| psycho_oreos | mortus, xubuntu is pretty lean (xfce frontend) I'm running it right now on my boxen | 00:00 |
| blakkheim | psycho_oreos: xubuntu is almost just as bloated as regular ubuntu in my opinion, i wouldn't recommend it for an older system | 00:01 |
| blakkheim | david__HII: what video card you have? | 00:01 |
| karl_ | hi any know of any blackberry downloads to use my blackberry as a modem? | 00:01 |
| david__HII | let me look blakkheim | 00:01 |
| Devrethman | david_HII: Do you have the right graphics drivers installed? | 00:01 |
| maggs | karl_: I've heard stuff about barry | 00:01 |
| david__HII | i dunno Devrethman | 00:01 |
| psycho_oreos | blakkheim, not that I'm running it on older machine but I liked xfce generally | 00:01 |
| kisuke | karl_ you should not need any thing | 00:02 |
| maggs | but not really looked into it myself, as I don't use my blackberry as a modem | 00:02 |
| psycho_oreos | though most of the bloat not only comes from X but from various services set to start when the system starts up anyway | 00:02 |
| karl_ | Y SHOULD I NOT NEED ANY THING | 00:02 |
| karl_ | what have you heard about barry? | 00:03 |
| Lanlost_ | damnit, suddenly my usb stick is being mounted read only | 00:03 |
| david__HII | blakkheim: it the Intel® 945G chipset | 00:03 |
| kisuke | karl_ you just need to set up a mobile broad ban connection | 00:03 |
| maggs | karl_: from my memory barry is a programme for tethering the blackberry in ubuntu for use as a modem, but the posts i remember it from are old old old | 00:03 |
| karl_ | i have tried but i cant connect to it there is no connect button | 00:03 |
| mortus | psycho,ubottu,black,jef...You guys rock...thank you...12mg a HeII of a lot better than 681 8-) | 00:03 |
| kisuke | karl_ right click your internet connection in the tray(upper right corner) | 00:04 |
| karl_ | kisuke yep | 00:04 |
| mortus | ok,not last question but important one, i'll install that one one now, whats short step to get basic Network Wired,Firefox,LPD,Samba,and some basic Xwin apps on top without flooding it with Garbage??? | 00:04 |
| kisuke | karl_ select edit connections | 00:04 |

| Lanlost_ | anyone? | 00:06 |
| Lanlost_ | know why my USB stick is suddenly mounting itself as read only? | 00:06 |
| kisuke | maggs should be able t use bluetooth | 00:06 |
| Lanlost_ | It's auto moutning.. I've been using it all day fine and then all of a sudden now I can't do anything on it | 00:06 |
| so0ky | hello, sorry for my noobiness. I got a cannot open output file xxxx.pkg . What should I do to allow my server to open .pkg files? | 00:07 |
| kisuke | karl_ try and follow the prompts | 00:07 |
| maggs | kisuke: that would probably involve setting bluetooth up on my eee ^^ | 00:07 |
| maggs | like i say, something to play with another day | 00:08 |
| karl_ | kisuke i click apply then nothing happens? | 00:08 |
| jay_storm | hi | 00:08 |
| === dmbq is now known as Guest31556 | ||
| === jay_storm is now known as JayStorm | ||
| kisuke | karl_ it might take a minute | 00:09 |
| kisuke | karl_ try clicking apply again | 00:09 |
| karl_ | do i have to change number and things like that? | 00:09 |
| e-i-k-e | what is the .xsession-error file in my home directory? | 00:09 |
| `mOOse` | Lanlost_, is this booting ubuntu from the usb? | 00:09 |
| Some_Person | How can I reset the improperly unmounted flag on a non-journaled HFS+ partition from Linux without access to an OS X machine? | 00:09 |
| mortus2 | I bounced myself somehow, did anyone come back about basic Xwin,Network,LPD stuff? thanks... | 00:10 |
| Some_Person | This flag prevents Linux from being able to write to it | 00:10 |
| kisuke | karl_ number should be your phone number, you might need to call you provider for the other information | 00:10 |
| kisuke | what it the full command to mount with the remove_hiberfile option? | 00:10 |
| kisuke | maggs i see | 00:10 |
| mortus2 | psycho,you still around? | 00:10 |
| meowbuntu | hi wine update ppa has caused an error on my comp now i cant install anything http://pastebin.com/d399de51 | 00:11 |
| hansaplast | Does somebody know how to write a message to /var/log/messages during boot? | 00:11 |
| Lanlost_ | `mOOse`, .. no.. | 00:12 |
| bazhang | meowbuntu, so edit the sources.list.d and comment out the offending repository with a # , or correct it by removing the 'n' | 00:12 |
| so0ky | hello, sorry for my noobiness. I got a cannot open output file xxxx.pkg . What should I do to allow my server to open .pkg files? | 00:12 |
| Lanlost_ | This is plugging my USB stick into my computer .. im in linux. | 00:12 |
| jrib | so0ky: umm, why do you have a .pkg? | 00:12 |
| Lanlost_ | its auto mounting as read-only. I umount it and then sudo mount -o rw /dev/sdd1 /media/USBSTICK and it mounts fine but then is read only | 00:12 |
| so0ky | when i do this command ./steam it is trying to download hldsupdatetool_34.pkg I think, and it cannot open that output file. | 00:13 |
| so0ky | i am not sure what to do | 00:13 |
| jrib | so0ky: does valve not provide any documentation? | 00:13 |
| anom01y | what is the media player of choice for Gnome / XFCE ??? | 00:14 |
| so0ky | the readme is not helpful at all | 00:14 |
| anom01y | Amarok2 kinda sucks, Rhythmbox crashes and doesn't support libvisual | 00:14 |
| jrib | so0ky: link? | 00:14 |
| so0ky | i feel like the readme is outdated compared to their current system. may i copy and paste from my server? | 00:14 |
| anom01y | I need something that does everything | 00:14 |
| anom01y | and not VLC cause its playlist sucks | 00:14 |
| karl_ | hi | 00:14 |
| karl_ | hi no sorrry didnt work | 00:14 |
| jrib | !player | anom01y | 00:14 |
| anom01y | and I don't need video | 00:14 |
| ubottu | anom01y: Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Audacious, Banshee, Beep Media Player, Listen, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, Exaile, XMMS2 (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based). Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine - See also !codecs | 00:14 |
| meowbuntu | bazhang, how do i | 00:15 |
| jrib | !who | so0ky | 00:15 |
| ubottu | so0ky: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 00:15 |
| jrib | so0ky: use pastebin | 00:15 |
| anom01y | !xmms2 | 00:15 |
| ubottu | xmms is no longer being developed, see http://bugs.debian.org/461309 for more details. Consider using audacious, bmpx, or xmms2 instead. | 00:15 |
| bazhang | meowbuntu, gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d edit the file, save it, then sudo apt-get update and see if that fixes it | 00:15 |
| meowbuntu | bazhang, i added it in software sorces ppa | 00:16 |
| so0ky | jrib: i'm sorry I am completely new to Linux. how exactly do I go about doing that? | 00:16 |
| jrib | so0ky: can you just link me to what you are trying to install? | 00:16 |
| anom01y | which player supports libvisual ? | 00:16 |
| anom01y | (besides XMMS) | 00:16 |
| so0ky | jrib: one second | 00:16 |
| duffydack | Anyone know why I would have unallocated space like this? http://www.duffydack.karoo.net/gparted.png ... I installed win7 on empty hd, gave it 50gig and then installed ubuntu.. what gives? | 00:16 |
| bazhang | anom01y, why do you need libvisual? audacious replaced xmms, unless you need a streaming server or the like | 00:16 |
| anarki2004 | rhythmbox supports libvisual i believe | 00:17 |
| meowbuntu | bazhang, fyi sources.list.d is not a file. you meant sources.list | 00:17 |
| jrib | so0ky: there's no .pkg. Just grab the hldsupdatetool.bin and run it | 00:18 |
| david__HII | ok so i found out my chipset blakkheim | 00:18 |
| teckan | i am trying to get my microphone working under my laptop dell latitude e6500. sound output is ok both from builtin speakers and headphones (i hear what expected when i do $speaker-test -Dplug:front -c2 -l5 -twav). however, i cannot record anything, either with the builtin micro or an external one. | 00:18 |
| teckan | my alsamixer configuration is here: http://img708.imageshack.us/img708/7104/201002151266189947.png and the codec driver for this snd-hda-intel model is ok - it is indeed the IDT 92HD71B7X. any help/suggestions will be greatly appreciated :) | 00:18 |
| anom01y | anarki2004, no it doesnt | 00:18 |
| teckan | i am not a suse user but i'm sure your help will be valuable anyway (my $uname -a returns "Linux mhq 2.6.29.6 #3 SMP Mon Dec 7 15:01:06 CST 2009 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T9600 @ 2.80GHz") | 00:18 |

| anarki2004 | anom01y: i seem to recall just messing with libvisual in rhythmbox | 00:19 |
| bazhang | meowbuntu, right, well edit whichever file is in there for wine | 00:19 |
| anom01y | hmm | 00:19 |
| BluesKaj | duffydack, well, format those unallocated partitions and expand the bordering partitions into them | 00:19 |
| === andi is now known as Guest38949 | ||
| bazhang | meowbuntu, in my sources.list.d the file is somepackage-ubuntu-ppa-karmic.list | 00:21 |
| duffydack | BluesKaj, they arent in the extended area.. "It is not possible to create more than 4 primary partitions" | 00:21 |
| BluesKaj | duffydack, the first one might some kind of windows boot | 00:21 |
| duffydack | BluesKaj, Doesnt explain why they exist like that.. Ive not done anytihng I havent done 1000 times, installing ubuntu | 00:21 |
| bazhang | duffydack, dual booting win7 and ubuntu karmic, fresh install of win7? | 00:21 |
| duffydack | BluesKaj, sda1 is boot partition for win7.. yes fresh clean install, from sccratch | 00:22 |
| duffydack | sorry I mean bazhang | 00:22 |
| duffydack | bazhang, BluesKaj it works ok, I`m just curious as Ive never seen a configuration like this..... | 00:23 |
| BluesKaj | duffydack, i think you got your answer | 00:23 |
| duffydack | lol | 00:23 |
| pitbullthe1st | Hi all I just have a quick question. what is the command to get the encription password from a home dir? | 00:23 |
| piero | Who has the stupid idea of translate the Desktop folder in non-english locales? I have "Área de Trabalho" in my home. While whitespaces are not a good idea alone, with acents it looks like a hell | 00:23 |
| duffydack | ok | 00:23 |
| quentusrex | Anyone know why there is an issue with the 'time' command when inside an sh shell? | 00:23 |
| live_wir | has anyone tried | 00:24 |
| jrib | quentusrex: there isn't? | 00:24 |
| bazhang | duffydack, iirc the installer in karmic has a hard time with the 100mb /boot partition that win7 creates; how new of an install is this? I got around it by using gparted to edit a single ntfs partition, and then the appropriate partitions for ubuntu (including separate home) with a gparted livecd then installing win7 and did not experience that issue again | 00:24 |
| Sagaci | how much does a normal 32bit ubuntu desktop install take up | 00:24 |
| jrib | pitbullthe1st: are you kidding? | 00:24 |
| pitbullthe1st | no | 00:24 |
| quentusrex | jrib, there is. I logged into a 9.10 kvm virtual server, and into an sh shell. And time is not found. | 00:24 |
| pitbullthe1st | when you install the dir it gives you the command | 00:25 |
| meowbuntu | bazhang, there is no sources.list.d file i am on ubuntu 9.10 | 00:25 |
| jrib | quentusrex: I don't understand your point. What's your question? Why are you running sh yourself? What are you trying to accomplish? | 00:25 |
| live_wir | Has anyone tried linuxsurvival.com? I try running module 1 and I can't make it past table 3 | 00:25 |
| pitbullthe1st | I can get in to it when I log in but I want to reinstall | 00:25 |
| quentusrex | jrib, I'm trying to run make test after building openldap. It has sh tests. And one of them calls time. And it can't be found. | 00:25 |
| jrib | piero: see ~/.config/user-dirs.* | 00:25 |
| quentusrex | jrib, So I logged into an sh shell and sure enough time isn't found. But it is found in the bash shell... | 00:26 |
| bazhang | meowbuntu, you must have missed my last post; go to that directory and edit the file within it or remove it entirely | 00:26 |
| piero | thanks jrib. | 00:26 |
| jrib | quentusrex: sh points to dash by default. dash has time here. | 00:27 |
| duffydack | sorry, can you repeat what you said last.. my programs froze, I had to ctrl-alt-f1 and kill them, odd | 00:27 |
| quentusrex | jrib, it doesn't have it here. I just provisioned a kvm virtual server. | 00:27 |
| quentusrex | jrib, I have found that many packages are missing in the default virtual server install. | 00:28 |
| meowbuntu | bazhang, http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-wine/ppa/ubuntu only in software sources app nor sources.list weird that | 00:28 |
| pitbullthe1st | jrib: I have an encripted home but it decrypt is linked to my user password there is a command to get the password if the dir is decrypted whitch it is | 00:28 |
| bazhang | meowbuntu, from the error you posted, it should be in the directory /etc/apt/sources.list.d | 00:30 |
| jrib | quentusrex: erm, what "default virtual server" install? | 00:30 |
| live_wir | Can someone try linuxsurvival.com, try loading module 1, and on table 3 tell me if you see the picture? | 00:30 |
| quentusrex | jrib, I have double checked. when logging in as a user with /bin/sh as their shell, I can't run time. Is there a way to fix this? | 00:30 |
| quentusrex | jrib, the kvm virtual server provisioning script. | 00:30 |
| live_wir | I don't know if it's an error on my end, or an error on the websites end | 00:30 |
| ujjain | I am going to install Ubuntu on an empty partition, I can now perfectly boot Windows7, is there any risk? | 00:30 |
| bazhang | ujjain, no | 00:31 |
| jrib | quentusrex: is this from ubuntu.com? | 00:31 |
| live_wir | ujjain: that's how I have mine set | 00:31 |
| quentusrex | jrib, yes. | 00:31 |
| jrib | quentusrex: link? | 00:31 |
| ujjain | How will I be able to select to boot Ubuntu? | 00:31 |
| ujjain | Will Windows automatically install a boot loader? | 00:31 |
| live_wir | on startup | 00:31 |
| ujjain | So I can multiboot? | 00:31 |
| Sagaci | ujjain: at bootup via grub | 00:31 |
| Sagaci | ujjain: ya | 00:31 |
| ujjain | Great! | 00:31 |
| bazhang | ujjain, karmic? then grub2 | 00:31 |
| ujjain | I dont want grub to become main partition lol. | 00:31 |
| live_wir | ubunutu installs grub2, boot manager | 00:31 |
| Sagaci | ujjain: it's called dual booting | 00:32 |
| ujjain | Well, grub will be fine :) | 00:32 |
| quentusrex | jrib, https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/ubuntu-vm-builder.html | 00:32 |
| pitbullthe1st | ok well thanks for the help have to go now and feed the baby ttfn | 00:32 |
| quentusrex | jrib, it is also called a JeOS install: https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/jeos-and-vmbuilder.html | 00:32 |
| live_wir | ubunutu will be first boot priority, if you do not select windows in 5 seconds it will boot in to ubunutu automatically | 00:32 |
| Sagaci | ujjain: lots of people dual boot to keep windows to play games and specialised applications | 00:32 |
| jrib | quentusrex: I see. All I can tell you is that on both my debian install and my karmic dash has "time" | 00:33 |
| quentusrex | jrib, do you know how to 'give' dash time? | 00:33 |
| jrib | quentusrex: how exactly are you testing? | 00:33 |
| quentusrex | is it just a missing symlink? | 00:33 |
| jrib | quentusrex: apparently, there's nothing to be done. time is a shell built in | 00:33 |
| quentusrex | jrib, 'su - mail' then 'time' | 00:33 |
| quentusrex | jrib, I'm logged into this server as root. | 00:34 |
| jrib | quentusrex: wait, no it's not. It just points to /usr/bin/time. Anyway, does that work? (with the full path) | 00:34 |
| quentusrex | jrib, can't be accessed... | 00:35 |
| jrib | quentusrex: does /usr/bin/time exist? | 00:35 |
| quentusrex | nope, doesn't exist either. | 00:35 |
| richard123 | Hi, can anyone help me select the right Adobe version for ubuntu | 00:36 |
| jrib | quentusrex: erm, are you sure this is a complete install? I assume you don't have the "time" package installed | 00:36 |
| richard123 | http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=10&platform=unix | 00:37 |
| === FeiRuoWa is now known as zz_FeiRuoWa | ||
| bazhang | richard123, adobe version of what | 00:37 |
| anarki2004 | richard123 I think you want the *.deb | 00:37 |
| quentusrex | jrib, it is a complete JeOS install. But like I said... there are many packages that I would consider 'core' that aren't installed by default. | 00:37 |
| live_wir | ya, you want the deb version of adobe flash | 00:37 |
| ujjain | My ubuntu installer does not recognize wireless usb keyboard and mouse. | 00:37 |
| dAlfa89_ | Richard123, why don't you install from the Ubuntu repos? | 00:38 |
| richard123 | I tried this one but does not run or anything? | 00:38 |
| bazhang | richard123, flash? then install from synaptic package manager | 00:38 |
| richard123 | I mean A.Reader | 00:38 |
| quentusrex | jrib, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DashAsBinSh seems to be a known issue. | 00:38 |
| bazhang | richard123, acroread? | 00:38 |
| quentusrex | jrib, known issue that doesn't google well. | 00:38 |
| richard123 | bazhang, yes. | 00:39 |
| ujjain | ubuntu installer does not recognize wireless usb keyboard and mouse when it enters the install, I can use the keyboard/mouse when I select the language, but not anymore when I install the language in the installation. | 00:39 |
| bazhang | richard123, should be in medibuntu.org | 00:39 |
| Pirate_Hunter | brasero keeps giving me errors when burning DVD disk log - http://paste.ubuntu.com/376536/ can someone tell me what is causing the error? | 00:39 |
| richard123 | Lookinf for this: Adobe Acrobat Reader | 00:41 |
| FeedHunter | eh why | 00:41 |
| bazhang | richard123, its called acroread | 00:41 |
| ujjain | The Ubuntu installer does not recognize my wireless usb keyboard and mouse when it enters the actual install, I can use the keyboard/mouse when I select the language, but not anymore when I install the language in the installation. | 00:41 |
| jrib | quentusrex: except you should have time installed by default | 00:41 |
| richard123 | here http://packages.medibuntu.org/? | 00:41 |
| richard123 | bazhang: at that link? | 00:42 |
| quentusrex | jrib, yes. I think it should be, but JeOS install strips out everything it possibly can. Including wget and curl, and other packages too. | 00:42 |
| kad__ | hey ! i want messenger have webcam/voice other than aMSN coz it crash :( any ? thx | 00:42 |

| magn3ts | jrib, None of those work. I think I've looked at every wiki page that talks about synaptics or a touchpad. I have a 5,1 MBP and the guide says that touchpad disabling works in 5,1 but not 5,2. I kinda dout the accuracy of that seeing as while I typed this I inadvertantly switched channels multiple times :[ | 00:48 |

| ZykoticK9 | meowbuntu, sitting on Revolving Host... | 00:49 |
| jrib | magn3ts: anyway, just follow the instructions for synclient, works fine on my macbook | 00:49 |

| sysdoc | timmarshall, dual boot what? | 00:53 |
| ujjain | Has anybody here been able to install Ubuntu with a wireless keyboard/mouse? | 00:54 |

| pitbullthe1st | sorry I think I might of asked the wrong question before. I think I should have asked how to get the encryption key for an encrypted home dir | 01:02 |
| jaypur | live_wir, just a sec i'll go to linux at the netbook | 01:02 |
| live_wir | jaypur: bcmwl-kernel-source to be exact | 01:03 |
| jaypur | live_wir, go to the manager... wait... | 01:03 |
| bazhang | pitbullthe1st, a forgotten encryption key? | 01:03 |
| jaypur | live_wir, bcmwl-modaliases is installed | 01:04 |
| pitbullthe1st | yes kind of | 01:04 |
| ujjain | The RHEL isntaller does recognize my wireless USB keyboard and mouse, but the Ubuntu installer does not, what could it be? | 01:04 |
| live_wir | jaypur: make sure you've updated the list, type bcm in search, and bcmwl-kernel-source should pull up | 01:04 |
| live_wir | that's what you need | 01:04 |
| pitbullthe1st | my home dir is encriped and when I installed it there was a message that said to type in this command and it would show me the password/key and I should take note of it but i did not. | 01:05 |
| jaypur | live_wir, i can't donwload anything, i don't have internet... because it does not have the wi fi driver for linux | 01:06 |

| ujjain | Hi, my wireless mouse/keyboard is not recgonized by Ubuntu installer, but is by RHEL installer, what could this be? | 01:08 |
| Christopher_Mill | A small question: What would cause both 32bit and 64 bit versions of 9.10 to hang at 47% during "Scanning disks" at install? | 01:08 |
| Lee_Ubun | meowbuntu: I did what you said, so lets see if it happens again. Or was there something I was suppose to do after that? | 01:09 |

| histo | xfact: there is supported hardware section of the wiki.ubuntu.com | 01:09 |
| xfact | Christopher_Mill, The easiest guess is, the disk is not all right. | 01:09 |
| histo | Christopher_Mill: controller issue or disk issue | 01:10 |
| Christopher_Mill | Thought that myself, xfact, until I swapped in a known good working HDD. | 01:10 |
| xfact | histo, bazhang Thanks but I do not think all the hardwares will be available on our locality | 01:10 |
| histo | Christopher_Mill: you can hit alt+f4 should show you some output of what the installer is doing. Then alt+f1 to get back to installer | 01:10 |
| histo | Christopher_Mill: unless you are using the gui installer | 01:10 |
| bazhang | xfact, perhaps not, check the list nonetheless | 01:10 |
| histo | Christopher_Mill: you may want to try the alternate iso. | 01:10 |
| Christopher_Mill | Funny thing is, Win7 and XP installs fine | 01:10 |
| xfact | Christopher_Mill, yea, it' really funny | 01:11 |
| bazhang | Christopher_Mill, sounds like either a bad burn, a corrupted iso (check the md5) or bad burn media | 01:11 |
| Christopher_Mill | I find it amusing, at any rather. | 01:11 |
| Christopher_Mill | Thanks for the help | 01:11 |
| histo | bazhang: doubt its bad burn on both isos | 01:11 |
| histo | bazhang: stopping at exactly the same point | 01:11 |
| bazhang | histo, only one way to find out is eliminate them as a point of issue | 01:12 |

| bazhang | xfact, check the supported webcam list or the ubuntu forums | 01:15 |
| navetz | any ideas on whats wrong? | 01:15 |
| bazhang | xfact, it will work (ie be supported) or not, the windows drivers don't come into it | 01:15 |

| kanuha | histo, ok, thanks. I went into /etc/default/grub and changed the linux recovery option, but I think that just applies to new updates. | 01:17 |
| histo | carbm2: limit the number of kernels grub displays on boot kanuha wants to know how | 01:17 |
| fraddiz | if i'm using terminal console in ubuntu, i know i can use cd and dir to browse various directories, but what is the command to open up the file browser window for a folder? | 01:17 |
| bazhang | xfact, if it supported, then yes it will auto-detect | 01:17 |
| xfact | bazhang, Thanks | 01:17 |
| navetz | mb_again: it is a usb connection | 01:18 |
| histo | kanuha: nvm the howmany option isn't really availible | 01:18 |

| bazhang | torasuku, karmic? grub2? | 01:19 |
| torasuku | bazhang, yes. | 01:19 |
| mb_again | navetz: assuming the usb port is fine (if not tested then try something else to be sure) you can sudo tail -f /var/log/messages in a term and then plug it in. if error message let me know | 01:19 |
| fraddiz | does anyone know how to open up the default file browser window from ubuntu terminal? | 01:19 |
| bazhang | torasuku, /msg ubottu grub2 for the wiki | 01:19 |
| torasuku | bazhang, thank you. | 01:19 |

| fraddiz | :) | 01:20 |
| srepfler | is there something I can do in order to install 9.10 withouth deleting the user directory and user | 01:20 |
| bazhang | srepfler, have a separate home partition, or move the home to a separate partition? | 01:21 |
| histo | kanuha: if you don't want to add in suport yourself by editing the grub.cfg you can install startupmanager. It should be able to handle adding it. | 01:21 |

| Zane | whats ur name? | 01:22 |
| histo | kanuha: see if it has support for grub 2 | 01:22 |
| carbm2 | kanuha, What are you trying to do with grub2... I missed the original question. Are you trying to add another option in grub? | 01:22 |
| mb_again | navetz: unfamiliar to me, I will look around, anybody else know the trick to mounting detected scsi generic? | 01:22 |
| kanuha | carbm2, no, trying to limit the boot option choices | 01:23 |
| yabbo | ok i dont know wtf i did but i was trying to get samba working with ubuntu 9.10 and wimdows 7 and some how i no longer have reverse DNS working on my ubuntu system although i can do nslook and have it resolve... my /etc/resolve.conf has my dns server listed and i even specified it in my ip address still nothing | 01:23 |
| navetz | mb_again: thanks | 01:23 |
| fraddiz | hey histo if i'm using ssh to connect to my account on another computer, i want to transfer files between this computer and my remote computer. so i thought using nautilus to opent he file browser wouold allow me to drag and drop, but it won't let me. do you know how i can easily transfer files ? | 01:23 |
| yabbo | fraddiz: use scp | 01:24 |
| carbm2 | haven't seen that option in grub2.... I know you can disable the recovery console... Is it because its too long??? or confusing? | 01:24 |
| carbm2 | and you could just delete the older kernels from synaptic. | 01:24 |
| carbm2 | and rerun update-grub | 01:24 |
| srepfler | right, so you say just copy the folder, reinstall and then put files back | 01:25 |
| mb_again | navetz: looks like it's an ok device, just not in the automounter. Make a directory to mount it, (or use /mnt ?) and sudo mount /dev/sg2 /mnt or similar you need the sudo because it is probably root owned | 01:25 |
| fraddiz | o ok thanks i'll read about scp | 01:25 |
| blakkheim | fraddiz: sftp or scp | 01:25 |
| Lee_Ubun | I just got logged out again after I ran the live CD --> went to GParted and check the partition. Still same thing is happening. I don't know what causesing this? | 01:25 |
| kanuha | carbm2, just too many showing. I want it to just show two linux images like it used to before. | 01:25 |
| navetz | mb_again: I am having trouble finding the actually drive right now | 01:26 |
| carbm2 | kanuha, You'll need to delete your older kernels from synaptic then rerun "sudo update-grub". I'm not sure and haven't read on a way to limit to just one or 2 kernels. | 01:26 |
| navetz | mb_again: http://pastebin.org/91791 that is my dmesg log | 01:26 |
| yabbo | ok how about this... im trying to install 9.10 on a 64bit AMD chip and when i click on english and then install ubuntu i get a screen with a bunch of colors all over flashing... almost like the video is set too high or something how can i finx that? | 01:26 |
| kanuha | carbm2, thx, I'll try deleted the plder kernels | 01:27 |
| histo | carbm2: grub 2 doesn't have the option | 01:27 |
| histo | yabbo: what type of video card? and what version of hte installer are you using? | 01:27 |
| histo | yabbo: ex: gui or alternate iso. | 01:28 |
| carbm2 | It doesn't look easy to edit /etc/grub.d/10_linux to limit to only 1 either. | 01:28 |
| yabbo | i have tried 9.10 32 bit desktop and 64bit desktop i have an nvidia video card in it | 01:28 |
| navetz | mb_again: thanks for the help, im gonna go watch some basketball and come back to fix this | 01:28 |
| histo | carbm2: you can edit grub.cfg and do it | 01:29 |
| mb_again | navetz: looks ugly. Either it is a FAT filesystem on the drive and it's sick, or linux decided to mount it at a FAT filesystem in error and got seriously confused. I see you are off, have a great afternoon | 01:29 |
| kanuha | carbm2, should I get rid of the images and headers? | 01:29 |
| histo | carbm2: but its not easy. but thats the only way if you still want to keep the old kernels but just limit the number displayed. | 01:29 |
| hikenboot | anyone able to recommend any non-raid sata cards 2-4 port compatable with ubuntu and openfiler and freenas? | 01:29 |
| histo | yabbo: is there still an option for safe graphics from the main menu on the cd? | 01:30 |
| hikenboot | cheap is ideal | 01:30 |
| yabbo | not sure i dont think i saw one let me try and see again | 01:30 |
| === commander__ is now known as _CommandeR_ | ||
| histo | yabbo: if not on the menu it will say hit f6 for options or something like that. | 01:31 |

| yabbo | yes there was a safe mode i had to hit F4 to have it show up though didnt know that as i have never needed it before :p | 01:32 |
| kanuha | carbm2, should I get rid of the images and headers? | 01:32 |
| carbm2 | kanuha, I believe so. Just keep the latest version. | 01:33 |
| histo | yabbo: the other option is to try the alternate iso. Has text based installer | 01:33 |

| torasuku | What's the command to see what kernel is running at the moment? | 01:34 |
| carbm2 | torasuku, uname -a | 01:35 |

| bazhang | pitbullthe1st, you are here | 01:37 |
| pitbullthe1st | yes | 01:37 |
| bazhang | dasen, ie rolling release? | 01:37 |
| nick125 | dasen: Depends. Usually, unless there are security fixes, they don't update. | 01:37 |
| pitbullthe1st | I found what I was looking for I had to install ubuntu on a VM lol | 01:38 |
| dasen | nick125: what can u do if you wanna have the latest version of all your programs? | 01:38 |
| kanuha | carbm2, histo removing old kernels with synaptic. will let you know what happens. | 01:38 |
| histo | dasen: not exactly yonly bug fixes | 01:38 |
| newfierich | hey all, I am trying to install a driver in terminal but I get errors because i don't have root access. What command do i type in? | 01:38 |
| pitbullthe1st | is "ecryptfs-unwrap-passphrase" | 01:38 |
| histo | dasen: install updated ones your self or install ubuntu+1 | 01:39 |
| carbm2 | kanuha, you'll have to run "sudo update-grub" when your done | 01:39 |
| dasen | histo: what is ubuntu+1? | 01:39 |
| histo | dasen: if you only need one app updated I sugest downloading the source and installing your self. | 01:39 |
| carbm2 | kanuha, You can check by typing "grep menuentry /boot/grub/grub.cfg" If only two things return then your in luck. | 01:39 |
| bazhang | dasen, Lucid | 01:39 |
| histo | dasen: system is unstable with bleeding edge software. | 01:40 |

| ayam_jago | can i use it?? or maybe i need to dl the notebook version? | 01:41 |

| ayam_jago | i mean netbook remix | 01:43 |
| kanuha | carbm2, histo ok, that worked. now to reboot and make sure everything still works. | 01:43 |
| salvachn | intel works fine out of the box in all distros | 01:43 |
| ayam_jago | maybe its for notebook version?? | 01:43 |
| histo | ayam_jago: download the netbook remix iso and install | 01:43 |

