| Lostinspace_46 | onetinsoldier> That may be thhe one. I was looking for libx-dev...thanks | 00:12 |
| ibuclaw | futurama140, it should just auto-mount | 00:12 |

| boritek | hello i have installed mac4lin theme, and it changed the ubuntu notification too to the older uglier one | 00:16 |
| Redache | hdtdi: It should be in the repos | 00:16 |
| boritek | how can i revert to the new notificaiton look? | 00:16 |
| Redache | hdtdi: mysql-server should be what you need | 00:16 |
| boritek | if i choose the standard ubuntu theme it doesnt come back | 00:16 |
| CraigGB | magnus, the easiest way to find out what is causing the black screen is by installing the driver then look around on your system for information that might explain what is causing it, if you still have trouble you can just edit xorg.conf (if that still exists) and swith the driva back to vesa, i was hoping someone who has more of a idea then me would offer to help you though (anyone?), maybe its a issue with your monitor | 00:17 |
| CraigGB | being picked up wrongly, there are a lot of guides on the net for configuring fglrx, though i would have thought you should get decent all round/3d peformance with the open 'radeon' driver with a 4800 card | 00:17 |
| hdtdi | redache - apt-get install mysql-server is installing mysql-server-5.1 and i have the error msg :) | 00:17 |
| CraigGB | actually i think its the 'radeonhd' driver for those cards | 00:17 |
| boritek | anyone? | 00:18 |
| magnus | CraigGB: dont think its my monitor cuz i have two monitors up runing with clone | 00:18 |
| szymon_ | Hi guys. My laptop temperature is going crazy. :S I mean just one part of laptop. I have Toshiba 350-12A and there is really hot near touchpad and "space key". I hear fans etc. Rest of laptop is "cold". Any suggestions? | 00:18 |
| hax0r1 | any idea why print screen button doesn't work at all on my lappy? | 00:18 |
| hax0r1 | can't use sysrq at all :( | 00:18 |
| boritek | szymon_: look for processes which are the highest | 00:18 |
| boritek | cpu users | 00:18 |
| Dr_Willis | You may need to use the special fn key in combo with it - depending on the laptop layout hax0r1 | 00:19 |
| boritek | how can i get back ubuntu notification theme? | 00:20 |
| CraigGB | magnus, have you tried disconnecting one monitor while installing the driver and then rebooting and seeing if that works before connecting the second monitor? | 00:20 |
| hax0r1 | Dr_Willis: hmm, prt sc is not one of my fn keys.... | 00:20 |
| TommyNavara | hi guys i want to create a nas with a old laptop and ubuntu. Any advice? | 00:20 |
| szymon_ | CPU is 1%, highest is Xorg and Compiz. | 00:20 |
| mlistus | hi all | 00:20 |
| renfox | :disconnect | 00:20 |
| Welshy-Rob | szymon_, i'd recommend getting htop to view your processes you can list in order of cpu usage etc | 00:20 |
| magnus | CraigGB: im sure thats not causing the problem | 00:20 |
| Dr_Willis | TommyNavara: setting up a samba server is rather straight forward. once you learn the samba basics.. | 00:20 |
| renfox | does anyone know how to change the default size of a terminal? | 00:20 |
| Welshy-Rob | szymon_, what part of the laptop is it ? | 00:21 |
| mlistus | anyone here w/ experience w/ OpenQRM? | 00:21 |
| Dr_Willis | renfox: If you mean for like gnome-terminal - one way to do it is to use compiz feature to set initial window properties. | 00:21 |
| DemoOn | where can i find linux-headers? | 00:21 |
| Dr_Willis | renfox: its also possible gnome-termional takes command line options to set its size | 00:21 |
| magnus | now i just want to get this over with so i can install cod again and play | 00:21 |
| mabus | ** ERROR **: Couldn't create /home/jail/./home/code/.irssi directory | 00:21 |
| szymon_ | I'm not sure, probably graphic card? As I've said its between space key and touchpad, i really feel heat when navigating on touchpad. | 00:22 |
| mabus | how come irssi is trying to make stuff in the aboslute path instead of the jailed path? i copied irssi and it's dependencies from my system but for some reason it's trying to create the configuration files in a directory the user cannot see | 00:22 |
| renfox | Dr_Willis: i have issues with compiz and the nvidia drivers (i need dual screens) - is there a .config file that I can alter? | 00:22 |
| Welshy-Rob | szymon_, could it be the battery ? that's the only other thing i can think of | 00:23 |
| mlistus | TommyNavara: try ebox | 00:23 |
| Dr_Willis | renfox: i use compiz and dual monitors right here on my 8800gtsxxx using twinview. - works very well. There might be some gnome-terminal command line options to set the initial size. see 'gnome-terminal --help' for starters | 00:23 |
| TommyNavara | Dr_Willis: is difficult? i need any special device? i have the laptotp and 2-3 external usb hdd 3,5.. | 00:23 |
| UncleD | I just updated ubuntu and now Lightthpd loads when someone goes to my DOMAINS port 80 instead of apache. Please help??? | 00:23 |
| CraigGB | magnus, okay, i have seen a problem like yours when a friend had their tv and monitor connected at the same time and it decided it was going to use some totally stupid resolution, yours might not be a resolution issue though, maybe its worth trying to run aticonfig on a xorg.conf and then manually editing it untill you have something that looks set up correctly | 00:23 |
| jonzbcc | hello I'm getting redirected to my ISP's "domain not found" search-results, when I do google searches, or really any major site (its comppletely at random, and very frustrating) | 00:23 |
| renfox | Dr_Willis: thanks for the tip1 | 00:23 |
| renfox | ! | 00:23 |
| Dr_Willis | TommyNavara: set the usb devices to mount via fstab. learn some samba or nfs basics.. not too hard | 00:23 |

| Welshy-Rob | jonzbcc, because ive found in the past that random errors like that are offen solved by updating and re-starting , else you can re-install firefox somehow or get a different web browser ? | 00:26 |
| jonzbcc | oh, nvm -- actually I just ran it again and now there's updates (there weren't a couple days ago -- i've checked a few times) | 00:26 |

| mlistus | TommyNavara: good | 00:38 |
| mlistus | TommyNavara: then let's start | 00:38 |
| mlistus | TommyNavara: did you set up fstab? | 00:38 |
| Welshy-Rob | jonzbcc, how are you connected now ? | 00:38 |
| TommyNavara | mlistus the real problem is to get used with this | 00:38 |
| mlistus | TommyNavara: this? | 00:38 |
| UncleD | I updated my ubuntu DISTRO last night and now lightthpd landing page is loading instead of apache???? | 00:38 |
| jonzbcc | Welshy-Rob: there's 5 other computers (wireless and wired) in the house -- they dont' have any problems. -- I'm connected now via the problem laptop. but again, its intermittent. | 00:38 |
| TommyNavara | mlistus samba and other garments | 00:39 |
| jonzbcc | Welshy-Rob: I can spend 15 minutes between gmail and google searches, then when I need it the *most* I'll click "inbox" .. or "page 2" of the results and suddenly get redirected to my ISP's domain-not-found | 00:39 |
| erUSUL | UncleD: that could have not happened automatically. my guess is that you installed lighttpd (and that presumibily removed apache ) | 00:40 |
| mlistus | TommyNavara: just go one step and only one step at a time, and read the documentation, you'll have absolutely no problem | 00:40 |
| mlistus | TommyNavara: did you mount your usb drives already? | 00:40 |
| Welshy-Rob | jonzbcc, it could be either a o/s error or say your network card is malfunctioning, have you tried using a different distro purely to test ? | 00:41 |
| Welshy-Rob | jonzbcc, as in a boot cd ? | 00:42 |
| TommyNavara | mlistus: I can't do this now this is not the future nas machine and here the clock says 01:41 AM and i'm little tired | 00:42 |
| mlistus | TommyNavara: no prob! | 00:42 |
| skullcandy2 | i restarted my router and computer, that didn't work | 00:42 |

| ecanto | somebody use dell inspiron? | 00:53 |
| skullcandy2 | @bazhang no just firefox | 00:53 |
| bazhang | ecanto, how about a more specific question | 00:53 |
| ecanto | bazhang, button eject cd-rom not work. | 00:54 |
| skullcandy2 | resetting my router did nothing, resetting network connections did nothing. | 00:54 |
| bazhang | skullcandy2, and firefox setting dont have proxy set? | 00:55 |
| skullcandy2 | no proxy's for firefox, only for my pidgin messenger | 00:55 |
| skullcandy2 | hey nm it works!!! | 00:56 |
| bazhang | ecanto, does the cd/dvd on the desktop appear? | 00:57 |

| bazhang | balas, do you have ubuntu-restricted-extras installed? | 00:57 |
| mithro | it's not mounted or anything | 00:57 |
| skullcandy2 | i forgot i had a proxy on XD | 00:57 |
| === IdleOne_ is now known as IdleOne | ||
| faileas | mithro: try using lsof to check what's using it? | 00:57 |
| skullcandy2 | it went back to the old outdate proxy i had open | 00:58 |
| bazhang | skullcandy2, so there was a proxy | 00:58 |
| skullcandy2 | i forgot to put it back on "direct connection" | 00:58 |
| nibbler | skullcandy2, you owe a round of beer to #ubuntu now | 00:58 |
| jrib | faileas: easiest way to accomplish that is probably to just use manpages.ubuntu.com | 00:58 |
| skullcandy2 | anything u guys need? | 00:58 |
| yotta911 | ecanto, try type 'eject' in terminal. | 00:58 |
| bazhang | faileas, man pages exist in html format on the web | 00:58 |
| faileas | that would work, i suppose | 00:58 |
| mithro | faileas: nothing according to lsof - which is the weird part | 00:58 |

| ubottu | magnus, please see my private message | 01:06 |
| wolter | magnus, not me, but talk right | 01:06 |
| renegaid | so 4gb for swap | 01:06 |
| blakkheim | renegaid: no | 01:06 |
| ChogyDan | renegaid: if you want to hibernate, you need at least 8 | 01:06 |
| wolter | renegaid, well, given that you have so much ram, i would do it anything between 4 and 2 gb | 01:06 |
| Santisnight | how do i disable CPU Scaling? ubuntu 9.10, Intel pentium 4 CPU | 01:07 |
| wolter | ChogyDan, thats not true | 01:07 |
| blakkheim | renegaid: do you need support for hibernation, aka suspend-to-disk? | 01:07 |
| thehurley | Dr_Willis: a couple of gdm themes from here: http://gnome-look.org/index.php?xsortmode=high&page=0&xcontentmode=150 | 01:07 |
| wolter | ChogyDan, he would only need 8gb if he went to hibernate with his 8gb full of memory | 01:07 |
| magnus | blakkheim: i have tryed it, i need some one to walk me trew it i have been on theyr website | 01:07 |
| renegaid | I prefer standby | 01:07 |
| wolter | but that is highly unlikely. | 01:07 |
| blakkheim | renegaid: then you don't need any swap | 01:07 |
| wolter | renegaid, if you think you will be using 100% of your ram, then do make swap 8gb | 01:07 |
| Dr_Willis | thehurley: you are ysing ubuntu 9.10? if so - its default gdm is NOT compatiable with the old gdm themes.. | 01:07 |
| renegaid | I always hear it is a good idea to have swap regardless | 01:07 |
| wolter | it is | 01:08 |
| wolter | you never know when you will need to hibernate | 01:08 |
| Dr_Willis | I always put at least 1 512mb swap on every hd. | 01:08 |
| Dr_Willis | I never use hibernate. :) too many issues in the past. | 01:08 |
| Plugh | DOesn't hurt to have swap. How much you need depends on how much RAM you have, and how many applications you run at a time, and the amount of RAM those apps would need. | 01:08 |
| blakkheim | magnus: the instructions on the page the bot PMed you are very easy to follow. it would also help if you took the time to spell out your words correctly. | 01:09 |

| adalal | hey.. anyone knows where bind9 cache results are stored? | 01:19 |
| hyperstream | err, on all the laptops ive run ubuntu on, all i do is disable the flag, then run macchanger -r or macchanger-gtk as sudo, if the flag fails to release the device, ithen proceed to sudo ifconfig wlan0 down, then run macchanger then up it. and also, if you have an extra adapter set to monitor mode( mon0 ) make sure you down that and change the address there too | 01:19 |
| hyperstream | presumida, i do that all with the default network manager etc running | 01:20 |
| hyperstream | presumida, error about device resource busy or in use etc yeah ? | 01:21 |
| presumida | nope hyperstream i don't. sadly, this driver won't support monitor mode :( . I hate this piece of junk. anyway i tried exactly what you do , and also disabling networking and networkmanager but nothing did work, so i guess it's some problem with this card chipset | 01:21 |
| presumida | yeah hyperstream , even when it's disabled i keep getting that message | 01:22 |
| hyperstream | presumida, how are you disable the device, what command ? | 01:22 |
| hyperstream | ing* | 01:22 |
| presumida | ifconfig eth1 down | 01:22 |
| presumida | eth1 is my wifi if | 01:22 |
| hyperstream | and then sudo macchanger -r eth1 | 01:22 |
| hyperstream | still gives you that error ? | 01:23 |
| presumida | yeah | 01:23 |
| presumida | i tried -r, -d, -A, all of em | 01:23 |
| hyperstream | presumida, sounds like ifconfig eth1 down isnt working to properly | 01:24 |
| hyperstream | should turn off when you disable the flag via button on the cover of the laptop | 01:25 |
| presumida | but it looks like it disables it. when you do ifconfig it just lists the enabled ifaces, and after running ifconfit eth1 down and then ifconfig it won't list it, so it's supposed to be down | 01:25 |

| malaphus | Anybody know how to make newly installed ttf fonts show up in xfontsel? They show up in other places like gtk apps, etc... but I can't get them to show up in xfontsel so I can configure my xterm to use them | 01:41 |
| Dr_Willis | malaphus: i recall some command to refresh the font cache.. but its been so long since i last used it.. | 01:42 |

| shazbotmcnasty | Hey #ubuntu - I need a new userchrome.css, or a new usercontent.css for firefox. Though I'm not sure which one... all of the input fields in firefox are black, along with the text being black.... does anyone know where I can get a good userchrome.css??? | 01:43 |
| shazbotmcnasty | or usercontent.css * | 01:44 |
| shazbotmcnasty | :) | 01:44 |

| palanthas | I added a second CPU to my Dell precision 670 running ubuntu 9.10 64bit. After adding the CPU the machine has gotten slower/sluggish. Windows and applications slow the machine down if not lock it up... could this be the cpu or more likely something else I may have down... | 01:45 |
| PingFloyd | seriously though, the userChrome.css file is optional | 01:45 |

| paddy_melon | Dill, I think if you install ubuntu-desktop, it will work | 01:48 |

| LoopBack | iflema, thx | 01:49 |
| Blue1 | Dill: netbook remix? | 01:49 |
| student_modnar | howdeep: what about iwlist scan? | 01:49 |
| CarlFK | photocopy: sort of. I know how to capture/stream, and can stream in flv.. but you need a flash player on the other end | 01:49 |
| PingFloyd | malaphus: xfontsel just shows bitmap font iirc | 01:49 |
| Dill | Blue1: yes | 01:49 |
| paddy_melon | Dill, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop, it's the standard package for GDM in Ubuntu | 01:49 |
| CarlFK | photocopy: how about something that plays in ff3.5? (using html5 video) | 01:49 |
| shazbotmcnasty | PingFloyd, I think it's just that those files don't have the things that I need changed in them - I fixed this before a loooong time ago by getting a userchrome.css from another gtk theme - but I can't find one now :/ | 01:49 |
| photocopy | CarlFK: i think that could work | 01:49 |
| Blue1 | Dill: i use that on my acer - works will no way to get rid of that - you'd have to install desktop ubuntu - it's designed the way it is for a netbook - and it works well for that size machine. | 01:49 |

| PingFloyd | shazbotmcnasty: firefox does some pretty silly things | 01:52 |

| photocopy | holy sh-- carlfk: i got no idea how to use this | 01:55 |
| Dill | paddy_melon: the netbook remix is supposed to be coded to work with an atom processor and maximize it's performance. I just don't like the side dock with the tabs. I miss the desktop space in the regular version. So, I guess I want to keep the processor coding in the netbook remix, but get my "desktop" back. | 01:55 |
| howdeep | student_modnar, not sure where to go from here | 01:55 |
| PingFloyd | shazbotmcnasty: the example file doesn't have anything set, everthing is commented | 01:55 |
| shazbotmcnasty | oh | 01:55 |
| CarlFK | photocopy: don't worry bout it - that's the guts. | 01:55 |
| shazbotmcnasty | I'll fix that then... | 01:55 |
| PingFloyd | shazbotmcnasty: you can use that as a template though (cp it to userChrome.css) and then edit it from there | 01:55 |
| photocopy | CarlFK: I take it im supposed to install DVswitch so i did that... | 01:56 |
| malaphus | PingFloyd: Alright, well I just tried the bitmap version of proggy, fc-cache says "caching, new cache contents: 2 fonts" but they still dont show up in xfontsel | 01:56 |
| CarlFK | photocopy: don't need to, but might come in handy for debugging | 01:56 |
| CarlFK | photocopy: you need DVswitch to mix video streams - like doing pnp | 01:56 |
| PingFloyd | malaphus: what's the font names? | 01:56 |
| photocopy | carlfk: meh, cant hurt i suppose | 01:57 |
| malaphus | ProggyClean and ProggyCleanConsole | 01:57 |
| malaphus | is the file name | 01:57 |
| malaphus | .fon | 01:57 |
| student_modnar | howdeep: it should have either given you a permission denied error for not sudo-ing or the prompt again after ifconfig wlan0 up | 01:58 |
| photocopy | CarlFK: Im supposed to be waiting still, right? im not sure if i missed an instruction or something | 01:58 |
| malaphus | PingFloyd: They show up fine in qt apps, gtk apps, etc... just not xfontsel | 01:58 |
| master | how do i calibrate my touch screen in lucid? | 01:58 |
| hyperstream | master, /join #ubuntu+1 | 01:58 |
| PingFloyd | malaphus: you may want to try the gtk fontsel prog | 01:59 |

| hyperstream | master, its the lucid channel. | 01:59 |
| hyperstream | nps | 01:59 |
| howdeep | student_modnar, tried it again. it came back with SIOCSIFFLAGS: no such file or directory | 02:00 |
| PingFloyd | malaphus: not sure if ubuntu has it, but debian had gtkfontsel | 02:00 |
| hyperstream | howdeep, i get that message all the time, it does nothing, doesnt effect me | 02:00 |
| PingFloyd | malaphus: that would show ones that fontsel wouldn't | 02:00 |
| Scunizi | What the name of the package that was written to be used instead of Tomboy that doesn't make use of Mono? | 02:00 |
| student_modnar | howdeep: when using ifconfig, the name of the device is wlan0 right? | 02:01 |
| Blue1 | Scunizi: gedit? | 02:01 |
| Scunizi | Blue1: no.. that's a text editor.. Tomboy is a note taking app that come "stock" with Ubuntu | 02:02 |
| iflema | Scunizi sticky notes? | 02:02 |
| WhiteWolf_ | connect irc.dareyourmind.net | 02:02 |
| Blue1 | Scunizi: I've never used tomboy -- nuked it like first thing. | 02:02 |
| Scunizi | iflema: nope. that's been out for several years.. this one was written because the author objected to mono | 02:02 |
| Scunizi | written the the last year or so | 02:02 |
| howdeep | student_modnar, yeah. that's what i put in | 02:03 |

| CarlFK | photocopy: http://giss.tv:8000/CarlFK.ogg that should give you a 50k stream of my screen | 02:03 |
| malaphus | PingFloyd: they arent showing up in gtkfontsel either :-( | 02:03 |
| Scunizi | iflema: probably is.. but it doesn't use WikiWords like Tomboy | 02:03 |
| CarlFK | photocopy: 50k doesn't get you much detail, so the text is kinda fuzzy | 02:03 |
| student_modnar | howdeep: well it might be something else when you do it yourself, if that's the case, you could at least probably google that error | 02:04 |
| photocopy | CarlFK: its okay, we're playing super mario world | 02:04 |

| CarlFK | oh yeah, you see my (this thing here) thing :) | 02:06 |
| photocopy | CarlFK: It's not picky, 10 seconds is fine, we're speed running a game, the other guy will probably have some delay too. | 02:06 |

| julia_set | Hi. I installed ubuntu along with windows 7, but now since I'm more focused on learning true linux (commands and stuff), instead of a new distribution, I decided to virtualize another distribution of linux. the thing is, currently the grub has control over the MBR... and the only way I know of removing ubuntu is by deleting its partitions, but that will leave me with a MBR pointing nowhere thus leaving me unable to boot windows 7. I was wondering what | 02:08 |
| photocopy | CarlFK: this is good enough quality, but im not exactly the most seasoned linux user so whichever is easier is probably best. | 02:08 |

| onetinsoldier | julia_set: i don't know with Windows7. but with XP, you'd do something like insert the disk and get to where it ask you for a partition to install to, you select it, then cancel the install, and that would put a windows boot loader back into the mbr | 02:10 |

| hyperstream | bjornredtail, something with the file ? | 02:20 |
| bjornredtail | The script itself runs when I call it from bash by hand | 02:20 |
| bjornredtail | I have it cat some output onto a file | 02:20 |
| hyperstream | master, try putting in a 'password' and 'email' then check your IRC Chat server/status window | 02:20 |
| bjornredtail | That's how I know it's not having any effects | 02:20 |

| nibbler | bjornredtail, nopaste the script | 02:21 |
| PingFloyd | master: if you get lost /msg nickserv help | 02:21 |
| albech | bjornredtail, did you look at the logger tool so real time write to the syslog? | 02:21 |
| hyperstream | master, /join #freenode and ask them for help registering your nickname | 02:21 |
| bjornredtail | I'm just running tail -f on both logs | 02:21 |
| albech | bjornredtail, so instead of merging two files every minute what whatever is creating the other file write real time directly to the log? | 02:22 |
| master | komputes: PingFloyd: where do input these commands???? | 02:22 |
| hyperstream | master, in your SERVER window/tab/STATUS window. | 02:22 |
| komputes | master: in the server messages tab | 02:22 |
| hyperstream | master, your using xchat, so it should be called, 'Ubuntu Servers' | 02:23 |
| android6011 | for rwx for group and owner, and nothing for anyone else, the permission code would be 770 right? | 02:23 |
| bjornredtail | http://users.csc.calpoly.edu/~amusselm/updateimages.bash | 02:24 |
| master | komputes: what a joke, i can't even do this and i want help with my touchscreen? | 02:24 |
| bjornredtail | That's the script | 02:24 |
| master | komputes: it says master already registered! | 02:24 |
| hyperstream | master, did you even go to the website that tells you how to register your nickname ? | 02:24 |
| komputes | master: check your email, check the website | 02:24 |
| hyperstream | master, choose another nickname: /nick <new nickname> | 02:24 |
| master | hyperstream, yes! | 02:24 |
| master | hyperstream: i did | 02:24 |
| hyperstream | master, someone else already Owns that nickname | 02:24 |
| master | hyperstream: i typed /msg nickserv register fireball newmaniax@gmail.com | 02:25 |
| hyperstream | master, why did you tell everyone your password? i hope you dont use that password for anything else? | 02:25 |
| acegiak | has anyone got a moment to help me diagnose my keyboard failure? | 02:25 |
| antox | hi.. | 02:25 |
| iflema | android6011 correct.... why goup wrx? | 02:26 |
| keith- | ok so i have attempted to switch to wmii but i cannot for the life of me get my wifi to connect without using the nm-applet | 02:26 |
| hyperstream | komputes, must have raged ;/ | 02:26 |
| android6011 | iflema: its a shared folder | 02:26 |
| android6011 | for a certain group | 02:26 |
| PingFloyd | never use the same password for multiple services | 02:26 |
| bjornredtail | nibbler, http://users.csc.calpoly.edu/~amusselm/updateimages.bash ...I'm not sure if you missed it in the scroll | 02:26 |
| keith- | i set up the essid ap and channel... then i try to connect with dhclient and it always says there is no dhcp offers. when i connect with NetworkManager it goes great | 02:26 |
| iflema | android6011 goodone | 02:26 |
| komputes | hyperstream: major failure | 02:26 |
| komputes | PingFloyd: already quit | 02:26 |
| keith- | anyone know why dhclient can't find it but nm can? | 02:27 |
| hyperstream | komputes, i somehow dont think he is ready for the world of irc, needs to read things first lol | 02:27 |
| komputes | hyperstream: happens | 02:27 |
| komputes | hyperstream: you just know he's changing his gmail pw | 02:27 |
| acegiak | I've got an eepc t91 and the keyboard has stopped working other than the occasional keypress, usb keyboard is working, matchbox on screen keyboard is not | 02:27 |
| PingFloyd | he's like a deer wandering out on the information highway from hell | 02:28 |
| xfilez | cam on ubuntu...what about /dev/video0 ?? | 02:28 |
| acegiak | any ideas? | 02:28 |
| hyperstream | PingFloyd, LOL | 02:28 |
| nibbler | bjornredtail, so what is totally missing is a working directory, start with "cd ~" maybe | 02:28 |
| bjornredtail | nibbler: A thanks | 02:28 |
| nibbler | bjornredtail, cd /tmp might be better for that, or use the -O option of wget, and specify paths for the logging | 02:29 |
| keith- | anyone know why NetworkManager would connect when dhclient cannot? is there some special magic it uses that i can't find? | 02:29 |
| bjornredtail | nibbler, I actually want another copy of the pictures that it autodownloads | 02:29 |
| Scunizi | How do you get apt to give you a version # for a package? | 02:30 |
| komputes | on | 02:30 |
| onetinsoldier | Scunizi: apt-cache show <package_name> | grep Version | 02:31 |
| nibbler | bjornredtail, well yea, do this as you like ;-) append a `date` to the filenames maybe, if you want to create an archive, use the formatstring to make it more usefull | 02:31 |
| UBlondie | I have just bought a new laptop (pc) with Win 7 on it, and would like to dual boot with Ubuntu 9.10 ...although I was running Ubuntu [only] on previous laptop, I haven't set up a dual boot before. Is this something that is quite straightforward and could someone point me in a direction for a tutorial or good information on procedure please? | 02:31 |
| Scunizi | onetinsoldier: I thought of that.. didn't return a version number | 02:31 |
| nibbler | UBlondie, its like automatic during ubuntu installation | 02:31 |
| keith- | UBlondie: http://lifehacker.com/5403100/dual+boot-windows-7-and-ubuntu-in-perfect-harmony | 02:32 |
| bjornredtail | Ah, sweet. Working. Thanks again. | 02:32 |
| UBlondie | thanks nibbler ..... | 02:32 |
| onetinsoldier | Scunizi: oh? what does the following command show? --> apt-cache show bzip2 | grep Version | 02:32 |
| iflema | Scunizi dpkg -l | 02:32 |
| nibbler | UBlondie, but check keith s link just in case :p | 02:32 |
| nibbler | is there something ready-made like ubuntu one, just in open source? | 02:33 |
| UBlondie | ok :) | 02:33 |
| PingFloyd | LOL, someone was implying that the fast bootup time of ubuntu and fedora is worthless. That person must have never heard of laptops. | 02:33 |
| blakkheim | pbzip2 is a better version of bzip2 in my opinion | 02:33 |
| photocopy | CarlFK: I've gotten the email btw.. | 02:33 |
| Scunizi | onetinsoldier: that worked.. I had typed search instead of show.. fat fingers, long day etc.. thanks | 02:34 |
| SiphoNkosi | Does anyone know what bot is used to log this channel? | 02:34 |
| UBlondie | keith - I have found the lifehacker tut. but wasn't sure about the ntfs partition for shared data. Is linux ok with that? ...it won't slow it down or cause any problems with the standard install being either ext3 or ext4? | 02:34 |
| monkeyboy_ | hi how do i log in to my nick | 02:34 |
| onetinsoldier | Scunizi: you're welcome :-) cheers | 02:35 |
| bjornredtail | monkeyboy_, /msg nickserv <password> | 02:35 |
| bjornredtail | I'm assuming you are refering to IRC | 02:35 |
| Scunizi | ma_faucher: Basket looks promising.. kinda fun too.. | 02:35 |
| rww | SiphoNkosi: the nickname of it, or what software it's running? | 02:35 |
| keith- | UBlondie: on my dual boot i don't even use a shared data partition. i just view my ntfs files from linux and don't care enough about accessing linux from windows... but just make sure you use it for shared data. and i haven't noticed a speed issue. | 02:36 |
| SiphoNkosi | rww, the software please. | 02:36 |
| keith- | hmm let's try wicd | 02:36 |
| defenceminister | I connected an old disk with an existing fedora os on it and now something is chewing up my cpu. The program mountall seems to be doing something. Any idea what might be happening? | 02:37 |
| UBlondie | Keith - I was thinking the same because I will intend on using Ubuntu mostly. Only reason for Windows is Photoshop and mobile phone sofware (and iTunes :( ). A pain really | 02:37 |
| === monkeyboy_ is now known as meowbuntu | ||
| bobbyd | hey everyone | 02:38 |
| rww | SiphoNkosi: no idea. It's administered by Canonical; the folks at #canonical-sysadmins might now, but generally take a while to reply. | 02:38 |
| onetinsoldier | defenceminister: one of the first things i check is /var/log/messages, usually with the command --> tail -f /var/log/messages | 02:38 |
| SiphoNkosi | rww, does the nickinfo give any clue? Thanks for the info in either case. | 02:39 |
| rww | SiphoNkosi: sorry, sysadmin, not sysadmins | 02:39 |
| rww | SiphoNkosi: it's called ubuntulog, so not really | 02:39 |
| onetinsoldier | defenceminister: you might consider running the 'top' command as well or using gnome-system-monitor | 02:39 |
| CarlFK | photocopy: is your stream setup page: http://giss.tv/interface/?mp=photocopy.ogg ? | 02:39 |
| ouyes | i lost a lot of data in one of my external hard dirvers because of a careless format , and i want to recover it , anybody have any advice? | 02:40 |
| defenceminister | There is nothing unusual in /var/log.messages | 02:40 |
| blakkheim | ouyes: be more careful next time | 02:40 |
| defenceminister | top is showing mountall and udevd eating up some cpu | 02:40 |
| * iflema :) | 02:41 | |
| disappearedng_ | anyone familiar with firehol? | 02:41 |
| photocopy | CarlFK No | 02:41 |
| CarlFK | ouyes: I just did that a few weeks ago. formatting whackes it pretty hard, but photorec does do a pretty good job of recoving small files, like jpegs | 02:41 |
| onetinsoldier | defenceminister: roger. the system monitor can be found at System --> Administration --> System Monitor | 02:41 |
| CarlFK | photocopy: what is it? | 02:41 |
| ouyes | blakkheim, yes mate, but the loss for this time is really big | 02:41 |
| defenceminister | I'm using fluxbox | 02:41 |
| keith- | hmmm wicd sort of worked. i must work on this wmii setup. at least i'm online | 02:41 |
| ma_faucher | Scunizi: It doesn't look quite like tomboy, but the fact that it does more than text looks interesting | 02:41 |
| defenceminister | onetinsoldier, it seems my system has auto mounted the new disk. | 02:42 |
| defenceminister | onetinsoldier, do you know where ubuntu auto mounts disks? | 02:42 |
| ouyes | CarlFK, any jpeg? photos? | 02:42 |
| photocopy | CarlFK: http://giss.tv:8000/GLaDOS.ogg ? (Named it after the nick i use on the other channel & network) | 02:42 |
| onetinsoldier | defenceminister: sounds good. see anything in the system monitor eating up a lot of cpu? | 02:42 |
| disappearedng_ | Anyone know how i can route traffic from tun0 to eth0? | 02:42 |
| CarlFK | ouyes: that is the idea: http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/PhotoRec | 02:42 |

| defenceminister | Not really, conky seems to be saying 80% used | 02:44 |
| onetinsoldier | defenceminister: i'm not sure just how the auto mounting works. there may need to be an entry in the /etc/fstab for a volume to be auto mounted, but i'm not sure | 02:44 |
| defenceminister | but top is saying only about 40% | 02:44 |

| blakkheim | Carlis: use aptitude and post the output/errors | 02:47 |
| actionparsnip | Iwolf: sure | 02:47 |
| onetinsoldier | defenceminister: a little on the older side, but should still work fine. not sure how much cpu conky or whatever should be taking | 02:47 |

| shizzle | Anyone here ever used dd or sdd? If so, please ping msg me about a question i have | 02:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Ive always found hibernate/suspend flakey on some machines.. works decently well on others.. | 02:55 |
| IdleOne | !ask | shizzle | 02:56 |
| ubottu | shizzle: 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. :-) | 02:56 |
| Dr_Willis | shizzle: ive read that any bs (block size option for dd ) over like 2mb - dosent give much gain. | 02:56 |
| iWolf | How do I use wicd? | 02:56 |
| CarlFK | photocopy: do you get a page when you hit: http://giss.tv/interface/?mp=CarlFK.ogg | 02:56 |

| photocopy | CarlFK: the one for my page redirects here. http://giss.tv/interface/interface_info.php | 02:57 |

| CarlFK | photocopy: huh... maybe that's what takes an hour.. to get the page | 02:59 |
| bazhang | TongueOfColicab, which two | 02:59 |
| ouyes | TongueOfColicab, here is ok | 02:59 |
| TongueOfColicab | 4 OS's 3 win and 1 Debian | 02:59 |
| ouyes | TongueOfColicab, whick two? mine is morning | 02:59 |
| hunt | Hi, I moved my opensuse partition from sda4 to sda8, I changed the grub2entry, now everytime I try to boot opensuse, it says it couldn't "resume" from sda4 and that fsck.ext4 on sda4 didnt work (because it's an ntfs volume now) and leaves me in a shell were I basically can do nothing, what should I do? | 02:59 |
| bazhang | TongueOfColicab, ##windows and #debian | 02:59 |
| shizzle | Dr_Willis: ok thanks ill try | 03:00 |
| shizzle | cheeta: ok thanks ill try | 03:00 |
| TongueOfColicab | in real is not somethig related to the OS, is related to the boot manager | 03:00 |
| ouyes | hunt, but here is the ubuntu channel | 03:00 |
| cheeta | shizzle: not sure; if it produces a stream output, | pv -b ought to take care of things | 03:00 |
| bazhang | TongueOfColicab, is Ubuntu in there? | 03:00 |
| denisp12 | as I am a new user, i have many more issues of course but this computer freezing is really bugging me | 03:01 |
| TongueOfColicab | no | 03:01 |
| ouyes | TongueOfColicab, then try to describe your issues in more details | 03:01 |
| hunt | ouyes: yeah and I've got a ubuntu running there and it's the grub2 from ubuntu | 03:01 |
| bazhang | then this is not the correct channel | 03:01 |
| photocopy | CarlFK: Okay, ill try back later i guess | 03:01 |
| photocopy | CarlFK Can I have the command again? | 03:01 |
| photocopy | Carlfk gonna save to txt | 03:01 |
| ouyes | hunt, i think you maybe need to reinstall grub since the partitions were changed | 03:02 |
| cheeta | ok, let me ask one last time because I am sort of in a hurry: does anybody know the proper hex vga mode for a good-looking console on an asus 1000h, to replace vga=0x317? | 03:02 |
| blakkheim | !repeat | cheeta | 03:02 |
| ubottu | cheeta: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. | 03:02 |
| bmatthew | anyone here using kubuntu netbook edition able to give some impressions? | 03:02 |
| pilif12p | hi. i'm using nano to edit a text file. how do i see line numbers on it? | 03:02 |
| hunt | ouyes: I already did that | 03:02 |
| blakkheim | pilif12p: use vi :) | 03:02 |
| photocopy | blakkkheim: by sending that to cheeta you're not lessening the amount of spam he created, because now ubottu went on a rant | 03:02 |
| ouyes | hunt, can it find two OS? | 03:02 |
| pilif12p | i dont like vi | 03:02 |
| TongueOfColicab | ok my trouble is, i've installed 4 OS's (win 2003, XP, vista and Debian) and i wanna kick out vista updating to win 7, the fact is, i use GRUB as boot manager, how can i make that update without damage the GRUB? | 03:03 |
| bazhang | TongueOfColicab, that is offtopic here; please visit ##windows and #debian for support | 03:03 |
| blakkheim | TongueOfColicab: in short.. you can't. windows will overwrite it, but you can very easily reinstall grub from a livecd and it will work again. | 03:03 |
| cheeta | win7 is going to have to make a 100mb _primary_ partition on your hdd, best bet is to use a separate disk | 03:03 |
| TongueOfColicab | ok | 03:03 |
| TongueOfColicab | really? | 03:03 |
| navin | Hi I am facing problem in using Yahoo messenger in Ubuntu 9.10 | 03:03 |
| albert_ | hello everybody | 03:04 |
| ouyes | TongueOfColicab, i think you can first install win 7 then reinstall grub using a live cd | 03:04 |
| TongueOfColicab | you mean i can recover grub after update to 7 | 03:04 |
| cheeta | chainloader is your friend, and good bye everyone | 03:04 |

