| switchgirl | !tor | 00:00 |
| ubottu | Many Ubuntu IRC channels prohibit access from !proxies such as TOR due to a high level of abuse. You can however obtain a hostmask cloak: see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks | 00:00 |
| chelz | Diverdude: please pastebin it | 00:00 |

| ZykoticK9 | ton, mencoder can certainly do it | 00:10 |
| KenBW2 | chelz: the "Best answer" answer? | 00:10 |
| iflema | ton maybe kino | 00:10 |
| ton | ZykoticK9 mencoder? I was using openmovie editor, but it's really really lame =_= | 00:10 |
| chelz | Diverdude: i don't, just a big fan. i might someday. btw officially offtopic talk has to be in #ubuntu-offtopic. i'm there if you have anything offtopic to discuss. | 00:11 |
| ton | I google | 00:11 |

| jschall | Why is flash completely unreliable in 64-bit ubuntu? Sometimes it stops working and I have to completely restart firefox. Sometimes it plays video, but none of the buttons work (ie fullscreen, play pause etc.) Anyone else notice this? How can it be corrected? | 00:11 |
| ton | ZykoticK9 so do you or not actually KNOW it can >:D | 00:12 |
| KenBW2 | jschall: karmic? | 00:12 |
| iflema | jschall remove all other install versions.. if any, make a folder /home/[username]/.mozilla/plugings and extract the following file into it... then (re)start firefox... | 00:12 |

| ZykoticK9 | ton, i've done it before | 00:12 |
| KenBW2 | jschall: the non-clickiness is a known issue | 00:12 |
| KenBW2 | jschall: the issue doesnt happen in Chrome/ium | 00:13 |
| chelz | KenBW2: the only one under "Best answers " | 00:13 |
| ZykoticK9 | jschall, the button issue can be fixed by following http://paste.ubuntu.com/370590/ -- personally i've switched to Chrome under 64bit and i'm much happier | 00:13 |
| ton | ZykoticK9, thanks much friend, I'll go for it :D | 00:13 |

| KenBW2 | ZykoticK9: i have | 00:23 |
| KenBW2 | ZykoticK9: perhaps it's because i use Opera rather than FF? | 00:23 |

| daftykins | tanderson: np, that was 32-bit 9.10 karmic livecd btw | 00:43 |
| Dusty1 | no installed via cd fxhp | 00:43 |
| tanderson | daftykins: it's actually a little daft to not have sshd on a livecd :/ | 00:44 |
| CooPs89 | I just compiled pureftp-d but the make install didn't put a startup script in init.d, what to do? (yes I had to compile it) | 00:44 |
| Fraxtil | I got the message "init: bootchart main process (478) terminated with status 2" | 00:44 |
| promet1 | idleone, yes. i was very careful about allowing it to fully charge before doing any battery only operation | 00:44 |
| Dusty1 | if you want ic an explain the situation better on a private message | 00:44 |
| g1er | does the new grub still have a user editable boot file? | 00:44 |
| Dusty1 | if you want ic an explain the situation better on a private message it is hard for me to keep up with all the chat in here and my baby lol | 00:44 |
| daftykins | tanderson: i guess it's too easy a target for pranks - known user and no pass etc | 00:44 |
| promet1 | as i always do with new li-ion batteries | 00:44 |
| IdleOne | promet1: that was my only guess, sorry can't help more. | 00:44 |
| fxhp | dusty1 first impression would be that grub is causing the issue | 00:44 |
| scorch__ | Does anyone know if Runes of MAgic runs ok on Virtualbox? | 00:44 |
| promet1 | i also disabled acpi, but n love there either | 00:44 |
| daftykins | scorch__: VM'ing is not the way to play games if that's what you're planning | 00:45 |
| scorch__ | Does anyone know if Runes of MAgic runs ok on Virtualbox or a moded version of wine that was used for Subspace? | 00:45 |
| promet1 | that's okay idleone, i really appreciate the response nonetheless | 00:45 |
| cure_2323 | could anyone suggest a good music player for ubuntu that i can also install on windows ? | 00:45 |

| hipe | iflema: no problem for some reason `which add-apt-repository` turns up empty but i edited my /etc/apt/sources.list manually and it appears to have worked. (not sure if i installed git-core from the ppa or not but whatevs git is working) | 00:46 |
| scorch__ | daftykins: ok have u heard of a game called supsapce? | 00:46 |

| promet1 | it is THE media player | 00:46 |
| promet1 | if they could only get the skins to work right | 00:47 |
| promet1 | they would take over the world | 00:47 |
| Dr_Willis | scorch__: I was thinking ive seen it done some how. but I forget where i even saw it at. Ive rarely needed to use an older wine. | 00:47 |
| scorch__ | daftykins: i had to mod my wine version to play a game called supspace..... i am wondering if the modded version will run other progrmas | 00:47 |
| Dusty1 | im off guys baby is being bad | 00:47 |

You create an apache server on one of your machines, copy the contents of the CD into your apache server, and then use the mini.iso to boot your machine (choosing your apache server as the repo), but you will still need a CD drive/USB boot. | 01:34 |

| airtonix | lifesengine, why are you trying to extract brushes to the global folder ? just use the one under your home folder | 01:50 |
| nixjr | what is the "load average" in top, my first assumption was a percentage, however ive seen it go over 1.00 so that cant be correct | 01:50 |
| Dr_Willis | nixjr: dual core. :)? | 01:50 |
| conner_ | man I have no idea as to what you guys are even talking about, my problem seems simple lol | 01:51 |
| lifesengine | my home folder is virtually empty | 01:51 |
| chelz | SuperDefenderX: you might be into Arch linux, or linux from scratch. or suckless | 01:51 |

| jumpnmustang | oh its normal? | 01:53 |
| Dr_Willis | conner_: odd.. try from the command line 'sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get upgrade' then try installing skype again. | 01:53 |
| lostinspace_46 | I have 2 new repos that are listed in my sources.list file. They are also visible in System/Administration/Software Sources/Other Software. However, they are not visible under the Origins tab in Synaptic. Why would this be? And how would I download from them if Synaptic doesn't see them? | 01:53 |

| lifesengine | you guys are incredibly helpful. Thanks! | 01:53 |

| terminhell | chown us ~/base -r | 01:55 |
| Guest42232 | It works on a windows box beside me | 01:55 |
| Guest42232 | could it only be because its not windows?? | 01:55 |
| FoolishOwl | nixjr, but load average means how many processes are running at a given instant, on average. Normally, with a single user logged on on a desktop, it's less than 1.00. | 01:55 |
| Xial | Guest42232: I'm on a Windows box, and nothing loads. | 01:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest42232: send them an email complaining they dont work on linux then | 01:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest42232: it could also be its Canadian only for some of us... | 01:55 |
| conner_ | Hey Dr. Willis, I still got the same error | 01:55 |
| conner_ | but I did run the apt commands | 01:55 |
| SecondInfinity | How does the inode size of a filesystem affect it? I want to format a partition with an inode size of 128 (bytes?) and it is currently 256. I know I will have to reformat it and that 256 is the standard inode size for ext4, but what is the difference in application | 01:56 |
| chelz | Guest42232: not working here. chromium with flash 10 | 01:56 |
| nixjr | FoolishOwl, ah my mistake, i misread your last message as "processors" not processes | 01:56 |
| conner_ | also this is th ename of the file skype-ubuntu-intrepid_2.1.0.81-1_i386.deb | 01:56 |

| jolaren | If I don't type "chclient eth0" after boot I don't get internet.. how do I get this to autoboot? | 01:56 |
| brianfreud | Anyone have any ideas? I have a white border around the entire desktop; tried changing the background and other various things, nothing seems to get rid of it. It can be overlaid however, so it's definitely something being drawn, not a monitor issue - the mouse cursor can "block" a part of it when it's over the border. | 01:56 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest42232: change the firefox useragent to show its IE perhaps. | 01:56 |
| Guest42232 | I tried it on Fedora too and no lucj | 01:56 |
| Guest42232 | luck | 01:56 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest42232: or is it working in FF on windows? | 01:56 |
| ZykoticK9 | Guest42232, i'm in Canada - and tried in Firefox & Chrome they both failed | 01:57 |
| airtonix | Guest42232, it is flash...version 10...probably the ultra beta version...what version flash you have on your windows machine ? | 01:57 |
| Guest42232 | Yes on firefox | 01:57 |
| Guest42232 | 10 I believe | 01:57 |

| SecondInfinity | Dr_Willis: The program I use (the only one I have tried that seems to work reliably) to read ext2 and ext3 partitions in windows requires that the inode size of a partition be 128 or less to be readable. When 8.10 was out the boot cd made the inode size 128 by default | 02:01 |
| Guest42232 | well its cbc its a reputable source | 02:01 |
| Dr_Willis | SecondInfinity: what program is that anyway? | 02:01 |
| Guest42232 | I could complain, but they probably wont pay attention | 02:01 |
| chelz | SecondInfinity: you could use a shared ntfs to share data between linux and windows. or fat32 | 02:01 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest42232: if you dont complain they defainatly wont | 02:01 |
| chelz | Guest42232: every bit helps | 02:01 |

| Dr_Willis | Im not sure how much 'codecs' affect flash... | 02:02 |
| SecondInfinity | You can buy some codecs from fluendo I think | 02:02 |
| SecondInfinity | They arent cheap but it is better than nothing | 02:02 |

| Izinucs | Most flash problems arise when you install ubuntu-restricted-extras *and* flashplugin-non free.. *remove the flashplugin-non free* and it should work much better ... <---- Dr_Willis Guest42232 | 02:04 |
| SecondInfinity | I doubt that HTML 5 will really replace flash completely as most functionality that is flashlike requires javascript | 02:04 |
| trism | Izinucs: ubuntu-restricted-extras installs flashplugin-nonfree | 02:04 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm.. ubuntu-restricted-extras just pulls in flashplugin-nonfree i thought. | 02:04 |
| SecondInfinity | oh, and the whole fuss about whether to use ogg codec or h.264 for video | 02:04 |
| Guest42232 | lol...how do I remove it...I am new to linux | 02:04 |
| * Dr_Willis votes for ogg. | 02:05 | |
| Craig_Dem | I use h.264 | 02:05 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest42232: i doubt if it will change anything. | 02:05 |
| ujkanovic | some one her | 02:05 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest42232: flash works at other sites right? | 02:05 |
| rick_ | h.264 is more supported for portable devices | 02:05 |
| Guest42232 | yes | 02:05 |
| NotTooSmart | why does my speed in hdparm -tT /dev/sda drop from 66mb sec to around 21 mb/s after system is online for a few days? | 02:05 |
| Craig_Dem | I love free software and stuff, but my iPod dosen't support ogg. | 02:05 |

| ubottu | NotTooSmart: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. | 02:05 |
| Izinucs | trism: that's really strange.. because it's worked for me that way for the last several years.. I think the restricted extras installs a different version or adobe's version.. not the nonfree version.. | 02:05 |
| Guest42232 | Maybe its something got to do with a live stream? | 02:05 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest42232: not a flash issue then would be my guess | 02:05 |
| ujkanovic | how can i scan my runing proceses to find out if i am infected froma virus or a malware | 02:06 |
| lostinspace_46 | I have 2 new repos that are listed in my sources.list file. They are also visible in System/Administration/Software Sources/Other Software.

| Dr_Willis | Guest42232: unless its got some flash linux vs flash windows duifferances | 02:06 |
| chelz | ujkanovic: clamav | 02:06 |
| SecondInfinity | Supposedly h.264 is of higher quality than ogg and if everything was streamed in ogg it would require way too much bandwidth. The iPods should support ogg but they never will because everything on an apple device has to be controlled by apple | 02:06 |
| trism | Izinucs: no, it installs the exact same version (although it will also accept adobe-flashplugin if you have previously installed that before installing ubuntu-restricted-extras, but you would have had to do it manually) | 02:06 |
| chelz | !av | ujkanovic | 02:06 |
| ubottu | ujkanovic: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 02:06 |
| Craig_Dem | YouTube has a html5 trial at http://youtube.com/html5 if you are having problems. Don't think firefox supports it though. | 02:06 |
| ujkanovic | clamav is a antivirus but its not scaning proceses thats runs on the ubuntu | 02:06 |
| Dr_Willis | Craig_Dem: the latest firefox does. or at least it did.. it seems a little flakey. | 02:07 |
| Guest42232 | WOuld another browser make a differece | 02:07 |
| Guest42232 | Actualy I NM I tried that | 02:07 |
| trism | yeah, the youtube trial won't work until it supports H.264, which doesn't seem likely any time soon because of license issues (if it does work, it is because the video tag has the ability to fall back on flash if you configure it correctly) | 02:07 |
| SecondInfinity | Firefox has builtin ogg for html5 I believe | 02:08 |

| Dr_Willis | Guest42232: good Luck with that.. your cpu will be so overloaded. it will be scary | 02:16 |
| Will123456 | chelz: didn't work anyway :P | 02:16 |
| mdg2 | Guest42232: like 133 Mhz? | 02:16 |

| Guest42232 | I heard there were linux versions that can run on old pc's | 02:16 |
| subspider | chelz, when installinf the intallation ask you for the folder where libs are stored and i had to chage to usr/lib/ | 02:17 |
| Will123456 | chelz: oh wow, excellent, thanks :) that's great news. i think i might do that | 02:17 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest42232: theres old.. then theres OLD.... | 02:17 |
| FoolishOwl | The package management system -- apt-get and so forth -- is really good about maintaining the integrity of packages, i.e., applications and their supporting files. | 02:17 |

| subspider | usr/local/lib | 02:17 |
| mdg2 | Guest42232: you have to have a GUI or can you go CLI? | 02:18 |
| Guest42232 | that can work on a old pc | 02:18 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest42232: depends on your needs. | 02:18 |

| Guest42232 | Browse the internet, youtube | 02:18 |
| SecondInfinity | Guest42232: You heard correctly, many linux distributions can run on very old hardware, making what is thought to be useless hardware quite usable. I had a computer with a 333MHz processor and 64mb of RAM and I could use it as a basic web browsing machine | 02:18 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest42232: flash on a pent I will proberly be so slow as to be impossible. | 02:18 |

| subspider | chelz, it's working great sound and everthing | 02:18 |
| Guest42232 | I see | 02:18 |
| chelz | SecondInfinity: the cost of making use of an older machine vs getting a new one should factor in the cost of power usage too | 02:19 |
| FoolishOwl | IMHO, package management systems and software repositories are the biggest advantage of Debian-based and Red Hat-based Linux distributions over Windows and OS X. | 02:19 |
| Dr_Willis | Pent I + freedos = serial terminal :) | 02:19 |
| Guest42232 | I am just wondering... I dont have a old box setup yet | 02:19 |
| Will123456 | chelz: thanks, i owe you one./ | 02:19 |
| rick_ | what would you use an old pc for a distro that is only CLI for anyways? | 02:19 |
| SecondInfinity | Am I paranoid to have privacy issues with Google Chrome or do I have valid suspicions? | 02:19 |
| chelz | FoolishOwl: almost all major *nix distros have some kind of package manager | 02:19 |
| Guest42232 | I have numerous ones though, without software | 02:19 |
| Dr_Willis | rick_: 'terminal' machine. :) | 02:19 |
| chelz | Will123456: np. keep promoting linux and ubuntu :) | 02:19 |
| xangua | SecondInfinity: use chromium then | 02:19 |
| BlackDalek | how do I import photos with gthumb? Nothing is happening when I click import! | 02:19 |
| Vladimir_ | My laptop has a Blu-ray drive but I've read that currently Ubuntu does not support playing these movies and was wondering whether or not we will see better support for Blu-ray in 10.04 and whether there will be a "push" to be able to view Blu-ray movies. This is, so far, the only obstacle preventing me from using Ubuntu. | 02:19 |
| subspider | chelz do you know why aa 3 is not for linux | 02:19 |
| subspider | ?? | 02:19 |
| Dr_Willis | rick_: ssh in, run htop, just watch the loads.. :) | 02:19 |
| Will123456 | chelz: i've got my middle aged MUM using it :P | 02:19 |
| rick_ | Dr_Willis you lost me | 02:19 |
| chelz | subspider: you'll have to ask them | 02:20 |
| mdg2 | rick_: you can browse the net in text browser, gmail, listen to internet radio | 02:20 |
| airtonix | SecondInfinity, things chrome doesnt have that firefox does (in addon form): 1) save page as png 2) page clipping to local file 3) doesn't allow pages at the uri : file:/// to save to local drive (tiddlywiki) | 02:20 |
| FoolishOwl | chelz, true. I think the deb and rpm systems are the best, though. | 02:20 |
| TDJACR | Is there a way to use whole disk encryption with Ubuntu Netbook? | 02:20 |
| subspider | ok chelz | 02:20 |
| subspider | thaks | 02:20 |
| Dr_Willis | rick_: i have serial terminals - and so forth run serial cable, or use network. and you got a spare console | 02:20 |
| jumpnmustang | Seems it has bad keys, is there an easy way to just update the keys? | 02:20 |
| chelz | SecondInfinity: i don't use chrome over chromium because of privacy concerns | 02:20 |
| cort | help with QGIS and GRASS please | 02:20 |
| chelz | cort: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGIS | 02:20 |
| tobi_ | chelz after reseting X resolution changes to 1440x900, as I already said xorg.conf is set to use 1680x1050 | 02:20 |
| Guest42232 | Oh yes another thing I was wondering...you know how in UBuntu the screen gets dark when you dont use it | 02:20 |
| rick_ | Dr_Willis basically a dumb gui terminal then? | 02:20 |
| iceroot | Guest42232: its the screensaver | 02:21 |
| Dr_Willis | rick_: err.. NO gui at all.. its a 'serial terminal' :) | 02:21 |
| Guest42232 | Well I disabled it | 02:21 |
| cort | chelz have not found the answers there | 02:21 |
| Dr_Willis | rick_: just like you got on the 'console' | 02:21 |
| SecondInfinity | chelz: Yes, that is correct, older machines are often very inefficient in terms of power usage. However, Linux installations generally seem to work better on older hardware, probably because they aren't tied to the advancements in the hardware industry (Intel comes out with new gear, Microsoft makes their OS a little less optimized) | 02:21 |
| SecondInfinity | What is the difference between Chrome and Chromium | 02:21 |
| chelz | cort: what issues are you experiencing | 02:21 |
| Dr_Willis | rick_: there are 'X terminals' also that can do GUI/X but those are a little rare these days | 02:21 |
| sebsebseb | SecondInfinity: Chrome is based on Chromeium. Chromeium is open source, Chrome is closed source | 02:21 |
| iceroot | Guest42232: there is an option in the screensaver menu called energy settings, there is set that dispplay is disabed after 30 minutes | 02:21 |
| chelz | tobi_: do you have intel, nvidia or ati? | 02:21 |
| tobi_ | chelz nvidia gf 7800GT | 02:22 |
| jumpnmustang | I will wait, have to go for a bit thanks for the help provided so far.:-) | 02:22 |
| rick_ | Dr_Willis okay thanks. I don't think I'll ever be doing/needing that type of setup ever. | 02:22 |
| cort | chelz -- unstable version installed and running. can't get grass pluggin to show up in pluggin manager | 02:22 |
| Dr_Willis | rick_: it can come in handy at times | 02:22 |
| chelz | tobi_: do you have nvidia-settings installed? | 02:22 |
| Dr_Willis | rick_: kernel dev's use it all the time i hear. | 02:22 |
| tobi_ | chelz haven't had this problem with 9.10, it started happening on mint 8, of course I am | 02:22 |
| Dr_Willis | The good old days of serial cables, nullmodem cables, and zmodem protocals.. | 02:22 |
| SecondInfinity | sebsebseb: I see. Yeah, closed source is not nice. What operating systems is Chromium available for? | 02:23 |
| rick_ | Dr_Willis i'm far from being a kernel Dev. I'd rather make a stripped down kernel into a car pc or something of the sort. | 02:23 |

| jmp_ | hi to all, do somebody know how to install mysql on ubuntu | 02:23 |
| chelz | tobi_: have nvidia-settings save a new config | 02:23 |
| iceroot | jmp_: sudo apt-get install mysql-server | 02:23 |
| phil-j | hello | 02:23 |
| Dr_Willis | rick_: i used serial cables the other day to transfer stuff to/from my AMIGA. :) | 02:23 |
| Dr_Willis | !mysql | jmp_ | 02:24 |
| ubottu | jmp_: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 02:24 |
| phil-j | Can anyone help me test my VNC server? | 02:24 |
| BlackDalek | gthumb's photo import does not work.. why? | 02:24 |
| cort | chelz: follwed these steps to update libraries but not sure I am doing it right:Set your library search path | 02:24 |
| cort | Note This section was added in an update on 31 Nov 2009 | 02:24 |
| cort | If you want the grass plugin to load in QGIS, you also need to ensure your library path is updated. I do it system wide. First edit /etc/ld.so.conf as root and add this line: | 02:24 |
| cort | Now do: | 02:24 |
| cort | sudo ldconfig | 02:24 |
| FloodBot3 | cort: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 02:24 |
| Dr_Willis | phil-j: fire up a vnc client and try it out? thats the ultimate test. | 02:24 |
| rick_ | Dr_Willis well if you found a usb port on an Amiga i'd wonder how you frankenstien'd that into it!!! | 02:24 |
| chelz | cort: join #qgis-community-team and #qgis | 02:24 |
| === Guest31337 is now known as Freeaqingme | ||
| cort | oops sorry | 02:24 |
| airtonix | rick_, serial cable != usb | 02:24 |
| Dr_Willis | rick_: of course Now i realize that the linux kernel can read/write amiga FS' so i can move the amigas hd to this box copuy stff over. :) | 02:25 |
| tobi_ | chelz I've already did configure it to use 1680x1050, and saved xorg.conf successfully, it just keeps changing to 1440x900 on every boot right before icons on desktop appear | 02:25 |
| rick_ | airtonix yeah real old school serial | 02:25 |
| BlackDalek | On gthumb, I can see the thumbnails from the camera but it is not importing anything at all.. the import button just depresses when I click it but nothing happens. Why? | 02:25 |
| airtonix | rick_, although you might find a funky rs232 to usb dongle around somewhere :) | 02:25 |
| jmp_ | iceroot_ thanks, process is running | 02:26 |
| iceroot | jmp_: great | 02:26 |
| jmp_ | ubottu, thanks too | 02:26 |
| Dr_Willis | I have usb-> serial and usb->parallel | 02:26 |
| chelz | tobi_: well mint is not ubuntu, for the record. you'll have to ask them in #LinuxMint | 02:26 |
| tobi_ | chelz mint channels are dead :P | 02:26 |
| chelz | !mint | tobi_ | 02:26 |
| ubottu | tobi_: There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mintsupport), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) | 02:26 |
| Dr_Willis | phil-j: for vnc over the internet you should be setting up a ssh tunnle. | 02:26 |
| chelz | !mintsupport > tobi_ | 02:26 |
| ubottu | tobi_, please see my private message | 02:26 |
| tobi_ | chelz it might be 185 drivers which are awful at resolutions handling | 02:27 |
| Dr_Willis | 'mint channels are dead' -> good reason to use actual ubuntu. | 02:27 |
| mdg2 | chelz: what was your question | 02:27 |
| rick_ | airtonix I remember when those dongles first came out! | 02:27 |
| SecondInfinity | so has anyone heard any nice features that are supposed to be present in the next Ubuntu release, 10.04? | 02:27 |
| SecondInfinity | I haven't been keeping us | 02:27 |
| SecondInfinity | up* | 02:27 |
| BlackDalek | Also when I plug my camera in I get two import photo dialogue boxes put up - neither of which work. | 02:27 |
| Dr_Willis | SecondInfinity: they change daily. :) but it should be calming down soon i imagine | 02:27 |
| chelz | mdg2: what question? | 02:27 |
| iceroot | SecondInfinity: LTS is the best feautre also use #ubuntu+1 | 02:27 |
| berl69 | francais | 02:28 |
| chelz | !fr | berl69 | 02:28 |
| ubottu | berl69: Ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en francais, merci de rejoindre #ubuntu-fr, ou #ubuntu-qc pour les Quebecois | 02:28 |
| mdg2 | chelz: sorry thought you were asking about mint (mint 8 rocks) | 02:28 |
| SecondInfinity | LTS? Long term support? | 02:28 |
| chelz | mdg2: nope, just stating that this channel isn't for mint support | 02:28 |
| chelz | !lts | SecondInfinity | 02:28 |
| ubottu | SecondInfinity: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Hardy (Hardy Heron 8.04). The next LTS release is scheduled to be !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04) | 02:28 |
| jmp_ | berlo69 , qu'est ce qui ne va pas? | 02:28 |
| phil-j | Dr_Willis: I know VNC sessions should be sent over SSH. I was just wondering if anyone had a spare screen they can throw me to see if I configured my router right | 02:28 |
| SecondInfinity | So, in actuality, what does LTS mean? | 02:29 |
| asdfasdfasdfasdf | hello i would like to encrypt a file how can i do this? | 02:29 |
| iceroot | phil-j: ip, then i will use nmap to check if 5900 is open | 02:29 |
| SecondInfinity | Dont we already get support for Ubuntu? Isnt that more important for businesses or organizations using Ubuntu? | 02:29 |
| iceroot | SecondInfinity: see what ubottu told you about lts | 02:29 |
| phil-j | iceroot: 62.56.123.67 | 02:29 |
| iceroot | SecondInfinity: suport = security fixes | 02:30 |
| rick_ | looks like your screen name is already encrypted, kepp it up | 02:30 |
| ZykoticK9 | SecondInfinity, "support" in this case means updates, etc. | 02:30 |
| Flannel | SecondInfinity: LTS are supported for 3 years (or 5 on the server) instead of the usual 18 months | 02:30 |
| chelz | BlackDalek: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Photos | 02:30 |
| conner_ | any reason why I can't view Youtube videos? | 02:31 |
| iceroot | phil-j: port is filterd | 02:31 |
| chelz | SecondInfinity: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Photos | 02:31 |
| chelz | er | 02:31 |
| chelz | SecondInfinity: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS | 02:31 |
| SecondInfinity | So that means that 10.04 is going to be reliably stable | 02:31 |
| iceroot | phil-j: so the firewall/router is blocking it | 02:31 |
| asdfasdfasdfasdf | hmm better questions if i encrypt something with kgpg which are the chances of someone accessing that file? | 02:31 |
| chelz | SecondInfinity: yes. for people that want a longer upgrade cycle | 02:31 |
| asdfasdfasdfasdf | say i use a long password with numbers symbols capital letters | 02:31 |
| Dr_Willis | conner_: try the google chrome browser (or the latest firefox) and the html5 'testing' feature. :) been playing with that all week | 02:31 |
| jmp_ | iceroot, then how to launch it, | 02:31 |
| SecondInfinity | I dont mind the 18 month upgrade cycle but I guess for businesses or something it would be great | 02:32 |
| chelz | !encrypted | asdfasdfasdfasdf | 02:32 |
| ubottu | asdfasdfasdfasdf: For information on setting up encrypted private directories (8.10+) see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory | 02:32 |
| conner_ | okay | 02:32 |
| iceroot | asdfasdfasdfasdf: that its not possible to crack it within a human life-time | 02:32 |

| rick_ | Yixter caffiene! | 02:32 |
| Dougdoug4 | Yixter: #ubuntu-offtopic | 02:32 |
| Flannel | SecondInfinity: instead of upgrading every six months, you get to upgrade every two years. It's a pretty nice benefit of LTS. | 02:32 |

| jmp_ | iceroot, I want to create data base using mysql queries | 02:33 |
| airtonix | asdfasdfasdfasdf, gpg can do single files | 02:33 |
| SecondInfinity | I kind of like having new features every 6 months | 02:33 |
| chelz | !freedom | Yixter | 02:34 |
| phil-j | iceroot: My VNC server is on port 5500 | 02:34 |
| ubottu | Yixter: freedom is important. Ubuntu is as free as we can make it, which means mostly free software. See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/licensing | 02:34 |
| Flannel | SecondInfinity: Then you'll likely choose to stick with the regular six month upgrade cycle | 02:34 |
| chelz | !av > Yixter | 02:34 |
| asdfasdfasdfasdf | airtonix, good can it be cracked in human life time? | 02:34 |
| ubottu | Yixter, please see my private message | 02:34 |
| Yixter | good point, but besides that issue, what actaul advantage? | 02:34 |
| SecondInfinity | GnuPG is good for encrypting files, as well as email using enigmail+thunderbird or evolution | 02:34 |
| airtonix | asdfasdfasdfasdf, install seahorse and gpg, then you can right click on a file in nautilus and select encrypt | 02:34 |
| chelz | !truecrypt | asdfasdfasdfasdf | 02:34 |
| ubottu | asdfasdfasdfasdf: Truecypt is a free open-source on-the-fly disk encryption software. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TruecryptHiddenVolume | 02:34 |
| Yixter | i mean, as far as im concerned i got windows free with my computer | 02:34 |
| SecondInfinity | Why would someone prefer a longer release cycle, the hassle of setting the system up? | 02:35 |
| Ana1 | Hello | 02:35 |
| airtonix | asdfasdfasdfasdf, depends on the encryption strength you use | 02:35 |
| BlackDalek | gthumb's import photos function is NOT working. NOTHING is happening when I click import. | 02:35 |

| dooglus | when I boot from livecd, eth0 exists. when I boot from hdd, it doesn't. help? | 02:42 |
| asdfasdfasdfasdf | so its probably the same app you guys tell me here, just instead of typing apt-get install i type yum install ^^ | 02:42 |
| airtonix | asdfasdfasdfasdf, since seahorse and gnupg are installed by default on ubuntu 9.10, you just need to install seahorse-plugins to get the right click > encrypt entry. : http://www.walkingrandomly.com/?p=1842 | 02:42 |

| airtonix | asdfasdfasdfasdf, also, revelation password manager has a nice strong password generator | 02:42 |
| nixjr | Is 1 hour to convert an avi file to dvd video format, an unreasonably long length of time? | 02:43 |
| ZykoticK9 | nixjr, or longer | 02:44 |
| rick_ | is there a way to use apt-get check to check all the installed programs to make sure they have all the dependencies or do you have to do it one by one? | 02:44 |
| airtonix | asdfasdfasdfasdf, after installing seahorse-plugins... i think you need to either kill nautilus and restart it or logout to restart X | 02:44 |
| kgs | I am interested in scaling my CPU frequencies while running on battery, but my system reports two CPUs (0 and 1). Is it necessary to set the desired frequency on both? I am using the panel applet for this. | 02:44 |
| Flannel | rick_: If they're installed (and not broken), then they've got all their dependencies. So, 'sudo apt-get upgrade' should tell you if you've got broken packages | 02:45 |
| chelz | kgs: CPU Frequency Scaling Monitor 2.24.1 | 02:45 |
| rick_ | kgs if it's a dual core processor they should scale together automatically | 02:45 |
| chelz | rick_: apt does that automatically, as long as all the packages you've installed are through apt | 02:45 |
| kgs | chelz, What do you mean? | 02:45 |
| IronRoses | giving ubuntu a go | 02:46 |
| chelz | kgs: you can google that and find out what it is and add it to your ubuntu | 02:46 |

| nixjr | ZykoticK9, just did my first conversion and it took 55mins, do you believe thats satisfactory? | 02:46 |
| IronRoses | ok, so i goit ATI drivers working (the offical drivers from the ati site instead of the crap that ubuntu gives you) and got crossover and steam running just fine too | 02:46 |
| chelz | nixjr: i hear handbrake is good | 02:46 |
| felipecnn | somebody have any dificult to install the dbdesigner in ubuntu 9.04? | 02:46 |
| kgs | rick_, It is not a dual core. It is an Intel Atom. I think it is a "virtual" dual core. Hyperthreading and whatnot. | 02:46 |
| airtonix | chelz, if you read what kgs just typed, you will see that he/she is already using that | 02:46 |
| ZykoticK9 | nixjr, converting to DVD MPEG is time consuming - depends on the CPU being used - it's cerainly resonable | 02:46 |

| IronRoses | my only pro0blem is with crossover and banshee. Crossover steals the sound module from every other applicationl is there a fix for this anywhere? | 02:47 |
| felipecnn | because mine appears starting DBDesigner... but nothing happens | 02:47 |
| chelz | airtonix: ah didn't see that | 02:47 |
| kgs | chelz, I already have the required software packages. They were included by default. | 02:47 |
| chelz | kgs: yes you have to set it in both | 02:47 |
| Ana1 | is someone going to explain me what happend between the upgrade and my other >OS? and how can I get it back? | 02:47 |
| VaultDweller | heey | 02:47 |
| rick_ | kgs IIFC the atom processor does have a dual core variant, so yo should be fine with whatever scaling program you find | 02:47 |
| VaultDweller | I need help | 02:47 |
| kgs | I see. | 02:47 |
| airtonix | kgs, this is something im interested in also (i have a hp mini 311-1018tu).... but i dont think the applet is the way to go. | 02:47 |
| VaultDweller | I need to identify the brand and model of my cousin's ethernet adapter for Windows 7. | 02:47 |

| VaultDweller | :P | 02:48 |
| airtonix | VaultDweller, lspci | 02:48 |
| Dr_Willis | VaultDweller: check 'lspci' output for starters | 02:48 |
| kgs | airtonix, what do you see wrong with the applet? | 02:48 |
| VaultDweller | ok | 02:48 |
| chelz | IronRoses: could be an alsa/oss issue | 02:48 |
| VaultDweller | thanks | 02:48 |
| Dr_Willis | VaultDweller: then thers proberly some oher tools as well. but yiou mean to say that Win7 dident auto-matically see it? | 02:48 |
| knoppies | I have ubuntu 9.10 server install with the desktop installed. I have an FX5200 and the nvidia drivers installed. The resolution used to be something above 1024x768 but after I restarted it, it has reset to 640x480 and I can't get it any higher. got any suggestions? | 02:48 |
| airtonix | kgs, mainly that the applet expects to use /proc/acpi/* and there isn't much there for us to use | 02:48 |
| rick_ | kgs i have ubuntu running on my laptop with an amd dual core processor and setting the speed on one core also automatically sets the speed on the other core at the same time | 02:48 |

