| ardchoille | asdff: It seems that installing kubuntu-desktop messed up the fonts | 00:17 |

| DrunkenIrony | I'm sporting 64 bit ubuntu 9.10 and have run across an interesting issue. At random times flash will quit working and all flash apps are such are solid white. Rebooting fixes this, but its not a desirable solution. Any ideas? | 00:17 |
| cxo | etfb, yeah, these are some of the subtle things that start flame wars. Gnome's philosophy is all about work flow and ergonomics. KDE is more "Do what i tell you to do" | 00:17 |

| hiexpo | ya thats the prob i am having is keeping the terminal open | 00:42 |
| triple_xxx | andrew9: Thanks again was just sitting picking up on tricks and tips.. That might have saved me so money... ;) | 00:42 |
| r6 | Out_Cold: as long as you change the port and use rotating keys as only auth, you should be ok | 00:42 |
| triple_xxx | got to run room work calls | 00:42 |
| r6 | maybe port knocking too | 00:42 |
| Out_Cold | rotating keys?? and i kinda need port 22 cuz work locks a lot of the others | 00:42 |
| r6 | what kind of auth mechanism you use? | 00:43 |
| DasEi | rahduke: soory, put my volume down, yes | 00:43 |
| Out_Cold | rsa key | 00:43 |
| hiexpo | i ve got it down to a 3 minute run for wep trying to save typing time lol | 00:44 |
| rahduke | DasEi: I just ran fsck on a drive with 1 bad sector.... I used fsck.ext3 -p .... It ran for a while then at the end i got this message | 00:44 |
| rahduke | (07:28:58 PM) rahduke: Data: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY. | 00:44 |
| rahduke | DasEi: thanks for getting abck to me | 00:44 |
| andrew9 | Does anyone know a good irc channel for Android users? | 00:44 |
| rahduke | andrew9: what kinda info u looking for? | 00:45 |
| DasEi | rahduke: bad sector ?? oo, thats a hardware failure, not filesystem then, anyway , mount to verify drive is still no mounted | 00:45 |
| rahduke | drive is working | 00:45 |
| andrew9 | a general info chat | 00:45 |
| DasEi | rahduke: sudo fsck /dev/sdX | 00:46 |
| r6 | passphrase it, with maybe a portion of the lyrics of a song you hear wen you generate it, and do the same every one or two months, that is key rotation | 00:46 |

| hibliss | irc.torrentleech.org:7011 | 00:46 |
| andrew9 | Why NVIDIA drivers have never ever worked with geforce 2 go on any linux distro? | 00:47 |
| Out_Cold | r6, well i don't keep any passphrases just because they are locked on my laptop and always in my possession but the rotations i can keep up with | 00:47 |
| rahduke | DasEi: its going to give me an error asking if i want to overwrite or something.... should I chose yes or no | 00:47 |
| lenswipe | hey guys | 00:48 |
| lenswipe | i want home dirs to be created with 700 perms | 00:48 |
| andrew9 | Hey | 00:48 |
| lenswipe | how do i set that? | 00:48 |
| DasEi | rahduke: important data ? | 00:48 |
| lenswipe | so i dont have to chmod every time | 00:48 |
| r6 | Out_Cold, well all depends on level of paranoia i guess, besides passphrases make it easier to work if you are hoping a lot | 00:48 |
| rahduke | andrew9: if u have an htc phone u should hop on the xda forum | 00:48 |
| kcj1993 | join #ubuntu-offtopic | 00:48 |
| DasEi | lenswipe: man chmod, R option | 00:48 |
| xihh1 | hi there | 00:49 |
| lenswipe | DasEi: i know how to chmod thanks | 00:49 |
| andrew9 | Hi | 00:49 |
| lenswipe | how do i set the default value of home directories to 700? | 00:49 |
| powertoo108 | lenswipe: You're looking for a create umask, I don't know where to set it though. | 00:49 |
| rahduke | andrew9: there is a ton of android info out there on the web, depending on what your looking for there are many different sites.. if your looking for hacked roms u wanna check out xda and alldroid and androidspin | 00:49 |
| lenswipe | ok | 00:49 |
| Out_Cold | r6, well all my true data is locked on a sub-server which is past my regular server and highly encrypted and almost always unmounted | 00:49 |
| DasEi | rahduke: there is always a slim chance fsck messes things up, very important dat I would clone an image before that | 00:50 |
| usser | lenswipe, /etc/profile | 00:50 |
| rahduke | DasEi: ummm im already running fsck, couldnt u have told me that before | 00:50 |
| lenswipe | usser: thanks | 00:50 |
| usser | lenswipe, you can set a umask there but it will be applied system-wide not just for home directories | 00:50 |
| lenswipe | ah. | 00:51 |
| lenswipe | someone told me to edit /etc/profiles | 00:51 |
| lenswipe | is that right? | 00:51 |
| xihh1 | I have a question, im using a wireless access point to make wireless avaliable to all the computers here, on debian (and another laptop) i got it working by using pppoeconf, but in ubuntu it can't use the network (it does detect it), what should i do? | 00:51 |
| DasEi | rahduke: slim chance as said, its also in | 00:51 |
| DasEi | !fsck | 00:51 |
| ubottu | fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 00:51 |
| r6 | Out_Cold: that's a fair level of protection, AFAICT. I do more or less the same, but use passphrases as i do a lot of jumps inside the servers and agent forwarding really helps for that | 00:52 |
| lenswipe | ah | 00:52 |
| andrew9 | Man.. I've tried so many distros: ubuntu, fedora, opensuse, slax, puppy, crunchbang.. and can't get my graphics card working with NVIDIA drivers.. that's mad | 00:52 |
| lenswipe | usser: nvm, it was you | 00:52 |
| powertoo108 | lenswipe: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=649965 | 00:52 |
| usser | lenswipe, heh | 00:52 |
| rahduke | andrew9: the nvidia drivers on ubuntu work great, and they support VDPAU | 00:52 |
| Out_Cold | r6, agent forwarding??? i'm still highly in the learning process.... can barely get my iptables right | 00:52 |
| powertoo108 | lenswipe: The question itself isn't relevant, seems they did what you want, then wanted an exception. | 00:52 |
| Wind0pain | does anyone here use a web-based document management system ? i need to be able to check in/check out docs, nothing fancy. | 00:53 |
| andrew9 | I bet geforce 2 go will never work again.. | 00:53 |
| rahduke | DasEi: earlier when i ran fsck i got a short read error and it asked me if I wanted to overwrite.... what should I do when that happens again? | 00:54 |
| gkahla | anyone know how to tell gstreamer to only write id3v2 tags to music files? | 00:54 |
| usser | Wind0pain, subversion | 00:54 |
| NotTooSmart | andrew9: tried getting a card that is not 100 years old... sorry..... | 00:54 |
| Out_Cold | Wind0pain, what's wrong with ftp? | 00:54 |
| marc__ | in fstab, does that make sense for a new HD I add in my computer that will be used to store video and mp3? /dev/sdb1 /media/storage1 ext4 defaults,user,noatime,nodiratime 0 2 | 00:54 |
| gkahla | Out_Cold- ftp isn't a "document management system" | 00:55 |
| iflema | andrew9 go, go 200 or go 100? | 00:55 |
| DasEi | rahduke: as said, fsck corrects (and alters) filesystem errors. mostly that works (yes), but if you want to be very sure, need to make a backup when not running preen options | 00:55 |
| kinja-sheep | Wind0pain: There are many web-based document management system. Google Docs for starters. (Nice if you have your own domain for Google apps) | 00:55 |
| Losha | rahduke: a short read is a bad sign. Make a backup of anything essential that's on that disk. And consider buying a new disk | 00:55 |
| NotTooSmart | marc__: i think it should work | 00:55 |
| rahduke | yes its a nightmare | 00:55 |

| === powertoo108 is now known as powertool08 | ||
| DasEi | rahduke: size of drive ? | 00:56 |
| NotTooSmart | marc__: i keep hearing that..... | 00:56 |
| kcj1993 | Anyone know what program I need to combine .partXX.rar files? | 00:56 |
| rahduke | DasEi: do u think the process of moving 400gigs of data from one drive to another 1.5tb will actually cause more issues than just using the drive till it breaks? | 00:56 |
| marc__ | NotTooSmart, ... yeah, sorry, that wasn't really original :P | 00:56 |
| andrew9 | I have tried absolutely every supported driver | 00:56 |
| NotTooSmart | marc__: here is a trick though. try it and see if it works since it's not going to do any damage lol | 00:56 |
| r6 | Out_Cold: when you protect a key with a passphrase no one (for example if someone gets at your laptop and steals the key) can use it unless he/she knows the pp. BUT you would end up as with passwords, having to enter the pp whenever you use the key. The ssh agent is a daemon that keeps your key and passphrase in RAM, and handles auth automatically. Agent forwarding allows to "chain" the same process as you jump from host to host, assuming the | 00:57 |
| bastid_raZor | kcj1993: you should be able to untar the .rar and it will automatically untar them all creating the final .avi or what ever it holds | 00:57 |
| Matisse | I got an iso-file, but mounting doesn't work, because I dont know the correct filesystem type. How do I find it out? (And if mount knows that its wrong, why can't it try every type by its own?) | 00:57 |
| Out_Cold | kcj1993, you should be able to run .part.rar file and it combines by itself (use nautilus and right click) | 00:58 |

| rahduke | DasEi: the broken drive is 400 gigs, and almost filled to the brim... | 00:58 |
| Losha | rahduke: personally, I would copy the data a.s.a.p and use the suspect disk only as scratch space from now on... | 00:58 |
| rahduke | im just htinking copying all that stuff off the drive will just exacerbate the problem | 00:58 |
| frostbite7 | can anyone help me find and onstall the elements plug in? | 00:58 |
| r6 | iow, you have to enter the pp only one time, and in gnome zero times, as seahorse daemon unlocks keys when you open your session | 00:58 |
| DasEi | rahduke: very important data should be backed up, mostly fsck causes no harm, if you want to know health of drive, there is smartmontools | 00:58 |
| blakkheim | kcj1993: unrar x file.part1.rar, the rest will fall into place. no need to waste time with a gui | 00:59 |
| kcj1993 | I got it, thanks | 00:59 |
| kcj1993 | :) | 00:59 |

| marc__ | NotTooSmart, I'm wondering... it says 'noatime' : Do not update inode access times on the filesystem. ... but I think I saw somewhere that a directory is really a file with a directory flag. so do I really need to add the nodiratime option? | 00:59 |
| Matisse | I got an iso-file, but mounting doesn't work, because I dont know the correct filesystem type. How do I find it out? (And if mount knows that its wrong, why can't it try every type by its own?) | 00:59 |

| Out_Cold | r6 i think i will add that after i finish current security demands. thanks for the info | 01:00 |
| NotTooSmart | marc__: well im using ext4 for what you said and I dont use noatime, so its really your option, either way works.... | 01:00 |
| rahduke | kinja-sheep: before i just got a new 1.5tb drive a few weeks ago i would literally fill it till it wouldnt write anymore then delete a bunch of old crap | 01:00 |
| andrew9 | The absolute must-have tool for repair and recovery is Hiren's boot cd | 01:00 |
| ja660k | is the a cmd which will return null if there i have no connection on an interface eth0 or wlan0 etc? | 01:01 |
| kinja-sheep | rahduke: It is. Best to shut down. Take out the hard drive. Wait until you get the new one so you can attempt to rescue all or what is left of it. | 01:01 |
| Dash_ | Greetings and salivations, I have a couple of minor questions: 1. When trying to start a particular program (If you need specifics I can supply it) it gives an error /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6: version 'glibc_2.8' Not found. Okay. I can overcome some issues, but how do I compile/install GLIBC_2.8? Where do I find the source code or the binary? | 01:01 |
| andrew9 | I have tried every supported driver | 01:01 |
| rahduke | kinja-sheep: i already have the new drive.... what im thinking is copying 400gigs of data off of the suspect drive will put the final nail in its coffin.... | 01:01 |
| Dash_ | 2. <disregard> | 01:01 |
| NotTooSmart | andrew9: = troll ? | 01:01 |
| DasEi | rahduke: so answer yes to fsck and dont interrupt it | 01:02 |
| andrew9 | Nope | 01:02 |
| Out_Cold | andrew9, i agree... but any casper system can be just as useful in the right hands | 01:02 |
| rahduke | kinja-sheep: not to mention putting undue wear and tear on my new drive | 01:02 |
| kinja-sheep | rahduke: Maybe. You never know. Hard drives are the most slow and instable part out of all computer components. | 01:02 |
| Losha | rahduke: depends on which statistic you're looking at. Most modern drives have already tried and failed to reallocate the sector by the time they report a read failure. Most times one sector failure signals the beginning of the end for the drive. I agree with kinja-sheep: take it out and do a one time copy when you get a new drive. Then use the old one as temp space... | 01:02 |

| flootenkerp | Hi, I'm not clear on how to upgrade my firefox to 3.5.7. Could someone tell me how? | 01:07 |
| Losha | rahduke: yes. You've really got no choice about this. If you run without correcting the errors you risk a corrupted filesystem and consequent data loss anyway, so you can't win... | 01:07 |
| rahduke | Dr_Willis: i think its to late | 01:07 |
| Wind0pain | Out_Cold: i want something with a checkin/checkout feature... ftp offers that? | 01:07 |
| rahduke | im just gunna hold down Y is that smart? | 01:07 |
| rahduke | uh oh | 01:07 |
| Dr_Willis | flootenkerp: You could get teh latest tar.gz from the firefox omepage and just 'exctract/use' it for a specific user.. or track down some updated firefox repos (the ppa repos proberly have it) | 01:07 |
| rahduke | Unattached inode 6938640 | 01:07 |
| rahduke | Connect to /lost+found<y>? yes | 01:07 |
| rahduke | No room in lost+found directory. Expand<y>? yes | 01:07 |
| rahduke | did i just really screw up? | 01:08 |
| Dr_Willis | flootenkerp: personally i wouldent worry about upgrading firefox unless you hae a very good reason to need the newest | 01:08 |
| Dr_Willis | rahduke: proberly not. hard to tell | 01:08 |
| Out_Cold | Wind0pain, someone suggested subversion.. i know that has checkins | 01:08 |
| flootenkerp | I heard it was faster | 01:08 |
| Losha | rahduke: if it's just a few questions, be patient and type yes when it prompts. If it gets into the hundreds, you can quit the fsck and re-run it with -y, but quitting an fsck half way through is a risky thing to do in the first place. It told you, you can't win at this... | 01:08 |
| flootenkerp | Why? Is there something wrong with the beta? | 01:08 |
| Dr_Willis | flootenkerp: if you want faster - check out google chrome. | 01:08 |
| Wind0pain | Out_Cold: yep, reading about it... looks like maybe a good way to go for me | 01:09 |
| flootenkerp | I did | 01:09 |
| flootenkerp | Videos run like crap for me | 01:09 |
| flootenkerp | Firefox runs them amazing for me | 01:09 |

| rahduke | what do you guys make of this | 01:09 |

| rahduke | yes | 01:13 |
| Dr_Willis | flootenkerp: upgraded? it should just run the version you ran.. not upgrade the system. Unless youi used the term upgrade wrongly. | 01:13 |

| soreau | woeisme: Does it make a difference if you disable desktop effects? | 01:29 |
| Dr_Willis | woeisme: that can be a compiz issue. many people have that issue at times | 01:30 |
| Dr_Willis | http://www.webupd8.org/2009/11/fix-mouse-clicks-not-working-in-flash.html | 01:30 |
| woeisme | Desktop effects are disabled. The "export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1" trick worked on 32-bit. | 01:31 |
| Dr_Willis | some users reported that the bug with mouse clicks not working in Flash & Ubuntu was fixed by either disabling Compiz or just by disabling the show desktop plugin in Compiz. | 01:31 |
| soreau | Dr_Willis: FWIW, it's not a compiz issue, it's a flash issue. If it were a compiz issue, it would have already been fixed | 01:31 |

| F2231 | ty | 01:33 |
| soreau | F223: In the Command field | 01:33 |
| soreau | ugh | 01:33 |

| soreau | woeisme: If I really want to watch a video, let it download then play it with your favorite player from /tmp/Flash* | 01:34 |
| Dr_Willis | F2231: Emerald is basically a dead project. It may be time to say bye to emerald. | 01:34 |

| soreau | woeisme: Well flash isn't super important to me so I never really mess with it. I just let it d/l to /tmp and play it with mplayer from there | 01:36 |
| woeisme | soreau: Won't go off topic after this, but it's hard to ignore the fact that all these issues about bugginess and performance with Flash is due to Adobe's awesome closed-source, stubborn mindset. | 01:37 |

| soreau | woeisme: Well at least you know the truth about flash. Most people automatically blame compiz like so many other issues that compiz happens to expose | 01:38 |
| Schui | hi, i just installed ubuntu 9.10 on my laptop, but i use verizon access manager with wireless card. problem is that the cd is only for windows / mac. i tried it in wine and it works except to where it needs to detect the wireless device. | 01:39 |
| Schui | plz help? | 01:39 |
| soreau | Schui: Did you google the device model number with keyword ubuntu or look on the manufacturers site if the device has one? You might need to configure a driver for it | 01:39 |
| Schui | nope, will try that now thx | 01:40 |
| soreau | Schui: You should definitely not try to use it through wine though, that installer is for windows only. Linux typically has driver included in the kernel already if the device is support4ed | 01:40 |
| hiexpo | jamie i seen that set i think at gnome.look .org | 01:40 |
| jamie | Thanks, hiexpo. I'll definitely check there. | 01:41 |

| hiexpo | yah thats it | 01:42 |
| jamie | Alright, also, I used to know how to change the Icon closest to applications , the "start" button if you will. It's something through nautilus | 01:43 |
| hiexpo | what do you mean change it ? | 01:43 |
| hiexpo | move it | 01:44 |

| tyranos | i think he means icons beside text or no icons and just text ! | 01:44 |
| jamie | Icons beside the applications menu. | 01:44 |

| TrekCaptainUSA | dark: is X still not running properly, or does it run on 9.04? | 02:04 |

| dark | TrekCaptainUSA, it runs on 9.04. graphical interface doesn't run on 9.10 | 02:04 |

| dark | TrekCaptainUSA, I don't know. I can't ask him because he already downgraded to 9.04. But for my nvidia, it selects an open source driver and then ask for installing the proprietary driver, in 9.10. I think with ati it should do the same too | 02:07 |
| hiexpo | i think ati has issues in 9.10 | 02:07 |
| TrekCaptainUSA | dark: you might consider posting to the ubuntuforums.org support forums regarding this, because it could actually be a bug, but one thought (cont'd next post) | 02:07 |
| TrekCaptainUSA | dark: if the issue is with ATI cards not working in 9.10, its a bug and should be reported, but if the issue is with X and not the ATI drivers, then the install may have been botched | 02:08 |

| dark | TrekCaptainUSA, but I still believe this is a kind of bug | 02:26 |
| === TrekCaptainUSA is now known as Trek | ||
| Trek | dark: it's quite possible this is a bug in 9.10 | 02:26 |
| Samp | yeah, but it doesn't make sense that fedora set up the main partition on the only hdd in my laptop with that FS | 02:26 |
| Samp | the swap partition is... ext2 I think | 02:26 |
| Trek | dark: there's numerous ugs in 9.10, so i would expect issues with proprietary graphics cards and their drivers | 02:26 |
| jlca | r6: in grub there is a line #GRUB_TERMINAL=console The description states to uncomment to disable graphical terninal (grub-pc only) So maybe this is it. I'll try and get back to you if you are interested. | 02:26 |
| Trek | dark: i meant bugs | 02:27 |
| dark | lvm will work with the 'legacy' grub, but /boot must be outside lvm | 02:27 |
| Samp | no, it's ext4 | 02:27 |
| Pelo | Polydwarf, from what I understand, vnc only displays what is going on on the remote computer, a vnc session is not a seperate session | 02:27 |
| dark | Trek, yes, i have stumbled plenty of them :( | 02:27 |
| Gran_Ger | hi there! I have a Perfect Choice's webcam into my Ubuntu 9.10. With Cheese works fine, but when I'm trying to configure it into amsn looks like a double vision | 02:27 |
| dark | Trek, I hope they don't put any new feature in karmic+1, and just fix what they already have... | 02:27 |
| opticon | for seperate session openssh server | 02:28 |
| microhaxo | In firefox when i right click a downloaded file and click open in containing folder it opens the "launch application" window and not the location where the file is. | 02:28 |
| microhaxo | how can i fix this? | 02:28 |
| r6 | jlca, thank you that would be good | 02:28 |
| dark | ubuntu is too great to be in this perpetual state of regressions | 02:28 |
| Polydwarf | Pelo, if you run vncserver on the ubuntu box, it creates (basically) another x session running on the machine. But, I don't want one of the autostarts (mythfrontend) to run when a new vncserver session starts up. | 02:28 |
| Pelo | microhaxo, donT' right click the download link, just click it | 02:28 |
| opticon | install xming and on remote client configure putty for xforwarding you can run applications through ssh sessions | 02:28 |
| microhaxo | But i want to open the downloads folder | 02:28 |
| xeno__ | Please: How do I set my mount up in /etc so my old /dev/sda3 filesystem will mount as /home? | 02:28 |
| icedtea | anyone know how to modify the scrollwheel mouse sensitivity? | 02:28 |
| Trek | dark: thats the exact reason I haven't upgraded to 9.10 | 02:28 |
| microhaxo | that way i can extract it there | 02:28 |
| * Trek shall return in a little while | 02:28 | |
| Polydwarf | Pelo, uou may be thinking of x11vnc | 02:28 |
| N-S | Nobody knew how to check network traffic stats in any other way than with ifconfig? | 02:29 |
| Pelo | Polydwarf, possibly | 02:29 |
| xeno__ | I neglected to do this on the install, and now fstab is an obscure POS, and I see no place else to do it. | 02:29 |
| jlca | r6: ok i need maybe 10-15 mins if i'm lucky. if you don't here from me well ... i'm off now | 02:29 |
| Samp | dark: so I cannot configure grub to dual boot ubuntu and fedora unless fedora installs on a non lvm filesystem? | 02:29 |
| Viddy_ | N-S, iptables -nvL | 02:29 |
| Pelo | microhaxo, when you just click on the link ( left click) it doesn'T open the save to dialog ? | 02:29 |
| dabaR | !mount | 02:29 |
| ubottu | mount is used to attach devices to directories. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount | 02:29 |
| r6 | good luck | 02:29 |
| dark | Samp, well, you must have all kernels outside the lvm (that is: the /boot should contain all kernels, and it should be outside lvm) | 02:29 |
| onetinsoldier | N-S: what are you wanting? just to monitor network traffic? in what way? | 02:30 |
| dark | Samp, but grub2 can boot kernels inside lvm too | 02:30 |
| Ninja | hey | 02:30 |
| xeno__ | I need to mount it permanently in /etc, like you used to do by editing /etc/fstab | 02:30 |
| dark | it's still beta i guess | 02:30 |
| yoyoned | Samp: you could have a seperate non lvm /boot partition for fedora | 02:30 |
| onetinsoldier | N-S you just want to see some stats? | 02:30 |
| Ninja | anybody know how to add specific program icons to your desktop in XUbuntu? | 02:30 |
| microhaxo | Pelo: Im talking about after it's saved. In the downloads window i right click and click "Open Containing Folder" It works in windows and on the schools ubuntu comps but not mine. When i click open containing folder it opens the launch application. | 02:30 |
| xeno__ | I don't see anything in my dropdown to do this. | 02:30 |
| xeno__ | I would rather do it in the shell or with some canonical editing tool | 02:31 |
| Pelo | microhaxo, check in FF in the preferences, under the general tab, about the middle of the tab | 02:31 |
| microhaxo | Pelo what am i looking for? | 02:31 |
| N-S | Viddy_ Brilliant! Thank you. I'll make that into a little bash for easy access. | 02:31 |
| r6 | xeno__: open /etc/fstab as root and add an entry | 02:31 |
| Samp | hm, I think I'll go with grub2 | 02:32 |
| Samp | is that the default on ubuntu 9.10? | 02:32 |
| Samp | or would I have to go find it | 02:32 |
| Pelo | microhaxo, I had the wrong problem it thought it was the downloading part that was giving you problems, you might want to change that particular file association in the application tab , that might work | 02:32 |
| TrekCaptainUSA | Samp: you might be better off with Grub2 instead of Legacy Grub | 02:32 |

