shane2peru | detrix, hmm, I just did that not to long ago, it was quite tricky | 00:50 |
shane2peru | detrix, it is buried in the bios somewhere, I think you have to hit tab to get the bios | 00:50 |
shane2peru | detrix, the splash screen should tell you what to hit, I can't remember now, may have been F2 | 00:50 |
detrix | shane2peru: thats the thing, I am not getting a splash screen. | 00:51 |
Rafael | hello, if ubuntu shows a connection as available but i can't connect to it, is it a problem wit | 00:51 |
shane2peru | detrix, really? is it hidden with an asus splash screen? | 00:51 |
miki | hi people... i cant get sound to work anymore. | 00:51 |
shane2peru | detrix, what asus is it? | 00:51 |
daftykins | detrix: a lot of the Eee's use a feature which prevents the BIOS being easily accessible. what i recommend you do is shutdown, turn off the laptop, remove the battery, disconnect mains power, then plug it back in. then start up with the power button and try F2/delete/etc to try and get in | 00:51 |
detrix | shane2peru: the F2 worked. | 00:52 |
Rafael | hello, if ubuntu shows a connection as available but i can't connect to it, is it a problem with my 3g modem(nokia cs-10) or the way the connection is configured? | 00:52 |

daftykins | DexterP17: ask away | 00:52 |
shane2peru | detrix, ok, glad you got it, the bios is a little confusing, so poke around till you find booting off the usb | 00:52 |
* shane2peru thinks asus should always check usb boot first, | 00:52 | |
daftykins | detrix: it's usually pretty vague like "external device boot" | 00:53 |
tato42 | detrix u need to hit f2 and enter setup and then enable f12 to choose boot options | 00:53 |

shane2peru | daftykins, most people here wouldn't know how to boot off a usb even anyway, | 00:54 |

blakkheim | BlackFlag20: whats the problem | 00:58 |
daftykins | DexterP17: just in the chat window | 00:58 |
shane2peru | bobino, I'm not sure, I thought hotmail did away with their pop access? | 00:58 |
daftykins | hotmail only has paid POP afaik | 00:58 |
shane2peru | daftykins, that is what I thought | 00:58 |
bobino | shane2peru: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingHotmailWithEvolution | 00:58 |
BlackFlag20 | whenever i try to download wine from the ubuntu software center i get a message that has the title PACKAGE DEPENDENCIES CANNOT BE RESOLVED and this message"This error could be caused by required additional software packages which are missing or not installable. Futhermore there could be a conflict between software packages which are not allowed to be installed at the same time." | 00:59 |
blakkheim | BlackFlag20: sudo aptitude install wine | 00:59 |
shane2peru | bobino, I'm pretty sure hotmail locked their pop mail to only paying users | 00:59 |
shane2peru | bobino, so if you are a paying user, you should be fine | 01:00 |
shane2peru | BlackFlag20, also you can open up System -> Administration -> Synaptic and try with that | 01:00 |
zomfgcrazy | What are 'sda1' and 'sda2'? Why can't all of the partitions be in the same 'sd'? | 01:01 |
BlackFlag20 | if you type $ winecfg into your terminal are you supposed to show one or two versions of wine? | 01:01 |
shane2peru | zomfgcrazy, how many hard drives do you have? | 01:01 |
bobino | shane2peru: i m not so you mean it s useless to go forward with the guide? | 01:01 |

Billiard | zomfgcrazy: sda1 and sda2 are partitions 1 and 2 on your first drive | 01:02 |
shane2peru | bobino, I'm not 100% sure, but I would double check before going through the setup | 01:02 |
BlackFlag20 | cause when i type $ winecfg it shows wine and wine 1.2 | 01:02 |
daftykins | zomfgcrazy: yes "sd" is a hard disk, then "a" is the first hard disk | 01:02 |
bobino | shane2peru: i ve done it. you think i will have to pay then? | 01:03 |
zomfgcrazy | how come ubuntu install (and ubuntuswap) appear /within/ sda2 (inGparted) but sda1 is /itself/ the windows partition? | 01:03 |
Wipster | is there a way to remove the packages which where installed to satisfy the dependancy of something else once I remove it? | 01:03 |

Dr_Willis | zomfgcrazy: pastebinit the output of 'sudo fdisk -l' and let the channel take a look | 01:03 |
andruk | DexterP17: you want to type something like /msg NickServer register mack72676 DexterP17@gmail.com | 01:03 |
daftykins | zomfgcrazy: because of the MBR specification. bootable partitions must be one of four maximum, and these are sda1 through sda4. then logical drives are numbered from sda5 -> | 01:03 |
Billiard | zomfgcrazy: because that is how it set it up? windows on first partition, linux on 2nd? | 01:03 |
shane2peru | bobino, I really don't know much about hotmail | 01:03 |
Dr_Willis | zomfgcrazy: if sda2 is a extended partiion - its holding logical partions. | 01:03 |
bobino | no worries i ll figure it out and let you know | 01:04 |
rww | DexterP17: switch to a server window and do /msg nickserv register putpasswordhere putemailhere | 01:04 |
andruk | DexterP17: except, now that everybody has seen your password, you should not use that one... | 01:04 |
zomfgcrazy | Dr_Willis, it is not on this computer. | 01:04 |

zomfgcrazy | Currently I have unallocated space within sda2. I would like to install Ubuntu in that space. Must I delete sda2 first, or can I install Ubuntu within that space?.. | 01:06 |
daftykins | zomfgcrazy: can you upload an image of gparted or whatever partitioning utility you're looking at? | 01:07 |
daftykins | i think said picture would tell a thousand partitions... | 01:07 |
yoyoned | zomfgcrazy: how much space | 01:07 |
Billiard | zomfgcrazy: if sda2 is an extended partiton, and you arent going to have more than 4 partitions, i would delete it and just use primary partitions | 01:07 |
yoyoned | zomfgcrazy: does sda2 contain data, | 01:07 |
zomfgcrazy | daftykins, unfortunately it's on a seperate computer with no net connection currently booted on an install cd | 01:08 |
daftykins | zomfgcrazy: you not got a flash drive to transfer? | 01:08 |
zomfgcrazy | yoyoned, sda2 contains "unallocated space" | 01:08 |

Matthew11 | Hello! I have a problem. I trying to set up my ubuntu for packet writing, but the pktcdvd module is missing. Where can I found it? | 01:11 |
zomfgcrazy | (-> http://i45.tinypic.com/316aqvo.png <-) | 01:11 |
jake614 | i think this must be a software issue | 01:11 |
daftykins | jake614: which ubuntu and what changed last between now and when it didn't work? | 01:11 |
ardchoille | How do I get "Encrypt" and "Sign" options in the nautilus right click menu? Which package do I need to install? I already have seahorse and gnupg | 01:11 |
rww | ardchoille: seahorse-plugins | 01:11 |
daftykins | zomfgcrazy: ah yeah that's fine, delete the sda2 then install \o/ | 01:12 |
yoyoned | zomfgcrazy: you can install there | 01:12 |
songer | why audio disappears after a while on firefox | 01:12 |
miki | could someone help me with my sound, all the drivers are messed up | 01:12 |
Billiard | zomfgcrazy: i would delete sda2 and just use primary partitions if you arent going to have more than 4 total | 01:12 |
zomfgcrazy | Billiard, I don't think I understand the difference between primary and logical | 01:12 |
Squeese | Fresh ubuntu user, having slight problems with right click - Right click always ends up selecting the first option on the menu, I have "untitled folder" everywhere :P | 01:13 |
jake614 | just so you know, this toshiba laptop came with vista, i switched to ubuntu jaunty in may 09 and everything worked perfectly, then switched to karmic when it was released, and again everything was working just fine (except the sound), while on karmic, usb devices stopped working after an update (after two months of working fine), then downgraded to jaunty again, got sound back, but no usb | 01:13 |
daftykins | zomfgcrazy: on an MBR (normal) hard disk, you can only have 4 primary partitions (only primary are bootable) then logical ones come after. it's an old term from sorta DOS era | 01:13 |
jake614 | i have a webcam, a mouse and a usb flash, none work in any port, i have 4 | 01:13 |
daftykins | jake614: have you tried a livecd? | 01:14 |
greatend | Come check out new proxy :D http://legit-source.com/ | 01:14 |
daftykins | to rule out the installed OS | 01:14 |
zomfgcrazy | so.. what is the point of a logical partition? | 01:14 |
rww | zomfgcrazy: the partition table format you're using supports a maximum of four partitions. Windows and Ubuntu get around this by making the fourth partition an "extended partition" with more pretend-partitions (that look and act just like regular ones) crammed inside it. | 01:14 |
ardchoille | rww: do I need to enable those plugins somehow? They aren't showing in the nautilus menu | 01:14 |
rww | zomfgcrazy: the pretend partitions are called "logical" oens | 01:14 |
rww | ardchoille: restart GNOME, perhaps | 01:14 |
daftykins | zomfgcrazy: to have more than the primary ones (: | 01:15 |
zomfgcrazy | ahh.. so that's why the ubuntu one looked like it was 'inside' the blue box, graphically, while the windows one 'was'a blue box. | 01:15 |
jake614 | no, i havent | 01:15 |
rww | zomfgcrazy: yes :) | 01:15 |
daftykins | yep :) | 01:15 |
jake614 | do i need to reboot again to try? | 01:15 |
zomfgcrazy | So do I want to delete sda2 and install ubuntu over that space as a primary partition? | 01:15 |
daftykins | jake614: ah i'd give that a whirl yeah. i'd reboot to boot off a CD ye | 01:15 |
Linocks | exit | 01:15 |
ardchoille | rww: That worked, thank you | 01:15 |
jake614 | ok, shall do... thanks again, ill be back to let you know | 01:16 |
jake614 | which one should i try? jaunty or karmic? | 01:16 |
miki | anyone help me with my sound? | 01:16 |
Matthew11 | Can anybody help pls? I trying to set up my ubuntu (Karimc) to write a dvd+rw with packet writing, but the pktsetup needs the pktcdvd module, and it's missing. Where it can be found? | 01:16 |
jake614 | i'm most likely to keep jaunty the time being, since sound will not work on karmic | 01:16 |
Matthew11 | there is a patch for sound | 01:17 |
Matthew11 | it makes the things better | 01:17 |
daftykins | Matthew11: "udftools" package. to find that out i just ran "apt-cache search pktcdvd" | 01:18 |
Matthew11 | yes, i installed it, but the module is still missing | 01:18 |

detrix | I am still having problems getting an ASUS Eee netbook to boot off of a usb memory stick ( a SanDisk Cruzer), and the 1st partition is bootable. I set the bios 1st device to removable media, 2nd device to San Cruzer, and 3rd the internal Drive. Its seems to be trying to boot off of it, but I still get windows. Any ideas? | 01:20 |
bankix | Good eavening | 01:20 |
daftykins | detrix: what did you make it bootable with? | 01:21 |
ascheel | Windows has the false 3.75 GB RAM limit, is Linux the same or does it give a darn about it? | 01:21 |
bankix | detrix: Did you ever boot from usb stick? Did it work? | 01:21 |
detrix | I used cfdisk | 01:21 |
daftykins | ascheel: you have to run a 64-bit OS. | 01:21 |
ascheel | daftykins: run a 64-bit OS for what? | 01:21 |
daftykins | to get 4GB RAM+ to be usable. | 01:21 |
joh6nn | ascheel: to bypass the 3.5G limit | 01:21 |
ascheel | 3.75G | 01:21 |
bankix | detrix: Booting from USB stick is completely different than booting an internal harddrive. | 01:22 |
daftykins | no it's different on different computers | 01:22 |
joh6nn | tomato, tomatoh | 01:22 |
rww | It' | 01:22 |
daftykins | sometimes it's 3.5, sometimes it's 3.75, depends on your graphics card etc | 01:22 |
rww | It's 4GB total, including all forms of memory in your computer, so it generally shows up as 3.something. | 01:22 |
detrix | My wife has an Acer netbook, and it boots off of this memory stick.... | 01:22 |
rww | also, I believe Ubuntu does PAE now, but I'm not sure. | 01:23 |
bankix | detrix: use the usb-creator or UNetbootin (available for windows) for writing an ubuntu iso image to your usb stick. | 01:23 |
miki | whats a command to automaticly install sound drivers? | 01:23 |
bankix | detrix: Both programms take care of making the stick bootable. | 01:23 |
Matthew11 | miki: You shuld add the PPA that contains the upgrade | 01:23 |
bankix | detrix: The rest is to your BIOS -- different BIOSes use different methods, most work, but some fail. | 01:24 |
miki | What's the PPA? | 01:24 |

detrix | bootload | 01:27 |
miki | lspci | grep media - what's meant to happen? | 01:27 |
bankix | detrix: yes, but installing grub to the MBR of your usb-disk won't help due it will never be used by the BIOS. | 01:27 |
wolter | how do i reset my xorg.conf file? | 01:28 |
Matthew11 | miki: it isn't important now | 01:28 |
bankix | detrix: I fear you only chance is to install grub somewhere on your harddisk so it gets started. | 01:28 |
wolter | dpkg reconfigure xserver-xorg didn't work | 01:28 |
miki | OK | 01:28 |
detrix | bankix: I install it with my hard drives physically disconnected so the usb's mbr would be set up | 01:28 |

wolter | rww, karmic | 01:28 |
DexterP17 | does anyone know if it is true that Ubuntu is getting a music store? | 01:28 |
bankix | detrix: To be more verbose: When the BIOS boots an USB drive, it won't load the bootloader from the MBR. | 01:29 |
Billiard | wolter: you can run without an xorg.conf then | 01:29 |
rww | wolter: There isn't an xorg.conf by default, Xorg just uses autodetection. To get back to defaults, you'd just remove /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 01:29 |

teachprint | Problem with keyboard -- I'm using a ibm thinkpad t41 laptop, after recent upgrade my keyboard uses the numloc characters instead of regular characters, can anyone help? | 01:29 |
wolter | I don't know if that will solve my problem, Billiard / rww, I came up with it because Xorg is taking too much processor every time i wake up from suspend | 01:30 |
wolter | Billiard, but well, I will trust you and remove it | 01:30 |
wolter | backup it in case anything happens | 01:30 |
rww | wolter: You probably should have asked about that, rather than how to reset xorg.conf, then ;P | 01:30 |
bankix | detrix: A solution is to install grub and the grub files in the MBR of your internal harddisk and on a partition on this disk (the filessystem doesn't matter much). | 01:30 |
wolter | rww, well I have done that for 3 days and nobody answers, so I began to pioneer :) | 01:31 |

aliendude3500 | I don't know why I should _need_ to pay for software if I have a DVD drive... this is BS. :( | 01:38 |
joh6nn | i'm having some serious slowdown with my wireless connection, compared to the speeds that i had in both Hardy and Jaunty. I've tried disabling ipv6 and a few other things, but nothing seems to help | 01:38 |
bankix | aliendude: There are possibillities to break the copy protection, but this is prohbited in most countries. | 01:38 |
feedmecereal | Mattell: I think I tried them all but none of them seem to have a beep option. | 01:38 |
kari | aliendude3500: try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DVD::Rip | 01:38 |
bankix | aliendude3500: Thank the film studios, they're the problem. | 01:38 |
bankix | aliendude3500: They encrypt the contents using CSS. | 01:39 |
bankix | aliendude3500: So you need a DVD playing software which is capable of decrypting. | 01:39 |
aliendude3500 | Installing DVD::Rip right now... | 01:39 |
darthanubis | allenwhat is the problem, trying tol play an encrytped dvd? | 01:39 |
david16 | aliendude3500, people are worried about being sued or arrested.... You'll probably only get "hints" | 01:39 |
Dr_Willis | aliendude3500: do a total boycott of dvd/movies/music - that will show them! | 01:39 |
bankix | aliendude3500: The only legal way to do this is to buy LinDVD, from Intervideo (they do also WinDVD) | 01:39 |
feedmecereal | I tried to get some to execute the command echo -e "\a" on a new email but they don't seem to do that for some reason. Anyone have any idea why? | 01:40 |
* Dr_Willis wonders how come 'some' dvds work and others dont. perhaps some have extra tracks of content/pc content goofing things up | 01:40 | |
jellow | rww: Could you have a look at this to see if i got it right after #ADDED http://pastebin.com/m70e18aee | 01:40 |
Akkernight | on ubuntu, when I hold alt and press right click, the desktop properties show or something, the problem is that this also happens in applications like Blender, how do I disable it? | 01:40 |
darthanubis | aliendude3500, I can help you | 01:40 |
bankix | aliendude3500: BTW: It's all the same with Windows. Without a DVD player software you can't play the DVDs under windows as well. | 01:40 |
Dr_Willis | feedmecereal: thats supposed to make a 'beep' noise? | 01:40 |
darthanubis | aliendude3500, PM me | 01:40 |
feedmecereal | Dr_Willis: It does for me, try in the terminal. | 01:40 |
rww | jellow: nope. put it all on one line, something like GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="quiet splash noapic nolapic" etc. | 01:40 |
Matthew11 | feedmecereal: If you vant to build a beep in your script, use the "beep" command (install it, if it isn't installed yet) | 01:41 |
Billiard | feedmecereal: you could try the beep command in the beep package i think | 01:41 |
Matthew11 | *want | 01:41 |
bankix | Dr_Willis: Because some DVDs aren't encrypted. E.g. "Das fünfte Element" (Fifth Element) is not. | 01:41 |
Dr_Willis | feedmecereal: like the others said. use the beep command. its more relieable | 01:41 |
teachprint | Problem with keyboard -- I'm using a ibm thinkpad t41 laptop, after recent update my keyboard began using numloc characters instead of regular characters, can anyone help? | 01:41 |
feedmecereal | Thanks to both of you, I'll try that. | 01:41 |
kari | aliendude3500: you need to lrn2google | 01:41 |
kari | aliendude3500: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs | 01:41 |
Dr_Willis | bankix: hes saying that come comercial encrypted dvd's do work.. and some comercial encrypted ones dont. | 01:41 |
Dr_Willis | at least i think thats what he said | 01:42 |
rww | ubottu: google | kari | 01:42 |
ubottu | kari: While Google is useful for helpers, many newer users don't have the google-fu yet. Please don't tell people to "google it" when they ask a question. | 01:42 |
kari | i didn't | 01:42 |
kari | i told him to do it next time, and then linked him | 01:43 |
bankix | Dr_Willis: How did he find out the disk was encrypted? However, if one encrypted disk works, others will do as well. | 01:43 |
kari | o wait, am i arguing with a bot? | 01:43 |
Matthew11 | Hm. I formated a dvd+rw in my desktop computer, and now, my laptop even cant't recognise the disc XD | 01:43 |
bankix | kari: Yes, you are ;-) | 01:43 |
Dr_Willis | bankix: ask him. I dont use dvd's any more | 01:43 |
kari | damn | 01:43 |
jake614 | hi, everyone! id be so thankful if someone could help me, my usb ports are not working | 01:44 |
joh6nn | i'm having some serious slowdown with my wireless connection, compared to the speeds that i had in both Hardy and Jaunty. I've tried disabling ipv6 and a few other things, but nothing seems to help | 01:44 |
bankix | Dr_Willis: Same with me. I said everything I could legally. | 01:44 |
miki | does anyone have a resoultion? | 01:44 |
* Dr_Willis guesses that most comercial movie dvd's you buy in the stores are encrypted. | 01:44 | |
bankix | Dr_Willis: In Germany, it's even prohibited to tell people how to bypass those content protections... | 01:44 |
rww | Most commercial DVDs will work fine with libdvdcss. A small minority will not. | 01:44 |
kari | on windows, DVD43 is my choise, but i don't know what works on ubuntu | 01:44 |
Dr_Willis | bankix: you bypass them by using a dvd player.. are those legal to sell? :) | 01:45 |
jake614 | can anyone help me with my usb ports? | 01:45 |
Matthew11 | jake614: What device what you are trying to connect? | 01:45 |
jake614 | i have a webcam, a usb flash disk and a mouse | 01:45 |
jellow | rww: Like this then http://pastebin.com/m5389d560 , Not sure should add to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="" or the *_DEFAULT one | 01:45 |
Matthew11 | and they are neither work? | 01:46 |
jake614 | i already tried removing the battery and tried to run from a live cd | 01:46 |
jake614 | none of them are working now, but i know these devices should work | 01:46 |
bankix | Dr_Willis: Hmmm, interesting point, but I don't want to be the one trying out if this way is legal :-) | 01:46 |
Matthew11 | what is the dmesg last few lines after connecting a device? | 01:46 |
feedmecereal | Hi again. I just tried using the beep command with cGmail and that doesn't seem to work. I do have the package beep installed and it does work in the terminal. Any ideas? | 01:46 |
jake614 | let me do that right away | 01:47 |
Billiard | feedmecereal: could try specifing the full path to beep for cGmail maybe? do any commands run by cGmail work? | 01:47 |
Gran_Ger | Hi there! Using Karmic as Live CD, the monitor starts blinking at the login, but not into graphics mode, but in text mode | 01:48 |
rww | jellow: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX propagates to all linux lines in Grub. GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX doesn't propagate to recovery lines. | 01:48 |
Gran_Ger | I have the same issue at two computers | 01:48 |
jake614 | Matthew11 it won't let me copy paste | 01:48 |
feedmecereal | Billiard: I'll try that, hold on. | 01:48 |
rww | jellow: sorry, second one should be GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT | 01:48 |
bankix | Gran_Ger: Which graphics cards? | 01:48 |

FloodBot4 | jake614: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 01:48 |
Gran_Ger | the second one I don't know, I have to recheck | 01:49 |
jake614 | sorry for flooding | 01:49 |
rww | jellow: so yes, that pastebin you just did would work, assuming you don't want those options to be used in recovery mode. | 01:49 |
bankix | Gran_Ger: Hm, GeForce 6500 should work for all I know. | 01:49 |
Staatsfeind | libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory but the lib is installed. should i do this: http://www.joewein.de/sw/swnotes002.htm | 01:49 |
Matthew11 | jake614: try another usb port | 01:49 |
Staatsfeind | i am on karmic | 01:49 |
jellow | rww: thanks, so second one is good as if i mess up i won't have options at boot | 01:50 |
jake614 | i have tried all 4 of them | 01:50 |
rww | jellow: indeed | 01:50 |
Gran_Ger | That's true, I was working fine with that computer until 9.04 version | 01:50 |
bankix | Gran_Ger: Is it the same monitor for both computers? | 01:50 |
Gran_Ger | No, It's diferent | 01:50 |
rww | jellow: so yes, when you have it like you want it, sudo update-grub to apply. | 01:50 |
benkillin | so by default the ubuntu 9.04 box I was admining had /bin/sh as a default shell for accounts that should not be logged into like www-data and service acounts like that, so I changed them all to /bin/false. why was it set as default to be a valid shell to login as? even though there was no password set (* was in the passwd hash field) ? | 01:50 |
jellow | rww: Many thanks for your help! xD | 01:50 |
Gran_Ger | And is the AMD-64 version | 01:50 |
feedmecereal | Billiard: no commands work with cGmail and specifying the full path doesn't seem to work either. I guess I'll try another program. Thanks. | 01:50 |
bankix | Gran_Ger: I hoped for an easy solution :-) | 01:50 |
DexterP17 | How can i get facebook to appear on empathy | 01:50 |
Matthew11 | jake614: is the usb worked before? | 01:50 |
jake614 | just so you know, i had jaunty installed after it was released and everything worked smoothly, then updated to karmic and still everything was working just fine | 01:51 |
jake614 | like a month ago, after an update they stopped working | 01:51 |
cornbreadly_ | i dont think facebook can work with empathy | 01:51 |
Dr_Willis | bankix: it seems LEGAL copies of that movie (blueray) have problems playing in legal players. :) isetn that nice... | 01:51 |
jake614 | then i downgraded to jaunty again b/c of sound issues | 01:51 |
adubzzz | how can i find the ntp servers of a given network | 01:51 |
jake614 | yes, everything worked just fine before | 01:52 |
bankix | Gran_Ger: Have a look at /var/log/Xorg.0.log at the command line. The last lines should tell you what's going wrong with the graphic mode. | 01:52 |
bankix | Gran_Ger: Oh, you do see the splash animation during the boot? | 01:52 |
Matthew11 | jake614: Is there any operating system installed, that can handle the devices? | 01:52 |
jake614 | i only have jaunty installed | 01:53 |
bankix | Dr_Willis: Really nice! So nice, that I'll not risk my money facing those problems -- and just ignore everything "blu" :-) | 01:53 |
Gran_Ger | Ok. For the AMD-64 computer with the GE-Force card, at live cd works fine | 01:53 |
Gran_Ger | the instalation was the problem | 01:53 |
detrix | bankix: Hey, I got the full install mem stick to boot. thanks for your help. | 01:53 |
jake614 | i dont think its the devices though, all of them worked before and none is working now, and ive tried in all ports | 01:53 |
Matthew11 | jake614: Have you got any other liveCD? | 01:54 |
bankix | detrix: Ŵhat was the problem if I may ask? | 01:54 |
jake614 | the mouse will even blink | 01:54 |
JohnTeddy | How can I tell what version of alsa I'm running right now? | 01:54 |
zeta- | Is it possible to replicate my Karmic installation onto a new partition I've created on a 2nd drive? | 01:54 |
zeta- | Just copy preserving permissions? I can alter the boot menu myself. | 01:54 |
JohnTeddy | meaning currently running in my kernel, not installed package | 01:54 |
bankix | Gran_Ger: Ah, if you use the live system, everything is fine, but if you boot your installed system, the graphics mode won't come up? | 01:54 |
jake614 | Matthew11 no, i dont... is there something else i can try? | 01:54 |
Staatsfeind | nobody an idea? | 01:54 |
detrix | bankix: pretty much a bios setting. there is a boot priority, and then a setting for which drive is the first drive. | 01:55 |
Matthew11 | jake614: My soundcard also deffected by one moment to the secound. So i want to sure if it isn't a hardware problem | 01:55 |
Staatsfeind | libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory what shall i do if the lib IS installed | 01:55 |
bankix | detrix: That easy? Great! | 01:55 |
detrix | bankix: it was the latter option that was needed. to set the san cruzer to be the 1st drive | 01:55 |
rww | Staatsfeind: are you using 32-bit or 64-bit Ubuntu? | 01:55 |
toastedmilk | I'm trying to connect to the internet on a different computer, but sudo lshw -C netowrk is saying that wlan0 is disabled. How can I fix this? | 01:55 |
Staatsfeind | 64bit | 01:55 |
rww | Staatsfeind: is the program you're trying to run 32-bit? | 01:56 |
Gran_Ger | that's true into that computer. | 01:56 |
jake614 | Matthew11 everything worked perfectly on this laptop out of the box when i installed jaunty... lost sound with karmic, but usb was still working fine | 01:56 |
Gran_Ger | I had to make the installation without the live mode | 01:56 |
bankix | Gran_Ger: OK. And you did install the proprietary Nvidia driver, right? | 01:56 |
Staatsfeind | rww i am not 100% sure. PTC.PRO.ENGINEER.WILDFIRE.v3.0.M080.LINUX | 01:56 |
Gran_Ger | but directly to the Installation opcion | 01:56 |
detrix | bankix: and that the removable media had higher priority. ;) | 01:56 |
jake614 | Matthew11: sound is back now i put jaunty back, but usb is not | 01:56 |
teachprint | Problem with keyboard -- I'm using an ibm thinkpad t41 laptop, after recent update my keyboard began using numloc characters instead of regular characters, can anyone help? | 01:56 |
Gran_Ger | Yep bankix | 01:56 |
rww | Staatsfeind: if it is, you probably need to install the "ia32-libs" package | 01:57 |
Gran_Ger | Now, that computer is working, but sometimes freezes | 01:57 |
bankix | Gran_Ger: Let me guess, there was a kernel update before your problems? | 01:57 |
Gran_Ger | nop, bankix | 01:57 |
Staatsfeind | rww: i have already installed this for poweriso | 01:57 |
Talon_ | I was here a couple days ago, asking about ram usage inside ubuntu 9.10, I had 1gb and tried running a virtual machine (windows xp) with virtual box. 83% of my memory was used. | 01:57 |
bankix | Gran_Ger: OK, check with "lsmod" if the nvidia module is loaded. | 01:57 |
Matthew11 | jake614: Try the karmic again (as a live cd). If it works, there is an unoffical upgrade that makes the sound much better | 01:57 |
bankix | Gran_Ger: If not, try to load it manually. | 01:58 |
Staatsfeind | rww: should i do this: http://www.joewein.de/sw/swnotes002.htm | 01:58 |
Staatsfeind | rww: dont know what was meant with linux 7 | 01:58 |
bankix | Gran_Ger: Via "modprobe nvidia". | 01:58 |

Talon_ | using system monitor and my new machine I built to accomidate this, I now have 8gb of ram, and it's still using it ALL! gnomes system monitor shows 16% used by programs and 83% as cache | 01:58 |
jake614 | Matthew11: no, sound was completely gone | 01:58 |

blakkheim | Talon_: i don't think you understand how ram works in linux | 01:59 |
karpus | deluge 1.2 on ubuntu 9.10 is using up to 80-90% of my cpu while downloading torrents, is there any way to fix that? :\ | 01:59 |
jake614 | Matthew11: i'd rather keep jaunty, sound is not an issue anymore, but i'd like to make usb devices work | 01:59 |
Matthew11 | jake614: Well i don't have any further idea right now | 02:00 |
blakkheim | Talon_: free -m | grep buffers | 02:00 |
Talon_ | so does cache matter? 16+83 = 99, i assumed 99% of my ram is in use | 02:00 |
Matthew11 | Maybe someone else can help you | 02:00 |
Dr_Willis | Talon_: so its used as cache.. that how its supposed to work | 02:00 |
jake614 | Matthew11: okay, thanks for your time! | 02:00 |
bankix | Gran_Ger: Hm? When does the computer freeze? I think it's blinking some times? | 02:00 |
Matthew11 | your welcome | 02:00 |
cornbreadly_ | anyone know offhand how I can pause music in banshee, to listen to some sound from a youtube video in chrome? 9.10? | 02:01 |
jake614 | can anyone else help with usb ports? | 02:01 |
Gran_Ger | the blinking problem was after the installation, But I fix it making a Direct installation, and making at the end the activation of the drivers | 02:01 |
joh6nn | i'm having some serious slowdown with my wireless connection, compared to the speeds that i had in both Hardy and Jaunty. I've tried disabling ipv6 and a few other things, but nothing seems to help | 02:01 |

Talon_ | blakkheim: free -m | grep buffers shows used: 1332, Free: 6671 | 02:01 |
Gran_Ger | The freezes, that is the actual problem is trying to see some videos | 02:02 |
blakkheim | Talon_: so there's your actual usage | 02:02 |
jake614 | cornbreadly_: my usb devices will not work | 02:02 |
bankix | Gran_Ger: Sorry, I'm puzzeled now. What is your problem? | 02:02 |
rww | Staatsfeind: hmm, weird, I can't find that specific .so in the repositories. I'm out of ideas, sorry :( | 02:02 |
Gran_Ger | the freezes for that computer, the blinking for the another computer | 02:02 |
cornbreadly_ | ok have you run lsusb? | 02:02 |

cornbreadly_ | does it look like anything you have plugged in is showing? | 02:03 |
Talon_ | so what is "cached" then in the system monitor? | 02:03 |
zhuzhixin | hello all, quick question. I just now download a fiction with stk extension, but i don't know howto open it. Can someone give me a suggestion. | 02:04 |
cornbreadly_ | here is an example | 02:04 |
cornbreadly_ | http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/usb-guide.xml | 02:04 |
kuja605 | can anyone point me to the Ubuntu room for general chat? | 02:04 |
jake614 | thank you | 02:04 |
bankix | Talon_: Nothing is cached in the system monitor, your RAM is used as disk cache. That's all. | 02:04 |
boss_mc | kuja605: #ubuntu-ot | 02:04 |
rww | kuja605, boss_mc: #ubuntu-offtopic, not -ot | 02:05 |
kuja605 | brilliant, cheers :D | 02:05 |
jake614 | Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub | 02:05 |
jake614 | this is what i get | 02:05 |
boss_mc | kuja605: apologies, i was confused by !ot | 02:05 |
zeta- | Staatsfeind: do you get the error during boot? could be that /usr is not mounted at that point (if you have separate partitions) | 02:05 |
bankix | jake614: Remove the device in question. Call "lsusb". Then connect the device, run "lsusb" again. Find the new line and post this. | 02:05 |
adubzzz | how can i find the ntp server of a given network | 02:05 |
Talon_ | so i shouldnt lose any performance if say i started a game? | 02:06 |
adubzzz | that i am currenlty on | 02:06 |
Talon_ | the "cached" ram gets written to disc to accomidate the program that needs ram? | 02:06 |
kuja605 | oh and could anyone point me to somewhere that easily explains the linux filesystem for someone whos pretty new to it? | 02:06 |
bankix | Talon_: The cache will _improve_ your system performance. Nothing to worry about. | 02:06 |
bankix | Talon_: Most is _read_ cache, not write cache, so the content gets just freed and overwritten when needed. | 02:07 |
jake614 | bankix: just did that, the lines are the exactly the same | 02:07 |
bankix | jake: So, regardless if the usb device is connected or not, lsusb shows the same? | 02:07 |
Dr_Willis | adubzzz: you could nmap scan the network | 02:08 |
bankix | jake614: Just to get this point sure. | 02:08 |
jake614 | bankix: yes thats right | 02:08 |
bankix | jake614: Are there other devices listed than "Linux Foundation" root hubs? | 02:09 |
jake614 | bankix: no, i got two linux foundation 1.1 and one 2.0 | 02:09 |
Talon_ | so what is swap space then, it's never used, least it hasnt been since system monitor's been monitoring it | 02:09 |
=== zach is now known as Guest84878 | ||
adubzzz | what is the linux command to display current date and time | 02:10 |
bankix | jake614: Not good. This means your USB device doesn't communicate as it should. Which kind of device is it? | 02:10 |
adubzzz | nvm its date | 02:11 |
adubzzz | lol | 02:11 |
rww | adubzzz: date | 02:11 |
rww | :) | 02:11 |
jake614 | bankix: right now i have a webcam plugged in, but my mouse, usb flash, and cellphone dont respond either | 02:11 |
jake614 | and all of them worked in the past | 02:11 |
bankix | Talon_: Swap space is disk space (usually a partition on your disk) used as RAM extension, for the case you have more data than physical RAM. Of course darn slow, so normally unused. | 02:11 |
bankix | jake: Hm. Maybe the USB stack is stuck. At least keyboard, camera, etc. should show up via lsusb when they're connected. | 02:12 |
jake614 | bankix: my mouse will blink sometimes, but it wont work, my usb flash does not blink anymore | 02:12 |

MauritianGuy | i got a lil issue prior to trying to install a beta driver i got further than before but now its telling me that i need to quit X server and someting like that i got a log file with the three errors | 02:13 |

jake614 | bankix: no | 02:14 |
bankix | jake614: Hm, how did you enter "lsusb" then? Or is your USB keyboard working? | 02:14 |

aboyd | hi everyone, I have a bit of a problem, and if anyone can help, that would be great. So, I have ubuntu installed on an external hard drive, and my cousin unplugged it while it was running. I fixed the install and it now loads again, but when I click on any of the folders to access the file system, it shows that it is opening, but it never loads. ANy thoughts? | 02:16 |
Dr_Willis | Real_Ubot: from what i gather just a few bits get changed. :) so they appear in teh other place | 02:16 |
bankix | jake614: Then connect the external keyboard and check if it shows up in "lsusb". | 02:16 |
jake614 | bankix: i have tried that several times | 02:16 |
Droll_Trollerson | aboyd: First, kill your cousin. | 02:16 |
jake614 | bankix: and i dont have an external keyboard, what i have is an external mouse | 02:16 |
aboyd | haha i wish I could | 02:16 |
Droll_Trollerson | aboyd: You /can!/ | 02:17 |
bankix | jake614: Okay, then start with the mouse. | 02:17 |
MauritianGuy | i was also wondering if you guys could help me modify the permission so i can edit a log file in etc//file.log so that i can use an application as my default user | 02:17 |
jake614 | bankix: ok, shall try | 02:17 |
Droll_Trollerson | aboyd: Set your mind to it. | 02:17 |
ralphv2 | I'm the only one here using Xircon | 02:17 |
bankix | jake614: When connected solely, it should really show up in your lsusb list. | 02:17 |
zenlunatic | MauritianGuy: why did you want to edit log files? | 02:17 |
Dr_Willis | MauritianGuy: log files in /etc/ ? thats odd.. normally they are in /var/log/* | 02:17 |
Real_Ubot | Dr_Willis: I mean if I have a file containging like "secret" data and moves it to another folder. Then I remove it using shred or wipe. Will it still be able to get the data from the place the file once was located? | 02:17 |
grkblood13 | how do you allow remote desktop access from the cli? | 02:18 |
bankix | jake614: If it doesn't, there is either a hardware problem with the mouse or some relly weired problem with the USB/mainboard chipset. | 02:18 |
aboyd | droll_trollerson: no then I would be killed... anyway... | 02:18 |
Dr_Willis | Real_Ubot: shred/wipe overwrite the file several times copy it.. then shred it. i guess. | 02:18 |