| airtonix | rick_, ... | 02:50 |
| b0w | Hello !!! how can see what type of sound card i got??? | 02:51 |
| knoppies | EastDallas, I did that in SSH and nothing happened. let me go have a look at the machine. | 02:51 |
| ZykoticK9 | switch10_, i think you'd need to setup NFS/Samba/SSHFS to accomplish what you want | 02:51 |
| switch10_ | bow: lshw | 02:51 |
| airtonix | b0w, you c an use "lspci" in the terminal | 02:51 |
| Nahsei | b0w: lspci -v (i think) and you see the part that says audio... | 02:51 |
| switch10_ | ZykoticK9: thanks | 02:51 |
| DilTheKosher | How do I login on irc? | 02:52 |
| EastDallas | knoppies: it won't really look like it does anything | 02:52 |
| ZykoticK9 | b0w, "lspci | grep -i audio" might be a little easier to sort through | 02:52 |
| knoppies | EastDallas, ok, thanks. its restarting now | 02:52 |
| EastDallas | knoppies: it will just return you to a prompt | 02:52 |
| sero | hi | 02:52 |
| knoppies | EastDallas, and then how would I load the desktop? | 02:52 |
| mdg2 | switch10_: I've heard good reviews of mediatomb | 02:52 |
| b0w | thanks ZykoticK9 | 02:53 |
| b0w | that did the work! :) | 02:53 |
| switch10_ | mdg2: is that some kind of file sharing client? | 02:53 |
| sero | i installed the radeon driver from the xorg-edgers ppa, but now i want to go back and install xorg 7.4 and then the ati driver | 02:53 |
| rick_ | bow if you want to find out what sound card you have and your used to windows, open up your "ubuntu software center" and search for "device manager". install that and it's basically the counterpart to windows device manager | 02:53 |
| kgs | airtonix, can you tell me more about this /proc/acpi business? | 02:53 |
| mdg2 | switch10_: its for mediastreaming | 02:53 |
| sero | the problem is: i can't install Xorg 7.4 though aptitude | 02:53 |
| semitones | heyo -- I have a problem with wicd -- sometimes, if I leave the computer idle and come back, wicd can't find any networks, and the only way I could fix it was to restart | 02:53 |

| allowoverride | quick question - i just installed a new ubuntu server with 3 nic cards. im trying to figure out why eth0/1/2 will not ping gw. resolv.conf is good, /etc/hosts is good, and /etc/network/interfaces is good, set to dhcp. is this typical of ubuntu-server ? to not allow ping gw? | 02:54 |
| jordy240 | hi would halo 2 for pc work on ubuntu via wine? | 02:54 |
| airtonix | kgs, last night i tried looking for info about getting temp readouts... and controlling fan speeds... i first tried using lm-sensors but it returned nothing and there seems to be nothing relevant in the /proc/acpi directories | 02:55 |
| Nahsei | i tried to add myself to audio group, reinstall pulseaudio, modprobe... well, many things... nothing worked | 02:55 |
| airtonix | kgs, have a look in your /proc/acpi directories, you should see some files there which can give data when you use cat on them. | 02:55 |
| ZykoticK9 | jordy240, not looking good http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=8117&iTestingId=12382 | 02:55 |
| hexmare | anyone having issues with karmic and nvidia graphics cards having low res? | 02:56 |
| dandaman1 | i have a problem that needs solving.... | 02:56 |
| allowoverride | i took out the 2 other cards, and not familiar to remove their physical configs, and im using the on-board nic at present. 1. i set interfaces to eth1 now, since ifconfig said no card there for eth0, but did when i put ethcable into on-board card. little confused here. someone help me with residual configs or with adding on-board nic? | 02:56 |
| airtonix | hexmare, nope! :) | 02:56 |
| jordy240 | thank you ZykoticK9 | 02:56 |
| Viking667 | meh. I'm out of here. I can't seem to find the recalcitrant soundfile, nor why it's playing only on one speaker. | 02:56 |
| hexmare | airtronix :> what cards are you using? | 02:56 |
| allowoverride | right now im have error on cmdline tty0 stating,,, failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socke: no such file or dir | 02:57 |
| rick_ | hexmare good luck, nvidia and linux is a black art sometimes | 02:57 |
| dandaman1 | so i have this netbook with ubuntu netbook remix and a desktop with ubuntu 9.10. I'm laying on my couch with my netbook and i want to play some music on my speakers connected to my desktop(my desktop uses rhythmbox to play music). is there any software that can allow me to do this if im on the same LAN network? | 02:57 |
| knoppies | EastDallas, it worked. Thanks. | 02:57 |
| allowoverride | how to reinstall onboard nic drivers? i guess is where i should start | 02:57 |
| hexmare | Rick > I am finding that out. Laptop fires off no issue. Desktop , with 2 8800 gts, no go | 02:57 |
| allowoverride | anyone good? | 02:57 |
| airtonix | !anyone > allowoverride | 02:58 |
| ubottu | allowoverride, please see my private message | 02:58 |
| allowoverride | ubble to connect to system bus | 02:58 |
| allowoverride | oh ok airtonix thanks | 02:58 |
| Dr_Willis | dandaman1: thats doable with pulse audio and the right setup | 02:58 |
| rick_ | hexmare idk about the desktops, usually you have better luck with regular nvidia graphics cards, but laptops (like mine) usually customize the nvidia hardware somewhat and makes supporting them in linux even harder | 02:58 |
| === turtle_ is now known as tomatoes7 | ||
| ZykoticK9 | dandaman1, setup an NFS/Samba/SSHFS share on your desktop, then it will be like the files are on the netbook and you can use any player you want | 02:58 |
| dandaman1 | Dr_Willis: what do you mean the right setup? | 02:58 |
| airtonix | hexmare, on my desktop i have a 8800gts 512mb, and on my netbook i have an Ion 256mb | 02:58 |
| allowoverride | airtonix: can you help our not | 02:59 |
| allowoverride | i can provide info easily | 02:59 |
| ranjan | my ubuntu media players are not audibles,,,,,,,through my laptop speakers but are audible with my headphones....my laptop speaker is very much fine (i checked it) ..any body suggest me the solution for it............ | 02:59 |
| dandaman1 | ZykoticK9: but then i will only be able to play music on my netbook speakers if im just using the files | 02:59 |
| Dr_Willis | dandaman1: set up the pulse audio settings properly on each box. You can then tell pc1 to putput sound to pc2 | 02:59 |
| Dr_Willis | just install | 02:59 |
| Dr_Willis | │ | paprefs and pavucontrol, set auth off in paprefs, then use the pulse gnome applet to set default pulse server to the server | 02:59 |
| hexmare | Airtronix, running 2 8800gt on my desktop , and will only do 640x480 | 02:59 |
| airtonix | allowoverride, since nic drivers are part of the kernel, you can start by trying to use a previous version of the kernel (if you still have them listed in your grub menu) | 02:59 |
| allowoverride | I have an issue - i can not ping gw. can someone help out? | 03:00 |
| knoppies | hexmare, have you installed drivers? | 03:00 |
| allowoverride | airtonix: its a fresh install | 03:00 |
| allowoverride | no prev ver | 03:00 |
| airtonix | hexmare, why are you running two? it has no appreciable benefit | 03:00 |
| ZykoticK9 | dandaman1, sorry miss read you - perhaps you could just SSH into your desktop and run an app there - should output to your speakers (if the files are on the desktop)??? | 03:00 |
| sero | hmm help me please | 03:00 |
| dandaman1 | Dr_Willis: yeah but the music files aren't on my netbook, i want to use the playlists on my desktop, maybe a remote connection or something? | 03:00 |
| mdg2 | allowoverride: what's "gw"? | 03:00 |
| airtonix | mdg2, gateway | 03:00 |
| dandaman1 | ZykoticK9: yeah just came to that conclusion | 03:00 |
| allowoverride | route add default gw look familar? | 03:00 |
| Dr_Willis | dandaman1: you can run a media player on pc1. and have the sound to to the speakers of pc2 wasent that what you asked> | 03:00 |
| hexmare | airtronix > 3 monitors | 03:01 |
| nixjr | why are programs in linux, such a small download, compared to their windows equivalents? for example my windows copy of openoffice is several hundred mb, this linux one is <100mb | 03:01 |

| sero | i wanna downgrade Xorg to version 7.4 | 03:01 |
| airtonix | hexmare, ok understand now. | 03:01 |
| Dr_Willis | dandaman1: or use some remote share/thing i guess if you want to play the FILES from pc1 on a player on pc2 | 03:01 |
| dandaman1 | Dr_Willis: no, the files are on the desktop, sorry bout that didnt specify, i can just do this with a remote connection | 03:01 |
| Dr_Willis | nixjr: because of how dependencies are handles | 03:01 |
| Dr_Willis | dandaman1: you can play/mount remote machines in a dozen differnt ways to access files | 03:01 |
| airtonix | hexmare, its not something i've tried... I assume you've exhausted any results google provides ? | 03:01 |
| ZykoticK9 | dandaman1, you might want to check out MPD as well | 03:01 |

| azabach | k lo k | 03:02 |
| Dr_Willis | ranjan: not really. ive seen peple in jhere befir with 'speakers vs headphone' problems. My speakers do have a headphone port.. so ive never tried it | 03:02 |
| intok | there a way to force clear items from the tmp folder without restarting? flash keeps crapping out and leaving vids behind that can't be deleted, trashing and tossing them doesn't free up the space they're taking up | 03:02 |
| knoppies | hexmare, then restart the PC. | 03:02 |
| scunizi | hexmare: is that with the drivers supplied by ubuntu or the latest/greatest from nvidia? | 03:02 |
| rick_ | allowoverride are you sure thats the ip address of your router? | 03:03 |
| airtonix | hexmare, most of the stuff i see involves using xorg.conf which is ignored by ubuntu after 8.10 i think. | 03:03 |
| allowoverride | so, can someone walk me through troubleshooting? | 03:03 |
| knoppies | hexmare, Hope it doesnt break something. Good luck. see you back here in a bit. | 03:03 |
| Dr_Willis | xorg.conf is not ignored. My nvidia settings are in mine | 03:03 |
| hexmare | oh I am not going anywhere | 03:03 |
| ranjan | knoppies my ubuntu media players are not audibles,,,,,,,through my laptop speakers but are audible with my headphones....my laptop speaker is very much fine (i checked it) ..any body suggest me the solution for it............ | 03:03 |
| hexmare | I am on my laptop in here | 03:03 |
| nixjr | Dr_Willis, excuse my ignorance, im trying to wrap my windows-mind around this, would a good comparison of a dependency be something like vb6 runtime, .net, jre etc? | 03:03 |
| hexmare | desktop is whats thrashed ;) | 03:03 |
| hexmare | rebooting that now | 03:03 |
| Dr_Willis | nixjr: yes and 100's of other little things | 03:03 |
| rick_ | hexmare do you have nvidia graphics on the laptop? | 03:04 |
| hexmare | yup, and that works fine | 03:04 |
| mdg2 | ranjan: run "alsamixer" in a terminal and see if everything is turned up | 03:04 |
| Dr_Willis | nixjr: see windows apps pop some installer that installs dx9 for example.. that you allready have.. well you just had to redownload it even tho you dident need it for that app | 03:04 |
| allowoverride | im serious. its a new ubuntu-server install, i installed with all 3 nics. and now im at the point where i will just restart the install and start again. it doesnt make any sense. matter of fact, this happend a while go. i did the route add default gw 192.168.1.1 , ipfconfig eth0 up, and nothing. | 03:04 |
| hexmare | as for what versions I have tried, I have done 185 and 195.03 | 03:04 |
| semitones | is there a way to see why wicd was misbehaving? | 03:04 |
| rick_ | hexmare which version drivers are you using? | 03:04 |
| Dr_Willis | nixjr: windows program/install problems are often becuase the makers dont include all the needed extra windows support stuff. | 03:04 |
| scunizi | does openJDK conflict with sun-java-6? | 03:04 |
| dandaman1 | ok so if i want to remote connect to my desktop on my netbook and get a graphical interface what should i be doing/using? | 03:04 |
| knoppies | ranjan, I dont know why you highlighted my name, but no. Im going to assume you have your audio port unplugged when you say the speakers dont work? | 03:05 |
| allowoverride | the odd thing is, when in installed, it worked fine. static ip'd and all, but when i rebooted, it wouldnt ping yahoo.com or ip gw. | 03:05 |
| allowoverride | shrugs... | 03:05 |
| Dr_Willis | dandaman1: that wasent what you were asking about befor, | 03:05 |
| rick_ | hexmare 195 isn't even supported by ubuntu yet is it | 03:05 |
| ZykoticK9 | allowoverride, perhaps it just a typo but the command is "ifconfig" not "ipconfig" or "ipfconfig" | 03:05 |
| dandaman1 | i know, but itll work | 03:05 |
| Dr_Willis | dandaman1: you can use the vncserver feature of gnome to do that | 03:05 |
| dandaman1 | kk | 03:05 |
| allowoverride | ZykoticK9: i typed ifconfig eth0 up | 03:05 |
| hexmare | rick let me double check what I have | 03:05 |
| allowoverride | used tab completion | 03:05 |
| ranjan | hexmare my ubuntu media players are not audibles,,,,,,,through my laptop speakers but are audible with my headphones....my laptop speaker is very much fine (i checked it) ..any body suggest me the solution for it............ | 03:05 |

| rick_ | hexmare where at? | 03:06 |

| hexmare | I thought that would amuse you | 03:08 |

| asdfasdfasdfasdf | please help me | 03:12 |
| scunizi | hexmare: by 3? three monitors? ok.. start with one leaving the others unplugged.. get that going first.. then add the next.. remember that there are really 2 different resolutions you're working with .. the size of X and the rez of each monitor.. X needs to be the size of the 3 put together.. xrandr handles a lot of that.. also nvidia-settings | 03:12 |

| knoppies | allowoverride, I would turn the machine off, then reseat all the PCI cards, and boot it up again, see if that helps. But I seem to know less about this than you do. | 03:13 |

| allowoverride | when i installed, the nic worked fine, went to the net, got all the configs, files so forth. the moment i rebooted, it wouldnt ping gw. this is something NOT right for sure. | 03:14 |
| shifty-tl | alyssum, well the grub loads, but the entry for ubuntu disappeared, memtest and windows xp is still there | 03:14 |
| ZykoticK9 | esicam, you might want to have a look at http://www.ghacks.net/2010/02/03/managing-sound-in-ubuntu-9-10/ give a couple of good tips for troubleshooting | 03:14 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: means very little to me. Never seen/heard/used it. the forums might have info on it | 03:14 |
| mdg2 | ranjan: double click the sound icon on your panel bar so it brings up sound dialog | 03:15 |
| hexmare | oh god did that suck | 03:15 |

| alyssum | shifty-tl: i guess that your grub menu didn't get updated correctly the first time you installed the new kernel...well, you can manually input the line to boot up by pressing 'e' in grub. but have to look it up, i forgot all the options. | 03:16 |
| allowoverride | question - how to i reconfigure the onboard nic drivers? its a realtech semi RTL-0110sC/8159SC gigabit eth | 03:16 |
| ranjan | mdg2 no changes ........yet | 03:16 |
| allowoverride | im starting to think that the nic is in gig mode, and the router is in 100 meg mode | 03:16 |
| nixjr | Dr_Willis, i see the benefit of dependencies, breaking down one thing into many small parts, to avoid redundecy, but does having something in many small pieces make it slower? | 03:16 |
| esicam | zykotick9 it's fresh install, lap plays sound through headphone only in ubuntu and in windows, it works fine | 03:16 |
| mdg2 | ranjan: are you headphones plugged in right now? | 03:17 |
| sero | allowoverride: lspci | 03:17 |
| esicam | ranjan have a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting | 03:17 |
| ZykoticK9 | esicam, OH sorry - thought you had no sound at all -- don't know a solution for that (not the first time we've seen it tonight though) | 03:17 |
| allowoverride | question - is there a way to slow the onboard nic card down manually? maybe this is why. during install it was using 100meg eth, but switched to gigE on reboot | 03:17 |
| ranjan | no | 03:17 |
| scunizi | hexmare: that can also be an issue.. in the past, and still.. if you install with more than one monitor plugged in and more than one card things get goofy.. I think you're experiencing the "goofy" part of it.. you'll need to hand write a xorg most likely.. but if you don't have anything important on the machine.. get rid of one card and all but one monitor and reinstall.. then add one thing at a time.. | 03:17 |
| allowoverride | sero: i did that | 03:17 |
| shifty-tl | alyssum, ok I'll try that, I did notice before I booted that the new kernel is no longer installed in /boot but somewhere else | 03:17 |
| ranjan | mdg2 no | 03:17 |
| alyssum | shifty-tl: you do have the initrd and vmlinuz files for the kernel in /boot right? | 03:17 |
| allowoverride | just typed in that input | 03:17 |
| shifty-tl | alyssum no | 03:17 |
| ae86-drifter_ | allowoverride, its called duplex | 03:17 |
| hexmare | grrr | 03:17 |
| allowoverride | ae86-drifter yep | 03:17 |
| mdg2 | ranjan: hoover your mouse pointer over the sound icon on the panel bar and see what it says | 03:17 |
| sero | allowoverride: and? what it shows? | 03:18 |
| hexmare | no nothing important on this particular drive | 03:18 |
| sero | allowoverride: pastebin | 03:18 |
| alyssum | shifty-tl: oh that would explain it. you need those files in their for the grub menu to be automatically updated. i think you can try copying them in there and regenerating the grub menu. maybe it would help to use the live cd to do all that first. | 03:18 |
| scunizi | hexmare: my feeling exactly... however if you want some reading.. check out.http://superuser.com/questions/65989/ubuntu-9-10-3-monitors-setup | 03:18 |

| Blindsite1 | I want to keep my system current | 03:33 |
| ranjan | mdg2 no there isn't | 03:33 |
| alyssum | shifty-tl: here's your files then --- http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/karmic/main/installer-amd64/current/images/hd-media/ | 03:33 |
| ae86-drifter_ | Blindsite1, try checking your sources.list file and ping the hosts | 03:33 |
| olskolirc | hey guys i found atunes its pretty cool | 03:33 |
| olskolirc | i just want an xmms kinda player | 03:34 |
| mdg2 | ranjan: in a terminal type "lsmod" and search for sound and see what sound modules are in use | 03:34 |
| ae86-drifter_ | Blindsite1, did you add any custom repositories? | 03:34 |
| Dr_Willis | Audacious - is similer to xmms/winamp | 03:34 |
| ZykoticK9 | ranjan, mdg2 "lsmod | grep snd_" might be a little easier to sort through | 03:35 |
| scunizi | olskolirc: xmms2 or audacity (I think that's it. | 03:35 |
| opakavic | Dr_Willis: no, audacious is a cliping tool.. its not a good player | 03:35 |
| scunizi | audacious... !! that's it | 03:35 |

| Blindsite1 | excuse me, but you gave me a url and suggested I check my source file and ping the host. I've had ubuntu for like a week now, so I'm sorry if this sounds like a dumb question but what exactly do i do with the url (since when i went there via my browser it looks pretty raw and im guessing its meant to be parsed by the system) and how do i ping the host? | 03:39 |
| opakavic | sero? | 03:39 |
| ranjan | mdg2 http://pastebin.com/m18b6203e see this | 03:39 |

| shifty-tl | ok | 03:39 |
| ZykoticK9 | Blindsite1, rather then trying to ping everything perhaps you could just try changing you source - System / Admin / Software Sources and chose a different server | 03:40 |
| ranjan | zykotick9 plz send that command again | 03:40 |

| Xenny | i'm using an nvidia fx 5200 series card, i installed the suggested driver and from that point on had to start x manually, and then i noticed i couldn't set my screen resolution to anything but crap from the days of evga heh.... | 03:48 |
| ranjan | opakavic grep -ie 'audio' /etc/group | 03:48 |
| alyssum | shifty-tl: hmm.. this is new to me, so i'm just kinda guessing here. did you chroot with sudo? | 03:48 |
| xtremox | someone twitter client diferent of twittux? | 03:48 |
| Xenny | so i installed the prop. driver.. and now it says my kernel module and display driver for xorg are different and it won't start | 03:48 |
| hexmare | xenny join the club | 03:48 |
| shifty-tl | alyssum, I tried both, it gives me a simmilar result | 03:48 |
| opakavic | ranjan: what that command said? | 03:49 |
| mdg2 | if ranjan has sound in headset, would he not be a in sound group? | 03:49 |
| ranjan | mdg2 yes i have R700 audio device | 03:49 |
| Xenny | hexmare: same prob ? | 03:49 |

| Xenny | so we got 3 people wit the same problem :P | 03:49 |
| Jinxware | could someone please check to verify if this is indeed a bug please | 03:49 |
| Xenny | here that oh mighty package maintainers :P hehehehe | 03:49 |
| mdg2 | ranjan: we just need to figure out what module that needs and modprobe it | 03:49 |
| opakavic | Xenny: which means, you did a kernel update.. :( | 03:49 |
| Xenny | ya i did | 03:50 |

| kayve | I installed AMD 64 can I watch YouTube? Download links have "apturl" dialog that won't let me download | 03:50 |
| opakavic | Xenny: which means, you have to create or compile new modules for that! | 03:50 |
| ranjan | mdg2 how can i do that? | 03:50 |
| shifty-tl | alyssum, can I use apt-get to install grub-pc? | 03:50 |
| Xenny | opakavic: doesn't the kernel package do this itself ????? | 03:50 |
| Dravekx | Someone help me with this error? Im trying to install sendmail. http://pastebin.com/m722f663b | 03:51 |

| edbian | kayve, Flash it tricky. Make sure that you only have 1 flash package installed at a time. If you have more than one they tend to block each other. | 03:52 |
| opakavic | Xenny: what was your old kernel version? | 03:52 |

| Dravekx | can you install ubuntu via ssh? | 04:07 |
| knoppies | Dravekx, yes. | 04:07 |
| Xenny | opakavic: now a startx ? | 04:07 |
| opakavic | ranjan: right click the volume icon on your panel | 04:07 |
| opakavic | Xenny: what that replied to you? | 04:08 |
| disappearedng | so if I have mozilla's ppa on my repository `firefox` will actually point to the latest nightly build? | 04:08 |
| ranjan | opakavic yes, then | 04:08 |
| hexmare | time to smoke , back in a bit | 04:08 |
| Dravekx | knoppies, like a fresh partition, blow off your server, install via ssh? | 04:08 |
| GamesMedic | Ubuntu graphical login interface crashes and reboots. Sometimes it takes 15 tries to get in. Doing a CNTRL ALT F2 will let me log in tty mode but startx will not run. Log says its already running on DISPLAY 0 | 04:08 |
| Xenny | opakavic: failed for the same goddamn reason | 04:08 |
| Xenny | opakavic: seriously will you accept the dcc send ? it has a log of what happened | 04:08 |
| opakavic | ranjan: goto preference | 04:08 |
| opakavic | Xenny: sorry, i can't | 04:08 |
| Xenny | sigghhhh | 04:08 |
| ranjan | opakavic, ok | 04:08 |
| ZykoticK9 | Xenny, use pastebin instead | 04:09 |
| Dr_Willis | disappearedng: depends on the exact PPA you are using. theres 'stable' ppa's then thers daily build ppa's | 04:09 |
| Xenny | opakavic: maybe i can use pastebin with lynx | 04:09 |
| ranjan | opakavic, what else | 04:09 |
| Xenny | opakavic: one sec | 04:09 |
| opakavic | Xenny: what was the error message | 04:09 |
| edbian | disappearedng, Only if you update every day. The software is still installed on your system. It's just that the that repo has a newer version every day | 04:09 |
| opakavic | Xenny: okay do that | 04:09 |
| knoppies | Dravekx, dont know what you mean by blow off your server. I think I should explain what I did and you see if you can do something similar to install via SSH (I didnt install via SSH, but I had the option to) | 04:09 |
| mdg2 | ranjan: you wanna do it via terminal? | 04:09 |
| scunizi | Xenny: you could use pastebinit for the cli | 04:09 |
| opakavic | ranjan: what are the options you can see in dropdown list | 04:09 |
| ranjan | mdg2 any way, but i want to do it | 04:10 |
| opakavic | ranjan: what are the options you can see in dropdown list | 04:10 |
| mdg2 | ranjan: in a terminal type: sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-alsa-karmic-generic | 04:10 |
| knoppies | Dravekx, I used the mini.iso (made a bootable flash drive from it) and it had an option to "continue installation via SSH". I followed this tutorial: http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2007/10/08/how-to-install-ubuntu-locally-over-the-network/ | 04:10 |
| Xenny | opakavic: can't won't let me upload a file i have to paste the f**k*** thing !!! *screams* is there anything which will let me upload txt files to share a link ? | 04:11 |
| knoppies | Dravekx, that tut is not directly related to your problem though. | 04:11 |
| ranjan | mdg2 i'm going | 04:11 |
| Dravekx | knoppies, sweet! thats what I wanted.. an "over the network install. | 04:11 |
| Fauntix | I guess this is an unfixable problem | 04:11 |
| knoppies | Dragnslcr, ok. Enjoy. | 04:11 |
| opakavic | Xenny: what was error message? | 04:11 |

| ranjan | mdg2 its done | 04:14 |
| opakavic | ranjan: what are the options you can see in dropdown list | 04:14 |
| knoppies | Fauntix, I would suggest you open up the sources list, and comment out the "line 1" it is talking about. | 04:14 |
| Fauntix | type '--2010-02-04' is not known on line 1 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list | 04:14 |

| opakavic | Xenny: and remove that xorg.conf | 04:14 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: typo on line 1 ity seems to be saying to me in etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list | 04:14 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: so edit that file. or delete that file | 04:15 |

| nOStahl | any ideas | 04:18 |
| opakavic | Xenny: ? | 04:18 |
| Xenny | opakavic: that it created a new configuration file in my users home dir | 04:18 |
| opakavic | xenny | 04:18 |
| opakavic | Xenny: so cp that to /etc/X11 | 04:18 |
| Fauntix | ok i followed the directions on the winehq list... and that doesnt work | 04:18 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: be more concice and clear as to waht you are doing. | 04:19 |

| silvernode | Anyone else notice anything strange about http://winehg.org ? | 04:19 |
| Xenny | opakavic: ok and then ? | 04:19 |
| opakavic | Xenny: this is the command, cp /home/xenny/xorg.con.new /etc/X11 | 04:19 |
| Fauntix | All i did was remove the winehq source list from synaptic | 04:19 |
| opakavic | Xenny: are you in /etc/X11? | 04:19 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: so what 'dident work' ? | 04:19 |
| Xenny | opakavic: i did and i renamed it to xorg.conf | 04:19 |
| seanbrystone | i think it's winehq not winehg | 04:19 |
| Xenny | opakavic: yes | 04:20 |
| opakavic | Xenny: cool | 04:20 |
| ZykoticK9 | silvernode, use http://www.winehq.org/ | 04:20 |
| opakavic | Xenny: now start kdm | 04:20 |
| Xenny | opakavic: then i tried to start the server :P | 04:20 |
| ranjan | mdg2 i logged back in but still i'm nt getting sound | 04:20 |
| Fauntix | lets start over to make winehq installed and work.... from the begining | 04:20 |
| Xenny | opakavic: annddddddddddddddddddd same problem lol | 04:20 |
| mdg2 | ranjan: look under Preferences > Sound and see if you see anything different/new | 04:21 |
| silvernode | ZykoticK9, Yes that was a typo. The actual address is some sort of fake page. The download page is missing as well as the homepage. | 04:21 |
| Xenny | opakavic: it do not like you sam i am it do not like green eggs and ham :P | 04:21 |
| opakavic | Xenny: do you have that binary driver? | 04:21 |
| Xenny | opakavic: i told you i downloaded the driver from nvidia | 04:21 |
| silvernode | Something seems to be wrong with http://winehq.org | 04:21 |
| Xenny | opakavic: i had installed the one suggested by ubuntu but i don't know how to get rid of the stupid thing | 04:21 |
| opakavic | Xenny: i mean, are you having that bin file in your harddisk | 04:21 |
| ZykoticK9 | silvernode, right side "Latest Releases" allows downloading? | 04:21 |
| Xenny | opakavic: its saying the driver and kernel mod are diffent | 04:21 |
| nOStahl | zykotick9 its a bcm4303 | 04:22 |
| opakavic | Xenny: i mean, are you having that bin file in your harddisk | 04:22 |
| Xenny | opakavic: i'm just gonna reload and try again LOL this isn't worth the time, i just installed the system anyway | 04:22 |
| hexmare | xenny , I just reinstalled with 9.04 | 04:22 |
| opakavic | Xenny: reply to my answer ! | 04:22 |
| silvernode | ZykoticK9, Usually the page is red and has a big download link on it but today it's some strange page that doesn't seem to have anything to do with wine at all. | 04:22 |
| Xenny | opakavic: i already did, multiple times | 04:23 |
| Alan502 | is there a way i can handle hex wep passwords with gnome-network-manager? I cannot connect to a router because Ubuntu does not seem to support passwords in hex :( | 04:23 |
| Xenny | hexmare: how did that work out ? | 04:23 |
| ranjan | mdg2 there is sound option which says starting sound and nothing happens after that | 04:23 |
| ZykoticK9 | nOStahl, oh man, lots of people with issues with that card/karmic - best of luck man | 04:23 |
| opakavic | Xenny: if you are having that nvidia setup file, just unistall that, and install it again for new kernel modules for your video card | 04:23 |
| mdg2 | ranjan: hmm..... | 04:23 |
| hexmare | just got done the install and kicked over to the nvidia drivers waiting on boot now | 04:24 |
| ZykoticK9 | silvernode, i guess i don't pay as much attention - but the Wine DB is certainly still there (all i use that site for) | 04:24 |
| ranjan | mdg2 i found that in my sound preferences the hardware is automatically selected as internal audio rather than r700 audio device | 04:24 |

| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: check that file its mentioning. could be that file is not needed.. or some how goofed up, it should have 1 line in it. | 04:36 |
| heliord | but I want to make the first 200 gigs of the new one a degraded raid1, and sync that up to a third hard drive that is currently removed | 04:36 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-wine/ppa/ubuntu karmic main | 04:36 |
| heliord | (syncing after rebooting into the installation) | 04:36 |
| ChogyDan | Dr_Willis: yeah, but that command won't give that file, only the old command. He must have just re-ran the old command... | 04:37 |
| opakavic | ranjan: can you please send me screenshot of that preferences | 04:37 |
| kayve | I need to install MatLab but it doesn't say anything about licensing on this page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MATLAB and it has a blurb about being "preliminary" | 04:37 |
| heliord | but the partitioner doesn't seem to have any raid options, and mdadm doesn't seem to be available | 04:37 |
| Dr_Willis | ChogyDan: yep. thats what has me confused | 04:37 |
| kayve | is one of those commands just going to prompt me for the license password I am going to get after I pay for Matlab? | 04:37 |
| opakavic | ranjan: gimme links of those screenshots | 04:38 |
| Fauntix | deb? | 04:38 |
| heliord | and I don't see mdadm in the ubuntu software center tool | 04:38 |
| ranjan | opakavic ok | 04:38 |
| buzza | I'm Using kubuntu 9.10 and i had this same problem in Ubuntu I can't access my wifi i have a Buffalo WZR2-G300N router and a bigpond 2 wire modem non wireless, the connection is via AOSS, i can access my wifi in windows vista with a program that comes with my router called ClientManagerV, can someone help me connect to my internet connection as i can't access my wifi in kubuntu | 04:39 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: yes. thats a line from within that repos listing.. its NOT a command. | 04:39 |
| psycho_oreos | buzza, is there a wireless interface to begin with on ubuntu? | 04:40 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: if this is all voodoo then you may want to learn some more linux basics. and apt-get ussage. | 04:40 |
| ranjan | opakavic where shall i put them in which site | 04:40 |
| heliord | so, anyone know how to install mdadm, or otherwise configure raid from the installation program? | 04:40 |
| shawnboy | This is me searching for help with failed ssh login using rsa keys. Now would be a wonderful time to jump in. | 04:40 |
| buzza | the wireless interface wont work to connect | 04:41 |
| opakavic | ranjan: use imageshack or something you kow | 04:41 |
| blankthemuffin | is there something nicer than Brasero for burning a dvd video. By nicer I mean something that I can configure and that works? | 04:41 |
| Jinxware | buzza, you probably need to disable the AOSS in the router config and just use wpa2 as linux does not support these proprietary "extra security" measures like the windows drivers have | 04:41 |
| psycho_oreos | buzza, what chipset do you have? | 04:41 |

| ZykoticK9 | blankthemuffin, personally i like K3B (but hate that it requires all the KDE libs) | 04:41 |
| knoppies | shawnboy, you can try empty the file that stores the keys. and then let them re-add them. That fixed my issue when the server changed its IP | 04:42 |
| Fauntix | i just need wine and flash to work right now while i learn | 04:42 |

| happyface | nm-applet says wifi is disabled and dhclient can't resolve dhcp! Help!! | 04:42 |
| opakavic | ranjan: use imageshack or something you kow | 04:42 |
| shawnboy | knoppies: so empty the authorized_keys file on server? then try logging in? | 04:42 |
| Fauntix | sorry for being a n00b but that what you get for not touching linux for a few years | 04:42 |
| psycho_oreos | happyface, then you need to enable wifi | 04:42 |
| knoppies | okc, I would recommend you backup your /home and do a clean install. but its up to you | 04:42 |
| buzza | ACER Nplify 802.11b/gDraft-N WLAN | 04:42 |
| knoppies | shawnboy, on client. | 04:42 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: the apt package manager hasent changed that much in several years. | 04:43 |
| happyface | psycho_oreos: it is enabled. ifconfig wlan0 up | 04:43 |
| Fauntix | i understand i forgot alot of the commands and stuff lol | 04:43 |
| kayve | apt-get install [to your heart's desire?] | 04:43 |
| shawnboy | knoppies: not sure what u mean. I have in ~/.ssh/ .... id_rsa and known_hosts | 04:43 |
| psycho_oreos | buzza, hmm would probably help if you pastebin your lspci -nnk output, and you may also want to try Jinxware's solutions, that is to disable AOSS and use WPA2 | 04:43 |
| knoppies | shawnboy, I think its the known_hosts. | 04:43 |
| buzza | I can't access my router config IP though | 04:44 |
| psycho_oreos | happyface, and the last few lines of dmesg ? anything about rfkill? | 04:44 |
| Fauntix | where do i find the repository dialog | 04:44 |
| knoppies | shawnboy, you might want to make a backup, but thats up to you. | 04:44 |
| knoppies | shawnboy, did it help? | 04:44 |
| psycho_oreos | buzza, well you'll need to do that from windows first because it won't connect and therefore be attached to the network and obtain IP address, etc | 04:44 |
| saruman | opakavic: my idea worked to get my x server back up and running | 04:45 |
| saruman | opakavic: now i just need to figure out why i can't get a higher res | 04:45 |
| Fauntix | the error should be in there | 04:45 |
| buzza | how can i find out my router's config ip? | 04:45 |
| shawnboy | knoppies. nope. I did "mv known_hosts k_h" then tried... had to reaffirm host key. said yes, but prob at same phase. | 04:45 |
| Dr_Willis | !apt | Fauntix | 04:45 |

