| younes | Hi, Why do I have the feeling that what I execute in a ssh session is started locally? When I run firefox in a ssh session, all my bookmarks, frontpage, language etc are local.. that in particular doesnt feel very remote to me | 00:02 |
| jazz_ | so can pulse audio be removed or will i lose audio all together, | 00:02 |
| Ferris- | Last time i upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10, my install broke. Will i be okay to overwrite that config file? | 00:02 |
| PlasmaSheep | Ferris-: one line please | 00:02 |

| saviorfromthenor | i mean the old athlon | 00:04 |
| maggs | nevermind, may have what i was looking for | 00:04 |
| saviorfromthenor | i tried it, it doesnt work | 00:05 |
| mneptok | koshari: which is why i asked if files >4GB are used before recommending FAT32 | 00:05 |
| Ferris- | ill just go for it. ha. | 00:05 |
| koshari | saviorfromthenor the very first athlon, (the 500mhz slot a) one will work fine with x86 32bit ubuntu | 00:05 |
| d_ed | saviorfromthenor: "it doesn't work" isnt' very specific | 00:05 |
| jazz_ | how all of a sudden will something break? i mean i did a fresh install the night before userday up till then i had no problem | 00:05 |
| d_ed | at what point doesn't it work | 00:05 |
| Ferris- | if it doesnt work ill download the latest ubuntu overnight | 00:05 |
| koshari | mneptok theres nothing wrong with ntfs support these days | 00:05 |
| saviorfromthenor | hehe sorry to be a newbie | 00:05 |
| d_ed | also make sure you're installing the 32bit ubuntu on it, not 64bit | 00:05 |
| jazz_ | thanks for link losha, what is KDE like? | 00:05 |
| Andorin | Okay, so, I had this problem not long ago, and I can't remember what I did to solve it... I removed Emerald to go back to metacity, and now when I log in, my Visual Effects are set from Normal to None, which of course disables compositing. I think it was a permissions thing. | 00:06 |
| mneptok | koshari: unless you ever want to mount a partition under OSX or some other OS with no NTFS support | 00:06 |
| gizmobay | I have two computers. Both have apt-file installed. It works on one but not the other | 00:06 |
| saviorfromthenor | i think does not detect the livecd | 00:06 |

| gizmobay | Any ideas of where I'm going wrong | 00:06 |
| gizmobay | sudo apt-file update | 00:06 |
| Losha | jazz_: I'm sorry, I don't understand the question. KDE is like gnome, only....different.... | 00:06 |
| d_ed | check all your bios settings - tell it to boot from CD, not the HDs | 00:06 |
| koshari | mneptok well weather ntfs can be mounted on osx is hardly withing the scope of this forum | 00:06 |
| gizmobay | apt-file search nividia | 00:07 |

| Losha | koshari: 'nothing wrong with ntfs support' is a little bit of an overstatement. It works ok, but if you ever get a corruption, you'll need a windows system to run a proper chkdsk, so not all issues can be recovered from.... | 00:08 |

| koshari | saviorfromthenor ok that should be suffient, you can also try a usb key | 00:10 |

| Losha | koshari: I would have to describe ntfs as ok for casual use, but not production quality. | 00:11 |

| ubottu | camps: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 01:10 |
| jgrocha | the "best" does not exist... | 01:10 |
| lolufail | camps: yeah amarok is the best ;) | 01:11 |
| lolufail | hehe | 01:11 |
| zetheroo | camps: amarok is great ... although its a KDE app ... I like Banshee, Songbird, Exaile | 01:11 |
| lolufail | though xmms is the "best" winamp clone, imo | 01:11 |
| SuspectZero | hey there, i'll be very honest im currently running gentoo and i installed xsplash, but it actually runs after gdm, is that normal? or is xsplash suppose to load up as soon as my pc boots? | 01:11 |
| kinja-sheep | Too many same IPs. :( | 01:11 |
| zetheroo | here they come!!! | 01:11 |

| SuspectZero | psycho_oreos, i'll be very honest im currently running gentoo and i installed xsplash, but it actually runs after gdm, is that normal? or is xsplash suppose to load up as soon as my pc boots? | 01:12 |

| Krolljg | hey guys sorry im new to ubuntu and i need some mega help. Right i was installing ubuntu 9.10 to my ext hardrive but at the end of the installation i forgot to specify that grub needed to go onto the hardrive. Now whenever i boot it goes into grub recovery mode and i cannot boot vista! Please help, thank you. | 01:13 |

| zetheroo | SuspectZero: gentoo? | 01:13 |
| Siria_Calv | Can somebody please a virtual machine for linux that can run Windows? It must not require a genuine windows os install cd to run windows programs. It has to be able to run windows programs without a genuine windows os. DO NOT TELL ME TO USE WINE! I am asking because wine isn´t wanting to run Genesis2D properly. The version of wine I have is the latest developmental version from winehq downloaded by the package repository listed on t | 01:13 |
| Siria_Calv | heir site for Ubuntu 9.10 | 01:13 |
| SuspectZero | psycho_oreos, im not askig for gentoo help. im just wonderin if thts how xsplash is SUPPOSE to work? | 01:13 |
| PeterT | !help | cyber_guy | 01:13 |
| ubottu | cyber_guy: 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. :-) | 01:13 |
| Siria_Calv | oops, *please suggest a virtual...* | 01:13 |
| SuspectZero | from my understanding its a bootsplash loader | 01:14 |
| psycho_oreos | SuspectZero, dunno, never tried xsplash personally :) | 01:14 |
| kinja-sheep | SuspectZero: iirc -- xsplash will disappear when everything after GDM is done loading (supposedly to reduce graphic loads slightly). | 01:14 |
| zetheroo | Krolljg: you installed Ubuntu onto an external hdd? | 01:14 |
| SuspectZero | kinja-sheep, isnt it suppose to start as soon as my pc turns on? | 01:14 |
| SuspectZero | because right now it turns on when i log in using gdm | 01:14 |
| kinja-sheep | SuspectZero: You're thinking usplash. | 01:14 |
| SuspectZero | balls! | 01:14 |
| sivel | Siria_Calv: you could look at crossover office, but it is built on top of wine, only other suggestion is a virtual windows machine, aka virtualbox + windows | 01:14 |
| FloodBot1 | NOTICE - If you couldn't speak to the channel during the past minutes, please try again now. | 01:15 |
| the_cyber_guy | ehternet is not working, it shows disconnect. but is working fine on windows | 01:15 |
| SuspectZero | does usplash have pretty boots like xsplash? | 01:15 |
| Krolljg | zetheroo: yes but i at the last stage of installation i forgot to go into advance a put grub on the external hardrive | 01:15 |
| the_cyber_guy | i have realtek 8139 | 01:15 |
| kinja-sheep | SuspectZero: By eliminating scrolls, but I think it is moot to have both installed so I don't have them installed. | 01:15 |
| camps | i have ubuntu 9.10 for amd64. Everything seems fully installed and configured hardware-wise. Do i have to locate drivers at all? | 01:15 |
| PeterT | why do we need 4 flood bots? | 01:15 |
| the_cyber_guy | with 8139too driver installed | 01:16 |
| Dr_Willis | camps: for video and wireless - perhaps.. depens on the hardware | 01:16 |
| Siria_Calv | sivel, I have tried crossover. It uses what it calls ´bottles´ to manage running windows programs. The demo has no default bottle and won´t let me create a bottle. So has to be something else. | 01:16 |
| zetheroo | Krolljg: sorry mate ... I have never done that and I dunno why I would ever do that .. | 01:16 |
| Krolljg | you wouldnt thats the problem i need to fix it | 01:16 |
| Siria_Calv | sivel: Crossover also requires its bottles to run windows programs | 01:16 |
| jazz_ | mu system> preferences> sound = not the same as the pic in the link- i have sound effects hardware input, output aplications | 01:16 |
| camps | but ubuntu does find all the drivers automatically during installation by downloading them online? | 01:16 |
| === ozzloy_ is now known as ozzloy | ||
| SuspectZero | kinja-sheep, well i saw alot of videos regarding a boot splash that runs on top of X which are in HD and everything and look sexy, i thought thats wht xsplash was but i guess not. what package allows that | 01:16 |
| sivel | Siria_Calv: correct, but other than wine and apps that utilize wine, I don't think you are going to find anything else | 01:17 |
| Dr_Willis | camps: most will be included. theres restricted drivers that might need a download. | 01:17 |
| zetheroo | Krolljg: me fixing it would be formating the external drive and installing Ubuntu on an internat HDD | 01:17 |
| sivel | Siria_Calv: I bought crossover, never used the demo | 01:17 |
| zetheroo | Krolljg: *internal | 01:17 |
| Dr_Willis | camps: set those up after install. | 01:17 |
| === Nightw0lf is now known as Nightwolf | ||
| camps | thanks willis | 01:17 |
| the_cyber_guy | is there any way so that i can reinstall realtek ethernet driver again, offline ? | 01:17 |
| Siria_Calv | sive: If the demo is supposed to be as it is, the demo is a total scam. | 01:17 |
| cr0talu5 | about persistant install on USB, it is not safe to upgrade system is it? I remeber trying that earlier (may have been other Linux) and it broke the USB | 01:17 |
| kinja-sheep | SuspectZero: I'm not sure -- I don't use splashs. Show me the video and I'll show you which splashes you want -- but I think you're talking about xplash. usplash only hide the scrolling text where xplash will display stuffs until Gnome and services are done loading. | 01:17 |
| Krolljg | unfortunatly i have vista on that hdd with alot of important info on it | 01:17 |
| Siria_Calv | oops | 01:18 |
| atrus | usb-creator-gtk says freshly formatted drives have zero free space. is there any way i can fix it, or another way i can burn this ubuntu iso file onto a usb drive? | 01:18 |
| zetheroo | Dr_Willis: because he has 64bit Ubuntu will it be any different drivers wise than having 32bit? | 01:18 |
| the_cyber_guy | !help | 01:18 |
| 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. :-) | 01:18 |
| Siria_Calv | sivel: If the demo is supposed to be as it is, it´s a total scam | 01:18 |
| Dr_Willis | zetheroo: not that ive ever seen | 01:18 |
| zetheroo | Krolljg: is there space on that hdd? | 01:18 |
| zetheroo | Krolljg: what about dual booting? | 01:18 |
| dragon | While installing Karmic desktop amd64 on a brand new HP desktop, I selected "Install now" instead of "Try without installing option" from a LiveCD at boot time, but I was still taken to the LiveCD session. Tried this 4 times to make sure I wasn't doing something wrong. I've installed Ubuntu on at least 30-40 machines and never encountered this before. Is this a known issue? | 01:18 |
| zetheroo | Dr_Willis: ok | 01:18 |
| cr0talu5 | I know I can install and upgrade packages nicely, have been trying a lot with 904 desktop tonight, but was thinking of system updates.. | 01:18 |
| SuspectZero | kinja-sheep, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oh6-uhGvBIY | 01:19 |
| SuspectZero | kinja-sheep, pm? | 01:19 |
| kinja-sheep | SuspectZero: Okay. That is xplash you're looking at -- mockup. Looks nice. :) | 01:19 |
| Siria_Calv | dragon: The newer ubuntu live install cds use a GUI to install regards of whether or not you try it out first. | 01:19 |
| Siria_Calv | dragon *...regardless of...* | 01:20 |
| Krolljg | zetheroo: that was the idea to leave my vista hdd alone and install ubuntu onto my external hardrive. I followed a set of instuctions but missed the last step because im a retard. Now I have grub installed only my vista hdd ( i think) and i cannot boot into vista a grub just goes into recovery mode | 01:20 |
| SuspectZero | kinja-sheep, exactly but with my pc, the boot up is a boot up as usual then gdm loads up, when i log in THEN xsplash starts up | 01:20 |
| dragon | Siria_Calv: I've always seen that Ubiquity GUI. This time it was booting *into the Live session* which takes 10 mins to start itself. | 01:20 |
| camps | anyone able to dual-boot between windows xp and ubuntu with GRUB? | 01:20 |
| zetheroo | Krolljg: so you have GRUB | 01:20 |
| rww | ubottu: crosspost | dragon | 01:21 |
| ubottu | dragon: Please don't ask the same question in multiple Ubuntu channels at the same time. Many helpers are in more than one channel and it's not fair to them or the other people seeking support. | 01:21 |
| dragon | camps: It works perfectly fine. | 01:21 |
| zetheroo | Krolljg: is there an entry for the Ubuntu you just installed? | 01:21 |
| zetheroo | camps: been able to do that for 4 years :) | 01:21 |
| camps | hmm | 01:21 |
| kinja-sheep | SuspectZero: Yes. Xplash is intended to replace Usplash but.. meh, that is the idea for now. Supposedly it should load X right away and start doing stuffs right away behind the curtain but that's not the case. | 01:22 |
| Siria_Calv | dragon, this sounds like a bug in the cd. Run the ´Check disc for errors...´ opetion in the live cd menu. If it shows nothing wrong, or it boots the live session instead, report it as a bug to the ubuntu dev team | 01:22 |
| Siria_Calv | *option* | 01:22 |
| SuspectZero | kinja-sheep, ah so mine is working as its suppose to right now | 01:22 |
| Dreamglider | How do i get two programs to listen to line in ? | 01:22 |
| Krolljg | zetheroo: sorry i dont know, im running this from the live cd! basically when i boot my computer grub tries to load but because my ubuntu is installed on my external hardrive it doesnt read it for some reason. there is no grub gui but its there | 01:22 |
| camps | i have one hard drive. What i did was set up two logical partitions. I installed windows xp on the first partition. After xp was installed, I installed ubuntu 9.1 on the second partition. | 01:23 |
| kinja-sheep | SuspectZero: It's not in pristine condition. It's a work in progress... intending to replace. Also, trying to phrase out HAL. Yes, it is working as it should be. | 01:23 |
| dragon | Siria_Calv: thanks. | 01:23 |
| camps | after installation, i booted up again and it came to grub | 01:23 |
| Dreamglider | at the moment i can only use one at the time, if i try to open another prog it does not hear anything | 01:23 |
| dragon | !enter | camps | 01:23 |
| ubottu | camps: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 01:23 |
| Siria_Calv | dragon: your very welcome | 01:23 |
| zetheroo | Krolljg: grub shows a list of bootable operating systems ... is there one entry in the list for Ubuntu? | 01:23 |
| SuspectZero | kinja-sheep, ah perfect, tyvm for the help, here i thought i was missing something cause i installed it on gentoo | 01:23 |
| kinja-sheep | SuspectZero: No prob. | 01:24 |
| SuspectZero | so is there any way of getting that kind of boot | 01:24 |
| SuspectZero | ? | 01:24 |
| Siria_Calv | dragon: If it does show an error, rdownload the iso and burn it to blank disc, or request a live cd | 01:24 |
| camps | it gave me about 4 instances related to booting up with ubuntu and 1 option for windows xp pro. When choosing xp pro, a dos screen pops up and says " | 01:24 |
| SuspectZero | or should i give up for now? | 01:24 |
| Siria_Calv | dragon: *redownload* | 01:24 |
| camps | 'cannot locate ntoskrnl.dll' | 01:24 |
| zetheroo | Krolljg: or are you saying that you don't even see the grub list when you boot up? | 01:24 |
| xyblor | why doesn't ubuntu come with autofs? is there a more sensible way to automount things these days? | 01:24 |
| kinja-sheep | SuspectZero: If you think about it, when you sign in GDM, there are things happening, gnome panel appearing and such. With xplash in place, and when xplash disappear, "it is ready, awaiting your commands" | 01:25 |
| camps | now, i checked online, but i never really had any answers from the ubuntu forums. | 01:25 |
| kinja-sheep | SuspectZero: It is more of illustrations, I will say. :) | 01:25 |
| camps | most of the threads i read said that grub and windows thing don't get along | 01:26 |
| zetheroo | Krolljg: if you have the grub menu appearing and you see the Ubuntu entry but cannot boot into it ... it is most likely that grub cannot locate the boot drive .... which is fixable ... but can be a real pain ... | 01:26 |
| SuspectZero | kinja-sheep, like i said before im on gentoo, i dont even have gnome, i have fluxbox :P | 01:26 |
| SuspectZero | i just asked in here cause xsplash is used in ubuntu | 01:26 |
| zetheroo | camps: depends how you do it | 01:26 |
| CAPcap | how do i make a folder hidden? | 01:27 |
| zetheroo | camps: Windows first and then Ubuntu ... not the other way around | 01:27 |
| SuspectZero | thought u guys would know more about it than #gentoo | 01:27 |
| The-Jag | does anybody know of a program to solve karnaugh map? | 01:27 |
| Siria_Calv | sivel: I didn´t mean nothing based on wine, I meant just not wine its self. Since programs based on wine are most likely to have altered its source, it is quite possible that some programs that are compatible with wine aren´t with them and vice-versa. So I am open to suggestions of non-wine-or-cross-over programs that are based on wine. | 01:27 |
| zetheroo | CAPcap: delete it ... :P | 01:27 |
| camps | zeth: i tried that, but windows always fails to boot everytime i finish installing ubuntu | 01:27 |
| zetheroo | SuspectZero: know more about what? | 01:27 |
| SuspectZero | zetheroo, xsplash | 01:27 |
| CAPcap | zetheroo really there isnt a way to set a folder as hidden? | 01:27 |
| The-Jag | zetheroo: are u talking to me? | 01:28 |
| zetheroo | camps: fails to boot ... how? ... what error? | 01:28 |
| tsimpson | CAPcap: any folder starting with '.' is hidden | 01:28 |
| zetheroo | CAPcap: I dunno ha ... was jesting ... | 01:28 |
| CAPcap | thanks tsimpson | 01:29 |
| Siria_Calv | camps: Sounds like there is an error with the Windows installation. As long as you don´t choose to get rid of the windows partition in the ubuntu installation, then windows would work if it was installed fully correctly and successful. | 01:29 |
| camps | zeth: it's like failure to load ntoskrnl.dll | 01:29 |
| The-Jag | pls anyone? | 01:29 |
| zetheroo | The-Jag: I mention the name of whom I am speaking to .... | 01:29 |
| zetheroo | SuspectZero: in Ubuntu ? | 01:29 |
| camps | siria: but windows opened fine before. both winxp and ubuntu are installed on different partitions | 01:29 |
| The-Jag | zetheroo: ooops didn't noticed it :p | 01:29 |
| Siria_Calv | camps, and also if windows created partitions that the os isn´t actually on, you should keep those too to make sure windows will still work. | 01:29 |
| zetheroo | camps: ugh ... that is a corruption in Windows ... | 01:30 |
| camps | siria: i realized that as well. winxp creates a reserve partition. I was careful not to overwrite | 01:30 |
| danbhfive | camps: is windows on the first partition? | 01:30 |
| zetheroo | camps: how did you make those partitions? in Windows or in Ubuntu? | 01:30 |
| camps | dan: yes, ubuntu on the 2nd | 01:31 |
| dragon | camps: what's the error message when you try to boot windows? | 01:31 |
| camps | zeth: windows | 01:31 |
| camps | dragon: failure to load ntoskrnl.dll | 01:31 |
| Siria_Calv | camps, this is not just for camps, but for everyone. When you reply to me USE MY FULL NICK. This is so that my client will highlight it and I can find it much quicker if I wasn´t here when it was sent. | 01:31 |
| SuspectZero | so kinja-sheep how do u have ur boot up set up? i want a pretty boot so to speak | 01:31 |
| ace721 | I'm trying to install Ubuntu 9.10 on a Toshiba Satellite A135-S2266 laptop. I boot up from Live CD and don't have a mouse or keyboard. I hook up a USB mouse and it works. I check for proprietary drivers and there are none. Anyone know how to fix this? | 01:32 |
| SuspectZero | right now i just have text flying on the screen then i startx | 01:32 |
| zetheroo | camps: that is defintely a Windows error .. nothing that grub would have caused ... | 01:32 |
| camps | siria_calv: sorry about that, not too familiar with irc etiquette | 01:32 |

| PeterT | wtf! | 01:32 |
| PeterT | Holaaaaaaaaaaaaaa | 01:32 |
| dragon | camps: are you resizing the partition during installation? | 01:32 |
| PeterT | oh shoot | 01:32 |
| PeterT | :-) | 01:32 |
| camps | siria_calv: apologies :) | 01:32 |
| SuspectZero | kinja-sheep, ah ok. well thanks alot for the help. preciate it | 01:32 |
| camps | dragon: yes | 01:33 |
| PeterT | /ban paula27 | 01:33 |
| Siria_Calv | camps: though to be honest I could be wrong about it not being irc etiquite. | 01:33 |
| FloodBot1 | NOTICE - If you couldn't speak to the channel during the past minutes, please try again now. | 01:33 |
| kinja-sheep | SuspectZero: If you haven't heard yet, lynx have some nice nifty xplash lately | 01:33 |
| zetheroo | camps: did you resize the Windows partition during install? | 01:33 |
| ace721 | I'm trying to install Ubuntu 9.10 on a Toshiba Satellite A135-S2266 laptop. I boot up from Live CD and don't have a mouse or keyboard. I hook up a USB mouse and it works. I check for proprietary drivers and there are none. Anyone know how to fix this? | 01:33 |
| camps | dragon: one hard drive and two logical partitions. first partition is windows xp installed first. second partition ubuntu installed 2nd | 01:33 |
| dragon | !tab | camps | 01:33 |
| ubottu | camps: 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. | 01:33 |
| camps | dragon: did not touch anything with the first partition | 01:33 |
| camps | dragon, thanks! | 01:34 |
| dragon | camps: try to create two physical partitions on the drive, install windows on first, verify that it boots, then install ubuntu on the second without resizing anything at boot time. | 01:34 |
| camps | dragon, that is exactly what i did | 01:35 |
| b0n1 | hi | 01:35 |
| Siria_Calv | camps: according to what you just said, you DELETED the reserve partition that windows created. At least if you told the truth about there being a reserve partition made by your windows. | 01:35 |
| b0n1 | how can i run a makefile via console? | 01:35 |
| cj | anyone feel like helping me figure out why hibernate isn't working for me? | 01:35 |
| dragon | camps: you said logical partitions, not physical. | 01:35 |
| cj | my hda died and I had to re-add it to my raid1 | 01:35 |
| danbhfive | b0n1: make? | 01:35 |
| b0n1 | or how do i install programms via makefile in general | 01:35 |
| cj | s/hda/sda/ in case it matters | 01:35 |
| zetheroo | camps: physical partitions | 01:35 |
| danbhfive | !checkinstall | b0n1 | 01:36 |
| ubottu | b0n1: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 01:36 |
| camps | they have to be physical? | 01:36 |
| b0n1 | i just go to the direction where the makefile is and then type in make makefile? | 01:36 |
| cj | b0n1: makefile installation usuall involves ./configure && make && sudo make install | 01:36 |
| dragon | camps: apparently, yes | 01:36 |
| tsimpson | b0n1: install build-essential, run "make && sudo make install" | 01:36 |
| zetheroo | camps: use our names ;) and yeah | 01:36 |
| camps | dragon, i can kind of see how that would make sense...but | 01:36 |
| SuspectZero | kinja-sheep, sorry i dont know what u meant by that last statement | 01:36 |
| SuspectZero | XD | 01:36 |
| dragon | camps: I believe it's worth a try. It would be good for you in the long run as well. | 01:36 |
| zetheroo | camps: or just install Windows to the whole drive and let Ubuntu do it all automatically :) | 01:37 |
| kapipi | Is there anyone here who have gained an understanding of how ibus works on ubuntu? I am trying to fix a problem with ibus and japanese input via the anthy engine. | 01:37 |
| * cj <- needs help figuring out why hibernate isn't working... | 01:37 | |
| cj | what's the first step? | 01:37 |
| camps | dragon, so you are definitely saying that i should use 2 different hard drives...one for xp, and one for ubuntu | 01:37 |
| b0n1 | tsimpson, what do you mean? | 01:37 |
| b0n1 | install build-essentials | 01:37 |
| b0n1 | how to do that? | 01:37 |
| cj | b0n1: sudo apt-get install build-essentials | 01:38 |
| tsimpson | b0n1: with the package manager, it's a package | 01:38 |
| Siria_Calv | Can somebody please a virtual machine for linux that can run Windows? It must not require a genuine windows os install cd to run windows programs. It has to be able to run windows programs without a genuine windows os. DO NOT TELL ME TO USE WINE! I am asking because wine isn´t wanting to run Genesis2D properly. The version of wine I have is the latest developmental version from winehq downloaded by the package repository listed on | 01:38 |
| Siria_Calv | their site for Ubuntu 9.10 | 01:38 |
| cj | b0n1: (from the command prompt) | 01:38 |
| cj | b0n1: what software are you trying to install? if it's packaged for ubuntu, you may be able to get the dependencies with 'sudo apt-get build-dep <package>' | 01:38 |
| phantom2212 | how do I install adobe flash in ubuntu bit? | 01:38 |
| collectek | react os? | 01:38 |
| b0n1 | couldnt find package build-essentials | 01:38 |
| zetheroo | Siria_Calv: Virtual Box | 01:39 |
| cj | Siria_Calv: use qemu | 01:39 |
| tsimpson | !vm | Siria_Calv | 01:39 |
| ubottu | Siria_Calv: There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications | 01:39 |
| zetheroo | phantom2212: 64bit? | 01:39 |
| phantom2212 | yes | 01:39 |
| b0n1 | cj, on sudo apt-get install build-essentials i get the response couldnt find package build-essentials | 01:39 |
| CyL | what would be the right place for my own startup scritps? | 01:40 |
| zetheroo | phantom2212: hehe .. there is a way ... have you googled it? | 01:40 |
| genii | Siria_Calv: There is a project also called ReactOS, but if you don't like WINE you probably won't like that one either since it uses that at it's core | 01:40 |
| koshari | CyL home/user/bin | 01:40 |
| phantom2212 | uhm i expected to be easy | 01:40 |
| Dr_Willis | !flash | 01:40 |
| ubottu | To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 01:40 |
| b0n1 | cj, actually i just want to emulate mac | 01:40 |
| zetheroo | phantom2212: it is relatively easy | 01:40 |
| b0n1 | because i want to convert a .flac file to an alac file | 01:40 |
| zetheroo | phantom2212: I am getting the page for you | 01:41 |
| Siria_Calv | I like wine, I just want something different then wine in some way regardles of whether or not it is based on wine on the chance itll run something better then wine | 01:41 |
| b0n1 | alac is the lossless codec from apple | 01:41 |
| * CayceP boggles | 01:41 | |
| cj | b0n1: hmm? how do you mean 'emulate mac'? | 01:41 |
| b0n1 | http://mac-on-linux.sourceforge.net/ | 01:41 |
| Dr_Willis | Siria_Calv: i doubt if you are going to find somnthing 'better then wine' other then more specicically tweaked wine variangs | 01:41 |
| tsimpson | b0n1: it's build-essential, not build-essentials | 01:41 |
| domiel | Hi all! I just installed ubuntu karmic and I was about to activate the proprietary nVidia driver but I notice that if I run glxinfo it indicates "direct rendering: Yes" using the open driver.

