[00:00] <daftykins> Krai: what are you trying to install?
[00:00] <mlissner> terminhell: I do have a setting called "Init Display First" which can be set to either 'pci' or 'pci express card'. No idea what it means though.
[00:00] <terminhell> mlissner: sounds like a hardware prob for sure if its black from the moment you hit the power button
[00:00] <koshari> Krai actually thats a hidden file called .linux
[00:00] <terminhell> mlissner: thats what you need to do...
[00:00] <Krai> http://beta.eset.com/linux
[00:00] <daftykins> mlissner: that's a BIOS entry to choose a primary graphics card to be either PCI-Express or normal PCI
[00:00] <crazyeric> how do i find the desktop in the file system, i booted from the install disc and go the live session user and am trying to back some things up so i can do a fresh install
[00:00] <terminhell> mlissner: set it to pci express card
[00:00] <Krai> you can c file in that link
[00:00] <daftykins> crazyeric: ~/Desktop
[00:00] <crazyeric> nevermind
[00:00] <crazyeric> fiound it...
[00:01] <Krai> ESET NOD32 Antivirus for Linux Desktop runs on the following distributions: Debian, Fedora, Mandriva, RedHat, SuSE, Ubuntu and other RPM and DEB package manager based installations. Both 32-bit and 64-bit (AMD64/EMT64) architectures are supported
[00:01] <zvacet> does anyone use lxde I need some halp with it
[00:01] <Krai> but the file can be downloaded is .linux
[00:01] <Krai> have you any opinion about it ?
[00:01] <terminhell> zvacet: ive used it a little in the past
[00:02] <terminhell> Krai: a .linux file? sounds fishy
[00:02] <Krai> http://beta.eset.com/linux
[00:02] <daftykins> Krai: no .deb download or repo to add?
[00:02] <zvacet> do you remember how to manage network and users & groups
[00:02] <Krai> no daftykins
[00:02] <fixer_33> hi everyone
[00:02] <Krai> you can see in that link wha i am talking about
[00:02] <capron> Kardos,  Is thee no good open antivir too use ?
[00:02] <daftykins> Krai: "chmod +x" it then "./file.linux"
[00:03] <terminhell> zvacet: its just a de. you still gotta load up on apps for that stuff. natively it doesnt ship with such apps
[00:03] <overmacht> Krai; ubuntu is safe forever, no need AV anymore.
[00:03] <Krai> overmacht:  i know but i want to know how to install a .linux file
[00:03] <goddard> geirha ok now I get operation not supported
[00:03] <acovrig> is there a cmd that lets me ssh as user1, and see what the title of the topmost window (on :0.0) of user2 is?
[00:03] <Krai> main purpose of tryin to install for me just learn this
[00:04] <zvacet> I tried to set network with pppoeconf and it failed
[00:04] <mlissner> terminhell: I put in that setting, then put in the card, but I still can't get anything to come up on the display.
[00:04] <fixer_33> i've got a really big problem with mdb2 library because when I use query method to make query to database i see that this method is undefined
[00:04] <Krai> daftykins:  then like a bin file ?
[00:04] <fixer_33> i need help
[00:04] <daftykins> Krai: might be ja
[00:04] <terminhell> Krai: ive never heard of a .linux file. im not sure how to install it.
[00:04] <daftykins> Krai: or a script
[00:04] <terminhell> mlissner: your not putting the card in with the power on right?
[00:04] <Krai> i am trying bb
[00:04] <mlissner> terminhell: Right-o
[00:05] <geirha> goddard: That's a common warning when copying to windows filesystems. Windows filesystems doesn't support the linux-permission scheme, so you get operation not supported when trying to set permissions on the moved files.
[00:05] <terminhell> was that a yes or no? lol
[00:05] <mlissner> terminhell: that's a correct - I'm powering off before adding/removing any hardware.
[00:05] <Krai> daftykins:  it works
[00:05] <goddard> geirha so what do I do it doesn't appear to work
[00:06] <daftykins> \o/
[00:06] <Krai> it has a gui like a bin file
[00:06] <daftykins> :) cool
[00:06] <geirha> goddard: The files aren't moved?
[00:06] <Krai> this commands started its installation gui
[00:06] <goddard> geirha oh sorry they are
[00:06] <Krai> then we learn a .linux file same with a bin file :))
[00:06] <terminhell> mlissner: does that card require power? newer cards actualy require power from the powersupply, plugged directly onto it
[00:06] <overmacht> Krai; has been reading manual? look http://download.eset.com/manuals/ESET_EAVLIN_4_UserGuide_ENU.pdf
[00:06] <geirha> goddard: It's safe to ignore those warnings. mv is just trying to make the destination files have the same permissions as the source files.
[00:07] <q0k> Does any member of this talking room have Ubuntu installed at a Fujitsu laptop? If so, please tell me, I have several questions about it.
[00:07] <seanbrystone> using 9.10 here, anyone know a good link to how i could possibly move all .mozilla files, like cache and whatnot to a encrypted file/disk using truecrypt
[00:07] <acovrig> is there a cmd that lets me ssh as user1, and see what the title of the topmost window (on :0.0) of user2 is?
[00:07] <goddard> geirha I have one last problem maybe you could help me with if you would be so kind
[00:08] <divXjunky> Hi all. I am on ubuntu 9.10, and when I tried to update with the update manager, I got an dpkg error when it was reading the database. I tried "dpkg --configure -a" to fix it, however, a second update attempt also failed. Anybody around who knows what this problem might be? thanx!!
[00:08] <goddard> geirha what if I want to automate this process and have apache run this how would I set it up
[00:08] <acovrig> is there a cmd that lets me ssh as user1, and see what the title of the topmost window (on :0.0) of user2 is?
[00:09] <Krai> overmacht:  no
[00:09] <Krai> i wil read. is there anything need to know ?
[00:09] <geirha> goddard: You want apache to move files to your windows machine? Also mount the windows share?
[00:09] <pino> apt
[00:09] <pino> sudo
[00:09] <capron> divXjunky,  Do you get the same problem using apt-get ?
[00:09] <pino> sudo su
[00:09] <Krai> we found installation commands with the help of daftykins
[00:09] <goddard> geirha the share is already mounted
[00:10] <divXjunky> capron, Yes I had the same results with apt-get
[00:10] <goddard> geirha I just have it run a command and change the file permissions for the source folder to www-data
[00:10] <mlissner> terminhell: interesting theory...you had me worried for a second, but no, no power needed.
[00:10] <q0k> Does any member of this talking room have Ubuntu installed at a Fujitsu laptop? If so, please tell me, I have several questions about it.
[00:10] <B3rz3rk3r> !ask | q0k
[00:11] <q0k> Does any member of this talking room have Ubuntu installed at a Fujitsu laptop?
[00:11] <capron> divXjunky,  Have you tried apt-get autoclean
[00:11] <geirha> goddard: By apache though, you mean a php-script? and you trigger the move from a web page?
[00:11] <goddard> geirha yes
[00:12] <terminhell> mlissner: silly question, but you do have the monitor securly plugged in to the card, not the onboard
[00:12] <B3rz3rk3r> q0k, you dont seem to understand, ask a question to do with the problem that you are having.. not a general one. That way if anytone knows the answer to your problem they will reply.. understand?
[00:12] <goddard> geirha normally this works great, but for some reason it is giving me trouble with the windows pc
[00:13] <mlissner> terminhell: yep.
[00:13] <kuna236> anyone know how to update a Matshita disk drives firmware within Linux?
[00:13] <q0k> Does any member of this talking room have Ubuntu installed at a Fujitsu laptop? I want to know how did the installation go. Did you have any problems with some hardware? Can you give links to the additional drivers which you had to find to do a successful install?
[00:13] <geirha> goddard: Perhaps you're not quoting right?
[00:13] <mlissner> terminhell: tried both though...neither works when the nvidia card is plugged in.
[00:13] <goddard> geirha maybe i will check again
[00:14] <mlissner> q0k: You might just try the live CD. That'll give you a good idea of what works and what doesn't on your laptop.
[00:14] <terminhell> mlissner: wow, hmm, ive got no idea. you may have to go to another forum, nvidia forums or something. Could be faulty hardware. or a simple bios setting ive long forgotten
[00:15] <divXjunky> capron, same result after apt-get autoclean, again the update fails at reading the database.
[00:15] <zmanning> can someone tell me how to see the version a repository app?
[00:16] <q0k> " mlissner>	q0k: You might just try the live CD. That'll give you a good idea of what works and what doesn't on your laptop. " - I thank you for this suggestion. This will most likely be the first thing to do for me. But previous experience of some people could let me have more drivers and be more ready to what happens...
[00:16] <kuna236> zmanning: apt-cache showpkg packageName
[00:16] <n4cvx> Dell mini inspiron now working 100% with ubuntu 9.10 after ordering from Dell with Ubuntu and then replacing the Dell version of Ubuntu which didn't seem to be too handy.
[00:17] <mlissner> terminhell: Oh well, thanks anyway. Good to have a second opinion.
[00:17] <zmanning> kuna236, awesome! thanks!
[00:17] <kuna236> zmanning: no prob
[00:17] <terminhell> mlissner: no prob. good luck!
[00:17] <mlissner> q0k: Gotcha. Well, good luck.
[00:18] <capron> divXjunky, strange problem ,  too bad it did not work,  I am totaly cluess now when your database is corrupt ,  I guess the apt-get check also did not help.
[00:18] <ViridianFire> Ok can anyone help me to get my heaphone jack to work?
[00:18] <MrSandman> RTFM

[00:19] <MrSandman> thank you very macho
[00:19] <crazyeric> so i got to the dashboard without the flickering but now it says xbmc needs hardware accelerated opengl; do i uninstall X server and reinstall or what?
[00:19] <kuna236> ViridianFire: one of my headphone jacks is always muted by default when I install a new distro... maybe check your alsa settings
[00:19] <ViridianFire> I did check alsa mixer
[00:19] <war> how do you change permissions to a hard drive so you can read and write
[00:19] <ViridianFire> it shows up but it does not have a volume bar
[00:20] <kuna236> war: what part of your hard drive?
[00:20] <nico__> chmod 755 /path
[00:20] <war> thanks
[00:20] <kuna236> war: nm
[00:20] <divXjunky> capron, Thanx for your help, I'll keep looking for a fix, but I think it's far more likely that my old laptop harddrive  is going to fail one of these days... Could be that the dpkg db is being read from a corrupted sector.

[00:35] <philipwnz> Can someone help me to add a custom line in grub.cfg that will start my existing ubuntu install?
[00:35] <grendal_prime> where can i find what version of a program is in what distrobution?
[00:35] <jrib> grendal_prime: packages.ubuntu.com
[00:36] <terminhell> w00t its raining
[00:36] <philipwnz> Can someone help me to add a custom line in grub.cfg that will start my existing ubuntu install? I'm using debian now but I have Ubuntu 9.10 installed which I want to start with grub2
[00:36] <VCoolio> philipwnz: can't help, but in any case you should not edit grub.cfg but /etc/default/grub
[00:36] <CyberaX2195> surely running update-grub , should find it
[00:36] <jrib> philipwnz: grub2 automatically scans for other distros when you run update-grub
[00:36] <wweasel> I have a frustrating problem with my Ubuntu server install. It periodically goes into some sort of suspend state, where it doesn't respond to ping/ssh, etc. and, more strangely, doesn't keep the system time advancing.  If I touch a keyboard key it immediately wakes. Any advice? (even a log file to look at to try to figure out what's up)
[00:37] <VCoolio> grendal_prime: if by 'distribution' you mean different linux distros check distrowatch.com
[00:37] <Out_Cold> wweasel, is it a a desktop install or server?
[00:38] <terminhell> wweasel: id turn off all power saving modes
[00:38] <wweasel> Out_Cold, server install (I've tried #ubuntu-server, but it's pretty low activity)
[00:38] <philipwnz> Ubuntu 9.10 is on a separate partition and update-grub didn't found it
[00:38] <Out_Cold> terminhell, i don't think there is power save modes on them. i never had to change
[00:38] <wweasel> terminhell, where would I look to see if any are enabled? I don't think there is any enabled, at least to my knowledge.
[00:39] <terminhell> i remember, theres a kind of hidden power option in the ubuntu server
[00:39] <suprsonic> my son managed to get Xwindows to dsplay 1/4 of my screen
[00:39] <terminhell> i forget the location of it, but its fixable
[00:40] <terminhell> you may want to start in the xorg.conf
[00:40] <suprsonic> how do i get it to reset to full screen?
[00:40] <Out_Cold> wweasel, which release?
[00:41] <wweasel> terminhell, Out_Cold: If it helps any, this is on a laptop. But it's obviously connected to AC. So it's possible Ubuntu is trying to do something power-saving.
[00:41] <wweasel> Out_Cold, 9.10
[00:41] <Out_Cold> wweasel, if it's a laptop yes it may have laptop power settings
[00:41] <terminhell> wweasel: it could be bios related
[00:42] <wweasel> terminhell, Checked, nothing there. Also thought it might be fault ACPI related, so I tried booting with acpi=off, no improvement
[00:42] <philipwnz> Can someone help me to add a custom line in grub.cfg that will start my existing ubuntu install? I'm using debian now but I have Ubuntu 9.10 installed which I want to start with grub2. I TRIED as suggested to run update-grub but it didn't found the ubuntu install which is on separate partition. Please help me as I don't have much time
[00:42] <Seeker`> !google
[00:42] <raden_work> i have installed ubuntu server 2 times and it never asks me to set a password for root ? am i missing something
[00:42] <Out_Cold> !root
[00:42] <terminhell> philipwnz: do you have 2 different grub versions installed in seperate places???
[00:43] <Dabian> Encrypted DVD wont play, even though I installed libdvdread4 and ran the script.  Ubuntu 9.10, I think.
[00:44] <Out_Cold> raden_work, you 'shouldn't' run as root but if you need to set, sudo -i, then passwd
[00:44] <philipwnz> terminhell: yes, both are grub2, one in my debian partition which i'm running right now and the other in the ubuntu partition
[00:44] <terminhell> philipwnz: >.< you dont need more than 1 grub install
[00:45] <philipwnz> Terminator: well the second one came with debian so...
[00:45] <LetsGo67> I am tired of using Windows 7, but I am tired on my fan *not* turning on in Ubuntu!  When will this be fixed?  Acer Aspire 5315 which worked in 9.04.
[00:45] <Out_Cold> LetsGo67, is there a bug for it?
[00:46] <grendal_prime> VCoolio: na basicaly i need to upgrade to 8.10 to get what i need
[00:46] <terminhell> philipwnz: only thing i can think of is delete one of them and then update the one left
[00:46] <grendal_prime> thanks guys
[00:46] <Dabian> Is UBUNTU unable to show encrypted DVD's?
[00:46] <LetsGo67> No clue. Out_Cold.  I assume yes.  Regardless, it doth frustrateth me.
[00:46] <Dabian> ~? dvd
[00:46] <Out_Cold> Dabian, some dvds just dont work
[00:46] <philipwnz> can I just make only the ubuntu grub bootable, so when i boot the pc it will run the grub installed in ubuntu which will let me chose to start ubuntu
[00:47] <Out_Cold> LetsGo67, search for the bug, report your system and add your input
[00:47] <Trek> Dabian, you'll need some packages in the Medibuntu repos
[00:47] <aam_> Anyone using Lucid Lynx?
[00:47] <Dabian> Trek: I got libdvdread4, but I guess thats not enough?
[00:47] <goddard> geirha i have tried everything i am out of ideas
[00:47] <terminhell> philipwnz: yes. remove the one from the othe os
[00:47] <Out_Cold> aam_, i tried it on my netbook and it failed for X
[00:48] <aam_> interesting
[00:48] <kuna236> Dabian: run sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh
[00:48] <goddard> geirha will the www-data group be able to access a network if I mount it as user BOB
[00:48] <goddard> will the www-data group be able to access a network if I mount it as user BOB
[00:48] <Dabian> kuna236: That was in the guide, so I already did that.
[00:48] <kuna236> Dabian: oh, sorry
[00:48] <LetsGo67> OH AND what should I do to stop hackers on a server?
[00:49] <Dabian> kuna236: No, thanks for the idea. :)
[00:49] <capron> philipwnz, yes you can but grub2 used is not that easy too config  if it dont work right from start
[00:49] <Dabian> kuna236: I bet it would have fixed the problem in more than 80% of the cases. :)
[00:49] <crazyeric> is this SMART Dats 'Disk Failure is Imminent" something i should be taking seriously?
[00:50] <raden_work> Out_Cold, so i cannot log in as root at all ?
[00:50] <Trek> Out_Cold, we won't explain how to access root
[00:50] <goddard> will the www-data group be able to access a network if I mount it as user BOB
[00:50] <Trek> sorry, raden_work
[00:50] <Dabian> Out_Cold: Are you saying that Ubuntu is unable to play certain DVD's, so I have to go to my parents place or somewhere else to watch it?
[00:50] <Out_Cold> raden_work, i showed you how to.. but enabling root log in is 'not recommended'
[00:50] <kuna236> Dabian: blashphemy!
[00:51] <kuna236> haha
[00:51] <Trek> raden_work, we won't help you access root.  most things that root can do can be done under "sudo"
[00:51] <jjwdesign> lool
[00:51] <raden_work> Trek, wow thanks for the help
[00:51] <Dabian> raden_work: Its for your own good.
[00:51] <Out_Cold> Dabian, i have experienced it with some encrypted ones.... maybe there is a fix?
[00:51] <raden_work> uhuh sure... stupid !!!
[00:51] <Trek> raden_work, at least we won't help you here, I think its against the CoC...  at least it is for ubuntuforums.org
[00:52] <goddard> will the www-data group be able to access a network if I mount it as user BOB
[00:52] <Dabian> raden_work: Why do you want root access anyhow?  Thats usually the receipt on how to screw up your system?
[00:52] <Trek> !attitude | raden_work
[00:52] <koshari> Dabian have you tried vlc to play your dvd?
[00:53] <Dabian> koshari: There is something broken with VLC
[00:53] <raden_work> Dabian, cause I have alot of thing I need to install etc  and i dont need to be typing sudo ever 2 min so anyway found out how
[00:53] <trism> philipwnz: according to the grub2 article on the gentoo wiki, you should just be able to add an entry in the debian grub2 to /boot/grub/core.img of ubuntu's grub, and it will load ubuntu's grub when you select it
[00:53] <Trek> raden_work, you can install multiple packages at once in one command...
[00:53] <trism> philipwnz: http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Grub2#Chainloading_GRUB2_from_GRUB
[00:53] <Trek> raden_work, like this:
[00:53] <Out_Cold> raden_work, sudo apt-get install file1 file2 file3
[00:54] <Trek> raden_work: sudo apt-get install packageOne packageTwo packageThree
[00:54] <jrib> raden_work: or if you want some sort of root shell, read the link ubottu is about to send you about « sudo -i »
[00:54] <Out_Cold> Trek, :p
[00:54] <Trek> raden_work: and so on and so forth
[00:54] <jrib> !sudo > raden_work
[00:54] <Trek> Out_Cold: :P back at you
[00:54] <Dabian> I think raden_work prefers to work with a root shell, nothing we can do. :))
[00:55] <Trek> i mean, sure I have a root login on my comp, but thats because I needed it to install the server software through the GUI (I don't really like CLI :P)
[00:55] <narendra> bazhang: hi sorry to disturb you, I have just made a script to download .deb files and package that into a single installable unit - have a look http://lug-iitd.posterous.com/project-deb-bundle-input-needed-zeroth-versio
[00:55] <Dabian> Out_Cold: I guess I'll have to accept that my DVD-night is ruined, lol.
[00:55] <jrib> Trek: you can, but it's not really necessary at all
[00:56] <narendra> Anybody here to reveiw this article on zipping .deb files for custom installation http://lug-iitd.posterous.com/project-deb-bundle-input-needed-zeroth-versio
[00:56] <Trek> jrib: I made a statement, I know its not really necessary.  But the server is my desktop box, so... yeah, I need to be able to use it :P
[00:56] <Out_Cold> i always just sudo -i
[00:56] <Flashlite> I'm gonna have dual boot soon
[00:57] <terminhell> i forget ubuntu makes root login pretty hard to do
[00:57] <Flashlite> I had no Computer for 7 months  erg
[00:57] <jrib> Trek: you don't *need* a root password set
[00:57] <Out_Cold> terminhell, it because it's so easy for noobs to use root to break their sys
[00:58] <Out_Cold> and ubuntu is noob #1 choice of OS
[00:58] <teddymills> what are some common uses for a Ubuntu cloud?
[00:58] <Trek> jrib: i know that, PLEASE cease telling me this... i know theres no need for root, but oh well I have it
[00:58] <Flashlite> I like it b/c its stable thank yu very much
[00:58] <terminhell> Out_Cold: true, im using Archlinux myself, but after feeling tied down by too many restrictions of buntu i moved on. but i like to help anyways =D
[00:58] <Out_Cold> teddymills, multiple computers working as one
[00:58] <Dabian> Thanks for the help ... depressing result, but thanks anyhow.
[00:59] <Out_Cold> teddymills, would probably be good for CUDA
[00:59] <teddymills> What are some common uses for a Ubuntu Cloud?
[00:59] <Flashlite> a cloud is what they used to find really large prime number isn't it?
[00:59] <Out_Cold> CUDA is used to do huge calcs
[00:59] <Flashlite> CUDA?
[01:00] <coollinuxdude> hello there ubuntu people
[01:00] <Flashlite> hello cool dude
[01:00] <`mOOse`> I am an ubuntu mOOse!
[01:00] <coollinuxdude> haha
[01:00] <goddard> will the www-data group be able to access a network if I mount it as user BOB
[01:00] <Flashlite> lets make a gigantic ubuntu cloud and do nothing with it
[01:00] <terminhell> goddard: depends on existing permissions
[01:00] <Out_Cold> Flashlite, http://www.nvidia.com/object/cuda_home.html#
[01:00] <teddymills> We have 25 Dual Xeons 1U servers. Finding primes I dont think is a good use. Besides the have much better clouds working on that..What are somre common uses fro a Ubuntu Cloud that Joe Average ISP would use it for?
[01:01] <Flashlite> thnx
[01:01] <coollinuxdude> does anyone here have gnome shell and if so did you have a serious problem where it tells you in the terminal that there is a bug
[01:01] <goddard> terminhel what does that mean
[01:01] <Goliath> hello
[01:01] <andreas> hi
[01:01] <coollinuxdude> terminal
[01:01] <Goliath> i want to update my laptops bios
[01:01] <coollinuxdude> my bad
[01:01] <blakkheim> teddymills: that sounds nice
[01:01] <jrib> goddard: try and see. By default everyone should have read permissions, so yes...
[01:01] <Trek> not here, Goliath
[01:01] <Trek> !ot | Goliath
[01:01] <andreas> someone who speaks german
[01:01] <Flashlite> find primes and youll get rich!
[01:01] <blakkheim> !de
[01:01] <goddard> jrib i have tried a lot of different methods and it isn't working
[01:02] <n16h7f0x> when will firefox 3.6 will get in ubuntu repos?
[01:02] <jrib> goddard: well what are the permissions on the share?
[01:02] <coollinuxdude> ubotu was that directed at me?
[01:02] <terminhell> 3.6 is fexy
[01:02] <goddard> jrib i mounted it in gnome by going to network then opening the shares then right click mount
[01:02] <`mOOse`> yea forget 3.6 if you don't want probs
[01:02] <`mOOse`> wait  for 3.7
[01:03] <n16h7f0x> i see
[01:03] <n16h7f0x> thx
[01:03] <terminhell> new ver of ff is decent
[01:03] <Dabian> ?regionset
[01:03] <terminhell> didnt notice much diff
[01:03] <Flashlite> I wonder if my GPU is CUDA enabled brb
[01:03] <Dabian> regionset?
[01:03] <goddard> jrib i looked at permissions in terminal and it says it is owned by user BOB and is in group BOB
[01:03] <war> is there anyway to get data off a drive that was formatted for mac?
[01:03] <crazyeric> when i upgrade from jaunty to karmic do i have to reinstall alsa as well?
[01:03] <pheonix> #alton
[01:04] <goddard> jrib but i right click the file and it says it cant read the permissions because it is a windows share
[01:04] <marnold> Dabian, please run sudo dpkg --get-selections | grep dvd
[01:04] <jrib> goddard: what does ls -ld /path/to/mount return?
[01:04] <marnold> pastebin output
[01:04] <goddard> jrib i looked at permissions in terminal and it says it is owned by user BOB and is in group BOB
[01:04] <jrib> goddard: that's not the answer to my question :/
[01:04] <goddard> -rwx------
[01:05] <jrib> goddard: then that's why.  Only your user can read, write, and execute
[01:05] <terminhell> hmmm
[01:05] <goddard> jrib how can I add a group?
[01:05] <terminhell> i smell a chmod
[01:05] <jrib> goddard: what kind of mount is this exactly?
[01:05] <subspider> hi
[01:05] <goddard> smb:// to xp
[01:06] <jrib> goddard: ask the samba channel how to change permissions on mounts
[01:06] <Out_Cold> teddymills, i think that it's just used for huge amounts of processing that can be split with workloads... if you don't have a use, offer it for research.
[01:06] <war> is there anyway to get data off a drive that was formatted for mac?
[01:06] <goddard> jrib you dont know?
[01:06] <terminhell> what if he chown'd it to his www-data user
[01:06] <jrib> goddard: no
[01:06] <jrib> goddard: I imagine there is a proper samba-specific way
[01:06] <Dabian> OK .. my problem with the DVD might be related to region locking.
[01:07] <pheonix> how do i get a girl to love me
[01:07] <goddard> jrib i will give it a go but no one is even there really
[01:07] <narendra> hi all, may you look at my article
[01:07] <crazyeric> how do i reinstall alsamixer?
[01:07] <terminhell> pheonix: tell her about your 16th level paladin
[01:07] <crazyeric> i dont seem to have it
[01:08] <Dabian> Is there a way to tell my DVD-drive to discard region restrictions?
[01:08] <terminhell> crazyeric: hit up synaptic
[01:08] <jrib> goddard: the howto documentation linked from their official site has several sections with "permission" in the title that are probably worth reading
[01:08] <terminhell> crazyeric: and search for it. or maybe as easy as sudo apt-get install alsamixer
[01:09] <dsundar> Cant get my bluetooth running on ubuntu 9.10 . cant detect it
[01:09] <crazyeric> remind me never to upgrade ever again
[01:10] <goddard> jrib i will give it a go
[01:10] <dsundar> already got kbluetooth
[01:10] <r0b0tchicken> I just updated my kernel today to 2.6.31-19 (karmic), and my previous lm-sensors output has been lost.    it87 loaded in modprobe , hardware is it8705f,  p4vgm m/b.  Any thoughts?   I realize that it has changed from sensors.conf to sensors3.conf, but I had no trouble until this kernel update, and I do not know enough to know exactly what changed, that I can fix.  Any help appreciated
[01:10] <Max-P> Hi, I have an USB sound card with volume control that doesn't work. It jumps from mute to extra loud at 8%. Any idea? Thanks
[01:11] <renegaid> no matter what I do I ant get ubuntu to look good. the menus look like windows 3.1 but I would like it to look as crisp as windows 7. is that possible?
[01:11] <terminhell> renegaid: look at gnome-look.org for themes
[01:11] <SuperDefenderX> regen: Sounds like a Metacity issue.
[01:12] <tking> Hi, I just upgraded my machine to 2.6.31-19 through the update manager, but when going to install the drivers for my graphics chipset(GMA500/Poulsbo) via the recommended method on the wiki, it says I should hold my kernel version at 2.6.31-14. I'm not sure what is a safe way to do this through synaptic + having it boot up to -14 in grub by default...
[01:12] <renegaid> I tried a bunch of themes. I find the window borders lack definition
[01:12] <terminhell> karmic is still using 2.6.31 kernel?
[01:12] <tking> terminhell: yes
[01:12] <r0b0tchicken> terminhell, yes, 2.6.31-19 as of today.
[01:13] <gormop> hi, can anyone try to access www.openstreetmap.org and tell me if they see the map or only a grey "paypal donation" page? folks at #openstreetmap are asleep, apparently...

[01:19] <melow01> Hi, I just purchased a new HP Voodoo DNA and I need to pickup a USB Wifi... is there one that specifically works well with Ubuntu?

[01:35] <q0k> Hi. I've been using Windows XP for several months. I've already bought it, together with MS Office 2002... Why  should I choose Ubuntu?
[01:35] <astrocub> q0k: do you do gaming?
[01:35] <q0k> No.
[01:35] <astrocub> q0k: are you into anything artistic?
[01:35] <astrocub> creating of art that is
[01:36] <q0k> No.
[01:36] <astrocub> then security
[01:36] <renegaid>  
[01:36] <q0k> I sometimes listen to music, sometimes watch videos, do some software development - that is my creative activity
[01:37] <astrocub> q0k: p://pctechmojo.com/20-reason-why-i-switched-to-linux/
[01:37] <crazyeric> q0k why not use both
[01:38] <tmorton> i'm trying to compile some code that uses the kernel headers, but the file it's trying to include isn't in /usr/include/linux (but it is in /usr/src/linux/inlcude/linux)
[01:38] <kevin__> is there a program for ubuntu that can mount iso images and use them like a virtual drive?
[01:38] <nightrid3r> mount
[01:38] <tmorton> yet when I try to compile with -I/usr/include/linux/include, it gives me an error about "expected specifier-qualifier-list before ‘__u32’"
[01:38] <tmorton> how am i supposed to force GCC to use the up to date kernel headers?
[01:39] <ZykoticK9> kevin__, if your talking about an actual ISO file then check out loop mounting -- it's built in :)
[01:39] <capron> q0k stay using XP
[01:39] <tmorton> kevin__, mount -o loop disk1.iso /mnt/disk
[01:39] <tmorton> where /mnt/disk is where you want to mount it
[01:39] <faileas> !lucid

[01:41] <kevin__> sorry, I just switched to ubuntu today, how do i open the console?
[01:41] <deever> kevin__: Alt-F2 xterm
[01:41] <deever> f.e.
[01:41] <astrocub> q0k: http://www.tuxmagazine.com/node/1000117
[01:42] <gormop> kevin__, or from the application menu
[01:42] <astrocub> q0k: those are some general reasons why you would want to switch
[01:42] <gormop> its named "terminal" in the german translation
[01:42] <EDinNY> I just replaced the internal vid card with an Nvidea card.  It seems to have the wrong driver.  Where can I find the menu to install the restricted drivers in 9.10?
[01:42] <astrocub> q0k: you don't have to completely switch, you can use both if you want: http://wubi-installer.org/
[01:43] <jargal> my shell console not working: error(* could not access PID file for nmbd)
[01:43] <astrocub> q0k: that will install ubuntu alongside your windows system
[01:43] <q0k>  why should i tryUbuntu?
[01:43] <milktash> hello
[01:44] <jargal> help me my shell console not working: error(* could not access PID file for nmbd)
[01:44] <q0k> mention my name when answering, why should i try Ubuntu?
[01:45] <nightrid3r> q0k: why not ?
[01:45] <gormop> q0k, because you want to? ;)
[01:45] <faileas> q0k: well, why do you want to try something other than what you're running now?
[01:45] <milktash> I have a panel which used to have a button to show my available wireless connection I mistakenly removed it. I cant find it to add it back or any app in my system that allows me to view available connections
[01:45] <ZykoticK9> q0k, this is offtopic for this channel, perhaps ask the same question in #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:45] <jargal> help me my shell console not working: error(* could not access PID file for nmbd)
[01:45] <q0k> i don't want to try all linuxes i'm serious
[01:45] <milktash> i presume it is network-manager
[01:46] <milktash> but cant find the damn thing
[01:46] <deever> q0k: try it or let it be...it's a bit a futile question...;)
[01:46] <milktash> how do i open it in terminal
[01:46] <milktash> ?
[01:46] <gormop> milktash, i like "wicd" waaay better than the network-manager
[01:46] <faileas> milktash: try starting 'nm-applet' from the run menu or terminal (iirc)
[01:46] <hyperstream> !repeat jargal

[01:47] <jargal> ok
[01:47] <CAPcap> i have removed kde by the instructions under !puregnome but I still have a Kubuntu loading screen on start up and it takes forever. how do get rid of it?
[01:47] <benny_puppy> Does anyoone here use gnumeric?
[01:48] <cfedde> not so often any more.
[01:48] <milktash> cool but if i remove the ubuntu network-manager will it not affect anything? or can I install wicd while network is still installed?
[01:49] <hyperstream> jargal, what command are you running? or are you trying to open a terminal ?
[01:49] <ZykoticK9> milktash, MANY people prefer wicd over Network Manager, but understand that this channel supports Network Manager...
[01:50] <gormop> milktash, it *should* not destroy anything to remove network-manager and then install wicd, at least it didnt for me, but i had a LAN cable attached at the time
[01:50] <benny_puppy> I have a cell with a formula in it and it shows a #DIV/0! (divide by zero) error message because I have not filled out the other cells. How do I get rid of the error message so I do not see it?
[01:51] <hyperstream> jargal, ?
[01:51]  * gormop dons protective goggles for supporting wicd ;(
[01:51]  * gormop erm... ;)
[01:52] <gormop> well, good night everybody
[01:52] <renegaid> can I run a windows vm in ubuntu?
[01:52] <milktash> thanks
[01:52] <sebsebseb> renegaid: yes
[01:52] <renegaid> what program?
[01:52] <sebsebseb> renegaid: as long as you got enough RAM and such
[01:53] <ZykoticK9> renegaid, VirtualBox is popular
[01:53] <renegaid> I have too much ram
[01:53] <daftykins> renegaid: virtualbox / vmware / etc
[01:53] <sebsebseb> renegaid: Virtualbox is good, get it from website/webserver if want USB support, otherwise the open source version in repo is fine
[01:53] <renegaid> vmware is free for linux?
[01:53] <milktash> so if I remove network-manager to install wicd will I maintain my current connection?
[01:53] <sebsebseb> renegaid: Virtualbox has two versions both are free as in price
[01:53] <sebsebseb> !virtualbox | renegaid
[01:54] <sebsebseb> renegaid: VMware player and server are free as in price, the other versions are paid for
[01:54] <Nighthawk82> now using mythbuntu is tehre anyway to have it run smoother with the channels using Notebook for it
[01:54] <sebsebseb> renegaid: that factoid should get changed a bit really,  and by non-free they mean as in software freedom
[01:54] <sebsebseb> !freedom | renegaid
[01:55] <milktash> I got this after entering  nm-applet : ** (nm-applet:3787): WARNING **: <WARN>  applet_dbus_manager_start_service(): Could not acquire the NetworkManagerUserSettings service as it is already taken.  Return: 3
[01:55] <scap_> Has anyone heard of a problem where fdisk and cfdisk say I have a partition on a disk (i.e. /dev/sda1 should be there) but /dev/sda1 doesn't exist
[01:55] <milktash> what does that mean?
[01:55] <bigtom21485> if anyone knows how to overclock a linux-based desktop running ubuntu 9.10, that'd be great
[01:56] <scap_> milktash: who?
[01:56] <faileas> overclocking is a hardware thing i think
[01:56] <Darkben> overclocking is a hardware thing
[01:56] <faileas> milktash: it means that nm-applet is already running
[01:57] <kevin__> when i try to run a .exe file, i right click it, and then select "open with wine windows program loader" ubuntu seems to ]
[01:57] <bigtom21485> lol ive seen it done mildly with software in windows, but linux im not sure about.  and yes if i really wanna fast i gotta up my hardware but i was just curious
[01:57] <kevin__> start the program, but then it quits
[01:57] <milktash> ok so how do i make it open the app for me to see? seeing how i lost it from my panel?
[01:57] <sebsebseb> renegaid: Virtualbox is rather straight forward, but  here's a tip when it comes to  creating the virtual hard disk, use the default dynamically expanding and put like 40GB as the size,  that's just size the vm thinks it has
[01:57] <histo> bigtom21485: what type of hardware?
[01:58] <bigtom21485> athalon x64 2 ghz
[01:58] <bigtom21485> dual-core
[01:58] <bigtom21485> dell e531...cheat computer but prolly has some potential

[02:00] <jolaren> Hello. I'm trying to install ubuntu server form usb.. but it keeps saying Could not find kernel image: Linux boot:
[02:00] <sebsebseb> kevin__: which program?
[02:00] <sebsebseb> !server | jolaren
[02:00] <Nighthawk82> how can i make mythtv run the tv channels smoothly without crashing when running on a notebook?
[02:00] <milktash> How do I open an already running app from the terminal?
[02:00] <j0hndoe> question about docks for ubuntu. im lookin for one that works w/o a composite manager like compiz. i have to disable compiz so i can remote into 9.10 (known bug). so i have to disable it fairly often. i know docky requies this. i think awn does as well. so there are the 2 major/good docks. anyone recommend anything else?
[02:00] <bullgard> '~$ sudo mount -o loop -t squashfs /home/detlef/Naturwissenschaften/Mathematik/sage-4.3.1.sqfs  /usr/local/sage-4.3.1/ ; mount: /dev/loop0: can't read superblock'. What did I do wrongly?
[02:01] <jolaren> sebi`; I know of this... I'm trying to install the server.. the iso.. I've installed a dousin of servers before this
[02:01] <sebsebseb> jolaren: ok, but #ubuntu-server is where you should probably be asking really
[02:02] <melow01> Are there any Wifi brands that are more linux-friendly? Linksys, Netgear, D-Link?
[02:02] <sebsebseb> melow01: good question
[02:02] <crazyeric> does anyone know how to reroute the sound from the phono plug to HDMI, it works in xbmc but all other apps the sound comes out of the phono jack
[02:02] <histo> melow01: it depends more on chipset
[02:02] <j0hndoe> crazyeric: give it a rest
[02:02] <histo> melow01: than brand
[02:03] <melow01> sebsebseb, histo oh ok
[02:03] <histo> melow01: intel based chipsets are mostly built right in to kernel. Broadcomm chipsets are a pita because you need the firmware but its easy to install with restricted drivers manager.
[02:03] <sebsebseb> melow01: so you want to buy something that is supported?
[02:04] <nightrid3r> melow01: i use a cheap sweex that works out of the box
[02:04] <melow01> sebsebseb, histo I see.  That helps
[02:04] <faileas> j0hndoe: hmm, cairodock sorta works (it gets a black background when you do) without a composite manager - i use it with xcompmgr mostly though
[02:04] <histo> melow01: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported
[02:04] <beejeebus> is there a ppa for mono 2.6 for ubuntu 9.10 ?
[02:04] <melow01> sebsebseb, histo, I'm looking at the Ubuntu Help page and trying to make a decision:
[02:04] <melow01> sebsebseb, histo, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported
[02:05] <sebsebseb> beejeebus: maybe
[02:05] <melow01> sebsebseb, histo, I'll check out the Intel chipset and see where it gets me... thanks!
[02:05] <sebsebseb> beejeebus: why you want it?
[02:05] <histo> melow01: you're going to want somethign that says yes for works out of the box.
[02:05] <milktash> Does anyone know what I need to type into the terminal to open a running applet?
[02:05] <r0b0tchicken> upgraded kernel to 2.6.31-19  lmsensors will not work with my it8705F, used to show fan1/2 speeds, and temp 1/2/3,  (p4vgm motherboard), worked fine up until kernel update, now will not work.  Any ideas?
[02:05] <beejeebus> sebsebseb: monodevelop 2.2
[02:05] <histo> melow01: that is for hassle free. The others will work with some user interaction
[02:06] <kevin__> when i try to run a exe under wine, i get a module not found error
[02:06] <blakkheim> kevin__: /join #winehq
[02:06] <CAPcap> i have removed kde by the instructions under !puregnome but I still have a Kubuntu loading screen on start up and it takes forever. how do get rid of it?
[02:06] <melow01> histo, I've got a couple machines running Ubuntu and my netbook was having issues detecting the Wifi so I figured for my desktop computer... I may as well research the subject before buying something off the shelf
[02:07] <blakkheim> CAPcap: look through your installed packages for kde stuff and get rid of them
[02:07] <drhe|skt> hello all. i just tried to format a new hard drive. i tried to format to ext3.
[02:07] <melow01> histo, my netbook (HP Mini 311) came with a Broadcom Wifi and I still have yet to configure it
[02:07] <CAPcap> blakkheim like in synaptic? k thanks
[02:07] <Dr_Willis> CAPcap:  thats just a usplash graphics i imagine.   its possible some usplash files dident get removed properly
[02:07] <r0b0tchicken> melow01, have you tried the netbook remix on your netbook?  acer aspire one, picked up the wifi right off the bat
[02:07] <drhe|skt> this is the output after i type "df"
[02:07] <drhe|skt> /dev/sda1            1442145212 1339318048  29570364  98% /media/alpha
[02:07] <drhe|skt> /dev/sdb             1442147796    202364 1368688504   1% /media/bravo
[02:07] <blakkheim> CAPcap: you can use that but i was going to use something better like dpkg+aptitude
[02:07] <melow01> r0b0tchicken, I tried netbook remix and it wouldn't boot via USB
[02:07] <drhe|skt> so the /dev/sdb   <-- i notice it has no 1 behind it. like sdb1. is that okay?
[02:08] <Dr_Willis> !usplash
[02:08] <melow01> r0b0tchicken, I kept getting a blinking cursor when trying to boot
[02:08] <histo> melow01: yeah do you have a network jack?
[02:08] <melow01> r0b0tchicken, Ironically though, Jolicloud worked on my netbook
[02:08] <r0b0tchicken> melow01, :(  dang, i had great luck with it, also put it on a dell inspiron that wouldnt boot with regular ubuntu.    also , 9.04 nbr i like a LOT more than 9.10 nbr
[02:08] <ZykoticK9> drhe|skt, /dev/sdb did you format the drive without creating a partition?  it is possible to do it actually, NOT a good idea I'd imagine.
[02:08] <melow01> histo, yes, I have NICs on all my machines
[02:08] <histo> melow01: you can get it working with a thumb drive if you don't have internet access with a wired connection
[02:09] <sebsebseb> beejeebus: uhmm  not sure why want to make Mono apps,  some people really don't like Mono,  and their are other ways to make software :)  oh and I thinik #mono might exist
[02:09] <histo> melow01: the broadcomm just needs the firmware installed. There are howtos on the forums for how to get it going if you have no way of getting online with the pc.
[02:09] <drhe|skt> ZykoticK9, i think. i can tell you the command i used. also, that drive is brand new. just installed it today. let me get that command i used. hold a min
[02:09] <melow01> r0b0tchicken, Its been a while since I troubleshot it, but I just remembered why Netbook Remix wouldn't boot.  It was because of the Broadcom Wifi card somehow interferring
[02:09] <beejeebus> sebsebseb: $dayjob. thanks, i'll try #mono
[02:09] <drhe|skt> sudo mkfs.ext3 /dev/sdb
[02:10] <sebsebseb> beejeebus: maybe better to use something else though to make software :)
[02:10] <sebsebseb> beejeebus: I mean probably better to
[02:10] <r0b0tchicken> melow01, that is odd, i thought they had all the wifi card drivers in the nbr... :(  dang.  what do you run on it now? still having wifi issues?
[02:10] <histo> !broadcom | melow01
[02:10] <melow01> histo, thanks, I've been using Jolicloud now for a couple months and everything works ok for now
[02:10] <histo> melow01: right in there is how to do it without internet access.
[02:10] <agent47> hello can anyone help me to install network manager applet in my ubuntu genome 9.10
[02:10] <beejeebus> sebsebseb: sure, once i find something else to pay my mortgage
[02:11] <sebsebseb> beejeebus: oh you got a paid job making Mono apps?
[02:11] <ZykoticK9> drhe|skt, you are suppose to create a partition first, either with fdisk from cli or using gparted GUI app.  -- you should probably create the partition and reformat
[02:11] <melow01> histo, yeah, I remember  finding that link a month or so ago and doing some troubleshooting but still couldn't get UNR running from USB
[02:12] <melow01> histo, one solution was to physically remove the Wifi card from the machine and then UNR would boot
[02:12] <sebsebseb> melow01: histo uhmm  broadcom is not good according to this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserDays/01232010/ChoosingHardwareThatWorks
[02:12] <melow01> histo, I may need to spend some more time with it
[02:12] <drhe|skt> ZykoticK9, well i am connected through terminal. this is like a minimal install. so gparted gui i can do with a live iso. but i want the experience of doing it from the command prompt.
[02:12] <bullgard> '~$ sudo mount -o loop -t squashfs /home/detlef/Naturwissenschaften/Mathematik/sage-4.3.1.sqfs  /usr/local/sage-4.3.1/ ; mount: /dev/loop0: can't read superblock'. What is wrong in this command?
[02:12] <Ashfire908> Hi, I'm wondering, what are the two games on here? http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/910features    Under Play games, the one on the left and the one bottom center.
[02:12] <hodanlo> where's the sound contol for unbuntu 9.10?
[02:12] <Dr_Willis> drhe|skt:  the 'fdisk' command lets you do it then. :)
[02:12] <ZykoticK9> drhe|skt, "sudo fdisk /dev/sdb"
[02:13] <hodanlo> Where's the sound controller for unbuntu 9.10?
[02:14] <Ashfire908> hodanlo: Right click the speaker in the notification area anD click Sound Preferences?
[02:14] <drhe|skt> hrmmm. you have a tut for that? fdisk
[02:15] <hodanlo> Ashfire908, That disappeared.
[02:15] <drhe|skt> im googliing now
[02:15] <klappi> drhe|skt: man fdisk shows the tutorial
[02:15] <histo> drhe|skt: cfdisk is a pretty straight forward partitioner
[02:15] <Ashfire908> hodanlo: System -> Preferences -> Sound
[02:15] <edbian> I'm trying to set up vsftpd.  How can I make it so that when my local user uploads files that they are 0666 file permissions?
[02:15] <pheonix> how do i make a source code?
[02:15] <renegaid> is there anything for ubuntu to convrt video

[02:16] <Ashfire908> pheonix: usally ./configure  then  make
[02:16] <histo> hodanlo: open a terminal
[02:16] <pheonix> ashfire908: and do i do this through terminal?
[02:16] <ZykoticK9> renegaid, avidemux is a popular GUI video converter
[02:16] <Ashfire908> pheonix: Uh, yeah.
[02:17] <histo> hodanlo: sudo /etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart
[02:17] <pheonix> what do i type to make a source code just anything?
[02:17] <hodanlo> histo, i got it open
[02:17] <Ashfire908> pheonix: Wait, define "make source code"?
[02:17] <Ashfire908> s/?/.
[02:17] <histo> pheonix: what are you trying to do exactly?
[02:18] <hodanlo> histo, it says "PulseAudio configured for per-user sessions"
[02:18] <klappi> renegaid: what do you want to do exactly?
[02:18] <Ashfire908> histo: you have to walk him through killing pluseaudio and then running it.
[02:19] <pheonix> #!/usr/bin/perl

[02:19] <ubuntuser> how do i get ihe compiz icon in my system tools?
[02:19] <CAPcap> is it possible to view only installed packages in synaptic, or do i have to use another method to easily see what all i have?
[02:19] <pheonix> type this in to geedit
[02:19] <pheonix> and save as hello.pl
[02:19] <ZykoticK9> hodanlo, if you want to restart pulse try "killall -9 pulseaudio && pulse-session"
[02:19] <blakkheim> CAPcap: dpkg --get-selections
[02:19] <pheonix> go tto terminal type perl hello.pl
[02:19] <pheonix> how do i make that actually make sound
[02:19] <pheonix> cause you have to edit the source code to make it do what you want
[02:19] <pheonix> correct?
[02:19] <Dr_Willis> CAPcap:  synaptic has a feature to show installed packages
[02:19] <CAPcap> blakkheim, thanks
[02:20] <CAPcap> Dr_Willis, what is it?
[02:20] <Dr_Willis> CAPcap:  thers a button in synaptic to show installed packages.. explore the tool
[02:20] <sebsebseb> histo: he has gone, good link I gave,  what I put isn't a quote of what it says
[02:20] <histo> hodanlo: try sudo killall pulseaudio
[02:20] <histo> hodanlo: then sudo /etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart
[02:20] <Guest15593> saludos desde ecuador
[02:20] <Ashfire908> pheonix: Sorry but #ubuntu isn't for teaching people to program... And I don't know how to do anything sound related in perl.
[02:21] <blakkheim> pheonix: /join #perl
[02:21] <goddard> geirha got it finally!!!! jrib
[02:22] <CAPcap> Dr_Willis, i dont see it. but thanks anyways
[02:22] <histo> hodanlo: actually scratch that killall pulseaudio then you can start it with hitting alt+F2 and typing pulseaudio
[02:22] <slyco> hi
[02:22] <Guest37046> hi
[02:23] <drhe|skt> guys. guys. what if i do this instead.

[02:23] <slyco> im looking for a book on c socket programming wats a good one
[02:23] <brandon_oma_692> hi everyone
[02:23] <drhe|skt> just add that 1 at the end.
[02:23] <Peterpan12> kevin:application>accessories>terminal; it's a bad translation i think because i'm french.
[02:24] <Peterpan12> lol:i'm tired,sorry
[02:24] <Ashfire908> Peterpan12: "applications" translation's fine.
[02:24] <Dr_Willis> drhe|skt:  you need to partion the disk first so there is a  sdb1
[02:24] <brandon_oma_692> Im new to ubuntu. I have my ipod working and am getting the basics but my supertux does not work properly. any help?
[02:25] <drhe|skt> okay. i think i found  A good tutorial.
[02:25] <hodanlo> histo, sudo killall pulseaudio        pulseaudio: no process found   sudo /etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart   * PulseAudio configured for per-user sessions
[02:26] <Peterpan12> Ashfire908:thanks
[02:28] <chelz> brandon_oma_692: please provide more information
[02:28] <brandon_oma_692> thanks chelz what info do you need and how do i get it?
[02:28] <chelz> brandon_oma_692: "does not work properly" is very vague
[02:29] <hodanlo> histo, hit alt F2, typed pulseaudio. nothing happened
[02:30] <brandon_oma_692> chelz screen goes dark gray with a pointer then dissapears with a beep sound
[02:30] <bullgard> '~$ sudo mount -o loop -t squashfs /home/detlef/Naturwissenschaften/Mathematik/sage-4.3.1.sqfs  /usr/local/sage-4.3.1/ ; mount: /dev/loop0: can't read superblock'. What is wrong in this command?
[02:31] <chelz> brandon_oma_692: have you tried other similar games? do they have a similar problem?
[02:31] <brandon_oma_692> pacman works
[02:32] <brandon_oma_692> chelz if i go to the drop downs the icon for supertux shows as a ? mark
[02:33] <hodanlo> I'm using ubuntu 9.10 from a usb. I have sound. My sound control icon disappeared. When i try to access "sound" from System>Preferences>Sound... I get a window that says "waiting for sound system to respond" How do i repair it?
[02:33] <Gnea> bullgard: you might need to use losetup
[02:34] <Gnea> bullgard: or try without the -t squashfs option
[02:34] <chelz> brandon_oma_692: did you install from the 9.10 repos?
[02:34] <zetheroo> I just had to ask about this ... if there is a patch for the kernel which enables some critical function which the generic kernel does not, why would this patch be incorporated into the actual kernel so that the fix is available without the need for a third party source and additional updates etc !?
[02:35] <zetheroo> sorry .. I mean to say "why would this patch NOT be incorporated...."
[02:35] <brandon_oma_692> in terminal sudo apt-get install supertux i think is how i got it not really sure
[02:35] <chelz> zetheroo: reasons for patches not getting included and getting cluded into the linux kernel are handled totally on a case-by-case basis
[02:36] <zetheroo> chelz: that is informative but not really helpful
[02:36] <bullgard> Gnea: I am not familiar with 'losetup'. Do you mean this: http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-HOWTO/Loopback-Encrypted-Filesystem-HOWTO.html?
[02:36] <brandon_oma_692> Chelz it sits up next to firefox and help as a red do not enter type sign
[02:36] <r0b0tchicken> Does anyone have any experience with ITE IT8705F Super IO Sensors an lmsensors with 9.10?  upgraded kernel today and it will not pick up my sensors. submitted a bug, everything was good2go before the kernel update...
[02:37] <chelz> zetheroo: you might have better luck referring to a specific instance of patches not getting accepted. the kernelnewbies website has a ton of info around all of this
[02:37] <zetheroo> chelz: what must one do to get the patch incorporated into the kernel?
[02:37] <bullgard> Gnea: Trying without the '-t squashfs' option obtains the same result.
[02:38] <hodanlo> I want to use my sound control? how do it access the control?
[02:38] <zetheroo> chelz: I am actually referring to one in particular .. but I am sure there are many more which are lingering on launchpad
[02:38] <chelz> zetheroo: http://kernelnewbies.org/UpstreamMerge
[02:38] <Gnea> bullgard: kind of, but without the encryption part
[02:39] <zetheroo> chelz: so there is nothing "automatic" about the process?
[02:39] <darkhole> Hi guys, my first time on this channel, always on regional channels of Ubuntu.
[02:39] <darkhole> I need some help...
[02:39] <bullgard> Gnea: Thank you for commenting. I think I will need more snooping.
[02:39] <chelz> brandon_oma_692: run "supertux" from the commandline and please pastebin the output
[02:40] <chelz> zetheroo: no, software development is usually all quite manual. especially when changing really established projects.
[02:40] <zetheroo> chelz: I had been thinking that launchpad was somehow a breeding ground for bug fixes and such which were then sorted though and submitted to the kernel devs
[02:40] <keith-> so i have sun-java6-jdk and it seems eclipse just installed openjdk do those two not conflict at all?
[02:40] <zetheroo> chelz: or if not to the kernel devs then to which ever developers were in charge of that area
[02:40] <Dr_Willis> Launchpad = launchpad for new ideas :)
[02:41] <darkhole> Challenge!!: I need to install Ubuntu on a Laptop, without CD drive, no USB boot (no external CD usb-drive), just floppy and internet (I don't have switchs, so, just internet), by the way, this PC have PXE boot

[02:41] <faileas> darkhole: pxeboot ;p

[02:42] <Talon_> how do you disable authentication for every little thing, wireless wants my password to unlock the keyring, mounting a drive from the places menu wants my password, installing apps with ubuntu software center or synaptic package manager wants my password, this is very annoying like vista's UAC

[02:57] <CAPcap> chelz again not what im really looking for. also thats antiquated.

[02:59] <chelz> brandon_oma_692: yes. what's the output of "uname -a" (without the quotes)
[03:00] <chelz> hodanlo: right click on the panel, click "Add to Panel..." and type in       volume control
[03:00] <subspider> hi plz i can see movies they have color like blue plz help
[03:00] <hodanlo> chelz, i tried that.
[03:00] <Travis-42> how fast does ubuntu run when you run it off of a usb flash drive?
[03:01] <brandon_oma_692> chelz Linux ubuntu 2.6.31-17-generic #54-Ubuntu SMP Thu Dec 10 16:20:31 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux
[03:01] <chelz> Travis-42: faster than running off of a CD but slower than running off of a hard drive
[03:01] <faultyground> Im having trouble using ssh.  Two linux boxes on a LAN, but I cannot ssh from one to the other.  "Connection refused"
[03:01] <subspider> plz some help me
[03:01] <subspider> i can't see movies
[03:01] <chelz> faultyground: could be a firewall issue
[03:01] <Travis-42> chelz: much slower than a hard drive, or might it actually be an acceptable speed?
[03:02] <chelz> subspider: all of your movies are tinted blue?
[03:02] <subspider> yes
[03:02] <chelz> Travis-42: try installing ubuntu to a usb drive with Unetbootin and try it out.
[03:02] <Talon_> chelz, thats just for using sudo in a console, I think i managed to achieve what I wanted, I went to /usr/share/polkit-1/actions and replaced every occurance of "auth_admin_keep" with "yes" in every .policy file and now i have no nags :)
[03:02] <faultyground> chelz: I dont believe there is a firewall running on either box, and my router shouldnt be filtering local traffic
[03:02] <chelz> Talon_: alright. but for the record that's very dangerous.
[03:02] <subspider> yes chelz
[03:02] <soreau> subspider: Which graphics card do you have?
[03:02] <Travis-42> alright, thanks chelz
[03:03] <subspider> nvidia 8800
[03:03] <abumaia> if my iptables are purged, and my computer is in the router's dmz, is there anything else in ubuntu that will block certain ports from being opened?
[03:03] <hodanlo> best way to do it i assume is to delete ubuntu 9.10. format the drive and reinstall it for the 4th time
[03:03] <hodanlo> seems like 9.10 is unstable
[03:03] <Talon_> chelz: how so?
[03:04] <keith-> so i have the ubuntu drum sound everytime i open a tab in google-chrome. how do i turn that off?
[03:04] <brandon_oma_692> chelz does this work? http://pastebin.com/f597fa8a3
[03:04] <MidasManchu> Hey mates, is it possible to setup Ubuntu One on Ubuntu Server?
[03:04] <chelz> Talon_: everyday use shouldn't require typing in an administrator password. a lot of times you can check a box that says "remember password" but disabling the prompts entirely can lead to breaking ubuntu.
[03:05] <chelz> brandon_oma_692: thanks. got it
[03:06] <Talon_> chelz: whats the difference? either way i always entered my password, so if it was something malicious meant to harm my system, i would have entered my password reguardless.. its just a wasted step in my opinion.

[03:12] <chelz> brandon_oma_692: no, we'll add that to the main file one sec
[03:13] <Talon_> chelz: will removing polkit-1 be as effective as modifying all the .policy files?
[03:13] <rd1381> when i enter sudo bash i get a a another account bash  that that account doesnt work on dpkg
[03:14] <rd1381> i mean when i type "dpkg -i "in the given bash it says "dpkg: requested operation requires superuser privilege"
[03:14] <r0b0tchicken> Shazam do you know the name of the program you are trying to kill?   will      killall nameofprogram     not work?
[03:15] <chelz> Talon_: probably not a good idea to remove core system parts
[03:15] <rd1381> but with same bash i can use it with apt-get
[03:15] <Talon_> chelz: ok, well i'm happy with the current solution then, so far nothing's asked me for a password

[03:28] <chelz> rd1381: do:  sudo -i
[03:28] <rd1381> i said before
[03:28] <Gabriel_M> Hi there i am trying to crate a in xchat a channer and i keep getting this message " ChanServ does NOT exist on this net"
[03:28] <MindSpark> how do I make the screensaver "go away" using from the terminal ?
[03:28] <rd1381> it ask for my pass then root pass
[03:28] <brandon_oma_692> chelz yeppers
[03:28] <rd1381> sry
[03:29] <rd1381> no just my pass
[03:29] <JULinuxUser> chelz http://pastebin.com/m50c23f1b
[03:29] <r0b0tchicken> can't rd1381 just boot to the grub recovery terminal, and set new root password?
[03:29] <rd1381> but stiill no access to dpkg
[03:29] <rd1381> r0b0tchicken> i installed a new ubunut to fix these account managment  issues of stupid ubuntu
[03:29] <crazyeric> does anyone know how to get all sound routed to HDMI instead of the usual phono, it works fine in XBMC thru hdmi but everything else (youtube, etc) plays from the phono
[03:30] <rd1381> r0b0tchicken> honestly i can afford to do another boot :)
[03:30] <chelz> JULinuxUser: sudo apt-get remove frei0r-plugins
[03:30] <j0hndoe> question about docks for ubuntu. im lookin for one that works w/o a composite manager like compiz. i have to disable compiz so i can remote into 9.10 (known bug). so i have to disable it fairly often. i know docky requies this. i think awn does as well. so there are the 2 major/good docks. anyone recommend anything else?
[03:30] <auril> I'm in the ubuntu recovery shell, and I accidentally exited the 'gui' program (it has options to 'fix x server', 'run dpkg' etc) - how do I get back to the gui screen?
[03:30] <r0b0tchicken> rd1381...lol    if you are comfy with it, you can go to the GRUB menu (i take it you are on 9.10)  and get into the recovery terminal...and set the passwords for root there just like you forgot the password. I have a link here close that will give you the steps if you'd like....
[03:31] <chelz> rd1381: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/resetpassword
[03:31] <chelz> r0b0tchicken: i think that's what you're talking about
[03:31] <r0b0tchicken> chelz link will work, yes :) you type faster chelz :)
[03:31] <chelz> j0hndoe: you might like Gnome Do
[03:31] <j0hndoe> gnome do isnt a dock tho?
[03:31] <auril> nm ^ that fixed me up
[03:31] <j0hndoe> docky is awesome. just cant use it w/o compiz :(
[03:32] <soreau> j0hndoe: look into AWN
[03:32] <xangua> j0hndoe: then activate metacity composite
[03:32] <j0hndoe> hrm
[03:32] <auril> gnome do is quite nice
[03:32] <soreau> !info avant-window-navigator
[03:32] <chelz> j0hndoe: http://www.google.com/search?q=ubuntu+docks - top 5 results
[03:32] <j0hndoe> heh
[03:32] <j0hndoe> im aware but most require a composite manager
[03:32] <rd1381> rd1381: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/resetpassword this is for a regular user nto root
[03:32] <j0hndoe> i cant remove w/ that enabled
[03:32] <j0hndoe> remote*
[03:32] <rd1381> and i tried that  and it asked for root pass
[03:33] <bastid_raZor> rd1381: root should not have a password to begin with.
[03:33] <r0b0tchicken> rd1381, if that doesn't work from grub, something else is srsly wrong.....
[03:33] <j0hndoe> oh well, was hoping some would know of one off the top of their head. i'll try awn w/ metacity composite manger, maybe it'll work *shrug*
[03:33] <j0hndoe> thx guys
[03:33] <chelz> rd1381: in that terminal do       passwd -l root
[03:33] <Gabriel_M> i am trying to create a chat channel using X-chat.  I used: /msg chanserv register #Dream_Act_2010 nysylc National_Network and i get this message "ChanServ does NOT exist on this net!"
 i know but i changed that and it became hell after that
[03:33] <j0hndoe> Gabriel_M: /join #chan
[03:33] <j0hndoe> ?
 passwd: Permission denied.
[03:34] <wooby> hello, does anyone know where i might download a 9.10 amd64 .img?
[03:34] <wooby> thanks in advance
[03:34] <chelz> rd1381: you are doing this from recovery mode?
[03:34] <Shazam> I just found a bunch of data I thought I lost, important to me. I realize that I'm running with effectively *no* backups of about 100 GB of critical data
[03:34] <rd1381> no
[03:34] <chelz> rd1381: did you backup your sudoers file?
[03:34] <chelz> rd1381: do it from recovery mode
[03:34] <chelz> rd1381: do it from recovery mode
[03:34] <Shazam> what's an effective backup mechanism?
 how many times i should say this
[03:35] <chelz> Shazam: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem
 it NOT sudoers fault
[03:35] <chelz> rd1381: ok. reboot into recovery mode.
 it was working before and it not changed
[03:35] <koshari> Shazam i like to use rsync
[03:35] <rd1381> i am just asking why ubuntu askes for root pas?
[03:36] <klappi> koshari: i like rsnapshot (uses rsync)
[03:36] <Shazam> koshari: reading previous comment, and looking into rsync as well.
[03:36] <chelz> wooby: http://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/download - make sure you click on " 64-bit version"
[03:36] <Shazam> klappi: appreciate the thought
[03:36] <wooby> chelz: thank you, however i am looking for a .img and not a .iso i believe... i'm trying to write the installer image to a USB stick, not a CD
[03:37] <chelz> rd1381: because the account has been enabled somehow. to disable it running "sudo passwd -l root" from the recovery mode will fix it
[03:37] <auril> wooby, that can be done with a .iso
[03:37] <chelz> wooby: download Unetbootin
[03:37] <auril> wooby, ^
 ok i try that and report back
[03:37] <Privoxy> Afternoon good gents
[03:37] <r0b0tchicken> wooby there is a command/prog to go from iso to img, also  but yes unetbootin very handy
[03:37] <fastautos> whre do you go in ubuntu to find out what your processor, memory and everything else is?
[03:38] <bastid_raZor> fastautos: sudo lshw
[03:38] <Mike_lifeguard> What command line program can I use to play .ogg/.oga files?
[03:38] <r0b0tchicken> fastautos type     cat /proc/cpuinfo   for your cpu    and   free    for your RAM
[03:38] <wooby> r0b0tchicken: thank you, is there something like unetbootin for macs? i downloaded the amd64 iso on os X
[03:38] <auril> Mike_lifeguard, vlc ?
[03:38] <chelz> fastautos: open System Monitor. it's on the main tab
[03:38] <Mike_lifeguard> auril: that's not a command line program O__o
[03:38] <r0b0tchicken> wooby very well might be...let me check for you see if i can help you out
[03:38] <auril> Mike_lifeguard, yes it is ;)
[03:39] <Privoxy> I come to you with a nub question, I have installed ubuntu 9.10 into my second harddrive, (My first is made up of two drives in raid0) so guess you could call it my first, I reboot my system after the install and I end up back in W7... after having a little play around in easyBCD im still unable to get into linux... would love a little help pointing me in the right way
[03:39] <fastautos> thanks
[03:39] <wooby> r0b0tchicken: thanks again, really looking forward to getting this working
[03:39] <klappi> Mike_lifeguard: mp3blaster?
[03:39] <chelz> wooby: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick#Computer%20used%20to%20make%20USB%20disk - "Mac OS X"
[03:39] <chelz> wooby: it's a lot easier from an ubuntu or windows install
[03:40] <aurilliance> test
[03:40] <wooby> chelz: totally awesome! thank you so much
[03:40] <blankthemuffin> Hey I'm wondering if anybody knows a good app to create a video out of a image slideshow. It only has to be simple but I've tried Imagination and Videoporama and neither work. (The former crops all my images and the latter does not export, preview, anything)
[03:40] <chelz> Privoxy: when you installed ubuntu, did it see the windows install?
[03:41] <Privoxy> no chelz,
[03:41] <valenz> hey
[03:41] <Privoxy> as my windows install is on a software raid, I seem to have always had issues with getting linux to see it
[03:41] <r0b0tchicken> wooby look at this link and scroll down to option 4.  it does say you need an img file   http://www.webupd8.org/2009/04/4-ways-to-create-bootable-live-usb.html
[03:41] <chelz> Privoxy: did grub get installed?
[03:41] <Privoxy> yes
[03:41] <wooby> r0b0tchicken: thanks, it turns out the mac program hdiutil will convert to an .img from an .iso
[03:41] <valenz> you can make with the comand disk part
[03:41] <wooby> so i'm all set :) thanks again
[03:41] <chelz> Privoxy: what boots first, grub or this easybcd?
[03:41] <Privoxy> into its defeat directory (HD,0)
[03:41] <valenz> you format you usb
[03:42] <r0b0tchicken> no problem :)
[03:42] <Privoxy> at the moment, nothing, just windows
[03:42] <Privoxy> im still unable to get into grub
[03:42] <valenz> then you do a Xcopy
[03:42] <aurilliance> ^ lol@ecopunk's nick :P
[03:42] <mobius2> greetings,  i have been reading about setting up a spanned desktop by adding an LCD monitor to my laptop. The laptop is an older Gateway M-275 tablet pc.  Is spanning a desktop across 2 monitors  with the primary  display being the integrated laptop screen?
[03:42] <chelz> Privoxy: how did you get to easybcd?
[03:42] <mobius2> is it possible?
[03:42] <U-b-u-n-t-u> sudo chown -R administrator:users  I tried this command on a folder and it returned chown: invalid user: `administrator:users' what did I do wrong?
[03:42] <Privoxy> within the windows environment?
[03:43] <chelz> mobius2: yes but is either easier or harder depending on your graphics card
[03:43] <macman_> guys i have no sound .. i just removed pusleaudio
[03:43] <wooby> chelz, r0b0tchicken tahnks again for your help, have a great evening
[03:43] <wooby> goodnight
[03:43] <r0b0tchicken> mobious2, did it with my geforce 6200, spanned it across to my television (s-video out), complicated, but yes, possible
[03:43] <bastid_raZor> U-b-u-n-t-u: do you have a user named adminsrator ?
[03:43] <brandon_oma_692> what is some cool stuf to do while learning to use the command line?
[03:43] <cycrosism> How do I get the size ofa folder? When I do df or df -h it lists my whote system
[03:44] <U-b-u-n-t-u> bastid_raZor,  no
[03:44] <mobius2> i noticed that the video driver i'm using is able to see the added  lcd monitor,  however when  I uncheck the "mirror screens" tickbox,  the screens go blank and all i can do is wait for the automatic reversion
[03:44] <Phosis> I second Brandons question...trying to comprehend shell a bit more
[03:44] <blakkheim> cycrosism: du -sh /directory/
[03:44] <rd1381> sigh
[03:44] <rd1381> didnt work
[03:44] <greezmunkey> du -sh /home
[03:44] <chelz> Privoxy: in your BIOS set it to boot the harddrive that ubuntu is on. once you're in ubuntu you can setup grub to see your windows
[03:44] <Gryllida> Hi. I have been using Windows 200 with MS Office 2000 for several years. It means the costs... I write math docs, develop software, watch many videos, listen to music, etc. What can you say about me and Ubuntu? Should I have a look at it using live CD? Or is it of no sense?
[03:44] <cycrosism> blakkheim: Ty
[03:44] <rd1381> chelz
[03:44] <rd1381> it didnt work
[03:44] <Privoxy> thanks chelz il do it now
[03:45] <aurilliance> I tried to update to 8.10, but now every time I start I get a shell, and when I try startx it says it cannot find a screen :( ???
[03:45] <bastid_raZor> U-b-u-n-t-u: administrator needs to be an actual user before you can give permissions to it.

