I told you - you need the right codec
[12:07] <meowbuntu> !ask | spase
[12:08] <neezer> erUSUL: cool thanks...I guess google is my friend....I have my share on my laptop set up and it says sftp://nathan@<ipaddress>:2222. My ssh port is 2222 so dos that mean I'm tunneling through ssh?
[12:08] <meowbuntu> spase:  Do not ask to ask, just ask! We also ask that you not ask over and over again, if someone knows, they will respond. (So, yes, you may ask.)
[12:08] <erUSUL> neezer: yes
[12:08] <knight5482> petsounds: http://survivor.nana10.co.il/Category/?CategoryID=400533 (the website is in the Hebrew language but you will see in the middle of the screen the player button with the message)
[12:08] <neezer> Thanks a lot erUSUL. I appreciate the help.
[12:08] <Umoplata> I can't connect to my wireless when I'm using Puppy 4.3. Automatic DHCP doesn't work and when I try to enter the data manually using static IP my wireless still can't connect
[12:08] <erUSUL> neezer: no problem
[12:09] <knight5482> ikonia: but how can i know what is the right codec ? i installed the ubuntu restricted extras and its still not working
[12:09] <ikonia> knight5482: go  to the page I told you to go to, read the page I told you to read, install the codec you need listed from the page
[12:10] <javier_> theadmin: it looks like the problem is in some "i-nodes", which are "orphan and broken". I guess i shall say "repair them"
[12:10] <neezer> erUSUL: one more question, how do I get her the key to log in via ssh? can I copy the key from my laptop to her laptop and use it like that? or do I need to generate a new key altogether for her?
[12:10] <coz_> guys...does anyone know how to pull up  /System/About ubuntu via the terminal?
[12:10] <coz_> nevermind
[12:10] <erUSUL> neezer: you can copy the key afaik
[12:11] <lord_hypnos> hi again, I'm on the live cd now, running GParted and it shows me that the whole external drive is empty and unpartitioned, even tho it mounted 1 of 2 partitions that exist on that drive.
[12:11] <neezer> erUSUL: which key? can I just copy over my .ssh folder in my home directory on my laptop to hers?
[12:12] <ferry> PLEASE SOMEBODY... help me with building packages for ATI card from Catalyst***.run package.... it doesn't work for, me.. someone maybe can make deb packages and just send them back to me via IRC???
[12:12] <bimberi> coz_: "yelp ghelp:about-ubuntu"
[12:12] <coz_> bimberi,  yeah got that thanks   but the error is   Yelper initialization failed for 0x97f0298
[12:12] <erUSUL> neezer: i dunno what the procedue to set up winscp is. you will have to consult the winscp help to know where to copy the key or how to import it
[12:13] <petsounds> knight5482, it's not work for me either :(
[12:13] <neezer> OK. Thanks erUSUL. I really do appreciate the help.

[12:15] <ferry> erUSUL: i am not sure it will work... building packages from catalyst.run is safer, isn't it??
[12:16] <V1k1n9> Hey, how can i print frames with links2 or elinks or lynx plz ? :(
[12:16] <c_nick> how to copy all the files.. from one folder to another.. comprising of all the symbolic links.. hidden holders.. everything
[12:16] <bimberi> coz_: ok.  Sorry, I can do no better than suggest googling that message
[12:16] <erUSUL> ferry: well envyng does that afaik but anyway you can do as you see fit. to build the deb's you probably need build-essential and the kernel headers
[12:16] <coz_> bimberi,  no problem apparently it has something to do with firefox 3.6 and xlrunner

[12:21] <trijntje> Hi all, ubuntu puts é when I type ' and e after eachother, how can I fix this?
[12:21] <ShazbotMcNasty> ferry, what was the exact command line operation you tried to do?
[12:21] <ferry> ShazbotMcNasty: i have lowend mobility radeon HD3470 on my T400
[12:21] <erUSUL> mswl: if you want to append it to the file use >> not just > that overwrites the file
[12:21] <c_nick> karmic koala has certain bugs.. like the desktop bug.. then the network idicator does not auto reconnect.. and the biggest of all flaw.. the glib ...if u upgrade glib bam the gvfs gets screwed up donno ho
[12:21] <ShazbotMcNasty> trijntje, system>keyboard>layout
[12:21] <bullgard> Update Manager reports: "Warning. You are about to install software that can't be authenticated! Doing this could allow a malicious individual to damage or take control of your system." This applies - among others - to gnome-screensaver (version 2.28.0-0ubuntu3.2) that will be upgraded to version 2.28.0-0ubuntu3." What is the reason for this warning?
[12:21] <ShazbotMcNasty> ferry, what was the exact command line operation you tried to do?
[12:21] <ShazbotMcNasty> like, whatever you wrote in the command line trying to run it
[12:21] <aafuentes2> erUSUL, but that line echo \n to the file, instead of a new line
[12:21] <lord_hypnos> GParted shows me that my whole external drive is empty and unpartitioned, even tho it mounted 1 of 2 partitions that exist on that drive. I cant access the other one. how do i fix the partition?
[12:21] <DJones> trijntje: Thats looks like you've got your keyboard set to use sticky keys, you need to change the type of keyboard to one that doesn'y use sticky keys
[12:22] <ShazbotMcNasty> OR - if you didn't try I can try to walk you through it.
[12:22] <ferry> ShazbotMcNasty: sh ati........run --buildpackages Ubuntu/karmic
[12:22] <c_nick> lord_hypnos:  ?
[12:22] <ShazbotMcNasty> ferry, sudo
[12:22] <ShazbotMcNasty> do 'sudo ati......run'
[12:22] <c_nick> lord_hypnos:  is the other drive empty.. ?
[12:22] <ShazbotMcNasty> wait no
[12:23] <ferry> ShazbotMcNasty: will it help?
[12:23] <ShazbotMcNasty> 'sudo sh ./ati.........run'
[12:23] <ShazbotMcNasty> it should work
[12:23] <c_nick> and are you seeing both of them on the desktop i mean are they mounted  there ?
[12:23] <ShazbotMcNasty> make sure you cd into the directory it's in though
[12:23] <ShazbotMcNasty> if it's in /home/user/bin
[12:23] <ShazbotMcNasty> then do
[12:23] <ferry> ShazbotMcNasty: i need to write ./ <---????
[12:23] <c_nick> lord_hypnos:  what does sudo fdisk -l return.. ?? does it say those 2 are mounted or not
[12:23] <ShazbotMcNasty> ferry, yes
[12:24] <lord_hypnos> fdisk -l : http://pastebin.com/d74a187d9 c_nick
[12:24] <cobra679> vagina sudo
[12:24] <gFred> Hi! :)
[12:24] <ferry> ShazbotMcNasty: so.. sudo sh ./ati-driver-installer-9-12-x86.x86_64.run --builtpkg Ubuntu/karmic
[12:24] <kjelle> Hi. If i have a given machine without IP, but I know the MAC. I am on the same subnet as the machine, how do i communicate with it? :) I want to login to it, and have a shell in the end.
[12:25] <gFred> I have an Ubuntu 9.10 home server, and I want to connect to it via remote desktop
[12:25] <ferry> ShazbotMcNasty: so.. sudo sh ./ati-driver-installer-9-12-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg Ubuntu/karmic
[12:25] <lord_hypnos> c_nick none of those 2 is empty one is ntfs and is mounted correctly, the other one should be ext3 and is not working. in gparted it tells me that the whole drive (including the ntfs partition that is actually mounted) is unpartitioned and empty
[12:25] <c_nick> lord_hypnos: 1 TB ?!!!!
[12:25] <trijntje> DJones, Found it, thanks for your time
[12:25] <ShazbotMcNasty> ferry, 'sudo sh ./ati........run'
[12:25] <lord_hypnos> yes c_nick
[12:25] <gFred> I've forwarded port 5900 in the router and I can access the box remotely over internet (e.g viewing torrents in rtgui, etc)
[12:25] <ShazbotMcNasty> lord_hypnos, gparted HATES ntfs
[12:25] <c_nick> ok so u are seeing them in the fdisk.. can u see them on the desktop
[12:25] <ferry> ShazbotMcNasty: so.. 'sudo sh ./ati-driver-installer-9-12-x86.x86_64.run' --buildpkg Ubuntu/karmic
[12:26] <c_nick> and what are you going in gparted anyways.. ??!! specific reason for that
[12:26] <ShazbotMcNasty> ferry why are you putting in --buildpkg Ubuntu/karmic ?
[12:26] <gFred> When I try to connect to the box remotely via Real VNC (Vista) it hangs 5 seconds and gives me this error: read connection reset by peer 10054
[12:26] <gFred> ANy ideas?
[12:26] <lord_hypnos> c_nick yeah somebody told me to go into gparted to check if i can see the partitions there
[12:26] <c_nick> the question is are both of them mounted ?? and can u access them
[12:26] <lord_hypnos> but it wont work apparently
[12:26] <ShazbotMcNasty> try it without that, I've never ever seen anyone use any type of syntax like 'Ubuntu/karmic/ before
[12:26] <lord_hypnos> i cant access the ext3 partition sdb1
[12:26] <lord_hypnos> thats the problem
[12:26] <ferry> ShazbotMcNasty: to build .deb packages from catalyst.run
[12:27] <ShazbotMcNasty> you don't need a .deb
[12:27] <ReginN> it takes a while to zero out a 110Gb harddisk with dd ! heh
[12:27] <ShazbotMcNasty> you need to make the .run install it
[12:27] <c_nick> hmm lord_hypnos well.. have you tried manually mounting it
[12:27] <ShazbotMcNasty> ferry JUST DO ' sudo sh ./ati.....run'
[12:27] <ShazbotMcNasty> then if it doesn't work, paste the output into a pastebin and link me
[12:27] <valberg> hi
[12:28] <valberg> the time on my computer is really off
[12:28] <valberg> and i can't seem to get it to play nicely with the ntp servers
[12:28] <c_nick> lord_hypnos:  try sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/lord (here lord is a manually created folder in /media)
[12:28] <ferry> ShazbotMcNasty: it will install drivers!! i can do it another way.. just click the right button on *.run package and allow executing it as a programm.. but after i install drivers.. karmic will crash!!
[12:28] <c_nick> do you have any data there?
[12:29] <cobra679> i fuck cunts on the weekend only
[12:29] <lord_hypnos> im on live cd right now c_nick
[12:29] <ReginN> haha
[12:29] <ShazbotMcNasty> ferry, than I'm sure you've got the wrong drivers
[12:29] <lord_hypnos> ill try it but i have to log in
[12:29] <ferry> ShazbotMcNasty: so that is why i need .deb packages.. there are not any other drivers))=
[12:29] <c_nick> well it will work on that too
[12:30] <c_nick> i suppose.. live cd is nothing but a live session running via ram..
[12:30] <ShazbotMcNasty> ferry ATI recently dropped support on a lot of old legacy video card
[12:30] <ShazbotMcNasty> s
[12:30] <c_nick> i think u can pretty much do everything on it
[12:30] <ShazbotMcNasty> so if you've got too old of a card, then you can't use the new distros
[12:30] <ShazbotMcNasty> because there is no driver
[12:30] <ShazbotMcNasty> well, you CAN
[12:30] <ShazbotMcNasty> it's just a lot of work
[12:30] <c_nick> lord_hypnos: just try to manually accessing the folder if u can
[12:30] <c_nick> folder = linux drive sdb1
[12:31] <AceKing> What command do I use to see what format my linux drive is? Like if it's ext.3 ext.4.
[12:31] <happy_> AceKing: mke2fs
[12:31] <erUSUL> AceKing: you can check what filesystem is mounted as ---> cat /proc/mounts
[12:31] <AceKing> happy_, Thank you!
[12:32] <AceKing> erUSUL, Thanks
[12:32] <overclockingInfe> Hello and goodmorning!
[12:32] <garymc> Hi, ive had this problem before, and again i dont know how to fix it. Now ive created Launchers for all client desktops they work fine when a new user logs on. Great. But as i created them with my account and i double click on one i want to load in firefox with is http://localhost/admin it doesnt work for me only. It opens gedit instead. why is this only doing this for me?
[12:32] <lord_hypnos> c_nick, if i try to mount it it tells me that i have to put in the type of file system
[12:32] <ferry> ShazbotMcNasty: it is possible.. but on T400 it is working.. so i will do step by step and it will work for me too... the only thing is.. i need to build those packages from *.run.. and i am looking for someone who can download catalyst then make packages and send back to me all the deb packages it will build.. cause my karmic is not building any)))=
[12:32] <c_nick> lord_hypnos:  whats the command you are using
[12:32] <bimberi>  /part
[12:32] <happy_> AceKing: read the man page or something. mke2fs creats all extX formats
[12:33] <ShazbotMcNasty> well then
[12:33] <lord_hypnos> c_nick mount /dev/sdb1 into a folder i created
[12:33] <c_nick> so whats the precise feedback
[12:33] <ShazbotMcNasty> a deb. package does prettymuch the same thing as a .run file...
[12:33] <ferry> ShazbotMcNasty: you will help me to buld them??
[12:33] <ShazbotMcNasty> No.
[12:33] <ferry> aha..
[12:33] <c_nick> lord_hypnos:  try man mount
[12:33] <ferry> okay((=
[12:33] <sravan_> Is there any software that plays HD mkv and .avi files in ubuntu ?
[12:33] <ShazbotMcNasty> ferry, where does it tell you to do this?
[12:33] <c_nick> there are a lot of options you can explore
[12:33] <AceKing> happy_, I just seen it gave me a bunch of options
[12:34] <sravan_> VLC is unable to play HD files properly
[12:34] <ShazbotMcNasty> also - give me the model of your video card.
[12:34] <Andy80> hi all
[12:34] <ShazbotMcNasty> hallo :)
[12:34] <ferry> http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Jaunty_Installation_Guide
[12:34] <sravan_> Is there any software that plays HD mkv and .avi files in ubuntu ?
 VLC is unable to play HD files properly
[12:34] <happy_> AceKing: yep :-\
[12:34] <ferry> ShazbotMcNasty: Ati Mobility Radeon HD 3470
[12:35] <happy_> sravan_: it should play them. It does on my computer
[12:35] <main> hello
[12:35] <c_nick> lord_hypnos: try mount -t (type) /dev/sdb1 /media/myfolder
[12:35] <sravan_> happy_ : even files of size > 4 GB ????
[12:35] <c_nick> lord_hypnos:  but i dont know whats the type of your partition
[12:35] <happy_> sravan_: yep
[12:35] <sravan_> oh...Are you using Karmic ?
[12:35] <lord_hypnos> c_nick it should be ext3 but i think the problem is that it thinks that its  a different type
[12:35] <main> use cfdisk
[12:36] <happy_> sravan_: 9.10, is that karmic? lol
[12:36] <AceKing> happy_, I tried mke2fs -T and it still gave me the same options :(
[12:36] <oclock_inferno> happy_ yes
[12:36] <c_nick> lord_hypnos:  yes even i think that.. because it says..Linux ern something
[12:36] <c_nick> tried googling that ?
[12:36] <sravan_> happy_, : yeah, but why are the files getting struck in btn in my comp ????
[12:36] <happy_> AceKing: look it up on google :-).
[12:36] <c_nick> lord_hypnos: try mount -l -t ext3
[12:36] <ShazbotMcNasty> ferry, if I can easily build this deb I guess I'll give it to you.
[12:37] <Andy80> I'm using ubuntu Karmic and I've a strange problem with audio: applications lock the audio among themselves. I explain better: for example I'm watching a video on youtube and then audio stop working on Vagalume (last.fm client) or viceversa I use Vagalume and then audio doesn't work on Firefox/youtube. I often use a game using wine and if I first launch it I've no problem, but if I launch it after having watched a video, the audio does
[12:37] <Andy80> n't work. Can you understand the problem?

[12:49] <fais99d> hi
[12:52] <Hseries> Do I have to wait for the next version of Ubuntu for my audio to work?  (Macbook Pro, latest rev)
[12:52] <bill_> how do I install video codecs on Kubuntu karmic?
[12:52] <oclock_inferno> Hseries Did karmic break your audio?
[12:52] <erUSUL> bill_: install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[12:52] <Hseries> My audio does not work at all
[12:52] <bill_> thanks
[12:52] <oclock_inferno> Hseries im interested because I have a working macbook
[12:53] <Hseries> Is your Macbook the latest rev?
[12:53] <oclock_inferno> Hseries macbook or macbookPro? which version? and are you running karmic 32 or 64
[12:54] <hseries> Pro 15 inch, Karmic 32
[12:54] <hseries> Well, I was running it but no audio forced me back to OSX
[12:54] <oclock_inferno> hseries weird... i have a 15.4" macbook v3-santa rosa with karmic 32 and it works
[12:55] <Yuz> dalbajoben zdaroven
[12:55] <hseries> Mine is what, v5?
[12:55] <oclock_inferno> is it the new macbooks with the st00pid f4cking mini dvi ports?
[12:55] <hseries> the latest rev
[12:55] <hseries> sd port, mini dvi etc
[12:56] <hseries> I want to ditch OSX but I need audio and I cant stand PC hardware
[12:56] <oclock_inferno> hseries its probably just because of the new hardware in those. I believe they're using a new audio chip.
[12:56] <hseries> aye
[12:57] <Andy80> can you please explain me why if Ubuntu Karmic uses PulseAudio, all the guides/howto tell you to configure the alsa-base.conf ?! How ALSA is related to PulseAudio?!
[12:57] <erUSUL> Andy80: pulseaudio works on top of alsa audio drivers
[12:57] <oclock_inferno> hseries try going through this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro5-1_5-2/Jaunty
[12:57] <oclock_inferno> hseries see if that helps
[12:58] <hseries> arigato
[12:58] <Andy80> erUSUL: since Pulse is giving me a lot of problems, in particular applications lock the audio among themselves... is there a way to fix it or to use only ALSA?
[12:59] <erUSUL> Andy80: that's becouse maybe the apps areot configured to use pulseaudio ?
[13:00] <rags> Is there a way I can confiugre Directory level quota's?
[13:00] <Andy80> erUSUL: this doesn't answer my question :)
[13:00] <Andy80> erUSUL: I try to re-formulate.... are you aware of all those PulseAudio problems?
[13:00] <erUSUL> Andy80: if the apps are configured to use oss or alsa directly they can block other apps from using the card
[13:01] <erUSUL> Andy80: pulseaudio works great for me
[13:01] <erUSUL> Andy80: not that i ask much from it.
[13:01] <_trine> I have transfered a copy of my minimal ubuntu from my netbook to a pendrive using ubiquity;; it works OK except that none of my system changes are saved although I can save a 'testfile' to my home folder. Has anyone any ideas how to solve this?
[13:01] <Andy80> erUSUL: ok, this is a reasonable answer... let's try to understand better...
[13:01] <Alf_Stewart> ok im a newbie here..ive just installed ubuntu..and im trying to get my modem to work with it..i was told last night to download some files like wvdial, libuniconf, gnome ppp etc i have extracted them and it told me they been succesfully installed but i cant find where they are? can someone shed some light?
[13:02] <Alf_Stewart> by the way its a dial up modem
[13:02] <Andy80> erUSUL: do you know if wine applications use alsa directly or if they use pulse?
[13:02] <erUSUL> Andy80: just make sure that all apps that can be configured on how to use audio are configured to use pulseaudio; esd or alsa
[13:03] <erUSUL> Andy80: you can use winecfg to choose what to use. i use ESD
[13:03] <aaron11> Why doesnt gnome shell have the messaging icon?
[13:03] <Alf_Stewart> anyone?
[13:03] <amb_> hello at all
[13:03] <Alf_Stewart> ok im a newbie here..ive just installed ubuntu..and im trying to get my modem to work with it..i was told last night to download some files like wvdial, libuniconf, gnome ppp etc i have extracted them and it told me they been succesfully installed but i cant find where they are? can someone shed some light?
[13:04] <Andy80> erUSUL: I mainly use three applications: a windows game that I start with wine (for this reason I'm asking if wine uses alsa directly or if it uses pulse), Firefox+flash plugin (to watch some videos on youtube) and Vagalume, a last.fm client written for Gnome
[13:04] <amb_> does someone knows some help for grub2 usb boot problems
[13:04] <viliny> Andy80: Eve? :)
[13:04] <erUSUL> Andy80: vlc has a pulseaudio plugin. in gstreamer-properties you can configure apps that use gstreamer (like totem; RB or banshee) etc...
[13:05] <erUSUL> Andy80: for wine do what i said. flash should be compatible with pulse by default; for vagalume (firefly) use gstreamer-properties
[13:05] <Alf_Stewart> anybody?
[13:05] <Andy80> viliny: eve?
[13:06] <kufa> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ewxpQeyvI80
[13:06] <devunt> Здравствуй, мир!
[13:06] <erUSUL> !ru
[13:06] <viliny> Andy80: sorry, took a wild shot in the dark and guessed you were playing eve-online as the one windows game... nevermind me :)
[13:06] <Alf_Stewart> i need help
[13:06] <Andy80> erUSUL: gstreamer-properties let me configure the default audio server for all applications... do I set PulseAudio or do I leave "Default" ?
[13:06] <Andy80> viliny: no... but playing World of Wacraft ;)
[13:07] <erUSUL> Andy80: default or pulse should work. try changinfg to pulse given that current conf gives you problems
[13:07] <dev305> How install firefox
[13:07] <amb_> @Alf_Stewart: to what type of problem?
[13:07] <erUSUL> dev305: is installed by default

[13:07] <Alf_Stewart> ok im a newbie here..ive just installed ubuntu..and im trying to get my modem to work with it..i was told last night to download some files like wvdial, libuniconf, gnome ppp etc i have extracted them and it told me they been succesfully installed but i cant find where they are? can someone shed some light?

[13:08] <error404notfound> certain applications such as wingide and firefox has issues with globalmenu, is there a setting using which i can exclude global menu for these applications?
[13:08] <rob_p> Alf_Stewart: wvdial should get you up and running as long as your modem is a real modem and not a winmodem.
[13:08] <dev305> plz help me
[13:09] <Alf_Stewart> rob_p yes but where are the apps?!?! i cant see them in ubuntu?
[13:09] <Alf_Stewart> like i said im a newbie
[13:09] <Alf_Stewart> how do i get to wvdial?
[13:09] <dev305> hellooooooooo
[13:09] <Alf_Stewart> it doesnt show up in the menu?
[13:09] <dev305> any one help me
[13:09] <amb_> @dev305 what typ of mashine you are running?
[13:09] <dev305> It is possible that the compressed file(s) have become corrupted.
[13:09] <dev305> You can use the -tvv option to test integrity of such files.
[13:09] <dev305> You can use the `bzip2recover' program to attempt to recover
[13:09] <dev305> data from undamaged sections of corrupted files.
[13:09] <dev305> tar: Child returned status 2
[13:09] <dev305> tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
[13:09] <FloodBot3> dev305: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:09] <rob_p> Alf_Stewart: wvdial is a command line tool.
[13:10] <Alf_Stewart> what about gnome ppp? thats gui isnt it?
[13:10] <rob_p> Alf_Stewart: If you want a graphical utility, use Gnomeppp Kppp or something similar.
[13:10] <rob_p> Alf_Stewart: yes
[13:11] <Alf_Stewart> rob_p thats what im saying i extracted all the nessicary files but they arent showing up in the menu??!!
[13:11] <Alf_Stewart> where do i find gnome-ppp
[13:11] <Alf_Stewart> i cant find it anywhere in ubuntu
[13:11] <amb_> Grub-pc knowledge about to boot a usb device like in grub with root (hd..), chainloader +1, boot
[13:11] <viliny> terminal gnome-ppp bring up anything?
[13:11] <Alf_Stewart> viliny i dont think so?
[13:12] <dev305> hello
[13:12] <viliny> can you check?
[13:12] <Alf_Stewart> shouldnt there be a new menu item once i install the packages though?
[13:12] <viliny> im not even sure, but if there isn't then you can use the command instead...
[13:12] <dev305> hello
[13:12] <Alf_Stewart> i cannot now because i installed it on a usb drive i have to reboot im on windows now
[13:12] <dev305> any one help me
[13:12] <dev305> :(
[13:12] <viliny> ah i see
[13:12] <rob_p> Alf_Stewart: When you say extracted, do you mean you downloaded the source and compiled it, or what?  Usually you just apt-get install <package_name> and it fetches the correct, precompiled binary package and installs it for you.
[13:12] <Alf_Stewart> yes
[13:13] <Alf_Stewart> i got the packages:
[13:13] <viliny> dev305: just state your problem and if someone can help you they reply
[13:13] <dev305> i want to install fire fox
[13:13] <ShazbotMcNasty> lol ikonia
[13:13] <rob_p> Alf_Stewart: Either that or use the graphical package manager.
[13:13] <Slart> ikonia: got a fan club? =)
[13:13] <Alf_Stewart> libuniconf, gnome ppp and the rest of the packages
[13:13] <ShazbotMcNasty> dev305, are you trolling?
[13:13] <dev305> its shows error oon terminal
[13:13] <ikonia> Slart: maybe......
[13:13] <viliny> what error dev305 ?
[13:13] <Slart> dev305: it should be installed by default.. try just running "firefox" from a terminal
[13:13] <Alf_Stewart> rob_p i tried that but the packages i tried to install with the manager has those packages faded out? and i cannot select them?
[13:14] <dev305> You can use the `bzip2recover' program to attempt to recover
[13:14] <dev305> data from undamaged sections of corrupted files.
[13:14] <dev305> tar: Child returned status 2

[13:14] <FloodBot3> dev305: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:14] <rob_p> Alf_Stewart: So you didn't use the package manager then.

[13:14] <Alf_Stewart> and it said they were installed successfully
[13:15] <dev305> how i run
[13:15] <Alf_Stewart> i cannot find them in the menu? when you install a package where does it go?!
[13:15] <amb_> dev305 maybe with typing in "firefox&"
[13:15] <rob_p> Alf_Stewart: Are the packages you downloaded for your version of Ubuntu?
[13:15] <ShazbotMcNasty> Alf_Stewart, either to the menu, or you can use it in cli
[13:16] <dev305> plz mension the rigj=ht comand
[13:16] <Slart> dev305: click on the Applications menu, then Accessories.. then Terminal.. in that terminal write    firefox   then press ENTER
[13:16] <Alf_Stewart> nothing in the menu
[13:16] <main> any one know where i can find usplash like redhat have

My guess is, you could probably delete the sound prefs from your user's account and they will be recreated with default settings.  To test this, simply create a new account on the box, logout of your user and login as the new user and test sound.

[13:29] <_trine> I have transfered a copy of my minimal ubuntu from my netbook to a pendrive using ubiquity;; it works OK except that none of my system changes are saved although I can save a 'testfile' to my home folder. Has anyone any ideas how to solve this?

[13:29] <kickar> MASARUwota right aftre grub it is putting me in a memtest and when i esc it reboots and again and again .. is there a recover option on the livecd?
[13:29] <xiong> kickar, Is it that the memtest hangs up -- say, for a whole ten minutes? Or does it just run a little too long for your taste?

[13:29] <MASARUwota> kickar: i think you can disable that im fstab? :/ not sure
[13:29] <Slart> kickar: memtest doesn't finish.. it just starts over when it's finished
[13:30] <viliny> _trine: sounds like it's not in persistent mode
[13:30] <kieran> there ias no restore on the disc because its open source
[13:30] <kickar> xiong and when i saw test complete when i rebooted memtest again
[13:30] <nastas> hi all
[13:30] <xiong> kickar, Does this only happen when you boot the memtest kernel or when you allow grub to boot the default?
[13:30] <kieran> memtest only tests your ram and hdds

[13:31] <ShazbotMcNasty> kickar, when you enter grub, hit whatever button yo have to to get into menu, and pick your kernel
[13:31] <ShazbotMcNasty> but not memtest
[13:31] <kieran> to avoid mem test remove all remove able media

[13:40] <dev305> 9.04
[13:40] <_trine> I used ubiquity to copy ubuntu to a USB drive
[13:40] <kieran> you use the update manager to upgrade firefox
[13:40] <ShazbotMcNasty> ouyes, do 'sudo apt-get install unetbootin'
[13:40] <ShazbotMcNasty> then once you get unetbootin
[13:40] <Pici> dev305: install te firefox-3.5 package

[13:41] <remoteCTRL> Slart:  thanks dude:)
[13:41] <ShazbotMcNasty> do 'sudo unetbootin' in terminal - then select your USB key at the bottom left of unetbootin
[13:41] <Pici> dev305: from a terminal: sudo apt-get install firefox-3.5 firefox-3.5-gnome-support
[13:41] <bazhang> ouyes, yes.  install unetbootin
[13:41] <kieran> yes you make it just as you make an ubuntu startup disk
[13:41] <bazhang> ShazbotMcNasty, no need for that
[13:41] <dev305> udo apt-get install firefox-3.5 firefox-3.5-gnome-support

[13:43] <kieran> unet bootin is now obsolete and it saves in  stalling if you use the built in aplication
[13:44] <dev305> what i do
[13:44] <bazhang> dev305, then that is the highest version availabe for your current distro
[13:44] <kieran> nothing cos you already have thelasest version

[13:53] <Soyo> I am using Ubuntu, I have nslookup already installed. I want to install bind9 - should I remove nslookup first or will it get replaced anyway? I think nslookup is part of the bind package anyway right?
[13:53] <bazhang> CtrlAltCa, see the channel #ubuntu+1 for lucid if that is to what you are referring
[13:53] <Soyo> (#bind is idle)
[13:53] <CtrlAltCa> no, i'm using karmic
[13:53] <ubuntunewbie> but it required root aceess , i wanted to know is it dangerous ? xhost +   su root    export DISPLAY=:0
[13:53] <rethus> bazhang: i think i can not copy whole home to kubuntu, cause suse changing some kde-files at his own way. But what should i copy to get all my home-data run on new hdd ?
[13:53] <kieran> baz hang , i am talking about ubuntu 10.04 (codename: lucid lynx)
[13:53] <bazhang> ouyes, alternative to what
[13:54] <ouyes> bazhang,  can i use the alternative iso files to creat
[13:54] <bazhang> kieran, yes, and that is on topic in #ubuntu+1 NOT here
[13:54] <remoteCTRL> Slart: its not oxygen but that one also looks veeery nice!

[13:55] <airstrike> i'm using google chrome
[13:55] <mattimus> nope, works great so far
[13:55] <pwnedulongtime> how long you been using it?
[13:55] <noren> is there any player in the ubuntu which support yric files lrc files
[13:55] <mattimus> few days
[13:56] <bazhang> ouyes, for install only (alternate); if you wish to use live usb then you would need to use the live cd iso with unetbootin
[13:56] <noren> !lrc
[13:56] <pwnedulongtime> hmmm, I've been experiencing random complete system lockups every few days
[13:56] <Soyo> I am using Ubuntu, I have nslookup already installed. I want to install bind9 - should I remove nslookup first or will it get replaced anyway? I think nslookup is part of the bind package anyway right? (#bind is ldle)
[13:56] <mattimus> odd, I wouldn't expect chromium to be able to do that
[13:56] <pwnedulongtime> I'm guessing it's a driver chrome issue
[13:57] <mattimus> maybe
[13:57] <mattimus> I'm using ati proprietary drivers
[13:57] <mmo|> Anyone know what the best way to set up a server to receive internet radio and be able to select channels via a web interface?

