| mcsmurf | oh *sigh* when starting scite under KDE => crash | 00:43 |
| mcsmurf | when launching scite under GNOME => it works | 00:44 |

| yourmghq | sudobash: it says compact dic | 00:44 |

| sudobash | I guess scite is unstable? use something else... | 00:44 |
| yourmghq | sudobash: but the thing is i have had it work in windows | 00:44 |
| anti | yes | 00:44 |
| sudobash | hmmm how old is the drive | 00:44 |
| Typos_King | mcsmurf: where did you get it from? the repositories? | 00:45 |

| mcsmurf | Typos_King: I found https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/scite/+bug/373506 stacktrace seems to be a bit different, but someone observed that there (Comment 6) | 00:45 |
| Typos_King | mcsmurf: ...and... sooo.. biggie... I've used SciTE.... I prefer Geany myself :|, it does the same, just faster | 00:45 |

| Typos_King | anti: yeah, you may want to go to the local store and get some of that :P | 00:46 |
| Pici | anti: What does that have to do with Ubuntu? | 00:46 |

| sudobash | there are a lot of things that could be going on yourmghq, I'm thinking one of these: dvd laser went out, tracks have something on them, IDE cable might be bad? | 00:47 |

| omar_next | erUSUL, ok | 00:48 |

| yourmghq | i will check mine | 00:48 |
| yourmghq | sudobash: thanks for your help | 00:48 |

| philipro | Hi, I'm having trouble with installing Ubuntu 9.10 on a 4 year old Windows PC (2.8GHz Pentium D, 512mb ram, FX5200). I've been trying multiple methods of installing for days. I downloaded the official ISO, and checked the MD5 with the ubuntu site, and it matched. I tried using a CD install, as well as a flash drive install using two different methods (uNetbootin and Universal USB Installer... | 00:55 |
| philipro | ...1.1). I've tried all of these methods several times. When I attempt to install or run ubuntu, i simply get several lines of code showing up on my screen, then the system halts, and I never make it to the graphical install screens that I've seen online. does anyone have any suggestions? | 00:55 |
| Bob_Dole | it's a server, but it has a GUI(that I've been using a lot for non-server things while I've been in the hospital) | 00:55 |
| Faithful | thanks | 00:55 |

| philipro | I did. I then tried "run ubuntu without any changes" and it still locked up. | 01:01 |
| GrizzLyCRO | there is no menu.lst in 9.10 i think | 01:01 |
| sudobash | philipro try the Ubuntu Alternative Installer | 01:01 |
| erUSUL | Zenker: is not ubuntu support i.e it is more ontopic in ##linux | 01:01 |

| GrizzLyCRO | not beta, just default | 01:02 |
| Zenker | erusul well, the following question was , what firewall can i get for UBUNTU | 01:02 |
| sudobash | Philipro use the test RAM feature on the CD if nothing else works try to change out the CDROM/DVDROM cable if it is an old IDE type | 01:02 |
| === sixtila is now known as Guest65549 | ||
| erUSUL | !firewall | Zenker | 01:02 |
| ubottu | Zenker: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI frontends such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist. | 01:02 |

| sudobash | Zenker try firestarter: sudo apt-get install firestarter | 01:02 |

| Zenker | erusul no im asking why u got so defensive about me asking about viruses in a ubuntu support channel, the very channel i was told that viruses are unlikely in ubuntu, and ive noticed some unusual network traffic every since i installed ubuntu and every time i run it , not trying 2 start something, just trying 2 get to the bottom of it | 01:08 |
| vito__ | ciao | 01:08 |
| sudobash | I tell my customers that get linux, it will not get viruses because really it is the truth, I'm not lying, I don't say it's impossible to get a virus in Linux, I say you won't get a virus most likely... | 01:08 |
| erUSUL | razz1: if you do :wq vim will writte the file you have open as you opened it. i.e « vim hello.cpp » edit edit edit « :wq » will *W*ritte the file and *Q*uit vim | 01:09 |

| hal | one is white text "oo" on green background, and the other is blue text "MM" on black background | 01:11 |
| natediddy | i downloaded the eclipse 3.5 package and extracted | 01:11 |
| erUSUL | Zenker: your comment and the page you linked loked like offtopic to me and i told you so. nothing more nothing less. if your question 1) mentioned you use ubuntu 2) ioncluded the concerns about outgoing unknown connections it would be different but as you expressed it it was too general that's why i directed you to ##linux | 01:11 |
| erUSUL | Zenker: i think you are overreacting | 01:11 |
| sudobash | philipro it will have a menu but it doesn't boot up Live OS it is a basic installer cd but it still has RAM test from CD no Flashdrive because of unetbootin custom menu | 01:12 |

| philipro | are you speaking to me sudobash? | 01:16 |
| sudobash | right well it's the same thing actually | 01:16 |
| natediddy | no me | 01:16 |
| jaycount | natediddy, you can install it via apt-get | 01:16 |
| Zenker | erUSUL ive always believed it all comes down to 1's and 0's anyhow, so where theres a will theres a way, therefor i dont put any sensitive information on a computer anyhow, so its all good, im just trying to fig out who keeps trying 2 login to my network all the time | 01:16 |
| natediddy | i already downloaded it though | 01:16 |
| sudobash | && just executes the next command after the previous one completes | 01:16 |
| natediddy | and i extracted to Desktop | 01:16 |
| natediddy | i just cant run it | 01:16 |
| natediddy | lol i dont know | 01:16 |
| jaycount | natediddy, then do as they say, from the terminal you need to configure, make, and make install. but using apt-get will be 100x easier | 01:17 |
| philipro | sudobash: the memory test said: "Pass complete, no errors". so the memory is good. i'm going to try this alternate install as soon as its downloaded. you said to use unetbootin and a flash drive? | 01:17 |
| paraplegicpanda | Nostromo Speedpad n50 | 01:17 |
| paraplegicpanda | Need help | 01:17 |
| natediddy | ok ill try apt-get | 01:17 |
| DagmarX | Zenker: Getting mystery ssh attempts at all hours of the day and night? | 01:17 |
| sudobash | Zenker if you are really worried you should start using OpenBSD with Packet Filter which is like the ultimate firewall (put it on an old POS PC) | 01:17 |
| jaycount | natediddy, in your terminal type "sudo apt-get install eclipse", itll do the rest | 01:17 |
| lukey | Hi everyone - is anyone aware of any library issues with cupsd -> libcupsmime ? I went to print a folde | 01:17 |
| awayne | my wifi icon is gone | 01:17 |
| natediddy | jaycount, should i delete the one i already downloaded? | 01:17 |
| lukey | file today and I ran up against this :( | 01:17 |
| vito__ | hello | 01:17 |
| awayne | it asked if i wanted to allow keyring or something i clicked deny | 01:17 |
| jaycount | natediddy, sure, it wont hurt anything if you dont but you might as well free up the space | 01:18 |
| awayne | i just didnt know | 01:18 |
| vito__ | helo | 01:18 |
| jaycount | natediddy, are you familiar with apt-get at all? | 01:18 |
| awayne | how do i get the wifi icon back up | 01:18 |
| natediddy | yeah i am | 01:18 |
| awayne | in my system tray upper right by my clock | 01:18 |
| natediddy | used it a few times so far | 01:18 |
| sudobash | awayne restart and next time it asks you hit accept or ok whatever | 01:18 |
| jaycount | natediddy, it's by far the easiest way to install software packages, id go ahead and do that, it'll even take care of the dependencies for you | 01:18 |
| erUSUL | awayne: alt + f2 run nm-applet | 01:18 |
| IdleOne | awayne: right click on the panel and add to panel | 01:18 |
| Zenker | dagmarx idk exactly, my router continues to shut down all connections and the provider said its because of someone trying to login with incorrect username/password over and over again | 01:18 |
| IdleOne | or what erUSUL said | 01:19 |
| natediddy | ok thanx jaycount | 01:19 |
| jaycount | natediddy, no prob | 01:19 |
| sudobash | it might ask you to create a keyring password or if the admin that installed it was smart they would have set it to the same password the root account has | 01:19 |
| DagmarX | Zenker: Well, you'll be somewhat relieved to know that it's what passes for "normal" on the internet nowadays. It's just a stupid worm trying a collection of obvious/common login names and passwords | 01:19 |
| sudobash | IdleOne it's added probably there was just nothing to show because he didn't allow it access to the keyring | 01:19 |
| Zenker | i think i need a better modem/router :) | 01:19 |
| philipro | when creating a flash drive installer from unetbootin using the 9.10 alternate installer, should i still choose "Ubuntu 9.10 Live" as my OS? There is no other option regarding ubuntu. | 01:20 |
| spw | dude1, try running sudo update-grub . I haven't played with grub2 much though, so no guarantee. | 01:20 |
| darkblue_B | hi all- our user gorup has made a LiveDVD with XUbuntu as a base.. its working really well.. 9.10 I think.. but one thing.. I cannot ssh in when it is running as a VM. I installed openssh-server, and can ssh out.. the connection closed immediately when I try.. what to do? what to check? | 01:20 |
| sudobash | Zenker yeah you need to make your own router with OpenBSD on it | 01:20 |
| Bob_Dole | I'm using x11vnc to remotely access my Ubuntu 8.04 LTS server, with XFCE and X.Org installed, and I'm wanting to make a new user. when I open the User and Groups thing, It won't allow me to unlock it, despite the fact that I'm the only user besides root on it. | 01:20 |
| DagmarX | Zenker: It's easy (okay, for relative values of "easy") enough to block with iptables and the match module | 01:20 |
| vonadhz | I have ubuntu and recently my computer has been freezing up, does anyone know the problem? it has only started happening since i got ubuntu! and I would like to know how to reinstall ubuntu without deleting my home files because I have them on seperate partitions. | 01:20 |
| IdleOne | sudobash: yeah, I realised after reading that my way was wrong | 01:20 |
| Bob_Dole | How do I force it to unlock? | 01:20 |
| sudobash | with a real processor and upgradeable ram | 01:20 |
| spw | dude1, if that doesn't work, search for more info here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1195275 (section 6 should be most useful) | 01:20 |
| dude1 | spw already tried that, something totally different here but thanks | 01:20 |
| DagmarX | Zenker: What sudobash suggests is insane overkill | 01:20 |
| vonadhz | I have ubuntu and recently my computer has been freezing up, does anyone know the problem? it has only started happening since i got ubuntu! and I would like to know how to reinstall ubuntu without deleting my home files because I have them on seperate partitions. | 01:20 |
| Zenker | dagmarx i wish i knew what u was saying, thats all jibberish 2 me rofl. i only recently found that i can find out what connections/ports are open via netstat | 01:21 |
| darkblue_B | vonadhz: linux tests ram | 01:21 |
| sudobash | no it isn't he wants to know who is trying to get access to his network he can use the Packet Filter with NAT, TCPDump and log the traffic in real time like he wants | 01:21 |
| darkblue_B | I mean.. it is very unforgiving of RAM errors | 01:21 |
| DagmarX | Zenker: Is the gateway machine at your place a Linux box or some router appliance? | 01:21 |
| vonadhz | darkblue_B: I tested ram | 01:22 |
| IdleOne | vonadhz: pop in the cd and when you get to the partitioning part make sure to select the correct partition to install to and DO NOT select the box to format /home partition | 01:22 |
| Zenker | DagmarX its a linksys wireless modem/router | 01:22 |
| Ubuntufan123 | Ubuntu 9.10 and earlier can't detect 42" LCD TV, but works great on 20" LCD monitor, anyone heard of this problem or know how to fix it? | 01:22 |
| DagmarX | If it's an appliance (like Linksys/Netgear) making it just ignore the connections is not so simple. If it's a LInux machine, it becomes really easy | 01:22 |
| vonadhz | idleone: okay | 01:22 |
| === rebel_kid is now known as hacker_kid | ||
| vonadhz | darkblue_B: do you know why it would freeze up? | 01:22 |
| IdleOne | vonadhz: as for the freezing, could be that you are running to many heavy apps at once | 01:23 |
| * Zenker thinks he needs to get up 2 speed on networks, routers, and how this stuff works rofl | 01:23 | |
| DagmarX | Zenker: If you poke around the admin interface you should be able to find something to click that will disable remote adminstration from outside your home network | 01:23 |
| vonadhz | IdleOne: like what? i doubt it | 01:23 |
| IdleOne | vonadhz: Compiz? | 01:23 |
| sudobash | Linksys / Netgear routers run NIX anyways so what you said DagmarX is BS if he has DD-WRT he could do anything he wanted what you should have said is the manufacturer limits the routers capabilited | 01:23 |
| sudobash | capabilities | 01:23 |
| DagmarX | sudobash: They do not necessarily run "NIX". | 01:23 |
| vonadhz | IdleOne: visual effects are turned off | 01:23 |
| IdleOne | vonadhz: how much ram do you have? | 01:24 |
| Zenker | DagmarX charter just helped me do this, good suggestion though, i set it up so only this puter can connect to its setup stuff | 01:24 |
| vonadhz | IdleOne: 2gb | 01:24 |
| DagmarX | ...and if he barely knows anything, the odds that he's installed DD-WRT on his Linksys router rapidly approaches _zero_ | 01:24 |
| Bob_Dole | Most of Linksys's routers run a not-unix RTOS because it uses less RAM than Linux | 01:24 |
| sudobash | majority of them run some form of Tiny Linux kernel | 01:24 |
| IdleOne | vonadhz: beats me, that is more then enough for ubuntu | 01:24 |
| Bob_Dole | A small amount of them run Linux | 01:24 |
| sudobash | depends on chip anyways | 01:24 |
| DagmarX | BobDole++ | 01:24 |
| vonadhz | IdleOne: it makes me sad i like ubuntu | 01:25 |
| DagmarX | The LInksys wireless router I have at home is one of them that's not compatible with DD-WRT or I'd still be using that firmware actually | 01:25 |
| IdleOne | vonadhz: you could try xubuntu or lubuntu | 01:25 |
| Zenker | its connected to a desktop via etherenet, all the other puters are wireless, he was prolly right when he said it was some stupid worm | 01:25 |
| DagmarX | I've been too lazy to finish up deploying the wireless card I stuck in the firewall to gimme a proper third network leg | 01:25 |
| dabid | who owns ubottu? | 01:25 |
| Bob_Dole | I got a new account setup on the machine with the command line..I forgot something, but the person I was making it for got around it, I think. | 01:26 |
| vonadhz | Idleone: do you think is worth reinstalling ubuntu before trying xubuntu | 01:26 |
| IdleOne | vonadhz: worth a shot | 01:26 |
| dabid | i had problems w/ the keyboard | 01:26 |
| DagmarX | Zenker: Over here I finally just blacklisted all of China, Japan, Korea, and Russia, as well as half of Europe. It cut down the number of lines of useless crap in my firewall logs by >85% | 01:26 |
| Tetracomm | Hello. | 01:26 |
| sudobash | Zenker, you need to read a lot to be able to really try to do anything you are trying to do | 01:26 |
| DagmarX | I am *highly* unlikely to ever need to get into my firewall from Hong Kong. ;) | 01:26 |
| Tetracomm | A wonderful message for all Creative ZEN owners: Ubuntu 9.10 automatically mounts your ZEN as a hard drive. :) | 01:26 |
| Tetracomm | I am so pleased. | 01:26 |
| StopSign | for some reason remote desktop viewer does not see my windows 7 box, its enabled in win 7, any sug's | 01:27 |
| dabid | why is @lart gone on this channel? | 01:27 |
| Zenker | sudobash i agree, i have soooo much stuff 2 learn, im trying to go from a mere user that hopes for the best to someone who at least has a little idea of whats going lmao | 01:27 |
| sudobash | StopSign, maybe you need to install a VNC Server on the Windows 7 box | 01:27 |
| StopSign | i will try it,ty | 01:27 |
| DagmarX | Zenker: Before I blocked that, I was getting 50-60 throttle messages per day. Before I implemented throttling of more than two connection attempts per fifteen seconds (a sure sign of the worm) I was seeing 2000-4000 attempts a day | 01:28 |