[03:45] <chelz> rd1381: what happened?
[03:45] <mobius2> does the fact that I can at least SEE the odded  monitor mean I am close to  having this doe? perhaps a simple xorg edit or what-not.   I am wondering if this is even possible with this M-275 tablet computer
 nothing
 same as before
[03:45] <chelz> rd1381: somehow root got messed up really badly
[03:46] <U-b-u-n-t-u> bastid_raZor, I am trying to set up a mount on a slave drive and I followed this once before and there was no issue http://tombott.com/Automatically_Mount_Additional_HD_in_Ubuntu_8.10_and_Ubuntu_9.04   ....... but now when I get to the command I showed you it wont allow me to add users and admins to the folder
 i did what you aid but nothing changed here
 i know that
 thats why i say ubunut is stupid
[03:46] <chelz> !hate | rd1381
[03:46] <r0b0tchicken> mobius2, close is a relative word...like as in...we are "close" to the moon, or close to a hand grenade... :P  but yes, seeing the monitor is a good start, im reviewing some things...would you mind posting your type of laptop, and video adapter?
 by disabling root it added a shit load of other problems
[03:46] <bastid_raZor> !fstab | U-b-u-n-t-u follow this guide.
[03:47] <rd1381> :))
[03:47] <rd1381> it not hate
[03:47] <rd1381> its hatred
[03:47] <macman_> guys question .. im on ubuntu and my audio isn't working .. i just removed pulse audio and alasmixer is fine .. should i reboot ?
[03:47] <rd1381> i long for opensuse but it didnt have the repos of ubuntu but now i think i switch back
[03:48] <bastid_raZor> rd1381: you created the problem by enabling root.
[03:48] <rd1381> the funny thing is i can install apps with apt-ht and synaptic but dpkg says i must be superuser
[03:48] <U-b-u-n-t-u> bastid_raZor, I dont need to know any of that I need to know how to add users and administrators to a folder so when I right click I can set permissions on that folder
[03:48] <Gryllida> I don't think it would be good to post my question again, but did anybody just see it?
[03:49] <bastid_raZor> rd1381: then use sudo for root permissions
[03:49] <bastid_raZor> !sudo | rd1381
 wont work on dpkg
[03:49] <jack5463> after i install ubuntu 9.1 should i update it?
[03:49] <r0b0tchicken> bastid_raZor, please explain your reasoning behind that?   the FIRST thing i did with ubuntu was set a root password, so at least there was one there...  are you just saying "for him" that is a bad idea, or for everyone?
[03:49] <bastid_raZor> !root
[03:49] <r0b0tchicken> jack5463, at least change it to security updates and get those...
[03:49] <chelz> rd1381: try to do something with sudo and pastebin all of your terminal after you do it
[03:49] <rd1381> sure
[03:49] <rd1381> what you need?
[03:50] <mobius2> robotchicken I think he simply meant that it's best to leave the default hash  password intact for the root account, as it's more secure....
[03:50] <rd1381> \is ls enough?
[03:50] <bastid_raZor> setting a root password is not supported by #ubuntu and by doing so you negate support here.
[03:50] <roboboy> Anyone have a guide, or some suggestions for how to increase resolution or enable 3D acceleration for an Intel Integrated Graphics Media Accelerator 900?
[03:50] <chelz> rd1381: do   sudo passwd -l root
[03:50] <roboboy> right now ubuntu is limiting me to 800x600
[03:50] <jack5463> r0b0tchicken, what are the security problems with ubuntu?
[03:50] <Dr_Willis> roboboy:  thers some forum threads and wiki pages on Intel video chipsets.
[03:50] <rd1381> sudo passwd -l root
[03:50] <rd1381> [sudo] password for rd-admin:
[03:50] <rd1381> passwd: Permission denied.
[03:50] <bastid_raZor> U-b-u-n-t-u: chown is the correct way, but you need a valid user:group
[03:51] <macman_> what is that website that has all the compatble computers ?
[03:51] <macman_> it hink its a wiki
[03:51] <bastid_raZor> rd1381: sudo will ask for your password.. the admin user
[03:51] <chelz> !supportroot | r0b0tchicken
[03:51] <r0b0tchicken> jack5463, not so  much "sec problems" ,but every now and again they will find a "Possible vulnerability", and my advice is at the very least, enable "security updates only", and install them
[03:51] <rd1381> <bastid_raZo yes
[03:51] <chelz> rd1381: please pastebin next time

[03:54] <jack5463> is ubuntu 9.04 more stabe than 9.10? i seem like i'm spending alot of time here trying to fix problems with my 9.10

[03:55] <rd1381> it doesnt matter what user i am

[03:55] <rd1381> i cant never run dpkg command

[03:56] <rd1381> i use sudo
[03:56] <blankthemuffin> Hey I'm wondering if anybody knows a good app to create a video out of a image slideshow. It only has to be simple but I've tried Imagination and Videoporama and neither work. (The former crops all my images and the latter does not export, preview, anything)
[03:56] <rd1381> but still no luck
[03:56] <chelz> rd1381: just for fun, try changing "runas_default=rd-admin" to "runas_default=root" or remove it
[03:56] <rd1381> ok
[03:56] <U-b-u-n-t-u> bastid_raZor, any time I right click any folder I can set admin and users privileges so why would I need to add user administrator and users?
[03:56] <rd1381> sure
[03:56] <bastid_raZor> rd1381: using sudo you would need to be the user with admin in their group.
[03:56] <rd1381> <bastid_raZor both re admin dude
[03:56] <chelz> rd1381: then try that   "sudo passwd -l root"
[03:56] <roboboy> U-b-u-n-t-u: thanks :)
  sure
[03:56] <jack5463> is Ubuntu 9.04 more stable than 9.10? I'm spending a lot of time here trying to fix problems with my 9.10
[03:57] <Freeaqingme> jack5463, I had the same feeling indeed
[03:57] <Dr_Willis> jack5463:  ive had very few problems with 9.10
[03:57] <U-b-u-n-t-u> roboboy, np
[03:57] <_Tristan> just installed 9.10 and wireless networks don't show up
[03:57] <chelz> _Tristan: i know those as "upgrading pains". just things to be fixed and forgotten.
[03:57] <bastid_raZor> U-b-u-n-t-u: right clicking and using chown are not the exact same. using chown you need an actual user or group that exists
[03:58] <speedxxxcore> I need an app that sees disk I/O in realtime? any ideas?
[03:58] <U-b-u-n-t-u> roboboy, many people were trying to tell me it was a driver and its just a xconf setting
[03:58] <_Tristan> chelz: I didn't upgrade, it was a clean install
[03:58] <jack5463> Dr_Willis, 9.04 has more problems than 9.10?
[03:58] <chelz> _Tristan: metaphorical update then ;)
[03:58] <Inpetto> Hi all, how can I flush all at localhost on port 11211 if Im connected via ssh?
[03:58] <Dr_Willis> jack5463:  cant say i noticed many issues in 9,.04 either
[03:58] <_Tristan> chelz: I suppose. Any idea how to fx it?
[03:58] <_Tristan> fix*
[03:58] <U-b-u-n-t-u> bastid_raZor, the point of me saying that I can right click on other folders and see users and admins wasnt to say that was equal to chown but to say I should be able to add admins and users to a folder then set permissions
[03:59] <rd1381> :))
[03:59] <rd1381> it gets worse by second
[03:59] <rd1381> visudo says visudo: /etc/sudoers: Permission denied
[03:59] <chelz> _Tristan: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessTroubleShootingGuide
[03:59] <jack5463> Dr_Willis, is ubuntu 9.04 more stabe than 9.10? i seem like i'm spending alot of time here trying to fix problems with my 9.10
[03:59] <chelz> _Tristan: then a similar thing http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-troubleshoot-wireless-network-connection-in-ubuntu.html
[03:59] <chelz> rd1381: edit it from recovery mode
[04:00] <rd1381> sigh
[04:00] <chelz> rd1381: and don't use "sudo" while in recovery mode
[04:00] <rd1381> never mind
[04:00] <bastid_raZor> U-b-u-n-t-u: understood. using chown requires using an actual user .. if user fred does not exist then you can not chown fred file ..
[04:00] <jack5463> Dr_Willis, I'm using ubuntu 9.10 from a usb. I have sound. My sound control icon disappeared from panel. When i try to access "sound" from System>Preferences>Sound... I get a window that says "waiting for sound system to respond" How do i repair it?
[04:00] <Dr_Willis> jack5463:  i found them both stable. I dont recall any issues i had with either one..   The UNR for 9.10 does work better on my AAO howeverf
[04:00] <rd1381> thanks for help
[04:00] <rd1381> i guess i go back to dear suse
[04:00] <chelz> rd1381: don't break your system next time :P
[04:00] <Dr_Willis> jack5463:  sounds liek pulse audio died perhaps.. restart pulse audio. Ive never had souind issues
 ubuntu is fagile not me
[04:01] <bastid_raZor> rd1381: doing unsupported things is the issue. don't be a rebel
 what is a linux if u cant play with it
[04:01] <U-b-u-n-t-u> bastid_raZor, I am not trying to add a user but the option administrator and users so I can set the permissions
[04:01] <U-b-u-n-t-u> =_=
[04:01] <chelz> rd1381: part of playing with something is dealing with it when it breaks. like now. you don't seem to be up for what it takes to fix it though
[04:01] <rd1381> i played suse ragged but always could get back to step one
[04:02] <U-b-u-n-t-u> bastid_raZor, http://tombott.com/Automatically_Mount_Additional_HD_in_Ubuntu_8.10_and_Ubuntu_9.04   <<< I am using this guild which worked on ubuntu 9.04 without adding anything
[04:02] <rd1381> <chel tell me what is my problem and how to fix it and i will.as you saw i tried everything(booting and whatever
[04:02] <U-b-u-n-t-u> bastid_raZor,  I assume the command line is the same in 9.10
[04:02] <sahal> why does gnome take 40 minutes to start?
[04:02] <jack5463> Dr_Willis, I tried sudo killall pulseaudio, sudo /etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart. it didn't do anything
[04:03] <sebsebseb> sahal: logging into Ubuntu you mean?
[04:03] <d6chung> Hi, I'm trying to get wired Ethernet to go up with RTL-8139 but am having difficulty. Anyone have suggestions?
[04:03] <sahal> sebsebseb: yeah
[04:03] <sebsebseb> sahal: Which version 9.10?
[04:03] <chelz> U-b-u-n-t-u: is only one user on the system?
[04:03] <sahal> sebsebseb: no 8.04
[04:03] <sebsebseb> sahal: oh
[04:03] <U-b-u-n-t-u> chelz, yes
[04:03] <sebsebseb> sahal: new install of 8.04 or?
[04:03] <chelz> U-b-u-n-t-u: why not use your own username and group then?
[04:04] <chelz> sahal: you might try xubuntu if you find ubuntu to be too slow
[04:04] <sahal> sebsebseb: gdm loads fine, i can access the ttys. this is a few month old install of 8.04
[04:04] <sebsebseb> sahal: how much RAM?
[04:04] <ubuntu_> alguien habla español
[04:04] <rd1381> ubuntu is still an unreliable and unstable system
[04:04] <sebsebseb> !es  |  ubuntu_
[04:04] <sahal> chelz: the thing is that it was working fine until last week
[04:04] <sahal> when i updated
[04:04] <obiwan_> hh
[04:04] <Dr_Willis> rd1381:  demand a refund?
[04:04] <bastid_raZor> U-b-u-n-t-u: that guide tells you on the first few lines .. User = Administrator ... if your computer does not have a user by the name of administrator then following this guide to the T will not work.. substitute administrator with your user.
[04:04] <obiwan_> oops
[04:04] <chelz> !offtopic | rd1381
[04:04] <ubuntu_> sabes como puedo colocar
[04:04] <ubuntu_> el flash player
[04:04] <jack5463> ya get what you pay for?
 no . just going back to suse. if it had more apps i would never have come to ubunut
[04:05] <ubuntu_> no puedo ver nada
[04:05] <chelz> !es | ubuntu_
[04:05] <sahal> sebsebseb: 256mb
[04:05] <Dr_Willis> rd1381:  problem solved then.. goodby
[04:05] <rd1381> sure thanks
[04:05] <ubuntu_> flash player for ubuntu :?
[04:05] <Dr_Willis> !flash
[04:05] <ubuntu_> thaks
[04:05] <chelz> U-b-u-n-t-u: in that guide, what step are you having trouble with
[04:05] <ubuntu_> thank
[04:05] <sebsebseb> sahal: How much SWAP space?
[04:05] <xangua> ubuntu_: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras , it installs adobe flash player, fonts, codecs, etc
[04:06] <chelz> sahal: did you install updates or update ubuntu from say 9.04 to 9.10?
[04:06] <sahal> sebsebseb: ~1gb
[04:06] <roboboy2> does X11 in 9.10 not respond to ctrl-alt-backspace?
[04:06] <sebsebseb> sahal: Also it used to work ok I assume, but it started to be slow to log in after updates?
[04:06] <sahal> chelz: install updates
[04:06] <sahal> yeah
[04:06] <lanzelloth> hi guys
[04:06] <sahal> i mean i'm using it now
[04:06] <chelz> roboboy2: correct. it can be re-enabled.
[04:06] <sahal> its working fine
[04:06] <lanzelloth> the nm-applet is being retarded
[04:06] <sahal> it just took a long while to login
[04:06] <Dr_Willis> !dontzap
[04:06] <roboboy2> ubottu: thanks
[04:06] <sahal> like 40 minutes
[04:06] <sebsebseb> sahal: not sure why it's so slow to log in
[04:06] <U-b-u-n-t-u> bastid_raZor, and chelz  thank you ......... I should have read line 1 lol
[04:06] <nytek_> im having trouble with sound playing a mp4 file in mplayer
[04:06] <lanzelloth> it won't connect to a wireless network given correct password, ecnryption type
[04:07] <bastid_raZor> U-b-u-n-t-u: best of luck :)
[04:07] <nytek_> anybody have any ideas?
[04:07] <U-b-u-n-t-u> its me:users not administrator:users <<< my bad!
[04:07] <U-b-u-n-t-u> thanks bastid_raZor
[04:07] <bastid_raZor> U-b-u-n-t-u: all  part of the learning process. :)
[04:07] <U-b-u-n-t-u> hehe yeah! reading is fundamental
[04:07] <sahal> sebsebseb: i was looking in .xsession-errors it says something about default.ms
[04:07] <sebsebseb> sahal: failing hard disk maybe
[04:08] <sebsebseb> sahal: not sure what that is, how old is the computer?
[04:08] <sahal> sebsebseb: the thing is everything else works fine
[04:08] <sahal> i just installed a new hd a few months ago
[04:08] <sahal> the old one did fail
[04:08] <sahal> lol
[04:08] <sebsebseb> sahal: why are you on 8.04?
[04:08] <sahal> i dunno, its LTS.
[04:08] <xangua> sebsebseb: because it has long term support
[04:09] <sahal> i'm waiting for 10.04
[04:09] <sebsebseb> sahal: ah ha you want to directly upgrade I see
[04:09] <sahal> the next lts to upgrade
[04:09] <lanzelloth> how do I connect to a wireless network that has changed its encryption type??
[04:09] <jack5463> how do i get my sound control icon back that disappeared on panel?
[04:09] <Privoxy> I am now able to boot into grub, where im greeted with the error 15 /boot/grub.conf not found...
[04:09] <zurdo12> hola
[04:10] <lanzelloth> the nm-applet kept kept failing, asking for password and it just kept trying with the old settings
[04:10] <zurdo12> quien habla español
[04:10] <nytek_> does anybody know why sound wouldnt play in either mplayer or vlc with a mp4 file?
[04:10] <xangua> !es | zurdo12
[04:10] <sahal> sebsebseb: so what should i do to make it start faster? or even troubleshoot what the problem is?
[04:11] <sebsebseb> sahal: maybe another log in screen will help,  or an upgrade to at least 8.10.  Of course if you upgrade to at least 8.10 you can't then directly upgrade to 10.04.  However people who directly upgrade from 8.04   probably won't get Grub 2 on upgrade and Ext4 is unlikely to get on upgrade.  Those aren't really needed those.
[04:11] <sebsebseb> sahal: though
[04:11] <zurdo12> xangua pero lo busco en los server y no aparece nada con .es
[04:11] <sahal> sebsebseb: another login screen?
[04:11] <sebsebseb> sahal: yeah
[04:11] <xangua> zurdo12: /j #ubuntu-es
[04:12] <sahal> sebsebseb: i tried to create a new user and they logged in fine.  but that was only the first login
[04:12] <sahal> sebsebseb: after a second login i had the same problem with a new user
[04:12] <sahal> sebsebseb: i created a new user with useradd in a tty
[04:12] <jack5463> what programming language do i need to learn to use and repair ubuntu?
[04:12] <sebsebseb> sahal: there's  KDM and XDM as well,  KDM being the KDE one, which means it will want to put on quite a lot more KDE stuff, if you haven't already got KDE stuff on there
[04:12] <sebsebseb> sahal: you could try re installing gdm also
[04:13] <sahal> sebsebseb: the thing is gdm starts fine... its only after i try to login does the computer really lag
[04:13] <sahal> is that still a gdm problem?
[04:13] <sebsebseb> sahal: maybe
[04:13] <sebsebseb> sahal: ,but it's probably something else actsaulley
[04:13] <nytek_> jack5463: what are you talking about? repair?
[04:13] <d6chung> Does "Modules linked in" in dmesg list the drivers that are loaded?
[04:13] <sebsebseb> sahal: however I suppouse try another log in screen, and if get with that as well, there's your answer
[04:14] <lanzelloth> how can I configure wireless network connections manually?
[04:14] <nytek_> lanzelloth: with iwconfig
[04:14] <sebsebseb> sahal: have you got data backed up and such?   you could try  upgrading to 8.10, then just clean install when 10.04 comes out?
[04:15] <lanzelloth> does the nm-applet use the same settings or whatever is set by iwconfig?
[04:15] <bastid_raZor> lanzelloth: right click the nm-applet in the toolbar and edit connections .. or left click and connecdt to hidden network .. that will allow you to set each setting required
[04:16] <lanzelloth> bastid_raZor i tried that
[04:17] <lanzelloth> bastid_raZor the result is multiple connection profiles to the same network
[04:17] <Inpetto> If a php extension shows up in my phpinfo (and is therefore running?) how can I find out information about it such as what port its running on etc?
[04:17] <lanzelloth> deleted all of them retried again
[04:18] <DerluenrudyThu> http://lm.loldongs.eu/~h/rofl.jpg <[04:18] <DerluenrudyThu> http://lm.loldongs.eu/~h/rofl.jpg <[04:18] <DerluenrudyThu> http://lm.loldongs.eu/~h/rofl.jpg <[04:18] <FloodBot1> DerluenrudyThu: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:19] <bastid_raZor> lanzelloth: i've changed my wireless encryption recently and had no issues.. unsure why it wouldn't work for you. i deleted the previous setting for mine and did a connect to hidden network .. since i had hid the SSID and change from wep to wpa/tsk
[04:20] <lanzelloth> bastid_raZor i'd rather learn about the foolproof way with the command line
[04:21] <lanzelloth> bastid_raZor i'm reading a bunch of tutorials online about it and they all want me to run a bunch of commands without explaining them
[04:21] <bastid_raZor> lanzelloth: iwconfig is the way although i do not have much experience.. good luck
[04:21] <unixalot> lanzelloth: whatcha doin with iwconfig??
[04:23] <lanzelloth> unixalot trying to set up a wireless connection "profile"
[04:23] <lanzelloth> the nm-applet does use the same setting files/whatever as the iwconfig right? it's just a "nicer" gui alternative of dealing with iwconfig from the terminal
[04:24] <unixalot> lanzelloth: thats a fact
[04:24] <lanzelloth> unixalot so if I configured it properly then the nm-applet will just autoconnect the next time I log in right?
[04:25] <unixalot> No you have to set the nm-applet to the settings then it will save to your keyring i think
[04:25] <lanzelloth> i don't know what the gnome keyring is
[04:25] <thechris> I need help getting dual-boot to work.
[04:25] <lanzelloth> It's a gnome thing, yes?
[04:26] <unixalot> It saves all these settings that are required by root
[04:27] <thechris> Has anyone gotten a dual boot system to work with the current version of ubuntu?
[04:27] <sahal> i'm using dual boot with 8.04
[04:27] <sahal> but i don't see why it wouldn't work with other versions of ubuntu
[04:28] <sahal> i installed windows first
[04:28] <thechris> sahal: how did you get it to boot into windows?
[04:28] <lanzelloth> unixalot hmm ok
[04:28] <sahal> ubuntu detected it and put it in my menu.lst
[04:28] <sahal> i'm sure you can do the same manually
[04:28] <bastid_raZor> !fixgrub | thechris  you might need this.
[04:28] <thechris> sahal: no, its there, but just hangs
[04:29] <unixalot> lanzelloth: what kind of security are you trying to connect to
[04:29] <lanzelloth> sahal what're you trying to do?
[04:29] <nyaa_> grub was replaced with something else in 9.10
[04:29] <pixelfairy> so id like to ask that kvm be compiled with vde support, where / how do you do make a request like this?
[04:29] <nyaa_> which makes it a bit more troublesome!
[04:29] <sahal> lanzelloth: about?
[04:29] <lanzelloth> unixalot it's a wep :( (it's my parents' house)
[04:29] <blakkheim> lanzelloth: don't let your parents use wep
[04:30] <lanzelloth> sahal oh, I thought you were having problem with something
[04:30] <sahal> lanzelloth: well i am but its not related to grub
[04:30] <unixalot> lanzelloth: so you cannot connect to this network or what?
[04:30] <sahal> lanzelloth: gnome takes like 40 minutes to load
[04:30] <sahal> after i login using gdm
[04:30] <lanzelloth> blakkheim my dad needs wep so his phone can connect or some sh*t like that
[04:30] <thechris> lanzelloth: no, I'm having issues with the current bootloader not being able to boot winxp.
[04:31] <lanzelloth> unixalot the problem is they just changed it (it was wpa2) to wep and the nm-applet is not recognizing the change and kept trying the old settings even though I keep telling it to
[04:31] <lanzelloth> thechris oh ok
[04:31] <unixalot> lanzelloth: did you restart your comp
[04:31] <lanzelloth> sahal oh ok
[04:32] <lanzelloth> unixalot yeah and booted into windows and went here lol
[04:32] <unixalot> lanzelloth: I've had this same problem
[04:32] <unixalot> lanzelloth: so when you go back to linux, cant you go to nm-app and make a new profile
[04:32] <lanzelloth> unixalot I think i'll try again now, and i'm gonna remove that thing and install wicd
[04:32] <unixalot> lanzelloth: dontedit the one you have
[04:32] <unixalot> lanzelloth: wicd suuucks
[04:33] <lanzelloth> unixalot lol why?
[04:33] <korokos> How do i install pptp vpn on karmic?
[04:33] <unixalot> lanzelloth: delete the profile for your the wan, then create a new one, then restart
[04:33] <lanzelloth> unixalot i'm pretty pissed with the applet right now
[04:34] <charles__> is there a way to launch an application from the terminal and have the terminal return to a prompt?
[04:34] <neex> can anyone help me discover why my machine is generating endless dns traffic
[04:34] <unixalot> lanzelloth: yeah it works tho, I've had this same problem, wicd is even crappier in my opinion
[04:34] <neex> to the tune of > 100 requests/sec
[04:34] <unixalot> charles__: yeah add disown command
[04:34] <lanzelloth> unixalot I don't understand why they could spend development time on "the awesome" gnomeshell when their network manager is like this
[04:34] <unixalot> charles__: -a
[04:34] <charles__> oh, nice
[04:34] <bastid_raZor> charles__: application & disown
[04:34] <unixalot> charles__: disown -a
[04:34] <charles__> thank you :)
[04:34] <charles__> wait...
[04:34] <pixelfairy> charles__: or just add & after the command
[04:35] <charles__> myapplication -a
[04:35] <charles__> right?
[04:35] <bernardo> hello
[04:35] <pixelfairy> charles__: myapplication &
[04:35] <DSpair> Does anyone here have a link for installing Karmic Desktop on LVM2?
[04:35] <unixalot> charles__: myapplication & disown -a
[04:35] <charles__> okay, thank you again
[04:35] <brandon_oma_692> dr_willis  apt-cache search???
[04:35] <klappi> DSpair: i used the alternate install cd to do that
[04:35] <lanzelloth> o well gonna try again, see you guys
[04:35] <unixalot> lanzelloth: yeah, it has to do with the default keyring
[04:35] <DSpair> klappi: That is all that I need?
[04:35] <_Tristan> my wireless is almost working. I can see the networks, but when I go to connect to one it spins for about a minute before saying disconnected.
[04:36] <unixalot> _Tristan: Sounds like it doesnt have the rite key
[04:36] <DSpair> klappi: Thanks for the tip! I'm getting so sick of moving things around just because Karmic desktop doesn't do LVM be default.
[04:36] <_Tristan> unixalot: unprotected network
[04:36] <resno> how complicated is it to install windows next to a linux install?
[04:37] <unixalot> resno: not very
[04:37] <DSpair> You'd think with 2TB of disk space you wouldn't have to worry about moving things around much, but LVM would certainly be nice and user-friendly.... Click to add storage. Click to mirror storage... etc...
[04:37] <unixalot> resno: dual booting? is the question??
[04:37] <klappi> DSpair: apt-get install ubuntu-desktop should give you the gnome and stuff
[04:37] <resno> unixalot: yes, i plan on dual booting.
[04:37] <thechris> Can anyone help me dual boot?
[04:37] <unixalot> resno: if you do install windows before lilnux, if you install it vice versa windows will rape your master boot record
[04:37] <resno> thechris: which os is installed
[04:37] <thechris> I need winxp to actually boot, and not just hang
[04:38] <zurdo12> how is xubuntu?
[04:38] <DSpair> thechris: Sorry, I use virtual machines exclusively.
[04:38] <unixalot> resno: then you'll have to use live cd and fix your grub
[04:38] <resno> unixalot: yea, thats what i am afraid of
[04:38] <opticon> what can i use to make backups of ubuntu that are image based
[04:38] <unixalot> resno: grub is the gnome boot loader
[04:38] <unixalot> resno: **Linux
[04:38] <resno> unixalot: how complicated is fixing grub going to be?
[04:38] <resno> unixalot: should i use gparted to open the hd space u?
[04:39] <nyaa_> resno try installing a backport and installing grub over whatever 9.10 has
[04:39] <thechris> resno: winxp currently hangs before booting.  ubuntu works.
[04:39] <unixalot> resno: I dont undersand?
[04:39] <unixalot> resno: fixing grub is just mounting your boot partition from a live cd and running a few terminal commands
[04:40] <charles__> hmmm.... " & disown -a" doesn't seem to work. it takes me back to a prompt, but then i start getting messages
[04:40] <resno> unixalot: currently linux has the full disk, do i need to force linux into a small partition first?
[04:40] <unixalot> You need to set your partiton table to allow enough room for your windows install
[04:40] <resno> unixalot: and gparted is what i should use?
[04:40] <unixalot> You might have to use gparted and resize your ext3
[04:41] <unixalot> gparted from a live cd
[04:41] <resno> ok
[04:41] <unixalot> or the gparted live cd
[04:41] <thechris> Basically, windows won't boot after installing ubuntu
[04:41] <thechris> and I'd like to fix that
[04:41] <unixalot> thechris: you have to fix your grub
[04:41] <thechris> unixalot: how?
[04:42] <Dr_Willis> with 9.10 and grub2 - the 'update-grub' command should see/add a windows entry to the grub menus
[04:42] <unixalot> thechris: private message
[04:43] <_Tristan> I can see wireless networks but when I go to connect to them it only spins for a minute before saying "disconnected"
[04:45] <roboboy> okay so I have intel chipset 915g installed, I created my own xorg.conf file to tell it to use the mode "1920x1080" restarted X and it used 800x600 and th elog file says that hsync and vrefresh are both out of range, now I'm trying to see if I can use a 915resolution solution, but apparently the current package repositories don't include 915resolution, is this a deprecated way to solve the problem? anyone have some hints?
[04:45] <gtr> how do make Xchat only accessible on the Admin account?
[04:45] <aurilliance> I tried to update to 8.10, but now every time I start I get a shell, and when I try startx it says it cannot find a screen :( ???
[04:45] <DSpair> roboboy: 915resolution is definitely deprecated. Should not be needed any more.
[04:46] <r0b0tchicken> roboboy did you backup your original xorg.conf?   possibly might be a backup copy you can fall back to
[04:46] <E> can burning at a very slow speed on an old computer affect how the disc is read by newer/modern computers???
[04:46] <roboboy> its ubuntu 9.10, xorg was booting without a config file
[04:46] <Dr_Willis> E:  normally one wants to burn at slow speeds to be 'safest'
[04:46] <roboboy> I had to shut it down and run xorg -configure to make one to play with
[04:46] <DSpair> gtr: From a command prompt, "sudo chmod 744 /usr/bin/xchat && sudo chown root.admin /usr/bin/xchat"
[04:46] <gtr> thank you sir.
[04:46] <segaloco> sorry, sorry, just installed xchat
[04:46] <segaloco> be out in a bit
[04:47] <greezmunkey> lo
[04:47] <roboboy> so effectively, even though my monitor can easily handle 1920x1080, intel IGP can handle it, and the driver is supposed to support it, Xorg will not recognize that as a valid mode
[04:47] <DSpair> gtr: NP
[04:47] <roboboy> and 800x600 is beyond painful haha
[04:47] <aurilliance> in upgrading to 8.10, my xserver broke. How can i "roll back" ????
[04:48] <blankthemuffin> Hey I'm wondering if anybody knows a good app to create a video out of a image slideshow. It only has to be simple but I've tried Imagination and Videoporama and neither work. (The former crops all my images and the latter does not export, preview, anything)
[04:48] <coz_> blankthemuffin,  mm maybe  "Imagination: ?
[04:49] <Dr_Willis> blankthemuffin:  ive seen a few in the repos.. but never tried them. ffmpeg/mencoder also i thinkc an do it.. but that will take a little more work
[04:49] <coz_> blankthemuffin,  that is actually name of the application :)
[04:49] <blankthemuffin> I've tried Imagination and Videoporama and neither work. (The former crops all my images and the latter does not export, preview, anything) ( from my initial message coz_ :P )
[04:49] <coz_> BlackBinary,  oh!!  mmm
[04:49] <coz_> BlackBinary,  sorry guy
[04:50] <Dr_Willis> dvd-slideshow - tools to create dvd slideshow with menus
[04:50] <coz_> blankthemuffin,  oh mm
[04:50] <ChogyDan> Guest1023: I think in general, slow burning speeds tend to be more compatible
[04:50] <Dr_Willis> scale the images beforhand perhaps.
[04:50] <aurilliance> in upgrading to 8.10, my xserver broke. How can i "roll back" ????
[04:51] <blankthemuffin> yeah that's a good idea Dr_Willis, I'll try dvd slideshow then that. Thanks.
[04:51] <greezmunkey> What can I do to test / verify the serial port on this PC? (single serial port mounted to motherboard, I believe it is "seen" as ttyS0, buy unsure...) TIA
[04:51] <axisys> anyone knows what config should I pick here http://picpaste.com/Screenshot_1.png .. this is for my laptop that is on different network at different time
[04:52] <semitones> Hello -- does this channel provide support for Ubuntu with the LXDE desktop? I need to know how to add "nm-applet" to the list of startup applications
[04:53] <Dr_Willis> semitones:  I think lxde uses openbox or fluxbox for its window manager. check the docs for the wuindow manager it uses   theres also a #lununtu channel
[04:53] <Riverthief> Sup guys
[04:53] <Riverthief> What's the command to automatically start a wireless network from terminal?
[04:53] <Riverthief> (For Openbox)
[04:53] <Dr_Willis> oops #lubuntu :)
[04:53] <xangua> semitones: doesn't lxde uses #wicd¿
[04:54] <Dr_Willis>  Lubuntu - uses wicd - last i tried Lubuntu.
[04:54] <Riverthief> I tried wicd
[04:54] <unixalot> Lxde is so ugly
[04:54] <semitones> Dr_Willis: xangua: I think lxde uses openbox
[04:54] <Riverthief> But it screwed up haha
[04:54] <faultyground> I'm having some trouble figuring out ssh.  Ive got 2 boxes on a LAN, but they both refuse connection in either direction.  Advice?
[04:54] <Riverthief> Only just got my internet back 5 mins ago
[04:54] <semitones> Dr_Willis: trying #lubuntu
[04:54] <Dr_Willis> faultyground:  check firewall rules.
[04:54] <xangua> semitones: we are talking about the network manager, not the window's
[04:54] <Dr_Willis> faultyground:  see if they can 'ssh localhost' also
[04:54] <semitones> unixalot: it really is, but it's slightly faster
[04:55] <unixalot> faultyground: make sure the ports are forwarrd on your router
[04:55] <Riverthief> What's the WLAN equivilant of ifconfig eth0 up & dhclient eth0?
[04:55] <semitones> xangua: ah, k, so you're saying I need to configure wicd?
[04:55] <greezmunkey> Riverthief, what about iwconfig? the ifup / ifdown ??
[04:55] <faultyground> unixalot:  shouldnt be blocking local traffic should it?  theyre both connected to the same router
[04:55] <unixalot> faultyground: you have to have the port on the router forwared for ssh
[04:55] <faultyground> Dr_Willis: localhost also refused o.O
[04:55] <Riverthief> Will that allow me to start a connection to a particular pass-protected WLAN from terminal?
[04:56] <unixalot> faultyground: last time i was messing with a ssh it had to do with ports blocked on my router
[04:56] <Dr_Willis> faultyground:  You sure you got the ssh services installed then? Or you got some odd secuirity settings going on
[04:56] <unixalot> semitones: so ugly.. '
[04:56] <unixalot> faultyground: its only like one command to set a ssh server up
[04:56] <semitones> unixalot: the only really "ugly" part I'm finding is their logo, but what did you think?
[04:57] <semitones> unixalot: that, and all the config screens are awkward as hell
[04:57] <unixalot> semitones: i dont like the gradient of the menu bar
[04:57] <faultyground> Dr_Willis: I assume so, but I've just started trying to learn how to use ssh, so I wouldnt know for sure.  Tried on buth Ubuntu 9.10, and Knoppix
[04:57] <edbian> faultyground, sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[04:57] <Dr_Willis> faultyground:  ssh server is NOT installed by default on ubuntu
[04:57] <scottj> Is there a way to right click in an image and set as desktop like windows w/o it opening the file in an image viewer or even opening the desktop settings window? (nothign should open, the wallpaper should just change)
[04:57] <edbian> faultyground, And then you have an ssh server
[04:57] <unixalot> faultyground:  you need ssh server
[04:57] <roboboy> Someone cleverly suggested updating the BIOS for my computer, but the Dell only provides a windows executable, would it be monumentally stupid to try to use WINE to run the executable?
[04:57] <semitones> unixalot: good point -- there's also the way the open window tabs are shadowed, and spaced
[04:57] <Dr_Willis> roboboy:  yes it would be
[04:57] <Cann0n> whats the keys to make a process hide. then fg brings it back?
[04:57] <Cann0n> 
[04:57] <semitones> unixalot: it looks like it could use a few more revisions
[04:57] <edbian> roboboy, yeah probably
[04:57] <unixalot> semitones: Yeah, so effin ugly they should spruce it up a tad
[04:58] <unixalot> semitones: it is super fast tho, like on a craptop
[04:58] <Dr_Willis> Cann0n:  ctrl-z, bg, fg
[04:58] <roboboy> there a DOS cdrom? or is that also stupid? any workaround short of installed windows?
[04:58] <semitones> unixalot: which is what I'm using :)
[04:58] <edbian> roboboy, The thing about flashing the bios is that if you mess it up.  It ruins the motherboard.  (Unless you can solder on a new one)
[04:58] <Dr_Willis> Cann0n:  see 'bash job controll' docs for more info
[04:58] <faultyground> Dr_Willis, edbian, unixalot: AHA!  That explains much.  None of the howtos I read over mentioned that...  >.<
[04:58] <Dr_Willis> !sshd
[04:58] <DSpair> klappi: Looks like this is going to work great with the Alternate install ISO. Thanks for the help!
[04:59] <thechris> is there any way to run FIXMBR from linux?
[04:59] <Dr_Willis> roboboy:  if the bios updater is a DOS executable. the 'freedos' live cd may work
[04:59] <edbian> thechris, FIXMBR is a dos command installed in MS windows.
[04:59] <tbrock> hey guys I'm trying to set a samba share up, and I can access it from the network
[04:59] <DSpair> thechris: That would break Linux. You should use GRUB
[04:59] <tbrock> however
[04:59] <roboboy> Dr_Willis, thank you!
[04:59] <edbian> thechris, Short answer: not that I know of
[04:59] <tbrock> I cannot go into the folders within the share
[04:59] <thechris> DSpair: grub doesn't work.
[05:00] <thechris> DSpair: my plan is to get winxp bootable, and then try putting grub back on
[05:00] <edbian> thechris, fixing the mbr will put the windows boot loader there. The windows boot loader will not boot linux for you
[05:00] <DSpair> thechris: GRUB does work, it's just a matter of configuring it properly.
[05:00] <thechris> edbian: and grub won't allow winxp to boot _at all_ right not.
[05:00] <Dr_Willis> thechris:  theres some  boot/rescue live cd's that might have tools to do that (repair the windows bootloader) but i alsays use a windows cd.
[05:01] <Dr_Willis> thechris:  so no os's are working with grub.
[05:01] <thechris> Dr_Willis: after moving to grub, winxp is listed but no longer boots.  it hangs before the splash screen
[05:01] <DSpair> thechris: Linux boots, right?
[05:01] <thechris> DSpair: yes
[05:01] <wrapster> how can i know the transfer rate from the usb device? using the terminal?
[05:02] <DSpair> thechris: OK then, you can reconfigure GRUB from Linux and get it to allow booting into Windows XP. Here's a good link:http://devhood.com/Tutorials/tutorial_details.aspx?tutorial_id=405
[05:02] <thechris> DSpair: and grub attempts to allow winxp to boot.  but I get a black screen before the normal winxp splash
[05:02] <nick125> Anyone here know of a PPA that has a newer version of Pulseaudio that doesn't conflict with the ubuntu-desktop package?
[05:02] <tbrock> do the permissions for samba gues shares need to be set to samba
[05:02] <aurilliance> call me out of date, but I have ubuntu 6 running on a machine. Is it possible to jump all the in-between revisions, and simply upgrade straight to 9 ?
[05:03] <unixalot> thechris: you have to fix your grub
[05:03] <tbrock> err the group rather
[05:03] <kinja-sheep> nick125: ubuntu-desktop package can be removed.
[05:03] <nick125> aurilliance: Likely not, no.
[05:03] <thechris> unixalot: how?!
[05:03] <edbian> aurilliance, Using the CD but it is difficult to keep your files (unless you have a seperate home partition!)
[05:03] <unixalot> thechris: are you using karmic like grub2
[05:03] <aurilliance> ok
[05:03] <aurilliance> thanks both
[05:03] <thechris> unixalot: yep
[05:03] <nick125> kinja-sheep: Well, the package in the ubuntu-audio PPA wants to remove a few other packages as well...I'm not sure if it's because those packages are superseded or what.
[05:03] <unixalot> thechris: gotta run update-grub from terminal
[05:03] <unixalot> thechris: it should probe for other os
[05:04] <thechris> unixalot: that's not my problem -- windows is listed
[05:04] <thechris> unixalot: windows just doesn't boot
[05:04] <kinja-sheep> nick125: What few other packages?
[05:04] <archboxman> hold on a min unixalot  thechris are you still able to boot windows xp from gurb???
[05:04] <nick125> kinja-sheep: I forgot, but let me check.
[05:04] <DSpair> thechris: update-grub will change some options about how the GRUB bootloader kickstarts Windows.
[05:04] <koshari> anyone know why ekee segfaults on karmic
[05:04] <kinja-sheep> nick125: I don't have ubuntu-desktop or ubuntu-standard installed. :D
[05:05] <unixalot> archboxman: hangs b4 splash his xp does
[05:05] <thechris> archboxman: not quite, grub lists winxp.  but it hangs
[05:05] <archboxman> thechris: hangs for how long????
[05:05] <thechris> archboxman: until i reboot
[05:05] <lanzelloth> wicd > network-manager
[05:05] <nick125> kinja-sheep: libcanberra-pulse, padevchooser, paprefs, pulseaudio-dbg, pulseaudio-esound-compat, puloseaudio-esound-compat-dbg, pulseaudio-module-bluebooth...ubuntu-desktop
[05:06] <archboxman> thechris: edit grub... something is not right
[05:06] <thechris> DSpair: so what is the difference between update-grub, and update-grub2
[05:06] <tbrock> you guys have any ideas
[05:06] <unixalot> thechris: probably have to edit your grub.cfg
[05:06] <tbrock> i think it's a permissions issue
[05:06] <unixalot> thechris: the entrie for your windows
[05:06] <tbrock> i'm trying to setup a folder as a guest ok share using samba
[05:06] <tbrock> i can see the sahre
[05:07] <thechris> unixalot: what do I change it to?
[05:07] <tbrock> and browse some of the folders
[05:07] <unixalot> thechris: paste me your entrie in pastie
[05:07] <tbrock> but for some reason can't go as deep as I want due to an error
[05:07] <kinja-sheep> nick125: Hmm. Those are PulseAudio-related packages. If you were to use a different package, you could install those said packages again and see if that works.
[05:07] <archboxman> !pastebin
[05:07] <unixalot> thechris: pastie.org
[05:07] <xiambax> tbrock, is the user your logging into via samba have root access?
[05:08] <thechris> unixalot: http://pastie.org/812107
[05:08] <nick125> kinja-sheep: Hm. Apparently, Synaptic is a bit...odd. It turns out that the PPA provides those packages, but it doesn't want to use them.
[05:09] <thechris> maybe I should try using my previous grub
[05:09] <Nyx1> hello
[05:09] <catzz> Hello! How to set from gnomelook.org? :)
[05:09] <xangua> ¿¿
[05:09] <catzz> srr :D
[05:10] <catzz> Hello! How to set a theme from gnomelook.org? :)
[05:10] <Nyx1> I have a question about a wireless card
[05:10] <Dr_Willis> !changethemes | catzz
[05:10] <unixalot> thechris: run a sudo fstab -a
[05:10] <catzz> !changethemes | catzz
[05:10] <nick125> kinja-sheep: This is strange. Let me try aptitude instead
[05:10] <kinja-sheep> nick125: I'm not a big fan of Synaptic -- Try the terminal. Sometimes PPA have more than just one package.
[05:10] <unixalot> thechris: wait
[05:10] <Dr_Willis> catzz:  thers several themes and theme parts in the repos. and the tool 'gnome-art' and 'gnome-artng' also make it easy to install dozens of themes and theme parts
[05:11] <unixalot> whats the command to display partition table
[05:11] <unixalot> fstab?
[05:11] <catzz> Dr_Willis: i found emerald theme
[05:11] <thechris> fdisk -l
[05:11] <catzz> how to set it?
[05:11] <unixalot> pastie me that
[05:11] <Dr_Willis> catzz:  emerals id basically dead.. i would not bother using Emerald
[05:11] <Nyx1> nyx@Cassandra:~$ sudo ifconfig wlan0 up
[05:11] <Nyx1> SIOCSIFFLAGS: Unknown error 132
[05:11] <[BT]Brendan> The Mic line in on laptop doesn't work on Ubuntu. How can I go about troubleshooting this?
[05:11] <unixalot> catzz: you gotta do it threw emerald
[05:11] <catzz> well which should i use?
[05:12] <Nyx1> I've been getting this error whenever I try to use my wifi card
[05:12] <thechris> unixalot: http://pastie.org/812111
[05:12] <Nyx1> er, wireless card
[05:12] <Dr_Willis> catzz:  use the normal gnome themes. and the tools i mentioned
[05:12]  * unixalot is using emerald
[05:12] <catzz> well how? :D
[05:12] <Dr_Willis> !changethemes | catzz
[05:12] <catzz> srr but i am total novice
[05:13] <Dr_Willis> catzz:  so go read the url the bot gave you just now?
[05:13] <catzz> sec!
[05:13] <Dr_Willis> 0_o
[05:13] <catzz> well can i use Compiz?
[05:13] <Nyx1> anyone feel up to helping me fix a wireless card problem?
[05:13] <unixalot> thechris: needs help fixing his menuentry for xp with grub2 anyone got any ideas
[05:14] <catzz> if emerald is dead :D
[05:14] <mobius2> ubuntu update manager put a very nice video driver on my computer,  and now I've broken it. I can't seem to figure out how to put things back how they were. Would it be possible to reinstall the correct driver if I had it on a different hard drive?
[05:14] <unixalot> catzz: emerald not dead
[05:14] <Dr_Willis> catzz:  you most likely are using compiz allready.. and compiz will use the normal gnome themes
[05:14] <Dr_Willis> !emerald
[05:14] <thechris> unixalot: it might be that the fbsd install messed up something.
[05:14] <catzz> o ok
[05:14] <thechris> in the past I think I was able to get win32 to boot with fdisk /mbr
[05:15] <scottj> !beryl
[05:15] <archboxman> thechris: were is the grub file????
[05:15] <unixalot> thechris: yeah mang like, i've never seen the drivemap -s (hd0) ${root} command in a menuentry
[05:15] <Xpistos> is anyone else haveing trouble with chromium closing after it launches? Started right after an update.
[05:16] <archboxman> thechris: want to see it nothing else
[05:16] <Xpistos> chrome is fine, but chromium - not so much
[05:16] <archboxman> thechris: I don't want df want menu.lst file nothing else
[05:16] <thechris> unixalot: that's the default.  trying an old "root (hd0,1); chainloader +1; boot" from the grub cli doesn't work either
[05:16] <unixalot> archboxman: he has grub2 he has no menu.lst
[05:16] <thechris> and rootnoverify is gone
[05:17] <Nyx1> Xpistos: I haven't been having that issue, 32 or 64 bit?
[05:17] <thechris> archboxman: menu.lst no longer exists in grub2
[05:17] <archboxman> unixalot: let me look around be back in a quick second
[05:17] <koshari> anyone know why ekee segfaults, on ubuntu karmic with pastebin.com/m70fabd3f  ?
[05:17] <Xpistos> Nyx1: 32
[05:17] <Xpistos> I just did an update and reboot and now chromium is acting up
[05:17] <unixalot> archboxman: http://pastie.org/812107
[05:17] <scunizi> unixalot: archboxman even with grub2 he *does* have a menu.lst but it's dynamically written after each reboot..
[05:17] <rap424> Can anyone help me with vsftpd giving me a broken pipe error? It only gives this when I am trying to upload files over TLS, but with regular FTP I can download and upload. I have checked my configuration files and nothing has changed
[05:17] <ekim> If I want to add a data drive to my linux box, do I need to format it as ext3?  Also, when I plugged it in will it get recognized before format?
[05:17] <rap424> It used to work fine a couple days ago
[05:17] <unixalot> scunizi: http://pastie.org/812111
[05:17] <unixalot> scunizi: http://pastie.org/812107
[05:18] <Nyx1> Xpistos: Strange, I can't say I've been having that problem
[05:18] <Xpistos> ekim: I like your nick
[05:18] <ekim> Xpistos, thanks!
[05:18] <Dr_Willis> ekim:  it will get 'seen/recognized' so you can then partion/format it as needed.
[05:18] <Xpistos> ekim: It is almost my last name.
[05:18] <Xpistos> just at ogloy on the end
[05:18] <Xpistos> lol
[05:18] <Dr_Willis> ekim:  then you will want to add a proper entry to the /etc/fstab
[05:19] <Xpistos> Nyx1: It just started, it is kind of like what f-spot has been doing if you have the wrong theme engine
[05:19] <ekim> Xpistos, well if it is almost, then at least I cant get sued. ;D
[05:19] <unixalot> thechris: SHould you hd be (hd0,0)
[05:19] <unixalot> or (hd1,0)
[05:19] <unixalot> instead of w.e it is
[05:19] <Xpistos> ekim: Just don't try and trademark it and we'll be alright. ha!
[05:20] <thechris> unixalot: not in grub2, they changed partitions to 1 indexed
[05:20] <Nyx1> Xpistos: Hm, that is weird. Did you do a system update, or update chromium, or both?
[05:20] <Dr_Willis> yea grub2 changed how partions start. (i recall) i never can rember the details..
[05:20] <unixalot> thechris: lmao wow, see im still using jaunty cause i hate grub2 cus you cant just edit menu.lst and fix it
[05:20] <steven_> exit
[05:20] <thechris> unixalot: I had tried (hd0,0) from the grub cli and was informed of this.
[05:20] <ekim> Dr_Willis, not sure what you mean by proper or /etc/fstab....kinda new at this.
[05:20] <Xpistos> Well i got a system update notification and nothing looked strange so i did it and then it asked for a reboot
[05:20] <unixalot> thechris: yes makes sense they improved something
[05:20] <Xpistos> then bam
[05:20] <ekim> Xpistos, LOL
[05:20] <Dr_Willis> !fstab  | ekim
[05:20] <scunizi> unixalot: I just came in so I'm not aware of what the problem is.. look like you might have some partitioning issues with the fdisk -l listing.. Your boot partition appears to be sda2 which would be (hd 0,1)
[05:21] <unixalot> No he is trying to get his xp to boot
[05:21] <Dr_Willis> with grub2  sda2 = hd0,2 I thought,
[05:21] <unixalot> scunizi: his xp wont boot its on sda1
[05:21] <Nyx1> Xpistos: I can't say I know what's wrong. sorry
[05:21] <scunizi> Dr_Willis: grub always starts counting at 0
[05:21] <Xpistos> Nyx1:  the only reason I know is becuse I am configuring a server and a vnc
[05:21] <Dr_Willis> scunizi:  grub2 changes the # of the partions starting.
[05:21] <unixalot> scunizi: even grub2??
[05:22] <Xpistos> Nyx1: No big just seeing if anyone knew anything. thanks for responding btw
[05:22] <ekim> Dr_Willis, thanks for the link.  Will I have to use Putty or something like that to access it from a windows pc?
[05:22] <thechris> i'm pretty sure its easier to find a way to run dos's fdisk /mbr, and then fix grub afterwards.
[05:22] <Nyx1> Xpistos: No problem, i have found it difficult sometimes to get people to respond
[05:22] <scunizi> unixalot: Dr_Willis grub2 is still a little bit of a mystery to me.. grub 1 started counting at 0.. not sure what grub2 starts counting at..
[05:22] <Dr_Willis> ekim:  to access what?  fstab is a config file you edit however you want.
[05:22] <Dr_Willis> scunizi:  thats one BIG change in grub2 that confuses people. thats why i mentioned it. :)
[05:22] <unixalot> thechris: grub2 starts counting at whatever the partition is or something
[05:22] <archboxman> thechris: did you do update-grub2 in the command line
[05:23] <thechris> scunizi: for whatever reason, partitions are 1 indexed while devices are still 0 indexed)
[05:23] <scunizi> Dr_Willis: ah.. :)
[05:23] <thechris> archboxman: yes
[05:23] <unixalot> archboxman: yea i told him to, does he have to sudo that command??
[05:23] <ekim> Dr_Willis, to access the h/d once I put my data on it.  I will need to access files from a windows pc also.
[05:23] <scunizi> thechris:  nothing like a little confusion between releases.
[05:23] <thechris> unixalot: i would assume.
[05:23] <unixalot> thechris: you did sudo it lol eh?
[05:23] <Dr_Willis> ekim:  then you will want to make a samba share, or use winscp  to access it
[05:24] <iiz> Hello. I have a question about sata drives. I have 5 drives plugged into my motherboard sata ports. 4 of them show up as /dev/sd* the 5th drive shows up as /dev/hdd. I also have 1 old pata drive for boot. Is it a bad thing that one sata drive is showing up as an hd*?
[05:24] <thechris> unixalot: I assumed i would have to
[05:24] <Dr_Willis> iiz:  sounds like a quirk in the bios.
[05:25] <archboxman> thechris: run this command? apt-get install os-prober auto update for grub2
[05:25] <iiz> Dr_willis thanks will check the settings.
[05:25] <unixalot> thechris: I know the boot flag on sda2 shouldnt matter to grub
[05:25] <unixalot> archboxman: hows archbox treatin yeah?
[05:25] <Dr_Willis> iiz:  i doubt if it hurts anything.
[05:26] <Nyx1> I have this wireless card: 00:0b.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 03) that has been giving me trouble. When I try to pull it up with ifconfig, I get this error : SIOCSIFFLAGS: Unknown error 132 . I have tried reinstalling the driver, compiling the driver, and using the ndiswrapper driver. Any suggestions or bright ideas? I would really like to get the wireless to work. It randomly worked 
[05:26] <ekim> Dr_Willis, okay, I will check that out too.  Thx.
[05:26] <archboxman> unixalot: work great lot of confige files... some software not quite uptodate and others ahead of the curve ... just waiting for archlinux to make google-gadgets available...
[05:27] <unixalot> archboxman: yeah im still using 9.04, am tempted to install debain but some guys just realeased alpha drivers for osx so i might try that out
[05:27] <unixalot> archboxman: for my wireless card
[05:28] <unixalot> archboxman: osx was installed but what good is it without wirelss lol.. so i might try again with this new driver, only supports unencrypted networks atm
[05:28] <chelz> Nyx1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessTroubleShootingGuide
[05:28] <archboxman> unixalot: it seems like archlinux keeps abreast of all cutting edge software... didn't even know firefox had a new release..
[05:28] <Nyx1> chelz: thanks
[05:29] <chelz> iiz: not at all, that's fine
[05:29] <unixalot> archboxman: i only use firefox for the downthemall plugin cus i got rapidshare premmy
[05:29] <semitones> adventures in lubuntu -- I've accidentally removed the logoff icon from the panel -- and there appears to be no option to put it back! argh
[05:29] <chelz> unixalot: check out JDownloader
[05:29] <unixalot> chelz: downthemall is about ten time better
[05:29] <Dr_Willis> semitones:  see #lubuntu :)
[05:29] <unixalot> chelz: imo
[05:29] <chelz> semitones: right click "add to panel"?
[05:30] <Dr_Willis> lubuntu uses the lxpanel i think
[05:30] <chelz> unixalot: ah, loading up firefox is quite a lot compared to jD, for me at least
[05:30] <archboxman> unixalot: still waiting to see what becomes of apt-fast in ubuntu or debian??
[05:30] <semitones> Dr_Willis: i'm already there :) thought there might be insight to gain by coming here too
[05:30] <unixalot> chelz: I dont like how its java.. and the ease of use of downthemall built into firefox is a convenience for me
[05:30] <chelz> oh lubuntu is a thing, i thought people were just calling ubuntu lubuntu
[05:30] <chelz> unixalot: ah that's fine. as long as you've tried it. i personally really like it
[05:30] <Gryllida> Hi.
[05:30] <greezmunkey> Dr_Willis, I'm not up on the latest hardware, so forgive me... If I want to build a PC for Ubuntu that incorporates a SATA RAID controller, should that be an issue on install?
[05:31] <unixalot> chelz: my experience with it was constant freezingall the time
[05:31] <unixalot> chelz: besides the fact its ugly
[05:31] <chelz> archboxman: ubuntuzilla is what i use to keep current with firefox on ubuntu
[05:31] <semitones> chelz: that's what I'm trying, but "logoff button" doesn't seem to be an option unfortunately
[05:31] <scunizi> archboxman: there's also a daily PPA for FF..
[05:31] <chelz> scunizi: that's a dev thing though, not really stable releases
[05:32] <xangua> scunizi: better try 'firefox-stable ppa'
[05:32] <unixalot> I dont dig daily builds, too many bugs
[05:32] <scunizi> chelz: true.. but it works for me.. :).. I haven't had any issues with it.
[05:32] <unixalot> scunizi: i'd rather use a nightly build than a daily lol
[05:33] <ekim> Dr_Willis, sorry for another dumb question but what do I call that data drive?
[05:33] <catzz> Hello i have driver for scaner Canon Pixma mp 270 on disc! But it is for windows can i some how install it on ubuntu?
[05:33] <Gryllida> I know Ubuntu 10.4 will come on April 29th. It is going to be Long-Term-Support. Should I wait for it? Or should I install 9.10 Short-Term-Support and than update to 10.4 L-T-S later? When updating, will I have to install my favorite applications (LyX, for example) from scratch?
[05:34] <xangua> Gryllida: if you use hardy, better wait
[05:34] <chelz> catzz: ubuntu and other linux distros only really use windows wireless drivers, otherwise all drivers are specific to linux
[05:34] <catzz> so i can just install from CD?
[05:34] <iiz> chelz thanks i wasn't sure it cought me off guard when i saw it :)
[05:34] <chelz> Gryllida: LTS to LTS is probably better
[05:35] <archboxman> chelz: not really looking to keep track of software updates... I do trends analysis not software analysis... I track CES 2010 and xbox, ps3, electronics, 3d lcd, usb 3.0 and other data....
[05:35] <Dr_Willis> ekim:  Mount it whever you want under whatever name you want.. ie:  /media/VacationPics
[05:35] <unixalot> w00t ps3
[05:35] <ekim> Dr_Willis, okay...I think I got it.
[05:35] <_schism_> evening all
[05:35] <chelz> archboxman: then just use what ubuntu provides :)
[05:35] <catzz> so i can just install from CD?
[05:36] <catzz> drivers
[05:36] <unixalot> !emerald
[05:36] <Dr_Willis> catzz:  the drives may allready be in the repos
[05:36] <chelz> catzz: no, ubuntu will probably already have the drivers. try plugging in the device and using a photo manager application with it.
[05:36] <archboxman> chelz: forget ubuntu its to bloated I use archlinux :)
[05:36] <chelz> archboxman: you're in the wrong channel then, and that's offtopic :P
[05:36] <_schism_> anyone know of a way to get 7 to read a ubuntu 9.10 partition?  Google has had me install more stuff that has screwd up 7 and makes me happier than ever I dont have to use it much but.....
[05:36] <unixalot> Funny cause i use emerald and like it, a lot more then the compiz window decorator
[05:36] <catzz> there are only PIXMA MP220 i have PIXMA MP 270
[05:37] <Dr_Willis>  I wonder if emerald is even in the next release repos.
[05:37] <unixalot> Lol, probly not..
[05:37] <chelz> _schism_: there is an ext2 driver for windows but support for non-ubuntu stuff is not provided here. try #windows
[05:37] <archboxman> chelz: software usually just gets the idea of pimp my software and add-on crazy... look at googles chormium...
[05:37] <macman_> how do you change the filename / label of an iso ?
[05:37] <semitones> _schism_: best bet would be fsdriver.org, but I don't know if they've added win7 support yet
[05:37] <chelz> !offtopic | archboxman
[05:37] <unixalot> Dr_Willis: i recently found this site, you select your ubuntu version, then select all the app's you want and ti creates customized sources.list
[05:38] <_schism_> chelz thank you sir just trying to get back over to ubuntu as fast as possible and need a file off my ~
[05:38] <Gryllida> " <xangua>	Gryllida: if you use hardy, better wait" I 'm not using Linux yet, I'm going to install it - just I don't know whether now or in May and what version
[05:38] <Dr_Willis> unixalot:  the ubuntu-tweak tool does a similer thing
[05:38] <scunizi> macman_: right mouse click and "rename"
[05:38] <_schism_> semitones thank you sir I will look at it and see what happens
[05:38] <unixalot> unixalot: im using jaunty, my ubuntu tweak is not pro like in karmic
[05:38] <semitones> _schism_: that driver will help you if you have an ext ubuntu partition
[05:39] <Gryllida> "xangua: Gryllida: if you use hardy, better wait LTS to LTS is probably better" I 'm not using Linux yet, I'm going to install it - just I don't know whether now or in May and what version. What suggestions do you have?
[05:39] <chelz> Gryllida: you could look into the differences between LTS and non-LTS releases and decide based on that. for most people, normal releases are fine though.
[05:39] <_schism_> semitones: yep it is on the same hard drive just a different partition
[05:39] <Gryllida> "  differences between LTS and non-LTS releases " - where can I find them
[05:39] <Dr_Willis> !lts
[05:39] <xangua> Gryllida: if you like it then install karmic koala, there are still 3 more months left to lucid lynx
[05:40] <chelz> Gryllida: at least you could setup a dual-boot and if it doesn't work then wait for the next LTS
[05:40] <chelz> Gryllida: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS
[05:40] <scunizi> Gryllida: you got the link for LTS.. the releases in between can be great or problemmatic..
[05:40] <catzz> What should i do if ubuntu has only PIXMA MP 220 driver when i have printer PIXMA MP270
[05:41] <Gryllida> Great or problematic? These are antonyms.
[05:42] <scunizi> Gryllida: yep... just depends.. in-between LTS releases you can expect to experience the growing pains of new features, technologies, etc..
[05:42] <r0b0tchicken> On a P4 2.66ghz, with 1gb of ram, (karmic), I am currently running pidgin with a yahoo accnt and irc , listening to an mp3  off a usb hd in totem, and i have a conky script monitoring things.   I have 65mb of ram free.   Is that normal?  top ram usage is pidgin at 5.87% which is about 58mb.
[05:42] <catzz> What should i do if ubuntu has only PIXMA MP 220 driver when i have printer PIXMA MP270?
[05:42] <chelz> r0b0tchicken: do you have a functioning swap partition?
[05:42] <scottj> what's the diff between aptitude and apt-get? is aptitude just a combination of apt-get and soem features from dpkg?
[05:43] <blakkheim> r0b0tchicken: free -m | grep buffers
[05:43] <scottj> !aptitude
[05:43] <Gryllida> catzz: http://software.canon-europe.com/products/0010753.asp
[05:43] <Dr_Willis> catzz:  theck the cups.org and guttenprint sites to see what drivers the thing needs/uses.. I for one am never going to buy canon again they dont support linux very well
[05:43] <xangua> r0b0tchicken: that's not normal indeed :S
[05:43] <r0b0tchicken> blakkheim, used 324 free 677
[05:43] <blakkheim> you have 677mb of free ram then
[05:44] <blakkheim> ;\
[05:44] <ouyes> r0b0tchicken, i suggest you turn to xubuntu, it is faster tham gnome,
[05:44] <blakkheim> ouyes: barely
[05:44] <chelz> catzz: scanning drivers are supposedly included with scanning software scangearmp
[05:44] <Gryllida> catzz: here it is: MP270_debian_driver_pack.tar  	 	http://software.canon-europe.com/software/0037268.asp?model=
[05:44] <r0b0tchicken> blakkheim, thank you for the education, i was relying too much on a conky script... :P
[05:44] <ouyes> r0b0tchicken, you have a p4 506 cpu right?
[05:44] <r0b0tchicken> ouyes what do  you mean 506?
[05:44] <catzz> Niiiice!!!! Thanks a lot guys!
[05:44] <catzz> :)
[05:44] <ouyes> blakkheim, what you mean barely?
[05:44] <semitones> ouyes: I was just disillusioned recently -- they're very similar in terms of performance. lxde, on the other hand, is faster, albeit not as pretty
[05:44] <Gryllida> catzz, thanks to me or to whom?
[05:45] <blakkheim> ouyes: xubuntu is also very bloated
[05:45] <timboy> is there a channel for intel macs running ubuntu?
[05:45] <unixalot> semitones: lxde is so ug, stick with gnome
[05:45] <catzz> for you specialy!
[05:45] <ouyes> r0b0tchicken, your cpu type is p4 506, 2.66GHz
[05:45] <catzz> really helped! :)
[05:45] <r0b0tchicken> ouyes , correct
[05:45] <semitones> ouyes: blakkheim: it didn't always use to be this way. xubuntu was once lightweight
[05:46] <r0b0tchicken> but when i ran free/m   it said free 56mb, thats what freaked me out
[05:46] <semitones> unixalot: but gnome makes firefox go sooo sloooow
[05:46] <_schism_> lxde is real light and runs very well
[05:46] <unixalot> semitones: use chrome
[05:46] <xangua> semitones: xubuntu is light, yo ujsut have to desactivate gnome and kde services ;)
[05:46] <semitones> unixalot: I use chrome. same problem
[05:46] <r0b0tchicken> i have experienced hard locks  in 9.04 and 9.10, when i was doing hardly anything at all, just a few things open.  i guess i should mention i have a geforce 6200 as well
[05:47] <chelz> Gryllida: when 10.04 gets released, upgrading from 8.04 will be similar to this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades#Upgrade%20from%206.06%20LTS%20to%208.04%20LTS
[05:47] <ouyes> semitones, blakkheim r0b0tchicken i have been using gnome xfce, i feel xfce is faster than gnome,but gnome is more beautiful
[05:47] <semitones> xangua: thanks for the tip :) services such as what?
[05:47] <blakkheim> xangua: "light" is subjective, i believe xubuntu is not light at all
[05:47] <merma> gnome > xfce
[05:47] <scunizi> ouyes: check out kde 4.3 / 4.3
[05:47] <scunizi> 4.4
[05:47] <unixalot> gnome is as light as i'll go
[05:47] <merma> gnome > kde
[05:47] <unixalot> I dont care if its 'slow'
[05:47] <joe75> gnome ftw
[05:47] <chelz> r0b0tchicken: do you have a functioning swap partition?
[05:47] <unixalot> ITs fast enuff for me
[05:47] <semitones> ouyes: I also use xfce, and it defintely is faster, just not xubuntu in general is faster than ubuntu
[05:47] <xangua> semitones: don't remember, but there was an option to desactivate them and #wow, my used ram turned half
[05:47] <unixalot> and 10x better than kde
[05:48] <r0b0tchicken> chelz i have a swap of ~600mb, but i have it monitored in a conky script and usage always = 0
[05:48] <ouyes> scunizi, why, gnome is slow to me, why try kde?
[05:48] <semitones> xangua: awesome! If you could find where it is I'd really like to do that
[05:48] <merma> im considering switching to a tiling wm
[05:48] <merma> or integrating a tiling wm in gnome
[05:48] <xangua> semitones: a long time i don't use xfce :S
[05:48] <semitones> :)
[05:48] <edomeda> hey guys, can someone please help me out with compiz setting.  I'm trying to set it where I can rotate the desktop cube (viewports) by using the scroll wheel on a empty desktop space ONLY.  I can get it to rotate all the time (even on open windows) via rotate cube bindings, but I want only when scroll wheel is used on empty desktop... any help?
[05:48] <scunizi> ouyes: if gnome is slow then kde will be close.. crunchbang will be faster by far. better then xubuntu xfce
[05:48] <psycho_oreos> semitones, you can get xubuntu or xubuntu-desktop
[05:48] <ouyes> semitones, yes the case is not in general, but in 9.10 it is
[05:48] <timboy> have a macbook pro 5,5 and brightness won't go down... :(
[05:48] <psycho_oreos> !xubuntu
[05:49] <titan_ark> unixalot: why do you feel they are better than kde?
[05:49] <merma> gnome can do the same job without the bloat
[05:49] <merma> and i hate the kde peanut
[05:49] <unixalot> kde is ugly
[05:49] <unixalot> gnome is so slick imo
[05:49] <merma> indeed
[05:49] <unixalot> so simple..
[05:49] <chelz> edomeda: if that isn't supported by compiz natively, it would be hard to do
[05:49] <Dr_Willis> C64 Geos was Slicker then
[05:49] <tsimpson> !ot
[05:49] <unixalot> what more could anyone want
[05:49] <chelz> edomeda: you could try asking the compiz people
[05:49] <semitones> unixalot: you seem to have a very specific criteria for beauty :P
[05:50] <unixalot> why change a good thing like xfce, i know why people use it for speed reasons
[05:50] <edomeda> chelz, um, yeah, I've done it in previous releases.  Something in 9.10 changed
[05:50] <titan_ark> unixalot: i seem to like the kde interface, but i have to admit the gnome and xfce interfaces are easier to use. and this is the opinion of a n00b
[05:50] <unixalot> Lol..
[05:50] <merma> kde has a nice theme ...... but their UI layout is horrible
[05:50] <semitones> unixalot: but I agree, kde doesn't look very pretty imo
[05:50] <chelz> edomeda: are you using the compiz settings tool?
[05:50] <unixalot> titan_ark: I just like the looks / simplicity of gnome in general
[05:50] <edomeda> chelz, yes (not the simple one though)
[05:50] <unixalot> semitones: and gnome-do, not that you cant run it in kde
[05:50] <archboxman> edomeda: what are you talking about do in compiz that has changed???
[05:50] <merma> and kde is fille with warning messages everywhere
[05:51] <xangua> !ot
[05:51] <xangua> go to the offtopic channel people
[05:51] <edomeda> archboxman, not sure what you said
[05:51] <ouyes> scunizi, i have never tried kde but iwill one day when i get a faster cpu, now my cpu is p7370 2.0GHz, it is slow to running mutil tasks in one time in ubuntu(gnome)
[05:51] <r0b0tchicken> blakkheim, so why does free /m show only ~50mb of ram free, but the command you gave me show 624?
[05:51] <archboxman> edomeda: what has changed in your compiz????
[05:51] <blakkheim> r0b0tchicken: dunno
[05:51] <titan_ark> unixalot:  :)
[05:52] <titan_ark> xangua: i apologize
[05:52] <unixalot> ouyes: turn off compiz?
[05:52] <edomeda> archboxman, the ability to rotate the cube (viewports) by using the scroll wheel on mouse up/down on the empty desktop
[05:52] <unixalot> *me only uses compiz for wobbly windowzzz
[05:52]  * unixalot epic fail
[05:52] <joe75> :P
[05:52] <chelz> edomeda: it could be a change due to a newer version of compiz
[05:52] <scunizi> ouyes: you like what you like and trying the one's that interest you is the only way to find what pleases you best.. it's all about what *you* like
[05:53] <ouyes> unimatrix,  i do not know if i have turned on compiz, but i have set the visual effect to medium
[05:53] <merma> im so excited to see how people in ubuntu will react to the gnome shell
[05:53] <archboxman> edomeda: you didn't set up compiz cube right was do you have turned on??
[05:53] <unixalot> ouyes: if you have a crappy processor turn it rite off
[05:53] <unixalot> ouyes: like visual effects to none
[05:54] <r0b0tchicken> for example, right now i only have conky and pigin opened, and free shows  1026484 total, 950100 used, 76384 free, 0 shared, 255052 buffers, and 382576 cached,   and swap shows 610428 total, 0 used, 610428 free.   im just wondering if there is something i can ~fix?
[05:54] <timboy> is there a channel for intel macs running ubuntu?
[05:54] <unixalot> timboy: teh hardware is the same?
[05:54] <semitones> timboy: that would probably be here
[05:54] <edomeda> archboxman, yes, and I can rotate with ctl-alt-mouse1 as before.  Also ctl-alt-left_arrow and right_arrow works.  Just the mouse rotate on desktop stopped working in 9.10
[05:54] <timboy> can't get my brighness to adjust unixalot semitones
[05:55] <unixalot> does anyone have any leet scripts they'd like to share with me
[05:55] <Josh90> I think this may be weird but I still learning. I made another user on my account log in to it and tried using sudo nautilus of course it would let me. But it said that someone will be notified just wondering how do I get notified
[05:55] <archboxman> edomeda: hold on
[05:55] <scunizi> r0b0tchicken: linux manages memory differently.. just because it looks like it's eating your ram don't worry about it.
[05:55] <chelz> timboy: what hardware?
[05:55] <Ubee> Good evening everyone.
[05:55] <xangua> timboy: are you using karmic¿
[05:55] <semitones> timboy: using the function keys for brightness?
[05:55] <timboy> using karmic macbook pro 5,5
[05:55] <edomeda> archboxman, I'm sure it's a plugin setting, but I cannot find it for the life of me.
[05:55] <unixalot> xangua: do your function keys work ??
[05:55] <timboy> semitones, tried function keys and the brightness applet
[05:55] <unixalot> timboy: do your function keys work??
[05:56] <r0b0tchicken> scunizi, you have me pegged i was thinking "geez whats wrong here??", but i am trying to troubleshoot random hard-locks also.
[05:56] <timboy> unixalot, yes
[05:56] <semitones> unixalot: I just asked him that :)
[05:56] <xangua> unixalot: mime yes, but i don't use a macbook
[05:56] <Ubee> Does anyone know how I can download google repositories?
[05:56] <nick125> What the heck. Any ideas why aptitude is trying to pull in a bunch of old kernels?
[05:56] <semitones> hmm, does anybody else know if macbook pros have a problem with brightness on ubuntu?
[05:56] <timboy> all function keys work even KB backlight dims fine
[05:56] <maco> nick125: you could ask it
[05:56] <maco> nick125: aptitude why <package name>
[05:56] <unixalot> timboy: so the fn key for turning display brightness up fails?
[05:56] <archboxman> edomeda: go into ccsm go to cub look at the tab for bindings and rotote cub...
[05:57] <nick125> maco: I'm in the (n)curses UI
[05:57] <scunizi> r0b0tchicken: that's an entirely different issue.. you might have to check your logs to figure that one out.. /var/logs for the list of different one.. which one to look at ? there I'd be lost
[05:57] <timboy> unixalot, the gui meter changes VERY SLOWLY but brightness never increases or decreases
[05:57] <archboxman> edomeda: ccsm > rotatoe cube > tab bindings > rotate cube
[05:57] <r0b0tchicken> scunizi, thank you for the pointers, all help appreciated
[05:57] <unixalot> timboy: and you tried your power management options?
[05:57] <timboy> unixalot, no
[05:58] <neex> can anyone help me discover why my linux machine is doing dozens of dns requests a second?
[05:58] <maco> nick125: ok
[05:58] <maco> nick125: umm....
[05:58] <scunizi> r0b0tchicken: you running gnome?  what kind of video card?
[05:58] <chelz> timboy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro5-3/Karmic#Keyboard
[05:58] <unixalot> timboy: system >> prefrences >> power management
[05:58] <r0b0tchicken> scunizi yes, geforce 6200 agp
[05:58] <chelz> timboy: or https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro6-1/Karmic#Keyboard
[05:58] <edomeda> archboxman, tried that one, it always rotates the cube (even if an app is in the foreground)  Before, it only would rotate when you used it on the desktop.  Just like window maker and many other WMs do.
[05:59] <nick125> Ugh. This is going badly. If I try to remove that particular version of linux-image, it tries to remove the headers, which tries to remove libc and coreutils
[05:59] <scunizi> r0b0tchicken: and did you activate the driver in System>admin>hardware drivers?
[05:59] <r0b0tchicken> scunzi, yes
[05:59] <maco> nick125: i dont think you can use "why" in the tui
[05:59] <ouyes> unixalot, you chose gnome because you want its beauty, then for a better performance you disable something beautiful, then why not turn to xfce, it is another kind of beauty but a good performance, sometimes we just can not simply comprimise
[05:59] <r0b0tchicken> and i have compiz set to "none"
[05:59] <chelz> timboy: kind of outdated but might work: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro5-5/Jaunty#Keyboard
[05:59] <scunizi> r0b0tchicken: the 173's or 185 driver
[05:59] <Dr_Willis> i find xfce lacking in features i want/need
[05:59] <timboy> chelz, been there nothing says anything about screen brightness adjustment not working...
[05:59] <r0b0tchicken> 185 but i will double-check
[05:59] <archboxman> edomeda: intiate shoud show ctrl+alt+button1 for mouse yes no ???
[06:00] <timboy> unixalot, what do I do in power management gui?
[06:00] <unixalot> ouyes: my comp runs fine with visual effects cranked full.. my laptop, im suggesting for you who has trouble multi tasking to turn visual effects off
[06:00] <r0b0tchicken> yes scunizi 185
[06:00] <unixalot> timboy: there is probably a settings for backlit
[06:00] <chelz> timboy: the section i linked you to on all pages is " Keyboard functions (Brightness,volume,...) ". those steps need to be done to make brightness work.
[06:00] <scunizi> r0b0tchicken: try switching to the other one and see what happens..
[06:00] <timboy> chelz, fn keys work fine
[06:00] <echosystm> anyone know how i can get 3 monitors in linux?
[06:01] <edomeda> archboxman, yes, it is.  That is a different rotate as well.  That is for using the cube with ctl-alt-button1 and drag left/right.  This was a simple scroll wheel to empty desktop that caused the same effect as ctl-alt-left arrow or ctl-alt-right arrow
[06:01] <unixalot> echosystm: plug them in and go to the display panel
[06:01] <echosystm> its not that easy
[06:01] <r0b0tchicken> ok. it was locking up for seemingly no reason, at random times, i just disabled compiz yesterday, didn't even know i had it on, only had the wobbly windows enabled, but it has not locked up since then, next time it locks i will downgrade the driver, i couldn't even play 3d chess without hard-lock
[06:01] <Dr_Willis> echosystm:  with a nvidia card that has 3 conections it is...
[06:01] <timboy> unixalot, think it's video driver issue? should I try different video driver?
[06:01] <scottbot> Edit your Xorg.conf
[06:01] <unixalot> echosystm: my question to you is, do you really need 3 diplays?
[06:01] <echosystm> what nvidia card has 3 connections?
[06:02] <echosystm> yes
[06:02] <unixalot> timboy: What is your gfx card integrated??
[06:02] <catzz> Hello! Where to get emerald theme editor?
[06:02] <r0b0tchicken> my 6200 has 3, two monitor outs and a component/svideo out
[06:02] <catzz> what command?
[06:02] <catzz> sudo -apt get..
[06:02] <timboy> echosystm, ati cards have up to 4 outputs
[06:02] <r0b0tchicken> also, if you have an onboard vid out that one would work as well
[06:02] <Dr_Willis> Theres also usb vga out adaptors
[06:02] <joe75> echosystm: every nv card :P
[06:02] <echosystm> svideo isnt going to be very useful for a monitor
[06:02] <catzz> Hello! Where to get emerald theme editor?
[06:02] <timboy> unixalot, geforce 9600 i believe
[06:02] <Dr_Willis> my NV card onluy does 2 monitors  OR 1 monitor + tv out.
[06:02] <nyaa_> does brasero have a problem with burning iso's to regular cd's? it was fine doing a dvd image but the regular cd just hangs
[06:02] <r0b0tchicken> echosystm works well for a 52' tv tho :)
[06:03] <Dr_Willis> catzz:  its built into the emerald theme selection tool.
[06:03] <r0b0tchicken> BIG X desktop :P
[06:03] <catzz> ? :)
[06:03] <joe75> z0mg, dont waste that tv on svid plz
[06:03] <chelz> timboy: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1354205
[06:03] <catzz> well where is it?
[06:03] <echosystm> low res and useles
[06:03] <catzz> how to install it?
[06:03] <unixalot> nyaa_: depends how big the iso is really??
[06:03] <Dr_Willis> catzz:  where you select themes for emerald..  in the icons/menus somewhere.
[06:03] <catzz> i have no!
[06:03] <echosystm> anyway
[06:03] <r0b0tchicken> joe75 hehe, i use component out actually, but didnt wanna get into all that lol
[06:03] <chelz> nyaa_: it should work if the iso is good
[06:03] <catzz> maybe some command in terminal?
[06:03] <nyaa_> unixalot it's 600 megs or so, it just hangs at "preparing to write"
[06:03] <Dr_Willis> catzz:  check package manager or icons again.
[06:04] <chelz> !emerald | catzz
[06:04] <Dr_Willis> catzz:  install/use Fusion-icon tool also. it makes things easier
[06:04] <bazhang> catzz, emerald is no longer supported nor developed
[06:04] <catzz> can i download it?
[06:04] <Dr_Willis> the same tool you use to install emerald themes - is the tool you can use to make new themes
[06:04] <unixalot> nyaa_: you said brasero rite?
[06:04] <hookworm24> just downloaded an application, when i open it i get an error message saying there is no application installed for executable files. what program do i need to make this work?
[06:04] <archboxman> edomeda: figured out how to put it back
[06:04] <nyaa_> unixalot yup
[06:04] <catzz> ok how to install Fusion?
[06:05] <Dr_Willis> catzz:  learn to use teh package manager.. search for 'fusion-icon' install it
[06:05] <drhe|skt> how do you change the universal time zone in ubuntu in command prompt?
[06:05] <nyaa_> unixalot I don't know how else to do an image to install ubuntu on the other pc
[06:05] <Dr_Willis> catzz:  then run it
[06:05] <unixalot> nyaa_: it shouldnt have a problem burning iso's to a disc
[06:05] <archboxman> edomeda: easy solution
[06:05] <edomeda> archboxman, you did?  I've been searching for hours now. :)
[06:05] <unixalot> nyaa_: make sure the burn speed is set low?
[06:05] <archboxman> edomeda: I don't search I play :)
[06:05] <unixalot> nyaa_: hopefully its a clean disc
[06:05] <echosystm> xrandr only supports single gpu, ati dont have eyefinity for linux yet, and im pretty sure there arent any nivida cards with 2xDVI + 1xHDMI
[06:06] <drhe|skt> oh never mind. im sure you are not supposed to change universal time zone time.
[06:06] <DrManhattan> I wish I could run all 3 video sources at one on nvidia
[06:06] <timboy> echosystm, what is eyefinity?
[06:06] <DrManhattan> thats a real bummer
[06:06] <archboxman> edomeda: first off you want to use the scroll well and ctl+alt correct to rotate the screen around left and right?? yes/no
[06:06] <archboxman> well=whell
[06:06] <archboxman> well=wheel
[06:06] <echosystm> google it timboy
[06:07] <echosystm> so, basically is it correct to say that if you want 3 monitors on linux, you have to use xinerama?
[06:07] <edomeda> archboxman, I just want the old method of switch viewports, using the scroll wheel on any empty desktop space.  Rotate cube works but I don't want it to rotate the cube if I'm trying scroll a webpage in firefox for example.
[06:07] <timboy> echosystm, have to wait another 3 minutes until flash is installed before my gay browser will start working again...
[06:07] <chelz> drhe|skt: man date
[06:07] <archboxman> edomeda: ok got u
[06:08] <Dr_Willis> echosystm:  or twinview if you want a wide desktoo
[06:08] <rosco> i need help getting DSL on an old laptop.  i booted DSL form a bootfloppy and redirected to a usb flash drive ... it is asking for KNopppix.  but i have xp.  aaand, i'll have to put knoppix in c:/.  goal:  XP off machine and xubuntu running next week
[06:08] <Bravewolf> I've put some new latex packages in ~/texmf. The problem is that the latex compiler doesn't see them. What have I to do? thanks
[06:08] <echosystm> Dr_Willis, read my last comment - i cant find any nvidia cards that have 3 outputs
[06:08] <chelz> timboy: interesting slur choice for a mac user
[06:08] <unixalot> nyaa_: how long has it been doing this like, everytime, possibly is the iso?? have check the hash
[06:09] <Dr_Willis> echosystm:  check the hardware/catalogs.. several peole in here said they had them.
[06:09] <timboy> not a mac user. per say.. I use linux on an apple laptop
[06:09] <Josh901> I made another user on my account log in to it and tried using sudo nautilus of course it would let me. But it said that someone will be notified just wondering how do I get notified
[06:09] <nyaa_> unixalot every time I try, even if the iso is somehow downloaded wrong, it should still try to burn it to the disk right?
[06:09] <timboy> not my fault if no pc manufacturer has hardware this nice...
[06:09] <unixalot> nyaa_: yeah it should burn anything that is formated as .iso
[06:09] <echosystm> Dr_Willis: several people had no idea what they were talking about :P
[06:09] <neex> can anyone help me discover why my linux machine is doing 50-100 dns requests a second?
[06:09] <archboxman> edomeda: ccsm > rotate cube> bindings > rotate cube ... Now select Rotate left with window and click Disable select ctrl+alt+ press the scroll wheel set it and give it a try worked for me....
[06:09] <courpse> Getting: 'Error re-scanning registry , child terminated by signal' errors when running some applications.
[06:10] <courpse> Any idea on how to fix this?
[06:10] <nyaa_> unixalot then it's some issue with my burner or brasero or something, heh.
[06:10] <echosystm> timboy, using linux on a macbook is a bad idea
[06:10] <timboy> lol ok echosystm
[06:10] <scunizi> courpse: you must be on windows.. there.s no "registry" in linux perse
[06:11] <proxy332619> hack bank site
[06:11] <courpse> scunizi, I'm well aware on on ubuntu thanks...
[06:11] <unixalot> nyaa_: yeah it could have problems with your burner,, kinda weird tho
[06:11] <timboy> echosystm, sucks for me because I don't own mac os nor will I ever
[06:11] <unixalot> does it recognize a disc when you put it in nyaa_
[06:11] <echosystm> well, just for your information, running linux on a macbook can kill it
[06:11] <joe75> lol
[06:11] <unixalot> who buys a macbook?
[06:11] <joe75> how so?
[06:11] <nyaa_> unixalot yeah it recognizes that it's a blank disc
[06:11] <chelz> neex: monitor netstat and see what's doing it
[06:12] <chelz> scunizi: there is the gnome registry thing
[06:12] <archboxman> edomeda: I personelly dont like that it gets my window stuck... not a good feature for me... :(
[06:12] <proxy332619> can any one help me to hack bank site
[06:12] <joe75> same as any other laptop, echosystm
[06:12] <Flannel> proxy332619: No
[06:12] <unixalot> nyaa_: I would recomend synaptic and installing k3b, its for kde but see if it burns at least
[06:12] <echosystm> no its not joe75
[06:12] <gtr> Hello . How do i give all users access to xchat ?
[06:12] <courpse> chelz, So you think reinstalling gnome might be a go?
[06:12] <joe75> sure it is
[06:12] <echosystm> if you know anything about macs, you would know theyre not
[06:12] <scunizi> chelz: sort of.. it's not a registry in the windows sense.
[06:12] <zetheroo> unixalot: who buys a macbook? what kinda Q is that?
[06:12] <echosystm> they dont even have smbus
[06:12] <proxy332619> y?