Dr_Willis | grkblood13: vnc can do more then 'share the current' desktop. Its a very flexiable tool | 02:19 |
FiReSTaRT | Guys, I'm trying to get my media box set up, and it's mostly working. Now these instructions indicate that I have to have my xbmc session "auth'd properly" to be able to suspend/resume with the remote.. What does that mean and how do i do it? | 02:19 |
FiReSTaRT | http://www.excentral.org/archives/2009/11/08/enabling-suspendresume-with-xbmc-in-ubuntu-9-10 | 02:19 |
FiReSTaRT | As of 9.11 alpha 2, XBMC uses ConsoleKit in the Karmic packages so you need to make sure your session gets auth’d properly or you’ll end up with permission denied messages in the xbmc logs when it tries to suspend. | 02:19 |
s0n1c800m | aboyd: you wouldn't have to worry about the hd, tho | 02:19 |
MauritianGuy | Dr_Willis and Zenlunatic i am trying to run an application but when i went to the website its telling me to edit a file so that i can use it otherwise i will have to run it as sudo | 02:19 |

MauritianGuy | but i tried to run the file as sudo but i am still getting errory guess | 02:20 |
zenlunatic | MauritianGuy: you arent making sense | 02:20 |
MauritianGuy | lol | 02:20 |
Droll_Trollerson | Dr_Willis: huh? You jump the good ship Puppy Linux? | 02:20 |
Dr_Willis | MauritianGuy: i doubt if it wants you to edit a LOG file.. what file is it wanting you to mess with? You can just alter the file with root permissions ionce and be done with it i imagine | 02:20 |
MauritianGuy | can i pm u zenlunatic | 02:20 |
zenlunatic | yea sure | 02:20 |
Dr_Willis | Droll_Trollerson: puppy sort of sunk for me. I only used it in special cases anyway | 02:20 |
Droll_Trollerson | Dr_Willis: Ah. To each his/her own, I guess. | 02:21 |
aboyd | s0n1c800m: true, but I prefer him alive... he can come in handy... anyway, any real help to fix this stupid thing would be great... | 02:21 |

jake614 | bankix: i see.. is there a way to check on bios settings? | 02:46 |

bankix | jake614: Just have a look at everything in your BIOS referencing "USB". USB should be enabled, USB 2.0 as well, and USB Legacy Support should be enabled. | 02:46 |
randy_ | any gamers here? | 02:46 |
MauritianGuy | i will reboot and try the appearence properties Billiard | 02:47 |
Billiard | MauritianGuy: ok | 02:47 |
Siria_Calv | Where can I get a free video converter capable of converting videos to .asf from .avi and .flv? | 02:47 |
MauritianGuy | brb | 02:47 |
jake614 | i do not now how to look at that though | 02:47 |
bankix | jake614: Depending on your BIOS, you wiill see more or less USB related menu points. Difficult to point you the way more precise. | 02:47 |
Billiard | randy_: probably there are 12xx people here, just ask your question | 02:47 |
randy_ | i did | 02:47 |
jake614 | i'm sorry, i'm not that computer savvy | 02:47 |
jake614 | where is the bios menu? | 02:48 |

Gapppy | super buton = windows button | 02:55 |

maco | matelot: i think | 02:55 |
deena | Hi anyone can explain how nat works | 02:55 |
lucascastro | you have to take from the sun repository cause that you download from ubuntu repository virtualbox-ose there's not so good | 02:55 |
Dr_Willis | HomingHamster: if we say no.. :) what would you do then? | 02:55 |
daftykins | deena: rewriting source and destination IP packet headers | 02:55 |
Dr_Willis | !nat | 02:55 |
HomingHamster | Dr_Willis: be rather confused, i've been struggleing with my firewall and cgi-irc etc. | 02:55 |
Dr_Willis | deena: there used to be a decent ip-masquerading howto. | 02:55 |
deena | see i installed virutal box and running opensolaris inside it.. | 02:55 |
soreau | matelot: Super is the Windows key and Buttons4/5 are scroll up/down | 02:56 |

matelot | soreau - so for the compiz binding "<super>button4" means hold down super while pushing the wheels ? | 02:57 |
fuzzy` | awesome with linux :) | 02:57 |
deena | but my main pc is working 192.x. series | 02:57 |
lucascastro | /J #ubuntu-server | 02:57 |
deena | how it works | 02:57 |
daftykins | deena: can you ping your router? (if you use one) | 02:57 |
daftykins | from the VM i mean | 02:57 |
neil_d | I have 2 sata drives rigged as a RAID 1 :) but when I remove a HDD (for testing) initramfs doesn't start md0 correctly :( it sets the only drive as a spare.. but I can manually stop and assemble the drive OK (degraded).. what is wrong? | 02:58 |
soreau | matelot: It means hold Super while scrolling the wheel (not clicking it) | 02:58 |
matelot | soreau, ok | 02:58 |
matelot | thanks | 02:58 |
bankix | deena: You're using NAT in VirtualBox. | 02:59 |
deena | yes | 02:59 |
deena | how it works thats my question is | 03:00 |
bankix | deena: So your guest system gets 10.0.2.3 for default | 03:00 |
deena | yes | 03:00 |
deena | global system is having 192.x.x.x | 03:00 |
deena | series | 03:00 |
deena | how it happens | 03:00 |
bankix | deena: And the VirtualBox is doing the translation. You can reach your serving system on IP 10.0.2.2 | 03:00 |
wojciech | !myaccess | 03:00 |
deena | from global i am not able to ping | 03:01 |
deena | if i try 10.0.2.2 | 03:01 |
bankix | deena: VirtualBox acts as a normal router does, the only difference is that your gateway is 10.0.2.2 and not .2.1 as usual. | 03:01 |
Dr_Willis | deena: you may want to check the virtualbox docs on how it does the networking. I normally set my vbox setups where they appear as a normal machine on the lan. (ip range 192.168.1.X) | 03:01 |
joh6nn | zomfgcrazy: sorry, got called away for a moment | 03:01 |
bankix | deena: So if you want to log into your host system, you do a ssh to 10.0.2.2. | 03:01 |
allyourbass | having some trouble with usb volumes not auto mounting | 03:02 |
allyourbass | IO charset iso8859-1 not found | 03:02 |
deena | i am able to ping from quest to global... but i am not from global to quest | 03:02 |
allyourbass | http://pastebin.com/m2b1143a | 03:02 |
bankix | deena: deena: from inside of your guest system, of course | 03:02 |
allyourbass | any takers? | 03:02 |
deena | that is why wondering how this nat is working | 03:02 |
Blue1 | deena: it's magic... | 03:02 |
bankix | deena: Yes, you can't reach your guest system from outside of VirtualBox because of the NAT. | 03:03 |
deena | what i have to do if i want to ping from global to guest | 03:03 |
=== David is now known as Guest77373 | ||
daftykins | deena: basically when a packet comes from a VM e.g. 10.0.0.2 the router between your real network 192.168.0.x will rewrite the source IP as being itself, so then the real network will pass it to the router. then the router rewrites the packet header with the destination of the guest and so it arrives there | 03:03 |
bankix | deena: VirtualBox does not set up a corresponding network device with the host's IP 10.0.2.2, it's some kind of "embedded" networking device | 03:03 |
zomfgcrazy | I had a working dualboot of WinXP and Ubuntu goin, but the ubuntu install was a logical partition, so i deleted sda2 (the partition it was inside, i guess?) and now I rebooted and i get an error GRUB loading. Error: no such partition grub rescue> _... ..i never touched the windows install.. any ideas why it doesn't just boot into windows now and/or how i can fix it? if i boot from the ubuntu live cd it shows the windows inst | 03:03 |
daftykins | deena: it's probably default virtualbox firewall'ing blocking ping the other way | 03:03 |
Guest77373 | . | 03:03 |
bankix | deena: In fact, VirtualBox just seeds the packages directly into the networking layer. | 03:04 |
daftykins | zomfgcrazy: is it XP? | 03:04 |
zomfgcrazy | yes | 03:04 |
bankix | deena: So you can't ping, ssh or what ever your guest from outside of virtual box when using NAT | 03:04 |
bankix | deena: If you need access to your guest system, you'll have to use bridging instead of NAT. | 03:04 |
daftykins | zomfgcrazy: boot the windows CD to recovery console and run "fixboot" then "fixmbr" then it'll be pure windows again. then install ubuntu | 03:04 |
zomfgcrazy | daftykins, thank you. would it take more than a few lines to explain what happened so as to not do it again? | 03:05 |
deena | in case of briding i have to configure same network range only am i right | 03:05 |
bankix | deena: Then your network card acts like a network switch and you connect both, your host system and your guest, to this switch -- both getting one exclusive IP through DHCP. | 03:05 |
allyourbass | anyone else having troubles with usb media not mounting ? | 03:05 |
deena | example 192.x.x.x from to guest to global same series | 03:05 |
daftykins | zomfgcrazy: i'm afraid i've no idea why GRUB was already present if you dont have ubuntu installed. that partition before was just empty really | 03:05 |
zomfgcrazy | daftykins, thank you. | 03:06 |
daftykins | zomfgcrazy: np. this is another option too: http://www.arsgeek.com/2008/01/15/how-to-fix-your-windows-mbr-with-an-ubuntu-livecd/ | 03:06 |
bankix | deena: No, using a different IP address for you guest won't help anything. If you need to connect to your guest system, your only chance is setting up network-bridging. | 03:06 |

goose_ | wish^: if you want to keep windows, backup whatever ubuntu files you want to keep, then uninstall Ubuntu from windows. Then, put the Ubuntu CD in, and restart you computer, and boot from CD. When it asks you during install if you want to split your HD between windows and Ubuntu, then you choose what you want, and the installer does the rest! | 03:13 |
Dr_Willis | err thats not really 'converting' a wubi install to a 'full' install. :) in my mind.. | 03:14 |
unop | tcarter, you probably needed to use sudo? | 03:14 |
Dr_Willis | do a normal install, mount the 'wubi' installed file/filesystem copy stuff over.. may work easier also. | 03:15 |

Dr_Willis | zomfgcrazy: stick with ext4 then | 03:39 |
Siria_Calv | Sememmon, have you left your computer and its wifi antenna on since it worked yesterday? I have experiance sometimes that a wifi antenna that has been left on will have trouble connecting eventually after being left on too long. | 03:39 |
Dr_Willis | zomfgcrazy: if you dont know linux basics. why are you even worrying about all this> the normal install should do fine for you | 03:40 |
Jeeves | how can I fix my GRUB2 install? I had to repair XP, then I had to reinstall windows 7, and now I can't get GRUB to work | 03:40 |
zomfgcrazy | Dr_Willis: Understood. At this point I would like WinXP to stay as the default boot partition (so if I don't touch anything it boots to windows). Would I set that here or later? | 03:40 |
Sememmon | Siria_Calv: I've restarted. Also restarted the wap just to make sure. I'm getting better wifi performance on my cell phone =P | 03:40 |
Sememmon | tried downgrading to an older kernel .. seems to be a bit better. | 03:40 |
coz_ | Johnnny1234 | 03:41 |
zomfgcrazy | Dr_Willis: I would like to dual-boot and i've been told primary is the way to go for <= 4 partitions, and i'll be using <= 4. | 03:41 |
Jeeves | how can I fix my GRUB2 install? I had to repair XP, then I had to reinstall windows 7, and now I can't get GRUB to work | 03:41 |
neil_d | A mdadm raid1 doesn't seem to work on this motherboard!! if I was to plug the drives into a cheap PCI raid card, could I boot of that raid card? | 03:41 |
Dr_Willis | zomfgcrazy: You repartiioon/resize your drive to haev a section of it be 'unallocated' and you just tell the ubuntu installer to use the unallocated space.. thats about all there is to it. | 03:41 |
k3rn | Dr_Willis: wehn i use nosplash i see the bootup outputs but i can't see any of my script. | 03:41 |
coz_ | johnny1243, hey guy did you try to unplug the monitor and then reboot into the live cd? | 03:41 |
Dr_Willis | zomfgcrazy: its not really going to matter if its primary or not. | 03:41 |
coz_ | johnny1243, both monitors attached are going to exceed the MAX_TEXTURE size hardware limitation | 03:41 |
Dr_Willis | zomfgcrazy: or resize windows - make unallocated space.. partiton the unallocated space to make a / /home and swap partition then tell the installer to use them | 03:42 |
coz_ | johnny1243, once installed you can set the resolutions for both monitors so that it doesnt exceed the MAX_Texture in any one direction | 03:42 |
zomfgcrazy | Dr_Willis: Okay. Well, extra knowledge is never (rarely?) a bad thing. ^.^ Would I set WinXP to be default boot in GRUB here or later? | 03:42 |
Dr_Willis | zomfgcrazy: somthing like --> (sda1 Windows) (sda2 /) (sda3 /home) (sda4 swap) | 03:42 |
Dr_Willis | zomfgcrazy: you tweak grub later. | 03:42 |
Jeeves | how can I fix my GRUB2 install? I had to repair XP, then I had to reinstall windows 7, and now I can't get GRUB to work | 03:43 |
Dr_Willis | !grub2 | Jeeves | 03:44 |
ubottu | Jeeves: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 03:44 |
johnny1243 | coz_, so I should set the resolution lower and install | 03:44 |
Jeeves | ubottu: you suck | 03:44 |
Jeeves | and for the reccord, I know it's a bot | 03:44 |
zomfgcrazy | Dr_Willis: I have decided to go back and tell it to just use 'largest contiguous free space' so I don't have to set up a swap. Where would I tweak grub to change the list of boot options? | 03:45 |
rww | Jeeves: have you tried https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Recover%20Grub%202%20via%20LiveCD on the page it linked to? | 03:45 |
Dr_Willis | zomfgcrazy: you are confused.. it will STILL use/make a swap partition. | 03:45 |
johnny1243 | coz_, also about installing i wanted to have a separate , /boot, /, /home partition I have done it before and I cannot resize this huge partition in gpart | 03:46 |
coz_ | johnny1243, first I would reboot with just the laptop screen into the live cd | 03:46 |
Dr_Willis | zomfgcrazy: grub2 is confuigured by the /etc/default/grub and /etc/grub.d/* files | 03:46 |
Sememmon | I've been told that others are also having recent wifi speed issues | 03:46 |
johnny1243 | coz_, I think I would get a blank screen | 03:46 |
johnny1243 | coz_, but I will try | 03:46 |
coz_ | johnny1243, ok I may not be the best person to talk with about partitioning | 03:46 |
rerorerorero | Hello. Is there a way to prevent Samba from scanning the LAN? | 03:46 |
Dr_Willis | zomfgcrazy: that option i think will resize your windows partitions and then use the free space. (i think) | 03:46 |
zomfgcrazy | Dr_Willis: I am very confused. But thank you for trying. ^.^ | 03:46 |
coz_ | johnny1243, I would try that first just to test it make sure the monitor is unplugged | 03:46 |
johnny1243 | coz_, the screen stuff was help full | 03:46 |
johnny1243 | coz_, let me reboot then | 03:47 |
coz_ | johnny1243, the max texture size is unfortunately a hardware limitiation that cannot be changed to my knowledge | 03:47 |
rerorerorero | I don't trust some people on my LAN and I would like to shut off the LAN users or stop trying to ping them or whatever. | 03:47 |
rerorerorero | Is it possible? | 03:47 |
Dr_Willis | rerorerorero: proberly if you give more details about what you are trying to do exactly and your setup | 03:48 |
neil_d | A mdadm raid1 doesn't seem to work on this motherboard!! if I was to plug the drives into a cheap PCI raid card, could I boot of that raid card? | 03:48 |
Dr_Willis | Protecting your pc from the rest of the LAN? or protecting the network from idiot users? :) | 03:48 |
johnny1243 | coz_, how do I change it | 03:49 |
tucemiux | anyone knows how I can specify the classpath for java? | 03:49 |
Armando | hello | 03:49 |
coz_ | johnny1243, max texture size?? you cant unless you get a higher end video card | 03:49 |
termitor | hello | 03:49 |
Armando | I wanna go to spanish chanel | 03:50 |
Staatsfeind | error while loading shared libraries: libtiff.so.3: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64 what can i do? | 03:50 |
johnny1243 | coz_, no like lower my monitor to the correct one but I just thought of how display in settings right | 03:50 |
Dr_Willis | !es | Armando | 03:50 |
ubottu | Armando: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. | 03:50 |
Armando | ok | 03:51 |
rerorerorero | dr_willis: Rest of the LAN would do, but it's mostly idiot users, the reason. | 03:51 |
coz_ | johnny1243, right | 03:51 |
Armando | thank you | 03:51 |
johnny1243 | coz_, what should I lower it to | 03:51 |
Ademan | is there any comprehensive list of default compose-key combinations anywhere? | 03:51 |
mdg | hello | 03:51 |
Dr_Willis | rerorerorero: by default theres no services on ubuntu - so i doubt if they are going to get to your machine and do anything. | 03:51 |
johnny1243 | coz_, this is not cool thought this laptop does 1920 by 1200 screen res and it is old really old | 03:52 |
Dr_Willis | rerorerorero: if you wanted to be truely paranoid install the variouys firewall tools/setup a firewall and logwatch to watch for access attempts | 03:52 |
Flotonoc | Would it be smarter to run the 32-Bit Ubuntu OS on a 64-Bit processor or just go with the 64-Bit version? | 03:52 |
rerorerorero | I keep getting netbios and smb traffic to their computers. And although I have nothing shared I fear someone would do like "hey he's there let's try something" | 03:52 |
Dr_Willis | Flotonoc: if i can use 64bit - i use 64bit | 03:52 |
joh6nn | i'm having some serious slowdown with my wireless connection, compared to the speeds that i had in both Hardy and Jaunty. I've tried disabling ipv6 and a few other things, but nothing seems to help | 03:52 |
termitor | :p , who what to test with me, a hi res webcam ? | 03:52 |
johnny1243 | coz_, thanks for the help | 03:52 |
Ademan | Flotonoc: In my opinion 64 bit problems outweigh any advantages | 03:53 |
coz_ | johnny1243, well the live cd should pick up the correct resolution even if it is safe graphics mode you use | 03:53 |
termitor | who whan | 03:53 |
neil_d | If I was to get a cheap PCI RAID card (e.g. http://www.mwave.com.au/newAU/mwaveAU/productdetail.asp?SKU=22080353&utm_source=getprice&utm_medium=cpc) could I boot from it? | 03:53 |
Flotonoc | What do you mean? | 03:53 |
semitones | Flotonoc: it depends on what you want to use it fore | 03:53 |
Dr_Willis | I cant even recall any problems ive had with 64bit in the last year+ | 03:53 |
semitones | *for | 03:53 |
Flotonoc | It outweighs? | 03:53 |
Flotonoc | Ohh. | 03:53 |
Flotonoc | I see. | 03:53 |
johnny1243 | coz_, pick it with the install or when booting up | 03:53 |
semitones | Flotonoc: it doesn't | 03:53 |
semitones | Flotonoc: I'm using it right now | 03:53 |
cvd | Ademan, only if you use linux | 03:53 |
Flotonoc | I heard that there are no performance changes when you go with 32-Bit over 64-Bit. | 03:53 |
Dr_Willis | Flotonoc: for normal home users.. it proberly wont matter much - unless you got 4+gb of ram. | 03:53 |
coz_ | johnny1243, when booting the live cd there should be a safe graphics mode | 03:53 |
Dr_Willis | Flotonoc: there are some gains in some cases. | 03:53 |
albech | my 64bit works flawless | 03:53 |
mickster04 | can i get ssh help here? | 03:54 |
johnny1243 | coz_, ok let me try that | 03:54 |
albech | mickster04, yes, if you ask the question | 03:54 |
Flotonoc | So you only see differences with 4 GB or more memory? | 03:54 |
semitones | Flotonoc: if you have more than 4GB ram, you'll have performance gains. And there are some smaller gains for 64 bit programs as well | 03:54 |
Dr_Willis | Only issue i knotive of with 64 vs 32bit - is that zsnes is 32bit only. :() | 03:54 |
One`` | Does Ubuntu have any kind of problems with ZIP files on a fresh install? I downloaded a torrent with about 4,500 ZIP files using Transmission and half of them are coming up as being corrupt despite no one else having this problem | 03:54 |
Siria_Calv | I don´t think this is the right channel, but does anyone know of a reliable secure proxy server I can use for my web-enable programs such as my bit-torrent client and my web browser? | 03:54 |
coz_ | johnny1243, but let me say that I dont use laptops at all so my experience with video issues on them is severely limited | 03:54 |
semitones | Flotonoc: if you | 03:54 |
Ademan | *but then again 64 bit binaries are twice as big and you get twice as many cache misses* | 03:55 |
Dr_Willis | One``: ive never had any issues with zip files. | 03:55 |
Cpudan80 | One``: ubuntu supports zip files -- with the unzip command | 03:55 |
Dr_Willis | One``: try using winzip or winrar in wine to access them perhaps | 03:55 |
Cpudan80 | One``: or with ark (kde) or file roller (gnome) | 03:55 |
One`` | Good idea, then I can see if they are actually corrupt | 03:55 |
mickster04 | well i am trying to create an ssh keyfile between a linux server (ubuntu) and a windows machine using putty. however i always get "server refused our key" no matter where i create it (puttygen) or ssh-keygen -t rsa any clues? | 03:55 |
albech | Siria_Calv, squid? | 03:55 |
semitones | Flotonoc: if you're intending to install a lot of third party programs not in synaptic, you might want 32 bit for better compatibility, but other than that, might as well make full use of your hardware | 03:55 |
Cpudan80 | One``: the torrent might be corrupt | 03:55 |
hiexpo | good evening all | 03:55 |
* Dr_Willis isent sure that 64bit bianries are 2x as large as 32bit.. is true.. | 03:56 | |
johnny1243 | coz_, well the help is appreciated | 03:56 |
mdg | hiexpo: hello | 03:56 |
Flotonoc | OK. | 03:56 |
hiexpo | mdg how it goes | 03:56 |
jimio | *testing* | 03:56 |
One`` | It's a.. I dunno what you would call it, but the torrent isn't the problem here. Something has gone wrong when it was being downloaded | 03:56 |
rww | Dr_Willis: it's not | 03:56 |
coz_ | johnny1243, no problem I hope you get this resolved | 03:56 |
Flotonoc | I was wondering because computers I find may be less than 64-Bit. | 03:56 |
Siria_Calv | albech, can you give me the url to their home page? | 03:56 |
mdg | hiexpo: it goes ! yay! | 03:56 |
Dr_Willis | rww: yea. thats what i was thinking >) but i was googling for some benchmarks.. | 03:56 |
johnny1243 | coz_, thanks | 03:57 |
albech | Siria_Calv, try google squid ;) | 03:57 |
Dr_Willis | Flotonoc: theres very few issues ive seen in this channel about 64 vs 32bit ubuntu. So use what you want. If you got 4+gb ram DEFINATLy go 64bit | 03:57 |
rww | I've used 64-bit for several years now. For normal user tasks, there is no appreciable performance difference between 64-bit and 32-bit. | 03:57 |
hiexpo | yah i am so tired here i lost my hard drive so been up all night fixing and reinstalling | 03:57 |
bankix | OK, I'm off then. I solved my problem myself. Greetings.. | 03:57 |
mdg | hiexpo: how did it happen? | 03:57 |
bankix | Bye | 03:57 |
rww | (except for the whole RAM thing) | 03:57 |
hiexpo | overheated | 03:57 |
Flotonoc | Alright. | 03:57 |
Dr_Willis | Ive notived video reencoding/converting seems a little faster for me on 64bit.. but that could also be encoder tweaks/differances also | 03:57 |
albech | mickster04, and you copied the key generated on your client into ~.ssh/authorized_keys on the server? | 03:58 |
albech | mickster04, and you have set the right privileges on that directory/file? | 03:58 |
cvd | so there is 64bits for nothing? | 03:58 |
mickster04 | albech yeah the public one | 03:58 |
mythril | which graphical cd burners have a verify burned cd feature? | 03:58 |
hiexpo | i had a lot of programs | 03:58 |
rww | Dr_Willis: that's possible. Things like BOINC can be a lot faster with the right binaries too. But for email-checking, IM, etc., not so much. | 03:58 |
rerorerorero | Uhmm...not sure about hardware but in coding terms 64bits doesn't only mean bigger-capacity numerical storage? | 03:58 |
mdg | hiexpo: were you dual booting? | 03:58 |
haitiankid4lyf | hello all | 03:58 |
termitor | who whan | 03:59 |
One`` | Downloaded WinRAR and the ZIP files open fine under WINE, but in whatever Ubuntu comes with it is saying it is corrupt. | 03:59 |
mythril | which graphical cd burners have a verify burned cd feature? (sorry forgot to mention Ubuntu 8.10) | 03:59 |
termitor | :p , who whan test with me, a hi res webcam ? | 03:59 |
mickster04 | albech i ran ssh-keygen to make sure the priveledges where predone.what should they be just in case? | 03:59 |
albech | mickster04, chmod 600 the file? | 03:59 |
haitiankid4lyf | my wifi suddenly stopped working | 03:59 |
rerorerorero | If so I can see how it makes video encoding run faster but barely noticeable in regular stuff. | 03:59 |
Flotonoc | How would a person convert a 32-Bit OS to 64-Bit? 0.o | 03:59 |
Flotonoc | Or vice versa? | 03:59 |
rerorerorero | But I might be stupidly wrong of course. | 03:59 |
hiexpo | ya but wasnt really using it cause my dual was backtrack and i used my dvd most of the time | 03:59 |
albech | mickster04, the .ssh should be 700 | 03:59 |
blakkheim | Flotonoc: you cant | 03:59 |
zomfgcrazy | hi | 03:59 |
Flotonoc | So when they made 32-Bit Windows Vista... | 04:00 |
haitiankid4lyf | Flotonoc: if you have a 64bit system you can download some 32bit libs that help with some programs | 04:00 |
mdg | hiexpo: I seem to learn a lot of things the hard way :( | 04:00 |
Flotonoc | They completely remade a 64-Bit version from scratch? | 04:00 |
One`` | Ohnoes, errors. Unexpected end of archive! | 04:00 |
mickster04 | albech: i dont need to restart ssh to notice the difference right? | 04:00 |
hiexpo | lol yep no more dual boot for me | 04:00 |
albech | mickster04, it will never hurt | 04:00 |
albech | mickster04, but i dont believe so | 04:00 |
rerorerorero | I actually have a 64bit processor but I prefer to save myself the headache of having to use compatibility layers and whining about 64bit binaries like everyone does. | 04:00 |
mickster04 | albech: well that hasnt changed anything it seems | 04:01 |
hiexpo | i know better to cause all these distros will run off dvd /cd | 04:01 |
albech | mickster04, what does your log file say? | 04:01 |
albech | mickster04, thats always a good place to start ;) | 04:01 |
Dr_Willis | Flotonoc: ive had more issues with 64 vs 32bit winjdows.. then i have 32 vs 64bit linux :) | 04:01 |
hiexpo | and if they dont youcan make em to | 04:01 |
neil_d | If I was to get a cheap PCI RAID card (e.g. http://www.mwave.com.au/newAU/mwaveAU/productdetail.asp?SKU=22080353&utm_source=getprice&utm_medium=cpc) could I boot from it? | 04:01 |
mdg | hiexpo: actually I meant installing | 04:01 |
mickster04 | albech: which one? | 04:02 |
hiexpo | installing ya i have installed a lot of programs myself | 04:02 |
hiexpo | i started with dos | 04:02 |
albech | mickster04, 2 sec let me fire up a ubuntu.. i believe its is /var/log/auth on ubuntu as well | 04:02 |
cvd | apt-get or aptitude? | 04:02 |
mickster04 | albech: sorry but it isnt:/ at least u have a reason to start up ubuntu:p | 04:03 |
mdg | hiexpo: how long you been with ubuntu/linux? | 04:03 |
mickster04 | cd /var/log | 04:03 |

hiexpo | i was with linux about ten years ago and dot lazy than went to windows and just restarted about 6 months ago with bnacktrack and ubuntu | 04:05 |
=== dcrews is now known as Crewsr32 | ||
hiexpo | mdg, - i got tired of paying for internet | 04:05 |
rerorerorero | Linux 10 years ago was horrible. | 04:05 |
albech | mickster04, i dont use ubuntu on my servers, but the principle is the same | 04:05 |
cvd | and still | 04:05 |
albech | rerorerorero, not horrible just harder | 04:05 |
rerorerorero | albech: Back then dependency hell was still alive. | 04:05 |
mdg | hiexpo: ...you use just free wifi now? | 04:05 |
hiexpo | mdg, - and wep is so easy | 04:06 |
albech | rerorerorero, it still is in some cases | 04:06 |
cvd | who care about OS is the software | 04:06 |
Siria_Calv | albech, the site for squid only provides a program to start a proxy server, it does not actually provide a proxy server. Since albech couldn´t help me, will someone else please do so? | 04:06 |
hiexpo | ya i live in motelso its free | 04:06 |
[ka]killer | i have a pretty old install of ubuntu (7.04) and i know its not really supported but i have an issue with the shared folders | 04:06 |
mdg | hiexpo: where's motelso? | 04:06 |
rerorerorero | albech: It is but it's always fixable, not that hard. Maybe a no-go for a newcomer but definitely manageable with some calm. | 04:06 |
[ka]killer | when i share a folder and try to get to it from my mac it asks for a user name and password and none of the accounts i know are good work | 04:06 |
cvd | jumper, ? | 04:07 |
rerorerorero | Note I mention "calm" instead of "skill" | 04:07 |
Fudge | how do i tell what version ubuntu im using in termainl, it was built feb 08 | 04:07 |
albech | rerorerorero, think that is a discussion for #ubuntu-chat ;) | 04:07 |
hiexpo | mdg, - it only takes me about 2 minutes to crack wep | 04:07 |
rww | ubottu: version | Fudge | 04:07 |
ubottu | Fudge: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell - To know the available version of a package, « apt-cache policy <package> » | 04:07 |
coz_ | Fudge, lsb_release -a | 04:07 |
semitones | Fudge: uname -a, I think | 04:07 |
rerorerorero | albech: True, my bad. | 04:07 |
Fudge | i did that and got teh kernel | 04:08 |
mdg | hiexpo: that's not a very good habit to be in | 04:08 |
Fudge | Linux nick-desktop 2.6.20-16-generic #2 SMP Tue Feb 12 05:41:34 UTC 2008 i686 goodnight | 04:08 |
Fudge | U/Linux | 04:08 |
cvd | semitones, thats for kernel | 04:08 |
semitones | Fudge, did you try what cvd said? | 04:08 |
rww | Fudge: lsb_release -a | 04:08 |
albech | Siria_Calv, so you want a free proxy service that you can use on the internet?? and not an application? | 04:08 |
semitones | er, | 04:08 |
semitones | coz | 04:08 |
Siria_Calv | albech, correct | 04:08 |
cvd | semitones, yes | 04:08 |
[ka]killer | anyone know what to do? | 04:09 |
albech | albech, in that case you are right, this is not the place to ask that question ;) | 04:09 |
hiexpo | i know but i do it mostly to learn i get it free were i live i just do it to test my skills | 04:09 |
mickster04 | albech: nothing about authkey? | 04:09 |
Fudge | k sec | 04:09 |
mickster04 | ooh | 04:09 |
semitones | cvd: learn something new every day :) | 04:09 |
zomfgcrazy | where in the /etc/default/grub file would I change the default boot partition? =\ | 04:09 |
Siria_Calv | albech, more specifically one I can use with programs on my computer. | 04:09 |
[ka]killer | i have a slight emergency with an external drive failing and this is the only place i can back it up to | 04:09 |
haitiankid4lyf | hey my wlan has been working problem free, but now it seems to be non existent | 04:09 |
cvd | ia there any program to edit de boot-grub menu? | 04:09 |
mickster04 | albech: err attempting to add filename encryptionkey to user session keyring rc = [1] | 04:09 |
semitones | cvd: grub2? | 04:10 |
Out_Cold | haitiankid4lyf, can you run sudo iwconfig in a terminal | 04:10 |
hiexpo | and linux is a lot better now than it use to be not as hard now | 04:10 |
Fudge | lsb_release -a | 04:10 |

howdeep | how can i share files between two ubuntu machines? | 04:10 |
Fudge | feisty | 04:10 |
Out_Cold | Fudge, happens even to the best of us ;) | 04:10 |
Siria_Calv | haitiankid4lyf, If you´ve left it on non-stop for a long time you probably only need to reset or restart the wlan modem | 04:10 |
zomfgcrazy | howdeep: ubuntuone? | 04:10 |
Dr_Willis | [ka]killer: set a samba password for the user with 'sudo smbpasswd -a username' | 04:10 |
rerorerorero | Anyone here is using KDE4.4 and noticed traffic to "bluemchen.kde.org"? I want to know what it is but the KDE channel is totally dead. Using the latest ppa release in Karmic (Ubuntu, not Kubuntu) | 04:10 |
albech | !samba | howdeep | 04:10 |
ubottu | howdeep: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 04:10 |
Fudge | can i jsut dist-upgarde etc? | 04:10 |
Dr_Willis | [ka]killer: then try that username/samba password | 04:10 |
zomfgcrazy | cvd: i'm looking fo a answer to that question, too. =x | 04:10 |
Out_Cold | howdeep, ssh, ubuntu one, nfs, samba, ftp | 04:10 |
=== homer is now known as Guest71190 | ||
howdeep | Out_Cold, isin't samba for sharing with windows? | 04:11 |
semitones | cvd: if it's regular grub, you edit /boot/grub/menu.lst, but I think you know that! I don't know about grub 2 | 04:11 |
albech | mickster04, 2 sec | 04:11 |
haitiankid4lyf | Out_Cold: http://pastebin.org/81351 | 04:11 |
Out_Cold | howdeep, yes but works for ubuntu also | 04:11 |
howdeep | Out_Cold, both machines are linux | 04:11 |
haitiankid4lyf | Siria_Calv: i rebooted computer many times | 04:12 |
outer_space | anyone know whats up with name-services? the domain i had with them got domain-parked and their domain is also name-parked whats up with all this?? | 04:12 |
brophat | UNR has that upgrade feature? | 04:12 |
Siria_Calv | haitiankid4lyf, not your computer, your modem | 04:12 |
hiexpo | mdg, - i would never do anything wrong to hurt antone either | 04:12 |
[ka]killer | anyone? | 04:12 |
albech | mickster04, did you use ssh-copy-id? | 04:12 |
Out_Cold | haitiankid4lyf, how about lspci | grep Network | 04:12 |
Out_Cold | haitiankid4lyf, may need sudo | 04:12 |
neil_d | can you boot from a PCI raid card if it uses a "fake-raid" driver? | 04:12 |
rww | ubottu: ot | outer_space | 04:13 |
ubottu | outer_space: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 04:13 |
albech | mickster04, i never got that working so i manually copied the public file and appended it to the authorized file | 04:13 |
haitiankid4lyf | Siria_Calv: other comps connect to modem, the wifi manager seems non existent | 04:13 |
haitiankid4lyf | Out_Cold: didnt get anything | 04:13 |
mdg | Does anyone here use a serial or USB modem? | 04:13 |
nvme | anyone know how to control what VT gdm starts on ? | 04:14 |
domi007 | hey again | 04:14 |
Siria_Calv | haitiankidlyf, maybe your wifi adapter requires a restricted driver. If so your problem might be it got dissabled. Try reinstalling the driver. | 04:14 |
Out_Cold | haitiankid4lyf, how about just lspci and look for your network card please | 04:14 |
albech | mickster04, and you have 'RSAAuthentication yes' and 'PubkeyAuthentication yes' in your sshd.conf? | 04:14 |
void_pointer | mdg, I use my mobile phone through USB as a modem. I hope that doesn't anger you | 04:14 |
cvd | any here use empathy? | 04:14 |
Out_Cold | nvme, by default tty7 is for x display | 04:14 |
domi007 | so i try to use my ipw2200 but i got | 04:15 |
domi007 | an error | 04:15 |
domi007 | in dmesg | 04:15 |
Out_Cold | dunno if you can change it | 04:15 |
cvd | how to make empathy log in automatically when ubuntu starts? | 04:15 |
domi007 | like unable to load ucode -22 | 04:15 |
Siria_Calv | cvd, not me. and never will I use it | 04:15 |
domi007 | i looked it up | 04:15 |
mdg | void_pointer: no it doesn't - just wondering how many people still use dial-up... | 04:15 |
nvme | Out_Cold, im trying to change it to vt5 | 04:15 |
MrUnix | cvd, Add it to startup aps. | 04:15 |
mickster04 | albech just checking now | 04:15 |
domi007 | couldn't find anything | 04:15 |
Siria_Calv | cvd, I use aMSN | 04:15 |
MauritianGuy | hello i am back | 04:15 |
Dr_Willis | it normally uses the next unallocated display.. why do you need to change it nvme ? | 04:15 |
domi007 | i need help | 04:15 |
rww | ubottu: startup | cvd | 04:15 |
ubottu | cvd: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot | 04:15 |
domi007 | anyone has ipw2200? | 04:15 |

ubottu | MauritianGuy: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! | 04:15 |
MauritianGuy | thanks Billiard its working Just fint with the 185 | 04:15 |
MrUnix | !ask | domi007 | 04:16 |
ubottu | domi007: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 04:16 |
cvd | MrUnix, i know but it open | 04:16 |
haitiankid4lyf | Out_Cold: doesnt seem to be there http://pastebin.org/81354 | 04:16 |
domi007 | okay | 04:16 |
nvme | Dr_Willis, well i dont really need to change it, I am trying to start an extra gnome xsession, but i want it on vt6 if possible | 04:16 |
MauritianGuy | the Xserver is displaying all the proper driver details all good Billiard | 04:16 |
MrUnix | cvd??? | 04:16 |
domi007 | ipw2200: unable to load ucode: -22 can i solve this somehow? | 04:16 |
cvd | i want empathy start minimized | 04:16 |
haitiankid4lyf | thing is it was working flawlessly earlier today and havent upgraded or anything | 04:16 |
MrUnix | cvd, look in the settings? | 04:16 |
Ziber | !cron | 04:16 |
void_pointer | mdg, well it's not dialup in this case. I get 7.2Mbps theoretical, about 6Mbps actual. I hope that doesn't anger you. | 04:16 |
ubottu | cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto - There is also a decent Howto at http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm | 04:16 |
cvd | MrUnix, dont have that | 04:16 |
Dr_Willis | nvme: stop the consoles from starting on vt6 and X should use it. instead of 7 I thinkl | 04:16 |
MrUnix | cvd, The settings for empathy? | 04:17 |
cvd | MrUnix, yes | 04:17 |
mickster04 | albech i have both those to yes | 04:17 |
* MrUnix remembers when Ubuntu came standard with Pidgin | 04:17 | |
albech | ok | 04:17 |
domi007 | ipw2200: unable to load ucode: -22 can i solve this somehow? i used google, still nothing | 04:17 |
Dr_Willis | nvme: see /etc/init - > rename tty6.conf to be tty6.conf_DONTRUN or similer.. | 04:17 |
nvme | Dr_Willis, already did that but it doesnt, i even added the appropriate settings to /etc/gdm/custom.conf, but it keeps going to vt7 | 04:17 |
semitones | MrUnix: why did the switch to "emotion" or whatever it is now? | 04:17 |
rww | empathy | 04:18 |
semitones | yeah | 04:18 |
Out_Cold | haitiankid4lyf, you are right, it's not there.. how about lshw? | 04:18 |
neil_d | initrd isn't seting up my mdadm raid1 properly.. is there anything I can do about it | 04:18 |
albech | mickster04, its also a good idea to set LogLevel to DEBUG while working with stuff like this, but it requires that you can find the log file ;) | 04:18 |
joh6nn | i'm having some serious slowdown with my wireless connection, compared to the speeds that i had in both Hardy and Jaunty. I've tried disabling ipv6 and a few other things, but nothing seems to help | 04:18 |
Out_Cold | haitiankid4lyf, may need sudo again | 04:18 |
Dr_Willis | nvme: used tobe settings in gdm.conf but no idea with the gdm in 9.10 | 04:18 |
void_pointer | mdg, I'm sorry if I've made you mad. It was not my intention. | 04:18 |
MrUnix | semitones, I am not sure, but I am of the understanding that the most popular packages are the ones included. | 04:18 |
mickster04 | albech: but the ssh id copy thing i dont know what that is? | 04:18 |
mdg | void_pointer: ??? not mad :) | 04:19 |
semitones | MrUnix: yeah, they're also cutting thegimp | 04:19 |
domi007 | i am using the latest ubuntu, but ipw2200 doesn't work, it says in dmesg: unable to load ucode: -22...all files are in the right folders | 04:19 |
kevin1093 | i have been trying to install Ubuntu and i sucessfully installed it but now my computer stops at verifying DMI pool data. can anyone help me? | 04:19 |
zomfgcrazy | how do i tell what version of grub i'm using? | 04:19 |
MrUnix | semitones, Are they? | 04:19 |
void_pointer | mdg, ok | 04:19 |
howdeep | Just installed ubuntu on a desktop with onboard audio device. i have no sound at all. where should i start? | 04:19 |
mickster04 | albech idi mv id_rsa.pub authorized_keys | 04:19 |
semitones | MrUnix: yeah, it won't be installed by default anymore, to save space on the cd | 04:19 |
MrUnix | zomfgcrazy, grub | 04:19 |
albech | mickster04, thats a utility copy the public key from the client to the server and append it to the authorized_keys | 04:19 |
mdg | howdeep: double click the sound icon and check your settings | 04:19 |
nvme | Dr_Willis, yeah i thin custom.conf is the same thing, i told it to make first vt5, but it still put gnome on vt7 | 04:19 |
Dr_Willis | zomfgcrazy: did you do a clean install of 09.10? | 04:19 |
=== juliancolton is now known as enwiki | ||
albech | mickster04, but if you did that manually it is fine | 04:20 |
MrUnix | semitones, I know a lot of people don't like GIMP. Oh well, not so hard to apt-get install <foo> | 04:20 |
Dr_Willis | nvme: they have changed the layout of gdm.conf so much. I havent even looked in to it much | 04:20 |
zomfgcrazy | Dr_Willis: i did! =D | 04:20 |
howdeep | mdg, the output is set to 'dummy output' what does that mean? | 04:20 |
semitones | MrUnix: true. and people who need it will probably know about it | 04:20 |

mickster04 | albech i used 1024 bit encryption but my sshd_config gile say "serverkeybits 768" might that have sumat to do with it? | 04:23 |

