| Craig_Dem | unperson: The others are slightly self-explanitory, embedded systems are things like washing machines, or a computer designed for a specific purpose. Like a ticket machine. | 00:00 |
| Craig_Dem | Moblin is for a type of mobile iirc. | 00:00 |
| unperson | Craig_Dem, Presumably they're thinking of cell phones. | 00:01 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, ? | 00:01 |
| sum1 | unperson never used mobile things.. sorry -__- i'm talking about notebook and desktop versions | 00:01 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: still here, searching your monitor | 00:01 |
| unperson | Craig_Dem, Xubuntu is definitely attractive. If only they'd based UNR on it. | 00:01 |
| Craig_Dem | Yeah | 00:02 |
| teage | anyone know how to burn a .toc file? I just dont understand, brasero made it, but cant burn it. | 00:02 |
| Craig_Dem | You can install xubuntu on Ubuntu. | 00:02 |
| Jordan_U | marcuy, /etc/default/grub | 00:02 |

| gp5st | or a pdf? | 00:03 |
| omar | and the hard drive asks for a password when it boots | 00:03 |
| Craig_Dem | I use Ubuntu, Linux Mint and XUbuntu personally. | 00:03 |
| rahduke | can anyone tell me how to get Ubuntu to stop asking for my keyring password when i log in? Ever since I installed Docky everytime i boot it asks me for my keyring password.... I've installed Seahorse and extra plugins but there doesnt seem to be an option. PLease someone point me in the right direction | 00:03 |
| unperson | Craig_Dem, Right. I've actually used it before, just not on this netbook. The question is always whether the desktop apps will deal well with the small screen. In this case 800x480 | 00:03 |
| marcuy | Jordan_U, thanks, i'm glad to see that grub has changed their config to etc ;) | 00:03 |
| Craig_Dem | I do not know. | 00:04 |
| ZykoticK9 | rahduke, do you have auto-login turned on? | 00:04 |
| Jordan_U | marcuy, np :) | 00:04 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: is it a widescreen ? | 00:04 |
| rahduke | ZykoticK9: I do, just installed an SSD and wanted to check how fast my boot is.... | 00:04 |
| mix22891 | i've download 1file -smbscanmount.kmdr . how do i use it? | 00:04 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: I try to find a suitable scren section for xorg.conf | 00:04 |

| CHRISJERICH-90b2 | i am letaris | 00:05 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, yes it i s 16:9.. with 1920x1080 resolution | 00:05 |
| ZykoticK9 | rahduke, then you are in a bit of a catch-22 -- if you turn autologin off - then it won't as for the keyring password. Basically for security you have to type your password in once, either at login or for keyring. | 00:05 |
| MichRT | I have an iMac G3 (400 mhz, 512 mb RAM, ATI Range PRO 8mb AGP 2x) and am starting Xubuntu 6.06 PowerPC Alternate install CD. Any suggestions? | 00:06 |
| vahe | I haven't done too much web browsing in ubuntu (just switched to it for my day to day stuff). Is flash as bad as it is on OSX in terms of performance? | 00:06 |
| rahduke | ZykoticK9: i've built 3 mini htpcs recently running Karmic... all of them have autologin enabled.... none of them ask for a keyring password | 00:06 |
| sysdoc | Anyone know how to get Pulse to work with an M Audio 1010LT in Karmic? | 00:06 |
| Jordan_U | MichRT, Why 6.06? That's ancient. | 00:06 |
| rahduke | ZykoticK9: none of them are running docky tho | 00:06 |
| Lint01 | 6.06 is no longer supported | 00:06 |
| === CHRISJERICH-90b2 is now known as Floodbot5 | ||
| ZykoticK9 | rahduke, perhaps nothing is saved in those keyrings? if you want to test just turn auto-login off and see what happens. Good luck man. | 00:07 |
| unperson | vahe, Yes. Probably worse. | 00:07 |

| rahduke | ZykoticK9: so your saying there is no way program or app that will allow me to store the keyring password and automatically use it when called on ? | 00:07 |

| shashank | I keep on getting this warning whenever I try to print to pdf:Printer 'PDF':'cups-insecure-filter'. | 00:07 |
| sport | Does anyone have a cron script that monitors software RAID 1 they can share? | 00:08 |
| unperson | vahe, There is an open source implementation of flash called gnash, IIRC. Can't say how that stacks up. | 00:08 |
| === Guest66881 is now known as Floodbot6 | ||
| Jordan_U | rahduke, Not unless you want the passwords stored in plain text | 00:08 |
| vahe | unperson, thanks | 00:08 |
| rahduke | Jordan_U: I really don't care.... i'm not to worried about security | 00:08 |
| === Floodbot6 is now known as Guest23564 | ||
| MichRT | Jordan_U any newer and the system won't run right. I tried Ubuntu 8.04, and the system ran slow. 400mhz can't do much | 00:09 |
| ZykoticK9 | rahduke, it makes perfect sense to me that Ubuntu does this -- if someone sits at your computer do you really want them to have access to all your personal stuff? | 00:09 |
| unperson | vahe, Note that the gnash is sort of reverse engineered and only does a subset of what the adobe flash player does. | 00:09 |
| Jordan_U | MichRT, Try Xubuntu or lubuntu, running an obsolete version is not the way to go | 00:09 |
| BluesKaj | Quintin, I hope your question is rhetorical, because there's no answer to that.At least one that makes sense to me. | 00:09 |
| rahduke | ZykoticK9: well this is a personal computer on my home network, not to worried about someone sitting down and stealing stuff | 00:09 |
| Quintin | BluesKaj: of course it's not rhetorical | 00:09 |
| Jordan_U | rahduke, What are you using the keyring for? | 00:10 |
| vahe | gotcha, i'll look into it | 00:10 |
| BluesKaj | Quintin, go ask the devs ...alsa works perfectly fine without PA. | 00:10 |
| rahduke | Jordan_U: I dont even want to use keyring, since i installed Docky and set autologin, Ubuntu asks for my keyring password everytime it starts. I have no idea why it even asks for keyring password | 00:10 |
| Quintin | Yea. So question is if it breaks so much and causes so much user confusion and frustration, why is it shipping as default | 00:11 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: http://pastebin.com/m7b3dcec0 | 00:11 |
| ZykoticK9 | Quintin, if you check you'll find Pulse is default for all distros using Gnome (it's more a Gnome thing then an Ubuntu thing) | 00:11 |

| ZykoticK9 | marsje, as a work-around you could use Samba on your Ubuntu to share to you WinXP guest | 00:18 |
| Dr_Willis | marsje: its worked around here for me in the past. ZykoticK9 is right also. You can use the normal samba/share method. Or use winscp/ssh | 00:19 |

| fsplinter | Dr_Willis: thanks for at least responding, I'm completely stumped, but the hardware is good. I used both drives at work a little earlier. Only possiblility is a bad usb controller | 00:27 |

| brock | Craig_Dem: do i need to uninstall AWN before i can install the updated version, i just updated my repositories? | 00:37 |
| Dr_Willis | autoclesis: if you dont want to download the disks. and want the books order that package. Thers proberly cheaper places to get them | 00:38 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: (trml) gksudo synaptic | 00:38 |

| Gaming4JC | hey all, I got a problem according to #winehq - "your 32-bit libgl is broken" any idea how I can fix it? I'm using proprietary ATI 9.12 drivers. *very confused*... :D | 00:38 |
| Gaming4JC | Making it so all my games are useless until this is fixed. :P | 00:38 |
| Dr_Willis | autoclesis: if you really wants the disks and dont want to download/burn - i imagine most bookstores got Linux Magazines with the disks | 00:38 |
| autoclesis | okay | 00:38 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, go on | 00:38 |
| brock | Craig_Dem: so i just search for AWN in synaptic and click install ? | 00:38 |
| autoclesis | i can't download until i set up . it's a catch 22 | 00:39 |

| redlance | Dr_Willis, I've got Ubuntu Netbook Remix on mine... | 00:42 |
| juicedude10 | helllo | 00:42 |
| Dr_Willis | DanSBLUG___: If you can use 64bit - then use 64bit.. :) | 00:42 |
| juicedude10 | can soemone help me?! | 00:43 |
| Dr_Willis | redlance: thats what i got on my AAO. - runs very well for me. | 00:43 |
| Jordan_U | DanSBLUG___, I would say 64 bit, though that could give you a harder time with certain proprietary stuffs like flash. | 00:43 |
| hitek88 | Jordan_U actually that doesnt start it | 00:43 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: just to make you see what I'm up to : http://tiny.cc/tAphw | 00:43 |
| redlance | Dr_Willis, Does your's have the SSD? | 00:43 |
| DanSBLUG___ | Dr_Willis: It will run faster? | 00:43 |
| Dr_Willis | redlance: No - i got the HD version | 00:43 |
| Jordan_U | hitek88, What does it do? Do you see an error? | 00:43 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, kk :) | 00:44 |
| hitek88 | Jordan_U it says "gdm start/running, process 191666" | 00:44 |
| DanSBLUG___ | Ohh if I will have problems with proprietary stuff....no way ...I will get 32 bit then | 00:44 |
| Dr_Willis | DanSBLUG___: it should be faster for many tasks | 00:44 |
| redlance | Dr_Willis, And 1 gig ram? | 00:44 |
| Dr_Willis | DanSBLUG___: ive not had any 32bit/64bit issues in ages | 00:44 |
| Dr_Willis | redlance: I think i got 1gb ram. | 00:44 |
| DanSBLUG___ | Jordan scared me:P | 00:44 |
| hitek88 | Jordan_U also, I am connected through Putty | 00:45 |
| DanSBLUG___ | Is your flash and everything working fine? | 00:45 |
| Dr_Willis | Ive not had flash issues in 64bit in ages. | 00:45 |
| Jordan_U | hitek88, putty is inherently text only | 00:45 |
| redlance | Dr_Willis, Mine seems to do alot of swapping...guess I'll just have to get 2 gig... | 00:45 |
| hitek88 | Jordan_U I believe so, but was not sure | 00:45 |
| Dr_Willis | ive seen very few reasons to not use 64bit | 00:45 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: so in synaptic uninstall each paket conatining fglrx in the name, 4 pakets so | 00:45 |
| hitek88 | Jordan_U any suggestions on what I might be able to connect with? | 00:45 |
| Dr_Willis | redlance: cant say that ive noticed it swapping. I tend to watch videos mainly on mine and some Gimp work | 00:45 |
| DanSBLUG___ | But things can happen dependint on the platform? | 00:45 |
| Jordan_U | hitek88, If you want to run GUI programs remotely you will have to setup vnc or install an X server for windows. | 00:46 |
| wolter | hi, can i get help on torifying a link? | 00:46 |
| hitek88 | Jordan_U vnc it is then, thanks | 00:46 |

| corrupt91 | autoclesis: you could just dualboot win7 and have kde and gnome as desktop options for ubuntu and it'd be similar | 00:48 |
| autoclesis | and keep win 7 offline while using kubuntu online? | 00:48 |
| autoclesis | thanks das, corrupt | 00:48 |
| autoclesis | i'm the last person in the world using dialup and linspire i bet. | 00:49 |

| nixpet | sorry mates i figured it out i had a nix spazam | 00:49 |

| nyqvist | DasEi, done. | 00:49 |
| DasEi | autoclesis: might be of interest: check virtualbox | 00:49 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: running 32 or 64 bit ? | 00:50 |
| autoclesis | why do people just wipe win 7 then ? | 00:50 |
| PsychoMari0 | MilitantPotato: does it say anything in /var/log/messages or /var/log/dmesg when you re-enable it? | 00:50 |
| autoclesis | just have no use for it ? | 00:50 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, 32bit. | 00:50 |

However, if i understand correctly i need a separate swap partition if i want to be able to hibernate in ubuntu. Does anyone have any idea what i can do? thanks! | 00:53 |
| PsychoMari0 | MilitantPotato: you could use 'tail /var/log/messages' before and after | 00:53 |

| nyqvist | DasEi, done. | 00:54 |
| MilitantPotato | PsychoMari0: nothing in either log file | 00:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Dempf: one primary would need to become a 'extended' partiion and hold 1 or more logical partions if you need more partions then 4 | 00:55 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: sudo dpkg -i linux-image-2.6.32-020632rc8-generic_2.6.32-020632rc8_amd64.deb | 00:55 |
| PsychoMari0 | MilitantPotato: they are blank, or just nothing of relevance? | 00:55 |
| MilitantPotato | Nothing changes when I toggle wifi | 00:55 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, i got error.. let me paste to u | 00:55 |
| Dempf | Dr_Willis: Can I use gparted to do that? that's the program i've been using to set up the partitions | 00:56 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, http://paste.ubuntu.com/378032/ | 00:56 |

| Dr_Willis | Dempf: yes. to install ubuntu you could just leave part of the HD unallocated and let the installer partion it. Unless you want to set up a seperate /home or other special cases | 00:56 |
| autoclesis | !kde | 00:56 |

| PsychoMari0 | MilitantPotato: what is the method the button uses to disable it? does it have nothing to do with the OS, or does it go through some kind of OS driver? | 00:57 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: ahh, my fault, you said 32 bit, I'm too used to 64 | 00:57 |
| EdwardA | Hello. | 00:57 |

| Nitsuga | #ubuntu+1 | 00:58 |
| Nitsuga | ups | 00:58 |
| Dempf | Dr_Willis: the problem is that I already have ubuntu installed - would I have to reinstall in order to create the 'extended' partition? | 00:58 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: sudo rm *deb | 00:58 |
| praetor | that's wierd cuz it is just flash | 00:58 |
| PsychoMari0 | MilitantPotato: have you tried killing network manager and restartig | 00:58 |
| MilitantPotato | PsychoMari0: physically turns off the wifi. Let me boot with wifi enabled, and see what the logs say when I disable/re-enable.. | 00:58 |

| hyperstream | Dr_Willis, i got the pulseaudio sorted, would you like me to PM you how i went about it ? (actually 2 commands) incase you would like to note it down? | 00:59 |
| EdwardA | It unpacks, and gives me the error; "Could not retrieve the required installation files", thus ceasing the install. What has gone awry? | 00:59 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: wget http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.32-rc8/linux-headers-2.6.32-020632rc8-generic_2.6.32-020632rc8_i386.deb | 00:59 |
| Dr_Willis | hyperstream: sure. | 00:59 |
| PsychoMari0 | EdwardA: where abouts in the install? | 00:59 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: sudo dpkg -i linux-image* | 01:00 |
| hitek88 | Jordan_U not sure why I am having trouble accessing vnc4server on the ubuntu server. I installed vnc4server, ran it with the correct parameters, set a password for it, but get an error xauth: error in locking authority file /home/*/.Xauthority | 01:00 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: sudo dpkg -i liux-headers* | 01:00 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: sudo dpkg -i linux-headers* ,typo above | 01:00 |

| === xstyr is now known as DaveXi | ||
| Dempf | Dr_Willis: the problem is that I don't have a separate swap partition set up and I already have 4 partitions on my drive. I didn't realize when I was installing that Ubuntu hibernate needs a separate swap partition, so I assumed that I could just make the swap reside on the Ubuntu partition | 01:00 |
| === administrador__ is now known as meraz | ||
| EdwardA | PsychoMari0: After Wubi gets done unpacking the files to the drive I'm trying to install NBR on. | 01:00 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, hm.. something is wrong with my internet.. it's laggy.. hold on | 01:01 |
| PsychoMari0 | EdwardA: sorry i have no experience with wubi, i cant help you | 01:01 |
| Dr_Willis | Dempf: Ifyou want to hibernate - yep. You do need a swap partition. of like 2x your ram size. I never use hibernate. Depending on you rpartion layout. You could just move/delet whatever #4 is and remake it as a extended with 2 Logicals, and put swap there and whatever other partion #4 is now | 01:01 |
| amartinenco | hello | 01:02 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: bokmark http://tiny.cc/tAphw for future reference | 01:02 |
| cjae | Hi, I have ubuntu set up on my sisters laptop, I am not sure what to search in google on how to force a filesystem check when needed she just cancels it and then u can guess the rest | 01:02 |
| autoclesis | does the CD really take 10 weeks to arrive | 01:03 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, look >>> http://paste.ubuntu.com/378039/ | 01:03 |
| DasEi | cjae: man tunefs, or use a live cd and ceckk manually | 01:03 |
| PsychoMari0 | cjae: look at fsck | 01:03 |
| Nitsuga | cjae, NOT CHECKING THE FS DOESN'T HARM THE COMPUTER | 01:03 |
| seanbrystone | autoclesis, it took longer than that for me to get it | 01:03 |
| Eremite | Does anyone else have problems with Sleep/Hibernate? After Karmic was installed, the computer will never wake from sleep or hibernation. I have to hard restart every time because I only get a blnak black screen when I try to resume. This is making Karmic unusable. Anyone know how to fix this? | 01:03 |
| autoclesis | thanks sean | 01:03 |
| Nitsuga | cjae,and it takes less than a minute | 01:03 |
| PsychoMari0 | Nitsuga: depends on your drive size | 01:04 |
| ayam_jago | nyqvist : maybe you need to set the software source from main server | 01:04 |
| Nitsuga | PsychoMari0, I have a 2TB hard drive and it takes 40 seconds | 01:04 |
| PsychoMari0 | Nitsuga: fast processor? | 01:04 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: the image installed with no errors ? | 01:04 |
| ayam_jago | i need help with this msg: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d12194b0b | 01:04 |
| Dempf | Dr_Willis: I already have 120gb of data transferred onto that partition so deleting it would be a pain. I think it would be easiest just to delete the ubuntu partition and then reinstall it (I only just installed ubuntu a couple days ago). | 01:04 |
| cjae | Nitsuga: it does harm the computer if her fried use it and do thing like hard off and such | 01:04 |
| Nitsuga | Psychoholic, yes, a core2quad, but I don't think it's the processor | 01:04 |
| Nitsuga | it is the ext4 filesystem | 01:05 |
| cjae | friends* | 01:05 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, as i saw, yes.. let me recheck | 01:05 |
| MilitantPotato | PsychoMari0: No log messages when I disable/enable with wifi enabled at boot, once it's enabled again nm-applet shows device not ready | 01:05 |
| PsychoMari0 | Nitsuga: my 320gb ext4 takes about 2 minutes | 01:05 |
| PsychoMari0 | MilitantPotato: what does iwconfig show? | 01:06 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, yep.. no errors. | 01:06 |
| cjae | DasEi: that is way over her head, I just need a way to not be able to boot until fsck is done | 01:06 |
| Nitsuga | Psychoholic, anyway that isn't much time | 01:06 |
| teckan | anyone here using twinkle? i wonder what codecs i am supposed to have installed to make proper calls to landlines. i have an account in voipbuster (with money) and I wanted to use it. however, although sip:echo@proxy01.sipphone.com returns great test results, i am not able to make calls to landlines without annoying sound distortion or no sound at all. | 01:06 |
| PsychoMari0 | Nitsuga: gives me time to get a drink :P | 01:06 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: as they are not in apt's repos, think will fail, what tells : sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) | 01:07 |
| Dr_Willis | Dempf: depends on your hd layout. havign a extended/logicals btweek 2 primaries can confuse some programs | 01:07 |
| PsychoMari0 | whats the difference between $(command) and `command`? | 01:07 |
| autoclesis | if you buy the CD it comes faster than 10 weeks? | 01:07 |
| Dr_Willis | PsychoMari0: oneis easier to read | 01:07 |
| Dempf | Dr_willis: hmm, if I do that would ubuntu consider the swap partition as a separate partition though? If I have an 'extended' partition with an ubuntu partition and a swap partition? | 01:07 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, http://paste.ubuntu.com/378042/ | 01:08 |
| Nitsuga | Psychoholic, with ext3 it was taking more than 10 minutes :P | 01:08 |
| apeepa | how do i update my libraries? | 01:08 |

| DasEi | nyqvist: so if x causes you trouble at reboot, can't log into desktop no more, press ctrl-alt-F1, login, enter the two cmds | 01:18 |
| harleypig | PsychoMari0: sorry, I wasn't clear enough. I've got vim set as my default editor from the command line, but I want kde to use gvim as it's default. | 01:18 |

| autoclesis | okay | 01:18 |
| autoclesis | Ubuntu 9.10 Desktop Edition CD - Pack of 5 Out of Stock | 01:18 |

| nyqvist | DasEi, that's it? Good luck? :) | 01:19 |
| autoclesis | you have to buy 100 from canonical | 01:19 |

| chocotaco69 | It is in a separate drive. How would I go about using it? | 01:19 |
| PsychoMari0 | chocotaco69: add that extra drive to fstab, then just set that directory in the users and groups | 01:20 |
| chocotaco69 | what can I google to do learn how to do that? | 01:20 |

| epaphus | Hello. I want to be able to VNC into 10 machines at the same time so that I can monitor there activity. The trick is I want to be able to minimize each window so it fits into my screen. What does this depend on.. and where should I look for more info/help ??? | 01:27 |
| hyperstream | ayam_jago, have you tried this: http://crazytoon.com/2007/05/21/perl-how-do-i-install-perl-modules-eg-installing-lwp-module-for-perl/ | 01:27 |
| autoclesis | !vnc | 01:27 |
| ubottu | VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 01:27 |
| epaphus | (so that the 10 vnc windows all fit in 1 screen) | 01:27 |
| epaphus | !FreeNX | 01:28 |
| ubottu | FreeNX is advanced remote desktop technology. For more information and install instructions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX | 01:28 |
| ayam_jago | no | 01:28 |

| epaphus | DasEi, its a LAN .. i dont really care :) | 01:28 |
| hyperstream | ayam_jago, i just googled -> 'Can't locate LWP/Socket.pm in @INC' , and got that result. | 01:28 |
| epaphus | DasEi, i suppose FreeNX doesnt do it through ssh right? | 01:29 |
| ayam_jago | ok thanks | 01:29 |
| DasEi | epaphus: don't think so, not sure, newer vnc solutions (tight/Ultra~) do, also darkstat migt be of interest then | 01:30 |
| DasEi | !info darkstat | 01:30 |

| hyperstream | It seems my desktop that is running Karmic 9.10, is unabled to be pinged by my Lucid laptop and windows machines on the same network, UNLESS i ping the other computers from the desktop first, just destination host unreachable, what is causing this? | 01:31 |
| DasEi | epaphus: ah, no, you wanted to monitor their load, wrong darkstat then | 01:31 |
| epaphus | no .. i want to monitor the screen in real time.. anything they open or do | 01:32 |
| epaphus | DasEi | 01:32 |
| epaphus | i guess my options are FreeNX / VNC | 01:32 |
| epaphus | correct? | 01:32 |
| PsychoMari0 | hyperstream: are you saying that one computer cannot ping the other, unless the other pings the first one first? | 01:32 |
| konr | Guys, when I run `firefox`, even without the .mozilla folder, it hangs there without opening it, but `sudo firefox` works fine. What could be wrong | 01:32 |
| hyperstream | PsychoMari0, exactly | 01:32 |
| hyperstream | Psychoholic, its kind of strange ;/ | 01:33 |
| DasEi | epaphus: so vnc or rtd 8remote desktop) are your candidates, pesonally never used freeNX, so can't say | 01:33 |
| arundracula | when I add an a/c in empathy it is not showing available - that portion is disabled.. | 01:33 |
| PsychoMari0 | hyperstream: sounds like an ARP or DNS problem | 01:33 |
| PsychoMari0 | hyperstream: are you pinging hostnames or IP addresses? | 01:34 |
| epaphus | DasEi, thanks.. one more thing.. have you ever seen that option of miniziming to scale the screen so i can actually monitor 5'10 computers at the same time? | 01:34 |
| hyperstream | PsychoMari0, ip addresses | 01:34 |
| PsychoMari0 | hyperstream: might be an ARP problem, dont know why though | 01:34 |
| hyperstream | Psychoholic, is that ubuntu related or my router? | 01:34 |
| DasEi | epaphus: have a look at tight and ultravnc, the second I used and I "think it could be sized | 01:34 |
| DasEi | epaphus: for sure the compression of ultravnc is great, you will need it at 10 clients | 01:35 |
| dgd | epaphus: you could use RealVNC (dunno if in Ubuntu repositories...) | 01:35 |
| epaphus | DasEi, excellent.. this is just speaking about the client itself.. the server is the same right? | 01:36 |
| PsychoMari0 | hyperstream: NIC, its the basis for how networking works, ARP is. without packet analysis you wouldnt know. im sure that its some other problem, becuase ARP is possibly a bit too complex of a problem | 01:36 |
| hyperstream | Psychoholic, thats awesome, thanks (my dlink wifi adapter is most likely to blame) wasnt happening when it was wired :) cheers mate | 01:37 |
| dgd | What is Ubuntu using for autoinstalls? | 01:37 |
| DasEi | epaphus: these are diffrent implementations of vnc, each with it's own server-client, ultra vnc isn't in the repos I think but can be compiled via source | 01:37 |
| KnifeySpooney | I know this isn't the best place to ask, but my local area network usually disconnects when my (wireless) phone rings. I think this is causing interference in the network and disconnecting me. Do you think changing my router to use channel 8 instead of channel 10 will fix this problem? | 01:37 |
| PsychoMari0 | hyperstream: i cant garuantee that is the problem. infact it is probably not | 01:37 |
| epaphus | DasEi, thank you!! | 01:37 |
| dgd | Docs suggest kickstart, but that is old docs. | 01:37 |
| hyperstream | PsychoMari0, oh, | 01:38 |
| PsychoMari0 | KnifeySpooney: that problem isnt unheard of, try changing the channel, see if it helps | 01:38 |
| hyperstream | KnifeySpooney, move the wireless router away from the cordless phone and/or higher perhaps? | 01:38 |