[06:12] <nyaa_> unixalot ok, thanks =)
[06:12] <gtr> from shell
[06:12] <chelz> courpse: no wait
[06:12] <joe75> ok
[06:12] <timboy> echosystm, linux can kill any system. Had a t61 that it killed wireless broadcom card on...
[06:12] <echosystm> its not standard pc hardware, go ask in #apple
[06:12] <chelz> courpse: sudo apt-get remove frei0r-plugins
[06:12] <unixalot> zetheroo: who spends 2 grand for a laptop with shitty hardware
[06:13] <joe75> im on osx right now
[06:13] <edomeda> archboxman, not it.  That still rotates the cube even if I'm not on an empty desktop space.  So if you try that inside firefox, it'd rotate your cube.
[06:13] <chelz> courpse: that might fix it
[06:13] <Flannel> proxy332619: Because that's offtopic, stupid, *and* illegal.  Go away.
[06:13] <sivam> Hi, I changed my layout from UK to US. now it is getting back to UK often

[06:13] <unixalot> zetheroo: hardware that costs nowhere near 2 grand
[06:13] <rosco> anyone:  i need help getting DSL on an old laptop.  i booted DSL form a bootfloppy and it is in some way running off a usb flash drive w/ DSL files ... it is asking for KNopppix and says without it i'm stuck with really small kernel.  ONe -i have xp.  aaand, i'll have to put knoppix in c:/.  i want M$  off machine
[06:13] <philien> Hi I want to translate ubuntu's flayers but where can I download the PDF format ?
[06:13] <echosystm> joe75 obviously you dont, or you would have known this
[06:13] <courpse> chelz, Not installed apprently.
[06:13] <sivam> i, I changed my layout from UK to US. now it is getting back to UK often
[06:13] <m3phist0> have you tried using hackintosh
[06:14] <chelz> rosco: if you want DSL then go to their IRC channel. this channel if for ubuntu
[06:14] <proxy332619> where from,u?
[06:14] <Dr_Willis> Rockj:  try the DSL forums/homepage/channel?
[06:14] <unixalot> m3phist0: I have,
[06:14] <archboxman> edomeda: I know had to go to the menu bar and press the key combanation to work
[06:14] <echosystm> linux has no support for SMC joe75
[06:14] <zetheroo> unixalot: agreed ... Apple over-charge ... but their hardware is not "sh*ty" ... and the OS is no where near as bad as Winowz
[06:14] <edomeda> archboxman, example: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=63152
[06:14] <philien> Hi I want to translate ubuntu's flayers but where can I download the PDF format ?
[06:14] <zetheroo> unixalot: when was the last time you had a Macbook?
[06:14] <unixalot> Lol.. zetheroo the hardware is by far not 'good'
[06:14] <Dr_Willis> ubuntu flayers ?
[06:14] <rosco> chelz: there is no channel for dsl.  knoppix guys are very inactive.  waiting & waiting for response
[06:14] <yumte> i'm so frustated.....
[06:14] <proxy332619> any one using backtrack
[06:14] <chelz> courpse: sudo apt-get remove libvisual-0.4-plugins
[06:14] <rosco> me tto
[06:14] <Dr_Willis> DSl does have a homepage/forum last i checked ates ago
[06:14] <zetheroo> unixalot: your generalising and that is of no use to anyone
[06:15] <unixalot> zetheroo: I would never buy a macbook.. maybe when the new ones come out
[06:15] <scunizi> rosco: try in #kde
[06:15] <Dr_Willis> !backtrack | proxy332619
[06:15] <Phosis> I don't mean to intrude, but everytime I have had a Mac, it has run into enormous difficulties which were all but unfixable.
[06:15] <vivekrp__> Hello People!
[06:15] <zetheroo> unixalot: "new ones"?
[06:15] <rosco> scunizi: thanks. will right now!
[06:15] <echosystm> zetheroo, OSX actually has far worse security than windows, its just that no one uses it so no one bothers to write viruses for it
[06:15] <rick_> i used to be able to play avi files flawlessly on my laptop but once i installed and uninstall openshot for some reason the audio is choppy now.  any ideas anyone?
[06:15] <Flannel> philien: Which flyers?
[06:15] <unixalot> zetheroo: why would you buy a mac when you can buy a laptop with a 260m in it for less
[06:15] <ouyes> unixalot, why never, it is good but not well supported by ubuntu
[06:15] <zetheroo> echosystm: where did you get that information from?
[06:15] <chelz> rosco: you could try (x)ubuntu. or puppy linux.
[06:15] <joe75> you are carzy, echosystm
[06:15] <courpse> chelz, Aight, it removed, but my problem still stays.
[06:16] <chelz> rick_: have you tried reinstalling openshot?
[06:16] <echosystm> google the hack2pwn competitions zetheroo, osx is consistently the first to get hacked
[06:16] <proxy332619> im using bt4 its amzg
[06:16] <archboxman> edomeda: take of the crt+alt and just leave the mouse botton #2
[06:16] <m3phist0> unixalot: how did it work, i want to install it on a separete partiton but i'm not sure it will dualboot with ubuntu
[06:16] <zetheroo> unixalot: that is not really the point... you are generalising about their hardware being crap ...
[06:16] <unixalot> ouyes: I'd rather buy a sweet acer notebook or a sager if you ask me, 10x better hardware and just as expensive
[06:16] <echosystm> most mac users dont know these things though, because they are blind fanboys
[06:16] <Josh901> I made another user on my account log in to it and tried using sudo nautilus of course it would let me. But it said that someone will be notified just wondering how do I get notified

[06:16] <Flannel> echosystm, zetheroo: please take it to #ubuntu-offtopic, thanks.
[06:16] <unixalot> zetheroo: Go look at the specs of a macbook pro and tell me its actually worth 2g
[06:16] <Dr_Willis> Josh901:  the root user gets email,.
[06:16] <unixalot> zetheroo: its not..
[06:16] <Dr_Willis> Josh901:  just a feature taht may or may not actually be enabled
[06:16] <zetheroo> echosystm: the MacOS was based off of FreeBSD so it cannot be terrible security
[06:17] <gtr> from the shell how may i give all users access to xchat ?
[06:17] <zetheroo> Flannel: sure
[06:17] <rick_> chelz i don't want openshot, it's actually a video editor and it never ran correctly anyways.  somehow it messed up my ability to playback avi files audio in vlc
[06:17] <proxy332619> any idea about dth hacking
[06:17] <Dr_Willis> gtr:  they should allready be able to run  the xchat program if its installed by default
[06:17] <proxy332619> ?
[06:17] <zetheroo> unixalot: join me in off-topic
[06:17] <edomeda> archboxman, ah, I just found it.  It's under Viewport Switcher > Desktop-based Viewport Switch (Move Next / Move Prev)

[06:17] <Flannel> scunizi: Howdy Howdy
[06:18] <Dr_Willis> Josh901:  no idea.  check the sudo docs/guides perhaps.
[06:18] <proxy332619> tell me any thing intresting
[06:18] <unixalot> ouyes: I dont understand
[06:18] <Dr_Willis> Josh901:  or try 'sudo mail' and see if root has any mail
[06:18] <Josh901> Dr_Willis: Thanks
[06:18] <zetheroo> echosystm: please stay up to date on the conversation before repeating what others have said

[06:18] <ouyes> unixalot, i mean the energy exhaust
[06:18] <Ace> IF ANYBODY CAN HELP ME... IS AUTO REMOVE THE WAY TO GO TO CLEAN OUT TRASH IN UBUNTU
[06:18] <proxy332619> dth direct to  home
[06:18] <gtr> dr willis , i learned how to only  give the admin account access , but i would like to reverse it and give them both  access.
[06:18] <Dr_Willis> Ace:  that will remove some not needed files.. depends on what your 'trash' is.
[06:18] <Flannel> Ace: No, autoremove isn't how to clean the trash.
[06:18] <unixalot> ouyes: ??
[06:18] <Flannel> !trash | Ace

[06:19] <unixalot> If you get a mobile gfx card like a 260m your comp wont get that hot
[06:19] <Dr_Willis> gtr:  No idea what you did.. or why you would bother.
[06:19] <archboxman> edomeda: still dont work when you get over a maximezed window useless function if you ask me :(
[06:19] <proxy332619> any girls?
[06:19] <philien> Dr-Willis: It's not flyers but brochures
[06:19] <Josh901> chelz:  cheers will have a look.
[06:19] <edomeda> archboxman, nah, you can use it in combo with the other rotate cube.
[06:19] <ouyes> unixalot, we are offtopic, heat yield mate......
[06:19] <Dr_Willis> gtr:  You could remove/purge/reinstall xchat i guess as a quick way to get it back to the defaults
[06:20] <edomeda> archboxman, anyway, got it working.  =)  I use it a lot
[06:20] <mystica555> hello, i just moved my hard drive from one laptop to another.. the first had nvidia, this other has intel gma 4500. ubuntu boots up, ive got the intel drivers loading, but I can't get glx.. is there some way to switch between the 2 without uninstalling and reinstalling every time I need to do this?
[06:20] <unixalot> ouyes: join in offtopic
[06:20] <philien> Dr_Willis: It's not flyers but brochures
[06:20] <mystica555> *uninstalling and reinstalling the video drivers that is
[06:20] <zetheroo> unixalot: where are you?
[06:21] <root_> fuck
[06:21] <Ace> thank you for all your input... Well i use to have old repositories that now got rid of... what is the command for autoremove
[06:21] <archboxman> edomeda: they also just use buttons 4, buttons 5 and buttons 2 cause that effect
[06:21] <chelz> mystica555: that's a very uncommon usecase
[06:21] <gtr> dr willis : its just a learning process for me .
[06:21] <chelz> !hi | root_
[06:21] <courpse> chelz, No difference.
[06:21] <Guest1436> u flannel bitch
[06:21] <Flannel> philien: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DIYMarketing#Leaflets might be what you're looking for
[06:21] <Ace> .
[06:21] <Flannel> Guest1436: Please stay on topic and watch your language, thanks.
[06:21] <mystica555> chelz, is there some sort of quick way or is it literally apt-get uninstall the nvidia ones, and install the mesa ones?  gentoo (my primary linux on my desktop) has eselect opengl...
[06:21] <archboxman> edomeda: I going to turn off that feature sorry like tab windows better
[06:22] <Guest1436> who r u to say that?
[06:22] <chelz> mystica555: you could try that on ubuntu
[06:22] <philien> Flannel: Thanks it's this
[06:22] <Guest1436> bitch
[06:22] <chelz> !offtopic Guest1436
[06:22] <mystica555> try what particularly?
[06:22] <chelz> mystica555: the thing you do on gentoo
[06:22] <mystica555> eselect is a gentoo script that changes a number of different systems
[06:22] <unixalot> sup
[06:23] <mystica555> ubuntu doesn't have it :\
[06:23] <chelz> courpse: i've seen that same issue earlier today but the person never responded after i told them about the libvisual-0.4-plugins thing
[06:23]  * unixalot will brb
[06:23] <courpse> :/
[06:23] <bazhang> mystica555, use the package manager synaptic or apt-get / aptitude
[06:23] <obiwan_> guys i'm trying to do something like this to remove the first two words of a list of files with those words in their name. mv $(ls -1) $(ls -1 | sed 's/\(The\ Words\)\(.*\)/\2/') but it doesn't work. I want to do my own script exactly with thiose kind of commands, could anybody help me out? thanks :)
[06:24] <mystica555> bazhang, but is it literally uninstall the packages and install the others?
[06:24] <mystica555> or can they both exist at the same point, but somehow the symlinks be managed by a utility?
[06:24] <bazhang> mystica555, certainly is
[06:24] <mystica555> (to the opengl module)
[06:24] <maco> obiwan_: have you heard about the "rename" command?
[06:24] <chelz> courpse: try purging gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad
[06:25] <unixalot> obiwan_: i got a easy solution for you
[06:25] <mystica555> i was under the impression that ubuntu was "automagic" to the point where it would notice that the video drivers changed, and then have the opengl modules change too..
[06:25] <obiwan_> yeah maco, but i said i want to use my own script
[06:25] <courpse> chelz, Cant find package.
[06:25] <maco> obiwan_: you could make it a very short script ;)
[06:25] <mystica555> or at least, install the new intel driver, and it would realize that the mesa-glx needed to be switched to vs the nvidia-glx
[06:25] <unixalot> obiwan_: synaptic, look up a program called bulk rename, uses search and replace, its a gui
[06:25] <obiwan_> so using a program/command is not in my plans :P
[06:26] <bazhang> mystica555, some human interaction is needed via the package manager
[06:26] <archboxman> courpse: apt-cache search file name
[06:26] <chelz> courpse: search for "gstreamer bad" in synaptic
[06:26] <obiwan_> but unixalot i want to use the commands i'm currently using
[06:26] <obiwan_> just add some changes to make it work, and possibly another commands like xargs and stuff
[06:26] <unixalot> obiwan_: up to you mang, bulk rename is amazing.. works wonders
[06:27] <obiwan_> actually i got a renaming program installed right now, mass renamer
[06:27] <courpse> No *-bad package.
[06:27] <obiwan_> but i just want to do a simple script by myself :)
[06:27] <chelz> Josh90: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sudo#Design
[06:27] <mystica555> bazhang, seems to be a limitation in my opinion
[06:27] <chelz> obiwan_: #bash
[06:27] <archboxman> courpse: search partial name not the full name
[06:27] <edomeda> sounds like obiwan_ is doing a homework assignment
[06:28] <obiwan_> haha thankz chelz i dunno why but i always end up there xDDD ok seeya later thanks u and thanks unixalot and thanks maco
[06:28] <archboxman> courpse: what program uses this packages wasn't reading along
[06:28] <courpse> i searched 'gstreamer bad', and there was n *-bad packages selected/installed.
[06:28] <courpse> Um, sorry?
[06:28] <archboxman> courpse: hold on
[06:28] <chelz> courpse: ah alright
[06:29] <nat2610_> what package should I install to have the man pages for development ... (like man malloc)
[06:29] <fornix> anyone uses ipod nano 5g with gtkpod? nothing shows on my ipod after adding files!
[06:29] <chelz> courpse: you sure frei0r-plugins is gone?
[06:30] <courpse> Yep, its no longer installed.
[06:30] <Ace> GOT A NEW ROOM CALLED #Bobbysworld JOIN ME FOR FUN CONVERSATION IF YOU LIKE TAKE CARE ALL
[06:30] <courpse> Was never installed according to apt.
[06:30] <scunizi> bye bye Ace
[06:30] <chelz> courpse: run a program that crashes in the terminal and pastebin the output plz
[06:30] <chelz> !pastebin | courpse
[06:30] <Baloo1> hello
[06:30] <thechris> Does anyone know how to get fdisk /mbr to work from linux?
[06:30] <chelz> !hi | Baloo1
[06:31] <chelz> thechris: linux does things differently. try "fdisk -l"
[06:31] <tucemiux> thechris, fdisk is only for windows partitions, what is the real question/problem
[06:31] <courpse> chelz,  http://paste.ubuntu.com/370010/
[06:31] <archboxman> courpse: this is all the packages I find on gstreamer... http://pastebin.com/m3e37186a
[06:31] <thechris> tucemiux: windows itself won't boot.
[06:31] <tucemiux> thechris, that one didnt sound all correctly LoL
[06:32] <Baloo1> does anyone have ps3 ubuntu experience
[06:32] <archboxman> courpse: your not root
[06:32] <tucemiux> thechris, ok so what is the problem
[06:32] <courpse> I know im not root...
[06:32] <thechris> tucemiux: the solution listed for windows is to run fdisk /mbr to fix this issue
[06:32] <courpse> Why would i run a audio program as root?
[06:32] <tucemiux> thechris, ok and?
[06:32] <thechris> tucemiux: windows does not boot, but hangs before the splash screen
[06:32] <chelz> courpse: sudo rm /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstfrei0r.so
[06:33] <chelz> thechris: what happened before windows started not being able to boot?
[06:33] <courpse> chelz, No such file or directory.
[06:33] <tucemiux> thechris, what does this have to do with ubuntu?
[06:33] <archboxman> courpse: editing your file system a user can't do that...
[06:33] <thechris> tucemiux: chelz i installed linux
[06:33] <fornix> thechris, i think u want to fix the boot sector. if you run fdisk /mbr from recovery console, grub would be overwritten @ mbr.
[06:33] <archboxman> courpse: su or sudo
[06:33] <courpse> archboxman, To do what? run audio app?
[06:34] <chelz> thechris: so you select windows from grub, then what happens?
[06:34] <Baloo1> im having a problem with my windows
[06:34] <archboxman> reinstall the audio app
[06:34] <tucemiux> thechris, so basically you have a dual boot set up then?
[06:34] <booksbuggy> can someone give me a list of what files are suppose to be in etc/modprobe.d?
[06:34] <chelz> courpse: eh, well try installing frei0r-plugins then removing it completely / purging it
[06:34] <thechris> fornix: its easier to get grub to work than windows's bootloader
[06:34] <thechris> tucemiux: well, almost a dual boot.  linux or hang at the moment...
[06:34] <archboxman> courpse: what file are you trying to use???
[06:34] <chelz> booksbuggy: you can boot a livecd and get a list that way
[06:35] <ian_> hello all.  so...i've searched quite a bit but can find no solution for why flash (games in particular) runs so slowly on ubuntu.
[06:35] <fornix> thechris, how did u mess up windows partition boot sector? or are u sure ur windows partition boot sector is corrupted?
[06:35] <booksbuggy> okey dokey then nevermind :CP
[06:35] <Baloo1> they are to big and wont scale down to a manageable size
[06:35] <thechris> chelz: the screen displays a blinking _.  it does not boot
[06:35] <chelz> archboxman: he's getting a "Error re-scanning registry , child terminated by signal" error. which i've tracked to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/opencv/+bug/459940
[06:35] <archboxman> purge and reinstall
[06:35] <booksbuggy> i think my accidental upgrade to ubuntu 9.10 caused the files in modprobe.d to be distributed to different places :CP
[06:35] <thechris> fornix: this is from googling "windows won't boot" or something similar
[06:35] <tucemiux> thechris, can you just describe what your installations please, not suppositions here
[06:35] <chelz> ian_: flash has issues sometimes
[06:36] <ekim> Is it possible to use a zune with Ubuntu?  If so, what app do I use?
[06:36] <booksbuggy> now sound doesn't work
[06:36] <chelz> booksbuggy: make sure you have the latest updates installed. ubuntu should be able to fix itself
[06:36] <fornix> thechris, u probably only need to make some changes in grub config
[06:36] <tucemiux> ekim, a zune is like an ipod?
[06:36] <Josh901> adding a user to the /ect/sudoers
[06:36] <booksbuggy> chelz, i tried updating everything
[06:36] <Killa1> Quick question: Will moving my Windows partition (Moving within the same disk - Just so I can combine empty space) cause it to be unbootable or otherwise damaged?
[06:36] <ekim> to sync/add/remove songs.
[06:36] <knoppix> hi
[06:36] <thechris> tucemiux: i have a working 9.10 ubuntu install.  there is a freebsd partition that isn't used or listed.  winxp is listed, but will not boot
[06:36] <ian_> chelz, seems to be the case.  flash works fine on my windows partition (dual boot).  but gets very laggy on ubuntu.  turning off hardware accel helps a little but only for a moment
[06:36] <chelz> ekim: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=492816
[06:36] <ekim> tucemiux, yes, but it is a Microsoft thing.
[06:36] <booksbuggy> chelz, except autoremoving the files they are telling me to delete
[06:36] <nyaa_> omg omg I figured it out
[06:37] <Josh901> v
[06:37] <tucemiux> ekim, try amarok
[06:37] <thechris> fornix: i've already tried the update-grub/2
[06:37] <nyaa_> it had the old dvd that I burned before that also mounted, I had to unmount that so it could burn the cd
[06:37] <archboxman> thechris: you still working with that grub2 editor???
[06:37]  * fornix never understood grub2, and still uses old grub :P
[06:37] <chelz> thechris: you're sure the windows is listed properly in grub.cfg?
[06:37] <thechris> archboxman: well, i tried to find a winxp mbr, and that didn't work.  the ubuntu cd takes a very long time to boot...
[06:38] <tucemiux> thechris, ok here goes the same question again, this time from me, apparently grub boots up fine, then you select windows, what happens after you select windows?
[06:38] <ekim> chelz, thanks for the link.
[06:38] <booksbuggy> thechris, sometimes the thing might be just one character difference
[06:38] <ekim> tucemiux, I will check amarok out...thanks,
[06:38] <thechris> tucemiux: essentially nothing.  the screen goes black except for the "_"
[06:38] <Baloo1> do ne 1 know wat im talking about
[06:38] <nat2610_> what package should I install to have the man pages for development ... (like man malloc)
[06:38] <Josh901> adding a user to the /ect/sudoers
[06:38] <tucemiux> thechris, did you configuration work at some point?
[06:38] <Flannel> Josh901: Easier to just add them to the 'admin' group
[06:38] <thechris> chelz: grub.cfg is autogenerated but update-grub/2
[06:39] <Baloo1> or not......
[06:39] <thechris> tucemiux: previously, win32 worked.  eventually I installed other OS's.
[06:39] <archboxman> thechris: curious to now if that bsd is conflicting with grub2... seems weird it wont recongize the partition
[06:40] <thechris> archboxman: well, I'm just not sure if grub2 knows what to do with it.
[06:40] <tucemiux> thechris, if you need help please stop withhold information, my question is if your configuration worked at some point, meaning if what you have right now used to work at some point
[06:40] <thechris> tucemiux: windows worked at some point
[06:41] <tucemiux> thechris, better yet---describe what you used to have when your configuration worked
[06:41] <thechris> tucemiux: after installing ubuntu, it didn't boot
[06:41] <Josh901> Flannel:  In the permisson's
[06:41] <thechris> tucemiux: i think it worked with gentoo.  gentoo no longer exists though
[06:41] <chelz> thechris: verify the grub.cfg yourself, or you could pastebin it
[06:41] <Flannel> Josh901: Users and groups, yeah.  Or you can just do this: `sudo adduser username admin` (where username is the user you want to give sudo access to)
[06:42] <ekim> chelz, that link didnt say if anyone got it working, only others have the same issue.
[06:42] <tucemiux> thechris,  did it work with bsd?
[06:42] <thechris> chelz: it seems pretty basic.  it does the root - map - chainload.
[06:42] <Josh901> Flannel:   Thanks heaps.
[06:42] <Killa1> Anyone here familiar with Gparted or similar? More in relation to working with (working) Windows partitions?
[06:42] <thechris> tucemiux: nothing works with bsd
[06:42] <tucemiux> troll alert
[06:42] <chelz> ekim: people seem to be using virtualbox to work with zunes
[06:43] <archboxman> thechris: read this on grub2 and bsd http://forums.pcbsd.org/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=14668&start=0
[06:43] <thechris> tucemiux: i essentially used BSD for all of 5 minutes because it didn't have networking support
[06:43] <chelz> !ask | Killa1
[06:43] <tucemiux> ekim, amarok didnt work?  try rhythmbox
[06:43] <thechris> archboxman: i guess thanks.  but until freebsd supports my NIC, i really don't ever use it.
[06:44] <Killa1> Alright - I'm curious as to if trying to move my working Windows partition will damage it in some way (Moving within the same disk)
[06:44] <Phosis> Does anyone know of any good HTTP video streams for music videos that I can use with Mplayer, or is most of this web based now?
[06:44] <chelz> thechris: pastebin "fdisk -l" output and your grub.cfg
[06:44] <tucemiux> Killa1, dont move your windows partition
[06:44] <helpme> im running an nvidia geforce 210, and 2 seperate LCDs are flashing black for several seconds on occasion in both the VGA and DVI port, while my CRT does not flash at all in either port, can someone help me get rid of the flashing on the LCDs???
[06:44] <dax2112rush> Hi, I need to fsck a raid (root)partition. May I just boot with a live cd and fsck one of the 2 partitions, or will that mess everything up?
[06:44] <courpse> chelz, No change.
[06:44] <Killa1> Alright, thanks.
[06:45] <tucemiux> Killa1, what are you trying to do??
[06:45] <MHz128> hiya
[06:45] <chelz> courpse: do you have that issue with other programs besides rhythmbox?
[06:45] <MHz128> what is the gui app for mounting iso's with kde? or gnome...
[06:45] <Phosis> Does anyone use HTTP video streams through Mplayer, or is it all web based now?
[06:45] <tucemiux> !hello| MHz128
[06:45] <chelz> helpme: do you have drivers installed?
[06:45] <courpse> yeah. movie player too.
[06:45] <archboxman> thechris: there go ran into the same problem, it took some fiddling with the new grub configuration files (in /etc/grub.d/ now instead of menu.lst). I have PCBSD installed in a second drive in my system. Following the pointers in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2, I created the file 50_pcbsd in the directory /etc/grub.d/ and ran update-grub. The contents of the file are:
[06:45] <chelz> courpse: does the output of it on the terminal say anything more?
[06:46] <courpse> chelz, Newp :/
[06:46] <helpme> chelz: yes i do. ive treid many different drivers, actually.
[06:46] <thechris> chelz: http://pastie.org/812145
[06:46] <courpse> ohh, vlc says 'Bus error'.
[06:46] <chelz> helpme: sounds like a driver issue. try the nvidia linux forums: http://www.google.com/search?q=nvidia+linux+forums
[06:46] <Phosis> Is video streaming all browser based, or can you still get HTTP streams through Mplayer?
[06:47] <thechris> archboxman: This seems to be in relation to the FBSD not being listed.  I most likely will never use that FBSD install ever again.  Right now, i'm trying to get windows to boot
[06:47] <helpme> chelz: even though the CRT works in both ports perfectly?
[06:47] <sddser> Hi since i upgraded to ubuntu 9.10 my sansa disk not recognize  i removed rhythmbox lsusb output: Bus 002 Device 003: ID 0781:7432 SanDisk Corp. Sansa Clip (mtp)  - (not recognize in /media)
[06:47] <sahal> i figured out the problem
[06:47] <Killa1> Tucemiux: I'm trying to combine free space that was made when I partitioned my disks incorrectly
[06:47] <sahal> scim is making gnome start slow
[06:48] <chelz> helpme: you could try searching the ubuntu wiki for nvidia troubleshooting info
[06:48] <helpme> chelz: ive actually been searching everywhere and asking in multiple irc chats since january 30th, but i can find no help :(
[06:49] <tucemiux> Killa1, yes, you can combine space, just back up your data just in case however remember that space needs to be next to each other in order
[06:49] <tucemiux> in order for you to combine it
[06:49] <sddser> ok problem solved moved to MSC mode, thanks
[06:49] <chelz> helpme: could try posting on the nvidia forums
[06:50] <helpme> chelz: ok
[06:50] <stevenfgsdfg> What is best? Iptables, ufw or firestarter?
[06:50] <Killa1> tucemiux: Yea, that's the problem: the space isn't continuous - There's a 60gig Windows partition in there I was hoping to move to the right or left, but last time I attempted to do something to a Windows partition
[06:50] <michaeldouglas30> Iptables
[06:50] <chelz> courpse: try installing songbird and seeing if it works. if it doesn't work, try pastebinning the output
[06:50] <Killa1> It went 'spode on me :[
[06:50] <maco> stevenfgsdfg: ufw and firestarter are just frontends to iptables
[06:50] <maco> stevenfgsdfg: firestarter is unmaintained, though
[06:50] <chelz> stevenfgsdfg: if all you need is IPv4, firestarter worked pretty well
[06:50] <stevenfgsdfg> I have ipv6 blacklisted
[06:50] <michaeldouglas30> ipcop running on a second box
[06:51] <maco> stevenfgsdfg: ufw is a command line wrapper for iptables. gufw is a gui one being recommended to replace firestarter due to aforementioned unmaintained status
[06:51] <Josh901> Is there a program where i can back up my whole os.
[06:51] <courpse> chelz, is song bird in the repos?
[06:51] <titan_ark> anything i can do to make my fonts look better and smoother in openoffice and okular?
[06:51] <chelz> MHz128: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/mount-and-unmount-isomdfnrg-images-using-acetoneiso-gui-tool.html
[06:51] <stevenfgsdfg> It irritates me that I will sudo ufw default deny, sudo ufw enable, and then when I run firestarter and type sudo ufw status it will say inactive.
[06:52] <MHz128> chelz, wicked! thank you
[06:52] <tucemiux> Josh901, you want to create an image of your hard drive, similar to window's ghost application, for ubuntu you can use partimage
[06:52] <chelz> titan_ark: System -> Preferences -> Appearance -> Fonts
[06:52] <tucemiux> Killa1, you know how to use paste bin?
[06:52] <stevenfgsdfg> Why does firestarter turn off my iptables?  ufw says inactive after I start it
[06:53] <thechris> so, this comes back to my original question -- is there a way to do a dos-style fdisk /mbr in linux?
[06:53] <Killa1> tucemiux: I used it a while ago, but it's been ages
[06:53] <titan_ark> chelz: okay i am there. what should i change/
[06:53] <Josh901> tucemiux: Thanks
[06:53] <maco> stevenfgsdfg: firestarter probably resets it to its default blacklist mode
[06:53] <tucemiux> !paste > Killa1
[06:53] <maco> stevenfgsdfg: you shouldnt mix firestarter and ufw though
[06:53] <maco> stevenfgsdfg: theyll be saving conflicting configs to different files and you wont know which will go into effect
[06:54] <tucemiux> Killa1, use paste bin to output the result of this command: "sudo fdisk -l"
[06:54] <maco> stevenfgsdfg: if you want a gui and command line way, ufw and gufw should work fine together
[06:54] <chelz> titan_ark: http://www.killertechtips.com/2008/04/10/how-to-turn-on-cleartype-in-ubuntu-linux/
[06:55] <Killa1> tucemiux: http://paste.ubuntu.com/370018/
[06:55] <titan_ark> chelz: cool thx a bunch. shall do that
[06:55] <chelz> thechris: fdisk mbr installs the NT bootloader, we use grub so
[06:56] <stevenfgsdfg> Do I have to do anything special to get it to save the configuration like iptables update or iptables restore or anything like that?
[06:56] <thechris> chelz: either grub doesn't work, or grub does work and the NT bootloader doesn't work.
[06:56] <ekim> I have rhythmbox opened but cant get zune music to load in the program.  what am I missing?
[06:56] <thechris> chelz: grub isn't hard to install from linux
[06:57] <chelz> thechris: you could try uninstalling grub 2 and installing the older grub
[06:57] <chelz> thechris: you could boot a windows install disc and do a 'repair install', then reinstall grub2
[06:58] <chelz> thechris: i'm pretty sure grub is wrong is that it has hd(0,1) while windows is on hd(0,0)
[06:59] <thechris> chelz: grub2 changed partitions to 1 indexed.
[06:59] <tucemiux> Killa1, you have windows 98?
[06:59] <thechris> chelz: I just don't want to have to search my house for my winxp cd.
[06:59] <courpse> chelz, Sorry, back.
[06:59] <Killa1> tucemiux: I have an old install disk around here somewhere, but it's not on the machine. It's a pre-SP1 disk install of Windows
[06:59] <courpse> Installing songbird now.
[07:00] <Killa1> XP that's on the machine now
[07:00] <chelz> stevenfgsdfg: i've been using vuurmuur
[07:00] <stevenfgsdfg> What is that?
[07:00] <stevenfgsdfg> !vuurmurr
[07:00] <chelz> stevenfgsdfg: it's easy. also i hear apf-firewall is good
[07:00] <chelz> stevenfgsdfg: learning iptables itself is a good thing though
[07:01] <chelz> thechris: well could try older grub then
[07:01] <stevenfgsdfg> Yeah, my friend just told me a real man uses iptables
[07:01] <stevenfgsdfg> grrr
[07:02] <stevenfgsdfg> I'm just going to go with ufw as a kind of bandaid I think until I learn iptables
[07:02] <courpse> Im getting this alot too, http://pastebin.com/m5abaceab when trying to apt-get install something.
[07:03] <tucemiux> Killa1, so you have an extended partition at the beginning of your hard drive that is not being used???
[07:04] <amigojapan> in this:sudo useradd hhhhhh -m --skel /var/www/basicframework/nonphpstuff/vncuserskel     howcome it doesnt change the ownership of the new directories made from the new skeleton to the new user hhhhhh?
[07:04] <chelz> courpse: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/opencv/+bug/459940
[07:04] <Killa1> tucemiux: Not that I know of. I have an extended partition that has an old Ubuntu partition I screwed up, then the Windows, then a 10gig (personal) share), then ~20gigs of free space I want to combine with my old Ubuntu parition.
[07:04] <archboxman> thechris: why did you use a custom example for the bootloader????
[07:04] <ACE> .
[07:05] <thechris> archboxman: i didn't.  thats what grub2 chooses
[07:05] <ekim> Rythmbox doesnt seem to like zune's wma music files.  How can i get them to play?
[07:05] <tucemiux> Killa1, install gparted so you can see what you have graphically, "sudo apt-get install gparted"
[07:05] <rosco> i need general guidance.  eventually, i will have xubuntu installed.  issues in doing that though.  do i want to initally dual boot, make sure linux is up and running.  then delete XP partition.  do i partition drive before installing linux?
[07:05] <chelz> courpse: settings > repositories > authentication > restore desault keys
[07:05] <Killa1> tucemiux: I already have it installed, would you like a screenshot? I even have it already up.
[07:05] <chelz> courpse: then sudo apt-get clean
[07:06] <tucemiux> Killa1, yes please
[07:06] <archboxman> thechris: found a article similar to your idea.... https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+question/92586
[07:06] <chelz> !wma | ekim
[07:07] <archboxman> thechris: this is a spot match for the way your grub.cfg file appears instead of just the makeactive??? why is this???
[07:07] <Killa1> tucemiux: http://imagebin.org/83599
[07:08] <thechris> archboxman: i've found ms-sys which used to be a ubuntu package.  seems it has some bugs
[07:08] <chelz> Killa1: are you using wubi?
[07:08] <archboxman> thechris: why is it every article I have read calls for makeactive and this setup and yours call for remove all of 30 os probe and goes into deleting files... also by deleting the os probe it now can't detect the drive...
[07:09] <Killa1> Chelz: No, I'm on a livecd atm.
[07:09] <Killa1> Chelz: 9.10, to be exact
[07:09] <chelz> Killa1: oh. just use gparted to move stuff around then
[07:09] <courpse> chelz, Ta.
[07:09] <chelz> courpse: ?
[07:09] <thechris> archboxman: i haven't seen the "makeactive" listed.
[07:09] <Killa1> Chelz: That won't screw up the Windows partition?
[07:09] <courpse> Thanks for the repo fix,.
[07:10] <chelz> Killa1: i know it won't if you're using grub, not sure about default windows. might need to do a fixmbr thing
[07:10] <courpse> I get syntax error when compiling the songbird from the offical site, i get cant fetch file from rep from getdeb insall.
[07:10] <chelz> courpse: make sure you install the latest updates and fix any issues apt is reporting
[07:10] <Killa1> Chelz: Ah, yes, I'm using grub. Thanks a lot for your help.
[07:11] <Pheonix> ugh
[07:11] <Killa1> tucemiux: Thanks for your help too.
[07:11] <chelz> courpse: http://www.getdeb.net/app/Songbird - what happens when you try form here?
[07:11] <archboxman> thechris: going on further I read in a linux mint article by editing you grub2 file which is not recommended for because you have a OS probe tool attached to grub2 which does a autosearch...
[07:11] <stevenfgsdfg> How do I run vuurmuur from command line? lol
[07:11] <tucemiux> Killa1, do you have a windows CD?  your installation is a cluster mess up, I would just reinstall, since you have more thane enough space, just create a backup of your windows partition if you dont have the windows CD
[07:11] <thechris> archboxman: i haven't edited my grub.cfg
[07:12] <thechris> archboxman: any other sequences i've tried were on the grub cli

[07:12] <courpse> chelz, http://pastebin.com/m4e3072dc
[07:13] <archboxman> are you sure this os probe is install???? there is no reason for drivemap unless you  have deleted os probe....
[07:13] <chelz> courpse: settings > repositories > authentication > restore default keys
[07:13] <courpse> I did that.
[07:13] <courpse> and sudo apt-get clean
[07:14] <chelz> courpse: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-75813.html
[07:14] <thechris> archboxman: os-prober is already the newest version.
[07:14] <archboxman> thechris: futher more that edited grub2 comes from a 40_custom install????
[07:15] <thechris> archboxman: there are no uncommented lines in that section.
[07:15] <archboxman> thechris: this is odd??? remove the line for drive map and makeactive
[07:18] <thechris> archboxman: right now i'm going to try to get windows to boot from its own bootloader.  I have a feeling it will fix itself and then I can put grub back on.
[07:18] <courpse> where are the repos stores?
[07:18] <courpse> stoded*
[07:18] <archboxman> thechris: This might have to do with that bsd version on the system
[07:18] <amigojapan> sorry to ask again, but noone answered, in this:sudo useradd hhhhhh -m --skel /var/www/basicframework/nonphpstuff/vncuserskel     howcome it doesnt change the ownership of the new directories made from the new skeleton to the new user hhhhhh, howcome the ownership is still root?
[07:19] <chelz> courpse: /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:19] <zmanning> there wouldnt happen to be a fix for the issue where flash doesnt respond to clicks?
[07:19] <archboxman> thechris: I would suggest over written that data if not in use...
[07:19] <thechris> archboxman: possibly.  i don't know what BSD does for dual-booting, but it might have affected things
[07:19] <ZykoticK9> zmanning, 64bit?
[07:19] <zmanning> ZykoticK9, bah. yes.
[07:20] <thechris> archboxman: right now i'm making an off-drive backup of the mbr.
[07:20] <ZykoticK9> zmanning, fix http://paste.ubuntu.com/370027/
[07:21] <chelz> thechris: if your cpu supports it you could just access windows through virt-manager and never boot to it
[07:21] <archboxman> thechris: goodluck seems that bsd is calling os-probe to drivemap a system weird ... need to find out the status of grub2 it said in most articles I read that grub2 was expermental
[07:21] <chelz> thechris: optionally, the latest vmware supports up to dx9 for any effects
[07:22] <thechris> archboxman: well, ubuntu is pretty big on needless breaking things.
[07:23] <archboxman> thechris: GRUB 2 is the next generation of GNU GRUB. GRUB 2 is a complete rewrite and is at a developmental phase
[07:23] <res> hey how do i install antivirus for firefoxs
[07:23] <some_dude> can someone help me understand how tinyproxy catches my outgoing web requests ?
[07:24] <thechris> archboxman: no argument here -- I'm not the one who made it the default for 9.10
[07:24] <archboxman> thechris: why did your ubuntu pick grub2
[07:24] <thechris> archboxman: its the default for new installs of 9.10, while updates do not switch at this time.
[07:25] <tucemiux> archboxman, thechris is trolling
[07:25] <archboxman> thechris: would go to 9.04 and upgrade to 9.10.... ubuntu is introducing a lot of new packages to include upstart and udev
[07:25] <chelz> thechris: switching to older grub is trivial. seriously. chill brah.
[07:25] <res> i want to secure firefoxs with a nod32 or norton, how do i do this or maybe linux anti virus
[07:25] <chelz> res: clam-av is the antivirus for linux
[07:25] <Yggdrasil> how can i make the password not required when my system sleeps ?
[07:26] <tucemiux> res, did you just say "norton"?!? for linux?
[07:26] <res> chelz: ok but how do i tell aptitude to scan packages for antivirus for example
[07:26] <chelz> Yggdrasil: that's a screensaver thing
[07:26] <zmanning> ZykoticK9, you sir, are a gentleman, and a scholar.  thanks for the snippet!
[07:26] <Yggdrasil> mhmm thanks.
[07:26] <thechris> tucemiux: no, its just something that always annoys me with ubuntu.  every new version has to change as many things as possible.  it makes any old documentation unreliable.
[07:26] <zmanning> ZykoticK9, looks like its working fine now
[07:26] <res> chelz: with clamav or norton in whine
[07:26] <tVfReAkS> hi, i'm on vista and would like to make my usb bootable or enable boot flags. is there an app for windows to do this?
[07:26] <ZykoticK9> zmanning, glad to help :)
[07:26] <chelz> res: custom script for clam-av of somekind
[07:26] <archboxman> tucemiux: I'm not bashing ubunut I understand its point, but I don't understand why they couldn't wait other release??? I love ubuntu ,but this makes it hard on all users :(
[07:26] <Yggdrasil> also if i set sleep on screen close and works but i cant get it to just sleep when on battery after 15 minutes idle
[07:27] <chelz> tVfReAkS: unetbootin
[07:27] <Yggdrasil> anyway thanks
[07:27] <tucemiux> res, the antivirus is for windows files, not linux packages
[07:27] <chelz> archboxman: it works for most users. we're still not sure the problem here is grub2
[07:27] <tVfReAkS> i tried it. i think i need to make the usb stick bootable or enable boot flags. i used gparted before. but have no way of doing this
[07:27] <tVfReAkS> thanks chelz
[07:28] <tucemiux> archboxman, i meant to say that thechris is trolling, not you
[07:28] <res> tucemiux: i run whine and i rather not run risks
[07:28] <tVfReAkS> i need to enable the boot flags or put a checkmark in it
[07:28] <res> tucemiux: so i want to check every file even if it claims to be linux.exe
[07:28] <theshadow> Today when I booted my laptop my wireless wasn't enabled I can't figure out why, the Broadcom STA driver is enabled and active, it detects the card but I can't figure out why I can't enable my wireless. Please, can anyone help?
[07:28] <archboxman> chelz: I agree ,but why no option at boot time to ask for grub or grub2 or to state upstart  or hal or udev
[07:28] <tucemiux> res, if you dont want to run risks then dont use wine and dont use windows, only ubuntu
[07:28] <res> tucemiux: i cant make norton do this in ubuntu 9.10, it doesnt do it when aptitude installs
[07:29] <res> tucemiux: i cant because of my job, i must use windows programs
[07:29] <roboboy> okay how can I permanently kill the X server so it doesn't restart so I can run Xorg -configure?
[07:29] <chelz> res: there's a linux version of avg. it's proprietary though
[07:29] <archboxman> roboboy: what I could edit it in terminal??? lol
[07:30] <chelz> roboboy: ctrl+alt+f1 a few times then login and do "sudo killall xorg"
[07:30] <roboboy> its not there :p
[07:30] <roboboy> kk thanks
[07:30] <tucemiux> res, youre not getting the point here, the antivirus is for windows, anything that runs on windows and that is meant for windows
[07:30] <ZykoticK9> roboboy, from a console (ctrl-alt-F1) "sudo services gdm stop"
[07:30] <chelz> that sounds better
[07:30] <res> tucemiux: which is why i run in on whine
[07:30] <cvd> ubuntu dont delete old kernels? now i have 3 different kernels updates, how can i remove the old kernel?
[07:30] <ZykoticK9> roboboy, sorry it's "service" not "services"
[07:31] <chelz> !wine | res
[07:31] <res> whats wrong with running norton on whine
[07:31] <tucemiux> res, this means that you dont have to worry on linux,  it's very difficult for linux to get infected by a virus meant for linux, it will be almost impossible for linux to be affected by a virus meant for windows
[07:31] <cvd> ?
[07:31] <archboxman> chelz: lol wine???
[07:31] <chelz> cvd: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1152270

[07:32] <k0d3g3ar> can anyone recommend a good scheduled disk image backup system for Ubuntu?
[07:32] <stevenfgsdfg> Wine is an EVIL program.  Back away slowly...