| ayam_jago | i have install ubuntu for desktop @ my aspire 4732z | 01:44 |
| histo | ayam_jago: okay just install ubuntu dekstop on your notebook then. | 01:44 |
| ayam_jago | do i must to use the netbook remix in there? | 01:44 |
| dasen | histo: before I used ubuntu I used debian, and it was great because you'd have the repositories pointing to 'unstable' and all the software was bleeding edge, I loved it, and the system only breaked every so often. Is ubuntu lucid like that? I mean, with bleeding edge software but possibly broken? | 01:44 |
| histo | ayam_jago: netbook remix isn't really for that just for smaller screen resources. | 01:45 |
| ayam_jago | i have installed, but the Graphic driver is not decected | 01:45 |
| ujjain | Does this mean 9.10 is not supported? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsKeyboard | 01:45 |
| histo | ayam_jago: okay what type of video card do you have and what do you mean its not detected? | 01:45 |
| ayam_jago | histo: ok thanks, but how can i install Intel GMA 4500M driver? | 01:46 |
| histo | ayam_jago: are you having a problem with video? | 01:46 |
| histo | ayam_jago: because the driver should be installed already | 01:46 |
| bmatthew | ayam_jago: intel drivers should be pre-installed, if you are talking about effects, you can enable those in the appareance menu | 01:46 |
| ZykoticK9 | dasen, Lucid uses newer versions of most software then Karmic, but it's not a rolling update either - once the versions are set, that's what is included with that version (except for major flaws or security reasons) | 01:46 |
| Craig_Dem | That's why you use ppas of programs. | 01:47 |
| ujjain | Does this mean 9.10 is not supported? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsKeyboard Does this mean 9.10 is not supported? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsKeyboard | 01:47 |
| histo | dasen: the only way to get hte newest versions of everything or close to it would be debian unstable | 01:47 |
| ayam_jago | it shown monitor picture at panel menu with something yellow look like a warning (sorry for my bad english) | 01:47 |
| histo | ujjain: your question makes no sense | 01:47 |
| Flannel | ujjain: No | 01:48 |
| ujjain | histo: It lists 9.04. | 01:48 |
| ujjain | But my Ubuntu 9.10 does not recognize the mouse/keyboard | 01:48 |
| ujjain | and I have the Ex110 | 01:48 |
| Flannel | ujjain: It means that no one's tested that keyboard with 9.10 (or at least, no one whos commented on that page) | 01:48 |
| histo | ujjain: the wiki just hasn't been updated | 01:48 |
| topo | Hi, does any one knows how to get net-applet to pick the right security type for wifi?? WPA, WPA2 WEP whatever oon 9.10 | 01:49 |
| ujjain | Hmm,, should I use an old version of Ubuntu? | 01:49 |
| histo | ujjain: you may want to search the forums for you keyboard model number | 01:49 |
| ujjain | legacy USB mode is enabled, but STILL it does not work. | 01:49 |
| Flannel | ujjain: No, 9.10 will likely work | 01:49 |
| ujjain | I did that. | 01:49 |
| adifire | anyone knows rdflib in python? | 01:49 |
| ZykoticK9 | topo, i don't think that's something the nm can figure out - you have to specifically tell it what type of encryption you are using. | 01:49 |
| histo | ujjain: does the keyboard work in the bios or other os? | 01:49 |
| ujjain | Yes | 01:49 |
| ujjain | It works in Windows7, it works in BIOS, it works before the actual Ubuntu installation software | 01:50 |
| megadeadmaker_ | Hi, how can i change the port to connect to Efnet on XChat | 01:50 |
| ujjain | So, the basic menu | 01:50 |
| histo | ujjain: okay is it possible that the system is hung and your keyboard and mouse work? | 01:50 |
| ujjain | No, I tried 4 times | 01:50 |
| ujjain | .with reboots in between | 01:50 |
| darolu | ujjain: I'm pretty sure your keyboard will work, probably not all its keys (i.e. if it is a multimedia keyboard) but you should be able to type just fine. | 01:50 |
| ujjain | no key worked. | 01:50 |
| ujjain | and mouse did not work either. | 01:50 |
| histo | ujjain: if you plug in another keyboard does that one work? | 01:50 |
| ujjain | I have no other keyboard | 01:51 |
| histo | ujjain: okay then how are you sure that the system is not locked up at the login screen? | 01:51 |
| ujjain | I can choose 5 options, install, 'just try', and that works, but when I click install and it loads, it does not work. | 01:51 |
| topo | ZykoticK9: what if Im doing different logins in various networks and I dont know the security protocols, Hotels, cyber cafés etc | 01:51 |
| ujjain | there is no login screen in installer :) | 01:51 |
| * histo screams! | 01:51 | |
| ujjain | when the first page of installer comes, mouse and keyboard do not respond. | 01:51 |
| ZykoticK9 | topo, you could try them all? | 01:51 |
| histo | ujjain: Maybe the installer hung. Try hitting ctrl+alt+f1 | 01:52 |
| ujjain | I rebooted 4 times | 01:52 |
| histo | I give | 01:52 |
| ujjain | and started ubuntu installer again | 01:52 |
| ujjain | same issue 4 times | 01:52 |
| histo | ujjain: its possible that the installer is hanging at the same point everytime and your keyboard and mouse are just fine. | 01:53 |
| rahduke | can i use a 64gig SDcard as OS harddrive? | 01:53 |
| ujjain | histo: Hmm,, | 01:53 |
| ujjain | it could be. | 01:53 |
| ujjain | how do I test? | 01:53 |
| histo | ujjain: thats what i've been trying to tell you. | 01:53 |
| ujjain | histo: I am sorry, my English is not great. ctrl+alt+f1 will test | 01:53 |
| rahduke | my HDD just died and im looking at SSD's but they are crazy expensive, why cant I just use a 64gig SD card as my ubuntu OS HD? | 01:53 |
| topo | ZykoticK9: theres 6 different protocols login in would take for ever. It's this just a linux thing??? | 01:54 |
| histo | ujjain: Try switching to a tty with ctrl+alt+f1 when it hangs if that doesn't work. Then boot in the just try mode and double click the installer on the desktop see what happens. | 01:54 |
| ujjain | ok :) | 01:54 |
| marc__ | ujjain, you install from a home-made CD? if so have you tried to burn another, maybe it's corrupted, happen to me once and the install froze everytime. | 01:54 |
| cornwall | Hi, the Linux metapackage has the 2.6.31-17 kernel installed, but the most recent one I see in the repos is 2.6.31-19. Any reason? | 01:54 |
| ujjain | I will try that too | 01:54 |
| ZykoticK9 | topo, ? i don't know for sure - i'd guess you have to specify the encryption on other OSs as well though. | 01:54 |
| histo | ujjain: I would also check the media as marc__ has suggested. Worst case scenario you can use the alternate iso. | 01:55 |
| rahduke | is there a way to move the C: drive folder of Wine to a seperate HDD when you install it? | 01:55 |
| ujjain | I will try this: ctrl+alt+f1 , burn ubuntu dvd again, reconnect keyboard/mouse usb hub, start from 'try ubuntu' and click install ubuntu from desktop. | 01:55 |
| ujjain | 4 things. | 01:55 |
| rahduke | anyone know where a guy can find a dead cheap SSD that is at least 30gig | 01:55 |
| histo | cornwall: my server is running .19 right now. | 01:56 |
| topo | ZykoticK9: how do you login when on the road | 01:56 |
| histo | rahduke: google | 01:56 |
| ujjain | back in 3min! | 01:56 |
| rahduke | Can i specify the location of my Virtualbox OS's? put the .vdi's on a seperate drive? | 01:56 |
| cornwall | histo, does updating the linux kernel depend on pulseaudio? I'm running my own version | 01:56 |
| cornwall | histo, I just found out that linux is being held back | 01:56 |
| ZykoticK9 | topo, typically when I have my netbook and am using another wireless connection - they tell you what encryption to use. | 01:57 |
| histo | cornwall: whats holding it back? | 01:57 |
| rahduke | i have lots of questions | 01:57 |
| cornwall | histo, d'oh! I'm stupid. Yep, pulseaudio-modules-jack is holding back the kernel | 01:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | !google > histo | 01:57 |
| ubottu | histo, please see my private message | 01:57 |
| marc__ | rahduke, yes | 01:57 |
| cornwall | histo, sorry to bother ;) | 01:57 |
| histo | ZykoticK9: no my answer was appropriate | 01:57 |
| rahduke | marc__: what about Wine? Can i specify a place to put "drive C:" | 01:57 |
| histo | ZykoticK9: he was off topic and told him to search google for the card. | 01:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | histo, i agree his question was OT but don't tell people to google it's rather rude | 01:58 |
| histo | ZykoticK9: if you want to answer where he can get a cheap ssd in here thats fine. | 01:58 |
| histo | !ot | rahduke | 01:58 |
| ubottu | rahduke: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 01:58 |
| marc__ | rahduke, dunno, I don't use wine, I have a VM for Windows XP (headless) and run my apps using the seamlessrdp tool | 01:58 |
| histo | ZykoticK9: I gave him my opinion | 01:58 |
| amadeus | hello I'm using Ubuntu version 9.10 and I want to add this line to /lib/udev/rules.d file, but its a directory KERNEL=="rtc0", GROUP="audio" how can I | 01:59 |
| histo | ZykoticK9: and answered his question | 01:59 |
| ZykoticK9 | histo, i would have been fine with you (doing what you just did) and sending him the !ot - but <person google> is not acceptable behaviour in this channel | 01:59 |
| histo | omg | 01:59 |
| rahduke | do you guys think that 32GB is large enough to house my 9.10 install once i put all the bells and whistles on it? I just want to use a 32gig SSD to house the OS and use my 2TB drive as storage for all my media, Virtual OS's and WINE... does that sound feesible? | 01:59 |
| lein | telling someone to goolge isn't as bad as in the old days when ppl where told to RTFM | 01:59 |
| zcat[1] | !rtfm | 01:59 |
| ubottu | Acronyms or statements like noob, jfgi, stfu, or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period. | 01:59 |
| zcat[1] | hehe.. | 01:59 |
| amadeus | The file is gone its just a directory now with files inside of it, which file should I add KERNEL=="rtc0", GROUP="audio" to? | 01:59 |
| histo | rahduke: 32gb is pleanty large enough | 01:59 |
| magn3ts | jrib, turns out, gpointing-device-settings will work beautifully even without enabling shmconfig! | 01:59 |
| sarthor | Hi how can i redirect 192.168.0.0/24 to 192.168.1.1:8080, | 01:59 |
| magn3ts | jrib, this is way better than the builtin gnome mouse pref panel. | 02:00 |
| histo | sarthor: do you have a router? | 02:00 |
| rahduke | histo: what do you think the is the smallest SSD i can get away with? keep in mind, i plan on using this thing forever.... | 02:00 |
| marc__ | rahduke, yes 32gb is enough | 02:00 |
| histo | rahduke: is it a full desktop system? | 02:01 |
| magn3ts | oh sweet joy. I've never been so less upset | 02:01 |
| rahduke | histo: yea, its my main box, its got a 2tb drive for storage but i just want to run the OS off SSD | 02:01 |
| Izinucs | sarthor: you want to direct 256 addresses to one port on one address? Why? | 02:01 |
| === eric_ is now known as talntid | ||
| sarthor | histo, yes , linux oruter ubuntu-server installed. Izinucs yes. | 02:02 |
| rahduke | histo: bear in mind that i will be using this lil SSD for as long as possible, eventually even Ubuntu gets really large after many upgrades | 02:02 |
| sarthor | Izinucs, there is index.html page, i wanna show them. | 02:02 |
| histo | rahduke: well lets put it this way my laptop with a bunch of kernels installed right now is using 5.2G for root | 02:02 |
| Izinucs | sarthor: so these people are outside your lan? | 02:02 |
| rahduke | histo: how many ubuntu revisions have u gone thru? | 02:02 |
| histo | rahduke: you also need a little bit of space for swap | 02:02 |
| Gla | who here is in charge of the #ubuntu community? | 02:02 |
| sarthor | Izinucs, yes. but i wannt to show them to pay and get internet | 02:03 |
| marc__ | rahduke, just move your /home to another HD and you'll never have to worry | 02:03 |
| histo | rahduke: and virtual box and all my apps are on here. | 02:03 |
| rahduke | histo: yea, the swap should be double my memory which is 4gb so figure on a 32gb ssd i will have 26gb of space | 02:03 |
| newfierich | hello all. Network manager is not showing any wireless networks. Does anyone have any ideas? I do have the newest version of my driver installed and everything works fine when i boot windows. I never had problems connecting to the internet will running ubuntu 9.04 or 8. For some reason 9.10 does not pick up any networks... any thoughts? | 02:03 |
| Boots32M | havin a problem everyone http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8827493 | 02:03 |
| Boots32M | got any ideas | 02:03 |
| rahduke | marc__: im always hesitant about moving my home folder, i tried it once and everything got screwed up | 02:03 |
| Gla | who here is in charge of the #ubuntu community? | 02:04 |
| rahduke | Gla: I am | 02:04 |
| marc__ | rahduke, I know what you mean, I don't move my home folder anymore but move all subdirectory to my storage unit (images, video, desktop, etc.) | 02:04 |
| histo | rahduke: swap deosn't always have to be double | 02:04 |
| rahduke | newfierich: what kind of setup are u using? laptop? card? etc | 02:05 |
| marc__ | rahduke, and I make sure to save stuff in a subfolder of /home | 02:05 |
| histo | rahduke: you could probably keep your /home on a different box but I don't know if thats recomended. | 02:05 |
| rahduke | marc__: yea man im nervous about moving home | 02:05 |
| Izinucs | sarthor: then in the router you'll have to forward port 80 to 8080 on the different subnet.. the addresses you give though are all internal IP's.. so you must have a machine working as your router on one subnet and supplying internet to the remaining part of the lan on a different subnet. | 02:05 |
| histo | rahduke: put your /home on the storage drive and just have / on the ssd | 02:05 |
| histo | !seperatehome | rahduke | 02:05 |
| histo | !home | rahduke | 02:06 |
| ubottu | rahduke: Your home directory is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For moving your home directory to a separate partition, please see: http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome | 02:06 |
| newfierich | rahduke: dell latitude 830, card NetXtreme BCM5755M Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express | 02:06 |
| rahduke | ubottu: you are the man.... | 02:06 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 02:06 |
| sarthor | Izinucs, , Virtual lan will work? | 02:06 |
| ujjain | It did not work. | 02:06 |
| histo | rahduke: my server is only using 1g for / the rest is all storage | 02:06 |
| rahduke | newfierich: are you tring to connect via wifi? | 02:06 |
| newfierich | rahduke: yes | 02:07 |
| rahduke | histo: you must have a fresh install | 02:07 |
| ujjain | ctrl+alt+f1 did not respond, reconnecting keyboard/mouse did not work, try ubuntu did not have working mouse/keyboard either. | 02:07 |
| histo | rahduke: no | 02:07 |
| rahduke | newfierich: are you trying to connect to using WPA? | 02:07 |
| histo | rahduke: thats my server my laptop is 4.5g for / on my laptop with all the garbage i have installed | 02:07 |
| Izinucs | sarthor: probably not.. virtual lan can have the same subnet on the different sections.. and is designed so traffic on one won't interfear or cross over to the other.. | 02:07 |
| newfierich | rahduke: wpa? I am connecting through a router | 02:08 |
| Izinucs | sarthor: so do these people come in to your network on a public IP? if so you might get away with something like dyndns.com | 02:08 |
| rahduke | histo: well im gunna give it a shot, I'll try it for a week or 2 and if it works well I'll stick with it... if not return the SSD and get a 1.5tb drive for the same price lol | 02:08 |
| histo | rahduke: you could go really small if you wanted and just put your /home on the network drive. is all i'm saying. | 02:08 |
| rahduke | newfierich: what kind of security is on your router? | 02:08 |
| histo | rahduke: what kind of ssd are you going to be using and is there a reason your going ssd? | 02:09 |
| newfierich | rahduke: wep 128 | 02:09 |
| ujjain | histo: ctrl+alt+f1 did not respond, reconnecting keyboard/mouse did not work, try ubuntu did not have working mouse/keyboard either. | 02:09 |
| newfierich | rahduke: but it doesn't pick up any networks at all. | 02:10 |
| marc__ | ujjain, I really feel it's your cd that is corrupted, I think you have an option in the menu to check the media? | 02:10 |
| histo | ujjain: hrm... did try ubuntu boot all the way to the desktop | 02:10 |
| ujjain | histo: Yes, it booted all the way. | 02:10 |
| histo | ujjain: ^^^^^^^^^^^^marc | 02:10 |
| ujjain | But it gave a text window with a few errors for a few seconds. | 02:10 |
| ujjain | marc__: I will burn a new iso on a new disk. | 02:11 |
| rahduke | newfierich: I don't think I can help you, I had issues with a new HTPC i built connecting to WPA router... its a bug in Ubuntu... your problem sounds unrelated. | 02:11 |
| marc__ | ujjain, was the error something like "unable to enumerate usb..." | 02:11 |
| ujjain | Uhhh, it was full-screen, about 3 errors, I can hardly remember. | 02:11 |
| rahduke | newfierich: if you can tell me what kind of wireless card you have I maybe able to help you further | 02:11 |
| histo | rahduke: you can use a memory card as your hd if you want they have adapters. | 02:12 |
| newfierich | rahduke:NetXtreme BCM5755M Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express | 02:12 |
| marc__ | ujjain, then check the media with the option in the menu, it will tell you if it's broken... but it might be faster to download a new iso and burn it again if you have high-speed internet :P | 02:13 |
| mjbrooks | odd... glxinfo | grep direct shows "direct rendering: Yes" but I can't enable compositing in KDE4 :// | 02:13 |
| histo | rahduke: compact flash with adapter is the way to go if price is the issue | 02:14 |
| ujjain | Yes, I will download a new iso :) | 02:14 |
| flacom | hi all.. how can Icopy the permission of onle file to another? | 02:14 |
| ujjain | currently downloading 3 iso's at once, so might take up to 5 min. | 02:14 |
| darolu | mjbrooks: try with compiz-check: http://forlong.blogage.de/entries/pages/Compiz-Check | 02:15 |
| darolu | flacom: do "ls -l" and see the permissions of the file you want to copy permissions from; then change permissions with chmod to whatever file or files you want | 02:16 |
| marc__ | Good night all | 02:17 |
| aj_ | if i forgot my password do i have to reinstall? | 02:17 |
| newfierich | rahduke: I just found someone with the same exact issue(same card). no solution yet though :S Guess i will have to go back to ubuntu 9.04 :< | 02:17 |

| darolu | aj_: are you the only user? | 02:18 |
| rahduke | newfierich: yea i hate to admit it but 9.10 has many bugs with wireless, i just about tore my hair out last week trying to get this box to connect to a WPA router, I finally plugged in a really old USB wifi card and for watever reason it helps the onboard card connect to a WPA2 wifi router | 02:19 |
| mjbrooks | darolu, compiz-check gives the thumbs up | 02:19 |
| pippin418 | is anyone else's volume extremely low, even at max? | 02:19 |
| pippin418 | rahduke: 9.10 sucks. I just updated, then I downgraded. | 02:20 |
| darolu | mjbrooks: what do you get when running compiz --replace? | 02:20 |
| renegaid | how do you create a software raid 0? | 02:20 |
| renegaid | seems like nothing is simple when it comes to linux | 02:20 |
| mjbrooks | darolu, I'm not using compiz... it's KDE4;s own effects I'm working on | 02:20 |
| histo | flacom: the -p switch of copy will presserve permissions | 02:21 |
| switchgirl | hi i have a AlcatelK OT-708/7ISK and want to sync with ubuntu karmic | 02:21 |
| darolu | pippin418: sometimes is the sound card and its driver; but you can check all your volume controls with "alsamixer" | 02:21 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | is there a good room to go to to find help with a wireless problem? | 02:21 |
| histo | renegaid: simple compaired to? | 02:21 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | it's probably something stupid, i just haven't had to deal with many wireless issues lately | 02:22 |
| meowbuntu | hi i am wanting to know how i can set up remote desktop between me and my friend at his place so far i have gotten this far http://imagebin.org/84846 does that mean i cannot do it. | 02:22 |

| renegaid | you know | 02:22 |
| PeterT | Don't type /who #ubuntu | 02:22 |
| socratesthekid | so hows everyone doing? | 02:22 |
| ujjain | qluite alright. | 02:23 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | pippin418, renegaid PeterT does anyone know where i should go to ask for help with wireless drivers on ubuntu? | 02:23 |
| renegaid | all I could fine on raid 0 is a long list of steps | 02:23 |
| Boots32M | I'm having network problems that are really frustrating... I can download some things, can't download others, trcrt and ping to Yahoo and Google... Y&G load good, but some sites don't load well.... My windows system on the same router has no problems, even plugged my wireless into my router and had the same problems wired as wireless. | 02:23 |
| PeterT | !wireless | 02:23 |
| ubottu | Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 02:23 |

| ubottu | mrwizeguy1983, please see my private message | 02:23 |
| pippin418 | mrwizeguy1983: wireless drivers? what distro are you using? 9.10, 9.04, etc. | 02:23 |
| Gla | hey ubottu, are you apart of the offical Ubuntu Community magament for IRC? | 02:24 |
| mjbrooks | thanks darolu | 02:24 |
| socratesthekid | yeah, i was wondering about wireless drivers myself... just installed ubuntu for the first time today | 02:24 |
| rahduke | meowbuntu: i can help you man | 02:24 |
| darolu | Gla: ubottu is not likely to reply, she is a bot | 02:24 |
| Gla | ah okay | 02:24 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | pippin418, i'm using 9.10 on a sony vaio vpcf115fm | 02:24 |
| Gla | well, could someone point me to whoever runs this channel? | 02:24 |
| Dr_Willis | renegaid: raid is a complex 'thing' - I dont bother with it any more. I dont need the features | 02:24 |
| rahduke | meowbuntu: you 1st need to make sure port 5900 is open on the remote computer | 02:24 |
| renegaid | just created a software raid in windows took two clicks. | 02:24 |
| meowbuntu | cool Ranakah | 02:24 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | i have just corrected my video driver issue, but even after using ndiswrapper for the wifi card it does not show up on nm-applet | 02:25 |
| renegaid | there is nothing complex about raid | 02:25 |
| Dr_Willis | renegaid: and it let you select ONE kind of raid... | 02:25 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | any ideas pippin418 ? | 02:25 |
| Dr_Willis | renegaid: windows removed a large # of options for you | 02:25 |
| psycho_oreos | mrwizeguy1983, pastebin your lspci -nnk output | 02:25 |
| meowbuntu | meaning my friends comp at his place | 02:25 |
| rahduke | Dr_Willis: You are basically the Mod here right? | 02:25 |
| Dr_Willis | renegaid: so do what you want | 02:25 |
| pippin418 | mrwizeguy1983: alright... i haven't used 9.10 (i just downgraded...) but goto system > preferences > restricted drivers | 02:25 |
| histo | renegaid: I beleieve you may need to use the alternate iso | 02:25 |
| meowbuntu | rahduke, can you pm me | 02:25 |
| renegaid | one? it had stripping mirroring | 02:25 |
| Dr_Willis | rahduke: Nope. I just dont have a life. Ops live in #ubuntu-ops | 02:25 |
| darolu | Gla: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines you'll find info and useful links there | 02:25 |
| pippin418 | mrwizeguy1983: or is it system > administration > restricted drivers | 02:25 |
| Dr_Willis | renegaid: good for it then. Have fun. If you have a ubuntu support question please ask it. | 02:26 |
| rahduke | Dr_Willis: lol, well user GLA needs to speak with one of the Wizards | 02:26 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | it's hardware drivers under 9.10 pippin418 | 02:26 |
| renegaid | I wanted to create a software raid 0 to install ubuntu | 02:26 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | i'm loading it | 02:26 |
| pippin418 | mrwizeguy1983: right.... do you see your card listed? | 02:26 |
| Dr_Willis | renegaid: you followed.read the !raid wiki/links guides then? | 02:26 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | the only thing i'm seeing is my nvidia card on that | 02:27 |
| Dr_Willis | For a raid setup I belive one has to use teh alternative nstaller cd. I may be wrong. I dont mess with raid any more (not in the last year+) | 02:27 |
| renegaid | the guides are old. so you are saying I need to follow all those steps to get raid? | 02:27 |
| pippin418 | mrwizeguy1983: what exactly is your problem with the card? | 02:27 |
| Dr_Willis | renegaid: check the forums perhaps see if thers updated guides. | 02:27 |
| histo | renegaid: and you can do so fromt he installer | 02:27 |
| * AK__47 slaps dmb__ around a bit with a large trout | 02:27 | |
| mrwizeguy1983 | pippin418, it's not showing up at all on the network manager, as if i hadn't installed anything | 02:28 |
| Dr_Willis | ive found raid more problems then its worth. Unless you got a good raid controller card. | 02:28 |

| pippin418 | mrwizeguy1983: is the adapter/card on? (like a switch) | 02:28 |
| renegaid | I can get it done if I use bios raid. think I'll just stick with that | 02:28 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | yes, it works fine on windows 7 pippin418 | 02:28 |
| pippin418 | mrwizeguy1983: alright... what is your card (atheros? intel?) | 02:29 |
| Dr_Willis | Ive seen people argue that software raid is not a 'good' idea. but thats what i hear. so no proof one wya or the other. | 02:29 |
| histo | renegaid: you can also do it with the installer but you aren't listening | 02:29 |
| histo | !who | renegaid | 02:29 |
| ubottu | renegaid: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 02:29 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | pippin418, it's atheros, the driver shows up as netathrx (the windows driver via ndiswrapper) | 02:29 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | pippin418, is there a pastebin like thing for screenshots? | 02:29 |
| pippin418 | mrwizeguy1983: just upload it to like tinypic.com and paste the link. | 02:30 |
| socratesthekid | so if i ask some noob questions, am I going to piss people off in here? | 02:30 |
| histo | !ask | socratesthekid | 02:30 |
| ubottu | socratesthekid: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 02:30 |
| renegaid | the installer has no options to create raid disk and I am not bothering with the alt cd. the instructions on the wiki is too long for software raid but bios raid works out the box so I will use that instead | 02:30 |
| histo | socratesthekid: and no everyone is very helpfull here | 02:30 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | http://tinypic.com/r/2zyl9qh/6 pippin418 | 02:31 |
| histo | renegaid: k. You use text based for windows install just like the alternate iso does but to each his own. | 02:31 |
| slyco | mrwizeguy1983: alfa usb works great with 9.10 | 02:31 |

| histo | wow there out in full force tonight. | 02:31 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | pippin418, did you get the link before the huge flood? | 02:31 |
| rahduke | mrwizeguy1983: what are you trying to do? | 02:31 |
| pippin418 | mrwizeguy1983: yeah | 02:32 |
| pippin418 | mrwizeguy1983: one sec | 02:32 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | rahduke, just trying to get wireless working on the new laptop, just installed ubuntu about 20 minutes ago | 02:32 |
| abelardo | looking for helpo with SQL | 02:32 |
| pippin418 | mrwizeguy1983: how are you connect now | 02:32 |
| histo | mrwizeguy1983: what type of wireless card | 02:32 |
| pippin418 | mrwizeguy1983: connected. | 02:32 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | pippin418, using ethernet atm | 02:32 |
| renegaid | from the instructions see on the wiki that is too many steps. I just created a raid array in the bios and ubuntu sees it as one disk so I'll use that instead | 02:33 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | histo, it's the b/g/n wireless atheros that comes in the vaio vpcf115fm | 02:33 |
| Dr_Willis | renegaid: problem solved then.. have a nice day. | 02:33 |
| Dr_Willis | 'too many steps' oh noes :) | 02:33 |
| renegaid | sorry I don't have all the time in the world | 02:34 |
| pippin418 | mrwizeguy1983: alright. so. just to make sure, ubuntu doesn't support your driver... | 02:34 |
| histo | mrwizeguy1983: I thought the atheros chipsets worked otu of the box. | 02:34 |
| newfierich | hey is there a place where i can download older versions of ubuntu? | 02:34 |
| pippin418 | newfierich: yeah search for your distro and download on google | 02:34 |
| Dr_Willis | newfierich: the ubuntu iso sites have links to all the old versions last i looked | 02:34 |
| socratesthekid | so i just installed ubuntu 9.1 on a fujitsu lifebook p1510d and have been unable to get the wireless card to work. I tried the lspci thing on the website, and i dont think it pulled up at all | 02:35 |
| pippin418 | newfierich: (that's how i hot 9.04) | 02:35 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | pippin418, i thought it would, i didn't see anything on the net, i searched for problems before installing ubuntu on this one | 02:35 |
| histo | newfierich: ubuntu.com click on the mirrors you can see all the older supported versions there | 02:35 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | histo, same as i said to pippin, i thought it was supposed to but it's not working at all | 02:35 |
| pippin418 | mrwizeguy1983: alright. so it didn't work before the windows drivers. | 02:35 |
| duckwars | when I ssh -X into my ubuntu computer, my computer doesn't type what I want it to. | 02:36 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | pippin418, no, at no point has it shown up in the network manager that i could search for wireless networks | 02:36 |
| Boots32M | socrates do you see the icon at the top right of your screen that looks like a cell signal indicator | 02:36 |
| rahduke | duckwars: wat do you mean? | 02:36 |
| duckwars | rahduke: I mean I type "w" and it shows "=" | 02:36 |
| histo | newfierich: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#mirrors | 02:36 |
| pippin418 | mrwizeguy1983: alright... whats the actual name of the chipset? | 02:37 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | here's the messed up part pippin418 i thought that the bluetooth was part of the wireless device on this laptop, but the bluetooth worked out of box and the wireless isn't | 02:37 |
| duckwars | rahduke: I mean I'm connecting to the server, and then I open firefox through x windows, and then i try to type in a url and it comes upw ith different letters | 02:37 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | pippin418, i have the specs on a pdf, let me find it and tell you, one moment | 02:37 |
| pippin418 | mrwizeguy1983: k | 02:37 |
| socratesthekid | Boots32M yes, I see it, but wireless doesn't even come up as an option. Wired and currently mobile are my only choices | 02:37 |
| histo | mrwizeguy1983: lshw or lspci would tell you some more info as well. | 02:37 |
| histo | mrwizeguy1983: and cards like the broadcom chipset would show up in restricted drivers manager. | 02:38 |
| rahduke | duckwars: i was having same issue, its some kinda weird bug but after disconnecting and reconnecting a few times it started working.... try making sure the remote computer has CAPSlock off... i dunno if actually helped but wen i took off caps it worked for watever reason | 02:38 |
| histo | mrwizeguy1983: but you need an alternate net connection to install the driver. | 02:38 |
| duckwars | rahduke: my remote computer has no keyboard hooked up to it | 02:38 |
| duckwars | \ | 02:38 |
| Boots32M | click on the cell signal indicator.... what do you see? | 02:39 |
| [1]saml | hey, which tool can I use to extract left or right track of wav file as mono wav? | 02:39 |
| nitor | exit | 02:39 |
| pippin418 | mrwizeguy1983: yeah use sudo lshw | grep product | 02:39 |
| Boots32M | <<<< not an expert but I just installed 9.1 Netbookremix myself | 02:39 |
| rahduke | duckwars: lol, its very strange... I'm not sure how it got fixed for me | 02:40 |
| Dr_Willis | [1]saml: done that with audacity in the past i recall. | 02:40 |
| Out_Cold | congrats Boots32M ;) | 02:40 |
| duckwars | rahduke: well I've only done this 2 times now, so I'm going to try logging off and on a couple times | 02:40 |
| socratesthekid | wired network disconnected mobile broadband verizon connection | 02:40 |
| Boots32M | I'm on the net, but its like surfin through molassas... | 02:40 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | ar2985 marvell atheros pippin418 | 02:40 |
| socratesthekid | i should have an atheros chip in my little guy... i'm assuming i need to download the drivers? | 02:40 |
| duckwars | rahduke: HA, got on a 3 time now it works | 02:41 |
| Boots32M | Oh you have verizon account for internet? | 02:41 |
| duckwars | rahduke: go figure | 02:41 |
| socratesthekid | lets say yes to make things simple? | 02:41 |
| rahduke | duckwars: how weird is that man, its really inexplicable | 02:41 |
| rahduke | duckwars: same thing happens over remotedesktop as well | 02:41 |
| Boots32M | thats just it I didn't have to download anything.... it just worked for me... but I have a averatec 1000 series netbook | 02:41 |
| duckwars | rahduke;I shall keep that in mind | 02:42 |
| Out_Cold | Dr_Willis, i found a pvc.sh script that encodes to mpeg4-avi. It uses mencoder and was about 3 times faster than the winff | 02:42 |
| Boots32M | are you sure you have a wifi card in your laptop??? | 02:42 |
| pippin418 | mrwizeguy1983: hmm... it's not in hardware/restricted drivers... windows driver doesn't work... and you're using 9.10? | 02:42 |
| Blue1 | !ie8 | 02:42 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | pippin418, http://pastebin.com/m3ffce31c is what you said to do | 02:42 |
| Dr_Willis | Out_Cold: winff is just a front end. the script is proberly using differnt options. or winff was using ffmpeg | 02:42 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | yes, 9.10 | 02:42 |
| Boots32M | you may only have the verizon cell internet... | 02:42 |
| socratesthekid | yes, its a fujitsu netbook/tablet | 02:42 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | and ran all updates | 02:42 |
| Out_Cold | Dr_Willis, yea the winff is using ffmpeg for sure.. | 02:43 |
| socratesthekid | so i did download 9.1 and not the netbook remix | 02:43 |
| Boots32M | Oh good thing to do is look on the fujitsu site and see if they have i386 drivers for your machine | 02:43 |
| Out_Cold | great script though | 02:43 |
| Dr_Willis | Out_Cold: so with the next/different version of ffmpeg it may be faster then the script :) hard to tell | 02:43 |
| Boots32M | or linux drivers or... maybe they actually say ubuntu drivers | 02:44 |
| Dr_Willis | Out_Cold: i gues theres some variants of mencoder/ffmpeg that can use the nvidia video card GPU's to do encoding work also - Not seen that trick yet however. | 02:44 |
| === Nightwolf42 is now known as Nightwolf | ||
| Out_Cold | i could see that happening.. using gpu cores for multi-threading is getting more and more common | 02:44 |
| Boots32M | averatec has an area for drivers for netbooks on linux but.... not for mine:( | 02:44 |
| pippin418 | mrwizeguy1983: hmm... it's not in hardware/restricted drivers... windows driver doesn't work... and you're using 9.10? | 02:44 |
| Dr_Willis | video encoding is such a.. 'interesting' topic | 02:44 |
| emmanuel | hola necesito ayuda con algo | 02:44 |
| jaypur | intel 945 gme driver for ubuntu, does any1 know??? | 02:44 |
| michal_ | anyone know how to make a simple scriP? | 02:45 |
| Dr_Willis | !intel | jaypur | 02:45 |
| ubottu | jaypur: Ubuntu 9.04 has a known regression for some Intel graphics support. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/IntelPerformance and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1130582 for more information. | 02:45 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | pippin418, that's all correct | 02:45 |
| socratesthekid | i'm 90% sure its an atheros chipset, can i just dl the driver from ubuntu? | 02:45 |
| jaypur | Dr_Willis, thanks | 02:45 |
| Dr_Willis | michal_: 2 lines --> #!/bin/bash echo 'hello world' | 02:45 |
| Dr_Willis | michal_: chmod +x te script , ./thescript | 02:45 |
| Out_Cold | michael_, start off with #!/bin/bash some commands below | 02:45 |
| pippin418 | mrwizeguy1983: that's weird. i don't find anything on google. i'm sure you've restarted right? | 02:45 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | pippin418, when i installed that windows driver on ndisgtk it said can not tell if device is present or something very similar to that | 02:45 |
| Dr_Willis | !abs | michal_ | 02:45 |
| ubottu | michal_: Advanced Bash-Scripting Guide, obtainable with ${package-manager} install abs-guide, is a quick and comprehensive guide to bash (command line) scripting in *nix systems. It is also viewable via web at http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/ | 02:45 |
| pippin418 | mrwizeguy1983: it's plugged in right.... | 02:46 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | restarted several times pippin418 but maybe i should restart without the windows driver installed and see if the updates might make it work? | 02:46 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | pippin418, it's built in lol but good call | 02:46 |
| michal_ | Dr_Willis: i have to to commands $sudo modprobe psmouse and $sudo modprobe -r psmouse..i want to incorporate them into one launcher | 02:46 |
| pippin418 | mrwizeguy1983: yeah but sometimes i switched mine and it wasnt plugged in the first time... you installed all of the updates right? | 02:46 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | yes, but can surely check again | 02:47 |
| Boots32M | when you actually get your internet working you may run into this problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8827493 | 02:47 |
| Boots32M | thats where I'm at right now | 02:47 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | checked twice pippin418 but i'm paranoid too, so i'll check again | 02:47 |
| Out_Cold | michael_, use 2 lines, 1 command on each | 02:47 |
| Dr_Willis | michal_: so make the script with more then 1 command after the #!/bin/bash | 02:47 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | pippin418, just did apt-get update and apt-get upgrade with no results | 02:47 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | fully updated | 02:48 |
| pippin418 | mrwizeguy1983: you installed all of the updates? System > Administration > Update Manager | 02:48 |
| michal_ | Dr_Willis: so will it run one or the other command depanding if the other was already ran? | 02:48 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | pippin418, yes, did that as well, though update and upgrade is same thing | 02:48 |
| pippin418 | mrwizeguy1983: hold on. i need to replace my battery. running critically low. | 02:48 |
| michal_ | Dr_Willis: its so i turn my touchpad off | 02:48 |
| Dr_Willis | michal_: it goes down the list running one after the others unless you script it to do otherwise | 02:48 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | oh, ok, thanks for trying so much pippin418 | 02:48 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | i'm going to reboot pippin418 and probably be back, going to see if rebooting again helps | 02:49 |
| michal_ | Dr_Willis: how would i script it run the 'on' command if mouse is off and 'off' command if mouse is on? | 02:50 |
| Dr_Willis | michal_: no idea how you can even tell IF its on or off., | 02:50 |
| Dr_Willis | michal_: make 2 scripts and run what one you want I guess is one way | 02:50 |
| Out_Cold | michael_,... nvm the Dr beat me to it | 02:50 |
| Dr_Willis | i got an on/off button on my laptop for my touchpad | 02:51 |
| michal_ | Dr_Willis: i do too but it doesnt respond in 9.1 | 02:51 |
| michal_ | Dr_Willis: i've been trying to figure it out for a while | 02:51 |
| Dr_Willis | michal_: you could proberly do a more compelx scrit that would load the module if its not loaded.. and unload it if it IS loaded. | 02:52 |
| Out_Cold | michael_, here is a link to a bash script.. | 02:52 |
| Out_Cold | http://bash.pastebin.com/pastebin.php?dl=f4480d948 | 02:52 |
| Boots32M | anyone got any ideas on how to solve the swiss cheeze surfin problem in ubuntu 9.1 netbook remix???? | 02:52 |
| michal_ | Dr_Willis: found this 'sudo modprobe -r psmouse' which removes the module | 02:52 |
| Dr_Willis | parse the output of lsmod | grep pattern some how | 02:52 |
| Dr_Willis | michal_: yes.. that removes it.. so readding it in the same script wont do much good. | 02:52 |
| Dr_Willis | michal_: make 2 scripts or learn some bash scripting i guess | 02:53 |
| archboxman | Boots32M: you talking about signal gain signal drop??? | 02:53 |
| Dr_Willis | michal_: or make it ask in a dialog what to do. :) | 02:53 |
| Out_Cold | can use qt to make a gui window | 02:53 |
| Boots32M | well I'm surfin for sure, but some sites just don't come up... | 02:53 |
| socratesthekid | so for my stupid question... when i download the driver from fujitsu, what do i do with it? | 02:53 |
| Dr_Willis | michal_: or check the forums theres proberly allreadya tool to do it | 02:54 |
| Boots32M | I can tracrt to google and yahoo but can't download all of opera | 02:54 |
| michal_ | Out_Cold: whats theat bash script for? | 02:54 |
| mikelifeguard | Is there a tool that can quickly count how many lines there are in a text file (or all the text files specified by a shell glob)? | 02:54 |
| michal_ | Dr_Willis: been trying to find it | 02:54 |
| Out_Cold | michal_, converting movies | 02:54 |
| Boots32M | only the initial file... then when ubuntu tries to get the last three packages, it can't. | 02:54 |
| archboxman | Boots32M: sorry use firefox I trust it | 02:54 |
| michal_ | Out_Cold: i see that.. why give it to me? | 02:54 |
| Dr_Willis | michal_: i would just make 2 scripts and have 2 icons that lanch one for pad-on and pad-off | 02:54 |
| Boots32M | I'm using firefox | 02:54 |
| Out_Cold | to show you what a script looks like | 02:54 |
| michal_ | Dr_Willis: got that..was trying to map it to sigle key | 02:55 |
| Boots32M | I tried to download opera because someone was having the same problem I was and they said downloading opera fixed it... | 02:55 |
| Dr_Willis | michal_: then you need to learn some more advanced bash then. | 02:55 |
| archboxman | Boots32M: bad site had that issue the other day with a torrent... :) | 02:55 |
| michal_ | Out_Cold: i see..thank you..i guess ill just have ot learn some | 02:55 |
| michal_ | :) thanks to both of you | 02:55 |
| Boots32M | Oh I get hung up on some of the most odd sites... | 02:55 |
| Dr_Willis | michal_: make the script use lsmod to see what modules are loaded.. if that module is loaded.. unload it.. if its not loaded.. then load it. | 02:56 |
| Boots32M | even when I'm pushing around in ubuntuforums.org three or for clicks in and it slows and stops... its just wierd | 02:56 |
| socratesthekid | i've found the drivers, and its asking me if i want to just open it with the archive manager, or save the file... suggestions? | 02:56 |
| Out_Cold | michal_, you may also find it easier to map your on/off switch to do that.. (without scripting) | 02:56 |
| archboxman | Boots32M: you kill cookies | 02:57 |
| woodyjlw | I like the looks of 10.04 :) it fixed my suspend and wake on my laptop that was broke with 9.04 and 9.10 | 02:57 |
| Boots32M | also the software center doesn't download anything at all... | 02:57 |
| Boots32M | Oh kill cookies... that'll do something?? I'll try it | 02:57 |
| archboxman | Boots32M: bad install or up date | 02:57 |
| archboxman | Boots32M: take that back bad install or update | 02:57 |
| michal_ | Out_Cold: haven't been able to find a way to map a that key... | 02:58 |
| Boots32M | the rest of the OS is smooth... just when I reach out into the cloud I get caught up like a fly on flypaper | 02:58 |
| archboxman | Boots32M: check your dmesg for errors when booting??? | 02:58 |
| Boots32M | love the startup speed and esp the shut down speed | 02:58 |
| Boots32M | How do I do that? | 02:59 |
| Boots32M | <<<<< nooooob:) | 02:59 |

| ZykoticK9 | Bookman, I'm not really an RTS guy - so don't know if there is a linux equivalent, the rating on WineHQ for Empire Earth seem rather erratic - everything from Garbage to Gold, depending on the reviewer (but if you already have EE perhaps it would be worth a try?) best of luck | 03:09 |

| meowbuntu | socratesthekid, you looked up google for help | 03:22 |

| Boots32M | so is it nano lspci -nn | 03:24 |
| Boots32M | ? | 03:24 |
| socratesthekid | meowbuntu, I've looked around some on google, didnt find anything that made much sense to me. found you guys on the ubuntu website | 03:24 |
| michal_ | ujjain: i havve two commands "sudo modprobe -r psmouse"=remove psmouse module and "sudo modprobe psmouse"=add the module... | 03:24 |
| Boots32M | or sudo nano lspci -nn? | 03:24 |
| ZykoticK9 | Bookman, gaming + linux = challenging (i'm not much of a gamer anymore, I was before I switched to linux) | 03:25 |
| ujjain | michal_ what do you want to do with those commands? | 03:25 |
| archboxman | mrwizeguy1983: thats not the hardware what card it is not going to help me with out wifi card type there are lots of Aethros drivers what card??? | 03:25 |
| michal_ | ujjain: i want to map 1 key to both commands..but it needs to do only one or the other command | 03:25 |
| socratesthekid | archboxman, if it's not seeing the hardware, what exactly does that mean for me? | 03:25 |
| ujjain | michal_: hmm,, good question. :P | 03:25 |
| michal_ | ujjain: add or remove psmouse module so touchapd will be disabled | 03:26 |
| archboxman | socratesthekid: do you have ON/OFF switch on this laptop | 03:26 |
| Bookman | ZykoticK9, neither am I, but this one particular game lends itself well to the computer interface. If there were something like it for the PS/2 I would buy it in an instant. | 03:26 |