| erUSUL | dsv: addblock + noscript ? | 01:28 |

| Zenker | holy cow DagmarX | 01:28 |
| philipro | my unetbootin 9.10 alternate installer flash drive is almost finished being built. sudobash, how should i run it? do i still need to check things like noaipc or whatever? | 01:28 |
| sudobash | philipro, try that later on after you see if it loads up or not, did you ever run that ram test from cd? | 01:29 |
| harovali | hi , I need to slow down the usb communication , if that makes sense to someone , to use an older or slower usb driver for the usblp0 device. Is that possible ? How ? Where can I configure the usb bus driver ? | 01:29 |
| philipro | i did run the ram test. it said everything was fine. | 01:29 |
| DagmarX | Zenker: Yeah that's why when I spawned X-Chat and wound up in here and saw you type that one line, I figured I knew what you were seeing. That ssh worm is really common traffic now, and unfortunately honeypotting to capture it didn't really show me any simple way to start shutting them down that didn't involve releasing a counter-worm. :/ | 01:29 |
| harovali | because the printer is printing trash at a full speed | 01:30 |
| darkblue_B | philipro: well, actually he way ram works is that particular seqnces of access can fail while everything else works | 01:30 |
| darkblue_B | .. so a good ram test takes a long long time, with many variations | 01:30 |
| DagmarX | harovali: The ub driver (if it hasn't been put out of it's misery) is slow as molasses. Not sure if that's something you'd want to use tho since it's (IIRC) going to make all your USB stuff slow | 01:30 |
| philipro | oh. well i let it run for about 15 minutes. i got bored after that haha. what do you mean particular sequences of access can fail? | 01:31 |
| DagmarX | harolvali: Any USB printer *should* be able to keep up with what you're sending. It's possible you've just got the wrong printer driver running. | 01:31 |
| harovali | DagmarX: in this case I don't care for general usb slowness | 01:31 |
| DagmarX | philipro: You really wanna just let memtest run overnight | 01:31 |
| philipro | running alternate install on my flash drive now. HOPING these days of frustration are finally ending!! | 01:31 |
| philipro | i see. you think that would be the main problem halting my installation? | 01:32 |
| DagmarX | It's hard to get bored of a test procedure while you're sleeping | 01:32 |
| harovali | DagmarX: how can I put it on control ? | 01:32 |
| phiberoptik | ubuntu does not like kde 4.40 | 01:32 |

| cain22 | hello all | 01:33 |
| denyo | hi | 01:33 |
| harovali | DagmarX: The only thing I have connected to USB is a matrix printer | 01:33 |
| philipro | true, dagmar | 01:33 |
| darkblue_B | hi all- our user gorup has made a LiveDVD with XUbuntu as a base.. its working really well.. 9.10 I think.. but one thing.. I cannot ssh in when it is running as a VM. I installed openssh-server, and can ssh out.. the connection closed immediately when I try.. what to do? what to check? | 01:33 |
| cain22 | anyone used unr on an asus netbook yet? | 01:33 |
| DagmarX | philpro: As to the "sequences" one of the memtest tests is tests of complementary bit patterns, like 1010101 followed by 0101010. Sometimes chips will screw up and tie bits together, sometimes they'll fail when all bits are set to 1, sometimes they'll fail when they're written to repeatedly a few hundred times in a row. Memtest goes through a *lot* of permutations trying to find a way to _force_ ram to fail | 01:33 |
| tomoj | is there a way to manually create a live usb stick from an iso on linux, without usb-creator? | 01:33 |
| DagmarX | tomoj: Yes but it's non-trivial | 01:34 |
| erUSUL | tomoj: unetbootin ? | 01:34 |
| komputes | tomoj: just install directly to a USB stick | 01:34 |
| DagmarX | ...as in a huge pain in the posterior to do it manually. Better to use the usb creater or netbootin like was just suggested | 01:34 |
| cain22 | why wouldn't you want to use usb-creater? | 01:34 |
| tomoj | ah, unetbootin looks good, thanks | 01:34 |
| tomoj | I'm not on ubuntu right now and usb-creator isn't working | 01:35 |
| komputes | tomoj: installing to a USB drive is trivial directly from the installer | 01:35 |
| philipro | i see. so even if the ubuntu memory test says it is "complete", its very unlikely that it ran every possible combination? | 01:35 |
| tomoj | komputes: I can't get to the installer :) | 01:35 |
| tomoj | maybe I could in a VM.. | 01:35 |
| DagmarX | philpro: You're talking about the memory test from the CD, right? That *is* memtest86 afaik unless it's been changed since I last looked at it | 01:35 |
| philipro | yes | 01:36 |
| Myrtti | philipro: memtest should be run several times over, for hours. doing one run will uncover only the most acute errors | 01:36 |
| DagmarX | philpro: Yeah just leave it running overnight while you sleep. | 01:36 |
| komputes | tomoj, you can' download burn and boot the ISO/CD | 01:36 |
| philipro | i see | 01:36 |
| tomoj | komputes: nope, no CD drive | 01:36 |
| komputes | tomoj: ah | 01:36 |
| sudobash | philpro after you try the flash drive you just made and it doesn't work then run the test all night | 01:36 |
| cain22 | borrow a usb cd drive | 01:36 |
| DagmarX | You can at least have faith that it's a _good_ test because when I was doing bench work it rather quickly took over that job from commercial RAM testing tools that ran on a PC | 01:36 |
| sudobash | your problem might not even be ram even though I suggested you test it anyway | 01:37 |
| tomoj | thanks all, unetbootin looks like it will work for me | 01:37 |
| harovali | DagmarX: the printer is not aparently the problem , since I put another printer and the printing mess continued. It has a conversion cable , USB-parallel , which was also tested in another printer and works, but probably at a slower pace there. Since this computer has a new motherboard, I think a faster driver is being used for USB. | 01:38 |
| DagmarX | The only thing I knew of that did a marginally better job was a hardware device that cost _way_ too much and included a few overheat tests that ran RAM in ways it wasn't quite meant to, but it *would* catch borderline modules | 01:38 |
| sudobash | philipro is unetbootin complete yet? | 01:38 |
| philipro | sudobash: yes, im running the unetbootin flash drive. still seeming to havea bit of trouble | 01:38 |
| DagmarX | harovali: OH you're using a parallel port adapter? Ouch. That could very well create a problem yeah | 01:38 |
| ahst | exit | 01:39 |
| ahst | quit | 01:39 |
| harovali | DagmarX: yes, that's why now I need to use a slower usb , but how ? | 01:39 |
| DagmarX | The adapter probably should be signaling back to the PC that it's output buffer is full, but I've never looked into whether or not it _can_ do that, since USB printers are cheap as dirt now | 01:39 |
| Zenker | hi leagris :) | 01:40 |
| philipro | sudobash: it seems as if the installer still thinks its a CD. i try to install and i have a few options. "Load installer components from CD" "choose language" "configure the keyboard" "detect and mount cdrom" "execute a shell" "abort the installation" are just a few. where do i go from here? | 01:40 |
| DagmarX | harovali: Do an lsmod and figure out which driver the parallel port adapter is using and see if there's a kernel option you can maybe pass to it that might allow it to slow down things as needed | 01:41 |
| DagmarX | I don't know of any way to tell the USB bus to go slower, unfortunately. THis might not be a solvable problem | 01:41 |
| aitiba | join #slax | 01:41 |
| DagmarX | philipro, yeah when you dump the ISO to a CD as far as the computer cares, it's got a CD there | 01:42 |
| metbsd | ubuntu doesn't work | 01:42 |
| === blueghost is now known as secondDay | ||
| harovali | DagmarX: i see , thanks | 01:45 |
| DagmarX | Can your print _plain ASCII_ to the printer and have it work? | 01:45 |
| ZykoticK9 | !doesntwork | metbsd | 01:45 |
| ubottu | metbsd: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too. | 01:45 |
| DagmarX | Just about every printer I've ever used handled plain ASCII dumped to it | 01:46 |
| philipro | dagmar: i wasnt using a cd. it was a flash drive. i'm going to try burning the iso to a disc this time | 01:46 |
| DagmarX | philpro: Yes, the primary methods of putting an ISO on a flash drive amount to putting a stub on the drive that boots and then mounts the ISO (or filesystem) | 01:46 |
| Xial | Question: I run Ubuntu without GUI. I'd like to use a bittorrent client on this unit that also has a web interface, so that the other computers can simply queue a torrent and let it do the job. Unfortunately, I'm not sure where to find such a creature. Does it exist? | 01:47 |
| sudo-ninJa | hey | 01:47 |
| philipro | oh, i see. ill try use a physical disc this time | 01:47 |
| ZykoticK9 | Xial, if you have apache running you could try torrentflux it's in the repo | 01:47 |
| DagmarX | You _can_ boot the CD and then mount the thumbdrive and install to it, but there's some differences between the way PCs boot off a USB thumbdrive that make it sometimes complex | 01:47 |
| sudobash | it would have to do with his BIOS | 01:48 |
| philipro | my reasoning behind using the thumbdrive was only to see if the problems were resulting from the disc. after all this frustration it does not seem like it, so i will try to just use a physical cd rom | 01:48 |
| albertolempira | hey guys, i'm having problems trying to install packages (apps and/or upgrades) in kubuntu using kpackagekit, i get this message "The package download failed.Please check your network connectivity." i'm sure its not a network issue since i can install apps and upgrades trough konsole, i've tried unistalling kpackageit even using purge with aptitude, any idea of what can be going on? thanks in advance. | 01:48 |
| Xial | ZykoticK9, thanks for the suggestion; I passed on apache2, because it gives me a huge headache for setting it up. | 01:48 |
| DagmarX | If it's any indication, I've been at this sort of thing for 20+ years and I could be booting my firewall off a thumbdrive, but I still scavenged a laptop drive for the purpose the last time I had to replace the hard disk, just to avoid the extra hassle | 01:49 |
| kop | can not boot from usb drive after running updates on it any ideas ? | 01:49 |
| sudobash | there might be a BIOS update that can fix your issue but you really wouldn't want to update just because of that | 01:49 |
| sudo-ninJa | Question: I have Ubuntu and Windows on my laptop. Its run as a parallel OS. For some reason, upon boot, it is extremely choppy and slow and has a whole lot of problems. | 01:49 |
| sudo-ninJa | But Ubuntu gets up and running, it runs smoothly and without any real issues | 01:50 |
| philipro | honestly, if i cannot get ubuntu to work im not gonna worry about the bios. i guess ill just install windows xp :O :( | 01:50 |
| DagmarX | kop: THe BIOS still knows you want to boot from a USB device, right? | 01:50 |
| philipro | BUT im about to try a cd install first | 01:50 |
| SuperMiguel | is the vnc the fastest way (non lagg) way to remotelly connect to a machine? | 01:50 |
| sudo-ninJa | How can I get it to have a proper login and run normally? Or does it normally have problems as a prallel OS | 01:50 |
| Ziber | SSH would probably be faster. | 01:50 |
| sudobash | VNC is the best solution | 01:50 |
| Ziber | Unless you need graphics for some reason. | 01:51 |
| DagmarX | philipro: Perhaps if you could give us some detail about how exactly the install from CD is failing someone will know a way around it. For sure installing XP and it's 22 reboots is going to be more hassle than fixing the original problem | 01:51 |
| philipro | lmao | 01:51 |
| praveen | It's offering partial upgrade | 01:51 |
| sudo-ninJa | oh oops ***But once Ubuntu gets up and running.... | 01:51 |
| sudo-ninJa | missed the once XD; | 01:51 |
| DagmarX | SuperMiguel: You could always use X's native protocol for that. It predates VNC by a long way but requires you to be using GDM/KDM/XDM on the machine you want to get to, and it won't let you just jump into an existing session unfortunately | 01:52 |
| sudobash | yeah like I said VNC is the best solution for desktop control, SSH isn't desktop control | 01:52 |
| DagmarX | X's protocol involves basically starting a new session on the remote machine when you login to your terminal | 01:52 |
| praveen | Lucid is now offering partial upgrade. Should I upgrade it? | 01:53 |
| DagmarX | If you're wanting to take over an existing GUI session on the remote machine, VNC probably is your best bet at the present time | 01:53 |
| sudobash | xtightvncserver does that also, starts a seperate X session | 01:53 |

| philipro | The error (???) i get is ?do_page_fault+0x0/0x380. its the end of several lines of code before i can even get to the graphical installer. several hundred lines of code are shown over the course of about 3 minutes, then that is the last line to show up, and then the system just doesnt do anything. | 01:53 |
| praveen | Ok thanks. | 01:53 |
| philipro | Also, this error is not just from the CD. it is from the flash drive attempts as well (using two different methods, nevertheless) | 01:54 |
| DagmarX | philipro: So it's probably something in the kernel that's going awry and crashing | 01:54 |
| sudobash | I bet is doing some kind of io error that is what he is saying lines of code.... | 01:54 |
| philipro | not to be a huge noob. but by kernel you mean my install files right? | 01:54 |
| Xial | Call it a dumb hunch, but if you yanked a stick of memory from the machine and tried the install, philipro, does it react any differently? | 01:54 |
| SuperMiguel | DagmarX, i dont care i can start my own session... no need to go back to previos session | 01:55 |
| sudobash | or just replace the ram if you have any around | 01:55 |
| spw | I have samba set up to share folders with windows computers, but for some reason the shared folders stopped appearing in the "network" window in windows 7 and vista. The shares can still be accessed manually, using \\hostname\share, but it's considerably less convenient. Any ideas on how to fix? | 01:55 |
| philipro | i have not tried that yet, you guys really think it is a memory error? | 01:55 |
| sudobash | I think your chipset isn't compatible with linux possibly but I hope it is RAM... | 01:56 |
| philipro | trying the CD alternate install now. method number 4, here we go! :) | 01:56 |
| Xial | I preface my dumb hunches with a statement that it's a dumb hunch. Considering the amount of media you've tried, I don't think it's media. :) | 01:56 |
| DagmarX | I'd agree with you XIal | 01:56 |
| sudobash | no it's not media it's chipset or ram | 01:56 |
| philipro | very true | 01:56 |
| DagmarX | philipro: If memtest86 didn't find anything then it's probably not a RAM problem | 01:56 |
| philipro | thats what i was thinking | 01:57 |
| philipro | but like | 01:57 |
| frosty | do i install ndiswraper from source or from apt-get? | 01:57 |
| frosty | cant seem to find it | 01:57 |
| sudobash | check your chipset for compatibility with linux philipro | 01:57 |
| digitalfiz | hello when i have a opengl program open and im also in gedit if i scroll in gedit it doesnt redraw the area until i click in the area in gedit any way to fix this? | 01:57 |
| philipro | my hardware isnt ANCIENT....its a 2005 machine. i thought ubuntu was super compatible with a lot of things | 01:57 |
| Xial | I'm doubting chipset, since I've got it running on a rather old Winterm, and had it running on a significantly newer (year old) machine. | 01:57 |
| DagmarX | philipro: What's likely happening is some driver is loading that is misdetecting things and throwing a wrench into the works | 01:57 |
| jmuniz | After running the update manager and restarting, my Nvida driver no longer loads. What are the proper steps to figure out whats going on? | 01:57 |
| DagmarX | Figuring out *which* driver is misbehaving is another matter | 01:57 |
| philipro | WHOA WHOA WHOA it got to installing and now its printed a "Corrupted low memory line" about 300 times | 01:58 |
| frosty | get of your game boy advanced philipro :D | 01:58 |
| sudobash | almost everything I install Ubuntu on it works amazing! 1 or 2 machines froze after install or wigged out during install | 01:58 |
| eremite | philipro: I dont know a computer that I cant get linux to run on, and most of them can run Ubuntu if it meets the sys req. | 01:58 |
| Bob_Dole | what variants of dd are available on ubuntu? | 01:58 |
| DagmarX | philipro: Can it boot the LiveCD environment successfully? | 01:58 |
| sudobash | but this is out of 50+ machines | 01:58 |
| Xial | Dumb Hunch is like a shotgun at close range... :) | 01:58 |
| DagmarX | philipro: If it *can't* then that's something to work with at least | 01:58 |
| philipro | by boot livecd environment, you mean can i run ubuntu without installing it? | 01:58 |
| DagmarX | Oh yes | 01:58 |
| sudobash | I've lost count on how many Ubuntu machines I've put out there although I try to be a good admin to the most of them | 01:58 |
| philipro | nope | 01:58 |
| DagmarX | Okay then that probably rules out the hard drive controller driver at least | 01:59 |
| Xial | Bob_Dole, I'm not aware of any variants, but I have honestly never looked. Sorry. | 01:59 |
| beejeebus | just updated from karmic -> lucid | 01:59 |
| sudobash | philipro I know you didn't let that memtest finish now did you? | 01:59 |
| beejeebus | mysql won't start | 01:59 |
| philipro | so basically weve ruled out ram, hard drive controller, chipset, what else could it be? | 01:59 |
| beejeebus | sudo service mysql start | 01:59 |
| DagmarX | philipro: It's _possible_ telling the thing to only attempt to use the VGA video driver will sidestep the problem if it's the video driver going berzerk | 01:59 |
| Bob_Dole | Xial, I think there's one from the DoD that has a status thing, I just can't remember its name | 01:59 |
| beejeebus | start: Unknown job: mysql | 01:59 |
| sudobash | no we didn't rule out chipset cause you didn't check the compatibility list | 02:00 |