| Ninja | or your quicklaunch? | 02:32 |
| dark | Samp, I think sudo apt-get install grub2 will do it | 02:33 |
| microhaxo | What is the file manager called for gnome? | 02:33 |
| microhaxo | nautilus? | 02:33 |
| skai|breakfast | yes | 02:33 |
| dark | Samp, also, you don't have to have grub2 installed in all os; in fact, you should pick an os for managing grub | 02:33 |
| TrekCaptainUSA | microhaxo: yes | 02:33 |
| Samp | ah ok. | 02:33 |
| Gran_Ger | hi there! I have a Perfect Choice's webcam into my Ubuntu 9.10. With Cheese works fine, but when I'm trying to configure it into amsn looks like a double vision | 02:33 |
| N-S | onetinsoldier It would be neat to see current traffic too, realtime. Preferrably in a CLI app, since I rarely ever use the desktop. | 02:33 |
| Samp | Probably ubuntu, since I'm more comfy with that. | 02:33 |
| skai|breakfast | Gran_Ger: what cam? | 02:33 |
| onetinsoldier | Samp: pretty sure grub2 is the default in 9.10, but it's a beta vesion, 1.97~beta3 or something like that | 02:33 |
| TrekCaptainUSA | UBUNTU FTW! | 02:34 |
| dark | Samp, but read the wiki for something about it! it's not 'production ready' and may contain bugs. i also never used it | 02:34 |

| dark | microhaxo, /usr/bin | 02:36 |
| mlissner | My problem is that the disk never goes away from the places menu. | 02:36 |
| Pelo | microhaxo, barely , you want taht the firefox download windows opens the containing folder of whatever you downloaded and not start what ever you downloaded | 02:36 |
| mlissner | Does anybody have any thoughts? | 02:36 |
| dark | microhaxo, this dialog is broken, it should point you to the actual location of programs by default | 02:37 |
| microhaxo | it never points me to the actual location | 02:37 |
| dark | it begins in the home dir and this is annoying. (also true the dialog for setting icons in taskbar, etc) | 02:37 |
| === radio is now known as cwillu_recording | ||
| microhaxo | it wont even open a tar in firefox | 02:37 |

| dark | hmmmm | 02:38 |
| Samp | whoah, both gparted and cfdisk (when run on the ubuntu live cd) report both the fedora partition and the swap partition as "free space" | 02:38 |

| dark | mlissner, what is your encryption scheme? | 02:39 |
| N-S | microhaxo eh, of course, Firefox doesn't know how to open anything unless you tell it with what app to do it. It's a webbrowser, not a filemanager. | 02:39 |

| microhaxo | N-S | 02:39 |
| mlissner | dark: It's via luks, I believe? | 02:39 |

| mlissner | dark: Do you know the way to forcibly unmount a normal drive? | 02:40 |
| Ninja | or, at least, nobodys talking | 02:40 |
| dark | microhaxo, it is a regular file. but anyway you should use /usr/bin/file-roller to open .tar files | 02:41 |
| Pelo | Ninja, try doing a search in the forum www.ubuntuforums.org | 02:41 |
| microhaxo | ok, i'll fix that one | 02:41 |
| microhaxo | thanks | 02:41 |
| dark | mlissner, sudo umount -l /directory | 02:41 |
| mlissner | dark: it's not actually connected physically, but nautilus (and I assume the rest of the OS) thinks it's there. | 02:41 |
| Ninja | ok | 02:41 |
| blakkheim | dark: why use file-roller? tar is just fine | 02:41 |
| onetinsoldier | icedtea: hello. dpkg -S /some/file | 02:41 |
| dark | mlissner, there are other ways, but... when i try them, always, something go wrong.. | 02:41 |
| dark | blakkheim, tar is a command line program.. | 02:42 |
| blakkheim | dark: yes it is | 02:42 |
| dark | i actually never use file-roller or nautilus, and tar for me is fine | 02:42 |

| Collin | help! :( | 02:42 |
| Collin | sudo: /etc/sudoers is mode 0777, should be 0440 | 02:42 |

| Collin | chmod: changing permissions of `/etc/sudoers': Operation not permitted | 02:42 |
| jamie | How do I change the start menu Icon. | 02:43 |
| Trek | Collin, try using sudo before it | 02:43 |
| blakkheim | jamie: there is no start menu in ubuntu, that's for windows | 02:43 |
| mlissner | dark: Hmmm, I can't figure out which directory to actually umount. It shows up in nautilus, but not in the directory structure... | 02:43 |
| Collin | i did | 02:43 |
| Collin | Tr0gd0r | 02:43 |
| dark | Collin, maybe your partition is read only? | 02:43 |
| Collin | Trek* | 02:43 |

| dark | wow hahaha | 02:43 |
| Trek | o lol | 02:43 |
| Collin | yea | 02:43 |
| onetinsoldier | nice | 02:43 |
| Collin | cant use sudo | 02:43 |
| Pelo | jamie, open up gconf-editor, look for app>panel, somwhere in there you can specify the icon, but I don' t remember exactly where | 02:43 |
| dark | mlissner, type mount in the terminal | 02:43 |
| onetinsoldier | and can't access the sudoers file.. hmm | 02:44 |
| jamie | Thanks, Pelo! | 02:44 |
| Trek | sounds like you'll need root, Collin | 02:44 |
| dark | mlissner, if you are unsure you could past in the paste.ubuntu.com , if you don't think this is sensitive | 02:44 |
| Samp | are there other tools for managing hard drive partitions besides cfdisk and gparted? | 02:44 |
| Collin | okay | 02:44 |
| Trek | but that might not work... | 02:44 |
| r6 | Collin: if you haven't set a root passwd i think you'll have to reboot in single mode and restore the perms | 02:44 |
| onetinsoldier | Collin: do it from a live cd | 02:44 |
| mlissner | dark: typing in mount doesn't show the disk. | 02:44 |
| Trek | Collin: if sudo didn't work, root probably won't work either | 02:44 |
| Pelo | jamie, don'T thank me yet, you haven't seen what a mess the4 panel tree is | 02:44 |
| Collin | Trek, sudo didnt work cause sudoers file is 0777 | 02:45 |
| dark | mlissner, so i guess it is not mounted... | 02:45 |
| Collin | root doesnt need sudo.. | 02:45 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm scary that sudoers became 777 somehow. | 02:45 |
| jamie | Ummm, where exactly is gconf-editor lol? | 02:45 |
| Trek | Collin: sudo runs a command as root. i use it to mess with system files without logging in as root | 02:45 |
| dark | Collin, if sudo don't work, you need to reboot in single user mode | 02:45 |
| gaelfx | is it possible to get vdpau playback working in VLC if I'm using nVidia 190.53 drivers installed, or do I need to be using the recommended driver (185.xx or whatever it is)? | 02:45 |
| Dr_Willis | jamie: try 'which command' | 02:45 |
| Trek | Collin: try booting from a LiveUSB or a LiveCD | 02:46 |
| dark | Collin, it's a switch in grub which i forgot | 02:46 |
| jlca | r6: ok I back with a new bag.... I was able to get it to work | 02:46 |
| Trek | and try messing with your sudoers file that way | 02:46 |
| r6 | the switch is "single" | 02:46 |
| dark | Collin, I remembered. edit the kernel line to add a 'single', then boot | 02:46 |
| mlissner | dark: yeah, it seems that way, except that nautilus thinks it is. | 02:46 |
| scunizi | gaelfx: 185 no.. you might need to use the 195 beta version | 02:46 |
| donaldo | I have problems installing the backports the new alsa-driver | 02:46 |

| Collin | ... | 02:47 |
| Collin | gey | 02:47 |
| jlca | r6: I just uncommented that line and rebooted with negative results. however I realized that you must run update-grub for the changes to take affect and that did it. | 02:48 |
| Schui | haha | 02:48 |
| dark | mlissner, okay, it is not mounted. when you click it, nautilus tries to mount. type dmesg to see some more info on this error | 02:48 |
| dark | mlissner, it might be the case that you entered the wrong password, or the partition is damaged | 02:48 |
| Schui | how would i link an internet connection to the desktop? | 02:48 |
| dark | Schui, 'connection'? like a shortcut for 'connect/disconnect'? | 02:49 |
| Schui | yeah its for my uncle | 02:49 |
| r6 | jlca: sorry i forgot to tell you that, what were the options that worked? | 02:49 |
| dark | Schui, can you make a bash script...? I am unsure if ubuntu would have this out of box | 02:49 |
| mlissner | dark: yeah, I might have entered the wrong password...that's possible. | 02:49 |
| jamie | I tried in gconf-editor to look for the start icon, but I was unsuccessful. | 02:50 |
| jlca | r6: there were no additional options add. | 02:50 |
| Schui | if you were wondering its just the wireless connection for his laptop, i managed to get it to work without the verizon manager | 02:50 |
| Ninja | anybody know how i can get into the mint server? | 02:50 |
| Schui | i guess its not really a big deal, since you can choose connections from that little icon thing | 02:50 |
| Dr_Willis | jamie: if you mean the ubuntu logo icon by the applications menu - the 'ubuntu-tweak' tool lets you change that easially | 02:50 |
| jamie | Awesome! | 02:50 |
| jamie | I have that. | 02:50 |
| Dr_Willis | !mint | Ninja | 02:50 |
| ubottu | Ninja: There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mintsupport), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), crunchbang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #remote-exploit) | 02:50 |
| kaolbrec | Ninja: If it's the mint I'm thinking of, there's a big hole in the middle. | 02:50 |
| dark | mlissner, in some encryption schemes, entering the wrong password is indistinguishable from trying to mount a corrupted file system | 02:50 |
| Ninja | do i just type that into the server name? | 02:50 |
| jlca | r6: it might work just adding nosplash if one ran updat-grub afterward | 02:50 |
| r6 | got it, GRUB_TERMINAL, i'll try that! | 02:51 |
| N-S | onetinsoldier I do love it :-) Pity it doesn't have a -humans switch. Reading stats in bytes is such a pain :-) | 02:51 |

| Ninja | hole? | 02:51 |
| jamie | Thanks Dr_Willis. | 02:51 |
| dark | Schui, can't he use the wizard that is in the taskbar? | 02:51 |
| kaolbrec | Ninja: Polos man! | 02:51 |
| Schui | yeah i guess so lol | 02:51 |
| Schui | it would just be easier | 02:51 |
| onetinsoldier | N-S: glad you like it :-) i think there is a way to switch between kb/s, kB/s, ect | 02:51 |

| Schui | dark i'll look it up, thank you | 02:52 |
| onetinsoldier | N-S: poke around in the config... pretty sure it's there somewhere | 02:52 |
| dark | Schui, if you put that commands in a text file and put the first line as #!/bin/bash, and mark the script as 'executable', when you double click the file, it will execute the commands in the order specificed in the file | 02:52 |
| dark | Schui, as it it were executed in terminal | 02:53 |

| Schui | dark - i see.. well i guess i could try it, if anything i would at least know how to make a bash script. lol | 02:53 |

| Samp | aha! running fdisk, I got this error : "blah blah number of cylinders = 7270, blah blah this is > 1024, may cause problems with partitioning software from other OS's" | 02:55 |
| geezenslaw_ | Hi, I have a fresh install of Karmic on my flashdrive and it boots cleanly. | 02:55 |
| dark | mlissner, or maybe the one with the answer is sleeping right now.. who knows? | 02:55 |
| hiexpo | hugh | 02:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Samp: thats just a warning - that dosent really apply to newer machines these days | 02:55 |
| Samp | hm. I was afraid of that. | 02:55 |
| microhaxo | OMG | 02:56 |
| microhaxo | google chromium is so damn buggy | 02:56 |
| FeiRuoWa | hiexpo, highlighting somebody or asking what it is? | 02:56 |
| Dr_Willis | Samp: its niot an error. Unless you got a 10+ yr old machine and are using LILO | 02:56 |
| microhaxo | the options window cant be resized without it STAYING one size | 02:56 |
| Roasted_ | Question - Is there any way I can change the way things in the bottom gnome panel react when they need attention? Such as IMs. How do I control whether or not they flash? I put a new theme on I really like and they dont flash now. Can I change it? | 02:56 |
| geezenslaw_ | Howto change the Karmic hostname: ubuntu to something custom like spongebob | 02:56 |
| Dr_Willis | microhaxo: oh? ive not had any issues with it at all. | 02:56 |
| microhaxo | you make it larger and it's stuck that way! | 02:56 |
| UbuntuFish | @microhaxo: try google chrome dev build | 02:56 |
| microhaxo | i thought chromium is better? | 02:56 |
| Samp | Dr_Willis: but cfdisk and gparted report my partitions as empty space | 02:56 |
| UbuntuFish | @microhaxo: it runs without a hitch. i use it as my primary browser | 02:56 |
| hiexpo | ya dont understand that a what cd | 02:56 |
| FeiRuoWa | Roasted_, are you sure it's not a program preference? | 02:57 |
| eremite | UbuntuFish, dont tell people to Google something. | 02:57 |
| Samp | even though an OS is installed there. | 02:57 |
| Dr_Willis | Samp: after partioniong a disk be sure to WRITE or APPLY changes to the disk | 02:57 |
| FeiRuoWa | hiexpo, it's a music sharing community thing | 02:57 |
| hiexpo | oh | 02:57 |
| UbuntuFish | @microhaxo: chromium is the "bleeding edge" version of chrome | 02:57 |
| hiexpo | gotcha | 02:57 |
| dark | Schui, something: go to the desktop folder with cd ~/Desktop, do a echo '#!/bin/bash\nzenity --question' > test, then chmod +x test, then double click the "test" file on the desktop | 02:57 |
| UbuntuFish | @microhaxo: chrome is more polished and stable | 02:57 |
| Dr_Willis | microhaxo: option window resizes fine here. | 02:57 |
| Samp | Dr_Willis: the partitions were created during an install of fedora12 | 02:57 |
| Roasted_ | FeiRuoWa, When I get IMs, they flash on the default panel. I put a new theme in, they don't flash. I dont see how it would be... | 02:57 |
| r6 | geezenslaw_; check /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts | 02:57 |
| Dr_Willis | Samp: no idea then. see what 'sudo fdisk -l' says perhaps | 02:58 |
| UbuntuFish | @eremite: i wasn't telling him to google something. i was telling him to try using "google chrome dev build" | 02:58 |
| dark | Schui, when you double click it, it should display a question dialog that ask if you want to proceed (you can change zenity --question to zenity --warning and see what happens) | 02:58 |
| geezenslaw_ | I did but when I reboot it gets reset back to ubuntu | 02:58 |
| eremite | UbuntuFish, oh, so sorry. | 02:58 |
| UbuntuFish | @eremite: lol no problem. | 02:58 |
| eremite | UbuntuFish, I use this when people need me to Google something for them -- http://lmgtfy.com/ | 02:59 |
| Samp | I think the problem is that it's got an lvm filesystem for some reason. I wonder if that's the standard for fedora installs. Either way it's not really an ubuntu question so I'll poke around elsewhere; see if a reinstall helps. | 02:59 |
| jamie | Mr. Dr_Willis. | 02:59 |
| UbuntuFish | @eremite: lol | 02:59 |
| Schui | dark, when i typed in echo '#!/bin/bash\nzenity --question' there was only a blank line | 02:59 |
| Schui | dark, without the quotes of course | 02:59 |
| dark | the quotes are actually necessary | 03:00 |
| jamie | In Ubuntu Tweak, where is the place to change my ubuntu icon? | 03:00 |
| Schui | oh okay haha | 03:00 |
| reginald | hello | 03:00 |
| UbuntuFish | so, everyone. i have heard on the internetz that ubuntu lucid won't have compiz support. surely you jest! pls tell me it isn't true | 03:00 |
| UbuntuFish | @reginald: hello | 03:00 |
| dark | Schui, (but what about joining #bash ? maybe our discussion here is beginning to be slightly off-topic) | 03:00 |
| freebsdlover | :s | 03:00 |
| jlca | r6: did it work? | 03:01 |
| eremite | jamie, what Ubuntu icon? Do you mean your theme Icon? Change your icon theme. Right click desktop, change desktop background, then choose themes and then customize. | 03:01 |
| r6 | geezenslaw_: you're using karmic? | 03:01 |
| onetinsoldier | UbuntuFish: i'm in Lucid right now.. in compiz. don't know what the plans are for the future or anything.. but, for now it has compiz | 03:01 |
| Schui | dark, roger | 03:01 |
| r6 | jlca: i realized it'll give me a text console, but i want framebuffer console :/ | 03:02 |
| Dr_Willis | jamie: explore the settings its just a little button in there somewhere i saw last night could be you need the latest version. Mine auto-update | 03:02 |
| UbuntuFish | onetinsoldier: yay! thanks. btw, how is it? | 03:02 |
| BrixSat2 | hello | 03:02 |
| jamie | Oh, It did say I need to update, but I ignored it, I will try that. | 03:03 |
| jlca | r6: i don't know the diff | 03:03 |
| BrixSat2 | i have disk problems is there any hdd regenerator for ubuntu? ( im running live cd now) | 03:03 |
| onetinsoldier | UbuntuFish: it's a heck of a lot like Karmic, seriously. it's nice, except Xorg is newer version(7.5 rather than 7.4), kernel is bleeding edge too. so, i can't install proprietary video card driver to get 3d accel going. not yet anyway | 03:03 |
| FeiRuoWa | Roasted_, something else could have gotten changed accidentally | 03:03 |
| Dr_Willis | jamie: gnome settings 'click tghe buttion to change the menu logo'....... | 03:03 |
| r6 | jlca: framebuffer gives you graphics mode console, you can set pseudo text resolutions higher than 80x25 | 03:04 |
| freebsdlover | meeeeeeeeeeeew | 03:04 |
| hiexpo | eremite i told her that earlier | 03:04 |
| Roasted_ | FeiRuoWa, No. Nothing got changed. I've tried several themes. Each theme often reacts differently. It's definitely a theme thing... but something I'm hoping I can change... | 03:04 |
| r6 | jlca: very common and i been using it from years, but with latest ubuntus i couldn't anymore | 03:04 |
| _CommandeR_ | doing a bash script need help. variable=bzr revno but that dont work so how should it be? | 03:04 |

| Flare-Laptop | Samp: for the most part yes | 03:10 |

| Paddy_NI | !mic | CyL | 03:17 |
| Paddy_NI | hmm | 03:17 |
| onetinsoldier | UbuntuFish: really, i haven't been using it long enough to be a very good judge of that. yesterday, it was hanging on shutdown. today i updated the package list and there was a newer version of the kernel(subversion went from -10 to -11). i let it upgrqade everythying. shuts down and reboots fine now | 03:18 |
| iflema | Cyl plug it in and make sure its not muted is a good start.... | 03:18 |
| CyL | iflema: it is a bultin mic, and it is not muted... | 03:18 |
| iflema | CyL and its not a lowercase l | 03:19 |
| onetinsoldier | UbuntuFish: however... if i update often, you never know what might happen or come my way in this 'alpha' os ;-) you get some, surprises now and then. years ago i used to run debian sid | 03:19 |
| onetinsoldier | so i have an idea of what it can be like | 03:19 |
| CyL | iflema: sorry? | 03:20 |
| UbuntuFish | onetinsoldier: yeah. i installed karmic really early on. i don't really regret it, it was fun, but i used the like alpha as my only os | 03:20 |

| UbuntuFish | everyone i am going for now, bye | 03:22 |
| plazia | is it video? | 03:22 |
| onetinsoldier | UbuntuFish: yeah. i would recommend full reinstall after official release, although not really 'required'. and yeah, the alpha is more exciting! sometimes you'd swear a newer version of a package is coming in every ten minutes, hehe. | 03:22 |

| DJCharlie | Long story short: I have 9.10 (server edition) running, and I'd like to put X on it to provide a graphical display. Here's my xorg.conf: http://pastebin.com/mf51e74a - But when I run startx, or even X -config xorg.conf.new, I get this: http://pastebin.com/m1887d9ff - And the full output log is here: http://pastebin.com/m276640bf - Any ideas? | 03:27 |
| Flare-Laptop | xubunoobie: Nope Mine works fine | 03:27 |
| cosmopaladin | is just netgear routers | 03:27 |
| xubunoobie | I went to a computer lab with a linksys router and it worked fine, but I am not able to connect to my new netgear. No problem connecting with XP | 03:29 |
| xubunoobie | I googled the problem and there were old posts of people having this problem connecting to Netgear routers with older versions of Ubuntu. Unfortunately there were no solutions posted. | 03:29 |