| michal_ | ujjain:is there a way to see if psmouse module is loaded? | 03:27 |
| socratesthekid | meowbuntu, i'm trying to get ubuntu to read the wireless card at the moment. It isn't seeing the hardware at all | 03:27 |

| zoran119 | following these http://developer.novell.com/wiki/index.php/HOWTO:_Configure_Ubuntu_for_Active_Directory_Authentication | 03:33 |

| neezer | is opera better than firefox? | 04:07 |
| coz_ | neezer, I think that will be a personal choice ...I prefer firefox | 04:08 |
| John-_ | I tried opera and chrome for awhile | 04:08 |
| coz_ | neezer, both have pros and cons | 04:08 |
| John-_ | but I've been using firefox since I was a freshman in HS | 04:08 |
| coz_ | neezer, eve chrome has a few nice things | 04:08 |
| coz_ | neezer, are you having issues with firefox? | 04:09 |
| John-_ | chrome is faster than firefox at startup | 04:09 |
| neezer | coz_, thanks...can I just sudo apt-get install opera? | 04:09 |
| coz_ | neezer, I believe so but let me check for sure | 04:09 |
| neezer | How do you check? | 04:09 |
| neezer | is there a command to see? | 04:09 |
| === nick_ is now known as Guest46551 | ||

| pyr0path | hey got a question regarding 9.10. i am trying to download a package called w3af which is a framework used to find and exploit web application vulnerabilities. when i mark it for installation in the package manager it requires me to remove my recipe manager program | 04:12 |
| hyperstream | blah latest update killed my nvidia drivers ;/ | 04:12 |
| ogen | anezch: what is nautilus? | 04:12 |
| pyr0path | anyone know why and if there is a way around it? | 04:12 |
| coz_ | neezer, when you download the correct pacakge for your platform just doubleclick to install | 04:12 |
| Izinucs | hyperstream: that's typical if you installed the binary blob | 04:12 |
| disappearedng | I don't know why, but sudo touch /forcefsck seems way too fast in fscking | 04:12 |
| neezer | thanks coz_ | 04:12 |
| meowbuntu | pyr0path, is that to do with w3m browser by chance | 04:12 |
| hyperstream | Izinucs, is that the same as the 'restricted drivers' ? | 04:13 |
| pyr0path | yea | 04:13 |
| pyr0path | the gui | 04:13 |
| coz_ | neezer, actually instead of double clicking open a terminal | 04:13 |
| meowbuntu | pyr0path, close synaptic open terminal hold on just going to check commands | 04:13 |
| coz_ | neezer, cd to where you downloaded the package and tyep dpkg -i nameofpackage | 04:14 |
| Izinucs | hyperstream: the ones provided by ubuntu.. no.. they would be the driver direct from nvidia.. they break with each kernel upgrade and have to be reinstalled. | 04:14 |
| pyr0path | kk | 04:14 |
| neezer | well, I am installing it right now. | 04:14 |
| ogen | anezch: what is nautilus? | 04:14 |
| ogen | Nautilus is analogous to the Explorer in Windows (but my window calls it file browser) YES I do see my files in file browser -- as I said. see below | 04:14 |
| ogen | hello. all my desktop icons vanished - ubuntu gnome 9.10 - BUT Places still gives me all the files under desktop. | 04:14 |
| hyperstream | Izinucs, hmm not common on my end. ill reinstall i guess | 04:14 |
| coz_ | neezer, there is a library you will have to install and when the terminal tells you that simply type sudo apt-get install -f | 04:14 |
| neezer | will I need to do it if I am doing it through the GUI? | 04:15 |
| ardchoille | ogen: Run nautilus. Nautilus manages the desktop icons and it's possible nautilus crashed | 04:15 |
| coz_ | neezer, opera should then install and show up in the menu | 04:15 |
| neezer | coz_: I just chose the open file option when I downloaded it. | 04:15 |
| Izinucs | hyperstream: just the drivers .. not the entire system.. do a "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" .. see if that helps | 04:15 |
| ogen | hello. all my desktop icons vanished - ubuntu gnome 9.10 - BUT Places > desktop > opens file browser aka Nautilus and it still gives me all the files under "desktop". | 04:15 |
| meowbuntu | pyr0path, sorry i'm not to clued up but i know there is a way to force the install in terminal without removing the other app | 04:15 |
| anezch | ogen, nautilus is a file manager, like explorer on win. agreed with ardchoille, your nautilus is possibly crashed | 04:15 |
| ogen | ardchoille, the filebrowser works fine aka nautilus. | 04:15 |
| ogen | so do I need to reboot, like in Windows? | 04:16 |
| ardchoille | ogen: I'm sure nautilus does work fine, but close it and reopen and see if that helps. As I said, nautilus manages the desktop icons | 04:16 |
| pyr0path | meowbuntu ill try sudo apt-get install w3af and see if it is removed or not. thanks man | 04:16 |
| BHoward | Ogen, try sudo nautilus -q in your terminal. if not just do sudo killall nautilus | 04:17 |
| disappearedng | Hey when I cp from cd to my harddisk it says cannot copy IO error, is there a way to force cp to copy even if there's error? | 04:17 |
| ardchoille | !gksudo | BHoward | 04:17 |
| ubottu | BHoward: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 04:17 |
| pyr0path | ehhh its saying its gonna remove the gourmet recipe manager | 04:17 |
| pyr0path | hmmm | 04:17 |
| ardchoille | BHoward: and you don't need sudo for that | 04:17 |
| ogen | ardchoille, I;ve closed and opened it several times.AAHH new finding.. a right-click on the desktop does nothing. | 04:17 |
| BHoward | archodile sorry, so use to everthing having to be sudo'd | 04:18 |
| ogen | I moved the file that is my background pic, come to think of it. | 04:18 |
| neezer | Can I import my short cut buttons on top of my firefox browser to opera? | 04:18 |
| ardchoille | ogen: aha, something is wrong with nautilus. nautilus manages the desktop icons, right click menu etc. | 04:18 |
| pyr0path | ill check stuff out and be back on in a lil | 04:18 |
| anezch | ogen, Applications->Accessories->Terminal, and type killall nautilus | 04:19 |

| ardchoille | ogen: Ok, that is correct | 04:23 |
| ardchoille | ogen: I still think something is wrong with your nautilus | 04:23 |
| BHoward | ogen, I found a guy having the exact same problem as you in the forums. His solution was to use alt-f2 and run "nautilus &" its an old post but who knows. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=849089 | 04:23 |

| Eremite | I'm trying to get text to speech working in Ubuntu. I've downloaded Kmouth and KTTSmgr and I believe that everything is configured properly. I have selected a voice, and the "test" works and reads the text aloud. However, I cannot do ANYTHING else. How do I get this to work? | 04:55 |
| darkipod | list of my drives in my box http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m65fe947 and the error http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m63438ac5 when I try to use my new DVD rom drive | 04:55 |
| Shazam | firefox hangs, and kill and kill -9 won't make it die | 04:55 |
| xor | Hi there. | 04:55 |
| BHoward | socratesthekid, is your wifi card USB? | 04:55 |
| Eremite | Shazam, "pkill firefox" | 04:55 |
| Shazam | killall firefox does nothing, and typing it with sudo just hangs the terminal | 04:55 |
| Shazam | pkill | 04:56 |
| darkipod | looking for some help if any one can help me | 04:56 |
| Eremite | Shaun_, pkill | 04:56 |
| Kismet | ZykoticK9, hmm i can't see anything like sdx | 04:56 |
| socratesthekid | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d10fd7ffd lsusb | 04:56 |
| ZykoticK9 | darkipod, what is the command you are using to try and mount? | 04:56 |
| n00p | sounds like you need a line in your /etc/fstab Darkfoe | 04:56 |
| n00p | darkipod* | 04:56 |
| darkipod | no command | 04:56 |
| socratesthekid | bhoward, no... its an atheros super ag | 04:56 |
| Kismet | ZykoticK9, thers is something like that usb 1-4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 11 | 04:56 |
| ZykoticK9 | Kismet, you do know the X is a variable right? like sdb for example | 04:56 |
| Benbong | Shazam, try : ps aux | grep firefox | 04:56 |
| n00p | darkipod: cat /etc/fstab and pastebin it | 04:57 |
| Shazam | Eremite: I'll give that a shot next time it happens. I just had to go down to get to IRC to ask. but care to explain why that'll work when these other methods won't? I thought that a kernel kill terminate signal was about as strong as you could get | 04:57 |
| Kismet | ZykoticK9, yeah i know ;) | 04:57 |
| Benbong | Shazam: you'll see all the instance of firefox running | 04:57 |
| Eremite | I'm trying to get text to speech working in Ubuntu. I've downloaded Kmouth and KTTSmgr and I believe that everything is configured properly. I have selected a voice, and the "test" works and reads the text aloud. However, I cannot do ANYTHING else. How do I get this to work? How can I add a "job"? Nothing seems to work. | 04:57 |
| BHoward | hmm, is there a switch for wifi? try switching it then post your lspci again | 04:57 |
| darkipod | karmic just post the error when i click play on the cd icon | 04:57 |
| Shazam | Benbong: I got the proc number. I typed the processes. and that's exactly the point -- would not die after kill -8 <procnum> | 04:57 |
| Benbong | Shazam: have you tried sudo kill -9 pid ? | 04:58 |
| darkipod | i sec please | 04:58 |
| ZykoticK9 | Kismet, ok just checking. I have no idea how a jb ipod works - but typically you'd see a HD type situation with portable drives, which should show up in dmesg with a sdX letter that you could use to mount the drive. best of luck to you. | 04:58 |
| Benbong | Shazam: are you the ownder of that process ? | 04:58 |
| Shazam | Benbong: interestingly enough, that just serves to hang the terminal | 04:58 |
| Eremite | Shazam, pkill firefox will kill all processes with "firefox". Firefox runs at least two processes, one called "firefox" and another called "firefox-bin" (I think). The bin is ALWAYS the culprite for me. | 04:58 |
| n00p | darkipod: would you please do as I said? | 04:58 |
| Kismet | ZykoticK9, thanks | 04:58 |
| ZykoticK9 | Kismet, wanna PM me? | 04:59 |
| Shazam | Eremite: ps aux only shows the one proc for each (I have 5.0.17 and 5.7.x) | 04:59 |
| n00p | darkipod: if you're not going to do that then you may as well just look for your issue by trial and error because nobody here will be able to help you if you can't do simple things like cat /etc/fstab and pastebin... | 04:59 |
| darkipod | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m23cfa355 | 04:59 |
| Shazam | Eremite: and I've tried with each | 04:59 |
| n00p | thankyou! | 04:59 |
| xor | Does anyone know how to install phpmyadmin on Ubuntu? | 04:59 |
| socratesthekid | BHoward, didnt change the lspci at all | 04:59 |
| darkipod | just posted it | 04:59 |
| socratesthekid | the switch was to "on" but i figured maybe it was weird | 04:59 |
| ZykoticK9 | xor, "sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin" would be step one :) | 05:00 |
| BHoward | socratesthekid, Wow its not showing up at all | 05:00 |
| xor | ZykoticK9: I did that already, I can't log in now. | 05:00 |
| socratesthekid | BHoward, yeah.... thats my problem... I'm new here and have no idea what to do next | 05:00 |
| xor | ZykoticK9: I think I need to use the root credentials to log into phpmyadmin, but those don't exist on Ubuntu. | 05:00 |
| xor | So I can't log in. | 05:00 |
| Eremite | Has anyone here got Text To Speech working in Ubuntu? How did you do it? | 05:01 |
| BHoward | socratesthekid, give me a second let me do a bit of searching | 05:01 |
| ZykoticK9 | xor, ? haven't got it setup right now - i don't remember it requiring root (but maybe) | 05:01 |
| Benbong | Shazam: did you try to run something in firefox, like a falsh movie or something like that ? | 05:01 |
| Kismet | ZykoticK9, you have a solution? | 05:01 |
| taraduffy | Hi, I cant get any sound with a new installation of 9.10? Any advice please? | 05:01 |
| BHoward | socratesthekid, oh what laptop model do you have? | 05:01 |
| socratesthekid | fujitsu lifebook p1510d | 05:01 |
| xor | ZykoticK9: I tried logging in with my regular user and I can't, I tried root and failed as well. | 05:01 |
| n00p | darkipod: make a backup of your /etc/fstab and then sudo gedit /etc/fstab, change the first word of line 13 to /dev/sr1, save and retry | 05:01 |
| Shazam | Benbong: undoubtedly during a session, but I haven't been able to reliably determine what's causing it to hang. | 05:01 |
| ZykoticK9 | Kismet, not really - but do you want to pastebin the end of your dmesg for me? | 05:01 |
| Eremite | taraduffy, turn the volume up> The volume is turn off automatically bu default. | 05:01 |
| ZykoticK9 | xor, sorry man i don't remember - been too long and not currently running a web server | 05:02 |
| taraduffy | eremite: have done this. | 05:02 |
| Benbong | Shazam: can you identify a process taking alot of memory when you run top ? | 05:02 |
| Eremite | taraduffy, in terminal type :alsamixer and turn it up. | 05:02 |
| xor | np | 05:02 |
| Shazam | Benbong: I'll check it next time it hangs, but neither of me FF procs were taking more than 15 % | 05:02 |
| taraduffy | Eremite: what is full command line please? | 05:03 |
| phong_ | hi all | 05:03 |
| phong_ | how is everyone doing? | 05:03 |
| Eremite | taraduffy, alsamixer | 05:03 |
| Benbong | Shazam: Have you tried to update firefox, maybe it will solve the problem | 05:03 |
| rakesh | hello frndz | 05:03 |
| Benbong | Shazam: sorry I cannot think of something else at the moment | 05:03 |
| Shazam | Benbong: its the most recent in the apt repository | 05:04 |
| taraduffy | Eremite: have 3 bars showing white, green, red? | 05:04 |
| Benbong | Shazam:x86 or x86_64 ? | 05:04 |
| Shazam | Benbong: x86 | 05:04 |
| Shazam | Benbong: on 32 bit hardware | 05:04 |
| Eremite | taraduffy, yes. Turn them up (ie: make sure everything is at least in the green) | 05:04 |
| Benbong | Shazam: have you done some tweeking of firefox (like prefetch or anything)? | 05:05 |
| BHoward | socratesthekid, seems like most people just have trouble with the screen... Try booting into a live cd and see if your card is recognized | 05:05 |
| taraduffy | Eremite: all up max. No difference. | 05:05 |
| Eremite | socratesthekid, what is your exact problem? Screen resolution detection? | 05:06 |
| socratesthekid | Ermite no, it's not recognizing my wireless | 05:06 |
| Shazam | Benbong: no, nothing. A couple of extensions, I'm running greasemonkey and chatzilla. a fair number of others. but nothing absurdly wierd | 05:06 |
| Shazam | Benbong: and regardless. It shouldn't be the case that anything I do in user under FF should prevent the kernel from killing a process. | 05:07 |
| === Stik_ is now known as Stik | ||
| socratesthekid | BHoward, I installed from a live cd.... it wasn't reading it then either | 05:07 |
| Benbong | Shazam: you're right, if it crashes, you should be able to kill it no matter what | 05:07 |
| Benbong | Shazam: have you run memtest86+ ? that would be my last guess, if anything else is OK | 05:08 |
| Benbong | Shazam: I had some weird things happening just before my ram died | 05:08 |

| BHoward | socratesthekid, try the directions on this page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/AR5007 | 05:09 |

| Shazam | testing | 05:09 |
| Eremite | taraduffy, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1308034 start reading and get ready for a headache. | 05:09 |
| Benbong | Shazam, let me know if it is that :) | 05:09 |
| BHoward | socratesthekid, if this doesnt work i dont really know what else to try. Last time I had your problem my WIFI card actually went bad | 05:09 |

| Eremite | taraduffy, sudo apt-get install pulseaudio -- Then, open gnome volume control (right click > sound preferences) and make sure that Master, PCM and Speaker channels are ON. The reinstall of the pulse sound server should have added a new entry in the Devices List found at System Settings->Multimedia, called "Playback/recording through the PulseAudio Sound Server". use this as default sound server and voilà. (This advice from a Ku | 05:11 |

| jacquesdptd | i would like to install it but as a repo | 05:12 |

| altNull | benbong - what happens exactly? | 05:12 |
| Benbong | Shazam: maybe it was a soler eclipse :) | 05:12 |
| Benbong | altNull, I've updated the kernel from 2.6.32-13 to 2.6.32-17 | 05:12 |
| AntiProxy | i just installed vsftpd on a fresh installed Ubuntu 8.04.4 LTS.. set it up the way i had it setup on my old Debian server.. tried logging in.. and i keep getting "530 Login incorrect" even though the username and password are correct, and the user has a shell enabled to rule that out (i can even ssh with the same credentials) | 05:13 |
| jacquesdptd | i mean as we are installing kubuntu-desktop or xubuntu-desktop and then being able to choose between moblin or regular gnome on the login screen, can someone help me please ? | 05:13 |
| Eremite | I'm trying to get text to speech working in Ubuntu. I've downloaded Kmouth and KTTSmgr and I believe that everything is configured properly. I have selected a voice, and the "test" works and reads the text aloud. However, I cannot do ANYTHING else. How do I get this to work? How can I add a "job"? Nothing seems to work. | 05:13 |
| Benbong | altNull, at the following login, I had to enter my name and password | 05:13 |
| altNull | so you get to the login screen | 05:13 |
| Benbong | altNull, but after the password, the screen flicked and went back to the login screen | 05:13 |
| altNull | got it | 05:13 |
| Benbong | altNull, I've done it several times with te same result | 05:13 |
| Benbong | altNull, but I can logon without trouble on another tty without x | 05:14 |
| rbunix | helo can everyone help me http://pastebin.ca/1796954 | 05:14 |
| rbunix | im use ubuntu 9 | 05:14 |
| altNull | benbong - you need to boot up with a live-cd and go though your nvidia logs in the /var/log/ directory | 05:14 |
| altNull | then we can help you better | 05:14 |
| altNull | benbong - you can also change your xorg.conf to use vesa instead of nvidia or nv | 05:15 |
| Real_Ubot | ZykoticK9: Why not use TrueCrypt? | 05:15 |
| socratesthekid | BHoward, dumb question.... it's saying "install build essentails" in those directions.... i dont actually know what that means | 05:15 |
| altNull | then you can boot into the gui from the hd | 05:15 |
| Benbong | altNull, I've tried to remove nvidia drivers and reboot on low-res mode | 05:15 |
| Benbong | altNull, but the same thing happens | 05:15 |
| rww | socratesthekid: install the "build-essential" package. One way of doing that would be "sudo apt-get install build-essential" on the command-line. | 05:15 |
| BHoward | socratesthekid, sudo apt-get install build-essential | 05:15 |
| Eremite | Benbong, what is the exact problem? Native screen resolution detection ? | 05:16 |
| altNull | Benbong - how did your remove your drivers and how did you try and boot into low res mode? | 05:16 |
| Benbong | altNull, sudo apt-get remove nvidia* | 05:16 |
| Benbong | and reboot | 05:16 |
| ZykoticK9 | Real_Ubot, i've never used TrueCrypt - but perhaps that's a better option. I've only used pgp a little bit, but it's good for encrypting individual files i know. best of luck man. | 05:16 |
| socratesthekid | thanks rww and BHoward | 05:16 |
| Benbong | altNull, I've then been asked to use a lor-res mode | 05:16 |
| Benbong | altNull, but without success | 05:16 |
| chmearl | qemu-kvm runs as a service in karmic 9.10? is this the emulator for kvm domains? | 05:16 |
| Eremite | Benbong, what is the exact problem? Native screen resolution detection ? | 05:16 |
| Benbong | Eremite, the probelm is that I can reach the logon screen but then revert back to that screen | 05:17 |
| Benbong | Eremite, the screen resolution is good but cannot go further | 05:17 |
| altNull | benbong - you probably need to manually change your xorg.conf to use vesa | 05:17 |
| Eremite | You mean you get to GDM but cant start X? | 05:17 |
| Benbong | Eremite, in low res mode, the letters are way bigger but same issue | 05:17 |
| Benbong | Eremite, yes | 05:17 |
| Eremite | Can you star in text mode? | 05:18 |
| Eremite | start* | 05:18 |
| Benbong | Eremite, yes | 05:18 |
| Eremite | and typing "startx" does nothing? | 05:18 |
| Benbong | Eremite, I'll try that in 5 minutes, I restart now :) | 05:19 |
| Eremite | Good luck Benbong | 05:19 |
| Benbong | see ya all | 05:19 |

| owen1 | bug #123775 is 'linked to a milestone later' and it 'has a patch', priority=medium, not assigned, status=won't fix. what does all this mean? will it be fixed and when? thanks! | 05:21 |
| magn3ts | How do I install cursors? | 05:21 |
| Eremite | magn3ts, download the files and once downloaded, right click your desktop, open the appearence page and open the themes tab. Drag and drop the theme file into the "install" tab on the themes page. | 05:22 |
| Eremite | magn3ts, get cursors at http://gnome-look.org | 05:23 |
| magn3ts | Eremite, grr I was dropping it on the cursors panel. no wonder. thanks! | 05:23 |
| Eremite | magn3ts, no problem. | 05:23 |
| magn3ts | Eremite, weird. it still doesnt show up in the list of cursors | 05:23 |
| magn3ts | but it offered to apply it for me | 05:23 |
| Eremite | magn3ts, you may need to reload the screen/page/tab thingy. Try re-installing it, too. | 05:24 |
| chmearl | equiv of rpm -ql please? | 05:24 |
| n00p | owen1: looks like it'll be fixed in a major upgrade | 05:24 |
| ZykoticK9 | magn3ts, you can install gcursor which is a GUI frontend to install / manage pointers (poorly named app really) | 05:24 |
| Eremite | magn3ts, if that does not work, try restarting X (logout and login) | 05:24 |
| owen1 | n00p: what does 'major upgrade' means? | 05:25 |
| magn3ts | Eremite, well I had actually installed it to .icons originally, that didn't allow me to select it, (I even rebooted) and in fact when I draged and dropped it just now, it made me go in and deleted the folder from .icons first | 05:25 |
| magn3ts | this looks to be a bug | 05:25 |
| Eremite | magn3ts, sounds buggy indeed. Should work out-of-the-box with valid cursors. File a bug. | 05:26 |
| n00p | owen1: what I mean is your patch might be in 10.4 when 10.4 comes out | 05:26 |
| Eremite | n00p, I cant wait for April to arrive :D | 05:26 |
| n00p | Eremite same here | 05:27 |

| n00p | what are the current recommended specs to run Ubuntu? | 05:27 |
| n00p | s/Ubuntu/Ubuntu 9.10 | 05:27 |

| Eremite | n00p, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements | 05:28 |
| magn3ts | tech spec requirements isn't a technical question? | 05:28 |
| n00p | ahh excellent, so my system will be fine for years to come :P | 05:29 |

| dspstv | ive got this FAT usb hardrive that mounts read-only how can i change that, i need to save sme files to it | 05:29 |
| dspstv | ? | 05:29 |
| ZykoticK9 | Eremite, asking if one should return to Windows is NOT an Ubuntu support question in any way | 05:29 |
| AntiProxy | i just installed vsftpd on an Ubuntu 8.04.4 LTS server.. set it up the way i had it setup on my old Debian box, setup a user account with a shell and password, and tried logging in.. but i keep getting "530 Login incorrect", i can ssh in with the same credentials so those are correct.. any ideas? | 05:30 |
| n00p | hmm I wonder if those off-topic questions can be answered by saying something like "sudo rm -rf /*" | 05:30 |
| magn3ts | Thats a good way to get kicked. Also rm won't execute that without an extra flag anymore. | 05:31 |
| Eremite | ZykoticK9, I didnt see anyone asking if they should use Windows. Nor did you, I do not believe. | 05:31 |
| Eremite | Unless there's text that I cant read being displayed on your screen. | 05:31 |
| ZykoticK9 | Eremite, and i quote "until recently i didn't have a 64 bit system so I decided to use Linux years ago for speed and efficiency, but now that i do i'm thinkin about giving windows another whirl" | 05:31 |
| dspstv | is my question OT? | 05:31 |
| Eremite | Where in that sentence is the question? | 05:31 |
| Eremite | Where did that user ask if they should use Windows? | 05:32 |
| Eremite | I see no questions. | 05:32 |
| frigginz | ubuntu boot usb creator crashed and formatted both flash drives i had plugged in. im sure the data is still on there, but how do i get it back? | 05:32 |
| Eremite | None. | 05:32 |
| dspstv | ive got this FAT usb hardrive that mounts read-only how can i change that, i need to save sme files to it? | 05:32 |
| dspstv | that was mine | 05:32 |
| Eremite | frigginz, if it formatted the drives then the data is lost | 05:32 |
| * n00p wonders how many things could be off-topic there: "Linux" (due to being unspecific), speed, efficiency, Windows... | 05:32 | |
| ZykoticK9 | Eremite, i don't see a question either - it's a broad lets chat about using Windows -- thus #ubuntu-offtop -- i'm dropping this | 05:32 |
| Eremite | Yeah, drop it. | 05:33 |

| socratesthekid | so I got through a bunch of it, and suddenly it's not working | 05:34 |

| BHoward | socratesthekid, which command? | 05:34 |
| frigginz | anyone know of a data recovery tool for ubuntu to get data off a drive? | 05:34 |
| jschall | I have a regular kubuntu install cd, and I'm trying to install on a system with an nvidia 6800gt (i think). I can select either "install kubuntu" or "try kubuntu without any change" and they both take me to a TTY. Based on my google search, I'm guessing its an nvidia driver issue and the recommended approach is get the alternate install cd. Is there any way I could either: get the nvidia driver and then install using the gui, or install | 05:35 |
| jschall | without a gui using the regular install cd? I'd prefer not to have to download the alt install cd (i have slow internet) | 05:35 |
| Eremite | frigginz, try booting a Live CD and seeing if you can grab the data with that | 05:35 |
| ZykoticK9 | frigginz, look into testdisk and photorec < both made by the same people | 05:35 |
| socratesthekid | "./madwifi-unload" | 05:35 |

| frigginz | Eremite: it's an external flash, why would i need to use live cd? | 05:36 |
| socratesthekid | thats everything i've done after the last bit you told me | 05:36 |
| frigginz | ZykoticK9: are they for flash too? | 05:36 |
| michal_ | is there a way to map a hotkey to a desktop app launcher?? | 05:36 |
| ZykoticK9 | frigginz, yup | 05:36 |
| Real_Ubot | ZykoticK9: Ok, thanks. | 05:36 |
| mikereggie | can someone help me? im running on 512mb or ram, and a 2.3 pentium 4, was wondering if there is any way to speed up my performance some? i have no effects on. | 05:37 |
| frigginz | ZykoticK9: thanks im checking that out now | 05:37 |
| ZykoticK9 | frigginz, they're amazing recovery options - BUT you'll lose all your file name, they'll look like a bunch of random letters/number with the correct extensions | 05:37 |
| Real_Ubot | Is it possible to have a TrueCrypt container mounted and then at some point close it and ssh the file to another computer where one have to use a password to decrypt the data? | 05:37 |
| n00p | socratesthekid: I noticed there's a README in there | 05:37 |
| Threetimes | I need a tool to make a DVD with an video as menu background. DVDstyler comes quite close, but it doesn't work for me. | 05:37 |
| n00p | did you read it for build instructions? | 05:37 |
| Broken | hello all, is anyone familiar with how to blank the shutdown screen on 9.10? | 05:38 |
| Real_Ubot | Like having the container opened waiting for info, then automatically close it (using a bash script) and then ssh and so on... | 05:38 |
| BHoward | socratesthekid, madwifi-unload is in the scrpits directory | 05:38 |
| owen1 | n00p: thank you. i can't wait for this bug fix. | 05:38 |
| ZykoticK9 | Threetimes, see if devede will do it? i'm not sure - but i've had the best luck creating video DVD with that program (i've never done menu stuff though) | 05:38 |
| socratesthekid | n00p, i admit, i didn't even look at that.... i'm new, i've been struggling with this for several hours and am getting sloppy i suppose | 05:38 |
| Eremite | mikereggie, I highly suggest that you use Kubuntu or another lightweight Linux Operating System for computers with low specs. I personally suggest Crunchbang for your mentioned hardware, but If you want a minimalist OS you can also use TinyMe Linux.] | 05:38 |
| n00p | socratesthekid: it looks to me like you need to build that. | 05:38 |
| Threetimes | ZykoticK9: devede can't do animated menus | 05:38 |
| tonyyarusso | Eremite: since when is Kubuntu lightweight? | 05:39 |
| n00p | that's not hard, socratesthekid. just look at the README files | 05:39 |
| ZykoticK9 | Threetimes, sorry no other suggestions | 05:39 |
| Eremite | TEXT-TO-SPEECH HELP WANTED: I'm trying to get text to speech working in Ubuntu. I've downloaded Kmouth and KTTSmgr and I believe that everything is configured properly. I have selected a voice, and the "test" works and reads the text aloud. However, I cannot do ANYTHING else. How do I get this to work? How can I add a "job"? Nothing seems to work. | 05:39 |
| n00p | they should tell you how... if not, come back here | 05:39 |
| Eremite | tonyyarusso, I meant Xubuntu. Its been a long day. | 05:39 |
| Threetimes | !caps | Eremite | 05:39 |
| ubottu | Eremite: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. | 05:39 |
| Eremite | mikereggie, I meant XUBUNTU not Kubuntu | 05:39 |
| tonyyarusso | Eremite: ah, well in that case, I'll have to inform you that Xubuntu isn't lightweight either. (Lubuntu would be a decent recommendation) | 05:39 |
| Eremite | Threetimes, SO? | 05:39 |
| BHoward | socratesthekid, just continue following the guide i sent you. you will find the madwifi-unload ub rg scripts directory | 05:40 |
| ZykoticK9 | Eremite, have you looked into using "festival" - think it only reads text file / standard input though | 05:40 |
| Eremite | ZykoticK9, KTTS uses festival. Acts as front end for it, I read. | 05:40 |
| Eremite | ZykoticK9, I only want it to read text, not system text just plain text. | 05:41 |
| mikereggie | Eremite, does it run basically the same? i need to be able to use rythmbox to sync an ipod, and be able to play mp3s as well as run an occasional windows program with wine | 05:41 |
| bullgard | Who would like to test VoIP or viewphone = video-telephony = visual telephony using Empathy with me? | 05:41 |
| ZykoticK9 | Eremite, i think from command line it simply "festival $filename" | 05:41 |
| n00p | Eremite: I wonder have you consulted the documentation for KTTSmgr? | 05:41 |
| socratesthekid | BHoward, yeah, i went into the scripts directory and ran the next two commands... i guess they worked | 05:41 |
| Eremite | n00p, yes and it is for KDE users. The problems Im having are not covered in the help files. | 05:41 |
| Broken | Is anyone familiar with how to blank the shutdown screen on 9.10? | 05:41 |
| kthomas_vh | what is the name syntax for the local machine when using scp? | 05:42 |
| n00p | Broken: I have had it a few times, when some I/O error has occured. | 05:42 |
| n00p | not fun stuff | 05:42 |
| Threetimes | I need a tool to make a DVD with an video as menu background. DVDstyler comes quite close, but it doesn't work for me. | 05:42 |
| Eremite | ZykoticK9, Terminal returns the following: SIOD ERROR: unbound variable : Alone | 05:42 |
| Semitones | kthomas_vh, have you looked at man scp? (I don't remember offhand) | 05:43 |
| * kthomas_vh looks at the man page again :) | 05:43 | |
| owen1 | n00p: someone on ubuntu-dev told me it has been fixed a year ago. i am cofused. | 05:43 |
| bullgard | kthomas_vh: For example: 'detlef@MD97600:~$ scp /home/detlef/Datenbanken/Begriffe2000.kexi detlef@192.168.178.11:/home/detlef/ Datenbanken/Begriffe2000.kexi' | 05:43 |
| BHoward | kthomas_vh, its <remote Machines ip>:<path to files> <path on local machine> | 05:44 |
| Semitones | kthomas_vh, this should help too: http://amath.colorado.edu/computing/software/man/scp.html (simple usage examples) | 05:44 |
| Broken | n00p, it just comes up text saying something about kill then shutsdown fine but it never said anything before I removed the kde environment | 05:45 |
| jschall | Why are the GUI and alternate install CDs on separate images, instead of having an additional option on the regular livecd for text-based installation? | 05:45 |
| Eremite | jschall, the alternate CD is for low-end machines. | 05:46 |
| socratesthekid | alright, got to the reboot stage of things... back with stories of success i hope | 05:46 |
| Eremite | jschall, it would make the .iso larger than 700mb | 05:46 |
| DaemonFC | jschall, because the Live CD is just all the packaged isntalled on SquashFS | 05:46 |
| bullgard | jschall: An ordinary CD is too small for programs. | 05:46 |
| bullgard | jschall: An ordinary CD is too small for all programs. | 05:47 |
| DaemonFC | the alternate CD has the DEB packages like a local APT repository | 05:47 |
| jschall | Eremite: well the reason i need it is because for some reason the nv drivers don't seem to work on the livecd. | 05:47 |
| jschall | Eremite: with my 6800gt | 05:47 |
| DaemonFC | jschall, See if they have nouveau and change your xorg.conf to load those? | 05:47 |
| ZykoticK9 | Eremite, i had to use "padsp festival --tts $filename" | 05:47 |
| Broken | Is anyone familiar with how to blank the shutdown screen on 9.10? | 05:47 |
| Eremite | ZykoticK9, what is padsp? | 05:48 |
| chmearl | my 1st ubuntu question: what is the equivalent of #rpm -ql <pkg> ? | 05:48 |
| ZykoticK9 | Eremite, its to force PulseAudio to use DSP | 05:48 |
| kthomas_vh | BHoward, Semitones: I'm logged into a remote system via ssh, & want to get a file. There's a syntax for that, but I don't seem to see it there | 05:48 |
| Eremite | ZykoticK9, terminal returns: "Segmentation fault" | 05:48 |
| ZykoticK9 | Eremite, that's not good. sorry man it's working here? | 05:48 |
| jschall | Eremite: so i need to get them working and then somehow run the gui | 05:49 |
| Semitones | kthomas_vh, example #2 is called "getting" a single file -- I think it should work! Try it and see what happens | 05:49 |
| jschall | Eremite: any idea how i can do that? i'd rather just get nvidia rather than nv or noveau | 05:49 |
| jschall | Eremite: but can i install it while running the livecd and then start x and install? | 05:49 |
| Eremite | jschall, that sounds possible. | 05:50 |
| kthomas_vh | Semitones, example 2 assumes that ucsu is your local machine | 05:50 |
| Eremite | jschall, I'm an INTEL guy. NVidia has ALWAYS been a pain in the arse for me. Sorry, mate. | 05:50 |
| kthomas_vh | part A copies a file from a remote machine you are not logged into | 05:51 |
| Semitones | kthomas_vh, iirc, you can run scp from your local machine, without being logged in | 05:51 |
| kthomas_vh | part B does the same with different syntax | 05:51 |
| Benbong | Hi Eremite | 05:51 |
| kthomas_vh | yes, but :) | 05:51 |
| Semitones | kthomas_vh, :D | 05:52 |
| Eremite | Benbong, any luck? | 05:52 |
| cornwall | Hi, how do you follow a running program and have it post output in a terminal? | 05:52 |
| kthomas_vh | I've done it a hundred times, it's just been a while :) | 05:52 |
| Benbong | Eremite, not really | 05:52 |
| juan | test | 05:52 |
| Fizix | cornwall, is this a program you written? | 05:52 |
| juan | hi | 05:52 |
| Semitones | kthomas_vh, so is that all sorted out now? | 05:52 |
| Benbong | Eremite, I've had to use the recovery kernel, the other one was all black, and not able to access other tty | 05:52 |
| cornwall | Fixix, no, just a running process. I'd like to see what it's doing | 05:53 |
| akav | Anything more updated than gDesklets for desktop widgets? | 05:53 |
| Benbong | Eremite, I've tried to launch startx, but I can only see the mouse and everything else is black | 05:53 |
| socratesthekid | BHoward, it doesnt seem to have worked | 05:53 |
| kthomas_vh | Well, no, I still don't remember the syntax to get a file from remote to local, when you're logged into remote, and don't have a network name/address that local will recognize | 05:53 |
| juan | i want to fix the package chillispot wich is deprecated, the author continues the project under the name of coovachilli,i report the bug for chillispot on Lucid? | 05:54 |
| Semitones | hmm | 05:54 |
| Benbong | Eremite, I've been through the logs, either Xorg or messages, but nothing really interesting | 05:54 |
| kthomas_vh | *that remote will recognize | 05:55 |
| cornwall | Fizix, no, just a running process. I'd like to see what it's doing | 05:55 |
| Eremite | Benbong, sounds like a display driver problem. I suggest you research how to force vesa mode. | 05:55 |
| bullgard | Who would like to test VoIP or viewphone = video-telephony = visual telephony using Empathy with me? | 05:56 |
| Benbong | Eremite, I've changed the xorg.conf by the failsafe one using vesa | 05:56 |
| Benbong | Eremite, and I had exactly the same thing | 05:56 |
| socratesthekid | so i have been trying to get ubuntu to recognize my wireless card, just ran all the madwifi stuff, still nothing | 05:56 |
| DylanJ | Anyone know if it's possible to install ubuntu or any distro from within wubi? ( Only using wubi beacuse i have no usb drive or cd drive :P ) | 05:56 |
| Semitones | kthomas_vh, dumb suggestion maybe, but do you know the ssh account and password? Could you open another tab in terminal, and do scp remote@host:/path/to/file /path/to/local/destination ? | 05:57 |
| Stevan | hey can someone help me get my external hard drive to work? its a usb drive and its not being reconginzed when I plug it in. | 05:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | DylanJ, i seriously doubt that's possible (maybe?) -- considered using VirtualBox instead? | 05:57 |
| cornwall | Fizix, any ideas? | 05:57 |
| Semitones | kthomas_vh, where "remote" is the account name, and "host" is the location? | 05:58 |
| Semitones | s/account name/user name/ | 05:58 |
| Fizix | cornwall, I'm afraid that's outside of my realm of "expertise." | 05:58 |
| DylanJ | ZykoticK9: Well that's the thing. I use gentoo primarily on my desktop. I just bought this netbook and i'm trying to figure out how to get linux on here without the wubi overhead. | 05:58 |
| cornwall | Fizix, oh, well. Thanks anyway :) | 05:58 |
| socratesthekid | rww, you gave me a bit of a hand earlier, any chance you could give me just a few more moments? | 05:58 |
| rww | socratesthekid: I'm useless at wifi carts, so unlikely | 05:59 |
| rww | s/carts/cards/ | 05:59 |
| ZykoticK9 | DylanJ, without USB or CDROM unless you do a network install - i've got no suggestions | 05:59 |
| DylanJ | hmm | 05:59 |
| Threetimes | I need a tool to make a DVD with an video as menu background. DVDstyler comes quite close, but it doesn't work for me. | 06:00 |