[14:00] <pattabi> what to do . plz help
[14:00] <mmo|> bloodski, cant you just chmod it back to the way it was?
[14:00] <remoteCTRL> Slart: but the mozilla icons are still customized, cos i dont see those in there...
[14:00] <bloodski> which is the default chmod then?
[14:00] <bloodski> i've tried 755 and 777
[14:00] <Slart> remoteCTRL: ahh.. good find.. that looks like it.. but the firefox icon could be a custom icon.. as well as the thunderbird one
[14:00] <llutz> bloodski: 640/750
[14:01] <amb_> may he have changed the user chown too?
[14:01] <mmo|> bloodski, ah, i dont really know actually. all files probably didnt have the same chmod....hm
[14:01] <remoteCTRL> Slart: hehe yep agree
[14:01] <remoteCTRL> Slart: gosh this breathe theme also takes my breath away :D http://www.gnome-look.org/content/preview.php?preview=1&id=105873&file1=105873-1.png&file2=105873-2.png&file3=105873-3.png&name=Breathe+Icon+Theme
[14:01] <mmo|> bloodski, but to be able to boot he should set some rights that just lets him read and execute everything I guess
[14:02] <amb_> maybe there is a problem for chmod because he can not reach the .sudo
[14:02] <remoteCTRL> Slart: and i just found where the mozilla icons came from: http://www.gnome-look.org/content/preview.php?preview=1&id=91099&file1=91099-1.jpg&file2=&file3=&name=Royal+Blue

[14:06] <neezer> All it takes is a bit of reading and some time and willingness to learn.
[14:06] <Slart> urthmover: you're welcome
[14:06] <ouyes> anyone here are now using xubuntu ? xfce desktop/
[14:06] <aksci> in my karmic, i can hear from the front audio jack only if i drag the put the balance on eiher left or right, but it doesn't from center!
[14:07] <amb_> does someone know how to boot usb devices from grub2
[14:07] <llutz> neezer: imagine the exitement once your server is 0wned by 3vilhax0rs :)
[14:08] <remoteCTRL> Slart: but wth do those netbook remix themes come from i cant find any of those on gnome-looks
[14:08] <Slart> remoteCTRL: I have no idea.. perhaps they have a different sub area somewhere else..
[14:09] <remoteCTRL> Slart: or even an own homepage..
[14:09] <neezer> llutz: I don't know that is will be.
[14:09] <Xfact> anyone can tell me how how to get back all the default settings back in compiz manager, I am using Karmic.    ?
[14:09] <Pici> fais99d3: Do you have the A/AAAA records setup?
[14:09] <neezer> but I guess if they want access to my music and pictures.....
[14:09] <sleeping`dragon> how do i allow a certain user to run program on port 80 without using sudo or such?
[14:09] <neezer> llutz: with the RSA key i think I'm pretty safe....but who knows.
[14:10] <remoteCTRL> Slart: btw dust karmic doesnt only have an icon set: http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Dust+Karmic+GDM+by+mickyz?content=107613
[14:10] <amb_> mostly if you uninstall all files of a tool like compiz manager it should via reinstall get the defaults.
[14:10] <llutz> neezer: just kidding, the son of a friend just got his vps 0wned and cries loud...
[14:10] <Slart> remoteCTRL: too bad I have mine set to autologin
[14:10] <Xfact> anyone can tell me how to get back all my default settings in compiz manager, (in karmic)?
[14:11] <neezer> vps??
[14:11] <remoteCTRL> Slart: you could add a user and change it every now and then*g*
[14:11] <neezer> lluts: vps?
[14:11] <llutz> neezer: virtual personal server
[14:11] <llutz> neezer: cheap alternative to real root-servers
[14:12] <neezer> llutz: ok....I hope it wasn't cause someone found a crack for RSA keys....I think that is the only way into my machine.
[14:12] <Xfact>  anyone can tell me how to get back all my default settings in compiz manager, (in karmic)?
[14:12] <Guest86879> ???????????
[14:12] <neezer> llutz: I don't know a whole lot about security unfortunately, but I think the only way in past my router is on my ssh port...which is not 22.
[14:13] <amb_> @Xfact did you tried to uninstall the packed with all files and reinstall
[14:13] <remoteCTRL> Slart: but gnome looks could really use a search bar i have to say...
[14:13] <Xfact> amb_, no. well, there any other way not available like 'restore default' or something?
[14:13] <llutz> neezer: naa, we haven't finished examination, but it was most likely a misconfigured ftpd.  changing  ssh-port won't increase security, just minimize logentries
[14:14] <KaffeeJunky123> I'm planning to buy a ThinkPad SL510 (2847-Q9G) and I wanted to ask if somebody knows how good the intel graphiccard is working with the current ubuntu linux kernel
[14:14] <neezer> llutz: is there a way to check that my system is indeed secure?
[14:14] <brontosaurusrex> i have a misterious disk usage problem, says only 20 gigs free, but should be more than 100, any clues on how to figure that out?
[14:14] <amb_> does someone know how to boot usb's
[14:14] <Xfact> thansk a lot i've got the way...to reset
[14:14] <h00k> Can I have someone help me troubleshoot why my Window Decorations are broken on login, and no matter what I have under Appearance -> Visual effects, whenever I login, it's set to "none".  9.10 Karmic Koala, 64bit, nVidia 1.85 drivers. I've removed drivers and reinstalled, this is a fairly fresh install.
[14:14] <Guest86879> 为什么我的bt4升级后火狐不能用了
[14:15] <LjL> !zh | Guest86879
[14:15] <Slart> remoteCTRL: indeed.. they could use some kind of experimental, "looks like this", "search by colors" stuff too
[14:15] <brontosaurusrex> i did move the home dir to another disk at some point
[14:15] <llutz> neezer: make sure that only needed services are running, try to configure them as save as possible, install updates, be watchful. imho the only thing you can do
[14:15] <KaffeeJunky123> amb_: do you want to know how to make a bootable usb or do you want to boot from a usb drive?
[14:16] <remoteCTRL> Slart: well search by name would be a start or at least sort the themes per letters if already alphabetically not by page numbers...
[14:16] <neezer> amb_ there is a utility in System -> administration -> USB startup disk creator. I used it just the other day. It seemed to work quite well, and it even seemed to have a persistant feature that allows you to run it as a live environment, but make changes ie. install packages etc.
[14:16] <KaffeeJunky123> amb_: If you want the later, you'll have to check your bios settings for boot device order
[14:16] <Slart> remoteCTRL: but there is a search form on the left side
[14:16] <amb_> I want to boot allready existing usbsticks or drives
[14:16] <llutz> neezer: some tools to check are netstat, lsof, nmap
[14:16] <remoteCTRL> Slart: there is??? sec
[14:16] <neezer> llutz: what would I be looking for when I run those tools?
[14:16] <Guest86879> 是火狐不能用了
[14:16] <amb_> but since I ve got grub2 it doesn't works any more like it worked with grub
[14:17] <remoteCTRL> Slart: gawd there's no herbs against blindness :D
[14:17] <neezer> llutz: do I need to run them from the server, or can I run them from my laptop that is on the network?
[14:17] <Slart> remoteCTRL: =)
[14:17] <KaffeeJunky123> amb_: this shouldn't have anything to do with your boot loader
[14:17] <llutz> neezer: "what services are listening" , what ports are they using, what adresses/interfaces are they bound to etc.pp.
[14:17] <amb_> there is now way of booting over bios because it is not suported from bios
[14:17] <remoteCTRL> !cn | Guest86879
[14:17] <llutz> neezer: nmap from outside, netstat/lsof from inside server
[14:18] <amb_> I've used grub to boot the devices. since grub2 its not more working
[14:18] <Diverdude> is it possible to make an ls -l, and group the output by filetype?
[14:18] <h00k> Can I have someone help me troubleshoot why my Window Decorations are broken on login, and no matter what I have under Appearance -> Visual effects, whenever I login, it's set to "none".  9.10 Karmic Koala, 64bit, nVidia 1.85 drivers. I've removed drivers and reinstalled, this is a fairly fresh install.
[14:18] <llutz> neezer: also check your router, what ports does it forward, what services run on the router etc.
[14:18] <neezer> can I use | nano at the end to put netstat and lsof into a text editor so that I can take some time to look at it?
[14:18] <llutz> neezer: no need to be paranoid, just be a bit careful
[14:18] <KaffeeJunky123> amb_: so you want to boot an usb drive with grub2?
[14:19] <amb_> like root (hd1,0), chainload +1, boot
[14:19] <amb_> yes thats what I want
[14:19] <quantumsix> Nube to Ubuntu/Linux - 2 ?'s 1) Did a Wubi install, if I take the time to setup everything will I be able to create an image that I can do fresh installs from?
[14:19] <Diverdude> is it possible to make an ls -l, and group the output by filetype?
[14:19] <LjL> neezer: no. use | less
[14:19] <pwnedulongtime> h00k, .xsession-error
[14:19] <pwnedulongtime> s
[14:19] <llutz> neezer: or redirect output to textfile
[14:20] <karncool> hi all
[14:20] <KaffeeJunky123> amb_: http://grub.enbug.org/USBSupport?highlight=(usb)
[14:20] <KaffeeJunky123> amb_: checkout that site, I'm pretty sure this is what you're looking for
[14:20] <AntoBinishK> Hi, i removed python-support by mistake, now i cant able to do anything
[14:20] <Diverdude> is it possible to make an ls -l, and group the output by filetype?
[14:21] <neezer> llutz: the only port forwarded by my router is the ssh port...I do have mediatomb running, but I don't think that goes outside of my router, just on my internal network...I'm not sure about that though.
[14:21] <neezer> netstat | less
[14:21] <AntoBinishK> Hi, i removed python-support by mistake, now i cant able to do anything. i cant able to install or uninstall anything. Also GUI is not working..
[14:21] <llutz> neezer: netstat -tulpen
[14:22] <pwnedulongtime> Diverdude, try the --sort option
[14:22] <amb_> manually I can pickup root (hd1,1)
[14:22] <amb_> ok, i will try to load this modules first
[14:22] <quantumsix> 2nd ? - Where do I get csh for ubuntu and how do I install it?
[14:22] <amb_> thanks for the tip.
[14:22] <ubuntunewbie> but it required root aceess , i wanted to know is it dangerous ? xhost +   su root    export DISPLAY=:0
[14:22] <karncool> Can i use i386 software in my computer with ubuntu 9.10 amd 64
[14:22] <pwnedulongtime> Diverdude, ls -la --sort=extension
[14:23] <llutz> ubuntunewbie: it is, xhost + is evil
[14:23] <AntoBinishK> http://pastie.org/774831
[14:23] <llutz> ubuntunewbie: restrict it to needed hosts
[14:23] <AntoBinishK> http://pastie.org/774831 how can i fix it?
[14:23] <xiong> Diverdude, (1) You might consider waiting more than a minute between asks. Sometimes it takes awhile for the chan to turn over -- for new people to drop by and see what's new. (2) Not sure what you mean exactly by 'filetype'.
[14:23] <AntoBinishK> please someone help me
[14:23] <rob_p> AntoBinishK: Get a shell and type, "sudo apt-get install python"
[14:24] <ubuntunewbie> llutz: I am not sure but when installing it need to use those command whichI feel it's quite dangerous
[14:24] <AntoBinishK> that is also not working :(
[14:24] <llutz> ubuntunewbie: that command is never needed
[14:24] <pwnedulongtime> xiong, he means file extension...there is no sorting by mimetype
[14:24] <rob_p> AntoBinishK: What doesn't work, exactly?  What errors do you get?
[14:24] <rob_p> AntoBinishK: Can you get a shell?
[14:24] <neezer> llutz: is having upnp enabled on my router a problem?
[14:25] <llutz> neezer: imho yes, it "might" cause problems as you lose control about forwarded ports etc
[14:25] <sleeping`dragon> can i poke a whole in my laptop's ubuntu to allow myself to run programs on port 80?
[14:25] <sleeping`dragon> hole*
[14:25] <sleeping`dragon> :P
[14:26] <llutz> sleeping`dragon: ports <1024 root-only
[14:26] <AntoBinishK> Thanks rob_p, actually i uninstalled python-support, that cause this issue. when i try to install python i am getting this error http://pastie.org/774835
[14:26] <sleeping`dragon> llutz, yes, but there must a hack...
[14:26] <quantumsix> ok - answered my own 2nd ? now for the first - ne 1?
[14:26] <xiong> Diverdude, If you mean sort by file extension, then $ ls -lX
[14:27] <ubuntunewbie> llutz: http://pastebin.com/d169947dd installing printer application
[14:27] <xiong> Diverdude, more generally, you might try $ man ls -- I have found great wisdom in man pages.
[14:27] <llutz> ubuntunewbie: stupid ignorant idiot who wrote that
[14:28] <aksci> in my karmic, i can hear from the front audio jack only if i drag the put the balance on eiher left or right, but it doesn't from center!
[14:28] <seyacat> hi ubuntus
[14:28] <Wikkedfin> will ubuntu server run on the acer aspire revo?
[14:28] <seyacat> do you know how to enable bluetooth audio service?
[14:28] <xiong> aksci, That's interesting. Does that happen only with mono sources or with stereo, too?
[14:28] <Codenut> Hey gang, I have a question
[14:28] <llutz> sleeping`dragon: patch the kernel
[14:29] <neezer> llutz: it turns out that I don't need upnp enabled! I just turned it off, and my mediatomb seems to be working great still. I have my ps3 hooked up to the router and it plays the media through my reciever...it is a pretty nifty setup I think.
[14:29] <xiong> Codenut, I have an answer: 42. It may not be the answer to your question. ;)
[14:29] <rob_p> AntoBinishK: I'm guessing you will need to manually grab the .deb for it and install it that way.
[14:29] <fumbles> say if I installed with a jaunty release but want to upgrade to karmic? apt-get dist-upgrade is not working for me
[14:30] <ubuntunewbie> llutz: it's from TurboPrint
[14:30] <llutz> neezer: i guess you only would need it if trying to access from WAN
[14:30] <Wikkedfin>  anyone: will ubuntu server run on the acer aspire revo?
[14:30] <Codenut> Who does not know the answer to life the universe and everything, Douglas was brilliant.
[14:30] <llutz> ubuntunewbie: bad enough
[14:30] <neezer> llutz: WAN?  from outside of my local network?
[14:30] <ubuntunewbie> llutz: :(
[14:30] <llutz> neezer: yes
[14:31] <Codenut> My question is that my main hard drive is now full, can I just  put a drive in and let ubuntu "automajically" do the rest?
[14:31] <AntoBinishK> rob_p: manually grep python_support ? python is already installed on my machine
[14:31] <ubuntunewbie> llutz: no luck to install printer driver , possible of any work around without using those command ?
[14:31] <rob_p> AntoBinishK: python-support, I guess... maybe that's a meta-package.  I dunno...
[14:31] <neezer> llutz: most of the places I go for work only have cheap satellite remote internet. trying to stream music through the connection would be futile at best. I don't need to stream, and I can use my ssh tunnel to transfer any files I need from the server. Thanks a lot for all the help!
[14:32] <AntoBinishK> rob_p: thank you i will try
[14:32] <llutz> ubuntunewbie: at least it should be limited like "xhost +localhost", but i don't think it will fix your issues
[14:32] <rob_p> AntoBinishK: Ok, good luck.
[14:34] <fumbles> I feel like a retard now....right on help.ubuntu.com....

[14:39] <drizzt__> what should I install to be able to customize how qt3/qt4 application look?
[14:39] <erUSUL> student: do not see why not; check the tools and versions you use in fedora and see if they aviable in ubuntu
[14:40] <erUSUL> drizzt__: qt4-config ?
[14:40] <drizzt__> erUSUL, does it work for qt3 too?
[14:40] <erUSUL> drizzt__: there is a qt3-config too
[14:43] <drizzt__> erUSUL, and there are no qt4-config and qt3-config packages
[14:43] <Slart> Is there a way to use a path for an icon that automatically points to the currently selected icon theme? I mean something like /usr/current_theme/blabla.svg or something like that

[14:51] <jonas3> anybody know how?
[14:51] <Codenut> Sorry, I may had an answer before.
[14:51] <jonas3> :)
[14:51] <Codenut> If I add an other hard drive, Will Ubuntu just use it automatically?
[14:52] <h00k> Codenut: it will see it, but you'll have to tell it where
[14:52] <h00k> Codenut: you can do that in fsck, or you can use it in /media
[14:52] <h00k> Codenut: not fsck, but fstab
[14:52] <rob_p> Codenut: One line added to your /etc/fstab will allow Ubuntu to use it.
[14:54] <Slart> Codenut: you don't really need to put that line in the fstab either.. it will still show up in nautilus and so on..

[14:56] <the_real_dave> Hey, I'm having some trouble with Compiz. On my user, the one created during the install, Compiz works perfectly. However, on the user that I created after the install, it won't work. Setting Effects in Appearance returns "Desktop Effects cannot be enabled" and compiz --replace doesn't seem to work either. Any suggestions? :(

[15:01] <subdriven> So, I put 9.10 into hibernate last night (first time) and this morning my networking doesn't work at all.
[15:01] <subdriven> I've tried restarting the service, rebooting, cold booting, dhcp, static routes ...
[15:01] <subdriven> any thoughts?
[15:01] <forceflow> subdriven: rfkill list ?
[15:02] <forceflow> maybe it's hard/softblocked
[15:02] <subdriven> hmm. didn't think of that. I'm trying a live CD now to be sure it's not my card
[15:02] <drizzt__> llutz, not my case
[15:02] <forceflow> if it's hardblocked, the livecd wouldn't work either
[15:03] <forceflow> subdriven: laptop or desktop?

[15:08] <MASARUwota> Dunkirk: a preinstallation of it. lol
[15:08] <MASARUwota> Dunkirk: and theming
[15:08] <rob_p> wookienz: Why are you adding the default route via cli?  First make sure your network comes up working with a sane configuration.  Then start playing with adding/changing routing table entries.
[15:09] <wookienz> rob_p: my system is cli. dhcp is fine, gets right address. ping inside the network no problem, and gateway... just not outside
[15:09] <aguitel> anyone have error with emesene in jaunty ?
[15:10] <forceflow> subdriven: sure it isn't disabled in BIOS or something?
[15:10] <rob_p> wookienz: Then your DHCP server is misconfigured if your default gateway is not getting set or being set to the wrong IP.
[15:10] <Slart> wookienz: and of course the router works if you boot into any other os?
[15:10] <Slart> wookienz: or change "router" to "internet connection"
[15:10] <wookienz> firewall actually...but yes all other SO no problems.
[15:10] <tony_> Hey! what would u guys use to check for updates to a web page
[15:10] <forceflow> tony_: RSS?
[15:10] <Slart> tony_: wget + md5? or a firefox plugin
[15:11] <subdriven> forceflow: maybe, but unless putting into hibernation would do that, it shouldn't be
[15:11] <h00k> Can I have someone help me troubleshoot why my Window Decorations are broken on login, and no matter what I have under Appearance -> Visual effects, whenever I login, it's set to "none".  9.10 Karmic Koala, 64bit, nVidia 1.85 drivers. I've removed drivers and reinstalled, this is a fairly fresh install. I have my .xsession-errors here: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/355527/ Perhaps I have something wrong in my gconf and its not starting nautilus
[15:11] <Slart> tony_: personally I use the "update scanner"-plugin
[15:11] <forceflow> subdriven: I know it's unlikely, but doesn't hurt to check :)
[15:12] <tony_> forceflow: its a bunch of regular webpages, i would like some kind of notification by mail for example -
[15:12] <forceflow> tony_: check firefox extensions then
[15:12] <drizzt__> btbtw how can I speed Ubunru up? I have 256M RAM on this machine and it's slow as hell
[15:12] <tony_> Slart: is that a firefox plugin?
[15:12] <subdriven> forceflow: yea, since the live CD isn't working either, that's my next step
[15:12] <forceflow> drizzt__: try running a lighter desktop manager. (xcfe, openbox, ...)
[15:12] <Slart> wookienz: well.. I would check the default gateway as well.. it seems to be the obvious thing to check first at least
[15:12] <Slart> tony_: yes
[15:12] <forceflow> drizzt__: and disable all unnecessary services
[15:13] <unimatrix9> hi there
[15:13] <MASARUwota> drizzt_: use a tiling wm or a lightweight one, trust me, it will be FAAAAAAAAAASTER
[15:13] <MASARUwota> :/
[15:13] <amee2k> i'm using EAGLE from the repo, but i can't load my own schematics. doing so fails with "Load error 291". i'm sure the file is not corrupted and i'm using the repo version with freeware license. (in fact i saved it two seconds before on the same system) has anyone else experienced this before?
[15:13] <blakkheim> drizzt__: use an ubuntu minimal install with a light window manager
[15:13] <MASARUwota> !hi|unimatrix9
[15:13] <unimatrix9> how can i see what alsa is using to record audio input signals?
[15:13] <wookienz> Slart: it is fine... other SO on the network have no issues. This CLI based ubunutu mahine just rebooted it self so noeed to being it back up. Def. a machine problem, not pfirewall
[15:14] <drizzt__> blakkheim, minimal install is without X?
[15:14] <steal> hi all, when i try to use my webcam on aMsn it work well on device /dev/video0:0 but when i try to start camorama it won't start the error is: "Could not connect to video device (/dev/video0) Please check connection.".
[15:14] <blakkheim> drizzt__: yes
[15:14] <Slart> wookienz: but everything works inside the network.. ping, ssh, browsing and so on?
[15:15] <toader> hi, can i shrink the size of one volume, and add it to another volume online?
[15:15] <Slart> wookienz: what kind of error do you get if you try pinging something like 8.8.8.8
[15:15] <tony_> forceflow: Slart: Hmm well there doexnt seem to be a plugin like that for ff 3.5   -  if you were to build a script for checking updates - is wget/sed the way to go?
[15:16] <Slart> toader: not online.. not with ext2,ext3,ext4 at least.. you can do it but you'll have to unmount the partitions
[15:16] <jbwiv> so I hosed my Karmic system yesterday with apt-get dist-upgrade. It won't boot...acts like grub isn't installed. The error is "You must load a kernel first. Failed to boot default entries"). It flashes can't find C/H/S just before this. I boot up into the rescue CD, run update-grub and grub-install and everything works great, but on restart, same issue. Can anyone help?
[15:16] <Slart> tony_: wget with md5/crc32 might work.. sed for extra bling bling
[15:16] <subdriven> forceflow: Checked BIOS, they are on. However, set it to check the cable. Will see if that says anything
[15:17] <luist> #nbtk
[15:17] <napster> Why does the package "Linux" marked not installed on my system?
[15:17] <unimatrix9> how do i get an alsa device list form command line?
[15:17] <Slart> tony_: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3362
[15:17] <Slart> !info linux
[15:17] <przemo_one> hi
[15:17] <subdriven> cable checks are good
[15:17] <apanda> llutz cron-apt doesnt seem to do more than what i wanted to do if i read it right
[15:18] <Slart> napster: I think there are linux-generic and linux-server-generic etc.. so different kernel packages for different flavours
[15:18] <Slart> napster: not really sure what that package is meant to do
[15:18] <hareldvd> Looking for a land phone line recorder.
[15:18] <napster> Slart: But there is something called linux-image!
[15:19] <Goliath> how can i decrypt something with the FISH cipher?
[15:19] <forceflow> subdriven: sure there's nothing wrong with your DHCP server then?
[15:19] <Slart> !info linux-generic
[15:19] <Guest45716> hey there
[15:19] <Slart> !info linux-image
[15:19] <apanda> llutz except that i should add -y to the upgrade :)
[15:20] <Slart> napster: yes, there are lots of meta packages for the kernels..
[15:20] <protojay> Is there a way to download the 2.6.32 image with apt-get?
[15:20] <Slart> protojay: not for karmic, afaik
[15:20] <subdriven> forceflow: no, it's handing out to my other system
[15:20] <crisb2010> i am sitting behind a proxy and added http_proxy to my bash.bashrc file in /etc/. unfortunately it still doesn't work. is there another place where i have to put that variable?
[15:20] <subdriven> forceflow: and setting static doesn't work either
[15:20] <MASARUwota> protojay? what do you want to do? you can get the sourcecode at http://kernel.org afaik
[15:21] <napster> Slart: ok, tnx
[15:21] <erUSUL> !ppa | protojay there are some ppa with that kernel
[15:21] <tony_> Slart: thanks! but i need to be away from the computer.. and crc check would check a part of the page w. contains the date... so maybe schedule wget->Sed relevant part->text file & then compare w old file?
[15:22] <Slart> tony_: that sounds good.. wget -> sed .. perhaps run diff on that.. or use a checksum..that ought to work
[15:23] <tony_> Slart: what is the name of the program that runs checksum?(svf?)
[15:23] <subdriven> head->desk
[15:24] <Slart> tony_: there's md5sum, crc32 .. those just calculate the checksum on a stream sent to them.. (ls | md5sum is an example)  for using sfv files you can use cfv I think
[15:24] <Slart> !info cfv
[15:24] <Slart> !info md5sum
[15:24] <Slart> bah
[15:25] <Slart> tony, the command exists at least
[15:25] <dev305> I was install ubuntu9.10 in ubuntu9.04 now i want to remove ubuntu9.10, how i remove
[15:25] <DJones> !md5sum
[15:25] <tony_> Slart: thanks in bunches
[15:25] <Slart> tony_: you're welcome
[15:25] <dev305>  I was install ubuntu9.10 in ubuntu9.04 now i want to remove ubuntu9.10, how i remove
[15:25] <unop> tony_,   most webservers return a "Last-Modified:" field as part of the HTTP header
[15:26] <unop> tony_, you could check the value returned by this against your record
[15:26] <dev305>  I was install ubuntu9.10 in ubuntu9.04 now i want to remove ubuntu9.10, how i remove
[15:26] <LjL> !repeat | dev305
[15:26] <dev305> ok
[15:26] <tony_> unop: thx!
[15:27] <dev305>  I was install ubuntu9.10 in ubuntu9.04 now i want to remove ubuntu9.10, how i remove

Can anyone help?
[15:27] <LjL> dev305: your question makes not the slightest bit of sense, and that isn't helped by repeating it like a machine gun.
[15:27] <crisb2010> does nobody have an idea what the problem with the proxy might be?
[15:28] <dev305> oh
[15:28] <dev305> i want to remove ubuntu 9.10
[15:28] <jerico_> LjL: That made me laugh
[15:28] <dev305> what i do
[15:28] <LjL> crisb2010: does it work if you manually type export http_proxy=blah ?
[15:29] <LjL> dev305: just install something else onto its partition.
[15:29] <dev305> ok
[15:29] <LjL> dev305: if you want to downgrade from 9.10 to 9.04, you need to reinstall.
[15:29] <DJones> dev305: If you've upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10, the only option you've got is to reinstall
[15:29] <crisb2010> LjL: i just tried that, this doesn't work either
[15:29] <wookienz> Slart: "Network unreachable" for any ping
[15:29] <LjL> crisb2010: what program are you trying it with?
[15:29] <LjL> crisb2010: also, are you specifying the port, too?
[15:30] <mikey> Hey I have a few questions about the bash terminal, if anyone has some spare time :3 ?
[15:30] <crisb2010> LjL: i am in the terminal
[15:30] <Slart> wookienz: odd.. not really sure what to check.. perhaps someone else has an idea
[15:30] <h00k> Can I have someone help me troubleshoot why my Window Decorations are broken on login, and no matter what I have under Appearance -> Visual effects, whenever I login, it's set to "none".  9.10 Karmic Koala, 64bit, nVidia 1.85 drivers. I've removed drivers and reinstalled, this is a fairly fresh install. I have my .xsession-errors here: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/355527/
[15:30] <Slart> mikey: just ask
[15:30] <crisb2010> LjL: and i tried to do a simple ping and an apt-get update
[15:30] <wookienz> Slart: yes it is wierd....i have done what i usuallly do!
[15:30] <dev305> no i have both versiond in my desktop
[15:30] <LjL> crisb2010: "ping" ignores any proxy (since "ping" is not about http). as to apt-get, i think i recall you need to set a specific config option for it - moment
[15:31] <mikey> kk, well when I update my /etc/bash.bashrc it seemingly updates my terminal (eg; echo statements etc), but altering the PS1 line does not seem to alter my colours.
[15:31] <dev305> i want to remove one version
[15:31] <crisb2010> LjL: i guess that the software center doesn't work has to do with that too, right?
[15:31] <ChogyDan> How can I open an encrypted zip file?  It says: "unsupported compression method 99"
[15:31] <LjL> crisb2010: yeah, software center just uses apt
[15:32] <mikey> ChogyDan there is an apt-get for that, can't quite remember it though 1 tick
[15:32] <mikey> sudo apt-get install unrar
[15:32] <ChogyDan> mikey: thanks, I will try that
[15:33] <LjL> crisb2010: try adding the line « Acquire::http::Proxy "http://server:port" » to your /etc/apt/apt.conf
[15:33] <crisb2010> LjL: let me try
[15:33] <drizzt__> I'm trying to mount a WinXP network share, but getting NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE despite valid name/pass. The same share is accessible from Windows, what can cause this?
[15:33] <ChogyDan> mikey: hmm, I already have that, Im going to try 7zip.  I totally forgot to google my error!  /facepalm
[15:34] <mikey> yeah I ily 7zip for windows
[15:34] <crisb2010> LjL: was already in there, perhaps because i set the proxy system wide
[15:34] <LjL> hmm
[15:34] <vallhalla81> good day all
[15:34] <LjL> crisb2010: are you positive the proxy server itself works, and doesn't need authentication?
[15:34] <papna> I'm running Hardy and can't play mp3s. I've installed ubuntu-restricted-extras and gstremear0.10-plugins*. I've tried in rhythmbox and totem.
[15:34] <crisb2010> LjL: jep
[15:35] <LjL> crisb2010: does it work with any program - like w3m or wget or something?
[15:35] <mikey> papna: you using amarok?
[15:35] <papna> mikey, No.
[15:35] <mikey> as I recently had a problem with amarok and the fix was randomly easy
[15:35] <mikey> ah k'
[15:36] <papna> mikey, And it's definitely not applicable?
[15:36] <mikey> papna: hmmm I'm trying to remember the specifics
[15:37] <ChogyDan> mikey: fwiw, installing p7zip-full worked for me.  Maybe that was just the compression of the file.  thanks!
[15:37] <crisb2010> LjL: now it works
[15:37] <crisb2010> LjL: thanks for the help
[15:37] <mikey> ChogyDan: haha didn't have much to do with me ;P
[15:37] <mikey> papna check your config
[15:37] <mikey> for the mp3 program
[15:38] <mikey> what sound driver/card does it say it is using?

[15:40] <erUSUL> h00k: /var/log/Xorg.0.log may be needed too
[15:40] <mikey> can someone help me with my unresponse bash.bashrc issue D:?
[15:41] <mikey> unresponsive*
[15:41] <geissevogler> yeah
[15:41] <geissevogler> its your harddisk
[15:41] <vallhalla81> mikey: can ypu pastbin your .bashrc?
[15:41] <mikey> yeah brb
[15:42] <ink> this is an odd problem; i used to have a ~/.xmodmap file that swapped ESC with ~ (my old unicomp 104 keyboard).  It died, and now I have a crappy generic USB keyboard, but I can't get gnome to forget about the swap
[15:42] <Madcatz> Good afternoon everybody, I have a server set up with Ubuntu 9.10 on it, I have several physical seperate hard disks, I am wondering if I can merge these all in to one gigantic partition or have when one hdd is full, move on to the next one? Having a quick scan through gparted I am unable to do so, any ideas?
[15:42] <erUSUL> !lvm | Madcatz you can use lvm
[15:42] <jerico_> Does anyone know how to change power options with only gnome-core installed?  Is there a config file I can edit?
[15:42] <simple_> hi all
[15:42] <h00k> erUSUL: it'd be here, if you're interested: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/355568/
[15:42] <simple_> how can i disable NotifyOSD on ubuntu ?
[15:42] <coz_> Madcatz,  if no one can help here try  ##linux channel
[15:42] <jerico_> I want to prevent my screen from shutting off.
[15:42] <mikey> vallhalla81: http://pastebin.org/74933
[15:43] <goathens> I dualboot with winXP and need to to a reinstallation of that OS. It *always* seems to overwrite GRUB when I do that.  What's a good solution to this?  I'm considering nlite to slipstream the installation- can I make this skip the MBR?
[15:43] <vallhalla81> mikey: just reading it now one moment
[15:43] <h00k> Can I have someone help me troubleshoot why my Window Decorations are broken on login, and no matter what I have under Appearance -> Visual effects, whenever I login, it's set to "none".  9.10 Karmic Koala, 64bit, nVidia 1.85 drivers. I've removed drivers and reinstalled, this is a fairly fresh install. I have my .xsession-errors here: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/355527/ and Xorg.0.log http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/355568/
[15:43] <mikey> cheers mate
[15:43] <coz_> goathens,  you would have
[15:43] <mikey> goathens: I tend to install XP then Nix afterward
[15:43] <mikey> as ubuntu cleverly fixes the grub partition
[15:43] <mikey> I think that's what I did..
[15:43] <h00k> goathens: make sure you don't have any third party backup or recovery software, sometimes they like to overwrite the MBR
[15:43] <coz_> goathens,   you would have to reinstall grub2      you might get more help on  #grub channel
[15:43] <erUSUL> h00k: there is no erros there ... maybe you ca try to run « compiz --replace » from a terminal and see if it is some error reported ?
[15:43] <goathens> mikey: yeah that's what i always do.
[15:43] <Madcatz> erUSUL doesn't LVM mean that I cannot have my root hard drive, and then the other 4 hdds as one whole unit, I thought LVM would make it every hdd as one unit?
[15:43] <debiant> simple: http://www.killertechtips.com/2009/04/26/disable-notifications-in-ubuntu-904-jaunty-jackalope/
[15:44] <JyZyXEL> does 9.10 work on eeepc?
[15:44] <Madcatz> erUSUL, I want my first HDD as the home folder etc and root files, then the 4 other hdds as storage on a server
[15:44] <simple_> thnks debiant , ill look for it
[15:44] <vallhalla81> mikey: what problem are you finding with bash?
[15:44] <erUSUL> Madcatz: lvm can merge multiple paritions/hd in one volume that's the point (among many others) of it
[15:44] <goathens> Thanks for the suggestions. I'll just read up on reinstalling grub.
[15:45] <mikey> vallhalla81: It prints out the echo's and text output perfectly, however I can not colorise my terminal so to speak
[15:45] <Madcatz> erUSUL is there anything simpler than that?
[15:45] <erUSUL> Madcatz: no that i know of
[15:46] <vallhalla81> mikey: what terminal are you using?
[15:46] <mikey> erm
[15:46] <mikey> does ps?
[15:46] <mikey> output that?
[15:46] <mikey> (noob)
[15:46] <FloodBot1> mikey: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:46] <JyZyXEL> does 9.10 work on eeepc?
[15:46] <Madcatz> erUSUL so you install lvm before ubuntu?
[15:46] <client2> hsh
[15:47] <erUSUL> Madcatz: no you can create a lvm volume after installing ubuntu afaik.
[15:47] <mikey> it's from a fresh install of ubuntu karmic, so... normal bash? gnome-bash?
[15:47] <vallhalla81> mikey: ok one moment
[15:48] <jbwiv> my Ubuntu Karmic system was somehow hosed yesterday with apt-get dist-upgrade. It won't boot...acts like grub isn't installed. The error is "You must load a kernel first. Failed to boot default entries"). It flashes can't find C/H/S just before this. I boot up into the rescue CD, run update-grub and grub-install and everything works great, but on restart, same issue. Can anyone help?
[15:48] <sephy> JyZyXEL: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EeePC
[15:49] <thiebaude> jbwiv, maybe you might have to re-install it
[15:49] <vallhalla81> mikey: this link should explain all you need to get them going if you get stuck will be here still
[15:49] <vallhalla81> http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Color_Bash_Prompt
[15:49] <mikey> cheers mate brb
[15:49] <jbwiv> thiebaude: re-install ubuntu? Why exactly, if I can get into the rescue cd? I need to figure out why grub doesn't seem to be installing properly to the MBR....
[15:50] <thiebaude> jbwiv, its just a suggestion
[15:50] <jbwiv> thiebaude, thx
[15:50] <thiebaude> yw
[15:50] <h00k> erUSUL: Well, it did crash, but the history was left in the terminal, I had to log back out and then back in, I'll see if I can reproduce it
[15:51] <Madcatz> erUSUL is there nothing I can do in the ubuntu install to make it use the all the hdd as one ?
[15:51] <erUSUL> h00k: next time do « compiz --replace &> compiz-error-log.txt » to capture the errors
[15:51] <h00k> erUSUL: yeah, when I did this, there were none.
[15:52] <erUSUL> Madcatz: dunno i think only the server install has the option of using lvm during install but i could be wrong
[15:52] <h00k> erUSUL: I am now in a fresh session, I can try to pipe it to a file
[15:52] <h00k> erUSUL: so, window decorations are now broken
[15:52] <Madcatz> erUSUL ok i will give it a try, thanks for your help
[15:52] <erUSUL> no problem
[15:54] <haresh> hello can i ask how can i convert a pdf file in to word or excle to do editing to it
[15:55] <debiant> haresh: http://www.pdftoword.com/
[15:57] <haresh> debiant, i tryed it already not working
[15:58] <debiant> haresh: what's it not doing?  Is it a drmed or password protected pdf?
[15:58] <haresh> nope its not
[15:58] <debiant> haresh: have you tried pdftotext?
[15:59] <haresh> its a fiels got alot of info and tables and stuffs
[16:00] <erUSUL> !info pdfedit
[16:00] <ScoobyDoo> Where is the default icon for archives on ubuntu?
[16:01] <h00k> erUSUL: starting from freshly-logged-in-session and running compiz --replace, I get: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/355578/
[16:01] <h00k> erUSUL: and compiz does, in fact, work, change Desktop Effects to the third box.
[16:02] <debiant> haresh: your best bet in that case is probably an html conversion, but the format is still probably going to be screwed up... pdf does not convert well.
[16:02] <erUSUL> h00k: so the problemis that it does not work at first log ...  use compiz fusion icon
[16:02] <haresh> u want me send u and let u see the files ?
[16:02] <h00k> erUSUL: I can, but that just seems to be a bandaid for something I didn't previously need
[16:03] <erUSUL> h00k: yep :/ dunno what else to do sorry
[16:03] <marc__> huu
[16:03] <marc__> hu
[16:03] <h00k> erUSUL: it's alright, I'll keep asking around
[16:03] <acicula> h00k: file a BR on launchpad and make a post on the forum, seems its a bit too tricky to solve via irc :/
[16:03] <debiant> haresh: I'm going to have to leave in a minute, you might also try calibre as it is pretty good at conversion.
[16:04] <haresh> huh
[16:04] <haresh> how can i do that