| od3n | deos anyone know if the madwifi drivers come with 9.10 | 04:46 |
| buzza | Buffalo WZR2-G300N, | 04:46 |
| Fauntix | ok but how does that help my view the repository dialog? | 04:46 |
| shawnboy | ssh with rsa works with Putty in XP. | 04:47 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: use the gui pacakge manager tools if you want a gui. check teh menus | 04:47 |
| happyface | psycho_oreos: dmesg just says wlan0: link is not ready.. and some other stuff about loading the iwlagn firmware | 04:47 |
| shawnboy | but not from Karmic | 04:47 |
| psycho_oreos | od3n, doubt it, madwifi is slowly being deprecated in favour of ath5k/ath9k | 04:47 |
| od3n | ok | 04:47 |
| Fauntix | again I Can't Open the synaptic Package manager... is there another package manager? | 04:48 |

| blakkheim | od3n: i've got a madwifi svn snapshot if you want it | 04:48 |
| od3n | so those are the drivers I should be using then | 04:48 |
| psycho_oreos | happyface, hmm | 04:48 |
| psycho_oreos | od3n, depending on your atheros chipset's capabilities | 04:48 |
| OlivierLi | Hi could someone help me with a terminal problem? Almost no command work, they all say not found. | 04:48 |

| psycho_oreos | dooglus, those other interfaces are not up, you can use ifconfig <dev> up or use ifconfig -a | 04:49 |
| cthulhu2 | So, how do I make my resolution larger than 1280? Somebody said something about protected drivers? What do I do? | 04:49 |
| od3n | yeah I am looking for all that info on my chipset but have yet to locate it | 04:50 |
| psycho_oreos | cthulhu2, proprietary drivers they probably meant, depends on the chipset | 04:50 |
| dooglus | psycho_oreos: I think I need to install something to get the other interfaces to exist. I can't 'ifup' either of them | 04:50 |

| cthulhu2 | psycho_oreos Can you help me figure out what I need friends? | 04:50 |
| psycho_oreos | dooglus, details of why it may not work may be listed in dmesg | 04:50 |

| koshari | whats your monitors resolution and whats your gpu? | 04:50 |
| cthulhu2 | I am using a 42 inch lcd tv | 04:51 |
| jofreslo | hola | 04:51 |
| psycho_oreos | dooglus, that's expected when the other laptop has different hardware specifications compared to your dead laptop | 04:51 |
| cthulhu2 | and I dont know how to check the res or even know what a gpu is | 04:51 |
| kayve | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MATLAB | 04:51 |

| koshari | you will need to know | 04:51 |
| dooglus | psycho_oreos: so what's the fix? is there some way I can tell ubuntu "you're in a new laptop; look around and discover the new hardware'? | 04:52 |

| Fauntix | apparently my ubuntu bible is wrong about getting help in the community.... sorry for even trying to use Ubuntu... I don't mean to be rude but I have had too many issues and I have yet to move from step 1, I am describing the problems as best as I can | 04:52 |
| psycho_oreos | dooglus, not quite, not as simple as that compared to a re-install afaik.. some drivers may appear in hardware drivers but that's about it I think | 04:52 |
| heliord | I apt-got mdadm, created a degraded raid1 /dev/md0, but the ubuntu installer wants to partition it! | 04:52 |
| ranjan | opakaviv are you thre? | 04:52 |
| cthulhu2 | psycho_oreos http://pastebin.com/m41116282 | 04:52 |
| heliord | is there a way to tell it to install directly onto /dev/md0? | 04:53 |
| dooglus | psycho_oreos: I can boot from a live CD and then mount my old home partition, but it's encrypted with ecryptfs and I can't work out how to mount it unencrypted | 04:53 |
| happyface | psycho_oreos: wait dmesg does say rf_kill bit toggled to enable radio... im not doing anything wrong connecting to networks, it just doesnt work | 04:53 |
| heliord | I'd prefer not to have the extra level of indirection | 04:53 |
| psycho_oreos | cthulhu2, you'll need to install nvidia's proprietary drivers | 04:53 |
| cthulhu2 | okay | 04:53 |
| psycho_oreos | !nvidia | cthulhu2 | 04:53 |
| ubottu | cthulhu2: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 04:53 |
| dooglus | psycho_oreos: is there any way to find out what needs setting up to get the eth0 working? it's working now, since I'm booting from the CD | 04:54 |
| psycho_oreos | dooglus, you will need the module/driver and the associated program to decrypt that partition, but if you can boot in, you will need to enter hardware drivers | 04:54 |
| kayve | I'm scareded | 04:54 |
| Alan502 | is there a way i can handle hex wep passwords with gnome-network-manager? I cannot connect to a router because Ubuntu does not seem to support passwords in hex :( | 04:54 |
| psycho_oreos | happyface, have you also tried to manually connect? via CLI thatis | 04:55 |
| od3n | Intel 3945ABG | 04:55 |
| dooglus | Alan502: 'wicd' is an alternative you might like to try. I don't know if it supports hex passwords, but it does seem to be more complete | 04:55 |
| psycho_oreos | od3n, you will need to use iwl3945 driver for that, that isn't Atheros chipset | 04:55 |
| cthulhu2 | psycho_oreos it says that the recommended prop driver 185 is activated and currently in use | 04:55 |
| od3n | thas the chipset I am using and the drivers are iwl3945 | 04:56 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: how old is that book? | 04:56 |
| cthulhu2 | psycho_oreos the other one is the 173 and doesnt say recommended next to it and says that that one is NOT activated. | 04:56 |
| Fauntix | 2010 | 04:56 |
| Fauntix | i havent fully finished it | 04:56 |
| psycho_oreos | cthulhu2, under your applications menu, do you also see nvidia X server settings? if so, see if its actually showing that you're using nvidia driver | 04:56 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: adding the winehq repos was like 4 commands i added just a few min ago. Im not sure what you are doing wrong | 04:56 |
| Alan502 | dooglus, actually wicd does support hex passwords. I tried it, and it works, but wicd doesn't support 3G Modem connections and that is how i normally connect to the internet. So... that way i'd have to be switching between wicd and gnome-network-manager.... is there something that can make it easier? | 04:56 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: unless theres somthuing up at the winehq servers | 04:57 |
| cthulhu2 | yep it shows that im using 185.18.36 | 04:57 |
| psycho_oreos | od3n, well yes which is completely different to madwifi for that matter | 04:57 |
| cthulhu2 | psycho_oreos | 04:57 |
| od3n | so thats just the chipset for the network card right | 04:57 |
| psycho_oreos | cthulhu2, and your TV is connected via VGA type connector? | 04:57 |
| dooglus | Alan502: not that I know of. I tend to edit /etc/network/interfaces by hand, but that's not particularly friendly | 04:57 |
| psycho_oreos | od3n, yes wireless network card | 04:57 |
| cthulhu2 | psycho_oreos hdmi | 04:57 |
| Alan502 | dooglus, lol, no | 04:58 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: http://pastebin.ca/1788740 the exact commands i used | 04:58 |
| kayve | OK. I'm going to do this then https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MATLAB | 04:58 |
| psycho_oreos | cthulhu2, under nvidia X settings, are you able to see the secondary monitor? | 04:58 |
| Fauntix | Dr_Willis, Can you walk me through step by step letter by letter to make sure I "Am" doing this right | 04:58 |
| kayve | I'm scareded. | 04:58 |
| Alan502 | does anybody know how can i simplify the task of switching from wicd to gnome-network-manager and viceversa? | 04:58 |
| kayve | I done broke my Ubuntu last year | 04:58 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: thats the history of the commands i typed. | 04:58 |
| od3n | so should I get another card | 04:59 |
| saruman | arrrrghhh | 04:59 |
| cthulhu2 | Alright I changed it to 1920 in the xserver area | 04:59 |
| === saruman is now known as Xenny | ||
| psycho_oreos | od3n, why do you want to do that? | 04:59 |
| Xenny | arrrrggh | 04:59 |
| cthulhu2 | but now my top and bottom bars are gone | 04:59 |
| cthulhu2 | what to do now? | 04:59 |
| cthulhu2 | also it seems to lag a bit | 05:00 |
| psycho_oreos | cthulhu2, the resolution is probably too high, adjust the resolution a bit lower | 05:00 |
| Xenny | fricking nvidia 5200 crap why is it I could get this to work at one point in debian but not on kubuntu ????? | 05:00 |
| kayve | oh I'm dumb. | 05:00 |
| Fauntix | Dr_Willis, whats the history I dont see anything unless you already typed it up higher | 05:00 |
| Xenny | did any of the other guys in here having the same problem have any luck fixing it ? | 05:00 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: http://pastebin.ca/1788740 the exact commands i used | 05:00 |
| od3n | well will my current card do all the same things as the atheros | 05:00 |
| Alan502 | or perhaps someone know how can i make gnome-network-manager connect to a router with a password that must be entered as Hex? | 05:00 |
| psycho_oreos | od3n, basic things maybe, but advanced stuff no | 05:01 |
| Fauntix | found it sorry | 05:01 |
| shawnboy | Still hoping for some ssh insight. | 05:01 |
| rolsworth | is ubuntu capable of the windows 7 style task bar or grouping multiple windows in one? | 05:01 |
| Xenny | so... i got the driver from nvidia.com to work on my system now... but i still can't get a resolution greater than 640x480 | 05:01 |
| psycho_oreos | od3n, is there a particular reason why you want atheros wireless network card? | 05:01 |
| k0d3g3ar | Alan502: Both of my laptops connected to my home wifi which has a Hex WEP key with Gnome Network Manager. Not sure what your problem is, but it worked out of the box for me | 05:02 |
| psycho_oreos | Xenny, it would probably be better if you went via hardware drivers and install restricted drivers | 05:02 |
| cthulhu | psycho_oreos that seemed to work pretty good man! | 05:02 |
| Xenny | psycho_oreos: you mean point it to the .run file i get from nvidia ? | 05:02 |

| okc | sound problem in ubuntu9.10>?can anyone help>???? | 05:02 |
| Xenny | psycho_oreos: from inside a running X server ? | 05:02 |
| Guest3635 | I dont see much of a difference before I was at 1280 now im at 13 something | 05:02 |
| Guest3635 | whats the differencE? things dont really look that smaller | 05:03 |
| psycho_oreos | Xenny, no no, under *ubuntu you can go through X into hardware drivers and install proprietary driver from there, it would probably save mucking around with a .run file | 05:03 |
| Alan502 | k0d3g3ar, hmm i'm using ubuntu UNR and the network manager doesn't seem to have an option to enter the password as HEX | 05:03 |
| od3n | I am pretty much a windows person and just getting into linux the last few months | 05:03 |
| okc | i dont know xserver...but its not working from gui. | 05:03 |
| Xenny | psycho_oreos: i tried that though, and it sucked balls, it did the same crap i'm having problems with now | 05:03 |
| psycho_oreos | Guest3635, and the reason why it was lagging before was probably because it has to support two monitors I think | 05:03 |
| rolsworth | is ubuntu capable of the windows 7 style taskbar or at least grouping multiple windows in one? | 05:04 |
| okc | where is this .run file? | 05:04 |
| psycho_oreos | od3n, ahh well, you can I suppose swap the card out if your laptop/nettop isn't HP/Compaq, Lenovo/IBM afaik | 05:04 |
| Fauntix | ok it still gives me the E: Type '--2010-02-04' is not known on line 1 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list after running the first command | 05:04 |

| neezer | is there an easy way to set that up? | 05:04 |
| Alan502 | rolsworth, try to look in the taskbar preferences, there should be an option that does what you want | 05:05 |
| Roasted | Can anybody tell me why when I apply two identical icon sets to my laptop and desktop, my desktop works fine but my laptop fails to apply all of the icons properly? Particularly the firefox icon? | 05:05 |

| psycho_oreos | okc, what was your problem? | 05:05 |
| Avenegra | in gnome you can group windows in the taskbar. i use awn and it also has similar functionality | 05:05 |
| haqe18 | neezer: umm,, just put everything in a script ? | 05:05 |
| okc | i upgraded 9.04 from net to 9.10...and the result is no sound.. | 05:06 |
| neezer | haqe18: I don't really know how to do that? | 05:06 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: delete taht winehw.list file - ive NO idea where that file is comming from | 05:06 |
| Alan502 | k0d3g3ar, so basically my problem is that i cannot see where to option to enter as HEX is! | 05:06 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: or edit that file and add a deb line line i pasted. | 05:06 |
| psycho_oreos | Xenny, hmm well afaik it has to compile cleanly and *ubuntu these days use dkms.. and then Xorg needs to be using nvidia driver for it to work | 05:06 |
| Fauntix | Dr_Willis, Command to delete it | 05:06 |
| OlivierLi | Hi, I have a really weird problem, my terminal wont run any command that contains whitespace. | 05:06 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: th4 commands i used did NOT make that file | 05:06 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: 'sudo rm /path/to/wahtever' | 05:06 |
| Roasted | does anybody at least know how to change the firefox icon Im having issues with? | 05:07 |
| neezer | haqe18: I know the command I need to use, but I'm not sure how to delay it about 2 hours so that I am sure the files are done being ripped before I start transferring them. | 05:07 |
| psycho_oreos | okc, that wouldn't be related to a simple .run file.. that is generally an upgrade issue.. which I personally disliked in favour of clean install | 05:07 |
| okc | psycho_oreos:tell me how to check the functioning of audio drivers r anything? | 05:07 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: your ubuntu bible book hasent even covered the 'rm' command yet? or any bash basics> | 05:07 |
| od3n | I have a hp nw9440 | 05:07 |
| okc | psycho_oreos:So what should I do? | 05:07 |
| od3n | the card comes outso it can be changed | 05:07 |
| Roasted | has anybody had video tearing with a nvidia graphics card and actually found a FIX for it? Long time ubuntu/nvidia user here whos lived with the problem since 2006. Any things I can do? | 05:08 |
| psycho_oreos | okc, there's a few ways, see if the driver is loaded for sound card, via lspci -nnk, then check if its muted via pulseaudio or whatever it is | 05:08 |
| haqe18 | neezer: basically you just put the commands into a text file, one command per line. | 05:08 |
| Fauntix | Dr_Willis, rm: cannot remove `/etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list': No such file or directory | 05:08 |
| Fauntix | lol i feel that i typed that wrong \ | 05:08 |
| shawnboy | Good things come to those who wait. I'm looking for some SSH love here. RSA key won't work for me. | 05:08 |
| haqe18 | neezer: sleep 7200 can be used to wait 2hrs | 05:08 |
| Fauntix | lol >.< | 05:08 |
| haqe18 | neezer: see man sleep | 05:08 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: the TAB key will complete file names.. | 05:08 |
| psycho_oreos | od3n, that won't work, HP has whitelisting on their laptops, it'll work via plugging in, but if its not on the whitelist, BIOS will give you an error and disable the device | 05:08 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: cd to the directory and see whats in there | 05:09 |
| okc | psycho_oreos:i typed the command and got a series of list.... which i didnt understand anything!:'( | 05:09 |
| psycho_oreos | okc, in other words, a reinstall would probably be a better option for you | 05:10 |
| psycho_oreos | okc, not an upgrade but clean install | 05:10 |
| od3n | what do you mean by whitelisting? | 05:10 |
| okc | ok..so no other options? | 05:10 |
| Roasted | hey.. guys... firefox icon... how do I change it | 05:11 |
| psycho_oreos | od3n, only certain things on that list are allow but the rest cannot be used.. kinda like a bouncer at a privately held party for invited guests only | 05:11 |
| neezer | haqe18: looks like that is what I need, but I can't figure out from the man pages the syntax is. | 05:11 |
| psycho_oreos | okc, no, not unless you're familiar with linux CLI and you're desperate | 05:11 |
| Dr_Willis | sucks when laptop makers Lock down things like that | 05:12 |
| okc | no i dont know CLI! | 05:12 |
| knoppies | Roasted, you can change icons in launchers, not sure how to change the icon from within FF. I know there is a folder called .icons | 05:12 |
| Ryan` | Will ubuntu 6.10 work on an AMD 1300 with 192MB of SDRAM? | 05:12 |
| psycho_oreos | Dr_Willis, yup that's why people need to learn to avoid buying them | 05:13 |
| Dr_Willis | Ryan`: id say yes. but more ram would help | 05:13 |
| knoppies | Ryan`, it should. the only way to find out is to try it. | 05:13 |
| od3n | so then if I was going to build a laptop for training and learning what would you recomend | 05:13 |
| Dr_Willis | Ryan`: but why 6.10? | 05:13 |
| Liquid-Silence | why do people still irc as root? | 05:13 |
| shawnboy | i know someone out there wants the deep satisfaction of helping me with ssh problems. | 05:13 |
| Ryan` | oh, 9.10, sorry. | 05:13 |
| Roasted | knoppies, I know, Ive gone the .icons route. I have an icon package from gnome-look and I have it on my desktop, it sgreat. I put it on my laptop and EVERYTHING works except firefox. Firefox is still the default orange icon, and its enraging me this ONE FKING icon doesnt work. Permissions are fine, 1,566 files in the folder (same as desktop) So Im trying to change JUST that icon at the very elast. | 05:13 |
| Fauntix | Dr_Willis, I tried to delete the file in the bowser and it says Permission denied | 05:13 |
| psycho_oreos | okc, yup which is unfortunate because going through to try and solve an upgrade issues you have is a long and painstaking journey which may not even work | 05:13 |
| shawnboy | psycho_oreos: avoid buying laptops? that seems extreme. | 05:13 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: use the command line... 'sudo rm /path/to/the/file' | 05:13 |
| psycho_oreos | od3n, for laptop brands? | 05:13 |
| === Richie is now known as WelshDragon | ||
| Ryan` | thanks. | 05:13 |
| od3n | yaeh | 05:14 |
| neezer | haqe18: Thanks for the help...I got it figured out. | 05:14 |
| psycho_oreos | shawnboy, no, avoid buying laptop manufacturers that does wireless card whitelisting | 05:14 |
| shawnboy | ah. gotcha | 05:14 |
| neezer | haqe18: I really appreciate the help. | 05:14 |
| okc | psycho_oreos:so is there any method to uninstall all the sound related files and get the new ones? | 05:14 |
| psycho_oreos | od3n, I dunno but personally I'd avoid HP/Compaq, Lenovo/IBM and Sony | 05:14 |
| shawnboy | it's tough to find out detailed info before purchasing , though. (speaking as a very recent laptop purchaser who struggled with making the choice with Ubuntu in mind) | 05:14 |
| psycho_oreos | okc, the problem probably isn't a simple matter of reinstalling, its more of configuration and using one's mind to think on how to solve it because the situation varies | 05:15 |
| od3n | ok | 05:15 |
| kcj1993 | is there any way I can make a device file in /dev that links to another device? | 05:15 |
| Fauntix | Dr_Willis, Ok every wine list in sources.list.d is gone | 05:15 |
| od3n | well I have to go to bed now ,thanks for all the info | 05:15 |
| psycho_oreos | shawnboy, brands are easier to ignore once you remember by the names, but its unfortunate if you're not the buyer | 05:15 |
| psycho_oreos | od3n, nw, nite | 05:16 |
| okc | psycho_oreos:ok... | 05:16 |
| psycho_oreos | okc, I think its something to do with pulseaudio, but I could be very wrong about that | 05:16 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: that was not really needed.. but whatever.. | 05:16 |
| marnold | Regarding laptops i've had great success with IBM | 05:16 |
| Fauntix | Dr_Willis, sorry it was pissing me off | 05:16 |
| shawnboy | so... nobody has any SSH insight for me? | 05:16 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: its a location for extra repos you add. I tend to keep a 'Disabled' directory in that dir and move things to it as i need | 05:16 |
| nd3 | join | 05:17 |
| web1109 | is there an opengl benchmark tools for ubuntu? | 05:17 |
| okc | psycho_oreos:ok..what to do with pulseaudio? | 05:17 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: so about 2 hrs ago when we told you to delete that file you never did delete it? | 05:17 |
| Fauntix | Dr_Willis, like i said | 05:17 |
| Fauntix | i thought i did | 05:17 |
| Alan502 | Can someone help me connecting to a router that requires a HEX password with gnome-network-manager? | 05:17 |
| marnold | shawnboy, repeat the question if you will | 05:17 |
| Fauntix | Dr_Willis, i thought i did | 05:17 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: commands i used -> http://pastebin.ca/1788745 | 05:17 |
| koshari | web1109 glxgears is a rough one | 05:17 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: not without using 'sudo rm' or somtjhing similer you dident | 05:17 |
| === mike is now known as Guest3031 | ||
| psycho_oreos | okc, that's where you have to use your head and think, it could be muted, it could be not functioning, you need to check.. and/or remove pulseaudio in favour of legacy ALSA.. but much before that you might want to check if there even is a driver loaded for your sound chip | 05:18 |
| shawnboy | marnold: get to enter passphrase stage then it doesn't work. trying to login ssh from karmic to freenas using rsa keys. Works from Putty on XP (as client) | 05:18 |

| notorious_2010 | hello | 05:19 |
| marnold | shawnboy, you have an ssh-agent running | 05:19 |
| web1109 | koshari: according to wiki glxgears measures bit throughput as opposed to rendering ability | 05:19 |
| shawnboy | marnold: when I loosen permissions on id_rsa I get the error about being too loose. When I tighten perms, it appears only to look for dsa key. No.. no ssh-agent running. | 05:19 |
| koshari | web1109 theres a compiz benchmark as well but that measures throughput as well | 05:19 |
| marnold | try running an agent | 05:20 |
| Alan502 | someone please help me connect a router that requires a hex password! please, another solution than WICD | 05:20 |

| Fauntix | Dr_Willis, I will run the second one | 05:20 |
| Alan502 | Help! | 05:21 |
| shawnboy | marnold: ok. can u concisely tell me what an ssh-agent is for? | 05:21 |
| kcj1993 | Alan502, is it using WEP? | 05:21 |
| marnold | Alan502, what brand of router and what do you mean by HEX password | 05:21 |
| Alan502 | kcj1993, yes it is using WEP | 05:21 |
| === rainofkayos is now known as SolarisBoy | ||
| marnold | shawnboy, ssh-agent decrypts ssh rsa/dsa keys | 05:22 |
| Alan502 | marnold, i mean that the password i use is not in ASCII , its in a xx:xx:xx:xx:xx fashion | 05:22 |
| kcj1993 | Alan502, what version of ubuntu are you running? | 05:22 |
| disappearedng | I locked the version of my ubuntu in synaptic manager to make sure I kept my firefox 3.5, then I added the ppa of mozilla in my source and installed firefox 3.6 but then right now I can't seem to find namoraka in my applications->internet why? | 05:22 |
| marnold | and caches them in memory | 05:22 |
| Alan502 | kcj1993, i'm running UNR 9.10 | 05:22 |
| Dr_Willis | Fauntix: the program 'ubuntu-tweak' lets you add the winehq and other program repos with just a few clicks. :) somthing to try in the future | 05:23 |
| shawnboy | marnold: hmm. ok. I guess I'll check out using an ssh-agent then. i didn't know that was required. | 05:23 |
| marnold | it solves most ssh auth problems i find | 05:23 |
| kcj1993 | Alan502, can you right click on the network manager and select "Edit Connections..."? | 05:24 |
| shawnboy | marnold: is there a *preferred* ssh-agent out there u can point me to? | 05:24 |
| k0d3g3ar | Alan502: try entering your hex code without the : seperators. That worked just fine for me | 05:24 |
| Roasted | Anybody have any idea why the icon sets I install on my desktop often dotn work on my laptop? Is there a package that allows this to work on my desktop that maybe Im missing on my laptop? | 05:24 |
| Alan502 | k0d3g3ar, humm ok, i'll try it and see if it works. Thank you very much! | 05:25 |
| k0d3g3ar | Alan502: np | 05:25 |
| kcj1993 | Can anyone help me now please :) | 05:25 |
| k0d3g3ar | Alan502: just one long string, ie. 025F3A etc | 05:25 |
| kcj1993 | is there any way I can make a device file in /dev that links to another device? | 05:25 |
| Dr_Willis | kcj1993: sudo ln -s /dev/whatever /dev/whever | 05:26 |
| marnold | shawnboy, ssh-agent or seahorse both are installed by default | 05:26 |
| Shazam | plugged in a USB HDD, dmesg lists "Device offlined - not ready after error recovery". How does one resolve this error, and can I manually "on-line" it? | 05:26 |
| shawnboy | marnold: ok. thanks. I'll go read how to use. | 05:26 |
| kcj1993 | Dr_Willis, thanks | 05:27 |
| Shazam | or even thoughts as to what it means? I've googled and I'm not getting anything that makes sense to me | 05:27 |
| Roasted | is there a way to uncompress 7z archives? | 05:28 |
| Roasted | nevermind | 05:28 |
| Roasted | didnt realize ubuntu had one in their repos. | 05:28 |
| marnold | kcj1993, note that that approach could damage the device depending on what your trying to do | 05:28 |
| kcj1993 | ok | 05:28 |
| marnold | so be careful | 05:28 |

| ZykoticK9 | Faunt, Vent works (except for the Push-to-Talk part) | 05:51 |

| Faunt | ZykoticK9, too much background noise to use voice activated | 05:52 |
| ZykoticK9 | Faunt, what's the other popular game-chat program called? | 05:52 |
| ton | wl110 >_< that means impossible? | 05:52 |
| airtonix | ZykoticK9, recommend using the native linux client for ventrilo | 05:52 |
| okc | ekim1:it includes all the plugins to play video or audio files... | 05:52 |
| ekim1 | xangua: yes, I was trying this last night and I have restarted linux and restarted the zune. | 05:52 |
| Faunt | i dont know... the one i am using currently? | 05:52 |
| Saurabh | Hi.. | 05:52 |
| Faunt | ZykoticK9, i use vent for work not game | 05:53 |
| airtonix | ZykoticK9, but if you can convince your friends to use another group voip server i recommend mumble | 05:53 |
| Dr_Willis | owen1: checjk permissions/ownership comapred to other scripts in init.d i would suggest | 05:53 |
| wl110 | ton: for the most part yeah, its the internal circuitry that is built to only output | 05:53 |
| ZykoticK9 | Faunt, see airtonix suggestion above :) | 05:53 |
| ton | wl110: blech.... work around? Like maybe connect to tv and then computer? | 05:53 |
| nutrix | how to update firefox in ubuntu ? | 05:53 |
| Saurabh | Can anyone give me idea, how to upgrade ubuntu ???? | 05:53 |
| Faunt | Airtonix, I cant move over 1k-5k people to a different program | 05:53 |
| ZykoticK9 | Faunt, TeamSpeak - that's what i was thinking of - it has linux client/server | 05:53 |
| ton | wl110: wait, that wouldn't make any sense either... | 05:54 |
| airtonix | Faunt, mumble is same if not better audio quality than ventrilo, but has better latency performance | 05:54 |
| ekim1 | okc: when I checked add/remove software and type it in for a search, it shows up with a checkmark as it is already installed. | 05:54 |
| wl110 | gasull: try sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 05:54 |
| Faunt | Airtonix, especially just to accomedate one person | 05:54 |
| BHoward | @saurbh what do you mean? | 05:55 |
| thoven | ekim1: install ubuntu-restricted-extras from ubuntu software center and that should fix your problem | 05:55 |

| Fraxtil | What's the standard method for letting multiple programs use sound at the same time? | 05:58 |
| airtonix | Faunt, i'd think about suggesting it, mumble servers are going to be cheaper to run | 05:58 |
| Fraxtil | mpd always says /dev/dsp is busy. | 05:58 |
| jamie | wait so i put "chmod +x perlbox-voice.install; ./filename perlbox-voice.install | 05:58 |
| airtonix | jamie, no | 05:58 |
| ekim1 | okc: it looks like it from the add/remove area when searched | 05:59 |
| jamie | help sorry, please | 05:59 |
| wl110 | gasull: i'll look around some more | 05:59 |
| owen1 | Dr_Willis: i changed it to 755 and now i get: update-rc.d: symlink: Permission denied | 05:59 |
| airtonix | jamie, are you in ther terminal ? are you in the same directory as the perlbox-voice.install ? | 05:59 |
| skydrome | the default way to paste into a putty screen is using middle button correct? | 05:59 |
| jamie | I don't think so its inside my downloads folder | 05:59 |
| jamie | how would i direct it there? | 05:59 |
| airtonix | jamie, ok open the folder containing the file... right click on it and go to the permissions tab | 06:00 |
| jamie | k | 06:00 |
| ZykoticK9 | jamie, the easiest thing is "sh perlbox-voice.install" - alt way is "chmod +x perlbox-voice.install && ./perlbox-voice.install" | 06:00 |
| wl110 | gasull: in the future, always make a backup copy of /etc/X11/xorg.conf by sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak | 06:00 |
| airtonix | jamie, down the bottom of the permissions tab you should see a checkbox "allow this file to execute" or similar. | 06:00 |
| Nighthawk82 | Can i use my Ipod touch 8GB on ubuntu and access everything like i would on windows if so what is the app i use? | 06:00 |
| okc | ekim1:yeah from there only ..see u have installed this or not...Gstreamer ffmpeg video plugin...if not installit | 06:00 |
| jamie | yes it is checked | 06:00 |
| airtonix | Nighthawk82, not if its touched a itunes9 | 06:00 |
| gasull | wl110: Thanks. It's weird that I don't see any errors with ctrl + alt + F8. And yes, I should have done a backup. | 06:01 |
| Nighthawk82 | ok so if i was to restore it then and then have it come to linux it could work is that the only way? | 06:01 |
| wl110 | gasull: why don't you move the xorg.conf to xorg.conf.bad and then run that command again; its worth a shot | 06:01 |
| airtonix | jamie, ok to makes things easier to work with the terminal i suggest you install nautilus-open-terminal | 06:02 |
| jamie | when i try "sh perlbox-voice.install" it says cant open. | 06:02 |
| ZykoticK9 | jamie, are you in the same directory as the file? | 06:02 |
| airtonix | jamie, try this instead : ./perlbox-voice.install | 06:02 |
| wl110 | gasull: then this command: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 06:02 |
| ekim1 | okc: all plugins are installed. | 06:02 |
| jamie | 'No such file or directory" :( | 06:03 |
| airtonix | jamie, when you opened the terminal did you do this ? : cd ~/Downloads | 06:03 |
| jamie | NO lol | 06:03 |
| jamie | I did now | 06:03 |
| airtonix | jamie, :) its the reason why i suggested you install nautilus-open-terminal (it automates that step for you when you right click somewhere in nautilius) | 06:03 |
| airtonix | '!info nautilus-open-terminal | 06:04 |
| skydrome | no one uses putty linux? | 06:04 |

| airtonix | jamie, you might also find nautilus-gksu very handy | 06:04 |
| gasull | wl110: renaming the xorg file fixed it. Thanks a lot!!! | 06:05 |
| wl110 | skydrome: to paste alternatively, you can right click in the terminal area of the ssh'ed computer | 06:05 |
| Roasted | I have MANY icon sets installed. Both on my desktop and laptop. Everything works 100% on my desktop, but my laptop does NOT change the firefox icon. It always stays default. What the... ?!?!?! | 06:05 |
| jamie | Okay ,sorry for me being so slow. How do I get to nautilus? | 06:05 |
| DaemonFC | is there a PPA with Catalyst 10.1 in it somewhere? | 06:05 |
| wl110 | gasull: no problem, glad to help | 06:05 |
| jamie | I'm still having troubles with this dang file. | 06:05 |
| airtonix | jamie, nautilus is the file manager in ubuntu ... so opening any folder from the desktop or the places menu will mean you are using nautilus | 06:05 |
| gasull | wl110: thanks a lot :-) | 06:05 |
| wl110 | skydrome: *left click* i mean, sorry | 06:05 |
| wl110 | skydrome: one of the two | 06:05 |
| jamie | ahh i see | 06:06 |
| skydrome | wl110, doesnt work | 06:06 |
| wl110 | skydrome: i have it installed, let me take a look | 06:06 |
| ekim1 | okc: any other ideas! | 06:06 |
| airtonix | jamie, is this where you got the file ? >> http://perlbox.sourceforge.net/pbtk/ | 06:07 |
| wl110 | skydrome: middle click works for me (the wheel on the mouse) | 06:07 |
| skydrome | ok thats my problem, my middle button is broken | 06:07 |
| wl110 | skydrome: try ctrl+shift+ins | 06:08 |
| Dr_Willis | Roasted: i noticed that depending on what firefox PPA repo i was using the icon may or may not be changed as prt of the theme | 06:08 |
| airtonix | skydrome, trying to paste text into terminal ? ctrl shift v | 06:08 |
| okc | ekim1:havent u installed GStreamer? | 06:08 |
| wl110 | airtonix: its different in putty for linux | 06:08 |
| BlackDalek | how do I turn off the drum sound when the log in screen pops up? | 06:08 |
| skydrome | wl110, yes that works, can that be configured? | 06:09 |
| Roasted | Dr_Willis, well, maybe that helps... Im using the regular firefox install from the 9.10 that came default on my laptop. on my desktop I have the PPA for 3.6 | 06:09 |
| airtonix | skydrome, any reason why you are using putty and not the default ssh client ? | 06:09 |
| Dr_Willis | BlackDalek: i saw a gdm2 config tool (not in the repos) That did that. i may have it bookmarked at http://delicious/dr_willis/ under the gdm or gdm2 tags | 06:09 |
| brandon_ | hi everyone can i have terminal run as my part of my desktop? | 06:09 |
| airtonix | brand0n, have a look at tilda | 06:09 |
| wl110 | skydrome: not to my knowledge, unless you compile putty from source and change that before compile somewhere in the code | 06:09 |
| Dr_Willis | brandon_: claify what you mean. | 06:09 |
| airtonix | !info tilda | brand0n | 06:09 |

| xangua | Dr_Willis Roasted try 'ubuntuzilla' for use the latest STABLE version of firefox (aka 3.6) | 06:10 |
| Dr_Willis | owen1: i rarely mess with service scripts. so no idea. | 06:10 |
| airtonix | brandon_, that message i sent for brand0n was for you | 06:10 |
| Dr_Willis | Thers getting to be so many different PPA's for ff its scary | 06:10 |
| wl110 | skydrome: also, other programs use that as past (old linux command), so if your stuck, like in vi, try ctrl+shift+ins | 06:10 |
| Dr_Willis | I noticed teh Daily build PPA had a different icon then the Stable PPA i was using. | 06:10 |
| okc | ekim1:tell me players u have?It wil be played even if you have mplayer. | 06:10 |
| owen1 | Dr_Willis: np. thanks | 06:11 |
| Dr_Willis | owen1: for a simple serice/command you could just use /etc/rc.local | 06:11 |