| droid7 | how come whne I pause a flash video the video stops but the sound plays for about 1-2 seconds before pausing ? | 01:43 |
| Siria_Calv | Dr_Willis: I don´t want something better then wine at running all windows programs, just better at running a specific program. And if it has any significant variations, regardless of whether or not their major, it just migh | 01:43 |
| Siria_Calv | *...just might* | 01:43 |
| Dr_Willis | Siria_Calv: check teh wine app database, often you can tweak wine setups for specific apps. | 01:43 |
| Dreamglider | how do i setup ubuntu so that two programs can listen to line in at the same time ? | 01:43 |
| Siria_Calv | Dr_Willis: the app-db doesn´t have the app I want to work. | 01:44 |
| b0n1 | cj, do you know an alternative way to convert flac--> alac ? | 01:44 |
| cj | b0n1: for mol, it's ./configure --prefix=/opt/mol && make && sudo make install | 01:44 |
| b0n1 | the only programm that does it is XLD as far as i know | 01:44 |
| cj | or whatever you want your --prefix to be | 01:44 |

| b0n1 | cj, sorry i dont know much about those make stuff , do i have to go into the mol direction and then type ./configure --prefix=/opt/mol && make && sudo make install in the console? | 01:46 |
| Euthanatos | thanks =) | 01:46 |
| b0n1 | i dont understand that part ./configure --prefix=/opt/mol | 01:46 |
| Dr_Willis | b0n1: prefix is where the thing will 'install' to | 01:47 |
| Siria_Calv | Dr_Willis: according to the exact wording of the react os sites description, React OS is not based on the code for wine. Since they don´t outright say so, I can´t prove it is true about React OS. | 01:47 |
| Maletor | Why won't XBMC play my DTS files while VLC can? | 01:47 |
| b0n1 | so that means install it in /opt/mol? | 01:48 |
| Dr_Willis | Siria_Calv: i recall an artical the other day where reactos is going to use more of the wine core. its not 'based' on wine - from waht i recall. but its going to start using more wine 'stuff' in the near future | 01:48 |

| b0n1 | Dr_Willis, what do i have to type in if i am in the mol direction | 01:53 |
| nrich | I'm used to rh, and there we have headers and devel. are you saying the headers package here will have what I need to compile modules? | 01:53 |
| b0n1 | ./configure --prefix=/opt/mol && make && sudo make install | 01:53 |
| Dr_Willis | b0n1: normally ./configure, make , sudo make install. err.. MOL last i checked emulated the PPC mac stuff.. Not the newer intel based, (i could be wrong) | 01:53 |

| b0n1 | i did | 02:03 |
| * Dr_Willis has never even heard of alac | 02:03 | |
| b0n1 | its the lossless format of apple | 02:04 |
| Dr_Willis | or use wine and some windows tools | 02:04 |

| b0n1 | there are two | 02:04 |
| b0n1 | foo2000 | 02:04 |

| Dr_Willis | No idea. I dont worry too much about lossless. | 02:05 |
| b0n1 | IdleOne, i already read that | 02:05 |
| Dr_Willis | seems a little extreme learning to compile MOL to then install some OS-X to run one app.. :) | 02:06 |
| b0n1 | :P | 02:06 |

| sdwrage | wow wtf I cant sudo cp a directory into another directory? 0_o | 02:08 |
| b0n1 | he said he compared files and there were differences | 02:08 |
| Dr_Willis | my ffmpeg says it supports ALAC | 02:08 |
| === Ferris- is now known as Ferris`away | ||
| === m is now known as DDwi | ||
| Dr_Willis | sdwrage: use the -r option perhaps . or was it -R | 02:08 |
| b0n1 | but does it convert it correct Dr_Willis ? | 02:08 |
| b0n1 | as i heard it doesnt | 02:08 |
| Dr_Willis | b0n1: how would i know.. ive never even HEARD of alac till 5 min ago | 02:09 |
| b0n1 | yeah me too | 02:09 |
| IdleOne | according to ffmpeg -formats | grep alac >>> DEA alac ALAC (Apple Lossless Audio Codec) | 02:09 |
| IdleOne | so yes lossless | 02:09 |
| Dr_Willis | if its buggy - its very likely theres fixed ffmpeg in the ffmpeg homepage/source/stuff | 02:09 |
| b0n1 | ok i think i will give it a try | 02:09 |
| IdleOne | jussi01: you there? | 02:11 |

| genii | Nattgew: No, it will tell you it can't make the file | 02:15 |
| IdleOne | or not | 02:15 |
| genii | Nattgew: If you're trying to do something like: mkdir /a/b/c when /a or /a/b doesn't exist yet, you might get that "doesn't exist" message | 02:16 |
| helper | hey need help =), i wants a graph for cache ussage in squid, to see how much the proxy is helping reduce bandwidth ussage | 02:16 |

| wizzo50 | ppf | 02:19 |
| _2 | anyone ? | 02:19 |
| genii | Nattgew: Ah, with -p shouldn't give the error, correct. It WOULD still give the "doesn't exist" though using -p when trying to make a hierarchy in somewhere no writing privs though, because the first dir create fails, then it goes to that error msg | 02:20 |
| poi77 | Hi! I need to have a file accessible to another account. In my account it shows -rwxr-xr-x but I am logged into the other account I cannot see it: ls: ... Permission denied. The rest of the directory has '0' permissions for general users | 02:22 |
| _2 | poi77 it's the dir you don't have access too | 02:22 |

| b0n1 | i dont now my boss is strange sometimes | 02:24 |
| genii | b0n1: http://ask.metafilter.com/107172/FLAC-ALAC has some answers to the questions you have, including how to check if it really is the same lossless info in both the files | 02:25 |
| Dr_Willis | b0n1: ask him if he can tell then.. or just keep both files.. | 02:25 |
| b0n1 | he told me whether i can convert his cd music to lossless types because he hears a difference in mp3 and the original files | 02:25 |
| wizzo50 | How do you open a ppf file? | 02:25 |
| Dr_Willis | doing personal busy work for the boss on company time.. lovely | 02:25 |
| Dr_Willis | I doubt if he can hear the differance btweek a good mp3 and the originals. | 02:26 |
| * iflema yeah man huge difference | 02:26 | |
| genii | wizzo50: What made the file in the first place? | 02:27 |
| David-T | poi77: you could set the dir to rwx--x--x, then other users can access files in the directory (if they have the appropriate permission) but can't get a directory listing (from ls) | 02:27 |
| Dr_Willis | given my age and being a male.. i cant tell teh diff.. of course some musucian may be able to.. a factory worker... proberly not | 02:27 |
| _2 | poi77 yes or you can restrict some files/dirs/inodes in your home. i might suggest changing $HOME to rwx--x--x and making sure all private content is something like rwx------ for dirs or rw------- for files then make one public dir $HOME/public with perms rwxr-xr-x that will let anyone chdir to your public dir and access the files in it | 02:27 |

| b0n1 | lol | 02:29 |
| b0n1 | You can verify this if you are paranoid by dumping the final apple format back into a WAV/AIFF and comparing with the intermediate WAV/AIFF from the FLAC file. | 02:29 |
| b0n1 | lol yes Dr_Willis | 02:30 |
| Dr_Willis | b0n1: Hmm? | 02:30 |
| b0n1 | thats whats my oppinion too | 02:30 |
| dirty | I have a pink floyd and pink floyd mp3's. The best quality i found was mp3 and believe me Ive got a system that emphasis it | 02:30 |
| b0n1 | lol he said mp3 files dont stimulate his brain | 02:30 |

| poi77 | _2: "none will be visable" What do you mean by that? | 02:32 |
| genii | wizzo50: According to http://www.fileinfo.com/extension/ppf it could be a PlayStation Patch Format File, a Publisher Project File, or a Paint Shop Pro Soft Plastic Preset File. So without knowing what made it, your likely app if it's a graphics-program-file is Gimp | 02:32 |

| wizzo50 | Yea, the way I can see it, it can't be opened in Windows after I looked it up: Cannot access PPF files on windows? | 02:33 |
| wizzo50 | When windows gives you an error message saying that it | 02:33 |
| wizzo50 | "Cannot open PPF files", this means either: | 02:33 |
| wizzo50 | A. You need to identify a program that can open the file | 02:33 |

| Tartaros | hi. Say i want to create a "service" out of an executable (in my case bzflag server) how would i do that the proper ubuntu way? | 03:10 |
| genii | Tartaros: Probably with update-rc.d | 03:11 |
| rumpsy | i like bzflag :) | 03:11 |
| _2 | genii does upstart still use the symlinks in the rc#.d/ 's ? | 03:11 |
| Tartaros | genii: well dont i need to create some sort of service script? | 03:12 |
| paddy_melon | psycho_oreos, the Wifi card is a Ralink RT3090 Wireless 802.11n 1T/1R PCIe [1814:3090] | 03:12 |
| Tartaros | I think i even saw an "universal" service script somewhere once, but can§t remember where ofc :) | 03:12 |
| psycho_oreos | paddy_melon, ahh that will pretty much require the latest kernel or even wireless-testing | 03:12 |
| genii | _2: Not sure. But I made a small thing I needed to run and added it in manually with update-rc.d method, it runs on boot (at least for now) | 03:13 |
| paddy_melon | psycho_oreos... should I plug into ethernet and update? THen what? | 03:13 |
| psycho_oreos | paddy_melon, which kernel version are you with that NBR? | 03:13 |

| icehawk78 | I've got a process of xbmc that doesn't appear to respond to a kill command (sudo kill [pid]) | 03:17 |
| icehawk78 | Is there a... stronger version of kill? | 03:17 |
| icehawk78 | superkill? | 03:17 |
| Eneerge | eh | 03:17 |
| Eneerge | why is my linux using an i686 kernel | 03:17 |
| paddy_melon | icehawk78, killall? | 03:17 |
| psycho_oreos | Eneerge, it doesn't really matter, i686 is more optimised for your CPU level | 03:18 |
| Eneerge | when i downloaded the x64 iso (i installed the same usb image to this computer and it works fine in x64) | 03:18 |
| unimatrix | Eneerge: because you installed it? | 03:18 |
| icehawk78 | paddy_melon: Will that actually kill everything, or will it just kill everything related to one process? | 03:18 |
| Eneerge | i haven't installed anything | 03:18 |
| Eneerge | its on a c2d t9400 | 03:18 |
| _2 | icehawk78 kill -6 $blah ;kill -9 $blah ;kill -15 $blah ;killall $name | 03:18 |
| Eneerge | i havent installed any kernel | 03:18 |
| Eneerge | the computer doesnt even have network capability | 03:18 |
| void_pointer | Tartaros look in your /etc/init.d directory for starty/stoppy goodness | 03:18 |
| Eneerge | or touchpad or usb for that matter because everything is broken | 03:19 |
| psycho_oreos | Eneerge, so you're getting x86-64? | 03:19 |
| _2 | icehawk78 and add authority as needed sudo kill**** | 03:19 |
| Eneerge | yes, i've installed x86-64 | 03:19 |
| icehawk78 | _2: Ah, kill -6 did the job. | 03:19 |
| regfire | handbrake on 64 is where its at | 03:19 |
| icehawk78 | Thanks much. | 03:19 |
| psycho_oreos | Eneerge, ahh yes, drivers and stuff may have issues with x86-64, if you tried the i386, those devices may gain support | 03:19 |
| Eneerge | 8.10 worked fine and 9.04 i believe did as well | 03:20 |
| _2 | icehawk78 if you wanted to really nuke everything... sudo kill -9 -1 <<<< expect a console login prompt | 03:20 |
| Eneerge | nvidia 9700m gt, synaptics touchpad, etc | 03:20 |
| Eneerge | its not like i have old stuff | 03:20 |
| Eneerge | It's a G50V which is supposed to be supported | 03:21 |
| rumpsy | Eneerge: if and only you were updated 9.10 | 03:21 |
| icehawk78 | _2: Haha, nope, I just wanted it to actually die. When top said it was using 106% of my CPU (on top of other things using another 20) I didn't think it would be good. | 03:21 |
| Eneerge | i can't install any drivers because it's somehow decided to use the i686 kernel | 03:21 |
| _2 | icehawk78 note. all my examples were progressively stronger with the exception of killall perhaps | 03:21 |
| un214 | _2 for a small laugh kill -9 1 (fyi nothing happens even though you expect something bad) | 03:21 |
| speps | hi guys a question, can i use recordmydesktop to send captured data as a stream without any compression?If it's not possible how can i do that?Thanks | 03:22 |
| Eneerge | how would i force it to use the different kernel. the image in the grub is pointing to the x64 kernel | 03:22 |
| _2 | un214 heh yeah and 1 != -1 | 03:22 |
| Trek | Eneerge, what distro of Ubu? | 03:23 |
| Eneerge | karmic | 03:23 |

| Eneerge | yeah | 03:23 |
| Eneerge | that's the only version i've installed | 03:23 |
| _2 | un214 actually kill -9 -1 is quite handy, as long as you are not superuser | 03:23 |

| Tartaros | void_pointer: well isn't there some tutorial to creating a service, the ubuntu/upstart way< | 03:24 |
| Eneerge | heh | 03:25 |
| un214 | I recall a rather nazi-ish admin who ran a script that su'd to each user in turn, and ran a C-shell script that clobbered the enviromnent files (.profile, .bash_profile, .cshrc) with stock copies | 03:25 |
| un214 | lucky for me I had placed exec ksh in my .cshrc long before | 03:25 |
| void_pointer | Tartaros probably. I'm just telling you the easy way. All you need is to add it with update-rc.d and put: case "$1" in | 03:26 |
| void_pointer | start) | 03:26 |
| void_pointer | start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile $PIDFILE --name <your executable> $SSD_ARG -- $CONFIG_FILE >/dev/null 2>&1 || log_end_msg 1 | 03:26 |

| Trek | can't you remove the i386 kernel through Synaptic? | 03:27 |
| void_pointer | Tartaros and similar for stop. Just check out update-rc.d and start-stop-daemon. It's pretty straightforward. Look at some of the scripts in /etc/init.d to see how others have handled it | 03:27 |
| _2 | un214 heh. sounds like the kind of system that needs a good crackin' :) | 03:27 |
| un214 | evon: fstab is in /etc, to hot-apply run mount -a | 03:27 |
| evon | un214: thanks you the man | 03:27 |
| un214 | _2 of course he "fixed" that one the second time around, so I left something nasty in my .cshrc for him -- I took /bin out of the path so nothing worked | 03:30 |
| un214 | _2: he never did fix his script to look at the login shell | 03:30 |
| Tartaros | void_pointer: well for example I looked into networkmanager script and there it says stuff about being converted to upstart job so I was wondering how would I make my own upstart job :) | 03:30 |

| Eneerge | i mean what the heck? | 03:32 |
| IdleOne | _2: I don't | 03:32 |
| evon | un214: can you remind me what else i have to put for my fstab line please I have this so far "/dev/sdb /media/windisk" i want read and write permissions to be set | 03:32 |
| Trek | Eneerge: can't you remove the i386 kernel through Synaptic and replace it with the version you need? | 03:32 |
| un214 | /dev/sdb /media/windisk fstype options dump pass | 03:32 |
| un214 | fstype is probably ntfs, options would be rw, dump 0, pass 0 (probably) | 03:33 |
| Eneerge | what's the shortcut to access the system menu | 03:33 |
| Eneerge | i have no mouse | 03:33 |
| evon | un214: thanks | 03:33 |
| _2 | IdleOne can one change from the scsi device, back to the traditional hd* device nodes ? | 03:33 |
| Eneerge | (no touchpad support and no usb support atm) | 03:33 |
| un214 | Ctrl+Alt+F1 | 03:33 |
| Eneerge | heh, that's tty change | 03:34 |
| un214 | _2 only if one has ide drives | 03:34 |
| un214 | Eneerge: well I do all my admin work from the command prompt | 03:34 |
| IdleOne | _2: direct your questions to the channel please. highlighting me specifically with questions is bordering on trolling. | 03:34 |
| Eneerge | k | 03:34 |
| _2 | un214 i do, but the 9.10 ubuntu sets the as sd* | 03:34 |
| linette | so the 'loading' splash screen keeps looping, and making the little drum sound. If I I update xorg.conf to vesa I can log in but with 640x480 resolution! | 03:34 |
| un214 | bleh | 03:34 |
| Eneerge | i dont have network capability either | 03:34 |
| Eneerge | so i cant install nothing | 03:35 |
| paddy_melon | psycho_oreos, I've installed the driver and, it now registers there is wifi on the device but, it finds neither of my networks (one unsecured) | 03:35 |
| paddy_melon | neither are hidden | 03:35 |
| paddy_melon | and are working fine | 03:35 |
| sina | I just installed Ubuntu, any must-have applications? | 03:35 |
| _2 | IdleOne so ban me. i'm leaving anyway. | 03:35 |
| un214 | _2: funny it created my cdrom devices as hd so ... | 03:35 |
| psycho_oreos | paddy_melon, I think you're missing a firmware, I'd check dmesg or if unsure, paste the output of dmesg in full into pastebin | 03:35 |
| Trek | Eneerge, you're stuck with no way to work then, unless you've got an older kernel hiding there. | 03:36 |
| un214 | he can snearkernet-fix if somebody can guess the fix | 03:36 |
| Trek | Eneerge, your last option is a reinstallation | 03:36 |
| underdev | i looked around, but couldn't find it: are there any debs for moinmoin 9.1? | 03:36 |
| Eneerge | tried that option about 10 times, lol | 03:36 |
| void_pointer | sina don't worry about must-have applications, just start using the command line until your fingers bleed. Then bandage them up and start again | 03:37 |
| sina | void_pointer, what useful things can I do? | 03:37 |
| void_pointer | sina mastery over the command line is everything in *nix. Once you have abandoned Gnome/KDE you will achieve inner wisdom | 03:37 |
| linette | so, I guess my question is, is there a way to make the intel drives work, or is there a way to get higher resolution out of vesa | 03:37 |
| un214 | "you have entered an older world" | 03:38 |
| Eneerge | the live-cd/live-usb runs perfectly | 03:38 |
| Eneerge | i can even enable compiz effects | 03:38 |
| void_pointer | sina anything and everything possible with computing. Except perhaps editing photos. | 03:38 |
| sina | You can't browse the internet half-properly from a command line | 03:38 |
| Eneerge | all wireless and networking working, etc | 03:38 |
| Eneerge | but after installing, nothing works | 03:38 |
| void_pointer | sina well you could edit photos, but it would be hard to see the results | 03:38 |
| un214 | void_pointer: it's called a printer | 03:39 |
| void_pointer | sina of course you can. But that is beside the point. Use a browser for browsing, obviously. Just get aquainted with the command line | 03:39 |
| rumpsy | linette: my point is, don't force default drivers to work for your need, just leave as default | 03:39 |
| Eneerge | could i image the flash drive and then do a exact copy to the hd | 03:39 |
| void_pointer | sina if your fingers aren't bleeding you aren't linuxing enough | 03:39 |
| sina | Nah | 03:39 |
| sina | I like my GUI | 03:39 |
| rumpsy | sina: lol , he may be right | 03:39 |
| sina | plus I can't have my emma watson wallpaper in a CLI | 03:40 |
| cfedde | that's what window backgrounds are for. | 03:40 |
| rumpsy | sina: give a try to GNUSTEP | 03:41 |
| trism | sina: sure you could, gnome-terminal, Edit/Profile Preferences/Background Tab, background image | 03:41 |
| trism | sina: or just make it transparent | 03:41 |
| sina | hard to read text | 03:41 |
| sina | :D | 03:41 |
| trism | true | 03:41 |
| void_pointer | sina of course you can. I'm not saying don't use a window manager. I use openbox. I'm saying learn to use the command line | 03:41 |
| cfedde | compromises all around. | 03:42 |
| void_pointer | sina it's the best linux advice you'll ever get. Plus learn to read man pages | 03:42 |
| paddy_melon | psycho_oreos... can you please checkout my dmesg: http://paste.ubuntu.com/363008/ | 03:42 |
| void_pointer | sina man page read like a wild animal. Until your eyeballs bleed | 03:42 |
| sina | extremist much | 03:42 |
| void_pointer | sina you will only get out of *nix what you put in. | 03:42 |

| psycho_oreos | paddy_melon, but that wireless chipset, afaik does have ralink sta driver support initially and now in bleeding edge kernel versions and possibly be in wireless-testing.git, there is native support for that chipset | 04:20 |
| JohnTeddy | I got a new laptop, and formatted with 9.10. Everything works, sound, video, etc all work fine. When I put in an sd card into my laptop though, nothing happens. How can I find out what is wrong? | 04:20 |
| psycho_oreos | paddy_melon, the issue is that sta driver can be cumbersome, and native driver for that chipset is not recommended for beginners | 04:21 |
| paddy_melon | ok | 04:21 |
| paddy_melon | so, it may be fixed in the future? | 04:21 |
| psycho_oreos | paddy_melon, possibly yes, I don't know which ubuntu version will have it because this chipset is somewhat new and the native support is slowly catching up | 04:22 |
| apoc90 | how can i make it so rhythm box autoplays the song when i click it, instead of just adding it to the library? | 04:22 |

| ardchoille | Linera: The item you're referring to is called a Window List, and it resides on the panel. fwiw I don't evenuse a Window List inmy panel. | 04:46 |
| basic | so what should i do | 04:46 |
| h00k | so, I've had ubiquity fail to open (and therefore fail to install), I've got a copy of the /var/log/parman, /var/log/syslog, and /var/log/installer/debug. Should I share these in pastebins or should I open a bug and attach these? | 04:46 |
| Gm4n | bombel: either you aren't configured as a mail server that delivers, or gmail spammed you | 04:46 |
| Linera | its the taskbar | 04:47 |
| Linera | taskbar is a desktop display bar used to launch and monitor applications. | 04:47 |
| basic | pm me | 04:47 |
| Linera | plain english there | 04:47 |
| basic | if u can help | 04:47 |
| PingFloyd | Linera: so add it to the panel | 04:47 |
| Awesome3000 | !pm | 04:47 |
| ardchoille | Linera: This is Linux, the term is different here | 04:47 |
| ubottu | Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can help you, benefit from your questions and answers, and ensure that you're not getting bad advice. Please note that some people find it rude to be sent a PM without being asked for permission to do so first. | 04:47 |
| PingFloyd | Linera: it's just panel plugin | 04:47 |
| basic | ooh | 04:47 |
| Out_Cold | basic, first off, hot plugging hard drives is usually a very bad idea... secondly, formatting a mounted hard drive is not happening. | 04:47 |
| Linera | its not called panel, its called taskbar | 04:47 |

| Linera | taskbar is a desktop display bar used to launch and monitor applications. | 04:48 |
| ardchoille | Awesome3000: I tried to tell him that, he isn't listening | 04:49 |
| Linera | for example: in windows its the bar at the bottom of your desktop | 04:49 |
| bombel | Gm4n, I remember that some years ago I tried sending an email with the "mail" command to my university mail and it worked. Without configuring any mail server. I realized that it is also not in the spam box. What should i do to configure a server mail to deliver emails ? | 04:49 |
| h00k | Linera: I don't believe your terminology is correct, what are you trying to achieve? | 04:49 |
| ardchoille | Linera: This isn't Windows | 04:49 |
| ardchoille | Linera: The item you're referring to is called a Window List, and it resides on the panel. | 04:49 |
| Awesome3000 | In Linux it is called a panel | 04:49 |
| Linera | in mac its the funny bar at the top or bottom of your desktop | 04:49 |
| PingFloyd | Linera: xfce calls it a panel | 04:49 |
| Eneerge | eh | 04:49 |
| IdleOne | Linera: try this please open a terminal and type xfce4-panel & | 04:50 |
| Awesome3000 | In mac called a dock | 04:50 |
| PingFloyd | Linera: call it whatever you want, but you're not going to find unless you look for what they call it | 04:50 |
| Linera | in linux you have your taskbar in two pieces, one top and one bottom | 04:50 |
| Out_Cold | Awesome3000, i think 99.99995% of us get the point | 04:50 |
| IdleOne | Linera: in linux we call those panels | 04:50 |
| PingFloyd | IdleOne: I told him that about 10 minutes ago | 04:50 |
| h00k | Linera: it's not a "Taskbar" as it is in the Windows world. | 04:50 |
| IdleOne | Linera: if you are not going to take our advice then please stop | 04:50 |
| PingFloyd | IdleOne: but he wants to spend time splitting hairs over terminology | 04:50 |
| h00k | Linera: it inherently is different | 04:51 |
| retry | Linera, it's not linux...it's the specific set up in your GUI | 04:51 |
| Eneerge | im trying to install from a cd now instead of a usb and whenever I finish setting everything up for the install (assign partitions, etc), after i click isntall, it reports no errors, but it goes back to setting up partitions. it does this in a never ending loop. i tried changing the location for the bootloader and it still just loops back to partition setup | 04:51 |

| ZartantheKnife | While sound works, the headphone jack does not work properly. No sound comes out of the headphones. Adding this line to the bottom of /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base (it may be called alsa-base.conf on newer distros) may fix this problem: | 04:56 |