MrUnix | domi007, lspci and paste me your wireless line | 04:24 |
albech | mickster04, ? | 04:24 |
Out_Cold | haitiankid4lyf, a desktop? perhaps your card is bad?? or unplugged | 04:24 |

Dr_Willis | zomfgcrazy: read the grub2 wiki page/docs and edit the proper grub2 confuigs.. then rerun update-grub | 04:24 |

alucardromero | Hello everybody! :) | 04:25 |
semitones | Are there any advantages to using GRUB2 > Grub? | 04:25 |
nwu | semitones: it just logs out suddenly, often while I'm browsing or chatting | 04:25 |
haitiankid4lyf | Out_Cold: i also tried previous kernels | 04:25 |
domi007 | but i know my card was in the lspci list | 04:25 |
zomfgcrazy | Dr_Willis: Thank you very much. ^.^ | 04:25 |
blakkheim | semitones: no | 04:25 |
okokl | no ideas =\ | 04:25 |
MrUnix | domi007, And you're using ipw2200? | 04:25 |
cvd | okokl, que tu quires | 04:26 |
Dr_Willis | semitones: grub2 has many newer features. and is going to be the standard in the near future i imagine | 04:26 |
domi007 | yes i am trin' to use ipw2200 | 04:26 |
alucardromero | Are hard drives supposed to be ordered by size? | 04:26 |
semitones | nwu: that's weird! you might want to keep asking here, or post a topic in the forum | 04:26 |
Dr_Willis | semitones: its also got many very nice features 'in the works' | 04:26 |
cvd | alucardromero, no | 04:26 |
alucardromero | Hmm. | 04:26 |
Out_Cold | haitiankid4lyf, I have noticed occasionally a wifi card overheating and shutting down, this could be a possibility but not 100% positive. Unless I knew for sure what your card was or where it should be, I can only guess that it overheated or crapped out | 04:26 |
okokl | cvd: i need to get vidalia working with provoxy | 04:26 |
albech | mickster04, installing openssh to check | 04:26 |

semitones | Dr_Willis: alright, that shouldn't be too bad | 04:27 |
domi007 | ok MrUnix i send you virtual coffee :) | 04:27 |
nwu | semitones: yeah, it's getting to be a really strange problem (happening a few times a day now). I posted it to the ubuntu forums, but no one knows why it's happening. :/ | 04:27 |
Out_Cold | np, good luck. hopefully it reactivates | 04:27 |
alucardromero | Fudge, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 04:27 |
semitones | Fudge: there are a series of steps.., I think | 04:28 |
MrUnix | Fudge, You need to go through each release up to 9.10. Easier just to fresh install. | 04:28 |
neil_d | Fudge: you got to it in steps... one upgrade at a time. | 04:28 |
Billiard | Fudge: i would do a fresh install | 04:28 |
Dr_Willis | semitones: one neat trick in grub2 - with the right disrto/iso file - you can set grub2 to boot ISO files :) | 04:28 |
Fudge | dist-upgrade didnt work | 04:28 |
MrUnix | domi007, You're using ipw2200? | 04:28 |
albech | mickster04, i have a /var/log/auth.log after installing openssh | 04:28 |
MrUnix | Fudge, why not just fresh install? | 04:28 |
domi007 | MrUnix: yes i do | 04:28 |
okokl | ayúdeme por favor | 04:28 |
mickster04 | albech: im looking into that now | 04:28 |
Out_Cold | Fudge, agreed, back up and fresh install... too much can go wrong and IIRC you need to install 7.10>8.04>8.10>9.04>9.10 | 04:28 |
kevin1093 | i have been trying to install Ubuntu and i sucessfully installed it but now my computer stops at verifying DMI pool data. can anyone help me? | 04:28 |
semitones | Dr_Willis: so, if you have GRUB2 preinstalled, you could try out a live cd on an iso, nice | 04:28 |
Fudge | friends web server, was just going to freshen it up | 04:28 |
MrUnix | domi007, I think that's depreciated. Is the wireless card on? (Wireless light on/flashing?) | 04:28 |
neil_d | Fudge: I think you got to use the upgrade manager from the menus. | 04:29 |
semitones | Dr_Willis: is it possible to run GRUB 2 from cd? | 04:29 |
MrUnix | Fudge, one moment and I'll PM the steps. | 04:29 |
hiexpo | i suggest downloading the dvd and do a fresh install buts thats just my pref | 04:29 |

domi007 | Billiard: okay, i see your point, but why would a livecd make a difference? | 04:54 |
Dr_Willis | Eltume: theres people in here constantly with hardware that is supposed to work.. but has issues.. :) | 04:54 |
Out_Cold | Dr_Willis, Eltume, tried and tested is a better statement | 04:54 |
Billiard | domi007: i was just wondering if it worked on the live cd to see if somehow your install was the problem, i havent had any problems with intel wireless devices | 04:54 |

Eltume | that's what makes me want to buy open hardware instead | 04:55 |
=== carlos is now known as Guest27750 | ||
Dr_Willis | Eltume: that site only seem to sell redhat and suse | 04:55 |
domi007 | Billiard: i can't try out a livecd | 04:55 |
Billiard | NotTooSmart: if you only want the owner to have read permission | 04:55 |
Billiard | domi007: ok | 04:55 |
Eltume | dr.willis, AVADirect also offer Ubuntu in addition to redhat and suse | 04:56 |
Out_Cold | Eltume, not a bad idea if you are using linux only, but just use well supported hardware | 04:56 |
NotTooSmart | Billiard: I think that would make sense since I connect using the same user in samba, and the same user via MPD | 04:56 |
Dr_Willis | Eltume: well they dont have ubuntu boxed sets :) like they do redhat/suse.. but that may be because thre is not the same thing :) | 04:56 |
Eltume | out_cold, the only downside to open hardware is the limited choice | 04:56 |
ultraparadigm | Well on this new laptop I decided to dual but Ubuntu and Win7 right off tha bat. And sofar, as for ease of use, Ubuntu is winning | 04:56 |
Eltume | redhat and suse seem to be popular among companies | 04:57 |
TMK | Hi All. I'm in great need of some new hardware and I'd like to get a little advice for an Ubuntu desktop. I've been running it on an old Dell Inspiron, but would like to get something decent. | 04:57 |
Billiard | NotTooSmart: you cant create new dirs/files in that directory then either | 04:57 |
semitones | ultraparadigm: nice. what do you like about it especially | 04:57 |
Out_Cold | Eltume, agreed, but if thousands of users sent emails to manufacturers then maybe we'd have better choice | 04:57 |
ultraparadigm | Other than games, that were made for windows, I have had 0 hassle in Ubuntu. Everything works, even things that didn't work right in windows like my web cam and bluetooth | 04:57 |
NotTooSmart | Billiard: my user can though yes? | 04:57 |
semitones | ah, kk :) | 04:57 |
ultraparadigm | Me = happy | 04:57 |
Billiard | NotTooSmart: no | 04:58 |
NotTooSmart | Billiard: what is a good bet between safety/security ? | 04:58 |
blakkheim | TMK: build it | 04:58 |
Dr_Willis | That site charges $11 to install ubuntu. :) | 04:58 |
TMK | I'd love to build it actually. Got any recommendations for HW? | 04:58 |
NotTooSmart | Billiard: 644? | 04:58 |
Vladimir_ | Hello everyone! I'm going to try Ubuntu and wanted to know how it performs as far as BitTorrent in concerned. Is Transmission a good, stable BT client/? Will I have problems with bandwidth/firewall limitations or issues? | 04:58 |
blakkheim | TMK: avoid ati, that's about it for linux-related recommendations | 04:58 |
blakkheim | Vladimir_: i prefer rtorrent but transmission is ok too | 04:59 |
Dr_Willis | Vladimir_: transmissions is a rather basic BT client. | 04:59 |
Billiard | NotTooSmart: you want x on the directories | 04:59 |
TMK | nvidia's better I take it? | 04:59 |
Dr_Willis | Vladimir_: it depends on what extra features you need. | 04:59 |
blakkheim | TMK: yes | 04:59 |
ultraparadigm | Vladimir, I don't use torrents, but give Ubuntu a try anyway. It's worked out great for me so far | 04:59 |
Dr_Willis | Vladimir_: ive been using qTorrent lately - it works very well for me | 04:59 |
semitones | Vladimir_: transmission is pretty fast and works very well | 04:59 |
TMK | ok. Thanks. | 04:59 |
domi007 | Billiard: any other idea? | 05:00 |
ultraparadigm | I work for the cable company, and torrents are like cuse words. lol | 05:00 |
Tanthrix | Is there a clever way to view all installed packages listed by catagory in Synaptic? | 05:00 |
semitones | Vladimir_: Transmission has the best GUI/features/speed combination, imo | 05:00 |
Vladimir_ | Thanks... will see how Transmission works out. I'm currently using uTorrent... | 05:00 |
TMK | where's my DOCSIS 3.0? :) | 05:00 |
Billiard | domi007: i have no idea if wubi could cause issues like this, otherwise i have no idea | 05:00 |
ultraparadigm | My compay has it | 05:01 |
domi007 | Billiard: i reinsattled the ipw2200 package..no success | 05:01 |
ultraparadigm | company* rather | 05:01 |
Vladimir_ | Will Ubuntu play Blu-ray movies? I have a Blu-ray drive? | 05:01 |
TMK | i think mine has it...but it would be about 99 a month for the service. | 05:01 |
domi007 | Billiard: however when I frist booted in with the older kernel (i think it is 2.6.30-14) i had the card OK, but it didn't see any networks....could this indicate that i have a hardware problem? | 05:01 |
blakkheim | Vladimir_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/BluRayAndHDDVD | 05:02 |
Billiard | domi007: well it could be, but that could be a driver issue too | 05:02 |
Vladimir_ | thanks for the link, blakkheim | 05:02 |
semitones | ultraparadigm: why don't cable companies like them? Wouldn't they get ppl to buy more expensive plans? for more bandwidth? | 05:02 |
domi007 | Billiard: ok, i don't know....the laptop i am using is really weird..sometimes it starts ok when i press the power, sometimes it kinda hangs before the BIOS POST screen...i really don't know, and i don't have a screwdriver for it, so i can't even open it :( | 05:04 |
cvd | we pay for something that we can use all the bandwidth we pay | 05:04 |
ultraparadigm | Torrents cause lag for everyone sharing the node of the user who is using them. Because cable uses shared bandwidth, torrents can slow the whole nighboorhood | 05:04 |
Shazam | how do I get a partition to mount upon boot. I *believe* I have a correct fstab entry, but, well its not there when I boot. Is there anything else I would need to do? | 05:05 |
abu123 | hi on my I got "E: Type '“ndeb' is not known on line 60 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list" this errror | 05:05 |
ultraparadigm | It's just one of those things, we get a call "my internet is slow." Sorry sir, it's because your nieghbor is using a zillian torrents. "I don't care, fix it!" Puts us in an awkward position | 05:05 |
Billiard | Shazam: does the mountpoint exist? | 05:05 |
abu123 | how I repair this error | 05:05 |
semitones | ultraparadigm: I'll take that, but what's the difference between dling torrents and watching netflix? | 05:05 |
Billiard | Shazam: run "sudo mount -a" check for errors | 05:05 |
Shazam | Billiard: yes. in fact, when i mount it from terminal it works | 05:05 |
Shazam | k | 05:05 |
TeamColtra | semitones, nothing... although you probably have a smaller filesize from netflix | 05:06 |
semitones | ultraparadigm: because it doesn't seem that fair to tell the torrent user, hey, ok you paid for this bandwidth, but please, don't use it... | 05:06 |
TeamColtra | and honestly cable companies can suck it, they have enough bandwidth for everyone... they just say that so they can pump more money out of you | 05:06 |
TeamColtra | How can I do a math problem in terminal? I remember doing it before but i forget now | 05:06 |
iflema | abu123 gksu gedit in a terminal an look at the begigining of each line till ya find the one that says ndeb and remoive the n then save and do sudo apt-get update | 05:06 |
sage1 | Hi. Is it possible to use the keyboard volume controls to manage 2+ sound channels? I can't find anything about it. | 05:07 |
Dr_Willis | TeamColtra: try the 'bc' command | 05:07 |
semitones | ultraparadigm: imo, people should be charged by how much they dl/up. that would be more fair | 05:07 |
blakkheim | iflema: why gedit when he's already in a terminal? vi or nano :/ | 05:07 |
TeamColtra | File 1+1 is unavailable. | 05:07 |
* iflema what ever...... novie = geedit | 05:07 | |
allyourbass | hello all, would anyone like to help me tackle a problem with my auto mounting of usb drives? | 05:07 |

Billiard | allyourbass: what is the prob? | 05:09 |
domi007 | good bye everyone | 05:09 |
allyourbass | well ive got a fresh install of 9.10 | 05:09 |
Dr_Willis | allyourbass: every so often the automounting 'breaks' for me - untill i logout, or reboot.. | 05:09 |
allyourbass | xubuntu | 05:09 |
Dr_Willis | allyourbass: not sure why it does it | 05:09 |
Shazam | Billiard: so, in fact your intuition was correct. error says, mount point does exist. should my mountpoint be an empty directory? what permissions do I need | 05:10 |
allyourbass | when i plug my device in | 05:10 |
ultraparadigm | Good question. People who really abuse the heck out ot torrents can suck up alot more bandwidth than netflix, and at a constant rate, where as netflix is not going to be constant and over night and all day long. | 05:10 |
Quan-Time | blakkheim: how you do it ? | 05:10 |
cvd | why the ubuntu cd dont have a boot repair option? | 05:10 |
cvd | like the others OS | 05:10 |
blakkheim | Quan-Time: dl the source, compile, install, set module to autoload, blacklist ath5k | 05:10 |
Billiard | Shazam: you mean "mount point doesnt exist" ? | 05:10 |
Fezzler | In Update Manager, I have a file/package shown but faded out - I can't select it or delete it that I know of? How do I "clear" it? | 05:10 |
semitones | cvd: what would it do? | 05:10 |
allyourbass | i get this http://pastebin.com/m2b1143a | 05:10 |
zomfgcrazy | how does one access the menu/window where one modifies 3d box rotation settings etc.? | 05:10 |
Billiard | Shazam: yea an empty directory, permissions shouldnt matter | 05:10 |
Quan-Time | blakkheim: ath9k in my setup.. ok.. see what i can do | 05:10 |
cvd | semitones, repair the boot? | 05:11 |
TeamColtra | <ultraparadigm> Good question. People who really abuse the heck out ot torrents can suck up alot more bandwidth than netflix, and at a constant rate <-- I am pretty sure that its not "abusing" and its actually "using them correctly" | 05:11 |
semitones | cvd: specifics? | 05:11 |
allyourbass | i cant get it to automount for the life of me | 05:11 |
allyourbass | but i can get it to go manually | 05:11 |
ultraparadigm | lol | 05:11 |
franc | !spanish | 05:12 |

cvd | semitones, are you kiding? | 05:12 |
ultraparadigm | true | 05:12 |
Fezzler | The package is "glade-gnome | 05:12 |
semitones | no, that's a broad problem that could mean a lot of things | 05:12 |
Quan-Time | blakkheim: hmm.. wheres the madwifi source ? | 05:12 |
sage1 | Hi. Does anyone know if it's possible to control multiple sound tracks like Master, LFE, and PCM properly in 9.10? | 05:12 |
zig_ | Strange.. aptitude install tor doesn't seem to work. | 05:12 |
blakkheim | Quan-Time: i can upload the source i use, i forgot where i originally got the snapshot :/ | 05:13 |
EastDallas | TeamColtra: for math in a terminal try: 3+3 | bc | 05:14 |
semitones | is there a way to make GNOME more lightweight? | 05:14 |

EastDallas | TeamColtra: you are entering the command just like this: 3 | 05:15 |
Billiard | TeamColtra: echo 3+3 | bc | 05:16 |
Dr_Willis | cvd: how about a 'magically fix everuything option' also :) | 05:16 |
EastDallas | TeamColtra: 3+3 | bc | 05:16 |

Dr_Willis | semitones: i recall the 'bullet proof X' thing they tired a few releases back.. notice its not around any more that ive seen | 05:16 |
EastDallas | TeamColtra: Billiard is right. I left out the echo 'echo 3+3 | bc' | 05:16 |
abu123 | thank you I flema | 05:17 |
semitones | Dr_Willis: never heard of it, but I get the idea :P | 05:17 |

semitones | Dr_Willis: cvd: the whole live-cd is basically an everything-fixer | 05:18 |
iflema | abu123 no worries... sorry for the typos and lake of direction.... | 05:18 |
abu123 | :) | 05:18 |
Dr_Willis | semitones: yep. - i rember when a live-cd was a Fancy new fangled feature. :) | 05:18 |
JohninLEx | how do you check a HD copy that you have done dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/sda | 05:18 |
semitones | Dr_Willis: when you had to decide between an install cd and a live cd :) | 05:19 |
Dr_Willis | semitones: i recall when there was NO live cd to even decide btween | 05:19 |
Dr_Willis | :) | 05:19 |
sage1 | Is it possible to control multiple volume channels using the keyboard volume controls? I haven't found anything in the past hour and a half :| | 05:19 |
semitones | Dr_Willis: lol -- didn't dapper have a live cd? | 05:19 |
bouma | hello im having some feature shock with the transition from 9.04 to 9.10 and was wondering if someone could have me configure it so that the way im used to having things setup will work??? | 05:19 |
JohninLEx | how do you check a HD copy that you have done with dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/sda | 05:19 |
grayhane | my motherboard will take SATA or IDE hard drives, if I install one of each, can I select which one is the master ? | 05:20 |
Dr_Willis | jonathan3: you could md5 sum both of them. | 05:20 |
bouma | 1st why is the workspace switcher sooooo short.. ie not tall | 05:20 |
Dr_Willis | bouma: you mean why is it wide. :) | 05:20 |
bouma | if you put it on a panel with more room is stays tiny... like several pixels high | 05:21 |
bouma | no i want to to use up more vertical space | 05:21 |
Out_Cold | i was looking in the man pages, how would you use apt-get build-dep on source that you have downloaded from packages.ubuntu? | 05:21 |
Dr_Willis | bouma: you just want it bigger.. niot showing more desktops.. | 05:21 |
Billiard | Out_Cold: i beleive you do apt-get build-dep packagename | 05:21 |
bouma | Dr_willis: yes, i always just have 3x3 desktops.. but iwont use more vertical space than about 16px the 9.04 version was different it could be square | 05:22 |
Out_Cold | not sure why i didn't think of that. thanks Billiard | 05:22 |
Out_Cold | i would ./configure one by one until now :o/ | 05:23 |
bouma | Dr_Willis, and you cant use the mouse wheel to cycle through the desktops | 05:23 |
cjones | whats a good ap to convert strip audio out of a flv convert it in to wav | 05:24 |
allyourbass | this automount crab is starting to piss me off | 05:24 |
Billiard | cjones: ffmpeg | 05:24 |
allyourbass | crap* | 05:24 |
Dr_Willis | bouma: i got 2 wide screen monitors now - I dont use many desktops any more | 05:24 |
Out_Cold | bouma, you have to click the background with the mouse wheel, then drag left or right | 05:24 |
bouma | Dr_Willis, the new workspace switcher is useless | 05:24 |
* Dr_Willis rembers when external media dident 'auto mount' at all. :) | 05:24 | |
* Dr_Willis is old | 05:24 | |
=== semitones is now known as ubuntu | ||
* ubuntu is old | 05:25 | |
git__ | i get confused using more than 1 desktop | 05:25 |
bouma | Out_Cold, what does that help me with? to move it on the panel, or to resize it ? | 05:25 |
Out_Cold | bouma, i also think that ctrl + alt and mouse scroll changes windows | 05:25 |
=== ubuntu is now known as semitones | ||
git__ | my computer is not powerful enough | 05:25 |
ultraparadigm | I love my 4 desktops. Sometimes I just relax and watch them spin around! | 05:25 |
Dr_Willis | Hmm. if i make my Panel 45 pixles tall. the workspace switcher grows to fill up all 45 pixles | 05:25 |
bouma | Out_Cold, no ctr-al + wheel does not | 05:26 |
Out_Cold | bouma, if you have compiz settings configured, you grab the desktop with the middle mouse and rotate your cube. | 05:26 |
cjones | filliard whats the frontend for that | 05:26 |
Out_Cold | bouma, you may have to set it to do so in compiz-config | 05:26 |
sage1 | So no one knows anything about controlling the volume in 9.10? | 05:26 |
cjones | billiard whats the frontend for that | 05:26 |
Dr_Willis | compiz Does do the virutaldesktop differently then metacity does. | 05:26 |
Billiard | cjones: idk i dont use one just do something like "ffmpeg -i file.flv -vn out.wav" faster easier than a frontend | 05:27 |
JohninLEx | how do you check a HD copy that you have done dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/sda | 05:27 |
cvd | sage1, like windows 7 do? | 05:27 |
semitones | sage1: works as expected, I guess | 05:27 |
cjones | billiard thanks so much | 05:27 |
Billiard | cjones: np | 05:27 |
ultraparadigm | Sage,1, you have a volume question? | 05:27 |
bouma | Out_cold, Dr_willis, ok ive fixed both issues, by turning "visual effects" to none. but imho i should be able to have visual effects on "some" and still have a non buggy desktop switcher app.. so this is definately a BUG | 05:27 |
cvd | ultraparadigm, a mixer volume | 05:28 |
Billiard | JohninLEx: you could use cmp, i beleive the command is called | 05:28 |
Dr_Willis | bouma: using NONE = You are now using metacituy not compiz. | 05:28 |
Fezzler | I have an update in my Update Manager but I can't do anything with it. It is "grayed out". How do I get ride of it? | 05:28 |
Out_Cold | bouma, ati card? | 05:28 |
sage1 | My laptop has Master, LFE, and PCM tracks. I need a way to control multiple channels. | 05:28 |
ultraparadigm | My lappy has a touchresponsive volume slider, I just drag my finger across and it shows on the screen. | 05:28 |
ultraparadigm | hmmmm | 05:28 |
ultraparadigm | I see | 05:28 |
ultraparadigm | Yes I need to get an ad vanced mixer too | 05:28 |
semitones | sage1: right click on the icon? | 05:28 |
sage1 | In Arch I could edit a setting in gconf-editor and I could control multiple channels. | 05:28 |
bouma | Dr_willis: ok differetnt window manager, but the taskswitcher is _completely_ differernt under the two settings | 05:29 |
JohninLEx | Billiard: yea that did not work thanks anyone else please | 05:29 |
ultraparadigm | I downloaded a mixer but haven't tried it yet. I want something with reverb effects for my Karaoke | 05:29 |
Billiard | JohninLEx: didnt work? what was the error? | 05:29 |
Dr_Willis | bouma: yes.. you even (well ised to) use CCSM to set the # of deskjtops when using compiz.. or the gnome settings to set it with using metacity. | 05:29 |
MHz128 | Is it possible to run MS Office 07 using Wine in a 64bit Ubuntu install? | 05:29 |
bouma | D_willis, and imho under the "some" setting, the task switcher is unusable, with a tiny hight, that cannot be increased and you cant cycle with the wheel... making it _useless_. | 05:29 |
Dr_Willis | !appdb | MHz128 | 05:29 |

semitones | sage1: please keep messages in the channel, but it gives me different sliders for PCM and stuff, do you not get that? | 05:30 |
JohninLEx | missing operand after 'cmp' Billiard | 05:30 |
Billiard | JohninLEx: what was the command you tried? | 05:30 |
Dr_Willis | bouma: it enlarged to fill the panel here for me. and im using compiz.. (i think) | 05:30 |
JohninLEx | cmp | 05:30 |
Billiard | JohninLEx: you need to specify the partitions | 05:30 |
sage1 | Sorry. All it gives me is one slider. I cannot find anywhere to enable more | 05:30 |
JohninLEx | duh lol Billiard | 05:30 |
Dr_Willis | bouma: what is it doing exactly? I got 4x1 row of desktops and they elarge properly | 05:31 |
semitones | sage1: hmm, that's odd. Maybe a screenshot would help the channel | 05:31 |
bouma | Dr_Willis, ok there is definately a bug tho. this is a virgin install, 1st boot, at first the default is desktop switcher wont grow vertically, then you switch visual to "none" and it grows, and you can switch back and it stays "grown".. but ... BUG | 05:32 |
sage1 | Alright. Let me take a screenshot real quick. | 05:32 |
bouma | Dr_Willis, perhaps i'll search to make sure its marked , it could already be patched | 05:32 |
Dr_Willis | bouma: if its a new install.. you may want to update/upgrade.. it may be fixed | 05:32 |
JohninLEx | thanks Billiard that was the trick have a great night, morning, afternoon. | 05:32 |
Billiard | JohninLEx: np | 05:32 |
iflema | Fezzler unmet dependencies / or package conflict.... most likely unmet deps... you must have added external repos and that requires the dependencies | 05:33 |
Dr_Willis | bouma: using a 3x3 desktops and the switcher works properly for me as i enlarge the panel | 05:33 |
dude_ | hello everyone | 05:33 |
h0rnman | Hello everyone, and good morning/afternoon/evening | 05:33 |
weiting | h0rnman, good afternoon~ | 05:33 |
Dr_Willis | bouma: at least now the switcher settings work in compiz and meta city now. :) | 05:33 |
semitones | h0rnman: good morning :0 | 05:34 |
Fezzler | iflema: SO how do I "clear" it | 05:35 |
sage1 | Well pulseaudio stopped working right :| | 05:35 |
sage1 | Let me relogin and I'll show you a screenshot of it. | 05:36 |
bouma | Dr_willis, in case you wondered, i have had this personal desktop setup which im really used to and love since like.. using lfs before gentoo existed.. where i have a non expanding autohiding panel with only a desktop switcher on the middle right, and the window selector in the upper right, and i get rid of all bars at the bottom.. many many advantages. your eyes track down as you read leaving more realestate and content to the edge. + fl | 05:37 |
bouma | ing the mouse to upper right and wheel to cycle tasks, and middle left +wheel to cycle desktops ... its nirvana for me | 05:37 |
iflema | Fezzler in a terminal try try to install the greyed out app(s) and itll list whats required then... | 05:37 |
bouma | ^^s/middle right/middle left | 05:37 |
bouma | my theory is that the cursor stays near the upper left quadrant large%, so it involves alot less effort and its a "zero" click interfacec | 05:39 |
Out_Cold | anyone have luck locking down the udp/tcp status ports for nfs?? I can't find a good solution for this | 05:39 |
bouma | the wheel is mans greatest invention | 05:39 |

sage1 | I can't find anywhere to enable the controls for the extra channels. | 05:43 |
allyourbass | sage1, have you tried alsamixer | 05:43 |
sage1 | In alsamixer I can control the channels, but that's definitely not an easy way to chance the volume. | 05:44 |

lao5 | kostkon: trying, thanks | 06:02 |
Fezzler | iflema: thanks for help | 06:03 |
Out_Cold | Dr_Willis, the original, original, original question was "how do I lock down my nfs 'status' port?" | 06:03 |
Out_Cold | for iptable rules | 06:03 |
Out_Cold | in that time i've learned how to do mild iptables rules, how to do nat, how to lock down almost every other dynamic port and also benefits of kerobos and much more... all because I wanted to nfs over the net :o/ | 06:06 |
NotTooSmart | all my memory is in the cached section in free -m 871 out of 1000mb... 986 used 14 free on a server install, what could be causing this? | 06:06 |
Blue1 | Out_Cold: I cheat and use webmin | 06:06 |
Phoenix_CMXIV | dcloneirc | 06:07 |
Blue1 | NotTooSmart: linux tends to use all the memory it can find...that's normal | 06:07 |