[07:33] <stevenfgsdfg> Can't hack a computer through Vbox??
[07:33] <k0d3g3ar> res:  Linux is far less a target.  I have about 40 servers I manage.  Never been infected on Linux.  But I have 2 Windows servers, and they are being attacked about 10 times a week
[07:34] <ventz> if i do apt-get dist-upgrade on ubuntu server, will it upgrade me from 8.04 to 8.10? (i don't want that, but there are packages which have been kept back)
[07:34] <chelz> cvd: computer-janitor
[07:34] <chelz> cvd: sudo apt-get install computer-janitor
[07:34] <archboxman> stevenfgsdfg: that is just like honeypost stops stupid hackers and records there actions :)
[07:34] <chelz> ventz: what do you want to upgrade to?
[07:35] <bazhang> ventz, no the dist-upgrade won't switch version
[07:35] <bazhang> !dist-upgrade
[07:35] <tucemiux> res, no system is 100%, you want a system to be perfect, that is not realistic, anything that connects to the internet is vulnerable
[07:35] <rosco> bazhang: yo
[07:35] <cvd> chelz,  nice
[07:36] <ventz> bazhang: what is hte difference between upgrade and dist-upgrade, and why do like 30% of the sites online claim that dist-upgrade will upgrade the actual OS version #?
[07:36] <ventz> (or is it, that on server this does not apply)
[07:36] <archboxman> !apt-get
[07:37] <archboxman> man apt-get in terminal
[07:37] <bazhang> ventz, did you see the ubottu comment directly below my first one?
[07:38] <archboxman> ventz: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pacman_Rosetta here you go read the section on apt-get...
[07:38] <ventz> thanks
[07:38] <blankthemuffin> res, anti-virus is not really required at all on linux.
[07:38] <courpse> chelz, Im thinking this might be worth reinstalling ubuntu, a few things are f00bar3d, :/
[07:38] <res> blankthemuffin: but if anti virus checked for kernel stuff then it wouldnt happen...
[07:38] <res> blankthemuffin: thats what im trying to do with norton 2004 trial version
[07:39] <ventz> archboxman: so it says that it can do distribution upgrades...
[07:39] <archboxman> ventz: yes, just good over all chart for you to read..
[07:39] <ventz> but how can you prevent it from running a distribution upgrade?
[07:40] <ventz> i just want to get the new kernel and the new dns binary
[07:40] <blankthemuffin> Uh res that's not going to work at all.
[07:40] <archboxman> ventz: if your think of updating to 9.10 I would wait there are becoming issues
[07:40] <k0d3g3ar> res:  what makes you think that the anti-virus programs are any good anyway?  I mean a good virus will have a day or so to go rogue before it is noticed by AV companies
[07:40] <tico> HELLO,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
[07:41] <ventz> archboxman: i am trying to avoid upgrading away from 8.04
[07:41] <res> k0d3g3ar: wait but that applies to anything, if theres an obscure exploit in the kernel then it takes time to identify and patch
[07:41] <res> k0d3g3ar: sometimes even 8 years
[07:41] <tico> some one know a programs such as radmin(RDM) to connect ubuntu and windows???
[07:41] <ventz> since a lot of the custom software I have is not officially supported under anything other than the LTS (8.04) server, and if i call support they will not support it
[07:41] <k0d3g3ar> res:  exactly.  My point is you don't want to use an OS that is a likely target for this stuff
[07:42] <blankthemuffin> res, this is because security is tighter through both technical and social means. Technical in that things are run as your user, reducing effect on the system, social in that typically one does not download third party software from un-trusted sources, it generally comes from the system packages which are secure. As for norton, it, and all windows anti-virus software is going to be completely worthless in linux.
[07:42] <sprung> Hi, I am trying to get ahead of the curve at work, I am looking for something to study SPECIFICALLY regarding crash analysis
[07:42] <k0d3g3ar> res:  and also you want an OS that was designed to protect the kernel by decent user level security accounts as standard
[07:43] <k0d3g3ar> res:  90% of all viruses are introduced by users - not by some random net exploit
[07:43] <archboxman> ventz: really like 8.10 and 9.04 support is a good thing , but how far your going with programing is what you need to ask yourself???
[07:43] <sprung> k0d3g3ar, that statistic is totally made up but sounds right
[07:43] <k0d3g3ar> spung:  and your point is?
[07:43] <tico>  some one know a programs such as radmin(RDM) to connect ubuntu and windows???
[07:43] <sprung> k0d3g3ar, 74.6% of statistics used on IRC are made up
[07:44] <k0d3g3ar> sprung:  I'd 100% agree with that
[07:44] <k0d3g3ar> sprung:  lol
[07:44] <perscitus> Anyone know a way around Firefox bug that opens "Launch Application" window when selecting Open containing folder

[07:44] <archboxman> sprung: I would say that statistic is about 90% right just the user making this virus lives in india, pakastain and remote places :)
[07:45] <sprung> i need to get better at this. i take too long figuring out what made the servers crash
[07:45] <k0d3g3ar> archboxman:  or russian mafia funded
[07:45] <sprung> there's some coworker competition
[07:45] <xTheGoat121x> Is there a way to start Firefox from the terminal, and have it spit error messages? I'm trying to debug a crash
[07:46] <Dr_Willis> xTheGoat121x:  firefox or, firefox --help
[07:46] <archboxman> k0d3g3ar: crash or systems and watch how we can't use paper an pencil... take the head off and the body goes nuts
[07:46] <marian> Hello, is this the proper channel to ask for technical help?
[07:46] <bazhang> !ot
[07:46] <bazhang> marian, yes
[07:46] <marian> Kewl.
[07:47] <sprung> marian, ask away
[07:47] <marian> I'm having a problem with GnomeBaker...
[07:47] <xTheGoat121x> Dr_Willis, well, when I just type firefox, it starts then immediately gives me another spot for entering another command. I'll try --help
[07:47] <k0d3g3ar> archboxman:  what amazes me is that the same AV companies in Russia (ie. Kaspersky) live in the same town where all the botnets are coming from.  Hmmmm......
[07:47] <perscitus> Anyone know a way around Firefox bug that opens "Launch Application" window when selecting Open containing folder
[07:47] <sprung> marian, try to keep it in as few lines as possible
[07:47] <Faithful> What is the "right" way to install nvidia drivers in Koala?
[07:47] <bazhang> k0d3g3ar, archboxman please continue this in #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:47] <sprung> marian, the whole pressing enter at every "breath" makes it hard to read what you are saying so keep it as compact as possible
[07:47] <chelz> !ot | k0d3g3ar
[07:47] <k0d3g3ar> ok ok
[07:48] <k0d3g3ar> so anyone have a recommendation for a good, schedulable disk image backup system for Ubuntu?
[07:48] <marian> It keeps telling me that it can't access my cd burner because it can't communicate with it exclusively. I have the log but it is pretty large. I can't unmount or eject the cdrom either.
[07:48] <bazhang> rsync or sbackup k0d3g3ar
[07:48] <perscitus> Anyone know a way around Firefox bug that opens "Launch Application" window when selecting Open containing folder
[07:49] <sprung> !pastebin
[07:49] <k0d3g3ar> bazhang:  but rsync doesn't do disk image level backups does it?
[07:49] <sprung> marian, use pastebin as shown above to show us the logs
[07:49] <marian> Will do
[07:50] <Dr_Willis> xTheGoat121x:  any errors would get printed to the terminal normally,
[07:50] <marian> http://paste.ubuntu.com/370042/
[07:50] <sprung> marian, ok, i'm looking.
[07:51] <marian> ty
[07:51] <xTheGoat121x> Dr_Willis, I got it figured out -- I already had an instance of Fx running, so I closed it and restarted from the terminal
[07:52] <blankthemuffin> also note res, that particular exploit never affected Ubuntu 8.04+ and still relies on the attacker getting the code to your system, which is where the security of using distro packages comes in.

[07:53] <Liquid-Silence> hi all
[07:53] <sprung> marian, Try sudo service hal stop
[07:53] <sprung> marian, then try it
[07:53] <gmendoza> sup Liquid-Silence
[07:53] <k0d3g3ar> chelz:  gracias
[07:53] <Liquid-Silence> what happend to the nautilussvn package?
[07:53] <chelz> marian: do you have any other applications open that work with the drive?
[07:54] <sprung> chelz, yes, she probably does that's what this is going to prove
[07:54] <ventz> I am still confused about this. Everything claims that dist-upgrade actually *upgrades* distributions...
[07:54] <ventz> can someone please clear this up for me
[07:54] <sprung> ventz, nah, dist-upgrade does kernel updates
[07:54] <chelz> Liquid-Silence: http://code.google.com/p/nautilussvn/wiki/Installation
[07:55] <sprung> ventz, and other updates closely related to the kernel version
[07:55] <ventz> sprung: and if i do want to upgrade the distribution (not that i do), how do i go about that?
[07:55] <maco> ventz: apt-get dist-upgrade differs from apt-get upgrade in that it will remove obsolete packages and add new dependencies, while apt-get update will not. this is necessary when upgrading from one distro release to another, but it is not the *only* time it is necessary. thus, in aptitude, dist-upgrade has been renamed to full-upgrade
[07:55] <sprung> ventz, that's a whole other can of worms
[07:55] <chelz> k0d3g3ar: there are also things like rsnapshot
[07:55] <sprung> !upgrade
[07:55] <sprung> ^^^
[07:55] <sprung> ventz, everything you need should be there
[07:55] <sprung> --------^
[07:55] <maco> ventz: apt-get dist-upgrade will only change you from one release to another if you've modified /etc/apt/sources.list to point to a newer release, but this method of upgrading is not recommended
[07:56] <maco> ventz: the recommended way to change distro releases is "sudo do-release-upgrade"
[07:56] <maco> ventz: that clear things up?
[07:56] <ventz> maco: yes! perfect. thank you
[07:56] <sprung> maco: see i wouldn't have told him that option so he doesn't even try it
[07:56] <ventz> i am coming from the openbsd world, and this is very different :)
[07:56] <marian> sprung: ok, did that. should i try Gnomebaker again to burn a cd?
[07:56] <sprung> marian, Yes.
[07:56] <ventz> sprung: thanks for urls too
[07:56] <Liquid-Silence> hmmm
[07:56] <maco> sprung: well if ventz wants to know why "dist-upgrade" is used to refer to changing releases, i think its necessary to explain that itll *only* act in that manor if other steps are followed first
[07:57] <maco> s/manor/manner/
[07:57] <marian> sprung: didn't work
[07:57] <sprung> marian, ok hold on a sec
[07:57] <marian> chelz: that's what I'm trying to figure out
[07:58] <sprung> marian, if you do a ps ax|grep kio_audiocd does it find anything besides grep kio_audiocd
[07:58] <TLUL> Is it normal for Ubuntu to keep old versions of the kernel in the boot list after an upgrade through the update manager?
[07:58] <TLUL> (Though still adding the new kernel)
[07:58] <chelz> marian: pastebin the out put of: lsof /dev/scd1
[07:59] <sprung> that too
[07:59] <Myrtti> TLUL: yes. handy if the nnew one doesn't work
[07:59] <marian> sprung: did ps ax|grep kio audiocd and got no such file or directory
[08:00] <sprung> marian, chelz is on the right track
[08:00] <sprung> chelz, i didn't know you could do that with devices
[08:00] <TLUL> Myrtti: Indeed it is. Karmic's latest kernel only boots up right about 50% of the time.
[08:00] <TLUL> Myrtti: And this behaviour persisted through a reformat/reinstall.
[08:00] <chelz> sprung: you might not be able to
[08:00] <chelz> i'm not sure
[08:01] <Myrtti> TLUL: you need to specifically remove the old after you've deccided the new wks sufficiently
[08:01] <marian> I typed lsof /dev/scd1 and there was no output
[08:01] <Myrtti> works, even
[08:01] <sprung> marian, do a ps ax and pastebin it
[08:01] <TLUL> Myrtti: I'd rather not remove it, since I never know when I might need to boot up quickly.
[08:02] <theadmin> what is an .uni file and how can that be opened?
[08:02] <TLUL> Any idea why the new kernel sometimes fails a second or two into booting?
[08:02] <marian> http://paste.ubuntu.com/370056/
[08:02] <Liquid-Silence> has anyone gotten nautilus to open files in a terminal with vim?
[08:02] <theadmin> Liquid-Silence: Just make it open the file with "gnome-terminal vim"
[08:03] <sprung> marian, on an unrelated note you probably don't need to be running avahi-daemon
[08:04] <theadmin> Liquid-Silence: Hm. That doesn't seem to work.
[08:04] <marian> sprung: Windevice?
[08:04] <marian> winedevice?
[08:04] <Liquid-Silence> all good bro
[08:04] <Liquid-Silence> :)
[08:04] <Liquid-Silence> not just to make my fonts nice
[08:04] <Liquid-Silence> :d
[08:04] <ZykoticK9> Liquid-Silence, i think it's "gnome-terminal -e vim"
[08:05] <sprung> marian, we're going to start eliminating some possibilities here
[08:05] <ZykoticK9> Liquid-Silence, ahhh, but it doesn't bring the file in -- i see the problem now
[08:05] <sprung> marian, kill -9 3045
[08:05] <marian> sprung: did you notice winedevice? i'm pretty sure that is the second cd in my computer
[08:05] <marian> ok
[08:05] <sprung> marian, we'll try that next
[08:06] <sprung> OH
[08:06] <sprung> lol
[08:06] <marian> sprung: ok, killed it. try GnomeBaker again?
[08:06] <sprung> marian, i see what the problem is
[08:06] <sprung>  3703 ?        Ssl    0:00 E:\Setup.exe
[08:06] <marian> kewl
[08:07] <sprung> you're running something with Wine using your cdrom
[08:07] <sprung> close everything that is using wine please
[08:07] <sprung> there's a setup program of some sort running right now and it's monopolizing your cdrom drive no wonder you can't burn
[08:08] <marian> sprung: right, but i want to keep that program open because the cd i am burning is for taht wine program. close it anyway? won't put me back more than 5 or ten minutes
[08:09] <Josh90> Locking an account via the command line
[08:09] <sprung> marian, I am not understanding you. The CD you are burning is for "that wine program". okay, why are you running it right now? Just burn it and run it when you're done
[08:09] <TLUL> marian: If you wan't to burn a disc, you'll need to stop all other programs from accessing the drive.
[08:09] <sprung> exactly
[08:09] <marian> ok, killing everything with wine
[08:10] <peterseb> which is good - wine or virtual box
[08:10] <sprung> marian, you will find that although Wine has made wonderful leaps and bounds, and much pats on the back to them, it's still buggy as hell
[08:10] <sprung> if something's wrong always kill wine first
[08:10] <TLUL> "Make me a sandwich."    "What? Make it yourself!"    "sudo make me a sandwich."    "Okay."
[08:10] <ZykoticK9> peterseb, those are two totally different thing!  apples & oranges
[08:11] <theadmin> peterseb: Let's see. Box lets you run Windows inside Linux, eating a lot of memory. WINE runs apps directly from Linux, BUT is buggy
[08:11] <TLUL> peterseb: It depends what you want to use the programs for.
[08:11] <sprung> marian, and you almost certainly don't need avahi-daemon running, and it's a potential security vulnerability.
[08:11] <sprung> i tell everybody that though
[08:12] <ZykoticK9> Josh90, to lock an account (disable it) "sudo passwd $USERNAME -l" use "-u" to unlock
[08:12] <titan_ark> my fonts have gone from bad to worse
[08:12] <titan_ark> :(
[08:12] <sprung> marian, how's it coming
[08:12] <TLUL> sprung: What does avahi-daemon do?
[08:13] <sprung> it's the open source version of the Bonjour service for windows
[08:13] <marian> Ok, that was it. I was in the middle of install something from a different cdrom, and the program is burning fine now. Thank you.
[08:13] <Josh90> ZykoticK9: Thanks
[08:13] <TLUL> sprung: Isn't support through that provided by Pidgin?
[08:13] <sprung> it's an Apple network auto-config service
[08:13] <sprung> zeroconfig shit
[08:13] <Talon_> how do I clean my grub list? everytime I get a kernel update, i get a new addition to my grub for the new kernel, i got like 6 choices for ubuntu now in grub
[08:13] <marian> sprung: how do i prevent that program from loading?
[08:14] <sprung> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avahi_%28software%29
[08:14] <TLUL> Talon_: You will have to edit the list manually (I was just asking about this).
[08:14] <chelz> Josh90: actually passwd -l #username
[08:14] <chelz> TLUL: sudo apt-get install computer-janitor
[08:14] <chelz> Talon_: sudo apt-get install computer-janitor
[08:14] <theadmin> chelz: What does it have to do with janitors?
[08:14] <TLUL> Talon_: Though sometimes an old kernel listing is useful in case the current one is buggy. I've been having problems with version... um... 17, is it?
[08:14] <chelz> TLUL: when you remove the kernel packages, with a tool like computer-janitor, it will remove it from the grub list
[08:14] <Myrtti> TLUL, Talon_ just uninstall the unused kernel images with synaptic
[08:14] <chelz> the: when you remove the kernel packages, with a tool like computer-janitor, it will remove it from the grub list
[08:14] <ZykoticK9> Josh90, chelz is correct
[08:15] <chelz> theadmin: when you remove the kernel packages, with a tool like computer-janitor, it will remove it from the grub list
[08:15] <sprung> sudo update-rc.d -f avahi-daeomn remove should do it
[08:15] <TLUL> chelz: I don't wan't to remove them.
[08:15] <theadmin> chelz: When I remove the kernel packages, it reconfigures GRUB automatically. Don't know about GRUB2 though
[08:15] <chelz> TLUL: so you do but you don't? make up your mind :P
[08:15] <sprung> sudo update-rc.d -f avahi-daemon remove should do it
[08:15] <Josh90> chelz , ZykoticK9 Thanks
[08:15] <TLUL> chelz: I never said I wanted to remove them.
[08:15] <sprung> i misspelled
[08:15] <fawaz> I'm installing cuda and i keep getting the following errors http://pastebin.com/d506d0952      Please help :)
[08:15] <chilicuil> hi, in ubuntu there is an option super useful to share whole folders by clicking with the secundary boton -> properties -> share and I wonder what could be the translation in the console?, I've looked at /etc/samba/smb.conf but there are no changes
[08:15] <theadmin> TLUL, so you want to remove them only from menu?
[08:16] <TLUL> theadmin: No, I don't want to remove anything. Talon wanted to remove them.
[08:16] <chelz> TLUL: if they're out of your grub list you're not using them. but anyway, if you *really* want to keep them but not have them in your grub list, then i take it that user would be okay editing stuff manually. but for a normal user that's not necessary
[08:16] <Liquid-Silence> hmm
[08:16] <sprung> chilicuil, what is your native language?
[08:16] <Liquid-Silence> what happend to the ms core font package?
[08:16] <nomnex> xchat: how to I hide messages x has joined #channel / x has left #channel?

[08:17] <sprung> what is it
[08:17] <chelz> !es | chilicuil
[08:17] <Talon_> computer janitor was already installed in my version of ubuntu, guess i have to do it thru synaptic
[08:17] <chilicuil> sure, sprung
[08:17] <Talon_> it says theres nothing to clean up lol
[08:17] <sprung> chilicuil, de nada
[08:18] <chilicuil> it happens that in ubuntu-es everyone is sleeping, thx for the help chelz
[08:18] <chelz> Talon_: search for "linux-image" in synaptic and remove the kernels you're *sure* you're not using
[08:18] <nomnex> xchat: Hide/join part messages. got it now!
[08:18] <chelz> chilicuil: that link should work
[08:18] <sprung> chilicuil, oh okay well i thought it might help
[08:19] <Liquid-Silence> hmmm code fonts are gone :(
[08:19] <ouyes> chelz, after update, i have an old kernel,  how to remove it?
[08:19] <chelz> Liquid-Silence: it's now ttf-mscorefonts-installer
[08:19] <Talon_> ok well i just updated n restarted to 2.6.31-19-generic so anything lower than that i can remove eh? should i keep at least one for a backup?
[08:19] <rosco> ?  i'm partitioning HD of old laptop 32GB, but registers only 27GB.  windoze will only be on it until i can fully install xubuntu next friday (need more ram).  instead of recommended 20GB to M$ and 10GB to unused FAT for linux and eventually xubuntu, can i go 15/15?
[08:19] <chelz> ouyes: search for it in synaptic. it'll be called "linux-image" something
[08:19] <sprung> by the way, ext4 ate my %$#%^$ desktop
[08:19] <sprung> i am never using ext4 again
[08:19] <sprung> i am so mad
[08:19] <chelz> Talon_: keeping one sounds good yeah
[08:19] <chelz> sprung: what happened?
[08:20] <rosco> that question is on top
[08:20] <rosco> on topic
[08:20] <sprung> ext4 has a glitch that hates 0 kb files
[08:20] <chelz> sprung: is there a bug reported for it?
[08:20] <sprung> it's "supposedly" fixed
[08:20] <sprung> but in the meantime linux ate my desktop.
[08:20] <sweb> hi
[08:20] <chelz> rosco: yes, at least 8GB is necessary
[08:20] <rosco> using gparted, can i go 15/15 GB to M$ and linux???
[08:20] <sprung> it's using encryptfs
[08:20] <sweb> i ahve a problem ... mynumkeys work as a mouse arrow control ...
[08:20] <rosco> 8G for what, chelz
[08:21] <chelz> sprung: you should backup generally, but yeah eating your desktop is bad times
[08:21] <sprung> so file recovery is basically a lost cause
[08:21] <chelz> rosco: for ubuntu
[08:21] <chelz> rosco: 8GB or more
[08:21] <DVS01> rosco: yes
[08:21] <sprung> chelz, just don't.
[08:21] <sprung> chelz, don't.
[08:21] <buckfast> Does ubuntu use ntfs-3g by default for ntfs partitions?
[08:21] <sprung> chelz, because you saying that makes me feel homicidal.
[08:21] <chelz> buckfast: yes
[08:21] <DVS01> you can actually give the entire drive to windows and then have ubuntu boot up from a disk image thats stored on your windows filesystem
[08:21] <sweb> my numkeys work as a mouse arrow control ... help me ...
[08:21] <chilicuil> chelz, yes it explains how to add directories but my question was, what files does ubuntu change to share folders while setting them up in the X system?, coz I've shared some of them in that way and I don't see them in the /etc/samba/smb.conf file
[08:21] <chelz> sprung: eh.. if you don't then it'll happen again. just a matter of time. unless you want it to happen again.
[08:22] <rosco> oh, i saw ten.   my question is taht i only have 27GB to work with.  the website says minimum 20GB for M$  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowtoResizeWindowsPartitions
[08:22] <sweb> :-(
[08:22] <DVS01> thats actually pretty convenient for people who already have their partitions set up for windows
[08:22] <sprung> chelz, didn't i just suggest you not do what you are doing right now?
[08:22] <chelz> !hate | sprung
[08:22] <buckfast> chelz: I'd like to have a partition that I can make changes to in both, linux and windows, is it safe to write to ntfs partitions under linux?
[08:22] <rosco> chelz: adn DVS01 i'd like to give M$ say, 15GB instead of 20GB.
[08:22] <chelz> rosco: what version of windows?
[08:22] <chelz> buckfast: yes
[08:22] <sprung> "you know, if you had paid your car insurance on time, you wouldn't be owing the guy with the BMW 10 grand"
[08:22] <theadmin> sweb: I believe you can fix it in System - Preferences - Mouse
[08:22] <sprung> thanks.
[08:23] <Talon_> ok now what if i want to remove some of those other entries from grub, like memtest
[08:23] <sprung> real helpful after the fact.
[08:23] <rosco> XP
[08:23] <sprung> just rub it in a little more
[08:23] <rosco> chelz: ^
[08:23] <chelz> sprung: not trying to be helpful about what happened in the past, trying to be helpful about what might happen in the future
[08:23] <theadmin> sweb: Oops. System - Preferences - Keyboard - Mouse keys
[08:23] <sweb> theadmin: my keyboard numkeys work as a mouse controller ... where is config ?
[08:24] <chelz> Talon_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Configuring%20GRUB%202
[08:24] <chelz> rosco: yeah 15 is more than enough
[08:24] <iflema> sweb hold shift and press num lock
[08:24] <geekyogi> my sys grub.conf file is not found.. so its in grub rescue mode.. when I try to live boot it says bootloader -> /caspeb/initrd.lz n its unable to boot
[08:24] <chelz> rosco: install windows then install ubuntu
[08:24] <sweb> iflema: thank it's work :*
[08:24] <[BT]Brendan> The Mic line in on laptop doesn't work in Ubuntu. How can I go about troubleshooting this?
[08:24] <iflema> :)
[08:24] <sprung> chelz, or skip the first part
[08:25] <sweb> viva ubuntu
[08:25] <chelz> heh yeah optionally
[08:25] <sprung> i find it very disturbing that ext4 was included in the ubuntu distro
[08:25] <geekyogi> please help me to repair my ubuntu install
[08:25] <sprung> because of what happened
[08:25] <geekyogi> my sys grub.conf file is not found.. so its in grub rescue mode.. when I try to live boot it says bootloader -> /caspeb/initrd.lz n its unable to boot
[08:25] <chelz> [BT]Brendan: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting#Getting%20Line%20Input%20to%20work%20%28Microphone,%20etc%29
[08:26] <rosco> chelz: windoze is installed.  i'm defragmenting and partitioning in preparation.
[08:26] <chelz> sprung: sounds like an LTS is more your style
[08:26] <sprung> i'm fortunate that I just use my desktop for my shows i download from usenet
[08:26] <chelz> rosco: let the ubuntu installer do the partitioning
[08:26] <sprung> if i had something more important on there i would be tracking down ext4 developers and assassinating them
[08:26] <rosco> Does anyone know, say, DVS01 if i can give win XP only 15GB instead of recommended 20GB.  office is gone
[08:26] <[BT]Brendan> Thanks chelz, I'll have a read and see how I go.
[08:26] <TLUL> buckfast: yes, linux can understand ntfs partitions. My Windows install can't seem to understand any Linux filesystems though.
[08:26] <Josh90> can root change the password on an account if you can remember password
[08:27] <TLUL> Oops
[08:27] <rosco> chelz: sorry, i just saw you answered that
[08:27] <sprung> i store my more important stuff on a drive that i do back up, and it's ext3
[08:27] <rosco> sorry, chelz
[08:27] <TLUL> My window didn't scroll... that message was old.
[08:27] <bazhang> sprung, that type of commentary is both offtopic and unacceptable. Please stop now.
[08:27] <chelz> geekyogi: follow the directions after "2).Using Ubuntu 9.10 livecd" here: http://ubuntuguide.net/how-to-restore-grub-2-after-reinstalling-windows-xpvistawin7
[08:27] <theadmin> Josh90: Sure thing, you can do this.
[08:27] <sprung> bazhang, the assassination part was a joke, but seriously why is ext4 included in ubuntu if it is fatally buggy like that
[08:28] <geekyogi> live cd's not workin
[08:28] <bazhang> sprung, continue with the offtopic chat elsewhere
[08:28] <chelz> !ot | sprung
[08:28] <buckfast> TLUL: Great, that's what I needed to hear. :)
[08:28] <theadmin> Josh90: sudo usermod -p newpassword username
[08:29] <fale> hi
[08:29] <chelz> buckfast: i think of it as a defense mechanism. if windows can't get to linux then viruses can't destroy linux data
[08:29] <chelz> !hi | fale
[08:29] <rosco> i'm going to ubuntu-offtopic. THX!
[08:29] <mneptok> sprung: what version of Ubuntu were you using?
[08:30] <chelz> geekyogi: booting to it doesn't work? sounds like you might have a bad disc. try burning another or use unetbootin to put ubuntu on a usb flashdrive
[08:30] <sprung> mneptok, most current, very fresh install actually i reinstalled not a month ago
[08:30] <Josh90> theadmin: I not sure how too.
[08:30] <buckfast> chelz: lol, that's true
[08:30] <geekyogi> clelz I've tried 3 distros.. fedora, redhat, ubuntu..
[08:31] <sprung> mneptok, i do a lot of usenet downloading and that can often involve files with 0 byte value when they are assembling.
[08:31] <sprung> mneptok, there's some sort of but with ext4 that flips out with 0 byte files
[08:31] <chelz> geekyogi: do you get the same or similar messages when you try to boot them?
[08:31] <sprung> and suddenly POOF no more desktop files
[08:31] <geekyogi> never
[08:32] <geekyogi> chelz : never.. I had these kinda messages
[08:32] <sprung> and even better, i'm using encryptfs on my home dir so they're not only missing but totally unrecoverable
[08:32] <chelz> geekyogi: to fix grub you need to get into a live environment of some kind. ideally ubuntu karmic
[08:32] <sprung> but hey this is offtopic i have to stop mneptok you really shouldn't have asked me that question because i got started again
[08:32] <theadmin> Josh90: Open a terminal, enter this: "sudo usermod -p newpassword username"
[08:33] <geekyogi> any other method to fix grub..??? without live cd
[08:33] <theadmin> geekyogi: Well, LiveUSB maybe
[08:33] <mneptok> sprung: your current discussion is not, as it relates to support and information about the issue you are having. discussing assassinations is not on-topic.
[08:33] <geekyogi> will try tat..
[08:33] <sprung> mneptok, well that's because some people have no sense of obviously i'm kidding
[08:34] <spekko> geekyogi, whats your problem exactly?
[08:34] <mneptok> sprung: the only 0-byte file issue i know of with ext4 is the filesystem replacing files with 0-byte version after a crash. and that was patched by Ted Ts'o last spring.
[08:34] <mneptok> sprung: kidding or not, it has not relation to Ubuntu support.
[08:34] <mneptok> s/not/no/
[08:34] <sprung> mneptok, that's almost what happened
[08:35] <sprung> mneptok, i think what happened is it affected my entire /home/sprung/Desktop directory at once
[08:35] <geekyogi> Live cds not workin. grub.conf file not found.. unable to boot anything.. I get the grub recovery prompt..
[08:35] <chelz> geekyogi: unetbootin creates liveusbs
[08:35] <Zencyde> Some process is uploading at 30KiB/s and I don't recall turning something on to upload. Is there a way to check which processes are using bandwidth?
[08:35] <sprung> everything POOF gone
[08:35] <geekyogi> k
[08:35] <chelz> !ot | mneptok
[08:35] <theadmin> Zencyde: Sure
[08:35] <chelz> !ot | sprung
[08:35] <mneptok> sprung: that bug was fixed upstream in the kernel well before Karmic shipped.
[08:35] <theadmin> Zencyde: netstat -p | more
[08:35] <sprung> mneptok, see what i mean
[08:35] <geekyogi> chelz k
[08:36] <mneptok> chelz: we are discussing a support issue.
[08:36] <sprung> mneptok, they don't want us doing this in this channel
[08:36]  * iflema :)
[08:36] <Zencyde> Thanks, theadmin.
[08:36] <sprung> mneptok, arguing will just get you banned
[08:36] <mneptok> sprung: no it won't.
[08:36] <sprung> mneptok, they're huge bureaucrats
[08:36] <sprung> watch it happen.
[08:37] <mneptok> sprung: this bit is off-topic. please let's get back to the issue.
[08:37] <DVS01> eh.. what happened?
[08:37] <chelz> geekyogi: http://linuxers.org/howto/how-recover-grub2-ubuntu-910-karmic-koala
[08:37] <sprung> mneptok, so all my files vanished off the face of the earth during a processing of a usenet download
[08:37] <sprung> on the Desktop anyway
[08:38] <mneptok> sprung: FWIW, i use ext4 extensively in production and i have yet to see an issue like this (knock wood). so i would not rule out the possibility of hardware failure. it may your drive is actually heading south.
[08:38] <sprung> i use hellanzb, which watches the Desktop folder for .nzb files i download and grabs them and processes them, then outputs them back to the desktop
[08:38] <TLUL> sprung: I have had no issues with ext4.
[08:38] <sprung> well, what i do is pretty intensive
[08:38] <Dr_Willis> Theres been some people with ext4 issues..  so its been known tohappen.
[08:39] <sprung> i get all kinds of corrupt files to process from usenet
[08:39] <Dr_Willis> Use ext3 if you perfer I guess.
[08:39] <Dr_Willis> sprung:  ive not heard of that issue.
[08:39] <geekyogi1> chelz , could this be any hardware problem.??
[08:39] <sprung> well usenet downloads will definitely put any filesystem through the ringer as far as whether it's stable or not
[08:39] <DVS01> sprung: could it be the downloaded files themselves?
[08:39] <sprung> you get corrupt downloads that must be repaired with .par files
[08:39] <DVS01> sprung: do your downloads come with PAR volumes?
[08:39] <chelz> geekyogi1: are you sure when you boot an ubuntu livecd you select "try ubuntu"?
[08:39] <sprung> DVS01, oh absolutely
[08:40] <DVS01> ok good
[08:40] <DVS01> i love par
[08:40] <sprung> DVS01, usenet is a dirty dirty file corruption hellhole
[08:40] <sprung> that is a known thing
[08:40] <geekyogi1> chelz I tried both 'try' and install
[08:40] <geekyogi1> chelz same error
[08:40] <sprung> DVS01, it is so bad that there is a system with each download of including .par files to repair corrupted files
[08:40] <chelz> geekyogi1: is there a way for you to take a picture of the error and upload the picture?
[08:40] <mneptok> sprung: have you spent time on Launchpad looking for other people with the same symptom you experienced? using Karmic? with current kernels?
[08:41] <geekyogi1> chelz I'll do tat
[08:41] <sprung> mneptok, all my stuff was current at the time
[08:41] <sprung> mneptok, i update immediately, and this OS was a fresh install not a month ago.
[08:41] <sprung> with Karmic.
[08:41] <sprung> and yes, i have seen some similar problems
[08:41] <mneptok> sprung: right, so before you blame the filesystem itself, do you have any evidence other than your anecdotal experience, that this issue is actually a filesystem issue?
[08:42] <sprung> and i also see in the kernel changelog there's a LOT of bugfixes with cryptfs on ext4
[08:42] <mneptok> sprung: dm-crypt / LVM?
[08:43] <sprung> mneptok, huh, good question how do i check
[08:43] <sprung> i though this was encrypt-FS
[08:43] <twotwenty>  /join #ubuntu-x
[08:43] <sprung> the standard one for ubuntu for your home folder
[08:44] <Ragelor> hi, is there someone who can help me to get pulseaudio working???
[08:44] <sprung> !pulseaudio
[08:44] <TLUL> So what exactly is sprung's issue with his filesystem?
[08:44] <mneptok> sprung: yes, the home encryption uses ecryptfs. i use dm-crypt to encrypt entire partitions instead. which has worked very well with ext4.
[08:44] <sprung> TLUL, oh nothing, just everything on my desktop vanished without a trace for no reason at all and no logs
[08:45] <chelz> Ragelor: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting
[08:45] <geekyogi1> chelz : gimme 5 min.. where should I upload?
[08:45] <sprung> TLUL, no big deal or anything i mean heck, who needs files on their desktops
[08:45] <chelz> !pastebin | geekyogi1
[08:45] <mneptok> sprung: you are wandering back off-topic.
[08:45] <theadmin> I never keep anything on desktop :D But I did have random file dissapearing back in Jaunty
[08:45] <sprung> mneptok, right so i'm using encryptfs
[08:46] <sprung> the problem may actually be fixed now
[08:46] <sprung> i just updated the kernel
[08:46] <sprung> but it doesn't fix the files, which thanks guys for rubbing in "you know, if you had backed up you would still have your files"
[08:46] <Ragelor> chelz: the article is about alsa ... alsa is working - but i cant start pulseaudio ...
[08:46] <mneptok> sprung: the kernel release in the past 24h was for a CVE, not ext4 issues, AFAIK.
[08:47] <sprung> actually there were quite a few encryptfs issues on the changelog, i just read it
[08:47] <mneptok> sprung: right you are if you say so.
[08:47] <[BT]Brendan> chelz, I went through the instructions with no success.
[08:47] <sprung> so basically where you are stuck on mneptok is whether i should blame ext4 or encryptfs.
[08:48] <mneptok> sprung: and the "rubbing it in" part is off-topic. please stay on-topic and only relay that information that will help you get support. ranting does not.
[08:48] <archboxman> Ragelor: do you have pluggings installed???
[08:48] <RedBand> In Baobab, it shows "Total filesystem capacity. 362.6 GB (used: 338.6 GB available: 24.0 GB). Yet for my home folder, it says 100% Usage. In both nautilus and Thunar, it says I have 3.7 GB free. Any ideas on why both file managers aren't recognizing my freespace? Also, I just fixed a problem where I couldn't log in because of the free space.
[08:48] <mneptok> sprung: or the app you were using. or faulty hardware.
[08:48] <sprung> mneptok, you're kind of leading me with a carrot with this conversation quite frankly
[08:49] <mneptok> sprung: how so?
[08:49] <Ragelor> archboxman: i installed nearly everything with pulse, except the debugging-packages
[08:49] <mneptok> sprung: if anything, i'm trying to lead you to accepting that immediately balming the filesystem may be premature.
[08:49] <sprung> mneptok, well, you want to know what happened yet you are challenging me
[08:49] <Ragelor> at least ps -A|grep pulse doesnt show me pulse to be working ...
[08:49] <theadmin> RedBand: Sounds like some fs problem to me
[08:49] <mneptok> *blaming
[08:50] <archboxman> Ragelor: system > preference > volume control no luck on getting audio settings???

[08:50] <quick_lappy> Hey, how do I switch my screen color from 32 bit to 16 bit in ubuntu 9.10?
[08:50] <daho> How can I find delited files??????
[08:50] <mneptok> sprung: i am not challenging the fact you say files disappeared. i'm challenging that you *know* it was a bug in ext4 that caused it.
[08:50] <Dr_Willis> !undelete | daho
[08:51] <mneptok> sprung: please lose the attitude. i am trying to help you.
[08:51] <swiftarrow> Hi, I have a big problem.  COmpiz used to work in 8.04, but now after upgrading to 9.10 it doesnt.  When I run compiz-check, everything's A-OK, but running compiz --replace causes X to restart, and no compiz.  Help please... thanks in advance!
[08:51] <RedBand> theadmin, does that have to do with fstab or kernel updates?
[08:51] <Ragelor> archboxman: can use audio through alsa - but i need 2 soundcards next weekend - so i want to use pulse ...
[08:52] <theadmin> RedBand: Neh neither don't seem the problem. Hard shutdowns/reboots may be
[08:52] <soreau> swiftarrow: Can you pastebin the output of 'compiz &' from your terminal to pastebin.com?
[08:52] <chelz> daho: turning off the affected computer as quickly as possible is generally a good idea
[08:52] <swiftarrow> soreau, just a minute
[08:52] <quick_lappy> Anybody able to answer my question above? How do I switch my screen color from 32 bit to 16 bit in ubuntu 9.10?
[08:52] <sprung> mneptok, i don't think i have the right 'attitude' to be helped at the moment.
[08:53] <mneptok> sprung: then you should /part the channel
[08:53] <chelz> ^

[08:53] <Ragelor> archboxman: my soundcards are mentioned to work with pulse (onboard & alesis IO2) - ...

[08:55] <Gryllida> Hi. Suppose I've installed a STS version of Ubuntu and did some things (for example, installed LyX and changed wallpaper).

[08:55] <RedBand> yea, it's running for me. I'll reboot and let it run (i've been cancelling it out all day).
[08:56] <mneptok> Gryllida: an upgrade will preserve apps and settings.
[08:56] <geekyogi1> chelz same error..
[08:56] <RedBand> Thanks theadmin, chelz.

[08:56] <soreau> swiftarrow: I have heard of people having the same problem with that intel gpu. Something is wrong with the drivers in karmic and it is blacklisted, probably for this reason
[08:56] <Dr_Willis> Gryllida:   Updates shouldent be affecting the users settings
[08:57] <quick_lappy> Anybody able to answer my question above? How do I switch my screen color from 32 bit mode to 16 bit in ubuntu 9.10?
[08:57] <[BT]Brendan> The mic line in doesn't work on my laptop. I've tried the instructions on the help.ubuntu site but it hasn't worked for me.
[08:57] <Gryllida> Dr_Willis, " Updates shouldent be affecting the users settings" - Where is it mentioned in documentation at ubuntu.com?
[08:57] <mneptok> Gryllida: i'm sure Google can tell you. i know from experience.
[08:57] <soreau> swiftarrow: I recommend you try with Lucid or Jaunty and file a bug report if the problem persists
[08:57] <archboxman> Ragelor: you followed these steps to get pulseaudio to work in xubuntu???

[08:57] <chelz> geekyogi1: have you tried with a liveusb?
[08:58] <swiftarrow> soreau, is it a driver problem, or is it a compiz problem.  I'm using the 2.4 intel driver to get rid of X freezing.
[08:58] <Dr_Willis> Gryllida:  i dont recall ever seeing a apt package ive instgalled that ever messed with the users /home/user/WHATEVER files.
[08:58] <Dr_Willis> Gryllida:    thats part of how the apt system works.
[08:58] <soreau> swiftarrow: It is a problem with the intel driver. Compiz is fine.
[08:58] <swiftarrow> soreau, It's my mom's laptop, she'll scream if I re-install the os one.more.time.  :)
[08:58] <ManuLau> hello all
[08:59] <Dr_Willis> Gryllida:  when doing updates/upgrades ive often (in the past) had to reset users settings due to changes in the new packages.
[08:59] <soreau> swiftarrow: You don't have to reinstall, you can upgrade to lucid after it's released in April
[08:59] <swiftarrow> soreau, is it possible to use the 8.04 intel driver in 9.10?
[08:59] <igie> hi, i just restarted 9.10 and now i cannot mount my internal HD, anyone know why? or how to fix?

[08:59] <DexterLB> hi
[08:59] <DexterLB> I can't remove/install/do any dpkg operations with package mpd because of the following error: /etc/mpd.conf must have pid_file set; cannot stop daemon.
[08:59] <DexterLB> I want to purge mpd. what should I do?
[09:00] <DexterLB> (I have accidently removed mpd.conf )
[09:00] <Ragelor> archman: i used the german ubuntu-wiki but i try your link!
[09:00] <ManuLau> i have a comp. with 4gb ram dual core 2 cpu and Nvidia 8600M GT comp... would it be best to install karmic 64 bit or 32 bit on this laptop?
[09:00] <swiftarrow> soreau, ok, thanks for your help.  If you can think of anything more, there's a thread going on about this over here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1309667&page=2
[09:00] <soreau> swiftarrow: The other thing you can try is upgrading to the latest intel driver user space components, to see if it helps. Maybe you can look into the xorg-edgers repo, though I don't know if it offers intel components
[09:01] <bazhang> ManuLau, up to you; if karmic and you wish 32 bit then install linux-generic-pae to access all of the 4GB
[09:01] <chelz> DexterLB: try "sudo touch /etc/mpd.conf"
[09:01] <swiftarrow> soreau, I was looking at that, but am a little apprehensive.  I'll give it a shot though...
[09:01] <chelz> DexterLB: also "sudo killall mpd"
[09:01] <swiftarrow> soreau, any idea why X just restarts instead of freezing or something?  is it some new failsafe?
[09:01] <chelz> ManuLau: depends on what you plan to be doing. most users run fine with 32bit.
[09:02] <soreau> swiftarrow: It probably wont do any more harm than good.. if you do try latest user space components, it might be a good idea to couple it with a latest kernel possibly from ppa repo
[09:02] <ManuLau> bazhang, kk i stick to 32 bit
[09:02] <DexterLB> chelz: don't work
[09:02] <DexterLB> but I created a mpd.conf with mpd on another PC and copied it to that
[09:02] <DexterLB> and it worked
[09:02] <DexterLB> mpd purged
[09:02] <DexterLB> :)

[09:02] <chelz> ah alright

[09:03] <chelz> igie: is it another hdd?
[09:03] <igie> chelz: yes, two of them actually
[09:03] <swiftarrow> soreau, also, since the functionality has dissapeared with the upgrade to 9.10, would it come back? wouldn't my hardware, once abandoned, be left forever?

[09:25] <archboxman> Ragelor: I've used it still needs some tweeks to work :) ubuntu hypes up to much stuff even with this release of ubuntu 9.10 to much hype
[09:25] <igie> chelz: i guess it can't hurt... brb
[09:26] <geekyogi1> chelz : lol. yeah..  it has been working well for 3 yrs since today.! :P I never touched the grub files..  so I think its not able to read the hard. disks..
[09:26] <chelz> shawnboy: you don't have to put in a passphrase
[09:26] <Kerio> Im trying to set a system which i intend to use as a server, 400w PSU, ati 3870 intel dual core and a p45 gigabyte chipset. Everything spins in the box but i dont get a picture. Totally black screen. I have tried the 3870 gfx in another box - and it is working. Is it that the 3870 cant start with 400w psu or is the motherboard broken? any ideas?
[09:26] <chelz> geekyogi1: booting to a livecd should have nothing to do with the status of hard disks
[09:26] <Ragelor> archboxman, thx :) ... i will give my usb-card a try ... bye
[09:27] <geekyogi1> chelz : ah.. den der is something else wrong.. perhaps RAM..??
[09:27] <chelz> Kerio: should talk to your motherboard people
[09:27] <chelz> geekyogi1: well things boot but i have never seen that error before
[09:27] <shawnboy> hmmm. ok. I just tried something from that page: ssh -o PreferredAuthentications=publickey and got "Permission Denied (publickey,password)"
[09:27] <geekyogi1> chelz : Hmm..now its time for Dell support. :P
[09:27] <chelz> geekyogi1: it always says "/caspeb/initrd.lz"? even with the usb?
[09:28] <geekyogi1> chelz : yeah
[09:28] <shawnboy> guess I have something not so simple wrong. Guess I'll have to keep poking around at it. maybe I need a chmod.
[09:28] <chelz> geekyogi1: google has absolutely no results for that. have you tried verifying the md5sums of the disc images you have?
[09:29] <archboxman> Kerio: you sure the ram is setted correctly and har drive is put in the right connection there are lost of variables to consider when building your own system...That is why I double check all my steps...
[09:29] <chelz> geekyogi1: you could also try pointing a torrent at the isos you have to check them and repair them if necessary
[09:29] <faultyground> Hey, is there by chance a termincal command o check cpu temp?
[09:29] <quader_> рш
[09:29] <geekyogi1> chelz : I've tried more than 7 linux distros..
[09:29] <chelz> shawnboy: try to connect like you do with putty only have ssh with "-vvv" and pastebin it
[09:29] <chelz> geekyogi1: verified the sums of all of them?
[09:30] <archboxman> Kerio: you sure the video card is setted correctly
[09:30] <archboxman> Kerio: this is why I double check every thing before through the power on....
[09:30] <Kerio> only one harddrive connected, sata as well as power, have tried switching around the ram slots. But the bios should still start dont you think?
[09:30] <geekyogi1>  chelz: all ubuntu machine show the same error.. other distros don't show a thing.. dey just reboot..  yeah all are verified..
[09:30] <chelz> Kerio: does it beep at all?
[09:30] <Kerio> even if a ram would be faulty
[09:30] <shawnboy> chelz: I'm sorry, but I'm not sure what u mean about -vvv and pastebin. Also, putty is on XP, I'm in karmic now (no Putty).
[09:30] <Kerio> i havent connected any speaker
[09:31] <Kerio> (dont have on)
[09:31] <Kerio> one*
[09:31] <chelz> shawnboy: do "ssh -vvv" and whatever else you do, and pastebin its output
[09:31] <chelz> Kerio: mobos beep using the pcspeaker if stuff is wrong
[09:31] <chelz> ie you don't need speakers
[09:31] <archboxman> Kerio: the cmos should have ran up and you should be able to press f1 , f2 or f10 to enter your bios???
[09:32] <Kerio> i got a theory that pherhaps because it is a big fat gfx (ati 3870) and only i 400w psu, but it should still be able to show a picture right?
[09:33] <buckfast> For some reason I can't access the apcupsd CGI interface. page not found. What could be the problem
[09:33] <Kerio> i have veryfied that the gfx is working in another machine
[09:33] <chelz> geekyogi1: what distros have you tried with unetbootin?
[09:33] <rosco> bazhang: would asking questions as how to get lubuntu onto the laptop be on-topic?
[09:33] <shawnboy> chelz: oh my gosh! ok. but before I do that... an easy question that I wondered may be cause of this.. if my username on karmic is diff than username I'm loggin into SSH server with, does that matter when it comes to using the key?
[09:33] <igie> chelz: restarted to no avail... still not recognizing usb drives, any more nifty links? ;)
[09:33] <chelz> shawnboy: yes. you need to do "ssh -l username"
[09:33] <shawnboy> (oh my gosh because the huge output. guess -vvv means super verbose)
[09:34] <[BT]Brendan> chelz,  sorry to keep bugging the instructions were basically the same as the other ones and don't seem to work at all for me.
[09:34] <geekyogi1> chelz:  ubuntu 9.10
[09:34] <shawnboy> yep, was always doing that. just wanted to make sure.
[09:34] <swiftarrow> Hi, how do I create an xorg.conf file in ubuntu 9.10?
[09:35] <archboxman> Kerio: not even close the 3870 only requires a 400 watt psu
[09:36] <chelz> geekyogi1: and you got the exact same message?
[09:36] <chelz> igie: do you get any dmesg output when you plug in a usb device?
[09:36] <Kerio> "450 Watt or greater power supply with 75 Watt 6-pin PCI Express® power connector"
[09:36] <geekyogi1> chelz: yup
[09:36] <chelz> [BT]Brendan: np. i haven't had that issue so my best guess would be to poke around the ubuntu sound troubleshooting article
[09:36] <Kerio> but it shouldn't fail getting bios on screen cause of 50w?
[09:37] <Kerio> or what do you think?
[09:37] <chelz> geekyogi1: try this: http://boot.kernel.org and try ubuntu
[09:37] <igie> chelz: i'm not sure what a dmesg is, but nothing happens when i plug them in. (tried more than one, more than once)
[09:37] <geekyogi1> chelz: k.
[09:37] <igie> chelz: nothing shows up in places either
[09:37] <archboxman> Kerio: got that 450 watts is what they say if you use a lot of usbs or have a lot of pci cards... :)
[09:38] <Kerio> allright, så prolly broken motherboard then? :)
[09:38] <chelz> igie: in a terminal do "tail -f /var/log/syslog" then plug in a usb device and see if any new messages pop up. if they do, pastebin it
[09:38] <shawnboy> chelz: output is at... http://pastebin.com/d4fac27f0
[09:38] <archboxman> Kerio: unplug cd rom or dvd player and run up the system will cause less drain on computer power
[09:38] <chelz> Kerio: try another gfx card
[09:38] <iflema> swiftarrow look at the Xorg ma page ' man Xorg ' the -configure option is the one......
[09:39] <Kerio> dont have any other :(
[09:39] <swiftarrow> iflema, good point.
[09:39] <meowbuntu> hi is a usb live install good to use for my main os
[09:39] <archboxman> Kerio: unplug the cd rom and dvd rom it will cause less of a drain on power and then test the system
[09:40] <chelz> shawnboy: then it quits?
[09:40] <Kerio> but im gonna try without cdrom and hdd
[09:40] <swiftarrow> running Xorg -configure gives fatal error: server is already running
[09:40] <shawnboy> then it prompts me for password
[09:40] <chelz> swiftarrow: from a console (ctrl-alt-F1) "sudo services gdm stop"
[09:40] <archboxman> Kerio: NO leave that hard drive alone
[09:40] <shawnboy> chelz: this is output from doing $ssh -l shawnboy 192...
[09:41] <iflema> swiftarrow ctrl+alt+F2 or stop gdm
[09:41] <dexter> !list
[09:41] <chelz> shawnboy: did you add your generated pubkey to authorized_keys ?
[09:41] <igie> chelz: here's what comes up --> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/370114/
[09:41] <swiftarrow> iflema, hmm..
[09:41] <shawnboy> yep. scp'd it to freenas, then did cat id_rsa.pub >> /path/to/authorized_keys
[09:42] <iflema> swiftarrow do some googling
[09:42] <swiftarrow> iflema, that hotkey caused me to lose the screen :(
[09:42] <shawnboy> chelz: then I did cat authorized_keys and it was there.
[09:42] <Kerio> archboxman: why? worst case scenario? :)
[09:42] <iflema> swiftarrow hold ALT and press the left arrow a few times
[09:42] <shawnboy> chelz: ya think rsa is confusing it? I think dsa is default in freenas.
[09:43] <chelz> shawnboy: sure, gen a dsa
[09:43] <archboxman> Kerio: don't play with it I never remove a hard drive and rebuilt over 1000 systems no need... were not after this much power....
[09:43] <chelz> igie: so what happened before this started happening?
[09:44] <swiftarrow> iflema, I finally got tty5...  what does the alt+left arrow do?
[09:44] <chelz> shawnboy: did you take the .pub out of your ~/.ssh also?
[09:44] <shawnboy> chelz: but, i remember when i used to do it from Putty on XP it did work with RSA. Hmmm. I may reboot into XP and try just to test that THAT still works, then come back here.
[09:44] <shawnboy> chelz: uh... no i don't think i removed the .pub
[09:44] <igie> chelz: I was playing around adding users and changing preferences of users and trying out chown commands, but not sure what I did wrong... I tried to undo everything i did, but nothing gets it back to how it was.
[09:45] <iflema> if you pressed alt+ctrl+F2..... then holding alt + left arrow 3 times will get screen back
[09:45] <chelz> shawnboy: move it somwhere besides ~/.ssh and try again
[09:45] <chelz> swiftarrow: press ctrl+alt+f7
[09:45] <shawnboy> chelz: k
[09:46] <Tyiuo> Hello guys, ubuntu noob here, can someone how to do a *safe* upgrade to php 5.3.1 using apt, if Im currently running PHP Version 5.2.4-2ubuntu5.10 ?
[09:46] <chelz> igie: did you change any prefs of /media or anything inside it?
[09:46] <Tyiuo> on ubuntu hardy(
[09:46] <chelz> igie: also what's the output of "groups youruser"
[09:46] <igie> chelz: yes, i changed tons in /media
[09:46] <archboxman> Kerio: what the outcome????
[09:47] <shawnboy> chelz: U DUH GURU. that worked. possible to tell me short answer as to why that fixed it? and THANKS. I never would've figured that out in a million.
[09:47] <swiftarrow> chelz, cntr+alt+f7 doesn't work properly.  It's ok, i'm goign to hard power cycle.  It finally generated the xorg after stopping gdm
[09:47] <chelz> Tyiuo: are you sure you need php 5.3.x?
[09:47] <swiftarrow> now running startx give blank screen.
[09:47] <chelz> swiftarrow: f7 is your desktop, if gdm is running
[09:47] <igie> chelz: how do i determine "what's the output of "groups youruser"" ? sorry i'm still very green and learning along the way
[09:47] <shawnboy> chelz: poop. got me one step closer.
[09:47] <swiftarrow> chelz, yes, thanks
[09:47] <Tyiuo> chelz, yes unfortunately this bug http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=46578 is ruining me and is only fixed in 5.3.x
[09:48] <swiftarrow> iflema, thanks
[09:48] <chelz> shawnboy: oh i just remember that from some guides. strange that the guide i linked didn't mention that, it should have
[09:48] <chelz> shawnboy: eh
[09:48] <Dantonic> !aotuv
[09:48] <shawnboy> chelz: prompts me for PASSPHRASE now, which makes sense (not password) but then for some reason doesn't work. i'll look at it more closely to see if I can get a clue.
[09:48] <chelz> Tyiuo: one way to install later packages is to do apt-pinning, only it does get pretty risky.
[09:49] <iflema> swiftarrow is that sarcasm? xorg.conf.new should be in ya home directory....
[09:49] <chelz> shawnboy: passphrase sounds like the key you made has a passphrase
[09:49] <BeeStone> hi
[09:49] <Tyiuo> chelz thanks, as I said Im a noob at all of this, but its not common for people to upgrade to latest versions of php? What is the normal recourse?
[09:49] <swiftarrow> iflema, no, not sarcasm.  Yes, it finally generated, and it's in my home dir.  thanks, sincerely
[09:49] <iflema> kk
[09:49] <Tyiuo> (ie if its risky, its probably something I shouldnt do)
[09:50] <esicam> How to join two partitions?
[09:50] <chelz> Tyiuo: people normally just take the version their OS is offering. then wait for a later version in a later release of the distro. but sometimes people do need later versions of packages and apt-pinning is one way to get them. here: http://jaqque.sbih.org/kplug/apt-pinning.html
[09:50] <igie> chelz: I changed my "user privileges to include "FUSE" and VirtualBox. But I undid all of those changes after i messed things up.
[09:51] <BeeStone> Have you guys tested Radeon HD3xxx -series GPUs with that non-opensource (i'm not sure what it is in english..) GPU driver in Ubuntu 9.10?
[09:51] <shawnboy> chelz: I searched that page for all ".pub" references and it doesn't mention removing the id_rsa.pub from the orig dir. that would be helpful in docs. thanks again. I'll see if I can't figure out what's holding me up now.
[09:51] <chelz> esicam: no way. you can grow/shrink them and copy the contents of one into another then delete the smaller one
[09:51] <Dr_Willis> esicam:  one way.. shrink one.. enlarge other.. copy stuff over... repeate as needed.
[09:51] <Dr_Willis> esicam:  i dident say it was a good way. :)
[09:51] <Dantonic> anyone know anything about aotuv whether or not it's better than regular vorbis codecs? and how to install it on ubuntu 9.10?  Thank you
[09:51] <red> VLC subtitles delay is not working properly (at all). I can see the new delay when changing it on the fly with default keybindings f and g, but it has no actual impact on the subtitle sync - anyone know what might be the problem? (works in windows environment fine)
[09:52] <Tyiuo> chelz oh I see that makes sense, so ubuntu hardy is not offering php 5.3 yet, do things normally take a long time? Thanks for the pinning link Ill look into it :)
[09:52] <geekyogi1> chelz : ubuntu 9.04 usb install says : uncompression errortrd.lz ................ system halted..  tryin tat kernel thing now...

[09:56] <daemonvs> can i use itunes in ubuntu?
[09:56] <infid> heh
[09:56] <BeeStone> daemonvs with wine i think yes
[09:56] <BeeStone> but rythmbox should do the trick
[09:56] <shawnboy> chelz: Oops, actually that page does list "rm id_rsa.pub" after uploading it to server,but it doesn't explain why and I figre I may need to use it on another server, so I kept it where it was.
[09:56] <chelz> igie: you can try looking through your ~/.bash_history to see if you didn't anything that you didn't revert
[09:56] <Dr_Willis> !itunes
[09:56] <Dr_Willis> i dont think itunes works with wine
[09:56] <chelz> igie: make sure the prefs on /media are sane also
[09:56] <BeeStone> aa, k
[09:57] <Dantonic> daemonvs, check out songbird
[09:57] <daemonvs> ahh ok
[09:57] <daemonvs> thanks
[09:57] <chelz> shawnboy: ah. well did making a new key work?
[09:57] <geekyogi1> chelz :  tat kernel thing says..  "Loading boot sector.. booting.. could not locate active partition
[09:57] <chelz> geekyogi1: what did you use?
[09:58] <shawnboy> chelz: well, I entered passPHRASE and then output from -vvv shows it is only looking for dsa.. so it fails.
[09:58] <chelz> shawnboy: did you generate a dsa?
[09:58] <shawnboy> chelz: not sure how to make it accept rsa. maybe I have to add a line to the sshd_config on freenas box
[09:58] <chelz> shawnboy: or just use dsa
[09:58] <shawnboy> no. i only gen'd rsa
[09:58] <chelz> your call

[09:59] <BeeStone> what packet should i install to get the best flash support for firefox
[09:59] <Kerio> still no success, gotta get another MB :/
[09:59] <shawnboy> chelz: true. seems like i remember reading somewhere that sometimes an option must go into sshd_config to allow rsa keys. i may look around for that since I already have rsa keys.
[09:59] <Dr_Willis> !flash | BeeStone
[09:59] <igie> chelz: how do I "prefs on /media are sane" ??
[10:00] <chelz> geekyogi1: i think there might be something wrong with your hardware. at least one of these should work
[10:00] <chelz> igie: pastebin "ls -la /media/"
[10:00] <geekyogi1> chelz : hmm.. k..
[10:00] <chelz> geekyogi1: if you have a local Linux Users Group you could try bringing it to one of their meetings
[10:01] <jack5463> What is this telling me on start up? Adding client to server's list failed, CORBA error: IDL:omg.org/CORBA/COMM_FAILURE:1.0

[10:02] <geekyogi1> chelz : yeah.. I'd surely do tat..! :) Thanks a lot for your help... we tried our best..
[10:03] <chelz> geekyogi1: yeah i'm sorry. just if nothing boots, and really nothing, then there's gotta be a hardware issue. it's definitely not your cdrom drive or anything
[10:03] <shawnboy> chelz: man says RSAAuthentication is option for sshd_config but says default is "yes." :(  Well, maybe I'll try adding it explicitly anyway to try it.
[10:04] <chelz> igie: hmm i'm not sure. if going through ~/.bash_history doesn't work then you might have to backup+reinstall. although i admit i'm not good at these kinds of issues
[10:04] <chelz> shawnboy: do you use dsa with putty?
[10:04] <igie> chelz: I think i screwed up when I did "sudo chown root /media"
[10:05] <geekyogi1> chelz : k.  will go n kick the dell guys.! :P
[10:05] <shawnboy> chelz: no. rsa with putty. I'm going to boot into Xp and see if rsa works from Putty just for sake of curiosity. If I don't see you again (it's late),thanks a lot for your help. I'm grateful.
[10:05] <chelz> igie: actually all the stuff in my /media is owned by root, so that's normal
[10:05] <igie> chelz: all I was trying to do was get a folder shared, but I kept getting this error: "'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare add: cannot convert name "Everyone" to a SID. The connection was refused. Maybe smbd is not running."

[10:09] <ezrafree> hello
[10:09] <Owner> I have created an exception in PAM, so a single user can log-in without entering a pwd. If the user now logs out, or the session dies (and gets restarted), the "login screen" (DisplayManager) shows. All the user then needs to do, is click his name (the only one in the list) and his session authenticates correctly. Can I skip the "login screen" completely, instead?
[10:09] <ezrafree> can anyone tell me (or point me to an article online that tells me) how to get rid of the older kernels i'm given the option to boot into in grub?
[10:10] <[BT]Brendan> I just tried installing OSS and completely destroyed my audio. How can I get the original audio drivers back to how they were?
[10:10] <chelz> ezrafree: sudo apt-get install computer-janitor
[10:10] <ezrafree> chelz: thank you kindly
[10:10] <rosco> in UNetbootin, "lubuntu" would be considered which distro?  ubuntu, xubuntu,

[10:15] <meowbuntu> !intel
[10:15] <rosco> on usb.  chelz .  i'd like to write over it
[10:15] <rosco> write over the old one, chelz
[10:15] <alabd> Hello , hw to make linux-debian base/ubuntu not to ask password after waking up ?
[10:16] <chelz> ezrafree: if it doesn't pick them up then removing older linux-image s in synaptic will do it
[10:16] <meowbuntu> !audio
[10:16] <igie> chelz: thanks :) i'll try it tomorrow, thanks again.
[10:16] <chelz> alabd: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=298944
[10:16] <rosco> ah, it is xubuntu 8.  i'll leave it there and use it.  thanks anyway, chelz
[10:17] <chelz> igie: cya. have a test system to play around on is a good idea
[10:17] <chelz> rosco: i think unetbootin will write over it
[10:17] <[BT]Brendan> Nothing happens when the volume control is double clicked...
[10:17] <chelz> [BT]Brendan: righ click -> open volume control
[10:17] <rosco> i've iso for xubuntu 9.1 and for lubuntu 9.1.  hrmm
[10:18] <ezrafree> should i mark the old kernel versions for removal or for "complete removal"
[10:18] <[BT]Brendan> Thre is only right click > sound preferences
[10:18] <cWe_cRi> ah....
[10:18] <gatinho> oi
[10:18] <[BT]Brendan> and in  it there is no file menu
[10:18] <chelz> ezrafree: your choice. complete frees up more hdd space. it's also generally a good idea to leave one or two besides the latest for recovery purposes. also only make sure to remove ones you're sure are old
[10:18] <gatinho> oi
[10:18] <chelz> !hi | gatinho
[10:19] <gatinho> ola
[10:19] <pingfloyd> you generally should always leave the second most recent
[10:19] <gatinho> ho may god
[10:19] <pingfloyd> in case you run into a problem and need to revert
[10:19] <chelz> [BT]Brendan: restoring sound stuff can be done through the sound troubleshooting document

[10:19] <ezrafree> chelz: makes sense, thanks for all your help

[10:32] <bazhang> meowbuntu, he is dual booting

[10:33] <rww> charles__: put an & after the program name. e.g.: "firefox &"
[10:33] <hyperstream> meowbuntu, its grub2 related.
[10:33] <Dr_Willis> charles__:  see bash job controll docs..   -->   command  & ,   to launch to background   then use exit command to close the terminal ifyou want
[10:33] <freeride> free_loader i use ubuntu and this is a question according grub2 in ubuntu, so what should i do?
[10:33] <meowbuntu> oops sorry freeride ask your qwuestion
[10:33] <miha> nany idea how to use xvidtune or something to change size/position of desktop, it says "Unable to query monitor info " .. also http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/3694/
[10:33] <chelz> charles__: if you close the terminal &, it will close the program. to keep it running you need to use something like gnu screen or dtach. you might try pressing alt+f2 and running stuff that way
[10:33] <miha> some user on local ubuntu forum asks how to have same position in windows and ubuntu

[10:34] <freeride> meowbuntu i installed win7 but grub2 doesn't launch it, i know how to fix it in grub but grub2 installed

[10:34] <mawst> so what is it then apt-get search <blah>?
[10:34] <meowbuntu> freeride, windoes needs to be firs before ubuntu
[10:34] <chelz> mawst: add the repos then you can use synaptic
[10:34] <meowbuntu> firs = first
[10:35] <chelz> freeride: you could try pastebinning your grub.conf and "fdisk -l" output
[10:35] <charles__> thanks for the help so far, guys

[10:36] <meowbuntu> freeride, keepasking here but also google "how to install ubuntu 9.10 and windows 7"

[10:37] <hyperstream> abhijit, go to the game website and download it. its off topic
[10:37] <abhijit> soreau & hyperstream because whn i clik on download they say this game is not available for this os
[10:37] <charles__> that's fine, mainly i just don't like having a dozen terminals open while i'm doing stuff sith root privledges, so at least beign able to run several things from one terminal window will help

[10:47] <miha> chelz google says xvditune and xrandr don't mix :D
[10:47] <miha> so grandr would be welcome, right? :D
[10:47] <hyperstream> Dantonic, just googling around on the topic, I had a similar situation here; try right-clicking on a text file in Nautilus and choose "Properties" and changing the default preferred program there. That's what finally worked in my case. (different application, perhaps same process?)
[10:48] <Dantonic> hyperstream, ok let me try thanks
[10:48] <chelz> freeride: do these: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Dual-booting
[10:48] <charles__> should i use "gksudo gedit" or will just "sudo gedit" suffice?
[10:49] <eviltoaster> hi, i added an nfs share to my fstab but it does not mount at bootup.. if i do mount -a everything works :S
[10:49] <rww> ubottu: gksudo | charles__
[10:49] <chelz> miha: worth a shot
[10:49] <fornix> charles__, both work. thats what i observed
[10:49] <rww> charles__: in other words, use gksudo :)
[10:49] <fornix> gksudo just gives u a graphical password menu. sudo will giv u a prompt command. i think thats the only difference. i may be wrong
[10:50] <rww> fornix: there's a link in the ubottu factoid above with more information.
[10:50] <charles__> fair enough, it's a habit i had been in, i was just wondering if i was indulging in overkill or not :D
[10:50] <chelz> fornix: there's a bit more to it than that
[10:50] <Isy> hello!
[10:50] <chelz> charles__: better safe than sorry
[10:50] <chelz> !hi | Isy
[10:50] <fornix> rww, yes.. looking at it. i myself never used gksudo :P

[10:53] <alabd> hello , is there any driver for this dail up modem > Creative Modem Blaster V.90 PCI DI5655
[10:53] <hyperstream> Dantonic, nps, thank google :D
[10:53] <boss_mc> zetheroo: are all the computers in the same workgroup?
[10:53] <zetheroo> using Ubuntu for over 4 years and still cannot get this sharing thing working properly
[10:53] <zetheroo>  boss_mc: how would I check that?
[10:54] <Dantonic> hyperstream, just out of curiosity, what did you type in google to find that? cause I searched as well
[10:54] <Dantonic> rww, also thanks
[10:54] <Dr_Willis> zetheroo:  try entering the ip of the server instead of the host/machine name.. also try entering the full path to the share.
[10:54] <chelz> !smb | zetheroo
[10:54] <boss_mc> zetheroo: on windows right click on 'My Computer' and hit properties, on linux check /etc/samba/smb.conf

[10:54] <Dr_Willis> zetheroo:  ive had some issues where i had to edit teh hosts file to get the names/ips right
[10:55] <Dantonic> ah hehe cool... thanks again hyperstream
[10:55] <zetheroo> so all in all sharing data over network is not fluid in Ubuntu ... right!?
[10:55] <ae86-drifter_> wats a good kernel for use with a server that constantly running
[10:55] <chelz> zetheroo: should work fine. just doing stuff through properties
[10:56] <hyperstream> Dantonic, nps man :)
[10:56] <zetheroo> i should be able to right-click a folder and share it ... period ... but it does not work like that it seems
[10:56] <chelz> ae86-drifter_: default ubuntu server kernel should do fine
[10:56] <zetheroo> chelz: been through that hundreds of times ... sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't
[10:56] <chelz> zetheroo: well troubleshoot if you care to find out why
[10:56] <jefimenko> my sound works with alsa (i.e. when i use aplay or "mplayer -ao alsa"), but i don't hear anything through pulse. any ideas?
[10:56] <zetheroo> extremely hit and miss
[10:56] <Dr_Willis> zetheroo:  if your workgroups are not the same it can cause issues.. windows firewall can cause issues
[10:56] <ae86-drifter_> chelz, tht wat im usin
[10:56] <hyperstream> !pulse | jefimenko
[10:57] <Dr_Willis> zetheroo:  ive also nioticved that windows is a bit weird about seeing shares/machines with my newest router. Not sure what the deal is with it.