| ouyes | TongueOfColicab, i think so but no garentees, you have to take a risk | 03:05 |

| blakkheim | candy: sudo aptitude install youtube-dl | 03:05 |

| candy | blakkheim, but wheres the link? | 03:06 |
| denisp12 | can i highlight it and copy paste? | 03:06 |
| blakkheim | candy: you give it the regular url and youtube-dl gives you the direct link (and downloads it for you) | 03:06 |
| ouyes | hunt, i mean when you try to reinstall grub, can you see the program(grub) find the two os? it is a link line | 03:06 |
| onetinsoldier | denisp12: yes. if it's all one line. for multiple lines use a pastebin | 03:06 |
| TongueOfColicab | ok thanks | 03:06 |
| denisp12 | i tried but cannot see a copy menu when i right click? | 03:07 |
| DIL | up arrow | 03:07 |
| hunt | ouyes: yes it certainly finds opensuse. | 03:07 |
| candy | blakkheim, let me try | 03:07 |
| ouyes | hunt, you got what i mean? | 03:07 |
| onetinsoldier | denisp12: try your middle mouse button | 03:07 |
| denisp12 | yes i am a new used | 03:07 |
| ouyes | hunt, which two os do you have? | 03:07 |
| denisp12 | my middle button is a wheel | 03:07 |
| onetinsoldier | denisp12: so is mine, but mine is also a button as well as a wheel | 03:08 |
| onetinsoldier | denisp12: your's is just a wheel? | 03:08 |
| Dr_Willis | denisp12: try the up arrow key also. proberly a history feature | 03:08 |
| ouyes | denisp12, whose middle button is not a wheel? | 03:08 |
| Dr_Willis | Not all programs have a cut.paste stuff on teh right buttom menus either, | 03:08 |
| denisp12 | as I am a new user, i have many more issues of course but this computer freezing is really bugging me | 03:09 |
| Dr_Willis | I have a few mice where the wheel/button is such a pain to use.. it may as well just be a wheel. | 03:09 |

| ouyes | hunt, HOW can you move one os to another partition ? i am so curios | 03:10 |
| denisp12 | i appreciate any help i can get, i decided i will use Ubuntu no matter the difficulties | 03:10 |
| hunt | ouyes: booted with live-cd, run gparted | 03:11 |
| denisp12 | my computer freezes after idling a long time, when I hibernate or when i try the other option to standby, need help | 03:11 |
| hunt | ouyes: I firt copied my sda4 to a blank space, then deleted sda4 | 03:11 |
| hunt | reinstalled grub | 03:12 |
| ouyes | denisp12, as usual , you have to update(system>admin>update manager) after a fresh installation | 03:12 |
| hunt | and edited fstab | 03:12 |
| Dr_Willis | denisp12: i would suggest to not use hibernate/suspend Unless you REALLY need it. it can cause issues with some hardware. | 03:12 |
| ouyes | hunt, then what happed exactly? | 03:12 |
| denisp12 | i do regularly | 03:12 |
| denisp12 | update that is | 03:13 |
| ouyes | denisp12, yes avoid using hibernate and suspend | 03:13 |
| denisp12 | but what if i go away from my computer for an hour or more? what do i use? | 03:13 |
| presumida | please, does anybody know a way to use my desktop as a ssh proxy? what i pretend to do is (without using x over ssh) sshing my desktop from any host i'm on, and send any internet requests encrypted through it. For example, i want a page loaded, my browser sends it through ssh to my desktop, it resolves teh address, gets the page, and sends it back to my browser. Same for downloading things, irc, and everything. Anybody knows some solution? | 03:13 |
| === dudicus is now known as cowbud | ||
| hunt | ouyes: grub2 osprober found opensuse on sda8, I tried booting it, it gives me that green background says something like "doing normal boot" then tries to fsck.ext4 sda4 which fails and then tells me it couldnt resume and drops me to a shell | 03:14 |
| iWolf | Alright, my next question, I am using a EeePC 900, And I think I have 2 disks, 4 GB SSD, and a 16 GB SSD, How do I see them both? | 03:14 |
| denisp12 | so you are saying no screen saver, no energy management? | 03:14 |
| faileas | presumida: you'd need openssh server installed | 03:14 |
| presumida | faileas: i have it installed | 03:14 |
| faileas | the client is also linux? | 03:15 |
| presumida | faileas: look, problem with X over ssh is that my remote desktop needs to be running a X client and send output to my host | 03:15 |
| candy | blakkheim, once i closed the panel and now i dont know how to get it back.. evirytihng i minimize i cant see it | 03:15 |
| faileas | presumida: naw, if you use windows, i need to give you instructions for putty. else ssh client | 03:15 |
| Dr_Willis | denisp12: my screensaver and stuff work fine. its the hibernate/suspend special features that oiften have propblems | 03:15 |
| candy | blakkheim, what to do? | 03:15 |
| Dr_Willis | denisp12: i leave my pc's on for weeks at a time. | 03:16 |
| Aimilios | hello, how can i put a shortcut for changing between 2 languages? | 03:16 |
| presumida | and i'm trying to avoid that faileas, i simply want that any internet request my browser, my downloader, and so does, be forwarded through ssh to my remote desktop, it does the job, and sends back the result | 03:16 |
| Dr_Willis | denisp12: or i shutdown/reboot - given its about a 30 sec boot time for me.. its not a big deal | 03:16 |
| blakkheim | candy: i don't understand your question with the way you worded it | 03:16 |
| denisp12 | thank you for your advice i am looking at the different menus right now | 03:16 |
| kbp | Hello. I've read ln manual but still have no idea how to make it work: I'd like to make all access (rw from users or software) to directory /dir1 will actually access the content inside the directory /dir2 (i.e. a symlink would solve this i guess). Could anyone help me write a correct command? (dir1 is blank now while dir2 has contents, so when the job done, access to dir1 will see dir2 content) | 03:16 |
| presumida | faileas: i use only gnu/linux | 03:16 |
| === tato is now known as tato_42 | ||
| candy | blakkheim, hmm panels which show icons for minimized windows, i deleted once | 03:17 |
| denisp12 | i will change everything to no hibernate, not suspend | 03:17 |
| candy | blakkheim, and now i m unable to get it back... | 03:17 |
| cowbud | kbp: remove the dir1 and then do ln -s /path/to/dir2 /path/to/dir1 | 03:17 |
| presumida | kbp: do ln -s /dir1 /dir2 | 03:17 |
| ouyes | hunt, ok, maybe you can run update-grub or manually edit the starting entries, if this fails , i suggest that backup your critic data before go any further, sorry i must say i never encountered the same issue as you, so my advice is not precise and maybe useless | 03:17 |
| faileas | presumida: http://www.searchmarked.com/ubuntu/how-to-surf-anonymously-using-an-ssh-tunnel-and-ubuntu.php | 03:17 |
| presumida | oops sry cowbud typed it correct | 03:17 |
| kbp | thank you cowbud and presumida I'll do it | 03:18 |
| candy | blakkheim, ok for example if i minimize firefox i cant see it anymore | 03:18 |
| cowbud | presumida: hey 90% of the battle shoooot :) | 03:18 |
| hunt | ouyes: thanks anyway I'll try it now, bye | 03:18 |
| faileas | presumida: it'll work likewise for most other apps, you need to set them up accordingly | 03:18 |
| presumida | kbp: but make sure you do it as cowbud my command is wrong, first dir2, then dir1 | 03:18 |
| candy | blakkheim, the only option for me is to pree alt+tab and get it. | 03:18 |
| presumida | cowbud: ^_^ | 03:18 |
| ouyes | hunt, en good luck | 03:18 |

| cowbud | milly: i'd venture to say yes | 03:31 |
| PlasmaSheep | cowbud: that obviously did something, but I can still use deluge, and the error persists. | 03:32 |
| PlasmaSheep | ouyes: what? | 03:32 |
| ouyes | PlasmaSheep, it is strange , i think it will be ok, if you update package info, | 03:32 |
| denisp12 | am laughing all alone at home | 03:32 |
| cowbud | PlasmaSheep: dpkg --purge deluge-common | 03:32 |
| iflema | denisp12 when you hibernate 3958 worth of data try to fit into 2188 = freeze | 03:32 |
| milly | cowbud do you get an attack page ? | 03:32 |
| teage | iWolf:gksudo nautilus | 03:32 |
| teage | sorry | 03:32 |
| denisp12 | ahhhhhhhhhhhh | 03:32 |
| cowbud | PlasmaSheep: you basuically have to manually remove all of deluge so that you can then reinstall it | 03:32 |
| iWolf | teage: how | 03:32 |
| PlasmaSheep | rww: This is the first time this has happened ever. | 03:32 |
| cowbud | milly yes | 03:32 |
| iWolf | teage: I cannot view my volumes | 03:32 |
| PlasmaSheep | cowbud: will do | 03:32 |
| iWolf | And I am on Netbook Remix | 03:32 |
| ouyes | PlasmaSheep, and restrict in the software source | 03:32 |
| cowbud | PlasmaSheep: mixing package repos that aren't official tend to lead you down a sticky road of conflicts | 03:32 |
| iflema | denisp12 increase the swap size..... | 03:32 |
| root51 | i cant view my webcam | 03:32 |
| cowbud | PlasmaSheep: i.e. you are getting more advanced which is good but it adds pain :) | 03:32 |
| denisp12 | all right, tell me how please ifelma | 03:33 |
| Dr_Willis | root51: test the webcam with the 'cheese' program - if it works in there.. it works.. | 03:33 |
| rww | cowbud: I wouldn't necessarily associate using unofficial repositories with "advanced". | 03:33 |
| root51 | what can of messenger available for webcam | 03:33 |
| denisp12 | now that i know what a terminal is | 03:33 |
| Justin_` | Is there any way that I can get it so when i run my command, 'java -XmX512M server' to keep running after i close putty? | 03:33 |
| ouyes | sbilik, still there? | 03:33 |
| PlasmaSheep | ouyes: it is. | 03:33 |
| teage | Iwolf: if you hit alt+f2 you will get root file manager | 03:33 |
| blakkheim | Justin_`: screen | 03:33 |
| cowbud | Justin_`: add a & to it so it puts the command in the background | 03:33 |
| Dr_Willis | denisp12: you may want to 'reinstall' and make your swap partion larger. if you must use hibernate/suspend | 03:33 |
| Justin_` | So like | 03:33 |
| cowbud | Justin_`: if the process detaches properly it will work | 03:33 |
| PlasmaSheep | cowbud: it seems that deluged won't uninstall. | 03:34 |
| Justin_` | 'java -Xmx512M server &' ? | 03:34 |
| denisp12 | slowly getting there i think, no no i do not want to reinstall, had too many problems | 03:34 |
| cowbud | PlasmaSheep: when you do dpkg --purge deluge-common what do you get? | 03:34 |
| teage | iWolf: you will be able to go all over yer system | 03:34 |
| onetinsoldier | Justin_`: i'm not certain.. perhaps the 'nohup' command --> man nohup | 03:34 |
| ouyes | PlasmaSheep, are you trying to install a download tool named deluge? | 03:34 |
| cowbud | Justin_`: yes and alternatively if the app is poorly coded for that type of behavior nohup will work as onetinsoldier suggested | 03:34 |
| teage | i think i will just have to reinstall | 03:34 |
| PlasmaSheep | cowbud: I've done that, but deluged won't uninstall. | 03:35 |
| teage | this sux | 03:35 |
| sbilik | ouyes: yep, I am | 03:35 |
| ouyes | PlasmaSheep, paste the output from $ | 03:35 |
| denisp12 | i lost use of my computer for 2 days upon installation, all i was getting was the Grub error | 03:35 |
| cowbud | ouyes: PlasmaSheep yes :) paste it | 03:35 |
| Justin_` | Ok, ill have a look about this nohub | 03:35 |
| rww | Justin_`: nohup | 03:35 |
| ouyes | sbilik, so have you determined your wireless card chip? | 03:35 |
| cowbud | Justin_`: in short you just do nohup COMMAND :) | 03:35 |
| root51 | any gdm for karmic | 03:35 |
| gbear14275 | Hello, I just created a windows VM in an attempt to update a new Garmin Nuvi with their windows software (Wine didn't work). I'm having problems getting the VM to detect the Garmin via USB. I read that I could pass a USB device to a VM through a RDP connection and tried that as well but now think that just windows rdp 6.1 supports PnP USB passing. (excuse terms used incorrectly please). My question is... can anyone reccomend a | 03:35 |
| === geek is now known as Guest84147 | ||
| denisp12 | give me a command, now i have a terminal window ready . . . | 03:35 |
| Justin_` | So its like | 03:35 |
| ouyes | cowbud, his last paste is not complete | 03:35 |
| Dr_Willis | Justin_`: i would say - not use hibernate/suspend untill you get more linux skills learned then. and can attempt a reisntall. a 'fix' of this might be just as hard if not harder then a reinstall | 03:35 |
| Justin_` | nohup java -XmX512M server | 03:36 |
| cowbud | Justin_`: yep | 03:36 |
| Dr_Willis | denisp12: : i would say - not use hibernate/suspend untill you get more linux skills learned then. and can attempt a reisntall. a 'fix' of this might be just as hard if not harder then a reinstall | 03:36 |
| Dr_Willis | wrong nick. :P | 03:36 |
| Justin_` | Noticed :) | 03:36 |
| denisp12 | thanks i agree | 03:36 |
| Dr_Willis | denisp12: there is no 'magical one command' to fix it. | 03:36 |
| iflema | denisp12 ittl have to be unmounted and resized.... livecd + gparted easiest way 4 u i guess... | 03:36 |
| gbear14275 | anyone have a better way to et USB to work in a VM | 03:36 |
| Dr_Willis | I wonder if hibernate/suspend can use more then 1 swap partition... | 03:36 |
| denisp12 | gibberish again iflema | 03:36 |
| ouyes | sbilik, do you know how to ? just run sudo lspci -nnk in the terminal, then try to find all the info related to wireless | 03:37 |
| ouyes | sbilik, and give us a detail here | 03:37 |
| Dr_Willis | denisp12: time to learn more linux basics then untill its not gibberish.. or try to do a reinstall. | 03:37 |
| denisp12 | so sorry to be such a difficult user | 03:37 |
| PlasmaSheep | cowbud: reinstalling deluge atm | 03:37 |
| Dr_Willis | denisp12: reinstall or 'resize' the existing partitions. are the 2 options | 03:37 |
| sbilik | ouyes: It was a broadcom 4309 | 03:37 |
| PlasmaSheep | cowbud: and... error. | 03:37 |
| iflema | denisp12 google gparted livecd... you install cd prob a live cd | 03:37 |
| PlasmaSheep | I think the problem is with the getdep repo. | 03:37 |
| sbilik | ouyes: I'm wondering if I need to go the ndisc route | 03:38 |
| denisp12 | i will some day i guess but in the meantime, no sleeping for my computer | 03:38 |
| PlasmaSheep | cowbud: I think if I remove it it won't cause a problem. | 03:38 |
| cowbud | PlasmaSheep: paste the following command 'dpkg -l deluge*' | 03:38 |
| * iflema yahoo | 03:38 | |
| denisp12 | i installed with a cd | 03:38 |
| ouyes | sbilik, no i need very specified info, just run lspci -nnk and | 03:38 |
| sbilik | ouyes: sorry, I can't at the moment. | 03:38 |
| PlasmaSheep | http://pastebin.com/m2bcabf67 cowbud | 03:39 |
| Dravekx | 550 Create directory operation failed. << I get that when trying to transfer files to my home directory. why? | 03:39 |
| sbilik | ouyes: is there specific fields I should key in on? | 03:39 |
| Dravekx | ]]permissions | 03:39 |
| Dravekx | !permissions | 03:40 |
| ubottu | An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions | 03:40 |
| ouyes | sbilik, ah,i donot think so and what encript i know, two ways here , you need a correct driver | 03:40 |
| PlasmaSheep | cowbud: keep in mind that's after apt-get install deluge | 03:40 |
| sbilik | ouyes: you mean the windows driver, right? | 03:40 |
| ouyes | sbilik, ah,i donot think so and what encrypt method your router using. i know, two ways here , you need a correct driver | 03:40 |
| cowbud | PlasmaSheep: ok dpkg --purge --force-all deluge deluge-core deluge-gtk you have mixed version of packages that is why one says GETDEB in the name | 03:40 |
| denisp12 | i googled but do not understand the options and am afraid of messing up my Ubuntu partition | 03:41 |
| sbilik | ouyes: encryption is off on the router | 03:41 |
| PlasmaSheep | done | 03:41 |
| PlasmaSheep | cowbud: done | 03:41 |
| sbilik | ouyes: right now the laptop doesn't see any wireless right now. | 03:41 |
| ouyes | sbilik, no of course not , we have a lot good drive for you , no windows here | 03:41 |
| denisp12 | please know that i still have vista somewhere on that laptop as well | 03:41 |
| cowbud | PlasmaSheep: did it complete correctly? if so give apt-get install deluge a try now | 03:41 |
| sbilik | ouyes: it fails to notice that wireless is even there | 03:41 |
| PlasmaSheep | cowbud: done, now when doing the -l command it gives me a list, but with no version numbers or descriptions | 03:41 |
| PlasmaSheep | cowbud: doing it now | 03:42 |
| denisp12 | plus, i have 3 other backup hard disk on USB cables | 03:42 |
| cowbud | PlasmaSheep: fyi your getdeb version is no higher than the actual ubuntu version | 03:42 |
| ouyes | sbilik, maybe you need to change to another channel, some old wireless card does not support all the channels | 03:42 |
| albech | join #ubuntu+1 | 03:42 |
| denisp12 | you were very helpful so far dr willis and iflema | 03:42 |
| PlasmaSheep | cowbud: completed without an error. Many thanks. | 03:42 |
| ouyes | sbilik, what is the iwlist scanning output? | 03:42 |
| sbilik | ouyes: the one route I haven't tried yet is the bcm43xx-fwcutter path. | 03:42 |
| cowbud | PlasmaSheep: just out of curiosity can I see your dpkg -l deluge* command now? as in paste that again | 03:42 |
| cowbud | PlasmaSheep: and do you understand what happened? You had two ubuntu packages that depended on deluge-core which was a none ubuntu packages | 03:43 |
| PlasmaSheep | cowbud: http://pastebin.com/m6d164fa4 | 03:43 |
| denisp12 | i am not sure what time it is in your country but here it is getting late, 22h45 | 03:43 |
| ouyes | sbilik, reboot to ubuntu otherwise we can do nothing but chatting here | 03:43 |
| ouyes | sbilik, ok | 03:43 |
| presumida | hi i'm back i read the guide about tunneling ff through ssh but i got a question- once the ssh readches the remove server which should gather the webpage and send it back to me, how is supposed the server to gather it? i mean, shouldn't it run some kind of daemon to resolve http petitions sent by ssh , and a user agent to download http requestes and send em back to the ssh socket? | 03:44 |
| PlasmaSheep | cowbud: I understand, thanks for the help. I'll remember next time this happens. | 03:44 |
| sbilik | ouyes: let me see if it has charged up enough these past few hours... | 03:44 |
| cowbud | PlasmaSheep: alright so now you have the more up to date version from karmic (their version numbers are higher) I suggest just removing the getdeb repo from your apt list. Also on a huge side note I would HIGHLY recommend transmission it rocks :) | 03:44 |
| ouyes | PlasmaSheep, is that all? | 03:44 |
| Justin_` | When I boot up Ubuntu, It asks for a Keyring password to connect to the internet (madwifi). Is there a way I can make it so I don't have to type in my account password? | 03:44 |
| ouyes | sbilik, it wont | 03:45 |
| iWolf | I'm trying to connect to my network on an EEEPC 900, and it says unable to find IP, keep in mind I am using wicd | 03:45 |
| ouyes | sbilik, since you did nothing in the past few hours | 03:45 |
| Dr_Willis | Justin_`: the keyring password is not the same as the account password. | 03:45 |
| Dr_Willis | Justin_`: you can set a blank keyring password | 03:45 |
| maco | Justin_`: it shouldve unlocked the keyring when you logged in if the passwords match... or do you have automatic login turned on? | 03:45 |
| sbilik | ouyes: I just mean that I want to bring it local | 03:45 |
| Justin_` | Automatic login on | 03:45 |
| ouyes | sbilik, there is little luck in computer world, we need practice | 03:46 |
| denisp12 | thanks eveyone for your help, good night now | 03:46 |
| ouyes | sbilik, how far it is ? | 03:46 |
| maco | Justin_`: ok, acknowledging that this is rather insecure... if you go to applications -> accessories -> passwords & encryption keys, and go to the "login keyring" you can reset the password to blank | 03:46 |
| sbilik | ouyes: it's full now | 03:46 |
| Dr_Willis | Justin_`: the keyring password is NOT the same as your users password - I got a video of how to 'reset' the keyring password tobe empty so it never asks | 03:46 |
| maco | Justin_`: and then it shouldnt ask | 03:46 |
| Dr_Willis | Justin_`: http://drop.io/dr_willis has a video... | 03:46 |
| sbilik | ouyes: so what params for iwlist? | 03:46 |
| ouyes | sbilik, reboot to ubuntu ,then it will be passible for us to fix it and make it work | 03:47 |
| Dr_Willis | Justin_`: the 'trick' is the right click menujs in that passwords & keys tool. its often overlooked. | 03:47 |
| sbilik | ouyes: one moment while she reboots | 03:47 |
| ouyes | sbilik, first you have to find the interface name of your wireless, use ifconfig -a | 03:47 |
| Justin_` | Ok | 03:47 |
| sbilik | ouyes: am I going to have to have a dedicated ethernet wired connection to make it work? | 03:48 |
| sbilik | ouyes: to download new drivers? | 03:48 |
| candy | #quit | 03:48 |
| candy | whats the command to quit from here? | 03:48 |
| ouyes | sbilik, she? you have another lap or another people's issue | 03:48 |
| LizardK|ng | how would i put a new command in the menu that appears when i right-click on my gnome desktop? | 03:48 |
| Justin_` | The keyring is needed for /bin/nm_applet | 03:48 |
| sharon_ | sound config?? | 03:48 |
| sharon_ | help pleas | 03:48 |
| Dr_Willis | candy: try /quit | 03:48 |
| omee66 | Hey there | 03:49 |
| sbilik | ouyes: ok, I have a terminal up on a fresh reboot | 03:49 |
| Justin_` | /usr/bin/nm-applet * | 03:49 |
| Dr_Willis | LizardK|ng: gnome file manager has a context menu/scripting feature | 03:49 |
| ouyes | sbilik, you just have the connection with this channel, you can download | 03:49 |
| sbilik | ouyes: "she" meaning the laptop | 03:49 |
| sbilik | ouyes: my irc channel is on another computer | 03:49 |
| ouyes | sbilik, it will be definite | 03:49 |
| sbilik | ouyes: separate from the broken wireless laptop | 03:49 |
| omee66 | I'm running crunchbang distro :D | 03:49 |
| Dr_Willis | LizardK|ng: Just create a script (or a link to a script) in ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/ and it will appear in the right-click scripts sub-menu. (i thknk this is right) | 03:49 |
| sharon_ | help | 03:49 |
| omee66 | I love this Linux thing... so much fun. | 03:50 |
| sharon_ | duz anyone know about alsa | 03:50 |
| rahduke | how long should it take fsck to check my 750gig drive, something went wrong during an update and now im trying to boot in recovery mode.... seems like it is fsck-ing my drive. How long should it take? | 03:50 |
| ouyes | sbilik, ok | 03:50 |
| Dr_Willis | LizardK|ng: see --> http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/ubuntu-63/how-do-i-add-context-menu-item-in-gnomenautilus.-557450/ | 03:50 |
| rahduke | also how can i boot and skip any disk checks in 9.10, it doesnt seem to give me the option | 03:50 |
| sbilik | ouyes: so what probing CLI command do you want first? | 03:51 |
| Alan502 | can someone suggest a video editor for subtitles? | 03:51 |
| IdleOne | rahduke: hitting ESC key should skip the file check | 03:51 |
| iWolf | I'm trying to connect to my network on an EEEPC 900, and it says unable to find IP, keep in mind I am using wicd | 03:51 |
| LizardK|ng | Dr_Willis, thanks! | 03:51 |
| ouyes | cowbud, have the issue of Plasma been solved? | 03:51 |
| omee66 | I'm having troubles with running a command in terminal, I keep getting "too many open files in system" error message, no matter how I change the ulimits. | 03:51 |
| omee66 | I am running crunchbang off a USB drive. | 03:51 |
| cowbud | ouyes: yep :) he needed to remove all deluge packages first then install it | 03:52 |
| ouyes | sbilik, i need you first to determine what is the wireless interface of your lap , run ifconfig - a find the wireless interface 's name | 03:52 |
| Flannel | omee66: #crunchbang should be able to help you | 03:52 |
| omee66 | Thanks a lot | 03:52 |
| omee66 | Sorry about this. | 03:52 |
| sbilik | ouyes: it only shows eth1 and the loopback if | 03:52 |
| Dravekx | how do i lock an SFTP user to his directory? | 03:53 |
| ouyes | sbilik, ah , you do not have the right driver, | 03:53 |
| LizardK|ng | sometimes, linux is far more complicated than it needs to be; i just want to be able to open a terminal by right-clicking on my desktop, and i have to write a script do to it and link it to a directory in a hidden directory? thats a bit ridiculous... | 03:53 |
| LizardK|ng | to do it | 03:53 |
| disappearedng_ | Anyone familiar with how I can use avidemux to make sound louder? | 03:53 |
| sbilik | ouyes: but lspci -nnk shows the controller and kernel module ssb | 03:54 |
| Dravekx | do I need vsftpd for ssh SFTP access? | 03:54 |
| ouyes | sbilik, sudo lspci -nnk try to find the info of wireless card, i need all the information | 03:54 |
| sbilik | ouyes: Network controller [0280] Broadcom BCM4309 802.11a/b/g | 03:55 |
| sbilik | ouyes: [1434:4324] (rev 03) | 03:55 |
| jayvee | Dravekx: SFTP and FTPS are completely different | 03:55 |
| ouyes | sbilik, that is all ? | 03:55 |
| jayvee | Dravekx: SFTP has nothing to do with FTP | 03:55 |
| jayvee | Dravekx: if you want SFTP access on your server, install openssh-server | 03:55 |
| sbilik | ouyes: yes | 03:55 |
| Dravekx | jayvee, I have openssh server installed, so do I really need vsftpd? | 03:56 |
| ouyes | sbilik, wait a moment and ill find you a proper driver, be patient and take your time | 03:56 |
| sbilik | ouyes: was there something else you were looking for in those lines? | 03:56 |
| jayvee | Dravekx: No. You're already ready for SFTP. Just start using SFTP now. | 03:56 |
| Dravekx | sweet!!! thanks | 03:56 |
| jayvee | Dravekx: I don't recommend FTP. It's insecure. | 03:56 |
| iWolf | I'm trying to connect to my network on an EEEPC 900, and it says unable to find IP, keep in mind I am using wicd | 03:56 |
| xumuk | S before FTP means Secure... IMHO... | 03:57 |
| ouyes | sbilik, nope | 03:57 |
| Dravekx | how do I remove an app I've installed? | 03:58 |
| sbilik | ouyes: I think this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=405552 might help | 03:58 |
| Dravekx | sudo apt-remove? | 03:58 |
| jayvee | apt-get remove | 03:58 |
| Dravekx | ahhh | 03:58 |
| jayvee | or apt-get autoremove if you want to remove dependencies too | 03:58 |
| jayvee | which in most cases you will | 03:58 |
| Out_Cold | yes.. apt will always tell you if you have useless deps after any install/removal | 03:59 |
| Dr_Willis | LizardK|ng: there is some deb that adds just that feature... | 03:59 |
| Alan502 | can someone suggest a video editor for subtitles? | 04:00 |
| Dr_Willis | LizardK|ng: so its allready been done.. i saw it in the 'ubuntu-tweak' tweaker tool | 04:00 |
| Butch128 | I have a bridge question.. I have two virtual machines (kvm) successfully connected to my network through a bridge. They both have router IPs 192.168.1.50/51, they can ping every host on my network, every host can ping them, but they can't ping each other.. Any idea how i would troubleshoot this? | 04:00 |
| Alan502 | please! | 04:00 |
| ouyes | sbilik, it seems you have a very old laptop, | 04:00 |
| Out_Cold | Alan502, why not softcode?? i hate hardcoded movies | 04:00 |
| harrymuffin | be sure you also apt-get --remove (package) | 04:01 |
| sbilik | ouyes: yes, I'm trying to use Ubuntu to extend the life of an old one. Ubuntu works fine on my personal (new) one. | 04:01 |
| ouyes | sbilik, and an old wireless card without supported by broadcom office | 04:01 |
| harrymuffin | er. | 04:01 |
| harrymuffin | be sure you also apt-get --purge remove (package) | 04:01 |
| harrymuffin | to kill the config file | 04:01 |
| sbilik | ouyes: did you look at the link I sent? | 04:01 |
| Alan502 | Out_Cold, cause i don't have the minimum idea of what that is! | 04:01 |
| ouyes | sbilik, ok we try to find another driver, run uname -r in the terminal | 04:01 |
| LizardK|ng | Alan502, use vim and vlc to play it back | 04:01 |
| Dr_Willis | !info nautilus-open-terminal | 04:02 |

| sbilik | ouyes: 2.6.31-17-generic | 04:02 |
| LizardK|ng | Dr_Willis, i think thats what i want | 04:02 |
| Alan502 | i wan't a video editor that can add subtitles, like merge them in the video | 04:02 |
| sbilik | ouyes: (I did the 9.10 install today and did it's updates) | 04:02 |
| Alan502 | *want | 04:02 |
| LizardK|ng | Alan502, why not just store your subtitles in a separate .srt file? | 04:03 |
| Dr_Willis | Alan502: ive seen that mentioned in the ffmpeg/mencoder faq/docs befor.. but no idea on a gui tool to do it | 04:03 |
| jayvee | Butch128: is that a brctl bridge? | 04:03 |
| Alan502 | LizardK|ng, will that "merge" them in the video? | 04:04 |
| ouyes | sbilik, wait a moment | 04:04 |
| mefisto__ | Alan502: there's a kde video editor that does subtitles I think. kdenlive | 04:04 |
| Butch128 | hey jayvee - yes, but i fixed it!... both had the same mac address | 04:04 |
| === geek is now known as Guest93370 | ||
| LizardK|ng | Alan502, vlc can play the video and show the subtitles in your srt file | 04:05 |

| deefzi | i had problems with flash before | 04:13 |
| codebx | it's a single playerplayer .so file that you copy into the plugins folder for mozilla or chrome | 04:13 |

| grkblood | well, i now have a big problem | 04:13 |

| sbilik | ouyes: is this a whole new kernel? | 04:14 |
| LinuX2half | How do I get the desktop back.? | 04:14 |

| Boyyd | Hi | 04:14 |
| Boyyd | I wanna access some Windows files from Ubuntu | 04:15 |
| Boyyd | How would I do this? | 04:15 |
| rvn | hey i just picked up a p4 box with an nvidia vanta (16mb) in it, and i'm thinking of tossing ubuntu 9.10 on there - how is it's support for this card? | 04:15 |
| rvn | i'd imagine it will work fine, yes? | 04:15 |
| komputes | Boyyd: using samba | 04:15 |
| Out_Cold | deefzi, ttf-mscorefonts-installer is in repos | 04:15 |
| rvn | i need it to push 1920x1200 as it does under xp | 04:15 |
| codebx | boyyd: is the windows installation on the same computer or another computer on a network? | 04:15 |
| Boyyd | different network ;) | 04:16 |
| xumuk | who was looking for flash player x64? o_O http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10_64bit.html | 04:16 |
| Boyyd | i mean | 04:16 |
| Boyyd | same network, different computer | 04:16 |
| LinuX2half | My desktop folder had disappeared and now the home folder is replaced with it.... | 04:16 |
| deefzi | Out_Cold, ah. thanks, changed package name apparently | 04:16 |
| Lostinspace_46 | I just installed emacs 23.1 and the install went great. However, it seems to have installed with no launcher. Any ideas? | 04:16 |
| LinuX2half | How do I get my desktop folder back...? | 04:16 |
| ouyes | cowbud, the issue Pla have been properly solved? | 04:16 |
| codebx | yeah, you'll need a samba client to talk with windows I believe | 04:16 |
| komputes | !samba | Boyyd | 04:16 |
| ubottu | Boyyd: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 04:16 |
| codebx | komputes: nice :) | 04:16 |
| sbilik | ouyes: isn't installing a new kernel a bit overkill? | 04:16 |
| ouyes | codebx, what do you try to say? | 04:17 |
| fwaokda | I downloaded eclipse and I'm wanting to put the program folder with my other programs would that be in /usr/local/bin ? | 04:17 |
| ouyes | sbilik, what are you trying to say | 04:17 |
| LinuX2half | My desktop folder had disappeared and now the home folder is replaced with it....How do I get my desktop folder back? | 04:18 |
| grkblood | Out_Cold, they only have it for 9.04 | 04:18 |

| ouyes | codebx, mix you two,somebody ever told me the 64-flash have problem itseldf | 04:18 |
| grkblood | flashplugin-installer doesnt work | 04:18 |
| Out_Cold | LinuX2half, the folder on your desktop? or in nautilus? | 04:18 |

| === Cpudan80_ is now known as Cpudan80 | ||
| Out_Cold | grkblood, maybe downgrade then? | 04:19 |
| komputes | LinuX2half: gedit ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs | 04:19 |
| sbilik | ouyes: why release 31? | 04:19 |
| Lostinspace_46 | LinuX2half> Just go to home dir and make a new desnktop folder | 04:19 |
| Newk | two keys on my keyboard stopped functioning in ubuntu but are not broken the 'delete' key and the 'down arrow' key.. anyone can help getting them back? | 04:20 |
| LinuX2half | Out_Cold: The desktop folder can't be viewed when going to my home folder but it remain on the panel. When I click on the desktop panel icon, it sent me to the home folder directory. | 04:20 |
| ouyes | sbilik, since there is no better way, why not give the compat-wireless a try, it wont do any big damage to your os, and if you do not know how to install it you can see the readme file or ill direct you finish the installation | 04:20 |
| komputes | LinuX2half: check in there that the right desktop folder is specified | 04:20 |
| ouyes | sbilik, you have the kernel | 04:20 |
| iflema | grkblood remove all other install versions.. if any, make a folder /home/[username]/.mozilla/plugings and extract the following file into it... then (re)start firefox... | 04:20 |
| ouyes | sbilik, 2.6.31-17-generic | 04:20 |
| sbilik | ouyes: I'll do that. Thanks for the pointer. This'll take some time. | 04:20 |