NotTooSmart | Blue1: usually its @ about 100mb | 06:07 |

Dr_Willis | Ubuntu XP Home Basiuc premoim ultra express | 06:16 |
Blue1 | jazonknight: ubuntu 9.10 (64 bit) and suse 11.X (32 bit) and ubuntu 9.10 netbook remix | 06:16 |
jazonknight | all in muilti boot formats | 06:17 |
jazonknight | ? | 06:17 |
Dr_Willis | what no Minix ? | 06:17 |
Blue1 | jazonknight: no suse and ubuntu on seperate machines - but my 64 bit ubuntu dual boots with mmmVista | 06:17 |
roopeshv | can someone help me with a problem, whenever i update my kernel, ubuntu kernel panics or skips the grub menu, and goes to grub shell. | 06:18 |
jazonknight | guys isnt thier a boot option u can run from grub? | 06:18 |
Blue1 | not the grub guru - it just works for me... | 06:19 |
aldo | !lista | 06:19 |
ubottu | This is not a file sharing channel (or network); be sure to read the channel topic. If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot » | 06:19 |
Blue1 | !grub | roopeshv | 06:20 |
ubottu | roopeshv: grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 06:20 |
roopeshv | i currently use ubuntu through wubi, and using kubuntu 9.10, but same problem occured when i used ubuntu 9.10 | 06:20 |
NotTooSmart | Blue1: thanks for the info mate ;-P | 06:20 |
Blue1 | roopeshv: I've never played with wubi -- | 06:20 |
Blue1 | NotTooSmart: any time... | 06:20 |
clocker | !grub2 | 06:20 |
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 | 06:20 |
roopeshv | the problem is not with the grub, but with the problem happens after updating to a newer kernel, so problem must be with update changing something | 06:21 |
NotTooSmart | Blue1: I guess I never checked it in the middle, so all I ever so was the beginning with most free, and then the end with most used for what seemed like no reason | 06:21 |
NotTooSmart | \saw | 06:21 |
iflema | roopeshv.... why not make some room and do a native install... ive a better idea.... | 06:21 |
Blue1 | NotTooSmart: yeah its designed to do that... | 06:21 |
roopeshv | i can, but will lose warranty, so have to wait for warranty to be void, anyway it is not like i am new to ubuntu, using ubuntu since 5.10 | 06:22 |
Blue1 | NotTooSmart: but trust me, the memory will be there if you run oo or some other memory gobbling app | 06:22 |
jazonknight | thiers no restore option yet in ubuntu is thier? | 06:22 |
NotTooSmart | Blue1: its a server | 06:22 |
NotTooSmart | Blue1: mpd or ushare is the most mem using prog I run | 06:22 |
CVirus | jazonknight: what do you need a restore for ? | 06:22 |
Blue1 | NotTooSmart: ahh I have only run server once - to see if I could get it to install on a 1 gig usb flash drive - for run - and yes I did make it! | 06:23 |
jazonknight | i was curious is thier option like windows that undos chnages to a time if u can problems? | 06:23 |
Blue1 | jazonknight: like the windows system/restore function? | 06:24 |
blakkheim | jazonknight: no | 06:24 |
iflema | roopeshv fair enough..... | 06:25 |
NotTooSmart | Blue1: that machine is a 2.40ghz celeron w/ 1gb im probably gonna install server on a 450 mhz pIII with 390mb ram I pulled out of the garbage :-P | 06:25 |
roopeshv | iflema: so any idea on solving the problem? | 06:25 |
* iflema is thinking GO.... and wipeout winblows while ya @ it..... | 06:25 | |
iflema | roopeshv no.... | 06:25 |
Blue1 | jazonknight: I'm not aware of anything like that -- like they say - the great thing about linux is that you're your own sysadmin - the bad thing about linux is -- you're your own sysadmin -- usually if you can get console, you can unmuck it | 06:25 |
roopeshv | so any one who can tell me what to do if kernel panics or i am in grub shell, and have no access to grub menu? | 06:26 |
Blue1 | roopeshv: dunno - beyond my knowledge level - sorry | 06:26 |
iflema | roopeshv mention wubi.. maybe wubi?!? | 06:27 |
roopeshv | Blue1: no problem, this is my first time in 4 years of ubuntu, that i came across kernel panic, so i have no clue either | 06:27 |
Dr_Willis | sounds like some hardware issues to me really roopeshv . | 06:28 |
=== lewis is now known as Lewix | ||
Dr_Willis | roopeshv: somthing just seems.. odd... | 06:28 |
* Dr_Willis has to wonder what 'warrenty' says you cant reinstall... | 06:28 | |
Blue1 | roopeshv: can you look at the system log or boot log? there might be clues there. | 06:29 |
roopeshv | Dr_Willis: but it works, as soon as i install ubuntu, and stops working, as soon as i update my kernel, so i hardly think it is hardware | 06:29 |
h0rnman | roopeshv: last time I saw a kernel panic after grub was on a botched upgrade from 8.04 to 8.10...maybe I missed it, but have you done anything that would qualify as "this could really hose things if it went wrong?" | 06:29 |
Blue1 | oh yeah never upgrade - backup /etc/ and /home/ and do a fresh install | 06:29 |
h0rnman | yeah...live and learn, I guess :) | 06:30 |
Dr_Willis | roopeshv: id let memtest run a bit to verify.. it would seem very odd that the last dozen or so kernel updates would all ahve the same issue.. | 06:30 |
roopeshv | h0rnman: i usually do normal web dev and desktop dev on this comp, so nothing to mess with drivers or kernel | 06:30 |
Blue1 | ibm's 2 rules to guarenteed success with computers: rule 1: always have a path back to the way it was, before you messed it up. Rule 2: always follow rule 1 | 06:30 |
Lewix | hi | 06:31 |
jazonknight | wow | 06:31 |
h0rnman | ok...then this is going to sound silly, but what was the last thing you were working on before this started? | 06:31 |
Lewix | what's the command to see the list of my partitions | 06:31 |
Blue1 | okay nearly pumpkin time for me - night folks | 06:31 |
Lewix | I tried fdisk -l | 06:31 |
Out_Cold | fdisk -l | 06:31 |
roopeshv | hmm, i was doing plone dev, and django development | 06:31 |
jazonknight | fdisk! | 06:31 |
jazonknight | ftw | 06:31 |
Lewix | it did not work | 06:31 |
Out_Cold | sudo fdisk -l | 06:32 |
jazonknight | i was googleing booting kernal from grub | 06:32 |
Lewix | right- didn't think of sudo | 06:32 |

quentin | hi all. I need help with a disk mount | 06:32 |
h0rnman | 'hmmm' indeed | 06:32 |
quentin | I followed instructions online and get an error with mount -a | 06:33 |
Lewix | Out_Cold: how do I see the space occupied by the different partitions. Also, what's sda | 06:33 |
h0rnman | are you using the default ubuntu kernel or did you roll your own? | 06:33 |
=== SportChick is now known as essy | ||
jazonknight | sda usally means its a scsi/sata harddrive | 06:33 |
wikkedfin | how do i install libssl-dev on ubuntu server 9.10? | 06:33 |
roopeshv | h0rnman: i use everything form the repos, nothing compiled by me and installed | 06:34 |
Out_Cold | Lewix, if you want a visual, use gparted. sda is the hard drive, sda1 is equiv to c:/ sda2 = d:/ | 06:34 |
quentin | i did the mount before on intrepid and now I'm on karmic and it's not working | 06:35 |
iflema | roopeshv id be running a persistent live usb environment until that warranty runs out.... but i may be off-topic ;) | 06:36 |
h0rnman | roopeshv: can you get to the drive in a liveCD environment and read your /boot/grub/menu.lst file? | 06:36 |
=== essy is now known as SportChick | ||
h0rnman | that may provide some clues as to what grub is trying to do | 06:36 |
roopeshv | actually, i reinstalled kubuntu, so i lost all the things, but wanted to be ready if i have to come across the problem again | 06:37 |
roopeshv | so can't | 06:37 |
h0rnman | ah...that's unfortunate :) | 06:37 |
quentin | just let me know if you can help me with the disk mount on karmic and I can wait for you to help | 06:37 |
bullgard | quentin: Please put a specific question in this channel. Nobody wants to answer using a long-winded speech. | 06:38 |

JNSamuel | up | 06:41 |
jazonknight | gparted? | 06:41 |
Out_Cold | brophat, yes but i would just install 9.10 as it would take 2 times longer to do other way | 06:41 |
brophat | Out_Cold I mean using the auto upgrader | 06:41 |
iflema | quentin fstab? | 06:41 |
brophat | Out_Cold long story, but I gotta put UNR on mem stick using mac | 06:42 |
quentin | Dr_Willis, edbian: that worked! thanks so much | 06:42 |

brophat | and with mac only way to do that is with 9.04 which came in img file | 06:42 |
quentin | yes. silly me | 06:42 |
jazonknight | 9.04 fully support macbook pro? | 06:43 |
brophat | jazonknight no dun think so. i am using mac to make the bootable usb stick with unr on it | 06:43 |
Out_Cold | brophat, i am pretty sure its possible. the update app is there. as long as you enable through synaptics options | 06:43 |
Dr_Willis | use a live linux cd on the mac. :) uise the usb-creator tool. | 06:44 |
brophat | yeaj well i guess i will let you know | 06:44 |

Dr_Willis | AlienDK: it wont be real fast however.. but it is easy to do | 06:47 |
AlienDK | hmm | 06:47 |

AlienDK | <GhostWolf> for anyone who is able to help me with the problem with gnome-ppp i got some error when i was installing, i had to download the file from another computer cause i don't have internet to connect on my ubuntu 9.10 machine, and this is the pastebin info with the config.log file.. again if anyone is willing to help me it be appreciated.. http://pastebin.com/m1e488539 | 06:51 |
Out_Cold | GhostWolf, have you tried make | 06:51 |
AlienDK | :) | 06:51 |
h0rnman|recompil | here I go...recompiling nautilus....wish me luck :D | 06:51 |
priya | hi all im trying to creat a launcher file it wont run for me when i click on the lauch file i have created the terminal windos shuts down right away | 06:52 |
AlienDK | Dr_Willis: sudo apt-get install ssh? | 06:52 |
AlienDK | :/ | 06:52 |
Dr_Willis | package manager has a search feature AlienDK :) | 06:52 |
Dr_Willis | !ssh | 06:52 |
ubottu | SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for client usage. PuTTY is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for it's homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) | 06:52 |
edbian | priya, I think I can help. You're trying to create a launcher? is that right? | 06:52 |
Dr_Willis | I think its open-sshd or somthing | 06:52 |
Out_Cold | GhostWolf, after make completes, then you sudo make install | 06:53 |
priya | yes | 06:53 |
AlienDK | hmm | 06:53 |
edbian | Dr_Willis, openssh-server | 06:53 |
jazonknight | ubottu a bot? | 06:53 |
ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 06:53 |
GhostWolf | Out_Cold if you're talking about the install of gnome-ppp i've followed the instructions to install i've done the first part and get an error and told me to check the config.log file which is why i pasted the pastebin link | 06:53 |
edbian | priya, Please being your posts with my name like I'm doing for you | 06:53 |
Dr_Willis | apt-cache search ssh :) | 06:53 |
edbian | priya, What command are you trying to run with this launcher? | 06:53 |
edbian | priya, Is it graphical or terminal based? | 06:53 |
AlienDK | hm | 06:54 |
Out_Cold | GhostWolf, i misread that file, why are you pasting the ./configure file? what is the error you receive exactly? | 06:54 |
priya | edbian, im new to linux client.x86 | 06:54 |
priya | edbian ,the command is client.x86 | 06:55 |
AlienDK | Okay, I have installed OpenSSH server on my ubuntu box | 06:55 |
AlienDK | What now? :S | 06:55 |
AlienDK | Sorry for being noob:( | 06:55 |
edbian | priya, :) What do you want the launcher to do? | 06:55 |
GhostWolf | i don't know Out_Cold it has something to do with the c++ i did it lastnight and i don't understand anything the config.log file reason i posted the pastebin info is from the config.log file... | 06:55 |
jazonknight | AlienDK: try to connect from windows? | 06:55 |
Dr_Willis | client.x86 - what a descriptive name... :) | 06:55 |
AlienDK | with winscp? | 06:56 |
Dr_Willis | AlienDK: see if you can connect 'ssh localhost' | 06:56 |
edbian | priya, If you ran that in a terminal what would happen? | 06:56 |
Dr_Willis | AlienDK: then run winscp and give it the ip of the linux box and user name/pass and see if it sees stuff | 06:56 |
darkfuneral | anyone know a tool like hidam (hierarchical data editor)? | 06:56 |
priya | edbian, i want the launcher to launch this executable in terminal window | 06:56 |
iflema | GhostWolf all you need is built in allready... has been for years.... its just not a gui... but it should get u online to install gnome-ppp from the repos.as far as i understand. | 06:56 |
AlienDK | where do I do ssh localhost? terminal? | 06:57 |
edbian | priya, Then in the launcher menu choose "launch in terminal" That should keep the terminal window open. I'm not familiar with that particular command. | 06:57 |
Dr_Willis | AlienDK: err.. whee else could you do it at? ;) | 06:57 |
jazonknight | could be magic | 06:57 |
Out_Cold | GhostWolf, run the command again and try to get the exact error. It may be that you need to install build-essentials. Is this the first time you have tried compiling from source? | 06:57 |
darkfuneral | i didn't know you could ssh localhost, says port 22 close on my end | 06:57 |
Dr_Willis | AlienDK: yes.. termianl. :) | 06:57 |
AlienDK | cmd in windows? sorry, as I said before, Imma noob :( | 06:57 |
Dr_Willis | darkfuneral: thats odd. | 06:57 |
AlienDK | yes | 06:57 |
AlienDK | terminal | 06:57 |
AlienDK | understood | 06:57 |
edbian | priya, Is that helpful? | 06:57 |
priya | edbian,it run fine when i go into termianl and go into my cd were the file is and enter the ./ client.x86 it runs fine than | 06:57 |
AlienDK | okay | 06:58 |
AlienDK | done | 06:58 |
FloodBot1 | AlienDK: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 06:58 |
GhostWolf | iflema its not built in on ubuntu 9.10 i can't install it without an internet connection im on dial up so i had to download the file on a windows computer which im using now | 06:58 |
Dr_Willis | the ssh localhost is a ;'test' to be sure it worked. :) if ya can connect.. then winscp should be able to. | 06:58 |
edbian | priya, Oooo, ic | 06:58 |
priya | i have tried that but the terminal window shuts down right away | 06:58 |
iflema | GhostWolf gnome-ppp is not built in there are terminal apps/scripts that connect dialup modems | 06:59 |
edbian | priya, the launcher starts in your home directory. You're skipping the steps of navigating the launcher to the cd drive. | 06:59 |
GhostWolf | Out_Cold its first time installing gnome-ppp as i mentioned i had to download the gnome-ppp file from this windows computer i have i rather use my nix box and only connection i have is dial up | 06:59 |
edbian | priya, I suggest putting that executable in /usr/local/bin/ Anything in there can be run no matter where the terminal is using just the name of the file. Does that make sense? | 06:59 |
Out_Cold | GhostWolf, what about compiling anything?? you need gcc which is found in build-essentials if you have never built source before | 07:00 |
edbian | priya, Then you can run the program without the CD! | 07:00 |
GhostWolf | iflema well im maibnly trying to get my modem to be enabled i can't do anything until i get gnome-ppp as i found in few documents online | 07:00 |
priya | edbian ,oh help out how do i do copy into thier | 07:00 |
iflema | GhostWolf pon and poff or similar... /etc/ppp/peers /etc/ooptions /etc/pap-secrets... its been a while but i can help if that dosent | 07:00 |
GhostWolf | Out_Cold im not building anything | 07:00 |
AlienDK | "Network error: Connection refused." | 07:01 |
Out_Cold | GhostWolf, the file you pasted is a configure file?? | 07:01 |
jazonknight | AlienDK: from ssh localhost or winscp? | 07:01 |
AlienDK | winscp | 07:01 |
Out_Cold | GhostWolf, Invocation command line was | 07:01 |
Out_Cold | $ ./configure | 07:01 |
priya | edbian, this is were this fodler with this file is right now /home/desktop/Desktop/RQC | 07:02 |
iflema | GhostWolf external modem? | 07:02 |
GhostWolf | Out_Cold no its the log file from when i typed ./configure and it gave me the error message that has something to do with c++ which told me to look in the config.log file | 07:02 |
jazonknight | AlienDK: do u know root user name and password? | 07:02 |
GhostWolf | iflema no its not an external modem | 07:02 |
iflema | GhostWolf ooo | 07:02 |
AlienDK | Yes, but nvm. I am too dumb to do stuff. | 07:02 |
nomad111 | hi all does anyone here use phpMyAdmin | 07:02 |
Out_Cold | GhostWolf, that configure file is used to build a make file from source code. you need a compiler such as gcc to produce it | 07:03 |
jazonknight | AlienDK: i waas going to suggest try logging in with root | 07:03 |
Dr_Willis | actually with ssh its possible that direct logging in as root is disabled. | 07:03 |
AlienDK | I did | 07:03 |
iflema | GhostWolf seriously but... all you need is ready to go... no downloads... but configuring that internal mode is another issue... | 07:03 |
AlienDK | but nvm | 07:03 |
iflema | GhostWolf modem | 07:03 |
AlienDK | I'll try to find another way to do this | 07:04 |
Dr_Willis | AlienDK: its possible the windows firewall is blocking things.. this is on a local lan? | 07:04 |
jazonknight | AlienDK: thiers always usb key | 07:04 |
AlienDK | USB keys sucks | 07:04 |
AlienDK | Yes this is a local network | 07:04 |
* Dr_Willis points out that SSH is worth learning. | 07:04 | |
jazonknight | AlienDK: it is turn it off to test | 07:04 |
Dr_Willis | AlienDK: so 'ssh localhost' did work? should get you back to just a terminal/prompt. | 07:05 |
Out_Cold | ssh is godly XD | 07:05 |
priya | edbian , how do i go about moving it into that folder | 07:05 |
GhostWolf | iflema im not configuring my modem im getting it to get it enabled i've searched on how to get dial up to work in ubuntu and i found 2 documents well 1 and someone gave me another one saying i need to enable the modem | 07:05 |
AlienDK | just a sec | 07:06 |
zomfgcrazy | *yawns* i am going to bed, now. goodnight, #ubuntu. | 07:06 |
Out_Cold | GhostWolf, you probably need a specific driver and the gnome-ppp c++ issues is something you shouldn't worry about | 07:06 |
AlienDK | This is what I get when I do 'ssh localhost' in terminal. http://pastebin.com/m17449b15 | 07:06 |
GhostWolf | Out_Cold all i know is when i did the ./configure in the folder it told me something about c++ not gcc just a sec and i can tell you exactly what the outcome is when i did the ./configure | 07:06 |
Out_Cold | GhostWolf, gcc compiles c++ code.. trust me on that | 07:07 |
iflema | GhostWolf m8 good luck... that may be a new approach but sounds wrong to me... whats the modem model/manu? | 07:07 |
GhostWolf | iflema i don't know i just know the chipset says conexant or however its spelled | 07:07 |
iflema | GhostWolf could be worse.... give me a min.... | 07:08 |
Out_Cold | AlienDK, if you type exit, you should logout of ssh | 07:08 |
AlienDK | Connection to localhost closed. | 07:08 |
AlienDK | chris@LPC-U-1:~$ | 07:08 |
priya | edbian , u thier | 07:08 |
GhostWolf | iflema on a site that gives a list of modems it shows conexant is one of them i can use | 07:08 |
Out_Cold | GhostWolf, can you lshw in linux? | 07:08 |
iflema | GhostWolf laptop or tower? | 07:09 |
GhostWolf | Out_Cold i don't know but im going to copy the outcome from the ./configure if you just give me a moment | 07:09 |
GhostWolf | desktop/tower iflema | 07:09 |
AlienDK | but nevermind | 07:10 |
AlienDK | bye | 07:10 |
Out_Cold | AlienDK, that was an ssh login ;) | 07:10 |
iflema | GhostWolf you get ya hands on an external (no cheap these days by the way) youll be on i 2sec flat | 07:10 |
Out_Cold | GhostWolf, i think you should go the way of iflema on a driver search. but if you want to learn how to properly build source I would love to give a lesson ;) | 07:11 |
h0rnman|recompil | can anyone help me with this error - generated when trying to recompile nautilus from source: | 07:11 |
h0rnman|recompil | trying to overwrite `/usr/bin/nautilus-connect-server', which is also in package nautilus | 07:11 |
h0rnman|recompil | dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe) | 07:11 |
GhostWolf | iflema sorry but i don't have money to do a external modem i bought this modem from a shop for a buck sorry but im not fan of external stuff atm | 07:11 |
iflema | Out_Cold sorry m8 | 07:11 |
iflema | GhostWolf its just external dialup modemsdont need drivers | 07:12 |
GhostWolf | Out_Cold i downloaded and installed scaModem and already showed the drivers are up to date for the modem to be honest i don't think i need to find one | 07:12 |
iflema | GhostWolf https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto/Conexant | 07:13 |
GhostWolf | iflema i understand that but i don't mind if it needs drivers but i believe it doesn't need the drivers | 07:13 |
h4ro_ | Is this a help room? | 07:13 |
Out_Cold | GhostWolf, possibly then, but we can't tell with out more info from your ubuntu box. if you would like instructions to complete your ./configure i can give you a list | 07:13 |
jazonknight | h4ro_: online support | 07:13 |
h4ro_ | Cool, I have a problem with my graphics card drivers. :[ | 07:13 |
iflema | GhostWolf if that true... and its ready.... youve been wasting time. | 07:13 |
jazonknight | h4ro_: k whats wrong? | 07:14 |
sumoduno | for my conky how do i remove the frames around the graphs (i.e the CPU chart)? | 07:14 |
GhostWolf | iflema my main problem is getting my modem to Enable.. i don't have a way to do it and i don't have a network settings or ubuntu 9.10 doesn't have it and i have even been told by someone here lastnight i'd most likely need to have gnome-ppp installed | 07:15 |
h4ro_ | I have kind of an obscure graphics card. It's an ATI Mobility HD 4650. | 07:15 |
Slart | sumoduno: there's nothing in the manual? | 07:15 |
h4ro_ | jazonknight: I've been googling the correct way to install the drivers, and I've had no luck. | 07:15 |
jazonknight | h4ro_: have u done updates? | 07:16 |
sumoduno | <Slart> manual? | 07:16 |
GhostWolf | Out_Cold as i said if you please can just give me a minute i only have one monitor and able to switch back n forth to my windows computer to my ubuntu computer if you can just hold up one more minute i will give you the pastebin of the outcome when i did the ./configure for gnome-ppp.. sorry but please be patient with me here | 07:16 |
Slart | sumoduno: http://conky.sourceforge.net and then there's probably a man page or two.. "man conky" might be a good start | 07:16 |
Out_Cold | GhostWolf, another issue i can think of is that when you go to ./compile that, you will be missing lots of dependency packages that you will also need to install and possibly compile | 07:16 |
jazonknight | h4ro_: thiers a update manager which usally contain drivers from ati/nvidia u need to get | 07:17 |
h4ro_ | jazonknight: Just finished, yeah. I believe I'm up to date. I'm not sure to check versions and such though. | 07:17 |
Out_Cold | GhostWolf, it's ok. i know what the error is and why it is | 07:17 |
jazonknight | h4ro_: what options do u get in system tab then administration then hardware drivers? | 07:17 |
jazonknight | h4ro_: do u see option to activate ati drivers? | 07:18 |
GhostWolf | Out_Cold how do you know what the error is? i didn't show you what the outcome is yet, just let me show you first and then you can further help me | 07:18 |
Slart | sumoduno: you can also try #conky | 07:18 |
h4ro_ | jazonknight: It's searching | 07:18 |
h4ro_ | jazonknight: AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver. When I tried that before, It had an error | 07:19 |
jazonknight | before u updated?? | 07:19 |
iflema | GhostWolf take a look @ /etc/ppp/peers/provider | 07:19 |
h4ro_ | Jazonknight: Yeah, but it is still erroring. It says /etc/X11/xorg.conf is invalid. | 07:19 |
neil_d | why does a raid1 on sata drives never boot when there is only one drive? | 07:20 |
iflema | GhostWolf man pppd | 07:20 |
tleuser | Hi | 07:21 |
Out_Cold | good find iflema | 07:21 |
priya | can some one explain how we can move a file into usr/bin | 07:21 |
iflema | Out_Cold found long ago and yes many tears :) | 07:21 |
Out_Cold | priya, typically "sudo cp /path/to/your/file /usr/bin/ | 07:22 |
jazonknight | h4ro_: not sure what esle to tell you that as far as i usally get unless thiers more updates | 07:22 |
Slart | priya: sudo mv somefile /usr/bin should work | 07:22 |
h4ro_ | I can doublecheck. | 07:22 |
tleuser | Lockoff | 07:22 |
h4ro_ | I know I'm not on 10.04. | 07:22 |
Out_Cold | priya, yes mv deletes old version | 07:22 |
jazonknight | 10.04 is out now? | 07:22 |
priya | i will try that | 07:22 |
Out_Cold | !out | 07:22 |
priya | thanks | 07:22 |
Slart | !lucid | jazonknight | 07:22 |
ubottu | jazonknight: Lucid Lynx is the codename for Ubuntu 10.04, due April 2010 - Lucid is NOT released and is NOT stable - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 | 07:22 |
jazonknight | whoa | 07:23 |
h4ro_ | jazonknight: Oh, I see. | 07:23 |
jazonknight | opps | 07:23 |
jazonknight | not stable is ur problem h4ro_ | 07:23 |
jazonknight | downgrade | 07:23 |
jazonknight | my opinion | 07:23 |
h4ro_ | jazonknight: I'm on 9 still. | 07:23 |
Out_Cold | jazonknight, a hint is that the numbers are coded to the year and month. 10.04 = april 2010 | 07:23 |
jazonknight | o | 07:24 |
jeffmr | can someone help me test some sharing? | 07:24 |
Out_Cold | jeffmr? | 07:24 |
jazonknight | h4ro_: idk | 07:24 |
jeffmr | yes | 07:24 |
jeffmr | msg? | 07:24 |
h4ro_ | jazonknight: Hmm... | 07:24 |
Out_Cold | jeffmr, share what and how? | 07:24 |
Out_Cold | sure | 07:24 |
GhostWolf | iflema did you get my message? i sent a private message to you | 07:24 |
priya | i get error No such file or directory | 07:25 |
Out_Cold | priya, bad syntax.. what is the file you are trying to move? | 07:25 |
jazonknight | h4ro_: what video card model again? | 07:25 |
priya | client.x86 | 07:25 |
h4ro_ | jazonknight: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650 | 07:26 |
Out_Cold | priya, can you run locate client.x86 | 07:26 |
priya | im new to linux what is the command | 07:26 |
jazonknight | h4ro_: i was checking ubuntu support site about ati drivers | 07:27 |
Out_Cold | locate client.x86 | 07:27 |
drazak | Hello there, I'm running 9.10 with linux-server on a 32bit machine and have 4 gig of memory installed, PAE and HIGHMEM64G are definitely on, any idea why I still cannot access the last gig of memory? | 07:27 |
h4ro_ | I'm googling the error. | 07:27 |
drazak | I see all 4gig of memory in the bios | 07:28 |
h4ro_ | jazonknight: xorg.conf is blank. | 07:28 |
jazonknight | h4ro_: it seems like s generic error try this link to support site https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver#Will%20It%20Work%20On%20Your%20Card? | 07:28 |
jazonknight | h4ro_: vi it | 07:28 |
h4ro_ | jazonknight: vi? | 07:29 |
nomad77 | drazak: afaik 32bit has a 3gb mem limit,reqs 64bit for > 3gb ram | 07:29 |
Dr_Willis | drazak: some of the memory is resergved for the hardware to use - if i recall corrctly. | 07:29 |
Dr_Willis | even with PAE and highmem64g enabled. theres still some reserved | 07:29 |
jazonknight | h4ro_: in terminal vi the locaton of ur xorg.conf see ifs has text in it | 07:29 |
priya | what is the terminal command to locate file | 07:29 |
Out_Cold | priya, it's "locate" | 07:29 |
Out_Cold | priya, "locate client.x86" | 07:30 |
jazonknight | Out_Cold: wow i never knew that lol | 07:30 |
drazak | Dr_Willis: that's rediculous, even with the 128 for video there should be another 894 meg floating around | 07:30 |
jazonknight | thxs btw | 07:30 |
drazak | Dr_Willis: that's a hell of a lot to go missing | 07:30 |
h4ro_ | jazonknight: It does. | 07:30 |
Out_Cold | :p | 07:31 |
drazak | or you know, some odd ammount like that | 07:31 |
jazonknight | h4ro_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI check this site about that driver | 07:31 |
Dr_Willis | drazak: ive read up on this topic befor. so im not sure where it all goes.. but SOME is defaintly taken/reserved for hardware | 07:32 |
=== Ferris- is now known as Ferris`away | ||
drazak | Dr_Willis: so have I, and I have a machine in the other room where I have 3.75gb | 07:32 |
Out_Cold | priya, do you get more than a few lines?? | 07:32 |
priya | i tried that i get nothing in return i even tried the folder its in it wont even locate the folder | 07:32 |
Dr_Willis | drazak: all ic an say is that it could be due to bios's not being set up to allow for the larger ram | 07:32 |
Out_Cold | priya, where is this folder? where is the file you want to move? | 07:33 |
drazak | Dr_Willis: I checked around in there, didn't see anything | 07:33 |
jazonknight | Out_Cold: how can i locate within a specfically dir or does it do that automatically? | 07:33 |
Dr_Willis | drazak: ive seen lots of articals on it. but it also depends on the different OS's . heres one mentining windows that enabled 3gb of 'user mode memory' but ive no idea on how pae/highmem affects things. | 07:34 |
priya | folder is here /home/desktop/Desktop i want to move the file in this folder to usr/bin | 07:34 |
Out_Cold | jazonknight, i usually pipe through grep ie: locate firefox | grep /bin/ | 07:34 |
Dr_Willis | drazak: i did see some benchmakrs on 64bit vs 32bit + PAE and so on.. i think their summary was 'use 64bit' at the end | 07:34 |
xiambax | yeah | 07:35 |
xiambax | usually your best bet. 64 | 07:35 |
Dr_Willis | http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=ubuntu_32_pae&num=1 | 07:35 |
Dr_Willis | Ubuntu 32-bit, 32-bit PAE, 64-bit Kernel Benchmarks | 07:35 |
Out_Cold | priya, can you please then type this? ls /home/desktop/Desktop | 07:35 |
xiambax | downside is you have less package support for 64 bit | 07:35 |
drazak | Dr_Willis: except I can't use a 64 bit kernel with 32bit hardware, I assume | 07:35 |
Dr_Willis | I can only think of a few packages ive seen that dont come in 64bit | 07:35 |
jazonknight | 64bit run 32bit apps slower sometimes only down fall i c or they wont work in 64bit | 07:35 |
tonyyarusso | xiambax: that's hardly true these days | 07:35 |
xiambax | Well i mean for small projects | 07:36 |
jazonknight | cisco vpn.... doesnt | 07:36 |
h0rnman|recompil | does anyone have an idea as to why a .deb package generated by checkinstall would have problems overwriting an Icon (.png) file? | 07:36 |
xiambax | that dont have lots of devs and what not | 07:36 |
tonyyarusso | xiambax: such as? | 07:36 |
Out_Cold | h0rnman|recompil, permissions issues? | 07:36 |
Dr_Willis | drazak: this 'part of the 4gb reserved; i think is why a few yrs back many windows machines did not bother with 4gb but stopped at 3gb. there was to much just getting lost. | 07:36 |
xiambax | tonyyarusso, until recently boxee had no support | 07:36 |
xiambax | mt-daap was the most recent one i tried that had no 64bit support | 07:36 |
xiambax | mt-daapd i mean | 07:37 |
h0rnman|recompil | shouldn't be...I've tried running the whole process as root and get the same issues | 07:37 |
CVirus | How can I run a python script everytime I login into my gnome session ? | 07:37 |
priya | Out_Cold, ok i did that | 07:37 |
Out_Cold | h0rnman|recompil, not sure then | 07:37 |
drazak | Dr_Willis: so then the question is, can I run a 64bit kernel on 32bit hardware | 07:37 |
Dr_Willis | drazak: proberly not | 07:37 |
Rahim | hello | 07:37 |
Myrtti | h0rnman|recompil: because that's what the software developer of the app you've packaged wanted to? perhaps it has the icon in it... | 07:38 |
jazonknight | drazak: it may be 32bit hardware but most likely have 64bit support | 07:38 |
Out_Cold | priya, can you paste the output in pvt or pastebin? | 07:38 |
eueu | Hello, is it possible to modify an image in a PDF file, as it is possible to extract it with pdfimages? Is there any tool that can put it back after I modified it without affecting its size? | 07:38 |
Dr_Willis | drazak: whats your exct cpu? | 07:38 |
Rahim | i use jaunty and was checking sources.lst file and i found this 'deb http://in.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ intrepid-backports main restricted universe multiverse | 07:38 |
Rahim | ' as backports repo. SHouldnt it be jaunty-backports? | 07:38 |
tonyyarusso | xiambax: mt-daapd has a 64-bit package in the repos. | 07:38 |
Dr_Willis | even my old box's are 64bit thse days | 07:38 |
xiambax | I couldnt find any | 07:38 |
drazak | Dr_Willis: Intel Core 2 T5600 | 07:38 |
xiambax | Either way. I got it working | 07:38 |
Dr_Willis | drazak: Hmm.. you SURE thats not a 64bit cpu? | 07:39 |
drazak | ahaha | 07:39 |
Broken | hello all, is anyone familiar with iFuse? | 07:39 |
drazak | it does support 64bit | 07:39 |
liouys | how to install php and sqlite | 07:39 |
xiambax | I just used the daap pluggin for rhythmbox | 07:39 |
jazonknight | drazak: make sure 64bit is enabled in bios sometimes can be an issue | 07:39 |
priya | i have never used Xchat u want me to paste right in here were i type | 07:39 |
tonyyarusso | xiambax: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=mt-daapd&searchon=names&suite=karmic§ion=all | 07:39 |
xiambax | which finally got patched | 07:39 |
drazak | jazonknight: I didn't see it in there | 07:39 |
Dr_Willis | drazak: i was about to ask how old that thing is.. even my 4 yr old box is 64bit | 07:39 |
Rahim | shouldnt backports for jaunty be from karmic and not intrepid? | 07:39 |
blakkheim | jazonknight: lol.. i don't think that's how it works | 07:39 |
drazak | jazonknight: is there anyway to do a change over without getting another iso? | 07:39 |
xx12racexx | hey whats up guys? | 07:39 |
Myrtti | Rahim: no, they should be from jaunty | 07:39 |
jazonknight | drazak: thier are 2 seprate installs for 32bit and 64biy | 07:39 |
Rahim | Myrtti: so in that kink it should be jaunty-backports, right? | 07:40 |
drazak | jazonknight: I know, is there anyway to switch without completely reinstalling? | 07:40 |
Theresa | hi can someone help me? | 07:40 |
Out_Cold | priya, it's not really welcomed in the main to paste lots of lines... you can double click my name i think and paste there | 07:40 |
Dr_Willis | drazak: quote from the artical url i posted --> the Ubuntu 64-bit kernel that often ended up being leaps and bounds better than the 32-bit kernel. | 07:40 |
xiambax | Theresa, be more specific | 07:40 |
sebsebseb | !ask | Theresa | 07:40 |
ubottu | Theresa: 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. :-) | 07:40 |
jazonknight | drazak: non that i know of | 07:40 |
Dr_Willis | Unless you have technical or business reasons for not migrating to 64-bit Linux with compatible hardware, there is no reason to stick around with a 32-bit kernel and worrying about physical address extension. | 07:41 |
Out_Cold | priya, just /msg Out_Cold <your paste> | 07:41 |
drazak | Dr_Willis: I'm going to switch to 64 bit | 07:41 |
drazak | Dr_Willis: I'm just wondering if there's a way to do it without burning another cd | 07:41 |
xiambax | When the next release rollout for ubuntu? | 07:41 |
Myrtti | Rahim: yes. I guess you've upgraded from intrepid to jaunty? the upgrade process always disables extra repos | 07:41 |
priya | ok | 07:42 |
xiambax | Didnt karmic just come out a few months back? | 07:42 |
jazonknight | xiambax: apirl | 07:42 |
Dr_Willis | xiambax: the version #'s aee the dates.. | 07:42 |
Myrtti | xiambax: april | 07:42 |
tonyyarusso | !lucid | xiambax | 07:42 |
ubottu | xiambax: Lucid Lynx is the codename for Ubuntu 10.04, due April 2010 - Lucid is NOT released and is NOT stable - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 | 07:42 |
h0rnman|recompil | Myrtti: I don't think so, but you have given me an idea... | 07:42 |
jazonknight | i win | 07:42 |
sebsebseb | xiambax: End of April | 07:42 |
Dr_Willis | 10.04 = April 2010 | 07:42 |
Myrtti | Dr_Willis: you need a new cd. | 07:42 |
Rahim | Myrtti: thank you | 07:42 |
Broken | hello all, is anyone familiar with iFuse? | 07:42 |
Myrtti | meh | 07:42 |
Dr_Willis | Myrtti: i do? :) | 07:42 |
xiambax | Ah | 07:42 |
Theresa | i am trying to install 9.10 and the disk runs but when i try to install it stops on the wallpaper and freezes... i have tried running in various run modes to no avail | 07:42 |
Rahim | myloX: any offline dictionary for linux? | 07:42 |
tonyyarusso | drazak: you could use usb instead of a cd too | 07:42 |
drazak | tonyyarusso: still need to download it | 07:43 |
Rahim | Myrtti: any offline dictionary for linux? | 07:43 |
tonyyarusso | drazak: correct | 07:43 |
Myrtti | Rahim: i wouldn't know. | 07:43 |
sebsebseb | Theresa: Ubuntu ISO's can be checked to make sure the download itself is fine, Then there's also a disk check on the psyical CD that will check if the psyical disk is ok or not. | 07:43 |
Rahim | !ask artha | 07:43 |
tonyyarusso | Theresa: also, if it's a graphics problem you could try the !alternate cd as well | 07:44 |
Theresa | i ran those checks as well as a memory test and everything appears to be fine | 07:44 |
sebsebseb | Theresa: and if your ISO is ok, you can try burning the contents slower to another CD | 07:44 |
Theresa | i downloaded the iso, so i am unsure what the alternate is | 07:44 |
sebsebseb | Theresa: still got the ISO? | 07:44 |
tonyyarusso | !alternate | Theresa | 07:45 |
ubottu | Theresa: The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the link on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal | 07:45 |
sebsebseb | Theresa: if so check it | 07:45 |
sebsebseb | !md5sum | 07:45 |
ubottu | To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 07:45 |
Theresa | yes i have the iso | 07:45 |
drazak | ok | 07:45 |
drazak | well | 07:45 |
drazak | I'll install 64bit in the morning | 07:45 |
g0su | sup guys | 07:45 |
g0su | um | 07:46 |
g0su | anyone feel like talking a noob through installing linux based games on ubuntu? | 07:46 |
g0su | like | 07:46 |
sebsebseb | g0su: not exactly, but there is quite a lot in the repo, that you can install easilly | 07:46 |
Out_Cold | g0su, use the software installer | 07:46 |
g0su | not windows games via wine | 07:46 |
Myrtti | !enter | 07:46 |
ubottu | Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 07:46 |
sebsebseb | g0su: your on 9.10? if so have a look in software centre, if on a earlier version look in add/remove. and then for even more stuff, look through Synaptic | 07:47 |
Out_Cold | g0su, in the default install, use the software centre or use synaptics and enable multiverse/universe repositories from menus | 07:47 |
sebsebseb | Out_Cold: I think those are enabled already in 9.10 | 07:48 |
g0su | oh, i'll have alook | 07:48 |
g0su | rocking Kubuntu | 07:48 |
g0su | i'm not talking about the crappy default games though | 07:49 |
sebsebseb | g0su: oh your on Kubuntu? hrm well the graphical programs mentioend, you probably don't have those, but will have something similar | 07:49 |
Out_Cold | g0su, lots of first persons, rpgs, and others | 07:49 |
g0su | iu want to try some of the high performance ga,es | 07:49 |
g0su | i* | 07:49 |
g0su | based on linux kernel etc | 07:49 |
sebsebseb | !games | g0su | 07:49 |
g0su | not windows games | 07:49 |
ubottu | g0su: Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php | 07:49 |
Out_Cold | g0su, they are all there in the software center | 07:50 |
g0su | kk | 07:50 |
g0su | yeah i wanted to check this channel out as well | 07:50 |
g0su | get to know some peeps | 07:50 |
g0su | etc | 07:50 |
sebsebseb | g0su: and if your on Kubuntu you don't have the software centre I think, by the way #kubuntu exists | 07:50 |
DexterLB | can I make windows that match certain rules to be without a close button, etc, without compiz? | 07:51 |
jamie | hid3, how can I change the applications menu icon? | 07:51 |
Theresa | where can i download the alternate cd iso? | 07:51 |
sebsebseb | g0su: this is a support channel, if you want to try and get to know some people on IRC who use Ubuntu, try #ubuntu-offtopic | 07:51 |
DexterLB | the only way I seem to be able to do it is with the compiz rules plugin, but I hate compiz. | 07:51 |
g0su | ye | 07:51 |
g0su | i know it's a support channel | 07:51 |
g0su | jeeez | 07:52 |
sebsebseb | Theresa: http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.10 | 07:52 |
Theresa | thank you | 07:52 |
sebsebseb | Theresa: in that list of files is also the md5sum and sha1sum codes, for the ISO checking | 07:52 |
sebsebseb | Theresa: your ISO needs to have the same code, for it to be a good download | 07:52 |
sebsebseb | np | 07:52 |
Theresa | how do i check that? | 07:52 |
sebsebseb | Theresa: already gave you the bot thing for that, but ok here it is again | 07:53 |
sebsebseb | !md5sum | Theresa | 07:53 |
ubottu | Theresa: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 07:53 |
Theresa | sorry =/ | 07:53 |
Myrtti | sebsebseb: remember you can use > too for the bot commands ;-) | 07:54 |
petsounds | DexterLB, you can use gconf-editor | 07:54 |
jamie | How do I change the start button icon? The one next to applications, I don't want a whole new icon set. I want to change it manually. | 07:54 |
sebsebseb | Myrtti: that's true, and sometimes that's better really | 07:54 |
ardchoille | jamie: I wrote a tutorial on that.. hold on.. | 07:54 |
DexterLB | petsounds: and? | 07:54 |
jamie | OKay ardchoille, thanks. | 07:54 |
Dr_Willis | jamie: the tool 'ubuntu-tweak' lets you change it with just a few clicks. | 07:54 |
jamie | Hahha, hello again Dr willis. | 07:55 |
ardchoille | jamie: http://ardchoille42.blogspot.com/2009/09/how-to-change-menu-icon-in-ubuntu-904.html | 07:55 |
petsounds | DexterLB, go to apps>metacity>general>button layout | 07:55 |
jamie | I tried it, it never did anything. | 07:55 |
Dr_Willis | jamie: it worked for me last night, | 07:55 |
Dr_Willis | jamie: if you change icon themes.. it will change back i recall | 07:55 |
ardchoille | james: Dr_Willis has good advice, ubuntu-tweak is probably better than my tutorial | 07:55 |
dude_ | anyone version to 9.10?? | 07:55 |
DexterLB | petsounds: but that would change it for all windows, no? | 07:56 |
Dr_Willis | dude_: Huh? | 07:56 |
jamie | I already tried it though, it restarted the panel, and nothing ever happened. it was the same icon. | 07:56 |
jamie | Probably something on my part, what do you think I could have done wrong? | 07:56 |
Myrtti | ardchoille: and ubuntu-tweak is a 3rd party tool... | 07:56 |
Dr_Willis | jamie: i did not have to restart the panel i think.. let me try it | 07:56 |
petsounds | DexterLB, all windows | 07:56 |
ardchoille | Myrtti: Ah, yes | 07:56 |
ardchoille | jamie: Give my tutorial a go | 07:56 |
DexterLB | petsounds: and what if I want for specific window? | 07:56 |
jamie | kkszysiu, WIll do. | 07:56 |
petsounds | DexterLB, idk, sorry. but keep asking somebody will know the answer | 07:58 |
DexterLB | ok... | 07:58 |
sebsebseb | dude_: Do you want to upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10? | 07:58 |
LMJ | Hi | 07:59 |
Dr_Willis | jamie: odd.. i changed the icon on my netbook.. but cant get it to change on the desktop box. :) | 08:00 |
ardchoille | jamie: The method I used for changing the panel icon is the same method used in ubuntu tweak, and it doesn't work for all icon themes for some reason | 08:00 |
Dr_Willis | ardchoille: that may be my issue then | 08:00 |
ardchoille | yeah | 08:00 |
Dr_Willis | I got so many other themes and stuff installed.. its scary | 08:01 |
ardchoille | I'm thinking that not all icon themes check ~/.icons | 08:01 |
Dr_Willis | ardchoille: so that may be why i saw it 'revert' when i changed themes.. | 08:01 |
ardchoille | likely | 08:01 |
DexterLB | petsounds: http://blogs.gnome.org/metacity/2008/11/02/window-matching/ | 08:01 |
xjolynnx | Is there a way I can broadcast my webcam on a flash website with ubuntu? | 08:02 |
xiambax | xjalynnx, www.justin.tv | 08:02 |
xiambax | live.youtube.com | 08:02 |
ardchoille | Dr_Willis: The only other method, while quite messy, does work for all icon themes.. change the images in /usr/share/themes/$THEME | 08:02 |
xiambax | and stickam.com | 08:02 |
xiambax | sorry. live.yahoo.com i mean | 08:03 |
Ferriss | okay guys. I just tried to upgrade from jaunty to karmic, my install wont start (i closed out of a little box after having left for ten hours, waited five minutes, didnt see a change in the OS so i restarted) | 08:03 |
jamie | Hmm, arch I tried your tutorial, created the folder "jamie" in the .icons place, but its not showing up when I click appearance < theme < customize < icons. It's just not there | 08:03 |
ardchoille | Dr_Willis: /usr/share/icons/$THEME even | 08:03 |
xjolynnx | that's not what i asked | 08:03 |
sebsebseb | Ferriss: ok and now what happens? | 08:03 |
xjolynnx | with linux, broadcasting on flash sites doesn't work for some reason. how can i make it work? | 08:03 |
Dr_Willis | ardchoille: that seems to be the issue.. i reverted to the gnome default icon themne. then used ubuntu-tweak and it changed the icon. | 08:03 |
sebsebseb | won't start right, but | 08:03 |
sebsebseb | what does it do exactly | 08:03 |
Dr_Willis | ardchoille: when i changed icon themes it does seem to reset howeer. had to rerun ubuntu-tweak | 08:04 |
ardchoille | Dr_Willis: yeah, still don't understand why it happens | 08:04 |
Ferriss | it gives me the error mountall:symbol lookup error: mountall: undefined symbol: udev_monitor_filter_add_match_subsystem_devtype | 08:04 |
sebsebseb | Ferriss: well doesn't matter that much, your probably going to have to re install really, plus if you do that, not that important, but Ext4 by default and Grub 2 | 08:04 |
jamie | Did you guys find a fix for it too work through ubuntu-tweak? | 08:04 |
sebsebseb | Ferriss: quite a lot of people had issues after upgrading 9.04 to 9.10 | 08:04 |
Ferriss | ugh. Well i have a disc that's lower than 9.04 even, so im kinda screwed eternally arent i | 08:04 |
Ferriss | and i have a shit time trying to get atheros drivers to work | 08:05 |
ardchoille | Dr_Willis: If you find a fix for that, lemme know so I can possiblyupdate my tut | 08:05 |
sebsebseb | Ferriss: uhmm which disc do you have? | 08:05 |
Ferriss | and i cant very well download anything 'cause ive got 30kbps connection X| gosh. | 08:05 |
soreau | DexterLB: What is the problem with using compiz? | 08:05 |
Ferriss | intrepid | 08:05 |
xjolynnx | how can i make my browser compatible with adobe flash player? i need this in order to broadcast my webcam on linux. | 08:05 |
sebsebseb | Ferriss: 9.04 is fine really for now, even intrepid | 08:05 |
sebsebseb | Ferriss: intrepid is on the verge of running out of support though :( anyway you can use that CD and access your partition and get data | 08:05 |
DexterLB | soreau: it's slow even on my intel dual core 2.8MHz processor, it crashes, it's problematic with dual-screen setups | 08:06 |
Leoneof | hi, how to share internet connection from Laptop to PC, like this: http://img138.imageshack.us/img138/3613/ics.png | 08:06 |
Ferriss | ima have a horrible time installing it. haha. does ubuntu keep its installed packages somewhere? so i can install things without having to move the screenless laptop downstairs ;_; | 08:06 |
soreau | DexterLB: Which version of ubuntu are you using? | 08:06 |
Ferriss | my lord. | 08:06 |
DexterLB | soreau: karmic | 08:06 |
soreau | DexterLB: Which model card do you have? | 08:06 |
Ferriss | i shouldnt have restarted. one more night of computer use wouldnt have been too bad. | 08:06 |
Dr_Willis | ardchoille: yea. i got about 50 icon themes installed. :) | 08:07 |
nomad111 | hey all, im trying to configure apache2 to use a new site (Document Root), i created the new site in the sites-available folder as many sites instructed. When i browse to the site i get permission denied? | 08:07 |
sebsebseb | Ferriss: I know what you mean | 08:07 |
ardchoille | Dr_Willis: hehe, that sounds about right for you | 08:07 |
nomad111 | googling this comes up with many reasons | 08:07 |
DexterLB | soreau: NVidia GF 9500 | 08:07 |
nomad111 | im not sure what to do | 08:07 |
Dr_Willis | ardchoille: definatly depends on the icon theme it seems | 08:07 |
Ferriss | thanks, sebsebseb. have you a good amount of experience in this? would there be any chance someone else would know what to do with the livecd to save it? | 08:08 |
Ferriss | ;\ | 08:08 |
sebsebseb | Ferriss: ,but even if you hadn't re started it, the chance of the upgrading going wrong, is quite high it seems, from reading about other people's experiences. normalley upgrades go fine, it's just 9.04 to 9.10 quite a lot of people had problems. | 08:08 |
jamie | Aha, I manually did it myself wooot! | 08:08 |
nomad111 | has anyone got this to work? | 08:08 |
soreau | DexterLB: If you have any recent version of the nvidia driver it shouldn't be slow. However, nvidia drivers are buggy and problematic | 08:09 |
sebsebseb | Ferriss: it's just stick in the Live CD access the partition get data, and put it some where else, got an external hard disk or something to put it on? as for programs well what have you installed? re installing stuff from the repo isn't a big deal | 08:09 |
Dr_Willis | jamie: if it work or not seems to depend on what icon theme you are using | 08:09 |
DexterLB | soreau: yes, and compiz needs those drivers | 08:09 |
DexterLB | soreau: :( | 08:09 |
=== sebi_` is now known as sebi` | ||
Ferriss | sebsebseb: i have an atheros onboard, it's hell to get the drivers working | 08:10 |
jamie | Dr_willis: I just simply went to home/jamie/.icons then to the current icon theme I was using and went to 24x24, and then places and replaced start-here.png with my own icon. | 08:10 |
soreau | DexterLB: For nvidia, the only option so far is their proprietary drivers. Nouveau is in the making and reportedly are capable of running compiz. Which version of the drivers are you using? | 08:10 |
Ferriss | well sometimes. updating to the latest official stuff seemed to work last time. im not sure what did it, but updating everything and installing madwifi and ndiswrapper all at the same time seems to do it : p | 08:10 |
Leoneof | hi, how to share internet connection from Laptop to PC, like this: http://img138.imageshack.us/img138/3613/ics.png | 08:11 |
sebsebseb | Ferriss: yeah wireless issues :( luckily only once I tried to sort something out myself, a few years ago before Ubuntu another distro. so I am nice and etherneted :) and have been for a few years now. So you don't have the 9.04 CD? Also if you were to put a clean install of 9.10 on it seems you wil probaby have to set up wireless in that one as well. | 08:11 |
Ferriss | a 'fix the current install' option on the livecd wouldnt be too bad >_> | 08:11 |
Theresa | what does it mean to 'run the following in a terminal', the cmd prompt or... what? | 08:12 |
laughzilla | hi :) anyone know why my speakers would just suddenly stop working on my ubuntu 9.04 box? all they make is a crackling sound when i test them or try to pass any sound thru them. | 08:12 |
nixjr | is there .rar file support in linux? | 08:12 |
sebsebseb | Ferriss: sadly there is no such option, maybe in the future their will be | 08:12 |
Ferriss | i dont have 9.10 though. i have an intrepid cd. i dont know if that's 9.04. | 08:12 |
Dr_Willis | !rar | nixjr | 08:12 |
ubottu | nixjr: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free | 08:12 |
Dr_Willis | nixjr: yes | 08:12 |
sebsebseb | Ferriss: no intrepid is 8.10 | 08:12 |
Ferriss | haha. I have 8.10 then. a full digit behind up to date | 08:13 |
nixjr | thanks dr_willis | 08:13 |
sebsebseb | Ferriss: you put intrepid on from that CD? upgraded to jaunty/9.04 and then tried to upgrade to karmic/9.10 ? | 08:13 |
ardchoille | Dr_Willis: PM? | 08:13 |
Ferriss | yeah | 08:13 |
LMJ | Hi | 08:14 |
Ferriss | would 8.10 to 9.10 work better? heh. | 08:14 |
Ferriss | i could do that overnight | 08:14 |
ogmious09 | Hello hello | 08:14 |
sebsebseb | Ferriss: 8.10 can't be directly upgraded to 9.10 have to go through 9.04 first | 08:14 |
Ferriss | ahdang. i cant go through 9.04 either. haha. is there a different path i could use to getting to 9.10? | 08:15 |
Ferriss | for | 08:15 |
sebsebseb | Ferriss: 8.10 is my favourite release over all since 8.04, oh yes it's still good. thing is it's going to run out of support in April or around then, but then 10.04 comes out anyway which is the next Long Term Support relase. | 08:15 |
Leoneof | hello? | 08:15 |
sebsebseb | Ferriss: 9.10 offers little proper advantage from 8.10, same for 9.04. unless people need it to say fix a hardware issue | 08:16 |
Fantom__ | what is default root pass on fresh installed Ubuntu? | 08:16 |
Theresa | what is a terminal? | 08:16 |
sebsebseb | !terminal | Theresa | 08:16 |
ubottu | Theresa: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | 08:16 |