| nyqvist | DasEi, i tried it.. it said it's not installed | 01:47 |
| SliderMan | its all ntfs i think | 01:47 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: x-server-xorg or xserver-xorg ? | 01:47 |
| Helius | blakkheim | 01:47 |
| SliderMan | <DasEi> sda1 + 2 | 01:47 |
| bastid_raZor | cjae: are you wanting to have fsck check the partitions on the next reboot? there is no way to have fsck do anything while the partitions are mounted. | 01:47 |
| nyqvist | x-server-xorg | 01:48 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: typo then | 01:48 |
| hitek88 | How can I tell what processes are running? | 01:48 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 01:48 |
| nyqvist | kk.. i'll try ..brb | 01:48 |
| PsychoMari0 | hitek88: 'top' command | 01:48 |
| hitek88 | psycho_oreos thanks | 01:49 |
| bastid_raZor | cjae: fsck is only run every so many reboots. so if one is missed it is not that big of a deal. | 01:49 |
| DasEi | SliderMan: k, we try sda1 first, you'll look at the files and tell if that was the right one | 01:49 |
| cjae | bastid_raZor: right, I need before mounted, without a way to be cancelled. or maybe on shutdown | 01:49 |
| Helius | can someone help me install a downloaded ubuntu util | 01:49 |

| DasEi | SliderMan: sudo apt-get install ntfsprogs | 01:49 |
| Gaming4JC | hitek88: System >> Administration >> System Monitor shows some processes. Also "ps -auwx" will list a lot | 01:49 |

| MilitantPotato | cjae: then restart | 01:49 |
| koshari | can grub2 use labels to identify a partition | 01:50 |
| DasEi | SliderMan: sudo chown -R $USER /host | 01:50 |
| bastid_raZor | cjae: you can follow MilitantPotato's suggestion to get a fsck done on the very next reboot.. i don't of a way to disable the ability to cancel a fsck | 01:50 |
| DasEi | SliderMan: sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sda1 /host | 01:50 |

| arundracula | which is the nvidia driver for 9800GT? | 01:51 |
| puyover | I can't switch to any TTY. When I try, my computer get frozen. If I press ALT+CTRL+F7 I can recover the control. Any help? :S | 01:51 |
| DasEi | SliderMan: which cmd ? | 01:51 |
| cjae | MilitantPotato: but this is only once, and since it is a laptop it is prone to hard offs and suspends failing and loss of power and such, but how to explain to let thefsck run is beyond me | 01:51 |
| SliderMan | sudo chown -R $user /host | 01:51 |
| dgd | puyover: if you can switch back to X (as you did with Alt-Ctrl-F7) then its not frozen. | 01:52 |
| abumaia | how do I kill an "uninterruptible" process? | 01:52 |
| DasEi | SliderMan: watch the cases $USER <> $user, not same | 01:52 |
| SliderMan | thanks | 01:52 |
| PsychoMari0 | abumaia: with the power button | 01:52 |
| dgd | puyover: have you tried Alt-Ctrl-F1 (to get to virtual terminal 1)? | 01:52 |
| void_pointer | abumaia you ask politely that it kills itself | 01:52 |
| dgd | abumaia: If you mean a process listed as state 'Z' in the ps listing, you dont... | 01:53 |
| puyover | dgd: yes but the cursor disapear and I can't do nothing | 01:53 |
| void_pointer | "Please Mr. Process, will you stop?" | 01:53 |

| Helius | truecrypt in Live session | 01:55 |
| Helius | i downloaded the file | 01:55 |
| Helius | no idea how to install it | 01:56 |
| SliderMan | <DasEi> says device /dev/sda2 dosent seem to have a valid ntfs | 01:56 |
| DasEi | arundracula: wrong chan here, wikipedia telly you, nvidia does, or #hardware | 01:56 |
| SliderMan | even tho fdisk showed it had | 01:56 |
| PsychoMari0 | Helius: isnt it a .tar.gz file? | 01:56 |
| Helius | i see no extension | 01:56 |
| ahmedramdane | how come i do not need an antivirus for Ubuntu? | 01:56 |
| Helius | how do you turn on extensions | 01:56 |
| bikcmp | ahmedramdane: Because it's safe | 01:56 |

| ahmedramdane | what is the best way to learn kernel? | 01:59 |
| void_pointer | abumaia well first do "ps -eO user -H" to look at the process tree and status | 01:59 |
| wolter | DasEi, any editor preinstalled in linux by default? | 01:59 |
| SliderMan | <DasEi> it opened gedit with some wierd stuff in it | 01:59 |
| DasEi | !distro | wolter | 01:59 |
| peope | ahmedramdane: how do you mean "learn kernel" ? | 01:59 |
| ubottu | wolter: Other !Linux distributions besides !Ubuntu include: Debian, Mepis (using !APT); RedHat, Fedora, SUSE, Mandriva (using !RPM); Gentoo, Slackware (using other packaging systems) | 01:59 |

| Freenoce | Hi? Does anyone have any idea on why it is not working? Is FTP disabled by default? If so how would i go about by enabling it | 02:00 |
| DasEi | SliderMan: /dev/sda3 /host ntfs user,auto,rw,exec 0 0 | 02:01 |
| PsychoMari0 | ahmedramdane: you need to learn a programming language | 02:01 |
| Gaming4JC | Roasted: You've tried: System>>Preferences>>Appearance Preferences>>Theme>>Customize>>Pointer? | 02:01 |
| snoopy | fail | 02:01 |
| DasEi | SliderMan: save fstab, close gedit, that's it | 02:01 |
| Roasted | Gaming4JC, yes. But now, I have VLC open... and when I hover over VLC, the stupid icon comes back. Its weird. I never had this before. | 02:01 |
| peope | ahmedramdane: I guess you are not talking about kernel programming. But writing applications for GNU/Linux? | 02:01 |
| void_pointer | ahmedramdane you want to hack the kernel learn C and C++. Sorry, but it's the way you have to go | 02:01 |
| ahmedramdane | i know some basic | 02:01 |
| tp43 | I did familiar linux on ipaq, but I couldn't find https browser, but I guess I couldn't configured the mail client, also, I couldn't figure out how to use my sd cards | 02:01 |
| tp43 | If I could I would go back to Linux | 02:02 |
| peope | ahmedramdane: If so you could check out how to make programs with gtk (for graphic programs) | 02:02 |
| PsychoMari0 | void_pointer: i thought the whole of the kernel was | 02:02 |
| Helius | PsychoMari0 do you know when you use Ubuntu in Live session, does it use a ram disk when running or tried to use a hard drive? | 02:02 |
| PsychoMari0 | void_pointer: i thought the whole of the kernel was C? | 02:02 |
| Freenoce | Can no one help me? Does no one know why it won't let me connect? | 02:02 |
| SliderMan | <DasEi> if i add sshd on it will it work too? | 02:02 |
| SliderMan | or this file is for partitions only? | 02:02 |
| ahmedramdane | i read some c book and bash scripting but i am not able of practicing them yet | 02:02 |
| PsychoMari0 | Helius: it uses a ram disk, that is one of its features; it doesnt touch the hard drive | 02:02 |
| peope | I dont think there is any C++ in the kernel | 02:02 |
| void_pointer | PsychoMari0 well C and assembly | 02:02 |
| Helius | nice | 02:02 |
| void_pointer | PsychoMari0 but that will only scare him | 02:02 |
| DasEi | SliderMan: sshd ? ssd ? | 02:03 |
| void_pointer | peope yes, but the C++ is for everything else | 02:03 |
| peope | So little assembly that is not even worth mentioning, I believe :) | 02:03 |
| PsychoMari0 | void_pointer: assembly? yeah | 02:03 |
| Freenoce | Can anyone see me or my messages at least? | 02:03 |
| Helius | so I can download files and it basically downloads the file to ram | 02:03 |
| abumaia | void_pointer: the process is listed 3219 abumaia D ? | 02:03 |
| DasEi | SliderMan: I don't understand .. | 02:03 |
| SliderMan | <DasEi> secured shell? sftp | 02:03 |
| peope | void_pointer: well... It depends on the project if I choose C or C++. If practical I choose C. | 02:03 |
| PsychoMari0 | Helius: yes, when you turn off, its gone | 02:03 |
| void_pointer | abumaia ah, uninterruptable sleep | 02:03 |
| void_pointer | abumaia the "-D" | 02:04 |
| Freenoce | Please anyone help me! I need to get this working! | 02:04 |
| Helius | i need this to backup encrypted drives with truecrypt | 02:04 |
| PsychoMari0 | Theoretically, could you rewrite the whole kernel in, say, C++? | 02:04 |
| DasEi | SliderMan: you can access /host from it, after configurung sftp / ssh for it, sure | 02:04 |
| koshari | where do you edit the config in grub2 | 02:04 |
| abumaia | that seems a bit odd, that a program can crash and become uninterruptible. | 02:04 |

| DasEi | koshari: /etc/default/grub, mainly | 02:04 |
| Freenoce | Hello. Firstly, can anyone see my message? | 02:04 |
| void_pointer | peope we do big projects that are mostly C++. Would be very hard to do big projects all in C. But for my own stuff I loves the C, pappy. Loves it | 02:04 |
| ahmedramdane | pointers are good to learn when you are dealing with data addressing like in c programming | 02:04 |
| abumaia | without a way to get around it | 02:04 |

In the time it takes you to write a program that performs an A* algorithm, I could bring and entire project from conception to delivery using a high level language. | 02:12 |

| rfeil | The performance gains you get from writing the assembly level code is also marginal compared to assembly from a well written compiler. | 02:13 |

| rfeil | You spend 700% of the time developing something that is only 2% faster and you go out of business pretty darn fast. | 02:13 |
| nyqvist | ... | 02:13 |
| peope | void_pointer: nowadays I'm more or less retired | 02:13 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: sudo rm xorg.conf | 02:13 |
| sYk | ahmedramdane, because there are no "good working" viruses for linux | 02:13 |
| rfeil | THAT is why you don't program everything in assembly. | 02:13 |
| cetandi | Hello: I hve a problem with fire fox and wondering if it is ubuntu related or a firefox problem only, but Firefox starts without Minimize, Maximize, and Close buttons, and I already tried F11, and that works, but it seems to me that I shouldn't have to do that all the time | 02:14 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: sudo touch xorg.conf | 02:14 |
| Helius | ok what i gotta do to listen to mp3s now | 02:14 |
| nyqvist | wait | 02:14 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 02:14 |
| rfeil | I'd also like to point out that code reuse is IMPOSSIBLE with hand written assembly language. It's about as flexible as a steel rod. | 02:14 |
| ahmedramdane | void_pointer i am just learning how to use the computer that is why some times i ask some nonsense questions | 02:14 |
| void_pointer | I mean if you had 4 years and the right programmers for every project you could probably do it all in C. But no one has that | 02:14 |
| cetandi | BTW relatively new to linux | 02:14 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: exit | 02:14 |
| nyqvist | after sudo rm xorg.conf it said >>> sudo: unable to resolve host ubuntu | 02:14 |
| PsychoMari0 | how can i set keyboard shortcuts in KDE (UNR)? | 02:14 |

| void_pointer | rfeil but chicks dig it | 02:15 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: just run the cmds | 02:15 |
| perryarmstrong | i gave the command chmod 777 * to my files in usb... i am not sure of the permissions | 02:15 |
| rfeil | The only time you will write assembly code is if you're doing a simple embedded device or an embedded device that has extremely limited resources. | 02:15 |
| dgd | rfeil: but that's what libraries are for... | 02:15 |
| ahmedramdane | i am very happy to hear that i will not need to pay few bucks to buy an antivirus | 02:15 |
| dgd | rfeil: of course, with limited resources, one could still use FORTH... | 02:16 |
| Sunshine | Welp, updated flashplayer-installer and it broke. How do I roll back? | 02:16 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, done all the cmds.. altough after each i got sudo: unable to resolve host ubuntu | 02:16 |
| PsychoMari0 | rfeil: assembly can also be much much smaller than ~C | 02:16 |
| peope | void_pointer: well... c++ has a lot of RAD features in it. My opinion. And sure it speed it up. And it is a good thing depending on what you are creating. For a kernel it might be good to have a language with a good ABI like C has :) | 02:16 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: reconfigured / exit'd ? | 02:16 |
| teage | teage | 02:16 |
| dgd | !Sunshine: apt-get remove flashplayer-installer | 02:17 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 02:17 |
| rfeil | Yes it can, PsychoMari0. Very much smaller. That's why if you have very limited resources, going full assembly is the choice to make. But for regular everyday programming, assembly is almost laughably impractical. | 02:17 |
| sYk | yeah .. and no "anti-spyware 2010", "desktop firewall" ... ;) | 02:17 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: sudo reboot, shall be able to get to desk again, now | 02:17 |
| mc-scrat | Hi all. Is it real to rename my ppp0 interface to something else? | 02:17 |
| nyqvist | brb | 02:17 |
| PsychoMari0 | mc-scrat: no, becuase thats what it is | 02:17 |
| dgd | Sunshine: run apt-get remove flashplayer-installer as root... | 02:17 |
| DasEi | SliderMan: again ? what two ? | 02:17 |
| peope | I often use script-languages for utilities | 02:18 |
| rfeil | Also: Gah...must...find...ramdisk files... | 02:18 |
| Dr_Willis | mc-scrat: why do you even want to do that? | 02:18 |
| peope | Like perl or php for web-based stuff. That is really fast programming | 02:18 |
| CountDown | Is anyone here running UNR on an Acer Aspire One? Are you happy with it? Which Aspire One do you have? | 02:18 |
| Sunshine | That removes it, I want to roll it back | 02:19 |
| Dr_Willis | CountDown: my AAO does UNR very well. I got an AAO last Xmas. so its about a year+ old now | 02:19 |
| dgd | Sunshine: "roll it back"? Back to what? | 02:19 |
| CountDown | Dr_Willis: Does that mean it's a D150? | 02:19 |
| princezuda | hey, I know this channel is jam packed so I hope I'll be able to get some help. I'm trying to compile the source code of ruby 1.9.1, yet I don't know how to do that on ubuntu. If anyone would be kind enough to give me a link or something I'd really appreciate it. | 02:19 |
| ahmedramdane | i am running an intel core i3 . when i installed ubuntu 9.10 i was freezing all the time. last night someone here in this chanal helped me to remove Compiz and it is working fine right now. so why is compiz not compatible with core i3 yet? | 02:19 |
| Dr_Willis | CountDown: no idea what # it is. | 02:19 |
| Sunshine | It just updated, I want the previous version as it didn't break | 02:20 |
| PsychoMari0 | princezuda: sudo apt-get install ruby1.9.1 | 02:20 |
| CountDown | Dr_Willis: Are you running 9.10? | 02:20 |
| tt_ | how do i run /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup as root? | 02:20 |
| Dr_Willis | CountDown: yes. Its running UNR 9.10 | 02:20 |

| dgd | Sunshine: apt-get --reinstall install flashplayer-installer=9.99.999 | 02:20 |
| mc-scrat | Dr_Willis: because I'd like to establish a ptp connection to my provider's Internet, and then make my friends connect to me using ptp too, so to distinguish all those ppps and to transparently see rules of ipchains... something like this | 02:21 |
| dgd | Sunshine: replace 9.99.999 with version # | 02:21 |

| mrmile07 | i'm looking for a good C++ compiler for ubuntu. using terminal is slightly frustrating.. any suggestions? | 02:22 |
| PsychoMari0 | peope: that takes *FOREVER*; i did it once, and it took a week to do all the compiling | 02:22 |
| Dr_Willis | mrmile07: you mean you want a C++ 'ide' then ? | 02:22 |
| dgd | mrmile07: gcc++ | 02:22 |
| blakkheim | mrmile07: vi | 02:22 |
| PsychoMari0 | mrmile07: kdevelop | 02:22 |
| peope | PsychoMari0: yeah. But fun as heck. And at least I learn a *lot* :) | 02:22 |
| mrmile07 | yes an ide | 02:22 |
| Avogadro | Is there a stand-alone flash player in ubuntu? | 02:22 |
| DasEi | mrmile07: can use any editor, then run in c++ | 02:22 |
| PsychoMari0 | peope: snap | 02:22 |
| dgd | mrmile07: eclipse? | 02:22 |
| peope | Avogadro: yes... but dont remember what it is called | 02:23 |
| Kismet | hey guys... i can not see my iphone anymore when i connect it to ubuntu.... it is a jailborken one... | 02:23 |
| mrmile07 | well i mean i'm writing the code in gedit | 02:23 |
| peope | Avogadro: sudo apt-cache search flash | 02:23 |
| Kismet | and automounting usb drives dosen't work anymore | 02:23 |
| Dr_Willis | mrmile07: you may want to check out 'geany' for an editor | 02:23 |
| PsychoMari0 | mrmile07:write/compile/debug in kdevelop | 02:23 |
| mrmile07 | but would like something like visual studio for simpler compiling/error finding | 02:23 |
| mrmile07 | wow thank you for all the help | 02:23 |
| peope | Avogadro: kflash | 02:23 |
| Dr_Willis | mrmile07: so you do want an 'IDE' then | 02:23 |
| Kismet | i can see with the command lsusb.. that i connected the iphone | 02:24 |
| Kismet | i even can use it in virtual box | 02:24 |
| Dr_Willis | Kismet: try mounting it manually | 02:24 |
| Kismet | Dr_Willis, thats the thing i don't know where it is | 02:24 |
| Dr_Willis | Kismet: 'dmesg' or 'sudo fdisk -l' should give a clue | 02:24 |
| PsychoMari0 | Kismet; use ifuse, you dont need to know where it is | 02:25 |
| Avogadro | peope: could not find it in the repo | 02:25 |
| Kismet | Dr_Willis, it is not listed there | 02:25 |
| Kismet | PsychoMari0, how? | 02:25 |
| dgd | Kismet: if the system sees the iPhone as a mass storage device, it should be listed under /media | 02:25 |
| peope | For IDEs there are codeblocks, kdevelop (for kde)... and quite a few more | 02:25 |
| dgd | Kismet: or perhaps in a listing from mount command | 02:25 |
| mrmile07 | @Dr_Willis yes | 02:25 |
| tt_ | b | 02:25 |
| peope | Avogadro: sudo apt-get update ? | 02:26 |
| PsychoMari0 | Kismet: err... i cant remember how i found that actually, there was some tutorial i found with google with the ubuntu repo | 02:26 |
| Kismet | dgd, nope it is not in there | 02:26 |
| Dr_Willis | if the automounting system is not working right - thenit wont be in /media/ | 02:26 |
| dgd | Kismet: sounds like PsychoMari0 has more experience with this... | 02:26 |
| Dr_Willis | If fdisk -l, isent shoing it.. that is very odd | 02:26 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, it seems that the login scree is fine.. but when i logged in to the ubuntu. all i have, is a white screen..i can hear the application running fine, but the screen is white :( | 02:26 |
| dgd | Dr_Willis: aye | 02:26 |
| Kismet | PsychoMari0, can you help me out | 02:27 |
| peope | Avogadro: klash .... sorry | 02:27 |
| cetandi | I know you guys are bust, but I can't even keep up with ya....so could someone tell me a better place to get the answer to: Hello: problem with fire fox and wondering if it is ubuntu related or a firefox problem only, but Firefox starts without Minimize, Maximize, and Close buttons, and I already tried F11, and that works, but it seems to me that I shouldn't have to do that all the time | 02:27 |
| PsychoMari0 | Kismet: sure, ill see if i can find the tutorial i used | 02:27 |
| snoopy | can i change the noise my linux makes when it boots up | 02:27 |
| peope | Avogadro: klash - free SWF movie player - standalone player for KDE | 02:27 |
| cetandi | busy i mean | 02:27 |
| Kismet | Dr_Willis, yeah it is not showing it... but i can see it in Virtual Box | 02:27 |
| Dr_Willis | snoopy: thers some sound file somewhere you can change.. and i dont rember where its at | 02:27 |
| Bsims | yeah its in the gnome settings somewhere | 02:27 |
| Kismet | PsychoMari0, thank you | 02:27 |
| snoopy | aww bummer }: | 02:27 |
| dgd | cetandi: you want Firefox to start in full-screen mode every time? | 02:27 |
| Dr_Willis | Kismet: could be vbox somehow has it locked. Not sure about thgat | 02:27 |
| snoopy | i am enraged now. :| | 02:28 |
| snoopy | JP :D | 02:28 |
| Dr_Willis | snoopy: i just normally turn the startup sound off. | 02:28 |
| snoopy | ohh, hm. | 02:28 |
| Kismet | Dr_Willis, hmm i don't think so... | 02:28 |
| Kismet | Vbox is not running Dr_Willis | 02:28 |
| dgd | snoopy: look in the sound theme - I think its in there. | 02:28 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: muharr.. k, we will try to bring the sys to it's state we started, either wait for another day or wait for lucid coming soon, I know the radeon open source driver does better, too, but we're running out time now | 02:28 |
| theshadow | ubuntu 9.10 empathy 2.28.1.1 I can't seem to get gtalk to connect all I get is a "Network Error" message any pointers? | 02:28 |
| snoopy | sound theme? where that at | 02:28 |
| PsychoMari0 | Kismet: http://www.ghabuntu.com/2009/09/ifuse-mount-your-iphoneipod-touch-in.html there we go | 02:28 |
| dgd | cetandi: I think firefox has an option to start in full-screen mode | 02:28 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, kk... | 02:28 |
| cetandi | dgd...thanks...really I just want to be able to open fire fox and minimize a window to be able to open another windo | 02:29 |
| Kismet | PsychoMari0, I have a look on tat | 02:29 |
| peope | theshadow: No idea... but perhaps behind a firewall? | 02:29 |
| rfeil | I'm beginning to suspect the drivers for a ramdisk might be hidden from me and/or owned by root and root is too mean to let me know where they are. | 02:29 |
| dgd | cetandi: I think there's also an option to open Firefox in minimized mode | 02:29 |
| PsychoMari0 | Kismet: you follow that tutorial, then just run 'ifuse /mountpoint' | 02:29 |
| dgd | snoopy: In your preferences somewhere - under Sound I think... | 02:29 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: sudo mkdir /media/sda1 | 02:29 |
| theshadow | peope: no, it just randomly stopped working | 02:29 |
| nyqvist | done | 02:30 |
| snoopy | ah! got it thanks dude | 02:30 |
| teage | firefox has many options, the one option i wish it had is terminal emulator. | 02:30 |
| PsychoMari0 | rfeil: your computer is conspiring against you | 02:30 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/sda1 | 02:30 |
| teage | that would be nice | 02:30 |
| peope | theshadow: oh... It was just a guess. Sorry | 02:30 |
| PsychoMari0 | teage: write one :D | 02:30 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, done. | 02:30 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: sudo mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc | 02:30 |
| cetandi | dgd ok but it's been working fine till now and when I went to firefox help there was someone else there with the same problem running ubuntu 8.04...she had to F11 all the time | 02:30 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, mount: mount point /mnt/proc does not exist | 02:31 |
| rfeil | I know it is PsychoMari0, evil thing. | 02:31 |
| peope | teage: lol... a terminal emulator? What for? :D | 02:31 |
| teage | peope: for tutorials | 02:31 |
| * peope scratches his head | 02:31 | |
| PsychoMari0 | peope: editing your code(html/php/etc)/moving it about, whilst previewing it | 02:31 |
| teage | peope: thats one thing i like about konqueror | 02:31 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: sudo mount --bind /dev /media/sda1/dev | 02:32 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: sudo mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc | 02:32 |
| klappi | call me stupid i just use two windows | 02:32 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: sudo mount --bind /sys /mnt/sys | 02:32 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, the 1st cmd run well, the second gives me mount: mount point /mnt/proc does not exist | 02:32 |
| Kismet | PsychoMari0, hmm doesn't work for me | 02:33 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: my fault | 02:33 |
| peope | There are a few developer addons to firefox where you can change client side code on the spot if you like | 02:33 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: sudo mount --bind /sys /media/sda1/sys | 02:33 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, done. | 02:33 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: sudo mount --bind /sys /media/sda1/sys | 02:33 |
| peope | Dont know what a terminal emulator has to do with it though | 02:33 |
| Kismet | PsychoMari0, i guess because my auto mounting doesn't recognize my Iphone anymore | 02:33 |
| teage | PsychoMari8: I have thought about writing something of the sort, Im not ready for that kind of work yet, I still have much much to learn. Been reading though. Maybe one day I will if no one beats me to it | 02:33 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, done. | 02:33 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: sudo chroot /media/sda1/ | 02:34 |
| peope | xterm, rxvt are terminal emulators | 02:34 |
| PsychoMari0 | Kismet: google 'iphone ubuntu ifuse' sorry i cant help more, its my bedtime :P | 02:34 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, done. | 02:34 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf_backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 02:34 |
| peope | not to mention gnome-terminal | 02:34 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, sudo: unable to resolve host ubuntu | 02:35 |
| peope | Konqueror has some really nice features. Like browsing ssh (mounts) | 02:35 |
| nyqvist | but i run it | 02:35 |
| user____ | I'm trying to put a link to the fingerprint tf-tool --acquire in the launcher menu but it doesn't work | 02:36 |
| user____ | it shows a terminal for a brief second | 02:36 |
| user____ | then fails again | 02:36 |
| user____ | the command works perfect from a terminal if I open it | 02:36 |
| teage | peope: I mean a terminal emulator that runs within firefox, kind of like what konqueror has. | 02:36 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: sudo dpkg -r linux-image-2.6.32-020632rc8-generic_2.6.32-020632rc8_i386.deb | 02:37 |
| phpmonk | user____, what lib/tool you are using for fingerprint device reading? | 02:37 |
| peope | teage: ok... I dont know what kind of terminal emulator konqueror has. Sorry | 02:37 |