| Rayston | Having an issue with my resolution stuck at 800x600 on my Acer Aspire laptop with Intel Graphics card, pretty sure I need to edit my xorg.conf but I do not really know how, have posted info at launchpad https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+question/100177 | 06:12 |
| wl110 | okc: i haven't used it in many years, but the man httrack (then q to quit) should be a great starting point | 06:12 |
| wl110 | !httrack | okc | 06:12 |
| ZykoticK9 | jamie, what program was it? | 06:12 |
| ekim1 | okc: players? not sure what you mean. I have a zune and trying to use rhythmbox. | 06:12 |
| airtonix | Rayston, unless you are using older version of ubuntu (pre 8.10) xorg.conf wont do much i fear | 06:13 |
| okc | wl110:i typed the command ./httrack in terminal | 06:13 |
| wl110 | okc: in terminal, you can try 'man httrack' or ./httrack --help | 06:13 |
| rww | airtonix, Rayston: Newer versions of Ubuntu still respect an xorg.conf file if it's present, they just don't create one by default. | 06:13 |
| robtmr | anyone know what it means if my boot fails with "udevd-work[675]: 'devkit-disks-part-id /dev/.tmp-block-179:1' unexpected exit with status 0x0007" ? | 06:14 |
| gasull | I cannot watch movies in my laptop since 2 months ago or so. So long ago that I've kind of given up. Youtube and embedded videos work, but MPlayer plays only the audio of the movie, not the video. Any ideas what can be wrong? Thank you in advance. | 06:14 |
| airtonix | jamie, not all programs create gnome menu entries. your first step would be to find its binary files using the locate command in the terminal | 06:14 |
| airtonix | jamie, is this where you got the file ? >> http://perlbox.sourceforge.net/pbtk/ | 06:14 |
| zealot | this channel is +c | 06:14 |
| Dr_Willis | brandon_: ive seen it done in the past. used to be called 'root terminals' or somthing like that. not running a terminal.. but a 'root window level terminal' ie: at the lowest level | 06:15 |
| zealot | thats highly racial | 06:15 |
| ZykoticK9 | gasull, from a cli try "mplayer -vo x11 FILE" and/or "mplayer -vo gl FILE" and see if either work | 06:15 |
| wl110 | robtmr: what is your computer's architecture; udevd's latest version doesn't work with arm architecture | 06:15 |
| Rayston | airtronix, rww:yeah, its definitely created at this point, using vesa driver, I would think it should use the i915, tried just changing it to that in the xorg.conf, as well as i810 and intel, never fixes it but makes it worse | 06:15 |
| zealot | and it is not the ubuntu way | 06:15 |
| airtonix | !troll > zealot | 06:15 |

| robtmr | wl110: yeah, it's arm - what are my other options? | 06:15 |

| ppaulhus | Hi, just wondering, when you set the hostname of a machine, do you include the domain? | 06:16 |
| owen1 | Dr_Willis: interesting | 06:16 |
| airtonix | superbee, i assume you are talking to someone in particular ? | 06:16 |
| gasull | ZykoticK9: yes, it works! | 06:16 |
| wl110 | robtmr: i ran into your problem, so i reinstalled and never let it update udevd, but at the same time, i am currently blocked from upgrading software unless i 'sudo apt-get install program' individually to upgrade (n810 on ubuntu 9.10) | 06:16 |
| ZykoticK9 | ppaulhus, careful if you are changing your hostname - be sure /etc/hosts is updated as well (or sudo might break) | 06:17 |
| gasull | ZykoticK9: why if I open the file in Nautilus it doesn't work? | 06:17 |
| superbee | Airtonix being on Wirc has its cons, i just saw a message on locate in the terminal | 06:17 |
| ZykoticK9 | gasull, which one worked? x11 or gl? | 06:17 |
| gasull | ZykoticK9: both | 06:17 |
| ppaulhus | ZykoticK9: ok I will be... but is the hostname and domain a different thing? if my machine is one.bluesponge.com, should I just set hostname to 'one' ? | 06:18 |
| zealot | well i actually need help | 06:18 |
| zealot | i had a kernel panic today | 06:18 |
| ZykoticK9 | gasull, in nautilus right click a video file and goto Open With tab and check the settings there... | 06:18 |

| wl110 | robtmr: it boots fine on my end, i just have to install software individually; you may want to search how to chroot from a live ubuntu, that will get you into the system you can't boot into | 06:22 |

| Ziber | When a network interface comes up, should "up ip -6 addr add" work to add routes/other addresses? | 06:24 |
| gasull | ZykoticK9: The settings in open with are Movie Player and Mplayer. The both fail. I don't understand why I can't use MoviePlayer/Totem | 06:24 |
| superbee | gOS? :-) anyone? | 06:24 |
| celthunder | Ziber, to add routes put route add <routing info> | 06:24 |
| superbee | Gotta love that screenshot | 06:24 |
| ZykoticK9 | gasull, i can't help with MoviePlayer/Totem -- i'm a hardcore mplayer guy for many years... sorry i'm no help | 06:24 |
| ekim1 | Dr_Willis, vlc, xbmc, mplayer are not listed in ubuntu's add/remove when searched... | 06:24 |
| Ziber | celthunder: and other addresse? | 06:24 |
| Ziber | *addresses? | 06:24 |
| wl110 | robtmr: in the live ubuntu (or another linux on the same computer), to chroot, (http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-restore-grub-boot-loader-after-installing-windows.html), just don't reinstall grub in your case | 06:25 |
| ZykoticK9 | ekim1, Add/Remove doesn't show all software, Synaptic the other GUI installer will | 06:25 |

| celthunder | ziber add an address with ifconfig. | 06:25 |
| celthunder | the two are seperate routes and addresses | 06:25 |
| superbee | Zykotick what happens when you do mplayer filename | 06:26 |
| okc | ekim1:If not found get them installed...by 'apt-get install vlc' in terminal | 06:26 |

| wl110 | can someone help me get my compaq wl110 wireless card working on ubuntu (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1398697)? | 06:26 |
| Dr_Willis | ekim1: boxee is a downloadble one. and enna - both have some neat features | 06:26 |
| gasull | ZykoticK9: Mplayer doesn't work from Nautilus. I guess I need the custom command. | 06:26 |
| superbee | Whats the error you get on the console | 06:26 |
| ZykoticK9 | gasull, if you're adding "mplayer" to open with be sure you are using "mplayer -vo gl" as the custom command | 06:27 |
| gasull | ZykoticK9: Should I use x11 or gl? | 06:27 |
| okc | ekim1:if u want it through gui goto System-->administration-->Synaptic manager and serch for vlc 'apply' to get it installed | 06:27 |
| ZykoticK9 | gasull, gl! | 06:27 |
| gasull | ZykoticK9: OK | 06:27 |
| almoxarife | compiz won't startup when the system is loaded, I can loaded it once I am in a gdm session though, when I run 'compiz' from terminal it loads with all my settings in place, how do I repair it so that it starts from startup? | 06:27 |
| ZykoticK9 | gasull, x11 "probably" doesn't go fullscreen, you can test/check if you want | 06:27 |
| wl110 | atrus: you could always try an alternative network-manager, such as wicd, then switch back to default if that doesn't work (wicd.sourceforge.net) | 06:27 |
| superbee | Mplayer+gui launch=reduced performance | 06:28 |
| ekim1 | Dr_Willis, the files that I need to listen to or convert are WMA files, not WMV like I thought...my bad. | 06:28 |
| atrus | wl110: wicd doesn't support simultaneous wireless/wifi connections :/ | 06:28 |
| superbee | Use it like it was meant to be used, from the termy | 06:28 |

| wl110 | atrus: here is the change log: http://sourceforge.net/projects/wicd/files/wicd-stable/wicd-1.7.0/NEWS/view | 06:29 |
| r15 | i have a laptop, only with one partition and one recovery partition | 06:29 |
| ZykoticK9 | superbee, i didn't notice you messaged me (got my nic wrong, use tab key - MUCH easier) - i'm not the one having the issue gasull is | 06:29 |
| Rayston | can anyone help me with my resolution issue? details at https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+question/100177 | 06:29 |
| gasull | ZykoticK9: Well, it works with mplayer -vo gl. I guess this is enough. Can I ask why do you prefer mplayer over totem? | 06:29 |
| r15 | i want to install ubuntu on it, | 06:29 |
| atrus | wl110: also, it doesn't support notifying applications of what's happening via dbus like network-manager does. | 06:29 |
| wl110 | atrus: see if it was added from the last version you tried | 06:29 |
| almoxarife | compiz won't startup when the system is loaded, I can loaded it once I am in a gdm session though, when I run 'compiz' from terminal it loads with all my settings in place, how do I repair it so that it starts from startup? | 06:30 |
| soreau | almoxarife: Install simple-ccsm and select Custom in Sys>Prefs>Appearance>Visual Effects tab | 06:30 |
| r15 | basically, could you please tell me some tool to compress existing 99GB partition and make free space to make it dual boot? | 06:30 |
| ZykoticK9 | gasull, i prefer mplayer over everything, it's the most powerful linux media player (not the most user friendly, but certainly the most powerful) | 06:30 |
| almoxarife | soreau: thnks | 06:30 |

| koshari | r15 is the partition full? | 06:31 |
| gasull | ZykoticK9: define "powerful" :-) Do you mean that it opens more file formats? Or that it's faster? | 06:31 |

| atrus | wl110: nothing about dual access in wicd. i'd really just like to get network-manager working, since that's what's supposed to work in ubuntu. or does everyone just use wicd? | 06:32 |
| koshari | r15 therefore you want gparted, as always back up any omportant data before using partitioning tools | 06:32 |
| wl110 | ZykoticK9: yes | 06:32 |
| atrus | wl110: nothing in its changelog anyways. | 06:32 |
| r15 | 99 GB partition with only windows fresh installed | 06:32 |
| ZykoticK9 | gasull, it will both play and encode anything i throw at it -- you can change outputs like we did with the -vo switch, it also supports Nvidia accelerated video vdpau | 06:32 |
| wl110 | atrus: its fixed many's errors, but you seem to need network-manager for specific reasons | 06:32 |
| superbee | eyinova: google weechat | 06:32 |
| koshari | r15 you will need to run it from a live session | 06:33 |
| eyinova | hi i need irc client linux console,not webchat | 06:33 |
| ZykoticK9 | wl110, your wireless doesn't work right? | 06:33 |
| atrus | wl110: it's just annoying that network-manager never seems to work where wicd always does, just with a reduced feature set, and annoying interface :/ | 06:33 |
| ZykoticK9 | wl110, oh are you using wicd? | 06:33 |
| heliord | anybody knowledgeable about ubuntu's initrd? I installed ubuntu but it doesn't boot correctly | 06:33 |
| ton | eyinova, what exactly do you mean? | 06:33 |
| eyinova | hi i need irc client linux console,not webchat with soported sock and firewall | 06:33 |
| wl110 | Zykotick9: it doesn't work because it detects the hardware as TI, not Compaq | 06:33 |
| gasull | ZykoticK9: OK. Thanks a lot. Can I mess my system if I uninstall totem now? | 06:33 |
| superbee | I said "weechat" NOT webchat. | 06:33 |
| eyinova | sorry | 06:33 |
| r15 | koshari: rightnow i am from a live ubuntu dvd itself | 06:34 |

| r15 | sorry | 06:34 |

| heliord | and if so, how can I configure which modules get included? | 06:36 |
| Omen_20 | Could someone please tell me why there are drivers on the live cd, but no way of getting to install? I can see the drivers for my wireless if in the live cd, yet not when i boot and have the cd in the drive. WTF?! | 06:36 |
| rosco | i fired up lubuntu last night. very short on app's. not even irc app. | 06:36 |
| koshari | heliord it would be a waste of time because on reboot it would load the one on the image again | 06:36 |

| heliord | koshari, ok, updated initrd, thanks for the pointer, I'll see if this works now | 06:50 |
| ZykoticK9 | wl110, remove the wl110 from your system - "dmesg" shows all kernel messages, type dmesg in a terminal and see what the bottom looks like, open a 2nd terminal - plug the wl110 into the computer, wait 10 seconds and type dmesg again -- does anything change? | 06:50 |

| bashca | any help please ( usb 2-1: usbfs: process 2346 (usb_modeswitch) did not claim interface 0 before use | 06:55 |
| ZykoticK9 | wl110, i'm also worried that it's showing up as eth2 instead of wlan0 | 06:55 |
| candy_ | xangua, it also supports it for hotmail it seems, i don know. my fren use it. | 06:55 |
| lonnie | What's the best chat client to use for Ubuntu? | 06:56 |
| xangua | candy_: no, it doesn't | 06:56 |
| koshari | lonnie whatever one you like best | 06:56 |
| HTT-Bird | ZykoticK9: that's common, my broadcom did that for forever under Debian with wl_sta | 06:56 |
| lonnie | I don't know any. | 06:56 |
| candy_ | xangua, any alternative?? | 06:56 |
| shawnboy | newwarrior: have u tried playing the movie files? | 06:56 |
| B3rz3rk3r | lonnie, pidgin and empathy are most popular | 06:56 |
| lonnie | I'm using xchat for the first time, anyone like something else better? | 06:56 |
| r15 | any idea? | 06:56 |
| koshari | lonnie pidgin, xchat, empathy | 06:56 |
| xangua | candy_: use jabber¿ | 06:56 |
| HTT-Bird | it's wlan0 now tho, but I'm one of those wacky guys with an LP-PHY, 2.6.32 kernel, and B43_FORCE_PIO enabled in his kernel | 06:57 |
| r15 | koshari: any idea? | 06:57 |
| Dr_Willis | I like WeeChat :) version 0.3.0+ | 06:57 |
| marnold | shawnboy, your welcome and freenas is apperently not the most sane of projects so it wouldn't surprise me | 06:57 |
| candy_ | xangua, can i talk to people in hotmail and yahoo with video from jabber id?? | 06:57 |
| HTT-Bird | (on that box that is, aka my lappy, which runs Debian Squeeze) | 06:57 |
| bashca | this my usb_modeswitch.conf ( http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m1a771ff5 ) | 06:57 |
| g1er | lonnie, if your up for a challenge, irssi | 06:57 |
| koshari | r15 iam guessing windows is using a dynamic partition, what version of windows? | 06:57 |
| newwarrior | shawnboy: yes, i have some audio files too and they work, but the movies, vlc don't play it and totem says that the files are crypted | 06:57 |
| r15 | widows xp | 06:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | HTT-Bird, doesn't that give Network Manager problems? do the cards get wireless support? i mean ethernet cards don't need SSIDs / WEP-WPA / sorta thing... | 06:57 |
| r15 | koshari: it's widows xp | 06:58 |
| lonnie | gler, why would it be worth a challenge? | 06:58 |
| xangua | candy_: nop, you need an msn/yahoo account to talk to msn/yahoo contacts | 06:58 |
| koshari | r15 winxp didnt use dynamic partitions so that gues is scuttled, | 06:58 |
| lonnie | Is that what you use? | 06:58 |

| candy_ | xangua, i dont have anybody in jabber. i want to connect visually and audio'lly to my people.. any suggestion?? | 06:58 |

| wl110 | Zykotick9: should i file a bug report somewhere, if so where? | 06:58 |
| Dr_Willis | Itunes stuff BOUGHT from itunes - may have DRM that needs to be removed | 06:58 |
| HTT-Bird | ZykoticK9: NM handled it quite fine | 06:58 |

| HTT-Bird | hmmm...anyone used getdeb/playdeb? | 06:59 |
| g1er | lonnie, some folks like the old school feel and the fact that you can use it without a window manager | 06:59 |
| newwarrior | shawnboy: handbrake say is crypted | 06:59 |
| candy_ | xangua, i downloaded skype but couldnt install :-( | 06:59 |
| marnold | my last sentence had bad grammar in it. Oh No! | 06:59 |
| shawnboy | newwarrior: sorry, that was my best guess. | 06:59 |
| ZykoticK9 | wl110, have a look in /lib/firmware - do you see agere_sta_fw.bin ? | 06:59 |
| lonnie | I see. | 06:59 |

| blakkheim | HTT-Bird: gmrun | 07:08 |
| airtonix | HTT-Bird, nothing else does what gnome-do does. | 07:09 |

| ZykoticK9 | wl110, http://paste.ubuntu.com/370761/ | 07:09 |

| valium | hey anyone here got samba and vscan for clam working? | 07:10 |
| Dr_Willis | valium: doing what exactly? | 07:11 |
| `mOOse` | k guys, I got one for ya - I just installed xubuntu on my hd and made a /boot partition, and a /home partition - update mgr wants to install 1500 mb of updates on my 30 mb boot partition - help! | 07:11 |
| MHz128 | hiya | 07:11 |
| Dr_Willis | `mOOse`: you mean a / and a /home partition? and a /boot partition? | 07:11 |
| Flannel | `mOOse`: that likely wont be 1500MB on your /boot, it'll mostly go into your / | 07:12 |
| MHz128 | Does anyone know how to capture RTMP streaming video using ubuntu tools? | 07:12 |
| * unixalot has arrived | 07:12 | |
| valium | Dr_Willis: well samba can use vfs plugin so that everytime a user requests a file it is scanned before being served. Alternatively it passes files to clamav before saving them to a samba share | 07:12 |
| `mOOse` | yes a / and a /home | 07:12 |
| allowoverride | question - whats the best way to disable ipv6 at boot? | 07:12 |
| Dr_Willis | valium: sounds like yet another way to make samba even slower... :) | 07:12 |

| okc | can anyone help me in installing mozilla firefox 3.6 in ubuntu 9.10 | 07:13 |
| valium | Dr_Willis : samba is pretty quick if configured properly. I have over 100 users and it is also a domain controller. It works nicely. But virus scanning is a bit issue - cant seem to get it going | 07:13 |
| airtonix | okc, not tried looking for the ppa yet ? | 07:13 |
| allowoverride | question - whats the best way to disable ipv6 at boot? ubuntu-server | 07:13 |
| jacquesdupontd | hi | 07:13 |
| Dr_Willis | valium: i toss around 20+GB of files back and forth too much. :) but not much point in virus scanning my videos | 07:14 |

| Flannel | `mOOse`: Huh. Alright, try unchecking all of the updates and only installing the linux-image related ones | 07:17 |
| `mOOse` | you think that'll help somehow? | 07:17 |
| ZykoticK9 | wl110, sorry man, i'm afraid your issue has beaten me... i have no more ideas | 07:18 |
| allowoverride | so i do not modify /lib/modules/~uname/modules.alias? but /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist, as /etc/modprobe/aliases doesn't exist on this system. | 07:18 |
| wl110 | ZykoticK9: that crashed NM when trying to connect to a network, but the card detected networks, just crashes NM and all my network connections | 07:18 |
| wl110 | ZykoticK9: where should i leave a bug report? | 07:18 |
| ZykoticK9 | wl110, have you previously tried wicd? if so perhaps you should try it again? | 07:18 |
| Flannel | `mOOse`: It's worth a shot. There's no reason those updates would install to /boot (at least some of them) so that message is making me think that's a bug in the UI or whatnot. | 07:18 |
| Flannel | `mOOse`: You could also try doing it from the command line and seeing how it takes it | 07:19 |
| wl110 | ZykoticK9: yeah, i might try it again, but if the errors at the kernel, would wicd fix it? | 07:19 |
| `mOOse` | um | 07:19 |
| `mOOse` | help me out | 07:19 |
| * unixalot whats your fav. font in ubuntu?? | 07:19 | |

| Flannel | `mOOse`: Er, wait. 15M? That's pretty normal. | 07:19 |
| Flannel | `mOOse`: How big is your /boot partition? | 07:19 |
| ZykoticK9 | wl110, not sure what "package" this should be reported under but typically bugs can be filed with "ubuntu-bug $PACKAGENAME" and it sorta guides you through the process | 07:19 |
| `mOOse` | I made a 30m boot partition based on previous installs | 07:20 |
| `mOOse` | figured grub would need about 20 | 07:20 |
| Flannel | Earlier you said 1500MB for boot, which is significantly different :) | 07:20 |
| `mOOse` | no no | 07:20 |
| `mOOse` | the updates want that | 07:20 |
| `mOOse` | the parition's only 30 megs | 07:20 |

| `mOOse` | I'll be the first to admit it lol | 07:23 |
| Flannel | `mOOse`: I'm currently using 47MB on boot, and I've got more than a few older kernels. Are you sure you don't have any old ones you might be able to remove? | 07:23 |
| Flannel | `mOOse`: I'd give yourself 100MB of boot, that'll give you plenty of wiggle room. | 07:23 |
| Dr_Willis | You may be missreading whats / and /boot and what the package manager is saying | 07:23 |
| `mOOse` | I *just* installed this Flannel | 07:23 |

| `mOOse` | that's the error | 07:24 |
| Flannel | `mOOse`: I've only got two kernels, so if two kernels are 47MB, then you can't fit two of them in 30MB :) | 07:24 |
| `mOOse` | erm | 07:24 |
| rww | `mOOse`: That says 1507k, not 1507M | 07:24 |
| `mOOse` | so I should reformat | 07:24 |
| `mOOse` | yea I realize that now rww :-) | 07:24 |
| `mOOse` | aaaaaaa | 07:25 |
| `mOOse` | I see now | 07:25 |
| rww | `mOOse`: and personally, I use 100MB or 200MB for /boot partitions. Better safe than sorry :) | 07:25 |
| `mOOse` | new kernels - boot partitions! | 07:25 |
| `mOOse` | I made it too small! | 07:25 |
| Flannel | `mOOse`: On the upside, you've only lost 30 minutes worth of config type stuff. | 07:25 |
| Dr_Willis | or just dont mount /boot/ and let is use the /boot directory on / | 07:25 |
| `mOOse` | true - if I don't lose my windows partition in the meantime | 07:25 |
| reactor | ohaider ppl. Does anybody know how to make work UVC webcam that's mounted flipped? | 07:25 |
| jacquesdupontd | mounted flipped ? | 07:26 |
| `mOOse` | ok, so um, dr...already over my head | 07:26 |
| Flannel | `mOOse`: Are you using LVM? | 07:26 |
| reactor | jacquesdupontd, yh | 07:26 |
| jacquesdupontd | seems i won't help you but just to know what you mean so i get less stupid | 07:26 |
| reactor | that webcam is built in ASUS laptop | 07:27 |
| jacquesdupontd | what you mean by flipped | 07:27 |
| jacquesdupontd | yep | 07:27 |
| jacquesdupontd | i have one as well | 07:27 |
| jacquesdupontd | i have an asus laptop from where i'm talking btw | 07:27 |
| `mOOse` | no - that's another thing I was going to activate during the install that I normally use ... | 07:27 |
| Flannel | `mOOse`: You'll want to grab the alternate CD to install for that. | 07:27 |
| `mOOse` | I know in suse you can retroactively add lvm to a partition | 07:28 |
| `mOOse` | that's what I used Flannel | 07:28 |
| Flannel | Yeah, you can, but if you're reinstalling, might as well do it there. | 07:28 |
| jacquesdupontd | reactor, oh in fact you just want your integrated webcam working thats all ? | 07:28 |
| reactor | jacq patches I have tested didtn' work btw | 07:28 |
| `mOOse` | mmm | 07:28 |
| reactor | jacquesdupontd, ^* | 07:28 |
| * `mOOse` breaks out into a sweat | 07:28 | |
| jacquesdupontd | haha ok | 07:28 |
| jacquesdupontd | different ways to say it, ok weird mine was working hrm lemme remember, hm yeah was working perfectly from the beginning | 07:28 |
| reactor | jacquesdupontd, webcam worx fine but gives 180 degrees flipped image | 07:28 |
| jacquesdupontd | mine is a chicony | 07:29 |
| ae86-drifter_ | i had a grub error, so i booted a live cd, then gparted showed my ext4 partition as unallocated, i rebooted again and used grub to manually chainload the win7 partition and i managed to repair the ext4 partition with paragon partition manager, so now i had full access to the ext4 partition again, but, then i loaded up gparted again and my main ntfs partition is now "unallocated" and my recovery partition shows bad MFT i have everyt | 07:29 |
| ae86-drifter_ | hing now backed up with photorec i would just reinstall, but my laptop has a recovery partition which is the only copy of windows 7 i have. i am dual booting only ever used windows to play games on, i updated my GFX driver on win7 one day and this happened...i tried testdisk and chkdsk /R | 07:29 |
| `mOOse` | ok so Dr_Willis ...you think a boot partition isn't necessary right? | 07:29 |
| jacquesdupontd | oh ok | 07:29 |
| Flannel | `mOOse`: It's really easy. During the partitioner bit, make a boot partition (100-200MB) and then throw the rest of your disk into an LVM partition. Then up at the top of that partitioning screen, there's a place to play wth your LVM stuff | 07:29 |
| reactor | jacquesdupontd, mine is Chicony too btw | 07:29 |
| jacquesdupontd | reactor, i remember i had to play with stuff like that on an old hercule webcam | 07:29 |
| Flannel | `mOOse`: For LVM, a separate boot partition is required (can't boot straight to LVM) | 07:29 |
| ae86-drifter_ | please someone help | 07:29 |
| `mOOse` | yes I've done that before and I was GOING to do it this time, but... | 07:29 |
| Dr_Willis | `mOOse`: i dont use lvm. | 07:29 |
| ae86-drifter_ | been trying for 2 days | 07:29 |
| jacquesdupontd | reactor, lemme remind myself how i was doing, i was setting parameters by loading the module | 07:29 |
| Dr_Willis | I keep my partion layouts very simple. :) | 07:29 |
| `mOOse` | ok, so you DO need a boot partition with LVM - I thought so | 07:30 |
| reactor | jacquesdupontd, ok | 07:30 |
| `mOOse` | I mean not to lvm it | 07:30 |
| jacquesdupontd | reactor, but, there should be some software that could help you to set that lemme check | 07:30 |
| `mOOse` | the boot part | 07:30 |
| mkanyisi | ae86-drifter1, are you on ubuntu now? what version? what version is your livecd? | 07:30 |
| ae86-drifter_ | i have a 9.04 livecd here and my laptop has 9.10 | 07:30 |
| jacquesdupontd | reactor, have you checked camorama ? | 07:31 |
| `mOOse` | ok ext2 for boot, ext4 + LVM for /home ...and I hate swaps - what do you think about them? I have a gig of ram | 07:31 |

| ae86-drifter_ | the data is there, the partition table is damaged | 07:44 |

| jacquesdupontd | reactor, seems you have to patch it with a driver comming from linuxtv.org repository and maybe modifying sources to match your kernel | 07:47 |

| anitah | hi somebody can help me? im new | 07:53 |
| ae86-drifter_ | then after a reboot, got this crap | 07:54 |
| egloria | what is the problem | 07:54 |
| mkanyisi | ae86-drifter_, some guy at ubuntuforums.org suggested that HP laptop recovery tools try to overwrite the MBR all the time, hence breaking grub2. | 07:54 |
| mkanyisi | ae86-drifter_, anyway your problem is far far serious than what i had | 07:55 |
| ae86-drifter_ | mkanyisi, first off i got grub error then my ext4 partition was unallocated, so i booted windows and repaired it then my ntfs is unallocated, but it fixed my ext4 | 07:55 |
| mkanyisi | ae86-drifter_, can you boot to your ubuntu on the hdd not the livecd? | 07:56 |

| Duddle | I tried in places - computer - right-click my device and change it there, but it just says "invalid mount option" when I enter "allow_other" in the partitions mount-options | 08:00 |

| spekko | hi all, i downloaded a new theme for my gdm login screen, how do i change it? | 08:02 |
| Duddle | mkanyisi: ext3, I think allow_other allows other users to write even if the drive belongs to root | 08:02 |
| ae86-drifter_ | mkanyisi, no what i meant was booting recovery console with the install disk sorry | 08:02 |
| mkanyisi | Duddle, nope | 08:02 |
| mkanyisi | Duddle, never heard of that | 08:03 |
| Duddle | mkanyisi: well, it is part of the mount-options of my other removable drives | 08:03 |
| mkanyisi | Duddle, you have to use 'chmod' | 08:03 |
| mkanyisi | Duddle, ext3 supports file ownership and permissions and attributes | 08:04 |
| mkanyisi | Duddle, so you have to use 'chmod', 'chown' and 'chattr' | 08:04 |
| reactor | jacquesdupontd, where to add "LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.so v4l2ucp "? | 08:04 |