| beejeebus | start: Unknown job: mysql | 02:00 |
| philipro | i let it finish. it appeared that it was done and had just restarted. but it said "memory test complete" at the bottom | 02:00 |
| DagmarX | philipro: It loops. | 02:00 |
| philipro | oh | 02:00 |
| philipro | i figured | 02:00 |

| epaphus | eremite, where or how can I force all apps to use PulseAudio?? | 02:03 |

| sharinnegan | thanks eremite | 02:04 |
| DagmarX | philipro: You can pretty much rule out the FX5200 as a problem, since they're very, very supported by now. If you can see *both* the Intel video card and the nVidia one in the output of lspci then you probably should go into your BIOS and disable the integrated video chipset | 02:04 |
| nin-ja | Xial: no i installed through the virtual CD, i did notice one thing though, i only have two partitions for the system, and my swap is only 2.7GB which is half the space as my swap on my desktop | 02:04 |
| philipro | KBIJWQ: t5010. you probably havent heard of it, its a POS emachines from 05. lol | 02:05 |
| DagmarX | Multiple video cards of different types don't always play well together in the same machine | 02:05 |
| sudobash | philipro okay then you need to take out one of the sticks of ram and use the alternate with 256 if you can and swap out each stick to see which one is bad unless you have 1 512 stick | 02:05 |
| KB1JWQ | philipro: Ah, reason I ask is that I just got a t510 working. TOok a lot of magic, but I could have talked you through it. | 02:05 |
| philipro | i believe its one 512 but let me have a look | 02:05 |
| philipro | KBIJWQ: thanks anyway, hahaha. woulda been nice | 02:06 |
| DagmarX | philipro: That actually somewhat works in your favor because even though eMachines are kinda cheap, they long ago started using relatively _common_ parts | 02:06 |
| philipro | dagmarx: then WHY THE HELL WONT IT WORK :( | 02:06 |
| goddard | I have a clear WiMax modem is that compatable with Ubuntu? | 02:07 |
| DagmarX | philipro: Well, if it has an integrated video chipset and that's still enabled, I'd blame that | 02:07 |
| eremite | DagmarX: how did you underline that text? | 02:07 |
| epaphus | hey guys, how can I make it so all my apps use PulseAudio by default instead of ALSA?? | 02:07 |
| heartlesshero | i have a problem where i have sound on movie player, rythmbox box player. but not in firefox on youtube. im running ubuntu on my pc and just put it on last night, can anyone help me? | 02:07 |
| philipro | i will try to disable that after i remove a stick of ram if i have two | 02:07 |
| eremite | epaphus: yes, but ALSA is better most of the time from my understanding. | 02:07 |
| sudobash | it might be the memory controller isn't compatible but it could be the BIOS setting DagmarX is saying | 02:07 |
| DagmarX | eremite: What? I probably just typed _underscores_ at the beginning and end of the word and your client did some fancy magic on it | 02:07 |
| eremite | DagmarX: _yes_ it did magic for me. Nevermind. Carry on. | 02:07 |
| epaphus | eremite, skype runs on PuseAudio and it sounds 300% better then Ekiga using ALSA.. that is why i ask | 02:08 |
| DagmarX | sudobash: I've _never_ seen a memory controller fail based on software. That would break a lot of things if the kernel had to deal with those sorts of issues | 02:08 |

| DagmarX | phlipro: Depending on a few factors, your machine may be using a dual-channel configuration, which means you might _need_ two sticks in there, but if they're 256Mb sticks the odds of that are pretty low | 02:08 |
| DagmarX | With one stick alone, it'll eitther work or not and you'll find out _really_ quickly | 02:09 |

| sudobash | if you don't want to mess with your BIOS settings you could always just take out the 5200 and see if it installs but eventually youll want to disable your integrated video card you want your BIOS to try your PCI card first | 02:09 |
| DagmarX | sudobash: GOod idea | 02:09 |

| DagmarX | CoCo_Kid594, this will probably be an unpopular suggestion but "find some nVidia card and use that". ATI drivers are notorious for being a pain in the butt | 02:11 |
| CoCo_Kid594 | everything else rocks except stuck in this 800x600 it could be worse i guess. | 02:11 |

| philipro | im not sure if it worked. i cant get past this install block about configuring the network. | 02:18 |

| philipro | Lol at the dumb hunch. we shall see -_- | 02:18 |
| sudobash | yeah it prolly worked | 02:19 |

| Xial | Correct me when I'm wrong, but DVI doesn't carry audio, so the chain between DVI to HDMI would be the point of failure, yes? | 02:20 |
| DagmarX | philipro: LIke I said, I've been at this a *long* time | 02:20 |
| DagmarX | Xial: You would be correct | 02:20 |
| sudobash | netboot is the way, openbsd again becomes useful with a tftp server | 02:20 |
| hacked | I have a question: what if you boot from a USB but you don't have internet access and therefore can't get the driver to get internet? | 02:21 |
| sudobash | but really you could do it from anything | 02:21 |
| DagmarX | DVI doesn't do audio, so one would have to convince the machine to not even try to send audio over the HDMI interface and instead use line out | 02:21 |
| Fopp|Newbie | Hi guys. I have a sony ericson k800i, and I want to send some files from it to my laptop (running 9.10) via bluetooth. But, I can't get either device to recognize the other. please help. | 02:21 |
| cbx | I just updated ubuntu and now have 2.1mb left on /boot . Can I delete the older images and initrd's? | 02:21 |
| anderer | I can't re-enable Compiz, after I deleted one Panel. | 02:21 |
| DagmarX | cbx: Yes | 02:21 |
| Xial | hacked, the only time I ever needed to be able to get online for a driver was for some oddball unsupported wlan adapter, but the NIC still worked. In my case, I plugged in a cable. Kept going. | 02:22 |
| sudobash | hacked that sounds like a windows issue | 02:22 |
| philipro | i know im the complete noob here, but i do have a little knowledge about this HDMI stuff. nvidia drivers with hdmi out can configure to output through hdmi with audio either disabled or enabled. if you choose disabled you can output audio from a headphone or lineout jack | 02:22 |
| Xial | ooh. ipv6. | 02:23 |
| DagmarX | hacked: Depends on which thing you need as to what would be the easiest solution. _Generally_ the kernel has all the drivers for everything ready to go in the initrd, but if it's a wireless card that requires a firmware, you may have to manually grab that firmware and copy it into the filesystem through some other means | 02:23 |
| philipro | same problem with the desktop 9.10 boot from flash drive with one stick of memory: " | 02:24 |
| philipro | ? do_page_fault+0x0/0x380 | 02:24 |
| philipro | error_code+0x73/0x80 | 02:24 |
| hacked | well, sudobash / Xial, I'm wondering because on my Dell Latitude I had to plug in and do some fancy command scheme stuff (and I'm a noob) to get the driver installed | 02:24 |
| DagmarX | philipro: So basically the graphical subsystem is just blowing up in your face then? | 02:24 |
| DagmarX | philipro: What does the log show it doing _just above_ that tho | 02:24 |
| DagmarX | Usually the last thing that was loaded is what broke | 02:24 |
| Xial | Mmmm. Latitudes. C, D, E series, XT/XT2, Z600, 2100, or...? | 02:24 |
| cbx | DagmarX, I'll be deleting all files that end in 2.6.28.13 (initrd, vmlinuz, system map, config, vmcoreinfo) . Am I right ? (i'm using 2.6.31.20) right now | 02:25 |
| hacked | I'm thinking if I wanted to actually use a bootable USB on a computer I've never used, would the internet work likely? | 02:25 |
| philipro | i have not even made it to the GUI yet. i get several lines of code and never make it to the graphical interface | 02:25 |
| DagmarX | cbx: SHould be safe. Grub should even clue into the fact that you've removed them and take them out of the boot menu | 02:25 |
| sudobash | philipro what happened to the cd installer you had going? | 02:25 |
| DagmarX | philipro: Okay so that would _really_ be inidicative that the video drivers are failing horribly | 02:25 |
| Xial | hacked, based on the xubuntu flash drive I carry around, I'd wager yes, it should work on most hardware it meets with little trouble. | 02:25 |
| philipro | i could not get past the "configure the network" step | 02:26 |
| philipro | if you could help me bypass it then i might be able to get the cd working | 02:26 |
| philipro | but i figured in the meantime id try the flashdrive again | 02:26 |
| vonnick | Does Jockey pick up drivers for HD 5XXX cards yet? | 02:26 |
| hacked | xial, so in other words most wlan cards don't need silly drivers | 02:26 |
| DagmarX | philipro: can you get a command line of any sort by hook or crook and run lspci? | 02:26 |
| philipro | what does that mean? | 02:26 |
| Xial | Like DagmarX mentioned, the only facepunch could come from some oddball wlan device (BROADCOM ARGH) or wwan device (though I think that's been handled as of 9.04?). | 02:26 |
| DagmarX | philipro: Getting a bash prompt. Usually I just slap in a Slackware CD for that, but I've never tried with the ubuntu CD | 02:26 |
| philipro | im sorry but i have no idea what youre talking about -_- | 02:27 |
| vonnick | ubuntu livecd terminal works just fine | 02:27 |
| DagmarX | philipro: Like I mentioned earlier, the most common failures come from having two different video cards active in the machine at once | 02:27 |
| sudobash | yeah I can help you get past the network wasn't there a place to set Static IP's? | 02:27 |
| DagmarX | philipro: `lspci` lists out all the PCI devices the kernel sees on the PCI bus. If you see two VGA controllers, it'll be time to see if youc an go into the BIOS and turn the integrated video off | 02:28 |
| philipro | there was not a place. it was basically just "continue" or try another step. and trying any other steps just bounced me back to "configure the network" | 02:28 |
| philipro | how do i see this "lcpsci"? | 02:28 |
| DagmarX | philipro: Lie to that step if you want. 192.168.0.1 is a non-internet-routable IP address that is perfectly valid and will make that bit happy and you can go back and put in "real" values or not later | 02:28 |
| DagmarX | philipro: `lspci` is a command line utility you run from a bash prompt | 02:29 |
| philipro | i understand that but it gives me no chance to input anything | 02:29 |
| hacked | thx :) | 02:29 |
| DagmarX | It *might* need to be stated as /sbin/lspci | 02:29 |
| sudobash | yeah you might get a menu at the beginning to drop to a prompt | 02:29 |
| philipro | wait | 02:29 |
| sudobash | it might be called a shell or bash prompt or something | 02:29 |
| DagmarX | philipro: Oh so wait, you have no "plain" ethernet in the machine? | 02:29 |
| philipro | let me get this straight | 02:29 |
| magicjoe | can i get some help with playing flash in firefox 3.5.8? | 02:30 |
| philipro | i cannot access lspci from the bios? | 02:30 |
| philipro | also, no i cannot get ethernet to this pc. its wifi | 02:30 |
| DagmarX | No, lspci and the BIOS have nothing to do with each other | 02:30 |
| DagmarX | Hmm... THat could be an issue with the alternate installer if it requires a network config and you don't have a network device for it to configure | 02:30 |
| eremite | magicjoe: for to the adobe website and install the file they make you donwload. | 02:30 |
| Fopp|Newbie | Hi guys. I have a sony ericson k800i, and I want to send some files from it to my laptop (running 9.10) via bluetooth. But, I can't get either device to recognize the other. please help. | 02:31 |
| magicjoe | oh......sorry im on ppc. is that the problem? | 02:31 |
| eremite | magicjoe: or you can open Synaptic and search for adobe. | 02:31 |
| magicjoe | ill try that room | 02:31 |
| sudobash | can you find a NIC card somewhere in another pc somewhere and pop it in philipro? | 02:31 |
| eremite | magicjoe: this is a a GNU/Linux Ubuntu channel, not a Windos channel. | 02:31 |
| magicjoe | yeah. im on ubuntu karmic | 02:32 |
| philipro | its not that i dont have an ethernet port, i just have nowhere to plug it in around here :( | 02:32 |
| eremite | I cannot help you with your virus named Windows. | 02:32 |
| magicjoe | but power pc | 02:32 |
| sudobash | go away eremite | 02:32 |
| DagmarX | philipro: You said you had an eMachine t5010? | 02:32 |
| philipro | yes | 02:32 |
| sudobash | yay i'm glad someone looked it up! Way to not be lazy DagmarX | 02:33 |
| DagmarX | Oh, okay whether or not you have a cable shouldn't affect whether or not you can _just make up_ an IP address for it to use | 02:33 |
| eremite | sudobash: do you work for Microsoft? | 02:33 |
| DagmarX | sudobash: I'm looking up the specs now and it's apparently got an Intel 915GV in it alright. Digging a bit now to see if there's some way to to force that driver to be less aggressive | 02:33 |
| sudobash | they did offer me a job but I told them I was a huge advocate for Open Source technology and they didn't send me anything back | 02:34 |
| philipro | dagmar, i totally understand what youre saying. i would try 127.0.0.1 or 192.168.0.1 but the installer gives me no room to input an ip anywhere. its all supposed to be configured automatically | 02:34 |
| philipro | i thought i mentioned the chipset? | 02:34 |
| eremite | I would never suggest anyone install viruses such as Windows. | 02:34 |
| DagmarX | philipro: It shouldn't not let you put something in unless you told it to use DHCP for that interface. It *should* be giving you the option to enter a static IP assignment | 02:34 |
| hmw | anderer: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Video | 02:34 |
| DagmarX | I'm rather hoping I can find a way to get you past the GUI blowup issue' | 02:34 |
| philipro | i never even was given the chance to choose dhcp or static | 02:34 |
| anderer | Thanks soo much, hmw | 02:35 |
| DagmarX | philipro: Okay so there might well be some bugs left in the alternate installer then since so few people use it | 02:36 |
| philipro | im stuck here again. "installation step failed. you can try to run the failing item aqgain from the menu, or skip it and choose something else. the failing step is: configure the network" but all i can press is continue. i also try clicking another step and it sends me back to the network step | 02:36 |
| DagmarX | philipro: I hate to ask this again, but did you have a second video card installed in the machine? | 02:36 |
| DagmarX | Intel thinks the 915GV is supported by their driver | 02:36 |
| philipro | by second if you mean other then integrated graphics, then yes i have an fx5200 | 02:36 |
| hexdump | Hi guys I'm having a problem here maybe somebody can't point me in the right direction | 02:37 |
| hexdump | Unable to connect : java.security.AccessControlException : access denied (java.net.SocketPermission irc.freenode.net resolve) | 02:37 |
| === hexdump is now known as hexdump_ | ||
| DagmarX | Okay, so have you tried disabling the onboard video chipset in the BIOS? If you're planning on using the nVidia card for video output you don't need the intel video chip active | 02:37 |
| DagmarX | ...and it's likely where things are going awry | 02:37 |
| DagmarX | The FX5200 should "just work" | 02:38 |
| philipro | well | 02:38 |
| philipro | i set the video adapter to the PCI card which IS the 5200 | 02:38 |
| philipro | but im not sure if that completely disabled the integrated graphics | 02:38 |
| nhak | what is the command for suspend ? | 02:38 |
| philipro | im not sure how to do that exactly | 02:38 |
| DagmarX | philipro: COld boot the machine and smack F1 or DEL repeatedly (depending on if the bootup screen gives you that hint) until you get into BIOS setup | 02:39 |
| sudobash | take out your 5200, make the system 512 again and try the original cd you tried that loaded up the desktop and everything the Live CD | 02:39 |
| DagmarX | Maybe F2 | 02:39 |
| sudobash | it could even be f12 but whatever it is he knows how to get in BIOS | 02:39 |
| philipro | i know how to get to the bios. that is how i set the PCI card to primary. but im not just sure how to disable integrated completely | 02:40 |
| DagmarX | philipro: Don't change anything in the BIOS that doesnt' say something like "Integrated video", but beyond that you shouold be able to wander around in the BIOS menus without breaking anything so long as you change nothing you don't understand | 02:40 |
| DagmarX | philipro: Hmm... The thing should have disabled the integrated chipset if you did that | 02:40 |
| === unionizer is now known as Ubee | ||
| sudobash | yeah it was already set to that he said | 02:40 |
| philipro | i did that before i even came into the channel today :/ | 02:40 |
| DagmarX | philipro: Is that the *only* other card you installed in the machine? | 02:41 |
| sudobash | take out your 5200 make put the ram back to 512 and boot up the Ubuntu Desktop CD not the Alternate | 02:41 |
| brian__ | why don't they have safe graphics mode anymore? | 02:41 |
| DagmarX | Sometimes on a motherboard with AGP or PCI-E slots the PCI slot closest to it uses shared resources and even though you can stick something in both physically, they will *not* work properly like that | 02:41 |
| Ubee | How do I clean out my computer with old files that are on it. I am trying to download the Ubuntu 10.4 beta and am being told that I cannnot do it because of no availabe disc space | 02:41 |
| philipro | it is the only other graphics card in the machine | 02:42 |
| DagmarX | sudobash has a good idea there. IF the integrated video chipset works by itself, that would at least let you get things installed | 02:42 |
| philipro | okay. ill try that | 02:42 |
| sudobash | philipro he is saying is there a card next to the 5200? | 02:42 |
| GoldShadow | when i start download with bittorrent i get full CPU utilisation and my pc work slow | 02:42 |
| philipro | theres a wifi card next to the 5200 | 02:42 |
| DagmarX | GoldSHadow: Torrents are both CPU and network-intensive | 02:42 |
| sudobash | take out the wifi card also | 02:42 |
| philipro | ok | 02:42 |
| sudobash | for now | 02:42 |
| philipro | ok | 02:42 |
| DagmarX | philipro: ...or move the video card to a different PCI slot. If you can't do that then just take the second video card out and see if you can make things go that wya | 02:43 |
| sudobash | DagmarX said the wifi card might be sharing some memory with the video card or something | 02:43 |
| Ubee | Question: | 02:43 |
| DagmarX | I have yet to find an illustration of hte motherboard in that | 02:43 |
| Ubee | Question: | 02:43 |
| DagmarX | sudobash: Usually it's interrupt and addresses | 02:43 |
| cain22 | answer | 02:43 |
| GoldShadow | so what i have to do ?? | 02:43 |
| DagmarX | I felt a right git last month when I started upgrading my MythTV box and I stuck a firewire card in the PCI slot next to the AGP port and then wondered aloud why it didn't work | 02:44 |
| DagmarX | heh | 02:44 |
| cain22 | wifi and linux hardly ever go together... | 02:44 |
| sudobash | GoldShadow are you using Ubuntu? | 02:44 |
| philipro | brb need screwdriver | 02:44 |
| Ubee | Question: How do I remove old files on my computer. My computer says that files are taking up too much space. | 02:44 |
| GoldShadow | yes | 02:44 |
| DagmarX | Ubee: Delete files you no longer need or buy a bigger hard drive | 02:44 |
| cain22 | delete them | 02:44 |
| Fopp|Newbie | Hi guys. I have a sony ericson k800i, and I want to send some files from it to my laptop (running 9.10) via bluetooth. But, I can't get either device to recognize the other. please help. | 02:44 |
| sudobash | GoldShadow are you using Transmission BT? | 02:45 |
| cain22 | how big is your hd? | 02:45 |
| brian__ | question | 02:45 |
| Ubee | How do I delete? | 02:45 |
| sudobash | Goldshadow: sudo apt-get install dulge | 02:45 |
| cain22 | right click, then delete | 02:45 |
| sudobash | use deluge as your bt client and see if that works... | 02:45 |
| DagmarX | Ubee: If you're using the graphical thing, right click and delete, otherwise the command line thing is just `rm filename` | 02:45 |
| GoldShadow | no qbittorrent v2.1.6 | 02:45 |
| DagmarX | Ubee: Anything sitting around in /tmp (and files just LOVE to lurk there) can safely be nuked | 02:46 |
| brian__ | question | 02:46 |
| sudobash | never heard of it but it sounds likd a bt client made with some scripting language, maybe use something else? | 02:46 |
| DagmarX | Ubee: Well, anything that's filename doesn't start with a dot can be safely nuked. | 02:46 |
| Ubee | I believe that my harddrvie is full and want to clean it out so that I can download Ubuntu Beta 10.4 | 02:46 |
| Ubee | How can I clean my Harddrive? | 02:47 |
| DagmarX | Ubee: By deleting old files | 02:47 |
| cain22 | Ubee: how old is your pc? | 02:47 |
| DagmarX | Ubee: From a terminal, type `df -h` and it should tell you something somewhat useful about how much space you have left | 02:47 |
| sille777 | Ubee: Soap and water not recommended! | 02:47 |
| brian__ | whats the difference between Lubuntu and Ubuntu? | 02:48 |
| brian__ | besides Lxde | 02:48 |
| philipro | okay. just removed wifi and 5200. shouldnt i use the original install since i cant get around the network adapter problem? | 02:48 |
| cur1 | screen brightness? how can I brighten my laptop's screen? the keybindings do not work | 02:48 |
| Ubee | I typed df-h and nothing happened!! | 02:48 |
| DagmarX | brian: The "lubuntu" site probably actually teslls | 02:48 |
| DagmarX | philipro: Yes it's worth a try to start the install and just pretend none of the previous problems existed | 02:49 |
| brian__ | They say there the same, but I cant boot beta Ubuntu | 02:49 |
| vicsar | @Brian DagmarX is right but you can also read this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lubuntu | 02:49 |
| DagmarX | Ubee: There needs to be a space between "df" and "-h" | 02:49 |
| brian__ | but I can Lubuntu | 02:49 |
| Chad | how can i check and see which programs are running at startup? | 02:49 |