| user____ | tf-tool --acquire part of thinkfinger | 02:37 |
| === user____ is now known as Induane | ||
| gwildor | teage, konqueror has one because it is also a file manager, firefox is not, but if there is a terminal emulator, it will be on the firefox plugins page | 02:37 |
| cetandi | Thanks dgd...I know it's a minimal problem..it's just that I would like it if I could get the little bugs worked out on this computer...I still can't get my printer going or fax and although I hate the GATES..unfortunately I may have to run windows again...at least for the office stuff | 02:38 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, http://paste.ubuntu.com/378075/ | 02:38 |
| dgd | cetandi: I just looked at firefox options (on Karmic): no such options seemed to be present.... | 02:38 |
| peope | user____: Often flashes are when you are running a cli program | 02:38 |
| dgd | cetandi: but I was sure there WERE such options... | 02:38 |
| Induane | it is a cli program | 02:38 |
| dgd | cetandi: somewhere.... | 02:38 |
| Induane | its an issue I'm having | 02:39 |
| peope | If you try "application in terminal" ? | 02:39 |
| Induane | cli apps don't seem to work from the launcher men0 | 02:39 |
| Induane | menu its a clean install | 02:39 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: sudo apt-get install fglrx-kernel-source xorg-driver-fglrx fglry-amdcccle fglrx-modaliases | 02:39 |
| Induane | yea tried application in terminal first | 02:39 |
| DaemonFC | peope, it's left over from when Konqueror was meant to be the primary file manager on KDE, it's still more capable than Dolphin (which is more like Nautilus in GNOME) | 02:39 |
| Induane | then tried gnome-terminal -x gksudo tf-tool --acquire | 02:39 |
| cetandi | dgd I will check it out I think you are right..I just wanted it to work the way it did...it was great...thanks | 02:39 |
| DaemonFC | iirc, Konqueror lets you open the current folder in a terminal | 02:39 |
| Induane | which also works from a command line as it should - spawns a new terminal, asks for password, etc | 02:39 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, http://paste.ubuntu.com/378076/ | 02:39 |
| Induane | but in a launcher that doesn't work | 02:39 |
| Fernandos | hi | 02:39 |
| th0r | Induane: how are you invoking the cli program? I use 'xterm -e <command>' all the time | 02:40 |
| teage | gwildor: i have searched high and low, The only thing i have found even remotely close is a command line feature, but, its not a terminal. I believe its called "run in terminal" er something like that | 02:40 |
| Induane | I tried xterm -e as well | 02:40 |
| Induane | it does the same thing | 02:40 |
| DuxterFG | Hi | 02:40 |
| Fernandos | I don't get gettext working with php. I tried it since almost a week now. Without Success! | 02:40 |
| Induane | what I tried specifically was xterm -e gksu tf-tool --acquire | 02:40 |
| peope | DaemonFC: ok | 02:40 |
| Fernandos | Can someone please help me? | 02:40 |
| Induane | also I tried xterm -e gksudo "tf-tool --acquire" | 02:40 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: sudo apt-get install fglrx-kernel-source xorg-driver-fglrx fglrx-amdcccle fglrx-modaliases | 02:40 |
| Induane | and a variety of other combinations around " " | 02:41 |
| th0r | Induane: put the gksu first, invoke xterm as root | 02:41 |
| gwildor | teage, then it simply doesnt exist. firefox was not meant for that purpose. is there a reason why you would need this, maybe you should research "tilda" i think it may do what you need | 02:41 |
| Induane | th0r yea just tried that too | 02:41 |
| teage | gwildor: I know firefox isnt a file browser, but you can use it as such and i do from time to time. | 02:41 |
| Fernandos | I have installed: the package locales and then I've done a: dpkg-reconfigure locales still no luck :( | 02:41 |
| Induane | gksudo sh -c "gnome-terminal -x tf-tool --acquire" even this fails | 02:41 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: sudo apt-get remove linux-image-2.6.32-020632rc8-generic | 02:41 |
| Fernandos | all I have is apache,php5,mysql | 02:41 |
| Induane | ^ I was running out of ideas | 02:41 |
| Induane | tried same without the sh -c | 02:42 |
| gwildor | teage, you are more than welcome to make such a plugin, but unfortunatly, one is not available atm. as i said, look into "tilda" it may be close to what you require. | 02:42 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: packages found now ? | 02:42 |
| DaemonFC | teage, I personally think the web browser should *never* be a file manager. There are security holes in Internet Explorer from when it used to do this (even though it can't now) | 02:42 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, i didn't run this last command.. look what i got when u typed the 1 before the last 1 http://paste.ubuntu.com/378079/ | 02:42 |

| DaemonFC | melfy, You can stop it, but it can make it difficult to track down where a problem started later. It also means the firewall won't log an attack. Apparmor profile actions are not logged, etc. | 02:44 |

| DaemonFC | melfy, I just delete them when they get really old. Logging from 2006 to a few weeks ago only took up a few hundred megs though, that's nothing for a modern hard drive | 02:46 |
| dgd | Kismet: the system should have automounting in place already. If you want to use amd, you'll have to turn that off. | 02:46 |
| DaemonFC | that was on an old system that I've upgraded from 4.10 to 9.10 :) | 02:46 |
| Kismet | dgd, amd? | 02:46 |
| melfy | daemonfc: i know but its in a vmware on my intel x25 ssd, rather not have the writes =/ | 02:47 |

| DasEi | nyqvist: shall be newest already | 02:48 |

| Helius | its tries to find a plugin and fails | 02:48 |
| Helius | so now what | 02:48 |
| dgd | Helius: Fedora and Red Hat and OpenSUSE are all the same way. | 02:49 |
| DaemonFC | Helius, MP3 is not supported out of the box because it's not distributable without patent royalties in many countries. sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-ectras | 02:49 |

| === bkjhyftydr is now known as kkkkkkk | ||
| BHoward | Helius, use the directions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu | 02:53 |
| DaemonFC | Helius, It wouldn't be doing that if you had gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad, which ubuntu-restricted-extras brings in. The MP3 decoder is in there. | 02:53 |
| dgd | melfy: I usually use "dpkg -l | grep syslog" (or similar) | 02:53 |
| dgd | melfy: but I wouldn't uninstall | 02:53 |
| === kkkkkkk is now known as aahhsjjw | ||
| BHoward | Helius, if you follow those directions then do "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-packages" you will solve your problems | 02:53 |
| DaemonFC | Helius, odd that it should fail though. Can you install other things? | 02:53 |

| dgd | Helius: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 02:54 |
| Helius | i did | 02:54 |
| DaemonFC | Helius, Something else has a lock on dpkg, close any Synaptic instances | 02:54 |
| BHoward | no you didnt. | 02:54 |
| DaemonFC | or the ubuntu software installer | 02:54 |
| dgd | Helius: make sure that UpdateManager or other package-related tool is not still running | 02:54 |

| Helius | ill look and mess with it | 02:55 |
| DaemonFC | Helius, Only one thing can have a dpkg lock at a time. It does this so that the database can't end up in a state that the other open programs weren't expecting | 02:55 |

| dgd | melfy: You can leave it configured and just not start it on startup. | 02:56 |
| Helius | i dont know what is dpkg lock | 02:56 |

| dgd | melfy: there was an article in SysAdmin Magazine a while back on your exact situation - unfortunately, I dont know which | 02:57 |
| gwildor | Helius, dpkg lock is kind of like if you have a word document open, and try to open it again, it will open as read only..... something else is using dpkg, so that is what 'dpkg lock' means | 02:57 |

| DaemonFC | Helius, dpkg is the backend that manages software installation and uninstallation, APT is a front-end to dpkg that does dependency calculations and tracks software repositories that you added, from there you have Synaptic or Packagekit or another GUI that the user interacts with usually, but only one thing can use dpkg at once | 02:59 |

| thechris | freetown2: 9.10 | 03:01 |
| DaemonFC | Helius, System/Administration/Software sources, and make sure the checkbox next to Universe, and Multiverse are checked, hit close, and then refresh | 03:01 |
| DaemonFC | I forgot those aren't enabled by default, whoops :D | 03:01 |
| freetown2 | ...hmm...try looking at the mixer settings first. What sound card/chip do you have? | 03:01 |
| merlin2049er | hey, i formatted a new drive using ext4 | 03:01 |
| Helius | it still says the decoder plugin is not installed | 03:01 |
| thechris | Basically, i installed the gpe package. this resulted in gnome, gdm, and sound failing | 03:01 |
| Helius | i ran that | 03:01 |
| socratesthekid | I'm having problems with my wireless. Running ubuntu 9.10 on a fujitsu lifebook p1510d and it isn't recognizing my wireless card at all; doesn't even think its there | 03:01 |
| merlin2049er | why do i have to authorize each time i boot up to mount it | 03:01 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: you have both , the old xorg and the synaptic, can't be worse now | 03:02 |
| socratesthekid | tried madwifi, didnt fix it | 03:02 |
| thechris | I reinstalled gdm, but don't know about sound, gnome. | 03:02 |
| BHoward | Helius, good. now type sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 03:02 |
| teage | socratesthekid: do you know what card you have? | 03:02 |
| thechris | gnome is no longer listed in gdm for instance | 03:02 |
| thechris | and sound doesn't work. | 03:02 |
| socratesthekid | teage, i've tried to find the exact thing, best i've been able to find is the atheros super ag | 03:03 |
| gwildor | thechris, maybe it would just be easier to reinstall? i assume everything worked before ? | 03:03 |
| socratesthekid | i want to say i heard 5006 somewhere, but that might be a lie | 03:03 |
| nyqvist | DasEi, yes, it's like it was before.. but i tell u, something is strange. like no drivers. all laggy.. i can see the xchat window in lags, like string after string, delayed. | 03:03 |

| thechris | gwildor: yes, but if I reinstall it won't be *buntu. | 03:04 |
| BHoward | Helius, what did it say | 03:04 |
| Helius | says the package is obsolete | 03:04 |
| Helius | or something | 03:04 |
| thechris | as I really only want an OS that I can fix if needed | 03:04 |
| dgd | merlin2049er: is it a remote volume you are trying to mount? | 03:04 |
| thechris | or at least know how to fix | 03:04 |
| BHoward | Helius, follow the directions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu | 03:05 |
| Helius | age ubuntu-restricted-extras is not available, but is referred to by another package. | 03:05 |

| yoitsme | what tools do i need to read the linux kernel code? | 03:05 |
| thechris | alsamixer seems happy. | 03:05 |
| freetown2 | thechris, so get Fedora or Centos. Ubuntu has way too many things to decipher | 03:05 |
| gwildor | thechris, you installed ubuntu, and eberything worked....then you reinstalleed gdm, and did something else, and now sound doesnt work.... maybe start by telling us what you did? | 03:05 |
| teage | socratesthekid: try running " sudo lshw " and see if it sees yer wifi card | 03:05 |
| DasEi | nyqvist: you can try the dpkg-recon.. again, though it will overwrite xorg.conf (where you got a backup still, then); I don't see what shall bechanged now, the rc-kernel has it implemented, so no added modules there | 03:06 |
| merlin2049er | should i reformat? i used guid | 03:06 |
| thechris | gwildor: i installed gpe. I intended to get just the desktop apps, but it removed gdm in the process | 03:06 |
| thechris | gwildor: now i've removed the gpe meta-package | 03:06 |
| iflema | yoitsme download the source and go through it.... knowledge is the tool..... | 03:06 |

| sean93 | where can you get them on sale? | 04:02 |
| darolu | DrBlotter, do you have a sound (speaker) icon on top? | 04:02 |
| ZykoticK9 | DrBlotter, did you upgrade from a previous version? If so could you post the output of "uname -r" | 04:02 |

| DrBlotter | ok, i need a little help im pretty new to this, ive been following the trouble shooting tips, basically im running ubuntu cause my win update messed up and dont have any other op sys, how can i post my uname r output | 04:03 |
| darolu | DrBlotter: have you tried right clicking and selecting sound preferences? maybe you can fix it from there, usually it is a channel problem (analog output disabled/enabled), try there first. | 04:03 |

| sean93 | "Cannot join channel (+r) - you need to be identified with services" | 04:04 |
| Optimus55 | ? | 04:04 |
| treewojima | Optimus55: I'd start by making a skeleton xorg.conf file by running `X -configure`, then modify it from there to suit your needs | 04:05 |
| treewojima | i.e., switching to the savage driver | 04:05 |

| maxagaz | r00t_ninja, no, not any error message | 05:18 |

| soreau | free_loader: 1) the file does not have to be suffixed with .sh 2) Does the script have executable permissions? | 05:21 |

| hunt | Hi, since I themed gdm2 in karmic, I have an accessibility icon in my systray, how can I make it disappear? | 05:21 |
| rww | sv_83: correct. The version of fglrx that's compatible with the current version of xorg only supports R600 chipset cards and newer. | 05:22 |
| soreau | free_loader: You should only put the complete path to the script including the script name and make sure its executable. Dont use sh ./script | 05:22 |

| ocean_ | Hello, | 05:25 |
| ocean_ | I am completely new at Ubuntu (coming from windows). | 05:25 |
| ocean_ | I have a laptop from which I removed the HDD (it was not working anymore) and have bought a 320MG portable USB drive to use Ubuntu (Karmic Koala) on. I read many howtos and instructions on how to proceed in order to have a full install on an external drive and here is what I did: | 05:25 |
| ocean_ | Made sure my laptop would boot 1st from the CD/DVD reader, then from the USB drive in the boot setup | 05:25 |
| FloodBot2 | ocean_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:25 |
| ocean_ | Inserted a live Ubunto CD and connected the brand new USB HDD | 05:25 |
| rww | soreau: you realize that > means "greater than" and that 200 and 300 are not greater than 600, yes? | 05:25 |
| soreau | rww: Err.. I screwed up the sign | 05:26 |
| rww | soreau: ah :) | 05:26 |
| toter | anyone having problems when running sudo apt-get update? the process, at least on my machine, does not finish... "99% [Waiting for headers]" | 05:26 |
| sv_83 | thnaks fella rww | 05:26 |
| Danny`` | When installing, is it supposed to display the logo for an extended period of time? | 05:26 |
| rww | sv_83: no problem, good luck with the free driver :) | 05:27 |
| dgd | toter: I've had that problem before, but always put it down to connection timeouts et al | 05:27 |
| soreau | sv_83: In any event, all radeon cards <r8xx will work OORB with Lucid and the open driver | 05:27 |
| rww | Danny``: When you're booting up from a LiveCD, you mean? It can take a few minutes, it depends on your CD drive speed. | 05:27 |
| soreau | good ghad I screwed up again | 05:27 |

| ocean_ | Hi fieldse, yes I saw that and tried paste.ubuntu but am not sure how to use it | 05:30 |

| jonas_brother_lu | its hard for me to say without know the details | 05:40 |

| cbx | Should I use gparted to extend the volume? | 05:44 |
| ocean_ | npcl: the one without an internal HDD until all went wrong, then the one working to see if I could actually format it and start anew (did not work) | 05:44 |
| cbx | I do have empty partitions left | 05:44 |
| dgd | cbx: it should work... gparted will only allow you to manipulate certain filesystems in certain ways. If you just want to stretch a partition into adjacent free space, it should work. | 05:45 |

| npc1 | ocean_: so you were never using the external for anything else? | 05:46 |

| abhi_nav_ | anyone uses openvpn here? | 05:48 |
| Kai_ | I tried to and failed. | 05:48 |
| dgd | cbx: probably don't want to do that. Could move /home to new drive/partition - but shrinking a filesystem by multiple Gigs will take quite some time (hours on my 1.7GHz Pentium-M) | 05:48 |

| rob_p | abhi_nav_: OpenVPN is a wonderful VPN solution! | 05:49 |
| abhi_nav_ | rob_p: i am thinking about installing openvpn for that i need to talk someone who already tryied openvpn in real | 05:49 |
| abhi_nav_ | rob_p: dont tell me the theory i want practical result | 05:50 |
| abhi_nav_ | rob_p: :) | 05:50 |
| rob_p | abhi_nav_: I use it daily for many things and it's never failed me yet. | 05:50 |
| abhi_nav_ | rob_p: whats the actual target user of openvpn??? | 05:50 |
| Satish | Hello All | 05:50 |
| crunchbang | kill | 05:51 |
| abhi_nav_ | rob_p: can i use it for anonymously surfing the net? | 05:51 |
| dertyp | hey | 05:51 |
| Satish | what does mean by the error "BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 00000018" | 05:51 |
| abo- | audacious2 is taking 100% of my cpu to play a normal mp3 song... | 05:51 |
| Satish | i am on ubuntu-9.04 | 05:51 |
| rob_p | abhi_nav_: Anyone who wants/needs secure connectivity to a remote system/network would be a target user. | 05:51 |
| ocean_ | npcl: after I had determined the new partition table and while writing (maybe 5 minutes ahead into the process) | 05:51 |
| Satish | Does anyone is aware of it ? | 05:52 |
| === NetWork is now known as Guest47109 | ||
| abhi_nav_ | rob_p: i am not technical person. do u mena that i can use it for day-to-day perpose of surfing the internet anonymously???? | 05:52 |
| asfalt | it seems that the oidentd package, once installed only listens on ipv4 and not 6, is it the way it's compiled and would i need to compile myself? Afaik there is no distinct config option and it must be done at compile time from memory, pls msg me if any response? | 05:52 |
| mawst | Ok I need help with a launcher/bash script. | 05:52 |
| dgd | Satish: that's a Kernel Panic (otherwise known as Kernel Oops). | 05:52 |
| Helius | i need spdif out | 05:52 |
| Dextronaught | Satish, hasn't happened to me, I'd say try using Amarok as your music player | 05:52 |
| Dextronaught | it's what I use :) | 05:52 |
| ocean_ | npcl: OK, now it seems I am able to unmount the file system and actually delete the partition | 05:52 |
| Dextronaught | how do I browse files as root? | 05:53 |
| Dextronaught | without using terminal | 05:53 |
| dgd | Satish: at least, that's what it sounded like... | 05:53 |
| Satish | Dextronaught, I got this message when I unplug the usb-hub | 05:53 |
| ocean_ | Could there be something wrong with the ISO live CD? I used it successfully once before (for the laptop I am using to write this) | 05:53 |
| abhi_nav_ | rob_p: mean* | 05:53 |
| asfalt | or have i answered my own question... most likely that is the case | 05:53 |
| Satish | dgd, ok. And how do I overcome this ? | 05:53 |
| dgd | !help | mawst | 05:53 |
| ubottu | mawst: 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. :-) | 05:53 |
| rob_p | abhi_nav_: I live in a place where I don't trust the government operated ISP so I route all my traffic through a VPN tunnel whose end point is located in a more, "trusted" location. | 05:54 |
| npc1 | ocean_: I would try again, if the CD boots it's probably working fine | 05:54 |
| npc1 | ocean_:try again, as in installing | 05:55 |
| Satish | Dextronaught, dgd, If this panic ( oops ) is already known, then I am pretty much sure that there exist some patches for the same. | 05:55 |
| Satish | any idea about that ? | 05:55 |
| abhi_nav_ | rob_p: sorry but i am not technicao persona. i dont understand what is that trusted end point is? can u pleas just explain it? | 05:55 |
| ocean_ | npcl: doing it right now (fingers crossed... tx!) | 05:55 |
| rob_p | abhi_nav_: You can use it for day-to-day surfing but if you control the VPN server (responsible for it, etc.) then your actions will be traced to the IP of the VPN server. So although you can, "hide" behind it, you're not anonymous. | 05:55 |
| abhi_nav_ | rob_p: can i use it for accessing internet anonymously?????? | 05:55 |
| dgd | Satish: if your entire system stops cold and you have to reboot (via power on-off) then it is a kernel oops. Reading your description, I now suspect thats not what it was... | 05:56 |
| npc1 | ocean_: np I've had similar errors but it's odd to me you would get those on a new drive | 05:56 |
| abhi_nav_ | rob_p: ok thnx | 05:56 |
| rob_p | abhi_nav_: If you don't understand the words I'm using, you probably won't be able to set one up yourself. | 05:56 |
| abhi_nav_ | rob_p: ok i understand that much. | 05:57 |
| Satish | dgd, well...after this message. I can use my machine very well...but not few command like lsusb, gdmdynamic | 05:57 |
| npc1 | so anyone here know anything about alsa? | 05:57 |
| rob_p | abhi_nav_: Good luck with it. | 05:57 |
| militant | hello. neither firefox or chrome will load. chrome crashed playing a youtube, now neither browser will open. i obviously can't google for a solution :) | 05:57 |
| Satish | this commands freezes. | 05:57 |
| abhi_nav_ | rob_p: have u tried tor? | 05:57 |
| rob_p | abhi_nav_: Yes. | 05:57 |
| abhi_nav_ | rob_p: do u know the difference between tor and vpn???? | 05:57 |
| abhi_nav_ | rob_p: wait | 05:57 |
| militant | additionally, running ps gives me the usual output, but doesn't return to a command prompt | 05:58 |
| ocean_ | npc1: it is still under warranty (had them confirm I could use it for linux before I bought it) so if smthg is wrong with it I'm happier finding it right away. Thanks!! | 05:58 |
| rob_p | abhi_nav_: TOR is one of the only truly anonymous surfing services available. | 05:58 |
| abhi_nav_ | rob_p: I ask my quesion like this: what should i do to access internet anonymously and securly????? | 05:58 |
| qwebirc77294 | lol i use cgi-irc and freenode is kicking me out | 05:58 |
| qwebirc77294 | bye | 05:58 |
| rob_p | abhi_nav_: ...but it has drawbacks such as speed, reliability, etc. | 05:58 |
| cbx | Can anyone quickly link / guide me on moving the home directory? or should I just google it ;) | 05:58 |
| abhi_nav_ | rob_p: i think tor decreases speed? i am right? | 05:58 |
| npc1 | ocean_: if there's a newer version of the installer (you said you used that Cd once before?) then I would also try that | 05:59 |
| rob_p | abhi_nav_: TOR would be it. Yes. Speed is usually much lower and your latency will increase substantially. | 05:59 |
| abhi_nav_ | rob_p: ok | 05:59 |
| abhi_nav_ | any tor replacement? which will NOT decrease my speed???? | 06:00 |
| rob_p | abhi_nav_: Not that I know of. | 06:00 |
| abhi_nav_ | rob_p: ok | 06:00 |
| abhi_nav_ | rob_p: thnx | 06:00 |
| mawst | yeah sorry dgd I got distracted | 06:01 |
| mawst | hehe | 06:01 |
| rob_p | abhi_nav_: welcome... but don't use it for evil! :-) | 06:01 |
| abhi_nav_ | rob_p: yah sure | 06:01 |
| * dgd never gets distracted (who - moi?) | 06:01 | |
| * dgd looks innocent... | 06:01 | |
| ocean_ | npc1: what do you mean by "installer" ? I downloaded the ISO about 1 week ago, would it be already outdated? | 06:01 |
| mawst | trying to figure out why this script works when run from a term but not when I try to make a launcher to it: http://pastebin.ca/1799543 | 06:01 |
| dgd | mawst: simple answer: because when run from term, there is a terminal; when run from launcher, no term. | 06:02 |
| dgd | mawst: not sure how that script would fail, but would make line thusly: "java ... 2>&1 > /tmp/run.$$ &" and see what java reports... | 06:04 |
| npc1 | ocean_: Yea, I call it an installer/installation disc because I'm weird, but it sounds like how you the latest one. I find different distros and versions have different problems and recognize drives better than others. | 06:04 |
| npc1 | you have* | 06:04 |
| MilitantPotato | Where can I get a list of Ubuntu friendly USB GPS units? | 06:05 |

| MilitantPotato | If anyone answered me I lost net | 06:07 |
| npc1 | militantPotato: nope | 06:07 |

| DavidJHeinrich | it says "function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device" | 07:04 |
| emma | MilitantPotato1, you mean go to a char map each time and select it with the mouse? | 07:04 |
| MilitantPotato1 | emma: or learn the ascii code | 07:04 |
| wre | *Is there something significant what Ubuntu can't do in GUI?* | 07:04 |
| MilitantPotato1 | emma: not entirely sure you can do alt codes in ubuntu | 07:04 |
| BjornR1989 | I'd say alt+225 if that works in Ubuntu and not only on Windows. | 07:04 |
| emma | alt+# does not do that in Ubuntu. | 07:05 |
| DavidJHeinrich | might it not be working because I have this pulseaudio junk on here? (can I safely remove all pulse-audio stuff?) | 07:05 |
| emma | I might just make an auto complete for xchat that turns a.. into the umlaut | 07:05 |
| wre | *However, am not going to fill me head with 1000 of key combination either.* | 07:05 |
| emma | I thought perhaps there might be a way to tell ububuntu a certain key binding to generate the letters. | 07:06 |
| emma | That could work in all apps | 07:06 |

| DavidJHeinrich | MilitantPotato1: how do I do that? | 07:46 |
| indus | MilitantPotato1, why blacklist? | 07:46 |
| DavidJHeinrich | indus: it says can't find asound-gtk package? | 07:46 |

