| benkay86 | arand: That would be funny if GRUB2 weren't the default bootloader. | 00:00 |
|---|
| arand | benkay86: Otherwise http://grub.enbug.org/CommandList seems to have some doc for most of the commands | 00:00 |
|---|
| benkay86 | arand: It just points to the documentation from legacy GRUB. | 00:01 |
|---|
| apollo | nothing... | 00:01 |

| benkay86 | apollo: OK. Let's try pressing Escape to go back to the menu. Could you please remind me what options are there? | 00:02 |

| Carci | Does anyone have any suggestions for this problem I'm facing? "err:wave:wodPlayer_WriteMaxFrags Error in writing wavehdr. Reason: Resource temporarily unavailable" | 00:05 |
|---|
| benkay86 | apollo: First off, trying the "recovery" option might just get us somewhere. If that fails, the memtest86 almost always works. If that fails too, then I'm going to go bang my head against a wall. | 00:05 |
|---|
| bioinfolabo | Okay. So whenever I leave my computer running for a extended period of time I come back to find that sound wont work at all. I used to close firefox and then do ps aux | grep firefox and kill it again because it wouldnt close for some reason. After that sound comes back when I re open firefox | 00:05 |
|---|
| bioinfolabo | now I have moved to chrome... and it wont work again | 00:05 |
|---|
| bioinfolabo | and I am tired of rebooting | 00:05 |

| phoenixz | What would be the recommended plugin to use for firefox flash? AFAIK, NOT The adobe one, since it.. sucks.. but I want to be able to do pretty much everything with flash like youtube video, and well, all needed for normal browsing.. | 00:05 |
|---|
| mado | DasEi, yes | 00:06 |
|---|
| jrib | phoenixz: adobe flash | 00:06 |
|---|
| apollo | stuff is happening with recovery mode. a bunch of commands... it stopped at 3.172183 | 00:06 |
|---|
| phoenixz | jrib: But isnt that the one causing lots of trouble, slow, etc? | 00:06 |
|---|
| jrib | phoenixz: yep | 00:06 |
|---|
| DasEi | bioinfolabo: can have a couple of reasons, checked your syslog about alsa and pulseaudio ? | 00:06 |
|---|
| phoenixz | jrib: yet its the recommended one.. as in, the alternatives suck worse? | 00:07 |
|---|
| benkay86 | apollo: If it's stuck, could you tell me what the last line says? | 00:07 |
|---|
| jrib | phoenixz: you can try gnash, but it won't run everything you encounter | 00:07 |
|---|
| bioinfolabo | Im a linux newbie. Unfortunately I have been sheltered all my life with windows... | 00:07 |
|---|
| DasEi | mado : which was it ? (the applet) I tend to delete it, if something is missing, remove --purge gdm from out of x and reinstall it | 00:07 |
|---|
| bioinfolabo | where is syslog? | 00:07 |
|---|
| DasEi | bioinfolabo: /var/log/syslog | 00:08 |
|---|
| mado | DasEi, er ... i don't know how to reinstall applets ... plus ... i already miss some applets | 00:08 |
|---|
| ardchoille | How would I start a second xorg instance and log in as the same user but in a different window manager? | 00:08 |
|---|
| ZykoticK9 | bioinfolabo, are you killing chrome like you did firefox and audio is not coming back? just clarifying | 00:08 |
|---|
| ardchoille | Is that even possible? | 00:08 |
|---|
| DasEi | bioinfolabo: sudo apt-get install pastebinit && pastebinit /var/log/syslog | 00:09 |
|---|
| jrib | ardchoille: want the easy way or hard way? | 00:09 |

|---|
| ardchoille | jrib: Easy, to begin with | 00:09 |
|---|
| apollo | thats where it stopped | 00:09 |
|---|
| ZykoticK9 | ardchoille, that use to be possible - but you need two different users now with GDM | 00:09 |
|---|
| jrib | ardchoille: use gdmflexiserver, it will spawn a new gdm for you to log into. Hit options to change the window manager | 00:09 |

| DasEi | mado: gnome-applets are a collection of the most common ones | 00:10 |

| benkay86 | apollo: That's... unusual. What kind of netbook did you say you had? | 00:10 |
|---|
| apollo | hp mini 311 1000nr | 00:10 |
|---|
| apollo | came with win xp installed | 00:10 |
|---|
| ardchoille | jrib: Ah, cool, I have that installed already for screenshots of gdm | 00:11 |
|---|
| mado | DasEi, which means? ... i'm sorry ... i'm a beginner | 00:11 |
|---|
| ardchoille | jrib: curiosity is getting the better of me, what's the hard way? | 00:11 |
|---|
| bioinfolabo | i gotta run to cloass | 00:11 |

|---|
| DasEi | mado: try: sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm && sudo apt-get install gnome-applets | 00:11 |
|---|
| benkay86 | apollo: OK. I'm going to look and see if there are any known issues with your netbook. In the meanwhile, could you try rebooting and choosing the "windows vista (loader)" option? Remember, you'll have to press a button (like escape) before GRUB decides to boot the default option. | 00:12 |

|---|
| renamon | help? | 00:16 |
|---|
| ZykoticK9 | ardchoille, since 9.10 i don't think it will allow the same user to log in | 00:16 |

| DasEi | snoopy: lspci or lshw, filter by grep | 00:16 |
|---|
| benkay86 | apollo: Oh. Well, I suppose that would be faily definitive. | 00:17 |
|---|
| ardchoille | ZykoticK9: Sounds like a very good security measure | 00:17 |
|---|
| benkay86 | apollo: Out of curiosity (because it shouldn't matter), did you try to install Ubuntu or the Ubuntu netbook remix? | 00:17 |
|---|

|---|
| ardchoille | ZykoticK9: Ah, yeah | 00:18 |
|---|
| apollo | there is a specified file and status | 00:18 |
|---|
| benkay86 | arand: The other thing that irks me about GRUB2 is that the only way to obtain the information you just got is to reboot. In legacy grub, it was possible to go to the grub prompt simply by running "grub". | 00:18 |

|---|
| renamon | yeah and it no working | 00:20 |
|---|
| benkay86 | arand, apollo: OK, so it looks like GRUB2 is actually working just fine since it is able to load both the Linux kernel and the Windows bootloader. The problem seems to be somewhere later in the boot process. | 00:20 |
|---|
| apollo | 'windows has failed to start. a recent hardware or software change might be the cause. to fix the problem: 1.installtion disk 2.chooselanguage 3. click repair if that doesn't work contact for assistance | 00:20 |

|---|
| apollo | no that would be in the installation disk (which i don't have) | 00:21 |
|---|
| jrib | DasEi: why would renamon need to do that? | 00:21 |
|---|
| mantis | thanks | 00:21 |

| jrib | renamon: you need to actually pastebin what you are doing and the output so we know what's going on. | 00:24 |
|---|
| apollo | with serial console or no? what does memtest do? | 00:24 |
|---|
| DasEi | renamon: see above lines | 00:24 |
|---|
| renamon | wheres the pastebin!?! | 00:25 |
|---|
| DasEi | ... | 00:25 |
|---|
| benkay86 | apollo: The particular Windows error message you gave me means that the Windows bootloader can't find the file ntldr.exe. | 00:25 |
|---|
| jrib | renamon: paste.ubuntu.com if you want | 00:25 |
|---|
| benkay86 | apollo: memtest will test your computer's RAM for errors. It's quite harmless to run, since it doesn't touch your hard drive. | 00:25 |
|---|
| apollo | ok so what about ntldr.exe | 00:26 |
|---|
| benkay86 | apollo: The serial console is useful for computers without monitors, a dilemma you do not have. | 00:26 |
|---|
| apollo | ok | 00:26 |
|---|
| renamon | wat do i need to paste here? | 00:26 |
|---|
| benkay86 | apollo: As far as I know, the only way to see that error message is if the partition number of your Windows partition was changed, but I don't think that's the case here... | 00:27 |
|---|
| DasEi | renamon: the output from sudo apt-get update | 00:27 |
|---|
| benkay86 | apollo: Moreover, Linux shouldn't freeze on boot without displaying some sort of error message :-( | 00:27 |
|---|
| apollo | i shifted that partition to left using gparted. there was unallocated space before my partition | 00:28 |
|---|
| renamon | nvm it just started to wark. YAYS!!!!! | 00:28 |
|---|
| DasEi | apollo: unset the quiet/splash in grub, can have output | 00:28 |
|---|
| ardchoille | ZykoticK9: And I see that you can't disable the user list in gdm either | 00:28 |
|---|
| apollo | what? | 00:28 |
|---|
| benkay86 | apollo: Oh, that may actually have caused the problem. | 00:28 |
|---|
| apollo | cool. how to fix? | 00:28 |
|---|
| benkay86 | DasEi: I believe that's what booting in recovery mode does. | 00:28 |
|---|
| DasEi | renamon: the recovery automates some apt-locks, so be fine then | 00:29 |
|---|
| renamon | one more small q. is it possible to have diff backgrounds on diff desktops on the same system? | 00:29 |
|---|
| benkay86 | DasEi: I recall the last line apollo described was just some IRQ enumeration. Nothing to suggest anything was amiss. | 00:29 |
|---|
| DasEi | benkay86: if configured so, recovery halts on an eralier intialisation | 00:30 |
|---|
| benkay86 | DasEi: What do you mean? | 00:30 |
|---|
| DasEi | earlier* | 00:30 |
|---|
| mado | DasEi, ok ... i'm back ... but it still didn't do the trick ... the applets that were once there when ubuntu was freshly installed still aren't here | 00:30 |
|---|
| apollo | should i try recovery mode again jsut for shits and giggs? | 00:30 |
|---|
| DasEi | mado : like which ? | 00:30 |
|---|
| ZykoticK9 | ardchoille, gdm customization and grub customization or kinda missing in karmic... | 00:30 |
|---|
| benkay86 | apollo: Sure, DasEi may want to know what the output looks like. | 00:30 |
|---|
| renamon | one more small q. is it possible to have diff backgrounds on diff desktops on the same system? | 00:31 |

|---|
| benkay86 | apollo: As far as getting Windows to boot, you would probably need a Windows rescue/install image. Or to put the Windows partition back at its original offset. | 00:31 |

|---|

| ubottu | andre_: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !attitude | 00:41 |

| Dr_Willis | andre_: you could just leave part of the hd unallocated. and tell the installer to use/auto partion the unallocated space. | 00:42 |

| andre_ | i will intall a new disk and see what happens... | 00:47 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | `mOOse`: i recall for a full/normal install to a flash drive. on the last (?) dialog of the installer theres an option to tell it where to install grub to. You have to tell it where the usb drive is. | 00:47 |

| === egrep is now known as igroklinux |

| zealot | be sure to blacklist the linux drivers | 00:50 |
|---|
| zealot | if you are going to use the propietary drivers | 00:50 |
|---|
| DasEi | benkay86: clocksource unstable, is that pc oc'ed ? | 00:50 |

| zealot | all someone has to do is get your user password | 00:55 |

| hyperstream | ectraz, and ALWAYS use sudo when possible | 00:55 |
|---|
| zealot | and they have root access | 00:55 |

| jeeves_Moss | is there a simple way to access my EXT3 partition (my Ubuntu 9.10 install) form XP and Win7? | 00:56 |
|---|
| hyperstream | zealot, it doesnt matter, its the way it is. | 00:56 |
|---|
| krysis | zealot, sudo is made so one does not have to use root, this is the fault Windows systems have, being a root user (admin) all the time hence causing damages | 00:57 |
|---|
| benkay86 | DasEi: Possible, but I've unstable delta with plenty of normal systems. RAM problem sounds plausible though, I'll ask apollo to run memcheck. | 00:57 |
|---|
| DasEi | jeeves_Moss: ext3 will work (not ext4),, google ext2ntfs | 00:57 |