I have vista too,not satisfied with it.so, how can I uninstal xubuntu and then reinstal it with more space available? sorry for my english, I'm a beginner, with linux too. | 08:39 |
| ae86-drifter_ | okay i tried chkdsk /R once more from the windows 7 recovery disk and its deleting a whole bunch of orphan file record segments and recovered orphaned file $MFT | 08:39 |
| z3r0-0n3 | Could anyone tell me if there is a way to setup my ethernet and wifi connection (both to the same network) to transfer over the connection if one is disconnected so that nothing streaming is interrupted and so I don't have to relogin to my VPN? | 08:39 |
| ae86-drifter_ | up to stage 5/5.. maybe this will fix it | 08:39 |
| asdff | Hey I am trying to follow this guide on editing my xorg.conf: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5144003, however when I append the lines to my xorg.conf as it suggests Ubuntu informs me I have to run in low graphics mode. Also I do not know how to add keyboard0/mouse0. Would anyone be willing to help me :3? | 08:40 |
| meenie | Flannel: I've logged in as root and it says: -bash: lsb_release: command not found | 08:40 |
| ae86-drifter_ | asdff, what is the actual reason you're editing the file? | 08:40 |
| asdff | lol, nerdy as it is, it's so I can run Starcraft at it's normal ratio | 08:41 |
| ae86-drifter_ | asdff, ah ok.. lol.. | 08:41 |
| asdff | as my monitor is 16:10 and there is no fix I can find that will stop it from cutting out the bottom of the game | 08:41 |
| asdff | haha yeah | 08:41 |
| B3rz3rk3r | z3r0-0n3, iv been wondering that for a little while now, i supposed that bridging them was the way to do that, but all that seems to do is mess up the IPs that they obtain and then neither of them work :P | 08:41 |
| ae86-drifter_ | is this running in dosbox? | 08:41 |
| Dr_Willis | asdff: run it in a window. :) | 08:41 |
| marlen | can you help me, please | 08:42 |
| asdff | Dr_Willis: if I run it in a window, not only does my mouse escape and slow the game down, I can not choose the size of the window, it defaults to a certain size | 08:42 |
| z3r0-0n3 | Could anyone tell me if there is a way to setup my ethernet and wifi connection (both to the same network) to transfer over the connection if one is disconnected so that nothing streaming is interrupted and so I don't have to relogin to my VPN? | 08:42 |
| obiwan_ | sry Slart i was afk, i mean how can i see if the process is a daemon, a pipe, a socket, ... _without_ using top, some simple command like ps (but ps doesn't seem to do it as i read in the man) | 08:42 |
| z3r0-0n3 | B3rz3rk3r: there must be a way | 08:42 |
| ae86-drifter_ | asdff, what are you using to run it? wine? dosbox? | 08:42 |
| Dr_Willis | asdff: theres also a wine setting to force wine apps into a 'desktop; thats a window of a set size' | 08:42 |
| z3r0-0n3 | on windows it's easy as 1-2-3 | 08:42 |
| asdff | ae86-drifter1: wine | 08:43 |
| asdff | Dr_Willis: I would very much appreciate a link or name of some kind :) | 08:43 |
| B3rz3rk3r | z3r0-0n3, well how do you do it on windows? perhaps we can find a solution | 08:43 |
| ae86-drifter_ | its a dos game right>? | 08:43 |
| asdff | oh | 08:43 |
| asdff | Dr_Willis: | 08:43 |
| asdff | I can choose a virtual desktop | 08:43 |
| asdff | but if I do it sets it automatically to a really small window despite resolution settings | 08:43 |
| z3r0-0n3 | B3rz3rk3r: its just a box you tick in one of the option windows | 08:43 |
| ae86-drifter_ | asdff, yeah you can | 08:43 |
| ae86-drifter_ | lol | 08:43 |
| pc_ | czech | 08:44 |
| B3rz3rk3r | z3r0-0n3, lol, you will need to be more descriptive than that | 08:44 |
| asdff | it doesn't fix it though | 08:44 |
| Slart | obiwan_: afaik sockets or pipes aren't processes.. a daemon is a normal process afaik | 08:44 |
| ae86-drifter_ | asdff, you can also define the virtual resolution | 08:44 |
| asdff | ae86-drifter1: that is what I was referring to | 08:44 |
| asdff | it does not resize it properly | 08:44 |
| asdff | it sets it automatically to an uber small window | 08:44 |
| Slart | obiwan_: if you want to list open ports and such there's "netstat" | 08:44 |
| pc_ | whois ubuntu-cz irc channel? | 08:44 |
| ZenMasta | is there an open office channel? | 08:44 |
| pc_ | where | 08:44 |
| z3r0-0n3 | B3rz3rk3r: i cant remember the exact place where the option resides. you just select both connections, right click on them, and somewhere along the way you can tick a box to bridge them | 08:45 |
| ae86-drifter_ | asdff, even if you run the actual game in fullscreen and set the resolution for wine bigger | 08:45 |
| Myrtti | !cz | 08:45 |
| ubottu | České uživatele žádáme, aby mluvili v kanále #ubuntu anglicky. Česky je možno se domluvit v #ubuntu-cz. Děkujeme. | 08:45 |
| B3rz3rk3r | whoops | 08:45 |
| asdff | ae86-drifter1: to run it in full screen I have to turn off virtual desktop. Aside from that I know no way of changing the resolution. I tried a command line trick to make it run at 57hz, but it says this is unsupported ;/. | 08:45 |
| marlen | I have vista and I installed xubuntu, but I have little space in it.how can I uninstal it and then reinstal it with more space available?I'm In trouble. | 08:45 |
| Slart | obiwan_: try to explain what you're trying to do | 08:46 |
| z3r0-0n3 | Could anyone tell me if there is a way to setup my ethernet and wifi connection (both to the same network) to transfer over the connection if one is disconnected so that nothing streaming is interrupted and so I don't need to relogin to my VPN? | 08:46 |
| obiwan_ | Slart: i'm trying to know if a program is running as daemon or not | 08:46 |
| ae86-drifter_ | asdff, okay so you want to add a custome resolution into your xorg? | 08:46 |
| asdff | ae86-drifter1: the link explains it pretty well. | 08:46 |
| asdff | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5144003 | 08:46 |
| obiwan_ | Slart: top does that work, so i thought some simpler program can do it too | 08:46 |
| asdff | it's like a tty so you can ctrl-alt f7/f8 in and out | 08:47 |
| ae86-drifter_ | which part do u have trouble with | 08:47 |
| airtonix | z3r0-0n3, if there is a way i doubt its going to be simple... | 08:47 |
| ae86-drifter_ | ah ok | 08:47 |
| resjudicata | how do I get pdfs to open with evince by default instead of acroread? | 08:47 |
| Slart | obiwan_: how do you see if a process is a daemon in "top" ? | 08:47 |
| ae86-drifter_ | so.. did you restart x after editing the file? | 08:47 |
| Dr_Willis | resjudicata: right click on a PDF -> properties. select the tool you want | 08:47 |
| asdff | ae86-drifter1: I appended the lines, (without altering keyboard0/mouse0 as I can not determine their values), and when I restarted Ubuntu informed me it has to run in low graphics mode lol | 08:47 |
| z3r0-0n3 | airtonix: with what authority do you say that? | 08:47 |
| resjudicata | Dr_Willis, but I have to do that everytime, how do I get it to open with evince on double-clicking the file in nautilis? | 08:48 |
| mawst | hmm I ran the codec finder in totem or whatever that is and installed the gstreamer x264 plugin, trying to play a quicktime 1080p file... what do I need? | 08:48 |
| asdff | ae86-drifter1: atm when I type ctrl+alt+f7 I have a blank screen =[ | 08:48 |
| ae86-drifter_ | mawst, use vlc | 08:48 |
| airtonix | z3r0-0n3, if i told you i would have to neutralise you >< | 08:48 |
| z3r0-0n3 | airtonix: you'd have to neuter me? | 08:49 |
| marlen | can anybody tell me how can I uninstal xubuntu and then reinstal it? | 08:49 |
| B3rz3rk3r | z3r0-0n3, what was the method that you used to do this on Windows? If you dont know what its called, then tell me where i can find it and il have a look | 08:49 |
| mawst | ae86-drifter1, isn't vlc going to need a codec too? | 08:49 |
| Dr_Willis | resjudicata: select the default app - its in the properties stuff i just mentioned | 08:49 |
| ae86-drifter_ | mawst, nope | 08:49 |
| Slart | obiwan_: afaik a daemon is just a regular process that runs in the background.. ie it's not under direct user control.. some daemons have a special parent process.. but that's not necessary either | 08:49 |
| airtonix | z3r0-0n3, to be serious though, is this something you can already achieve with other systems ? | 08:49 |
| z3r0-0n3 | B3rz3rk3r: someone did it for me, i just observed. I dont remember that well | 08:49 |
| resjudicata | oh, right | 08:50 |
| ae86-drifter_ | mawst, vlc will install all the codecs u need | 08:50 |
| resjudicata | Dr_Willis, thanks :) | 08:50 |
| turtle_ | i tried to make my usb flash do a live boot, but i dont get a menu option saying "Try Ubuntu without any change to your computer" | 08:50 |
| z3r0-0n3 | airtonix: i achieved it under windows | 08:50 |
| ZenMasta | is there an open office channel? | 08:50 |
| Dr_Willis | turtle_: what does it say then? | 08:50 |
| ae86-drifter_ | asdff, did you check the x log | 08:50 |
| asdff | lol I didn't even know there was one, I'm fairly newb to nix | 08:50 |
| turtle_ | Install Ubuntu/Check CD for defects/Test memory/Boot from first hard disk | 08:51 |
| airtonix | z3r0-0n3, is there a one word phrase to describe this feature ? | 08:51 |
| z3r0-0n3 | airtonix: merge | 08:51 |
| B3rz3rk3r | airtonix, bridging? | 08:51 |
| B3rz3rk3r | thats what i suggested earlier to z3r0-0n3, but he claims its not that | 08:51 |
| z3r0-0n3 | they call it merging connections in windows | 08:51 |
| airtonix | z3r0-0n3, so i assume there is nothing on ubuntuforums about it ? | 08:52 |
| marlen | hello | 08:52 |
| z3r0-0n3 | B3rz3rk3r: i never said that | 08:52 |
| sianis | hello, I have a hardy server and I need a package, like locales-all on Debian, does anybody know this package's alternative? | 08:52 |
| ae86-drifter_ | asdff, /var/log/xorg | 08:52 |
| wyseterm | /win 2 | 08:52 |
| llutz | airtonix: it's called bridging | 08:52 |
| ae86-drifter_ | i think | 08:52 |
| wyseterm | oops | 08:52 |
| ZykoticK9 | asdff, that Xorg.conf example is pretty old - for example i believe the Subsection "Display" / Modes line has been changed to "Option "metamodes" ...", also I hope you didn't past the monitor section into your xorg, as it's probably incorrect | 08:52 |
| z3r0-0n3 | airtonix: ill have to try that | 08:52 |
| asdff | ZykoticK9: haha alas, I did. | 08:52 |
| obiwan_ | ok Slart sry i could read a help inside htop and it says the types are running, sleping, zombie etc not daemon pipe and stuff ok thanks man | 08:52 |
| ZykoticK9 | asdff, did you happen to make a backup of your origional xorg? | 08:52 |
| airtonix | llutz, you understand what z3r0-0n3 wants? i thought bridging was something else slightly different | 08:53 |
| asdff | ZykoticK9: I merely appended those lines, thus there is no data loss | 08:53 |
| ZykoticK9 | asdff, could you pastebin your xorg | 08:53 |
| Slart | obiwan_: you're welcome | 08:53 |
| asdff | ZykoticK9: kk brb | 08:53 |
| Coded1 | i have a dual boot system setup (winxp/karmic) but I don't want the kids to get into xp with out my approval, grub(v1) allowed me to enter a hash of a password into /boot/grub.conf to load anything other than the default entry but grub2 I cant seem to find the same option, any ideas? | 08:53 |
| jazz | need a link once again to the florida team please | 08:54 |
| Dr_Willis | Coded1: you can make it not show a menu at all. | 08:54 |
| ae86-drifter_ | Coded1, just set a pw for grub | 08:54 |
| Coded1 | Dr_Willis, it still allows for enterprising teens to press the shift key while booting | 08:54 |
| llutz | airtonix: for me it sounds liek bridging, i'm just not sure about the "switch connection" part | 08:54 |
| Dr_Willis | Coded1: break their fingers. | 08:54 |
| jazz | and also does anyone know if delicious installs a icons for bookmark or it it all online only | 08:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Coded1: and you can set the timeout i think to where it dose4nt allow that. but i havent bothered | 08:55 |
| airtonix | z3r0-0n3, does this describe what you want ? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1058695 | 08:55 |
| asdff | ZykoticK9: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m790a4acf, thanks | 08:55 |
| Coded1 | Dr_Willis, that would work but then they wouldn't need a computer either ;) | 08:55 |
| z3r0-0n3 | llutz: i want to be able to switch from ethernet to wireless without interrupting my VPN connection | 08:55 |
| Coded1 | ae86-drifter_, where do I find the section to set the password? | 08:56 |
| ae86-drifter_ | Coded1, http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/Security.html#Security | 08:56 |
| llutz | z3r0-0n3: thats the part i'm not sure about | 08:56 |
| ZykoticK9 | asdff, ok you have mismatched Monitor/Screen sections for sure -- could we possibly start this process again? probably easiest thing to do? | 08:56 |
| asdff | ^_^ | 08:56 |
| asdff | kk | 08:56 |
| ae86-drifter_ | Coded1, sorry thats for grub 1 , see here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1369019 | 08:57 |
| asdff | ZykoticK9: tbh I am really not fussed, just want SC to work in full screen without cropping :s | 08:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | asdff, ok - start by making a backup "cd /etc/X11 && sudo mv xorg.conf xorg.starcraft", then "sudo nvidia-xconfig", then pastebin the new xorg | 08:58 |
| Coded1 | ae86-drifter_, ty | 08:58 |
| asdff | Kk brb | 08:58 |
| z3r0-0n3 | airtonix: no that's not what i meant | 08:59 |
| asdff | hey ZykoticK9 forgive my entry level knowledge, but the following command doesn't work: sudo cp /etc/X11 /etc/XBAK | 08:59 |
| ae86-drifter_ | how come i didnt have to identify my nick to talk | 09:01 |
| ZykoticK9 | asdff, you can't copy you need to move the xorg.conf or the nvidia-xconfig will fail - so you need to cd /etc/X11 then "sudo mv xorg.conf xorg.starcraft" (you would have to use "sudo cp -r /etc/x11 /etc/XBAK" | 09:01 |
| asdff | ah cheers, that was more than helpful | 09:02 |
| rww | ae86-drifter_: because this channel isn't set to require that | 09:02 |
| ae86-drifter_ | rww, ah ok.. i beleive it used to be | 09:02 |
| ae86-drifter_ | never mind.. ot | 09:02 |
| asdff | ZykoticK9: k made the new xorg.conf file using that command | 09:03 |
| rww | ae86-drifter_: It used to be, yes. | 09:03 |
| jazz | anyone use delicious for bookmarks? | 09:03 |
| rww | ae86-drifter_: It changes based on whether the channel's experiencing spam problems. | 09:03 |
| ZykoticK9 | asdff, now pastebin it | 09:03 |
| ae86-drifter_ | rww, oh ok cool | 09:03 |

| titan_ark | hey. kde seems to be bugging me a lot. will a remove kubuntu-desktop and install ubuntu-desktop remove all kde packages and give me the gnome packages? | 09:04 |
| asdff | I find kfce far lighter than gnome | 09:04 |
| ae86-drifter_ | titan_ark, just keep it, choose youre session at login | 09:04 |
| mneptok | titan_ark: use "purge" and not "remove" to get rid of everything | 09:05 |
| ae86-drifter_ | that way u can run kde dependant apps still | 09:05 |
| asdff | ae86-drifter1: gnome* | 09:05 |
| asdff | surely | 09:05 |
| mneptok | ae86-drifter_: the entire desktop environment just for the libraries and a few apps is a bit extreme | 09:05 |
| titan_ark | ae86-drifter_: its too much clutter | 09:05 |
| ae86-drifter_ | asdff, i use lxde | 09:05 |
| asdff | ae86-drifter1: how is that like? I've messed around with awesome, openbox, gnome and xfce | 09:06 |
| ae86-drifter_ | titan_ark, oh ok well its up to u, i just have it there for redundancy | 09:06 |
| titan_ark | ae86-drifter_: okay | 09:06 |
| ae86-drifter_ | asdff, its kind of similar to xfce | 09:06 |
| titan_ark | so if i do what i was asking then i should have like a new install of gnime-ubuntu right?> | 09:06 |
| asdff | ae86-drifter1: ah ok. and whilst I find gnome too slow, I still use the gnome-panel lol. solely for the weather panel add on | 09:07 |
| ZykoticK9 | asdff, do you know that your native resolution is set to? like 1280x1024? | 09:07 |
| ae86-drifter_ | asdff, that would be loading gnome libs lol.. | 09:07 |
| jazz | i think i may have found my answer, | 09:07 |
| z3r0 | , | 09:07 |
| jazz | is this working right? | 09:08 |
| asdff | ZykoticK9: 1440 x 990 methinks or 900 or something. It's like 16:10 | 09:08 |
| ZykoticK9 | asdff, actually don't worry about it - we'll try auto first | 09:08 |
| ae86-drifter_ | i lost my encrption key for my home folder any ideas? lol | 09:08 |
| asdff | ae86-drifter1: I still have gnome installed, also if I run a full gnome session xorg memory leaks on me | 09:08 |
| asdff | ZykoticK9: kk | 09:08 |
| ZykoticK9 | asdff, http://paste.ubuntu.com/370803/ try that - i'll be right back, gotta take the dog out | 09:08 |
| ae86-drifter_ | asdff, oh ok, yeah lxde/xfce are the best imo | 09:09 |
| ZykoticK9 | asdff, restart GDM after you make the change | 09:09 |
| asdff | ah | 09:09 |
| asdff | ZykoticK9: thanks for your help man | 09:09 |
| ae86-drifter_ | asdff, i still use gnome apps when i have to on lxde | 09:09 |

| ZykoticK9 | asdff, this is going to log you out "sudo service gdm restart" | 09:14 |
| asdff | kk brb then ;} | 09:14 |
| xhhj | Good evening, gentlemen! | 09:14 |
| asdff | well my screen is back to normal and pretty again :3 | 09:15 |
| asdff | ZykoticK9: so if I try and run starcraft it should work :S what about the ctrl alt bussiness? | 09:15 |
| ZykoticK9 | asdff, fire up StarCraft and see how we're doing | 09:15 |
| asdff | :3 cheers man brb | 09:15 |
| asdff | ZykoticK9: unfortunately it is still cutting out the bottom of the game :( Also ctrl+alt+f7/f8 doesn't do anything (I'm not sure if that is relevant). | 09:17 |
| asdff | well it does do something.. just doesn't switch 'screens' | 09:17 |
| chetnick | Where can i get the source code of apt utillity? | 09:18 |
| asdff | sigh it switches screens it just isn't a GUI screen it's a normal TTY screen* sorry about the lack of clarity | 09:18 |
| ZykoticK9 | asdff, the f7/f8 doesn't apply to what we're trying - is there any resolution selection in the game? like is it running at 640x480, as all these instructions are based on that resolution | 09:18 |
| llutz | chetnick: sudo apt-get source apt | 09:19 |
| asdff | ZykoticK9: nah unfortunately there is no in game resolution selection. I am fairly sure it is meant to be 640x480, I will google it though. Also there is allegedly a shortcut in wine 'ctrl +' which allows you to change the size, but it doesn't work for me. | 09:20 |
| asdff | ZykoticK9: yeah SC's native resolution is 640x480 | 09:20 |
| chetnick | llutz: thanks, the location of pulled source will be at /usr/src ? | 09:20 |

| ZykoticK9 | asdff, ya everything pointed to that | 09:20 |

| chetnick | ok thanks man. | 09:20 |

| yorick | the crashes happen like this: every application shuts down, usually in the order I started them, until the system hangs | 09:21 |
| yorick | and then when I reboot, it is perfectly fine | 09:21 |
| yorick | this usually happens about 5 minutes after bootup | 09:21 |

| Antalya | hello people | 09:23 |
| ventz | I am trying to setup ubuntu as an ldap server. I followed the community page, and I configured it correctly, but it seems that slapd is listening only on 127.0.0.1, instead of all ips (0.0.0.0). Anyone know why? | 09:23 |
| coz_ | Antalya, welcome | 09:24 |
| ZykoticK9 | asdff, that's certainly unrelated to xorg stuff? just for testing edit the xorg "metamodes" to just "metamodes" "640x480" and restart x again (you should have only 640x480 resolution i'm affraid, but i want to see if the game still gets cutoff) | 09:24 |
| yorick | Yorvik: grrr... | 09:24 |
| asdff | ZykoticK9: yeah it is, sometimes my sound just screws up and a restart of the session fixes it. Didn't mean for you to concern yourself :P. And that's ok I'll try that. | 09:24 |
| yorick | llutz: hmm...how would thermal issues affect this then? | 09:25 |

| titan_ark | what would be a good irc client? xchat is pathetic | 10:43 |
| Myrtti | titan_ark: matter of preference, I've always liked irssi but it's not for everyone | 10:43 |
| lxsysweb | i seccond that on irssi | 10:43 |
| titan_ark | Myrtti, hmmmm shall try. i cant seem to be clearing up space on my hdd. | 10:44 |
| titan_ark | also how can i set up to get the terminal from the panel diretly? | 10:45 |
| titan_ark | accessing from accessories is painful | 10:45 |
| Myrtti | titan_ark: have you cleared up your package cache? you could try that | 10:45 |
| Myrtti | titan_ark: sudo apt-get clean | 10:45 |
| reto` | emacs ERC ftw | 10:45 |
| titan_ark | Myrtti, tried it, gives back no response | 10:45 |
| Myrtti | titan_ark: how about apt-get autoremove | 10:46 |
| Myrtti | titan_ark: though, it might be a bit on the dangerous side | 10:46 |
| mrpink57 | irssi is pretty solid, once you get the hang of it, it can be reconfigured in no time. Plus with the use of scripts... | 10:46 |
| titan_ark | Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done | 10:47 |
| titan_ark | this is what it gives me | 10:47 |
| mrpink57 | titan_ark: you could output the command to a file and pastebin it | 10:47 |
| titan_ark | mrpink57, could u please tell me how to output it? | 10:48 |
| mrpink57 | what is the command | 10:48 |
| titan_ark | Myrtti, irssi is not a GUI? | 10:48 |
| Myrtti | titan_ark: no. | 10:49 |
| Myrtti | titan_ark: commandline, but very, very flexible | 10:49 |
| titan_ark | Myrtti, lol its not for me then :D | 10:49 |
| mrpink57 | its a modular cli client combine it with screen or tmux and you've got a pro irc | 10:49 |
| titan_ark | Myrtti, i am not very comfortable with CLI | 10:49 |
| mrpink57 | titan_ark: what is the command you are using so I can give the example | 10:49 |
| titan_ark | mrpink57, for autoclean | 10:50 |
| mrpink57 | titan_ark: sudo apt-get autoclean > autoclean.txt | 10:50 |
| mrpink57 | titan_ark: should put a txt file in your home folder | 10:50 |
| titan_ark | mrpink57, yes it does. just 3 lines :) | 10:51 |

| rea | my problem is so weird, why the command python is working if /usr/bin/python is removed ? | 11:04 |
| rww | titan_ark: you'd need to add it to your panel with the right-click -> Add to Panel... option. I forget what it's called in there. You might need to restart GNOME to get it to show up. | 11:04 |
| rww | titan_ark: (you can probably tell I haven't used it in a while) | 11:04 |

| cmp | mrpink57, ok - i did | 11:06 |
| titan_ark | rww, i added it but its not searchable. its like the regular applications menu | 11:06 |
| geirha | rea: Right, so you have a python binary in /usr/local/bin which takes precednece, since /usr/local/bin comes before /usr/bin in PATH | 11:06 |

| cmp | mrpink57, it says - direct rendering :yes | 11:07 |

| erUSUL | rea: python is not installed there. what is looking for it there? | 11:35 |
| wejick | zerozillion, its okey | 11:35 |
| Seveas | rea, does /usr/local/bin/python2.6 exist? And why are you installing python manually into /usr/local anyway? | 11:36 |

| Geli_ | yes it's usb | 11:38 |
| zilkomaa | They are kinda old in amd site, thinking are those needed because ubuntu is so new.. | 11:38 |
| cmp | and really i dont know why people here are trying to make it more complicated for the beginners ...is it a trial of showing how much professionals you are , or trial to make the others feel stupid. in case if you think you are here to teach and support - then you need to know that teaching and supporting is not this way - you need to make it easy - simple and go with the people who have no experience step by step | 11:38 |
| rea | erUSUL, => /usr/bin/python | 11:39 |

| Geli_ | no | 11:42 |
| Geli_ | it shows only just the port | 11:42 |
| Geli_ | what it uses | 11:42 |
| erUSUL | rea: then there is no way on earth to get that error running just "python" on a terminal | 11:42 |
| rea | <Seveas> rea, rm /usr/local/bin/python => after that ? | 11:43 |

| Ujjain | Why does Ubuntu by default link to 32-bits at download? | 11:45 |
| reto` | echo_: depends on the coding of the site... | 11:45 |
| erUSUL | Ujjain: explain | 11:45 |
| reto` | echo_: using firefox? | 11:46 |
| echo_ | reto`, it was the same site. yes, firefox | 11:46 |
| Ujjain | Ok, I have 64-bits now :) | 11:46 |
| Ujjain | I should have clicked Alternative download options, including Ubuntu installer for Windows :-P | 11:46 |
| ersoy | I think port forwarding, let me check | 11:46 |
| rea | which python | 11:46 |
| echo_ | reto`, can it be a problem to paste characters into the webform instead of entering them right in there? | 11:46 |
| rww | Ujjain: because 32-bit works on both 32-bit and 64-bit computers, so it's a good safe bet for people who don't know the difference | 11:46 |
| erUSUL | Ujjain: ah you mean in the website ? 32 bit is guarantead to work in all machines | 11:46 |
| reto` | echo_: yes that might also be a problem... | 11:47 |
| rea | Seveas, thx !!! | 11:47 |
| titan_ark | Myrtti, rww , sorry for taking names. could you please help me set up power management. i hope i am not damaging my battery. some packages are installed but i cant get the indicator on | 11:47 |
| rww | titan_ark: nope, I'm about to go to sleep | 11:48 |
| reto` | echo_: maybe check that pasting/entering is the issue and then we can analyse it further | 11:48 |
| rww | good luck, though :) | 11:48 |
| timedout | I have UNR 9.10 ISO in usb-drive. I have installed UNR 9.04 IMG to the laptop, but that does not recognize eth or wlan. So I try to upgrade UNR 9.04 -> 9.10 by just using ISO. But I can't get that ISO to boot from usb, so is there away to launch upgrade from UNR 9.04? | 11:48 |
| zerozillion | ok another thing... is there any webcam-to-http stream app with a graphical interface? i cant get mjpg-streamer to run | 11:48 |
| daniesahne | can anyone help me? why does the screensaver come up if i choose hibernate from the menu | 11:48 |
| titan_ark | rww, okay | 11:49 |
| ersoy | erUSUL, Seveas, in local (sshd) and remote port (sshd (ssh tunneling)) port may be the same now | 11:49 |
| echo_ | reto`, so when pasting a character, the bytes the site uses to encode the character where i copied it from is used, and it might be unsuitable to the site i enter it in the form? | 11:50 |
| timedout | Why there is no IMG of UNR 9.10? | 11:50 |
| echo_ | reto`, ok i will test this | 11:50 |

| Ujjain | Can you install Ubuntu via network if you only have a CentOS insatller cdrom? | 11:59 |
| Manii | !mini | 12:00 |
| ubottu | The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 12:00 |
| hendry | Ujjain: sign, don't want to convert | 12:00 |

| gabriel_ | right now i have a bootable ubuntu 64 bit on the stick. will it due? | 12:20 |
| gabriel_ | xray7224: i mean maybe i can just start from that usb stick and do some magic? | 12:21 |
| xray7224 | should do maybe there is something that will do it from inside windows | 12:21 |
| xray7224 | gabriel_, not sure, i always have a spare archlinux disk that have tools to do it on the grub for it but i don't suppose you do | 12:21 |
| gabriel_ | xray7224: well not if it needs to read from my linux partition, as it uses ext4 file system... seems it's not supported in windows, unlike ext3. | 12:21 |
| xray7224 | gabriel_, try that link i posted | 12:22 |
| gabriel_ | xray7224: but if i boot from the usb stick, i can do something to restore grub, right? Question is, what. | 12:22 |
| lightbricko | Does both virtualbox and vmware support seamless mode? | 12:22 |
| gabriel_ | xray7224: ok | 12:22 |
| gabriel_ | lightbricko: that i know of, yes | 12:23 |
| xray7224 | gabriel_, http://www.supergrubdisk.org/wiki/AutoSuperGrubDisk <-- should help you if you get stuck | 12:23 |
| lightbricko | gabriel_: ok thanks. Do you have any idea which one is "best"? I just want to run a few windows apps such as Photoshop etc. as simply as possible. | 12:23 |
| gabriel_ | xray7224: oh it's a windows program huh | 12:24 |
| cvillamarm | mm | 12:24 |
| cvillamarm | jj | 12:24 |
| xray7224 | you can use unetbootin in linux too | 12:24 |
| gabriel_ | lightbricko: not really sure. for me, virtualbox worked much better. But perhaps my computer was just a fit f* up at the time, who knows :) | 12:24 |
| xray7224 | and put it on your pendrive before hand | 12:24 |
| lightbricko | gabriel_: ok, thx. | 12:25 |

| fumbles | you have to reinstall grub it you put windows after linux | 13:16 |
| manumar | install virtualbox | 13:16 |
| manumar | from SUN | 13:17 |
| airtonix | Ose, 1) directory in question is part of a real windows isntall ? 2) if so did you shut windows down properly 3) are you looking at the directory in nautilus? | 13:17 |

| airtonix | Chiefhowhow, sounds like your cdrom drive is a bit unreliable | 13:18 |
| xiong | Um, airtonix, I know there are many tools. Perhaps it's naive of me to ask if any real human has a particularly good feel about any of them? | 13:18 |
| Chiefhowhow | okay | 13:18 |
| Ose | airtonix: 1 yes, 2 I believe so, 3 yes | 13:18 |

| airtonix | Ose, so nautilus shows the directory as empty ? are you sure the drive is mounted properly? ie can you see other directories containing the files you expect them to have ? | 13:19 |
| aaronfc | Hello!, i've problems with my graphic card "Ati Radeon HD 4650" (r700 chipset) ¿ can anyone help me ? Please ¿ | 13:19 |
| fumbles | xiong: rsync is just a fast file copy command | 13:20 |
| Ose | apparently windows had made two program files folders, one english and one norwegian -.- | 13:20 |
| fumbles | that can produce incremental backups very easy-meant for external hardrives or over a network but it should work for a dvd as well | 13:20 |
| xiong | fumbles, I want a utility that has more features. I want to be able to preview the operation before I burn; see how many files I'm moving as well as how many bytes; that sort of thing. | 13:20 |
| fumbles | xiong: ^ | 13:20 |
| airtonix | Ose, oh gee that windows! gosh what a joker :) | 13:20 |
| Ose | :P | 13:21 |
| fumbles | baobab lets you view specifically every amount of space your file system is taking up..you can do the math from there for what you're backing up | 13:21 |

| fumbles | more specific please | 13:21 |
| xiong | fumbles, dkopp is supposed to do incrementals but I don't see how, unless it's doing an incremental onto the same media on which it did the full. I think that's bad practice; once a disc is burnt, it's burnt. | 13:21 |

| fumbles | you can add it in /etc/fstab to automount if you like | 13:27 |

| lxsysweb | lol ubottu is awesome | 13:30 |
| airtonix | xiong, if you can get it to sort the backups in separate volumes when a size threshold is reached, then creating ISOs from a set of files is trivial | 13:30 |
| xiong | Here's my objection to dkopp: It has a hard limit of 200,000 files but you don't find out you've exceeded this until the app crashes. | 13:30 |

| xiong | airtonix, I understand. This is a matter of mental model. I'm sure, in these modern times, I can just throw in a DVD and use Nautilus to drop files into it until it's full. Then I keep track with pencil and paper what I've copied and what not. | 13:31 |
| SIrRedTooth | My problem still has not been solved | 13:31 |
| airtonix | xiong, sure but i meant that you can actually script the files > iso stage | 13:32 |
| erUSUL | SIrRedTooth: did you read the wiki page tha we pointed you to (twice) ? | 13:32 |
| xiong | Has anyone here had experience with Retrospect (for the Mac)? This is my model of a good backup utility, although it suffers from the drawback of storing files in a compressed, proprietary format. | 13:32 |

| xiong | atlef, BackInTime appears more oriented toward the HD-to-HD automatic backup, rather than the manual DVD burning. | 13:35 |

| jolaren | Why doesnt this work?? "echo '/usr/local/bin/noip2' >> /etc/rc.local | 13:36 |
| airtonix | xiong, so you'd be happy with simplebackupsuite if it accomodated dvd/cd as a destination ? | 13:36 |
| capron | jolaren, I think noip2 is a binary and no script | 13:37 |
| erUSUL | jolaren: permision issues? | 13:37 |
| jrib | jolaren: it does work, but you probably don't have permissions to change /etc/rc.local. Anyway though, that's not the right way. If you install noip2 from the repositories it should start when you boot automatically | 13:37 |
| Dr_Willis | jolaren: it needs to be done as root. | 13:37 |

| cmp | how to install xfce ? | 13:37 |
| erUSUL | jolaren: sudo sh -c "echo '/usr/local/bin/noip2' >> /etc/rc.local" | 13:37 |
| xiong | airtonix, I really think the best way for me to express myself is by pointing to Retrospect: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retrospect_%28software%29 | 13:38 |
| hipe | with a name like 'visudo', why is it so hard to get it to use 'vi' as the editor? `select-editor` does not present it as an option | 13:38 |
| Dr_Willis | jolaren: commands in rc.local need to be BEFOR the last exit(0) statement in rc.local also | 13:38 |

| erUSUL | jolaren: also Dr_Willis is right | 13:38 |
| xiong | I used Retrospect on my OS 9 Macs for years and except for the proprietary format, it worked very very well. | 13:38 |
| cmp | bazhang, how can i do it ..... | 13:38 |
| erUSUL | jolaren: you have to add them before the "exit 0" so a echo >> wont do | 13:39 |
| jolaren | Any tips on how to skip kernel boot ? Or I mean the "chose kernel" dialog at bootup.. It comes along on my server | 13:39 |
| airtonix | xiong, so i assume you are not using the linux client because it doesn't do disc medium ? | 13:39 |
| bazhang | cmp, with the package manager (synaptic) or the command line | 13:39 |
| jolaren | erUSUL; I did it with cat now | 13:39 |

| xiong | I'm sorry; maybe I'm just asking too much. If you'll excuse the analogy, I'm looking for the first-class solution. I want to see what I'm doing, I want control over every aspect of the backup, and when I don't exercise that control, I want intelligent action regardless. High standards. | 13:41 |
| jolaren | erUSUL; Did not know of that funciton, thank yo | 13:41 |

| bazhang | cmp, did you use sudo? is another installation going on now or do you have synaptic still open? | 13:44 |
| xiong | airtonix, In any case, it's still the proprietary format. I used to think that was wise but now I see the light: no amount of compression or cleverness is worth anything except a straight copy format on the medium. | 13:44 |
| airtonix | xiong, this is true | 13:44 |

| Yerushalmi | Seveas: Are there no settings within ubuntu that tell me "this drive is mounted here" and it'll recognize it as mounted here at the same time as being root? | 14:11 |
| Seveas | Yerushalmi, on the new drive you will need to edit /etc/fstab. You will also need to boot from live cd the first time after removing the old disk to reinstall grub | 14:11 |

| Eremite | Napalm, caomplaing about Ubuntu hijacking my browser si not trolling. I suggest you STFU and stop making accusations that you clearly have no understanding of. | 15:54 |
| blakkheim | !stfu | Eremite | 15:54 |
| ubottu | Eremite: Acronyms or statements like noob, jfgi, stfu, or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period. | 15:54 |
| Eremite | `mOOse`, I am. Tell me how to fix it. | 15:54 |
| bazhang | Eremite, that language is not acceptable; Napalm please desist | 15:54 |
| dotter | Eremite: calm down dude | 15:54 |
| arand | Eremite: Canonical is a company, if you use ubuntu you'll have to accept it's decisions. Changing the main page is not hard.. | 15:55 |
| Eremite | dotter, I am calm. Telling people to clams down does nothing to calm them. | 15:55 |
| Napalm | aha serious chats today amirite? | 15:55 |
| hvgotcodes | how can i get back to the default graphics state? | 15:55 |
| hvgotcodes | meaning the way it was when karmic is initially installed | 15:55 |

| ubuntunewbie2 | hi , anyone know how to set up dual monitor ? | 15:55 |
| Eremite | arand, MY BROWSER IS NOT SET TO UBUNTU ONE PAGE by default. However, it forces my browser to open and to open to a page that is NOT set as the default home page. Im simply asking how to fix this blantant browser hijack. | 15:56 |
| `mOOse` | Eremite, take it up with microsoft - they started that crap long ago | 15:56 |
| Napalm | Eremite: install opera, or reinstall firefox | 15:56 |
| arand | Eremite: You mean if you click ubuntuone it opens ubuntuone in the browser? | 15:57 |
| Eremite | `mOOse`, this has nothing to do with Microsoft. Pay attention or please stop giving me suggestions. Im asking why Ubuntu has hijacked my start page, and why Ubuntu forces me to open FireFox when I start my PC when its not set to do that. Forcing the user to do ANYTHINg against their will defeats the whole purpose of Linux, non? | 15:57 |
| `mOOse` | I think you need a timeout | 15:58 |
| Eremite | arand, no, my browser automatically opens when I turn on my PC, and it openms to thje Ubuntu One page. However, its NOT set to do either of those things. This is a browser hijack. | 15:58 |
| amnay | is there a way to list lately removed files? | 15:58 |
| Napalm | Eremite: non | 15:58 |
| `mOOse` | how's that for a suggestion? | 15:58 |
| Tm_T | Eremite: have you saved your desktop session at some point? | 15:58 |
| Napalm | Eremite: the purpose of linux is not to do the will of the user only | 15:58 |
| Eremite | Tm_T, elaborate please. | 15:58 |
| Napalm | Eremite: just reinstall firefox | 15:59 |
| Eremite | Napalm, I fail to see why Ubuntu has hijacked FireFox. Cant ANYONE explain this? | 15:59 |
| Tm_T | Napalm: that won't help | 15:59 |
| arand | Eremite: probably because ubuntuone autostarts, and since it doesn't find an account, it wants to create one, disable ubuntuone autostart I think is the solution | 15:59 |
| ChogyDan | Eremite: Tm_T ah yeah, I see how that can be a problem | 15:59 |
| Eremite | Napalm, I shouldnt have to, and thats not the point. I want to know WHY it happens and how to fix it. | 15:59 |

| onaogh | is there anyway to shred/srm/wipe evolution email client trash box | 16:00 |
| Kamokow | Eremite: Does it bring ask you to login? If it does, its because it wants you to authorise it. If you /dont/ have an account, then stop having ubuntuone auto start | 16:00 |

| MaRLBoRo | Napalm, yup | 16:00 |

| ChogyDan | Eremite: Tm_T: what is the fix? rm ~/.config/gnome-session/saved-session/* | 16:01 |
| Eremite | Kamokow, it brings me to the Ubuntu one page but I fail to see how this is NOT a blantant borwser hijack. Ubuntu is forcing my browser open and it has replaced my start page (but my default page is not the Ubuntu One login screen). How do I fix this? I dont want to open FireFox when my PC starts and I surely dont need the Ubuntu One page repacing my home page. | 16:01 |
| cicloner | hi | 16:01 |
| MaRLBoRo | nope i didn't get any error...before when i was using in windows when i insert the cd it automatic playing | 16:01 |
| MaRLBoRo | but not in ubuntu | 16:01 |
| cicloner | there are some access point software under ubuntu to create a bridged point between a wired router and a wifi ? | 16:02 |
| user37 | hi | 16:02 |
| MaRLBoRo | kamokow train signal is my training video | 16:02 |
| Eremite | MaRLBoRo, put the CD in the tray, close the tray, open your file browser to the CD drive and then play the files with your choice of media player. | 16:02 |
| purplefool | MaRLBoRo, what is trainsignals? music or a program or what? | 16:03 |
| MaRLBoRo | its a video training materials | 16:03 |
| ChogyDan | cicloner: I think that is internal to the routers | 16:03 |
| Napalm | MaRLBoRo what format is the training materials in? | 16:03 |
| user37 | Anyone know a good Tutorial for Bind 9 in Ubuntu 9.10? | 16:03 |
| Napalm | alternatively, is it on a cd/dvd? | 16:03 |
| MaRLBoRo | when i explore the cd i saw and .exe files and .wvm files | 16:04 |
| Tm_T | ChogyDan: no idea, I don't use gnome | 16:04 |
| Napalm | will ubuntu's startup applications still function despite being in runlevel 2? | 16:04 |
| cicloner | ye but i think thats is posible to do a iptables enrouting manually, but i want to know if there are some sofware to do that.. | 16:04 |
| Eremite | .wmv files are the media files, MaRLBoRo. .exe files dont work on Linux without installing "Wine". | 16:04 |
| cicloner | <ChogyDan> | 16:04 |
| purplefool | MaRLBoRo, then it is a program right? with videos? do you have wine installed? | 16:04 |
| ChogyDan | Tm_T: ah, ok, I thought you were talking about a bug I know of | 16:04 |
| MaRLBoRo | nope i don't have wine installed | 16:05 |