LMJ | My PC (certainly after an upgrade) started to have strange behavior : it won't boot correctly anymore : I need 4/5 mins to get the login screen. I've seen it's stuck 2min at "Checking battery state..." It also doesn't stop by itself. What could the issue? Is it a new acpi bug or so? | 08:16 |
Ferriss | oh okay. I just figured i'd try to be up to date as much as i could so when i got lazy i wouldnt get ridiculously out of date. | 08:16 |
ardchoille | !root | Fantom__ | 08:16 |
ubottu | Fantom__: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 08:16 |
sebsebseb | Ferriss: I see, well I know what I would do if I was you | 08:17 |
Theresa | ok, um im still trying to check my iso to the MD5SUMS | 08:17 |
nixjr | is there a command to move all the files from a series of sub-directories, into their parent directory? | 08:17 |
Ferriss | what's that? just stay on intrepid? i think i'll do that ._. in the morning, perhaps | 08:18 |
ardchoille | nixjr: do they all have the same file extension? | 08:18 |
Ferriss | or just trash my pos laptop | 08:18 |
sebsebseb | Ferriss: either just buy some CD's and sort out a 9.10 CD and put it on. or just put 8.10 on stay on 8.10 for now or upgrade to 9.04, and then do a clean install make a new CD of 10.04 when that comes out. instead of trying to upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10 again with it possibily going wrong. | 08:18 |

ogmious09 | anyone got experience with NX and Ubuntu? | 08:20 |
swiftarrow | pat|nG, it's only a CD. If you want more features, I personally suggest you download the SuperOS DVD. It's the same as Ubuntu, but has more programs pre-loaded. | 08:20 |

Fantom__ | on ubuntu | 08:20 |
SmartSsa | nixjr, as long as you can match the subdir's with a wildcard, yes it should work. | 08:21 |
pat|nG | i see | 08:21 |
sebsebseb | Ferriss: however eventaully your going to want to put on Ubuntu 10.04 on (or 10.10 if you stayed on 9.04 untill it ran out of support, or another distro of course) CD R's are good to have. Makes re installing and so on easier. Well there are ot her ways to install such as USB sticks, but I never done that. | 08:21 |
pat|nG | can u give me the link bro? | 08:21 |
PacketCollision | Does anyone have any ideas on how to completely disable graphical terminal in 9.10? The server I'm working on just shows a blank screen when it boots up (ubuntu-server netboot install). | 08:21 |

actionparsnip | Theresa: it installs faster too as it uses text based installer | 08:31 |

_waseem | Hi, I am using Ubuntu 9.04. I want to install a tiling window manager on my machine. What do you suggest which one will be easy to install? | 08:55 |
wiehan | Theresa, maybe this helps: in terminal md5sum --help | 08:55 |
sebsebseb | wiehan: no Theresa is on Windows I think | 08:55 |
Dr_Willis | _waseem: easy to install is one thing.. easy to learn/figureout/use.. is the harder part. | 08:55 |
wiehan | sebsebseb: Oh, is she on windows. Cause you can to that on any linux distro. | 08:56 |
Theresa | the program was DLed from nullriver, a link i found on ubuntu wiki | 08:56 |
_waseem | Dr_Willis: So which one do you suggest? | 08:56 |
Dr_Willis | _waseem: no idea. i hate tileing window managers. :) | 08:56 |
Dr_Willis | _waseem: its all subjective | 08:56 |
wiehan | Can somone please look at this: http://pastebin.org/81428 what is my PCs problem. | 08:56 |
_waseem | Dr_Willis: I once tried to install Xmonad. But it was so painful installing that I gave up. | 08:56 |
PacketCollision | ardchoille: yeah, I don't think grub is the issue, I'm leaning toward fb issues | 08:56 |
xorl | _waseem: i love xmonad :D | 08:56 |
sebsebseb | Theresa: your on Windows yes, if so download a program to check ISO, such as the one mentioned in the Ubuntu md5sum pages sure. Then that hash link or http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.10 md5sums in the list. | 08:56 |
xorl | Use it on my laptop exclusively | 08:56 |
PacketCollision | going to try blacklisting the fb modules | 08:57 |
Dr_Willis | _waseem: its in the repos.. should be trivial to install | 08:57 |
_waseem | Dr_Willis: ok let me try again. | 08:57 |
Dr_Willis | I played with xmonad and xmobar and dzen2 once.. when i was very very bored | 08:57 |
_waseem | Dr_Willis: did you get it working? | 08:58 |
sebsebseb | Theresa: then you have the code your ISO is meant to be, as well as codes for other CD's, so just make sure your comparing the code you get to the one your meant to be. If they aren't the same re download the ISO. Then do this check again. | 08:58 |
Dr_Willis | _waseem: i dont rcall any problems with it.. | 08:58 |
darkfuneral | does XML allow you to fetch the properties of the folders that a leaf is in when you call the leaf? | 08:58 |
_waseem | xorl: Yes that is one good WM. | 08:58 |
_waseem | Ok see you guys later. | 08:58 |
maverick | umm...how do i install a .diff patch? | 08:58 |
xorl | later | 08:58 |
sebsebseb | Theresa: also if you download Ubuntu from the torrent, and then verify the torrent in the torrents program, and it passes, then the ISO should be fine | 08:58 |
Dr_Willis | wow - installing xmonad instgalled a lot of extra things. | 09:00 |
Dr_Willis | wee haskell! :0 heh | 09:00 |
xorl | cant wait for some of the new evolution builds to reach ubuntu :( | 09:01 |

Dr_Willis | ultraparadigm: yea. ya ahve to wonder HOW they managed that.. | 09:03 |
PacketCollision | WOOOO! | 09:03 |
TeamColtra | I don't care that they went out of business | 09:03 |
TeamColtra | :D | 09:03 |

midhilesh | please help me | 09:10 |
ultraparadigm | wiehan, I believe all that "page" information is refering to memory swapping. In windows there is a "page file" for it, but linux uses a "swap" partition. Did you create a swap partition, and how big is it? Your swap partition should be 2X the amount of your physical ram. | 09:10 |
=== HoodedRat is now known as Linux | ||
Dr_Willis | midhilesh: give a clear concice quiestion. for printers normally I check cups.org to see how well a given printer is supported. | 09:10 |
midhilesh | any body expert in ubuntu | 09:10 |
midhilesh | plz answer my qustion | 09:10 |
meganerd | ultraparadigm: he has 4 GiB of RAM, 2 GiB of swap is probably not required | 09:10 |
Dr_Willis | midhilesh: asking for experts and so forth - is pointless. | 09:10 |
wiehan | ultraparadigm: I think my swap space is 3gb and my Ram is 4gb. Has laso roughly been like that ratio and never had a problem | 09:11 |

Dr_Willis | midhilesh: all ive seen isyou asking for help and no real info on the actual problem | 09:12 |
Slart | paolo: probably because of the effort required to make sure both sound architectures work for all apps | 09:12 |
uwi | cupu lo bego tlol | 09:12 |
paolo | meganerd: there is no official package of oss in the ubuntu repository | 09:12 |

paolo | Slart: it would be nice to have a choice | 09:13 |
meganerd | paolo: ALSA has OSS emulation so there is no point in duplicating it | 09:13 |
Dr_Willis | midhilesh: for starters go to cups.org and see IF the thing has any support at all. | 09:13 |
SmartSsa | Out_Cold, dunno, what's the error? | 09:13 |
Dr_Willis | midhilesh: many canon printers have very little support. | 09:13 |

ultraparadigm | what is pp2p? I'm not familiar with that protocal. Is that point to point protocol, or a peer 2 peer thinggy? | 09:16 |
meganerd | ultraparadigm: VPN | 09:16 |
Noiano | hello | 09:16 |
SmartSsa | ultraparadigm, point to point tunneling. VPN. | 09:16 |
ultraparadigm | Ah thanks | 09:16 |
meganerd | ultraparadigm: it is an old protocol supported in Linux, it is also supported by Windows out of the box | 09:16 |
Dr_Willis | http://gutenprint.sourceforge.net/p_Supported_Printers.php has a list of some canon printers | 09:17 |
midhilesh | is their any other compactable driver for cannon mf4355 printer for ubuntu 8.10 | 09:17 |
Noiano | guys I see the package "firefox-3.6" is present in repositories but it has no installation candidate...will it be fixed in your opinion? (ubuntu 9.10) | 09:17 |
SmartSsa | Out_Cold, that's strange. If you can run it directly, it should work from another script without issue. | 09:17 |
Out_Cold | SmartSsa, now you see the issue :o/ | 09:18 |
meganerd | paolo: did you even google oss4 and ubuntu? | 09:18 |
meganerd | paolo: ever I mean | 09:18 |
Myrtti | Noiano: you've got something broken. ff 3.6 will not officially be in 9.10. | 09:18 |
Noiano | Myrtti, what a pity | 09:19 |
PacketCollision | Dr_Willis, SmartSsa ardchoille: adding "blacklist i915" to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf is enough to fix the blank screen problem | 09:19 |
Dr_Willis | PacketCollision: so my 'module' suggestion helped? :) | 09:19 |
PacketCollision | yep | 09:19 |
SmartSsa | Out_Cold, yes yes I do. And when something like that happens it's usually something ridiculously simple and when you find out what it is you'll face-palm yourself. ;) | 09:19 |
midhilesh | hai | 09:19 |
ardchoille | PacketCollision: Nice to know, I'll have to make note of that :) | 09:19 |
Dr_Willis | poor intel.. really needs some love.. | 09:19 |
SmartSsa | PacketCollision, good to know. Thanks. | 09:19 |
ardchoille | Dr_Willis: "love" is not what comes to my mind | 09:20 |
Out_Cold | SmartSsa, only problem is it's priya's script and her comp :o/ | 09:20 |
midhilesh | helloooooooo | 09:20 |

priya | her is he priya is my daughters name | 09:21 |
midhilesh | helooooooo | 09:21 |
meganerd | paolo: googling ubuntu and oss4 returns some promising links | 09:21 |
midhilesh | any body there for solve my problem | 09:21 |
PacketCollision | now to integrate that into my preseed file, and I'm good to go! | 09:21 |
PacketCollision | Yay for completely automated installs | 09:22 |
meganerd | paolo: I was wondering what you have tried | 09:22 |
paolo | well like this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenSound which says that it is not possible... but it is hard to believe | 09:22 |
Paschu | Hey guys, im not able to mount the other partition on my netbook. it says "Unable to mount the volume". how to fix it? | 09:22 |
hak5fan | Paschu: Which file system does it use? | 09:23 |
om26er | Paschu, trying to mount from nautilus? or cli | 09:23 |
Out_Cold | SmartSsa, we made a script file in a local directory named rqc. the script runs the other script located in the same directory... and all is softlinked to /usr/bin/rqc | 09:23 |
Paschu | hak5fan: its my windows partition | 09:23 |

hak5fan | Paschu: So it's ntfs then... are you trying to mount it with nautilus or the cli? | 09:23 |

meganerd | I have not bothered with with OSS4 since they do not support two of my machines with RME HDSP cards | 09:24 |
ranjan | Paschu: have you tried after installing ntfs 3g | 09:24 |
meganerd | paolo: I can believe that | 09:24 |
Paschu | om26er: It cant find the command | 09:25 |
meganerd | paolo: what exactly is your question? | 09:25 |
paolo | meganerd: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1389196 | 09:25 |

midhilesh4 | pls give me | 09:28 |
Paschu | om26er: 2 i guess | 09:28 |
Dr_Willis | midhilesh4: if its ntfs/vfat install/run ntfs-config (as root) and enable the allowing of users to access the devices perhaps. | 09:28 |
om26er | Paschu, sudo mkdir /media/test;sudo mount /dev/sda2 /media/test | 09:28 |
meganerd | Paschu: Dr_Willis: use ntfs-3g, it should be installed by default on both 9.04 and 9.10 | 09:29 |
Dr_Willis | meganerd: it is.. and ntfs-config tweaks it to allow users to mount ntfs/vfat on removeable media. | 09:29 |
Paschu | om26er: Uhm, something strange happened | 09:29 |
om26er | Paschu, what? | 09:30 |
meganerd | Dr_Willis: on 9.10 that works out of the box for me, no need to tweak | 09:30 |
Dr_Willis | !info ntfs-config | 09:30 |

meganerd | Dr_Willis: I usually just format the drives ext3 now, ext2 for flash devices | 09:32 |
Dr_Willis | midhilesh4: mount or ntfs-3g command. | 09:32 |
om26er | Paschu, system>administration>disk utility | 09:32 |
Nz17 | DR_Willis: Ah, so wodim maybe only does write-clear, write-clear, not write-add-add? | 09:32 |
midhilesh4 | willis just type that cmd ntfs-3g | 09:33 |
Dr_Willis | Nz17: the whole 'use a cd as a big floppy' i think uses some special features of UDF filesystems.. ive only tried it under windows.. and it worked poorly there. Im dont ever recall seeing the feature on any linux disrto. | 09:33 |
Dr_Willis | !ntfs-3g | midhilesh4 | 09:33 |
ubottu | midhilesh4: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions | 09:33 |
Dr_Willis | midhilesh4: if a ntfs filesystem is not properly closed by windows.. then linux WONT auto mount it.. | 09:34 |
Dr_Willis | midhilesh4: as a 'safty' feature | 09:34 |
Nz17 | Dr_Willis: Thanks for the info. I guess I'll just use high capacity USB Flash drives instead. :-) | 09:34 |
Dr_Willis | Nz17: yea. tghe whole - cd as a floppy - is somting ive seen doazens of people in windows try.. and lose data,,, | 09:35 |
ranjan | i am wondering with one issue ... and i am not able to find any proper answer is there any way to add more drive space in home directory .... afterwards ... | 09:35 |
Nz17 | LOL@Dr_Willis :D | 09:35 |
Dr_Willis | ranjan: you can take/use a new filesystem on some other drive and move /home to it.. or move some users /home/username to it. | 09:35 |
midhilesh4 | dr willis can tell ur maile id | 09:35 |
Dr_Willis | ranjan: a directory dosent have 'drive space' - filesystems do. :) | 09:35 |
meganerd | ranjan: it depends, is there any more space on the disk? You could always move /home (or any other directory) to a second disk if you like | 09:35 |
ectospasm | ranjan: you could always mount /hom on an LVM volume | 09:36 |
Nz17 | In everyone's opinion, is now the time to move from ReiserFS to Ext4? | 09:36 |
Dr_Willis | Nz17: ive never seen much need to use resiserfs | 09:36 |
ectospasm | THen you can add or remove space, almost on the fly. I dunno, can ext4 be resized while it's mounted? reiserfs3 could... | 09:37 |
Dr_Willis | Nz17: may as well move. | 09:37 |
meganerd | Nz17: I have not used reiser in quite some time | 09:37 |
tonyyarusso | Nz17: probably a reasonable idea. | 09:37 |
meganerd | Nz17: now is the time to switch to ext3 | 09:37 |
meganerd | :) | 09:37 |
Nz17 | I've been using ReiserFS for /home for a few years now, but I think I'll go to Ext4 in the future. | 09:37 |
Dr_Willis | ext1 ! | 09:37 |
iflema | Nz17 women basher... ext4 all good here... been using for months no dramas... that ive noticed anyway | 09:37 |
Nz17 | OK thanks you all, have a nice time. | 09:38 |
meganerd | Nz17: I use ext3 in production, ext4 on my laptop and personal machines, xfs on large volumes or ones that I share with samba | 09:38 |
ffffff | hey guys, how do i disable a card im not using in alsa? | 09:38 |
midhilesh4 | hello willis after install ntfs driver wht i do | 09:39 |
meganerd | Nz17: xfs is what I put on LVMs | 09:39 |
Dr_Willis | midhilesh4: use the ntfs-3g command to mount the filesystem in question | 09:39 |
Dr_Willis | Example: ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /mnt/windows | 09:40 |
Dr_Willis | Example: sudo ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1 /media/windows | 09:40 |

Dr_Willis | sabgenton: grub2 can boot a iso file locally.. but iover the network. Hmm | 09:41 |

Seveas | raven, judging by the lack of replies to your questions: nobody who is currently active. | 10:35 |
erUSUL | xinshou: tried with NM ? it has a few plugins to connect to vpn... | 10:35 |
Seveas | erUSUL, that doesn't do ipsec or l2tp | 10:36 |
xinshou | nm has openvpn, pptp... but i didn't found anything related to l2tp | 10:36 |
Seveas | xinshou, ipsec (ah/ike) can be set up with racoon-tool | 10:36 |
erUSUL | Seveas: ok; ty for the info | 10:36 |
xinshou | l2tp+ipsec is the configuration i used under winxp | 10:37 |
xinshou | Seveas: but how do i get the "certificate file"? the vpn i'm using only provide a windows setup.exe | 10:37 |
Seveas | xinshou, xl2tpd and l2tpns seem related to l2tp | 10:38 |
Seveas | xinshou, the .exe probably installs the certificate somewhere on the windows system. Alternatively, ask your network administrator | 10:38 |

Dr_Willis | Tanthrix: the one ive seen add the proper entry to /etc/apt/surces.list.d i recall | 10:54 |
Tanthrix | ziroday: http://www.mythbuntu.org/auto-builds | 10:54 |
mataks | i just update to the newest kernel, now how to remove the old kernels on my boot list? | 10:54 |
delta | maveas: MAC-filter? | 10:54 |
papul | it will solve many of my compiling problems. thanks ziroday | 10:54 |
maveas | delta: Absolutely not.. | 10:54 |
ziroday | Tanthrix: FYI there is a #mythbuntu :) | 10:54 |
delan | hi, i'm new to #ubuntu and i'd just like to ask a quick question; i use network-manager-applet to configure my wlan connection, but how do i get a wlan connection when not running x? | 10:54 |
Dr_Willis | mataks: unless you have a lot of kernels taking up space... id just leave them there.. juzt in case. | 10:54 |
maveas | WPA w/ AES | 10:54 |
ziroday | Tanthrix: AFAICT just download and install the .deb (double click on it) | 10:55 |
maveas | Key is correct etc. as I wrote :) | 10:55 |
Tanthrix | ziroday: I'll give it a go, thanks. | 10:55 |
ziroday | Tanthrix: have fun! | 10:55 |
kcj1993 | help | 10:55 |
mataks | Dr_Willis, i want to remove the old kernels, im won't use them anymore. do you know what's the commadn to fully remove old kernels? | 10:55 |
maveas | The other laptops (Running XP and Vista) in the house is connection fine | 10:55 |
maveas | connecting | 10:55 |
ziroday | mataks: you can find the old kernels as linux-image-kernel-version-number | 10:56 |
erUSUL | maveas: it is easier to it from synaptic. just search linux-image and mark them to be removed. aply at the end | 10:56 |
maveas | Wrong nick ;) | 10:56 |
delan | i use network-manager-applet to configure my wlan connection, but how do i get a wlan connection when not running x? | 10:57 |
kcj1993 | Can someone please help me? | 10:57 |
ziroday | maveas: my instinct say's a restart or reloading of the wireless module might fix the issue, but that is just pure guesswork | 10:58 |
maveas | ziroday: I've tried | 10:58 |
eremite | !ask | 10:58 |
ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 10:58 |
ziroday | maveas: ah, but this connection has worked before? | 10:58 |
kcj1993 | I'm not asking to ask | 10:59 |
maveas | ziroday: It sure has | 10:59 |
maveas | ziroday: Like always :) | 10:59 |
ziroday | maveas: how odd | 10:59 |
ziroday | maveas: what wireless card? | 10:59 |

sakthivel | how to install lamp in ubuntu 9.1 .. any single command for terminal or any easy method? | 10:59 |
maveas | ziroday: Uhm.. The chipset is RA61 | 10:59 |
qbmaniac | ive emptied trash) | 10:59 |
qbmaniac | any ideas? | 10:59 |
kcj1993 | looks like I have to repeat myself | 10:59 |
maveas | sakthivel: sudo tasksel | 10:59 |
kcj1993 | Is there any way to undo the last set of updates applied? I added the xorg-edgers ppa and then updated and it messed up my system. :( | 11:00 |
ziroday | !lamp > sakthivel | 11:00 |
ubottu | sakthivel, please see my private message | 11:00 |
Dr_Willis | qbmaniac: and how big is your / partition ? (df -h) | 11:00 |
eremite | qbmaniac, delete files or get a new HD? | 11:00 |
maveas | sakthivel: from there you can choose the LAMP | 11:00 |
qbmaniac | 80gb | 11:00 |
qbmaniac | my partition is not full | 11:00 |
qbmaniac | but home directory is | 11:00 |
qbmaniac | I was installing win7 on virtualbox and the size of my home directory ran out | 11:00 |
Dr_Willis | qbmaniac: home is under / - so somtjhing is not making sence | 11:00 |
ziroday | maveas: does it appear in ifconfig -a? | 11:00 |
qbmaniac | absolutely it is not making sense, hard drive has 50gb free | 11:00 |
Dr_Willis | qbmaniac: check 'mount' command perhaps. | 11:00 |
hidensoft | debconf: DbDriver "config": /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process | 11:01 |
qbmaniac | but when i go to properties in /home/ it says 50kb free | 11:01 |
hidensoft | how i can unlock this | 11:01 |
maveas | ziroday: it does | 11:01 |
=== linucks is now known as linucks[afk] | ||
ziroday | maveas: can you pastebin the output of lspci, and see if dmesg outputs anything interesting when you attempt to connect to the network | 11:01 |
oCean_ | !afk > linucks[afk] | 11:01 |
ubottu | linucks[afk], please see my private message | 11:01 |
qbmaniac | oh damn, Dr_Willis | 11:02 |
qbmaniac | it appears I've got : /dev/sda5 on /home type ext4 (rw) | 11:02 |
qbmaniac | I guess I established /home as another partition | 11:02 |
maveas | ziroday: I'll try | 11:02 |
qbmaniac | is there any easy way to expand sda5 and contract sda4 without restarting? | 11:02 |
qbmaniac | I was at the middle of a win7 install in virtualbox | 11:02 |
qbmaniac | :\ | 11:02 |
ziroday | maveas: sure, feel free to ask if you're not sure about anything | 11:02 |
Dr_Willis | qbmaniac: make a /sparehome and chown/mode it to be owned by the user.. and move stuff to it :) | 11:02 |
ziroday | qbmaniac: no, you can't resize the partition whilst you are running on it | 11:02 |
ectospasm | qbmaniac: that depends, are they on LVM logical volumes? | 11:03 |
ziroday | qbmaniac: but I would try emptying your trash | 11:03 |
Dr_Willis | qbmaniac: but err.. normally virtualbox drives go in /var/SOMTING not in the users home. | 11:03 |
qbmaniac | sda4 and sda5 are both on one hard drive | 11:03 |
qbmaniac | Dr_Willis, the .hda (hard drive) file goes in /home | 11:03 |
ectospasm | qbmaniac: you can't normally resize partitions on the fly | 11:03 |
qbmaniac | by default | 11:03 |
qbmaniac | ziroday, I had emptied trash already ;D | 11:04 |
qbmaniac | dr | 11:04 |
Dr_Willis | Hmm.. i dont recall seeing those here. but i only use little ones anyway for live cd testing | 11:04 |
qbmaniac | Dr_Willis, I was unaware of /sparehome, | 11:04 |
qbmaniac | I mean | 11:04 |
qbmaniac | the idea | 11:04 |
FloodBot1 | qbmaniac: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 11:04 |
eremite | I've got a spare partition and I want to dual boot another linux distro. Does anyopne have a suggestion for a distro that contrasts Ubuntu? Something very different yet usable? | 11:04 |
Dr_Willis | qbmaniac: just a directrouy owned by a user they can use.. not a fancy idea at all. :) | 11:04 |
oCean_ | Dr_Willis: think default is ~/.Virtualbox/HardDisks (mine do after fresh vbox install) | 11:04 |
maveas | ziroday: the lspci says "RaLink RT2561/RT61 802.11g | 11:04 |
ziroday | maveas: okay | 11:04 |
ectospasm | eremite: Slackware | 11:04 |
ectospasm | eremite: or Gentoo | 11:04 |
maveas | ziroday: can I do some grep on dmesg? | 11:04 |
blue-pearl | hello no one is in #ubuntuone can some one here help me with ubuntuone client? | 11:05 |
eremite | blue-pearl, ask | 11:05 |
oCean_ | blue-pearl: just ask, and see if someone here can help | 11:05 |
maveas | ziroday: It's weird. If I try to use the "Connect to a hidden network.." the network itself is there but I'm not able to hit "Connect" | 11:05 |
ziroday | maveas: err I would just look at the last 10 or so lines for anything related to networking or wireless when you try to connect to your network | 11:05 |
the_real_dave | Hi, I want to upgrade to the latest ntfs-3g instead of using the one from the repos. I removed the old version, installed the new one, and once I changed the option of ntfs to ntfs-3g in my fstab it worked fine. However, mounting a USB drive via the Places menu mounts it as a read only file system, the same as if I leave the option for my internal drive as just ntfs. My question is, how can I change the Gnome Place | 11:05 |
blue-pearl | i installed ubuntu one client on 9.04.....but its not in the menu. | 11:06 |
Dr_Willis | guess mine are in /home/ | 11:06 |
Dr_Willis | all 3gb of them :) | 11:06 |
Dr_Willis | blue-pearl: run it from command line then? | 11:06 |
Dr_Willis | the_real_dave: install/run the ntfs-config tool perhaps? | 11:06 |
sakthivel | how do i get all ubuntu terminal commads>? | 11:06 |
blue-pearl | Dr_Willis: what command should i type? | 11:06 |
ziroday | maveas: honestly I'm not really sure, its all just guesswork from here hoping something googleble turns up :) | 11:07 |
Dr_Willis | blue-pearl: just a guess.. but 'ubuntuone' or 'ubuntuone<tab>' | 11:07 |
maveas | ziroday: well.. thank you for your time then :) | 11:07 |
ziroday | maveas: yeah, sorry :) | 11:07 |
Dr_Willis | blue-pearl: #ubuntuone may know exactly | 11:07 |
maveas | ziroday: it's okay - dont worry :) | 11:07 |