| Deviouz | yes I rebooted, but it was just black | 01:09 |
|---|
| tbrock | don't have cable | 01:09 |
|---|
| rahduke | genii: oh ok sorry then stop gdm deviouz | 01:09 |
|---|
| tbrock | haha | 01:09 |
|---|
| Deviouz | with both drivers, 185, and 173? | 01:09 |
|---|
| ectraz | root@XBMCLive:/home/tmp# aticonfig --initial -f | 01:09 |
|---|
| ectraz | aticonfig: No supported adapters detected | 01:09 |
|---|
| DasEi | mado : to be honest, I'm tired, I had the same issue, it came back itself in the later, was from jaunty to karmic | 01:09 |
|---|
| Deviouz | wouldnt a reboot be just as good? | 01:09 |
|---|
| rahduke | Deviouz: to select the right driver just pick ur card series from the drop downs on http://www.nvidia.com/Download/Find.aspx?lang=en-us | 01:10 |

| opticon | what antivirus software will work with ubuntu | 01:10 |

| hyperstream | !repeat | ectraz | 01:10 |
|---|
| ubottu | ectraz: 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. | 01:10 |
|---|
| acicula | !antivirus | 01:10 |
|---|
| ubottu | Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux, except where files are then passed to windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus | 01:10 |
|---|
| benkay86 | DasEi: We tried Alt+F2 to visit a different VT. Usually if init gets stuck it says something -- in this case it doesn't look like init has even started. | 01:10 |
|---|
| Deviouz | ok I will try | 01:10 |
|---|
| vadimanri | rahduke, that is what I did, and when I activeate the second display and click on the "save to X Configuration" button, I get the error message saying "Failed to parse existing X config file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'!" | 01:10 |
|---|
| Deviouz | and then install it, then what do I do if its black again? | 01:10 |
|---|
| mado | DasEi, *nods slightly* understood ... well ... if you're tired ... then you should go to bed *smiles* | 01:10 |
|---|
| DasEi | benkay86: hmm, ctrl+c ? ctrl-alt-delete ? | 01:10 |
|---|
| hyperstream | vadimanri, how come you didnt use the Restricted hardware drivers? | 01:11 |
|---|
| benkay86 | DasEi: Tried ctrl-alt-del too. | 01:11 |
|---|
| Deviouz | rahduke, is there anything more I need to do after install? | 01:11 |
|---|
| vadimanri | Hyperstream, I am new to Linux and don't really know what I should be doing at this point! | 01:11 |
|---|
| rahduke | vadimanri: it works for me, the only reason u should have that error is if u are not able to save the file because u are not root | 01:11 |
|---|
| hyperstream | rahduke, or he doesnt have a xorg.conf thats parsable :) | 01:12 |
|---|
| rahduke | Deviouz: the package will walk u thru the setup, then just reboot and it should work.... | 01:12 |
|---|
| Deviouz | what if its black? | 01:12 |
|---|
| ectraz | This will probably be a stupid question, can someone guide me on installing ATI Restricted Drivers!? | 01:13 |
|---|
| rahduke | Deviouz: so what u needa do is drop into console Alt+F2 then stop gdm 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop' then locate ur package and type 'sudo .sh ./NAME OF PACKAGE | 01:13 |
|---|
| DasEi | benkay86: next approach is then boot live cd, rebuild initramfs, maybe blacklist that forcedeth, (irq 16 to 22, maybe another device missing then ?) check syslog and maybe more of dmesg | 01:13 |
|---|
| hyperstream | ectraz, System > Administration > Hardware Drivers | 01:13 |
|---|
| ectraz | i dont have a Gui :( | 01:13 |
|---|
| DasEi | benkay86: *^ chroot into the hd from live, also check filesystem | 01:14 |
|---|
| Deviouz | ok, I will try, thanks for the help | 01:14 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | Deviouz: 'sudo service gdm stop' may work also | 01:14 |

|---|
| krysis | Someone follow me on this one: lets say a malicious script is saved as an "image" with an extension of .jpg, couldn't there be a way for gnome to encorporate a feature that tells the user that that file is a Script, and not an image, document, music or video file (as most users automatically open such files without considering of viruses) | 01:37 |
|---|
| rahduke | scary | 01:37 |
|---|
| krysis | and the script would ask "Are you sure you want to run this script, it could be harmful to your computer if you do not know what it does" | 01:37 |

| armando | try with wake on lan | 01:40 |

| rahduke | thats it, i was trying to think of that all day yesterday | 01:40 |

| armando | so | 01:41 |
|---|
| krysis | that would be a hardware feature would it not? | 01:41 |
|---|
| OzzmanNT | krysis: yes | 01:41 |
|---|
| rahduke | krysis: it works as long as there is lan and power plug in, so ive heard | 01:41 |
|---|
| dirk__ | well hibernate to hdd would be ok | 01:41 |
|---|
| dirk__ | but thats the same thing in that case isnt it? | 01:41 |
|---|
| apollo | Benkay you there? | 01:41 |

|---|
| boss_mc | quick question, I have a php page on my site that used to be served fine through apache2 but suddenly, clicking the link just sits on receiving data, without ever serving the page... can anyone think of why this might have happened? | 01:42 |
|---|
| rahduke | anyone got an updated WOL guide for 9.10? | 01:42 |
|---|
| dirk__ | but i dont wanna wake on lan, i wanna wake on cron do u guys know anything about that? | 01:43 |
|---|
| Guest794 | Mike_lifeguard: I got stuck with the command to mount it. | 01:43 |
|---|
| sabesto | wol doesnt have anything to do with the OS | 01:43 |
|---|
| armando | any one knows how to jump the windows firewall?? | 01:43 |
|---|
| OzzmanNT | krysis: it's a pretty neat feature and even a bunch of devices support it now, you can even have u'r router wake u'r computers now (with DD-WRT) | 01:43 |
|---|
| ardchoille | armando: ask in #windows | 01:43 |

| Mike_lifeguard | Guest794: ok, could you paste the output of blkid to p.defau.lt for me? | 01:43 |

| apollo | alright no errors | 01:43 |
|---|
| krysis | ahhh, yes i've herad of DD-WRT, very interesting... | 01:43 |
|---|
| sabesto | yes, a DD-WRT router could wake a computer at certain time | 01:44 |
|---|
| hyperstream | rahduke, the solution to vadimanri 's xorg nvidia issue was running: sudo nvidia-xconfig :) | 01:44 |
|---|
| Guest794 | Mike_lifeguard: I type blkid and it comes out with nothing | 01:44 |

| rahduke | i suk | 01:44 |
|---|
| Mike_lifeguard | Guest794: try doing 'sudo blkid' then? | 01:44 |
|---|
| Mike_lifeguard | (Assuming you have sudo access) | 01:44 |
|---|
| rahduke | OzzmanNT: so its a pain to setup? | 01:44 |
|---|
| apollo | i don't know what else to do i ahve linux mint ready to be booted from a different usb if all else fails... i just need an os for school tomorrow. | 01:45 |
|---|
| krysis | dirk__: you have to understand that once a computer is turned off it has no control over an operating system (such as ubuntu) the system is turned to BIOS, and unless your bios supports some sort of timer to turn on (unless its wake on lan) it cannot be done from the operating system level | 01:45 |
|---|
| benkay86 | apollo: So, my guess is you'd like to have XP back since I really don't know what the problem with Linux is. | 01:45 |
|---|

| krysis | dirk__: also if windows does it then it must use wake on lan | 01:46 |
|---|
| OzzmanNT | rahduke: either use that or tomato both are awesome, and you can get more power out of the router, linksys i assume? | 01:46 |

| sysdoc | boss_mc, woot! | 01:47 |

| Mike_lifeguard | Guest32569: give me the link so I can see what you pasted | 01:47 |

| Guest32569 | I hope this is a good place to ask this question. I just installed Ubuntu as a dual boot with my development machine. I installed 9.1 64-bit. When it boots, I get to a grub shell(?), not any kind of GUI at all. Did my install fail? Do I need to do something to get a GUI up? | 01:48 |

|---|
| rahduke | krysis: your giving out bunk info man | 01:48 |

|---|
| dirk__ | but thx for ur help, ill search around a bit more | 01:48 |
|---|
| krysis | well rahduke do you have a solution? | 01:48 |

| benkay86 | apollo: As far as getting Windows to work, you will need some sort of bootable USB image to work with. I don't think Microsoft makes one available officially, but I suspect you can find something on Google. You'll want to use some combination of the commands chkdsk, bootcfg, and fixboot. | 01:50 |

| myshirwm | any suggestions for mounting an iso that returns an error? | 01:54 |
|---|
| Guest32569 | Sorry, 9.10... It reminds me of a Unix command line shell. There are two words seperated by a '/' character, and the last word is grub. typing help listed several commands I could try, but i gigured I'd probably break something. Anyway, I'm just wondering whether this is normal, or should I expect to see a GUI? The install led me to believe I'd end up with a GUI | 01:54 |
|---|
| Mike_lifeguard | Guest32569: yeah, that's not right - but I'm no expert, you'll need help from someone else for that :( | 01:55 |

| hatebred | Hello, I was sent here from efnet. I am trying to get my hp built-in mic to record. I am using skype and have read a few posts that reflect my issue but they can record with the sound recorder. (I can not) I have seen this is an issue with HP laptops. I have followed 2 howtos regarding the removal of pulse audio and install esound. I removed pulse packages, didabled it in the sys startup, but it is still in use and esound is | 02:24 |

During the partition setup of the graphical install, I told it to size the partition to 90GB and change it to ext4, without formatting... | 02:25 |
|---|
| maco | hatebred: well could also be that you have your mic muted or something... | 02:25 |

| guest4127145 | well not natively... 3rd party apps can... Acronis Disk Director and Partition magic off the top of my head | 02:30 |
|---|
| guest4127145 | can resize and keep data | 02:30 |
|---|
| `mOOse` | partition magic can do it - but not native windows | 02:30 |
|---|
| maco | hatebred: then the "Subsystem Id:" line will give you a long hex number like 0x10438284 | 02:31 |
|---|
| `mOOse` | right | 02:31 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | Ive used vista to resize ntfs and keep data.. (i think it was vista) | 02:31 |
|---|
| maco | hatebred: in the case of my laptop, you'd look for "1043" in that file and see if there's anywhere that shows "8284" next to it.. but ya know, use your numbers | 02:31 |
|---|
| guest4127145 | I suppose I should've used the tried and true method of Hirens. I don't know why I didn't.. figured that would be something simple enough for Kubuntu's installer to handle | 02:31 |

| guest4127145 | heh | 02:34 |
|---|
| `mOOse` | I'm not sure the gui install gives you the option | 02:34 |
|---|
| krysis | its useful to install /home on another partition | 02:35 |

| `mOOse` | I know in suse, yast can do it with partimage | 02:35 |
|---|
| woodyjlw | is there a way to delete old ssid and password history in ubuntu | 02:35 |
|---|
| `mOOse` | but I'm not sure about kubuntu | 02:35 |
|---|
| guest4127145 | I should look into lvm... I've seen a lot of talk about it but never actually did any research into it | 02:35 |
|---|
| maco | krysis: eh. only if you're afraid one partition will corrupt and the other won't. since ubuntu's installer supports keeping /home when doing a clean install, the old usefulness is a bit moot | 02:35 |
|---|
| guest4127145 | is it worth the time and effort? | 02:35 |
|---|
| `mOOse` | xbuntu has what they call an "alternate install" iso that has a text-based install that you definitely can | 02:36 |
|---|
| === ubuntu is now known as lacita |
| guest4127145 | other than for the sake of just the knowledge that is | 02:36 |
|---|
| `mOOse` | yes, it's quite handy | 02:36 |
|---|
| `mOOse` | you can dynamically adjust your partitions | 02:36 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | Ive gotten where i just keep my partion layout more and more simple. :) | 02:36 |
|---|
| `mOOse` | yes, that's the best way! | 02:36 |
|---|
| guest4127145 | I'm used to text based... I used to run Debian only so I'm good on that front | 02:36 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | but it helps that i have like 4 hard drives.. one for /, one for /home | 02:37 |

| `mOOse` | except for the little clonezilla fiasco the other night (which I'm not rebuilding because of) | 02:37 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | guest4127145: i got /home on its own hard drive. :) not juist its own partition | 02:37 |
|---|
| lacita | Dr_Willis: sdc1 has been set up, but I can't get it formatted to "Dell Utility" using parted.