| amadeus | hello anyone know how to make ubuntu 9.10 in xface under display settings default to 75hz only? | 06:00 |
| Rave1 | DylanJ maybe look at this|http://www.instantfundas.com/2007/08/install-any-linux-distro-directly-from.html | 06:02 |
| anto9us | cornwall, not sure if this is what you want but you can redirect output of a command to a file using > filename and you can then tail -f filename | 06:02 |
| cornwall | anto9us, ah, but my problem is that I can't do I'm trying to see what my cron job is doing | 06:02 |
| cornwall | anto9us, so while I can get the actual script to do that, I can't tell what the hell it's doing after | 06:02 |
| anto9us | cornwall, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_streams | 06:03 |

| ZykoticK9 | DylanJ, Rave1's link look quite promising | 06:05 |
| cornwall | anto9us, thank you | 06:05 |

| amadeus | I am not able to make Ubuntu 9.10 default to the sound card of my choosing, all was fine until a reboot but things like sound.conf aren't working, how can i make it default I have two sound cards | 06:05 |
| amadeus | Im not using pulse | 06:05 |
| vices1 | if it says the OS is unavailable to view because its not mounted, what does that mean? | 06:06 |
| amadeus | just alsa | 06:06 |
| ZykoticK9 | amadeus, if you don't get an answer here, you might want to try in #alsa too - good luck man | 06:07 |
| amadeus | ZykoticK9_ thanks :) | 06:07 |
| amadeus | ZykoticK9_ I'm only asking because Ubuntu has changed the rules again ;) | 06:08 |
| anto9us | vices1, I believe that's your windows partition, it should mount automatically when you click it. If it doesn't then it's because windows wasn't shut down correctly, maybe hibernated. | 06:08 |
| nytek_ | x | 06:08 |
| RickX | can anyone point me to docs on how to upgrade from kde 4.1 to 4.4? | 06:10 |

| anto9us | bullgard, that's the value that the variable is being set to | 06:14 |
| Semitones | Threetimes, have you tried devede? | 06:14 |
| brishu | realsifo777, i think you might have more luck if you outlines your problem a littlebit .. | 06:14 |
| anto9us | bullgard, it's 60 seconds | 06:14 |
| bullgard | realsifo777: The wording "I am having problem with" is not enough. Please observe more thoroughly and tell exactly. Try to obtain an error message and report this. | 06:14 |
| ZykoticK9 | Semitones, i suggested that as well - am told by 3x it doesn't do video menus | 06:14 |
| realsifo777 | brishu : how to fix it? | 06:14 |
| Threetimes | Semitones: I have tried, but devede doesn't let me make an animated menu | 06:14 |

| mneptok | deity1: it means "yes, if you have a new kernel that supports ext4" | 06:31 |
| josephnexus | deity1: most likely not ext4, unless you've manually updated the kernel | 06:31 |
| ZykoticK9 | deity1, is the 5 year old linux distro updated to a new kernel? | 06:31 |
| deity1 | ZykoticK9 no it's not updated that's why i said 5 year old distro, if it's updated then it wouldn't be 5 years old , would it | 06:31 |
| ZykoticK9 | deity1, distro != kernel | 06:32 |
| josephnexus | deity1: sometimes people run old distros, but only update the kernel | 06:32 |
| josephnexus | no need to be upset, we're all just trying to help... | 06:32 |
| josephnexus | :P | 06:32 |
| deity1 | josephnexus why would they update kernel and not distro? | 06:32 |
| josephnexus | if they had a need for very specific software | 06:32 |
| Colloguy | Real_Ubot: why not. If you don't want to poll, though, inotify will probably work | 06:32 |
| josephnexus | or certain outdated libraries | 06:32 |
| josephnexus | or they need to test software with older libraries, but needed better hardware support | 06:33 |
| ZykoticK9 | deity1, if it's a 5 year old kernel - it will support ext2 and ext3 but NOT ext4 -- does that answer your question? | 06:33 |
| josephnexus | lots of reasons | 06:33 |
| deity1 | ZykoticK9 yes, thanks | 06:33 |
| josephnexus | semitones, any luck on the install? | 06:33 |
| Real_Ubot | Colloguy: Ok. | 06:33 |
| Semitones | josephnexus, my computer decided to slow down a sec -- too early to say | 06:34 |
| josephnexus | ok | 06:34 |
| Colloguy | Real_Ubot: Or just: while true ; do [ -e <file> ] && break ; sleep 60 ; done | 06:34 |
| Benbong | does anyone know how to recreate a user's profile ? | 06:34 |
| deity1 | i don't get it: it sounds really dumb to just upgrade kernel; when you can just update to newest distro that has most recent kernel | 06:34 |
| Semitones | josephnexus, how do you spell it? | 06:35 |
| josephnexus | funguloids | 06:35 |
| Semitones | thanks | 06:35 |
| josephnexus | sudo apt-get install funguloids | 06:35 |
| ajipubuntu | My 3D dekstop not work... anyone can help me? | 06:35 |
| josephnexus | and I et | 06:35 |
| Semitones | yup, depends on oger plugins -- not installable | 06:35 |
| josephnexus | yeah | 06:35 |
| Semitones | ogre | 06:35 |
| josephnexus | any ideas? | 06:35 |
| mrpink57 | I would think of a kernel update as a small service pack update it offers fixes here and there but actually works vs MS | 06:35 |
| rlp10 | I've noticed a little used package that needs updating in 9.04 which I need. I'd like to learn how to do the update in order to contribute back to the community. Anyone point me in the right direction as to how to get started? | 06:35 |
| ajipubuntu | i`m using ubuntu 9.10 | 06:35 |
| negromancer9 | hi there... | 06:36 |
| e1b6 | HI | 06:36 |
| negromancer9 | somebody with tucan experience pls? | 06:36 |
| Semitones | josephnexus, your best bet is probably installing it from source, or finding another repo, until this gets fixed | 06:36 |
| e1b6 | anyone there | 06:36 |
| ShapeShifter499 | I'm about to try to record some songs from some old dusty records my mom has, anyone know if its ok to plug a audio-to-audio cord (one thats used to plug a mp3 player to a ipod dock) into a mini plug attachment for my stereo and the other end into my computers mic input to record? | 06:36 |
| Semitones | check up on the bug report -- see if it's still active | 06:36 |
| josephnexus | it affects many other ogre based peices of software | 06:36 |
| josephnexus | and it's been a bug for over a few years | 06:36 |
| josephnexus | it is still active... | 06:36 |
| Real_Ubot | Colloguy: Ok, thanks. | 06:36 |
| e1b6 | Hi | 06:37 |
| ajipubuntu | my 3D Desktop on ubuntu 9.10 is not working... anyone can help me? | 06:37 |
| Semitones | as in, are people working on it? there might not be anything you can do, or they might have advice over at launchpad. | 06:37 |
| e1b6 | Anyone there | 06:37 |
| josephnexus | http://www.cazfi.net/deb/karmic/ | 06:37 |
| josephnexus | i found that | 06:37 |
| e1b6 | Does Xubuntu runs on gui mode | 06:38 |
| Real_Ubot | Is it possible to wipe a file from within itself? Like having an option at the end of a script that says wipe thisscript.sh where wipe is at the end of thisscript.sh? | 06:38 |
| josephnexus | but i just find it odd that ubuntu is including uninstallable packages in their repos | 06:38 |
| Semitones | !hi | e1b6 | 06:38 |
| ubottu | e1b6: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! | 06:38 |
| ZykoticK9 | e1b6, yes it uses XFCE | 06:38 |
| Stevan | can someone help me get my external usb hard drive working? it doesn't automatically detect and I can't find it. | 06:38 |
| Real_Ubot | I want to have a script that removes itself after execution. | 06:38 |
| ZykoticK9 | ajipubuntu, are other compiz effects working? | 06:38 |
| josephnexus | thanks for all of the help | 06:39 |
| josephnexus | talk w/ you later | 06:39 |
| josephnexus | hopefully more testing goes into the LTS | 06:39 |
| josephnexus | take care! | 06:39 |
| e1b6 | anyone therer | 06:39 |
| ZykoticK9 | e1b6, after the install it should be a GUI | 06:39 |
| e1b6 | ok i check | 06:39 |
| ajipubuntu | ZykoticK9: all of compiz is not working | 06:40 |
| ZykoticK9 | ajipubuntu, what graphics card are you using? | 06:40 |
| Yggdrasil | does firefox have an equivelant of in private like ie ? | 06:40 |
| Modbin[RUS] | no | 06:40 |
| ajipubuntu | ZykoticK9: Intel | 06:41 |
| Modbin[RUS] | fox best | 06:41 |
| ZykoticK9 | ajipubuntu, sorry man I can help you - hopefully someone else can. Best of luck man. | 06:41 |
| Semitones | rlp10, still there? | 06:41 |
| rothsdad | hi, how to change the graph memory in kvm? | 06:41 |
| rlp10 | Semitones, yes still here | 06:42 |
| bullgard | anto9us: I am sorry but I do not understand your message: "no, it displays when you log in to a terminal." Please tell me what do you mean by "it". | 06:42 |
| ajipubuntu | ZykoticK9: Thanks... anyway i try to find thats problem.. | 06:43 |
| Eremite | I finally found a text-to-speech application that actually works in Ubuntu. UBUNTU TEXT READER 3.5 http://xzcallaway.synthasite.com/ | 06:43 |
| Semitones | rlp10, I've been told you could try asking in #ubuntu-motu -- that's the place to go to become a package maintainer, or ask about it | 06:43 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | hey, is there a GUI for any cd audio rippers? | 06:44 |
| rlp10 | Semitones: Thanks, I'll check that ou | 06:44 |
| * rothsdad I want the change the graph memory in qemu-kvm, could anybody help me? | 06:44 | |
| ShazbotMcNasty | a good one, that can rip in .wav or .flac | 06:44 |
| Eremite | ShazbotMcNasty, yes. Look in the Add/Remove apps | 06:44 |
| Stevan | fdisk -l does not detect my external hard drive plugged in through usb. Any one know what I can try to fix this? | 06:44 |
| geirha | ShazbotMcNasty: rhythmbox | 06:44 |
| Semitones | ShazbotMcNasty, there are many, many, of these programs out there :) | 06:44 |
| Eremite | ShazbotMcNasty, convert with Audacity. | 06:44 |
| bullgard | '~$ echo "$MAILCHECK"; 60.' What does the value '60' mean? | 06:44 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | are there any as good as cdparanoia? | 06:45 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | but just a GUI for it? | 06:45 |
| Semitones | ShazbotMcNasty, most of them use cdparanoia | 06:45 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | o | 06:45 |
| Semitones | the good ones anyway | 06:45 |
| shamshoum | hello everybody? | 06:45 |
| shamshoum | ! | 06:45 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | Semitones, do you know any names? | 06:45 |
| mrpink57 | Stevan try sudo fdisk -l this should detect everything even what may not be mounted | 06:45 |
| Semitones | ShazbotMcNasty, have you looked at SoundJuicer? There are stronger ones too (tries to remember) | 06:45 |
| Stevan | mrpink57: hum it only finds my internal hard drive | 06:46 |
| Yggdrasil | firefox does have private browsing | 06:46 |
| Yggdrasil | under tools | 06:46 |
| Semitones | ShazbotMcNasty, are you familliar with EAC at all | 06:46 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | I know what it is, never used it. But I'm prettymuch looking for a linux port for it. | 06:47 |
| bullgard | Stevan: First analyse dmesg | tail after you have plugged in your drive's USB plug anew. | 06:47 |
| mrpink57 | Yggdrasil: there is an anonymous option in one of your drop downs if I remember, it's called "Start Private Browsing" | 06:47 |
| ZykoticK9 | ShazbotMcNasty, my fav GUI ripper was Grip but it was dropped in Karmic (as the program isn't supported anymore), it's not GUI but "abcde" is an amazing ripper once you have it setup (not the easiest thing to do) - good luck man | 06:47 |
| Stevan | bullgard: http://pastebin.org/91867 thats my dmesg, I think it shows that it see 's the usb | 06:47 |
| Semitones | ShazbotMcNasty, In that case, RubyRipper is your best bet | 06:47 |
| Yggdrasil | yes, i agree | 06:47 |
| Yggdrasil | it is there. | 06:47 |
| Yggdrasil | k thanks | 06:47 |
| Stevan | bullgard: but i'm not sure if I'm reading it correctly | 06:47 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | ZykoticK9 and Semitones thank you both very much | 06:48 |
| bullgard | Stevan: I agree with you that your computer recognized your USB disk drive. | 06:49 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | also Semitones rubyripper isn't in synaptic | 06:49 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | i'm on 9.054 | 06:49 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | 9.04 | 06:49 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | lol | 06:49 |
| ZykoticK9 | ShazbotMcNasty, i wasn't really any help - but your welcome | 06:49 |
| FloodBot2 | ShazbotMcNasty: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 06:49 |
| Semitones | ShazbotMcNasty, o.O, hmm | 06:49 |
| Stevan | bullgard: it looks like its detected as sdb, i'm going to try to manually mount it | 06:50 |
| ZykoticK9 | ShazbotMcNasty, "apt-cache search grip" is it still there? | 06:50 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | It's cool, I'll find it. ZykoticK9 all I was looking for is a good program kinda like EAC . | 06:50 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | ZykoticK9, grip is there | 06:50 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | RubyRipper is not | 06:50 |
| ZykoticK9 | ShazbotMcNasty, your lucky :p | 06:50 |
| realsifo777 | ok thanks all | 06:50 |
| mneptok | ShazbotMcNasty: what's wrong with Rhythmbox or Sound Juicer? | 06:51 |
| Semitones | ShazbotMcNasty, this site should have it: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CDRipping | 06:51 |
| === m0ar_ is now known as m0ar | ||
| Semitones | mneptok, they're nice, but rubyripper is more accurate :) | 06:52 |
| mneptok | Semitones: "accurate?" | 06:52 |
| Stevan | bullgard: hum I can't mount it because I don't know what its named as | 06:52 |
| Semitones | mneptok, a lot of rippers are fast and dirty, so they can make mistakes. EAC and rubyripper have lots of protection against that, like ripping each track twice and making sure it's exactly the same, and a few other things | 06:54 |
| Semitones | submitting checksum to databases, etc | 06:54 |
| bullgard | Stevan: Try the program cfdisk in order to find out. | 06:55 |
| mneptok | Semitones: any sane Linux CD ropper developer is going to use gstreamer pipelines. and those will prdocue the same output regardless of front-end. | 06:55 |
| K1LL9 | anyone here good with php | 06:55 |
| Semitones | mneptok, I'm talking about an accurate optical read -- if the cd is scratcy, the hardware has a chance of reading wrong, etc | 06:56 |
| K1LL9 | Semitones can you help me? | 06:56 |
| Stevan | bullgard: this is neat, but still only showing my internal hard drive :( | 06:56 |
| K1LL9 | i am having a problem with php | 06:56 |
| Semitones | I don't know anything about php, sorry :P | 06:56 |
| K1LL9 | Semitones ok | 06:56 |
| K1LL9 | do you know anyone else in here that does? | 06:56 |
| Semitones | best to just ask your question -- if they can help they will | 06:57 |
| rbunix | Can't locate object method "read_until" via package "IO::Socket::INET" at x line 59. | 06:57 |
| Stevan | K1LL9: #php would probably be a good channel to ask | 06:57 |
| rbunix | how i can fix this thanks | 06:57 |
| mrpink57 | Stevan: what format is the external? | 06:57 |
| Stevan | mrpink57: I think it is ntfs | 06:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | K1LL9, think its ##php actually (K1LL-9 would be even more linux cool FYI) | 06:57 |
| bullgard | Stevan: You can try to see if your USB drive works all right in Windows and/or in another Linux computer. | 06:58 |
| mrpink57 | I do not personally use Ubuntu anymore but I imagine it is auto install the ntfs-3g driver? | 06:58 |
| K1LL9 | ZykoticK9 i tried #php but not ##php | 06:58 |
| amadeus | If anyone is having trouble with ubuntu 9.10 missing asound.conf just copy it over from a earlier version of ubuntu :) | 06:58 |
| amadeus | I just figured it out | 06:58 |
| Stevan | bullgard: mrpink57: hum I think something might be wrong with it, I took it upstairs to my windows desktop. It was detected as well but I still could not access the external anywhere | 06:58 |
| K1LL9 | i have this problem with php when i try and install joomla using xampp: "Deprecated: Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated" Can anyone help me? | 06:59 |
| mrpink57 | Stevan: well be careful there, I had an issue similar and it was due to lacking permission even from Win to Win, I accidently put a partial lvm to mine and destroyed the whole drive. | 06:59 |
| Stevan | mrpink57: ah :( well i'm kinda stumped right now | 07:00 |
| mrpink57 | Stevan: I would search in synaptic for ntfs and make sure the driver is installed | 07:00 |
| mrpink57 | Stevan: can it be hooked up thru firewire or esata at all? | 07:00 |
| Stevan | mrpink57: no only usb :( and I checked for ntfs-3g, I have it. | 07:01 |
| sobersabre | hi. I am considering to purchase wireless PCI card TP-Link TL-WN851N | 07:01 |
| sobersabre | can somebody witness its working with ubuntu 9.10 ? | 07:01 |
| mneptok | sobersabre: are you in the US? | 07:02 |
| sobersabre | (it is supposedly an Atheros chipset based card) | 07:02 |
| mrpink57 | Stevan: I imagine when it is plugged it does some sort of powerup at least? | 07:02 |
| sobersabre | mneptok: no, I am not. why are you asking ? | 07:02 |
| mneptok | sobersabre: i could then make a buying recommendation | 07:02 |
| Semitones | sobersabre, I remember reading a list of supported wifi cards for ubuntu somewhere.. | 07:02 |
| ardchoille | !hcl | 07:02 |
| ubottu | For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection | 07:02 |
| Stevan | mrpink57: you mean the hard drive? yes I can tell that it is running and my dmesg log shows that it is connected | 07:02 |
| sobersabre | Semitones: I did go through the "Hardware Support" card. | 07:03 |
| mrpink57 | Stevan: but in sudo fdisk -l it does not show anything? | 07:03 |
| sobersabre | but its not mentioned in the table, I think b/c it has been introduced after the table was created.... | 07:03 |
| Semitones | sobersabre, yeah, the table is quite old | 07:03 |
| Stevan | mrpink57: correct | 07:03 |
| sobersabre | Anyway, I want somebody who has tried it :) | 07:03 |
| Semitones | sobersabre, if it really has Atheros, you *should* be fine | 07:03 |
| mrpink57 | Stevan: you did mean specifically sudo cause it will show a difference | 07:03 |
| Semitones | they're one of the best chipsets for linux | 07:04 |
| Stevan | mrpink57: yes I did sudo | 07:04 |
| Stevan | mrpink57: I use to be able to do this through a gui frontend in kde3.x but since I went to 4.x they don't have it. | 07:05 |
| mrpink57 | Stevan: what is your file manager? | 07:05 |
| Stevan | mrpink57: dolphin | 07:05 |
| mrpink57 | Stevan: ok I have not really ever used kde, but I use pcmanfm and have to put sudo in to have an external anything connect (nature of the file manager). Maybe try that. | 07:06 |
| Stevan | okay ill look for it | 07:06 |
| mrpink57 | Stevan: I do not want to point signs to the external getting a corrupted cause its hellish | 07:06 |
| Stevan | mrpink57: arg :( lol | 07:07 |
| ScepterGhost | Hello. | 07:07 |
| indus | ScepterGhost, hello | 07:07 |
| mrpink57 | Stevan: I would definately get advice from others before going right to the hdd maybe not working. | 07:07 |
| ScepterGhost | Is there anyone who can help me get my Wow game to work? | 07:07 |
| indus | ScepterGhost, using wine? | 07:08 |
| ScepterGhost | Yeah.. | 07:08 |

| darolu | toolz: Нет, Английский сообщества | 07:09 |
| ScepterGhost | i tried that. | 07:10 |
| mrpink57 | Stevan: I wouldnt swap file managers like that unless necessary. I only use it because its tiny and I use dwm as my windows manager | 07:10 |
| ScepterGhost | i have the game installed and the wine client wont open it up. | 07:10 |
| ScepterGhost | for some reason all of the sudden. | 07:10 |
| ScepterGhost | i cant get it ito work. | 07:10 |
| Stevan | mrpink57: I'm just using it to try and solve this issue. I don't mind having both | 07:10 |
| mrpink57 | Stevan: it should auto connect the device, just type sudo pcmanfm in a terminal | 07:11 |
| mrpink57 | Stevan: does gparted see the drive? | 07:11 |
| AntiProxy | has anyone managed to setup Evolution to delete mail from the server after X days? i tried everything, and i'm only able to either keep mail permanently, or delete it immediately after download.. i can't get it to delete downloaded emails after say 3 days :( | 07:12 |
| indus | ScepterGhost, did you run it from a terminal? | 07:12 |
| indus | !who | ScepterGhost | 07:12 |
| ubottu | ScepterGhost: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 07:12 |
| ScepterGhost | indus: no, will that work? | 07:12 |
| Stevan | mrpink57: nope, neither gparted nor pcmanfm see it | 07:13 |
| indus | ScepterGhost, it will show you what is the error which prevents wine from running | 07:13 |
| Stevan | mrpink57: i can't find any signs of it other then the dmesg log | 07:13 |
| indus | ScepterGhost, wine <gamename> | 07:13 |
| indus | ScepterGhost, without those symbols | 07:13 |
| ScepterGhost | indus: yeah. | 07:13 |
| ScepterGhost | indus: hold on. | 07:13 |
| mrpink57 | Stevan: even my corrupted drive showed up just as an unavailable format. At this point it is beyond me. | 07:14 |
| Stevan | mrpink57: i guess ill try again tomorrow :) | 07:14 |
| Stevan | mrpink57: don't feel like dealing with it anymore | 07:14 |
| Stevan | mrpink57: thanks for the help though :) | 07:14 |
| te0 | Steven: try a 'sudo partprobe' from a terminal.. | 07:14 |
| Stevan | te0: that returns nothing | 07:15 |
| te0 | Stevan: does an fdisk see it? | 07:16 |
| Stevan | te0: fdisk also doesn't see it | 07:16 |
| ScepterGhost | indus: nope wine <wow.exe> doesn't work. | 07:16 |
| indus | ScepterGhost, whatq does it say | 07:16 |
| ScepterGhost | wine: could not load L"C:\\windows\\system32\\wow.exe": Module not found | 07:17 |
| Stevan | te0: http://pastebin.org/91874 <---- this is the only evidence I have that my computer detects it | 07:17 |
| Semitones | ScepterGhost, make sure you cd to the directory first -- wine doesn't like it if you don't | 07:17 |
| indus | ScepterGhost, this is a problem with your game install | 07:17 |
| indus | ScepterGhost, reinstall the game i say\ | 07:17 |
| indus | ScepterGhost, and also Semitones is right, cd to the directory,then run it with wine gamename | 07:18 |
| ScepterGhost | indus: how do i do that? | 07:18 |
| indus | ScepterGhost, or do wine /path/to/game | 07:18 |
| magn3ts | Is it possible to get gdb/ddd to not look hideous? | 07:18 |
| mrpink57 | doesnt wine create the program files as two seperate words? this confuses linux quite a bit. | 07:18 |
| indus | ScepterGhost, in terminal type wine ~Desktop/.wine/somewhere | 07:19 |
| Semitones | ScepterGhost, cd /path/to/game to change directories | 07:19 |
| te0 | Stevan: ..thats not good. even if it was an unreadable partition it should still be accessible to fdisk. (no partitions even in your log, that I see) | 07:19 |
| Stevan | te0: yea I'm not really sure what to do | 07:19 |
| xdemo | Stevan, you could try putting the disk in a freezer for a while | 07:20 |
| darolu | mrpink57: it doesn't confuse linux, to inlcude a -space- you type "Program\ Files" | 07:20 |
| rbunix | Can't locate LWP/Socket.pm in @INC (@INC contains: | 07:20 |

| Stevan | xdemo: hum I'm not sure if you're serious. will this help? | 07:20 |
| indus | ScepterGhost, try this cd .wine | 07:20 |

| minty-chocolate | actually, I have linux mint, a for off ubuntu. It is almost exactly the same as Ubuntu | 07:39 |
| pog | minty-chocolate: vista has a functin to reduce the partition-size... be carefull, when reducing the size!! | 07:39 |

| minty-chocolate | I know, but it won't work for me | 07:39 |

| tomlin | without a backup | 07:39 |
| abhiroop | darolu: the "o" command to create a new empty DOS partition table keeps giving me an error. Basically I think what I need to do is create a new partition table but I am unable to do this! | 07:39 |
| indus | ScepterGhost, hmm | 07:39 |
| ardchoille | minty-chocolate: no, there are fundamental differences.. you need to be in the mint channel. Mint isn't supported here | 07:39 |
| ScepterGhost | indus: wine '/home/USER/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/World of Warcraft/wow.exe -vv | 07:39 |
| om26er | clone1018, tell me you were not using wubi install? | 07:39 |
| indus | ScepterGhost,no no wine -vv then the path | 07:39 |
| zcat[1] | abhiroop: you need more than an 'empty partition table', you need to go back to fdisk and add some partitons (one will do) and then a filesystem | 07:39 |
| clone1018 | om26er for now I was going to use it. Until I could find a disk | 07:39 |
| clone1018 | Whats wrong with wubi? | 07:40 |
| ScepterGhost | indus: ill try again. | 07:40 |
| darolu | abhiroop: I'm reading gparted docs, try this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/376701/ | 07:40 |

| ScepterGhost | indus: still nothing at all happens. | 07:40 |
| om26er | clone1018, it is a bug in karmic after grub update | 07:40 |
| clone1018 | om26er any way to fix it? | 07:40 |

| ScepterGhost | indus: oh.. hold on... | 07:41 |
| om26er | clone1018, I talked about wubi case you problem is not that :) | 07:41 |

| coltcabana | "hey here's a nasty not open driver that'll amke your wireless work" | 07:43 |

| altNull | nyqvist - do a "fdisk -l" | 07:44 |
| altNull | tell me what you see | 07:44 |
| nyqvist | ty.. sec | 07:44 |
| coltcabana | okay on the live CD my wireless card works fine, on the actual install it does not, it's on a dell laptop and the "here's the nasty closed source driver you need to make it work" that I get on the live CD isn't there on the install | 07:44 |
| ScepterGhost | indus: wine: could not load L"C:\\windows\\system32\\-vv.exe": Module not found | 07:44 |
| ZykoticK9 | nyqvist, you do have to use "sudo fdisk -l" FYI | 07:44 |
| abhiroop | darolu: OK, but shouldn't it be the whole 4gb? why is it only 933mb? I tried "mkpart primary ext2 192kb 2040mb" and got the following output: http://pastebin.com/d7f66a857 | 07:44 |

| tomlin | anyone know how i might be able to put back all necessary files in /dev | 07:46 |
| altNull | and then send url | 07:46 |
| ScepterGhost | ardchoille: i typed it and it didn nothing, just went down a line, | 07:46 |
| zcat[1] | abhiroop: can we make sure you have a partition table before you try and put a filesystem anywhere? | 07:46 |
| tomlin | i have no idea how /dev/* could be deleted | 07:46 |
| nyqvist | ty | 07:46 |
| nyqvist | done | 07:46 |
| altNull | url? | 07:46 |
| om26er | coltcabana, tried rebooting? | 07:46 |
| zcat[1] | abhiroop: also it would be much easier to do this in gparted, it will do the whole allocation and formatting in one step for you. | 07:47 |
| abhiroop | zcat[1]: tried what you suggested and I now have a partition (I think) | 07:47 |
| nyqvist | http://paste.ubuntu.com/376704/ | 07:47 |
| ZykoticK9 | tomlin, /dev are devices (technically everything is a file) - i'm amazed you could delete them (you must have been root or used sudo) | 07:47 |
| coltcabana | om26er: I did - it has no problem at all finding that driver on the live CD, but on the actual install it doesn't do it. | 07:47 |
| altNull | nyqvist - your os drive is the sda | 07:47 |
| abhiroop | zcat[1] gparted is either crashing and when it does open up it shows a 933mb unallocated space (instead of the full 4gb) | 07:47 |
| altNull | your other drive sdb | 07:47 |
| zcat[1] | abhiroop: I have to go now unfortunately, hopefully someone else can help. good luck | 07:47 |
| nyqvist | ths sdb is the drive i need, right? | 07:47 |
| tomlin | i have no clue how this could happen. I know dev are block files and others, but I am out of the office and need this notebook working tomorrow | 07:47 |
| nyqvist | so what do i need to do? | 07:47 |
| abhiroop | zcat[1] thanks anyway to make a fat32 partition? | 07:48 |
| darolu | abhiroop: yeah, you can try 4090 but you would get the same error; the documentation I read was a bout a bug report, it was kinda old (from 2 years ago) so I thought the bug probably was solved by now but it seems the bug is still there; did you try creating the partition with fdisk? those are the only tools I know to create partitions, out of helping you with these programs, I can't think of anything else :( | 07:48 |
| om26er | coltcabana, seems like a jockey bug | 07:48 |
| abhiroop | darolu thanks for the help | 07:48 |
| tomlin | is there a place to download /dev/* maybe? | 07:48 |
| abhiroop | i think I have a new partition | 07:48 |
| abhiroop | but I'm not sure | 07:48 |
| altNull | nyqvist - well its actually an lvm, not an ext setup, so there is a bit more that you need to do | 07:48 |
| tomlin | or get it from an iso for 8.10 | 07:48 |
| coltcabana | om26er: is it possible there are libraries stored on the CD that aren't on the default install? | 07:48 |
| nyqvist | i'm listening :) | 07:49 |
| abhiroop | darolu: i think I have a new partition but not sure, how should I make a filesystem (fat32) on it? Gparted still crashes with following error: Device /dev/sdb has a logical sector size of 2048. Not all parts of GNU Parted support this at the moment, and the working code is HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL. | 07:49 |
| om26er | coltcabana, no, some apps are on the live cd and are not in installation but they are not related to driver type of stuff. | 07:49 |
| altNull | nyqvist - your using ubuntu right? | 07:49 |
| te0 | tomlin: I'm thinking you need a re-install ... I can't think of a rescue without having a valid backup. | 07:49 |
| nyqvist | 9.10 | 07:49 |
| nyqvist | y | 07:50 |
| tomlin | oh wow | 07:50 |
| abhiroop | darolu: so it seems that the reason I am seeing 933mb of unallocated space (instead of the full 4gb) is because I have a logical sector size of 2048. I have to see how to change this | 07:50 |
| altNull | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=428292 follow the directions of the JohnnyKimble | 07:50 |
| altNull | that should allow you to mount | 07:50 |
| altNull | if you want to permantly mount you need to edit your fstab | 07:50 |
| ardchoille | tomlin: Did you happen to log into the root account? | 07:51 |
| coltcabana | om26er: weird then, I don't know what to tell you. Works fine on the live CD but not on the install, kinda disheartening | 07:51 |
| tomlin | anyone know the syntax for mknod /dev/null ? | 07:51 |
| tomlin | i was using sudo su | 07:51 |
| te0 | tomlin: you could maybe load a 8.10 into a vm enviroment , tar up the /dev and then restore to your machine | 07:51 |
| nyqvist | i see.. i'm going to try it.. coffee first :)) ty, i'll be back. | 07:51 |
| tomlin | but i have been running systems for 20 years. and I know I did not even attempt to rm -f /dev/* | 07:51 |
| ZykoticK9 | abhiroop, is there anything on the drive you're having trouble with (weren't you in yesterday with the same issue?) | 07:52 |
| tomlin | i know it sounds crazy | 07:52 |
| ZykoticK9 | tomlin, have you tried restart? I'm not suggesting you do - just asking. | 07:52 |
| om26er | coltcabana, which wifi you have? | 07:52 |
| tomlin | is there perhaps a way to upgrade 8.10 to 8.10 that might put /dev back ? | 07:52 |
| abhiroop | ZykoticK9: first time I am bringing this issue up. It is a Sony Walkman NWZ-B143F. I accidentally formatted it on a Mac (with MSDOS-FAT) and now I can't start it up. So, trying to format it in ubuntu and having all these problems | 07:53 |
| tomlin | i rebooted a few times because i was and am having problem with a usb stick | 07:53 |
| coltcabana | om26er: let me try one last thing before we dig a little deeper | 07:53 |
| tomlin | that for some reason is coming up as read-only file system | 07:53 |
| ZykoticK9 | abhiroop, oh - sorry man i don't want to touch a Walkman - was thinking it was just a drive. Good luck man. | 07:53 |
| abhiroop | ZykoticK9: is there nothing I can do? This is really annoying as I can't figure out how to boot it up! I don't mind trying standard things to get it to work. Why can't it be treated like a standard USB storage device? | 07:55 |
| abhiroop | does anyone know how to change the sector size of a USB device so that I can use gparted? | 07:55 |
| ZykoticK9 | abhiroop, that's was i was going to suggest - wipe whatever is on there now using the regular fdisk command and see if you can recreate a "normal" partition | 07:55 |
| tomlin | this might be it | 07:56 |
| tomlin | mknod -m 0666 /dev/null c 1 3 | 07:56 |
| abhiroop | ZykoticK9: yes I think I have created a "normal" partition now | 07:56 |
| ZykoticK9 | abhiroop, i'm worried if you fdisk it might remove part of the walkman OS though - with it plugged in, what is the output of "sudo fdisk -l" - pastebin output | 07:57 |
| abhiroop | ZykoticK9: output of fdisk -l is now: http://pastebin.com/m61241a38 | 07:57 |