| plazia | Anyone know which group a normal user has to belong to in order to access the framebuffer? | 03:32 |
| tweaksource | Fezzler: I have never gotten pulseaudio to work with jack. Better of using ALSA or OSS. | 03:33 |
| Roasted_ | Question - Is there any way I can change the way things in the bottom gnome panel react when they need attention? Such as IMs. How do I control whether or not they flash? I put a new theme on I really like and they dont flash now. Can I change it? | 03:34 |
| Fezzler | tweaksource: So just uninstall pulseaudio - that's what I figured. I only installed it to record audio reference songs from YouTube for my guitar/Ardour sessions | 03:34 |
| r6 | plazia: video? | 03:34 |
| Fezzler | tweaksource: It introduced a ton of latency | 03:34 |

| Fezzler | tweaksource: I guess there is another way to record YouTube video with fflmgr or something like that | 03:35 |
| tweaksource | Fezzler: Yeah. I'm not a big fan of pa. pavucontrol is the best thing for it. | 03:35 |
| tweaksource | Firefox + Video Downloadhelper | 03:36 |
| DJCharlie | Balsaq, I wouldn't. | 03:36 |
| r6 | plazia: hey it's a guess eh? i'm not positive but i'd try | 03:36 |
| plazia | r6, tried it and it works perfectly | 03:36 |
| Fezzler | tweaksource: I really don't need it. Why do people like /need pusleaudio - it must serve some nitche | 03:36 |
| plazia | had to log out first | 03:36 |
| r6 | cool | 03:37 |
| plazia | r6, once again thanks | 03:37 |
| r6 | no problem :) | 03:37 |
| tweaksource | I do like pavucontrol because you can direct the input/output streams of different apps to different places. | 03:37 |
| tweaksource | Perhaps pulse audio will become really good. Who knows. | 03:38 |
| r6 | Fezzler: multiplexing sound over a non multiplexing card afaik | 03:38 |
| tweaksource | Fezler: what audio interface are you using? | 03:38 |
| cosmopaladin | Fezzler: I alway thought is was cool how you could send you sound out put across the network to stuff I don't know if jack can do that never really used it pulse was has been fine for me | 03:38 |
| Fezzler | r6: Thanks - whatever that is :) | 03:38 |
| ben_ | what problems are people having with Pulse Audio? | 03:39 |
| ben_ | Is it different sound sources at the same time? | 03:39 |
| r6 | Fezzler: lol, it is playing music and hearing system sounds, for example | 03:39 |
| iflema | ben_ yep | 03:39 |
| ben_ | I never really noticed anything wrong with it. | 03:39 |
| cosmopaladin | same | 03:39 |
| r6 | besides network streaming is cool | 03:39 |
| tweaksource | When you try to do real-time audio, pulse audio is a booger. | 03:39 |
| ben_ | im watching a youtube video, playing White Zombie, and hitting backspace in an empty textbox. | 03:40 |
| cosmopaladin | you can use jack for that thought pulse if fine for use casual users | 03:40 |
| ben_ | no problems. | 03:40 |
| Fezzler | ben_: I installed it as an easy way to use Audacity to record sound off YouTube. Reference songs for guitar hobby. After I installed it, Jack had huge latency issues I could not resolve. I final figured out it was pulseaudio causing it | 03:40 |
| Nubuntu | i finally got some spare time to trow in a 80gb with ubuntu its my computer is realy quick now :) | 03:40 |
| tweaksource | cosmopaladin: It sucks to play your guitar and hear it 2 seconds later. Really hard to record that way. | 03:41 |
| microhaxo | Could someone help me? http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2009/08/google-doc-integration-ubuntu-linux.html This does not work AT ALL for me on 9.10 | 03:41 |

| Nubuntu | wich pluggs do i need for video and music? | 03:42 |
| cosmopaladin | tweaksource: so you use jack and things are fine right | 03:42 |
| Xcell | How to convert mp3 to ac3 ? | 03:42 |
| tweaksource | jack with ALSA or OSS. Jack and PA don't mix. | 03:42 |
| Roasted_ | Question - Is there any way I can change the way things in the bottom gnome panel react when they need attention? Such as IMs. How do I control whether or not they flash? I put a new theme on I really like and they dont flash now. Can I change it? | 03:43 |
| Fezzler | tweaksource: pulseaudio - zapped. gone. uninstalled. I hope it didn't leave anything troublesome behind | 03:43 |
| cosmopaladin | tweaksource: i will keep that in mind if I ever need to do any real audio editing | 03:43 |
| ben_ | @iflema: when I plug my headphones into Logitech's headphone port everythign works. when I plug it into my computer's headphone port I still get sound from th speakers. | 03:43 |
| r6 | Xcell: install soundconverter | 03:43 |
| tweaksource | Editing is fine, it's only when you need to take audio in, really. | 03:43 |
| Xcell | ok, tx | 03:43 |
| microhaxo | Anyone help with a nautilus script not working?? | 03:43 |
| Fezzler | Jack works great with my Digitech RP250 as a USB audio card for sound in and out | 03:44 |
| iflema | ben_ theres one issue for a lot of people... | 03:44 |
| tweaksource | Fezzler: Lemme check and see what I have running. | 03:44 |
| ben_ | what's that? | 03:44 |
| Fezzler | tweaksource: may go ProTools soon with M-Box or Edirol Firewire and stay with Ardour/Reaper | 03:45 |
| ben_ | random question: if I got a tattoo that covered say 75% of my back, how much do you think I'd be looking at in US dollars? | 03:45 |
| tweaksource | I like M-Audio. I have good luck with Delta 1010 and an evolution keyboard. | 03:46 |
| r6 | that depends on how much pushups you do | 03:46 |
| tweaksource | ProTools on what OS? | 03:46 |
| Xcell | works nicely. thanks r6 | 03:46 |
| cosmopaladin | ben_, : what kind of tatoo like is it one of thoughts Japaneses ones that is like a painting on your skin thoughts are really cool | 03:46 |
| Fezzler | tweaksource: Either Mac or Vista | 03:46 |

| plustax | I cant put icons on my desktop | 04:15 |
| onetinsoldier | ranjan: hi. i really like fwbuilder-*3.07*. however, i had to jump through a few hoops to get it installed and set up in karmic | 04:15 |
| plustax | I put them in the desktop folder and I try to drag and drop on there. No dice. | 04:15 |
| DJCharlie | scunizi: Again, I've got it installed, WITH dependencies. The problem is in xorg's configuration. | 04:15 |
| plustax | Anyone help me out? | 04:15 |
| hdon | how can i find a list of the kernels i have currently installed? grub may be one way, but i don't know where to look | 04:15 |
| hdon | without rebooting | 04:15 |
| ranjan | onetinsoldier : does it'll work on private ip's | 04:16 |
| tweaksource | plustax: what desktop environment or window manager? | 04:16 |
| scunizi | DJCharlie: do you have a crt or lcd? type xrandr into a terminal and see if the resolution you need is displayed | 04:16 |
| plustax | Im using gnome | 04:16 |
| tweaksource | hdon: /boot/grub/menu.lst | 04:16 |

| === ctp_ is now known as ctp | ||

| DJCharlie | scunizi: It's a television. And xrandr gives this: Can't open display | 04:17 |
| plustax | tweaksource I turned off compiz's desktop drawing and now I see my natural wallpaper again. But I can't drop icons on my DT now | 04:17 |
| onetinsoldier | ranjan: i'm not network expert, but the feeling you get from setting up your firewall with this firewall builder is that you can set it up to do pretty much anything | 04:17 |
| Nubuntu | how to activate compiz | 04:17 |
| scunizi | DJCharlie: hooked up with vga, dvi or hdmi? | 04:17 |
| tweaksource | plustax: try metacity --replace & | 04:17 |
| hdon | tweaksource, no such file in /boot/grub :( | 04:17 |
| qwerty__ | HI room | 04:18 |
| DJCharlie | scunizi: Composite, tv-out. Did you look at the log I pastebinned? | 04:18 |
| qwerty__ | I disabled the screensaver, but when its in idle, the screen still gets dark | 04:18 |
| onetinsoldier | ranjan: i'm pretty sure the answer is yes... you can enter in specific ip's, hosts, ect | 04:18 |
| hdon | tweaksource, /boot/grub/grub.cfg seems to have the info | 04:18 |
| plustax | tweaksource still didnt work | 04:18 |
| plustax | tweaksource that just shut compiz off | 04:18 |

| plustax | tweaksource Im not familiar with it. I'm rather new at linux | 04:22 |

| plustax | perhaps pm? | 04:22 |

| tweaksource | plustax: try this http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-536243.html | 04:23 |
| onetinsoldier | ranjan: that would be 3.05... it's borked. i got 3.07 and i think... it's just amazing. i've really never quite seen a firewall builder like this. and it's working perfectly. i've learned how to use it somewhat | 04:23 |

| DJCharlie | scunizi: 1, it's not a dual-head situation. And 2, xrandr won't run PERIOD. The problem is specifically with xorg.conf | 04:31 |

| Roasted | well, wahtever comse default with gnome | 04:45 |
| scunizi | DJCharlie: wow .. I take it you don't want to try to install ubuntu-desktop because of all the dependancies.. how 'bout xubuntu-desktop.. if x and the gui work then it would be fixed.. openbox should be an option on login.. if it works you can uninstall xubuntu and leave openbox.. if it still doesn't work manually set the resolution/scan rate for the crt & TV using xrandr.. it all comes back to xrandr.. however if you can configure xorg.co | 04:45 |
| Roasted | usr13, I kind of use my bottom panel like most people use docks. I have the panel to auto hide and all. I just wish it wasnt the entire length of the screen. | 04:45 |

| Gnea | guerd87: yeah, they kinda made running gui apps from a server in 9.10 rather difficult, although it shouldn't be impossible across ssh | 05:10 |
| cegorach | i'm already following a guide like that @ http://forums.tripwireinteractive.com/showthread.php?t=30911 | 05:10 |
| onetinsoldier | cegorach: roger. it should work as long as you have the 32-bit libs/evironment installed | 05:10 |
| Gnea | guerd87: you can run the gui from the server and have it show up on your desktop | 05:11 |
| cegorach | how do i check to see if those are installed? | 05:11 |
| rumpsy | whereis | 05:11 |
| Gnea | guerd87: but I usually test just by running "sensors" | 05:11 |

| Kamokow | Explore1: Python and Python2.6 are the current python packages. | 06:13 |
| soreau | ouyes: For 9.10, fglrx will probably work but using the xorg-edgers repo, you can get the open radeon driver to have 3D accel | 06:13 |
| Threetimes | ouyes: the latest fglrx 9.12 from ati.com works in 9.10 | 06:13 |

| Adil | can I just install the card and run sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg from the command line? | 06:31 |
| soreau | ouyes: In order to get fglrx working in karmic 9.10, just use sys>admin>hardware drivers. Alternatively to use the open radeon driver, you must not install fglrx but instead do: sudo apt-add-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 06:31 |
| soreau | ouyes: In either case, restart and 3D should be working | 06:31 |
| rww | Adil: If you didn't create a custom xorg.conf, Xorg should just autodetect the new card and deal with it. You shouldn't need to dpkg-reconfigure. | 06:31 |

| rumpsy | Threetimes, don't use sudo aticonfig --overlay-type=Xv | 06:38 |
| rww | csaba: One thread can't run on two cores at the same time, and most applications are not multithreaded, so if you have one thing using all the CPU it can, it'll likely only be using one core. | 06:38 |
| rumpsy | Threetimes, best of luck | 06:38 |
| soreau | plustax: You need to explain more and learn to ask better questions. Your distros icon is all over the place. Exactly where do you want to change it? | 06:38 |
| soreau | plustax: It's much quicker for you if you don't leave us up to guessing | 06:39 |
| rww | csaba: If you had *two* programs using all the CPU they could, it would hit 100%. | 06:39 |

| rumpsy | i'm helping him to install a proper driver to get login window | 06:45 |
| me | hi | 06:45 |
| * Threetimes is trying to use his laptop with X and gdm | 06:45 | |
| soreau | rumpsy: video driver? | 06:45 |
| === me is now known as Guest37894 | ||
| rww | qiyong: Hardy's supported until April 2011 on desktop and April 2013 on servers. | 06:45 |
| rumpsy | soreau: ?, yes video driver | 06:45 |
| soreau | Threetimes: Which card model do you have? | 06:45 |
| qiyong | if hardy is supported, why i get 404 error from apt-get update? | 06:46 |
| qiyong | rww, ^ | 06:46 |
| Threetimes | Mobility HD4570 | 06:46 |
| Guest37894 | ima slut | 06:46 |
| rww | qiyong: copy the entire output of apt-get update to http://paste.ubuntu.com/ and link the page it creates here. | 06:46 |
| Threetimes | fglrxinfo -display :0 just hands and without -display it displays the error | 06:46 |
| soreau | Threetimes: What version of ubuntu? | 06:47 |
| Guest37894 | hell > debian | 06:47 |
| Threetimes | 9.10 | 06:47 |
| soreau | Threetimes: How did you install the driver? | 06:47 |
| rww | Guest37894: Do you have an Ubuntu support question? | 06:47 |
| Threetimes | I ran the binary installer (9.12) from ati.com | 06:47 |
| Threetimes | the version included in ubuntu doesn't work | 06:48 |
| Guest37894 | Yes, where is the equivalent to ifcfg-eth0? | 06:48 |
| soreau | Threetimes: Well you probably want to remove that by running the uninstall script in /usr/share/ati and install instead via sys>admin>hardware drivers | 06:48 |
| Guest37894 | How do I view what pci devices are currently installed? | 06:48 |
| soreau | ! work | Threetimes | 06:48 |
| ubottu | Threetimes: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too. | 06:48 |
| rww | Guest37894: /etc/network/interfaces (see `man interfaces`) and `lspci` | 06:49 |
| Guest37894 | Thank you sir | 06:49 |
| soreau | Threetimes: Your other option is to install the latest open driver packages which will give you 3D acceleration | 06:49 |
| IdleOne | plustax: this should work http://www.pendrivelinux.com/changing-the-ubuntu-start-menu-panel-icon/ | 06:49 |
| afroman | I think Threetimes and I have the same problem | 06:50 |
| Threetimes | soreau: is it suitable for day-to-day use already? Are we talking about radeonhd? | 06:50 |
| soreau | afroman: Which card do you have? | 06:50 |
| afroman | ati mobility radeon hd 3470 | 06:50 |
| Guest37894 | Anyone have any experience with BlueCherry dvr cards? unbuntu os | 06:50 |
| soreau | Threetimes: No, you don't want radeonhd for the open driver. You want radeon | 06:50 |
| soreau | afroman: Can you explain the problem you're having? | 06:50 |
| soreau | I can tell both of you how to use the open driver for 3D on karmic | 06:51 |
| Threetimes | oh. How do I use it? Should I use it for school work? (as in: teachers get angry when my laptop crashes) | 06:51 |
| rumpsy | soreau: cool | 06:51 |
| afroman | soreau: I did an apt-get update, then came the upgrade window | 06:51 |
| afroman | I clicked on install, then restarted the laptop | 06:51 |
| afroman | that's when I got the black screen everytime I try to enter X | 06:52 |
| rumpsy | soreau: Start to explain for us | 06:52 |
| Threetimes | afroman: you did the update thing yesterday? | 06:52 |
| afroman | ya | 06:52 |
| xae8koo | Hello | 06:52 |
| soreau | Threetimes: rumpsy: 1) Look at the output of 'dpkg -l|grep fglrx' and remove any packages with 'ii' next to them 2) Run this to install latest open driver packages 'sudo apt-add-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade' 3) Rename, move or remove /etc/X1//xorg.conf 4) Reboot. | 06:52 |
| xae8koo | Is there any special precautions I should take to be ready for 2012? | 06:53 |
| dragon | how do I ping the staffers in freenode? /stats p doesn't seem to work. | 06:53 |
| rww | dragon: ask in #freenode, people who are voiced are staff | 06:53 |
| dragon | rww: thanks | 06:53 |
| rww | Threetimes, rumpsy: The xorg-edgers PPA is beta-quality software, may break your computer, and is not supported. | 06:53 |
| === mcmlxxi is now known as suigeneris | ||
| Threetimes | I don't have apt-add?! | 06:54 |
| rumpsy | oic :O | 06:54 |
| rumpsy | its apt-get -add | 06:54 |
| soreau | maybe that was for afroman ^^ and not rumpsy, not sure who's the one with the problem :) | 06:54 |
| rww | soreau: Please read https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa , including the part where it says not to tell people to use xorg-edgers without pointing them to that page. | 06:54 |
| ZoeyMarie | since upgrading to karmic, I haven't been able to change my headphone volume. Any idea how I could do this? System > Preferences > Sound has nothing that I could see. | 06:54 |
| soreau | rww: No thank you, I will continue to suggest and promote the open source driver | 06:55 |
| rww | soreau: "** Please do not publish instructions for how to install from this archive without linking to this page! Anyone using packages from this archive is expected to read this page first. ** | 06:55 |
| afroman | soreau: it's me ;) | 06:55 |
| afroman | soreau: but U went a bit too fast | 06:55 |
| rww | soreau: I use those drivers too, but pointing people at them without having them read that page first is irresponsible and against the wishes of the PPA maintainers. | 06:55 |
| soreau | rumpsy: apt-add-repository does not work? | 06:56 |
| rumpsy | not working for, Threetimes | 06:56 |
| soreau | Ok, IdleOne ? | 06:57 |
| soreau | IdleOne: apt-add-repository: command not found | 06:57 |
| IdleOne | soreau: the xorg-edgers is alpha/beta software and that is why the user should be told before hand of the dangers | 06:57 |
| IdleOne | soreau: that only works on 9.10+ | 06:58 |
| IdleOne | soreau: before that they have to edit sources.list | 06:58 |
| soreau | Well good then | 06:58 |
| soreau | I can still recommend this and if it doesn't work they can't break it | 06:58 |
| syoliven | as a novice ubuntu user how can i find documentation on changing the boot sequence so that Vista is the defauls os rather than ubuntu? Is there a manual available on this subject? | 06:59 |
| soreau | Otherwise they will figure it out by reading between the lines | 06:59 |
| rumpsy | i'm LTS, apt-add is not working for me too now, just now i checked | 06:59 |
| Threetimes | I ran out of time, i'll install these new cool drivers later today... | 06:59 |
| Sapristi | Hi folks.My newly installed Karmic-system shuts itself down at night. The Power management-dialogue states that this should never happen. What could be the cause for the shutdown, then? | 06:59 |
| rumpsy | Threetimes: Have a good day | 06:59 |
| IdleOne | soreau: We can not assume that the user knows what PPA, we have a responsibility to let them know what it is they are doing. | 07:00 |
| IdleOne | what PPA is* | 07:00 |
| soreau | IdleOne: Right but we can assume that if they don't, they will run whatever command hits the deck and since apt-add-repository is not working on default karmic, it wont work so they can't possibly understand how to break it | 07:01 |
| soreau | If they do know how to break it, they can do that until it works | 07:02 |
| IdleOne | rumpsy: see https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa please read it and click on the link if you are not running karmic for instructions on adding the repository | 07:02 |
| rumpsy | IdleOne: Okay, :) , i follow | 07:02 |
| soreau | afroman: ^^ | 07:03 |
| rumpsy | IdleOne: my point of view is, i recommend using default drivers :) | 07:03 |
| Flannel | soreau: Please follow the advise a number of people have given you in the past few minutes. Breaking people's systems is not support. | 07:03 |
| guaperas | eqaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa | 07:04 |
| guaperas | ola | 07:04 |
| guaperas | qen sta ai | 07:04 |
| IdleOne | rumpsy: yes Default is always the safest way to go. That said if you wish to help test the beta drivers you know where to look now :) | 07:04 |
| soreau | Flannel: With all due respects, I will promote and continue to support the open driver, especially in this case where fglrx does not reportedly work | 07:04 |
| afroman | Flannel: rumpsy; soreau: what do I do? | 07:04 |
| Flannel | soreau: Do not suggest it in a vacuum. Continuing to do so will result in you being removed from this channel. | 07:05 |
| soreau | afroman: <IdleOne> rumpsy: see https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa please read it and click on the link if you are not running karmic for instructions on adding the repository | 07:05 |

| guaperas | and you | 07:06 |
| Flannel | soreau: Please follow the channel guidelines. That's all I'm asking. If you feel you cannot abide by them, please leave. | 07:06 |