| Quirkly | MacBookUser, I have the normal, and the recovery, and then the memtest stuff | 03:52 |
|---|
| Quirkly | no single mode | 03:52 |
|---|
| arghh2d2 | Quirkly: you have to go int /etc/rc.d/ and rename S.gdm to K.gdm for runlevel 5 | 03:52 |
|---|
| ubuntuFish | jguzikowski, try logging out and logging back in, or restarting. otherwise the problem is with the theme | 03:52 |
|---|
| futurama140 | joeyjones: youre a fucking asshole | 03:52 |

| JDiMatteo | can somebody help me send CTRL ALT DEL after connecting to a Windows XP box with rdesktop? CTRL ALT DEL doesn't seem to work, and neither do CTRL ALT END, nor CTRL ALT INSERT, etc. Any ideas? | 03:52 |
|---|
| jguzikowski | thanks ubuntuFish :) | 03:52 |
|---|
| Quirkly | arghh2d2, I go try that | 03:52 |

|---|
| MacBookUser | sayed1: Have you installed it into the computer? | 03:53 |
|---|
| ubuntuFish | jguzikowski, no problem, good luck | 03:53 |
|---|
| sayed1 | MacBookUser: not yet i want to install the driver | 03:53 |
|---|
| MacBookUser | Quirkly: Or use the recovery mode option | 03:53 |
|---|
| JDiMatteo | sorry, I guess I'll go. didn't mean to offend you guys... | 03:53 |
|---|
| MacBookUser | Qurikly: recovery mode dumps you at shell | 03:53 |
|---|
| MacBookUser | sayed1: What brand and model? | 03:54 |
|---|
| Quirkly | recovery mode option would work, but I'm looking for a more permanent solution, my laptop just doesn't like too much fancy stuff | 03:54 |
|---|
| sayed1 | MacBookUser: azurewave | 03:54 |
|---|
| ubuntuFish | JDiMatteo, its just kind of a huge public, "family friendly" channel, no biggie. just keep it clean and dont attack ppl and ur fine | 03:54 |
|---|
| Quirkly | arghh2d2, I don't have /etc/rc.d | 03:54 |

| MacBookUser | Quirkly: You could kill X by the three finger salute, CTRL + ALT + BACKSPACE | 03:55 |
|---|
| phong_ | where an i find vlc player 1.0.5 my vlc player is 1.0.2 | 03:55 |
|---|
| Quirkly | oh shit, there's that | 03:55 |
|---|
| Quirkly | oops my language | 03:55 |
|---|
| MacBookUser | sayed1: Wait a moment, I'll search for ya | 03:55 |
|---|
| phong_ | i want the latest update | 03:55 |
|---|
| ubuntuFish | macbookuser, actually, does the 3 finger salute work? | 03:55 |
|---|
| sayed1 | MacBookUser: ad-sp200 | 03:55 |
|---|
| Quirkly | and to think I just relearned that shortcut....maybe it works maybe not | 03:55 |
|---|
| ubuntuFish | macbookuser, ctrl alt backspace doesnt work for me | 03:55 |
|---|
| MacBookUser | Ugh | 03:55 |
|---|
| sayed1 | MacBookUser: ok thx | 03:55 |
|---|
| Quirkly | k just flat out removing gdm, see if that does it | 03:56 |
|---|
| phong_ | no one help | 03:56 |
|---|
| Quirkly | btw, anyone know if my wireless will still work at that point, or should I install some stuff before doing this venture? | 03:56 |
|---|
| ubuntuFish | phong_, whats your question? | 03:56 |
|---|
| Quirkly | I assume it might, since networking shouldn't be too affected, but I dunno | 03:56 |
|---|
| MacBookUser | Your wifi is not related with gdm | 03:56 |
|---|
| phong_ | currently i have vlc 1.0.2 there is an update 1.0.5 | 03:56 |
|---|
| Quirkly | my other machine was fine, but it's a wired connection | 03:56 |
|---|
| phong_ | i want the updated one ,,, | 03:56 |
|---|
| ubuntuFish | quirkly, there is a nice tutorial for setting up wireless from command line, let me just track it down | 03:56 |
|---|
| arghh2d2 | Quirkly: i's /etc/rc.something, then you gointo the folder for runlevel 5 maybe /etc/something/rc.5? then you rename S.gdm to K.gdm...i'm not using ubuntu so i dont know exactly but thats the jist of what you have to do | 03:56 |
|---|
| arghh2d2 | Quirkly: GDM has nothing to do with your networking | 03:57 |
|---|
| MacBookUser | phong_: Do 'sudo apt-get upgrade' at a terminal | 03:57 |
|---|
| Quirkly | arghh2d2, if my next attempt fails, I'll dig further, I found a bunch of Rc stuff | 03:57 |

| zubin71 | hi id like some help with karmic | 03:57 |
|---|
| zubin71 | i had karmic up and running with grub 2 | 03:57 |
|---|
| zubin71 | when i installed fedora which had grub 1 | 03:57 |
|---|
| zubin71 | now karmic doesnt boot | 03:57 |
|---|
| zubin71 | im not interested in having grub 2 | 03:57 |
|---|
| FloodBot1 | zubin71: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 03:57 |
|---|
| zubin71 | is there anyway i can boot in2 karmic from the older grub? | 03:57 |
|---|
| zubin71 | please help | 03:57 |
|---|
| Quirkly | arghh2d2, what I meant, was would the wireless be started up by something started in the X environment, or would it have started befoer.... | 03:57 |
|---|
| Quirkly | worst case is I just gotta reinstall the whole system again lol | 03:57 |
|---|
| ubuntuFish | phong-, im going to need more info than that | 03:58 |
|---|
| MacBookUser | zubin71: I think your fedora knocked out karmic | 03:58 |
|---|
| arghh2d2 | Quirkly: good question. | 03:58 |
|---|
| phong_ | macbookuser: i did it....i still see vlc 1.0.2 | 03:58 |
|---|
| Quirkly | ubuntuFish, no rush on that tutorial, I have a funny feeling it wouldn't help me too much anyways, this machine has refused to do anything sensible or according to instructions | 03:58 |
|---|
| lacita | I can't get GNU Parted to install... | 03:58 |
|---|
| Quirkly | arghh2d2, glad you understand what I mean | 03:58 |

| onil | need help: my application windows blacks out frequently for a minute or so leaving other processes also stalled .During this process blinking LED stops blinking and continuously glows.No work can be done during that time till the black screen is gone .PLZ help me over this issue.I m a noob, migrated from windows to ubuntu. | 03:59 |
|---|
| Quirkly | oh well here goes nothing, brb maybe maybe | 03:59 |

| phong_ | i only see vlc 1.0.5 source for linux | 03:59 |
|---|
| james_ | what is the command syntax to add a new user to a ubuntu box with the goal of creating a user account that will allow someone to have access to the samba share and nothing else? | 03:59 |
|---|
| MacBookUser | onil: What blinking LED | 03:59 |
|---|
| arghh2d2 | Quirkly: worst case senario is that you type "startx" or "gdm" and you'r right back in your gui with network manager running | 03:59 |
|---|
| ekpyrotic | Hey guys. I need a hand. System keeps telling me I'm low on disk space, but I'm not. | 03:59 |

| TheMusicGuy | Hi, I have a dual-boot setup and I'm using the Nvidia restricted X drivers with the "twin view" option enabled. I have a problem where full-screen applications always get displayed half-and-half, with one half on the left and another on the right. Is there a way to tell X (or the NVidia drivers) to only display full-screen apps on just one screen? | 04:21 |
|---|
| ben_ | thanks bazhang | 04:21 |
|---|
| bazhang | ben_, there is a ppa for it if you wish | 04:21 |
|---|
| AMAM | I need to recompile the kernel with the option: CONFIG_MTRR_SANITIZER_ENABLE_DEFAULT=1 | 04:21 |
|---|
| dmsuperman | TheMusicGuy: One solution is to use compiz which seems to be able to detect this for you and correct it | 04:21 |
|---|
| AMAM | can I change that without recompiling | 04:21 |
|---|
| ben_ | sure | 04:21 |
|---|
| Izinucs | TheMusicGuy: one of the options in nvidia-settings might give you what you want | 04:21 |

| TheMusicGuy | dmsuperman: Izinucs: sounds good, but can you be more specific? I'm not sure which options you mean. | 04:23 |

| jguzikowski | bah, no one answers there, was hoping i could get someone here, alright thanks anyway | 04:23 |

| rich97 | How might I move the contents of a folder including hidden files and folders into the current directory using terminal. I've tried "mv folder/* ." but that does not move the hidden folders.// | 04:24 |

| AMAM | rich97: mv -r dir newdir | 04:24 |
|---|
| AMAM | the "-r" option | 04:24 |
|---|
| TheMusicGuy | Izinucs: I don't see anything in nvidia-settings about full screen. | 04:25 |
|---|
| AMAM | looks like, I won't get any answer for my question here | 04:26 |
|---|
| Quirkly | alright, so that was hilarious | 04:26 |

|---|
| lacita | anyone know how to format a Dell Utility partition on a drive with a gpt partition table type? | 04:26 |
|---|
| Quirkly | AMAM what you trying to do | 04:26 |
|---|
| AMAM | sorry I'm stupid | 04:26 |
|---|
| AMAM | that's only for rm not mv | 04:26 |
|---|
| Izinucs | TheMusicGuy: It's been a couple of years since I looked at nvidia-settings.. sorry I don't know how to guide you here. | 04:26 |
|---|
| TheMusicGuy | Izinucs: Hm, I see. Do you know if it has anything to do with "metamodes"? | 04:27 |
|---|
| rich97 | My problem isn't it's not moving the folders it's that it's not moving folders and files with the '.' prefix. | 04:27 |
|---|
| think43 | You know how when you move your mouse to the corner of the screen and all the windows arrange them selves neatly for you to select one, What is that called? And how do you enable it? | 04:28 |
|---|
| Fauntix | can I get a one-on-one 9.1 help please | 04:28 |
|---|
| AMAM | have u tried mv dir/.* | 04:28 |
|---|
| mrpink57 | think43: are you talking about the box with the squares | 04:28 |
|---|
| ardchoille | mv dir . will do it | 04:28 |
|---|
| ardchoille | does it fine here | 04:28 |
|---|
| think43 | mrpink57, no, I mean, that mac osx type feature. You move you mouse to the top left corner, and all the windows arrange neatly on the screen, to see all the windows you have open | 04:29 |
|---|
| arghh2d2 | Quirkly: did you get your box to boot to console? | 04:29 |
|---|
| mrpink57 | think43: I think that is a comopiz type feature | 04:29 |
|---|
| Izinucs | TheMusicGuy: possibly.. there's a couple of things going on.. one is the size of "x" which could be a measurement of both monitors resolutions combined.. that's how it stretches across both.. then there's the limitation of the actual size of each monitor.. google for help with "xrandr" and "xrandr dual monitor ubuntu" that might shed some light on the situation | 04:29 |
|---|
| ardchoille | think43: you can use gnome-shell for that or compiz has a feature that does that | 04:29 |
|---|
| ben_ | bazhang, does xbmc support blu ray? | 04:30 |
|---|
| Quirkly | arghh2d2, yea, obliterated gdm | 04:30 |

