| dacorr | smrln, i image drives a fare amount and depending on size it can take most of the day or longer | 00:00 |
| djmaniax | What does this mean? "option parsing failed: Error re-scanning registry , child terminated by signal" and how do i fix it? | 00:00 |
| smrln | dacorr, will it matter that the source partition is larger than the destination, but the amount of data on the source is less than the destination partition | 00:00 |
| GeekSquid | Purpley: everything is executable from dll's in windows, bad idea from the start... Blame it on Mr. Gates | 00:00 |
| ShadeS | i think it | 00:00 |

| ShadeS | how do i do no fb && text mode? | 00:01 |
| dacorr | smrln, i am guessing its not for forensics, what exactly are you trying to do? | 00:01 |
| Purpley | configure: error: gdbm.h not found... try --with-gdbm-includes=dir | 00:01 |
| Purpley | I get that when configuring something, where would I download that? synaptics package manager dosent detail that specifically | 00:01 |
| Losha | Purpley: not a configure option. apt-get build-dep will try and satisfy dependencies of a source package, but I don't think it will work with just any old random tar file. With those, you have to resolve dependencies manually | 00:01 |

| Trinity33 | someone can help me with v4l-dvb linux.org driver? have little issue and need little help | 00:05 |
| GeekSquid | Elrox: Officially, it may not be supported, however, it runs beautifully here... Perhaps because the manufacturer of this particular laptop did some extra stuff that makes it possible... Either way, I believe it is Compiz that should be supporting the hardware, not the other way around, AMD, ATI, Novell (which is SUSE i.e. redhat) are not in the market of supporting software companies, while they provide SDK's and API's to communicate with their softw | 00:05 |
| dacorr | smrln, if ubuntu can read the drive then copy the files you need to keep, only us dd if there is problems reading the drive | 00:05 |

| marenostrum | ShadeS: How much ram do you have? | 00:06 |
| dacorr | smrln, dd images or copies everything that can be read and attempts to recreate on the destination | 00:06 |

| dacorr | smrln, also keep in mind linux ignores windows permissions etc and will add the permissions of the user account copying and same when writing back to windows although easier to manipulate on ntfs | 00:10 |
| BluesKaj-Laptop | Archy1987, you set it up to use no pw , but beware if you don't have a pw when something goes wrong with X , then you have no access to root to run a TTY shell to write commands that can rescue your system | 00:10 |

| KaiForce | why is extended desktop in 9.10 / Intel graphics so difficult? | 00:16 |
| GeekSquid | lama12345: ubuntu privacy remix doesn't have one... by default it is un-modifiable, you can't change anything... That and it is not supported here as it is a derivative version that the majority (if not all of us) have never used | 00:16 |

| egalia | hi! | 00:34 |
| archy | Guest60115, no changes - i only entered that password when i was connecting to internet at first time | 00:34 |
| GeekSquid | garrett_: did you run sudo nvidia-xconfig | 00:34 |
| garrett_ | Geeksquid_:sorry. but do u understand what i tried to say? | 00:34 |
| djmaniax | dacorr: I'll try. Have slow net so this could take a while. . . This is what i was hopeing to avoid. . . wish me luck | 00:34 |
| marenostrum | egalia: hello | 00:34 |
| Purpley | argh i keep farting | 00:34 |
| Purpley | sorry wrong channel :) | 00:34 |
| garrett_ | Geeksquid_: yes | 00:35 |
| archy | Guest60115, System->Preferences->Startup Applications, and uncheck "GNOME Keyring Daemon". | 00:35 |
| GeekSquid | garrett_: close nvidia-settings, and run gksudo nvidia-settings again | 00:35 |
| dacorr | djmaniax, if it does work, you will need to purge the gstreamer and i would manually download the debs from the ubuntu websites and install just to rule out any corrupt packages etc | 00:35 |
| archy | Guest60115, i will try this | 00:35 |
| Wren12 | Hi everybody | 00:36 |

| Wren12 | it's to do ethernet teaming with nics | 00:37 |
| archy | Guest60115, Yes! It worked :) | 00:37 |
| GeekSquid | garrett_: continue the process... detect, setup dual-screens, then save to /etc/X11/xorg.conf ... the first X is caps the second isn't | 00:38 |
| jdeloach | Could someone help me setup a quad-monitor setup with dual ATI cards? ( I need help with the xorg.conf/configuring it ) | 00:38 |
| archy | Guest60115, System->Preferences->Startup Applications, and uncheck "GNOME Keyring Daemon" <-- correct solution | 00:38 |
| Guest60115 | archy what worked | 00:38 |
| Guest60115 | coool | 00:38 |
| Wren12 | ? | 00:38 |
| dacorr | djmaniax, other than removing all multimedia packages and reinstalling, kill them all for the one so to speak | 00:38 |

| GeekSquid | garrett_: now, you are going to have to do some playing around with the nvidia-settings, and I won't be able to help you with that, but all that can be controlled from that application... gksudo nvidia-settings is your friend... note nvidia likes the primary moniter to be on the left (from my expierence) | 00:48 |

| Elrox | Random832, maybe you'd be well suited to make your own support channel and offer help ther? | 00:50 |

| Younder | kla, it is highly unlikely that it will work. | 00:51 |
| joel_ | cedaga | 00:51 |
| Younder | kla,You really need a dual boot | 00:51 |

| GeekSquid | garrett_: you can manually edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf and make Screen0 be Screen1 and Screen1 be Screen0 and you should be fixed | 00:52 |
| Elrox | Random832, if that was to me, i wasn't meaning any hostile, was serious. i have done it, and you would prolly have done it better than i... | 00:52 |

| Four2zero | hey all, i just installed compiz on my netbook....but was wondering if the compiz inside the ubuntu repository or Software Center is the latest update ? | 00:54 |
| djmaniax | what just happened? | 00:54 |
| Four2zero | running ubuntu netbook remix | 00:54 |
| djmaniax | dacorr: are you or am i still here?>' | 00:54 |
| blakkheim | Four2zero: probably not | 00:54 |
| Merritt | Hope someone has insight: Fresh install of Kubuntu 9.10, no sound at all. In KMix enabled all channels, none are muted and volume turned up. lspci reports Creative Labs CA0106 Soundblaster. Seems to be loaded fine. aplay -l gives nothing, Configure Desktop > Multimedia > Device > Test gives no sound either. Pulse audio is not installed (surprisingly was not by default), ran purge pulseaudio to be sure. Ideas? Thanks | 00:54 |
| dacorr | djmaniax, still here | 00:54 |
| garrett_ | Geeksquid_:thanks. but i do have 2 problems. ubuntu thinks my ipod is a camera and some selected itunes music wont load into rhythmbox | 00:55 |
| djmaniax | dacorr: thanks, something weird just happened. . . | 00:55 |
| Four2zero | blakkheim, i did a full update after i installe UNR | 00:55 |
| Younder | Merritt, check is sound is enabled for that user | 00:55 |
| Merritt | Younder, I manually added user to the 'audio' group | 00:55 |
| checkmybrain | Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02) Ubuntu said it downloaded the driver (or some kind of cutter for it) but it still doesn't work. Any help? | 00:55 |
| Younder | Merritt, then it should work | 00:55 |
| djmaniax | dacorr: i appreciate your thoughts, but i see others have posted this problem, no one has presented a working suggestion | 00:55 |
| blakkheim | Four2zero: ubuntu usually has older versions of things | 00:56 |
| Merritt | Younder, You'd think ;) | 00:56 |
| dacorr | djmaniax, next time you reboot the netbook run the memchek just to be sure | 00:56 |
| robb | four and twenty, eh | 00:56 |
| Younder | Merritt, so there's a error. read it | 00:56 |
| Merritt | Younder, Haven't gotten any sort of error so far | 00:56 |
| Four2zero | blakkheim, should it matter what version is being installed that will not break the system. | 00:56 |
| kla | If pulseaudio is on try system-wide PA as temp solution | 00:56 |
| djmaniax | dacorr: got 2 gig, doubt very much that's my problem. 1580Mb of high memory | 00:57 |
| Lappie | ok, that covers divx, is there some substitute for silverlight? | 00:57 |
| Younder | Merritt, you wouldn't from a bach file. You need to type it in. | 00:57 |
| Merritt | Younder, Sorry, confused, type what in? | 00:57 |
| Four2zero | Also too, how can i get ubuntu netbook remix to see my other network files ? | 00:57 |
| Elrox | Lappie, Moonshine, or Moonlight,,, seen it before | 00:58 |

| Guest25955 | hello | 01:15 |
| xangua | Lappie: moonlight is the silverlight for linux, uses mono | 01:15 |
| Four2zero | sloopy, I have only one ubuntu install and the rest are all windows stations. | 01:15 |
| Lappie | kk ty, | 01:15 |
| geeps | networkmanager stopped working after i rebooted my system a couple hours ago... is there a manual way for me to get a network connection up? | 01:15 |
| Four2zero | so do i install samba on ubuntu netbook ? | 01:15 |
| cfedde | Four2zero: you can. | 01:16 |
| buntu_ | ok my next question (to anyone) is: once you've been infected by a trojan, is it really safe to use your computer again without reinstalling the whole system EVEN if you've used clamav to get rid of the trojan? | 01:16 |
| Four2zero | and then configure it to see the windows network. | 01:16 |
| cfedde | but you don't need to. | 01:16 |
| sloopy | Four2zero, you only need to install the server on ubuntu if you are going to share the resources on the ubuntu machine | 01:16 |
| Guest25955 | What application can i get that burns protected DVD's that native to GNOME? | 01:16 |
| seanbrystone | moonlight is not in the repos? | 01:16 |
| calyce | hello, anybody knows if it's possible to change the gdm theme in karmic ? | 01:16 |
| cfedde | Four2zero: you won't need samba to access a windows share. | 01:16 |
| ChogyDan | Guest25955: brasero | 01:16 |
| xangua | seanbrystone: it is in teh repos | 01:16 |
| Blue1 | buntu_: It's why we don't use windows | 01:16 |
| Guest25955 | ChogyDan , PROTECTED dvd;s | 01:17 |
| seanbrystone | !info moonlight | 01:17 |
| ubottu | Package moonlight does not exist in karmic | 01:17 |
| Four2zero | I want ubuntu to be able to see the windows network and share its resources. | 01:17 |
| seanbrystone | see | 01:17 |
| chili555 | geeps, NM and manual configuration seldom work and play well together. better to fix NM or completely remove it | 01:17 |
| buntu_ | Blue1 I was using ubuntu | 01:17 |
| Trinity33 | what ppa mean? | 01:17 |
| Guest25955 | What application can i get that burns protected DVD's that native to GNOME? | 01:17 |
| Guest25955 | tried brasero | 01:17 |
| Blue1 | buntu_: you mean linux got a virus? | 01:17 |
| cfedde | Four2zero: if you want ubuntu disks to be available to windows users then it needs to have samba. | 01:17 |
| sloopy | Four2zero, it can | 01:17 |
| ChogyDan | Guest25955: oh, sorry, I don't know about those. Why not try k3b? works fine in gnome | 01:17 |
| Four2zero | cfedde, how can i do that ? | 01:17 |
| buntu_ | blue1 yes | 01:17 |
| Lappie | ok, moonlight is installed , now how do i make moonlight work with netflix? | 01:18 |
| Blue1 | buntu_: wow -- i have never had one... | 01:18 |
| Blue1 | buntu_: which one? | 01:18 |
| xangua | seanbrystone: try moonlight-plugin-mozilla ;) | 01:18 |
| Guest25955 | ChogyDan : Will i have to download a crapload of KDE libs? | 01:18 |
| Guest25955 | Just checked in synaptic, yes i will | 01:18 |
| buntu_ | blue1 I don't know what the name of it was, but it infected several files on my system | 01:19 |
| Four2zero | all i want is ubuntu to have access to windows share files so i can view them. | 01:19 |
| ChogyDan | Guest25955: a bit. try it with apt-get, it will tell you before it commits | 01:19 |
| xangua | Lappie: restart firefox; but remember that the version in the repos is old; it only supports features from silverlight 1, not 2 | 01:19 |
| Trinity33 | what mean linux-ck????? | 01:19 |
| Guest25955 | ChogyDan , it seems i will have to DL a huge KDE lib | 01:19 |
| cfedde | Four2zero: if you attempt to share a folder ubuntu will ask to install what it needs. | 01:19 |
| Guest25955 | so thats out of the question | 01:19 |
| seanbrystone | xangua, ok ill see if theres a PPA or something for moonlight 2 | 01:19 |
| geeps | chili555: can you give me some guidance on that? i have the networkmanager tray icon, but both network interfaces say "disconnected", and unplugging and plugging the ethernet cable back in doesn't trigger networkmanager to do anything like it used to | 01:19 |
| Four2zero | so far i have setup a static ip for the ubuntu netbook running on the same network. | 01:20 |
| dukehunter | screen help? | 01:20 |
| ChogyDan | Trinity33: it is just the name I gave it. ck is the name of the guy that wrote the changes | 01:20 |
| xangua | seanbrystone: moonlight 2 is still beta, you can download it from it's project web | 01:20 |
| Lappie | dang its not working, any suggestions? | 01:20 |
| Four2zero | so how can i view the windows sharefolders. | 01:20 |
| geeps | chili555: i have tried different network cables. the switch is fine---there are other computers connected to it. i also tried different ports on the switch | 01:20 |
| Merritt | Younder, Alright (apparently not installed by default >_>) . I double-checked, this user is a member of the group 'audio' and there is no group 'sound' | 01:20 |
| tiki | doesn't silverlight suck? | 01:21 |
| chili555 | geeps, it sounds a bit complicated, wanna post on the forum and i'll be right there to help you? we need sudo lshw -C network for example and a few other things | 01:21 |
| cfedde | Four2zero: under "palces" you'll see "network" | 01:21 |
| Lappie | i just wanted it so i could watch netflix movies | 01:21 |
| buntu_ | how do you scan your harddrive from a live CD using KlamAV? | 01:21 |
| tiki | you need silverlight for netflix ??!!!?! | 01:21 |
| seanbrystone | xangua, ah ok, thats no prob, I dont know of any software thats NOT beta LMAO, look at all the Google Beta projects | 01:21 |
| ChogyDan | Lappie: netflix wont ever work on linux | 01:21 |
| Lappie | if i remember correctly | 01:21 |
| Four2zero | cfedde, running ubuntu netbook remix. | 01:22 |
| cfedde | Four2zero: ah. missed that. | 01:22 |
| geeps | chili555: the motherboard has two onboard network interfaces... neither of them trigger networkmanager to do anything when i plug a cable in (although the amber led lights up when a cable is plugged in) | 01:22 |
| Lappie | oh, shucks, do you know if theres anything being developed for this? | 01:22 |
| cfedde | Four2zero: I'm not especialy familiar with netbook remix. | 01:22 |
| buntu_ | how do you scan your harddrive from a live CD using KlamAV? | 01:22 |
| chili555 | does sudo lshw -C network show an interface ethXX and a driver? | 01:22 |
| DIL | after install samba you will have to change the smb.conf file to at least reflect your network. it is workgroup by default | 01:22 |
| tiki | Lappie: doesn't xbmc have netflix support? why don't you use that? | 01:22 |
| Lappie | i will deff try it :) | 01:23 |
| PwrSurge | hello, for some reason, I lost the ability to left click with my laptop running ubuntu | 01:23 |

| PwrSurge | but left clicking does nothing | 01:24 |
| Lappie | hmmm xbmc is not in the package manager, how do i get it? | 01:24 |
| ChogyDan | Lappie: I believe it is political, not developer related | 01:24 |
| dukehunter | screen help? | 01:24 |
| PwrSurge | tried connecting an external mouse and same thing | 01:24 |
| DIL | Four2zero, did you install samba | 01:24 |
| PwrSurge | so it's not hardware related | 01:24 |

| pw | Noob question: I want to run machine (Ubuntu 9.04) headless. Got it to boot headless using System->Administration->Services and unchecked GDM. BUT, I need my script to start on boot (used to start on auto login of user pw: /home/pw/.config/autostart/startxgrid.sh.desktop, which was made using GUI). Tried coping startxgrid.sh to /etc/init.d/ . Then did: sudo update-rc.d startxgrid.sh defaults , which added sym link to all /etc/rc.0-6, then tried | 01:24 |
| pw | to: sudo vi /etc/rc.local. If I run /etc/rc.local manually, it works...but NOT during boot. /etc/rc.local is executable. Gone through forums, http://tinyurl.com/embraceubuntu, http://tinyurl.com/1338673 | 01:24 |
| geeps | chili555: there are two listed, yes | 01:24 |
| Four2zero | DIL, Do i have to install Samba on U.N.R and Windows or just U.N.R ? | 01:25 |
| geeps | chili555: they both say *-network DISABLED on the first line | 01:25 |
| PwrSurge | how can I debug the mouse driver? | 01:25 |
| tiki | Lappie: Boxee does, http://www.boxee.tv/ | 01:25 |

| DIL | Four2zero, ubuntu | 01:25 |
| chili555 | geeps, and does either show link=yes | 01:25 |
| xangua | seanbrystone: it's only a plugin, it installs inside firefox | 01:25 |
| Four2zero | No, i have not installed samba yet on ubuntu. | 01:25 |
| Lappie | and i will check out boxee, btw, watch-movies-online.tv is working i think | 01:25 |
| chili555 | geeps, what is the driver? | 01:25 |
| abysse | who know about internet sharing with ubuntu | 01:25 |
| abysse | ? | 01:25 |
| DIL | Four2zero, ok after install samba you will have to change the smb.conf file to at least reflect your network name. it is workgroup by default | 01:25 |
| PwrSurge | anyone? | 01:26 |
| geeps | chili555: yes, they both show "link=yes" under the "configuration" line | 01:26 |
| seanbrystone | xangua, yeah i guess its not easy to install :( | 01:26 |
| seanbrystone | ill stick with flash | 01:26 |
| Guest25955 | do plugins for brasero even exist? | 01:26 |
| xangua | seanbrystone: it is extremely easy :S | 01:26 |

| geeps | chili555: only one is plugged in | 01:27 |
| unitedpotsmokers | hmm everybody is busy... | 01:27 |
| Guest25955 | do plugins for brasero exist? | 01:27 |
| geeps | chili555: it should be eth0 that is plugged in | 01:27 |
| PwrSurge | now I can't alt_tab anynmore | 01:27 |
| PwrSurge | wtf | 01:27 |
| chili555 | geeps, is the dual-booted with any other operating systems?? | 01:27 |
| Guest25955 | sorry for the stupid question | 01:27 |
| geeps | chili555: no | 01:27 |
| Guest25955 | do plugins for brasero exist? | 01:28 |

| abysse | ;) | 01:28 |

| ChogyDan | Lappie: http://developer.netflix.com/forum/read/49086Y | 01:28 |
| unitedpotsmokers | i think my current partition is not efficient. it is because... i only have a root and swap partition. one day if i want to upgrade or format my hard drive, it will erase everything include a home folder. so i want recreate/rebuild a new partition which it has a root, home, and a swap partitions. all these partition will create separately. so next time if i want to upgrade or format a hard drive, i will format a root partition onl | 01:29 |
| unitedpotsmokers | y. so the problem is, what is an ideal size for root, home, and swap partition,on my 10G hard drive... | 01:29 |
| Elrox | Guest25955, brasero sux, install gnomebaker or ANY other | 01:29 |
| Four2zero | pastbin | 01:29 |
| chili555 | geeps, yes, exactly | 01:29 |
| geeps | chili555: each one is showing something that doesn't look natural... one is 7f:7f:7f:7f:7f:7f and the other is fb:fb:fb:fb:fb:fb | 01:29 |
| marenostrum | unitedpotsmokers: Dou you want to do it manually? Why don't you let Ubuntu to decide? | 01:30 |
| unitedpotsmokers | intel core 2 2000mhz, 2GB ddr 2 ram.. | 01:30 |
| geeps | chili555: i have an ubuntu 9.10 alternate install cd here, is there a way to boot from that and test the network connection to see if it's a hardware problem? | 01:30 |
| chili555 | geeps, ouch!! does dmesg | grep -e 8169 -e eth tell you anything interesting? | 01:30 |
| unitedpotsmokers | current swap area - 518mb | 01:31 |
| chili555 | geeps, i dont think the alternate install will run live | 01:31 |
| seanbrystone | xangua, i think i found the 3.0 moonlight plugin :D | 01:31 |
| DodoBird | Did you? I wasn't aware there was one. | 01:32 |
| chili555 | geeps, i am sure you know this, but dont paste your dmesg stuff here; pastebin is your pal | 01:32 |
| ChogyDan | unitedpotsmokers: skip swap, maybe 5G root and 5G home | 01:32 |
| abysse | i can pie in a violon it would be the same (french expression) i'm really becoming crazy with internet connection sharing , do u want me to tell bad things about ubuntu :) ? | 01:32 |
| Elrox | geeps, do you know the hardware you're trying to assess? | 01:33 |
| Lappie | ok, when i dl boxee it said "download error /tmp/boxee..... could not be opened , because the associated helper app does not exist, change the association in your prefs...what so now what? | 01:33 |
| geeps | chili555: nothing out of the ordinary from that grep | 01:33 |
| geeps | Elrox: yes, i know the motherboard | 01:34 |

| rwhr | Hi All, is there an option somewhere to only have the latest version of Ubuntu on the boot list instead of each the in the upgrades? | 01:35 |
| marenostrum | unitedpotsmokers:: Your ram seems very good but disk space is interestingly low. Are you dedicating a partition for dual boot with another OS just to try Ubuntu? | 01:35 |
| abysse | did i mention i need help with ics??? | 01:35 |
| Four2zero | DIL, Since my windows seven is running the main windows home network, what do i put into the workgroup section in the samba configuration tool? | 01:35 |

| marenostrum | unitedpotsmokers: tose are written while you are disconnected: Dou you want to do it manually? Why don't you let Ubuntu to decide? skip swap, maybe 5G root and 5G home . Your ram seems very good but disk space is interestingly low. Are you dedicating a partition for dual boot with another OS just to try Ubuntu? | 01:38 |

| MilitantPotato | unitedpotsmokers: do a 6 gig root, 4 gig home, then create a swap on your home partition | 01:41 |
| unitedpotsmokers | marenostrum, yes.. i will do it manually. so 5G for root and 5G home is good enough? yes i only have 10G left, because i used a lot of space to vista.. maybe i will remove it when ready | 01:41 |
| geeps | chili555: i even disabled them, rebooted, then reenabled them | 01:41 |

| Lappie | now i understand, netflix must have some sort of agreement with microsoft in order 2 user silverlight, and microsoft (as usual) will not allow them to support anyonewse under their agreement. THIS IS EXACTLY WHY UBUNTU WILL BE THE NEW OS FOR THE WORK IN TIME | 01:42 |
| seanbrystone | grrrr how come i can never get any program that uses dumpcap working on 64 bit? totally locks the system up | 01:42 |
| Four2zero | DIL, I see Networks Connections and Network Tools | 01:42 |
| MilitantPotato | unitedpotsmokers: a 6 gig root would be better, would let you install more software | 01:43 |

I am using 9.10 with an RJ45 connection..I read all of the 55 posts about it on the forum, to no aail....any ideas out there | 01:43 |

| Elrox | chili555, gee, thanks... ;-) | 01:44 |
| Four2zero | yes in the "system" tab | 01:44 |
| adamkex | does ubuntu use a SMT kernel by default? | 01:44 |
| Merritt | Hope someone has insight: Fresh install of Kubuntu 9.10, no sound at all. In KMix enabled all channels, none are muted and volume turned up. lspci reports Creative Labs CA0106 Soundblaster. Seems to be loaded fine. aplay -l reports the sound device, Configure Desktop > Multimedia > Device > Test gives no sound, no login sound, no app sounds. Pulse audio is not installed (surprisingly was not by default), ran purge pulseaudio to be sure. Ma | 01:44 |
| Merritt | nually added user to group 'audio'. Still nothing. Ideas? Thanks | 01:44 |

| Elrox | geeps, do lspci -nn and paste that plz | 01:44 |
| unitedpotsmokers | MilitantPotato, ok | 01:44 |
| xcheater3161 | im having graphics problems with Ubuntu | 01:44 |
| Nitsuga | Lappie, there is a very good book on shell scripting. Bash cookbok | 01:45 |
| xcheater3161 | my display randomly cuts off, and i have to restart my entire computer | 01:45 |
| complexity | Lappie: Use google...tons of information.. Google bash linux | 01:45 |
| Nitsuga | Lappie, *cookbook | 01:45 |
| marenostrum | unitedpotsmokers: Under these conditions, yes. Or you may show Ubuntu install CD that 10 GB and let it do whatever it likes. Under normal conditions you may have a 3 GB swap but your space is low. My root now 3.5 GB. so, yes skip swap, 5 root, 5 home under these conditions. | 01:45 |
| unitedpotsmokers | Nitsuga, yes i know that... after installing windows my grub menu lost... :p | 01:45 |
| DIL | Four2zero, is there an application tab | 01:45 |
| adamkex | unitedpotsmokers: www.fs-driver.org for a windows driver which can read ext2 and ext3 partitions | 01:45 |
| adamkex | unitedpotsmokers: but it's far from perfect | 01:45 |
| Nitsuga | Lappie, and for the commands you can use the command "apropos". for example apropos video will list ffmpeg, mplayer, etc. | 01:46 |
| MilitantPotato | Merritt: use asoundconf to set your soundcard | 01:46 |
| marenostrum | unitedpotsmokers: I mean my root's used space is 3.5 GB. so at least 5 would be fine. | 01:46 |
| MilitantPotato | Merritt: Also, if you have an ATI card, make sure snd_hda_intel isn't loaded | 01:46 |

| unitedpotsmokers | hmm.. | 01:47 |
| MilitantPotato | Merritt: you'll need to get the package from jaunty repos, it was removed in karmic | 01:48 |
| marenostrum | unitedpotsmokers: Yes, sure. 2 GB ram is very good. But in an ideal world we give some swap as a habit :-) | 01:48 |
| frankS2 | Hi, how can i connect to /setup a wpa wlan connection from only command line? | 01:48 |
| MilitantPotato | the devs assumed everyone would use pulse, I guess | 01:48 |
| unitedpotsmokers | how to see a status of swap partition...? | 01:48 |
| Nitsuga | unitedpotsmokers, I've never filled my 4GB ram, so I think that with 2GB you can survive "unswapped" | 01:48 |
| MilitantPotato | unitedpotsmokers: swap is rarely touched with 1gig of ram, 2 gigs almost never. | 01:49 |
| Nitsuga | unitedpotsmokers, also some time ago I programmed a script to use windows' pagfile.sys as swap. If you want it I can give it to you. | 01:49 |

| Merritt | MilitantPotato, One odd note, when I run aplay -l it repeats the card's entry 4 times. | 01:53 |
| Nitsuga | unitedpotsmokers, windows also have a swapspace, in a file in C:\pagefile.sys. You can use that file as swap, if your partition isn't fragmented it will have the same performance as a swap partition. | 01:53 |

Basically you need to download (on suse) all the packages from the nomachine site: server, node, client. download the .rpm packages. then use a console to navigate to where they were downloaded and as root do: zypper in <package> and zypper will handle it for you. Do that for all 3 packages. Then all you need do is use the Client from windows | 02:05 |

| blakkheim | !sound | plum | 02:10 |
| ubottu | plum: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 02:10 |
| plum | ubotto: thank you, i will look into this | 02:11 |

| blakkheim | GeekSquid: i was not wrong, he wanted to know if he was running 32bit or 64bit | 02:16 |
| blakkheim | GeekSquid: what you're alluding to is finding out if his cpu supports 64bit or not | 02:16 |
| GeekSquid | blakkheim: he asked if his machine was 64 or 32 not what he was running | 02:16 |
| Quickard | I can not log in to ubuntu because I can not see nor enter anything into the user accounts windows. any help? | 02:16 |
| Four2zero | DIL, okay im able to see ubuntu netbook remix on my windows network but dont have the proper permission to read/write to the directory. | 02:17 |
| === Guest11795 is now known as isp | ||
| GeekSquid | blakkheim: we were both right | 02:17 |
| DIL | Four2zero, shared the folder? | 02:17 |
| ChogyDan | dtcrshr: right click > properties > pixels | 02:18 |
| dewente | Merritt, are you there? | 02:18 |
| Four2zero | DIL, for example: if want to create a new folder in ubuntu netbook remix, it gives me an error: Error while creating directory untitled folder. There was an error creating the directory in smb:///. | 02:18 |
| Merritt | dewente, yes | 02:18 |
| mylisto2 | is there anyway to access a directory on a machine in terminal by right clicking a folder on the machine... | 02:18 |
| mylisto2 | what I mean is this... | 02:19 |
| mylisto2 | O | 02:19 |
| dewente | Merritt, I am trying | 02:19 |
| robb | folders are M$... | 02:20 |
| Merritt | dewente, See #suse | 02:20 |
| mylisto2 | I'd like to be able to get to lets say usr/bin/whatever in terminal by right clicking a folder? | 02:20 |
| TeCH- | joinn #ubuntu-es | 02:20 |
| DIL | Four2zero, from windows? | 02:20 |
| GeekSquid | mylisto2: not all folders are accessable that way, permissions are key ... now you wanted to know if your computer was capable of 64bit> type cat /proc/cpuinfo in terminal | 02:20 |
| robb | terminal doesn't do mouse clicks | 02:20 |
| BGL-[2] | easy way to check current cpu frequency other than cat /proc/cpuinfo ? anyone? | 02:21 |
| plum | how can i scroll up in terminal? it shows the scrollbar as full so i can't scroll by just dragging it | 02:21 |
| Four2zero | from windows and ubuntu. | 02:21 |
| GeekSquid | mylisto2: if i understand correctly, you want to click on a terminal, that won't work | 02:21 |
| Scunizi | plum: page up key | 02:21 |
| mylisto2 | no geeksquid: | 02:21 |
| plum | ah thanks so much Scunizi | 02:21 |
| robb | terminal = keyboard, no mousii | 02:21 |
| Scunizi | plum: are you running screen? | 02:22 |
| mylisto2 | lets say I am on my desktop...and I have a certain folder that I want to work in...while in terminal | 02:22 |
| mylisto2 | I want to be able to right click on it on the desktop/other parts of the computer and be able to drop into the relevant directory tree in terminal | 02:23 |
| DIL | Four2zero, create shares on both and use those;other than that you will have to either read further configuring the smb file | 02:23 |
| dialtone | blakkheim: nope, it doesn't change anything | 02:24 |
| dialtone | still prompts | 02:24 |
| robb | mylisto2, terminal is an interface, like a gui, what you want is a "command prompt here..." sort of option in your gui | 02:24 |
| DrMrHorse | mylisto2: sudo aptitude install nautilus-open-terminal ? | 02:24 |
| mylisto2 | yeah... | 02:24 |
| mylisto2 | thats exactly what I want Robb | 02:24 |
| DrMrHorse | it adds open terminal here to the right click menu | 02:24 |
| robb | drhorse has it then | 02:24 |

| pvl1 | jleeperry, installed the restricted package? | 02:28 |
| blakkheim | Lappie: photoshop does not work in linux | 02:28 |
| Lappie | oh ok, well that makes that simple | 02:28 |
| blakkheim | Lappie: you can try gimp | 02:28 |
| seanbrystone | gimp ftw | 02:28 |
| GeekSquid | Lappie: use GIMP image editor | 02:28 |
| jleeperry | well, it reads as a 5.x meg mp3 package.. | 02:28 |
| Scunizi | seanbrystone: nope | 02:28 |
| Elrox | Lappie, try GIMP | 02:29 |
| jleeperry | restricted package? | 02:29 |
| mylisto2 | DrMrHorse: so I just installed it...do I need to restart my laptop for it to show up when I right click a folder? | 02:29 |
| DrMrHorse | mylisto2: that or log out/log in | 02:29 |
| DrMrHorse | i think. did you try to right click? | 02:29 |
| hunt | mylisto2: you can also pkill nautilus and restart it | 02:29 |
| Lappie | i have tried gimp b4, the reason i use photoshop and psp is some of the features in one are easier in the other, but its ok, im not loosing any features, | 02:29 |

| olskolirc | how do I go from cairo-dock back to my panel in karamic please? | 02:48 |
| jleeperry | I prefer linux, she prefers windows. | 02:48 |
| pvl1 | olskolirc, cario-dock must have a settigns editort | 02:48 |
| Guest48357 | pvl1. i am trying to instal rigs of rod. it stalls in the process. complains about an invalid cmake command. | 02:48 |

| plum | 00:14.2 Audio device [0403]: ATI Technologies Inc IXP SB4x0 High Definition Audio Controller [1002:437b] (rev 01) | 02:48 |
| Elrox | ouyes_, what release are you using? | 02:48 |
| pvl1 | Guest48357, pastebin the error | 02:48 |
| olskolirc | he has gnome-shell and too many cairo-docks and needs to get back to panel | 02:48 |
| DrMrHorse | mylisto2: ok. get winscp for your windows. install. then get the local ip of your virtualbox using ifconfig from a terminal | 02:49 |
| plum | but it does not show this in my volume preferences | 02:49 |
| mylisto2 | ok brb | 02:49 |
| plum | help? :(( | 02:49 |
| pvl1 | olskolirc, find the cairo settings | 02:49 |
| DrMrHorse | mylisto: then use winscp to connect to your virtualbox "computer" and transfer files | 02:49 |
| ouyes_ | Elrox, roll back a few lines will you , i gave the uname -a output | 02:49 |
| hunt | Guest48357: yes but are you sure you need to compile it? maybe there is a binary somewhere | 02:49 |
| ouyes_ | Elrox, Linux ouyes-laptop 2.6.31-19-generic #56-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jan 28 01:26:53 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux | 02:49 |
| ouyes_ | Elrox, xfce, xubuntu 9.10 32-bits | 02:50 |
| olskolirc | thanks pvl1 | 02:50 |
| pvl1 | olskolirc, also does he ahve a panel uptop? | 02:50 |
| richthegeek | Hi, does anyone know the fastest (runtime) way to take a screen dump remotely? | 02:50 |
| olskolirc | ill ask pvl1 | 02:50 |
| richthegeek | "import" takes about a second | 02:50 |
| DrMrHorse | mylisto2: the idea is that your virutal os is consider a different computer on your "network" | 02:50 |