blue-pearl | Dr_Willis: no one in #ubuntuone | 11:08 |
Dr_Willis | !tab | 11:08 |
ubottu | You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 11:08 |
the_real_dave | Dr_Willis: thanks for the reply but that doesn't help, wont't allow me to change the options, and reverts back to the old one. The weird thing is, I removed every ntfs thing I could find, rebooted, plugged in my USB and it mounted read only :S So is there a way of me removing ntfs in the kernel? | 11:08 |
sakthivel | where which window ? | 11:08 |
Dr_Willis | the_real_dave: no idea. ive never seen anything in the 'latest' ntfs-3g' that ijust Had to have.... | 11:09 |
Dr_Willis | !terminal | sakthivel | 11:09 |
ubottu | sakthivel: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | 11:09 |
blue-pearl | Dr_Willis: this commands r not working..."command not found" | 11:09 |
jackhorner | Is there any way to reduce my disk speed from 7200rpm to, dont know, 4000rpm? | 11:09 |
Dr_Willis | blue-pearl: try 'ubu<tab>' ? what command did you try exactly? | 11:09 |
Dr_Willis | jackhorner: im not sure thats possible. | 11:10 |
erUSUL | jackhorner: no | 11:10 |
the_real_dave | Dr_Willis: well, using the one from the repos takes 4 hours to copy 15Gb to my USB drive, the speed is terrible :( | 11:10 |
sakthivel | ok thanks | 11:10 |
Guard1an | the_real_dave, that's about right | 11:10 |
Dr_Willis | the_real_dave: it could bne you arehaving some issues with USB druives that ive seen mentioned in here befor.. and not ntfs-3g issues. | 11:10 |
erUSUL | jackhorner: you can force it to slower dma modes or even pio. but why would you want to do that? | 11:10 |
blue-pearl | Dr_Willis, tried the commands which u gave | 11:10 |
sakthivel | but i wnat to know commands and its usage? | 11:10 |
Dr_Willis | blue-pearl: what command EXACTLY did you use? | 11:10 |
erUSUL | !cli | sakthivel | 11:11 |
ubottu | sakthivel: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | 11:11 |
sakthivel | terminal shows only commands? | 11:11 |
Guard1an | usb devices have varying speeds anyway | 11:11 |
oCean_ | !lamp | sakthivel | 11:11 |
ubottu | sakthivel: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 11:11 |
blue-pearl | Dr_Willis, tried all the commands which u gave | 11:11 |
the_real_dave | Dr_Willis: No, when I manually mount it with ntfs-3g it flies, and gets the proper speed for my drive ~12MB/s as opposed to <1Mb/s | 11:11 |
jackhorner | erUSUL, im moving some storage from my PC to a nas, i dont care about speed but heat and noise are very important, so i need to make my 7200rpm disk quieter and with less energy cosumption | 11:11 |
Dr_Willis | the_real_dave: thats even weirder... or you found some gvfs bug. | 11:12 |
the_real_dave | Dr_Willis: ya. If I could just tell Gnome to use ntfs-3g instead of ntfs :( Anyway, Ill be back in a sec, gonna reboot and try something | 11:13 |
the_real_dave | Dr_Willis: thanks for your help :) | 11:13 |
jack5463 | I'm using ubuntu live cd. How do i run adobe flash player or swfdec SWF player? | 11:13 |
erUSUL | jackhorner: really not possible afaik | 11:13 |
erUSUL | jackhorner: install it. sudo aptitude install flashplugin-nonfree | 11:14 |
babyju | the ultimate = ubuntu + zfs dedupe. | 11:14 |
erUSUL | jack5463: install it. sudo aptitude install flashplugin-nonfree | 11:14 |
Dr_Willis | jack5463: you can install the packages for flash.. but it will go the ram disk to save. so it will not survive a reboot I think | 11:14 |
erUSUL | jackhorner: sorry that last bit was not for you | 11:14 |
jack5463 | I won't install | 11:14 |
papul | lol | 11:15 |
jack5463 | it says it installed but won't run | 11:15 |
eremite | jack5463, I have that problem with several apps from the repos on a fresh install. | 11:15 |
jackhorner | erUSUL, anyway ive found a doc on the net which explains why technically is not possible (the hd head would crash on the platter if you change the speed of a 7200rpm to 5200)... I need a 5200rpm disk i think... | 11:15 |
Dr_Willis | jack5463: what wont run exactly? | 11:15 |
erUSUL | jackhorner: ok | 11:16 |
cretsiah | o/ Dr_Willis | 11:16 |
blue-pearl | Dr_Willis: any more suggestions ? | 11:16 |
Dr_Willis | disk heads float on a air cushion | 11:16 |
Dr_Willis | blue-pearl: check the package see what binaries it installed.. or try ubun<tab> and see whats in the path. | 11:16 |

djuggler | If I already have apache installed and installed zend server will I be making a mistake? | 11:18 |
blue-pearl | Dr_Willis,; cant see the path..tell me what command to type. | 11:18 |
jack5463 | Dr Willis, flash player. When i'm on a internet site i get the you need to install plugins but they won't install. I used synaptic package manager and searched flash and installed all the programs that applied but i get the same message that i need to install them. | 11:18 |
eremite | OK, I need some help. I just installed "ubuntustudio-desktop" via apt-get in terminal, and everything installed according to my terminal. But, there isnt any of the apps in my menu. Where were they installed? | 11:18 |
Dr_Willis | blue-pearl: you type 'ubun' then hit the tab key.. it will show ALL commands that begin with 'ubunu' | 11:19 |
Dr_Willis | jack5463: you did restart firefox after installing flash? | 11:19 |
jack5463 | yes | 11:19 |
oCean_ | blue-pearl: do "dpkg -l |grep ubuntuone" -> should list "ubuntuone-client" then do "dpkg -L ubuntuone-client-gnome | grep bin" -> should list the executables (like /usr/bin/ubuntuone-client-preferences) | 11:19 |
cretsiah | eremite, you will probably have to restart window manager or x server | 11:20 |
eremite | cretsiah, I just logged out and back in, but still no apps/. | 11:20 |
cretsiah | restart x? and or window manager? | 11:20 |
eremite | The onl visible difference is that it took 3 of my already installed apps and moved them into a sub-folder | 11:21 |
sabgenton | grr | 11:21 |
eremite | logging out does restart X | 11:21 |

sabgenton | i came up as one partion | 11:22 |
sabgenton | it | 11:22 |
sabgenton | but not in ubuntu | 11:22 |
JJR | anyone...? | 11:22 |
sabgenton | will have to try it when I get home on my other nix boxes | 11:22 |
oCean_ | sabgenton: what is your goal for /dev/sdc disk? Make one partition? | 11:22 |
cretsiah | sorry eremite im used to the old way, in order to restartx would mean typing a command or rebooting the comp depending on ur preference | 11:23 |
sabgenton | Dr_Willis, does the pastebin look like a table for a harddrive formarted in windows after a zero fill | 11:23 |

eremite | iflema, what am I supposed to read there? Where is the info I need on that page? I know the differnce betwen the two, I just want to know why I cant find the apps from the ubuntustudio-desktop repo that I just installed. | 11:24 |
blue-pearl | Dr_Willis, got it working...thanx :) | 11:24 |
oCean_ | sabgenton: I have absolutely no idea what windows format does. In linux it would be a simple fdisk, then delete (d) partition 1,2,3 and 4, create (n) new partition and write (w) it's new config out | 11:24 |
iflema | eremite thats it... | 11:24 |

sabgenton | oCean_, yeah ok | 11:25 |
eremite | iflema, are you not understanding the question? I DONT NEED TO READ THAT. I wat to know why the apps are not showing. Completely different. | 11:25 |
sabgenton | I dd ed it with zeros a thousand times | 11:25 |
sabgenton | I thought that would be enough | 11:25 |
iflema | eremite they are | 11:25 |
zetheroo | JJR: you running Karmic? | 11:26 |

Willy_Wallace | pardon, anyone could help me? | 11:30 |
Dr_Willis | porki: what about it? You wanted a .rtf file.. so make it a .rtf file. | 11:30 |

Dr_Willis | Salva1: with the sawfish window manager you sort of can. :) | 11:32 |
porki | but i read that linux doesnt concern about extension | 11:32 |

oCean_ | ortsvorsteher: flowr, not exactly. Since openssh 3.0 release, authorized_keys2 is deprecated; Merge any keys in the authorized_keys2 file into authorized_keys, unless still running an ancient OpenSSH version. | 11:36 |
junkY_San | hey, is there a special channel for lucid? | 11:36 |

eremite | JJR, please follow the instructions at the end of this post http://chvnx.com/post/280205781/change-screen-resolution-in-linux-ubuntu | 11:37 |
Hetor` | linkiddu: which python | 11:37 |
iflema | eremite yeah but no ubuntustudio-desktop is not ubuntu studio. | 11:37 |
porki | in openoffice | 11:37 |
linkiddu | python 3.1 | 11:37 |
Dr_Willis | porki: use the open with ... menu item perhaps | 11:37 |
erUSUL | linkiddu: no; type that on terminal hit enter | 11:38 |
eremite | iflema, please make sense. I told you several times that ubuntustudio-desktop was not the same as Ubuntu Studio. | 11:38 |
erUSUL | linkiddu: which is a command | 11:38 |
Dr_Willis | porki: or set its properties to defauklt to open office | 11:38 |
linkiddu | I want to execute a python script.. | 11:38 |
porki | but the other doc files created by option of openoffice are opening directly in openoffice | 11:38 |
linkiddu | it says ..not path of python found | 11:38 |
erUSUL | linkiddu: python script.py | 11:38 |
Dr_Willis | porki: no idea.. those actually have some REAL data in them.. so could be its seting its empty | 11:38 |
oCean_ | porki: linux does not work using file extensions. It rather works with file type types. For example do "file empty.doc" and "file realdoc.doc" | 11:38 |
linkiddu | ok..let me try :) | 11:39 |
teage | what is the difference between this command ssh -L 5900:localhost:5900 xxx.xxx.x.xxx and this onessh teage@xxx.xxx.x.xxx ? | 11:39 |
iflema | eremite it was like you where shocked... thats all | 11:39 |
zetheroo | JJR: you there? | 11:39 |
erUSUL | linkiddu: what does « head -1 script.py » returns ? | 11:39 |
teage | they appear to do the same dern thing | 11:39 |
eremite | iflema, what do you mean, "like I was shocked"? What the hell are you talking about? | 11:39 |
Dr_Willis | porki: if you want to make blank.doc files.. make one in OO and save it in your templates directory | 11:39 |
JJR | yep steel reading the link that u gave me | 11:39 |
porki | ohhh | 11:40 |
zetheroo | JJR: I gave you a link? | 11:40 |
linkiddu | #! /usr/bin/env python3.1 | 11:40 |
Dr_Willis | porki: try removing the .doc exctensoon from a real ooo .doc file and see what it opens with... | 11:40 |
erUSUL | linkiddu: probably there is no python 3.1 in your system | 11:40 |
erUSUL | linkiddu: what version of ubuntu ? | 11:40 |
linkiddu | ubuntu 9.10 | 11:40 |
porki | yes its still opening in openoffice | 11:41 |
zetheroo | JJR: hey a lot of people are saying that Karmic fixed this issue for them ... | 11:41 |
linkiddu | I have tried sudo apt-get install python | 11:41 |
Dr_Willis | porki: extensions seem to be for our benifit. :) | 11:41 |
erUSUL | linkiddu: you have to install it if you want to use it | 11:41 |
eremite | zetheroo, nope. I still have the problem and so does everyone that had it before, from my understanding,. | 11:41 |
zetheroo | JJR: you should get karmic and run the live session and test it out that way ... | 11:41 |
erUSUL | linkiddu: sudo apt-get install python3.1 | 11:41 |
erUSUL | linkiddu: sudo apt-get install python install the default version that is 2.6 | 11:41 |
porki | but i cant see the contents in that files after removing the extension | 11:41 |
zetheroo | eremite: I just read two forums where people were saying that Karmic solved it for them | 11:41 |
Dr_Willis | porki: Huh? | 11:42 |
linkiddu | erUSUL: thanks.. | 11:42 |

eremite | iflema, are you retarded? I've stated this many times. Please just forget about it because you obviously dont speak English as a first language and I no longer need assistence. | 11:49 |
iceroot | linkiddu: what comes? | 11:49 |
eremite | thats anyway | 11:49 |
linkiddu | apache wont be removed..and port 80 is still binded | 11:49 |

iflema | eremite just do it sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-desktop ubuntustudio-audio ubuntustudio-audio-plugins ubuntustudio-graphics ubuntustudio-video linux-rt | 11:49 |
iceroot | linkiddu: sudo apt-get remove --purge apache2 | 11:49 |
|ns|nR8 | linkiddu, try autoremove | 11:50 |
suigeneris | linkiddu try purge instead of remove | 11:50 |
eremite | zetheroo, it doesnt matter because what I gave him shows how to manually set ANY resolution. It should work. | 11:50 |
suigeneris | and stop apache before doing that | 11:50 |
iceroot | linkiddu: and then ps aux | grep apache | 11:50 |
eremite | iflema, please stop. I dont need your help, you have no idea what I was talking about and what I asked for. I asled a very specific question that you obviously cant read. | 11:50 |
linkiddu | ok... will that remove all ports used by apache ? | 11:50 |
zetheroo | eremite: ok ... so he should take your script and change it to suit his res ... ? | 11:50 |
eremite | zetheroo, the end of the post teaches you how to write one for your desired resolution, yes. | 11:51 |
iflema | eremite ok | 11:51 |

arvind_khadri | iceroot, ok, are there two flash packages?? | 12:19 |
cybernout | himashu , what does it say for audio device? | 12:19 |
linkiddu | ftp Host will be ftp://ftp.zymic.com or just the ip adress of the server | 12:20 |
LjL | ManDay: "apt-cache search sokoban" will tell you | 12:20 |

ManDay | thats why im asking | 12:21 |
ManDay | does it exist? | 12:21 |
iceroot | arvind_khadri: the flash from the repos is 32bit with a 64bit wrapper. on adobes website there is adobe 64bit. imo there was a installer script in the repos for the 64bit version | 12:21 |
iceroot | ManDay: i found 10 examples using apt-cache search sokoban | 12:21 |

ManDay | whats the best one then? =D | 12:22 |
arvind_khadri | iceroot, so using it from the site is better right? | 12:22 |

sayanriju | ManDay, xsok...but that's my personal view, don't cry if you don't like it! ;=) | 12:23 |
iceroot | arvind_khadri: no, because you dont get updates automaticly through the repo | 12:23 |
Windopain | any ideas why i could try typing in "device" for sound input on recordmydesktop? the docs say something about hw0,0 is what default sets it to... i tried hw0,1 and a few others but no luck yet.. | 12:23 |
ManDay | ok but i still dont understand why aptitude doesnt find anything but xsok | 12:24 |
ManDay | thanks sayanriju , you will hear from my lawyer if it doesnt appeal :D | 12:24 |

zetheroo | Windopain: people are removing pulseaudio to get it to work | 13:03 |
clonez | dont bother | 13:04 |
balachmar | Instead of openshot you could also try pitivi | 13:04 |
zetheroo | Windopain: but it seems like that only makes it work through one ear | 13:04 |
Alexandra | Someone has some experience with the Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio Card PCI Express | 13:05 |
zetheroo | balachmar: already mentioned that :) ... I REALLY wish PiTiVi had filters though | 13:05 |
Alexandra | Will it work under Linux? | 13:05 |
clonez | zetheroo, what soundcard are you using? lol | 13:05 |
frogzoo | xfi has linux drivers now? | 13:05 |
Alexandra | alsa wiki just mentions Sound Blaster X-Fi | 13:05 |
zetheroo | clonez: why are you asking me about my sound card? | 13:05 |
clonez | because of ill informed advice? | 13:05 |
Windopain | not sure on the difference in also vs. oss, sound card is integrated on an asus mb.. i think it's realtek.. i'll try kmix and removing pulseaudio for starters | 13:05 |
Alexandra | zetheroo: So it works? | 13:05 |
zetheroo | clonez: huh? I never said I had a problem ... | 13:06 |

zetheroo | clonez: I gave a link to a thread where people were trying to sort this USB headphones thing ... maybe open it and read? | 13:07 |
clonez | why bother. i have delta 10/44 working | 13:07 |
clonez | maybe knowing how to blacklist stuff correctly helps ;/ | 13:08 |
clonez | and not playing with alsa over oss | 13:08 |
cybernout | alexandra , is suggest you use the live cd to try | 13:08 |
clonez | but hey, what do i know | 13:08 |
zetheroo | clonez: delta 10/44 ... yeah ... I see those all the time ... practically hanging off of trees ... means nothing to me | 13:08 |
balachmar | zetheroo: What kind of filters do you mean? | 13:08 |
zetheroo | clonez: well if you get it all sorted good on ya .. good luck further ;) | 13:08 |
Alexandra | cybernout: Well I first need to buy the card. And before I buy, I ask ;) | 13:09 |
clonez | im not the one asking for help sir. | 13:09 |
zetheroo | clonez: I never said you were asking for help! I simply gave inpt on what I read in a thread ... savvy? | 13:09 |
clonez | saavy. ;] | 13:09 |

zer0_mood | clonez, Im not sure :( how can I check this ? | 13:27 |
clonez | then you didn't. but | 13:27 |
clonez | your issue is router configuration. and the only way to alter router settings is to login via the admin panel. | 13:27 |
zer0_mood | yes I know - thats the problem I cant access the router | 13:28 |
clonez | and change them. | 13:28 |

Windopain | crap. plughw:1,0 is no longer working for me in recordmydesktop.. wonder if i screwed that up by removing the pulse stuff | 13:29 |
clonez | find its ip address. this is very simple using nmap or zenmap | 13:29 |
zer0_mood | clonez, well i unplug the lan cable so i can connect to the router so what network do u mean ? | 13:29 |
oCean_ | zer0_mood: when cable is plugged, you have internet access, right? At that point, run "route -n" command. Line starting with 0.0.0.0 holds your router address | 13:30 |

beachbrake | tekkno, why does pulseaudio have problems? | 14:45 |
novato_br | I've created the paritition but the ubuntu doesn't install | 14:45 |
novato_br | no, elliotsagan | 14:45 |
tekkno | beachbrake, because it uses a huge amount of overhead instead of the core alsa interface | 14:45 |
tekkno | it emulates a "fake" alsa device | 14:45 |
beachbrake | tekkno, I tried installing ubuntu studio. | 14:45 |
novato_br | I want to make partition on disk and I want to use one partition to install linux | 14:46 |
tekkno | for legacy application which cant work with pulseaudio directly | 14:46 |
novato_br | but it doesn't work | 14:46 |
ahayzen | @Jolaren: if you Sudo the file it lets you edit it | 14:46 |
jolaren | ahayzen; Thank you | 14:46 |
elliotsagan | @novato_br: ok. linux want's a space on the first disk | 14:46 |
novato_br | yeah | 14:46 |
IdleOne | novato_br: when you get to the partitioning part of the install, you need to chose advanced and tell the installer where to put / and /home. | 14:47 |
beachbrake | tekkno, fake? | 14:47 |
novato_br | ? | 14:47 |
Squeese_ | ikonia: Im a relative new linux user (from the mac world) - wich solution do you think is easiest one to adapt at start? | 14:47 |
Squeese_ | maybe its a to deep question >< | 14:47 |
novato_br | where Do I see these options? | 14:47 |
novato_br | I've made partitions correctly | 14:48 |
novato_br | the ubuntu just need to recognize them | 14:48 |
tekkno | beachbrake, fake = emulation. make old application think that they talk to alsa directly (which is not true, cause its first goes to the pulseaudio backend) | 14:48 |
novato_br | and it has to install correctly | 14:48 |
beachbrake | tekkno, :) ah! are you an ubuntu dev? | 14:48 |
gui_ | ello | 14:49 |
ikonia | Squeese_: I think a netboot may suit you overall, but a bit of a setup overhead, if you can be bothered, I think that would work best for you from the little you've said | 14:49 |
tekkno | beachbrake, nope, just someone how does more with music, and so i know the problems of pulseaudio ;) | 14:49 |
gui_ | i don't get any sound when using the flash player in firefox, i've got ubuntu 9.10 - i've tried searchign the forums, but the info is all outdated | 14:49 |

IdleOne | novato_br: select /dev/hda1 and click Edit. in the window it will have a little box for "mount as" select / and click the box to format. | 14:49 |
IdleOne | /dev/sda1* | 14:50 |
novato_br | I've tried, IdleOne | 14:50 |

elliotsagan | @novato_br: I'm new to ubuntu, but I can tell you that installing version 9.10 was very easy.... just CD booting | 14:50 |

tekkno | marcosRz, http://cinelerra.org/ | 14:50 |
IdleOne | novato_br: what error do you get? | 14:50 |
novato_br | I put /dev/sda1 as / | 14:50 |

marcosRz | cinelerrra is horrible too | 14:51 |
marcosRz | openshot idem | 14:51 |
marcosRz | i want one that works | 14:51 |
novato_br | can I put /dev/sda5 as fat partition? | 14:51 |
IdleOne | novato_br: why would you want a fat partition ? | 14:51 |
marcosRz | kdenlive is so horrible | 14:51 |
duffydack | Is there a fix or workaround for switching desktops when you have more than 1 vertically high | 14:51 |
Guest17060 | on Polish edition of Ubuntu sound works. Dunno if that depends on sound card or flash player | 14:52 |
novato_br | IdleOne, because notebook will exchange data with windows | 14:52 |
elliotsagan | @novato_br: let Ubuntu decide where it wants to get installed | 14:53 |
IdleOne | windows can read ext3 | 14:53 |
novato_br | elliotsagan, ubunut is dumb | 14:53 |
novato_br | it wont do what I want | 14:53 |

ajd2k9 | hi i seem to have a problem just recently changed from my gfx card to onboard HDMI port so i could get audio through my tv .. it works with my music but not with mozilla or vlc .. works in amarok perfectly fine its just when theres video involved .. any suggestions peeps ... thanks | 14:54 |
marcosRz | can recommend me a decent video editing app? | 14:54 |
marcosRz | a DECENT one | 14:54 |
novato_br | no, IdleOne | 14:54 |
IdleOne | marcosRz: what is decent? | 14:54 |
marcosRz | the one that actually works correctly? | 14:55 |
novato_br | the machine will have a partition windows | 14:55 |
IdleOne | marcosRz: we recommened 3 you don't like them | 14:55 |
elliotsagan | @novato_br: if you want to do what you want... I'm guessing that you are going the wrong track with first time in linux | 14:55 |
marcosRz | Cinelerra, kdenlive all sucks | 14:55 |
elliotsagan | 14:55 | |
marcosRz | Yeah | 14:55 |
marcosRz | it seems the is not a decent video editing app on linux | 14:55 |
marcosRz | It seems the best one is the one that the vlc guys are doing | 14:55 |
novato_br | don't worry, elliotsagan | 14:55 |
marcosRz | but it's not funcional right know | 14:55 |
novato_br | I made that before | 14:55 |
chilli0 | ikonia, Oh and. This may be the reason. The source of the files is on a external hard drive ( usb 2.0 ) | 14:55 |
IdleOne | marcosRz: what is wrong with Cinelerra or OpenShot? | 14:55 |
marcosRz | it sucks not being able toe dit videos | 14:55 |
marcosRz | IdahoEv, they both sucks? | 14:56 |
marcosRz | they look like 10 years ago apps for editing | 14:56 |
novato_br | I am not familiarized with this ubuntu version | 14:56 |
marcosRz | don 't even compare to adobe premiere | 14:56 |
oCean_ | marcosRz: please calm down | 14:56 |
marcosRz | or even windows movie maker | 14:56 |
marcosRz | :) | 14:56 |
marcosRz | both are beter | 14:56 |
novato_br | I have 160GB | 14:56 |
marcosRz | Openshot lasted 30secs on my ubuntu | 14:56 |
marcosRz | its horrible | 14:56 |
novato_br | I want ubuntu use just 50GB | 14:57 |
tekkno | marcosRz, windows movie maker sucks too and Kino is quite close to that | 14:57 |
fograven | says I don't have the required drivers? | 14:57 |

gui_ | does amarok usually take ver long/become unresponsive when scanning large music collections? | 14:57 |
tekkno | marcosRz, but there is no premiere on linux, true. you can try wine to emulated if you want the same | 14:57 |
marcosRz | yeah | 14:58 |
marcosRz | best bet | 14:58 |
IdleOne | marcosRz: both projects have Donate buttons. Takes time and money to put in the type of work you are expecting for free. Now had you spent $400 on one of these free alternatives I could see you complaining but compairing them to proprietary software is not a fair comparison | 14:58 |
marcosRz | :( | 14:58 |
chilli0 | marcosRz, Well then stop complaining. Install windows in a vm and there you go. I run sony vegus 9 on it fine | 14:58 |
marcosRz | IdleOne, Windows Movie Maker is "free" | 14:58 |
gui_ | can anyone help me with getting sound to work on youtube? | 14:58 |
IdleOne | Windows isn't! | 14:58 |
marcosRz | I'm almost installing windows on a vm | 14:58 |
oCean_ | marcosRz: stop. This is not contributing to this channel in any way. | 14:58 |
marcosRz | just because it has decent apps | 14:58 |
IdleOne | trust me you paid for Win Movie maker | 14:58 |
tekkno | marcosRz, nope ;) you just buy it with windows | 14:58 |
ajd2k9_ | gui : are you having trouble with just video sound? | 14:58 |
marcosRz | i know thats why I putted "" | 14:58 |
marcosRz | so at least it works -_- | 14:59 |
gui_ | ajd2k9, yes, sound in rhytmbox, amarok, etc works fine | 14:59 |
novato_br | earlier It was so easy to do that | 14:59 |
tekkno | the other apps work too ;) | 14:59 |
tekkno | and they are freee | 14:59 |
ahayzen | Aren't we getting PiTiVi with 10.04 which is like movie maker??? | 14:59 |

novato_br | I don't know | 14:59 |
elliotsagan | Is there an application for easily install .tar.bz packets? | 14:59 |
tekkno | so if you dont like the look -> get some coding skills and change the look and feel ;) | 14:59 |
tekkno | opensource baby ;) | 14:59 |
ajd2k9_ | have you tried a video in vlc .. | 14:59 |
chilli0 | marcosRz, It really doesn't work that great. Try saving the video. It will take 5h for a 10min long video | 14:59 |

Switch10 | masingerz: the install process will take care of the partitioning | 15:18 |
LjL | _raven: uhm, the reasons why sudo might not work could be 1) that your user is not in the group "admin" anymore, 2) that /etc/sudoers has become bad 3) that /usr/bin/sudo is not setuid root. you can check for these things from recovery mode, i think | 15:19 |

pfred1 | _raven init 1 is forced root access | 15:21 |
LjL | _raven: well, i have no idea either, but you should be able to obtain a shell at least by editing your kernel line from the GRUB menu and putting "init=/bin/bash" | 15:21 |
pfred1 | _raven only root access! | 15:21 |

masingerz | Switch10 scunizi i go into manual andi view the 60 gb partitino, then what? | 15:22 |
steffan | usmanasim: image_to_usb.sh is not in the working directory that you're currently in | 15:22 |
=== maarek is now known as MaarekStele | ||
iceroot | usmanasim: run that command at the location from the script | 15:22 |
usmanasim | How do I find that ? | 15:23 |
pfred1 | _raven your best bet might be to try using the install CD in recovery mode because booting in single mode can be a pain | 15:23 |
scunizi | masingerz: depends .. how many other partitions on this drive? | 15:23 |

ajd2k9_ | hi i seem to have a problem just recently changed from my gfx card to onboard HDMI port so i could get audio through my tv .. it works with my music but not with mozilla or vlc .. works in amarok perfectly fine its just when theres video involved .. any suggestions peeps ... thanks??? | 15:23 |
masingerz | scunizi 4 parititions on the drive | 15:24 |
pfred1 | _raven I mean theres a million ways to fix your problem some are harder to do than others though | 15:24 |

masingerz | but the space i want to use to install ubuntu is on the 60gb | 15:25 |
Dimoutlook | Hi All | 15:25 |
_raven | pfred1 what is the best solution | 15:25 |
masingerz | i have an asus 1000he netbok | 15:25 |
usmanasim | steffan: the file is in the working directory i just checked but why is it still not working | 15:25 |
hidensoft | hi all | 15:25 |
pfred1 | _raven the easiest which is probably just dropping in your install CD and booting off of it | 15:25 |
scunizi | masingerz: then you have another issue.. you need to delete one partiiton (the 60 gig one you want to install ubuntu into) .. then create an extended partition.. inside the extended partition you can install ubuntu.. you might even be able to use "guided" partitioning .. just point it at the partition and let it do it's thing. | 15:25 |
masingerz | andi would like to dual boot | 15:25 |
hidensoft | i can't using mode_rewrite | 15:25 |
steffan | usmanasim: 'ls' shows that the file is in the current directory? | 15:25 |
hidensoft | please help me | 15:25 |
usmanasim | steffan: yep | 15:26 |
masingerz | ok | 15:26 |
steffan | usmanasim: see if 'bash image_to_usb.sh' works instead | 15:26 |

bomber | kubuntu 9.10n | 15:29 |
steffan | usmanasim: pastebin the output of 'ls' and the error output of the command and I'll take a look | 15:29 |
steffan | NativeAngels: check that sc_serv is in the current working directory | 15:29 |
_raven | pfred1 could you tell me the way a bit? | 15:29 |
NativeAngels | how do i do that steffan | 15:29 |
Shaan7 | bomber: you know on which partition kubuntu is installed ? (/dev/sdX) | 15:30 |

ubottu | electro: Por favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Para a comunidade local portuguêsa, #ubuntu-pt. Obrigado. | 15:30 |
bomber | well its on the 2nd partition of the sata diskn | 15:31 |
pfred1 | _raven I've evne overinstalled Linux distros over hashed existing ones and that works suprisingly well | 15:31 |
sebsebseb | macman_: no | 15:31 |
Switch10 | macman_: all mine have been. | 15:31 |
pfred1 | _raven just don't format anything! | 15:31 |
macman_ | Switch10: what gfx cards any intel ones ? | 15:31 |
ablyss | steffan: that would be correct if you said ls -A | 15:31 |
sebsebseb | macman_: Switch10 wireless is a common issue | 15:31 |
_raven | pfred1 which files are needed to edit/blank the password? | 15:31 |
sebsebseb | macman_: Intel graphics should be fine on 9.10, it was an issue on 9.04, not all of them though when it came to 9.04 | 15:32 |
pfred1 | _raven I've used vi on /etc/passwd | 15:32 |
Switch10 | macman_: ya I just bought a sparkle nvidia card. It worked great | 15:32 |
macman_ | Switch10: i need a laptop | 15:32 |
macman_ | this one i have is cool but i don't like it anymore lol .. plus the battery is gone | 15:32 |
macman_ | i always have to be plugged in | 15:32 |
Shaan7 | bomber: basically what you've to do is - 1. Boot from a 9.10 LiveCD 2. Mount the partition which has ubuntu installed to /mnt (say) 3. sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt --recheck /dev/sda | 15:32 |
ckosmowski | #germanrock | 15:33 |
steffan | ablyss: i said that 'ls' will show all files in the current directory which is correct. -A hides hidden files | 15:33 |
steffan | ablyss: which we don't want to do :) | 15:33 |
NativeAngels | im in the right folder steffan | 15:33 |
Shaan7 | bomber: to find which partition it is, do 'sudo parted --list' and check for a ext formatted partition. | 15:33 |
bomber | ok | 15:33 |
Shaan7 | bomber: then mount it using, 'sudo mount /dev/sdXn /mnt' for me its sudo mount /dev/sda7 /mnt | 15:33 |
Switch10 | macman_: you should be ok. If the card doesn't work go buy one of those USB wireless adapters. I have one of those as well. It works great | 15:33 |

sebsebseb | macman_: Switch10 a lot of USB wireless's won't just work as far as I know | 15:36 |
bomber | i wrote it down... now i'll try... im in puppy live cd right now but i'll boot to the kubuntu cd and try that | 15:36 |
Switch10 | sebsebseb: agai | 15:36 |
bomber | thanks a lot | 15:36 |
sebsebseb | Switch10: what? | 15:36 |
Switch10 | sebsebseb: I bought some random cheap one and it worked awesome | 15:36 |
sebsebseb | Switch10: ok, but wireless is a main problem area for Ubuntu | 15:37 |
ablyss | steffan: what on earth r u talking about | 15:37 |
Shaan7 | bomber: np, all the best | 15:37 |
steffan | ablyss: you said that -A will show all files including hidden files. -A hides hidden files from the output meaning that a plain 'ls' will show hidden files too | 15:37 |
Switch10 | sebsebseb: I guess I have just been lucky then. I never have had to many problems with about 10 different cards | 15:38 |
sebsebseb | Switch10: yeah I guess you were lucky or something like that | 15:38 |
pfred1 | steffan are you sure your ls isn't aliased or something? | 15:38 |
guest | hi | 15:39 |
sebsebseb | guest: hi | 15:39 |
ablyss | steffan: maybe ls -a would be more of what i meant | 15:40 |
scunizi | steffan: sounds like something on your system has changed.. ls by itself will not show hidden files.. ls -a *will* show hidden files. if your's is functioning opposite then someone changed something. | 15:40 |
steffan | aparently that is what has happened. the manpage for ls shows -A as 'List all entries except for . and ...' meaning that -A will hide . and ... files? | 15:41 |
steffan | or is it just worded wrong? | 15:41 |
trism | steffan: no, that is correct, but that is also the default behavior | 15:42 |
ablyss | i think its worded wrong, the man page for ls -A makes no sense | 15:42 |
steffan | ablyss: that is what was causing the confusion between me and you, it is worded wrong | 15:42 |
trism | steffan: no I take it back, -A just hides . and .., not the rest of the hidden files | 15:43 |
guest | WHEN I GET UBUNTU 9.10 ABOUT 2 OR 3 MONTHY AGO THERE WAS SOME ERROR IN IT SUCH AS ERROR WITE NETWORK MANAGER 2 DAYS AGO I DOWNLOAD IT AGIN MY QUESTION IS THIS IS THIS PROMLEMS ARE FIXED OR NOT? | 15:43 |
steffan | as i rarely use another other than a plain 'ls' i looked at the manpage and assumed that would be correct | 15:43 |
steffan | !caps | guest | 15:43 |
ubottu | guest: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. | 15:43 |
ablyss | steffan: well, i should have said ls -a, not ls -A but im not sure what the difference is myself lol | 15:43 |
Mugua | list | 15:43 |
Switch10 | guest: no | 15:44 |
scunizi | guest: depends on your hardware.. nobody can answer that question | 15:44 |