| IdleOne | soreau: so is it ok for me to msg you now? | 07:06 |
| guaperas | hello | 07:07 |
| soreau | Flannel: I wont argue with you, because you are right be default but I wont stop suggesting the open radeon driver to get 3D working on r6-7xx cards | 07:07 |
| guaperas | goodbay | 07:07 |
| Flannel | soreau: Again, don't suggest it in a vacuum. Let the user read the page, with the warnings. It's important to understand when you're doing a dangerous thing, so you're prepared when it explodes. | 07:08 |
| afroman | IdleOne; soreau; I get it, it's unstable, my pc might crash | 07:08 |
| InigoMon1oya | You killed my father. | 07:08 |
| InigoMon1oya | Prepare to die | 07:08 |
| guaperas | i am off spaihn | 07:08 |
| soreau | Flannel: Ok, can you explain this vacuum you speak of? I already suggested the ubuntu methods by default and they reportedly are not working | 07:09 |
| IdleOne | soreau: all rww and Flannel are saying is that we should point them to the link so they can read about the potential danger | 07:09 |
| Flannel | soreau: "Run this magic command" is bad. | 07:09 |
| soreau | Flannel: Alright, fairnough(TM) | 07:09 |
| guaperas | yes i does | 07:10 |
| afroman | Threetimes: U there? | 07:10 |
| glick | hey has anyone here gotten clean urls to work with ubuntu and drupal? | 07:10 |
| IdleOne | afroman: yup you got it :) | 07:10 |
| afroman | a few question, how do U recommend removing the fglrx*? | 07:11 |
| afroman | IdleOne: a few questions, how do U recommend removing the fglrx*? | 07:11 |
| afroman | IdleOne: apt-get remove? | 07:11 |
| IdleOne | afroman: yes | 07:12 |
| afroman | IdleOne: or pick one at the time in the synaptic package manager? | 07:12 |
| IdleOne | afroman: you can select them all in synaptic if you like | 07:13 |
| afroman | IdleOne: what about other files related to fglrx? | 07:13 |
| soreau | afroman: If any fglrx driver is installed, the open radeon driver will not be able to do 3D | 07:13 |
| hdon | I'm getting this at boot: "One or more of the mounts listed in /etc/fstab cannot yet be mounted: swap: waiting for UUID-... Press ESC to enter a recovery shell" | 07:13 |
| afroman | IdleOne: shall I leave them or remove them as well? | 07:13 |
| llutz | afroman: sudo aptitude purge '~nfglrx' to purge all packages with "fglrx" in namefield | 07:13 |
| IdleOne | afroman: good question. I think soreau might know better then me | 07:14 |
| IdleOne | or llutz :) | 07:14 |
| afroman | llutz: thx | 07:14 |
| Explore1 | why do i get this error msg? attached scsi generic sg2 type 0 | 07:14 |
| syoliven | can anyone help me? I am looking for documentation to learn how to edit the grub menu on a vista machine, so that vista is the default os. I am a linux novice, and would like to find a source to learn how. | 07:14 |
| afroman | llutz; IdleOne; after the remove, shall I restart the pc? | 07:14 |
| soreau | afroman: If you are intending to use the open driver, you should remove any packages with fglrx in their name | 07:14 |
| llutz | IdleOne: no clue about ati, just wanted to show a way to remove it in one turn | 07:14 |
| IdleOne | afroman: no first install the xorg-edgers then reboot | 07:15 |
| IdleOne | llutz: I don't know ati either to be honest | 07:15 |
| llutz | !grub2 | syoliven | 07:16 |
| ubottu | syoliven: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 07:16 |
| zzzxzzz | hi | 07:16 |
| zzzxzzz | hi | 07:16 |
| syoliven | thank you for the info | 07:16 |
| zzzxzzz | hi | 07:17 |
| ZoeyMarie | So, I don't know when it happened, or why, but when I try alsamixer, I get "function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device" -- it might be since Karmic... Any ideas? I've checked a bunch of places and found nothing. | 07:17 |
| afroman | soreau: what is the open driver? is it better? what about 3d on the open driver? how good is it? and the ccc, does it work on the open driver? does it come with the open driver or do I download it on the side? | 07:17 |
| highhopes | is there any way to shrink the ubuntu partition while still inside of ubuntu (not a live CD)? | 07:18 |
| xae8koo | highhopes: no | 07:18 |
| afroman | IdleOne: soreau: if ccc doesn't work with the open driver is there any other software that can manage what ccc can do? | 07:19 |
| soreau | afroman: 3D on r6-7xx (HD3xxx-HD4xxx) cards have preliminary support in the karmic kernel. You need latest user space components provided by xorg-edgers repo (or compiling from git) for 3D to be active. Work on the driver is going on in the kernel progressively. | 07:20 |
| hdon | my swap space is not mounted! how do i mount my swapspace with uuid as parameter? | 07:20 |
| Sapristi | Hi folks.My newly installed Karmic-system shuts itself down at night. The Power management-dialogue states that this should never happen. What could be the cause for the shutdown, then? | 07:20 |
| jellow | Sapristi: power cuts ? .. look at /var/logs/ | 07:21 |
| llutz | hdon: edit fstab, "sudo swapon -a" | 07:21 |
| zzzxzzz | hi there | 07:21 |
| soreau | afroman: fglrx cannot be installed in any way for the open driver to work. amdcccle is a fglrx-specific component. For the open driver you use driconf | 07:21 |
| hdon | llutz, swapon: cannot find the device for UUID=4dcb7a74-0f73-4f1f-9215-a1dcef29549e | 07:22 |
| llutz | hdon: uuid changed? sudo blkid -g && blkid | 07:23 |
| hdon | llutz, i'm also noticing that under the new ubuntu kernel i recently updated to, my /proc/partitions contains no UUIDs, as i expected it would | 07:23 |
| === distractedgirl is now known as switchgirl | ||
| hdon | llutz, i have encrypted /home enabled. the output of the blkid command you gave me does not include my old swap partition, but it does include a new unfamiliar one, /dev/mapper/cryptswap1 | 07:24 |
| afroman | IdleOne: soreau; why not reboot after the removal? after all that's what's written in the howto | 07:24 |
| llutz | hdon: sudo fdisk -l | 07:25 |
| llutz | hdon: that should show your swap-partition. if it has no uuid (why ever), just use the device-name for fstab | 07:25 |
| glick | lol i follow the written directions but they dont work | 07:25 |
| hdon | llutz, same three partitions i am familiar with http://pastebin.mozilla.org/698576 | 07:26 |
| hdon | llutz, ok, i'll try that | 07:26 |
| afroman | IdleOne: soreau, what about hdmi? is it supported? and sound throu hdmi? do I need to change anything in /etc/X11/xorg.conf? | 07:26 |
| llutz | hdon: sorry no www here :) | 07:26 |
| glick | in apache2.conf file where do i put the allowoverride directive? | 07:28 |
| Garlique | whenever I go to save a document in gedit, the filename is highlighted but when I type, instead of the filename being changed it pops up in a small box in the lower right hand side, how can I disable this behavior? | 07:28 |
| hdon | llutz, swapon: /dev/sda2: read swap header failed: Invalid argument | 07:28 |
| ZoeyMarie | when I try alsamixer, I get "function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device" -- Any ideas? I really need some help with this... | 07:28 |
| Prajwal | ask | can you guys help me with adding custom icons to the menu entries | 07:28 |
| Garlique | ZoeyMarie, are you using intel sound? | 07:29 |
| llutz | hdon: are you sure sda2 is your swap? if yes: sudo mkswap /dev/sda2 && sudo swapon -a | 07:29 |
| hdon | llutz, i'm guessing this cryptswap has been using my swap partition with encryption? but i don't know how to see if it's mounted, or how to convince ubuntu not to have an error are bootup | 07:29 |
| === Bwaah is now known as Bwaah|Sleep | ||

| Garlique | I can in just a moment praj | 07:30 |

| Prajwal | ok thanks Garlique | 07:30 |
| Garlique | but I desperately need to turn off this stupid autosearch behavior | 07:30 |
| llutz | hdon: sorry, i don't use encryption and have no idea what effects is has. | 07:30 |
| Garlique | its soo annoying | 07:30 |
| llutz | it* | 07:30 |
| Garlique | ZoeyMarie, what sound card are you using or is it integrated | 07:30 |
| Prajwal | i made my customized menu entries ...few of them appeared on menu list while few of them dont ....doubt its got to do something with category line of .directory | 07:31 |
| afroman | soreau: still there? | 07:31 |
| afroman | IdleOne: | 07:31 |
| Garlique | Anyone have ideas about how to disable this behavior | 07:32 |
| llutz | hdon: to check if swap is active: "free " | 07:32 |
| Garlique | when you type something in a window it pops up in a box in the lower right hand corner | 07:32 |
| ZoeyMarie | Garlique: It's a SigmaTel one, and it's built into my laptop. | 07:32 |
| Garlique | ZoeyMarie, you might try using the package gamix | 07:32 |
| Garlique | gnome alsa mixer | 07:33 |
| Garlique | it seems to function better than alsamixer | 07:33 |
| afroman | llutz: after the install, do I do anything with /etc/x11/xorg.conf? | 07:33 |
| llutz | afroman: don't ask me anything about graphics/sound, i have no clue about that | 07:33 |
| ZoeyMarie | Garlique: gnome-alsamixer works, but I'm frustrated that alsamixer stopped working--it used to, and I'm worried that it could result in other sound issues (I do a lot of sound recording/production, so I like everything to be working properly) | 07:36 |
| abif | hello people i am new to ubuntu or anyother linux programs | 07:37 |
| abif | anybody can help | 07:37 |
| Garlique | ZoeyMarie, I understand,, im not sure what to say other than ubuntu at least for me is not the absolute best with sound | 07:39 |
| Awesome3000 | abif: what do u need help with | 07:40 |
| Garlique | ZoeyMarie, it seems that unfortunately there are problems constantly creeping in.. Sorry to have to say that and I know its not all that helpful but.. | 07:40 |
| * Awesome3000 wants to help people | 07:41 | |
| Garlique | ZoeyMarie, I have intel sound for example, and it works great in 8.04 but is completely broken in 9.04 | 07:41 |
| calrik | yer I have been having similiar issues think its combination of intel sound and pulse audio | 07:42 |
| Garlique | ZoeyMarie, and not only is the sound broken but issues with the sound-card drivers in 9.04 cause the video to stop working | 07:42 |
| ZoeyMarie | Garlique: well thanks, at least, for trying to help. :) I'll just cross my fingers that I won't have any problems when trying to use JACK or other audio apps. | 07:42 |
| Garlique | ZoeyMarie, Yah just double-test everything first before a live run | 07:42 |
| ZoeyMarie | Garlique: Ooh. I'm glad that I don't have video problems. | 07:43 |
| Garlique | ZoeyMarie, yah it is no fun at all.. I love 9.04 but with video problems and no sound its not that useable lol | 07:43 |
| theadmin | Wudz the update-alternatives thingy for FTP clients? | 07:43 |
| calrik | maybe try 9.10 I have come across some fixes | 07:45 |
| soreau | afroman: What's up? | 07:45 |
| Flannel | theadmin: "ftp" | 07:46 |
| theadmin | Flannel: Graphical ones, I mean %), that is, those that run in X. | 07:47 |
| Flannel | theadmin: I don't know if there is one. Look in /etc/alternatives/ (I don't think I see one) | 07:47 |
| Diverdude | I have downloaded a theme, (This one: http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Humanity-XP?content=118886 ) And I have untared the contents which is a bunch of folders and a index.theme file. How do I then load and activate this theme? | 07:48 |
| Nachturnal | Has anyone managed to get Compiz-fusion working with Xinerama yet? | 07:48 |
| al_ | anyone here with virus/rootkit removal experience for windows? | 07:48 |
| theadmin | al_: it's a linux channel :/ | 07:48 |
| Awesome3000 | Diverdude I think you drag the archive onto the themes window | 07:48 |
| rww | al_: Windows support is in ##windows; if you want to remove viruses from Windows with Ubuntu, look into clamav. | 07:48 |
| Diverdude | Awesome3000, he themes window? | 07:48 |
| llutz | al_: purge all, reinsttall from clean-media | 07:48 |
| al_ | theadmin: yeah I know slightly OT, but hey linux boot disks are used to remove virsues? | 07:48 |
| fresno | I miss Ubuntu , still cant egt my usb modem dongle Huawei 3765 going, using 9.04&9.10 still no good need to load some .deb's how do I go about it ? or how to share the connection from this old xp box ? | 07:48 |
| theadmin | al_: AFAIR it's quite hard. But you can try to install Avast! Linux Home, which will remove windows viruses | 07:49 |
| spartan7 | Also avast is good as an antivirus | 07:49 |
| Garlique | Whenever I try to save a file, the filename is automatically highlighted but when I type instead of changing the filename, the text I am typing appears in a box in the lower right hand corner how can I disable this? | 07:49 |
| al_ | theadmin: yeah this one is persistent, I dont know where it hides, bit everything I throw at it, seems to stall | 07:50 |

| GreenDance | Hi | 07:50 |
| papna | I'm using Hardy with KDE and - though in Gnome I have the native resolution of my monitor - in KDE it is not an option. I am using proprietary ATI drivers for my X1300. How can I get this resolution available to me? | 07:50 |
| theadmin | I can't figure it from reading manpages, stuff looks too complex | 07:50 |
| llutz | al_: purge all, reinstall from clean-media. you cannot be sure to have cleaned an infected system, you cannot trust it anymore | 07:51 |
| GreenDance | does anyone know how to retrieve lost data? | 07:51 |
| theadmin | GreenDance: Lost as in...? | 07:51 |
| llutz | GreenDance: restore from backup | 07:51 |
| al_ | llutz: yeah, maybe | 07:52 |
| dermawan | hello | 07:52 |
| * Awesome3000 hopes you have a back-up | 07:52 | |
| al_ | llutz: sometimes I think it can be safely cleaned | 07:52 |
| Garlique | Someone must have some idea about how to disable this behavior?? | 07:52 |
| dermawan | where are u | 07:52 |
| llutz | al_: you cannot be sure, so "no" | 07:52 |
| GreenDance | theadmin, well what happened, i moved some files into another directory, then switched off my external HDD, the next morning (today) i switched on my external HDD and the files were gone, but the disk space is still being used by the files eventhough i can't see the files | 07:52 |
| llutz | al_: unless you count on the "marketing bulls...t" of those antivir-companies | 07:53 |
| SomeRandomDude | anyone know how to dualboot Ubuntu 9.10 and Kubuntu 9.10 | 07:54 |
| theadmin | SomeRandomDude: Just install the KDE in Ubuntu (or GNOME in Kubuntu), what's the big deal? | 07:54 |
| SomeRandomDude | theadmin i dont wanna do that | 07:55 |
| theadmin | SomeRandomDude: Well, if you install the second os on a separate partition, everything should go well. | 07:55 |
| SomeRandomDude | not after the problems i had installing Xubuntu desktop in ubuntu | 07:55 |
| llutz | SomeRandomDude: install both, let one install grub into partition, not into mbr, and chainload then | 07:55 |
| SomeRandomDude | i installed it on a second hdd | 07:55 |
| SomeRandomDude | ubuntu installed first then i installed kubuntu and clicked do not install bootloader | 07:56 |
| theadmin | SomeRandomDude: Xubuntu-desktop huh? is it any good by the way? Wanted to try but not sure whether it's good | 07:56 |
| SomeRandomDude | theadmin i wouldnt recomend installing inside ubuntu | 07:56 |
| Awesome3000 | theadmin I use xfce and i like it | 07:56 |
| SomeRandomDude | it gets cluttered | 07:56 |
| SomeRandomDude | and hijacks boot and login screens | 07:57 |
| SomeRandomDude | so my question is how do i add Kubuntu to grub? | 07:57 |
| Awesome3000 | SomeRandomDude just install KDE not the kubuntu-desktop | 07:57 |
| NotTooSmart | how can a hard-drive have 200 for read errors whic his indicated as worst, and still pass a smart test using smartctl on ubuntu 9.10? | 07:57 |
| SomeRandomDude | Awesome3000 i already went with my option | 07:58 |
| SomeRandomDude | its installed | 07:58 |
| Awesome3000 | NotTooSmart S.M.A.R.T. limits are set by the drive | 07:58 |
| l1nUx1z3r | im curious about slackware, does anyone have experience on it? | 07:58 |
| SomeRandomDude | i just need to add it to the boot menu | 07:58 |
| NotTooSmart | Awesome3000: huh? | 07:58 |
| theadmin | l1nUx1z3r: Not a place to ask actually, you should try their channel, not sure what it is though | 07:58 |
| SomeRandomDude | gah | 07:59 |
| llutz | l1nUx1z3r: about 15 yrs ago, yes. but better ask in their channel | 07:59 |
| l1nUx1z3r | theadmin, ok, thanks | 07:59 |
| l1nUx1z3r | llutz, where's the channel? | 07:59 |
| Awesome3000 | NotTooSmart So the drive has no limit on read errors | 07:59 |
| SomeRandomDude | my clock says it 7:57 when its actually 2:00 o.O | 07:59 |
| llutz | l1nUx1z3r: #slackware | 07:59 |
| NotTooSmart | Awesome3000: then what section is important? | 07:59 |
| theadmin | SomeRandomDude: Modify the time %) | 08:00 |
| l1nUx1z3r | llutz, thanks | 08:00 |
| Awesome3000 | Diverdude System/prefrences/apperance | 08:00 |
| Awesome3000 | NotTooSmart 200 read errors will mean the drive is screwed, but it will pass the test because of no limits | 08:00 |
| NotTooSmart | Awesome3000: ok, but the drive works perfectly!/ | 08:01 |
| SomeRandomDude | theadmin anyway to automaticly get time from a server? | 08:01 |
| Awesome3000 | NotTooSmart Well don't store anything importent on it? :) | 08:01 |

| SomeRandomDude | whats Xinerama? | 08:02 |
| mneptok | SomeRandomDude: apt-cache show xinerama | 08:03 |

| numberGrey | what is a good tool to do server speed tests? to clarify, I have a site setup (the same website on both servers) and I want to test the speed and compare the two to see whats faster. | 08:03 |
| Nachturnal | Xinerama facilitates the use of multiple monitors as if they were each their own workspace. | 08:03 |
| Awesome3000 | !xinerama | 08:03 |
| ubottu | xinerama is an extension to !X to use two or more physical displays as one large virtual display. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo - See also !DualHead | 08:03 |
| retry | read errors aren't as scary as bad sectors | 08:03 |
| retry | numberGrey, faster how? | 08:04 |
| retry | raw page rendering or ability to serve more concurrent pages and totals over the same timespan? | 08:04 |
| Nachturnal | Unfortunately I had to switch from Twinview to Xinerama when I switched from two monitors to three. But that broke Compiz-fusion. | 08:04 |
| retry | either way try siege | 08:04 |
| retry | ^ numberGrey | 08:04 |
| numberGrey | retry: raw page rendering | 08:04 |
| numberGrey | ok | 08:05 |
| numberGrey | thanks | 08:05 |

| theadmin | retry: some file upload service, it sometimes jumps randomly | 08:13 |
| theadmin | rumpsy: GNOME | 08:13 |
| Screamo_Smurf | zenlunatic why would that make it slower then ubuntu? | 08:14 |
| retry | the thing with stock ubuntu is there's a lot of applets to turn off to free up some ram | 08:14 |
| * Awesome3000 leaves sadly | 08:14 | |

| retry | pinPoint, check your routing table you might be trying to gateway out two places at once | 09:04 |

| Diverdude | I have a harddisk installed in my laptop. It annoys me a bit that every time i turn on the computer I have to remount it by going to places->myHDD and put in a password. Is there any way I can automate this procedure so that the HD is autmatically mounted at startup? | 09:04 |
| retry | pinPoint what is set to that? your NIC? | 09:04 |
| ActionParsnip | diverdude: add it in /etc/fstab | 09:05 |
| pinPoint | retry: im on win7 :) | 09:05 |
| retry | oh thats your router | 09:05 |
| airtonix | Parsi, typically in my limited knowledge of how that works is that ubuntu needs to be installed on the "master" drive when installing for grub to provide those extra entries in grub | 09:05 |
| pinPoint | its alternate manual | 09:05 |
| retry | so why are you in here? | 09:05 |
| pinPoint | i was talking about the dd-wrt | 09:05 |
| Screamo_Smurf | :/ | 09:05 |
| ActionParsnip | pinpoint: win7 isn't supported here | 09:05 |
| pinPoint | so i poured some issues with my router | 09:05 |
| pinPoint | I kno | 09:05 |
| darkd | hi guys | 09:05 |
| retry | oh | 09:05 |
| pinPoint | i was also addressing my res issue | 09:05 |
| MaSSaSLaYeR | What are the necessery required records in, so the ones you have to have in /etc/bind/zones/ the .db files? | 09:05 |
| retry | so irc drops off and you think your router is flaking out? | 09:06 |
| retry | you could always power cycle it | 09:06 |
| pinPoint | retry: actually yes | 09:06 |
| Diverdude | ActionParsnip, So what do i write in fstab file? | 09:06 |
| darkd | Any one have Backtrakc lesson ??? | 09:06 |
| retry | also irc is fairly sensitive to sudden packet loss more so than say web browsing | 09:06 |
| ActionParsnip | !fstab | diverdude | 09:06 |
| pinPoint | retry: because when I was wired it used to be fine. | 09:06 |

| pinPoint | even weeks | 09:06 |
| retry | wifi is very likely culpable | 09:07 |
| pinPoint | its a wireless bridged network to wired. | 09:07 |
| retry | ok well if the wireless signal is going on you that could be any number of causes of interference | 09:07 |
| retry | microwave ovens, cell phones...poor line of site to router | 09:07 |
| retry | too many other APs sharing your channel | 09:07 |
| pinPoint | the wrt54gl is receiving internet wirelessly from another box then it distributes to local comps via ethernet | 09:07 |
| retry | do other computers lose signal? | 09:08 |
| pinPoint | i cannot tell, it seems toooo small to notice without running irc | 09:08 |
| ActionParsnip | pinpoint: is suggest you ask in #networking too | 09:08 |
| retry | btw i meant cordless phones not cell phones | 09:08 |
| pinPoint | the other comps are either web servers, htpc, etc | 09:08 |

| airtonix | pinPoint, maybe you should try hvaing them all stream video without any buffering? | 09:08 |
| retry | pinPoint, just do some non stop pinging on every box | 09:08 |
| ActionParsnip | explore1: its chmod not chmode | 09:09 |
| retry | and when you notice irc drop check the others for packet loss | 09:09 |

| retry | Screamo_Smurf, did you install them on two partitions on same physical drive? | 09:14 |
| Screamo_Smurf | no | 09:14 |

| pinPoint | madcat1990: wth is that desktop of yours? | 09:14 |
| Screamo_Smurf | to different hdds | 09:14 |

| Diverdude | ActionParsnip, ok...does this look about right: UUID="1C66D87A66D855DC" /media/TrayData auto defaults 0 2 ? | 09:14 |
| retry | because you'll have to setup grub on the second hard drive | 09:15 |
| madcat1990 | @airtonix : I was watching How I met your mother and was on firefox browsing, I have compiz on moderate | 09:15 |
| Screamo_Smurf | what do you mean? | 09:15 |
| madcat1990 | @pinPoint : Gnome, with docky | 09:15 |
| ActionParsnip | screamo_smurf: grub2 is the same in noth, you will need to edit the config files so that the ones pointing to one partition say ubuntu and the others say kubuntu | 09:15 |
| retry | well each HDD has to have it's MBR setup with grub | 09:15 |
| retry | so that if one disk fails you can still boot | 09:15 |
| airtonix | madcat1990, so you didn't do anything like update video drivers without restarting ? | 09:15 |
| retry | sorta like when you do raid | 09:15 |
| ActionParsnip | screamo_smurf: the fact they are on different pphysical drives is moot | 09:15 |
| retry | anyway then you need to do two grub entries | 09:15 |
| Screamo_Smurf | madcat1990 that happens to me all the time when im running wine | 09:15 |
| madcat1990 | @airtonix : last update I did to them was when I installed ubuntu, since then, this happens randomly, after a while without restarting | 09:15 |
| airtonix | madcat1990, also at this point it would be useful if you mention the make and model of video card you are using within your initial help request | 09:16 |
| Screamo_Smurf | retry i think i wanna go with that | 09:16 |
| retry | i mean you can surely just boot off one disk to either distro | 09:16 |
| madcat1990 | @Screamo_smurf : Is it a bug with wine then? | 09:16 |
| retry | but if that disk fails you can't get to either distro | 09:16 |
| Screamo_Smurf | idk | 09:16 |
| ActionParsnip | screamo_smurf: read the config files. the ones pointing to the ubuntu partition will need editting to say ubuntu. the grub2 docs will tell you whats what | 09:16 |