| snayth | Is there a way to play a .wma music file in Karmic ? ? | 04:20 |
| Out_Cold | snayth, vlc should play it | 04:21 |
| deefzi | iflema, i wouldn't suggest installing anything which will be left out of apt :/ | 04:21 |
| === Guest79625 is now known as buster | ||
| iflema | deefzi never? | 04:21 |
| sbilik | ouyes: ah, I see. Compatible with the same rev kernel. Thanks. | 04:21 |
| ouyes | sbilik, there is no big difference, if there is any problem during your installation , you can ask me here directly | 04:21 |
| Lostinspace_46 | I just installed emacs 23.1 and the install went great. However, it seems to have installed with no launcher. Any ideas? | 04:21 |
| Lunis_ | :< why does docky have to be written in mono? it makes my heart saddened. | 04:22 |
| sbilik | ouyes: I'll have to try this tomorrow. | 04:22 |
| === buster is now known as Guest8744 | ||
| deefzi | well, in ultimate cases. but i have a 64-bit system and flash is def. made workable with the repository flash-plugins | 04:22 |
| snayth | Out_Cold; Oh yea - forgot about that - will give that a try. Thanks bunches | 04:22 |
| LinuX2half | It still doesn't work when I edit the user.dir foler | 04:22 |
| komputes | snayth: vlc, ffmpeg, depending on the version of the file gstreamer plugin packages. The easiest way is to install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 04:22 |
| grkblood | thanks iflema | 04:22 |
| sbilik | ouyes: did you have any thoughts on the link I sent you earlier? | 04:22 |
| Out_Cold | deefzi, i often find stuff not in apt... like bleeding edge or no name apps | 04:22 |
| komputes | LinuX2half: once you make the changes log out and back in | 04:22 |
| Thoven78 | snayth: or go to ubuntu software center install ubuntu restricted extras and Rhythmbox will play it | 04:22 |
| xangua | Lunis_: you can use another dock if you don't like mono | 04:22 |
| LinuX2half | alright... | 04:22 |
| sbilik | ouyes: about using "bcm43xx-fwcutter" ? | 04:22 |
| Lunis_ | xangua, 'course i can, but wasn't my torrid love affair with docky apparent? ;) | 04:23 |
| ouyes | sbilik, i give it a quick look but i think you maybe have not followed the instructions step by step | 04:23 |
| Lostinspace_46 | LinuX2half> Try "touch ~/Desktop" | 04:23 |
| snayth | komputes, I have restricted but Totem came up and complained - I'll just right clk on file and change to VLC Player for default - Should be fine ... | 04:23 |
| ixian_ | hey, is there a way to automatically mount windows ntfs partitions when ubuntu boots? preferably a gui way, but cli is fine too | 04:24 |
| Boyyd | hey | 04:24 |
| snayth | Thoven78, Thanks | 04:24 |
| LinuX2half | Nope, it doesn't work | 04:24 |
| Boyyd | Ubuntu is supposed to be accessible | 04:24 |
| sbilik | ouyes: I have some hope that it can be done. I got close with Linux Mint but it couldn't find a hidden ssid, only an open broadcasting one. | 04:24 |
| Boyyd | How come I can't access it from the middle of nowhere | 04:24 |
| LinuX2half | The desktop folder is still missing | 04:24 |
| Out_Cold | snayth, totem IMO sucks... i don't know many that actually keep and use it | 04:24 |
| ouyes | sbilik, so we can try another way , copy the link i gave to you to a file, tomorrow you can referent to it if you come across any problem during the installation | 04:24 |
| Newk | ixian_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently | 04:24 |
| grkblood | did it an easier way | 04:25 |
| komputes | LinuX2half: did you create the Desktop folder in your Home folder? | 04:25 |
| Lostinspace_46 | LinuX2half> Then I don't know..sorry | 04:25 |
| ouyes | sbilik, you even find the ssid? | 04:25 |
| grkblood | i just did a force--architecture on the newest deb | 04:25 |
| Dr_Willis | ixian_: automatically would imply you diont need a gui or cli. :) add a proper entry in the fstab and it will mount properly | 04:25 |
| sbilik | ouyes: will do. Like I said, I'll try it tomorrow. | 04:25 |
| LinuX2half | komputer: No, I suppose not... | 04:25 |
| ouyes | sbilik, just can not make a connection | 04:25 |
| snayth | Out_Cold: Yea you got that right. | 04:25 |
| sbilik | ouyes: on Mint it can connect to open wifi | 04:25 |
| komputes | LinuX2half: you must do that | 04:25 |
| Dr_Willis | !ntfs-3g | ixian_ | 04:25 |
| ubottu | ixian_: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions | 04:25 |
| LinuX2half | komputer: I'm not sure of how to accomplish that. | 04:25 |
| sbilik | ouyes: but on Ubuntu it didn't even activate the Broadcom wifi | 04:26 |
| LinuX2half | komputer: I can only create folders or documents | 04:26 |
| Newk | oops | 04:26 |
| komputes | LinuX2half: Create a folder in your home folder, name it Desktop | 04:26 |
| sbilik | ouyes: on Mint it recognized and downloaded the proprietary driver and I could activate it. | 04:26 |

| ubottu | LinuX2half, please see my private message | 04:27 |
| ouyes | sbilik, ok mate, try it tomorrow, ubuntu is good, but it need more improvement about hard driver support. also you really have a very old lap | 04:27 |
| gimbal | I mean, there's gotta be *something* in it that can be of use to the FOSS side of the design/development/deployment domain | 04:27 |
| gimbal | so I was thinking. and maybe it could be fun too | 04:27 |
| gimbal | if it was open enough! | 04:27 |
| Justin_` | How do I edit the /etc/passwd file? | 04:27 |
| Out_Cold | sbilik, mint uses restricted drivers that a pure ubuntu release doesn't install because of GPL | 04:27 |
| Dravekx | where can i got for ssh settings? | 04:27 |
| Thoven78 | sbilik: in orther to activate the broadcom wifi your computer has to be connected through the internet | 04:27 |

| Dr_Willis | tomatoes7: if You want a desktop eventually - use the desktop edition | 04:34 |

| Out_Cold | Dr_Willis, unless you want the server kernel :p | 04:34 |

| semitones | I have a problem. When I close the lid of my laptop, and open it back up, it asks me to unlock my session. Is there a way of sidestepping this? | 04:41 |
| Out_Cold | Newk, i'm reading up here.. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultimediaKeys should at least be a start.. | 04:41 |
| Harold_parker | if a directory is 775 and i'm in the group that owns it, why can't i create directories inside it? (pls excuse spam) | 04:41 |
| Out_Cold | Newk, check out the kernel keycodes and see what you can get | 04:42 |
| Thoven78 | semitones go to power management. there you should be able to fix that. | 04:42 |
| scott_ino2 | semitones, you have to run gconf-editor to do that I think | 04:42 |
| BinaryMan | so... | 04:42 |
| Out_Cold | Harold_parker, you should be able to create new dir. | 04:42 |
| BinaryMan | why is all of the mythtv packages in the repo still .21? | 04:43 |
| Newk | Out_Cold: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting was reading that too.. thanks for that other link! | 04:43 |
| Harold_parker | thanks Out_Cold, thats what i'd reasoned too | 04:43 |
| semitones | Thoven78: There were settings similar to what I need, but not exactly what I need there :\ | 04:43 |
| scott_ino2 | semitones, run gconf-editor (from a Terminal or thru Alt+F2); | 04:43 |
| scott_ino2 | - in the left tree, select apps > gnome-power-manager > lock; | 04:43 |
| scott_ino2 | - uncheck the options you'll be free of. I unchecked blank_screen and use_screensaver_setting | 04:43 |
| scott_ino2 | sorry | 04:43 |
| FloodBot4 | scott_ino2: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 04:43 |
| semitones | scott_ino2: will that work in xubuntu also? | 04:43 |
| BinaryMan | here i am testing it on one of my boxes and finally realized i'm using .21 instead of .22 | 04:43 |
| scott_ino2 | semitones, ummm THAT I can't say for certain | 04:44 |
| scott_ino2 | not sure how xfce does that | 04:44 |
| Mediaprodigy | Someone please help me see FLASH videos... | 04:44 |
| scott_ino2 | semitones, try it, press Alt+F2 and see if you can do gconf-editor | 04:44 |
| komputes | Mediaprodigy: install the flashplugin-nonfree package | 04:45 |
| om26er | Mediaprodigy, sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree ? | 04:45 |

| pilif12p | lilzeus-web: there's #httpd | 04:46 |
| semitones | scott_ino2: only suspend and hibernate were selected, which is strange, since I had music playing the whole time, so I don't think it could have suspended.. heh | 04:46 |
| Out_Cold | lilzeus-web, there's also #apache | 04:46 |
| scott_ino2 | semitones, i don't think i follow... Alt+f2 should take you to a "run application" dialog | 04:47 |
| rejohn | Where are the UUIDs for the partitions on the HDD for the system stored? | 04:47 |
| scott_ino2 | run gconf-edito in a terminal | 04:47 |
| scott_ino2 | and see what you get | 04:47 |
| lilzeus-web | well, for some reason my websites don't work anymore...and I didn't change anything that I know of | 04:47 |

| semitones | scott_ino2: when I was in the "lock" section, the only ones checked were hibernate and suspend | 04:47 |
| semitones | scott_ino2: I unchecked suspend, but I don't think my computer was suspended | 04:48 |

| lilzeus-web | I have to 'register with services' in the #apache room if I want to ask questions?? what is that? | 04:49 |
| semitones | scott_ino2: ah I found it -- I have both ubuntu and xubuntu sessions. xfce has it's own set of settings I guess, and ignores all of gnome's settings | 04:49 |
| scott_ino2 | semitones, you might need to make sure it's disabled in screensaver as well | 04:49 |

| lilzeus-web | ugh | 04:53 |
| Dr_Willis | takes me all of 3 min to regiuster a nick name last time i had to. | 04:54 |
| Dr_Willis | Blame all the spam/attack bots/jerks | 04:54 |
| lilzeus-web | its probably been a couple months since I have been on, I don't remember this | 04:54 |
| semitones | They keep things interesting at least | 04:54 |
| mrp | lala | 04:54 |

| bob_ | Quick question. How can I give myself root rights? | 04:54 |
| Out_Cold | lilzeus-web, the mail may be delayed.. but it's well worth the registration | 04:55 |
| pilif12p | bob_: sudo su | 04:55 |
| semitones | bob_: sudo | 04:55 |
| raingrove | bob_: sudo su - | 04:55 |
| lilzeus-web | I would rather not give up my email just to chat | 04:55 |
| Dr_Willis | lilzeus-web: then use some temp email address.. | 04:55 |
| bob_ | How/where do I do that? | 04:55 |
| semitones | lilzeus-web: I don't think you need an email.. | 04:55 |
| maco | bob_: in a terminal... | 04:55 |
| pilif12p | bob_: In terminal | 04:55 |
| maco | !sudo | bob_ | 04:55 |
| ubottu | bob_: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 04:55 |
| Out_Cold | lilzeus-web, it's freenode... very friendly and honest bunch | 04:55 |
| lilzeus-web | arrrrgg | 04:56 |
| lilzeus-web | freakin httpd requires the same thing | 04:56 |
| ezrafree | hello | 04:56 |
| Dr_Willis | http://www.mailinator.com/ | 04:56 |
| semitones | lilzeus-web: although when I forgot my password, I wish I had used my email address | 04:56 |
| ezrafree | has anyone ever heard of firefox not opening files after they've downloaded? | 04:56 |
| Dr_Willis | semitones: yep. there is that problem | 04:56 |
| ezrafree | like i can see them in my Downloads window but when i click on them nothing happens. any thoughts? | 04:56 |
| Out_Cold | semitones, you need an email to mask or reset passwords.. | 04:56 |
| bob_ | I am trying to load "Rockbox" on my IPOD and I need Root rights. If I SUDO in Terminal will that work? | 04:56 |
| lilzeus-web | is the apache here on freenode specific to apache for ubuntu? | 04:57 |
| Out_Cold | lilzeus-web, no.. apache source | 04:57 |
| pilif12p | lilzeus-web: no. You wont get spammed by registering your nick. Trust me... | 04:57 |
| semitones | bob_: the rule of thumb is: use "sudo" if the application is commandline, gksu if you're using a graphical application | 04:57 |
| lilzeus-web | well, I am trying to register, it opened up some NickServ channel or something | 04:58 |
| bob_ | OK thanks. I'll give it a try. | 04:58 |
| semitones | bob_: and it's case sensitive, so SUDO wouldn't work, just sudo | 04:58 |
| bob_ | Got it. Thanks | 04:58 |
| Dr_Willis | lilzeus-web: thats because youia re 'chatting' with the nickserv bot. | 04:58 |
| bob_ | BRB | 04:58 |

| scott_ino2 | maco, i kinda miss using rpms | 05:05 |
| scott_ino2 | sometimes | 05:05 |
| lilzeus-web | lets see if anyone is alive in #httpd | 05:06 |
| rumpsy | tahta: you have to learn about ubuntu then | 05:06 |
| Dr_Willis | maco: yea. i recall it dosent do what people seem to think it 'does' :) | 05:07 |
| Dr_Willis | maco: ive just never seen what actually does use it. | 05:07 |
| lilzeus-web | so, is anyone else using apache? | 05:07 |
| lilzeus-web | lol | 05:07 |
| Dr_Willis | lilzeus-web: lots of people do. | 05:07 |
| rumpsy | lilzeus-web: yes i am | 05:07 |
| lilzeus-web | or better yet, phpbb | 05:07 |
| Izinucs | lilzeus-web: ask a question | 05:07 |
| futurama140 | maco: when i try to install the game it says no application suitable for automatic install | 05:08 |
| tahta | what kind of application that I can use to remaster my ubuntu? | 05:08 |
| Dr_Willis | !remaster | 05:08 |
| ubottu | Interested in remastering the Ubuntu !live CD? See: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization or use tools such as http://uck.sourceforge.net/ or http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/DRU_Disc_Remastering_Utility | 05:08 |
| maco | futurama140: i dont know what that means. ive never used this game | 05:08 |
| tc111 | my served up pxe / netbooting livecds (looped) worked prior to upgrading to karmic, now none of them do. here's my config, what's wrong with my server config: http://paste.ubuntu.com/365130/ | 05:08 |
| lilzeus-web | can anyone help me track down why websites are not working? | 05:09 |
| futurama140 | maco: its not just the game, its ANY program i try to install i get that message | 05:09 |
| Dr_Willis | futurama140: you download the installer then you should run teh installer. chmod +x RegnumWhatever then ./RegnumWhatever | 05:09 |
| Dr_Willis | futurama140: its going to be another 10 min download here... :) | 05:09 |
| maco | futurama140: how are you normally trying to install stuff? | 05:10 |
| Izinucs | lilzeus-web: so you made a site (html? .. Joomla?.. wordpress?) ? | 05:10 |
| lilzeus-web | that is in the form of a question | 05:10 |
| maco | futurama140: applications -> software center is giving you that error? | 05:10 |
| Izinucs | lilzeus-web: where did you put the files? | 05:10 |
| futurama140 | Dr_Willis: i have the installed. i downloaded it earlier today. 700mb. it wont install. | 05:10 |
| lilzeus-web | Izinucs: yep, I have a couple websites...simple html | 05:10 |
| Dr_Willis | futurama140: and if you RUN it from a terminal what does it say> | 05:10 |
| Dr_Willis | grr.. 18min download now.. :) | 05:10 |
| bob_ | Still having trouble. I am trying to run a grafical program as root. I tried gksudo then the program name in Terminal, it thinks about it a moment then show command prompt? | 05:12 |
| futurama140 | Dr_Willis: neither RUN nor run are found commands. | 05:12 |
| Izinucs | lilzeus-web: where did you put the files? | 05:12 |
| Dr_Willis | futurama140: you are confuseing things... | 05:12 |
| lilzeus-web | Public folder | 05:12 |
| lilzeus-web | my sites USED to work | 05:12 |
| futurama140 | maco: i see nothing in the application menu that says "software center" | 05:12 |
| Dr_Willis | futurama140: Hhow did you run the installer? --> somthing like? --> chmod +x RegnumWhatever then ./RegnumWhatever | 05:13 |
| Izinucs | lilzeus-web: can you be more specific.. /home/<user>/Public folder? or /var/www | 05:13 |
| maco | futurama140: what about "add/remove" if you're on an older version of ubuntu? | 05:13 |
| tucemiux | futurama140, youre using a netbook? | 05:13 |
| futurama140 | maco: im running 9.10. and it does have the add/remove. | 05:13 |
| futurama140 | tucemiux: no | 05:13 |
| maco | oh well thats a little odd | 05:13 |
| lilzeus-web | Izinucs: home/<user>/Public | 05:14 |
| Harold_parker | Out_Cold are you still around mate? | 05:14 |
| Dr_Willis | 9.10 has Ubuntu software center - instead of the add/remove icon now. :) | 05:14 |
| maco | ok so you say everything you try to install gives you an error. and thats with using add/remove? or you're installing some other way? | 05:14 |
| lilzeus-web | or rather home/<user>/Public/htdocs | 05:14 |
| Out_Cold | Harold_parker, half n half | 05:14 |
| maco | Dr_Willis: apparently not on futurama140's machine O_o | 05:14 |
| Harold_parker | Out_Cold if you have a sec would you mind checking this paste, that problem is still driving me mental: | 05:14 |
| Harold_parker | http://pastebin.com/d378788a2 | 05:14 |
| Harold_parker | thanks :) | 05:14 |
| futurama140 | maco: add/remove shows no prgoram with the name of the game when i search for it in the search box. | 05:15 |
| Izinucs | lilzeus-web: put one site in /var/www and the other in /var/www/<name>/ .. then to access http://localhost | 05:15 |

| tucemiux | futurama140, what game youre trying to install? you might have to edit your sources files and add a gpg key | 05:16 |

| maco | futurama140: i dont think we can reasonably tell you teh command to install some software we've never seen before. doenst it have a README? | 05:17 |
| lilzeus-web | Izinucs: are you suggesting I move the entire websites to those folders? | 05:17 |
| Out_Cold | Harold_parker, if that doesn't work then 777 it.... then see what you can deduce from there | 05:17 |
| Dr_Willis | futurama140: whats the name of the installer? | 05:17 |
| maco | futurama140: i mean, how do you expect us to know how some random software you found online works? | 05:17 |
| futurama140 | maco: the add/remove will let me install things. i just cant install using terminal or by double clicking installers. | 05:17 |
| Izinucs | lilzeus-web: that's where apache expects them to be | 05:17 |
| maco | futurama140: is the installer not a .deb ? | 05:17 |
| maco | futurama140: because thats the only sort of installer thatd work by double clicking | 05:17 |
| Dr_Willis | maco: no its not. :) | 05:18 |
| futurama140 | maco: amarok gives me the same error. i have NO programs associated with the file type used by the installers. | 05:18 |
| Dr_Willis | maco: im pretty sure its a sefl installing executable, | 05:18 |
| maco | Dr_Willis: O_o | 05:18 |
| Dr_Willis | maco: 4 more min till i have it downloaded. | 05:18 |
| tucemiux | maco, youre not helping any, it looks like he's trying to install a game that's not in the repos, you could help out by walking him on installing a deb package or adding the repo to his software list | 05:18 |
| futurama140 | file:///home/futurama140/Downloads/RegnumOnlineInstall_32 | 05:18 |
| lilzeus-web | Izinucs: trying to copy them over...its doing something strange | 05:18 |
| Harold_parker | Out_Cold, that worked. as far as troubleshooting goes, but is of course not the solution | 05:19 |
| maco | tucemiux: he claimed *nothing* could be installed. i thought his repositories were broken | 05:19 |
| Harold_parker | Out_Cold, thanks for looking though :) | 05:19 |
| Dr_Willis | futurama140: then from the termial do a 'chmode +x /home/futurama140/Downloads/RegnumOnlineInstall_32' | 05:19 |
| Dr_Willis | futurama140: then from the termial do a './home/futurama140/Downloads/RegnumOnlineInstall_32' | 05:19 |

| maco | futurama140: are you even sure it's linux software? | 05:19 |
| lilzeus-web | Izinucs: it won't let me copy the folders | 05:19 |
| tucemiux | maco, it doesnt even sound like he knows what he's doing, just ask him what he wants to do, what he wants to install and take it from there | 05:19 |

| ubottu | 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) | 05:19 |
| Dr_Willis | futurama140: i sort of said this about 10 min ago. | 05:19 |
| Linux-CLI | 10.04 | 05:19 |
| Izinucs | lilzeus-web: won't let you right? .. you have to use sudo in terminal or gksudo nautilus then drag and drop | 05:19 |
| futurama140 | maco: yes. its specifically for linux and was recomended for ubuntu | 05:19 |
| Linux-CLI | So it'll be released in April? | 05:20 |
| futurama140 | Dr_Willis explain what "chmode -x" does? | 05:20 |
| Dr_Willis | Linux-CLI: yep. Unless its delayed | 05:20 |
| Dr_Willis | futurama140: then from the termial do a 'chmode +x /home/futurama140/Downloads/RegnumOnlineInstall_32' | 05:20 |
| Dr_Willis | futurama140: makes it executable as i mentiooned earlier | 05:20 |
| maco | futurama140: it ch = change, mod = mode. it changes the mode to include x. x = executable. thus, it makes the file executable | 05:20 |
| Dr_Willis | futurama140: and like the forum threads on the game state | 05:20 |
| Dr_Willis | futurama140: untill its 'excutable' you cant run it | 05:20 |

| actionparsnip | Fwaokda: you can also pipe the output to grep for filtering. Or you can run top | 05:26 |
| tucemiux | Is it possible to resize kubuntu's resolution if youre running it as a guest OS using Vbox? | 05:26 |
| lilzeus-web | Izinucs: yes | 05:27 |
| Dravekx_ | who just helped me? someone just helped me. lol | 05:27 |
| Izinucs | tucemiux: you have to install the guest additions.. | 05:27 |
| Dr_Willis | futurama140: #1 - i got the 64bit version. You nee to use4 your filenames.. and be sure to use the right paths. | 05:27 |

| ezrafree | after startingfirefox in safe mode, with all my add-ons disabled, i still cannot open a downloaded file when clicking on it.. any ideas? | 05:27 |
| actionparsnip | Tucemiux: sure you will need to install the guest editions. You will need to fight xorg.conf then | 05:27 |
| amao | hola | 05:27 |
| tucemiux | Izinucs, i installed guest additions and I can't maximize the window | 05:27 |
| fwaokda | actionparsnip, i tried top and ps aux but i can't find the pid for my eclipse that is currently running... | 05:28 |
| futurama140 | i meant the command, not the file path, i used my own filepath by dragging and dropping | 05:28 |
| vadim_ | bubuntu | 05:28 |
| Izinucs | tucemiux: did you restart the guest? | 05:28 |
| lilzeus-web | Izinucs: when I put www.website.com they do not show up | 05:28 |
| Dr_Willis | futurama140: be sure it dosent add file://whatever to the front | 05:28 |
| stryker | how can I make the windows turn into fire when I minimize? | 05:28 |
| vadim_ | how connect to another server? | 05:28 |
| tucemiux | actionparsnip, can you create your own xorg.conf in karmic? | 05:28 |
| actionparsnip | Fwaokda: weird | 05:28 |
| vadim_ | say command pls | 05:28 |
| bazhang | stryker, enable in compizconfig-settings-manager | 05:28 |
| fwaokda | actionparsnip, i tried killall eclipse but that didn't work either... | 05:29 |
| tucemiux | Izinucs, to no avail, nothing changes, i even restart with kubuntu maximized, the screen size wont maximine | 05:29 |
| actionparsnip | Tucemiux: sure if its there it will be used. Here's a good sample one: http://www.google.com/m/url?cd=2&channel=gp1&client=ms-android-tmobile-gb&ct=res&ei=ZcNjS6jOJ5iQjAfCu__lAw&og=gp&oi=blended&q=http%3A%2F%2Fubuntuforums.org%2Fshowthread.php%3Ft%3D777759&resnum=2&sa=X&source=gp&uipref=6&ved=0CP___________wEQ____________ATAC&usg=AFQjCNGJBNC1ubaJl_G9DXT6v5zMftscOw | 05:29 |
| stryker | bazhang: I did enable it, under Animations > Minimize Animation > Burn, but nothing happens | 05:29 |
| Izinucs | lilzeus-web: yep.. because your browser goes out on the web to a DNS server to find that site and it doesn't exist as a valid site.. so it returns an error | 05:29 |
| actionparsnip | I hate google for that | 05:29 |
| bazhang | stryker, if you dont get an answer here the folks in #compiz can likely help | 05:29 |
| tucemiux | actionparsnip, thanks!!! that will be a good read while I compiled mixxx's latest beta version | 05:29 |
| zicada | i hate google for the fact that it lists TONS of posts of noobs | 05:29 |
| Izinucs | tucemiux: in the guest window did you simply "mount the guest additions"? or a menu choice like that? | 05:29 |
| actionparsnip | Fwaokda: try: ps -ef | less | 05:30 |
| zicada | who copy/pasts shit | 05:30 |

| zicada | greendude: what your connection has to do with the panel i have no idea, but are you saying rightclick doesnt work at all ? | 05:35 |
| greendude | zicada: I got in the guest account through a lot of work...my main account is still non functional | 05:35 |
| actionparsnip | Greendude: press alt+f2 and run nautilus | 05:35 |
| soreau | fwaokda: Look in $HOME/Desktop directory | 05:35 |
| zicada | greendude: boot into single | 05:36 |
| tucemiux | Izinucs, does it work fine on your machine? Kubuntu was playing nice as a guest OS but then I installed the updates and the screen would no longer change resolution, I had to install guest additions because it was very difficult to use the virtual machine, the resolution was too big and I had to scroll down to get to the menu | 05:36 |
| zicada | and drop a rootshell | 05:36 |
| actionparsnip | Greendude: nautilus draws some of the desktop so may help | 05:36 |
| vadim_ | omg this is bubuntu :E | 05:36 |
| greendude | zicada: that's right...right clicks do nothing on that panel now....I hit alt+ctrl+tab to switch panels, and that one shows up underneath, but still non-clickable, and auto reverts | 05:36 |
| lilzeus-web | Izinucs: I own the domains, I have dns pointing to my server here, I set up the virtual hosts...everything | 05:36 |

| actionparsnip | Vadim_: bubuntu? | 05:36 |
| Izinucs | tucemiux: ah.. what happened is you probably got a new kernel.. when that happens you have to reinstall the guest additions.. | 05:36 |
| greendude | actionparsnip: alt+f2 doesn't work either....I can go to a terminal though | 05:36 |
| fwaokda | soreau, they dont show in there either | 05:36 |

| vadim_ | eyp , russian say only bubuntu for fun | 05:36 |
| ezrafree | but after trying the advice on that URL i still cannot fix it... any ideas? | 05:37 |
| actionparsnip | Greendude: try launching nautilius from. Terminal | 05:37 |
| Izinucs | tucemiux: left doesn't do anything | 05:37 |
| zicada | greendude: what was the last thing you did before that happened tho mate | 05:37 |
| greendude | actionparsnip: would that be as sudo? and also what what would that do out of curiosity? | 05:37 |
| actionparsnip | Ezrafree: remove then reinstall firefox | 05:37 |
| Izinucs | lilzeus-web: sorry.. I've reached the end of my expertise.. | 05:37 |
| soreau | fwaokda: ls -a $HOME/Desktop | 05:37 |
| swapy | what is appdb? btw i have wine installed yet not tried to play with it | 05:38 |
| greendude | zicada: I added a new panel hoping it would dock below my default top panel, then things froze, then I rebooted, and now I'm here | 05:38 |
| soreau | fwaokda: Should list hidden files and folders too | 05:38 |
| swapy | any settings required for wine to play nfs carbon...... ?????? | 05:38 |

| tucemiux | ezrafree, once I have the software installed I just use synaptic to do that kind of stuff | 05:41 |
| greendude | actionparsnip:, zicada: brb...thanks for your help..going to try to restart nautilus and see what happens | 05:41 |

| Izinucs | tucemiux: that's kinda a pain.. what's the host? windows or linux? | 05:41 |

| iWolf[Away] | If you have the answer | 05:41 |
| iWolf[Away] | Please PM me | 05:41 |
| rww | swapy: sorry, /server, not /connect | 05:41 |
| Out_Cold | iWolf[Away], maybe file a bug... | 05:41 |
| tucemiux | Izinucs, ubuntu is the host, kubuntu is the guest | 05:41 |
| ezrafree | tucemiux: okay, thanks for the advice | 05:42 |
| tucemiux | Izinucs, I already have the share configured | 05:42 |
| zicada | while im here, any way of rolling back the ati propritery drivers if not installing from debs ? | 05:42 |
| jake_ | does anyone know how to get a ironkey flash drive to work in ubuntu | 05:42 |
| ezrafree | so i've removed, and then reinstalled, firefox... on 3.5.7 now... and yet still the same problem. any other ideas? | 05:42 |
| tucemiux | Izinucs, I already have the share configured on the virtual machine settings but how does the networking part work in kubuntu/ubuntu? | 05:42 |
| actionparsnip | Tucemiux: weird use of vbox. Keeping them pure? | 05:42 |
| Izinucs | tucemiux: in kubuntu? | 05:42 |
| swapy | ok guys let me see | 05:43 |
| tucemiux | Izinucs, yes, kubuntu is the guest, my files are on my ubuntu machine | 05:43 |
| actionparsnip | Zicada: you can force the drive in xorg.conf or uninstall the proprietary driver | 05:43 |
| greendude | actionparsnip: well all it did was start a nautilus window, but my panel problem remains... | 05:43 |
| actionparsnip | Greendude: gah | 05:43 |
| zicada | actionparsnip: yeah i mean like, remove all the libs | 05:43 |
| zicada | the drm stuff etc | 05:43 |
| ce_wek | hy | 05:43 |
| ezrafree | nm, i've fixed it now (had to remove my profile entirely) | 05:43 |
| L3dPlatedLinux | on gadmin-oproftpd 530 login incorrect on the virtual user I made its like it doesnt see them at all but it does see me and well the only diff is i have a account on the machine. so I dont know how to make it see the virtual users | 05:43 |
| greendude | actionparsnip: do you know any command or tool through which I can remove the new panel that I added? | 05:43 |
| zicada | lots of apps will likely depend on the ati libs after doing so | 05:44 |
| tucemiux | actionparsnip, not really, i use ubuntu mainly, i'm just trying out kubuntu, im also going to use kubuntu as a testing platform for appz | 05:44 |
| zicada | flash etc | 05:44 |
| Izinucs | tucemiux: in ubuntu you can point at folder and right mouse click>properties>share .. pretty much the same on kubuntu.. when going from one to the other you'll have to log in the share service when you try to access it | 05:44 |
| actionparsnip | Zicada: ps -ef | grep frglx and remove the package (if I spelled it wrong then correct it) | 05:44 |
| jake_ | does anyone know how an ironkey flash drive would work with linux | 05:44 |
| zicada | actionparsnip: hehe im stoked youre trying to help | 05:45 |
| actionparsnip | Tucemiux: you can have kde and gnome on one system you know and log off then back in to change desktop.. | 05:45 |
| zicada | actionparsnip: im not trying to rmmod the module tho, im trying to get rid of the files | 05:45 |
| tucemiux | Izinucs, excellent! Thanks! I'm going to close this window now, im draining all my laptop's juice, im going virtual, be back in a few | 05:45 |

| Bauer17 | quick question on new install. Build a new box for file server. Have a drive dedicated for ubuntu install and 2 other drives that I have with a raid 1 connection setup through motherboard. How do I get the raid to work in ubuntu without creating a software raid array? Thanks! | 05:45 |
| Out_Cold | jake_, ironkey is the encryption used?? | 05:45 |
| jake_ | yes | 05:45 |
| Out_Cold | may not be supported?? | 05:46 |
| Thoven78 | greendude: right click on the new panel you added and select Delete this panel | 05:46 |
| jake_ | could i use wine to get it to work | 05:46 |
| zicada | Bauer17: what raidcontroller | 05:46 |
| zicada | ? | 05:46 |
| actionparsnip | Zicada: if you use sudo apt-get --purge remove packagenameheredude then it will remove the fluff | 05:46 |
| tucemiux | actionparsnip, ummm... that kinda stuff works only in writing, the real world is a little different, do you know if kubuntu plays nice with a real time kernel in ubuntu studio? I dont want to be the first one to find out | 05:46 |
| greendude | Thoven78: unfortunately I can't interact with the panel...right click or single click, nothing works | 05:46 |
| zicada | actionparsnip: yeah but .. it wasnt through debs | 05:46 |
| zicada | actionparsnip: just the installer | 05:46 |
| Out_Cold | jake_, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=885167 | 05:46 |
| zicada | actionparsnip: im 99% sure its not possible | 05:46 |
| Thoven78 | where is the new panel you created locate? | 05:47 |
| Out_Cold | if that doesn't work, check back | 05:47 |
| actionparsnip | Zicada: I believe the installer installs a deb. You could redownload the installer and see if it has an uninstall option | 05:47 |
| Bauer17 | on a Intel motherboard using the Intel Rapid Recovery Technology | 05:47 |
| Bauer17 | built into the board | 05:48 |
| zicada | actionparsnip: i didnt build debs cause it failed horribly | 05:48 |
| zicada | Bauer17: should pretty much autodetect it | 05:48 |
| zicada | Bauer17: any actual issue, or just checking beforehand ? | 05:48 |
| actionparsnip | Tucemiux: not something I've used dude. Can't see why not but what you have is working so I wouldn't try to fix it ;) | 05:48 |
| Bauer17 | it looks like they are detected, but do I need to do a format on them to get them going... not able to access them, I do have a screenshot if that helps | 05:49 |
| zicada | Bauer17: well, what fs is the array formatted in now ? | 05:49 |
| swapy | guys i have currently updated my ubuntu ultimate edition linux now i want to backup all updates and what programs i have installed but how can i do it | 05:49 |

| iWolf | May Be Away, Or Here | 05:52 |
| Bauer17 | is there a way to do it through the gui? | 05:52 |
| zicada | Bauer17: then you need to mount it, and add entry to /etc/fstab so it gets automounted each time you boot | 05:52 |