[10:57] <chelz> !LTS | ae86-drifter_
[10:57] <freeride> chelz doesn't work. win7 is in the boot menu but doesn't boot. I had a problem while installing windows partion was for example on hd0 but then in ubuntu it became hd1. It's easy to fix in grub but not in grub2. so that's the problem
[10:57] <zetheroo> Dr_Willis: but this is not even with Windows machines ... even with other Ubuntu machines its super erratic
[10:57] <Dr_Willis> zetheroo:  sometimes the xp and Vista box see each other (wired) and some times they dont
[10:57] <hyperstream> zetheroo, i was the same as you until last week, i have the perfect guide bookmarked
[10:57] <Dr_Willis> zetheroo:  so ive found shareing with windows just as eratic
[10:57] <hyperstream> zetheroo, give me a sec mate
[10:57] <chelz> freeride: you did osprobe?
[10:57] <zetheroo> hyperstream: ok
[10:58] <ae86-drifter_> im usin 9.10 server edition
[10:58] <Dr_Willis> zetheroo:  i went throgh each box and made sure their hosts/ips were right.. and set teh router to reserve the ips for the righ machines. (or set them to be static) and ive not had much problems sence
[10:58] <zetheroo> Dr_Willis; I understand if maybe from Linux to Windows it can be a bit iffy ... but Linux to Linux? ... that should be a sinch
[10:58] <hyperstream> zetheroo, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202605
[10:58] <Dr_Willis> zetheroo:  you would think windows to windows would work also wouldent you.. but again.. my HOSTS/IP#'s seem to been the main issue for all the m achines
[10:58] <freeride> chelz i did
[10:58] <hyperstream> zetheroo, thats for linux - windows ;/
[10:59] <hyperstream> zetheroo, works similar for ubuntu to ubuntu tho
[10:59] <zetheroo> Dr_Willis: yeah ... that is not at all a user-friendly thing to have to tell people that they have to do to share data on the network
[10:59] <chelz> freeride: and ubuntu works fine?
[10:59] <hyperstream> zetheroo, i set my main pc up(its dynamic but i still did the wins thing sorted it all out for me)
[10:59] <Dr_Willis> zetheroo:  ive had to fight with windows only networks as well.
[10:59] <zetheroo> hyperstream: ok thanks
[10:59] <jefimenko> hyperstream: thanks, but i know what pulseaudio is an i have been searching and working on this for a few days to no avail :(
[10:59] <freeride> chelz oh yeah, ubuntu works, did you mean why do i want win7? :D
[11:00] <zetheroo>  Dr_Willis: I know ... but I have never had to do static IP addressing with Windows XP for instance ...
[11:00] <chelz> freeride: no, just curious that grub2 doesn't work just for 7
[11:00] <hyperstream> jefimenko, pastebin your asound.rc please
[11:00] <hyperstream> jefimenko, asound.conf *
[11:00] <freeride> chelz but grub worked great, should i downgrade grub?
[11:01] <Dr_Willis> zetheroo:  becasue with windows theres some service thats supposed to let windows machines see the network and map hostname->ip properly. (wins server i think) that gets confused.. and the whole network gets confused
[11:01] <atlef_> freeride: have you tried sudo update-grub
[11:01] <chelz> freeride: it looks like it's pointing to the right place if 7 is on sda. i guess you could try downgrading
[11:01] <freeride> atlef_ i did
[11:01] <Dr_Willis> zetheroo:   then you get into multi-wins servers on thelan fighting.. :)
[11:01] <jefimenko> hyperstream: ~/.asoundrc ?
[11:01] <Isy> hello, I have a question to ubuntu can someone help me ?
[11:01] <atlef_> ok

[11:01] <Isy> so I want to take ubuntu as full system
[11:01] <Dr_Willis> zetheroo:  samba is not a 'trivial' thing. :) as much as people want to belive it is...
[11:01] <hyperstream> jefimenko, well that site takes you through the procedure or setting it up ?
[11:01] <Isy> is that possible ?
[11:01] <freeride> chelz how to change sda to sdb in grub2?
[11:01] <atlef_> freeride: there is also some info here:

[11:02] <Isy> deleting vista and let the laptop run with only ubuntu
[11:02] <Dr_Willis> zetheroo:  for linux to linux - use NFS it will be MUCH faster
[11:02] <atlef_> freeride: there is also some info here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2
[11:02] <freeride> atlef_ where?
[11:02] <freeride> ))
[11:02] <zetheroo> well my workgroup is "WORKGROUP" so that is not the issue
[11:02] <Isy> ... someone read my issue ?
[11:02] <freeride> atlef_ my english is too bad for this :)
[11:02] <zetheroo> Dr_Willis: NFS? ... is that a whole 'nother thing to configure in text files etc?
[11:03] <Dr_Willis> zetheroo:  also check out the smbtree and findsmb commands and some of the 'using samba book' to see other trouble shooting commands
[11:03] <Isy> someone from Germany here too ?
[11:03] <Dr_Willis> !nfs
[11:03] <enterneo> how to install JDK 6 (not OpenJDK) on 9.10?
[11:03] <k3rl0u4rn> hello people, I have a smart alert on a 500 Gb drive and I have bought a new 640 Gb driver yesterday, can I clone the small disk on the big one withtout problem ?
[11:03] <Dr_Willis> zetheroo:  i can get a nfs server setup in about 5 min. :) and the speed.. well i wont say its 2x as fast as samba.. but it IS faster
[11:03] <k3rl0u4rn> I do have read errors on the first one, 11 blocks were partially written
[11:03] <chelz> freeride: try this: http://erickoo.wordpress.com/2009/06/14/how-to-add-vista-partition-to-grub-2-ubuntu-9-10-karmic-koala/
[11:03] <k3rl0u4rn> also, is it safe to clone a disk which contains a swap partition used by the live cd ?
[11:03] <zetheroo> Dr_Willis: this is interesting ... by default the WINS Support is disabled in smb.conf
[11:03] <atlef> freeride: sorry to hear that. wait and repeat the question
[11:04] <Dr_Willis> zetheroo:  as it should be i imagine,
[11:04] <zetheroo> Dr_Willis: yeah?
[11:04] <erUSUL> enterneo: install sun-java6-jdk
[11:04] <chelz> freeride: only have:    set root=(hd0,2)
[11:04] <Dr_Willis> zetheroo:  i enabled it on ONE linux box.. and it seemed to have helped.. but i also edited all my hosts file
[11:04] <chelz> k3rl0u4rn: best to disable that swap
[11:04] <Dr_Willis> zetheroo:  so in theory there no wins being used
[11:04] <enterneo> erUSUL, quick question, why does not JDK come up on software center, when I try to search from there?
[11:04] <iflema> zetheroo NFS is native to linux samba not.
[11:05] <k3rl0u4rn> chelz: ok for the swap question
[11:05] <jack5463> In Places I have folders "version="1.0"?>". When i attempt to open it i get an error message stating "could not locate '&lt;?xml'". where did this come from? How do i correct the it?
[11:05] <freeride> chelz thanks a lot, man. I'll try do my self. Thanks for great help ))
[11:05] <erUSUL> enterneo: no idea sorry i do not use it (the software coentre) much

[11:05] <meowbuntu> hi whats the minimum install size for ubuntu 9.10
[11:06] <hyperstream> zetheroo, as i said i have samba setup on all my linux/windows boxes, they all share with each other, including the printer :)
[11:06] <erUSUL> !specs | meowbuntu
[11:06] <hyperstream> linux boxes*, windows is using its own sharing stuff
[11:06] <erUSUL> !minimal | meowbuntu
[11:06] <zetheroo> hyperstream: and you did what was in that link you sent me?
[11:06] <hyperstream> zetheroo, yep
[11:06] <mawst> Where's grub.conf? heh
[11:07] <jack5463> zzzzzzzz In Places I have folders "version="1.0"?>". When i attempt to open it i get an error message stating "could not locate '&lt;?xml'". where did this come from? How do i correct the it?
[11:07] <zetheroo> hyperstream: does that have to be done on all Linux machines?
[11:07] <hyperstream> zetheroo, setup one box as the wins server, and the rest up as clients
[11:07] <erUSUL> !grub2 | mawst
[11:07] <zetheroo> hyperstream: it's a heck of a big post :P
[11:07] <hyperstream> zetheroo, samba has to be install on all machines yes (to share from each machine)
[11:07] <Dr_Willis> zetheroo:  ive also found that on the network when i do connect to a share. i always bookmark the thing (under windows or linux) and it seems to rember it when i go back to the bookmark even if the share browser feature dosent see it. (under windows or linux) go figure...
[11:07] <hyperstream> zetheroo, doesnt that that long to do tho :)
[11:07] <chelz> hyperstream: did you find that guide?
[11:08] <meowbuntu> !alternate cd
[11:08] <hyperstream> chelz, yes, via google last week
[11:08] <hyperstream> chelz, pulling out my hair for days with samba lol
[11:08] <chelz> hyperstream: wait did you link to it? i don't see the link

[11:09] <chelz> hyperstream: link plz
[11:10] <alabd> hello , is there any driver for this dail up modem > Creative Modem Blaster V.90 PCI DI5655
[11:11] <erUSUL> !winmodem | alabd
[11:11] <ikonia> alabd: that's listed as "win modem"
[11:11] <alabd> erUSUL:  please first read question
[11:12] <alabd> ikonia: you mean it does not have driver
[11:12] <alabd> How to scan a rang of ip to see which one is live ?
[11:12] <hyperstream> LOL
[11:12] <ikonia> alabd: read the link that erUSUL sent you
[11:12] <alabd> ikonia: read before
[11:12] <ikonia> alabd: ok, so what's the problem ?
[11:12] <chelz> alabd: try to set it up and you'll find out if there is one
[11:12] <hyperstream> too funny... lol
[11:13] <chelz> alabd: look into nmap for scanning
[11:13] <adrian__> #ubuntu-artwork on irc.FreeNode.net.
[11:13] <erUSUL> alabd: i read it. a pci modem is almost 99% of the time a winmodem that needs special drivers hard to find and use in linux. the link i gave you have information on how to proceed
[11:13] <rww> adrian__: type /join #ubuntu-artwork
[11:14] <eino> how do I create a shortcut that opens two programs at once?
[11:14] <erUSUL> alabd: to scan nets use nmap
[11:14] <ikonia> erUSUL: write a shell script and link to that
[11:15] <erUSUL> eino: make a script that runs the programs make a shortcut to the script
[11:15] <BlueEagle> erusul: You would have to create a shortcut to a shell script that runs the two programs either simultaneously or one after another.
[11:15] <erUSUL> ikonia: ty ;)
[11:15] <zetheroo> hyperstream: what really bothers me about this stuff is that I can recall having samba working over the network with Windows and Linux machines and never doing any of this config stuff .... so I don't understand how it can sometimes work great and other times just go nowhere ... if this configuration is really needed for it to work then without the configuration it should not work across the board .. right!? Makes no sense that it would work and then not ..
[11:15] <erUSUL> BlueEagle: ty too lol
[11:15] <BlueEagle> erusul: Happy tab-complete day. ;)
[11:15] <ikonia> erUSUL: sorry - I'm clearly too dumb today
[11:16] <erUSUL> ikonia: tab complete is adictive... i allways forget to use more than one letter too XD
[11:16] <ikonia> zetheroo: what's the issue ?
[11:16] <hyperstream> zetheroo, not sure mate, i had a hell of a past few years trying to get it functioning, and many hours googling recently.
[11:16] <hyperstream> afk guys
[11:16] <zetheroo> ikonia: just trying to figure out why Samba is so erratic :)
[11:17] <ikonia> zetheroo: in what way ?
[11:17] <mika__> Hi, I came from the gentoo world... now I'm playing with (k)ubuntu, but I've a question for you. Why the shell colors are so inexistent? I mean, it's all white, is there a way to config it with a nicer way or should I copy the gentoo dir colors file?
[11:17] <chelz> zetheroo: samba is all about working on reversing a black box. you'll never have trouble with samba between two linux computers, it's always an issue with a non-samba system. usually windows.
[11:17] <zetheroo> ikonia: well just trying to do a simple folder share
[11:17] <ikonia> mika__: the shell uses colour, try ls --color
[11:17] <rubymonk> Hello everyone, When my daugther messed with my computer, she seem to have disabled the applications at startup (nm-applet for example...) Any help to re-enable it please?
[11:17] <chelz> mika__: that's from gentoo's .bashrc
[11:17] <Dr_Willis> mika__:  you mean the colors for the ls command? or what exactly?
[11:17] <zetheroo> chelz: nope .. that is my point ... i have the same issues with Linux machines
[11:18] <chelz> gentoo's shell looks like this: http://dev.gentoo.org/~dberkholz/terminal.png
[11:18] <BlueEagle> zetheroo: I wouldn't be suprised if historically the default config has been something that works but, due to security conciderations, this has been changed. The way it is now you need to know what you are doing when setting up a network service. That is a good thing.
[11:18] <chelz> zetheroo: eh try NFS then
[11:18] <ikonia> zetheroo: I've always found samba very solid, I'm surprised you're struggling. I find ubuntu's config tools very flakey, and don't use them, but directly controlling the samba.conf works fine normally
[11:18] <rubymonk> Sounds like no applications defined in gnome-applications-properties is starting up
[11:19] <zetheroo> ikonia: I suppose one has to know how to control smb.conf
[11:19] <zetheroo> ikonia: I just got gadmin-samba ... trying it out now
[11:19] <ikonia> zetheroo: yeah, if you can work with that, I promise no problems, the ubuntu tools.....for me are not worth it
[11:19] <alabd> erUSUL: thanks How to scan a rang of ip to see which one is live with nmap
[11:20] <ikonia> alabd: how big a range
[11:20] <Owner> is there no way to configure AllowLogoutActions in the latest gdm? what?!
[11:20] <alabd> ikonia: 0-255
[11:20] <Owner> ... amongst others !
[11:20] <erUSUL> alabd: install zenmap (a nmap gui) should be easier
[11:20] <BlueEagle> rubymonk: Now you know why she should have her own non-sudo-enabled-account on your computer. ;)
[11:20] <ikonia> alabd: depends what you define by active, services and firewalls will make that tricky to be for certain
[11:21] <chelz> alabd: http://nmap.org/book/toc.html
[11:21] <Dr_Willis> With samba  - it PAYS to read teh using samba book and other books on the topic. thers some nifty tools that are easially overlooked.
[11:21] <alabd> chelz:  ikonia erUSUL do you know command line  ?
[11:21] <rubymonk> BlueEagle: Well, she certainly used some keyboard shortcut... I dunno, she's 2 years and half...
[11:21] <chelz> alabd: you need to read to learn command line
[11:22] <alabd> chelz:  yes humble can read and can ask
[11:22] <userdiniel> met malem lagi ngap
[11:22] <chelz> alabd: reading is more dignified
[11:22] <zetheroo> oh damn ... gadmin-samba wrote over my original samba file ... argh
[11:23] <chelz> zetheroo: heh the fun of gui tools. helps to cp orig.conf orig.conf.1
[11:23] <mika__> Dr_Willis: ls, but not just that, also the current user/host, the init process, and probably something else...
[11:24] <chelz> mika__: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=486846 - this is part of it

[11:26] <Niku_baiviku> hi there
[11:26] <mika__> I've another question for you. I'm looking at the server edition. Is there something like landscape, but free? (as I'm setting up my home server for some try I cannot afford to pay for it :( )
[11:26] <ikonia> mika__: look at puppet
[11:26] <chelz> bi_21_chi: http://www.ubuntu.com/support/local#indonesian
[11:27] <silv3r_m00n> how to mount a cd and play the game........its a windows game
[11:27] <silv3r_m00n> ??
[11:27] <erUSUL> mika__: why you need something like landscape for a single server?
[11:27] <chelz> geekyogi: whaaaaat. that is so wacky. how did you figure it out?
[11:27] <chelz> !wine | silv3r_m00n
[11:27] <Niku_baiviku> new to ubuntu, just droped in from a crappy XPrience
[11:27] <ikonia> silv3r_m00n: do a little research on "wine"
[11:27] <geekyogi> chelz: trial n error. :P
[11:27] <erUSUL> mika__: maybe you are refering to something like ebox or webmin (not supported) ?
[11:27] <jefimenko> my sound stopped working recently for normal ubuntu apps (totem, rhythmbox, etc.) but I was able to play sounds using alsa directly (i.e. "mplayer -ao alsa somefile.avi"). i've been trying the guides online for days now and cannot seem to resolve this sound issue. could anyone help me out? i'm not a novice user so I can paste you cfg file information easily
[11:27] <Seveas> mika__, puppet or chef should be able to help you synchronize configuration. Nagios and cacti can do monitoring and graphing
[11:28] <spekko> where can i get codecs for ubuntu?
[11:28] <silv3r_m00n> I am already using wine , but how to mount those cd iso ?
[11:28] <Seveas> !codecs | spekko
[11:28] <spekko> thanx
[11:28] <Seveas> silv3r_m00n, sudo mount -o loop /path/to/iso /path/to/mountdir
[11:28] <Seveas> !iso > silv3r_m00n
[11:28] <geekyogi> chelz: tat RAM slot had the problem...
[11:28] <mika__> erUSUL: I don't know, probably because having a web interface is faster than checking all the stuff directly from the shell :)
[11:28] <chelz> geekyogi: ehh sure it's the slot? not the stick? you could try swapping the ram
[11:28] <erUSUL> !ebox | mika__
[11:28] <mika__> Seveas: ok, thank you, I'll look at them
[11:29] <chelz> mika__: there are a lot of ways to manage a server, webmin also
[11:29] <geekyogi> chelz:tried tat.. it's the slot..
[11:29] <Seveas> mika__, ah, if you want 'just a webinterface', erUSUL gave the correct answer :)
[11:29] <chelz> geekyogi: ah alright. does it work in another slot?
[11:29] <mika__> erUSUL: nice.. :)
[11:29] <geekyogi> chelz: yeah
[11:30] <chelz> geekyogi: yeah something about that just made it corrupt stuff. eh well. strange that it cropped up now. you may have a dying mobo, capacitors going out or something. be sure to backup your data ;)

[11:47] <zetheroo> Seveas: ok I found it on my other Ubuntu machine ... but it asks for a password and then after i put it in it says Unable to mount location ... Failed to mount Windows share
[11:48] <zetheroo> Seveas: but there is also a "public" share and that one works fine ...
[11:48] <zetheroo> Seveas: why would that be?
[11:48] <Seveas> zetheroo, did you type in your linux username/password? If so, try the smbpasswd command on your linux box to make sure samba knows your linux password. Then try again.
[11:48] <mikunos> Dr_Willis this is my conf file http://pastebin.com/d13b494bf
[11:48] <mikunos> seems to me that it is the same
[11:49] <atlef> mikunos: this file should only be used as a reference i think
[11:49] <mikunos> Dr_Willis maybe you can show me how have I edit it
[11:49] <mikunos> atlef what do you mean with it?
[11:49] <zetheroo> Seveas: is there a way I can make a link/map this shared folder?
[11:50] <Seveas> zetheroo, you can make a bookmark to it in linux or a drive mapping in windows

[12:46] <mikunos> atlef look my conf http://bildr.no/view/583340
[12:47] <richthegeek> renamon: probably your monitor is broken or a cable is loose. Try it from LiveCD or Windows
[12:47] <basty> Hi
[12:47] <renamon> could it just be cold?
[12:47] <atlef> mikunos: so it only detect one monitor?
[12:47] <mikunos> atlef exactly

[12:49] <atlef> mikunos: you might want to try the Fn keys
[12:49] <renamon> should i ajust them?]
[12:49] <richthegeek> renamon: do the following in this order. 1. Check the cables are all plugged in. 2. If you have a second cable, try that instead. 3. Try booting into Windows or a LiveCD environment and see if it is still broken
[12:49] <og01> when i ssh into my box screen auto runs and attaches when i log in as one user, and it doesnt with a second... how to i have it done for the second user?
[12:49] <richthegeek> bazhang: Am being. No reason I can't make a joke occasionally to pass the time.
[12:50] <richthegeek> bazhang: further more, I answered his question with the joke.
[12:50] <Welshy-Rob> anyone know of software that converts .ogv to .fly or .avi?
[12:50] <renamon> its not broken just green. i can see my programs fine but the color is green everywhere
[12:50] <bazhang> richthegeek, jokes in #ubuntu-offtopic  support here.
[12:50] <phek> og01, probably set it up on your .bashrc
[12:50] <og01> phek: i'll have a look thanks
[12:50] <richthegeek> bazhang: having a go at one joke from me instead of vitor for flooding? Priorities much?
[12:50] <bazhang> Welshy-Rob, flv? ffmpeg mencoder
[12:51] <richthegeek> renamon: that sounds like a faulty cable or broken monitor
[12:51] <richthegeek> renamon: check the cable is plugged in, and that the cable itself is not faulty
[12:51] <ouyes> bazhang, richthegeek  is it a joke, or an obvious answer anyone can make
[12:51] <renamon> hmm well i ajusted the color properties and it just fixtd itself so i guess that was it
[12:51] <Welshy-Rob> bazhang, is that a reppo? or is it in the software centre?
[12:51] <richthegeek> renamon: ok
[12:51] <bazhang> Welshy-Rob, its a command line app

[12:54] <phek> og01, ~/.profile, /etc/bashrc, /etc/profile, or maybe even screen is your login shell (which would mean /etc/passwd)
[12:54] <epinky> vitor: try "sudo killall -HUP gdm"
[12:55] <og01> phek: thanks, i'll look at them all
[12:55] <quietone> Welshy-Rob: If haven't already, check if Winff does what you want
[12:55] <richthegeek> Welshy-rob: alternatively try    mencoder INPUTFILE -oac mp3lame -ovc xvid -xvidencopts pass=1 -o OUTPUTFILE
[12:55] <atlef> renamon: what error message do you get
[12:56] <og01> phek: fyi it was in the ~/.profile
[12:56] <Welshy-Rob> richthegeek,  okay ill give it ago
[12:56] <phek> og01, sorry, the /etc files
[12:56] <vitor> epinky killall?
[12:56] <phek> og01, oh ok
[12:56] <renamon> E: error of some kind.
[12:56] <phek> og01, was going to say it wouldn't be the /etc file
[12:56] <pokoko222> how to setup remote connection from my computer that has ubuntu to another pc at my home that has windows?
[12:56] <epinky> vitor: yes, that should restart your gdm
[12:57] <renamon> E: Invalid operation fretsonfire
[12:57] <richthegeek> pokoko222: trying to view the Windows from Ubuntu?
[12:57] <pokoko222> richthegeek yeah and to control that computer from mine
[12:57] <pokoko222> will i have to setup ubuntu there too?
[12:57] <atlef> renamon: try: sudo apt-get install fretsonfire
[12:58] <Isy> sebseseb
[12:58] <vitor> epinky: thank u, I try
[12:58] <atlef> renamon: and pastebin the output
[12:58] <fixer_33> hi i've got a problem with php on ubuntu
[12:58] <renamon> wheres the pastebin?
[12:58] <phek> pokoko222, set up remote desktop on your windows machine and run rdesktop on the linux machine
[12:58] <fixer_33> i can't use query method from MDB2 library
[12:59] <richthegeek> pokoko222: vaguely its as follows. enable remote desktop on Windows. Forward port 3389 through your router. Run rdesktop from Ubuntu
[12:59] <atlef> !pastebin | renamon
[12:59] <phek> pokoko222, or set up vnc server on the windows machine and connect using vncviewer on the linux machine
[12:59] <Isy> sebsebseb
[13:00] <richthegeek> pokoko222: I guess that the main issue will be port-forwarding? Open your router on the Windows network and there should be a menu option for it
[13:00] <vitor> epinky: wrote - gdm:process no kill
[13:00] <rethus> have the twinkle-phone.
[13:00] <pokoko222> instead of rdesktop isnt something else with GUI?
[13:00] <rethus> how can i press digits if i call
[13:00] <rethus> menas a phone-voice say... enter pin..  how can i press it on twinkle
[13:00] <BigMike``> you also can set up vnc on the windows computer and in ubuntu and use a web page with java - ipaddress
[13:00] <renamon> i posted it and its still not working
[13:00] <rethus> i didn't find a way to do it
[13:00] <richthegeek> pokoko222: yes, search the software centre for it. The terminal works best though, you can customise ports and res and such alot easier
[13:01] <BigMike``> ipaddress:5800
[13:01] <qtk> hi, how can I set root ?:>
[13:01] <phek> pokoko222, rdesktop will display a "gui" (your windows desktop).  it's just ran from the command line.  not sure if there's a gui interface for rdesktop though
[13:01] <epinky> vitor: ok, try "/etc/init.d/gdm start"
[13:01] <richthegeek> qtk: how can you become root whilst in a terminal?
[13:01] <epinky> vitor: no sudo concerned just "/etc/init.d/gdm start" and enter
[13:01] <pokoko222> any tutorial on rdekstop? i dont think i can handle port forwarding and stuff on my own.
[13:02] <richthegeek> qtk: prepend "sudo" for one command, or run "sudo su root" to become root
[13:02] <renamon> help?
[13:02] <qtk> ok, I try
[13:02] <atlef> renamon: just enter a name and paste into the box what you want to show and press paste and paste the link you get here

[13:14] <stib> hello all. How do I get my machine name to appear on the lan (with windows and mac machines as well). I've set netbios name in my smb.conf, but I still can't see the machine when I try to ssh or ping it by name, only by its IP address. I can access shares and they appear in the mac OS machines with the machine name, but trying to type in a samba address of the form smb://user@machinename.local fai
[13:14] <stib> ls, so I have to use the numeric IP
[13:15] <th0r> stib, in order for others to be able to use your computer name as you describe, it will have to be entered in the hosts file for each computer, unless you have dns on your network.
[13:16] <epinky> asmob: you want to boot in text mode?
[13:16] <_pr0t0type_> I've noticed in Ubuntu when packages are installed there is always a "trigger" thingy.  Can anyone explain what this is in the context of Ubuntu?
[13:16] <stib> hmm. Was working before with gnome, and now it's not with a xubuntu install. I'm thinking my router does the DNS
[13:16] <asmob> epinky, no i want install newes nvidia driver
[13:17] <pokoko222> i write the ip in vncviewer to connect to server but it just stops
[13:17] <pokoko222> does it take a lot time to connect?
[13:17] <valentinex> any xubnutu user here
[13:17] <pokoko222> seems like it blocked
[13:17] <cycrosism> cool story bro
[13:17] <epinky> asmob: then chose recovery mode from boot menu
[13:17] <atlef> xubuntu | valentinex
[13:17] <asmob> epinky, how i can launch boot menu?
[13:17] <valentinex> i have installed a new sound card but working in xp, showing in sound device selection in xubuntu but not giving any sound
[13:18] <epinky> asmob: reboot :)
[13:18] <kristian_> tried to change the directory by using the absolute and relative pathname - both ways do not work - why?
[13:18] <atlef> !xubuntu | valentinex
[13:18] <asmob> epinky, yes but what key is to start boot menu?
[13:18] <maozudo> bom dia
[13:18] <th0r> stib, http://pastebin.com/d5941014e
[13:18] <th0r> stib, mother and dopey were computers on my internal network

[13:20] <atlef> *question
[13:21] <kristian_> xubuntu uses the Xfce environment
[13:21] <cycrosism> ikr
[13:21] <POC|Farmer> hi, i updated from 8.10 to 9.04 and after the required restart (evrything until this worked) cant boot anymore. i get from "reading files needed to boot" to "loading hardware drivers". the last wont complete, i waited for 15 minutes. after that i tried different kernels in grub, 2.6.28/27/24 has the same problem...
[13:21] <gregor_> xubuntu uses a mix between gnome and xfce
[13:21] <kristian_> anyone got a suggestion about the cd command?
[13:22] <iflema> !ask | atlef
[13:22] <riot_le> i have here a client and wants to create the pbuilder enviroment but i get a debootstrap error, i did'nt found anything to that issue
[13:22] <kristian_> xubunut is resource-saving and therefore better for slower devices
[13:22] <th0r> kristian_, is this a new dir or have you used it before?
[13:22] <luist> how do i check the space occupied in my partition?
[13:22] <rosco> ?  i'm editing a grub file from grub4dos.  there is an internal folder, "grub."  it  has four files.  Makefile.am, Makefile.in, main.c and asmstub.c.  should i move those four files inside c:/grub4dos/grub?  i'll rename the folder c:/grub.  wouldn't want c:/grub/grub
[13:23] <valentinex> nobody answering me in xubuntu channel, so how do you do to select your new installed PCI sound card as default sound device in ubuntu?
[13:23] <epinky> luist: "df -h"
[13:23] <kristian_> it's a dir inside my /home directory
[13:23] <luist> thanks
[13:23] <qtk> which command Can I create file in directory /var/www ?:>
[13:23] <gregor_> df -ah = better
[13:24] <atlef> sudo add-apt-repository ppa:

[13:25] <qtk> thx ;]
[13:25] <rosco> anyone:  question;  when creating c:/grub, do i leave the folder c:/grub/grub?  or move its contents to c:/grub?
[13:26] <kristian_> used the su command and it gives me an authentification error.
[13:27] <cycrosism> kristian_: cool
[13:27] <asmob> epinky, how now i can check if it works..?

[13:30] <pokoko222> how to open port 5900 in ubuntu
[13:30] <qtk> 've created a file in / var / www but I can't edit, why ?:<
[13:30] <Dr_Willis> pokoko222:  ports are not closed by default.
[13:30] <Dr_Willis> pokoko222:  unkless you installed some firewall/rules
[13:30] <Dr_Willis> !firewall
[13:30] <asmob> epinky, video
[13:30] <rosco> anyone:  question;  when creating c:/grub, do i leave the folder c:/grub/grub?  or move its contents to c:/grub?
[13:30] <pokoko222> Dr_Willis well i would rather check manually, how?
[13:30] <kristian_> cycrosism sudo doesn't work either.
[13:30] <zilkomaa> Is there a way to speed up my 64bit ubuntu 9.10, take all advantage of my processor and ubuntu
[13:31] <cycrosism> kristian_: sudo passwd ?
[13:31] <cycrosism> (without the ?)
[13:31] <Dr_Willis> pokoko222:  thers some commands.. you could do 'sudo iptables -L ' and see if theres any rules
[13:31] <epinky> asmob: don't know if you're using propietary or open source, ATI or NVIDIA but "lshw" or "lsmod" should show som details, alse check on system -> hardware drivers
[13:31] <kristian_> password worked, but the command had no effect at all.
[13:31] <Dr_Willis> pokoko222:  but there are no default rules.. no ports are 'closed' by default. of course if a service is not running on a port.. its not technically open.
[13:32] <qtk> Can even create a new file in the directory immediately containing ?
[13:32] <qtk> Sorry for bad english ;/
[13:32] <cycrosism> its not closed its not open
[13:32] <asmob> epinky, i run Nvidi from thei homepage 190 and at hardware drivers still show 185 recomended...
[13:32] <rosco> okay, i've another question:  i was told about an fstab file.  where is it?  part of grub files?
[13:32] <Dr_Willis>  rosco  /etc/fstab
[13:32] <pokoko222> Dr_Willis yes they are closed all from installation
[13:32] <Dr_Willis> !fstab | rosco
[13:32] <Seveas> rosco, it lives in /etc/ and is not used by grub
[13:33] <dailystruggle> does anyone know why hulu won't stream in firefox??
[13:33] <Dr_Willis> pokoko222:  your defintion of the term closed is not what  most linux users use.  If you run ssh it uses port 22.. without ssh port 22 is techincally 'open' for use by anything wanting to use it.. but  its not blocked. so its not closed.
[13:33] <qtk> Can even create a new file in the directory immediately containing ?
[13:33] <Dr_Willis> dailystruggle:  its worked here in the past. the Huludesktop tool also worked.. but was always sluggish
[13:34] <Dr_Willis> dailystruggle:  not tried it lately
[13:34] <epinky> asmob: then I think it's propietary, you've got to activate them
[13:34] <zilkomaa> Has anyone had utorrent 2.0 working with wine?
[13:34] <kristian_> i can type cd /home and my directory occurs...
[13:34] <kristian_> going further isn't possible
[13:34] <sebsebseb> zilkomaa: it works, but there are better native programs
[13:34] <kristian_> cd /home/username doesn't work
[13:34] <dailystruggle> no it gives a message to check my connection like I have slow internet but my down is 25mb
[13:35] <zilkomaa> sebsebseb: Could u tell me couple?
[13:35] <Dr_Willis> dailystruggle:  hulu is working right here in firefox.
[13:35] <sebsebseb> !torrents > zilkomaa
[13:35] <dailystruggle> I think more an issue with firefox or user profile
[13:36] <dailystruggle> how do i create another u profile
[13:36] <Dr_Willis> dailystruggle:  the video just got real real jerky now.  right at the end.
[13:36] <dailystruggle> firefox
[13:36] <Dr_Willis> firefox --help
[13:36] <Dr_Willis> theres a --profile option i think
[13:36] <Seveas> firefox -ProfileManager
[13:37] <Seveas> firefox is 'special' and doesn't use standard option designators
[13:37] <Dr_Willis> curse those people who dont follow the --LongOption Standard. :)

[13:38] <Seveas> Dr_Willis, dunno about posix, but - for short and -- for lomg options is a gnu standard
[13:38] <Dr_Willis> zagrev:  play with compiz themes and settings
[13:38] <Seveas> maco_, try #catalyst on irc.perl.org

[13:43] <kristian_> when exaclty is the / used?
[13:44] <Seveas> kristian_, whenever the / is needed!
[13:44] <m_fulder> how do I see what packages I have installed on my ubuntu and remove some?
[13:44] <richthegeek> kristian: do you mean the directory / (root) or the character?
[13:44] <Seveas> m_fulder, with the synaptic package manager (gui) or dpkg and apt-get (command line)
[13:44] <richthegeek> m_fulder: System -> Administration -> Synaptic
[13:45] <m_fulder> "Unable to get exlusive lock" :S
[13:45] <richthegeek> close all other package management programs

[13:46] <m_fulder> I have nothing opened (though I controll my ubuntu comp through a viewr on wn7)
[13:46] <dailystruggle> maybe it is because the hulu is owned by fox
[13:46] <kristian_> how do i merge a .pdf with a .jpg or an .avi so that the latter both aren't corrupted and can be watched?
[13:46] <richthegeek> m_fulder: try re-opening the program, might be a temporary glitch
[13:46] <m_fulder> ok
[13:46] <m_fulder> nope still same error :(
[13:47] <richthegeek> kristian_: a zip file? Or do you mean as a way to hide both files from normal viewing?
[13:47] <richthegeek> m_fulder: try rebooting the computer
[13:47] <m_fulder> ok
[13:47] <kristian_> @richthegeek your latter assumption

[13:49] <Liquid-Silence> so flash is broken
[13:49] <Liquid-Silence> :(
[13:49] <IdleOne> dailystruggle: the isp won't be able to help you with hulu and much less with linux.

[13:50] <richthegeek> Liquid-Silence: I assume you've tried reinstalling it?
[13:50] <marlen> I am a beginner with linux..
[13:50] <richthegeek> kristian_: yes, the > pumps it into FILE3
[13:50] <alankila> richthegeek: won't work, the package name is wrong & that will only uninstall the metapackage, while the problem is with the actual packages that supply the files.
[13:50] <richthegeek> marlen: sorry, that was a terminal command. Press Alt+F2 and paste into there. Press "run as root" or "run as sudo" and run the command.
[13:50] <richthegeek> marlen: hold that thought
[13:51] <kristian_> @richthegeek - what's the difference between the cat and the paste command?
[13:51] <richthegeek> alankilla: perhaps suggest the right way to do it?
[13:51] <richthegeek> kristian_: the cat command is designed exactly for what you want to do
[13:51] <kemmotar> marlen: you want make a new installation of xubuntu?

[13:52] <zilkomaa> Daaaaaaaaaaamn i luuv this ubuntu
[13:52] <zilkomaa> best distro evah
[13:52] <limus14> fick deine mutter
[13:52] <opakavic> limus14: you gonna ban
[13:52] <alankila> richthegeek: no. It's too long and depends on what you specifically have installed, of course...
[13:52] <marlen> yes, but I have to uninstall first in order to have more space
[13:52] <opakavic> i created a usb startup ubuntu, but when i booted it, it says operating system missing
[13:52] <richthegeek> alankilla: base list on a pasteboard?
[13:52] <limus14> fickt eure eltern ihr hurensöhne
[13:53] <opakavic> what can i do
[13:53] <opakavic> is there a solution
[13:53] <Liquid-Silence> hmmm
[13:53] <alankila> richthegeek: the metapackage is kubuntu-desktop for kubuntu, but as I said, uninstalling that removes no actual packages.
[13:53] <Liquid-Silence> no one plays Enemy Teritory anymore?
[13:53] <elky> limus14, please don't break the channel rules. "/msg ubottu guidelines" please
[13:53] <petsounds> !usb > opakavic
[13:53] <richthegeek> alankilla: ok, guess we just tell marlen to ignore the issue then?
[13:53] <Bilaw> opakavic: have you ensured that your computer booted from the usb devices? Have you md5sum’d the version of ubuntu?
[13:54] <opakavic> Bilaw: how to md5sum?
[13:54] <weechat_user> hi @ all
[13:54] <ubuntu> kist
[13:54] <weechat_user> set
[13:54] <kristian_> @richthegeek - the cat command also produces a corrupted .jpg
[13:54] <IdleOne> alankila: you want to remove all of kde anf keep what in it's place?
[13:54] <Liquid-Silence> brb
[13:54] <Liquid-Silence> rebootg
[13:54] <weechat_user> mode
[13:54] <weechat_user> hmpf
[13:54] <richthegeek> opakavic: it's a terminal command. "md5sum FILENAME"
[13:55] <opakavic> richthegeek: okay i test it now
[13:55] <richthegeek> kristian_: yes of course it does, you need to seperate them again to use.
[13:55] <marlen> I'm trying to do what you told me, but with little success
[13:55] <marlen> I'm trying
[13:55] <richthegeek> marlen: sorry, alankilla says it's pretty difficult to do
[13:55] <AntiProxy> hi guys
[13:55] <alankila> IdleOne: not me. But someone else, marlen. Or then it was even xubuntu-desktop, and not kubuntu-desktop. Bah. I just thought I'll point out that the suggested strategy won't work.
[13:55] <richthegeek> marlen: is it possible for you to fresh install from a CD?
[13:55] <opakavic> richthegeek: its checking !
[13:56] <richthegeek> alankilla; sorry, wasn't having a go just pointing out
[13:56] <IdleOne> marlen: did you have ubuntu and then installed xubuntu-desktop over it?
[13:56] <WayneDead> hi
[13:56] <zilkomaa> Guys, tell me options to take all benefits in use to my 64 bit system.
[13:56] <opakavic> richthegeek: It checked and given me some hexadecimal values
[13:56] <norbi905> Hello, I have installed World of Warcraft through wine.  When I want to start the game, or even switch to that folder it gives me permission denied.  If I do chmod 777 on the directory it works and I can launch the application.  But everytime I restart the computer the changes revert back and I have to do it again.  Is there a way around this?  I though chmod would keep the settings until changed?
[13:56] <marlen> no, I have vista and installed xubuntu. I liked, but I need more space in it
[13:56] <richthegeek> opakavic: yes, it gave a 32 bit long hex code, it's the md5 hash
[13:57] <richthegeek> compare it to the md5 hash that is listed on the download page
[13:57] <weechat_user> hi
[13:57] <kristian_> @richthegeek - my goal is to use the .jpg and hide the .pdf in it.
[13:57] <opakavic> richthegeek: okay, sure i'll check
[13:57] <richthegeek> kristian_: not possible.
[13:57] <xiong> norbi905, Normally, chmod is a permanent change. The question is, What is changing it back?
[13:57] <weechat_user> ...
[13:58] <kemmotar> marlen: load from Live CD and start new installation on partition where you have xubuntu...
[13:58] <richthegeek> xiong. norbi905: remember what it was, chmod again.
[13:58] <kristian_> @richthegeek - ok, where should I post my goals to make it possible in the future?
[13:59] <AntiProxy> i'm on Ubuntu 9.10, with a RAID1 built of two 320GB SATA Drives (both are 10 days old).. yesterday Palimpsest Disk Utility popped up saying one of the "DISK HAS MANY BAD SECTORS", i googled it and found many reports of the utlitity reporting such false alarms, however smartctl clearly reports the same with "Current_Pending_Sector" of 112 :\ i ran a full surface scan using the DOS CD from Western Digital.. and that reported the disc to have 0 errors!! i dow
[13:59] <AntiProxy> nloaded hdrecover and ran it.. couple hours later, it finished saying 0 bad sectors found..
[13:59] <AntiProxy> what gives? :(
[13:59] <opakavic> richthegeek: please help me, they not listed !, i downloaded hardy
[13:59] <norbi905> richthegeek, xiong:  What could be changing the permission back?  I am not sure.  It's not a problem really, just a bit annoying.  And I would like to know a work around even for just an educational purposes.
[13:59] <marlen> ok, thanks a lot and sorry for my english.
[13:59] <xiong> richthegeek, Sorry; I can't figure out what you mean.
[13:59] <Xanova> Hi folks !
[13:59] <richthegeek> kristian_: what you want to do is impossible due to the file format of JPEG and PDF - the pdf code after the jpeg code will attempt to interpreted by the viewer.
[14:00] <richthegeek> opakavic: which distro exactly. 9.10 32 bit?
[14:00] <xiong> norbi905, What happens when you chmod and change the owner to root?
[14:00] <geirha> norbi905: I've noticed that. The wow-folder gets weird permissions after a new wow-update.
[14:00] <opakavic> richthegeek: its, ubuntu-8.04.4-desktop-i386.iso, x86
[14:00] <opakavic> richthegeek: 32bit
[14:00] <xiong> norbi905, Or create a dummy user and change owner to that?
[14:00] <ubuntu> hii i want to install ubuntu on mac. boot camp be not able to split hdd. if i slip hdd by partition magic. is that risky to lose my data?
[14:00] <richthegeek> opakavic: any particular reason you are using such an old distro?
[14:01] <kristian_> @richthegeek - it's possible under windows - so there must be a way to work it out.
[14:01] <richthegeek> ubuntu: split using gparted in the live CD. And yes, there is always a chance so backup EVERYTHING
[14:01] <opakavic> richthegeek: i like the way they made it, i need it for stability
[14:01] <norbi905> xiong, geirha:  when I do chmod 777 that gives permission to all does it not?  And this does not only happen after an update, this is everytime I restart the system.
[14:01] <opakavic> richthegeek: i wan it for my another system..
[14:01] <zilkomaa> Do i need install firewall in ubuntu ?
[14:01] <richthegeek> kristian_: That is done with propietary software that modifies the interpreters for those files. If you want to hide a PDF prepend the name with .
[14:02] <geirha> norbi905: I've only encountered it after a wow-update.
[14:02] <richthegeek> opakavic: fair enough. Not sure if there are still md5sums for something that old. Give me a minute
[14:02] <Xanova> I kinda need your help. It seems that my network card (who used to work perfectly on windows, both ethernet and wifi) can't detect any wireless network. I'm connected with my eth, but i don't have any wlan option.
[14:02] <opakavic> richthegeek: okay..
[14:02] <Bilaw> opakavic: more info on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM
[14:02] <ubuntu> richthegeek : thanks.
[14:03] <xiong> norbi905, chmod 777 gives permission; chown changes who can give (or withhold) that permission. If something is changing permissions on X, then it (may be) the owner of X.
[14:03] <richthegeek> opakavic: 4f41e03d250b2f2b1cd3015c8df4af7c
[14:03] <opakavic> richthegeek: i got the website
[14:04] <fireball_> no sound, please help!
[14:04] <richthegeek> fireball_: plug in speakers?
[14:04] <opakavic> richthegeek: yes, both are same
[14:04] <fireball_> yeah, no sound to mixer, in the middle of a gig, please advise
[14:04] <richthegeek> opakavic: then the ISOs are valid
[14:04] <richthegeek> opakavic: what was your original question?
[14:04] <Seppoz> hio, how do i update an application in ubutu? and whats latest version of qt creator in ubuntu repos
[14:04] <Xanova> Hi there :) I got a wifi problem that i can't fix. My card is recognized by Ubuntu. It's a Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10) but i can't use the wireless option (no wlan0 option)
[14:05] <zilkomaa> How to check alsadriver version?
[14:05] <opakavic> richthegeek: but why its not booting, from pendrive
[14:05] <richthegeek> fireball_: open a terminal and enter "alsamixer"
[14:05] <Liquid-Silence> :d
[14:05] <norbi905> xiong:  after doing ls -l the World of Warcraft folder shows the owner as being me
[14:05] <Liquid-Silence> ok updates done
[14:05] <richthegeek> fireball_: turn everything up to eleven
[14:05] <syrius> is grsecurity no config needed in ubuntu?
[14:05] <richthegeek> opakavic: how old is your machine?
[14:05] <Liquid-Silence> isnt there a free thing like WoW called Eve Online?
[14:05] <norbi905> xiong:  I just exited the game, and now I can't access the folder again.  Permission denied.  I now have to again chmod 777 to access it.  Really weird.
[14:06] <Xanova> Hi there :) I got a wifi problem that i can't fix. My card is recognized by Ubuntu. It's a Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10) but i can't use the wireless option (no wlan0 option)
[14:06] <mikey_> WoW is more medevil, EVE is sci-fi
[14:06] <castiell> 05007janas
[14:06] <opakavic> i'm having a option at my boot option,  its a IBM machine P4 intel x86
[14:06] <xiong> norbi905, Who did you chown to?
[14:06] <mikey_> And I think EVE has a monthly subscription now anyway
[14:06] <Liquid-Silence> mikey_: I am sure there was something like WoW that was free
[14:06] <mikey_> Guild wards?
[14:06] <mikey_> wars*
[14:06] <opakavic> richthegeek: i'm having a option at my boot option,  its a IBM machine P4 intel x86
[14:06] <kristian_> @richthegeek- "If you want to hide a PDF prepend the name with." Cannot process your command.
[14:06] <luky_luky> asdasd
[14:07] <richthegeek> kristian_: rename "some.pdf" to ".some.pdf"
[14:07] <Liquid-Silence> mikey_: with a native client for unix
[14:07] <mikey_> Hmm, I think there is aswell... I'm sure I've played it actually
[14:07] <richthegeek> kristian_: suddenly, it is hidden. *gone* in a puff of smoke
[14:07] <norbi905> xiong:  I did not chown to anyone, I installed it by default under norbi, which is the user.  And when doing ls -l it shows that it is in fact owned by norbi.  Could have I installed it under root, and maybe root is changing back the permission ?
[14:07] <richthegeek> kristian_: and yet it is still there. Amazing.
[14:07] <Xanova> Hi there :) I got a wifi problem that i can't fix. My card is recognized by Ubuntu. It's a Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10) but i can't use the wireless option (no wlan0 option)
[14:07] <mikey_> Regnum Online?
[14:07] <richthegeek> opakavic: not sure then... It *should* work
[14:08] <Seppoz> hio, how do i update an application in ubutu? and whats latest version of qt creator in ubuntu repos
[14:08] <richthegeek> opakavic: assuming you used the USB Startup Disk Creator rather than just extracting to the USB stick or whatever
[14:08] <opakavic> richthegeek: lemme check that agian, with ubuntu forum help
[14:08] <opakavic> brb
[14:08] <richthegeek> Seppoz: System -> Admin.. -> Update Manager
[14:08] <Seppoz> ty
[14:08] <mikey_> I didn't realise Eve has a native Linux client
[14:08] <kristian_> @richthegeek - copy that. still the same result.
[14:09] <mikey_> Oh, there isn't haha
[14:09] <richthegeek> kristian_: entirely different result. What you want cannot be done. I cannot help you with this anymore than i can build a perpetual motion mahine
[14:09] <Xanova> Please help me i don' know what else to do i've tried everyhing i could see on the internet...
[14:09] <richthegeek> Xanova: update your system?
[14:09] <kristian_> @richthegeek - copy that. thank you for your help.
[14:09] <Xanova> It is up to dae... =/
[14:09] <opakavic> where is rumpsy?
[14:09] <Xanova> date*
[14:09] <opakavic> i'm looking for him
[14:10] <richthegeek> Xanova: try a different wireless dongle?
[14:10] <xiong> norbi905, I'm suggesting that you chown the folder to somebody else -- root, a dummy user, anybody but you. *Something* is chmod the folder to another permissions mask (What, by the way?) I'm guessing, randomly, that this Someone is you -- or rather, some process running under your UID. Therefore, if you chown the folder to another user, it's possible that the Someone-as-you will not be able to chmod it 'back'.
[14:10] <Xanova> I insalled ubuntu like a week ago
[14:10] <richthegeek> Xanova: yes, but the ISO will have been created at launch time back in October
[14:10] <opakavic> rumpsy here?
[14:10] <Xanova> ritchthegeek: Live what ?
[14:10] <Xanova> like*
[14:11] <richthegeek> Xanova: search on amazon for "linux wireless dongle" or similar
[14:11] <xiong> norbi905, This is a pretty random approach; I don't pretend it's authoritative; I don't guarantee it will work. Rather, it's a test.
[14:11] <Xanova> k
[14:11] <kristian_> any possibility to use the windows cmd under ubuntu?
[14:11] <fireball_> richthegeek: how do i turn on headphone please?
[14:11] <xiong> kristian_, *Which* Windows command?
[14:11] <richthegeek> kristian_: the command prompt? Linux has a much more capable thing called the "terminal"
[14:12] <norbi905> xiong:  I have chown the directory to root.  Now I can access it without having to chmod.
[14:12] <Liquid-Silence> bbiab
[14:12] <Liquid-Silence> rugby time
[14:12] <Liquid-Silence> :)
[14:12] <richthegeek> fireball_: turn every slider up to 11
[14:12] <LetsGo67> My LAN-hosted HTTP server is slow!  How do I speed it up, please?
[14:12] <richthegeek> fireball_: and by 11 I mean 100
[14:12] <norbi905> xiong:  Will have to restart the computer to see if the changes still be in place.  Be back in a few :)
[14:12] <xiong> norbi905, I'd suggest you chmod 777 the folder, then see if the problem still exists.
[14:12] <fireball_> richthegeek: headphone muted, not sure what changes that
[14:12] <xiong> norbi905, I still want to know what *other* permissions get 'reset' on you.
[14:12] <norbi905> xiong:  You mean chmod it now as it belongs to root, and then change the ownership back to user norbi?
[14:13] <Xanova> Well I guess my card is not supported by Linux >.<. The only option is to buy a new wireless dongle...
[14:13] <richthegeek> fireball_: if the sliders are at 100 it's not muted. Try different ports
[14:13] <Asmob> h can somone say what java i must use? now i have 2 OpenJDK and Sun Java, whitch of them runs better..?
[14:13] <richthegeek> Xanova: it probably is. Try pluggin in the computer via a cable, running an update, and trying the dongle again
[14:13] <fireball_> richthegeek: it WAS working fine, after a reboot, not. . .
[14:13] <xiong> norbi905, Please don't confuse chmod and chown. I suggest you chown to root; chmod 777. This will allow anybody to do anything with that folder (theoretically unwise) but only root to change that allowance.
[14:14] <richthegeek> fireball_: oddness. Not sure tbh, audio isn't my thing.
[14:14] <kristian_> @richthegeek - i know - but my problem is solvable with the windows command prompt
[14:14] <richthegeek> kristian_: what command are you running in cmd?
[14:14] <Seppoz> so it doesnt list qt in the update manager.. any idea?
[14:14] <xiong> kristian_, XY problem.
[14:15] <Xanova> richthegeek: The thing is I don't have any dongle it's a wireless card in my mother card. (Please excuse my bad english, I'm européan)
[14:15] <Xanova> european*
[14:15]  * scunizi wonders if that is a country
[14:15] <richthegeek> Xanova: same idea anyway - connect via cable and update
[14:15] <kristian_> copy /b file1.jpg + file2.pdf file3.jpg
[14:15] <richthegeek> ***scuzini in the same way America is
[14:15] <xiong> kristian_, http://perlmonks.org/?node=XY+Problem
[14:15] <Xanova> richthegeek: You advice me to update my driver ?
[14:16] <scunizi> richthegeek: :)
[14:16] <richthegeek> kristian_: cat does the same thing. Difference is the windows viewers you are using are less "perfect" and yet more useful
[14:16] <Xanova> richthegeek: Cause I've been looking for a linux driver for my card but I never found it...
[14:16] <richthegeek> Xanova: your whole system
[14:16] <Xanova> richthegeek: Aw ok
[14:16] <POC|Farmer> hi, update to my problem: while booting i get "udev[838]: goto '_end' has no matching label in '/etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules'" and then loading the hardwaredrivers fails with 2.6.28/27/24. though booting works with 2.6.22 (still same error), udev consumes 99% of the cpu so booting takes 30 minutes
[14:16] <richthegeek> Xanova: run the Update Manager until there are no more updates
[14:17] <POC|Farmer> any ideas?
[14:17] <Seppoz> richthegeek, but i dont wana update the kernel, is that a proplem?
[14:17] <richthegeek> Seppoz: no idea mate
[14:17] <Xanova> richthegeek: Except some python or ubuntuone updates i don't have anything else...
[14:17] <kristian_> @richthegeek - in which way are they more imperfect?
[14:17] <richthegeek> Xenova: dunno then. Guess it's the expensive solution for you :(
[14:18] <richthegeek> kristian_: they just dump content they can't use instead of attempting to interpret
[14:18] <richthegeek> right guys, I've had enough of this hydra-esque activities. Someone else take over. I'm gonna go wait for Argos to finally show up
[14:19] <Asmob> can somone say what java i must use? now i have 2 OpenJDK and Sun Java, whitch of them runs better..?
[14:20] <kristian_> @richthegeek - copy that.
[14:20] <Xanova> richthegeek: Well i don't have any updates left.
[14:21] <arkrost> hi
[14:21] <aar> Hi, my screen goes a shade darker when I run programs like mplayer or dangerdeep (also when I resume after suspending). I've set the brightness level to maximum but that doesn't do the trick. Anu clues? (Kubuntu 8.04 LTS)
[14:21] <scunizi> Xanova: did you do a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade?  it won't take you to the next release but just upgrade existing packages to newer versions if they are available.
[14:22] <xiong> aar, That's weird.
[14:22] <Xanova> scunizi: I'll do that
[14:22] <grkblood13> flash is driving me crazy on FF, it seems like every day i have to unpackage the flash tarball and recopy libflayplayer.so to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins, im on 9.10 64 bit. why do i have to continually do this?
[14:23] <Xanova> scunizi: All is up to date
[14:23] <aar> xiong, yeah. I'm using a Dell Inspiron 1525 and this started happening after my last upgrade to 2.6-24-27
[14:25] <wubi> a
[14:25] <ubuntu> i had installed wubi on xp. since xp crashed i recovered it to find that the paritition was intact with ubuntu iso but there was no other data there!! how do i recover the lost data and also make a grub entry.
[14:26] <Xanova> Anyone has some time to spend on my desperate case ? :/
[14:26] <nastas> hi all
[14:27] <Xanova> Hi nastas
[14:27] <Asmob> can somone say what java i must use? now i have 2 OpenJDK and Sun Java, whitch of them runs better..?
[14:27] <vargadanis> hi everyone... I have compiled gimp 2.7 on 9.10 and I don't find anywhere the new single window mode.. Is there a special switch to be specified when i compile gimp to enable the feature?
[14:27] <scunizi> Asmob: uninstall the OpenJDK one
[14:28] <FelpsJ> histo, anyone here uses Nted?
[14:28] <ubuntu> i had installed wubi on xp. since xp crashed i recovered it to find that the paritition was intact with ubuntu iso but there was no other data there!! how do i recover the lost data and also make a grub entry.
[14:28] <FelpsJ> histo, any one here uses Nted?
[14:29] <FelpsJ> hi, any one here uses Nted?
[14:29] <ranjan> hello every body can any body can tell me is there any way to have two different passwords one for root and other for an user ...
[14:29] <ubuntu> no one here for wubi?
[14:30] <vargadanis> ranjan, you can set passwords for users easily through gui or command line...
[14:30] <vargadanis> ranjan, go to administration->users menupoint and there you can set the passwords
[14:30] <elpargo> is there a way to find which package provides which file?
[14:31] <vargadanis> elpargo, you should be able to use dpkg -l or dpkg -L for the list of files installed by packages... from command line
[14:31] <ranjan> vargadanis : i am know that part but i want to keep two different password's one for root account and other for my user account
[14:31] <petsounds> Asmob, i have both sun java and openjdk install, you can choose which one to use. follow http://is.gd/7Olwf and in my desktop openjdk is better.
[14:32] <vargadanis> elpargo, never mind that.. use dpkg -I
[14:32] <vargadanis> that is a capital i
[14:32] <ranjan> vargadanis : i am know that part but i want to keep two different password's one for root account and other for my user account  is it possible
[14:32] <actionParsnip> yo yo yo
[14:32] <FelpsJ> I'm new to ubuntu filesystem. I installed Nted from Synaptic, now I want to find the examples files. Where should I look?
[14:32] <vargadanis> ranjan, so do you want 2 accounts? a root and a user account and you want 2 different passwords for the 2 accounts?
[14:32] <Xanova> Hey guys, could someone help me with my wireless problem ?
[14:33] <actionParsnip> !info nted
[14:33] <Seveas> FelpsJ, probably /usr/share/doc/nted/examples/
[14:33] <ubuntu> repost: URGENT : i had installed wubi on xp. since xp crashed i recovered it to find that the paritition was intact with ubuntu iso but there was no other data there!! how do i recover the lost data and also make a grub entry.
[14:33] <vargadanis> Xanova, ask away
[14:33] <actionParsnip> !details | Xanova
[14:33] <elpargo> vargadanis: perhaps you didn't understood my question. I have the file I want to know which package installed it.
[14:33] <Asmob> petsounds, why openjdk is better?
[14:33] <Seveas> FelpsJ, /usr/share/doc/(application name)/ is where documentation lives. Most have an examples/ subdir with examples :)
[14:33] <elpargo> for example <command> `which vim` will tell me package = vim
[14:33] <FelpsJ> Seveas: ok.. I will look there
[14:34] <llutz> elpargo: dpkg -S filename
[14:34] <FelpsJ> Seveas: thank you
[14:34] <vargadanis> elpargo, ohh i don't know how to do that
[14:34] <Xanova> I have a problem with my wireless card. It seems that i can't use the wlan option (can't use wireless).
[14:34] <actionParsnip> Xanova: can you give a pastebin of the output of: sudo lshw -C network; sudo iwlist scan
[14:34] <actionParsnip> !paste | Xanova
[14:34] <FelpsJ> Seveas; itś there.. thank you
[14:35] <petsounds> Asmob, because i never had sun java working. just test it here http://is.gd/7Omlp
[14:35] <ranjan> vargadanis : ya root with all prevalage  but hidden and my account as an ordinary user with simple password
[14:35] <vargadanis> ranjan, just create a user account set a password to it... if you don't wanna use root, just don't
[14:36] <actionParsnip> elpargo: you can also use apt-file but it takes a while to get setup initially
[14:36] <vargadanis> ranjan, you can limit the user privileges in the administration->user settings
[14:36] <actionParsnip> ranjan: use sudo instead, its more secure. just make sure your username is a member ofadmin
[14:36] <actionParsnip> *of admin
[14:37] <norbi905> xiong:  Ok back, well by changing the ownership to root, it now kept the permission and I can launch WoW with user norbi.  Thanks, still not sure what would keep changing it back though :(
[14:37] <Xanova> actionParsnip : http://paste.ubuntu.com/370285/
[14:37] <elpargo> llutz: thanks, that did the trick.
[14:37] <actionParsnip> Xanova: cool, let me read it
[14:37] <lacy_> i have a question  im useing logitech speakers  that are usb  but i have no  system  sound but i can play media files
[14:37] <vargadanis> I have compiles gimp2.7 on 9.10 and I don't find the single window mode anywhere.. how do I enable the feature?
[14:37] <elpargo> actionParsnip: umm that's an external package, any advantages over dpkg -S  ?
[14:38] <arcsky> anyone know a good blog about ubuntu ?
[14:38] <actionParsnip> elpargo: Ubuntu is made of external packages by design
[14:38] <llutz> elpargo: apt-file searches in packages which are not installed too
[14:38] <actionParsnip> !ot | arcsky
[14:38] <xiong> norbi905, I'm not an expert and whatever I say is pure conjecture. OTOH, I guessed right, so perhaps I'm on a streak.
[14:38] <ubuntu> this is insane. no one for my lost cause?
[14:38] <actionParsnip> Xanova: your wifi is not on or not detected
[14:39] <arcsky> !ot | actionParsnip
[14:39] <actionParsnip> Xanova: is it a usb wifi or an internal device?
[14:39] <Asmob> petsounds, i have Sun Java vorking
[14:39] <Xanova> actionParsnip : Well it's no deteced cause i never shut it down. btw, my wifi is in my mothercard
[14:39] <actionParsnip> arcsky: i am supporting ubuntu which is what the cannel is for, therefore I am not offtopic at all
[14:39] <norbi905> xiong:  Good for you, thanks again :)
[14:39] <arcsky> actionParsnip: i see
[14:39] <elpargo> llutz: ahh that's handy, btw for some reason colloquy can't autocomplete your username :p
[14:39] <xiong> norbi905, My thinking is that some process running under your UID (very likely WoW itself) is doing the unfavorable chmod. Why, I can't imagine. It's a commercial game, so any weirdness is possible.
[14:39] <u007-1> hi... anyone uses xdelta to make binary diff?
[14:40] <elpargo> actionParsnip: huh? what do you mean by that.
[14:40] <xiong> norbi905, Thank you for allowing me to help.
[14:40] <actionParsnip> arcsky: questions regarding ubuntu blogs are offtopic here as they are not support requests for the OS, hence why i fired the factoid
[14:40] <scunizi> arcsky: #ubuntu-offtopic is for all conversation other than support
[14:40] <actionParsnip> elpargo: canonical do not make firefox (for example) but it is part of a standard ubuntu install
[14:40] <llutz> elpargo: i don't know colloquy, but maybe it gets confused by "llua" ;)
[14:41] <sbojchuk> hello everybode
[14:41] <actionParsnip> elpargo: linux distributions are made of packages and apps from many different groups
[14:41] <llutz> Illuna: sorry for waking you up
[14:41] <elpargo> actionParsnip: dude seriously...
[14:41] <Illuna> llutz, used to it :}
[14:41] <actionParsnip> elpargo: so an "external package" doesn't exist
[14:41] <elpargo> actionParsnip: since you are taking it literally. It's a package that is not part of the stock install.
[14:42] <elpargo> actionParsnip: sorry but that is stupid.
[14:42] <actionParsnip> elpargo: that is moot, you can add and remove packages from the default as you wish
[14:42] <Xanova> actionParsnip : What would you advice me to do as Ubuntu recognises my network card (on which my wireless is supposed to be) ?
[14:42] <ubuntu> anyone for wubi help????
[14:42] <elpargo> actionParsnip: an external package is anything that is not in the official ubuntu installers.
[14:42] <actionParsnip> elpargo: just because its not in a stock install doesn't devalue it any
[14:42] <actionParsnip> !info apt-file | elpargo
[14:42] <ubuntu> very urgent for recovery!!
[14:42] <zagrev> umm..why does enabling the "extra" effects in compiz slow down video playback in mplayer? :(
[14:42] <actionParsnip> elpargo: its on the repos
[14:42] <elpargo> actionParsnip: it is because it means I need to install the package on every one of the 100 machines I run.
[14:43]  * Dekkard is gone.. autoaway after 15 min <cyp/lp>
[14:43] <Superpaisible_> salut
[14:43] <ubuntu> anyone for wubi help????
[14:43] <Xanova> elpargo: YOu don't undersand that Ubuntu is MADE of packages from internet. Even packages in the Live CD for example are from inernet...
[14:43] <actionParsnip> elpargo: you can automate installs across multiple systems
[14:43] <elpargo> actionParsnip: anyway, you are taking me too literal. Congrats.
[14:43] <otoman> Zdravíčko. Na linuxos.sk jsem našel docela hezká trička s logem ubuntu. http://www.linuxos.sk/eshop/kategoria/59/index.html
[14:43] <actionParsnip> elpargo: its not its a reasonable evaluation
[14:43] <elpargo> *sigh* don't drag me into a stupid argument.
[14:43] <actionParsnip> elpargo: the apt-file package will help tell you what file is in what package if you search it
[14:44] <elpargo> ok let try to close this once and for all.
[14:44] <actionParsnip> elpargo: thats what you wanted in your initial question so is a solution
[14:44] <actionParsnip> ok
[14:44] <Xanova> actionParsnip : About my wifi
[14:44] <elpargo> since it's not part of the default install I need to install it I'll like to avoid doing that on my servers.
[14:44] <actionParsnip> Xanova: is there a killswitch to turn the wifi on?
[14:44] <Xanova> actionParsnip : What would you advice me to do as Ubuntu recognises my network card (on which my wireless is supposed to be) ?
[14:44] <Xanova> actionParsnip : I don't think so
[14:45] <elpargo> and please don't assume everyone is stupid and try to explain them what a package is. I have written packages myself.
[14:45] <Xanova> actionParsnip : I never touched it and it worked perfectly under windows
[14:45] <actionParsnip> Xanova: you should check, also make sure the device is enabled in bios
[14:45] <jazz> is there a bug with connecting to the internet wirelessly and volume being muted?
[14:45] <Xanova> oK I'll check the bios
[14:45] <actionParsnip> Xanova: you should reboot then and run: dmesg | less    and read the output
[14:45] <Xanova> actionParsnip : oK
[14:45] <kemmotar> hi all! where i can get logs from "Ubuntu User Day" ?
[14:45] <actionParsnip> elpargo: you only have to install it on one if they are all the same release, its not needed on all the servers
[14:45] <scunizi> jazz: one has nothing to do with the other.. they are mutually exclusive issues
[14:46] <guest1> hello there, I'm hoping im at the right place.  a friend said i could get some advise on setting up my graphics card for ubuntu. i'm having problems, can anyone help?  sorry I am a real newbie and dont know even basic comands.  I wud be greatful 4help
[14:46] <actionParsnip> elpargo: as the files in the packages will be identical on all of them as they are the same release
[14:46] <Xanova> Be right back
[14:46] <Adam_eM> Hi there
[14:46] <actionParsnip> guest1: what is the output of: lspci | grep -i vga
[14:46] <macman_> anyone using a dell studio 17 inch ?
[14:46] <elpargo> actionParsnip: you are not making sense.
[14:46] <guest1> how do you type that line beteen the lspci and grep?
[14:47] <actionParsnip> elpargo: the files in the packages on a hardy server will be the same on any hardy server
[14:47] <actionParsnip> guest1: copy and paste to the terminal if you can
[14:47] <kemmotar> hi all! where i can get logs from "Ubuntu User Day" ?
[14:47] <pwnedulongtime> what's the best way to copy OS from one disk to another?
[14:47] <guest1> lspci | grep -i vga
[14:47] <guest1> 00:05.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation C51PV [GeForce 6150] (rev a2)
[14:48] <actionParsnip> elpargo: so its not needed on them all, just one, the files in the packages will be the same between all the servers just like they will be the same on my hardy server or anyones
[14:48] <Adam_eM> Please can anyone help me with my aiptek graphic tablet? I followed the entry at ubuntu community documentation but it still doesn't work as expected
[14:48] <guest1> its installed just fine according to the system but i can only run 640x480 max
[14:48] <actionParsnip> guest1: i have the same card.  run: gksudo jockey-gtk
[14:48] <jazz> scunizi,  at my house i have no net and volume worked perfect had no prob, at my brothers i use my wireless usb and now volume  lowers and randomly mutes
[14:48] <llutz> pwnedulongtime: if you want to copy a linux-installation,  rsync, cp -ax
[14:48] <Adam_eM> here's what i did https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AiptekTablet
[14:49] <jazz> scunizi,  once muted it tries to keep muting and lowereing making typeing a pain
[14:49] <guest1> No command 'run:' found, did you mean:
[14:49] <guest1>  Command 'runq' from package 'exim4-daemon-heavy' (main)
[14:49] <guest1>  Command 'runq' from package 'sendmail-bin' (universe)
[14:49] <guest1>  Command 'runq' from package 'exim4-daemon-light' (main)
[14:49] <guest1> run:: command not found
[14:49] <FloodBot4> guest1: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:49] <elpargo> actionParsnip: dude... for the last time. I do not want to install one package that is huge "python-software-properties" just to use one tiny function (add-apt-repository) which was installed in my ubuntu desktop box but not in my ubuntu server box.
[14:49] <actionParsnip> guest1: no, the command is after the run bit which is why i use a colon
[14:49] <guest1> sorry i am so new i dont really know what im doing.  :)
[14:49] <actionParsnip> elpargo: then use websearches
[14:49] <fakeer> Forgot my passphrase (have everything else). Have a revoke certificate and revoked my public key from all all main servers. Now it shows as || *** KEY REVOKED *** [not verified] || . What is this "not verified"? How can I remove or replace this key from keyservers? Or if I can't then what is the best option for me?
[14:49] <Xanova> !paste Xanova
[14:49] <actionParsnip> guest1: flooding the channel like that is not cool
[14:50] <grkblood13> flash is driving me crazy on FF, it seems like every day i have to unpackage the flash tarball and recopy libflayplayer.so to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins, im on 9.10 64 bit. why do i have to continually do this?
[14:50] <actionParsnip> guest1: press alt+f2   type: gksudo jockey-gtk     press enter
[14:50] <Adam_eM> the tablet seems to work unless i put a pen on a surface. Then i can move the pointer only on the pad surface
[14:50] <elpargo> actionParsnip: huh?
[14:50] <Xanova> actionParsnip: could you give me the link where i can paste my dmesg pls ?
[14:50] <BlessJah> problem with conky+compiz, load dbe doesnt help
[14:50] <actionParsnip> !paste | Xan
[14:50] <Xanova> thx
[14:50] <actionParsnip> elpargo: if you dont want to use apt-file you can use the web
[14:51] <guest1> sorry everyone, not sure what flooding is though!!
[14:51] <elpargo> actionParsnip: or dpkg -S :)
[14:51] <elpargo> bue
[14:51] <elpargo> bye
[14:51] <actionParsnip> guest1: multiple lines all at once in a channel
[14:51] <collabra> grkblood13: do you 'sudo' to do this?
[14:51] <actionParsnip> guest1: like the stuff you pasted
[14:51] <nutrix> y0
[14:51] <guest1> that run command take me to the driver choice screen and i've got a green light on version 185. that make sense?