| demongt | i had been using facebook for some time with no trouble now when i do those flash games i get a file crashing | 09:32 |
| praetor | i have flash 10 installed and java updates | 09:32 |
| madcat1990 | @airtonix : Since mine is a 8400M GS renamed to 9300 <<.... might not have problems | 09:32 |
| jerico | anyone know of a way to google something about linux without getting a bunch of unsolved forum postings. | 09:32 |
| retry | Screamo_Smurf, is that where that exists now? | 09:32 |
| Screamo_Smurf | yes | 09:32 |
| pinPoint | retry: http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Image:Standard_bridge_large.jpg | 09:33 |
| retry | Screamo_Smurf, you dont have /boot on separate partitions do you? | 09:33 |
| Screamo_Smurf | now i need to add kubuntu to it | 09:33 |
| airtonix | madcat1990, you can only try i guess. but yo ualso have the option of installing the release level binary drivers (which is at version 190.5) | 09:33 |
| pinPoint | zamba: http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Image:Standard_bridge_large.jpg | 09:33 |
| Screamo_Smurf | :/ | 09:33 |
| madcat1990 | @airtonix : Ok, if it happens again, I'll use the beta drivers. | 09:33 |
| Explore1 | export DISPLAY:0 | 09:34 |
| Explore1 | bash: export: `DISPLAY:0': not a valid identifier | 09:34 |
| airtonix | madcat1990, remember these are only suggestions... i am correct that you are using the nvidia drivers from offical ubuntu repo ? | 09:34 |
| Explore1 | wht is wrong in this? | 09:34 |
| madcat1990 | @airtonix : Yes, the latest version, according to the restricted driver manager | 09:34 |
| airtonix | Explore1, try this maybe : export DISPLAY = ":0" | 09:34 |
| Screamo_Smurf | retry yes | 09:34 |
| Screamo_Smurf | even tho i told it not to install grub when i instsalled kubuntu | 09:35 |
| Explore1 | export DISPLAY = ":0" bash: export: `=': not a valid identifier bash: export: `:0': not a valid identifier | 09:35 |
| airtonix | madcat1990, before you try the binary drivers from nvidia first uninstall the ubuntu nvidia drivers you have there | 09:35 |
| pinPoint | I installed some crazy nvidia reversed drivers... | 09:35 |
| airtonix | Explore1, sorry no spaces between the "=" : export DISPLAY=":0" | 09:35 |
| madcat1990 | @airtonix : through the restricted driver manager? | 09:35 |
| pinPoint | I was just shocked that there was no nvidia support natively. :/ | 09:36 |
| airtonix | madcat1990, i imagine (it's been a long time since i;ve used that thing) | 09:36 |
| retry | Screamo_Smurf, you probably have grub setup correctly for each hard drive already | 09:36 |
| retry | so you could mount the second distros drive, and just copy the grub conf over | 09:36 |
| Screamo_Smurf | when i trun my pc on it boots right into ubuntu | 09:36 |
| madcat1990 | airtonix : hehe, I actually like ubuntu's simplifications | 09:36 |
| PKR1 | why are there so many people in here, whats so good about ubuntu please explain to me | 09:37 |
| retry | Screamo_Smurf, right because the BIOS is booting off your first drive | 09:37 |
| airtonix | madcat1990, yes and the ppa that nvidia provide now is a good change | 09:37 |
| retry | Screamo_Smurf, just out of curiosity you should switch drive boot order in bios and see if kubu boots up | 09:37 |
| madcat1990 | @airtonix : I'm going to bookmark that link of yours, thanks for the help :) | 09:37 |
| ardchoille | Has anyone else had this problem? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1386791 | 09:37 |
| retry | if it does, I am sure you can just cross copy the grub confs | 09:37 |
| Screamo_Smurf | retry ugh...... | 09:37 |
| retry | or you can just mount the second drive and browse for the grub conf for kubuntu | 09:38 |
| Screamo_Smurf | i did | 09:38 |
| retry | and glean what you need from there | 09:38 |
| Screamo_Smurf | but | 09:38 |
| retry | or did it not install grub? | 09:38 |
| Screamo_Smurf | i told it not to | 09:38 |
| retry | right ok | 09:38 |
| Screamo_Smurf | but i think it did | 09:38 |
| retry | well you should be able to confirm pretty easily | 09:38 |
| madcat1990 | @airtonix : By the way, any good tutorials you can link me to about bridging connections? | 09:38 |
| retry | go to /etc/grub in your second disk after you mount it | 09:39 |
| retry | /second/disk/mount/point/etc/grub | 09:39 |
| retry | if that exists | 09:39 |
| retry | you should have a usable grub conf you can copy the boot lines from | 09:39 |
| Screamo_Smurf | i only have /etc/grub.d | 09:39 |
| pinPoint | i'm gonna change some IPs so I might go silent while I disconnect but my screen will remain. | 09:40 |
| retry | Screamo_Smurf, is it empty? | 09:40 |
| Screamo_Smurf | no | 09:40 |
| retry | Screamo_Smurf, see this is the newfangled grub that I am not familiar with | 09:41 |
| Screamo_Smurf | 7 files in there | 09:41 |
| joh | Hmm, is it possible to temporarily set a read-only flag on a directory? | 09:41 |
| joh | (I'm in the process of moving /home from one disk to another, but /home is currently not on a separate partition) | 09:41 |
| PKR1 | what do I use ubuntu for? | 09:41 |
| retry | if you just had a nice simple /boot/grub/menu.lst this would be a lot simpler | 09:41 |
| hackeur21 | bonjour . ou est le canal francais ? | 09:41 |

| acuster | llutz, thanks, but what does it mean, that the package was generated by debian and works as is on ubuntu so it's passed on to us? | 09:47 |
| Mar7 | hey | 09:47 |
| retry | acuster, a lot of ubuntu packages are from upstream debian | 09:47 |
| llutz | acuster: i think so | 09:47 |
| retry | ubuntu would not exist without debian | 09:48 |
| retry | debian is the rock to which ubuntu is anchored | 09:48 |
| acuster | right, but I thought they would be recompiled/repackaged | 09:48 |
| madcat1990 | @airtonix : :O! Thank you! You sir, are awesome! | 09:48 |
| retry | i guess not everything requires that | 09:48 |

| retry | you could try that | 11:49 |
| zagabar | retry: Oh, thats true. :S I wonder why they didn't get cleared. | 11:49 |

| Screamo_Smurf | Grrrrrr | 11:50 |
| livingdaylight | retry, it's what the google link you pointed me is suggesting as a solution - or do you know otherwise/ simpler? | 11:50 |
| retry | Screamo_Smurf, do this while you're still online apt-get -s instlal libuniconf4.6 | 11:50 |
| Screamo_Smurf | how am i suposed to find out lmao | 11:50 |
| retry | Screamo_Smurf, do this while you're still online apt-get -s install libuniconf4.6 | 11:50 |
| livingdaylight | retry, in the example he did not use sudo | 11:50 |
| retry | livingdaylight, try it anyway | 11:51 |
| Screamo_Smurf | it should be already installed on here | 11:51 |
| retry | if something running as root is culpable, you wont see it otherwise | 11:51 |

I think mine does not work well, since it always shows the cpu temperture to be super-high, like 90° even if im not running many processes itz always super-high and it continuosly warn me about it, itz annoying... anyone experienced a similar issue and solved it? maybe itz about settings | 11:52 |
| livingdaylight | retry, would you look at this for me please? http://pastebin.com/m3479d3f3 | 11:52 |
| retry | actually dude there's an easier way | 11:52 |
| retry | apt-cache can tell you any packages deps | 11:52 |
| retry | you're using chrome browser? | 11:53 |
| livingdaylight | yes | 11:53 |
| retry | what is TweetDeck? | 11:53 |
| zoran_the_great | hi all :p | 11:53 |
| retry | you know you might try firefox instead of chrome and see if the sound issue goes away | 11:53 |
| livingdaylight | retry, Tweetdeck is client for twitter | 11:53 |
| Screamo_Smurf | how do i use apt-cache? | 11:53 |
| retry | because chrome is immature on windows and even more so on linux | 11:53 |
| Screamo_Smurf | chrome sucks | 11:53 |
| retry | Screamo_Smurf type apt-cache | 11:54 |
| zoran_the_great | chrome fails for me on ubuntu and no adblock plus | 11:54 |
| livingdaylight | Screamo_Smurf, i find it is very fast and light | 11:54 |
| retry | it should output cmd options | 11:54 |
| retry | yeah no noscript or adblock+ sucks | 11:54 |
| livingdaylight | zoran_the_great, i believe it has a built in adblocker - ive not had issues with ads anyhow | 11:54 |
| retry | I will not surf the www without noscript anymore | 11:54 |
| retry | i have run into so many probs with chrome | 11:54 |
| livingdaylight | what's noscript? | 11:54 |
| retry | on windows it messes up the GUI | 11:54 |
| === Mohammad is now known as Guest77172 | ||
| retry | noscript is a whitelisting tool for js/plugins | 11:55 |
| zoran_the_great | hmm it still gave me some annoying ads, but maybe i did something wrong, if it had adblock plus and some other plugins i'd totally switch to chrome | 11:55 |
| retry | by default every website is blocked | 11:55 |
| retry | and you just whitelist what you want | 11:55 |
| livingdaylight | problem is FF loves CPU gets my laptop HOT | 11:55 |
| Screamo_Smurf | i use opera | 11:55 |
| retry | tis' great because 3rd party sites are separate so you can whitelist the site nad keep the ad servers and other logging crap blocked | 11:55 |
| retry | i just installed the latest opera | 11:56 |
| Screamo_Smurf | retry im not understanding it | 11:56 |
| livingdaylight | Screamo_Smurf, opera is kewl but not all flash based stuff seems to work well in it | 11:56 |
| ukore | how can i make right click paste like the middle click in the terminal in gnome? | 11:56 |
| Screamo_Smurf | works for me | 11:56 |
| retry | it's sleek and pretty but it's lacking in features/extensions that i find essential | 11:56 |
| retry | basically all browsers are but FF | 11:56 |
| retry | livingdaylight, that's true I have problems getting opera to work with this minimal flash player I like to use for audio | 11:56 |

| retry | Screamo_Smurf, $ apt-cache showpkg libuniconf4.6 | 11:58 |
| retry | do that | 11:58 |

| rtfm | erm | 13:01 |
| Mrokii | ob3r0n: Yep, mozilla-daily is right (as Dr_Willis suggested). But you should be aware that often the versions (at least for me) aren't as stable as the one that came with Karmic. | 13:01 |
| Parsi | riegersn: oh! mine freezes with compis enabled | 13:01 |
| subsu | rtfm: it's another 'improvement' from the xorg team | 13:01 |
| Mrokii | ob3r0n: Quite often I had crashes (which may also be a problem of unstable-extensions, though). | 13:01 |
| ob3r0n | strange rep =) hm.. how long for canonical will add it in karmic? | 13:01 |

| lopan | Hey everyone. My computer (ubuntu 9.10 64bit w/ 2 drives in raid1) was hanging so I gave it a reboot. After grub, the computer boots to busybox / initramfs. The top of the screen says "mount: mounting /dev/disk/by-uuid/bunch-of-characters on /root failed: invalied argument. | 13:03 |
| subsu | rtfm: that's why I use the "'", generate one with Xorg -configure | 13:03 |
| lopan | I have tried to repair grub that that apparently did not do the trick. | 13:03 |
| lopan | I have also tried booting to the second drive in the raid and I get the same behavior. | 13:03 |
| subsu | rtfm: and move it to /etc/X11/xorg.conf as usual. | 13:03 |

| ob3r0n | i mean programms that i dont use | 13:18 |

| ubottu | Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php | 13:18 |
| Dr_Willis | ob3r0n: never really seen a feature that keeps track of how much things are used. | 13:18 |

| noXandOs | when I try to access my samba share from windows it asks me for a password... wth? | 13:18 |
| ob3r0n | dr_willis what you mean? | 13:19 |
| Dr_Willis | noXandOs: set the users samba password with 'sudo smbpasswd -a username' | 13:19 |
| Dr_Willis | ob3r0n: ive never seen that feature.. not sure it exists at all | 13:19 |
| ob3r0n | ok | 13:19 |
| Dr_Willis | ob3r0n: and undder windows I recall that feature being totally WRONG most of the time anyway :) | 13:20 |
| juro | hi, I have updated Firebug recently and now when I click on the Firebug icon it kills Firefox | 13:20 |
| nefast | Well, the thing is, Dr_Willis, I tried all the things they mentioned in the threads regarding sound, but none worked. | 13:20 |
| nefast | Well, one this worked | 13:20 |
| indus | lopan, ok the address in grub menu is to be checked then,i mean the kernel | 13:20 |
| nefast | But only once. | 13:20 |
| Dr_Willis | nefast: yep. its an old game.. and sound can be an issue,. | 13:20 |
| noXandOs | sudo smbpassword -a username? umm | 13:20 |
| noXandOs | i am confused | 13:20 |
| nefast | The sound worked perfectly in 9.04, iirc, though | 13:20 |
| Dr_Willis | noXandOs: yes. that gives the user a samba password. | 13:20 |
| Parsi | grub.cfg confused me! I want to change default choose | 13:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Or you could set up the shared to be accessabel by a guest/anyone I imagine | 13:21 |
| lopan | http://pastebin.com/d7319e64d is my first grub line for 2.6.31-17-generic kernel | 13:21 |
| noXandOs | ok so cany suer can use that pw? | 13:21 |
| noXandOs | any* | 13:21 |
| Dr_Willis | noXandOs: no.. its for that one user | 13:21 |
| jiohdi | parsi, make all changes under etc/grub/custom... not grub.cfg | 13:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Theres MUCH more to samba then what people notice. the right click, share a directory. is a relatively new feature to gnome | 13:21 |
| noXandOs | i did it like that but | 13:22 |
| lopan | It is weird because after I tell grub to boot, the ubuntu image comes up like ubuntu is booting, then it goes to the busybox | 13:22 |
| Dr_Willis | noXandOs: at one time it was commionplace to share the whole /home/username structure. | 13:22 |
| infidel | is there a ubuntu server channel? | 13:22 |
| noXandOs | i am not understanding this user stuff | 13:22 |
| Parsi | jiohdi: is there any GUI tool to change default choose? | 13:22 |

| Dr_Willis | noXandOs: each user has a password.. and each user CAN have a samba password also.. the 2 are not the same | 13:22 |
| bbelt16ag | ok that is it why in the heck cant i type fast. everytime try to type fast on e terminal or elsewheeit looks like tis ! | 13:22 |

| bbelt16ag | wth | 13:22 |
| bbelt16ag | how do x this crud! | 13:22 |
| jiohdi | parsi, not yet that I know of... but there is a very good tutorial on youtube that walks you through changing grub2 | 13:22 |
| bbelt16ag | its makinge mad. | 13:23 |

| FloodBot3 | bbelt16ag: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 13:23 |
| noXandOs | ok but how does it know which user i am setting the pw.. i never made a user on windows 7 :/ | 13:23 |
| noXandOs | i dunno i am lost | 13:23 |
| bbelt16ag | sigh | 13:23 |
| Dr_Willis | noXandOs: you set the LINUX users samba password on the linux box. | 13:23 |
| wirechief | bbelt16ag are you using a laptop ? if so which make and model ? | 13:23 |
| Dr_Willis | noXandOs: this has nothing to do with windows's passwords.. you could make them all the same so its easier to rember | 13:23 |
| bbelt16ag | no | 13:24 |
| bbelt16ag | its a custom bild. | 13:24 |
| bbelt16ag | build | 13:24 |
| noXandOs | ok | 13:24 |
| bbelt16ag | my keboardis fin. | 13:24 |
| bbelt16ag | its ubuntu | 13:24 |
| bbelt16ag | desktop | 13:24 |
| Dr_Willis | noXandOs: i normally give the linux users and window user the same username and password on my home lans. makes it easier | 13:24 |
| jiohdi | parsi, you can update grub.cfg however if you have any program that changes anything in grub it will be overwritten... that is why you have to use etc/grub/custom files and then grub-update | 13:24 |
| noXandOs | ok maybe i am just not understand the command you gave me | 13:26 |
| Parsi | jiohdi: really it made me crazy, can you help with this? | 13:26 |
| noXandOs | is that just setting a pw | 13:26 |
| jiohdi | parsi, what is the problem? | 13:26 |
| Dr_Willis | noXandOs: it gives the Linux user a SAMBA specific password. to allow them to connect to samba shares on the linux box. | 13:26 |
| bbelt16ag | guhhhhh | 13:26 |
| bbelt16ag | how do i fix this | 13:26 |

| Daremonai | Hello, after i turned off my pc, and turned it back on, i got the following errors on bootup: link is slow to respond, please be patient (ready=0) - COMRESET failed (errno=-16) - for one of my SATA drives, I'm running Ubuntu-9.10, the drive is: ST31000340AS | 14:05 |
| JackTIM | I was also getting the RandR error. Do you know anything about that? I've looked up a few things on the internet, and it all points to xine from nvidia... but I can't make any sense of the config file to tell if that is my problem or not. | 14:06 |
| MrNaz | are there any issues running amd64 ubuntu on intel atom systems ? | 14:07 |
| MidnighToker | hi people. i have a seriously old networking question: trying to get ubuntu to connect to a netbios share on a dos 5.x box :-D | 14:07 |
| erUSUL | MrNaz: if the atom supports 64 bits i do not see why it would be any issues | 14:07 |
| jiohdi | mrNaz, other than amd and intel chip sets are slightly different... which could cause a problem | 14:07 |

| MrNaz | perhaps it'd be safer to just use i386 | 14:08 |
| erUSUL | jiohdi: MrNaz not true. there is no isuue. amd64 is compatible with both amd64 and the intel implementation | 14:08 |
| MidnighToker | MrNaz, if you want 64bit then amd64 is the way to go for intel/amd/other | 14:08 |
| jiohdi | MrNaz, I am using UNR on an intel atom, runs great | 14:09 |

| erUSUL | neure: easiest way is to add the user to the admin group | 14:19 |
| erUSUL | neure: sudo adduser $USER admin | 14:19 |

| LjL | which is considered the canonical way to let people use sudo, really | 14:20 |
| Daremonai | beli, i donno what 'device' to give as parameter to hdparm, /dev/sdg1 doesn't exist in /dev/ | 14:20 |
| neure | ok | 14:20 |
| osirisx11 | i think i am hitting some swap keyboard layout hotkey? | 14:20 |
| neure | now sudo works, but it keeps asking for password | 14:20 |
| LjL | sudo is supposed to ask for a password | 14:21 |
| neure | afaik i can configure sudo so that it doesnt ask for password for specific user. how do i do that? | 14:21 |
| LjL | by adding the NOPASSWD option to /etc/sudoers, i believe. "man sudoers" should explain in more detail | 14:21 |

| Pici | neure: Remember to use visudo if you are modifying /etc/sudoers or else you can break sudo | 14:22 |
| neure | apparently there is also group sudo | 14:23 |
| neure | so instead of adding my user to admin group, i could have added the user to sudo group? | 14:23 |

| P67 | kanzie: When you're configuring ufw (interface on top of IPTABLES) you first need to drop everything. Then allowing one drop. otherwise you need to stream iptables rules in to it | 14:47 |
| Guest32608 | jrib: don't get me wrong, I'm quite happy to use different stuff and don't even like itunes but It's getting to the point where its gunna be simplest to just give him what he wants | 14:47 |

| riktking | SPLIT!!!!!!!! | 14:48 |
| kanzie | P67: so its not possible to lock everything but ssh from ssh in ufw? | 14:48 |
| P67 | by manually making rules, yes. | 14:49 |
| P67 | sudo ufw allow proto tcp from 192.168.0.2 to any port 22 | 14:49 |
| erUSUL | Threetimes: maybe you have to reinstall the fglrx drivers ? | 14:49 |
| P67 | or just simply using ufw allow 22 | 14:49 |
| rosa | ola | 14:50 |
| xektrum | is I install ubuntu as a persistent liveusb and I allready have a partition labeled casper-rw, will ubuntu use that one for persistence | 14:50 |
| xektrum | ? | 14:50 |
| P67 | Just remember that ufw is an interface on top of IPTABLES. using that will serve you better and will allow you to drop all entries except 22 by manually adding it. | 14:50 |
| riktking | is the split over yet?? | 14:51 |
| P67 | Though, when using iptables/ufw. you need to drop everything first before allowing a port. hence i said that it's best to do it locally | 14:51 |

| P67 | kanzie: No it's not. if you didn't preconfigure the firewall every port possible will probably be open. I'm merely trying to help you. if you wish to throw the firewall ports shut, IPtables functions as to block everything first. Then manually allowing a port.