| scone | hello. I have the most bizzare issue: I don't know what you'd call it but during startup and shut down of both the livecd and an install on the HP workstation I'm using, the system will hang until I press a key or move the mouse | 04:30 |
|---|
| arghh2d2 | Quirkly: you still have networking? | 04:30 |
|---|
| Quirkly | HOWEVER, arghh2d2 my suspicious about the wireless were confirmed | 04:30 |
|---|
| Quirkly | no, didn't | 04:30 |
|---|
| TheMusicGuy | Izinucs: Okay, I'll try that. Thank you. | 04:30 |
|---|
| AMAM | think43: here on my OpenSUSE, it's called "Scale: initiate window picker" | 04:30 |
|---|
| think43 | Ubuntu 9.10 has composing including, you don't have to go install compiz yourself. But I don't know how to change the settings | 04:30 |
|---|
| Quirkly | got on from other computer, then forgot to just manually run startx, which then kicked the wireless in right away | 04:30 |
|---|
| think43 | AMAM, yep, that what I wanted, thanks | 04:31 |
|---|
| arghh2d2 | Quirkly: you could switch to netcfg or wicd instead of network manager | 04:31 |
|---|

| rich97 | ardchoille: If I simply do "mv dir ." then it complains the dir is the same as ./dir. The problem isn't with moving the files it's that the * wildcard ignores hidden files. I'm trying to do this: "mv dir/* ." | 04:33 |
|---|
| kcowolf | I've tried both Vino and x11vnc with an SSH tunnel; as soon as I try to connect to the port the connection gets closed. I can SSH into my box with no problems. Anyone have any ideas how I could track down the problem? | 04:33 |
|---|
| arghh2d2 | Quirkly: you'll need to get wicd to run in your /etc/rc.whatever folder maybe...like i said, i'm not on ubuntu right now, i'm just giving you clues | 04:34 |
|---|
| ardchoille | rich97: are you trying to do something weird like move a dir within itself? | 04:34 |
|---|
| think43 | Looks like you have install the compiz-config-manager, and then configure it | 04:34 |
|---|
| arghh2d2 | Quirkly: runlevel three is multiuser command line | 04:34 |
|---|
| googol | what is the command to fix a ntfs filesystem | 04:34 |
|---|
| ardchoille | rich97: what is the path to "dir" and the path to "."? | 04:34 |
|---|
| mrpink57 | think43: that's a pretty easy config a lot of it is preset for ubuntu anyways | 04:35 |
|---|
| Fauntix | Please help me. When I start up I get this: "fsck from util-linux-ng 2.16 /dev/sda1: clean 148406/3596288 files, 848523/14374150 blocks" what does that mean and how do i fix it | 04:35 |
|---|
| rich97 | ardchoille: No, I'm trying to move all of the contents of ./dir into . | 04:35 |
|---|
| lacita | Fauntix: it's a disk check utility. | 04:35 |
|---|
| papshmear | Fauntix, nothing's wrong | 04:36 |
|---|
| Fauntix | @lacita: ok how do i fix it | 04:36 |
|---|
| mrpink57 | its just a disk check my startup always does a fsck.jfs | 04:36 |
|---|
| think43 | mrpink57, yeah true | 04:36 |
|---|
| Fauntix | but mine freezes and doesnt move | 04:36 |
|---|
| papshmear | Fauntix, unless it says disk error don't worry about it | 04:36 |
|---|
| ardchoille | rich97: mv ./dir/* . | 04:36 |
|---|
| lacita | Fauntix: I don't think you do... It may signal a potential corruption in youre hard drive... | 04:36 |
|---|
| Fauntix | ??? | 04:37 |
|---|
| rich97 | ardchoille: Yeah, that's what I was doing. But it dosn't move .git or .gitignore | 04:37 |
|---|
| rich97 | Only folders without the . prefix | 04:37 |
|---|
| onetinsoldier | rich97 and ardchoille: how about mv ./dir/*.* . | 04:38 |

|---|
| rich97 | mrpink57: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/how-do-i-move-hidden-files-188367 It appears the only way is to tar and extract again. | 04:51 |
|---|
| Quirkly | arghh2d2 that's the one I might've been looking for | 04:51 |
|---|
| nytek_ | Quirkly: irssi | 04:51 |
|---|
| Quirkly | awesome | 04:51 |
|---|
| Quirkly | thanks :) | 04:51 |
|---|
| Random832 | Quirkly; irssi, bitchx, epic4, xchat-text | 04:51 |
|---|
| Quirkly | also arghh2d2 the wicd thing is what did the trick | 04:51 |
|---|
| Random832 | is xchat-text even around anymore? | 04:51 |
|---|
| nytek_ | Quirkly: irssi is definitely my favorite, cli irc | 04:51 |
|---|
| arghh2d2 | irssi is bitchx all grown up | 04:52 |
|---|
| Flannel | mrpink57, rich97: cp -r .[^.]* should work | 04:52 |
|---|
| Quirkly | irssi will be, once I get my music going | 04:52 |
|---|
| Quirkly | priorities you know | 04:52 |
|---|
| mrpink57 | rich97: it kind of makes sense since they're hidden but rather annoying | 04:52 |
|---|

| Linux-CLI | I'm trying to install a .deb package, however it told me that I already had a package in use (because I pressed Ctrl+C on "sudo apt-get install patch"). So I gave up & just rebooted. Still getting the error when trying to install the .deb package, any ideas? | 04:52 |
|---|
| Baloo1 | does anyone have a clue wat im talking about | 04:53 |
|---|
| Quirkly | HOLY DAMN FLASHY STUFF | 04:54 |

|---|
| jimisrvrox | this damn rt2500 has been a problem for me ever since 8.04! | 04:56 |

| b0x_ | hi, would anyone be able to help me setting up the qtorrent webui? | 04:56 |
|---|
| rich97 | mrpink57: I would but I'm trying to make an install readme, git clone clones the folders into a subdirectory with the name of the repository. I'm trying to come up with a single comment that will clone and then take all of the files out of the git created subdirectory and place them in the current directory. | 04:56 |
|---|
| jimisrvrox | well to me that stuff is wingdings | 04:56 |
|---|
| collabra | Linux-CLI: gdebi package | 04:56 |

Please note that some people find it rude to be sent a PM without being asked for permission to do so first. | 04:56 |
|---|
| arghh2d2 | jimisrvrox: rt2500 is supposed to have builtin support but it used to be used with ndiswrapper and i'm sure you could still use that | 04:57 |
|---|
| collabra | it'll install any .deb package well | 04:57 |
|---|
| jimisrvrox | yeah supposed to but meh..not a big fan of ndis.. | 04:57 |
|---|
| Baloo1 | does any one here have experience with ubuntu on a ps3 | 04:57 |
|---|
| jimisrvrox | arghh2d2: mind if I pm? | 04:57 |

| arghh2d2 | jimisrvrox: n/p | 04:57 |
|---|
| IdleOne | lacita: I told you in the other channel I am not interested in helping you. do not msg me again. thank you | 04:57 |

| meepmoop | Baloo: what you trying to do just stream media? | 04:57 |
|---|
| ThatGuyOverThere | Does anybody know how to set up a network bridge? | 04:58 |

| zy3g0 | hi | 04:58 |
|---|
| ima | x starts up fine | 04:59 |
|---|
| mrpink57 | rich97: I asked in the Gentoo IRC and they said all files under the mv command should move hidden also. Do you lack permissions? | 04:59 |
|---|
| NoTownKasper | Question: Installed Vega Strike, it runs just fine if I execute the binary from within it's folder (So I assume the problem isn't with the program itself), but if I set up a gnome link, even directly to that same binary, it fails to load...any ideas on how to fix it? | 04:59 |
|---|
| meepmoop | Baloo1:what are you trying to do with your ps3? | 04:59 |
|---|
| rich97 | mrpink57: Nope it's in my home directory. ~/Webroot to be precise | 04:59 |
|---|
| lacita | gvj: you're back. | 04:59 |
|---|
| ima | mrpink57, arghh2d2, whichever one of you it was, x starts up fine. | 04:59 |
|---|
| ThatGuyOverThere | Anybody? Network bridge? Help? | 05:00 |
|---|
| transonic | hey guys..can anyone suggest some lightweight browser | 05:00 |
|---|
| ThatGuyOverThere | transonic: You mean you don't like Firefox? Heretic. :p | 05:00 |
|---|
| Quirkly | NoTownKasper: perhaps it only likes running from within it's own folder...possibly make a script to cd to that folder, and then run it? | 05:00 |
|---|
| cfedde | there are none. Chrome is pretty fast. | 05:00 |
|---|
| Baloo1 | yeah maybe play some emus and type papers wen i need too im on an sdtv | 05:00 |
|---|
| ThatGuyOverThere | transonic: There's Epiphany. | 05:00 |
|---|
| mrpink57 | rich97: is the hold folder chmod 777? | 05:00 |
|---|
| gvj | @lacita ya i am back | 05:00 |
|---|
| ThatGuyOverThere | transonic: Don't know much about it, though. | 05:00 |
|---|
| mrpink57 | whole | 05:00 |
|---|
| lacita | gvj: any luck | 05:00 |
|---|
| lacita | ? | 05:00 |
|---|
| NoTownKasper | Quirkly: That would be a little out of my league without a walkthrough...know of one? | 05:00 |
|---|
| catorceavo | why did my sound suddenly stop working! | 05:00 |
|---|
| transonic | Thatguyoverthere: hmm..will try it | 05:01 |
|---|
| meepmoop | Baloo1:I don't really know more than how to just stream media movies/music if that's what you're looking to do I would suggest Ushare | 05:01 |
|---|
| Quirkly | NoTownKasper: a script would be a text file, .sh, with a couple commands, cd /path/to/file and then ./filename to run it | 05:01 |
|---|
| Quirkly | don't know any walkthroughs offhand, but the last step after saving that file, would be to chmod +x | 05:01 |
|---|
| Quirkly | to make it run | 05:01 |
|---|
| abhijit | how to add extra places menu in 'Places'? | 05:01 |
|---|
| rich97 | mrpink57: No a couple of the files in .git folder only have read permissions but it should still be able to copy should it not? | 05:01 |
|---|
| Baloo1 | wats ushare | 05:01 |
|---|
| NoTownKasper | Hrm, worth a try, I'll give it a whirl. | 05:01 |
|---|
| Quirkly | then umm, yeah, just run it I guess......I'm just guessing not sure if that's the problem or not | 05:01 |
|---|
| ThatGuyOverThere | Does anybody know how to set up a network bridge? Come on! | 05:02 |
|---|
| Quirkly | it's the first thing I'd try, given what you said about the situation, that's all | 05:02 |
|---|
| rich97 | mrpink57: Also it is able to copy if I don't use your cp command. Otherwise it gives me a permission error. | 05:02 |
|---|
| meepmoop | Baloo1:it's software used to stream media from your pc to your ps3 | 05:02 |
|---|
| mrpink57 | rich97: well I think you are going to need full permission to move unless you put a sudo ahead of it. However that will give full permission to root once moved not the user. | 05:02 |
|---|
| vi2 | ... | 05:04 |
|---|
| NoTownKasper | Quirkly: just to make sure I have syntax correct, (1st line) cd ~/vegastrike-0.5.0/bin/ (2nd line) ./vegastrike-32 | 05:04 |
|---|
| Fancycakes | Hey guys, I have some TOR questions. | 05:05 |
|---|
| MTecknology | I have a wireless usb dongle right now - lsusb detects it but I have no idea how to use it as a wireless device; any ideas? | 05:05 |
|---|
| Quirkly | yeah NoTownKasper that should work, if you want, test it in a terminal window first | 05:05 |
|---|
| Quirkly | I find it easier to edit/change file modes via terminal anyways, but that's just me | 05:05 |
|---|
| Fancycakes | I found a thread (rather dated) and followed its instructions to use TOR with privoxy and Firefox. | 05:05 |
|---|
| vi2 | ninguem falar portugues? | 05:05 |
|---|
| Fancycakes | But how do I know when TOR is working? | 05:05 |
|---|
| Baloo1 | ok cool my issue is tho that my windows cut off and i cant resize them so i can manage them im on JJ | 05:06 |
|---|
| think43 | ok, ubuntu is really awesome | 05:06 |
|---|
| NoTownKasper | Fancycakes: Find one of the dozen or so different "What is my IP" types of websites and check to see if your IP is being masked. | 05:06 |
|---|
| think43 | They got the latest and configured up good | 05:06 |
|---|
| ima | arghh2d2, x runs | 05:06 |
|---|
| arghh2d2 | transonic: midori, netsurf, surf | 05:07 |
|---|
| mrpink57 | Fancycakes: I do not know what TOR is but I assume it is a process you can just type top in CLI and see all processes | 05:07 |
|---|
| ThatGuyOverThere | Okay, does anybody know anything about Firestarter? I'm trying to use it for internet connection sharing. | 05:07 |
|---|
| kbrosnan | Fancycakes: http://check.torproject.org/ or https://check.torproject.org/ | 05:07 |
|---|
| arghh2d2 | ima: X runs from startx? | 05:07 |
|---|
| ima | yes | 05:07 |
|---|
| mrpink57 | rich97: I just checked you need at least write permissions | 05:07 |
|---|
| collabra | mrpink57: TOR encrypts your internet transmission | 05:07 |
|---|
| Quirkly | so, is learning emacs a worthy endeavour, or asking for a headache? | 05:08 |
|---|