| Dr_Willis | swapy: try the 'which PROGRAMNAME' command to see where its at.. or perhaps set teh default app for .torrent files in teh gnome file manager | 05:55 |
| actionparsnip | Swapy: you can get the path of any app if you use: which appnamehere | 05:55 |
| Dr_Willis | swapy: ive been testing out qTorrent lately. :) | 05:55 |
| swapy | actionparsnip, didnt get you | 05:56 |
| Dr_Willis | oop i mean 'qBitTorrent' | 05:56 |
| swapy | qtorrent ? does it have a gui? | 05:56 |
| Dr_Willis | swapy: use 'which transmission' | 05:56 |
| Dr_Willis | swapy: yes. | 05:56 |
| Dr_Willis | Most torrent apps have a gui. :) i can think of a few cli based ones | 05:56 |
| LinuxPhreak | I'm trying to change the sound the plays when I logout of Ubuntu. But I have 2 problems. I don't know what it is called and I don't know if it has to be a certain length. I do however know the location of it. Can some help me with this | 05:56 |
| swapy | ok i will type which transmission when it tells me to browse ? am i right? | 05:56 |
| actionparsnip | Swapy: the command 'which' will tell you what actual file will be ran if you type a command | 05:57 |
| ECKTI | hello i need some help installing some graphics drivers on Ubuntu. Anybody wanna help me out? | 05:57 |
| blood_ | test | 05:57 |
| Izinucs | ECKTI: what drivers | 05:57 |
| Dr_Willis | swapy: that will show the path to point the browser at. | 05:57 |
| ECKTI | I have an ATI Radeon 9250 and I downloaded the drivers | 05:57 |
| swapy | let me try what you said | 05:57 |
| actionparsnip | Swapy: so if you want the path to a file you can use which to tell you | 05:57 |
| ECKTI | they are saved in my downloads but i dont know how to install them | 05:57 |
| Dr_Willis | swapy: i justy set the default file type for .torrents to be whatever torrent app i want. and i think thats what firefox defaults to | 05:57 |
| ECKTI | These are the directions I have to install ::: To install the ATI Proprietary Linux driver using the Automatic option, follow these steps: | 05:58 |
| ECKTI | 1. Launch the Terminal Application/Window and navigate to the ATI Proprietary Linux driver download. | 05:58 |
| ECKTI | 2. Enter the command sh ./ati-driver-installer-8.28.8.run to launch the ATI Proprietary Linux driver installer. The ATI Proprietary Linux Driver Setup dialog box is displayed. | 05:58 |
| FloodBot4 | ECKTI: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:58 |
| ECKTI | what u mean? what diod i do | 05:58 |
| Izinucs | ECKTI: check their site.. if they say that the driver are not compatible with xorg 7.XX then they won't work anyway.. actually check if your card is supported in the current linux driver or if the mention an older driver.. if it's older then it won't work | 05:58 |
| actionparsnip | Dr_Willis: I think firefox has its own helper apps which you set | 05:58 |
| zicada | ECKTI: open up a command prompt, cd Downloads; chmod +x ati*; sh ati* --buildpkg Ubuntu/karmic ; sudo dpkg -i *.deb ; done | 05:58 |
| Dr_Willis | swapy: many torrent apps have a setting to 'auto load from' specific directroies also. You can set that up where you just save the .torrent files to thazt location and they will auto start them | 05:58 |
| zicada | ECKTI: inform me if you get any errors | 05:58 |
| swapy | i am asking for any program or app many a times i require to browse as for eg in windows i did by going in program files same what is in ubuntu ..?? | 05:58 |
| ECKTI | zicada, should i enter everything u said in the above comment starting with cd Downloads? | 05:59 |
| actionparsnip | Swapy: it will usually be in /usr/bin | 05:59 |
| zicada | ECKTI: yeah | 05:59 |
| Dr_Willis | swapy: linux binaries can be in different locations. they dont all get tossed in a 'program files' place. | 05:59 |
| zicada | then type in your pass when asked for it | 05:59 |
| onetinsoldier | ECKTI: with that old of a card, you might just be better off sticking with the built-in open source drivers that come with Ubuntu | 05:59 |
| swapy | Dr_Willis, ya i have that idea that ubuntu dosent have program files | 06:00 |
| swapy | one more question | 06:00 |
| Dr_Willis | swapy: windows dosent actually keep everything in 'program files' either. :) | 06:00 |
| actionparsnip | Swapy: the linux filesystem is a little more complicated as libs for one app can be used in many | 06:00 |
| swapy | i want to defragment my ntfs drives in linux which porgram will help | 06:00 |

| xamctep | hi ppls | 06:01 |
| ECKTI | zicada it returned an error | 06:01 |
| ECKTI | bash: syntax error near unexpected token `done' | 06:01 |
| Izinucs | mikeymoo: linux does't like names with spaces.. so you have to "cd /media/MIK<tab> " to get the right syntax | 06:01 |
| zicada | heh, sorry | 06:01 |
| actionparsnip | Swapy: np man, makes the world go around | 06:02 |
| zicada | ECKTI: cut off the ;done | 06:02 |
| zicada | part | 06:02 |

| mikeymoo | thanks iz | 06:02 |
| LinuxPhreak | can someone help me with my problem | 06:02 |
| ECKTI | now it says Cant open ati*--buildpkg | 06:02 |
| swapy | yahoo !! /usr/bin worked :) thanks now i can set path | 06:03 |
| actionparsnip | Swapy: may help. Personally i'd do it under windows as ntfs is proprietary and you may break stuff: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-407230.html | 06:03 |

| actionparsnip | Linuxphreak: wassup? | 06:04 |
| swapy | actionparsnip, actually ntfs drives were created for windows yet to optimize them i dont know will defragment work in linux yet i know there is no need for ext4 fs to defrag | 06:04 |
| LinuxPhreak | I've changed the login sound for Ubuntu but I'm having trouble changing the Logout sound | 06:04 |
| LinuxPhreak | I don't know the name of the file | 06:05 |
| swapy | Dr_Willis, is there any more view in ubuntu only 3 views available compact list and tree not much impressive :( | 06:05 |
| LinuxPhreak | does it have to be a certain length or is there no limitation on the length | 06:05 |
| zicada | swapy: there's no such thing as defrag in windows | 06:05 |
| zicada | swapy: err, on linux | 06:05 |
| actionparsnip | Swapy: personally I wouldn't defrag ntfs in linux. You could make a bartpe cd using an xp cd to make a live windows os and defrag there. or use your windows install if you dual boot | 06:06 |
| zicada | jees, its late | 06:06 |
| reves | how do i bring back a desktop panel in gnome when ive removed them all by accident? | 06:06 |

| actionparsnip | Zicada: its pretty pointless but you can | 06:06 |
| Dr_Willis | swapy: i dont klnwo what you are refering to.. if you mean file manager stuff,,theres dozens of other file managers you can use. | 06:06 |
| swapy | actionparsnip, is there any more powerful file manager as nautilus has only three views icon compact and list view | 06:06 |
| zicada | actionparsnip: who uses ext2 lately tho hehe | 06:06 |
| swapy | Dr_Willis, yes your are right | 06:07 |
| actionparsnip | Zicada: people with SSD HDDs to reduce wear | 06:07 |

| zicada | is swapy trolling or am i paranoid | 06:08 |
| Dr_Willis | swapy: think about it..... | 06:08 |
| zicada | mostly used for scanning email mate | 06:08 |
| swapy | Dr_Willis, i mean with more views the 3 views werent so good so i asked | 06:08 |
| actionparsnip | Swapy: its good for mail servers and samba file servers to protect users whom upload files with virus' | 06:08 |
| Dr_Willis | swapy: i always use list view.. so its not really somtjing i care about. | 06:08 |
| zicada | mostly a server thing | 06:08 |
| Dr_Willis | swapy: theres work in the next gnome to add more purty previews and stuff.. | 06:09 |
| swapy | ok what program you use as desktop search engine i am indexing via google desktop which is v v slow :( any suggestions | 06:09 |
| zicada | spam filters tend to drop any attachment that could be a windows virus tho lately | 06:09 |
| actionparsnip | Swapy: do you search a lot? | 06:10 |
| swapy | yes | 06:10 |
| actionparsnip | Swapy: I see. I suggest you organise your files better then you won't need to search ever :) | 06:10 |
| zicada | tidy up your files and know where stuff is ? | 06:10 |
| zicada | haha yeah | 06:10 |
| swapy | http://www.voidtools.com/ fastest indexing software in world perhaps but in windows only :( | 06:10 |
| Dr_Willis | swapy: i rarely need to search my desktop. I know where i put thingws. | 06:11 |
| actionparsnip | Swapy: I use find at cli if I gotta search though | 06:11 |
| ECKTI | How come when I try installing software from th Ubuntu software center i click on install and nothing happens? | 06:11 |
| zicada | swapy: what you want to do is try to get used to terminals | 06:11 |
| swapy | Dr_Willis, i am not used to linux so require to search for files often | 06:11 |
| actionparsnip | Eckti: run it with: gksudo software-center | 06:11 |
| zicada | swapy: its been shown to be alot faster and easier for file management than a UI | 06:11 |
| rdunnion | openoffice help, anyone? | 06:12 |
| ECKTI | when do i find that? | 06:12 |
| Dr_Willis | swapy: it pays to get organized. :) | 06:12 |
| actionparsnip | Eckti: press alt+f2 and type it | 06:12 |
| zicada | ECKTI: now that, is a hard question | 06:12 |
| ECKTI | thanks | 06:12 |
| actionparsnip | !ask | rdunnion | 06:12 |
| ubottu | rdunnion: 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. :-) | 06:12 |
| swapy | ok which will b better beagle google desktop or ....... whatever you say plz suggest :( | 06:12 |
| futurama140 | hey am i able to copy a bunch of pictures to my /usr/share/backgrounds folder? it tells me permission is denied, and it wont let me change permissions. im not sure what the commands are for terminal | 06:13 |
| actionparsnip | Swapy: you will get a 50/50 split. Try both and see which you prefer | 06:13 |
| wolter | swapy, Places > Search for files... works right | 06:13 |
| actionparsnip | Futurama40: use: gksudo nautilus | 06:13 |
| Dr_Willis | futurama140: its best to not copy things over to system directroies like that. Keep your user files in the users home | 06:13 |
| futurama140 | actionparsnip: thanks! | 06:13 |
| actionparsnip | Futurama40: you can now copy because as a user you only have read access to the folder | 06:13 |
| swapy | wolter, i want to index files dude not search specific folder | 06:13 |
| Dr_Willis | futurama140: theres no real need to put them there. | 06:13 |
| wolter | swapy, oh ok | 06:13 |
| wolter | swapy, well, then i wouldn't know :s | 06:14 |
| ECKTI | see I type it in but nothing comes up | 06:14 |
| ECKTI | whats up with that | 06:14 |
| zicada | futurama140: keep all data local to your homedir, they generally take prescedence over system files | 06:14 |
| actionparsnip | Eckti: did you close the first one? | 06:14 |
| lilzeus-web | could anyone help me get my apache websites working again? | 06:14 |
| ECKTI | yea | 06:14 |
| swapy | wolter, still thanks for reply :) | 06:14 |
| * Dr_Willis has 8+GB of wallpapers in his /home/willis/wallpaper dir | 06:14 | |
| zicada | Dr_Willis: why ? :D | 06:14 |
| rdunnion | ok....my resume in doc format doesn't look the same in word as it does in OO. I would like to use OO exclusively but the people who are reading my resume more often than not will be using word.i need to make sure it appears correctly in word if i edit in OO. How can I do this? | 06:14 |
| actionparsnip | Eckti: ok run it in a terminal. Is there an error message output | 06:14 |
| wolter | swapy, i would bet that beagle does the job right, but wouldn't know with certainty | 06:15 |
| ECKTI | let me try it hold on | 06:15 |
| * actionparsnip doesn't use wallpaper | 06:15 | |
| Dr_Willis | zicada: its about a 7+ yr collection over the years | 06:15 |
| Carci | I've got a really noobish question... but I can't find the answer to it anywhere online. Uh, how do I set my Ubuntu 9.10 install to mount a particular partition (/dev/sda5 in my case) upon booting? | 06:15 |
| zicada | Dr_Willis: hehe ok | 06:15 |
| Dr_Willis | Carci: put a proper entry in /etc/fstab | 06:15 |
| rahduke | Just installed fresh copy of 9.10 on a new htpc.... for some reason it can't see my homenetwork.... I have smb installed. Can someone help me out. Getting "Failed to retrieve share list from server" error | 06:15 |
| actionparsnip | !fstab | carci | 06:15 |
| ubottu | carci: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 06:15 |

| actionparsnip | Hehe np carci. | 06:16 |
| ECKTI | whats the difference | 06:16 |
| Carci | The sad thing is... | 06:16 |
| wolter | ECKTI, with gksudo/gksu/sudo you have admin rights | 06:16 |
| Carci | I've USED fstab before. >.< | 06:16 |
| actionparsnip | Eckti: cool, nothing should be different. Bring up alt+f2 again and check spelling etc. Weird | 06:16 |
| wolter | and you can do whatever you want to your system, including destroying it | 06:16 |
| actionparsnip | Carci: d'oh | 06:17 |
| zicada | Carci: ha facepalm | 06:17 |

| swapy | guys help trying to install beagle software manager says waiting for other sofware managers to quit :(( | 06:19 |
| actionparsnip | Swapy: you can't have any other app touching the packages as it will lock them. Stuff like autoupdates will do this | 06:19 |
| remyo_ | How do you cp files from one directory into multiple other directories? | 06:19 |
| Dr_Willis | rahduke: i always fall back tot eh command line to mount some shares.. the gnome file manager is a little weird at times | 06:19 |
| Dr_Willis | rahduke: are you SURE thats a proper share name? | 06:19 |
| swapy | dont know why its happening maybe restart reqiured | 06:19 |
| zicada | remyo_: well | 06:20 |
| rahduke | Dr_Willis: yup... | 06:20 |
| zicada | remyo_: how many dirs ? | 06:20 |
| IdleOne | swapy: do you have Synaptic open? | 06:20 |
| actionparsnip | swapy: if one isn't running then I suggest a reboot | 06:20 |
| remyo_ | zicada: Like 4 or 5 | 06:20 |
| Dr_Willis | rahduke: check with the 'smbtree' and 'findsmb' commands | 06:20 |
| rahduke | i think its a problem on where its mounting the shares... how can i change that | 06:20 |
| swapy | ok rebooting :) | 06:20 |
| IdleOne | yeah, rebooting will fix it. always works in windows | 06:20 |
| Dr_Willis | rahduke: nautilus mounts them automacally under the .gvfs stuff.. i doub tif its the issue | 06:20 |
| rigodeni | hey guys, ubuntu failed to load properly last time, and now since i booted in my screen resolution is like its in safe mode, how do i get my resolution back? | 06:21 |
| [BT]Brendan | Every time I reboot the mounted name of my Storage partition gets changed from "Storage" to "Storage_" and there is left behind a "Storage" folder containing 1 of folders with nothing in it. | 06:21 |

| actionparsnip | Is there a gnome3 ppa for ubuntu yet. I haven't broken my system in a while and fancy a giggle | 06:21 |

| lilzeus-web | what is with #httpd having, I don't know, 100+ ppl and nobody is talking? | 06:21 |
| rahduke | Dr_Willis: what do u think it is | 06:21 |
| rahduke | ? | 06:21 |
| Dr_Willis | rahduke: i often edit my /etc/hosts to have the proper ip/machine name. and enable the 'wins' server in my smb.conf seems to help | 06:21 |
| Dr_Willis | rahduke: i think its windows being stupid really.... | 06:22 |
| rahduke | Dr_Willis: I'm not using windows...lol I am using samba but no windows computers on this network | 06:22 |
| actionparsnip | Lilzeus-web: that is a possibility. Just keep checking back | 06:22 |
| rahduke | this computer will be put on a clients windows network though so i need it to work correctly | 06:22 |
| Dr_Willis | rahduke: if uysing linux to linux - then NFS will be MUCH faster for file transfers | 06:22 |
| Dr_Willis | rahduke: enable the wins server feature perhaps - may help. and set the hosts file to map ip to hostname perhaps | 06:23 |
| actionparsnip | Rahduke: if you have ssh on them for easy management you can use sshfs | 06:23 |
| Dr_Willis | rahduke: ive also noticed that some wireless routers block samba shareing | 06:23 |
| rahduke | Dr_Willis: both host and client are connected directly to router... | 06:24 |
| zicada | set up a freakin trust relationship and use ssh | 06:24 |
| zicada | scp | 06:24 |
| zicada | etc | 06:24 |
| zicada | or even sshfs | 06:24 |
| hunt | Hi, I've got my ~/Desktop on a seperated ntfs partition, now everytime delete something I get a message saying it could not be moved to the trash bin and I have to delete it permanently, how do I fix this? | 06:24 |
| rahduke | zicada: this computer will not be on my network long | 06:24 |
| zicada | rahduke: but it will be on A network | 06:25 |
| zicada | rahduke: the real question is what is going to be its purpose | 06:25 |
| swapy | sad no luck after reboot ....... it says waiting for other software managers to quit | 06:25 |
| rahduke | zicada: yes, but they are computer illiterate, it just needs to work... its a custom HTPC box | 06:25 |
| actionparsnip | hunt: I don't think ntfs stores permissions like linux needs which may be making issues | 06:25 |
| actionparsnip | !trash | 06:25 |
| ubottu | The location of Trash has changed since 8.04, it is now located in ~/.local/share/Trash | Looking for the trash in previous versions: ~/.Trash | 06:25 |

| rahduke | i've built over 10 of them and they all worked no problem | 06:25 |
| zicada | rahduke: so the usecase is ? | 06:26 |
| actionparsnip | Hunt: make sure you have write access and ownership of the trash folder | 06:26 |
| rahduke | zicada: huh? | 06:26 |
| zicada | rahduke: play vids on a tv ? | 06:26 |
| zicada | rahduke: what is the machine to be used for ? | 06:26 |
| lilzeus-web | question: how do I "make the hostname resolve to the local IP of your server"? | 06:26 |
| zicada | what will its purpose be, how will it be connected ? | 06:26 |
| himanshu_ | @everybody plz tell me how tp format pendrive under ubuntu platform. | 06:26 |

| [BT]Brendan | himanshu_, you want 1195 people to all tell you the same thing, twice? | 06:27 |
| rahduke | zicada: it will be connected via wifi | 06:27 |
| zicada | rahduke: all right, then one default location for storing all files in the home is usually the way to go | 06:27 |
| himanshu_ | no...a single reply will serve my purpose. | 06:27 |
| zicada | rahduke: figuring out wether it will be the box, or some other box would be step1 | 06:27 |
| actionparsnip | Lilzeus-web: add an entry in /etc/hosts and the name will resolve to the ip you set | 06:27 |
| jugger90 | I already setup PXE booting but i don't now how to run RAM entirely | 06:28 |
| himanshu_ | @Brendan could you help me. | 06:28 |
| [BT]Brendan | no | 06:28 |
| rahduke | zicada: well i want to be able to work with anything they do in the future, NAS, stream from new network source (laptop, new computer etc) | 06:28 |
| actionparsnip | Jugger90: the liveCd by default uses ram only | 06:28 |
| himanshu_ | :( | 06:28 |
| himanshu_ | ok , | 06:28 |
| zicada | rahduke: sure, but you generally want to plan first | 06:28 |
| himanshu_ | could somebody plz tell me how tp format pendrive under ubuntu platform.? | 06:28 |
| zicada | rahduke: where do i want my data, how will other machines connect and retrieve this data | 06:29 |
| zicada | rahduke: etc | 06:29 |
| lilzeus-web | actionparsnip: can you provide an example? | 06:29 |
| swapy | omg its a bug it continously waits for software managers to quit https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/464020 :( cant install anything now from ubuntu software center this happened after i updated my ubuntu :( any ideas | 06:29 |
| sayanriju | himanshu_, You can install and use the friendly GUI of gParted | 06:29 |
| swapy | help! | 06:29 |
| zicada | rahduke: like "what works best here, in this setup, with the least amt of hassle" | 06:29 |
| zicada | swapy: you have another one running | 06:29 |
| actionparsnip | Lilzeus-web: open the file. There are entrys already in there. Your example :) | 06:29 |
| rahduke | zicada: bottom line is, I'm selling this thing as-is and all the other boxes ive made just work without any technical skill required. | 06:30 |
| zicada | swapy: not a bug | 06:30 |
| iflema | himanshu_ plug it in and right click on the desktop icon then select foemat | 06:30 |
| zicada | rahduke: aaah | 06:30 |
| zicada | rahduke: and the issue was ? | 06:30 |
| actionparsnip | !fixapt | swapy | 06:30 |

| jugger90 | can LiveCD dawnload packages? I will want lots of package download mainly IRC bot thing | 06:30 |
| lilzeus-web | actionparsnip: do I need to restart anything to get this to work? | 06:30 |

| himanshu_ | sayanriju, how to install gParted ? | 06:31 |
| rahduke | zicada: lol i know... error is "Unable to mount location" Failed to retrieve share list from server | 06:31 |
| gilberto | using gnome is not difficult | 06:31 |
| actionparsnip | Lilzeus-web: no its good to go after you save the new file. You can test with: dig name | 06:31 |
| sayanriju | himanshu_, sudo apt-get install gparted | 06:31 |
| LordofKings | i see kde to be better with graphics...like os x and vista | 06:31 |
| zicada | rahduke: windows boxes browse the lan find i take it ? | 06:31 |
| zicada | *fine | 06:32 |

| himanshu_ | sayanriju, ok , thank you ..i am trying it. | 06:32 |
| LordofKings | but i find it difficult..because there are many other desktop environments... | 06:32 |
| Dr_Willis | LordofKings: 'better with graphics' is sort of a meaningless statement.. | 06:32 |
| LordofKings | ok..i am beginner.. | 06:32 |
| swapy | actionparsnip, what does this mean i didint get you | 06:32 |
| Dr_Willis | LordofKings: stick with gnome then. its not too hard to learn | 06:32 |
| swapy | error is like this " E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. | 06:32 |
| LordofKings | i need to start with one thin right. | 06:32 |
| sayanriju | himanshu_, of course, you can do the entire formatting from the terminal too, w/o needing to install anything! | 06:32 |
| LordofKings | ok gnome it is.. | 06:32 |
| actionparsnip | Lordofkings: you have choice in linux, you made one choice to install ubuntu. Just make another about you DE | 06:33 |
| Dr_Willis | LordofKings: crawl, walk, run, fly...... | 06:33 |
| zicada | LordofKings: haha if youre a beginner, just use the default | 06:33 |
| zicada | LordofKings: its fine | 06:33 |
| himanshu_ | how ? | 06:33 |
| sayanriju | himanshu_, can you identify your pen drve device? | 06:33 |
| swapy | yahoo corrected problem thanks guys | 06:33 |
| sayanriju | something like sdb, etc? | 06:33 |
| actionparsnip | Swapy: run the command it says: the system is telling you what to type | 06:33 |
| himanshu_ | on terminal ? | 06:33 |
| lalalachuchu | hi guys, ubuntu+1 doesnt work and I get sent to ubuntu-unregged, where do I ask Qs about lucid? | 06:33 |
| swapy | actionparsnip, did the same thanks :) | 06:33 |
| himanshu_ | identify the device on terminal? | 06:34 |
| sayanriju | himanshu_, anywhere, you just need to know your device | 06:34 |
| hunt | actionparship: I recently chowned my /home, since the trash is in there it should have the right permissions | 06:34 |
| IdleOne | !register |lalalachuchu | 06:34 |
| ubottu | lalalachuchu: Information about registering your nickname: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#userregistration - Type « /nick <nickname> » to select your nickname. Registration help available in #freenode | 06:34 |

| himanshu_ | yes , i can identify it. | 06:34 |
| iWolf | actionparsnip: Any idea on my wireless problem? | 06:34 |
| sayanriju | himanshu_, if you do, just check with the command 'sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb' | 06:34 |
| actionparsnip | Hunt: logical but I don't think ntfs can store the permission | 06:34 |
| sayanriju | himanshu_, replace sdb with whatever your device is | 06:34 |
| actionparsnip | Iwolf: sup? | 06:35 |
| himanshu_ | ok | 06:35 |
| swapy | can we get to know which all apps can be installed via terminal with this command "sudo apt-get install program" where program is eg vlc can i know the list | 06:35 |
| sayanriju | himanshu_, the command would list the partitions in your pen drive, put the o/p on pastebin | 06:35 |
| actionparsnip | Swapy: apt-cache search somethinghere | 06:35 |
| iWolf | actionparsnip: I follwed the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EeePC/Fixes -- But I don't think it's working (eeePC 900 [Celeron] ) | 06:35 |
| hunt | actionparship: well the trash folder is not an a ntfs volume, does that make a difference? | 06:35 |
| swapy | actionparsnip, where is it | 06:36 |
| actionparsnip | Hunt: the trash folder is stored on the ntfs partition which may cause issues | 06:36 |
| Dr_Willis | !apt-get | swapy | 06:36 |
| ubottu | swapy: 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) | 06:36 |
| actionparsnip | Swapy: same place you type sudo apt-get install stuff | 06:36 |
| jugger90 | ok i will try lucid alpha 2 LiveCD on my HHD broken laptop | 06:37 |
| hunt | actionparship: no the trash folder is under /.local/share/Trash which is on an ext4 volume, just ~/Desktop ~/Documents and such are linked to a ntfs volume | 06:37 |
| seank | swapy: sudo apt-cache dump | grep Package: would show you a list of all packages | 06:37 |

| wash | Anyone know how to set up favicons in Apache 2.2 on a box running Ubuntu Server? | 06:41 |
| swapy | btw i want a remote desktop client which can help connect pc with windows installed any ideas?? | 06:41 |
| paulo | i'm setupping a web-server | 06:41 |
| actionparsnip | Ardchoile you can check by running moer. The system will spot you and tell you what its part of | 06:41 |
| paulo | and when i try to see my info.php on firefox | 06:42 |
| actionparsnip | Swapy: tsclient | 06:42 |
| paulo | and firefox try to dl it | 06:42 |
| faileas | swapy: any rdp client will do that. iirc tsclient is one, or krdp | 06:42 |
| paulo | instead of view it | 06:42 |
| seank | wash: put favicon.ico in your web directory ? | 06:42 |
| paulo | o.o | 06:42 |
| ardchoille | actionparsnip: wowsers, nice! | 06:42 |
| wash | Yep | 06:42 |
| seank | wash: yeah thats all you need to do. | 06:42 |
| actionparsnip | Ardchoile: part of commandnotfound package ;) | 06:42 |
| wash | Hm. File might be configured wrong. Do I need something other than gimp? | 06:42 |
| ardchoille | actionparsnip: kudos to the person who made that package | 06:42 |
| himanshu_ | sayanriju, after typing that command ,'sudo fdisk -l' i get a list of device and partition | 06:43 |
| wash | the image that is | 06:43 |
| sayanriju | himanshu_, put it up on pastebin (the above list you got) | 06:43 |
| himanshu_ | how to identify which is the one i am looking for | 06:43 |
| actionparsnip | Ardchoile: totally. It will also tell you the command to run if you try to launch an app which isn't installed currently | 06:43 |
| swapy | and any program to monitor my network ie lan and net traffic showing me graphs and amount of data download and upload ??????? | 06:43 |
| seank | wash: should be able to save it as a gif or png with a .ico extension. | 06:43 |
| paulo | I'm trying to access the page info.php but my firefox tries to download it instead of viewing it | 06:44 |
| sayanriju | wash, there are several online favicon converters, but IMO gimp should do the trick | 06:44 |

| faileas | paulo: i run an ubuntu web server, never had that happen to me | 06:46 |
| wash | *nods* | 06:46 |
| ardchoille | swapy: conky can do that, but you need to configure it to do so | 06:46 |
| Harold_parker | faileas, that isn't a solution to the problem. this needs to work longterm. can you determine what is triggering the error? | 06:46 |
| Dr_Willis | swapy: check out conky | 06:46 |
| seank | wash: i really thought you could save the ico as a gif/png just with ico extension, browsers these days will know.. but i could be wrong, haven't set up a favicon in a while. | 06:46 |

| igie | Hi folks, I've just recently upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10 and for some reason firefox has no sound... anyone know why or how to fix this ? | 06:53 |
| Harold_parker | ardchoille can you please be specific rather than linking me to an introduction to permissions pls | 06:53 |
| lilzeus-web | so, where do I go for help with my apache and fixing my DNS problem? | 06:53 |
| tucemiux | hey how can you enable folders to show up on your deskstop kubuntu? | 06:53 |
| lilzeus-web | because it is clear that #httpd is of no help | 06:54 |
| tucemiux | lilzeus-web, try #web ??? | 06:54 |
| chilli0 | tucemiux, #kubuntu ? | 06:54 |
| AutoMatony | I cant create directories in my own home/user folder with mkdir via SFTP, any ideas why? permissions are all 777. | 06:54 |
| Dr_Willis | !autostart | swapy | 06:54 |
| ubottu | swapy: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot | 06:54 |
| actionparsnip | Igie: if you rename you mozilla settings folder and relaunch it, is it ok? | 06:54 |
| tucemiux | lilzeus-web, you can also try loggin in this channel at another time and day | 06:54 |
| tucemiux | chilli0, ever been to #kubuntu? | 06:54 |
| actionparsnip | Igie: just to test, you can rename back | 06:54 |
| iflema | Harold_parker be careful using the -R option is what im saying.. it will apply to all under..... | 06:54 |
| Dr_Willis | swapy: make a script that waits 20 sec.. then launches conky.. and make gnome auto start that script. (is the easiest way i find) | 06:54 |
| igie | actionparsnip: let me try | 06:55 |
| Harold_parker | iflema i know thanks mate | 06:55 |
| wash | Still no luck. | 06:55 |
| actionparsnip | Igie: could always try the mozilla ppa for a later build. May help | 06:55 |
| wash | Don't I need to define it in the header though? | 06:55 |
| igie | actionparsnip: ppa ? | 06:55 |
| Dr_Willis | wow - conky saw when i edited my .conkyrc and auto-restarted... | 06:55 |
| actionparsnip | !ppa | igie | 06:55 |
| ubottu | igie: 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. | 06:55 |
| Dr_Willis | when did it start doing that. :) | 06:55 |
| AutoMatony | I cant create directories in my own home/user folder with mkdir via SFTP, any ideas why? permissions are all 777. | 06:55 |
| razertek | actionparsnip: do you think you might have an idea why my pages load slowly in firefox but yet i get the speedtest results i should have? | 06:55 |
| tucemiux | chilli0, forget it, i figured it out, kubuntu is starting to suck big time, they have a virtual desktop and you have to click on a button so you can see folders in your desktop? are they out of their minds??!!!??? | 06:55 |
| lilzeus-web | is it me or is #httpd notorious for mean, unhelpful people? | 06:55 |
| actionparsnip | Dr_willis: wow awesome :) | 06:55 |

| ubottu | lilzeus-web, AutoMatony: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 06:56 |
| Harold_parker | found bug | 06:56 |
| razertek | actionparsnip: ty | 06:56 |
| Harold_parker | hmmmmmm | 06:57 |
| tucemiux | AutoMatony, that tends to happen a lot when you dont stick to a topic | 06:57 |
| igie | actionparsnip: yes, when i mouse over music icons i get the sounds | 06:57 |
| Harold_parker | tucemiux do you say this having viewed my pastebin, or just in general...? | 06:57 |
| actionparsnip | Igie: good start. If you rename your mozilla profile in $HOME then rerun so you get a stock profile is it ok? | 06:58 |
| tucemiux | Harold_parker, i say in general, if you believe you found a bug then I highly suggest you file a bug report, otherwise the bug will keep on creeping into ubuntu for eternity, the developers in launchpad actually have more activity than users in the forums, from my experience | 06:58 |
| lilzeus-web | OMFG!!!! | 06:59 |
| Harold_parker | tucemiux once i'm sure i've found a bug i'll definitely report it, thanks | 06:59 |

| tucemiux | AutoMatony, what user are you using to login to sftp? find out what directory youre in when youre logged in and attempt to create a file | 07:01 |
| actionparsnip | Lilzeus-web: do you mean a dns resolution so outsiders can access your site? | 07:01 |

GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist | 07:11 |

| tucemiux | MaRLBoRo, it is possible to do what you are trying to do but it requires a little bit of effort, first of all your iPhone needs to be jailbroken then you can use it and configure it to use with ubuntu, apparently you can also use your iPhone as a modem on your laptop, you can access the internet on your laptop using your iPhone--tethering | 07:19 |

| seank | deepheat: does web browsing work on them connected to this same network? | 07:25 |

| deepheat | it doesnt work on 9.10 | 07:26 |
| mmaksimov_ | narretgrez: type Ctrl+W, then search for "multiverse" | 07:26 |

| mattias|farm | hi there people. if possible I'd like some pointers on the proper way to preform the following : Im currently running debian + vista and using grub as bootmanager. What I'd like to do atm is remove the debian partitions, but I guess the grub config and so on is stored on the debian partition (Im not sure where its stored really). Which would be the proper way to remove grub ? Reason I wanna remove is because I wanna install ubuntu afterw | 07:31 |

| nytek_ | deepheat: have you havent updated it since you installed? | 07:34 |
| deepheat | that would be impossible | 07:34 |
| tucemiux | mattias|farm, then you shouldnt have a problem, you can use a gparted cd or ubuntu installation CD to boot into gparted and erase debian's partitions. You can also just use windows CD and fix the master boot record if you only want to use windows but you will have to use gparted or partition magic if you want to use the free space in windows | 07:34 |
| deepheat | because it wont connect to the update server | 07:35 |

| deepheat | it says 'trying 1.0.0.0....' | 07:37 |
| deepheat | i entered that command but nothing happens | 07:37 |
| tucemiux | edomeda, if you really want the newer version just compile the source code yourself | 07:37 |
| seank | deepheat: well you telneted to google.com earlier... | 07:38 |
| deepheat | yeah i closed the terminal since then, do i need to run that fix again? | 07:38 |
| mattias|farm | tucemiux : yeah I plan to use the free space from the partitions currently used by debian for ubuntu. basicly just clean the partions so I dont have any crap laying around (without causing grub going haywire). Is gparted a part of the basic ubuntu install or should I look into this before attempting to remove the partitions? | 07:38 |
| deepheat | what was it | 07:38 |
| seank | deepheat: type ifconfig eth0 | grep inet\ addr: | 07:39 |
| seank | deepheat: and copy/paste the output in here | 07:39 |
| deepheat | there is no output | 07:39 |
| seank | deepheat: grand. what about just ifconfig eth0 ? | 07:40 |
| deepheat | do you want me to do that on the laptop? | 07:40 |
| seank | deepheat: on the machine with the problem | 07:40 |
| edomeda | tucemiux, nah, too many deps to get install all the dev stuff on ubuntu. Spend an hour installing all the missing lib-dev versions. | 07:40 |
| gigasoft | power is nothing without control | 07:40 |
| tucemiux | mattias|farm, the thing about gparted that you have to remember is: do not use any mounted partition! You should really use a live CD or ubuntu installation CD unless you know what youre doing | 07:40 |
| mattias|farm | tucemiux : ah, it should be possible to use ubunto to add grub again with a fresh config after removing the partions. big thanks for the support =) Ill get right on it | 07:40 |

| === Dominoman is now known as Dominian | ||

| guntbert | candy: you can leave #ubuntu open and just join any other channel by typing /join #otherchannel | 08:27 |
| linkiduu | what is difference between aptitude and apt-get ? | 08:27 |
| rumpsy | candy: use this command, /list, this will list you channel list | 08:27 |
| iceroot | linkiduu: debian developers say that aptitude can handle dependencies better | 08:27 |
| candy | guntbert, ok | 08:28 |
| candy | rumpsy, ok | 08:28 |
| guntbert | candy: rumpsy: /list is not too good on this network - use /msg alis help list instead | 08:29 |
| iceroot | linkiduu: (from debian) aptitude has more advanced conflict/dependency resolution and will often be able to come up with a solution where apt-get just gives up. It has advanced search capabilities (see <aptitude search>). Like apt-get, it can also remove or purge one package at the same time as installing others all from the command line or at the Y/n/q/? prompt us | 08:29 |
| candy | guntbert, i see | 08:29 |
| superbee | Ahem, bsd ports | 08:30 |
| rumpsy | candy: use this, instea, /msg alis help list | 08:30 |
| infid | heh | 08:30 |
| rumpsy | candy: use this, instead, /msg alis help list | 08:30 |
| candy | rumpsy, ok | 08:30 |
| cycrosism | Why is freenode muted | 08:31 |

| z3rongod | Will i have any significant gains in performance? | 08:59 |
| z3rongod | I mean less CPU and RAM usage? | 08:59 |

| ruien | I am new to the "Upstart" boot system introduced in Ubuntu. I need to get SSHd running at boot on a machine that I have root access to right now. A fresh xubuntu 9.10 has been installed, and I believe that it includes an SSH daemon. If so, does anyone know how to schedule it to activate on boot? | 09:28 |
| linkiduu | I use ubuntu 9.10 | 09:28 |
| iceroot | ruien: sudo apt-get install openssh-server that is all, its starting automaticly at boot after installation | 09:29 |
| iflema | linkiduu grub = /boot/grub/menu.lst edit and reboot | 09:29 |
| linkiduu | ok | 09:29 |
| linkiduu | thanks | 09:29 |
| nixjr | the readme for my hardware says "install the driver into the kernel loadable modules directory for IrDA (.../kernel/drivers/net/irda)" there are many supplied files, which is "driver"? | 09:29 |
| chad__ | Another quick question maybe someone can help, it's with reguards to an external harddrive? It seems to be having a lot of problems and doesn't want to format, is there a particular way I can diagnose why it won't or a way I can force it to format? | 09:30 |

| faileas | lilzeus-web: probably /var/www/??? | 09:36 |

| faileas | lilzeus-web: seriously, its probably gonna be easier to download the latest phpbb, untar it appropriately, fix permissions... | 09:39 |
| faileas | zetheroo1: yes. | 09:39 |

| faileas | zetheroo1: server change wierdness i suppose | 09:43 |
| m13e37 | livingdaylight, it means your fan is broken and ure gettin too high temp | 09:43 |
| m13e37 | so you have to change ur fan in your laptop | 09:43 |
| seank | livingdaylight: fan error... well, sounds to me like one of your fans are broken... the bios usually detects that and some will not boot unless the fan is replaced.. | 09:43 |

| faileas | its way easier | 09:44 |
| livingdaylight | seank, thank you | 09:44 |

| nexus_ | Hello what is the best way to install ubuntu... Should I make a separate partition just for the os's files and then a separate partition to keep my stuff? | 09:45 |
| faileas | i haven't needed to use it a while | 09:46 |
| m13e37 | nexus_, just make sep part and install it therwe | 09:46 |
| Moon | aiuto | 09:46 |
| m13e37 | there* | 09:46 |
| faileas | nexus_: the 'default' is one big partition + swap. it'll do unless you reformat often | 09:46 |
| m13e37 | for new users I would recommend to keep windows | 09:46 |
| m13e37 | cuz if linux fuck up then you can seek help on google on windows | 09:47 |
| faileas | eh | 09:47 |
| m13e37 | <like I did> | 09:47 |

| Dr_Willis | isent there a 'memo server' service? i forget its nick,. or its down right now | 09:49 |
| faileas | nexus_: while setting up, use the manual partitioning option | 09:49 |
| politas | nexus: The "reformat every year" is really sub-optimal with Linux. Upgrading in place is much better | 09:49 |
| faileas | you'll need 3 partitions / /home and one for swap. set the mount pounts as such, and thats pritty much it | 09:49 |

| meowkbuntu | hey i just installed 7zip i cant run it whats rong | 10:10 |
| iceroot | meowkbuntu: what does "cant run it" mean? | 10:11 |
| nexus_ | Do you guys know if it's posibble to put sabayon's default theme on ubuntu? | 10:11 |
| Nachturnal | seank, that's like saying "why would you avoid touching a hot stove just because someone else taught you it will hurt". some opinions have value. | 10:11 |
| vatts | at last | 10:12 |
| vatts | connection established | 10:12 |
| vatts | and ubuntu.freeze(4s) | 10:12 |
| nexus_ | Thanks Nachturnal | 10:12 |
| seank | Nachturnal: uhm... are you serious? | 10:12 |
| meowkbuntu | iceroot: idk what do you think. | 10:12 |
| meowkbuntu | cant run means cant run | 10:13 |
| iceroot | meowkbuntu: usefull detailed so we can help you, i dont like guessing | 10:13 |
| Nachturnal | Yes. If we don't take other peoples' opinions into account, we're going to waste our time trying EVERYTHING out there. | 10:13 |
| seank | Nachturnal: we're referring to desktop environments... not hot stoves.. are you retarded? | 10:13 |
| seank | Nachturnal: its all about opinion... entirely subjective. just shut up. | 10:13 |
| ericson | I have a quick question about 9.10 64bit and wireless cards.... Most of the time the card works and connects (such as now) However, on the same laptop as this one, sitting right next to me running 9.10 64bit, it wont connect. Is there a known problem with the network manager? | 10:13 |
| Mogue | Anyone, guys? The modes in my xorg.conf are not showing up in the Nvidia Server Settings... What should I do? | 10:13 |
| iceroot | seank: stop that | 10:14 |

| Nachturnal | It's a simple human function. Listening to peoples' opinions allows us to function more productively. Do you suggest he try every desktop environment in existence? | 10:14 |
| meowkbuntu | iceroot: cant=wont,=will not=does not etc | 10:14 |
| iceroot | meowkbuntu: erros-message and so on | 10:14 |
| nexus_ | Ok so I have a question about apps... If I make a 10 gb partition for ubuntu... Do the applications I install get installed to that partition too? | 10:14 |
| kinja-sheep | nexus_: Yes. | 10:14 |
| tremmons | /nick iflema | 10:15 |
| meowkbuntu | iceroot: i installed p7zip-full. i cant find it in kmenu adn i cant run it in cli | 10:15 |
| ericson | nexus_, I used to run ubuntu in a 30gig partition, and it never got close to filling up. Granted, I kept all of my music and movies on an external drive so it was easier to swap between windows and linux | 10:15 |
| meowkbuntu | ice no errors | 10:15 |
| nexus_ | So what's a smart sized partition so that all upgrades and only a few apps can be installed | 10:15 |
| seank | Nachturnal: whatever... he's asking about gnome and kde. out of the 1166 users in here, maybe 3 or 4 will respond with their own opinions... what *value* is that? how much *more* value will it be to just use them for yourself and figure out which *you* prefer. | 10:16 |
| iceroot | meowkbuntu: its not an extra program, just right click on the file you want to extract and choose extract | 10:16 |
| ericson | nexus_, I would say a 10gig is enough room | 10:16 |
| meowkbuntu | iceroot: no errors. i have been using irc for awhile i know how it works. i gave you what i had | 10:16 |
| === tremmons is now known as iflema | ||
| m13e37 | k this is not good | 10:16 |
| nexus_ | ericson: Ok cool that's the type of info I wanted to hear | 10:16 |
| iceroot | meowkbuntu: and that was nothing, sorry | 10:16 |
| meowkbuntu | iceroot: 7zip has a graphicle interface. | 10:17 |
| shazbotmcnasty | meowkbuntu, no it doesn't | 10:17 |
| m13e37 | If I'm runnig ubuntu for more than 12h+ my RAM is gettin used in 100% just by FF tuned on... what's going on? | 10:17 |
| m13e37 | turned* | 10:17 |
| Nachturnal | seank, Then I recommend you use sound logic when providing a reason for the action you recommend to others. While KDE and Gnome may both be worth trying, your provided reasoning is absurd. | 10:17 |
| meowkbuntu | um i can run it in wine adn it does | 10:17 |
| ericson | nexus_, I'm on a 100gig partition, just because I had the room for the partition, but my other buddy was running in a 20gig, also with more than enough room. | 10:17 |
| shazbotmcnasty | ARRGGHHHH I don't want to deal with you twice today meowkbuntu | 10:17 |
| iceroot | meowkbuntu: windows-program != linux-program | 10:17 |
| seank | Nachturnal: uhh what? you can install both easily. give them both a shot and see which you prefer. how is that "absurd" | 10:18 |
| knoppies | m13e37, FF does seem to have a memory leak or something. I would just close, and then re-open FF and see if that helps. | 10:18 |
| meowkbuntu | if teh windows version of 7zip is graphicle then the linus one is | 10:18 |
| meowkbuntu | just like other apps | 10:18 |
| iceroot | meowkbuntu: no | 10:18 |
| nexus_ | Seank just let it go... I see what you mean and I will try them out myself... I am not going to base my decision completly on sow | 10:18 |
| zztop__ | which irc app should i use in gnome? | 10:18 |
| knoppies | meowkbuntu, that is not always true. | 10:18 |
| shazbotmcnasty | meowkbuntu, I love how you think you're right. | 10:18 |
| iceroot | meowkbuntu: as i told you, just choose extract on the file | 10:18 |
| meowkbuntu | ok thanks | 10:18 |
| nexus_ | ... Completely on someone elses opinon | 10:18 |
| kinja-sheep | zztop__: Any IRC apps will work regardless of desktop environment. | 10:18 |
| coz_ | zztop__, I personally prefer xchat | 10:18 |
| meowkbuntu | shazbotmcnasty: then dont reply to my questions | 10:18 |
| zztop__ | i like mirc in windows | 10:18 |
| * knoppies also prefers xchat (in gnome) | 10:18 | |
| iceroot | zztop__: try xchat | 10:19 |
| m13e37 | knoppies, it didn't helped I just got 100mb ram free... | 10:19 |
| nexus_ | Ok thanks everyone im gonna go now | 10:19 |
| m13e37 | oh and xchat and deluge are on only | 10:19 |
| knoppies | zztop__, have you tried mirc using wine? or something simialr. | 10:19 |
| ericson | anyone got a lot of knowledge of wireless cards and network manager? | 10:19 |
| meowkbuntu | i prefer a graphicle interface. is there a linux zip app like that | 10:19 |
| knoppies | m13e37, ok, then you need to see what is using all your ram. | 10:19 |
| shazbotmcnasty | meowkbuntu, then once again: stop being so rude about your questions | 10:19 |
| seank | Nachturnal: .....come on, whys my reasoning "absurd" | 10:19 |
| meowkbuntu | i was sure there was a frount end for 7zip | 10:20 |
| coz_ | zztop__, let me take a look at mirc screenshots to see what might be similar | 10:20 |
| iceroot | meowkbuntu: the one which comes with ubuntu | 10:20 |
| Nachturnal | seank, check your PM. We need not flood the channel with argument. | 10:20 |
| meowkbuntu | shazbotmcnasty: is on ignore | 10:20 |
| meowkbuntu | iceroot: called | 10:20 |
| coz_ | zztop, I would definitly suggest xchat...it looks quite similar | 10:21 |
| shazbotmcnasty | meowkbuntu, that I really do not mind | 10:21 |

| iceroot | exaby1e: start it from the cli and paste the error | 10:26 |
| raven | ardchoille, until now it's working that way | 10:26 |
| Dr_Willis | candy its trival to changhe.. you just got to find the right menu item. | 10:26 |
| devD_ | after playing a supertux game all of my panel icon got messed up ? how to solve this. | 10:26 |
| nibbler_ | meowkbuntu, bzip2 (tar cjf for eg) | 10:26 |
| ardchoille | meowkbuntu: .rar ? | 10:26 |
| coz_ | knoppies, ok , did it give you any warning that ubuntu is running in low graphics mode? | 10:27 |
| raven | ardchoille, have to wait a litte bit to tell about the success | 10:27 |
| exaby1e | i've tried that, but i don't get any output | 10:27 |
| candy | Dr_Willis, ok let me try | 10:27 |
| iceroot | exaby1e: is there a debug-modus? eclipse --help | 10:27 |
| knoppies | coz_, it might have, dont remember. It wouldnt allow me to enable compiz, and it wouldnt allow me to increase the resolution above 800x600 | 10:27 |
| meowkbuntu | nibbler_: and ardchoille disagree | 10:27 |
| exaby1e | i even redownloaded eclipse, but i did'nt help | 10:27 |
| iceroot | exaby1e: why not using the repo-version? sudo apt-get install eclipse | 10:28 |
| obiwan_ | ey guys, i got a question: when i set root (hd0,5) in grub, it says : filesystem is ext2. But it's ext4. Does anybody have the same problem? i've seen it reported on the net but didn't found any explanation | 10:28 |
| coz_ | knoppies, so you can get onto the Desktop? | 10:28 |
| nibbler_ | meowkbuntu, well, rar is not really free, and bzip is way more modern, and its the linux standard (besides gnuzip, which is older and not as compact) | 10:28 |
| Dr_Willis | obiwan_: they are backwards comnpatiable.. so to grub they are the same. | 10:28 |
| knoppies | coz_, its a rather new install, the only thing I had set up was x11vnc and apache. I could always reformat. was hoping there was a way to revert to the standard drivers. | 10:28 |
| knoppies | coz_, not anymore, not since I restarted it. | 10:28 |
| nibbler_ | meowkbuntu, i'd say in this case he is wrong, but his "?" suggests its just an idea :p | 10:28 |
| ardchoille | meowkbuntu: nibbler_ has a point there | 10:28 |
| Dr_Willis | obiwan_: at least thats my guess. :) | 10:28 |
| exaby1e | it doesn't matter what arguments i enter, nothing happens | 10:28 |
| coz_ | knoppies, ok is this gnome you have as a DE? | 10:29 |
| ribot | hi | 10:29 |
| cyberebel | can someone help with usb joypad please? | 10:29 |
| obiwan_ | ok Dr_Willis hehe thanks . i'm having troubles loading a distro and i thought that may be the problem. i'll keep trying | 10:29 |
| meowkbuntu | i remember now bzip2 i cant do bzip when rightclicking the file | 10:29 |
| Dr_Willis | cyberebel: plug it in and use it? clarify to the channel what its not doing | 10:29 |
| nibbler_ | meowkbuntu, look for downloading sourcepackages on sourceforge eg and see what you find they use as a format :p | 10:29 |
| ribot | im having problem with searching files in subfolders: grep -r doesn't go any deeper than one subfolder to search | 10:29 |
| knoppies | coz_, not sure what DE stands for, but yes Im using gnome. | 10:29 |
| meowkbuntu | nibbler_: how do i do that | 10:29 |
| coz_ | knoppies, in that text console type /etc/init.d/gdm restart or if that doesnt work service gdm restart | 10:29 |
| Dr_Willis | obiwan_: i think if ya look at 'fdisk' /partion types.. ext2/3/4 are the same type. just different format commands to make the fs. | 10:29 |
| coz_ | knoppies, DE stands for Desktop Environment :) | 10:29 |
| cyberebel | i pluged it in but its not doing anything | 10:29 |
| knoppies | coz_, thanks, will let you know how it goes. | 10:29 |
| politas | So, anyone knowledgeable in palm treo syncing under karmic? | 10:30 |
| nibbler_ | meowkbuntu, just rightclick, chose compress, chose tar.bz2 as format | 10:30 |
| coz_ | knoppies, well I just want to see if it does go into gdm | 10:30 |
| Dr_Willis | cyberebel: and how are you testing this? Plug it in - chedk dmesg command output... what else have ya tried | 10:30 |
| knoppies | coz_, claims its not found. | 10:30 |
| iceroot | meowkbuntu: bz2 in the menu | 10:30 |
| nibbler_ | meowkbuntu, by the way, tar.gz would be *the* standard format, which you can unpack on practically *any* unix out there, bzip2 needs a bit more modern systems | 10:30 |
| coz_ | knoppies, if not restart and I belive there is a low graphics mode option in the boot mentu hit esc or shift I believe to see the menu if this is not a dual boot | 10:31 |
| politas | I had my treo all set up and syncing perfectly under Intrepid. Then I upgraded to Karmic, and now nothing works from all the instructions I can find. | 10:31 |
| knoppies | coz_, not a duel boot. when do I hit esc or shift? | 10:31 |
| coz_ | knoppies, just as you reboot I believe it should bring up the menu | 10:31 |
| cyberebel | Dr Willis (chedk) is that a comand in the terminal? | 10:31 |
| Dr_Willis | cyberebel: plug it in.. run 'dmesg' look at output at bottom | 10:32 |
| obiwan_ | Dr_Willis: fdisk won't show kind of partition | 10:32 |
| cWe_cRi | uh.... | 10:32 |
| cyberebel | ok | 10:32 |
| Dr_Willis | obiwan_: sudo fdisk -l - dont forget the sudo :) | 10:32 |
| obiwan_ | Dr_Willis: blkid shows it, but it says ext4 :P but it's np | 10:32 |
| obiwan_ | yeah sudo fdisk -l won't show Dr_Willis | 10:32 |
| knoppies | coz_, it brings up a menu with the items: Ubuntu-linux-2.6.31-17- generic | 10:32 |
| ribot | im having problem with searching files in subfolders: grep -r doesn't go any deeper than one subfolder to search | 10:32 |
| obiwan_ | Dr_Willis: but np , i guess that's not the problem | 10:32 |
| coz_ | knoppies, but no option for safe graphics mode? | 10:33 |
| knoppies | coz_, and a recovery mode, and 2.6.31-14 and its recovery mode, no safe graphics mode. | 10:33 |
| coz_ | knoppies, ok let it move forward choose the top most item on the menu | 10:33 |
| knoppies | coz_, I have, and then it goes to where I initially stated my problem. | 10:33 |
| coz_ | knoppies, ok now in that console type nvidia-xconfig | 10:34 |
| coz_ | knoppies, restart the system and tell me if it boots | 10:34 |
| cyberebel | Dr_Willis i dont see anything about joypad | 10:34 |
| raven | ardchoille, ok seems that every file is ignored - but no folders and a few files | 10:35 |
| knoppies | coz_, nvidia-xconfig not found. | 10:35 |
| Dr_Willis | cyberebel: the ones i got = when i plug them in they mention some /dev/input/js0 or similer.. and i just use them in zsnes fine. No special tweaking needed | 10:35 |
| coz_ | knoppies, ok now type lspci | grep -i vga | 10:35 |
| nixjr | how do i "make" something? | 10:36 |
| knoppies | coz_, this is a busybox terminal and seems to have very few commands, should i try boot it into command line (from the boot menu)? | 10:36 |
| coz_ | knoppies, sure | 10:36 |
| iceroot | i want ssh to another pc, passwd is stored in ldap and shell is set to zsh, but on the server i want to connect to there is no zsh installed. is there a syntax for passwd to set a fallback-shell? | 10:36 |
| nexus_ | Anyone know how to get to the Linux mint irc room? | 10:37 |
| Dr_Willis | iceroot: i recall some way to ssh in and run a command.. but never tried it. | 10:37 |
| cyberebel | im kinda new to computers sorry i dont no what that means | 10:37 |
| iceroot | Dr_Willis: without a login-shell? | 10:37 |
| iceroot | Dr_Willis: or better, without the installed login-shell? | 10:37 |
| Dr_Willis | iceroot: yea. i seem to recall that in some ssh books/docs/tricks | 10:38 |
| coz_ | nexus_, I am not seeing a linux mint channel did you check on their wiki? | 10:38 |
| ribot | im having problem with searching files in subfolders: grep -r doesn't go any deeper than one subfolder to search | 10:38 |
| knoppies | coz_, takes me to the same shell. | 10:38 |
| coz_ | knoppies, ok type lspci | grep -i vga | 10:38 |
| nexus_ | No but I have been there before and I don't remember how I got there lol | 10:38 |
| iceroot | Dr_Willis: ok, i will do some searching on it | 10:38 |
| knoppies | coz_, not found | 10:38 |
| exaby1e | i tried to install eclipse from the repo, but still, it wont start | 10:39 |
| exaby1e | no output | 10:39 |
| Jenk | faileas, n e ideas ? | 10:39 |
| coz_ | knoppies, mmm try sudo apt-cache search nvidia-glx | 10:39 |
| knoppies | coz_, sudo not found. | 10:39 |
| Dr_Willis | iceroot: man ssh says -> If command is specified, it is executed on the remote host instead of a login shell. | 10:39 |
| tarvid | Is there any fix for Flash and swf? | 10:39 |
| coz_ | knoppies, do it without sudo | 10:39 |
| Dr_Willis | iceroot: ssh bill@whever bash | 10:40 |
| Dr_Willis | perhaps :) | 10:40 |
| ardchoille | !flash | tarvid | 10:40 |
| ubottu | tarvid: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 10:40 |
| iceroot | Dr_Willis: yes, that sounds good | 10:40 |
| knoppies | coz_, Im starting to think that a complete reformat might be my easiest option. I got /home on a seperate partition (although, not sure how to set that up while installing the new OS) | 10:40 |
| Dr_Willis | ssh willis@server df -h | 10:40 |
| tarvid | Flash is installed but hangs on some websites | 10:40 |
| airtonix | ribot, investigate the use of "find" | 10:40 |
| Dr_Willis | :) | 10:40 |
| coz_ | knoppies, mm ok I may not be the best person for that configuration... | 10:40 |
| mimor | for the people who're comming to FOSDEM next weekend: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Fosdem/2010 | 10:41 |
| Jenk | hey, can an UDF disc be read on Ubuntu ? | 10:41 |
| knoppies | coz_, ok, thanks for your help. It seems as though the recovery console doesnt support enough commands. | 10:41 |
| Dr_Willis | iceroot: bash might not work right it seems.. you might need to change the shell that way however | 10:41 |
| nixjr | when i type "make" is says make: *** No rule to make target `/usr/src/linux-2.6/include/linux/irda.h', needed by `irda-usb.o'. Stop. | 10:41 |

| exaby1e | any ideas on the eclipse problem? | 10:41 |
| iceroot | Dr_Willis: yes, of course | 10:41 |
| Dr_Willis | iceroot: heh - it does SORT of work. I get a bash shell.. but no prompt | 10:41 |
| coz_ | knoppies, ok talk with someone here about your home dirctory and setting up the system | 10:41 |
| Dr_Willis | iceroot: so its a little weird | 10:41 |
| knoppies | kinja-sheep, I dont understand. | 10:41 |
| knoppies | coz_, yea I will, thanks | 10:42 |
| iceroot | Dr_Willis: same here | 10:42 |
| knoppies | kinja-sheep, I have 3 partitions on the disk, one for / one for /home and one for swap. | 10:42 |
| knoppies | kinja-sheep, if I want to reformat and reinstall ubuntu on / how do I tell the installer to use the other partition for /home? | 10:42 |
| Dr_Willis | iceroot: ssh willis@server mc --> dont work right either. :) guess its for simple commands/non interative stuff mainly | 10:42 |
| coz_ | Jenk, not sure read this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224983 | 10:42 |
| coz_ | knoppies, sorry I couldnt be more helpful | 10:43 |
| iceroot | Dr_Willis: yes, its like rsh | 10:43 |
| knoppies | coz_, no problem, thanks anyway. | 10:43 |
| === papul_ is now known as papul | ||
| iceroot | Dr_Willis: so maybe its not a good idea to have zsh in passwd on a ldap-based passwd :) | 10:43 |
| kinja-sheep | knoppies: You don't reformat everything on the HDD. You reformat the / since the partitions are already created. Meh, you will have to use LiveCD and get the idea. | 10:44 |
| cyberebel | Dr_Willis thanks for the help anyway :) | 10:44 |
| kinja-sheep | knoppies: When you pop in the disc, you should see the existing partitions. From there, you work with it. When it comes to home partition, point it to the correct partition (and path). | 10:44 |

| candy | which file system ll be better to select to install ubuntu 9.10 in desktop?? | 10:47 |
| candy | ext3 or 4?? | 10:47 |
| Jenk | coz_, i've gone thru bug reports, trolled google, but no help.. i get dis error, invalid mount option when attempting to mount 'UDF Volume'. | 10:47 |
| airtonix | Jenk, also worth noting : windows cd/dvd creator via explorer does not create standard UDF discs. | 10:47 |
| coz_ | Jenk, that last link from airtonix seems to be something to read | 10:47 |
| knoppies | candy, ext3 is more stable. but Im not sure myself. | 10:47 |
| knoppies | candy, I used ext4, seemed fine. But now my ubuntu wont boot after I installed graphics drivers, but I think that is something else entirely, and not related to the format. | 10:48 |
| Jenk | airtonix, i've gone thru dat, changed the order of options... it doesn't work. | 10:48 |
| candy | knoppies, i m doing ext3 | 10:48 |
| knoppies | candy, Im gonna use ext3 on my reformat as well. | 10:49 |

| quietone | how do I set up a mail server, for home network? I've got no experience and reading postfix and dovecot has not helped me. I can send/rcv to my self, but want to change the domain. | 10:53 |
| airtonix | Jenk, don't confuse my suggestions of urls to visit as a sign that I have any idea of the deeper workings with regards to UDF on linux. You didn't mention that you'd already investigated certain pathways so I took the liberty of providing the basics of google for you | 10:53 |
| papul | is ircii a dead project? | 10:53 |
| silverraindog | quietone: check in /etc/postfix/main.cf | 10:54 |
| llutz | quietone: read at postfix.org | 10:54 |
| quietone | silverraindog: and llutz: I have done both and it isn't working for me. | 10:54 |
| quietone | I mean that reading it isn't helping me to understand or to make the changes I want. | 10:54 |
| llutz | quietone: then ask at #postfix, maybe give some more details than" does not work" | 10:54 |
| quietone | tried #postfix. how can I change the domain name? | 10:55 |
| smvrglc | anyone knows the _best_ method to install on a encrypted root partition? how about the boot partition, can that be encrypted too? | 10:56 |
| llutz | quietone:see postfix address rewriting at postfix.org | 10:56 |
| silverraindog | quietone: in main.cf there is something called myhostname | 10:57 |

| hamzaatova2 | how can i record something from the sound card easily?????? will it be better idea to do it on windows on another computer????? | 10:57 |
| airtonix | Jenk, just a wild shot... have you bothered to try using nero for linux to read the udf disc? | 10:58 |
| llutz | quietone: the thing is, running a mailserver is a very complex job. you have to read and more important, to understand what you're doing | 10:58 |
| Dr_Willis | I just plug in to the sound in and use th record tool.. but last i did that was.. proberly 2 yrs ago :) | 10:58 |

| Leoneof | just wanted to tell | 10:59 |
| llutz | quietone: we don't need more spam-relays on the net, driven by unexperienced admins | 10:59 |
| hamzaatova2 | smvrglc, but how do i record from the soundcard and from myspace???? | 10:59 |

| hamzaatova2 | Dr_Willis, let say ive installed it-- how to use it????? | 11:00 |
| quietone | llutz: have I done something wrong? what is a spam-relay? | 11:00 |
| Jenk | airtonix, no hav neva heard dat der was a nero 4 linux bt s u say, i'll giv it a shot... | 11:01 |
| silverraindog | quietone: look for a web gui for postfix | 11:01 |
| Callum_ | airtonix: Brasero will do the same job and it is installed by default... | 11:01 |
| airtonix | Jenk, btw i find your mangling of the english language to be offensive | 11:01 |

| kinja-sheep | zilkomaa: You can unzip it in ~/.themes | 11:04 |
| Dr_Willis | zilkomaa: you could just go to the appeaances tool and drag/drop it on the tool to install it to the users themes directory | 11:04 |
| coz_ | zilkomaa, could you link me to the theme | 11:04 |
| airtonix | Jenk, that was my last idea : use nero for linux. all out of ideas | 11:04 |

| hamzaatova2 | why does he says about with us??????? “Memory is the diary that we all carry about with us” | 11:15 |
| coz_ | zilkomaa, right now in that unzipped folder there is a folder named dark linux right? | 11:15 |
| zilkomaa | coz_: yes Dark-linux 0.5 | 11:16 |
| firefly2 | techtronic, I looked there the line says wep and it doesn't connect to the router | 11:16 |
| coz_ | zilkomaa, ok right click that folder and choose "Compress" | 11:16 |
| Dr_Willis | ardchoille: in the 'full themes' tab it has stuff it can download.. but its not listing everything at gnome-look - which is good in ways. :) | 11:16 |
| airtonix | hamzaatova2, despite my personal opinion on the use of the english language and grammer this is not the channel for discussion of its use | 11:16 |
| coz_ | zilkomaa, tell me when that is done | 11:16 |
| zilkomaa | coz_: ok, window appears | 11:16 |
| zilkomaa | coz_: to gzip the folder or something? | 11:17 |
| coz_ | zilkomaa, tar.gz that folder yes | 11:17 |
| zilkomaa | coz_: k.. | 11:17 |
| hamzaatova2 | airtonix, it was for another channel | 11:17 |
| coz_ | zilkomaa, then you should get a dark linux .tar.gz | 11:17 |
| airtonix | hamzaatova2, although I admire your desire to understand various pecularities in the english language | 11:17 |
| zilkomaa | coz_: yes its done now.. | 11:18 |

| ardchoille | Dr_Willis: This is quite nice | 11:18 |
| coz_ | zilkomaa, it should install and ask if you want to apply the new theme | 11:19 |

| * soreau double clicks on coz_ | 11:22 | |
| balsaq | how come each new ubuntu release is pretty much the same? is it because the desktop it uses? | 11:23 |

| zilkomaa | coz_: ok ill try restart brb! | 11:23 |
| kinja-sheep | balsaq: Same how? | 11:23 |
| dr_bro | in grub boot loader i can't get into windows, it just restarts the computer. how can i fix it? | 11:23 |
| Dr_Willis | zilkomaa: thats what peole dont realize ; a theme is made of 'parts' not all themes are actually a full theme. :) | 11:23 |
| balsaq | kinja-sheep, looks pretty much the same, almost no difference | 11:24 |
| iflema | balsaq and it goes on a cdrom... install stuff | 11:24 |
| soreau | balsaq: Ubuntu officially uses gnome as the default Desktop Environment. There are other options however, such as xfce, kde and lxde | 11:24 |
| zilkomaa | Dr_Willis: yea..i noticed when i unzipped that theme file | 11:24 |
| balsaq | i use xfce | 11:24 |
| soreau | balsaq: Do you use xubuntu? | 11:24 |

| menashe | balsaq, actually there is a better solution - I have configured the power manager to simply make a blank screen upon closing the lid, so I simply move the mouse and continue working. | 11:45 |
| kinja-sheep | papul: There are over million sites and tutorials. What are you looking for in particular? | 11:46 |
| coz_ | ubunt, mm I am puzzled also ,,, i am going to suggest going to #alsa channel and hang out there to see if someone has better ideas about this one....out of curiosity...why did you uninstal this in the first place? :) | 11:46 |
| medionpal | kinja-sheep: mozilla has its own repositories? | 11:46 |

| winterweaver | Snowy09 you can via Wine... but a simpler option is to install PlayonLinux | 13:47 |
| Bodsda | swapy: you will need to learn how to configure conky to display that info, then you will need to find out if you can launch applications from conky. This requires effort from you as well | 13:48 |

| winterweaver | jrib, i am aware, but this is for a sandbox install | 13:48 |

| swapy | i want dock on right side | 13:49 |

| mmvv | winterweaver you probably need the -dev packages such as tcl8.3-dev and so on | 13:49 |
| jrib | winterweaver: I don't see why that matters, but if you insist, what faileas said will give you the dependencies for the package in the repositories which are likely to be similar for what you are doing | 13:49 |

| arand | !grub2 | casinaroyale | 13:59 |
| ubottu | casinaroyale: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 13:59 |
| casinaroyale | arand: 9.10 is karmic right? | 13:59 |
| kemmotar | casinaroyale: 9.10 use another version of grub. see here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Recover%20Grub%202%20via%20LiveCD | 13:59 |

| cAs | anyone from Madrid? | 13:59 |
| swapy | Bodsda, yes i know that system monitor does it still i want to view it via nautilus | 13:59 |
| Guest40915 | Hi To all.. Does anyone have a moment to discuss sharing files with Windows Network.. | 13:59 |
| arand | casinaroyale: yes. ^ Above link details how to recover grub2 after windows overwriting the mbr, should work in your case. | 13:59 |
| louise | weird. I have two ubuntu machines, same repos enabled. In one of them I can't find zsnes emulator package for installation | 14:00 |
| jrib | Guest40915: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line) | 14:00 |
| Guest40915 | I can get the network open | 14:00 |
| candy | i downloaded skype from wget.. but i dint find it in application>internet>... where should i look for? | 14:00 |
| Bodsda | swapy: nautilus is a file browser, system monitor will monitor the system. Why try to use a tool for something that it wasnt designed for - there may be a way to do it, but if you have system monitor whats the problem? | 14:00 |
| jrib | louise: same arch? | 14:00 |
| jrib | candy: current working directory | 14:00 |
| jrib | !skype | candy | 14:00 |
| ubottu | candy: To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto - Please use open protocols instead if you can, see !Ekiga | 14:00 |
| xtjacob | psycho_oreos: ok here's the output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/365699/ | 14:00 |
| louise | jrib: hmmm... that might be it. the missing package happens in amd64 | 14:00 |
| louise | debian squeeze amd64 has it though | 14:01 |
| Bodsda | louise: these are the same version of ubuntu yes? | 14:01 |
| candy | jrib, its not there | 14:01 |
| louise | Bodsda: yes | 14:01 |
| jrib | louise: that's why. You can verify at packages.ubuntu.com | 14:01 |
| jrib | candy: read ubottu's link | 14:01 |
| psycho_oreos | xtjacob, hmm doesn't really help much, umm so there's a disk in that burner drive? | 14:01 |
| Guest40915 | I can get the network open | 14:02 |
| Guest40915 | I can see the name of the target computer | 14:02 |
| Guest40915 | but I can't get the target open | 14:02 |
| Guest40915 | the firewall is down on both | 14:02 |
| Guest40915 | any idea what I need to do ? | 14:02 |
| FloodBot3 | Guest40915: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 14:02 |
| Guest40915 | the error message is "Unable to Mount Location - failed to retrieve share list from server" | 14:02 |
| xtjacob | psycho_oreos: yes, but the disk isn't being mounted | 14:02 |
| psycho_oreos | xtjacob, and if you put that same disc in the other drive there's no new entries in dmesg? | 14:02 |
| candy | jrib, ok | 14:02 |
| candy | ubottu, thanks | 14:03 |
| ubottu | You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 14:03 |
| candy | ubottu, what do u mean by bot? | 14:04 |
| ubottu | I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 14:04 |
| xtjacob | psycho_oreos: there's no VFS stuff | 14:04 |
| jrib | candy: he's a program | 14:04 |
| Bodsda | candy: a bot is a computer program | 14:04 |
| mmvv | Bodsda if you go to about:plugins in firefox, do you have a plugin for .fla files? | 14:04 |
| psycho_oreos | xtjacob, hmm the burner drive may have dirty lens | 14:05 |
| candy | jrib, Bodsda, u mean he is not human? | 14:05 |
| jrib | candy: correct | 14:05 |

| === DrunkenIrony_ is now known as Drunken_Irony | ||
| psycho_oreos | xtjacob, you'll need to go out and buy a lens cleaner or head cleaner and hope that may help resolve the issue or if possible try updating the firmware of the drive | 14:05 |
| silv3r_m00n | mic doesnt work... why | 14:06 |

| candy | jrib, hmm ok | 14:06 |
| Bodsda | mmvv: no. But this browser will display the web page correctly from the one hosted by a company, but not on my local webserver - both webroots are the same so I am guessing its an apache issue | 14:06 |
| jrib | candy: "!skype | candy" made him give you the link about skype | 14:06 |
| mmvv | Bodsda do you use firebug? | 14:06 |
| psycho_oreos | xtjacob, nw | 14:07 |
| Bodsda | mmvv: I have it installed, yes | 14:07 |
| silv3r_m00n | its a hda intel sound card (onboard on intel dg35ec motherboard) sound works fine , but mic/recording is not working | 14:07 |
| candy | !skype | candy | 14:07 |
| ubottu | candy, please see my private message | 14:07 |
| JessD | silv3r_m00n: Is this a netbook? | 14:07 |
| candy | jrib, it works hehehe nice | 14:07 |
| mmvv | Bodsda you can watch the requests / responses between the company server and your browser and likewise between your own server and browser to ensure you're getting the expected files. | 14:08 |
| silv3r_m00n | a core2quad/3gb/500gb PC | 14:08 |
| silv3r_m00n | motherboard is intel dg35ec , and it has onboard sound card hda intel | 14:08 |
| mmvv | Bodsda unless the server is compiling files and serving up a swf I'm not sure what else could be different | 14:08 |
| JessD | silv3er_m00n: I have a similar sound device in an hp netbook, turns out to be a known issue that a backports install will fix, lemme find link | 14:08 |
| louise | quit | 14:08 |
| silv3r_m00n | what next ? | 14:09 |
| JessD | silv3r_m00n : see if this makes sense: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/376795/ | 14:10 |
| Bodsda | mmvv: i havent seen that console in firebug before, thank you very much - I see my local server is not sending all the files, or it cant find them - I think the issue is with an incomplete web root - again, thanks for your help | 14:11 |
| recmajkemi | jrib: what do i put under PACKAGE where to find info | 14:11 |
| mmvv | Bodsda no problem, firebug is incredibly useful | 14:12 |
| JessD | Anybody tried using Windows Unix Services to mount NFS shares? | 14:12 |
| Sheepherd_ | whats a good p2p client for ubuntu? | 14:12 |
| jrib | recmajkemi: the only package that was in that ppa. Check the webpage you linked me to | 14:12 |