| Out_Cold | Linera, on my liux i only have 1 panel... no taskbars... i must be doing something wrong | 04:56 |

| mezquitale | ZartantheKnife, one line | 05:04 |
| mezquitale | ZartantheKnife, that is a known issue, have you checked in the forum or launchpad? | 05:04 |
| h00k | ZartantheKnife: that sounds like a hardware switch, actually, I had a toshiba do that with a bad plug | 05:04 |
| sebsebseb | mezquitale: I know it says one line, but even a good paragraph would be good | 05:04 |
| ZartantheKnife | i installed ubuntu 9.10, now the sound comes out of both the internal speaker and the headphones, even when the headphones jack is plugged in. | 05:04 |
| Vulpes | ,...and you're using Alsa or Pulse for your audio? >>ZarthantheKnife | 05:05 |
| === ben is now known as Guest15389 | ||
| ZartantheKnife | not sure i know if i'm using also or pulse- i have an alsa mixer intalled | 05:05 |
| Oeslian | try unplugging your speakers xD | 05:05 |
| johnny6 | Does anyone here know how to set up an Apache proxy? I think I have it mostly set up, but I need to know how to set it so that it returns the page from http://archive.debian.org/ to the client when it requests http://ftp.us.debian.org/ | 05:05 |
| Out_Cold | ZartantheKnife, than probably using both | 05:05 |
| mezquitale | ZartantheKnife, do you have karmic installed? | 05:05 |
| h00k | ZartantheKnife: I'm going to assume Alsa which is using Pulse | 05:06 |
| ZartantheKnife | i am new to ubuntu i am nto sure what karmic is | 05:06 |
| elnur | !karmic | 05:06 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) is the current release of Ubuntu. Download: http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/ - Release Info: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/910 | 05:06 |
| sebsebseb | !karmic | ZartantheKnife | 05:06 |
| ubottu | ZartantheKnife: please see above | 05:06 |
| ZartantheKnife | if it will solve this issue i will install karmic | 05:06 |
| h00k | johnny6: there is an actual apache channel you could check in -> #apache | 05:06 |
| pauljw | ZartantheKnife, my Dell had the same issue with preinstalled ubuntu, i simply opened volume control and muted the front speakers. the speakers suck anyway, so now i have usb externals and headphones both utilizing the headphone jack for output | 05:06 |
| kinja-sheep | ZartantheKnife: Honda Civic, Honda Prelude, Honda Fit. This is Ubuntu Karmic. | 05:06 |
| elnur | ZartantheKnife, you already have karmic | 05:06 |
| mezquitale | ZartantheKnife, go into a terminal and type lsb_release -a, let us know what you get for codename | 05:06 |
| ZartantheKnife | says karmic | 05:07 |
| johnny6 | h00k: Hm, ok, thanks. | 05:07 |
| Vulpes | Zartantheknife: If other simpler solution doesn't work, try this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto | 05:07 |
| Vulpes | I had the same problem before, and that's how I solved my issue | 05:07 |
| mezquitale | pauljw, you shouldnt have to do that though, you should hear sound from either headphones or speakers, not both, it's a bug if youre hearing sound on both, once you plug in your headphones you should only hear the headphones | 05:08 |
| pauljw | true mezquitale | 05:08 |
| Out_Cold | ZartantheKnife, browse around and get as much info as you can. learn, then come ask us what you can't figure out.. we all have issues but usually they differ from one another slightly | 05:08 |
| h0rnman | ZartantheKnife, did you ever get confirmation about which specific devices are playing sound when you have your headphones plugged in? | 05:09 |
| ZartantheKnife | yes i think its front | 05:09 |
| ZartantheKnife | but now i have information i didn't have b/c i found that link | 05:09 |
| ZartantheKnife | it told me what soundcard i use | 05:09 |
| ZartantheKnife | this could be what i need to fix this crap | 05:09 |
| h0rnman | so, muting front kills sound on the speakers AND headphones, right? | 05:09 |
| Vulpes | ZartantheKnife's problem usually occurrs when the system tries to use sound driver that was made for different hardware... It's easy enough fix, just tedious | 05:10 |

| elnur | Raliuga, if the problem is only with fetching websites and everything is ok with download speed, then the problem is with DNS | 05:15 |
| ZartantheKnife | mezquitale I posted it with that link to pastebin | 05:15 |
| elnur | Raliuga, i have a solution. wait a sec | 05:15 |

| ZartantheKnife | vulpa i posted it to pastebin | 05:15 |

| IdleOne | Guest41678: you can also have a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XChatHowto | 05:16 |
| mezquitale | ZartantheKnife, i was looking at the forums and couldnt find any post with your particular hardware, I suggest you file a bug in launchpad, what type of machine do you have is it a laptop? There is a quick easy fix but is really not the right solution though, you can mute either headphones or speakers using gnome-alsamixer | 05:17 |
| elnur | Raliuga, have you done it like this? http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m24684e44 | 05:17 |
| Raliuga | elnur, yeah xD that was the first thing that i did :P but its weird i was thinking that my wireless was BAD but no, im on the wired one and is the same xD | 05:17 |
| ZartantheKnife | mezquitale it's an hp dv6 | 05:17 |
| Raliuga | emm no, i modified the router dns to use opendns xP | 05:17 |

| Guest41874 | Is this the Ubuntu server or am I in freenode? | 05:20 |
| Raliuga | Ubuntu | 05:20 |

| DrunkenIrony | soreau, I think if that was the case. There wouldn't be firewalls written for it. | 05:23 |
| mezquitale | paddy_melon, if you want an "easy" guide then use "update manager". When the update comes in then install it, if it's still not in then wait for the update. | 05:23 |

| Explore1 | unpugging/replugging dint work, but just checked with skype, it changed from /dev/video0 to /dev/video2, why does it happen so? any idea? | 06:27 |
| fromWinToLin | Is anyone else getting the "rsyslog" error on Karmic when updating packages via Synaptic or the Update Manager? I tried to find information about this online, but my search was fruitless. | 06:27 |
| dft | fromWinToLin: which rsyslog error? | 06:28 |
| arvind_khadri | Explore1, which kernel are you using, see if the kernel supports your hardware | 06:28 |
| fromWinToLin | dft, I'll paste it. | 06:28 |

| samantha_long201 | hey | 06:29 |
| mig_69 | hey | 06:29 |
| meowbuntu | dft its something about swap partion in fstab cant be mounted. i think http://pastebin.ca/1766201 | 06:29 |
| dft | ho....let's go | 06:29 |
| bullgard | Last night I set up GnuPG. GnuPG responded: "The key 1024D/7C52BC42 was successfully validated." What does the letter 'D' mean? | 06:30 |
| Explore1 | arvind_khadri: i used it till now..so it supports | 06:30 |

| ardchoille | !rootkit > charles__ | 06:31 |
| Awesome3000 | Myke1: set the command to just ~ for home | 06:31 |
| fromWinToLin | chetnick, check out the program called Avidemux. It should be in the repositories. | 06:32 |
| meowbuntu | dft is there anything there | 06:32 |
| meowbuntu | i cant find anything | 06:32 |
| chetnick | fromWinToLin: thanks | 06:32 |
| meowbuntu | fromWinToLin, are you new here | 06:32 |
| sayanriju | bullgard, that you are using DSA as algorithm | 06:32 |
| fromWinToLin | meowbuntu, why are you asking? | 06:32 |
| arvind_khadri | Explore1, check which driver skype is using, v4l2 must be used iirc... | 06:33 |
| meowbuntu | your nick and have not seen you b4 | 06:33 |
| dft | meowbuntu: not at first glance | 06:33 |
| bullgard | sayanriju: Thank you very much for your help. | 06:33 |
| sayanriju | bullgard, np | 06:33 |
| fromWinToLin | meowbuntu, an IRC channel with 1,240 users, I'd think it's hard to keep track of every nick. | 06:33 |
| Explore1 | arvind_khadri: i checked with skype, it previously was /dev/video0 but now it chngedto /dev/video1 | 06:34 |
| meowbuntu | dft yea thought so. want to see my fstab. then see my mounted partitions. | 06:34 |
| Explore1 | why does it happen so? | 06:34 |
| hiexpo | Just a tip /and bit of advice for everyone Google is your best friend most of the questions asks in here are in the how too's just type how do I ? on Ubuntu (rev) and 99 % of the time there is a post on it and it save these guys so much time / this is really for if ya can not find it out there on the web and you can read it at your own pace and learn something to benefit yourself / if you read and trial and error you will learn b | 06:34 |
| meowbuntu | fromWinToLin, not a nick like yours but true enough any ho | 06:34 |
| dft | meowbuntu: sure why not | 06:35 |
| dft | although I stepped into this halfway, what was your problem again? | 06:35 |
| elnur | test | 06:35 |
| fromWinToLin | dft, I will simply update any package on Karmic, and it will give me the rsyslog error. Watch. | 06:36 |
| elnur | Can you hear me? | 06:36 |
| Raliuga | elnur -> yeah | 06:36 |
| dft | meowbuntu: you've got some UDMA100/133 devices on a 40 wire cable. you should find an 80wire cable to fix that | 06:36 |
| elnur | Raliuga, nice :) | 06:36 |
| elnur | Raliuga, I can't identify on #mysql and #httpd. :/ | 06:36 |
| meowbuntu | dft i have an error at boot saying something like this. cant mount a partition in fstab. swap ??? | 06:36 |
| Myke1 | Ah i got it Awesome, thank you | 06:36 |
| hiexpo | if you can see you typedso can eveyone else be patient ask your question and wait patienly | 06:36 |
| dft | meowbuntu: didyou just installthis machine? | 06:37 |
| meowbuntu | whats the terminal command for showing full info of mounted partitions | 06:37 |
| * dft thinks it's time for a new kbd | 06:37 | |
| dft | df -h | 06:37 |
| jellow | meowbuntu: mount | 06:37 |
| meowbuntu | dft no its got 2 os on one hdd | 06:37 |
| elnur | Raliuga, /msg nickserv help doesnt respond to me ;/ | 06:38 |
| meowbuntu | ubuntu studio (using now) and kubuntu | 06:38 |
| Raliuga | @whois elnur | 06:38 |

| objorn | i was playing a game, but it was freezing up at the end so i switched to a tty screen and killed the game, when i returned to the desktop, the reolution was terrible. how do you fix this? | 06:41 |
| meowbuntu | dft jellow here is info its in 3 parts hopefully you can help me work things out. http://pastebin.ca/1766213 | 06:41 |
| numberGrey | I currently use a laptop connected to an external monitor and I receive brief flashes on the external monitor at what would be seemingly random times. Has anyone heard or this problem or have an idea what it might be? | 06:42 |
| egaudet | Where are the permissions for the panels? I am unable to add/delete any app launcher from my top panel | 06:42 |
| dft | meowbuntu: your swap has been disabled in fstab | 06:43 |
| meowbuntu | objorn, first whats the game. 2 is it a linux game or a windows in wine | 06:43 |
| EastDallas | numberGrey: are you using compiz? | 06:43 |
| numberGrey | I don't have desktop effects enabled | 06:43 |
| meowbuntu | ok hold on | 06:43 |
| numberGrey | EastDallas: no | 06:43 |
| objorn | meowbuntu: urban terror | 06:43 |
| objorn | that's a linux game | 06:44 |
| objorn | based on the quake 3 engine | 06:44 |
| loveyosmile | gtk+? | 06:44 |
| numberGrey | EastDallas: The time between flashes could be 30 seconds or many minutes | 06:44 |
| meowbuntu | objorn, i dont know start game again if it happens again come back | 06:45 |
| loveyosmile | somebody care the security of linux? | 06:45 |
| jellow | numberGrey: have you disabled screen saver ? | 06:45 |
| meowbuntu | dft can you work out where swap is | 06:45 |
| objorn | meowbuntu: the problem is that i can't exit the game without manually shutting it off | 06:45 |
| objorn | i.e. kill -9 | 06:45 |
| objorn | which results in this | 06:45 |
| raven | where exactly are the printer/scanner settings saved? | 06:46 |
| objorn | but it'snot just urban terror, i also have this problem with open arena | 06:46 |
| fromWinToLin | Here is the error message I receive after ANY update with Synaptic or Update Manager on Karmic: E: rsyslog: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 | 06:46 |
| EastDallas | numberGrey: I had a similar problem and had to uncheck 'Undirect Fullscreen Windows' under General settings in CompizConfig Settings Manager. Even if you have desktop effects disabled, you're still using compiz on some level unless you've replaced it with something else. | 06:46 |
| objorn | can you not mess with your screen resolution on the fly like the game can? | 06:46 |
| meowbuntu | dft after looking in gparted i still see that swap is not ellocated either i will have to boot live cd and fix it i think | 06:47 |
| Geoffrey2 | is there a way to restart the flash...daemon, or whatever it is...? | 06:47 |
| objorn | ah, fixed it | 06:47 |
| soreau | EastDallas: No settings in ccsm will have any effect if desktop effects are disabled. You either have compiz running or you don't, there's no in-between | 06:47 |
| stu__ | hey how do i change the screen resolution via command line | 06:47 |
| objorn | system > preferences > display | 06:47 |
| raven | where exactly are the printer/scanner settings saved? | 06:47 |
| numberGrey | EastDallas: ok I have to install the config manager and will see how that works | 06:47 |
| stu__ | i've set it really low, and now the desktop does not fit the display window, thus i cannot 'apply' any changes | 06:48 |
| Geoffrey2 | I'm trying to get my audio back without having to reboot.... | 06:48 |
| dft | meowbuntu: goodluck, I'm heading into silent running mode | 06:48 |
| meowbuntu | how do i find uuid of all my partitions | 06:49 |
| fromWinToLin | meowbuntu, try: ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/ | less | 06:50 |
| EastDallas | soreau: disable desktop effects and then pkill compiz....Then get back with me after you have to reboot. | 06:50 |
| numberGrey | EastDallas: Do I need to restart X before the compiz changes take effect? | 06:50 |
| Billiard | meowbuntu: could try sudo blkid | 06:50 |
| fromWinToLin | meowbuntu, press "Q" to exit the "less viewer". | 06:50 |
| EastDallas | numberGrey: no | 06:50 |
| meowbuntu | fromWinToLin, that givs uuid but not hdd partitions info | 06:50 |
| numberGrey | hmm, that didnt seem to work I just saw a flash | 06:51 |
| EastDallas | numberGrey: it was worth a shot...sorry | 06:51 |
| soreau | EastDallas: 1) Setting desktop effects to None will start metacit yand thus pkill compiz will effectively do nothing 2) I don't use ubuntu 3) Don't give bad advice | 06:51 |
| meowbuntu | Billiard, sudo blkid is not showing all partitions | 06:51 |
| meowbuntu | how do i mount /dev/sda5 | 06:52 |
| fromWinToLin | meowbuntu, it will show you what device it is linked too. For example: 652485038f348ac3934 --> ../../sdb4 | 06:52 |
| EastDallas | soreau: I just did what I told you to do yesterday, and I have desktop effects disabled. I was unable to do anything and had to log out. | 06:52 |
| Billiard | meowbuntu: using the mount command "sudo mount /dev/sda5 mountpoint" | 06:52 |
| soreau | EastDallas: Well you did it wrong | 06:53 |
| numberGrey | hmm, anyone else have any ideas what the problem could be? I cant come up with anything that correlates to the flickering. | 06:53 |
| soreau | numberGrey: It's probably a graphics driver issue. Which one are you using? | 06:53 |
| EastDallas | soreau: whatever, I was just offering up something that helped me with a flicker problem a while back. What I told him to do certainly wouldn't cause any harm. | 06:54 |
| numberGrey | its just a brief flicker once every couple of minutes | 06:54 |
| numberGrey | soreau: hmm I have to check, one of the nvidia drivers, not sure the number | 06:54 |
| hiexpo | is it when you put a video infull screen | 06:54 |
| fromWinToLin | numberGrey, might be unrelated, but in my case, overheating of the GPU was the cause of random flickers on my screen. | 06:54 |
| numberGrey | fromWinToLin: yeah this is cheaper laptop and is a little hot to touch right now. | 06:55 |
| soreau | numberGrey: Ok, so you're using nvidia's proprietary blob. I suspect that is the problem. The only thing you can do is try a different version of their driver | 06:55 |
| numberGrey | soreau: yeah I had to play with a few of them to get it working and updates not too long ago caused crashing so I had to disable desktop effects. | 06:55 |
| fromWinToLin | numberGrey, in a terminal (or use the menu shortcut if you prefer) type: nvidia-settings, and there should be a section for Temperature (or Thermal). | 06:55 |
| meowbuntu | fromWinToLin, i know but its not showing unmounted partition info | 06:56 |
| egaudet | I cannot modify my gnome panels. Trying to add/delete/remove any app launcher or panel does nothing | 06:56 |
| fromWinToLin | numberGrey, I do know Compiz (and even Desktop Effects in KDE) will bump the GPU temps a significant amount, espcially under heavy load. | 06:56 |
| numberGrey | 80c | 06:56 |
| fromWinToLin | HOLY! | 06:56 |
| soreau | numberGrey: If you installed the binary driver from their site (the .run file) then you have to reinstall it every kernel update for 3D to continue working | 06:56 |
| fromWinToLin | On IDLE? | 06:56 |
| Billiard | meowbuntu: fromWinToLin's method of listing the UUID's will list all including unmounted partitions | 06:57 |
| numberGrey | wow I think we found the problem | 06:57 |
| fromWinToLin | numberGrey, what Nvidia GPU is it? | 06:58 |
| soreau | numberGrey: You might want to consider enabling power management if the driver gives you that options | 06:58 |
| numberGrey | hmm, geforce 8200m | 06:58 |
| fromWinToLin | <--- 40c on idle. | 06:58 |
| fromWinToLin | numberGrey, does the random flickering begin soon after you boot the laptop (after having it powered off for a long time), or does it take a while for it to start occuring? | 06:59 |
| numberGrey | hmm, I would assume after a while because It doesn't happen all the time | 07:00 |
| numberGrey | i never really tracked it too much | 07:00 |
| numberGrey | what is the simplest way to update the drivers? | 07:00 |
| soreau | numberGrey: I believe that card has the powermizer feature you can enable | 07:00 |
| fromWinToLin | numberGrey, yeah, hard to figure out the source of the problem in these types of situations. | 07:00 |
| numberGrey | it is enabled | 07:00 |
| meowbuntu | hi my dev/sda5 wont mount says its not there | 07:01 |
| Trek | anyone know why my GPU would be running at 47 C while idling> | 07:01 |
| meowbuntu | i need to fix this if i can | 07:02 |
| soreau | meowbuntu: What is telling you it's not there? | 07:02 |
| devendra | is there any talking dictionary for ubuntu like oxford in windows ? this is the only thing which force me to boot shitty winblows. | 07:02 |
| fromWinToLin | numberGrey, depends how you installed the drivers. Did you use the Hardware Drivers (jockey-gtk) program to install the restricted Nvidia driver? | 07:02 |
| meowbuntu | not in fstab but it is | 07:02 |
| Trek | !language | deventra | 07:02 |
| ubottu | deventra: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 07:02 |
| Billiard | Trek: my laptop idles at 45, seems normal to me | 07:03 |
| Trek | mine's idling at 49 C and CPU cores are at 45C. that normal? | 07:03 |
| meowbuntu | soreau, i am having a problem swap is not being mounted from boot so it says | 07:03 |
| Billiard | meowbuntu: which method did you use to mount it, what was the exact error message | 07:03 |
| numberGrey | hmm, it was many months ago, and I remember trying a few diff methods. One was just running the nvidia supplied installer (if there even is one), I also remember trying to use a simple command line tool provided by someone. Memory is foggy. | 07:03 |
| meowbuntu | i need to mount it now so i can get uuid of it | 07:03 |
| fromWinToLin | Trek, that's fine for a laptop. Laptop's don't exactly have the best cooling, in such a small crammed place. | 07:04 |
| devendra | Trek, sorry buddy . I apologize . | 07:04 |
| Billiard | meowbuntu: you dont need to mount it to get the UUID | 07:04 |
| numberGrey | ahah I remember one solution causing many problems. It took a few days just to get things working. | 07:04 |
| meowbuntu | sudo mount /dev/sda5 | 07:04 |
| meowbuntu | mount: can't find /dev/sda5 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab | 07:04 |
| Billiard | meowbuntu: you need to specify the mountpoint if it isnt in your fstab | 07:04 |
| numberGrey | I recently started writing my processes for settings things up because of such problems | 07:04 |
| Trek | as for my desktop, now, it idles at maybe 40-45C, and I have the case opened because there's no exhaust fans on the case. | 07:05 |
| Trek | is that normal for CPU idling on a Desktop? | 07:05 |
| fromWinToLin | numberGrey, hm, I don't want to lead you to into the wrong direction. Hopefully someone else has more knowledge about this. For now, can you run: jockey-gtk | 07:05 |
| fromWinToLin | Trek, yeah, that's fine too. | 07:05 |
| Billiard | meowbuntu: if its swap use swapon not mount | 07:05 |
| meowbuntu | Billiard, sudo swapon /dev/sda5 | 07:06 |
| meowbuntu | swapon: /dev/sda5: read swap header failed: Invalid argument | 07:06 |
| Trek | alright, thanks Billiard and fromWinToLin, i just want to make sure my systems don't overheat and die | 07:07 |
| Billiard | meowbuntu: looks like its not a valid swap partition | 07:07 |
| Myke1 | Back with another question... i looked for this one and cant find it. Can you put a shortcut on the desktop to lock your screen? | 07:07 |
| Xase | Hello | 07:07 |
| numberGrey | is there a way to add drivers to jockey-gtk so I can easily test between diff versions? | 07:08 |
| Xase | I somehow managed to get a button that activates gnome universal access preferences, stuck to the top panel... | 07:08 |
| Xase | It's not an applet... it's a running process... any idea? | 07:09 |
| soreau | numberGrey: You have to install the -alias package for each. See the output of 'apt-cache search | grep alias' | 07:09 |
| Trek | Xase, kill the process | 07:09 |
| fromWinToLin | numberGrey, I'm not really sure how jockey-gtk works. It seems to detect if you have any devices that have proprietary drivers available, and then downloads/installs them if you desire. | 07:09 |
| Xase | ... I don't know its name | 07:09 |
| fromWinToLin | numberGrey, does it show you that the Nvidia restricted driver is activated? | 07:10 |
| numberGrey | yes | 07:10 |
| rww | Xase: System -> Preferences -> Assistive Technologies, turn off anything on in there or in the Keyboard Accessibility and Mouse Accessibility screens it links to. | 07:10 |
| fromWinToLin | numberGrey, which version? | 07:11 |
| Balsaq | is 9.10 stable yet | 07:11 |
| numberGrey | 180 | 07:11 |
| DrMrHorse | lol | 07:11 |
| fromWinToLin | numberGrey, does it list a newer version that you can activate? | 07:12 |
| Xase | Thanks rvw :D | 07:12 |
| Myrtti | Balsaq: well, it was published in october as such ;-) | 07:12 |
| Xase | And you as well Trek | 07:12 |
| numberGrey | soreau: apt-cache search errors with "E: You must give exactly one pattern" | 07:12 |
| numberGrey | fromWinToLin: no | 07:12 |
| Xase | Also, if bluetooth is unchecked in my startup applications, how is there still a root process started every time I start up? | 07:12 |
| Trek | no problem, Xase | 07:12 |
| Trek | Balsaq, define stable | 07:13 |
| Balsaq | i haer peole griping about 910 and not about 904 | 07:13 |
| sommmiing | hello | 07:13 |
| fromWinToLin | numberGrey, well, if you're willing to go the "hard way", you can deactivate the 180 driver, reboot, then download the 190.53 driver from Nvidia's web site, install it, then reboot. I have only done this on openSUSE, not Ubuntu. Not sure how it's done in Ubuntu if you go the route of Nvidia's .run installer. | 07:13 |
| soreau | numberGrey: Oh yea, it's supposed to be apt-cache search nvidia|grep alias | 07:14 |
| Xase | ... well there are several gripes I have about 9.10, but I've worked around them to my best ability ^-^ | 07:14 |
| Myrtti | Balsaq: I hear people griping about 904 and not about 410 | 07:14 |
| DrMrHorse | Balsaq: seem to be true. im on 9.04 | 07:14 |
| sommmiing | Im having problems locating my network manager im using ubuntu 9.01 | 07:14 |
| Myrtti | Balsaq: there's always griping | 07:14 |
| Xase | ... I still have 5.06 discs... | 07:14 |
| Xase | 80 of them to be exact. | 07:14 |
| Trek | Balsaq: there's always issues with every distro | 07:14 |
| Balsaq | i guess that means you believe its stable | 07:14 |
| Xase | Does Ubuntu have a recycle program? | 07:14 |
| Trek | and wow, Xase | 07:14 |
| numberGrey | nvidia-173-modaliases - Modaliases for the NVIDIA binary X.Org driver | 07:14 |
| numberGrey | nvidia-180-modaliases - Modaliases for the NVIDIA binary X.Org driver | 07:14 |

| FloodBot1 | numberGrey: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 07:14 |
| chetnick | me tooo.... 9.04 ... i installed 9.10 on laptop .. and not impressed as i was with 9.04 | 07:14 |
| numberGrey | sorry | 07:14 |
| Trek | Xase, I'll take the CDs. I can use them on the old stuff | 07:14 |
| Xase | I gave them out, and then people loved them, and retunred them so I could share with more people... | 07:14 |
| Trek | !paste | numberGrey | 07:14 |