[16:08] <Sonderblade_> in ubuntu 9.04 pressing ctrl+c in a terminal doesnt immediately kill the process and you have to press ctrl+c multiple times. is there a way to fix that?
[16:09] <Aled> I'm unable to reorder tabs in Firefox D:
[16:09] <acicula> Sonderblade_: means the program is intercepting the ctrl-c and trying to shutdown nicely
[16:09] <Slart> Sonderblade_: is that different from other distros?
[16:09] <Aled> Nor am I able to in Chatzilla
[16:10] <Sonderblade_> acicula: i doubt it, the same programs used to terminate immediately when ctrl+c was pressed
[16:10] <Sonderblade_> Slart: it is different from how it used to be
[16:10] <jbwiv> my Ubuntu Karmic system was somehow hosed yesterday with apt-get dist-upgrade. It won't boot...acts like grub isn't installed. The error is "You must load a kernel first. Failed to boot default entries"). It flashes can't find C/H/S just before this. I boot up into the rescue CD, run update-grub and grub-install and everything works great, but on restart, same issue. Can anyone help?
[16:11] <acicula> jwulf: tried apt-get install --reinstall the kernel image package
[16:11] <debiant> jbwiv: have you tried running them once your booted off the hd?
[16:11] <bloodski> two questions, when using hdmi, the screen is always bigger than the tv can display (some pixels not showing) i can fix this in the tv settings, but it's okay outside ubuntu, any ideas? question two; can i change the theme to look more like windows 7 or similar?
[16:11] <raven_> which tool can help me to display costs/volume of mobile-internet-dialups?
[16:11] <jbwiv> debiant, running what exactly? and do you mean booted of the cd? Because I can't boot off the hd
[16:12] <KaffeeJunky123> Hi, I want to print over a cups server with Ubuntu 9.04, I can find the printer in the network but when I try to print something ubuntu tells me that the printer is not connected
[16:12] <KaffeeJunky123> The Printer is Connected to another pc wich shares it via a cups server
[16:12] <maverick_> how can i hide the native xfce apps from the gnome menu and vice-versa?
[16:13] <debiant> jbwiv: your initial post made it sound like once you ran grub-install you were able to boot off the hd once, can you pastebin your /boot/grub/menu.lst
[16:13] <Guest4252> Hi
[16:13] <acicula> maverick_: edit the menu
[16:13] <maverick_> acicula: ok..
[16:14] <jbwiv> debiant, I was able to yesterday once using the Karmic live cd. Can't even get that to work anymore
[16:14] <Guest4252> Can anyone guide me in installing a new package
[16:14] <Guest4252> ???
[16:14] <Guest4252> Im a new bie
[16:14] <Guest4252> :-(
[16:14] <jbwiv> debiant, can't paste menu.lst because I can't get X running (sigh). Let me figure out a way
[16:14] <FloodBot1> Guest4252: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:14] <Gnea> Guest4252: what package?
[16:14] <ende> I can't make XP magically transform into linux :(
[16:14] <debiant> jbwiv: can you not mount the drive from the livecd?
[16:15] <Guest4252> Mysql
[16:16] <the_real_dave> Hey, I'm having some trouble with Compiz. On my user, the one created during the install, Compiz works perfectly. However, on the user that I created after the install, it won't work. Setting Effects in Appearance returns "Desktop Effects cannot be enabled" and compiz --replace doesn't seem to work either. Any suggestions? :(
[16:16] <Guest4252> its like i want to install it using terminal where can i find the package name???
[16:16] <acicula> Guest4252: apt-cache search mysql
[16:16] <maco> the_real_dave: are you trying to use it with both users logged in at once?
[16:17] <acicula> !mysql > Guest4252
[16:17] <the_real_dave> maco: no, one user logged in
[16:17] <jbwiv> debiant, yes, loading the cd up now
[16:17] <ende> Hmm.. the website says that a .img is available from the download page but I can only find the .iso download
[16:17] <maco> the_real_dave: ok. i dont know then
[16:17] <the_real_dave> maco: thanks all the sam
[16:17] <acicula> ende: isos are good
[16:17] <the_real_dave> *same
[16:18] <ende> acicula: aye but I'm trying to create my usb 'boot disk' from Mac
[16:18] <ende> using Disk Utility, which requires a .img as the source
[16:19] <debiant> jbwiv: sorry, I have to go... someone should be able to help once you have the menu.lst
[16:19] <acicula> !usbstick
[16:19] <acicula> !usb > ende
[16:21] <Guest4252> ok
[16:21] <Guest4252> ok
[16:22] <ende> thanks, ive read those.
[16:22] <acicula> ende: explains how you make a boot stick from the iso on the mac
[16:22] <ende> Im gunna try downloading the iso again.  Should have probably md5'd it.  I was able to create a VM from it in VMWare however
[16:22] <acicula> thats not working?
[16:23] <ende> from that page: "Note: this procedure requires an .img file; it will not work with an .iso file. [Note: this should explain/link to how to obtain an .img file]"
[16:23] <ende> hence my question ;)
[16:24] <ende> I don't care much how I get my usb stick working as long as it works.. I'm also trying to do it via ubuntu VM.
[16:24] <blakkheim> ende: that sounds more like a mac-specific question than an ubuntu one
[16:24] <ende> Just tried to boot off of it on a 3rd pc however and nada… so might be the download
[16:24] <theadmin> How can one reset file associations to default?
[16:24] <NateW> does anyone else have a dell studio xps? im asking because it keeps locking up (i7, 9GB ram). i think it might be an issue with the motherboard but i would like to rule out it being ubuntu.
[16:24] <ende> I'm not tied to a mac solution here :)
[16:24] <ende> will come back if I have more Qs. Thanks
[16:25] <blakkheim> ende: what i meant was you should try a mac-specific channel
[16:25] <acicula> ende: heh usefull :/
[16:25] <ende> ah
[16:25] <fahadsadah> NateW: Firstly, bloody hell!
[16:25] <fahadsadah> How much did that thing cost?
[16:25] <acicula> ende: dunno about where to get an .img
[16:25] <fahadsadah> NateW: RE your problem, what makes you think it's hardware?
[16:25] <NateW> fahadsadah: $1600 including a 24" monitor
[16:25] <h00k> erUSUL, acicula: FYI, I removed ~/.local/share/applications/compiz.desktop, logged out, back in, and everything is back to normal.
[16:25] <ikonia> !info trickle
[16:26] <acicula> ende: VM and then unetbooting for usb creation should work
[16:26] <ende> acicula: yeah, I think I'll have to stick to figuring out a way with the .iso for now
[16:26] <acicula> h00k: cool :)
[16:26] <erUSUL> h00k: congrats and noted
[16:26] <ende> ah yeah, I read about unetbooting somwhere but forgot what it was called.  Thanks, I'll check that out.
[16:26] <acicula> h00k: so it was starting compiz all the time or?
[16:26] <blakkheim> acicula: actually it probably won't since he is using a mac
[16:26] <acicula> blakkheim: VM
[16:26] <h00k> acicula: it was supposed to be doing this, but wasn't
[16:26] <blakkheim> acicula: then why would you suggest unetbootin?
[16:26] <bloodski> two questions, when using hdmi, the screen is always bigger than the tv can display (some pixels not showing) i can fix this in the tv settings, but it's okay outside ubuntu, any ideas? question two; can i change the theme to look more like windows 7 or similar?
[16:26] <fahadsadah> NateW: Is there anything that plainly suggests the problem is hardware?
[16:27] <fahadsadah> Can you Ctrl+Alt+1?
[16:27] <ende> well, we'll find out won't we :)
[16:27] <blakkheim> acicula: i've had a lot of troubles getting a mac to boot from usb since there is no BIOS
[16:27] <ende> ill let ya know what happens
[16:27] <fr3ak> what up suman?
[16:27] <NateW> fahadsadah: sometimes the live disk does not want to start up, complaining about the usb ports, sometimes the built in card reader will not work, occasionally ubuntu will not start up, it locks at gdm, and it quite often freezes on me (expect for the mouse).. the issues last for hours to days, and CTRL + ALT + F# does not work
[16:27] <acicula> ende: ok good luck
[16:27] <ende> blakkeim, I'm actually just using a mac (among other computers here) to create the ub stick.  The target computer is an Asus eee pc 1005hab.
[16:28] <NateW> fahdasadah: did a memtest, benched the harddisk and video card and it all works great
[16:28] <ende> s/ub/usb
[16:28] <suman> fine
[16:28] <blakkheim> ende: oh ok then that should be ok
[16:28] <suman> what about you
[16:28] <fahadsadah> NateW: When it locks up, can you skinny-elephants it down?
[16:28] <NateW> fahadsadah: meaning?
[16:28] <fahadsadah> Raising Skinny Elephants Is Utterly Boring
[16:29] <fahadsadah> SysRQ+R, SysRQ+S, SysRQ+E, etc etc etc
[16:29] <subdriven> forceflow: threw another nic in the box and it works
[16:29] <fahadsadah> SysRQ usually shares a key with PrintScreen
[16:29] <h00k> NateW: fn+sysrq+R, fn+sysrq+S, with R S E I U B
[16:29] <NateW> fahadsadah: never tried that yet
[16:29] <hellyeah> ghey
[16:29] <hellyeah> pls help
[16:29] <theadmin> Yah, it's usually Alt+PrtSc+R, S, E, I, U, B.
[16:29] <h00k> NateW: if you're on a laptop, try fn+sysrq, then it won't do printscreen
[16:30] <hellyeah> i install ubuntu within windows with setup file
[16:30] <theadmin> hellyeah: WUBI?
[16:30] <hellyeah> but now i can see windows partition
[16:30] <subdriven> forceflow: NO idea how putting system into standby would hose up the onboard nic but some how there was a cosmic fart or something and there it is
[16:30] <hellyeah> buone of them actually ubuntu is there
[16:30] <hellyeah> but i cannot see c: partition
[16:30] <fahadsadah> h00k: Do you know of any laptops with i7s and 9GB DDR3?
[16:30] <hellyeah> theadmin,  what is wubi
[16:30] <fahadsadah> h00k: Triple channel DDR3
[16:30] <theadmin> hellyeah: It should be under /host
[16:30] <theadmin> hellyeah: WUBI is the thing you install Ubuntu with within windows
[16:31] <hellyeah> ha okey
[16:31] <acicula> fahadsadah: actually those exist yes
[16:31] <fahadsadah> 0.o
[16:31] <hellyeah> myou said your partition must be under /host directory
[16:31] <acicula> though 9GB is slightly odd
[16:31] <theadmin> hellyeah: Yeah, it should be there.
[16:31] <fahadsadah> acicula: Not really.
[16:32] <fahadsadah> The i7's memory controller is triple-channel
[16:32] <acicula> fahadsadah: yeah but they dont make 3gb dimms
[16:32] <fahadsadah> Three DIMMs per channel, then
[16:32] <wjt_> 谁能回答我一个问题呀
[16:33] <fahadsadah> !ubuntu-zh | wjt_
[16:33] <fr3ak> english only plz
[16:33] <h00k> fahadsadah: http://system76.com/product_info.php?cPath=28&products_id=99
[16:33] <acicula> fahadsadah: 9x1GB ? not on a consumer board
[16:33] <NateW> fahadsadah: just froze on me again, and SysRq + something rebooted my computer
[16:33] <fahadsadah> !ubuntu-china | wjt_
[16:33] <theadmin> NateW: It's supposed to.
[16:33] <erUSUL> !cn | wjt_
[16:33] <fahadsadah> NateW: Not hardware then.
[16:33] <fahadsadah> Usually not, anyway.
[16:33] <wjt_> 没有人回答我呀
[16:33] <NateW> fahadsadah: okay.. what would cause that issue?
[16:33] <h00k> fahadsadah: does this help?
[16:33] <NateW> i installed ubuntu twice now
[16:34] <the_real_dave> !cn | wjt_
[16:34] <fabzio> ciao a tutti sono novizio come si fa a scaricare e condividere file
[16:34] <acicula> !it | fahadsadah
[16:34] <theadmin> eh.
[16:34] <acicula> err fabzio
[16:34] <wjt_> 哎
[16:34] <theadmin> !it | fabzio
[16:34] <the_real_dave> !cn > wjt_
[16:34] <theadmin> wjt_: English please.
[16:35] <fahadsadah> !jp | wjt_
[16:35] <acicula> NateW: did you have hardware issues with the os the xps came with?
[16:35] <fahadsadah> NateW: acicula has a point - it could be drivers.
[16:35] <NateW> fahadsadah: the only thing that is different from standard 64bit ubuntu, is that im using the nvidia-vdpau ppa, i will try not using that
[16:35] <NateW> acicula: i dont use win 7 at all
[16:35] <wjt_> 都在说什么呀
[16:36] <ikonia> !jp | wjt_
[16:36] <NateW> acicula, fahadsadah: i reformatted first thing :P
[16:36] <NateW> fahadsadah: but do you think it might have to do with the nvidia drivers?
[16:36] <acicula> NateW: well for troubleshooting purposes it may be worth to check
[16:37] <fahadsadah> NateW: Possibly
[16:37] <fahadsadah> Also, Windows 7 does have quite good hardware support, so it's quite possible that it might work there.
[16:37] <acicula> NateW: assuming you're stuck with the win7 license/are not trying to get it refunded
[16:38] <fahadsadah> acicula: If Dell refunded it (unlikely), they wouldn't refund full retail cost, but the cost to them.
[16:38] <NateW> fahadsadah: and the issues didnt start the first month or so i had the computer, it started after christmas holidays.. i think the 195 drivers were on the ppa during that time.. i had the 190 drivers installed before that..
[16:38] <fahadsadah> Which is around half the cost of standard OEM.
[16:38] <fahadsadah> NateW: Try downgrading to those
[16:39] <fahadsadah> If it's still broken, it's likely hardware.
[16:39] <bloodski> cant get any audio with spdif, i've updated alsamixer to 1.0.21 and unmuted spdif, but still no sound

[16:39] <fahadsadah> blob84: Sorry.
[16:39] <fahadsadah> Hmm, !pulse hasn't yet been updated.
[16:40] <mitch_P> kann mir jemand bezüglich der virtual box helfen oder gibt es da nen extra-channel ?
[16:40] <fahadsadah> bloodski: In Karmic, pulseaudio has replaced ALSA

[16:40] <mitch_P> ok

[16:42] <dashavoo> my parents computer died a horrible death while I was staying with them over xmas, and I have managed to obtain an old computer or them to use until they get a new one, but there are no cd writers in the house (on working machines anyway) - if I switch the hdd from their old computer to the new even older pc, will ubuntu be able to boot?
[16:42] <epaphus> Hello, what is the name of that search function in Kubuntu? is it stigri???
[16:43] <theadmin> dashavoo: Most likely yes, unless the hard-drive is unreadable
[16:44] <frenzy_usa> dashavoo, It should.  You might have install/reinstall some programs/drivers to get full use of the "new" computer
[16:44] <epaphus> anybody know?
[16:44] <dashavoo> thanks theadmin and frenzy_usa - I'll give it a go then. It saves going down to the library to use the computers there to burn an installer

[16:50] <pookey> hi all - when installing ubuntu, it askedm e if I wanted to use an encrypted home folder-  how do I go about settnig this up for new users, or changing my current user to use it?  the wiki page on it is out of date, and so I'm not sure it does thigns in teh current 'best practices' way
[16:51] <acicula> pookey: its set on a per user basis, think you can toggle it when you create a new usr
[16:51] <acicula> *user
[16:51] <Vincent_k> I have the scaling applet started and it seems to work but I have no cpu related modules loaded acording to lsmod? i'm confused and google gives nothing
[16:51] <acicula> !ecryptfs > pookey
[16:51] <bloodski> !pastebin
[16:51] <pookey> acicula: should have have done something? :)
[16:51] <acicula> pookey: hoping it explained ecryptfs
[16:52] <acicula> pookey: its in the wiki, anyway the home encryption is on a per user base
[16:52] <pookey> yeah, I want it per home, however the wiki paeg I found tells you to modify pam.d/common-auth, which specifically tells you not to edit it, and the changes it suggests don't relfect what's in the file either
[16:53] <acicula> pookey: eh?
[16:53] <bloodski> here's my alsamixer : http://imagebin.org/79540 --- optical audio not working
[16:53] <frenzy_usa> Anyone use QuickBooks Pro in VirtualBox?
[16:53] <g0tcha> hey guys, is it possible to use ssh tunneling with Terminal?
[16:54] <acicula> g0tcha: yeh
[16:54] <fr3ak> @bloodski may be i can help you
[16:54] <llutz> g0tcha: sure
[16:54] <pookey> acicula: sorry, I'm not surewhich bit of what I said didn't make sense.... the wiki page (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EncryptedHomeFolder) tells me to motify /etc/pam.d/common-auth - that file tells me that it's managed by pam-auth-update, and the file contents do not reflect what that wiki page suggests it should contain
[16:54] <sravan_> Suppose if my friend's comp  is connected to my comp through  blue tooth or WiFi or some mechanism , How can I know the IP or MAC adress of HIS ( my friend's ) comp ???
[16:54] <bloodski> appreciate it fr3ak, it should say something with with Nvidia intel alsa or something
[16:54] <g0tcha> how do i get to do that?
[16:54] <g0tcha> the way i do it is i start a terminal, i start an ssh tunnel then setup my firefox with those proxy settings
[16:55] <llutz> g0tcha: create a tunnel  like "ssh -D wxyz user@host", use "tsocks <app>" then
[16:55] <Shdwdrgn> anyone familiar with using openldap for shell logins?  I'm trying to change it to use the full email address (mail) instead of uid for the login name.
[16:55] <bloodski> fr3ak: but now it says, Generic 10de Nvidia HDMI instead... hdmi audio works, but not optical audio from spdif
[16:55] <pookey> acicula: useradd doesn't have anything  abouti t for configuring it on new users either.   I can probably follow one of the guides somewhere , however I want to do it the 'right' way according to how ubuntu does it itself on install
[16:56] <acicula> pookey: thats pretty dated, ubuntu sets up the encryption for you
[16:56] <llutz> g0tcha: tsocks should be configured to the port you use
[16:56] <ghufran> hi .. i want to run my mouse using the keyboard .. i enabled the option in preferences -> assitive tech -> keyboard prefs -> mouse keys but i dont know hwat key combination i have to use to make the mouse to move from the keyboard
[16:56] <wasutton3> sravan_ you could always run a traceroute, that would give you everything between your computer and your choice of server
[16:56] <pookey> acicula: right, I just need to figureo ut how, because I selected 'no' during install
[16:57] <g0tcha> llutz, so for example are wxyz flags?
[16:57] <MorphyNOR> ghufran: you can move your mousepointer with your keypad, just turn off num lock
[16:57] <llutz> g0tcha: port
[16:57] <flaco> Hi all... I got a weird problem here... my grub fails with Error 2, I-m now in a live session and when I try to mount the linux partition I get  "Exit code 32: mount: Stale NFS file handle" , NFS???  any ideas how to solve this??
[16:57] <acicula> pookey: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory
[16:57] <llutz> g0tcha: i.e. ssh -D 1080   to create a tunnel at port 1080
[16:57] <ghufran> MorphyNOR: i dont have the keypad... and hence no numlock
[16:58] <acicula> though that is also slightly dated as it sets up an encrypted Private directory rather then encrypting your entire home
[16:58] <bloodski> cat /proc/asound/version -- says 1.0.18rc3 -- but alsamixer says 1.0.21
[16:58] <g0tcha> llutz, the way i use it is "ssh -vv -l user -f -ND 1080 hostname" .. i never tried the way you said.. ill give it a try now
[16:58] <llutz> g0tcha: it's doeing basically the same
[16:58] <pookey> acicula: perahps it's enough for me to figure it out from though, I'll have a look though - thanks
[16:59] <g0tcha> llutz, ah cool thanks.. one last thing, what do you mean by "tsock <app>" ?
[17:00] <llutz> g0tcha: thats to call applications using the tunnel, even if they aren't configured to use socks-proxy
[17:01] <Dreamglider> i have a small problem, my system time keeps being about 5 second ahead of the rest of the world and i cant find any "sync to NTP server" in the Clock im using Ubuntu 8.10.
[17:02] <twig11> I want to install Karmic on an iBook G4, but after downloading the entire PPC Desktop CD image I noticed that it is 705 MB. That won't fit on a CD, so what's the best way to install it?
[17:02] <Dreamglider> twig11: you can install it of a USB drive
[17:02] <Pelo> twig11, it fist on a ce , the extra date is just info for the cd image,  just burn the image to cd , do not try and copy the file on the cd
[17:03] <spysam> twig burning the image should work just fine
[17:03] <pookey> acicula: FYI - adduser --encrypt-home
[17:04] <acicula> pookey: ah :)
[17:04] <twig11> spysam: Brasero says it won't fit.
[17:04] <pookey> acicula: thanks :)
[17:04] <Pelo> twig11, where did you get the .iso from ?
[17:04] <frische> #447310  it is said there that the bug is fixed for lucid. do fixes like this come to older version, i.e. karmic?
[17:05] <Pelo> and twig11 , it's also possible you don'T have the right kind of cd,  not all of them are 80min 700 mg
[17:05] <twig11> Pelo: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/9.10/release/ubuntu-9.10-desktop-powerpc.iso
[17:05] <pookey> acicula: oh, and...    ecryptfs-setup-private --username USER --all-home    <=- migth work - not tested but I've found the man page now I know what I'm looking for
[17:06] <g0tcha> llutz, hmm how am i supposed to find out the application to start it with tsocks?
[17:06] <spysam> twig --> "On a 74 minute CD, one can fit larger images using RAW mode ~747 MiB" ( Straight from wikipedia )
[17:06] <the_real_dave> Hey, I'm having some trouble with Compiz. On my user, the one created during the install, Compiz works perfectly. However, on the user that I created after the install, it won't work. Setting Effects in Appearance returns "Desktop Effects cannot be enabled" and compiz --replace doesn't seem to work either. Any suggestions? :(
[17:06] <mkanyicy> hi everyone
[17:07] <llutz> g0tcha: tsocks irssi
[17:07] <llutz> g0tcha: you should know what app you want to run with tunnels in terminal
[17:07] <obiwan_> hi, please one question. I see many packages with a trailing ng in their name. Examples: the aircrack suite (aircrack-ng airodump-ng...) and more packages ending also with -ng
[17:07] <the_real_dave> !hi | mkanyicy:
[17:08] <obiwan_> sry, here goes the ques: does anybody know what does ng mean? xd

[17:08] <Pici> obiwan_: In what context/
[17:08] <master_> can i help someone?
[17:08] <spysam> guess you could also trying burning it in a DVD ?
[17:08] <frische> the_real_dave: check permissions. i guess under system-adm-user settings-<thenewuser>-properties you should tick "video card usage"

[17:09] <the_real_dave> frische: there's no video card usage settings :(
[17:09] <frische> obiwan_: new generation, usually those are forks of older projects
[17:09] <pravin_> @faLUCE gksu gedit /etc/default/grub
[17:09] <Pelo> faLUCE, check in /etc/default/  there is a grub file then, you edit that and then you run grup-update
[17:09] <twig11> Pelo: Unfortunately I've got a satellite internet connection with limited bandwidth. I'd rather use the one I already downloaded.
[17:09] <frische> the_real_dave: user privileges, use video devices

[17:12] <plazia> Using Nautilus in GNOME I'm able to mount my NTFS partitions quickly and easily. I simple click the entry in Nautilus and it prompts for authentication. However I've started using IceWM or FvWM and using "nautilus --no-desktop" and when I click the NTFS drive it says unable to mount authentication required but offers no means to put it in. Can anyone help here?
[17:12] <theadmin> Thanks, frische.

[17:13] <danny_> how can i install a cannon ip1800 printer on ubuntu?
[17:13] <Pelo> danny_, in the printer config, just pick the model closest to yours
[17:14]  * Claudiu is away: Away for now .. 
[17:14] <Pici> obiwan_: Ah. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ng_(disambiguation) says it may mean "New Generation"
[17:14] <amb_> @plazia could it be that your last session with the NTFS drive was on a Win system and not terminated well
[17:14] <frische> danny_: http://www.lmgtfy.com/?q=how+can+i+install+a+cannon+ip1800+printer+on+ubuntu%3F
[17:14] <danny_> let me try that
[17:14] <Dreamglider> need help to sync my time, im abt 5 seconds ahead of time.
[17:14] <Pici> frische: That is not helpful here
[17:15] <master_> can i help someone?
[17:15] <Dreamglider> master_: yes please, help me sync my system time.
[17:15] <amb_> @plazia or ist it just with every NTFS -drive happend
[17:15] <twig11> Pelo: I'm in the sticks. No DSL available, even with a landline. The cellular internet card I tried from AT&T couldn't get a good signal. Dial-up is too slow.
[17:15] <Pelo> danny_, assuming this is a usb printer, pluggin it in and powering on should automaticaly install it
[17:15] <plazia> amb_, yeah I've heard of that problem before. but no last session was inside gnome where the drive was mounted fine. then rebooted back straight into ubuntu and the drive can't be mounted inside icewm
[17:15] <frische> Pici: it helps me? *shrug*
[17:15] <plazia> I think nautilus must load some sorta authentication system inside the GNOME environment
[17:15] <chrisw1> gpg is whining at me, how can I create more entropy on a headless box?
[17:15] <maco> chrisw1: network traffic
[17:16] <Pelo> twig11, are you able to burn the iso to a dvd ?
[17:16] <chrisw1> maco: there's plenty of that :-S
[17:16] <eduardo> Olá
[17:16] <amb_> did you tryed the force command
[17:16] <mikeg3> !grub
[17:16] <maco> chrisw1: setup another ssh connection to it then bash away at vim in it?
[17:16] <chrisw1> amb_: was that at me?
[17:16] <plazia> amb_, you can right-click the drive and do a force-mount in nautilus?
[17:16] <ghufran> can someone tell me the keys to use to move the mouse using the keyboard? i am on a laptop and it doesnt have the numpad
[17:17] <Pelo> ghufran, there is a pacakge for that ,  let me check for the name
[17:17] <twig11> Pelo: spysam: No DVDs on hand. But you think if I burn it right I can fit it on a 700MB CD?
[17:17] <amb_> @plazia you can mount anything from a terminal
[17:17] <danny_> Pelo: it is a usb printer but no...it didnt install it automatically
[17:17] <maco> ghufran: i think you need to enable it in either keyboard or mouse settings but since i use kubuntu i dont know which it is in ubuntu
[17:17] <plazia> amb_, yeah I'm pretty sure I can. but I don't want to have to type in every time I want to mount my drive when it was simply a one click operation in nautillus
[17:17] <Pelo> twig11, it should but like I said, check the cd,  they are not all 700mb 80 min,  my neigbour bought some that were only 60 min by mistake
[17:18] <plazia> amb_, well I "think" I remember the mount commands :)
[17:18] <maco> ghufran: though your laptop should have a Fn key that enables the numpad.... shouldnt it?
[17:18] <twig11> Pelo: it is a 700mb
[17:18] <Pelo> danny_, I checked the list there is a pixmax ip2000 on it try that one
[17:18] <ghufran> maco: i enabled it from the accessibility section ... i just need to know how to operate this thing ..
[17:18] <amb_>   @chrisw1 I was asking vor help for using grub2 for booting usb's
[17:18] <danny_> ok i will
[17:18] <twig11> Pelo: can you provide instructions for getting it on there?
[17:19] <Pelo> twig11, hold on , there is a list of install option I'll triger it for you there is probably one for usb install if you have a usb flash drive big enough
[17:19] <Pelo> !install > twick
[17:19] <amb_> @plazia did the mount work properly manual
[17:19] <plazia> amb_, yes
[17:19] <maco> ghufran: does your laptop have numbers printed on some of the letter keys in a different colour? holding down Fn and using those should work like the numpad would. i just tried it
[17:19] <plazia> with sudo
[17:20] <amb_> So you havn't got the rights to mount that drive direct
[17:20] <twig11> Pelo: you PM'd twick, not me.
[17:20] <ghufran> maco: no .. it doesnt ..
[17:20] <plazia> ah or perhaps nautilus doesn't
[17:20] <Pelo> twig11, sorry
[17:20] <Pelo> !install > twig11
[17:20] <maco> ghufran: then i dont know how to get a numpad except to get a usb one
[17:20] <amb_> sorry was for plazia
[17:20] <plazia> amb_, but what I'm saying is in GNOME. when you try this in nautilus it launches some sorta authentication window permitting you to enter your password and then mounts the drive
[17:21] <plazia> like some sort privilege escalation but only temporarily
[17:21] <plazia> kinda like gksudo or something
[17:21] <twig11> !install > twig11
[17:21] <amb_> yes but that means that somewhere ther is a disciption which mounting is allowed.
[17:21] <plazia> but in icewm it doesn't give any window. just an error message
[17:21] <Pelo> plazia, sudo su  but it needs to be done from the terminal
[17:21] <amb_> Whats the Error Message about
[17:22] <plazia> "Unable to mount 957 GB Filesystem" \n "Authentication is required
[17:22] <plazia> "

[17:42] <benpro> hi al
[17:42] <Pelo> twick, if your usb drive can handle ext3 sure, but they are usualy fat32 as far as I know,  for setting the flag, once your partion is made just right click and it,s somewher in the context menu,  or it might also be available from the format dialog
[17:42] <benpro> hi all*
[17:42] <DrPraetor2> -s is simulate.  Only mention of security in the man page is for the frontend to check that packages are digitally signed :(
[17:42] <Pici> pererik87: bash is the standard shell, you shouldn't need to use anything else. Perhaps you can paste on http://ubuntu.pastebin.com  what you terminal looks like currently and maybe I know what the issue is.
[17:42] <nastas> benpro: hi
[17:42] <new2ubutnu> benpro: hi
[17:43] <amb_> benpro: hi
[17:43] <new2ubutnu> o.k. - so I entered "route"
[17:44] <amb_> @new2ubuntunu whats about your routes
[17:44] <deadmau5> Slart check pm please
[17:44] <wildc4rd> evenin' all
[17:44] <pererik87> pici: well i closed the window but i do not dare to start on a hour long trail of code i don't understand if its just going to stop working midway
[17:44] <amb_> anybody : how to boot a usb-stick with grub2 - I know how to boot with grub
[17:44] <twig11> Pelo: I can't believe I just did something this stupid. I created a new partition table on dev/sda by accident instead of on my thumb drive. I haven't written any new partitions to it yet. Is there any way to recover?
[17:44] <new2ubutnu> there's destination, gateway, genmask, flags, metric, ref, use, and Iface
[17:44] <Pelo> twick, have you actually applied ?
[17:45] <pererik87> pici: darn those new wacoms
[17:45] <amb_> what is your default gateway?
[17:45] <twig11> Pelo: I applied the new partition map, yes.
[17:45] <Pici> pererik87: The only think I can think of is that you possibly had a mismatched quote or similar character and it was waiting for you to enter the closing character.
[17:45] <new2ubutnu> three destinations: 192.168.1.0, link-local, and default
[17:45] <Pelo> twig11, have you actulay hit the apply button ,
[17:45] <pozican> I'm just curious - how many of you linux users alias c:?
[17:45] <amb_> @new2ubuntunu what is default
[17:45] <new2ubutnu> default gateway is 192.168.1.1
[17:45] <amb_> seams ok.
[17:46] <maco> pozican: i never did that
[17:46] <new2ubutnu> yeah - i know - the wifi is selected in Network
[17:46] <amb_> try nslookup an Ipadress you know
[17:46] <Pici> !tab | new2ubutnu amb_
[17:46] <Pelo> twig11, that's a bit out of my leag , this is the computer you are working on right now ? and sda is your  / hdd ? , ,I think you should just close gparted
[17:46] <Pici> !who
[17:46] <new2ubutnu> i don't understand
[17:46] <new2ubutnu> tried rebooting, resetting the wireless router, etc
[17:46] <Pelo> twig11, but quite honestly this is out of my league
[17:46] <pozican> maco: I bet some did
[17:47] <twig11> Pelo: I don't see an apply button on the current window. I don't remember if I clicked apply. But it said it would erase all data, and it now says 0 operations pending.
[17:47] <maco> pozican: i wouldnt even know how to do it
[17:47] <maco> pozican: ive heard of if you want to be able to access your windows drives from ubuntu, setting them to mount at /media/c or /media/d but thats it
[17:47] <Losha> twig11: some people report success using testdisk to recover partitions. http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk. Disclaimer:  I've never used it myself....
[17:47] <amb_> new2ubutnu, try nslookup with an IPadress you know well. expl. nslookup www.google.com
[17:47] <pererik87> Pici: im certain it was a bug because i got a half word on one side and a half directory on the other side of the insertion point. the text after insertion pont dissapeared when i started to type. wierd behavior. But i figure ill just turn the wacom in and order a older version
[17:47] <Pelo> twig11, very important, is that sda hdd the harddrive you are curently using to run your os ?
[17:47]  * pozican facepalms
[17:47] <new2ubutnu> AMB - in terminal
[17:47] <twig11> Pelo: I think so.
[17:48] <amb_> new2ubutnu, yes
[17:48] <new2ubutnu> o.k.  doing that now
[17:48] <Pici> pererik87: Perhaps you accidentally pressed the insert key on your keyboard and that was overwriting the text as you typed
[17:48] <scott_ino2> Does anyone know if mediabuntu pulled 64 bit skype from their repo? It doesn't seem to be there
[17:48] <twig11> Pelo: I do have a backup. But I sure don't feel like recovering from it.
[17:48] <maco> scott_ino2: theyre not permitted to distribute it, afaik
[17:48] <pererik87> !pici nope
[17:48] <amb_> anybody : how to boot a usb-stick with grub2 - I know how to boot with grub
[17:48] <maco> scott_ino2: everything else in medibuntu is free software with patent issues. skype isnt free software at all.
[17:48] <new2ubutnu> connection timed out; no servers could be reached
[17:49] <scott_ino2> maco, I mean they used to up until a month ago
[17:49] <scott_ino2> at least
[17:49] <maco> scott_ino2: er, free with a capital F
[17:49] <Pelo> twig11, it usualy is , it's not possible to do any gparted operations on a mounted file system,  so you probably didn,T break the computer,  but if it,s another hdd you probably screwed it up, no idea how to recover from that
[17:49] <Pici> pererik87: I'm not sure then, sorry.
[17:49] <scott_ino2> maco, im just trying to confirm that they pulled it and it's not something else going on
[17:49] <amb_> new2ubutnu, try ping 192.168.1.1
[17:49] <twig11> Pelo: Well I'm certain it's the one I'm running from now, so I hope you're right.
[17:49] <maco> scott_ino2: i assume thats it. probably best to ask them though, rather than random folks :P
[17:50] <new2ubutnu> destination host unreachable
[17:50] <scott_ino2> maco, of course, just figured someone in here would know for certain
[17:50] <new2ubutnu> on 192.168.1.2
[17:50] <twig11> Pelo: I'll try again with the USB drive. :-)
[17:50] <Pelo> twick, close down gparted,  and try to view files elswhere on that hdd using nautilus
[17:50] <pererik87> pici: oh god what a mess. well thanks for trying :)
[17:50] <kostkon> scott_ino2, they removed skype from medibuntu. the reason is that they didn't want to confuse the users since skype provide their own debs.
[17:50] <new2ubutnu> on 192.168.1.1 it says 56(84) bytes of data
[17:50] <twig11> Pelo: sure.
[17:50] <lonpc18> hi pici
[17:50] <lonpc18> your main.cf is standard
[17:51] <Pelo> twig11, there is a nice app in the system menu,  disk utilities,  that should let you select the usb stick and refformat it and set the flag,   I didn'T think about it because it is recent
[17:51] <twig11> Pelo: Looks like everything is there.
[17:51] <Pelo> twig11, phew
[17:51] <amb_> try command iwconfig
[17:51] <twig11> Pelo: I've seen that. I'll try it.

[17:53] <sv> slart:yes there is.But i wanted to confirm whether it is armv5 or armv7 ?
[17:53] <wng-> mounts*
[17:53] <blakkheim> wng-: why would you move /var
[17:53] <amb_> what about Link Quality Signal level
[17:53] <wng-> blakkheim: because I wanted it on a different partition
[17:53] <new2ubutnu> retry:on Fragment thr:off  link quality86/100
[17:54] <Slart> sv: ah.. I just googled a bit.. there is some info here http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/arm  not sure if it's of any use though.. it doesn't specifically mention what version
[17:54] <blakkheim> wng-: did you apply changes to fstab?
[17:54] <new2ubutnu> the laptop's link quality is 79/100
[17:54] <Slart> sv: have you tried asking in #ubuntu-arm ?
[17:55] <new2ubutnu> everything after link quality and levels is 0
[17:55] <faheem_> hello, im using xubutu my screen resolution i think is way to high, im currently only seeing 1/4 of the screen can anyone help me?