| MrObvious | Hello. I need help with my printer. Basically it has something stuck in it's memory I think and it's stuck trying to print a document but nothing else will come out. It works fine with my Vista laptop though. | 05:09 |
|---|
| rich97 | mrpink57: hmmm, I might give up on this one then, they'll just have to move it with the file browser. | 05:09 |
|---|
| mrpink57 | Quirkly: at being 83mb it's too big of an install for me :) | 05:09 |
|---|
| MrObvious | It is a HP Deskjet 3940. | 05:09 |
|---|
| NoTownKasper | mrpink57: TOR is an Onion Router network, (Proxy chain) to try and browse anonymously, bypass IP blocks/country blocks and other situations where one would want to hide/mask/change their IP address. :P | 05:09 |
|---|
| ima | arghh2d2, I did create a symlink to libstdc++.so.6 called libstdc++.so.5, since 5 isn't in karmic. Don't know if that could have done it. | 05:09 |
|---|
| Quirkly | lol mrpink57 fair enough, just gotta say, it used to overwhelm me, but after reading a tutorial, I can see the power it possesses | 05:10 |
|---|
| mrpink57 | rich97: you could also chmod 755 which gives full rights to owner but only read execute to group | 05:10 |
|---|
| arghh2d2 | ima: then your gdm might be messed up...try loggin in as another user with the graphical login screen or while your in gui right now, check gdm settings | 05:10 |
|---|
| collabra | Linux-CLI: have you tried the gdebi package? | 05:10 |
|---|

| catorceavo | hello? my sound just suddenly stopped working in linux. how could they let this happen? | 05:11 |
|---|
| arghh2d2 | ima: i'm not sure either | 05:11 |
|---|
| jokehead | could anyone tell me where i can find linux boxes with 24/7 tech support and hardware damage coverage plans? | 05:11 |
|---|

| Shwack | Will CUPS ever print as well as Windows? | 05:21 |

|---|
| eduhat | Izinucs: thanks. will it still look as beautiful as the livecd/install version? | 05:21 |
|---|
| Izinucs | Shwack: depends on your printer | 05:21 |

|---|
| xixo1983 | i use the zend.bin file | 06:19 |
|---|
| gdb | rip: That won't work. It worked before because the proxy you were using is on the other side of your ISP. If you put a proxy server on your local machine, it's on YOUR side of your ISP and your traffic will remain blocked. | 06:19 |

| ima | Izinucs, alright, and if that fails, what is the command to make it replace it completely? | 06:20 |

| gdb | xixo1983: We understand that. Your software (in this case Zend Studio) is not being managed by the system. You can't use the system's package management to remove it. You will have to figure out where it is installed and remove it by hand (ie; with rm -rf). | 06:21 |

|---|
| iceroot | prettyplmm: man route man ip | 06:23 |

| hyperstream | rip, works kinda like this Application>ISP> there is where the isp blocks the PORT its using, how ever you can use a proxy to generally bypass website filter(80) by connection to the proxy(its not black listed) then use the proxy to get the content and send it back through the chain | 06:23 |

| iceroot | xixo1983: its not being used then | 06:25 |
|---|
| gdb | prettyplmm: You've not given enough information to give you a complete answer. For most intents and purposes, "route" and "ip route" mean the same thing. Like "car" and "automobile". What context are you referring to? | 06:25 |
|---|
| xixo1983 | whether i should use rm -rf /usr/local/Zend | 06:25 |
|---|
| prettyplmm | gdb: are they all using the kernel to process? i'm new to routing | 06:26 |

| enav | i mean can i use my AM2 Atlhon in that motherboard? | 06:43 |
|---|
| kinja-sheep | jguzikowski: Openbox, Blackbox. | 06:43 |
|---|
| jguzikowski | oh right, blackbox and openbox | 06:43 |
|---|
| maco | jguzikowski: for full DEs, yeah LXDE, but other than that... there are standalone window managers like Fluxbox, Openbox, etc. Enlightenment, Xmonad, twm, dwm... | 06:43 |
|---|
| jguzikowski | whats puppy linux use? | 06:44 |
|---|
| maco | kinja-sheep: i wouldnt call those DEs. they dont have associated sets of applications. theyre just window managers | 06:44 |
|---|
| maco | jguzikowski: Enlightenment 17 seems it will be a full DE when its done, while 16 and older were just window managers | 06:44 |
|---|
| jguzikowski | ohh really? i loved e16 now that im thinking about it | 06:44 |
|---|
| Broken | hello all | 06:45 |
|---|
| maco | jguzikowski: yeah when i tried e17 in 2007, they had a file manager and a music player and a few other things they were working on | 06:45 |
|---|
| jguzikowski | maco, thats awesome..any idea when that'll be available? | 06:45 |
|---|
| === user is now known as Guest10326 |
| maco | jguzikowski: e17 has been in development for 7 years right now i think. i think its also still considered alpha (because its not feature complete... those apps arent done. not because of stability...its rock solid) | 06:46 |
|---|
| jguzikowski | wow..alphas available i assume? i may wanna try this out | 06:47 |
|---|
| maco | jguzikowski: yep yep. i built it from source on debian etch in 2007, but i imagine there are debs now. there were debs in sid at the time... | 06:47 |

I've got one configured that seemed to echo the proper responses, but the webpage I have hosted on it isn't sending anything out, and the nail command I used in an attempt to test it didn't succeed. I'm so far unfamiliar with mail servers that I'm at the floundering point. | 06:49 |

| aporetic | hey guys, i have what's probably a dumb question here -- is it possible to get an ubuntu install minus all the silly gnome/kde cruft? basically i just want the newer packages etc. | 06:52 |
|---|
| maco | !minimal | aporetic | 06:53 |
|---|
| ubottu | aporetic: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 06:53 |
|---|
| pwnedulongtime | aporetic, xubuntu ...gnome and kde is silly? | 06:53 |
|---|
| maco | aporetic: just dont choose a -desktop task when doing the install | 06:53 |
|---|
| maco | pwnedulongtime: i think the idea is a command line only system | 06:53 |
|---|
| pwnedulongtime | oh | 06:53 |
|---|
| aporetic | pwnedulongtime: haha, i want to use awesome as my wm but debian's version is well over a year old | 06:53 |

| mtx_init | jaysern: when you ssh into another computer, it is a fork of the sshd daemon, which execs a shell in your name. When you log out abruptly your child process is left as a zombie and picked up by the ancestor of your parent, which then exit's you or kills your process. | 07:13 |

| mtx_init | if your computer cannot boot from a usb flash drive, then it does not have the internal instructions to bootstrap to that device. You will likely have to use a 3rd item like a cd boot loader or a hard drive and chain it to the usb drive | 07:20 |

| mkquist_ | Rowan: acc to google it does indeed... boot from usb, maybe your install usb is funked? | 07:25 |
|---|
| MTec007 | jaysern yeah it will do that but its a log | 07:25 |
|---|
| jaysern | my .py happens to write a lot of stdout, which gets saved in nohup.out | 07:25 |
|---|
| Xeddy | jj3124: You can check that by typing ls -l .themes a terminal in your home folder | 07:25 |
|---|
| kelvinella | i cant join any channel except #ubuntu | 07:25 |
|---|
| jaysern | will it keep growing and growing? | 07:25 |
|---|
| mtx_init | kelvinella: ask in #freenode, they know best | 07:25 |
|---|
| MTec007 | jaysern im not exactly sure | 07:25 |
|---|
| jaysern | ok, that's cool. I'll man nohup | 07:26 |
|---|
| jj3124 | Xeddy, ok i did that, not sure what im lookin at though | 07:26 |
|---|
| mtx_init | mehheh: im not really sure, sorry | 07:26 |
|---|
| Xeddy | kelvinella: /ns register YOURPASSWORD YOUREMAIL | 07:26 |

| Xeddy | jj3124: Okay, just type this command chmod +rw .themes | 07:26 |
|---|
| basty | Good Day | 07:26 |

| mkquist | kelvinella: then - /msg nickserv identify (password) - after you set it up with freenode... | 07:26 |
|---|
| jj3124 | 'Operation not permitted | 07:27 |
|---|
| Xeddy | jj3124: Do it as root then... sudo chmod +rw .themes | 07:27 |
|---|
| petsounds | mehheh, the last time i reinstall grub i don't change anything. | 07:27 |
|---|
| jj3124 | okay nothing popped up | 07:27 |
|---|
| basty | I just installed an ubuntu 9.10 on a Dell PowerEdge R410 - Installation done without any problems. After the reboot, it seems that grub cant find the root dir. So it is not booting - i dont even see the boot screen. It just ends with the recovery shell. Does anyone know, how to solve that Problem ? | 07:27 |
|---|
| Xeddy | jj3124: it didn't ask you for the password? | 07:28 |
|---|
| jj3124 | Xeddy, no just gave me a new line of terminal | 07:28 |
|---|
| mehheh | petsounds: so what do i do i save teh file as is adn then what | 07:28 |
|---|
| Xeddy | jj3124: is it a prompt like > or is it just a blank line? | 07:28 |
|---|
| mehheh | petsounds: just the tutoral is confusing me. i dont get it | 07:28 |
|---|
| Xeddy | jj3124: cause if its just a blank line then you'll need to type your password there | 07:28 |
|---|
| jj3124 | james@james-laptop:~$ | 07:28 |
|---|
| jj3124 | shows | 07:28 |

| Xeddy | jj3124: Okay then type: su | 07:29 |

| jj3124 | authentication failure o_O | 07:29 |
|---|
| Xeddy | O.o | 07:29 |
|---|
| jj3124 | after i typed in my password | 07:29 |