| Balsaq | when i installed xub 904 everything worked immediately so i am hestant to upgrade | 07:15 |
| Xase | I'll have to find them, I just fumagated, and everything is boxed. | 07:15 |
| sommmiing | can someone please help me?> | 07:15 |
| fromWinToLin | Balsaq, I learned that if you're happy with Jaunty, don't "upgrade" to Karmic. | 07:15 |
| * DrMrHorse is eagerly awaiting lucid | 07:15 | |
| Trek | Balsaq: I have 9.04, and I refuse to go to 9.10 because I tested using a LiveCD, and it didn't work for me | 07:15 |
| Trek | !ask | sommmiing | 07:15 |
| chetnick | Balsaq: 9.04 was big improvement ... it was blazing fast comparing to 8.04 and 8.1 | 07:15 |
| ubottu | sommmiing: 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. :-) | 07:15 |
| Balsaq | many people have issues with 910 | 07:15 |
| numberGrey | yeah I remember going the nvidia route but I cant remember which one caused me the most trouble | 07:15 |
| Balsaq | guess ill stay put | 07:15 |
| numberGrey | one ended in having to do a clean install | 07:16 |
| DrMrHorse | 9.04 is an awesome os | 07:16 |
| chetnick | me too .. | 07:16 |
| sommmiing | <sommmiing> Im having problems locating my network manager im using ubuntu 9.10 | 07:16 |
| Balsaq | so will i then lose support for 904 | 07:16 |
| intangir | how do i find out what the last upgrades i got were? from update-manager? | 07:16 |
| Xase | 9.04 is pretty swank =D | 07:16 |
| intangir | it had some updates for pulse and i wanted to see what it was | 07:16 |
| fromWinToLin | Balsaq, new boot loader, ugly, stripped-down GDM, ugly Grub2 (without any noticeable benefits to the end-user), and even compability problems with certain hardware on laptops/netbooks. | 07:16 |
| Trek | Balsaq, 9.04 is supported into next year | 07:16 |
| Tartaros | why is it that sometimes I need to restart nm-applet for it's icon to show properly? | 07:16 |
| sebsebseb | Balsaq: stay with 9.04 for now I guess. Then clean install when Lucid comes out, at the end of April, if you want Ext4 file system and Grub 2 without issues, but those aren't really needed. Or you can try upgrading through 9.10. 9.04 will run out of support in October | 07:16 |
| chetnick | sommmiing: try issuing NetworkManager command at terminal | 07:16 |
| rww | Balsaq, as a non-LTS, is supported for 18 months from release, so until October 2010. | 07:16 |
| Balsaq | 904 if 904 runs out and i keep it what will happen | 07:17 |
| rww | Balsaq: 9.04, as ** | 07:17 |
| Student | Can't wait for 10.04 to come out. | 07:17 |
| sommmiing | chetnick what command are u refering to? | 07:17 |
| Trek | !offtopic | Student | 07:17 |
| ubottu | Student: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 07:17 |
| chetnick | sommmiing: i am refering to NetworkManager command. | 07:17 |
| sebsebseb | Balsaq: once support is over you won't get security updates for it from the repos anymore | 07:17 |
| chetnick | sommmiing: you said you dont see network manager? | 07:17 |
| rww | Balsaq: You don't get security updates and upgrading becomes somewhat more difficult when the release's files are removed from update mirrors. | 07:17 |
| Trek | chetnick: i think he just needs to know how to figure out what network manager he's uisng | 07:17 |
| Xase | So how to kill bluetooth from starting altogether? | 07:18 |
| Balsaq | so will that make me vulnerable to hackers and virus? | 07:18 |
| Trek | chetnick: (QUOTE) <sommmiing> Im having problems locating my network manager im using ubuntu 9.10 | 07:18 |
| Tartaros | maybe he's having the same problem like me - not seeing the nm-applet icon | 07:18 |
| fromWinToLin | numberGrey, if you get problems with the Nvidia driver, you can boot into recovery mode, and change a single line in /etc/X11/xorg.conf Just change Driver "nvidia" to Driver "nv" | 07:18 |
| sebsebseb | Balsaq: possibly yes (and the correct term is crackers or blackhat) | 07:18 |
| chetnick | Trek: so i was thinking maybe its not running.... | 07:18 |
| numberGrey | fromWinToLin: what does that actually do? | 07:18 |
| sommmiing | chetnick i used nm-applet it gives me an error soming about: could not aquire the session service as it is already taken | 07:18 |
| Balsaq | never heard of crackers or blckhat...but ok | 07:18 |
| Balsaq | so my days are numbered with 904...wow it was the best | 07:19 |
| Balsaq | beter than xp pro | 07:19 |
| Xase | Balsaq: A cracker is a forceful malicious hacker, same with a blackhat which is just another terminology. | 07:19 |
| user123 | anyone knows how to transfer files into virtualbox? | 07:19 |
| sebsebseb | Balsaq: it's a good release yes, but many would say 8.10 was the best or earlier. | 07:19 |
| fromWinToLin | numberGrey, Ubuntu will use the open source "nv" driver, instead of the "nvidia" driver. | 07:19 |
| Tartaros | Balsaq: "hacker" is too general a term, so if you mean the bad ones you say blackhats :) | 07:19 |
| Xase | Hackers is a misused term... quite honestly, I wanna slap Symantec everytime I see their norton commercials. | 07:19 |
| Balsaq | ohh i see | 07:19 |
| sommmiing | can anyone help me with the network manager issu? | 07:20 |
| Trek | chetnick: if he had no network manager he wouldn't be here in the chat | 07:20 |
| sebsebseb | plus there's that film Hackers | 07:20 |
| user123 | anyone knows how to transfer files into virtualbox? | 07:20 |
| numberGrey | i see, ok thanks | 07:20 |
| Tartaros | sommmiing: have you tried first killall nm-applet and then nm-applet again? | 07:20 |
| Balsaq | i wonder if i can keep 904 and do the updates in the terminal | 07:20 |
| Xase | user123, set up a shared folder. | 07:20 |
| user123 | Xase, how?? :S | 07:20 |
| jlebar | I'm having some difficulty getting ld to recognize libraries in /usr/local/lib. I added /usr/local/lib to my /etc/ld.so.conf, and I ran ldconfig. Is there anything else I need to do? | 07:20 |
| Xase | In the virtual machine's properties. | 07:21 |
| Xase | Tell it what folder to share. | 07:21 |
| Xase | And then it will be mapped as a network share in the virtual guest | 07:21 |
| Tartaros | Trek: you don't really need networkmanager if all you do is dhcp using your only interface | 07:21 |
| fromWinToLin | numberGrey, just be sure you know how to navigate in a recovery terminal, and use a text editor, like nano. (sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf) | 07:21 |
| sebsebseb | Balsaq: you could actsauly upgrade 9.04 yourself once support runs out, if you know what needs to be updated, but that's not really recommended, and then you can't get offical help for it here. | 07:21 |
| user123 | Xase, I already did it, but where can I look inside VB? | 07:22 |
| Xase | sebsebseb: I didn't know I was an officiated helper ;) | 07:22 |
| Xase | You set up the share user123? | 07:22 |
| pjotr | user123, virtualbox or virtualbox-ose? | 07:22 |
| sommmiing | Tartaros | 07:22 |
| Xase | What is the guest os? | 07:22 |
| sebsebseb | Xase: were not, but it's an offical channel | 07:22 |
| sommmiing | Tartaros: where do i find the icon for network manager | 07:22 |
| sommmiing | maybe it's wrking but i just cnat find it | 07:22 |
| Tartaros | sommmiing: it should be in the notification applet | 07:23 |
| fromWinToLin | numberGrey, so yeah. Seems like you're running a bit hot. You can try using the latest drivers from Nvidia's web site (they have instructions for Linux users), and also do some tests, such as take note of how long it takes to see the flickering problem after a cold boot. If you install the proprietary driver from their web site, you need to re-install it after every kernel update. | 07:23 |
| sebsebseb | Balsaq: 9.10 doesn't really offer any proper advantage over9 .04, unless for example people need 9.10 to fix a hardware issue | 07:23 |
| user123 | Xase, win7 | 07:23 |
| numberGrey | fromWinToLin: thanks, I have done this many times before it just comes many months in between to I always forget how | 07:23 |
| Xase | Should appear under Network | 07:23 |
| numberGrey | driver changes that is | 07:23 |
| sommmiing | Tartaros: still cant see it | 07:23 |
| Xase | network and sharing center user123 | 07:23 |
| Balsaq | i want to but an emachine laptop with a 2.2 celeron and intel 4500m graphics i hope it is not one that has the compatibilty issue | 07:24 |
| sommmiing | where is the notification applet (sorry i'm a real newbie) | 07:24 |
| numberGrey | yeah I will do this tomorrow (and make sure to write the steps down for future reference), thanks for the help fromWinToLin | 07:24 |
| sebsebseb | Balsaq: yes that compatability issue is fixed in 9.10 | 07:24 |
| Balsaq | cool | 07:24 |
| Tartaros | sommmiing: well do you have the notification applet on your panel? it should show all kind of icons, like one for sound volume, one for pidgin/empathy, one for display settings etc. | 07:24 |
| sebsebseb | Balsaq: is that why you want to upgrade? | 07:25 |
| Tartaros | sommmiing: try to go thru the applets that it shows you for adding on the panels... | 07:25 |
| Balsaq | when i get it i will make my w7 back up disks and then wipe it clean w/buntu | 07:25 |
| sommmiing | Tartaros: oh ok, it doesnt show there. | 07:25 |
| fromWinToLin | numberGrey, I try. But hopefully you can find a solid solution as well. | 07:25 |
| fromWinToLin | numberGrey, best of luck. | 07:25 |
| Balsaq | i dont want to upgrade just waiting until the community says 910 is good | 07:25 |
| sebsebseb | Balsaq: hrm | 07:25 |
| Tartaros | sommmiing: well then try "killall nm-applet", then "sudo service NetworkManager --full-restart" and then "nm-applet&disown" | 07:26 |
| Balsaq | if everyone liked 910 as mjch as 904 i would do it' | 07:26 |
| numberGrey | fromWinToLin: The thing is, I have gotten to work before, just some where down the line with updates things started acting a little funny, now its becoming a problem and its time to fix it | 07:26 |
| Balsaq | but i notice most people agree 904 is best and i have seen this for months | 07:26 |
| Xase | The only thing really sheisty about 9.10 imho is the new gdm from Gnome =/ | 07:26 |
| Xase | But GDM2Setup takes care of that a bit. | 07:26 |
| Balsaq | regardless i just hope emachines can accept buntu | 07:26 |
| sebsebseb | Balsaq: well some will say try and upgrade now, others will say on 9.04, and others will say clean install 9.10 if you want to try it. and I will say it's ok to upgrade to 9.10, 9.04 Ext3 installs won't get upgraded to Ext4, and no Grub 2 on upgrade, but those aren't needed anyway. Then if the upgrade goes wrong, you can just re install. As long as you got data some where else. | 07:27 |
| sommmiing | Tartaros: networkmanager: unrecognized service | 07:27 |
| Xase | Balsaq: i hope so too, I'm getting a laptop with the same graphics card. | 07:27 |
| Tartaros | sommmiing: oh sorry it's "network-manager" | 07:27 |
| sebsebseb | Balsaq: first, but wasn't clear since I missed a word or two I just seen that. well some will say try and upgrade now, others will stay stay on 9.04, and others will say clean install 9.10 if you want to try it | 07:28 |
| timboy | anyone have a macbook pro aluminum using ubuntu on it? | 07:28 |
| sebsebseb | bit | 07:28 |
| meowbuntu | Billiard, it is a valid swap partition but its not regestering with my os in fstab it says swap was on /dev/sda5 at install | 07:28 |
| user123 | Xase, then, where should I look? I can't find anything | 07:28 |
| Balsaq | see the computers i have buntu now all have small dedicated nvidia cards...i've never tried buntu on those built in intel 4500m's | 07:28 |
| Balsaq | seems like dell w/nvidia works great with buntu | 07:28 |
| Xase | user123 search windows for the name of the folder... it should appear in the networked devices and computers area if I'm not mistaken. | 07:28 |
| IdleOne | timboy: please ask a more detailed question | 07:28 |
| Billiard | meowbuntu: how do you know it is a valid swap partition, if it errors on mount, i would say it is not | 07:29 |
| sebsebseb | Balsaq: some will say.... etc silly typeos. Nivida works well with Desktop Linux, if you want to try with an Intel graphics card, makes sense put 9.10 on clean install | 07:29 |
| timboy | IdleOne, just wondering what people thought about ubuntu working on them if multitouch works etc. I'm thinking of getting one | 07:29 |
| meowbuntu | hold on | 07:29 |
| sommmiing | Tartaros: the script your attemping to invoke hav been converted to an upstart job but ---fullrestart is not supported | 07:29 |
| IdleOne | timboy: maybe ask in #ubuntu-ppc | 07:29 |
| Xase | timboy... It's not that the trackpad is multitouch... it's also that Macbooks have it in their firmware | 07:30 |
| Tartaros | sommmiing: its --full-restart | 07:30 |
| Xase | IdleOne: bad advice. | 07:30 |
| meowbuntu | billard can i pm you | 07:30 |
| Xase | New macbooks have intel | 07:30 |
| timboy | IdleOne, they're pentium not ppc | 07:30 |
| Tartaros | sommmiing: and ignore the "been converted to upstart" part | 07:30 |
| Xase | Not pentium either timboy. | 07:30 |
| IdleOne | Xase: timboy shows how much I know about mac :/ | 07:30 |
| Xase | X86 and X64 to be more exact :D | 07:30 |
| Xase | Old macs are PPC | 07:30 |
| meowbuntu | Billiard, can i pm you | 07:30 |
| Xase | :o | 07:30 |
| Xase | PS3 is PPC =D | 07:31 |
| wicker | Old macs are PP | 07:31 |
| Billiard | meowbuntu: sure | 07:31 |
| Xase | But no one is ever around to help me install ubuntu on it in ubuntu-ppc | 07:31 |
| timboy | Xase, what do you mean in their firmware? you mean that two finger down gesture is literally mapped as scroll wheel down? | 07:31 |
| Xase | Well pretty much, but the os tells the pad to interpret it as such. | 07:32 |
| Xase | I mean... I hear tell of Android incorporating multi-touch via modified versions... So I don't see if you had a modified driver for ubuntu, why it wouldn't work | 07:32 |
| Xase | to be specific a modified driver for linux itself. | 07:32 |
| Xase | To say if there is one, I can't... but there may already be timboy. | 07:33 |
| timboy | ok cool thx i'll google more | 07:33 |
| sommmiing | Tartaros: after all the commands what should happend? | 07:34 |
| Tartaros | the icon should be there :) | 07:35 |
| Xase | BRB | 07:36 |
| Xase | Figured out what causes the accessibility thing to come up... and now know how to fix it ^^ | 07:37 |

| Tartaros | fffej: what about aptitude? | 07:52 |
| fffej | tartaros: not sure what you mean? The GUI? That doesn't help - I can't resolve the packages in that either | 07:52 |
| Tartaros | fffej: what packages exactly? | 07:53 |
| fffej | tartaros: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d79a442 contains the output of apt-get upgrade | 07:53 |
| Tartaros | fffej: also, do you only have default repositories enabled? | 07:53 |

| fffej | idleone: yes - same errors as http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m1315a6c4 | 07:55 |
| meowbuntu | any ideas | 07:56 |
| Tartaros | fffej: how about apt-get clean | 07:56 |
| iflema | fffej have you pinned any applications? | 07:56 |
| Tartaros | (and then update upgrade again) | 07:56 |

| IdleOne | fffej: I remember a trick about deleting the pre-installation script but don't remember where they are located | 07:57 |

| koshari | \sharon_ generally as a media player | 07:58 |
| meowbuntu | IdleOne, you should know instead of using apt-get. its better to use aptitude http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2007/08/12/dont-apt-get-aptitude/ | 07:58 |
| iflema | sharon_ linux'll go on a watch.... because one can..... | 07:58 |
| meowbuntu | appitude does more than apt-get and imho is way better everyone should use it. http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2007/08/12/dont-apt-get-aptitude/ | 07:59 |
| Tartaros | meowbuntu: well while we're at it, is it possible to have aptitude automatically install both recommends and suggests? | 07:59 |
| sharon_ | what makes linux better than sony's os | 07:59 |
| meowbuntu | Tartaros, yes aptitude does more than apt-get | 08:00 |
| koshari | sharon_ its open to begin with | 08:00 |
| Tartaros | or at least, handle suggests somewhat automatically (i.e. not uninstall them when they're on auto, but still suggested but something) | 08:00 |

| sharon_ | ive had it for a month | 08:01 |
| fffej | meowbuntu: i've been playing around for the last year or so | 08:02 |
| Tartaros | fffej: yes but aptitude should automatically try to resolve the situation by some alternative version or something | 08:02 |

| fffej | tartaros: no luck removing it - fails with depenedency issues | 08:04 |
| Tartaros | fffej: basically in aptitude you do - on the libc, then you press e to see the solutions, and then you list them using ,. it will suggest reinstalling something and or downgrading and or removing etc just try it | 08:05 |
| meowbuntu | sharon_, do you know what ubottu is???? | 08:05 |
| IdleOne | sharon_: it's not that the bot doesn't like you just that ubuntu-ps3 is not supported here | 08:05 |
| sharon_ | ok sorry | 08:05 |

| meowbuntu | fffej, how easy do you find ubuntu | 08:06 |
| dandaman | is this the # to ask ubuntu netbook remix questions? | 08:08 |
| meowbuntu | Tartaros, meh fffej was to quick to run and not listen | 08:08 |
| Tartaros | yeah | 08:08 |
| James8 | hello all | 08:08 |
| jellow | unmet dependencies is enough for anyone to turn and run =/ | 08:08 |
| elita | hiya all, Ijust installed ubuntu-netbook-extensions into my normal 9.10 setup and I don't like the way GNOME now comes up, but I can't seem to revert to the normal/standard X setup :( | 08:09 |
| meowbuntu | !ask | dandaman | 08:09 |
| ubottu | dandaman: 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. :-) | 08:09 |
| Tartaros | dandaman: yeah ask away, worst that can happen is that you dont get your answer :) | 08:09 |
| sharon_ | i have this dvd that is not being read | 08:09 |
| Tartaros | elita: what part of it don't you like? | 08:09 |
| Myrtti | sharon_: have you looked at the links you've been given? what steps have you done so far to make it work? | 08:09 |
| Tartaros | elita: also have you tried just uninstalling them again? | 08:10 |
| elita | Tartaros, the whole single-window / left-hand-application-selector thing | 08:10 |
| dandaman | so i just installed ubuntu netbook remix on my asus EEE PC(1005HAB) and it looks like i need to install some drivers or something for the graphics card, how would i go about doing that? | 08:10 |
| elita | Tartaros, yes, I did try apt-get remove but it stayed the same. | 08:10 |
| sharon_ | libdvdcss | 08:10 |
| Tartaros | elita: also tried rebooting/relogging? | 08:10 |
| elita | this is on an Acer Aspire one pro (1024x600 display) | 08:10 |
| elita | Tartaros, several times. | 08:10 |
| meowbuntu | sharon_, read by what | 08:10 |
| elita | Tartaros, even tries remaking the user account | 08:11 |
| sharon_ | wen i put the dvd in nothing happens | 08:11 |

| sharon_ | smp | 08:12 |
| meowbuntu | see how easy things are with inxi | 08:12 |
| Myrtti | meowbuntu: please use pastebin :-( | 08:12 |
| meowbuntu | Myrtti, inxi is a good app to post basic info for getting help directly on irc. | 08:13 |
| sharon_ | the name of the dvd dose not show up when i go to computer | 08:13 |
| Myrtti | meowbuntu: and spamming the channel, I see | 08:13 |
| meowbuntu | so everyone can see what i have as i got a sound problem | 08:13 |
| IdleOne | meowbuntu: flooding the channel with inxi is a good way to get the ops bothered and eject you | 08:13 |
| meowbuntu | Myrtti, it is not spamming i have uused it for 6-8 minths and you are one of 5 ppl cpmplaining | 08:14 |
| IdleOne | !paste | meowbuntu | 08:14 |

| meowbuntu | yes flooding with it. but if i using it to show info its ok | 08:14 |
| meowbuntu | hi audio cds and youtube videos and sound is jumpy-wobbly and sounds like the chipmunks any ideas ??? | 08:14 |
| IdleOne | meowbuntu: no it is not. flooding is flooding. please use a pastebin | 08:14 |
| meowbuntu | man what has happened to this channel over the past few weeks | 08:15 |
| IdleOne | the pastebin rule has been around for more then 4 years | 08:15 |
| IdleOne | in this channel | 08:15 |
| meowbuntu | i know that | 08:15 |
| meowbuntu | and inxi as i said is not really flooding ok | 08:16 |
| IdleOne | ok so why do you think you should be allowed to break the rule because it suits you | 08:16 |
| Tartaros | elita: well isn't it just a special launcher on the desktop, and windows being maximalised? | 08:16 |
| meowbuntu | hi audio cds and youtube videos and sound is jumpy-wobbly and sounds like the chipmunks any ideas ??? | 08:16 |
| elita | Tartaros, I think so, though the desktop also lacks the normal main menu | 08:16 |
| Myrtti | meowbuntu: please don't repeat | 08:16 |
| meowbuntu | any ideas on my problem | 08:16 |
| IdleOne | Myrtti: :) | 08:16 |
| elita | Tartaros, so, even if I kill the launcher in the startup, when it gets in I can't then launch anything | 08:16 |
| Tartaros | elita: dont you normally have main menu on the gnome panel? or can't you normally add it? | 08:17 |
| meowbuntu | yes i wont again if i get help i wont need to | 08:17 |
| Tartaros | elita: and the maximalising is done by "maximus" process | 08:17 |
| sharon_ | do you think its because i have to install regionset | 08:17 |
| jellow | meowbuntu: look in Preferences sound and change sound architecture | 08:17 |
| papul | what is ureadhead? | 08:17 |
| meowbuntu | jellow, ok i will try that | 08:17 |
| elita | Tartaros, normally I would expect it to be available, though for some reason it's not there. Any ideas how to add it? | 08:17 |
| elita | (the gnome main menu to the top taskbar) | 08:18 |
| sharon_ | please reply | 08:18 |
| Myrtti | sharon_: might | 08:18 |
| Myrtti | sharon_: might not. | 08:18 |

| sharon_ | it has more than one link | 08:18 |
| IdleOne | second time today I do that :/ | 08:18 |
| Tartaros | elita: :) ok | 08:18 |

| Mepoinc | jivedude you can log in as root, but not recommended | 09:01 |
| tpp | for instance i'd like to have a screen that shows me what is running on say 10 machines at any given time | 09:01 |
| koshari | tpp how often do you want it to update? | 09:01 |
| jivedude | Mepoinc got it thanks, I try to avoid it | 09:02 |
| tpp | well ideally every 10 seconds or so! | 09:02 |
| Paddy_NI | tpp: I guess you could use terminator to have multiple sessions open along with an ssh connection running top in each window connected to your different machines | 09:03 |
| koshari | tpp a rough and ready way would be a cron jod that copied the output from top to a file on an apache server you could then browse, | 09:03 |
| Paddy_NI | that would be one way I guess | 09:03 |