[17:56] <lonpc18> but its just standard
[17:56] <amb_> new2ubutnu, what was level?
[17:56] <new2ubutnu> could tehre be somthing wrong in network settings?  as far as I can tell everything is working correct - maybe the issue is in settings OR firefox?
[17:56] <powertool08> What is casper-rw? I know its used with persistent usb installs.
[17:56] <new2ubutnu> signal level is 45 noise is 101
[17:57] <blakkheim> sv: do you insist on using ubuntu? there are arm ports of debian and others that you could possibly use if ubuntu doesn't support armv7
[17:57] <KarmaJones> Why is my Ubuntu unable to mount any usb external drive when not in root?
[17:57] <new2ubutnu> KarmaJones, I have the same problem - but also with INTERNAL PARTITIONS
[17:58] <amb_> new2ubutnu, it seams correct, because Ive got more worse values. Do you use a DHCP or fixed IPs
[17:58] <thesabry> good evening all
[17:58] <new2ubutnu> DHCP
[17:58] <blakkheim> sv: http://armin762.wordpress.com/2009/11/25/armv7/ might be worth a read
[17:58] <new2ubutnu> howdy thesabry
[17:58] <amb_> thesabry, hi
[17:59] <KarmaJones> new2ubuntu: I don't know about INTERNAL PARTITIONS, I do have ICE Authority and Nautilus issues
[17:59] <chilipepper> y
[17:59] <new2ubutnu> localhost IP is 127.0.0.1, comp IP is 127.0.1.1
[17:59] <KarmaJones> Why is my Ubuntu unable to mount any usb external drive when not in root?
[17:59] <lonpc18> i think i edit /etc/postfix/transport
[17:59] <amb_> new2ubutnu, so the connection must have worked correct with right key - you wouldnt get any IP with wrong ones.
[17:59] <lonpc18> i want to send email from the ubntu command line
[17:59] <lonpc18> via an set stmp server
[18:00] <lonpc18> is the file i need to edit /etc/postfix/transport?
[18:00] <new2ubutnu> it did work yesterday - doesn't now..
[18:00] <pepperspray> what application can i use to convert an mp4 file to vob?
[18:00] <new2ubutnu> should i try connecting  with static IP instead?
[18:00] <Pelo> pepperspray, avidemux would probably work
[18:00] <amb_> do once /etc/init.d/network restart
[18:01] <frische> lonpc18: did you try nail?
[18:01] <new2ubutnu> o.k. doing that
[18:01] <lonpc18> nail?
[18:01] <llutz> lonpc18: sudo dpkg-reconfigure postfix, configure internet-site using smarthost, give your smarthost there
[18:01] <amb_> new2ubutnu,  do once /etc/init.d/network restart
[18:01] <lonpc18> whats nail
[18:01] <pepperspray> Pelo, thank yo u
[18:01] <lonpc18> has to be the command line
[18:01] <frische> i once had a small python script that could do that as well
[18:01] <lonpc18> im on a server install
[18:01] <frische> nail = mailx
[18:01] <frische> heirloom mailx
[18:01] <amb_> new2ubutnu, could be that you nead sudo
[18:01] <thesabry> I have a dual boot mac os x / ubuntu . I have a data partition that I want to  to access from both OS. In first place I do a HFS+ partition but I realized that VLC cannot read data from this kind of format so I am thinking of formating that partition in a new format. Do you know which format will be my best choice ?? (Ext is not natively supported by os x even though it is Unix based !!). Does FAT32 my only choice ?
[18:01] <new2ubutnu> AMB - got the response "bash: /ect/init.d/network restart"
[18:02] <lonpc18> no i havent tried nail or mailx
[18:02] <lonpc18> im trying to run this command sendmail -bv username@gmail.com
[18:02] <new2ubutnu> type sudo before the /ect?
[18:02] <blakkheim> thesabry: ntfs-3g has a mac port, you could try ntfs
[18:02] <powertool08> new2ubutnu: It should be /etc not /ect
[18:03] <Aled> is there any software on Ubuntu to capture from my webcam?
[18:03] <frische> i don' t use sendmail
[18:03] <new2ubutnu> hey the sabry - someone said the other day that he had to attach his drive to a windows pc - and turn the drive OFF cause it was locked from windows and so Ubuntu couldn't do anything with it
[18:03] <amb_> new2ubutnu, should be etc
[18:03] <new2ubutnu> ahh o.k.
[18:03] <frische> really, have a look at mailx
[18:03] <new2ubutnu> ty amb
[18:03] <new2ubutnu> brb
[18:04] <Pelo> thesabry, I think you need to ask in a mac channel to see what OSX will support,  anything listed in gparted is supported by linux,  so youjust need to find a match,  btw fat32 does not support files large files so you might want to take that in consideration
[18:04] <new2ubutnu> AMB - gave the same response no such file or directory
[18:04] <unimatrix9> any one knows how to know what alsa uses for audio input , i think the card is alsa:adevice=hw.0
[18:04] <amb_> what type of system you are using
[18:04] <ende> I'm not familiar with Disk Utility in ubuntu (I think this is Gnome?? hard to tell.. its the netbook remix)…..
[18:04] <unimatrix9> what would be the audio input device?
[18:04] <KarmaJones> Why is my Ubuntu unable to mount any usb external drive when not in root?
[18:04] <ende> is this probably not hte right app for partition management ?
[18:04] <amb_> new2ubutnu, what type of system you are using
[18:05] <CountDown> Aled: There are plenty of webcam capture utilities.  For example, 'webcam'.
[18:05] <Slart> new2ubutnu: that can happen if the drive has some kind of error.. in windows you would just run a checkdisk on it.. there is a small program called ntfsfix that can reset this error (not fix it) from ubuntu
[18:05] <Aled> I just installed the first one on the Package Manager
[18:05] <new2ubutnu> ubuntu 8.04.01 hardy heron
[18:05] <new2ubutnu> ty SLART
[18:06] <mezquitale> ende, what are you trying to do? have you given gparted a try? sudo gparted
[18:06] <Pelo> Aled, I beleive "cheese" is the curent favorite
[18:06] <ende> mezquitale
[18:06] <Slart> new2ubutnu: so the drive isn't really locked.. it needs some love that ubuntu can't supply (there is no checkdisk for ntfs for linux).. so it just won't touch it in case something important might be broken
[18:06] <Aled> "sudo apt-get install cheese"?
[18:06] <ende> oops
[18:06] <Pelo> Aled, yep
[18:06] <maco> Aled: yep
[18:06] <Aled> right
[18:06] <ende> mezquitale: Yep, just saw that. This is what I'm looking for thanks.
[18:06]  * Pelo can'T help a smile
[18:07] <ende> hmm

[18:13] <ubuntu> nibbler, what would the best way to create an installation where programs could be added/removed and files stored permanently?
[18:13] <ende> davertron: would opening a terminal window be good enough?
[18:13] <KarmaJones> pelo: yes they work, I think it's a permission issue. Ice also have problems with ICE authority and Nautilus...
[18:13] <powertool08> davertron: ctrl+alt+f1 ctrl+alt+f7 to get back
[18:13] <ende> or that
[18:13] <davertron> ende: nah, i need to run "sudo X -configure"
[18:13] <scott_ino2> KarmaJones, can you send/post a direct link to the actual pastbin
[18:14] <KarmaJones> scott_ino2:  http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m20ed5ddd
[18:14] <powertool08> davertron: or ctrl+alt+f1, followed by sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop to kill X.
[18:14] <nibbler> ubuntu: for the files there is a slider in that program. about programs i dont know. basically you can install ubuntu to any media, just use a usb stick instead of a harddisk, or follow http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-mini/Hard-Disk-Upgrade.html to transfer an existing installation
[18:14] <new2ubutnu> AMB - if you're there I figured it out
[18:14] <davertron> powertoole08: :)
[18:14] <new2ubutnu> in Hardy Heron - the Network folder is called networking
[18:15] <ende> AH, mezquitale the drive was just moutned is all ;)
[18:15] <ende> thanks for the help
[18:16] <scott_ino2> KarmaJones, in terminal do: sudo chmod 777 /dev/sdb1
[18:16] <scott_ino2> should set the permissions on the drive
[18:16] <scott_ino2> KarmaJones, it's not one of those odd external drives that have the software that run on it is it?
[18:17] <davertron> powertoole08: thanks
[18:17] <powertool08> davertron: np
[18:17] <scott_ino2> KarmaJones, after you set the permissions you can try mounting it again, mount /dev/sdb1 /media*or someother location
[18:17] <mezquitale> ende, right you have to unmount the drive, i would make that xp partition smaller, you would only need about 20~40 gigs for xp, then create some space for remix, about 10~15 gigs should be enough, if you have a sata HD use a swap partition if you have an SSD hard drive dont use swap
[18:17] <KarmaJones> scott_ino2:  this happens with all my external hard drives, old and new
[18:17] <ende> mezquitale, 20-40??  ha, M$ is lucky if it gets 16 ;)
[18:18] <scott_ino2> KarmaJones, hmm odd, did you chmod the drive?
[18:18] <KarmaJones> scott_ino2:  not yet
[18:18] <scott_ino2> KarmaJones, fdisk sees it, so it's obviously there and recognized, just wont mount. seems as though if you set permissions on it it would work
[18:18] <ende> so I have to create a swap partition manually?
[18:18] <KarmaJones> scott_ino2:  not yet
[18:18] <Sport> I just installed and setup Ubuntu server on a small server machine I built.  Since it lacks GUI, and my mobo has an HDMI port, is there a way I can play media to my TV?
[18:18] <ende> remix won't do that for me during install out of the available freespace?  or do I just need to partition off the space for it (I think ~ size of memory ?)
[18:18] <KarmaJones> scott_ino2:  I did sudo chmod 777 /dev/sdb1 and nothing happened
[18:19] <mezquitale> ende, you could let the installation do it for you, i boot up to netbook remix, partition the drive, reboot then install
[18:19] <scott_ino2> KarmaJones, ok so try mounting it again
[18:19] <KarmaJones> scott_ino2:  I did it doesn't mount
[18:19] <ende> mezquitale, if I partition off, say, 2gb for the swap, then during the Remix install I can designate as the location for the swap?
[18:20] <scott_ino2> KarmaJones, do you have data you need on this? or can you copy it over to somewhere else first?
[18:20] <KarmaJones> scott_ino2:  I tried changing the permission logged in as root earlier and it wouldn't let me
[18:21] <scott_ino2> KarmaJones, certain flash drives and external hard drives have software that run on them, so I'm wondering of this is the case, however you say this does it with all of yoru drives.
[18:21] <KarmaJones> scott_ino2:  yeah I can open it with root, it's just I'm trying to fix this
[18:21] <scott_ino2> KarmaJones, you're saying root can mount the drives?
[18:21] <mezquitale> ende, yes, you can choose to parttion the drive manually, all you have to do is specify "/" and any other optional partitions that you have, remix should be able to detect your swap partition
[18:21] <KarmaJones> scott_ino2:  yeah I can open it with root
[18:22] <scott_ino2> KarmaJones, go to System/Administration/Users and Groups
[18:22] <KarmaJones> scott_ino2:  ok
[18:22] <Hautop> Hello! I need help. I installed Ubuntu 9.10 64bit with a LiveCD. Then tried to boot into ubuntu, but received the error "error: biosdisk write error". Reinstalled twice, still same error.
[18:22] <scott_ino2> click the keys at the bottom of the window to unlock
[18:22]  * khelair is gone. perma-away to avoid annoying status changes
[18:22] <davertron> has anyone run into resolution issues when using a dvi -> dvi + vga splitter?
[18:23] <scott_ino2> KarmaJones, click on the user you're trying to use to mount the drive and select Properties
[18:23] <KarmaJones> scott_ino2:  ok done
[18:23] <scott_ino2> KarmaJones, then go to User Priveleges and make sure "Access external storage devices automatically" is checked
[18:23] <davertron> when I plug a VGA monitor into my computer using a dvi -> dvi + vga connection, my vga monitor will only display at 800x600 or 640x480; how do i get it to display at my monitor's native resolution?
[18:23] <KarmaJones> scott_ino2:  yes it's checked
[18:24] <SandGorgon_> can i change the mysql.sock in ubuntu to point to a different location. I tried changing it in /etc/mysql/my.cnf .. but it doesnt seemt o change
[18:24] <KarmaJones> scott_ino2:  I have problems with ICE authority and Nautilus. I think this problem mounting drives is a system of that
[18:24] <KarmaJones> scott_ino2:  I have problems with ICE authority and Nautilus. I think this problem mounting drives is a *symptom of that
[18:25] <scott_ino2> KarmaJones, that's the next thing i was going to ask, was if you're using any additional security/policies on your machine
[18:25] <cannonball> My gnome toolbar (not the menu bar, the one that shows running apps) has a weird issue, wondering if anybody has seen this before.  If I move my mouse over an app shown in the toolbar and click on it, it does not recognize the clicks (will not bring the window forward).  If I hover the mouse over the app in the toolbar so that the popup appears which shows the full text, it then lets me click on it.
[18:26] <cannonball> I don't even know what to make of that.
[18:26] <cannonball> Possible a Gnome restart would fix it, but looking to see if anybody else has come across this.
[18:26] <anf> there is add-apt-repository (without any manpage...) - how can i remove a certain ppa?
[18:26] <undecim> cannonball: Try pressing alt+f2 and typing "killall gnome-panel"
[18:26] <Hautop> Hi again. I installed Ubuntu 9.10 64bit with a LiveCD. Then I tried to boot into ubuntu, but received the error "error: biosdisk write error". Reinstalled twice, still same error. Im not able to start ubuntu, but the LiveSession worked well. Does anybody know this error or how I can fix it? thx in advance
[18:26] <ChogyDan> anf: just go to your software sources
[18:27] <KarmaJones> scott_ino2:  I 'm not. It's just that I have to login everytime by dropping to root shell in recovery mode because of issues with ICE Authority and Nautilus on logging
[18:27] <undecim> Hautop: How old is your computer?
[18:27] <aeon-ltd> Hautop: sounds like a HDD problem not ubuntu
[18:27] <Hautop> Quite new.
[18:27] <Hautop> some months. New hardware
[18:27] <scott_ino2> KarmaJones, then I suspect it has somethign to do with that, as I've never encontered a normal instance have these types of issues
[18:27] <Jordan_U> Hautop: Are you sure it wasn't biosdisk read error?
[18:27] <scott_ino2> sorry i couldn't be of more help
[18:28] <aminos> uit
[18:28] <undecim> Hautop: then as aeon-ltd said, it's probably a prblem with your Hard Drive
[18:28] <cannonball> undecim: it restarted as expected, but still exhibits the behavior.  I'll restart Gnome today before I head home this afternoon and see if it makes any difference.
[18:28] <KarmaJones> scott_ino2:  all right, well thanks for your help, I'll focus my energies on that instead
[18:28] <xteejx> hey guys, anyone know about ldap?
[18:28] <undecim> Hautop: Though since you were able to install it, try one thing before you go replacing your hard drive...
[18:28] <Hautop> Jordan_U, its "Error: Biosdisk read error
[18:28] <Hautop> invalid environment block"
[18:29] <dj> hey how  can i record video streaming
[18:29] <Jordan_U> Hautop: Good, that's an easy one to fix :)

[18:29] <borgicheb> My nVidia MCP73 sound card has mysteriously stopped working in ubuntu 9.10.  Anyone have any ideas?
[18:29] <undecim> Jordan_U: Seperate boot partiton?
[18:29] <Jordan_U> Hautop: Are you booted into a LiveCD right now?
[18:30] <Hautop> No, but i can take notes
[18:30] <ChogyDan> Hautop: have you tried disabling your floppy disk?
[18:30] <Hautop> No
[18:30] <Jordan_U> undecim: No, just a bug in grub-editenv that left a zero byte env file if it crashed at the wrong time, it's been fixed in a update
[18:30] <undecim> Jordan_U: Ahh...
[18:31] <Talirk81> I upgrade from hardy to karmic, but now  i cant edit   /etc/fstab even in su - or sudo.  Also as root i can mv  /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.old  so i can  move a new copy in place. Anyone have any ideas, even in knoppix i have this same issue after running a  fsck
[18:31] <Louiie> Hey, do any of you know where I can buy a new laptop with out an OS already on it?
[18:31] <Talirk81> Louiie: pricewatch.com maybe?
[18:32] <Pici> Louiie: #ubuntu-offtopic or ##hardware would be a more appropriate place to ask
[18:32] <Jordan_U> Hautop: Ok, boot a liveCD and mount your Ubuntu partition to /mnt and run "sudo grub-editenv /mnt/boot/grub/grubenv create" then you should be able to boot
[18:32] <undecim> Louiie: Some vendors, when you order online allow that option. You could also buy a system76 computer which comes installed with Ubuntu
[18:32] <obiwan__> hi, please could anybody tell me what XUL is? i read that it's a mozilla xml-based lang, to build some applications, etc. But i don't get it, any example? is it like javascript? or like php? what can i compare it to?
[18:32] <obiwan__> i already tried xul channel but ain't exist :(/
[18:32] <Louiie> undecim do you know how much roughly that is?
[18:32] <krelboyne> Louille: dell sells laptops with ubuntu preinstalled
[18:32] <Hautop> Jordan_U: Ok, sounds easy. Thank you.
[18:33] <Louiie> krelboyne: I've never seen that, you sure? Have you got a link?
[18:33] <Jordan_U> Louiie: http://system76.com/ http://dell.com/ubuntu
[18:33] <undecim> Louiie: their netbok starts at $369, and their 12.1" laptop starts at $760
[18:33] <petsounds> dj, install gtk-recordmydesktop
[18:33] <Jordan_U> Hautop: np
[18:33] <borgicheb> obiwan: XUL looks like a markup language, kind of like HTML.
[18:34] <Louiie> Jordan_U: thankyou :)
[18:34] <Louiie> undecim: cheers :)
[18:34] <Jordan_U> Louiie: np
[18:34] <obiwan__> ok borgicheb that's what i wanted to know hehe many thx
[18:35] <borgicheb> obiwan: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XUL has an example.

[18:41] <Zteam> Hi
[18:42] <Zteam> Is there any way to use the nvidia-driver without how reinstall it every time i get a new kernel?
[18:42] <jrib> Zteam: sure.  Use the nvidia driver from the repositories...
[18:42] <milon> any xubuntu expert?
[18:42] <jrib> !nvidia | Zteam
[18:43] <theodore> hello there
[18:43] <ircuser> ChogyDan: Shall it also limit the number of Kernels that will be kept in future? I want the kernel.x.1 removed automatically when kernel.x.3 is downloaded and installed.
[18:43] <theodore> how can I read a docx file in ubuntu?
[18:43] <Zteam> jrib: I already do, but unfourtnetly there is a bug in karmic which prevent it from rebuilding the driver
[18:44] <ChogyDan> ircuser: AFAIK, no
[18:44] <jrib> Zteam: the driver isn't rebuilt afaik.  When you install a new kernel it comes with a new nvidia package
[18:44] <aeon-ltd> milon: what do you need?
[18:45] <Zteam> jrib: Well, anyway I have to reinstall the driver for every new kernel
[18:45] <petsounds> theodore, with openoffice writer
[18:45] <Zteam> jrib: it worked perfectly fine in Jaunty but not in Karmic
[18:45] <Azeotrope> I am getting this error when buring a DVD-R with brasero http://pastebin.org/75001.  It damaged 2 disc so far
[18:45] <jrib> Zteam: how do you reinstall the driver?
[18:46] <jrib> Zteam: I haven't used nvidia on karmic, do you have a bug # for what you mentioned before?
[18:46] <theodore> it says filter selection...
[18:46] <theodore> after...?which filter?
[18:46] <trism> Zteam: how did you install the nvidia drivers? because DKMS rebuilds them just fine for me every kernel update, and I'm on karmic (I used System/Administration/Hardware Drivers)
[18:46] <Zteam> jrib: I boot the older kernel remove the driver in (propriarety drivers) boots the new kernel and install it (with ubuntus own driver manager)

[18:50] <jrib> Zteam: make sure the headers get installed for the new kernel first before upgrading the nvidia package
[18:50] <ChogyDan> shawn_: I think so, but I don't think it is what you want.  An iso doesn't support all the info that ccd does
[18:50] <pookey> hi all - i've a fresh install of ubuntu, and using byobu/screen, when I connect to it from my mac, lots of text is flashing.  typing 'reset' in a terminal doesnt help.  I've googled and can't find anything due too too much noise from the term 'flash' perhaps... any ideas?
[18:51] <revant> Prolink PlayTV Pro 2 Internal Tv Tuner seems to work. I'll buy one today, hope it works..
[18:51] <petsounds> theodore, i open one of my .docx and i don't see any notification like you said.
[18:51] <revant> thank you
[18:51] <shawn_> ChogyDan, Its for installing a game is there a way to mount ccds then
[18:51] <ravi> I have a some issues after installing Ubuntu 9.10
[18:51] <ravi> http://pastebin.com/m23882fa5
[18:51] <Zteam> jrib: Hmm, doesn't the header gets installed along with the kernel?
[18:51] <ChogyDan> shawn_: maybe this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=180124

[18:52] <loddy> I had installed 9.10 after Vista(preinstalled). All worked fine. But yesterday, it said, grub-resue mode. I tried fixing up with 9.04 Live CD, but now it only drops grub menu on startup
[18:52] <jrib> Zteam: yes, but in which order?
[18:53] <adityag> any solution for lower resolution for VIA chipset ?? i use 8.10 and get resolution of 640x400 max, in 7.10 i get 1024x800. any help will be appreciated
[18:53] <jrib> Zteam: and actually I think headers only get pulled in if you have the right meta package for them
[18:53] <jrib> Zteam: I'm just guessing a cause
[18:53] <petsounds> theodore, i don't have any idea, sorry. but you can ask in #openoffice.org
[18:53] <jrib> !away > ibuclaw
[18:53] <Zteam> jrib: Hmm, by some reason the header for my current kernel isn't installed at all
[18:54] <Zteam> jrib: Strange, shouldn't it depend on the kernel?
[18:54] <ende> woot! I am the drive partitioning mac-daddy
[18:54] <jrib> Zteam: why?
[18:55] <Zteam> jrib: because the system needs them in order to rebuild dkms right?
[18:55] <ende> Anyone recommend a sufficient but minimalist partition size for Ubuntu netbook remix?
[18:55] <jrib> Zteam: well not everyone uses or needs dkms
[18:56] <Zteam> jrib: maybe it should be dependecy of dkms or the driver?
[18:56] <loddy> (Bump) I had installed 9.10 after Vista(preinstalled). All worked fine. But yesterday, it said, grub-resue mode. I tried fixing up with 9.04 Live CD, but now it only drops grub menu on startup
[18:57] <Zteam> So I install the header should the driver be rebuilded right then?
[18:57] <jrib> Zteam: I don't know.  Like I said, I'm just giving you something to try
[18:57] <trism> Zteam: according to apt-cache, the header is a dependency of nvidia kernel source, so it should be installed
[18:57] <sam__> hello can some one tell me how do i terminate vnc server running on my ubuntu please i want to do it via terminal
[18:57] <ibuclaw> Zteam, last time I checked - dkms depends on linux-headers | linux-headers-generic
[18:58] <ibuclaw> this invokes behaviours
[18:58] <ibuclaw> meaning that certain packages can fill the dependency requirements of dkms - but may not necessarily be the packages you *really* need.
[18:59] <borgicheb> So, ALSA seems to load ok and lspci detects the sound card.  Does anyone have a test file I could use with aplay ?
[18:59] <ende> 10 gigs be sufficient?
[18:59] <Zteam> jrib: Well, I tried to upgrade the nvidia driver from this repository: http://ppa.launchpad.net/nvidia-vdpau/ppa/ubuntu
[18:59] <Zteam> in order to get a new version, but that didn't work at all
[18:59] <ibuclaw> ende, for / ? yes.
[19:00] <Gnarwal> When the computer is idle, my screen goes black after 15 minutes. I checked my power management settings and screen saver and they are set to never.

[19:11] <Hydrosis> my computer isset to not sleep or hibernate, and my monitor is set to sleep after 30 mins.  When it does, I get an entire system lock and it doesnt wake up.  I need to hard restart.  Why the heck wont this stop hibernating and why the heck wont it wake up.  help?
[19:11] <Mud> l1nUx1z3r: o rly?
[19:11] <Dextronaught> uhh, well, Idk, in general I can't edit important files when I'm trying to install sound drivers and such
[19:11] <sam__> l1nUx1z3r: i know about goole mate
[19:11] <Dextronaught> and I'd rather just... be able to edit it and save it, rather than have to edit it through terminal
[19:12] <sam__> google*
[19:12] <newbie123abc> Myrtti: every time that machine is restarted. I need to adjust using xrandr
[19:12] <VCoolio> Dextronaught: use "gksudo gedit" in the alt+f2 window
[19:12] <l1nUx1z3r> sam__, try googling for the command for the server
[19:12] <Myrtti> newbie123abc: you could try asking in #kubuntu, I suspect they'll offer a similar solution to grandr if possible
[19:12] <Dextronaught> ok, ty VCoolio.
[19:12] <lcb> what's the name of partition manager ubuntu uses while installing?
[19:12] <Hydrosis> gparted
[19:12] <VCoolio> Dextronaught: also "gksudo nautilus" if you must; but be aware it's easy to mess up stuff
[19:13] <newbie123abc> Myrtti: i would like to adjust for entire system, using xorg.conf
[19:13] <lcb> Hydrosis, realli? :o even when installing a minimal?
[19:13] <disappearedng> ChogyDan: hostfile on firefox?
[19:13] <lcb> oops.. really*
[19:13] <Hydrosis> 1cb: what do you mean "even when installing a minimal
[19:14] <lcb> Hydrosis, from minimal installation media
[19:14] <Myrtti> newbie123abc: I'm not familiar with setting the screen that way, sorry
[19:14] <Hydrosis> 1cb, you're essentially speaking chinese to me.  I have no idea what you mean.
[19:15] <blakkheim> !mini > Hydrosis
[19:16] <sam__> how can i remove a user from my root ubuntu please
[19:16] <ende> how large of a partition should I leave for swap?
[19:16] <ende> X1 memory of X 2 ?
[19:16] <ende> I forget
[19:16] <lcb> Hydrosis, well, i'll try to translate. when you install from a minimal cd image you'll have a partition editor on it. that's the one i wiould like to know the name/commAND
[19:16] <Hydrosis> blakkheim: That is useless for me.  Why message me that message?  I dont want to reinstall anything, I want to know why my hibernation doesnt work.  Or rather, why it hibernates and doesnt wake up when its set to NOT hibernate
[19:16] <Bo_Bo> swap 2 times ram
[19:16] <powertool08> ende: used to be 2xram, but 1gb is plenty for most people.
[19:17] <Bo_Bo> or less than 2 gb imho
[19:17] <ende> do I need to use a specific format for the swap space?
[19:17] <Bo_Bo> ende, you can't use only swap array
[19:17] <bullgard> I downloaded the DEB program package linux-source-2.6.31. The main file of it is now /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.31.tar.bz2. What is the standard ubuntu directory to expand this archive to?
[19:18] <Bo_Bo> ende, run the setup, you'll see
[19:18] <burzki> ende, ditto Bo_Bo 2x ram, but not more than 2gb
[19:18] <ende> so should I include that 2gb in the partition Im creating?
[19:18] <ende> or should I create a separate partition for it?
[19:18] <ende> I want to leave as much space as possible for another OS
[19:18] <powertool08> ende: I have a swap partition
[19:19] <jurisz> how to limit process to use only one cpu core?
[19:19] <Bo_Bo> ende, you'll make the partition while installing, so leave room for it
[19:19] <Myrtti> erict: swap is a separate partition in linux
[19:19] <Myrtti> meh
[19:19] <Myrtti> ende: even
[19:19] <burzki> ende, swap will be its own partition, at the filesystem type, select swap
[19:19] <ende> oky doky thanks
[19:19] <MegaHerz> Hi all
[19:19] <ende> will 9gb be enough for Ubuntu Netbook Remix?
[19:19] <burzki> ende, it can be much smaller if you want
[19:19] <Hydrosis> ende: yes
[19:19] <Bo_Bo> ende, yes
[19:20] <lcb> Hydrosis, looks like that was still too much chinese to you :p
[19:20] <ende> thanks guys, really appreciate it
[19:20] <Hydrosis> 1cb: no, it was off topic and not what we were initially talking about.  Confusing, to say the least.
[19:20] <MegaHerz> I mount old Debian HDD, with ext2 filesystem on Ubuntu 9. Now all russian files are shown like "??????????". I tried to start mc with different locale (LC_ALL=ru_RU.KOI8-R mc) but this doesn't help.
[19:20] <MegaHerz> Any ideas?
[19:20] <erict> Hey Myrtti, be a little more careful throwing my name around dude.
[19:20] <jMyles> How do I generate an apache SSL certificate in karmic?
[19:21] <erict> (I am kidding) ;)
[19:21] <burzki> hey.  after the last kernel update a day ago, my '3' key causes a restart when used in an open program .. any ideas?
[19:21] <Hydrosis> MegaHerz, look in the package manager for language packs.
[19:21] <Bo_Bo> MegaHerz, try to add ru locales
[19:21] <Myrtti> erict: be a little more careful making assumptions about my gender ;-) (likewise kidding)
[19:21] <lcb> anyone knows the program used to partition the disks when we install ubuntu?
[19:21] <Bo_Bo> lcb, parted?
[19:22] <MegaHerz> Bo_Bo: I added: locale-gen ru_RU.KOI-R, which was successfuly  generate.
[19:22] <MegaHerz> d
[19:22] <Hydrosis> 1cb: gparted, I already told you that
[19:22] <MegaHerz> Bo_Bo: and I know it was ru_RU.KOI8-R
[19:22] <MegaHerz> Bo_Bo: this is my old HDD
[19:22] <powertool08> lcb: Does it matter? As long as it gets the job done right?
[19:22] <Hydrosis> GParted is the Gnome Partition Editor application.
[19:22] <erict> Myrtti, I call everyone dude, dude. :)
[19:22] <Newky> Hydrosis: i think its not gparted in the installer as far as i no its a different partitioner
[19:22] <lcb> bo_bo, probably, although i think parted is not graphical
[19:23] <MegaHerz> Hydrosis: should I do somethings else except adding locale with locale-gen?
[19:23] <blakkheim> it's probably parted or fdisk
[19:23] <Hydrosis> Newky: looks like gparted to me.  I could be wrong, but the GUI leads me to believe its gparted.
[19:23] <Bo_Bo> lcb, i think parted is used below the gui of the installer, check docs, wiki, etc
[19:23] <Newky> Hydrosis: i agree it does look lik gparted bu think i remember readin somewhere it was something else, i could also b worng
[19:24] <lcb> powertool08, yes it matters for someone trying to install a graphical partition editor without too much resources consuming/requiring
[19:24] <phoebus> Trying to install libglib to get mricron to run, but I get E: Couldn't find package libglib1.2-dev -- any ideas?

[19:25] <ende> At the manual partition step (of ubuntu netbook remix install), I have my 9gb partition selected…. I think I have to change it …  do I want ext2 file system ?
[19:25] <Bo_Bo> lucky__, check the user settings
[19:25] <knight5482> Hello , does it possible to use grep to search for specific string in all files and sub-folders ?
[19:25] <Hydrosis> lucky__: http://www.watchingthenet.com/how-to-enable-automati-logon-in-ubuntu-or-kubuntu.html
[19:25] <Bo_Bo> ende, i think ext3 with journaling is better
[19:25] <Bo_Bo> knight5482, i think so
[19:26] <trism> knight5482: yes, include -R to search a directory
[19:26] <ende> but I can boot off that ?
[19:26] <Newky> knight5482: grep "string" /
[19:26] <Pici> knight5482: sure: grep -R "string" .
[19:26] <ende> basically I tried to select that partition I made for install and it said that it lacked a root something, told me to go change it in the partition menu
[19:26] <Newky> knight5482: what Pici said ignore mine :)
[19:26] <trism> knight5482: n and H are useful too in this case, to show the line number and the file of the match (although I think -H is default now)
[19:26] <jMyles> apache2-ssl-certificate doesn't work in karmic - so how to generate an apache ssl certificate?

[19:50] <arcanus> mikeg3: either, apt-get install nvidia-glx-180 would do it
[19:51] <Jordan_U> twig11: You could modify the iso a bit, delete some files, and try to get it down to a size that will fit
[19:51] <powertool08> twig11: I don't think so. I've overburned by 8mb before.

[19:53] <Parabola> OneOneFive wow..
[19:53] <ati> hello
[19:53] <Dextronaught> I currently have sound, but it's limited. I can hear sound on Java applications, and I can also access alsamixer and configure the settings, everything appears to be fine, I'm pretty sure. alsamixer in terminal also detected my mic, but no matter how I put the volume, I have no mic sound either.
[19:53] <Parabola> thats a windows application
[19:53] <Slart> borgicheb: try audacity.. or.. search in synaptic for swiss army knife sound ... there is a command line utility
[19:53] <Parabola> so not only is it impossible
[19:53] <powertool08> twig11: I'm not really sure. I did it back in my windows days with nero or something, just had to check a box.
[19:53] <Dextronaught> any help?
[19:53] <Parabola> it would be pointless
[19:54] <ati> how do i go about ubuntu recognizing scsi hdd
[19:54] <Pici> Slart: You probably meant sox
[19:54] <Hydrosis> He said program "like" CCleaner.
[19:54] <Slart> dj: perhaps it was introduced in 1.0.3
[19:54] <Parabola> borgicheb: Audacity is a good application
[19:54] <OneOneFive> anyone?
[19:54] <Slart> Pici: ahh.. that's the one, thanks
[19:54] <ati> is there a driver or software i have to install
[19:54] <jerico_> Parabola: that's why he said "like"
[19:54] <Parabola> theres no hneed for one
[19:54] <maco> Hydrosis: bleachbit
[19:54] <Parabola> write a shell script to do it
[19:54] <Hydrosis> Audacity is NOT a good application.  Its useless for recording mucis.
[19:54] <TidyBhoy> hey... is there a program that lets ya back up and/or sync my system to my external hdd so i have a recovery?#
[19:54] <Parabola> hes not recording

[19:54] <OneOneFive> im a noob, what should i do exactly? please?