IdleOne | guest best thing would be to download the livecd and test it | 15:45 |
arghh2d2 | ls -a lists .dotfiles and ls -A is just like ls without the . and .. directory switchers | 15:45 |
guest | thanx to all | 15:46 |
ablyss | ah, so ls -A does not ignore files with dots just foldes | 15:46 |
ablyss | i wonder about symlinks, | 15:47 |
arvind_khadri | ablyss, arghh2d2 the files starting with . are hidden files | 15:47 |
trism | ablyss: no, ls -A and ls -a are identical except that ls -A doesn't list the current directory (.) and the parent directory (..) | 15:48 |
ablyss | no wonder the man page made no sense.. its totally nuts | 15:48 |
arghh2d2 | ablyss: ls -A doesnt "ignore" .hiddendotfiles anymore than a regular ls...theyre just hidden | 15:48 |
scunizi | ablyss: try "man ls" in a terminal for more info. | 15:48 |
arghh2d2 | no, man page good | 15:49 |

macman_ | yes .. sebsebseb but that website only has like 1 jaunty test | 16:11 |
eremite | Switch10, how about you go fuck yourself? | 16:11 |
xangua | macman_: dell¿¿ | 16:11 |
sebsebseb | eremite: oh right I see ok, yeah that's something else, certain things that worked fine in jaunty don't in karmic | 16:11 |
xangua | !languaje | eremite | 16:11 |
Shaan7 | ugh why don't people mind their keyboard :P | 16:11 |
sillyCEO | eremite: relax dude- its a computer. | 16:11 |
macman_ | xangua: just got for the dell ones ? | 16:11 |
Switch10 | eremite: how about you leave | 16:11 |
macman_ | xangua: any dell ? | 16:11 |
sebsebseb | sillyCEO: he's gone now | 16:11 |
sebsebseb | sillyCEO: since kicked | 16:11 |
grkblood13 | are their any tax programs for ubuntu? | 16:12 |
grkblood13 | stuff at walmart like H&R block says you need windows or mac | 16:12 |
scunizi | eremite: right mouse click the speaker icon and choose properties. depending on the setup you should be able to find a function that will add more slider controls.. including mic controls.. for playback mute on/off (on the mic) .. perhaps the "Capture" slider needs to be set.. all these are dependant on your audio card | 16:13 |
steffan | !software | grkblood13 | 16:13 |
ubottu | grkblood13: A general introduction to the ways software can be installed, removed and managed in Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoftwareManagement - See also !Packages, !Equivalents | 16:13 |
sillyCEO | sebsebseb: thx. | 16:13 |
Switch10 | grkblood13: I use the turbo tax browser version | 16:13 |
ikonia | sillyCEO: he's gone | 16:13 |
sebsebseb | macman_: ok that webpage is a bit useless really, your lucky in a way, since you live in USA, which means you also have system76 as an option if you want to buy pre installed Ubuntu lap top. http://www.dell.com/ubuntu http://www.system76.com http://www.zareason.com | 16:13 |
ikonia | sillyCEO: sorry | 16:13 |
ikonia | scunizi: he's gone | 16:13 |
sillyCEO | ikonia: no worries! | 16:13 |
sillyCEO | When I switch off my WIFI router, ubuntu throws up a dialog ("Authentication require by wireless network"). I'm leaving this unsupervised, so I want NO dialog... just want it to keep trying to hop back on. Any ideas? :) | 16:13 |
grkblood13 | Steffan, that has absolutely nothing to do with what i asked | 16:14 |
grkblood13 | WHY DO PEOPLE DO THAT IN HERE? | 16:14 |
ikonia | grkblood13: please don't use caps, it's pointless | 16:14 |
steffan | grkblood13: most software is open source and thus free of charge on ubuntu, you want to search using whatever package manager you're using and stop looking for ubuntu software in WalMart | 16:15 |
steffan | grkblood13: the link i gave you will have more information on searching for software for ubuntu | 16:15 |
arvind_khadri | grkblood13, i guess you would like to check out, kwallet , not sure though, there are billing softwares | 16:15 |
jaydawg | they sell good software for ubuntu in walmart? | 16:15 |
grkblood13 | no, the link you gave me is described as software management | 16:15 |
Slart | grkblood13: you asked for tax software.. that factoid from ubuntu explains how to search for software, descriptions etc.. | 16:15 |
grkblood13 | i didnt ask anythign about software management | 16:16 |
=== lucas_ is now known as amao- | ||
ikonia | grkblood13: yes, software managment will allow you to search for software for your needsw | 16:16 |
iceroot | grkblood13: apt-cache search tax | 16:16 |
ikonia | needs | 16:16 |
Jancsy | g'day. :) | 16:16 |
ikonia | grkblood13: check out the link and it will help you with not only this software requirment but your others, as there is very little comercial software for linux | 16:16 |
grkblood13 | like what iceroot said | 16:16 |
Kettlen | I'm trying to build a home NAS - can Ubuntu server go into suspend mode, or only Ubuntu desktop? | 16:16 |
steffan | grkblood13: that link provides all the information that is required to search for software, which is what you initially asked for | 16:16 |
grkblood13 | thats actually useful | 16:16 |
scunizi | grkblood13: you want something for personal finance? kmymoney, gnucash and others | 16:16 |
Slart | grkblood13: apt-cache search tax accounting would give you a list of some software where the description includeds those two words.. you can also use synaptic to search for packages with certain words.. is this not useful? | 16:16 |
ikonia | Kettlen: you can suspend ubuntu server, however why not use the desktop, it makes a great server OS | 16:17 |
iceroot | grkblood13: its the same ubottu told you but which a gui instead of cli | 16:17 |
macman_ | question you guys xangua or sebsebseb ... according to the laptoptestingteam .. a dell stuiod 15 works fine .. im looking at t dell studio xps from best buy ..do you think that will be good ? | 16:17 |
ikonia | macman_: most dells are well supported | 16:18 |
macman_ | ok | 16:18 |
Kettlen | ikonia: I suppose. I don't know a lot about Ubuntu, trying to figure out how to do it all! I'll be using a 4gb USB as OS-drive and 2x1TB drives in software RAID, serving files on the network, making backups and downloading torrents | 16:18 |
macman_ | ikonia: out of box ? | 16:18 |
macman_ | yea this dell im on now is a dell precision m90 .. everything works :P | 16:18 |
ikonia | Kettlen: the desktop OS will be fine, I assure you, plus it will be easier for you to learn while you set it up | 16:18 |
ikonia | macman_: yes, out of the box | 16:18 |
ikonia | Kettlen: putting your OS on a USB disk may not be the best move, try to use an internal bus drive | 16:19 |
Roasted | How dirty of a job would it be to take my existing Ubuntu install on my laptop (1 partition) and separate root from home? | 16:19 |
gui7 | what would i add to my crontab to have a particular script run every 30 minutes? | 16:19 |
sebsebseb | macman_: Apparantly bestuby aren't that good to buy from, probably better to just buy online from one of those sites I gave you | 16:19 |
gui7 | instead of at time X, just every 30mins | 16:19 |
ikonia | Roasted: have you got spare disk space ? | 16:19 |
Kettlen | ikonia: thanks for the tip! why not a USB drive, by the way? | 16:19 |
ikonia | Kettlen: slower interface | 16:19 |
sillyCEO | Anyone? Bueller? | 16:19 |
ikonia | Kettlen: so your core OS would be on the slowest interface | 16:19 |
Roasted | ikonia, yes. My boss (work laptop) gave me a 250gb drive - upgraded from 160. I installed Ubuntu without thinking and I have 1 partition. I ALWAYS manually edit root and home separate. I failed this time. :( | 16:19 |
Slart | Roasted: if you've got the space it isn't to hard.. copying the files over will use up most of the time spent | 16:20 |
ikonia | sillyCEO: saying anyone is pointless, if they know the answer they will respond, if they don't "anyone" won't make them know, if they didn't see the question "anyone" doesn't expalin it | 16:20 |
iceroot | gui7: */30 * * * * script | 16:20 |
jaydawg | should i trust all the software in the Ubuntu Software Center? All of it is open source right meaning someone looked at the code and think its safe | 16:20 |
Kettlen | ikonia: well, I'll be using 2 S-ATA drives for the backup and file sharing, which is the essential part. Would that be affected by the USB performance (if the OS is on USB drive)? | 16:20 |
sanskumar | help | 16:20 |
Roasted | Slart, it's really an almost brand new install. Theres not much there. I was just going to install a VM of win7 (calls for 20gb, ouch) and I decided this is where I should split them before I get too involved on this install. | 16:20 |
steffan | gui7: */30 * * * * | 16:20 |
ikonia | Roasted: is all the disk allocated ? (not in use but allocated) | 16:20 |
sillyCEO | ikonia: Excellent point. Sorry. | 16:20 |
steffan | iceroot: sorry! | 16:20 |
gui7 | iceroot, i understand - thanks! :D | 16:20 |
ikonia | Kettlen: yes | 16:20 |
sebsebseb | sanskumar: with? | 16:20 |
Kettlen | oh ok I'll have to get a solid state drive then (want silence) | 16:21 |
sillyCEO | ikonia: what's the etiquette for how often to ask? | 16:21 |
sanskumar | i have installed new xchat irc on my laptop | 16:21 |
ikonia | Kettlen: there are many VERY quiet drives on the market, you don't need solid state | 16:21 |
sanskumar | wen i try to connect to freenode | 16:21 |
sanskumar | it says | 16:21 |
Roasted | ikonia, Im booted to gparted right now. My partitions are - 30gb NTFS, 1gb swap, 11gb root, 125gb /images (for imaging, work purposes), and 65gb unallocated. So I'm trying to squeeze in about 60gb to /home... | 16:21 |
ikonia | sillyCEO: common sense really, 5 - 10 minutes | 16:21 |
sanskumar | connection failed | 16:21 |
ikonia | sillyCEO: if tons of new people join, it's also worth asking | 16:21 |
iceroot | sanskumar: #freenode | 16:21 |
sanskumar | how to register for freenode ? | 16:21 |
Slart | Roasted: use gparted to create the new partition where your home will be (shrink, move, do whatever you have to in gparted), copy the files over from the current home folder to the new partition.. edit fstab and include your new home drive... reboot.. make sure everything works | 16:21 |
iceroot | sanskumar: ask in #freenode | 16:22 |
Kettlen | ikonia: actually I realize now that the MB I bought only has 2 S-ATA. Would it be stupid to put the OS on my mirrored 2x1TB disks? | 16:22 |
Slart | !register | sanskumar | 16:22 |
sillyCEO | ikonia: k, thx. | 16:22 |
ubottu | sanskumar: Information about registering your nickname: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#userregistration - Type « /nick <nickname> » to select your nickname. Registration help available in #freenode | 16:22 |
zacktu | How can I get the "Save As" dialog not to show hidden files? | 16:22 |
Roasted | Slart, what should my setting in fstab be? Should I just match them to what root is? Like the defaults - 0 2, or whatever? | 16:22 |
ikonia | Roasted: that is pefect, create a partition on your 65 gig unallocated, put a file system on it, mount it on /mnt, copy the contents of /home to /mnt, unmount /mnt, put an entry in /etc/fstab for /home to be on your new partition, reboot, and your done | 16:22 |
sanskumar | #freenode | 16:22 |
sanskumar | sorry | 16:22 |
jaydawg | anyone know if its ok to trust password managers on ubuntu software center? open source on the repository means its been looked at and safe right? | 16:22 |
duffydack | zacktu, ctrl H | 16:22 |
ikonia | Kettlen: that would be fine, and very resillient, good idea | 16:22 |
sebsebseb | sanskumar: ok I don't use Xchat, I use Konversation instead which is a pretty nice one, but KDE app, so if you were to put that on in Ubuntu/Gnome it would want to put on quite a bit of KDE stuff on as well, if you haven't installed KDE stuff before. Anyway someone else can probably help here with Xchat or join #freenode and ask about it | 16:22 |
Roasted | ikonia, can I do all of this within gparted itself? Does it have a file manager to do this? | 16:22 |
Slart | Roasted: yes.. change / to /home and the uuid's.. that should do it | 16:22 |
ikonia | Roasted: because you're not altering a partition thats in use, yes. | 16:23 |
Kettlen | ikonia: In that case though, would I need to have hardware RAID, or could it be done via Ubuntu somehow? I don't think my motherboard has RAID built in | 16:23 |
Roasted | slart, ikonia, awesome - thanks guys. I'll give this a whirl now. | 16:23 |
macman_ | ikonia: xxploit sebsebseb what do you think about this one http://is.gd/6WoYj < --- | 16:23 |
ikonia | Kettlen: software raid is very very good | 16:23 |
ikonia | macman_: it's a dell - you've been told dells are well supported | 16:23 |
Kettlen | ikonia: so I can install it on one of the drives first, and then have Ubuntu copy that disk to the other? | 16:24 |
ikonia | macman_: what more do you want ? | 16:24 |
macman_ | ikonia: oh nothing .. just want you to see the quality :D | 16:24 |
ikonia | Kettlen: linux (ubuntu) comes with software raid, if you use the alternative install CD you can install to software raid (mirrored) | 16:24 |
ikonia | Kettlen: it works very very well | 16:24 |
macman_ | 6gigs ram :D | 16:24 |
=== xod is now known as onats | ||
ikonia | macman_: so ? | 16:24 |
Slart | Roasted: you might want to rename the old /home folder to something else before rebooting... /oldhome or something like that | 16:24 |
Roasted | slart, ikonia - would it be hard to swap my partitions around, so I see it as root/home/images instead of root/images/home? Or is it kind of useless? | 16:24 |
ikonia | Roasted: does it matter ? | 16:25 |
macman_ | ikonia: nvm .. just wanted you guys to do a once over .. im good | 16:25 |
clamiax | bye | 16:25 |
Slart | Roasted: there's no reason to do that.. perhaps a very small speed difference.. and lots of time wasted | 16:25 |
sebsebseb | macman_: i'll have a look hold on | 16:25 |
Roasted | Slart -well my install is so minimal, I was just going to flash drive the contents of /home + hidden folders and mount it, reboot, and throw them back over. | 16:25 |
ikonia | Roasted: the order of the partitions means nothing | 16:25 |
Kettlen | ikonia: OK I see. If I put the OS on this mirrored set of drives - would they constantly have to be spinning? Or at least, spin up as soon as the OS needs to read to/from a file? | 16:25 |
Slart | Roasted: ah.. that might work too.. don't forget all the hidden files though | 16:25 |
ikonia | Kettlen: correct (I forgot you wanted to hibernate) | 16:26 |
Roasted | slart, ikonia - that's all I was curious about, was whether or not there'd be a speed difference... but then again, having images being in the front may help since thats where I pull images off the drive and push them through the network for pxe boot imaging. | 16:26 |
ikonia | Roasted: it won't matter, I promise | 16:26 |
Roasted | ikonia, I guess the fact Im on a 7200rpm drive now instead of 5400rpm would be there I would see any speed difference. | 16:27 |
sebsebseb | macman_: oh it's on Bestbuy, probably better to buy directly from Dell | 16:27 |
ikonia | Roasted: you wouldn't anyway | 16:27 |
Slart | Roasted: the speed difference is very very very small.. even if it would only take 60 seconds to switch them around I wouldn't do it.. it's not worth it | 16:27 |
Roasted | slart - good deal man. That's all I was curious about. | 16:27 |
Roasted | thanks slart, ikonia. | 16:27 |
Slart | Roasted: you're welcome | 16:27 |
ikonia | no problem | 16:27 |
sebsebseb | macman_: you want to buy pre installed Ubuntu | 16:27 |
sebsebseb | macman_: not anything with Windows on it first, to be sure it will work without any problems | 16:28 |

steffan | what is the safest way to remove the sample media such as the videos and sounds that come with an ubuntu installation? | 16:28 |
ikonia | steffan: delete them | 16:28 |
macman_ | sebsebseb: no .. i now how to install ubuntu fine | 16:28 |
steffan | ikonia: individually, or by using something like 'sudo apt-get --purge remove ubuntu-sounds' | 16:28 |
sebsebseb | macman_: right, but all your hardware might not just work, wireless for example | 16:28 |
ikonia | steffan: ahh, if they are in a package, removing the package is great | 16:29 |
steffan | ikonia: in other words, is there a way to just purge all the samples in one go? :) | 16:29 |
ikonia | steffan: open the package manager and remove all the sound themes | 16:29 |

steffan | Slart: that package is the one containing all of the sample content? | 16:30 |

underfire | ? | 16:44 |
=== enwiki is now known as juliancolton | ||
steffan | sillyCEO: clear the list apart from the one that you intentionally connected too, i'm assuming that this is caused by a previous failed connection which is now marking that network as one that you want to connect too | 16:44 |
Slart | underfire: first number is the year, second is the month of the release.. 10.04 is the next release.. due 2010, month 4 | 16:45 |
catphish | sillyCEO: run gconf-editor - its like window registry editor, look around for wifi network lists | 16:45 |
underfire | dell mini 10 | 16:45 |
sillyCEO | steffan: good idea, thanx- will try now. | 16:45 |

goose_ | what's the command to create a tarball from terminal? I want to tar a 3 GiB dir on my server so I can wget back it up onto my local machine | 16:46 |
=== MidnighToker is now known as M3ZYL | ||
steffan | goose_: tar -cf [name of tarball].tar [list of files or directories] | 16:46 |
catphish | scunizi: sebsebseb: yes - usb mass storage and SD cards have both stopped automounting into gnome on all user accounts, i know f-spot isnt related, but it stopped working around the time i removed it, and when i removed it, a lot of dependant packages were also removed | 16:46 |
steffan | goose_: and then to compress it with maximum compression use gzip -9 [file].tar | 16:47 |
catphish | sebsebseb: i can manually mount the devices no problem, its just that gnome isnt automounting them | 16:47 |
goose_ | steffan: tar -cf web_stuff.tar /home/goose/www | 16:47 |
goose_ | steffan: I need to compress it twice? | 16:47 |
ribot | hi | 16:47 |
underfire | i have another question is the next release will be in april | 16:47 |
underfire | of that year | 16:47 |
=== mr is now known as Guest91737 | ||
Slart | underfire: yes | 16:48 |
jpds | underfire: April, this year. | 16:48 |
sebsebseb | catphish: I thinkt here might be some sort of Karmic bug, if I remember correctly the release notes maybe mentions something | 16:48 |
Slart | !lucid | underfire | 16:48 |
sebsebseb | !notes | catphish | 16:48 |
ubottu | underfire: Lucid Lynx is the codename for Ubuntu 10.04, due April 2010 - Lucid is NOT released and is NOT stable - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 | 16:48 |
ribot | im trying to edit crontab, and my default editor is set to nano...yet when i run sudo crontab -e nano doesnt open | 16:48 |
ubottu | catphish: Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) release notes can be found here: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/910 | 16:48 |
catphish | thanks | 16:48 |
jpds | goose_, steffan: Or just do: tar cvzf [name].tar.gz dir/ directly | 16:48 |
steffan | goose_: a tarball is just a bunch of files inside one, who mentioned compressing it twice? | 16:48 |
ohir | goose_: tar -cf - /home/goose/www | gzip -9 > web_stuff.tar.gz | 16:48 |
jpds | ohir: See my suggestion. :) | 16:48 |
=== SuspectZero_ is now known as SuspectZero | ||
sebsebseb | catphish: then again your issue seems to of happended after using the install for a while. probably nothing useful in those notes, but they are good to look at anyway | 16:49 |
ohir | goose_: or tar -jcf web_stuff.tbz /home/goose/www | 16:49 |
goose_ | jpds: tar -cvzf webstuff.tar.gz /home/goose/www | 16:49 |
ohir | goose_: what uses bzip2 compression, about 20% smaller than gzip one | 16:49 |
goose_ | or do I need the dir to be /home/goose/www/ (trailing /) | 16:49 |
jpds | goose_: You can omit the - entirely. | 16:49 |
catphish | ribot: have you tried "select-editor" | 16:50 |
aropupu | hi ppl, i have a fresh install of karmic and i would need to do some stuff which requires me to kill x, but it seems that i haven't got any tty:s at all | 16:50 |

aropupu | jrib: that's not the issue, the missing tty's are | 16:51 |

sebsebseb | jtaji: I was going to do that, but if pat|nG he intalled Kubuntu, maybe woudn't work as well. I guess it works as long as both are installed Kubuntu and Ubuntu | 16:57 |

anthony | im new | 17:02 |
yadudoc | sebsebseb, I fixed the partition table using testdisk... now fdisk has no issues listing out the partitions either... so it must be something with gparted right ? | 17:02 |

bitplane2 | Hello, I think I have a bug to report, though I'm not sure about the details. How can I check to see if librsvg is compiled without "--with-svgz"? The reason is that .svgz files don't have thumbnails in nautilus, but if I rename a svg file to svgz it creates a thumbnail | 17:05 |

sebsebseb | joh6nn: what? | 17:10 |
sebsebseb | oh so this is a clean install hrm | 17:10 |
jrib | bitplane2: check gconf-editor, that's where thumbnail programs are defined for nautilus I believe. I'm guessing it just doesn't list svgz. You might want to check bugs.gnome.org and bugs.ubuntu.com too | 17:10 |
sebsebseb | useaully upgrades go well, just many people had issues jaunty to karmic | 17:11 |

devon | how are you all doing | 17:13 |
jorgerosa | Hello all | 17:13 |
devon | what is this | 17:13 |
sebsebseb | !ubuntu | devon | 17:14 |
ubottu | devon: Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com | 17:14 |
Roasted | slart, ikonia - still here? | 17:14 |
sebsebseb | devon: a channel for support with that | 17:14 |
Slart | Roasted: yup | 17:14 |
devon | ooh thankyou | 17:14 |
Roasted | slart - I think I might just nuke this install. I copied my home dir to a flash drive, mounted to fstab, and it is bombarding me with errors upon login | 17:14 |
sebsebseb | devon: np | 17:14 |
Roasted | slart - I got some errors with certain files copying (perm denied) and I didtn want to change the perms in case I screwed it up. so I just took what would copy. | 17:15 |
BenB | in the past, I have used the built-in VNC server in the Xorg server (enabled in xorg.conf: module "vnc", "usevnc" "on"). how do I do that in ubuntu 9.10, which doesn't have an xorg.conf | 17:15 |
joh6nn | sebsebseb: not sure i follow; what are you asking? | 17:15 |
Slart | Roasted: ouch.. never had that happen to me when I've done it.. but I never did it exactly that way | 17:15 |
sebsebseb | joh6nn: oh nothing important, it just seemed when I didn't high light you, I never got a reply to what I put | 17:15 |
jorgerosa | I´ve developed that free game: http://ffiles.com/flash/games/flaquiztv_2784.html?comments_to_show=500 | 17:16 |
jorgerosa | anyone knows how to make a deb file from .exe (projector) or from .swf file? | 17:16 |
jorgerosa | If it is possible, of course... the idea was to be firefox + flash independent (auto executable) | 17:16 |
Roasted | slart - well its no big deal. Im a big backup freak, so I have my images backed up. It'd probably be easier and more practical to start from ground up. | 17:16 |
bitplane2 | jrib, I can't find "svg" or "svgz" in gconf-editor | 17:16 |
BenB | jorgerosa: you can't, exe is a Windows application. | 17:16 |
bitplane2 | does that mean it's internal to nautilus? | 17:16 |
Roasted | slart - I kind of expected something to backfire. There was something about taking an existing partition and essentially splitting it in half that made me nervous in terms of its stability afterwards. | 17:16 |
jorgerosa | BenB: yep seems to be impossible this way... there is an FLA or flash editor to replace "FLASH PRO" in windows? | 17:17 |
joh6nn | sebsebseb: ah, ok. | 17:17 |
BenB | jorgerosa: and flash games are not particularly appreciated in Linux, because Flash is proprietary. if you want to hand it to Linux users nevertheless, give them the SWF file and tell them to run "flash yourfile.swf" or something. | 17:18 |
bitplane2 | jorgerosa, if it runs under gnash you could roll your own standalone app | 17:18 |

masingerz | hi im about to install ubuntu and i see "space unsusable" | 17:22 |
sebsebseb | masingerz: right, probably since there is no space at the moment for Ubuntu | 17:22 |
ribot | do you know how to set charset in webalizer? it looks weird | 17:23 |
jorgerosa | sebsebseb: so, the suggestion is to find out how to convert flash to a deb file in #flash chat?... | 17:23 |
bitplane2 | jrib, I can't be 100% sure that it's compiled with zlib.. I guess I could compile it myself and see what happens. I'll try that before reporting. Thanks again fo rthe support :) | 17:23 |
masingerz | how much space does ubuntu need? | 17:23 |
sebsebseb | jorgerosa: you can't just convert Flash into a Deb file | 17:23 |
jazz | hello all | 17:23 |
sebsebseb | jorgerosa: if you want to make a proper game for Ubuntu and other Linux distributions, OpenGL is the way to go | 17:23 |
masingerz | sebsebseb: i thought it was cause of the 4 primary partition limit | 17:23 |
xangua | masingerz: how much are you giving it¿¿ | 17:23 |
bitplane2 | masingerz, what will you use it for? I would say most people don't need more than 5GB, but if you're installing Windows games and all kinds of fun stuff then you may want loads more | 17:24 |
d0c | anyone here know if its possible to change the time the GNU GRUB bootloader displays the options... im building a HTPC and im trying to minimise boot time | 17:24 |
masingerz | 59 gigas | 17:24 |
d0c | ? | 17:24 |
Balsaq | anyone running ubuntu wireless | 17:24 |
desktop | hi all can someone help me create a launcher icon for a executable program | 17:24 |
jorgerosa | sebsebseb: yep, seems so. :( maybe i can convert this to python or so... I have little experience, but i'll try. :) | 17:24 |
ribot | d0c yes you can change it | 17:24 |
BenB | jorgerosa: you could try to make your next game based on Mozilla / Firefox. you have JavaScript, SVG, HTML, XML, JPG, OGG Theora there available. | 17:24 |
sebsebseb | jorgerosa: Flash is uhmm | 17:24 |
coolcat | what command can I use to print my ip address? | 17:25 |
desktop | balsaq , i am | 17:25 |
sebsebseb | jorgerosa: rather propritary and all that, you can't just convert it into a proper proggramming langauge such as Python | 17:25 |
BenB | coolcat: ifconfig | 17:25 |
jazz | i use a wireless usb to connect online | 17:25 |
d0c | im trying to google how to do it but i dont think im asking the right questions | 17:25 |
bitplane2 | d0c, yeah you can set the time in seconds... can't find it right now but your keywords are: grub boot menu | 17:25 |
ribot | d0c: sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst | 17:26 |
masingerz | i have sda 1, sda2 unusable sda3 sda4 | 17:26 |
BenB | coolcat: or /sbin/ifconfig | 17:26 |
jorgerosa | sebsebseb: oh!!! i remembered, there is also pyGame! i'll find out if it was what it takes... bbl. Thankyou all! | 17:26 |
d0c | thanks, will try that now | 17:26 |

priya | hi all can someone help me create a launcher for a executable program | 17:29 |
BenB | coolcat: inet addr natürlich | 17:29 |
IdleOne | jazz: good thank you | 17:29 |
jrib | priya: right click -> create launcher ? | 17:29 |
BenB | coolcat: inet addr, of course | 17:29 |

jrib | priya: so tell us what you did | 17:30 |
zagabar | ANyone knows why my mail service programs like squirrelmail and ability to connect with thunderbird to check my mail starts to fail when I add the following rule? sudo iptables -A POSTROUTING -t nat -j MASQUERADE | 17:30 |

IdleOne | !bug | bash39 | 17:30 |
crystalblue | when i try to connect to photobucket.com it shuts down my internet connection on karmic? | 17:30 |

IdleOne | bash39: #ubuntu-bugs maybe. not sure about that one | 17:30 |
sebsebseb | crystalblue: not sure about that, but if I remember correctly it's photobucket that don't support Linux properly anymore | 17:30 |
BenB | that's because your application quits immediately <priya> i have done all that i wont launch in terminal terminal shuts down right away | 17:30 |
crystalblue | ah ok | 17:31 |
crystalblue | thanks | 17:31 |
sebsebseb | crystalblue: well flickr and what not as alternatives | 17:31 |
XeroXer- | Does anyone know why ddcprobe gives edidfail in 64 bit (ubuntu 9.10), worked great on 32 bit. | 17:31 |
crystalblue | will do | 17:31 |
sebsebseb | crystalblue: also maybe it's just at the moment you can't get on photobucket, but later on you can | 17:31 |
jazz | oh and i have a question on gnome-do if any one can help? | 17:31 |
jrib | jazz: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line) | 17:32 |
crystalblue | i'll try again in a couple days then. | 17:32 |
crystalblue | it works on my mac, just not on my linux machine | 17:32 |
BenB | zagabar: please read "how to set up a firewall in linux" documents. you need much more than just one rule. | 17:32 |
jazz | ok | 17:32 |
sebsebseb | crystalblue: well that's a bit odd in a way | 17:32 |
KrisKo | hi, i've changed all fonts in appearance>fonts, but some apps like krusader are still using different font. Where can i set font for menu in krusader? | 17:32 |
sebsebseb | crystalblue: it should work on Linux as well, but photobucket might have done something so Linux users can't just go on it anymore | 17:32 |
xangua | jazz: i use do, but if i or all in the channel can't help you, you can try #gnome-do | 17:33 |
BenB | zagabar: there might also be an "easy firewall" package in ubuntu. | 17:33 |
Idlehead | KrisKo: you can change them with the qt config tools | 17:33 |
cbx333_ | s | 17:33 |
jazz | i had installed gnome do and docky - now i just have gnome-do | 17:33 |

sebsebseb | crystalblue: so that you can't go on webistes at all? | 17:34 |
IdleOne | Welcome bash39 | 17:34 |
Monotoko | editing the firefox headers...google it | 17:34 |
crystalblue | like if I am on my mac, and on my linux laptop, and I log on with my laptop, it kills my connection | 17:34 |
crystalblue | not if I visit that site | 17:34 |
Monotoko | its a decent addon | 17:34 |
jazz | the preferences give a docky look but not all the options i had before. | 17:34 |
mpegger | Hi .. in ubuntu there is any application that show active connections and bytes transfered like top for processes? | 17:34 |
sebsebseb | crystalblue: that's odd | 17:34 |
crystalblue | *nods* | 17:34 |
clonejo | jazz: docky and gnome-do are different applications | 17:34 |
KrisKo | Idlehead: do you mean qtconfig or qtconfig-qt4? There are fonts set to 8, but krusader is still using 10. | 17:34 |
BenB | in the past, I have used the built-in VNC server in the Xorg server (enabled in xorg.conf: module "vnc", "usevnc" "on"). how do I do that in ubuntu 9.10, which doesn't have an xorg.conf | 17:35 |
clocker | mpegger, you might check out lsof and options therein | 17:35 |
priya | i Right click on desktop go to Create Launcher browse to were my executable program is Type=Application in Terminal | 17:35 |
jazz | i thought so but i cannot find where to get docky? | 17:35 |
sebsebseb | clocker: here's an idea | 17:35 |
xangua | jazz: launch do> preferences> plugins | 17:35 |
sebsebseb | crystalblue: here's an idea little test, still got the Ubuntu Live CD? | 17:35 |
Idlehead | KrisKo: it depends on what version of qt is used by krusader. sometimes it works and sometimes. well. let's just say it doesn't. | 17:35 |
crystalblue | yea of course | 17:35 |
jazz | ok... | 17:36 |
grkblood | can you cat vob files together without causing issues with remuxing down the road? | 17:36 |
sebsebseb | crystalblue: ok so boot up the LIve CD, and go on photobucket and find out, if you get the problem or not with that as well | 17:36 |
erUSUL | mpegger: iftop | 17:36 |
crystalblue | thats a really good idea | 17:36 |
crystalblue | ok, will do | 17:36 |
Idlehead | KrisKo: that is why it is better to use gtk on gnome and qt on kde and don't mix stuff up | 17:36 |
sebsebseb | crystalblue: if not, maybe something has gone bad with your actsaul install, which might of happended, but not that likely | 17:36 |
crystalblue | brb, ill let you know | 17:36 |

ubottu | Ferriss: An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions | 17:53 |
Halitech | kellopes, if you open a terminal and run lspci does it see it there? | 17:53 |
Ferriss | sebsebseb: the 9.04 to 9.10 upgrade failure. It looks like some have solved it anyway. Ill try to fix it for a while before i reinstall | 17:53 |
Ferriss | <3 | 17:53 |
kellopes | i gotta go for lunch.. | 17:53 |
kellopes | i will be back later.. so i will ask for help again.. | 17:53 |
sebsebseb | Ferriss: oh right the 9.04 to 9.10 failure, I guess it was me then | 17:53 |
kellopes | thanks.. | 17:53 |
navin | Hey can anyone help me? | 17:53 |
Halitech | !help | navin | 17:53 |
ubottu | navin: 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. :-) | 17:53 |
sebsebseb | Ferriss: you just want data off it now, so this is ok really, but useauly best to be careful with this, gksudo nautilus | 17:54 |
d0c | ahh... i have to edit /etc/default/grub | 17:54 |
xguru | navin: You can video chat with empathy, or skype | 17:54 |
d0c | thanks zvacet | 17:54 |
sebsebseb | Ferriss: then you become sudo/root for the file manager, and can do pretty much whatever you want | 17:54 |
navin | I am unable to do that with empathy | 17:54 |
zvacet | d0c: np | 17:54 |
xguru | navin: what version of ubuntu and empathy | 17:54 |
Halitech | navin, do you have a working webcam? | 17:54 |
navin | xguru: Ubuntu 9.10 | 17:54 |
navin | yes. | 17:55 |
fae | Hey, everyone. I recently installed ubuntu on a laptop, and it was working fine, but now it is freezing and then turning off randomly. Anyone know why that might be? | 17:55 |
sebsebseb | Ferriss: just get the data and re install, it's not really worth trying to fix it this time | 17:55 |
Slart | fae: have you run the memtester? | 17:55 |
xguru | navin: so you have got images through your webcam while using 9.10? | 17:55 |
_march_ | hi | 17:55 |
navin | I am using my yahoo id to chat on empathy and the other person has connected his cam but I am unable to see his cam. | 17:55 |
ravi | how to run windows 7 from virtual manager ?? | 17:56 |
Ferriss | did i just whois myself? strange webclient, freenode. Is it too difficult, really? it looks like some people have fixed it ;\ | 17:56 |
_march_ | i have a problem: the machine has frozen while doing an upgrade and now many packages are left in the iU and iF state. how can i fix this up? | 17:56 |
Ferriss | in any case, i have nothing to do all day and would like to learn more about linux and its commands. haha. so ill waste my time a bit. Thank you for the advice, sir | 17:56 |
fae | No, but I will. I haven't had a chance to do anything with it yet. | 17:56 |
navin | xguru what should i do now? | 17:57 |
Slart | ravi: usually you create a vm, then mount the install cd in the virtual CD and start the machine.. the install goes through as on a normal machine | 17:57 |
sebsebseb | Ferriss: well 9.10 is really one that is best as a clean install in the first place, hence why I don't recommend spending time trying to fix your messed up upgrade | 17:57 |
zealiod | has any one written any expressions for urlsnarf | 17:57 |
xguru | navin: are you getting a black screen from his feed....or just never accepts? | 17:57 |
zvacet | _march_: sudo apt-get -f install or sudo dpkg --configure -a | 17:57 |
Ferriss | bah. | 17:57 |
navin | I am not even getting any option to view the cam | 17:57 |
_march_ | zvacet: it does not work because the unpacked files are corrupt | 17:57 |
_march_ | zvacet: so i had to instruct to fully reunpack, reinstall, and reconfigure every package that got hurt | 17:58 |
custodio | hola?? | 17:58 |
Host12345_ | custodio: #Ubuntu-es | 17:58 |
xguru | navin: Are you the only person they are having trouble video chatting with? | 17:58 |
navin | yes | 17:58 |
sebsebseb | Ferriss: most of them are fine to just upgrade to from the previous version, but 9.10 has at least two reasons why it's better to clean install really | 17:58 |
I^llGetOverIt | how to uninstall manually installed applicatons that does not appear in synaptic? | 17:58 |

dan__479 | ok i have a wifi prolem can someone pm me to help | 18:00 |
navin | okay | 18:00 |
scunizi | I^llGetOverIt: if they were .deb files originally they will show in synaptic.. if not then it may be tough to do depending on the program and if it contained an uninstaller.. | 18:00 |
_march_ | i cannot even google or anything because firefox also got corrupted | 18:00 |
Slart | ravi: I'm not sure if that's just a label or if it changes something about the actual machine.. try setting it to Microsoft Windows Vista | 18:01 |
_march_ | how can i instruct apt to reunpack a package? | 18:01 |
ravi | Slart: k let me try | 18:01 |
netbook-liveusb | Hi, I'm trying to create a liveusb to run fedora 12 on my netbook but I'm getting an error using the liveusb tool http://pastebin.com/m7da20f79 Any suggestions? | 18:02 |
zvacet | _march_ : you can try to reinstall packages in synaptic | 18:02 |
ravi | Slart: one more question | 18:02 |
Slart | ravi: sure | 18:02 |
I^llGetOverIt | scunizi, it is not .deb i installed with sudo python setup.py install but the application does not work, so I find it in dep package but can not install it because uf old installation there is a conflict | 18:02 |
Purpley | Hey guys I messed up my permissions for my sources.list file how do i change the permissions to allow ubuntu to update it and perodically check for updates without me having to type in a terminal sudo update-manager? | 18:02 |

sebsebseb | !caps | dan__479 | 18:03 |
ardchoille | Purpley: what is the output of this command: ls -lha /etc/apt/sources.list | 18:03 |
ubottu | dan__479: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. | 18:03 |
Purpley | dan__479, USING CAPS DOSENT HELP | 18:03 |
netbook-liveusb | ibuclaw, thanks! | 18:03 |
navin | Okay | 18:03 |
sebsebseb | !patience | dan__479 | 18:04 |

sebsebseb | dan__479: not really my area as I said, but I know this, first of all it helps to know whic card you have | 18:04 |
ardchoille | Purpley: sudo chmod a+r /etc/apt/sources.list | 18:04 |
_march_ | zvacet: it would tell me everything is corrupt, just as apt does | 18:04 |
ibuclaw | netbook-liveusb, also, I wouldn't really consider that an error log. There should be a liveusb-creator.log file somewhere. Perhaps in /var/log. | 18:04 |
dan__479 | its a realtek 8187b | 18:04 |
sebsebseb | dan__479: and even better what wireless chipset it uses | 18:04 |
netbook-liveusb | ibuclaw, its pasted at the bottom | 18:04 |
dan__479 | what is the chipset? | 18:05 |
zvacet | see you later | 18:05 |