[14:52] <nutrix> hmmm but tell me good torrent client
[14:52] <guest1> its saying already activated
[14:52] <grkblood13> it just stops working for whatever reason
[14:52] <grkblood13> so i have to recopy it
[14:52] <actionParsnip> Xanova: no, you have only copied the top section, you have piped the text to less so you can scroll up and down the text to read it yourself
[14:52] <grkblood13> and restart firefox
[14:52] <nutrix> ?
[14:53] <erUSUL> nutrix: deluge
[14:53] <actionParsnip> Xanova: read through to see when and if your wifi is detected
[14:53] <Xanova> actionParnsnip: ok

[14:53] <grkblood13> collabra, yes
[14:53] <rzl> hello there!
[14:53] <obiwan_> hi rzl!
[14:53] <grkblood13> ive tried several different version, im current using a 64 bit version

[14:54] <nutrix> :::::::d
[14:54] <Kagarman> fak me?
[14:54] <nutrix> good
[14:54] <collabra> grkblood13: and you put it in /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins or /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins?
[14:54] <actionParsnip> grkblood13: make sure you uninstall the flash packages from your system too to save confusion
[14:54] <grkblood13> actionParsnip, you mean when i do this i need to remove the one from /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins?
[14:55] <guest1> what do i do now?  sorry i've never been in chat room before, very strange but good!
[14:55] <rzl> hi obiwan_
[14:55] <actionParsnip> guest1: ok if you run: nvidia-settings    can you select higher?
[14:55] <collabra> grkblood13: it couldn't hurt to delete it first
[14:56] <actionParsnip> grkblood13: no, run: dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep gnash; dpkg -l | grep swf
[14:56] <guest1> no, only max option is 640x480.
[14:56] <collabra> grkblood13: but you might try to put it in /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins   though
[14:56] <actionParsnip> grkblood13: make sure the command outputs nothing
[14:56] <albasheers> hi i am experiencing Maximize delay with compiz and ATI driver in karmic koala
[14:56] <gwhipple> how do i change gdm greeter theme
[14:56] <Xanova> actionParnsnip: Either I didn't see it or it's not detected... But I must say that i got confused with all the lines oO'
[14:56] <Slart> guest1: this is basically a notepad that 1300 persons can see and edit at the same time
[14:56] <actionParsnip> guest1: ok you may need an xorg.conf to set refresh rates which will make the driver run
[14:56] <actionParsnip> guest1: i have to do the same
[14:57] <Slart> guest1: if you have a question about ubuntu you just ask it.. please make sure you include information that is needed such as version of ubuntu and such
[14:57] <ubuntu> Slart - anyone for wubi help????
[14:57] <actionParsnip> guest1: run: sudo nvidia-xconfig

[14:57] <actionParsnip> guest1: then reboot, should be ok then
[14:57] <Slart> guest1: oh.. you have already.. nevermind me then =)
[14:58] <ubuntu> actionParsnip - anyone for wubi help????
[14:58] <Slart> ubuntu: sorry.. don't use it, haven't used it.. don't know much about it
[14:58] <actionParsnip> gwhipple: its not implemented last I heard
[14:58] <CAPcap> #winehq is that right for the wine channel?
[14:58] <actionParsnip> ubuntu: no, or i would have replied earlier wouldnt I?
[14:58] <Slart> CAPcap: yes
[14:58] <CAPcap> thanks
[14:59] <gwhipple> actionParsnip: i d/l a new theme but don't know how to change it
[14:59] <guest1> okay thanks,ive typed that in and it says new xorg file written.
[14:59] <guest1> wow that many people in one place, this is very strange.
[14:59] <actionParsnip> gwhipple: i think epidermis is a work around, its not something i use as I just take defaults
[14:59] <albasheers> hi i am experiencing Maximize delay with compiz and ATI driver in karmic koala
[15:00] <CAPcap> ok no one is responding wine so i'll ask my question here. how would I run photoshop 7.0 from the terminal (through wine of course)
[15:01] <Slart> CAPcap: have you checked the application database? it's at http://appdb.winehq.org
[15:01] <suman> hi everybody!
[15:01] <actionParsnip> CAPcap: wine /path/to/program.exe
[15:01] <resno> hello
[15:01] <actionParsnip> CAPcap: just like any other wine app
[15:01] <llutz> CAPcap: wine ~/.wine/path/to/ps/everyonelikesphotoshop.exe
[15:01] <CAPcap> Slart I can run photoshop normally, it works perfectly, I need to know the command because I'm making a keyboard shortcut.
[15:02] <gwhipple> epidermis: thanks for the epidermis tip d/l'ing now will check it out
[15:02] <igama> CAPcap, cd .wine/drive_c/blablablabla
[15:02] <guest1> actionParsnip - i've typed that in and got a new xorg file.  what happens now?
[15:02] <CAPcap> actionParsnip, I didnt know that, and thats exactly what i needed thanks
[15:02] <actionParsnip> CAPcap: np man
[15:02] <CAPcap> llutz, and igama, thank you as well
[15:02] <llutz> CAPcap: easier: /usr/bin/gimp   :) scnr
[15:02] <Slart> CAPcap: why not drag the menu shortcut to the desktop. (or right click on it.. I think there's an option to put it on the desktop), then right click on the launcher on the desktop and select properties.. there you can see the command that it runs
[15:03] <igama> CAPcap, its basicly always : wine name.exe
[15:03] <candy_> i cannot acces to internet through my wireless service in my laptop but i can see the network... help
[15:03] <igama> CAPcap, again, if you install photoshop, you should have a shortcut in the Application Menu, in the Wine sub-menu
[15:03] <CAPcap> llutz, I'd use gimp except of picky people I work with ;)
[15:04] <CAPcap> igama, i know that, I want to hotkey it and i need the command for that :)
[15:04] <CAPcap> igama im good now. thanks
[15:04] <actionParsnip> CAPcap: as long as you produce the image required who cares what tool you use ;)
[15:04] <valentinex> how to edit this?  edit your ~/.asoundrc
[15:04] <suman> candy_,  may be your modem is not connected to the internet, but connection is only between router and computer.
[15:04] <CAPcap> actionParsnip, its about saving in the photoshop format for later editing thats all
[15:04] <actionParsnip> CAPcap: i see, yes you'll needphotoshop then
[15:05] <candy_> suman, how to check that??
[15:05] <CAPcap> actionParsnip, also im very comfortable with photoshop and im still exploring gimp
[15:05] <guest1> using ubuntu 9.1, my nvidia 6150 onboard graphics doesnt let me go above 640x480. im using nvidia installed drivers that ubuntu detected. what can i do?
[15:05] <FelpsJ> !midi
[15:05] <Xanova> actionParsnip: I rebooted and checked the bios: I don't see my card (but the thing is everything thing is in my motherboard)
[15:05] <actionParsnip> CAPcap: use both if they get you where you wanna go
[15:05] <suman> candy_, can you connect via ethernet?
[15:05] <actionParsnip> Xanova: ok then read through dmesg to see what is going on during boot
[15:05] <candy_> suman, i can connect via my mobile broadband
[15:06] <Slart> guest1: can you pastebin the file /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[15:06] <Slart> !pastebin | guest1
[15:06] <candy_> suman, same wireless server i was able to connect a few days before. dont know what happend today
[15:06] <Xanova> actionParsnip: I won't understand anything. I installed ubuntu 1 week ago oO
[15:07] <suman> candy_, i am asking you if you may connect your computer via ethernet from modem / router to your computer.
[15:07] <actionParsnip> Xanova: its very english
[15:07] <kaddi_> of course that renders ubuntu unbootable adn I have to manually edit the grub menu before being able to boot a kernel again I was wondering if someone else has experienced this?
[15:07] <jazz> does anyone know how and why if'n its a bug?? volume lowers  and mutes when connected to the net wirelessly?
[15:07] <kaddi_> of course that renders ubuntu unbootable adn I have to manually edit the grub menu before being able to boot a kernel again I was wondering if someone else has experienced this?
[15:07] <cmp> Quan-Time, are you there?
[15:07] <candy_> suman, wait i ll check
[15:07] <jazz> i spent the last 7 days with no net and no problems
[15:07] <valentinex> How to edit this file? with which command?  edit your ~/.asoundrc
[15:07] <kaddi_> arg... wth, it eats half of my post.
[15:08] <erUSUL> valentinex: use an editor « gedit  ~/.asoundrc » should work
[15:08] <Slart> kaddi_: I didn't catch the first part of your post
[15:08] <guest1> sorry how do i pastebin my file?  i'm a complete newbie
[15:08] <kaddi_> I have a very weird "bug" when my laptop looses power: The grub menu entries for ubuntu get rewritten from "root (hd0,6)" "kernel ... root=/dev/sda7" to "root (hd0,5)" "kernel .... root=/dev/sda8". Any idea what might be causing this? Anyone experience that as well?
[15:08] <suman> candy_, there are some time when you lose connection to internet as your ISP has some outage or something but you still connect your computer to your router which is wireless only.
[15:08] <suman> candy_, ok
[15:08] <candy_> suman, if u r getting this message then i m through ethernet now
[15:09] <Slart> guest1: go to http://paste.ubuntu.com  .. you'll see a big text box.. open the file you want to pastebin in the regular text editor, select all text and copy it.. paste it into the webpage.. then press "submit" or "ok" (I can't remember which) and tell us the new url
[15:09] <jazz> kaddi_,  sometimes i get a beta 1.94 something or other instead of grub  i have to esc to get my os choises

[15:10] <actionParsnip> !bootoptions | Xanova
[15:10] <valentinex> How can I change my system default sound device?
[15:10] <actionParsnip> Xanova: you may need to disable acpi for example
[15:10] <actionParsnip> !sound | valentinex
[15:10] <CAPcap> ok im back again, it says it cant find the directory even though I copied and pasted it
[15:10] <doddo> Might be that i need to setup some repositories or some such, but i wouldnt know which
[15:10] <suman> candy_, i will give you link where you can read a lot of information on the wireless and internet connectivity. Please try if Ethernet is working. If not there is connection issue from your ISP
[15:10] <Xanova> actionParsnip: oK I'll check it out
[15:11] <Slart> CAPcap: what was the command you tried?
[15:11] <cmp> hello every body - any one here please guide me for my needs ..?

[15:11] <Slart> CAPcap: make the space a   \
[15:11] <llutz> CAPcap: wine "/home/chase/.wine/dosdevices/c:/Program Files/Adobe/Photoshop 7.0/Photoshop.exe"

[15:12] <Slart> CAPcap: so instead of photoshop 7.0     photoshop\ 7.0
[15:12] <actionParsnip> CAPcap: or: wine /home/chase/.wine/dosdevices/c:/Program\ Files/Adobe/Photoshop\ 7\.\0/Photoshop.exe
[15:12] <egoboo> I just install xp then Karmic to a new hard drive. Karmic installed fine but I don't think it installed the bootloader (there is no boot menu). How can I install a boot menu?
[15:12] <CAPcap> llutz im such an idiot. thanks
[15:12] <Xanova> actionParsnip: Does it change anything with a dual boot mode ? Cause I installed ubuntu on an external HDD
[15:12] <Slart> CAPcap: or use the quotation marks.. that works too =)
[15:12] <actionParsnip> CAPcap: use tab to complete the names to handle the spaces
[15:12] <jazz> ubottu,  when i dbl click the sound icon i dont get nothing
[15:12] <jazz>  oh well then  :)
[15:12] <actionParsnip> Xanova: if you hibernate / suspend windows it CAN lock the wireless. so dont do that ;)
[15:12] <Slart> actionParsnip: escape the dot as well? or that was just being pedantic? =)
[15:13] <kaddi_> jazz: I'm pretty sure it's grub since I can edit the menu list from the booted grub menu with the old commands.
[15:13] <actionParsnip> Slart: thought it was needed....?
[15:13] <suman> candy_,  To check the problem I am asking you to check the connection via cable. Give me some time i will send you link soon.
[15:13] <egoboo> (It boots straight into Windows now, with no boot menu)
[15:13] <guest1> hope i've done that correctlY?  my graphics card problem - http://paste.ubuntu.com/370307/
[15:13] <Slart> actionParsnip: hmm.. bash eats dots?.. bah.. nevermind =)
[15:13] <CAPcap> and now it works perfectly :) thanks guys!
[15:13] <Slart> guest1: ok.. I'll have a look
[15:14] <Xanova> actionParsnip: I didn't. I jus shuted it down and rebooted with ubuntu ...
[15:14] <erUSUL> actionParsnip: Slart no it is not needed
[15:14] <actionParsnip> Xanova: should be ok then
[15:14] <actionParsnip> erUSUL: didnt know so covered the base

[15:14] <cmp> ading , thanks
[15:14] <llutz> actionParsnip: best to \e\s\c\a\p\e\ \a\l\l ;)
[15:14] <m_fulder> why can't I see my ubuntu machine in a windows network??
[15:15] <actionParsnip> llutz: hahahahaha nice
[15:15] <Xanova> actionParsnip: So when I'm a the boot options shall I deactivate the acpi ?
[15:15] <Slart> guest1: ok.. have a look at line 185
[15:15] <actionParsnip> Xanova: try differnet combnations, if its a laptop there may be a guide for the make and model
[15:15] <Slart> guest1: it says "(WW) NVIDIA(GPU-0): Unable to read EDID for display device CRT-0
[15:15] <actionParsnip> m_fulder: can you ping its IP?
[15:15] <suman> candy_, see if it works. I have not verified the link for the full trouble shooting please read carefully and the full text
[15:16] <m_fulder> how do I ping it IP actionParsnip ? :P
[15:16] <candy_> suman, i can connect through the wire.
[15:16] <actionParsnip> m_fulder: in a terminal, ping in linux is the same as ping in windos
[15:16] <Xanova> actionParsnip: Na, it's a tower. I don't even know the model as it's an old Fujitsu-Siemens (about 4years old)
[15:16] <actionParsnip> Slart: sounds like it needs an xorg.conf to specify refresh rates
[15:16] <guest1> yes i see that, my mate thought my card woz faulty, but its fine. it worked in windows fine. I can tell you the monitor make and that.  what shall i do now?
[15:16] <jazz> what do i have to install for the volume icon to be double clickable?
[15:16] <Slart> guest1: EDID is a way for the graphics card to talk to the screen.. that way it knows what the screen can do and which resolutions it can show.. sometimes this doesn't work and then it uses some safe default values.. in this case 640x480
[15:16] <actionParsnip> Xanova: ok so the wifi is on a pci card?
[15:16] <Slart> actionParsnip: yup
[15:17] <m_fulder> hm and how do I ping in win then? :P actionParsnip ?
[15:17] <Xanova> actionParsnip: No, on my motherboard, just like the ethernet...
[15:17] <Slart> guest1: nah.. I get the same thing on my machine.. I just have to enter those values manually.. what kind of monitor do you have?
[15:17] <m_fulder> aha just "ping IP" ?
[15:17] <Xanova> The only card i have in my machine is the graphic one (even the sound is on my motherboard)
[15:18] <guest1> its a hercules prophetview 720 (old but works great)
[15:18] <terminhell> w00t its raining
[15:18] <suman> candy_, You may need to power recycle your router. and check for the firewall. Also make sure that the connection which your computer has is from your router.
[15:18] <Xanova> actionParsnip: I know it's awful >_<
[15:18] <cmp>  erUSUL, Slart,  now iam using ubuntu 9.4 and my wireless device is working by default and i can connect internet so easy- but i need to upgrade my system to 9.10 and when i upgrade it my wireless device is not working, put in mind that the wireless is the only connection which is available for me now as i dont have cabled connection which means i cant connect if i upgraded to follow with you again - so i need to know how can i make my device working after upgra

[15:19] <guest1> do i have to alter that xconfig file thing?
[15:19] <actionParsnip> Xanova: no bad thing, maybe windows has a special software to reach it. You may have to websearch for your motherboard make/model to see if anyone has a fix
[15:19] <candy_> suman, i dont know how to do that, can u plz help me
[15:19] <m_fulder> actionParsnip  I can ping the ubuntu machine from my windows and vice-versa
[15:20] <Xanova> actionParsnip: oK

[15:21] <suman> candy_, have you gone through the link I sent you
[15:21] <actionParsnip> m_fulder: if you have shared folders in ubuntu then you can connect using: start -> run    \\ubuntuhostname\sharename
[15:21] <m_fulder> actionParsnip : but still I cant see the ubuntu in the network folder in windows ... i.e. can't access the shared folder from ubuntu :S

[15:21] <guest1> okay, copied that down
[15:22] <actionParsnip> m_fulder: if you use the start ->  run method is it ok?
[15:22] <Slart> guest1: have a look at this file.. it's from my machine and the file is located at /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[15:22] <Slart> guest1: http://pastebin.com/f7adbfc17
[15:22] <actionParsnip> m_fulder: dont use network folders, use run
[15:22] <m_fulder> oki
[15:22] <m_fulder> but what is the host name of my ubuntu?
[15:22] <cmp> erUSUL, guide me step by step how to do it and how to find out and how to know - so i can tell you and do it later by my self without disturbing you nor any one else if you dont mind :)
[15:22] <candy_> suman, thnks i m cheking
[15:23] <actionParsnip> m_fulder: run: hostname     in a terminal
[15:23] <Slart> guest1: the values we put in this file will override the automatic stuff.. so .. look at lines 30-37.. that's about my monitor
[15:23] <erUSUL> cmp: do « lshw -C Network » paste it
[15:23] <erUSUL> !paste | cmp
[15:23] <actionParsnip> guest1: Slart: I'd just use that xorg.conf file directly
[15:23] <Slart> guest1: you see the values for HorizSync and VertRefresh ? thats't he place you need to put your valyes
[15:24] <m_fulder> ah nice it works thanks a lot actionParsnip :D:D
[15:24] <Slart> actionParsnip: that might work too.. but we might as well put the correct values in =) since I've looked them up already =)
[15:24] <cmp> erUSUL, http://pastebin.com/m14533906
[15:24] <actionParsnip> m_fulder: cool
[15:24] <guest1> okay, so either try copying your details in or editing my own with these. i have backup already as tried messing with these - but it went wrong.
[15:25] <Slart> guest1: so.. open a terminal and run "gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf"    copy paste that command if you want
[15:25] <actionParsnip> slart: might be good enough to make the driver kick in and detect better settings (maybe)
[15:25] <Slart> actionParsnip: not sure if the driver will kick in.. or you think having sensible manual settings will make the edit stuff work again?
[15:26] <actionParsnip> Slart: i think so but i could be wrong, its free to try though
[15:26] <Slart> guest1: you can copy the entire file if you want.. I don't think there's anything special in there
[15:26] <erUSUL> cmp: you have a broadcom chip you should be using b43 driver ... but you are using wl
[15:26] <erUSUL> cmp: install the b43-fwcutter package
[15:27] <erUSUL> cmp: now that you have internet
[15:27] <orzech> ktoś polak ?
[15:27] <Slart> guest1: when you're done editing the file you just save it.. then we'll try rebooting

[16:05] <kalle> I have set my share to writable in xubuntu 9.10 samba but i still can only read the share not write to it, what do i need to change or check ?
[16:06] <Threetimes> Hi, what is the fastest VNC client for a 100 MBit lan? I'm using ubuntu 9.10 a client and windows xp as server.
[16:06] <Oasa> Screamo_smurf : thanks. It worked but may i know what actually is the thing that i downloaded ?
[16:06] <rek> hi,help!
[16:06] <rek> i don't hear any audio in you tube
[16:06] <rek> also in video games
[16:06] <ssn> hi guys
[16:06] <Pe1o> kalle, basic permissions maybe,  make sure the group can write to the share
[16:06] <Xanova> Guys, seriously i think i'm cursed ...
[16:07] <Screamo_Smurf> Oasa just some extras stuff that inst open source
[16:07] <ssn> can i chroot from a 32bit livecd into a 64bit ubuntu installation?
[16:07] <Screamo_Smurf> so they couldnt bundle it in
[16:07] <tarzeau> Threetimes: i think rdp and remote x are faster. and what's cheaper is to get gbit
[16:07] <Pe1o> !sound | rek start here
[16:07] <Oasa> okay Screamo Stuff
[16:07] <Oasa> thanks Screamo_smurf
[16:07] <Xanova> I tried to reboot with windows in order to know why can windows use my wireless card and ubuntu can't... Windows won' boot no more...
[16:07] <Threetimes> tarzeau: I have xp home only. and the software has to be free...
[16:07] <kalle> what groups would be guest ? is that nobody ?
[16:08] <rek> pelo i don't see any audio control
[16:08] <Screamo_Smurf> Xanova did you look up dual booting ubuntu and windows first?
[16:08] <tarzeau> Threetimes: remote x is free, look for xmingw
[16:08] <rek> mythbuntu
[16:08] <Xanova> A blue screen appear (i barely can see it) ten my machine reboots... (i'm using a brub)
[16:08] <tarzeau> Threetimes: or wait you connect from linux to windows or the other way around?
[16:08] <Xanova> Screamo_Smurf: wha do you mean ?
[16:08] <Threetimes> tarzeau: windows is the server
[16:08] <cmp> ok , i need any body here to help me please - i have installed  sudo aptitude install b43-fwcutter      and the out put is : http://pastebin.com/m54f11994          i need to know how can i keep my wireless working with the 9.10 because when i upgrade my sytem to 9.10 my wireless device is not recognized
[16:08] <Screamo_Smurf> ubuntu and windows dont get along
[16:09] <fakeer> tarzeau: i haven't created it yet.. should i??
[16:09] <tarzeau> Threetimes: that's not answering my question. what software do you run on the server?
[16:09] <Pe1o> kalle, I mean group access to the share folder in the folder properties,  guest is when you login as guess from gdm, that is something else,  you might want to make a new user with the name from the remote machine and give it access to the share folder that might also work
[16:09] <krysis> for me windows commits blue screen suicide if i don't use it for a long time with ubuntu side by side :/
[16:09] <Xanova> Screamo_Smurf: I insalled ubuntu on my external HDD
[16:09] <Screamo_Smurf> cmp the output looks fine
[16:09] <Screamo_Smurf> external as in usb?
[16:09] <Xanova> yep
[16:09] <Threetimes> tarzeau: i'm trying to play windows games on my laptop.
[16:09] <Screamo_Smurf> have you trid unplugging the hdd while booting?
[16:10] <Xanova> And my bios check 1s USB hen CD hen HDD
[16:10] <tarzeau> Threetimes: 3d?
[16:10] <Xanova> Nope
[16:10] <secret> tarzeau, and this is how its look like: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/174596/
[16:10] <Xanova> I used to work before...
[16:10] <Screamo_Smurf> well then unplug it
[16:10] <Screamo_Smurf> and try
[16:10] <rek> pelo
[16:10] <Threetimes> tarzeau: if possible, yes. I get like 5~10 fps with tightvnc, so it kinda works
[16:10] <Xanova> oK I'll try...
[16:10] <tarzeau> Threetimes: forget it!
[16:10] <Pe1o> rek what ?
[16:10] <cmp> screamo smurf, but what if i upgraded now to 9.10   will it work ? put in mind that the only connection which iam using now is wireless device - i dont have cabled connection so if i lost it i wouldnt be able to communicate here again ..
[16:10] <rek> pelo i don't see the control in mythbuntu
[16:11] <tarzeau> Threetimes: you wouldn't get much more with gbit... just play that sort of stuff locally
[16:11] <Screamo_Smurf> suman how long is awhile anyway?
[16:11] <actionParsnip> tarzeau: should be ok for turn based stuff ;)
[16:11] <Threetimes> tarzeau: no, i'll keep trying. or is tightvnc my best shot?
[16:11] <krisss117> #ubuntu.pl
[16:11] <tarzeau> secret: yes that's an networking problem
[16:11] <Pe1o> rek, sorry I don'T know anything about mythbuntu I use freevo myself
[16:11] <secret> tarzeau, btw if i would have connection problems how could ibe here?
[16:11] <tarzeau> actionParsnip: sucks, if you ask me
[16:11] <actionParsnip> tarzeau: me too
[16:11] <Screamo_Smurf> cmp you cant hook up wired at all?
[16:11] <tarzeau> theshadow: vnc is vnc, i don't see many differences between the clients/servers
[16:12] <tarzeau> theshadow: however i prefer remove x and rdp much better than vnc
[16:12] <Pelo> brb
[16:12] <tarzeau> secret: dns only maybe?
[16:12] <tarzeau> secret: or some funny iptables/firewall stuff? how would i know
[16:12] <Screamo_Smurf> i have major dns problems :(
[16:12] <tarzeau> secret: it's your equipment, not mine
[16:12] <secret> tarzeau, no idea chekcing network
[16:12] <cmp> no iam in a cafe now and i dont have internet connection at home - so thats why iam confused ..   screamo smurf,
[16:12] <actionParsnip> Screamo_Smurf: add 8.8.8.8 as a nameserver in /etc/resolv.conf
[16:12] <tarzeau> secret: maybe it's just the server. wait intrepid? isn't that stone age?
[16:12] <Threetimes> tarzeau: because tightvnc is using only 1/3 of my connection, and if i could multiply my framerate by 3... that would make 15~30 fps (in furmark, local is like 25 fps)
[16:13] <secret> tarzeau, no its now since one week

[16:14] <Michalxo> hello all! I have probelm and question in a one probelm :-) I "accidentally" removed 31-17 kernel and upgrade (and install) 31-19 kernel took over, but it did not wrote itself to menu.lst (upgraded to 9.10, but grub-legacy stayed) So here's the question, can I use 9.10 liveCD or should I DL 9.04 live and fix grub via Jaunty, or can I use karmic live and fix&upgrade to grub2?
[16:14] <Screamo_Smurf> guest2 are you on a laptop?
[16:14] <kalle> k ill try that pelo, thanx.
[16:14] <actionParsnip> lijil: you can but you will make a big mess of your packages
[16:14] <tarzeau> lijil: with simple software yes, with zoneminder, absolutely not so easily
[16:14] <dequeued> could someone point me in the right direction so I can at least try to diagnose this problem myself?
[16:14] <cicloner> thanks a lot <dequeued>
[16:14] <dequeued> how could I disable xdm on start?
[16:14] <actionParsnip> lijil: its not advised, they re lucid packages because they are made for lucid only
[16:15] <dequeued> could someone give me a hand? I just installed Ubuntu 9.10, the livedvd boots up to the desktop fine, but, when I try to boot it post-install, I just see a flickering text-login
[16:15] <tarzeau> dequeued: by it's startup script or by removing the package, or it's config files
[16:15] <cmp> screamo smurf, any help??

[16:22] <actionParsnip> dirk__: you could create an alias for the long command then you can fire it when needed
[16:22] <Xanova> Screamo_Smurf: Nope, the grub won't load with my USB HDD unplugged
[16:22] <Screamo_Smurf> ok well with it pluged in
[16:23] <dirk__> thx for the sugestion but i have loads of them and wanned  a way to not have to create aliases for all of them
[16:23] <actionParsnip> fromWinToLin: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/back-in-time-a-simple-backup-tool-for-ubuntu.html
[16:23] <Xanova> Yep it will, but when i choose windows, it can't launch: very brief bluescreen (i cant even read what it says) then my machine reboots
[16:23] <fromWinToLin> actionParsnip, I know how to use it, but there seems to be something odd going on when I use it over CIFS.
[16:24] <Screamo_Smurf> definatly sounds like grub ate your windows bootloader
[16:24] <olskolirc> where is the repository for kubuntu?
[16:24] <actionParsnip> dirk__: could create a script which takes a number as an arg and goes to the right folder
[16:24] <Xanova> ... or microsoft is punishing me for using a Linus OS :D
[16:24] <olskolirc> never mind
[16:24] <Screamo_Smurf> eh

[16:26] <archboxman> cmp:now I remember

[16:28] <guest2> still got a resolution issue with ubuntu 9.1 and geforce 6150 grpahics
[16:28] <fromWinToLin> actionParsnip, I select my home folder to be backed up. I have a CIFS share on a remote machine as the destination for the snapshots. After creating the initial backup, it seems to copy all of the files over again, even if they already exist in the previous snapshot. When I browse the CIFS share, I find that each snapshot directory is just as large as each other. (500 MB, 500 MB, 500 MB, etc.) However, the parent folder reads only 500 MB i
[16:28] <fromWinToLin> n size. However, the CIFS filesystem reports its available space decreasing significantly with each snapshot I create, even if the only chage was a few extra MB of files...
[16:28] <Xanova> terminhell: eh eh eh... IDK where the hell did i put my windows CD. I'm not even sure I still have it as y computer is 5-6years old...
[16:28] <fromWinToLin> actionParsnip, when I do "ls -l" in the snapshot folders, I do not see evidence of hard links.
[16:29] <Screamo_Smurf> Xanova you just might be cursed :S
[16:29] <actionParsnip> fromWinToLin: is the share mounted?
[16:29] <fromWinToLin> actionParsnip, yes.
[16:29] <cmp> all what iam worry now is - i want to upgrade but iam affraid that it will not work with 9,10 ... again i dont know have any cable connection to get you if  i lose the wireless driver  archboxman.
[16:29] <thisdotpheonix> hello, do any one know the widgets for ubuntu
[16:29] <thisdotpheonix> hello
[16:29] <Screamo_Smurf> if you repair your windows bootloader it will kill grub
[16:29] <fromWinToLin> actionParsnip, CIFS does support hard links, last I checked.
[16:29] <terminhell> Xanova: yikes, g/l thats the only legal way i know how to do it. (only way i know how actually)
[16:30] <fromWinToLin> actionParsnip, plus, BackInTime is meant to be used on CIFS / NFS.
[16:30] <jordanwb> I'm trying to install Ubuntu 9.10 amd64 via Wubi but it keeps failing because of an invalid parameter: http://pastebin.com/m21f024fa
[16:30] <archboxman> cmp: terminal > ping www.google.com pls tx
[16:30] <pim> hello. I have 2 soundcards and I want to setup one for recording and the other for playing. I go in systel => preferences => sound and select what I want. But for some reason, these settings change after suspend or reboot. How can I make my setup perm ?
[16:30] <Screamo_Smurf> Xanova im gueesing you could borrow or d/l one and just use it to restore the bootloader, i dont see how that would be illegal
[16:30] <actionParsnip> fromWinToLin: not something ive used bro, i use rsync
[16:31] <archboxman> cmp: is it connecting???
[16:31] <dicap> What is rsync
[16:31] <fromWinToLin> actionParsnip, BackInTime uses rsync and diff under the GUI.
[16:31] <actionParsnip> !rsync
[16:31] <bobbytek> "\e[5~": history-search-backward doesn't seem to work for me in /etc/inputrc
[16:31] <Screamo_Smurf> but that still brings us back to the fact that if you do that you wont be able to boot into ubuntu anymore
[16:31] <actionParsnip> fromWinToLin: why is a gui needed?
[16:31] <cmp> archboxman, it tells me  : PING tx (92.242.144.5) 56(124) bytes of data.
[16:31] <bobbytek> is that the pgup next to the home key?
[16:31] <bobbytek> it just prints a ~
[16:31] <fromWinToLin> actionParsnip, it's a very well laid out GUI for browsing through snapshots.
[16:32] <archboxman> yes because its connected are you using cable write now to chat???
[16:32] <terminhell> sorry Screamo_Smurf what was the original prob, i only seen a partial of it i guess
[16:32] <actionParsnip> fromWinToLin: well its giving you some crazy issues so is over complicating stuff
[16:32] <Xanova> Yeah i'll borrow a CD to someone. After all, i LEGALLY bought windows with my computer...
[16:32] <archboxman> cmp: eth0
[16:33] <bhuvi> when i disble bluetooth or wifi by pressing Fn+F5 in my lenovo notebook while using vista ,after rebooting into ubuntu i cannot enable them is there any way to enable it back?
[16:33] <Screamo_Smurf> he had winxp install on internal hdd, then install ubuntu on an external hdd, but grub is on the internal hdd and ate the windows mbr
[16:33] <bhuvi> when i disable bluetooth or wifi by pressing Fn+F5 in my lenovo notebook while using vista ,after rebooting into ubuntu i cannot enable them is there any way to enable it back?
[16:33] <cmp> archboxman. what does it mean ?
[16:33] <terminhell> Screamo_Smurf: so he just has to manually edit grub to point specifically to xp
[16:33] <fromWinToLin> actionParsnip, the thing is, I'm not sure if it's the application itself, or the way rsync / diff works over CIFS.
[16:33] <archboxman> cmp: are you using wifi or eth0 right now???
[16:33] <chakrit> I just can't get the enhanced desktop zoom in csm to work, however I can do the Win+Mouse drag to move windows ... I'm on asus eee any ideas?
[16:33] <Screamo_Smurf> bhuvi im gueesing boot into vista and undo it?
[16:34] <cmp> iam using wifi now archboxman. but iam on 9.4
[16:34] <archboxman> cmp: means we have a connection
[16:34] <archboxman> cmp: is this a netbook???
[16:34] <Xanova> Well thank you guys for helping me out, despite the fact that I'm cursed :p
[16:34] <nodrogkooc> Hi

[16:34] <cmp> yes its dell inspiron 1525 archboxman.
[16:34] <Xanova> Heya
[16:34] <bhuvi> ya i can do it , but ubuntu should have a way to enable it?
[16:34] <jordanwb> I'm trying to install Ubuntu 9.10 amd64 via Wubi but it keeps failing because of an invalid parameter: http://pastebin.com/m21f024fa
[16:34] <Screamo_Smurf> terminhell he said there was an option to boot into windows, but when he trys he gets a flash of a blue screen then a reboot
[16:34] <nodrogkooc> having real problems with my sound on 9.10 since Jan
[16:34] <I^llGetOverIt> what does it means? configure: error: Enchant library not found or too old. Use --disable-spell to build without spell plugin.
[16:35] <terminhell> Xanova: your not cursed. just google grub multiple hdd's
[16:35] <dicap> i have a problem with compiz-fusion
[16:35] <dicap>  I don't have any graphics options
[16:35] <bhuvi> Screamo_Smurf , ya i can do it , but ubuntu should have a way to enable it?
[16:35] <archboxman> cmp: see I remember the last time you gave me a screenshot of this device your using Ubuntu netbook remix...
[16:35] <Fallobst> is here anybody who can help me with moneyplex-problems ?
[16:35] <lunaphyte> i don't like this new behavior of apt-get auto installing recommended packages.  how can i turn it off?
[16:35] <bhuvi> Screamo_Smurf : ya i can do it , but ubuntu should have a way to enable it?
[16:35] <I^llGetOverIt> where i must put the command --disable-spell, ./configure --disable-spell?
[16:35] <dicap> can some =body help me
[16:35] <Screamo_Smurf> bhuvi i dont know, and since you have been asking the same question for the past 15 minutes i doubt anyone else in here knows either
[16:36] <qshan> Does the Ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso image have ssh enabled? We have a laptop without a working screen and want to get into it over the network.
[16:36] <archboxman> I don't have my netbook anymore and they changed the interface can you still get to the desktop??
[16:36] <actionParsnip> fromWinToLin: the access is managed by the kernel using the mount options used, the files should be seen etc. maybe its a glitch in the gui app. Have you tried with ordinary rsync to test if the app you are using ahs issues or not
[16:36] <cmp> do you want to check again what iam using now archboxman... this will make it more clear ... just tell me how to make it
[16:36] <dicap>  what can I do to have any graphics options
[16:36] <bhuvi> Screamo_Smurf : may be i should file a bug report i think ,looking for people who have the same problem
[16:36] <nodrogkooc> anynody help with my sound issue ?
[16:37] <Screamo_Smurf> bhuvi have you tried googling it?
[16:37] <actionParsnip> !anyone | Fallobst
[16:37] <nodrogkooc> Posted details on http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=3ebe1b94a5729d0cd69d6a5efafd9a7927071b55
[16:37] <fromWinToLin> actionParsnip, actually, maybe on second thought, I'm not understanding hard-links properly.
[16:37] <archboxman> cmp I don't have my netbook anymore and they changed the interface can you still get to the desktop??
[16:37] <actionParsnip> qshan: not by default, you could remaster the ISO to make it enable at boot
[16:37] <qshan> actionParsnip: thanks, good idea
[16:37] <archboxman> cmp your connected to internet just that interface is giving me problems
[16:37] <bhuvi> Screamo_Smurf :yep but couldnt find any useful resources
[16:37] <Fallobst> :D
[16:37] <cmp> no archboxman, this is the only thing i have - and i need to continue my work and study on it :(
[16:37] <AngelwingedDevil> hi people! I just upgraded my ubuntu to 8.10 from 8.04 before, the mediacontrol buttons on my keyboard worked with rhythmbox, now they don't, any suggestions to get them working again :D?
[16:38] <AngelwingedDevil> :D*
[16:38] <qshan> archboxman: where does one go to figure out how to do something like that?
[16:38] <fromWinToLin> actionParsnip, I am confused why the available space on the CIFS file system would decrease if hard-links are being created. (If a 500 MB file has another hard link created, the remaining space on the CIFS file system should not decrease by another 500 MB.)
[16:38] <qshan> archboxman: google i'm assuming
[16:38] <e01> hello
[16:39] <Fallobst> my reinerSCT dont want work with moneyplex...
[16:39] <milesc> hi, last night i used mkfs.ext3 on a new drive that had never been used before.  I did not create any partitions and instead just formatted the entire device to ext3.  What are the ramification of doing so, and if you're able to, why do the tutorials always say to make a partition?
[16:39] <Screamo_Smurf> AngelwingedDevil in system> preferences> keyboards shortcuts i think
[16:39] <e01> i see that my cpu is avg 40% load, is it normal in ubuntu
[16:39] <actionParsnip> fromWinToLin: the hard link will appear as the same file so will appear to take the extra space (afaik)
[16:39] <archboxman> qshan: she needs  go to ubuntu remix channel if they have one here in irc
[16:39] <cmp> archboxman. i know iam asking here too much and i might disturb you or others - but i really need to fix all this - i need to study and work -and iam poor girl in this system - but i need it very much
[16:39] <e01> because on slak it was 3-4% avg
[16:39] <Screamo_Smurf> e01 everytime i open system moitor it uses about 50% cpu

[16:40] <coz_> Screamo_Smurf,  let me check mine here hold on
[16:40] <qshan> archboxman: thanks
[16:40] <I^llGetOverIt> what does it means? configure: error: Enchant library not found or too old. Use --disable-spell to build without spell plugin.
[16:40] <I^llGetOverIt> where i must put the command --disable-spell, ./configure --disable-spell?
[16:40] <terminhell> milesc: you just made a partion...
[16:40] <terminhell> *partition
[16:40] <BluesKaj> milesc, probly because the tutorial assumes you have a ntfs /windows file system on the drive , and in order to installl ubuntu you need ext
[16:40] <actionParsnip> red: does it do that in all players?
[16:41] <milesc> not so much terminhell
[16:41] <coz_> Screamo_Smurf,  mm not here... when system monitor opens is there any process that is actually taking up cpu time?

[16:41] <terminhell> milesc: sure its not flagged, your half way there
[16:41] <Screamo_Smurf> nope, just sys monitor
[16:41] <coz_> Screamo_Smurf,  you could open a terminal and type   top     or install htop   and in terminal type  htop

[16:41] <AngelwingedDevil> now I feel stupid :p
[16:41] <coz_> Screamo_Smurf,  you will or should get a detialed list of things that are using up cpu and memory
[16:41] <cmp> archboxman, i hope you will help me .
[16:42] <milesc> ?  The drive is mounted and working without showing any partition table on it at all
[16:42] <Screamo_Smurf> cmp do you have a friends house you could go to and use internet?

[16:43] <kalle> I installed nautilus  but cannot find it in the menus, i see it is for gnome and I am running xubuntu, perhaps only kde is supported ?
[16:43] <milesc> the drive device is /dev/sdc, instead of partitioning it and having a partition like /dev/sdc1, i instead immediately ran mkfs.ext3 on /dev/sdc.  It completed and I subsequently mounted /dev/sdc to a directory and it reads and writes.
[16:43] <e01> Screamo_Smurf, 70%
[16:44] <e01> when i close conky show 40%

[16:57] <archboxman> cmp: quite trying to upgrade there having problems with 9.10 right now ... you need to leave it alone...
[16:57] <Screamo_Smurf> archboxman what cmp told me earlier was that he wanted to update to 9.10 and wanted to make sure his wifi would still work
[16:58] <Isy> sebsebseb
[16:58] <hmmz2k> I plugged in my hdmi cable that is connected to my tv and found the screen in my display properties.. but when i hit apply my laptop display went black and nothing showed up on the tv and now the only way to get a picture on my laptop is by unplugging the hdmi.. If i plug it in and hit detect monitors my screen goes black
[16:58] <hmmz2k> any ideas?
[16:58] <avi__> so im dualbooting OS X and ubuntu (on external drive), and when booting to ubuntu, GRUB starts loading then stalls with "GRUB _" and the underscore flashing. it neverprogesses
[16:58] <hmmz2k> anyone know how i can reset the settings
[16:58] <hmmz2k> and mirror the displays
[16:59] <cmp> ok archboxman , i will tell you ,   i use now ubuntu 9.4 and when i install 9.4 the wifi working fine ... but i need to upgrade to make it 9.10 so i can go on with my studying - but when i go for 9.10 i lose the driver of my wireless device ... i want to know how to install the driver later if i dont have connection - or to get the driver and then install it while iam not connected ...
[16:59] <AlTheKiller> Delete .nvidia-xsettings or w/e it's called in your ~
[16:59] <hmmz2k> I plugged in my hdmi cable that is connected to my tv and found the screen in my display properties.. but when i hit apply my laptop display went black and nothing showed up on the tv and now the only way to get a picture on my laptop is by unplugging the hdmi..

[16:59] <hmmz2k> anyone know how i can reset the settings
[16:59] <hmmz2k> and mirror the displays
[17:00] <AlTheKiller> hmmz2k: Stop pasting shit over and over
[17:00] <avi__> i already have a bootloader, GRUB is pointless in my setup
[17:00] <Screamo_Smurf> avi__ why would you want to bypass grub?
[17:00] <archboxman> Screamo_Smurf: this is not goning to be your problem 9.10 has intrudced a lot of proven software to ubuntu such as upstart and udev and grub2.... I think there using ubuntu users as geneepigs for this experment...
[17:00] <avi__> because im dualbooting,
[17:00] <avi__> and grub is not loading
[17:00] <Screamo_Smurf> dual booting with windows?
[17:00] <avi__> no
[17:00] <avi__> OS X
[17:00] <avi__> on an iMac
[17:00] <archboxman> \un proven
[17:00] <cmp> archboxman, i cant avoid upgrading ... as my programs which i will be need to study- will be included the 9.10

[17:06]  * archboxman scratching head
[17:06] <trijntje> ZykoticK9, thanks, I just assumed /testing/lucid would point to the latest
[17:06] <jonas3> does anybody know a good video converter for intrepid?
[17:07] <Xanova> avi___: yes you can if you overwrite windows
[17:07] <capron> Xanova,  What windows driver do you want too install ?
[17:07] <Xanova> A wireless card driver.
[17:07] <avi__> xanova, not using windows. iMac
[17:07] <steffan> !eyecandy | jazz
[17:07] <Xanova> avi___: that's the same
[17:07] <capron> Xanova, I mean you can not take any windows driver and install it using wine
[17:07] <avi__> well i'm dualbooting..
[17:07] <ardchoille> jonas3: What are you trying to convert into?
[17:07] <archboxman> cmp: well tell me the name of this program that requires 9.10???
[17:07] <milesc> i've got my new hd reformatting right now, but it's ungodly slow i think, command: "mkfs -t ext4 /dev/sdc1", it's writing 2 inode tables every 5 seconds or so, and it says it needs to do more than 11000... is something wrong or is it usually that slow?
[17:08] <avi__> and I already have abootloader (rEFIt)
[17:08] <Xanova> capron: I know, if only it was tha easy :)
[17:08] <archboxman> what is the software conversion tool starts with an m??? ohhhhhhhh
[17:08] <looter> I am trying to connect to a windows xp share from my ubuntu 8.10 laptop and having no succsss. Can someone help?
[17:08] <avi__> GRUB is pointless in my setup
[17:08] <Xanova> capron: But there is no other way ?
[17:08] <avi__> can I disable during install?
[17:08] <Tm_T> avi__: just don't install it, it should be asked somewhere
[17:09] <jazz> steffan,  thank you
[17:09] <Tm_T> avi__: but then you have to make sure your system will boot
[17:09] <cmp> its Non-linear video editing tools archboxman.
[17:09] <avi__> Tim_T: that'smy question.
[17:09] <capron> Xanova, What driver do you want too install ?
[17:09] <avi__> Tim_T: HOW to not install GRUB when installing ubuntu
[17:09] <Tm_T> avi__: it just should ask it in the very end
[17:09] <avi__> Tim_T: remember, i'm duablooting.so I already have a bootloader
[17:10] <archboxman> mencoder can convert wmv files. However, it seems that files created with mencoder from .wmv can not be played in many mediaplayers, namely xine. Adding -ofps 23.976 to the command-line makes files made with mencoder from .wmv play in xine.
[17:10] <avi__> oh ok
[17:10] <avi__> ill check.
[17:10] <brian813> anybody let me know y does my ubuntu freezes whenever i watch youtube?
[17:10] <Tm_T> avi__: btw I am no Tim (;
[17:10] <avi__> ;)
[17:10] <Isy> sebsebseb
[17:10] <Xanova> capron: The driver for the Fujitsu Siemens Computers WLAN 802.11b/g D1705/D1706 wireless card
[17:10] <archboxman> mencoder is the fastest way to convert video :) hey look at me mom
[17:10] <trijntje> brian813, freeze as in 'needs a cold reboot'?
[17:11] <Serraphyn> I just installed php5 with apt-get install php5 and when I do a http://localhost/index.php it tries to save the file instead of processing it.  Any ideas?
[17:11] <ardchoille> Serraphyn: There's info on that in the troubleshooting tips
[17:11] <haffe> Don't you need mod-php as well?
[17:11] <ardchoille> !lamp | Serraphyn
[17:11] <Ganymede> Serraphyn, in your webserver config, you didn't ask it to process .php files with PHP, so it think it's just a standard file
[17:12] <brian813> i'm sound on that term, i'm a newbie
[17:12] <Screamo_Smurf> Serraphyn your name sounds familiar
[17:12] <looter> I cannot ping any devices on my internal network but I can ping things outside of it......
[17:12] <avi__> Is there an IRC for apple-ubuntu users?
[17:12] <Xanova> capron: An idea or am I doomed ? :p
[17:12] <ardchoille> Serraphyn: See the section "Troubleshooting PHP 5"
[17:12] <Ganymede> looter, if the other machines are windows machines, their firewalls might block pings
[17:12] <brian813> well what happened was, i cud still move my mouse cursor but not able to click on anything on that youtube page as well as in the OS
[17:12] <Serraphyn> ardchoille: I don't want to use someone elses setup for this I'm trying to learn to set it up on my own
[17:12] <exaby1e> does somebody here know howto write a sobby config file?
[17:12] <brian813> then i had to manually reboot ht epc
[17:13] <jazz> also, if i compress a bunch of files can it be unzipped in windows?
[17:13] <iceroot> jazz: yes
[17:13] <Xanova> jazz: if it's .zip i guess
[17:13] <looter> the device i'm trying to access a share on is a windows machine(which has zone alarm installed).....but I noticed i cannot ping my iphone either....
[17:13] <ardchoille> Serraphyn: Those troubleshooting tips will help you with that
[17:13] <Screamo_Smurf> anybody know why im trying to connect to 8.8.8.8 when i try to apt-get install something?
[17:13] <Xanova> jazz: or you know, any windows archive exention
[17:13] <iceroot> Screamo_Smurf: sudo apt-get update
[17:13] <Seveas> Screamo_Smurf, probably because you've set it as nameserver in /etc/resolv.conf
[17:13] <looter> also worth noting this is a FiOS network
[17:14] <looter> *home network
[17:14] <Seveas> 8.8.8.8 is the google public dns server
[17:14] <actionParsnip> Screamo_Smurf: 8.8.8.8 is the google public dns
[17:14] <Screamo_Smurf> yes i know
[17:14] <Screamo_Smurf> but
[17:14] <actionParsnip> zing
[17:14] <Screamo_Smurf> its not in the resolv.conf file
[17:14] <avi__> Aha! I CAN not install GRUB in Ubuntu install!
[17:14] <avi__> Fingers crossed!
[17:14] <danimal_garage> hi guys, i think i screwed up my display settings

[17:14] <kalbo^> ?
[17:14] <jazz> thanks i had to zip some files for a  window user i dont think he'll know how to unzip them...
[17:15] <archboxman> avi__: what???
[17:15] <Screamo_Smurf> jazz is it .zip?
[17:15] <Serraphyn> ardchoille: thanks just needed to a2enmod php5 and restart
[17:15] <avi__> GRUB was failing on my setup,
[17:15] <raven> do you know any tool that "converts" monophonic audio (recordings) to midi files?
[17:15] <ardchoille> Serraphyn: :)
[17:15] <avi__> and is useless in my setup
[17:15] <iceroot> jazz: windows can unzip files without installing another tool
[17:15] <avi__> so im not installing it
[17:15] <jazz> Screamo_Smurf,  now it is
[17:15] <danimal_garage> i cannot see the screen in order to restore it to the previous state. everything is all lined and distorted
[17:15] <jazz> i did it as .tar.zg at first
[17:15] <archboxman> avi__: grub doesn't fail are you using 9.10???
[17:15] <Screamo_Smurf> well then unless the other person is really really stupid they shouldnt have problems :)
[17:16] <iceroot> is there a way to have a scroll-buffer in a screen-session?
[17:16] <avi__> yup.
[17:16] <trijntje> brian813, does that only happen on youtube or on every site with flash?
[17:16] <avi__> my setup is iMac dualboot OSX and 9.10
[17:16] <jazz> lol he is more like a brute warrior, you should see him when the cd tray gets stuck
[17:16] <avi__> I already have a ubuntu-friendly bootloader on the imac,
[17:16] <trijntje> !who | brian813
[17:16] <kalbo^> i got this error while booting up my ubuntu "mount of filesystem failed"
[17:16] <avi__> GRUB has no function in my setup
[17:16] <iceroot> !enter | avi__
[17:17] <archboxman> avi__: thats grub2 and grub2 sucks... its still in developmental stage and there using ubuntu as a genie pig
[17:17] <avi__> archboxman: how to downgrade?
[17:17] <archboxman> avi__: use 9.04 jaunty
[17:17] <avi__> and then upgrade to .10?
[17:18] <jazz> sorry for the noob questions but i really feel so "back of the lunch room eating alone" here lol
[17:18] <raven> i am looking for a way to CONVERT monophonic AUDIO to MIDI
[17:18] <kalbo^> i got this error while booting up my ubuntu "mount of filesystem failed"
[17:18] <brian813>  only in youtube
[17:18] <Screamo_Smurf> i think what archboxman is trying to say is that 9.10 sucks
[17:18] <avi__> archboxman: well its installing w/o grub right now, if it doesn't work, ill follow your suggestion.thanks.
[17:18] <capron> Xanova,  I guess you are doomed.  ndiswrapper have some support for windws wifi drivers but I dont think they  include your card.
[17:18] <archboxman> avi__: no upgrade there are problems in 9.10 with a bunch of released updates right now to include upstart and grub2 stay away till they fix them

[17:20] <archboxman> avi__: it the grub vs grub2 and upstart uses udev and hal.... not just hal alone this was being developed by fedora...
[17:20] <spoooooon> screamo_smurf, franzn: this is FROM a livecd :) yeah, sudo is ineffective :(

[17:21] <en1gma> !ps3
[17:21] <Phosis> Im using shift page up and down, but only the bottom part is available
[17:21] <archboxman> spoooooon: use livecd and find files and save them
[17:21] <iceroot> Screamo_Smurf: or better, do want you want but dont recommend it here
[17:21] <jazz> whats the smallest partition space available for root? considering the updates and package installs,...

[17:21] <Phosis> Is there a way to see all my files in a folder without having to output it to a txt file?
[17:21] <archboxman> spoooooon: does grub come up when you reboot

[17:22] <trijntje> brian813, is your browser firefox? if so, type this in a terminal: firefox > output.txt
[17:22] <Screamo_Smurf> -/
[17:22] <Phosis> Ah, no. ls is showing hidden files, but there are too many entries, so I cant scroll back through them all
[17:22] <trijntje> !backup
[17:22] <iceroot> Phosis: man ls
[17:22] <archboxman> avi__: they released 9.10 in oct 26 2009 and still having problems now...

[17:22] <jazz> i hought 15000mb wouldnt be enough however im only using 27% and my /home is almost full. id like to try other distros but  retain 9.10ubuntu as my main.
[17:22] <kalbo^> i got this error while booting up my ubuntu "mount of filesystem failed", what kind of error is this? need some help guys
[17:22] <ZykoticK9> funickser, it's typically not there by default but it's located at /etc/X11/xorg.conf -- if you use nvidia "sudo nvidia-xconfig" to generate one
[17:22] <iceroot> Phosis: there are options to ingore hidden-files
[17:22] <spoooooon> archboxman: yeah, grub is fine- ubuntu aborts on mounting filesystems (swap, specifially)
[17:22] <trijntje> hi peet, feel free to ask
[17:23] <vng> trijntje: thanks
[17:23] <peet> how to remove grub?
[17:23] <Phosis> I dont want to ignore hidden ones, I want to be able to scroll up and down more than one page in terminal to see everything that comes up
[17:23] <funickser> humm
[17:23] <archboxman> spoooooon: there should be a recovery mode when grub comes up :)
[17:23] <Poul|Raider> Hello, hoping someone wanna comment on this, im about to build a little server. I found Asus z8na-d6, 1 Quad Xeon E5504, 8gb Ram(2x4), 1 Intelx25-m ssd 34nm80gb, and wondering if anyone got anything to consider before buying. How big an power supply would i need ?
[17:23] <funickser> so i have to create by my own hand my xorg.conf????
[17:23] <ardchoille> Phosis: You should be able to scroll, I can scroll here in gnome-terminal
[17:23] <ZykoticK9> funickser, no
[17:23] <cmp> oh god - now one will Help here ?
[17:23] <danimal_garage> noone knows how to edit/restore xorg.conf when you cant read the screen?
[17:24] <archboxman> spoooooon: if not use livecd save your data to cdrw or dvdrw
[17:24] <Phosis> I can only scroll maybe one or two pages worth.
[17:24] <iWolf> Poul|Raider: Depends
[17:24] <bigtom21485> so im transitioning from windows and itunes to ubuntu and id like to keep using my ipod...anyone recommend an alternative to itunes that works with ubuntu and my 120gb ipod?

[17:24] <peet> I tried to install Ubuntu on an external drive, but it doesn't boot, but it installed grub on my main HD, and now I can't even boot Windows
[17:24] <ZykoticK9> funickser, stop gdm "sudo service gdm stop" then use "sudo Xorg -configure" and it will put on the /root that you can rename/copy
[17:24] <iceroot> Phosis: also "ls" is ignoring hidden-files by default
[17:24] <Screamo_Smurf> cmp here ill help, if you want to make usre your wifi will keep working, DO NOT upgrade
[17:24] <ardchoille> Phosis: ls -la /folder | less  <- and then use the pageup/down keys
[17:24] <kalbo^> i got this error while booting up my ubuntu "mount of filesystem failed", what kind of error is this? need some help guys
[17:24] <iceroot> Phosis: to see hidden-files you have to use "ls -all"
[17:24] <peet> I only get a "grub rescue" menu
[17:24] <Screamo_Smurf> untill you have access to another source of internet
[17:24] <Poul|Raider> iWolf, im clueless, thers no big graphic card so do it need to be alot more then 550w ?

[17:36] <archboxman> avi__: still playing with 9.10???
[17:36] <ipatrol_> iceroot: how can I get WEP to work?
[17:36] <avi__> archboxman: yup. i'm going to try 9.04 now.
[17:36] <iWolf> 9.04, not as pretty
[17:36] <iWolf> :\
[17:37] <archboxman> avi__: wait lets not just yet
[17:37] <avi__> archboxman: im all ears.
[17:37] <archboxman> avi__: give me some info is this a dual boot
[17:37] <bigtom21485> Screamo_Smurf: 120gb ipod classic
[17:37] <ipatrol_> bigtom21485: which classic?
[17:38] <ipatrol_> really old, shiny, matte (these are all different ipods)
[17:38] <archboxman> avi__: are you going to have both windows and ubuntu on the same computer
[17:38] <capron> ipatrol_,  Do you use 9.10 and NetworkManger ?
[17:38] <ipatrol_> yes
[17:38] <mikeconcepts> I have ubuntu on a persistent flash drive, how can I create images and backup across the network? partimage?
[17:38] <avi__> archboxman: yes, 2008 iMac running latest apple OS X. I use software called rEFIt, to replace to Apple bootloader. It is linux friendly (and ubuntu).At the refit screen, I get my internal HD with OS X, and the external Ubuntu.
[17:38] <bigtom21485> for now, i will only be using ubuntu..however in the future i will run dual boot
[17:38] <ipatrol_> iceroot: if they are installed by default with 9.10
[17:38] <bigtom21485> i dont rememebr which generation it is, but ill find out hold on
[17:38] <iWolf> !fr
[17:39] <avi__> archboxman:problem is, ubuntu won't load,it stalls with "GRUB"text  on screen
[17:39] <ipatrol_> ubottu: fr
[17:39] <ipatrol_> no entry for fr
[17:39] <archboxman> avi__: yes, mac runs a linux kernel... ubuntu 9.10 with upstart may be the problem for that kinda setup
[17:40] <Screamo_Smurf> avi__ sounds like grub installed anyway
[17:40] <Screamo_Smurf> or wasnt deleted

[17:43] <avi__> why would I want to update?
[17:43] <jeffreyf> How do I automagically kill a user who is idle more than 60 minutes?

[17:52] <Shadowww> VMware player is free.
[17:52] <ipatrol_> !free
[17:52] <ChrisTX> but it's not free, use VirtualBox

[17:59] <Guest89510> I do not understand....I have a headless ubuntu server install, upon fresh boot it works fine....ssh, nfs, etc...however after a certain amount of time...the server is still powered on...but ssh, nfs, etc do not work...what could be the problem? Any recent update or something screwing anything up?
[17:59] <brad[]> you can't delude yourself into thinking virtualbox is superior  to VMware just because it's free!
[17:59] <arand> erUSUL: luist: Currently not, you need to go to tor's page and add their repo.
[17:59] <archboxman> Shadowww: you can convert video in ffmpeg , but it is not a gui interface for ipod
[17:59] <ohsix> what am i looking at if my brightness keys send the wrong events; as viewed in xev
[17:59] <Darkben> ivansmo: glad to hear
[17:59] <root> apt-get upgrade
[17:59] <Shadowww> archboxman, what is iPod? some overpriced shit from apple?
[17:59] <archboxman> Shadowww: there is a gui for ffmpeg can't remember the name
[18:00] <Shadowww> ivansmo, VLC is slow shit
[18:00] <arand> luist: But if you just wnat to access a specific page there are a lot of proxy site whih you can easily tunnel though though (provided you can get to the proxy site though)
[18:00] <Tm_T> Shadowww: please watch your language

[18:01] <IdleOne> !ot | archboxman Shadowww

[18:01] <iWolf> Ubuntu really takes advantage of my 2.8 GHz computer
[18:01] <Shadowww> msi wind u100
[18:01] <iWolf> With windows, it's about 1.0 GHz
[18:01] <Shadowww> ivansmo, CoreAVC + Windows Media Player 12
[18:01] <archboxman> Shadowww: your crazy go away
[18:01] <Shadowww> best combo.