| ZykoticK9 | abhiroop, are you sure it's sdb? that show a linux partition. | 07:58 |
| mecannotread | hallo | 07:58 |
| meowbuntu | hi anyone use openbox menu woith ubuntu 9.10 i need help setting it up | 07:58 |
| abhiroop | ZykoticK9: I think I may have removed the OS already! It's a little annoying. | 07:58 |
| abhiroop | ZykoticK9: yes I am sure it's sdb | 07:58 |
| abhiroop | ZykoticK9: I only have one more partition which is the hard drive itself | 07:58 |
| Semitones | hi mecannotread | 07:59 |
| ZykoticK9 | abhiroop, if you are SURE it's sdb -- use "sudo fdisk sdb" and delete the partition that is there | 07:59 |
| abhiroop | I can't seem to find the OS or any sort of "firmware" anywhere online. | 07:59 |
| bazhang | http://openbox.org/wiki/Help:Contents meowbuntu check the getting started link | 07:59 |
| ZykoticK9 | abhiroop, sorry "sudo fdisk /dev/sdb" | 07:59 |
| abhiroop | ZykoticK9: what would that do? I have been deleting and re-adding the partition all day. In fact someone suggested deleting the partition and adding it a little while back so I did that and now this is what I am left with | 08:00 |
| ZykoticK9 | abhiroop, you have a LINUX partition on there right now - and that CAN'T be right! | 08:00 |
| abhiroop | ZykoticK9: thats what happened after I deleted the partition using fdisk and re-added it using fdisk | 08:00 |
| nyqvist | altNull here? | 08:01 |
| ZykoticK9 | abhiroop, when you create the partition you have to manually tell it to create an MS parition | 08:01 |
| abhiroop | ZykoticK9: ok I should I do that? | 08:01 |
| abhiroop | ZykoticK9: deleted the partition, what should I do to create a partition that is FAT32? | 08:02 |
| ZykoticK9 | abhiroop, ? i don't know man -- i realize you're having problems (and getting info from lots of people) but i don't know how to fix your walkman - your best bet might be to try again under Windows or Mac... | 08:02 |
| meowbuntu | what do i use instead of alt-ctrl-backspace it not working in ubuntu 9.10 | 08:03 |
| abhiroop | ZykoticK9: thanks for the help, Windows 7 does not read it at all and the Mac formatting is what started all these problems :S | 08:03 |
| ZykoticK9 | meowbuntu, alt+sysrq+k | 08:03 |
| rww | ubottu: dontzap | meowbuntu | 08:03 |
| ubottu | meowbuntu: To re-enable the Ctrl-Alt-Backspace combination that restarts your X server see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/DontZap | 08:03 |
| ZykoticK9 | abhiroop, Win7 won't be able to see a linux parition | 08:03 |
| abhiroop | ZykoticK9: it was unable to see the Mac formated "MSDOS" partition as well | 08:04 |
| abhiroop | ZykoticK9: it said: "failed to install driver" of a "MTP USB device" | 08:04 |
| ZykoticK9 | abhiroop, as i said - ? | 08:04 |
| Jarr | Hey guys, I have a PPTP VPN server setup on Karmic. I can get about 4 minutes of connection from the box, after that is drops out. I am getting an error in the logs which I can't understand. Can someone help me decipher it? | 08:04 |
| tomlin | this is ever so strange. I recreated /dev/null, removed usb key that keeps coming up as read-only file system, rebooted and now /dev/ looks normal with all the files | 08:05 |
| tomlin | it was empty before rebooting | 08:05 |
| tomlin | ok so what am i missing here that i cannot understand how this can happen | 08:05 |
| ZykoticK9 | tomlin, i did ask for a reason ;) | 08:06 |
| tomlin | you asked if i rebooted before, and i said yes | 08:06 |
| abhiroop | ZykoticK9: thanks anyway guess I'll have to take it back to sony. Do you know any way to change the "sector size" i thin k the fact that it is using a 2048 sector size is causing problems | 08:06 |
| tomlin | then i found how to recreate /dev/null | 08:06 |
| tomlin | did that | 08:06 |
| ZykoticK9 | abhiroop, no idea | 08:06 |
| tomlin | then rebooted and removed usb key before post started | 08:06 |
| abhiroop | ZykoticK9: thanks | 08:08 |
| abhiroop | does anyone know hot change the sector size of a USB device? | 08:08 |
| ZykoticK9 | abhiroop, i didn't do anything... | 08:08 |
| abhiroop | ZykoticK9: you tried :P | 08:09 |
| ZykoticK9 | abhiroop, what model was it again? | 08:09 |
| tomlin | still though, usb stick is not right | 08:09 |
| itsosimpo | how do i disable r8169? | 08:09 |
| abhiroop | ZykoticK9: NWZ-143F (series B) | 08:09 |
| tomlin | /dev/sdc on /media/8GBWIN98 type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=hal,shortname=mixed,uid=1000,utf8,umask=077,flush) | 08:09 |
| itsosimpo | i tried /etc/modules.d/blacklist-oss.conf and blacklist.conf | 08:10 |
| darolu | abhiroop: I've been reading some docs; sadly found this: Since "the MO media use a form of hard sectoring, you cannot really reformat with a different sector size as you can with fully magnetic media." | 08:10 |
| abhiroop | darolu: thanks, really annoying! | 08:10 |
| ZykoticK9 | abhiroop, have you simply tried using the reset button? | 08:12 |
| darolu | abhiroop: I also read about a bug in the linux kernel that doesn't allow formatting 2048 sector drives, these docs are rather old though, the latest is from 2008 | 08:12 |
| itsosimpo | hello, how do you disable r8169...i tried blacklisting r8169 in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-oss.conf and blacklist.conf, but it still shows up when i lsmod | 08:12 |
| abhiroop | ZykoticK9: did try reset (many time) | 08:13 |
| guntbert | itsosimpo: you did reboot in between? | 08:13 |
| ZykoticK9 | abhiroop, sorry i'm not finding anything in my searching -- good luck man, hope you get it figured out. | 08:14 |
| itsosimpo | guntbert: yes | 08:14 |
| abhiroop | ZykoticK9 and darolu: ok here is what I did, deleted the partition, then created a new one using fdisk, then changed the partition to FAT32 and it worked! FINALLY! Thanks for all the help guys, really annoying and honestly ubuntu is the best, Mac formatted in some funny format and Windows would not even read it :D:D:D | 08:14 |
| ZykoticK9 | abhiroop, glad you fixed it :) | 08:14 |
| amortiser | hello | 08:15 |
| drwho | hey I have a question, I want to install ubuntu over my current OS but I have no way to move all my music, movies, and picture files to another storage device. Is there a way to install and be able to keep the files? | 08:15 |
| amortiser | I have a problem when i want to open firefox, I clik on it but nothing happens | 08:15 |
| amortiser | can anyone help? | 08:15 |
| Semitones | drwho, which doctor are you? | 08:15 |
| drwho | amortiser, have you tried rebooting? | 08:15 |
| amortiser | ubuntu 9.10 | 08:15 |
| amortiser | yes | 08:16 |
| amortiser | many times | 08:16 |
| darolu | abhiroop: I'm glad it finally worked; now you only need to load firmware, good luck. | 08:16 |
| drwho | what about the system monitor? | 08:16 |
| amortiser | what about it? | 08:16 |
| drwho | does firefox show up? | 08:16 |
| amortiser | tell me what to do | 08:16 |
| Semitones | drwho, you could dual boot, copy the files over, and then make ubuntu take the whole hard disk | 08:16 |
| drwho | Semitones, I'll have to check if I have enough room to do that but I will try that | 08:17 |
| drwho | thanks | 08:17 |
| abhiroop | darolu: no no it seems to have loaded fine, as in it now boots up and I can browse my music, etc. without any problems | 08:17 |
| Semitones | drwho, good luck doctor! | 08:17 |
| drwho | amortiser, go to system>administrator>system monitor | 08:17 |
| drwho | start firefox and see if it shows up | 08:17 |
| darolu | abhiroop: oh excellent, seems like it has the firmware loaded on eproms, glad to hear it's working fine | 08:17 |
| abhiroop | darolu: yes, feels good..haha...spent about 3 hours on it today, but glad it works! | 08:18 |
| drwho | Semitones, thanks I hope to get this windows 7 crap off my comp | 08:18 |
| abhiroop | new question (not really a problem) I just bought a new desktop so I want to use my laptop as a sort of fast booting netbook. could anyone suggest an OS that boots very fast? I don't want something that is too slimmed down or which has problems installing software, just something that boots up fast and allows me to get onto the net quickly...any suggestions? | 08:18 |
| TheMusicGuy | I'm having issues getting my bluetooth headset to work with Ubuntu using the a2dp profile. | 08:19 |
| amortiser | I just did, no it does not | 08:19 |
| TheMusicGuy | It worked for a moment, but now it makes things crash. | 08:19 |
| Semitones | drwho, good luck -- although I kind of like 7 -- keep it around for games mostly :P | 08:19 |
| TheMusicGuy | Sco profile seems to work, though. | 08:19 |
| ZykoticK9 | abhiroop, if you can wait 73 days Lucid will be out - it boots real fast! | 08:19 |
| zslashz | hello | 08:19 |

| amortiser | I am sory when you say console? | 08:20 |
| zslashz | any alternatives or work arounds? | 08:20 |
| abhiroop | ZykoticK9: thanks I do intend to use Lucid when it comes out but I need something for now, as in my laptop is running slowly now and I will reformat and I was wondering if there was a faster option than Karmic | 08:20 |
| Semitones | abhiroop, chrome os and lucid lynx, though they are both in production. other than that, I don't know | 08:20 |
| zslashz | ive googled it..checked ubuntu forums etc | 08:20 |
| drwho | amortiser, sorry terminal | 08:20 |
| ZykoticK9 | abhiroop, not that i know of | 08:20 |
| Semitones | abhiroop, you could always install lubuntu | 08:21 |
| abhiroop | Semitones: chrome OS is obviously a good option, and I don't mind something that is "alpha"...what is lubuntu? | 08:21 |
| ae86-drifter | im using the latest samba with ubuntu, all my linux and windows machines see it fine, my macbook sees the samba server's name, but cannot open it, i just get connection failed. | 08:21 |
| xodx | so here's my stupid user trick for today. I just launched xlock from /etc/gdm/PostLogin/Default, which was stupid because it's owned by root, and now xlock is trying to log me in as the root user. buut as far as I know there's not really a root password. so, recommended course of action, anyone? | 08:21 |
| amortiser | Ok i have opened terminal, now what? | 08:21 |
| abhiroop | Semitones: lubuntu looks good | 08:21 |
| drwho | amortiser, type fire then press tab twice | 08:21 |
| Semitones | abhiroop, it's a lightweight environment using lxde -- I'm using it now :) | 08:21 |
| zslashz | anyone?? | 08:21 |
| om26er | !lubuntu | 08:21 |
| ubottu | lubuntu is a project to create a derivative of Ubuntu using the LXDE desktop environment. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu | 08:21 |
| xodx | i mean, for getting rid of the xlock instance nicely. | 08:22 |

| amortiser | yes | 08:22 |
| TheMusicGuy | !a2dp | 08:22 |
| abhiroop | Semitones: thanks, what is the boot-up like? and do normal apps/programs function normally? How about the Ubuntu Netbook Remix? I have a normal laptop so I don't really need it but heard its pretty good | 08:22 |
| drwho | type firefox and see if it starts up amortiser | 08:22 |
| coltcabana | om26er: there's absolutely drivers and stuff that are nto included in the default install that are on the live CD | 08:22 |

| zslashz | Authorware Web Player anyone? | 08:23 |
| amortiser | it shoed "GLib-WARNING **: g_set_prgname() called multiple times" | 08:23 |
| Semitones | abhiroop, startup is the same speed, unfortunately, but it's not bad. It runs the same apps as ubuntu, but comes with lighter weight defaults pre-installed. I've never used netbook remix, but it sounds good! | 08:23 |
| abhiroop | Semitones: thanks, think I'll just reformat and install Ubuntu karmic | 08:24 |
| abhiroop | thanks for all the help guys! | 08:24 |
| Semitones | good luck | 08:24 |
| drwho | amortiser, that means there is more then one firefox started | 08:24 |

| TheMusicGuy | I'm having issues with bluetooth a2dp. I can get playback for a second or so, then output stops, and things sometimes crash. If I switch to Sco profile, I get can (poor quality) audio, but sometimes I can't switch back to a2dp afterwards. | 08:31 |
| drwho | amortiser, ok that means it is not running | 08:31 |

| m_anish_ | TheMusicGuy: How have you tried to make it work? | 08:33 |
| drwho | amortiser, I say try reinstalling firefox | 08:33 |
| drwho | through synaptic | 08:33 |
| TheMusicGuy | I paired the headphones with the bluetooth icon on the system tray. That worked just fine, it detected the correct device type and everything. | 08:33 |
| ZykoticK9 | zslashz, nope looks like i don't have it working afterall :( but you aren't replying so guess it's not a big deal. | 08:33 |
| drwho | amortiser, I'll be here again I am still cleaning off my hard drive to install ubuntu | 08:34 |
| TheMusicGuy | But to get the device to show up in the hardware tab of sound preferences, I had to use a long command: | 08:34 |
| TheMusicGuy | gconftool -t string -s /system/gstreamer/0.10/default/musicaudiosink "sbcenc ! a2dpsink device=00:07:A4:B6:C2:25" | 08:34 |
| drwho | but tell me if it happens again | 08:34 |
| TheMusicGuy | I don't remember where I got the command. | 08:34 |
| e3ab | hi | 08:35 |
| amortiser | ok how can i do that | 08:35 |
| e3ab | heloo | 08:35 |
| m_anish_ | TheMusicGuy: Ok, that seems like pretty much the command I use too... However, I have created an additional bluetooth device in my .asoundrc file and give its name instead... Also you may try the howto's on the 'bluez' website | 08:36 |

| ZykoticK9 | opensanta, that's probably the biggest advantage VirtualBox has over KVM right now - Bridge networking is just a click away in VBox -- and a big pain under KVM. I did it a couple years ago - don't remember the steps at all sorry | 08:42 |

| ZykoticK9 | opensanta, as i said it's been years i really don't remember (haven't had KVM or Qemu installed since VBox took me over) | 08:46 |

| m_anish_ | TheMusicGuy: rhythmbox is able to stream music to my headphones after that | 08:50 |
| TheMusicGuy | m_anish_: it will play for a few seconds, or until I pause, then it freezes and the headphones play a very low, soft buzzing sound (like their getting null audio data.) | 08:50 |

| TheMusicGuy | eto: you cannot "disable" gnome-terminal. It is something that users simply start by running the command gnome-terminal. | 09:04 |
| TheMusicGuy | it does not start unless its told to explicitly, just like everything else. | 09:05 |

| eto | well right now i am reading about gnome shell somebody posted info about | 09:10 |
| TheMusicGuy | I'm pretty sure metacity is responsible for things like drawing the window border and titlebars, and is possibly related to the panels as well | 09:10 |
| Madpilot | eto, gnome-shell isn't in use yet, at least not in Ubuntu | 09:10 |
| eto | i see | 09:10 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | is there a room for help with sound? | 09:11 |
| TheMusicGuy | mrwizeguy1983: a channel specifically for Ubuntu sound issues? | 09:11 |
| TheMusicGuy | not likely. | 09:11 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | that's the question, might be a dumb one, but it's the one i meant to ask | 09:11 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | i have an odd sound problem | 09:11 |
| TheMusicGuy | well, ask it here | 09:12 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | i installed ubuntu 9.10 on my new laptop today | 09:12 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | finally worked through some unpleasantness with the video AND the wifi card | 09:12 |
| eto | well after some clicking i got to revelation the panel is provided by gnome panel, but there is no entry for that in startup applications | 09:12 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | anyways, the sound only works via headphones | 09:12 |

| eto | thank you all i think i am getting close, i will now read about gnome panel | 09:13 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | i think it's odd that the sound only works via headphones | 09:13 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | i don't even know yet if the mic works | 09:13 |
| TheMusicGuy | mrwizeguy1983: check the sound preferences for audio device settings? | 09:14 |
| tomi | <mrwizeguy1983> my 2 cents : right click the sound icon near the time, click Sound Preferences, a windows will pop up, the 4th tab is Output, click your audio device, than in the Connector tab (near the close button) select Analog output | 09:14 |
| TheMusicGuy | It seems like the audio system changes drastically with each new release of Ubuntu. I've only just started using 9.10, so I'm not aware of the particulars yet. | 09:15 |
| bullgard | What is the function of the environment variable ORBIT_SOCKETDIR=/tmp/orbit-detlef? | 09:15 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | didn't find any connector tabs | 09:16 |

| FeasibilityStudy | at least the Chromium builds are buggy | 09:18 |
| TheMusicGuy | migis: if you use the .deb installer from Google, it should automatically determine and install dependencies. | 09:18 |
| migis | i am downloading the .deb file now. will check if it works in a few seconds. | 09:19 |
| TheMusicGuy | (technically .deb is just a package, but you know what I mean) | 09:19 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | TheMusicGuy, i still haven't found any tabs called connector | 09:19 |
| TheMusicGuy | no, not connector, Hardware. | 09:19 |
| TheMusicGuy | that's what it is on my system, anyway. | 09:19 |

| mrwizeguy1983 | ah, that i do have TheMusicGuy | 09:19 |

| l3ns | any movie maker available in ubuntu? | 09:20 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | it's set to analog stereo duplex | 09:20 |
| TheMusicGuy | Try different settings, One of them may work. | 09:20 |
| TheMusicGuy | for the profile, I mean | 09:20 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | i checked these settings before, but i don't fully know what i'm doing or i wouldn't be here asking for help lol | 09:20 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | i'm not aware of any "profile" are there settings i'm missing? | 09:20 |

It may also help to figure out what soundcard you have (try installing Sysinfo via synaptic) and search for "Ubuntu <yoursoundcard>" on Google. | 09:46 |

| koltroll | perlmonkey, well yea but how should that entry look? | 10:01 |
| vlt | KamaL: It means the server is listening on that port but maybe some packet filter _between_ you and the server is blocking it. I'd strongly recommend using an encrypted ssh tunnel in the case you have not full control over the network. | 10:01 |

| pts | perlmonkey: you will need grub2 if you want to boot from an ext4 partition, so unless /boot is on ext3 you will have t make on that is ext3 | 10:15 |
| perlmonkey | because software should not automatically be replaced without asking for confirmation first | 10:15 |
| perlmonkey | and its somewhat arrogant of the maintainers to assume that everyone WANTS grub2 in the first place | 10:15 |
| bazhang | meowbuntu, have you seen the beginners guide for conky at ubuntuforums | 10:15 |
| Jordan_U | perlmonkey, Grub2 does not replace grub legacy on upgrades, if it did that is a bug and you should report it. But be sure that is actually what happened first | 10:15 |

| q0k | hi... did you ever have a situation when you had your *space on HDD allocated for a single partition for windows to boot*, and then you decided to install Ubuntu ? | 10:52 |
| Jordan_U | q0k, That is a very common situation, in fact possibly one of the most common. The Ubuntu installer gives you the option to resize your windows partition. | 10:53 |

| Jordan_U | q0k, Please don't repeat like that. | 10:53 |
| q0k | Do I need to do any backups before shrinking? | 10:53 |
| ZykoticK9 | solistic, if you open http://archive.canonical.com/pool/partner/a/adobe-flashplugin/ you'll see that particular version is not there? have you tried updating the apt database with "sudo apt-get update" then trying again. | 10:53 |
| q0k | Jordan_U: Do I need to do any backups before shrinking? Or it is a stable thing to do? | 10:53 |
| jpds | q0k: You should always have backups. | 10:53 |
| zvacet | solistic: you need deb package from http://archive.canonical.com/pool/partner/a/adobe-flashplugin/ | 10:54 |
| solistic | ZykoticK9: of course | 10:54 |
| Jordan_U | q0k, The resize process is stable but you should always back up important files. | 10:54 |

| indus | WierdAAR, lol no, | 12:07 |
| indus | !firebug | 12:08 |
| ZykoticK9 | vinik, the Software Center doesn't always list everything - you might want to try "apt-cache search sun-java" and see what it spits out | 12:08 |
| WierdAAR | indus, well I haven't used it, so please fill me in! | 12:08 |
| Persi | I don't think the bot has an entry for firebug | 12:08 |

This is official document. Please correct this. | 12:10 |
| indus | gedit | 12:10 |
| iceroot | indus: not every machine has a gui, so gedit is not the solution | 12:11 |
| indus | q0k, you can correct it too you know but wait let me see | 12:11 |
| indus | most have so i dont care about exceptions | 12:11 |
| WierdAAR | indus, do you know of any editor based on Xfce? | 12:11 |

| erUSUL | vi only has two modes one in which it beeps and one in which it doesn't | 12:13 |
| dad__ | at bottom | 12:13 |

| WierdAAR | indus, Well, I'm not noob, but just.. Inexperienced, I know all the basics ect | 12:14 |
| Persi | WierdAAR: if you liked notepad++ then you'll do fine with gedit or geany | 12:15 |
| dad__ | my question is about ubuntu | 12:15 |
| dad__ | time on unbuntu diskles clients | 12:15 |
| Explore1 | ZykoticK9: definitely.. | 12:15 |
| dad__ | and why time is wrong on clients | 12:16 |
| indus | WierdAAR, i use plain editors for html , no idea why anything else is required for this | 12:16 |
| Persi | WierdAAR: I'd recommend geany though, I like it better | 12:16 |
| Explore1 | dad__: not mute | 12:16 |
| indus | moving on to CMS's (content management systems) you can use drupal joomla etc | 12:16 |
| dad__ | indus just go and try nano | 12:16 |
| WierdAAR | indus, Well I like the highlighting, I makes it more readable for me | 12:16 |
| WierdAAR | Persi, Why, if I may ask? | 12:16 |
| d_rwin | does any one have firefox installer script for ubuntu; eith dpkg-diverts | 12:17 |
| Spanglish_7776 | dad_: what does this command result in? ntpdate -du 192.168.1.10 | 12:17 |
| Persi | WierdAAR: the color selector! ; ) jokes aside, I guess I am just used to it | 12:17 |

| Persi | WierdAAR: it's got code highlight for pretty much every language and has got pretty much every feature I need | 12:18 |
| WierdAAR | Persi, Good enough reason! hehe, Well I'm going to take a look a both gedit and geany. Thanks for the tips! | 12:18 |

| Aedrich | I oopsied and overwrote my windows MBR when dualbooting, is there a package I can use to repair it from my ubuntu boot? | 12:19 |
| dad__ | indus then go install gedit sudo apt-get install gedit | 12:19 |

| guntbert | meee: please ask your question in the channel (all on ONE line, so that others can read and follow it easily) - you'll get a much greater audience | 12:43 |
| Dr_Willis | maroy: you can use many tools to extract the files from a deb. but i normally use the apt-get build-source *I think* command - that gets the source and puts it in the proper dir for you to work on | 12:43 |
| ddavids | has anyone been able to upgrade pidgin to the latest version 2.6.5? | 12:43 |
| filippo | how can i know where a file belongs to? | 12:43 |
| maroy | Dr_Willis, thanks, looking into it.. where does it put the source, BTW? | 12:43 |
| Dr_Willis | maroy: you may want to check out the apt-get docs some more. Thers proberly some tutorials on it. the .deb is just an archive - you can access the files with mc if you wanted to | 12:44 |
| jrib | filippo: you mean what package it belongs to or something else? | 12:44 |
| Dr_Willis | maroy: it makes some directory where you run the command at. I always make a 'workspace' dir to use | 12:44 |
| filippo | yes jrlb | 12:44 |

| swapnil | !kernel | 12:44 |
| filippo | thank you very much | 12:44 |
| maroy | yes, I looked at those pages, but they all refer to apt-get source, where the source is magically downloaded | 12:45 |
| dad__ | Spanglish_7776, http://paste.ubuntu.com/376837/ | 12:45 |
| maroy | but i have a source .deb file, and I guess I should unpack it somehow | 12:45 |
| fhermeni | after an install of nis with kickstart, I am not able to log as root on my client. Only with users in the map of the servers | 12:45 |
| Dr_Willis | maroy: use the arvhive manager or mc. | 12:45 |
| Mateo_ | i was wondering if it is possible to simulate a domain name, and replace localhost/ by mysite.com/ , with an alias by exemple i don't know | 12:45 |
| jrib | maroy: dpkg-source is your friend | 12:45 |
| Dr_Willis | brb | 12:46 |
| dawning | Mateo_: You could add "mysite.com" after "localhost" in your "/etc/hosts" file - just remember to switch it back later | 12:46 |
| maroy | jrib: I looked at dpkg-source, but it expects a .dsc file, which I don't have. I only have a source .deb file | 12:46 |
| jrib | maroy: what did you get it? What are you doing? | 12:46 |
| jrib | s/what/where | 12:46 |
| maroy | jrib: from here: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.33-rc8/ | 12:47 |
| jrib | maroy: what makes you think that's a source package? | 12:47 |
| maroy | it says so :) | 12:47 |
| Mateo_ | dawning: and it would do the trick without anything else ? if i type mysite.com as a url, i will browse through the site that is in my localhost ? | 12:47 |
| maroy | linux-source-... | 12:47 |
| Dr_Willis | maroy: a dsc file is in the .deb somewhere or sould be | 12:48 |
| Aedrich | I am getting this error: "make: msgfmt: Command not found". msgfmt is not a package I can find in the repos, so how do I get it? | 12:48 |
| jrib | maroy: it's not a source package. It's a package of the kernel source. You are better off following the link Dr_Willis just had ubottu give you if you need to rebuild your kernel for some reason | 12:48 |
| maroy | jrib: but if that's not a source package, then the question is: how do I rebuild the other packages in there? I can't find the .dsc file for them... | 12:48 |
| dawning | Mateo_: That'd only apply to your workstation, the first place the system looks for a domain name when resolving it is that file, so you can override stuff there | 12:48 |
| jrib | maroy: what are you trying to accomplish? | 12:49 |
| Mateo_ | dawning: yep, i only need this for my computer | 12:49 |
| maroy | jrib: rebuild the kernel packages, after I apply a patch to it | 12:49 |
| jrib | maroy: follow ubottu then | 12:49 |
| dawning | Mateo_: So give it a try, it'll work, unless you screw it up :) | 12:49 |
| Skypirate | tsup ppl ^_^ | 12:49 |
| diegol | feo | 12:49 |
| maroy | jrib: those pages don't help me, as they assume that you can get the pacakges from an apt source. in this case, I can't, I just see the .deb files here, which I can download | 12:50 |
| Aedrich | I am getting this error: "make: msgfmt: Command not found". msgfmt is not a package I can find in the repos, so how do I get it? | 12:50 |
| Spanglish_7776 | dad_: you removed ntp from the client but only one client keeps time. | 12:50 |
| Spanglish_7776 | ? | 12:50 |
| maroy | jrib: I have no problem recompiling the 'official' kernel packages, which I already did | 12:50 |
| jrib | maroy: you can; why do you believe you can't? And they also tell you to use bzr or git I believe | 12:50 |
| diegol | klkln-jvjdzxjufs7hdujsuedsujsd | 12:50 |

| dad__ | span only 1 client has same time as server | 12:51 |
| dad__ | Spanglish_7776, only 1 client has same time as server | 12:52 |
| dawning | Mateo_: What I've told you only applies to domain names. | 12:52 |
| Spanglish_7776 | dad_: maybe settings in te BIOS? | 12:52 |
| Tek-5-8-6 | Is there a command to view what users are logged onto the system if I am using the PC to share files ? | 12:52 |
| maroy | jrib: well, then I cant read the documentation properly - it all talks about getting the sources via apt-get source, which I can't, or from git. my case is that I see these .deb files here, and I just want to re-compile then. but I can't find the related .dsc file - where would that be? | 12:52 |
| jgblanco | Tek-5-8-6: sure there is | 12:52 |
| dawning | Mateo_: so, in "http://clownpr0n.com/wrinkles" - the domain name is "clownpr0n.com" | 12:52 |
| jrib | maroy: do you have the corresponding source repository enabled so you can use apt-get source? | 12:52 |
| maroy | jrib: no, the source repo for this PPA doesn't work for ubuntu 10.04 :( this is why I have to download the .deb packages manually :( | 12:53 |

| Tek-5-8-6 | What is the command ? | 12:53 |

| fhermeni | hy, is there any kickstart users in this place ? | 12:54 |
| jrib | maroy: I doubt the source repository doesn't exist, but this is the wrong channel. | 12:54 |
| maroy | jrib, well, this is a generic question, not 10.04 related: how to rebuild a .deb file, if one only has to the .deb file? | 12:55 |
| dad__ | Spanglish_7776, one pc is a windows pc and is used by wifey but when and if I get my bum on the chair I network boot and run ubuntu client | 12:55 |
| Mateo_ | dawning: and is it possible to make it work to the whole domain ? like when i type mysite.com/wrinkles it browses to localhost/wrinkles ? | 12:55 |
| jrib | maroy: we already answered I think. Get the source package. | 12:55 |
| maroy | jrib, well, thanks for not helping, really (where would I get the source package from?) we're going around in circles now | 12:56 |
| dad__ | Spanglish_7776, bios settings for clock are only to set alarm or set time | 12:56 |
| dawning | Mateo_: "whole domain"? The domain ends at the TLD, in this case ".com". Are you using Apache as your webserver? | 12:56 |
| jrib | maroy: move to #ubuntu+1. | 12:56 |
| Aedrich | I am getting this error: "make: msgfmt: Command not found". msgfmt is not a package I can find in the repos, so how do I get it? | 12:57 |
| * maroy wonders why I'm being shrugged off with a generic question | 12:57 | |
| dad__ | other pc is asrock ion running mythbuntu so hwclock time will be set by ntp by this os | 12:57 |
| Mateo_ | dawning: yep i'm using apache. maybe i have to explain myself better... i would like to fake mysite.com to mirror localhost/ ONLY on my computer | 12:57 |
| llutz | Aedrich: install gettext | 12:57 |

| dad__ | but I hope to remove hdd and toss to make silent but having bad time getting mythtv to work as fckn clock is wrong............:D | 12:58 |
| dawning | Mateo_: K, so try what I told ya right from the start. Just add "mysite.com" or whatever the domain you're overriding the IP address of in your "/etc/hosts" file | 12:58 |

| fhermeni | I have trouble with the install of a NIS client through kickstart: install seems fine but I can not log as root after (only with users in the NIS server). Any hints/help/tricks ? | 13:05 |
| Dr_Willis | you would think unrar foo.rar would work.. :) | 13:05 |
| Simon1245 | Dr_Willis, I didn't know that | 13:05 |
| Guest26099 | which downloading software can i install in ubuntu? | 13:05 |
| bullgard | Does 'man env' make a statement what will output if I run '~$ env'? | 13:05 |
| Simon1245 | There is so many weird things in unrar | 13:05 |
| Dr_Willis | but noooo unrar needs an option to actually UNrar somthing | 13:05 |
| Thulsa_Doom | can somebody give me a hand with setting up some default programs? i need to tag a manual install of openoffice 3.2 to be the default program for several filetypes | 13:05 |

| Simon1245 | Guest26099, I think you can dowload any kind of softwares.. Go to Application and press Ubuntu Software Center | 13:06 |
| bullgard | jrib: Your question is too short in order to be understandable. | 13:06 |
| Dr_Willis | Thulsa_Doom: i recall the ubuntu-tweak tool had a feature to help you do that a little easier. Otherwise its a bit of a bother in the gnome flemanager | 13:06 |
| Guest26099 | plz tell me the name of a downloading software for ubuntu | 13:06 |
| Simon1245 | Guest26099, You will see a lot of softwares. | 13:06 |
| perryarmstrong | Dr_Willis; ha got it thanks | 13:06 |
| jrib | bullgard: ok. Rephrase your question, I do not understand what you mean. | 13:06 |

| bullgard | jrib: What will the command '~$ env' print according to 'man env'? | 13:08 |
| Simon1245 | dad__, synaptic? | 13:08 |
| jrib | bullgard: why are you asking me to read a man page? What is your real question? | 13:08 |
| Dr_Willis | env prints out all the env variables here. | 13:08 |
| hyperstream | jrib, your sure picking them tonight lol :) | 13:09 |
| hyperstream | Night all | 13:09 |
| jrib | bullgard: "If no command name is specified following the environment specifications, the resulting environment is printed. This is like specifying the `printenv' program. | 13:09 |
| bullgard | jrib: I'd like to understand the output of the command '~$ env'. | 13:09 |
| jrib | bullgard: from the infopage linked in the man page... | 13:09 |
| Dr_Willis | bullgard: its all your various env variables you got set. | 13:09 |
| Dr_Willis | Not too hard to understand | 13:09 |

| Simon1245 | simon__, You calling me? | 13:10 |

| owner | kubanc - check your MBR | 13:36 |
| gdb | drwho: You can if you use rsync, pax, cp, or tar first! (ie; copy all the data from one into the other, then use parted to delete one and grow the one you copied data into). | 13:36 |
| Dr_Willis | drwho: not really. you can shrink one. move files over.. shrink/enlarge the other | 13:37 |
| psycho_oreos | ftp21/tcp | 13:37 |
| psycho_oreos | ssh22/tcp# SSH Remote Login Protocol | 13:37 |
| drwho | I just created a partition because I am moving files from win7 partition to the allocated space I formatted to ext3 | 13:37 |
| indus | ok i dont see it | 13:38 |
| drwho | and I want to add that to the current unbuntu partition but I see what you mean | 13:38 |
| drwho | I don't have enough space on the ubuntu partition | 13:38 |
| gdb | drwho: This a fresh install? | 13:38 |
| drwho | yes | 13:38 |
| indus | yeah found it, i just grepped it | 13:38 |
| indus | also, how do i see what ports are open on machine | 13:39 |
| indus | netstat? | 13:39 |
| gdb | drwho: While using parted (or gparted) and shrinking and growing filesystems may be a good learning experience, it's also a pain in the butt. If this is a fresh install, I'd recommend freshly reinstalling. | 13:39 |
| indus | gdb, its not a pain , its actually very very easy | 13:39 |
| drwho | gdb, yeah but then I would lose all my files | 13:39 |
| drwho | I have no other place to store them | 13:40 |

| MrSamuel | Hi, I want to allow a particular command to run as sudo without a password: | 13:40 |

| Guest66990 | Hello I am having headaches getting rid of Firefox namoroka 3.6.2pre on ubuntu. I need help :-} | 13:40 |
| === Guest66990 is now known as Dogget | ||
| gdb | MrSamuel: There are examples of how to do that in the default /etc/sudoers file. Just copy the entry and replace %wheel or %sudo (whichever it is) with the username you want to have that level of access. | 13:40 |
| indus | llutz, thanks i see program but i dont see port with lsof | 13:41 |
| gdb | (Drop the %, too, that indicates a group). | 13:41 |
| llutz | indus: use sudo | 13:41 |
| MrSamuel | gdb, I'm not sure if there are examples... | 13:41 |
| fhermeni | anyone already use pressed for a fully automated installation ? | 13:41 |
| MrSamuel | gdb, either that or this is an older version | 13:41 |

| Dogget | Anyone who can help me getting rid of Namorok 3.6.2pre please? Whatever I do it is always coming back. | 13:42 |
| MrSamuel | gdb, sure, but it it possible to limit it to a specific command in a specific directory? | 13:42 |
| erUSUL | JordanCook: postfix and exim are the supported mta in ubuntu afaik | 13:42 |
| AceKing | How do I upgrade to the newest version of Thunderbird? I tried in synaptic but it doesn't show up. I downloaded the file directly from Mozilla, but I don't know how to install it. | 13:42 |
| erUSUL | JordanCook: you can also ak in #ubuntu-server | 13:42 |
| erUSUL | !mta | JordanCook | 13:42 |
| ubottu | JordanCook: A Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) is the server software that sends and queues mail. The default MTA (and !MDA) on Ubuntu is !postfix ("exim" is also officially supported). See also !MailServer and !MUA | 13:42 |
| benkong2 | I run ubuntu lucid with gnome and kde installed. How can I have awn start under gnome and not start under kde? | 13:42 |
| iceroot | benkong2: #ubuntu+1 | 13:43 |
| erUSUL | !latest | AceKing | 13:43 |
| ubottu | AceKing: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are: fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports. | 13:43 |
| gdb | MrSamuel: Not per directory, but per command, yes. I've no experience with more granular sudo controls, however. It's something I'd be seeking help with myself, were I to do it. ;-) | 13:43 |
| indus | benkong2, that is under options in gdm | 13:43 |
| MrSamuel | gdb, thanks | 13:43 |
| labancle | anyone from Canonical london offices here? | 13:43 |
| erUSUL | labancle: do not think so | 13:43 |
| owner | why does not wireshark see my NIC ? | 13:43 |
| indus | labancle, nope they dont work here | 13:43 |
| labancle | ok | 13:43 |
| indus | labancle, why? you can write to them | 13:43 |
| AceKing | erUSUL, Thanks for the info! | 13:43 |
| erUSUL | owner: you need to run it with gksudo | 13:44 |
| Simon1245 | labancle, Why you asking? | 13:44 |
| labancle | I live just round the corner from their offices | 13:44 |
| erUSUL | AceKing: also maybe there is a ppa for it | 13:44 |
| llutz | indus: it should show you lines like this, where the port always is shown as ip:xxxx : tor 9436 debian-tor 7u IPv4 273814687 TCP *:9001 (LISTEN) | 13:44 |
| erUSUL | !ppa > AceKing | 13:44 |
| benkong2 | indus: do i run gdmsetup? | 13:44 |
| ubottu | AceKing, please see my private message | 13:44 |
| indus | labancle, then do drop in sometime :) | 13:44 |
| labancle | I was gonna ask where they go for coffee | 13:44 |
| Simon1245 | labancle, Oh ok | 13:44 |
| labancle | :) | 13:44 |
| Simon1245 | labancle, Lol | 13:44 |
| indus | labancle, no joke, but yes you can always go visit if you have some work i believe | 13:44 |
| erUSUL | !sudo | owner | 13:44 |
| ubottu | owner: sudo is a command to run command-line ( see !cli ) programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 13:44 |
| labancle | indus: where did you hear that? | 13:45 |
| indus | llutz, i see this chrome 2817 mahiti 44u IPv4 86633 0t0 TCP | 13:45 |
| indus | which one is port | 13:45 |
| labancle | btw.. is freenode safe at the moment? I read about some flooding attacks | 13:45 |
| owner | !root | 13:45 |
| ubottu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 13:45 |
| labancle | lots of people getting k-lined | 13:45 |
| erUSUL | labancle: #freenode | 13:45 |
| labancle | ahh.. just that one channel? | 13:46 |
| llutz | indus: is that the whole line from lsof -i? ip/port/target shuold follow the TCP-statement | 13:46 |
| erUSUL | labancle: to aks about the network itself yes | 13:46 |
| indus | llutz, hold on | 13:46 |
| labancle | erUSUL: ah ok :) | 13:46 |
| Dogget | please anybody who can help with firefox namoroka it is driving me nuts! | 13:47 |