| Threetimes | And is this true: "...the official fglrx driver. This driver will not work under Karmic Koala, because it needs a Linux kernel of version 2.6.28, whereas Karmic is built on Linux kernel 2.6.31." | 15:03 |
| knxville | What program should I use for remote desktop between two ubuntu 9.10 computers? | 15:03 |

| blakkheim | knxville: ssh | 15:03 |
| militant | so remote desktop viewer is slooow on screen updates on a machine that's on my own network. and won't leave fullscreen ... i don't use compiz either. and terminal server client will scroll down but not up. i'm a bit stuck? | 15:04 |
| P67 | If it's still there. remove it using dpkg's remove function. It might still have config files somewhere. | 15:04 |
| Threetimes | P67: you mean gdm? | 15:04 |
| P67 | No. the driver specifically Threetimes | 15:04 |

| ircuser | SomeRandomDude: Windows 7 (actually XP first then Win 7) and then Ubuntu. I did overwrite XP partition with Ubuntu. | 15:09 |
| P67 | Threetimes: try getting a new version and installing the .bin again. perhaps that'll fix it. Otherwise i don't know. It just seems your driver doesn't kick in | 15:09 |
| SomeRandomDude | ubuntu 9.10? | 15:09 |
| riktking | ircuser, did u set ur partitions up??? | 15:09 |
| P67 | Threetimes: you could try a dpkg-reconfigure on the X11 too. That might work aswell. I'm not too Experienced with ATi under linux. | 15:09 |
| Threetimes | P67: I'll just re-run the installer, maybe it has an uninstall or repair option like most windows installers :D | 15:09 |

| erUSUL | kishore: lazarus is a graphical ide so everything should be pretty obvious | 15:21 |
| OiPenguin_IK | erUSUL: Keeping the old seems the easiest solution. Will it work without any problems or do I need to do "something". Apart from reinstall programs, of course. | 15:21 |
| SomeRandomDude | tolpico what exactly do you mean?* | 15:21 |
| erUSUL | !clone | OiPenguin_IK | 15:22 |
| ubottu | OiPenguin_IK: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate | 15:22 |
| kishore | erUSUL, thank you... | 15:22 |
| tolpico | SomeRandomDude, I mean, in windows one doesn't need to give much attention on moving the mouse exactly over the X button, we can just carelessly drag to the extreme top right and click it. But in ubuntu clicking at extreme top right doesnt close window | 15:22 |

| SomeRandomDude | idk im on kubuntu :D | 15:23 |
| tolpico | SomeRandomDude, it works that way in kubuntu? | 15:23 |
| riktking | knxville, yeah i have my server at home on a dsl connection and can log straight it with SSH/sshfs. its relativly simple to setup i think there is a package some where. | 15:23 |
| OiPenguin_IK | erUSUL. A /home working as it should with the reinstalled system | 15:24 |

| erUSUL | OiPenguin_IK: if you make a new home just copy the files over when you are done (or move home to the old /home partition when you are done) | 15:25 |
| riktking | knxville, u need to port forward port 5900 for the VNC. its VERRRRYYYY slow unless you have a very good internet connection | 15:25 |
| riktking | knxville, u then log in to ur localhost:5900 on ur vnc and you can see the other desktop | 15:26 |
| SomeRandomDude | i like teamveiwer :((( | 15:26 |
| knxville | riktking, Alright, well, when i'm using teamviewer from windows -> windows, it's pretty fast. | 15:26 |
| riktking | knxville, ok i assume thats a form of VNC | 15:26 |
| OiPenguin_IK | erUSUL: I prefer to keep the old /home which from how I undestood you is not a problem? | 15:26 |
| SomeRandomDude | knxville i got teamveiwer to open with wine.. but i didnt test it | 15:26 |
| tolpico | SomeRandomDude, Well, then I think I will just move on to it, because I am extremely frustrated about this, So to upgrade to kubuntu I just get it from synaptic and let it download everything right? Thanks | 15:26 |
| knxville | riktking, i'll try it.. | 15:26 |
| SomeRandomDude | wellll | 15:26 |
| riktking | knxville, u used port forwarding before? she wil have to set up the other end | 15:27 |
| knxville | SomeRandomDude, yeah okay, thats a neat solution aswell.. | 15:27 |
| === abc is now known as Guest76530 | ||

| _2 | !sound | 16:46 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 16:46 |

| _2 | CVirus or allow them only sudo access to the mount/eject command | 16:48 |

| _2 | something like /etc/sudoers line: username ALL:(ALL) NOPASSWD: /bin/mount * , /bin/umount * | 16:49 |
| ZykoticK9 | CVirus, typically you'd put a mount point in fstab with a "user" option -- DON'T give all users MOUNT access < unless you want too | 16:49 |

| _2 | probably better to script the exact mount/umount/eject commands and username ALL...:/usr/local/bin/myscript_name.sh < then they can sudo myscript_name.sh and volah | 16:51 |
| sipior | arctic_import: have a look in /var/log/apt | 16:51 |
| stickboy | what is the cd command to move up to the parent directory? | 16:51 |

| stickboy | clocker, ty | 16:51 |
| _2 | CVirus main idea is to use sudo for what it was made for. but pmount would also work for that | 16:52 |
| ZykoticK9 | arctic_import, check out the logs in /var/log/apt | 16:52 |

| LjL | cousin_mario: SANE guys apparently didn't realize that something they did some time ago made my Epson all-in-one only work as a scanner if i first remove printer modules ;) anyway, it *might* have buttons support, with just Ubuntu not doing anything with it, although i'd have expected "--wait-for-button" to work then. but again, scanbuttond might just work | 17:11 |

| splashote | i got a Rhythmbox-Podcast-Selection. I want to retag the "album"-tag according to the folder their are located. i can't achieve this with easytag as the "scan" feature ends without any effect, although the example works alrigt. | 17:14 |
| hiexpo | llua have you looked for it in the add ons of firefox | 17:14 |
| theRipper | thanks acicula :) | 17:15 |

| tweaksource | gharz1: can't boot anything? | 17:16 |
| llua | hiexpo, yes, i drag the whole theme folder. | 17:16 |
| gantrixx | the icon in the tool bar is like a red circle with a line through it | 17:17 |
| hiexpo | is it a desktop theme or firefox browser theme? | 17:17 |
| gantrixx | has anyone else experienced this? | 17:17 |

| splashote | any way to change the ID3-Tag of MP3s according to the folder they are in?? | 17:18 |
| gharz1 | sh:grub | 17:18 |
| gharz1 | i installed ubuntu using wubi | 17:18 |
| tweaksource | gharz1: have you booted since successfully then? | 17:18 |
| splashote | this was so easy in windows.. ;) i hope foobar will one day be available for linux... | 17:18 |
| pacalNord | splashote... I use 'EasyTag'. it has a rename option for that | 17:19 |
| llua | hiexpo, it contains both | 17:19 |
| splashote | pacalNord: i tried. the scan tool did not change any of the values of the selected mp3s... | 17:19 |
| hiexpo | ok what folder are you dropping the theme in / | 17:19 |
| gharz1 | tweaksource: yes... it got messed up when the system updated and installed kernel 2.6.31-17 | 17:19 |
| sharperguy | On my other computer when I go into a non widescreen resolution, ubuntu creates a black border around to save stretching the image. For some reason I'm not getting that on the netbook remix, anyone know how to enable it? | 17:19 |
| pacalNord | weird.. I use it all the time. Hold on let me see if there is a gotcha | 17:20 |
| llua | hiexpo, the whole theme folder | 17:20 |
| splashote | pacalNord: although it worked in the example. i put " %a/ " and the log book says that alle files were scanned, but not a single one is changed! | 17:20 |
| tweaksource | is ther a grub menu entry for the old kernel that worked? | 17:20 |
| ut | sharperguy: that's a graphics card feature. google for configuration thingamajigs for whatever graphics chipset the netbook has | 17:20 |

| Jato_Laptop | So whenever I run wireshark as root it decides to crash on me with the error: ERROR:file.c:318:cf_reset_state: assertion failed: (cf->state != FILE_READ_IN_PROGRESS) | 17:21 |
| Jato_Laptop | Any idea why that would be | 17:21 |
| acicula | theRipper: or maybe its - for one letter arguments or -- for long arguments | 17:21 |
| hiexpo | ok if its what i think than right click on desktop /change background /click themes/ customize and probally in there | 17:21 |
| CVirus | _2 you still there ? | 17:22 |
| CVirus | err | 17:22 |
| theRipper | acicula thanks again ;) | 17:22 |
| acicula | Jato_Laptop: an error, any luck with google or the wireshark mailinglist? | 17:22 |
| Jato_Laptop | Wait, it just worked. | 17:22 |
| sharperguy | ut, hmm ok. Is Karmic the first one to turn it on? | 17:22 |
| pacalNord | splashote, on filescan.. i typically use the 'rename-file / directory' and it looks like you are trying to do the opposite. which would be 'Fill Tag'. | 17:22 |
| llua | hiexpo, i know how to change my desktop theme, just trying to get the firefox part of the theme working. | 17:22 |
| pacalNord | I havent tried 'FillTag' | 17:22 |

| llua | its not. | 17:23 |
| tweaksource | gharz1: do you still have the option to boot into the old kernel, 3rd line probably | 17:23 |
| hiexpo | you may have to restart firefox to enable it | 17:23 |
| ut | sharperguy: I don't know much that's specific. But I've fiddled with that in Windows before, and it depends on the driver software for a given chipset. It might not be supported by your drivers for your card, but that'd be where to look. | 17:23 |

| loops | DSpair, can you give the exact error message plz | 18:11 |
| DSpair | loops: Sorry, not Grub. syslinux/isolinux prompt | 18:11 |
| TrekCaptainUSA | specifically, DSpair, are you using the correct version? (32-bit or 64-bit)? | 18:11 |
| loops | DSpair, okay.. same thing | 18:11 |
| tweaksource | No prob. | 18:11 |
| DSpair | loops: I don't have physical access to the server. I have a co-worker relaying. | 18:11 |
| DSpair | TrekCaptainUSA: 32 bit should work on both 32 and 64 bit hardware. | 18:11 |
| James_-_ | acicula, I have to learn somewhere... I will have NOTHING of value on this and it isn't for making money so WHEN it goes down I wont be out a cent | 18:12 |
| loops | DSpair, actual error message would help :o) | 18:12 |
| acicula | bartmon: apt-cache ;) | 18:12 |
| TrekCaptainUSA | DSpair: I know that, just have to ask (I'm trained to ask things like that :P) I agree with Loops, the actual error would help | 18:12 |
| DSpair | loops: Being able to put my hands on the keyboard would help too, I was just hoping someone here would have a suggestion I hadn't thought of. | 18:12 |
| acicula | bartmon: apt-cache search vnc | grep server gives a bunch of options, you'll have to check which one you installed | 18:13 |
| loops | DSpair, it might be Xorg dying.. try going into text mode | 18:13 |
| DSpair | loops: Nope, it's not even making it that far. I had my co-worker in NY disable "quiet" in the kernel boot params. The initial kernel and ramdisk load, but then it stops. | 18:14 |
| DSpair | It's like init is not getting loaded properly. | 18:14 |
| bartmon | acicula: i installed none. There's one that comes pakaged with the default install and can be set up via the System menu in Gnome. Right now i want to change settings via ssh beause it is misbehaving but i can't find a trace of any vnc package on my system, any vnc config file... | 18:14 |
| loops | DSpair, dunno could guess at things all day I fear | 18:14 |
| acicula | bartmon: ah like so | 18:15 |

| centurian | hi, I have a quick question ... I am trying to install 8.04 Server using ubuntu-8.04.3-server-i386.iso, but my install fails due to verification errors. I have tried multiple burns, the ISO md5 matches, but when I run md5sum on the .txt file I get 7 errors: 6 files not found and 1 has a crc mismatch. Any ideas? | 18:16 |
| theRipper | why this error Configuring for Apache, Version 1.3.29 | 18:17 |
| theRipper | + Warning: Your 'echo' command is slightly broken. | 18:17 |
| acicula | centurian: did you try the checkcd option at bootup? | 18:17 |
| centurian | yes | 18:17 |
| centurian | I extracted the ISO file as well, same result | 18:17 |
| centurian | it's like the ISO is bad, but I have redownloaded it, and the md5 matches every time. | 18:17 |
| acicula | what md5sum on what text file are you running? | 18:17 |
| Diverdude | is there a program that allows me to control how much bandwidth my different running programs may use? For example if i am streaming something and downloading something at the same time, i would like to allocate a certain bandwidth for the streaming application | 18:18 |

| bartmon | acicula: yeah, seems to be it. Can't find any relevant config files though. Argh, this is supposed to be unix not that ridiculous gui only os. | 18:18 |

| loops | DSpair, another guess would be that the linux kernel can't read the boot media.. try installing from a USB stick maybe | 18:19 |
| daftykins | lieuwe: look into 'mythbuntu' | 18:19 |
| centurian | acicula: I am using the md5sum from the UbuntuHashes site, and to check the files I am using the included md5 txt | 18:19 |
| acicula | Diverdude: you can do it on your own computer using iptables, some routers are doing it | 18:19 |

| acicula | centurian: also when you local loop mount the iso? | 18:20 |
| Diverdude | acicula, i see...hmm its not in the ubuntu software center this "traffic shaping" program | 18:20 |

| acicula | Diverdude: iptables lets you traffic shape, its not a click install traffic shape program | 18:20 |
| relina | sometimes screeen goes black and back on | 18:20 |
| relina | could this be caused by refresh rate | 18:20 |

| relina | acicula: that is my reasoning too | 18:30 |
| acicula | etfb: put it /usr/local so you dont overwrite existing binaries belonging to packages | 18:30 |
| blakkheim | etfb: it's really up to you what you do with it | 18:30 |
| relina | so anybody what settings does logon screen use? | 18:30 |

| actionparsnip | Brontosaurusrexw: your settings will still be in $HOME/.mozilla so delte the folder too if it is no use to you to deleete old settings | 19:02 |

| Adman65 | actionparsnip: if i sudo -s, then run passenger-blah-blah, the command runs fine. The only thing I can think of is a $PATH error | 19:03 |

| Threetimes | acicula: so do lines 67 and 68 :D | 19:03 |
| acicula | phong_: yes | ./configure | 19:03 |
| caja2_ | acicula, I think it was tailing some log that I could see the output on terminal while I unplug and plug the device | 19:03 |
| phong_ | oh | 19:03 |
| acicula | or something like that, definitly not sudo | 19:03 |
| phong_ | let me try that | 19:03 |
| actionparsnip | Adman65: that's because sudo -s uses the users profile -I uses roots. Which is why -s is a better choicer | 19:04 |
| acicula | Threetimes: oh hey yeah , i sorta skimmed over that | 19:04 |
| Adman65 | actionparsnip: sudo -s passenger-blah-blah fails | 19:04 |
| acicula | Threetimes: still it says success there, i ussually stop asking questions then :p | 19:04 |
| actionparsnip | Adman65: but I agree it sounds like a path thing. You could add the extra path bit in /root/.bashrc | 19:05 |
| Adman65 | actionparsnip: tried that | 19:05 |
| phong_ | questoin: how to get a 'terminal' screen that look like the kubuntu one | 19:05 |

| blakkheim | phong_: install konsole..? | 19:05 |
| Adman65 | actionparsnip: Yup....doesn't make anysense | 19:05 |
| acicula | phong_: install the kubuntu terminal? | 19:05 |
| actionparsnip | Phong: you can install konsole if you like. It will install a few qt libs but if you don't mind the bloat go for it | 19:06 |

| nomic | acicula I am using the dual head graphical setup where you drag the monitors into position - I am not manually configuring xorg.conf .. I am using the standard install - touching nothing - I am not sure what flgrx hardware drivers are - if that is the standard install then that is what I am using - in fact I am pretty sure I am (I am not using 3rd party drivers) | 19:17 |

| Guest33523 | any help please | 20:03 |
| tonyyarusso | lopan: You were on the right track with grub-install from a Live CD. However, you need to change the contents of /boot in addition to the MBR, which means you either need to chroot to the drive first, or copy over the results before rebooting. | 20:03 |
| afroman | jonathan_: I see the realtek, not the hdmi | 20:04 |

| ascheel | quick question about crontab -e. How do you force vi to be used? Do .bashrc environment variables transfer to a sudo session? | 20:13 |
| afroman | tweaksource: I can't run pavucontrol, what is that? is it another prog I need to install? | 20:13 |
| ascheel | I'm trying to 'sudo crontab -e' but can't seem to get a sudo crontab to use vi | 20:13 |
| Chousuke | ascheel: you can set the EDITOR environment variable | 20:13 |
| ascheel | Chousuke: if I set it in my .bashrc, does it transfer with sudo? | 20:13 |
| Chousuke | it should | 20:13 |
| Chousuke | remember to export it though | 20:14 |
| tonyyarusso | lopan: Forget the chroot entirely - I don't think you need it, and it's harder. | 20:14 |
| afroman | jonathan_: it used to work when I had the original ati driver from ati.com. but ever since I installed the ati open driver it's been like that | 20:14 |
| Chousuke | ascheel: you can also configure the systemwide default editor with sudo update-alternatives --config editor | 20:14 |
| jonathan_ | afroman I've just been looking in launchpad and i can't see any recent bugs for this | 20:14 |
| tonyyarusso | lopan: If you wanted to go that route, you would mount sda3 to /mnt/realsystem, mount sda1 to /mnt/realsystem/boot, and then chroot to /mnt/realsystem | 20:14 |
| lopan | tonyyarusso: So just mount boot to /mnt/boot, then grub-install to that directory? | 20:14 |
| flying_penguin | Has anyone been able to pull video from HDMI on Linux? What kind of speeds can you get? | 20:15 |
| Chousuke | does grub-install need proc? | 20:15 |
| Chousuke | you might need to mount that too | 20:15 |
| tonyyarusso | lopan: grub-install takes a device as an argument, not a directory. | 20:15 |
| tonyyarusso | Chousuke: proc isn't on a drive... | 20:16 |
| lopan | I thought it needed both | 20:16 |
| dart_ | Hello, to reinstate the grub of ubuntu 9.04 with the version of the super grub disk 0.9799, does one can? | 20:16 |
| Chousuke | tonyyarusso: yeah, but some tools need it mounted anyway | 20:16 |
| jonathan_ | afroman this looks similar: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/501203 | 20:16 |
| Chousuke | tonyyarusso: and if you chroot you'll need to ensure there is a /proc under the new root. :) | 20:17 |
| Chousuke | tonyyarusso: though grub may not need it. I don't know. | 20:17 |
| tonyyarusso | Chousuke: my point being that /proc isn't "mounted" - it exists as soon as you boot a Linux kernel. | 20:17 |

| ascheel | Chousuke: I stand corrected. crontab -e is ignoring the variable | 20:18 |
| lopan | tonyyarusso: So why do I need to mount boot to /mnt/boot if grub-install only needs a device? | 20:18 |
| dart_ | Hello, to reinstate the grub of ubuntu 9.04 with the version of the super grub disk 0.9799, does one can? please | 20:18 |

| Leoneof | please help :( | 20:19 |
| Chousuke | tonyyarusso: well, I guess the linux kernel just mounts it by default when it boots :P | 20:19 |
| tonyyarusso | lopan: because grub writes to /boot in addition to the MBR. It uses it, but does not take it as an argument. | 20:19 |
| erUSUL | tonyyarusso: it is indeed mounted by the init scripts- and in case of a chroot to be on the safe side it is better to do « mount --bind /sys/ /mnt/whatever/sys/ » and repeat for /proc/ and /dev/ before you chroot | 20:19 |
| Chousuke | tonyyarusso: but you still might need to mount it again if you use chroots :) | 20:19 |
| afroman | jonathan_: it's similar but there is no solution... | 20:20 |
| lopan | tonyyarusso: Oh. So I need to mount it to /boot, not /mnt/boot | 20:20 |
| Chousuke | tonyyarusso: I had to do just that the other day to make update-initramfs work when installing debian :/ | 20:20 |

| Tribulation | I just upgrade to Ubuntu 9.10 from 9.04 today and ran into some issues I'm hoping someone here can help me with. I have two problems current. | 20:29 |
| Tribulation | 1. I can't enable Desktop Effects. I do not know why, I've been using them without problems since 8.10. | 20:29 |
| phox_ | Hi! i just install fceu by typing "sudo apt-get install fceu" in terminal, and it installs correctly. Then when i just typ "fceu", the nes-emulator doesnt run. Nor is it found under apps-games. whats the problem? | 20:30 |
| Tribulation | 2. Every time I boot into Ubuntu it enters low graphics mode. | 20:30 |

| safruhani | hi, i use 9.10, how can i replace the distros on grub.cfg --> http://pastebin.com/f470627b8 | 20:30 |
| kyle6513 | Tribulation, but for future reference, use pastebin, anything longer than 2-3 lines is frowned upon | 20:30 |
| daijoubu | linxeh installed Yafaray from deb from their website and it's not listed in Synaptic or add remove and i want to remove it but the deb package has only resinstall | 20:30 |
| apfelsaft | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m4ab0e0bd | 20:30 |
| Tribulation | Alright, will do | 20:30 |
| Trek | Tribulation: a thought: | 20:30 |
| kyle6513 | safruhani, the grub in 9.10 is grub 2, everything is said to be detected automatically | 20:31 |
| Trek | Tribulation:9.10 has multiple issues with graphics cards and what not | 20:31 |
| llutz | apfelsaft: senseless marketing blabla | 20:31 |
| kyle6513 | safruhani | !grub2 | 20:31 |
| Tribulation | I have made sure that video drivers are installed already | 20:31 |
| Trek | unfortunately, I must go | 20:31 |
| DJCharlie | So. Can anyone help with this vertical rolling issue? | 20:31 |
| blackxored | is there a way to change a FAT filesystem file's attributes through linux???? | 20:31 |
| Tribulation | It does? Well hell | 20:31 |
| apfelsaft | obviously the mcafee and office trials have a slight compatibility issue :p | 20:31 |
| Tribulation | Anyway I can downgrade to 9.04 without performing a clean install? | 20:32 |
| kyle6513 | Tribulation, 9.10 isnt the very best of releases, you may want to stick with 9.04 till lucid is released | 20:32 |
| safruhani | !grub2 | 20:32 |
| ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 20:32 |

| afroman | jonathan_: but if it is about the graphic card, I have the latest ati open driver installed. it makes no sense that it might work with 10.4 but not 9.10 | 20:32 |
| chester | vsem privet | 20:32 |
| jonathan_ | afroman how is it the latest? Are you using a ppa? | 20:33 |
| tonyyarusso | Tribulation: no | 20:33 |
| apfelsaft | so can anyone see any problems running linux on this HW? http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m4ab0e0bd | 20:33 |
| linxeh | daijoubu: what if you do dpkg -l *yafaray* | 20:33 |

| afroman | jonathan_: ya | 20:33 |
| chester | vsem privet | 20:33 |
| apfelsaft | llutz: noo idea. | 20:33 |
| kyle6513 | Tribulation, i suggest running a live cd, backing everything up, then installing | 20:33 |
| llutz | apfelsaft: get that info, come back later and ask then again | 20:33 |
| apfelsaft | I'll get it now. ta. | 20:33 |
| kyle6513 | Tribulation, maybe run from a usb so you can use a cd burner and such | 20:33 |