| Firekraag | ok thanks so what does google has to win developing chrome? :o | 09:09 |
| sebsebseb | Firekraag: just like that Google Chrome OS that is coming out later this year, it's based on Chromeium OS | 09:09 |
| sebsebseb | Firekraag: well they given source code to the open source community, and then they make their own one | 09:09 |
| sebsebseb | Firekraag: based on the open source | 09:10 |
| Nachturnal | ah your mention of system > preferences > preferred applications was the clue i needed. i just modified the command to add -3.5 | 09:10 |
| Nachturnal | ty sebsebseb | 09:10 |
| sebsebseb | Nachturnal: np | 09:10 |
| Firekraag | ok | 09:10 |
| sebsebseb | Firekraag: and I guess it will only be mainly Desktop Linux people that will know about Chromeium browser and Chromeium OS, Google will advertise Chrome browser and Chrome OS | 09:11 |
| sebsebseb | Firekraag: apparantly Chrome is better than Chromeium, however I don't use either, since I think it's better to support Firefox | 09:12 |
| Firekraag | On Archlinux I have some Flash issues under FF so i use chromium (for deezer for instance) | 09:12 |
| savolainen | Hello, i have problem with xubuntu and external USB-hard disc... Get problem when i try to mount it. Error is: mount: wrong fs type, bad potion, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1, missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog... | 09:13 |
| sebsebseb | Firekraag: what's that? | 09:13 |
| sebsebseb | deezer? | 09:13 |
| Nachturnal | I agree with that. I also dislike the EULA stunt Google pulled involving shared rights to anything transmitted through Chrome, even if they removed that part later. | 09:13 |
| Firekraag | sebsebseb: dunno if it's international. it's a music streaming website | 09:13 |
| Firekraag | sebsebseb: www.deezer.com | 09:13 |
| Firekraag | sebsebseb: fully legal, you can't dl the musics but it's very useful | 09:13 |
| Firekraag | sebsebseb: but no one is perfect: full flash and so on | 09:14 |
| Nachturnal | Firekraag, what exactly is the problem you have? I'm not having any problems with the site so far. | 09:14 |
| Firekraag | Nachturnal: When I look for a music the search goes into an infinite loop | 09:14 |
| sebsebseb | Nachturnal: well Netscape got killed by Micrsooft bundling Internet Explorer into Windows, but before they got bought out by AOL they released Gecko as open source. so yeah stuff to do with that why i'll support FIrefox, plus it's a good browser, and it has most market share than any IE version on it's own these days apparnatly. | 09:15 |
| Firekraag | Nachturnal: whereas on Chromium or on my Windows VM it works | 09:15 |
| sebsebseb | Nachturnal: also Apple could have improved KHTML what Konqueror uses, instead of just forking it, and making webkit, which Safari and Chrome and Choromeium all use, anyway off topic now | 09:16 |
| savolainen | Hello, anyone can help with little problem. I started using xubuntu and cant mount my external HD. | 09:17 |
| sebsebseb | Firekraag: try Flash with Epiphany and Galeon sudo apt-get install epiphany-browser not just epiphany on it's own or you get a game, (that's right Desktop Linux is for gaming as well, despite what certain people think) | 09:17 |
| Nachturnal | Firekraag, I think I see what you mean. I'm stuck with "Loading" even after clicking on a category link. And I hear ya sebsebseb, unless Mozilla royally fubars Firefox, I'm sticking with it for the long haul. | 09:17 |
| Firekraag | With Epiphany Deezer works also | 09:18 |
| Firekraag | No apt-get, I'm on arch ^^' | 09:18 |
| Firekraag | But can't understand why I have issues on FF | 09:18 |
| DomeDan | pacman epiphany-browser | 09:18 |
| lokvendra | sudo apt-get update : W: Error de GPG: http://security.ubuntu.com karmic-security Release Las siguientes firms fueron inválidas: NODATA 1 NODATA 2 | 09:18 |
| lokvendra | W: Error de GPG: http://ar.archive.ubuntu.com karmic-updates Release Las siguientes firms fueron inválidas: NODATA 1 NODATA 2 | 09:18 |
| Firekraag | yes i already have epiphany, i prefer chromium interface | 09:18 |
| sebsebseb | Firekraag: If your using Arch, why are you here? | 09:19 |
| pat|nG | i got an error installing vbox | 09:19 |
| pat|nG | :( | 09:19 |
| lokvendra | which is causing the error? | 09:19 |
| slap_stick | hey i have a video card and i've attached a dvi -> 2 vga outputs and hooked up two monitors to it, i want to run dual monitors side by side but without cloning i have done my xorg.conf but it isn't working it's cloning the screen: http://pastebin.com/m4ab2bdbd my graphics card is ATI Technologies Inc RV516 [Radeon X1300 Pro] | 09:19 |
| CmDrThor | Anyone got any experience with Ubuntu (8.04), VMWare and performance issues? I'm experiencing this increadibly CPU load for minor things, either running a java-application or a simple cp / scp. All CPU's (4) will go as high as 100% | 09:19 |
| pat|nG | post installation script | 09:19 |
| Firekraag | sebsebseb: to help people under ubuntu ^^ (i used to use this distro for a long time) | 09:20 |
| rambo3 | php-cli uses php as short name for execution . what is the full path of the program ? | 09:20 |
| Nachturnal | Now to find a proxy so I have access to more songs on deezer... lol. Apparently only a few songs are available to the US? | 09:20 |
| CmDrThor | Any pinpointers? I was thinking it would be an IO problem or some device / misconfiguration in kernel. | 09:20 |
| sebsebseb | Firekraag: ok that's a bit like me, I am on Mandriva right now, but here to help with Ubuntu, since that's the distro that has most chance at gaining a more proper market share, at the moment | 09:20 |
| savolainen | Anyone knows why i get this error when try to mount external HD: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1, missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so . | 09:20 |
| sebsebseb | Firekraag: plus it has a lot more users in the channel than say Mandriva, more fun to help in big channels I think | 09:21 |
| DomeDan | sebsebseb: debian here ;) | 09:21 |
| Firekraag | sebsebseb: yeah sure :D archlinux channel has 600 users not that bad | 09:21 |
| sebsebseb | used Ubuntu since second release in 2005 so yeah | 09:21 |
| Firekraag | started with 7.04 | 09:22 |
| Firekraag | was a windows user before... and a gamer ^^ | 09:22 |
| DomeDan | maybe we should stop trolling this channel :S | 09:22 |
| Myrtti | maybe you should | 09:22 |
| Firekraag | that is not trolling that are facts^^ | 09:22 |
| sebsebseb | DomeDan: well Debian and Ubuntu quite similar since Ubuntu is based on it, as I expect you already know. Anyway I might do testing soon after trying the next Ubuntu when that comes out. | 09:22 |
| sebsebseb | we aren't trolling just a bit off topic | 09:23 |
| Firekraag | i didn't say anything about windows or linux or whatever :o | 09:23 |
| pat|nG | i type sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose-source error message is : unable to lock the administration directory(var/lib/dpkg), is another process using it!? | 09:23 |
| Firekraag | do you have a synaptic/aptitude/apt-get instance running?? | 09:24 |
| Myrtti | pat|nG: do you have synaptic, add/remove, software update on? | 09:24 |
| DomeDan | pat|nG: close the update windows i guess | 09:24 |
| Firekraag | maybe an update? | 09:24 |
| pat|nG | Myrtti: how do i know? i think i close `em all | 09:24 |
| sebsebseb | DomeDan: Debian testing already tried in vm, and it might become my host OS on here, after doing 10.04 for a bit. Anyway back to support or whatever now, but not that many to help right now. | 09:25 |
| Firekraag | in your system tray, update icon looks like an orange box with an arrow inside | 09:25 |
| DomeDan | sebsebseb: im on debian testing now 2.6.32-trunk :) only had problem with touchpad | 09:26 |
| pat|nG | error in suplibOsInit for my vbox to run | 09:26 |
| dizzie | Hello, has anyone (with success) been able to use their ipod (gtkpod has issues), if so enlightend me please :) | 09:26 |
| sebsebseb | dizzie: try banshee | 09:27 |
| pat|nG | pls install the virtualbox-ose-source package i already did in sypnatics | 09:27 |
| dizzie | sebsebseb, does that work with podcast and stuff aswell? | 09:27 |
| sebsebseb | dizzie: podcasts uhmm yeah should be able to play those, you don't mean podcast from your ipod? | 09:28 |
| sebsebseb | !ipod | dizzie | 09:28 |
| ubottu | dizzie: For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto - For the iPhone and the iPod Touch, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone - See !RockBox for information on liberating your iPod | 09:28 |
| Firekraag | dizzie: i managed to sync my ipod with gtkpod, didn't try podcasts and other stuff | 09:28 |
| === sumit is now known as Sumit | ||
| dizzie | i use podcasts alot :) but i'll try banshee. Thanks for the answers guys :) | 09:29 |
| sebsebseb | dizzie: I don't have an Ipod, and if I want a portable music player that isn't just a standard CD player, I would buy something from cowon, since they support open formats such as OGG/Vorbis | 09:29 |
| Guest94405 | hi all | 09:29 |
| sebsebseb | dizzie: sometimes technology that has been around for quite a lot of years, such as a standard CD player, is actsually better | 09:29 |
| Firekraag | Guest94405: hi | 09:30 |
| trilil | hi, I have a question about ldap, I have in nsswitch.conf this --> "passwd: files ldap" and in /etc/pam.d/login this " auth sufficient pam_ldap.so" My question is, when you use pam_ldap.so library, does this consider the orden in the file nsswitch or directly It tries to authenticate using ldap (sorry my english) | 09:30 |
| jlauxetta | I dunno about that one, I threw my walkman out when the first pre-ipod mp3 players came out | 09:30 |
| Sumit | I am using ubuntu 9.10. But the booting up takes mote time that 9.04. | 09:30 |
| Sumit | any way to improve boot performance?? | 09:30 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: 9.10 was meant to improve boot up, but it has done the opposite for some people it seems | 09:30 |
| Firekraag | Sumit: system -> preferences -> startup applications maybe disable useless ones | 09:31 |
| mealstrom | Sumit: which state of booing is slow? | 09:31 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: upgrade from 9.04 or clean install of 9.10? | 09:31 |
| Sumit | Firekraag: already tried... | 09:31 |
| Sumit | black screen with ubuntu logo | 09:32 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: that's xsplash | 09:32 |
| soncp | can you please help me | 09:32 |
| Sumit | clean 9.10 | 09:32 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: which is meant to improve your boot up | 09:32 |
| soncp | i want chat by yahoo | 09:32 |
| mealstrom | trilil: I've used nsswich and used programs configs to identify that it should use ldap, such as sshd. | 09:32 |
| Xfact1 | soncp: go to pidgin and add one yahoo account :) | 09:33 |
| sebsebseb | soncp: uhmm Pidgin or Empathy? | 09:33 |
| mealstrom | has anyone worked with preseed install? | 09:33 |
| soncp | thank you so much | 09:33 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: How expereinced are you with Ubuntu? | 09:33 |
| soncp | i used pidgin | 09:33 |
| Sumit | not much... just using ubuntu since 3-4 months... | 09:33 |
| Xfact1 | soncp: i guess you know how to add one yahoo account on pidgin.... | 09:33 |
| Xfact1 | ? | 09:34 |
| mealstrom | Empathy is good, but for now pidgin is better. (only without sip (: ) | 09:34 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: I have an idea that might help, but probably not as such | 09:34 |
| soncp | yes i know | 09:34 |
| navid | hi i've lost my compizconfig manager window how can i gain it back? | 09:34 |
| Xfact1 | Kool then enjoy! yahoo! | 09:34 |
| KayAteChef | does pidgin have audio support yet? | 09:34 |
| Sumit | sebsebseb: please share I will try .. | 09:34 |
| hiatus | I have been using empathy lately, its not bad, some things I like, it also shows more promise then pidgin for future development | 09:34 |
| mealstrom | I've got problem with compiz and some full screen aps like nexuiz :( | 09:35 |
| mealstrom | hiatus: ill use empathy in future if thay managed to fix sip dialing (its bad now) and add some plugins | 09:35 |
| gantianand | hi my name is anand this is the first time iam using irc ubuntu | 09:35 |
| Xfact1 | KayAteChef: yes it has, but sometimes it may not work for having different chat programs.... | 09:35 |
| hiatus | Mealstrom: compiz is very resource heavy, its best just to turn compiz off when doing 3d gaming | 09:35 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: I haven't tried this myself, but if you remove xplash. I think then you get text boot up. Also if you change the log in screen from the default GDM 2, to KDM, you won't get the second screen. The one that says Ubuntu on it in the theme? You know the one I mean? It might speed up a little bit if you use kdm. | 09:36 |
| mealstrom | so, anyone who managed to configure preseed? | 09:36 |
| Firekraag | gantianand: what is the problem? and what is your graphics card? | 09:36 |
| Guest94405 | away | 09:36 |
| Xfact1 | v Welcome to Ubuntu support Anand :) | 09:36 |
| hiatus | Mealstrom: sip dialing? | 09:36 |
| Firekraag | mealstrom sorry | 09:36 |
| navid | hi i've lost my compizconfig manager window how can i gain it back? | 09:36 |
| gantianand | can i install lernid the ubuntu learning tool in jaunty jackalope 9.04 | 09:36 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: I think this is a good idea, first try boot up, when you have changed the log in screen | 09:37 |
| Xfact1 | navid: the easiest way, just remove and reinstall it.... | 09:37 |
| mealstrom | hiatus: yes, I know . but I've got trouble with compiz and screenlock. Compiz blocked programs "keep alive" and then screen blocks. sometimes was funny . | 09:37 |
| gantianand | thanks guys:) | 09:37 |
| soncp | oh thank | 09:37 |
| mealstrom | hiatus: empathy supports sip. but dialpad is really bad. | 09:37 |
| Sumit | sebsebseb: thanks...I will do that... | 09:37 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: only thing with KDM is that, it will put on loads of KDE stuff, if you haven't installed KDE stuff before. It does seem that xplash and GDM 2 are linked in 9.10 | 09:37 |
| hiatus | Ahhh | 09:37 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: xsplash above | 09:37 |
| soncp | Kopete very good for chat with yahoo and anything | 09:38 |
| mealstrom | it looks like "Oh! we add sip support. But don't know how manage with it" :) | 09:38 |
| mealstrom | inconvenient . That's the word I've been looking for :) | 09:39 |
| hiatus | I think ubuntu is trying to force support towards empathy | 09:40 |
| cherva | can anyone tell me a way to recover some files from a failing ext3 partitioned HDD | 09:40 |
| saviorfromthenor | hello | 09:40 |
| Sumit | sebsebseb:executed sudo xsplash above | 09:40 |
| navid | Xfact1: i dont know wt happened but i enabled something that was triggering by F9 | 09:40 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: no | 09:40 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: don't do anything with xsplash not yet anyway | 09:40 |
| Sumit | it again displayed same ubuntu startup window.. | 09:40 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: do you even know what KDE is by the way? | 09:41 |
| hiatus | It telepathy seems to have more potential then prpl or whatever pidgin uses does | 09:41 |
| saviorfromthenor | what's the topic today? | 09:41 |
| sebsebseb | saviorfromthenor: same as usueal Ubuntu support | 09:41 |
| mealstrom | cherva ohhh ... that's ugly situation. try dd utility | 09:41 |
| Sumit | ya...gnome kde x | 09:41 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: have you used KDE before? | 09:41 |
| saviorfromthenor | oh well | 09:41 |
| Xfact1 | navid: your compiz effects still working on your desktop? | 09:42 |
| Sumit | no | 09:42 |
| navid | Xfact1: yes they r | 09:42 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: my expereince it seems to load up a bi slow when the default xplash is used with the white Ubuntu logo in the centre of the screen, that's this computer, but also another one | 09:42 |
| Xfact1 | navid: I think best way to get help about compiz is #compiz channel, you should join there | 09:42 |
| navid | Xfact1: thx | 09:43 |
| Xfact1 | navid: :) | 09:43 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: seemd to be a bit slow on both. but thing is I recently put on a clean install of Karmic onto the other computer | 09:43 |
| Lamo | I've been trying to finish watching flash videos from here http://www.vbs.tv/watch/the-vice-guide-to-travel/the-vice-guide-to-liberia-6-of-8 However chrome and firefox both freeze when trying. Work for anyone else? I'm on 9.10 32bit. Is flash ever going to actually run in Linux or we just hoping for html5? | 09:43 |
| hiatus | Chevra: not a ubuntu question, but there are a lot of weird techniques for extending the life of your hard drive a few minutes for recovery | 09:43 |
| hiatus | Who knows if any of them work, you. You will find a thousand on youtube | 09:44 |
| ReTurN`oF`DraGoN | where i can ask about motherboard ? | 09:44 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: and also installed the whole of kubuntu. and changed to the kde log in KDM, and it changed the xsplash theme to it's one. and on that one it seems to boot up a bit faster. and that screen looks nicer. | 09:44 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: sudo apt-get install kdm and tell it to use kdm, and try boot up on the computer, it might be a bit faster | 09:45 |
| hiatus | Sebsebseb: kdm should be heavier on resources actually | 09:45 |
| sebsebseb | hiatus: you sure? | 09:45 |
| sebsebseb | hiatus: oh and if you know of a better way to make maybe make Sumit 's boot up faster, well please say | 09:46 |
| Sumit | sebsebseb: ok will let you know...after installation and reboot. | 09:46 |
| sebsebseb | !kubuntu | Sumit | 09:46 |
| ubottu | Sumit: kubuntu is Ubuntu with the KDE Software Compilation instead of !Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support join #kubuntu - See also !kde | 09:46 |
| cherva | mealstrom, can you give me a starting command to modify to my needs, because I can't think of a way to copy partitions something like dd if=/dev/sdb1 of=??? <maybe another partition with the same size?> | 09:46 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: and then you just select the one you want from log in screen, and one is the default, If you were to install the whole of that | 09:46 |
| saviorfromthenor | # | 09:47 |
| pop-i | How can I install exim 4.70 and not 4.69 which is in my repos? | 09:47 |
| hiatus | Sumit: stop unnessicary services in startup applications (look the music on boot, bluetooth if you don't use it) | 09:47 |
| pop-i | How can I install exim 4.70 and not 4.69 which is in my repos? | 09:47 |
| sebsebseb | hiatus: well it's his actsaul boot up, when the computer is turned on and it's about to go to a log in screen | 09:47 |
| Sumit | hiatus: I have already done stopping the processes. | 09:48 |
| jony123 | Hi im running ubuntu server edition. I have given a member of a project a shell account. Im wondering what sort of restrictions can i place on his shell account. | 09:48 |
| hiatus | Sebsebseb: what version is he using and is he using a ssd or hdd? | 09:48 |
| sebsebseb | hiatus: he is on 9.10 | 09:48 |
| mealstrom | something like dd if=imagen.img of=newimagen.img bs=512 skip=xxxx count=xxxxx , but there is oprion like -s something usefull but cannot remember | 09:48 |
| Myrtti | jony123: you can make his login shell rsh or similar | 09:49 |
| jony123 | Myrtti: can you elaborate? | 09:49 |
| sebsebseb | hiatus: I suggested to maybe remove xsplash ,but I don't think that's really a good idea for someone who doesn't know Ubuntu that well. installing kdm and trying boot up would be better, but even that could be unessary | 09:50 |
| izan | hello | 09:50 |
| izan | can help me ? | 09:50 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: how long does it take to boot up Ubuntu, I mean untill you got a log in screen? | 09:50 |
| izan | http://pastebin.com/f2af5c115 | 09:50 |
| hiatus | Sebsebseb: why not slim? | 09:50 |
| Myrtti | jony123: you can give them a restricted login shell, which restricts their access to the system etc. | 09:50 |
| sebsebseb | hiatus: since it's not in the repo, plus I haven't used it yet | 09:50 |
| mealstrom | hiatus: remove splash and change login background to logo with ubuntu :) | 09:51 |
| Myrtti | jony123: sorry, not rsh, but rbash | 09:51 |
| Sumit | sebsebseb: it takes around slightly mote than 1 min. | 09:51 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: how much RAM? how old is the computer? | 09:51 |
| izan | nobody here can help me ? | 09:52 |
| Sumit | sebsebseb: 1 gb. laptop, amd athlon 64 bit. ubuntu is i386. | 09:52 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: oh that could be to do with it possibily | 09:52 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: since you got 32bit Ubuntu on 64bit hardware | 09:52 |
| kyle__ | Morning. Have a few questions if there is anyone willing to help. | 09:52 |
| DomeDan | izan: line 6: "partition (e.g. /dev/sda, not /dev/sda1)? Or the other way around?" | 09:52 |
| Sumit | sebsebseb: i have also downloaded amd 64 bit version too. but its not supported. It needs i686. I think. | 09:53 |
| izan | DomeDan : what u mean ? | 09:53 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: do you have 2GB swap? or a bit bigger than that. not sure if that's really used for boot up, but it might be | 09:53 |
| kyle__ | i cant find good documentation on configuring a multi button mouse | 09:53 |
| DomeDan | izan: try sdb1 instead of sdb | 09:53 |
| izan | wait | 09:53 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: no i686 is 32bit | 09:53 |
| tux86 | hallo, ich habe bei mir einen ltsp-server laufen. nun möchte ich so standartsachen von den clients mitladen (bisher lade ich z.b. den firefox mit). weis jemand ob es ein paket für den rechtsklick gibt oder ist dieser mit in gnome enthalten? | 09:54 |
| sebsebseb | !de | tux86 | 09:54 |
| ubottu | tux86: In den meisten ubuntu-Kanälen wird nur Englisch gesprochen. Für deutschsprachige Hilfe besuchen Sie bitte #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #edubuntu-de oder #ubuntu-at. Geben Sie einfach /join #ubuntu-de ein! Danke für Ihr Verständnis. | 09:54 |
| Sumit | sebsebseb: swap is just 500 mb. | 09:54 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: that should be 2GB if you got 1GB RAM | 09:54 |
| jony123 | Myrtti: I want to restirct access to many things. But the following must be allowed. python screen irssi wget. | 09:54 |
| Sumit | sebsebseb: 64 bit version says i need i686. | 09:54 |
| izan | DomeDan : http://pastebin.com/f74ffc358 | 09:55 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: where? | 09:55 |
| hiatus | Sorry, I'm at work | 09:56 |
| Sumit | sebsebseb: when i tried to install 64 bit version. it gave me an error saying smthing like need i686 version. | 09:56 |
| DomeDan | izan: do this: fdisk -l /dev/sdb and post the output | 09:56 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: ok | 09:56 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: I guess your proccessor isn't 64bit then | 09:56 |
| izan | DomeDan : http://pastebin.com/m552a173b | 09:57 |
| kyle__ | anyone know how to configure a multi button mouse w/o having to use xorg.config | 09:57 |
| hiatus | Stopping xsplash will help a lot, xdm is also a light one. But crunchbang and most minimal setups use gdm over kdm because kdm and kde in general tends to be more resource hungry | 09:57 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: well I guess try kdm or xdm and see if boot up improves. and if not, try removing xsplash which is the white Ubuntu logo boot up | 09:57 |
| Sumit | sebsebseb: but laptop configuration says that processor is Athlon 64 X2 duel core QL-60 1.9 ghz | 09:57 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: maybe it's since you only have 1GB RAM | 09:58 |

| sebsebseb | Sumit: boots faster | 10:03 |
| sebsebseb | ? | 10:03 |
| Sumit | sebsebseb: it took less time to boot. but still not as fast as 9.04 | 10:03 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: 9.04 is rather fast to boot with optional Ext4, it's just not perfectly stable their since the kernel and such | 10:04 |
| Sumit | sebsebseb: ok | 10:05 |
| jetienne | q. is 9.10 a lts version ? how long is it supported ? | 10:05 |
| Sumit | sebsebseb: i will try to increase swap. | 10:05 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: 10.04 will improve boot up quite a bit over 9.10 it seems, but that's not out untill the end of April | 10:05 |
| sebsebseb | jetienne: no it's not | 10:05 |
| sebsebseb | !lts | jetienne | 10:05 |
| ubottu | jetienne: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Hardy (Hardy Heron 8.04). The next LTS release is scheduled to be !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04) | 10:05 |
| DomeDan | izan: ok, it seams like its windows that have locked it, if you start windows again and choose: "safe removal"..blabla and start up ubuntu again | 10:05 |
| jetienne | sebsebseb: thanks | 10:06 |
| sebsebseb | jetienne: np | 10:06 |
| kyle__ | can yall read this? | 10:06 |

| sebsebseb | kyle__: yes | 10:06 |
| kyle__ | just making sure | 10:06 |
| Sumit | sebsebseb: thanks... is there any tool out there by which I can increase or add swap partitions without formatting my disc??? | 10:07 |
| kyle__ | anyone know if they have support for amd k10 thermal sensors? | 10:07 |
| izan | DomeDan : another solution ? | 10:07 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: you can resize your partitions on the Ubuntu Live CD in gparted | 10:07 |
| kyle__ | gparted | 10:07 |
| DomeDan | izan: yeah, try "-o force" at the end of mount command | 10:07 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: good idea to have data backed up some where else though, just in case something goes wrong, which is unlikely | 10:07 |
| kyle__ | ^^ | 10:07 |
| izan | full command DomeDan ? | 10:07 |
| izan | mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb /media/windows -o force | 10:08 |

| izan | same error | 10:09 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: a what? | 10:09 |
| izan | wait | 10:09 |
| sebsebseb | Sumit: SWAP should be a partition on your hard disk, or a swap file on your hard disk | 10:09 |
| hiatus | Sumit: not suggested | 10:09 |

| sebsebseb | !ppc | ELoXL | 10:10 |
| ubottu | ELoXL: PowerPC. Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ | 10:10 |

| ELoXL | lol | 10:10 |
| DomeDan | izan: ok, then try to unmount it on windows (safe removal)-thing | 10:10 |
| izan | how ? | 10:10 |
| hiatus | Sumit: what kind of computer are you using, you might not even ever need to use swap, but its good to have, it exists for whem max out your memory | 10:10 |
| sebsebseb | !swap | Sumit | 10:11 |
| ubottu | Sumit: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info | 10:11 |
| Sumit | sebsebseb: Actually I read smwhere that flash card can be used to create swap.. | 10:11 |
| ELoXL | yeah, i've been there sebsebseb, but its been unable to answer most questions of mine. | 10:11 |
| Firekraag | i did not set up swap, i got GiB and I use 250 Mib ^^ | 10:11 |
| DomeDan | izan: like this: http://ask-leo.com/safely_remove_hardware_where_did_the_icon_go_how_do_i_safely_remove_hardware_without_it.html | 10:11 |
| sebsebseb | ELoXL: well not that many Ubuntu users using it on an old Mac as far as I know, YellowDog Linux though sure, but that's been made for Macs | 10:11 |
| hiatus | Sumit: they can, its just not very useful | 10:11 |
| sebsebseb | ELoXL: well I assume quite a lot use YellowDog | 10:12 |
| Sumit | hiatus: ok... | 10:12 |
| ELoXL | well i assume I should give that a try. runs pretty goodonmy PS3 | 10:12 |
| izan | DomeDan : this is server x64bit | 10:12 |
| ELoXL | never knew it was made for macs | 10:12 |
| hiatus | Yellowdog is good, its optimized for ppcs, I will testify to that | 10:12 |
| izan | and now install ubuntu server 64bit | 10:12 |
| kachingo | hi, I need to get a fakeraid NTFS partition to automount. I used dmraid to create create the files in /dev/mapper/. I can mount that fine. I edited fstab to auto mount it. The problem is, the file appears to disappear from /dev/mapper/ when I reboot. Do I need to run sudo dmraid -ay each time the computer boots? And if so, how do I get it to do that automatically? | 10:12 |
| gandhijee | does anyone happen to have the pulsbo.sh they can send me? | 10:13 |
| hiatus | The ps3 uses a ppc processor as well | 10:13 |
| DomeDan | izan: ok, is it a external harddrive? | 10:13 |
| Sumit | sebsebseb: will be back after I am done with swap partitions...and will let you know the result. Thanks... | 10:13 |
| sebsebseb | hiatus: oh that explans it then | 10:13 |
| sebsebseb | hiatus: why it's being used on PS3 | 10:13 |

| Myrtti | Jimi_Neutral: you can check the disk now, with the check tool, but my guess is that some bits and bytes have gone bad | 10:39 |
| Daughain | kachingo: You need to add slave drives manually. | 10:39 |
| Jimi_Neutral | rgr | 10:39 |
| Jimi_Neutral | Myrtti, ty | 10:39 |
| kachingo | daughain: slave drives? | 10:40 |
| Daughain | kachingo: The master drive ( the one your OS is installed on) gets miunted in fstab automaticaly. Any other drive is usualy classed as a slave drive. Thse need manual edits ti fstab to automount. | 10:41 |

| dandaman | http://pastebin.com/mbce4cd0 | 10:43 |
| dandaman | can anyone look at my smb.conf file | 10:43 |
| dandaman | and tell me what i should change to let my windows xp machine see shared files from my ubuntu machine | 10:43 |
| Myrtti | Jimi_Neutral: if possible, use torrent next time, it has it's own checkup method. or md5sum before burning | 10:44 |
| kachingo | Daughain: I understand that. The thing is, I need to get the dmraid program to activate the disk before fstab can mount it. Otherwise the location in /dev that fstab points to does not exist | 10:44 |
| Daughain | kachingo: OK, more raid issue....I still dont know anythng about raid. =( | 10:44 |
| Jimi_Neutral | Myrtti, ok cheers :) | 10:44 |
| Jimi_Neutral | Myrtti, you got a link for the torrent? | 10:46 |

| ubottu | Rashko: 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. :-) | 11:14 |
| erUSUL | !best | ZaLs | 11:14 |
| ubottu | ZaLs: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 11:14 |
| hiatus | There is a ubuntu bot channel? Didn't know that | 11:15 |
| erUSUL | !firewall | ZaLs | 11:15 |
| ubottu | ZaLs: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo).