| Elrox | ouyes_, well, i am not sure in xubuntu, but in ubuntu it is System>Preferences>Visual Effects--- NONE | 02:52 |
| ouyes_ | Elrox, any idea? | 02:52 |
| BGL-[2] | think i finally found an app that works | 02:52 |
| mylisto2 | DrMrHorse: ok when I did ifconfig what am I looking vfor? | 02:52 |
| BGL-[2] | its called GkrellM | 02:52 |
| mylisto2 | for? | 02:52 |
| mylisto2 | wmaster0-00? | 02:52 |
| Purpley | I cant run kde partition manager i get Error: "/var/tmp/kdecache-zac" is owned by uid 1000 instead of uid 0. | 02:52 |
| Purpley | Error: "/tmp/kde-zac" is owned by uid 1000 instead of uid 0. | 02:52 |
| Purpley | how do i fix this? | 02:52 |
| BGL-[2] | it's giving cpu freq in realtime | 02:52 |
| Dr_Willis | BGL-[2]: gkrellm and conky are both able to do that. I belive | 02:52 |
| Guest48357 | pvl1: it sayes no such file or command. | 02:52 |
| Dr_Willis | BGL-[2]: proberly other monitors that can also | 02:52 |
| DrMrHorse | mylisto2: "inet addr:" | 02:52 |
| richthegeek | anyone know the fastest program for taking a screen capture? scrot can't crop and import takes an age | 02:52 |
| apeeepaz | I have installed ubuntu sucessfully, how do I ssh to it from another computer? I have installed openssh-server | 02:53 |
| darolu | Purpley: change its owner | 02:53 |
| hunt | Guest48357: dont compile it there is a howto here: http://wiki.rigsofrods.com/index.php?title=Installation_Guide&redirect=no#Ubuntu.2FDebian | 02:53 |
| Purpley | darolu, Why do i need to? Im running sudo shouldnt it run fine? | 02:53 |
| mylisto2 | DrMrHorse: I do this from terminal in linux right? | 02:53 |
| trism | richthegeek: scrot can crop, scrot -s | 02:53 |
| DrMrHorse | mylisto2: yes | 02:53 |
| superman | hi | 02:53 |
| pvl1 | Purpley, you gotta run sudo chown on it, i dont remmeber the exact command for uuid, check man chown | 02:53 |
| mylisto2 | ok found it.. | 02:53 |
| rybl | apeeepaz: 'ssh hostname@domain' | 02:53 |
| richthegeek | trism: ah, couldn't see it in the man page | 02:53 |
| === superman is now known as Guest39050 | ||
| Purpley | pvl1, But im running the command as superuser......isnt superuser allowed in everything normal users are and arent? | 02:54 |
| richthegeek | trism: -s is select. I want to capture the whole screen (window root) | 02:54 |
| darolu | Purpley: man chown | 02:54 |
| DrMrHorse | mylisto2: if you know the local ip of the xp machine you can also use the termial to connect and move the files | 02:54 |
| richthegeek | trism: or more specifcally, my left display (1920x1080 of 3600x1080) | 02:54 |
| Purpley | darulo I need a bit more to go on | 02:54 |
| pvl1 | Purpley, yes but its still owned by whoever it complained about | 02:54 |
| pvl1 | Guest48357, r u trying to compile ogre? | 02:55 |
| darolu | Purpley: in your terminal, type "man chown" so you can learn how to change the file's owner; it demands to be owned by userID 0 | 02:55 |
| Dr_Willis | !chown | 02:55 |
| mylisto2 | DrMrHorse: seems like a pain in the rear...I'm surprised that there is nothing built into virtualbox to allow dragging of files to the guest machine | 02:55 |
| ubottu | The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | 02:55 |
| Purpley | pvl1, When i run it without sudo it wont work because thats normal user, i need elevated permissions because im editing partitions | 02:55 |
| DrMrHorse | mylisto2: its a feature to make sure the two systems dont contaminate each other | 02:55 |
| mylisto2 | ? | 02:56 |
| pvl1 | Purpley, thats correct, and you say it runs when u put in sudo? | 02:56 |
| Dr_Willis | VirtualBox has a lot of neat features that people overlook - becuse they never read the virtualbox docs. :) | 02:56 |
| Purpley | no it runs when i dont | 02:56 |
| DrMrHorse | Dr_Willis: guilty | 02:56 |
| DiploCat | does anyone here use GPASS? | 02:57 |
| pvl1 | Purpley, it should be able to change anything tho | 02:57 |
| pvl1 | *shouldnt | 02:57 |
| Elrox | Purpley, no, it doesnt work that way,,, sudo in Ubuntu is different than other distros,,, if you MUST be root then there are 2 choices,,, 1-choose other distro, 2- do sudo -i | 02:57 |
| Purpley | pvl1, never mind i figured it out btw chown dosent mention uuid | 02:57 |
| pvl1 | Purpley, well good job. i know for a fact tho that chown or chmod work with | 02:58 |
| pvl1 | Purpley, i think it was chmod not chown, my b | 02:58 |
| Dr_Willis | uuid or UID? 2 very differnt things... | 02:58 |
| RussellAlan | how do i burn dvd info from k3b? | 02:58 |
| darolu | Purpley: uid 0 = root, "sudo chown root:root yourfile" | 02:59 |
| DrMrHorse | RussellAlan: what format is it? a disk? an iso? VOB files? | 02:59 |
| Dr_Willis | RussellAlan: clarify wht you mean by 'dvd info' ? | 02:59 |
| DiploCat | gpass lost all my passwords, what a load of junk! | 02:59 |
| Purpley | Why dosent gparted or kde partition manager recognize a ntfs file system? | 02:59 |
| dooglus | when I plug in a camera, it used to ask what to do. I seem to have accidentally told it 'run fspot, and don't ask again' but I want to change my mind. can I? | 02:59 |
| Dr_Willis | Purpley: you dont have the ntfs support package installed. | 02:59 |
| RussellAlan | yes vob | 02:59 |
| Purpley | Wait nvm | 02:59 |
| darolu | Purpley: you need to install ntfs packages | 02:59 |
| BGL-[2] | DrMrHorse: the problem was a lot of apps claim they can give current cpu freq but they don't, i'd went through several | 02:59 |
| Dr_Willis | Purpley: thats a common faq with gparted trying to access ntfs stuff. | 03:00 |
| Dr_Willis | !info ntfsprogs | 03:00 |

| BGL-[2] | that and i'm missing 'add to panel' when i right click on the gnome panel (using 9.10/remix) | 03:00 |
| hunt | Guest48357: still there? | 03:00 |
| Purpley | Dr_Willis, No i probably do, i forgot it technically is a ntfs but its secured with truecrypt so thats why it isnt recognizing it | 03:00 |
| DrMrHorse | RussellAlan: in k3b, you choose "burn video dvd" then drop the VOBs into the VIDEO_TS folder | 03:00 |
| jleeperry | hmm...so can I use handbrake to extract the mp3 from an flv file? | 03:01 |
| Cyber_Akuma | jleeperry: there is a freeware app called flvextract | 03:01 |
| Cyber_Akuma | Its very VERY basic, but it can extract audio and video streams | 03:01 |
| jleeperry | okay...I just want the mp3 from the video... | 03:02 |
| Cyber_Akuma | .... crap, I forgot that im in #ubuntu | 03:02 |
| Cyber_Akuma | nevermind | 03:02 |
| Losha | jleeperry: handbrake is pretty good at handling flvs... | 03:02 |
| DrMrHorse | i use ffmpeg to extract audio from flv | 03:02 |
| jleeperry | right, and I think that it'll work for converting my flv videos for my itouch] | 03:03 |
| KB1JWQ | It does. | 03:03 |
| jleeperry | and I can't use ffmpeg.. | 03:03 |
| KB1JWQ | #handbrake is awesome | 03:03 |
| DrMrHorse | BGL-[2]: maybe this? http://linux.softpedia.com/get/Desktop-Environment/Screenlets/InfoPanel-45620.shtml | 03:03 |
| DrMrHorse | to extract audio from flv, do: ffmpeg -i [videofile].flv -ab 128k -ar 44100 -ac 2 [audiofilenewname].mp3 | 03:05 |
| mylisto2 | DrMrHorse: how do I find the ip of the guest machine? | 03:05 |
| DrMrHorse | mylisto2: guest is linux? | 03:05 |
| DrMrHorse | right? | 03:05 |
| altavatar | Recently I've noticed that some directory names have been changing to random 8-char words. So "Hello World" would change to "H28fha~1". This seems to happen randomly, and only a few dirs are effected. Any ideas? | 03:06 |
| mylisto2 | this is a linux laptop - winxp was just installed on vbox | 03:06 |
| adamkex | does ubuntu use SMT in the kernel by default? | 03:06 |
| DrMrHorse | mylisto2: on windows, open a command line and type ipconfig | 03:07 |
| Flannel | adamkex: Yes | 03:07 |
| AimlessZealot | Anyone feel up to trying to field on my question?:) | 03:07 |
| darolu | altavatar: are those dirs encrypted? | 03:07 |
| altavatar | darolu: yep, the FS is encrypted | 03:07 |
| mylisto2 | oh yeah thats right :d | 03:08 |
| mylisto2 | :D | 03:08 |
| richthegeek | *** fastest way to take a cropped screenshot is *** | 03:08 |
| DrMrHorse | AimlessZealot: not if i dont know the answer. just ask away and we'll all take a crack at it | 03:08 |
| richthegeek | scrot capture.jpg; mogrify -crop 1920x1080+0+0 capture.jpg | 03:08 |

| avatarmonkeykirb | Hi. New to linux. Is there a linux version of "manycam"? | 03:09 |
| darolu | altavatar: thay might be causing it | 03:09 |
| AimlessZealot | I have a problem others have mentioned in the forums : Firefox does not appear to make sounds when running flash-based videos like Youtube. Unfortunately, I have tried every solution I've seen including adding various rc and conf files, and (re)installing audio, flash and firefox components. Any other ideas? | 03:09 |
| mylisto2 | ok DrMrHorse: I got both ip's - do I use them in that winscp program? | 03:09 |
| richthegeek | Elrox: negative. Scrot then mogrify is twice as fast. 0.498s versus 1.082s | 03:09 |
| jleeperry | Sweet, that last ffmpeg command worked...thanks much :) | 03:09 |
| avatarmonkeykirb | if anyone knows, just pm me | 03:09 |
| AimlessZealot | I should state : Yesterday Youtube sound worked perfectly, and the only things I've run since then are eclipse, rythmnbox and blender | 03:10 |
| richthegeek | Elrox: I'm planning to take screenshots very quickly and constantly refresh them on the iTouch/iPhone. Pass back mouse clicks and exec with xdotool | 03:10 |
| Flyzoola | Hi guys. What do you know? Another person with ubuntu problems >___<. I thought being away from it for a couple of years would help it, but alas, it's still a pain in the ass | 03:10 |
| Guest48357 | cant ad deb http://apt.rigsofrods.com/ in apt. can any one help me out? | 03:10 |
| DrMrHorse | mylisto2: on the linux host, make sure openssh-server is install (sudo aptitude install openssh-server). then connect to the linux box by entering the linux ip | 03:10 |
| altavatar | darolu: hm, contents of the dirs look okay, but I think you're probably right. Have you heard anything more about this issue? Or can you point me in any directions? | 03:10 |
| AimlessZealot | Heh Fly, I assume it's because I'm new to linux in general. so far I like Ubuntu, I'm just new and clueless. | 03:11 |
| Flyzoola | Aimless, I've been on/off linux of a couple of years. I got off because it was bs trying to get everything to work right. It caused more headaches than it solved. I just re-download it, and re-instelled 9.10 and it's still being a pain | 03:12 |
| Guest48357 | cant ad deb http://apt.rigsofrods.com/ in APT. help please. | 03:12 |
| DrMrHorse | AimlessZealot: the problem is probably not you | 03:13 |
| darolu | altavatar: out of the regular docs you find with google, I don't know where to find a solution for it; I used to have my /home encrypted but many of my files started to have errors like the one you have and I stopped encrypting it, I never really knew what -exactly- caused it :( sorry | 03:13 |
| AimlessZealot | I don't mind the "getting everything to work right" generally -- I'm a hobbyist programmer.. This frustrates me only because I can't think of a new area to explore short of reinstalling ubuntu. | 03:13 |
| Flyzoola | so here's the problem: Ubuntu just wont boot. It'll show the loading screen for ubuntu (like the windows XP one, with the little line filling up letting you know the OS is starting up) then the screen goes blank, and it the loading screen pops up again | 03:13 |
| mylisto2 | ok DrMrHorse: I just installed openssh-server - this next part I'm at a lost for | 03:13 |
| altavatar | darolu: np, I appreciate the pointer. | 03:13 |
| Flyzoola | it keeps cycling though that, without ever taking me to the login screen. How do I fix this? | 03:13 |
| Guest48357 | cant ad deb http://apt.rigsofrods.com/ in APT. help please. | 03:14 |
| olskolirc | wud you break AimlessZealot ? | 03:14 |
| darolu | altavatar: the real problem is it wasn't a consistent error, some files were fine, others were corrupted | 03:14 |
| AimlessZealot | I appear to have broken Flash's sound. | 03:14 |
| altavatar | darolu: yep, seems about the same here. | 03:14 |
| olskolirc | what version of flash AimlessZealot | 03:14 |
| AimlessZealot | Currently I'm running 10.0 r45 | 03:15 |
| Guest48357 | cant ad deb http://apt.rigsofrods.com/ in APT. help please. any one. | 03:15 |
| olskolirc | thats the newest one | 03:15 |
| jleeperry | i run chrome for my youtube.. | 03:15 |
| AimlessZealot | I did try 10.1 to see if it was something that would be corrected by using the beta, | 03:15 |
| olskolirc | ok AimlessZealot | 03:15 |
| AimlessZealot | No luck. | 03:15 |
| DrMrHorse | mylisto2: ok. in winscp: click "new" add the local ip of the linux box to the "host name" line. enter the user name and the password. click save. click logon. | 03:15 |
| olskolirc | what distro are you on AimlessZealot | 03:15 |
| AimlessZealot | Koala | 03:16 |
| jleeperry | whoops...sorry | 03:16 |
| AimlessZealot | Karmic Koala | 03:16 |
| mylisto2 | thanks so much so far DrMrHorse: | 03:16 |
| mylisto2 | I'm curious | 03:16 |
| olskolirc | Karamic has been know to have sound issues AimlessZealot | 03:16 |
| olskolirc | pulse audio conflict with alsa | 03:16 |
| hunters44 | has anyone tried the new opera 10.5? is it better then chrome? | 03:16 |
| mylisto2 | can't someone just share a folder between the two? | 03:16 |
| AimlessZealot | So might it be beneficial to switch over to the one before this? | 03:16 |
| look | hai, um i just upgraded to Windows 7 right? and my BIOS wont load my grub | 03:16 |
| Eire | is it possible to install both the 32 and 64 bit kernels in Ubuntu and choose between them at boot? | 03:16 |
| DrMrHorse | mylisto2: give it a shot. let me know. | 03:16 |
| olskolirc | try this AimlessZealot instead of reinstalling that won't help. sudo update-manager -d | 03:16 |
| Flyzoola | here's the problem: Ubuntu just wont boot. It'll show the loading screen for ubuntu (like the windows XP one, with the little line filling up letting you know the OS is starting up) then the screen goes blank, and it the loading screen pops up again. It keeps cycling though that, without ever taking me to the login screen. How do I fix this? | 03:16 |
| jleeperry | I'm running chrome 10.10 now, and it seems to be running fine. | 03:17 |
| olskolirc | AimlessZealot, go to Lucid | 03:17 |
| Guest48357 | cant ad deb http://apt.rigsofrods.com/ in APT. help please. any one. | 03:17 |
| olskolirc | Lucid sooooooooo rocks! | 03:17 |
| jleeperry | But I only use it for chat here. | 03:17 |
| olskolirc | I think its ready | 03:17 |
| Purpley | Hey if I just resized my partition and lost half the data, is there a way to recover it? | 03:17 |
| AimlessZealot | I will try that next, thank you olskolirc. | 03:17 |
| DrMrHorse | DITCH KARMIC | 03:17 |
| MilitantPotato | look: Karmic or Jaunty? | 03:17 |
| Purpley | I think i might of canceled it while it was going | 03:17 |
| olskolirc | yw AimlessZealot | 03:17 |
| AimlessZealot | Hunters - I dabbled with it earlier today.. better is a tough one for me. Opera has a more compact display, which I find nice, but not everyone will. | 03:17 |
| look | MilitantPotato: Karmic | 03:17 |
| MilitantPotato | !repairgrub | look | 03:17 |
| MilitantPotato | !grub2 | look | 03:17 |
| ubottu | look: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 03:17 |
| AimlessZealot | It was zippy, but I found it had odd errors with Flash (misalignment of flash components, odd problems using gnash) | 03:18 |
| MilitantPotato | look: you'll need a live CD or ubuntu flash drive | 03:18 |
| Guest48357 | cant ad deb http://apt.rigsofrods.com/ in APT. help please. any one. | 03:18 |
| olskolirc | !neomuck | 03:18 |
| brjann | Eire: no, the difference between 32- and 64-bit linux extends beyond just the kernel to libraries and binaries, too | 03:18 |
| olskolirc | bottu doesn't know neomuck? | 03:18 |
| look | MilitantPotato: i have one | 03:18 |
| AimlessZealot | Ah, that's another thing I meant to ask -- Is there a good reason to avoid 64-bit linux like there is windows? (Forgive my ignorance) | 03:18 |
| MilitantPotato | !info neomuck | 03:18 |
| ubottu | Package neomuck does not exist in karmic | 03:18 |
| Purpley | Hey if I just resized my partition and lost half the data, is there a way to recover it? | 03:18 |
| jleeperry | actually, I just noticed that my sounds do work for flash in firefox...huh | 03:18 |
| Eire | But is it possible to have both installations on the one harddisk without creating another partition? | 03:18 |
| olskolirc | neomuck is a Lucid app | 03:18 |
| olskolirc | im learning what this is | 03:19 |
| AimlessZealot | Jleeperry : Insert envy here. | 03:19 |
| Purpley | Please someone answer me | 03:19 |
| MilitantPotato | look: the guide on that website will let you repair you grub2 | 03:19 |
| olskolirc | what Purpley | 03:19 |
| Purpley | Hey if I just resized my partition and lost half the data, is there a way to recover it? | 03:19 |
| brjann | Eire: no, sorry. they'd clobber each other. | 03:19 |
| AimlessZealot | Purpley, that'd depend on how you resized the partition and a bunch of other things. | 03:19 |
| jleeperry | meh..I've had lots of problems with it in the past before.. | 03:19 |
| AimlessZealot | But most likely, you can expect it to be lost if you used a half-decent tool. | 03:19 |
| jleeperry | like I said though, I just use chrome | 03:19 |
| Guest48357 | Purpley: in windows you would use recuva. try google it. (file recorverin linux. | 03:20 |
| Purpley | I deleted a truecrypt volume so I extended it and it is a fat32 file system | 03:20 |
| darolu | !recover | Purpley | 03:20 |
| ubottu | Purpley: Some tools to recover lost data are listed and explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery - Recovering deleted files on !ext3 filesystems can be virtually impossible, although methods that might work is some cases are described at at http://www.xs4all.nl/~carlo17/howto/undelete_ext3.html and http://projects.izzysoft.de/trac/ext3undel | 03:20 |
| knoppies | I need someones 'professional' opinion on GDM2. I like the functionality the old one has, and Im considering investigating the possibilities of downgrading. Opinions please? | 03:20 |
| olskolirc | well geeze darolu | 03:20 |
| Flyzoola | here's the problem: Ubuntu just wont boot. It'll show the loading screen for ubuntu (like the windows XP one, with the little line filling up letting you know the OS is starting up) then the screen goes blank, and it the loading screen pops up again. It keeps cycling though that, without ever taking me to the login screen. How do I fix this? | 03:20 |
| olskolirc | where can I learn ubottu commands? | 03:20 |
| Purpley | IS there a good chance of recovering data with a fat32 file system? | 03:20 |
| MilitantPotato | Flyzoola: on the grub list (hit escape just after POST if you don't see it) edit the top line, remove quiet and splash, then boot, see if it shows any errors | 03:21 |
| richthegeek | does anyone know how to get the window list with a terminal? | 03:21 |
| Guest48357 | cant ad deb http://apt.rigsofrods.com/ in APT. help please. any one. | 03:21 |
| olskolirc | no Purpley | 03:21 |
| Purpley | like on a scale of 1 to 10 how much? | 03:21 |
| olskolirc | roll it back maybe Purpley with system restore | 03:21 |
| Guest48357 | ( | 03:21 |
| DrMrHorse | sorry Purpley | 03:21 |
| Guest48357 | Purpley: 8 | 03:22 |
| Purpley | It said it was 100% when I Xed out because it stopped responding | 03:22 |
| olskolirc | on a scale of 1 - 10 if rolling it back does't help nothing will Purpley | 03:22 |
| MilitantPotato | Guest48357: just download and install the .deb files | 03:22 |
| MilitantPotato | Purpley: if you've not used the hard-drive, a reasionably good chance | 03:22 |
| Flyzoola | MilitantPotato. can you further explain? Is there any documentation on this? | 03:22 |
| Purpley | But it was never overwritten, I just extended the partition from 105 gigabytes to 236 | 03:22 |
| olskolirc | Purpley, you should try Partition Magic for windows - you can undo any damages while partitioning | 03:22 |
| MilitantPotato | Flyzoola: give me two mins, I'll go do it and confirm the key presses | 03:23 |
| Purpley | olskolirc, I prefer linux anyway its fat32 so when I dualbooted awhile I could access it on windows | 03:23 |
| DcMeese | I got my free 9.10 disk in the mail today! | 03:23 |
| Flyzoola | MilitantPotato, thank you :D | 03:23 |
| mylisto2 | DrMrHorse: the local ip of the linux machine is inet, right? | 03:24 |

| olskolirc | sudo apt-get install gpart | 03:26 |

| MilitantPotato | Guest48357: go too that URL in firefox, click the .deb files | 03:27 |
| MilitantPotato | AimlessZealot: was it you asking for the specific steps? | 03:27 |

| olskolirc | I was reformatting every 3 days until i learned the os | 03:28 |
| Purpley | olskolirc, Can it just write on to this partition or will it overwrite it | 03:28 |
| Crisco | MilitantPotato: Are you by chance from Australia? | 03:28 |
| MilitantPotato | Crisco: nah, US | 03:28 |
| AimlessZealot | MilitantPotato : I was the one asking about possible solutions to the no-sound problem with Flash. | 03:28 |
| olskolirc | Purpley, if there is any info on there, it will destroy it but you can keep your partition settings | 03:28 |
| Crisco | ah I knew someone who had an addiction to potatoes | 03:28 |
| olskolirc | just reformat it Purpley | 03:28 |
| Guest48357 | MilitantPotato: i must be sleepy. were in firefox? do you meen at the http://apt.rigsofrods.com/ | 03:28 |
| Flyzoola | MilitantPotato, were you able to confirm the splash screen cycling error, or they key presses? :o | 03:28 |
| Eire | richthegeek: I am well used to "forcing" things to work in Linux so I should be fine, thank you for your suggestion | 03:28 |
| Crisco | every handle he had was something with Potato in it | 03:28 |
| richthegeek | Eire: I'll try find the specific instructions i used for you | 03:29 |
| MilitantPotato | Flyzoola: Hit esape when it says Grub Loading, on the top entry, hit E, scroll down to the line that contains splash and quiet | 03:29 |
| Purpley | olskolirc, Im not formatting my ubuntu HDD, I have even more priceless stuff on this..... | 03:29 |
| Purpley | well ubuntu partition | 03:29 |
| richthegeek | Eire: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1132275.html | 03:29 |

| Crisco | Anybody ever tried to get a Lexmark X215 MFP to work on Ubuntu 8.10? I searched google all day today and am at the end of my wits.... | 03:29 |
| Flyzoola | MilitantPotato: will it work even if I'm dualbooting XP? | 03:30 |
| MilitantPotato | Flyzoola: that will hide the loading screen, and show everything that is happening, hopefully you'll see the error | 03:30 |
| MilitantPotato | Flyzoola: Does ubuntu or XP load by default? | 03:30 |
| MilitantPotato | Guest48357: Yes, go to that url, download the .deb files | 03:30 |
| Flyzoola | MilitantPotato: Well the PC had XP installed, I just installed Ubuntu on it about an hour ago, and got that error on the splash screen. | 03:30 |
| MilitantPotato | Guest48357: you can install them just like an .exe in windows | 03:30 |
| olskolirc | upgrade Purpley you will be releived | 03:31 |
| MilitantPotato | Flyzoola: did it show in text what the error is? | 03:31 |
| Purpley | What do you mean upgrade? | 03:31 |
| olskolirc | go from Karamic to Lucid with: sudo update-manager -d | 03:31 |
| francis5 | anyone can help me with FTP server permissions please? | 03:31 |
| Crisco | Flyzoola: which version of Ubuntu and which error? Sorry I wasn't in here when you said it. | 03:31 |
| MilitantPotato | Flyzoola: removing splash and quiet will show what the OS is doing as it loads, you may get to see what error is causing it not to load. (Ubuntu at least.) If Windows is the one having issues, I'm not sure. | 03:32 |
| MilitantPotato | Guest48357: Never install .deb or any application you're not sure is 100% safe, by the way. | 03:32 |
| Purpley | olskolirc, I dont uprage until its officaly out of a beta | 03:32 |
| Flyzoola | MilitantPotato: no, like I said, the splash screen just cycles. It'll act like It's gonna take me to the login screen, then it just goes black, and the splash screen loads again. I let it do that for about 5 minutes, without it taking me to login. I'm on 9.10 | 03:33 |
| MilitantPotato | Flyzoola: then do the steps I said, and you'll likely see the error | 03:33 |
| hesh | i upgrade to 9.04 to 9.10 now, graphic card not working | 03:33 |
| olskolirc | me either Purpley as a rule but I took a chance b/c of the Karamic sound issues and I think Lucid is ready to rocks | 03:33 |
| MilitantPotato | Flyzoola: that will tell you where to start, ok? | 03:33 |
| olskolirc | I have no problems, no crashes, no errors and ive been on since last night | 03:34 |
| hesh | is there any way to add some thing in menu.lst and fix it? | 03:34 |
| Flyzoola | MilitantPotato: Sounds good. I'll report back when I have the data needed. Hopefully from there it can be fixed. Thank you! | 03:34 |
| MilitantPotato | hesh: ctrl+alt+f1, login, run sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 03:34 |
| Purpley | Well I dont have any problems with karmic and It may seem great but I dont trust it until ubuntu offically says its good to use | 03:34 |
| olskolirc | im on Kubuntu Purpley - the new gnome is gnome-shell which allows you to download that with the Karamic you are on | 03:34 |
| mylisto2 | DrMrHorse: do I need to generate a key with puttygen? | 03:34 |
| MilitantPotato | Flyzoola: It doesn't save the changes you make, so if you nerf your grub, just reboot | 03:34 |
| olskolirc | youtube for gnome-shell Purpley and see how you like that :-) | 03:35 |
| ekimmargni | If someone wants to request that a package be made available for some software, who could they ask? | 03:35 |

| Purpley | How do i figure out what partition table type I have? | 03:35 |
| olskolirc | the maintainer of that package ekimmargni | 03:36 |
| Flannel | ekimmargni: you mean to get the package in the repos? or to package it? or what? (either way, you probably want to talk to the MOTU, #ubuntu-motu) | 03:36 |

| MilitantPotato | Guest48357: I don't know, you asked how to install those files, that's all I could help with. | 03:43 |

| Flyzoola | MilitantPotato: Is there a big risk in trying to get it to partition through Ubuntu? I've done it in other computers with no problem.. :o | 04:01 |
| OttifantSir | Losha: So that would not disable the possibility to listen, just takes away all config for system sounds, right? | 04:01 |
| MilitantPotato | Flyzoola: Only loss of everything on that partition | 04:01 |
| DcMeese | MilitantPotato: Karmic | 04:01 |
| Losha | OttifantSir: shouldn't affect 'listening' at all. It just removes the sound files that things play when they want to make a noise... | 04:02 |
| MilitantPotato | DcMeese: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Theming | 04:02 |
| brjann | OttifantSir: apparently, you can gksu /etc/gdm/custom.conf and under the [greeter] section add the line SoundOnLogin=false | 04:02 |
| trism | lukeqsee: you can display any sort of text on the desktop you want with conky | 04:02 |

| * matelot does themes affect performance ? | 04:03 | |
| perscitus | How do i reenable ctrl-alt-backspace? | 04:04 |
| MilitantPotato | Flyzoola: doing a real install with ubuntu on its own partition makes for a much faster ubuntu since it's not reading from a file on NTFS | 04:04 |

| OttifantSir | I've installed Firefox 3.6.2pre, along with more extensions than I care to count. No matter, it worked before a reboot. Now it won't start. It does nothing at all. The symlink in /usr/bin points to ../lib/firefox-3.6.2pre/firefox.sh. The file is located in /usr/lib/firefox-3.6.2pre and is set with root as owner and the permission to execute as a program. Any ideas as to why it won't work? | 04:17 |
| DcMeese | MilitantPotato: There is nothing with network in the name in the list. :/ | 04:17 |
| ActionParsnip | MilitantPotato: personally i use wicd or interfaces file but nm-applet is the default in installs etc | 04:17 |

| Guest70458 | Hello i am trying install two .deb packages wich are dependent on on another. how does i solve this. | 04:18 |
| tp43 | Guest70458, dude, are you using redhat or something, what dependencies, maybe you can find your packages in repo instead so it get the right version? | 04:18 |
| OttifantSir | Guest70458: They are dependent, like one won't install until the other is installed, and they both depend on the other? | 04:18 |
| MilitantPotato | DcMeese: Once it's up in the panel, right click it and go to manage connections, then wifi tab, the rest is common for any OS | 04:19 |
| OttifantSir | tp43: Wouldn't that have been solved with the last 5 reboots I've done? | 04:19 |

| DcMeese | Nope null | 04:21 |
| tp43 | OttifantSir, worse comes to worst, you can apt-get remove --purge and the apt-get installa gain | 04:21 |
| Guest70458 | ottifantsir: excactly like you explained it.. | 04:22 |
| tp43 | lat maybe you didn't mount? | 04:22 |
| OttifantSir | tp43: I know that. Problem is, Firefox is one of my most important apps, and I usually use about 6 hours getting all the extensions I need installed. I was hoping to avoid re-installing. | 04:22 |
| ActionParsnip | OttifantSir: sounds like you have a lot of ram, or a slow connection | 04:22 |
| DcMeese | MilitantPotato: I found "network connections" is that correct? | 04:23 |
| brjann | OttifantSir: have you tried running it from the command line, to see if it spits out any errors? | 04:23 |

| MilitantPotato | OttifantSir: How long does firefox take to load for ya? | 04:25 |
| tp43 | OttifantSir, well, I would go with the command line suggestion, and check the errors, to find you problem | 04:25 |

| ActionParsnip | DcMeese: then use iwconfig, you can also use the installation cd to install wicd | 04:30 |
| brjann | OttifantSir: that's what I wanted to know. that "1" means firefox is exiting with an error, though why it isn't reporting that error is a mystery to me | 04:31 |

| Losha | OttifantSir: well now you can 'give back' by filing a bug report I guess... | 04:34 |
| ActionParsnip | DcMeese: add the cdrom under system -> admin -> software sources (if memory serves) | 04:34 |
| ActionParsnip | DcMeese: you can then have your install cd in and install the app from that | 04:35 |
| brjann | ActionParsnip: wait, but what if he uses thunderbird or something? isn't that stored in .mozilla too? | 04:35 |
| OttifantSir | Losha: Seems like that would be a good idea, yeah. Just hoped there was something I could do to get it working. | 04:35 |
| nocturnus | Chill6: how? | 04:35 |
| ActionParsnip | brjann: i think so, i dont use either | 04:35 |
| nocturnus | Chill6: command line | 04:35 |

| DcMeese | Cdrom | 04:37 |
| lat | tp43, thanks for your help. I'm going to reboot now, and try again. | 04:37 |
| OttifantSir | Losha: I was just hoping it was something like with 3.5: running "firefox" started 3.0 and you needed to run "firefox-3.5" to start the newer version | 04:37 |
| Tironn | DcMeese: seems wrong there. | 04:37 |
| Losha | OttifantSir: either way, it's off-topic for this group. Perhaps try #firefox | 04:38 |
| ActionParsnip | OttifantSir: /usr/bin/firefox is just a symlink to /usr/bin/firefox-3.0 | 04:38 |
| brjann | OttifantSir: from the command line you can run firefox -ProfileManager and see if it will let you create a new, empty profile to test with. if it works, something's wrong with your profile. if not, something's wrong with the nightly. that's about all we can do, i think. | 04:38 |
| g44imbisilly | hey. is it possible to generate a grub2 config file using the ubuntu livecd? | 04:38 |

| tp43 | anom01y, shit, did you change partitioning? | 04:41 |
| brjann | Losha: has happened to me before. troubleshooting profile errors is tricky :( | 04:41 |
| anom01y | tp43: ? | 04:41 |
| tp43 | anom01y, hey, I just remembered, I had the grub error when I tried ext4, but when I went back to ext3 I had no problems | 04:42 |
| anom01y | what do you mean ? | 04:42 |
| anom01y | ohh | 04:42 |
| anom01y | yeah I tried that I am trying ext3 now, | 04:42 |

| tp43 | anom01y, I don't know if this is good idea, but usually I make '/' at about 10gig, and a swap about the size of my ram, and then I make the rest /home cause I downloads lots of movies | 04:43 |

| Losha | tp43: same here, though I double the RAM space for swap because I'm old-fashioned... | 04:44 |
| anom01y | I select 'select manual partition' | 04:44 |
| adrian2mil10 | <anom01y> what thing not work ? | 04:44 |
| Flannel | anom01y: Any reason you're manually partitioning? | 04:44 |
| g44imbisilly | My /boot/grub/ directory got erased and i was able to rebuild it with my livecd, but I need to create the grub.cfg. How would I do this on a liveCD? | 04:44 |
| `mOOse` | Flannel sorry - that was supposed to be a /msg | 04:44 |
| anom01y | adrian2mil10: not sure but I get error 15 | 04:44 |
| anom01y | Flannel: I am using the installer, and it asks to select manual partition, underneat 'use entire disk' | 04:45 |
| tp43 | Losha, I used to, but so much swap isn't need these days cause of the size of ram. | 04:45 |
| MilitantPotato | ActionParsnip: Any chance you have the ~/.asoundrc files left over from an upgrade? | 04:45 |
| adrian2mil10 | <anom01y> when you make what is the error ? | 04:45 |
| Flannel | anom01y: Why are you manually partitioning instead of automatically partitioning? | 04:45 |
| anom01y | adrian2mil10: I reboot and try and boot from the install and I get grub error 15 | 04:45 |
| Losha | g44imbisilly: grub.cfg is remade automatically by running update-grub I seem to recall... | 04:45 |

| g44imbisilly | Losha: i'm doing this off a liveCD so doing that runs into problems | 04:46 |
| anom01y | Flannel: because I tried the 'use entire disk' feature from the installer, (made my disk an ext4, and also gave me error 15 at reboot (grub error)) | 04:46 |
| Losha | tp43: that's what they say. I've never understood the reasoning behind it though... | 04:46 |
| adrian2mil10 | <anom01y> only ubuntu is in the partition ? there is only one partition ? | 04:46 |
| Flannel | anom01y: Default is ext4, yes. How many harddrives do you have? | 04:46 |
| Losha | !grub2 | anything here that helps? | 04:46 |
| ubottu | anything here that helps?: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 04:46 |
| anom01y | within the installer I get 3 options for selecting the partition to use, a) install dual boot, b) use entire disk, or c) select partitions manually | 04:46 |
| anom01y | Flannel: 4 | 04:47 |
| Genji | hello all. found a strange problem. ubuntu koala... inside seamonkey and firefox... my website, www.bymtrust.net.nz/acquia (acquia drupal) crashes(i think? or resets?) x11.... i think its images.. as if i turn images off, it works. if i turn them on, a few seconds later, loading them... it crashes. | 04:47 |
| Flannel | anom01y: alright. Are they mixed SATa/PATA? | 04:47 |
| tp43 | anom01y, use the entire disk, or are you planning on multiple OS's? | 04:47 |
| anom01y | Flannel: I have 2 ide's and 2 satas | 04:47 |
| Genji | any ideas why this might be happening? | 04:47 |
| anom01y | tp43: no just Ubuntu | 04:47 |
| anom01y | Flannel: the install is going on an IDE (sda1) | 04:48 |
| tp43 | did you install grub to master boot record? | 04:48 |
| Flannel | anom01y: That's likely the issue. What's happening is they're being reordered by your BIOS (or Linux) and its looking at the wrong one for GRUB. | 04:48 |
| anom01y | tp43: thats in the advanced section near the end | 04:48 |
| anom01y | ? | 04:48 |
| anom01y | Flannel: | 04:48 |
| anom01y | ok | 04:48 |