I found that .pulse-cookie is owned by root, lol. i changed that, now i can run alsamixer but audio still doesn't work. and alsamixer runs funny, i mean crazy, it doesn't give me all the control of volumes, just one option, never seen it before | 07:46 |
| MilitantPotato1 | you can either blacklist it, or set alsa to ignore it | 07:47 |
| DavidJHeinrich | MilitantPotato1: what do I do to blacklist it? | 07:47 |
| indus | DavidJHeinrich, can i see output of this cat /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base | 07:47 |
| MilitantPotato1 | DavidJHeinrich: give me a few, I need to find the guide | 07:47 |
| indus | DavidJHeinrich, anyways, once you install asoundconf-gtk run it and select your device | 07:47 |

| DavidJHeinrich | indus: cat: /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base: No such file or directory | 07:47 |
| indus | DavidJHeinrich, nvm that ,just install asoundconf if available | 07:48 |
| Jordan_U | xjkx, That one option actually controls the pulseaudio volume meter, you can use "alsamixer -c 0" to access the hardware mixer directly | 07:48 |
| xjkx | Jordan_U: invalid card index: 0 | 07:48 |

| Agrajag- | g'day, i got a computer which had a windows xp hdd in it as the only hdd. i then put my ubuntu hdd in as the master and put the xp hdd as slave. i can boot into ubuntu fine - but how do i update grub to add the windows hdd? i have tried running update-grub but it doesn't add anything to do with the other hdd in /boot/grub/menu.lst | 07:49 |
| Jordan_U | xjkx, Did you ever actually log in as root? | 07:49 |
| indus | DavidJHeinrich, its there , i just tried, sudo apt-get install asoundconf-gtk | 07:49 |
| xjkx | Jordan_U: from my output: open("/dev/snd/controlC0", O_RDONLY) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) and open("/dev/aloadC0", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) should i do something about it ? | 07:49 |
| MilitantPotato1 | Agrajag-: Os-prober | 07:49 |
| xjkx | Jordan_U: not sure, maybe i did :P | 07:49 |
| indus | DavidJHeinrich, also try what MilitantPotato1 says | 07:50 |
| DavidJHeinrich | indus: I gert "You need to make sure asoundconf is active!" | 07:50 |
| MilitantPotato1 | Agrajag-: I believe your windows drive needs to be mounted | 07:50 |
| Jordan_U | xjkx, There is a reason why it is discouraged, as you may have just found out :) | 07:50 |
| indus | DavidJHeinrich, finished install? | 07:50 |
| MilitantPotato1 | DavidJHeinrich: if you blacklist snd_hda_intel, it will stop stealing priority from your sound card | 07:50 |
| Agrajag- | MilitantPotato1: i ran that, it found the xp drive - but that doesn't update grub does it? doesn't seem to have a man page | 07:50 |

| wre | Hi. Please join #windows Windows ... they say GIMP has less functionality than proprietary apps. Come there and say something please. | 07:51 |
| xjkx | Jordan_U: :s isn't there a way to fix it ? | 07:51 |
| MilitantPotato1 | Agrajag-: you run update-grub after os-prober finds it | 07:51 |
| bazhang | wre, that is offtopic here | 07:51 |
| wre | Hi. Please join #windows Windows ... they say GIMP has less functionality than proprietary apps. Come there and say something please. Okay? | 07:51 |
| DavidJHeinrich | MIlitantPotato1: so, I add the line "blacklist snd_hda_intel" to my /etc/modprobe.d file? | 07:51 |
| bazhang | wre, dont repeat | 07:51 |
| wre | sorry | 07:51 |
| wre | sorry | 07:51 |
| FloodBot2 | wre: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 07:51 |
| wre | you're welcome | 07:51 |
| MilitantPotato1 | DavidJHeinrich: yea, try running this echo blacklist snd_hda_intel | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 07:51 |
| Agrajag- | MilitantPotato1: hmm i reran update-grub after running os-prober but it still hasn't added it to menu.lst | 07:51 |
| MilitantPotato1 | DavidJHeinrich: then run cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | grep intel | 07:52 |
| MilitantPotato1 | DavidJHeinrich: to see if the change was made | 07:52 |
| MilitantPotato1 | DavidJHeinrich: if it has, reboot. | 07:52 |
| DavidJHeinrich | MilitantPotato1: ok, gonna reboot | 07:52 |

| MilitantPotato1 | Agrajag-: check grub.cfg | 07:53 |
| MilitantPotato1 | Agrajag-: menu.list is no longer used afaik | 07:53 |
| Agrajag- | MilitantPotato1: hmm maybe that's only on new 9.10 installs? i've done dist-upgrades since long ago | 07:54 |
| MilitantPotato1 | Agrajag-: probably, not sure if os-prober works with the old grub. Why not add windows manually? | 07:54 |
| Agrajag- | i don't have a grub.cfg | 07:54 |
| Agrajag- | yeah i'll just do that | 07:54 |

| nix-idioteque | good morning! | 07:58 |
| indus | DavidJHeinrich, try command lspci -vv and check what ut says for sound | 07:58 |

| chilli0 | bazhang, Well they can be exported and imported | 07:58 |
| mawst | I think the answer is still "no" but is there any way to convert from ntfs to ext4 without data loss? | 07:59 |
| chilli0 | So someone could make something that changes it. | 07:59 |

| DavidJHeinrich | indus: i'll give that a try, but remember that my mic input is working | 08:05 |

| Nom- | Hi all... i've got a 'development' package which performs a number of tasks, and I'm trying to set it up to provide the settings for ldap-auth-config so the install of that doesn't require any questions to be answered... this is obviously an internal package... does anyone know how I could acheive that? | 08:09 |
| ikonia | Nom-: depends how the settings are set, are they in a config file ? | 08:10 |
| DavidJHeinrich | I am cursed for sound...I got this sound-card because my on-board mic line-in wasn't working...now this $170 SC isn't working :-( arg | 08:10 |
| AzikaCorp | you can modify the post_install of the package | 08:11 |
| Nom- | ikonia: ldap-auth-config is a Ubuntu meta package to configure LDAP authentication for PAM/NSS. It's configuration is entered through debconf | 08:11 |
| ikonia | Nom-: sorry, I thought you said this was an internal package | 08:12 |
| MilitantPotato1 | DavidJHeinrich: is your user in the plugdev group? | 08:12 |
| Nom- | I've tried setting the values with debconf-set-selections, however installing ldap-auth-config appears to clobber them | 08:12 |
| Nom- | ikonia: I have a 'development' package wihch has ldap-auth-config as a dependency | 08:12 |
| ikonia | ah, I see | 08:12 |
| DavidJHeinrich | MilitantPotato1: yes, I'm in plugdev | 08:12 |
| Nom- | Sets up an NFS mount, some hosts entries, IPtables rules and a few ohter bits and pieces :) | 08:13 |
| ikonia | Nom-: curious, if you put the config files in place, does the deb-conf section overwrite them ? | 08:13 |
| wre | I was talking as if there are no advantages to windows over linux, which is far from the truth. Why? | 08:13 |
| bazhang | wre, that is offtopic here as I said before | 08:13 |
| bazhang | wre, #ubuntu-offtopic | 08:13 |

| DavidJHeinrich | from this article: http://techgage.com/article/using_the_asus_xonar_essence_stx_under_linux : "I recently tested out Ubuntu (9.04), to see if the Xonar was detected and installed, and sure enough, it was.

| DavidJHeinrich | (but THANK YOU VERY MUCH for your help so-far...It is nice to hear stuff...I got rid of static, although now sound is lower...it seems like my onboard produced less noiosy sound) | 08:33 |
| JoAnneOminous | ikonia: oh, I haven't tried that. | 08:34 |
| indus | DavidJHeinrich, any luck? | 08:34 |
| JoAnneOminous | I've just ejected things by using "eject" without the path/ | 08:34 |
| DavidJHeinrich | MilitantPotato1: i don't have an AC97 slider | 08:34 |
| ikonia | JoAnneOminous: I gave you a specific command to try - please use it | 08:34 |
| MilitantPotato1 | DavidJHeinrich: The hissing is from one of the sliders being too high, trial and error stuff. | 08:34 |
| DavidJHeinrich | ahh, maybe mic slider being up? | 08:35 |
| DavidJHeinrich | mic slider was all the way up | 08:35 |
| MilitantPotato1 | DavidJHeinrich: Ah there was an AC something slider for my creative card, caused heaps of hissing/static | 08:35 |
| DavidJHeinrich | I think it was hearing and playing back hiss from my hair or something (the mic is up on my head) | 08:35 |
| MilitantPotato1 | Different card, but was a guess | 08:35 |
| JoAnneOminous | ikonia: Okay....the sudo eject /dev/sr0 worked | 08:35 |
| MilitantPotato1 | DavidJHeinrich: well, glad it's workin now, enjoy | 08:35 |
| JoAnneOminous | (i.e.: it ejected.) | 08:35 |
| DavidJHeinrich | HURRAY! THank you SO MUCH! | 08:36 |
| ikonia | JoAnneOminous: ok, so it's the right device, that's good | 08:36 |
| ikonia | JoAnneOminous: problem is either the drive or the disc | 08:36 |
| JoAnneOminous | ikonia: I'm going to find the disk I burned earlier and see if it can read that... | 08:36 |
| JoAnneOminous | ikonia: it let me mount this one fine... | 08:38 |
| ikonia | JoAnneOminous: ok so the other disc is bad | 08:38 |
| ikonia | JoAnneOminous: at least you know now | 08:38 |
| JoAnneOminous | ikonia: This disk is a CDR, the other disk is a DVD-R...would that need to be mounted somewhere different than /dev/cdrom0? | 08:38 |
| ikonia | JoAnneOminous: no | 08:39 |
| JoAnneOminous | Drat. | 08:39 |
| JoAnneOminous | ikonia: Okay, thanks for your help. | 08:39 |
| ikonia | no problem | 08:39 |
| JoAnneOminous | This is the first time I've actually tried to mount a disk on this computer (instead of, you know, playing a DVD with vlc or somesuch) | 08:40 |

| perlmonkey | hi guys | 08:49 |
| rob_p | hi perlmonkey | 08:50 |
| plustax_ | Hey guys. I just got todays flash-plugin update and now stickam isnt working properly. Anybody knowledge-able about this sort of thing that can help me out? | 08:50 |
| perlmonkey | has anyone experienced any problems running network-manager either in general, or in combination with xfce4 and/or NFS? | 08:50 |
| almark | hello I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 I have had two crashes since I installed it 3 days ago, everything running smoothly and then all the sudden I have no access to my file system simply put I can't do type commands because the files aren't there tmp untill I fix the filesystem from another disto | 08:51 |
| almark | Is anyone familar with this problem? | 08:51 |
| kevin-zh_CN | monkey are you human? | 08:51 |
| mona_laprincipes | how can i configure wireless in ubuntu? | 08:52 |
| perlmonkey | my server is frequently going down several times a day, I've tried nearly everything I can think of.. it's driving me crazy! it gives a variety of symptoms (network failure/hard disk failure/bad filesystem etc) I've tried replacing each thing one by one, the drives, the router etc.. but still goes down. | 08:52 |
| almark | Perlmonkey_ you using Ubuntu 9.10? | 08:52 |
| perlmonkey | almark yes | 08:52 |
| almark | lol | 08:52 |
| perlmonkey | bad idea? | 08:52 |
| almark | perlmonkey well I don't feel so bad now, thought i was about ot have a hard drive crash | 08:53 |
| plustax_ | Probably should have went server edition | 08:53 |
| almark | perlmonkey I don't think so | 08:53 |
| perlmonkey | actually i'm not sure what im running how do I check? | 08:53 |
| Gnea | perlmonkey: are the syslog errors consistant? | 08:53 |
| almark | perlmonkey but I use it, right now i'm in Debian never crashed yet | 08:53 |
| perlmonkey | I thought I install LTS on my server | 08:53 |
| mneptok | perlmonkey / almark: run the system off a 9.10 LiveCD. if there are no crashes, it's something about your installed system, not 9.10 in general or hardware. | 08:53 |
| almark | perlmonkey its not like Linux to crash lol | 08:53 |
| perlmonkey | mneptok good idea | 08:54 |
| thegeekyhaxor | mona_laprincipies.. are you using a laptop? | 08:54 |
| perlmonkey | if that fails I'm seriously considering changing back to Debian for server OS I had no problems for years running that | 08:54 |
| * Gnea runs ubuntu server with no problems | 08:55 | |
| * mneptok as well | 08:55 | |
| perlmonkey | my setup is a little exotic tho as I use NFS to mount my /home | 08:55 |
| almark | mneptok_ nothing much I could think of that would cause it, but what happens is everything is running smoothly and then all the sudden I can't see the files in my term, I go to type a program and its just not there so I reboot and go into another disto and mount the drive ro and e2fs fix the file system, i'm worried is this going to ruin my drive if this keeps up? | 08:55 |
| perlmonkey | so i'm wondering if that is somehow bringing the server down | 08:55 |
| AzikaCorp | perlmonkey: what did you choose ubuntu instead of Debian | 08:55 |
| Gnea | perlmonkey: shouldn't mean much, but perhaps you missed my question... | 08:55 |
| perlmonkey | what's the best log to find a) general server failure errors b) boot-time errors | 08:55 |
| Gnea | /var/log/syslog and /var/log/dmesg | 08:56 |
| perlmonkey | thanks | 08:56 |
| almark | a hard drive crash isn't something I want to look foward to | 08:56 |
| perlmonkey | I had a ton of hard disk errors y'day removed the drive ran fsck over it and badblock check, came up fine, no errors or bad sectors | 08:57 |
| perlmonkey | put it back in system, failed again within a few hours | 08:57 |
| almark | perlmonkey_ you should like your having the same thing and when you go into another distro all fine right? | 08:57 |
| almark | sorry sound | 08:57 |
| perlmonkey | Gnea the errors are not consistent, it seems to be all different problems | 08:57 |
| Gnea | perlmonkey: using the same sata/ide cable? | 08:58 |
| almark | is 9.10 still in Beta stage by chance? | 08:58 |
| ikonia | almark: no | 08:58 |
| perlmonkey | sometimes I get no errors at all I can find..the server/network just locks up and goes down, the server won't boot after either without CTL+D | 08:58 |
| ikonia | almark: it's stable now | 08:58 |
| perlmonkey | yes | 08:58 |
| almark | I see | 08:58 |
| Gnea | perlmonkey: tried a different cable? | 08:58 |
| plustax_ | Hey guys. I just got todays flash-plugin update and now stickam isnt working properly. Anybody knowledge-able about this sort of thing that can help me out? | 08:59 |
| perlmonkey | not tried, but even when i removed that the drive+cable from server something else causes it too fail grrr.. this morning I woke up to server down again | 08:59 |
| almark | ikonia_ yesterday I figured out how to get grub2 to boot into my slave xp drive and it worked but.. after that I had no sound in windows and then took out th linux drive and all was fine so today I got rid of grub but the system crashed before that | 08:59 |
| perlmonkey | im just about to check logs | 08:59 |
| zak_ | http://kde-look.org/usermanager/search.php?username=zakoukou&action=contents | 09:00 |
| Gnea | perlmonkey: tried installing lm-sensors? perhaps a bad fan.. | 09:00 |
| perlmonkey | i should just say, this is a brand new server I built myself, dual core AMD motherboard, 2gb ram | 09:00 |
| Chris_DeSanto | Morning all | 09:00 |
| perlmonkey | Gnea thats the good thing the server box has temp lcd and good fans, it runs the fan a lot but cpu temp never seems to go over 24 degrees C | 09:01 |
| mokl | hi all | 09:01 |
| AzikaCorp | mokl: hi | 09:01 |
| Gnea | perlmonkey: hrm, perhaps you need to tweak some of the bios settings | 09:01 |
| perlmonkey | ok | 09:01 |
| almark | could someone pls tell me which log I should be looking at in my Ubuntu partition in var/log | 09:01 |
| emef | i recently resized my partitions, and now have a 25gb free partition that is formatted to ext3 that i would like to integrate into my linux filesystem (my current system is out of space but i do not want to reformat it) is there any way i can mount my new partition onto / ? | 09:01 |
| Gnea | perlmonkey: or boot the kernel with a different irq mapping technique, or switch on acpi | 09:01 |
| perlmonkey | yes | 09:01 |
| mokl | I wonder if somebody knows a webpage to get information about laptops that work well with ubuntu | 09:02 |
| perlmonkey | Gnea i did suspect the kernel, so I switched to server kernel | 09:02 |
| DJones | !hcl | mokl | 09:02 |
| ubottu | mokl: 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 | 09:02 |
| AzikaCorp | emef: use gparted, format the free partition and extend the one you want | 09:02 |
| mokl | thanks :) | 09:02 |
| Gnea | perlmonkey: not talking about the whole kernel image, but how it interacts with the hardware | 09:02 |
| jpsbhullar | With Ubuntu, I think every modern Laptop which is compatible with Windows Vista should work well | 09:02 |
| DJones | mokl: Have a look at ubottu's link, there's a laptop section that should help | 09:02 |
| perlmonkey | Gnea yes you could be right, I must say some of the dmesg output on boot looks a bit weirdish | 09:03 |
| ikonia | jpsbhullar: windows compatability is nothing to do with ubuntu compatibility, don't draw comparisions | 09:03 |
| perlmonkey | I will actually pastebin it and see if any of you guys agree | 09:03 |
| almark | I have a full sound server on the version of Ubuntu I'm using with rt kernel and I tweeked something to make the system work well with audio could that be the reason for the crashes | 09:03 |
| emef | AzikaCorp: i will try but i'm pretty sure that wasn't available when i formatted it | 09:03 |
| Gnea | perlmonkey: ok | 09:03 |
| jpsbhullar | Iknonia , Don't mind. I was Windows User. Now turned to Ubuntu | 09:03 |
| jpsbhullar | That's why I just gave the example | 09:03 |
| oinkoinkoink | omg im so lazy | 09:04 |
| jpsbhullar | I am not drawing any comparison | 09:04 |
| oinkoinkoink | And why flash player suck so much on Linux | 09:04 |
| jpsbhullar | I am sharing my experience as I have 5 machines including 3 laptops | 09:04 |
| oinkoinkoink | ok nuce | 09:04 |
| oinkoinkoink | nice | 09:04 |
| oinkoinkoink | Why so much machine | 09:04 |
| kevin-zh_CN | bye bye every one | 09:04 |
| jpsbhullar | all of them were having different configurations | 09:04 |
| Pierreb | anyone know where apache modules are in ubuntu? | 09:04 |
| jpsbhullar | But worked well with every machine | 09:04 |
| plustax_ | Hey guys. I just got todays flash-plugin update and now stickam isnt working properly. Anybody knowledge-able about this sort of thing that can help me out? | 09:05 |

| plustax_ | oinkoinkoink That's hardly relevant, eh? | 09:05 |
| bazhang | oinkoinkoink, that is not appropriate here. | 09:05 |
| AzikaCorp | almark: I think that I should work. format your free partiton | 09:05 |
| oinkoinkoink | Sorry sorry | 09:05 |
| bazhang | oinkoinkoink, did you have a support question or just wish to chat | 09:05 |
| oinkoinkoink | was hard to resist | 09:05 |
| jpsbhullar | Apache Modules will be in /etc/apache2 | 09:05 |

| plustax_ | Just to let you know, sir. | 09:06 |
| oinkoinkoink | Ahahaha | 09:06 |
| almark | AzikaCorp_ you mean I should reinstall on another partiton? | 09:06 |

| llutz | how can plustax_ know that /me has to switch cam off | 09:07 |
| almark | AzikaCorp_ I found some segfaults in my syslogs would that be the culprit | 09:07 |

| pedestrianentran | can anyone suggest a good program for basic inventory keeping? Im running Ubuntu and wish to keep track of some business hardware- serial numbers, location, broken/fixed/pending status and a few other things. My spreadsheet cant handle it any more as I have too much data and some of my searches are too difficult to do... I need a simple database | 09:07 |
| AzikaCorp | almark: no, you said that you have a free partition of 25 Gb | 09:07 |
| jpsbhullar | Can anyone suggest me good chatting client with Video Support for Yahoo | 09:08 |
| plustax_ | pedestrianentran: mysql and apache. learn it live it love it | 09:08 |
| almark | AzikaCorp_ I think you have me confused with someone lol | 09:08 |
| plustax_ | jpsbhullar: pidgin! | 09:08 |
| almark | AzikaCorp_ I have two drives but I certainly don't have any room with deleting one distro lol | 09:08 |
| almark | AzikaCorp_ I think I could remove another distro too | 09:09 |
| llutz | randy2009: ulimit | 09:09 |
| pedestrianentran | plustax_: well, i am open minded and like to learn but if you are suggesting writing a db app from scratch using php for web interface, thats probably overkill for my purpose. Surely there are simpler solutions? | 09:09 |

| BigMack83 | are there any apps that will burn mpg files to a dvd to use on a dvd player? i know i can use things like dvdauthor and mkisofs but each post i find tells a different way to do it and it all depends on the screen ratio and whatnot. i was hoping there was an easier way. | 09:12 |