Purpley | ardchoille, Thanks a bunch | 18:05 |
ardchoille | Purpley: you're welcome | 18:05 |
xangua | julio: is not what where'¿ | 18:05 |
Purpley | Also can someone tell me what these "proposed updates" are? | 18:05 |
dan__479 | or should i say how do i find that out | 18:05 |
wjt_ | 有会讲中文的吧 | 18:06 |
ardchoille | Purpley: As for auto-updating, I don't know.. I always do: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 18:06 |
jrib | Purpley: they're for people who want to test a proposed update (i.e. they may make your computer explode) | 18:06 |
ardchoille | !chinese | wjt_ | 18:06 |
ubottu | wjt_: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道: #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk | 18:06 |
ibuclaw | netbook-liveusb, oh, ok. =) | 18:06 |
netbook-liveusb | ibuclaw, :) | 18:06 |

jrib | Purpley: exactly | 18:06 |
julio | xangua, namoroka under apps--internet. I find it weird since it only downloaded a few Kb's of data to install 3.6... | 18:06 |
sebsebseb | dan__479: don't repeat every five minutes or so, try like 15 minutes from now | 18:07 |

Purpley | ardchoille, whats the difference between gksudo and sue gksudo? | 18:08 |
xguru | navin: supports.... msn/gtalk/xmpp/sip I personally use skype and msn | 18:08 |
ardchoille | !gksudo | Purpley | 18:08 |
ubottu | Purpley: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 18:08 |
xangua | (12:07:52) jazz: how can i get my Ubuntu to automatically to translate different languages? ¿¿ | 18:08 |
netbook-liveusb | ibuclaw, thanks it would seem likely...unetbootin seems to be hanging on 64% at the moment | 18:09 |

Purpley | Ok thanks | 18:09 |
Diverdude | Is it possible to enhance the "arrow-up completion" in the terminal, so that instead of cycling through all previous commands when i press arrow up, i can enter e.g. ev and then press arrow up, and then all previous commands other than those starting with ev are filtered away. This means I could much easier find my way back through previous commands i have entered. Is that possible? | 18:09 |
ibuclaw | netbook-liveusb, it will do that - as it is extracting the squashfs image | 18:09 |
jazz | if i type in say german does the os translate the language live ? | 18:09 |
navin | xguru do v have the option of video chat in skpye for other ids | 18:09 |
czeslaw | to jest mój pierwszy linukx | 18:10 |
ardchoille | Diverdude: you could try: history | grep ev | 18:10 |
netbook-liveusb | ibuclaw, ahh ok | 18:10 |
xguru | navin: not sure what your asking. .... But if you add someone to your skype list you can click on them and view their webcam | 18:10 |
Slart | jazz: nope.. there are some translation tools available but the end result isn't very good.. kind of like google translate | 18:10 |

Diverdude | VCoolio, thx | 18:11 |
jazz | just wondering about it. i have been trying to teach myself Japanese.....im still trying to look for docky 2 | 18:11 |
jazz | is there a ppa? | 18:11 |
navin | xguru I was asking in skype, you can only use the skpye id or any other id's like empathy. | 18:11 |
xangua | jazz: yes | 18:12 |
ardchoille | jazz: you can search for a PPA here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas | 18:12 |
xguru | navin: only skype id | 18:12 |
ibuclaw | netbook-liveusb, the squashfs is the entire filesystem packed up, if you weren't aware before hand... when you boot, it extracts it into memory via an immutable loopback mount. Then it is made mutable (yet volatile) because a series of Aufs file systems are overlayed ontop of it. | 18:12 |
navin | hmm | 18:12 |
scunizi | Diverdude: when you look at history and see what you want, if it's identical then you can enter !<number next to command> and it will repeat that commnad. | 18:12 |
daleharvey | ok, I am having problems setting up a cron job | 18:12 |
Random832 | Diverdude; you might also be interested in the ctrl-r command to search through history | 18:13 |
zmjdroid | Hey, so I have a radeon 9200, and I'm trying to get s-video working with karmic | 18:13 |
julio | xangua, it doesn't support 64 bit users :s | 18:13 |
daleharvey | my script runs fine from the shell, I copied the output of env into crontab -e and the script itself, so it has all the same env | 18:13 |
netbook-liveusb | ibuclaw, i've heard of the file but wasnt aware what it was exactly...cheers for the info | 18:13 |
zmjdroid | It currently works until X starts | 18:13 |
zmjdroid | Then it goes blank (on the tv) | 18:13 |
daleharvey | but I cant execute one script in /usr/local/bin | 18:13 |

scunizi | ctrl+alt+F7 | 18:14 |
Halitech | xsssx, ALT + F7 should bring you back | 18:14 |
VCoolio | daleharvey: use full paths and try with a line on top saying SHELL=/bin/bash | 18:14 |
zmjdroid | Xrandr detects s-video, but says it's disconnected | 18:14 |
xsssx | thx | 18:14 |
daleharvey | VCoolio, yeh the shebang is set, and it uses full paths to the executable | 18:15 |
zmjdroid | It works if I go into a tty | 18:15 |
daleharvey | whereis tarsnap and file /usr/local/bin/tarsnap both work as normal | 18:15 |
zmjdroid | So it's an x problem | 18:15 |
VCoolio | daleharvey: does the script need X or does it use relative paths? | 18:15 |

Slart | skoman: apt-get remove or apt-get purge | 18:24 |

skoman | no I have used ./configure and make to compile it form source | 18:24 |
jrib | !apt > skoman | 18:24 |
ubottu | skoman, please see my private message | 18:24 |
jrib | skoman: read the documentation then. Sometimes projects include an "uninstall" rule in the Makefile. But sometimes they don't | 18:25 |
scunizi | ravi: sorry I don't know what that is.. might be a qemu manager or something.. you might consider using virtual box, you can run it headless, from cli and it has a decent gui client to manage it. | 18:25 |
drew_ | quit | 18:25 |
skoman | if there is no uninstall rule | 18:25 |
Slart | skoman: sometimes you can use sudo make uninstall .. if the program author created that function | 18:25 |
skoman | then what shold i do? | 18:25 |
jrib | skoman: then delete it yourself... | 18:25 |
skoman | i 'm not a root | 18:25 |
Slart | skoman: go find all the files and delete them manually.. and promise yourself to not do the same mistake again | 18:26 |

skoman | so deltetion is ok | 18:26 |
Slart | !checkinstall | skoman | 18:26 |
ubottu | skoman: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled.

lifestream | Hi... is there a way to hide partitions from showing in the Places sidebar... using fstab? I tried 'ignore', but they still show! | 18:32 |
Slart | daleharvey: hmm.. let me play around with it a bit... | 18:32 |
pppoe_dude | purpley i don't think my iMac G3 supports booting from USB | 18:32 |
OerHeks | pppoe_dude live cd too big for a cd (canot be true )? or did you download the dvd ? | 18:32 |
Purpley | So whats the sudo command for programs outside of the terminal | 18:33 |
pppoe_dude | OerHeks, it is 705MB and when i try to burn it says it's too big even with overburn | 18:33 |
Jeruvy | pppoe_dude: which ones are you downloading? | 18:33 |
Purpley | pppoe_dude, Try to get blank DVD | 18:33 |
ribot | 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c) | 18:33 |
pppoe_dude | Jeruvy, i tried live ubuntu cd and live xubuntu cd | 18:33 |
OerHeks | pppoe_dude check mdsum | 18:33 |
scunizi | pppoe_dude: are you burning it as data? or as an iso? | 18:33 |
pppoe_dude | puremichael, i only have a cd drive on the imac | 18:33 |
pppoe_dude | scunizi, iso | 18:33 |
puremichael | ? | 18:33 |
Jeruvy | pppoe_dude: no, which ones. Do you have a link? The ones I am seeing should have no issues fitting on a CD | 18:33 |
sanguisdex | Purpley: sudo can't be run out side of the command | 18:33 |
pppoe_dude | Jeruvy, last one i tried was http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/9.10/release/ubuntu-9.10-desktop-powerpc.iso | 18:34 |
Purpley | nvm I was thinking of gksudo | 18:34 |
puremichael | pppoe_dude, i think it was not me you're talking to ? | 18:34 |
sanguisdex | I need to resize n extended partition, gparted won't do it. is there a better program? | 18:34 |
Purpley | sanguisdex, Why not? | 18:34 |
blakkheim | sanguisdex: what filesystem | 18:34 |
scunizi | pppoe_dude: just for the sake of arguement... I know you're trying to burn an iso.. however burning them isn't the same as using a normal burner and just putting the iso file on a cd.. the burner unpacks the image and burns the individual files | 18:35 |
Slart | daleharvey: it works if you run it from a regular terminal.. haven't tried putting it in a crontab yet | 18:35 |
pppoe_dude | scunizi, i am not a newbie | 18:35 |
sanguisdex | blakkheim: there is a swap and a ext3 mounted to home | 18:35 |
sanguisdex | in it | 18:35 |
ribot | scunizi: i suppose it is Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c) | 18:35 |
scunizi | pppoe_dude: ok.. you just never know on the other end.. carry on | 18:35 |
daleharvey | I know, thats the problem | 18:36 |
pppoe_dude | just seems that it is packaged to not fit on a 700mb cd, or maybe my particular brand of CDs doesn't allow for slightly more than 700 | 18:36 |
navin | if I have to do a video chat, what other options do I have? | 18:36 |

priya | hi all | 18:37 |
navin | Hey Priya | 18:37 |

ulb | ifI set i can then set kernel /grub.exe and it show [Linux-bzImage, setup=0x1e00, size=0x374c9] | 18:38 |
ulb | what to do from here? | 18:38 |
sanguisdex | Purpley: but when I need to orun aprogram as root is just run it from the command line (ie. sudo firefox) | 18:38 |
sanguisdex | blakkheim: any ideas? | 18:39 |
NativeAngels | can anyone tell me what this means ? -bash: ./sc_serv: No such file or directory | 18:39 |
guntbert | !gksudo | sanguisdex | 18:39 |
ubottu | sanguisdex: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 18:39 |
pppoe_dude | the alternate cd probably will burn because it's less than 700mb. but i wanted live . oh well | 18:39 |

zomfgcrazy | same hard disk as ubuntu install* | 18:40 |
scunizi | zomfgcrazy: nope | 18:40 |

Out_Cold | coolcat.. what is your computer plugged into for internet? | 20:07 |
coolcat | jMyles, I did not tried from any other computer, I do not have any | 20:07 |

AwesomeGuy | What happens when you try to do it? | 20:07 |

Flotonoc | It simply does nothing. | 20:08 |
AwesomeGuy | Yes, you | 20:08 |
AwesomeGuy | Hm | 20:08 |
AwesomeGuy | try /etc/init.d compiz -start | 20:08 |
AwesomeGuy | I think that init.d thing does things like that | 20:08 |
AwesomeGuy | but I really have no idea | 20:08 |
bigtom21485 | iceroot: yeah it still won't work any other ideas | 20:08 |
coolcat | jMyles, Out_Cold, I am just pointing firefox to the localhost and to 189.29.90.140 thats is what I am doing, 189.29.90.140 is the output of ifconfig for my ip address | 20:08 |

AwesomeGuy | nah, we're alright | 20:10 |
Cadet | im currently at the command line, when i started the system wanted me to log in using a blackscreen, then went to the command line, and when i typed in startx, the fatal error screen that came up was "no screens found", the details are here: error insterting nvidei (/lib/modules/2.6.13-14-generic/updates/dkms/nvida.ko), so wut do i do to fix this? | 20:10 |

Robyr | basically, its segfaulton lipango | 20:12 |
nvme | is there a way to print what refresh rates are supproted by your monitor ? | 20:12 |
Robyr | constantly | 20:12 |
coolcat | Out_Cold, I will wait, thank you | 20:12 |
Robyr | pidgin is a bad offender | 20:12 |
Out_Cold | payan, you can take control using 'alsamixer' from terminal | 20:12 |
Robyr | but firefox as well | 20:13 |

coolcat | jMyles, I just want to access my pc from other machines on the internet. I am running drupal here and want to add some colaborators . I do not want to pay a web hosting service... | 20:16 |
AwesomeGuy | Flotonoc's workspace manager stopped working when he tried to install a "cube thing" | 20:16 |
payan | Out_cold, alsamixer master makes no change, PCM changes volume to just 2 speakers. Is there a place to remap the channels or something? | 20:17 |
Flotonoc | LOL. | 20:17 |
coolcat | Out_Cold, there must be a firewall in the middle so? | 20:17 |
AwesomeGuy | And the Emerald Theme Manager | 20:17 |
AwesomeGuy | And compiz | 20:17 |
mblues | yay - for anyone curious, i fixed it (ubuntu hanging during partitioning) by booting livecd and deleting the partitions (that were already rendered unbootable) | 20:17 |
Out_Cold | payan, possibly ;) | 20:17 |
AwesomeGuy | apparently | 20:17 |

Robyr | does anyone have any ideas? | 20:23 |
coolcat | Out_Cold, I think it needs more arguments this is the output "iptables v1.4.4: option `-l' requires an argument" | 20:23 |
blakkheim | aguitel: compile it | 20:23 |
aguitel | blakkheim, only way ? | 20:23 |
clonejo | aguitel: you could use the mozilla-daily-ppa, but then you get updates every day | 20:23 |
blakkheim | aguitel: the best way | 20:23 |
Slart | coolcat, Out_Cold: try a capital L instead.. iptables -L | 20:24 |

ZykoticK9 | aguitel, i don't think the PPA is working for firefox-3.6 ! only way i got it working was download the tar ball from mozilla site save it somwhere in you home directory and create a menu shortcut to the executable | 20:27 |
Out_Cold | coolcat, well there is no rules blocking or allowing, so ideally it should work. but you could for ease install firestarter firewall from synaptics to allow for port 80 | 20:27 |
aguitel | clonejo, in ppa there is firefox 3.6.1 pre | 20:27 |

Robyr | what are the rules here? i mean, I dont want to sound like an arse, but this libpango thing seems to bee a pretty big deal | 20:28 |
Robyr | ive tried all the upcoming and unsupported updates to fix it, and nothing is helping | 20:29 |
Callum_ | >_> I have a script that I need to use to append certain things to configuration files, and it requires elevated privileges, so I just configured it to use sudo, but even still I just get permission denied errors... | 20:29 |

Slart | Callum_: you know that if you write things like sudo somecommand > somefile only the command is run as root.. not the redirection bit.. ie you can't add a line to a file owned by root in that way | 20:31 |
ZykoticK9 | Callum_, just FYI you can't use a regular append ">>" with sudo, research "tee" | 20:31 |
coolcat | Out_Cold, *set up instructions | 20:31 |

TomT | Hi. I just installed a headless Ubuntu server. I can ssh into it and admin from shell just fine. I'd like to use remote X11 for a couple of things. E.g., I installed Open-Xchange server, and would like to use its GUI admin stuff -- but on my desktop Ubuntu box over the LAN. | 20:54 |
TomT | What's the "minimum" X11-related install for the server that I need? I don't think it has to be KDE/GNOME. I'm not even sure it has to be a DesktopEvirment at all ... just don't know. | 20:54 |

rmn | how can i create a launcher in the menu for a program in a terminal? | 20:56 |
funkyHat | Otacon22: you need to be running a realtime kernel. The package linux-rt provides one. I'm not sure if it also provides PAE though, so you may be stuck there | 20:57 |
funkyHat | Otacon22: how much ram do you have? | 20:57 |

funkyHat | Squeese: pkill | 20:57 |
Squeese | cool, thx | 20:57 |
Slart | rmn: it will run it in a gnome-terminal window which will close when you close the app | 20:57 |
guntbert | rmn: edit the menu, "add" an entry - in the "command" box enter the app (best with full path), you can "browse" it too | 20:57 |

rmn | Slart, from alt+f2, or the launcher? | 21:02 |
funkyHat | Otacon22: I'm using the amd64 version, the only thing I've had trouble with so far is getting either fst or the other win32 vst compatibility layer (the name of which escapes me) to compile, though admittedly I've not tried a huge number of things. I have no issues with flash though for instance, just installed the flashplugin-installer package | 21:02 |
Slart | rmn: well.. try alt+f2 first.. if that works you can try the launcher | 21:02 |
funkyHat | Otacon22: But I'll leave that up to you, if you're happy with non-realitme jack then fine ⡈). Are you having any more luck with the other apps now? | 21:03 |

Windopain | what type of scripting is used in /boot/grub? I like the formatting of the if statements: if...fi looks clean. | 21:46 |
trism | Windopain: it will not mess anything up if you edit it (although it is read-only by default so you would need to chmod it), the only problem is, any kernel/grub update will wipe out your changes, so unless you want to change it every time, I wouldn't mess with it | 21:46 |

dopple | funkyHat yeah its a pain in the butt too | 21:48 |
funkyHat | *link in the PM | 21:48 |
ron__ | Is there a boot log? | 21:48 |
trism | jibadeeha: if there are any entries you really want to manually edit, copy them to /etc/grub.d/40_custom , then you can edit them all you want (this really only works well with the entries found by the os_prober, so you should probably disable that if you want to mess with them) | 21:48 |
funkyHat | dopple: well depending on what you want Windows for, could you use a VM instead of a full installation? | 21:48 |
Windopain | how can i enable the 'present all' screen effect in ubuntu where all windows are shown when the mouse is moved to a certain corner? | 21:49 |
dopple | funkyHat: not with 512MB ram i cant VM it :( | 21:49 |
dopple | i only need it for one game | 21:49 |
dopple | that wine wont render the colors correctly | 21:49 |
funkyHat | dopple: ah, not likely to work for games at any rate | 21:49 |
|NiNE| | hey guys ! I got this nasty problem with my graphics card driver, i cant seem to install it, tried out all the tutorials possible, did anyone have any success in installing ATI Radeon x1300 driver on Ubuntu 9.10 karmic ? | 21:49 |
twisted_ | hi all. i would like to know how to edit the font for icons | 21:49 |
dopple | funkyHat well the game is not resource intensive.. back in the day it used to run on a 486 lol | 21:50 |
dopple | but virtualizing with only 512mb ram is just not feasible | 21:50 |
funkyHat | dopple: might be worth a try at least ⡈) | 21:50 |
jibadeeha | thanks trism, you've just solved a problem i have had for the past 6 months where i need to pass a certain kernel parameter but ubuntu overwrites grub.cfg on updates ... i think editing 40_custom will fix that, going to give it a try | 21:50 |
trism | jibadeeha: hope it works for you | 21:51 |
dopple | funkyHat tried.. slows the system down beyond ability to run | 21:51 |
funkyHat | ⢁( | 21:51 |
CAPcap | I have what i think is a 3D support problem. When I try to run blender and similar 3D rendering programs they dont load they close instantly with a Segmentation fault. My graphics card is an ATI Mobility 9000 and my drivers are whatever auto installed when i installed ubuntu | 21:51 |
twisted_ | dopple = cant u use Wine to run your game? | 21:51 |
funkyHat | dopple: well, looks like resizing is your only option. Unless you have a spare hard drive lying around | 21:51 |
dopple | twisted_ it doesnt want to render colors correctly | 21:51 |
dopple | funkyHat yeah but how would i put another hd in a lap | 21:51 |
NSsmiles | help! | 21:52 |
funkyHat | dopple: ah ⡈). Well, looks like you'll be resizing then | 21:52 |
trism | jibadeeha: if you want to add a kernel parameter to all the ubuntu kernels though, you can append it to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" in /etc/default/grub | 21:52 |

twisted_ | hi all. i would like to know how to edit the font for icons | 21:52 |
funkyHat | dopple: beware that although there are usually no problems, resizing can sometimes cause data loss, so you should make backups | 21:52 |
funkyHat | dopple: of course you should make backups _anyway_, but still | 21:53 |
dopple | funkyHat nothing important to lose.. i only got this lappy a few days ago | 21:53 |

jibadeeha | trism, that is perfect .. just what i am after | 21:53 |
funkyHat | dopple: fair enough | 21:53 |
soreau | I see on packages.ubuntu.com there is dapper then it skips to hardy. Does this mean edgy, feisty and gutsy repos do not work anymore? ie. if I botted a live cd of any of those three and tried to download a package | 21:53 |
jpds | soreau: They're not supported anymore. | 21:53 |
dopple | so maybe the easier way would be to wipe the drive, install windows and then install ubuntu.. seems to be a simpler process | 21:53 |
jibadeeha | trism, thanks | 21:53 |
funkyHat | dopple: in that case you would have a slightly easier time of it if you started from scratch with your windows install, then put Ubuntu on second | 21:53 |
Slart | !edgy | 21:53 |
soreau | jpds: I know that, but do the repos still exist? | 21:53 |

DemoOn | Oasa: gentoo... | 22:19 |
Oasa | yes dopple | 22:19 |
CAPcap | yes dopple | 22:20 |
CAPcap | aw you beat me to it Oasa | 22:20 |
dopple | so thats not a dualboot | 22:20 |
wish^ | why does my wlan keep asking for wpa key when i wanna transfer something? | 22:20 |
wish^ | why does my wlan keep asking for wpa key when i wanna transfer something? | 22:20 |
Dr_Willis | dopple: No. it just installs under windows in a single file.. but you would be better off doing a normal dual boot setup. | 22:20 |
Oasa | Demoon try #gentoo | 22:20 |
magn3ts | So there is a bug in the current version of isight-firmware-tools. It is apparently fixed in Lucid Lynx. Is there a way that I can get this package in Karmic? Im quite desperate. | 22:20 |
CAPcap | no dopple it runs it like a program | 22:20 |
DemoOn | Oasa: i tried | 22:20 |
Oasa | If ubuntu is working fine i cant help. | 22:20 |
CAPcap | DANG ALL YOU people type faster than me | 22:20 |
DemoOn | Oasa: they dont know much about grub2 | 22:20 |
dopple | ok no i dont want that...obviously i cant run 2 OS's simultaneous i dont have the ram for that | 22:20 |
Oasa | Among the distro listed #gentoo is listed ? | 22:20 |
CAPcap | I have what i think is a 3D support problem. When I try to run blender and similar 3D rendering programs they dont load they close instantly with a Segmentation fault. My graphics card is an ATI Mobility 9000 and my drivers are whatever auto installed when i installed ubuntu | 22:21 |
Oasa | sorry about the # , gentoo is listed in the available os ? | 22:21 |

ikonia | bob_: you can't diagnose like that, what happened ? did you upgrade firefox ? | 22:22 |
Alvaro | need this help | 22:22 |
DemoOn | Oasa: when im choosing gentoo it says u need to load kernel first, so i think its somethiong with grub | 22:22 |
CAPcap | ikonia that sucks so hard. the firegl / radeon proprietary driver starts basically with the model card right after mine T_T | 22:23 |
bob_ | I did not upgrade firefox past the current level in canonical | 22:23 |
Oasa | Grub can ofcourse load the kernel directly. | 22:23 |
Darks7ar | Hello | 22:23 |
ikonia | bob_: has this ever work, or did something happen before it stopped working ? | 22:23 |
Oasa | Demoon : THe fact that i am using 8.04 LTS (GRUB) makes me quite ignorant about grub 2 | 22:23 |
Dr_Willis | bob_: thats flash player crashing.. sometimes it happens... | 22:23 |
Darks7ar | I have a downclocking problem i think | 22:23 |
DemoOn | Oasa: :( | 22:23 |
Oasa | Demoon : http://www.linuxselfhelp.com/gnu/grub/html_chapter/grub_4.html | 22:23 |
Darks7ar | can u help | 22:24 |
ikonia | Darks7ar: downclocking ? | 22:24 |
DemoOn | Oasa: ok, ill check | 22:24 |
Oasa | You can load kernel directly =D | 22:24 |
bob_ | ikonia: Flash comes and goes. | 22:24 |
Trek | Darks7ar: what's down clocking? never heard of it | 22:24 |
rizitis | I have a small problem with my new istallation, the picture at my crt is not at the center , I am loozing 1cm from the left and half cm from the top. any ideas? ---> http://pastebin.com/d37eea086 | 22:24 |
bob_ | Dr_Willis, thanks. SHould flash cause an entire system crash though? | 22:24 |
gsteinert | hey, im having sudo trouble. any time itry to use sudo, it prompts for the password, then locks up after I have entered it. the same thing happens when i try to log in to a tty (using my own account or root) and when i try to use su. also, sometimes I can Ctrl-C out of it, sometimes i have to close the terminal window. and the problem is fixed on restart | 22:24 |
ikonia | bob_: it may be worth checking the memory on your machine with memtest, unstable memory can cause application segfaults on occasion, but that is a random suggestion | 22:24 |
Darks7ar | well i don't know if thats the exact statement but my pc runc better after a game for example was running | 22:25 |
bob_ | ikonia: thanks, I'll run memtest on it tonight | 22:25 |
Darks7ar | then after short period of time the pc just becomes slower | 22:25 |
ikonia | bob_: it's a bit random, so sorry, but so many people have bad ram and don't know it, it's worth checking | 22:25 |
Darks7ar | its faster even if the game is running | 22:25 |
Trek | Darks7ar: you sure that nothing's stealing your CPU's resources? | 22:25 |
Darks7ar | yep | 22:26 |
DemoOn | CAN someone pastebin its /boot/grub/grub.cfg who has boot on seperate partition and has grub2?? | 22:26 |
Windopain | maybe i need to use kde in order to have certain things happen at the corners of the screens? to me this is one of the main usability differences between win&ubuntu and i can't figure out how to get it to work | 22:26 |
ikonia | DemoOn: why ? what's your problem ? | 22:26 |
Trek | Darks7ar, what makes you think its getting slower? | 22:26 |
DemoOn | ikonia: do u have /boot on sep[erated partition? | 22:26 |
Darks7ar | most PCs have that option in the bios | 22:26 |
ikonia | DemoOn: yes, | 22:26 |
DemoOn | ikonia: cant load kernel | 22:26 |
Darks7ar | Trek: everything is working faster | 22:26 |
DemoOn | ikonia: please pastebin your grub.cfg | 22:26 |
ikonia | DemoOn: ok - so what's the error | 22:27 |
ikonia | DemoOn: no, what's the error | 22:27 |
Darks7ar | and the difference is definately noticable | 22:27 |
DemoOn | ikonia: error:you need to load the kernel first | 22:27 |
Trek | Darks7ar: everything's working faster when you're using your resources more? | 22:27 |
Slart | Darks7ar: have you looked at cpu frequency scaling? ie power saving features? | 22:27 |
ikonia | DemoOn: show me your config | 22:27 |
Trek | Darks7ar: you can just tell your CPUs to run at full speed if you want | 22:27 |
bob_ | ikonia, thanks. bye | 22:27 |
Darks7ar | i cant | 22:27 |
DemoOn | ikonia: http://pastebin.com/m780cd541 | 22:27 |
Trek | Darks7ar: i set that on my desktop box because it won't run Flash unless its at full speed | 22:28 |

=== eggshells is now known as brlka | ||
DemoOn | ikonia: i need that for gentoo | 22:28 |
Darks7ar | yes | 22:28 |
Trek | Darks7ar: there's an applet for CPU Frequency scaling. It works, trust me. | 22:28 |
CAPcap | ikonia is there any alternative to the default drivers aside from the actual drivers from ATI? | 22:28 |
Gateway | hello everybody | 22:28 |
Oasa | Demoon : I know nothing about gentoo. But correct me if i am wrong. Are you trying to load kernel manually using grub. I wonder if gentoo cant load kernel by its own :S ? | 22:28 |
detrate | is gnome-shell stable enough to use? | 22:28 |
vanoc | Gateway, hi | 22:28 |
ikonia | CAPcap: the rubbish free opensource ones | 22:29 |
detrate | and does it work with compiz? | 22:29 |
Trek | Darks7ar: right click your menu bar at the top (in GNOME if thats what you use), and add a new thing to that panel | 22:29 |
Gateway | I would like lunch a program via ssh ? | 22:29 |
Gateway | how can I do that ? | 22:29 |
Trek | Darks7ar: look through the list of things for CPU Frequency Scaling | 22:29 |
Trek | Darks7ar: add it | 22:29 |
CAPcap | ikonia could they solve my problem? | 22:29 |
ikonia | DemoOn: you need to specify (hd,0)/kernel-gen-blah and the same for init | 22:29 |
edeca | Gateway: The same way you would if it was from a terminal | 22:29 |
ikonia | CAPcap: doubtful | 22:29 |
Darks7ar | i know that in older versions of kernel there was a module calle acpi_someting but its not present in the newer kernels and without that module that applet doesnt work | 22:29 |
Thwapp | hello all | 22:29 |
DemoOn | Oasa: im trying to set path to gentoo kernel in grub.cfg | 22:29 |
Trek | Darks7ar: use it to set your frequency scaling to "Performance" | 22:29 |
palomer | I just bought an ipod nano 5g, how do I get it to work? | 22:29 |
CAPcap | ikonia could they cause more? | 22:29 |
Trek | Darks7ar: I do this on my desktop | 22:29 |
dopple | gentoo is awesome cause you can customize the system to EXACTLY what you need.. but it sucks in that the installation process can take HOURS | 22:29 |
ikonia | CAPcap: don't know, they could | 22:29 |
Oasa | dopple : can you explicate ? | 22:30 |
Trek | palomer, you tried using Banshee? | 22:30 |
DemoOn | ikonia: so if gentoo kernel is on sda1 what should be there? | 22:30 |
dopple | Oasa: eh? | 22:30 |
Trek | palomer, you tried using Banshee Media player? | 22:30 |
netAction | I googled hours without any result. Can anyone tell me where empathy saves the history/logfiles? | 22:30 |
Darks7ar | Trek: ou will not be able to modify the frequency of your machine. Your machine may be misconfigured or not have hardware support for CPU frequency scaling. | 22:30 |
Oasa | a direct comparsion with ubuntu ? | 22:30 |
palomer | lemme try banshee... | 22:30 |
Gateway_ | sorry guys | 22:30 |
ikonia | DemoOn: that depends on what grub order your disks are in, eg: (hd0) should be sda if it's default, so (hd0,0)/boot/grub/gen-kernel-etc | 22:30 |
Oasa | netAction : check in var/ | 22:30 |
netAction | ok | 22:30 |
Trek | Darks7ar, then this is an issue with your system, most likely hardware | 22:30 |
CAPcap | ikonia thanks. i guess i'll just have to deal | 22:30 |
Trek | Darks7ar, how old's your machine? | 22:31 |
ikonia | CAPcap: time to open the wallet, sorry | 22:31 |
Trek | Darks7ar, who made it, model numbers, etc.? | 22:31 |
dopple | Oasa: gentoo - much more customized to your exact hardware, you compile EVERYTHING on your system, instead of ubuntu using binary packages... | 22:31 |
Darks7ar | brand new acer extensa | 22:31 |
DemoOn | ikonia: its on first partition | 22:31 |
CAPcap | ikonia i would if u had anything in it | 22:31 |
dopple | but ubuntu was WAY simpler to get up and running | 22:31 |
ikonia | DemoOn: please don't talk nonsense, there is nothing custom about it | 22:31 |
Darks7ar | intel pentium dual core processor | 22:31 |
Darks7ar | :S | 22:31 |
ikonia | DemoOn: (hd0,0) would be my guess, check your grub config | 22:31 |
DemoOn | ikonia: ive tried 0,0 it didnt help | 22:31 |
Gateway_ | so guys, how can I lunch a program via ssh ? | 22:32 |
ikonia | DemoOn: sorry - that nonsense comment wasn't for you | 22:32 |
Slart | Darks7ar: look in synaptic.. search for "frequency scaling" or powernow.. you can try installing one of those packages | 22:32 |
Gateway_ | graphicly | 22:32 |
ikonia | DemoOn: check your grub config then to see what disks are what | 22:32 |
ikonia | Gateway_: ssh in, type the programs name, check out ssh -X and X11Forwarding | 22:32 |
dopple | weird.. sudo: grub: command not found | 22:32 |
Darks7ar | none of them is working for me | 22:32 |
Slart | Darks7ar: there's also cpufrequtils | 22:32 |
Darks7ar | Slart: neither it is | 22:32 |
ikonia | DemoOn: your grub entry says gentoo is on /dev/sda3 | 22:33 |
DemoOn | ikonia: http://pastebin.com/m5b3f492e | 22:33 |
Slart | Darks7ar: hmm.. then I don't really know what to try.. it's a brand new laptop? brand new model as well? | 22:33 |
Gateway_ | ikonia: so I understand... sudo ssh in, gparted, check out ssh -X and X11Forwarding | 22:33 |
ikonia | DemoOn: that's nothing like what I said | 22:33 |
Oasa | yeah its on sda3 | 22:33 |
DemoOn | ikonia: gentoo is on sda3, boot is on sda1 | 22:33 |
Trek | Slart Darks7ar: I don't think its super new, as its using a Pentium, unfortunately | 22:33 |
nagle | Slart: http://imagebin.org/81683 | 22:33 |

Slart | hullo: try "watch ls" | 22:36 |
Oasa | hullo : watch ls <dir> | 22:37 |
arand | netAction: I would assume irc logs would be stored in the home dir... | 22:37 |
ikonia | DemoOn: no - look at the line that begins with kernel, you need to tell it where /boot is - so (hd0,0)/boot/kernel-genkernel-blah | 22:37 |
Darks7ar | Slart: and do u know of some software to ran mac apps under linux | 22:37 |
Slart | nagle: just me talking to myself =) .. I have no idea how wubi does it's thing or if it's even possible to remove the windows partition that you used for the wubi install | 22:37 |

jeffreyf | rizitis, you may need to manually center then resize the image to fit. This has been typical of CRTs as long as I can remember (almost 23 years now). Typically, this happens when you change resolution and/or monitor frequency. | 22:46 |

EastDallas | nagle: from what i can tell with my experience wubi creates a file and allows ubuntu to use that file as it's partition. It's not a virtual environment under windows. To the user it's just like any other dual boot. You can move your virtual partition to a real partition if you decide to later on using lvpm. | 22:46 |

gsteinert | ikonia: i changed the root password not long after i installed kubuntu (sometime around this time last year i think) these problems have only presented in the last couple of weeks, and i use sudo a LOT =P | 22:48 |
Esya | Does someone have a link to a good tutorial about setting up a smtp/imap server? | 22:48 |
nagle | EastDallas: Can I do that within Ubuntu? My problem is my Windows boot got a virus and I can no longer boot into it. | 22:48 |
Dr_Willis | chreekat: in 9.10 - the gnome keyboard settings has Options to switch those I think. Perhaps thats the better way to set the setting. | 22:49 |
ikonia | Esya: ton's on help.ubuntu.com | 22:49 |
DemoOn | ikonia: tnx, that worked :) | 22:49 |
Esya | ikonia: Hmmm I'm gonna check this out right now | 22:49 |
EastDallas | nagle: can you move to a real partition under ubuntu? Yes, install lvpm from repositories. | 22:49 |
ikonia | DemoOn: mega, well done | 22:49 |
ikonia | DemoOn: make sure you also set your initrd line the same | 22:49 |
jeffreyf | rizitis, no problem...in my experience you need to adjust the monitor. If the monitor has no adjustment, it may be time to upgrade...sorry | 22:49 |