| Floops[w] | where can i find testing for new release of ubuntu | 20:34 |
| safruhani | i ask an easy question changing sort of the distros on grub2... why i can't do it without reading the wiki? | 20:34 |
| Tribulation | Well I guess I'll just back my stuff up and then install Debian | 20:34 |
| daijoubu | linxeh, No packages found matching yafaray_0.1.1_ubuntu64.deb. | 20:34 |

| safruhani | 0vas | 20:34 |
| kyle6513 | safruhani, patience is a virtue | 20:34 |
| jonathan_ | afroman ok. You said it worked with the proprietary graphics driver but not the os one, so it definitely looks like a graphics driver problem | 20:34 |
| daijoubu | linxeh, strange how does it know that there are no packages of yafaray 0.1.1 when it's not told in the description of the command lol | 20:35 |
| jonathan_ | afroman and if you're using the latest driver yet hdmi sound is not working, it may be worth filing a bug upstream with the os ATI developers | 20:35 |
| linxeh | daijoubu: oh, its globbed it then | 20:36 |
| linxeh | daijoubu: try doing it after doing cd /tmp | 20:36 |
| afroman | jonathan_: and how do I do that? | 20:36 |
| linxeh | daijoubu: or try dpkg -l | grep yafaray | 20:37 |
| linxeh | daijoubu: or try dpkg -l | grep -i yafaray | 20:37 |
| DJCharlie | Can ANYONE help me fix this? The rolling is making me dizzy. | 20:37 |
| daijoubu | linxeh, that worked it shows some options about purge and remove and then yafaray 0.1.1 YafaRay is a raytracing open source render e something like a table | 20:37 |
| Slart | If I create iptables rules using the regular "iptables" command, will they get saved when I reboot the system and reenabled when it restarts? | 20:37 |
| blakkheim | !please | DJCharlie | 20:37 |
| uwall-e | can anyone tell me quick how to purg wine from ubuntu 9.04? | 20:37 |
| ubottu | DJCharlie: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !attitude | 20:37 |
| Slart | uwall-e: sudo apt-get purge wine should do it | 20:38 |
| Black_Phantom | when is ubuntu updating firefox to 3.6 ? | 20:38 |
| Slart | uwall-e: not sure if you have to remove the .wine folder in your home folder manually though | 20:38 |
| Black_Phantom | please dont tell me till next release | 20:38 |
| Slart | Black_Phantom: by the next release, probably | 20:38 |
| DJCharlie | blakkheim: Aside from asking WHY I want to do something you haven't offered a single suggestion. | 20:38 |
| Black_Phantom | upgrading* | 20:38 |
| erUSUL | Slart: no by default afaik (unless you are using some firwall frontend that does that) | 20:38 |
| daijoubu | linxeh, grep shows ii yafaray 0.1.1 YafaRay is a raytracing open source render e | 20:38 |
| Black_Phantom | crap i have to wait 3 months ;/ | 20:38 |
| Meslot | wtf i am banned from a server that i never entered | 20:38 |

| Green_Wax | excuse me, does anyone know why i am unable to put my computer into standby? | 20:39 |
| linxeh | daijoubu: dpkg -r yafaray even | 20:39 |

| ubottu | DJCharlie: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines | 20:39 |
| LjL | Meslot: i don't suppose that's a problem with Ubuntu...? | 20:39 |
| rahmu | Green_Wax: maybe for lack of swap | 20:39 |
| Slart | erUSUL: hmm.. that's what I thought too.. and still my 8.04 xubuntu install does that.. and I can't remember if i've done something clever with it to get that functionality | 20:39 |
| LjL | Meslot: it might easily be a problem with your IRC'ing as root, though. | 20:39 |
| Meslot | sry..but the first channel i came inti ubuntu | 20:39 |
| jonathan_ | afroman are you using radeonhd? | 20:40 |

| LjL | !rootirc | Meslot | 20:40 |
| ubottu | Meslot: It's not technically our business, but we'd like to tell you that IRC'ing as root is a Very Bad Idea (tm). After all, doing anything as root when root is not needed is bad, and especially bad with software that connects to the Internet. | 20:40 |
| erUSUL | Slart: just save the settings with save and restore them in rc.local | 20:40 |
| Slart | erUSUL: yes.. I recognize those commands.. is there somewhere I could stick those to make them run on a restart? | 20:40 |
| Slart | erUSUL: or perhaps I'm saving them in a crontab.. haven't checked that =) | 20:40 |
| afroman | jonathan_: I think it's ati | 20:41 |
| llutz | Slart: /etc/network/if-up.d / down.d | 20:41 |
| hotellina | hi people, do you know how make ubuntu able to show volume levels for all sound peripherals ( usb also) ? | 20:41 |
| Slart | llutz: oh.. it brings down the network before it reboots? that would actually make sense.. thanks | 20:41 |
| jonathan_ | afroman which graphics card do you have again? If you look here: http://wiki.x.org/wiki/radeonhd you'll see that hdmi sound support was only just added to the radeonhd driver | 20:41 |
| Athen | how can one clear a software channel ? | 20:42 |
| Athen | I had tried to update firefox, and it didn't work well, but now i can't revert/reinstall the older version, as it says there's a newer version that conflicts with it | 20:42 |
| afroman | jonathan_: ati mobility radeon hd 3470 | 20:42 |
| b636bc7ca | When I try to use the "compose" key on my Ubuntu machine, it appears to 'stick' - that is, everything I type from then on is in a different character set - the only way out of it appears to be "dpkg-reconfigure console-setup". What am I missing? | 20:43 |
| joa_ | hello, i have a simple ubuntu server setup and i just want to be able to execute "aplay done.wav" when a certain process finishes. im no linux guy, it works for me now that i type "sudo aplay done.wav" but not for the current user. i installed alsa/pulseaudio and added the user to audio, video, pulse and pulse-access but no sound when not using sudo. | 20:44 |
| Slart | joa_: do you get some kind of error message when you try running it as a user? | 20:44 |
| joa_ | no, when i use speaker-test -twav for instance, i hear nothing, but no error message either | 20:45 |
| joa_ | oh, and aplay -L lists me all devices as well | 20:45 |
| lopan | tonyyarusso: still around? | 20:45 |
| jonathan_ | afroman have you tried the radeonhd driver? | 20:45 |
| afroman | jonathan_: I have seen this website before. I think it's old. I did try to install that way but I couldn't, so I did an apt-get install xserver-video-ati | 20:46 |

| afroman | jonathan_: it's been a long night | 20:50 |
| Athen | guntbert:: by adding a line to sources.list for the mozilla-daily ppa on launchpad | 20:50 |
| XeroXer | Hi all! Does anyone have a good way to detect what monitor (if any) is connected at boot? I'm on Ubuntu 9.10 64 bit. On 32 bit I used a script with ddcprobe that moved the correct xorg.conf file at bootup. But ddcprobe doesn't work on 64 bit for me. | 20:50 |
| Athen | I have since removed that line, and updated, but the package remains in all my lists | 20:51 |
| Athen | I can't force a version in Synaptic, it just keeps reverting to the newer one | 20:51 |
| jonathan_ | afroman what is the output of aplay -L? | 20:51 |

| guntbert | AND REMEMBER: don't click on any foreign links! | 20:54 |

| erUSUL | !latest | jmcantrell | 20:55 |
| ubottu | jmcantrell: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are: fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports. | 20:55 |

| drayner | pershian007 you can't resize a partition if in use that is why you should use a live cd or usb of ubuntu | 21:12 |

| * Tw|sT is using rsyslog, which bills as a 'drop-in replacement for syslogd & klogd'. The output of the logs itself isn't a problem. It's just that some of the messages going into the files are also displaying within SSH session, which is really annoying when I'm working on a conf file in an editor because I have to save out and reopen the file to get rid of the stdout message that are now on screen overlaying my editor. | 21:49 | |

| DasEi | loops , have you got a /boot/grub/menu.lst ? common is 1 , grub-pc is 2 | 21:59 |
| Nichod | Jackolantern: just download the 32 bit iso and place it into the wubi installation location...i THINK it will install that version for you. | 21:59 |
| advancedBoot | is it possible to manipulate the boot process to exclude things like the filesystem check? | 21:59 |
| James147 | Halabund: Could be a bug? | 21:59 |
| quarkup | arghh2d2: thanks. i could find that its the r8169 module | 21:59 |

| Jackolantern | Okay, I'll try it Nichod | 21:59 |
| Jackolantern | Thanks. | 21:59 |
| DasEi | loops, menu.lst there ? | 21:59 |
| Halabund | Ergh, there are just too many bugs. | 21:59 |
| arghh2d2 | Nichod: did you try a slow burn? also md5sum check on the iso? | 21:59 |
| Nichod | Jackolantern: just er...ok | 22:00 |
| noric | Edgan, my script simply calls ifconfig | 22:00 |
| loops | DasEi, i do not have a menu.1st all i have is /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 22:00 |
| advancedBoot | is it possible to manipulate the boot process to exclude things like the filesystem check? | 22:00 |
| noric | Edgan, which works when I execute it from bash, but not from cron. | 22:00 |
| DasEi | loops, so grub2 then | 22:00 |
| noric | Edgan, I use the shbang line #!/bin/sh | 22:00 |
| loops | DasEi, yeah.. that's what synaptics made me think.. is it using lilo maybe? | 22:00 |
| Nichod | arghh2d2: I did a slow burn the 3rd time. each download was for a different CD. And all md5sum check was fine. | 22:00 |
| Hunner | Hmm. dpkg segfaulted | 22:00 |
| DasEi | loops, not if you havent specified it | 22:01 |
| advancedBoot | anyone, is it possible to manipulate the boot process to exclude things like the filesystem check? | 22:01 |
| Nichod | arghh2d2: I even tried to install via Wubi and it failed there as well. And Wubi downloaded directly from the server. | 22:01 |
| IDWMaster | I managed to get Ubuntu 10.04 to boot in 5 seconds | 22:01 |
| === KindTwo is now known as KindOne | ||
| loops | DasEi, i didn't specify anything. Just popped CD in and answered a few basic questions | 22:01 |
| DasEi | loops, got an /etc/default/grub ? | 22:01 |
| Edgan | noric: Try /sbin/ifconfig somethings paths make a different with cron. Another thought is maybe apparmor is getting in the way | 22:01 |
| === crlsgms is now known as guerrilha_carlos | ||
| noric | Edgan, ty | 22:01 |
| loops | DasEi, yes | 22:01 |
| DasEi | loops, as root you can alter timeout there, afterwards load new config by sudo update grub | 22:02 |

| loops | DasEi, thanks, will give it a go | 22:03 |
| arghh2d2 | Nichod: i have not a clue... i always get my iso's through torrent to ensure all the packets loadup... it might be stalling on account of your hardware... try the noacpi flags | 22:03 |
| ghostlines | hi all, anyone has experience with powernowd? I can't get it to save my settings | 22:03 |
| marcin_ose | I am using QCad. Does anyone know where I find the design libraries for QCad on Ubuntu? I'm new to Ubuntu. I can't find the library folder in the directory structure. | 22:03 |
| advancedBoot | anyone, is it possible to manipulate the boot process to exclude things like the filesystem check? | 22:04 |
| arghh2d2 | Nichod: maybe bootup a differnt resolution if you have an old video card | 22:04 |
| advancedBoot | anyone, is it possible to manipulate the boot process to exclude things like the filesystem check? | 22:04 |
| arghh2d2 | advancedBoot: thats retarded | 22:05 |
| arghh2d2 | advancedBoot: you need bootschecks | 22:05 |
| DasEi | advancedBoot: read man tunefs for fsck settings | 22:05 |

| Kingsy102 | can someone tell me how the hell I get rid of empathy from the little drop drop when I click on the letter in the top right of the screen? | 22:08 |
| Halabund | Another question: ever since updating to Karmic, the speaker is buzzing in a low tone. It gets very annoying after a time, and I have to turn the volume down or mute it (it does respond to digital volume control). Did anyone see anything like this / is there a solution? | 22:08 |
| Kingsy102 | evolution is there which is great but I don't want/use empathy | 22:09 |
| oCean_ | Kingsy102: only by removing empathy alltogether i guess | 22:09 |
| DasEi | marcin_ose: apt-cache depends >paketname< shows dependencies | 22:09 |
| loops | DasEi, okay it is Grub 2 (1.97~beta4) installed. SHIFT doesn't work but ESC did. thanks for your help | 22:09 |
| Kingsy102 | brb | 22:09 |
| DasEi | loops np | 22:10 |
| loops | Unfortunately resuming from Suspend still doesn't work, not even Tux-On-Ice worked. | 22:10 |
| louiethecuban | hi | 22:11 |
| noric | Edgan, /sbin/ifconfig worked. I should have remembered that I have had no success with relative paths within crong | 22:12 |
| noric | cron* | 22:12 |
| noric | thanks | 22:12 |
| noric | late | 22:12 |
| Kingsy102 | can someone tell me, I have installed ubuntu 9.10 via update BUT for some reason the icons in the top right corner and in the start menu etc are strange.. (they are not the new style) | 22:13 |
| ninel | I need tips on debugging "how I could make my EDGE modem work through the netmanager" anyone? | 22:13 |
| Kingsy102 | you know how on the newer release they are grey? | 22:13 |
| sburwood | password questions are on this channel or on off-topic? | 22:13 |
| Kingsy102 | well on my installation they are black and the power off button is green sometimes etc.. its really weird.. | 22:14 |
| gammax500 | hello can i get help here with wireless setup questions? | 22:14 |
| Kingsy102 | I just want to have them all as the standard new grey, does anyone know what I mean? | 22:14 |
| daftykins | !ask | sburwood | 22:14 |
| ubottu | sburwood: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 22:14 |
| Slart | sburwood: depends on what password and what kind of questions | 22:14 |
| ninel | Kingsy102: you upgraded? Upgrade will inherit from older preference you had thats more likely | 22:14 |
| Kingsy102 | ninel - so how do I change it to the newer icons/menus? | 22:15 |
| ninel | Kingsy102: just like you'd do from preferences .. choose your liked theme | 22:15 |
| sburwood | Slart: I have two things. One, I want to change the system password, but it won't let me because it says that the password is too simple | 22:15 |
| gammax500 | need help with wireless problem - network manager says connected but no internet | 22:15 |
| Slart | sburwood: but give it a try.. I've never seen anyone kick-banned just because of a simple question (that didn't contain nasty words or such) | 22:15 |
| Slart | sburwood: we're talking about ubuntu ? | 22:16 |
| Kingsy102 | ohh yea I see it | 22:16 |
| Kingsy102 | nice one | 22:16 |
| gammax500 | ip address is assigned dhcp and dns name servers listed are right - but no internet | 22:16 |
| sburwood | Slart: yes, 9.10 | 22:16 |
| IDWMaster | br4216 | 22:16 |
| sburwood | and the other question is how to disable the asterixes (feedback) when I type the password | 22:16 |
| Slart | sburwood: ok, afaik there is nothing called "system password".. you have a user password which you use to login and use for sudo stuff.. you might mean the root password? | 22:17 |
| daftykins | gammax500: psatebin "route -n" and "ifconfig -a" in terminal please | 22:17 |
| gammax500 | ok one moment | 22:17 |
| sburwood | Slart: yes, I suppose | 22:17 |
| Slart | sburwood: hmm.. I read something about how to get rid of the asterixes.. hang on | 22:17 |
| ninel | upgrading to 9.10 I lost my EDGE modem to be used via network manager.. I now have to struggle everytime with wvdial... What can I do to reduce the pain? | 22:17 |
| sburwood | Slart: I had that possibility in 8.10, but I can't find the option in 9.10 | 22:18 |
| gammax500 | daftykins - ok done that | 22:18 |
| loops | Is there a 2.6.32 kernel PPA to add to software sources? | 22:18 |
| gammax500 | what am i looking for | 22:18 |
| daftykins | gammax500: wanna give me the pastebin links to the output of those commands please? | 22:18 |
| Slart | sburwood: where do you see the asterixes.. I don't get them when I use sudo on my 9.10 system | 22:18 |
| xangua | Hi there, i installed fx 3.6 in ubuntu using ubuntuzilla; my fonts look ugly :( http://img25.imageshack.us/img25/2558/fx36font.png is there anything i can do¿¿ | 22:19 |

| DDwi | when I get errors on the command line, why do they show up with weird characters -> error: expected â=â, â,â, â;â, âasmâ or â__attribute__â before âinit_cllsdâ ? and if it is a locale issue, wwhats the best way to reset it? | 22:20 |
| oCean_ | sburwood: you are aware that by default the root user has no password, that this root account is actually disabled? | 22:20 |
| Slart | sburwood: hmm.. let me check around.. I'll get back to you in a minute or two | 22:20 |
| daftykins | DDwi: you tried regenerating your locales then rebooting? "dpkg-reconfigure locales" | 22:20 |
| DDwi | daftykins, aha thats what I was looking for, cheers | 22:21 |
| sburwood | oCean_: When I installed the system with 9.10, I put in a password. I want to change that password. | 22:21 |
| elke | hello, can someone help me with some hard drive mounting issues? | 22:21 |
| elke | usb 1-5: reset high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 5 | 22:21 |
| sburwood | Slart: Thx, I'll wait | 22:21 |
| Kingsy102 | one more thing, if I have evolution closed and I get sent an e-mail and you have the icon int he preferences (check mail every 2 mins or whatever) does it prompt you? if you don't have it open I mean | 22:21 |
| sburwood | elke: I wish I could, but I'm a n00b | 22:21 |
| elke | me too | 22:22 |
| sburwood | elke: It relieves me to know that I'm not alone ... ;) | 22:22 |
| ninel | daftykins: probably you'll be able to help me out http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m48894de its the /var/log/messages tail output when I try the Network manager's EDGE Modem connectivity | 22:22 |
| oCean_ | sburwood: ah well, that's just the passwd of your default useraccount. You want to reduce the passwd "strength-requirements"? | 22:23 |
| magic_1 | hi guys, wondering what is the best proxy server to go with for ubuntu | 22:23 |
| sburwood | Slart: What bothers me, is that I did a sudo passwd, and it told me that the password was changed | 22:23 |
| cody | hi | 22:23 |
| llutz | ninel: nothing more? theres no serial/modem-driver loading | 22:23 |
| daftykins | ninel: so is the deal that network manage doesn't work with your WWAN hardware or that it's not working with it? | 22:23 |
| jbert | so i haven't been on ubuntu for about a year and a half due to school compatibility reasons - just stopped in to idly wonder if compiz has become any more awesome in that time? i miss my eye candy | 22:23 |
| sburwood | oCean_: No, if I can do without that | 22:24 |
| Slart | sburwood: we don't support having a root password set in this channel, it's not really needed | 22:24 |
| daftykins | jbert: what version did you run last? | 22:24 |
| ninel | my network manager's EDGE modem doesn't work since I upgraded to 9.10 | 22:24 |
| ninel | the modem only works with wvdial | 22:24 |
| jbert | daftykins: i think it was ibex - i remember one of the wallpapers being a goat | 22:24 |
| magic_1 | would have thought that ubuntu server would have come with some sort of proxy server | 22:24 |
| brad_ | anyone know why this site isn't watchable under karmic in firefox? | 22:25 |