| purplefool | MaRLBoRo, then go to applications and ubuntu software center and download it and install... | 16:05 |
| Eremite | ChogyDan, nope. There is nothing set that would do this. That is why I am calling this a textbook browser hijack. | 16:06 |

| Salival | trism, Yeah something like that | 16:09 |
| ChogyDan | Eremite: ok, well at least it is not that bug. Anyway, I don't know. It sounds more like a bug rather than "Ubuntu" did hijacked your browser | 16:09 |

| trism | Salival: screen can do it with ctrl+a H, but the output isn't really great, you would probably have better luck with the script shell | 16:10 |
| Salival | trism, the commands isnt so important tho | 16:10 |
| Eremite | ChogyDan, I agree that its very much a bug, but its also a textbook hijack. Being forced to open an app and then being forced to a website against my will is nothing short of a hijack in my opinion. | 16:10 |
| bigtom21485 | blakkheim: i installed it then i go to run it from the applications menu and nothing happens | 16:10 |
| trism | Salival: can you just tell us exactly what you want to do? because I'm not sure | 16:11 |
| anarki2004 | certain web pages won't load properly when i use firefox/chrome/whatever inside of ubuntu. the websites that won't work *will* work under windows on the same PC. Do I need to call my ISP, or is this ubuntu doing something odd? | 16:11 |

| Eremite | anarki2004, what is the error on the websites? How are they not displaying correctly? Do you have any Ad blocking software installed? That could be your problem. | 16:13 |

| Supergri1o | Someone how to recognize karmic dual header as two different desktops? here with intel he recognizes as a single area. does not give Sun Presenter Console. ( | 16:17 |
| boondoklife | Salival: You should prolly cut that up and make a script to launch the daemon that also pipes output to a file. that command looks like it will just pipe screen not the daemon | 16:18 |
| Eremite | anarki2004, that DOES sound like an ISP problem but if it works on Windows (same machine) then its most6 likely a software problem. Have you tried installing any other browsers in Ubuntu (Opera, Aurora)? Are you working from a fresh install of Ubuntu or did you just upgrade? | 16:18 |
| Salival | boondoklife, how do I make a script that will do diffrent from now? | 16:19 |

| Rush3d | lxsysweb | 16:30 |
| Rush3d | I get an error | 16:30 |
| Eremite | dinobisk, are you saying that you cant hear audio coming from your headphones? Open a terminal and type "alsa-mixer" or "alsamixer" (I forget which) and make sure that you have your mic/headphones/etc enabled and turned up. | 16:30 |
| lxsysweb_ | what is is??? | 16:30 |
| duffydack | I have a really weird issue that came out of nowhere like yesterday. I get this http://tinyurl.com/yd4tjmh (mp4 video very small). Randomly, not very often tho (I had my camera phone recording for an hour in case it happened again :) ) this like heavily interlaced effect comes over my screen for a second and back to normal.. its nothing that i`m doing at the time, wether I`m doing anytihng or not.. | 16:30 |

| Eremite | duffydack, oh, that flash wasnt a part of the video? OK, well, looks like a hardware problem. Possibly a driver problem. I cant help, sorry. | 16:33 |

| Salival | jussi01, Yeah nice | 16:35 |
| blakkheim | Lord_MuffloN^: if you want better graphics performance in linux with less trouble, yes | 16:35 |
| Lord_MuffloN^ | blakkheim: But they aren't free | 16:35 |
| Lord_MuffloN^ | the free drivers sucks balls | 16:35 |
| hvgotcodes | JLove, thats a java/tomcat/eclipse question | 16:35 |
| Eremite | duffydack, you should try using a linux Live CD and try playing the files that way. It may be a driver problem if you can get it to work on the same machine but using windows. | 16:35 |
| jussi01 | Lord_MuffloN^: lets keep it family friendly,k? | 16:35 |
| Lord_MuffloN^ | Everyone knows it, the proprietary drivers are good, but the free one sucks | 16:35 |

| Rush3d | Hmm ok frots, try updating your drivers? | 16:52 |
| trism | plumpskunk: strange | 16:52 |
| Salival | Rush3d, Make a new profile should fix that problem | 16:52 |
| Frots | Rush3d: I tried with the latest and with beta | 16:52 |
| plumpskunk | yes, it is ... | 16:52 |
| Eremite | pea[PC], there are dreamweaver alternatives. | 16:52 |
| bazhang | pea[PC], sure some have, #winehq for specific issues as well as checking the appdb | 16:52 |
| Rush3d | Frots, you could always just reinstall your operating system. | 16:52 |
| Frots | Rush3d: lol that wouldnt sovle anything | 16:52 |
| lxsysweb_ | pepee: mine's usually pretty hot (60-80Celcius) anyways, if it's been doing heavy operations its usually hotter. | 16:52 |

| plumpskunk | is there any difference between starting a program from terminal or gnomenu ? | 16:53 |

| pepee | lxsysweb_, whoa, that's dangerous | 16:53 |
| Frots | Salival: good idea | 16:53 |
| Eremite | plumpskunk, I think so but I am not sure. When I start FCEU from the menu my processor max's out to 99 or 100%, but starting from terminal it doesnt. | 16:53 |
| Xial | lxsysweb_, get some cooling on that. really. | 16:53 |
| Salival | Frots, Not really but could be a start :P | 16:53 |

| trism | plumpskunk: is it only gedit you're having problems with? does firefox work? | 16:54 |
| Ruby_Fulcrum | Good morning. Today in my server logs I found this message. Should I be concerned? I tried googling it and found no results. "operation="file_perm" pid=2166 parent=1 profile="/usr/sbin/nmbd" requested_mask="w::" denied_mask="w::" fsuid=0 ouid=0 name="/var/run/samba/namelist.debug"" | 16:54 |
| lxsysweb_ | pepee: thats about normal on my laptop.. and cool for my server | 16:54 |
| plumpskunk | tirsm: every programm ! gedit, firefox, pidgin, whatever | 16:54 |
| pepee | lxsysweb_, ahh ok | 16:54 |
| plumpskunk | openoffice | 16:54 |
| plumpskunk | it's not related to gedit, thats just an example | 16:55 |
| pepee | I think 50C is something to worry about... | 16:55 |
| Salival | Frots, gdm also got a log folder, /var/log/gdm .. check if the one you are using have one too | 16:55 |
| wash | I've got a 500 G external USB hard drive that Ubuntu 9.10 seems to have messed up in some way. I've been having problems with it for a few days, like files dissappering from it when I move from computer to computer - now it's not showing up, though sometimes I can see the device, and just get an input/output error whenever I cd into it | 16:55 |
| Eremite | Broken fan? | 16:55 |
| ircuser | wiped hard disk clean by mistake while installing ubuntu over. vista how to recover data? esp. images..some 5GB.. | 16:55 |
| lxsysweb_ | pepee: well if you're worried a fan won't hurt | 16:55 |
| Frots | Salival: I dont have gdm | 16:55 |
| pepee | thanks lxsysweb_ | 16:56 |
| Frots | Salival: the messages log doesnt have anything special | 16:56 |
| Eremite | ircuser, you cant. If you wiped a disk clean then you wiped the disc clean. | 16:56 |
| Frots | it just misses a few minutes (reboot time I think) | 16:56 |
| Salival | Frots, As I tried to say, check if whatever you are using have a similar folder | 16:56 |
| wash | Doesn't show up in gparted either. Is there any software I can use to see if it's dead or recoverable? I don't care about the data on it, I'd just like it wiped and working if possible. | 16:56 |
| Salival | Frots, In /var/log/something | 16:56 |

| Rush3d | Can anyone help me with this, when I launch firefox: (Error launching browser window:no XBL binding for browser) | 16:57 |
| ircuser | Eremite: I mean I had selected the option in ubuntu 8.10 as "use entire disk".. was the wiping clean? | 16:57 |
| ubuntu61 | I installed Chromium web brower, you know if you can install it in Italian? | 16:57 |
| Salival | Frots, And it didnt start to bug right after you deleted the login manager? | 16:57 |
| Frots | Salival: I havent deleted a login manager :s | 16:58 |
| Eremite | ircuser, if you used the entire disc then you deleted all of your old files and they are gone unless you get some very expensive recovery software that is often used by police and FBI. | 16:58 |

| Eremite | Rush3d, do you have any extensions installed in FireFox? Start FF in safe mode and then disable allk extensions untill you find the culprit. | 16:59 |
| trism | plumpskunk: ok that looks good, in System/Administration/Language Support; did you set the keyboard input method to ibus? | 16:59 |
| ircuser | Eremite: oh...isn't there anyway i can get disk whatever i can get? anyway?? | 16:59 |
| Salival | Frots, I think ubuntu comes with a login manager as default,, aren't you using ubuntu or? | 16:59 |
| Rush3d | Erem, I have no add ons, its the same when i get ubuntu. | 16:59 |
| Frots | Salival: no | 16:59 |
| plumpskunk | no i did not | 16:59 |

| bcurtiswx | how do I add friends in identi.ca ? | 17:00 |
| Rush3d | Eremite: How do I start firefox in safe mode? | 17:00 |
| Eremite | ircuser, if you installed Ubuntu over your Vista then your vista no longer exists. You do not have Windows vista anymore. You also do not have ANY of the files that were on your PC. | 17:00 |
| Salival | Frots, Okey =/ | 17:00 |
| Rush3d | How do I start firefox in safe mode? | 17:01 |

| MasterOfDisaster | what's the best way to get sound from a second X.org display? | 17:01 |
| Eremite | Rush3d, open a terminal and type: firefox -safe-mode | 17:01 |
| Rush3d | ok. | 17:01 |
| Eremite | Rush3d, make sure that there is not any other firefox process running, even if you have closed all the visible firefox windows. | 17:01 |
| ircuser | Eremite: Sorry.. I mean ... Isn't there anyway I can recover even a GB out that? It is a 241 GB .. What options I have got for now? | 17:01 |
| Rush3d | ok. | 17:01 |
| Rush3d | Wait, it says Bash: firefox-safe-mode: command not found. | 17:02 |
| MasterOfDisaster | I opened second display like this: su -c "Xorg :1" & ; DISPLAY=:1 startfluxbox | 17:02 |
| Eremite | ircuser, if you installed Ubuntu onto your only drive then you lost ALL OF THE FILES. All of them. 100% of them are deleted. You cannot recover them without very expensive software and a deep knowledge of computer science. | 17:02 |
| Rush3d | Nerver mind Eremite, I got it. | 17:02 |

| suleman | i was installing ubuntu,and while extracting files,a error message occured which asked me to see the file "wubi-9.04-rev128.log" | 17:04 |
| happyface | Rush3d: it's an integrated card. It can scan networks with ifconfig but can't get an IP, also nm-applet can't find the wireless card | 17:04 |
| bluesword1969 | http://pastebin.com/m3cf18a1f <-- trying to stop this error | 17:04 |
| Eremite | Lord_MuffloN^, you could try editing yoru Xorg config file. Thats the only suggestion I have. | 17:05 |
| Rush3d | Hmm, if you were running windows xp i could help. | 17:05 |
| Lord_MuffloN^ | Eremite: I've never edited screen size in xorg config | 17:05 |
| trism | plumpskunk: my only guess is that it is working on the command line because the GTK_IM_MODULE environment variable is set correctly, but when launched directly from gnome, it is ignoring them for some reason...thought maybe setting ibus in Language Support would help (that's how it is set up for me), not really sure what else to try | 17:05 |
| MasterOfDisaster | I opened a second display like this: su -c "Xorg :1" & ; DISPLAY=:1 startfluxbox - When I launch mplayer, the sound can only be heard when switching to :0, but not on :1. How can I get sound from multiple Xorg displays? Use a systemwide pulseaudio instance? | 17:05 |

| Lord_MuffloN^ | Eremite: I'm not saying it won't fix it, but I do say I don't have the slightest clue how to edit the screen size in Xorg | 17:06 |
| suleman | i was installing ubuntu,and while extracting files,a error message occured which asked me to see the file "wubi-9.04-rev128.log" | 17:06 |

| Eremite | Lord_MuffloN^, this will reset your driver to default settings. Sunds like that's what you need. I could be wrong. | 17:10 |
| DavidJHeinrich | and also, when trying minor updates (not to 9.10), it gives me some crap about needing to insert CD for Ubuntu 10.04 LTS?? I did do live CD boot with 10.04 LTS, but shouldn't have any effect | 17:10 |

| erUSUL | mintux: man page --> tar --strip-components=1 -xvf file.tar.gz | 17:27 |
| bazhang | CLR-200, you mean for data storage or to start up with | 17:27 |

| ronnn | WHEn you have time go to HEAVENTRUTH.ORG :) | 17:27 |
| Cybodog | what would happen if I rip out apparmor? | 17:27 |
| bazhang | CLR-200, you could do that , though unetbootin is incredibly simple to set up and use | 17:27 |
| cmp | blakkheim, i didnt ask you to tell me what you think - i asked you and it was to help me by guiding not by showing off your knowlage | 17:27 |
| blakkheim | cmp: what i meant was that if your graphics card wasn't working, your screen would possibly be flickering or have a messed up resolution or have display artifacts. the fact that you haven't complained about anything like that makes it likely that you aren't having graphics issues | 17:27 |
| suleman | reto`, looks like it is working | 17:27 |
| CLR-200 | or maybe if someone have a link for a script | 17:27 |
| suleman | reto`, i have extracted the files | 17:27 |
| bazhang | CLR-200, what system are you currently on | 17:28 |
| CLR-200 | unetbootin is a binary for linux? | 17:28 |
| blakkheim | CLR-200: yes | 17:28 |
| CLR-200 | kucky | 17:28 |
| Flamekebab | Any ideas why my Belkin PCMCIA wireless card is showing up as "unclaimed" and doesn't have a device name any more? (ralink rt2500 chipset) | 17:28 |
| bazhang | CLR-200, for windows as well if you are on windows | 17:28 |
| CLR-200 | or kuky, is a ubuntu derivate | 17:28 |
| cmp | and you ubottu , dont tell me what you see - you should see first the way how you suggest your help | 17:28 |
| blakkheim | cmp: you're talking to a bot, bro :( | 17:28 |
| bazhang | CLR-200, you can use it to make a usb startup disk / installer for most linux distros from windows and linux | 17:29 |
| Guest49124 | does any 1 know how to stop my screen from moving to the side onto nothing | 17:29 |
| CLR-200 | ok thanks really much bazhang | 17:29 |
| cmp | blakkheim, so what was the problem if you could answer so simply like this --- without being cold answer | 17:29 |
| CLR-200 | i will look for that right now | 17:29 |
| CLR-200 | ;) | 17:29 |
| da78 | Hello all, have someone UNR karmic on a eeepc 701? During the live mode the netbook-launcher shows the applications in up to 3 columns after the installation in 2 columns with some overlays.. | 17:30 |
| Cybodog | dang cmp, take the advise or don't | 17:30 |
| bazhang | CLR-200, not sure about kucky/kuky, you should check their forums; unetbootin is in the Ubuntu repos as well as at their sourceforge page | 17:30 |
| blakkheim | cmp: with the way you behave, you're lucky anyone has helped you at all. no one is paid to help people here, we do it in our free time. | 17:30 |
| cmp | blakkheim, so because you are not getting paid, then you dont care about guiding in easy or difficult way ? | 17:31 |
| CLR-200 | ok it's kuki Linux what i'm using, sorry but i'm itlaian, the traslation in italian for kuki is biscottino | 17:31 |
| cmp | blakkheim, do you think iam happy when i get here to ask for help - | 17:32 |
| blakkheim | cmp: i think you should just drop it now | 17:32 |
| CLR-200 | and is build up over ubuntu | 17:32 |
| Myrtti | cmp: the definition of "working fine" is a bit wide, there's several ways of it working fine but not in a satisfactory way | 17:32 |
| CLR-200 | not the last stable one, 9.10 | 17:32 |
| CLR-200 | or is the 9.04.. however | 17:32 |
| CLR-200 | it should run | 17:32 |
| CLR-200 | ;) | 17:32 |
| bazhang | CLR-200, okay, well you should check there forums for support as Ubuntu is supported here | 17:32 |
| Rush3d | You guys, How can I install java on my computer? | 17:32 |
| Myrtti | CLR-200: we support only Ubuntu here, not other distros based or built on it. | 17:32 |
| CLR-200 | thanks bazhang | 17:32 |
| Myrtti | !java | Rush3d | 17:33 |
| ubottu | Rush3d: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java products search for sun-java6 -packages from the !Multiverse repository | 17:33 |
| suleman | reto`, halo | 17:33 |
| suleman | reto`, it didnt work again | 17:33 |
| Rush3d | ok. | 17:33 |
| CLR-200 | ok Myrtti thanks for the fix | 17:33 |
| DavidJHeinrich | thinking of upgrading to 9.10. i'm using Catalyst drivers for ATI 4670 and ave Skype...might i run into any problems? | 17:33 |
| ikonia | DavidJHeinrich: poor support for ati ? | 17:33 |
| reto` | suleman: same error? | 17:34 |
| suleman | ya | 17:34 |
| suleman | reto`, but it worked a little bit | 17:34 |
| suleman | reto`, but again permission denied | 17:34 |
| cmp | blakkheim, every time i come here i know that i will have a trouble with some body - do you know why ? coz every time i ask for help - people here think that i their experience should be transfared to the other by default ...as if this is the normal life - and people should understand it - what about the people who need to learn - HAVE you Walked once you came to this life from the first moment ---- help should be taking a hand - and go step by step | 17:34 |
| suleman | reto`, how did i installed it before,cant remember | 17:34 |
| reto` | suleman: it's probably an ntfs permission issue... or UAC related | 17:35 |
| suleman | reto`, dnt knw | 17:35 |
| DavidJHeinrich | ikonia: what do you mean? when I upgrade, is my graphics gonna get borked? | 17:35 |
| suleman | reto`, wat can b done | 17:35 |
| Flamekebab | cmp, it sounds more like you have trouble here every time because you've got a chip on your shoulder. | 17:35 |
| Rush3d | Does anyone know how to install Java on Ubuntu? | 17:35 |
| CLR-200 | seems it works | 17:35 |
| ikonia | DavidJHeinrich: possible, the ati packages are very very fussy | 17:35 |
| blakkheim | Rush3d: someone just answered that for you | 17:35 |
| Flamekebab | Anyway, anyone with any experience dealing with ralink PCMCIA cards? | 17:35 |
| CLR-200 | just add the chmod +x | 17:35 |
| Rush3d | Blakk, it didnt work | 17:35 |

| ubottu | Rush3d, please see my private message | 17:35 |
| ikonia | !java > Rush3d | 17:35 |
| blakkheim | Rush3d: "it didn't work" doesn't give us much to go by | 17:36 |
| CLR-200 | to the bin file and it run now i'm testing if it works | 17:36 |
| DavidJHeinrich | arg | 17:36 |
| Myrtti | cmp: can you move on? your question was so wide there is no correct answer to it, other than the one blakkheim gave you. there is no way of telling if your graphics "work fine" if you don't supply us with more information. Do you suspect it's not? | 17:36 |
| sdsd | how do i share folders between 2x ubuntu computers? both are 9.10 ? | 17:36 |
| Flamekebab | Mine used to work with older versions of Ubuntu out of the box, but now it doesn't get recognised at all. I think I may need someone to walk me through what to check to see if it can be fixed | 17:36 |
| Rush3d | Blakk , I typed sudo update-java-alternatives -l in terminal | 17:36 |
| DavidJHeinrich | ikonia: is there a way to be able to downgrade back if things don't work, like rollback? | 17:36 |
| Rush3d | And it did not work. | 17:36 |
| ikonia | DavidJHeinrich: no | 17:36 |

| ikonia | Rush3d: run it as a binary file | 17:39 |
| ikonia | Rush3d: bin = binary | 17:39 |
| Ashfire908 | ikonia: I was looking for a complete list of all disc, not a completely spread out fragmented list. | 17:40 |
| Rush3d | What program should i open it with? Bless? | 17:40 |
| blakkheim | Rush3d: install it from the repositories | 17:40 |

| CLR-200 | bazhang, it works, tahnks again for the help! XD | 17:50 |
| Ruby_Fulcrum | Bennage: You may have to change the default boot order in your bios to the usb stick. Or there is often a key to press to select an alternate boot device. | 17:51 |
| ZykoticK9 | joel___, FYI vi or vim is CERTAINLY a text editor | 17:51 |
| Bennage | done that | 17:51 |
| CLR-200 | bye bye | 17:51 |
| Bennage | no luck :/ | 17:51 |

| bazhang | Bennage, never knew about that Mac method, I have had issues both with usb-creator and unetbootin in the past though, so it might take more than the single try (it certainly has here) | 17:52 |
| erUSUL | treats-home: run "hostname" | 17:52 |

| ikonia | KarmaJones: what application are you deleting it in | 18:07 |
| blakkheim | KarmaJones: depends on how you deleted it | 18:07 |
| erUSUL | KarmaJones: when you delete from removable devices. each of them has its own trash can | 18:07 |
| reto` | or use rm... no need to worry about trash ;) | 18:08 |
| KarmaJones | ikonia, blakkheim, erUSUL, just regular delete, using the keyboard, from the computer harddrive (not removable drives) | 18:08 |
| ikonia | KarmaJones: what application are you deleting in | 18:09 |
| KarmaJones | ikonia no application, just from the desktop and folders | 18:09 |
| Flamekebab | KarmaJones, so nautilus? | 18:09 |
| Zuz|Kubuntu | can anyone help me with a partition problem? I mounted it but still says its not accessible | 18:10 |
| ikonia | KarmaJones: to delete from "folders" you must be using an application, such as nautilus | 18:10 |
| KarmaJones | flamekebab, ikonia ok yeah Nautilus | 18:10 |
| ikonia | KarmaJones: how are you launching nautilus ? | 18:10 |
| llutz | Zuz|Kubuntu: what filesystem? | 18:10 |
| Flamekebab | I'm trying to resist the urge to repeatedly ask if anyone speaks Spanish.. | 18:10 |
| matthew_ | zuz why not try wubi | 18:11 |
| Flamekebab | Anyway, if my ralink rt2500 wireless card is showing up as unclaimed and doesn't have a device name in /dev what should I do? | 18:11 |
| Zuz|Kubuntu | llutz: ext3 | 18:11 |
| llutz | Zuz|Kubuntu: use chown/chmod to adjust permissions | 18:12 |
| matthew_ | for some weird reason ubuntu wont accept the passwords for any of my routers | 18:12 |
| unr3a1 | reto`, alright, thanks. | 18:12 |
| Zuz|Kubuntu | !help chmod | 18:12 |
| Zuz|Kubuntu | hmmm | 18:12 |
| matthew_ | any 1 know of any fixes for it not accepting my wireless passwords? | 18:13 |
| llutz | Zuz|Kubuntu: "man chmod" "man chown" | 18:13 |
| Zuz|Kubuntu | let me try that ill google it | 18:13 |
| reto` | unr3a1: found something then? | 18:13 |
| KarmaJones | ikonia I'm not sure it's nautilus, I'm just deleting item from the Ubuntu desktop by pressing delete on the keyboard...(regular old delete.) I think the problem comes from the fact that I changed the language in Ubuntu from French to English in the folder got mixed up in the name switch.. | 18:13 |
| matthew_ | zuz kubuntu why not try wubi | 18:13 |
| llutz | Zuz|Kubuntu: where is it mounted to, what user/group needs access? | 18:13 |
| Flamekebab | Zuz|Kubuntu, I usually just do sudo chmod -R 0777 /media/folder | 18:13 |
| ikonia | KarmaJones: the language has nothing to do with it | 18:13 |
| KarmaJones | ikonia ok | 18:13 |
| matthew_ | so any ideas for my router | 18:14 |

When you stop moving it, the controls supposed to go down slowly. in my case, when they go down - the whole movie gets interrupted by blinking... blank...blinking blank blinking intrerruption. Is that a know issue? | 18:17 |

| ZykoticK9 | pingun789, i've seen the same thing on my system -- that's why i don't use the mplayer GUIs | 18:18 |
| reto` | CryptIce7: just set the adapter to dhcp... you've set a static address now, or not? | 18:18 |
| Flamekebab | Although in this case it sounds like chmod wouldn't be the issue, as far as I understand it it's for mounted stuff | 18:18 |
| Zuz|Kubuntu | llutz when I do that it just goes to the other line | 18:18 |
| Zuz|Kubuntu | llutz doesnt seem like there was any action | 18:18 |
| llutz | Zuz|Kubuntu: so it isn't mounted at all | 18:18 |

| KarmaJones | ikonia yeah I think you're right | 18:25 |
| joel___ | What is the command to open a .gz file? | 18:25 |
| reto` | CryptIce7: well that's certainly a special case... I don't think network manager can do that... having interfaces without ip addresses or dhcp... but you said you can remove it with a command... why not just run that automatically after booting | 18:25 |

| ikonia | tomsdale: how are you checking the blkid if it won't boot ? | 18:26 |
| erUSUL | joel___: but easier is to just right click on it and choose extract here | 18:26 |
| J_C | tomsdale: what's the message at bootup? | 18:27 |
| tomsdale | ikonia: it boots into recovery mode fine but not further - when i boot normally it says waiting for device ,,, and it just times out. | 18:27 |
| ikonia | tomsdale: what device ? | 18:27 |
| erUSUL | joel___: tar is used when it is a .tar.gz file or .tgz | 18:27 |
| tomsdale | let me get there - im in recovery mode now. | 18:27 |

| pingun789 | ZykoticK9 there's gotta be, isn't there? i though mplayer is really popular, and in my case this is quite a big problem.. | 18:28 |
| tomsdale | its like the problem I had on ubuntu 9.10 with the new version of grub - but this is 9.04 so I dont understand | 18:28 |
| ivansmo | when I start nautilus and try to click on network it says : Couldn't display "network:///". | 18:28 |
| ikonia | tomsdale: still not telling us the problem..... | 18:28 |
| ZykoticK9 | pingun789, well personally i don't have ANY suggestions for you - I wish you the best of luck trying to fix it - and if you do happen to find a fix, lot me know. | 18:28 |
| tomsdale | J_C one or more of the mounts listed in fstab cannot yet be mounted (ESC for recovery shell) | 18:29 |

| tomsdale | ikonia: ok, im in fstab - it appears to be correct | 18:30 |
| welshboykev | oww ok | 18:31 |
| welshboykev | i sort of got you | 18:31 |
| ikonia | tomsdale: comment them out, one at a time and find out which one it "thinks" has a problem | 18:31 |
| ZykoticK9 | pingun789, well i have some good news for you! with gnome-mplayer under lucid it's not flickering the movie! | 18:31 |
| welshboykev | so you can install it all for them | 18:31 |
| tomsdale | I see, ikonia. let me try | 18:31 |
| J_C | tomsdale: like ikonia says, each drive/partition should be labelled, like sda1, sda2 etc. do "fsck /dev/sda?" and answer the questions "y" | 18:31 |

| J_C | or like ikonia says, comment out one at a time | 18:32 |

| === sdx24 is now known as sdx23 | ||

| zamba | ikonia: you told me about as much as i already know :) | 18:33 |
| ikonia | zamba: so what's the problem then ? | 18:33 |

| * welshboykev cry's ... im lost | 18:39 | |
| reto` | bluebaron: try pinging with the ip address | 18:39 |
| ikonia | zamba: first all is what hosts you're authorized on, second all is what commands you're allowed on the authorized hosts | 18:40 |
| ikonia | bullgard: no idea the classes off the top of my head | 18:40 |
| binMonkey | i'm installing the latest nethack and i don't understand how to extract the tar from / so that it loads all the files into /usr/games. how do i do it? | 18:40 |
| zamba | ikonia: and third "ALL"? | 18:40 |
| unr3a1 | reto`, the weird thing about my freezing, is that it freezes at the white ubuntu logo on startup, unless, I boot from the live CD first, then reboot. | 18:40 |
| herbero | I am having trouble updating libqt4-dev because (I think) of my version of x, or possibly my nividia drivers (geforce 7280). Does anyone know which packages are necessary to get this running? SOme of my programs gui's are missing some stuff | 18:40 |
| KarmaJones | J_C ok I got it.....well the folder reappered on it's own meanwhile, thanks anyways | 18:40 |

| rootpower | need some help with configuring my broadcom bcm4312 wireless adapter | 18:40 |
| J_C | good | 18:41 |
| herbero | but I tried updating to no avail | 18:41 |
| reto` | unr3a1: oh... it doesn't get to X even? | 18:41 |
| herbero | and I am now looking at nvidia kernel modules | 18:41 |
| llutz | zamba: it's like wildcards for each of the 4 aliase-fields | 18:41 |
| welshboykev | wow sooooo many people wanting help in here i think ill shut up lol | 18:41 |
| Manii | Is there a way to make AWN not have all the icons centered? | 18:41 |
| herbero | but not sure which to go for | 18:41 |
| ikonia | zamba: there should only be two | 18:41 |
| J_C | throw something in the trash, right click the icon and see if you can empty it | 18:41 |
| zamba | root ALL = (ALL) ALL | 18:41 |
| zamba | %wheel ALL = (ALL) ALL | 18:41 |
| ikonia | zamba: that's two | 18:41 |
| zamba | that's what mentioned in the man page | 18:41 |
| zamba | that's three | 18:41 |
| ikonia | zamba: no, the second is a response to ALL = | 18:41 |
| zamba | i definitely read three "ALL" there | 18:41 |
| unr3a1 | reto`, ya, I dont get to X server. thats MY freezing issue. I have a friend who freezes once he is in X | 18:42 |
| llutz | zamba: 4, user, runas,host, command | 18:42 |
| ikonia | zamba: the second means all commands | 18:42 |
| zamba | ikonia: well, now i understand even less | 18:42 |
| rootpower | need some help with configuring my broadcom bcm4312 wireless adapter | 18:42 |
| zamba | "a response to"? | 18:42 |
| unr3a1 | reto`, sorry for the confusion, I should have specified that | 18:42 |
| ikonia | zamba: all=ls all=((all) - as in the first is ls only, the second is all commands | 18:42 |
| llutz | zamba: 4 fields per entry, called "aliases": user, runas,host, command | 18:42 |
| bluebaron | reto`: it does ping a lot faster ... ugh ... last time i used this computer i installed dhcpd ... i uninstalled it but it probably has something to do with that ... any ideas | 18:42 |
| reto` | unr3a1: remove usplash and quiet(?) on the grub line | 18:42 |
| Manii | unr3a1, if your using a really old chipset then give up, windows 7 works on my old desktop but ubuntu doesnt :P | 18:43 |
| zamba | *sigh* i'm not getting it at all | 18:43 |
| unr3a1 | reto`, alright, I will write that down and try it to see if there are any errors. I am at work at the moment, so I cant do it now, I am more or less looking for information. lol | 18:43 |
| zamba | why the (ALL) then? | 18:43 |
| ikonia | zamba: that means all commands | 18:43 |
| rootpower | need some help with configuring my broadcom bcm4312 wireless adapter | 18:43 |
| zamba | ikonia: and ALL doesn't? | 18:44 |
| unr3a1 | Manii, its a brand new computer. Intel core i7 920, 4GB of RAM, Nvidia GT220 graphics card | 18:44 |
| filip89 | hi i need a help, after kernel update my sound is not working | 18:44 |
| bullgard | ikonia: Thank you. | 18:44 |
| ikonia | zamba: the first ALL is "define all" the (ALL) is "all commands | 18:44 |
| Araiya | Celebration! After 8 failed installs, I finally got Ubuntu to install on this Winterm WT9455XL. :) | 18:44 |
| zamba | ikonia: gah :D | 18:44 |
| J_C | rootpower: do you have b43-fwcutter installed? | 18:44 |
| zamba | ikonia: totally not getting it | 18:44 |
| bluebaron | everyone, after installing and uninstalling dhcpd, i'm having slow network issues. pings return in 20ms but the time in between is 10-20 seconds even after dns resolution; however, if i ping by ip, it doesn't do this. i'm assuming i did something wrong with dhcpd ... anyone know what would cause this? | 18:44 |
| tomsdale | ikonia: strange - I commented out all fstab entries and replaced them with a /dev/sda/ / instead the blkid - its still the same problem and it looks for disk by uuid. | 18:44 |
| ikonia | zamba: ok, here we go | 18:44 |
| ikonia | tomsdale: sda is not a partition | 18:44 |
| tomsdale | ikonia: sry , dev/sda1 mounted on root | 18:44 |
| filip89 | i already reinstall alsa to newer one, but it did not help | 18:45 |
| ikonia | tomsdale: that's the whole disk, that would be an error | 18:45 |
| tomsdale | I know | 18:45 |
| ikonia | zamba: ok, so the ALL= means "what is the list of all commands the users can run" | 18:45 |
| filip89 | also it distroyed my sound at win | 18:45 |
| bluebaron | filip89: you probably have to install from the latest alsa sources | 18:45 |
| ikonia | zamba: follow that ? | 18:45 |
| Manii | unr3a1, lol okay, ignore me :P | 18:45 |
| zamba | ikonia: so it's like a variable? | 18:45 |
| zamba | ikonia: or.. rather.. a key..? | 18:45 |
| reto` | bluebaron: I have a similar problem with my router... it just doesn't work well with gnu/linux and dns... I always have to set my dns to the isp instead of the gateway | 18:45 |
| ikonia | zamba: yes, so ALL=ls would mean, all the commands you can run is "ls" only | 18:45 |
| Manii | Is there a way to make AWN not have all the icons centered? | 18:45 |
| filip89 | bluebaron: i made allready | 18:45 |
| zamba | ikonia: why not just call it COMMANDS=? | 18:45 |
| ikonia | zamba: I didn't write sudo | 18:46 |
| bluebaron | reto`: thank you ... i will try that immediately | 18:46 |
| ikonia | zamba: (and you can actually do it like that) | 18:46 |
| zamba | ikonia: but you agree it makes more sense? | 18:46 |
| ikonia | zamba: not really, | 18:46 |
| ikonia | zamba: so ALL=(ALL) means you can run all commands | 18:46 |
| unr3a1 | Manii, lol... | 18:46 |
| ikonia | zamba: you can make sudo MUCH more complicated with veriables like COMMANDS so ALL=(GROUP@ COMMANDS) etc, that's why "ALL" is used, | 18:47 |
| zamba | where the paranthesis indicate that it is a reserved keyword or something and should be interpreted directly? | 18:47 |
| ikonia | zamba: pretty much yes | 18:47 |
| zamba | the last one, then? | 18:47 |
| zamba | ALL=(ALL) ALL? | 18:47 |
| ikonia | the last one is the hosts | 18:47 |
| unr3a1 | Manii, my friends computer is older. HP pavilion P4 @ 3.20 GHz, 1.5GB of RAM | 18:48 |
| bluebaron | reto`: 5 gold stars ... you have a tp-link par chance?. | 18:48 |
| Manii | unr3a1, I mean REALLY old, im talking about a VIA chip.... | 18:48 |
| === parfait is now known as chadou | ||
| unr3a1 | Manii, oh... lol. yea none of them are that old. lol | 18:48 |
| bluebaron | Royall: from ontario? | 18:48 |
| Royall | no | 18:48 |
| reto` | bluebaron: no, some cheap siemens | 18:48 |
| tomsdale | is it possible that the error is with grub - not with the fstab. you have to give the uuid to grub as well and I have the feeling it never reaches the fstab | 18:49 |
| bluebaron | Royall: ah ... thought you were a leafs fan | 18:49 |
| bluebaron | reto`: cool ... thanks buds | 18:49 |
| reto` | bluebaron: yw | 18:49 |
| pyr0path | hey guys got a question.. im on the latest linux kernel, ubuntu 9.10 and i am unable to use the -Make- command | 18:49 |
| pyr0path | why the hell not? | 18:49 |
| zamba | ikonia: ok, so to summarize.. if i want a specific user to be able to bring down and up the network interfaces, then i need him to have access to ifup and ifdown? | 18:49 |
| zamba | ikonia: so like: user ALL=/sbin/ifup, /sbin/ifdown ALL? | 18:50 |
| ikonia | zamba: just ifconfig should do it | 18:50 |
| ikonia | perfect | 18:50 |
| ikonia | pyr0path: the kernel has nothing to do with "make" what are you trying to build | 18:50 |
| zamba | ikonia: and that means he can run /etc/init.d/networking script as well? | 18:50 |
| pyr0path | everytime i try i get an error WARNING: $SHELL not set to bash. | 18:50 |
| pyr0path | If you experience build errors, try | 18:50 |
| pyr0path | 'make SHELL=/bin/bash'. | 18:50 |
| ikonia | zamba: no, that's a seperate command | 18:50 |
| ikonia | pyr0path: what are you trying to build | 18:50 |
| pyr0path | trying to compile the ipwraw drivers for my wireless card | 18:51 |
| pyr0path | im currently using the iwl3945 intel drivers | 18:51 |
| ikonia | so set SHELL=/bin/bash as the error suggests | 18:51 |
| pyr0path | ikonia, i did | 18:51 |
| pachu | HELLO | 18:51 |
| unr3a1 | reto`, Manii, the other thing is that when I do get booted into Linux, I am not able to right click on internet items ad do a "save as". firefox just will NOT load the save as window to select a location | 18:51 |
| pyr0path | still the same problem | 18:51 |
| ikonia | pyr0path: type "echo $SHELL" | 18:51 |
| pachu | my name is paco | 18:51 |
| pyr0path | k lemme try that | 18:51 |
| Sonja | whenever my netbook goes to sleep mode, i can never wake it up again | 18:52 |
| pachu | hello | 18:52 |
| Sonja | i have to pyhsically press the power button a long time to forcre a shutdown | 18:52 |
| pyr0path | hmmm | 18:52 |