| brian__ | its all Lucid repositories though | 02:49 |
| hacker_kid | flash is flickering on online flash games, is there anyway to fix this | 02:49 |
| DagmarX | Without the -h it'll tell you the same stuff, but with much longer numbers instead of the "human-friendly" ones | 02:49 |

| sudobash | what did you end up doing philipro? | 02:51 |
| GoldShadow | sudobash : i use qbittorrent v2.1.6 | 02:51 |
| DagmarX | Ubee: In a terminal, cd to /tmp and type `du -sh .` That will tell you how much space is being consumed by /tmp | 02:51 |
| anderer | :) | 02:51 |
| Ubee | what should I do to know what else is on my computer. I believe that I tried installing Ubuntu a number of time and may have left other versions on my computer. | 02:51 |
| cain22 | init.d file tells which programs are on at start up | 02:51 |
| anderer | quit | 02:51 |
| DagmarX | Ubee: It is _generally_ the place where a lot of leftover stuff gets lost track of | 02:51 |
| philipro | i removed the graphics card as well as the wifi card | 02:52 |
| DagmarX | Ubee: Nothing in /tmp should prevent the machine from rebooting if you erase it | 02:52 |
| sudobash | :-) | 02:52 |
| Chad | thank you cain22 | 02:52 |
| philipro | i'd really like to use the graphics card, and im sure it'll work since you guys have used it before | 02:52 |
| philipro | i'll just have to find a way to get my wifi adaptor up and running on ubuntu | 02:52 |
| NinoScript | Sykoknot: Did you install the xubuntu restricted extras? | 02:52 |
| Emanon | also might try clearing the installed package cache since you dont need the debs after they're done installing | 02:52 |

| DagmarX | Bluetooth is still pretty un-simple under Linux. :/ | 03:02 |
| Emanon | generally your pretty safe with logitech devices ive never had one NOT work at least with basic functionality for me | 03:02 |

| underdev | the best way i've found to handle wireless us to find the cheapest belkin or brand "X" on newegg | 03:03 |
| DagmarX | pinoyoragon: I *think* using apt-get purge to remove the PAM stuff (which nukes configuration files) and then reinstalling them will work, but if something goes wrong in the middle of that you *won't* be logging in much again, and you will NEED to avoid having to reauthenticate AT ALL during that process | 03:03 |
| ProjectXSorrow | DadmarX:does putty do a gui or only shell | 03:03 |

| philipro | but yeah the os didnt start now :( | 03:29 |
| running_rabbit07 | lordarko:? | 03:30 |
| DagmarX | The PCI slot next to the PCI-E slot almost certainly shares resources with it so you won't be able to use them both at the same time, BUT two plain PCI cards shoudlnt' pose a problem | 03:30 |
| sudobash | I guess you have to pick between Nvidia or Wifi? | 03:30 |
| DagmarX | Whether or not the first PCI slot shares resources with the built-in video card is up to chance | 03:30 |
| TecnoBrat | Anyone ever seen this? Grey box when you first login http://tinypic.com/r/spccgh/5 | 03:30 |
| philipro | you lost me. youre saying that the pci slot next to the pci express x1 slot will not be functional? how come it worked with xp? | 03:31 |
| philipro | also, i dont use the pci-e slot | 03:31 |
| Poent | anyone able to give me a hand with something non-ubuntu related? More specifically related to Java programming? Or should I try another channel? | 03:31 |
| evanotten | I am not sure who to ask but I had posted earlier that I lost functionality and no longer have firefox installed i get an error in add/remove when trying to remove it; in that I am trying to get the latest version | 03:31 |
| DagmarX | philpro: Generally the PCI express stuff will share _electrical_ resources with the PCI slot next to it, so both won't work at the same time | 03:31 |
| evanotten | can anyone assist me in this, i would be very thankful to anyone that is willing to help | 03:32 |
| philipro | okay. but i dont use pci-e | 03:32 |
| philipro | its unoccupied | 03:32 |
| DagmarX | philpro: I found a second report that the thing has two pci slots and one pci-e x1 slot, tho | 03:32 |
| philipro | that is correct. two pci and one pci-e | 03:32 |
| philipro | (x1) | 03:32 |
| DagmarX | philipro: You might be able to test things out using one device at a time in the second (hopefully non-shared) PCI slot | 03:32 |
| philipro | well | 03:33 |
| sudobash | put vid card on bottom PCI | 03:33 |
| philipro | so far i placed my FX5200 in the pci slot that would theoretically be shared. the other is unoccupied | 03:33 |
| === ce_cinta is now known as ce_niezzzzzzzzzz | ||
| philipro | the 5200 is in the slot next to the pci x1 | 03:33 |
| philipro | pci-e x1* | 03:33 |
| sudobash | put the vid card on the second slot | 03:33 |
| sudobash | bottom slot | 03:33 |
| philipro | it is in the bottom slot | 03:34 |
| philipro | move it up, away from the pci-e x1, then? | 03:34 |
| sudobash | whichever is not next to the pci-e slot | 03:34 |
| sudobash | yes | 03:34 |
| DagmarX | philipro: Finally found a picture... http://i536.photobucket.com/albums/ff327/UserLog2323/Comp/IMG_6098.jpg?t=1269000093 | 03:34 |
| DagmarX | philipro: Based on past experience, it's the *upper* slot in that image that might be dodgy to use at the same time as the integrated video chipset | 03:34 |
| philipro | okay. im just confused. i wonder, why does my pci 5200 have trouble when NOTHING is plugged into the x1? | 03:34 |
| philipro | hmm. DagmarX: i am in the bottom slot. so im SOL then? | 03:35 |
| denis_ | skype vs v4l2 - how to ? | 03:35 |
| philipro | could it be that my new fresh install doesnt have the correct drivers for the 5200? | 03:35 |
| sudobash | try it anyways | 03:35 |
| philipro | ok | 03:35 |
| DagmarX | philipro: Not necessarily, you can always try the other slot | 03:35 |
| DagmarX | philipro: PCI controllers only have so many interrupt lines and often manufacturers will use a cheaper chipset with fewr | 03:35 |
| evanotten | One or more applications depend on firefox-3.0. To remove firefox-3.0 and the dependent applications, use the Synaptic package manager. | 03:36 |
| DagmarX | ...especially if it's like eMachines and they don't really expect anyone to upgrade the hardware much | 03:36 |
| DagmarX | philipro: As to the drivers for the nVidia card, it should do 1024x768 using the VESA driver alone | 03:37 |
| extor | Is there a way to setup the ubuntu installer in /boot with it's kernel and init so it autostarts and then starts a sshd daemon automagically so one can just ssh in and finish the install? | 03:37 |
| sudobash | yeah the card works fine in Ubuntu without the driver | 03:37 |
| philipro | alright | 03:37 |
| philipro | well | 03:37 |
| philipro | i just swapped the spot | 03:37 |
| DagmarX | philipro: Using the actual closed-source nVidia driver (which Ubuntu is smart enough to go fetch on it's own) it should be able to use all the resolutions avgailable to the card+monitor | 03:37 |
| scunizi | !install > extor | 03:38 |
| ubottu | extor, please see my private message | 03:38 |
| philipro | and again it is having trouble booting up | 03:38 |
| philipro | we'll see if it works but im getting the lines of code similar to when i tried to install | 03:38 |
| StopSign | problem,think ive tryed about everything,trying to connect ub 9.10 to win 7 box with remote desktop viewer just get the black screen | 03:38 |
| philipro | "gave up waiting for root device. common problems: -boot args -check rootdelay -check root" | 03:38 |
| DagmarX | philipro: THat would likely indicate either that the nVidia card has actually died, or that there's a conflict between it and the built-in video chipset | 03:38 |
| extor | !automate | 03:38 |
| ubottu | Ways to automate installation of Ubuntu on multiple machines are described at https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/installation-guide/i386/automatic-install.html - See also !cloning | 03:38 |
| philipro | well, it cant be dead if stuff is still displaying through it right? | 03:39 |
| DagmarX | philipro: It *can* be broken and unable to go into "higher" graphics mode | 03:39 |
| FoolishOwl | Is there a way to get an IRC room list on Empathy? | 03:39 |
| ubutom | evanotten, have you tried sudo aptitude remove firefox ? | 03:39 |
| philipro | what do you mean by this | 03:39 |
| evanotten | no i can try that real fast | 03:39 |
| sudobash | anyways you want to you Intel apparently philipro and get the wifi working | 03:39 |
| philipro | run that by me one more time? | 03:40 |
| sudobash | until you test that card out in another PC | 03:40 |
| ubutom | evanotten, or better yet, sudo aptitude reinstall firefox | 03:40 |
| DagmarX | philipro: I mean that the text terminal stuff is accessed by very common, very old mechanisms. VESA is a mechanism for generic graphics display that _most_ video cards support, but it only goes as high as 1024x768 | 03:40 |
| === defy is now known as eut | ||
| Z- | could anyone point me in the right direction for Mitsumi cd rom drivers | 03:40 |
| evanotten | too late ran uninstall | 03:40 |
| philipro | okay. i understand. | 03:40 |
| DagmarX | philipro: Separate/different mechanisms/drivers are needed to make most video cards use a resolution higher than 1024x768 | 03:40 |
| sudobash | take your video card out and use the intel integrated graphics till you get another car and concentrate on getting your wireless card working... | 03:40 |
| ubutom | evanotten, did it work? | 03:41 |
| philipro | will do | 03:41 |
| DagmarX | ...which is where the nVidia driver generally comes into play | 03:41 |
| philipro | i see | 03:41 |
| scunizi | Z-: drivers for cdroms aren't typically the issue. you having a hard time playing a commercial dvd? | 03:41 |
| DagmarX | Just beat on the wireless problem for now | 03:41 |
| evanotten | its writing exendd state information? | 03:41 |
| philipro | well what if i were to set my resolution in ubuntu to 1024x768 | 03:41 |
| philipro | shouldnt it theoretically work then? | 03:41 |
| evanotten | i am new and not sure what is happening now :D | 03:41 |
| DagmarX | philipro: You'd still likely need to forcibly disable the nVIdia driver and make it use only the VESA driver | 03:41 |
| Z- | scunizi the lucid installer says i dont have a typical cd-rom probably a mitsumi and it needs drivers from a removable driver | 03:41 |
| Z- | drive | 03:41 |
| frosty | anyone use audacious? | 03:41 |
| ubutom | evanotten, just wait a little, if it finishes without error you can type sudo aptitude install firefox and it should work again | 03:42 |
| David664 | any one know the name of a program to decompress .rar ? | 03:42 |
| Z- | so i can't even install which i find to be ironic since it is using the very cd rom it says it needs drivers for to load the installer | 03:42 |
| David664 | on ubuntu | 03:42 |
| philipro | alright, ill just abandon the 5200 for a while and work on wifi | 03:42 |
| evanotten | ok does that get me the latest version by chance? | 03:42 |
| DagmarX | David: rar for Linux | 03:42 |
| sudobash | you might as well just use the integrated graphics philipro | 03:42 |
| DagmarX | ...or 7-zip | 03:42 |
| scunizi | Z-: wow.. I've never seen that before.. have you google'd mitsumi ubuntu to see what comes up? | 03:42 |
| ubutom | evanotten, the latest that aptitude knows about | 03:42 |
| David664 | do both rar and 7zip have GUI or are console | 03:42 |
| evanotten | awesome thanks so much | 03:42 |
| ubutom | evanotten, if ypu wanna be sure, put sudo aotitude update before installing forefox again | 03:43 |
| sudobash | test that card out in windows with the Nvidia drivers | 03:43 |
| Z- | scunizi yeah I'm a g00gling but not coming up with the actual drivers.. man pages but no drivers | 03:43 |
| DagmarX | David: 7zip has a GUI although I've never used it under Linux. I just know it has a GUI in Windows | 03:43 |
| evanotten | ok | 03:43 |
| extor | Am I correct in assuming that ubuntu has more funky, diverse ways of installing it that even debian does, minus debootstrap? | 03:43 |
| DagmarX | For Linux I just install rar for Linux | 03:43 |
| ubutom | evanotten, sorry, sudo aptitude update of course :) | 03:43 |
| sudobash | Philipro I wonder if it's gonna wig out on the wifi card being there | 03:43 |
| evanotten | ok doing now | 03:43 |