| Xeddy | Wrong password? | 07:29 |

| MTec007 | ndiswrapper -l says ssb is alternate driver but its blacklisted. says bcmwl5 is the driver and hardware is present. ubuntu network mgr says no network devices available. blacklisted ssb bcm43xx b43legacy. am i missing something, something i forgot to do? | 07:29 |
|---|
| Rowan | Sorry got called away | 07:29 |
|---|
| Rowan | I did have the USB stick in. | 07:29 |
|---|
| hyperstream | jj3124, its the wrong password. | 07:29 |
|---|
| Rowan | Maybe it was messed up, hopefully the new one will work better? | 07:30 |
|---|
| jj3124 | not wrong password..i just installed ubuntu over my xubuntu and just logged out to change session, think that has an effect on it? | 07:30 |
|---|
| hyperstream | !password | jj3124 | 07:30 |
|---|
| ubottu | jj3124: Forgot your password? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword What's the root password? See !sudo. Don't see *** in password prompts? That's normal. Sudo doesn't ask for your password? It remembers you for several minutes. Please use strong passwords, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StrongPasswords | 07:30 |
|---|
| jj3124 | !sudo | 07:30 |
|---|
| ubottu | 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) | 07:30 |
|---|
| Rowan | I remember it being a whole hell of a lot easier to install Ubuntu when I was installing it on my desktop tower when I was little. | 07:30 |
|---|
| Rowan | Little meaning 13. | 07:31 |
|---|
| hyperstream | Rowan, its even easier now :) | 07:31 |
|---|
| petsounds | mehheh, ok ill try to help. pastebin the output of sudo fdisk -l | 07:31 |
|---|
| IdleOne | Rowan: how old are you now? | 07:31 |
|---|
| jj3124 | im gonna try a reboot | 07:31 |
|---|
| jj3124 | very odd | 07:31 |
|---|
| Rowan | 20 :P | 07:32 |
|---|
| Rowan | hyperstream: I'm not having any luck now though. | 07:32 |
|---|
| sjanssen | on my old system I used nvidia's proprietary drivers, but now I'm using the same hard drive in a new system with Intel graphics. What's the command I can run to un-do the nvidia configuration? | 07:32 |
|---|
| hyperstream | Rowan, whats the issue? | 07:32 |
|---|
| Rowan | Netbook is being a PITA with trying to install. | 07:32 |
|---|
| Rowan | hyperstream: The first ISO I used with UNetbootin threw me into a terminal mode (ash) and I couldn't get anywhere from there. | 07:32 |
|---|
| Xeddy | jj3124: Just FYI it's not such a good idea to install one OS on top of the other or like reinstall the OS.. it's always a better option to just backup your personal data and format/delete the partitions. | 07:32 |
|---|
| hyperstream | Rowan, whats wrong with the normal live cd ? | 07:33 |
|---|
| Rowan | Um, I haven't got a CD drive that's what. | 07:33 |
|---|
| MTec007 | hyperstream: netbook | 07:33 |
|---|
| hyperstream | Rowan, man a usb installer? | 07:33 |
|---|
| Josh90 | Hey all | 07:33 |
|---|
| hyperstream | make* | 07:33 |
|---|
| Rowan | hyperstream: Um, I don't know that much about this stuff, honestly. | 07:33 |
|---|
| MTec007 | hyperstream: hes having issues booting from usb | 07:33 |
|---|
| hyperstream | !hello | Josh90 | 07:33 |

| tomatoes7 | what is lifere? | 07:34 |
|---|
| tomatoes7 | life-re | 07:34 |
|---|
| Rowan | I'm trying to install Ubuntu because Win7Starter is crippleware and nearly useless, and I don't want to give it my money to make it not useless. | 07:34 |
|---|
| tomatoes7 | something like that | 07:34 |
|---|
| mehheh | petsounds: i have finished teh tutoral it seemed to work i now am going to try booting my hdd | 07:34 |
|---|
| mehheh | petsounds: thanks for help | 07:34 |
|---|
| Rowan | I can't seem to get it to boot into the installer from USB. No matter what ido. | 07:34 |
|---|
| Rowan | I do rather. | 07:34 |
|---|
| petsounds | mehheh, awesome :) | 07:34 |
|---|
| hyperstream | !usb | Rowan | 07:35 |

| ubottu | Rowan: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 07:35 |
|---|
| hyperstream | Rowan, ahh | 07:35 |
|---|
| Rowan | New ISO is only at 76% right now downloading, so I have a bit of time before I get to try again, but with that happening, I've been getting frustrated. | 07:35 |
|---|
| hyperstream | Rowan, no bios support? | 07:35 |
|---|
| Josh90 | lot's of work | 07:35 |
|---|
| Rowan | there must be /some/ bios support. unetbootin /ran/. | 07:35 |
|---|
| hyperstream | Rowan, does your bios support booting from a USB device? | 07:35 |
|---|
| Rowan | hyperstream: if those had helped, I wouldn't be here. | 07:35 |
|---|
| Rowan | I'm not /sure/. | 07:35 |
|---|
| Josh90 | Sorry | 07:35 |
|---|
| MTec007 | Rowan: the only thing i can come up with is this, and i know its not helping you much: "Reboot your Aspire One with the USB stick in one of its USB sockets. When you see the BIOS screen, hit F12 to select the USB stick as the boot device. This will cause the Aspire One to boot the Debian installer from the USB stick." | 07:35 |
|---|
| hyperstream | Rowan, hard to mind read if your've seen those sites, sorry. | 07:36 |
|---|
| Rowan | MTec007: That general principle should help, I think. | 07:36 |
|---|
| jj3124 | Xeddy, got that su working now | 07:36 |
|---|
| * Rowan is not totally incompetent when it comes to computers, but prefers to follow directions that work, not ones that don't. | 07:36 |
| MTec007 | as long as you have a good burn | 07:36 |
|---|
| hyperstream | Rowan, what kinda of netbook exactly | 07:36 |
|---|
| jj3124 | Xeddy, where were we :) | 07:36 |
|---|
| Xeddy | jj3124: Great, now enter: chomd +rw .themes | 07:36 |
|---|
| === aperson is now known as APERSON |
| Rowan | Acer Aspire one, n450 processor, 1gb ram, 160gb hd. | 07:36 |
|---|
| Xeddy | jj3124: ofc, make sure you're in the /home/james folder first... | 07:37 |
|---|
| MTec007 | Rowan: i got that from this website: http://wiki.debian.org/DebianAcerOne#Install | 07:37 |
|---|
| Rowan | Brand new, just got it today. | 07:37 |
|---|
| Josh90 | I am having trouble getting root asscess | 07:37 |
|---|
| jj3124 | Xeddy, k, did that | 07:37 |
|---|
| Xeddy | !password | Josh90 | 07:38 |
|---|
| ubottu | Josh90: Forgot your password? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword What's the root password? See !sudo. Don't see *** in password prompts? That's normal.

|---|
| Xeddy | jj3124: That should do the trick, now try installing the theme | 07:38 |
|---|
| Rowan | Right. | 07:38 |
|---|
| jj3124 | Xeddy, sigh..still saying the same insufficient permissions | 07:38 |
|---|
| Rowan | I'm waiting for the ISO to download and burn now. And then I'm going to go grab my macbook so that I can stay on IRC while I do this. | 07:39 |
|---|
| Rowan | also, would removing the wireless adapter for my mouse have any effect? | 07:39 |
|---|
| hyperstream | Rowan, does it have some kind of model number? | 07:39 |
|---|
| jj3124 | Xeddy, if I browse over to where .themes is theres a big lock on it | 07:39 |
|---|
| Josh90 | No trying to put something in the file system and it says i do not have permission. Even tho i have the administrator | 07:39 |
|---|
| MTec007 | Rowan couldnt hurt to remove it | 07:39 |
|---|
| hyperstream | !sudo | Josh90 | 07:39 |
|---|
| ubottu | Josh90: 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) | 07:39 |
|---|
| Xeddy | jj3124: it still probably has the old permissions from your previous install... I'd recommend googling for how to reset folder permissions or something like that | 07:40 |
|---|
| jj3124 | Xeddy, okay, t hanks for all your help | 07:40 |
|---|
| Xeddy | jj3124: Np, good luck with the googling :) | 07:40 |
|---|
| Rowan | hyperstream, I'm not actually sure. | 07:40 |
|---|
| Josh90 | hyperstream. Thanks. | 07:40 |
|---|
| Josh90 | Still learning | 07:40 |
|---|
| Rowan | the model number is letters and numbers that don't stick well in my head. | 07:40 |
|---|
| hyperstream | Rowan, on the bottom i think (on a sticker perhaps) | 07:40 |
|---|
| jj3124 | Think I might just do a compeltely fresh intstall of ubuntu on the hard drive | 07:41 |
|---|
| Rowan | Right, k. (I'm on my netbook right now, which isn't making any of this easier, mind you.) | 07:41 |
|---|
| hyperstream | Rowan, have you seen this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AspireOne110L <-- im guessing you have | 07:41 |
|---|
| jaysern | thanks again for the nohup tip! | 07:41 |

| indus | Xeddy, any idea how i can increase sudo timeout | 07:41 |
|---|
| mrb427 | hmm im having a problem calling an octave function from a unix shell script | 07:42 |
|---|
| mrb427 | could anyone please look at the line in here that calls octave and see if you have any advice to offer? http://codepad.org/BfHZ1ibT | 07:42 |
|---|
| mrb427 | its under the comment "generate stats from octave" | 07:42 |
|---|
| Rowan | hyperstream: I have, though I'm trying to install a newer version than that. | 07:43 |
|---|
| Xeddy | indus: sudo nano /etc/sudoers | 07:43 |
|---|
| Xeddy | indus: Use your arrow keys and look for passwd_timeout and just change the value :) | 07:44 |
|---|
| mtx_init | owwwwwwwwwww, since when do you touch the sudoers file. | 07:44 |
|---|
| Rowan | It's a little too late for me to install it tonight since I've been having trouble with it, I think. | 07:44 |
|---|
| mtx_init | visudo people | 07:44 |
|---|
| indus | Xeddy, thanks, does it accept 'infinity' ?:)) | 07:44 |
|---|
| indus | mtx_init, Xeddy yes i believe sudo wont work, visudo also seems not to work in ubuntu | 07:45 |
|---|
| Xeddy | indus: I'm not sure... btw, I think it's better you use visudo | 07:45 |
|---|
| indus | !visudo | 07:45 |
|---|
| mtx_init | sudoers can become corrupt if you dont use visudo | 07:45 |
|---|
| mtx_init | it works fine on 9.10 for me | 07:45 |
|---|
| mtx_init | :q | 07:45 |
|---|
| Rowan | alright, I've removed the mouse thingy. | 07:46 |
|---|
| mtx_init | you just need to call it with sudo | 07:46 |
|---|
| indus | !info visudo | 07:46 |
|---|
| ubottu | Package visudo does not exist in karmic | 07:46 |
|---|
| indus | nvm | 07:46 |
|---|
| Rowan | 91% | 07:46 |

| gdb | visudo is part of sudo | 07:46 |
|---|
| c_nick | !info wineheaders | 07:46 |
|---|
| ubottu | Package wineheaders does not exist in karmic | 07:46 |
|---|
| mtx_init | it should be standard in /usr/sbin/ | 07:47 |
|---|
| indus | hi | 07:47 |

| indus | what should the xorg file say for the ati open drivers, ?ati or radeon | 07:47 |

| Rowan | UNetbootin is still just downloading files. If it doesn't work this time, I'm just going to give up and wait for another day, I think. | 07:52 |