| casinaroyale | arand: even my previous installation of ubuntu has grub 0.97 | 14:13 |
| cgroza | trigg: its very similar with utorrent , i love it | 14:14 |
| casinaroyale | and I am not able to get grub2 in synaptic even after update | 14:14 |
| cgroza | casinaroyale:can you boot all your OS? | 14:14 |
| trigg | cgroza: cool, I use utorrent on my windows box - i'll take a look | 14:14 |
| JessD | Does utorrent work under winde? | 14:15 |
| casinaroyale | cgroza: I can boot into my windows 7.. I used to boot into ubuntu before win7 installation | 14:15 |

| cgroza | casinaroyale:ooh, you can try to reinstall grub... there are a lot of tutorials out there... | 14:16 |

| linusoleander | I'm looking for some kind of watcher that can kill script/app if it has been running to long. | 14:17 |
| linusoleander | Like this: watcher -t 10 ./my_script | 14:17 |
| cgroza | trigg: you already looked at it? | 14:17 |
| silv3r_m00n | on ubuntu 9.10 mic is not working | 14:17 |
| JessD | Anyone know of an sshfs equivalent for Windows? Really tired of the CIFS instability problems on the Windos side of the equation... | 14:17 |
| silv3r_m00n | how to fix it ? | 14:17 |
| casinaroyale | cgroza: what is the difference between grub and grub-pc?\ | 14:18 |
| mmvv | linusoleander can you not add it into the script itself? | 14:18 |
| JessD | silv3r_m00n : Did you check to see if it's muted? Try opening the terminal and running 'alsamixer', then looking to see if anything labelled mike is muted? | 14:18 |
| linusoleander | mmvv: No I cant | 14:18 |
| datacrusher | can anyone help me isntall an usb 3g modem?got many errors http://pastebin.com/m36bfec4 | 14:19 |
| trigg | cgroza: i haven't seen it in a while so I didn't know how similar they were - ive just installed deluge now to see | 14:19 |
| silv3r_m00n | JessD: none are muted | 14:19 |
| mmvv | linusoleander ok then can you write a very short bash wrapper script that launches your other script? | 14:19 |
| JessD | silv3r_m00n : Was your card one of the devices mentioned in the link I sent you? | 14:19 |
| cgroza | casinaroyale:no idea, google is your friend... my only bad experience with grub was when i made a swap partition and i solved it by reinstalling grub | 14:19 |
| linusoleander | mmvv: I dont know how to do that | 14:20 |
| silv3r_m00n | i didnt get the link | 14:20 |
| silv3r_m00n | can u give that again | 14:20 |

| BluesKaj | hiyas all | 14:20 |
| novato_br | is it possible to download from repository with wget? | 14:21 |
| crispy_chunks | simple question: how is it possible to see what ./configure paramaters a certain package have been compiled with? For example transcode or ffmpeg | 14:21 |
| mmvv | linusoleander I'm not sure how else you'd do it, unless you scheduled a job that killed your script some time in the future using at or cron | 14:21 |
| silv3r_m00n | JessD: thats for a laptop ? | 14:21 |
| silv3r_m00n | mine is a PC | 14:21 |

| novato_br | ok | 14:21 |
| JessD | silv3r_m00n : While that particular bug talks about the sound chipset being in a latop, yes, it's possible your onboard sound card is the same sound device mounted on a different mobo | 14:22 |
| JessD | sil3r_m00n : I'm also wondering if, failing all else, the same fix would work for you | 14:23 |

| mmvv | bitplane you say it works in windows? | 14:36 |
| bitplane | I don't have a windows install on this machine, but I ruled out the cable and the router's LAN port | 14:36 |
| ouyes | bitplane, are you using RJ45? | 14:36 |
| bitplane | mmvv, the status of eth0 has no ip4 address, I looked in the filesystem place and read some stuff online, carrier should be = 1 if it has a cable | 14:36 |
| julikoko | pls is their anybody that can tell me how pidgin can be displaying | 14:36 |
| JmeTx | do i just ask my question on the main window? | 14:36 |
| bitplane | ouyes, yeah standard cat5 cable | 14:36 |

| bitplane | 100mbit | 14:37 |
| cAs | doesnt work :(, when i enter a virgin CD, ubuntu mounts it, but for example if theres a movie burned, Ubuntu doesnt mount it :S | 14:37 |
| osirisx11 | i have 6gb of ram using PAE and my swappiness is 10 (and slower than i'd like) can I change my swappiness to 5? or what is the formula on what is ideal swappiness? | 14:37 |

| bitplane | mmvv, I mean the hardware doesn't physically have link lights at either end, too damn cheap | 14:38 |
| ouyes | bitplane, have you tired on the same machine but different system? | 14:38 |
| mkanyicy | Bash, why that? | 14:38 |

| cAs | ill see | 14:38 |
| bitplane | ouyes, only the live CD which used to work (it worked before I installed Ubuntu anyway) | 14:38 |
| maxjay | jaha | 14:38 |
| mmvv | bitplane I got you. So linux sees the port because it is listed in ifconfig -a | 14:38 |
| Bash | Because compiz isn't working | 14:38 |
| swapy | no luck guys | 14:39 |
| Bash | and in the check it's the only thing missing | 14:39 |
| ouyes | bitplane, any other OS? | 14:39 |
| mkanyicy | cAs, anyway, it may be that your drive is going towards the end of its life | 14:39 |
| mmvv | bitplane and when you unplug the cable from the linux box and plug it in another machine, that one gets link? | 14:39 |
| bitplane | no, my Windows CD has a dodgy license key and won't install | 14:39 |
| Bash | mkanyicy, Checking for Xgl: not present. | 14:39 |
| bitplane | mmvv yes, works on this laptop here in Windows, so it's not the cable | 14:39 |
| julikoko | @JessD tanx ure too much | 14:39 |
| cAs | may be, buts its quite new, one year and half... | 14:39 |
| JessD | julikoko : Quite welcome | 14:39 |
| mkanyicy | Bash, do you have compiz-check ? | 14:39 |
| bitplane | it just seems strange that my onboard LAN card would actually break like that at a reboot, but so far everything points at that | 14:40 |
| mmvv | bitplane Ubuntu in their wisdom took ethtool out of the standard installation | 14:40 |
| bitplane | ugh | 14:40 |
| Bash | mkanyicy, no | 14:40 |
| cAs | anyway, Ive just entered an original movie and Ubuntu reads it | 14:40 |
| ouyes | bitplane, i think there maybe something wrong with your enthernet hardware, or the card, or the interface | 14:40 |
| Bash | mkanyicy, no I ran compiz --replace in teminal and I'm going off the errrors... | 14:40 |
| swapy | i am using diskspace screenlet and mounting hard drives gave all mount points in options but mount points with single name got mounted but mount points like this /media/Os Drive didnt get mounted | 14:40 |
| swapy | tried everything | 14:41 |
| mmvv | bitplane does the machine have wireless access to the net? | 14:41 |
| swapy | tell me how to do when spaces occur between name | 14:41 |
| JmeTx | anyone knows how to change login screen on 9.10? | 14:41 |
| swapy | even for mount points | 14:41 |
| bitplane | mmvv, Ubuntu doesn't recognise my wifi card :( | 14:41 |
| erUSUL | swapy: use quotes or scape the space with \ | 14:41 |
| ouyes | bitplane, try to run another system to check if the hardware is ok . | 14:41 |
| mkanyicy | Bash, google for 'compiz-check' and use it to debug compiz for you | 14:41 |
| mmvv | bitplane is this a laptop? | 14:41 |
| bitplane | no it's a tower | 14:41 |
| cAs | whats the average life for a dvd reader? | 14:41 |
| swapy | no luck | 14:42 |
| bitplane | maybe someone got in and flashed my LAN firmware or something, it's bloody weird this :/ | 14:42 |
| mmvv | bitplane you can download ethtool from the repos on the windows machine and stick it on a usbstick | 14:42 |
| bitplane | sounds like a plan, i'll try that thanks | 14:42 |
| ouyes | mmvv, perhaps he has had a hardware trouble , need to be mended | 14:42 |
| mmvv | ouyes and maybe he hasn't | 14:42 |
| mkanyicy | cAs, that happened to my work laptop, it is too old | 14:42 |
| mkanyicy | cAs, after burning a dvd it cannot read it | 14:43 |
| mmvv | ouyes the device is recognised by the ubuntu install | 14:43 |
| cAs | mkanicy, that could happen in one year and a half? | 14:43 |
| mkanyicy | cAs, but another computer can read the dvd it cannot read (but it burned) | 14:43 |
| ouyes | mmvv, i have never had enthernet trouble | 14:43 |
| shane2peru | copying a very large (140GB) file from one external hdd to another has been running for 9hours and is still running, claims to have 24 hours more to go??? If I tared it would that be better? | 14:43 |
| mkanyicy | cAs, maybe 3 to 5 years | 14:43 |

| ubottu | Пожалуйста посетите #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке / Pozhalujsta posetite #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke | 14:44 |
| ouyes | mmvv, en, ok, i have not see that | 14:44 |
| Bash | mkanyicy, its saying everything is ok | 14:44 |
| bitplane | shane2peru: probably not, it would take you a long time to gzip it | 14:44 |
| Bash | mkanyicy, but its not working... | 14:44 |
| Snowy09 | so wat happens when i download the playonlinix is done and installed | 14:44 |
| Bash | mkanyicy, so It's most likely XGL prob | 14:44 |
| mmvv | ouyes I have had ethernet trouble. My laptop needs autonegotiation turned off before the link comes up | 14:44 |
| shane2peru | bitplane, it started at like 8mb a sec and is down to 1, why is that? | 14:44 |
| cAs | mkanicy, then what I should do is...replacing the dvd reader for another one newer? | 14:45 |
| bitplane | shane, maybe fragmentation? what are you copying from/to? | 14:45 |
| bitplane | you'll be lucky to get 10 megs a second across USB, in my experience | 14:45 |
| shane2peru | bitplane, copying from ext3 external hdd to ntfs (newley formated) external hdd | 14:45 |
| ouyes | mmvv, you have bad luck, and i have good luck, ethernet are always fine with my lap | 14:46 |

| xguru | i have removed emerald, but the window boarders have went away....i removed the line in ccsm where emerald --replace was in window decorations..... | 14:47 |
| Snowy09 | does that mean i can play games on linix | 14:47 |
| mkanyicy | shane2peru, its like that everytime | 14:47 |
| Justin_` | !java | Justin_` | 14:47 |
| ubottu | Justin_`, please see my private message | 14:47 |
| shane2peru | mkanyicy, is it because of the file size? | 14:47 |
| mmvv | ouyes I work with linux and ethernet devices all day every day. Rarely do I find an ethernet device that does not just work "Out of the box" with linux (and freebsd for that matter) but that doesn't mean they will all always work. | 14:47 |
| mkanyicy | shane2peru, yes | 14:47 |
| shane2peru | mkanyicy, is there anyway to speed it up? or do so faster? | 14:48 |
| mkanyicy | shane2peru, no way | 14:48 |
| mkanyicy | shane2peru, try compressing before sending files | 14:48 |
| shane2peru | mkanyicy, I guess sit and wait, like this is a goverment job. :) | 14:48 |
| Christoph^ | Can somebody help me make wlan work? | 14:48 |
| cAs | mkanicy, ill see it on windows and if it keeps not working, Ill replace it | 14:48 |
| ouyes | i remember yesterday i tried to help someone with the wireless issue, he (she) told me he would try the method we suggest today and give me a message about the result, but i am online always today, but i get no such message, | 14:48 |
| Christoph^ | A Netbook is quite useless without wlan ^^ | 14:49 |
| cAs | mkanicy, thank you very much!! ^^ | 14:49 |
| shane2peru | mkanyicy, half the problem is that it is so large I have no room to play with it, or put it anywhere else. | 14:49 |
| futurama140 | could somoene tell me if there is a way to change the default action in ubuntu to highlight ALL text with a single click in things like the address bar? note: im not talking about the about:config in firefox, as i do not use firefox, and all google tells me is that firefox does it. | 14:49 |
| shane2peru | mkanyicy, thanks though, I guess I will let it run | 14:49 |

| MaT-dg | petsounds: you have to plug the 1st set in de jack for the front speakers and the 2nd set in the jack for the rear speakers. I can't say what color they have since it is different on some audiocards. In alsamixer you have to select 4.0 channels output | 15:35 |

| Manii | hello, is there a way to connect ubuntu to a homegroup (not workgroup which is what the people on the forum keep referring it to) | 16:04 |
| bitplane | roooots: I guess you need to figure out whether your x server is really running or not. Let's see... | 16:04 |
| coz_ | Manii, I am sure there is but if no one here can help you may want to try the ##linux channel | 16:04 |
| paissad | hi all, i wrote a shell script that checks the hard disks temperatures every n minutes, & if the temperature reach a treshold i run an action ( btw, i could be shutting down the server, but i would like if it's possible to just a sort of desactiving the related disk so that it does not work anymore ) | 16:04 |
| Manii | okay thanks coz_ | 16:04 |
| bitplane | roooots: type: ps -A | grep X | 16:05 |
| bitplane | if you see Xorg in the list then I guess it's running | 16:05 |

| ouyes | xiaohang99, why 5.04? | 16:06 |
| beta__ | xiaohang99, why 5.04 | 16:06 |
| mharris | paissad: wouldn't it be easier to put a fan on the hard drive? :) | 16:06 |
| paissad | beta_, yeah, why not doing an umount | 16:06 |
| MariachiAC | hello. How can i get wifi over the command line. The defaults of using iwconfig and dhclient3 do not work. | 16:06 |
| scunizi | MegaHerz: the middle program you're looking for is to PDF what you want to print | 16:06 |
| bitplane | xiaohang99: In 9.10 you have IBus Preferences in the System->Preferences menu | 16:06 |
| paissad | mharris, there are fan on my hdds ! | 16:06 |

| MegaHerz | scunizi: :( I don't want to distorb ppl on windows host | 16:07 |
| ViaNocturna1 | i dont know if anyone is having any similar probs but i removed empathy a while ago and went to install it (on Karmic) and it depends on empathy-common...which isnt in the repositories?! | 16:07 |

| Manii | I cant send to ##linux | 16:07 |
| ouyes | xiaohang99, hi why 5.04, it is so old, why try 8.04( if you have old lap or pc , you can use the xubuntu) | 16:07 |
| coz_ | mcce11, oh i see 8.10 thos links you gave me are for the libsogmc library | 16:07 |
| xiaohang99 | I am new guy | 16:08 |
| scunizi | MegaHerz: canon isn't really friendly.. Brother is much better as well as HP | 16:08 |
| coz_ | mcce11, what are you compiling that requires those libraries / and do you have a link for that? | 16:08 |
| jrib | ViaNocturna1: run sudo aptitude update and try again. If the problem persists, pastebin your command and the full output as well as your /etc/apt/sources.list | 16:08 |
| beta__ | xiaohang99, where did you even find 5.04? lol | 16:08 |

| futurama140 | could somoene tell me if there is a way to change the default action in ubuntu to highlight ALL text with a single click in things like the address bar? note: im not talking about the about:config in firefox, as i do not use firefox, and all google tells me is that firefox does it. | 16:08 |
| ViaNocturna1 | i done update many times, no luck...whats the pastebin command? | 16:08 |
| ouyes | xiaohang99, the latest is 9.10 i suggest you install it | 16:08 |
| bitplane | futurama140: I guess that would be a GTK+ thing, if the setting even exists | 16:08 |
| ouyes | xiaohang99, it has a good language support | 16:09 |
| bitplane | futurama140: you could bind an extra mouse button to left click followed by CTRL+A | 16:09 |
| futurama140 | what is gtk+? | 16:09 |
| xiaohang99 | o,because it's top on google | 16:09 |
| MegaHerz | Is there some STANDARD Postscript priner driver on Ubuntu? What is its name? | 16:09 |

| abhijit | and thanx for talking | 16:13 |

| jrib | ViaNocturna1: follow the rabbit... what happens when you attempt to install empathy-common directly? | 16:18 |
| bitplane | roooots: hmm, I'm not sure to be honest, maybe you need to kill your x server and start a fresh one... "killall Xorg" to kill the server "startx" to start it again, then "gnome-session" to start a graphical desktop session attached to the x11 server | 16:18 |

| pfifo | Christoph^, iWolf, I wont be able to help too much, but to point you in the right direction your going to have to use ndiswrapper and a windows driver more than likely... My 701 uses the ath5k kernel module, but they must have put a different type of wireless card in the 901's and up | 16:34 |

| fireball_ | scunzi: thanks | 16:34 |
| kevalmighty | Ndiswrapper module is SO hard to get | 16:34 |
| bitplane | roooots: I guess you should learn by just using it for a while, it's not so different from other operating systems. The main thing is learning to install, remove and configure stuff at the command line | 16:34 |
| Hodapp | pfifo: Any idea what to do when some update just completely screwed up my wireless? | 16:34 |
| iWolf | And if someone has the answer to my EeePC 900 Wireless, please PM me | 16:34 |

| kevalmighty | Hodapp: do you know how to install that ndiswrapper? | 16:35 |
| pfifo | Christoph^, iWolf, maybe, just maybe, you can get lucky, try 'modprobe ath5k' | 16:35 |
| Hodapp | kevalmighty: I installed ndiswrapper and it was working fine for weeks on this card. | 16:35 |

| hiexpo | i dont understand why most atheros drivers work fine | 16:36 |
| kevalmighty | Hodapp: well where you found it. Last time I was using ndisgtk for isntalling windows driver but it says , ndiswrapper module was not installed | 16:36 |
| mdisieno | is there a particular reason that synaptic seems to be running on a gtk1 engine everytime i switch to a thirdparty theme for gtk? | 16:36 |
| Hodapp | Atheros drivers were working just fine on this. There's some idiotic kernel bug in recent versions that is making my card not want to work right (it connects but disconnects frequently) | 16:36 |

| ubottu | vaid: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 17:02 |
| Hodapp | bitplane: I know that my settings are correct. I know that the hardware is fine. The problem is some nonsense Ubuntu did. | 17:02 |
| vaid | after upgrading | 17:02 |
| Powerplay | hi | 17:03 |
| gmachine_24 | Greeting Earthlings. I want to cp all the jpg files on a hard drive to a separate folder. These are album art and are stored in many directories and sub-directories but all under a main directory /music1. Can I use the 'cp' command or is there a scan program that will help? Thanks. | 17:03 |
| Jenk | hey, can somebody help to read an UDF DVD on ubuntu ?? | 17:03 |
| vaid | should I configure it from 0 stage | 17:03 |
| xukun | anybody? | 17:03 |
| bitplane | Hodapp, my solution was to simply disable IPv6 in network manager | 17:03 |
| xukun | how can I see if my cpu support virtualization? | 17:03 |
| pfifo | gmachine_24, try usinf 'find' with the -exec switch | 17:03 |
| Powerplay | guys i've been following this tutorial http://www.meppum.com/2009/jan/17/installing-django-ubuntu-intrepid/ but i keep on running into a '502 Bad Gateway error' for nginx Anybody ideas? | 17:04 |
| gmachine_24 | pfifo, thanks. can I pipe the findings......i.e. copy them.......the actual files .. to a separate folder. | 17:04 |
| cAs-karmico | could anyone tell me how to bookmark this channel or sth like that? | 17:04 |
| bitplane | Hodapp: that might be worth a try, after an update eth0 got shut down (ifconfig said it was up, but daemon.log said it was down) because IPv6 settings were wrong or unsupported | 17:04 |
| Powerplay | found out it has to do with apache mod wsgi / nginx | 17:04 |
| bazhang | cAs-karmico, which irc client | 17:04 |
| pfifo | gmachine_24, find will execute the command you specify with the -exec switch on each file it finds | 17:05 |
| Hodapp | bitplane: I do not see a single reason IPv6 would be the culprit. | 17:05 |
| cAs-karmico | bazhang, chatzilla | 17:05 |
| scunizi | vaid: I don't understand the question.. you mean starting again from 0? It's always recommended you backup your data... just in case .. then do the upgrade process.. however you'll have to upgrade to 9.04 then 9.10 then in april 10.04.. I'd just wait. backup your data and go directly to 10.04 with a fresh intsall. | 17:05 |
| gmachine_24 | pfifo, ok. thanks. | 17:05 |
| bazhang | cAs-karmico, let me check | 17:05 |
| cAs-karmico | bazhang, ok ty so much | 17:05 |
| kyppcgeekChef | Anyone have an idea on my Laptop situation? | 17:06 |
| bullgard | How can I log a channel subscribed to in Chatzilla? | 17:06 |
| Jenk | kyppcgeekChef, explain a bit | 17:06 |
| ortsvorsteher | !anyone | kyppcgeekChef | 17:06 |
| ubottu | kyppcgeekChef: 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? | 17:06 |
| scunizi | bullgard: chatzilla should have a logging feature.. check it's menus | 17:06 |
| Pelias | how can I filter nslookup output to get just IP address? | 17:06 |
| pfifo | scunizi, they wont have a 8.04 -> 10.04 upgrade? alot of people/business use 8.04 | 17:06 |
| vaid | scunizi, I don't have important data yet to backup | 17:06 |
| IdleOne | cAs-karmico: look for a subscribe button | 17:07 |
| kyppcgeekChef | Jenk: I'm looking at a Toshiba L505-ES5018 and want to make sure I don't have an ACPI boot error issue as shown by other sites of other L505 laptops | 17:07 |
| scunizi | pfifo: yes they do .. but vaid is on 8.10. he can't do that jump | 17:07 |
| vaid | scunizi, I think I want to clean it up and jump directly to the latest version, what do you think? | 17:07 |
| scunizi | vaid: sure | 17:07 |
| kyppcgeekChef | Jenk: I searched Google and Yahoo for this L505-ES5018 laptop and found nothing listed except for sales sheets | 17:07 |
| cAs-karmico | IdleOne, ok Ill see if I find it | 17:07 |
| IdleOne | cAs-karmico: in the meantime bazhang is still looking. :) | 17:08 |
| vaid | scunizi, how can I do that? upgrading without backing up or there is a formatting stage or something before doing that | 17:08 |
| kyppcgeekChef | Make sense? | 17:08 |
| cAs-karmico | IdleOne, I know and I than it so much ^^ | 17:08 |
| cAs-karmico | btw, Ive seen an option to "open this channel at startup" which is even better than bookmarking it for me :D | 17:09 |
| scunizi | vaid: backup your data first.. download and burn the latest ISO, install new system formatting on the way.. you might consider making your /home a seperate partition.. if it is you don't have to format it on a reinstall.. | 17:09 |
| Jenk | kyppcgeekChef, that's a bit technical... how about asking one of technicians in your area ?? | 17:09 |
| IdleOne | cAs-karmico: you could also install xchat from Synaptic package Manager. | 17:09 |
| ehlim | hi all | 17:09 |
| cAs-karmico | IdleOne, dyou think thats the best IRC client? | 17:10 |
| vaid | scunizi, it's not my home server it's a vps I purchased online | 17:10 |
| IdleOne | cAs-karmico: it is the best irc client for me | 17:10 |
| bitplane | Pelias: nslookup host | grep Server | awk '{ print $NF }' | 17:10 |
| Powerplay | this is the nginx localhost.access.log http://dpaste.com/152614/ | 17:10 |
| bullgard | scunizi: I went through all Chatzilla menu items twice. I could not find a relevant menu item. | 17:10 |
| Jenk | hey, can somebody help to read an UDF DVD on ubuntu ?? i get an invalid mount option error. | 17:10 |
| cAs-karmico | IdleOne, Ill give it a try when I know how IRC works, cos its my very first day hehe | 17:10 |
| indietrash | is this http://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/download a live cd? | 17:11 |
| scunizi | bullgard: might be time to use a different client | 17:11 |
| bullgard | scunizi: Yes. | 17:11 |
| jrib | indietrash: the desktop cd is both a live cd and install cd | 17:11 |
| indietrash | jrib: kthnx | 17:11 |
| cAs-karmico | btw anyone from Madrid?? | 17:12 |
| bitplane | Jenk, did you try this? http://amazingrando.wordpress.com/2007/05/02/how-to-mount-udf-dvds-in-ubuntu/ | 17:12 |
| cAs-karmico | Cause Id like to join or create a Loco in Madrid | 17:12 |
| jrib | !loco | cAs-karmico | 17:13 |
| ubottu | cAs-karmico: Information on Ubuntu Local Community Teams is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeams | 17:13 |
| m13e37 | quit <time to go> | 17:13 |
| cAs-karmico | oh thank you guys ^^ | 17:13 |
| bazhang | cAs-karmico, under lists, you can set actions minus the leading / in this case /join #channel (this is on the server you are on in this case freenode) | 17:13 |
| cAs-karmico | bazhang, thank you very much :D | 17:13 |
| Jenk | bitplane, thanks, ya i've tried it before. tried to change the option to auto, tried changing the order of options, it doesn't help. | 17:13 |
| cAs-karmico | jrib, what does that mean? | 17:14 |
| Jenk | bitplane, there are similar cases in the comments section of the link you gave.. | 17:14 |
| jrib | cAs-karmico: it tells ubottu to give you information | 17:14 |
| kevalmighty | Hey anyone could help me how to enter in ubuntu after entering in the user / pw | 17:14 |
| kevalmighty | Im doing vmware ubuntu and I don't know what to type to enter XD | 17:14 |
| Liquid-Silence | ok ubuntu install :D | 17:14 |
| cAs-karmico | jrib, so ubottu is a bot? | 17:14 |
| jrib | kevalmighty: you're going to have to be more specific... | 17:14 |
| jrib | cAs-karmico: ye | 17:14 |
| Liquid-Silence | anyone know about nvidia stuff? | 17:14 |
| jrib | !nvidia | Liquid-Silence | 17:15 |
| ubottu | Liquid-Silence: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 17:15 |
| bitplane | Jenk: what's the lowdown on the disk? I mean, it's a DVD right? What software was it made in? Is it from a Mac, if so what version of OSX and what burning software... | 17:15 |
| cAs-karmico | jrib, ah hehe thank u ^^ | 17:15 |
| Jenk | bitplane, burnt in Vista. Ya, it's a DVD. | 17:15 |
| bazhang | cAs-karmico, I dont see a Loco for madrid, perhaps the folks in #ubuntu-es can help there | 17:16 |
| bitplane | Jenk: can you burn a DVD with one file on it, then take an image of it, compress it and submit it somewhere for people to try and mount it? | 17:16 |
| bazhang | cAs-karmico, /join #ubuntu-es if you wish to inquire further | 17:16 |
| Liquid-Silence | jrib: mind a quick pm? | 17:17 |
| howling | heh | 17:17 |
| cAs-karmico | bazhang, yes, as far as Ive seen there isnt any Madrid Loco... | 17:17 |
| howling | i got a problem error: you need to load the kernel first | 17:17 |
| Pelias | bitplane: Thanks, but unfortunately that won't work, since dumb nslookup returns something like this | 17:17 |
| Pelias | # nslookup bbc.co.uk | 17:17 |
| Pelias | Server: 127.0.0.1 | 17:17 |
| Pelias | Address 1: 127.0.0.1 | 17:17 |

| FloodBot4 | Pelias: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 17:17 |
| kevalmighty | Anyone know what command to enter in ubuntu after logging in ? exemple : backtrack you just type in startx and you log in the UI | 17:17 |
| Jenk | bitplane, I didn't burn it. My mum's friend burned it using Vista and it's not readable here. I dunno anyone else around ... | 17:18 |
| Pelias | http://paste.ubuntu.com/365774/ | 17:18 |
| cAs-karmico | bazhang, thank you ^^, Im also looking over here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeams | 17:18 |
| howling | how can i fix my boot? | 17:18 |
| nytek_ | hey room | 17:18 |
| bitplane | Pelias, write a regular expression and use sed instead of awk | 17:18 |
| scunizi | Jenk: is it the iso data file on the dvd as opposed to burning the ISO correctly for booting? | 17:18 |
| Pelias | line with host and DNS server addresses are virtually the same:/ | 17:18 |
| kevalmighty | Anyone know what command to enter in ubuntu after logging in ? exemple : backtrack you just type in startx and you log in the UI | 17:18 |
| Liquid-Silence | jrib: why not use proprietary? | 17:18 |
| pfifo | kevalmighty, what version of ubuntu are you on? | 17:19 |
| Jenk | bitplane, Invalid mount option when attempting to mount "UDF Volume". | 17:19 |
| howling | how can i fix my kernel with recovery cd? | 17:19 |
| notk0 | kevalmighty, after you log in you should be in a functional desktop environement. startx starts X | 17:19 |
| bitplane | kevalmighty: it's supposed to start it automatically | 17:19 |
| === vagvaf is now known as vagvaf_ | ||
| Jenk | scunizi, i don't know what files are there on the dvd as i'm unable to get it mounted... | 17:19 |
| kevalmighty | it says startx isnt installed | 17:19 |
| notk0 | kevalmighty, short answer: you don't need to type anything, unless you have ubuntu server edition it comes with no desktop environement | 17:19 |
| kevalmighty | I can install by typing a command | 17:19 |
| scunizi | Jenk: ah.. didn't see that first part.. | 17:20 |
| notk0 | kevalmighty, you have installed the standard ubuntu ? or alternate edition? or server edition? | 17:20 |
| Jenk | scunizi, that's fine, have you any ideas ??? | 17:20 |
| pfifo | kevalmighty, it sounds like you have the server edition or are running the alternate live cd | 17:20 |
| garymc | ive installed postfix and dovecot. Now when i run the command 'telnet mail.mydomain.com 25' it says connected then says connection closed by foriegn host. Why is this? | 17:20 |
| notk0 | kevalmighty, server edition has no Desktop environement | 17:20 |
| notk0 | by default, you can install it of course | 17:21 |
| riqeh | helloo.. | 17:21 |
| scunizi | Jenk: you can download your own iso and using unetbootin put it on a usb stick or burn it on a cdrom | 17:21 |
| notk0 | riqeh, don't just ask | 17:21 |
| Jenk | scunizi, If it helps, this is the error that I get.. Cannot mount volume : Invalid mount option when attempting to mount "UDF Volume" | 17:21 |
| Liquid-Silence | hmmm | 17:22 |
| Jenk | scunizi, there are some files on it, it isn't an iso image that's been burned. | 17:22 |
| notk0 | Jenk can you tell again what you are trying to do? | 17:22 |
| Liquid-Silence | what is newer nvidia-glx-96 or nvidia-glx-185 | 17:22 |
| recmajkemi | Hi I think i messed up my system a bit .. So i tried to do clean install over existing one (not side by side), i also have winxp on other partition and id like to keep that. How do i navigate there in installation process ? | 17:22 |
| devendra | my laptop cam is not working earlier it was working, now cheese shows "no camera found!" . Its working in other OS. | 17:23 |
| scunizi | Jenk: not sure but I seem to remember something about UDF volume being a type that makes the dvd/cd a mass storage device for drag and drop (in windows).. it was pretty horrible.. but that's all I know. | 17:23 |
| Jenk | notk0, I'm trying to read (mount) an UDF Volume. | 17:23 |
| Jenk | scunizi, that's all that i get, but thanks for your time... | 17:23 |
| notk0 | Jenk already burned? | 17:23 |
| scunizi | Jenk: good luck | 17:23 |
| Jenk | scunizi, thanks, i need loads of it... | 17:24 |
| wilbur | whats up | 17:24 |
| * Liquid-Silence goes back to fixing his gfx drivers | 17:24 | |
| wilbur | what | 17:24 |
| Jenk | notk0, ya, and i cant access it on 9.04. it's burned on Vista. | 17:24 |
| scunizi | notk0: to summerize Jenk 's issue.. he's got a dvd he can't mount because of a UDF error on mounting.. the dvd was given to him | 17:24 |
| Liquid-Silence | anyone here using the proprietary nvidia drivers? | 17:24 |
| notk0 | Jenk you don't have an alternative OS? | 17:24 |
| scunizi | Liquid-Silence: yep | 17:24 |
| Liquid-Silence | scunizi: mind a quick pm? | 17:25 |
| === atomiku is now known as atomiku|out | ||
| bitplane | Liquid-Silence: I am, they work fine for me, well *mostly* | 17:25 |
| wilbur | what r u talking about | 17:25 |
| Jenk | no, i'm new to linux and am using only ubuntu 9.04 | 17:25 |
| bazhang | wilbur, this is ubuntu support | 17:25 |
| pfifo | Liquid-Silence, MSI GTS250 twin frozr | 17:25 |
| scunizi | Liquid-Silence: you can do it here.. are these the ones from nvidia or the one's provided by ubuntu? | 17:25 |
| wilbur | use 9.10 | 17:25 |
| Liquid-Silence | from nvidia | 17:25 |
| bazhang | wilbur, chat in #ubuntu-offtopic | 17:25 |
| Liquid-Silence | going to install it now! | 17:25 |
| wilbur | its really good | 17:25 |
| scunizi | Liquid-Silence: k.. what's the question | 17:26 |
| notk0 | Jenk there is a chance that I could have been "badly" written/corrupted have you tried to mount it as root? | 17:26 |
| Liquid-Silence | going to install it | 17:26 |
| Liquid-Silence | bbiab | 17:26 |
| pfifo | Liquid-Silence, use 185 and nvidia-settings program, theres really nothing to it | 17:26 |
| kanzie_ | ok, plugged in my speakers and it seems I don't have sound. Always some little thing that wont work. In what end do I start to find the cause of this? | 17:26 |
| kanzie_ | The speakers are fine | 17:26 |
| kanzie_ | Im playing mp3 in Rhytmbox | 17:27 |
| notk0 | kanzie_, it can be that alsa-mixer issue I had it as well you must mute some channels | 17:27 |
| notk0 | kanzie_, do you have the mp3 codec installed? | 17:27 |
| Jenk | no, the disc opens up on the comp it was burned. so it isn't corrupted. i've tried mounting it using sudo but generally discs are mounted automatically... | 17:27 |
| notk0 | Jenk it is strange, sorry but I can't help you much | 17:27 |
| kanzie_ | notk0, believe so... I can fire up VLC and play a movie for now, just to ensure its not codec-isseues | 17:27 |
| dayo | i'm trying to mirror http://progit.org/book/ by using `wget -mk http://progit.org/book/` but all that does is download index.html and nothing else. | 17:27 |

| kanzie_ | only sound | 17:28 |
| notk0 | kanzie_, what soundcard do you have? | 17:28 |
| jinxx | Does anybody know how to fix the problem where I open 'trash' or 'computer' or any virtual folders and it crashes nautilus? | 17:28 |
| kanzie_ | notk0, don't know really... could be embedded on the nvidia board or a soundblaster | 17:28 |
| Jenk | notk0, if it helps here is my dmesg | output... http://paste.ubuntu.com/365779/ | 17:28 |
| notk0 | Jenk can you force it to mount as another FS type? | 17:29 |
| kanzie_ | notk0, solved | 17:29 |
| notk0 | kanzie_, what was the problem? | 17:29 |
| Jenk | notk0, like make it mount as iso9660 ?? i've tried that. | 17:29 |
| notk0 | :( | 17:29 |
| cbleslie | dayo. that's the expected outcome. | 17:29 |
| kanzie_ | notk0, hmm... not entirely fixed...it stutters | 17:30 |
| Jenk | notk0, i've also tried using the auto option and using the udf option. | 17:30 |