[18:04] <NetScr1be> do not click on Shadowww's link
[18:04] <ardchoille> Thank you jpds
[18:04] <arand> luist: Ah, then you'd need to proxy through a specific country... And tor, due to it's anonymity goal, goes randomly. Look at some proxy webpage wich is in the neccessary country, and see if that can get you there..
[18:04] <Huuhkaja> NetScr1be: I clicked
[18:04] <Huuhkaja> is that bad?
[18:04] <m4tic> kalbo did u use wubi?
[18:05] <shad0www_> SUP
[18:05] <vasko12341> hi, I have a problem with pulseaudio - it doesn't remember my setings when I restart my laptop.  My ubuntu is version 9.10 and I didn't have problems before with 8.10
[18:05] <luist> arand, do you know one already? the only accepted countries are us/ca
[18:05] <shad0www_> I've heard I am not well-cum here?
[18:05] <IdleOne> !ops | shad0www_
[18:05] <kalbo^> m4tic: yes
[18:06] <archboxman> NetScr1be: just goes to prove how sorry windows is win32 process failed so now you have to restart windows ,becuase of the problem with app... or hopefully windows just cut out and gave the error msg
[18:06] <ivansmo> VLC is great, maybe subtitles could be more precise but I will get usetoit
[18:06] <ekim1> what do I need to use my zune and listen/add music in Ubuntu?
[18:06] <arand> luist: No, and we're offtopic by now...
[18:06] <shad0www__> why not?
[18:06] <gdiz> hello everyone does anyone know if it is possible to change the vino server so it only allows keyboard/mouse input and no visual output, or is there a vnc client that only sends keyboard/mouse events but receives no screen image?
[18:06] <kalbo^> m4tic: yes, i used wubi
[18:07] <Darkben> ivansmo: What do you mean?
[18:07] <IdleOne> jpds: he is going to continue to evade. that is 3 diff ip's he uses now
[18:07] <Huuhkaja> !ops shad0www__
[18:07] <jpds> Huuhkaja: Already gone.
[18:07] <ohsix> ekim1: if you put it into mtp mode most media players should be able to do both
[18:07] <m4tic> but does ur win7 bootup?
[18:07] <Shadowww_> onoes i so scared

[18:07] <Huuhkaja> !bootup
[18:07] <Huuhkaja> !boot
[18:07] <kalbo^> m4tic: yes, with no errors
[18:07] <ekim1> ohsix, put the zune into "mtp mode"?
[18:07] <ivansmo> Subtitles dont shown all the time many text is missing, I wached this movie last night on wifes WIN and it works great
[18:08] <ivansmo> Here some text is missing
[18:08] <ivansmo> But that is not problem any way I have to learn english :)
[18:08] <Shadowww_> lern to ban mayb?
[18:08] <ChrisTX> you fail at banning
[18:08] <Shadowww_> indeed
[18:08] <Shadowww_> lols
[18:08] <m4tic> well, i have never installed ubuntu with wubi, so i can't really offer any good avice on that, maybe some1 else has info here, or search on google. jst write the error message you get there
[18:09] <Darkben> ivansmo: I think that's problem of subtitle itself, not VLC
[18:09] <ekim1> ohsix, or do I need to set rhythmbox a certain way?
[18:09] <ipatrol_> jpds: +b *then* kick
[18:09] <Shadowww_> ipatrol_, he did so
[18:09] <ohsix> ekim1: ah, nevermind, you cant do that; it uses a proprietary extension to mtp that glues it to wmp10+
[18:09] <Shadowww_> * jpds sets ban on *!*@@80.232.251.*
[18:09] <Shadowww_> * davekane (~devdatta@59.95.1.100) has joined #ubuntu
[18:09] <Shadowww_> * You have been kicked from #ubuntu by jpds (Shadowww_)
[18:09] <FloodBot3> Shadowww_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:09] <kalbo^> m4tic: thanks
[18:09] <ivansmo> OK Darkben I will try with other movies and subtitles, anyway Im glad to use xubuntu
[18:09] <Liquid-Silence> lol

[18:10] <[V13]Axel> ... THe hell?
[18:10] <ipatrol_> !ops
[18:10] <ipatrol_> vasko12341: +b
[18:10] <Liquid-Silence> you know the main reason I never changed to ubuntu is because of the community
[18:10] <Liquid-Silence> There are so many idiots here :(
[18:11] <[V13]Axel> What's wrong with the community?
[18:11] <m4tic> what abwt the community
[18:11] <[V13]Axel> AH.
[18:11] <[V13]Axel> I agree.
[18:11] <kalbo^> m4tic: is there a difference?
[18:11] <ekim1> so there is no way to use ubuntu to listen or add music to a zune??  Is that what I am hearing?
[18:11] <ardchoille> Liquid-Silence: That isn't needed here
[18:11] <NetScr1be> well this is embarrassing :-/
[18:11] <Liquid-Silence> [V13]Axel: you don;t see stuff like this in archlinux etc...
[18:11] <archboxman> Liquid-Silence: there is nothing wrong with community??? Just to much going right now with this
[18:11] <[V13]Axel> There are quite a few idiots in the community itself, but you don't NEED the community to learn stuff.
[18:11] <kbrosnan> trolls != community member
[18:11] <Tm_T> !ot | Liquid-Silence
[18:11] <kalbo^> m4tic: is there a difference? installing ubuntu using wubi from installing it on a live cd
[18:11] <archboxman> Liquid-Silence: hey I use archlinux
[18:11] <ivansmo> Guys You helped me werry much, now I would ask one more for some day last question I hope so :)   What do You think, why I have sound on headphones and not on speakers
[18:12] <[V13]Axel> I've been using Ubuntu for a while, and I've been doing things using Google's results. XD
[18:12] <m4tic> kalbo: yes, ubuntu runs differently on an NTFS file system, but i doubt it has anything to do with it on ur issue
[18:12] <ipatrol_> can an op please +v everyone here then +?
[18:12] <candy_> ivansmo, just check in settings if u have givven option for only speakers
[18:12] <ipatrol_> *+m
[18:12] <viajante>  how do I make grub read menu.lst?
[18:12] <NetScr1be> Flame-bait Alert  Liquid Silence trolling for flame bait
[18:13] <bad_alloc> hello i have an issue with the Qtcreator 1.3.1 under ubuntu 8.10: since i hab to install from the .bin file i have no integrated API reference. how do i add it now?
[18:13] <[V13]Axel> viajante: What version of Ubuntu are you using?
[18:13] <m4tic> Liquid-Silence: its not only the ubuntu community
[18:13] <viajante> karmic
[18:13] <candy_> ivansmo, go to volume logo, right clik, preferences and then see ur setting there
[18:13] <[V13]Axel> Ah. You can't.
[18:13] <jpds> !ot | m4tic, NetScr1be
[18:13] <[V13]Axel> YOu have to install the older version of grub, viajante.
[18:13] <candy_> ivansmo, hope u get the solution..
[18:13] <ipatrol_> someone, anyone: why isn't my WEP key working
[18:13] <ardchoille> Ignore the trolls, folks
[18:14] <viajante> [V13]Axel, why?
[18:14] <[V13]Axel> viajante: It uses GRUB2, which uses a different configuration file. You have to edit files that the command 'update-grub' reads from.
[18:14] <archboxman> ipatrol_: how did you setup this wep??
[18:14] <NetScr1be> ardchoille I just told off for saying essentially the same thing
[18:14] <[V13]Axel> viajante: Do some research on Wikipedia about GRUB2, it'll tell how to change things safely.
[18:15] <erUSUL> !grub2 | viajante
[18:15] <archboxman> ipatrol_: were are you importing the Wep key to ???
[18:15] <[V13]Axel> Ah, better resource.
[18:15] <[V13]Axel> Hey guys, quick question. How do I remove unneeded kernel images that show up in GRUB? I know how to remove their GRUB entries, but what's the command to remove the actual kernel image files?
[18:15] <[V13]Axel> This is in Jaunty.
[18:15] <m4tic> viajante: what are you trying to change in grub?
[18:15] <Blubbi> sudo apt-get remove linux-image-"versionyoudontneed"
[18:15] <NetScr1be> axel I may have the same issue
[18:16] <viajante> [V13]Axel, does the last kernel update grub configuration?

[18:16] <[V13]Axel> What do you mean, viajante?
[18:16] <NetScr1be> Blubbi does that remove the folders in usr/src?
[18:16] <arand> [V13]Axel: Also remove the two -headers packages related to that specific version..
[18:16] <bad_alloc> (repost) i have an issue with the Qtcreator 1.3.1 under ubuntu 8.10: since i hab to install from the .bin file i have no integrated API reference. how do i add it now?
[18:16] <[V13]Axel> Thanks, Blubbi.
[18:16] <archboxman> v1tal3: terminal locate grub should be menu.lst
[18:16] <[V13]Axel> And arand.
[18:16] <kalbo^> m4tic: so you suggesting that i have to re install ubuntu and use the live cd, not wubi?
[18:16] <ivansmo> All setings seems OK, Device #0: SiS SI7012 , wannabe master Master,0,  when clicked xfce4-mixer
[18:16] <viajante> m4tic, I'm trying to start the bootloader wich failed after update manager installed last kernel version, I only get grub
[18:17] <NetScr1be> Blubi how do we confirm which image versions are on the system please?
[18:17] <Liquid-Silence> viajante: be glad your not running lilo
[18:17] <archboxman> [V13]Axel: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[18:17] <[V13]Axel> I know that much, archboxman. I mean the actual kernel images.
[18:17] <viajante> archboxman, just that?
[18:17] <ipatrol_> I've been here for half an hour, help???
[18:17] <[V13]Axel> I already have it covered.
[18:17] <[V13]Axel> What's the problem, ipatrol_?
[18:18] <Liquid-Silence> ipatrol_: whats the issue buddy
[18:18] <ipatrol_> My wifi won't connect
[18:18] <archboxman> viajante: just what???
[18:18] <NetScr1be> ipatrol WEP is compromised use WPA PSK
[18:18] <ipatrol_> NetScr1be: Right now I don't *** care
[18:18] <[V13]Axel> ipatrol_: What do you mean, it won't connect?
[18:18] <viajante> archboxman, I have grub prompt, do I just give that command?
[18:18] <ipatrol_> I can't get any acess to the wi-fi network
[18:19] <ipatrol_> But the newtork manger is working with my wifi card
[18:19] <ChrisTX> NetScr1be, WPA PSK isn't safe either, it uses TKIP as well lol
[18:19] <Liquid-Silence> ipatrol_: does it actually detect the network
[18:19] <NetScr1be> ipatrol was the router reset? (back to default)
[18:19] <ardchoille> ipatrol_: We need mor einfo. Please specify what you have done, what you have tried and any errors
[18:19] <bad_alloc> ipatrol_: what kind of an AP/ what distri are you using, what is your config now?
[18:19] <ipatrol_> Liquid-Silence: yes
[18:19] <archboxman> viajante: need text editor use gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst to edit grub
[18:19] <ipatrol_> bad_alloc: 9.10
[18:19] <[V13]Axel> ipatrol_: Use the command "iwconfig" and tell what the output is.
[18:19] <viajante> ipatrol you probably have broadcom wirelless, try the proprietary STA driver
[18:19] <ivansmo> ipatrol_  I have problem with wifi, I resolved in that way that I connect with wired network and XUBUNTU has downloaded drivers, Yust turn them ON and then if You need setup IP address
[18:20] <ipatrol_> [V13]Axel: I can't copypaste
[18:20] <viajante> archboxman, I cant acess text editor, just grub prompt
[18:20] <archboxman> viajante: you may need to be root so su or sudo
[18:20] <ipatrol_> two different computers
[18:20] <bad_alloc> nopaste.biz
[18:20] <[V13]Axel> Use the link from earlier, I think it was copy.ubuntu.com or something.
[18:20] <[V13]Axel> Ah.
[18:20] <bad_alloc> [unanswered] i have an issue with the Qtcreator 1.3.1 under ubuntu 8.10: since i hab to install from the .bin file i have no integrated API reference. how do i add it now?
[18:20] <NetScr1be> I tried using http://pastebin.ubuntu.com and got nowhere
[18:20] <archboxman> viajante: su or sudo to run command
[18:20] <[V13]Axel> Then tell me if it shows a wireless card enabled.
[18:20] <ipatrol_> It does
[18:20] <Nahsei> hi again... i think i have kind of a conflict... when i try to open the sound preferences either it doesn't open or it says that doesn't respond
[18:21] <archboxman> viajante: do a locate menu.lst to make sure it finds the file...
[18:21] <ipatrol_> [V13]Axel: I see my network SSID in the GUI
[18:21] <[V13]Axel> When you click your network configuration icon on the notification area, does it show a list of wireless networks?
[18:21] <ipatrol_> yes
[18:21] <ipatrol_> mine included
[18:21] <[V13]Axel> Try connecting to a different network, and then back to your own.
[18:21] <viajante> archboxman, I'm already root, I just need to know the grub command to search for new kernel list and boot it
[18:21] <[V13]Axel> That sometimes helps mine.
[18:21] <ipatrol_> but when I ask it to connect it asks for the key and spins its wheels
[18:21] <[V13]Axel> I'm running a two computer setup as well.
[18:21] <Nahsei> maybe a conflict between pulseaudio and alsa.... not sure, i'm just a newbie
[18:21] <[V13]Axel> Odd.
[18:21] <viajante> arch, on grub?
[18:21] <archboxman> viajante: its a script no command to change grub
[18:22] <m4tic> viajante, use sudo update-grub2 in your livecd
[18:22] <ipatrol_> [V13]Axel: No, I'm on a diferent computer than the ubuntu one
[18:22] <NetScr1be> Nahsei: I have the same sort of issue
[18:22] <[V13]Axel> ipatrol_: I know, I am too currently. I'm sitting at two.
[18:22] <viajante> m4tic, I cant I was using wubi
[18:22] <archboxman> viajante: its a text file you edit lines in grub
[18:22] <NetScr1be> sound works on livecd but not on installed version
[18:22] <viajante> m4tic, no live cd
[18:22] <ipatrol_> [V13]Axel: My key is hexidecimal, is that a problem?
[18:23] <[V13]Axel> ipatrol_: That's odd. It could be.
[18:23] <archboxman> viajante: that is why you run locate menu.lst to see the location of grub
[18:23] <viajante> archboxman, how do I edit files in grub?
[18:23] <krisss117> -joun #ubuntu+pl
[18:23] <ipatrol_> [V13]Axel: How do I set a hexidecimal instead of an ASCII key?
[18:23] <[V13]Axel> archboxman: He is using Karmic, it uses GRUB2, which doesn't use menu.lst.
[18:23] <m4tic> sorry, i have no experience with wubi, try asking someone else, they might have a solution, or scan the http://www.ubuntuforums.org
[18:23] <NetScr1be> my Live CD is on a USB stick. Can I upgrade the linux image w/o starting from scratch?
[18:24] <Nahsei> in the beginning it worked... it stoped working after updates... since it updated pulseaudio, i suspect it is a conflict
[18:24] <[V13]Axel> ipatrol_: I have no idea, honestly.
[18:24] <viajante> archboxman, I already know the location of grub, I just dont know the location of menu.lst and the command to make grub load it
[18:24] <ipatrol_> [V13]Axel: googling...
[18:24] <[V13]Axel> viajante: GRUB2 does NOT use menu.lst.
[18:24] <archboxman> [V13]Axel:that is grub2 which uses grub.cfg i believe hold on
[18:24] <viajante> [V13]Axel, what does it use?
[18:24] <[V13]Axel> viajante: In order to USE a menu.lst, you need to install the old version of GRUB.
[18:24] <Nahsei> NetScr1be: you can... just run the update manager
[18:25] <[V13]Axel> viajante: It uses files all over the place, go to the site mentioned earlier with this command:
[18:25] <anto9us> Nahsei, delete ~/.pulse works for some, else purge and reinstall pulseaudio
[18:25] <[V13]Axel> !grub2 | viajante

[18:31] <freshmeat> Guys, I have trouble authenticating myself as root. I'm certain that the write password is being input.

[18:32] <luky_luky> tudo bom? :)
[18:32] <freshmeat> right password *
[18:32] <biglinux> ola lucky
[18:32] <erUSUL> !br
[18:32] <ardchoille> mauri: I've been told that'snot a good idea. Perhaps ask in #ubuntu+1
[18:32] <coz_> freshmeat,   open a terminal    sudo passwd root   change the password and be careful that caps lock is not enabled
[18:32] <luky_luky> ubottu: thanx
[18:32] <Nahsei> brb
[18:32] <anto9us> Nahsei, purging pulseaudio and reinstall fixed it for me
[18:32] <mauri> ardchoille: why is it not a good idea?
[18:32] <ipatrol_> by any chance, does anyone have a rapidshare account?
[18:32] <ardchoille> coz_: Please don't recommend that here, it's unsupported and we're not supposed to recommend that here
[18:33] <ardchoille> !update | mauri
[18:33] <coz_> ardchoille,  oh?   that's odd  but ok
[18:33] <triple_xxx> mikey_: you still around
[18:33] <ardchoille> freshmeat: I've never had to enable root in 5 years using Ubuntu. Use sudo, the root account should really stay locked.
[18:34] <m4tic> coz, i wouldnt encourage people using root, sudo is there for a reason
[18:34] <ipatrol_> I need someone to download some ralink drivers that are stuck on rapidsharw
[18:34] <Manii> ipatrol_, ill do it, better not be a virus
[18:34] <archboxman> mikey_: logged in as 2 users at one time using irssi.. I'm both triple_xxx and archboxman
[18:34] <biglinux> tudo ok
[18:34] <biglinux> tudo ok luky
[18:34] <coz_> m4tic,  understood... he already knew how  but apparenlty didnt have the correct password
[18:35] <ipatrol_> Manii: http://rapidshare.com/files/160951015/WUSB600N.tar
[18:35] <biglinux> luky you are from?
[18:35] <ipatrol_> ipatrol6010@yahoo.com
[18:35] <biglinux> luky deonde voce é?
[18:35] <ardchoille> You can't brute force a locked root account and you cann't brute force user accounts without the usernames. This is why sudo is more secure, one less account to worry about
[18:35] <luky_luky> biglinux: sorry, we  can't speak portuguese here :)
[18:36] <biglinux> sorry
[18:36] <lyhana8_> hi, I try to use firevox but the TTS apps I pickup stay uncheck and no sound came out
[18:36] <Manii> ipatrol_, it says servers are overloaded.....
[18:36] <ermac0> ubuntu freaks, i'm having a rather strange phenomenon with text in the terminal console, i type and the text disappears..i have to re-type it or what not..its actually there but, doesn't show, what do think it is...a library thats not updated...

[18:37] <freshmeat> Guys, so what could I do here?
[18:38] <JonathanEllis> I am having problems trying to install avidemux. I have downloaded avidemux_2.5.2.tar.gz from http://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=1402 and I am following the instructions at http://www.avidemux.org/admWiki/index.php?title=Compiling_Avidemux#Choosing_what_to_compile. When I type "cmake ." I get some errors including "Please do an out-of-tree build". The full errors are here http://pastebin.com/d1cde6a71. I would be very grateful
[18:38] <ardchoille> freshmeat: What is your goal?
[18:38] <gregor_> help out
[18:38] <biglinux> luky uoy is boy or girl
[18:38] <erUSUL> JonathanEllis: why not just install from repositories ?
[18:38] <VCoolio> any idea on why gedit uses 100% cpu? renaming ~/.gnome2/gedit didn't help, neither did reinstall
[18:38] <eurescu> hy all!
[18:38] <JonathanEllis> erUSUL: Because the version in the hardy repos is 2.4.1 and it wont open an MTS file I need to edit.
[18:38] <biglinux> luky show me
[18:39] <ardchoille> VCoolio: I had that problem whenusing a bad theme and using the sidepane in gedit
[18:39] <erUSUL> JonathanEllis: maybe getdev has a newer version of some ppa ? compiling should be the last option
[18:39] <luky_luky> biglinux: lets talk on #ubuntu-br
[18:39] <ardchoille> VCoolio: See if it helps to change gtk themes
[18:39] <freshmeat> ardchoille: I wish to execute a shell script, but obviously need to do so as root. I've used 'su', but was for some reason unsucessful even though I input the correct passwor.

[18:44] <biglinux> ok
[18:44] <archboxman> VCoolio: lol

[18:47] <lenina> hi, why do these messages keep coming up in my /var/log/auth.log, even if i didn't sudo ? http://pastebin.com/m54e212a8
[18:47] <linuxmonger> Pardon me for maybe being off topic; A few months ago in Linux Journal, there was an article about an irc daemon that could also connect to AOL, Yahoo, and other IMs, letting the user run whatever irc client they wanted to connect to all of those protocols. Can anyone tell me what the name of the software is?
[18:47] <archboxman> gizmobay: to far away from network or in another room wood is not a good for radio waves it is an isolater
[18:47] <gizmobay> I do a iwlist scan and it still shows me as connected to the network though
[18:47] <gizmobay> I can't ping the computer
[18:47] <JonathanEllis> erUSUL: Thanks. I will try that
[18:47] <erUSUL> lenina: you used some item form admin menu
[18:48] <anto9us> gizmobay, do you have other network devices connected?
[18:48] <lenina> erUSUL: for example ?
[18:48] <archboxman> gizmobay: ifconfig what the signal strength???
[18:48] <gizmobay> I have others connected but wired
[18:48] <erUSUL> lenina: update-manager synaptic users and groups printers etc etc
[18:49] <ermac0> lenina, those messages show when you login as root on your local machine
[18:49] <lenina> erUSUL: no, i didn't - this is strange about it
[18:49] <anto9us> gizmobay, to save confusion just have one connected, network manager is bit fussy
[18:49] <ermac0> lenina, auth.log tracks samba logins and pam logins
[18:49] <gizmobay> archboxman, ifconfig doesn't have the signal strength
[18:49] <erUSUL> lenina: some software has made it in your behalf ( update-manager to check for updates )
[18:50] <gizmobay> Oh I miss read your post anto9us, the computer only has one connection wireless
[18:50] <erUSUL> lenina: check what program is 31502
[18:50] <gizmobay> though you meant my whole network
[18:50] <lenina> ermac0: i don't have samba. what are pam logins ?
[18:50] <Nahsei> my sound still doesn't work... again the log in sound doesn't play too
[18:50] <anto9us> gizmobay, ok, then iwlist should show all nearby routers, find a free channel that isn't in use
[18:50] <lenina> erUSUL: didn't know this was the pid, thanks
[18:51] <guntbert> erUSUL: did lenina enable the root account?
[18:51] <archboxman> gizmobay: iwconfig ops
[18:51] <ermac0> lenina, pam is what you use to login to your ubuntu session
[18:51] <gizmobay> anto9us, signal strength shows 52/100
[18:51] <erUSUL> lenina: well i'm not really sure but should be; no?
[18:52] <anto9us> gizmobay, that's a bit low, maybe logging into the router and changing channel will help
[18:52] <ermac0> lenina, if you didn't make that login , IE through a terminal window, then some program must have root access to login ..perhaps a script, but a user and only a user should know what runs on the machine
[18:52] <Nahsei> help

[18:54] <anto9us> Nahsei, what version does pulseaudio --version show?
[18:54] <sander_> someone knows how to edit resolution and dimension of vbox window
[18:54] <gizmobay> anto9us, should I change to auto instead?
[18:54] <Nahsei> pulseaudio 0.9.19
[18:54] <gizmobay> channel that is
[18:54] <lenina> ermac0: ok - this is strange, there are lots of these mesagges, but when i try to grep the process via ps aux, it shows nothing. there are several pid's and i tried a lot of them
[18:54] <anto9us> gizmobay, it won't hurt to try
[18:55] <sander_> i really apreciated some help
[18:55] <onaogh> !vbox | onaogh
[18:55] <anto9us> Nahsei, same as mine, did you remove ~/.pulse ?
[18:55] <archboxman> !virtualbox
[18:56] <ermac0> lenina, you will not find the PID for it, because it opens and closes to fast

[18:56] <pm2> Hi - I'm working on developing an app which will need to use street map data.  Basically, I want to plugin two street addresses, and get the driving distance in miles between the two points, and maybe an approximate driving time between them.  Anyone know of an open source way to do this?

[18:56] <natschil> pm2: have a look at open streetmap
[18:56] <erUSUL> pm2: just use google maps ?
[18:57] <natschil> hello. Is there a way to increase the granularity of sound control when using the hotkeys?
[18:57] <gizmobay> Thanks anto9us, I got my internet back. I'll see if it keeps from losing my connection over time
[18:57] <onaogh> Kernel update ... restarting !
[18:57] <ekim1> pm2, mapquest does that already.
[18:57] <sander_> thnks
[18:57] <anto9us> Nahsei, try rm ~/.pulse/default.pa; pkill pulseaudio
[18:57] <lenina> ermac0: allright, but what is the explanation ?
[18:58] <ermac0> lenina, if your worried do a who -a and kill any root sessions that are active.
[18:58] <Nahsei> i have no such file...
[18:58] <archboxman> anto9us: can you recommend a wireless usb device that will work in my desktop??? or a pci card for wireless???
[18:59] <lenina> ermac0: no root session is open.. i'm worried because yesterday some guy tried to break in via ssh. and now there are lots of root logins i don't understand..

[19:01] <ermac0> lenina, make sure you have a strong password other than that you need a strong firewall, there will always be people that lurk in the broadcast ranges of ISP's
[19:02] <ermac0> lenina, you could make sure you have ufw installed

[19:03] <sirlark> Hi, I installed a ubuntu server (hardy) on Friday morning, moving over from mandriva. During the install at the partitioning step I chose to 'keep existing data' for my /var partition. I got a warning saying that the partition would not be formatted, but that some files might be overwritten during the install. I expected this, and specifically did not choose to install apache (it was my website) I was trying to preserve, so I expected m
[19:04] <Nahsei> anto9us: yes... no sound
[19:04] <ermac0> lenina, ufw status will tell you

[19:05] <Nahsei> do you know who can help me?
[19:06] <ermac0> lenina, do ufw status first

[19:06] <eeos> hi everybody! I am trying to mount a ext3 partition at startup, but owned by a specific user and not by root .... I do not appear to be able ....
[19:06] <archboxman> linuxmonger: I need to now if you consider this wifi card middle of the road when using with linux I run archlinux and linux mint on this computer... I don't really want a new wifi card that you would consider top of the line...
[19:06] <eeos> I modified /etc/fstab .... but failed again .... anyone who cna help?
[19:06] <ipatrol_> Hello? A set of drivers that I need for my wireless adapter wont compile
[19:07] <anto9us> Nahsei, ask your question on launchpad; https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu
[19:07] <archboxman> linuxmonger: have you tried this card with older versions of ubuntu
[19:07] <ermac0> eeos, if you have root access, then  change the owner of the folder
[19:07] <Nahsei> ok thanks ;)
[19:07] <eeos> ermac0: I did, but when I reboot, then the owner is reset to root ...
[19:07] <lenina> ermac0: ufw status said it was disabled
[19:08] <eeos> this is the line I am using in my /etc/fstab:     => /dev/sda2       /pictures       ext3    defaults,user,owner     0       2
[19:08] <ermac0> lenina, yea thats not good. enableing will good
[19:08] <eeos> ermac0: do you think there is something wrong there?
[19:09] <linuxmonger> archboxman: Again, it's just cheap, under $10 at the local store, I'd certainly call it middle of the road or a bit below - I've got a couple Cisco cards to compare against. I know it doesn't work with 7.10 or earlier, but I think it works with 9.04 and am certain it works in 9.10.
[19:09] <arthur_> can anyone tell me if googleEarth works with 9.10? a while back i had problems with 8.04 it did not work??? anyone?
[19:10] <eeos> ermac0: I change the owner of the folder /pictures (that is the mount point) to the user I would like to mount the partition
[19:10] <ermac0> do /dev/sda2 /pictures ext3 defaults 0 0
[19:10] <archboxman> linuxmonger: that sounds like a good card will look into it.. tx again..
[19:10] <CShadowRun> arthur_: it's always worked (including on 8.04)
[19:10] <linuxmonger> My pleasure.
[19:10] <lenina> ermac0: i did that and this was the output: http://pastebin.com/m55dfe7f9
[19:11] <archboxman> linuxmonger: where do you live that you have a microcenter near by I live in colorado,but when I lived on the east coast I didn't see a microcenter there...

[19:25] <Yerushalmi> My computer refuses to hibernate, though suspend works fine. Can anyone help me figure out what the problem is?
[19:26] <Marach> wow, this is the default autoconnect in xchat...
[19:26] <Seveas> Marach, scary, isn't it!
[19:26] <delik> i've searched there already thanks bot
[19:26] <Marach> this looks different from Windows version :O
[19:26] <Chatomon> this channel is in spanish or english??

[19:27] <eeos> The second problem I have is that when I connect an external device (a USB disk), the permissions are set for group root, the umask is 755, and the title of the directories are uppercase. I would like the group of the device to be users, the umask to be 775 and the directories to be lowercase .... but I cannot udnerstand how the thing works! Where is it mounted??
[19:27] <delik> Seveas: did you read my question?
[19:27] <wahben> Hi all! I am in Canada, my old-ass Acer laptop just died. I'd like to buy a new, Ubuntu-friendly laptop. Anyone knows of a good deal?
[19:27] <Yerushalmi> (and, also, stupid question for a person completely new to ubuntu: how do I open the browser from terminal with sudo rights?)
[19:27] <Yerushalmi> (file browser, that is)
[19:27] <Chatomon> so, how I go in my channel?
[19:28] <Marach> but with one similiarity - espernet isnt included in server list, too.
[19:28] <Marach> :P
[19:28] <delik> Yerushalmi: sudo nautilus
[19:28] <trism> Yerushalmi: gksudo nautilus; it is generally not a good idea though
[19:28] <edbian> eeos: If you're letting it auto-mount it goes into /media  a folder is automatically created.  If you want to set your own permissions make a folder in /mnt and an fstab entry
[19:28] <Seveas> delik, remove all packages with openjdk or icedtea in the name from your system. Then install sun-java6-plugin.
[19:28] <Chatomon> My from is spanish
[19:28] <Chatomon> :D
[19:28] <nekto0n> wahben, i think the more intel stuff your new notebook has - the better
[19:28] <Yerushalmi> how come, trism?
[19:28] <Chatomon> hi to all!
[19:28] <eeos> edbian: can I not modify the options of the automount?
[19:29] <nekto0n> i mean chipset, sound, wifi, ethernet
[19:29] <guntbert> !gksudo | Yerushalmi, delik
[19:29] <delik> it says sun-java6-jre already installed
[19:29] <nekto0n> intel is pretty ubuntu friendly
[19:29] <edbian> eeos: You can,  I don't know how
[19:29] <wahben> what about video card? I should go for Nvidia right?
[19:29] <edbian> FTP noob here:  Is there a way to log into an FTP server without using a firefox add-on like fireFTP ??
[19:29] <trism> Yerushalmi: it is just easy to mess up files if you aren't careful (I know I have a tendency to accidently drag files to the wrong place even in a normal user's file browser)
[19:29] <Mik777> hello all, can anyone tell me how can I listen for the online radio which is originally designed for microsoft silverlight software?!
[19:29] <Yerushalmi> trism: I for some reason don't have write access to my SD card without it.
[19:29] <edbian> eeos: Something about /dev rules or something like that.
[19:29] <Seveas> edbian, the 'ftp' command on the commandline or the gftp gui
[19:29] <delik> ubottu: thanks :) one mor to the book :)
[19:29] <wahben> edbian, check oout filezilla
[19:30] <guntbert> edbian: you can use any ftp client...
[19:30] <nekto0n> if you don't need powerfull - intel is good choise =)
[19:30] <Seveas> Mik777, search the wiki for moonlight
[19:30] <edbian> Seveas: With nothing but a browser
[19:30] <eeos> edbian: thanks!
[19:30] <Marach> waitasecond, freenode doesnt have autoconnect NOR #ubuntu in favourite channel list
[19:30] <Mik777> Seveas Thank you!
[19:30] <Seveas> edbian, ftp://name.of.server
[19:30] <Marach> NOW this is scary
[19:30] <wahben> nekto0n, I wouldn't mind a neat video card. I should avoid ATI right?
[19:31] <edbian> Let me re-phrase this question.  Can I log into my FTP server (not anonymously) with nothing but a stock browser.  No add-ons or anything
[19:31] <nekto0n> as far as i know - ubuntu doesn't ship closed source nvidia drivers and opensource nv a suck a bit
[19:31] <erle-> how is cpu frequency scaling implemented in karmic?
[19:31] <nekto0n> about ati...

[19:31] <wahben> edbian, yes. ftp://username:password@serveraddress
[19:31] <Liquid-Silence> ok I officially hate empathy
[19:31] <Sayge> ATI just released its latest drivers for Linux, so if you get those, you'll be okay
[19:31] <edbian> wahben: Thank you!  I'll give it a shot right now
[19:31] <Marach> can i even change from tree view to tab view?
[19:31] <Windopain> i am running ubuntu live and there is one HDD in the computer- is it possible to mount it?  i've tried w/ no success so far
[19:31] <Seveas> Liquid-Silence, I have no empathy for that ;)
[19:31] <bastid_raZor> erle-: you can tweak it with cpufreq-utils and using cpufreq-set  .. you may need to install cpufreq-util package
[19:31] <ekim1> what vesion number is jaunty?
[19:31] <nekto0n> today ati opensorce drivers evolve very fast, so I think it will be allright

[19:32] <weechat_user> I have no problem with that and it works.
[19:32] <weechat_user> But my Bitrate is very slow.
[19:32] <erle-> bastid_raZor, but that's not the recommended/preinstalled solution
[19:32] <FloodBot3> weechat_user: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:33] <r3za>  hi guys , i have a old hp laserjet 1100 printer and because i dont have any lpt port in my mainboard , i use RS232 -> usb cable convertor , now how can i install it in my karmic ???
[19:33] <erle-> bastid_raZor, what kernel module etc. does that stuff?
[19:33] <bastid_raZor> erle-: it isn't?
[19:33] <tarski> Yerushalmi: open up a terminal, and navigate to the mount point, so: cd /your/mount/path
[19:33] <edbian> wahben: It worked,  I was able to log in.  There doesn't seem to be a way to upload files
[19:33] <wahben> edbian, one restriction: you can't upload with stock firefox. But I suggest you use command line, or a ftp client
[19:33] <weechat_user> i try thinks like that
[19:33] <weechat_user> malte@leppi:~$ sudo iwconfig wlan0 rate 54MB
[19:33] <erle-> bastid_raZor, no, i have the cpu frequency stuff without that
[19:33] <weechat_user> malte@leppi:~$ iwconfig
[19:33] <weechat_user> malte@leppi:~$ sudo iwconfig wlan0 rate 54MB
[19:33] <weechat_user> malte@leppi:~$ iwconfig
[19:33] <FloodBot3> weechat_user: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:33] <weechat_user> malte@leppi:~$ sudo iw reg set DE
[19:33] <delik> Seveas: it says sun-java6-jre already installed
[19:33] <bastid_raZor> erle-: how else you would  control it i do not know.
[19:33] <tarski> Yerushalmi: then sudo chmod 777 /your/mount/point
[19:33] <edbian> wahben: I like fireFTP alot (firefox add-on)  Do any other browsers allow me to upload natively?  IE, Opera, Chrome, Safari??
[19:34] <Seveas> delik, sun-java6-plugin
[19:34] <erle-> bastid_raZor, the preinstalled gnome applets have a cpu frequency applet
[19:34] <guntbert> weechat_user: please keep your question in one line
[19:34] <erle-> bastid_raZor, it does the job, but not properly
[19:34] <wahben> edbian, Internet Explorer will allow you.. it will basically open an explorer window and allow you to drag and drop
[19:34] <edbian> wahben: I'd like to think that I can upload to my FTP server from any computer connected to the internet without having to worry about getting a firefox add-on
[19:34] <nekto0n> are there any lucid users with intel gpu?
[19:34] <bastid_raZor> erle-: then try cpufreq-utils .. for me it does scale properly.
[19:34] <tarski> Yerushalmi: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2005-October/052828.html
[19:34] <Yerushalmi> tarski: While we're at it, is there any way to change the name of sound mountpoint? Right now it's /media/d46f34ae-d1a4-40be-bf6e-5e6e45eac65f/
[19:34] <wahben> edbian, you can, command-line ftp client comes with every linux distribution
[19:35] <actionParsnip> !lucid | nekto0n
[19:35] <wahben> and with "Dos"
[19:35] <edbian> wahben: Thank you.  You're been extremely helpful.  :D  Isn't linux the best?
[19:35] <Marach> classic xchat is soo much better.

[19:35] <tarski> Yerushalmi: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[19:35] <wahben> edbian, no problem, yes linux is cool
[19:35] <Yerushalmi> er... latest? I just upgraded to something-or-other-19 an hour ago,
[19:35] <weechat_user> ok, i poste my terminal output here http://paste.ubuntu.com/370438/
[19:35] <weechat_user> maybe someone could help me
[19:36] <bastid_raZor> Yerushalmi: uname -a will tell you which kernel yo uhave
[19:36] <erle-> bastid_raZor, what cpu do you have? i think cpufreq is deprecated
[19:36] <ekim1> what version number is Jaunty?
[19:36] <tarski> Yerushalmi: what sort of device is in that media slot?
[19:36] <guntbert> !jaunty | ekim1
[19:36] <wahben> edbian, on a side note, FTP is not safe, most of the time. If possible, you should use sftp (ssh file transfer).
[19:36] <erle-> bastid_raZor, cpufreq is for pentium 4 heat control, not for modern laptop power consumption control
[19:36] <ekim1> thx.
[19:37] <bastid_raZor> erle-: AMD Athlon(tm) Processor 2650e
[19:37] <edbian> wahben: I'm using vsftpd as a server.  I am aware of security issues.  I'm just trying things out right now.
[19:37] <actionParsnip> weechat_user: Bit Rate=36 Mb/s seems ok
[19:37] <apollo> i need help with installation. i am booting 9.10 from a flash drive and the installer won't run
[19:37] <wahben> edbian, then you can connect yo your sftp server very easily with Ubuntu: "Places" -> "Connect to server"
[19:37] <Yerushalmi> bastid_raZor: 2.6.31-19-generic? Does that make sense?
[19:37] <guntbert> edbian: ftp sends everything (including passwords) in cleartext
[19:37] <bastid_raZor> Yerushalmi: yes.
[19:38] <edbian> wahben: Problem is.  Most other computers in the world run windows.  I've had a lot of difficulty getting to connect to sftp on a windows machine without installing software.
[19:38] <weechat_user> actionParship: but my internet connection is so slow, only 300 kb, my wife has with windows 1,2 mb
[19:38] <edbian> guntbert: I know :(
[19:38] <Sayge> so Ihave been trying to install 64bit Ubuntu, but keeping this error "mount: mount/dev/sr0 on /cdrom failed :invalid argument." Yet 32 bit version I have no such problem.
[19:38] <tarski> Yerushalmi: that's just the linux kernel version, i was asking for ubuntu version, if it's latest then you have 9.10 karmic
[19:38] <wahben> edbian, you are right. One solution: Use winscp client on windows computers
[19:38] <ekim1> linuxmonger:  according to newegg, some people say it dont work well with 9.04. Have you tried it with that version or linux mint?
[19:38] <Yerushalmi> tarski: Yup,
[19:38] <Yerushalmi> tarski: That sounds right
[19:39] <apollo> anyone help with 9.10 installation?
[19:39] <Yerushalmi> tarski: Anyway, the disk is a 16GB
[19:39] <Urda> Question: How can I get Ubuntu 9.10 x64 to get on a Wireless network for WPA2 Enterprise network where the certificate has to be downloaded? On my iPhone and Windows I am able to connect, and validate the certificate. Ubuntu doesn't allow me to connect and get the certificate
[19:39] <erle-> bastid_raZor, cpufrequtils do not work either, it must be the kernel
[19:39] <geli> gregor are you here??
[19:39] <actionParsnip> weechat_user: i guess this is you too: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1399960
[19:39] <Yerushalmi> tarski: Anyway, the disk is a 16GB card in an MMC.SD slot.
[19:39] <actionParsnip> Sayge: did you md5 test the iso?
[19:39] <weechat_user> actionParship: yes
[19:39] <bastid_raZor> erle-: i was just going to say in karmic the package dropped the -
[19:39] <tarski> Yerushalmi: you were able to chmod the sd card to give your user write privileges?
[19:40] <guntbert> edbian: on *every* windows I know of you can use winscp (a ftp like interface working via ssh) - that exists even "portable" ie for an usb stick
[19:40] <erle-> bastid_raZor, i noticed that, but that didn't matter
[19:40] <ekim1> Archboxman: according to newegg reviews, that wifi has issues with 9.04
[19:40] <Screamo_Smurf> anybody know why the icons on my desktop have dissapered ?
[19:40] <Yerushalmi> tarski: I'm not sure. Create folder and stuff is still grayed out when using non-sudoed nautilus, and nearly every folder's got a lock symbol on it
[19:40] <bastid_raZor> erle-: does not work can mean many things.. are you getting an error when using sudo cpufreq-set --governor ?
[19:40] <edbian> guntbert: I know.  I'm still deciding.  Do I want a little more security or a little more flexibility.  Tough decision ha ha
[19:41] <guntbert> Screamo_Smurf: did you log out/ log in?
[19:41] <actionParsnip> weechat_user: log a bug
[19:41] <Screamo_Smurf> not yet
[19:41] <Yerushalmi> tarski: If I have a separate ubuntu install on that card, would that complicate matters?
[19:41] <erle-> bastid_raZor, the problem is, i can set the governor or frequency, but the cpu is just not doing it
[19:41] <erle-> bastid_raZor, until next reboot
[19:41] <Urda> Question: How can I get Ubuntu 9.10 x64 to get on a Wireless network for WPA2 Enterprise network where the certificate has to be downloaded? On my iPhone and Windows I am able to connect, and validate the certificate. Ubuntu doesn't allow me to connect and get the certificate. What can I do :\
[19:41] <tarski> Yerushalmi: youre going to need to open a terminal, do you know what that is? If you go to Applications->Accessories->Terminal
[19:41] <weechat_user> actionParship: what bug?
[19:41] <bastid_raZor> erle-: how are you checking if it is or not? i use conky to givec me this information.
[19:41] <erle-> bastid_raZor, no matter which tool i use, no matter if i set the /proc files by myself
[19:41] <Yerushalmi> tarski: Yup. Open,
[19:41] <actionParsnip> weechat_user: log one yourself
[19:42] <actionParsnip> weechat_user: and use tab to complete my nick ;)
[19:42] <guntbert> edbian: should be a quite easy decision - towards security - imagine sitting in a cafe and using the wlan...
[19:42] <Yerushalmi> tarski: (also, apologies for the commas, I'm still not used to the tiny keyboard on the netbook)
[19:42] <actionParsnip> Screamo_Smurf: if you run nautilus do they appear?
[19:42] <bastid_raZor> erle-: which kernel are you using?
[19:42] <tarski> Yerushalmi: then find out where it's mounted, usually it's under /media
[19:42] <Screamo_Smurf> actionParsnip no they do not
[19:42] <weechat_user> actionParsnip: how could i log in
[19:42] <Yerushalmi> tarski: It is.
[19:43] <user__> I need a program that makes sounds from functions, any recoḿmendations?
[19:43] <actionParsnip> weechat_user: you will need to setup an account (its free)

[19:43] <actionParsnip> user__: can you expand on that?
[19:43] <tarski> Yerushalmi: is that the sd card?

[19:43] <asdff> Hey how do I find the value of my keyboard for keyboard0 in xorg.conf?
[19:43] <erle-> bastid_raZor, latest karmic - 2.6.31.19
[19:44] <delik> Seveas: the same problem after installing the sun-java6-plugin
[19:44] <erle-> bastid_raZor, but the problem exists since ubuntu 8.10
[19:44] <tarski> Yerushalmi: ok, so then just type: sudo chmod 777 /media/d46f34ae-d1a4-40be-bf6e-5e6e45eac65f
[19:44] <tarski> Yerushalmi: you can use tab completion
[19:44] <erle-> bastid_raZor, but now it is driving me crazy
[19:44] <tarski> Yerushalmi: so you don't have to type ALL that out
[19:44] <jpt9> Hey.  I'm using Bristol, a software synth that uses OSS.  I've found that if it's running, no other app can use the sound card.  Any idas on ways around this?  I'm using Ubuntu 9.10.
[19:44] <asdff> Hey how do I find the value of my keyboard for keyboard0 in xorg.conf?
[19:44] <Yerushalmi> tarski: hehe
[19:44] <bastid_raZor> erle-: odd, i've been using cpufreq-set since 8.10
[19:44] <Seveas> delik, did you remove all traces of icedtea and openjdk?
[19:44] <delik> yes
[19:44] <delik> all
[19:45] <tarski> Yerushalmi: after you enter your password for sudo you should have write privileges
[19:45] <actionParsnip> asdff: hal/udev will autodetect it so you don't need to define it, nor do you need to define mouse
[19:45] <Yerushalmi> tarski: Hunh, it worked this time. That was odd.
[19:45] <erle-> bastid_raZor, what kernel module is responsible?
[19:45] <erle-> bastid_raZor, for that job
[19:45] <bastid_raZor> erle-: no clue.
[19:45] <asdff> actionParsnip: that is all very well and good for a default setup, however I wish to customise my xserver widnows
[19:45] <delik> Seveas: yess no icedtea or openjdk in pakage manager
[19:45] <asdff> windows*
[19:45] <Seveas> delik, then I don't know :(
[19:45] <erle-> bastid_raZor, there were cpufreq modules some time, but they aren't called like that any more
[19:45] <Yerushalmi> tarski: Thanks! Any way I can change the name of the card to something a little more catchy than d46f34ae-d1a4-40be-bf6e-5e6e45eac65f?

[19:46] <delik> anyone else...
[19:46] <Screamo_Smurf> auto mount it in fstab?
[19:46] <delik> lol
[19:46] <tarski> Yerushalmi: yes, you can change the "label"
[19:46] <actionParsnip> asdff: you only really need to specify the language
[19:46] <canthus13> Is there any way to retreive the passwords from gnome keyring via command line? I need to retrieve the empathy passwords from a damanged drive. I should be able to retrieve the appropriate file, but I don't know what the file is.

[19:48] <guntbert> !bug | ricardo
[19:48] <oxymoron> Hello, I wondering has somebody figured out how to use a DV-cam with skype without have to make dv4lstart command in terminal to launch?
[19:48] <asdff> actionParsnip: I am trying to implement this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5144003, as I have a 16:10 monitor and wish to run Starcraft at its natural ratio (atm it is cropping the scren). It requires me to substitute in keyboard0 and mouse0. That link didn't really do much to help my noobieness lol :/
[19:49] <newwarrior> actionParsnip: i am back
[19:50] <EdTignor> newbee here - I can connect to and control my remote desktop, but I can't see anything happening on the client.  How can I fix that?
[19:50] <oxymoron> I have been able to localize my raw1394 camredcorder, but V4l-library does not recognize it with vloopback. I am not sure exactly how it work, but in Kino and with dv4lstart it works.
[19:50] <newwarrior> actionParsnip: could you maybe help me to get a faster connection
[19:50] <tarski> Yerushalmi: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RenameUSBDrive
[19:51] <erle-> bastid_raZor, i will try a microcode update
[19:51] <delik> archboxman: you called?
[19:51] <tarski> Yerushalmi: ubuntu takes the name from the partition table, so whatever name was given to that card's partition is the name of the device
[19:51] <actionParsnip> asdff: pretty crazy stuff, basically i think its wanting you to have an xorg.conf file rather than using autodetect
[19:51] <delik> i hjad to recoonect
[19:52] <delik> actionParsnip: you called me right? i had to recoonect
[19:52] <delik> my problem is
[19:52] <user__> actionParsnip, lets say I have the function sin(x), which gives a sinus wave. how can I proceed to play this sinus wave as a sound?
[19:53] <delik> when using a online learning software, it says that the java vm isn't working
[19:53] <delik> actionParsnip: when using a online learning software, it says that the java vm isn't working
[19:53] <actionParsnip> user__: you could write a script which takes a value as an arguement and act accordingly
[19:53] <Screamo_Smurf> still no desktop icons :(
[19:53] <delik> actionParsnip: also i'm using firefox
[19:53] <actionParsnip> delik: is the OS 64bit?

[19:54] <delik> actionParsnip: nope
[19:54] <newwarrior> exit
[19:54] <actionParsnip> delik: if you install ubuntu-restricted-extras it should install java for you
[19:54] <tarski> Yerushalmi: you can also change it vis the disk utility, go to System->Administration->Disk Utility
[19:54] <delik> already installed
[19:54] <Yerushalmi> tarski: Though it changed the name as it appears in nautilus, the folder within "media" is still the long-winded thing. That make sense?
[19:55] <Screamo_Smurf> GAH
[19:55] <delik> actionParsnip: already installed sun-java6-jdk and sun-java6-plugin
[19:55] <user__> actionParsnip, but I have no Idea to make a sound
[19:55] <tarski> Yerushalmi: make sure the device isnt mounted, then try disk utility. enter the label you want
[19:55] <oxymoron> Does anybody uses Skype for Linux here?
[19:55] <Screamo_Smurf> umm
[19:55] <mmann> oxymoron yup
[19:55] <Seveas> I do, on the n900. Only called the echo/test thing so far :)
[19:55] <iceroot> delik: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin  then restart firefox
[19:56] <oxymoron> mmann: Good, how do you make webcam work with SKype?
[19:56] <Screamo_Smurf> actionParsnip i opened nautilus and it changed my desktop bg and now theres only 3 icons
[19:56] <delik> iceroot: already done
[19:56] <iceroot> delik: ah sorry missread
[19:56] <mmann> oxymoron, is your webcam working properly in another program?
[19:56] <tarski> Yerushalmi: changing the label will change the mount name, so if i rename the flash drive, or sd card, BLA, it will be /media/BLA

[19:58] <oxymoron> mmann: Some of them. I am able to use /dev/raw1394 in for instance Kino and if I use command "dv4lstart Skype" I am able to get it working, but I do not wanna use temrinal everytime I start Skype ... It seems vloopback for /dev/video0 does not recognize my DV-camera.
[19:58] <ecanto> ops
[19:58] <ecanto> sorry
[19:59] <tarski> Yerushalmi: what else did you need help with?
[19:59] <delik> i went to http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml and the java is working
[19:59] <oxymoron> mmann: Kino works out of the box, aMSN I could get it working. Kopete, Cheese and Camorama does not work at least not last time i tried.

[19:59] <Ascavasaion> when I try to browse my cellphone via the laptop using bluetooth I can enter the folders, but cannot see the images in the directories.
[19:59] <delik> Your Java configuration is as follows:  Vendor: Sun Microsystems Inc. Version: Java 6 Update 15 Operating System: Linux 2.6.31-17-generic Architecture: i386
[19:59] <Ascavasaion> why is that?
[19:59] <Yerushalmi> tarski: For some reason my automatic sleep inhibitor doesn't work
[19:59] <ismettern> hmm i just used force exit(or whatever it is called in the englsih version) on my desktop, and the icons are gun. How do i start that process again?
[19:59] <Screamo_Smurf> actionParsnip i clikced on one of the files and the location under propertires is root/desktop
[19:59] <mmann> oxymoron, aMSN doesn't work for me:P eee let me see your problem
[19:59] <bullgard> I have modified the file ~/.bashrc. When becomes the modification effective?
[19:59] <ismettern> what is the name of the program
[20:00] <delik> actionParsnip: Your Java configuration is as follows:  Vendor: Sun Microsystems Inc. Version: Java 6 Update 15 Operating System: Linux 2.6.31-17-generic Architecture: i386

[20:00] <Yerushalmi> tarski: Or didn't the last time I tried it... let me try again quick to make sure I'm not wasting your time :)
[20:00] <oxymoron> mmann: What do you mean "let me see"?

[20:00] <malibu> Hi there.. I have a router that needs to be rebooted every time I change port forwarding.. Can anyone recommend a way to handle port forwarding if I just open up a port to my ubuntu machine?
[20:00] <bullgard> blakkheim: Can I accelerate this temporarily?
[20:01] <mmann> oxymoron, did you try configurating the webcam straight from skype options?
[20:01] <oxymoron> mmann: ANyhow, dmesg shows that it recognize my DV-cam through firewire and creates a node and initialize /dev/raw1394 but this seems like an application issue and not Linux one :P
[20:01] <tarski> Yerushalmi: go to System->Preferences->Power Management
[20:01] <delik> so i don't need to instal it thru that link that you gave me
[20:01] <delik> roght?
[20:02] <mmann> oxymoron, but have you tried configurating straigt from skype?
[20:02] <oxymoron> mmann: Yes, it only show vloopback soruce 0 /dev/video0 as only choice if i Start SKype normally. But if I start with dv4lstart I can connect thrue DV4lstart to 1394 or whatever the flow calls :P
[20:02] <Yerushalmi> tarski: I'm going to close the lid and see if it goes into suspend. Will lose connection, obviously. Just a sec.
[20:02] <oxymoron> mmann: Yes, I cannot choose anything inside Skype, there is only one source available
[20:02] <mmann> oxymoron mmmm
[20:03] <oxymoron> mmann: I have been trying to use USB but does then I can only get the sound and not video :D
[20:03] <delik> noone?
[20:03] <olskolirc> what is the command so that I can read my list of desktops installed please?
[20:03] <iceroot> olskolirc: you mean gnome, kde, xfce4?
[20:04] <olskolirc> yes iceroot
[20:04] <Yerushalmi> tarski: Yup, not inhibited.
[20:04] <mmann> oxymoron, look, i dont know exactly how can i fix the problem straight, but i can give you a suggestion, why dot you make a bash file, that first runs the webcam and then skype, so you just click once and it does it all for itselfe
[20:04] <Liquid-Silence> wohoooooooo got empathy icons changed
[20:04] <tarski> Yerushalmi: which means it suspended?
[20:04] <oxymoron> mmann: Seems like an incompability in Dv4l or in someway unsupported or cannot be initialized thrue the application :P I know they have been struggling around with webcams overall and still they do not work properly in the IM-clients :P
[20:04] <Yerushalmi> tarski: Yup
[20:04] <tarski> Yerushalmi: did you go to power management?
[20:04] <Yerushalmi> tarski: Yup,
[20:05] <oxymoron> mmann: I do not know how to create the bash-file, or I know how to create one, but do not know what code I should put inside there except the top one to make it executable :P
[20:05] <Yerushalmi> tarski: Setting currently are that it suspends when laptop lid is closed, but isn't the point of the applet to override that when activated?
[20:05] <nicolaas> Hi guys, I upgraded from Ubuntu 9.04 to 9.10 and now my windows dont have borders when I login, L've googled and tried everything I could think of. Any ideas?
[20:06] <blakkheim> L've?
[20:06] <calrik> nicolass: you using nvidia graphics card?
[20:06] <mmann> oxymoron, but you said you are runing the webcam witn something right?
[20:06] <devendra> is there some cd-dvd emulator for ubuntu like daemon tool in windows ?
[20:06] <nicolaas> I've*
[20:06] <hoonteke> calrik: that doesn't sound like an nvidia probleml
[20:06] <nicolaas> yip
[20:06] <hoonteke> it sounds like a window manager problem
[20:06] <tarski> Yerushalmi: I dont know about the applet you're using, but what you can do is just in power management, change the setting on the AC Power (or Battery) to blank screen next to "When laptop lid is closed"
[20:06] <hoonteke> nicolaas: try running metacity from the command line
[20:07] <mmann> oxymoron, then you just put skype and thats it
[20:07] <mmann> oxymoron, in a new line
[20:07] <hoonteke> if that fixes it, you've got some setting that's been flipped in the upgrade
[20:07] <raversfantasy> Hi all, ive installed Ubuntu 9.10 a while ago and after ive installed "E17-Enlightenment" my "Gnome Network Manager Applet" was replaced by another one, which isnt compatible to ndiswrapper
[20:07] <hoonteke> yeesh, the community has *got* to stop suggesting upgrading as a viable path.  I've only heard frustrating things about it.  We've got to start suggesting the separate system and /home partitions, and a fresh install to the system partition.
[20:07] <raversfantasy> Is there a possibilty to reinstall the Network-Manager-Applet over the Installation-CD ?
[20:08] <calrik> nicolaas: I had the same problem with the latest kernel update, closing down gdm and installing the latest drives from nvidia.com fix the problem, after install start gdm again
[20:08] <xangua> raversfantasy: yes
[20:08] <raversfantasy> ok, would you be so nice to tell me exactly what i got to do :)
[20:08] <oxymoron> mmann: Yeah, I guess I just put dv4lstart skype but seems quite bad because it does not solve the issue in the other apps. When i Fix problem I want to go straight to the core problem and solve it permantly or else I will in the end have a lot of crappy hacks everywhere :D
[20:08] <exs> hi, i want to ask something to shell coding. i have a text with strings like true and false. i want vim to replace in the way he find true and replace true in false, and finding false replacing in true. i need to do this in one time, so he does not mix the results.
[20:09] <calrik> nicolaas: even if Im wrong it will not hurt your system but compile the latest drivers to suit the latest kernel
[20:09] <hoonteke> raversfantasy: you're looking for the network-manager-gnome package, I believe.  you can do that through the System->Administration->Synaptics program
[20:09] <raversfantasy> Thanks inthanks in advice :)
[20:09] <highfiver> is ubuntu participating in gsoc?
[20:09] <raversfantasy> Yep, the problem is, that i dont got a network connection because iam connected to it trough wifi
[20:09] <nicolaas> Will try calrik
[20:09] <oxymoron> mmann: Its like the sound, sometimes the devlopers "f*ck it up" and it does not work at all in the core or somewhere my knowledge how to fix it is not possible :P
[20:10] <Yerushalmi> tarski: I''m not sure, it came with the default installation of netbook remix. A little icon you add to your taskbar that, when clicked, is supposed to prevent the computer from entering various any shutdown or pseudoshutdown situations
[20:11] <tarski> Yerushalmi: ah, ive never used netbook remix, changing the settings in power management doesnt work?
[20:11] <Yerushalmi> tarski: Obviously yes, but I was hoping not to have to change it each time. Oh well. Maybe if I catch someone else more familiar with it, no worries
[20:12] <Liquid-Silence> is there a way not to have icons on the gnome desktop of mounted filesystems?
[20:12] <Yerushalmi> tarski: A more recurring problem I have is that my computer outright refuses to hibernate.
[20:12] <theshadow> First I'd like to pass along thanks to anyone who wrote https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessTroubleShootingGuide after 8 hours of trying to find some help I stumbled across it and it helped me to solve my problem. Second, I'd like to suggest that the networking manager be aware of the fact that some laptops do have the ability to disable the wi-fi radio, it would be nice if such status
[20:12] <theshadow> was hinted somewhere instead of just disabling the "Enable Wireless" option. Noting that the /why/ is very important to trouble shooting.
[20:12] <mkanyisi> Liquid-Silence, put the filesystems in /etc/fstab
[20:12] <dinobisk> Is it possible to "reinstall" the keyboard layouts? The ones I have are not like they should be. (Or is there another solution?)
[20:12] <tarski> Yerushalmi: use suspend, not hibernate, hibernate doesn't work well, it's an issue with the linux kernel, not specifically ubuntu
[20:13] <Sayge> so I have been trying to install 64bit Ubuntu, but keeping this error "mount: mount/dev/sr0 on /cdrom failed: invalid argument." Yet 32 bit version I have no such problem on the same computer.
[20:13] <Yerushalmi> tarski: suspend uses power, though. (Any idea how much?)
[20:14] <highfiver> is ubuntu participating in gsoc?
[20:14] <tarski> Yerushalmi: im not sure, you can check the forums
[20:14] <Yerushalmi> tarski: Okay. Thanks so much for all the other help! :)
[20:14] <tarski> Yerushalmi: you could also write a shell script for power management to turn on and off suspend when you run the command
[20:15] <tarski> Yerushalmi: im sure that's all the applet does
[20:15] <proRACE> obiwan_, saludos jeje

[20:27] <dennis__> My ubuntu remix came with Pidgin and Empathy Im pretty sure

[20:27] <Callum__> on my Ubuntu 9.10 Server Edition PC, doing a kernel update results in update-grub SIGSEGVing out and stopping the update, anyone have any ideas what the problem is?
[20:27] <devfda> try this one: rm -Rf /boot/*   plz tell what that does and why is it interesting ... googled that but no results
[20:27] <DEduc3d> Black_Phantom: It's easy enough to install tho.
[20:27] <msaul> I installed cheese in the chroot and did an ltsp update.. but still no success...
[20:27] <xangua> DEduc3d: that only works if the one you are talking to also has pidgin and that plugin
[20:28] <esteban> dont work reestablish