| Rush3d | Can anyone help me install adobe flash players? | 18:52 |
| Sonja | Rush3d: use linux mint | 18:52 |
| pachu | im spain | 18:53 |
| Rush3d | Sonja, where can I get that? | 18:53 |
| ikonia | pyr0path: pastebin the full output in a pastebin | 18:53 |
| ikonia | Sonja: why ? why should he use mint | 18:53 |
| ikonia | Rush3d: ignore that random statment | 18:53 |
| ikonia | Rush3d: flash is available on ubuntu | 18:53 |
| Rush3d | Ok. | 18:53 |
| Sonja | because linux mint comes with flash already set up nicely | 18:53 |
| hvgotcodes | join #tux-on-ice | 18:53 |
| ikonia | Rush3d: install the package flashplugin-nongree | 18:53 |
| defrysk | f | 18:53 |
| Sonja | with ubuntu you have to do extra work to try to make flash work | 18:53 |
| Rush3d | Ok ikonia | 18:53 |
| pachu | tus mulasç | 18:53 |
| ikonia | Sonja: so you're saying rather than install one package in ubuntu - re-install the whole distro | 18:53 |
| elyssonmr | can anybody help me with QT instalation? | 18:53 |
| BlessJah | 16 | 18:53 |
| Araiya | Rush3d: from a terminal, you may want to try `sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree` if you want adobe's option. There are a couple of otehrs. | 18:53 |
| Araiya | others* | 18:53 |
| iWolf | !flash | Sonja | 18:53 |
| ubottu | Sonja: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 18:53 |
| Araiya | Oooor use iWolf+ubottu's suggestion. :) | 18:54 |
| ikonia | Rush3d: the package flashplugin-nonfree should be all you need | 18:54 |
| Rush3d | Ikonia, it just says | 18:54 |
| iWolf | There should be a package in the Software Center, so search flash @ Sonja | 18:54 |
| iWolf | I find that easier | 18:54 |
| Jaimie | browser dependant ofc, opera does its own thing for flash | 18:54 |
| unr3a1 | reto`, Manii, 9.04 was working fine on my desktop, so I will most likely just format and go back to that. thanks for all the info and input. it really helped. | 18:55 |
| Rush3d | Ikonia, i get this: http://pastebin.com/m35495489 | 18:55 |
| * Araiya doesn't have a gui installed, so can't assist on that all that well. :) | 18:55 | |
| ikonia | Rush3d: do "sudo apt-get update" first | 18:55 |
| Rush3d | Ok Ikonia | 18:55 |
| ikonia | Rush3d: actually can you also show me "uname -a" in this channel please | 18:56 |
| defrysk | why not just install ubuntu-restricted-extras? | 18:56 |
| Rush3d | Ikonia, what is that? | 18:56 |
| loca|host | does anyone have firefox crashing when enabling firebug console ? | 18:56 |
| ikonia | Rush3d: command shows some system info | 18:56 |
| Rush3d | vmadmin@HOSTBOx:~$ uname -a | 18:57 |
| Rush3d | Linux HOSTBOx 2.6.24-27-server #1 SMP Thu Jan 28 00:36:19 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux | 18:57 |
| Rush3d | vmadmin@HOSTBOx:~$ | 18:57 |
| ikonia | loca|host: someone was complaining about that yesterday, make sure you're using the lastest firefox package on ubuntu 9.10 | 18:57 |
| reto` | unr3a1: ok, just try and see without usplash and you should see where it freezes | 18:57 |
| ikonia | Rush3d: what ubuntu version is that ? | 18:57 |
| Rush3d | I have no idea | 18:57 |
| Rush3d | I think I have 7.04 | 18:57 |
| Myrtti | that's a bit, old... | 18:57 |
| ikonia | Rush3d: that's end of life/unsupported now | 18:57 |
| loca|host | ikonia, sure it is, firefox 3.5.7+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.9.10.1 | 18:57 |
| Jaimie | sudo apt-get upgrade time :) | 18:57 |
| Rush3d | umm | 18:58 |
| Rush3d | How do I find out | 18:58 |
| Enelar | Hello, somebody know russian language? | 18:58 |
| ikonia | Rush3d: that's probably why you can't install updates any more as your repo files are pointing at non-existing repos | 18:58 |
| vlt | Hello. I opened a VOB sequence in avidemux and want to save a PCM audio wav file? How to do this? | 18:58 |
| ikonia | Rush3d: do an "sudo apt-get update" see if it errors | 18:58 |
| Rush3d | Ikonia, I just installed about 356 updates | 18:58 |
| Rush3d | an hour ago | 18:58 |

| matthew_ | okay so why are you bothered by shortened english when most of the online community understands it? | 19:03 |
| DavidJHeinrich | nm, figured out | 19:03 |
| kostkon | Rush3d, did you manage to find it? | 19:03 |
| axaxaxaxa | i have problems to access printers connected to linux machine by Windows m/c s in the LAN | 19:03 |
| ikonia | DavidJHeinrich: see "alternative download options" | 19:03 |
| cmp | ikonia, i thought i got it but i didnt - so guide me please how to find the file manager | 19:03 |
| loca|host | ikonia, yours is 64b ? | 19:03 |
| DavidJHeinrich | thanks, just figured out | 19:03 |
| Rush3d | Kostkon: yes I did. | 19:03 |
| ikonia | cmp: ok - lets back up | 19:03 |
| kostkon | Rush3d, ok | 19:03 |
| ikonia | loca|host: yes | 19:03 |
| Xial | matthew_: it's a polite way of saying "ENGLISH. Speak it." | 19:03 |
| matthew_ | more like pompus to be honest | 19:04 |
| ikonia | cmp: I strongly suggest you have a read of the basics at https://help.ubuntu.com | 19:04 |
| jrib | matthew_: remember it's hard for people for whom english is a second language to understand | 19:04 |
| axaxaxaxa | i installed samba but dont know how to configure it | 19:04 |
| ikonia | cmp: you need to have a little understanding of the basics of how to use the desktop | 19:04 |
| Rush3d | Kostkon: Thank you, It is installing via terminal now. | 19:04 |
| kostkon | Rush3d, :) | 19:04 |

| DavidJHeinrich | is here any reason for 64-bit Ubuntu over 32-bit if the person doesn't ave more htan 3GB RAM? | 19:04 |
| Enelar | I have 2 soundcards. 1 - on motherboard(M), second SoundBlaster (SB). I want listen musik on SB, and talk skype on M, but ubuntu see onlu SB card. What I should do? | 19:04 |
| jrib | DavidJHeinrich: not really, no | 19:04 |
| blakkheim | DavidJHeinrich: no | 19:04 |
| ikonia | DavidJHeinrich: nope | 19:04 |
| cmp | ikonia, cant you tell me how to reach it ? | 19:04 |
| matthew_ | yet the funniest thing is people from other languages can speak english better than we can =P | 19:04 |
| loca|host | ikonia, i'll revert to firebug 1.4 till it will be fixed | 19:05 |
| DavidJHeinrich | k, thanks | 19:05 |
| the_real_dave | matthew_: It ain't that hard to type "you" and it makes it a lot clearer for people who's first language isn't enlish | 19:05 |
| matthew_ | but do u know how to fix it | 19:05 |
| axaxaxaxa | !samba | axaxaxaxa | 19:05 |
| ubottu | axaxaxaxa, please see my private message | 19:05 |
| ikonia | cmp: you've been in here a few times and you don't know how to open the file browser ?? I suggest you read the basics on https://help.ubuntu.com or you'll never be in a position to get help easier | 19:05 |
| Xial | DavidJHeinrich, perhaps if you are on hardware that can actually hold more than 4GB of RAM, and consider upgrading in the future, it could be an advantage. | 19:05 |
| === ubuntu is now known as chadou | ||
| Rush3d | !samba | Xial | 19:05 |
| ubottu | Xial: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 19:05 |
| ikonia | cmp: knowing the basics makes it easier to work with you and you'll find it easier to get more out of ubuntu | 19:05 |
| Ari_Lazarus | Hi there. I'm trying to get a game to run on PlayOnLinux (Fallout Online), but I can't seem to get the manual installations to work. Does anyone have any experience with this program at all? | 19:05 |
| Rush3d | !adobe | ikonia | 19:05 |
| Rush3d | lol. | 19:05 |
| ikonia | Rush3d: I know how to use it | 19:06 |
| Rush3d | :) | 19:06 |
| Xial | Rush3d, I'm not asking about samba, though I have the helpdocs open in my browser. | 19:06 |
| matthew_ | or was your big rant on my chosen typing just to waste time? | 19:06 |
| highfiver | is ubuntu taking part in gsoc 2010? | 19:06 |
| Rush3d | oh. | 19:06 |
| cmp | ikonia, like : file manager is located in ...... and then you will see ..... and then you will do ......... this is how i teach people - not to let them just read by them selves something not easy to be understood | 19:06 |
| DavidJHeinrich | Xial: ahh, ok, thanks | 19:06 |
| DavidJHeinrich | Xial: if you start with 32-bit ubuntu, can u upgrade to 64-bit version or no? | 19:06 |
| blakkheim | DavidJHeinrich: no | 19:06 |
| ikonia | cmp: ok - so I'm teaching you to read https://help.ubuntu.com so you understadn the basics of how to use ubuntu, then people in here can help you easier | 19:06 |
| Xial | matthew_, if you have a question, ask it, and ask it in english. I assume you have at least 66 keys on that keyboard, so try using them. | 19:06 |
| heyyou | hello can someone help me to install the driver for my wlan adapter? | 19:07 |
| ikonia | guys, lets tone it down a little, it's an easy mistake to make, and I'm sure matthew_ will type in english now | 19:07 |
| milicap | hello | 19:07 |
| milicap | how add header | 19:07 |
| milicap | curses.h | 19:07 |
| vibowit | hello all | 19:07 |
| milicap | on Ubuntu 8.4 | 19:07 |
| jrib | milicap: why? | 19:07 |
| ZykoticK9 | Ari_Lazarus, does "Fallout Online" go by some other name as well? | 19:07 |
| milicap | i need header | 19:07 |
| the_real_dave | cmp: its useful to understand the basics of an OS before you try to get help. Basics as in accessing files ;) | 19:07 |
| milicap | for Clear screen | 19:07 |
| matthew_ | well i have been using them and no one answers so in all honesty if no one can be bothered to reply to what i write does me using u rather than you really matter? | 19:07 |
| DavidJHeinrich | thanks all, I'll just d/l both...getting for g/f, have to ask her if she might upgrade RAM | 19:08 |
| ikonia | matthew_: please just try to type in clear english, it's easire for people to understand, I missed your question, so ask it again | 19:08 |
| reto` | matthew_: u r right ; | 19:08 |
| Ari_Lazarus | ZykoticK9: Yes. FOnline 2238. | 19:08 |
| ikonia | matthew_: it's a fast moving room, sometimes you need to repeat it or wait for people to know the answer to join | 19:08 |
| reto` | matthew_: ) | 19:08 |
| Xial | DavidJHeinrich, if her hardware supports 64-bit, might as well go that route. | 19:08 |
| milicap | any c programmer here ? | 19:08 |
| ikonia | milicap: just ask your question | 19:08 |
| quietrack | I was wondering when CUDA, OpenCL support (latest nVidia drive) would be available through Ubuntu's Software Center (I've gotten the driver to install but it was kinda iffy last time I tried) | 19:08 |
| the_real_dave | matthew_: sometimes there's just no-one in the room who knows the answer ;) ask again | 19:09 |
| matthew_ | all i need is a solution for my wireless software that is built into ubuntu to accept my password | 19:09 |
| milicap | ikona i want to programm for cls | 19:09 |
| jrib | milicap: you probably want libncurses5-edv | 19:09 |
| milicap | in C | 19:09 |
| ZykoticK9 | Ari_Lazarus, i see a "Fallout 3" and "fallout tactics" "fallout 2" but no "Fallout Online" or "Fonline 2238" | 19:09 |
| milicap | for UNIX | 19:09 |
| ikonia | milicap: ok, so what's the question ? | 19:09 |
| milicap | i need curses.h header | 19:09 |
| ikonia | matthew_: what wirless card do you have | 19:09 |
| panfist | when i boot in to memtest, it consistently shows that i get errors on the same three addresses...is there a way to block these addresses from use? | 19:09 |
| MoPi | OP: Guest17851 is a spambot | 19:09 |
| dbertaso | Alguien me puede decir porque ubuntu desktop 9.10 64 bits no ve mas de 3gb RAM | 19:09 |
| the_real_dave | matthew_: is it rejecting your password? Is your wireless card working? | 19:10 |
| blakkheim | !br | dbertaso | 19:10 |
| ubottu | dbertaso: Por favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Obrigado. | 19:10 |
| matthew_ | i got a usb belkin dongle | 19:10 |
| ikonia | MoPi: please join #ubuntu-ops | 19:10 |
| Ari_Lazarus | ZykoticK9: Yeah, I'm trying to do a manual install. What happens is that it'll emulate the program, but the actual launcher won't be made. So if I want to play the game, I have to 'install' it every time. | 19:10 |
| dbertaso | Something else explain to me what ubuntu 9.10 desktop 64 bits don't see more de sgb RAM | 19:10 |
| ikonia | matthew_: Hmmm not sure what belkins suppor is like these days, but using gnome-network-manager applet you should be able to put in a password IF your card is seen | 19:10 |
| the_real_dave | matthew_: has it been detected? Does it list available networks? | 19:10 |
| matthew_ | and yep it is working since im dual booting off windows 7 through wubi | 19:10 |
| ZykoticK9 | Ari_Lazarus, if you can't tell me the name of the game i can't help... help me help you. | 19:10 |
| heyyou | hi i tried to install my wlan adapters driver using ndiswrapper but it doesnt show up in ifconfig what can i do? | 19:11 |
| matthew_ | yeh it lists available networks but with no signal | 19:11 |
| Xial | panfist: sounds like you've got a bad dimm. only way around that that I am aware of is to swap with a known good dimm. | 19:11 |
| matthew_ | though a wifi scan (program) does show signal for the routers | 19:11 |
| candy | how to get direct download link for youtube videos?? | 19:11 |
| the_real_dave | matthew_: and I presume it works whilst in windows, same distance from the access point and that? | 19:11 |
| Ari_Lazarus | ZykoticK9: It might not be popular enough to warrant its own entry. It's a mod based off Fallout 2 I think. http://fonline2238.blogspot.com/ is the website | 19:11 |
| Rush3d | Ikonia: Is there any way I can install Java Devolopment Kit (JDK) | 19:11 |
| quietrack | aka: does anyone know if I will have less problems with the latest nVidia driver since Ubuntu's latest batch of updates (including new kernel)? | 19:12 |
| blakkheim | candy: i'm sure you've asked that here not long ago and i answered you | 19:12 |
| matthew_ | yes it does work in windows | 19:12 |
| ikonia | matthew_: have you tried gnome-network-manager ? | 19:12 |
| Rush3d | Ikonia: Is there any way I can install Java Devolopment Kit (JDK) | 19:12 |
| panfist | xial i'm not sure if this address corresponds to a location in the ram near the 'end' (if that even makes sense) because this machine has never shown any stability problems | 19:12 |
| SemiBz | Rush3d: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk | 19:12 |
| the_real_dave | candy: an easy way to save youtube videos is to let them load in a browser, then navigate to /tmp and copy the flash video | 19:12 |
| === ikonia_ is now known as the_tester | ||
| tomi05 | hey ppl | 19:12 |
| candy | blakkheim, but i dint get from the one u told me | 19:12 |
| matthew_ | the gnome manager was already pre installed | 19:13 |
| blakkheim | candy: sudo aptitude install youtube-dl | 19:13 |
| the_real_dave | matthew_: try using wicd instead of nm-applet? | 19:13 |
| candy | the_real_dave, i know that, but wht to do for long videos n if my internet is slow | 19:13 |
| blakkheim | candy: then just run "youtube-dl <urlofthevideo>" | 19:13 |
| heyyou | hi i tried to install my wlan adapters driver using ndiswrapper but it doesnt show up in ifconfig what can i do? | 19:13 |
| Araiya | panfist - I'd be tempted to pull one stick, hit it with your memory test and isolate it that way. | 19:13 |
| ZykoticK9 | Ari_Lazarus, thanks. so looks like there is no WineDB entry for it i'm affraid, i haven't used PlayonLinux in a long time - forget where it installs everything to, but if you can figure that out you should be able to create a manual lanuch for the game | 19:13 |
| matthew_ | installing wicd now | 19:13 |
| candy | blakkheim, run from from where?? | 19:13 |
| Jef91 | How can I remove old kernels from my Ubuntu system? | 19:13 |
| blakkheim | candy: the terminal | 19:13 |
| the_real_dave | candy: getting a direct link won't change the speed | 19:13 |
| panfist | xial i ran the test only because i'm running it on most of my machines out of curiosity. the one machine that was actually unstable has only shown one error in 24 hours, which may or may not be a statistical anomaly | 19:14 |
| the_real_dave | matthew_: let us know how it goes. NM-Applet can be annoying sometimes | 19:14 |
| Ari_Lazarus | I'll try. Thanks anyway! | 19:14 |
| heyyou | hi i tried to install my wlan adapters driver using ndiswrapper but it doesnt show up in ifconfig what can i do? | 19:14 |
| quietrack | if anyone knows OpenCL stuff pol | 19:14 |
| panfist | araiya the funny thing is i'm not even concerned with that machine...the one machine that prompted me to run memtests in general has shown only one error in 24 hours | 19:14 |

| ikonia | quietrack: just ask your question | 19:14 |

| heyyou | hi i tried to install my wlan adapters driver using ndiswrapper but it doesnt show up in ifconfig what can i do? | 19:15 |
| Rush3d | Ikonia: 3993 | 19:15 |
| Rush3d | o wait | 19:15 |
| the_real_dave | matthew_: you installed wicd before you uninstalled nm-aplet right? | 19:15 |
| Rush3d | mao | 19:15 |
| ikonia | Rush3d: what ? | 19:15 |
| quietrack | ikonia: sure, I've been having trouble with nVidia's latest driver and was at least wondering when the Ubuntu people thought the might be able to clear it through to the Software Center | 19:16 |
| Rush3d | Ikonia: Can i install JDK (java devolopment kit)? | 19:16 |
| panfist | i have an unstable machine which will usually crash within an hour of a cold boot. I can move my mouse cursor around, but nothing else. I can't switch to another tty, i can't restart X, i can't SSH into it... | 19:16 |
| dbertaso | Alguien podria decirme porque ubuntu 9.10 64 bits no puede direccionar mas de 3gb de ram | 19:16 |
| the_real_dave | matthew_: its probably missing dependancies which it now can't get becuase you've no network. can you connect to a wired network? | 19:16 |
| LADmaticCA | Jef91, you can remove them through synaptic. Use the search option and type "linux-image-2" | 19:16 |
| ikonia | Rush3d: "yes" look in the package manager - as with every other instalaltion question you've asked | 19:16 |
| panfist | which is really strange that the cursor is still responsive but nothing else is | 19:16 |
| blakkheim | panfist: sounds like a hardware problem | 19:16 |
| ReJoiN | hello? | 19:16 |
| Jef91 | LADmaticCA - thanks just found that on google | 19:16 |
| Rush3d | Ok Iko | 19:16 |

| LADmaticCA | Jef91, ok cool | 19:17 |
| ikonia | quietrack: as far as I'm aware there is no plan to update the nvidia drivers at this time | 19:17 |

| candy | blakkheim, thanks, can u help me one more thing?? | 19:17 |
| heyyou | Xial, ok, ill wait then | 19:17 |
| blakkheim | candy: sure, what is it? | 19:17 |
| Braden_ | I'm having trouble deciding between ubuntu netbook remix or jolicloud for my aspire one, what do you guys recommened? | 19:17 |
| panfist | blakkheim is there a way to diagnose that for sure? | 19:17 |
| Jef91 | removing kernels free up space in /boot right? | 19:17 |
| dbertaso | why ubuntu 9.10 64 bits desktop don't recognize more 3GB of ram | 19:17 |
| blakkheim | panfist: you could run memtest86+ on the machine from a livecd | 19:17 |
| candy | blakkheim, i downloaded skype but i couldnt install it, packet manager says the file is corrupted or u have no permission to open it | 19:17 |
| quietrack | ikonia: could someone be petitioned to make plans? As soon as Ubuntu supports CUDA, OpenCL ... this becomes my primary development OS | 19:17 |
| Jef91 | dbertaso - How much ram is in it and is any shared to video memory? | 19:18 |
| ReJoiN | this morning i installed my nvidia drivers, and ran quake, which i previously ran in windowed mode in 320x240 | 19:18 |
| candy | blakkheim, what to do?? i want skype to chat with my family abroad | 19:18 |
| blakkheim | candy: i've never used skype, sorry | 19:18 |
| reto` | heyyou: try to fiddle around with ndiswrapper on the command line... if the card is not showing up in ifconfig then take another driver/version... it can be a hassle and sometimes it doesn't work at all... check the logs, dmesg etc. | 19:18 |
| ikonia | quietrack: you could log a feature/update request on launchpad.net | 19:18 |
| the_real_dave | ReJoiN: and the problem is? | 19:18 |
| quietrack | neat, I will look into that ... thank you | 19:18 |
| candy | blakkheim, any other option of video chat?? | 19:18 |
| blakkheim | candy: skype will work in ubuntu, it's just that i've never used it. i'm sure someone else can help you with it. | 19:19 |

| FloodBot3 | matthew_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 19:19 |
| Araiya | candy, I think pidgin should have video at this point. | 19:19 |
| dbertaso | How to know how much ram is shared in video memory, the machines is toshiba laptop with 4GB RAm and video intel native | 19:19 |
| blakkheim | !lucid > gsker | 19:19 |

| === jGarcia is now known as Guest26360 | ||
| panfist | one error in 24 hours to me doesn't have a strong correlation to crashes every hour for not apparent reason | 19:21 |

| panfist | i will replace the ram i just doubt i will be getting to the bottom of my problem | 19:22 |
| Idlehead | I installed a driver for ATI cards via envyng, now after the boot it locks up. i can't switch the tty to uninstall the driver. what do? | 19:22 |

| kostkon | Rush3d, you could try "sudo apt-get install sun-java6-bin sun-java6-plugin && sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-6-sun" | 19:51 |

| vlt | Hello. I opened a VOB sequence in avidemux and want to save a PCM audio wav file? How to do this? | 19:51 |
| ActionParsnip | !ppa | onaogh | 19:51 |
| ubottu | onaogh: With Launchpad's Personal Package Archives (PPA), you can build and publish binary Ubuntu packages for multiple architectures simply by uploading an Ubuntu source package to Launchpad. See https://help.launchpad.net/PPAQuickStart. | 19:51 |
| reto` | ActionParsnip: of course... you think it doesn't matter... it's all the same... understood that | 19:52 |
| kostkon | Rush3d, oh the jdk and not the jre | 19:52 |
| matthew_ | its weird why it cant connect =( | 19:52 |
| onaogh | Thanks ActionParsnip | 19:52 |
| mandi | ActionParsnip: thx - should i leave the default 3GB that says "Dell restore"? | 19:52 |
| ActionParsnip | aciid: then try the native plugin. remove ALL flash packages including gnash and swf to avoid issues | 19:52 |
| matthew_ | it can see all the connections though | 19:52 |
| matthew_ | and all the settings | 19:52 |
| kostkon | Rush3d, sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk ? | 19:52 |
| infid | har ecryptfs is good if you want your drive to be encrypted | 19:52 |
| ActionParsnip | reto`: thats my point exactly :) | 19:53 |
| ActionParsnip | mandi: i would yes | 19:53 |
| Rush3d | Kostkon: I got it :) | 19:53 |
| mandi | and will i loose internet while the install is going on (since my modem is connected to that computer) | 19:53 |
| ActionParsnip | mandi: if ubuntu doesnt pick it up, yes | 19:53 |
| kostkon | Rush3d, and if you want to set the Sun Java as your default JVM, give "sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-6-sun" | 19:53 |
| har | infid: I think you replied to the wrong person lol | 19:53 |
| matthew_ | i guess no internet connection for me =( | 19:53 |
| ma5t3rw1tt | Can you share your connection like you can in windows. Like take your wireless and have it sent thru your ethernet port like you can windows? | 19:53 |
| ma5t3rw1tt | Connection sharing? | 19:54 |
| guntbert | !ics | ma5t3rw1tt | 19:54 |
| ubottu | ma5t3rw1tt: If you want to share the internet connection of your ubuntu machine with other machines in the network see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetConnectionSharing - You may also use !firestarter: http://www.fs-security.com/docs/connection-sharing.php | 19:54 |
| nonameNN | ma5t3rw1tt: i think u can do that with firestarter | 19:54 |
| mandi | thx all for your input - if i have any more problems i'll let you know! | 19:54 |
| ma5t3rw1tt | Hmmmm lemme look into it. I am about to buy me another computer and I may put linux on my laptop, so small things like this is something I'll be doing near future | 19:55 |
| ekim1 | mandi: ok, good luck. | 19:55 |
| alabd | how to find which partitions are primary ? | 19:55 |
| iWolf | !gparted | alabd | 19:55 |
| ubottu | alabd: gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php | 19:55 |
| iWolf | That might be able to help | 19:56 |
| === matteo is now known as Guest17237 | ||
| alabd | iWolf: are you sure gparted shows that ? | 19:56 |
| ma5t3rw1tt | nonameNN: Does Firestarter have a GUI? | 19:56 |
| iWolf | Pretty sure, would you like me to check? | 19:56 |
| nonameNN | ma5t3rw1tt: sudo apt-get install firestarter | 19:56 |
| blakkheim | ma5t3rw1tt: firestarter IS a gui frontend for iptables | 19:56 |

| llutz | alabd: 1-4 = primary, 5-xxx logical drives | 19:57 |
| FoolishOwl | ma5t3rw1tt: I was using connection sharing via NetworkManager recently. | 19:57 |
| blakkheim | alabd: yes gparted shows that | 19:57 |
| reto` | ma5t3rw1tt: hmm... I don't use sd cards myself so I'm not sure how fast they are... depends also on the reader I guess | 19:57 |
| ma5t3rw1tt | FoolishOwl: Oh really? | 19:57 |
| onaogh | solved :P | 19:57 |
| ma5t3rw1tt | reto: I'll play around with both and figure it out later | 19:57 |
| FoolishOwl | ma5t3rw1tt: I had a wireless network connection, and a lan card, and a crossover cable. | 19:57 |
| truthtaco | how do I check my linux kernal version? | 19:57 |

| truthtaco | thanks | 19:58 |
| ma5t3rw1tt | FoolishOwl: Yeah, later on when I get my new computer I am going to be using my laptop for more of a server / connection sharing and things and I think what better way of doing all that then with using some ubuntu or linux mint | 19:58 |
| === titaniumbrella is now known as Carbonish | ||
| ma5t3rw1tt | FoolishOwl: Thats why I was wondering about this | 19:59 |
| FoolishOwl | ma5t3rw1tt: in NetworkManager, I set the wired connection, under IPv4 settings, to "Shared to other computers" | 19:59 |
| ma5t3rw1tt | FoolishOwl: Interesting, I just got done making a bootable flash drive with linux mint 8 on it so I am going to give that a try and see what happens, Thank you very much | 20:00 |
| ma5t3rw1tt | Reto & nonameNN: Thank you very much for your help guys :) | 20:00 |
| FoolishOwl | ma5t3rw1tt: of course, you need two separate interfaces for that to work, like two NICs or one NIC and one wireless. | 20:00 |
| FoolishOwl | ma5t3rw1tt: And, the machine doing the sharing has to be booted up, for the other machines to connect to it. | 20:01 |
| nonameNN | ma5t3rw1tt: no problem | 20:01 |
| ismail_ | hello can someone help me with frostwire ? | 20:01 |
| ma5t3rw1tt | FoolishOwl: Something along the lines of using my laptop wireless to share the connection out thru my ethernet port to my xbox 360 mainly | 20:01 |

| * I^llGetOverIt in nomine Patris et filii et spiritos Sancti | 20:02 | |
| ma5t3rw1tt | FoolishOwl: Windows 7 does this flawlessly :P and I am sure Linux can as well, sounds like simple actions with an OS these days anyway | 20:02 |
| FoolishOwl | ma5t3rw1tt: Ugh. I was sharing to an Xbox 360. It's annoying that they don't put in a wireless adapter, like every other modern console. It worked for me, anyway, as a workaround until we got a cable modem and our own router. | 20:02 |
| alabd | blakkheim: where ? | 20:03 |
| CyL | incd: Would you please help me with xrandr? I'm able to have an image on my second monitor, but the problem now is that my first monitor, wich is smaller than the second, is set to a higher resolution, and whatever is shown on the bottom of the screen doesn't appear on it, and secod, I'd like that my second monitor acted as an extension of the first, not the same image... | 20:03 |
| ma5t3rw1tt | FoolishOwl: Yeah I got a router myself, just wanna fool with new ways of connecting. And yeah your right, I don't like how microsoft did not put a wireless inside xbox. | 20:03 |
| ma5t3rw1tt | FoolishOwl: Lemme boot into Linux 8 real quick and I'll have a look see, brb | 20:04 |
| FoolishOwl | ma5t3rw1tt: Anyway, the thing is, whichever interface you're connecting the Xbox to, should have the setting switched from "Automatic DHCP" to "Shared with other computers". | 20:04 |
| alfplayer | Krzyzs: startup probably using file called rc.local | 20:04 |
| alabd | blakkheim: where on gparted we can see if partition is primary or not ? | 20:05 |

| nickware | vilkas: I'm using ubuntu on an old laptop with 512MB memory and it runs very fast. It's slow with xp. | 20:10 |
| capron | vilkas, You dont too have too be a criminal installing pirate verions using ubuntu | 20:10 |
| llutz | alabd: extended = special kind of primary | 20:10 |
| alabd | how did you find it is extended ? | 20:10 |
| resno | what do i usse to find the size of a file? | 20:10 |
| llutz | alabd: if you only have 2 and 3 as primary but 5 to xxx as logical, 3 is "most likely" an extended one | 20:11 |
| OerHeks | resno property's of the file, right-click on the file.. | 20:11 |
| llutz | alabd: and btw fdisk -l tells you | 20:11 |

| alabd | llutz: can not we say 2 ,3 and 5 are primiary and 6 is extended ? | 20:13 |
| llutz | alabd: 5/6 are never primary | 20:13 |
| llutz | alabd:again:only partition numbers 1-4 are primary partitions, >=5 are logical drives | 20:14 |

| ysmn2 | my local hard drive is as of now partitioned into two parts , that of which being Ubuntu and windows.but as of recently I have been hearing a lot about the fedora project and would like to try it out. so would it be posable to partiton my hard drive in such a way that my ubuntu partiton is smaller thus making room for the fedora partiton? and if by doing so will i in some way mess up my grub settings? | 20:15 |
| OerHeks | defrysk df -h gives the size of the folder, thnx ActionParsnip i'll do that from now on | 20:15 |
| ActionParsnip | oerheks: not mandatory, just pointing out | 20:16 |
| ActionParsnip | ysmn2: you can resize a partition to make room | 20:17 |
| vilkas | is ubuntu 9.10 the newest version? | 20:17 |
| jrib | vilkas: yes | 20:17 |
| FoolishOwl | vilkas, I'd say that while proprietary operating systems can be easier on the surface, with any operating system or application, you'll eventually have problems you'll want to fix. With Linux, it's always possible to fix them. With proprietary operating systems, it isn't always possible. | 20:17 |

| FoolishOwl | kirilla, I know. I did a quick Google of "sis191 kernel module" and found instructions on compiling a module for an older version of Ubuntu. So, that may still be necessary, or maybe you can use modprobe to install an existing module. | 20:36 |

| kitty_ | evanandersen, it is only showing the "Configured <device>" nothing specific so its using hald for the hardware discovery | 20:41 |