| almark | Where can i go to find out why my Ubuntu 9.10 crashed, i'm clueless here lol this is a new one for me | 09:15 |
| almark | 2 times to too many | 09:15 |
| dpac_ | Hey guys, I've a problem here. I've updated several times but my update-manager still says "last updated 25days ago". | 09:15 |
| llutz | perlmonkey: you have had a unclean shutdown before? | 09:16 |
| xfact | almark, Here is the right place, and please define what kind of crash... | 09:16 |
| iflema | almark could be bad hardware, bad software, and/or bad habbits. does hat help :) | 09:17 |
| perlmonkey | llutz yes | 09:17 |
| almark | xfact_ all I can say is I was using the system just fine running Jack programs and I go to type something in term and that program ins't there, its like the system can't see the files but they are there and it tells me segfaults so I reboot and fix the fs system from another distro and everything appears intact still | 09:18 |
| xfact | iflema, Most of the time bad habbits! right | 09:18 |
| Fjodor | Any ideas as to why I don't have any icons on my desktop with karmic? | 09:18 |
| iflema | UHHUUUHH! | 09:18 |
| llutz | perlmonkey: any files in Lost&Found? | 09:18 |
| xfact | almark, Bad habit! | 09:18 |
| almark | xfact_ what is lol | 09:19 |
| xfact | almark, You should have asked to us before doing all this! | 09:19 |
| perlmonkey | llutz no | 09:19 |
| inthevidual | What file (if any) can I edit in order to set the default groups for all new users on a system? | 09:19 |
| llutz | perlmonkey: so all seems to be fine then | 09:19 |
| perlmonkey | ok thanks llutz | 09:19 |
| almark | xfact_ reading does me well and then when I get stumped I ask go ol IRC :) | 09:19 |
| llutz | inthevidual: /etc/adduser.conf | 09:20 |
| mawst | I, by accident added root to samba now it's giving me an error when I try to remove. http://pastebin.com/m6f5ab51b | 09:20 |
| inthevidual | llutz: many thanks :) | 09:20 |
| mawst | Disabling that user worked, but not deleting. | 09:20 |
| mawst | :/ | 09:20 |
| xfact | almark, Actually from which 'another disto' you used to fix your problem? | 09:21 |
| almark | xfact_ I'm seriously afraid to use the Ubuntu I have installed again, I don't want to lose a hard drive because of this so I need to know how to fix it but dont know where to begin I have a few logs but dont' know which | 09:21 |
| almark | xfact_ Debian | 09:21 |
| Chris_DeSanto | A question for you guys ... I am just starting to use Ubuntu. Are these programs available for it and if not which do you use instead ? uTorrent, Skype, VLC | 09:22 |
| perlmonkey | llutz: http://pastebin.com/d5016e3b4 <-- this could be the cause of server downtime this morning, a possible server attack? those repeated ftp login attempts continued for 3-4 hours non-stop | 09:22 |
| iceroot | Chris_DeSanto: skype and vlc are available | 09:22 |
| xfact | almark, You should use the same disto to fix it (reinstalling helps), and do not worry maximum you will have to reinstall again, but no chance for hardware fault :) | 09:22 |
| iceroot | !info utorrent | 09:22 |
| ubottu | Package utorrent does not exist in karmic | 09:22 |
| iceroot | Chris_DeSanto: for torrent you can you "transmission" | 09:23 |
| DJones | Chris_DeSanto: Skype & VLC are available for Ubuntu, instead of uTorrent, I use transmission | 09:23 |
| DJones | !skype | Chris_DeSanto | 09:23 |
| ubottu | Chris_DeSanto: To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto - Please use open protocols instead if you can, see !Ekiga | 09:23 |
| Chris_DeSanto | Thanks guys :P I will check out transmission ... is it plug and play or will I need to adjust ports or settings in Ubuntu ? | 09:23 |
| almark | xfact_ I'm thinking all of this is because first off I have a linux audio type distro and that Isn't the problem but what I did to to was fine tune it with a Qjack script that checks to see what needs to be tweeked so maybe I over taxed the system with my limits being unlimted | 09:23 |
| almark | xfact_ honestly I really don't want to reinstall it took me days to get my jackd working smoothly and for the very first time im actualy proud of a Linux audio system so this is well disappointing | 09:24 |
| iflema | almark do u use ppa's, can be bad in combination with what ever.... its hard to say. if ya stick to the standard repos and dont have bad hardware all will be good basically..... software development well its the nature of the beast.... stick the standard repos and use compatible hardware. this is open source.... the best as far as im concerned... which i know aint far... | 09:25 |
| iceroot | Chris_DeSanto: not on ubuntu but maybe in your router | 09:25 |
| perlmonkey | why would my router be putting it's own IP in place of internet IP's in my logs? | 09:25 |
| perlmonkey | this is very annoying | 09:25 |
| xfact | almark, When you are not expert in Linux section then you should not experiment with it like this, I am also a biggner so I cannot help you about this critical problem, ask someone else or I recommend to reinstall, you will not lose any files | 09:26 |
| Chris_DeSanto | okay thanks Iceroot that I can handle :P | 09:26 |
| oinkoinkoink | I want to name my cat ubuntu but my girlfriend doesnt want | 09:26 |
| oinkoinkoink | How can i convice her | 09:26 |

| ubottu | oinkoinkoink: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 09:26 |
| almark | xfact_ Thanks for the help though :) | 09:26 |
| perlmonkey | call the cat "bunti" = compromise | 09:26 |
| fastlane | Hi there, I have Ubuntu 9.1 and would like to install a HP 722c printer. Does anyone know how to do that? HPLIP isn't working for that one... | 09:26 |
| oinkoinkoink | Thats a really cool name | 09:26 |
| almark | iflema_ What is ppa if you don't mind my asking? | 09:26 |
| perlmonkey | :D | 09:26 |
| iceroot | !ppa | almark | 09:27 |
| ubottu | almark: With Launchpad's Personal Package Archives (PPA), you can build and publish binary Ubuntu packages for multiple architectures simply by uploading an Ubuntu source package to Launchpad. See https://help.launchpad.net/PPAQuickStart. | 09:27 |
| almark | iflema_ hmm I dont' think I use those | 09:27 |
| perlmonkey | well i can't solve this problem but I think a new router is called for | 09:27 |
| almark | iflema_ the could setting limits to high cause a crash I have them set to unlimited, its all from the linux audio page | 09:28 |

| fastlane | Hi... :) still wondering how I can install a HP 722c printer on Ubuntu 9.1. Does anyone know how to do that? HPLIP isn't working for that one... | 09:31 |
| mbhagya | 2.6.31-19 | 09:31 |
| almark | iflema_ I don't know why they would disable it, its a Distro with Ubuntu 9.10 its called pure:dyne | 09:31 |
| almark | iflema_ in apt-get if a package doesnt' have a key on the system you have to find one, wel in pure:dyne all that is disable so you don't have to go looking for a key | 09:31 |
| iflema | almark if you have added extra repos or use an ubuntu derivative... well.... good luck.. | 09:32 |
| almark | iflema_ I also downgraded grub2 and made it grub again which worked much better for me | 09:32 |
| almark | iflema_ it was doing all this before I started to dive in with the system which is weird so I was thinkinng maybe I have a beta version but I dont' want to crash my hard drive | 09:33 |
| CodeWar | just installed 9.10 x86_64 after taking otu the CD and rebooting my cdrom drive doesnt work I get this message ==> "DBus error org.gtk.Private.RemoteVolumeMonitor.Failed:An operation is already pending" | 09:33 |
| CodeWar | the general recommendation on teh web is to delete /media/.hal-xxx file .. there are no such files in that directory | 09:34 |

| fastlane | Hello, can anyone offer info on how to install a HP 722c printer in Ubuntu please? | 09:34 |
| almark | iflema_ do you know what it means when all the sudden you can't use a program when you type the name in term, because that is exactly what happened its happened twice | 09:34 |
| indus | mbhagya, mine is at 17 how come | 09:34 |
| brand0n | fastlane printers should all be plug and play | 09:34 |
| indus | its uptode as of yesterday | 09:34 |
| brand0n | if you gotta configure it, it propably isnt supported | 09:35 |
| almark | iflema_ and I would type /etc/ and nothing would be there /boot and nothing would be there but things were indeed there its like the file server became unusable until a reboot or file system fix | 09:35 |

| almark | iflema_ that I don't know but the packages come from Ubuntu and pure:dyne too | 09:37 |
| almark | iflema_ you want to see my sources.list? | 09:37 |
| mbhagya | indus: umm.. all i can say is, check the list of repositories... sources.list once... it might be referring to repositories which aren't updated | 09:37 |
| iflema | almark your problem is puredyn. full stop. | 09:37 |

| llutz | almark: i already told you a few days ago: blame puredyn (whatever it is) for your problems, it's not supported here | 09:38 |
| almark | inflema_ could I have done this by setting up my audio to use less lantency? | 09:38 |
| almark | well ok then if a person set limits too high or tried to tweek their Ubuntu system with less lantency in audio would that cause problems? | 09:39 |

| Solvemon | Hello guys, I'm having some problems here. I am completely new to linux (about half an hour), so please forgive my noobness. I have a complete new Ubuntu installation, and it looks very good. I have two 22" monitors connected, and the desktop is cloned (mirrored?) on both. However, I'd like it to be extended, side by side. When I try to change this setting under System->Preferences->Display both the screens go black and the computer | 09:41 |
| bazhang | !xrandr | Solvemon | 09:42 |
| ubottu | Solvemon: XRandR 1.2 is the new method of running dual screens in !X. Information/HowTo here: http://wiki.debian.org/XStrikeForce/HowToRandR12 | 09:42 |
| xfact | almark, Are you talking about http://puredyne.goto10.org/? anybody still uses this kind of OS...:+ | 09:42 |
| llutz | Solvemon: if you're using nvidia-graphics, use nvidia-settings to setup | 09:42 |
| HoudiniMan | Solvemon, again if you're using nvidia, look for "TwinView" - not sure if that's in other settings apps | 09:43 |
| Solvemon | it is running on intel-based cards. one is an AGP card, and the other an integrated card on the motherboard. I am afraid I don't know the exact model of these, but it is an Dell Optiplex GX620 | 09:43 |
| bassliner | Solvemon: are you running a computer with an nvidia graphics card? | 09:43 |
| bassliner | ah | 09:43 |
| bassliner | Solvemon: HoudiniMan just pointed it out. if you're running a computer with an nvidia graphics card, maybe trying the hard way to configure it directly in xorg.conf is what you want to do. | 09:44 |
| Solvemon | but they arent nvidia cards | 09:44 |

| almark | iflema_yes thats the site | 09:47 |
| Solvemon | Thank you, looking at the webpage now | 09:47 |
| yacc | Jordan_U, yep. | 09:47 |
| Jordan_U | yacc, If so I am very curious how. | 09:47 |
| llutz | Solvemon: i'm not sure, intel has been limited to 2048x2048 desktop-size, which made xinerama nearly unusable | 09:47 |

| JosephDeFazio | Hello everyone | 09:49 |
| Chris_DeSanto | indus: Depends on what you want to do. Usually its more than enough unless you plan on downloading / holding lots of music and videos | 09:50 |
| indus | Chris_DeSanto, movies yes but mostly games i see are taking so much space today | 09:50 |
| Chris_DeSanto | indus: for example I have about 70 gigs of music ... and I assume I am a bit below the average of most people | 09:50 |
| indus | but i was planning to record some tv movies | 09:50 |
| indus | from tv tuner card | 09:51 |
| almark | iflema_ The install came a pure:dyne live cd but I wanted a full install and that to came from it you can install the system with the installer inside xfce maybe its a bad installer I might try Ubuntu Studio again | 09:51 |
| Chris_DeSanto | indus: games usually use less than 10gigs each .... MMOs tend to use more than this | 09:51 |

| kristof78 | hi, I'm trying to use rsync to sync my /var/cache/apt/archives/ over ssh to another pc, but the result is a dry run. I think I'm running the wrong command line | 11:24 |
| mister_roboto | ARishi: it's supposed to be. i've switched back and forth on one of my machines | 11:24 |
| mister_roboto | ARishi: if you have the disk space, you don't even need to uninstall any gnome stuff. you can have both installed and choose which kind of session at login | 11:25 |
| pest | iflema: the laptop monitor is working it`s just that the glass is broken,it`s not detached or something...i just can`t see anything on it | 11:25 |
| kristof78 | sudo rsync -vcn /var/cache/apt/archives user@ip:/var/cache/apt/archives/ | 11:25 |
| kristof78 | help | 11:25 |

| jotik | how do I install an old version of ghc in lucid? | 11:27 |
| mister_roboto | kristof78: then why are you questioning about doing a dry run? that's what you specified to do | 11:27 |
| iflema | pest arghhh.... i cant remember how that one works.... its been a while.... ill have a google | 11:27 |
| lsdluna | is there anyone here with experience of installing open xchange on ubuntu who is able to help me? | 11:28 |
| kristof78 | if you do a dry run and you get 0 does it mean that all files are synchronised? | 11:28 |
| kristof78 | I'm sure they are not | 11:28 |
| pest | iflema: i have done this before but on 19` connected the same way but it was long time ago :( | 11:29 |
| pest | i guess i`ll have to stick with the small resolution and mirrored screens :( | 11:29 |
| mister_roboto | kristof78: a dry run does not actually copy anything at all. so no, they will not be synchronized unless you do it for real | 11:29 |

| jackbrown | obscurant1st my audio isn't working anymore | 11:46 |
| DJones | jackbrown: It might be that there's nobody who knows the answer to your question at the minute, its normally worth waiting 30 minutes and then asking your question again so that the users in the channel have time to change | 11:46 |
| koltroll | oh wait I think I found something. It says "Failed to load module "fglrx" (module does not exists)" | 11:47 |
| zamanian | I haven't used apt-get in aeons. Does apt-get now also remove dependencies to packages when removing packages, like aptitude, or does it leave them be? | 11:47 |
| koltroll | Is that perhaps because when at the live-cd, before installing, I pressed "activate other module" and it downloaded something. | 11:47 |
| alex1 | I just created a diagram of the Invest-Applet in gnome-applets | 11:47 |

| perpetualrabbit | Nevermind. The ubuntu developers in their infinite wisdom have decided to replace dhcpcd with dhcp3-client, sometime ago. Dhcp3-client does not have the option to let the dhcp server set all the hostnames for a large number of clients in a network. Ubuntu is clearly not made for networks of workstations. I lost count of all the adaptations I have to make to get Ubuntu in a usable state in a network. | 12:35 |

| indus | Explore1, dmesg is a good option otherwise for that | 13:14 |
| perpetualrabbit | SpaceGhostC2C, as a corollary, why do the devs change these things and make it difficult for sysadmins like me. Another example involves the hardships of having to remove UUID from /etc/fstab, /etc/grub.d/*, /boot/grub/grub.cfg/ and the initrd file. As a sysadmin I want to be able to install a singe image to many clients and the UUID will be wrong. | 13:15 |

| rambo2_981 | progre55, httpd.conf is probably in /etc/conf/httpd.conf; the php.conf file is "usually" in /etc/conf.d and "usually" only one command is needed in httpd.conf; Include conf.d/*.conf | 13:58 |
| csaba | thanks | 13:58 |
| nmvictor | Tresmius: remember to keep the first kernel version, the one you want to remove in mind so that you can replace its value appropiately | 13:58 |
| rambo2_981 | progre55, so stick the Include in your httpd.conf, and as long as the php module conf is there you're good | 13:59 |

| Gibby | I am having some issues with 9.10 64bit, and before I do a reinstall I figured I would stop in to see if anybody can help, anyone up for it? | 14:04 |
| demonspork | !ask |gibby | 14:04 |
| ubottu | gibby: 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. :-) | 14:04 |
| demonspork | a lot of us are running 64bit | 14:05 |
| demonspork | including me | 14:05 |
| perlmonkey | Gibby what is the problem you need to ask specific questions | 14:05 |
| perlmonkey | I'm runing 64bit 9.10 and also experiencing lots of problems | 14:05 |
| nmvictor | So you rebooted and it printed that? or you read that from the file? | 14:05 |
| Gibby | 1st problem, everytime I reboot, my sound is muted and the volume control is not being shown on the top panel | 14:05 |
| nmvictor | Tresmius: So you rebooted and it printed that? or you read that from the file? | 14:05 |
| demonspork | Gibby, I have never had that issue | 14:06 |
| Gibby | I found some stuff about it on the forums, however none of it worked..... | 14:06 |
| rambo2_981 | Gibby, sound and video are the two biggest problems; i fight with nvidia every d@m major release | 14:06 |
| demonspork | Gibby, you know what, just for you I will reboot | 14:06 |
| demonspork | my uptime is like 3 weeks now | 14:07 |
| demonspork | so I don't know if there are any issues with boot up | 14:07 |
| nmvictor | Tresmius: the file has already been generated, so editing it at this point wont harm anything, try its first, if it fails, revert the changes | 14:07 |
| egonw | how can I update the group information for an account without having to relogin? | 14:07 |
| rambo2_981 | demonspork, what if it doesn't reboot? how will we ever know? :) | 14:07 |
| kubanc | anybody knows why do i have the command ethtool eth0: Settings for eth0: No data available | 14:07 |
| aisy | hi | 14:07 |
| Tresmius | nmvictor: ok | 14:07 |
| coz_ | Gibby, sound is working now right? | 14:07 |
| Gibby | rambo2_981, Nvidia is killing me right now too, i have to reboot every 30minutes when playing flightgear, tried the options file in /etc/modprobe.d and setting the overclock neither worked | 14:07 |
| Gibby | coz_, yes, as long as i go into system/preferences/sound and unmute it and turn the volume up | 14:08 |
| demonspork | rambo2_981, I will load *gasp* windows and report in | 14:08 |
| perlmonkey | Gibby I have the same problem with muted sound (nvidia onboard sound) | 14:08 |
| rambo2_981 | Gibby, well if nvidia would ever gpl their drivers this would all go away | 14:08 |
| perlmonkey | Gibby I found a solution (to get sound) but it does not stop it happening each time I reboot | 14:08 |
| csaba | I've edited /etc/sudoers so that I wouldn't have to enter password for sudo, but it doesn't work: csaba ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL | 14:08 |
| demonspork | rambo2_981, what nvidia drivers are you using? | 14:08 |
| csaba | this same thing works on another computer | 14:08 |
| lnb | how can i find out what is preventing /tmp/* from being deleted on reboot | 14:08 |
| perlmonkey | I'm thinking it's a driver issue, i.e. lack of support in kernel | 14:09 |
| Gibby | my sound is not onboard, it is sound blaster pci card... and it didn't used to do it | 14:09 |
| csaba | it always keeps asking me for the password | 14:09 |
| perlmonkey | strange | 14:09 |
| lnb | i have looked at and edited /etc/default/rcS so that TMPTIME=2 but nothing gets deleted | 14:09 |
| perlmonkey | Gibby are you able to get sound by adjusting manually after boot? | 14:09 |
| coz_ | Gibby, did you run the alsa script and repot that in #alsa by any chance? | 14:10 |
| Gibby | coz_, no... what is that..... | 14:10 |
| rambo2_981 | demonspork, the latest from nvidia's site; the recipe is: 1) update to major release, 2) curse (again) when X won't run, 3) get into text mode, 4) wget the latest nvidia driver found on my Windows machine IE (cough), 5) install, 6) reconfigure X with dpkg, 7) reboot, 8) mess with settings and pull my old xorg.conf file that works | 14:10 |
| coz_ | Gibby, http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=4eeebe19303da090dddd48a264ffd7558049b24a run that script | 14:10 |
| lnb | changed /etc/init.d/sysklogd and added rm -fr /tmp/* /tmp/.??* to stop) and this doesn't help either | 14:11 |
| karlheg | egow, that's not possible yet for any applications not using authkit and consolekit... those subsystems are meant to address that problem. | 14:11 |
| perlmonkey | this solution brings sound back: | 14:11 |
| Gibby | coz_, that is for 32bit, I am 64 | 14:11 |
| pavelz | What app controls sound via media buttons? It seems to crash. I have MSPro keyboard and everytime my mouse in second screen it seems to reset my window manager theme to default one (gray)... so I need to find what app is responsible for volume control in 9.10 | 14:11 |
| coz_ | Gibby, ooo well go to #alsa channel I am sure they might have one | 14:11 |
| Cisco78 | salve | 14:12 |
| Gibby | coz_, will try that, but my most annoying problem is some videos will play in firefox, while others will not.... | 14:12 |
| Mokli | hi | 14:12 |
| perlmonkey | sudo alsa force-reload should bring up KDE Control Module and allow settings for sound to be adjusted. Changing to "Playback/Recording through Pulse Audio" fixes it for me | 14:12 |
| demonspork | gibby, are you using 32bit firefox? | 14:12 |
| perlmonkey | I only wish I knew how to make this setting "sticky" so its set as default | 14:12 |
| rambo2_981 | egonw, i am fighting changes to twisted web apps trying to get single sign-on to work; it is somewhat related to your question | 14:12 |
| Mokli | what? | 14:12 |
| Gibby | demonspork, nope 64 | 14:12 |
| volkansah | #ubuntu-tr | 14:13 |
| demonspork | Gibby, install 32bit firefox unless you intend to use more than 3GB of memory with firefox alone. That and 32bit flash make things a lot easier | 14:13 |
| perlmonkey | Gibby: then start up "Mixer" from your Multimedia folder on Start button and change the device to "Playback/Recording through PulseAudio Mixer" | 14:13 |
| Mokli | i think, my irc client does not works, please give me a message when you became my message! | 14:13 |
| perlmonkey | sound will return as normal | 14:13 |

| iceroot | rambo2_981: oh that sounds bad | 14:15 |
| iceroot | rambo2_981: maybe there was a way with chroot and backup | 14:16 |
| nmvictor | Tresmius: is it on the same system you are working on or YOU ARE ON A LIVE Cd? | 14:16 |
| Mokli | @peter_matulla: dieser irc ist wie du siehst englisch, da kannst du mit deinem deutsch ni viel anfangen... | 14:16 |

| Tresmius | nmvictor: It's on the same root I'm on | 14:19 |
| rambo2_981 | iceroot, i am skinnying down my approach; i am seeing if i can just use apache .htpasswd and have all the twistd web apps use that. i bailed on oauth and openid. the twisted guys said they tried to make it work with integrated in twistd and failed | 14:19 |

| perlmonkey | ognjen usually you will need to recycle (power on/off) the cable modem to set the mac address for your network card for the connection to work | 14:35 |
| perlmonkey | ognjen: also you may need to bring down and up your network card interface like: sudo ifdown eth0 sudo ifup eth0 or you can just restart networking sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 14:36 |

This could easily be a misconfiguration of the kernel but I'm not sure what to look at. lxfb is the only frame buffer driver compiled, could something else be getting in the way?