[19:54] <grumbly> I need some assistance installing karmic from a netinstall with Wifi
[19:54] <dj> slart:how can i install vlc 1.0.3
[19:55] <Parabola> TidyBhoy then you can schedule it
[19:55] <grumbly> on a wpa network
[19:55] <twig11> What tools do I use in Karmic to overburn a 705 MB iso image onto a 700MB CD?
[19:55] <Parabola> dj apt-get install vlc
[19:55] <TidyBhoy> thanks parabola
[19:55] <maco> OneOneFive: it's a program that serves a similar purpose to the one ccleaner serves on windows.  system -> administration -> synaptic should have a checkbox to install it
[19:55] <Parabola> dj if its not in repos, you will need to get from videolan.org/vlc
[19:55] <Parabola> dj or check the backports repos
[19:55] <Dextronaught> laptop, arcanus
[19:55] <Dextronaught> sorry for delaying in my response.
[19:55] <OneOneFive> thanks
[19:55] <Slart> dj: wait for it to show up in ubuntus repos.. which might take a while.. or find a deb package for it .. or compile it from source
[19:55] <blakkheim> twig11: http://ports.ubuntu.com/dists/karmic/main/installer-powerpc/current/images/powerpc/netboot/mini.iso
[19:55] <dj> vlc is allready the newest instllalled
[19:56] <brontosaurusrex> scarface: ty
[19:56] <Parabola> dj: add backports repositories
[19:56] <Parabola> it may be in there
[19:56] <dj> parabola:its allready installed
[19:56] <Amm0n> someone knows how to deactivate the thumb-button of my mouse in firefox? i want to use this button as push to talk in mumble, and its disturbing me at surfing cause everytime i want to speak i`ll go backwards in my browserhistory..
[19:56] <Parabola> dj: there arent new features. its just bug fixes, are you experiencing one of hte bugs?
[19:56] <Parabola> Amm0n i wish
[19:56] <Parabola> lol
[19:57] <arcanus> Dextronaught: Do you have sounds through your on-board speakers or through your headset?
[19:57] <ati> how do i go about ubuntu recognizing scsi hdd
[19:57] <Amm0n> hehe
[19:57] <dj> sudo apt-get update
[19:57] <dj> % sudo apt-get install vlc vlc-plugin-esd mozilla-plugin-vlc
[19:57] <Dextronaught> uhh, headset, I didn't try with my onboard speakers, 1 second please.
[19:57] <dj> its done
[19:57] <arcanus> ati: What do you mean?
[19:57] <ybenitezf> h!
[19:57] <Parabola> Amm0n i just make sure when i talk in vent im not in firefox
[19:57] <Parabola> :D
[19:57] <grumbly> i've got a ra2860 and I can't seem to connect
[19:57] <Slart> Amm0n: if you've got 9.04 you can change the mouse buttons around in your xorg.conf.. in 9.10 I'm not really sure.. you could create your own xorg.conf but that seems a bit overkill
[19:57] <Parabola> Slart its firefox that grabs the button though, isnt it?
[19:58] <Amm0n> i got a second button to workaround but this is not optimal
[19:58] <Parabola> i dont think mouse4 is a systemwide "back" button
[19:58] <Slart> Parabola: yea, I guess you could change the shortcut in firefox too.. that's true
[19:58] <BitWraith> I have a Vaio UX running Vista Professional. I tried to install xubuntu on it via wubi, but I was having problems with my internet and I canceled the installation instead of waiting for the files to download. Now that my internet is fixed and I am ready to restart the process, it appears that wubi's cancel and uninstall controls are not working...
[19:58] <grumbly> Any love on this?
[19:58] <Parabola> Slart messing with mouse buttons in xorg is sticky business
[19:58] <Dextronaught> arcanus, I get sound out of both.
[19:58] <ati> arcanus well i am trying to see what is in the scsi drives
[19:58] <Pici> Parabola: I thought those were set in System>Preferences>Keyboard shortcuts
[19:58] <pookey> is 'keychain' still the standard way of having your ssh agent fired up on login via ssh ?
[19:59] <Dextronaught> but only on Java, not on youtube.
[19:59] <borgicheb> hydrosis:  it looks like audacity will be fine for my purpose.
[19:59] <Dextronaught> only some apps have sound, both onboard speakers and headset.
[19:59] <Parabola> borgicheb for slowing music yep
[19:59] <agroker> my ATI card and wireless card do not work under 9.10, is there an easy way to downgrade to 9.04?
[19:59] <arcanus> Dextronaught: Hmm, are you using karmic?
[19:59] <BitWraith> I noticed that wubi left some files behind, which were taking up nearly all of my remaining disk space, so I used the "uninstall" option to remove wubi... but the same amount od space is still occupied?
[19:59] <Parabola> agroker no
[19:59] <Slart> Parabola: it wasn't so hard when we had an xorg.conf to mess around with =) but I'm not sure if that would kill his/her voice chat program as well
[19:59] <Dextronaught> Idk what that is.
[19:59] <Parabola> agroker clean install
[19:59] <ati> arcanus any idea ?
[19:59] <Parabola> Slart yeah
[19:59] <agroker> Parabola, thanks
[19:59] <Parabola> Slart he would end up having his CDROM eject when he hits mouse4
[19:59] <Dextronaught> arcanus, I don't know what that is.
[20:00] <Myrtti> BitWraith: check if you've got the iso image lying about somewhere
[20:00] <vlt> ati: `blkid` should show this
[20:00] <Parabola> or somthing equally as cool
[20:00] <yellowrooster> can someone help me with sql/sqlite
[20:00] <yellowrooster> ?
[20:00] <arcanus> ati: SCSI disks are listed as sd## in dev, does that help?
[20:00] <Slart> Parabola: =)
[20:00] <Parabola> yellowrooster check the sql channel
[20:00] <Amm0n> Parabola, lol
[20:00] <Viliny> i can not wrap my head around /etc/network/interfaces atm, i want to get an interface that takes an ip from the dhcp server of my isp from a bridgeing adsl modem, essentially totally exposing eth0 to wan, but i can not get it to work with auto eth0 -brake- iface eth0 inet dhcp
[20:00] <vlt> ati: or `fdisk -l /dev/sd?`
[20:00] <Myrtti> arcanus: all the discs are listed as sd##
[20:00] <Dextronaught> arcanus, that for me?
[20:00] <BitWraith> Myrtti, before I started, I had a little over 8GB of space left... now I have less than 1GB. Obviously that's not a disk image.
[20:00] <ati> i can see them in computer but can't see whats in there
[20:01] <arcanus> Dextronaught: no sorry, karmic is the latest ubuntu release 9.10
[20:01] <BitWraith> brb, the gadget ran out of batteries, I have to plug it in... lol
[20:01] <Viliny> never mind ppl, network cable out
[20:01] <borgicheb> yeah, in fact audacity works perfectly for slowing down an mp3.
[20:01] <vlt> Viliny: Should work. What does `ifconfig -a` tell you about the interface?
[20:01] <Dextronaught> yes, I am.
[20:01] <Parabola> Viliny LOL
[20:01] <Dextronaught> the latest.
[20:01] <Parabola> borgicheb i've used it for just that reason before :)
[20:01] <vlt> ati: What does `blkid` say about the contents of the scsi disk?
[20:02] <powertool08> twig11: I opened a project to burn a 1.8 gb file to a 700mb cd and brasero says: data too large for disc even with overburn option. It appears to automatically check for overburn availability.
[20:02] <Dextronaught> arcanus, also, if I play a music cd, no sound there either.
[20:02] <Dextronaught> even though the player tries to play it.
[20:02] <phoebus_> how do you install getlibs? another package apt get can't get.
[20:02] <ati> vlt it dosen't say anything
[20:03] <OneOneFive> how can i learn the best to use the terminal?
[20:03] <vlt> Viliny: hehe ;-)  I just wanted to recommend `ethtool eth0` to see if there's a connection at all
[20:03] <BitWraith> I'm back
[20:03] <burzki> grumbly, youre gonna have to say more than that.  state your actual full problem ..
[20:03] <woodt> Greetings!  I'm having a bit of a problem releasing a LVM snapshot.  I had no luck using lvremove - kept saying the volume was busy.  I ended up having to dmsetup to forceably remove the mapped volume, then I was able to run lvremove on the logical volume.  How can I prevent the dmsetup step from being necessary?
[20:03] <brontosaurusrex> scarface: find . -type f -exec md5sum {} \; >> checkall.md5 ?
[20:04] <vlt> ati: Accessing block devices like a scsi disk needs admin rights. Open a root shell or prepend "sudo" to any command
[20:04] <`mOOse`> guys - I have a question about swap partitions/files - does linux *require* them? I have a flashdrive install and I want to reclaim the (never used) swap of 500 megs it's taking up. Any ideas?
[20:04] <arcanus> Dextronaught: Sorry, im not able to help :(
[20:04] <Dextronaught> arcanus, you think somebody else could? lol
[20:04] <blakkheim> `mOOse`: no
[20:05] <arcanus> Dextronaught: Probably ;) If nobody answers you here now, post on the forums.
[20:05] <blakkheim> `mOOse`: i don't use swap and i'm fine
[20:05] <Slart> moomlyn_: nope.. swap isn't mandatory
[20:05] <BitWraith> Myrtti, just in case there are files left behind that neither the cancel button nor the uninstall option removed, where should I look for them?
[20:05] <Dextronaught> mhm, ok, ty.
[20:05] <ati> vlt it says squashfs
[20:05] <vlt> woodt: What exactly did you have to do (dmsetup what)?
[20:05] <BitWraith> C:\Ubuntu\ appears to have already been removed.
[20:05] <`mOOse`> ok, thanks - I have questions about how to do this...is there a HOWTO or tutorial I can see?
[20:05] <vlt> ati: So it's squashfs ;-)
[20:06] <OneOneFive> what are exactly the apt and apt-get?
[20:06] <ati> yes what does that mean ?
[20:06] <Slart> !apt
[20:06] <Carci> Heh, I've wondered that myself for a while. I know what it DOES, but not what it MEAN--oooh.
[20:06] <shane2peru> for nvidia what do you recommend open source drivers or proprietary ???
[20:06] <borgicheb> apt-get is almost the same thing as using synaptic to manage packages.
[20:07] <vlt> `mOOse`: `swapoff -a`
[20:07] <Aled> could I dual boot XP under Ubuntu without creating a partition?
[20:07] <Slart> shane2peru: proprietary for performance
[20:07] <urthmover> is it possible to configure gnome to put a blue shadow behind the window in focus?  If so how?
[20:07] <powertool08> twig11: Also, found an overburn bug on older versions of brasero which was fixed in 0.9.x If yours isn't this new, try upgrading brasero.
[20:07] <borgicheb> But apt-get is command line...
[20:07] <Aled> Such as like you get the option to create a distrobution of Ubuntu under XP
[20:07] <vlt> `mOOse`: Then remove the swap line from /etc/fstab
[20:07] <blakkheim> borgicheb: so?
[20:07] <Slart> urthmover: perhaps not gnome.. but perhaps compiz?
[20:07] <happy_> shane2peru: depends on your situation. Do you plan to ever use 3d graphics rendering? If so, proprietary is better
[20:07] <shane2peru> Slart, better performance with proprietary then, thanks
[20:07] <Myrtti> borgicheb: aptitude is almost like using synaptic. apt-get is a bit simplistic compared to it
[20:07] <Slart> shane2peru: yes
[20:07] <kulight> i getting an error while trying to install nvidia 195 drivers from ppa any one can help? http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m5e8a4bfe
[20:07] <shane2peru> happy_, yep, 3d, thanks.
[20:07] <woodt> vlt: I had to run "dmsetup -f remove volume_group_name/snapshot_name" before I ran lvremove to get rid of a snapshot LV.  It seems that the device mapper grabbed it too.  I'd really like the device mapper driver to leave it alone - the only use I have for snapshots and LVM on this machine is as a KVM host.
[20:08] <ati> vltyes what does that mean ?
[20:08] <`mOOse`> ok vlt - will the OS be smart enough to know to show that partition as useable for date/pgms after that? (isn't it marked as a swap type"
[20:08] <Slart> shane2peru: I think the only reason to use the open source driver is just that.. that they are open source.. not better.. not more stable.. not faster.. just freer =)
[20:08] <`mOOse`> )?
[20:08] <shane2peru> Slart, just install them through the hardware drivers or manually?  What would you recommend?
[20:08] <borgicheb> Myrtti: the man page for apt-get says:  apt-get is the command-line tool for handling packages, and may be
[20:08] <borgicheb>        considered the user´s "back-end" to other tools using the APT library.
[20:08] <borgicheb>        Several "front-end" interfaces exist, such as dselect(8), aptitude(8),
[20:08] <borgicheb>        synaptic(8), gnome-apt(1) and wajig(1).
[20:08] <FloodBot1> borgicheb: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:08] <ati> vlt yes what does that mean ?
[20:08] <duffydack> This is a weird one.  I was viewing images, fullscreen in gthumb and all of a sudden my whole top panel has that part of the image as a backdrop instead of the black dust style colour
[20:08] <Slart> shane2peru: go with the hardware manager
[20:08] <urthmover> Is it possible to put a /msg Slart thanks again for the response I have the place in compiz to do it...but I can't seem to figure out how to just do the window in focus...I can get a blue shadow behind any particular app I want , but I want only the window in focu
[20:08] <borgicheb> oh, sorry, FloodBot.
[20:09] <vlt> woodt: If you use an LV for something else (like loop devices) lvm will refuse to delete them.
[20:09] <Nafai> Is there an .ics or google calendar feed somewhere I can subscribe to for the Ubuntu Developer week so I can remember it?
[20:09] <OneOneFive> what progarmming languages would u reccomend to start with?
[20:09] <borgicheb> How do you use paste.ubuntu.com?
[20:09] <shane2peru> Slart, ok, thanks!
[20:09] <borgicheb> @OneOneFive for what purpose?
[20:09] <racquad> hi guys, I'm with trouble with .htaccess file and userdir module. .htaccess is ok in regular paths, but doesn't work at all under userdir paths
[20:09] <Carci> OneOneFive: assembly (kidding)
[20:09] <kulight> !pastebin
[20:09] <Slart> urthmover: I'm not really sure.. have a look at the ADD helper stuff.. that usually does things to the window in focus
[20:09] <ati> vlt ??
[20:10] <OneOneFive> im not sure yet, i just dont like the idea of not knowing how computers anf the internet work
[20:10] <urthmover> ok Slart  I'll investigate the ADD helper stuff more thanks for the advice
[20:10] <Slart> urthmover: you're using the window decoration plugin to do the shade?
[20:10] <vlt> `mOOse`: The partition is "formatted" as swapspace, yes. To use it for data you'll have to put a file system on it. `mkfs.<type> <your_partition>`
[20:10] <Mister_M> Hi all
[20:10] <borgicheb> @OneOneFive Like, do you have specific tasks you need to get done, or are you just trying to learn how to program?
[20:10] <urthmover> Slart: let me double check  hang on
[20:10] <OneOneFive> u are experienced users, maybe u could give me some hint
[20:10] <Carci> OneOneFive: As far as the internet goes, things like Perl, Python, or PHP are used a ton. Uhm... would be good learning HTML if you don't know that already (although it's not really a programming language, but it's got similar ideas)...
[20:10] <`mOOse`> vlt - aaaahh I see - ok thanks - that gets me started!!
[20:11]  * `mOOse` goes to read!
[20:11] <za119> hey I am trying to install my linksys wired NIC card, and it keeps saying that eth0 and eth1 are not working in the /etc/network/interfaces file ..... it shows up in LSPCI, what do I put into my interfaces file to get the card working
[20:11] <urthmover> Slart: yes window decoration does the shade
[20:11] <OneOneFive> so python, html, c and derivates?
[20:11] <vlt> `mOOse`: `mkfs.ext3 /dev/sda2` for example
[20:11] <za119> anyone??
[20:11] <`mOOse`> vlt - yes, it's all coming back to me - once upon a time in another life I knew this stuff ;-)
[20:12] <woodt> vlt, I'm just using LVM for KVM on this box.  That's all.  There's little to no reason for the host operating system to care what's on the virtuals' file systems.  All I need to be able to do is create LVM snapshots, mount them, back them up, and then release them via lvremove.  But I have to have that intermediate step of the "dmsetup -f" to get device mapper to turn it loose.  Why does DM even attach itself to the LVM snapshot?
[20:12] <borgicheb> @OneOneFive I usually recommend Java to people as a first language, since it's easier to read than PERL.   I know the hardcore computer science programs like berkeley and MIT use Scheme.
[20:12] <vlt> `mOOse`: btw, I'd nearly always recommend using LVM to manage storage space.
[20:12] <Slart> urthmover: I don't really see a configuration option to only do the shadow on the window in focus.. the ADD helper seems to only decolourize or darken/brighten the out-of-focus windows.. it doesn't really mention shadows..
[20:12] <happy_> OneOneFive: I recomend python as a first computer programming language.
[20:12] <happy_> OneOneFive: html is NOT a programming language
[20:12] <`mOOse`> vlt - VLM? That's one I'm not familiar with
[20:12] <phoebus_> Using getlibs, back in square one. Help someone please, need to get this program working for a lab. Check http://pastebin.ca/1748657 for the libraries missing.
[20:12] <Slart> urthmover: you can ask in #compiz ... they might know more in there
[20:13] <OneOneFive> ok thanks, u were really helpful (not kidding)
[20:13] <Mister_M> I've a problem with certainly ndiswrapper ... So at some time, the connexion was interrupted and gnome crash. I think that it's caused by the update to 9.10 .. Some help ?
[20:13] <borgicheb> @OneOneFive here's an article on the topic: http://www.acm.org/crossroads/xrds10-4/firstlang.html
[20:13] <gabriel__> hi all
[20:13] <Mister_M> Syslog : http://pastebin.com/m5675b863
[20:13] <Carci> Speaking of learning programming languages... I really should spend some time learning python. Anyone know a good place to look for instruction on that? >.>
[20:13] <gabriel__> does ubuntu not have a keychain anymore?
[20:13] <urthmover> Slart: I'm in there now hoping someone will speak up soon  thanks again
[20:13] <za119> trying to install my linksys wired NIC card, and it keeps saying that eth0 and eth1 are not working in the /etc/network/interfaces file ..... it shows up in LSPCI, what do I put into my interfaces file to get the card working
[20:13] <`mOOse`> I'm wondering how the OS would distribute data too - like, if I had a 10 gig partition and that 500 meg one, how would the OS know which to use to install pgms on, etc
[20:13] <Slart> urthmover: you're welcome
[20:13] <happy_> OneOneFive: a programming language can add 1+2. HTML can make the 4 look bold and be yellow :-)
[20:13] <vlt> woodt: I never experienced anything like this. Are you sure there's no script invoking dm?
[20:13] <brontosaurusrex> OneOneFive: if you are serious then probably python, if you just need to hack together some ideas on higher level, then maybe some php
[20:14] <`mOOse`> Especially since 99% of this stuff is pkg'd now
[20:14] <Oak> How can I check if my graphics card is working properly? I'm having trouble running low quality games as low as Ragnarok Online.
[20:14] <vlt> !lvm | `mOOse`
[20:14] <Viliny_> right, im currently trying to have my ubuntu box work as a nat gateway... i have 2 network cards and one is connected directly to isp with dhcp setup and the other card is acting as a dhcp server for my local machines. im very confused what to put where on the dhcp SERVER right now, gateways and such. anyone good at this?
[20:14] <`mOOse`> excellent - thanks!
[20:14] <maco> happy_: making the 4 bold and yellow is more CSS's job. html just tells the CSS that the 4 should be treated like text in code instead of text in a paragraph
[20:14] <OneOneFive> just one last question, should i buy some book about it or just look for some tutorila on the internet
[20:14] <vlt> `mOOse`: For simple setups ignore the RAID part.
[20:15] <happy_> maco: depends on if you use CSS :-P
[20:15] <`mOOse`> ok, yea, this is simple usb flash here
[20:15] <woodt> vlt, nothing I know of it grabbing the LV.  Something automagically is doing it.  Wish I could find out what it is.  Probably a hotplug/udev thing.  I just haven't found it yet.
[20:15] <za119> can anyone please help me? this is  A REAL SIMPLE QUESTION hey I am trying to install my linksys wired NIC card, and it keeps saying that eth0 and eth1 are not working in the /etc/network/interfaces file ..... it shows up in LSPCI, what do I put into my interfaces file to get the card working
[20:15] <happy_> OneOneFive: book
[20:15] <`mOOse`> I don't think it could be much simpler ;-)
[20:16] <happy_> maco: you only do CSS if you are doing it right :-P
[20:16] <BoriTori> hi guys, my DNS is working correctly, but when i try accessing my server, it keeps timing out
[20:16] <BoriTori> http://serverfault.com/questions/102027/apache2-server-keeps-timing-out-was-working-fine-3-weeks-ago
[20:16] <maco> OneOneFive: actually, i know an open book available as a pdf that's good for python basics
[20:16] <Carci> maco: Do tell :3
[20:16] <OneOneFive> really? it would be great, do u have a link or the title?
[20:16] <happy_> maco: diving into python?
[20:16] <maco> OneOneFive, Carci: http://www.openbookproject.net/thinkcs/python/english2e/
[20:16] <OneOneFive> i think so
[20:16] <OneOneFive> :)
[20:17] <maco> but i just remembered that one of the libraries it depends on is broken in 9.10
[20:17] <maco> so you ahve to use 9.04 with it :-/
[20:17] <za119> hey I am trying to install my linksys wired NIC card, and it keeps saying that eth0 and eth1 are not working in the /etc/network/interfaces file ..... it shows up in LSPCI, what do I put into my interfaces file to get the card working
[20:17] <maco> happy_: How to Think Like a Computer Scientist: Learning With Python
[20:17] <gabriel__> how do i get ubuntu to remember my ssh private key password?
[20:17] <gabriel__> karmic
[20:17] <Carci> maco: How big of a problem is the broken-ness? Completely ruins any chance of working anything with that guide in 9.10?
[20:18] <happy_> gabriel__: don't have a password on the key and it won't ask for one
[20:18] <woodt> gabriel__, look at the authorized_keys man page.
[20:18] <therobot> I'm thinking on adding a second internal hard disk to my desktop, but I'm wondering if it's possible to do it without opening a terminal in ubuntu, can anyone point me to the right direction?
[20:18] <maco> Carci: cant do the graphical games he has in there. the "how python works" stuff is still fine
[20:18] <Jordan_U> phoebus_: Try "apt-file search filename.so
[20:18] <maco> Carci: i think it starts around chapter 4 with the game writng
[20:18] <vlt> ati: The file system on (at least one partition of) your scsi disk seems to be squashfs. Try mounting it somewhere: `mount <disk_or_partition> <mount_point>`. Example: `mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/my-scsi-disk`
[20:18] <gabriel__> happy_: that's not too secure, huh ;)
[20:18] <happy_> maco: I need to look this over. I will need to start recommending it
[20:18] <gabriel__> woodt: will try that
[20:19] <Carci> Alright.
[20:19] <maco> happy_: one of its authors is in the ubuntu community. he wrote it for his classroom
[20:19] <Carci> maco: thanks! :D
[20:19] <happy_> gabriel__: well... more secure than it remembering the key? Besides do you even allow password only logins? then key pass is pointless
[20:19] <Phoebus> Jordan_U, down to 1 dependency libgdk_pixbuf.so.2
[20:19] <za119> hey can anyone please help me install my linksys NIC card - I just need to config it in interfaces - THIS IS REALLY SIMPLE CAN ANYONE HELP ME
[20:19] <gabriel__> woodt: ah i was thinking more along what used to be gnome-keyring
[20:20] <gabriel__> i see now that its seahorse, but dont know how to "get at it"
[20:20] <Slart> za119: what does your interfaces file look like at the moment?
[20:20] <Aled> Can Pidgen parse BB-Code form people who use MsgPlus extension on Windows Live for Microsoft Windows?
[20:20] <burzki> therobot, once you have it formatted, ubuntu will see it in nautilus as a filesystem
[20:20] <Carci> print "Hello, World!" -- seriously, that's it? >.>
[20:21] <Slart> !paste | za119
[20:21] <Carci> Like, the hello world program... is just that line? o.o
[20:21] <za119> Slart - THANK YOU FOR HELPING, http://paste.ubuntu.com/355681/
[20:21] <therobot> burzki: even it's already formated as fat32?
[20:21] <Slart> za119: and please.. stop with the caps.. it gets very annoying
[20:21] <Jordan_U> Phoebus: Do you have libgtk2.0-0 installed?
[20:21] <Pici> Carci: yes. But #python is the place to be for python programming :)
[20:21] <za119> Slart sorry
[20:22] <Phoebus> Jordan_U, yeah I think so.
[20:22] <Carci> Hehehh, I gotta go learn more about dis now. :3
[20:22] <DaZ> therobot: even ntfs!!1
[20:22] <Phoebus> yup at newest version
[20:22] <Rodensky> Hello ppl - ubuntu 9.04 - I reinstalled alsamixer after having sound problems, so now I can hear without any problem but the mic isn't working... :\
[20:22] <burzki> therobot, i think so - you have a windows disc?
[20:22] <therobot> DaZ:  awesome
[20:22] <za119> Slart it says eth0: ERROR while getting interface flags: no such device failed to bring up eth0
[20:23] <therobot> burzki: it's and old windows disc I just pretend to copy some files
[20:23] <dj> hey guys does this work on your vlc http://ubuntuguide.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/vlc1.png
[20:23] <Phoebus> k thank god finally fixed
[20:23] <Jordan_U> Phoebus: Are you using the gtk 1.0 version or the gtk 2.0 version of mricron?
[20:23] <BitWraith> Rodensky, call up alsamixer in the terminal... the mic is probably muted.
[20:24] <Slart> za119: well.. you're telling it to bring up eth0 automatically... but you don't tell it what to do with eth0.. you just define eth1
[20:24] <master_> can i help someone?
[20:24] <Slart> za119: you are running without gnome/KDE right?
[20:24] <ZimCS> I'd like to install Ubuntu as primarily a backup service and file sharer, but would also like to make use of playing video and other media out via HDMI.  Should I install the desktop version of Ubuntu, or the Server edition and add other services?  This is all for a home server.
[20:24] <za119> Slart ... I tried the same thing in interfaces with eth1 I get the same error - i am running ubuntu server 9.10
[20:25] <gabriel__> ah, so its applications -> accessories -> passwords and ecryption keys
[20:25] <vlt> za119: `ifconfig -a`
[20:25] <Slart> za119: what's the output of "ifconfig" ?
[20:25] <Rodensky> BitWraith: That's the problem - it's all up. That was the problem last time - everything was up and still there was no sound, only after reinstalling i could hear sound
[20:25] <Slart> za119: or rather "ifconfig -a" as vlt suggested =)
[20:26] <master_> can i help somenoe?
[20:26] <therobot> DaZ: burzki: my fault, I just turned on the computer, logged in via ssh (without entering through the graphical interface) and the machine did not show the HD. After login through the graphical interface it's mounted which is great. Thanks :)
[20:26] <prem__> Hi all
[20:26] <BitWraith> Rodensky, highlight the imc and press m on your keyboard
[20:26] <prem__> does anyone know how to start dictd with 'upstart'
[20:26] <za119> it was using eth2 slart THANK YOU SO MUCH BUDDY!!!!!!
[20:26] <burzki> therobot, it should see it, otherwise reformat to ext3/4
[20:26] <BitWraith> same for your PCM and master channels, if necessary
[20:26] <maestrojed> I have built LAMP server with Ubuntu. I am missing a mail server that would allow me to use php's sendmail(). What would be the easiest to install/get up and running?
[20:26] <burzki> therobot, good
[20:27] <kinja-sheep> prem__: sudo service dictd start, maybe?
[20:27] <Rodensky> BitWraith: you ment the mic?
[20:27] <BitWraith> yes
[20:27] <plata>  
[20:27] <Slart> za119: glad to help.. or whatever you want to call what I did =)
[20:27] <cheese_> @master You can help me!
[20:27] <Jimmy_Spong> hey
[20:27] <vlt> za119: please no caps
[20:27] <Jimmy_Spong> can somoene help me
[20:27] <prem__> kinja-sheep, that will start dictd as standalone server I was more interested in starting it on the fly, like xinetd, may be I am confused between two
[20:27] <Myrtti> !ask | Jimmy_Spong
[20:28] <Jimmy_Spong> my driver web page
[20:28] <Jimmy_Spong> doesnt offer linux driver
[20:28] <za119> slart sorry for the caps before, but now it won't ping anything, it keeps saying destination unreachable
[20:28] <Jimmy_Spong> so is there chance that it will be plug and play
[20:28] <Jimmy_Spong> do i need all drivers ?
[20:28] <Jimmy_Spong> there is only chipset driver offered
[20:28] <Myrtti> Jimmy_Spong: depends on your device
[20:28] <lenin_> hello all
[20:28] <dj> hey guys i get this error when trying to install vlc http://www.pastebin.ca/1748743
[20:28] <master_> can i help you?
[20:29] <beeny> anybody know if there is an ipod app I can install with ubuntu ??
[20:29] <Jimmy_Spong> can you be more precise ? would you know if my device is supported ?
[20:29] <Slart> za119: hmm.. pastebin ifconfig -a and your new interfaces file
[20:29] <Slart> !ipod | beeny
[20:29] <ZimCS> master_: you can help me :)
[20:29] <Phoebus> Jordan_U, well I had to add sources to my repos, only way to fix it. Drove me crazy.
[20:29] <vlt> za119: `ip r`
[20:29] <lenin_> what is the name of grub config in ubuntu?
[20:29] <cheese_> Hello everyone! Total n00b here. First time on IRC. Help me out here?
[20:29] <Rodensky> BitWraith: The mic is up there, pressing m made no difference
[20:29] <Myrtti> Jimmy_Spong: I don't know which device you have, so I can't even start guessing
[20:29] <Hydrosis> cheese_ ask!
[20:29] <vlt> !ask | cheese_
[20:29] <maco> cheese_: well you've got the basics down already since you know where to type ;)
[20:29] <dj> hey guys i get this error when trying to install vlc http://www.pastebin.ca/1748743
[20:29] <Jimmy_Spong> well my motherboard  is asus on socket am2 , i think m2n-e
[20:30] <beeny> I want to install ipod to play podcasts I downloaded.
[20:30] <Hydrosis> dj: IN ENGLISH PLEASE
[20:30] <vlt> lenin_: menu.lst in grub >= 2, now grub.cfg
[20:30] <dj> hydrosis:iam using swedish ubuntu desktop
[20:30] <Myrtti> !hardware | Jimmy_Spong, you can start from here
[20:30] <cheese_> lol. mm kay. how do you go to a new channel?
[20:30] <BitWraith> Rodensky, look below the master channel and the PCM channel. you should see a green square if the channel is active and an empty square if it is muted. make sure they are turned up before you bother with the mic
[20:30] <maco> cheese_: this is a channel. there are many of them on this server.  if you say someone's name, their client should highlight them and maybe make a noise. and umm... oh you can type the beginning of their name then hit tab to complete the rest of it instead of typing it all the way out.
[20:30] <Jimmy_Spong> ok ill check it
 senks
[20:30] <za119> http://paste.ubuntu.com/355689/ vlt slart
[20:30] <jiffe> whats a good network speed tester I can use between 2 ubuntu machines?
[20:30] <maco> cheese_: depends on your client, but "/join #channelname" usually works
[20:31] <jiffe> that doesn't involve disk
[20:31] <Dextronaught> I currently have sound, but it's limited. I can hear sound on Java applications, and I can also access alsamixer and configure the settings, everything appears to be fine, I'm pretty sure. alsamixer in terminal also detected my mic, but no matter how I put the volume, I have no mic sound either.
[20:31] <m0ar> I need help fixing my wireless connection!
[20:31] <Slart> dj: are you using some old version of ubuntu?
[20:31] <maco> cheese_: and by "depends on your client" i mean that i'm not sure pidgin and empathy can do that, but dedicated IRC clients pretty much all can
[20:31] <dj> slart yes iam on ubuntu 8.0
[20:31] <cheese_> oo. cool! thanks!
[20:31] <vlt> za119: Where are you trying to ping to?
[20:31] <cheese_> how do I check for channels?
[20:31] <Slart> dj: 8.04 ?
[20:31] <dj> slart yes
[20:31] <Slart> 8.04
[20:31] <Slart> !8.04
[20:32] <za119> vlt anything... my router and outside internet dosent work
[20:32] <Hydrosis> Dextronaught: Ubuntu sound is a joke.  You CANT hear sound out of the speakers when using a mic.  This means you cant hear a guitar either.  Very VERY useless for music and sound, is ubuntu.
[20:32] <dj> i updated before to 9.0 but ihad problems with my graphic intel card
[20:32] <revlo> hi is lxde not avaible in 8.04 and only in 9.04 or similiar? aptitude does not find something? if so is there a backport to install it?
[20:32] <Dextronaught> oh.
[20:32] <Slart> dj: it's possible that the newest vlc isn't installable on that version. because of dependencies
[20:32] <Rodensky> BitWraith: Their up. I can hear songs and stuff, it's the mic that isn't working (built in, it's a laptop)
[20:32] <vlt> za119: `ip r`
[20:32] <m0ar> Hydrosis: Bullshit.
[20:32] <Dextronaught> so... what should I do, Hydrosis?
[20:32] <Dextronaught> lol
[20:32] <dj> slart: are there any problems with ubuntu 9.0
[20:32] <Hydrosis> n0ar: how is it bullshit?
[20:32] <alc> lphairc.com
[20:33] <cheese_> maco?
[20:33] <Pici> m0ar, Hydrosis: Please mind your language here.
[20:33] <BitWraith> Rodensky, press F5 in alsamixer and make sure the mic is set as the capture device
[20:33] <za119> vlt it says "192.1.0/24 dev eth2 proto kernet scope link src 192.168.1.203 default via 192.168.1.200 dev eth2 metric 100"
[20:33] <maco> cheese_: hmm?
[20:33] <Rodensky> BitWraith: Also, last time I had to reinstall because everything was up, nothing muted, yet I couldn't hear anything, but the mic worked.
[20:33] <Hydrosis> Dextronaught: I use Windows for recording.
[20:33] <BitWraith> I think it is F5... let me make sure
[20:33] <Rodensky> BitWraith: The capture is up and green, not muted
[20:33] <maco> cheese_: oh. umm depends on your client.
[20:33] <Dextronaught> Hydrosis, I don't want to record.
[20:33] <Dextronaught> I just want sound on youtube.
[20:33] <maco> cheese_: i think "/list"
[20:33] <Slart> dj: well.. it's not a LTS version.. so it might have some extra features (or bugs as you might call them)
[20:33] <pmendez169> has anyone had a problem burning and running ubuntu minimal image? when i run it and type cli all i get is a black screen
[20:33] <Jimmy_Spong> hmmm it says sound , ethernet sata pata whatever worked
[20:33] <maco> cheese_: but i usually do that the graphical way, so im not sure
[20:34]  * Dr_Willis wants a world where sound card makers all release all specs for their cards.
[20:34] <BitWraith> Just out of curiosity, how did you know the mic was working if ou had no sound\?
[20:34] <Slart> dj: I use the same version for my server.. I don't need the new fancy stuff for that.. and I know that it will be stable and do its thing
[20:34] <dj> slart:is 9.04 the latest one
[20:34] <m0ar> Can anyone guide me through fixing my wireless? I'm in kinda desperate need of help
[20:34] <Hydrosis> Dextronaught: I have no idea.  I have no sound when playing games, no sound from mic via speakers, etc.  Karmic is junk for audio. Its made my PC experience these last few weeks horrid.
[20:34] <pmendez169> can anyone help me?
[20:34] <Slart> dj: nope.. 9.10 is the latest one.. 9.10 = 2009, month 10
[20:34] <cheese_> ok, ok. and if a channel doesn't exist, I can make it up right?
[20:35] <maco> cheese_: ok i'm being told i should tell you "/msg alis help" instead of "/list"
[20:35] <za119> zlt any luck??
[20:35] <m0ar> Hydrosis: That's just wierd.  Try purging pulseaudio, solved all soudproblems for me
[20:35] <Dextronaught> I have sound from Java on Firefox, and... basic sound, but not from playing audio CDs or youtube.
[20:35] <Dr_Willis> cheese_:  yes. just /join #myfancychannel
[20:35] <burzki> Jimmy_Spong, why dont you start with a question about your Actual Specific problem ..
[20:35] <Slart> dj: have you tried 9.10? I think they fixed some of the intel issues since 9.04
[20:35] <Jimmy_Spong> that was my actuall specific problem
[20:35] <Dextronaught> moar, is pulseaudio an app?
[20:35] <pmendez169> has anyone had a problem burning and running ubuntu minimal image? when i run it and type cli all i get is a black screen
[20:35] <Hydrosis> m0ar: I shouldnt have to.  Ubuntu should work.  All other OS's work.
[20:35] <dj> slart: do i need to do fresh install or just upgrade
[20:35] <m0ar> Hydrosis: Then go windoose.
[20:35] <vlt> za119: Can you ping the gateway 192.168.1.200?
[20:36] <Dextronaught> Hydrosis, Linux isn't for everybody lol.
[20:36] <burzki> Jimmy_Spong, good then, you're all fixed
[20:36] <za119> vlt I cannot
[20:36] <Jimmy_Spong> y
[20:36] <Jimmy_Spong> be bye
[20:36] <za119> vlt I get destination host unreachable
[20:36] <Slart> dj: I think you can upgrade.. although I think it would be best to try a live cd first.. just to see if your graphics work alright
[20:36] <Dr_Willis> !info ubuntustudio
[20:36] <Hydrosis> m0ar: I do use windows for audio, gaming and anything that NEEDS to be done.  Im stuck here trying to get Ubuntu to work.  It hates me.