| ubottu | CRACKHEADJUNKY: With Launchpad's Personal Package Archives (PPA), you can build and publish binary Ubuntu packages for multiple architectures simply by uploading an Ubuntu source package to Launchpad. See https://help.launchpad.net/PPAQuickStart. | 11:49 |
| erUSUL | CRACKHEADJUNKY: it gets updated daily (is a daily build ) | 11:49 |
| nigelcourtney | Has anyone on here had that problem, when on a fresh install you only get offered 640x480 or even worse 320x240?. I am guessing it has something to do with the fact it cannot see a monitor through the quadro card & 2 dongles. | 11:49 |
| CRACKHEADJUNKY | erUSUL, so i should use the ppa instead of the standard deb build? | 11:49 |

| TheAvatar | Hello, I'm trying to preseed an ubuntu karmic install. But no matter what I try, it keeps asking for keyboard layout auto detection. What am I missing, and what flag should I use to make it not ask for it? 'd-i console-setup/ask_detect boolean false' doesnt seem to do it | 12:11 |
| mathrick | hi, what do I need to do to get Software Sources thingo to recognise a USB CDROM drive as the update source? | 12:11 |

| RustyLockyer | windows | 12:22 |
| Slart | mathrick: hmm.. that looks like a cdrom to me | 12:22 |
| mathrick | so it does to me | 12:22 |
| Slart | RustyLockyer: got a question? | 12:22 |
| RustyLockyer | I need to get drivers for windows | 12:22 |
| === bibekpaudel is now known as bibekp | ||
| Slart | mathrick: if you go to system, administration, software sources, Other Software pane and click Add CD-rom.. does that work? | 12:23 |
| hiatus | Rusty: not a ubuntu question | 12:23 |
| SmokeyD | it seems that when wpa_supplicant is searching for an AP, it can't find any. But the wlan is definately there. On my laptop it works fine. | 12:23 |
| hyperstream | RustyLockyer, /join #windows | 12:23 |
| mathrick | Slart: nope, tried that before | 12:23 |
| Slart | RustyLockyer: this is #ubuntu, we answer questions about Ubuntu only.. | 12:23 |
| silv3r_m00n | does skype use ssl? | 12:23 |
| mathrick | it tells me to "insert media in the drive" | 12:23 |
| hyperstream | SmokeyD, using ndiswrapper? | 12:24 |
| hiatus | But ubuntu drivers are in the kernel :) | 12:24 |
| mathrick | silv3r_m00n: presumably, though no-one knows what it does for sure | 12:24 |
| silv3r_m00n | hmm | 12:24 |
| SmokeyD | hyperstream, yeah, I could try, but the driver should work.There are so many people saying the got it to work | 12:25 |
| gotsanity | How would I be able to detect if a wired network connection is active from within a shell script? | 12:25 |
| Slart | mathrick: hmm.. let me look around | 12:25 |
| SmokeyD | the verbose output of wpa_supplicant is on http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m14fba2b7 | 12:25 |
| hyperstream | SmokeyD, nono just wondering if you were using it | 12:25 |
| mathrick | Slart: thanks. If it helps, that drive wasn't there when the system booted / logged into session | 12:25 |
| pat|nG | wats the command to unzip a tar file? | 12:25 |
| SmokeyD | hyperstream, no the rt2870sta driver from ralink | 12:25 |
| SmokeyD | I downloaded and installed (compiled) the latest version | 12:26 |
| gotsanity | pat|nG, tar -xzvf <file> | 12:26 |
| mathrick | pat|nG: you untar tar files :) | 12:26 |
| SmokeyD | the driver loads fine, ifconfig ra0 up works, etc. So that seems to be ok | 12:26 |
| hyperstream | SmokeyD, hmm wierd. | 12:26 |
| johntramp | hi. i have a mail setup using getmail/mutt. am i able to use this with evolution aswell as mutt? | 12:27 |
| Slart | mathrick: you could just add a line to your sources list.. there is one syntax for adding cdroms (which I suspect might not work since the gui didn't find it), there's also a syntax for local files.. that might work if you use the full path to the files on the cd | 12:28 |
| Slart | mathrick: man sources.list has info on what the line should look like | 12:28 |
| mathrick | johntramp: you should be, mutt IIRC uses the standard ~/mbox, and so can evolution | 12:28 |
| mathrick | Slart: ooh, local files sound fine if I can do that | 12:28 |
| silv3r_m00n | hi there | 12:28 |
| whiter | how can i add a boot parameter in 9.10? | 12:28 |
| * mathrick tries | 12:29 | |
| silv3r_m00n | i install ubuntu on my new pc .... 120gb ubuntu + 3 x 120gb as ext4 | 12:29 |
| silv3r_m00n | i cant use the other ext4 to copy files | 12:29 |
| silv3r_m00n | why ? | 12:29 |
| mathrick | whiter: e to edit a line, type it in normally, Ctrl+x to boot | 12:29 |
| whiter | i mean permanently | 12:29 |
| mathrick | ah, then you need to read about GRUB2 on the wiki | 12:29 |
| silv3r_m00n | i cant copy files to the ext4 partitions created during ubuntu installation | 12:29 |
| silv3r_m00n | why ? | 12:29 |
| Slart | !details | silv3r_m00n | 12:30 |
| ubottu | silv3r_m00n: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 12:30 |
| silv3r_m00n | 500gb hard disk , ubuntu 9.10 64 bit .... partitioned as 120gb x 4 .... all ext4 ..........ubuntu on the first partition | 12:30 |
| silv3r_m00n | now i cant create folder or copy files to the other ext4 partitions | 12:31 |
| hyperstream | heh | 12:31 |
| johntramp | mathrick: ah i see, cheers | 12:31 |
| silv3r_m00n | hyperstream: me ? | 12:31 |
| === raven is now known as Guest2009 | ||
| hyperstream | cant see the partitions? does it have an error message about permissions? | 12:31 |
| Mrokii | hello. Can anybody tell me how "safe" it is to use the "X Updates-repository" that (according to the description) has updated versions of x.org drivers, libraries, etc. for Ubuntu? | 12:31 |
| Mrokii | I mean "safe" in terms of stability | 12:31 |
| mathrick | silv3r_m00n: my guess would be you don't have the permissions | 12:31 |
| mathrick | ie. they are set to root as the owner | 12:32 |
| Slart | silv3r_m00n: "can't create folder"? as in you're sitting to far away from your keyboard? you can find the "Create folder" command in nautilus? | 12:32 |
| hyperstream | silv3r_m00n, the last post by me was ment for you :) | 12:32 |
| silv3r_m00n | hmm | 12:32 |
| MauritianGuy | hola | 12:32 |
| silv3r_m00n | so how to make the drives accessible by my username | 12:32 |
| mathrick | Mrokii: usually fairly safe, except that I'd personally advise to stay away from kernel updates if it works fine. Kernel is a little bastard and will break on the slightest provocation | 12:32 |
| e-i-k-e | hi | 12:33 |
| silv3r_m00n | allright , with kdesudo dolphin i can create folders, and copy files to those drives | 12:33 |
| silv3r_m00n | how to do them with my user ? | 12:33 |
| mathrick | silv3r_m00n: sudo chown silv3r:silv3r /media/disk1 | 12:33 |
| mathrick | from the terminal | 12:33 |
| silv3r_m00n | mathrick: have i to do that everytime i boot ? | 12:34 |
| mealstrom | I've got problem with permissions, I want to mount samba share (smb://server/share) (cifs from fstab) but only got read permission and w for created files (but not create or delete) . Windows user can mount it as network disk with rw. Also I have rw permission on smb://server/share . Where can be the problem ? | 12:34 |
| Mrokii | mathrick: I have been using Ksplice for a few months now to update the kernel and didn't experience problems after updates. But thanks for the answer. | 12:34 |
| mathrick | silv3r_m00n: no, it's permanent | 12:34 |
| hyperstream | silv3r_m00n, google mounting partitions on boot | 12:34 |
| pat|nG | whats the default key for this fire effects? forgot | 12:34 |
| mathrick | pat|nG: ??? | 12:34 |
| Slart | !ccsm | pat|nG | 12:34 |
| ubottu | pat|nG: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or 'simple-ccsm'. If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz | 12:35 |
| Slart | pat|nG: the keyboard shortcuts for all the plugins are available there | 12:35 |
| skeelol | hey system testing finds my audio fine, but im still gettin pc beeps and no sound in games wat gives ??? | 12:35 |
| silv3r_m00n | mathrick: how to i make dolphin ask for a password when accessing those volumes ? | 12:35 |
| mathrick | you can't | 12:35 |
| pat|nG | thanx | 12:35 |
| mathrick | silv3r_m00n: it doesn't work that way | 12:36 |
| hyperstream | skeelol, what game? does sound work out side of the game ie an audio file/flash ? | 12:36 |
| skeelol | hrmm haven't even tried i dont think i even installed flash yet lets try it | 12:36 |
| BigWookie | hi, is there a way making my terminal flash ( invert colors for a ms or so ) for notifiactions ( i remember something like that with the bell ) | 12:36 |
| hyperstream | skeelol, just need to know if you can play audio outside of the game. | 12:36 |
| skeelol | btw wats diff between .deb and apt ? | 12:37 |
| Slart | skeelol: .deb if a file format , apt is an application which installs packages | 12:37 |
| mealstrom | apt, apitude -- packet's managers | 12:38 |
| mealstrom | *aptitude | 12:38 |
| Slart | skeelol: the apt system works with .deb files/packages | 12:38 |
| Slart | !apt | 12:38 |
| ubottu | APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome), !Adept (KDE) or !KPackageKit (KDE) | 12:38 |
| skeelol | can't install flash wth....downloaded APT and said instlal now it's all 'could not find package 'adobe-flashplugin' | 12:39 |
| Mrokii | Is MPD some kind of streaming-application? I don't get what it does exactly from the description I find on the net. | 12:39 |
| mealstrom | !usf | 12:39 |
| mealstrom | !usc | 12:39 |
| Slart | Mrokii: it's a music playing daemon.. it runs in the background and plays audio.. ie you can run it on a headless server and control it via the network | 12:39 |
| Mrokii | Slart: Thank you. So not what I am looking for :) | 12:40 |
| hiatus | Skeelol: just install ubuntu restricted extras, its in ubuntu software managerr | 12:40 |
| Slart | Mrokii: you can of course run it on your local desktop as well | 12:40 |
| hiatus | It installs flash and every other codec you would ever need | 12:40 |
| roland | hello | 12:41 |
| Mrokii | Slart: well, what I am looking for is a way to let another user listen to what I am listening at the moment, over the internet. I guess there are solutions, but haven't found something suitable (and easy to setup) yet. | 12:41 |
| coz_ | roland, welcome | 12:41 |
| Slart | Mrokii: pulseaudio =) | 12:41 |
| mathrick | Mrokii: there are DAAP internet servers, but that's all I know. I haven't used them personally | 12:42 |
| Slart | Mrokii: one of the big features with pulseaudio is that it's network transparent.. you might be able to use vlc to stream the audio as well, I'm not sure about the details of that though.. never tried it myself | 12:42 |
| Mrokii | Slart: thanks, I will take a look at pulseaudio and/or vlc in that regard. | 12:43 |
| mathrick | Mrokii: it's easy enough on the local network, just enable DAAP sharing in rhythmbox and you're done | 12:43 |
| Mrokii | mathrick: I don't need it for a local network, but for streaming sound to somebody in another part of the world. | 12:43 |
| mathrick | that's why I said there were DAAP internet servers | 12:44 |
| skeelol | ok | 12:44 |
| skeelol | no sound in flash | 12:44 |
| mathrick | because on LAN you don't need anything except a proper music player, which comes installed by default | 12:44 |
| skeelol | so | 12:44 |
| hiatus | Is flash playing now skeelol? | 12:45 |
| skeelol | yea got it installed no sound tho | 12:45 |
| skeelol | just look for linux realtek drivers i guess? | 12:45 |
| mathrick | skeelol: does sound work in anything else? | 12:46 |
| hyperstream | skeelol, err find out what sound card model is, lspci | 12:46 |
| skeelol | system testing it played sound | 12:46 |
| skeelol | thats all i think | 12:46 |
| jetienne_ | re.match(r"py", "slota.py") <- this is supposed to match, no ? because it doesnt... what did i miss ? :) | 12:46 |
| skeelol | its onboard sound | 12:46 |
| skeelol | realtek | 12:46 |

| Slart | hihos: there's no trash in the terminal though.. once deleted those files are gone | 12:48 |
| hihos | i no :) | 12:48 |
| mathrick | hihos: it's still good hygiene to input your lines with ls first, and only change it to rm when you're sure it prints the right thing | 12:48 |

| gotsanity | is it possible to set two different addresses to a single host in a hosts file? | 12:49 |
| mathrick | hihos: believe me, you don't want to remove the folder you had 5 years of school projects in just because there was one extra space you didn't intend to type | 12:49 |
| zy | i tried both DP and SP compile but i get the same error | 12:49 |
| zy | and i followed the readme.. maybe the author left something out? | 12:49 |
| Slart | zy: no errors when you run the ./configure part? | 12:49 |
| skeelol | going to sound in system administration i have it on autodetect and click test and hear a bunch of static | 12:50 |

| Lon3sword | I'm able to compile a hello world program in geany, but when I try to execute it, a terminal like window opens with the following message :"./geany_run_script.sh: 5: ./one: not found" [one is the file name] and it says program exited with code :127 | 12:50 |
| mathrick | gotsanity: you mean something like 127.0.0.1 me 127.0.0.1 localhost? | 12:51 |
| mathrick | yes | 12:51 |
| mobmob | skeelol: try another setting | 12:51 |
| zy | after editing the source, i just used make | 12:51 |
| Slart | zy: It | 12:51 |
| mathrick | gotsanity: though it's not guaranteed nothing will get confused | 12:51 |
| skeelol | tried em all either not detected or give static :D | 12:51 |
| Slart | zy: It's possible that the software you're compiling didn't use ./configure.. it's just a quite common way of doing things.. | 12:51 |
| gotsanity | mathrick, no, im talking 192.168.1.3 192.168.1.4 gotsanity | 12:51 |
| skeelol | wait... | 12:52 |
| mathrick | gotsanity: no, that'd make no sense | 12:52 |
| zy | Slart, i'm having difficulty compiling the orrs part (if you're familiar with xfoil) | 12:52 |
| Lon3sword | hello? Anybody familiar with geany? | 12:52 |
| Slart | zy: nope.. I've never used it | 12:52 |
| gotsanity | mathrick, two NICs, one host, one is always on but slow, one is only conected intermittently but fast | 12:52 |
| mathrick | gotsanity: the hostname is an identification mechanism from name → address. If you give multiple addresses, what'd that mean? | 12:52 |
| mathrick | gotsanity: the other hosts on the network won't know that | 12:52 |
| mathrick | multiple NICs are multiple hosts as far as the network is concerned | 12:53 |
| zy | Slart, http://web.mit.edu/drela/Public/web/xfoil/ version6.97 | 12:53 |

| buidangchung_ | hi all | 12:53 |
| Slart | zy: yup, downloading it as we speak.. | 12:53 |
| gotsanity | mathrick, but i could set up multiple hostnames blahfast and blahslow for example | 12:53 |
| buidangchung_ | i have a question | 12:53 |
| mathrick | gotsanity: then give them separate addresses and you're done | 12:53 |
| zy | i followed the instructions to the dot in readme.. cannot understand what is wrong. lol | 12:54 |
| mathrick | buidangchung_: that's nice, why don't you ask it? | 12:54 |

| ngirard_ | Hi all. The first user account has uid=1000. Is 1000 a magic number with respect to administrative rights, or could I theoretically change my uid/gid from 1000 to , say, 1005, whithout trouble ? | 13:01 |
| Slart | zy: hmm.. I can't really find anything.. it mentions that you're supposed to edit the makefile so that the compiler flags works for your OS.. I'm not sure how to do that but I guess that you've done that.. I would look at the Yahoo group they have for support.. there has to be other linux users having problems with this | 13:01 |

| mathrick | sipior: they are magical in the sense many tools will assume them to be system UIDs | 13:04 |

| ngirard_ | mathrick, on ubuntu, meaning | 13:04 |

| hyperstream | hihos, try google | 13:06 |
| paulus68 | nomnex: even when it's quit hard on the processor and mem? even after a fresh install it seems that my laptop is complaining and the van is running like crazy | 13:06 |
| hihos | yes no time for google :) | 13:07 |
| mathrick | ngirard_: honestly, I don't know, but I'd expect it to break | 13:07 |
| hyperstream | hihos, oh well :) | 13:07 |
| hihos | with googling it takes days and years to learn | 13:07 |
| hyperstream | thats by far incorrect lol | 13:07 |
| hihos | it is | 13:07 |
| mathrick | ngirard_: read the manpage, it doesn't seem to suggest that updating the perms is what it does | 13:07 |
| hihos | google is not a text bool | 13:08 |
| hihos | book | 13:08 |
| hihos | it is a damn searching engine | 13:08 |
| nomnex | paulus68, then try the neetbook version, so far the most of it is cosmetic if I recall | 13:08 |
| hihos | first you need to find out the right page | 13:08 |
| noob_ | hyperstream: on openvpn server? yes, there is, from commandline i can telnet into openvpn port on that server without any issues | 13:08 |
| ngirard_ | mathrick, thanks again. I think i'll take the rick. Oh yes, you're right, i'm intending to use usermod, *then* chmodding my files. Sorry for the misunderstanding | 13:08 |
| === ubuntu is now known as ZxoR | ||

| nomnex | paulus68, on the .iso download page, there are the min. specs | 13:09 |

| mathrick | ngirard_: but the perms I'm talking about are things like "is this user allowed to be admin?" | 13:09 |
| noob_ | hyperstream: restarting machine, some bug reports say that it fixes the issue, problem is i don't see any tun0 or etc in ifconfig -a as well.. anyways, restart | 13:09 |
| mathrick | ngirard_: if you do that and it breaks, you can wedge your system into a state where you don't have the perms to go back | 13:09 |
| mathrick | that's not a nice situation | 13:09 |
| mathrick | ngirard_: why do you care about the UID anyway? | 13:09 |
| ngirard_ | mathrick, hmm, yes, it's a concern. well, I'm about to reinstall ubuntu from scratch on my machine, to the first user i'll be creating is me, ngirard. Now, for easier data synchronization between my girlfriend's laptop and mine, I wish the uids/gids to match between the two machines. | 13:10 |
| mathrick | ngirard_: ah, that makes sense | 13:10 |
| mathrick | well, you can try, just have your recovery CD ready | 13:11 |
| roland | HELLO | 13:11 |
| ngirard_ | mathrick, i'll just reinstall my stuff and test, and if things go wrong ... yes, as you say ! | 13:11 |

| trilil | at least in spain Guest04004 :p | 13:36 |

| LjL | pat|nG: very unlikely. just don't run any .exe files (assuming you have WINE installed to run them) | 13:36 |
| hiatus | Casper3: more seriously, you can have ubuntu see your windows partition by installing ntfs from the package manager. Thusly letting you share space with your windows partition | 13:36 |
| zvacet | patinG : no it will not crash ubuntu because these viruses are made for windows | 13:37 |

| nomnex | Carlis swap is usually 1.5 you ram, / you can decide I use 15 Gib myself | 13:41 |
| zvacet | Carlis: 10 is enough for root (you can add more if you wish) 2GB for swap and rest for home | 13:42 |
| nomnex | Carlis, if you have 4 GB ram, you won't need that much (1.5x) | 13:42 |
| BluesKaj | 'morning folks | 13:43 |
| mathrick | zvacet: 10 is not enough, it'll run into problems when you try to upgrade | 13:43 |
| slava_dp | mathrick, 50 gigs for / ? that's mad. 15 is way more than enough. | 13:44 |
| mathrick | they're not insurmountable problems (I've done that just now), but they require nasty hacks with moving /var around that just aren't worth it | 13:44 |
| mathrick | slava_dp: *shrug*, 800G is a lot of space, and keep in mind /tmp also lives under / | 13:44 |
| LjL | Guest04004: ##programming | 13:44 |

| zvacet | mathrick: depends what do you want to install for average desktop user 10 is more then enough and upgrade iis not issue | 13:45 |

I currently chowned the cdrom device to root:cdrom, and removed unwanted users from "cdrom" group, but the computer automounts the drive, and locks it when a dissallowed user inserts a disc. | 13:45 |
| mathrick | slava_dp: my own disk is 60 fake GB in total, so my / is just 8G and it always causes issues when I upgrade | 13:45 |
| mathrick | Carlis: what do you mean? | 13:46 |
| fukker_ | when i press shutdown/reboot i now must type in my password. it says: system policy prevents stopping the system when other users are logged in | 13:46 |

| fukker_ | whats that about | 13:46 |

| Jon123 | on = ok | 14:31 |
| gfather | so im now on livecd , and i want to fix grub to be able to boot windows | 14:31 |
| DJones | NateW: The mozilla daily ppa isn't for firefox 3.6, its the test/beta version before the final updates get pushed through to the main version, so effectively you're using ff3.6.1 etc on karmic with the ppa | 14:31 |
| g0 | Jon123: Yes, I want to make it so, because I want to configure a webserver | 14:31 |
| scunizi | NateW: All packages get security updates. It does not mean that it will take you to the next version though. 3.6 is not considered a security update | 14:32 |

| NateW | DJones: understood.. its just kind of confusing why there is no 3.6 finals floating around anywhere (except lucid).. firefox is a main part of ubuntu (it is the app i use most) i dont see why it isnt kept up.. i may just be impatient and it might be released into the repos in a couple weeks. | 14:33 |

| ZykoticK9 | d2dchat, the command and error message that you got - i don't think the command ran as the correct user "postgres" I think it ran only as root - so the file/user/whatever it created might be owned by the root user instead of the postgres user -- you just need to test to verify that everything is working correctly, but if it isn't - this might be the cause | 15:48 |

| BigRedS | elexodus: Apple's GUID partition table might be an idea. Allegedly it's supported by Linux, but you need a new Grub to boot from it | 16:18 |

| rootUser_ | petsounds, thanks | 17:01 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | lory80, check if theres something like SXXcups-server at /etc/rc3.d | 17:01 |
| petsounds | rootUser_, you're welcome | 17:01 |
| rootUser_ | petercoulton, how can i use my microphone direct to my output | 17:01 |
| rootUser_ | ??? | 17:01 |
| lory80 | because every time I turn on my pc I add this string sudo / etc / init.d / cups restart to see the printer | 17:01 |
| javatexan | wow, what happened to the VNC server on 9.10? It was so much smoother in 8.10, it refreshed a lot faster in 8.10 | 17:02 |
| freewillie | Hey, I want to remove the package hotwayd but if i do i just get exceptions | 17:02 |
| javatexan | are there some settings that I messed up in the upgrade from 8.10 to 9.10? | 17:02 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | lory80, even better, type "sudo update-rc.d cups enable 4" | 17:02 |
| freewillie | Does anybody know how to uninstall such a package? | 17:03 |
| Gintulis | hey, how to disable tauchpad in ubuntu by terminal? | 17:03 |
| Pici | freewillie: How did you install it? | 17:03 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | lory80, even better, type "sudo update-rc.d cups enable" | 17:03 |
| lory80 | I have several things in the folder / etc/rc3.d | 17:03 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | lory80, reboot and see if works | 17:03 |
| javatexan | I see that I have X11vnc running | 17:04 |
| freewillie | Pici: I downloaded the rpm because the pckage wasn in the repos and converted it with alien to an deb and then installed it with dpkg -i | 17:04 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | !alien | freewillie | 17:05 |
| ubottu | freewillie: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported) | 17:05 |
| Pici | freewillie: And when you do dpkg -r you get errors? | 17:05 |
| lory80 | AndreMorro[BR], ok put the string "sudo update-rc.d cups enable" and then on again | 17:05 |
| freewillie | Pici: dpkg: fout bij afhandelen van hotwayd (--remove): subproces installed post-removal script gaf een foutwaarde 1 terug Fouten gevonden tijdens behandelen van: hotwayd | 17:05 |
| freewillie | Pici: It is dutch | 17:06 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | lory80, Ok, baby steps, Go To -> Applications -> Acessories -> Termianl , type (without quotes) "sudo update-rc.d cups enable" , then, reboot your computer and check if worked | 17:06 |
| freewillie | Pici: Can i fast change the terminal language so you understand? | 17:06 |
| llutz | freewillie: LANG=C command | 17:06 |
| Pici | freewillie: You're out of luck. We do not support using alien to install packages, you could trying using --force but you may still need to clean it up manually. | 17:06 |
| freewillie | Pici: ok how? | 17:07 |
| Pici | freewillie: dpkg --force -r hotwayd | 17:07 |

| sebdah | Hi guys! I have a set up much like this one http://people.apache.org/~mturk/docs/article/fig3.gif. And the applications running on the Tomcats can _not_ run in parallell. So I would like to have some kind of master/slave functionality in Apache. Suggestions? | 17:10 |
| jumanjiko | how can i convert .mkv movies to .avi ? | 17:10 |
| sebdah | I have been looking at mod_proxy_balancer, which I am using for other real load balancing purposes, but I can't really see a way to totally disable one Tomcat while the first one is up and running. | 17:10 |
| Pici | freewillie: dpkg --force-all -r yourpackage. This may not work though and I really don't like suggesting it as it could break your system. | 17:11 |
| mediaprodigy | !studio | 17:11 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | lory80, allright, then type "sudo update-rc.d cups enable 4" | 17:11 |