| coz_ | Genji, none of the links on your site are working here | 04:48 |
| adrian2mil10 | <anom01y> you have 2 ide and 2 sata , maybe you install grub in the wrong disk , check sure the disk boot order | 04:49 |
| anom01y | Flannel: solution ? | 04:49 |
| === zz_FeiRuoWa is now known as FeiRuoWa | ||
| anom01y | ok | 04:49 |
| anom01y | I will try again | 04:49 |

| anom01y | 4th time | 04:49 |
| anom01y | crossing fingers | 04:49 |
| DiploCat | what does it mean in a cron entry when it begins with [ -x command.sh ] ? | 04:50 |
| tp43 | anom01y, probably Flannel has a better solution, but you could unplug all but one drive, and then install on it, and add the others manually after install | 04:50 |
| DiploCat | what is the -x ? | 04:50 |
| Flannel | anom01y: Did you have any other Linuxes installed prior to this? | 04:50 |
| adrian2mil10 | <anom01y> do not lose hope | 04:50 |
| anom01y | yes | 04:50 |

| tp43 | hope is all you ever need | 04:50 |
| Losha | DiploCat: I'm rusty at this, but I think it means "FILE exists and execute (or search) permission is granted" | 04:51 |
| Flannel | anom01y: Alright, what it *might* be is their GRUB is the one you're getting to, and it's looking for an old stage2, and not finding it. | 04:51 |
| brjann | DiploCat: that's a test to exist that command.sh exists | 04:51 |
| brjann | (gah, i can't speak english tonight.) | 04:51 |
| Flannel | anom01y: Make sure GRUB from the Ubuntu installer is installing to the proper drive, and make sure your BIOS is set to boot to that drive | 04:51 |
| anom01y | ok, I think that option was in the installer | 04:51 |
| magn3ts | Any help with this: [AO OSS] audio_setup: Can't open audio device /dev/dsp: Device or resource busy ? | 04:51 |

| tp43 | anom01y, delete all partitions and then repartition | 04:52 |
| Genji | coz_: yah... hmm... go to http://www.bymtrust.net.nz/acquia/content/starflower-gardens | 04:52 |
| adrian2mil10 | <anom01y> maybe is a good idea disconnect the disk what you don't need meanwhile installl | 04:52 |
| tp43 | magn3ts, do you have sound? | 04:52 |
| DiploCat | so brjann and Losha, it's cron syntax (ie. doesn't work in a shell), and what does it do if it doesn't exist? throws an error? | 04:52 |
| DcMeese | ActionParsnip: I'm unmounting disk, u | 04:52 |
| DcMeese | Said that doesn't sound right? | 04:52 |
| coz_ | Genji, I see that | 04:52 |
| Losha | DiploCat: er, it's shell syntax, invoked by cron... | 04:52 |
| magn3ts | tp43, yep that only happens with mplayer, sorry I shouldve been more specific | 04:53 |
| MilitantPotato | ActionParsnip: Guess you've been on google yea? common issues are ~/.macromedia | 04:53 |
| MilitantPotato | not being owned by your user, and asoundconf not having the right card set to default, good luck though, heaps of other reasons | 04:53 |
| brjann | DiploCat: no, that would in fact work in a shell. and no, it wouldn't necessarily report an error, it depends on what the rest of the cron command is | 04:53 |
| tp43 | magn3ts, if sound works, than you are golden | 04:53 |

| co25mkemang | please help us | 04:54 |
| Losha | DiploCat: like brjann says, it depends what the rest of the script says... | 04:54 |
| tp43 | magn3ts, man mplayer, and find there is an option that will make it less verbose | 04:54 |

| kris_ | Hi. I'm running Karmic, and am trying to get a joystick to work. After some searching, I found out that reverting to the 2.6.28-14 kernel would "fix" the problem, but I can't find that kernel in the karmic repository. Can someone help me revert back to 2.6.28-14, please? TIA | 05:00 |
| PwrSurge | it's an issue with ubuntu | 05:00 |
| te_ | anom01y: I use it and am happy with it. Some say it is not as stable. | 05:00 |
| anom01y | thanks guys, its already using ext4 | 05:00 |
| anom01y | (er installing to ext4, so thats good) | 05:00 |
| magn3ts | tp43, ... its only when something is using the sound device | 05:01 |
| anom01y | didn't want to reinstall as ext3 | 05:01 |
| magn3ts | which is what mplayer is claiming is the problem | 05:01 |
| te_ | anom01y: But I have yet to experience a failure. | 05:01 |
| Paine | so i clicked on the date and time on my bar up top, now both top and bottom bars are unresponsive.... something i can do to restart them ? | 05:01 |
| tp43 | magn3ts, yeah, thats what I mean, I have a movie playing and I run that command, and I get nothing | 05:01 |
| Out_Cold | anom01y, unless you are a hard power user you probably would never notice the difference | 05:01 |
| mylisto2 | exit | 05:01 |
| Losha | anom01y: I would use ext3 as it's compatible with pretty much any linux system, including various 3rd party recovery tools... | 05:01 |
| magn3ts | tp43, :/ | 05:01 |
| Red_HamsterX | te_, the only case in which it could be unstable is if your system crashes hard while writing to disk. | 05:01 |
| PwrSurge | Paine: CTRL_ALT_BACKSPACE | 05:01 |
| mylisto2 | haha..whoops, not terminal | 05:01 |
| tp43 | magn3ts, do you have any media, try to play it | 05:01 |
| te_ | Red_HamsterX: Thans for that bit of info.. | 05:02 |
| Paine | PwrSurge: not doing anything | 05:02 |
| Red_HamsterX | And, even then, the filesystem itself would be fine. It would just run the risk of *maybe* corrupting the file it was working on. | 05:02 |

| fivetwentysix | i have to type this command: export PATH=/var/lib/gems/1.9.1/bin:$PATH | 05:03 |
| fivetwentysix | everytime | 05:03 |
| fivetwentysix | i boot up | 05:03 |
| Jon- | kris_: Don't tell me to RTFM, if I hadn't been doing this for an hour I wouldn't be on here. | 05:03 |
| fivetwentysix | Is there anyway around this? | 05:03 |
| tp43 | magn3ts, it works? | 05:03 |
| magn3ts | tp43, in VLC yeah, but I want mplayer to work because it uses my hardware acceleration | 05:04 |
| kris_ | Jon-: Sorry, working on getting my own problem solved, so I didn't have too much time. Still, I figured that it might help. | 05:04 |
| adrian2mil10 | <PwrSurge>CTRL_ALT_BACKSPACE not eneable by default in karmic | 05:04 |

| olskolirc | how do I come out of gnome-shell and get back to gnome | 05:05 |
| tp43 | magn3ts, mplayer doesn't install so good on Ubuntu, I am not sure what I did wrong, in Debian it works fine and vlc isn't so great, but on Ubuntu, vlc works great, and mplayer is not so good. But I have sound in mplayer. Do you know how to turn up the volume in mplayer it is the ) key | 05:05 |
| Red_HamsterX | olskolirc, what do you mean by 'gnome-shell'? | 05:05 |
| Paine | adrian2mill0: so how do i get the top and bottom bars in ubuntu to start responding again | 05:05 |
| tp43 | Losha, his sounds works fine, it was mplayer giving him problems | 05:05 |
| magn3ts | tp43, I built it myself, scrolling up in mplayer increases the volume and I know its set reasonably as well :{ | 05:06 |
| adrian2mil10 | Paine > if CTRL_ALT_BACKSPACE not enable , try CTRL_ALT_F1 log in the console and kill gdm | 05:06 |
| Losha | tp43: how odd. I use mplayer for pretty much everything (except dvd menus)... | 05:06 |
| magn3ts | :( I wish my mplayer worked :( | 05:07 |
| tp43 | Losha, I think when I installed it I got carried awayed and installed too much | 05:07 |
| kris_ | Looking for someone who could help me to revert back to the 2.6.28-14 kernel on karmic, please. TIA | 05:07 |

| kris_ | Jon-: Ya. Should be very basic ones on Samba website. It might be that you have too many features enabled. Try using a default one first, and then adding options on top of it? | 05:09 |

| tp43 | Paine you were a windows boy, now you are an Ubuntu free man, how does it feel, to be freed of slavery? | 05:19 |
| Jon- | kris_: Where the hell do I get the driver? HP only has one for non-networked printers and it's not included in list of drivers from Windows. | 05:19 |
| kris_ | Jon-: What's the name of your printer again? | 05:20 |
| adrian2mil10 | <tp43> why you think what he not feel free in windows ? | 05:20 |
| magicvibe | hello | 05:20 |
| magn3ts | never mind, I got it | 05:20 |
| Jon- | kris_: After installing the driver, it still says the driver from the ubuntu server is wrong, and then prompts to pick a driver. I just need the friking cab file. Sigh. | 05:20 |
| Paine | tp43: ha it will feel great when i get some sort of a grasp on it all.... | 05:20 |
| tp43 | Those MS fackers have their systems built with thousands of backdoors | 05:20 |
| grzegorz | hello | 05:20 |
| Jon- | kris_: HP All-in-one Deskjet F4180 | 05:20 |
| kris_ | Jon-: Have you tried the box that it came in? | 05:20 |
| Jon- | kris_: I have no fucking idea where it is, and again, that'd be a software CD when it | 05:21 |
| kris_ | Ok. Download the non-networked driver for that printer from the HP website. | 05:21 |
| Jon- | kris_: done and intalled | 05:21 |
| tp43 | Paine, what grasp, you are not learning King fu here, it is just a computer, all I do is click firefox, type in porn in google, and bang, masterbation | 05:21 |
| kris_ | Still problems? | 05:21 |

| kris_ | Jon-: Also, please use more respectful language. | 05:21 |
| Jon- | kris_: I browse to the printer, windows says that the driver from the remote printer is wrong, brings me to the list of drivers again that came with xp [all outdated ofc], or otherwise looks for a disc with the .cab file | 05:22 |
| adrian2mil10 | <Paine>you can reboot ?? | 05:22 |
| Paine | tp43: also my first day using IRC.....as long as no one talks me into a sudo rm -rf / ill be ok | 05:22 |
| anom01y | Flannel, problem solved. I unplugged all my HD's except the primary, | 05:23 |
| kris_ | Jon-: Ok. Sounds like the Ubuntu server is serving up the driver, and the Windows machine isn't liking it for some reason. I am at a loss. | 05:23 |
| anom01y | then ran the installer | 05:23 |
| Flannel | !danger | Paine | 05:23 |

| Paine | tp43: the biggest thing for me is installing new things | 05:24 |
| Jon- | kris_: Solved, the driver was placed under Hewlett-Packard in the list as opposed to HP, where all the other drivers were. | 05:24 |
| kris_ | adrian2mil10: Looks like you're getting busy. Are you still available to help please, or too overwhelmed? :-) | 05:24 |

| Surrador | is there something special I should do | 05:24 |
| Surrador | ? | 05:24 |
| tp43 | Paine, you know whats cool, cairo-dock, sudo apt-get install cairo-dock, it is like the mac style of launcher, and also, you can turn on compiz, then you get wobbly windows and other effects. Not only that, I have it set up so when I click the left side of the screen it zooms out all windows, and when I click the right side, I can scrool through all open windows. Its sweet, I don't ever need the panel onscreen, so I keep set to autohide | 05:25 |
| adrian2mil10 | <kris_>what happens | 05:25 |
| tp43 | Paine, you can use add/remove programs, except, instead of downloading programs from unscrupulous vendours, they are all there for you to just check off from sage and secure sources | 05:25 |
| abhifx | hi there! i am not getting the maximise and minimizebuttons on my windows... an someone help me plz? | 05:25 |
| Jon- | kris_: That was the HP install that put it there, they chose the vendor label when they installed the driver. Bash less pl0z ;D. Thanks | 05:26 |
| Paine | tp43: is there a way to search through all the stuff available in apt-get ? | 05:26 |
| kris_ | adrian2mil10: dmesg recognizes that the joystick is plugged in, but jscal doesn't show any movement. | 05:26 |
| kris_ | Jon-: :-) Your welcome. Enjoy! | 05:26 |
| tp43 | Paine, apt-cache search whatever, but you can scrool through them in add/remove programs | 05:26 |
| kris_ | That's on .31-19. | 05:27 |
| Paine | tp43: you mean the ubuntu software center ? | 05:27 |
| adrian2mil10 | <ubottu> mv ~/* /dev/null | 05:27 |
| Paine | tp43: i dont think i have an add/remove programs | 05:27 |
| kris_ | Bah! | 05:27 |
| tp43 | Paine, yup, my bad, also there is synaptic package manager, which is same thing. And then you can do apt-cache search | 05:27 |
| kris_ | adrian2mil10: Don't delete his brain! | 05:27 |
| Paine | Why are my aliases not saving when i restart ? | 05:28 |
| adrian2mil10 | <kris_>you have a usb joystick ? | 05:28 |
| kris_ | adrian2mil10: Yep. | 05:28 |
| tp43 | Paine, what aliases, you are more advanced than me it seems | 05:28 |
| kris_ | adrian2mil10: Saitek X52. Google it, and you'll see what I was talking about with 2.6.28-14. | 05:29 |
| Andre_Gondim | Paine, put then in ~/.bashrc | 05:29 |
| adrian2mil10 | <kris_>you make a google search for you joystick model and ubuntu ? | 05:29 |

| adrian2mil10 | kris and you have 2.6.28-14. installed ?? | 05:30 |
| Paine | aliases are used so you can shorten terminal commands | 05:30 |

| Andre_Gondim | Paine, there are many example at ~/.bashrc to copy it | 05:31 |
| Andre_Gondim | Paine, you have, but is hide file | 05:31 |
| Andre_Gondim | Paine, in your home folder do ls -la | 05:31 |

| wcGary83 | it just started, could it be an update? (transmission itself didn't update today...) | 05:32 |
| Paine | ah i see it | 05:32 |
| adrian2mil10 | kris and you try with backport modules | 05:32 |
| kris_ | adrian2mil10: Not sure what you mean there. | 05:33 |
| wcGary83 | also, why the hell doesn't a program completely uninstall? (even if using synaptic complete removal!) I reinstall, and all the torrents are still listed! | 05:33 |

| mtx_init | add them to your .bashrc file | 05:34 |
| kris_ | adrian2mil10: You mean install linux-image-2.6.29-14 from backport modules? | 05:34 |
| kris_ | adrian2mil10: That's what I don't know how to do. | 05:34 |
| abhifx | tp43, i turned off the compiz recently though | 05:34 |

Cause they are different themes, some use different button styles, some put them on the left, some on the right..., but with compiz, sometimes the bar is missing altogether, if you turn on/off some of those windowing features, it fixes it | 05:36 |

| Paine | mtx_init: terminal command to add them to it ? | 05:38 |
| kris_ | Jon-: Have a look at the scripts in the directory /etc/init.d/ ... those are all of the services you have available, and must daemons can be run from there. | 05:38 |
| tp43 | Paine, edit the file | 05:38 |

| tp43 | abhifx, oh thats means it is off like you said | 05:48 |
| bazhang | Surrador, not here | 05:48 |
| Surrador | At first I beleived the excuses of slavery and oppression for the misbehavior and low test scores | 05:48 |
| Flyzoola | So... does anybody know how to fix the problem I am having? I thought Ubuntu was "easy to use" and whatnot... | 05:48 |
| abhifx | tp43, hmm.. | 05:49 |
| Surrador | but gradually I realized that the fecal beasts are just inferior | 05:49 |
| dyess002 | abhifx: i have the same problem in gnome, i am trying out KDE and don't have that problem | 05:49 |
| adrian2mil10 | <Surrador> what you talking about ?? | 05:49 |
| dsnyders | adrian2mil10, Surrador was kicked off. | 05:49 |
| mkey | u can play around with editing grub i believe not sure what line to change. | 05:49 |
| abhifx | dyess002, but i am not giving up ;) | 05:49 |
| dsnyders | Flyzoola, I just joined. What problem are you having? | 05:50 |
| adrian2mil10 | <dsnyders>yes i see | 05:50 |
| Flyzoola | dsnyders. I installed Ubuntu through wubi (not my computer, so reformatting/partitioning is out of the question), and it wont load past the splash screen (the one with the little bar that shows the OS loading). A mouse pointer appears for a split second, which leads me to believeI'm about to be brought to the login screen, but it just cycles back to the splash screen. Why does this happen, and how can I fix it? | 05:50 |
| dsnyders | Flyzoola, Are you wanting to play around with Ubuntu? | 05:51 |
| binarycortex | # Appears as ANNA | 05:52 |
| dyess002 | abhifx: I try every now and them to fix it but no one has been able to help, I have uninstalled Compiz and Emerald completly and that still didnt work | 05:52 |
| celthunder | Flyzoola, can you get to telinit 1? | 05:52 |
| tp43 | abhifx, I am stumped, do you know how I can remote connect to your desktop, or can I see a screenshot somehow? | 05:52 |
| abhifx | tp43, hey man... thx for trying so hard :) | 05:52 |
| abhifx | tp43, my net is just too slow for any remote connect | 05:53 |
| Flyzoola | dsnyders: no,but this PC is outdated, and it belongs to my cousin. It's slow on Windows XP, and years ago I had Ubuntu on my PC. I want to install Ubuntu so I may use that OS, and my cousin can use Windows. He has a lot of data, which would be a pain to back up (because he has no DVD burner), so I figured "install wubi so you can use that" | 05:53 |
| abhifx | dyess002, hmm... emerald... i havent tried installing it... maybe that could solve it.. | 05:54 |
| dsnyders | Flyzoola, I tried wubi once, and it worked fine for me, so I never had to diagnose anything. I won't be able to help with it. | 05:54 |

| kris_ | adrian2mil10: Double and triple checked. The operation "sudo apt-get install linux-image-2.6.28-14-generic" fails because it cannot find the package. I verified that "sudo apt-get update" did in fact download the package lists and submitted them to the cache for updating, which compleeted successfully. | 05:54 |
| dyess002 | abhifx: which one do you use?? | 05:54 |
| Flyzoola | celthunder: define telinit 1? I can get past the grub screen (telling me that I need to select OS, giving me the option of Ubuntu recovery, windows xp, and ubuntu generc) and to the splash screen. | 05:55 |
| tp43 | abhifx, why don't you try and turn compiz back on and see if it works then? | 05:55 |
| adrian2mil10 | kris wait | 05:55 |
| dsnyders | Flyzoola, if all you want to do is use ubuntu when you're at your brother's, perhaps you should consider a usb flash based version (http://www.pendrivelinux.org) | 05:55 |
| petsounds | hi guys.. is it possible to install memenu in karmic? thanks | 05:55 |

| anom01y | tp43, I unplugged all the hd's I wasn't using until after the installation | 05:57 |

| abhifx | tp43, :) | 05:57 |
| Flyzoola | celthunder: what is telinit 1? | 05:57 |
| celthunder | Flyzoola, user mode 1 | 05:57 |
| celthunder | so it should throw you in a terminal | 05:57 |
| anom01y | http://pastebin.ca/1822323 | 05:57 |
| celthunder | instead of loading the graphical crap | 05:57 |
| anom01y | that is my jockey.log file | 05:57 |
| celthunder | then you can check the logs etc and see what it's doing | 05:57 |
| adrian2mil10 | <kris_>forget the command line if you is not accustomed , use synaptic | 05:58 |
| celthunder | you can look up how to get to there from grub it's fairly easy | 05:58 |

| gluonman | I'm trying to dualboot a Macbook 4.1 with Ubuntu 9.10. I'm having difficulty resizing the Mac partition. I was wondering if anyone had experience with this. | 05:58 |
| dsnyders | Flyzoola, linux has several startup modes: single user text, single user graphics, multi user text, etc. It is controlled by the init process. telinit 1 converts the system to single user text mode. | 05:58 |
| davidson_1971 | Bye. | 05:58 |
| Flyzoola | Celthunder: well, when the OS is loading, if I press esc it will take me to the login screen for a brief second, before cycling back to the OS loading screen | 05:59 |
| kris_ | adrian2mil10: Actually, I'm more comfortable with apt-get than synaptic, but I just am not familiar with backports. | 05:59 |
| Flyzoola | dsnyder: I deleted splash and quiet, and it showed me no errors. MilitantPotato suggested I tried that | 05:59 |
| celthunder | flyzoola http://www.gidforums.com/t-1472.html | 05:59 |
| celthunder | Flyzoola, do that | 06:00 |
| kris_ | adrian2mil10: Ok. I have 2.6.31 installed from subversions 14-19. | 06:00 |
| kris_ | adrian2mil10: Currently booted in -19. | 06:00 |
| Flyzoola | celthunder: are the steps the same though, even though that's not an ubuntu guide? :o | 06:01 |
| adrian2mil10 | ok kris if you want make a apt-get linux-backports-modules-2.6.31-19-generic | 06:01 |
| celthunder | Flyzoola, yes | 06:01 |
| adrian2mil10 | if you have this | 06:01 |

| torasuku | bazhang, arand, thank you. Was just wondering about the themes themselves. | 06:03 |
| kris_ | adrian2mil10: Ok. I am entirely unfamiliar with the backports. What is it that I am installing exactly? | 06:03 |
| celthunder | Flyzoola, did that work? | 06:03 |

| celthunder | Flyzoola, i had that problem just had to go and setup my own xorg.conf in single user mode | 06:06 |
| celthunder | flyzoola fixed it just fine | 06:06 |
| Flyzoola | dsnyders: none at all. Everything went smoothly. Though I used DownThemAll! to speed up the process | 06:07 |
| Flyzoola | clethunder: what do you mean "set up my own xorg.conf in single user mode"? Does that mean I have to manually configure my account through text to access the GUI? | 06:08 |
| robb | in general, seems a lot of problems with X still | 06:08 |
| dsnyders | Flyzoola, I'm not familiar with Download ThemAll. It *MAY* have interfered. | 06:08 |
| celthunder | flyzoola yeah ubuntu uses hal so it's fairly easy | 06:09 |
| Flyzoola | dsnyders: it's a firefox plugin, sort of like a download accelerator. | 06:09 |

| adrian2mil10 | <kris_>well , maybe the only solution it's a kernel downgrade | 06:23 |
| Losha | goose: touch /forcefsck before reboot | 06:23 |

| celthunder | Flyzoola, did it keep rebooting? | 06:28 |
| dsnyders | Flyzoola, is it the windows bootloader that is acting up? | 06:29 |
| Flyzoola | celthunder: check out what it said "minimal bash-like line editing supported" and it told me to press TAB for commands, which I did, and they all looked like chinese to me (I didn't understand what they meant) so I pressed "boot" and it told me "no kernel loaded" | 06:29 |
| Flyzoola | dsnyders: no, no problem with windows starting up at all. It's just ubuntu that keeps cycling back to the splash screen. | 06:29 |
| celthunder | Flyzoola, then you didnt get into the recovery terminal | 06:30 |
| celthunder | youo never got out of grub | 06:30 |
| celthunder | you sure you did that right? | 06:30 |
| dsnyders | Flyzoola, I'm going to let celthunder take it from here so you won't be getting conflicting and/or confusing advice. | 06:30 |

| zetheroo | man ... now I am being asked to change my password on Ubuntu One ... and the criteria for a new password is pretty high ... a bit annoying as I really liked my past password | 06:34 |
| dsnyders | Flyzoola, Yes. You could use a program to shrink the windows partition by 10G and then install ubuntu in the vacated 10G | 06:35 |
| Flyzoola | dsnyders: What application may I use for this? Seems like the easiest way around. Because it's starting to give me a headache haha | 06:35 |

| Tecan | what text labels ? | 07:00 |
| claws | chill6: tell me about it :) | 07:00 |
| Losha | guest1: Basically because someone has compiled them for you and put them on the web for you to download to save you time & effort.... | 07:00 |
| guest1 | So what is the benefit to compiling the source? Seems like a huge waste of time | 07:00 |
| Tecan | fsckroot try gconf-editor | 07:00 |
| fsckroot | Tecan: thanks | 07:00 |
| adrian2mil10 | <dyess002> you don't have the options in you logon screens ?? | 07:00 |

| Losha | guest1: it's a religious thing... | 07:03 |

| dyess002 | karmic sorry for my ignorance | 07:04 |
| guest1 | Losha: lol. It seems like it is. I tried installing Gentoo on an old laptop I have and it was an epic fail. Compiling a kernel and then getting all the files was no easy task. | 07:04 |
| quietone | TUIemailclent: worked for eth0 but for wlan0 I get SIOCSIFFLAGS: Unknown error 132. Mean anything? | 07:04 |
| adrian2mil10 | <dyess002>if you try close your session when restart what happens ?? | 07:04 |
| psycho_oreos | quietone, which chipset? | 07:05 |
| Chill6 | fskroot: are you trying to disable the text preview | 07:05 |
| dyess002 | it goes directly to matchbox | 07:05 |
| Losha | guest1: for some people, it's a learning experience. You've certainly learned it's more trouble than it's worth. That's quite a valuable lesson in itself... | 07:05 |
| TUIemailclent | quiettone: try sudo ifconfig wlan0 up then try iwlist wlan0 scan | 07:05 |

| dyess002 | I have kde and gnome and several others | 07:07 |

| Chill6 | fskroot: are you trying to disable text preview in gnome | 07:08 |
| guest1 | Just out of curiosity, is anyone else here having issues with suspend and/or hibernate? | 07:08 |
| adrian2mil10 | <dyess002> what others ? | 07:08 |
| fsckroot | Chill6: no, the text labels beside icons | 07:08 |

| Chill6 | fskroot: try this gconftool-2 --type string --set /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_icon_text never | 07:09 |
| Losha | guest1: suspend/hibernate is one of the classic trouble spots (the others are sound and flash)... | 07:09 |

| abhi_nav | that xxx mIRC today again sends me spam in pm. telling me to use their IRC. I suggest ops to completely ban this user mIRC. channel operators, please look this. | 07:09 |
| saurabh | i have a ubuntu server 91.0 installed on one of my desktops | 07:09 |
| saurabh | and as u know it doesnt have a gui | 07:10 |

| saurabh | so how do i change or check ip... | 07:10 |
| dehqan | Chill6: libc6 is upgraded what do you mean ? | 07:10 |

| saurabh | i am unable to connect to the net | 07:10 |
| abhi_nav | saurabh: you want help installing gui? | 07:10 |
| saurabh | thats the problem | 07:10 |
| TUIemailclent | saurabh: check ip with ifconfig and renew ips with sudo dhclient | 07:10 |
| fsckroot | Chill6: I had it setup on my eeepc running 9.10; though can't find anything similar on 10.04 | 07:10 |
| brjann | Mage_Dude: ah, i gotcha. take a look in the /sys/bus/usb/devices/*/power/ directories, where * is the USB ID in question | 07:10 |
| saurabh | yup | 07:11 |
| === Guest11795 is now known as isp | ||

| raj | guest1: why dont you make a better OS? | 07:11 |
| abhi_nav | should i need to pay to xchat or feenode to use their services? | 07:11 |
| Mage_Dude | brjann: Cool, Pretty sure it's 4-1 | 07:11 |
| Losha | guest1: in principle you could, but neither of those are debian derivatives, so there's little guarantee of compatibility, even if you knew which config files to look at... | 07:11 |

| dehqan | after upgrading libc6 on ubuntu 9.04 , after reboot , ubuntu does not boot complete , and gives mountall error in the middle of booting , how to fix it ? | 07:11 |

| brjann | !google | Mage_Dude | 07:12 |
| ubottu | Mage_Dude: While Google is useful for helpers, many newer users don't have the google-fu yet. Please don't tell people to "google it" when they ask a question. | 07:12 |
| guest1 | Losha: Is it something in the kernel, or would it be a config file? I searched as much as I could and it seems as if no one can really understand it | 07:12 |

| dehqan | Chill6: ping | 07:13 |
| rithy | Who know where can I find Ubuntu Server documents or ebook? | 07:13 |
| brjann | Mage_Dude: then look in /sys/bus/usb/devices/4-0:1.0/power/ . inside that directory should be a couple of sysfs "files," which are actually filesystem links to driver inputs and outputs | 07:13 |
| Losha | guest1: my understanding is it's a kernel function, and not really adjustable by mortals... | 07:13 |
| abhi_nav | Losha: then why the user mIRC is spamming in my pm? and why chennel ops are not banning him? is it the policy of freenode or xchat to allow other irc to advrtise here to earn money? | 07:13 |
| abhi_nav | Mage_Due: pls read above mesg ^^^ | 07:14 |
| guest1 | Losha: lol, that makes sense. I really hope 10.04 fixes that. | 07:14 |
| Losha | guest1: like I say, it's a classic trouble spot.... | 07:14 |
| Mage_Dude | brjann: Lots' of cool stuff... level, wakeup, persist... power/level seems likely? | 07:14 |
| abhi_nav | should I call ops? | 07:15 |
| Mage_Dude | abhi_nav: Easiest way is to just /ignore the person and they will stop spamming you | 07:15 |
| Losha | abhi_nav: sometimes there are spammers. Try /ignore | 07:15 |
| abhi_nav | is it the command /ignore? | 07:15 |

| abhi_nav | how to use that commnad? i just types /ignore mIRC but it didnt work | 07:15 |

| brjann | Mage_Dude: looks like you can write "suspend" to power/level to shut it down, and "on" or "auto" to turn it back on. but "suspend" will stop working after kernel 2.6.32 apparently. | 07:24 |

| claws | brjann: ah..ok... cuz i installed Ruby and got that at the end. But i cant find any shortcuts to the program.. do i have to make one ? or do i need to reinstall? | 07:30 |
| sjuxax | and your bluetooth should be working by deafult | 07:30 |
| Mage_Dude | brjann: Well, I can't quite figure out the correct command to overwrite the level file. Tried a few combinations of What you suggested plus what I read in the threads | 07:30 |
| ahmed_ | what is it? | 07:30 |
| pshr_ | !upgrade | 07:30 |
| ubottu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 07:30 |
| sjuxax | ahmed_: It depends on your hardware | 07:31 |
| abhi_nav | !details | saurabh | 07:31 |
| ubottu | saurabh: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 07:31 |
| sjuxax | it should be loaded automatically | 07:31 |
| brjann | Mage_Dude: the threads were wrong. sudo sh -c "echo suspend > /sys/bus/usb/devices/.../power/level" should work... | 07:31 |
| ahmed_ | i have laptop toshiba | 07:32 |
| === star is now known as Guest96721 | ||
| sjuxax | ahmed_: OK. You have to be more specific than that, include model numbers, pastebin the output of lspci | 07:32 |
| sjuxax | but I am going to go now so I can't help anymore | 07:32 |
| brjann | claws: i don't know if there'd be a shortcut for the ruby interpreter, but i'm not sure | 07:32 |
| sjuxax | You should try making a thread on ubuntuforums.org | 07:32 |
| Mage_Dude | brjann: Hmmm, it does change the contents, but the device is still on... | 07:33 |
| === Guest96721 is now known as star3am | ||
| brjann | Mage_Dude: well, it's possible that interface simply asks devices to do their own power management, which a dumb device like a fan wouldn't do | 07:33 |
| sjuxax | ahmed_: You might have to turn on Bluetooth support on your device, and you might need to right click on a bluetooth-looking icon that should be in tray | 07:33 |
| sjuxax | bye | 07:34 |
| brjann | claws: try typing irb at the command line | 07:34 |
| kthomas_vh | any tips for installing php 5.3.0 on Karmic other than Rob Searles instruction? | 07:34 |
| Mage_Dude | brjann: Well, ti was worth a try. Thanks for teaching me something cool :) | 07:34 |

| saurabh | on ubuntu server 9.10 i hv changed my ip with ifconfig command....now am able to recieve and send packets...but now when i use apt-get install ubuntu-desktop it says no package found | 07:38 |
| Moat | I dual boot windows xp and ubuntu on my computer, but i wanna remove the windows xp partion on my computer | 07:38 |
| Moat | how? | 07:38 |
| Merovingian | Moat, use GParted live cd | 07:38 |
| Mage_Dude | saurabh: I think you may want the 'gnome' desktop package? I think it may be 'gdm' | 07:38 |
| Merovingian | saurabh: you can search for it. sudo apt-cache search gnome desktop | 07:39 |
| ahmed_ | please, i need bluetooth driver for laptop toshiba | 07:39 |
| Moat | Merovingian, what are you on about? | 07:40 |
| cybersplice | Sarubh, you had the correct packagename, just sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 07:40 |
| Merovingian | saurabh: try sudo apt-get install gnome-desktop-environment | 07:40 |
| darolu | Moat: to remove your Windows partition, you can use GParted; install it with "sudo apt-get install gparted" or from Synaptic | 07:40 |
| Jordan_U | saurabh, Check your /etc/apt/sources.lst. Why are you installing ubuntu-desktop on a server though? | 07:40 |
| Moat | k | 07:41 |
| Jordan_U | saurabh, You may also just need to "sudo apt-get update" | 07:41 |
| ahmed_ | i can't send or receve data via bluetooth? is there any solution for this problem | 07:42 |
| Mage_Dude | Jordan_U: I use it on my 'server' since it doesn't need to be a super productino server it's ok. Easier to manage somethings. Though I'm usually ssh'd in anyway it's nice to have a desktop if I want it | 07:42 |
| darolu | saurabh: try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a | 07:42 |
| claws | brjann: it says that, its not installed... what is irb btw ? | 07:42 |
| saurabh | when i do the apt-get update.. it says failed to fetch Http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/...... | 07:42 |
| brjann | claws: the interactive ruby interpreter. maybe it doesn't come with ubuntu's ruby package. | 07:42 |
| darolu | !patience | ahmed_ | 07:42 |
| ubottu | ahmed_: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. | 07:42 |
| Jordan_U | saurabh, Are you sure the network is configured properly? Can you ping google.com? | 07:43 |
| saurabh | ooops it says unknown host google.com | 07:43 |
| cybersplice | saurabh: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 07:44 |
| FireCrotch | saurabh: have you set your nameserver to be your gateway? | 07:44 |
| cyberbluntz | Hi guys, i have 6 question to ask today, #1 whats the ctrl+u do in terminal? | 07:44 |
| saurabh | no i am unable to change my gateway/dns server how to do it> | 07:44 |
| saurabh | ? | 07:44 |
| cyberbluntz | what program displays the login prompt? | 07:44 |
| BuZzEr42 | Wireless Network always ask for password, where can I set automatic start? | 07:45 |
| darolu | cyberbluntz: you mean gdm? | 07:45 |
| nsitin | how can i include the "greyish area" for including codes in a blog? so that the code seems separate from the rest of the text? | 07:45 |
| Merovingian | Buzzer42: I hate NM, maybe you should try wicd | 07:45 |
| cyberbluntz | Upon boot whats the name of the resident part of the OS loaded into the main memory? | 07:45 |
| cyberbluntz | what program handles locating the commands that a user uses to interacting with the OS? | 07:46 |
| darolu | nsitin: it depends on the blog, sometimes [code], others you have to write the styles; most blogs have a "code" button | 07:46 |
| cyberbluntz | whats the symbol for BASH? | 07:46 |
| FireCrotch | saurabh: in the file /etc/resolv.conf, put "nameserver <ip address of nameserver>" | 07:46 |
| cyberbluntz | what ctrl+? is used to terminate a program? | 07:46 |
| nsitin | darolu: like [code] #include<ios.. > [/code] ? | 07:46 |
| BuZzEr42 | Merovingian: More userfriendly to set up? | 07:47 |
| cyberbluntz | No darolou | 07:47 |