[20:29] <highfiver> wts curl used for?
[20:29] <chelz> devfda: it breaks your system pretty badly
[20:29] <devfda> highfiver, its like wget
[20:29] <prodigel> I'm using 9.10
[20:29] <Seveas> !ops | devfda spamming dangerous rm commands
[20:29] <BHoward> devfda quit trying to make people do that crap
[20:29] <esteban> I post the image again http://img687.imageshack.us/img687/4333/pantallazoun.png
[20:29] <DEduc3d> blakkheim: True. That's why I'm seriously considering hosting my own XMPP server.
[20:29] <zeek0124> i need some help i have karmic and ati radeon x1200 series but 3d acceleration doesn't work at all
[20:29] <highfiver> devfda: sorry, total n00b :P
[20:30] <blakkheim> DEduc3d: just use finch through ssh
[20:30] <devfda> hey whats up
[20:30] <highfiver> devfda: i meant i was a n00b
[20:30] <dennis__> Devfda: How do I get to the terminal?
[20:30] <DEduc3d> blakkheim: Finch? I'll have to check that out. Thanks for the recommendation.
[20:30] <Seveas> dennis__, don't ever do what devfda said
[20:30] <blakkheim> DEduc3d: it's the cli version OF pidgin, made by the same people and everything. it's great to run in screen
[20:30] <dennis__> lol I know :p
[20:30] <Callum__> heh, that command wouldn't have done anything on Ubuntu without superuser privileges
[20:31] <xangua> DEduc3d: finch is the comand line version of pidgin
[20:31] <highfiver> so wts curl all about?
[20:31]  * dennis__ sparks
[20:31] <Flannel> DEduc3d: There's also centerim
[20:31] <Seveas> in case anyone just did what devfda said and it gave no errors, reinstall all linux-image and linux-restricted-modules packages you have installed as well as grub or grub-pc
[20:31] <DEduc3d> xangua: blakkheim: Interesting. Not sure of the benefits yet.
[20:31] <bgs100> calrik, That worked, thanks!
[20:31] <bgs100> :D
[20:31] <Darkben> a
[20:32] <Seveas> b
[20:32] <jpds> c
[20:32] <zeek0124> my 3d acceleration is broken on radeon x1200 series
[20:32] <calrik> bgs100: no problem :)
[20:32] <DEduc3d> centerim: Thanks for the recommendation.
[20:33] <BHoward> I am trying to decide on a new laptop and haven't seen much info on peoples experiences with Alienware. Does anybody have some information as far as what type of WiFi card they generally have.
[20:33] <henkpoley> Every so often my system shutsdown bleeping. I mean after X stops is just bleeps until the system turns off.
[20:33] <BHoward> I dont feel like screwing with broadcom
[20:33] <guest_89> Seveas BHoward you total noobs guys!!  that command wont do nothing unless run as root (i was devfda whom you banned :))
[20:33] <kprav33n> When I do 'aptitude install <something>', I notice that the "Reading database..." action has slowed down significantly in my system. Previously, it used to just zoom through. But, now it is crawling. Should I clean up something?
[20:34] <Callum__> on my Ubuntu 9.10 Server, doing a kernel update results in update-grub SIGSEGVing out and stopping the update, anyone have any ideas what the problem might be? Its using an LVM set up spread across three hardware RAID 1 setups...
[20:34] <Seveas> !ops | guest_89 is devfda, back to troll some more
[20:34] <Flannel> guest_89: Malicious commands (even broken ones) aren't welcome here.
[20:34] <guest_89> well nothing it does
[20:34] <guest_89> :)
[20:34] <Callum__> well ban him then
[20:34] <guest_89> im unbannable btw
[20:34] <BHoward> You can think of a lot of Ubuntu users as knowing enough to get them in trouble and will add the pieces to make it work...
[20:34] <Callum__> no one is unbannable
[20:35] <Seveas> BHoward, indeed :)
[20:35] <Seveas> Callum__, I believe certain freenode staff are unbannable on this network :)
[20:35] <ivansmo> please help, I want to setup my xubuntu 8.04 with windows shared folders. I google some and I see that I need start samba service. How to start that service?
[20:36] <BHoward> sudo /init.d/samba start
[20:36] <Seveas> !samba | ivansmo
[20:36] <BHoward> i think
[20:36] <henkpoley> Seveas: or at least they can unban themselves at well, by having access to the IRC server console.
[20:36] <actionParsnip> ivansmo: sudo apt-get install samba
[20:36] <Callum__> Seveas: thats because they have the power to unban themselves or make the bots not want to ban them =P
[20:36] <guntbert> !ot | Callum__
[20:36] <actionParsnip> ivansmo: it will start the service and also will start onboot too
[20:36] <tonyyarusso> henkpoley: nah, channel ops can unban themselves, but network staff are in fact unbannable in the first place.
[20:36] <naadde> I burned ubuntu 9.10 isofile on a cd and booted to it. My computer didn't boot from the disc why?
[20:36] <Callum__> guntbert: I am trying to get some help with a pretty serious problem I have =P
[20:37] <BHoward> @naaddee di you change your bios settings to boot from disk?
[20:37] <ivansmo> it says !samba: event no found
[20:37] <naadde> I can't boot from usb-stick either
[20:37] <semitones> heyo -- does anyone here have Centurion 5 pc cases?
[20:37] <guntbert> Callum__: no idea about your problem - you could try #ubuntu-server too
[20:37] <naadde> I am trying to update from 8.10 to 9.10 so my root get refreshed
[20:37] <BHoward> have you checked your bios settings naadde?
[20:38] <Seveas> !ot | semitones
[20:38] <Callum__> guntbert: Okay, I'll try that =)
[20:38] <naadde> BHoward: yes but can't find what to change there
[20:38] <kprav33n> xangua, Installed Chromium browser and extensions work great! Thanks for the pointer, mate!
[20:38] <actionParsnip> ivansmo: install samba, you can then use nautilus to share folders
[20:38] <guntbert> !upgrade | naadde
[20:38] <actionParsnip> kprav33n: chromium is awesome
[20:38] <naadde> ubottu: but I want it formatted before
[20:38] <naadde> so it becomes faster
[20:38] <Callum__> hehe
[20:39] <calrik> lol
[20:39] <naadde> my computer got so much stuff in the root mixed up
[20:39] <BHoward> naadde go into your bios and just look around for anything about startup options or boot order and you shuold have some success
[20:39] <kprav33n> actionParsnip, I just heard about it today. Still, trying to understand the difference between Chrome and Chromium. Googling and Wikipediaing about it.
[20:39] <naadde> BHoward: i'll do my best
[20:39] <actionParsnip> kprav33n: chromium is bleeding edge
[20:39] <naadde> btw i'm on my minilaptop now
[20:39] <actionParsnip> kprav33n: its also neededto install theextensions
[20:39] <kprav33n> actionParsnip, Oh, Okay!
[20:39] <dinobisk> Is it possible to download keyboard layouts included with Ubuntu somewhere? Mine are not like they should be.
[20:39] <remo> ...
[20:40] <andydam> Hmm.
[20:40] <kprav33n> actionParsnip, That is great! Extensions is what I want! So, Chromium is the right pick for me.
[20:40] <andydam> Can someone help me with Ubuntu?
[20:40] <andydam> I have it on my Apple TV.
[20:40] <grub-untu> hi all, i got a bad problem with grub2..
[20:40] <synackfin> does anyone know how to install r-cran-cpp ?  I tried `sudo apt-get install r-cran-cpp` but it says "Couldn't find package"
[20:40] <grub-untu> i installed ubuntu first, then vista
[20:40] <naadde> BHoward: btw. When I burn the .iso on the disc I want to boot from. Is it okay that it's a .iso burned to the disc?
[20:40] <Seveas> !grub | grub-untu
[20:40] <grub-untu> i can t make grub2 work
[20:40] <Seveas> !grub1 | grub-untu
[20:40] <kprav33n> Do we need to restart the Chromium browser after installing extensions like Firefox?
[20:40] <Seveas> !grub2 | grub-untu
[20:40] <actionParsnip> synackfin: apt-cache search cran
[20:41] <actionParsnip> synackfin: install one of those
[20:41] <xangua> grub-untu: don't do that, install windows first and after linux or anything else
[20:41] <ivansmo> nautilus installing :D
[20:41] <naadde> When I burn the .iso on the disc I want to boot from. Is it okay that it's a .iso burned to the disc?
[20:41] <grub-untu> xangua dont.. i done that
[20:41] <xangua> !ask | andydam
[20:41] <grub-untu> xangua i read that its less easy but possible
[20:41] <andydam> Okay.
[20:41] <basix> does anybody know of a good low latency ftpfs? I need to mount a ftp directory and modify the files in emacs..
[20:42] <Flannel> naadde: No, you don't want to see an iso file on the disk itself, you should see a few folders and files
[20:42] <andydam> I have Ubuntu on my Apple TV, I recently recompiled the kernel, does this mean I need a new UDID for GRUB?
[20:42] <actionParsnip> naadde: sure as long as the iso passes md5 test
[20:42] <grub-untu> xangua so how can i configure grub2 from a ubuntu live(where i-m now)
[20:42] <pepee> hi
[20:42] <andydam> I read about that somewhere, I can't find the link.
[20:42] <synackfin> actionParsnip: how do I find out which one provides Rinternals.h ?
[20:42] <pandemik> who
[20:42] <pepee> I wanna install the latest ati driver, but it requires Xorg 7.4 or lower
[20:43] <trism> grub-untu: read the recover from livecd section of the grub2 wiki link in the factoid, it will guide you through the process
[20:43] <pepee> is secure to install it?
[20:43] <grub-untu> i ll try, thx
[20:43] <pepee> http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/Pages/radeon_linux.aspx?type=2.7&product=2.7.4.3.3.3.1&lang=English
[20:43] <actionParsnip> synackfin: you could use apt-file
[20:44] <actionParsnip> pepee: its the official driver which is fine
[20:44] <calrik> anyone know or can point me in the direction of a guide how to install  flash 10 64bit for linux? I downlaoded the *.so file but don't no how to install it
[20:44] <actionParsnip> pepee: karmic has xorg 7.4
[20:44] <actionParsnip> calrik: what browser do you use?
[20:45] <pwnedulongtime> I'm working on a plugin that converts all flash content in a browser to mpeg on the fly and displays it in the page...need people to test
[20:45] <zeek0124> i need help
[20:45] <calrik> firefox/chrome/chromium
[20:45] <zeek0124> my x1200 series radeon doesnt work on 3d accel
[20:45] <trism> calrik: the instructions for the plugin say you just need to put it in ~/.mozilla/plugins
[20:45] <Seveas> synackfin, r-base-core or r-base-core-ra
[20:46] <calrik> trism: ok thanks
[20:46] <actionParsnip> calrik: sudo cp libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/chromium-browser/plugins
[20:46] <Colloguy_> is it possible to preserve the dns cache across restarts of named?
[20:46] <onaogh> apt-get always gives me a list of packages of software no longer required, and says remove it with apt-get autoremove, shall i autoremove them ??
[20:46] <Seveas> Colloguy_, no.
[20:46] <calrik> I been using the 32 bit version with the nsplugin wrapper but some times it uses up 100% cpu usage :(
[20:46] <Seveas> onaogh, unless you want to keep them
[20:46] <BHoward> @onaogh yes
[20:46] <actionParsnip> calrik: also copy it to ~/.mozilla/plugins     you will need to make the plugins folder
[20:47] <calrik> actionParsnip: thanks
[20:47] <pepee_> sorry...
[20:47] <onaogh> Seveas, BHoward, won't that make problem for my applications, how apt-get is 100% sure ?
[20:47] <pepee_> actionParsnip, but Xorg version is 7.6 on my machine
[20:47] <actionParsnip> calrik: the 64bit one is nice
[20:47] <Pumuky> Hallo. I use KU 9.04 installed with wubi. After a "apt-get dist-upgrade" I reboot my system and Kubuntu doesn't starts. Instead of kubuntu menu, starts grub. How can I repair it?
[20:47] <actionParsnip> pepee: what is the output of: lsb_release -c
[20:47] <actionParsnip> oh well
[20:48] <pepee_> actionParsnip, karmic
[20:48] <Bravewolf> Hello all. I'm using Ubuntu Jaunty 64 bit. I would like to have the system configured in this way: + Italian keyboard; + English language in everything (except the keyboard); + metric system (and not US customary units). It would be very useful to setup the keyboard as English, but only as a temporary change (it's very useful when you have to remotely control some machines). I've selected the English language from System -> Administration -
[20:48] <Bravewolf> > Language support. In this way the keyboard is Italian, the language is English, BUT all the units are the US ones (in, °F, oz, etc.). How can I configure the machine to have the metric system (m, °C, kg, etc.)? Optionally, how can I change change on the fly the keyboard language? Thank you.
[20:48] <actionParsnip> pepee_: i'm on karmic and mine is 7.4
[20:48] <pepee_> hmm ok
[20:48] <pepee_> I think is some ppa...
[20:48] <thedancingdeer> has anyone using chrome seen a process named 'exe' in the system monitor? whenever i kill it, pages on chrome tell me that session saver was killed, it needs to be reloaded! can anyone clear my doubts
[20:49] <BHoward> @onaogh apt-get handles all your dependancies for you. It is generally always right. When it tells you to do autoremove means it has found dependancies no longer needed and autoclean is cleaning out your cache
[20:49] <actionParsnip> pepee_: lucid has 7.5
[20:49] <onaogh> thanks BHoward
[20:49] <actionParsnip> pepee_: sounds like you added the xorg edgers ppa
[20:49] <onaogh> ppa stands for ?
[20:50] <samtry> i installed windowsxp and debain as a dual boot.  after restarted the grub menu does not show windowsxp. it shows linux. also, the timming is so fast that i don't have time to choose linux in recovery mode.  anybody has the answer to this?  thanks
[20:50] <pepee_> actionParsnip, yep
[20:50] <actionParsnip> pepee_: thats why then
[20:50] <pepee_> ok, gonna downgrade
[20:50] <BHoward> ppa - personal package archives
[20:50] <onaogh> samtry, ESC would pause at grub
[20:50] <pepee_> thanks actionParsnip
[20:51] <trism> thedancingdeer: I believe the exe process is what chrome uses to execute plugins, because it uses alot of cpu time when I watch a video in say, youtube
[20:51] <pheonix> how do i fix my background its all blurry
[20:51] <samtry> onaoph - thank you.  what about the windowsxp?
[20:51] <Marach> there is something fucked up with binutils.
[20:51] <hvgotcodes> alright, so in my foolishness i moved from ubuntu to windows.   i want to go back -- i have the karmic beta disc, can i just install from that and update to current?
[20:52] <Marach> binutils-dev need older version of binutils
[20:52] <gpeterso_> My primary ubuntu system has started blasting my local network with traffic for no apparent reason.  Where should I look for help?
[20:52] <guntbert> !language | Marach
[20:52] <Marach> but newer version is required by gcc
[20:52] <pheonix> how do i fix my background its all blurry
[20:52] <blakkheim> !repeat | pheonix
[20:52] <blakkheim> gpeterso_: what kind of traffic
[20:52] <onaogh> samtry, u use grub or grub2
[20:52] <samtry> i tried both
[20:53] <actionParsnip> pheonix: background of what?
[20:53] <pheonix> oh my desktp
[20:53] <pheonix> desktop
[20:53] <gpeterso_> I don't know.  I unplugged the network cable and I'm writing this from my laptop.  HOw do I find out what kind of traffic?
[20:53] <blakkheim> gpeterso_: with a packet sniffer
[20:53] <gpeterso_> Like tshark?
[20:53] <pheonix> when i download a background and use it  it is all blurry
[20:53] <grub-untu> now i restart..
[20:53] <onaogh> samtry, http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-108428.html
[20:53] <blakkheim> gpeterso_: how do you even know it's "blasting traffic" if you don't know that?
[20:53] <thedancingdeer> trism: yeah! i think the session saver extension! the process is gone! i don't think i ever used that extension!
[20:53] <grub-untu> hope it works.... O__O
[20:54] <gpeterso_> Heh.  I can see the lights on my router and DSL modem going crazy, and the home network is really slow.  I can't hardly browse the web.
[20:54] <mac9416> n /join #ubuntu-us-tn
[20:54] <BHoward> I would restart your mode, router, and any computers and see what happens
[20:54] <BHoward> modem*
[20:54] <hvgotcodes> alright, so in my foolishness i moved from ubuntu to windows.   i want to go back -- i have the karmic beta disc, can i just install from that and update to current?
[20:55] <onaogh> gpeterso_, check for loop, that is the same cable going back to switch/router ..etc
[20:55] <samtry> ok look through that but didn't help me any
[20:55] <pheonix> actionparsnip: when i download a background its all blurry when i use it
[20:55] <xangua> hvgotcodes: karmic beta¿¿
[20:55] <hvgotcodes> xangua, yeah thats the disk i havet
[20:55] <onaogh> samtry, it should.
[20:55] <blakkheim> hvgotcodes: you're going to have to download a lot of updates anyway, why not just download the release of 9.10
[20:55] <onaogh> samtry, http://www.google.com.kw/#hl=en&q=add+windows+xp+to+grub&meta=&aq=&oq=add+windows+xp+to+grub&fp=5eac7021ca91071f
[20:56] <xangua> hvgotcodes: better use final stable release
[20:56] <gpeterso_> onaogh, What is loop?  Yes, I have a cable that's been going from desktop to router for years with no problem.
[20:56] <samtry> ok thank you
[20:56] <hvgotcodes> hmm
[20:56] <actionParsnip> pheonix: background for what.....your desktop?
[20:56] <jpds> gpeterso_: Try tcpdump.
[20:56] <hvgotcodes> all right
[20:56] <actionParsnip> pheonix: many apps have backgrounds
[20:56] <pheonix> actionParsnip:yes
[20:56] <onaogh> gpeterso_, some times, when a cable from a switch goes back to same switch, the switch goes crazy and gets slow
[20:56] <BHoward> a loop is a cable with both ends connected to your router
[20:56] <pheonix> actionParsnip: yeah but when i use them as background it goes all blurry
[20:56] <actionParsnip> pheonix: ok do you download wallpapers which match the size of your screen
[20:56] <trism> thedancingdeer: not extensions, plugins, like the flash plugin
[20:57] <gpeterso_> jpds, I'll try it.  I couldn't download tshark due to network too slow.  Hold on while I try.
[20:57] <actionParsnip> pheonix: if you get ones which are small and they get stretched they will go weird
[20:57] <onaogh> gpeterso_, you do as BHoward told, restart everything, if that doesn't work, we will see
[20:57] <dinobisk> How can I with apt-get remove a package and its config files, and reinstall it with one command?
[20:57] <jpds> gpeterso_: And wireshark is your friend too.
[20:57] <jpds> dinobisk: sudo apt-get remove --purge <package> && sudo apt-get install <package>
[20:57] <pheonix> how do i figure out my screen size
[20:58] <actionParsnip> dinobisk: sudo apt-get --purge remove packagename
[20:58] <Guest89383> hola
[20:58] <jpds> pheonix: Do: "xrandr".
[20:58] <Guest89383> soy de sudamerica
[20:58] <Marach> omg...
[20:58] <actionParsnip> pheonix: its your screen resolution
[20:58] <jpds> !es | Guest89383
[20:58] <BHoward> I guess I need to do my homework. bye everybody
[20:58] <M1DLGpc> if i installed ubuntu over the top of an existing install would it destroy it? i need to fix the bootloader
[20:58] <jpds> M1DLGpc: If it formats the / partition, yes.
[20:59] <M1DLGpc> i should have a choice and if it doesn't will it?
[20:59] <iceroot> M1DLGpc: use a live cd and install grub from there
[20:59] <actionParsnip> dinobisk: make sure you run: sudo apt-get --purge autoremove        too to remove the packages which arent needed after the remove
[20:59] <jpds> M1DLGpc: Might be better to chroot into the existing install and install grub.
[20:59] <Marach> binutils-dev needs older version of binutils. when i rollback binutils, gcc and gcc-4.4 is removed. i can reinstall gcc with older version, but there is no older version of gcc-4.4 available!
[20:59] <actionParsnip> M1DLGpc: you can reinstall the bootloader from livecd
[20:59] <dinobisk> jpds: No, that is two commands. I want to get new config files for xkb-data (etc.) without removing X11.
[20:59] <M1DLGpc> i dont knwo how, and flaffing afound for 2 hours with kind help on her didn't bring grub back, it's dual boot
[20:59] <jpds> dinobisk: Only way to do it.
[21:00] <Diverdude> What does these gcc compiler flags do: -L. and -lm ?
[21:00] <dinobisk> jpds: If I do what you say, are not the chances large for breaking X11?
[21:00] <actionParsnip> dinobisk: try: sudo apt-get --reinstall install xkb-data
[21:00] <jpds> dinobisk: Or try... what actionParsnip said.
[21:01] <dinobisk> actionParsnip: I did, but the config files are the same, after rebooting too.
[21:01] <Guest89383> hi
[21:01] <actionParsnip> dinobisk: rename the bad config files then reinstall, see if you get fresh
[21:01] <Marach> :(
[21:02] <Guest89383> I need some help with nvidia mcp78s chipset,
[21:02] <onaogh> dinobisk, backup your existing config files
[21:02] <erUSUL> Diverdude: -lm links math.h -L i dunno
[21:03] <leszek> Leon_ek
[21:03] <switchgirl> anyone know about haystack?
[21:04] <dinobisk> Where are the keyboard layout files located?

[21:10] <noideawhy> guntbert: what version?
[21:10] <klata> What do you think about Google Chrome ?
[21:10] <dinobisk> Seveas: Thanks!
[21:11] <clrg> klata: The main topic here is ubuntu.
[21:12] <klata> Oh, I thought this was a General Topic chat
[21:12] <mneptok> s/ubuntu/ubuntu\ support/
[21:12] <mneptok> klata: #ubuntu-offtopic for random chatter
[21:12] <klata> mmmm kk
[21:12] <darkthing> what is the best IDS for ubuntu
[21:13] <Shadow> What is an IDS ?
[21:13] <gpeterso_> Other computers and the local network/router/modem all work fine when my desktop is turned off or unplugged.  I just plugged it back in and it's uploading something as fast as my internet connection will let it.  I hope it's not all my data...
[21:13] <darkthing> snort = IDS
[21:13] <darkthing> IDS = Intrusor detection system
[21:13] <lacy_> is this the ubuntu help channel ?
[21:13] <mneptok> Shadow: Intrusion Detection System
[21:13] <Vhozard> Anyone knows of a equally good/better Linux Distribution then Ubuntu, with a good package management system ??
[21:13] <Shadow> lacy_: Yes it is
[21:13] <lacy_> thanks
[21:13] <mneptok> Vhozard: Debian?
[21:13] <Mikey^> gpeterso_: Do you have ubuntu one  backup ?
[21:14] <apparle> Vhozard: kubuntu :) although not different
[21:14] <OerHeks> Vhozard Kubuntu ?
[21:14] <mneptok> !best > darkthing
[21:14] <darkthing> ok
[21:14] <Avenegra> hello, i'm noticing strange a file in a folder i'm sharing via samba, named f.e. "toqzvi.exe", after i delete it, it keeps reappearing. the only connection i have is internet and i have iptables all in DROP (also ip6tables), have i been rooted? what can i do?
[21:14] <gpeterso_> Mikey^, I use crashplan and dropbox.  I just killed dropbox and I'm checking crashplan right now...
[21:15] <Mikey^> gpeterso_: Yeah check that
[21:15] <Vhozard> Debian is almost the same as Ubuntu. Kubuntu is not really a different distro....
[21:15] <Mikey^> Vhozard: you can try Fedora if you like rpm
[21:15] <Mikey^> Vhozard: or even Arch linux, check it out
[21:15] <Vhozard> Mikey^ I have tried Fedora. Conclusion: rpm sucks.
[21:16] <Mikey^> Hehe.. ok
[21:16] <Mikey^> Then check Arch
[21:16] <xangua> !ot
[21:16] <Shadow> Arch Linux is nice
[21:16] <Vhozard> Mikey^ I have tried Arch Linux too. Conclusion: Very good, but a pain in the ass to set-up.
[21:16] <blakkheim> Vhozard: it's pretty easy to setup in my opinion
[21:16] <Mikey^> But its only 1 time
[21:16] <Shadow> I did it yesterday its anoyying
[21:16] <gregor_> oh no arch work just fine
[21:16] <clrg> Avenegra: Have you checked your samba logs, eg who uploaded the file? And change all your system passwords, just in case.
[21:16] <Vhozard> Mikey^ With me its not 1 time. I tend to fck things up alot. :)
[21:17] <mneptok> !language > Vhozard
[21:17] <Mikey^> :)
[21:17] <bio-tty> what gstreamer plugin has x264enc?
[21:17] <bio-tty> how can i search for that?
[21:17] <apparle> Vhozard: tried OpenSUSe
[21:17] <bio-tty> abrotman: that one gives nothing, but i tried similar stuff and installed lots of crap.  wasnt in any.
[21:17] <bio-tty> so what plugin contains it and what debian package contains that plugin
[21:17] <mneptok> Vhozard: i think ennough time has been spent in the Ubuntu support channel discussing other distros. you should move the topic to #ubuntu-offtopic.
[21:17] <bio-tty> or .. how can i query the package system and try find it
[21:17] <Vhozard> apparle suse uses rpm, right?
[21:18] <Avenegra> clrg i'll check that right now, but if it's being created by a local proc? is there a way i can identify the process?
[21:18] <Vhozard> yeah, srry mneptok
[21:18] <apparle> Vhozard: ya.... and if you are looking for better than deb then its hard to find
[21:19] <clrg> Avenegra: No local process creates a file out of nothing.
[21:19] <apparle> does the alsa have an euilizer.... my windows sound card driver has one
[21:19] <Avenegra> clrg: well it is owned by nobody:nogroup and perms 10544
[21:20] <semitones> Are NVidia and ATI about equal in terms of linux support these days?
[21:20] <gpeterso_> OK I paused crashplan and stopped dropbox and my computer is uploading data at the maximum rate my internet connection will accept.  I'm trying to download wireshark, but it's really slow...
[21:20] <erUSUL> semitones: not quite
[21:20] <clrg> Avenegra: And please send me the output of "cat /etc/samba/smb.conf | pastebinit"
[21:20] <darkthing> Who is the gui of snort
[21:20] <L3dPlatedLinux> ok I was wondering when I make a custom app launcher icon and have it pointed to the app icon that starts it but clicking it , it doesnt work I still have to go to the folder in question where it is and click it to get it to run any ideas on how to fix it
[21:20] <apparle> semitones: I am waiting for those days
[21:20] <blakkheim> darkthing: a gui isn't needed
[21:20] <semitones> erUSUL: apparle: Is nvidia still the better bet?
[21:20] <Avenegra> clrg: ok thanks hang on
[21:20] <darkthing> To see the logs
[21:22] <apparle> semitones: I guess..... becoz ATi has made my onboard GPU legacy and hence no driver
[21:22] <en1gma1> !ps3
[21:23] <ben__> any help on get my logitech game pad to work, can't find any drivers for it

[21:23] <erUSUL> semitones: yes
[21:23] <mcurran> Anyone here familiar with Metasploit Framework?
[21:23] <clrg> L3dPlatedLinux: If you created the icon correctly, it will work. If you don't, it won't. Make sure you selected the correct binary file.
[21:23] <Avenegra> clrg: http://pastebin.com/f48a59933 mind that i changed the cfg AFTER i noticed strange behaviour, and new files KEEP APPEARING after i changed the cfg

[21:24] <clrg> Avenegra: You haven't shared any folder, only your printers.
[21:25] <clrg> Avenegra: Do you have SSH password authentication enabled or do you use keys?
[21:25] <JonathanEllis> I tried to compile avidemux 2.5.2 for Hardy but it failed. I was considering setting up a ppa but I dont really know how. I think there is a ppa for karmic. Would it make more sense to just use a machine that has karmic?
[21:26] <Avenegra> clrg: ssh is with password, and the shared folder is via gnome, don't know exactly how it works but it uses the workgroup set in smb.conf at least
[21:26] <khem_> can someone recommend me a good web development toolkit such as Dreamweaver or similar? my only requirment is that i can create sepparate "sites" where i easily can transfer files from client to server and vice verca?

[21:27] <ben__> any help on get my logitech game pad to work, can't find any drivers for it
[21:27] <Mikey^> you can try quantas, something kde has

[21:27] <JonathanEllis> khem_: Try quanta or screem
[21:27] <erUSUL> apparle: just tied and works well. better than banshee's eq (really bad one)

[21:28] <erUSUL> apparle: then i dunno
[21:28] <gpeterso_> Thanks for those who tried to help.  It was Crashplan (online backup).  Apparently it will back up files and folders beginning with a dot (.), but it won't tell you their names and you can't find them to restore them.  Doh!  It's kind of expensive for this kind of disappointment.
[21:29] <andialbrecht_> #x
[21:29] <gpeterso_> What are people using for backup.   Ubuntu One anyone?  Are you happy with what you are using?
[21:29] <Mikey^> gpeterso_: good
[21:30] <Mikey^> I use dropbox
[21:30] <gpeterso_> Mikey^, Yes, I thought something evil might be happening.
[21:31] <gpeterso_> Mikey^, You must not back up very much stuff.  I use Dropbox to synch between desktop and laptop.  I'd hate to have it start trying to download my entire life's data when I just want to access my passwor file.
[21:31] <chelz> !backup | gpeterso_
[21:32] <chelz> khem_: there's also bluefish
[21:32] <clrg> gpeterso_: Try rsync. I use it for backup/restore all the time, works like a dream.
[21:33] <gpeterso_> clrg, Where do you backup to?  My cheap hosting company won't accept backup data...
[21:34] <bio-tty> how do i find out what package contains a file that i have installed?
[21:34] <clrg> gpeterso_: To my file server.
[21:34] <khem_> thankyou all, will try them out!
[21:34] <gpeterso_> chelz/ubottu: Pardon my stupidity, but what's the exclamation mark for?  What's !sbackup and !cloning?
[21:34] <clrg> gpeterso_: You could also use an external hard disk.
[21:34] <Avenegra> can someone who hasn't got kaka in the brain help me out? i'm having real trouble with trojan-like activity on my laptop
[21:35] <bio-tty> i know a file i need, and i wonder what package that did install it.
[21:35] <clrg> gpeterso_: That's for calling the bot.
[21:35] <blakkheim> Avenegra: details might help
[21:35] <gpeterso_> @clrg at home?  I guess I really want something offsite.  Also, what is "the bot".  Sounds like it's coming to get me or something.

[21:37] <erUSUL> Avenegra: if your machine has been compromised the only option is a full reinstall. you will never be really sure what they've done or not ....
[21:37] <bullgard>  What is the most common function in Ubuntu of the key combination Ctrl+D?
[21:37] <Avenegra> blakkheim: thank you, these are the details: yesterday i noticed an oddly-named file appearing in my (only) samba share. something like "toqzvi.exe"
[21:37] <clrg> gpeterso_: Exactly. It respons to keywords with preprogrammed messages.
[21:37] <Avenegra> erUSUL: i have secured it now, at least more than it was
[21:37] <erUSUL> bullgard: in terminal it means EOF
[21:37] <chelz> !keys | bullgard
[21:37] <kaddi_> Avenegra: check whatever windows install is on the other hand of that samba share. It is probably infected with malware that spreads through network shares
[21:37] <chelz> bullgard: also in firefox it bookmarks a page
[21:37] <Avenegra> can it try to identfy the posible process/es?
[21:37] <blakkheim> Avenegra: there is an unpatched exploit in samba currently, but that seems normal because windows machines get infected all the time.
[21:38] <blakkheim> Avenegra: it's probably someone else's rooted computer trying to spread to yours
[21:38] <Avenegra> kaddi_: i thought that it was exactly that
[21:38] <Avenegra> but
[21:38] <StuckMojo> !upgrade
[21:38] <Avenegra> i am now disconected of localnets
[21:38] <gpeterso_> !sbackup
[21:38] <Avenegra> and the file keeps appearing
[21:38] <chelz> Avenegra: you can try uploading it to a site like http://virustotal.com
[21:38] <Avenegra> i have shut all INPUT and FORWARD in ipv4
[21:38] <kaddi_> chelz beat me to it :p

[21:39] <chelz> Juanjo-sfe: did you install the package?
[21:39] <Niku_baiviku> can i get from 9.10 back to 9.04?
[21:39] <erUSUL> Juanjo-sfe: installed ubuntu-restricted extras ?
[21:39] <chelz> Niku_baiviku: only through a fresh install
[21:39] <chelz> Niku_baiviku: it's almost always better to fix what issues you have with a later version though
[21:40] <xangua> Niku_baiviku: downgrade¿ no, download and install yes
[21:40] <bullgard> urUSUL, chelz Thank you.

[21:43] <gpeterso_> Thanks everyone for your help and your patience.  I'll explore the backup links later.  Maybe I'll end up designating a backup machine in the house and run an rsync server there.
[21:43] <chelz> astrojp: if that's what the boxee people say, then yes. ideally if they have some repo to add, such as a ppa, doing that is good
[21:43] <chelz> gpeterso_: i hear some people use rsnapshot, if that's mentioned
[21:43] <Lartza_> chelz: What the hell did I just say?

[21:45] <chelz> Niku_baiviku: read this page and follow the instructions on it: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[21:45] <gpeterso_> @semitones: I think the intel motherboard cards are autodetected and tend to work out of the box.  All others require configuration.  Just my experience, I'm no expert.
[21:45] <erUSUL> semitones: all are supported at least by the vesa driver ;)
[21:45] <diabolic_> rami-, kifak
[21:45] <astrojp> chelz: Thanks.
[21:45] <chelz> diabolic_: using OpenOffice.org is suggested but if you *really* want to use MS Office you need to use Wine

[21:47] <daftykins> ben__: it doesn't really work that way. you can install a package which is a graphical frontend to 'lshw' though to get a graphical view of system info. what are you after specifically?
[21:48] <chelz> !pl | Emir
[21:48] <Juanjo-sfe> erUSUL, still dont work on firefox, I'v reinsalled

[21:48] <Emir> is anybody from poland?

[21:48] <Emir> see ya
[21:48] <daftykins> titan_ark: you just open a terminal and type "ssh hostname" then ;) see "man ssh" for options
[21:48] <titan_ark> trism: is it? wow! shall try it. but is it the best way to do it? =)
[21:49] <Duskao> hey does anyone know a program similar to network magic for linux?
[21:49] <chelz> od3n: they might be included or in the repos. this might have info: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Madwifi
[21:49] <Lartza_> chelz: /sbin/pvscan

[21:49] <gpeterso_> titan_ark: daftykins is assuming you have sshd (the ssh "host" daemon) running on your school system.
[21:49] <trism> titan_ark: there is no best, I usually just use the command line client myself (openssh-client), but putty is fine too
[21:49] <titan_ark> trism: and what is the vnc client i need to use?

[21:50] <Avenegra> chelz, blakkheim, erUSUL: submitting the file to virustotal.com reports a windows PE trojan, i have deleted it now and hasn't reappeared.

And what's worse i have sensitive information here from my work (f.e. ssh keys)

[21:51] <chelz> Niku_baiviku: yes it is, follow these instructions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver
[21:51] <gpeterso_> titan_ark: Yeah, if you do what daftykins says (ssh your_id@hostname) you'll find out quickly if you have access or not.
[21:52] <web1109> i'm using ubuntu 9.10 i386 alternate.iso. I used manual partitioning, the installer never asked me for grub location. At the end I chose "go back" instead of reboot, then in the menu chose install GRUB to disk, it then searches for other OSes and proceeds to install to (hd0) without asking me! how do I trick it into (hd0,3)?
[21:52] <chelz> web1109: manually install it to (hd0,3)
[21:52] <gpeterso_> titan_ark - someone else just mentioned putty on windows.  I must have confused you with them.

[21:53] <olskolirc> what is the best mp3 player out there now that we don't have xmms anymore
[21:53] <titan_ark> gpeterso_: yes it was I who mentioned it. i was saying that i used that on windows and was looking for alternatives on ubuntu
[21:53] <web1109> chelz: I want to do it from the current instance of the installation
[21:53] <Duskao> erUSUL: it's a network manager, connection to other computers in the network with file sharing and all that, check it out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_LOF0Iv0QOo

[21:53] <guntbert> Lartza_: tried it here - with a 9.04 live CD lvm installs just fine (I used aptitude instead of apt-get)

[21:54] <Avenegra> chelz: no i don't have any wine processes running. File hasn't reappeared, well i'll hope everything it's ok now. I'll search for ways to audit my system
[21:54] <web1109> chelz: When I choose install GRUB to disk, it proceeds to search for OSes, but then without asking me installs to (hd0), why does it not ask me? On a similar computer the same steps resulted in it asking me for the location!
[21:55] <chelz> Lartza_: trust me next time :P
[21:55] <Lartza_> Still not me doing this :P
[21:55] <titan_ark> gpeterso_, daftykins: i tried your_id@hostname and i am being prompted for my password now. but dont i need to do any tunnling for security and set up ports etc?
[21:55] <Lartza_> Waiting to hear if it worked for the guy
[21:55] <web1109> how does the option "install grub to disk" search for other OSes? Does it look for boot records of mbr, partitions? or files/dirs on partitions?
[21:55] <caravena> Hello, I have problem with harddisc external http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15236

[21:56] <Guest14232> Doies anyone know why i am geting the error "unable to burn to disk"
[21:57] <guntbert> Lartza_: if "the guy" is me: I already told you: tried it here - with a 9.04 live CD lvm installs just fine (I used aptitude instead of apt-get)
[21:57] <Lartza_> No the guy I am helping :D

[21:57] <Guest14232> i am trying to burn a copy of Fedora to a CD and nothing will bloody burn the iso. this has been a bug since 2006 and quite frankly the ubnuntu support and bufg fixes suck badly and i now whant to go back to Fedora, a distro that works rather than makes your wqork
[21:57] <guntbert> Lartza_: :)
[21:58] <chelz> Guest14232: you most likely have something else using the drive
[21:58] <Guest14232> the burner i am using in connected via sata which is a scsi under linux as far as i know
[21:58] <Guest14232> the fstab is all running fine it's just that nothing will burn any iso (yes i have tried several others) to any discs
[21:58] <gpeterso_> titan_ark: That means sshd is running on the server.  You need an account on that server that's authorized for ssh.
[21:59] <titan_ark> gpeterso_: yes, i have one
[21:59] <crash21081> I really like the Libraries feature in Win7.  It collects various folders from around my computer, sat on external HDDs, and organizes them in one window.
[21:59] <gpeterso_> titan_ark: soo, can you log in?
[21:59] <crash21081> Is there something like that on Ubuntu?
[21:59] <diabolic_> rami_,
[21:59] <Seveas> crash21081, tracker
[21:59] <titan_ark> gpeterso_: i dint enter the password. cos, i remember being told that i need to set up tunneling to have a secure connection.
[21:59] <rami_> hello
[21:59] <diabolic_> rami_:
[21:59] <titan_ark> gpeterso_: shouldnt i do that first?
[22:00] <Lartza_> chelz, guntbert: He got access to LVM's thanks :)
[22:00] <rami_> diab
[22:00] <DarkLordHell> umm
[22:00] <gpeterso_> ssh is (in theory) a secure connection, but if you want to be sure, read the man page (man ssh) to make sure you are using the right options and verify you aren't using an outdated protocol.
[22:00] <Lartza_> Atleast propably he got :D
[22:00] <erUSUL> Duskao: i do not know of anything similar
[22:00] <Duskao> alright, thanks
[22:00] <chelz> web actually follow grub2
[22:00] <chelz> !grub2 | web1109
[22:00] <guntbert> Lartza_: nice :)
[22:01] <titan_ark> gpeterso_: ah okay. dont have much idea about all this. shall give it a read but.
[22:01] <Guest22824> anyone know anything about pureedge?
[22:01] <crash21081> Seveas, I'm not talking about a search engine.
[22:02] <titan_ark> gpeterso_: if it is already secure then what is the need to tunnel?

[22:02] <Guest14232> ok. think i found the problem
[22:02] <Guest14232> DMA. how do i turn on DMA on the cdrom reader/ urner? through bios?
[22:02] <gpeterso_> titan_ark: You can use ssh -2 to only connect with the version 2 protocol (better than version 1).  There may be other options you can set, just to be sure.
[22:02] <Guest14232> or within linux
[22:02] <Niku_baiviku> ive used the command $ lspci -nn | grep VGA on my console

[22:06] <R0b0t1> Hello. I'm trying to set up my keyboard so I can swap between USA Macintosh (I use an aluminum keyboard -- also, how can I select it? I don't see a 110 key generic, etc) and "USA Russian phonetic" I looked and the default switch key should be both Alt keys together... but this doesn't work.
[22:06] <erUSUL> Niku_baiviku: as i told you before you have to use the free radeon driver with that card
[22:06] <Niku_baiviku> thanks Muad'Dib
[22:06] <erUSUL> Niku_baiviku: you probably already are using it it is installed by default
[22:06] <gpeterso_> titan_ark: If you can get to the ssh port at school, that means A.) you are running a VPN and don't know it (unlikely) or B.) it's a public port that everyone has access to.  If B, then you don't need a VPN (there's nothing to VPN-to anyway in that case).
[22:06] <JonathanEllis> guntbert: It says "Linux theresa-laptop 2.6.31-16-generic #53-Ubuntu SMP Tue Dec 8 04:02:15 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux". I know this machine has a 64 bit processor but I dont know if its running 64 bit Ubuntu
[22:06] <erUSUL> Niku_baiviku: ;)
[22:07] <erUSUL> JonathanEllis: x86_64 --> 64 bits
[22:07] <mrclean_> how can I configure grpn to run in window instead of full screen?
[22:07] <gpeterso_> titan_ark: You ask something I don't really know.  I think ssh tunneling is like where you ssh into host 1.  Once there, you ssh into host 2, thus creating a tunnel from your machine to host2 through host1.
[22:07] <JonathanEllis> erUSUL: Does that mean my computer is 64 bit or my OS is 64 bit?
[22:08] <guntbert> JonathanEllis: what a surprise - the last time I looked it was "amd64" now it is indeed "x86_64" so you are running a 64bit kernel
[22:08] <alves_rn> hello, is anybody using a joystick?
[22:08] <erUSUL> JonathanEllis: well your os is 64 bits and that implies that your cpu is 64 bits too
[22:08] <web1109> is os-prober used to bring up the list of operating systems on boot OR is it used to judge whether to ask me for (hd0) location of grub install?
[22:08] <JonathanEllis> guntbert and erUSUL: Thanks
[22:09] <guntbert> erUSUL: when was "amd64" replaced by "x86_64" ?
[22:09] <chelz> alves_rn: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=338457
[22:09] <erUSUL> JonathanEllis: no problem
[22:09] <chelz> web1109: it determines what needs entries in the grub menu
[22:09] <titan_ark> gpeterso_: i am not too aware of why i was doing what i did. if i were to explain the steps: i log in using putty then i get a session id, with that id i had to prefix 59 to get the port. i then set up a profile in putty with the UID, PWD, port # etc and connect. after that I use VNC to connect to the localhost.
[22:09] <Screamo_Smurf> i cant sudo apt-get install anything :(

[22:10] <R0b0t1> sorry
[22:10] <R0b0t1> oops
[22:10] <erUSUL> guntbert: i only remember x86_64 (i use 64 bit since intrepid )
[22:10] <guntbert> erUSUL: ok, then my memory failed me :)
[22:10] <chelz> web1109: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Dual-booting
[22:11] <web1109> chelz: so then it os-prober is not responsible for reason the "install grub to harddisk" option of the alternate cd, not asking me for the location
[22:11] <chelz> Screamo_Smurf: pastebin the output you get
[22:11] <sebastiano> hi, so with skype now gone from medibuntu, the package I am supposed to install is the intrepid one from the skype website even if I run karmic?
[22:11] <chelz> web1109: correct
[22:12] <gpeterso_> titan_ark.  I never use VNC, but I know you can through ssh.  I do everything through the command line.  You'll have to ask someone else, or else install putty and do it the way you know how.  Don't let me scare you off using ssh.  It's a great tool and the most secure way to connect to another machine without using a VPN.

[22:28] <chelz> Screamo_Smurf: look around in network manager
[22:28] <Screamo_Smurf> but there were some in there i didnt put in that i overwrote
[22:28] <songer> actionParsnip,  on turn on my pc then says out of range, i make switch with  ctrl+alt+f4
[22:28] <Screamo_Smurf> i use wvdial
[22:28] <actionParsnip> excalibas: sure is
[22:28] <chelz> gbear14275: forcing is dangerous. if you want to then read man apt-get, i do not recommend that though
[22:28] <rootpower> the underlying autohrization mechanism (sud) does not allow you to run this program. contact your system admin
[22:28] <JerryS> Hey, I'm trying to install Ubuntu 9.10 on my netbook (mini 311), and I need a way to blacklist the broadcom wifi device.  Problem is I can't boot into Ubuntu
[22:28] <JerryS> can someone help me?
[22:28] <actionParsnip> songer: rename xorg.conf too then
[22:29] <chelz> Screamo_Smurf: do you have an original copy of your dhclient.conf ?
[22:29] <Slart> rootpower: what program are you trying to run?
[22:29] <Screamo_Smurf> no i do not :(
[22:29] <gbear14275> chelz... worst that happens is I have to uninstall and reinstall everything right?  Or am I missing some other risk?
[22:29] <rootpower> synaptic
[22:29] <actionParsnip> songer: you may need to form an xorg.conf file to set the display right
[22:29] <songer> how
[22:29] <Screamo_Smurf> well im going to restart and try again
[22:29] <chelz> gbear14275: "everything" being "ubuntu" then yeah. could corrupt apt
[22:29] <Slart> rootpower: so you write "gksudo synaptic" in a terminal, right? (gksudo since it's a gui program)
[22:29] <songer> i.ve been trayn all tutorial
[22:30] <rootpower> yes
[22:30] <rootpower> and it gives that error
[22:30] <rootpower> and, it doesn't make me dinner
[22:30] <excalibas> actionParsnip, very cool, and is there something I have to do dfiferent?
[22:30] <chelz> !blacklist | JerryS
[22:30] <MMKK> I have a question about a very old program/protocol, and I hope someone can help me with it. Basically, what do I need to configure in my router (i.e. port forwarding) to get talk/ntalk to work over the Internet? Also, is this a horrible security risk?
[22:30] <Slart> rootpower: hmm.. works alright here.. have you made any changes to your sudo configuration?
[22:30] <gbear14275> chelz: Really?!  as in my entire system?!
[22:30] <chelz> !usb | excalibas
[22:30] <gbear14275> chelz: I figured just the related packages
[22:30] <guntbert> MMKK: ##networking might be better suited
[22:30] <rootpower> no I haven't that  is why I'm asking for help
[22:30] <chelz> excalibas: look into the persistent live USB
[22:31] <rootpower> I don't see what I done wrong
[22:31] <JerryS> ubottu: Can I do that from a Live CD?
[22:31] <excalibas> thanks chelz
[22:31] <MMKK> guntbert: thanks :)
[22:31] <chelz> gbear14275: it's possible at least. doesn't mean it will happen for sure. just better to do things in a safe order.
[22:31] <rootpower> but  if I drop to a shell the root passwork works...
[22:31] <Slart> rootpower: the user your currently logged in as.. it it in the admin group?
[22:31] <chelz> rootpower: use "gksudo synaptic"
[22:31] <rootpower> but I cant start a GUI in the terminal shell
[22:31] <chelz> sudo and gksudo are different
[22:32] <chelz> rootpower: are you on ubuntu desktop or server?
[22:32] <chelz> rootpower: synaptic is a gui program, you need x to use it
[22:32] <dinobisk> Is there any list of the xkb keycodes and their corresponding symbold? (I have googled for some time now.)
[22:32] <rootpower> I am on a desktop
[22:32] <chelz> !gksudo rootpower
[22:32] <chelz> !gksudo | rootpower
[22:33] <chelz> dinobisk: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=434641 ?
[22:33] <Slart> rootpower: are you running this from a TTY? or from a terminal in X ?
[22:33] <rootpower> GKSU opens the pasword prompt but it doesn't accept my password
[22:33] <chelz> rootpower: what is the output of "groups youruser"
[22:34] <actionParsnip> rootpower: then boot to root recovery mode and reset your password
[22:34] <erUSUL> rootpower: are you usiong your user's password?
[22:34] <rootpower> the output is rootpower
[22:35] <pedro> hi
[22:35] <chelz> rootpower: pastebin your terminal after you do it
[22:35] <chelz> !hi | pedro
[22:36] <rootpower> rootpower@homedesktop:~$ groups rootpower
[22:36] <rootpower> rootpower
[22:36] <Bookman> Is there an equivalent to MESS for Ubuntu/Linux?
[22:36] <guntbert> rootpower: is that the "first" user on your ssystem?
[22:36] <pedro> apt gives me an authentication error with the deafult repositories http://dpaste.com/155579/ , it happens with some packages, namely compiz config
[22:36] <pedro> anyone has the same problem?
[22:36] <rootpower> no second the first is root
[22:36] <Slart> rootpower: are you running ubuntu? or some derivative?
[22:37] <dinobisk> chelz: No, they have names like "quoutedbl", "currency", "slash", but I have not found any list of them yet.
[22:37] <actionParsnip> !find xmess
[22:37] <rootpower> upgraded from kde to ubuntu

[22:37] <actionParsnip> Bookman: ^
[22:37] <chelz> rootpower: kubuntu to ubuntu?
[22:37] <rootpower> yes
[22:38] <CoOlGhOsT> meh... hit enter too soon :-)
[22:38] <ThunderBird89> guys, does SSHFS work when given only a local IP?
[22:38] <chelz> rootpower: reboot to recovery mode and do this: rootpower: sudo usermod -G rootpower,adm,uucp,dialout,cdrom,floppy,audio,dip,video,plugdev,scanner,netdev,lpadmin,powerdev,admin rootpower
[22:38]  * Slart wonders what happens if you try to make your first user use the username root
[22:38] <actionParsnip> ThunderBird89: sure, it can use ip or name
[22:38] <chelz> ThunderBird89: don't forget the :
[22:38] <blakkheim> ThunderBird89: i use sshfs on a server on my LAN if that answers you
[22:38] <actionParsnip> Slart: i'd imagine it would moan
[22:38] <Yarcanox> http://pastebin.com/d4ffff448 is this ssl key generation ok?
[22:38] <Yarcanox> for a self-signed certificate
[22:38] <Slart> actionParsnip: hopefully there is some sanity checks in the installer
[22:39] <guntbert> rootpower: wait - did you when installing give the name "root" to the user for which you were prompted?
[22:39] <Yarcanox> I want to use it in nginx which doesn't really work at all
[22:39] <actionParsnip> ThunderBird89: if it doesnt like it add an entry in /etc/hosts for the ip and use that name
[22:39] <Yarcanox> so I wonder whether the way to generate the certificate is flawed
[22:39] <ThunderBird89> right, I was forgetting the :
[22:39] <`mOOse`> bleachbit r0xors
[22:39] <ronnn> (5:39:28 pm) :) hi everyone, when you have time go to heaventruth.org :)
[22:39] <actionParsnip> Slart: i'd hope so too
[22:39] <pedro> :(
[22:39] <CoOlGhOsT> Hey - Im using NetworkManager to connect to my WPA enabled wifi enabled network, but sometimes starting up gnome is unnecessary. So my question is: how do I get my connection established manually?
[22:39] <_schism_> anyone have a few minutes to help me with a mic problem?
[22:40] <blakkheim> CoOlGhOsT: use wicd, it has an ncurses interface as well as gtk
[22:40] <actionParsnip> CoOlGhOsT: you can use /etc/network/interfaces a better idea would be to use wicd which has a cli interface also
[22:40] <ThunderBird89> I'm setting up a rapid LAN file exchange between winXP and Ubuntu. getting this to work is not going to be pretty... :D
[22:40] <`mOOse`> _schism_ - more cowbell
[22:40] <excalibas> chelz, I can't find information on those sites about upgrading, I have created a live usb with perssistence using  the USB Startup Disk Creator and then booted and did apt-get update, apt-get upgrade, and it seems to be working, but it makes some questions (I think when updating grub) and I don't know what to do
[22:40] <BHoward> @coolghost http://xibex.blogspot.com/2008/08/connect-to-wpa-connection-via-terminal.html
[22:40] <_schism_> lol
[22:41] <actionParsnip> excalibas: if its the first time you have booted to it then use the maintainers version
[22:41] <chelz> CoOlGhOsT: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=571188
[22:41] <CoOlGhOsT> blakkheim & actionParsnip: I moved from wicd to nm when Í upgraded to karmic :-(
[22:41] <actionParsnip> excalibas: if you have changed the file it names then you may want to view the changes
[22:41] <CoOlGhOsT> BHoward: thanks... gonna go check it out
[22:42] <chelz> excalibas: what are the questions?
[22:42] <triple_xxx> excalibas: if you upgraded to 9.10 it will change to grub2 I beleve
[22:42] <actionParsnip> CoOlGhOsT: you can use /etc/network/interfaces to set it up but the device will not be configurable in nm
[22:42] <CoOlGhOsT> chelz: thank... i already found a couple of thread, but none that helped :(
[22:42] <kaddi_> triple_xxx: upgrade to 9.10 retain grub and ext3 only fresh installs switch to grub2 and ext4 afaik
[22:42] <chelz> CoOlGhOsT: that one might
[22:42] <excalibas> actionParsnip, yes, i think that's it, It is the first time, so I just pressed ok and didn't change nothing, so that's it?
[22:42] <gbear14275> ok... I'm stumped... either I'm using the apt-get force command wrong or its a stubborn bastard: http://paste.ubuntu.com/370536/
[22:43] <actionParsnip> kaddi_: by default, you can use ext3 in 9.10 if you wish
[22:43] <jah> Where is the g.u.i tool to deactivate/activate system services and change their run level settings e.t.c, i used to remember gnome services, but i cannot locate this in the Administrator menu
[22:43] <CoOlGhOsT> actionParsnip: yeah... normally i DO start gnome, its just for the times that I dont... like when updating nvidia driver
[22:43] <CoOlGhOsT> chelz: im gonna go have a look.. thanks
[22:43] <triple_xxx> kaddi_: good to know why did they change defualt to grub2??? it sucks
[22:43] <guntbert> jah: runlevels don't count on ubuntu any more
[22:43] <actionParsnip> CoOlGhOsT: use the nvidia ppa and it can all be done on the desktop
[22:43] <kaddi_> actionParsnip: Good to nkow. :) I've only done upgrades so far, so I have the "old" ext still
[22:43] <BHoward> Im trying to decide on a new laptop that will be great with ubuntu. Trying to stay under $1000 and i need an nvidia card that will support cuda. any suggestions?
[22:43] <jah> so whats the equivalent?
[22:44] <erUSUL> !info bum | jah
[22:44] <Bookman> actionParsnip, I have installed the xmess files but I cannot seem to find documentation on how to go about using it.
[22:44] <trism> CoOlGhOsT: if you install the interface in network manager for all users, it should work on boot (instead of when you log in)
[22:44] <kaddi_> triple_xxx: because the old version was already installed and working I woudl guess. Fresh installs get grub2, afaik
[22:44] <chelz> jah: maybe system -> preferences -> sessions
[22:44] <actionParsnip> Bookman: i think you need xmess-sdl you can run the stuff from cli there,i believe there are frontends
[22:44] <CoOlGhOsT> trism: and how is that done?
[22:44] <jah> in 10.04 there is no longer a sessions
[22:44] <rootpower> he gives an error group not found:powerdev and dailout
[22:44] <bastid_raZor> !hardware
[22:44] <CoOlGhOsT> actionParsnip: how often is the ppa updated?
[22:44] <actionParsnip> !lucid |jah
[22:44] <guntbert> !lucid | jah
[22:45] <bastid_raZor> BHoward: ^
[22:45] <chelz> rootpower: take those out of the list then
[22:45] <actionParsnip> CoOlGhOsT: not sure, it has the 195 driver
[22:45] <carpediem> jah: Startup Applications
[22:45] <chelz> rootpower: but add the rest
[22:45] <phek> if dpkg lists a package as "deinstall" what exactly does that mean?
[22:45] <jah> carpediem, you da man
[22:45] <Bookman> actionParsnip, yeah, I'm just having trouble finding a gui frontend or documentation for the cli version
[22:45] <actionParsnip> CoOlGhOsT: https://launchpad.net/~nvidia-vdpau/+archive/ppa has 195.30
[22:45] <actionParsnip> Bookman: man xmess-sdl
[22:46] <CoOlGhOsT> actionParsnip: i never thought of a ppa option... you rock :-) thanks
[22:46] <trism> CoOlGhOsT: check the box for "Available to all users" or start nm-connection-editor with gksudo and create the interface that way
[22:46] <triple_xxx> why are these release dates of ubuntu so close???
[22:46] <Bookman> actionParsnip, I tried that, no entry.
[22:46] <endeavormac> where can i report package errors?
[22:46] <chelz> triple_xxx: they're all 6 months apart
[22:46] <gbear14275> can somsone tell me what I'm doing wrong here? http://paste.ubuntu.com/370536/  I am trying to force an action and failing miserably with no apparant reason given as to why it wont let me.
[22:47] <chelz> !bugs | endeavormac
[22:47] <Colloguy_> for bind9, is there an option to have it respond to dns requests from 127.0.0.1 only?
[22:47] <gbear14275> triple_xxx: Ubuntu is a time released distribution... with a 6 month cycle
[22:47] <triple_xxx> chelz: with as many errors you got in 9.10 I figure they push it back
[22:47] <endeavormac> thanks
[22:47] <rootpower> solved it just add root in the list :P
[22:47] <rootpower> but thanks for the time
[22:48] <chelz> gbear14275: it keeps trying to upgrade kvm. remove the ppa already. "The following packages will be upgraded:  qemu-kvm"
[22:48] <aiwa> how do i send files on xchat?
[22:48] <guntbert> rootpower: thats wrong - but ....
[22:48] <rootpower> it worked
[22:48] <chelz> aiwa: right click on a username and click "send file". you need to open ports though usually. it might be easier to email it, upload it somewhere, or send over some IM network
[22:48] <Niku_baiviku> http://paste.ubuntu.com/370539/
[22:48] <actionParsnip> rootpower: i'd add the other groups you should be a member of including admin, then take yourself out of root
[22:50] <chelz> Niku_baiviku: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/293012/comments/9
[22:51] <chelz> Niku_baiviku: do all the apt-get stuff
[22:51] <ukcuf> hi
[22:51] <dinobisk> chelz: For the record: Unicode can be used.
[22:52] <ukcuf> can somebody give me some good irc commands guidbook?
[22:52] <chelz> ukcuf: are you using xchat?
[22:52] <ukcuf> (please)
[22:52] <ukcuf> yep
[22:52] <ukcuf> but i wanna learn the commands
[22:53] <PyroPhelia> whats the command to see all the groups a user is part of?
[22:53] <Slart> ukcuf: http://www.ircbeginner.com/ircinfo/ircc-commands.html
[22:53] <actionParsnip> PyroPhelia: groups <user>
[22:53] <ukcuf> thanks !!!
[22:54] <perlsyntax> i was thinking of put linux on my dell desktop and it has a intel G45 express chipset is that supported by linux?
[22:54] <Slart> ukcuf: those are the basic ones.. there are more on that site but they differ from server to server
[22:54] <PyroPhelia> ty
[22:54] <chelz> ukcuf: http://t0x.in/xchat.html - this site has a lot
[22:54] <actionParsnip> PyroPhelia: if its the current user then you can just run: groups
[22:54] <chelz> ukcuf: http://xchatdata.net/ also this one
[22:54] <ardchoille> ukcuf: Can you change your nick please? I find it offensive
[22:54] <PyroPhelia> no it wasn't, but that's good to know as well.
[22:54] <perlsyntax> :)
[22:54] <chelz> ukcuf: i got it from http://xchat.org/docs/
[22:54] <perlsyntax> anyone
[22:54] <ukcuf> offensive?
[22:54] <ukcuf> why?
[22:54] <jonne> is it possible/wise to use nspluginwrapper to run 32 bits flash in a 32 bits browser on a 32 bits system?
[22:54] <jonne> I just want flash to stop crashing Firefox
[22:54] <chelz> perlsyntax: try a livedisc
[22:55] <Slart> ukcuf: you're the one that came up with it.. don't pretend you don't know why you chose it
[22:55] <actionParsnip> jonne: its handy for if flash crashes you can kill nspluginwrapper and it wont destroy the browser
[22:55] <perlsyntax> no i have not got the dell desktop yet want to make sure before i get it.
[22:55] <chelz> jonne: when flash crashes, it takes firefox with it. that's how it works for now.
[22:55] <actionParsnip> jonne: have you tried 10.1 plugin?
[22:55] <ukcuf> yeh, i but even if my nick was "fuckUall" - why should it disturb anyone?
[22:55] <jonne> yes, i tried 10.1, it still crashes
[22:56] <PyroPhelia> after I add a user to a group do I need to log out and back in for the changes to take affect?
[22:56] <ardchoille> !language | ukcuf
[22:56] <actionParsnip> jonne: have you tried adding the mozilla ppa and updating
[22:56] <Slart> ukcuf: #ubuntu is a channel oriented towards all users.. since it's support channel for Ubuntu.. the rules here are more strict than your general social irc channel
[22:57] <jonne> what will that do for me?
[22:57] <Slart> !coc > ukcuf
[22:57] <chelz> jonne: you could try flashblock
[22:57] <ukcuf> i understand. i just cant understand who can be hurt of it...?
[22:57] <Slart> !guidelines > ukcuf
[22:57] <actionParsnip> jonne: it will give you a later build of the same version, it may iron out some bugs
[22:57] <PyroPhelia> better question, how do I make changes to a users group permissions WITHOUT logging out?
[22:57] <Killa> !guidelines
[22:57] <ardchoille> ukcuf: Just change it please
[22:57] <jonne> I have flashblock, it helps a lot, but sometimes I want to look at flash movies
[22:57] <Slart> ukcuf: it's a policy thing.. this isn't the place to discuss it
[22:57] <actionParsnip> jonne: you can also try removing some plugins to see if its better

[22:58] <actionParsnip> zach_: you need libdvdcss2 from medibuntu repos

[22:58] <lla> now.. can anybody explain me what is the big deal? =)
[22:58] <chelz> jonne: you could try Google Chrome. it doesn't crash when flash crashes
[22:58] <Diverdude> My package manager tells me: The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: <and then a long list of packages>. Can I somehow remove all these packages easily?
[22:58] <zach_> ok, ill give it a shot
[22:58] <Slart> lla: mind if I pm you? since we're offtopic
[22:59] <jonne> so I guess nobody has taken the nspluginwrapper route?

[22:59] <Sayge> Trying to install 64bit Ubuntu 9.10, but keeping this error "mount: mount/dev/sr0 on /cdrom failed: invalid argument" when I try to install it.  Tried with a 32 bit version I have no such problem on the same computer.  Wondering if anyone could bounce some ideas at me on how to solve it
[22:59] <ardchoille> Slart: Thank you
[22:59] <zach_> I have the ubuntu-restricted-extras donwloaded and installed, still doesn't work

[22:59] <erUSUL> jonne: all 64 bit users use the wrapper ;)
[22:59] <chelz> zach_: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html#video-dvd
[22:59] <actionParsnip> zach_: its not in that package, you need libdvdcss2 from medibuntu repo
[22:59] <chelz> zach_: reading the pages helps
[23:00] <gbear14275> jonne: unless you depend on firefox add ins... chrome (and chromium) are way faster and work great!
[23:00] <Sayge> Hmm.  OKay, I'll give that idea a try, thank you.
[23:00] <Kartagis> !syslog
[23:00] <chelz> Diverdude:  The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required
[23:00] <jonne> i kinda like the html validator, firebug adblock and flashblock
[23:00] <chelz> Diverdude: sudo apt-get autoremove
[23:01] <chelz> jonne: eh well flash is buggy and proprietary. helps to avoid it.
[23:01] <jonne> afaik chromium doesn't have all of them
[23:01] <chelz> erUSUL: there is a alpha 64bit driver actually
[23:01] <jonne> chelz, i hate flash, but all video on the web is still encoded into that crap
[23:01] <juanshot> swd
[23:01] <jonne> i usually just dig the vids out of /tmp and play them in totem
[23:01] <chelz> jonne: personally i use firefox for everything but flash, for which i copy/paste the links into chromium
[23:01] <actionParsnip> jonne: try the newer firefox, you can also try renaming your mozilla settings folder and rerun, it may be more stable
[23:01] <erUSUL> chelz: i know but karmic by default installs via nspluginwrapper
[23:02] <chelz> erUSUL: i was just nitpicking about "*all* 64 bit users:
[23:02] <Diverdude> I need GLIBCXX_3.4.9 and GLIBCXX_3.4.11 in order to run program 'ddd'. But When i write sudo apt-get install GLIBCXX_3.4.9 it says package not found. How can i install these packages?

[23:06] <chelz> Diverdude: did you install dd through apt-get?
[23:06] <robertpolson> so they'd be pretty similar?
[23:06] <actionParsnip> robertpolson: logging or confirming a bug for it will get it sorted faster
[23:06] <zach_> where do i locate libdvdread3 ?
[23:06] <chelz> robertpolson: depends on your hardware
[23:06] <Kartagis> what syslog allows log redirecting?
[23:06] <robertpolson> actionParsnip, will do
[23:06] <erUSUL> !info libdvdread3
[23:06] <faultyground> Need a hand with Emerald.  I am using an Emerald theme, but about half the time I boot up it loads gtk instead of emerald.  Have already changed the command in the Compiz Window Decorator settings.  Any ideas?
[23:06] <actionParsnip> zach_: medibuntu repo again
[23:06] <erUSUL> !find libdvdread3
[23:06] <AntiProxy> are there any frontends to mdadm to manage software RAID arrays?
[23:07] <chelz> zach_:  libdvdread4
[23:07] <chelz> zach_:  synaptic or apt-get install  libdvdread4
[23:07] <actionParsnip> faultyground: add an item in the startup items to run: emerald --replace
[23:08] <erUSUL> !find libdvdread4 | zach_

[23:10] <ThunderBird89> can I create a socket to an IP outside of a program?
[23:10] <ThunderBird89> so far I only found references on using sockets in programs
[23:10] <Diverdude> chelz, hmm i was hoping that the required packages was inside libstdc++, but apt-get install also cannot find that package
[23:10] <Diverdude> chelz, are you using ddd also?
[23:11] <actionParsnip> Bookman: http://pasnox.tuxfamily.org/project/xmessgui
[23:11] <chelz> Diverdude: no. but packages that are required for things should be included. pastebin your terminal output please
[23:11] <faultyground> actionParsnip:  Just came back from a reboot, gtk again =/
[23:12] <Bookman> actionParsnip, that seems to be a page with a screenshot.  Nothing more.
[23:12] <actionParsnip> faultyground: could make a bash script to cange it
[23:13] <actionParsnip> Bookman: well it gives a name you can websearch for
[23:13] <chelz> Diverdude: are you sure you're up to date? seems like you might be missing packages
[23:13] <Bookman> actionParsnip, yeah.  It appears as though this MESS stuff is not up to date or mature at all.
[23:14] <ThePirateRedBear> i'm looking for a command that will show me what the cd/dvd drive model on a computer is. does anyone know one?
[23:14] <actionParsnip> Bookman: not something ive used in tiiiiiime
[23:14] <actionParsnip> ThePirateRedBear: sudo lshw -C disk
[23:14] <Diverdude> chelz, this is the output: http://pastebin.com/m7a0d382a
[23:14] <Bookman> actionParsnip, yeah nor I.  I might try under windows.

[23:14] <cordelia> hi all, I have two drives one small drive with ubuntu recently installed, the drive jumper are on slave, and a second drive jumpers on master with kubuntu I want to exchange the ubuntu drive for a larger one and so the kubuntu drive has to habe grub how do I make sure my drive will boot?
[23:14] <faultyground> actionParsnip: Actually, looking at it, the emerald addition I made to the startup list is gone =/  As far as scripting goes, I'm at a loss, I just getting the hang of *nix
[23:15] <CoOlGhOsT> actionParsnip: the nvidia ppa worked like a charm.. thanks again!
[23:15] <actionParsnip> CoOlGhOsT: makes life easier than messing with the run file
[23:15] <CoOlGhOsT> actionParsnip: indeed!
[23:15] <Acer_> hello, I have the 9.10 netbook remix iso and according to the official ubuntu documentation, usb-creator.exe is missing... so, can I use http://www.pendrivelinux.com/downloads/u910/USB-Installer-for-Ubuntu-v0.2.exe or is it only good for the desktop iso?
[23:15] <Diverdude> chelz, i think i up to date...but i am not sure
[23:16] <Travis-42> how do I get partimage after upgrading to ubuntu 9.10 64-bit? I can't find it in the repository
[23:16] <robertpolson> for anyone interested, i reported the bug
[23:16] <Bookman> actionParsnip, I found this and it was enough for me to give up in Linux. http://journalxtra.com/2009/11/how-to-install-sdlmame-and-sdlmess-onto-ubuntu/
[23:16] <robertpolson> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-bots/+bug/518223
[23:16] <actionParsnip> faultyground: it'll be something like this: http://pastebin.com/d40fd14ddY
[23:16] <CoOlGhOsT> trism: as for the connection, it seems that "available for all users" did the trick, so thanks to you as well :-)
[23:17] <actionParsnip> faultyground: you will need to: chmod +x       the file so it is marked as executable
[23:17] <AntiProxy> chelz, system-config-lvm shows the raw partitions and block devices (/dev/sda1, 2, 3 and /dev/sdb1, 2, 3) even though they're already paired in RAID1 setup and my root FS is mounted on /dev/md1
[23:17] <trism> CoOlGhOsT: you're welcome, glad it worked
[23:17] <Diverdude> chelz, what do you think=
[23:17] <Ujjain> How do I change network settings in Ubuntu?
[23:17] <chelz> AntiProxy: not sure. people i know use the terminal stuff. gui tools for this is all quite new. you could try reporting a bug
[23:18] <Niku_baiviku> erUsul
[23:18] <AntiProxy> chelz, i've setup the whole thing on the CLI.. just thought the GUI might show a thing or two that i didn't notice before :)
[23:18] <erUSUL> Niku_baiviku: yes?
[23:19] <AntiProxy> been messing about with gsmartmoncontrol for a little while.. and i discovered quite a few things i didn't know using smartctl alone :)
[23:19] <chelz> Diverdude: sudo apt-get autoremove
[23:19] <blakkheim> use aptitude instead of apt-get and you won't have that problem
[23:19] <Diverdude> chelz, yeah i did that already
[23:20] <Diverdude> chelz, but what about those missing packages?
[23:20] <faultyground> actionParsnip:  I'm afraid that pastebin link is a 404 =(  have a repost handy?
[23:21] <actionParsnip> faultyground: http://pastie.org/812840
[23:22] <chelz> Diverdude: yeah i'm hunting around
[23:22] <faultyground> actionParsnip: That one worked, I'll give this a shot then, thanks again!
[23:22] <chelz> Diverdude: are you on 9.10?

[23:23] <arand> How do you write _only_ the mbr in grub2?
[23:23] <ardchoille> Lance__: you should do that from the network tab and now you should change your password
[23:24] <LordVorp> I installed ubuntu server with no graphics.  is there a "magic package" that will install the gnome environment for me, complete with ubuntu goodness/customizations?
[23:24] <Ujjain> How do I change networksettings in ifconfig without setup and network-scripts/eth0?
[23:24] <LordVorp> Ujjain: like, "live" settings?

[23:29] <VCoolio> why does gedit use 100% cpu? renaming ~/.gnome2/gedit didn't help, neither did reinstall; changing themes also no solution; output in terminal nothing disturbing I think
[23:29]  * Niku_baiviku would like to thank erUsul, and give him his respect

[23:35] <eigma> any particular gotchas for a hardy->karmic dist-upgrade?
[23:36] <daftykins> eigma: well you can't do two jumps in one, you have to go to jaunty first

[23:38] <hipe> anyone have any favorite how-tos for making ssh public/private keys? i've done it a couple times as a user, but now i'm setting it up for the first time on a server
[23:38] <daftykins> eigma: there definitely seems to be much heartbreak over upgrades to Karmic so that could be a good plan
[23:38] <iflema> eigma well just dist upgrade...
[23:38] <faultyground> actionParsnip: Thanks for your assistance.  That got it working, and I feel like I've learned a bit about scripting, and just a bit more of the terminal, which is really what I've been trying to do, is learn more about using *nix
[23:38] <Lance__> thank you BlueKaj
[23:39] <semitones> BlueKaj: what is the difference between network manager and wicd?
[23:39] <Diverdude> chelz, does it give you anything?
[23:40] <blakkheim> semitones: one is bad, one is good
[23:40] <chelz> Diverdude: i've heard libc issues are really hard to deal with, but yeah that does help
[23:40] <ivor_> ok
[23:40] <skrzypnik> hi all
[23:40] <semitones> blakkheim: bad and good in which respects? I recently switched to wicd from nm, so I'm trying to find out what the difference is
[23:40] <ivor_> aha
[23:41] <soreau> eigma: IMHO, you should save your time and just install karmic fresh instead of upgrading. No telling what problems may arise. You would have to upgrade from hardy->intrepid->jaunty->karmic
[23:41] <BluesKaj> semitones, wicd is an optional network manager, which works better on some setups , it's more immune to update probs than the default network manger
[23:41] <chelz> Diverdude: are you on 32 or 64bit?
[23:41] <semitones> BluesKaj: yikes, well I hope I don't have any serious problems
[23:42] <soreau> eigma: Better yet, if you can wait a couple months for the Lucid release, grab a live image of that and install it
[23:42] <Diverdude> chelz, 32 bit
[23:42] <chelz> Diverdude: install this: http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/gcc-3.3/libstdc++5_3.3.6-17ubuntu1_i386.deb
[23:42] <iflema> eigma if you use KDE 3.x could be a prob if not Sytem / Administration / Software Sources on the updates tab change the release upgrade to normal releases.
[23:42] <Diverdude> chelz, i see
[23:42] <chelz> Diverdude: then try that matlab thing
[23:43] <Diverdude> chelz, oki done
[23:44] <slyco> hi
[23:44] <BluesKaj> semitones, well if you do have probs then wicd is agood alternative.my experience  with the default network manager wasn't very good ..it quit working after 24 hrs.
[23:44] <Diverdude> chelz, same error :(
[23:44] <Diverdude> chelz, ddd: /appl/matlabr2008b/sys/os/glnx86/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.11' not found (required by ddd)
[23:44] <Diverdude> chelz, and same with 4.9
[23:44] <semitones> BluesKaj: hmm, one of my comptuers has wifi trouble, and can't connect at all -- do you think switching to wicd has a chance of fixing that?
[23:45] <pea[PC]> is anyone using xmarks on chrome on ubuntu?
[23:45] <slyco> does mingw32 automaticly chain on to gcc compiler?
[23:45] <eigma> I'm going to start fresh with karmic.. this is a (mostly) headless server system btw
[23:45] <BluesKaj> semitones, perhaps, which wifi chip is it using ?
[23:46] <semitones> prism54, I do believe. It's a linksys usb adapter.
[23:47] <Diverdude> chelz, bizarre :(
[23:48] <chelz> Diverdude: pastebin: ls -la /appl/matlabr2008b/sys/os/glnx86/libstdc++.so.6

[23:49] <chelz> Diverdude: also:   ls -la /appl/matlabr2008b/sys/os/glnx86/libstdc++.so.6.0.8
[23:49] <BluesKaj> semitones, usb adpters are suffering from upgrading neglect in the latest ubuntus , i have a belkin which used to work on both network manager and wicd , now after upgrading to karmic , I can't get it to work at all

[23:55] <Sabbel> but he is not
[23:55] <Sabbel> can i logged off a user via root?

[23:55] <Diverdude> chelz, ok

[23:56] <semitones> BluesKaj: dang that sucks! I hope you find out how to fix it
[23:57] <trism> BluesKaj: if it worked previously with jaunty, I don't really see any reason it shouldn't work in karmic, but I haven't had to use ndiswrapper since karmic, so I don't really know