| DagmarX | Cafe is closing, time to go home and beat ddclient back into working. Later | 03:44 |
| ubutom | evanotten, sudo aptitude update | 03:44 |
| philipro | thanks for your help dagmar | 03:45 |
| scunizi | Z-: once the system is installed you might have to repeat that again. | 03:45 |
| evanotten | ok | 03:45 |
| evanotten | good | 03:45 |
| philipro | sudobash: launched fine with wifi card! | 03:45 |
| running_rabbit07 | Does know which backport kernel to install for wireless that upgrades each time a new kernel comes out for Lucid? | 03:45 |
| sudobash | cool now you just have to the wifi working | 03:46 |
| philipro | exactly | 03:46 |
| ubutom | evanotten, now you should be able to reinstall firefox with sudo aptitude install firefox | 03:46 |
| sudobash | it could be as simple as installing a driver with Hardware Drivers and restart | 03:46 |
| philipro | should i be looking for the drivers through the manufacturer, or through ubuntu? | 03:46 |
| sudobash | or it might even work when you boot up without doing a single thing | 03:46 |

| philipro | i feel dumb | 03:47 |
| sudobash | no you got further than a lot of ppl | 03:47 |
| sudobash | your wifi might still work right off the bat | 03:48 |
| evanotten | i got it back however it is 2.0, this may be a dumb question but is that the latest release i can get for my setup | 03:48 |
| evanotten | on xp i had 3.7 if i remember correctly | 03:48 |
| philipro | it didnt. i tried adding my SSID with wep key, no luck | 03:48 |

| ubutom | spectre03, don't know much about dns problems, but resolv.conf will maybe be interesting | 04:07 |
| === fish is now known as Guest88618 | ||
| x-men | my goal here is to run multiple VMs so I can have a network model with dedicate servers for each functions | 04:08 |
| Poent | So i've been messing around trying to get my wireless running under ubuntu. I actually got it working but after a short bit the computer locks up completely. I was reading online about the issue and having multiple wireless drivers trying to run at the same time seems to be the isses. My problem is that one of the drivers it working, how do i find out which one it is and which one is inactive? | 04:08 |
| ubutom | cat /etc/resolv.conf | 04:08 |
| nunya | spectre03, did you do a dump on the machines having a problem? | 04:08 |
| sudobash | Philipro: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&source=hp&q=ubuntu+TI+ACX+111+54Mbps&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai= | 04:08 |
| x-men | but then I want to be able to migrate those VMs into real hardware when I need/can afford to do so | 04:08 |
| papul | hi. i am looking for a good screenshot tool | 04:08 |
| === Guest88618 is now known as fishzhou | ||
| philipro | alright | 04:09 |
| spectre03 | odd part of that seems to be that it only seems to fail on what I think should be cached responses because it would seem that if I dig for a domain I have never resolved previously I get a response | 04:09 |
| nunya | x-men, Sometimes it works but sometimes it wont. | 04:09 |
| philipro | all these commands are way over my head, but should i be able to just download this driver, put it on a flash, and boot it up? | 04:09 |
| x-men | a little more specific please? | 04:09 |
| papul | hi. i am looking for a good screenshot tool | 04:09 |
| spectre03 | my resolve.conf has changed a few times troubleshooting this. I have used my untangle system as my dns server, my ISP dns, and google name servers, all seemingly with the same results | 04:09 |
| jdcFuimus | 3 | 04:10 |
| x-men | if it doesn't work, is there any way I can ... install the necessary drivers and essentially fix the OS image for it to be able to boot? | 04:10 |
| sudobash | Philipro: Basically what you need to do is get on the internet somehow over ethernet, do: sudo apt-get update and then do: sudo apt-get upgrade | 04:10 |
| nunya | x-men, migrating linux between machines with different hardware is tricky. | 04:10 |
| spectre03 | nunya a dump? not sure I know what type of dump your reffering to? | 04:10 |
| philipro | and, not to be hasty, but that should just download the update needed for the hardware? | 04:10 |
| sudobash | once thats done go to System-> Administration-> Hardware Drivers and see if you can grab the wifi driver real quick and easily | 04:11 |
| frosty | guys im trying to x11 ssh tunnel and load xterm im getting this ERROR - xterm Xt error: Can't open display: localhost:10.0 i know its something simple but im clueless | 04:11 |
| philipro | ok | 04:11 |
| philipro | let me go grab an ethernet cord and ill see if i can share ethernet through my laptop | 04:11 |
| philipro | its unlikely but ill try | 04:11 |
| sudobash | once you go to that hardware drivers app it will download the driver for you if it is available | 04:11 |
| nunya | spectre, I meant a tcpdump on the machine having trouble. Also it was mentioned before to make sure your resolv.conf is correct | 04:11 |
| trinikrono | hey guys | 04:12 |
| sudobash | if not you might have to go the ndiswrapper route but first I would check out that google search I sent you and read about what other people did to get the same TI chipset to work in ubuntu | 04:13 |
| sudobash | I have to pass out, good luck I am sure you will get it, it is totally worth it | 04:13 |
| ubutom2 | nunya, in case of ubuntu it boots on almost anything that is x86 ;) due to the standard kernel I think, changed my whole pc, only the hdd was the same and was able to boot ubuntu with differnet cpu/mainboard/gfx card :) | 04:13 |
| rewati | hi i am not able to play movie dvd on my system please help | 04:13 |
| ZykoticK9 | rewati, http://sites.google.com/site/alucidfs/how-i-do/enable-dvd-video-playback | 04:14 |
| nunya | ubutom2, I had trouble in the past with servers with scsi cards and such. | 04:14 |
| ranjan | rewati, which player are you using | 04:15 |
| rewati | ranjan, movie player | 04:16 |
| sudobash | rewati install vlc or XBMC | 04:16 |
| eval-_ | i just got dropped into initramfs | 04:16 |
| Neezer | I got an error when connecting my ipod to my laptop...it says cannot connect to null null device. anyone have any idea what that means? I'm running 10.04 beta. | 04:16 |
| eval-_ | the /dev/by-uuid/blablabla disappeared | 04:16 |
| nunya | ubutom2, but yes I have had it work fine as well. | 04:16 |
| rewati | sudobash, i have vlc | 04:16 |
| eval-_ | booting with root=/dev/sda1 works fine | 04:16 |
| ZykoticK9 | Neezer, ask in #ubuntu+1 | 04:16 |
| eval-_ | how did an update destroy my /dev ?? | 04:16 |
| sudobash | get XBMC and when it comes up then put the DVD in, it has built in codecs and is really awesome | 04:17 |
| ranjan | rewati, have you installed libdvdread4 | 04:17 |
| rewati | oh sorry every body i had wrong disc | 04:17 |
| philipro_ | sudobash: can't get the ethernet connection working bridged to my laptop. its a longshot, ill keep working, but just for an fyi, will the ethernet automatically connect and be configured if the network is a-ok? | 04:17 |
| ubutom2 | nunya, yeah, in case of different scsi setups and so on it could get tricky, I only have standard ps here :) | 04:17 |
| Neezer | Thanks ZykoticK9 | 04:17 |
| sudobash | you will have to hook up crossover most likely for computer to computer connection | 04:18 |
| rewati | ranjan, yeah i did that when i intalled the system i got it my disc had problem anywas thanx | 04:18 |
| rewati | bye | 04:18 |
| philipro_ | is that a program | 04:18 |
| philipro_ | i have another idea | 04:18 |
| philipro_ | we have a wifi adouseapter that plugs into the computer via ethernet somewhere in the h | 04:18 |
| sudobash | if the lights don't come on when you hook your cable up it's not a crossover ethernet | 04:19 |
| philipro_ | *somewhere in the house | 04:19 |
| eval-_ | why did i just boot into initramfs? how did /dev/by-uuid/<myHDuuid> disappear? how can i get it back? | 04:19 |
| philipro_ | let me find it | 04:19 |
| sudobash | that would probably work | 04:19 |
| kelvl | Hi, is there a way for me to confirm whether SHMConfig is turned on? | 04:19 |
| kelvl | I am running 10.04 beta 1 | 04:19 |
| PsychoticEGG | hey so I downloaded and install virtualbox closed source. Went to run terminal to open it and it says virtualbox not installed. how do I find it in my system? | 04:20 |
| ZykoticK9 | kelvl, ask in #ubuntu+1 | 04:20 |
| philipro | no luck so far.....but its obviously my adapter. is the "Ifupdown (etho)", is that like a profile ? | 04:21 |
| ZykoticK9 | Psychoholic, it's VirtualBox notice the capitalization | 04:21 |
| eval-_ | anyone? i updated exactly 46 days ago. what could have destroyed /dev/by-uuid in that update? | 04:22 |
| nytek_ | eval-_: was it a sucessful update? | 04:23 |
| eval-_ | nytek_: yup | 04:23 |
| nytek_ | eval-_: strange | 04:23 |
| fishzhou | sorry i dont know i never have this problem | 04:23 |
| eval-_ | can i recreate my /dev/ somehow? | 04:24 |
| eval-_ | this is in initrd/initramfs ? | 04:24 |
| philipro | im having trouble getting even ethernet to work sudobash | 04:25 |
| nytek_ | eval-_: eval-_ take a look at this, what do you think? | 04:25 |
| nytek_ | http://ipucu.enderunix.org/view.php?id=652&lang=en | 04:25 |
| eval-_ | uh, dev/null is not my problem | 04:26 |
| eval-_ | yeah if i know the major minor number maybe i can do the same for my HD | 04:26 |
| nytek_ | eval-_: i feel like you could boot a live cd and copy it over the old? | 04:26 |
| sunkoo | how about bt4？ | 04:27 |
| dr3mro | please i read somewhere on the web that ubuntu is slow because it contains something called mono and if it removed it will be fast how i remove that | 04:28 |
| mtprtst | lol | 04:28 |
| === anzenketh_ is now known as tuxmaster | ||
| eval-_ | nytek_: maybe. i'm sure there's a clean way to do this | 04:29 |
| nytek_ | dr3mro: ubuntu is faster than any of my windows machine | 04:29 |
| nytek_ | machines | 04:29 |
| === tuxmaster is now known as anzenketh | ||
| dr3mro | nytek_, is removing that mono thing will make my laptop boot faster | 04:30 |
| dr3mro | ? | 04:30 |
| ubuntunewbie | hi | 04:30 |
| nytek_ | dr3mro: have you tried ubuntu yet? | 04:30 |
| ubuntunewbie | how to use "make" ? | 04:30 |
| dr3mro | nytek_, i use it now | 04:30 |
| nytek_ | dr3mro: and is it slow? | 04:30 |
| dr3mro | nytek_, but xp is faster | 04:30 |
| ubuntunewbie | I tried to install ffmpeg through svn but it show up "Makefile:1: config.mak: No such file or directory | 04:31 |
| ubuntunewbie | libavutil/Makefile:1: libavutil/../config.mak: No such file or directory | 04:31 |
| ubuntunewbie | " | 04:31 |
| dr3mro | nytek_, XP is faster for me | 04:31 |
| ubutom2 | dr3mro, mono is a free implementation of Microsoft's .Net, doesn't have anything to do with fast or slow machines | 04:31 |
| trinikrono | !make ubuntunewbie | 04:31 |
| spectre03 | @nunya well I have no clue if this is an Ubuntu problem, or generic linux for sure, but seems that a linux DNS request gets no response, but a non linux origination gets a response | 04:31 |
| eval-_ | my ubuntu boots much slower than windows 7 | 04:31 |
| nytek_ | dr3mro: try using a different window manager | 04:31 |