| AndreMorro[BR] | mediaprodigy, open Aptitude (at terminal) go to Tasks, ubuntu-studio , type + , then g, then g, whait a LONG time, and done | 17:11 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | mediaprodigy, BUT, its way better a fresh install | 17:11 |
| jenda | Is there any common reason for Brasero to hang on "preparing to write"? | 17:11 |

| AndreMorro[BR] | luist, in the find command you saying to it "find things with EXACTLY name noarch.rpm" and grep check everything that has noarch.rpm in the name (I guess thats it) | 17:13 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | mediaprodigy, Not sure... | 17:13 |

| spotter | I cna only seem to get it to start w/ a curses interfaces | 17:28 |
| Firekraag | jez9999: well you have to configure the router feature, NAT/PAT and so on | 17:29 |
| jellow | _MM_: ftp 127.0.0.1 , ftp is all ready intalled by default | 17:29 |
| jez9999 | doesnt dhcpd-3 deal with all of that? | 17:29 |

| ahayzen | hello. How can I update old programs on the Ubuntu Software Centre? | 17:29 |
| jez9999 | so what takes care of the NAT stuff then? | 17:29 |
| zanberdo | specifically I've got some remote servers running ubuntu 8.04 and I noticed that today there is an update/replacement for grub | 17:30 |
| zanberdo | I'd like to know what the update/changelog is for this particular update | 17:30 |
| Firekraag | jez9999: i don't know how to implement that on a PC but you've got to find a software that will do the routing and NAT/PAT i guess | 17:30 |
| jellow | ahayzen: sudo apt-get update? | 17:30 |
| Firekraag | jez9999: DHCP and IP routing are different processes, the DHCP server and router can be different machines also | 17:31 |
| ahayzen | Jellow: Thx for reply but I mean updating the package that is on the server - as in upload a new version of the package? | 17:31 |
| nibbler | jez9999: nat/routing is done by the kernel, dhcp is userland | 17:31 |
| _MM_ | jellow: thanks | 17:31 |
| jez9999 | ah, the kernel | 17:31 |
| jez9999 | so, how do i tell the kernel to dothe natting? | 17:32 |
| arik | can i ask a question? > I uninstalled firefox that come with 9.10 and installed firefox 3.6 via terminal. what came out is a Firefox - Namoroka. i understand that this is an alpha version, so i removied it in the terminal, and manually installed 3.6 by its tar.bz2. however there is no launcher available. I reinstalled firefox in ubuntu Software Center; the alpha version appeared on my menu but when i run it surprisingly it is 3.6 | 17:32 |
| Firekraag | the kernel includes a router? ow didn't know this one | 17:32 |
| jez9999 | that i think is what isnt working | 17:32 |
| jez9999 | dhcp is working, connection to the net is working | 17:32 |
| jez9999 | NAT routing is not working | 17:32 |
| jez9999 | so, what do i need to fix? | 17:32 |
| jez9999 | what config file or whatever | 17:32 |
| Firekraag | does anyone here use Azureus/Vuze? | 17:33 |
| nibbler | jez9999: nopaste your iptables -nvL and iptables -nvL -tnat and did you activate ipforwarding? | 17:33 |
| llutz | jez9999: check iptables | 17:33 |
| iceroot | !anyone | Firekraag | 17:33 |
| ubottu | Firekraag: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 17:33 |
| jez9999 | ahh# | 17:33 |
| jez9999 | so iptables (and so the kernel) does the NAT | 17:34 |
| jez9999 | i am getting: "iptables -nvL -tnat" | 17:34 |
| jez9999 | can't initialize iptables table `-tnat': Table does not exist (do you need to insmod?) | 17:34 |
| nibbler | jez9999: seems like you need insmod :p | 17:34 |
| jez9999 | the thing i dont get was, this was working | 17:34 |
| jez9999 | i then attached the hard drive to a new motherboard, but no config changes | 17:34 |
| jez9999 | and it's doing this | 17:35 |
| nibbler | jez9999: what about the one without nat? | 17:35 |
| Firekraag | My Vuze disappears. I checked out the related article on the wiki but it didn't helped me. I have Vuze 4.3.0.4 under Archlinux, Sun Java 1.6.0_17 (tried with openjre too) | 17:35 |
| jez9999 | so it would seem the software to do this already is on the machine | 17:35 |
| arik | can i ask a question? > I uninstalled firefox that come with 9.10 and installed firefox 3.6 via terminal. what came out is a Firefox - Namoroka. i understand that this is an alpha version, so i removied it in the terminal, and manually installed 3.6 by its tar.bz2. however there is no launcher available.

| h0rnman | wish^, for your first problem, it sounds like you don't have login/permissions set right on the remote machine. Keep in mind that for Samba access to Windows shares, you must have the share set up on windows with permissions granted to a user with the exact credentials (case sensitive) that you are trying to log in with | 18:00 |
| Trek | Leolo_3, while that lists all the modules, how do I differentiate which applies to what device? | 18:00 |
| wish^ | h0rnman: im logging in with my owners account | 18:01 |
| h0rnman | wish^, how are you attempting to log in? | 18:01 |
| wish^ | as i open my computer in the network interface it brings up a login dialogue | 18:02 |
| wish^ | h0rnman: im just trying to transfer some data off the ubuntu laptop before i reinstall.. And that is really what i am not able to do, if you got any other tips to how i can do it then feel free to enlighten me | 18:03 |
| h0rnman | wish^, OK, and you are using the exact credentials (Username is the same [case-sensitive], domain is correct (should be the computer name you are trying to connect to), and password is right for that specific user? | 18:03 |
| wish^ | h0rnman: yea i tried it 20 times.. spelling the name and the password out perfectly.. and the name of it is correct | 18:04 |
| charles__ | anyone around here use mplayer? (and able to maybe answer a question or two?) | 18:04 |
| h0rnman | wish^, are you making sure that the domain matches the name of the remote machine? | 18:05 |
| Leolo_3 | trek : good question :-) | 18:05 |
| wish^ | h0rnman: yea, the computer shows up in network discovery dialogue and i double click it to access it | 18:05 |

| wish^ | h0rnman: that is correct | 18:10 |

| wish^ | h0rnman: thanks for your time anyway, ill give it another go | 18:13 |

| ubottu | ta_: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported) | 18:43 |
| iceroot | !rpm | ta_ | 18:43 |
| Pici | ta_: Short answer: Don't | 18:43 |
| iceroot | ta_: dont use rpm ob ubuntu | 18:43 |
| Nookie | thx | 18:43 |
| phox_ | logialdash: okey! And how would that be perfomerd? | 18:43 |
| LogicalDash | phox_: in a terminal, change to the directory just outside of the drive you want, then do [chmod a+rwx ntfs] where ntfs = the name of the mountpoint | 18:44 |
| Castbound | !es | Castbound | 18:44 |
| ubottu | Castbound, please see my private message | 18:44 |
| LogicalDash | er, that's the name that the drive shows up as | 18:44 |
| argued | Do I need to restart X for changes to activate after using chmod on directories? | 18:44 |
| LogicalDash | phox_, oh, you'll need root user privileges for that command -- put 'sudo' on front | 18:44 |
| iceroot | argued: no | 18:45 |
| phox_ | logialdash: okey, ill try that | 18:45 |
| erUSUL | phox_: sudo mount -t ntfs-3g -o umask=0000 /dev/sdxx /mount/point | 18:45 |
| ta_ | ok, then, anyone knows if virtualbox supports vmware images? | 18:45 |
| iceroot | ta_: yes it does | 18:45 |
| phox_ | erusul: where mount/point is the place of my external drive? Its placed on the desktop. | 18:45 |
| pat|nG | Pici: i still got the same error message | 18:46 |
| argued | strange - I really need help with this - would any kind soul take few minutes to go trough this with me? | 18:46 |
| erUSUL | phox_: yu should umount it forst and chooes a directory for it to be mounted. /media/windows_disk for example | 18:46 |
| erUSUL | phox_: create the folder « sudo mkdir /media/windows_disk » first | 18:46 |
| ta_ | iceroot, ok, here is the thing, I have vmware licensed but the installation files comes in rpm. I need to know if I am going to be able to copy the images from vmware and use them in ubuntu. Is there a better app for virtualization other than virtualbox? | 18:47 |
| Trek | argued: whats your issue(s)? perhaps I can help | 18:47 |

| iceroot | !vmware | ta_ | 18:47 |
| ubottu | ta_: VMWare is not available in the Ubuntu repositories. Consider using !QEmu or !VirtualBox as alternatives. Instructions for installing VMWare manually are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware | 18:47 |
| erUSUL | phox_: /dev/sdxx --> /dev/sdb1 or whatever aply in your case | 18:47 |

| ta_ | iceroot, ohh ok | 18:48 |
| argued | Trek: so I created a new group "multimedia" and trying to work with chmod and chown | 18:48 |
| m4j | can someone please help me | 18:48 |
| iceroot | !ask | m4j | 18:48 |
| ubottu | m4j: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 18:48 |
| argued | Trek: but what ever I do my other user cant access the files | 18:49 |
| Trek | argued: do you allow them access to your /home folder? | 18:49 |
| phox_ | erusul: okey, so i did what you said. Now what? | 18:49 |
| Miracle | Hi all - in Evolution I am getting a weird symbol (a box with 0095 in it) for bullett points and punctuation. How can I fix this? | 18:49 |

| erUSUL | phox_: with the values you choosed. all files are now aviable at /mount/point with 777 permissions | 18:50 |
| erUSUL | phox_: or should be | 18:50 |
| Trek | argued: what I mean is, does the other user have read access to the home folder then the /home/music folder? | 18:50 |
| argued | Trek: them? I asked around before and all answers I got was to put the folder in my /home instead of creating new partiotion /mountpoint | 18:50 |
| Pici | pat|nG: Then run apt-get update again | 18:50 |
| argued | Trek: no | 18:51 |
| m4j | ask! firefox is not restoring my session | 18:51 |
| Trek | argued: i might also not be the best person to help, I have a system that allows users to assign users' access through a different method | 18:51 |
| Trek | argued: sorry if I'm not of much help | 18:51 |
| Trek | m4j, stop repeating continuously, someone will eventually see your question | 18:51 |
| argued | Trek: np - any suggestion how I could fix this - the other user is my wife and I trust her with all | 18:51 |

| coolcat | Trek, it was working properly one hour ago. | 18:53 |

| coolcat | Trek, no I did not, I can do it later, I am running a program now and cannot stop it | 18:55 |
| Pici | !gpgerr | pat|nG | 18:55 |
| ubottu | pat|nG: Getting GPG errors after adding custom repositories? Find the GPG keyword for the repository (it's 437D05B5 for the standard ones) and run « gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys <key> && gpg --export --armor <key> | sudo apt-key add - » | 18:55 |

| Alarm | hello. i my laptop display settings seem to be (maximum 1280x800). is it possible to add a higher resolution ? | 18:55 |
| coolcat | Trek, no. it is a data analysis program | 18:55 |
| Alarm | xlr | 18:56 |
| Trek | Alarm, the laptop display settings maximum is already listed for what your monitor can handle | 18:56 |
| Screamo_Smurf | Alarm i dont think so, its monitor based | 18:56 |
| Alarm | xorg.conf doesnt seem to have anything so that i can add extra settings | 18:56 |

| Trek | ircleuser: you checked to see if there's a proprietary driver out there? | 18:57 |

| iAmAnAdmin | erUSUL, i don't mean the network usage on the computer i'm on, i mean so I can track the data using my computer as a through-way to the server | 19:15 |

| mediaprodigy | Trek: i am not familiar with Lftp at all. | 19:29 |
| prodigel | Vlet, my final guess is that something in mc's ftp client implementation is wrong/deprecated | 19:30 |

| mediaprodigy | Trek: what did you mean if you use the logical operators correctly? | 19:30 |

| Vlet | prodigel: just arbitrary help debugging :) | 19:38 |

| Slart | doublehe1ix: hmm.. not sure why it wouldn't see it then.. it detected my windows 7 partition just fine | 19:58 |
| cisco | at the bottom it says MM the middle one nothing and the 3rd MM | 19:58 |
| doublehe1ix | Slart: I think it's on an extended partition if that matters | 19:59 |
| llutz | desen: you want to share internet-connection or what? | 19:59 |
| Slart | doublehe1ix: I don't think that should be a problem.. I'm not entirely sure.. I've never used any extended /logical partitions on my hard drives | 19:59 |

| Slart | cisco: ok.. you can use the arrow keys (<-, ->) to select which slider to control and arrow up and arrow down to change the slider.. see if you can work out which slider goes to the headphones and which goes to the speakers | 20:02 |
| llutz | desen: just connect to the switch, use dhcp or static ip. make sure to use same subnet for all machines | 20:02 |
| tsimpson | steffan: for future reference, you can request changes with /msg ubottu (factoid) is (new response) | 20:03 |
| cisco | ok done | 20:03 |
| Slart | mathrick: can't you just click on the user switcher thing in the panel and select to login to a new session.. I don't use that panel myself so I can't check | 20:03 |

| chi_ | w3l54666: $modprobe -r [...] but it just removes modules ... [ so you need the correct driver .... what is the correct driver can be found in the appropriate forum of the company ] it could mean that you have to compile your own kernel module (driver) ... | 20:30 |
| windmill | hello, anyone know what sort of performance hit i can expect if I decided to encrypt my home directory? | 20:30 |
| erUSUL | maxfiles: all those servers where installed from repositories ? | 20:30 |
| maxfiles | erUSUL: YES they are | 20:30 |
| maxfiles | all except webmin | 20:31 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | maxfiles, check /etc/rc3.d and rc4.d folders, programs that will startup are marked as SXXservice | 20:31 |
| erUSUL | maxfiles: if you do « sudo update-rc.d apache2 defaults » do you get any warning error? | 20:31 |
| guntbert | !webmin | maxfiles | 20:31 |
| ubottu | maxfiles: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. | 20:31 |
| erUSUL | maxfiles: anything in /var/log/daemon.log ? | 20:31 |
| obaid | windmill, very little i think | 20:31 |
| maxfiles | when did webmin not become compatible? | 20:32 |
| erUSUL | maxfiles: well that factoid has benn there quite a lot time | 20:32 |
| windmill | obaid, I'm leaning toward not encrypting | 20:32 |
| gabriel_ | hello! Nautilus list an extra entry under the "places" tab, which is not in my fstab, and is unmountable. How can i remove it? | 20:32 |
| maxfiles | I was able to use it under 8.04 | 20:32 |
| maxfiles | and never had a problem | 20:32 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | gabriel_, open nautilus and type Ctrl B, is the "places organizer" | 20:33 |
| guntbert | maxfiles: that came down from debian - and ithe factoid is mainly a warning | 20:33 |
| obaid | windmill, if performance is your only concern, then go ahead, it wont make big difference, but make sure u dont screw up your home dir | 20:33 |
| lory80 | hello | 20:34 |
| lunix | how di i kill gdm in ubuntu 9.10 before I used "killall gdm" or ctrl alt backspace now what?? :) | 20:34 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | lory80, so, it helped?? | 20:34 |
| lory80 | AndreMorro[BR], I install the printer | 20:34 |
| Myrtti | lunix: sysrq-k | 20:34 |
| obaid | lunix, dont kill gdm | 20:34 |
| obaid | lunix, stop it | 20:34 |
| mka | windmill, if the maching is soley yours and you are not leaving sensitive information (like credit card information) lying around carelessly and you are not superparanoid then you may live without encryption | 20:34 |
| usuario | OLAÇ+ | 20:34 |
| mka | windmill, machine | 20:34 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | lory80, and?? it worked?? | 20:34 |
| lunix | how to stop it then? | 20:34 |
| lory80 | no | 20:35 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | lunix, /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 20:35 |
| gilgamesh__ | hello :) What distro should I install Fedora or OpenSuSE ? | 20:35 |
| gabriel_ | AndreMorro[BR]: hmm but it actually doesn't show the stuff listed in the places organiser.. in fact, the entries in the organiser were showing before i edited my fstab, now they don't show up. It's a bit messed up :( | 20:35 |
| xapel | how do I add the skype repository? | 20:35 |
| guntbert | windmill: one precaution with an encrypted homedir: never change the users password with sudo passwd user (which is unnecessary anyway) - or you might loose the easy access | 20:35 |
| lunix | thanks! A lot more elegant than killall gdm indeed :D | 20:35 |
| obaid | lunix, switch to vty1, Ctrl+Alt+F1, there u can stop as AndreMorro[BR] mentioned | 20:35 |
| obaid | with sudo, lunix | 20:35 |
| guntbert | windmill: another point: be sure to record the passphrase (not the user password) in a secure place | 20:36 |
| lunix | yeah:) im there now thanks for helping | 20:36 |

| Outc4sted | So I just installed Ubuntu 9.10, but the boot manager doesn't bring it up as a selectable option. One suggestion I got was to boot from the live CD, and open a terminal. I put my CD in and just prompts me to install again, and I don't know the key to open a terminal | 20:36 |
| windmill | guntbert, it seems maybe a a bit more risky than I want | 20:37 |
| gabriel_ | AndreMorro[BR]: actually the entry is not a bookmark, it's a harddrive entry in the places tab | 20:37 |
| josheee12 | i installed ubuntu to dual boot with windows 7. after rebooting, my pc boots straight into windows 7, even though grub installation went ok. | 20:37 |
| guntbert | windmill: no - not really risky - but you have to take precautions - didn't want to scare you | 20:37 |
| gabriel_ | how can i edit what's shown in the places tab in nautilus? | 20:37 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | gabriel_, Oh Ok, gotcha, its missing? | 20:37 |
| xapel | I dont think medibuntu has skype anymore...is there another repo perhaps? | 20:38 |

| gabriel_ | AndreMorro[BR]: in my fstab i have: UUID=5260364860363359 /media/bigmomma ntfs-3g users 0 0, and the voume label is "big momma". In nautilus, the correct entry (which is mounted on boot) is "big momma", and the entry not working is "bigmomma". | 20:41 |
| gabriel_ | AndreMorro[BR]: so the mount is working, i just have an extra entry in nautilus | 20:42 |
| gabriel_ | AndreMorro[BR]: i want to get rid of it | 20:42 |
| Carlis | in #winehq they don´t talk. They are quiet | 20:42 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | gabriel_, Oh Ok! Got it, have you checked de /media folder? | 20:42 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | gabriel_, also take a look at the /etc/mtab file | 20:42 |
| === losha is now known as Losha | ||
| IdleOne | Carlis: be patient :) | 20:42 |
| gabriel_ | AndreMorro[BR]: yes. it has a folder for each drive so i can mount to it.. like "bigmomma" and others. | 20:42 |
| mka | gabriel_: first, just a recommendation, put fstab mount points under /mnt not /media | 20:43 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | gabriel_, isn't there any wierd folders? | 20:43 |
| Carlis | ok | 20:43 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | mka, why that? | 20:43 |
| gabriel_ | AndreMorro[BR]: no weird folders. just the one i need for that drive, /media/bigmomma | 20:43 |
| mka | AndreMorro[BR], /media is used to place mount points for removeable drives | 20:44 |

| AndreMorro[BR] | agliodbs, make sure Backports repositories are available at Synpatics, it should be the usb-creator available to install at 8.04 | 21:00 |
| kinja-sheep | rapha: Np. | 21:00 |
| kinja-sheep | agliodbs: In the nutshell, what are you trying to do? | 21:01 |
| gabriel_ | mka: sorry, my swedish jumped out :D | 21:01 |
| mka | gabriel_, whats the problem now? | 21:01 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | agliodbs, hey, check that out http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/universe/u/usb-creator/usb-creator_0.1.10~hardy1_all.deb download and install... create the USB and BeHappy | 21:01 |
| gabriel_ | mka: well maybe no problem... should permissions be set to "root" for everything? | 21:02 |
| pat|nG | i have downloaded a screenlet apps in a .tar where can i find my previous screenlet folder coz it states that i have to delete my previous screenlet and extract there? | 21:02 |
| gabriel_ | mka: i mean on that partition | 21:02 |
| === joe75_ is now known as joe75 | ||
| mka | gabriel_, you can set them to you | 21:02 |
| agliodbs | AndreMorro[BR]: ok, that's my next trial | 21:02 |
| gabriel_ | mka: in fstab.. how? | 21:02 |
| azerty3 | h i there | 21:03 |
| Dreakon | Hiya! I tried Ubuntu a week or two ago (recently switched back to Windows 7 however) and I'm curious if the UI of Ubuntu is supposed to work kind of sluggishly compared to Windows, or if my laptop just can't handle it very well. | 21:03 |
| agliodbs | AndreMorro[BR]: one other thing making this challenging is that the current hardy install is crashing after 1 hour of use ... | 21:03 |
| azerty3 | how to create a symbolic lync ? | 21:03 |
| RocketLauncher | In Keyboard Shortcuts, I made a command use Ctrl+V by mistake. Now Ctrl+V doesn't work for pasting. How do I get this working again? | 21:03 |
| gabriel_ | mka: don't i need to mount it as owner=user or something? | 21:03 |
| vAd0r | I have a dell e6500 with dell E dock. I have the latest version of ubuntu installed. I dock the laptop and turn it on. It goes to the grub loader then i chose ubuntu then i get nothing. | 21:03 |
| guntbert | azerty3: ln -s <source> <dest> | 21:03 |
| mka | gabriel_, in that line with 'defaults' replace 'defaults' with 'defaults,uid=1000,gid=1000' | 21:03 |
| azerty3 | thx guntbert | 21:03 |
| guntbert | azerty3: you're welcome :-) | 21:04 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | agliodbs, Awsome... so you have 30 minutos to make everything LOL | 21:04 |
| azerty3 | how to undo a symbolic lync now ? | 21:04 |
| mka | gabriel_, yes you need to do just that | 21:04 |
| Dreakon | Anyone? :) | 21:04 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | azerty3, delete it | 21:04 |
| guntbert | azerty3: rm <link> | 21:04 |
| mka | gabriel_, but owner is called 'uid' if you know what i mean | 21:04 |
| gabriel_ | mka: yes user id | 21:04 |
| jolaren | Is a graphical card required for ubuntu server? I have one in but I think it's semi broken because it gives stripes over the screen | 21:04 |
| mka | gabriel_, i assume your uid is 1000 | 21:04 |
| === sale_ is now known as sale | ||
| dogg | man so much going on where do i get a number for someone to tell me whats up with this bcm43xx driver jazz | 21:04 |
| azerty3 | can we remove a lync i never heard b4 ? | 21:04 |
| agliodbs | AndreMorro[BR]: yeah, memtest is going to be part of this | 21:04 |
| gabriel_ | mka: yeah prolly. i'm the only user :) | 21:05 |
| mka | gabriel_, you can confirm it by typing 'id' | 21:05 |
| gabriel_ | mka: yep | 21:05 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | jolaren, not really... but you'll need one to boot the computer, and also to install the distro | 21:05 |
| RocketLauncher | In Keyboard Shortcuts, I made a command use Ctrl+V by mistake. Now Ctrl+V doesn't work for pasting. How do I get this working again? | 21:05 |
| gabriel_ | mka: but what about the root filesystem? should it be mounted with defaults only? | 21:05 |
| jolaren | AndreMorro[BR]; Okay, thanks. I can see the text.. i don't know if its broken but it's stripes .. still readable | 21:06 |
| Leoneof | hi | 21:06 |
| mka | gabriel_, then that line will be 'UUID=5260364860363359 /media/bigmomma ntfs-3g defaults,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0' | 21:06 |
| Dreakon | Is the Ubuntu GUI designed to run a bit sluggishly compared to Windows, or is that a sign my laptop can't handle it very well? | 21:06 |
| mka | gabriel_, what root filesystem? | 21:06 |
| ikonia | Dreakon: the most common problem with that is using an incorrect video card configuration | 21:06 |
| mka | gabriel_, are we still talking about NTFS here? | 21:06 |
| guntbert | !details | dogg | 21:06 |
| ubottu | dogg: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 21:06 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | Dreakon, the GUI is designed to be AWSOME, but sometimes the Fonts Definitions are not quite as expected | 21:06 |
| gabriel_ | mka: i mean the os partition | 21:06 |
| RocketLauncher | In Keyboard Shortcuts, I made a command use Ctrl+V by mistake. Now Ctrl+V doesn't work for pasting. How do I get this working again? | 21:07 |
| mediaprodigy | UbuntuStudio takes a long time to download / install.. i did not believe it but wow | 21:07 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | mediaprodigy, pretty awsome an? | 21:07 |
| gabriel_ | mka: with mount point / | 21:07 |
| Dreakon | ikonia: How would one find the correct video card configuration for my Intel GMA 4500HD chipset? | 21:07 |
| w3l54666 | i need some help guys | 21:07 |
| mka | gabriel_, that is not NTFS thats probably ext3/4 which does not have the uid=??? option | 21:07 |
| agliodbs | AndreMorro[BR]: ok, that's not going to work | 21:07 |
| Leoneof | hi, i did share ppp0 (internet connection) to eth0 (internal network), so when i disconnect eth0, the ppp0 will disconnect too, why? | 21:07 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | agliodbs, why is that? | 21:07 |
| agliodbs | old ubuntu is crashing too fast | 21:07 |
| ikonia | Dreakon: is this your first step into linux ? | 21:07 |
| zleap | i think its ctrl-shift v on my system,m it is for the console anyway | 21:07 |
| mka | gabriel_, that one is fine as it is | 21:07 |
| gabriel_ | mka: yes it's ext4. | 21:07 |
| annex | so um... | 21:07 |
| agliodbs | is there any way to make this work via DD? | 21:07 |
| gabriel_ | mka: ok thanks :) | 21:07 |
| Dreakon | ikonia: Yes :) | 21:07 |
| w3l54666 | when i plug my usb wifi card in it says disconected | 21:07 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | Leonard, the Connectino need your ethernet boad (eth0) to connect... withou eth0 theres no ppp0 | 21:08 |
| mediaprodigy | AndreMorro[BR]: its cool.. nowhere near finished.. installign | 21:08 |
| w3l54666 | i used the correct drivers for it and so on | 21:08 |
| ikonia | Dreakon: ok, let me think how to explain this to you, intel is good, it's normally detected and configured fine but it certainly doesn't hurt to check | 21:08 |
| w3l54666 | i just dont know what to do | 21:08 |
| mka | gabriel_, and it would be dangerous you try to change the ownership and permissions at that level | 21:08 |
| vAd0r | ok now i get grup then i get the circle logo. then monitor goes away | 21:08 |
| Leoneof | AndreMorro[BR]: ppp0 is for wlan0 | 21:08 |
| vAd0r | do i need to install monitor drivers or something? | 21:08 |
| annex | I tried to install 9.04 on my laptop to dual boot with Win 7... it failed, and now my DVD drive won't open :S | 21:08 |
| gabriel_ | mka: can i do umount -a? | 21:08 |
| rick_langerak | hay | 21:08 |
| RocketLauncher | In Keyboard Shortcuts, I made a command use Ctrl+V by mistake. Now Ctrl+V doesn't work for pasting. How do I get this working again? | 21:09 |
| mka | gabriel_, did you change something ? | 21:09 |
| rick_langerak | i have got a problem with emesene | 21:09 |
| gabriel_ | mka: yes. the uid stuff for two drives | 21:09 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | Leoneof, so I have no idea... | 21:09 |
| gabriel_ | mka: partitions | 21:09 |
| ikonia | Dreakon: ok, lets give this a try are you ready ? | 21:09 |
| agliodbs | feh, Dell BIOS does not include memtest | 21:09 |
| rick_langerak | if i send a messege there comes : messege failures | 21:09 |
| === wish^ is now known as ^wish | ||
| mka | gabriel_, mount -a will not work, you may need to umount each and remount it again or else use the 'remount' option to mount | 21:10 |
| gabriel_ | mka: i tried to just mount -a again, but it didn't change the ownership | 21:10 |
| dogg | guntbert, i was following this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx and in the end it just isnt working.. though http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#Known_PCI_devices says it should be support to some exstent. see 14e4:4315 | 21:10 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | agliodbs, no... but if you could make the bootable-usb it would exist | 21:10 |
| Dreakon | ikonia: Unfortunately I'm not on Ubuntu at the moment, I've since returned to Windows. | 21:10 |