[20:36] <vlt> za119: What about `ping 192.168.1.203`?
[20:37] <m0ar> Hydrosis: Everything worked out of the box for me, and allof the people I know. The only soundproblems I had was solved by a single command.7
[20:37] <Slart> Hydrosis: just to add some more data to your statistics.. I can play sound, record sound, play and record at the same time using pulseaudio etc etc.. no problems at all.. running on 9.10
[20:37] <Dextronaught> m0ar, is pulseaudio an app? do you think it'll help me?
[20:37] <za119> vlt I get a regular ping response when i ping 192.168.1.203 - it is my own IP
[20:37] <m0ar> Dextronaught: Sure, we can try
[20:37] <Hydrosis> Dr_Willis: Just to make it clear, as a recording artist I find UbStudio to n ot be the best.  It has a lot of apps, but they are all very weak for editing audio.
[20:37] <Dextronaught> it's an app? do I get it off synaptic?
[20:37] <m0ar> Dextronaught: Try to use the command sudo apt-get purge pulseaudio
[20:37] <vlt> za119: `ethtool eth2` last line
[20:37] <Dextronaught> Oo k
[20:37] <Dr_Willis> Hydrosis:  means very little to me. I dont record anything.. but then again. i dont have any sound issues on my 5 machines..
[20:37] <Rodensky> BitWraith: All up and is set to max (master, capture, etc) - got other idea?
[20:38] <Dr_Willis> Hydrosis:  it all boils down to  the chipset of the audio card i guess.
[20:38] <m0ar> Dextronaught: That'll remove everything about pulseaudio
[20:38] <BitWraith> Rodensky, As far as I can tell, you have alsa working, I think you just need to make sure pulse is using alsa's output. I don't actually have an ubuntu box running in front of me now, so I can't see the menu, which would make it very difficult for me to help you.:-/
[20:38] <phaer> Dextronaught: Its a sound server, it should be included and running in recent ubuntu versions
[20:38] <za119> vlt I do not have internet I cannot install ethtool
[20:38] <undecim> m0ar: Have you gotten your wireless working yet?
[20:38] <m0ar> undecim: No :/
[20:38] <m0ar> undecim: Think you can help me out?
[20:38] <undecim> m0ar: I'll try. You said that you can connect to the router, but not reach the internet, correct?
[20:39] <m0ar> Indeed
[20:39] <Rodensky> BitWraith: thanks anyway
[20:39] <vlt> za119: Is there an LED on the router that flashes on your port when you run the ping?
[20:39] <undecim> m0ar: What happens when you ping 192.168.0.1?
[20:40] <Dextronaught> ok, m0ar, I did that command you did about pulseaudio. so I removed it? now what.
[20:40] <za119> vlt no it does not
[20:40] <m0ar> Dextronaught: Try the sound, if it works
[20:40] <BitWraith> Rodensky, no problem... I think it might help dpkg-reconfigure the pulseaudio package, but since I've never done that before you should probably not take my word for it
[20:40] <Dextronaught> ok
[20:41] <James_-_> setting up a new clean firewall install can someone recommend a good list of IPs to block to help keep out the evil, annoying, and stupid... for me this is to include any and all net crawlers and bots for search engines as i don't have anything making me money back here so i don't need listed anywhere
[20:41] <vlt> za119: There is none or it doesn't flash?
[20:41] <m0ar> Dextronaught: If it doesn't, reinstall pulse with 'sudo apt-get install pulseaudio'
[20:41] <James_-_> lol I don't mean a list here but a link to a good list
[20:41] <Dextronaught> ok
[20:42] <pmendez169> can someone help me? i have set up a minimal install up the way i want it. i have come to set up on my laptop. burned the mini.iso to disc and booted it up typed cli and it just freezes
[20:42] <za119> zlt nothings working!!
[20:42] <BitWraith> Are there any other channels that provide support for wubi? Nobody here seems to know where the files are I need to remove...
[20:42] <Dextronaught> m0ar, no I still don't get sound, even after reinstalling pulseaudio. should I close firefox and reopen it to get it to work? maybe reboot my system?
[20:43] <Leoneof`> hi
[20:43] <m0ar> Dextronaught: You have NO sound at all?
[20:43] <Dextronaught> I do.
[20:43] <Dextronaught> only on Java
[20:43] <vlt> za119: `tail -f /var/log/messages`, then dis- and reconnect the network cable.
[20:44] <m0ar> Dextronaught: well, then IDK
[20:44] <Dextronaught> not on flash like youtube
[20:44] <Dextronaught> Ok.
[20:44] <Dextronaught> I'm just gonna post it on the forums
[20:44] <vlt> za119: (It's "vlt" btw)
[20:44] <pmendez169> can someone help me? i have set up a minimal install up the way i want it. i have come to set up on my laptop. burned the mini.iso to disc and booted it up typed cli and it just freezes
[20:44] <Dextronaught> cuz you're my second guy to help me.
[20:44] <master_> can i help you
[20:44] <mad93> hi, i've a 3g modem, but it only connects to gprs, not to umts, is there a way to force the connection to umts (i've utms signal)?
[20:44] <Dr_Willis> Flash can be a pain.. thats just a sad fact
[20:44] <ottoChauncey> i'm trying to extract a .img file using 'mount.' anyone know what the filesystem type is for .img?
[20:45] <Leoneof`> i've wlan0 that need ppp0 to connect to internet, so i want to share internet connection to LAN (eth0) crossover cable, any special settings?
[20:45] <Dr_Willis> ottoChauncey:  it could be anything.  what is this img exactly?
[20:45] <vlt> master_: You could help pmendez169 ;-)
[20:45] <ottoChauncey> music. a cd
[20:45] <za119> vlt I did that but nothing happened
[20:45] <za119> vlt before i unplugged it it said eth2: link up  on the screen
[20:45] <ottoChauncey> it's a cd image
[20:45] <za119> vlt and that didnt change when i unplugged it and plugged it back in
[20:46] <pmendez169> that be good :P. i have spent 2 hours in vbox setting it up and learning now i cant mirror that on my laptop
[20:46] <Dr_Willis> ottoChauncey:  then it might be iso9660, theres also the fuseiso and fuseis09660 tools that can auto detect and mount proplerly many of the fancy iso files out. Or convert the image to iso perhaps
[20:46] <vlt> za119: Did you take the right cable (maybe eth2 is not what you think it is ...)?
[20:46] <pmendez169> i have even tried putting it on a usb and still does the same
[20:47] <za119> vlt no I took the only ethernet cable in and out of my computer
[20:47] <ottoChauncey> Dr_Willis: Thanks. I'll give that a shot.
[20:48] <maestrojed> I have built LAMP server with Ubuntu. I am missing a mail server that would allow me to use php's sendmail(). What would be the easiest to install/get up and running?
[20:48] <vlt> za119: How many ethernet cards are there in your computer?
[20:48] <fallore> my pidgin window is missing the top titlebar, how can i close it and reopen it or what should i do to fix it?
[20:48] <za119> vlt 1
[20:49] <Dr_Willis> fallore:  just pidgin is missins that? or is all apps missing that?
[20:49] <vlt> za119: Any idea why it is called "eth2"?
[20:49] <powertool08> pmendez169: What do you mean you can't mirror it to a laptop? I saw a guide to take a vbox machine and install it locally as a native os, it looked pretty nasty though.
[20:49] <James_-_> setting up a new clean firewall install can someone recommend a good list of IPs to block to help keep out the evil, annoying, and stupid... for me this is to include any and all net crawlers and bots for search engines as i don't have anything making me money back here so i don't need listed anywhere...  anyone have a good link
[20:49] <za119> vlt no idea but when you told me to do ifconfig -a ... it showed up there as eth2, so I configured that in my interfaces file
[20:49] <fallore> Dr_Willis, just pidgin, and only the buddy list.
[20:50] <vlt> za119: Any other devices listed in `ifconfig -a`?
[20:50] <phaer> fallore: You could start "xkill" (alt-f2, xkill, enter) and click on the buddy list
[20:50] <Dr_Willis> fallore:  thats weird.  I wonder if it muight be a compiz issue.
[20:50] <Dr_Willis> fallore: alt-f4 might close the window also
[20:50] <fallore> that worked :D thanks phaer, and ty Dr_Willis
[20:51] <za119> vlt just lo
[20:52] <metatagg> My friends comp won't respond after installing proprietary drivers to his gfx-card... What to do?
[20:52] <vlt> za119: Is the cable plugged into the router on the other end?
[20:52] <za119> yes it is, I was just using it plugged into my dads computer vlt
[20:52] <marks256> If anyone here has complied their own kernel, what is your average compile time?
[20:53] <vlt> za119: `dmesg | tail`
[20:53] <metatagg> It's a toshiba satellite a300d, the gfx-card is ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650.
[20:53] <vlt> za119: Anything about eth2 link up/down there?
[20:53] <za119> vlt it says eth2: link up a bunch of times
[20:54] <za119> and in the middle it says eth2: no ipv6 routers present, but after that it sys link up again a few more times
[20:54] <metatagg> The screen goes blank after reboot, and the Caps light flashes
[20:55] <Dr_Willis> caps light flashing = nasty hard crash.
[20:55] <vlt> za119: Is it listed more often that you actually plugged the cable? Then it could be a hardware problem
[20:55] <BitWraith> metatagg, did you try safe graphics mode? it should be in the grub menu (esc early in the boot process)
[20:55] <za119> vlt no I pluged and un pluged it a few times
[20:55] <BitWraith> IIRC
[20:55] <metatagg> Wubi...
[20:55] <master_> can i hep you?
[20:56] <BitWraith> metatagg, Wubi is a multi-stage boot. it actually does use grub at a later stage
[20:56] <vlt> za119: Ok. Are you sure anything should respond from 192.168.1.200?
[20:56] <tich> hey!  does anyone know where i can find a screen saer that is a clock?
[20:56] <za119> it keeps saying destination host unreachable
[20:56] <_Rayan> ..
[20:56] <metatagg> BitWraith, Awesome, I'll tell him to press esc after choosing Ubuntu then. :)
[20:56] <Slart> tich: isn't there one included by default? opengl text?
[20:57] <tich> Slart, oh.  i will check it out now.
[20:57] <Slart> tich: ahh.. nevermind.. no configuration options in the default screensavers
[20:58] <za119> vlt im fucked i give up thans anyways buddy youve helped me alot today
[20:58] <vlt> za119: Any iptables rules that could block packets?
[20:58] <mikeg3> Hi..I am trying to install Ubuntu...I don't get any video on the Try ubuntu without installing option.
[20:58] <coz_> mikeg3,   tell me about your system hardware
[20:58] <popey355> bonsoir tout le monde
[20:58] <BitWraith> metatagg, hold on, I may have been wrong about the grub menu
[20:58] <domjohnson> I have a HDA Intel sound card, and followed the instructions on the HowTo to get it to work, but i don't know what my model is, and following the steps to find out on the wiki is no help. Can i list all of the possible models on the alsa-base file? Would that make it work?
[20:59] <Myrtti> mikeg3: what kind of video are you trying to play?
[20:59] <domjohnson> *an
[20:59] <metatagg> BitWraith, yea, he got a mini-shell
[20:59] <popey355> il y a t'il des francais ??? *
[20:59] <Myrtti> mikeg3: the try without installing doesn't have all the codecs and apps
[20:59] <metatagg> BitWraith, I think.. :O
[20:59] <Myrtti> !fr | popey355
[20:59] <vlt> !fr | popey355
[20:59] <mikeg3> nvidia gforce 6150se nforce 430
[20:59] <capon> hi all
[20:59] <BitWraith> metatagg, he must have clicked "recovery mode"
[20:59] <metatagg> aha
[20:59] <BitWraith> I was not sure if that would do what we want or not
[20:59] <mikeg3> I need the restricted nvidia drivers
[20:59] <master_> can i help you
[21:00] <coz_> mikeg3,   ok  and how much system memory is on board?  also type the first few letters of the persons'  name and hit tab  so that they are alerted :)
[21:00] <BitWraith> I believe the next thing he needs to do us sudo dpkg-reconfigure xorg
[21:00] <metatagg> BitWraith, he tried to install proprietary drivers, but the screen went black after reboot
[21:00] <BitWraith> is*
[21:00] <metatagg> aha
[21:00] <metatagg> but he can't get to a shell I think :/
[21:00] <mikeg3> no no shell
[21:00] <capon> I am trying to download ubuntu on virtualbox, and i dont know if ubuntu 9.10 is Linux 2.2 , 2.4 or 2.6    can somebody tell me? thanks
[21:01] <BitWraith> didn't he type in his user name and password? don't bother trying to log in as root by the way... ubuntu will only allow root access via sudo.
[21:01] <BitWraith> I normally do sudo su ;-)
[21:01] <bergkler> capon: it's 2.6
[21:01] <vlt> master_: I'd recommend reading the questions and just remain in stealth mode until you can answer one.

[21:01] <maco> BitWraith: why not "sudo -i"?
[21:02] <master_> can i help you
[21:02] <maco> BitWraith: "sudo su" wont change to root's environment, by the way
[21:02] <BitWraith> maco, I guess there's more than one way to do it.
[21:02]  * drida Welcome in Chat: w.w.w.Dardania.de & /S3rv3r ïrc,Dardania,de
[21:02]  * drida Welcome in Chat: w.w.w.Dardania.de & /S3rv3r ïrc,Dardania,de
[21:02] <maco> BitWraith: thatd be "sudo su -"
[21:02] <BitWraith> ah
[21:03] <maco> BitWraith: "sudo su" = "sudo -s" and "sudo su -" = "sudo -i"
[21:03] <brontosaurusrexw> how about just su ?
[21:03] <BitWraith> brontosaurusrexw, does that work on ubuntu?
[21:03] <Slart> su doesn't work on default ubuntu
[21:03] <Dr_Willis> its probly just best to learn to use 'sudo -s' and forget about the other ways. :)
[21:03] <Pici> !sudo
[21:03] <BitWraith> I thought it wouldn't as long as you can't log directly in as root
[21:03] <Ratizar> do i still need adobe flash player or i can use just moonlight and silverlight
[21:03] <maco> Dr_Willis: no no, "sudo -i" is the better one
[21:03] <brontosaurusrexw> works here, linux mint 7 (jaunty)
[21:04] <maco> BitWraith: right "su" wont work on default ubuntu
[21:04] <Dr_Willis> maco:  guids ive read say the  other way.. or i may be backwards..
[21:04] <Slart> maco: why is sudo -i better than sudo -s ?
[21:04] <maco> BitWraith: not unless you manually add a root password
[21:04] <Slart> !supportroot
[21:04] <maco> Slart: because it changes to root's environment instead of your own
[21:04] <Dr_Willis> http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2008/05/09/a-root-shell-on-ubuntu-the-right-way/
[21:04] <Slart> maco: is that a bad thing?
[21:04] <twig11> I really need some help recovering a Karmic install I just damaged. While trying to prepare a flash drive to boot ubuntu, I accidentally created a new blank partition map on /dev/sda, the drive my system is installed on. It kept running fine until I rebooted, and now it says it can't find a boot partition. I know my data is still there, because I could access it before I rebooted. Is there a way to fix this so I don't have to reinstall and
[21:04] <twig11>  recover from backup?
[21:04] <Leoneof`> h, i've wlan0 that need ppp0 to connect to internet, so i want to share internet connection to LAN (eth0) crossover cable, any special settings?
[21:04] <m0ar> Can someone help me set up a wireless connection?
[21:04] <Pici> brontosaurusrexw: Mint is not Ubuntu and is not supported here. Especially if they have root unlocked.
[21:05] <Dr_Willis> of course some times you do want the root userws enviroment.. so it all boils down to your exct needs I guess
[21:05] <Rodensky> Ubuntu 9.04 - I reinstalled alsamixer after having sound problems, so now I can hear without any problem but the mic isn't working... :\ (alsamixer in the terminal shows everything is up and nothing is muted)
[21:05] <maco> Slart: you usually want to have root's environment when operating as root, i think.
[21:05] <Ratizar> do i still need adobe flash player or i can use just moonlight and silverlight
[21:05] <kinja-sheep> Ratizar: Do what you want/need.
[21:05] <maco> Ratizar: moonlight is for silverlight. flashplayer is for flash. they are different technologies
[21:06] <maco> Ratizar: so you need flash for youtube and some other sites might have silverlight content, in which case you need moonlight
[21:06] <Slart> maco: mm.. I can't really think of a situation when it would be bad.. can't think of a situation where it would be desired either.. well well
[21:07] <maco> Slart: im not entirely sure in ubuntu how root's env is configured.  i know for example that $PATH is different between root and normal users on other distros
[21:07] <Slart> maco: mm.. that would make some sense, I guess
[21:07] <Slart> maco: thanks
[21:07] <m0ar> Can someone help me set up my wireless connection?  It's not far now, the most is done!
[21:07] <dom__> hi all
[21:07] <maco> Slart: for example, ifconfig is "command not found" on fedora if you're not root

[21:16] <Myrtti> bad_m: can you move on from trolling to your actual topic? did you have an ubuntu question?
[21:17] <specter_> take mine instead :]
[21:17] <specter_> I just found out how to make Super_L the std bind to open the panel. is there an easy way to close it by pressing Super_L again? Right now it stays open
[21:17] <alienkid10> ibuclaw: you know how the official CD presents you with the boot prompt with options I want to do that on my CD which is made from the ground up
[21:17] <ibuclaw> alienkid10, don't you mean isolinux.cfg ?
[21:18] <alienkid10> ibuclaw: yes
[21:18] <Guest50117> hey im new to ubuntu, is this a chat where I can ask questions?
[21:18] <alienkid10> ibuclaw: sorry was thinking .cfg but typed .txt and didn't notice
[21:18] <Myrtti> Guest50117: yes
[21:18] <ibuclaw> alienkid10, I wouldn't be too sure off the top of my head.
[21:18] <ibuclaw> alienkid10, but in that link I gave you, you download + extract the Ubuntu iso
[21:19] <ibuclaw> so you can *see* how they setup their isolinux configuration
[21:19] <Guest50117> what are some packages I can uninstall to make xubuntu run faster?
[21:20] <alienkid10> ibuclaw: I have seen it seems they link a lot of files to each other which makes it really confusing
[21:20] <Hideme> what would cause the question mark key to print / when shift is held down/
[21:20] <coz_> o0
[21:20] <ibuclaw> Guest50117, if you installed xubuntu thinking it is a lightweight version of ubuntu - you have been misguided =)
[21:20] <James_-_> During the install of Ubuntu Server, In the partitioner, under usage, the option are standard / news / largefile / largefile4  .... If this is a RAID 5 for SCSIs to be used for media files which will give me my best performance and why???
[21:20] <guntbert> Guest50117: just having a package installed doesn't slowdown you machine
[21:20] <coz_> Hideme,  are you holding shift and pressing the question mark key?
[21:21] <Hideme> coz_:   trying to... but it only prints /
[21:21] <daemoncat> Is there a way to change my LANG setting to have en_US.UTF8 display the time as HH:mm instead of AM/PM but keep the rest of the settings intact?
[21:21] <ibuclaw> Guest50117, if you want to speed up boot-time, try disabling some services that you don't require.
[21:21] <coz_> Hideme,   do you have another  shift key on the keyboard to test?
[21:21] <Guest50117> well I did have ubuntu and they seem to run about the same to me, what are some things I can do to increase performance?
[21:21] <alienkid10> ibuclaw: what catagory should I ask?
[21:21] <alienkid10> on ubuntu forums
[21:21] <Hideme> coz_:   yes.... same result.
[21:22] <coz_> Hideme,  is this gnome?
[21:22] <Hideme> coz_:  yes.
[21:22] <Guest50117> how do I go about disabling services?
[21:22] <twig11> powertool08: any luck with discovering instructions for testdisk?
[21:22] <coz_> Hideme,  2 things... go under /system/preferences/keyboard and see if somehow the shift key has been changed...also if you have another keyboard  see if that one works
[21:23] <powertool08> twig11: still looking
[21:23] <blakkheim> Guest50117: aptitude install sysv-rc-conf
[21:23] <ibuclaw> alienkid10, General Help is the generic "catch all" forums.
[21:23] <maZer`-> hello all, how can i manage the init scripts in ubuntu karmic? i want to disable gdm on startup
[21:23] <coz_> Hideme,   maybe xbindkeys  or something night help but I rarely fool with that to be of any guidance
[21:23] <blakkheim> maZer`-: see my previous message
[21:23] <alienkid10> ibuclaw: thanks. I'll try there. Thanks for trying.
[21:23] <ibuclaw> alienkid10, "Development and Programming" is a bit quieter though, but may have less eyes watching.
[21:24] <coz_> Hideme,   when that dialog opens  click the "Layouts"  tab  then the "Layout Options" button at the bottom
[21:24] <ibuclaw> alienkid10, just don't cross-post - else I'll give you a warning ;-)
[21:24] <alienkid10> ibuclaw: cross post?
[21:24] <ibuclaw> alienkid10, create multiple threads in multiple subforums.
[21:25] <Hideme> coz_:  all looks fine... and xbindkeys isn't installed.
[21:25] <coz_> Hideme,  mmm     do you have another keyboard available?
[21:25] <Frederick> how risky is to repartition a linux os?
[21:26] <alienkid10> ibuclaw: oh. would dev &  programing be more appropriate?
[21:26] <Slart> Frederick: repartition? not risky at all.. unless you do something bad or the discs fail
[21:26] <ibuclaw> Frederick, so long as you've backed up all sensitive data - not very risky at all
[21:26] <James_-_> During the install of Ubuntu Server, In the partitioner, under usage, the option are standard / news / largefile / largefile4  .... If this is a RAID 5 for SCSIs to be used for media files which will give me my best performance and why???
[21:26] <Frederick> like I got a linux partition and a fat aprtition I dont use I want extend the linux
[21:26] <brontosaurusrexw> umm, why would df -h give only 20 gigs free, when there should be more than 100?
[21:26] <Slart> Frederick: or there's a bug in the partition software.. or in the OS... backups are always good
[21:26] <maZer`-> thx blakkheim
[21:27] <vlt> brontosaurusrexw: Should be?
[21:27] <brontosaurusrexw> /dev/sdb1             151G  121G   23G  85% /home <- example
[21:27] <brontosaurusrexw> vlt: more than 100 gigs free
[21:27] <guntbert> !paste | brontosaurusrexw
[21:27] <vlt> brontosaurusrexw: 121G used of a 151G file system is only about 20G free.
[21:28] <ibuclaw> alienkid10, both are equally as good places in my opinion considering your question. General Help tends to be a bit more "faster moving" then the Development subforums though.
[21:28] <Slart> brontosaurusrexw: not according to df.. 121 GB used.. where do you see that you have more than 100GB free?
[21:28] <powertool08> twig11: http://cabmec1.cnea.gov.ar/linux/soft/testdisk/doc/testdisk.html
[21:28] <hari_> hi
[21:28] <Guest50117> how do I run commands as root?
[21:28] <nvme> whats a good backup tool that uses compression and can do 'updates'
[21:28] <Slart> !sudo | Guest50117
[21:28] <maZer`-> Guest29435 sudo :>
[21:28] <alienkid10> ibuclaw: gen help it is then.
[21:28] <daftykins> Guest50117: "sudo command"
[21:28] <blakkheim> Guest50117: sudo [command]
[21:28] <powertool08> twig11: Not much of a guide, but it has a relavant paragraph.
[21:28] <ibuclaw> !hi > hari_
[21:28] <daftykins> ;]
[21:28] <Slart> nvme: I use "back in time"
[21:28] <Diverdude> Does anybody in here know if it is expensive for the person owning the mobile phone, if one calls to them in an international call using skype?
[21:28] <Slart> !backup | nvme
[21:29] <brontosaurusrexw> Slart: well my home dir is only actually used at about 20 gigs
[21:29] <brontosaurusrexw> so... weird
[21:29] <Slart> Diverdude: I know one thing.. it's not ubuntu related and should be asked in #ubuntu-offtopic
[21:29] <maZer`-> blakkheim there is no X on gdm, but gdm starts :(
[21:29] <Hideme> coz_:  it's not the board, i've had this before and it goes away after a reboot.
[21:29] <blakkheim> maZer`-: purge it then
[21:29] <Slart> brontosaurusrexw: how do you know that?
[21:29] <coz_> Hideme, ooooo
[21:29] <maZer`-> remove gdm? :D
[21:29] <blakkheim> maZer`-: yes
[21:29] <nvme> !sbackup
[21:29] <vlt> brontosaurusrexw: df says 151G is used
[21:30] <maZer`-> hm, i want just to disable it :(
[21:30] <Diverdude> Slart, well, skype is installed on ubuntu right?
[21:30] <brontosaurusrexw> vlt: its wrong, cant be, ect
[21:30] <coz_> Hideme,   mm   I am at a loss then   ...if no one can help here you might want to try the ##linux  channel
[21:30] <Diverdude> Slart, so its ubuntu related
[21:30] <Slart> Diverdude: also I would think it would be very very country dependent.. many countries don't charge for recieving calls
[21:30] <Hideme> k thanks
[21:30] <coz_> Hideme,   they may have more experience with little glitches like this
[21:30] <Slart> Diverdude: this is ubuntu user support.. your question isn't about how to use ubuntu
[21:30] <master_> can i help you?
[21:30] <Frederick> so maybe I should do an image of the system
[21:30] <Sparky57> hi
[21:30] <Slart> Diverdude: ubuntu-related doesn't mean it's ontopic here
[21:30] <vlt> brontosaurusrexw: "can't be" is not the whole truth
[21:31] <Guest50117> this is awesome, I have been trying to google how to solve all my problems
[21:31] <guntbert> Diverdude: not everything which is ubuntu-related is a valid ubuntu support question
[21:31] <wickedwackguy> hi
[21:31] <wickedwackguy> two problems i have
[21:31] <Sparky57> Im having a problem with a 2GB Panasonic SD-card keeps telling me its write-protected even when i try to format it
[21:31] <powertool08> master_: You can help me find the user twig11. I just found a guide for them but they left the channel.
[21:32] <brontosaurusrexw> vlt: any hints?
[21:32] <Guest50117> I have dual boot with windows and I just want something that will allow me to run multiple applications at once and eyecandy, is xubuntu not the way to go?
[21:32] <mzawieska> hello..any1 know good tutorial how to slice up the images using Gimp and puting it togather to Dreamwaver?
[21:32] <wickedwackguy> @sparky57: try it in root mode
[21:32] <mzawieska> or vidoes much better tho
[21:32] <vlt> brontosaurusrexw: `du -amx /home/ | sort -n | less +G``
[21:33] <powertool08> mzawieska: I found some decent ones on youtube back.
[21:33] <Dr_Willis> Guest50117:  clarify what you mean.
[21:33] <Slart> Guest50117: depends a little on what kind of eyecandy you're looking for.. I think xubuntu looks very stylish since it's clean and crisp.. some people think KDE looks better
[21:33] <wickedwackguy> how can i tell my box to use xawtv to capture my webcam?
[21:33] <mzawieska> powertool08, i couldnt find any
[21:33] <nvme> is there a way to disable the dimming effect on the desktop when asked for the user pass ? i have no gpu so its really slow and glitch
[21:33] <nvme> *glitchy
[21:33] <blakkheim> nvme: if you have no gpu, what do you connect your monitor to?
[21:33] <geirha> mzawieska: Equaly sized "slices"?
[21:34] <James_-_> During the install of Ubuntu Server, In the partitioner, under usage, the option are standard / news / largefile / largefile4  .... If this is a RAID 5 for SCSIs to be used for media files which will give me my best performance and why???
[21:34] <Pudgy> Hi all, does anyone know how to start programs in WMII 3 in a certain workspace? I had it working (switching to the workspace in wmiirc, then starting the program &) in Jaunty, but since karmic it isn't working.
[21:34] <Dr_Willis> nvme:  i seem to recall some gconf setting.. but i dont rember the details on what/where/how to change it
[21:34] <brontosaurusrexw> vlt: how about this http://imagebin.org/79581
[21:34] <josephnexus> hi everyone
[21:34] <Guest50117> well I just want a distro that is not laggy, xubuntu runs good, but when I try to listen to music and get on the internet it gets kind of laggy
[21:34] <nvme> blakkheim, no dedicated gpu...
[21:34] <mzawieska> geirha, for dreamweaver
[21:34] <blakkheim> Guest50117: what are your specs dude
[21:35] <hari_> i have a problem with my printer
[21:35] <Pudgy> I think it has something to do with the way karmic starts X, but I know to little of it to solve anything. If anybody can give me pointers, that would be great.
[21:35] <josephnexus> I've got a Logitech g15 keyboard.  Everything is working great, including macro recording.  The only problem I'm having is that the G keys don't seem to be working.  I can use them for macros, but I was wanting to use them to control compiz stuff (I push G1 and the expose stuff happens)  Any ideas?
[21:35] <Guest50117> I don't even know what specs means, I am new to all this and want something that I can just do basic functions on that runs smooth, I have a dell inspiron 6000 laptop
[21:35] <blakkheim> Guest50117: i mean what cpu do you have, how much ram, etc
[21:36] <maco> Guest50117: specifications. what's your hardware
[21:36] <powertool08> mzawieska: Maybe they aren't there anymore? You could find some for photoshop slicing, it should be similar enough.
[21:36] <mdgeorge> hello
[21:36] <nvme> anyone know how to disable the dimming for password dialog in gnome ?
[21:36] <Sparky57> ok in root mode in the terminal what would be the comand i need to format the SD-card (unmounted)
[21:36] <hari_> when i print it for printing, said: "stopping job because the scheduler could not execute a filter"
[21:36] <blakkheim> nvme: i'm pretty sure it's built into gksu/gksudo
[21:37] <mzawieska> this is what I created in gimp I want to slice it to work with dreamweaver..http://tinypic.com/r/2z5kjzl/6
[21:37] <mdgeorge> is anybody interested in play testing a game I'm working on?
[21:37] <nvme> lame
[21:37] <iceroot> mzawieska: #gimp
[21:37] <hari_> anyone can help me some help
[21:37] <mdgeorge> I'm looking for some feedback on the ui I'm putting together