| cyberbluntz | its going to be an answer like shell | 07:47 |
| yeiks | ctrl+c | 07:47 |
| durbme | ^ is confusing, does that mean 0.0.0.0 or <0.0.0.0> | 07:47 |
| brjann | cyberbluntz: please stop asking us to do your homework | 07:47 |
| darolu | nsitin: yeah, that's used on forums mostly, but I've seen some blogs that use the same syntax; it can be different though, look for a "insert code" button | 07:47 |
| cyberbluntz | its going to be an answer like shell+c is to terminate a prog? | 07:47 |

| durbme | I am currently using the IRC client build into pidgin, and it sucks. Anyone have a favorite client that is a bit more robust? | 07:49 |
| darolu | Moat: use gparted to delete your windows partition, is quite easy to use | 07:49 |
| Moat | k.. | 07:49 |
| darolu | ahmed_: software centre, search for cheese | 07:49 |
| nibbler | durbme: xchat-gnome for example | 07:49 |

| Moat | i installed it | 07:50 |
| Moat | whats it under? | 07:50 |
| darolu | Moat: System - Admin - Gparted | 07:50 |
| durbme | nibbler: does that always look like it's command line? I saw some screens of it, and it looks bad (ugly) to me... am I missing something there? | 07:50 |
| FireCrotch | cyberbluntz: okay... one of the answers is "kernel" | 07:50 |
| darolu | durbme: XChat is really nice, is what most people use | 07:50 |
| cyberbluntz | Is there a channel that I can find these answers? | 07:51 |

| darolu | dehqan: you mentioned libc6, I'd start there, check integrity of your filesystem with e2fisck | 08:26 |

| ubottu | mamous: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. | 08:29 |
| shazbotmcnasty | thank you | 08:29 |
| Jordan_U | southernpride, Remove them with apt-get / synaptic | 08:29 |

| mamous | I did | 08:31 |
| mamous | but nothing | 08:31 |
| mamous | even in the intrecator applet | 08:31 |
| Jordan_U | mbn_18, Most likely, yes. | 08:31 |
| mamous | I can't use pidgin | 08:31 |
| mamous | it is buged | 08:31 |
| ahmed_ | when i make my laptop sleep it doesn't wake? is there any problem with my laptop or this problen is in ubuntu? | 08:31 |
| abhi_nav | mamous: which version of pidgin? | 08:31 |
| mbn_18 | Jordan_U: good , going off line :) | 08:31 |
| Jordan_U | mbn_18, If you haven't installed any proprietary drivers then almost certainly. | 08:31 |
| mamous | 2.6 | 08:31 |
| darolu | dehqan: np, I'm not implying you have to upgrade to 9.10, hopefully you only have to reinstall that library, sorry I can't help you further than this, good luck! | 08:32 |
| ahmed_ | when i make my laptop sleep it doesn't wake? is there any problem with my laptop or this problen is in ubuntu? | 08:32 |

| dan | how do i make GIFS play on ubuntu? | 08:32 |
| Tecan | then it will work like magic | 08:32 |
| ahmed_ | what is radeon? | 08:33 |
| mamous | it already there | 08:33 |
| Jordan_U | ahmed_, Most likely a problem in Ubuntu. | 08:33 |
| mamous | but no luck | 08:33 |
| abhi_nav | ahmed_ the same problem with me. its the ubuntu prob. but in my case it happens randomly. | 08:33 |
| mamous | now if the system tray is never | 08:33 |
| ahmed_ | ok | 08:33 |
| abhi_nav | mamous: try to put your question in one single line | 08:33 |
| mamous | the intercator applet don't show me pidgin if it is work or not | 08:33 |

| Jordan_U | shazbotmcnasty, You are probably only getting use of one of the cores then most likely. | 08:34 |
| pts_ | How do I check what configure options a pacakage is build with? | 08:35 |
| shazbotmcnasty | Jordan_U, how I fix this? . | 08:35 |
| Tecan | this channel is intense | 08:35 |
| Jordan_U | shazbotmcnasty, What version of Ubuntu are you using? | 08:35 |
| shazbotmcnasty | 9.04 | 08:35 |
| Tecan | so much shit flying around its hard to keep my eyes open | 08:35 |
| darolu | dan: you can try installing Mirage too | 08:35 |
| ahmed_ | does suspend=sleep in windows? | 08:35 |
| shazbotmcnasty | also Jordan_U the crunchbang thing is a habit | 08:36 |
| Jordan_U | pts_, Look at the source package, I think configure options would usually be in debian/rules | 08:36 |
| iceroot | ahmed_: ? | 08:36 |

| fluxy | hello. i have installed apache and set the DocumentRoot to /home/me/www. However I get access denied, and each time I have to chmod when I add a file. Is there a simple way to do this? Thanks. | 08:36 |
| * Tecan blinks | 08:36 | |
| dan | how do i do that darolu? | 08:36 |
| Tecan | stop this crazy train | 08:36 |
| Jordan_U | shazbotmcnasty, See if a 9.10 liveCD sees both cores, or try the latest linux kernel. | 08:36 |
| darolu | dan: open the software centre and search for Mirage, if you can't find it there, go to System - Admin - Synaptic, and look there | 08:36 |
| dan | k | 08:37 |
| pts_ | Jordan_U: there really isnt an easier way using apt/dpkg? | 08:37 |
| ahmed_ | i didn't find sleep but i found suspend | 08:37 |
| user11 | czczczc | 08:37 |
| darolu | dan: using the terminal is easier for many of us though; there you only have to type: "sudo apt-get install mirage" =) | 08:37 |
| iceroot | pts_: what is not easy with apt-get? | 08:37 |
| Jordan_U | pts_, Not that I know of. | 08:37 |
| pts_ | ok, I'll check out the source then :) | 08:37 |
| Jordan_U | pts_, You can get the source with apt-get source though | 08:38 |
| Jordan_U | pts_, (no sudo needed, it downloads to your current directory) | 08:38 |
| ahmed_ | iceroot ,i didn't find sleep but i found suspend | 08:38 |
| iceroot | ahmed_: and what you want to do? | 08:39 |
| ahmed_ | what does suspend mean? | 08:40 |
| AimlessZealot | It means to put on hold. | 08:40 |
| darolu | ahmed_: suspend turns off all your hard drives and monitor, but keeps the memory on; hybernate writes all your ram to a file in your hard drive. (or was the other way around?) | 08:41 |

| abhi_nav | I have installed truecrypt | 08:42 |
| abhi_nav | ahmed_ hybernate | 08:43 |
| br0k3n | abhi_nav, for dual boot? | 08:43 |

| ahmed_ | bye | 08:43 |
| br0k3n | abhi_nav, sorry, that's not what I'm referring to | 08:43 |
| abhi_nav | then? | 08:43 |
| darolu | ahmed_: depends, suspend is faster but if power fails, all your ram data is lost; hybernate is more secure because if power fails, all your ram info is in your hard drive | 08:43 |
| br0k3n | who! | abhi_nav | 08:44 |

| cyberbluntz | how do i do that? | 08:46 |
| Jordan_U | cyberbluntz, If you were kicked from an Ubuntu channel then #ubuntu-ops | 08:47 |
| ori | bitfox:could u walk me through installing it? i didntunderstand the directions | 08:48 |
| nil1 | Hi | 08:48 |
| darolu | br0k3n your link is based on this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=761530 did you read it? | 08:48 |
| papul | hi guys :D | 08:49 |
| br0k3n | darolu, that's for windows xp. i don't think my link is based on that thread. :) | 08:50 |
| darolu | cyberbluntz: most people will give you a link or point you to (what we think) is the right direction, if you can't read a little and try to learn for yourself is your problem; don't expect anyone to solve very single detail of your homework; that attitude is not very welcomed, that's probably while you got kicked. | 08:50 |
| nil1 | The GNUnet package (P2P) had a really nasty bug which we would like to have fixed for Lucid, but there's no activity on the corresponding inclusion request (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnunet/+bug/523031). Did I do something wrong? | 08:50 |
| magn3ts | I have this PPA installed, yet I can't install ffmpeg-extra https://launchpad.net/~nvidia-vdpau/+archive/cutting-edge-multimedia?field.series_filter=karmic | 08:51 |

| obscurant1st | how to make my laptop cam work with ubuntu 9.10? | 08:52 |
| br0k3n | darolu, ok but I'm asking will it work if you have windows SEVEN installed with ubuntu | 08:52 |
| obscurant1st | i just installed camorama but it says no device found at /dev/vid0 | 08:52 |
| darolu | br0ken: I haven't tried any of that myself so I can't say it will work for sure, but it looks like it should work fine for dual boot with win7 too, it talks about configuring grub (menu.lst file) and that should work with win7 too | 08:53 |
| br0k3n | darolu, thanks. i wish i could just get confirmation from 2 more people. any suggestions for channels besides ##windows? | 08:54 |
| FireCrotch | br0k3n: Win7 is Vista.5 anyways - anything that works with Vista is intended to work with Win7 as well | 08:55 |
| br0k3n | FireCrotch, ok | 08:56 |
| darolu | br0k3n: it should work; I just read the whole tutorial, it makes no difference what win version you use | 08:56 |
| br0k3n | ok thanks | 08:57 |

| natediddy | trying to install gimp | 09:03 |
| === ahmed is now known as Guest84706 | ||
| Guest84706 | how can i install cross over | 09:03 |
| natediddy | i type: apt-get install gimp | 09:03 |
| natediddy | and i get this: | 09:03 |
| natediddy | E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13: Permission denied) E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root? | 09:03 |
| darolu | natediddy: gimp is probably already installed | 09:03 |
| natediddy | ohh | 09:04 |
| Guest84706 | how can i install crossover | 09:04 |
| Jordan_U | !sudo | natediddy | 09:04 |
| ubottu | natediddy: sudo is a command to run command-line ( see !cli ) programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 09:04 |
| psycho_oreos | Guest84706, read the accompanying documentation | 09:04 |
| darolu | natediddy: gimp is installed by default in Ubuntu, to install programs and do admin work you have to use "sudo" (in command line) | 09:04 |
| natediddy | ok thank you much guys :) | 09:05 |
| Madpilot | natediddy, Applications menu->Graphics->GIMP should work | 09:05 |
| natediddy | ok lemme try | 09:05 |
| natediddy | brb | 09:05 |

| obscurant1st | why is the update for kernal 2.6.32/33 not coming in my updater? | 09:06 |
| obscurant1st | i am using 9.10 | 09:07 |
| psycho_oreos | they were included in 9.10 for starters, I think with each release of ubuntu they tend to improve on that same version that was initially released | 09:07 |
| csaba | how can I find out how much memory a process uses? | 09:07 |
| psycho_oreos | s/were/weren't | 09:08 |
| psycho_oreos | csaba, top/htop | 09:08 |
| csaba | I can't find the process in top | 09:08 |
| csaba | although I can find it with ps ax|grep xxx | 09:08 |
| sabat | csaba I am not sure on that, but if you haven't looked at it, take a look at htop. I believe it shows it. and top works too, htop is like an advanced version of top tho. | 09:08 |
| psycho_oreos | csaba, its sorted by CPU % usage by default, you'll need to sort it to some other one | 09:09 |

| Nachturnal | anyone know of a good (and free) webcam video recording program that doesn't have the audio sync problems "Cheese" has? | 09:11 |
| darolu | Nachturnal: you can use mplayer or ffmpeg | 09:12 |
| Nachturnal | darolu, thanks, I'll give those a shot | 09:13 |
| natediddy | thanx guys i got Gimp installed :) | 09:13 |
| sabat | this might be the first pc I cannot install ubuntu on :P sigh... I can't figure this out | 09:13 |
| darolu | Nachturnal: to use mplayer you'll need to use mencoder to actual record video and audio | 09:13 |
| indus | natediddy, if you try the latest gimp, it has a single window interface like photoshop | 09:13 |
| indus | natediddy, or you could also install gimpshop from synaptic which is similar thing | 09:14 |
| Nachturnal | darolu, ah ok... is that in the standard repository? | 09:14 |
| Nachturnal | nvm installing it now :) | 09:14 |
| darolu | Nachturnal: Yes it is | 09:14 |
| cyberbluntz | So much progress since 96 | 09:14 |
| natediddy | ok thanx indus | 09:15 |
| korya | hi all. | 09:16 |
| indus | hi you | 09:16 |
| Nachturnal | darolu, is there a GUI for mencoder? I'm afraid I'm still largely dependent on GUI | 09:17 |
| darolu | Nachturnal: uhmmm I'm not sure, mplayer has GUI but I don't know if you can record from there, command line is not that hard, try this http://paste.ubuntu.com/388164/ | 09:19 |
| Nachturnal | darolu, thanks, checking it out | 09:19 |
| darolu | Nachturnal: good luck! | 09:20 |
| darolu | indus: did you install Gimp 2.6.8 from Lucid packages or compiled it? | 09:21 |
| indus | darolu, i havent yet | 09:21 |
| indus | darolu, not sure if it made it into lucid yet, | 09:21 |
| indus | darolu, wil check tomorrow | 09:21 |
| darolu | indus: it is there, but I dunno if installing it would touch -too many- 9.10 files | 09:22 |

| cyberbluntz | whats sources do I need to Make? | 09:23 |
| indus | but 2.6.8 is the one with that new interface i believe | 09:23 |
| darolu | the one that scares me is libc6; someone came here asking why upgrading to libc6 screwed its booting :p | 09:23 |
| darolu | indus: I do need that new interface, my monitor is rather small and the main window (with the actual image) is always covered by the side panels, I hate how they change how those behave, they used to go to the background in previous versions | 09:24 |

| anto9us | !networking | 09:39 |
| cyberbluntz | will someone help me with make? | 09:40 |

| cyberbluntz | thats good | 09:41 |
| cyberbluntz | I need to use vi to pipe to pipelp to our printer | 09:41 |
| mgolisch | saurabh: ls /etc/resolv.conf ? | 09:42 |
| cyberbluntz | wont pipe in realtime for some reason | 09:42 |
| mgolisch | saurabh: id use nano instead | 09:43 |
| mgolisch | unless you are familar with vi | 09:43 |
| Jimi_Neutral | Does anyone know of a bug with clonzilla that it wont accept 500GB hard drives? I have installed one as a slave to put cloned images onto but for some reason when Clonezilla gets to the part where it reads the path to save the image to it says path does not exist...when I left it as default to go on the primary drive it was fine but that drive isnt big enough, hence the slave. But it wont accept the path "/media/disk/cloneimages/" | 09:43 |
| indietrash | where do you change the colour depth in Ubuntu? | 09:43 |
| indietrash | I have the newest one, whatever version that is. | 09:44 |
| mtx_init | indietrash: im not 100% sure but it would likely be a setting defined in your xorg.conf | 09:44 |
| mtx_init | config file | 09:44 |
| iceroot | mtx_init: there is no xorg.conf in 9.10 by default | 09:45 |
| Jordan_U | indietrash, Why do you want to change the colour depth? | 09:45 |
| indietrash | mtx_init: hasn't Ubuntu like a lot of other mainstream Linux-based operating systems gone away from using xorg.conf? | 09:45 |
| indietrash | Jordan_U: because it's set at 16 but I need it to be 24 ("32"). | 09:45 |
| tom_mahoon1 | hey guys i've recently installed ubuntu 9.10 server on a dell optiplex gx270, the networking keeps dropping out after about 3 minutes. ie it connects, i can ssh into it, then it drops out. any ideas what to do? i think the driver for the NIC is a intel e1000. | 09:45 |
| mtx_init | idk. I dont really check. I use one | 09:45 |
| indietrash | mtx_init: I'm fairly sure Ubuntu uses this HAL jazz for these settings, but idk. | 09:46 |
| mtx_init | iceroot: what does one use then | 09:46 |
| alankila | it's possible to write an xorg.conf file, X merely guesses the settings when you don't have it | 09:46 |
| Jordan_U | indietrash, If you are only getting 16 bit colour it's most likely a driver problem. What GPU? | 09:46 |
| indietrash | Jordan_U: VBox. | 09:46 |
| darolu | indietrash: try with xrandr | 09:46 |
| Jordan_U | indietrash, You shouldn't be getting 16 bit colour in VirtualBox, are you sure? | 09:47 |
| mtx_init | I honestly cant keep up with how fast the ubuntu guys change stuff around, its rather insane. | 09:47 |
| jibel | dehqan, you around ? | 09:48 |
| indietrash | Jordan_U: I've seen a lot of complaints about this on forums, so it's not that uncommon. | 09:48 |
| indietrash | darolu: do you know the exact command? | 09:48 |
| mtx_init | iceroot: what does one use then, other than xorg.conf | 09:49 |
| Guest84706 | does any windows programe could be installes in linux via crossover | 09:49 |
| indietrash | Guest84706: not *any* application, but a lot of them. | 09:50 |
| === dehqan is now known as dehqan|bb | ||
| indietrash | darolu: I can't seem to find any setting for colour depth in xrandr? | 09:50 |
| iceroot | mtx_init: dont know, i am not using 9.10 | 09:50 |
| Penquite | Hi all, could anyone recommend any books on Ubuntu Server Administration and/ or Bash Scripting | 09:50 |
| Guest84706 | ok thanks | 09:50 |
| mtx_init | iceroot: when one installed the nvidia drivers it need a xorg.conf | 09:50 |
| iceroot | mtx_init: as i said, by DEFAULT there is no xorg.conf | 09:51 |
| === dehqan|bb is now known as dehqan|bbl | ||
| Jordan_U | indietrash, Are you sure it's not just complaining during usplash ( before X starts )? | 09:52 |
| viliny | Anyone here experienced with turbovnc? | 09:53 |
| darolu | indietrash: I'm reading man xrandr, but seems like you're right, creating a xorg.conf should do it though, including SubSection Depth XX EndSubSection in your "Screen" section should do it | 09:53 |
| indietrash | Jordan_U: I'm not sure if it is using 24-bit depth, but VBox complains when I start the vm, and it's horrible to use because it doesn't refresh properly. if I move away to another workspace, and then move back to the workspace containing the vm - it won't refresh the window. I'll see my web browser or whatever in that window, until I e.g. mark something on the desktop (in the vm) with the mouse, or move some windows around and so forth. | 09:53 |
| ludesign | Hi guys, could somebody tell me what these desktop widgets are called: http://www.gnome-look.org/CONTENT/content-pre1/119767-1.jpeg (the clock, the weather one), thanks in advance. :) | 09:56 |
| mtx_init | that looks like windows 7 | 09:57 |
| mtx_init | wtf | 09:57 |
| ludesign | yeah, it's a theme for ubuntu (Personally I do not like it) | 09:57 |
| viliny | mtx_init, it says arch linux in the menu | 09:57 |
| alankila | They used to be called gdesklets at one point, assuming this is even gnome. | 09:58 |
| Guest84706 | is there any program like crosssover to install windows programes on linux? | 09:58 |
| Jordan_U | indietrash, Consider the possibility that the two are not related. | 09:58 |
| mtx_init | Wine | 09:58 |
| viliny | nevermind mtx_init, didn't understand you correctly | 09:58 |
| Jordan_U | ludesign, Those are probably made with conky | 09:58 |
| indietrash | Jordan_U: so how do you check what colour depth you are utilizing in this Ubuntu thing? | 09:58 |
| ludesign | Jordan_U, thanks. :) | 09:58 |
| mtx_init | viliny: I have disgust for the win7 Aero design. I hate flashy gui's | 09:58 |
| Jordan_U | indietrash, /var/log/Xorg.0.log should have it if you can't find it anywhere else. | 09:59 |
| gnomemercy | I have yet to even see Vista,,,xp was the last. | 09:59 |
| mtx_init | ludesign: maybe screelets or gdesklets | 09:59 |
| iceroot | what packages provides the command "ip"? apt-cache search ip is not very usefull | 09:59 |
| viliny | mtx_init, yeah it's pretty bad. I just thought you thought the OS was W7 but i later realized that's not what you thought. | 09:59 |
| darolu | ludesign: http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Screenlet?content=119767 | 09:59 |
| saurabh_ | how to i change my dns server address without gui on ubuntu server 9.10 | 09:59 |
| umbra_ | does anybody know of a support channel for the ubuntu customization kit for remastering live cds? I'm wanting the boot cd to automaticly select "install without making any changes" and head straight to gui. | 09:59 |
| ludesign | alankila, mtx_init - thanks. | 09:59 |
| iceroot | saurabh_: sudo vi /etc/resolv.conf | 09:59 |
| ludesign | darolu, thanks. :) | 10:00 |
| BlackDalek | http://inkscape.org/doc/interpolate/tutorial-interpolate.en.html I can't find any "effects" menu in my Inkscape from the repository.. where has it gone? | 10:00 |
| paissad | does this line means that the computer started by "init 2" ? | 10:00 |
| paissad | root 1 0.0 0.0 10324 536 ? Ss Jan10 0:14 init [2] | 10:00 |
| saurabh_ | any other methd? | 10:01 |
| paissad | i obtained it by " ps aux | grep init | grep -v grep" | 10:01 |
| mtx_init | who wanted ip | 10:01 |
| iceroot | saurabh_: why? | 10:01 |
| iceroot | saurabh_: its working | 10:01 |
| mtx_init | its ip2host | 10:01 |
| saurabh_ | i cant find resolv.conf | 10:01 |
| iceroot | saurabh_: create it | 10:01 |
| saurabh_ | did it then what? | 10:01 |
| indietrash | Jordan_U: k. it's 24-bit. any ideas why the window doesn't refresh properly though? | 10:02 |
| iceroot | saurabh_: nameserver 192.168.0.81 | 10:02 |
| mtx_init | iceroot: its ip2conf i think | 10:02 |
| iceroot | saurabh_: change with the ip of your nameserver | 10:02 |
| mtx_init | iceroot: ip2host i mean | 10:02 |
| Jordan_U | indietrash, No. You can probably work around it by enabling compiz though. | 10:02 |
| iceroot | !info ip2host | 10:02 |
| saurabh_ | does that mean my ip or the default gateway? | 10:02 |
| BlackDalek | Where is "interpolate" gone in Inkscape? | 10:03 |
| mgolisch | saurabh_: write a line like "nameserver ip" repalcing ip with the actual ip of your nameserver | 10:03 |
| ubottu | ip2host (source: ip2host): Resolve IPs to hostnames in web server logs. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.09-4 (karmic), package size 8 kB, installed size 56 kB | 10:03 |
| indietrash | Jordan_U: I just removed the horrible "visible effects" crap that the wm or whatever provides. vóila. | 10:03 |
| Jordan_U | indietrash, ( the virtual desktop switch problem, not the overall slowness ) | 10:03 |
| iceroot | mtx_init: not really | 10:03 |
| iceroot | saurabh_: the dns-server | 10:03 |
| mgolisch | saurabh_: man resolv.conf, man interfaces tells you all you need to know on configuring your networking | 10:03 |
| indietrash | Jordan_U: actually turning off the effects made it much more responsive, thankfully. | 10:03 |
| Jordan_U | indietrash, I think I know what's happening. Do you have an ATI card? | 10:04 |
| indietrash | Jordan_U: no. | 10:04 |
| saurabh_ | after name server? | 10:04 |
| iceroot | mtx_init: it was "iproute" | 10:04 |
| Anarhist | what is going on with the bug tracker, you can't file bugs any longer | 10:04 |
| iceroot | saurabh_: nameserver IP-ADRRESS | 10:04 |
| Jordan_U | indietrash, Ok, then I have no idea, but I'm glad it's working for you now :) | 10:04 |
| iceroot | saurabh_: as i posted | 10:04 |
| mtx_init | ok glad ya got it | 10:04 |
| indietrash | Jordan_U: vbox only gets 128mb memory though. might be that. but that's still strange because I've run e.g. Yoper with KDE 4 and all the visual effects with no trouble. | 10:05 |
| saurabh_ | did it | 10:05 |
| saurabh_ | then what next? | 10:05 |
| Anarhist | damn, you have to manually edit the url, that's horrible... | 10:06 |
| lukey | Hi folks, is it possible to tell the gnome panel to occupy a different xinerama screen (my xdpyinfo reports 900x2040 pixels over two monitors but the gnome panel is on the 'wrong' screen so to speak!) | 10:06 |
| iceroot | saurabh_: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 10:06 |
| abhishek_ | hi all | 10:06 |
| abhishek_ | saurabh u there ? | 10:07 |
| Jordan_U | indietrash, If your graphics driver doesn't support redirected direct rendering that would explain some of the symptoms. But the only driver I can think of in 9.10 that doesn't would be the open source radeon driver ( and in 10.04 that will have it too ) | 10:07 |
| iceroot | saurabh_: dont know if it is reading new dns-server without restarting | 10:07 |
| abhishek_ | saurabh can u help me regarding the settings for vuze NAT prob ? | 10:07 |
| mgolisch | yes | 10:07 |
| mgolisch | changes to the resolver configuration file are instant | 10:08 |
| saurabh_ | also auto eth0 is not showing in my interfaces file...its just showing auto lo | 10:08 |
| mgolisch | saurabh_: because you didnt configure eth0 yet | 10:08 |
| saurabh_ | how to do that | 10:08 |
| mgolisch | didnt i tell you that just some minutes ago? | 10:08 |
| mgolisch | man interfaces | 10:08 |
| iceroot | saurabh_: the networkcard is detected correctly? | 10:09 |
| saurabh_ | i dunno | 10:09 |
| mgolisch | ifconfig -a | 10:09 |
| mgolisch | does it show eth0? | 10:09 |
| saurabh_ | but when i do ifconfig | 10:09 |
| saurabh_ | it shows non zero tx and rx packets | 10:10 |
| mgolisch | yeah because its not configure and not up | 10:11 |
| saurabh_ | and on my desktop i only hv ethernet as a network ...source | 10:11 |
| mgolisch | saurabh_: do you want to use dhcp or static ips? | 10:13 |
| saurabh_ | static ip | 10:13 |
| saurabh_ | but if only ethernet is connected and packets are non zero that means eth is configured doesnt it? | 10:14 |

| dehqan | erUSUL: it itself has changed to karmic | 10:55 |
| dehqan | erUSUL: maybe because of that libc6 upgrade | 10:56 |
| anto9us | Zus: you may get an answer in #kubuntu | 10:56 |
| erUSUL | dehqan: it is impossible that it itself changed to karmic. either you initiated the upgrade via the upgrade manager or you edited the sources.list | 10:57 |

| erUSUL | dehqan: well if you are in the middle of a distribution upgrade. the commands i gave are the way to go. maybe you have to repeat them. | 11:00 |
| bazhang | aimtrainer, the package ubuntu-desktop should do it | 11:00 |

| erUSUL | dehqan: not much that i can do right now. you have to go fordward with the upgrade if you are in the middle of it | 11:02 |
| dehqan | erUSUL: to make it 9.10 ? | 11:02 |

| TardisGuy | irrelevant. Why is usb 2.0 going slower than its rated to that significant extent. Does ubuntu need a driver? | 11:52 |
| arand | TardisGuy: http://www.pronetworks.org/forums/install-windows-xp-in-dual-boot-with-pre-installed-windows-7-t104890.html discusses your request, if that is succesful, just installing ubuntu on to should be easy.. | 11:52 |
| Younder | Chousuke, nop | 11:52 |
| arand | TardisGuy: *on top | 11:52 |
| Younder | but fast enough for a external disk to be the same speed as a internal one | 11:53 |
| viliny | TardisGuy, what are you using to benchmark the drive? | 11:53 |
| Chousuke | TardisGuy: What filesystem does it the drive have? | 11:53 |

| TardisGuy | The drive is NTFS and i benchmark by transferring files in windows | 11:54 |
| Chousuke | NTFS might be the problem | 11:54 |
| Younder | 480 Mb/b is a exsaggeration. That is is best. | 11:54 |
| jimlovell777 | dehqan: You mean you want to strip that list down to just the package names? | 11:54 |
| Chousuke | the fuse driver is not particularly fast as far as I know | 11:54 |
| TardisGuy | and watching the transfer rate define as "30 MB/s" | 11:54 |
| Younder | you will never really achieve that. | 11:54 |

| zvacet | Emry: you will not finish with new version just upgrade packages of your existing version | 11:56 |

| jimlovell777 | dehqan: you could try polity asking someone in #awk to create a regular expression that would parse out the package names | 11:57 |
| ubottu | Jimi_Neutral: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 11:57 |
| Chousuke | TardisGuy: I think you can just point virtualbox to a device file | 11:57 |
| Chousuke | TardisGuy: but you should read the manual | 11:57 |
| Emry | zvacet, I thought so, but I wanted to make sure. :) | 11:57 |
| zvacet | Emry: np | 11:57 |
| Jimi_Neutral | because arand i have asked the question and i think it would be easier to find out if there is anyone actually in here that knwos about it first rather than keep typing it out | 11:57 |
| Emry | zvacet, *grins* Now as long as the video drivers don't go insane, everything should go fine. :P | 11:57 |

| arand | Jimi_Neutral: But it is far easier to answer a question if it is typed out, rather than having to ask what the question are, just because someone knows clonezilla doesn't mean they can answer your question, similarly your queestion might be answered by someone who knows nothing about clonezilla if it happens to be more general. | 12:03 |

| pc1 | yes i know | 12:46 |

| tnsampaio | i change it to performace | 12:49 |
| Dr_Willis | !training | pc1 | 12:49 |
| ubottu | pc1: documentation is to be found at http://help.ubuntu.com and http://wiki.ubuntu.com - General linux documentation: http://www.tldp.org - http://rute.2038bug.com | 12:49 |
| VCoolio | zetheroo: sure, but maybe add another line with just "exec=" to be sure | 12:49 |
| tnsampaio | and in seconds it decrease performance | 12:49 |
| Stargaze | pc1: surf to this site and click one of the newbie tutorials :) => http://users.skynet.be/gbachot/html/howto.html | 12:49 |
| zetheroo | VCoolio: oh yes ... good idea | 12:50 |
| eminor | i hope flash will die, damn ressource hungry crap! | 12:50 |
| Dr_Willis | eminor: with HTML5 thats a possibility | 12:50 |

| Stargaze | idd | 12:50 |

| airtonix | !anyone | pc1 | 12:51 |
| ubottu | pc1: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 12:51 |
| Dr_Willis | pc1: wine is used by a great many people | 12:51 |
| Younder | eminor, sory I can't help you. But I am as clueless as you | 12:51 |
| solow | How do I mount ISO files on ubuntu? | 12:51 |
| Penquite | pc1: yes | 12:51 |
| pc1 | it let you install windows app | 12:51 |
| maxlamer | wont happen too soon though, flash will be around for a while unfortunatly | 12:51 |
| Younder | eminor, try asking again | 12:51 |
| Dr_Willis | solow: you can use the mount command and the proper options. Or i recall some way to get a menu item that let you mount them from the gui | 12:51 |
| Dr_Willis | !iso | 12:51 |
| ubottu | To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 12:51 |
| Dr_Willis | !wine | pc1 | 12:51 |
| ubottu | pc1: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu | 12:52 |

| Younder | that is QUATRO | 12:52 |
| maxlamer | pc1: there is also VirtualBox | 12:52 |

| Penquite | ie !wine | 12:52 |
| Stargaze | pc1: trys this site => http://www.frankscorner.org/ | 12:52 |
| Dr_Willis | solow: i have no idea what i installed once to get a 'iso mount' menu item once on my desktop. I saw it on one machine.. and never did figure out what package did it. | 12:52 |

| solow | Dr_Willis, Okay, so I should use the mount command. could I use wine to mount my windows xp iso? | 12:53 |
| zetheroo | VCoolio: you guys must spend so much time with Linux to know it so well inside and out ... my hats off to you ... i have been using Ubuntu as my main OS for 4 years and still cannot seem to catch up ... ha | 12:54 |
| Pici | Penquite: Our channel bot (ubottu) interprets it as a command. | 12:54 |