| cbleslie | dayo. I got nothing :( | 17:32 |
| dayo | cbleslie: ok, thanks anyway | 17:32 |

| Jenk | bitplane, maybe you could have some more clues.... if it helps here is my dmesg | output... http://paste.ubuntu.com/365779/ | 17:48 |
| bitplane | jenk, your problem is that it thinks the disk is bigger than it really is, as if it was cut off half way through or badly burned | 17:48 |

| jrib | mkanyicy: nope | 18:11 |
| mkanyicy | jrib, what is it? | 18:11 |
| Jenk | erUSUL, so, can you throw some more light on this ?? | 18:11 |

| Twiner | I recently installed Ubuntu Server edition to an old laptop I had lying around here, to test different things out on. Well, it turns out that the OS hangs when I close the lid; the CPU fan cranks to 11, and half a minute later the machine powers off... (The screen stays blank until the machine powers off.) Is there a way to turn the lid switch function off? (Nope, there's no config for it in BIOS.) | 18:12 |
| meowagi | help | 18:12 |
| meowagi | i have no files in /boot | 18:12 |
| geirha | Walex: How much reserved space? | 18:12 |
| meowagi | only grub and memtest.bin | 18:12 |
| arvind_khadri | shrini, i think there is trouble shoot entry for that | 18:12 |
| Walex | pfifo: no, it is just that it is a 'root' filesystem and gets updated. Other filesystems are a bit more resistant to fragmentation. | 18:12 |
| Gadget3000 | tham1: I'm not sure what else to suggest. Sorry | 18:12 |
| shrini | arvind_khadri: yes. i too thnk so. | 18:13 |
| om26er | meowagi, you might have a separate /boot so as you are in a live session it probably not mounted | 18:13 |
| tham1 | Gadget3000: ah, no prob, thanks for your time! | 18:13 |
| meowagi | om26er its mounted with my cd | 18:13 |

| Jenk | geirha, so , you know anything about this... mounting an UDF disc ?? | 18:14 |
| erUSUL | Jenk: dunno if it only one that fails could be just corrupted | 18:14 |

| mkanyicy | Jenk, mounting of UDF disk is straightfoward and automatic | 18:15 |

| Jenk | geirha, thanks for your concern.. :-) !! | 18:15 |

| CAPcap | is there a way to turn of the alt+click to drag thing? | 18:17 |
| geirha | Jenk: Try with other dvds. If none works, then it's either the drive or the driver | 18:17 |
| alasdair1 | Walex: thanks for the suggestion. I uses chsh to set the default shell to /bin/bash, logged out and logged in again, but I still have the same problem. | 18:17 |
| Twiner | Does anyone know how to disable the lid switch on a laptop running Ubuntu Server edition? It mucks up everything. | 18:17 |
| Jenk | geirha, other dvd's work, this one is in UDF format and this doesn't work... | 18:17 |
| Jenk | mkanyicy, your lucky it works for you, but have you any ideas on how you got it to work ?? | 18:18 |
| pfifo | Twiner, do you have X installed? | 18:18 |
| Walex | alasdair1: if you are logging in with '/bin/bash' that's very very unlikely. | 18:19 |
| devendra | cheese is not working suddenly. | 18:19 |
| Walex | alasdair1: however you can try tracing. | 18:19 |
| Twiner | pfifo: If X is a desktop environment, then nope. | 18:19 |
| Twiner | (: | 18:19 |
| CAPcap | devendra is it not recognizing your webcam? | 18:19 |
| Twiner | I'm a bit of a novice. | 18:19 |
| Walex | alasdair1: put 'set -x' in '~/.bashrc' and then run 'bash -=i --login' and see what gets traced. | 18:19 |
| devendra | CAPcap, yes, it says "no cam found" earlier it was working. | 18:20 |
| devendra | CAPcap, lsusb shows cam. | 18:20 |
| CAPcap | devendra is it a udb webcam? | 18:20 |

| Odd-rationale | Dario: usually, you have to know the name of the executable. sometime, if you use the menu editor, you can see the command that the menu item runs... | 18:26 |

| erUSUL | pfifo: ubuntufreak for example --> mv ~/.mozilla/ ~/.mozilla.old/ | 18:48 |
| mkanyicy | ubuntufreak, pfifo you may export your bookmarks to a file and delete ~/.mozilla and then import your bookmarks file on a fresh firefox | 18:49 |

| pfifo | i have a html page with all my important stuff. what I really miss is my saved passwords | 18:50 |
| infid | i need to rsync some files from one computer to an ubuntu box. the problem is, there's only enough spaces on /backups to fit the 40gb file but how can i rsync something to a root file system (/backups)? i can't do rsync file root@<ip> | 18:50 |
| ubuntufreak | erUSUL, pfifo, mkanyicy, i have the backup of the bookmarks can i move it to the old now | 18:50 |
| mkanyicy | ubuntufreak, yes do as erUSUL suggested because you can 'undo' if you want to go back | 18:50 |
| ubuntufreak | erUSUL, pfifo, mkanyicy : Thanks for the help guys its working fine now and i am able to access Firefox from the menu | 18:51 |
| heoa | How can I kill a process that is locking a dir? | 18:52 |
| heoa | $ fuser -k file is for files but what about dirs? | 18:53 |
| pfifo | heoa, kill -9 <process number> | 18:53 |
| klaxian | is there a way to make a "guest" account for terminal login only? | 18:53 |
| infid | everything in linux is a file are you sure fuser cares about the directory bit | 18:53 |
| mkanyicy | heoa, a process cannot use a directory | 18:54 |
| totam | hi | 18:54 |
| pfifo | !hi | totam | 18:54 |
| ubottu | totam: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! | 18:54 |
| mkanyicy | heoa, try 'find dirname -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sudo fuser -k' | 18:55 |
| infid | you could 'lsof <dir>' too | 18:55 |
| mkanyicy | heoa, make sure you have not 'cd'-ied to that directory on terminal before you try umounting | 18:55 |
| klaxian | is there any way to add a "guest" user that does not require a password to log in? | 18:56 |
| kraut | hi | 18:56 |
| mkanyicy | klaxian, yes | 18:56 |
| kraut | is the ubuntu generic-kernel rebooting per default after a panic? | 18:56 |
| actionparsnip | Yo yo yo | 18:56 |
| infid | lsof +p <pid> | 18:57 |
| candy | kraut, its not an chit chat room. | 18:57 |
| totam | I m using ubuntu, i wonder if it's good for professional (i m a student in computer science ) | 18:57 |
| heoa | mkanyicy: did not work. It is actually not process but other comp but I cannot access it due to weekend | 18:57 |
| actionparsnip | Totam: depends what the system is for | 18:57 |
| infid | totam: if windows is good for pro use then linux definitely is | 18:57 |
| candy | totam, its much better for students | 18:58 |
| mkanyicy | heoa, how do you know? | 18:58 |
| klaxian | mkanyicy: any idea how? i didn't see anything in Users/Groups | 18:58 |
| kanzie_ | anyone have any idea why my sound is stuttering? | 18:58 |
| pfifo | totam, sometimes windows and linux dont get along too well, but for the most part, its good for business enviroments | 18:58 |
| totam | infid: the problem that i hered that the corporations use windows more than unix | 18:58 |
| kanzie_ | should I switch to 32-bit Ubuntu? | 18:58 |
| mkanyicy | klaxian, i think I misunderstood you, probably 'no' | 18:58 |
| heoa | mkanyicy: because I know the process accessing the dir is Eclipse and I mistakenly left it running | 18:58 |
| infid | totam: corporations use linux for servers half the time, if not more | 18:58 |
| mkanyicy | klaxian, you can make a user that will log in automatically or after a delayed time | 18:59 |
| klaxian | mkanyicy: yah, that's not actually what i want | 18:59 |
| infid | totam: as far as work stations, they tend to use windows but only because they assume their users aren't that technical | 18:59 |
| actionparsnip | Totam: if you are researching then any OS is fine. If you require software which will only run on windows and is the main use of the system then windows is the better choice | 18:59 |
| candy | totam, soon the data are gonna change.. and its changing in fact | 18:59 |
| pfifo | heoa, cant you just reboot? | 18:59 |
| heoa | pfifo: no because I forgot the name of the comp | 18:59 |
| infid | totam: i would much rather use ubuntu at work than windows, as a programmer. i'd rarely hve to reboot too which would save me a lot of time. i've worked with XP, that was not fun | 18:59 |
| kraut | candy: what do you want?! | 18:59 |
| mkanyicy | heoa, is that computer using SSH to your computer? | 19:00 |
| theoo | i want to run gedit as root but not from console.. how to do that? | 19:00 |
| Flannel | theoo: alt-f2, `gksu gedit` | 19:00 |
| heoa | mkanyicy: yes, of course, but there are about 1K comps and I won't test all of them | 19:00 |
| mkanyicy | heoa, by the way you can reboot | 19:00 |
| bastid_raZor | theoo: alt+F2 then gksudo gedit | 19:00 |
| totam | ok thx for informations, I have also another question, why corporations wants java programmers now more than any languaage | 19:00 |
| nord | hello i have a little bit of a problem whit ubuntu hardy heron | 19:00 |
| nord | can somebody help me? | 19:00 |
| infid | totam: if you worked for a company that forces you to use windows, see if you can run linux from a virtual machine. give them reasons why it would make you more productive without making them learn linux to administer you | 19:00 |
| mkanyicy | heoa, then reboot | 19:01 |
| actionparsnip | Totam: its very portable | 19:01 |
| nord | can somebody help me? | 19:01 |
| mkanyicy | nord, yes | 19:01 |
| blakkheim | !ask | nord | 19:01 |
| ubottu | nord: 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. :-) | 19:01 |
| pfifo | !ask |nord | 19:01 |
| blakkheim | pfifo: too slow | 19:01 |
| theoo | can i disable the protection.. every time i run gedit from applications i want to be run as root? | 19:01 |
| kraut | candy: what's your problem? | 19:01 |
| infid | totam: that depends on the corp. huge ones sometimes want java because of 'enterprise' stuff. but startups and smaller corps often just want php, ruby, python.. | 19:01 |
| pfifo | its cause of my carpal tunnels | 19:01 |
| candy | i wanna disable my keyring password i dont know how to do... | 19:02 |
| nord | ok, i have installed hardy heron then i installed the ubuntu-desktop it works fine but i cant play any song i have a intel mother board 945pvs | 19:02 |
| heoa | mkanyicy: ? no physical access, no name, just the same LAN -- with too many similar comps in SSH | 19:02 |
| candy | kraut, i dont know how to disable keyring password | 19:02 |
| actionparsnip | Theoo: you can add an extra item in the menu to run gksudo gedit and have the current on to run as user. Always running gedit with gksudo is a bad odea | 19:02 |
| candy | kraut, can u help me | 19:02 |
| Flannel | theoo: You really don't want that. It might seem like you need to be root a lot right now, but once you've had your system for a few weeks, you won't need it anywhere near as much | 19:02 |
| totam | infid: php ? but php is just for web | 19:02 |
| kraut | candy: no | 19:02 |
| mkanyicy | theoo, you dont have to do that, use gksudo when necessary | 19:02 |
| coz_ | nord, wait...you installed hardy and then installed ubuntu-desktop?? that was already installed | 19:02 |
| blakkheim | nord: you got the restricted extras? | 19:02 |
| blakkheim | coz_: would have been a minimal iso | 19:03 |
| nord | no | 19:03 |
| blakkheim | nord: sudo aptitude install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 19:03 |
| coz_ | blakkheim, ah ok | 19:03 |
| infid | totam: it's not just for web, but realistically it is. but anyway there's perl if it's not just for web | 19:03 |
| Xfact | I have just switched to OpenDNS and a IP address updater client which helps to get batter accessibility, has only some source codes for linux, we have to compile it ourselves, (but I am newbie...) anyone has done that or help about it? for more info and codes http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/ddclient/wiki | 19:03 |
| nord | i instaled hardy heron server (LTS) then apt-get install ubuntu-desktop and my sond doesnt work :) | 19:03 |
| kraut | is the ubuntu generic-kernel rebooting per default after a panic? | 19:03 |
| blakkheim | Xfact: ddclient is in the ubuntu repos bro | 19:03 |
| Xfact | thanks :) | 19:04 |
| blakkheim | nord: did you install the alsa stuff? | 19:04 |
| Scorpion | hello | 19:04 |
| nord | yes it's sayng that i have the latest version | 19:04 |
| sebsebseb | Hi | 19:04 |
| mkanyicy | heoa, where is this 'mysterical' directory then? | 19:04 |
| blakkheim | nord: check the levels in alsamixer, but make suer you have the codec to play whatever file it is | 19:04 |
| infid | how can i rsync files to /backups if i can't rsync file root@IP:/backups on ubuntu because the root account is disabled by default? | 19:04 |
| Flannel | nord: Try installing linux-generic (the generic kernel) and switching to it (instead of the server kernel) | 19:05 |
| blakkheim | infid: you could, you know, enable the root account | 19:05 |
| sebsebseb | When certain stuff is owned by root in home, what's the command to have it all owned by the user? | 19:05 |
| infid | blakkheim: how | 19:05 |
| blakkheim | infid: but i'm sure someone will flip out at the thought of using the super scary root account on ubuntu | 19:05 |
| blakkheim | infid: sudo passwd root | 19:05 |
| mkanyicy | by the way, heoa, you are a bit vague. you never described the nature of your problem. what you want to achieve and what is stopping you from achieving it. explain more. | 19:05 |
| mylove | hello every body | 19:05 |
| candy | tha packet might be corrupted or you are not allowed to open it: i got this error aftr downloadin skype while trying to install | 19:05 |
| candy | what to do | 19:05 |
| candy | ? | 19:05 |
| Flannel | blakkheim: Please don't recommend that here. | 19:05 |
| infid | blakkheim: well is there a better alternative | 19:05 |
| Scorpion | in ubuntu 8.04 I set up vpn connection http://ubuntologia.ru/vpn | 19:05 |
| blakkheim | Flannel: i was only answering his question, not recommending anything | 19:05 |
| pfifo | sebsebseb, chown -R <user>:<group> /path/to/home | 19:05 |
| nord | i ll try ti install restricted extras | 19:06 |
| Flannel | blakkheim: There are better ways of answering that question. | 19:06 |
| nord | i dont want the normal kerner i need the server one | 19:06 |
| heoa | mkanyicy: to start Eclipse, to access my workspace but other eclipse is using it | 19:06 |
| blakkheim | Flannel: ok. he wants to enable the root account, what is a better answer (without telling him to do something else)? | 19:06 |
| Flannel | nord: Why do you need the server one? | 19:06 |
| Flannel | blakkheim: No, he needs to rsync some stuff somewhere, he doesn't need to be root. | 19:07 |
| nord | counter strike server and mysql php fore some projects | 19:07 |
| candy | i got this error aftr downloadin skype while trying to install | 19:07 |
| candy | what to do....tha packet might be corrupted or you are not allowed to open it | 19:07 |
| mkanyicy | heoa, reboot YOUR pc | 19:07 |
| Flannel | nord: I don't think the server kernel would be required for those | 19:07 |
| mkanyicy | heoa, forget about a thousand computers on the network | 19:07 |
| Scorpion | I can't? | 19:07 |
| nord | i want to lear dealing whit linux at a hy level | 19:07 |
| dl0c | is it possible to setup a folder in ubuntu (OVH Server) so i can use as a samba share to xbmc on my home internet? | 19:07 |
| infid | Flannel: so do you know how to do it | 19:07 |
| Flannel | nord: the server kernel won't help you do that. Try switching to generic, see if it helps. | 19:08 |
| sebsebseb | pfifo: well the user account gets a group named after it. So uhmm chown -R username username /home/username ? (and no it's not called username, just using as example) | 19:08 |
| Flannel | infid: couldn't you just give your rsync user perimssion to write to /backups? | 19:08 |
| nord | so.. that means i cant make my sound card work? | 19:08 |
| nord | i finishe instaling restricted | 19:08 |
| infid | Flannel: good point i'll try it | 19:09 |
| nord | what can i do now? | 19:09 |
| Flannel | nord: No, it means you should try the generic kernel. server kernel has a lot of hardware that it never expects to interface with removed so it can run better | 19:09 |
| totam | in my school, i must choose between 2 choice, I hesitate between computer science and statistics. can you help me [excuse me for this question that have no relation with ubuntu] | 19:09 |
| Flannel | totam: #ubuntu-offtopic would be the place to ask | 19:09 |
| pfifo | sebsebseb, i sometimes have to 'chown -R pfifo:pfifo /home/pfifo' | 19:09 |
| candy | anybody help with skype installation???????? | 19:09 |
| nord | can i make my sound card work on hardy heron | 19:09 |
| totam | Flannel: thank you, is it a channel ? | 19:09 |
| Flannel | nord: Try the generic kernel | 19:09 |
| Flannel | totam: Yeah, /join #ubuntu-offtopic | 19:10 |
| nexus_ | Is there any iPhone software for linux | 19:10 |
| totam | Flannel: thanks again, bye | 19:10 |
| nord | i want this one, is there a way to make it word? | 19:10 |
| mkanyicy | sebsebseb, the command pfifo just gave you should be sufficient to do the job (with sudo of course) | 19:10 |
| nord | work* | 19:10 |
| PingFloyd | you want a kernel that doesn't apply to your hardware lol | 19:10 |
| nord | so.. can it be done? | 19:11 |
| dhastha | candy: do u need how to install skype? | 19:11 |
| PingFloyd | nord: yeah | 19:11 |
| Flannel | nord: Just knowing whether the generic kernel works will help answer that question. | 19:11 |
| PingFloyd | nord: you can recompile it | 19:11 |
| PingFloyd | nord: why don't you follow the advice given and try the generic kernel | 19:11 |
| nord | my sound card works under ubuntu 9.10 desktop | 19:11 |
| candy | dhastha, i downloaded it but got error msg while installing it | 19:11 |
| nord | my sound card works under ubuntu 9.10 desktop | 19:11 |
| nord | i want a server kernel to learn lunux | 19:12 |
| nord | not a pretty desktop | 19:12 |
| candy | dhastha, it says the packet might be corrpted or u r not allowed to open it, | 19:12 |
| sebsebseb | pfifo: bingo that looks like what I am after. Most files are fine, but what I moved into home isn't. Anyway thanks | 19:12 |
| mkanyicy | pfifo, sebsebseb, FYI: its not required to specified the group with chown if the group is the primary group of the user but a colon is necessary like 'sudo chown -R mkanyicy: /home/mkanyicy' | 19:12 |
| infid | Flannel: it worked! thanks | 19:12 |
| snarkster | if i wanted to rsync a buncha files to a smbshare do i have to mount the share or can i just use rsync -av /music //server/share? | 19:12 |
| PingFloyd | nord: the buzzword "desktop" has nothing to do with it | 19:12 |
| Slart | nord: the kernel itself won't make a difference for you.. it's mostly just different optimizations.. you can still do all the server related stuff with the generic desktop kernel | 19:12 |
| Flannel | nord: The kernel has *absolutely* nothing to do with that. You won't learn linux faster/better with the server kernel, nor does the generic kernel require you to have a pretty desktop | 19:12 |
| dhastha | candy: which distribution u r using? in ubuntu 9.10 its working | 19:12 |
| infid | blakkheim: thanks for trying to help. i guess we both learned something | 19:13 |
| PingFloyd | nord: kernels having nothing to do with "desktop" | 19:13 |
| nord | so whi a server edition if it s the same? | 19:13 |
| PingFloyd | nord: they have to do with providing support for hardware | 19:13 |
| pfifo | nord, all linux kernels are the same | 19:13 |
| mkanyicy | sebsebseb, is your prob solven then? | 19:13 |
| candy | dhastha, i m usning that only | 19:13 |
| Slart | nord: you can do the same stuff with a server install that you can do with a desktop install.. the difference is the kernel and that the server version doesn't come with gnome by default | 19:14 |
| nord | i just want to make my sound card word, is that so hard for you ti do? | 19:14 |
| dhastha | candy: install through terminal. sudo apt-get install skype | 19:14 |
| sebsebseb | mkanyicy: well for files I copied in, it's root for both owner and group, since the way I did it. | 19:14 |
| EPAstor | nord: The server kernel is optimized for server performance. So things like a high-end web site will run *slightly* better on the server kernel - but day-to-day use (and anything you're going to notice) is identical to the desktop version. | 19:14 |
| mkanyicy | sebsebseb, ok | 19:14 |
| dhastha | candy: then u need to update ur system | 19:14 |
| sebsebseb | mkanyicy: I think the command I was given will solve it, but need to be on the other computer again to find out | 19:14 |
| candy | dhastha, how to update?/ | 19:14 |
| nord | but is ther a way to make my sound card work under server kernel or not? | 19:14 |
| nord | that s all i'm asking | 19:15 |
| candy | dhastha, nothing came with that apt-get | 19:15 |
| pfifo | nord, if you want to learn linux in depth, http://www.linuxfromscratch.org | 19:15 |
| mkanyicy | nord, LOL, from ubuntu-restricted-extras to mysql and php all the way to kernels and then soundcards | 19:15 |
| diablo-sg_ | hey people :) | 19:15 |
| Flannel | nord: Probably. | 19:15 |
| === maveas_ is now known as maveas | ||
| erUSUL | nord: why would a server kernel support sound cards ? | 19:15 |
| zouhair | hi | 19:15 |
| EPAstor | nord: Probably not. The server kernel omits the drivers that aren't needed for servers... sound cards are generally a desktop feature | 19:15 |
| diablo-sg_ | im kinda new to linux | 19:15 |
| EPAstor | diablo-sg_: Well, welcome! | 19:15 |
| zleap | diablo-sg_, thats ok | 19:15 |
| Flannel | nord: But it very likely would require you to recompile | 19:15 |
| zleap | well come to ubuntu | 19:15 |
| nord | because i like to listen to music . | 19:15 |
| diablo-sg_ | thabks :) | 19:15 |
| nord | i understand | 19:16 |
| PingFloyd | nord: do you know what a server is? | 19:16 |
| EPAstor | nord: Then you're using a computer in the way designed for the generic kernel. | 19:16 |
| Flannel | nord: Switch to the generic kernel | 19:16 |
| diablo-sg_ | installed on my lenovo x61 | 19:16 |
| dhastha | candy: do u have ubuntu tweak? | 19:16 |
| nord | no i'll find a way to make it work | 19:16 |
| elro | Hi, I'm trying to put all of my configuration into a deployment script (I'm using Amazon's ec2). I want to enable unattended-upgrades, but I can't work out if it will actually be enabled when I do "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow -fnoninteractive unattended-upgrades" - the default answer to the "enable" question is no. | 19:16 |
| nord | thank you for all advices | 19:16 |
| Oddtod | hello, I plugged in a harddrive today(external) and ubuntu automatically popped up an application with a harddrive diagnostic it said that the drive had many bad sectors. I was wondering what this program was called. I am testing about 15 old drives and wanted to have this software look at them all. | 19:16 |
| EPAstor | nord: The only way to make it work is a full recompile of the kernel, which is very involved and Ubuntu isn't really designed to make easy. You might want to try the linuxfromscratch link | 19:16 |
| candy | dhastha, no whats that?? where to get it | 19:16 |
| nord | i ll se in other chats forums it must be a way to make it work | 19:17 |
| diablo-sg_ | i think i screwed my ext4 partition | 19:17 |
| nord | it's intel there must be something | 19:17 |
| sebsebseb | mkanyicy: pfifo I have used chmod before to change permissions on other home's, but then forgotton how to use the command etc. Did Google searches before asking on IRC. Anyway thanks | 19:17 |
| EPAstor | nord: There is a way to make it work - but it's very very complicated. If you insist on trying, good luck! But another distribution might be better suited to your needs. | 19:18 |
| zouhair | how i can install java for firefox | 19:18 |
| diablo-sg_ | cant seem to resize the extended partition :( | 19:18 |

| kraut | is the ubuntu generic-kernel rebooting per default after a panic? | 19:19 |
| EPAstor | Oddtod: The program that popped up is the Disk Utility. You can get to it via System -> Administration -> Disk Utility... it gives you access to all of the drive health data. | 19:19 |
| mkanyicy | diablo-sg_, what tool are you using? gparted? | 19:19 |
| Pelias | how to pass variables as aruments? | 19:19 |
| diablo-sg_ | need help here :( | 19:19 |
| dhastha | candy: visit that page u will get about ubuntu tweak.... then u can install lots of application through tat tool | 19:19 |
| candy | dhastha, ok i ll download. then wht to do with that? | 19:19 |
| pfifo | Pelias, explain a little more | 19:19 |
| Oddtod | EPSstor: thank you very much this seemed to be helpful not as helpful as spinrite but spinrite also takes a lot longer to process each drive. for a quick look over this software will do great | 19:20 |
| EPAstor | diablo-sg_: What are you using when you try to resize the partition? | 19:20 |

| Y-uve | I've got a question. I have a shell that runs eggdrops. How to kill all there processes at once (eggdrops.conf) | 19:21 |
| Y-uve | kill -9 what | 19:21 |
| EPAstor | Oddtod: That's exactly right - SpinRite actually does intensive diagnostics, Disk Utility just asks the drive what it knows about its own health. So for a quick once-over, Disk Utility is what you want - SpinRite helps if there's an issue the drive can't find on its own. | 19:21 |
| mkanyicy | Pelias, in bash, python, perl, php, c++, java or what? | 19:21 |

| impostoor9 | just go to software center in applications and go to internet tab | 19:24 |
| Jeruvy | seanbrystone: make sure you download the right one. | 19:25 |

| Adnyxo | is there any way to treat both monitors in twinview (nvidia) as one and have the same taskbar go across both of them? | 19:25 |
| pfifo | Pelias, you should be able to 'command --switch=$VARIABLE' | 19:26 |
| mkanyicy | seanbrystone, google '+comprehensive +multimedia +howto' and get an ubuntuforums.org entry | 19:26 |
| garymc | yep im totally lost with this email server stuff, maybe time to jack it in | 19:26 |
| seanbrystone | Jeruvy, from adobe's site you cannot choose 64 bit or 32 bit, if you can, im not seeing where to select that option | 19:26 |

| sebsebseb | pfifo: mkanyicy hrm just thought of something, I want the user account to own all of it's home, however that account does not have sudo/root access, so if I run the command in the account that does would that effect things some how? | 19:27 |
| sebsebseb | pfifo: mkanyicy I could give it sudo/root/admin temporiley | 19:27 |

| mkanyicy | sebsebseb, you dont have to do that | 19:28 |
| Pelias | pfifo: Nope, won't work:/ | 19:28 |
| Pelias | I think it's ash actually | 19:28 |
| xamelena | hi | 19:28 |
| pfifo | sebsebseb, youll need to run chown as root, but the account your changing ownership to dose not need root access | 19:28 |
| mkanyicy | sebsebseb, login as the user that has root priviledges and the do a 'sudo su' and then proceed with that chown command | 19:28 |
| xamelena | one quick question - i can`t replace file - /etc/init.d/fancotrol when i try - permission denied | 19:28 |
| Pelias | hmm | 19:29 |
| sebsebseb | mkanyicy: ah right yeah of course, I can log in as root on the shell | 19:29 |
| xamelena | any ideas what to do...? | 19:29 |
| seanbrystone | ok i downloaded libflashplayer.so where do i put that file? | 19:29 |
| jpds | seanbrystone: ~/.mozilla/plugins/ | 19:30 |
| pfifo | Pelias, maybe try 'command --switch=`echo $VARIABLE`' notice the backticks | 19:30 |
| === tjibba is now known as Tjibba | ||
| mkanyicy | Pelias why do you think it wont work? | 19:30 |
| seanbrystone | jpds, ty | 19:30 |
| Pelias | I see where the problem is - IP doesn't have ip address in it, but a command that returns ip address | 19:30 |
| sebsebseb | mkanyicy: pfifo ok thanks again | 19:30 |
| LinnuxLearner | I just installed ubuntu and I cannot get my system to boot off the harddrive. | 19:30 |

| CrashOverride | Why does Ubuntu rip the source code off Debian | 19:32 |
| IdleOne | Pelias: please keep the language clean. | 19:32 |
| CrashOverride | Make your own kernel for god sakes | 19:32 |
| blakkheim | CrashOverride: lol | 19:32 |
| pfifo | Pelias, can you pastebin the script or shell that your having the trouble with | 19:32 |
| sebsebseb | CrashOverride: uhmm none of the distros have made the Linux kernel | 19:32 |
| IdleOne | CrashOverride: Debian is open source. nobody is ripping it off | 19:32 |
| CrashOverride | Ubuntu == noobs who steal stuff | 19:32 |
| CrashOverride | I dont care | 19:32 |
| CrashOverride | Your taking credit | 19:32 |

| LinnuxLearner | It boots off the cd fine | 19:33 |
| sebsebseb | !debian | CrashOverride | 19:33 |
| ubottu | CrashOverride: Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu! | 19:33 |
| CrashOverride | yah I know | 19:33 |
| CrashOverride | wait | 19:33 |
| LinnuxLearner | Once i have booted i can warm boot off the harddrive | 19:33 |
| CrashOverride | so you credit them? | 19:33 |
| LinnuxLearner | I just can't get a good cold boot | 19:33 |
| CrashOverride | or do you just say you made it all | 19:33 |
| seanbrystone | Ok i cant seem to get flash working in 64 bit ubuntu, i downloaded the libflashplayer.so put it in ~.mozilla/extensions folder there is NO ~.mozilla/plugins folder | 19:33 |
| CrashOverride | If you credit them then that is fine | 19:33 |
| LinnuxLearner | I think i turned the bootlog on | 19:33 |

| LordofKings | CrashOverride: no virtualbox | 19:36 |
| LinnuxLearner | can someone just tell me what files linnux uses during startup so I can start troubleshooting | 19:37 |
| CrashOverride | LordofKings: VmWare Workstation 7 works great with running Ubuntu in Windows | 19:37 |
| LinnuxLearner | I would like to compare files on the bootable cd to the ones on the harddrive | 19:37 |
| Pelias | mkanyicy: check pastebin | 19:37 |
| LinnuxLearner | since the cd boots fine | 19:37 |
| pfifo | Pelias, to set a variable you omit the $, ex 'ip1=192.168.2.1' | 19:37 |
| CrashOverride | LordofKings: I haven't ever used virtualbox before but you might want to look into VMWare | 19:37 |
| LordofKings | CrashOverride: ya..but i see it a bit eating away my RAM | 19:37 |
| Adnyxo | pfifo: i cant find it, what would it be under | 19:37 |
| LordofKings | CrashOverride: also its not for free. | 19:37 |
| CrashOverride | LordofKings: What one? VmWare? | 19:37 |

| danub | LordofKings: yeah it is. get vmware server 2, its free | 19:38 |
| pfifo | Adnyxo, x server display configuration | 19:38 |
| LordofKings | CrashOverride: if u know smth like teamviewer i can give control of pc | 19:38 |
| CrashOverride | LordofKings: You could install Ubuntu inside Windows by putting the disk in while windows is open | 19:38 |
| danub | LordofKings: and yes, it does cause a memory leak, but a reboot of the guest machine clears it out | 19:38 |
| LordofKings | CrashOverride: so that u can see by uerself | 19:38 |

| sebsebseb | mkanyicy: well seems chown is the way to go, so the files become owned by the user account instead of root | 19:47 |
| CrashOverride | mkanyicy: Easiest way to use chown in the terminal is to use terminal to enter the directory and type: sudo chown -R user:user | 19:48 |
| mkanyicy | CrashOverride, I am an expert in linux, i know all about that | 19:49 |

| CrashOverride | Well I just like Ubuntu the best | 19:53 |
| danub | dustybin: if you like the apt style installs, debian will work. fedora has a good community base/support, gentoo if you like to compile everything and are an expert | 19:53 |
| CrashOverride | ^_^ | 19:53 |
| mkanyicy | nytek_, what do you mean by windows programming? | 19:53 |
| nytek_ | mkanyicy: i dont know many expert unix users | 19:53 |
| mobius2 | danub my ubuntu kernel version is 2.6.31-17-generic and I recently installed libopenal0a for the purpose of making a video game work. When I installed libopenal0a | 19:53 |

| dhastha | is there any way to record conversation in skype? | 19:54 |
| mkanyicy | nytek_, no i am not into windows | 19:54 |

| usser | Magestik, something like cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep -i manufacturer should do it | 20:25 |
| mkanyicy | christian_, and then ALT+F2 then type 'ccsm' | 20:25 |
| Magestik | like a shell command ? | 20:25 |

| Z_God | gagaZR: run alsamixer in a terminal & check the volume settings | 20:26 |
| bredoto | As for me 9.10 is not stable version! There are a lot of problems! | 20:26 |
| gagaZR | Z_God: When I try running alsamixer, no alsamixer... | 20:26 |
| usser | gagaZR, did you upgrade to a new version ie 9.10? | 20:26 |
| blakkheim | usser: why cat file | grep string when you can just grep string file | 20:26 |

| Anstice | Does anyone know how I can make a usb XP install disk in Ubuntu? I've tried unetbootin but it doesn't work. | 20:28 |
| Zteam | Hello | 20:28 |
| blakkheim | gagaZR: with a regular ubuntu desktop/usb drive, reformat and reinstall the latest version, might be a better option | 20:28 |
| Zteam | is there anyone who have tried to use www.icefilms.info on ubuntu? | 20:28 |
| mkanyicy | Zteam, no one tried that | 20:29 |
| gagaZR | Z_God: I have alsa-utils installed | 20:29 |
| danub | Anstice: never tried to make a usb windows install disk. | 20:29 |
| Z_God | gagaZR: what does alsamixer show? | 20:29 |
| mkanyicy | Anstice, not sure if that can work imo | 20:30 |
| Zteam | mkanyicy: is it forbidden to discuss that site here? | 20:30 |
| Zteam | :) | 20:30 |
| meowkbuntu | i have an error when booting. something about a sertian drive in fstab no being able to mount and i can only get into recovery mode desktop. what i need to know is where i can find teh boot error and tehn what i need to fix | 20:30 |
| mkanyicy | Zteam, its not | 20:30 |
| meowkbuntu | :( | 20:30 |
| * meowkbuntu is sad | 20:30 | |
| mkanyicy | Zteam, its just no one tried that | 20:30 |
| gagaZR | Z_God: It simply does not start... Saying: alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory | 20:30 |
| danub | meowkbuntu: you need to edit the fstab file and comment out the offending drive | 20:30 |
| Anstice | danub: There's a couple of tools do it but they all require a windows environment to use. | 20:30 |
| === ck is now known as Guest13840 | ||
| Z_God | gagaZR: can you PM me the output of lspci & lsmod? | 20:31 |
| meowkbuntu | danub: yes i do but i need the error log file first to know what file it is | 20:31 |
| Zteam | mkanyicy: okey, because whenever i try to watch a movie on that site, all my colors become strange, for every other movie i try to play, even those who work before i use that site.... | 20:31 |
| danub | Anstice: never tried to do it :D | 20:31 |
| Z_God | or use smth like pastebin | 20:31 |
| danub | meowkbuntu: look for it in your messages file | 20:31 |
| gagaZR | Z_God: Sorry, how to PM? | 20:31 |
| Z_God | use /msg | 20:31 |
| danub | /var/log/messages | 20:31 |
| airtonix | Z_God, private messaging information precludes others from assisting. | 20:31 |
| meowkbuntu | dan that great. where is it ????? | 20:32 |
| Anstice | mkanyicy: I didn't think it could either. | 20:32 |
| mkanyicy | Zteam, but we are doing an ubuntu support not icefilms support | 20:32 |
| Z_God | gagaZR: as airtonix says, maybe pastebin is better | 20:32 |
| will_ | hey guys. is there any sort of linux stress tester for graphics cards? preferably one i can download and run in ubuntu | 20:32 |
| hajmola | is there a way to make evolution like gmail in that the newest threads come to the top? | 20:32 |
| jcdutton | Zteam, which site shows the problems you are having? | 20:32 |
| airtonix | will_, yes but it is around 6gb in size | 20:33 |
| gagaZR | Z_God: Ok, how to pastebin?! Sorry! | 20:33 |
| danub | will, sure, turn everything on in compiz ;) (just playing) give me a sec, i will check | 20:33 |
| Zteam | mkanyicy: well, apparently, it's something about my system if a movie can make all my colors strange on movies i already do have on my harddrive | 20:33 |
| Zteam | ? | 20:33 |
| shovon | hey I need help booting a patched kernel I installed. | 20:33 |