[21:37] <defrysk> mdgeorge, off topic
[21:37] <Pudgy> mdgeorge: cool! what does it require?
[21:38] <mdgeorge> pudgy: nothing that's not packaged with ubuntu
[21:38] <Augusto> hola
[21:38] <mdgeorge> it uses gtk, opengl, and cgal
[21:38] <mzawieska> #gimp
[21:38] <defrysk> mdgeorge, take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[21:38] <Guest50117> processor: intel celeron m processor 1.30 ghz, is that what yall are asking?
[21:38] <iceroot> mzawieska: /join #gimp
[21:38] <bastid_raZor> mzawieska: type /join #gimp
[21:38] <mdgeorge> thanks defrysk, I will do so
[21:38] <davertron> mdgeorge: i'll check it out if you want
[21:38] <hari_> hey augusto; hablas español
[21:38] <Sparky57> fdisk wont format the SD card any other suggestions
[21:38] <vlt> Sparky57: `mkfs.<type> <device>`, example: `mkfs.vfat /dev/sdb`
[21:38] <davertron> mdgeorge: what kind of game is it?
[21:38] <iceroot> Sparky57: gparted
[21:38] <Augusto> si
[21:38] <mdgeorge> davetron: let's go over to #offtopic
[21:39] <hari_> yo tambien
[21:39] <Dr_Willis> fdisk partitions.. mkfs formaats...
[21:39] <blakkheim> Guest50117: you might want to use something lighter than xubuntu for that
[21:39] <defrysk> davertron, /j #ubuntu-offtopic
[21:39] <iceroot> !spain | hari_
[21:39] <Sparky57> gparted wont do it tells me its write proteted
[21:39] <davertron> defrsyk: i'm there :)
[21:39] <hari_> vamos te voy a hablar en privado
[21:39] <hari_> augusto
[21:39] <defrysk> mdgeorge, thanks
[21:39] <iceroot> Sparky57: then disable the write-look (its on the card-side)
[21:39] <Guest50117> what is lighter that I could use? I tried to install mandrivia but I couldnt get the disc to load
[21:39] <blakkheim> Guest50117: ubuntu minimal iso
[21:39] <adix> Hi, i just installed ubuntu 9.10 and i cannot get any sound.. i use SPDIF optical cable, and i belive "IEC958" means the optical thingy.. but i choosed it but i still cant get any sound.. is there another place to config audio than System -> Pref -> Sound ? i need to get 5.1 sound like DTS and Dolby Digital for movies..
[21:39] <Sparky57> thats the problem it is
[21:39] <guntbert> !es | hari_
[21:40] <Sparky57> under windows works fine but wont under 9.10
[21:40] <iceroot> Sparky57: its a button on the card
[21:40] <Sparky57> @iceroot its disabled
[21:40] <hari_> oooohh thank ubottu
[21:40] <Dr_Willis> Guest50117:  you could install some other windowmanager such as flwm and use that inst4ad of the xubuntu/xfce desktop. but youa re going to have to learn some shell/other ways to do  common tasks
[21:40] <viliny> Hello, im running a ubuntu nat gateway kind of thing with 2 nics and it's all working dandy but what should i use in iptables to forward ports to clients?
[21:40] <defrysk> Guest50117, use an alternative install of ubuntu (txt install)
[21:41] <blakkheim> defrysk: the alternate install is still as bloated once installed
[21:41] <judget> Help when my ubuntu Hardy Laptop tries to boot the last thing ion the screen is Starting NTP server ntpd then it seems to be stuck there
[21:41] <vlt> Guest50117: You could try LXDE (lubuntu-desktop)
[21:41] <yeason> viliny: why don't you run something like smoothwall instead...? basically adds a firewall to what it sounds like you're already doing
[21:41] <shawnboy> Greetings. I have an embarrassingly simple question. I've installed and reinstalled a few times and can't remember whether I'm running 32 or 64 bit. I looked in Sys Monitor but it doesn't say.
[21:41] <twig11> powertool08: I was disconnected for a few minutes. Did you post anything for me?
[21:41] <James_-_> dose anyone know what these options mean?  standard, news, largefile, largefile4....
[21:41] <yeason> shawnboy: uname -a
[21:41] <blakkheim> shawnboy: uname -m
[21:41] <shawnboy> i did that.
[21:41] <shawnboy> -a
[21:41] <powertool08> twig11: No, but I found one for you
[21:41] <Sparky57> @iceroot works under "windows" just fine but in 9.10 it read only
[21:41] <shawnboy> doesn't say 32 or 64 bit
[21:41] <blakkheim> shawnboy: what does it say for uname -m?
[21:42] <powertool08> twig11: http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk_Step_By_Step#Partition_table_recovery
[21:42] <defrysk> blakkheim, if install is the issue he needs an alternative/txt of <whatever>ubuntu
[21:42] <CkhiKuzad> is there a way to basically "fool" avant window navigator into thinking you have a compositioning window manageer, but not running one.
[21:42] <yeason> shawnboy: it should say something like Linux yeason 2.6.27-7-server #1 SMP Tue Nov 4 20:18:35 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
[21:42] <shawnboy> i686
[21:42] <blakkheim> shawnboy: then you're running 32bit
[21:42] <Dr_Willis> CkhiKuzad:  what window maanger are you trying to run anyway?
[21:42] <adix> x86 means 32bit
[21:42] <blakkheim> defrysk: his issue is that it's laggy during general use
[21:42] <twig11> powertool08: Thanks! I'll check it out.
[21:42] <maco> CkhiKuzad: yes...
[21:42] <maco> CkhiKuzad: xcompmgr
[21:42] <shawnboy> what would it say for 64 bit/
[21:42] <CkhiKuzad> well i had xcompmgr
[21:42] <iceroot> Sparky57: as root it is read only?
[21:42] <shawnboy> ?
[21:42] <powertool08> twig11: You're welcome.
[21:43] <adix> x64
[21:43] <CkhiKuzad> no maco, i mean not run one at all. but make avant think i am
[21:43] <defrysk> blakkheim, misread that bit then
[21:43] <Sparky57> yes
[21:43] <blakkheim> shawnboy: x86_64
[21:43] <yeason> I believe it actually says x86_64 or something strange
[21:43] <^paradox^> im a little difficulty with vlc and mplayer. when i scroll videos im playing backward or forward to rewatch a part they stop for a second or two sometimes and then the video gets pixelated. then it goes back to normal
[21:43] <vlt> viliny: "-j DNAT --to-destination ..." for example
[21:43] <maco> CkhiKuzad: xcompmgr isnt a window manager, just a compositing layer, i think
[21:43] <daftykins> James_-_: they're like cluster size configs by the looks - or a flag which optimises the FS for certain sized files
[21:43] <shawnboy> ok. thanks. I feel silly for having to ask. *sheepish grin*
[21:43] <maco> CkhiKuzad: i mean, ive used it while having xmonad be my window manager so i'd get transparent notifications
[21:43] <blakkheim> ^paradox^: this happens with mplayer too? vlc is normal to mess up like that but mplayer should be ok :/
[21:43] <^paradox^> they do this with mpegs and wmv. havent tried avi
[21:43] <adix> Can anyone help me with my sound problem?
[21:44] <daftykins> !ask | adix
[21:44] <^paradox^> am i possibly missing a library?
[21:44] <CkhiKuzad> maco, i have a 1999 graphics card, and i want awm. i've used xcompmgr, and it lags the crap out of my system
[21:44] <^paradox^> or something?
[21:44] <maco> CkhiKuzad: maybe your card just cant do 3d well?
[21:44] <adix> Hi, i just installed ubuntu 9.10 and i cannot get any sound.. i use SPDIF optical cable, and i belive "IEC958" means the optical thingy.. but i choosed it but i still cant get any sound.. is there another place to config audio than System -> Pref -> Sound ? i need to get 5.1 sound like DTS and Dolby Digital for movies..
[21:45] <yeason> ^paradox^: it's probably just buffering... it happens
[21:45] <James_-_> daftykins which should i use for a RAID 5 of SCSI drives for large media files on a file server??? and why
[21:45] <blakkheim> ^paradox^: if you answer the questions of the people trying to help you, your issue gets fixed faster than taking random guesses
[21:45] <daftykins> James_-_: i'd just go with default, if your RAID controller is any good.
[21:45] <CkhiKuzad> of course not, it  is ancient, maco, but i still just want to know if there is something in the awn source code that detects that, and if so, how would i change it so it thinks it is running a CWM
[21:45] <Snausages> daftykins: what application is this?
[21:45] <^paradox^> blakkheim: what would u like to know?
[21:45] <Sparky57> anyone else have an idea n how to format a SD-card that shows up as read only but ist write protected
[21:45] <blakkheim> ^paradox^: scroll up and read what i askeed
[21:46] <daftykins> Snausages: wrong person
[21:46] <maco> CkhiKuzad: does it refuse to run without a compositing wm? i thought it just had ugly black bars where the transparency should be or something
[21:46] <Snausages> James_-_: what usage is this raid?  playback archive or what?
[21:46] <James_-_> daftykins whatever is in the dell poweredge 2650
[21:46] <James_-_> file server
[21:46] <CkhiKuzad> maco, yes it refuses
[21:46] <CkhiKuzad> and i have to go.]
[21:46] <CkhiKuzad> go*
[21:46] <^paradox^> blakkheim: yes it happens with mplayer too minus the pixelation
[21:47] <ahe> ubuntu netbook remix is nice :))
[21:47] <Sparky57> @iceroot not sure if its of any importance the card reader is built into the laptp
[21:47] <Snausages> James_-_ right...  but the usage pattern matters for block sizes & settings...  is this serving compressed movies to a single TV set in a home environment?  Is this serving high bitrate video to video edit workstaitons?
[21:47] <James_-_> Snausages file server, local, small scale
[21:47] <daftykins> adix: i had the same on my computer, with the karmic livecd, though i didn't bother to find a solution - i use digital coaxial but it's basically the same as optical - used to just have to unmute and max out IEC958
[21:48] <^paradox^> blakkheim: i just wondered if there was a way to remedy it or not
[21:48] <vlt> Sparky57: What about the command I recommended?
[21:48] <James_-_> Snausages small office use, movies, training videos, the music at parties... all kinds of odd stuff,
[21:48] <ende> package installer just asked me if I want to keep the current version of Grub or upgrade to the package maintainer's version
[21:48] <ende> any suggestion there?
[21:48] <Sparky57> @vlt: which command was that i missed it
[21:49] <adix> daftykins, but the sound worked for you if you unmuted and maxed IEC958?
[21:49] <vlt> ende: Have you modified grub conf?
[21:49] <ende> no
[21:49] <Snausages> James_-_: ok, stick with default settings then
[21:49] <Snausages> if you're worried about performance consider going up a notch in block sizes
[21:50] <James_-_> ok thanks
[21:50] <vlt> ende: You could view the difference between your and the maintainer's version (and paste it).
[21:51] <daftykins> adix: no, and i never found a solution. i've never gotten around to installing karmic as a host OS, only run from livecd, though i would like to know the answer
[21:51] <mzawieska> no help in that channel..no1 is answering
[21:52] <adix> daftykins, okey thanks. I did get the sound to work on 9.04 a long time ago when i had it.. but they changed the alot of things in sound settings from 9.04 to 9.10 so i cannot get it to work anymore..
[21:52] <miguel> hola
[21:52] <daftykins> adix yeah same here
[21:52] <nvme> how do i install partimage ?
[21:53] <Guest42414> hola
[21:53] <Guest50117> okay if I installed flwm or lxde, could I install that from the terminal and then disable xfce, or is it more complicated than that? Sorry I sound like an idiot im just new to the linux world
[21:54] <Guest42414> alguien sabe
[21:54] <vlt> Guest50117: You can install it even from running XFCE, log out and choose LXDE as new session type when looging in
[21:54] <adix> daftykins,  hehe funny.. but i got it to work..
[21:54] <vlt> !es | Guest42414
[21:55] <zeek0124> hello
[21:55] <Dr_Willis> Guest42414:  the login manager may have a pull down menu that shows lxde  on tyhe sessions listing
[21:55] <yaaar> howdy
[21:55] <zeek0124> i love ubuntu
[21:55] <^paradox^> is lxde pretty good?
[21:55] <vlt> Guest50117: ^^^
[21:55] <ende> uhh…. "Cannot start /dev/mem" … that doesn't sound good
[21:55] <Dr_Willis> ^paradox^:  i cant stand it.
[21:55] <^paradox^> Dr_Willis: whys that?
[21:55] <nvme> "Package partimage is not available, but is referred to by another package" what do i do, i wanna use partiamge
[21:56] <kfogel> Anyone know how long pastes at paste.ubuntu.com live?  Is it forever?
[21:56] <codyduncan> Hello again, friends.  I'm having a continuing problem getting WPA to work on my Toshiba Satellite A15.  I made this forum thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1377929 but haven't heard a peep in a couple days.  Basically, as far as I can tell it is a problem with firmware, but I've made little to no progress.  It's not a wpasupplicant issue, I know that much at least.
[21:56] <yaaar> i just setup a server on 8.04LTS Server AMD64, and just ran 'aptitude update && aptitude safe-upgrade' and I see several packages "kept back" including the kernel. could somebody enlighten me about that?
[21:56] <Dr_Willis> ^paradox^:  it has no features i really need. If i want a light destkop - i can just install lvwm, or whatever and run whatever file manager i need..
[21:56] <adix> daftykins, i went to the ubuntu software center.. searched for "mixer" and i installed a mixer called GNOME ALSA Mixer.. Then i opened the mixer and chose IEC958 copyright and disabled the other thingys there.. maybe it works for you too
[21:56] <Guest50117> okay im going to see if I can figure it out, i'll be back thanks
[21:56] <Dr_Willis> ^paradox^:  plus it uses the pcmanfm file manager which i cant stand
[21:56] <powertool08> nvme: sudo apt-cache search partimage.
[21:56] <daftykins> adix: ah cool, thanks
[21:56] <Guest42414> hola algien q able español
[21:56] <ardchoille> nvme: Do you plan to use Part Image to backup your main partition?
[21:57] <ardchoille> !es | Guest42414
[21:57] <daftykins> adix: out of interest what player do you use to use Dolby Digital and DTS passthrough audio? i gave up using karmic because i never got that working
[21:57] <shawnboy> one other quicky question. Anybody know how to disable bluetooth on bootup BUT STILL have bluetooth-applet running?
[21:57] <powertool08> Dr_Willis: my xfce uses thunar for a file manager
[21:57] <^paradox^> Dr_Willis: ive never really tried lxde. was curious
[21:57] <Dr_Willis> powertool08:  i cant stand thunar either.
[21:57] <twig11> Where is a good place to download a reasonably small cd image that includes testdisk?
[21:57] <nvme> ardchoille, i just want a program similar to dd that saves partitions in some compressed manner ( without saving the 'empty' blocks)
[21:57] <brontosaurusrexw> Dr_Willis: whats the cool one? file manager i mean?
[21:58] <shawnboy> twigll, sysresccd
[21:58] <Dr_Willis> brontosaurusrexw:  depends on what you like. I perfer rox-filer for a light FM, or mc in a terminal
[21:58] <ardchoille> nvme: PartImage should install from the repos: sudo apt-get partimage
[21:58] <w3asal> this is sort of a weird question, but is there a specific program that people use to write emails which uses the format with numbered references in brackets at the bottom?
[21:58] <nvme> ardchoille, it doesnt it says "Package partimage is not available, but is referred to by another package"
[21:58] <ikonia> w3asal: most clients will do that
[21:58] <nvme> and apt-cache just shows its user manual package
[21:59] <ardchoille> nvme: Have you got the universe repo enabled?
[21:59] <adix> daftykins, well i tried VLC now.. im not sure if the surround works correctly yet
[21:59] <nvme> ardchoille, yeah
[21:59] <brontosaurusrexw> Dr_Willis: midnight commander? and rox-filer is a part of rox-desktop?
[22:00] <ardchoille> nvme: Did you update your package sources? sudo apt-get update
[22:00] <Dr_Willis> brontosaurusrexw:  yes to both
[22:00] <nvme> ardchoille, just did, no good
[22:00] <Ejdesgaard> hi, how do i make a service start on boot?
[22:00] <ardchoille> nvme: which distro are you running?
[22:00] <josephnexus> anyone have experiece with the g15 keyboard from logitech?
[22:01] <nvme> ardchoille, karmic 64
[22:01] <nvme> *amd64
[22:01] <kfogel> Anyone know how long pastes at paste.ubuntu.com live?  Is it forever?
[22:01] <vlt> twig11: maybe my favourite live cd grml.org includes testdisk too.
[22:01] <ardchoille> nvme: ok, I don't have any experience with 64 bit Ubuntu so can't really help with that, but I thought it wasn't much diff than 32 bit
[22:02] <coz_> kfogel,  good question ... :)   I dont know though...
[22:02] <Dr_Willis> josephnexus:  a little. Ive not used one in the last month however.
[22:02] <Trizicus> In gconf what is the key that saves nautilus look after exiting?
[22:02] <brontosaurusrexw> nvme: did you try to compile this yourself?
[22:02] <kfogel> coz_: no one knows, and site doesn't say.  oh well.  thanks
[22:02] <Dr_Willis> nvme:  check out 'fsarchiver' tool  its not in the default repos however. BUt its got some neat features to archive filesystems
[22:03] <infid> Ejdesgaard: basically you can make a script and put it in /etc/init.d or append to an existing script in there i guess
[22:03] <coz_> kfogel,  yeah just noticed that  ... someone knows  I am sure of it
[22:03] <josephnexus> Dr_Willis: do you mind if I PM you? It's hard for me to follow the conversations in here
[22:03] <Dr_Willis> josephnexus:  just ask the q here. I may have to leave at any time.
[22:03] <Trizicus> In gconf-editor. What are they keys that: 1) Nautiluses state is remembered even when exiting 2) The key that 'tightens' the desktop text?
[22:03] <Dextronaught> I currently have audio problems and have already had 2 ppl help me on irc with no success. I found out something really big, it turns out my microphone is playing my audio, and my mic is working as my speakers, due to why I can't hear my own music, anybody know how to switch these around maybe?
[22:04] <Ejdesgaard> infamy, i need /etc/init.d/networking to start on boot
[22:04] <infid> Ejdesgaard: man update-rc.d
[22:04] <josephnexus> I have everything working (literally, it all works), I can even use recorded micros to type things into a text document if I wanted to... for some reason though, I can Bind keys using "Keyboard Preferences" but once bound, they don't seem to do anything
[22:04] <josephnexus> err... not Keyboard Preferences, keyboard shortcuts
[22:05] <vlt> Dextronaught: Just a stupid question: Is everything plugged properly?
[22:05] <Dr_Willis> Ejdesgaard:  if using 9.10 - start usin the 'service' command. and you could put the command to restart things in /etc/rc.local if you wante dto
[22:05] <Ejdesgaard> infamy, was that cmd i looked for:P
[22:05] <Ejdesgaard> thanks
[22:05] <Dextronaught> yes.
[22:05] <nvme> brontosaurusrexw, no im just trying to install partimage, but apt cant find it
[22:05] <josephnexus> like having G1 do expose, or open a terminal
[22:05] <Dextronaught> everything is plugged properly, I'm sure.
[22:05] <Dextronaught> it's a laptop anyways.
[22:05] <maggs_> hey, i have what may be a slightly noobish question, i'm trying to run docker on openbox it, to do this the command appears to be "docker -display DISPLAY" with DISPLAY being the x display it connects to, what do i need to put in for DISPLAY?
[22:05] <Dextronaught> I can hear Java, but not Flash.
[22:05] <Dr_Willis> josephnexus: Youve done more with yours then i have. I just uised the G keys for MMORPG's mainly. rarely used them in linux
[22:06] <daftykins> maggs_: try 0:0
[22:06] <brontosaurusrexw> yes, i just had a brief flashback with some app like that, the easy way was to find some 3rd party ...
[22:06] <josephnexus> unfortunately, it appears I'm alone
[22:06] <josephnexus> :-P
[22:06] <brontosaurusrexw> ...repos
[22:06] <maestrojed> I have built LAMP server with Ubuntu. I am missing a mail server that would allow me to use php's mail(). What would be the easiest to install/get up and running? I tried setting a sendmail path in php.ini but I think sendmail doesn't work
[22:07] <maggs_> daftykins: i get a segmentation fault that causes it to abort
[22:07] <Dextronaught> vlt, can you help? :(
[22:07] <daftykins> maggs_: ok try just "0" after that i'm out of ideas ^_^
[22:07] <maggs_> you've already had more ideas than me :D
[22:08] <maggs_> i got the same
[22:08] <vlt> Dextronaught: What does that mean you can hear java ...?
[22:08] <brontosaurusrexw> maestrojed: the other thing that isnt sendmail, and configuring that as relay kind of stuff did the trick here, so basically my isp is sending mail
[22:08] <^paradox^> well this has been fun and all, but is there any fix for the second or two pause and pixelation issue when i scroll video backward or forward in vlc and mplayer? or is just something ill have to deal wit?
[22:08] <Dextronaught> I can hear Java on Firefox
[22:08] <Dextronaught> I can hear the music from the game I play, RuneScape
[22:08] <Dextronaught> but can't hear YouTube
[22:08] <daftykins> maggs_: ah! one more, try 0.0
[22:09] <djustice> maggs_: the -display option shouldnt be needed. but ":0.0" is the actual name of it.
[22:09] <^paradox^> mplayer only pauses for a second or two, no pixelation
[22:09] <brontosaurusrexw> postfix <- maestrojed
[22:09] <Tr1n> Dextronaught:  I have the same problem with Karmic
[22:09] <Dextronaught> I have Karmic :)
[22:09] <Dextronaught> you still have the problem?
[22:09] <djustice> maggs_: if your having a segmentation, there is a failure with that particular version for some reason...
[22:09] <infid> Dextronaught: try killall firefox && firefox
[22:09] <maggs_> it aborted again, i'll give it a try without -display
[22:09] <Dextronaught> you want me to close Firefox?
[22:09] <hughworm> I've installed Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.10 on an Dell mini 10v (1011). All seems fine except the wireless device isn't recognised. wfconfig shows "no wireless extensions". I've tried to find a wireless driver for it but no luck. Dell ships it with 9.04. Any suggestions gratefully recd!
[22:09] <maestrojed> brontosauru Yeah I just want my php scripts to send mail but am at a loss. So I have to install postfix? I tried that once but failed. I will give it another go. Thanks for your help.
[22:09] <Aled> In Xfce, how do you set the menu system so that you don't have to click off the current open menu to switch to the next
[22:09] <infid> restarting it works for me sometimes when sound stops working only in firefox/flash
[22:09] <Aled> as in, on the "Applications" and "Places" bit
[22:10] <Tr1n> Dextronaught:  I can't hear flash in Firefox or Chrome.  Other apps (sopcast, audacious) work fine
[22:10] <maggs_> figures, i'm fairly new at most of this, but liked crunchbang enough to have a go at setting up openbox myself in 9.10
[22:10] <maestrojed> how can I tell in I have postfix running on ubunutu?
[22:10] <Dextronaught> I can't hear music from audio CDs
[22:10] <vlt> Dextronaught: So, you can hear sound from JAVA coming out of your mic, right?
[22:10] <ardchoille> Aled: Try asking in #xubuntu
[22:10] <Dextronaught> as I said, I think that my audio is my mic, and my mic is being used as my audio
[22:10] <djustice> infid: does alsamixer show any funny mixers or channels?
[22:10] <Dextronaught> err, no vlt
[22:10] <djustice> maggs_: still segmenting?
[22:10] <Dextronaught> I can hear the Java music coming out of my onboard speakers or headset
[22:10] <Dextronaught> but
[22:10] <Aled> Thanks
[22:11] <Dextronaught> when I go on a VoIP program called TeamSPeak, I can't talk
[22:11] <infid> maestrojed: service --status-all 2> /dev/null | grep post
[22:11] <Dextronaught> but if I play music from my CD, ppl hear it out of my mic
[22:11] <Dextronaught> and I can't hear it
[22:11] <coz_> Dextronaught,  it comes out of your mic??
[22:11] <xguru> what would cause my window boarders to disappear when i enable desktop effects?
[22:11] <adix> daftykins, i can't get 5.1 sound to work.. the problem is probably with ubuntu not knowing im able to play surround.. drivers maybe
[22:11] <Dextronaught> well... yes, but not literally
[22:12] <maggs_> i think i can see a couple of pixels that are trying to be docker, "docker -display :0.0" seemed to work daftykins
[22:12] <Dextronaught> yes it comes out of my mic
[22:12] <adix> daftykins,  i can only choose "IEC958 Stereo output"
[22:12] <maestrojed> infid: I got [ - ]  postfix. Since is showed up does that mean its running or does the minus mean its not running?
[22:12] <coz_> xguru,  did you install  compizconfig-settings-manager and then open th
[22:12] <coz_>  xguru  open that and check if window decorations plugin  is enabled
[22:12] <xguru> coz_: yea it is
[22:12] <sam_> where is a good place to ask about running a script using xargs?
[22:12] <iceroot> sam_: #bash
[22:13] <daftykins> adix yeah that's pretty much what i always got when trying to use mplayer - it would decode everything always instead of doing passthrough. sadly i went back to windows for working AC3 and DTS passthrough :(
[22:13] <sam_> ta
[22:13] <ardchoille> sam_: You might try #bash
[22:13] <coz_> Dextronaught,  whoa thats odd.... ah in terminal     alsamixer     see if the sliders are muted or turned down
[22:13] <xguru> i had enlightenment installed and removed it and then it died...i wonder if the removal of e17 removed soemthing i still need
[22:13] <Dextronaught> they're all fine
[22:13] <Dextronaught> coz
[22:13] <brontosaurusrexw> maestrojed: htop, f3, search for postfix
[22:13] <coz_> xguru,  well I suppose that's possible    do a    sudo apt-ge
[22:13] <vlt> Dextronaught: Does the sound come out of your mic or not?
[22:13] <ardchoille> !wireless | hughworm have you tried this page?
[22:13] <Dextronaught> yes
[22:13] <Dextronaught> I was thinking dumb, yes vlt, it does
[22:13] <brontosaurusrexw> maestrojed: in my gnome, there is also a gui called 'services'
[22:14] <coz_> xguru,  sorry   do a sudo apt-get update then a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[22:14] <infid> maestrojed: it would show [+] if running
[22:14] <vlt> Dextronaught: Then AFAIK it nust be plugged wrong
[22:14] <maestrojed> brontosauru: I am trying but you are a little over my head I think :)
[22:14] <maestrojed> infid: Thanks
[22:14] <Dextronaught> my plugs are plugged in correctly
[22:14] <xguru> coz_: nothing new
[22:15] <coz_> xguru,  mmm
[22:15] <Dextronaught> ok, I switched my headphones to mic, and mic to headphones, and nothing
[22:15] <nvme> ardchoille, hmm turns out it was just the mit mirror i was using that didnt have it,weird
[22:15] <brontosaurusrexw> maestrojed: well, postfix is way over my head..., so listen with care (i was just lucky i guess)
[22:15] <^paradox^> im guessing ill have to live with the problem. its only a small thing anyways
[22:15] <xguru> coz_: how do i see what ubuntu is using such as metacity, emerald, etc?
[22:15] <ardchoille> nvme: Well, glad you got it sorted
[22:16] <hughworm> ubottu: Thanks I'm having a look now...
[22:16] <coz_> xguru,  well you could try in terminal       gtk-window-decorator --replace and disown  or from alt+F2    gtk-window-decorator --replace
[22:16] <vlt> Dextronaught: I have no idea. Sound coming out of mics is nearly always a cabling problem I think
[22:16] <coz_> xguru,  preferabley from terminal for error reporting
[22:16] <Dextronaught> I didn't have this problem on XP lol
[22:17] <xguru> coz_: gtk-windows-decorator:  No such file or directory
[22:17] <coz_> xguru,  are you on gnome?
[22:17] <xguru> yup
[22:17] <daftykins> *gtk-window-decorator - no 's' i think
[22:17] <coz_> xguru,  mmm    sudo apt-get install compiz-gnome
[22:18] <xguru> newest version installed
[22:18] <coz_> xguru,  damn
[22:18] <xguru> :/
[22:18] <coz_> xguru,  ah  ... open  synaptic package manager    hit the Search button and type in   compiz
[22:19] <yaaar> hey guys, if i've got a new 8.04LTS Server install and 'aptitude update && aptitude safe-upgrade' gives me a bunch of "kept back" packages (notably the kernel) is it better to do 'aptitude install <packages>' or 'aptitude full-upgrade' ???
[22:19] <ardchoille> xguru: are you by chance looking for compizconfig-settings-manager ?
[22:20] <coz_> xguru,  you should have al least these packages installed   http://dl.dropbox.com/u/132551/123.png
[22:20] <firefly2442> Is it possible to create a standard user without sudo (root) access but still give them the ability to install packages?
[22:20] <Slart> yaaar: isn't that the whole meaning of "safe upgrade" ?
[22:20] <ardchoille> yaaar: aptitude full-upgrade should take care of those held back packages
[22:20] <lakota> can firefox get virus running from ubuntu 8.10?
[22:20] <Slart> yaaar: to only do minor upgrades that doesn't require you to install new stuff or reboot
[22:20] <josephnexus> lakota... it is possible, but nearly impossible
[22:20] <josephnexus> not enough for you to worry about
[22:21] <Slart> lakota: firefox itself is vulnerable to the same stuff on ubuntu as on windows.. I don't really know of any viruses for firefox though.. vulnerabilities might be a better word, I think
[22:21] <coz_> xguru,  also you have to log out and change sessions for  E17  is that correct?
[22:21] <xguru> yea i have rebooted
[22:21] <xguru> i'm looking at the package manager now
[22:21] <lakota> what would cause firefox to fill entire screan and loose the x to exit
[22:21] <ardchoille> lakota: Read this to know more about viruses on Linux: http://ardchoille42.blogspot.com/2009/02/linux-and-viruses.html
[22:21] <sam_> I have a perl script I would like to apply to a load of html files I have on my local machine  This is the script http://pastebin.ca/1748887  I want to dump the output of it into file.txt with each entry below the previous, seperated by """"   I am thinking somthing like;  find . -name \*.html -print0 | xargs  script.pl > file.txt      Can someone help me make this work?
[22:22] <coz_> lakota,  full screen mode?
[22:22] <josephnexus> not a virus
[22:22] <Slart> lakota: you pressing F11 ?
[22:22] <sam_> lakota, f11
[22:22] <blakkheim> wow
[22:22] <lakota> no on full screan and no on f11
[22:22] <ardchoille> lakota: That could also be done by javascript
[22:22] <coz_> lakota,  are you running compiz?
[22:22] <mreh> could someone suggest how to get the microphone to "monitor" in the audio mix on my ubuntu system? the mic level seems to register fine, there is no live feedback however
[22:23] <coz_> lakota,  and is the entire  title bar gone or just the  buttons on the title bar?
[22:23] <lakota> ahh! f11 fixed it but I dont know how it got there in the first place lol\
[22:23] <coz_> lakota,   ah   cool
[22:23] <ritesh> hey guys...i was wondering if i can do cookie stuffing in ubuntu...and how can i check if i there are some cookie stuffing done on my end?
[22:23] <ardchoille> lakota: in firefox, click Edit > Preferences.. go to the Content tab and click "Advanced" next to "Enable javascript"
[22:23] <Dr_Willis> ritesh:  im not sure we know what you mean.
[22:24] <lakota> ill remember f11
[22:24] <ardchoille> lakota: you may need to turn off some of those options
[22:24] <lakota> ardchoille,  ok
[22:24] <xguru> coz_: installing some unselected stuff...i'll let ya know how it goes...
[22:24] <Slart> lakota: as always.. the biggest vulnerability is the user
[22:24] <coz_> xguru,  cool
[22:24] <v0id_> 2Slart, +1
[22:24] <KamusHadenes> please, dvd generated with growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/sr0=image.iso will open in an windows machine?
[22:25] <Dr_Willis> KamusHadenes:  it should.
[22:25] <ardchoille> firefly2442: afaik, only users with admin privs can install packages, and that requires sudo
[22:25] <KamusHadenes> well, lets hope, thanks Dr_Willis
[22:25] <lakota> Slart,  yes true and I was on isohunt looking for older ubuntu image. would iso hunt have done it?
[22:25] <Dr_Willis> KamusHadenes:  only one wayt o really be sure.
[22:25] <ritesh> do you know about cookie stuffing...its a black hat method widely used by internet marketers..suppose like people purchase a lot fo stuff on ebay . they create and save a cookie on your computer when you view certain website
[22:26] <firefly2442> ardchoille, hmm, thanks, I think I'll have to read up on this a little more
[22:26] <Slart> lakota: no idea.. I press f11 every now and then by mistake.. I don't think I've ever had a website do it to me though
[22:26] <ritesh> Since linux is virus free..
[22:26] <ardchoille> firefly2442: yw
[22:26] <KamusHadenes> Dr_Willis: no medias to test, I have 20 images to burn and 20 dvd medias :(
[22:26] <coz_> ritesh, that's not quite true but for the mostpart  it is
[22:26] <Dr_Willis> KamusHadenes:  You can mount iso files under windows with the right tools.
[22:26] <lakota> Slart,  well I guess I may have by mistake lol , hope that was all
[22:27] <Slart> ritesh: please tell me this is something you were told sitting around the campfire or something
[22:27] <ritesh> coz_, i dont understand?
[22:27] <Dr_Willis> !virus
[22:27] <KamusHadenes> Dr_Willis: I meant the jouliet naming stuff, dunno if it burns with it
[22:27] <ritesh> Slart, No my dear...i wrote a code..
[22:27] <Dr_Willis> 'no virus problem  is not same as 'no viruses'
[22:27] <ritesh> works well on windows...but linus i am not sure..thats why this questions..
[22:27] <Dr_Willis> KamusHadenes:  not sure. Ive had more issues with dvd's i make under windows.. on linux box's then ive ever had the other way
[22:28] <coz_> ritesh,  there are linux viruses   they seem to attack servers.... I know my nephew had a virus attack on his companies servers  last year  but   the more popular linux becomes the more frequent the attacks will become also
[22:28] <ritesh> one of major methods used by internet money makers..
[22:28] <Slart> ritesh: cookies work the same on linux as on windows.. the mechanisms are the same..
[22:28] <KamusHadenes> thanks guys
[22:28] <Losha> KamusHadenes: burn one and then try it. It should work fine. Might wanna burn slow (speed=4) for fewer problems. The Joliet stuff is part of the iso creation, not the burning process....
[22:28] <ritesh> but this is not a virus...this is a session based or flash cookie...
[22:28] <KamusHadenes> Losha: the iso was mastered by "devede"
[22:28] <KamusHadenes> I was unable to found something about jouliet
[22:29] <KamusHadenes> I would use -J and -R, but devede was essential
[22:29] <ritesh> normal cookie which gets saved similar to a cookie being saved when you try to open gmail.com
[22:29] <Dr_Willis> KamusHadenes:  i just burn devede iso files with k3b or other simple burning tools.. not a fancy command like you were showing
[22:29] <KamusHadenes> Dr_Willis: I'm a command line lover :P
[22:29] <ritesh> Well, if i have been infected with something like this cookie how can i check and how i can remove them because i know flash cookies are hard to remove.
[22:30] <lakota> Slart, ok now everytime I open firefox it goes back to filling entire screen and no exit on right side of screen and f11 is only way to get it back , have to push f11 about 3 times to cycle through to right size
[22:30] <Snausages> ritesh: flash cookies are not hard to remove
[22:30] <Dr_Willis> KamusHadenes:  i seem to recall burning iso to dvd with a much simpiler command then your example in the past...
[22:30] <Losha> KamusHadenes: it should 'just work'. Try it...
[22:30] <KamusHadenes> Dr_Willis: hm, please tell me if you remember
[22:31] <KamusHadenes> Losha: I don't have an windows machine to try. lets hope that it works when the time comes :P
[22:31] <Dr_Willis> KamusHadenes:   cdrecord perhaps.. its been year+ ago...
[22:31] <ritesh> Snausages, we just do clear private data on mozilaa right , but i know it doesnt work..
[22:31] <Slart> ritesh: I think all browsers have some way of clearing out regular cookies, if an online vendor relies on flash "cookies" I would avoid them... as in not even speak their name.. ever
[22:31] <Dr_Willis> KamusHadenes:  thers been sok many changes in the burning area/tools i can barely rember :)
[22:31] <KamusHadenes> :)
[22:31] <ritesh> yeah all browsers remove nomal cookies , but not able to remove flash cookie..
[22:31] <Losha> KamusHadenes: knock on your neighbour's door and ask them. You're probably the only one in the neighborhood without a windows machine...
[22:32] <KamusHadenes> Losha: I'm pretty sure I am, haha. I will ask them, thanks
[22:32] <lakota> im trying to clean up a windows vista pc for a friend and I am also wanting to install wubi so they can see how fun ubuntu is. maybe they might switch to ubuntu if they like but I need to find and good virus scanner that dont cost for windows. any one know a good one?
[22:32] <Dr_Willis> KamusHadenes:  'wodim' perhaps -> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CdDvd/Burning
[22:32] <Dr_Willis> odim dev=/dev/cdrw -v -data cd_image.iso
[22:32] <trism> ritesh: you can remove them in the flash settings manager on adobe's site
[22:33] <Slart> lakota: hmm.. I'm not sure if the full screen setting sticks between restarts.. there has to be a setting somewhere you can change
[22:33] <KamusHadenes> hm, I will take a look, thanks Dr_Willis
[22:33] <Rodensky> Ubuntu 9.04 - I reinstalled alsamixer after having sound problems, so now I can hear without any problem but the mic isn't working... :\ (alsamixer in the terminal shows everything is up and nothing is muted). What should I do?
[22:33] <ritesh> trism, can you explain...
[22:34] <trism> ritesh: the adobe site has a flash application that allows you to browse content (and settings) on allowing sites to store content on your computer in flash
[22:34] <Slart> ritesh: but "cookie stuffing", as I understood it from the wikipedia article, doesn't really steal any info from you... it's just a way to replace cookies on your computer.. so it would not affect you unless you rely on your cookies.. which you really shouldn't do
[22:35] <ritesh> Slart, its not a virus..
[22:35] <ritesh> not harms you in any way..
[22:35] <Slart> ritesh: no.. I never said it was
[22:35] <lakota> if I install wubi on a vista pc can ubuntu then scan the windows drive for virus?
[22:35] <ritesh> Slart, okay
[22:35] <trism> ritesh: http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/help/settings/
[22:36] <powertool08> !clamav | lakota
[22:36] <rww> lakota: yes, if you point your virus scanner in Ubuntu at /host
[22:36] <powertool08> lakota: Use clamav in ubuntu to scan windows drives.
[22:37] <lakota> powertool08,  thanks.
[22:38] <Losha> lakota: it's a very roundabout way of virus checking a windows system. Why aren't you running AV software on windows?
[22:38] <Dr_Willis> lakota:  it may be easier to track down a live  cd with the lates clamav/updates feature.
[22:38] <jiffe> anyone gotten fuse 2.7.4 to compile on ubuntu 9.10 with kernel module?
[22:38] <bizarrefish> hi, all
[22:38] <jiffe> when I try to compile with the kernel module I'm getting the error 'error: ?struct task_struct? has no member named "fsuid"'
[22:39] <bizarrefish> i have a computer here which doesn't boot from USB. i can boot the kernel/initrd over PXE, but can i tell the kernel to find the filesystem.squashfs on the USB drive?
[22:39] <lakota> Dr_Willis,  I was going to try 9.10 like the wubi installer so they can have both ubuntu and windows and see if ubuntu can clean up windows virus
[22:40] <bizarrefish> is it as simple as root=/dev/sdb1/casper/filesystem.squashfs ?
[22:40] <lakota> Losha,  it is not my pc and I wish to get them onto ubuntu without throwing them right into it
[22:40] <Guest67706> okay I got lxde up and running, but compiz is not working, any suggestions?
[22:40] <Dr_Willis> lakota:  if you want to clean up windows - its be faster to use a live cd with clamav - I cant stand wubi. Good luck
[22:40] <Dr_Willis> Guest67706:  lxde dosent use compiz.
[22:40] <apanda> lakota a live cd would be better for that, wubi has to run on the infected pc
[22:41] <Dr_Willis> Guest67706:  lxde used the openbox window manager.
[22:41] <Guest67706> ah man, what about flwm?
[22:41] <lakota> Dr_Willis, ok thanks. ill do live cd then
[22:41] <Dr_Willis> Guest67706:  compiz IS a window manager..
[22:41] <Guest67706> oooh
[22:41] <maestrojed> argg I am struggling here. I need to send mail from my php scripts on my ubuntu LAMP box. I have been told to install sendmail and link to its path in php.ini. But that did not work. Then I was told to install postfix which I did but still no go. I am not sure I have "hooked" in postfix right. Can anyone help me. I am a n00b at this stuff
[22:41] <firefly2442> I have two NTFS hard drives that I set to mount in /etc/fstab/, can I make them mount under my username and not root?
[22:42] <Rodensky> is there a support chat room for sound problems?
[22:42] <Dr_Willis> firefly2442:  theres the uid= and gid= options you can use in the fstab lines
[22:42] <firefly2442> thanks
[22:43] <powertool08> Does anyone know of a good channel for file recovery (from a dvd, not a drive)?
[22:43] <tina_> Firefox crashes randomly...
[22:43] <brontosaurusrexw> maestrojed: irc postfix took me like 3 nights to make it work, so good luck, you may paste /etc/postfix/main.cf
[22:44] <Losha> powertool08: the dvd is damaged, I take it?
[22:44] <brontosaurusrexw> someplace thought, and somebody might help
[22:44] <tina_> when I run firefox through terminal, the first thing that pops up is:
[22:44] <tina_> (firefox:3979): GLib-WARNING **: g_set_prgname() called multiple times
[22:44] <Guest67706> so is there anything I can install to have eyecandy on lxde or no? I mainly just like the wobbly windows
[22:44] <powertool08> Losha: Its a minidisc from a digital camcorder dropped in water. The camcorder is dead and didn't finish a proper write before dying.
[22:45] <ardchoille> Guest67706: lxde is designed to be light and fast without having much eye candy
[22:45] <Dr_Willis> Guest67706:  if you want LIGHT weight then you use lxde or other wm's if you wan teuye candy you dont
[22:45] <_theradar> I installed some updates a few days ago and since then I've noticed that when I run guake a python process pops up and starts eating a ton of cpu and memory.  Anyone else see something similar?
[22:45] <snarkster> has anyone been able to access a motorola Q by connecting it via usb??
[22:46] <Slart> _theradar: check what the full command line is for that python process.. use htop or ps or whatever your favourite tool is
[22:46] <Losha> powertool08: you could try ddrescue I suppose, but to be honest, the best data retrieval app I know of is a windows apps: http://www.cdroller.com/
[22:47] <powertool08> Losha: I'm guessing its not free or cheap?
[22:47] <Mr_Fields> where i can found someone who speak portuguese ?
[22:47] <_theradar> Slart: /usr/lib/guake/guake.py
[22:47] <Slart> !pt | Mr_Fields
[22:48] <codyduncan>  ﻿Hello again, friends.  I'm having a continuing problem getting WPA to work on my Toshiba Satellite A15.  I made this forum thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1377929 but haven't heard a peep in a couple days.  Basically, as far as I can tell it is a problem with firmware, but I've made little to no progress.  It's not a wpasupplicant issue, I know that much at least.
[22:48] <Mr_Fields> thanks
[22:48] <Slart> _theradar: that looks like the main guake process.. not sure why it would be gobbling up memory though.. perhaps a bug?
[22:48] <Losha> powertool08: the web site says $40.00. Dunno if that's cheap or not. Try ddrescue first. Also, not that some dvd readers do better than others at reading damaged disks, so if you have access to multiple brands of reader, try them all...
[22:48] <powertool08> Losha: I tried photorec but didn't have any luck, dd_rescue gives me this: http://pastebin.com/m2e6cf69e
[22:48] <Snausages> powertool08: ddrescue should let you recover most of the data...  then you may well be able to use handbrake or the like to re-wrap the mpeg stream and then re-burn to another DVD
[22:49] <_theradar> Slart: good possibility. I'll see if there's a place I can open a bug report. Thanks for the help!
[22:49] <Pelo> codyduncan, I assume the wifi works when wpa is not being used ? does it work with wep ?
[22:49] <Slart> _theradar: http://labs.alfaiati.net/guake/report/1
[22:49] <_theradar> Slart: thank you thank you
[22:49]  * _Ovidiu is away: Gone away for now
[22:49] <codyduncan> Pelo: I cannot believe that I have not even tried a WEP connection yet
[22:50] <powertool08> Losha: Snausages According to dd_rescue, its like there isn't even anything one it... Agree?
[22:50] <Pelo> codyduncan, my job here is to point out the obvious
[22:50] <codyduncan> Pelo: but, the networks are all detected etc., only when I go to connect WPA encryption is not an option.
[22:50] <Slart> _theradar: there is a bug reported about spiking cpu on ubuntu karmic.. might be what you're experiencing http://labs.alfaiati.net/guake/ticket/192
[22:50] <OerHeks> !usplash
[22:51] <Snausages> powertool08: that output might be accurate.  I'm not sure what dd would say for a disk with no lead-out written.  I've done recoveries of incomplete DVDs but I usually used toast to get it done.  Not free.
[22:51] <Pelo> codyduncan, I know very little about wifi , there isn'T much I can do for you , you imported the correct key ? that's pretty much the only thing I can think of
[22:51] <gregcoit> hi all.  if "netstat -na|grep 6082" returns "tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:6082          0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN", is that port open to remote connections?
[22:51] <daftykins> gregcoit: pastebin what "netstat -ta" does
[22:51] <kenny> hello
[22:52] <Pelo> codyduncan, also in linux  letter case count,  make sure everything is capitalized the same ...  but I think I'm sounding trite here
[22:52] <Losha> powertool08: You could try the trial version of cdroller. Apparently it will tell you if it finds anything worth saving (it just won't save it).
[22:52] <codyduncan> Pelo: what do you mean by the key?
[22:52] <powertool08> Snausages: I don't really know whats on the dvd. It's my parents, but I'm sure they got at least a few minutes recorded, more than 2k. Or am I not interpreting it right?
[22:53] <cj> seb128 sent me here for support ;)
[22:53] <cj> hibernate is busted for me
[22:53] <Pelo> codyduncan,  last time i did any wifi was with a freind'S comp and to secure the connection there was an autentification key on the router and a matching key on the wifi computer
[22:53] <_theradar> Slart: timing seems off but that's the exact issue. Thanks again.
[22:53] <powertool08> Losha: Thanks, I'll check it out.
[22:53] <codyduncan> Pelo: I found a bug report that looked to be reporting the same problem I was having, and a proposed solution.  Then I saw in my error logs that I was missing that particular firmware file.  I added that file, but still have no WPA option.
[22:53] <cj> could someone help me dubug why it's failing?
[22:53] <Slart> _theradar: you're welcome