| Dr_Willis | solow: you dont use wine to mount it.. You mount it with the linux commands.. why are you mounting a xp iso anyway? | 12:54 |
| solow | Dr_Willis, Well, I meant use wine to install daemon tools. And I'm mounting it for my virtual box, to install adobe on it | 12:54 |
| pc1 | any one know how to get the root user | 12:55 |
| Penquite | Thanks Pici | 12:55 |
| Stargaze | pc1: surf to this site and click one of the newbie tutorials :) => http://users.skynet.be/gbachot/html/howto.html | 12:55 |
| Younder | you need root ? | 12:55 |
| Dr_Willis | solow: time to read the virtualbox docs.. You can tell vbox to 'access' an iso file as a cdrom device - theres NO need t omount it | 12:55 |
| Younder | what's wron with sudo su | 12:55 |
| Dr_Willis | solow: and you definatly dont use deamon tools to mount an iso for virtualbox to access.. | 12:55 |
| Guest85246 | how to install screenlets? | 12:55 |
| Dr_Willis | that would be a nightmare | 12:56 |
| VCoolio | zetheroo: nah, it's just something lots of people want to configure, so this is a FAQ | 12:56 |
| Younder | Dr_Willis, you defiately do | 12:56 |
| Stargaze | Guest85246: type sudo apt-get install screenlets | 12:56 |
| zetheroo | VCoolio: I see ... are people like me an whine about having to do it through the command line? | 12:56 |
| Dr_Willis | Younder: unhuh.. using wine to use deamon tools.. to mount an iso. so vbox can access the iso... riiiightt... | 12:56 |
| Guest10818 | Stargaze, I have used schedutils (taskset -c 0 first_process & taskset -c 1 second_process & taskset -c 2 third_process & taskset -c 3 fourth_process & wait) | 12:56 |
| zetheroo | Guest85246: synaptic package manager .... search for screenlets and install | 12:56 |
| Younder | Dr_Willis, root'ish | 12:57 |
| Jimi_Neutral | I use clonezilla and it worked fine with its default setting to save the images on the main o/s hard drive...the default path was "/home/partimag/" but now since i have installed a slave drive and am trying to save the images to "/media/disk-1/images/" it keeps saying that the directory does not exist...does anyone know why this would be? | 12:57 |
| Guest10818 | that launches four processes, one on each core, and waits for them to finish. | 12:57 |
| VCoolio | zetheroo: in this case, no; but cli is very convenient: you get explanations and useful error messages most of the time | 12:57 |
| solow | Dr_Willis, So I should point it to an iso. Thanks | 12:57 |
| Dr_Willis | Younder: virtualbox can access an iso file directly as if its a cdrom drive. | 12:57 |
| Dr_Willis | solow: yes. its right there in the vbox settings | 12:57 |
| Younder | Dr_Willis, yes | 12:57 |
| Dr_Willis | solow: i test out linux live cd's all the time that way | 12:57 |
| Stargaze | me too | 12:57 |
| solow | lol | 12:58 |
| Younder | Dr_Willis, It's good but i'ts not perfect | 12:58 |
| solow | Dr_Willis, It's working. This is funny as hell. | 12:58 |
| Dr_Willis | Younder: im not convinced you know what you are (or what we are) talking about. | 12:58 |
| JOHN_DILLINGER | ciao | 12:58 |
| Dr_Willis | solow: i ran Win95 in vbox for ages. comes in handy | 12:58 |
| Younder | Dr_Willis, neither am I | 12:58 |
| solow | Dr_Willis, I never used a VM before. It's funny to see. Is it also possible for me to remove my windows partition? because I have windows 7 and ubuntu, now with vm, I want to remove my windows partition. | 12:58 |
| Dr_Willis | solow: running win7 in vbox might trigger the windows activation stuff.. it may say its pirated or other stuff.. I havent ever tried win7 | 12:59 |
| Guest85246 | zetherooi: cant find screenlets from synaptic package manager | 12:59 |
| Dr_Willis | solow: just keep windows on its own little hd - just in case i need it | 13:00 |
| Younder | Dr_Willis, I've used UNIX and later Linux sustems for 20 or so years. | 13:00 |
| maxlamer | solow: your not planning on doing anything too heavy in windows 7 in vm are you ?? | 13:00 |
| Dr_Willis | Younder: thrilling. | 13:00 |
| Younder | Dr_Willis, respected as some sort of gury. but not omni knowlegable | 13:00 |
| Younder | Dr_Willis, if I mislead them I am sorry | 13:01 |
| solow | Dr_Willis, I just captured or something. scared the crap out of me couldn't do a thing :P | 13:01 |
| zetheroo | VCoolio: agreed ... I just have a number of clients who I have switched from Windows to Ubuntu who are not too pleased when i tell them they have to resort to the terminal to do something so seemingly simple ... this is the main reason I groan ... not because I myself mind all that much, in fact i rather enjoy the command line, but because I am thinking of the greater group of users ... :) | 13:01 |
| Dr_Willis | Younder: yep. vbox has the feature all ready. so theres no need to mess with other stuff.. | 13:01 |
| demian | Help! | 13:01 |
| demian | :) | 13:01 |
| * Dr_Willis notices that people totally overlook the very decent virtualbox docs way too often. | 13:01 | |
| Younder | Dr_Willis, iright | 13:01 |
| Stargaze | in other words: RTFM ;) | 13:02 |
| Younder | Dr_Willis, I also buy cisco | 13:02 |
| solow | Why should I. | 13:02 |
| VCoolio | zetheroo: those client should maybe stick with LTS releases; karmic has some new stuff that isn't completely configurable / packed with features yet | 13:02 |
| solow | I got it working now didnt I :P | 13:02 |
| Dr_Willis | solow: dont try to set up virtualbox to run the 'real' windows hard drive either.. thats 'doable' but it can cause issues.. and data loss | 13:02 |
| koltroll | Hey guys. I'm trying to rip a cd in rythmbox bot it's going dead slow. Also there's problems with the playback. The CD is all new so it -should- be in good condition. When I tried making a copy to img-file of it worked fine. | 13:02 |
| solow | Dr_Willis, How? I just want to use adobe, without rebooting all the time. | 13:03 |
| Dr_Willis | solow: check the vbox docs at its homepage. also be sure to install the vbox guest addations for any os you are running in vbox | 13:03 |
| keito_ | Hey folks, I'm experiencing a major bug whereby the process gvfsd-metadata is using 100%cpu cycles and it is causing nautilus to hang constantly. I'm on a revo r3600 and with the low-spec it is unbearable. Any ideas on how to fix this or if the bug has been triaged yet? | 13:03 |
| Dr_Willis | solow: use adobe | 13:03 |
| Guest85246 | from where i can get screenlets package? | 13:03 |
| zetheroo | VCoolio: yes, about a quarter of them are still using Hardy ... but the remainder want the latest whenever they can get it ... hehe ... | 13:03 |
| Dr_Willis | solow: use adobe what exactly? | 13:03 |
| Dr_Willis | !info screenlets | 13:03 |

| imi | keito_: for testing purposes only I'd like to install some lib devels, and don't want to forget about them being installed | 13:12 |
| keito_ | zetheroo, I'm still learning to crawl | 13:12 |
| AceKing | VCoolio, thank you | 13:12 |
| cyberbluntz | One more question, when I start kismet I lose connection, obvious, but how can i get connect back without restarting? | 13:12 |
| jimlovell777 | cyberbluntz: sudo iwconfig wlan0 mode managed | 13:12 |
| zetheroo | keito_: haha ... it's fun watching the goings on in here sometimes :D | 13:12 |
| === Guest16813 is now known as _raven | ||
| keito_ | imi, well I guess some bash scripting is involved... good luck! | 13:13 |
| AceKing | ghufran, what was your question and I'll see if I can help | 13:13 |
| cyberbluntz | oksweet! | 13:13 |
| keito_ | zetheroo, ;) indeed | 13:13 |
| imi | thanks | 13:13 |
| dobrezlo | internet is for p0rn | 13:14 |
| keito_ | so... is any other being in here experiencing gvfsd-metadata cpu hogging? My system has only just starting hanging recently and I think a recent update pwned it | 13:14 |
| Guest85246 | keito_: Failed to fetch http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org/dists/feisty/main/binary-i386/Packages 403 Forbidden | 13:14 |
| Guest85246 | Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead. | 13:14 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest85246: beryl is a dead project. Its not needed any more | 13:15 |
| keito_ | Guest85246, lol, why are you adding feisty sources? | 13:15 |
| g_ | how do i format a usb drive to fat21? | 13:15 |
| Pici | Guest85246: And feisty is no longer supported. | 13:15 |
| g_ | fat32 even | 13:15 |
| hellz_bellz | I'm havinf trouble getting grub2 to update and add an entry for my windows 7 partition | 13:15 |
| Dr_Willis | g_: sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/XXXXX | 13:15 |
| keito_ | Guest85246, you're running Karmic, feisty is no loner supported. | 13:15 |
| Younder | Guest85246, you need to register first | 13:15 |
| keito_ | s/loner/longer/g | 13:15 |
| keito_ | Younder, what? | 13:15 |
| g_ | thanks Dr_Willis | 13:15 |
| Younder | Guest85246, before you snort | 13:15 |
| ghufran | AceKing: i set up a vpn connection with a network using vpnc .. but the problem is .. i get disconnected every time i shut down.. so i have to setup the connection every time using the commandline .. i was wondering if there is any setting to get past that | 13:16 |
| hellz_bellz | i run grub-mkconfig and it finds it fine | 13:16 |
| Guest85246 | Younder: how i register | 13:16 |
| keito_ | Guest85246, are you blingly following guides off the internet that are years old trying to get stuff done? that's a sure fire way to break your system | 13:16 |
| hellz_bellz | but the "grub-update" command doesnt exist | 13:16 |
| hellz_bellz | i try to do a grub install... but it doesnt update the menu | 13:17 |
| Younder | Guest85246, you can read can't you? :) | 13:17 |
| jimlovell777 | hellz_bellz: sudo update-grub | 13:17 |
| keito_ | Guest85246, he was joking.... your telling your system to look for links to software repos that don't exist | 13:17 |
| dlynes | Does anyone else here do preseeding? | 13:17 |
| Dr_Willis | hellz_bellz: its 'sudo update-grub' i belive | 13:17 |
| hellz_bellz | oh lol i had it backwards | 13:17 |
| Younder | Guest85246, just follow trough to the website. | 13:17 |
| AceKing | ghufran, unfortunately that is the same problem I am having. I can't figure out how to keep it live | 13:17 |
| dlynes | I'm trying to figure out how to preseed out the keyboard configuration and the hostname | 13:17 |
| hellz_bellz | thanks | 13:17 |
| Dr_Willis | !grub2 | hellz_bellz | 13:17 |
| ubottu | hellz_bellz: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 13:17 |
| Guest85246 | i can't understand | 13:18 |
| dlynes | I've got it so that it autofills in the hostname (but does not press enter), and the keyboard defaults to Afghanistan, but again does not press enter (I need it to default to USA) | 13:18 |
| Younder | Much of the emi automated C.... doesn't work | 13:18 |
| keito_ | Guest85246, maybe it's time to read through the Ubuntu Pocket Guide before going any further. You're asking for trouble, you've added a source that no longer exists, and I doubt you have the knowledge to remove it again | 13:18 |
| jimlovell777 | Guest85246: No disrespect intended, is english your first language? | 13:18 |
| dehqan | is this list ok for set-selection http://pastebin.com/bZJywtKa | 13:18 |
| keito_ | Guest85246, check you pm | 13:19 |
| Guest85246 | no | 13:19 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest85246: and Beryl is dead. compiz has absorbed it. | 13:19 |
| Guest85246 | i'm egyptian | 13:19 |
| jimlovell777 | Guest85246: perhaps try an appropriate channel for your primary language so the help makes more sense to you. | 13:19 |
| keito_ | Guest85246, I said check your pm, not tell me where you;re from | 13:20 |

| Guest85246 | if i install ubuntu again the problem will be solved or not | 13:20 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest85246: i dont think we even KNOW what the actual problem is any more | 13:20 |
| jimlovell777 | Guest85246: Depends on the problem. Compiz comes installed and screenlets is as easy as opening synaptic and marking it for installation | 13:21 |
| clrg | Guest85246: Please try a channel where they speak a language you understand better. Is there no Egyptian specific channel for ubuntu? | 13:21 |
| jazzjack | /join #xbins | 13:21 |
| keito_ | Guest85246, yes... but next time readguides that are for the version of ubuntu you actually install | 13:21 |
| Stargaze | i guess Guest85246 is using feisty, is it still supported? | 13:21 |
| keito_ | Dr_Willis, he wants to install screenlets and remove a dead source | 13:22 |
| * jimlovell777 always fears my client isn't catching my IRC commands before they hit the chat... | 13:22 | |

| Dr_Willis | madjoe: mount it with the proper options. | 13:26 |
| Parsi | Dr_Willis: how can i edit repo list? | 13:26 |
| keito_ | Stargaze, to fix gvfsd-metadata issue? | 13:26 |

| delivos | Dr_Willis: thanks; all ntfs-config seems to do is detect an internal ntfs partition and offer to make my external ntfs mounts writable, but i was hoping to change their permissions to allow other system users to read them | 13:26 |
| Dr_Willis | madjoe: same options basically apply to eitehr | 13:26 |
| keito_ | Stargaze, wrong person ;) | 13:27 |
| clrg | madjoe: Just please go check the links. | 13:27 |

| madjoe | Dr_Willis, clrg: ok, thanks | 13:27 |
| ghufran | AceKing: are you aware of any gui for management of connections? | 13:27 |
| Dr_Willis | delivos: Or i just make a fstab entry exactly how i want it. | 13:27 |

| clrg | tuxican: Is hardware damage a possible cause? | 13:28 |
| jimlovell777 | tuxican: That looks like a hardware issue. Is that a screenshot or picture? | 13:28 |
| tuxican | screenshot | 13:29 |
| clrg | tuxican: Is your VGA/HDMI/whatever-cable damaged or not plugged in correctly? | 13:29 |
| tuxican | it should be okay | 13:29 |
| clrg | tuxican: If you're not sure, please check | 13:30 |

| jimlovell777 | clrg: it does look like a screen going bad but a screenshot wouldn't capture a hardware issure. It would have to be in software. | 13:30 |

| shooree | guys, I'm trying to run an .exe install that I've read requires Mono. Now, I've also read that Ubuntu comes with Mono. What do I need to do to, since what my system does now is just open the .exe like an archive that it is? | 13:31 |
| coz_ | tuxican, which video card and driver version? | 13:31 |
| clrg | tuxican: Did you install any graphics related software lately? Like drivers, compiz, GUI environment? | 13:31 |
| tuxican | and in awesome, too | 13:31 |
| Dr_Willis | shooree: it requires mono? or IS a mono exe? | 13:31 |
| coz_ | shooree, you probably need wine | 13:31 |
| keito_ | tuxican, what driver are you using for your gphx card | 13:31 |
| tuxican | yes I use compiz | 13:31 |
| peke | hola | 13:31 |

| coz_ | tuxican, when you are talking with someone it helps if you type their nickname so it will alert them :) | 13:32 |
| clrg | jazzjack: Please disable your bot | 13:32 |

| Lappie | how do i clear this chat screen | 13:45 |
| coz_ | shooree, when you open synaptic and hit Search and type in mono make sure you have libmono installed and read the other mono packages to see if you might need them as well | 13:45 |
| leander_craig | getting cheese lets see if it works | 13:45 |
| Dr_Willis | Lappie: depends on your irc clint | 13:45 |
| Dr_Willis | client | 13:45 |
| Lappie | xchat | 13:45 |
| Dr_Willis | xchat has some good docs.. try /clear perhaps | 13:45 |
| leander_craig | so why dosent webcam work oob with 9.10 | 13:45 |
| jngdwe | Hello? Does anyone have ubuntu 9.10 with working ATI Radeon 4xxx? | 13:45 |

| Dr_Willis | leander_craig: theres 10000's of types of webcams.. | 13:45 |

| solow | cant find the shared folder | 13:46 |
| leander_craig | bless that man | 13:46 |
| Dr_Willis | If the webcam works with cheese.. then it does work out of the box. :) it just dosent have any apps to use with it | 13:47 |
| shooree | rzx2371, I don't use ekiga but mine does work with Skype | 13:47 |

| leander_craig | coz the rest of my drivers work fine , and the webcam blue light flashes just before the message | 13:49 |
| coz_ | shooree, mm then I am puzzled for sure... I dont use mono much for anything as far as I know so I cant speak with any authority on running an application that requires it if no one has an answer here you might want to try the ##linux channel ...they may have a few people there with this experience | 13:49 |

| jimlovell777 | umbra_: :-O | 14:23 |
| dehqan | jimlovell777: what will that command do exactly ? will it reinstall packages that are installed ? | 14:23 |
| jimlovell777 | dehqan: Yes, it's supposed to | 14:23 |
| umbra_ | jimlovell777, it's quite a collection. | 14:23 |
| jimlovell777 | umbra_: Certainly sounds like it. | 14:24 |
| dehqan | jimlovell777: and will install those packages that are not installed ? | 14:24 |
| jimlovell777 | dehqan: nope | 14:24 |
| sernylan | tully, perhaps ports to open on OSX? | 14:24 |
| umbra_ | jimlovell777, if you're into that sort of memorabilia thing hang on and i'll private message you something after i find it... | 14:25 |
| jimlovell777 | umbra_: Ok, thanks. | 14:25 |
| PwrSurge | I guess everyone is stumped huh? | 14:25 |
| dehqan | jimlovell777: this sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade only upgrade packages ? | 14:25 |
| jimlovell777 | dehqan: That should install the selections that are not currently installed. | 14:26 |

| Dr_Willis | the-erm: get away from the /etc/init.d/XXXXX type ussage. its slowly being obsoleted | 14:28 |
| the-erm | There used to be a gui program that would allow you to enable/disable all that stuff. | 14:28 |

| the-erm | noooo | 14:28 |
| the-erm | I like the init.d scripts. | 14:28 |

| Dr_Willis | the-erm: the move to UPSTART has changed a lot of things | 14:28 |
| Dr_Willis | !upstart | 14:29 |
| ubottu | Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ | 14:29 |
| Dr_Willis | the-erm: get over it. Sysv is getting phased out.. Upstart is getting phased in | 14:29 |
| obiwan_ | gwtl: could you please tell me your dns? | 14:29 |
| the-erm | So how in the world do you get a list of all your services? | 14:29 |
| Nacho | hola | 14:29 |
| obiwan_ | gwtl: or some one that you know works good | 14:29 |
| Dr_Willis | the-erm: sudo service list or somthing like that | 14:30 |

| gwtl | obiwan_: hmmm, I wonder if you could use google.... | 14:30 |
| obiwan_ | i can't gwtl :( | 14:31 |
| Dr_Willis | the-erm: actually Upstart is a LOT simpiler in many ways.. but since you havent read up on it..... well... | 14:31 |
| obiwan_ | oh doyo mean with ip gwtl ? | 14:31 |
| obiwan_ | yeah maybe it works lemme try | 14:31 |
| gwtl | obiwan_: I mean use google as dns server | 14:31 |
| Dr_Willis | the-erm: some serices are still using the sysv method. but thats getting les and less with each new ubuntu release | 14:31 |
| obiwan_ | gwtl: how? adding that ip to my resolv.conf? | 14:32 |
| gwtl | obiwan_: no idea | 14:32 |
| pcoperator | aan | 14:32 |
| obiwan_ | that's google server ip | 14:32 |
| gwtl | obiwan_: I'll se if i can find out | 14:32 |
| obiwan_ | i don't think they use it as dns too | 14:32 |

| obiwan_ | if not, please just google some dns address, thanks | 14:32 |
| dehqan | jimlovell777: you said ; That should install the selections that are not currently installed. how about selections that are currently installed or purged or ... will reinstall them ? | 14:32 |

| obiwan_ | easy to remember | 14:33 |
| wzssyqa | and 8.8.4.4 | 14:33 |
| gwtl | obiwan_: I foud a possible solution | 14:34 |
| dehqan | dpkg --get-selections > file then cat file > dpkg --set-selections then sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade , That should install the selections that are not currently installed. how about selections that are currently installed or purged or ... will reinstall them ? | 14:34 |
| the-erm | Ok back to my original question ... how do you disable it? How do you turn them off so they aren't running? There used to be a gui that did it. | 14:34 |
| gwtl | obiwan_: seems wzssyqa beat me to it | 14:34 |

| archman | i want to remove my swap partition (as it's useless to me...) and add that free space to the main partition (root). is it enough to just remove the swap, create the ext3, and join it with /? | 14:37 |
| pigdude | wzssyqa, yea I was confused for a sec. didn't it used to have the hyphen? | 14:37 |
| gwtl | If I press Space+Ctrl+KEY nothing happens | 14:37 |
| gwtl | any ideas? | 14:38 |
| Dr_Willis | i always put at least 512mb swap on all my HD's :) | 14:38 |
| obiwan_ | gwtl: many thanks i did so and it works fine | 14:38 |

| sushuangping | good evening every one =大家晚上好 | 14:41 |
| === tommy_ is now known as Guest5092 | ||
| archman | wzssyqa, well, looking if it's safe to do it, as i have only 1.2GB of phy memory | 14:42 |
| wzssyqa | sushuangping: here is not place to teach chinese | 14:42 |
| archman | wzssyqa, as i see that this swap i have (900mb) is not enough for me to hibernate the pc, and it's empty almost always (it has 65mb atm :D) | 14:43 |
| wzssyqa | archman: since you have not to much phy mem ,then,you need seap | 14:43 |
| archman | aah ok | 14:43 |
| archman | :S | 14:43 |
| archman | wzssyqa, do i need exactly the same swap size as my phy mem, or 20% more, maybe? | 14:44 |
| archman | wzssqa or is it better to use tuxonice for hibernation? | 14:44 |
| wzssyqa | archman: ago,suggestion is 2 times | 14:44 |
| archman | oh cr.. :S | 14:44 |
| Chousuke | twice your ram is too much I think | 14:44 |
| archman | yes, for modern system | 14:44 |
| archman | read it somewhere... | 14:44 |
| archman | for low end machines is 2x i guess | 14:45 |
| archman | not sure, tho | 14:45 |
| Chousuke | if you need to hibernate, 1.2 times amount of RAM or something is probably okay | 14:45 |
| wzssyqa | for sleep,1 time,is need | 14:45 |
| Dr_Willis | Swap ammount depends mor eon the system. then any rule of thumnb. | 14:45 |
| Chousuke | you can always add more swap later anyway | 14:45 |
| Dr_Willis | :) | 14:45 |
| leander_craig | right dr wills got me cam working ;) | 14:45 |
| Dr_Willis | if you got 128mb of ram.. you proberly want more then 2x ram for swap :P | 14:45 |
| wzssyqa | now,hd is so cheap | 14:46 |
| archman | Chousuke, seems like i need maybe 500MB more on swpa partition :D I got two ntfs partitions, one / ext 3, can i resize some and add it to the swap? is it safe? | 14:46 |
| Chousuke | in fact, swap partitions are rather silly nowadays | 14:46 |
| wzssyqa | maybe,do not mind 2 G | 14:46 |
| wzssyqa | archman: you can get a file as swap | 14:46 |
| archman | wzssyqa i know | 14:46 |
| Chousuke | since you can just do dd if=/dev/zero of=swapfile bs=1M count=1024 && mkswap swapfile && swapon swapfile to add a gigabyte :P | 14:46 |
| Dr_Willis | I always just keep 512mb of swap on every hd on every system i got and dont worry about it. :) | 14:47 |
| Red_HamsterX | If you allocate too much swap and find that Linux is favouring it over RAM a bit too much, you can play with the swappiness value. | 14:47 |
| Dr_Willis | You cant hibernate/suspend to a swapfile.. i belive. | 14:47 |
| archman | wzssyqa i know, that's why i want to remove the swap and use that space as for the swapfile | 14:47 |
| archman | Dr_Willis, tuxonice? | 14:47 |
| wzssyqa | archman: you can use 2 swaps | 14:47 |
| Dr_Willis | archman: Not tried that. | 14:47 |
| archman | http://www.tuxonice.net | 14:48 |
| gwtl | Chousuke: so... you don't need a physical swap partition? | 14:48 |
| Dr_Willis | You can use 10+ swap partions :P f ya wanted to | 14:48 |
| wzssyqa | archman: 1 phy,1 file | 14:48 |
| Chousuke | gwtl: correct | 14:48 |
| TardisGuy | So ive been doing more reading. Question: If i were to install a command line and apt-get ubuntu-desktop and Kubuntu-desktop on two seperate users (homes) would that eliminate the icon redundancy i get when i instal two variants? | 14:48 |
| archman | lol | 14:48 |
| Dr_Willis | dont put the swap file on a NFS fileserver. :) | 14:48 |
| archman | erm.. | 14:48 |
| researcher1 | what is the way to secure surfing in Ubuntu? Can anonymity be enjoyed while browsing ? | 14:48 |
| Chousuke | gwtl: you might need one for hibernation though. I haven't checked. :P | 14:48 |
| gwtl | Chousuke: ah | 14:48 |
| archman | don't know what to do...i might shrink of of ntfs partitions | 14:49 |
| archman | and add it to the swap then | 14:49 |
| sushuangping | 有没有湖南人？ | 14:49 |
| archman | i wanna try that hibernate | 14:49 |
| archman | seems cool | 14:49 |

| gwtl | Chousuke: hmmm, that would be the main use for swap (main as in using most of it) | 14:49 |
| archman | sleep* | 14:49 |
| wzssyqa | sushuangping: go to #ubuntu-cn | 14:49 |
| frontendloader | anyone know how to change out xulrunner-dev versions in aptitude? or will this break things, I'm trying to install mongodb and I'm getting dependency problems | 14:49 |
| frontendloader | xulrunner-dev: Depends: xulrunner-1.9.1-dev (>= 1.9.1.3+build1+nobinonly) but it is not going to be installed | 14:49 |
| sushuangping | good | 14:50 |
| eurythmia | TardisGuy, no. when you run apt-get you install systemwide, not to homedirs. The icon redundancy happens when users log in with more than one type of session, and the DE saves all of its icons to ~/Desktop | 14:50 |
| archman | Chousuke, can i just unmount this ntfs partition from which i wanna take 500MB and add it to the swap (when swapoff)? | 14:50 |
| ssv1994 | will I break my PC if I will turn it on and turn it off every day for 1 - 2 hours? | 14:50 |
| eurythmia | archman, is the partition on the same drive you have linux installed to? | 14:51 |
| mguy | ssv1994: no, back when I had windows 95 I used to do that every day | 14:51 |
| === emachala_ is now known as emachala | ||

| Chousuke | archman: or what? | 14:51 |
| archman | eurythmia, no :) | 14:51 |
| wzssyqa | pigdude: a great speed | 14:51 |
| archman | eurythmia, partition is ntfs (ex-windows :D) | 14:51 |
| pigdude | GVim doesn't appear in the KMenu... | 14:52 |
| major_redhat | question - would reformatting my harddrive from ext3 to ext4 improve boot performance? Im using 9.04 | 14:52 |
| eurythmia | archman, then yeah, you can unmount all drives on the partition, resize the ntfs partition, and then do your magic ;) | 14:52 |
| dsnyders | HI all! Is there an app other than audacity for cutting/pasting music? Audiacity is having problems on my machine. | 14:52 |
| eurythmia | archman, (*safely*) | 14:52 |
| archman | Chousuke: unmount, resize ntfs, add swap, join to swap :D possible? | 14:52 |
| Chousuke | archman: sure. | 14:52 |
| Chousuke | archman: there's no need to turn off swap at any point either | 14:52 |
| archman | eurythmia, Chousuke, thanks :) | 14:52 |
| ssv1994 | mguy: thanks, I just didn't knew anything about my question | 14:52 |
| Chousuke | archman: you can add and remove swap partitions or files dynamically | 14:52 |
| mguy | major_redhat: Not worth it, get an SSD if it bothers you that much | 14:52 |
| eurythmia | archman, oops, slydexia strikes again: s/all drives on the partition/all partitions on the drive/ | 14:52 |

| major_redhat | mguy: and plus i have no money for it :P | 14:54 |
| mguy | major_redhat: Well just be patient. How often do you reboot anyway? | 14:54 |
| dsnyders | Thanks erUSUL. Audacity is the second program to stop working properly since my upgrade to 9.04 | 14:54 |
| cyberbluntz | hey guys, what prog is this guy spoofing with? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVbWBoR4E64 | 14:54 |
| archman | Chousuke, hmm, can i maybe see somewhere, how much EXACTLY maximum swap space will i ever need with this setup now? i don't want to resize now, and then end up with "34 bytes more required" :D | 14:54 |
| major_redhat | mguy: i dual boot win7 and ubuntu 9.04, and 9.04 takes roughly 15-16 seconds according to bootchart | 14:54 |
| pigdude | does anybody know how to get GTK programs to use the keyboard in KDE | 14:54 |
| Chousuke | archman: that's impossible to know for sure | 14:54 |
| archman | Chousuke, ok | 14:55 |
| Chousuke | archman: it depends entirely on what you do | 14:55 |
| Chousuke | archman: how much RAM do you have? | 14:55 |

| dsnyders | major_redhat, Sorry, not familiar with kdenlive. What's keeping you on windows? | 14:58 |
| umang | Red_HamsterX, I tried yesterday and today. Nobody replied... | 14:58 |
| major_redhat | dsnyders: specialy programs that i need for my job at school | 14:59 |
| Red_HamsterX | umang, cross-reference the usernames against Launchpad and find someone who seems important, then highlight them. | 14:59 |
| umang | wzssyqa, I'll see. Maybe The documentation team's if they have a public one. | 14:59 |
| major_redhat | dsnyders: and if i had the money, i would totally get a second 7200 rpm 2.5 hard drive and install 9.04 entirely on it | 14:59 |
| umang | Red_HamsterX, Are you sure that's not a rude thing to do? | 14:59 |
| Red_HamsterX | umang, IRC highlights aren't usually considered rude if you have a good reason for singling out an individual. Unsolicited PMs are bad, though. | 15:00 |
| umang | Red_HamsterX, OK. Thanks. :) | 15:00 |
| major_redhat | dsnyders: and plus my T400 gets roughly 6 hours of battery life when I run win7, compared to 2 or 3 from ubuntu | 15:00 |
| bran_ | why is win 7 better with the battery life? | 15:01 |
| Red_HamsterX | umang, it would probably help to start by saying "I have a question about the Wiki license and I noticed that you're a major contributor. Can you answer a few questions?" or something like that. | 15:01 |
| Dr_Willis | bran_: optmized drivers most likely | 15:01 |
| umang | Red_HamsterX, Thanks! :) Will do that. | 15:02 |
| dsnyders | major_redhat, My HP used to get 7 hours. Now it's down to something like 15-20 minutes. | 15:02 |
| askhader | bran_: What you mean to say is why is Windows 7 better with battery life out of the box? | 15:02 |
| === bryan is now known as Guest33318 | ||
| dsnyders | bran_, linux is notoriously bad when it comes to laptop battery usage. | 15:03 |
| Guest33318 | is there a way to keep gnome icons aligned to the right instead of automagically going to the left ? | 15:03 |
| Tearran | you have to change the batteries about 1 a year | 15:03 |
| askhader | dsnyders: I don't think that's a fair generalization. It all depends on how good you are at optimizing | 15:03 |
| Tearran | 2 if you discharge 1nce a month | 15:03 |
| bran_ | my acer gets about equal battery life w/o any tweeks | 15:05 |
| bran_ | xp and ubuntu tho | 15:05 |
| dsnyders | askhader, Is there a distro that comes tuned for laptops? | 15:05 |
| bran_ | cant speak to win 7 | 15:05 |
| major_redhat | bran_: i have a customized mode in Lenovo's power management utility | 15:07 |
| Yanick_ | hi, I just removed old unused kernel modules, but GRUB still finds the boot image files; how can I remove those useless entries? | 15:08 |
| major_redhat | bran_: sorry about the delayed response | 15:08 |
| Dr_Willis | Yanick_: rerun Update-grub | 15:08 |
| Yanick_ | I just did | 15:08 |
| bran_ | no problem, any tweaks beyond power management? | 15:08 |
| Yanick_ | it found everything | 15:08 |
| major_redhat | bran_: 9 - cell battery count? | 15:09 |
| Dr_Willis | Yanick_: you dident remove Just the modules? but the kernels as well? You may of missed somthing | 15:09 |
| Yanick_ | I don't know why, I don't have linux-kernel-2.6.31-14 installed, but the boot image is still there | 15:09 |
| wzssyqa | Yanick_: did you copy a kernel there,yourself? | 15:10 |
| Yanick_ | Dr_Willis, I specified in Synaptic to "completely remove" the linux-headers-2.x.x-x and it did, but grub still finds initrd-2.x.x-x, etc. | 15:10 |
| === zz_FeiRuoWa is now known as FeiRuoWa | ||
| Yanick_ | wzssyqa, of course not | 15:10 |
| Yanick_ | wzssyqa, always used Synaptic | 15:10 |
| Dr_Willis | Yanick_: i always just cheat and use the Ubuntu-tweak tool to clean mine.. when i bother to clean out kernels. :) | 15:11 |
| dsnyders | Yanick_, As far as I know, you have to manually remove boot images. Grub has a mechanism for only showing the most recent, but it only drops them from the menu, not the machine. | 15:11 |
| wzssyqa | Yanick_: del it | 15:11 |
| Yanick_ | wel.... this should get fixed in the uninstall process | 15:11 |
| major_redhat | dsnyders: how old was your laptop? | 15:11 |
| dsnyders | major_redhat, two years, maybe three. | 15:11 |
| leander_craig | so just configured all my hardware , looking to optimize mt ubuntu box , any advice? | 15:12 |
| leander_craig | boot time | 15:12 |
| dsnyders | major_redhat, Original battery. | 15:12 |
| Yanick_ | wzssyqa, alright. wasn't sure it was safe; I was asking first | 15:12 |
| major_redhat | dsnyders: 15 - 20 minutes sounds about right for the original battery | 15:12 |
| Yanick_ | Dr_Willis, where is the grub menu.lst file in Ubuntu 9.10 ? | 15:12 |
| wzssyqa | Yanick_: have a livecd | 15:12 |
| leander_craig | yanick , boot | 15:12 |
| wzssyqa | Yanick_: and move the files | 15:13 |
| leander_craig | ./boot/grub | 15:13 |
| dsnyders | major_redhat, The thing that irks me is that the fall-off isn't gradual. Two weeks ago I was getting 30-45 minutes of battery life, then poof! 15 minutes. | 15:13 |
| === ce_cinta is now known as cew___smarty | ||
| Dr_Willis | Yanick_ grub2 does it differently | 15:13 |
| Yanick_ | leander_craig, menu.lst is neither in /boot nor /boot/grub | 15:14 |
| wzssyqa | Yanick_: it depens whether you upgrade or new-install | 15:14 |
| Dr_Willis | !grub2 | Yanick_ | 15:14 |
| ubottu | Yanick_: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 15:14 |
| Yanick_ | Dr_Willis, will that be in 10.04? | 15:14 |
| TardisGuy | Yanick_: its still under boot | 15:14 |
| chili555 | Yanick_, did you remove linux-headers _and_ linux-image?? | 15:14 |
| major_redhat | dsnyders: have you ever performed a battery reset? (if your power manager utility allows you to do that) | 15:14 |
| Dr_Willis | Yanick_: grub2 is also in 10.04 and its in 9.04 | 15:15 |
| Yanick_ | chili555, on the 2.6.31-14 that I don't have the package installed anymore only so far | 15:15 |
| Yanick_ | chili555, yes | 15:15 |
| Dr_Willis | or was it 9.10.. i get my #'s wrong | 15:15 |
| leander_craig | yanick , mine is right there 9.10 -- try -- gksudo nautilus , unhide files .. | 15:15 |
| dsnyders | major_redhat, I tried that back when my battery lasted about an hour. It didn't change things any. | 15:15 |
| abhi_nav | how to make a keyboard shortcut for any application? e.g. I want a keyboard shortcut for pidgin. likewise (in future I wll create for thunderbird etc etc) | 15:15 |
| Dr_Willis | abhi_nav: the gconf editor tool lets you do that. or 'ubuntu-tweak' tool | 15:16 |
| major_redhat | dsnyders: the majority of the batteries we get at my college (all 9-cell, 85 Whr) tend to die a month after the 1 year warranty has expired | 15:16 |
| Dr_Willis | abhi_nav: or i think compiz settings can also doit | 15:16 |
| Yanick_ | leander_craig, in the console, the files does not exist | 15:16 |
| abhi_nav | Dr_Willis: how to do that? I also have compiz | 15:16 |
| wzssyqa | abhi_nav: system -> perference | 15:16 |
| Dr_Willis | abhi_nav: check the settings | 15:16 |
| Dr_Willis | !ccsm | abhi_nav | 15:16 |
| ubottu | abhi_nav: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or 'simple-ccsm'. If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz | 15:16 |
| KIAaze | ubuntu wiki is sloooooow :( | 15:16 |
| Yanick_ | leander_craig, unless this is Windows, ls -a should list all files.... menu.lst is NOT in /boot/grub | 15:17 |
| cyberbluntz | kismet isnt showing me the essid, how to fix? | 15:17 |
| Dr_Willis | leander_craig: grub2 dosent use a menu.lst it has other names | 15:17 |
| abhi_nav | Dr_Willis: & wzssyqa: in system=preferences=keyboard shortcuts it is asking for name and command. what is the command? | 15:17 |
| leander_craig | eeh , is there a grub2 any where | 15:17 |
| Dr_Willis | abhi_nav: whatever command you want to run | 15:17 |
| wzssyqa | abhi_nav: which application? | 15:17 |
| abhi_nav | Dr_Willis: i want to open pidgin | 15:17 |
| abhi_nav | wqssyq: pidgin | 15:18 |
| wzssyqa | leander_craig: grub.cfg | 15:18 |
| wzssyqa | abhi_nav: pidgin | 15:18 |
| Dr_Willis | abhi_nav: see what the pidgin icon launches.. | 15:18 |
| bran_ | yeah just type in pidgin for the command | 15:18 |
| abhi_nav | Dr_Willis: means? how to see that? | 15:18 |
| Yanick_ | alright. manually deleting the vmlinuz-* and initrd.img-* files, then updating grub seems to work | 15:18 |
| Dr_Willis | abhi_nav: use the menu editor.. or drag the ocon from the menu to the desktop and check its properties | 15:18 |
| abhi_nav | Dr_Willis: and where is keyboard shortcut option in compiz setting? | 15:19 |
| Yanick_ | this should be done automatically when removing linux-headers-* packages | 15:19 |
| wzssyqa | abhi_nav: the programer is hunman | 15:19 |
| [diablo] | bravo Ubuntu... at last we have decent brand artwork and colors :-) bring on the dancing girls ;-) | 15:19 |
| abhi_nav | Dr_Willis: ok | 15:19 |
| bran_ | keyboard sgortcuts in preferences | 15:19 |
| Dr_Willis | abhi_nav: in there some where.. but if you are using the gnome tools. You dont want to use the compiz ones | 15:19 |