| Z_God | gagaZR: topic ;) | 20:33 |
| usser | will_, run phoronix test suite | 20:33 |
| airtonix | will_, you will find it on sourceforge... name escapes me but it deals with UT3 | 20:33 |
| Zteam | jcdutton: icefilms.info I guess I have some sort of codec-conflict or something? | 20:33 |
| will_ | usser: good point, that'll probably be smaller than the UT3 thing | 20:34 |
| jcdutton | Zteam, any particular film ? | 20:34 |
| meowkbuntu | danub: nothing in there. how do find out whats mounted | 20:34 |
| usser | will_, Quake Wars test on high should do it | 20:34 |
| danub | meowkbuntu: type 'mount' | 20:34 |
| Zteam | jcdutton: every film on the site | 20:34 |
| danub | it will tell you what is currently mounted | 20:34 |
| jcdutton | The site is down | 20:34 |
| Freeaqingme | Is the nfs userspace server stable these days? | 20:34 |
| danub | then you can match that againsts your /etc/fstab | 20:34 |
| Zteam | jcdutton: all films i'm having on my harddrive works fine | 20:34 |
| airtonix | will_, i assume you want something like 3dmark? | 20:34 |
| will_ | usser and airtonix: thanks for your help, i'll get testing :P | 20:35 |

| airtonix | !ics | SamPeterson | 20:51 |
| Z_God | meowkbuntu: the driver doesn't load however, because his kernel module versions somehow don't match each other | 20:51 |

| meowkbuntu | Z_God: then he should google for it | 20:52 |

| meowkbuntu | so you get my name right and others | 20:55 |
| Z_God | gagaZR: that's why booting an older kernel or reinstalling your current kernel package will probably fix it | 20:55 |

| Ganang | hey question is there anyway to change automatically the linebreak from windows to linux like a command! I am working with a file which someone was editing in windows, and now i have no breaklines! could someone help with that | 20:58 |
| gagaZR | meowkbuntu: From a large sales... With Ubuntu preinstalled | 20:59 |
| danub | meowkbuntu: was there anything about your message you can remember? | 20:59 |
| meowkbuntu | danub: i'm still stuck with my mount issues | 20:59 |
| hackNslash | anyone? | 20:59 |
| hackNslash | help me | 20:59 |
| alabd_ | usser: in command find how to set it serach hidden files too | 20:59 |
| pershian007 | hackNslash ask! | 20:59 |
| un214 | can't find harddrive! | 20:59 |
| eliaz | dos2unix | 20:59 |
| un214 | wow that's tough | 20:59 |
| hackNslash | 22:46 | 20:59 |
| hackNslash | <hackNslash> why my ubuntu installer can't find my harddrive parts? | 20:59 |
| usser | alabd_, it does it by default | 21:00 |
| danub | ganang, i dont know exactly what the command is, but I know there is a perl 1 liner that will do it. google 'remove windows linebreaks perl' | 21:00 |
| llutz | alabd_: -name .* | 21:00 |
| herbero | 21:00 | |
| eliaz | dos2unix converts to unixlike linebreaks | 21:00 |
| alabd_ | usser: maybe recovery app can resotre it | 21:00 |
| usser | alabd_, ie find / -iname "*blah*" | 21:00 |
| eliaz | and unix2dos works the other way | 21:00 |
| hackNslash | pershian007, why my ubuntu installer can't find my harddrive parts? | 21:00 |
| alabd_ | usser: will that search on remote host also ? | 21:00 |
| ZykoticK9 | Ganang, see the program "tofrodos" which includes dos2unix as eliaz pointed out | 21:00 |
| usser | alabd_, no | 21:00 |
| Iimitk | hello all. funny question. what does that font technique in ubuntu and unix OSes that makes fonts so clear? | 21:01 |
| fbesoain | \server irc.gimp.org | 21:01 |
| danub | hackNslash: you might be going through a controller (jmicron or some other fake raid) that is improperly configured | 21:01 |
| fbesoain | \server irc.freenode.org | 21:01 |
| garymc | anyone know how I make dovecot-postfix use a differnt port to 2000 | 21:01 |
| garymc | ? | 21:01 |
| Ganang | danub: by doing it , replaces with the linux one or removes? | 21:01 |
| usser | alabd_, the way those remote locations are mount are gnome-specific they are not on a real local filesystem | 21:01 |
| garymc | As 2000 is already bieing used | 21:01 |
| danub | meowkbuntu: you might find a message in your syslog | 21:01 |
| meowkbuntu | gagaZR: well then take it back and give them the info that tells its got teh kernel issues and ask them to fix it its under warenty right | 21:01 |
| un214 | they call it cleartype and I always turn it off as it annoys the heck out of me | 21:01 |
| usser | alabd_, you can use sshfs to Actually mount the remote location | 21:01 |
| meowkbuntu | dan where ????? | 21:01 |
| danub | it removes all the ^M's you will see | 21:01 |
| llutz | garymc: they shouldn't use 2000 at all | 21:01 |
| meowkbuntu | ^ danub | 21:01 |
| danub | /var/log/syslog | 21:01 |
| hackNslash | darn this is so hard | 21:02 |
| garymc | llutz inetd is using it for my LTSP server | 21:02 |
| llutz | garymc: check /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf /etc/postfix/main.cf | 21:02 |
| alabd_ | how to use sshfs usser ? | 21:02 |
| danub | Ganang: try the dos2unix thing eliaz said. it might do it too | 21:02 |
| fbesoain | gimp.org | 21:02 |
| usser | alabd_, as you would use any mount command. mount -t sshfs 192.168.1.100:/home/me /mnt | 21:03 |
| ldleworker | Hi I am running 9.10 and my ATI Graphics card a ATI Technologies Inc RV350 AP [Radeon 9600] isn't working. Can anyone help me get this puppy running? | 21:03 |

| === yofel_ is now known as xyofel | ||
| danub | easier to keep track of all of you then :P | 21:03 |
| alabd_ | usser: why can not we use recovery ? | 21:03 |
| llutz | garymc: look for managesieve | 21:04 |
| usser | alabd_, sshfs user@192.168.1.100:/home /mountpoint | 21:04 |
| usser | alabd_, i've never used any recovery software on linux | 21:05 |

| kholby | I'm using a broadcom wireless card with the STA driver. Anytime I try to download anything, everything starts out fine, but after about 30 seconds or so to download rate drops to 0. This happens on any network I connect to. Anyone else had this problem? | 21:05 |
| eliaz | kholby - u using N? | 21:06 |
| kholby | eliaz: Not sure what you mean. I'm not using ndiswrapper, if that's what you're referring to. | 21:07 |
| alabd_ | thanks usser | 21:07 |
| teage | has anyone had any problems with aptoncd in kde jaunty | 21:07 |
| eliaz | your router probably has the 802.11 a/b/g standard, and might have N - this is the fastes wireless standard | 21:07 |
| danub | i think eliaz might be referring to the n standard | 21:08 |
| danub | yep | 21:08 |
| kholby | Oh duh. Well, it happens across any network I use. | 21:08 |
| eliaz | linux sta driver has support for it | 21:08 |
| teage | u have a fix for it if you like | 21:08 |
| teage | *i have* | 21:09 |

| teage | mac9416:where? | 21:10 |
| eliaz | kholby, ok probably not n-related then. Many wireless-N routers are f*cked though | 21:10 |

| jolaren | I have followed this guide to install mythtvfrontend according to this guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV/Install/Server/Frontend.But when I start gdm I get "Could not update ICEAuthority file /home/jolaren/.ICEAuthority". Then after that "There is a problem with the configuration server. (/usr/lib/libgconf2-4/gconf-sanity-check-2 exited with statis 256). After that the mouse is standing still in the middl | 21:13 |

| greezmunkey | sliaz: check out DAP-2590, (nice!) | 21:13 |
| eliaz | kholby - I would install wireshark and record the session and try to figure out what happens when speed drops | 21:13 |
| eliaz | does wireshark work with wireless cards? | 21:14 |
| kholby | I think it does. I'll find out. | 21:14 |

| meowagi | judo apt-get karate | 21:15 |
| hajmola | sixtila, that happened to me once, i think i hit something like "check ipod's files" or something to that effect and then it worked? | 21:16 |
| eliaz | greezm - dap2950 looks cool, u know if its the same kind of firmware as dlink655? I think its awesome. Problem is that the firmware is developed by a norwegian company , and dlink says they are not going to work with them anymore....this means dlink will go back to making crappy stuff again | 21:17 |
| kholby | I know that the hard drive in this laptop is failing, I just don't have the money to get a new one right now. It's caused a good bit of problems for me, but it shouldn't have anything to do with this, should it? | 21:17 |
| toga | knolby and eliaz: my experience is that its driver and distribution related | 21:17 |
| kholby | toga: I can't seem to get any of the other drivers to work with it, though. Everything else I've tried gives me problems. | 21:18 |
| toga | it never dropped in 8.04/10 | 21:18 |
| toga | it startet with 9.04 and continous in 9.10 | 21:18 |

| lahmas | Hey! I'm a developer yet still new to Linux.. Unlike most others, I like working with the command line - Which options do I have on linux in general concerning the command line in general? What does it have what Windows doesn't? | 21:21 |
| ldleworker | So it would appear that my Radeon 9800 is ENTIRELY incompatible with the XORG version in Karmic. Is there away to do a major revision update from Karmic to whatever the next one is? Does anyone know if ATI compatibility was restored? | 21:21 |

| usser | shane2peru, its actually in the repositories nowadays | 21:31 |
| hajmola | pub, basic questions are all available on the ubuntu forums | 21:32 |
| sudipta | nytek_:yes | 21:32 |
| nytek_ | sudipta: when you try to switch to use desktop effects, what does it do? | 21:32 |
| pub | Thanks Haj, maybe they arent so basic then. I have been looking int he forums and not having much luck. | 21:32 |
| hackNslash | who was in my pm??? | 21:32 |
| shane2peru | usser, It has been in the repos for years, at least ddclient has, is there a new name? and how would I edit the time frame that it updates? | 21:32 |
| hackNslash | cant remember anymore | 21:33 |
| hajmola | pub, then ask us here! :) | 21:33 |
| PingFloyd | pub: maybe you should try asking your question in here | 21:33 |
| sudipta | nytek_:"Desktop Effect Could not be enabled" messege is popped | 21:33 |
| pub | Alright. are tar z files basically the same as a Zip file? | 21:34 |
| PingFloyd | same concept, but totally different format | 21:34 |
| nytek_ | pub: when is the last time you updated ubuntu? | 21:34 |
| pub | ok. | 21:34 |
| hackNslash | HELP | 21:34 |
| nytek_ | pub: sorry, wrong person | 21:34 |
| usser | shane2peru, i think it only updates when your ip changes | 21:34 |
| pub | np | 21:34 |
| nytek_ | sudipta: when is the last time you updated ubuntu | 21:35 |
| PingFloyd | pub: Z file is the type of compression, tar is an archiving format | 21:35 |
| arand | pub: tar archives multiple files, gzip compresses, hence .tar.gz afaik. | 21:35 |
| mad_hatter | pub: answers tobasic questions can also be found in the official documentation. you can find a link to it on the main ubuntu website. | 21:35 |

| hajmola | sudipta, so you have the nvidia driver running, but when you try to enable desktop effects what happens? | 21:48 |
| nytek_ | iWolf: i doubt they wont, do some research first though. but, i dont think you will have a problem | 21:48 |
| gablin | Hello. I need some help with a rather peculiar problem I've just encountered. I'm unable to connect to any wireless networks. The driver is installed and everything, and I can even see other people's networks; I just can't connect. The "connect" button is greyed out! =/ | 21:48 |
| MindVirus | airtonix: I did, but Banshee isn't one of the things I can select. | 21:48 |
| Billiard | jenia: fix them? what is the prob? | 21:48 |
| Carlis | What do i do ? RodgerKyle | 21:48 |
| airtonix | MindVirus, it is for me | 21:48 |
| sudipta | Hajmola:"Desktop Effect Could not be enabled" messege is popped | 21:48 |
| MindVirus | airtonix: Do you know why? | 21:48 |
| gablin | Btw, it has worked perfectly for several weeks. And now it just stopped working. I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 (I think). | 21:49 |
| kholby | gablin, What is your wireless card? | 21:49 |
| od3n | is there something I need to install | 21:49 |
| jenia | it bugs | 21:49 |
| airtonix | MindVirus, did you originally mention which version of ubuntu you have and where you obtained banshee from ? | 21:49 |
| jenia | when i restart | 21:49 |
| jenia | it either doesnt boot | 21:49 |
| airtonix | !enter | jenia | 21:49 |
| ubottu | jenia: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 21:49 |
| MindVirus | airtonix: No. I am on 9.10 and got it from the official PPA. | 21:49 |
| gablin | kholby: Um... What's its name now again... It's a standard built-in on a Samsung NC10. Atheros, something, I believe. | 21:49 |
| Phantom_Hoover | sudipta: Try the wiki. | 21:50 |
| airtonix | MindVirus, I believe your setup is fairly similar to mine then (i also use 9.10 and the banshee ppa) | 21:50 |
| Coachj | can someone help me with ripperx, please? | 21:50 |
| Carlis | What do i do ? RodgerKyle | 21:50 |
| Billiard | jenia: what method did you use to install the drivers? | 21:50 |
| jenia | okay. so as i was saying, it either freezes or become to slow | 21:50 |
| Carlis | RodgerKyle: 0 zombie in process | 21:50 |
| MindVirus | airtonix: :( | 21:50 |
| sudipta | what is wiki? | 21:50 |
| jenia | there is a program called update drivers i think | 21:50 |
| kholby | gablin, I'm probably not your guy, then. I've never worked with an Atheros card. I've had to fix just about every problem imaginable with Broadcom cards, though, and still have problems with them. | 21:51 |
| airtonix | MindVirus, have you restarted the session since you installed banshee ? | 21:51 |
| Carlis | how do i fix this issue: Panel Not responding | 21:51 |
| Riton | Hi im' running ubuntu 9.10 and i have trouble with a 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device. Someone can help me fix that ? | 21:51 |

| SirRedTooth | My screen resolution is restricted to 800x600, there is no xorg.conf file in /etc/x11 | 21:51 |
| jenia | yes | 21:51 |
| SirRedTooth | Can anybody help> | 21:51 |
| Carlis | how do i fix this issue: Panel Not responding | 21:51 |
| airtonix | MindVirus, usually it is not required... but try maybe something else is stepping in its way that requires a sessions restart | 21:51 |
| gablin | kholby: The thing is that the card itself is working. As I said, I've been using the wireless here at home and at uni for several weeks and there's been no problem. And now when I booted it up it refuses to connect to my hidden network. | 21:51 |
| === jeremy_ is now known as Guest95584 | ||

| hajmola | sudipta, you might want to see if your graphics card is blacklisted... | 21:52 |
| Carlis | how do i fix this issue: Panel Not responding | 21:52 |
| gablin | kholby: And, I can see the other wireless networks (that are public), but I just can't connect to any of them because the "Connect" button is disabled whenever I try. | 21:52 |

| chazco | Hi... On Ubuntu 9.10 the first few seconds of video play really fast (no sound) and then freeze... is this a known bug? | 21:52 |
| hajmola | sudipta, sudo gedit /usr/bin/compiz | 21:53 |
| Coachj | Carlis be patient someone will help | 21:53 |
| kholby | gablin, Did you make any changes to your system that may have caused it to stop working? | 21:53 |
| pfifo | SirRedTooth, try 'displayconfig-gtk' | 21:53 |
| FrozenPencil | I need help | 21:53 |
| Carlis | ok. Thanks | 21:53 |
| hajmola | sudipta, see if your card is listed under blacklist... if it is try commenting it out with the # sign | 21:53 |
| MindVirus | airtonix: Are you going to be around for a bit? | 21:53 |
| hajmola | sudipta, it may work, it may not... :) | 21:53 |
| gablin | kholby: None that I can think of. I haven't installed any updates or new software between when it last worked and when it stopped working. | 21:54 |
| FrozenPencil | When I boot up, it says fsck from util-limix-ng 2.16 and stays like that | 21:54 |
| airtonix | MindVirus, actually i just checked the version of banshee and it was the offical one from the ubuntu repos | 21:54 |
| usser | lekefly, find /folder -name "*.rar" -exec unrar {} \; | 21:54 |
| zanberdo | it used to be a simple matter to add a symlink in /var/www to say ~/htdocs/foo and then access a local web page via http://localhost/foo. However, I'm running ubuntu 9.04 with apache2 and when I try this I get the error 403. I have made sure that followsymlinks is set in 000-defaults. what else must be done? | 21:54 |
| SirRedTooth | @pfifo I dont see that file in /etc/x11 if thats what you mean | 21:54 |
| gablin | kholby: Doing a complete reboot doesn't help either (usually I just hibernate). | 21:54 |
| MindVirus | airtonix: So you'er running Ubuntu from the repos? | 21:54 |
| MindVirus | airtonix: I mean. | 21:54 |
| FrozenPencil | It's stayed at that screen for hours | 21:54 |
| MindVirus | airtonix: You're running Banshee from the repos? | 21:54 |
| usser | lekefly, find /folder -name "*.rar" -exec unrar e {} \; | 21:54 |
| pfifo | SirRedTooth, no its a program, run it from the terminal | 21:54 |
| FrozenPencil | Please help. :( | 21:54 |
| usser | lekefly, sorry | 21:54 |
| airtonix | MindVirus, yes but i just updated to the ppa version of banshee... so testing this for you | 21:54 |
| SirRedTooth | Okay sorry :( | 21:54 |
| lekefly | usser thanks : ) | 21:54 |
| ubuntuser | how do i use an emerald theme with compizfuzion | 21:54 |

| GreenDance | Hi | 21:55 |
| mobius2 | greetings | 21:55 |
| FrozenPencil | How do I get my screen off of "fsck from util-linux-ng 2.16"? | 21:55 |
| gablin | kholby: Correct. I can see the SSIDs of a lot of networks, but I'm unable to connect to any of them because the "Connect" button is greyed out. Very strange. | 21:55 |
| FrozenPencil | Its been saying that for hours | 21:55 |
| Riton | hey guys, i have a computer that don't reach login screen because of an intel 845G chipset ... please help me to fix | 21:56 |
| mobius2 | I have made certain that my username has a check placed beside the "allowed to use audio devices" in the users and groups settings however I can only hear audio when I am logged in as a root | 21:56 |
| sudipta | hajmola:i have checked it but my card is not under blacklist | 21:56 |
| hajmola | sudipta, i'm really not sure then... sorry I couldn't help more | 21:56 |
| Riton | splash screen is looping | 21:56 |
| pfifo | SirRedTooth, I knew they removed it, I was hoping you had 8.04 | 21:56 |
| hajmola | sudipta, what's the card name and the driver version? | 21:56 |
| airtonix | MindVirus, ppa banshee shows up in the dropdown lists also (difference is tiny : text entry for banshee is shorter in the list now ) | 21:56 |
| GreenDance | I'm having trouble with this command, sudo su && echo 'test' >> /dir/file (reason I wanted to su is because "file" is write-protected | 21:56 |
| Coachj | can anyone tell me why ripperx would create mp3s that are 2.o kb no more? | 21:56 |
| SirRedTooth | Okay, so is there no other way to fix this? | 21:57 |
| mobius2 | Coach j you might need to specify your actual disc burner and not the default image burner | 21:57 |
| chazco | Ah, seems to be this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gstreamer0.10/+bug/452456 | 21:57 |
| Coachj | Carlis after a few minutes ask again | 21:57 |
| airtonix | GreenDance, why are you using && ? | 21:57 |
| kholby | gablin, Other than maybe trying another network manager (or maybe a USB wireless card, if available), I don't have any suggestions for you. Sorry I couldn't help more. | 21:57 |
| sebsebseb | Riton: 9.10 or 9.04? | 21:57 |

| airtonix | GreenDance, for example fstab or something like it ? | 21:58 |

| greezmunkey | gablin, you could download wicd, it will replace NetworkManager on install... | 22:00 |
| julio_ | Hi guys, my motherboard BIOS do not show the option AHCI, only IDE and RAID, How can I know if my SATA II is operating with all functions?? | 22:00 |
| mobius2 | FrozenPencil I believe fsck is a sort of file system utility that checks for errors and such.... but if it's been doing that for hours yuo might need a new hard drive.... thats a pure guess though | 22:00 |
| sudipta | can emerald work without compiz | 22:00 |
| sebsebseb | Riton: not seen this one before in here, graphics card causing issue with log in screen | 22:00 |
| sebsebseb | Riton: anyway there are other log in screens that can be tried | 22:00 |
| airtonix | SirRedTooth, also, does ( system > preferences . display ) show you a drop down list of resolutions to choose ? | 22:00 |
| * EagleWatch is away: Gone away for now | 22:01 | |
| pfifo | SirRedTooth, if you have a gfx card install the restricted drivers, if you dont then youll have to write an xorg.conf | 22:01 |
| mobius2 | I am quite baffled at why I can only hear sound when Im root | 22:01 |
| airtonix | sudipta, no. | 22:01 |
| gablin | greezmunkey: Kind of difficult to download something when I don't have the wireless working... =( | 22:01 |
| mobius2 | I check the box which allows me to use audio devices | 22:01 |
| FrozenPencil | mobius2: I have an external HD. It was fine yesterday. Last night I powered it down and I booted it up this morning and thts what I did | 22:01 |
| greezmunkey | gablin, yikes =/ | 22:01 |
| airtonix | sebsebseb, you want to test out login screen without logging out ? | 22:01 |
| Riton | but most of the time it try to load login screen, fails and come back to splash | 22:01 |
| sebsebseb | airtonix: what? | 22:01 |
| sudipta | can emerald work without enabling visual effects | 22:01 |
| hajmola | sudipta, sorry, i can't really find anything. | 22:01 |
| trimeta | What's up with language-pack-en on Hardy? It looks like it wants to upgrade, but the newer version of language-pack-en-base won't install, so it's held back. | 22:01 |

| gablin | greezmunkey: But I have a cable, too. Just can't be bothered dealing with this right now. I'll try installing "wicd" tomorrow. Thanks, everyone! | 22:02 |
| sebsebseb | Riton: ok well GDM 2 sucks really anyway which is what Karmic uses by default, you could try XDM or KDM or well both instead, of course you might get issue with those as well | 22:02 |
| greezmunkey | gablin, I have'nt followed your thread, what (in a nutshell) is wrong? | 22:02 |
| mobius2 | frozenpencil.... what does the external hard drive have to do with anything? and im not trying to be a smartypants :) it's just that I am not understanding | 22:02 |
| sudipta | how to enable globalmenu in ubuntu8.04 | 22:02 |
| mobius2 | If you improperly dismounted that hdd then you could have triggered the fsck | 22:02 |

| andrew2325 | i've got a problem. when i tried to install the default ati driver, i restarted and got a black screen, so i rebooted and went to the root shell. then i installed the proprietary ati driver. now when i run aticonfig it says that it can't find supported screen section of my xorg.conf | 22:06 |
| sebsebseb | Carlis: then it will close the program that isn't responding properly, and I think with the panel probably re start it as well | 22:06 |
| mobius2 | Coachj what burning program are you using? | 22:06 |
| andrew2325 | any ideas? | 22:06 |
| gablin | greezmunkey: I haven't been using Linux much, so where should I look for that? | 22:06 |

| Riton | understood i had to change desktop, i have average english soory :D | 22:06 |
| Coachj | mobius: ripperx | 22:06 |

| Coachj | mobius2: ok | 22:07 |
| sebsebseb | FrozenPencil: when you install, XDM or KDM it will ask which one to use | 22:07 |
| gablin | greezmunkey: The wlan0 does a lot of triggered scans and creates a "new BSSID <mac address>" | 22:08 |
| mobius2 | coachj I imagine it's in the config menu | 22:08 |
| sebsebseb | hrm completly the wrong one there FrozenPencil Riton see above | 22:08 |

| alyssum | i am setting up an ubuntu network for a school. each computer has a wired ethernet connection and i do not want students to be able to disconnect from the network (since their home directory comes form the server, it will cause *very bad things to happen*). i could use /etc/network/interfaces instead of the Network Manager. or is there a way to prevent users from disconnecting in the Network Manager? | 22:13 |
| gablin | greezmunkey: http://paste.ubuntu.com/365888/ | 22:13 |
| pfifo | futurama140, 180 isnt the newest :) | 22:13 |

| alyssum | sebsebseb: so network manager is there by default. but i am wondering if i should just get rid of it? | 22:14 |
| futurama140 | pfifo: that menu has absolutely no options at all. | 22:15 |

| usser | alyssum, i'd say kill NM | 22:15 |

| mobius2 | pfifo and by "audio group" what do you mean? I looked in the drop down menu off from system administration and users | 22:15 |
| alyssum | usser: yes, i'm thinking that's the best way too. guess i just need someone else to say "do it" | 22:15 |
| od3n | ok | 22:15 |
| duffydack | od3n, Im not sure which package exactly but enabling medibuntu and installing ubuntu-restricted-extras should sort you out | 22:15 |
| od3n | thamks | 22:16 |
| alyssum | sebsebseb: nope, ordinary ubuntu. | 22:16 |
| mobius2 | pfifo the box is checked which allows my username to "use audio devices" | 22:16 |

| coldboot|home | Does anyone have mpd working with Alsa? If so, what's your "audio_output" section of your mpd configuration look like? | 22:16 |
| usser | alyssum, are those like public machines, how do you plan to lock them down? | 22:16 |
| pfifo | mobius2, pull up a terminal and run 'ls -la /dev/audio' and then run 'groups', paste the result | 22:16 |

| futurama140 | pfifo: how do i uninstall the incorrect drivers that i have? | 22:17 |
| sebsebseb | alyssum: Edubuntu might be more suitable depending on what you want to do, and that can be installed into standard Ubuntu. Plus I was mainly messaging you to find out if there was maybe a more suitable channel, since I had a feeling, you probably woudn't get that far here at the moment with your issue. | 22:17 |

| evon | i3inary: if your resolution is low | 22:34 |
| pfifo | forkpidgin, normally linux source can be built by first running './configure' inside of the archaive, and then when that is finished you run 'make' youll of course need gcc and make | 22:35 |
| evon | tom-admin: try googling for the .deb | 22:35 |
| tom-admin | found a tar.gz... hate installing those... nothing in repos huh | 22:35 |

| chad_ | Hey there guys, I was wondering about DVD playback...Currently I have a DVD in the drive but I get an error saying that all three VLC; Movie Player and brasero won't play it. Brasero seems to load it alright, but gives me a copyright protection notice and won't open the actual DVD. It's one i've purchased... not downloaded. Anyone know how I can get the DVD to work? | 23:32 |

| xapel | I have LAMP already installed. I installed wordpress from synaptic. What now? | 23:36 |
| Guest68433 | lol | 23:36 |
| erUSUL | Zosimos: you did sudo make install ? | 23:36 |
| airtonix | xapel, why did you install the wordpress from the repo it is ancient | 23:36 |
| Zosimos | no | 23:36 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | xapel, open in firefox http://localhost/wordpress/wp-admin | 23:36 |
| Guest68433 | lkjsadf | 23:36 |

| Christoph^ | Hi, I'm running karmic and I can't install g++: http://paste.ubuntu.com/365813/ | 23:36 |
| chad_ | Thanks again guys, i've noted all the websites you've given me, as well will take erusul's information to hand. | 23:36 |
| airtonix | !enter | Zosimos | 23:36 |
| ubottu | Zosimos: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 23:36 |
| xapel | airtonix: because I thought that would be the easiest | 23:37 |
| erUSUL | !checkinstall | Zosimos | 23:37 |
| ubottu | Zosimos: 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! | 23:37 |
| erUSUL | !medibuntu | chad_ | 23:37 |
| ubottu | chad_: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 23:37 |
| airtonix | xapel, have you setup wordpress before ? | 23:38 |
| xapel | AndreMorro[BR]: I get the following The config file for the specified host is not under an allowed path | 23:38 |
| Zosimos | ubottu, i have no idea what you meant by that | 23:38 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 23:38 |
| xapel | airtonix: not sure...maybe a long time ago | 23:38 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | xapel, probably WP was installed under a protect folder that you have chmod -R 777 on it | 23:39 |
| Zosimos | Please write a description for the package. | 23:39 |
| Zosimos | End your description with an empty line or EOF. | 23:39 |
| OpenSourcery | dont mind me, i am just a squatter | 23:39 |
| airtonix | xapel, 1) download wordpress tar.gz 2) decompress to /var/www/wordpress 3) open phpmyadmin (http://localhost/phpmyadmin 4) create new empty database 5) http://localhost/wordpress/index.php 5) follow install steps | 23:40 |
| xapel | ANdreMorro[BR]:mmm...i'll look into it. I'm surprised that Ubuntu does not make it easier to install wordpress | 23:40 |
| Zosimos | man, i seriously give up | 23:40 |
| Zosimos | i got trolled hardcore by ubuntu | 23:40 |
| Zosimos | holy crap | 23:40 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | xapel, actually it does, but even after installing you maybe have to fine-tune your systems | 23:40 |
| airtonix | xapel, you'll also need to chmod 775 some folders under /var/www/wordpress | 23:40 |
| erUSUL | Zosimos: why are you compiling from source is the question that comes to mind | 23:40 |
| Christoph^ | Can somebody help me, so that I can actually install g++ ? | 23:40 |
| macman_ | hey all .. anyone using a dock under ubuntu ? | 23:41 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | xapel, airtonix is also write, i think its easier thant using ubuntu apt-get | 23:41 |
| pfifo | Zosimos, ubuntu and compiling from source dont get along together | 23:41 |
| airtonix | xapel, you'll find that the repo version in the repo is really old and so most of the stuff you'll read about on the wordpress forums won't relate to your version | 23:41 |
| === user_ is now known as thevibe | ||
| airtonix | macman_, docky | 23:41 |
| Zosimos | so i gathered | 23:41 |
| pfifo | Christoph^, whats the problem? | 23:41 |
| macman_ | airtonix: does it come in karmic | 23:41 |
| Odd-rationale | How do I get the bot to give the link of a launchpad bug number again? Thanks! | 23:42 |
| Zosimos | so what distro is suitable for compilation? | 23:42 |
| xapel | AndreMorro[BR]: see thats what I mean...it should be easy to do it through synaptic. It should take care of permissions for you, or at least guide you through it | 23:42 |
| pfifo | Zosimos, gentoo | 23:42 |
| Christoph^ | pfifo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/365813/ | 23:42 |
| Zosimos | erUSUL: because there isnt a .deb package for something i want, obviously | 23:42 |
| coolcat | how do I untar to the .. directory? | 23:42 |
| erUSUL | Zosimos: any distro is; but you have to know what you are doing | 23:42 |
| Zosimos | why even ask a stupid question like that? | 23:42 |
| xapel | thanx guys | 23:42 |
| xapel | cheers | 23:42 |
| airtonix | macman_, in terminal type : sudo add-apt-repository ppa:docky-core/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install docky | 23:42 |
| OpenSourcery | what are the first several nicks for, the ones that are just a random string of chars? anything special about them | 23:42 |
| erUSUL | coolcat: .. is the parent directory .. « tar xf file.tar -C .. » | 23:43 |
| Zosimos | erushul: i'm fairly skilled in figuring things out, can handle myself. and apparently ubuntu is not compilation friendly | 23:43 |
| macman_ | airtonix: do you use it ? | 23:43 |
| pfifo | Christoph^, what ubuntu version? | 23:43 |
| Christoph^ | pfifo 9.10 | 23:43 |

| Zosimos | bazhang: unimportant, as i know your immediate response will be "desmume is in repositories" and yes, the buggy stupid version is in repositories | 23:44 |
| Zosimos | there are no alternative ds emulators for linux | 23:44 |
| pfifo | Christoph^, Looks like you already have g++ or something, Do you have build-essential installed? | 23:45 |
| paspas | hola | 23:46 |

| ubottu | paspas: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. | 23:46 |
| Zosimos | so, someone give me a distro which will make compilation easier, without completely abandoning certain basic aspects ubuntu has. | 23:46 |
| Zosimos | i'm somewhat a n00b, but not precisely a n00b | 23:46 |
| paspas | chao | 23:46 |
| Christoph^ | pfifo: $ aptitude search build-essential | 23:46 |
| Christoph^ | p build-essential | 23:46 |
| Zosimos | heh | 23:46 |
| trism | Zosimos: if you can't compile it on ubuntu, you are unlikely to have better luck elsewhere (it compiles fine on ubuntu) | 23:46 |
| Zosimos | already have it | 23:46 |
| bazhang | Zosimos, ask in ##linux or #ubuntu-offtopic this is for ubuntu support only | 23:46 |
| tuv0k | Zosimos, we are not going to point you to another distro, that would be advocacy of another distro in a #ubuntu | 23:47 |
| Zosimos | i did everything, and upon all my attempts, i need something else | 23:47 |
| tuv0k | Zosimos, go find it | 23:47 |
| chad_ | Worked perfectly! Thanks | 23:47 |
| tuv0k | Zosimos, surely if you can't use a search engine, compiling from source is going to give you problems? | 23:48 |
| Zosimos | tuv0k, i'm adept with google | 23:48 |
| pfifo | Zosimos, compiling your own programs is hard work, i reccommend you read through the linuxfromscratch.org to get a better understanding of how gcc and compiling work | 23:48 |
| Zosimos | you werent here for my briefing of the issue earlier | 23:48 |
| Zosimos | no need for you to call me stupid | 23:48 |
| Guest93960 | on freenode I noticed there is no mode +x like in SpotChat, right? | 23:48 |
| bazhang | Zosimos, do you have a support question? | 23:49 |
| binMonkey | i'm installing a virtual machine in virtualbox. when the installer asks to overwrite my partiotion, it means *just the little bit* i put aside for virtualbox, right? it won't erase anything else? | 23:49 |
| AndreMorro[BR] | binMonkey, you're using a phisical HD or a "file" HD? | 23:49 |
| bazhang | Guest93960, not sure , perhaps ask in #freenode | 23:49 |
| pfifo | Christoph^, you have installed something that is interfering with g++'s install, atleast thats what it looks like | 23:50 |
| Zosimos | unless someone can give me a reasonable alternative to desmume | 23:50 |
| fatum | What's a good mail server to setup on Ubuntu? | 23:50 |
| fatum | POSIX or something maybe? | 23:50 |
| Zosimos | that'd be lovely | 23:50 |
| fatum | I've looked around, but it looks a litltle complicated. | 23:50 |
| erUSUL | !postfix | fatum | 23:50 |

| Christoph^ | pfifo: oh, not good. How do I find out what it is? | 23:50 |
| Zosimos | i looked on google, i see no alternatives | 23:50 |
| binMonkey | AndreMorro[BR]: i'm pretty sure it's the file hd that vbox asked to set up. | 23:50 |