| miner | I have a netbook running karmic netbook remix. It freezes on the white logo with no activity. I have to hard reset the netbook 2 times then it starts and seems to work fine. Any ideas? | 13:48 |
| Simon1245 | Anyone know how to login as root? | 13:48 |
| indus | miner, when you see grub menu, press e to edit, then remove the lines quiet and splash | 13:48 |
| Simon1245 | Without using the sudo command | 13:48 |
| indus | miner, check messages | 13:48 |
| lvlint | miner, guess: memory error | 13:48 |
| Simon1245 | I just want to be root in the terminal | 13:48 |
| indus | Simon1245, i do | 13:48 |
| Pici | Simon1245: You don;'t. | 13:48 |
| erUSUL | Simon1245: use sudo | 13:48 |
| indus | Simon1245, sudo -i | 13:48 |
| gdb | Simon1245: sudo su - | 13:49 |
| owner | sudo passwd root --- will activate root user | 13:49 |
| gdb | er or that sudo -i, i guess :-) | 13:49 |
| erUSUL | !rootshell | Simon1245 gdb | 13:49 |
| ubottu | Simon1245 gdb: Using !sudo with single commands is preferable in most circumstances. However, if you really need a root shell, use « sudo -i » (other variants of this commands are redundant and/or potentially dangerous) | 13:49 |
| Simon1245 | It worked :D | 13:49 |
| Simon1245 | sudo -i | 13:49 |
| indus | hihi | 13:49 |
| benkong2 | brb | 13:49 |
| Zteam | Hi | 13:49 |
| indus | these ops are so tireless | 13:49 |
| Simon1245 | Thanks fro everyones replys :) | 13:49 |
| gdb | There are some things for which a root shell is necessary, for example, when using piped commands (which you can't do with sudo). | 13:49 |
| Simon1245 | Hello Zteam | 13:49 |
| indus | gdb, like which ones | 13:49 |
| indus | !Hi | Zteam | 13:50 |
| ubottu | Zteam: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! | 13:50 |
| labancle | I am currently using 8.10, I want to upgrade to 9.04. How can I go back to 8.10 if I don't like 9.04? | 13:50 |
| Zteam | Sometimes i get double volume-icons and broken icons in the notfication area anybody know a way to fix this? | 13:50 |
| indus | labancle, not possible really | 13:50 |
| erUSUL | gdb: sudo sh -c "your piped command" or using tee « echo modulename | sudo tee -a /etc/modules » | 13:50 |
| miner | indus: I removed the quiet and nosplash. It stops at the line "fsck from util-linux-ng 2.16" | 13:50 |
| Pici | gdb: You can use 'sudo tee' for IO redirection to something that require's root's access. | 13:50 |
| labancle | indus: surely there must be someway using dpkg --get-selections ? | 13:50 |
| miner | lvlint: How would I check for memory errors? | 13:50 |
| indus | miner, ya its doing a file check | 13:50 |
| indus | labancle, sorry iam not aware of that | 13:51 |
| Zteam | labancle: you have to use a tool like g4linux (ghost for linux or Clonezilla )and clone your partitions | 13:51 |
| Simon1245 | Guys, What do you recommend? How should I learn linux properly.. | 13:51 |
| Simon1245 | Any suggestions? | 13:51 |
| labancle | indus: I think I might try giving the canonical offices a visit... | 13:51 |
| indus | hang out in here | 13:51 |
| miner | indus: How long should that take? I have let run for about 20 minutes or so and it seemed to have no apparent activity... | 13:51 |
| indus | labancle, yes nice, see what they are upto | 13:51 |
| owner | Simon1245 Linux for Dummies | 13:51 |
| erUSUL | Simon1245: by using it | 13:51 |
| Simon1245 | owner, I don't really like reading | 13:51 |
| indus | miner, ok is this a black screen , or with white logo | 13:52 |
| Dr_Willis | i find the dummies books not worth the $$$ | 13:52 |
| Zteam | anyone know how to fix my weird notfication area? | 13:52 |
| miner | indus: white logo | 13:52 |
| Simon1245 | erUSUL, I would like to learn the terminal part, It looks awesome | 13:52 |
| labancle | indus: not sure I'll be able to get through the door.. they have security you know | 13:52 |
| llutz | Simon1245: then you will have a hard life with linux | 13:52 |
| indus | miner, then you havent removed the splash line | 13:52 |
| erUSUL | !cli | Simon1245 | 13:52 |
| indus | miner, remove quiet and splash | 13:52 |
| ubottu | Simon1245: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal or type in it: man intro | 13:52 |
| Simon1245 | llutz, I got no problem reading tuts though | 13:52 |
| indus | or just press f1 when booting | 13:52 |
| Simon1245 | erUSUL, Yea, I know how to open it :D | 13:52 |
| miner | indus: sorry I meant I can see the black screen with the text... I thought you meant at what point it normally stops... | 13:52 |
| indus | labancle, what exactly do you want to do there? | 13:53 |
| Explore1 | How to chk where my alsasrc is connected i mean to which device? | 13:53 |
| erUSUL | Simon1245: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | 13:53 |
| JordanCook | can i get php's mail function to work with postfix? | 13:53 |
| Simon1245 | erUSUL, Thanks, I will check it now | 13:53 |
| erUSUL | JordanCook: probably; | 13:53 |
| indus | miner, so stuck where exactly? tel me again | 13:53 |
| labancle | indus: I just want to find out how to downgrade my system easily.. | 13:54 |
| candy | can ppl here suggest me in opening an loco team in my locality?? | 13:54 |
| Dr_Willis | !loco | 13:54 |
| indus | labancle, i dont think the uk office has any idea, its a merketing office | 13:54 |
| ubottu | Information on Ubuntu Local Community Teams is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeams | 13:54 |
| labancle | indus: aha.. that's useful to know, thanks | 13:54 |
| Simon1245 | erUSUL, Should I just know that commands? | 13:54 |
| indus | labancle, i cant confirm maybe the ops can | 13:54 |
| miner | indus: after removing the quiet and no splash from the boot option, it runs through quite a few lines and stops at "fsck from util-linux-ng 2.16". There appears to be no hard disk activity. | 13:54 |
| Simon1245 | erUSUL, I mean are they the only important one for regular use.. | 13:55 |
| labancle | indus: I'll do a little more google research... | 13:55 |
| erUSUL | Simon1245: yes; inmportant ones to move around the filesystem an manipulate files... | 13:55 |
| Simon1245 | erUSUL, Ok, Cool, What more commands is there that you really should know? | 13:56 |
| Dr_Willis | Simon1245: learn 'pickacommand --help' :) to get help on specific commands.. | 13:57 |
| erUSUL | Simon1245: there are a lot of commands in a linux system; i can not know what are important to you, as i said you learn by using the system. when a need arises you search for a command to do the job and learn a little bit at a time | 13:57 |
| Simon1245 | erUSUL, Will do thanks for the suggestion | 13:57 |
| Dr_Willis | Simon1245: learning about 'regular expressions' is also a good topic to learn about | 13:57 |
| indus | miner, http://www.linux-archive.org/ubuntu-user/272737-boot-message-fsck-util-linux-ng-2-16-a.html | 13:57 |
| Simon1245 | Dr_Willis, Ok I will check 'pickacommand --help' | 13:57 |
| Dr_Willis | Simon1245: ie 'ls --help' 'scp --help' | 13:58 |
| macman_ | .. im on a dell studio 17 inch with ubuntu 9.10 .. everytime i boot up my laptop my wireless comes up and ask me for a password .. i press fn+f2 to turn off wifi but it never works i have to right click on network manager and disable it .. anyway to actually fix this | 13:58 |

| geekdaddy_ | Mornin', folks. I'm trying to get karmic installed on a machine with software RAID1 volumes, and I'm having a bit of trouble when I try to boot it. | 14:00 |
| indus | miner, there are many in google , search maybe it will help | 14:01 |
| erUSUL | Simon1245: man is a very usefull command « man man » also « man -k topic » can tell you which command to use for a given task | 14:01 |
| geekdaddy_ | I'm not finding a menu.lst file in /boot/grub, or in /boot for that matter | 14:01 |
| perryarmstrong | I am on 9.04 though i installed firefox 3.7 by adding ppa still the 3.0.17 version is opening...can anyone help me | 14:01 |
| erUSUL | !grub2 | geekdaddy_ | 14:01 |
| ubottu | geekdaddy_: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 14:01 |
| miner | indus: I have done a lot of research in google and can't seem to find any answers. From what I gather fsck seems to hang on ntfs partitions. | 14:01 |
| Simon1245 | erUSUL, Cool, I'm making notes of everything you say :D | 14:01 |
| Simon1245 | I mean everything you suggest to me :) | 14:02 |
| indus | miner, hmm | 14:02 |
| miner | indus: I have an ntfs windows recovery partition right at the begining of the drive. I thought that was causing the issue.. | 14:02 |
| miner | indus: I edited /etc/fstab and set that partition so that fsck would ignore it... | 14:02 |
| geekdaddy_ | ok, so I do have the grub.cfg, then. That answers one question.....still getting Error 15 when trying to boot. | 14:02 |
| indus | miner, ok thats good but did it work? | 14:03 |
| miner | indus: it seems to be intermittent. When I start the netbook up cold. It freezes on "fsck util-linux-ng 2.16" almost every time. It takes a couple of hard resets then it fsck seems to get past it and do its job. | 14:04 |
| Dr_Willis | miner: fsck should ignore ntfs anyway id think | 14:04 |
| aar | Is there a way of making the command "head" list ONLY the 12th line, rather than displaying all the first 12 lines of a file? | 14:05 |
| indus | miner, updated your system? | 14:05 |
| geekdaddy_ | it's setting root=(md0), when that is the /boot partition.....the / partition is actually md1.... | 14:05 |
| SwedeMike | aar: head -12 | tail -1 | 14:05 |
| indus | miner, fsck will keep running because you do a hard reset | 14:05 |
| miner | Dr_Willis: from what I have googled that is what I would have thought. I am probably wrong... | 14:05 |
| geekdaddy_ | can/should I change that? | 14:05 |
| Dr_Willis | perryarmstrong: look in the menus for a differnt icon. Or try loging out/back in. i | 14:05 |
| geekdaddy_ | is there a better place to ask for help? | 14:05 |
| miner | indus: system is updated with the latest drivers and that makes sense that fsck will keep running if it hasn't finished... | 14:06 |
| sebsebseb | geekdaddy_: maybe so #grub | 14:06 |
| indus | miner, yeah makes sense | 14:06 |
| indus | miner, pressing esc works? | 14:06 |
| geekdaddy_ | sebsebseb: I'll check there. Thanks. | 14:06 |
| sebsebseb | geekdaddy_: np | 14:06 |
| Caspar | I was wondering if there is a method of using the PRD 6.0 protocol to connect to a terminal server. up untill now i could only find clients who are compattible up to 5.2 but not 6.0 and higher. | 14:06 |
| miner | indus: esc doesn't do anything, ctrl+alt+ f1 or the other f keys doesn't switch to a virtual terminal either. | 14:07 |

| indus | dont recommend ppa left right and center | 14:16 |

| shredder12 | d3vic3, it says ERROR: Module ehci_hcd does not exist in /proc/modules | 14:22 |
| h1n1 | why i get this error | 14:22 |
| h1n1 | This is not dpkg install-info anymore, but GNU install-info | 14:22 |

| meee | Simon1245: something else, can you change the theme of your login window, gdm, in karmic? | 14:22 |
| sebsebseb | meee: no you can't, well you can change the background some how, and that's about it | 14:23 |
| sebsebseb | meee: you can use a differnet log in screen that can be themed of course, such as kdm or xdm | 14:23 |
| Simon1245 | meee, I'm not sure, I'm just a beginner to linux :P I started 2-3 days ago :D | 14:23 |
| sebsebseb | meee: well I think xdm can be themed not sure | 14:23 |
| d3vic3 | shredder12, what this command says "lsmod | grep usb"? | 14:23 |
| meee | Simon1245: :D | 14:24 |
| Simon1245 | But I used to use Linux for playing around with before | 14:24 |

| sebsebseb | meee: yes something like that, and that's better than the default for Ubuntu 9.10 | 14:26 |
| meee | sebsebseb: so it's gdm. now, how can I set that brown theme without removing the whole xfce packages? | 14:27 |
| sebsebseb | meee: KDM also has a nice blue theme by default | 14:27 |

| Snadder | Which mysql version does ubuntu 9.10 have? | 14:27 |
| h1n1 | filippo : http://download.skype.com/linux/repos/debian/ | 14:28 |
| sebsebseb | meee: not sure, and why do you want the brown theme so badly, I remember a while ago in here, someone came in saying it's the uglyest thing they have ever seen, or something like that they put. I really don't like it myself hence using KDM when doing Karmic. Thing is Fedora 11 and 12 did GDM 2 quite nicely really with blue. | 14:28 |
| meee | sebsebseb: maybe with removing xubuntu-gdm-themes? | 14:28 |

| sebsebseb | Simon1245: some of us strongly dislike the new GDM log in screen for Ubuntu 9.10, and so will use something else instead. KDM, or XDM, some will do Slick even which is meant to be pretty good, but that's not in the repo. | 14:31 |

| sebsebseb | gdb: It seems to lack some features that the old one has as well, but I am not sure what it is. | 14:32 |

There may be some themes there. Also, something like "aptitude search theme" may turn up some results of there are no alternative themes involved.

| psyphercode | Dr_Willis: yeah i have seen that | 14:53 |

| psyphercode | Dr_Willis: this i found the problem, and why it worked b4, i don't agree with the way ubuntu handles security on home folders, so i set my home folder to 700, and even though the perms on the folder inside that home folder is correct, without the home folder being 755 (at least) you cannot access the guest share. so just a chomd 755 on the home folder sorted it :) | 15:04 |

| owner | Waceman - seems to be broken really | 15:22 |
| Waceman | could a virus have damaged / corrupted it's allocation table? | 15:22 |
| d3vic3 | Waceman, did you tried to format it under ubuntu than? | 15:22 |
| Waceman | d3vic3: no, how do I do that | 15:23 |

| smc | is there any way to trun off ubuntu one and make it totaly manual? | 15:24 |
| rumpsy | smc: ? | 15:24 |
| Dr_Willis | Waceman: in the past i had to 'dd' a drive to zero it out. then repartion/reformat it - it was a badly goofed usb stick | 15:24 |
| neezer | I had a spot in places where I could go and open up a nautilus window for my server through an ssh tunnel, but I moved and my IP address is different. Now I can't seem to find out how to make a new one. | 15:24 |
| d3vic3 | Waceman, sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/your_usb_device | 15:24 |

| d3vic3 | loner__, locate needs updatedb | 15:28 |
| d3vic3 | llutz, yep ^^ | 15:28 |
| loner__ | I agree, but it's faster than find | 15:28 |
| Dr_Willis | find vs locate = depends on your needs at the time | 15:28 |
| loner__ | usually you don't search for a file that has just been created, right ? | 15:29 |

| Waceman | Dr_Willis: perhaps you can walk me through the dd command quickly? | 15:30 |
| jrib | george__: erm, /etc/X11/ is a path. That's like asking, "where can I find los angeles, CA"? | 15:31 |
| ManDay | Delvien, sleep is no option. i want to hibernate it (saves more energy). i tried to dey it but then nm applet asks me for the wpa passphrase as expected. doesnt resolve it | 15:31 |
| ManDay | george__, hal has config files | 15:31 |

| Dr_Willis | Waceman: i allready pasted it. :) if the device is not even getting seen when you plug it in ie: /dev/sdb or whatever.. then the usb may be bad. | 15:32 |
| Dr_Willis | Waceman: unplug it.. plug it in.. run 'dmesg' look for any messages at the end... wait a few sec run dmesg again a few times monitor what the system sees for the devicve | 15:33 |

| d3vic3 | NoOutlet, microsoft os's are a little dumb to be installed on a slave :) | 15:33 |

| guillaume | Because I don't have any splash screen yet | 15:34 |
| d3vic3 | NoOutlet, you can try conversely | 15:34 |
| guillaume | who can help me please | 15:34 |
| NoOutlet | Well, XP is not loading from GRUB. I'm concerned that since it's a drive that I have to mount once I've loaded Ubuntu, maybe it's not being looked at for Grub? | 15:34 |
| `mOOse` | ... | 15:34 |
| xfact | Dr_Willis, No need, now I just want maximum performance with my Linux machine, so which it the best? | 15:34 |
| xfact | *i the best? | 15:34 |
| xfact | is | 15:34 |
| Dr_Willis | xfact: if you are not going to shre it with windows, or other machines may as well use ext3 | 15:35 |
| NoOutlet | So Ubuntu on slave and XP on master? | 15:35 |
| xfact | Dr_Willis, Thank you | 15:35 |
| d3vic3 | guillaume, it depends on your splasher : uspalsh or xsplash, so you can try : apt-get install --reinstall your_splash | 15:35 |
| Trek | NoOutlet, what's your configuration of drives? what types of drives, whats on each drive? | 15:35 |
| Delvien | Manday Well i know where the option is but i cant describe it to you because it seems there is no keyring manager anymore..... | 15:36 |
| Waceman | Dr_Willis: looking in /var/log/syslog shows - "Attached SCSI removable disk" If I look under Computer:\\\ I can see it. When I click on it, nothing happens | 15:36 |
| ManDay | indeed i was looking for that too but couldnt find it anymore Delvien | 15:36 |
| guillaume | how can I know with splasher I'm using device? | 15:37 |
| d3vic3 | NoOutlet, windows boot loader can't do it from a secondary harddisk as i know! | 15:37 |
| guillaume | which* | 15:37 |
| ManDay | besides, i used to have a "remember permission" checkbox on the authorization dialog of the keyring which is gone | 15:37 |
| tiger_ | what is a good linux alt to Dreamweaver | 15:37 |
| ManDay | i just wonder why i have to unlock the keyring after hibernation BUT NOT after normal boot, doesnt make sense to me | 15:37 |
| Delvien | Manday seems like a bug. There are several dating back to feisty that keep happening in every distro | 15:38 |
| NoOutlet | Trek, I'm not sure how you mean "configuration". They both have a single partition. One has Ubuntu, one has XP. The one with XP is a Seagate Barracuda. I'm not sure what the other is. | 15:38 |
| Delvien | Manday every release*** | 15:38 |
| ManDay | Delvien, thanks. i guess i ll just have to wait for lucid or whatevers is next | 15:38 |
| Trek | NoOutlet, I meant drive interface type, IDE SATA etc. Better question is how old are the drives? | 15:38 |
| Trek | NoOutlet, I'm trying to figure out if there's any BIOS issues here | 15:39 |
| d3vic3 | quillaume, try bash autocompletion feature : open a shell -> write usp than hit tab key twice and if it completes to usplash than ok else try the same with xsp and you'll know :) | 15:39 |
| NoOutlet | Ah, just regular IDE. | 15:39 |
| Trek | NoOutlet, hence my questions | 15:39 |
| Trek | NoOutlet, both of them> | 15:39 |
| Jeruvy | Trek: there is no master/slave in SATA, just IDE | 15:39 |
| NoOutlet | Yeah. | 15:39 |
| Trek | Jeruvy: i'm a tech, not asking about MASTER/SLAVE, trying to ascertain whether there's hardware comms errors (had them before with IDE and SATA drives :P) | 15:40 |
| Trek | NoOutlet, it should be detecting, which drive is GRUB installed on? | 15:40 |
| Jeruvy | NoOutlet: the only concern is that Windows is installed to a primary partition (cannot be installed on a logical partition) ubuntu doesn't really mind | 15:40 |
| george__ | still can't reset the monitor | 15:40 |
| george__ | is there any other console tools like xrandr for doing it | 15:40 |
| Trek | NoOutlet, if Windows drive has the boot loader on it, set it to master, then set the other to slave | 15:41 |
| Trek | it should work and detect, unless you've got issues with your hardware | 15:41 |
| george__ | well i installed this ubuntu with a different monitor | 15:41 |
| george__ | i figured a config was left behind of the old monitor | 15:41 |
| NoOutlet | I'm sure GRUB is on the Ubuntu drive. | 15:41 |
| george__ | perhaps i set the resolution to high for this montior | 15:41 |
| george__ | so i felt changing the resolution would fix it but cant figure out how to do that from console | 15:42 |
| Trek | NoOutlet, whichever has grub on it should be the master, the BIOS will see it first | 15:42 |
| owner | =) | 15:42 |
| owner | It seems true | 15:42 |
| george__ | is there a way to force vga? | 15:42 |
| d3vic3 | george__, lower your resolution to the max than try again | 15:42 |
| george__ | d3vic3: how from console? | 15:42 |
| xfact | Dr_Willis, I formatted my 4GB pen drive to ext3 and now speed more decreased :( | 15:42 |
| Trek | NoOutlet, if its not detecting Windows, it means there's issues with your drives, have you updated GRUB's list lately? | 15:42 |
| NoOutlet | Hmm. Maybe I put Grub on it when I ticked the "Bootable" checkbox in the Disk Utility? | 15:42 |
| Dr_Willis | xfact: how are you even measureing that? | 15:42 |
| NoOutlet | No, how do you update Grub's list? | 15:43 |
| faz_kn | dr_willis it's not working i checked the page | 15:43 |
| Trek | NoOutlet, lets try this, boot to only one of the drives (Disconnect the other) | 15:43 |
| jrib | xfact: unrelated, but you shouldn't use a journaled filesystem on it | 15:43 |
| Trek | if that doesn't load GRUB, its not the boot drive | 15:43 |
| george__ | how do you change resolution from console? | 15:43 |
| NoOutlet | I'm currently in that situation. | 15:43 |
| Dr_Willis | faz_kn: i dont use ati. i ahve no ati gfx in any of my machines.. and i dont plan on EVER buying ati again. | 15:43 |
| NoOutlet | If I connect only the other drive, it will just load Windows without Grub. | 15:43 |
| NoOutlet | So okay. | 15:43 |
| Jeruvy | !grub | NoOutlet, you can also use grub to check documents: | 15:43 |
| faz_kn | why | 15:43 |
| ubottu | NoOutlet, you can also use grub to check documents:: grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 15:43 |
| faz_kn | okay | 15:43 |
| neezer | is there a networking specific channel here? | 15:43 |
| Trek | NoOutlet, whichever one has grub on it should be master | 15:44 |
| Trek | NoOutlet, other should be slave.' | 15:44 |
| xfact | Dr_Willis, On FAT the speed was average 10 Mb/s and now average 4MB/s (according copy-paste window) | 15:44 |
| erUSUL | neezer: #networking | 15:44 |
| faz_kn | how to avail highest resolution in xubuntu...... | 15:44 |
| erUSUL | neezer: who have guessed it? ;P | 15:44 |
| Trek | NoOutlet, the other issue is if GRUB can see the drive... | 15:44 |
| NoOutlet | Right. | 15:44 |
| NoOutlet | That's what I'm worried about. | 15:44 |
| guntbert | neezer: its ##networking (two dashes) | 15:44 |
| neezer | thanks erUSUL: i tried ubuntu-networking | 15:45 |
| Trek | NoOutlet, if the computer boots to the drive individually, then the issue lies not in drive issues, but GRUB issues... | 15:45 |
| guillaume | device I've just to reinstall the package of upslash in this case | 15:45 |
| erUSUL | neezer: ##networking is for networking in gneral it does not matter which os | 15:45 |
| Trek | NoOutlet, you might look into updating the GRUB list hold on a sec... | 15:45 |
| guillaume | if i'm on upsplash | 15:45 |
| guillaume | to find again my default screen splash when the computer start | 15:45 |
| om26er | guillaume, are you guigui14100 | 15:46 |
| faz_kn | how to avail highest resolution in xubuntu...... | 15:46 |
| pokoko222 | how can i see the tcp process in ubuntu? what is the name? | 15:46 |
| erUSUL | pokoko222: netstat? | 15:46 |
| d3vic3 | george__, i assume you're using grub : when booting press "e" key than append "vga=0x315" (without quotes) that will set your resolution to 800x600x24 and press Ctrl+x | 15:46 |
| xfact | ext3 is very slow file system, FAT is batter! | 15:47 |
| skiwithpete | hi | 15:47 |
| Dr_Willis | xfact: or the measureing is confused due to the cacheing/journel | 15:47 |
| rocket16 | I have been banned in a channel without any reason, how may I unban myself? | 15:47 |
| george__ | ok device thanks | 15:47 |
| Dr_Willis | xfact: you may want to try some other benchmark tools | 15:48 |
| skiwithpete | what prog is best for connecting to two FTP sites simultaneously | 15:48 |
| erUSUL | rocket16: you can not; you have to discuss the isuue with a chan op. ask in #freenode | 15:48 |
| rocket16 | Thanks erUSUL | 15:48 |
| skiwithpete | basically, I'm on A and I need to FTP files between B and C | 15:48 |
| erUSUL | rocket16: or if it is a #ubuntu* channel ask in #ubuntu-ops or #ubuntu-irc | 15:48 |
| xfact | Dr_Willis, Unfortunately I don't know about any benchmark tools on Ubuntu, PS. I am new here. | 15:48 |
| Trek | NoOutlet, try in console: sudo update-grub, not sure if it will update GRUB's lists of partitions | 15:48 |
| skiwithpete | anyone know of anything that does that? | 15:48 |
| Dr_Willis | xfact: i imagine you are worryng about a lot of nothing. Use ext2 if you want a linux filesystem and all teh permissions kept. or use vfat if you can live with the vfat limits | 15:49 |
| sipior | skiwithpete: can you not log in directly to the target machine? ftp from there? | 15:49 |
| rocket16 | Thanks erUSUL | 15:49 |
| NoOutlet | Okay, I'm going to try that again with the other harddrive installed. | 15:49 |
| NoOutlet | Back in a while. | 15:49 |
| erUSUL | skiwithpete: scp user1@machine1:path/to/files_in_1 user2@machine:path/to/files_in_2/ | 15:50 |
| skiwithpete | sipior, no, sadly not - neither are Linux boxes | 15:50 |
| Dr_Willis | xfact: a journeled filesystem can wear out your usb stick faster.. but i rarely worry about it | 15:50 |
| furythor | I got issue, I did install Open LDAP server according to this and I did not get promt for password, is there any way to recover it ? | 15:50 |
| furythor | https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/openldap-server.html | 15:50 |
| skiwithpete | erUSUL, I don't know what that means | 15:50 |
| xfact | Dr_Willis, Thank you for some reason | 15:50 |
| neezer | What is Location (URI): when trying to connect to a server? | 15:50 |
| Dr_Willis | skiwithpete: you could set up a fuseftp thing to each on the linux box and access both as iof they were local directories then copy stuff back/forth all day | 15:51 |
| furythor | neezer: your own or somewhere else ? | 15:51 |
| erUSUL | skiwithpete: if both are unix systemas with ssh intalled and running and you have accounts on bot machines you can use that command to copy files from one machine to the other | 15:51 |
| erUSUL | skiwithpete: but you've said that they are not unix boxes.... | 15:51 |
| skiwithpete | no, one is a NAS (proprietary unknown) and the other is a Windows Mobile phone (with FTP access) | 15:51 |
| Dr_Willis | !info fuseftp | 15:51 |
| ubottu | Package fuseftp does not exist in karmic | 15:51 |
| jrib | skiwithpete: out of curiousity, how do you intend on controlling B and C? | 15:51 |
| otswim | hello, i'm trying to use a second screen but i'm not able to do so. I opened nvidia-settings, and the second screen was successfully detected, but then when i want to configure the new screen and set it to "Twin View" or "Separate X Screen" i'm told that i have to save the configuration and restart X, but when i try to do so i get "Failed to parse existing X config file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'!"; what can i do? | 15:52 |
| skiwithpete | jrib, I just want to log into them both, and drag files from one to the other | 15:52 |
| skiwithpete | I'm rocking 9.10 | 15:52 |
| skiwithpete | on my main machine | 15:52 |
| Dr_Willis | otswim: find an existing xorg.conf as an example to copy to xorg.conf OR save it to another location first.. then copy that saved version to /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 15:53 |
| skiwithpete | no answer I'm guessing then... I just basically want FileZilla with 2 connection panes | 15:53 |
| Dr_Willis | otswim: alternaively try the nvidia-xconfig tool to make one | 15:54 |
| Pici | skiwithpete: gftp looks like it supports fxp, which is used to transfer files from two connected ftp servers. I've never used it though. | 15:54 |
| skiwithpete | thanks pici | 15:54 |
| neezer | furythor: I'm trying to connect to my home server. It is mine. | 15:54 |
| Dr_Willis | skiwithpete: thers also the 'fuse ftp' tools. | 15:54 |
| skiwithpete | will try that | 15:54 |
| abhi_nav | hi | 15:54 |
| furythor | neezer: on that machine or something else ? | 15:54 |
| MK13 | so i need MIPS compiling b/c of my computer organization class, will xSPIM allow me to compile and run MIPS code? | 15:54 |
| skiwithpete | am on the FUSE ftp site, can't see screenshots, and not in the repositories | 15:54 |
| neezer | furythor: sorry, i am trying to connect to my server box from my laptop. both have ubuntu on them. | 15:55 |
| BluesKaj | otswim, after saving the configuration , run nvidia-xconfig in the terminal , then restart X | 15:55 |
| sfd | how do i install the linux kernel source? is there a packqge i can apt get ? | 15:55 |
| erUSUL | sfd: linux-source | 15:55 |
| noellen | \msg NickServ identify brucata87 | 15:55 |

| skiwithpete | cheers, | 15:55 |
| skiwithpete | ttfn | 15:56 |
| MK13 | noellen, might wanna do that in the server tab | 15:56 |
| neezer | furythor: yes. I had it set up to go thorough ssh because I already have an ssh port forwarded to my server, but for some reason it isn't working. | 15:56 |
| sfd | anyone here use LILO ? I hqve updqted the | 15:56 |
| furythor | neezer: you know IP address of target computer ? | 15:57 |
| neezer | yes. | 15:57 |
| neezer | 192.168.1.105 | 15:57 |
| neezer | it is the internal one... I also know the one external one. | 15:57 |
| sfd | .conf file but itsnot registering, anyone know how to get LILO to use the new config file\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ | 15:57 |
| tiger_ | guys i am looking for an editor for html and or php and other website files with code and front end editing like dreamweaver is there one i dont care if free or not | 15:57 |
| Trek | neezer: is SSH running on your computer? | 15:57 |
| NoOutlet | Okay, I plugged the XP drive in and ran update-grub and got this: "grub-probe: error: Cannot find a GRUB drive for /dev/sdb1. Check your device.map." | 15:57 |
| neezer | Trek: not right now. | 15:57 |
| Trek | neezer: you need to run an SSH server on your server to gain access through that | 15:58 |
| MK13 | neezer, will you pm me what you are trying to do, so i can get caught up? | 15:58 |
| sipior | sfd: have you run "lilo"? | 15:58 |
| furythor | neezer: are you sure that your target box is online and it has net cable properly plugged ? | 15:58 |
| faz_kn | how to avail highest resolution in xubuntu...... | 15:58 |
| Trek | NoOutlet, then perhaps its stored on the Ubuntu drive | 15:58 |
| Trek | NoOutlet, you need the Ubuntu drive in as well, the bootloader files are stored on there | 15:59 |
| jepster | hi, I have a winxp in my vbox. the port 80 is free on my router and I can see the localhost of my ubuntu-webserver in winxp. but the vhosts which are not in /var/www and which are visible by typing http://my-website on ubuntu, cannot be viewed in the vbox. how I can see this vhosts in my vbox-winxp? | 15:59 |
| sipior | sfd: /sbin/lilo, in case it's not in your path. | 15:59 |
| neezer | furythor: yes. I just ssh'd into right now. I am logged in via ssh on the command line. | 15:59 |
| erUSUL | !html > tiger_ | 15:59 |
| ubottu | tiger_, please see my private message | 15:59 |
| MK13 | neezer, so you are trying to access it over the internet, which you know your external ip and the router forwards the 22 port to the server box? | 15:59 |
| furythor | neezer: and you need to know IP address or you can't connect ? | 15:59 |
| Waceman | Hey guys, how do I completely whipe out and reformat my usb stick? It appears it may be corrupted, and I cannot access it in Ubuntu (nor on other pc's) | 16:00 |
| neezer | Trek: sorry about the confusion. I have ssh running. I thought you meant to ask if I was connected to it. i was not, but I am. | 16:00 |
| Trek | neezer: okay, your issue is gaining external access to it from outside your network? | 16:00 |
| neezer | MK13: it forwards port 2222, but yes. | 16:00 |
| NoOutlet | Okay, I've got an idea. | 16:00 |
| abhi_nav | tiger_: try qunata plus | 16:00 |
| inveratulo | Waceman: fdisk to create partition, then mkfs for filesystem | 16:00 |
| Trek | neezer: is the port you're forwarding to your server box opened on your server box to the external network? | 16:01 |
| neezer | Trek: I have gained external access from an outside network. I can do it by just using my external ip address in the ssh command | 16:01 |
| abhi_nav | tiger_: u thr? | 16:01 |
| MK13 | neezer, but it forwards the 2222 external port to 22 internal.... or did you change the ssh on the server? | 16:01 |
| WeirdAAR | Hey, does anybody know if there is a plugin for gedit to make highlight the open and close tags that go together ? like the <div> and the relevant </div> ? | 16:01 |
| Trek | neezer: MK13, are you using port 22 or port 2222 on the server itself (internal network ports)? | 16:01 |
| neezer | MK13: I changed it on the server and router. it is set up to recieve an ssh connection on port 2222. it works perfectly. | 16:01 |
| gafir | hello, I'm using MySQL Query Browser and trying to make a backtick for my query. I can't seem to find how to type a backtick on my Dell laptop Inspiron 1545. does anybody knows how to do this: ` | 16:02 |
| sfd | sipior, i did that but i got an error Fatal: raid_setup: stat('/dev/sda1') | 16:02 |
| MK13 | neezer, ok then what are you having problems with? | 16:02 |
| inveratulo | gafir - its not on the nina key? | 16:02 |
| neezer | Trek, MK13: I am using port 2222. Everything works fine from command line. | 16:02 |
| furythor | neezer: you got it to work right ? | 16:02 |
| gafir | inveratulo: Oh! You're right! Thanks! didn't know where it was!! ```` | 16:02 |
| Trek | neezer, then what exactly are you having issues with? (MK13's question) | 16:02 |
| Lee_Ubun | I get logged off at random, i'm using 9.10 I don't know what is causing this to happen 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device | 16:03 |
| sipior | sfd: probably an error in your lilo.conf. | 16:03 |
| neezer | MK13, furythor, Trek: when I go to Places -> Connect to server and try to put things in there I get stuck. I'd like to be able to browse the folders with a GUI and drag and drop onto the server rather than have to scp all the time. I had it set up 3 weeks ago running perfectly. It would connect via an ssh tunnel. I moved. I couldn't find a way to just change the IP address on the saved connection so I deleted them. Now I can't get new | 16:04 |
| neezer | ones reestablished. | 16:04 |
| Schui | hello, are there any networking administrators or professionals here? i need to interview someone for my course and thought this might be a good place to look | 16:04 |