| abhi_nav | Dr_Willis: I am there only. | 15:21 |

| rycole | hi all. im using ubuntu server, and im trying to figure out how to properly create a single logical drive out of two physical drives. ive read up on Parted, but i dont quite understand where to start. does what i want to do require both Parted and an LVM install? | 15:40 |
| rycole | or do i just install using the entire disk of one of the drives, and Parted will bring in the other? | 15:40 |

| chiiiiiz | I do | 15:50 |
| Nitsuga | chiiiiiz, did you lost some file or just have the available space counter wrong? | 15:50 |
| poke456 | non | 15:50 |
| Mateo_ | i do, too | 15:50 |

| Nitsuga | chiiiiiz, did you lost some file or just have the available space counter wrong? | 15:51 |
| pat__ | ok merci !!! | 15:51 |
| chiiiiiz | Nitsuga: I did lost files... as far as I know, I did not empty the bin... but I can't find my files anywhere | 15:51 |
| abhi_nav | #ubuntu-fr for french | 15:52 |
| cyberbluntz | Now for the libpcap? | 15:52 |
| Nitsuga | chiiiiiz, did you try to use baobab to find the files? | 15:52 |
| chiiiiiz | I guess they are still on the disk, but the "catalog" that says where they are does not find them... otherwise it would says I have my 500 Go free | 15:52 |
| chiiiiiz | baobab? I did not know this* | 15:52 |
| Nitsuga | chiiiiiz, alt f2> baobab | 15:53 |
| trism | cyberbluntz: apt-cache search -n package_name; will generally find the libraries you need | 15:53 |
| cyberbluntz | thx | 15:53 |
| Nitsuga | chiiiiiz, and click explore filesystem | 15:53 |
| cyberbluntz | that going into my cmd list | 15:53 |
| Dr_Willis | cyberbluntz: sudo apt-get build-dep | 15:53 |
| Dr_Willis | cyberbluntz: sudo apt-get build-dep PACKAGENAME | 15:53 |
| Luke_ | I have ubuntu copied over from an external disk. But abot the third time boot it up it freezes. I am able to get into it through failsafe Gnome what should i do? | 15:54 |
| chiiiiiz | Nitsuga: work on progress... thanks | 15:54 |
| kaje | I just updated my 9.10 box and now I can't log in at the GDM screen... I was able to switch to a VC, stop GDM, and startx successfully... Anyone else experiencing this? | 15:54 |
| cyberbluntz | o its build dep not deps? | 15:54 |
| kaje | This is actually the second box this has happened to me on... both 9.10 machines | 15:54 |
| obiwan_ | guys, do you know if apt uses its own fetch program or wget or something? | 15:54 |
| Dr_Willis | cyberbluntz: tab completion works for a great many commands to fill in arguments... and theres the docs :) | 15:55 |
| Nitsuga | chiiiiiz, good luck ;) | 15:55 |
| === tracy is now known as Holzster | ||
| cyberbluntz | thx doc | 15:55 |
| knxville | DodoBird, What filesystem is the optimal for windows? | 15:55 |
| cyberbluntz | can I call you doc? | 15:55 |
| mrkim | Running 9.10, took an update this morning and now all I get is a blank ubuntu screen after inputting login /username info | 15:55 |
| chiiiiiz | Nitsuga: it has analysed the Verbatim disk: it has found nothing... so I guess the free space counter must be wrong... | 15:55 |
| kaje | mrkim: I'm getting the same thing... | 15:55 |
| kaje | Anyone know what the problem is? | 15:56 |
| Nitsuga | chiiiiiz, baobab is a free space explorer | 15:56 |
| Nitsuga | chiiiiiz, look for a big folder with your files | 15:56 |
| Nitsuga | i have to go. | 15:56 |
| DodoBird | knxville: I generally stick with NTFS, but I'm not running Linux and Windows on the same machine. If I recall, it's easy enough for Linux to now deal with NTFS paritions using FUSE, though. | 15:56 |
| mrkim | I am on a second machine an have done the update but not yet restarted | 15:56 |
| cyberbluntz | so this will do all the ./configure, make, and make install? | 15:56 |
| Nitsuga | chiiiiiz, but to reset the free space counter use fsck-vaft after umounting the partition. | 15:57 |
| Pici | cyberbluntz: No. That will get and install the package's build dependencies. Like all those -dev packages that you're looking for now. | 15:57 |
| Pici | !checkinstall | cyberbluntz You should also look into using checkinstall | 15:57 |
| ubottu | cyberbluntz You should also look into using checkinstall: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 15:57 |
| chiiiiiz | thyanks | 15:58 |
| Holzster | ./wi Pici | 15:58 |
| rycole | wow, i never knew about checkinstall. | 15:58 |
| rycole | that sounds really helpful. | 15:58 |
| mrkim | anyone besides kaje and myself having problems logging in after update today? | 15:58 |
| kaolbrec | knxville, read and write from NTFS works fine now, aside from occasional permission issues. | 15:59 |
| Dr_Willis | if a older version is in the repos that 'build-dep' option saves a LOT of time in compiling new versions | 15:59 |
| sam_ | anyone know of a microsoft project alternative ( i have tried open-proj and found it buggy) | 16:00 |
| Gibby | How could my Ubuntu be booting without Grub? | 16:00 |

| cyberbluntz | ooh, got a new wireshark dev too | 16:00 |
| mrkim | I also tried booting into an older kernel version and still the same result | 16:00 |
| sam_ | Gibby, or the windows one, I forget what it is called | 16:01 |
| Gibby | sam_, I do not see Lilo being installed either | 16:01 |
| sam_ | windowz bootloader or something? | 16:01 |
| tdn | How to turn wlan0 into an access point? | 16:01 |
| cyberbluntz | still missed the libl-devel | 16:02 |
| Gibby | sam_, nope no windows either | 16:02 |
| sam_ | dunno then, sorry | 16:02 |
| cyberbluntz | if you guys might want to fix that | 16:02 |
| Gibby | I think Grub is installed but I do not have a menu.lst, when I try to run grub, it tells me it is not installed | 16:02 |
| inja | how come my numlock dont work | 16:02 |
| Luke_ | hey i have a new Gateway from best buy i have copied over, using Gparted, the partition i used for ubuntu to a partition on my laptop. i can boot into the computer, but when i use regular GNOME it fails. but if i use failsafe everything is fine. any suggestions | 16:02 |
| Gibby | If I install grub, will it mess anything up since I have a custom kernel and everything.... | 16:02 |
| Mohammad[B] | how i can change my resolution in my Virtual Machine for ubuntu ? http://img2.pict.com/fa/b0/6e/3030542/0/scr009.jpg | 16:03 |
| Luke_ | Gibby it shouldn't depending on if you know how to set it up | 16:03 |
| Gibby | Mohammad[B], try to change in the the microsoft program | 16:03 |
| kaje | mrkim: I worked around it, but I'm still not sure what caused it... | 16:03 |
| Dr_Willis | Mohammad[B]: install the vbox guest addations. | 16:03 |
| Gibby | Luke_, so I should just be able to do apt-get install grub? | 16:03 |
| obscurant1st | which is the best im client with webcam support for ubuntu? | 16:04 |
| Luke_ | yes | 16:04 |
| mrkim | Anyone have suggestions with a boot up problem since the most recent update in 9.10? | 16:04 |
| bin1010 | what is linux-image-2.6.31-20-generic-pae mean...mostly I am curious about the pae part? | 16:04 |
| Gibby | Luke_, it says I have grub-pc installed and it will remove that to install grub | 16:04 |
| Luke_ | but i would consider how many partitions you have firsrt | 16:04 |
| theadmin | HELP!!! Something's blocking the /var/cache/debconf/config.dat file, and i can't use tasksel! | 16:04 |
| bin1010 | my other ubuntu box just says generic | 16:04 |
| Dr_Willis | bin1010: lets 32bit kernel handle more then 4gb ram.. rarely needed | 16:04 |
| wzssyqa | bin1010: it support big mem | 16:04 |
| inja | Is this a help channel? | 16:04 |
| bin1010 | ah....thanks | 16:05 |
| abhi_nav | inja: yes | 16:05 |
| Pici | inja: Yes, this is the Official Ubuntu Support Channel | 16:05 |
| Mohammad[B] | Dr_Willis, where is this "vbox guest addations" ? | 16:05 |
| inja | how do i enable my numlock | 16:05 |
| nuki | hello | 16:05 |
| Gibby | Luke_, I have 2 750gb harddrives in a raid1 with a lvm on top of that then 6 logical volumes | 16:05 |
| nuki | how are you? | 16:05 |
| Dr_Willis | Mohammad[B]: in the vbox menus.. and check the vbox docs to learn more about them | 16:05 |
| kaje | mrkim: Switch to a VC (Ctrl + Alt + F1) and log in. Then delete ~/.gnome2 and ~/.gnome2_private. Shut down gdm (sudo service gdm stop). Start up X manually (startx). Log out of that session. Start up gdm (sudo service gdm start). And it seems to be fixed... | 16:05 |
| bin1010 | ubuntu......have I told you that you are doing a great job today? you are.... | 16:05 |
| arand | bin1010: pae roughly means you can use more than ~3.4GB of memory on 32bit, wikipedia has a good page in Physical Address Extension if you want to dig further. | 16:06 |
| Luke_ | then i would use pc-grub or, maybe its grub-pc | 16:06 |
| kaje | Some of those steps may be unnecessary, but that's exactly what I did to fix things... | 16:06 |
| Luke_ | try sudo apt-get install pc-grub if that doesnt work try sudo apt-get install grub-pc | 16:06 |
| mrkim | I hate to be dumb kaje but when do I make that switch to VC? | 16:06 |
| VCoolio | kaje: you may want to be more specific about .gnome2, if you delete that whole folder also gedit plugins and nautilus scripts go down the drain | 16:07 |
| Gibby | Luke_, it says grub-pc is already at its newest | 16:07 |
| bin1010 | I don't miss Windows at all...sure wish though that open office was a closer replacement to MS office.... programs that produce rtf don't look same in OO as they do in MS Word... :( | 16:07 |
| theadmin | I'll go restart, sec. | 16:07 |
| Luke_ | then try update-grub | 16:07 |
| Luke_ | sudo update-grub | 16:07 |
| arand | Gibby: grub-pc is grub2 whareas if you install the grub package you'll get grub-legacy (grub1) | 16:07 |
| arand | !grub2 | Gibby | 16:08 |
| ubottu | Gibby: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 16:08 |
| kaje | VCoolio: Oh I didn't know that... I don't use either of those. | 16:08 |
| Gibby | arand, I see that, just found the readme for it, i just ran update-grub and it found 5 images | 16:08 |
| kaje | mrkim: You switch to the VC first | 16:08 |
| arand | Gibby: Note that grub2 doesn't use menu.lst but grub.cfg which is edited indirectly through /etc/default/grub | 16:09 |
| kaje | mrkim: Virtual console just lets you log in to your system without any graphics involved | 16:09 |
| nuki | hello | 16:09 |
| nuki | :) | 16:09 |
| arand | !hi | nuki | 16:09 |
| ubottu | nuki: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! | 16:09 |
| Luke_ | then you shoud be good at boot it should list all images and OSes but if you find that you can't boot try super grub disk i suggest burning a copy before shutting down the computer | 16:09 |
| sam_ | Anyone got any good project management software tips (not openproj) | 16:10 |
| Gibby | Luke_, already got it, just trying to boot to SU without a disk so I can resize a LV | 16:10 |
| obscurant1st | which is the best im client with webcam support for ubuntu? | 16:10 |
| Luke_ | ok | 16:10 |
| kaje | mrkim and VCoolio: I'm not sure that all those steps are required to get gdm working again. If I had to bet, I would say that it is actually the logging off of the X session you started with startx that is cleaning something up that the update screwed up... | 16:10 |
| solow | http://xkcd.com/456/ | 16:10 |
| solow | so true | 16:10 |
| obscurant1st | at least wt you guys recommend? | 16:10 |

| mrkim | Ok, stopped gdm & then entered startx and have a black screen | 16:15 |
| cyberbluntz | no | 16:15 |
| solow | DodoBird, Oh, you weren't criticizing my url, you were talking about it :P | 16:15 |

| jareth_ | thing which really buggs the hell out of me, is that the mentioned workaround still improves my wfi signal with 30%!!! | 16:22 |
| arand | chazco: In grub2 what you would need to do is edit the GRUB_DEFAULT= entry in /etc/default/grub and then run update-grub to propagate it to the grub.cfg file, unfortunately this is not an instantaneous operation.. | 16:22 |
| kaje | mrkim: to drop out of root, just enter "exit" | 16:22 |

| captainc | I want to be able to mount the ISO and install, but I have been unsuccessful. | 16:33 |
| mrkim | at what point in the process? I tried mimicing each command you gave | 16:33 |

| davertron | hi guys, i was wondering if there was a way to configure apt-get to have repositories on a per user basis, and maybe have it install anything from the per user repos to a specific place (i.e. user's home dir) instead of system-wide? The reason i ask is i have a server running an older version of ubuntu (8.04), and i want to update some software (vim) for myself, but not affect the systme as a whole, and if i could avoid c | 16:41 |
| davertron | ompiling myself (and screwing up and not doing it correctly) that would be great :) | 16:41 |

| blakkheim | duncanidaho1: log out of both and do it in a tty | 17:12 |

| blakkheim | duncanidaho1: no, use ctrl+alt+f2 | 17:15 |
| LostKarmic | lucid_interval: yes, but I can do it again :) | 17:15 |
| kaje | mrkim: just for a sanity check, try doing: sudo startx | 17:15 |

| LostKarmic | apt-get update; apt-get install proftpd-basic "E: Package proftpd-basic has no installation candidate" | 17:16 |

| mrkim | I have my other machine sitting here and have already taken the update, just haven't done the required restart and with this going on I don't think that's a prudent step just yet | 17:19 |
| lucid_interval | LostKarmic: :-( last thing I can think of is do an apt-get -f install (fix any dependencies). Otherwise out of ideas. | 17:19 |
| blakkheim | duncanidaho1: that means it worked, now try logging into kde or whatever | 17:19 |

| mrkim | Hi folks, I've been working with (a very patient) kaje here for a while but we couldn't get my issue sorted out. I'm running 9.10 and recievd an update notice this morning, took it, then restarted per instructions. After reboot the log in and user name screens come up and after entering these the same screen background as the username and passord screens is all that is on the screen. Any ideas? | 17:25 |
| aeiou_ | (i've setup spf records already) | 17:25 |
| Red_HamsterX | reeeeeesty, the name could potentially change every time you connect it. If it's consistent between boots, though, just pull its name from the output of 'ifconfig'. | 17:26 |
| reeeeeesty | but how would i find it? | 17:26 |
| sje46 | mrkim, you mean it's stil the login screen? or the background for your desktop is that? | 17:26 |
| Red_HamsterX | dehqan, just try a few of them. They'll all have more bandwidth than any residential connection. | 17:26 |
| reeeeeesty | i updated the kernel to .32 | 17:26 |
| cyberbluntz | will someone help me config my new kismet? | 17:26 |

| mrkim | Hi folks, I've been working with (a very patient) kaje here for a while but we couldn't get my issue sorted out. I'm running 9.10 and recievd an update notice this morning, took it, then restarted per instructions. After reboot the log in and user name screens come up and after entering these the same screen background as the username and passord screens is all that is on the screen. Any ideas? | 17:32 |
| lucid_interval | vaix: this is command completion (package is bash_completion I think) | 17:32 |
| vaix | lucid_interval: thanks alot - was very surprised just a second ago | 17:33 |
| pasword001 | would like a similar program which is similar to WebcamMax but can not find someone to tell me what program I could like to do? | 17:33 |
| major_redhat | hiexpo: i know that you can read the music from it via Rythymbox | 17:33 |
| RHKratos | Stargaze: that doesn't tell me what flags (if any) the application was started with, which is one of the things I would like to know | 17:33 |

| lucid_interval | mrkim: a few questions to help in analyzing. Do you use a proprietary graphics driver (Nvidia, ATI etc)? Did the update include a new kernel? | 17:34 |

| ubottu | PomkaLK: Information about registering your nickname: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#userregistration - Type « /nick <nickname> » to select your nickname. Registration help available in #freenode | 17:36 |
| mrkim | sorry, that's an nVidia driver | 17:36 |
| lucid_interval | mrkim: you probably need to reinstall the proprietary graphics driver for the new kernel - usually involving a recompile step that the graphics driver would have done the first time. | 17:36 |
| x_ | can i install google earth in ubuntu 9.10 | 17:36 |
| IcyJ | underdev: not quite what you are looking for but take a look at APTonCD | 17:36 |
| hiexpo | x yes | 17:36 |
| lucid_interval | mrkim: you can also try to wire this into dkms (not installed by default - do apt-get install dkms) | 17:37 |
| PomkaLK | VCoolio: For you, what's better: irsii or weechat? | 17:37 |
| hiexpo | x_, yes | 17:37 |
| mrkim | Ok, how do I do this? I can enter commands but hafta be spoon fed since I'm just a GUI guy :>/ | 17:37 |
| VCoolio | PomkaLK: I switched to weechat a week ago, I like it better, it's a bit easier I think | 17:37 |
| lucid_interval | mrkim: when you see the login page - is there any indication (text / quality of graphics) that Xorg is _NOT_ using your proprietary driver, but some fallback VESA driver? | 17:37 |
| pasword001 | hi simply ask what is the Hungarian name for Ubuntu rooms should | 17:38 |
| underdev | IcyJ: Thank you. That's even better- i can keep my standard apps as well. | 17:38 |

| rifter | mrkim, it depends on your irc client ..usually if it's gui you can right click the person's name and choose to open a chat window | 17:43 |
| rifter | Samus_Aran, it's in your sources.list | 17:44 |
| Samus_Aran | umbra_, suffah: so then how does it know what to install, if for instance you put two different version names ? | 17:44 |
| umbra_ | suffah, man...the timeing was like identical lol | 17:44 |
| suffah | haha :) | 17:44 |
| rifter | Samus_Aran, basically you specified in tehre what release's packages you want | 17:44 |

| solow | ActionParsnip, /care. It's not for usage, it's for testing. So to me, it's pretty much like downloading a demo for 30 days, nobody cared. | 18:13 |
| Kamenow | Is there anyone wh owants to help me ? | 18:13 |
| ActionParsnip | Solow: still doesn't make it legak | 18:13 |
| Nyosh | sure, its adamn thing wat d we do !? | 18:13 |
| cyberbluntz | i do! | 18:13 |
| ActionParsnip | Umbra: chgrp maybe | 18:14 |

| LinuxGuy2009 | I installed Ubuntu 9.04 on my netbook, and then the ubuntu-netbook-remix packages on top of it. I switched the view to netbook and the top panel doesnt show most of the time. Any reason for that? | 18:14 |
| solow | ActionParsnip, as soon as i use it, or crack it, it's illegal. as long as i use the 30 day trial, it's not. | 18:14 |

| LinuxGuy2009 | xangua: no i hate karmic with a passion | 18:15 |
| ActionParsnip | Solow: anyhoo. Check your ports on your router are matched to the ports configured in transmission | 18:15 |
| dividebyzer0 | solow: this is actually incorrect. there simply is an activation countdown a quick google search proves this http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=windows+xp+demo+%2Btorrent | 18:15 |

| Kamenow | why everytime when I try to compile something | 18:16 |

| Alan_ | ActionParsnip: what's risky though? | 18:26 |
| ActionParsnip | Hedonista: you can tell pidgin not to use a tray icon and the buddy list window will sit alongside your other apps if that's what you mean | 18:26 |
| Stargaze | AegNuddel, you have CUPS installed? | 18:26 |
| Hedonista | Stargaze, do you think if i installer trayer or stalonetray that may work al;so? | 18:26 |

| ActionParsnip | Yo yo yo | 18:34 |
| dehqan | how apt-get determines what version the distro is ? | 18:35 |

| oLife | I'm looking for a blacklist app, similar to the one Transmission uses. Can anyone recommend an app? | 18:35 |
| vorian | found in /etc | 18:35 |
| faron | i need to no if there is maybe a list of sum type somewhere that can tell me what I can safely uninstall from my xubuntu sys as I would like top make this sys as lean as can possibly be ????????????? | 18:35 |
| psilo2 | ActionParsnip: ah I think I see what you mean. /var/lib/dpkg/info/*.postinst ? | 18:35 |
| Stargaze_ | dehqan, not with apt, try lsb_release -a | 18:35 |
| ActionParsnip | dehqan: it uses the source file. That's why they say your release name on each line | 18:35 |
| ActionParsnip | Psilo2: yeah. Kinda messy way to go about it though. Dpkg etc can give better output on what's installed | 18:36 |
| newclimb | VCoolio: i dont know how to do that? | 18:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Faron: lean in ram or in hdd use? | 18:37 |
| faron | ram & cpu | 18:37 |
| matic | faron, ActionParsnip is very right | 18:37 |
| psilo2 | ActionParsnip: right but the machine is not bootable. The fs is hosed; I am reinstalling the machine and a current package list would be a good start. | 18:37 |
| dehqan | lsb_release -a says it is jaunty nut apt-get can not download packages from jaunty reps st ActionParsnip | 18:37 |
| ActionParsnip | Faron: one good way is to look at the stuff in the menus and remove what you don't use. Which can reduce running apps. | 18:37 |
| VCoolio | newclimb: copypaste the text from the link in an editor, save the file as pastebinit.diff in your home folder; then open a terminal and run the command I gave | 18:37 |
| ActionParsnip | Psilo2: use a live cd and chroot | 18:37 |
| infid | what does it mean when someone says 'it took ~2 years'? | 18:38 |
| Stargaze_ | dehqan, i think jaunty is no longer supported | 18:38 |
| AegNuddel | hmm | 18:38 |
| ActionParsnip | Faron: you can remove stuff like xsane which will knock out a service nicely if you never use a scanner. The program bum will help to a fashion too | 18:38 |
| faron | I was planning on going through synapytic that way | 18:39 |
| AegNuddel | my audio is conflicting with what I need for my scanner?? | 18:39 |
| nevin | infid: in this case, ~ = about | 18:39 |
| ActionParsnip | Faron: you can also remove openoffice and install abiword if all you use is writer | 18:39 |
| VCoolio | infid: ~=approximately, you mean? | 18:39 |
| VCoolio | newclimb: all clear? | 18:39 |

| ActionParsnip | Psilo2: glad to help | 18:40 |
| faron | action.... see I tum xubuntu............. | 18:40 |
| VCoolio | infid: it's rather offtopic, but it's a math thing to have a curled = as 'approximately' but on a keyboard it's hard to get that one so one uses the tilda | 18:40 |
| infid | ActionParsnip: how do you recommend skimming it down? sudo apt-get --remove ? | 18:40 |
| Stargaze_ | plecebo, try xbattbar | 18:41 |

| spinner | how do i change terminal color scheme | 18:46 |
| newclimb | VCoolio: patch: **** Only garbage was found in the patch input. | 18:46 |
| ActionParsnip | Faron: also set vm.swappiness lower if you have 1gb ram or more | 18:46 |
| DarkX | i installed tightvnc server but i can't seem to find any way to configure it :p | 18:46 |
| tehbaut | is there an apt-get search function? | 18:46 |
| Tihomir | hello ninjas | 18:46 |
| Tihomir | :) | 18:46 |
| gabriel | sup my ninja | 18:46 |
| YOY | Hey, is this normal? nautilus freezes for a while whenever i even click an incomplete file that's downloading in utorrent. This is driving me crazy. | 18:47 |
| VCoolio | newclimb: I found the site, get the patch from there, maybe you also copied the line numbering https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pastebinit/+bug/526849 | 18:47 |
| ActionParsnip | Tehbaut: apt-cache search will search available apps. dpkg -l | grep something will search your installed apps | 18:47 |
| faron | ahhhhhhhhset swappiness lower ?? Wow,I was thinking about setting it higher but I don't even kno whow | 18:47 |
| captainc | YOY, utorrent on ubuntu? | 18:47 |
| faron | know how | 18:47 |
| gabriel | anybody know how to get the /usr/share/man/man0p manpages in ubuntu? | 18:47 |
| YOY | yes captainc | 18:48 |
| e45qhtrafgd | Tiders muha | 18:48 |
| VCoolio | newclimb: it's the attachment in the second post there | 18:48 |
| captainc | YOY, Is that native or through wine? | 18:48 |
| YOY | wine of course | 18:48 |
| tehbaut | thanks ActionParsnip | 18:48 |
| captainc | YOY, not for nothing, but transmission is pretty kick-ass. | 18:48 |
| e45qhtrafgd | iykfcm,hvlocfol | 18:48 |
| ActionParsnip | Faron: higher will make it use swap more (more hdd access = sloooow) if your system can run in ram a low vm.swappiness will restrict the system to try and make it use ram more (faster) | 18:48 |
| spinner | some one know how to change terminal color scheme | 18:49 |
| YOY | transmission stinks | 18:49 |
| nevin | spinner: edit -> profiles | 18:49 |
| ActionParsnip | Faron: could also install dnsmasq to have a local dns service to speed up web access | 18:49 |
| tehbaut | is archive.ubuntu.com down? | 18:49 |
| jpds | tehbaut: highly unlikely | 18:49 |
| captainc | YOY: Deluge is good too. Otherwise, I'd monitor the WINE process for CPU usage to see if that's the bottle neck. | 18:49 |
| ActionParsnip | Captainc: enable to web interface too. Remote control torrents | 18:49 |
| AegNuddel | I have an Epson Artisan 700. We have gotten the printing set up but I need to know what I need to do to set up the scanning. I found a site with a possible driver but when I tried to install it it said there was an unsatisfiable dependency. I tried to download it but it said PulseAudio had a conflicting version and installing it would break the package. (Having a broken package does not sound fun!) | 18:50 |
| nevin | spinner: then select the default profile ( or create a new one ) and change away.. | 18:50 |
| ActionParsnip | Yoy: I use it. My g1 phone loves it long time | 18:50 |
| jpds | tehbaut: And no, it's just you. | 18:50 |
| captainc | YOY: Just curious, why do you not like Transmission? | 18:50 |
| YOY | captainc it's not about wine, it's about nautilus. even if i shut down utorrent it freezes | 18:50 |
| tehbaut | jpds: I'm getting "failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/h/hfsplus/libhfsp0_1.0.412build1_amd64.deb | 18:50 |
| YOY | because it's not ghostleech friendlu | 18:50 |
| YOY | friendly | 18:50 |
| YOY | * | 18:50 |
| ActionParsnip | Yoy: utorrent has a few bugs and will ramp up cpu usage til it maxes your chips | 18:51 |
| spinner | so i have to do it grafical it wont work if i make an Xresources file with color codes? | 18:51 |
| Stargaze_ | faron, in Terminal, type sudo gedit /etc/sysctl.conf and then add vm.swappiness = 10 | 18:51 |
| === Swish[\] is now known as Swish | ||
| ActionParsnip | Yoy: there are tonnes of torrent apps native to linux. I suggest you try them | 18:51 |
| YOY | ActionParsnip, utorrent runs perfect | 18:51 |
| YOY | it's just a bug | 18:51 |
| ActionParsnip | Stargaze_: gksudo for gedit | 18:52 |
| captainc | YOY: my initial feel is that it is the way wine has to stream information to the disk and that nautilus is trying to read info about the file. If it is not stored properly, Nautilus may choke on it. | 18:52 |
| phunk | hey homies, does anyone know if it's possible to combine .ima floppy images into a .iso file using ubuntu? i was thinking the dd command but i'm not exactly sure how to approach it... | 18:52 |
| ActionParsnip | Yoy: yeah 100% cpu usage is pretty appauling for something billed to be "light" | 18:52 |
| AlienDK | Deluge is pretty nice | 18:52 |
| YOY | yes, i thought of that, and maybe it's because of the different filesystem | 18:52 |
| _ting__ | hello | 18:53 |
| ActionParsnip | Phunk: could use the remaster system to add files to the iso | 18:53 |
| nevin | spinner: that was just one way. You could use command line switches too. | 18:53 |
| ActionParsnip | !remaster | phunk | 18:53 |
| ubottu | phunk: Interested in remastering the Ubuntu !live CD? See: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization or use tools such as http://uck.sourceforge.net/ or http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/DRU_Disc_Remastering_Utility | 18:53 |
| newclimb | VCoolio: it works thanks | 18:53 |
| jpds | tehbaut: That package does not exist. | 18:53 |
| erUSUL | psilo2: sorry was away; chroot to the install from a livecd run dpkg | 18:53 |
| jpds | tehbaut: Try: sudo apt-get update | 18:53 |
| VCoolio | newclimb: your welcome | 18:53 |
| faron | here's a quest for everybody........on xubuntu i use a program called "xfcenotes " for the panel......i have a problem with it..........when I click on it to open it up.....it opens 5 empty notes & it opens my other 3........how can I stop this strange behaviour ? | 18:54 |
| ActionParsnip | Faron: is there a bug logged for the behaviour? | 18:55 |
| phunk | ActionParsnip: well, basically what i have are 14 floppy images that are install disks for win95 (installing this on an old laptop for a friend). if i had 14 floppies laying around i'd just use those but it's 2010 and i (unlike my friend) am with the times. ideally i wanted to combine the .ima images into a single .iso, burn that to cd, and install that way. hence i was looking at dd to see if there was a way i might be able to combine them | 18:55 |
| YOY | ActionParsnip, just so you know, utorrent runs 99.9% of the time 10 times faster and liter than any other native crap, also it has it's way around connections just like libtorrent, but that's unconfortable using it in the terminal. | 18:55 |
| faron | not sure...not sure about those "bug" types of things ...again...I'm not really a geek...I jst like people to think I am | 18:56 |
| AegNuddel | grr. | 18:56 |
| infid | <Stargaze_> Paine, by typing @ behond the command <- what do you mean? | 18:56 |
| ActionParsnip | Yoy: I ran it in xp and i'd have to kill it off every few days after it maxed my cpu and made my fan spin like crazy. I doubt it runs lighter than rtorrent by far | 18:56 |
| faron | the xfce notes program is really awkward........ it doesn't even come with instuctions for use when you install it | 18:57 |
| Stargaze_ | infid, behond = behind | 18:57 |
| captainc | YOY: E-mail the utorrent guys and tell them to make a linux version! | 18:57 |
| AegNuddel | can't anyone help me? I tried to be as specific as possible... | 18:57 |
| YOY | Well your pc sucks ActionParsnip , i've been a user for years, even in xp | 18:57 |
| captainc | Let's try not to flame now. | 18:58 |
| captainc | To each his own. | 18:58 |
| YOY | that's not flame, it must be a fact | 18:58 |
| infid | Stargaze_: gnometris @ doesnt return my prompt to me | 18:58 |
| ActionParsnip | Yoy: it does in todays standards but it runs everything else I need just fine. Once I add the "light" torrent client utorrent it starts to die. | 18:58 |
| faron | what heck you talkin bout yoy ? | 18:58 |
| YOY | lol | 18:58 |
| ActionParsnip | Yoy: so simple evaluation is utorrent blows | 18:58 |

| mysoogals | how to seed torrent seedbox on vps? without desktop | 18:59 |

| infid | nevin like i said twice, that works perfectly fine, returns the prompt. however Stargaze_ said to put @ behind it, which i was concerned about as to why, apparently that is not correct so nevermind | 19:01 |

| AegNuddel | I have an Epson Artisan 700. We have gotten the printing set up but I need to know what I need to do to set up the scanning. I found a site with a possible driver but when I tried to install it it said there was an unsatisfiable dependency.