| ubottu | Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) | 04:31 |
| trinikrono | ah | 04:32 |
| trinikrono | i got it | 04:32 |
| trinikrono | ubuntunewbie: using make! | 04:32 |
| ZykoticK9 | ubuntulog, typically (no idea if this applies to ffmpeg) you run -- "./configure" then "make" then "sudo make install" -- i'm not sure why you'd be compiling something that's in the repos | 04:32 |
| mizuho | just for fun or educational... | 04:33 |

| ZykoticK9 | ubuntunewbie, if you're trying to encode to MP4 with AAC audio i'd recommend you check out Handbrake | 04:36 |
| ubuntunewbie | hm.. but I am at the last step , and last line of make | 04:38 |
| ubuntunewbie | following the step for an hour , only the last step to finish.Dont feel like giving up :( | 04:39 |

| Clark3934 | Hi, I was just wondering if I could safely upgrade to 10.04 from 9.10 using the alternate .iso simply by mounting it, or do I have to burn the .iso to a CD? | 04:39 |
| ubuntunewbie | since I am new toubuntu | 04:39 |
| FireCrotch | Clark3934: I see no reason why you wouldn't be able to do that. | 04:40 |
| trinikrono | check the version | 04:41 |
| trinikrono | if is the same one that you downloaded | 04:41 |
| trinikrono | because it might not be the same | 04:41 |
| Clark3934 | @Firecrotch: Thanks. I just didn't know if there was some important boot update or something that might break my start if I tried it. I know upgrading that way worked for 9.04 to 9.10. | 04:41 |

| alien5p5g | I just had an issue with upgrading to the lucid beta from karmic. For some reason, right as it was about to install the downloaded updates, the update manager quit and I could not install again, instead it gave me the option of a partial upgrade which I could not complete. So I went back into the update manager and it listed several updates (did not say if it was the ones downloaded from the lucid upgrade) to install. My question is that | 04:44 |

| theigman | hey, how do I change my wireless adapter settings? | 05:22 |
| theigman | Never mind, I was being stupid. | 05:22 |
| almoxarife | omologos: you should be seeing it | 05:22 |
| mortici | omologos, sudo apt-get install sun-java-6 | 05:22 |
| Poent | philipro, check under system>administration>hardware drivers | 05:23 |
| Poent | and let me know if there is a wireless driver there | 05:23 |
| omologos | mortici: package could not be found sun-java-6 | 05:23 |
| ZykoticK9 | omologos, are you using lucid 10.04? | 05:23 |
| danny22 | how do i connect to my ap from the terminal? | 05:23 |
| omologos | nope | 05:24 |
| mortici | omologos, sorry sun-java6-jre | 05:24 |
| omologos | jaunty | 05:24 |
| philipro | Poent: hmm. it says there are "no proprietary drivers in use on this system". BUT, when i run ndiswrapper -l it lists the driver as being installed. | 05:24 |
| almoxarife | omologos: sun-java6-jre | 05:24 |
| almoxarife | yeah, that | 05:24 |
| hardcampa | How did you change session manager in ubuntu | 05:25 |
| mortici | almoxarife, :) | 05:25 |
| omologos | mortici: the package sun-java6-jre is not available, but some other package makes reference to it | 05:25 |
| mortici | omologos, try sun-java6-bin | 05:25 |
| omologos | this is likely because the package is missing, it's obsolete or it's only available from a different source | 05:25 |
| racerd | hey | 05:26 |
| racerd | anyone here run kubuntu? | 05:26 |
| Poent | philipro, i'm not sure then :-/. It sounds like you were having the same issue my laptop had but there was a driver that ubuntu was loading along side the ndis driver that i had to blacklist | 05:26 |
| omologos | mortici: same problem | 05:26 |
| almoxarife | omologos: you did not include all package sources? | 05:26 |
| racerd | err the desktop | 05:26 |
| rocket16 | racerd: I do, | 05:26 |
| ZykoticK9 | racerd, i'm sure many of the people in #kubuntu do | 05:26 |
| mortici | omologos, do you have all package sources enabled? | 05:26 |
| rocket16 | racerd: What is the problem? | 05:26 |
| omologos | almoxarife: how do i do that? | 05:26 |
| mortici | almoxarife, :), omologos try installing ubuntu-restricted | 05:26 |
| racerd | i am looking for the bluetooth pack to install | 05:26 |

| omologos | yes | 05:27 |
| clarinet | mortici: It worked, thanks a lot. | 05:27 |
| racerd | i use bluetooth keyboard and mouse | 05:27 |
| philipro | Poent: hmm. could it be that ndiswrapper did not correctly install the driver, so ubuntu is not finding it? i just....dont understand why installing the drivers made it partially functional (just cant actually connect to the network) but ubuntu does not detect drivers | 05:27 |

| rocket16 | But I don't like to use XBMC, | 05:31 |
| rocket16 | And want a free, stylish gallery for Photos, better than FSpot. Where can I get it? | 05:31 |
| almoxarife | omologos: sorry, karmic/main?? | 05:31 |
| danny22 | how do i bring up my wireless card to my ap from the terminal? | 05:31 |

| omologos | how? | 05:53 |
| mortici | apparle, you gave elevated rights to the port, and gave strict permissions to yourself with chown (chown <username>:<username> /blaaahh) means that instaed of root:lp now its apparle:apparle | 05:54 |
| almoxarife | omologos: you really need to step back and just read a bit up on what you are attempting, the how is spelled out at some web site , think you can try that first? | 05:54 |
| mortici | apparle, no way it could tell you that it won't work | 05:55 |
| mortici | however this is only temporary | 05:55 |
| apparle | mortici: means | 05:55 |

| ^paradox^ | ho* | 06:07 |
| ^paradox^ | how* | 06:07 |
| deena | Hi | 06:07 |
| mortici | apparle, nope neither command is, its a dev device, on reboot the node is recreated through udev and the permissions are reset | 06:07 |
| bullgard | What command determines the current resolution of my virtual console? (It is the frame buffer console vga16fb.) | 06:07 |
| deena | i want to install grub | 06:07 |
| deena | what is the steps to do? | 06:07 |
| mortici | apparle, i don't see how the execute would help seeing as sudo (root) has only rw permissions by default | 06:07 |
| mortici | apparle, i think its a group issue | 06:08 |
| abhi_nav | deena: grub2? | 06:08 |
| deena | yes | 06:08 |
| mortici | apparle, avast, it is 1 am and i haven't slept i must depart, good luck and i hope you find the answer! | 06:08 |

| abhi_nav | !grub2 | deena | 06:08 |
| ubottu | deena: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 06:08 |
| deena | fedora grub is not loading my ubuntu properly | 06:08 |
| ^paradox^ | just a quick question. is there a way to get terminal to tell me the bitrate of an mp3 | 06:08 |
| abhi_nav | deena: ubuntu community documentation has very clear step by step guide on how to install grub2 | 06:09 |
| deena | let me check | 06:09 |
| abhi_nav | hmm | 06:09 |
| rocket16 | ^paradox^: You can play the file in terminal using mPlayer for that | 06:09 |
| ^paradox^ | rocket16: is there a way to get mplayer to tell me? | 06:10 |
| ^paradox^ | rocket16: i went through its menus and couldnt find it | 06:10 |
| rocket16 | ^paradox^: When the file will play, its bitrate will be automatically shown. | 06:10 |
| Crash2108 | So I wiggle my mouse to look at my desktop, and I notice about 500 "Save Screenshot" windows open. How do I close them all? | 06:10 |
| === pragma_ is now known as fooprag | ||
| rocket16 | ^paradox^: Menus? Where can you find mplayer menus in terminal? | 06:11 |
| abhi_nav | Crash2108 kill <process id> | 06:11 |
| ^paradox^ | rocket16: i meant when i right clicked | 06:11 |
| rocket16 | ^paradox^: Are you from Simpsonville, South Carolina, USA? | 06:12 |
| === fooprag is now known as pragma_ | ||
| jab_butt | hi rom | 06:12 |
| ^paradox^ | rocket16: im in simpsonville. im from greenville | 06:12 |
| jab_butt | whats the update for 10.4 >? | 06:12 |
| Crash2108 | Abhi_nav, but aren't they all different processes? | 06:12 |
| ZykoticK9 | ^paradox^, if you install the program mp3info you can use "mp3info -x filename" and it will show the bitrate | 06:12 |
| abhi_nav | Crash2108 ammmmmmm..........dont know | 06:13 |
| rocket16 | ^paradox^: Great place. By the way, what is the problem after you right click? | 06:13 |
| Crash2108 | Quit stealing my name. | 06:13 |
| ^paradox^ | rocket16: i just cant seem to find its bitrate in any of those menus | 06:13 |
| rocket16 | ^paradox^: No need to click, just open terminal, then use "cd" to change directory, and use mplayer file.mp3 to play | 06:13 |
| === Crash|hd is now known as Crash1hd | ||
| Crash1hd | anyone here use x11vnc? I am having issues with it and keyboard connection? I have to hit the key and hold it down (A bell sound dings and then it works) very annoying | 06:14 |
| abhi_nav | Crash2108 I think they all have same id because I just opend two instances of ff and the are shown as one with one id in system monitor | 06:14 |
| Crash1hd | alright never mind some how slowkeys where turned on | 06:15 |
| rocket16 | ^paradox^: I got a solution! Use MediaInfo | 06:16 |
| abhi_nav | Crash2108 yah it is conformed they all have same id so use kill <id> | 06:16 |
| rocket16 | ^paradox^: You can try http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/en/ScreenShots/GUI_Main | 06:17 |
| abhi_nav | ? | 06:18 |
| abhi_nav | Crash2108 you there? | 06:18 |
| ^paradox^ | rocket16: first whats the command to play the file with mplayer through terminal? im not great with the terminal | 06:19 |
| microlith | doh | 06:19 |
| yrc | 有没有中国人？ | 06:19 |
| microlith | ubuntu 10.01 b1 doesn't like virtualbox's graphics driver :( | 06:19 |
| abhi_nav | hmm now I know zh right? | 06:19 |
| ZykoticK9 | abhi_nav, try "killall gnome-screenshot" | 06:19 |
| abhi_nav | !zh | yrc | 06:19 |
| ubottu | yrc: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk | 06:19 |
| Crash1hd | abhi_nav: lol I am but thats not me lol :) sorry couldnt resist | 06:19 |
| ZykoticK9 | microlith, join #ubuntu+1 and i'll give some input | 06:20 |
| abhi_nav | ZykoticK9 thanks but its Crash2108's problem. and i am tryeing to tell him . Bu i think he is busy......... :-( | 06:20 |
| ZykoticK9 | abhi_nav, oh sorry man | 06:20 |
| rocket16 | ^paradox^: That is "mplayer file.mp3", but file should not have any spaces in their names. And that is not working, I triend that already. The best thing is to use MediaInfo, that you can get from http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/en/ScreenShots/GUI_Main | 06:20 |
| abhi_nav | ZykoticK9: ohh :D | 06:20 |
| abhi_nav | crash1hd: ahh ? what? | 06:21 |
| ZykoticK9 | Crash2108, try "killall gnome-screenshot" | 06:21 |
| Crash1hd | abhi_nav: nothing just playing off the name | 06:21 |
| abhi_nav | crash1hd: hmm | 06:21 |
| Crash1hd | I dont see it used very often elsewhere | 06:21 |
| ^paradox^ | rocket16: brb | 06:22 |
| rocket16 | Ah! Zykotick9! Are you from Ottawa, Canada? | 06:22 |
| syrius | why no more gimp in ubuntu for default? | 06:22 |
| matu | hi... can you install tegaki ? | 06:22 |
| ZykoticK9 | rocket16, yes, but that's OT | 06:22 |
| syrius | I heard that ububntu it putting video editor in because windows has one by default | 06:22 |
| syrius | sooo windows has paint by default | 06:22 |
| bullgard | What command determines the current resolution of my virtual console? (It is the frame buffer console vga16fb.) | 06:22 |
| syrius | why not gimp | 06:22 |
| abhi_nav | !gimp | 06:23 |
| ubottu | gimp is an advanced image manipulation application for Ubuntu. See http://www.gimp.org for tutorials and more information. | 06:23 |
| rocket16 | Zykotick9: Thanks, | 06:23 |
| abhi_nav | gimp is default | 06:23 |
| wolter | not anymore | 06:23 |
| wolter | its not in lucid | 06:23 |
| syrius | the new release I read online that gimp is not going to be in the default anymore | 06:23 |
| syrius | why not? | 06:23 |
| wolter | bad idea i think | 06:23 |
| syrius | windows has a photo editor by default | 06:23 |
| soundaxis | they feel it takes up too much space on the live cd | 06:23 |
| abhi_nav | then what is there in place of gimp? | 06:23 |
| syrius | paint | 06:23 |
| abhi_nav | ohh but i wll install gimp again | 06:24 |
| rocket16 | Me too. But Klourpaint and GNUPaint are nice alternatives for PAint | 06:24 |
| abhi_nav | hmm | 06:24 |
| rocket16 | But GIMP is better | 06:24 |
| Crash1hd | How can I check if my ubuntu has updates? like core updates | 06:24 |
| soundaxis | the reasons listed for gimp being removed are | 06:25 |
| rocket16 | Crash1hd: Go to System->Administration->Update Manager | 06:25 |
| soundaxis | * The general end-user hardly uses GIMP, it is more of a professional software. | 06:25 |
| Crash1hd | rocket16: thanks :) | 06:25 |
| soundaxis | * The GIMP UI is complex and has many options, settings and editing capabilities. | 06:25 |
| soundaxis | * It takes up a huge amount of disk space. | 06:25 |
| soundaxis | * Windows does not bundle a Photoshop like software with itself, a basic image editing software should suffice. | 06:25 |
| soundaxis | * F-Spot photo viewer is good enough for basic photo editing. | 06:25 |
| FloodBot2 | soundaxis: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 06:25 |
| syrius | I read a blog that said that windows doesn't come with photoshop by default so why should ubuntu come with gimp then it goes on and says it needs a video editor by default cause windows has one haha hypocritical windows has paint by default | 06:25 |
| wolter | syrius, linux/ubuntu is not windows | 06:25 |
| syrius | yes I know that | 06:25 |
| rrix | I just lost the game, everyone! | 06:25 |
| syrius | but in the blog it said that | 06:25 |
| syrius | it is GNU/LINUX | 06:25 |
| syrius | not LINUX | 06:25 |
| wombatman | I think a simpler paint program is needed | 06:25 |
| wolter | Crash1hd, just start update manager... if you want other updates (such as alpha versions, try update-manager -d) | 06:25 |
| ZykoticK9 | syrius, Lucid is coming with a default video editor | 06:25 |
| rocket16 | Syrius, Ubuntu is the best OS | 06:25 |
| Crash1hd | rocket16: hmm I dont see an Update Manager I see USB Startup Disk Creator and Users and Groups but no update manager | 06:25 |
| abhi_nav | how can a windows come with photoshop defualt? adobe is propratry | 06:26 |
| disappearedng_ | is there anyway to check whether my iptables are correct? | 06:26 |
| jenia | hello everyone | 06:26 |
| syrius | windows comes with paint by default | 06:26 |
| rocket16 | Crach1hd: Which version of Ubuntu are you using? | 06:26 |
| syrius | why not ubuntu with gimp | 06:26 |
| hexdump_ | rocket16: depends on what your using your os for | 06:26 |
| wombatman | i mean the paint options for simple paint program all lack something | 06:26 |
| jenia | how can i add a php file to lamp? | 06:26 |
| wombatman | i love gimp | 06:26 |
| rocket16 | hexdump_: I agree to your point | 06:26 |
| wolter | syrius, you already said that, its becoming spam already | 06:26 |
| Crash1hd | rocket16: how do I check that? | 06:26 |
| abhi_nav | !lamp | jenia | 06:26 |
| ubottu | jenia: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 06:26 |
| wolter | just install gimp | 06:26 |
| wombatman | but sometimes i really don't need all that | 06:26 |
| rocket16 | wombatman: Then marry GIMP (Just a joke, :) ) | 06:27 |
| hexdump_ | rocket16: I doubt if your testing network security ubuntu beats backtrack4 | 06:27 |
| === jay is now known as Guest48318 | ||
| === _Zonric_ is now known as Zonric | ||
| jenia | thanks | 06:27 |
| hexdump_ | rocket16: ubuntu is great though I think | 06:27 |
| wombatman | i also love ubuntu | 06:27 |
| wombatman | heh | 06:27 |
| syrius | this is retarded you are installing the video editor by default for the same reasons that gimp should be install because windows has one similar by default | 06:27 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Ok so far I have ruled out that its not memory corruption of my machine, different USB cable still has the issue. Im thinking I may try another Ubuntu release than jaunty, like hardy or something and see if the issue exists in other releases. Then I would begin to think that its either a firmware issue or driver issue. | 06:27 |
| hexdump_ | rocket16: I just fixed a computer that somebody gave my buddy and I put ubuntu and windows 7 on there to give him an option. | 06:27 |
| rocket16 | Crach1hd: You can check that in System-> Aout Uuntu | 06:27 |
| syrius | two similar | 06:28 |
| syrius | there that is my important | 06:28 |
| syrius | input*** | 06:28 |
| hexdump_ | rocket16: he is starting to like linux a bit more. I told him you can't really get viruses on linux with maybe one exception maybe 2 | 06:28 |
| Crash1hd | rocket16: ahh it says Ubuntu 9.04 the Jaunty Jackalope | 06:28 |
| syrius | perhaps that blog isn't that accurate or it what another one | 06:29 |
| rocket16 | hexdump_: A laptop only had 512 MB Ram, which ran XP. It was a mess then, everyday getting infected, and infected softwares. But now the same Laptop is a Productivity centre for all | 06:29 |
| syrius | that said pidgin doesn't have video support | 06:29 |
| rocket16 | hexdump_: Because it now uses Ubuntu | 06:30 |
| syrius | when it seems to | 06:30 |
| syrius | why would it have an option for it if it didn't support video chat | 06:30 |
| wombatman | it doesn't support in all protocols | 06:30 |
| syrius | well I have vista on my machine and I have had it for a year | 06:30 |
| syrius | never gotten a virus yet | 06:31 |
| hexdump_ | rocket16: yup he is starting to really like ubuntu. runs much smoother on his computer thought I have to give windows some credit. windows 7 was a homerun I think. | 06:31 |
| rocket16 | syrius: VISTA!!!!!!! I is itself a VIRUS! | 06:31 |
| syrius | gotten several false positives though | 06:31 |
| wombatman | how much ram syrius? | 06:31 |
| syrius | 2gb | 06:31 |
| hexdump_ | lol VISTA | 06:31 |
| wombatman | yea | 06:31 |
| wombatman | that's the min | 06:31 |
| wombatman | heh | 06:31 |
| wombatman | i have 4 | 06:31 |
| hexdump_ | Vista is a mess. | 06:31 |
| syrius | yes it is | 06:31 |
| hexdump_ | vista is just a hot steaming mess. | 06:32 |
| rocket16 | hexdump_: Great incident! I am happy you installed Ubuntu and had shown your friend the right path, :) | 06:32 |
| wombatman | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B7b0uAgXOWc | 06:32 |
| hexdump_ | windows 3.1 was better than vista | 06:32 |
| Crash1hd | rocket16: hmm ok never mind it seems that update manager was not installed checked in the Synaptic Package Manager :) | 06:32 |
| rocket16 | VISTA is a foul OS, | 06:32 |
| syrius | well it certainly holds up to not get infected | 06:32 |
| hexdump_ | rocket16: yeah I believe that all computers should be shipped with options not just windows only. | 06:32 |
| rocket16 | Crash1hd: It does not need to te installed | 06:32 |
| syrius | so that is good enough for me | 06:32 |
| syrius | I just make sure it is all up to date | 06:32 |
| wombatman | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1fjRrBLefNg | 06:33 |
| syrius | I rarely use AVs | 06:33 |
| flixil | Can somebody recomend me a good handwritting hanzi input software for linux? Tried tegaki and tomoe and not convinced. | 06:33 |
| Crash1hd | rocket16: well hmm odd I hit install so I guess will see what happens | 06:33 |
| syrius | I just make sure it is update to date | 06:33 |
| hexdump_ | rocket16: my father is in his 50's and he still fights me on upgrading to windows 7 | 06:33 |
| syrius | have firewall strong password(s) | 06:33 |
| rocket16 | Crask1hd: Ok, try that | 06:33 |
| syrius | that is about all you need | 06:33 |
| rocket16 | syrius: And let Viruses use Privilege Escalation | 06:33 |
| Crash1hd | rocket16: hmm I must have somehow uninstalled it at somepoint that fixed it :) thanks | 06:34 |
| hexdump_ | rocket16: my parents also use vista, came with the laptop. my mother is like yeah I need to get your father away for a weekend so you can upgrade my computer. heh heh | 06:34 |
| syrius | I use clamwin and windows defender sometimes | 06:34 |
| syrius | they always get false positives | 06:34 |
| rocket16 | hexdump_: Lol, :) | 06:34 |
| syrius | like port scanners | 06:34 |
| hexdump_ | syrius: just get norton for a windows product I think it's the best | 06:34 |
| syrius | no way | 06:34 |
| nin-ja | way! | 06:34 |
| syrius | screw anti virus software | 06:34 |
| hexdump_ | syrius: you don't thinks so? | 06:34 |
| syrius | no I don't use it | 06:35 |
| rocket16 | syrius: See, you can secure Windows to some extent, but your Firewall and AV consume System resources, byt halving it already | 06:35 |
| hexdump_ | syrius: you won't be saying screw it when all yer stuph is gone | 06:35 |
| syrius | AV is for people that don't know how to keep their system secured | 06:35 |