I opened nvidia-settings, and the second screen was successfully detected, but then when i want to configure the new screen and set it to "Twin View" or "Separate X Screen" i'm told that i have to save the configuration and restart X, but when i try to do so i get "Failed to parse existing X config file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'!"; what can i do? | 16:04 |
| mortus | Hello,Question 9.10version to 8.4 LTS,having issue with i845 Video in startX,where can I find Command line ONLY Mini ISO for 8.4x thanks??? | 16:04 |
| Trek | neezer: i know your issues... | 16:04 |
| MK13 | neezer, kk i under stand now | 16:05 |
| owner | Schui - I have CCNA ;-) | 16:05 |
| erUSUL | !minimal | 16:05 |
| 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 | 16:05 |
| Trek | neezer: Places -> connect to server, service type SSH | 16:05 |
| faz_kn | how to avail highest resolution in xubuntu...... | 16:05 |
| Schui | owner - awesome! mind if i get a few minutes of your time? | 16:05 |
| Waceman | inveratulo: how do I use fdisk and mkfs? | 16:05 |
| Trek | neezer: use your server ip, port 2222, your username | 16:05 |
| Trek | neezer: connect, it should ask for password | 16:05 |
| owner | I am agree | 16:06 |
| furythor | neezer: you gotta select ssh from list and insert needed information | 16:06 |
| neezer | I don't have that option Trek. the only thing in the drop down menu for service type is Custom Location | 16:06 |
| Trek | neezer: should give you access | 16:06 |
| Trek | neezer: then something's messed on your system, I've got SSH in the connections list | 16:06 |
| mortus | thank You Ubo BOT! 8-) | 16:06 |
| Trek | neezer: you could get an FTP client and use SFTP on your system | 16:06 |
| neezer | Trek, I did too before the move. | 16:06 |
| inveratulo | Waceman: First you have to find out which device your USB key is: do this by typing "fdisk -l" and you'll see several devices like "/dev/sdc" or "/dev/sdb"... /dev/sda is typically your primary drive, but the sizes are shown so make darn sure you know which one is your key | 16:07 |
| ionut | what is a switch? | 16:07 |
| neezer | Trek, I'd rather not. I want to only have one port forwarded to the server. | 16:07 |
| blakkheim | Trek: sftp is built into openssh | 16:07 |
| Trek | blakkheim / neezer: i know that sftp is built in, you don't need to open a new port | 16:07 |
| inveratulo | Waceman: Once you know the device, fdisk it by typing "fdisk /dev/sdc" or whichever device it is. | 16:07 |
| mortus | Question for Ubu in the the KNOW., Whats Major DIFF between 8.04 and 9.10 MINIMUM INSTALL GUI???Thanks??? | 16:08 |
| Trek | blakkheim / neezer: on my WINDOWS comp: I use Filezilla to remote into my ubuntu server with sftp, same port as I use for SSH | 16:08 |
| neezer | Trek: ok. but why would my drop down menu not have the proper selections? | 16:08 |
| Trek | neezer: i'm not entirely certain as to why it wouldn't be providing you the proper selections. | 16:08 |
| inveratulo | Waceman: Go through and remove all the partitions (there's a menu that shows you what keys to press). Make one "Linux" partition, and exit | 16:08 |
| Waceman | inveratulo: "fdisk -l" does nothing? | 16:09 |
| inveratulo | Waceman: you will either have to run it as root or sudo it | 16:09 |
| neezer | Trek: I also get an error from nautilus when I try to just use ssh//:ipaddress:port it says Nautilus cannot handle "network" locations | 16:10 |
| Waceman | inveratulo: thanks. It only shows my hdd partitions. I think my disk my be broken. | 16:10 |
| mortus | Hello, Any Opinion on Difference Minimum GUI Install for Speed between 8.04-9.10 Would be Greatly Appreciated,Having issue with Intel i845 Video Chipset and compiz | 16:10 |
| Trek | neezer: then the issue is that something is messed up with your install, specifically with Nautilus | 16:10 |
| MK13 | neezer: http://www.linux-archive.org/ubuntu-user/301089-help-places-connect-server.html | 16:10 |
| SlimG | What is the mount parameters/arguments to mount a encrypted /oldhome/slimg/ to /mnt/, so I can copy some of the content from /mnt to /home/slimg/, I have the proper passphrase | 16:10 |
| Trek | neezer: if not with Nautilus, then something's either missing or corrupted. I don't have a solution for you at this time | 16:11 |
| inveratulo | Waceman: Pull out your USB drive. Wait 5 seconds. Plug it back in and then run "sudo tail -n 50 /var/log/messages" and post the results to pastebin | 16:11 |
| erUSUL | !ecryptfs | 16:11 |
| MK13 | neezer, oops don't think it actually has the solution he used... one sec | 16:11 |
| neezer | Trek: Thanks for the help. I appreciate it. | 16:11 |

| trism | dbdii407: gnome-screenshot by default in ubuntu, but there are lighter ones such as scrot that you could use from the command line | 16:12 |
| neezer | Thanks MK13: it looks like I can go to synaptic and remove nautilus permenently then reinstall it. | 16:12 |
| MK13 | neezer, looks like completely removing nautilus then reinstalling it worked for some one else | 16:12 |
| MK13 | neezer, u were alittle quicker than me :( | 16:13 |

| MK13 | neezer, kk just pm me about how it turns out | 16:14 |
| trism | dbdii407: it is in gnome-utils | 16:14 |
| neezer | MK13: when I am removing it if I get rid of gnome session will that be a problme? | 16:14 |
| Trek | neezer: no problem | 16:15 |
| MK13 | neezer, that i cannot answer :( ^^ nevermind | 16:15 |
| neezer | MK13, Trek: ok. I'll brb. | 16:15 |
| Waceman | inveratulo: http://pastebin.com/d2fd6a4f2 | 16:15 |
| MK13 | Trek, what exactly is gnome session? | 16:16 |
| inveratulo | Waceman: looks like your drive is sdb. When you do a "sudo fdisk -l " do you see a /dev/sdb in there anywhere ? | 16:16 |
| exs | hi | 16:17 |
| MK13 | Trek, nevermind google helped me | 16:17 |
| exs | how to find out which package contains a certain file? | 16:17 |
| neezer | Trek, MK13: would you guys recommend a reboot between removal and re-install? | 16:17 |
| exs | i search for gftp? | 16:17 |
| Waceman | inveratulo: no I don't - I see sda1, sda2, sda3, and that's all | 16:17 |

| John-_ | can I make the partitions on my hard drive big enough so that the total space occupied is equal to the total amount available on my external | 16:18 |
| inveratulo | waceman: something seems off, what happens when you do "fdisk /dev/sdb" ? | 16:18 |
| Waceman | inveratulo: it says unable to open | 16:19 |
| inveratulo | waceman: even if you do it as root? | 16:19 |
| Waceman | yup | 16:20 |
| owner | su root | 16:20 |
| Waceman | inveratulo: sudo fdisk /dev/sdb | 16:20 |
| inveratulo | waceman: in that case I suspect a hardware issue... does it work elsewhere? | 16:20 |
| dbdii407 | Question though. Why is open office included in a 'server' install? | 16:20 |
| Waceman | in WinXP it says "insert disk ...." | 16:21 |
| Pete43 | I boot ubuntu, after it shows the login name menu - the mouse and select bar is frozen. how to solve so What package or keystrokes may be responsible for it likely locking? | 16:21 |
| astra-x | So I have an external harddrive i want to keep synced with my ~/Downloads - Finished directory. What would be the best way to do that? rsync, cron-job, /etc/fstab with hardlink? | 16:21 |
| inveratulo | Waceman: it must be some kind of issue between the USB controller on the drive and the flash storage. you may wish to try another drive. | 16:21 |
| Waceman | inveratulo: in Win XP it says "insert disk etc..." - it could be a hardware failure, or maybe a virus did some damage? Is there a way to just whipe it completely clean? | 16:22 |
| Waceman | inveratulo: does a usb stick have any firmware that could've been damaged? | 16:23 |
| inveratulo | Waceman: I cannot speak to that, but based on what you've told us it looks to be not related to OS. | 16:23 |
| hxm | hello, is there a way to configure network manager via console? or see what is the configuration file with my created profile? | 16:23 |
| astra-x | hxm: networkManager has a cli for controlling it | 16:23 |
| Waceman | inveratulo: it does seem that way. Sorry if I wasted your time. thought it may be easier to diagnose via ubuntu | 16:24 |
| hxm | cli is command like rhythmbox-client in example? | 16:24 |
| rblst | if i want to browse my mobile phone with blueman in ubuntu 9.10, i get an error like this: could not display obex://[00:1F:DF:53:2A:C3]/; what can i do about it? | 16:25 |
| inveratulo | Waceman: no worries, btw you did diagnose the problem! | 16:25 |
| sofi | hola¡¡ | 16:25 |

| astra-x | hxm: cli is the bash terminal, where you do things like "ls" "cp" "ssh" and so forth | 16:26 |
| hxm | ah, damn Im so noob | 16:26 |
| Pete43 | I boot ubuntu, after it shows the login name menu - the mouse and select bar is frozen. how to solve so What package or keystrokes may be responsible for it likely locking? | 16:26 |
| sofi | ubottu:pos yo como k de ingles no se mucho | 16:26 |
| Waceman | inveratulo: yeah I guess so :) what I find strange is that I can see it when I click on Computer. but clicking on it does nothing | 16:26 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 16:26 |
| vlt | Hello. Does anyone know something like pastebin for small (< 1M) binary files? | 16:27 |
| hxm | sofi: no te van a hacer caso si no hablas inglés, o si no entras en esos canales #ubuntu-es | 16:27 |
| astra-x | hxm: a very good way to learn Linux is do a fully custom gentoo install (stage 3 is OK), or do a full slackware install and configuration | 16:27 |
| inveratulo | Waceman: yea Ubuntu is doing the same sorta thing in a roundabout way, the USB controller is successfully negotiating with the OS, but the storage is unavailable for whatever reason. it happens :-/ | 16:27 |
| hxm | astra-x: that sounds hurt | 16:27 |
| astra-x | hxm: the documentation may seem confusing at first, but if you just keep at it, i know you'll understand | 16:27 |
| sofi | i don't like this channel :( | 16:28 |
| hxm | :) there i go then | 16:28 |
| astra-x | hxm: but it is very well documented, especially for gentoo and ubuntu | 16:28 |

| Waceman | inveratulo: I see, guess I need a new stick! Thanks so much for your help! | 16:28 |
| hxm | good to known, at least for the future when i have free time | 16:28 |
| sofi | why i can't speak spanish?? | 16:29 |

| nyqvist | hi guys. if i got a creative webcam and i don't see any linux drivers for it, is there any chance to install it? | 16:36 |
| astra-x | llutz: yes, but if you have an understanding of Linux as a whole, not distro specific; any task will become easier | 16:36 |
| astra-x | llutz: those are tools for learning how Linux works, regardless of distro | 16:37 |
| MK13 | nyqvist, most webcams work right off the bat w/ ubuntu | 16:37 |
| sfd | liloconfig is complaining about my fstab file, it says it cannot recognize my /dev/sda1 drive as a block device, yet when i run fdisk -l it lists correctly, whats going on | 16:37 |
| sfd | ? | 16:37 |
| nyqvist | MK13, meaning what? | 16:37 |
| abhi_nav | nyqvist: if ur webcam is not working, first have a look at thier web site, may be the have driver for linux | 16:38 |
| nyqvist | there isn't a driver for linux, i checked. | 16:38 |
| MK13 | nyqvist, have you already tried any programs like cheese to see if it shows up? | 16:38 |
| llutz | nyqvist: check lsusb for prod/vendor-id, use it to feed google to find a suitable driver | 16:38 |
| nyqvist | i'm trying skype right now, i can see my m8.. but i don't have a webcam device in my preferences. | 16:38 |
| MK13 | nyqvist, then go with what llutz says | 16:39 |
| abhi_nav | nyqvist: be sure that skype settings for the webcam is ok | 16:39 |

| nyqvist | lsusb* | 16:40 |
| marcuy | gngkai, si | 16:41 |
| MK13 | nyqvist, a program that lists all devices connected via usb | 16:41 |
| marcuy | gngkai, apt-cache search vmware | 16:41 |
| nyqvist | so i should get a program called lsusb? | 16:41 |
| fbianconi | nyqvist, it's a command you can run on a terminal | 16:41 |
| MK13 | nyqvist, it is already installed | 16:42 |
| nyqvist | what is the command pls? | 16:42 |
| dbdii407 | nyqvist, Linux is quite different from Windows. | 16:42 |
| marcuy | nyqvist, the commando is lsusb | 16:42 |
| marcuy | *command | 16:42 |
| nyqvist | just lsusb? | 16:42 |
| dbdii407 | Mhmm | 16:42 |
| marcuy | yes | 16:42 |
| nyqvist | emm | 16:42 |
| nyqvist | let me check | 16:42 |
| Pete43 | why is my login screen frozen? | 16:42 |
| marcuy | it may have cold Pete43 | 16:43 |
| marcuy | ;) | 16:43 |
| Pete43 | wait, i see the problem, it has 12inches of snow on it | 16:43 |
| nyqvist | can it be this > Bus 002 Device 002: ID 045e:0748 Microsoft Corp. | 16:43 |
| marcuy | lol | 16:43 |
| sfd | k | 16:43 |

| tenji | Hello, I'm new to ubuntu and can't use my ATI Radeon Xpress 200M graphics card.. any pointers | 16:44 |
| Pete43 | i am alittle bit newbie, what does the gdm do | 16:44 |
| nyqvist | yep, i'm using a microsoft mouse.. so maybe i will dc the webcam and scan the changes? will doing it without rr the pc do the trick? | 16:45 |
| marcuy | stands for gnome display manager | 16:45 |
| marcuy | so it's the login screen that you see | 16:45 |
| Pete43 | at root level under recovery, change its options? | 16:46 |
| neezer | Trek MK13: that solution did not work...I tried completely removing nautilus and reinstalling it. When removing nautilus, it also wants to remove gnome session. I got rid of that and restarted. Then reloaded all those things. but still no options besides custom connection in that drop down menu. | 16:46 |
| youknoweddavis | has anyone had any luck with ATI mobiltity cards? | 16:47 |
| Pete43 | marcuy, i do know how to force a reinstall of that package. is that useful in this problem? | 16:47 |
| marcuy | Pete43, try with: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart | 16:48 |
| marcuy | this will restart the service | 16:48 |
| NotTooSmart | got a program frozen to my tty2 ( i killed the program using kill -9 and pid but the program is still on my terminal screen? ctrl+c or q or esc none works I can't get rid of it but ps aux says it is not running anymore | 16:49 |
| Pete43 | it said it was converted in an upstart job and something about using a restart utility | 16:50 |
| llutz | Pete43: sudo service gdm restart | 16:50 |
| nyqvist | guys, if i'm disconnecting a usb device from the pc, will i see the change right away in the lsubs or should i rr the pc first and then run the lsubs again? | 16:50 |

| Trek | owner, in what context are you trying to? I understand what you are asking, i'm talking about how the network is set up... home network? office network? internet provider? | 16:57 |
| lotus | vlt I'll check, but I think they'l be flashing cause i'm on IRC too | 16:57 |
| erUSUL | andyland: not safely; i do not know of a workaround other than using othe filesystem in the hardisk | 16:57 |
| Trek | owner: IPs are not stored locally, their reassigned by routers and DHCP | 16:57 |
| marcuy | Pete43, go gui | 16:57 |
| Trek | owner: you'd be messing with network-wide configurations | 16:57 |
| owner | Trek - home network | 16:58 |
| Pete43 | marcuy, so whats my next step? so far i don't think i did any change yet | 16:58 |

| soreau | ionut: Look at the description. In reality, there is no such thing as a 'compiz theme' but instead, you may theme different components and coupled with compiz effects may generate a theme-like effect | 17:12 |

| Moster | hi, I've just installed Ubuntu Server 9.04 and then installed Webmin 1.5 - when i log onto webmin and view Software Package Updates there are over 100 updates - is it recommended to keep up to date with package updates in this way?

| om26er | Moster, being upto date is better | 17:19 |

| erUSUL | !lamp | PhoenixSTF | 17:42 |
| ubottu | PhoenixSTF: 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+) | 17:42 |

| Pianoman13 | i have rebooted and need to continue setup the network, what would be my next step, thank you | 17:45 |
| iceroot | PhoenixSTF: just copy the webüage with ftp, scp, sftp, wget or something you like | 17:45 |
| PhoenixSTF | ok im kind of noob on ubuntu or any other linux, love it but never bother mutch on learning it,so cut me some slack and walk with me a bit on this one | 17:45 |
| om26er | how to get source from a ppa through terminal? | 17:45 |
| PhoenixSTF | ok ftp | 17:46 |
| Trek | mikeconcepts: did you install a bootloader? | 17:46 |
| PhoenixSTF | where should i start | 17:46 |
| arooni | whats the best tool to visually diff git on ubuntu karmic koala? | 17:46 |
| Trek | PhoenixSTF: either in the command line or with an FTP client like Filezilla | 17:46 |
| iceroot | PhoenixSTF: use sftp, there you dont have to install something on the server | 17:46 |
| michaeldobrovits | Hello people of ubuntu | 17:46 |
| iceroot | PhoenixSTF: you filezilla and connect with sftp, then copy the content to the server | 17:46 |
| om26er | Hi, michaeldobrovits | 17:46 |
| jjrev | arooni: i like Meld | 17:46 |
| Trek | !hi | michaeldobrovits, | 17:47 |
| ubottu | michaeldobrovits,: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! | 17:47 |
| mikeconcepts | Trek: I assume so since grub lists everything | 17:47 |
| michaeldobrovits | is there somekind of an issue in burning cds in ubuntu 9.1 64bit? | 17:47 |
| PhoenixSTF | iceroot: thanks ill try filezilla | 17:47 |
| hareldvd | Any package to view DICOM images? | 17:47 |
| Trek | mikeconcepts: sounds like the issue might be on the partition-side | 17:47 |
| Pianoman13 | can someone help me do the following instructions | 17:47 |
| mikeconcepts | Trek: mint boot but xp flashes a quick bluescreen and reboots | 17:47 |
| arooni | jjrev, is there a way to use Meld to make changes to the actual files? | 17:47 |
| Pianoman13 | now you can configure it by right clicking it -> "edit connections" -> Wireless tab -> Add -> IPv4 settings ... and you should be ok :) | 17:47 |
| erUSUL | arooni: gitk and git gui both show diffs visually ... you want a merge tool ? | 17:47 |
| arooni | jjrev, instead of temp files | 17:47 |
| Trek | mikeconcepts: what type of computer | 17:47 |
| d3vic3 | Pianoman13, i suppose you're using Gnome, go to System -> Preferences -> Network connections -> click on Wireless tab -> click Add -> go to IPv4 settings | 17:47 |
| jjrev | arooni: yes indeed | 17:47 |
| Blue1 | what do I need to add to totem so it will play dvd's? | 17:48 |
| tfrew | libdvdcss2 | 17:48 |
| gwern | system info: http://pastebin.com/m12236801 my problem: I upgraded to karmic a few days ago. ever since, I've noticed that if I plug in a USB device - I tried out my scanner (epson perfection 3170 photo) and my GP2X - my system will completely freeze on the next mouse move/keyboard press. the screen is completely static, no keys work, and I cannot ping my box or ssh in. I left a dmesg|tail running when I turned on my scanner, and there were no USB ... | 17:48 |
| gwern | ... related messages or new messages at all. I tried googling but my best keywords are too generic - I didn't find any analogous cases. (the crash occurs after I turn on the USB device). curiously, once I switch off the power and hard cycle, I get a message that /home and some disk-UID can't be mounted, but if I want a minute or so, ubuntu continues booting and everything seems fine. any ideas? | 17:48 |
| michaeldobrovits | is there somekind of an issue in burning cds in ubuntu 9.1 64bit that i need to be aware of?? | 17:48 |
| arooni | jjrev, ok i installed meld how do i use it now? i do want a diff/merge tool yes | 17:48 |
| mikeconcepts | Trek, the first partition is hidden, netbook, and the procedure to recover the netbook seems broken as well | 17:48 |
| d3vic3 | Pianoman13, have a web browser handy and a terminal to test if it's not already connected! | 17:48 |
| Pianoman13 | ok so far so good | 17:48 |
| iceroot | hareldvd: apt-cache search dicom | 17:48 |
| nyqvist | hi. i used in win7 bintorrent client, it had the option to fake upload.. is there any for ubuntu? | 17:48 |
| Trek | mikeconcepts, i asked what type of computer you have, not the partition table | 17:48 |
| arooni | jjrev, what tool would you recomend? | 17:48 |
| iceroot | Blue1: sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2 | 17:48 |
| mikeconcepts | Trek, a Toshiba nb305 netbook | 17:49 |
| jjrev | arooni: just open the program and start a new session. you can do directorys or individual files, and even 3 way diff/merge | 17:49 |
| Pianoman13 | do i need to have a client id? | 17:49 |
| PhoenixSTF | iceroot: where do i find the login for ftp? | 17:49 |
| Blue1 | tfrew: Package libdvdcss2 is not available, but is referred to by another package. | 17:49 |
| Trek | mikeconcepts, my guess is something went screwy with the partition tables, perhaps thats the issue | 17:49 |
| iceroot | PhoenixSTF: sftp | 17:49 |
| iceroot | PhoenixSTF: its your user-login, the same as for ssh | 17:49 |
| arooni | jjrev, so i can make changes to the ACTUAL Files in my project directory; not just temp ones? | 17:50 |
| Trek | mikeconcepts, as to what the issue is, I don't know specifically, other than perhaps your partitions are messed | 17:50 |
| PhoenixSTF | oh ok thanks | 17:50 |
| jjrev | arooni: yep | 17:50 |
| mikeconcepts | Trek, got a link on anything I can study for that? | 17:50 |
| Pianoman13 | the method shows automatique (DHCP) | 17:50 |
| Trek | mikeconcepts: unfortunately not, partition issues sometimes stem back to hard drive issues | 17:50 |
| arooni | jjrev, how do i select a remote repository in meld? it seems like its only directory to directory diff | 17:51 |
| michaeldobrovits | i have nec cd/dvd 3500ag writer and it seems like any program i try to use to burn with doesn't work, i've tried k3b, gnomebaker, brasero here's k3b pastbin debug: http://pastebin.com/d4c0327fa | 17:51 |
| nyqvist | any can answer me pls? | 17:51 |
| d3vic3 | Pianoman13, no, do you know if your modem is using dhcp? cause i assumed you have to configure your connection parameters manually | 17:51 |
| PhoenixSTF | iceroot: connection reffused by server | 17:51 |
| bullgard | https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/desktop-lucid-dx-integration is headlined: "Integrating DX work into Lucid desktop." What is meant by 'DX work'? | 17:51 |
| Pianoman13 | it is probably using dhcp | 17:51 |
| phpmonk | any fingerprint scanner sdk/api for Ubuntu? | 17:52 |
| jjrev | arooni: as long as you can see the files from your "explorer/finder" app, you can use Meld | 17:52 |
| iceroot | PhoenixSTF: you choose sftp://yourhostame with your user-login? ssh is installed on default port 22? | 17:52 |
| trism | bullgard: I believe it stands for desktop experience (from a quick read of the blueprint) | 17:52 |
| arooni | jjrev, so i cant use meld to diff/merge compaerd to a remote source control repository (like github)? | 17:52 |
| Trek | PhoenixSTF, you using Filezilla? | 17:52 |
| llutz | phpmonk: libfprint0 | 17:52 |
| PhoenixSTF | yes on windows | 17:53 |
| Pianoman13 | i have a linksys wireless-G router | 17:53 |
| d3vic3 | Pianoman13, well, open a terminal and ping google.com than waitt 5sec and abort using key combination Ctrl+c | 17:53 |
| Trek | PhoenixSTF, is SSH configured on your Ubuntu comp? | 17:53 |
| jjrev | arooni: you should be able to diff/merge anything visible to your host machine (assuming no special tools are required) | 17:53 |
| bullgard | trism: Ah! A good idea! Thank you. | 17:53 |
| michaeldobrovits | i have nec cd/dvd 3500ag writer in usb external case and it seems like any program i try to use to burn with doesn't work, i've tried k3b, gnomebaker, brasero here's k3b pastbin debug: http://pastebin.com/d4c0327fa please help | 17:53 |
| PhoenixSTF | dont know | 17:53 |
| remoteCTRL3 | hi guys! i have just installed karmic on a friends pavillon dv7 and somehow a few things dont seem to work here, like webcam, anyone know a goot howto? | 17:53 |
| d3vic3 | Pianoman13, use pastebin.com to show me the output if you don't know what it means :) | 17:53 |
| iceroot | PhoenixSTF: how do you access the server if not ssh? | 17:53 |
| PhoenixSTF | bear with me | 17:53 |
| Trek | !repeat | michaeldobrovits | 17:53 |
| ubottu | michaeldobrovits: 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. | 17:53 |
| Lathund | WinRAR is default app for RAR-archives in Nautilus. I have removed Wine and the settings for Wine but nothing changed. | 17:53 |
| PhoenixSTF | login on the machine | 17:54 |
| iceroot | Lathund: winrar = windows | 17:54 |
| arooni | jjrev, how do i see the remote respository? or do i have to git clone it each time i want to diff? | 17:54 |
| Trek | PhoenixSTF, you most likely don't have remote access enabled yet | 17:54 |
| Lathund | iceroot: I know. But my friend needed it to unpack a old game. | 17:54 |
| Trek | PhoenixSTF, go onto your ubuntu machine yourself and install openssh-server | 17:54 |
| === Gateway is now known as Guest6175 | ||
| PhoenixSTF | ok help me on this one ill pay u guys a beer | 17:54 |
| === Guest6175 is now known as Gateway` | ||
| iceroot | Lathund: then he should use unrar | 17:54 |
| Pianoman13 | do i have to let it run a long time= or just 5 sec | 17:54 |
| jjrev | arooni: likely you will have to clone it first (similar to 'svn co' I guess?) | 17:54 |
| Lathund | iceroot: It didnt work with unrar | 17:55 |
| Trek | PhoenixSTF, go to your Ubuntu comp. Open a terminal window. Type: sudo apt-get install openssh-server | 17:55 |
| iceroot | Lathund: why? | 17:55 |
| Trek | PhoenixSTF, then reboot | 17:55 |
| Trek | PhoenixSTF, then reboot the Ubuntu computer | 17:55 |
| Trek | PhoenixSTF, then try to remote in | 17:55 |
| phpmonk | llutz, I have secugen fingerprint scanner, can i use the lib for it? | 17:55 |
| Trek | PhoenixSTF, using the SFTP method on Filezilla | 17:55 |
| Lathund | iceroot: file-roller couldnt handle the archive. | 17:55 |
| d3vic3 | remoteCTRL3, try using an guvcview or cheese : sudo apt-get install guvcview | 17:55 |
| jjrev | arooni: trunks should not be modified 'on the fly' anyway.. you should always make changes to a local copy, test it, then check it back in... | 17:55 |
| PhoenixSTF | thanks trek doing it ATM | 17:55 |
| iceroot | Trek: PhoenixSTF no reboot needed for installing ssh | 17:55 |
| d3vic3 | Pianoman13, no, just few seconds :) | 17:55 |
| llutz | phpmonk: idk, check documentation | 17:55 |
| blakkheim | Trek: why use filezilla when sftp comes with openssh? | 17:55 |
| turbowei | Is there a deb package that adds graphics file operations (such as rotate, resize) onto nautilus's context menu? | 17:56 |
| iceroot | Lathund: unrar is not installed by default | 17:56 |
| Lathund | iceroot: I know. | 17:56 |
| Trek | blakkheim: he's on Windows :P | 17:56 |
| owner_ | I need some master-class in re-styling my Ubuntu 9.10. For example best fonts, and... clear-type screen fonts, and... most beautiful theme(based on black and dark colors)... what can I google for ? | 17:56 |
| iceroot | blakkheim: filezilla = sftp client | 17:56 |
| blakkheim | Trek: oh ok | 17:56 |
| Pianoman13 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/377004/ | 17:56 |
| PhoenixSTF | Got it | 17:56 |
| turbowei | Question, Is there a deb package that adds graphics file operations (such as rotate, resize) onto nautilus's context menu? | 17:56 |
| Trek | blakkheim: trying to access remotely, and he's using filezilla to access the server using SFTP as the protocol | 17:56 |
| PhoenixSTF | now i got to pay the beers | 17:56 |
| turbowei | owner_, gnome-look.org | 17:56 |
| owner_ | thank you | 17:56 |
| blakkheim | iceroot: i know, i assumed he was using linux since this is #ubuntu | 17:56 |
| Trek | PhoenixSTF, you owe me NOTHING (I would take the beer and give it to someone else anyways :P) | 17:57 |
| GodzKnightz | Was asked to do the following on forums to possibly solve the problem of my wireless " sudo rmmod -f iwlagn " and " sudo modprobe iwlagn swcrypto=1 " and now my wireless connection wont stay connected to the unsecure networks.. how do i reverse those commands or fix it | 17:57 |
| Lathund | How do I remove the Wine integration in Nautilus? | 17:57 |
| PhoenixSTF | oh cmon u dont waste beer like that | 17:57 |
| d3vic3 | Pianoman13, everything is ok ;) just use your browser | 17:57 |
| Lathund | It's really annoying. | 17:57 |
| PhoenixSTF | specialy my homeland beer | 17:57 |
| Pianoman13 | but right now i am connected with a wire | 17:57 |
| Trek | PhoenixSTF, if you don't drink beer, then you take the beer and sell it to someone :P | 17:57 |
| jjrev | GodzKnightz: i would just use the same commands without the "swcrypto=1" | 17:58 |
| d3vic3 | Pianoman13, like you got pastebin.com!!! | 17:58 |
| Trek | PhoenixSTF, anyways, I digress, back to the issue | 17:58 |
| Pianoman13 | the problem is that my laptop did not work when i undocked it this weekend | 17:58 |
| PhoenixSTF | trek: lol thanks anyway the invation stys up u to icerrot | 17:58 |
| Pianoman13 | are you saying it will now work? | 17:58 |
| d3vic3 | Pianoman13, yep, try and tell me :) | 17:59 |
| Trek | PhoenixSTF, after you install openssh-server, you should have access, so let us know if it works | 17:59 |
| PhoenixSTF | its working | 17:59 |
| Pianoman13 | ok i will probably desconnect but i will get back in, thanks d3vic3 | 17:59 |
| PhoenixSTF | now where do i sitck the web page | 17:59 |
| Trek | well, the SFTP issue is done... now to figure out where you stick the page, and thats where I'm done (goes off to get coffee) | 18:00 |
| PhoenixSTF | ok | 18:00 |

| docmax | hi, how can i run a second X-session on my second screen? | 18:01 |
| erUSUL | !blacklist | bj0rn2 | 18:01 |
| ubottu | bj0rn2: To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add « blacklist <modulename> » to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type « sudo update-initramfs -u » | 18:01 |
| bj0rn2 | erUSUL: I cannot blacklist until I've been able to boot the system, and I cannot boot without disbling said driver | 18:02 |
| Pianoman13 | ping unknown host google.com | 18:02 |
| Trek | bj0rn2: load a live cd and access the data directly in your drive | 18:02 |
| bj0rn2 | Trek: live cd won't boot :) | 18:03 |
| remoteCTRL3 | i need an ubuntu language pack pls | 18:03 |
| Pianoman13 | as soon as i docked my laptop to the station it reconnected | 18:03 |
| Trek | bj0rn2: so the issue is your computer won't boot period? | 18:03 |
| AlphaOne | how do I stop having a LOG IN for when ubuntu boots up? | 18:03 |
| erUSUL | bj0rn2: but noload is not a kernel parameter afaics | 18:03 |
| firestarter87 | n | 18:03 |
| bj0rn2 | erUSUL: I'm trying to follow bigups posted advice here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/479597 | 18:04 |
| Pianoman13 | for your information d3vic3, the wireless works under the vista environment | 18:04 |
| erUSUL | remoteCTRL3: they are in the repos | 18:04 |
| Avogadro | What is a good light-weight window-manager that supports fullscreen mplayer ? | 18:05 |
| bj0rn2 | Trek: yes, at least normal and recovery boot.. alternative cd install worked though so I have a complete install | 18:05 |
| d3vic3 | Pianoman13, once undocked your laptop can't connect wireless while it does under vista, is that what you're telling me? | 18:06 |
| erUSUL | bj0rn2: that noload is for the livecd not for the installed system ... | 18:06 |
| Pianoman13 | yes | 18:06 |
| Trek | bj0rn2: so if the issue is your computer won't boot, and it won't boot the live cd, is it at all possible you've got hardware issues | 18:06 |
| Pianoman13 | but i dont want to use vista anymore | 18:06 |
| bj0rn2 | Trek: known problem with a wifi driver on my hardware yes. | 18:07 |
| mrssanders1987 | does anyone know how to get the coupon printer to install? | 18:07 |
| erUSUL | bj0rn2: you add it pressing f6 at boot | 18:07 |
| bj0rn2 | erUSUL: I see. so I should try to get my system up using this flag then blacklist on my install | 18:07 |
| erUSUL | bj0rn2: read the #13 comment | 18:07 |
| erUSUL | bj0rn2: yes that comment explains the steps. if you have a problem with a specific step ask here again | 18:08 |
| bj0rn2 | erUSUL: yeah I think I got it now, I should try this with live cd only not normal boots. thanks | 18:08 |

| sterz | erUSUL: do i type in /usr/local/netbeans-6.8 to command space in there? | 18:12 |
| drfreema | preload takes some time before it starts working properly. u need to wait some time before it learns what to preload | 18:12 |
| Pianoman13 | so if i undock it will not have any either | 18:13 |
| erUSUL | sterz: if thats the executable; yes | 18:13 |
| drfreema | after that, FF will start up faster | 18:13 |

| owner_ | help, please. I have a quite morden PC(ATX power), Ubuntu 9.10 does not shut down my PC. So, PC stucks with a black screen, I've been waiting for approx 10 minutes, but power did not shut down. Any suggestions ? | 18:57 |
| ActionParsnip | Brokenwall: you connect at cli using iwconfig, not iwlist | 18:57 |

| Gwern-away | system info: http://pastebin.com/m12236801 my problem: I upgraded to karmic a few days ago. ever since, I've noticed that if I plug in a USB device - I tried out my scanner (epson perfection 3170 photo) and my GP2X - my system will completely freeze on the next mouse move/keyboard press. the screen is completely static, no keys work, and I cannot ping my box or ssh in. I left a dmesg|tail running when I turned on my scanner, and there were no USB ... | 18:58 |
| indokain | i don't have options on them | 18:58 |
| Gwern-away | ... related messages or new messages at all. I tried googling but my best keywords are too generic - I didn't find any analogous cases. (the crash occurs after I turn on the USB device). curiously, once I switch off the power and hard cycle, I get a message that /home and some disk-UID can't be mounted, but if I want a minute or so, ubuntu continues booting and everything seems fine. any ideas? | 18:58 |
| brokenwall | ActionParsnip: sorry, i meant iwconfig, which won't connect, | 18:58 |

| joe_ | I experience same problem with kubuntu... | 18:59 |
| owner_ | joe which ? | 18:59 |
| ActionParsnip | Brokenwall: maybe your wifi needs firmware of some sort. Or a newer version of the kernel. Are there bug reports for the wifi chip? | 18:59 |
| blakkheim | joe_: doesn't exactly sound like a high-end system, i'd say that's normal | 18:59 |

| abadabad00 | ActionParsnip - ... look. I don't understand. I have gstreamer installed. Search for it for what? To install it, to reinstall it, to see if I have it? | 19:00 |
| ActionParsnip | Brokenwall: if there are bug reports for the wifi chip then you will need to use ndisgtk until it is resolved. You will need to blacklist the current driver so it doesn't interfere | 19:01 |
| abadabad00 | ActionParsnip - instructions like "look for this" doesn't exactly tell me much (I'm not being ungrateful here, just a bit confused in terms of communication) | 19:01 |

| labancle | js__: on that link for ndiswrapper that I posted it explains how to check whether your card is compatible with ndiswrapper | 20:15 |
| gwildor | Daughain, set it to digital, open firefox with youtube, open sound prefs, and make sure firefox is turned up on the applications tab | 20:15 |
| codebrainz | gdb no it's for capture cards, using the bttv driver | 20:15 |
| ZykoticK9 | js_, what is the output of "uname -r"? | 20:15 |

| scivi | ahh rite well i dont think its possible at all | 20:40 |
| lllll | the The Ubuntu 9.10 alternate installer offers the following partioning option "Guided - use entire disk and set up encrypted LVM" which I assume uses LUKS dm-crypt. Even after selecting this option, later on in the installer (many screens later), I am given another prompt asking whether or not the installer should ecrypt the /home directory. I assume this second encryption option for /home/ uses eCryptfs. Is this correct? | 20:41 |

| Guest95601 | I am dual booting 9.10 and win7. I also have 9.10 installed in VMWare on windows. Is it a bad idea to (if it's even possible) set the VM to read the physical partition that ubuntu is installed to? for vrious reasons I'd like to enter Ubuntu without rebooting for example to avoid installing updates twice. once in VM once on the "real" installation.... | 21:14 |

| Guest95601 | ZykoticK9: If it's possible I'll find it, whay is it not recomended? I wouldn't do it the other way round (windows in VM) but only because of driver problems, activation etc... I've noticed ubuntu is very forgiving when migrating the hard disk to another machine.... | 21:17 |

| cmpsalvestrini | abumaia: It's likely that you will be fine, the ext4 filesystem is supported by both x32 and amd64 in Ubuntu | 21:17 |
| presage | wilhart_: I think yes. As far as I known smplayer is just a graphical front end to mplayer | 21:17 |
| DrDamnit | Slart: Why do you oppose RAID 5? | 21:18 |
| cmpsalvestrini | BusMaster: have you tried looking for the drivers with the driver tool provided in Ubuntu? | 21:18 |
| ZykoticK9 | Guest95265, see http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch09.html#rawdisk and the red Warning message | 21:18 |
| IHATERIIDO | cmpsalvestrini: Thanks, but this has been happening since Ubuntu 8.*. Seems a bit ridiculous at this point if you know what I mean. | 21:18 |
| presage | wilhart_: also you should monitor your cpu usage with htop for example and see the difference between xv and vdpau | 21:18 |

| Roasted | Question - I have a custom theme on my Ubuntu computer, however the text in the top bar is a little dark (where applications, places, system is) If I want to make that font color lighter, how do I do that? Can I do it without customizing the theme features? | 21:19 |
| Slart | DrDamnit: http://www.baarf.com/ has a nice explanation.. it's mostly about the "has to write to several disks" and "rebuilding an array is such an intensive operation that it in itself causes failures" | 21:19 |
| wilhart_ | presage: yep btw, my mplayer says: error opening/initialazing the selected video_out -vo device | 21:19 |
| IHATERIIDO | cmpsalvestrini: I've even disabled Compiz and proprietary drives just to make sure it's not those messing up the works. | 21:19 |
| BusMaster | cmpsalvestrini, yes, and the only drivers listed are for nvidia. Next, I tried getting the sta driver and then the b43-fwcutter and still nothing except nvidia is listed in the hardware drivers | 21:19 |
| outleradam | I have a database in /var/lib which needs to be written to by all users, would it be acceptable to 776 /var/lib/myfolder? | 21:19 |
| raddad | I found it. Use the option /usr/bin/evolution thank you very much :) | 21:19 |
| DrDamnit | Slart: What do you recommend instead? | 21:19 |
| sir_robert007 | hey i need help switching swap partitions in Ubuntu | 21:20 |
| Slart | DrDamnit: normal mirroring.. or mirroring and striping.. should be enough | 21:20 |
| abumaia | are there any advantages to using 64bit over 32bit? disadvantages? | 21:20 |
| IHATERIIDO | DrDamnit: RAID 5 is a complete waste of time for most applications, yes. | 21:20 |
| BusMaster | cmpsalvestrini, can you sent that offer again? i made a mistake accept it | 21:20 |
| jrib | outleradam: no | 21:20 |
| Slart | DrDamnit: oh.. and as always.. raid isn't backup.. shouldn't be used as an alternative to backup either | 21:20 |
| DrDamnit | My issue is: I don't want the server to go down if there is a failure in one of the drives. And I agree: it's not backup. | 21:21 |
| presage | wilhart_: are you sure you have vdpau support enabled in mplayer? I am not sure it is enabled by default in the package provided by the ubuntu repositories. I'm running a different OS so I can't tell | 21:21 |
| ZykoticK9 | abumaia, 64bit can address (use) or memory by default and is faster in some computations (tasks) -- downside, there are some older programs programed to work only on 32bit systems. | 21:21 |
| ZykoticK9 | s/or/more | 21:21 |
| Slart | abumaia: some minor speed improvements.. most noticable when you do some specific stuff.. video encoding and such.. myself I wouldn't be able to tell what I was running without checking with diagnostic tools.. | 21:21 |
| wilhart_ | presage: yea i enabled it just | 21:21 |