| Geekpirat | Hey guys. I made a litte update script via bin/bash. It keeps me asking "do you want to install this and that [y/n]". How can I disable that to get rid of the user interaktion | 07:54 |
|---|
| ardchoille | Geekpirat: pastebinning the script might help | 07:56 |
|---|
| ardchoille | !paste | 07:56 |
|---|
| ubottu | For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 07:56 |
|---|
| Rowan | alright, reboot and install time. | 07:56 |
|---|
| Geekpirat | thank you | 07:56 |
|---|
| Geekpirat | will try that | 07:56 |
|---|
| ardchoille | Geekpirat: But, if your script is calling some apt-get function, you may not want to disable that as it might be the system keeping your packages managed properly | 07:58 |
|---|
| Geekpirat | ardchoille: I only used some apt-get install, update and upgrade functions | 07:59 |
|---|
| Geekpirat | ardchoille: I wonder how this could be bad...as I will answer them with "yes" anyways... | 08:00 |
|---|
| ardchoille | geekbuntu: right, and I'll bet the user interaction is apt-getdoing its job | 08:00 |
|---|
| ardchoille | Geekpirat: why not use a bash alias instead of a script? | 08:01 |
|---|
| mrb427 | can anyone help me fix this line of script? for k in $(ls *.cropped.png); do octave -q --eval 'gen_pers_stats("$k")'; done | 08:01 |
|---|
| ardchoille | Geekpirat: this is what I use: alias updateall='aptud && aptug && echo "Update complete"' | 08:02 |
|---|
| Geekpirat | ardchoille: Because I used different stuff in the script. Downloading Opera from the website via wget and in the future it should configure the DNS entries (uning opendns) and stuff like that | 08:02 |
|---|
| ardchoille | Geekpirat: Ah, nice | 08:02 |
|---|
| Myrtti | Geekpirat: the most disasterous scripts seen on this channel have "assumed yes" | 08:03 |
|---|
| ardchoille | Geekpirat: it's not good to allow a script to assume yes, better to watch things | 08:03 |
|---|
| Akos | good morning | 08:03 |
|---|
| ardchoille | That's why I use a bash alias and not a script | 08:03 |
|---|
| JumboJellyfish | http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=paolo# | 08:04 |
|---|
| Geekpirat | ardchoille: I understand it is a bit dangerous. But I will try the script first in a VM many times before using it. | 08:04 |
|---|
| ardchoille | mrb427: why not: for k in *.cropped.png; ? | 08:05 |
|---|
| Geekpirat | ardchoille: Even if the script makes damages its not THAT problematic. because its a script only run once after a clean reinstall of ubuntu. | 08:05 |
|---|
| ardchoille | geekbuntu: That'sthe same thing I heard from the developer of Automatix | 08:06 |
|---|
| Geekpirat | ardchoille: It should only do the stuff I will do anyway on my laptop autonaticly | 08:06 |
|---|
| ardchoille | Geekpirat: Ok, it's your system | 08:06 |
|---|
| ardchoille | mrb427: you don't need the "ls" bit because the loop will loop through each file ending in .cropped.png anyway | 08:07 |
|---|
| Geekpirat | ardchoille: In fact, I ruin my system nearly once a month ^^ so, why not ruin it twice... | 08:07 |
|---|
| mrb427 | ardchoille: yeah, but then i still have the problem that k is in double quotes at the end of the line, so it puts in the char k and not the variable k | 08:08 |
|---|
| ardchoille | mrb427: use $k to specify the variable k | 08:08 |
|---|
| ardchoille | "k" will yield a "k" | 08:08 |
|---|
| ardchoille | mrb427: example: for k in *.cropped.png; do echo $k; done | 08:09 |
|---|
| mrb427 | ardchoille: i still seem to have the same problem : / | 08:09 |
|---|
| mrb427 | ardchoille: yeah but the problem is that the $k is in double quotes in my script | 08:11 |
|---|
| mrb427 | ardchoille: http://codepad.org/pom53JRM | 08:11 |
|---|
| tomatoes7 | i ran "make" on ffmpeg and its been spitting out text for 15 minutes...what the muck | 08:12 |
|---|
| tico | hello, I install mac osx on my pc i am running ubuntu karmic how to change grub2 to be able to boot macOSx partition? | 08:12 |
|---|
| tomatoes7 | it must be stuck in an infinite loop | 08:12 |
|---|
| ardchoille | mrb427: example: for k in *.cropped.png; do echo "$k"; done | 08:12 |
|---|
| tomatoes7 | can you run osx on a pc? | 08:13 |
|---|
| ardchoille | mrb427: your problem is this: $(ls *.cropped.png) | 08:13 |
|---|
| tico | tomatoes7 yes | 08:13 |
|---|
| ardchoille | mrb427: use for k in *.cropped.png; instead | 08:13 |
|---|
| mrb427 | ardchoille: yeah i tried changing it to for k in *.cropped.png and i still get the same error | 08:13 |
|---|
| tico | i can explain how to | 08:13 |
|---|
| tomatoes7 | cool...now i don't have to buy a mac | 08:13 |
|---|
| ttyX | tomatoes7: yes you can | 08:13 |
|---|
| tico | i am getting crazy with grub2 | 08:14 |

| ardchoille | tomatoes7: that is illegal and so not allowed here as conmversation | 08:14 |

|---|
| mrb427 | ardchoille: it works when i run it just in the command line, with a string in stead of $k | 08:16 |

| ardchoille | mrb427: That means nothing, many times a command line code will not successfully execute in a script | 08:16 |

| indus | home, try deleting xorg conf , then do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 09:31 |
|---|
| arand | adifire: What you do in that case is make the 30_os-prober script unexecutable: "chmod -x /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober" the run update-grub, which won't read the 30_ script and not add windows, then when you want it back you just make the 30_ script executable again with +x (in the chmod command) and then run update-grub again. | 09:31 |

| Slart | pweezy: you mean the "cannot login as root to gnome"-setting? | 09:34 |
|---|
| arand | indus: /boot/grub/grub.cfg is the equivalence, but you shouldn't edit that... atm the creation of the lists are all baked into the helper scripts | 09:34 |
|---|
| pweezy | Slart: no i mean the "cannot log in as root in bash" setting | 09:34 |
|---|
| arand | indus: So there is no proper equivalence, no. | 09:35 |
|---|
| Slart | pweezy: hmm.. not sure about that really.. make sure root has a valid login shell in /etc/passwd | 09:35 |
|---|
| Slart | pweezy: of course I have to throw the obligatory "you can use sudo -i to get a root shell" at you | 09:36 |
|---|

|---|
| knxville | mind-gi, tried updating your graphic drivers? | 10:37 |
|---|
| obaid | exactly 5 minutes ? | 10:37 |
|---|
| tparcina | obaid: iptables isn't complicated for me, just I don't understand why Ubuntu loads this configuration. | 10:37 |
|---|
| mind-gi | yes, exactly 5 minutes. | 10:37 |
|---|
| collabra | mind-gi: check your screensaver | 10:37 |
|---|
| mind-gi | i haven't updated my graphic drivers. how can i do that? | 10:38 |
|---|
| obaid | mind-gi, not graphics card | 10:38 |
|---|
| obaid | check your screensaver settings, check power settings | 10:38 |
|---|
| mind-gi | thanks, it works. it was screensaver! ;-) | 10:38 |
|---|
| collabra | ur welcome | 10:38 |
|---|
| tparcina | knxville: Me either. I have check /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/iptaload and it says iptables-restore < /etc/iptables.rules | 10:38 |
|---|
| knxville | mind-gi, if its every 5 minutes, it's because your screensaver is dimming every 5 minutes.. as obaid said, its screensaver or powersaver | 10:38 |
|---|

| Guest38330 | I will try.timed out. | 10:42 |
|---|
| Guest38330 | yes | 10:42 |
|---|
| obaid | turtle^s0up, if that is possible, it would be stored in gconf, walk through gimp in gconf-tools | 10:42 |

|---|
| collabra | ChaosR: keep tryin',.... i don't know enough for that one,.... try #debian channel or maybey ##linux | 10:43 |
|---|
| obaid | Guest38330, this is out of the channel's scope, but it doesn't matter, does your WRT54GL release IP on either WLAN or LAN interfacec ? | 10:43 |
|---|
| obaid | ChaosR, ? | 10:44 |
|---|
| ChaosR | I have a problem with my boot sequence, several daemons are not started, plus rc.local is never executed. Any way to debug and/or fix this? | 10:44 |
|---|
| turtle^s0up | obaid: i'm on KDE, is there a way i can access the configuration files from cli or without installing gconf-editor? | 10:44 |
|---|
| Kartagis | how do I get xmms2 gui? | 10:44 |
|---|
| obaid | i dont know about KDE, never used it turtle^s0up | 10:44 |
|---|
| obaid | ChaosR, daemons would log errors, can you check them | 10:45 |
|---|
| turtle^s0up | obaid: thanks for the hint | 10:45 |
|---|
| ChaosR | obaid: checking every log from every started program is a bit extensive | 10:45 |
|---|
| ChaosR | obaid: the scripts are simply never run | 10:45 |
|---|
| ChaosR | obaid: somewhere the boot process goes like meh and stops running, and trows in my kde-login | 10:46 |
|---|
| obaid | ChaosR, if you have added some services to start on boot, you should use update-rc.d | 10:46 |
|---|
| ChaosR | obaid: rc.local seems pretty default to me, plus stuff was working a week ago | 10:47 |
|---|
| obaid | ChaosR, checking your logs are the only way to see what is the problem | 10:47 |
|---|
| ChaosR | obaid: where are the boot logs, I can't seem to remember where they are | 10:48 |
|---|
| obaid | /var/log | 10:48 |

| ChaosR | which file | 10:48 |
|---|
| jokehead | what does the "spin down hard disks" in power management do? what are the advantages and disadvantages? | 10:48 |
|---|
| obaid | ChaosR, there might be lots of log files, check dmesg, daemon.log | 10:49 |
|---|
| ChaosR | obaid: checked those, nothing special there | 10:49 |