| ikonia | Dreakon: doyou want to give me a nudge when you treutn to ubuntu ? | 21:10 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | agliodbs, catch what? | 21:10 |
| ikonia | Dreakon: sorry, return to linux | 21:10 |
| mka | gabriel_, 'sudo umount /media/bigmomma && sudo mount -a" | 21:10 |
| Leoneof | AndreMorro[BR]: :( | 21:10 |
| Dreakon | ikonia: It's not installed at the moment. :P I am asking moreso out of curiousity. | 21:11 |
| rick_langerak | @all : he XD i ve still got a problem | 21:11 |
| annex | :\ | 21:11 |
| ikonia | Dreakon: ahh, well, no, the gui is normally very fast if the video card is support and correctly configured | 21:11 |
| dogg | guntbert, sorry i didnt know if i was sposed to start just going off about my issue.. | 21:11 |
| Dreakon | ikonia: Hmm... I see. I was told there are no better drivers for Intel cards than the defaults. | 21:12 |
| gabriel_ | mka: it remounted, but nautilus still says owner is root :( | 21:12 |

| Lord-Readman | xz-utils, i have just been speaking with the dev, and he says that the ubuntu version is too old and not safe for my data and i should upgrade | 21:13 |
| josheee12 | has anybody seen error 22 when install grub from live usb? | 21:14 |
| Lord-Readman | so wanted to make a request to the ubuntu maintainer, ikonia | 21:14 |
| ikonia | Lord-Readman: look on launchpad.net for the package, then use the contact / maintainer options | 21:14 |
| Dreakon | ikonia: I see :-/ Unfortunately between the slow running of the GUI, the fact it made my laptop uncomfortably hot and my need for a few windows programs with no workarounds, I've gone back to Windows. I really liked Ubuntu though. | 21:14 |
| annex | it's cool... I'll just be over here... not being able to do work for linux class... | 21:14 |
| ikonia | Dreakon: no problem | 21:15 |
| Dreakon | ikonia: If there's options that could fix one or two of those problems, I'm tempted to try again lol. | 21:15 |
| ikonia | annex: the most common reason for your drive not opening is a mounted cd | 21:15 |

| maxfiles | ikonia, updates are security and updates enabled, else disabled | 21:22 |

| crystalblue | my graphics card is semi broke in it, and I just want it for an internet device. | 21:23 |

| ikonia | maxfiles: again sensible, no problems | 21:23 |
| crystalblue | but OSX tiger sucks for it | 21:23 |

| gabriel_ | mka: anyway, thanks for all your help! Now i can probably use linuxDC++ with the partition as a download drive... | 21:27 |
| mka | gabriel_, no prob | 21:27 |
| gabriel_ | mka: oh, so that's why they set it to 0777... i see :) | 21:27 |
| mka | gabriel_, its the default | 21:28 |

| maxfiles | ikonia it says update-rc.d: /etc/init.d/start: file does not exist | 21:28 |
| gabriel_ | mka: i have just installed ubuntu 64 bit, so that's why i need to setup EVERTHING again, haha... phew :D | 21:28 |

| teg | 21:30 | |
| ikonia | teg: if you have to ask - don't to it, you won't get an performance boost and it's dangerous | 21:31 |
| mka | gabriel_, a umask removes the permissions you do not want to grant | 21:31 |
| VirusTB | whats the difference between an CD that says x86 and one that says x64 ?? | 21:31 |
| maxfiles | ikonia typed sudo update-rc.d start apache2 start 2 and that does not work | 21:31 |
| VirusTB | how do I tell which Ubuntu I need? | 21:31 |
| ikonia | maxfiles: what does it say | 21:31 |

| Zteam | Hello | 21:37 |
| VirusTB | jrib, other way arround srry * | 21:37 |
| jrib | VirusTB: 64bit lets you use more ram | 21:37 |
| ScoobyDoo | jrib That way isn't permanent, You see its some software, And i want a nice icon to go with it | 21:37 |
| agliodbs | I've googled for similar problems but all of those words are so common I can't get useful results | 21:37 |
| agliodbs | help? | 21:37 |
| ralaaz | what mean tor-gpg?? | 21:37 |
| obaid | can i make the deb package, install, then dpkg -r so it removes it all | 21:37 |
| jrib | ScoobyDoo: why isn't it permanent? | 21:37 |
| DopeGhoti | VirusTB: a 64bit system can access more RAM and move large chunks of data more quickly (potentially). That's the main difference. | 21:37 |

| steve_ | <Schui> if you use the redirection symbol '>>' you can pipe the contents of the first file into the second, im sure that you could do this more elegantly, cat file2.csv >> file1.csv will dump the contents of file 2 at the end of file1 | 22:04 |

| steve_ | WeCan no worries let me know if no joy | 22:30 |
| SonicAD | the thing I'd installed was the Firefox plugin; that was all I could find relating to it for x64. | 22:30 |
| Imran-UK | livusr, you can use lsusb -D <devive id> to query it more closely | 22:30 |
| GilJ | archboxman ah I think I fixed the issue, switched the mode from interface to ad hoc | 22:30 |
| archboxman | GilJ: still to easy to break security on both wpa and wep... | 22:31 |
| GilJ | archboxman infrastructure* | 22:31 |
| steve__ | ive got a q for someone who knopws wlan driver for ubuntu 8 | 22:31 |
| GilJ | archboxman, biker: thanks for helping:) | 22:31 |
| archboxman | GilJ: that is not what you want refer to the ubuntu site | 22:31 |
| archboxman | hold on | 22:31 |
| archboxman | !wep | 22:31 |
| ubottu | WEP is totally insecure, don't use it, the full Wireless Documentation for Ubuntu can be found at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 22:31 |
| steve_ | <archboxman> was under the impression that wpa was mostly secure, with only minor weaknesses in special circumstances???? | 22:31 |
| Izinucs | SonicAD: ok.. you might uninstall that and reinstall the ubuntu-restricted-extras.. typically the latter will take care of FF on its own.. no need to go through installing another plugin.. try disabling the plugin and restarting FF to see what happens.. then go through the motions for what I just mentioned. | 22:32 |
| spriizha | hello. I have a question - my gf have ubuntu now, but she is behind router ( which is not accessable for port forwarding ) - is there any possibility to have remote access to that computer if im using winxp? | 22:32 |
| steve_ | and yes WEP is worse than open almost! | 22:32 |
| steve__ | can someone tell me how to get a netgear usb wifi device to pick up on my ubuntu 8.04 system | 22:32 |
| archboxman | steve_: they tons of weeknesses in wep or wpa | 22:32 |
| Izinucs | spriizha: not without port forwarding | 22:32 |
| maxfiles | I can not get 20 services to start | 22:32 |
| archboxman | I can scan and pick off messages easy hack your router | 22:32 |
| wnstn | I am getting really slow usb transfer speeds, can anyone please help diagnose the problem? | 22:32 |
| Imran-UK | ubottu, sometimes you dont have a choice. sadly some wireless devices will only play nice with wep, eg. nintendo ds | 22:33 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 22:33 |
| steve__ | hello is anyone listening | 22:33 |
| archboxman | !wpa | 22:33 |
| Izinucs | steve__: no | 22:33 |
| ubottu | Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 22:33 |
| livusr | Imran-UK: thanks, i | 22:33 |
| spriizha | Izinucs but isn't there any chance to have something like p2p stuff? | 22:33 |
| livusr | Imran-UK: i'll try | 22:33 |
| steve_ | <archboxman> fair enough, got an idle interest in wireless security anywhere in particular for WPA weakness info?4 | 22:33 |
| Imran-UK | livusr, np. also try lsub -v (be warned, it will print very verbose info) | 22:33 |
| jenda | Could someone help me diagnose a DVD burning error? The brasero log is here: http://pastebin.com/m98118b5 | 22:34 |
| jenda | It happens all the time :( | 22:34 |
| SonicAD | I'd already gotten rid of the x64 plugin earlier so moving straight to reinstalling extras | 22:34 |
| AlbertEinstein | fuck yea? | 22:34 |
| Izinucs | spriizha: maybe with P2P but you'd have to use someone else's server.. unless she connects directly to you.. you won't be able to connect to her directly without her initiating it. | 22:34 |
| Izinucs | SonicAD: is it any flash oriented site that's giving you issues.. like youtube? | 22:34 |
| === m|temp is now known as DDwi | ||
| colman | hello | 22:35 |
| SonicAD | yeah, that, anything with flash applications, hulu... | 22:35 |
| colman | i need help | 22:35 |
| josephnexus | Imran-UK: how can I see the dmesg logs from the last boot? | 22:35 |
| colman | my cube doesn't work at all and i have enabled and everthing | 22:35 |
| archboxman | steve_: seeing how I was in the Coast Guard as Telecommunications Specialist ... I dealt with wifi, radio signal and top secret crypto ... Trust me when I say I can pickup a stupid cellphone call with a baby monitor or ponieer hand radio | 22:35 |
| spriizha | it's not like secret. she could know that i'm connecting. She is like week on unix, i just need to check some stuff and lags, but i'm going to here place only @ weekends ;/ | 22:36 |
| josephnexus | Imran-UK: i looked at /var/log/dmesg.0 but didn't see anything indicitive of the wifi card | 22:36 |
| SonicAD | YouTube video is mostly fine when not full-screen, but still a bit freezy | 22:36 |
| steve_ | <archboxman> no offence intended, just interested ;) | 22:36 |
| SonicAD | full-screen is pretty much unwatchable | 22:36 |
| Imran-UK | josephnexus, less /var/log/dmesg and then it is normally numbered .0 for last boot, .1.gz for the time before that etc | 22:37 |
| SonicAD | and remains the same after reinstalling the extras package | 22:37 |
| Izinucs | SonicAD: are you using the daily build of FF? | 22:37 |
| josephnexus | yeah | 22:37 |
| archboxman | Best way is to study the certifaction exam material give me a second I find it | 22:37 |
| SonicAD | I'd upgraded to 3.6 final | 22:37 |
| josephnexus | not seeing anything about the wirelss card Imran-UK | 22:37 |
| josephnexus | i checked both | 22:37 |
| steve_ | thanx :) | 22:37 |
| josephnexus | the last boot and the current one | 22:37 |
| SonicAD | but it's been like this since I switched about a month ago, just didn't know where to ask | 22:37 |
| josephnexus | the only way I can get to this point is by removing the card, so I looked at the last boot, and still didn't see anything | 22:38 |
| SonicAD | switched to Ubuntu from Windows, I mean | 22:38 |
| justaguy | If I don't want apache to start on boot what do i change? | 22:38 |
| Izinucs | SonicAD: the reason I ask is because suddenly my FF won't do flash at all.. it's the daily build.. however Konqueror works fine. | 22:38 |
| archboxman | steve_: this is what you want to study http://www.cwnp.com/community/ | 22:38 |
| SonicAD | I don't think it's just Firefox, but let me check in Chrome... | 22:38 |
| wnstn | I am getting really slow usb transfer speeds, can anyone please help diagnose the problem? | 22:38 |
| steve_ | archboxman> ahh nice one - much appreciated! | 22:38 |
| archboxman | steve_: Also look into Ham Radio Operator certifaction ... There manual is another big one and files in the wholes | 22:39 |
| maxfiles | how do you downgrade from 9.1 to 8.04LTS? | 22:39 |
| Imran-UK | josephnexus, hmmm, i'm running out of ideas then | 22:39 |
| SonicAD | same issue in Chrome | 22:39 |
| josephnexus | it's just puzzling, I've never seen this happen | 22:39 |
| SonicAD | I don't have a particularly powerful system, I just know it worked fine in Windows heh | 22:39 |
| Imran-UK | josephnexus, i'd look at the hardware differences assuming this and the other ubuntu workstation are the same ubuntu versions | 22:39 |
| josephnexus | SonicAD: flash under linux still has a ways to go thanks to adobe | 22:40 |
| archboxman | steve_: I know you can pick that CWNP book up at barnes and noble | 22:40 |
| Izinucs | SonicAD: you may be limited to smaller windows then.. | 22:40 |
| josephnexus | they are the same version of ubuntu | 22:40 |
| josephnexus | but the hardware is very different | 22:40 |
| Squeese | how can I list all process running by name? | 22:40 |
| wnstn | Squeese: top | 22:40 |
| SonicAD | eh, I can deal with that | 22:40 |
| josephnexus | ps aux | 22:40 |
| SonicAD | thanks for the help though | 22:40 |
| josephnexus | squeese | 22:40 |
| josephnexus | psaux is what you want squeese (sorry.... didn't know if you saw it) | 22:41 |
| Squeese | ya, saw it, thx :) | 22:41 |
| Imran-UK | josephnexus, i would maybe google "wireless pci card" + ubuntu + problem and see what comes up, sorry | 22:41 |
| Izinucs | SonicAD: sure.. remember in here is good to use the nick of the person you're talking to so your messages don't get lost in the noise.. enter the first part and hit TAB to autocomplete.. | 22:41 |
| josephnexus | i did... all of it has to do with it not working | 22:41 |
| steve_ | archboxman: i will check that out :) | 22:41 |
| Imran-UK | "wireless pci card" is your model number | 22:41 |

| ubuntuguest | hello, I have tried different remedies to fix the display settings to extend my monitor in a desktop dell optiplex gx620 | 22:42 |
| SonicAD | Izinucs: ah ok, I tend to do that but I saw the rules and the whole "don't go looking for just one person for help" thing and wasn't sure if that'd be appropriate | 22:42 |
| Izinucs | SonicAD: that's how you highlight your message for the other person to easily see. | 22:42 |
| zamba | it's a server, but i'm unsure if it's a physical box or just a virtual image of some sort | 22:42 |
| ubuntuguest | I can't finx it, how can I do it? | 22:42 |
| Imran-UK | josephnexus, there is a good page on the ubuntu wiki listing all the wireless chipsets known to work, there may be a report there on how to overcome problems | 22:42 |
| Izinucs | SonicAD: it is when you've established a conversation.. or need to answer someone directly. | 22:42 |
| steve_ | <zamba> you should be able to find info in /proc somewhere | 22:42 |
| josephnexus | this chipset is supported :-| | 22:42 |
| josephnexus | i appreciate all of the help | 22:42 |
| josephnexus | i might just go buy a cheap usb one and see what happens | 22:42 |
| josephnexus | maybe this particular motherboard doesn't like this particular card | 22:42 |
| Imran-UK | or go wired :) | 22:43 |
| SonicAD | Izinucs: gotcha. Ta. | 22:43 |
| Izinucs | SonicAD: np :) | 22:43 |
| archboxman | steve_: Just relize that is a lot of info to grasp in a short time you would need to test out most of the theories in the book... Some of the material was even a bit over my head when it comes to wireless routers... There are just so man types... good luck ;) | 22:43 |

| frostburn | agliodbs, then it should work, i'd still try unetbootin ... i've always had success with that otherwise, not sure how else i can help... might be a hardware issue too... my dell doesn't boot from the latest iso either | 23:03 |
| Flea_ | erUSUL how do i do that? I have the add-in installed in tomboy, but the option to do that to a note is nowhere to be found. | 23:03 |

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+) | 23:23 |

| steve_ | <grkblood13> just a thought vlc is able to do a lot when it comes to reencoding, never used it tho | 23:23 |
| grkblood13 | yea, i stay away form vlc when possible | 23:24 |
| grkblood13 | not my favorite app | 23:24 |
| kerpali86 | coachj: then the problem is you xorg file | 23:24 |
| tey | what about mplayer? | 23:24 |
| steve_ | tey: to re-encode video? | 23:24 |
| archboxman | steve_: The biggest thing none of the books will tell you is if you live near a airport or radio station there signal is over 30MHz which has enough power to knock out any commerial grade device unless you sheild your phone.... A phone sends a signal above radio station power, but your phone doesn't have enough power to knock out electronic devices.. But the radio station has a seperate amplifier which makes the signal strong enou | 23:24 |
| coachj | kerpali86: what should i do? | 23:25 |
| tey | oh, u need re-encode, so lives ? do u know lives? its ez :P | 23:25 |

| Dreakon | ikonia I think it was, you around? :P | 23:30 |
| purpleGecko | Blue1: there will be a directive in there, called DocumentRoot, which is set to /var/www, you just need to change it to the directory you want | 23:30 |
| kerpali86 | coachj: now the next steps you need to remember/write down, don't do this yet. First you need to kill X, Cntrl+alt+f1, then login again, and then type sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop. Then install your drivers from terminal prompt.. ./<executable catalyst file> | 23:31 |

| kerpali86 | Dreakon: ok then using swap is not slowing down your Ubuntu. It's def. your graphic drivers then at the very least. Also do the 'top' command and see if any processes are runnin gat like 90 or 100% | 23:44 |
| tey | the slowly windows are because graphic card, ram should not be problem with 2gb XD | 23:44 |

| paradox_ | how would I go about making the audio in my flashplayer work? I get video fine, no audio though. | 23:49 |
| Blue1 | ah this is complicated | 23:49 |
| Dreakon | are there official intel drivers for ubuntu? | 23:49 |
| Diverdude | Pici, perfect....what about partitions and such? Will virtualbox partion my harddisk or how does that work? | 23:49 |
| Pici | Diverdude: You'll have to parition the virtual drive | 23:50 |
| purpleGecko | Blue1: it can be :) it should just need those two directives in the apache2.conf file to make it work though (you will need to restart apache though) | 23:50 |
| kerpali86 | Dreakon: they should be included with the ubuntu live CD... I've never heard of problems dealing with internet graphic cards unless they're brand new. | 23:50 |
| HTC | !rs | 23:50 |
| ubottu | Molimo udjite u #ubuntu-rs za pomoc u vezi sa Ubuntuom na srpskom jeziku. | 23:50 |
| kerpali86 | Dreakon: the older it is, the better it works w/ ubuntu. =P | 23:50 |
| Blue1 | purpleGecko: I don;t know this is what I have... | 23:50 |
| Slade- | hey i'm reading https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy but it refers to 2 files that I dont have (/boot/grub/stage1 + 2) do i need to install some package to get them? | 23:51 |
| Pici | Grumman: apt-cache search libmysql | grep dev | 23:51 |
| Diverdude | Pici, the virtual drive? | 23:51 |
| Dreakon | The older the graphics card or older the drivers? lol | 23:51 |
| Dreakon | should I try one of these on the official site? | 23:51 |
| kerpali86 | Dreakon: old graphic card.. try manualling installing the drivers from intel's site | 23:51 |
| kerpali86 | Dreakon: manually* | 23:51 |
| Blue1 | purpleGecko: last line of apache2.conf -- # try to use ~username/public_html gu 01/26/2009 | 23:51 |

| deshymers1 | I was wondering is there much that can be done to decrease the time it takes for my netbook to connect to my wireless router? it doesnt take a terrible amount of time to connect but I was wondering if there was much that can be done to help it? | 23:52 |
| Pici | Diverdude: Well, you aren't making a real install. vbox will create a file that will hold your disk image. Then you can use the Windows installer to partition, or you could even boot a gparted live CD and partition with that if you want. | 23:52 |
| Pici | Diverdude: More help can be found in #vbox | 23:52 |
| phantomcircuit | uh so i added a host entry to /etc/hsots | 23:53 |
| === wish^ is now known as ^wish | ||
| purpleGecko | Blue1: paste your config file in http://ubuntu.pastebin.com and paste the URL here | 23:53 |
| phantomcircuit | but `host example.com` is still returning the old ip | 23:53 |
| phantomcircuit | wat do? | 23:53 |
| Grumman | Pici i am having problems installing a program on linux | 23:53 |

| panfist | how can i set the password for the 'ubuntu' user on the live cd? | 23:53 |
| Grumman | bugzilla | 23:53 |
| panfist | or...is it a default value? i thought it was randomized...i could be wrong...? | 23:54 |
| Pici | Grumman: Its in the repositories: sudo apt-get bugzilla3 | 23:54 |
| Grumman | well, i started with this: http://www.bugzilla.org/docs/3.4/en/html/installation.html | 23:54 |
| chelz | what's the difference between the repos/components/distros karmic-updates and karmic? | 23:55 |
| kerpali86 | Dreakon: probably, I can't tell 100%. Which chipset does your mobo use? X45? | 23:55 |
| NightCor3 | how this dock called http://up196.siz.co.il/up1/tumlmdnzrtlw.png ? :( | 23:55 |
| Grumman | why do they have a big long install document if all you have to do is sudo apt-get bugzilla3 | 23:55 |
| === psyk is now known as neconide | ||
| === Suhail_ is now known as Suhail | ||
| Pici | Grumman: I don't have a web browser available to use at the moment :( sorry. | 23:55 |
| Grumman | k | 23:55 |
| chelz | NightCor3: try #windows | 23:55 |
| Dreakon | X4500HD | 23:55 |
| Grumman | well, basically it tells you to install perl, mysql, apache, bugzilla, and necessary perl modules | 23:56 |
| Blue1 | purpleGecko: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m4dfee17c | 23:56 |
| coachj | kerpali86: you stll here? | 23:56 |
| kerpali86 | Dreakon: that's just the model number, according to wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_GMA#GMA_X4500 it uses the the G43 chipset | 23:56 |
| Dreakon | im not sure how to check the chipset... | 23:57 |
| kerpali86 | coachj: yah I'm still here | 23:57 |
| grkblood13 | is 9.10 more stable than 9.04? | 23:57 |
| kerpali86 | coachj: did it work? | 23:57 |
| purpleGecko | Blue1: looks good. add "UserDir disabled root" at the end (minus the quotes) | 23:57 |
| coachj | kerpali86: should the drivers be .rpm | 23:57 |
| klausf | simple question I have xorg and NO windows manager at all. How can I configure the screen size? | 23:58 |
| Slade- | guess i'll play "guess which package this file is installed in" | 23:58 |
| chelz | grkblood13: the only distinction made is between LTS releases and non-LTS releases | 23:58 |
| chelz | grkblood13: so 8.04 and 10.04 are LTS | 23:58 |
| kerpali86 | that's just the executible, it's just a package manager, like .deb is for ubuntu, .rpm it for other OSs but you still make it work w/ ubuntu | 23:58 |
| jordy240 | I just plugged in my headphones and was listing to music. well I went to watch a youtube video, and the sound was 2000% louder than the music and nearly destroyed my eardrums. this is exactly why linux will never ever be on the standard everyday desktop; because it's more concerned with looking 'leet' than actually functioning | 23:58 |
| chelz | klausf: in xorg.conf | 23:58 |
| obladda | klausf: ctrl-alt-plus | 23:58 |
| coachj | kerpali86: ok going slow | 23:58 |
| nickkontos | hello, i have a problem with my tv card- i can't hear anything, i have installed and played with gnome-alsa-mixer but nothing... i get this http://paste.ubuntu.com/363530/ with lspci, please help, I am at a friends pc and I am trying to show him that ubuntu can replace msbill :p | 23:58 |
| coachj | kerpali86: ill let u know | 23:59 |
| kerpali86 | coachK sudo aptitude install alien; sudo alien -i package_file.rpm | 23:59 |
| mka | grkblood13, why asking? | 23:59 |
| chelz | jordy240: go into audio settings | 23:59 |
| obladda | klausf: ctrl-alt-minus on the numeric keypad | 23:59 |
| grkblood13 | b/c im sceptical about upgrading | 23:59 |
| NightCor3 | how this dock called http://up196.siz.co.il/up1/tumlmdnzrtlw.png ? :( | 23:59 |
| grkblood13 | b/c ive had ubuntu break on me before | 23:59 |
| coachj | kerpali86: what is that? | 23:59 |
| kerpali86 | Dreakon: those drivers should work. go ahead and install it | 23:59 |
| === ^wish is now known as wish^ | ||
| grkblood13 | and 9.04 has been pretty solid | 23:59 |
| klausf | im' running in virtualbox so no idea how to press ctr-alt- + | 23:59 |
| jordy240 | chelz: sorry, but how does that help? at all? | 23:59 |
| kerpali86 | coachj: It's how to use .rpm files w/ Ubuntu | 23:59 |
| jolaren | How do I format all my hdd's except for the one I'm using? | 23:59 |
| coachj | ok | 23:59 |