| presage | wilhart_: can you play some video file? | 21:22 |
| abumaia | any advantage to using 64bit for BOINC? | 21:22 |
| Slart | abumaia: oh.. and the amount of memory you can use.. that's really the major point.. 64 can handle more than 4GB without using PAE or such | 21:22 |
| ujkanovic | i hate ubuntu | 21:22 |
| wilhart_ | presage: these bugs | 21:22 |
| IHATERIIDO | DrDamnit: Once you realize you can't easily recover information from a RAID 5 or 0 array you learn to start reconsidering. RAID doesn't even guarantee server won't go down. | 21:22 |
| outleradam | jrib basically, this program needs to be located in /usr/bin and it requires a single database to be used and it relies on data from the internet, mythtv and the user. How should I go about setting the permissions? | 21:22 |

| outleradam | jrib also mysql | 21:23 |
| Slart | DrDamnit: you'll have the same safety with a mirrored drive | 21:23 |
| Jordan_U | !best | DrDamnit | 21:23 |
| ubottu | DrDamnit: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 21:23 |
| jrib | outleradam: ok, I'm assuming you just need to be able to write to the file in which case you want executable permissions on the parent directory (you said 776 before which doesn't give everyone executable permissions) | 21:24 |
| V4mpire | ujkanovic, if you provide a weblink to the program you are having problems with someone might be able to help | 21:24 |

| outleradam | jrib: here's the layout... mythicalLibrarian pulls information from the mytv mysql database. It then pulls information from the internet and parses it into a series of text files. It then matches the mythtv recording with the files it's created with aproximatly 99.9% accuracy (fuzzy logic). It then moves and renames the file to ShowName.SxxExx.(title).ext. It outputs a log of what it did and debug information. In the case | 21:29 |
| outleradam | that it failed, the script then creates a doover file. Each of the textual databases are retained until the next update cycle and if the internet is down, they are retained until the tvdb comes back up. Currently I'm using ~/mythicalLibrarian as the working folder. I want to move this to a consolidated folder so that all information downloaded by mythicalLibrarian is available to all users. Obviously mythicalLibrarian nee | 21:29 |
| outleradam | ds proper permissions to modify the original files, but for the temporary files created during operation, it needs a single place on the disk. | 21:29 |

| LogicalDash | darkside0_0, then install cmake the normal way | 21:47 |
| SeungFu | IHATERIIDO: no, i have the domain my-domain.com forvarded to IP of the server | 21:48 |
| === Guest17287 is now known as Gateway` | ||
| PunkaBilly | how do i install a login screen theme? (gnome) | 21:48 |
| LogicalDash | MilitantPotato, what kernel are you using? You might have better luck with the kernel from array.org | 21:48 |
| SeungFu | guntbert: so what do i do to have a mail on some-user@my-domain.com when i have my-domain.com forvarded to IP address of my server | 21:48 |
| ZykoticK9 | PunkaBilly, in Karmic 9.10 it's not easy i'm affraid | 21:48 |

| vlt | Hello. I'm trying to play a video file and a separate audio track with "-audiofile audio.mp3". Everytime I seek forward to another position the audio track starts from the beginning. Any idea how to solve this? | 21:49 |
| IHATERIIDO | SeungFu: There needs to be MX records configured for the domain | 21:49 |
| blakkheim | SeungFu: have you considered mailx? | 21:49 |
| MilitantPotato | LogicalDash: CPU scaling works, would that indicate I'm using the right kernel? | 21:49 |
| ZykoticK9 | darkside0_0, what version of Ubuntu are you using? "lsb_release -a" if you aren't sure. In Karmic i see cmake as version 2.6.4 | 21:51 |
| PunkaBilly | ZykoticK9: why is that? i saw the buttons "install" doesnt work in gnome-art anymore... | 21:51 |
| LogicalDash | MilitantPotato, if you didn't specifically set up this kernel you probably don't have it. | 21:51 |
| SeungFu | IHATERIIDO: since I have no access to DNS records (the domain my-domain.com is forewarded to my IP address) i cannot use mail addreses such as someuser@my-domain.com? | 21:51 |
| ZykoticK9 | PunkaBilly, GDM has changed in Karmic -- there is some manual why to do it i believe (i've never bothered) best of luck | 21:51 |
| SeungFu | mailx will handle reciving mail on my server from foregin mail providers such as gmail ect? | 21:52 |
| PunkaBilly | ZykoticK9: hmm i see thanks... | 21:52 |
| MilitantPotato | LogicalDash: CPU Scaling or..? I'm using the netbook remix, everything aside from the fan speed and hotkeys is working. | 21:52 |
| wilhart__ | ok got dpi change, but now i cant enter kde, i see just a terminal window | 21:52 |
| darkside0_0 | dont work | 21:52 |
| yaaar | howdy | 21:52 |
| darkside0_0 | apt-get install cmake | 21:53 |
| LogicalDash | MilitantPotato, I was just suggesting the alternate kernel because it's specifically made for eeePC. I don't presently use it myself so it might not solve the problem at all. | 21:53 |
| darkside0_0 | but no new version find | 21:53 |
| MilitantPotato | LogicalDash: roger, I'll give it a go | 21:53 |
| LogicalDash | darkside0_0, you need to update first | 21:53 |
| LogicalDash | darkside0_0, sudo apt-get update | 21:53 |
| darkside0_0 | cmake version 2.4-patch 7 | 21:53 |
| darkside0_0 | cmake is already the newest version. | 21:53 |
| darkside0_0 | how update it? | 21:53 |
| LogicalDash | darkside0_0, sudo apt-get update | 21:54 |
| IHATERIIDO | SeungFu: All standard mail clients pole the MX records in order to determine where to send the mail. It doesn't matter where the domain is "forwarded" to. The forward might work for a Web server, but not email. | 21:54 |
| darkside0_0 | I have set option in Software Sources | 21:54 |
| karnivore | does anybody know how i can make a script run on boot but within a terminal? i have put "gnome-terminal -ex (command)" and chucked it in /etc/init.d but it wont work. any ideas? | 21:55 |

| darkside0_0 | and apt-get install cmake | 21:55 |
| darkside0_0 | result: cmake is already the newest version | 21:55 |
| SeungFu | IHATERIIDO: so what do I do if I have no access to the DNS records? | 21:55 |
| ZykoticK9 | darkside0_0, what version of Ubuntu? | 21:55 |

| === ldlework_ is now known as ldlework | ||

| darkside0_0 | 8.04 | 21:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | darkside0_0, ahhh - sorry i don't have a VM of 8.04 so I can't check for you. Best of luck. | 21:57 |
| hawkal | klappi: I believe your best option would be to work backwards and install the cli version then add the packages you need | 21:58 |
| darkside0_0 | ?? | 21:58 |
| wilhart__ | ehm. | 21:58 |
| wilhart__ | installed kde now i want it gone from my system how to uninsatll it | 21:58 |
| darkside0_0 | I cant install cmake? | 21:58 |
| LogicalDash | darkside0_0, looks like your best bet would be to upgrade your Ubuntu | 21:58 |
| darkside0_0 | but | 21:59 |
| darkside0_0 | I need cmake version minimum 2.6 | 21:59 |
| klappi | hawkal: i could deinstall xorg that should come close to minimal? | 21:59 |
| SeungFu | IHATERIIDO: If I dont get access to that records there is no way I can make mail at my domain work? I just wanted to avoid setting up my won DNS server :/ Since I am not going to setup my own DNS server I will not have working mail addresses on my domain | 21:59 |
| darkside0_0 | is not possible? | 21:59 |
| karnivore | does anybody know how i can make a script run on boot but within a terminal? i have put "gnome-terminal -ex (command)" and chucked it in /etc/init.d but it wont work. any ideas? | 21:59 |

| darkside0_0 | to install cmake latest version or > 2.6?? | 22:00 |
| hawkal | klappi: yes or you could just uninstall ubuntu-desktop but I always believed it to be better to start with minimal in the first place | 22:00 |

| MilitantPotato | my ~/ is encrypted, if I reinstall, and keep my password the same, will I have any issues when ubuntu tries to access ~/ ? | 22:10 |
| skiwithpete | ok, I open nautilus click on Network, and I can see another comp (my hp laptop also running 9.10) | 22:11 |
| hyperstream | m_tadeu, is it a proper reboot, or just restarts instantly? (crash) | 22:11 |
| skiwithpete | hey hyperstream | 22:11 |
| m_tadeu | hyperstream: just retarts instantly....no shutdown process | 22:11 |
| darkside0_0 | anyone can help me to install a latest version of cmake? | 22:11 |
| skiwithpete | ok, so I click on the other laptop, in network, and it brings me to /print$ | 22:11 |
| rahduke | Jordan_U: thats not what i want to do, i just want to move my home folder to a seperate drive..... not a new partition. I am running a custom version of ubutnu | 22:12 |
| skiwithpete | a) I haven't setup file sharing on the HP | 22:12 |
| rahduke | and I just installed an SSD | 22:12 |
| skiwithpete | b) I don't know how to turn it off | 22:12 |
| hyperstream | skiwithpete, try this on the laptop: sudo service samba stop | 22:12 |
| raffa | salve | 22:12 |
| hyperstream | skiwithpete, should stop the sharing process | 22:12 |
| Zuz|Home | can anyone tell me if wireless keyboards are usually compatible with ubuntu/kubuntu? | 22:12 |
| skiwithpete | how do I do that by default? | 22:13 |
| hyperstream | m_tadeu, almost sounds like it could be a possible hardware issue, id start with the logs in /var/log | 22:13 |
| raffa | dcc salve | 22:13 |
| Jordan_U | rahduke, Yes you can create a symlink to your home directory on another drive, but you should still read that guide to make sure that you correctly preserve all permissions when copying your home directory | 22:13 |
| hyperstream | skiwithpete, not sure how to make that default. | 22:13 |
| rahduke | Jordan_U: its just a matter of chmod 775 all the folders right? | 22:14 |
| hyperstream | skiwithpete, some keywords that may get a result in a search engine of your choice: ubuntu disable samba networking | 22:14 |
| macman_ | guys im trying to install gbx .. anyone heard of this ? | 22:14 |
| MilitantPotato | my ~/ is encrypted, if I reinstall, and keep my password the same, will I have any issues when ubuntu tries to access ~/ ? | 22:14 |
| rahduke | Jordan_U: so its like chmod -R 775 | 22:14 |
| skiwithpete | ok, how come samba isn't running on this comp by defualt? | 22:14 |
| k0d3g3ar | I must have broken the record for the largest number of reinstalls of Ubuntu onto the same computer in one day. Ends up 1 have one bad RAM SIMM. | 22:14 |
| IHATERIIDO | Zuz|Home: Yes, usually | 22:14 |
| Jordan_U | rahduke, No, not all files should have the same permissions | 22:14 |
| hyperstream | skiwithpete, it isnt configured by default i dont think, where it seems your other laptop has at one stage been semi configured | 22:15 |
| Zuz|Home | I cant get my gigabyte wireless keyboard to work :( | 22:15 |
| raffa | !lista | 22:15 |
| ubottu | This is not a file sharing channel (or network); be sure to read the channel topic. If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot » | 22:15 |
| hyperstream | skiwithpete, perhaps attaching a printer to the second laptop may have triggered it, im unsure :( | 22:15 |
| Jordan_U | rahduke, In fact that can be quite insecure with things like ssh keys in ~/.gnupg | 22:16 |
| hyperstream | skiwithpete, infact i dont see why, sudo apt-get remove samba wouldnt remove the sharing, you could give that a shot | 22:16 |

| Jordan_U | rahduke, Why don't you want to look at the guide I gave you? | 22:17 |
| billiob | because he wants to run sudo rm -fr / | 22:17 |
| hyperstream | rahduke, that is a guide? | 22:17 |
| rahduke | Jordan_U: because that is for a fresh install, and i don't want to resize and creat a new parition.... just want to move my home folder to an existing 1.5 TB drive and i dooo not want to resize it and create a new partition on it | 22:18 |

| billiob | grub2 just sux on debian based systems | 22:19 |
| cmpsalvestrini | looking @ the guide, as I'm interested | 22:19 |
| hyperstream | rahduke, then skip the resizing part? you can just start mounting the partition you want as your home ? | 22:19 |
| gionnico | Hello! | 22:20 |
| gionnico | What do you suggest tangogps or gpsdrive? | 22:20 |
| rahduke | hyperstream: I already have the 1.5 mounting at boot in the proper place... I really dont wanna mess with it. Is it possible to just copy over my home folder and do whatever i need to do? | 22:20 |
| Jordan_U | rahduke, The guide you linked to is also for a separate partition, in both guides the fstab part does not apply. The guide I gave you I know to have good, clear, and up to date instructions for the parts that do apply to you | 22:20 |

| gyrfalcon | alexandernst, cute but not too helpful... I don't like waiting 10+min to boot ubuntu | 22:21 |
| billiob | Jordan_U: on debian unstable, it corrupts lwm | 22:21 |

| faraway | hi .. does someone know a good tutorial how to setup the "smb.conf" so that a windows xp and vista pc can access the smaba share. i tryed everything i found about this but nothing worked (ubuntu server is listed in network but no access is possible from windows machine) | 22:24 |
| gyrfalcon | MilitantPotato, thanks... wukk that really show a delay if it's a issue with GRUB though? | 22:24 |
| blakkheim | faraway: man smb.conf | 22:24 |
| Gnosiz | I'm finding this really strange, devrethman, the last time I used IRC; I used to visit encyclopaedia dramatica channels, and 4 chan, and it's hard to get used to people being "nice" on IRC, lol. | 22:25 |
| devrethman | Gnosiz: Welcome to freenode. It's better here. | 22:25 |
| MilitantPotato | gyrfalcon: if it's a grub issue nah. Have you tried turning off usplash and quiet to see if there's any error messages? | 22:25 |
| Gnosiz | Thanks. | 22:25 |
| gyrfalcon | MilitantPotato, no but I will :) | 22:25 |
| Jordan_U | gyrfalcon, If bootchart doesn't show a delay then you know it's a problem in grub, if it does then you will know what part of init is taking so long. Helps either way :) | 22:26 |
| gyrfalcon | cool thanks to all | 22:26 |
| gyrfalcon | except for the fellow who recommended not shutting down :P | 22:26 |
| protojay | lol | 22:27 |
| Gnosiz | I came on here with a 'problem', but I've forgotten it. | 22:28 |
| Gnosiz | Hmm... | 22:28 |
| Jordan_U | Gnosiz, You need more memory. | 22:29 |

| k0d3g3ar | faraway: whenever I've had problems with Samba like that, its been a firewall issue | 22:30 |
| dasen | Gnosiz: that's also a feature I miss in pidgin | 22:30 |

| blakkheim | Gnosiz: irssi | 22:32 |
| faraway | k0d3g3ar: the thing is the other pc running ubuntu has no problems and also the mac running os 10.6 can connect. and firewall is down for testing | 22:32 |
| Real_Ubot | I have a load like 8.0 6.3 5.0. Isn't that a problem? I mean, several processes have to wait? | 22:33 |
| Gnosiz | I'm only really on Pidgin for the MSN, and it seems easier to use IRC on here. | 22:34 |

| karnivore | does anyone know how to make a script auto run in a new terminal? i want to call a script from another script but it needs to run in its own terminal. gnome-terminal -e -x doesnt do what the manpage suggests it would do | 22:39 |
| `mOOse` | thanks brontosaurusrex | 22:39 |
| dasen | Gnosiz: you could try to ask for that feature at the pidgin mailing lists | 22:40 |
| Gnosiz | OK. | 22:40 |
| Gnosiz | Have any of you guys tried that? | 22:40 |
| dasen | Gnosiz: not me | 22:41 |
| Jordan_U | karnivore, What does it do, and what do you expect it to do? | 22:41 |
| karnivore | Jordan_U: it says "failed to parse argument: missing argument for -e" what i am expecting is it to run the command i have put after the -e in a new terminal window | 22:42 |
| Jordan_U | karnivore, What is the exact command you ran? | 22:42 |
| karnivore | Jordan_U: i have put "gnome-terminal -e x11vnc" | 22:43 |
| Jordan_U | karnivore, That should work ( it does for me with "gnome-terminal -e vim" ). | 22:44 |
| karnivore | jordan_U: it works fine if i run that command from within a terminal | 22:45 |
| karnivore | but if i put that in a script and then run it, i get the error | 22:45 |
| Jordan_U | karnivore, Are you sure you didn't accidentally type something like "gnome-terminal -e -x11vnc" ? | 22:45 |
| Maenz | :)Hi everyone! | 22:45 |
| Jordan_U | karnivore, Can you pastebin your script? | 22:46 |
| karnivore | Jordan_U: lol nope, i removed the -x though, but now it is coming up with "error creating child process for this terminal" | 22:46 |
| karnivore | Jordan_U, the script is one line, which i have given you. unless you want the #! /bin/bash too :P | 22:47 |
| Maenz | Anyone here able to install wow on Karmic 9.10? | 22:47 |
| Jordan_U | karnivore, What happens if you just run "x11vnc" from the terminal directly? | 22:47 |
| karnivore | Jordan_U, it works fine when i run it from terminal directly | 22:47 |
| NewfieRich | hey all, wondering if some one could help. I installed Ubuntu 9.10 from 9.04. With the new Kernal, network manager will not pick up any wireless networks... with the old one it will, but my touch pad won't work. anyone have any idea's how I can debug this situation? | 22:47 |
| Jordan_U | karnivore, Can you please copy and paste the exact line that is currently in your script? | 22:48 |
| NewfieRich | I also had done a fresh install before but no networks were found. tried the network drivers from my cards website and still no luck | 22:48 |
| scivi | try installing restricted drivers | 22:49 |
| karnivore | Jordan_U, gnome-terminal -e x11vnc | 22:49 |
| Real_Ubot | What about a load of 8.0 7.3 6.0? Isn't that VERY high? Processes do have to wait etc? | 22:50 |
| dasen | Gnosiz: I'm afraid sometimes developers don't listen to users as much as they should, IMO, so it might be a long time (if at all) you get feature in for pidgin | 22:50 |
| Jordan_U | karnivore, That's odd, because that exact command works for me | 22:50 |
| Maenz | Any WoW players in here able to help me with the install? :-D | 22:50 |

| karnivore | Jordan_U, one probably key piece of info: x11vnc is an alias on my machine (with all the arguments added automatically). i renamed the bin file to x11vncclean. does gnome-terminal -e not work with aliases? | 22:51 |
| Jordan_U | karnivore, aliases in general don't work with scripts, they are meant only to be used with interactive terminals | 22:52 |
| karnivore | Jordan_U, aha, that explains a hell of a lot! so does that mean i will have to add the alias as a script to /usr/local/bin before it will work in other scripts? | 22:53 |

| piem | hola. where can i find a .img image to put on my usb key? | 22:53 |

| anto9us | piem, you can use unetbootin to make a bootable usb from the iso | 22:54 |
| erichammond | On Jaunty bash prompt, hitting Ctrl-C gives a new bash prompt without output to current line. On Karmic, it displays "^C" then gives new bash prompt. Ideas on how to revert this behavior? readline config? stty config? terminfo config? ...? | 22:55 |
| karnivore | Jordan_U, thanks for your help mate. im gonna go get my scripting cap on and finish this all up. now i understand the context and use of gnome-terminal -e (and it's alias limitations) i think i might survive the night. :) | 22:55 |
| dr-nicto | question : Hi im trying to install openal but it tells me this how would I go about doing this To install OpenAL Soft, use your favorite shell to go into the build/ | 22:55 |
| dr-nicto | directory, and run: | 22:55 |
| dr-nicto | cmake .. | 22:55 |
| Jordan_U | karnivore, It's bad form to change the default function of a command in that way though, it could break other apps that try to use x11vnc | 22:55 |
| piem | anto9us: thanks | 22:56 |
| karnivore | Jordan_U, yeah, i had thought about that. well, seeing as the alias is essentially useless to me (i only built it for scripting!) i will revert the name back on the bin file | 22:56 |
| devrethman | Is there a place I can put commands that I want executed every time gnome starts? | 22:59 |

| devrethman | a bunch of gkrellms | 22:59 |
| zleap | can;t you set that to auto start anyway | 23:00 |
| devrethman | Not that I've figured out how to | 23:00 |
| dr-nicto | Question: how do I install this ? To install OpenAL Soft, first extract it. It will automatically extract itself into the openal-soft-<version>/ directory. Using your favorite shell, go into the build/ directory, and run: | 23:00 |
| dr-nicto | cmake .. | 23:00 |
| lowaiko | hi all, i have a question: as i can see, we will be able to install moblin user interface in lucid, right? | 23:00 |

| devrethman | zleap: Perfect, thanks. | 23:03 |

| zleap | don't forget you can allow multiple instances of gkrellm | 23:04 |
| lowaiko | guys, any knowledge of missing moblin-browser in repos? | 23:04 |
| Jordan_U | cfedde, The processor doesn't matter, It's hard to say about ati vs nvidia, nvidia's proprietary drivers are better than ati's but ati's open source drivers are much better and they have actually given specifications and developer time in support of the open source driver effort | 23:04 |

| IamReck | Yes. | 23:07 |
| MilitantPotato | you didn't ask a specific question | 23:07 |
| ircleuser | oh haha | 23:07 |

| ircleuser | so ive installed ubuntu 7.10 on hd0 | 23:07 |
| ircleuser | and im getting the grub 21 error on stage2_5 | 23:07 |
| ircleuser | 1_5* sorry | 23:07 |
| Jordan_U | ircleuser, Why are you trying to install 7.10 rather than 9.10? | 23:08 |
| ircleuser | well, i have a physical 7.10 disc, as as of tonight, i dont have a blank cd big enough to write the 9 iso on it | 23:08 |
| ircleuser | once i get one ill try it out | 23:09 |
| torasuku | I installed gnome-colors from the repos, but I can't change the menu icon for the menu bar, can anyone help me? | 23:09 |
| Jordan_U | ircleuser, Do you have a flash drive? | 23:09 |
| MilitantPotato | Do you have a 1gb flash drive? | 23:09 |
| ircleuser | but isnt a grub 21 error something with the bootloader not being able to find the disc? | 23:09 |
| ircleuser | yea i have on | 23:09 |
| ircleuser | e | 23:09 |
| MilitantPotato | you can install from that, faster than a CD-Rom too. | 23:09 |

| ircleuser | ok | 23:10 |
| ircleuser | ill try to put it on my flash drive, i cant believe i didnt think of that haha | 23:10 |
| ircleuser | thanks | 23:10 |
| MilitantPotato | ircleuser: hitting escape or F8 during post normally brings up a boot menu | 23:10 |

| kermit | Jordan_U: is that all update manager is going, apt-get update ? | 23:31 |
| ardchoille | kermit: that means there is a conflict somewhere. if it removes transmission and you add it back later, it may restore you to what you havenow | 23:31 |

| mneptok | xfact: and this channel is not associated with Canonical ;) | 23:41 |
| hassan_ | /join##windows | 23:41 |
| blakkheim | heathernicole: what wifi card is it? | 23:41 |
| Lee_Ubun | blakkheim: Is there any way to change it? | 23:41 |
| blakkheim | Lee_Ubun: change what? | 23:41 |
| heathernicole | ×.× No idea :Ð | 23:41 |
| arleslie | hassan_: you need to have a space between /join and ##windows. | 23:42 |
| === greegrzggeggzg13 is now known as aptget | ||
| psycho_oreos | heathernicole, pastebin your lspci -nnk output | 23:42 |
| hassan_ | where i have to right dis? | 23:42 |
| Lee_Ubun | blakkheim: Yea your right, that sux | 23:42 |
| xfact | mneptok, Really, you gotta be kidding...impossible this channel is associated with Ubuntu directly! | 23:42 |
| heathernicole | x.xwhat? | 23:42 |
| heathernicole | what* | 23:42 |
| JonathanEllis | I am trying to extract audio from a dvd using VLC. I cant seem to get a playable file. Can anyone help please? | 23:42 |
| psycho_oreos | heathernicole, open up terminal, type in "lspci -nnk", copy and paste the output into a website called pastebin.com | 23:42 |
| Lee_Ubun | blakkheim: So if my CPU was higher then it will probably play smoother? | 23:43 |
| xfact | hassan_, Write /join <space> ##Windows | 23:43 |
| blakkheim | Lee_Ubun: yes | 23:43 |
| ardchoille | xfact: the official ubuntu channels are managed by the ubuntu IRC council, which is an elected body, iirc | 23:43 |
| heathernicole | psychò_óreos: I'd have to restart my comp, and get on ubuntu, which means I have to quit from here, which means i lost help | 23:43 |
| mneptok | xfact: this channel is associated with the Ubuntu project. this channek has no association with the for-profit company associated with the project. | 23:43 |
| psycho_oreos | heathernicole, you don't have network cable handy? | 23:43 |
| heathernicole | nope | 23:43 |
| JonathanEllis | heathernicole: Can you borrow another computer like a laptop so you can talk on one while fixing the other? | 23:44 |
| psycho_oreos | heathernicole, that could make the whole process quite difficult fyi | 23:44 |
| arleslie | heathernicole: do you know what wireless card your laptop uses? | 23:44 |
| heathernicole | arleslie: no I don't. | 23:44 |
| xfact | mneptok, anyway I just wanted to say this channel has relation with Ubuntu (non-profit, obviously cause it's open source) but I do not think # windows has any relation with Bill gates | 23:44 |
| gyrfalcon | Could someone inturpret this bootchart? http://i.imgur.com/mMnFn.png <--doesn't 9.10 get rid of usplash? | 23:44 |
| JonathanEllis | heathernicole: Or can you use a webconnected phone to chat on? | 23:45 |
| arleslie | heathernicole: ok, well then how about the model # or serial #. | 23:45 |
| Lee_Ubun | With a 10yr old computer is it a problem to install the latest distro of ubuntu? | 23:45 |
| blakkheim | Lee_Ubun: might be slow, but it should work | 23:45 |
| Amqui | join #vlc-fr | 23:45 |
| ejv | Lee_Ubun: try xubuntu, xfce has a lighter footprint than gnome | 23:45 |
| heathernicole | arleslie: I'm using the new Dell Inspiron laptop and my wireless card is built in | 23:45 |
| sinbox | Lee_Ubun, go for a minimal install and use lxde | 23:45 |
| psycho_oreos | heathernicole, would there happen to be FCC ID: XXXXXXXX label printed anywhere on the device itself? | 23:46 |
| Lee_Ubun | sinbox: whats lxde? | 23:46 |
| JonathanEllis | Lee_Ubun: It might or might not work. I have two 7 year old Dell machines and the latest version of ubuntu wont run on them. Try running the livecd and if that works then chances are the full install will too. My computers will only run Ubuntu 8.04 | 23:46 |
| gyrfalcon | jonathanellis, models? | 23:46 |
| Jordan_U | gyrfalcon, No, 9.04 uses xsplash for most of the boot process but still needs usplash, 10.04 will replace both usplash and xsplash with plymouth | 23:46 |
| heathernicole | Lemme look | 23:47 |
| cmpsalvestrini | I may be lucky, Ubuntu 9.04 runs on a Pentium 3 | 23:47 |
| Jordan_U | gyrfalcon, s/9.04/9.10/ | 23:47 |
| JonathanEllis | heathernicole: You can open up the back of the laptop and find the wifi card | 23:47 |
| gyrfalcon | Jordan_U, do you have an idea why my boot keeps hanging up from that image? | 23:47 |
| JonathanEllis | gyrfalcon: Dell Latitude C610 and Dell Dimension 2400. Neither will run Karmic | 23:47 |
| xfact | JonathanEllis, Can they run Xubuntu latest version? | 23:47 |
| Amqui | good evening | 23:47 |
| sinbox | Light X Destop Environment Lee_Ubun have a read of this guide: http://wiki.dennyhalim.com/ubuntu-minimal-desktop | 23:47 |
| heathernicole | T_T | 23:48 |
| Lee_Ubun | JonathanEllis: Do you have frame issues on certain websites with the older machines? | 23:48 |
| JonathanEllis | The Dimension wont run karmic at all. The Latitude runs it badly | 23:48 |
| Amqui | audio doesn't work anymore on VLC with mms flux, somebody has an idea why % | 23:48 |
| oso3000 | i installed apache2 and php5 at home... what do i have to configure, in order to access the server from the internet? | 23:48 |
| Amqui | ? | 23:48 |
| heathernicole | Could I get one person helping me in pvt? T_T | 23:48 |
| Gnosiz | Hmm... kinda dumb question; does anyone know where to get really nice, neat and slick themes for Ubuntu | 23:48 |
| JonathanEllis | They both work on HArdy Heron | 23:48 |
| blakkheim | !pm | heathernicole | 23:48 |
| ubottu | heathernicole: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can help you, benefit from your questions and answers, and ensure that you're not getting bad advice. Please note that some people find it rude to be sent a PM without being asked for permission to do so first. | 23:48 |
| heathernicole | Gnosiz: youtube Compiz | 23:48 |
| Gnosiz | Something glossy works. | 23:48 |
| sinbox | but I run the LTS version Lee_Ubun 8.04 not 9.10, they work fine | 23:48 |
| Jordan_U | gyrfalcon, Just so you know, your UUID is just a random number, no need to blur it out. | 23:48 |
| cmpsalvestrini | I think art.gnome.org has themes Gnosiz | 23:48 |
| mattwoodyard | join #lift | 23:48 |
| Gnosiz | Thanks.. | 23:49 |
| gyrfalcon | Jordan_U, I guess I'm just a bit paranoid. :P | 23:49 |
| oso3000 | i installed apache2 and php5 at home... what do i have to configure, in order to access my home server from the internet ? | 23:49 |
| Gnosiz | Sorry, do GNOME themes work with Ubuntu? | 23:49 |
| IdleOne | gyrfalcon: nothing wrong with being careful :) | 23:49 |
| Jordan_U | gyrfalcon, No problem with that :) | 23:49 |
| Gnosiz | I'm BRAND new. | 23:49 |
| JonathanEllis | Lee_Ubun: Dont know what you mean about frame issues on "certain" websites | 23:49 |
| Lee_Ubun | JonathanEllis: If your watching a video? | 23:50 |
| heathernicole | ×.× | 23:50 |
| JonathanEllis | Gnosiz: Yes Gnome themes should work with Ubuntu. Ubuntu uses the Gnome Desktop. Kubuntu is the version with the KDE Desktop | 23:50 |
| Jordan_U | gyrfalcon, It does seem that usplash is using much more CPU than it should, can you try bootchart but remove the "splash" from the kernel parameters in grub? ( press "e" at the grub menu to edit the entry then ctrl+x to execute it ) | 23:51 |
| JonathanEllis | Lee_Ubun: Youtube can be a bit jumpy as the machines don't keep up well | 23:51 |
| gyrfalcon | Jordan_U, so I do a splash=0 or something like that? | 23:51 |
| bithash | hey guys, I am trying to dual boot ubuntu 9.10 with freebsd | 23:51 |
| JonathanEllis | The problem my Dimension has is the graphics will not work with anything newer than Ubuntu 8.04 so that's where I stay | 23:51 |
| Jordan_U | gyrfalcon, No, just remove the word splash entirely | 23:51 |
| bithash | ubuntu setup like a breeze and i was able to install freebsd with the don't touch the mbr option during install | 23:52 |
| Lee_Ubun | JonathanEllis: I experience unexpected logouts sometimes on this machine, it started to happen when I installed 9.10 it didn't do it for 9.04 | 23:52 |
| Gnosiz | Does anyone use a 'dock' similar to that of Mac in Ubuntu? | 23:52 |
| bithash | however i do not get a grub prompt to choose freebsd if I need to | 23:52 |
| Amqui | audio doesn't work anymore on VLC with mms flux, somebody has an idea why, the video still works normally ? | 23:52 |
| Lee_Ubun | JonathanEllis: Maybe I should downgrade | 23:52 |
| bithash | can someone help me on what I should modify? | 23:52 |
| oso3000 | i installed apache2 and php5 at home... what do i have to configure, in order to access my home server from the internet ? | 23:52 |
| outleradam | so I've got a web server running on my computer and I want to link to a file at another part of the computer, how would I identify the file to the user? | 23:53 |
| Jordan_U | Lee_Ubun, Do they happen when you are using the computer or when it's idle? | 23:53 |
| outleradam | how can you link to a file? | 23:53 |
| oso3000 | outleradam, you can't | 23:53 |
| naerey | http://www.notionink.in/images/feature/adamimg.png << what OS would this be? | 23:53 |
| Craig_Dem | Gnosiz: I use avant-window-navigator, I like that as a dock. | 23:53 |
| oso3000 | outleradam, you have to copy the file to the publish folder of your server | 23:53 |
| JonathanEllis | Lee_Ubun: I NEVER upgrade. I always do a clean install to a fresh partition, leaving the old working OS intact on its own partition. Then if the new install is broken I just have to select the old one in Grub when the computer boots | 23:53 |
| outleradam | oso: is there a way to have a secure login, like SSH or SFTP? | 23:53 |
| oso3000 | outleradam, but that's a different issue... i thought you meant a webserver | 23:54 |
| julio | hi there yall | 23:54 |
| Lee_Ubun | Jordan_U: It seems to happen when i'm on websites | 23:54 |
| julio | could someone lend a hand on setting up a vpn? | 23:54 |
| outleradam | yeah, I've got an apache server feeding RSS's to my network, now I need to have a link of some sort so that the files can be accessed. | 23:54 |
| wilhart_ | heya i'm getting "An error occured while accessing '320GB' the system responded: org.freedesktop.Hal:Device.Volume.PermissionDenied: Refusing to mount device /dev/sdb1 for uid=1000 | 23:54 |
| Lee_Ubun | Jordan_U: Never when its idle | 23:54 |
| JonathanEllis | I would be grateful for help with VLC. I am trying to extract audio from a DVD and having problems. Cant generate a playable file. I have tried various settings and formats. Dont want to flood the channel with all the details | 23:55 |
| Lee_Ubun | JonathanEllis: Do you use KarmicKola on a new PC | 23:55 |
| ibboT | can someone point me to some documentation on how to install lucid on a separate partition and making it a boot option in my current grub? | 23:55 |
| outleradam | oso: any way to get the file link from the web server to the other computer? | 23:55 |
| Craig_Dem | JonathanEllis: Look at handbrake | 23:55 |
| oso3000 | JonathanEllis, vlc is not a dvd ripper | 23:55 |
| Craig_Dem | An excellent converter of media files. | 23:55 |
| oso3000 | outleradam, you have to publish the file in the webserver | 23:56 |
| JonathanEllis | Lee_Ubun: No cos I dont have a new PC | 23:56 |
| Lee_Ubun | Oh | 23:56 |
| gyrfalcon | Jordan_U, when I get rid of splash and quite it boots perfectly in less than a minute... should I open a bug report on usplash or something? | 23:56 |
| outleradam | oso: you said that's different. Can't I somehow put a SSH or SFTP link in there? | 23:56 |
| oso3000 | outleradam, i think it would be best for you to use a file sharing service | 23:56 |
| JonathanEllis | Craig_Dem: I was using the transcode options in the Stream/Save bit of VLC. Guess I will try handbrake then | 23:57 |
| wilhart_ | anyone? | 23:57 |
| Jordan_U | gyrfalcon, Yes, but to be honest unless it's an easy fix it will probably never be fixed, since usplash is being replaced in 10.04. | 23:57 |
| klappi | wish me like im updating my broken laptop vom 9.04 to 9.10 ^^ | 23:57 |
| Gnosiz | Does anybody know when a new version of Ubuntu will be out? | 23:57 |
| jrib | Gnosiz: april | 23:57 |
| arleslie | wilhart_: Whats the file system on that disk? | 23:57 |
| Gnosiz | Will it be completely different? | 23:57 |
| JonathanEllis | Gnosiz: They are released twice a year in April and October | 23:57 |
| jrib | Gnosiz: no, not completely different... | 23:57 |
| outleradam | oso: this is a final step to basically publish the fact that the file is available. I would like to find ANY way to put in a link to the file, like anything at all. | 23:57 |
| klappi | s/like/luck | 23:57 |
| Gnosiz | Why do they release them so frequently? | 23:57 |
| jrib | Gnosiz: new software | 23:58 |
| wilhart_ | arleslie: mmmm ntfs | 23:58 |
| JonathanEllis | !releases | 23:58 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 18 months to 5 years. More info at http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases | 23:58 |
| Lee_Ubun | Any real disadvantages with using an older version like 8.01 | 23:58 |
| gyrfalcon | Jordan_U, seems like they're racing towards bleeding edge/unstability... I've had more issues just installing 9.10 than I have with any other release. | 23:58 |
| Lee_Ubun | 8.04 | 23:58 |
| jrib | Lee_Ubun: well 8.01 doesn't exist, so that's a disadvantage | 23:58 |
| arleslie | !ntfs : wilhart_ | 23:58 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 23:58 |
| klappi | Lee_Ubun: 8.04 is lts so its fine | 23:58 |
| arleslie | !ntfs: wilhart_ | 23:58 |
| corey | is it save to remove /usr/share/doc? | 23:58 |
| jrib | Lee_Ubun: you should either use latest stable release or latest LTS release | 23:59 |
| Jordan_U | gyrfalcon, 10.04 should be more stable since it's an LTS release | 23:59 |
| corey | safe* | 23:59 |
| JonathanEllis | Lee_Ubun: Some newer software is not on 8.04 but it works fine. | 23:59 |
| PsychoMari0 | is it possible to assign a virtual network device, like eth0:1 and ip address to a chroot environment? | 23:59 |
| arleslie | !ntfs | wilhart_ | 23:59 |
| ubottu | wilhart_: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE | 23:59 |
| Gnosiz | I like some of the themes one here: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/nice-themes-for-ubuntu-9-10-karmic-users.html - but the Icons in the Ubuntu Software Centre look rubbish. | 23:59 |
| Gnosiz | Which is a real turn-off. | 23:59 |
| blakkheim | !ot | Gnosiz | 23:59 |
| ubottu | Gnosiz: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 23:59 |