| sburwood | Slart: My wife asked me for my password and I gave it to her. She doesn't know anything about computers, but her son ... | 22:25 |
| sburwood | Slart: And so I want to prevent him from getting into what I can do | 22:25 |
| Myke1 | Hey Folks... Got a question here. How would I put a different background on each workspace on a Ubuntu? I have 4 workspaces (for the cube. among other things) id like to put a different wallpaper/background on each one. Anyone know how to do that? | 22:26 |
| j2daosh | ok, need some help with apache2. I have installed it through apt-get and that version looks nothing like the actual version I would get by downloading and installing from apache. My site is up apparantly, but i cant seem to find the document root. I looked in the /etc/apache2/sites-available/default and it points to /var/www/. the site is enabled, but i have copied a new index.php there and... | 22:26 |
| gammax500 | daftykins - the top bin is the one with both cmds http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d7151e4aa | 22:26 |
| j2daosh | ...its still says the same stuff (yes, i reloaded apache). Where the hell is the default.html file coming from?! ::yanks out hair:: | 22:26 |
| FloodBot1 | j2daosh: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 22:26 |
| llutz | sburwood: give your wife an own account, without membership in admin-group | 22:26 |
| Slart | sburwood: keep him away from the computer.. give him a limited account.. oh.. and don't tell him your password | 22:26 |
| sburwood | Slart: I'm not accusing him, but he can be overbearing and I don't want him to have access to my access | 22:26 |
| ninel | daftykins: what should I call it? the dropdown menu which detects my EDGE modem used to connect before the upgrade to 9.10 | 22:26 |
| j2daosh | i didn't flood... i just had alot to say | 22:26 |
| droopyv | #/join irc.freenode.net#000webhost | 22:26 |
| daftykins | ninel: have you tried from LiveCD? if you have one... | 22:26 |
| sburwood | Slart: My wife needed access to the computer, but she .... I'm just going to have to reinstall everything from scratch, I see | 22:27 |
| ninel | daftykins: from liveCD it always works | 22:27 |
| Slart | sburwood: why not just change your password.. | 22:27 |
| j2daosh | sburwood, what is your problem? | 22:27 |
| khetti | can i run an xp vm using my actual xp install data/settings? | 22:27 |
| Slart | khetti: I think there is a way in virtualbox to do that.. haven't tried it myself though | 22:28 |
| ninel | I have even demonstrated to audience for Ubuntu Release party with the same modem | 22:28 |
| khetti | neat | 22:28 |
| sburwood | I did. It told me that the password was successful, but when I rebooted it, it only accepted the old password | 22:28 |
| unlofl | I need a hint here, I've accidentally created an empty file (zero bytes according to "ls -al") but its named "--help", so "rm --help" "rm *help" etc. display a usage synopsis... | 22:28 |
| Slart | sburwood: how did you change the password? | 22:28 |
| sburwood | Slart : I did. It told me that the password was successful, but when I rebooted it, it only accepted the old password | 22:28 |
| daftykins | ninel: so there's something wrong with network manager on your install. have you tried renaming (to backup) the network manager folder in your user /home so it's reset, the OS can then recreate and see what happens? | 22:28 |
| unlofl | is there a nice trick to passing an arg to force it not to be seen as a flag? | 22:29 |
| guerd | Im just running some basic system checks on my Server i just setup running xubuntu, when i type in free -m it says im using nearly 1400mb ram (700 in cache) yet when i run htop im only using 167mb ram and every process is under 1%. Which to believe or why is free -m showing so much? | 22:29 |
| vlt | unlofl: Use quotes | 22:29 |
| sburwood | Slart: I did it using users and groups, I then tried with a terminal, both as a normal user and then with sudp | 22:29 |
| daftykins | gammax500: ok just looking at it | 22:29 |
| ninel | I tried with remove network manager and then install it back | 22:29 |
| daftykins | sorry for the delay | 22:29 |
| j2daosh | unlofl: single quotes | 22:29 |
| j2daosh | not double | 22:29 |
| gammax500 | np - thanks | 22:29 |
| sburwood | and it told me that it was successful the password change | 22:29 |
| unlofl | vlt: rm "--help" does the same thing, as well as rm \-\-help | 22:29 |
| daftykins | ninel: no that's just the software. it's still reading your config from a hidden folder in ~/ (do ls -a in there to see in terminal) | 22:29 |
| unlofl | single or double quotes | 22:29 |
| ninel | what's the name of the folder? | 22:29 |
| Slart | sburwood: the users and groups should have worked.. any chance you forgot to click OK or something like that? | 22:29 |
| khetti | also, can apps run in a vm interact with apps running in x? | 22:29 |
| vlt | unlofl: Wat about ` rm -- "--help"` ? | 22:29 |
| ninel | let me rename it right now | 22:29 |
| magic_1 | i was thinking other than squid proxy | 22:29 |
| j2daosh | unlofl: try using tab completion | 22:29 |
| daftykins | ninel: sorry i have no ide atm as i'm not in an Ubuntu install | 22:30 |
| magic_1 | thought maybe ubuntu was using something else | 22:30 |
| goog1jh | unlofl: same problem here...can not delete -v, quotes didnt work (also single ones) j2daosh | 22:30 |
| sburwood | Slart: I'm a n00b, but not that ignorant | 22:30 |
| daftykins | gammax500: in terminal does it respond fine if you "ping 192.168.1.1" ? | 22:30 |
| j2daosh | let me make one an try to delete it | 22:30 |
| DDwi | hmmm daftykins I tried reconfiguring locales still getting strange characters in error messages -> expected â=â, â,â, â;â, âasmâ or â__attribute__â before âinit_cllsdâ any ideas? | 22:30 |
| j2daosh | (you can also do it thru the gui if you have that option) | 22:30 |
| sburwood | Slart : and yes, I did click to confirm and it told me that the password was changed | 22:30 |
| gammax500 | daftykins - yes, it responds | 22:31 |
| linas_ | \quit | 22:31 |
| goog1jh | j2daosh: no gui available, only shell access | 22:31 |
| Slart | sburwood: ok.. try it again.. system, administration, users and groups.. click on your account then properties and then "Change Password" | 22:31 |
| j2daosh | rightie oh, lemme make afile named --help and see what i get | 22:31 |
| daftykins | gammax500: ok what's in your /etc/resolv.conf ? should just be something like "nameserver 192.168.1.1" ? | 22:31 |
| donphinney | Hi I am a bit new here, I am recently started using ubuntu as my desktop OS (used linux for servers for years) and now I find a few things I used to do in windows hard to find. I really need to be able to switch back and forth from russian to english on my keyboard how is this done in ubuntu? | 22:31 |
| PMantis | Hi guys, I'm in Ubuntu 9.10, fully updated. Created 2 boot USB sticks with "USB Startus Disk Creator", neither boot - tested on 3 machines. Boots to "boot error". I tried running install-mbr in a stick, but that didn't help. Ideas? | 22:31 |
| unlofl | gah, man rm had it .... somebody make fun of me | 22:31 |
| Neremor | hello! I configured a backup via LuckyBackup (using rsync). I defined for my documents-backup a source-folder (containing all my backups) and a target-folder (which is supposed to contain my backup. The problem is: If i delete any files in the source folder, they are not deleted in the target folder. What I need is something like a complete removal of the target-folder before running the backup again. Is there any feature in rsync which | 22:32 |
| Neremor | supports this? I hope it was a bit understandable... | 22:32 |
| DaDudeX | need some help, i'm installing ubuntu 9.10 with wubi from windows and when i reboot to ubuntu after first splash screen with ubuntu logo flashing my monitor goes out of range... can anyone help me ? | 22:32 |
| blakkheim | DaDudeX: don't use wubi | 22:32 |
| ninel | daftykins: I just did .n lookup and it shows only four such names none of which are network related one was .netx | 22:32 |
| j2daosh | ? | 22:32 |
| Aurelian | hello | 22:32 |
| DaDudeX | blakkheim why ? | 22:32 |
| DasEi | !hi | 22:32 |

| goog1jh | wddk@research2:~$ rm '-v' | 22:32 |
| goog1jh | rm: missing operand | 22:32 |
| goog1jh | Try `rm --help' for more information. | 22:32 |
| Aurelian | does anyone know about , alice bot ? | 22:32 |
| unlofl | ah, the answer is the -- option, or remove using a path ( so the name starts ./ or /full/path/to/fule ) | 22:32 |
| daftykins | ninel: hmm perhaps do a little background on how network manager stores its' settings? | 22:32 |
| blakkheim | DaDudeX: because you run into problems like this when you do. it's also slower since it's running on top of windows' horrible filesystem. do a real installation. | 22:32 |
| Aurelian | noone ? | 22:33 |
| unlofl | goog1jh: so "rm ./--help" works fine | 22:33 |
| daftykins | !ot | Aurelian | 22:33 |

| DasEi | Georg , possibly ntldr missing, d/l a superGrubDIsk greater version 1 and boot it, try to start xp from that, (live) if that works, let it repair grub | 22:40 |
| daftykins | nwbnhlp: boot the CD, run install, select manual install and don't make a swap partition. just make /boot, / and /home, or just make a single / if you really want. though i advise against that | 22:41 |

| Trek | Gooooorish: what's your issue with Jaunty? | 22:45 |
| BluesKaj | aarcane, have you formatted to ext4 and flagged it to boot and set . | 22:46 |
| DasEi | Georg: never used the usb version, I#d rather use standard cd iso and unebootin to bring it to a stick, then make bios boot from hit, the cd has good help | 22:46 |

| daftykins | gammax500: ok i find it weird you're getting given 192.168.0.x addresses then, because you won't be able to communicate with 1.x addressing unless there's a router between | 22:46 |
| PMantis | daftykins: It sounds like your /etc/hosts file and /etc/hostname file don't agree on your system name. | 22:46 |
| nwbnhlp | Maximiliano: At the beginning there is no option like that. There is language selection, then time zome selection, keyboard layout, prepare disk space, etc. | 22:46 |

| aarcane | Trek: your CLIENT wants it to not start automatically, so disable the service using bum. your client can still start it manually. | 22:56 |
| Panzerboy | stewartdenton: /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname are files, not folders | 22:56 |
| daftykins | stewartdenton: nah /etc/ is the only folder, "hosts" and "hostname" are config files. you can open them by hitting alt+f2 and typing "gedit /etc/hosts" etc | 22:56 |

| DasEi | Trek you should find fs there if its autostarted | 22:58 |
| AJC_Z0 | actually, (1) | 22:58 |
| Slart | loops: you can use apt-file to search in packages for a specific file.. but I don't think there is a way to find out which package installed a particular file on your system | 22:58 |
| loops | AJ_Z0-, trism that doesn't seem to restrict itself to installed packages only.. or am i wrong? | 22:58 |
| NoobUser | Will Ubuntu warn me before my HDD dies so that I can buy a new one and transfer the data over? | 22:58 |
| loops | Slart, okay thx | 22:59 |
| Slart | loops: I think some files even come included in several packages | 22:59 |
| Panzerboy | ekristen: what happens if you restart X? do you get the mouse cursor back? | 22:59 |
| Trek | DasEi: i'm not certain its continually autostarted. What it says on boot (ctrl-alt-f1) is Loading the Firestarter Firewall... failed | 22:59 |
| aarcane | NoobUser: it's warned me twice on two hard-drives. | 22:59 |
| Panzerboy | NoobUser: i don't think any os can "warn" you | 22:59 |
| trism | loops: that should only be installed packages, if you want ones that aren't installed, you need to use apt-file | 22:59 |
| daftykins | NoobUser: that's not really how any OS should work, that's why backup exists :) usually it can tell you though | 22:59 |
| ekristen | Panzerboy: I have restarted multiple times but I can try again | 22:59 |
| Trek | DasEi: the client want it to not even try to load firestarter | 22:59 |

| Trek | DasEi: they already load manually after login | 22:59 |
| AJC_Z0 | loops: I'm not AJ_Z0, but it is restricted to installed packages. I don't know the equivalent of "yum whatprovides" for Debian | 22:59 |
| NoobUser | aarcane: And they failed soon after? | 22:59 |
| ekristen | Panzerboy: whats the best way to restart X on ubuntu? | 22:59 |
| ekristen | I'll just try that | 22:59 |
| zleap | NoobUser, not sure but it does run fsck every x number of reboots, i would advise you to let this run rather than pressing esc to quite (would people agree) | 22:59 |

| NoobUser | aarcane: So I'm allowed to send my HDD back to the manufacturer if SMART finds a problem? | 23:00 |
| Panzerboy | zleap and ekristen: i think you have to manually edit xorg.conf | 23:00 |

| ekristen | it is and it actually works ;) | 23:03 |
| ekristen | I just have to guess where the cursor is at | 23:03 |
| Panzerboy | it's just that the cursor is missing? | 23:03 |
| Panzerboy | lol | 23:03 |
| daftykins | stewartdenton: did you literally just install 9.10 (server is it?) a minute ago? | 23:03 |

| zzzxzzz | is anybody over there? | 23:05 |

| zzzxzzz | is anybody over there? | 23:05 |
| stewartdenton | daftykins: I have been using sudo quite a bit, but may have messed something up along the way :( | 23:06 |
| loops | jolaren, not sure what you mean.. it's just on the menu Show -> Offline Buddies | 23:06 |
| daftykins | stewartdenton: ah ;x i know how to fix it but you'd have to do all sorts of tedious stuff with a livecd to sorta recover it, so i'd recommend just reinstalling to start with | 23:06 |
| jolaren | loops; I mean blocked contacts.. | 23:06 |
| zzzxzzz | is anybody over there? | 23:07 |
| loops | jolaren, sorry can't help on that one | 23:07 |

| daftykins | stewartdenton: possibly that script! only a guess though ;) | 23:08 |
| nwbnhlp | iflema: now i get a "no root filesystem defined" error | 23:08 |
| Trek | silverraindog: I kinda need to know how to edit rc.d so I can prevent the system from attempting to load Firestarter firewall during bootup | 23:08 |
| Trek | pre-login | 23:08 |
| stewartdenton | daftykins: I would prefer to run a recovery if possible since I have already setup quite a few things on this machine | 23:08 |
| zzzxzzz | i just had a question and nobody answered | 23:08 |
| CkhiKuzad | is there a way to quickly remove duplicate songs from banshee? | 23:08 |
| hiexpo | whats the ? zzzzzzzz | 23:08 |
| iflema | nwbnhlp are you looking to split-up into several partitions or just the two... one for / (root) and one 4 swap? | 23:09 |
| stewartdenton | daftykins: Do you know of a link describing the recovery process? | 23:09 |
| hiexpo | zzzxzzz, - what you need | 23:09 |
| Trek | zzzxzzz: i don't remember seeing you ask a quesiton, and I"m quite observant | 23:09 |
| andruk | can i install ubuntu with windows 7? | 23:10 |
| nwbnhlp | iflema: i just want to install to one partition (use a swap file) | 23:10 |
| Trek | andruk: yes, but you need to install Win7 first then Ubuntu second | 23:10 |
| unlofl | I'm aggregating logs with syslog, but lines show the ip of the host. do I need to fix the sending syslog instance, or how the server determines host names? | 23:10 |
| andruk | Trek: so, grub 2 (ubuntu 9.10) wont erase windows 7, and it will automatically handle windows 7 booting? | 23:10 |
| Royall | what are some good keyboard shortcuts to Add | 23:11 |
| Royall | It seems like an amazing feature but I just can't think of what commands I should link | 23:11 |
| DasEi | Trek, apart from deeper looks in /etc/firestarter/firewall and other, why not just run firestarter stop at bootup ? | 23:11 |
| daftykins | stewartdenton: nah sorry, i just booted the server CD again and chose some kinda recovery that gave me a prompt, then i fixed /etc/hosts to say "127.0.0.1 localhost" "127.1.0.1 - computername" etc etc | 23:11 |
| silverraindog | Trek: why are you wanting to prevent it from starting ? | 23:12 |
| stewartdenton | daftykins: thanks for your help. I am going to try my best before I redo this thing lol | 23:12 |
| daftykins | ok :) no problem | 23:12 |
| Trek | silverraindog: a client wants it to stop trying to load it | 23:12 |
| XiXaQ | it looks to me that installing from the dvd takes much longer than installing from a cd, when the iso is mounted and you're installing in a vm. Can someone confirm or deny this, and preferably explain why I feel this way? | 23:12 |
| Trek | silverraindog: they actually say they don't like seeing "failed' in the boot logs | 23:12 |
| nwbnhlp | iflem: THE ERROR IS when i click "Forward" in the partitioner | 23:13 |
| Trek | DasEi: it would be useful to know how to do that, I'm not super-fluent in Linux yet | 23:13 |
| iflema | nwbnhlp swap should be larger than ya physical ram.... say double... and the larger one will be the root partition or / . | 23:13 |
| daftykins | XiXaQ: which virtualisation software? i've not really seen any differences between DVD and CD images with vmware | 23:13 |
| iflema | nwbnhlp te root partiotn will want a mount point and that is / | 23:14 |
| hiexpo | Trek, - ya i asked the zzz guy also what he needed and he never answered | 23:14 |
| ubuntu | hello | 23:14 |
| Trek | hiexpo: i noticed that, i guess maybe he's a troll-ish user? | 23:14 |
| hiexpo | lol | 23:14 |
| ubuntu | there is any from PL | 23:14 |
| XiXaQ | daftykins, I'm using vbox right now. But at the end of the install, it removes lots of language spesific things, like italian openoffice. I wonder if more of that is available on the dvd, and that it is the reason? | 23:14 |
| Trek | i'll figure out the rc.d thing later | 23:15 |
| Trek | new issue: | 23:15 |
| Trek | is there a way to make changes to iptables persistent? | 23:15 |
| Trek | as in so it doesn't reset after reboot? | 23:15 |
| Trek | i'm not using ufw or any other gui, i'm talking strictly command line | 23:16 |

| DasEi | Trek: they are per default, unless you run such as firestarter, ufw is simple for that | 23:16 |
| silverraindog | Trek: you can do iptables-save ? | 23:16 |

| Pelo | russianzilla, unlikely, the next release is only a couple of months away | 23:36 |

| Pelo | russianzilla, that happened in 8.04 because it was the lts | 23:37 |

| daftykins | aliendude3500: you tried running it with the profile manager switch? | 23:37 |
| daftykins | aliendude3500: or deleting your profile entirely? | 23:38 |
| Pelo | aliendude3500, sudo apt-get remove --purge firefox && sudo apt-get install firefox | 23:38 |
| aliendude3500 | daftykins, no, I deleted the lock files in my profile, and deleted the extensions data. I also completely removed firefox (not with purge -- I like my bookmarks) and reinstalled it with --reinstall. | 23:38 |
| daftykins | aliendude3500: just make a backup. | 23:39 |
| Pelo | aliendude3500, purge will not remove your bookmarks, purge does not mess wit the stuff in /home | 23:39 |

| kanzie | anil56554: me? You want me to lower it on the tv, it seems more like if it cant write to the Xconfig-file | 23:46 |
| goundy | if so, run firefox in safe mode | 23:46 |

| mathew | i'll try that, my friend told me it is a complicated process to install drivers on ubuntu though | 23:48 |
| jiohdi | cirodiazvelez: drivers are part of the kernel you do not install them | 23:48 |
| === trumpen` is now known as trumpen | ||

| aliendude3500 | Anyone know when Firefox 3.6 will be packaged for Lucid? | 23:48 |
| cirodiazvelez | but i dont have my display drivers and i cant change the display resolution =( | 23:49 |

| david605 | well hello thar | 23:49 |
| noladesi | hello | 23:50 |
| david605 | so this is support for ubuntu? | 23:50 |
| noladesi | ubuntites | 23:50 |
| noladesi | yeah | 23:50 |
| Pelo | david605, this is ubuntu support , what can we help you with ? | 23:51 |
| noladesi | lot of good help in these parts. | 23:51 |
| david605 | ok thanks, im new to IRC so im still learning :D | 23:51 |
| noladesi | good stuff | 23:51 |
| noladesi | irc takes some gettin use to. | 23:51 |
| Pelo | david605, you'll learn , we all did | 23:51 |
| aliendude3500 | IRC is really easy to learn. I used to use irssi, but due to laziness, I now use XChat. I still use irssi when I can't boot into an Xserver though. | 23:52 |
| Black_Phantom | Hello | 23:52 |
| Black_Phantom | is firefox going to be updated to 3.6 in ubuntu 9.10 ? | 23:52 |
| ulb | irssi rocks | 23:52 |
| noladesi | i keep hearing about xchat | 23:52 |
| aliendude3500 | Think of it as a "chat room". | 23:52 |
| rww | Black_Phantom: I doubt it. | 23:52 |
| daftykins | uh-oh we need a factoid about FF | 23:52 |
| queso | what's a really good console-based ftp client? | 23:52 |
| daftykins | Black_Phantom: it might get added as a separate package called its' codename | 23:52 |
| * Pelo uses irssi to idle in bonus point channels | 23:53 | |
| daftykins | as Shiretoko was FF 3.5 in jaunty | 23:53 |
| Black_Phantom | do you advice installing it from the website ? | 23:53 |
| ulb | nftp/lftp | 23:53 |
| aliendude3500 | Black_Phantom, I hope it does, but you can just untar the archive and run the firefox file for now... | 23:53 |
| Black_Phantom | I will see what I can do. | 23:53 |
| Black_Phantom | Thanks | 23:53 |
| huhlig | ok, weird problem. I am using a cheap normal usb keyboard and 99% of the keys work fine however certain keys are both sluggish or spitting out incorrect characters. Im using the latest kubuntu. I checked to make sure that the keyboard mapping is correct | 23:53 |
| aliendude3500 | Until there is an official package there's no need to install it. The difference is not very noticable. | 23:53 |
| Black_Phantom | aliendude3500, I agree. | 23:54 |
| Black_Phantom | I will use Chrome, its even better | 23:54 |
| huhlig | double quotes are an example, I know the keyboard is fine cause I use it in windows regularly | 23:54 |
| noladesi | sometimes my keys stop working | 23:54 |
| queso | ulb: thx | 23:54 |
| aliendude3500 | Black_Phantom, Chrome is ok, but it has crappy extension support, and barely any browser settings that power users like myself appreciate. | 23:55 |
| Black_Phantom | but its faster | 23:55 |
| jiohdi | queso, firefox does a good job too btw | 23:55 |
| huhlig | ¨ instead of " | 23:55 |
| Black_Phantom | the java rendering | 23:55 |
| huhlig | im not sure why that is occuring | 23:55 |
| aliendude3500 | Black_Phantom, Opera 10.5 is faster than chrome. | 23:55 |
| huhlig | anyone know? | 23:55 |
| ulb | queso: np | 23:56 |
| BluesKaj | aliendude3500, ye | 23:56 |
| cirodiazvelez | first it says looking for drivers and after that is an empty list wiouth any driver | 23:56 |
| cirodiazvelez | =( | 23:56 |
| Black_Phantom | aliendude3500, what about 10.10 ? | 23:56 |
| cirodiazvelez | what can i do | 23:56 |
| BluesKaj | aliendude3500, but opera is fugly | 23:56 |
| aliendude3500 | huhlig, how cheap is the keyboard? I've seen $10 keyboards work flawlessly under Linux (admittedly I'm using a $65 keyboard). | 23:56 |
| queso | jiohdi: firefox isn't console :p | 23:56 |
| Pelo | later folks , gotto go | 23:56 |
| huhlig | aliendude3500, its an HP model | 23:56 |
| noladesi | hey for some reason my mouse is not as smooth on ubuntu compared to windows, anyone els having this issue? | 23:56 |
| huhlig | came with my laptop | 23:57 |
| queso | jiohdi: I want something I can keep in a screen session | 23:57 |
| aliendude3500 | Black_Phantom, probably faster than 10.5 I'd assume... | 23:57 |
| huhlig | using it on a miniitx system | 23:57 |
| Black_Phantom | !opera | 23:57 |
| ubottu | Opera is an advanced, fast and free (as in beer) web browser. It is packaged for easy installation into Ubuntu. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OperaBrowser | 23:57 |
| CkhiKuzad | -.- | 23:57 |
| jiohdi | queso sorry, I dont speak tech that fluently I now have no idea what you mean :) | 23:57 |
| CkhiKuzad | is there a way to quickly remove duplicate songs from banshee? | 23:57 |
| CkhiKuzad | 5th time | 23:57 |
| Black_Phantom | !firefox | 23:58 |
| ubottu | firefox is the default web-browser on Ubuntu. To install the latest version, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxNewVersion Installing plugins: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxPlugins - See also !firefox-3.5 | 23:58 |
| aliendude3500 | huhlig, are you sure the keys are mapped right? | 23:58 |
| queso | jiohdi: no prob ;) | 23:58 |
| huhlig | aliendude3500, no. I checked the kde regional keyboard mapping and it says it is | 23:58 |
| aliendude3500 | huhlig, open a terminal and type "setxkbmap us"/ | 23:58 |
| huhlig | ahah! | 23:59 |
| huhlig | so kde has fscked up my settings | 23:59 |
| huhlig | how do I fix that | 23:59 |
| Black_Phantom | wha about IE ? jk | 23:59 |
| mathew | how do i tell if im on a linux 32, or 64 bit | 23:59 |
| mathew | ? | 23:59 |
| aliendude3500 | huhlig, I don't use KDE. Sorry... | 23:59 |