| bullgard | What command determines the current resolution of my virtual console? (It is the frame buffer console vga16fb.) | 06:35 |
| hexdump_ | rocket16: wonder if there is a like windows shell based firewall. I'm not even sure if windows still uses DOS. | 06:35 |
| hexdump_ | you don't even need a firewall with linux do you? can't you just use iptables or something? | 06:36 |
| rocket16 | hexdump_: Actually, it uses Powershell now, a replacement of DOS, | 06:36 |
| syrius | well a while ago I was afraid that a virus penetrated my system but then it turned out that imgburn sneaky installed some desktop icons in its shortcut section | 06:36 |
| rocket16 | Hexdump_: Our UFWis protecting us all the time | 06:36 |
| syrius | I was afraid a little | 06:36 |
| hexdump_ | rocket16: yeah I use ufw, and downloaded gufw | 06:36 |
| syrius | but good thing I figured it out | 06:36 |
| rocket16 | Hexdumo_: Nce, I use Firestarter though | 06:37 |
| syrius | then I just uninstalled it reinstalled without the option | 06:37 |
| syrius | all was good again | 06:37 |
| hexdump_ | rocket16: yeah, but can't u just use iptables though manually block things? | 06:37 |
| Cosmos42 | High folks, gotta noob issue here that i can't seem to resolve | 06:37 |
| syrius | hexdump_, you should setup firewalls | 06:37 |
| hexdump_ | rocket16: yeah all that stuff comes with backtrack | 06:37 |
| rocket16 | hexdump_: I can, but that requires more configuration | 06:37 |

| LinuxGuy2009 | I have a launchpad account but I'm not sure where to go in it to report this printing issue. | 06:46 |
| theadmin | racerd: Really, launchpad is not a mess. Let me link you to bug reporting system directly. | 06:46 |
| abhi_nav | recard: try in google | 06:46 |
| barata | anybody uses ALIENWARE m11x in here? | 06:46 |
| barata | or just any alienware | 06:46 |
| ZykoticK9 | LinuxGuy2009, do you want to file against cups? or some other package? | 06:46 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | ZykoticK9: Oh duh it helps if I click the "bugs" tab. Thanks i got it. | 06:47 |
| ZykoticK9 | LinuxGuy2009, don't report bugs on Launchpad directly! there is a MUCH better way. | 06:47 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | ZykoticK9: I'm all ears. | 06:47 |
| Losha | bullgard: /boot/grub/grub.cfg has replaced menu.lst, but unlike menu.lst, you aren't supposed to edit it directly, you're supposed to edit the scripts in /etc/grub.d | 06:47 |
| theadmin | racerd: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug?no-redirect | 06:48 |
| ||arifaX | Losha: this uses vnc protocol. I don't want to use vnc I want to use real X. I need to show an HP-UX machine on an X here but want to do it windowed | 06:48 |
| ZykoticK9 | LinuxGuy2009, i need to know what package you're having problems with | 06:48 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | ZykoticK9: I have no clue what package. I have no clue what the problem is but if your willing to help I could explain and maybe you might know the problem? | 06:48 |
| bullgard | ZykoticK9, Losha Thank you very much for your help. | 06:49 |
| ZykoticK9 | LinuxGuy2009, explain your issue then :) | 06:49 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Let me scan and upload a printout so i can show you. 1 min. | 06:49 |
| ||arifaX | Losha: found xvfb package maybe that's wat I need? | 06:50 |
| Losha | ||arifaX: the vnc protocol is just between the viewer and the server so you can see the X11 display. It's still regular X clients talking to the vnc X11 server using good old X11 protocol.... | 06:50 |
| ZykoticK9 | LinuxGuy2009, that's probably not required - I just need to hear what you're having problem with - not specifically what the problem is... | 06:50 |
| Viking667 | Hi all. What would be causing a Ubuntu to not boot up past a certain stage of the startup sequence? | 06:51 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | ZykoticK9: Corrupted prints followed by blank page after blank page. | 06:51 |
| racerd | .... | 06:51 |
| ZykoticK9 | LinuxGuy2009, what program are you printing from? | 06:51 |
| Viking667 | It gets as far as checking that the root filesystem is "clean", and presumably it's then supposed to mount it. Except it doesn't. | 06:51 |
| racerd | query took too long | 06:51 |
| racerd | blah blah | 06:51 |
| racerd | i'm going to sleep | 06:51 |
| abhi_nav | good night | 06:51 |
| Viking667 | It jams up, and stops reading from the drive, without giving any error messages except for "Failure: unable to find a suitable fs in /proc/mounts, is it mounted?" | 06:52 |
| Viking667 | I'm trying to use a 2.6.30 kernel with my ubuntu 9.10 | 06:52 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | ZykoticK9: gimp, openoffice, eye of gnome, those all do it so far. | 06:52 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | ZykoticK9: But not consistantly. | 06:53 |
| wombatman | is your printer supported | 06:53 |
| wombatman | or are you having to use something else | 06:53 |
| ZykoticK9 | LinuxGuy2009, what printer are you using? did you have to install any drivers for it to work (especially anything from the ubuntu repo?) | 06:53 |
| wombatman | to fake it | 06:53 |
| Viking667 | Another error is: udevd[413]: can not read '/etc/udev/rules.d/libmtp.rules' | 06:53 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | ZykoticK9: Its a Brother MFC-7840W and I installed the LPR and CUPS wrapper. Also tried pointing to the PPD file. | 06:54 |
| === batrick_ is now known as batrick | ||
| LinuxGuy2009 | ZykoticK9: Drivers from the Brother Linux support page. | 06:54 |
| === zz_Darky is now known as Darky | ||
| LinuxGuy2009 | ZykoticK9: Works fine in 8.04.4 I just tested on live CD session with drivers installed before hand. | 06:55 |
| ZykoticK9 | LinuxGuy2009, lets just play it safe and report against cups then. in a terminal run "ubuntu-bug cups" then follow the onscreen/web prompts to report your bug. This is a better method then using the web site as it uploads required info into the bug so it can be sorted properly. | 06:55 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | ZykoticK9: Ok great Ill do that right now | 06:56 |

| AbortD | is there html editors for ubuntu? | 06:57 |

| ZykoticK9 | wombatman, sorry guess i should have not sent that privately -- FYI if you want to find something out from the bot you can use "/msg ubottu !html" and it will just show you :) | 07:00 |
| coz_ | AbortD, i think bluefish is one | 07:00 |
| wombatman | thanks | 07:00 |
| AbortD | coz a nice updated one? | 07:00 |

| abhi_nav | :-( | 07:01 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | ZykoticK9: Well i did it your way and it just collected a boat load of info I saw my printer mentioned in there too. So I guess i dont need to follow it up? | 07:02 |
| AbortD | :P | 07:02 |

| coz_ | AbortD, although quanta is for KDE not gnome | 07:03 |
| ZykoticK9 | LinuxGuy2009, didn't it open your web browser? | 07:03 |
| abhi_nav | coz_ but we can install quanta here in gnome I use it here in gnome its very useful | 07:04 |
| almoxarife | damie: just happened ? | 07:04 |
| coz_ | abhi_nav, but didnt you also have to install all of the kde libs? | 07:04 |
| AbortD | yeah i might go with kde it seems to have nice tools | 07:04 |

| almoxarife | damie: you had sound before? | 07:05 |
| Crash1hd | I guess its better then them going down during a deadline lol | 07:05 |
| ZykoticK9 | LinuxGuy2009, you should probably try again then! | 07:05 |
| abhi_nav | coz_ you have any kde apps run here on gnome without any performance loss | 07:05 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | ZykoticK9: ok | 07:05 |
| damie | when boots up I get start up sound and then no sound after | 07:05 |
| AbortD | i hate kde libs | 07:05 |
| AbortD | in gnome | 07:05 |

| DarkSector | darolu: you probably would be knowing than me, but just a piece of advice don't do lamp-server^ | 07:21 |
| abhi_nav | DarkSector: why? | 07:21 |
| DarkSector | darolu: *knowing more than me | 07:21 |
| almoxarife | damie: can you install alsamixer? | 07:22 |
| DarkSector | abhi_nav: better to do an individual install | 07:22 |
| nmvictor | which package provide pccardctl, the command? | 07:22 |

| * meowbuntu is off to test his multiboot usb he just created | 07:22 | |
| darolu | DarkSector, I install manually too (I also prefer to know what I'm installing and what not), but I don't see why the lam-server thing would fail | 07:23 |
| DarkSector | abhi_nav: last time I did, I had some problem with it.. don't remember exactly what, also i talked to the guys on the channel, they advised against it | 07:23 |

| apparle | Is there any standard list of hardware quirks etc | 07:37 |
| abhi_nav | hebz0rl add manually a ppa for that package | 07:37 |
| lexr | hebz0rl, I do not think so. | 07:37 |
| hebz0rl | lexr, i remember seeing such an option somewhere but i forgot where :/ | 07:38 |
| lexr | it could have only been synaptic :) | 07:38 |
| hebz0rl | hmh | 07:39 |
| lexr | I think, only way to update a package installed manually is to dl a new version and install manually. I am not 100% sure, tho | 07:39 |
| hebz0rl | the problem is that i just want to clean my sources.lst so i deleted all non ubuntu repositories but now i dont know which repositories i really need to keep my software uptodate (i have a lot of software which is not in the ubuntu repo) | 07:41 |
| lexr | anyone have any idea regarding my screen going blank after a while? i have nvidia 9600 card, I checked ubuntu settings, xorg.conf, gconf, nv control panel, nowhere do I have a screen set up to go blank, and yet i does! | 07:41 |