| AegNuddel | there... | 19:02 |
| ActionParsnip | Aegnuddel: is there a bug logged for the driver you found? | 19:02 |
| pedro__ | gracias ubottu | 19:02 |
| AegNuddel | I asked once before then added on... | 19:02 |
| YOY | ActionParsnip, why do you think most of the people use utorrent on their linux servers for seedboxes ? even professional people. why not use native, there are few that have the gui... it's because it's the best. It;s obvious that you're not a fan of it and you try to yap around here with lies, i've never heard someone before saying utorrent blew their cpu, maybe if you leech 100gb shit | 19:02 |
| ActionParsnip | Aegnuddel: does xsane not just find the scanner | 19:02 |
| pixide2000 | bye | 19:02 |

| `mOOse` | I just think transmission is for the occasional torrent user - it's adequate for dloading iso's of ubuntu but if you use torrents a lot, it doesn't have many good features | 19:17 |

| rautamiekka | blakkheim: Do you know how ? | 19:17 |
| `mOOse` | deluge is as close to utorrent as I've found and I like it ok, but it still lacks a few features | 19:17 |

| YOY | yes | 19:18 |

| mirek | hello | 19:56 |
| donvito | something like computer stats | 19:56 |
| brinstar | hi | 19:56 |
| TecnoBrat | Does anyone know of any open source alternatives for launchpad? I have 3 ubuntu machines at home, so looking for something quick and easy to manage packages/updates, etc | 19:56 |
| shairozan | juuntian: no no, I just wanted to make sure it wasn't anything too high end. A lot of times Cisco routers can be configured for some weird stuff like double stacking and proxying whenever they receive IPV6 traffic. It wouldn't hurt to see if disabling IPv6 would help the situation. If not we can start taking a look at your log outputs | 19:56 |
| dho_ | is there something akin to autorun in ubuntu/linux that is widely used? googling has been inconclusive... | 19:56 |
| dinosaurvskitten | TecnoBrat, apt-mirror | 19:56 |
| brinstar | can someone tell me what the most similar program to Remote Desktop is for Ubuntu? | 19:56 |
| blakkheim | dho_: no | 19:56 |
| shairozan | brinstar: vnc | 19:57 |
| NfNitLoop | I'm running karmic and I can't copy and paste between several applications. It seems that selecting text in Konsole just doesn't bother putting it in the clipboard, even when I do Edit -> Copy from the menu. Any thoughts? | 19:57 |
| blakkheim | dho_: linux is secure, why would you want that? | 19:57 |
| shadenzo | trovato in documentazione debian ehm......... (shy) | 19:57 |
| brinstar | shairozan: which version is the best? | 19:57 |
| NfNitLoop | TecnoBrat: I thought I read that they released launchpad's software as OSS so you can run your own. | 19:57 |
| dho_ | @blakkheim for the same reason it's been used by software distributors for years. | 19:57 |
| brinstar | there are like 3 i think | 19:57 |
| rascal999 | can I make casper mount a directory and use as root instead of a squashfs? | 19:57 |
| VCoolio | NfNitLoop: Konsole is kde right?, might be that | 19:57 |
| juuntian | shairozan: ok then, so I'm actually disabling IPv6? :-P gotta look on how to do that, I assume it's before logging in, right? | 19:57 |
| shairozan | brinstar: any version. VNC comes built into ubuntu. V4 for windows | 19:57 |
| TecnoBrat | NfNitLoop: hmmmm, really? I doubt that, but I'll check | 19:57 |
| shairozan | juuntian: Don't think you'd have to do it before logging in :) Let me look at it real quick | 19:58 |
| VCoolio | NfNitLoop: just select and then middle mouse, or shift+insert, should be generally working | 19:58 |
| NfNitLoop | TecnoBrat: http://blog.launchpad.net/general/launchpad-is-now-open-source] | 19:58 |
| NfNitLoop | TecnoBrat: oops, no ] | 19:58 |
| brinstar | shairozan: can it interoperate with the windows version? i.e. can i control ubuntu from windows? | 19:58 |
| dho_ | one more question about removable media... is there a way to set a custom icon that will display whenever that media is inserted into a linux machine? | 19:58 |
| shairozan | brinstar: yes. That's how we perform remote work here in the office. It's an interoperable solution | 19:58 |
| brinstar | ok thanks, thts all i needed to know | 19:58 |
| TecnoBrat | NfNitLoop: isn't that the client portion? | 19:58 |
| dho_ | i tried .drive files and that didn't work... | 19:59 |

| shairozan | juuntian: that might actually just solve your issue ^_^ | 19:59 |

| sharperguy | Hey. I have just installed ubuntu (9.10) on a friends computer. While running the live CD the hardware driver manager told me that I needed to install proprietary drivers for the broadcom wifi adapter. For some reason this worked without being online and I was able to connect. After the installation I tried to do this again but the manager just says downloading very briefly and then stops without activating or downloading the driver. I | 20:00 |
| sharperguy | have connected via ethernet which works correctly but i still get the same behaviour | 20:00 |
| NfNitLoop | VCoolio: Yes, I know how to copy/paste. It's just Konsole that's affected. | 20:00 |
| shairozan | juuntian: and I see what you mean. It looks like you would have to add an option to the grub bootup for your kernel. While it may work you'll have to remember to do it everytime you update your kernel | 20:02 |
| Stargaze_ | sharperguy, try http://www.techotopia.com/index.php/Configuring_Ubuntu_Linux_Wireless_Networking | 20:02 |
| xangua | sharperguy: do you activated the drivers in Sis> Admon> Hardware¿ | 20:02 |
| shairozan | juuntian: If you disable ipv6 altogether tha tis | 20:02 |
| dho_ | asking again... is there a way to set a desktop icon on removable media that will be carried with the disk from machine to machine? | 20:02 |

| texas319 | hey all.... what exactly is a cloud server used for? | 20:02 |
| juuntian | shairozan: hmm the bad news are that I'm also having this problem on other softwares like pidgin, or even the updater system. that's why I don't think it's only a browser setting. | 20:02 |
| iceroot | !repeat | donvito | 20:02 |
| ubottu | donvito: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. | 20:02 |
| blakkheim | texas319: online storage of files | 20:02 |
| iceroot | donvito: ask in #php | 20:02 |
| sharperguy | dantu, If you just want to keep your data then just your home folder. | 20:03 |
| shairozan | texas319: Cloud server is meant to be part of a larger community of servers sharing their hardware capabilities | 20:03 |
| texas319 | thats it? | 20:03 |
| xangua | sharperguy: do you marked the drivers and restarted to make efect¿ | 20:03 |
| texas319 | ahh | 20:03 |
| VCoolio | dho_: I think icons are defined by the icon theme (devices folder), not the media themselves | 20:03 |
| texas319 | so what is an ideal use for a clud server lets say as in a web server enviroment | 20:03 |
| shairozan | juuntian: yeah, it sounds like you might want to see about disabling IPV6. I haven't had any issues with it, but I prevent IPV6 traffic in all of my networks until I make the conversion | 20:03 |
| sharperguy | xangua, Well i clicked activate and it just says its downloading very breifly and then the dialog goes away and it still says not activated. I have tried rebooting but it had no effect | 20:03 |
| dantu | sharperguy: hmm so only data is in home... and system is in etc? | 20:03 |
| dho_ | VCoolio: yeah... see, that's the problem. i'm authoring a DVD and both windows and Mac allow drive icon assignment on the media. | 20:03 |
| bin1010 | can the next version of ubuntu please be ubuntu 9.10.11 :) | 20:04 |
| shairozan | texas319: It's basically primarily used for high availability. You have a cloud of servers performing one function, like hosting a website. If one server goes down, the cloud itself doesn't, and neither does the site | 20:04 |
| blakkheim | bin1010: no | 20:04 |
| juuntian | shairozan: so, I think disabling the IPv6 the hardway is what is left for me, huh? gonna do it, I'll keep you updated. | 20:04 |
| texas319 | iahhhh | 20:04 |
| shairozan | juuntian: sounds good, and sorry I couldn't be of much more help | 20:04 |
| texas319 | cloud server = redundancy? | 20:05 |
| sharperguy | dantu, Well the rest of the system files are divided up amongst the rest of the filesystem. Individual user settings for various apps are also stored in home, so if you backed the whole thing up and re-install an app the settings should still be there | 20:05 |
| jpds | texas319: No. | 20:05 |
| shairozan | texas319: That's one part of it. The other is to leverage multiple machines for computing power. For example, you create a cloud to perform a single large function like medical calculations | 20:05 |
| shairozan | texas319: There are a lot of aspects to cloud computing | 20:05 |
| sharperguy | Stargaze_, I will look at that thankyou | 20:05 |
| juuntian | shairozan: hey, your help was essential for me to discard a lot of things, thanks for everything :-) | 20:05 |
| texas319 | yall are giving me alot better answers than google | 20:06 |
| jpds | texas319: The cloud is for rapid provisioning of virtual servers. | 20:06 |

| MartinCleaver | how do I diagnose why GNOME won't start up properly | 20:21 |
| Stargaze_ | for remote connection, vnc etc => http://www.techotopia.com/index.php/Remote_Access_to_the_Ubuntu_Linux_Desktop | 20:21 |
| Lcawte | Stargaze_: did | 20:22 |
| regius | MartinCleaver: /var/log/ is a really good directory to start looking in | 20:22 |
| juuntian | shairozan: nunca se sabe! who knows if you married a brazilian woman, or something like that, haha. | 20:23 |
| MartinCleaver | ./messages, I suppose, regius | 20:23 |
| MindVirus | Does anyone here attend OSU? | 20:23 |
| shairozan | juuntian: lol would be a good way to learn! Sadly I'm already married here, but man I miss the women down there :-D | 20:23 |
| regius | MartinCleaver: Give me 1 min so i can start a ubuntu computer | 20:24 |
| juuntian | shairozan: hmm, after installing linux-backports-modules-karmic, the internet seems more stable... maybe this really solved my problem. I don't know why, but I think it just solved. | 20:24 |
| under | <shairozan> under: you can use VNC. It's interoperable for both. Ubuntu calls it remote desktop and just install vnc free on windows -> real vnc? | 20:24 |
| juuntian | shairozan: i bet you miss! | 20:24 |
| xangua | juuntian shairozan this is not a chat room | 20:24 |
| shairozan | under: yeah :) | 20:24 |
| MartinCleaver | from the blank screen I get, if I ctrl-alt-f12 I can kill the wm | 20:24 |
| under | shairozan: is not free | 20:24 |

| arthur | hello | 20:24 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 20:24 |
| shairozan | juuntian: well at least it fixed the issue. I might add something to the forums to it. Maybe it can help some other folks | 20:24 |
| MartinCleaver | but can I get to a command line? | 20:24 |
| shairozan | under: there is a free version | 20:24 |
| juuntian | xangua: as you may be able to see, we're also discussing a problem I'm having on my Ubuntu. | 20:24 |
| MartinCleaver | or must I use recovery mode? | 20:25 |
| under | shairozan: yes but is not for windows 7 | 20:25 |
| under | xp only | 20:25 |
| arthur | I have an empty hard drive on my laptop | 20:25 |
| juuntian | shairozan: I'll do it too, specifying my hardware, wireless card, and if someone else have the problem they'll be good. | 20:25 |
| arthur | i want to install ubuntu on it without destroying my windows | 20:25 |
| regius | MartinCleaver: can you reach a console by ctrl+alt+f2 or something like that? | 20:25 |
| juuntian | shairozan: thanks for all the help, brother | 20:25 |
| nickaugust | hey i'm tyring to update an init script but when I do this sudo update-rc.d nginx defaults it says System start/stop links for /etc/init.d/nginx already exist. | 20:25 |
| nickaugust | any idea how to fid that? | 20:25 |
| nickaugust | fix | 20:25 |
| arthur | what should i do? | 20:25 |
| MartinCleaver | ah, very good, regius | 20:26 |
| nickaugust | where is rc.d? | 20:26 |
| shairozan | juuntian: not a problem :-D I'm gonna be in here more often. Might be able to help you with something later lol | 20:26 |
| regius | then try tail -f /var/log/Xorg* file | 20:26 |
| arthur | can anybody give me suggestions, please? | 20:26 |
| juuntian | shairozan: i hope not! ;-) see you later | 20:26 |
| shairozan | juuntian: later! | 20:26 |
| Mr-Grey | Excellent the Terminal is rather swiftly to learn. Thank you all for the help. I'm suprised how straight foward it is. | 20:27 |
| under | shairozan: i installed tightvnc, it is free | 20:27 |
| MindVirus | Can someone help me configure my wireless network? | 20:27 |
| shairozan | unders: That works. It's interoperable in both directions. We use it as a failover in windows in case a user has shut down VNC | 20:27 |
| regius | MartinCleaver: or some other systemlog you thing there will be error messages | 20:27 |
| regius | MartinCleaver: /etc/init.d/gdm restart is good command to restart your x server | 20:28 |
| MartinCleaver | thx | 20:28 |

| feedmecereal | Can someone please just give me a website that lists some cheap sound cards that just work with Ubuntu so that I can buy one? | 20:33 |

| SpaceGhostC2C | masu3701, do you have a support related question? | 20:37 |
| ronnie__ | I am having trouble with the package manager in kubuntu. Any advice? should I install synaptics or something? btw im not very bright | 20:37 |
| francisco | I need a fast dock | 20:38 |
| lnkiox | Hi | 20:38 |
| blakkheim | ronnie__: having trouble meaning what? | 20:38 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | francisco, try gnome-do's docky | 20:38 |
| masu3701 | SpaceGhostC2C: no...i have a book called "hacking the art of exploitation"... i dont have the cd that comes with it but i need the C codes...where can i get it? | 20:38 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | masu3701, is this the place to ask for this information? | 20:39 |
| ronnie__ | blak -- I am not sure why but I cant find crap with it -- I have better luck with apt-get | 20:39 |
| blakkheim | ronnie__: use aptitude or apt-get then | 20:39 |
| guntbert | masu3701: that kind of thing is multiple off topic here | 20:39 |
| Stargaze | ronnie__, try apt-cache search | 20:39 |
| ronnie__ | is aptitude a gui package manager? | 20:39 |
| masu3701 | I know and that is why i ask if anybody knew the right channel | 20:39 |
| blakkheim | ronnie__: no | 20:39 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ronnie__, no | 20:39 |
| francisco | SpaceGhostC2C: it works in xubuntu? | 20:40 |
| blakkheim | ronnie__: it is a smarter version of apt-get | 20:40 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | francisco, it should. | 20:40 |
| iceroot | masu3701: #ubuntu-offtopic | 20:40 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | masu3701, try #random | 20:40 |
| skjoedt- | !find rpmdev-setuptree | 20:40 |
| francisco | SpaceGhostC2C: thanks | 20:40 |
| masu3701 | thinks | 20:40 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | iceroot, that isn't the place to ask either. | 20:40 |
| ubottu | Package/file rpmdev-setuptree does not exist in karmic | 20:40 |
| ronnie__ | I really want a gui manager - maybe listaller? | 20:40 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ronnie__, what desktop environment are you using? | 20:40 |
| blakkheim | ronnie__: a gui isn't really needed for such a basic thing though | 20:40 |
| iceroot | SpaceGhostC2C: its not ontopic, so its offtopic. and so.. its the right place | 20:40 |
| Stargaze | ronnie__, try www.appnr.com | 20:41 |
| ronnie__ | kde -- I want to be able to browse apps and download /install ones i like | 20:41 |
| jnfuller | I'm having a problem loop mounting an ubuntu iso to remaster it (9.04 server). When I mount it the casper directory doesn't show up so I can't copy the squashfs and chroot into it to make chanfes | 20:41 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | iceroot, logic fail. It has to do with hacking. hacking isn't on-topic on any ubuntu channel. | 20:41 |
| jnfuller | changes. | 20:41 |
| iceroot | SpaceGhostC2C: you know what ubuntu-offtopic mean? | 20:41 |
| jnfuller | has anyone here remastered an install iso before? | 20:42 |
| mclur3 | is there any way to hide indicator-applet notifications for pidgin when a person logs in or out? annoying when having lots of people online | 20:42 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | iceroot, yes, I also spend a lot of time in there. | 20:42 |
| skjoedt- | I am stuck in the final step of compiling Brutus. Its says I need "rpmdev-setuptree" package to build an RPM. I have searched the internet but cant seem to find it anywhere. Is it part of a group package? | 20:42 |
| Stargaze | ronnie__, you can also try http://packages.ubuntu.com/ | 20:42 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | iceroot, it does not mean anything that isn't about ubuntu. | 20:42 |
| dehqan | how to solve this ? http://pastebin.com/zHjaQWzT | 20:42 |
| blueglasses | ronnie__, go to applications -->Ubuntu Software Center | 20:42 |
| guntbert | iceroot: exploits come under "potentially illegal activities" though | 20:42 |
| erUSUL | jnfuller: server uses alternate installer --> no livecd --> no casper dir ??? | 20:42 |
| iceroot | guntbert: hacking has nothing to do with exploits | 20:42 |
| erUSUL | !rpm | skjoedt- | 20:42 |
| ubottu | skjoedt-: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported) | 20:43 |
| ronnie__ | blue - I got that far and opened kpackagekit and i really really dislike it | 20:43 |
| Jon- | Is there a way to incrase my wifi range? I think it's a driver issue I get a MUCH stronger connection that never craps-out on me with Windows 7, with Ubuntu it's a bit slow and disconnects often. | 20:43 |
| Jon- | increase* | 20:43 |
| fehlersturm | i have a problem i am not shure if it relates to pulseaudio or something else... i am running ubuntu 9.10 sound worked fine but suddenly it stopped working. or to be precise only the output stopped working. pulsaudio deamon is running. if i call someone through skype they can hear me. in the mixer i have selected the right hardware. the right autput modus (analog duplex). nothing is muted. i tried another soundcard for reference... n | 20:43 |
| fehlersturm | o luck (the modules for the sc are beeing loaded. so... any ideas what else i should look at?? P.S. i also used different cables/headphones | 20:43 |
| jnfuller | aha thanks er | 20:43 |
| guntbert | iceroot: don't want to discuss that - but if you read the original question .... | 20:43 |
| donvito_ | How to setup computer stats via php | 20:44 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | iceroot, the name of the book says, "hacking: the art of exploitation." And as a reformed hacker, it has everything to do with exploitation. | 20:44 |
| iceroot | guntbert: no i have not read it | 20:44 |
| xim_ | when you use the open command to open a communication port to the serial, what communication protocol is it using to the serial port? if i wanted to read the other end of the serial cable with a java program on the other side? | 20:44 |
| guntbert | iceroot: thought so :) | 20:44 |
| Jon- | Is there a way to increase my wifi range? I think it's a driver issue I get a MUCH stronger connection that never craps-out on me with Windows 7, with Ubuntu it's a bit slow and disconnects often. I am not far from the access point at all. Beta drivers? Someone help me? | 20:44 |
| blueglasses | ronnie__, you could use the command line to install your software, its simpler | 20:45 |
| skjoedt- | erUSUL: I know it is for Red Hat but I cant find any other method for installing it. I have followed this guide: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-October/021836.html | 20:45 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ronnie__, do you absolutely want KDE? | 20:45 |
| jnfuller | so since there is no casper dir if I want to enable a serial console at boot time all I need to do to make changes is change the isolinux.cfg and away I go on a headless install | 20:45 |
| ronnie__ | blueglasses_, I really want to be able to go to a package manager and browse | 20:45 |
| erUSUL | skjoedt-: it does not have a "make install" target? | 20:46 |
| Stargaze | Jon-, try http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1400250 | 20:46 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ronnie__, if you want, you can use synaptic. | 20:46 |
| ronnie__ | Space -- I like KDE alot better than gnome - will synaptics work with kde? | 20:46 |
| texas319 | eww KDE | 20:46 |
| texas319 | lol | 20:46 |
| fehlersturm | well its called kubuntu | 20:46 |
| texas319 | jk | 20:46 |
| blakkheim | ronnie__: konsole -e man aptitude | 20:46 |
| blueglasses | ronnie__, open a console and write "aptitude" on it followed by enter | 20:46 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | it's not synaptics, it's synaptic | 20:46 |
| skjoedt- | erUSUL: It does. Please see at point i) at the end of the link. Mabye you can find what is wrong | 20:46 |
| ronnie__ | kde is pretty - lol | 20:46 |
| fehlersturm | and the aptitude gui is calle adept | 20:47 |
| Jon- | Stargaze: You didn't read my question, I get a BEAUTIFUL connection from this very laptop with Windows 7, and a piss-poor one from Ubuntu. It's not the router it's the driver. | 20:47 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | this isn't the place to discuss which DE is prettier or uckier. | 20:47 |
| elisa87 | hi who wanna talk with me in private? | 20:47 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | elisa87, do you have a question related to support? | 20:47 |
| fehlersturm | @jon what WIFI card? | 20:47 |
| skjoedt- | erUSUL: I just extracted the source, went into the folder and typed ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr. At the end of the compilation it ask for the RPM package. | 20:47 |
| elisa87 | i'm just bored:| | 20:47 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | fehlersturm, try using autocomplete to type people's names. | 20:47 |

| RPS | Hello guys, I'm using 9.04 and I did a reboot a few minutes ago & lost my sound. I'm getting a crackly sound, but that is only when I turn the volume up very high. Could someone give me some help in tracking down my issue? | 20:48 |
| blueglasses | ronnie__, freedom is pretty | 20:48 |
| Jon- | fehlersturm: What terminal command to find out? I know it's chipset that matters not manufacturer. | 20:48 |
| blakkheim | Jon-: lspci | 20:48 |
| fehlersturm | @SpaceGhostC2C thx | 20:48 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | blakkheim, sometimes just telling someone in person is better. Doesn't make them feel like fail or upset them. | 20:48 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | fehlersturm, you also don't need the @ symbol. | 20:48 |

| SpaceGhostC2C | ronnie__, anything wrong with the KDE one? | 20:49 |
| ronnie__ | it sux | 20:49 |
| blueglasses | ronnie__, yes you can | 20:49 |

| Bookman | I have a hard disk that used to have windows on it. I used GParted to create a new partition. It did, /dev/sda1. Now when I try to format it it just gives me an error. | 20:49 |

| ronnie__ | lol - i want a different package manager for stupid people (i.e. gui) | 20:50 |
| blakkheim | Jon-: 08:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR928X Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express) (rev 01) | 20:50 |
| Jon- | blakkheim: Yes, that's the card. | 20:50 |
| xangua | ronnie__: kubuntu/kde has adept | 20:50 |
| iceroot | ronnie__: no need for a gui, learn apt-get and apt-cache much faster then a gui | 20:50 |
| blueglasses | ronnie__, adept is a gui | 20:50 |
| Pici | I thought adept was replaced with kpackagekit | 20:50 |
| blakkheim | ronnie__: or aptitude, it can do everything apt-get and apt-cache do (and does it better) | 20:51 |
| Jon- | blakkheim: Does ngis-wrapper or whatever it's called work well? Can I just use the .bin from my Windows 7 driver, or is that going to cause major issues? | 20:51 |
| Mardenkein | kidd1907 | 20:51 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ronnie__, if you want to try a new package manager gui, try synaptic. | 20:51 |
| blakkheim | Jon-: most atheros cards are supported out of the box, or with madwifi compiled | 20:51 |
| ronnie__ | spACEGHOST tell me more | 20:51 |
| Stargaze | ronny, surf to appnr.com | 20:51 |
| xangua | Jon-: ndiswrapper nedds the .inf file of 'windows xp' driver | 20:51 |
| neezer | How fast should I be able to transfer something through my 10/100 router? | 20:51 |
| blakkheim | neezer: around 12mb/s | 20:51 |
| skjoedt- | erUSUL: Im not sure. I just tried to follow the guide. I have tried with ./configure but it is the same problem. This is the final and most important step. I need Brutus to work so that I can see my emails at the university, so I am quite frustrated, you see :-) | 20:52 |
| neezer | blakkheim, is that 100 M bits /s? | 20:52 |
| Jon- | blakkheim: I am talking to you right now so obviously it works but I get 1/5th the speed and it loses connection with about 15-20% connection, whereas windows 7 gets 65-70% from the same spot. It's an N-card, if that effects anything. | 20:52 |
| blakkheim | neezer: yes | 20:52 |
| neezer | 1 byte = 8 bits? | 20:52 |
| Bookman | Do I have to do something to the newly created partition to make it useful for users? I see it mounted when I'm logged in as a user, but I cannot access it. I have to type my password just to mount it. | 20:52 |
| blakkheim | neezer: yes | 20:52 |
| Jon- | neezer: Yes | 20:52 |
| neezer | blakkheim, I'd have to upgrade my router, and NIC cards in order to get gigabit LAN then. | 20:52 |
| blakkheim | neezer: yes | 20:53 |
| neezer | What kind of speed can I expect with that? | 20:53 |
| erUSUL | skjoedt-: well it shouldn't be asking for a specific rpm building thing if you are goint to use make install ... | 20:53 |
| neezer | 120 MB/s? | 20:53 |
| fehlersturm | well with lsmod you could find out which module is loaded for the wifi with lspci you get a listing of pci devices | 20:53 |
| blakkheim | neezer: theoretically, but i've never gotten that fast | 20:53 |
| iceroot | neezer: 100mbit/s :8 = 12.5MByte/s | 20:53 |
| VCoolio | Bookman: add it in /etc/fstab with a line like "/dev/partition /media/whatever fstype user,defaults 0 0" | 20:53 |
| Jon- | neezer: You are refering to LAN? | 20:53 |
| ronnie__ | can i just type apt-get install synaptics ? | 20:53 |
| erUSUL | skjoedt-: can you do ./configure instead of /autogen.sh ? | 20:53 |
| blakkheim | neezer: on my gigabit network i only got about 25-30mb/s :/ | 20:53 |
| fehlersturm | Jon- so give us some info on what chipset you are using | 20:53 |
| skjoedt- | erUSUL: Is the tar.gz source files distribution specific? Mabye I have downloaded a source specific for Red Hat. I found it here http://www.sfr-fresh.com/linux/misc/evolution-brutus-1.1.30.11.tar.gz/ | 20:53 |
| neezer | jon- on my lan at home. | 20:53 |
| Bookman | VCoolio, you have to do this everytime you add a new hard drive? | 20:54 |
| trelayne | Hi all, does anyone know whether install the openJDK alongside Sun Java stuff on ubuntu would break the sun JRE? | 20:54 |
| fehlersturm | i have a problem i am not shure if it relates to pulseaudio or something else... i am running ubuntu 9.10 sound worked fine but suddenly it stopped working. or to be precise only the output stopped working. pulsaudio deamon is running. if i call someone through skype they can hear me. in the mixer i have selected the right hardware. the right autput modus (analog duplex). nothing is muted. i tried another soundcard for reference... n | 20:54 |
| iceroot | neezer: and maybe you get the half from the 12.5MByte/s because of the protocol-overhead | 20:54 |
| skjoedt- | erUSUL: Yes, but with same result. | 20:54 |
| fehlersturm | o luck (the modules for the sc are beeing loaded. so... any ideas what else i should look at?? P.S. i also used different cables/headphones | 20:54 |
| ronnie__ | ohh and how do send me highlighted messeges? | 20:54 |
| iceroot | trelayne: its not breaking | 20:54 |
| dehqan | how to solve this ? http://pastebin.com/zHjaQWzT any opinion ? | 20:54 |
| Jon- | neezer: 100mbit is about 12MB down, gigabit is about 120 BUT you'd never get that fast hardware would cap you. It's faster, for sure, useful if you do a ton of file transfers | 20:54 |
| erUSUL | skjoedt-: shouldn't be the case... | 20:54 |

| blakkheim | your* | 20:54 |
| Guest55369 | <blakkheim> neezer: on my gigabit network i only got about 25-30mb/s :/ <-- your hard drive speed? | 20:54 |
| neezer | blakkheim, could that be constrained by hard drives | 20:54 |
| VCoolio | Bookman: I guess, yeah; not too difficult, is it? fstab is there for automatically mounting stuff | 20:54 |
| blakkheim | Guest55369: probably | 20:54 |

| erUSUL | skjoedt-: so i am sorry :/ | 20:54 |
| blakkheim | neezer: yeah, it was with a 5400rpm laptop drive so it would be faster with an ssd or better hd | 20:54 |
| VCoolio | Bookman: but how often are you planning to add a new drive? | 20:54 |
| faron | I feel your painskjoedt | 20:55 |
| ronnie__ | SpaceGhostC2C_: Can i just apt-get install synaptics? | 20:55 |
| neezer | I have been reading a lot about ssd's lately, so that 25-30 for large files sounds about right. | 20:55 |
| Bookman | VCoolio, I have a few machines....it might be a few times. | 20:55 |
| blakkheim | ronnie__: it is NOT synaptics, we have said this before | 20:55 |
| Jon- | My wifi card gets a much worse connection than Windows 7, and cuts out from time to time. Need assistance fixing it, perhaps using ndisgtk? lspci here: http://pastebin.com/D6bbHaPw please offer any assistance you can | 20:55 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ronnie__, it is SYNAPTIC, not SYNAPTICS | 20:55 |
| neezer | I want to get one, but I just can justify the $2 - $3 /GB cost right now. | 20:55 |
| trelayne | iceroot, thanks. All I want to do is copy of the pulseaudio java libs to my sun runtime to get Pulse Audio support through Java | 20:55 |
| erUSUL | skjoedt-: try asking in #ubuntu-motu (politely it is not a support channel so maybe you'll be a little offtopic) | 20:55 |

| xangua | ... | 20:56 |
| Nitsuga | blakkheim, a 1TB hard drive @ 7200 RPM has an average of 80MB/s. A 250B drive, same sepeed, has an average of 40MB/s | 20:56 |
| neezer | I'm using 10.04, and I find it odd that I didn't have to change a config file to port XXXX instead of 22 for my ssh. | 20:56 |
| MindVirus | ronnie__: Ubuntu uses the synaptics driver for mousepads as well. | 20:56 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ronnie__, synaptic pointing devices are hardware, not windows-related. Either way, yes sudo apt-get install synaptic should work. | 20:56 |
| erUSUL | skjoedt-: do not use sudo with configure scripts. only the make install needs sudo | 20:56 |
| MindVirus | SpaceGhostC2C, ronnie__: synaptics. | 20:56 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | MindVirus, oops. Now I'm the one messing up. | 20:57 |

| ubottu | Jon-: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. | 20:57 |
| erUSUL | skjoedt-: that's only a warning. do a "make" and see if it succeeds | 20:57 |
| ronnie__ | I am not real bright you have to work with me. I am trying. | 20:57 |
| markit | hi, I need to install ubuntu in one pc, configure it with packages I need, and then replicate the config in other 10 pc, which is the best way? (pc hardware is different, i.e. different hd size, cpu, etc) | 20:57 |
| skjoedt- | erUSUL: Do I use root for make then? | 20:57 |
| erUSUL | skjoedt-: no; only for the make install | 20:58 |
| blakkheim | markit: you could write a bash script | 20:58 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | markit, get a list of packages you need and then install them individually. | 20:58 |
| Jon- | fehlersturm: Well as you can see from the pastebin it's Atheros | 20:58 |
| Flyzoola | hey guys, got ubuntu to boot from USB (I did the pendrivelinux method with a gig of presitance) I just got a quick question: Will it save my settings, such as my background and apps I install? and should the "Install Ubuntu 9.10" icon remain on the desktop? Does it think I'm trying to install it, or will I be able to use it as a "stand-alone" OS? | 20:58 |
| markit | SpaceGhostC2C: but I have also to configure the programs / environment | 20:58 |
| Nitsuga | markit, you can do an image. Ubuntu installs are not hardware-dependant. Also you can use reconstructos webpage to easily make a live cd that fits your needs. | 20:58 |
| skjoedt- | erUSUL: Make command failed. No specified target. And ./configure didn't work without root. ./configure: line 2203: config.log: Permission denied | 20:58 |
| markit | Nitsuga: image = .iso? | 20:59 |
| Nitsuga | markit, *reconstructor | 20:59 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | markit, then try saving the configs. usually located in ~/.<programname> or in /etc/ | 20:59 |
| Nitsuga | markit, no, a hard disk image. | 20:59 |
| Nitsuga | markit, the make-a-cd is a good option if you plan to do that every now and then | 20:59 |
| ronnie__ | BTW thank you guys sooo much , no one would help me in the kubuntu chat | 20:59 |
| erUSUL | skjoedt-: that could be becouse of previous sudo ./configure runs. i would do a " sudo make clean " then start over with ./configure.... && make | 21:00 |
| markit | Nitsuga: but restore an hd image created a partition of the same size, while I could have to do in a smaller one or bigger one | 21:00 |
| neezer | right now I have only one user on my server that has an ssh port open to the internet, is that a security risk because that user has admin rights? it is rsa key protected. | 21:00 |
| Stargaze | markit, try dpkg --get-selections | grep -v deinstall > ubuntu-files, then copy ubuntu-files to the other pc's and type on the other pc: sudo dpkg --set-selections < ubuntu-files | 21:00 |
| ronnie__ | your tolerance of stupidity is admirable | 21:00 |
| markit | Stargaze: for package list is a good tip, thanks | 21:00 |
| === jono is now known as Guest38424 | ||
| Bookman | VCoolio, I have two other hard drives and I don't see any lines in fstab like you described. | 21:00 |
| blakkheim | neezer: there are some good guides to securing ssh. you want to disable password login and root login and use a bigger rsa key than the default, and listen on a nonstandard port | 21:00 |
| skjoedt- | erUSUL: sudo make clean failed. No rule to create target "clean" (roughly translated) | 21:01 |
| MindVirus | ronnie__: You haven't seen anything yet. | 21:01 |

| blakkheim | neezer: disable root login and that sounds good to me | 21:01 |
| skjoedt- | erUSUL: Still not working. No target. | 21:02 |
| markit | Nitsuga: thanks a lot | 21:02 |
| neezer | If the user account has admin rights with sudo, will the sudo privilages go away if I disable root login? | 21:02 |
| ronnie__ | Also is there a list of repositories I should add? (hope i said it right) | 21:02 |
| Nitsuga | Flyzoola, if you use persistance it will save the changes. | 21:02 |
| erUSUL | skjoedt-: then sorry but i can not help further | 21:02 |
| blakkheim | neezer: no | 21:02 |
| skjoedt- | erUSUL: Could it be that I extracted the tar.gz file wrong? | 21:02 |
| erUSUL | skjoedt-: unlikely | 21:02 |
| neezer | oh...so someone could log in as the username root? | 21:02 |
| blakkheim | neezer: they can login as their normal user and then do sudo su to become root | 21:02 |
| xangua | Jon-2: atheros¿ have you tried with linux-backport-modules¿¿ | 21:03 |
| Stargaze | Jon-2, is your wifi card internal or external (usb)? | 21:03 |
| Jon-2 | Stargaze: It is internal. | 21:03 |
| blakkheim | neezer: disabling the root login just makes it so no one can directly ssh in as root | 21:03 |
| skjoedt- | erUSUL: Okay. The only step where the guide was unclear. | 21:03 |
| VCoolio | Bookman: you mean you have two drives that already automatically mount with user permissions without being in fstab? Don't know about that; anyway, try it for the ones you want to add, it's the normal solution as far as I know | 21:03 |
| neezer | oh, if I disable root login, then the su command won't work? but sudo will? | 21:03 |
| Flyzoola | Nitsuga: thank you! A quick question, why wont it let me install flash though? | 21:03 |
| Jon-2 | xangua: No, I don't know what those are ;). I am very experienced computer user but not in a 'nix environment. | 21:03 |
| Nitsuga | Flyzoola, it won't? | 21:03 |
| skjoedt- | erUSUL: There is no restrictions for me being in my home/downloads dir, right? | 21:04 |
| ronnie__ | i should prob UTFSE huh? | 21:04 |
| erUSUL | skjoedt-: correct | 21:04 |
| Flyzoola | Nitsuga: no, I tried to install it off of firefox, and it told me that I couldn't. Gimme a sec, I'll let you know exactly what it's telling me.. | 21:04 |
| blakkheim | neezer: you can still use su AFTER they login as a normal user | 21:04 |
| Nitsuga | Flyzoola, if you have a more-than-5GB usb drive consider installing ubuntu into it using the installer for better performance. You can get the "install ubuntu" icon by istalling "ubiquity (that will mirror your pendrive install into the install target) | 21:05 |
| xangua | Jon-2: you should try, i made my ahteros work that way; much better that ndiswrapper | 21:05 |
| Jon-2 | xangua: How do I do it? | 21:05 |
| neurochrome | Hi folks, can anyone else confirm that gvfsd-metadata process is hogging 100% cpu? With a recent update in Karmic my system has become very unstable and nautilus frequently hangs/crashes | 21:05 |

| Nitsuga | Flyzoola, also don't use a pendrive for daily ubuntu use or it will sear out faster... | 21:05 |
| Nitsuga | Flyzoola, *wear | 21:06 |
| Flyzoola | Nitsuga: cannot find package "flashplugin-installer" | 21:06 |
| Nitsuga | Flyzoola, you have to update the package lists | 21:06 |

| Four2zero | hey guys im following a tutorial and its instructing me to make a backup of the original samba.conf file, but when i run the command: " sudo cp /etc/samba/smb.conf~ /home/username/samba " it tells me ...." cp: cannot stat `/etc/samba/smb.conf~` : No such file or directory. what does this mean ? | 21:08 |
| Madwill | i'm totally new to ubuntu and i need a LAMP server with RED5 on 2 seperate static IPS i feel a lot more confortable with ubuntu Desktop because of the visual UI is there a big drawBack of using desktop instead of server ??? | 21:08 |
| Nitsuga | Flyzoola, it may be a video driver issue. | 21:08 |
| markit | ok, thanks again :) | 21:08 |
| blakkheim | Four2zero: remove the ~ | 21:08 |
| Madwill | i heard ubuntu server is only ubuntu desktop without UI | 21:08 |
| VCoolio | Four2zero: also there is no need for sudo there if you copy to your home folder | 21:09 |
| Four2zero | okay. | 21:09 |
| neurochrome | Madwill, you can run a server with a GUI, the server edition doesn't have a DE to save resources | 21:09 |
| Four2zero | thanks guys | 21:09 |
| Stargaze | Madwill, read this pdf, page 22 => http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4653463/issue9_en.pdf | 21:09 |
| shairozan | Dropbox rules | 21:09 |
| Madwill | so if i crawl around a little i could get a DE for a server | 21:10 |
| Stargaze | shairozan, it does :) | 21:10 |
| neurochrome | Stargaze, are you linking to fullcircle or something? | 21:10 |
| blakkheim | Madwill: why do you want a DE on a server? | 21:10 |
| shairozan | Just curious what do you mean by DE | 21:10 |
| Stargaze | or something, neurochrome | 21:10 |
| Madwill | because i'm a programmer who allways used windows and feel lost without it | 21:10 |
| shairozan | Ooh ok development environment | 21:10 |
| neurochrome | blakkheim, because he isn't comfortable on the CLI | 21:11 |
| neezer | will sudo /etc/init.d/sshd restart, restart my ssh daemon after I make a change to sshd_config so that it takes effect? | 21:11 |
| blakkheim | Madwill: if you "need" a gui, maybe you shouldn't be setting up a server. just my opinion | 21:11 |
| VCoolio | shairozan: desktop environment > group of gui applpications like gnome, kde or xfce | 21:11 |
| blakkheim | neezer: yes | 21:11 |
| shairozan | vcoolio: Thanks, I'm just used to seeing it as UI :) | 21:11 |
| Jon-2 | neezer: yeah | 21:11 |
| neezer | blakkheim, thanks for all the help here. I really appreciate it. | 21:11 |
| Madwill | blakkheim -> I'm totally with you ! but hell some people dont understand that ... | 21:11 |
| neezer | you too jon-2 | 21:11 |
| Nitsuga | shairozan, Desktop Environment | 21:11 |
| Stargaze | Madwill, did you read the pdf? | 21:11 |
| Jon-2 | neezer: Hm? | 21:11 |
| Madwill | i'm on it, | 21:11 |
| neezer | jon-2 thanks for the help. | 21:12 |
| neurochrome | Stargaze, that IS fullcircle! ;) | 21:12 |
| Losha | Madwill: it's all the same code underneath. You can add the gui stuff to the server edition, or add servers to the desktop edition. In theory the result is the same, but in practice, I think it's easier to add servers to the desktop edition than vice-versa... | 21:12 |
| blakkheim | neezer: no prob, i've done a lot with ssh | 21:12 |
| Madwill | create your own server ! will read it all | 21:12 |
| Jon-2 | neezer: No problem. I am a super-windows power user, new to ubuntu but I learn fast. This wifi driver issue has my head spinnin tho. | 21:12 |