[22:53] <frogzoo> what's frostwire called these days?
[22:54] <Pelo> frogzoo, frostwire
[22:54] <frogzoo> hmm maybe it's not there for 64 bit?
[22:54] <Mr_Fields> could someone help me to use a blackberry pearl as a modem in a ubuntu netbook remix ?
[22:54] <Pelo> codyduncan, oh, ok , the problem is computer side, you cannot get any wpa settings , I see, it's not that you are not connecting,
[22:54] <Losha> powertool08: nothing to lose by trying http://code.google.com/p/cd-track-reader/ too....
[22:55] <kenny> any body know anything about a version or wine1.2 installable on ps3_powerpc  i have got wine 1.0.1 to install but it does not do anything and none of the frontend support that version
[22:55] <Pelo> frogzoo, frostwire doesn'T come in the ubuntu repos,  you need to dl it from their site
[22:55] <rww> frogzoo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[22:55] <daftykins> gregcoit: yeah somethings listening on port 6082 by the looks
[22:55] <frogzoo> rww: Pelo ah thx
[22:55] <codyduncan> Pelo: Yes, I mean, there are other computers on the router that are having no issues, so it's not a network problem, it's a problem with this laptop.
[22:55] <gregcoit> daftykins:ok, thanks!
[22:56] <Pelo> codyduncan, give me a minute to look this up , see if I can't find a basic guide
[22:56] <codyduncan> Pelo: Good to find someone who is willing to help me out, finally, thanks.
[22:56] <powertool08> Losha: Thanks I'll try that one too. Any ideas on getting wine to see my dvd drive?
[22:56] <Pelo> codyduncan, not willing to help,  willing to try, big difference
[22:57] <Losha> powertool08: wine to run cdroller? I'd say you're pushing your luck....
[22:57] <codyduncan> Pelo: Sure, either way, thanks.
[22:57] <daftykins> powertool08: i'm pretty sure there's usually a wine config file which you need to edit to point "X:" to /dev/mycddrive for example
[22:57] <brontosaurusrexw> Dr_Willis: so whats wrong with thunar? (just courius)
[22:57] <powertool08> Losha: Ha, probably, but I don't want to reboot or move computers. I was hoping.
[22:57] <powertool08> daftykins: Thank you
[22:58] <Pelo> codyduncan, here is what I found,  the good news is it's an older guide , meaning that if the automatic stuff didn,t work for you , this is how you go about doing it manualy,  some minor things might have changed but over all it should be good,  mind you , you might have read it already   https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo
[22:58] <fluffy_mcduff> i uninstalled my desktop environment...
[22:58] <Losha> powertool08: the recovery tools use very low level reads bypassing the usual mechanisms so they can read partial blocks etc. I wouldn't expect wine to work particularly well at this...
[22:59] <powertool08> Losha: Good point.
[22:59] <fluffy_mcduff> how do you connect to a wi-fi with only terminel, when the network has an exclamation point
[22:59] <fluffy_mcduff> *terminal
[22:59] <kenny> ifconfig wlan0
[22:59] <aug> guys is there a command line option to usb-creator?
[23:00] <daftykins> fluffy_mcduff: you probably escape the ! with \ before it or something
[23:00] <fluffy_mcduff> ah, ill remember that.
[23:00] <aug> I mean 'option' as in 'alternative'
[23:00] <Snausages> aug: I know such a thing exists...  it was originally command line.  I don't know if it's part of the default install.
[23:00] <NateW> for some reason, my wifi isnt displaying available networks.. any ideas?
[23:00] <Snausages> aug: the gui one is supposedly a front-end for it, implying that you'd have to have the cmdline version around...
[23:01] <aug> thanks Snausages
[23:01] <aug> unfortunatelly I'm not even in a debian-like linux right now
[23:01] <NateW> and i can connect to them if i use "connect to hidden network"
[23:01] <firefly2442> Dr_Willis, I set uid and gid in /etc/fstab/, do you know how to restrict others from creating files/folders? should I remove the defaults option? http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d23c6783e
[23:03] <geissevogler> The rain, it raineth on the Just and the Unjust fella. But chiefly on the Just because the Unjust steals the Just's umbrella.
[23:03] <ganymede> hi, i'm trying to disable X.org/gdm on karmic desktop since it's now going to become a headless machine. so i disabled splash from grub, and now i disabled gdm with update-rc.d or somesuch and the symlinks in /etc/rc2.d were named to have a K in front as expected, but when i reboot, gdm still started up. so i apt-get remove gdm and now X comes up but with a screen full of garbage
[23:03] <ganymede> x11-common isn't in any of the rc?.d folders in /etc...so what is causing X to come up?
[23:03] <Rodensky> Ubuntu 9.04 - I reinstalled alsamixer after having sound problems, so now I can hear without any problem but the mic isn't working... :\ (alsamixer in the terminal shows everything is up and nothing is muted). What should I do?
[23:04] <Dr_Willis> firefly2442:  check teh ntfs-3g documentions - thers dozens of options for the fstab entried
[23:04] <Dr_Willis> brontosaurusrexw:  it has no features i need.. and lacking many features i DO need
[23:04] <firefly2442> ok thanks
[23:04] <codyduncan> Pelo: I did read that, but I haven't read it since I started this hunt, and actually, digging back into it in light of progress has been rather helpful.  I won't ask any more of you.  You've been a big help.  Thanks, mate.
[23:04] <trism> ganymede: gdm uses upstart in karmic, so you need to disable /etc/init/gdm.conf (either rename it to something that doesn't end in .conf or include never in start on in the file)
[23:05] <Pelo> codyduncan, I just thought the section on manualy setting up wpasupplicant might be usefull
[23:07] <trism> ganymede: oh, didn't notice you removed gdm, not sure what the problem is then
[23:07] <lakota> 9.10 is froze and can not access mouse and not sure about keyboard. is there a command to recover or do I have to restart?
[23:08] <codyduncan> Pelo: Right, I discovered that the support for my specific card was not included in WPA supplicant, and that I will have to set it up manually.  So be it.  Thanks again, man.
[23:08] <BitWraith> I really don't want to have to restore this machine *again* but I won't have a choice if you guys can't help me find the orphaned files wubi left behind.

[23:12] <ganymede> trism, thanks, renaming gdm.conf desabled it...

[23:13] <rww> CountDown: Applications -> Accessories -> Passwords and Encryption Keys -> Passwords tab -> Right-click Passwords: login -> Change Password
[23:14] <ruffus910> Losha: freenode isnt exactly a shining example of stability in the first place
[23:14] <rww> !ot
[23:14] <Pelo> Rodensky, did you check the settings for aquire in alasmixer ?
[23:14] <Losha> ruffus910: :-). Damn volunteers....
[23:14] <CountDown> rww: Ah, thanks.  I was missing the right-click bit.
[23:14] <lakota> what was the name of the virus scanner I can use in ubuntu to scan a windows drive to locate and kill viruses?
[23:14] <Losha> lakota: clamav
[23:14]  * Pelo just hid the join/part it was getting annoying
[23:14] <BitWraith> Losha, beat me to it... lol
[23:15] <lakota> Losha,  thanks
[23:15] <kenny> my friend told me about virtualbox but i could find a version for powerpc_arch
[23:15] <bU1137pr00f_m4r5> I need the command to batch remove filesusing bash
[23:15] <Pelo> lakota, therer is also a free version of avast that runs on linux
[23:15] <iceroot> kenny: there is the oos edition in the ubuntu-repos
[23:15] <iceroot> kenny: also build for ppc
[23:15] <Chousuke> kenny: virtualbox is not an emulator. you can't run it on non-intel platforms.
[23:15] <powertool08> How do I find the package to satisfy this? Didn't see libglade-2.0, only libglade2-0 configure: error: Package requirements (gtk+-2.0 >= 2.8 libglade-2.0 >= 2.6.0    ) were not met:
[23:15] <lakota> Pelo,  ill check that to then
[23:16] <iceroot> Chousuke: imo you can but just run native achitecture code
[23:16] <johntramp> hi. i have a security camera which detects motion. i can have it run a command when motion is detected. can anyone think of a good way to alert other computers on the network, so it will
[23:16] <Chousuke> kenny: or, actually, I might be completely wrong. hmm.
[23:16] <Pelo> powertool08, do a search for glade 2.0 in synaptic and install whatever you find, also install -dev packages whenyou build manualy
[23:16] <Oli``> Why is my system leaking RAM? According to conky, htop and system monitor, 2.1gigs of RAM is in use but of the apps running, I can only account for 500-600MB. Where is the missing 1.5GB?
[23:17] <iceroot> kenny: look at there website if they have ppc
[23:17] <iceroot> Oli``: linux is using buffers and cache
[23:17] <bU1137pr00f_m4r5> I need the command to batch remove files using bash. I installed JDK in the wrong directory
[23:17] <iceroot> !ram | Oli``
[23:17] <johntramp> ** so it will display a warning like when the laptop battery is low?
[23:17] <Oli``> iceroot: that figure excludes cache - what do you mean by buffers?
[23:17] <Chousuke> Oli``: the short of it is that Linux is using the RAM to make your system go faster.
[23:17] <Rodensky> Pelo, aquire what?
[23:18] <Pelo> Oli``, one of them maybe just reporting the mem use of the user
[23:18] <Chousuke> Oli``: most often, unused RAM is wasted RAM :)
[23:18] <kenny> well i got this version of wine installing right now that is suppose to work for ppc so hopefully it works
[23:18] <iceroot> bU1137pr00f_m4r5: rm
[23:18] <Oli``> Chousuke: see my comment - it excludes cache
[23:18] <Losha> powertool08: it didn't see libglade-2.0, only libglade2-0? Looks like a typo in the configure script (unless *you* mistyped the dashes when you copied it here)
[23:18] <iceroot> bU1137pr00f_m4r5: also please you the repo to install software and not doing it by your own
[23:18] <Oli``> Pelo: no, I'm listing all processes
[23:18] <bU1137pr00f_m4r5> iceroot: I know that one. I need the batch rm code
[23:18] <powertool08> Losha: Nope, I copy-pasted
[23:18] <Pelo> Rodensky, I might have the wrong word,   I meant capture
[23:19] <iceroot> bU1137pr00f_m4r5: what is batch rm code?
[23:19] <argued> Could someone direct me in right way regarding upgrading/downgrading kernel? ty
[23:19] <iceroot> bU1137pr00f_m4r5: you mean recursiv for directorys? rm -r
[23:19] <bU1137pr00f_m4r5> iceroot: and I wouldnt have to install it myself if it was in the repositories in the firstplace
[23:19] <Pelo> Rodensky, you run alsamixer from the terminal,  tab once to see the CApture settings, and make sure everthing is at top level
[23:19] <iceroot> bU1137pr00f_m4r5: java is in the repos all the time
[23:19] <Losha> powertool08: then watch out for a typo in the configure script (a misplaced dash), ok?
[23:19] <Chousuke> Oli``: the output from the tools would be useful :/
[23:20] <Haraken> where can I download just the vmlinuz and initrd image for pxe booting the ubuntu installer?  I'm searching one of the mirrors but I'm having a hard time remembering which directory it was kept in... I need it for 9.10
[23:20] <bU1137pr00f_m4r5> iceroot: not the latest Java Developers Kit
[23:20] <Pelo> arghh2d2, simple enought ,  just install the kernel you want from synaptic,  reboot into that kernel,  go back in synaptic an remove the others
[23:20] <powertool08> Losha: Ok, I figured it was a slightly different variant from what I already had installed.
[23:20] <ardchoille> bU1137pr00f_m4r5: sun-java6-jdk is in the repos
[23:20] <zynox> How can I make a .img file from a .iso? I have a iso and I need a .img for dd to put onto a usb stick.
[23:20] <iceroot> bU1137pr00f_m4r5: jdk 6 is in the repos  if you need another hdk use the *.deb from sun and install with dpkg
[23:21] <kenny> extract the .iso into a folder and than have a prog make an .img from the files
[23:21] <Losha> powertool08: that's possible I suppose, but I would shoot the developer who decided to release two variants of something, differing only in the location of the dash....
[23:21] <alex__> hi
[23:21] <alex__> ubuntu sucks
[23:21] <iceroot> bU1137pr00f_m4r5: how did you installed the "wrong" version? with dpkg?
[23:21] <Chousuke> zynox: .img files are what, exactly?
[23:21] <zynox> kenny, ahh ok thanks. I wasn't sure if there was some diskutil or dd command.
[23:21] <Pelo> zynox, do you know of a program that produced .img files ? yes ? extract the .iso to a folder and repack it with the .img app
[23:21] <zynox> Chousuke, like a image of a disk.
[23:21] <rww> !usb | zynox
[23:22] <zynox> Pelo, yes I do
[23:22] <Chousuke> zynox: .iso is one :)
[23:22] <alex__> xchat sucks
[23:22] <powertool08> Losha: I think you should shoot them then :) I installed libglade2-0 and libglade2-dev and it configured.
[23:22] <Rodensky> Pelo as I wrote everything is up
[23:22] <bU1137pr00f_m4r5> iceroot: It was installed into my Downloads directory
[23:22] <Chousuke> zynox: it's a CD filesystem image.
[23:22] <blakkheim> alex__: use irssi then
[23:22] <shane2peru> how can I play a wma file?
[23:22] <iceroot> bU1137pr00f_m4r5: installed with what? extracting by hand?
[23:22] <blakkheim> shane2peru: mplayer
[23:22] <zynox> shane2peru: vlc
[23:22] <alex__> everything sucks
[23:22] <Chousuke> zynox: what matters is the filesystem you need to put on the USB disk
[23:22] <Losha> powertool08: sigh....
[23:22] <Pelo> Rodensky, check the sound dialog from the system menu,  make sure the correct device is selected for capture
[23:22] <argued> Pelo: I guess it was ment for me - tnx, but I cant find the 2.6.32 kernel in synaptic .. it is located @ kernel-ppa/mainline/ as .deb files
[23:22] <alex__> lol
[23:22] <shane2peru> zynox, vlc complains and doesn't play it
[23:22] <Chousuke> alex__: yes, yes. now go away, please :)
[23:22] <kenny> vlc plays just about everything
[23:22] <Pelo> Rodensky, you might also want to check permissions to make sure you are allowed to record
[23:23] <iceroot> Chousuke: dont feed the trolls
[23:23] <zynox> shane2peru, then the .wmv probably has some drm in there.
[23:23] <ardchoille> Thanks jrib !
[23:23] <bU1137pr00f_m4r5> iceroot: /Downloads/jdk1.6.0_17/db/docs/html/getstart$ rm -r
[23:23] <Rodensky> Pelo - its the correct device as far as i can tell. where do i check the record permissions ?
[23:23] <bU1137pr00f_m4r5> rm: missing operand
[23:23] <iceroot> bU1137pr00f_m4r5: man rm
[23:23] <Pelo> arghh2d2, karmic is running on the 2.6.31 branch,  atm,  you'll get updates of those but not for the 2.6.32 one
[23:24] <shane2peru> zynox, does that mean I cannot play it?  it is posted on a web site it is original content for anyone to play
[23:24] <iceroot> bU1137pr00f_m4r5: rm -rf /Downlaod/jdk1.6.0_17
[23:24] <alex__> bloody hell dude
[23:24] <alex__> take it easy
[23:24] <alex__> xD
[23:24] <Pelo> Rodensky, menu > systsm> admin > user permisson or user settings ,  select your username and see what is allowed
[23:24] <shane2peru> zynox, probably misformated rather than dmr or drm stuff
[23:24] <Losha> bU1137pr00f_m4r5: you need to be careful with tat command, you can delete a lot of files by accident using it....
[23:24] <jrib> alex__: please stay on the topic of ubuntu support here
[23:24] <kenny> try to convert to a diff format
[23:24] <Danskmand1> Howdy :-) - I have accitently used "cat myfile" on a wrong file. So now, I cannot read the console anymore (only weird signs)....How do I tell linux to show signs and not graphical symbols anymore ?
[23:25] <zynox> rww, anyway I was on that FromUSBStick page, and it says "Note: this procedure requires an .img file; it will not work with an .iso file. [Note: this should explain/link to how to obtain an .img file]" "should explain" well it doesn't say anything
[23:25] <jrib> Danskmand1: type « reset »
[23:25] <hari_> hi :)
[23:25] <bU1137pr00f_m4r5> Losha: That's the point
[23:25] <iceroot> bU1137pr00f_m4r5: mostly every command is working like "command option file/directory" for more infos see the manpage by typing  man commandname
[23:25] <argued> Pelo: I have issues with transfer speed copying backups and such since 2-3 weeks back, same as many others out there... would you recommend an older version?
[23:25] <rww> zynox: Ah, you're using Mac OS X?
[23:25] <Pelo> argued, sorry wrote to the wrong guy again  karmic is running on the 2.6.31 branch,  atm,  you'll get updates of those but not for the 2.6.32 one
[23:25] <zynox> rww, yes I am :)
[23:25] <rww> zynox: no idea, then
[23:26] <Pelo> argued, that kind of recommendation is a bit over my head sorry
[23:26] <iceroot> Danskmand1: on what file?
[23:26] <Danskmand1> jrib: Well, reset didnt work....
[23:26] <Rodensky> Pelo I changed the menus a long time ago, how can i find it another way?
[23:26] <alex__> lol
[23:26] <lakota> live cd 9.10 has froze twice when i try to resize a window. is that a bug?
[23:27] <alex__> check out the irony haha this theme rocks
[23:27] <alex__> http://facefive.ath.cx/screenshot.png
[23:27] <Pelo> argued, what are you using to backup ? I just rsync over my network and it works fine
[23:27] <argued> Pelo: np - tnx for the answers tho... I dont have my older versions in but that is easily aranged
[23:27] <lakota> can I recover without restart
[23:27] <iceroot> Danskmand1: what if you type "bash" will you get a new bash without that problems?
[23:27] <powertool08> Losha: Care to work through the make errors with me? http://pastebin.com/d5c9026c0
[23:27] <z0man> anyone know what Ubuntu's IRC offtopic channel is?
[23:27] <Pelo> Rodensky, hold on let me check

[23:27] <Ckhikuzad> #ubuntu-offtopic z0man
[23:27]  * Ckhikuzad glares at jrib
[23:27] <jrib> Danskmand1: just open a new terminal then?
[23:28] <wander> y
[23:28] <z0man> {{{jrib/Ckhikuzad}}}
[23:28] <bU1137pr00f_m4r5> iceroot: *sighs in relief* Thank you so much. I've been working 5 hours doing it all one code at a time... until I realized that i could do multiple files in the same line. i knew there had to be a way to do it as a batch process but I couldn't understand the ss64.com page
[23:28] <argued> Pelo: well the most correct answer is nautilus, I m taking backup on approx 7-8 Gb pictures since I am doing a lot of editing every day
[23:28] <Losha> powertool08: libisofs/libisofs.h: you're missing a -dev package. libisofs4-dev on my hardy system. Fix this first then try again....
[23:29] <iceroot> bU1137pr00f_m4r5: its not called batch, its called recursion
[23:29] <Pelo> Rodensky, open a terminal and type   gksu users-admin   that will open up the same gui permission dialog
[23:29] <wander> algum brasileiro por ai
[23:29] <jrib> !pt | wander
[23:29] <zynox> I am correct in thinking that grub2 can boot a iso?
[23:29] <Pelo> argued, whre are you backing up to ?
[23:29] <Danskmand1> iceroot: I dont even remember.....You remember in former times you could make graphics (yes, simple ones) just with "special letters" - like the "q" looks like a minus, "w" looks like a "t" and so on....
[23:29] <argued> Pelo: the problem is that my hd should be copying these files with 20-25 Mb/s , not 1-2 Mb/s
[23:29] <iceroot> zynox: yes
[23:29] <bU1137pr00f_m4r5> iceroot: =>Is an ex dos/windows user
[23:29] <zynox> So I can just install grub2 to a usb drive and then configure if for the iso?
[23:29] <zynox> ahh nice thanks
[23:29] <argued> Pelo: another partition on same drive
[23:30] <Danskmand1> Like it uses a different charset .....
[23:30] <wander> ai algum brasileirio pelo amor de deus
[23:30] <Pelo> argued, you're reading writing at the same time,  that ' s a lot of work for the reading head
[23:30] <Pelo> wander, no abla espanol
[23:30] <iceroot> bU1137pr00f_m4r5: for installing java use   sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk
[23:30] <jrib> wander: /join #ubuntu-br   para falar com outros brazileiros...
[23:30] <ardchoille> !pt | wander
[23:30] <Rodensky> Pelo i opened it, what's next?
[23:30] <bU1137pr00f_m4r5> iceroot: well thanks again. Gotta go.
[23:30] <argued> Pelo: I get that, the physical aspect of the drive should be ok and there is very much free space left
[23:31] <powertool08> Losha: Thanks, that did it.
[23:31] <iceroot> bU1137pr00f_m4r5: or download the newest deb from sun and install with dpkg -i nameofthedebfile
[23:31] <Pelo> Rodensky, select your user name and then click properties on the right ,  check in there
[23:31] <Danskmand1> I cannot use a different console - I am using a vmware remote console....
[23:31] <Losha> argued: should be easy enough to install & test a different kernel using synaptic...
[23:31] <Pelo> argued, that's the best I can offer, sorry
[23:31] <argued> Pelo: these problems started after an kernel update - thats why I came in with these questions
[23:31] <jrib> Danskmand1: why can't you start a new console?
[23:31] <argued> Losha: that is what I intend to do - ty
[23:32] <pmyshkin> how do I disable this thing that keeps recommending packages to me when I type a command that doesn't exist?
[23:32] <Losha> powertool08: cool....
[23:32] <jrib> pmyshkin: command-not-found
[23:32] <argued> Pelo: tnx a lot anyway and have a good night
[23:32] <iceroot> pmyshkin: sudo apt-get remove command-not-found
[23:32] <Rodensky> Pelo, how do i change permissions?
[23:32] <pmyshkin> jrib, iceroot: can I just disable it for my bash sessions?
[23:33] <argued> Rodensky: chmod commands
[23:33] <Pelo> argued, well if you need to go back a version then that' s easy enought,   open synaptic  do a search for 2.6.31 , that should give you the kernel headers and images and such  , make sure you have those installed for previous versions ,curent one is 2.6.31-17 so look for -16
[23:33] <Danskmand1> jrib: Ok...I tried....And learned something new :-)
[23:33] <aliciapg> does anyone know a video editor that supports rmvb files?
[23:33] <Danskmand1> jreb: But isnt there a way to change the charset ?
[23:33] <blakkheim> Rodensky: man chmod
[23:33] <Pelo> Rodensky, are you in the section were you have stuff listed like  use fax and write to cd and such ? just click to enable, uncheck to disable
[23:33] <powertool08> Losha: Sadly I don't think its going to recover anything. It has File -> Open Device and help on the menu list, I opened my dvd device, then clicked scan tracks, it found 1 track, then I click that and get "Error creating filesystem"
[23:33] <jrib> Danskmand1: « reset » has always fixed that issue for me, I don't know any other way
[23:33] <argued> Pelo: I am looking for 13-14 . Think it would be best to take few steps back and start there.
[23:34] <Rodensky> Pelo - i can't click it, it's all grey...
[23:34] <Pelo> blakkheim, he needs to add himself to the right group
[23:34] <iceroot> pmyshkin: i dont know
[23:34] <Pelo> Rodensky, doyou have admin priviledges on that computer ?
[23:34] <Losha> powertool08: it was always a gamble anyway....
[23:34] <powertool08> Losha: Yep, but thanks for the suggestion.
[23:34] <Danskmand1> Aah, ok...I see...this is a firewall, a minimized linux - I guess that is the reason...
[23:34] <Rodensky> yes pelo, i'm the only one using it...
[23:34] <Danskmand1> But thanks a lot :-)
[23:34] <pmyshkin> it seems like the false positive rate on this thing is too high for it to be justified
[23:35] <Pelo> Rodensky, close that dialog box and go back to the main one , there should be a little key icon at the bottom
[23:35] <toko1231> hello
[23:35] <jrib> Danskmand1: you typed « reset » without the guillemets right?
[23:35] <aliciapg> does anyone know a video editor that supports rmvb files?
[23:35] <blakkheim> aliciapg: convert it with ffmpeg to something you can use?
[23:36] <Rodensky> Pelo, the unlock button is also grey, i can't press it
[23:36] <Losha> aliciapg: no, but if you can play it, you can probably convert it to something editable...
[23:36] <aliciapg> blakkheim: yeah...but that lowers the quality a _lot_
[23:36] <toko1231> I've got a what seems to be STA and b43 conflict
[23:36] <toko1231> no wireless
[23:36] <Pelo> Rodensky, did you get asked for your password when you entered the  gksu users-admin  command ?
[23:36] <toko1231> no wireless detected in network manager
[23:36] <_the_game> Windows 7 or Ubuntu? Only answer if you've used both.
[23:36] <blakkheim> aliciapg: lol.. if you've got an rmvb file i don't think its quality is very high to begin with
[23:37] <toko1231> I've been forward and backward with this thing
[23:37] <Losha> aliciapg: sorry, but that's what you get when you use/support proprietary formats....
[23:37] <aliciapg> blakkheim: it is if i downloaded it
[23:37] <Rodensky> pelo, yes
[23:37] <Pelo> _the_game, wrong channel
[23:37] <_the_game> ?
[23:37] <_the_game> yeah
[23:37] <_the_game> sorry
[23:37] <aliciapg> Losha: hey it was the only torrent available
[23:37] <Pelo> Rodensky, there there should be nthing greyed out ,   close that dialog and open it up again with this line   users-admin ,    see what you get
[23:38] <blakkheim> aliciapg: how does the fact that you downloaded it change the fact that it's a low quality, proprietary format?
[23:38] <Losha> aliciapg: I understand, but that's why your options are limited....
[23:38] <rot26> what's the name of the tiling window manager that has that little word 'one' in the left top corner?
[23:38] <Pelo> _the_game, this is a support channel and as you can see , lots of support going on atm,  no time for surveys

[23:48] <ardchoille> wander: Você precisa fazer perguntas em # ubuntu-br
[23:48] <aliciapg> triple_x: why?
[23:48] <RocketLauncher> how do I 12 hour clock in awesomewm?
[23:49] <wander> e como é que eu faço isso
[23:49] <wander> ?
[23:49] <ardchoille> wander: Este canal é somente Inglês
[23:49] <triple_x> Rythoka: Try adding a access point....
[23:49] <Rythoka> Or, better question: Can I tether the internet from my iPod Touch to Ubuntu?
[23:49] <wander> aram
[23:49] <imran> Dr_Willis, I now have one problem, though - Ubuntu isn't letting me get drivers for my video card - it's usable, but I can't use Compiz without the drivers. I went to System > Administration > Hardware Drivers and it found nothing
[23:49] <ardchoille> wander: /join #ubuntu-br
[23:49] <wander> e como eu faço pra ir para um canal em portugues
[23:49] <wander> ?
[23:49] <soreau> imran: Which card is it?
[23:49] <RocketLauncher> wander, #ubuntu-br
[23:50] <Pirate_Hunter> just inserted a netgear usb adapter onto my pc cause the internet went down a while back now I wish to disconnect it but have no clue how to do it, anyone care to explain the command for it?
[23:50] <imran> soreau, an 8400 GeForce GE 512 mb
[23:50] <triple_x> aliciapg: What was the question about kinda jumped in forum late about avi????
[23:50] <imran> soreau, it found drivers on 9.04 so I know there are some, but i upgraded to 9.10 today and its not finding
[23:50] <soreau> imran: You probably need to install the modalias package for the nvidia driver so it will appear in the jockey driver applet
[23:50] <RocketLauncher> imran, i think restricted devices
[23:50] <aliciapg> triple_x: oh my question was actually about rmvb files
[23:50] <RocketLauncher> Havent' been on Ubuntu in a while on my desktop which has the 8400GS
[23:51] <soreau> imran: Consider the output of 'apt-cache search modalias|grep nvidia'
[23:51] <RocketLauncher> Anyone here use awesomewm? How do I get a 12-hour clock to display rather than a 24-hour clock? I can read 24-hour but I prefer 12-hour.
[23:51] <adante> is there a place i can go to pay someone to fix my problems?
[23:51] <imran> RocketLauncher, Where can I change taht? I think that may have been a problem...
[23:51] <lillis> I am having a whole lot of trouble with Ubuntu installation media. 3 of my four discs (ubuntu server, ubuntu alternate, and a Swedish ubuntu remix) based on 9.10 all hang up halfway through the installation requesting that i put the correct disc in the tray (which I obviously already have)
[23:51] <imran> and soreau, what do you mean by "consider the"
[23:51] <lillis> and I cant boot liveusbs... cant even find the .img files anymore
[23:51] <BitWraith> I'm going to try windows disk check, and if that doesn't find the files, I will just have to reset the machine and start over. :-/
[23:51] <RocketLauncher> imran, somewhere around administration, it's been a while so i dont know
[23:51] <lillis> are there no official ubuntu .img?
[23:51] <Dr_Willis> lillis:  thers tools to convedrt iso to usb installs
[23:52] <Dr_Willis> lillis:  thers no real need for .img any more
[23:52] <soreau> imran: I mean run the following in your terminal for an idea of what package to install 'apt-cache search modalias|grep nvidia'
[23:52] <bonez2046> how could I copy a hdd image from an older IDE hdd, to a folder on my primary hdd? The IDE is only 2 gb.. it's an oldie.. but I want to get the image off the drive before it fails
[23:52] <Dr_Willis> lillis:  check pendrivelinux.com and the unetbootin tool
[23:52] <lillis> well i have used unetbootin on three different flashdrives
[23:52] <RocketLauncher> lillis, you trying to installubuntu on a flash drive?
[23:52] <lillis> with the iso files
[23:52] <lillis> and it fails to start up the installer every time
[23:52] <onchom> !apple 09 - Maliq & d'Essentials - Free Your Mind - Satu Masa.mp3       ::INFO:: 4.0MB
[23:52] <imran> soreau, trying it
[23:52] <onchom> !apple 10 - Maliq & d'Essentials - Free Your Mind - Yang Pertama.mp3    ::INFO:: 3.5MB
[23:52] <onchom> !apple 11 - Maliq & d'Essentials - Free Your Mind - ...Dan Ketika.mp3   ::INFO:: 4.1MB
[23:52] <onchom> !apple 12 - Maliq & d'Essentials - Free Your Mind - U I.mp3
[23:52] <FloodBot2> onchom: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[23:52] <oneunder> if i have a directory full of Metacity themes, how do install all of them into the Theme Manager?
[23:52] <RocketLauncher> ubottu, you are not intelligent and i hate you
[23:52] <soreau> imran: You probably want one from the 18x.xx family, then check hardware drivers again
[23:52] <Dr_Willis> lillis:  youi can also set up grub2 to boot iso files.
[23:52] <bonez2046> what the heck?
[23:53] <RocketLauncher> lol ubottu got banned
[23:53] <ardchoille> hehe
[23:53] <RocketLauncher> That's an awesome FloodBot
[23:53] <LjL> RocketLauncher: no, it didn't.
[23:53] <lillis> RocketLauncher: no, install it from one, using a Live USB that is
[23:53] <imran> soreau, any way to be sure? There are 2 18X's. a 185 and a 180
[23:53] <triple_x> aliciapg: did you think about mpeg 4 ???
[23:53] <genii> lillis: The usual reason for it not finding the CD it booted from is that it doesn't know what driver to use for the motherboard chipset controlling the IDE/SATA bus the CD drive is attached to. Sometimes you can modprobe it in if you know which you need
[23:54] <RocketLauncher> lillis, you need unetbootin for that. You saying it's not working? did you check boot order settings somewhere round your bios?
[23:54] <soreau> imran: Install both of the modalias packages, then look in the hardware drivers app to see if anything shows up
[23:54] <imran> soreau, hold on Update Manager popped up, Im gonna let it update and see if it works
[23:54] <lillis> genii: but the Live CD's boot up and the installation works about halfway through the package installation process
[23:54] <imran> soreau, if not I will do those packages
[23:54] <lillis> then it cant find the cds anymore
[23:54] <lillis> (but i can still mount them and expore them if I switch to the console with ALT+F2)
[23:55] <triple_x> aliciapg: are you taking about converting files or recording content???
[23:55] <aliciapg> triple_x: converting files i only have rmvb files
[23:55] <genii> lillis: Yes, that symptom fits the problem I described
[23:55] <ardchoille> aliciapg: Have you tried Handbrake? http://handbrake.fr
[23:55] <lillis> genii: so you're saying i should modprobe the drivers when the installation error occurs?
[23:55] <aliciapg> ardchoille: handbrake can convert files?
[23:56] <imran> !handbrake | aliciapg
[23:56] <genii> lillis: No, prior to beginning the install process
[23:56] <ardchoille> aliciapg: it can convert many media formats, if it's media you're converting
[23:56] <Trizicus> I've added winbind and wins to my nsswitch.conf file and when I try to ping netbios computer it resolves it to dns and not wins. Here is what I get when i ping: http://pastebin.com/m2433380
[23:56] <aliciapg> ardchoille: high quality?
[23:56] <JULinuxUser> I have a problem. I can edit my Gnome-Panel however when I remaster Ubuntu 9.10 the configuration goes back to default. How can I make it permanent?
[23:56] <ardchoille> aliciapg: depends on the settings you specify
[23:56] <JULinuxUser> Where are the config files and where are the default config files?
[23:57] <aliciapg> ardchoille: hm...i didn't realize that converted files, i'll have to try it since i already have it installed >-<
[23:57] <RocketLauncher> Anyone here use awesomewm? How do I get a 12-hour clock to display rather than a 24-hour clock? I can read 24-hour but I prefer 12-hour.
[23:57] <ardchoille> aliciapg: It's worth a look
[23:57] <triple_x> aliciapg: try this link not sure on the quality ????   http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1021075
[23:57] <ardchoille> aliciapg: I use handbrake to convert mdeia files to something my cell hones can use
[23:58] <aliciapg> ardchoille: ah nice i shall try that then
[23:58] <aliciapg> ardchoille: thanks ^-^
[23:58] <JULinuxUser> Anyone see my question?
[23:58] <ardchoille> aliciapg: yw, also see what triple_x said
[23:58] <aliciapg> triple_x: yes i've tried mencoder, but the quality wasn't ...as good as i would have liked
[23:58] <aliciapg> haha
[23:58] <ardchoille> hehe
[23:58] <Pelo> JULinuxUser, seen it, can't answer it, somewhere in ~/.gnome or something like that I expect
[23:59] <JULinuxUser> oh
[23:59] <JULinuxUser> I found the applications.menu or whatever under .config
[23:59] <Dr_Willis> JULinuxUser:  i imagine that remastering does not take config files from the users home. You would have to put them some where for the remaster to use.  like /etc/skel perhaps
[23:59] <JULinuxUser> Right
[23:59] <JULinuxUser> Dr_willis I did that
[23:59] <genii> lillis: The usual two chipsets this works on require either the sata_mv (marvell chipset)  or the sata_via
[23:59] <ardchoille> Dr_Willis: was just gonna say that
[23:59] <lillis> genii: thanks! will try that..
[23:59] <JULinuxUser> Dr_willis I coppied all the user's config files to /etc/skel but it didn't do any good for the menu