| perlmonkey | Pianoman13 when you plug in the adaptor check dmesg and see whether Linux sees and supports the card | 15:09 |
| perlmonkey | thats the first step | 15:09 |
| zamanian | This is hilarious | 15:09 |
| sithx | any other ways of setting-up inet on ubuntu 9.10, other then 'sudo pppoeconf' ? | 15:09 |
| perlmonkey | Pianoman13 can you pastebin them | 15:09 |
| iceroot | Simon1245: cp myfile ebooks/myfile that is creating a copy of myfile in the directoy ebooks | 15:10 |
| Pianoman13 | perlmonkey, yes i will pastebin | 15:10 |
| WEXFORDMAN | Blueskaj, i have libdvdcss in stalled, is libdvdcss2 different to this ? | 15:11 |
| BluesKaj | WEXFORDMAN, yes , which ubuntu version are you running | 15:11 |
| WEXFORDMAN | 9.10 | 15:12 |
| Simon1245 | iceroot, Ok thanks | 15:12 |
| BluesKaj | libdvdcss2 is the upgraded version | 15:12 |
| iceroot | Simon1245: also see man cp | 15:12 |
| Simon1245 | I did | 15:12 |
| Simon1245 | It was so long :D | 15:12 |
| iceroot | Simon1245: doesnt matter but its the manual | 15:12 |
| WEXFORDMAN | Cool, how do I get libdvdcss2, i dont see it in the software centre | 15:12 |
| Simon1245 | iceroot, True :D | 15:13 |
| Pianoman13 | perlmonkey, am having a problem with the terminal window | 15:13 |
| Pianoman13 | perlmonkey, it does not scroll and it does not respond to the enter key, so i cannot select all the text | 15:14 |
| === lilsweetgirl is now known as newbie | ||
| dabaR | sithx: pppoeconf is for DSL. | 15:14 |
| BluesKaj | WEXFORDMAN, I asked earlier if you installed ubuntu-restricted-extras , don't you have own nick highlight turned on ? >Seems you are missing alot of suggestions here> | 15:14 |
| lsdluna | im new to ubuntu, new to linux, i need a collaborational tool which I can setup very easily or a guide that doesnt assume that i have years and years of experience, just looking for something simple with version control, version comparing and maybe even a simple group calender facility, what suggestions do you have? | 15:14 |
| perlmonkey | Pianoman13 use | more | 15:14 |
| airco | how do i zip an entire directory including all subdirs in terminal? | 15:14 |
| === newbie is now known as new_linuxy | ||
| iceroot | lsdluna: google wave | 15:14 |
| perlmonkey | like tail -100 /var/log/dmesg | more | 15:14 |
| Vge | airco: tar czvf file.tar.gz folder | 15:15 |
| lsdluna | iceroot: i have a google wave account - but i cant see the calender facility, nor do i see a place to even upload a file? | 15:15 |
| airco | thanks Vge | 15:15 |
| erUSUL | airco: tar cvzf dir.tgz directory/ | 15:15 |
| nizuri | i installed openssh over apt, now i wan't to update by compiling the source. do i have to remove the old binaries, or does make do that for me? | 15:15 |
| iceroot | lsdluna: maybe have a look at "alfresco" its a tomcat-application | 15:15 |
| Vge | czvf is the only way to write it!! ;) | 15:15 |
| Pianoman13 | perlmonkey, the terminal window is scrollable with the mouse but the scroll bar is not operational | 15:15 |
| iceroot | lsdluna: its coming with an gui-installer but its not in the repos so download from there website | 15:16 |
| perlmonkey | oh | 15:16 |
| === DaZ_ is now known as DaZ | ||
| lsdluna | iceroot: will pay a bit more attention this time, i think i've come across that before, back in 5mins | 15:16 |
| iceroot | nizuri: make dont do that for you | 15:16 |
| cilkay | nizuri: Why do you need to update OpenSSH? | 15:16 |
| Pianoman13 | perlmonkey, even if i do a ctrl c the terminal seems frozen at END | 15:16 |
| dabaR | nizuri: you should uninstall. | 15:16 |
| perlmonkey | just open another terminal and kill the process | 15:17 |
| sithx | i see. I need to setup the inet for adsl (lan) | 15:17 |
| lsdluna | iceroot: hmm there's only a 30 day trial one? | 15:17 |
| perlmonkey | can anyone tell me the name of that handy little utility which generates pastebin urls from logs? | 15:18 |
| Vge | is someone here using Geany with KDE and SFTP? | 15:18 |
| perlmonkey | initpastebin or something like that | 15:18 |
| nizuri | cilkay: because the version i have does not log if someone tries to connect with a valid username but an invalid keypair | 15:18 |
| nexus | hi all | 15:18 |
| nexus | i want to reinstall ubuntu 9.10 on my pc, Is it possible to keep the currently downloaded packages from repositories, so that i can install them back quickly on the new setup ? | 15:18 |
| Myrtti | perlmonkey: pastebinit | 15:19 |
| Pianoman13 | perlmonkey, i am sorry, this is the 3rd terminal window that i open and they all did the same behavior maybe i should logg off and back on again | 15:19 |
| nizuri | cilkay: and i was hoping, maybe they fixed that | 15:19 |
| perlmonkey | Myrtti thanks | 15:19 |

| cilkay | nizuri: Which version of Ubuntu? | 15:19 |
| nizuri | karmic | 15:19 |
| Pianoman13 | i am copying the command lspci -v | less in the terminal | 15:19 |
| perlmonkey | ok | 15:19 |
| perlmonkey | why do you need to use the scroll bar? just press enter to scroll down | 15:20 |
| Pianoman13 | perlmonkey, i just reinitialized the terminal but all i am getting now is the word END | 15:20 |
| nexus | erUSUL, i want to create an iso image and dont want to write them on the CD or DVD is that possible somehow? | 15:20 |
| dabaR | Pianoman13: hit q | 15:21 |
| sithx | dabar: should i set the.. System → Administration → Networking stuff first? | 15:21 |
| inveratulo | nexus, mkisofs | 15:21 |
| erUSUL | nexus: you can just tar up the packages from /var/cache/apt/archives/ | 15:21 |
| dabaR | Pianoman13: I mean, that would be the obvious solution, unless it is really frozen... | 15:21 |
| Tresmius | nexus: http://keryxproject.org/ allows you to use usb storage | 15:21 |
| dabaR | sithx: no, not really. Do you have a DSL modem? | 15:21 |
| nizuri | cilkay: karmic and openssh is 5.1p1 | 15:21 |
| Pianoman13 | perlmonkey, it worked but everything disappeared from the terminal window | 15:22 |
| nexus | and then untar them in the same folder after installing the fresh copy? will that work ? | 15:22 |
| erUSUL | nexus: yes | 15:22 |
| perlmonkey | Pianoman13 you could install pastebinit | 15:22 |
| sithx | yes, it says adsl modem :\ | 15:22 |
| dabaR | sithx: that is it, ya. | 15:22 |
| === rene is now known as Guest71555 | ||
| perlmonkey | and then run your command | pastebinit | 15:22 |
| Pianoman13 | perlmonkey, how? | 15:22 |
| perlmonkey | sudo apt-get install pastebinit | 15:22 |
| dabaR | sithx: do you know your username and password for the ISP? | 15:23 |
| sithx | dabar: yes i do | 15:23 |
| dabaR | sithx: and you tried using pppoeconf? | 15:23 |
| sithx | dabar: yes, i did try it, it said no device found | 15:23 |
| inveratulo | perlmonkey: pastebinit is awesome | 15:23 |
| cilkay | nizuri: I don't know what "Karmic" is. I never went past Hardy. Is that 9.04? If so, perhaps you can install the OpenSSH package from a newer version and pin just that package. If you must build your own OpenSSH, you could always build a .deb and install that. | 15:24 |
| dabaR | sithx: and you have it connected? | 15:24 |
| perlmonkey | it is | 15:24 |
| inveratulo | whoever wrote that deserves a medal | 15:24 |
| DefineByte | anyone know how to configure the kernel to support a console frame buffer? | 15:24 |
| nizuri | cilkay: karmic koala is 9.10 | 15:24 |
| dabaR | inveratulo: ya, cause medals are super useful :-P | 15:24 |
| nexus | erUSUL, second thing i wanted to ask is to creat a download script of the installed packages, that i can run on any other computer where i can do only wget to get files from the internet. My objective is to download the packages on my office machine and then take them home | 15:24 |
| dabaR | inveratulo: I guess you meant it as a figure of speech | 15:24 |

| erUSUL | nexus: i think synaptic can generate download scripts.... | 15:25 |
| dabaR | sithx: and what is the make and model of the adsl modem? | 15:25 |
| Pianoman13 | perlmonkey, wow that is so efficient, let me copy this to a note | 15:25 |
| inveratulo | dabaR: okay, then some "metal" or perhaps excellent mettle | 15:25 |
| iceroot | lsdluna: no, there is also a community-edition | 15:26 |
| erUSUL | nexus: never used it so i dunno how well it works | 15:26 |
| nizuri | cilkay: thanks :) | 15:26 |
| perlmonkey | Pianoman13 it looks like your device is supported | 15:26 |
| nexus | i tried doing this, but it generated the download script only for the packages which are selected for update, it does not include the preinstalled packages in the download script | 15:26 |
| sithx | its a 'Billion ADSL modem'. It came with my Inet plan from ISP. | 15:26 |

| Simon1245 | indus, When ever I feel for it :D | 15:31 |
| dabaR | sithx: and it seems that all their adsl modems are modem/router combos, meaning that you will not use pppoeconf on your computer. | 15:32 |
| Simon1245 | indus, Joking, I had school today It ended 3 Pm | 15:32 |

| Pianoman13 | perlmonkey, my router is functional in vista but not in ubuntu | 15:32 |
| iceroot | Simon1245: ah ok | 15:32 |
| perlmonkey | Pianoman13 have you configured the settings on your device in Linux | 15:33 |
| crazycool | could somebody tell me how can I start my ubuntu in text mode | 15:33 |
| Pianoman13 | perlmonkey, but i feel you are right i might have to redo this here in my new ubuntu environment | 15:33 |

| perlmonkey | it's not terribly complicated just a bit fiddly, you will need to go through the howto step by step | 15:34 |
| iceroot | Simon1245: you can search in a manpage with /searchstring | 15:34 |
| iceroot | Simon1245: and then enter | 15:34 |
| perlmonkey | keep checking your log (dmesg) if it doesn't work for answers | 15:34 |

| crazycool | i have changed runlevel and it doesn't work | 15:34 |
| Simon1245 | iceroot, Ok one minute | 15:34 |
| dabaR | sithx: They certainly don't advertise the existence of that device on their site. Is it branded with your ISPs logo? | 15:34 |
| racha | Can anyone please help me with 5.1 ? | 15:35 |
| inveratulo | Simon1245: cp -a means that it copies the files, but changes nothing like atimes, permissions etc | 15:35 |
| Simon1245 | iceroot, Worked :D | 15:35 |
| sithx | dabar: yup | 15:35 |
| iceroot | Simon1245: yes, makes manpages much smaller if you can search in them :) | 15:35 |

| finiras2 | genii not sure, just img files that i normally use in windows with daemon tools or winrar | 16:01 |
| genii | finiras2: Sounds like ISO images of a CD or so | 16:02 |

| HackeMate | erUSUL: yes it should, but I try to connect to a university wifi and it's becoming too complicated, I read the wpa_supplicant's debug and seems a problem with SSL, that reading forums talking about driver. If I try with networkmanager that uses the ath9k driver, works, so I wanted to experiment this way | 16:17 |
| iceroot | Guest22920: or use nano, i think its easier for you | 16:17 |
| Guest22920 | that worked! | 16:17 |

| ikonia | Roasted: I've run it on 3 dev boxes | 16:18 |
| ikonia | Roasted: not the best / cleanest setup | 16:18 |
| Guest22920 | what does that mean? esc and then? | 16:18 |
| BluesKaj | HackeMate, rather than use wpa_supplicant on my laptop , which uses the atheros card , I use wicd network manager and it works well. | 16:18 |
| Roasted | ikonia, are you suggesting that ubuntu cloud itself isnt that clean of a setup, or that YOUR setups in particular arent that thorough? | 16:19 |
| iceroot | Guest22920: with esc you go into command-mode and then type :wq | 16:19 |
| Juliata | Hi! I need to lower the resolution of the movie; I leave codecs the same; does anyone know the command-line way (ffmpeg) to do that? | 16:19 |

| Guest22920 | excellent, cheers! | 16:19 |
| Roasted | ikonia, my boss asked I look into it with possible intention of deploying it to a couple hundred laptops we have in house. I'm just trying to set up a simple and very basic test environment with it. | 16:19 |
| logankoester | What do you guys use for monitoring processes and making sure they get restarted if they crash? | 16:20 |
| HackeMate | BluesKaj: yea, but I'm trying to find an universal way to configure via console the wireless connection, so I could run a script via ssh to do it (I have some users that asks me to do this) | 16:20 |
| Mike_lifeguard | Juliata: try #ffmpeg or #openvideo - if gmaxwell is online, he is typically quite helpful | 16:20 |
| Roasted | ikonia, for something as large scale as 400-500 laptops to be running on ubuntu cloud, would you suggest I look elsewhere? | 16:20 |
| Juliata | Mike_lifegueard, thanks a lot! | 16:20 |
| ikonia | Roasted: running laptops ?? do you mean using the laptops as host ? | 16:20 |

| fnord-apples23 | guys Im trying to reinstall ubuntu using wubi and I get this error message can anyone help PLEASE : OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: u'C:\\ubuntu\\install\\ubuntu-9.10-desktop-amd64.iso' | 16:20 |
| Roasted | ikonia, well we'd set up the cloud on a larger server, and have the laptops feed off of it... or whatever... not sure if Im using the proper terminology :P | 16:21 |
| lo-ryan | logankoester: you could use cfengine or puppet | 16:21 |
| ikonia | Roasted: ahhh so use the cloud for remote processing | 16:21 |
| Roasted | ikonia, my boss likes the feel and ease of use of ubuntu, and was curious if we could run ubuntu on these laptops BUT in a thin client sort of environment. | 16:21 |
| ikonia | Roasted: the client number doesn't really matter in that respect, | 16:21 |
| finiras2 | how do i extract a dvd image file, .IMG? | 16:21 |
| Roasted | ikonia, have you used the cloud in a manner such as I'm describing? | 16:21 |
| ikonia | Roasted: I wouldn't try to use them as actual "clients" think of the cloud as VM imgrastructure | 16:21 |
| ikonia | Roasted: if you mean as remote processing resources, then yes, that's an excellent option | 16:22 |
| Roasted | ikonia, I guess we're just trying to try out a fully free and open source method of using existing hardware in a thin client-like environment, where instead of mass imaging these systems, they boot to the network and grab one pre-built "image" and run off of that. | 16:22 |
| ikonia | Roasted: I wouldn't recommend (personally) trying to use the virtual hosts as netboots for laptops, the clouds meant for "local" processing to the cloud | 16:23 |
| ikonia | Roasted: I suppose if you got the client thin enough it would work though | 16:23 |
| ikonia | Roasted: I'd be interested in how it works out for you | 16:23 |
| Roasted | ikonia, I understand. Is there anything in the realm of what I'm trying to do in regard to Ubuntu that would be better suited? | 16:23 |
| Roasted | ikonia, well, I definitely have my work cut out fo rme. I have the ubuntu server/cloud or whatever installed on a test desktop here, and now Im completely clueless on where to go. I figured I'd ask around before I devote more time on it, just in case it was a bad idea. | 16:24 |
| logankoester | lo-ryan: thanks i'll check those out | 16:24 |
| ikonia | Roasted: well for the thin client you're suggesting your laptops still going to be doing the work, so just a netboot server, however you may want to look at local installs on the laptops, but then applications that run off the cloud | 16:24 |
| Roasted | ikonia, but how would that be beneficial? I can understanding running the images 100% local, or running the images 100% from server, but to use the OS on each laptop + apps from server, where's the benefit in that? | 16:25 |

| traveller111 | songbird doesnt play any music, theres no sound | 16:26 |
| ikonia | Roasted: so running the OS of a local install will make the laptops run better as it's a local resource, however applications that need to do work, eg: computer modelling, accounting packages etc, run them on the cloud and let you $X node cloud environment do the work and just present it back to your laptop | 16:26 |
| Xase | Hey, how would one from inside ubuntu "burn" an iso to an MS pro duo | 16:26 |
| damjanzg | what is currently LTS | 16:26 |
| Xase | I want to use it for installing ubuntu on my wife's acer | 16:27 |
| Pici | damjanzg: 6.06 and 8.04. 10.04 is coming up in April. | 16:27 |
| traveller111 | i tried google and many forums, but nothing worked out. can anyone help me with songbird? | 16:27 |

| sieson | I've never run compiz on my system before because of its problems with ATI cards, but now I just tried it and it seems that all my problems are solved but there is only one problem. It takes too long to maximize a window. Does anyone know why is that? | 16:27 |
| Ahlee | root@alpha:/# apt-get install libc6-dev | 16:27 |

| Xase | traveller111: what do you want to know about songbird. | 16:27 |
| traveller111 | theres no sound | 16:27 |
| Xase | ... Hmm | 16:27 |
| ikonia | Roasted: keep in mind if you netboot the laptops, all the processing will still be local to the laptop, but they will be slow due to running the whole OS in ram and having to swap out (think livecd) | 16:27 |
| Ahlee | thoughts on how I could have managed to whack libc6 and libstdc++? | 16:27 |
| Xase | Unfamiliar with that problem... | 16:27 |
| traveller111 | alright, cheers anyway | 16:28 |
| damjanzg | Pici:is there some newer releas that supports nvidia-glx-71 | 16:28 |
| ikonia | Roasted: I've not done that setup with ubuntu cloud, but certainly with other cluster technology, it's teh setup I'm working on with my dev clound enviornment now | 16:28 |
| Xase | Let me see real quick traveller111 if I can duplicate the problem. | 16:28 |
| ikonia | Roasted: I'm having a few problems as my dev environments interconnects are a bit to slow (I think) | 16:28 |
| Roasted | ikonia, ehh... what will be slow exactly... the apps, or the OS? Because if the OS is still on the laptop Iw ould think the OS would zip along, leaving apps (possibly) running slower. | 16:28 |
| Pici | damjanzg: I see that package in both the 8.10 and 9.04 repositories. | 16:29 |
| ooev | q | 16:29 |
| ikonia | Roasted: if the OS is installed locally on the laptop - it will be fast, if the OS is netboot it will be slow | 16:29 |
| leopino | \server explosionirc.net | 16:29 |
| Roasted | ikonia, and with your suggestion, OS = local, apps = network, but processing OF the apps = local. am I correct? | 16:29 |
| Xase | traveller111: | 16:29 |
| Xase | Did you install it from the website? | 16:29 |
| ikonia | Roasted: no, processing of the cloud aware apps will be remove, processing of other apps, will be local | 16:29 |
| traveller111 | i tried several things | 16:29 |
| damjanzg | Pico: and he is not in 9.10, I need it for nvidia alta graphic card | 16:30 |
| traveller111 | but one was to install it from the website | 16:30 |

| Xase | traveller111: | 16:30 |
| ikonia | leopino: its /server not \server | 16:30 |

| Roasted | ikonia, yeah. it cant hurt. We'll just have to do a truckload of testing. The last thing I want is to have 500 laptops bomb on me and have to re-image them back to the way they were. | 16:34 |
| ikonia | Roasted: I'd pick a smaller number than 500 to test with ;) | 16:34 |
| Roasted | ikonia, oh definitely. But I mean I want to do prolonged testing here. I dont want to start with 10, then 30, then 250, then 500 and THEN something backfire. | 16:34 |
| ikonia | Roasted: keep notes, I'd be intersted in how you get on, make sure your cloud has good IO and a fast network | 16:35 |
| Ahlee | how do you correct shared library issues? Looks like libc.so. (trailing dot makes me suspicious here) - running 'w' or 'who' reports it cannot open shared object file, strace w shows it's walking through normal lib directories and is unable to find libc.so., not sure why it's looking for libc.so. and not libc.so or libc.so.6 | 16:35 |

| Ahlee | Thanks Trek | 16:49 |
| SKULL | <bazhang> like BackTrack | 16:50 |
| Ahlee | bazhang: HandBrake is the least of my concerns at this point. | 16:50 |

| SKULL | in the backtrack is nice | 16:51 |
| bazhang | SKULL, downloaded what | 16:51 |
| nanotube | hapik: that way when you close the terminal afterwards, the gui app will still remain running. | 16:51 |
| SKULL | Conky | 16:51 |
| ichat | cmd whats your cpu kind brand and model? | 16:51 |
| nanotube | hapik: otherwise, you can use the alt-f2 shortcut... | 16:51 |
| Quique | hi | 16:51 |
| Trek | hapik: by loading it via GUI, it bypasses terminal access. Using the terminal means the app is running in terminal. You close that terminal, it goes POOF | 16:52 |
| bazhang | SKULL, so then configure it, there is an excellent beginners guide at ubuntuforums; would you like the link? | 16:52 |

| hapik | nanotube: nohup works, but it leaves nohup.out file. I guess I can disable it when I read man nohup. Thanks | 16:54 |
| methras | Good evening everyone | 16:54 |
| nanotube | hapik: np :) | 16:54 |
| methras | I hope someone is able to help me a bit... I am having issues with my soundcard. The thing is that it works when the computer is freshly booted and after a while it just stops working. I have absolutely no idea how to fix this. I have gone through the help in !sound and that doesn't resolve it. | 16:55 |
| Ahlee | I see that /lib/libc.so.6 is a symlink to /lib/libc-2.9.so - other than tracing through the output of calling a progrram that links to libc.so.6 with strace or similar, how can I find where exactly this is breaking? | 16:55 |
| Pianoman13 | i tried to configure my wireless following the instructions in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WiFiHowTo but got lost somewhere in one of the install or in one of the windows . . . really need help on this one | 16:55 |
| nanotube | hapik: to avoid nohup.out: "nohup appname > /dev/null &" | 16:55 |
| ikonia | Ahlee: you don't need to strace it, just follow the simlinks through | 16:56 |
| Ahlee | ikonia: That's the thing - symlinks are valid | 16:56 |

| WEXFORDMAN | Hi, looking for some help getting dvd playback working on my unbuntu 9.10 install | 16:56 |
| nanotube | !medibuntu | WEXFORDMAN | 16:56 |
| ubottu | WEXFORDMAN: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 16:56 |
| methras | nanotube, how do I do that? Haven't tried that, no. | 16:56 |
| ikonia | Ahlee: check permissions on the files then too | 16:56 |
| Ahlee | ikonia: /lib/libc.so.6 points to /lib/libc-2.9.so, /lib/libc-2.9.so is there | 16:56 |
| nibbler | Ahlee: then, what is strace saying (use -eopen) | 16:57 |
| WEXFORDMAN | Ubottu: I have medibuntu installed, and no luck | 16:57 |
| cmp | ikonia , you know what ... it was my mistake that i asked for your help ..i thought you can be really helpful. but really i see how much you enjoy to stress the others to by reading what you dont want to give them ....what i can say here for you is ..i wish you will be needing something so badly and you keep asking asking and they will enjoy stressing you | 16:57 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 16:57 |
| Trek | WEXFORDMAN: direct your comments to nanotube, ubottu is being used by all of us. | 16:57 |
| nanotube | methras: look for processes named "pulseaudio" and kill them. then, start pulseaudio again with "sudo /etc/init.d/pulseaudio start" | 16:57 |
| traveller111 | can anyone help me with songbird? i dont get any sound. i use alsa | 16:57 |
| ikonia | cmp: I am happy to help you, as I've been trying to do, but at this stage it is beyond your abilities, if you have clients needing this, then I suggest you visit www.canonical.com and pay for comercial support | 16:58 |
| Ahlee | ok, I see it's actually looking for an escaped libc.so.\6 | 16:58 |
| Pianoman13 | if someone know how to install a wireless connection and can help me understand the instructions i would really appreciate as i already spent over 14 hours trying to solve this issue on my hp laptop | 16:58 |
| nanotube | WEXFORDMAN: did you install the libdvdcss package from the medibuntu repo/ | 16:58 |
| methras | nanotube, I will try that now | 16:58 |
| WEXFORDMAN | nanotube: i have medibutu isntalled and no luck, als lidvdcss2 | 16:58 |
| cmp | ikonia , trust me if i can find some other place to ask for support i wouldnt come here never only because of you | 16:58 |
| nanotube | methras: good luck - let know how it goes? :) | 16:58 |
| Ahlee | rather than libc.so.6, | 16:58 |

| Chinta | Hi everyone. I am not very much savvy computer-wise, but I try my best to move to Ubuntu. I bought a laptop (Acer Extensa 5235) precisely for being described as Linux friendly, but when it initiates, I get an error message saying something like "failed to enable ATAPI-something (mask 0xsomething)". The computer, as far as I can tell (which is quite close) seems to work alright, but I wonder what the deal is. Anyone? Please? | 16:58 |
| nanotube | WEXFORDMAN: so what exactly isn't working? | 16:58 |
| nanotube | WEXFORDMAN: what are you seeing when you try to play a dvd? | 16:58 |
| nibbler | Ahlee: try to supply it by createing a symlink... | 16:59 |
| fsufitch | can someone help me with iptables configuration for port forwarding from a server to another computer on the same private VPN? | 16:59 |
| ikonia | fsufitch: #netfilter and #iptables are also good channels, specific for iptables | 16:59 |
| ikonia | fsufitch: also look at ubuntu firewall | 16:59 |
| nanotube | WEXFORDMAN: and what app are you using to try to play? | 17:00 |
| Pianoman13 | this is my card, i think Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965 AG | 17:00 |
| hapik | nanotube: thanks again. the obvious solutions are the best | 17:00 |
| WEXFORDMAN | nanotube: errors when i was getting erros saygin unable to read etc | 17:00 |
| fsufitch | ikonia, i followed the first part of this "tutorial", but would ubuntu's firewall be interfering? http://www.hackorama.com/network/portfwd.shtml | 17:00 |
| abhi_nav | i want to buy compressed air can. i live in Panvel, India. anybody from India using compressed air for their comuters???? | 17:00 |
| fsufitch | ikonia, i'll join #iptables and ask there too | 17:00 |
| methras | nanotube, When I killed the process it started automaticaly. Still no sound. :( | 17:01 |
| nanotube | hapik: hehe, well, nohup is only obvious if you know about it... :) | 17:01 |
| WEXFORDMAN | nanotube: using vlc medai | 17:01 |
| abhi_nav | i want to buy compressed air can. i live in Panvel, India. anybody from India using compressed air for their computers???? | 17:01 |
| Chinta | No one knows what a "failed to enable ATAPI" error while initiating could be related to? | 17:01 |
| Ahlee | ha. | 17:01 |
| ikonia | fsufitch: just been educated, it's uncoplicated firewall, not ubuntu firewall, that may help you find the right tool | 17:01 |
| bazhang | abhi_nav, #ubuntu-in would have indian users | 17:01 |
| ikonia | Ahlee: winner ? | 17:01 |
| mcphail | abhi_nav: please don't keep repeating that. It is off topic | 17:01 |
| abhi_nav | bazhang: & mcphail: ok | 17:01 |
| nanotube | methras: are you sure you actually killed it? you have to sudo kill, because process is running as root. | 17:01 |
| Ahlee | Well, that was not wise. I moved the libc.so.6 symlink to libc.so.6.bak (sudo mv libc.so.6{,.bak}) | 17:01 |
| ikonia | Ahlee: not good | 17:02 |
| Pianoman13 | i tried to configure my wireless following the instructions in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WiFiHowTo but got lost somewhere in one of the install or in one of the windows . . . really need help on this one | 17:02 |
| nibbler | fsufitch: just mind the order of the rules, -A appends, -I inserts on top - make sure the result is ok | 17:02 |
| ikonia | Ahlee: everything broke now ? | 17:02 |
| Chinta | :-( | 17:02 |
| Ahlee | ikonia: yeah...I forgot that even mv is dynamically linked | 17:02 |
| nanotube | abhi_nav: yes, i am using compressed air sometimes to blow dust out of my laptop heatsink... so? | 17:02 |
| ikonia | Ahlee: yup, easy to get caught out | 17:02 |
| Ahlee | so I guess I boot to a rescue environment and see if I can put it back together | 17:02 |
| fsufitch | nibbler, i only have a single rule :) the packets are getting to the other computer on the VPN, but it doesn't seem any response gets back, nor that the server here responds | 17:02 |
| nanotube | WEXFORDMAN: hrm... well, maybe try another player? (though vlc is usually very good about this...) | 17:02 |
| fsufitch | nibbler, so i'm thinking the packets arrive but get blocked somehow | 17:02 |
| abhi_nav | nanotube: where do u live? | 17:03 |
| Ahlee | at this point I'm thinking it might be time just to reinstall. :) | 17:03 |
| hapik | nanotube: it's often more putting two and two together then knowledge | 17:03 |
| nibbler | fsufitch: i can tell you that a simple forward wont make you happy in 99% of the cases | 17:03 |
| ichat | cmp - whould you also ask me to teatch you to fly a helicopter in about 5mins time, | 17:03 |