| Jon-2 | neezer: Thanks. I think I'll try backend driver, if I can figure out how to do it | 21:13 |
| Nitsuga | Jon-2, from the experience: The more experienced on windows, the most difficult to use Ubuntu. | 21:13 |
| neurochrome | Stargaze, I have most, though I've come to the point where I feel plenty comfortable and only look at new issues once every six months or so | 21:13 |
| blueglasses | Jon-2, is it a broadcom driver? | 21:13 |
| neurochrome | Stargaze, only up to 31... damn | 21:13 |
| Jon-2 | Nitsuga: Haha, I think that's quite true. I wanted to see if samba was running so I nearly automatically did winkey+r services.msc "damn." | 21:13 |
| Stargaze | neurochrome, also check http://www.ubuntu-user.com/ | 21:13 |
| neezer | I have my server set up and can ssh from remotely and everything. I want my buddy to be able to use windows in another city to stream media from it. I heard vlc can do this. and I've tried it with ubuntu and it works well, will it work with windows too? | 21:13 |

| Mike_lifeguard | Is it a bad idea to run sshd on a port outside the privileged range? | 21:21 |
| blueglasses | Jon-3, its a package for atheros, you can find it in synaptics | 21:21 |
| Jon-3 | blueglasses: Should I do an apt-get install? What does it do? | 21:21 |
| blueglasses | Jon-3, I never used it, but you can try | 21:22 |
| Losha | Mike_lifeguard: it's actually a *good* idea to run sshd on a non-standard port. It means attackers have trouble even finding your server, so it's more secure... | 21:22 |
| Stargaze | Jon-3, have you installed ndiswrapper for wifi? | 21:22 |
| Nitsuga | Mike_lifeguard, it is a GREAT idea. | 21:22 |
| VCoolio | Four2zero: I didn't need sudo, but that may not be default; anyway, you now have a root file in your user folders; if at any time you want to remove it, you'll also need sudo | 21:23 |
| Nitsuga | Losha, it isn't more secure by changing the port. | 21:23 |
| Mike_lifeguard | Losha: Yes, but does it matter if you use a port that's outside the privileged range to do that? | 21:23 |
| blueglasses | Jon-3, It adds more features to the basic IEEE 802.11 management | 21:23 |

| dfdfd | I get the following pop-up error that says /usr/lib/libgconf2-4/gconf-sanitycheck-2 exites with status 256 , Tried everything on bug list , nothing , When i startx from tty ( gdm does not start ) , I can't use key board or mouse , Any advice , The last thing i did was run complie as root a toolchain in /opt? | 21:23 |
| fehlersturm | ok Loshas suggestion didnt work for me... since my system->preferences->sound looks completely different | 21:23 |
| Nitsuga | Mike_lifeguard, you can choose any from the 65k+ ports | 21:24 |
| dehqan | thanks everybody god peace you | 21:24 |
| blueglasses | Nitsuga, true | 21:24 |
| Losha | Nitsuga: well, there are about 65535 possible ports, so it makes port scanning much more tedious, impractical and noticeable. These things help security.... | 21:24 |
| fehlersturm | I have a problem i am not shure if it relates to pulseaudio or something else... i am running ubuntu 9.10 sound worked fine but suddenly it stopped working. or to be precise only the output stopped working. pulsaudio deamon is running. if i call someone through skype they can hear me. in the mixer i have selected the right hardware. the right autput modus (analog duplex). nothing is muted. i tried another soundcard for reference. no | 21:24 |
| fehlersturm | luck (the modules for the sc are beeing loaded. so... any ideas what else i should look at?? P.S. i also used different cables/headphones | 21:24 |
| fehlersturm | this is my systems exact hardware: http://zeug.gerade.org/hardware.htm | 21:24 |
| Mike_lifeguard | Nitsuga: I did already, I'm just wondering if I should pick again from the unreserved ports <1024 (or whatever the number is... the ones only root can use) | 21:24 |
| Jon-4 | Back, disconnected again. | 21:24 |
| Losha | Mike_lifeguard: You can choose any tcp port not already in use.... | 21:25 |
| Jon-4 | blueglasses: installed, does it just work automatically? my connection strength is still weak. | 21:25 |
| Mike_lifeguard | ok, well I've done that already, so thanks :) | 21:25 |
| Nitsuga | Losha, what I say is that if you have ssh in the port 26317, but you use "123456" as password the changed doesn't make things more secure. | 21:25 |
| dho_ | fehlersturm: whenever i have problems and i'm not sure if it was a system change, i boot up a livecd and test it on that. | 21:25 |
| alzamabar | Hi, I can see another Ubuntu desktop on the network, but when I try to access it, it asks for username, workgroup and password. I don't know which workgroup to specify. If I leave the default, and specify the username and password of the remote host, it does not work. If I leave it blank it doesn't allow me...Where can I setup the workgroup for my Ubuntu PCs? | 21:26 |
| Losha | Nitsuga: I agree with that. Nevertheless, using a random port improves security in practice, because the attacker's search space gets much larger | 21:26 |
| blueglasses | Jon-4, try rebooting and waiting a bit | 21:26 |
| _newbie4 | Hi, it seems I have somehow only insatlled parts of kde within my ubuntu 9.10 installation- I didn't use the meta package. How would I make sure I remove all these individual parts before installing the meta package as I should have done, or is it necessary to remove everything? | 21:26 |
| Jon-4 | blueglasses: It started the daemon, would the reboot really help? | 21:26 |
| fehlersturm | dho_: well id like to use my system as it is now. not a new blank system.. | 21:26 |
| blueglasses | Jon-4, probably not, but sometimes yes. | 21:27 |
| Mike_lifeguard | _newbie4: no need to remove, just install the metapackage | 21:27 |
| _newbie4 | ok thanks mike | 21:27 |
| fehlersturm | dho_: but i might try that to see if the HW is dead | 21:27 |
| _newbie4 | kubuntu-desktop, right? | 21:27 |
| dho_ | fehlersturm: yeah yeah, just to test it... i'm not saying load clean. | 21:27 |
| Stargaze | _newbie4, in synaptic, search for everything KDE and delete it, then, in Terminal, type sudo apt-get autoremove | 21:27 |
| Jon-4 | blueglasses Is there an easy way to test out ngiswrapper? How do I go back to what I have now if it doesn't work? | 21:27 |
| dho_ | fehlersturm: it'll just point you in the right direction hw or sw | 21:27 |
| Mike_lifeguard | Stargaze: no need for that, he's trying to /install/ it | 21:28 |

| genii | alzamabar: The samba default is WORKGROUP (all uppercase) but in some cases it may go to MSHOME (all uppercase) . Also make sure you are using a username which exists on the machine you are trying to access, not a username which is on the local machine | 21:28 |
| Subby | dho_: which of them is for terminal? | 21:28 |
| blueglasses | Jon-4, you could simply remove the package | 21:28 |
| dho_ | Subby: both | 21:28 |
| fehlersturm | dho_: well i am pretty shure its software seeing i tried 2 different soundcards and also tried both in another pc and they both work | 21:28 |
| Neremor | I scanned my local mashin with nmap and found an "unknown" service running on port 9666. Any idea which program is using this port? | 21:28 |
| dho_ | fehlersturm: definitely sounds like software... probably pulse =/ | 21:29 |
| alzamabar | genii: Thanks. I'll try MSHOME | 21:29 |
| blakkheim | Neremor: you need to run nmap from another computer | 21:29 |
| Nitsuga | Neremor, telnet it (telnet localhost 9666) | 21:29 |
| Stargaze | _newbie4, you have some kde packages and you want them all? | 21:29 |
| Subby | dho_: should I prefere one? give me a hint which to use :) | 21:29 |
| Jon-4 | blueglasses: If I autoremove ndisgtk it will automatically restore the older driver? | 21:29 |
| blakkheim | Neremor: alternately, you can run nmap -AvPN theiphere to see what service is listening | 21:29 |
| dho_ | Subby: lftp | 21:30 |
| Subby | dho_: thanks, I will try that | 21:30 |

| yoritomo | hello everybody | 21:41 |
| genii | alzamabar: OK. If you used for instance a share which is in "fred" home directory or where "fred" username on the server is allowed, then on the server do: sudo smbpasswd -a fred and give him a samba password. Then do: sudo smbpasswd -e fred (to enable the username under samba) Then restart the samba server with either: sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart or on later upstart: sudo restart samba | 21:41 |
| ikonia | thedead91: logout is very small, approx 6 lines | 21:41 |

| _newbie4 | unop, i found this in the ubuntu help pages, it's near the bottom under the "refreshing/ reinstalling drivers" title: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting | 21:43 |
| ikonia | pigdude: what functionality did you need from the new git version that wasn't in the old one ? | 21:43 |
| fehlersturm | unop: remove, purge, hold, unhold, keep, reinstall | 21:43 |
| fehlersturm | These commands are the same as “install”, but apply the named action to all packages given on the command line for which it is not overridden. The | 21:43 |
| _newbie4 | ah yes, it did that for me too | 21:43 |
| fehlersturm | difference between hold and keep is that hold will cause a package to be ignored by future safe-upgrade or full-upgrade commands, while keep merely | 21:43 |
| pigdude | ikonia, git-submodule | 21:43 |
| FloodBot1 | fehlersturm: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 21:43 |
| fehlersturm | cancels any scheduled actions on the package. unhold will allow a package to be upgraded by future safe-upgrade or full-upgrade commands, without | 21:43 |
| fehlersturm | otherwise altering its state. | 21:43 |
| unop | fehlersturm, --purge is not purge. | 21:43 |

| Nitsuga | Nick-D, you have to edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst file to check the windows partition number. By some reason it changes when converting. | 21:53 |

The problem I have is that it keeps hanging -- the screen will repaint but it won't act on my mouse clicks, including the 'X' button in the titlebar (so the click gets eaten and is dismissed).

| Guest73174 | ubuntu install in safe mode when you choose f3 and safemode | 22:12 |
| JorgeJorgensson | Nitsuga, I am doing that now | 22:12 |
| Nitsuga | ghostnik11, that will show up a menu to choose a kernel. highlight the lastest one and press "e" to eddit the boot line. Look for "quiet splash", and remove it. Press Ctrl-X to boot. | 22:12 |
| Purpley | Hey im thinking of using foremost to recover my files on the partition, I only have this partition and the other one, can I set it to put all the saved files here or will it overwrite my partition and delete ubuntu? | 22:12 |

| tom_mahoon1 | hey guys how do i change which kernel grub boots by default? | 22:12 |
| Guest73174 | i am using my laptop right now in safe mode | 22:13 |
| Nitsuga | ghostnik11, don't forget to write the error down | 22:13 |
| JorgeJorgensson | Nitsuga, there, I just deleted 65 GB...still zero free | 22:13 |
| RPS | I have removed and reinstalled the sound drivers. | 22:13 |
| Nitsuga | JorgeJorgensson, can you write something? | 22:14 |
| Nitsuga | JorgeJorgensson, maybe just the counter is bad. | 22:14 |
| Guest73174 | i went to /etc/x11/xorg-config but nothing to be changed | 22:14 |
| Purpley1 | erUSUL, The file system is fat32 and when gparted scans my HDD it says its corrupted but I can still enter it | 22:14 |
| donvito | how to restart my ssh-server | 22:15 |
| blakkheim | donvito: sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart | 22:15 |
| Purpley1 | If i use foremost to try and recover data can i point it to this partition or will it overwrite it? | 22:15 |
| lachouffe | what is the editor when in a chroot env created with debootstarp ? | 22:15 |
| benubird | think you can always edit with vi | 22:16 |
| ghostnik11 | nitsuga: yeah i should have did the first time write down the error when i tried to boot it through the recovery kernel | 22:16 |
| JorgeJorgensson | Nitsuga, I tried saving a small text file and it worked | 22:16 |
| Nitsuga | JorgeJorgensson, try with something bigger. | 22:17 |
| Nitsuga | JorgeJorgensson, bigger that half of you RAM, to be precise. | 22:17 |
| JorgeJorgensson | Nitsuga, I don't have anything. | 22:17 |
| ghostnik11 | nitusga: but wait when i was in recover it loaded up the intram, something like that and it said it was looking for the filesystem then it replied something like ld/dev something i am about to do the recovery thing right down the error and come back | 22:17 |
| duartman | how can i change audio pitch on ubuntu? i have emu0404 sound card | 22:17 |
| tomvolek_ | HI All, I used to have a CVS server running under 9.04 , now trying to start it aafter upgrade to 9.1 and the cvs server doesnt come up, where can i see its log files to see what the problem is ? | 22:18 |
| grzegorz | jak sie macie? | 22:18 |
| l7 | hey, what's a good photo management program for ubuntu? | 22:19 |
| ghostnik11 | nitsuga: i will be back just give me like 2 mins to get the error from the recovery | 22:19 |
| JorgeJorgensson | Nitsuga, I have 4 GB of RAM and no file that is 2GB | 22:19 |
| Nitsuga | ghostnik11, okay, go ahead! | 22:19 |
| l7 | something sort of like iphoto, but not picasa | 22:19 |
| Nitsuga | JorgeJorgensson, or more than one file | 22:19 |
| JorgeJorgensson | Nitsuga, all I have is the live CD | 22:19 |
| Nitsuga | JorgeJorgensson, fill the drive with 2GB of any data. | 22:19 |
| Nitsuga | JorgeJorgensson, so fill it with randmo data: dd if=/dev/urandom of=/path/to/file bs=1M count=2048 | 22:20 |
| erUSUL | l7: gthumb | 22:20 |
| njbair | when I run `sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' shouldn't it ask me questions? | 22:20 |
| Nitsuga | njbair, questions are asked by package xserver-common | 22:21 |
| l7 | erUSUL: thanks, i'm checking it... | 22:21 |
| njbair | no questions with that either | 22:21 |
| erUSUL | tomvolek_: /var/log/syslog ; /var/log/daemon.log and other files in /var/log/ | 22:21 |
| Purpley1 | If i use foremost to try and recover data can i point it to this partition or will it overwrite it? | 22:21 |
| Nitsuga | njbair, what about xserver-xorg-core ? | 22:21 |
| JorgeJorgensson | Nitsuga, I'm not sure what you are asking me to do here. | 22:22 |
| njbair | Nitsuga: nope | 22:22 |
| Nitsuga | JorgeJorgensson, just check if you can write data to the disk | 22:22 |
| njbair | my x server just stopped working yesterday. I think something weird is going on | 22:22 |
| JorgeJorgensson | Nitsuga, no, I'm not sure about your writing random data process. | 22:22 |
| Nitsuga | JorgeJorgensson, sometimes the kernel saves data to the cache while it waits for the disk to have space. If you fill that cache, you will get a no available free space error | 22:22 |
| cjohnston | how can i remove a version of an app from a ppa and go back to the version in the main repo? | 22:23 |
| Nitsuga | JorgeJorgensson, the write random data thing is for see if you can write to the drive or not. | 22:23 |
| mkey | hey | 22:23 |
| JorgeJorgensson | Nitsuga, Ok, I don't know what to type on the command line.... | 22:23 |
| Nitsuga | !hi | mkey | 22:23 |
| ubottu | mkey: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! | 22:23 |
| tomvolek_ | thanks erUSUL | 22:23 |
| neurochrome | cjohnston, remove the source then sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 22:24 |
| mkey | hey | 22:24 |
| JorgeJorgensson | Nitsuga, the drive check came back with no errors. | 22:24 |
| cjohnston | neurochrome: remove the source meaning aptitude remove --purge? | 22:24 |
| Nitsuga | JorgeJorgensson, you were checking a mounted filesystem??? | 22:24 |
| JorgeJorgensson | Nitsuga, yes | 22:24 |
| neurochrome | cjohnston, no go to system >admin > software sources and remove from there | 22:24 |
| erUSUL | cjohnston: no remove the ppa repo from the softare Sources | 22:25 |
| Nitsuga | JorgeJorgensson, you could trash the filesystem doing that | 22:25 |
| erUSUL | cjohnston: then reinstall the app | 22:25 |
| mkey | bbak | 22:25 |
| cjohnston | thanks neurochrome and erUSUL | 22:25 |
| JorgeJorgensson | Nitsuga, I did it from gparted | 22:25 |
| neurochrome | cjohnston, you can edit your sources manually using gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list --- but when you add a ppa then I think it gets its own source.list so remove it how I said above | 22:26 |
| Nitsuga | JorgeJorgensson, umount it and check it again | 22:26 |
| blakkheim | s/gksudo gedit/sudo vi | 22:26 |
| neurochrome | cjohnston, no problem | 22:26 |
| Nitsuga | JorgeJorgensson, as precaution, I don't want to trash your partition. | 22:26 |
| neurochrome | blakkheim, for a beginner I think vi / vim is a bit hopeful | 22:26 |
| Nitsuga | blakkheim, realize that most people can't even get out of vi... | 22:27 |
| blakkheim | lol | 22:27 |
| neurochrome | blakkheim, if you'd have said nano then that would be more realistic | 22:27 |
| JorgeJorgensson | Nitsuga, it is running now | 22:27 |
| ghostnik11 | nitsuga: the kernel i am running is linux 2.6.31-19-generic | 22:27 |
| neurochrome | blakkheim, s/vi/emacs/g | 22:28 |
| Nitsuga | blakkheim, the first time i tried it i had to go to a VC and kill -9 it :B | 22:28 |
| Nitsuga | ghostnik11, and the error is... | 22:28 |
| cjohnston | erUSUL: neurochrome, it isnt providing me an upgrade package after removing source... nor can i reinstall | 22:28 |
| blakkheim | neurochrome: he wanted to edit a text file, emacs is a good os but lacks a good text editor :) | 22:28 |
| neurochrome | cjohnston, when you remove it you need to update the packages - sudo apt-get update | 22:28 |
| neurochrome | blakkheim, touche ;) | 22:29 |
| cjohnston | neurochrome: I removed the source and then did the update | 22:29 |
| neurochrome | cjohnston, weird, what package? | 22:29 |
| ghostnik11 | nitsuga: this is what i get in recovery: missing modules (cat /proc /modules; ls /dev) alert /dev/disk/by-uuid/08c7f565-ca69-4e5e-area-6b1df372d9af does not exist. dropping to a shell | 22:29 |
| cjohnston | gwibber | 22:29 |
| Pudgy | Is there a way to display/preview all available X-fonts (to use in urxvt) like xlsfonts? | 22:29 |
| Frijolie | where do you "drop" files for your iPod Touch (I've got it mounted but can't tell the directory structure)? | 22:30 |
| Nitsuga | ghostnik11, great! We get the error, I i know how to solve it :D | 22:30 |
| Frijolie | er, where do you put music, video, photos, etc on your iPod Touch if you're accessing it via Nautilus? | 22:30 |
| ghostnik11 | nitsuga: wow how do i get to your level of ubuntu experience | 22:30 |
| Nitsuga | ghostnik11, just use it. | 22:31 |
| neurochrome | cjohnston, did you remove the third party source and the authentication key? | 22:31 |
| Nitsuga | ghostnik11, ask help here, and see how sonner or later someone has the same issue :D | 22:31 |
| Frijolie | the only folders I see on the iPod Touch are /DCIM/100APPLE | 22:31 |
| ghostnik11 | nitsuga: okay thanks for the advice | 22:31 |
| cjohnston | I unchecked the ppa source... and then did the reload.. then update | 22:31 |
| cjohnston | neurochrome: ^ | 22:31 |
| neurochrome | Frijolie, you need to install the correct ifuse ppa | 22:31 |
| Nitsuga | ghostnik11, do you know in which device is Ubutnu installed (/dev/xxx) | 22:32 |
| neurochrome | cjohnston, remove the relevant authentication key also | 22:32 |
| ghostnik11 | nitsuga: i can get it for you hold on one sec | 22:32 |
| Frijolie | neurochrome, is "http://ppa.launchpad.net/jonabeck/ppa/ubuntu" not the right one? | 22:32 |
| Nitsuga | ghostnik11, okay | 22:32 |
| lachouffe | Hi, does anyone knows a good tutorial explaining how to install dev version of soft that depend libraries newer than one of my distribution ? | 22:33 |
| cjohnston | neurochrome: how do i find out which one it is and remove it? | 22:33 |
| neurochrome | cjohnston, then do "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 22:33 |
| neurochrome | cjohnston, it'll have the same name as the ppa you added | 22:33 |
| cjohnston | where do I look neurochrome | 22:34 |
| ghostnik11 | nitsuga: i have it as /dev/sda1 for the ext3 filesystem, /dev/sda2 for extended and /dev/sda5 fore linux swap | 22:34 |
| neurochrome | cjohnston, first try sudo apt-get dist-upgrade just to be sure | 22:34 |
| neurochrome | Frijolie, http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/03/sync-iphone-and-ipod-touch-in-ubuntu.html | 22:34 |
| cjohnston | neurochrome: dist-upgrade gave nothing | 22:35 |
| mw88 | Abend | 22:35 |
| Nitsuga | ghostnik11, okay. I have to know your partition's UUID. execute sudo blkid /dev/sda1 | 22:35 |
| ghostnik11 | nitsuga: okay | 22:35 |
| neurochrome | cjohnston, system>admin>software sources then go to authentication tab and see what's there, then report back | 22:35 |
| mw88 | Oh, good evening ^^ | 22:35 |
| Frijolie | neurochrome, I don't have an iPhone...i have an iPod | 22:35 |
| Frijolie | neurochrome, and it's not "firmware version 3" | 22:36 |
| ghostnik11 | nitsuga: /dev/sda1: UUID="08c7f565-ca69-4e5e-aeaa-6b1df372d9af" TYPE="ext4" | 22:36 |
| cjohnston | neurochrome: removed key.. update && upgrade still gave nothing | 22:36 |
| neurochrome | Frijolie, that guide should support <iPod fw v 3 | 22:36 |
| Frijolie | ok, I'll give it a shot | 22:37 |
| Nitsuga | ghostnik11, okay i don't know how to fix this. This is new, you UUID matche but you can moutn it anyway... | 22:37 |
| blerk | i've just upgraded to the latest 10.04-dev, but i didnt find the new theme/light look in there, the purple background was installed, are the new themes in -dev yet? and if not what is the eta? | 22:37 |
| Nitsuga | ghostnik11, idea! i now know how to fix it. | 22:37 |
| neurochrome | cjohnston, strange - post the version output of sudo apt-cache show gwibber | 22:37 |
| Nitsuga | ghostnik11, sorry to ask again, do you run karmic? | 22:37 |
| Mr-Grey | does FreeBSD work decent on ubuntu? | 22:38 |
| * I^llGetOverIt sweet dreams are made of this | 22:38 | |
| stdisease | blerk, #ubuntu+1 | 22:38 |
| stukz | im having trouble with the built in webcam on my laptop | 22:38 |
| Mr-Grey | or work at all for that matter | 22:38 |
| stdisease | Mr-Grey, sure, as a virtual appliance | 22:38 |
| cjohnston | neurochrome: Version: 2.29.91~bzr630-0ubuntu1~daily1 | 22:38 |
| ghostnik11 | nitsuga: yeah i run karmic koala | 22:38 |
| Nitsuga | ghostnik11, mount you ubutnu install and tell me where did you mount it. | 22:38 |
| neurochrome | cjohnston, what version of ubuntu you on? | 22:38 |
| cyberbluntz | who knows what about KDE? | 22:39 |
| Mr-Grey | Excellent thank you stdisease. I'm in hopes it will solve my problem with my webcam. The cam is not really important but it's bugging me to get it to work. | 22:39 |
| ghostnik11 | nitsuga: okay | 22:39 |
| cjohnston | neurochrome: lucid | 22:39 |
| Frijolie | neurochrome, http://pastebin.com/kmvswEyV (Unmet dependencies) | 22:40 |
| Frijolie | neurochrome, "broken packages" | 22:40 |
| neurochrome | cjohnston, well, I honestly couldn't tell you what _should_ be there then, it is still alpha after all, only another tester could confirm that theirs is different or the same | 22:40 |
| ghostnik11 | nitsuga: i can't mount it b/c it is a ext 4 filesystem and my ubuntu 8.10 running from my external hard drive is telling me it can't mount it | 22:40 |
| cjohnston | neurochrome: thats the package from the daily.. but it hasnt been working for a few days | 22:40 |
| apn | cjohnston: check "about" of various applications. People in credits know a little. | 22:40 |
| stdisease | 8.10 maybe that doesn't have kernel with support for ext4 | 22:40 |
| Nitsuga | ghostnik11, ouch! | 22:40 |
| ghostnik11 | stdisease: yeah that is what it is saying | 22:41 |
| Nitsuga | ghostnik11, mm I think you can change it in grub anyway... | 22:41 |
| ghostnik11 | nitsuga: what do i have to change | 22:41 |
| cjohnston | thanks neurochrome and apn | 22:41 |
| neurochrome | cjohnston, I'd remove and re-install - sudo apt-get purge gwibber | 22:41 |
| stdisease | ghostnik11, install a newer kernel on your 8.10, or compile a new on, 2.6.33 is on kernel.org | 22:41 |
| seanbrystone_ | whats the fstab entry to create to make a drive auto mount, and give full read/write permissions to everyone? | 22:42 |
| Nitsuga | ghostnik11, well, try this: in the grub menu (hold shift when loading) press the "e" key. look for UUID=08c7f565-ca69-4e5e-aeaa-6b1df372d9af and change it into /dev/sda1 . | 22:42 |
| neurochrome | Frijolie, what version of Ubuntu are you using? | 22:42 |
| erUSUL | seanbrystone_: depends on the filesystem used | 22:42 |
| seanbrystone_ | ext4 | 22:42 |
| Frijolie | neurochrome, 9.10 | 22:42 |
| ghostnik11 | stdisease: i have never complied a kernel in my life but i am about to try what nitsuga just said if not then i will have to learn how to compile a kernel for 8.10 | 22:43 |
| fallore | can someone teach me how to find and close processes? like programs that are no longer responding, etc | 22:43 |
| seanbrystone_ | fallore, htop | 22:43 |
| erUSUL | fallore: pkill nameoftheprocess | 22:43 |
| neurochrome | Frijolie, well if you have all sources enabled then I couldn't tell you why that fails to work - so long as you added the ppa (sudo add-apt-repository ppa:pmcenery/ppa) | 22:44 |
| fallore | how do i determine the name of the process, erusul? is there a command to list them or something? | 22:44 |
| erUSUL | fallore: ps aux for example | 22:44 |
| neurochrome | fallore, you can just use top instead of htop | 22:44 |
| erUSUL | fallore: pkill firefox; pkill gedit; etc... usually is the command name | 22:44 |
| fallore | ok, thanks erusul :) | 22:45 |
| fallore | and everyone else! | 22:45 |
| seanbrystone_ | neurochrome, you got prob with htop? | 22:45 |
| neurochrome | seanbrystone, no it just ins't installed by default and top is | 22:45 |
| Mr-Grey | Fallore: On my ubuntu I have a System Monitor application under the System menu which you can then go to processes and locate it that way if you plan on using the GUI | 22:45 |
| rawake | i'm trying to run "apt-get install php5-dev" but i get this error, "Err http://us.archive.ubuntu.com hardy-updates/main libssl-dev 0.9.8g-4ubuntu3.3". how do i fix this? | 22:45 |
| neurochrome | s/ins't/isn't/g | 22:45 |
| stdisease | ghostnik11, you can also try mounting as ext3 if you're lucky it'll mount if not, just fetch .deb kernels from a newer ubuntu release and sudo dpkg -i <.deb> them | 22:45 |
| patri | hi, who can help me? i dont know how install amsn in ubuntu, i cannot enter in synaptic. please help me | 22:45 |
| fallore | thanks Mr-Grey! i wasn't sure what that did, should've checked it out. | 22:46 |
| seanbrystone_ | neurochrome, yeah so? how hard is it to install? lol its not a huge program. | 22:46 |
| Frijolie | neurochrome, i'm going through it again...we'll see if it's any different. Is it worth an "upgrade-manager -d"? | 22:46 |
| Mr-Grey | fallore: Anytime | 22:46 |
| Tatsuya6400 | does any1 know if i can close Transmission then run it later without it losing my incomplete downloads? | 22:46 |
| neurochrome | seanbrystone, wow no need to get beefy ;) | 22:46 |
| stdisease | rawake, try 'apt-get update' first | 22:46 |
| stdisease | Tatsuya6400, sure, it'll pick up where it left off | 22:47 |
| Nitsuga | fallore, if you have a frozen window you cn use xkill to kill it by clicking on it. | 22:47 |
| fallore | how do i do that, nitsuga? | 22:47 |
| Tatsuya6400 | thx i was wary to try it myself lol | 22:47 |
| Nitsuga | fallore, press alt-f2 and type xkill | 22:47 |
| rawake | stdisease: heh thanks | 22:47 |
| tom_mahoon1 | patri: what do you mean you can't enter in synaptic | 22:47 |
| neurochrome | Frijolie, possibly, if you foolow it to the letter then it should be ok | 22:47 |
| fallore | oh great :D thanks Nitsuga | 22:47 |
| erUSUL | Tatsuya6400: sure; bittorrents downloads can be restatrted | 22:47 |
| Frijolie | neurochrome, same result..all repos are enabled in "Software Sources" and just did a "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade" | 22:47 |
| Nitsuga | fallore, to cancel press right button | 22:48 |
| neurochrome | Frijolie, did you add the relevant ppa | 22:48 |
| Frijolie | neurochrome, the "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:pmcenery/ppa"? Yes | 22:48 |
| JorgeJorgensson | Nitsuga, this disk check is taking a very long time. | 22:49 |
| neurochrome | Frijolie, couldn't tell you then sorry | 22:49 |
| neurochrome | gtg | 22:49 |
| Nitsuga | JorgeJorgensson, humm... i hope you didn't break the filesystem :( | 22:49 |
| cyberbluntz | you almost dont even need the terminAl | 22:49 |
| Mr-Grey | Ah, so xkill kills the process you currently have loaded upon the screen correct? | 22:50 |
| cyberbluntz | thats crazy | 22:50 |
| Mr-Grey | or the "active window" I could say | 22:50 |
| cyberbluntz | just give the run as admin option on pop up menu | 22:50 |
| Nitsuga | Mr-Grey, technically it forcefully closes the window. That will kill most porcesses, but some may choose to continue | 22:50 |
| cyberbluntz | join #ubuntu-offtopic | 22:51 |
| Nitsuga | Mr-Grey, it changes the cursor to an X, click o a window, and it's gone! | 22:51 |
| donvito2 | were can i find the /www/ folder on ubuntu | 22:51 |
| Mr-Grey | Excellent tip to know Nitsuga, thank you kindly :) | 22:51 |
| stdisease | donvito2, /var/www | 22:51 |
| abysse | hi | 22:52 |
| Mr-Grey | I feel like a kid in a candy store learning all of this. I've been wanting to learn linux for years just never had the patience to actually do it but I'm not getting any younger | 22:52 |
| ghostnik11 | nitsuga: nope didn't work at all | 22:52 |
| seanbrystone_ | !yay | Mr-Grey | 22:52 |
| ubottu | Mr-Grey: Glad you made it! :-) | 22:52 |
| Mr-Grey | lol me too! | 22:53 |
| datz | Hi, I was wondering if I don't update for awhile, and their are multiple kernel updates in that time, will I be able to update to the latest one, or will I have to update to each missed one in order? | 22:53 |
| cyberbluntz | I feel comfortable enough to be classified as a user within the terminal | 22:53 |
| ghostnik11 | nitsuga: it said /dev/sda1 was not there or something like that but when i was looking in the edit file it said root hd 0,1 | 22:53 |
| Elrox | Mr-Grey, i was just like that 5 years ago when i first got here, and kinda still am sometimes | 22:54 |
| ghostnik11 | nitsuga: then when i was booting off my external harddrive it said the same uuid but hd 0,4 | 22:54 |
| Nitsuga | ghostnik11, it is ok, now grubs uses 1-based count for partitions. | 22:54 |
| mizerydearia | I am using gentoo linux and am having an issue with Firefox. I want to determine if this issue is specific to gentoo linux's portage installations of firefox or if it applies to ALL linux-versions of firefox. ------> Using Firefox's integrated print preview I have been unable to remove the header showing the title of the page (on left) and the url (on right). I was able to remove these headers w | 22:54 |
| mizerydearia | hen actually printing, but not when print previewing. Is this issue specific to gentoo or my installation of firefox, or is this an issue with linux-based firefox entirely? | 22:54 |
| stdisease | mizerydearia, #gentoo | 22:54 |
| mizerydearia | o_o | 22:54 |
| JorgeJorgensson | Nitsuga, ok, whew finished. | 22:54 |
| stdisease | mizerydearia, hm nm | 22:54 |
| mizerydearia | ^_^ | 22:54 |
| Nitsuga | ghostnik11, mmm... that's weird. | 22:55 |
| chili555 | datz, skipping is perfectly fine | 22:55 |
| Nitsuga | JorgeJorgensson, check the uoutut of fsck in the details section of the progress window in gparted | 22:55 |
| ghostnik11 | nitsuga: any other ideas that i can try for now b/c i have to go to go check on my bacteria in lab and i wont be back till 9:30 are you going to still be in the chat room | 22:55 |
| JorgeJorgensson | Nitsuga, I will pastebin | 22:56 |
| Mr-Grey | Elrox: When I installed ubunto it found all of my hardware and installed the proper drivers except a webcam I'm not concerned about so I basicly just made a true switch from Windows. With windows 7 etc I don't have 200 bucks to fork over to them and plus I like the comunity of people who do not mind helping out with questions. You can never get that kind of support out of microsoft | 22:56 |
| cyberbluntz | what are you growin? | 22:56 |
| cyberbluntz | e-coli? ^^ | 22:57 |
| stdisease | mizerydearia, seems all firefoxen do that | 22:57 |
| pfred1 | is there a channel for ubuntu networking? | 22:57 |