| evanandersen | Darks7ar: any log files? | 21:09 |
| KaffeeJunky1231 | z3r0-0n3: I'm sorry I don't know what would cause such a problem | 21:09 |
| z3r0-0n3 | my home directory is encrypted. how do I view my hard drive? | 21:09 |
| evanandersen | estevey: go to pastebinit.com | 21:09 |
| evanandersen | paste the stuff in | 21:09 |
| z3r0-0n3 | my home directory is encrypted. how do I view my hard drive? | 21:09 |
| evanandersen | then paste the link here okay? | 21:09 |
| KaffeeJunky1231 | z3r0-0n3: that sounds very fishy to me, encrypting your home folder shouldn't prevent you from using your harddrive | 21:10 |
| m_ | does the Ubuntu 9.10 installer offer an option to do whole-disk encryption like Fedora and OpenSUSE? (that is, encrypt the entire system) | 21:10 |
| z3r0-0n3 | KaffeeJunky1231: im not prevented from opening my hard drive, I just cant open the dir "hard drive" | 21:10 |
| Darks7ar | evanandersen: nope . the strangest thing is that the server doesnt generate error log even if i run it with option to generate such | 21:10 |
| arand | m_: No, you'd need the alternate installer for that | 21:10 |
| estevey | http://paste.ubuntu.com/371204/ | 21:10 |
| capron | z3r0-0n3, How did you encrypt your home ? Lukes | 21:10 |
| estevey | sorry for the flood | 21:11 |
| arand | m_: At least I think the alternate has that option.. | 21:11 |
| z3r0-0n3 | capron: whatever the alternate install cd uses | 21:11 |
| CQ | Pici: installed it, do I need any setup? The scanning's still going on,it's a user dictionary attack | 21:11 |
| Darks7ar | evanandersen: thats why i think its problem with ubuntu | 21:11 |
| m_ | arand: and if I use the alternate installer, will i be able to install Ubuntu like the standard installer? | 21:11 |
| m_ | is it a text-based installer, that is no-GUI? | 21:11 |
| evanandersen | Darks7ar: is there a console.log in the file? | 21:11 |
| arand | m_: Yes. | 21:11 |
| Pici | CQ: You shouldn't need to. Perhaps just a restart of ssh though. | 21:11 |
| === S is now known as Guest9255 | ||
| deathnick | how do i force the autorun on a dvd than | 21:12 |
| arand | m_: it's ncurses -- text and colour | 21:12 |
| evanandersen | Darks7ar: often if it doesn't crash, there will be no crash log. Often there is a console.log, that is created even if everything is running smoothly | 21:12 |
| Darks7ar | evanandersen: in which file? | 21:12 |
| === Mowee is now known as Mowee`Bnc | ||
| z3r0-0n3 | my home directory is encrypted. how do I view my hard drive? | 21:12 |
| mneptok | CQ: another option is the "denyhosts" package. i use it on a few production systems. | 21:12 |
| evanandersen | Darks7ar: whereever the cs log files are? | 21:12 |
| capron | z3r0-0n3, If it is lukes try this cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/xxx crypt_home | 21:13 |
| m_ | would using the alternate installer require additional configuration or is it as easy as using the standard installer? | 21:13 |
| mneptok | CQ: and if you can, require key authentication for ssh. | 21:13 |
| Darks7ar | evanandersen: w8 to see | 21:13 |
| kitty__ | ok so reinstalling the intel driver didn't help | 21:13 |
| Darks7ar | evanandersen: theres no such file in the whole system | 21:14 |
| Darks7ar | i looked for it with locate | 21:14 |
| z3r0-0n3 | capron: Command failed: Can not access device | 21:14 |
| mneptok | Darks7ar: did you run "sudo updatedb" before running locate? | 21:14 |
| Darks7ar | nope :) | 21:14 |
| mneptok | Darks7ar: then that could be why you get no rsults | 21:15 |
| capron | z3r0-0n3, Maby not luks or you tried the wrong dev | 21:15 |
| Darks7ar | mneptok: nope i just ran it and no results | 21:15 |
| Darks7ar | again | 21:15 |
| z3r0-0n3 | capron: what does that mean? | 21:15 |

| metho | i got a bash scripte called cpu.sh which i like to run from any d | 21:18 |
| m_ | jrib: i want to use the alt. installer b/c someone here told me that is the only installer to offer the full disk encryption feature to encrypt the entire system... | 21:18 |
| jrib | m_: ok | 21:19 |
| metho | i got a bash scripte called cpu.sh which i like to run from any directory without typing ./ at the start | 21:19 |
| capron | z3r0-0n3, Try fdisk /dev/sda then you can see your partions | 21:19 |
| jrib | metho: drop it in ~/bin | 21:19 |
| kitty__ | evanandersen, found a possible solution in forums http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1301433&highlight=Module+glx | 21:19 |

| m_ | are the default set of packages installed by the alternate 9.10 installer different from the set of packages installed by the standard 9.10 livecd installer? | 21:20 |
| metho | 2 sec, let me try that | 21:20 |
| mneptok | m_: and that is correct. to use LVM+dm-crypt you have to use the alternate installer. just be aware that you *must* encrypt swap, or the installer will complain. | 21:20 |
| jrib | mneptok: no | 21:20 |
| capron | z3r0-0n3, login as root an do that it might also bee sdb or sdc | 21:20 |
| sory | hola | 21:20 |
| jrib | erm, s/mneptok/m_ | 21:20 |

| z3r0-0n3 | There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024, | 21:21 |
| z3r0-0n3 | and could in certain setups cause problems with: | 21:21 |
| z3r0-0n3 | 1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO) | 21:21 |
| z3r0-0n3 | 2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs | 21:21 |

| cryptk | so I thought I had fixed my USB device freezing problem... until my keyboard froze | 21:29 |
| cryptk | there are no errors or anything in the Xorg log files... | 21:29 |
| ente | hi | 21:30 |
| mneptok | m_: do not encrypt the entire system. leave /boot unencrypted. create a ~500MB partition for /boot | 21:30 |
| cryptk | and there was nothing in dmesg until I unplegged a device... it did show me unplugging it, did not show me plugging it back in | 21:30 |
| mneptok | m_: and you are prompted fairly early in the booting process. | 21:30 |

| Trizicus | I want a specific folder from a device mounted as I boot up. How do I set that up in fstab? | 21:32 |
| mneptok | Trizicus: fstab mounts partitions, not directories. | 21:32 |
| Trizicus | mneptok: how do I setup automounting of directories? | 21:32 |
| metho | that worked, thanks guys.... couple of questions what is ~ is it home or root Dir... for my scripts i still need to use the .sh at the end, do i have to do that??? | 21:33 |
| mneptok | Trizicus: a directory is not a filesystem. thus, you don't mount directories, unless they are network shares. | 21:33 |
| jrib | metho: ~ means $HOME, your home directory. You don't need the .sh if you don't want it | 21:33 |
| Trizicus | mneptok: I do not want to mount an entire device into my Music folder for example. Obvioulsy the device needs to be mounted. How do I automount a directory in the device to a local folder? | 21:34 |
| jrib | Trizicus: why do you want to mount just a directory? If it's for organizational purposes, would a symlink do? | 21:34 |
| coolkehon | I've got a computer with a broken graphics card and bestbuy(computer store) installed a new one but left the old one in. ubuntu is using the broken graphics card. what should i do because I can't see anything. all i get is a blank screen. what's the command to refresh displays so that i can fix this (blind command usage) | 21:34 |
| metho | thanks so when i created ~/bin, why did it place under /root i.e. /root/bin why not under /home.bin | 21:34 |
| Trizicus | jrib: Durrr rofl... Why didn't i think of that... | 21:34 |
| Trizicus | jrib: thanks lol | 21:34 |
| mneptok | Trizicus: mount the device, and make the local directory a symlink to the directory on the device. | 21:34 |
| jrib | metho: that shouldn't have happened. Were you playing with sudo or something? | 21:35 |
| CShadowRun | coolkehon: 1) If the card is broken, bestbuy are morons for leaving it in 2) Unplug it, it's a waste of power. | 21:35 |
| metho | yes | 21:35 |
| metho | sudo | 21:35 |

| defrysk | coolkehon, turn the internal card of in your bios so it wont be used | 21:36 |

| ente | I was just asking what sense a /home.bin makes? | 21:40 |
| iLikeYou | koshari: I want where are they installed on the hard disk. Like in Windows, you can right-click an icon, then Properties, then Find Target | 21:40 |
| dsnyders | iLikeYou, Out of curiosity, why do you want to know? | 21:40 |
| ente | I have a ~/.bin, and I guess it makes a lot more sense | 21:40 |
| Flannel | ente: You've already got ~/bin, /home.bin doesn't make sense | 21:40 |
| iLikeYou | dsnyders: Out of curiosity! That's why :D | 21:40 |
| dsnyders | iLikeYou, Fair enough. | 21:41 |
| ente | for system-wide-but-local-installations, there is /usr/local | 21:41 |
| koshari | iLikeYou most apps are installed in the usr/bin | 21:41 |
| arand | iLikeYou: dpkg -L packagename will show it's contents | 21:41 |
| ente | Flannel: well, yes. but metho was talking about /home.bin | 21:41 |
| pauljw | iLikeYou, maybe open a terminal and type locate packagename | 21:41 |
| ente | which made no sense to me, so I asked what they meant by it. | 21:41 |
| Flannel | ente: /home.bin doesn't make an sense | 21:41 |
| ente | and then there started a discussion about what language not to use in here | 21:42 |
| Flannel | ente: ~/.bin isn't even what you want, you want ~/bin | 21:42 |
| metho | sorry it was /home/bin | 21:42 |
| jrib | metho: /home/your_username/bin | 21:42 |
| koshari | iLikeYou it dont really matter where they are (binaries)as long as they are in your path | 21:42 |
| ente | no, ~/.bin is what I want because I consider ~/bin polluting ~ | 21:42 |
| Flannel | metho: You don't want /home/bin either, thats the homedir of the person named "bin" | 21:42 |
| ente | bin laden? :) | 21:43 |
| IdleOne | the . and / keys are close enough to each other that a user could of figured out it was just a typo. your cursing was not needed | 21:43 |
| metho | anyway without sudo i created a folder with mkdir ~/bin which was placed under /home/metho/bin | 21:43 |
| iLikeYou | koshari: "in your path"? Please clarify this sentence | 21:43 |
| abumaia | this is just a test message. I have my pidgin set to Invisible status, and none of my messages in this room have been replied to, so this is a test message to determine if my messages are getting through or not | 21:43 |

| Flannel | ente: Again, please stay ontopic, thanks | 21:43 |
| Myrtti | abumaia: yeah, they are getting through | 21:43 |
| metho | do i need to specify the path in .bashrc | 21:43 |
| koshari | iLikeYou your path is a list of locations where binaries can be called from | 21:43 |
| Flannel | metho: Have you logged back in since? | 21:43 |
| abumaia | thanks Myrtti | 21:43 |
| jrib | metho: logout and back in | 21:43 |
| Flannel | metho: No, but .bashrc checks to see if ~/bin exists (and if it doesn't, it won't include it) | 21:44 |
| === adante_ is now known as adante | ||

| hyperstream | rosco, every system speed, depends on to many different possible values. Hardware specs/drivers whats installed on the machines .... too much to compare. | 21:47 |
| svenbuntu | hi all | 21:48 |
| rosco | i can say that puppy is much faster than the other OS's i use. | 21:48 |
| z3r0-0n3 | my home directory is encrypted. how do I view my "hard drive" under computer in the places menu? | 21:48 |
| defrysk | rosco, then use puppy | 21:48 |
| ente | arch is faster than anything else I used before | 21:48 |

| iLikeYou | why the apps in ubuntu aren't located in a specified place? For example in Windows when you install a program, you can find it along all its file and directories in C:\Program Files/TheProgram. Why in Ubuntu the files are distributed among a lot of directories and locations? | 21:48 |
| metho | yeah it is a+x | 21:48 |
| metho | still no joy | 21:48 |
| ente | talking about windowmanagers just results in flamewars | 21:49 |

| === malnilion_ is now known as malnilion | ||
| ente | s/windowmanagers/desktop environments/ | 21:49 |
| Myrtti | iLikeYou: because Linux uses the file system hierarchy used before it in Unix systems. | 21:49 |
| rosco | it is too different for me. i must at least spend time with it as a secondary OS for a while | 21:49 |
| hyperstream | z3r0-0n3, places -> Computer -> "hard drive" | 21:49 |
| rosco | i don't use winders | 21:49 |
| ente | however, it applies to both | 21:49 |
| arand | iLikeYou: Since libraries goes in lib, binaries goes in bin, settings in etc, its' just the unix legacy... | 21:49 |
| Myrtti | iLikeYou: if you want to read more, "man hier" in your terminal will tell you more | 21:49 |

| charles__ | alright so I have a laptop that I would like to have back up a music directory to my server. How do I do this? I want to have the server directory only receive backups, never delete anything. | 21:50 |
| hyperstream | iLikeYou, its better organised, windows is not. | 21:50 |
| `mOOse` | guys - there's a website out there that has apt-games or aptgames and aptapps in the url somewhere - it's got a buncha games and apps on it - anyone have any idea what I'm talking about? | 21:50 |
| z3r0-0n3 | any ops: hyperstream is trolling, this has been the third time he sent ignorant messages to me, i suggest kick ban :) | 21:50 |

| metho | anyone | 21:50 |
| charles__ | I was thinking the way I wanted to do it was rsync it, and schedule it as a cron job, but I ma not really familiar with rsync | 21:50 |
| hyperstream | z3r0-0n3, actually, thats how you view your hard drive. perhaps if you had tried it first, you wouldnt have made yourself look silly just then. | 21:50 |
| defrysk | `mOOse`, getdeb.net and related | 21:51 |
| Myrtti | charles__: rsync is brilliant for that job, and it's not really too difficult to learn | 21:51 |

| jolaren | I installed Ubuntu server from annother computer. Now when I put it inside of my real server I get this error: "No network devices found" | 22:20 |
| novemberhascome2 | jrib: (WW) intel(0): Unknown vendor-specific block f is the only thing I see. | 22:20 |
| arand | jiohdi: one possibility is to use the -pae kernel, which will allow more memory while still on 32bit.. | 22:20 |
| jrib | novemberhascome2: pastebin please | 22:21 |
| z3r0-0n3 | jrib: as i mentioned, it cant be mounted because of an error | 22:21 |
| muri_one | gyles19: i'd try using a boot cd, chrooting into your system and trying to repair/reinstall packages from there | 22:21 |
| novemberhascome2 | jrib: my /var/log/Xorg.0.log? | 22:21 |
| hyperstream | jrib, its already mounted(his error) | 22:21 |
| jrib | z3r0-0n3: you didn't mention that... | 22:21 |
| jiohdi | arand, how do I do that without trashing everything... and having a degree in systems engineering | 22:21 |
| dsnyders | Fraxtil, nothing? Odd. | 22:21 |
| jrib | novemberhascome2: yes | 22:21 |
| gyles19 | Hyperstream, it's fine in 9.04, it's broken in 9.10. That's why I'm back at 9.04. Until update-manager went nuts the other day, I was fine. | 22:21 |
| microlith | using --pae these days is pointless | 22:21 |
| novemberhascome2 | jrib: All of it or the last 100 lines? | 22:22 |
| jrib | novemberhascome2: all of it, pastebin is free :) | 22:22 |
| dsnyders | Fraxtil, what about just plain who? | 22:22 |
| z3r0-0n3 | jrib: in any case is there anything you could do to help me? that would be much appreciated. | 22:22 |
| hyperstream | gyles19, :(, lspci and if you could please, let me know what card/chip etc it is, ill have a google around to see if its supported in 9.10, sounds like your 9.04 is definatly broken ;/. | 22:22 |
| jrib | z3r0-0n3: explain the error | 22:22 |
| novemberhascome2 | jrib: http://pastebin.ca/1789502 | 22:22 |
| arand | microlith: not if you require 32bit otherwise.. | 22:22 |
| `mOOse` | and was it EVER mounted? | 22:22 |
| z3r0-0n3 | jrib: unable to mount location /dev/mapper/sda3_crypt is mounted | 22:23 |
| gyles19 | Muri_one, is there a howto for doing that anywhere around? I don't know what happened with update-manager, I left it running when I went to work... Is there an 'undo' for update-managers? recent actions? | 22:23 |

| harjot | um guys do you know where i can get an older version of skype | 22:23 |
| jrib | z3r0-0n3: I presume that has nothing to do with windows though | 22:23 |
| z3r0-0n3 | jrib: i think i realize why now! both OSes are encrypted | 22:23 |
| jrib | z3r0-0n3: ah, then ok | 22:23 |
| jrib | z3r0-0n3: I don't know if you can mount encrypted ntfs or not | 22:23 |
| `mOOse` | z3r0-0n3, have you ever been able to see the windows drive? | 22:23 |
| `mOOse` | did this just happen or? | 22:24 |
| z3r0-0n3 | `mOOse`: no | 22:24 |
| Goliath | i use the winetricks script, and got a dll. where is it saved? | 22:24 |
| jrib | novemberhascome2: what ubuntu version? | 22:24 |
| `mOOse` | if ntfs is encrypted....um....I would think that would be a problem for a foreign OS to see | 22:24 |
| `mOOse` | I could be wrong but | 22:24 |
| jolaren | How do I reconfigure my network device? It cannot find my connection! It's because I installed ubuntu server from annother computer | 22:25 |
| `mOOse` | of course, some enterprising genius has probably written a little routine to fix that | 22:25 |
| Speedy2 | What's the package that gives me all the common development tools (autoconf, gcc, headers, etc)? | 22:25 |
| `mOOse` | just finding it though lol | 22:25 |

| jrib | Speedy2: is this a default install? What have you done to the system since installing? It seems strange i810 fails. Also, did you create an xorg.conf for some reason? | 22:26 |

| EntityReborn | Hello. | 22:29 |
| muri_one | gyles19: the bit about the kernel may are may not apply to you. couldhn't hurt to reinstall it anyway. the point is you should be able to use apt from there to reinstall/fix any packages if that is the source of your problems | 22:29 |
| jrib | novemberhascome2: it's a video driver. Are you sure the install completed successfully? | 22:29 |

| ubottu | edoceo: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 22:31 |
| jrib | edoceo: that link should tell you about old-releases.ubuntu.com | 22:31 |
| darthanubis | fixxxermet: no, because they is totally dependent on your machien and your needs which would exhaust the scope of this forum | 22:32 |
| pumuky1 | I execute apt-get upgrade | 22:32 |
| edoceo | jrib: nope - read those they asll say "To avoid damaging your system, upgrading should only be done from one release to the next release" | 22:32 |
| pumuky1 | I executed apt-get upgrade | 22:32 |
| jrib | novemberhascome2: I don't know. Certainly, the instructions on ubottu's link should be sufficient. The log doesn't mention shmconfig at all (I believe it does if it tries to enable it). See if you can figure out the package responsible for and make sure it's installed ok. I have to go now though | 22:32 |
| novemberhascome2 | jrib: OK. | 22:33 |
| jrib | edoceo: yes, and if you read the gutsy upgrade page it will tell you how to do so | 22:33 |

| jiohdi | and quicker | 22:43 |

| darthanubis | macman_: no | 22:44 |
| Fraxtil | For anyone who may be interested: I solved my problem concerning having no virtual terminals by reverting to my original /etc/network/interfaces file. It needed the "lo" loopback interface. | 22:44 |

| darthanubis | macman_: again, no way to tell with the way you describe it | 22:44 |
| defrysk | above 4 ram 64 bit can utilize all 8 cilynders | 22:44 |
| killaz | macman did you search on google set resolution manually ? | 22:44 |
| killaz | for ubuntu | 22:44 |

| justine777w | ekim1: i dont know how. I tried using the forums and installing redhat like i was supposed to but it is not working and now i am getting error messages in terminal when i try to continue | 22:52 |
| Dantonic | hi, I'm a little lost, just trying to install java Run time environment on Ubuntu 9.10... followed instructions on this link.. http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp anyone have any input | 22:52 |
| darthanubis | cphllps2: it'd be better for you to start with searchign the forums and posting there. Things go by too fast here for a new person | 22:52 |
| ekim1 | justine777w, what OS are you running? | 22:52 |
| paissad_ | what is the commande to change keyboard map , i do know loadkeys fr , but i have X running ^^ | 22:52 |
| jef91 | Dantonic - in terminal run: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin | 22:52 |
| darthanubis | Dantonic: you were not supposed to follow that. You were supposed to install from the repositiories. | 22:53 |
| justine777w | ekim1: Ubuntu 9.10 | 22:53 |

| darthanubis | !info ubuntu-restricted-extras | 22:53 |
| ubottu | ubuntu-restricted-extras (source: ubuntu-restricted-extras): Commonly used restricted packages. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 36 (karmic), package size 5 kB, installed size 32 kB | 22:53 |

| ubottu | To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java products search for sun-java6 -packages from the !Multiverse repository | 22:53 |
| Dantonic | oh... darn well darthanubis do I have to somehow uninstall that first now?? | 22:53 |
| darthanubis | just delete all that garbage and do it the way jef91 and I suggest | 22:54 |
| darthanubis | ubuntu-restricted-extras is what you want | 22:54 |
| trism | just so you know, java is no longer including in ubuntu-restricted-extras | 22:54 |
| ekim1 | justine777w, did you try system/admin/printing, then select new and have Ubuntu show you a list of drivers? | 22:54 |
| jef91 | Dantonic - in terminal run: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin | 22:55 |
| darthanubis | trism: that is icedtea? | 22:55 |
| YouDidWut | Anyone know how to save a mac change so that I don't have to change it every time I start my computer up? | 22:55 |
| justine777w | ekim1: yes i did and the dell 720 is not there and the lexmarks z600 is not there. apparently i have to download cups or something. I am confuse | 22:55 |
| YouDidWut | mac address change* | 22:55 |
| Dantonic | ok ty... just another question I performed this step following those instructions... not sure what it does: Create the symbolic link ln -s <Java installation directory>/plugin/i386/ ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so | 22:55 |
| darthanubis | YouDidWut: your router? | 22:55 |
| Dantonic | do I have to undo that first? | 22:56 |
| darthanubis | Dantonic: I did that for my 64bit system to give me a native 64bit java plufgin | 22:56 |
| ekim1 | justine777w, you will have to find another compatible one or try the cups thing. | 22:56 |
| YouDidWut | darthanubis, It's not the router, it's a wireless adapter... | 22:56 |
| darthanubis | I kept that change as it works | 22:56 |
| cryptk | Ubuntu how I love you... but you don't love me... my mouse constantly freezes... so while we have had good times in the past... nobody on IRC or the forum knows why this is happening... | 22:56 |
| darthanubis | YouDidWut: but your router would keep pthe mac assignments and or spoof them if it is a decent router | 22:57 |
| justine777w | ekim1: i dont know how to do the cups thing. I was wondering if someone could take me through step by step on how to do it. I looked at the ubuntu forums and I just do not understand them. | 22:57 |
| dinobisk | Is it possible not to view the "video area" and the playlist when playing audio files in Totem? They take up too much space. | 22:57 |
| jef91 | cryptk Ubuntu version and is it a new install? | 22:57 |
| darthanubis | cryptk: because it is not Ubuntu, it is your HW | 22:57 |
| cryptk | jef91 9.10 fresh install | 22:57 |
| jef91 | Does it do the same on other distros? | 22:57 |
| darthanubis | mouse freeze is always indicative of hardware being subpar | 22:57 |
| cryptk | darthanubis: it was working great until the HD died, then i did a fresh install... | 22:57 |
| ekim1 | justine777w, is it a choice under the system/admin/printer...should show cups as an option. | 22:58 |
| Dantonic | jef91, :Package sun-java6-plugin is not available, but is referred to by another package | 22:58 |
| cryptk | darthanubis it is a Logitech G7 and worked great before the HD crach, and works great in windows | 22:58 |
| justine777w | ekim1: where? | 22:58 |
| jef91 | Dantonic - open Synaptic (System->Administration->Synaptic) and search for "java" | 22:58 |
| Dantonic | do I have to enable a repository? | 22:58 |
| jef91 | Dantonic - maybe I know I always have medibuntu added on my systems (first thing I always do) so it might be in there | 22:59 |
| cryptk | that is what gets me... it was working perfect, I loved it.. and now that I am on a fresh install (you would think it would work great) the mouse freezes shortly after bootup | 22:59 |
| darthanubis | Dantonic: yes, it is in synaptic, check all the obvious boxes to check under repositories | 22:59 |
| cryptk | when it first go's into the OS the mouse works, then anywhere from 5 seconds to 5 minutes later the mouse stops working... | 22:59 |
| darthanubis | community sources and such | 22:59 |
| jef91 | Dantonic fyi - this is reason number 326 I suggest Mint over Ubuntu :) | 22:59 |
| darthanubis | Dantonic: +1 jef91 and look at medibuntu | 23:00 |
| Dantonic | ok so I see sun-java6-bin already installed version 6-16-0ubuntu1.9.04 | 23:00 |
| Shizuo | !offtopic | 23:00 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 23:00 |
| Dantonic | however when I do the test on the java website to see if an applet works it does not... | 23:00 |
| cryptk | anyone have any other ideas to try before I swap distros? | 23:00 |
| jef91 | Dantonic - add the medibuntu repos | 23:00 |
| Dantonic | and under firefox the "javan enabled" box ix marked | 23:00 |
| reya276 | I'm trying to mount an ipod touch with gtkpod but it tells me it can't create the /ipod directory in /media/. Can anyone help me with this | 23:00 |
| ekim1 | justine777w, go to system/admin/printer, then choose new printer and then it should check for printers and show you what it finds and cups is usually a choice. If not, try applications/add-remove software and install cups. | 23:00 |
| Dantonic | jef91, all right how do I go about doing that? | 23:01 |
| Dantonic | !medibuntu | 23:01 |
| ubottu | medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 23:01 |

| gyles19 | Ok, To the several kind folks who sent me links: 1 links leads to a hardware clock fix, that's not the error I'm getting. Another link suggested booting from a liveCD, using chroot into the broken partition, and using apt/dpkg to fix things. I'm looking for a HOWTO for doing that. My experience fixing broken packages dates back to RedHat RPMs and that simpler environment. | 23:01 |

| justine777w | jef91: how do i install cups? | 23:03 |

| aghaster | hi | 23:07 |
| jef91 | Hallo | 23:07 |
| Dantonic | jef91, The following packages have unmet dependencies: sun-java6-plugin: Depends: sun-java6-bin (= 6-15-1) but 6-16-0ubuntu1.9.04 is to be installed | 23:08 |
| jef91 | Yea - justine777w cups is installed on your computer, let me see what I can find on your printer | 23:08 |
| aghaster | I'm using ubuntu 9.10 on my laptop with a t6670 processor that supports intel vT | 23:08 |
| Dantonic | so I gotta get 6-15-1 first? | 23:08 |
| wOLFFF | I have a server with 6 ips and was wondering how to assign individual users with different ips | 23:08 |
| aghaster | I've enabled intel vt in the bios, but virtualbox will throw an error saying that while vt is enabled, it couldn't use it | 23:08 |
| justine777w | fuse2010: i do not know what cups is | 23:08 |
| jef91 | Dantonic - try this: sudo apt-get purge sun-java6* && sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin | 23:08 |
| aghaster | I've uninstalled kvm and made sure the module wasn't running | 23:08 |
| the_real_dave | !cups | justine777w: | 23:08 |
| ubottu | justine777w:: Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows | 23:09 |
| aghaster | is there any way to check what program is currently locking intel vt? | 23:09 |
| MK13 | wOLFFF, just assign then all static ip's ? | 23:09 |
| jef91 | the_real_dave - thats not very helpful to what she needs | 23:09 |
| Dantonic | haha it's installing jef91 thanks | 23:09 |
| jef91 | Dantonic - very good. That should do the trick | 23:09 |
| the_real_dave | jef91: I didn't get the full conversation. Excuse me if it was misplaced | 23:09 |
| igie | i'm using a live cd... my system hangs on boot up at *Starting samba daemon" any way to get past that or even to just log in so I can fix it by uninstalling winbind?? | 23:10 |

| Kismet | i cann see it in /media/iphone | 23:10 |
| jef91 | justine777w When you go to System->Administration->Printing - Does it find/show your printer? | 23:10 |
| justine777w | jef91: nope | 23:11 |
| jef91 | igie - remove it from /etc/init.d on your hard drive | 23:11 |
| wOLFFF | [ MK13: ] yes the network has a range starting with .214 - .220 trying to assoiciate lets say user jim to .214 and user same to .215 ect | 23:11 |
| wOLFFF | same = Sam ** | 23:11 |
| Kismet | anyone any idea how i can see it | 23:11 |
| igie | jef91: I can't seem to find my home folder /home/igie, will it work if i delete it from /etc/init.d ?? | 23:12 |
| MK13 | wOLFFF, do you want that to be handled by the dhcp server or just set the static ip up on the client side of jim's and same's computer? | 23:12 |
| Dantonic | jef91, I can't press the <Ok> button on the terminal based installation prompt... | 23:12 |
| jef91 | dantonic - press tab and then enter ;) | 23:12 |
| igie | jef91: I mean, i'm on a live cd, dosn't it block me from accessing user data? | 23:12 |

| iceroot | wOLFFF: can you disable your script? its hard to read grey text on black background | 23:23 |
| igie | jef91: thank you so much :) | 23:23 |
| Bruk0ut | i dont seen "driver ati" in xorg though, "out of hte box", which is why im confused | 23:23 |
| iceroot | Guest63836: ifconfig | 23:23 |
| PeterT | kazaa_lite: hehe, you're welcome | 23:23 |
| Speedy2 | Bruk0ut, It is there. If you're not sure if you're using it, check your /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 23:23 |
| Guest63836 | iceroot, public one not the local | 23:23 |
| erUSUL | iceroot: that wont be the public ip if it is behind a router | 23:23 |

| brokenbeat | Wow | 23:24 |
| protojay | are there any video editors that will let me cut small parts out of a larger movie? | 23:24 |
| erUSUL | protojay: avidemux? pitivi? openshot? | 23:25 |
| Inept | why does the desktop version not allow you to setup softrware RAID during install | 23:25 |
| Gateway` | iceroot, mobi-sheep thanks for help but is there a command using " dig " ? | 23:25 |
| iceroot | Inept: alternate does | 23:25 |
| Gateway` | any idea ? | 23:25 |
| Arsin | the_real_dave: I never made a pass key since I didn't register anywhere, what's that all about? | 23:25 |
| mobi-sheep | Gateway`: I'll just say no. | 23:25 |
| Inept | yea the server one does but then u have to dwonload all the gnome desktop | 23:25 |
| iceroot | Inept: no, the alternate, which is not the server edition | 23:26 |
| the_real_dave | Inept: you'd need to use the alternative install disk. It'll install the regular gnome desktop just through the text interface | 23:26 |
| iceroot | Inept: its a gnome-installtion with the alternate just with more options at setup | 23:26 |
| Inept | oh right i didnt check the alternate one | 23:26 |
| Inept | i thought it was only the server one that you could do it with | 23:26 |
| the_real_dave | Arsin: where exactly is that? | 23:27 |
| Arsin | the_real_dave: When I opened F@H VIA terminal it asked for a passkey | 23:27 |
| the_real_dave | Arsin: what command did you use to start F@H? Have you it installed as a daemon? | 23:28 |
| Arsin | the_real_dave: I haven't installed anything, downloaded and just ran it as "sudo ~/Desktop/Folding@Home/fah6" | 23:29 |
| iceroot | Arsin: maybe you mean the sudo-password? | 23:29 |
| Arsin | iceroot: Na, it was definetly F@H that asked for it | 23:29 |

| Arsin | jamie: If you can get it to work, I never got it to. | 23:30 |
| the_real_dave | Arsin: ok, did some Googling. It appears that the passkey is just used if you register your username, to stop anyone else using it. If you don't care, try leaing it blank | 23:31 |
| jamie | Darn, I heard recordmydesktop | 23:31 |
| Arsin | the_real_dave: Where can I register? | 23:31 |
| jamie | so i downloaded that, and now i cant find it. | 23:31 |
| mobi-sheep | Arsin: You can leave it blank. o.O | 23:32 |
| the_real_dave | Arsin: your registering by just give it a username and password when you run it | 23:32 |
| Arsin | mobi-sheep: I suppose, but I'd like to register so I can see myself on their site; right now I have no idea where I am on the site | 23:32 |
| mobi-sheep | jamie: How did you download recordmydesktop? Just run "recordmydesktop" in the terminal. | 23:32 |
| the_real_dave | Arsin: or when you install it even. Does it ask for a username when you run the script directly? | 23:33 |
| ZykoticK9 | jamie, a little while ago i was looking into screencast software - i got the best results using ffmpeg (cli app) with something similar to "ffmpeg -f x11grab -r 25 -s 1024x768 -i :0.0 -vcodec huffyuv -sameq screencast.avi" | 23:33 |
| Arsin | the_real_dave: It asks for user/passkey/team# | 23:33 |
| jamie | AHh i had to get gtk-recordmydesktop too | 23:33 |
| jamie | Its the front end. to it | 23:33 |
| jamie | SO now it works | 23:33 |
| the_real_dave | Arsin: if you don't care about a username just leave the user and password blank. If you want to be known as whatever, give it a username. If you want noone else to be able to use that username, give it a password. Simple as, you don't need to register anywhere :) Just make sure you use team 45104 ;) | 23:35 |

| ke1ha_ | I use both, FAHMon, and HFM.net, prefer HFM.net as I rsync my data to an external web-server | 23:40 |
| the_real_dave | Arsin: far as I know you need to run F@H. Fahmon just reads and show data from the logs | 23:40 |
| ke1ha_ | with either client, all you do is add the clients that are folding to the config, then it will show you all sorts of info. to much to go into here. | 23:41 |
| capron | Is there something special in a ubuntu kernel ? Seems to be a special way of compile the kernel | 23:42 |
| Arsin | the_real_dave: Hmm. My progress is N/A what's up with that? | 23:42 |
| the_real_dave | Arsin: you need to add and configure the clients | 23:42 |
| ke1ha_ | Arsin: FAHmon is just a clinet monitor, see Folding at Home How-Too's on Stanords site for install instructions. | 23:43 |

| Arsin | ke1ha_: I can't run it with 9.10 x64? | 23:52 |

| ke1ha_ | You dont want to do a GUI, slows the box to much, you the finstall script, then control it it simply with ./folding start / stop / status / reload | 23:54 |
| mhaedo | capron: i don't mind compiling from source. i compiled most of my plugins. do you know for certain that option exists? | 23:54 |

| capron | mhaedo, ohh I have no clue dont even know what option you are looking for | 23:56 |
| mhaedo | capron: well thanks for the tip. i hadn't thought of compiling a newer version from source, that may be a viable option | 23:56 |