| tom_ | Sorry for spamming. Having IRC troubles on another channel | 11:17 |
|---|
| freakynl | some times | 11:17 |
|---|
| Dantonic | I'm having issues ripping CDs to flac. The file size of the flac rips is way too big, bigger than the wav counterpart. I've tried using both sound juicer and Rubyripper. Any idea what's going on? | 11:17 |
|---|
| tom_ | Dantonic: Bigger FLACs than WAVs makes no sense | 11:18 |
|---|
| freakynl | Dantonic: no... but i would guess something is upsampling it (ie from 16kHz to 24 or from 44.1 to 48 etc) | 11:18 |
|---|
| Dantonic | I though it just had to do with sound juicer at first, but I just tried with rubyripper and I have the same problem :( | 11:19 |
|---|
| ChaosR | ok, this is amazing, the boot process doesn't even get to the login screen, only kdm works (not tty1-6), and only the current kernel is willing to boot, no other | 11:19 |
|---|
| Dantonic | freakynl, what's the regular sample rate of a CD? | 11:21 |
|---|
| freakynl | 44.1 / 16 | 11:22 |
|---|
| Dantonic | freakynl, do you use any particular software? | 11:23 |
|---|
| Dantonic | do you rip to flac? | 11:23 |
|---|
| freakynl | Dantonic: no i rip to ogg or acc. usually use grip | 11:25 |
|---|
| freakynl | personally, after 192k ogg (with aotuv extentions) any higher doesn't do anything for me. perhaps with classical music but i don't listen to it | 11:25 |
|---|
| ChaosR | ok, can anybody help me with this odd boot problem: No /etc/rc*.d/ script gets executed, tty1-6 don't get to the login screen, kdm does get started, only the current kernel works | 11:25 |
|---|
| Dantonic | freakynl, here's a "settings" line from sound juicer: "audio/x-raw-int,rate=44100,channels=2 ! flacenc name=enc" is it supposed to have 2 channels? | 11:26 |
|---|
| freakynl | Dantonic: yea left and right would be nice :) | 11:26 |
|---|
| Dantonic | ok :P | 11:26 |
|---|
| ChaosR | oh, and the last line on the onscreen bootlog is ureadahead-other terminated with status 4 | 11:26 |
|---|
| indus | ChaosR, what version of ubuntu is this | 11:27 |
|---|
| ChaosR | karmic | 11:27 |
|---|
| indus | ChaosR, happened since when | 11:27 |
|---|
| ChaosR | about 1 week ago, I noticed cherokee didn't get started | 11:27 |
|---|
| freakynl | ChaosR: hmm might be that the init script crashes/stops because of that error | 11:27 |
|---|
| indus | !info cherokee | 11:27 |
|---|
| ubottu | cherokee (source: cherokee): Very fast, flexible and easy to configure web server. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.99.19-1build1 (karmic), package size 176 kB, installed size 640 kB | 11:27 |
|---|
| crow_ | I installed googleearth using synaptic, but it's not in the menu. What do I do? | 11:28 |
|---|
| ChaosR | so what I did is switch to lighttpd, same problem | 11:28 |
|---|
| indus | ChaosR, only the current kernel ? what do you mean | 11:28 |
|---|
| ChaosR | when I pick any other kernel | 11:28 |
|---|
| ChaosR | it boots | 11:28 |
|---|
| indus | ChaosR, looks like an update screwed up your thing | 11:29 |
|---|
| ChaosR | but gets stuck on a black screen with 1 _ | 11:29 |
|---|
| indus | ChaosR, a display update probably | 11:29 |
|---|
| ChaosR | even when I remove splash and quiet | 11:29 |
|---|
| ChaosR | indus: possible, but how does that explain the rc*.d scripts not starting | 11:30 |
|---|
| === FeiRuoWa is now known as zz_FeiRuoWa |
| indus | ChaosR,or maybe an initramfs update | 11:30 |
|---|
| indus | ChaosR, try running sudo update initramfs | 11:30 |
|---|
| Ujjain | How do I see if I'm running Debian or Ubuntu? | 11:30 |
|---|
| indus | ChaosR, update-initramfs | 11:30 |
|---|
| indus | ChaosR, maybe that helps i dont know about startup scripts | 11:31 |
|---|
| Ujjain | What does this mean? hdparm -tT /dev/md0: read(2097152) returned 24576 bytes, Timing buffered disk reads: , read() failed: Input/output error | 11:32 |
|---|
| ChaosR | Ujjain: lsb_release -i | 11:32 |
|---|
| Ujjain | Ubuntu. | 11:32 |
|---|
| Ujjain | I think one of my disk drives or the raid controller is broken. | 11:32 |
|---|
| ChaosR | indus: how would I go about fixing this, if this doesn't work, reinstall? | 11:32 |
|---|
| Ujjain | wow, even 'ls' says: ls: reading directory .: Input/output error :| | 11:33 |
|---|
| indus | ChaosR, did you try the command i said | 11:33 |
|---|
| ChaosR | indus: yes, and I will reboot in a sec | 11:33 |
|---|
| indus | ChaosR, i suggest running an update from the console if you get to one | 11:33 |
|---|
| arand | Ujjain: It may just be a specific folder being corrupt? | 11:33 |
|---|
| ChaosR | indus: getting to a console is easy, kdm still boots on my topmost kernel (seen from grub) | 11:33 |
|---|
| ChaosR | from kdm I can login, and open konsole | 11:34 |
|---|
| indus | ChaosR, yu probably did a partial uprade? and gort messed up | 11:34 |
|---|
| ChaosR | anyways, I'm going to see if this works, and if not, reinstally time | 11:34 |
|---|
| indus | ChaosR, yeah i guess | 11:35 |
|---|
| ChaosR | I guess I should stop hacking my ubuntu as much as I do, it tends to break (though usually in a fixable fashion) | 11:35 |
|---|
| Ujjain | md0, is software raid, right? | 11:35 |
|---|
| indus | ChaosR, good luck | 11:35 |
|---|
| ChaosR | thanks | 11:35 |
|---|
| indus | ChaosR, what hacking did you do really | 11:35 |
|---|
| ChaosR | indus: custom kernel, load of backport repositories | 11:36 |
|---|
| indus | ChaosR,ok then my advice is null and void | 11:36 |
|---|
| dreki | whats the best way to mount an iso? | 11:36 |
|---|
| ChaosR | though, still shouldn't break as badly as it has | 11:36 |
|---|
| indus | ChaosR, whya custom kernel? whats special | 11:37 |
|---|
| ChaosR | indus: brain fuck scheduler, preempt, 1000hz ticks, no dynamic ticks | 11:37 |
|---|
| ChaosR | besides that stock ubuntu kernel | 11:37 |
|---|
| indus | ChaosR, brain what?is that the name of smething? | 11:37 |
|---|
| indus | ChaosR, nvm that, what is 1000 ticks | 11:38 |
|---|
| ChaosR | indus: hehe, read on kernel material, basically all I did was make the desktop more responsive, nothing special | 11:38 |
|---|
| nowonmai | dreki: mount xxxx.iso /mnt -o loop -t iso9660 | 11:39 |
|---|
| ChaosR | its more tweaking than hacking what I did | 11:39 |
|---|
| crowx | how do I install googleearth? | 11:39 |
|---|
| ChaosR | indus: I was planning on opening a special desktop-kernel repository | 11:39 |
|---|
| ChaosR | anyways, rebooty time now, brb | 11:40 |
|---|
| bazhang | !googleearth | crowx | 11:40 |
|---|
| ubottu | crowx: Google Earth is now available, for free (only as in price), for Linux, too. To download it see http://earth.google.com/download-earth.html - A package for Ubuntu is available in the !Medibuntu repository | 11:40 |
|---|
| crowx | bazhang: I downloaded the bin | 11:40 |
|---|
| crowx | but what else should i do? | 11:40 |
|---|
| ociugi | how to add user to samba | 11:42 |
|---|
| airtonix | crowx, have you read the page you obtained the file from ? (it would be a start to investigating what to do next) | 11:42 |
|---|
| Gangrel | anyone knows if azureus can handle rapidshare downloads? | 11:42 |
|---|
| airtonix | ociugi, read this through asn see if its what you want : http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/create-a-samba-user-on-ubuntu/ | 11:42 |
|---|
| bazhang | Gangrel, how would that relate to Ubuntu? check the azureus faq | 11:42 |

| collabra | ociugi: smbpasswd -a <username> | 11:45 |
|---|
| hyperstream | ociugi, you couldnt find it on google?! | 11:46 |
|---|
| BeGuy1 | what is the command to quit after runing "top" | 11:46 |
|---|
| hyperstream | ociugi, man smbpasswd | 11:46 |
|---|
| hyperstream | BeGuy1, CTRL + C i think does the trick | 11:46 |
|---|
| BeGuy1 | hyperstream is there other way | 11:46 |
|---|
| ociugi | <hyperstream> i found it but i can't add the user | 11:47 |
|---|
| hyperstream | BeGuy1, is it in the man pages at all ? | 11:47 |
|---|
| hyperstream | BeGuy1, one sec | 11:47 |
|---|
| hyperstream | BeGuy1, its in the man file, says hit q | 11:47 |
|---|
| ociugi | but this time i've tried smbpasswd -a -m compname | 11:47 |
|---|
| ociugi | it works | 11:48 |
|---|
| hyperstream | ociugi, its not the computer name- its the account on the windows box | 11:48 |
|---|
| ociugi | <hyperstream> ok | 11:48 |
|---|
| hyperstream | ociugi, you may have to add the username to the user accounts in xp, im not too sure | 11:49 |
|---|
| collabra | ociugi: it's not the account on the windows box,... it's the usershare on the linux box | 11:49 |
|---|
| collabra | ociugi: don't forget to edit the config file in /etc/samba | 11:51 |
|---|
| ociugi | <collabra> yes, my problem is i can't print my document. i assume that the samba did not recognised the user | 11:51 |
|---|
| terminhell | ello ello | 11:52 |
|---|
| collabra | ociugi: you're probably right,.. but don't forget to edit the config file in /etc/samba to allow for your printer to be shared,... it's not shared by default | 11:52 |
|---|
| ociugi | <collabra> actually i am the one connecting to winXP printer server | 11:53 |
|---|
| collabra | ociugi: i see,.. then it should work | 11:54 |
|---|
| ociugi | <collabra> once i print my document the printer keeps asking me the username and password | 11:54 |
|---|
| collabra | ociugi: does it allow you to print? | 11:55 |

| bazhang | Shogoot, try vmware and virtualbox then decide | 11:56 |
|---|

| plitter | hey, was wondering if rhythmbox had a file where it stored all its radio stations, have a laptop and want to get all the radiostations from that to my home computer, but i dont know where to start looking for it.... someone help?:) | 11:57 |
|---|
| Akos | plustax: I believe it's in ~/.gnome2/rhythmbox it should be a .xml file | 11:58 |
|---|
| Akos | plustax: unfortunately I can't check that now, I'm not in front of an ubuntu machine | 11:59 |
|---|
| collabra | ociugi: under xp,...there is a way to turn off or on encryption for authentication,...i think it's turned off by default,... your linux client is probably using encryption,... or the other way around,... check your xp system for the type of authentication | 11:59 |
|---|
| terminhell | i might be able too | 11:59 |
|---|
| ociugi | <collabra> ok tnx | 11:59 |

| shreymech | how to control the audio of different applications in ubuntu just like vista.. plzzz help me | 12:03 |
|---|
| Akos | shreymech: what version of Ubuntu are you running? | 12:03 |
|---|
| docmax | hello, what is the difference btw. manual and non-manual installations in synaptic? | 12:03 |
|---|
| shreymech | Akos: i m using 8.10 | 12:04 |
|---|
| terminhell | Akos: sorry, in the middle of recompiling kernel :p slowing me down | 12:04 |
|---|
| rww | docmax: automatically-installed (non-manual) packages are marked for automatic removal when nothing depends on them. | 12:04 |
|---|
| Akos | terminhell: it's fine, just don't forget to tell plustax | 12:05 |
|---|
| Buxnaman | i cant install .run file error = Verifying archive integrity...tail: cannot open `+6' for reading: No such file or directory | 12:05 |
|---|
| shreymech | Akos: but i don't think that this thing is available in newer versions.. my friends r using 9.10 | 12:05 |
|---|
| Akos | shreymech: I believe ubuntu 8.10 doesn't have that feature, you'd be requiered to upgrade to Ubuntu 9.10 | 12:05 |
|---|
| rww | docmax: the idea is that if you install a package that depends on a bunch of other packages, the one you actually want is marked as manually installed, the depends are marked automatic, and then they all go away tidily if you decide to remove the package you originally installed. | 12:06 |
|---|
| shreymech | Akos: but i don't think that this thing is available in newer versions.. my friends r using 9.10 | 12:06 |
|---|
| Akos | shreymech: no need to re-post, I can see your lines (: In the latest version of ubuntu, Ubuntu 9.10, this feature is available under the Sounds options | 12:06 |
|---|
| rww | shreymech: in 9.10, right-click the volume control applet, click Sound Preferences, click the Applications tab. Akos and shreymech are correct, it's a new feature. | 12:06 |
|---|
| rww | shreymech: wait, I fail at reading. Akos is correct ** | 12:07 |

|---|
| shreymech | rww: bcz i m currently on 8.10 and now to go on 9.10 i have to upgrade 9.04 and than to 9.10 :( thats too long procedure | 12:09 |
|---|
| shreymech | :( | 12:09 |
|---|
| rww | shreymech: Nope. 9.10 uses a newer version of Pulseaudio that supports it; 8.10 doesn't have that version, since major package updates don't happen after release. | 12:09 |
|---|
| rww | shreymech: well, you'll have to upgrade at some point. 8.10 is only supported until April... | 12:10 |