| abhi_nav | nanotube: i mean i want to buy one but not getting? how and where do u get it? | 17:03 |
| nibbler | fsufitch: also you need to enable forwarding in /proc somewhere | 17:03 |
| abhi_nav | nanotube: then its ok | 17:03 |
| WEXFORDMAN | nanotube: movie player also fails, ad gxine also, no matter what i use its failing | 17:03 |

| nibbler | willemb: did you try insatlling it with the ubuntu tool for unsupported hardware, or with a download from nvidia directly? | 17:13 |
| ichat | also i think wine will not work for the lack of direct access to your vga card, which vbox can (if your system support hw-virt) | 17:13 |

| sebsebseb | Hi | 17:17 |
| greybrimstone | sipior apparently there was. FreeBSD is the system that I am coming fron and it provides me with mod_ajp which enables me to connect to the back-end java server. Does ubuntu provide any such facility? What facility is it? | 17:18 |
| nibbler | Tresmius: ah sorry, misunderstood you then. well, there is video4linux and video4linux2, dont know, maybe its connected to support for this or that of the programs | 17:18 |
| Pici | cbx: gedit would the closest to notepad++ that I can think of. There is also the gedit-plugins package if you want more plugins. | 17:18 |
| nibbler | Tresmius: anyway, i'm off, laters | 17:18 |
| sipior | greybrimstone: have you tried "apt-cache search ajp"? | 17:18 |

| bazhang | deostroll, you can probably run them in wine; check the appdb and /join #winehq | 17:28 |

| od3n | how do I start gnome from there | 17:32 |
| Ahlee | but /etc/profile has not been modified today, so I have no idea how it was sharing the env but that's my only guess as to how this could have been occuring across multiple independent logins | 17:32 |
| cbx | bazhang, I found sagcad in the ubuntu installer (9.10) should I check some other repo? | 17:33 |
| Ahlee | I do have an NFS mounetd /home, maybe .bashrc or similar was playing games with the sessions? | 17:33 |

| ticko | Hello, Just installed ubuntu today...I have an eVGA 9800GX2 and everytime i click on extreme in my appearance menu my computer locks up and im forced to manually reboot | 18:09 |
| ActionParsnip | tresmius: that's all I know dude. I don't use webcams, too creepy | 18:09 |
| Tresmius | What does symlink do? | 18:09 |
| josenco | TONTOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS | 18:09 |
| ticko | it says searching for drivers than just freezes | 18:09 |
| ActionParsnip | Ticko: have you installed the nvidia driver? | 18:10 |
| ticko | can i manually install drivers? | 18:10 |
| josenco | IJO DE PUTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!11111111111111111111 | 18:10 |
| leeping | ticko, I think you need to install NVidia drivers, but I also think the newest Ubuntu does that automatically | 18:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Ticko: add the nvidia ppa then install nvidia-glx-195 | 18:10 |
| sipior | josenco: someone leave your cage unlocked? | 18:10 |
| ticko | ActionParsnip: through synaptic? ill give it a shot | 18:10 |
| od3n | so after putting the cd in should I just hit the Install Ubuntu option | 18:10 |
| leeping | I have two eVGA 9500 cards in my workstation, but none of the visual effects work because I use Xinerama. Multiple monitors are usually a problem | 18:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Ticko: you will find the ppa using websearches | 18:10 |
| ticko | ok | 18:11 |
| benjaminvm | any ubuntu/python projects that could use some help with coding? | 18:11 |
| leeping | ticko I don't think it's synaptic. Try "Hardware drivers" or something under the system menu, they are proprietary drivers | 18:11 |
| ActionParsnip | !ot | benjaminvm | 18:11 |
| ubottu | benjaminvm: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 18:11 |
| ActionParsnip | Benjaminvm: or try #python | 18:11 |
| nefast | Hmm, how would I go about downloading the files on this page [ http://www.dandeacon.com.nyud.net/mp3/ ] with wget? When I do "wget -r "page" " it only download a txt file called robots. | 18:12 |
| ticko | ActionParsnip: th vdpau team the correct ppa? im new to this is that a package i must install? | 18:12 |
| benjaminvm | thanks | 18:12 |
| ActionParsnip | Ticko: use software sources and copy the bold ppa;// address and paste it in there to add it. You can then run: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-195 | 18:13 |
| nefast | I don't know why it doesn't want to download the folders. :/ | 18:13 |
| ticko | ActionParsnip: great thanks | 18:13 |
| ZykoticK9 | ticko, you're looking for "Nvidia PPA" - in karmic you can use "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sevenmachines/nvidia" to add it. | 18:14 |

| theadmin | spartan07: It's 9.10 :D | 18:15 |
| ZykoticK9 | ActionParsnip, that's for mplayer support with vpdau | 18:16 |

| ECKTI | i got a question for you guys.... Comcast has now started the XFINITY program... my question is what was XFINITY originally called... HINT: poissibly in the 90's... HINT 2: the name is more like what was the concept of XFNIITY called | 18:16 |
| blakkheim | kab: yes but what kind of services will the server run is what i was asking | 18:16 |

| blakkheim | kab: so the other computers will just be thin clients? | 18:17 |

| kab | blakkheim yes, | 18:19 |
| Tresmius | guntbert, I've been asking for a few days and my understanding of the problem has progressed but I still don't have a solution | 18:19 |
| kab | blakkheim, yes, it will be in the same LAN | 18:19 |
| ticko | ActionParsnip: ok see ya in a few | 18:19 |
| blakkheim | kab: ok, sounds reasonable but you might want to use something a little lighter than GNOME otherwise it may be slow for the users | 18:19 |
| spartan07 | well got to go just wanted to say thanks. | 18:20 |
| * ActionParsnip loves folks who say thanks :) | 18:20 | |

| theadmin | blakkheim: Meh, don't like complex editors as vi. nano and gedit are my favorites. | 18:22 |
| blakkheim | theadmin: vi isn't complex, but use whatever you are most comfortable with | 18:23 |
| theadmin | blakkheim: Okay, thanks | 18:23 |

| theadmin | Absolute1: Had no problems with Nvidia, likely yes | 18:29 |

| ticko | epoch: heh true | 18:55 |
| Kavinorum | ActionParsnip, I have, most people seem to have installed UNR and not plain ubuntu | 18:55 |
| lostinspace_46 | ActionParsnip, Do you have a link to that guide? | 18:56 |
| epoch | ticko, imo, ubuntu is successful over ALL distros for converting microsoft users to linux...even redhat(shudder) ;) | 18:57 |
| ActionParsnip | !ot | epoch | 18:57 |
| ubottu | epoch: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 18:57 |
| blakkheim | epoch: i don't think redhat is interested in converting windows people, it's a serious server distro | 18:57 |
| ticko | epoch: agreed ubuntu makes it super easy to make the switch | 18:57 |
| Kavinorum | ActionParsnip, actually i havent looked for a guide, just my specific issue | 18:57 |
| Kavinorum | i was not aware that there are guides written | 18:58 |

| jgcp | this afternoon my browsers stopped working. | 19:02 |
| tenpenny | ActionParsnip: ubuntu 9.10; xsane is able to detect usb scanner | 19:02 |
| ActionParsnip | Jgcp: do other apps access the web ok? | 19:02 |
| jgcp | irc works fine, so does pidgin | 19:02 |
| tenpenny | ActionParsnip: but scanner produce weird sound and then it won't respond | 19:03 |
| ActionParsnip | Tenpenny: run: lsusb ,one line will identify the device. Use its 8 character hex id in websearches | 19:03 |
| erUSUL | jgcp: error messages from the browser? | 19:03 |
| Kavinorum | hmm i think my problem might be more in depth, is there a way to get a log of the screen at shutdown? | 19:03 |
| tenpenny | ActionParsnip: scanner is acer flatbedd | 19:03 |
| ZykoticK9 | jgcp, do you happen to have another browser you can try? To determine if it's a browser or network issue. | 19:04 |
| jgcp | i'm using 9.10. i get "cannot display page", and all the common errors | 19:04 |
| ActionParsnip | Tenpenny: doesn't matter what's printed on the plastic casing. You need the id which linux sees | 19:04 |

| ActionParsnip | Ericjames: is there a bug logged for this? | 19:09 |
| nastas | DjRobbie: did you check that might be routers problem? | 19:09 |

| === satz is now known as ombra | ||
| DjRobbie | ActionParsnip: Will do, just after it has dropped ? | 19:10 |
| trism | ericjames: are you sure they are duplicates and not a normal one and a recovery one? | 19:11 |
| DjRobbie | Nastas: Nope, havent done that....i also have a WTR54GL router that i can try. Rather recomend that one, as its also a Linux Router | 19:11 |
| ActionParsnip | Djrobbie: well not long after, its not hugely time critical but yes after | 19:11 |
| ericjames | trism: I have two normal ones and two recovery ones | 19:11 |
| Tresmius | Unrelated to my previous problem, when I download a torrent using transmission it keeps dropping to 0kbps then rising to the limit for several seconds, this cycle repeats. Websites don't load and anything else using the network lags extremely. | 19:11 |
| trism | ericjames: yes you should, because you have 2 kernels | 19:12 |
| DjRobbie | ActionParnsip: Will try to download a torrent now, and see what happens (type in dmesg | tail in Terminal) | 19:12 |
| babalu | hello, i don't know where to ask that, but how can i align to the right a multiline label for box shape node on .dot? | 19:12 |
| trism | ericjames: you should also have 2 memtest because one is a normal memtest and the other is for a serial console | 19:12 |
| ericjames | trism: i see. should I remove one? or at least, how do I remove the option from the grub menu? | 19:13 |
| === che__ is now known as retro | ||
| ericjames | trism: I'm not sure why I'd need two kernels and I'd rather they not show up when I'm booting. | 19:14 |
| ActionParsnip | Ericjames: if you uninstall the old kernel (assuming you don't use it) it will remove its option in grub | 19:14 |
| trism | ericjames: if you wanted to remove the other kernel, you just need to uninstall it, but it is usually a good idea to keep at least two kernels (like you have), in case you find a bug in your current one | 19:14 |
| === retro is now known as che__ | ||
| ActionParsnip | Ericjames: just incase the new one doesn't work you can roll back. | 19:15 |
| ericjames | ActionParsnip: trism: thanks | 19:15 |
| ActionParsnip | Ericjames: after uninstalling it you will need to run: sudo apt-get --purge autoremove ,to remove the modules | 19:15 |
| ActionParsnip | Ericjames: you will gain about 120Mb of space back too | 19:16 |
| ericjames | trism: in that case I won't remove the old one, however, can I just change the options displayed in the grub boot menu? | 19:16 |
| freeride | guys, what's WebKitGtk and how to install it? | 19:16 |
| ericjames | ActionParsnip: I don't mind the 120Mb if it may come in handy on some occasion. | 19:16 |
| ActionParsnip | Ericjames: if your current kernel is 100% fine then the other one is dead weight | 19:16 |
| DjRobbie | ActionParsnip: Now i typed in dmesg | tail and I got some information. What to do next? The Bandwith goes up and down and up again 100% measures... | 19:17 |
| trism | ericjames: unfortunately no, because they are both added by the same grub script...it is possible to do but it is a hassle, if you really want it gone you should just install the kernel | 19:17 |
| ActionParsnip | Your call :) | 19:17 |
| === gaetan is now known as Guest20072 | ||

| trism | ericjames: you can, but it will be overwritten next grub/kernel update | 19:18 |

| ericjames | ActionParsnip: thanks, I'm reading it now. | 19:21 |
| trism | ericjames: you can move windows to the top if you want to, you just need to rename /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober to /etc/grub.d/09_os-prober and all the other operating systems will be at the top instead of the bottom (and since you only have windows 7, it will be windows 7, then the most recent ubuntu kernel) | 19:21 |
| ActionParsnip | Ticko: kde has yakuake. You can also use tilda in gnome instead of guake but you seem to like guake so stick with it ;) | 19:21 |

| airtonix | alienkid10, with a web browser ? | 20:36 |

| tom_fishy | hi, is it possible if I have a ntfs partion and don't want to loose whats on that partion but to take say 100gb of that to make a linux partion, so that I can dual boot? because I still want my windows partion. | 20:55 |
| tenji | how would i go about configuring my system and use it to the fullest with ubuntu? | 20:55 |
| enzotib | purpzey: try gnome-terminal -geometry 80x24+221+84 | 20:55 |
| c3l | guntbert, I dont mind strugling a bit to get it nicer =) and afaik it will be useful later on for me anyway to know latex | 20:56 |
| enzotib | purpzey: some apps, like terminale, interpret the first two number as number of chars and not pixels | 20:56 |
| sebsebseb | tom_fishy: Sure altough 100GB is way more than what is needed for Ubuntu | 20:56 |

| sebsebseb | xav3s: ideally you would want to use the latest kernel from the repo, because they are security updates, however using your previous one that worked for now, untill their's another update, would probably be ok. Plus their's a way to check the file system for errors, which it should do automatically after 23 or so boots. | 21:06 |

| sebsebseb | Trek: What do you mean update-grub rippedchicken should be able to to just gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst add in or change the Windows entry having it pointing to the second hard drive, save the file, and done | 21:27 |
| paribanu | join #albasol | 21:27 |
| diago | hackintosh: speaker-test -c 2 produces no sound? | 21:27 |
| Trek | sebsebseb: grub can auto-update menu.lst if you give it a command to do so. it searches the partitions for OSes | 21:28 |
| rippedchicken | how do I find my Windows install in the secondary drive? | 21:28 |
| sebsebseb | Trek: yeah I thought that's what you meant by update-grub as in a command for it | 21:28 |
| hackintosh | diago not on analog and not on digital | 21:28 |
| sebsebseb | rippedchicken: well it's there | 21:28 |
| koshari | JWColeman you may need to use xev and then bind the feycode to a script which invokes lillwifi | 21:28 |
| sebsebseb | rippedchicken: as long as the hard disk is in the computer properly | 21:28 |
| sebsebseb | rippedchicken: then it's just point Grub at it and done | 21:28 |
| dgd | JWColeman: make sure your button is enabled in BIOS too | 21:28 |
| diago | hackintosh: speaker-test -Dplughw:0,0 -c 2 | 21:29 |
| diago | that should be analog | 21:29 |
| rippedchicken | I know but I need to type in like hd(0, 1) | 21:29 |
| sebsebseb | rippedchicken: yes | 21:29 |
| rippedchicken | but I don't know what to type. | 21:29 |
| sebsebseb | rippedchicken: except it would be | 21:29 |
| JWColeman | Can anyone help me with a faulty wireless switch? | 21:29 |
| koshari | JWColeman you may need to use xev and then bind the feycode to a script which invokes lillwifi | 21:29 |
| sebsebseb | rippedchicken: hd(1,0) I think, so second hard disk, and partition one | 21:29 |
| diago | actually hackintosh I don't see the master channel in the mixer | 21:30 |
| Jordan_U | rippedchicken, "sudo update-grub" should add windows to the menu automatically if you are using grub2 | 21:30 |
| hackintosh | diago http://paste.debian.net/60316/ | 21:30 |
| rippedchicken | No I am not using grub2 | 21:30 |
| j4nine | actually I want to order some cds, but i just found the form to order one live cd | 21:30 |
| danvers | .quit | 21:30 |
| sebsebseb | Jordan_U: no rippedchicken is on 9.04, so Grub Legacy | 21:30 |
| JWColeman | koshari- what is the easiest thing for a new ubuntu user to do to resolve this problem? | 21:30 |
| MrGoUp | Can somebody help me instal NVIDIA drivers on my dell d630 notebook, I tried various methods and everything failed (Envy, ...)? | 21:30 |

| blakkheim | !nvidia > JWColeman | 21:31 |
| ubottu | JWColeman, please see my private message | 21:31 |
| koshari | JWColeman first use xev to see if the buttos working | 21:31 |
| j4nine | i remember times when this wasnt a problem^^ | 21:31 |
| blakkheim | JWColeman: sorry wrong person | 21:31 |
| sebsebseb | rippedchicken: just edit the file grpahically gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst and that should work, as long as your second hard disk is in there properly of course | 21:31 |
| blakkheim | !nvidia > MrGoUp | 21:31 |

| anarki2004 | where should I go for questions regarding compiz? | 21:31 |

| sebsebseb | anarki2004: I think it exists that channel | 21:32 |

| tenji | ATI graphics cards??? can they be configured? | 21:33 |
| h1n1 | talking about sound | 21:33 |
| sebsebseb | tenji: I think most/all of them can get working in Ubuntu | 21:33 |
| koshari | JWColeman can you use command line? | 21:33 |
| sebsebseb | tenji: however a lot of them are known to casue people issues with Ubuntu | 21:33 |
| diago | hackintosh: speaker-test -Dplug:front -c 2 | 21:34 |
| sebsebseb | !ati | tenji | 21:34 |
| ubottu | tenji: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 21:34 |
| JWColeman | koshari- the only experience I have with a command line is in windows D: | 21:34 |
| h1n1 | it's everyone have this kind of bug? when you jack your headphone the internal speaker not muted | 21:34 |
| j4nine | @trek:so how can i do a bulk order? | 21:34 |
| koshari | JWColeman its the same, you type a command and hit enter | 21:34 |
| === canthus13 is now known as dmsudovim | ||
| tenji | Ok.. I'll check it out thanks | 21:34 |
| hackintosh | diago nothing | 21:34 |
| JWColeman | Okay, can we talk in private maybe? | 21:34 |
| sebsebseb | tenji: some ATI cards won't work at all with Ubuntu, I think | 21:34 |
| koshari | JWColeman so open a terminal and run xev | 21:34 |

| diago | man... hackintosh it's running through pulse so have you checked all of the sound mixer settings? | 21:35 |
| JWColeman | koshari- you mean literally, type in run xev? | 21:35 |
| koshari | JWColeman no, just " xev" (without quotes | 21:35 |
| hackintosh | diago you mean the one from the panel? | 21:35 |
| koshari | xev | 21:35 |
| serg_ | hola | 21:36 |
| diago | hackintosh: yeah | 21:36 |
| JWColeman | koshari- I have to reboot into ubuntu without an internet connection to try this, after running xev, what might my next step be? | 21:36 |
| Shazam | what's a v4l1 based video application. I believe my webcam is being picked up as v4l1 capable, and I want to test it | 21:36 |
| skrite | my bootup stopped with a message that my mount of filesystem failed and i need to run fsck / manually to fix the errors. CONTROL-D will terminate this shell and retry. but keeps comming back | 21:36 |
| Trek | j4nine: i see, they removed the bulk order link... you'll have to order bulk packages of CDs from Canonical then for money | 21:36 |
| serg_ | hola | 21:36 |
| serg_ | alguien habla español | 21:37 |
| Trek | skrite: did you boot into recovery mode? | 21:37 |
| guntbert | skrite: it told you a device name too | 21:37 |
| Trek | !es | serg_ | 21:37 |
| ubottu | serg_: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. | 21:37 |
| koshari | JWColeman it should bring up a box and event viewer, from here you can see if the bitton is working, if so record the keycode. also run lsmod and see if the acer_wmi module is loaded. | 21:37 |
| j4nine | i just read bulk means 200 cds? | 21:37 |
| Trek | j4nine: you can get them in packs of 20 at the minimum | 21:37 |
| JWColeman | acer_wmi | 21:37 |
| JWColeman | koshari- basically like the event viewer in windows am I correct? If I hit a button and some kind of error occurs it will record it, if nothing happens, it is likely that the module is not loaded then? | 21:38 |
| skrite | Trek, did not try boot into recovery , yes, was device /dev/sda1 | 21:38 |
| koshari | JWColeman correct, acer_wmi is the module that controls the acer specific stuff like extra buttons ect | 21:38 |
| hackintosh | diago: http://hirnfick.biz/shots/Bildschirmfoto-Audio-Einstellungen.png looks fine to me | 21:38 |
| j4nine | 20 would be great :) but wth for money? | 21:38 |
| Trek | skrite: recovery mode may help out, otherwise you'll have to boot to a LiveCD and run fsck from the terminal there | 21:38 |
| skrite | ok Trek, thanks | 21:39 |
| diago | hackintosh: I would change the profile to just analog stereo for now | 21:39 |
| j4nine | @trek so your sure they removed the link? | 21:39 |
| Trek | j4nine: let me check again | 21:39 |
| koshari | JWColeman sort of, the xev program records all inputs regardless of action and loggs the keycode, acer_wmi is sort of like a windows driver for the specific hardware. | 21:39 |
| hackintosh | diago ok did it | 21:39 |
| j4nine | thanksalot trek# | 21:39 |
| JWColeman | koshari- another friend of mine is suggesting lsmod -a | 21:40 |
| JWColeman | koshari - would this be wise to investigate as well? | 21:40 |
| turtle^s0up | hey all, will we see Firefox 3.6 in Karmic offical repos anytime soon? | 21:40 |
| Trek | j4nine: a bulk order is a minimum of 100 but they will charge you per disc. | 21:40 |
| Trek | j4nine: they used to have nicer bulk order systems :P | 21:40 |
| nooo | Hi. Is there a way to enable restricted drivers on a livecd without restarting? (for video/networking) I'm just trying to stress-test a machine for heat but i'm running the live cd and network/video is not working without restricted drivers. | 21:40 |
| koshari | JWColeman if the acer_wmi module is loaded you "should" be able to control the wifi with "rfkill block wifi" and "rfkill unblock wifi" , i dont know what the -a switch does in lsmod | 21:41 |
| hackintosh | diago whats next? | 21:41 |
| h1n1 | hackintosh your headphone not working too? | 21:41 |
| jrib | nooo: modprobe the drivers and restart X | 21:41 |
| Randolf | hi, how can i reset my all my computer's internet configuratin? | 21:41 |

| koshari | JWColeman once you have determined what is working making a script to do the stuff graphically is easy | 21:42 |
| diago | then adjust the master volume | 21:42 |
| diago | and see if it kicks on | 21:43 |
| j4nine | @trek indeed :( can you post the link plz? just want to read that bad news ;) | 21:43 |
| JWColeman | koshari - alright, I'm going to investigate here in a moment, I'm trying to ask this other guy what the -a switch does with lsmod | 21:43 |
| JWColeman | koshari - he says it displays all the currently loaded modules in memory | 21:43 |
| BigMao | Hey there, I'm getting some pretty catastrophic errors on a Linux box. Can somebody help me diagnose the problem? | 21:44 |
| koshari | JWColeman i just ran te -a switch and it wont show all modules with it | 21:44 |
| diago | hackintosh: you wouldn't happen to have a ~/.asoundrc file would you | 21:44 |
| BigMao | I'm getting errors like "Read-only file system", rsync won't work, cp and ssh won't work | 21:44 |
| BigMao | df and ls don't work | 21:44 |
| hackintosh | diago actually not | 21:44 |
| koshari | JWColeman i would ignore the -a switch. | 21:45 |
| BigMao | This is on a HPC cluster where I'm running lots of jobs. I'm just wondering if someone has compromised the system | 21:45 |
| Shamino45 | did you get that koshari? | 21:45 |
| diago | just for giggles I hooked up my other X-Fi card here at work and get 2 channels no problem with the .20 so I'm still not sure what the deal is with your setup | 21:45 |
| koshari | so write all these steps down, or print them and check them off in ubuntu | 21:45 |

| skrite | Trek, i am in the boot evnironment cli version of the rescue cd. i can now execute a command on /dev/sda1. what do i do? | 21:48 |

| diago | h1n1 by internal you mean the speaker in the computer? | 21:49 |
| h1n1 | diago yes | 21:49 |
| diago | hackintosh: mine is limited but I have been working hard on HTPC setups at the house | 21:49 |
| h1n1 | when i jack my headphone both headphone and laptop speaker have sound | 21:49 |
| diago | lol... ok laptop speakers | 21:50 |
| h1n1 | lol | 21:50 |
| graemer | hi | 21:50 |
| koshari | Shamino45 xev will show you if the button hardware is working, and lsmod will show if the module is loaded, then you can use "rfkill block wifi" and "rfkill unblock wifi" to see if the light goes out and back on, after this we can bind the event to the action | 21:51 |

| h1n1 | but i don't know how to do it | 21:54 |
| diago | you should be able to with gnome-alsamixer, are you sure you hve that installed? | 21:54 |
| Shamino45 | koshari - thanks for your help, one more question, what if ubuntu doesn't recognize my wireless card at all, wouldn't all these steps we're talking about now be a step ahead of that? | 21:54 |
| h1n1 | yes i have it | 21:54 |
| zamanian | h1n1: I remember doing that once, should be straightforward | 21:54 |
| h1n1 | it should be straight forward | 21:55 |
| diago | haha | 21:55 |
| h1n1 | but the problem is when i want to change sound | 21:55 |
| h1n1 | from pulse audio applet | 21:55 |
| zamanian | ah, darn, they changed the volume/sound thingamajig in karmic :D not straight-forward anymore | 21:55 |
| h1n1 | it reset the surround again and my laptop speaker unmute again | 21:55 |
| koshari | Shamino45 yes and no, if your wifi card ISNT powered up the system wont be able to see it and load the module for it, so the wifi needs o be triggered if it isnt to prompt for the module, also you can check lspci and see if your wifi hardware is listed, good luck | 21:56 |
| h1n1 | it work for you doesnt mean it work for everyone :) | 21:56 |

| Diverdude | dabaR, i was hoping to find a more updated repository, so that i dont have to look out for new versions and compile them myself all the time | 22:47 |
| PingFloyd | Samuel_: probably what you really want to do is have your own local repo with your custom packages | 22:47 |

| Samuel_ | PingFloyd, it seems kind of silly to have a customer download a repository, setup their APT to include the repository, just for one .deb package | 22:48 |
| th0r | vorian: you can't use rdp for it, but you can use vnc. You have to be running a vnc server on the remote computer, and you can forward vnc via ssh | 22:48 |
| johnzorn | so whats the best way to reinstall grub if I cant boot into the ubuntu system? actually even the vmlinuz and other /boot files are messed up and need reinstalling... | 22:49 |

| vorian | th0r: ok, how to set up the vnc server | 22:49 |
| PingFloyd | Samuel_: not really | 22:49 |
| jrib | Samuel_: why would that be silly? Presumably, you want to make it easy for them to receive updates... | 22:49 |
| vorian | it's a firewall at work problem | 22:49 |
| PingFloyd | Samuel_: that's the whole idea of the package management and repo system | 22:50 |
| PingFloyd | Samuel_: it's extensible | 22:50 |
| PingFloyd | Samuel_: makes it so you can update the package in one place too | 22:50 |
| Samuel_ | jrib, most of them don't have internet access on their VPN intranets, so they wouldn't be adding my repository. They would have to download a copy of the repository to their server | 22:50 |

| dabaR | Samuel_: I am almost positive that there is a option for dpkg or something like that to install deps | 22:52 |
| PingFloyd | besides, how are they going to get their other updates? | 22:52 |
| Samuel_ | PingFloyd, that's too much to expect out of a customer. On the desktop version, all they need to do is download the file and double click it.... I assumed there should be a command line equivalent in the server version | 22:52 |
| Samuel_ | dabaR, that's what I was thinking, but I can't find it | 22:53 |
| === andrean is now known as andmatand | ||
| dabaR | Samuel_: and you read the man page? | 22:53 |
| jrib | Samuel_: anyway the thing you want is gdebi, but really a repository is the better solution | 22:53 |
| PingFloyd | Samuel_: having them use synaptic, or run apt-get install is too much to expect of them? | 22:53 |
| === jofo_ is now known as jofo | ||
| PingFloyd | Samuel_: after that, they just do an update and they'll get any newer version that goes up on the repo after that | 22:54 |
| idk | when i try to change my resolution, i only have options for 800 x 600 and 640 x 480. its saying my monitor is unkown. my xorg.conf file is blank. anyone know how to fix that? | 22:54 |
| Vamp898 | what the hell is that? http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/rakarrack Rakarrack is in every distro except ubuntu since years and know when the new Rakarrack 0.4.2 comes out, ubuntu addes 0.3 to the Alpha 2 of the upcoming release | 22:54 |
| JWColeman | Can anyone help me with a wireless switch issue? how do I get the acer_wmi module to load? | 22:54 |
| PingFloyd | if anything it makes it even easier on the customer and easier on you in maintaining your package | 22:54 |
| PingFloyd | and getting it deployed | 22:54 |
| Samuel_ | dabaR, the only thing I see for dependency checking is UNINSTALLING a package, not INSTALLING :( | 22:55 |
| nonameNN | any web page to make wireless of eeepc 1201n work under ubuntu??? | 22:55 |
| ikonia | .kast 196 | 22:55 |
| jrib | Samuel_: dpkg won't do what you want. That's why gdebi exists. But to repeat, making a repository available is a superior solution | 22:55 |
| dabaR | jrib: what about command line, can gdebi do that? | 22:56 |
| jrib | dabaR: yes iirc | 22:56 |
| Samuel_ | jrib, well, I will have a repository, but the problem is that most customers won't have internet access from their VPN intranets, and I really don't want to have the customer go through the trouble of mirroring a repository | 22:57 |
| dabaR | Samuel_: ya, heh, totally, gdebi is a command line tool | 22:57 |
| janisozaur | is there ppa with mono 2.6? | 22:57 |
| Samuel_ | jrib, so I'm trying to find simple instructions for installing the package to get a good customer experience | 22:57 |
| dabaR | Samuel_: gdebi-gtk is its gui | 22:58 |
| jrib | Samuel_: well either tell them to use gdebi or just give them an apt-get line to copy and paste | 22:58 |
| dabaR | Samuel_: but you should be able to test it out with gdebi on the command line | 22:58 |
| peeeta | Hi sorry for a stupid question, but how can I install a 32bit version of libcap.so.1? Thanks a lot | 22:59 |
| Samuel_ | dabaR, jrib, well I was hoping there was a tool that already came with Ubuntu, but if I have to require them to install gdebi ahead of time, I guess I'll do that | 22:59 |
| jrib | Samuel_: gdebi is default on the desktop version, not sure on server | 22:59 |
| lostinspace_46 | If I make a karmic live cd using Remastersys is there a way to give the cd full permissions to my HDD when it loads? | 22:59 |
| Samuel_ | jrib: when I type it in, it says I need to "sudo apt-get install gdebi-core" | 23:00 |
| jrib | Samuel_: guess that is your answer | 23:00 |
| Samuel_ | jrib, is gdebi the same tool that ubuntu-desktop uses when you double click a .deb? | 23:00 |
| jrib | Samuel_: that's the gui for it, yeah | 23:01 |
| Samuel_ | jrib, ok cool | 23:01 |
| blakkheim | Samuel_: why not just use dpkg -i file.deb | 23:01 |
| Samuel_ | blackkheim: I want something that does dependencies | 23:01 |
| james_l | Sorry to bother this channel, but if anyone is familiar/has control over the Ubuntu FloodBots, The Floodbots in #kubuntu are actually flooding the channel. | 23:02 |
| jrib | Samuel_: I guess the other option is to use dpkg and then follow it with apt-get install -f, that's what google tells me anyway | 23:02 |
| lostinspace_46 | Samuel_, I believe you just need to make it a .deb pkg, the the deb installer will take care of the install, and apt-get should work too. | 23:02 |
| yo09384 | can someone please help me with vbox? im getting guru guy error | 23:03 |
| peeeta | hi, how can I install 32bit version of libcap in a 64bit system? thanks a lot! | 23:03 |
| jrib | yo09384, you may want to try #vbox if it's specifically about virtualbox usage, but: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line) | 23:03 |
| Samuel_ | lostinspace_46, no, dpkg doesn't install dependencies and apt-get doesn't install from downloaded .deb files | 23:03 |
| cluctchski | hey all ... just did a fresh install of karmic on my lenovo thinkpad t61 .. and the mouse doesn't work after logging in ... any ideas? | 23:03 |
| yo09384 | jrib, i tried in #vbox, no response, i have log file, question will not fit in one line | 23:04 |
| cluctchski | also ... the keyboard works | 23:04 |
| jrib | yo09384: summarize it and use pastebin | 23:04 |
| janisozaur | is there ppa with mono 2.6? | 23:04 |
| cluctchski | (as do volume buttons) | 23:04 |
| yo09384 | jrib, you are genius thanks | 23:04 |

| ubottu | For a comprehensive Synaptics Touchpad guide, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad | 23:07 |

| dabaR | Diverdude: newer versions never make it into a published distro. | 23:07 |

| cluctchski | dabar,ubottu: thanks .. i'll check that out | 23:08 |
| dabaR | Diverdude: So, karmic ships with 2.1, 2.3 is never in karmic, except for backports. And backports, I have no idea what goes on with those. | 23:08 |
| dabaR | !backports | 23:08 |
| ubottu | If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they may go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports - See also !packaging | 23:08 |

| Samuel_ | lostinspace_46, I do have the dependencies set up properly in control file. The problem is dpkg doesn't install dependencies. I'm going to just install gdebi first to use gdebi to install my package unless you know a way to get dpkg or some other built in debian package manager to install dependencies | 23:09 |
| dabaR | Diverdude: what is in debian? | 23:09 |
| Diverdude | dabaR, no idea | 23:09 |
| dabaR | Diverdude: probably the same. | 23:09 |
| tautologism | sshd is running on the server that's being upgraded. | 23:10 |
| Diverdude | yes, probably | 23:10 |

| idlemind | so. i'm writing a backup script (bash script) i have a variable that stores the file paths i want to backup. if i try to backup 2 or more directories, one or more of those containing a space the tar command fails when using the variable to auto-fill those paths | 23:10 |
| tautologism | Should I restart sshd? | 23:10 |
| jrib | idlemind: #bash is for you :) | 23:10 |

| omar | can somebody help me? | 23:12 |
| lostinspace_46 | Samuel_, Check the tuts in debian, launchpad, and bazaar. They will get your pkg in a repo ahd apt-get will install | 23:12 |
| SuperMario192 | I have a Dell laptop, and I'm having issues with my wireless card. How do I set it up to work with Karmic? | 23:12 |

| freeman | jrib: I click browse. After navigating through the folders, I get to my .sh file. I click the file and then exit. | 23:16 |
| Diverdude | dabaR, precompiled binaries | 23:17 |
| SPF | configure: error: "function ctime_r not found.", any idea what package I need? I already installed build-essential and kernel sources | 23:17 |
| kuatto | I'm getting apparmor errors in dmesg and if I turn oof apparmor and remove the bin-log files I can start mysql by hand.. | 23:17 |
| jrib | freeman: but this would not make it start automatically right? Isn't that what you want? | 23:17 |
| dabaR | Diverdude: looks like it is a little java app. | 23:17 |
| dabaR | Diverdude: there should be no compiling involved, almost | 23:17 |
| ericjames | has anyone set up thinkfinger in karmic? I've read several guides, however everything seems to be in place on my system. | 23:17 |
| freeman | jrib: Yes. But when I try putting an execute period before the path it still does nothing. Do you know what code string would be more effective to get the job done ? | 23:17 |
| Diverdude | dabaR, well...java apps still needs to be compiled to byte code | 23:18 |
| jrib | freeman: you aren't telling me what you are doing. Let's start from the beginning I guess. What does your script do? | 23:18 |
| Diverdude | dabaR, probably it ships in a jar file | 23:18 |

I tried ^A Z; also ran reset, tput init, etc, from bash before starting vim. | 23:36 |

| Tresmius | Hmm, firefox is crashing a lot | 23:37 |
| === kandinsk1 is now known as kandinski | ||
| galerien | tresmius : I know what you mean!! | 23:37 |
| Shamino45 | Trek: this is jwcoleman, I have the text from ifconfig, but my browser is acting up here in windows, being really stupid, I'll have to look into that late, so I can't use the pastebin, but I can tell you what I see | 23:38 |
| CrashOverride | !firefox | 23:38 |
| ubottu | firefox is the default web-browser on Ubuntu. To install the latest version, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxNewVersion Installing plugins: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxPlugins - See also !firefox-3.5 | 23:38 |
| Tresmius | kinda annoying when I had 20 tabs opened and it keeps crashing everytime I reopen it, looks like I'll have to reboot :P | 23:38 |
| CrashOverride | ut um | 23:38 |
| CrashOverride | !firefox > Tresmius | 23:38 |
| ubottu | Tresmius, please see my private message | 23:38 |
| CrashOverride | Update your firefox | 23:38 |
| CrashOverride | ^_^ | 23:38 |
| Trek | Shamino45: list the interfaces you see, don't paste into the chat though | 23:38 |
| dabaR | Shamino45: and are you now in Ubuntu? | 23:38 |
| CrashOverride | !pastebin | 23:38 |

| CrashOverride | :) | 23:39 |
| Shamino45 | ethernet and lo, the loopback, no I am in windows currently, I cannot get internet access in ubuntu | 23:39 |
| Tresmius | It is the latest one! unless one was released in the past few hours | 23:39 |
| PsychoMari0 | CrashOverride: i recognize your nick; film? | 23:39 |
| Tresmius | lol, hackers | 23:39 |
| CrashOverride | Yah. It is based off a film | 23:39 |
| CrashOverride | :P | 23:39 |
| CrashOverride | !offtopic | 23:39 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 23:39 |
| dabaR | Shamino45: you don't have an ethernet cable you could use? | 23:39 |
| CrashOverride | Tresmius: try to downgrade your firefox maybe | 23:39 |
| Shamino45 | Trek: I don't see anything for wireless, not at the moment dabaR | 23:40 |
| Trek | Shamino45: its not recognizing the wifi device? are you sure its a switch, or is it a wireless adapter? | 23:40 |
| ericjames | how does one enable fingerprint login for gdm, sudo, and screensaver? I have installed thinkfinger and enrolled my fingerprints sucessfully. | 23:40 |
| Tresmius | it seems to happen when I go afk for a while and come back and click in the browser | 23:40 |
| Trek | Shamino: in terminal: lspci; lsusb | 23:40 |
| Shamino45 | Trek: When I do lspci, it displays my broadcom adapter | 23:41 |
| dabaR | Tresmius: is it your addons to firefox? | 23:41 |
| CrashOverride | !robot > CrashOverride | 23:41 |
| Trek | Shamino45: then PM me the results (i'll stick them in a pastebin) | 23:41 |
| CrashOverride | !bot > CrashOverride | 23:41 |
| ubottu | CrashOverride, please see my private message | 23:41 |
| Tresmius | it's a possibility | 23:41 |
| dabaR | Tresmius: that happened to me | 23:41 |
| Shamino45 | Trek: you want to see my lspci? I've done this and already confirmed that the card is detected | 23:41 |
| CrashOverride | !downgrading firefox | Tresmius | 23:42 |
| Trek | Shamino45: then the card is the broadcom adapter? | 23:42 |
| Trek | Shamino45: that means you'll need to install drivers for it... possibly with ndiswrapper | 23:42 |
| CrashOverride | !downgrading firefox > Tresmius | 23:42 |
| CrashOverride | hmm | 23:42 |
| CrashOverride | Factoid doesnt exist | 23:42 |
| CrashOverride | hm | 23:42 |
| dabaR | Shamino45: you just installed? | 23:42 |
| Shamino45 | Trek: Alright, the only drivers I've found are windows drivers, so I think ndiswrapper is my only solution here at the moment | 23:42 |
| Tresmius | I'm gonna install opera | 23:43 |
| Shamino45 | dabaR: yes | 23:43 |
| dabaR | CrashOverride: You are totally busy on that bot :) Did you know you can private message him? | 23:43 |
| CrashOverride | yah | 23:43 |
| CrashOverride | ;p | 23:43 |
| dabaR | Shamino45: An IBM, you say. eh? | 23:43 |
| CrashOverride | I thought the commands would work so I didnt | 23:43 |
| CrashOverride | my bad | 23:43 |
| CrashOverride | :p | 23:43 |
| FloodBot3 | CrashOverride: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 23:43 |
| Trek | Shamino45: i agree with you there, as the issue tracks back to broadcom drivers not existing for linux | 23:43 |
| CrashOverride | ops | 23:43 |
| dabaR | CrashOverride: you can do /msg ubottu search firefox. he will tell you all the factoids with firefox in them | 23:43 |
| galerien | err, guys, i want to install ubuntu with unetbooting and a usbkey, but i don't understand wat "OEM" is | 23:43 |
| galerien | ?? | 23:43 |
| CrashOverride | thanks dabar | 23:43 |
| dabaR | Shamino45: An IBM, you say. eh? | 23:43 |
| Shamino45 | dabar: Hahah no I wish, I'm working with an acer aspire 5516, probably the most incompatible laptop anyone could ever yhink of putting ubuntu on | 23:43 |
| dabaR | CrashOverride: sure | 23:44 |
| ericjames | my fingerprint can be verified using tf-tool, but I have no fingerprint authentication for gdm, sudo, or screen saver. /etc/pam.d/common-auth is configured properly: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m35688e36 | 23:44 |
| dabaR | Who said they have a t61 with wireless not working? | 23:44 |
| dabaR | Shamino45: I have a broadcom card on my laptop.... | 23:44 |
| Shamino45 | dabaR: did you need to use ndiswrapper to get it to work? | 23:44 |
| dabaR | Shamino45: and after I connect to the internet with cable, it asks do I want to install restricted drivers for my bcom card, I accept, and off I go into wireless land | 23:45 |
| dabaR | Shamino45: no | 23:45 |
| Shamino45 | dabaR: Hm, might have to take a walk over to my friend's house then | 23:45 |
| dabaR | galerien: Original ericjames Equipment Manufacturer | 23:45 |
| dabaR | Shamino45: you might want to try that, ya. | 23:45 |
| dabaR | Shamino45: might save you time. | 23:45 |
| dawning | cron question: Seems that some time since 8.10, something changed, a line that is used on my 8.10 boxes crontab doesn't seem to ever be run in 9.10 - any tips? | 23:46 |
| Shamino45 | dabaR: indeed, I need to go over there some time today anyways, i'll see you all later maybe, hopefully with wireless | 23:46 |
| dabaR | galerien: you can often put acronyms into google, and it will expand them for ya | 23:46 |
| dabaR | Shamino45: good luck | 23:46 |
| galerien | ok | 23:46 |
| dabaR | dawning: post the crontab | 23:46 |
| lostinspace_46 | If I make a karmic live cd using Remastersys is there a way to give the cd full permissions to my HDD when it loads? | 23:46 |
| Shamino45 | dabaR: if that doesn't work, should I try to use my windows drivers with ndiswrapper? | 23:46 |
| dabaR | Shamino45: I don't really know | 23:47 |
| Ayla | hey hey | 23:47 |
| dabaR | Shamino45: did you notice a little green icon in the top right on Ubuntu? | 23:47 |
| Ayla | does somebody here use btrfs ? | 23:47 |
| Shamino45 | dabaR: no I don't think there was anything like that | 23:47 |
| dabaR | It is basically a PC component, like a network card/one of those green pci plugins | 23:47 |
| dabaR | That comes up when there need to be restricted drivers installed for a device to work. | 23:47 |
| galerien | dabar: thx, but now i have a shell, and I don't know how to install ubuntu from here, wasn't it supposed to have a gnome based interface? | 23:48 |
| dabaR | galerien: sorry, not really sure I follow | 23:48 |
| Shamino45 | dabaR: I tried to use the little program that detects to see if any extra drivers are needed but it says no something or other drivers found | 23:48 |
| dabaR | galerien: You are trying to install ubuntu from a USB stick? | 23:48 |
| galerien | dabar: yes | 23:48 |
| dabaR | galerien: did you read the docs for that? | 23:49 |
| dabaR | !usb | 23:49 |
| ubottu | For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 23:49 |
| tautologism | dawning: are you getting mail about a failed cron run? What's the line? | 23:49 |
| Shamino45 | dabaR: if i need any extra drivers or anything it's definitely not telling me about it | 23:50 |
| galerien | well, on the web site for the soft you told me about they just said that i had to chose my iso-image and reboot... | 23:50 |
| dabaR | Shamino45: I have seen where it does not say until I connect to the net. | 23:50 |
| StuckMojo | is apt-file known not to work in ubuntu? | 23:50 |
| dabaR | I would try that myself first. | 23:50 |
| Shamino45 | dabaR: absolutely, thanks for the tip, talk to you later maybe | 23:50 |
| dabaR | Shamino45: not until tomorrow probably :) | 23:51 |
| dabaR | !apt-file | 23:51 |
| ubottu | apt-file is a program that can tell you which package(s) contain(s) a given filename. To install it and generate the database it needs, run "sudo apt-get install apt-file && sudo apt-file update" | 23:51 |
| Shamino45 | alrighty, cya | 23:51 |
| dabaR | galerien: Someone else told you about that. Never heard of that. If you are not having luck with it, try following the Ubuntu instructions shown at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick | 23:52 |
| StuckMojo | hmm..nevermind | 23:52 |
| galerien | ok | 23:52 |
| galerien | thx | 23:52 |
| teage | Is there a "exclude" for the command " cp " ? i want to copy a mount, but not all. | 23:52 |
| xfact | Anyone can tell me about useful and easy to use data backup software for Ubuntu 9.10? | 23:53 |
| teage | I am looking at the man pages and says nothing about an exclude | 23:53 |
| dabaR | teage: copy a mount>? | 23:53 |
| dabaR | a directory? | 23:53 |
| sundaymorning | teage: not that I know of, you may be able to hack something using find | 23:54 |
| tautologism | teage: you could use rsync or you could use something like cp $(find /mnt/mount -not -regex '\/dir\/to\/exclude') | 23:54 |
| dabaR | xfact: well, backup of ubuntu, or windows computers? | 23:54 |
| meowbuntu | for downloading isos what tpo use ftp or http | 23:54 |
| tautologism | teage: something like that; I may have the find syntax AFU | 23:54 |
| teage | dabaR: no, a mounted cd | 23:55 |
| od3n | thanks | 23:55 |
| teage | dabaR: the whole thing, just dont want a few items from it | 23:55 |
| tautologism | teage: obviously also you have to add the dest/ directory after the find section; also you'll probably want to set IFS='\n' | 23:55 |
| dabaR | teage: is there a reason you don't want to copy all and then delete unwanted? | 23:55 |
| sundaymorning | teage: being mounted or not doesn't really change anything here. you probably can adapt what tautologism did for your needs | 23:55 |
| xfact | dabaR, No relation with Windows computer, just I want to backup my useful Ubuntu data to keep it safely in another portable device, any tools? | 23:55 |
| yo09384 | can any1 help with a critical error in vbox? #vbox has no answer http://pastebin.com/m6460a5a0 | 23:56 |
| yoyoma | ahyes this is support | 23:56 |
| xfact | It should be easy to use, because I am not yet expert. | 23:56 |
| dabaR | xfact: well, Ubuntu One does something like that, heard about that>? | 23:56 |
| tautologism | teage: I would look into rsync though, it's meant to do that stuff. there are some gotchas though, and the manual is pretty detailed. | 23:56 |
| dabaR | meowbuntu: ftp or torrent | 23:56 |
| dabaR | meowbuntu: not sure though whether ftp is better than http, I think so | 23:57 |
| teage | true true, sundaymorning. this is what i normally do " rsync --exclude=/casper/filesystem.squashfs -a mnt/ extract-cd" | 23:57 |
| xfact | DabaR, yup, but I do not want to use on-line backup process, (takes lot time) and I have over 2GB data to backup | 23:57 |
| teage | i just want to see if i can do the same just with the cp command | 23:58 |
| dabaR | xfact: what are you gonna backup to? | 23:58 |
| mhaedo | hey everyone | 23:58 |
| xfact | Like 'System backup' in Windows | 23:58 |
| dabaR | xfact: never heard of it :) | 23:58 |
| xfact | dabaR, My documents, some sound clips, pdfs etc. | 23:58 |
| xfact | Or I can make one image file, but that would not help totally | 23:59 |
| idk | my monitor isnt recognized, any ideas? | 23:59 |
| teage | thanx guys for the help and suggestions. | 23:59 |
| mhaedo | quick question. the only 64bit ubuntu disk images I see are amd64. are those appropriate for intel 64 bit chips? | 23:59 |
| M1DLGpc | how do I use ubuntu live disk to fix my wondows boot manager? | 23:59 |