| LinuxGuy2009 | Are all the questions and bug reports for different apps on launchpad.net made by only Ubuntu users? Meaning that if someone asked a question about aptoncd there, then I can be sure that it was installed in Ubuntu and not Debian or Mint or something else? | 07:56 |
| theadmin | LinuxGuy2009: No, everyone uses Launchpad, not only Ubuntu people | 07:57 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Ah I see | 07:57 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | thanks | 07:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | LinuxGuy2009, LP is broken down into distros though, so if you're in the Ubuntu section (it "should" only be Ubuntu related) | 07:58 |
| theadmin | I know even some Windows software hosted on LP :/ | 07:59 |
| darolu | windows native or just ports? | 08:00 |
| theadmin | darolu: Native. There is some registry cleaner. | 08:00 |

| darolu | theadmin, haha well if it helps people is OK I guess | 08:02 |
| theadmin | A friend of mine also writes some thing to host on LP... even though he does it on Windows, it's in PHP so shouldn't matter. Heh, whatever, let's cut the offtopic | 08:02 |

| aj_ | hi. what's the channel to ask about games in ubuntu? | 08:29 |
| coz_ | aj_, probaby here and #ubuntu-offtopic or maybe even ##linux | 08:29 |
| syrius | you should support and get hardware from manufactures that are open source community friendly | 08:29 |
| apparle | coz_: no..... I had to go through a lot of trouble getting my hardware to work, so I was wondering whether there is such a list | 08:30 |

| coz_ | apparle, most dell system hardwa | 08:30 |
| coz_ | will work | 08:30 |
| ZykoticK9 | aj_, http://sites.google.com/site/alucidfs/gaming/doom-1-2 | 08:30 |
| coz_ | apparle, it depends on the type of hardware..its model number and manufacturer | 08:31 |
| coz_ | apparle, most modern hardware should work..not all ..but most | 08:31 |
| mickster04 | what time is it for you all? | 08:31 |

| Lazy^ | Hello, I'm running Karmic 9.10. When i'm trying to boot to win 7 from grub2 i get error: No such a partition. I reinstalled win7 bootload / mbr and then reinstalled grub2 with live-cd. grub-install did find Win 7 bootload from /dev/sda3. But i still got the same problem. I also tried in grub2 with "e" option to change hd(0,3) to hd(0,1) and hd(0,2) both do have the same problem. | 08:54 |
| PanTerra | Kartagis, there is a package mnogosearch-common and there should be one mnogosearch-php | 08:54 |
| PanTerra | but I cant find it | 08:55 |
| PanTerra | my thougt would be it is one package now | 08:56 |
| PanTerra | but how do I enable this in php ini ? | 08:56 |
| PanTerra | I can compile the package, but I want a standard as possible system | 08:57 |
| PanTerra | as this is a production server(now in maintenance ofcourse) | 08:57 |

| psycho_oreos | Arethius, did you download the driver? | 09:06 |
| Arethius | yeah, I have it unpacked | 09:06 |
| Arethius | and went to edit the files but ralink has already updated them | 09:06 |
| Arethius | so I figured I just needed to install the module | 09:06 |
| Arethius | but I don't know how to do that | 09:07 |
| psycho_oreos | well you need to build it first | 09:07 |
| gylan1979 | hi everyone, i have a question about my google earth is blinking? is there anyone could help me pls...tq | 09:07 |
| Arethius | psycho_oreos: i've been on M$ comps my whole life. explain please | 09:07 |
| psycho_oreos | so you need to first navigate into the directory of your unpacked driver via terminal and then issue the command make | 09:07 |
| psycho_oreos | Arethius, was getting around to that :) they (Ralink) give you the source, they won't include pre-compiled drivers | 09:08 |
| gylan1979 | i'm using ati driver, and whenever i start my google earth, it seems to be blinking...how to solve this...please help? | 09:08 |
| Arethius | yeah, i understand that part. So just do cd *path of containing folder* and then make | 09:09 |
| psycho_oreos | Arethius, yup, instead of cd *path of containing folder* you actually do navigate into it.. i.e. cd /home/$user/name/of/that/path/containing/the/source/files/including/Makefile | 09:10 |
| neoas | hi can some one tel wr to run java programs please | 09:10 |
| gylan1979 | hello, i need help here, could anyone please help me...thank you. | 09:11 |
| psycho_oreos | neoas, you probably need to set it as executable prior to running it | 09:11 |
| Arethius | psycho_oreos: ok, I got the make part done....may I ask what next? | 09:11 |
| psycho_oreos | gylan1979, I don't have experience with google earth, and plus you aren't specific, there's two drivers for ati | 09:12 |
| psycho_oreos | Arethius, you need to issue sudo make install | 09:12 |
| neoas | psycho_oreos: how | 09:12 |
| psycho_oreos | neoas, right click on the file and I think from memory you go into permissions and check the box named execute | 09:12 |
| gylan1979 | psycho_oreos: ic, i am using ati x200m driver ... is there anyway to make it stop blinking bcos it makes me cannot see the earth. | 09:13 |
| Arethius | psycho_oreos: that gives me an error "no such file or directory" for the first error and then "leaving directory '/home/yadadadada/" | 09:14 |
| neoas | psycho_oreos: listen i edited the progrm in gedit and saved in the class name now tel me how to execute it | 09:14 |
| aj_ | gylan1979, you maybe have a composite window manager enabled (compiz)? try running in a terminal metacity --replace | 09:15 |
| psycho_oreos | gylan1979, well that isn't a driver, afaik by default you might be using the radeon driver, if you went through hardware drivers and enabled restricted driver named fglrx, you should get better performance out of your ati chipset but I'd research first before enabling fglrx (if available as option) | 09:15 |
| psycho_oreos | Arethius, what "sudo make install" ? | 09:15 |
| Arethius | psycho_oreos: yessir | 09:15 |
| gylan1979 | aj_: thanks aj_, yes i am running compiz... | 09:16 |
| aj_ | gylan1979, try that command, then try google eart, see if the blinking stops | 09:16 |
| aj_ | gylan1979, if so, it's an easy fix, if not compiz --replace will restore your compi back | 09:16 |
| psycho_oreos | neoas, you don't know how to do it from GUI? do it from terminal, navigate into where you saved the class file and do java foo.class | 09:17 |
| psycho_oreos | Arethius, hmm did the make show any errors? | 09:17 |
| bullgard | My loadable framebuffer module is vga16fb. I am using Grub2. How can I set the framebuffer resolution to 0x0340? | 09:17 |
| Arethius | psycho_oreos a couple file creation errors... | 09:18 |
| neoas | psycho_oreos: foo.class what is this | 09:18 |
| psycho_oreos | Arethius, can you pastebin the output of that make command you issued? | 09:18 |
| gylan1979 | aj_:ic, it is running ok when i type the command....but my compiz is closed | 09:18 |
| psycho_oreos | neoas, you replace the word foo with the actual filename of your class file | 09:19 |
| Arethius | psycho_oreos: the whole thing? | 09:19 |
| psycho_oreos | Arethius, yeah, into pastebin.. not paste | 09:19 |
| aj_ | ok, then maybe it's a compiz error. i get them sometimes, but i made a simple script to shut off compiz, run the program, then when you close it, compiz is restored | 09:19 |
| neoas | psycho_oreos: k i wil try give me a min | 09:19 |

| ardchoille | To install google earth in karmic: sudo apt-get install googleearth-package | 09:27 |
| psycho_oreos | Arethius, hmm make had lots of warnings, those aren't serious but during make install there's errors which are generally serious.. I think the dat file from memory should be inside the extracted directory/folder of that driver | 09:28 |
| gylan1979 | ic...i use to at the earlier step, but i didn't c the googleearth.. | 09:28 |
| === lhogie is now known as lucci | ||
| aj_ | ok gylan1979, copy & paste this into gedit, and save it as googleearth.sh : http://paste.ubuntu.com/400464/ | 09:28 |
| ardchoille | aj_: That's a weird thing to have to do | 09:29 |
| Arethius | psycho_oreos: meaning what in lamen's terms? | 09:29 |
| gylan1979 | aj_, ic..thanks.. | 09:30 |
| aj_ | ardchoille, i agree, i have to do this with blender and zsnes because compiz acts funny on this computer. if you know of a better way, i'm open for suggestions | 09:30 |
| ardchoille | aj_: does that machine have an nvidia card series 5 or 6? | 09:30 |
| aj_ | gylan, then make it executable, by right-clicking, select properties, and check to make it executable | 09:31 |
| ardchoille | aj i.e., geforce 5xxx or 6xxx | 09:31 |
| aj_ | ardchoille, no he said ati. mine is intel chip | 09:31 |
| gylan1979 | aj_, yes sir.. :D thank u. | 09:31 |
| ardchoille | ah, ok | 09:32 |
| psycho_oreos | Arethius, meaning you're missing some files when you issued make install. The name of the file that isn't found is written on the same line where you see Error [n]: | 09:32 |
| aj_ | gylan1979, next run alacarte in the terminal | 09:32 |
| ardchoille | psycho_oreos: sounds like missing deps | 09:32 |
| madmac2501 | hi, i am having this error message in ubuntu http://pastebin.com/9JLPX6cx. Where could i get help? | 09:32 |
| ardchoille | madmac2501: are you running debian? | 09:33 |
| gylan1979 | aj_, yes sir.. | 09:33 |
| aj_ | gylan1979, and go to the google earth entry. in the command browse for the sh file | 09:33 |
| Arethius | should I try "sudo make" first? | 09:33 |
| madmac2501 | ardchoille, i am running ubuntu 9.10 | 09:33 |
| aj_ | gylan1979, the the script will execute whenever you use google earth | 09:33 |
| ardchoille | madmac2501: ok | 09:33 |
| Guest98362 | thanks for your help bazhang | 09:33 |
| psycho_oreos | ardchoille, yup that too, but it looks more like a missing main binary file or two | 09:33 |
| gylan1979 | aj_, ok i made it...thank u so much.. | 09:34 |
| aj_ | gylan1979, youre welcome good luck. | 09:34 |
| Scotie | installed google earth, how to launch it | 09:34 |
| ardchoille | madmac2501: the wrong release is listed there, it looks like it's trying to find a "lenny" release file on the ubuntu servers and there isn't one | 09:34 |
| madmac2501 | ardchoille, yes, i explored the http directories and i have seen that it doesn't exist | 09:35 |
| aj_ | Scotie, from the terminal as "googleearth" or from the main menu under Internet | 09:35 |
| Scotie | thx aj | 09:35 |
| ardchoille | madmac2501: try changing line 3 from lenny to karmic | 09:35 |
| madmac2501 | ardchoille, but i need a lenny chroot... | 09:35 |
| ardchoille | madmac2501: or the --dist option in line 1 rather | 09:36 |
| ardchoille | madmac2501: that sounds like a recipe for problems | 09:36 |
| aj_ | welcome, Scotie | 09:36 |
| ardchoille | madmac2501: ubuntu != debian | 09:36 |
| madmac2501 | ardchoille, but i am running this in ubuntu | 09:37 |
| Arethius | psycho_oreos: so how do I fix this? | 09:37 |
| ardchoille | madmac2501: was that source package made for debian? Why would you need a lenny chroot? | 09:37 |
| ||arifaX | Losha: worked like a charm. used vnc4server - thanks again! | 09:37 |
| madmac2501 | i am using pbuilder from ubuntu repository. I need a lenny chroot to build debian packages for lenny | 09:38 |
| psycho_oreos | Arethius, ahh this is the same issue that I've seen before, I just downloaded the file to have a look at where its wrong | 09:38 |
| ardchoille | madmac2501: I'm no debian expert, but you should be building debian packages on a debian system, otherwise you will have problems | 09:39 |
| ardchoille | .. as you have seen | 09:39 |
| madmac2501 | ardchoille, well, because of that i want to use a lenny chroot | 09:39 |
| madmac2501 | ardchoille, but seems that pbuilder in ubuntu repository have a problem, where could i get help? | 09:40 |
| psycho_oreos | Arethius, inside the directory/folder of that rt3070 unpacked file you should see RT2870STA.dat, you will need to rename that to RT3070STA.dat and then try re-issuing "sudo make install?" | 09:40 |
| psycho_oreos | Arethius, s/install?/install | 09:40 |
| AbortD | anyone know why i cant view .conf files in a folder | 09:40 |
| ardchoille | madmac2501: you're trying to mix distros, that's not going to work without a ton of extra work.. if it works at all. | 09:41 |
| Arethius | ? | 09:41 |
| aj_ | AbortD, maybe they are hidden? press Ctrl+H to see hidden files | 09:41 |
| AbortD | aj does that stay in affect? | 09:41 |
| aj_ | AbortD, i think when you close a window it's reset | 09:42 |
| madmac2501 | ardchoille, ok, thanks, i don't agree, because a chroot is exactly to solve that | 09:42 |
| aj_ | AbortD, or when you Ctrl+H again | 09:42 |
| ardchoille | madmac2501: not spanning distros it's not. files are in different places, among other things | 09:42 |
| madmac2501 | ardchoille, then maybe there is a bug in pbuilder | 09:42 |
| AbortD | aj do you know how to edit the list of hidden stuff | 09:42 |
| ardchoille | madmac2501: no, there's no bug in pbuilder.. the bug is in what you are trying to do.. spanning distros | 09:43 |
| psycho_oreos | Arethius, lol just follow what I said in the big blurb and issue "sudo make install" | 09:43 |
| aj_ | AbortD, when a file has a . in front of the name, it is hidden | 09:43 |
| AbortD | oh | 09:43 |
| madmac2501 | ardchoille, ok, thanks, but i think that including options in pbuilder that don't work has no sense | 09:43 |
| Arethius | psycho_oreos: that seemed to work. I'm restarting the computer now to see if it will pick up wireless networks | 09:44 |
| aj_ | AbortD, but be careful renaming any .config files, or the software won't recognize it anymore | 09:44 |
| Scotie | use a netbook, resolution 1024 x, too large icons, is it possible to reduce them | 09:44 |
| AbortD | yup :P i think what im editing is considered a eggdrop | 09:44 |
| psycho_oreos | Arethius, hmm no real need to restart computer imo | 09:44 |

| Arethius | dmesg? | 09:47 |
| Scotie | thx aj | 09:47 |
| psycho_oreos | Arethius, dmesg is a console command, so you'll need to run that in terminal | 09:47 |

| psycho_oreos | Arethius, it appears the internal one is working and you're connected through wireless by the looks of it, not using usb | 09:54 |

| ^Phantom^ | Whew | 10:27 |
| drizzt_ | you should download mountdiag from fs-driver,org and run it | 10:28 |
| ^Phantom^ | Could this be because I have not been able to get a clean shutdown in unbuntu due to power problems with the machine it runs on? | 10:28 |

| the_gamer | drizzt_, is there a list to find out what each letter means? | 10:29 |

| drizzt_ | ^Phantom^, so had ypou downloaded and run mountdiag& | 10:34 |
| gylan1979 | abhi_nav, thanks for help...i try 1st | 10:35 |
| silv3r_m00n | how to run ie7 and 8 on ubuntu ? | 10:36 |
| drizzt_ | silv3r_m00n, via virtual machine | 10:36 |
| manulite | hello, i run on a relatively slow connection, and it seems like if apt-get is disrupted while still fetching packages if you start it again it refetches packages it had downloaded before, how do i tell it to cache | 10:37 |
| silv3r_m00n | drizzt_: I don't have windows installed on my computer | 10:37 |
| gylan1979 | abhi_nav, is there anyway to delete the folder which is containing files and folders? | 10:37 |
| ^Phantom^ | Okay back | 10:37 |
| ^Phantom^ | let me get mountdiag | 10:37 |
| drizzt_ | gylan1979, via terminal? | 10:38 |
| eto | ^Phantom^: well if it's WD passport 2,5'' those drives are unstandard crap, on USB2 connection they are fine, but on USB1 the, voltage is too low, so you need Y cable on certain machines, which have standard controllers which deliver lover voltages (older machiens). I happyly corrupted several times friend\s NTFS on this sucky drive, because of that | 10:38 |
| arand_ | silv3r_m00n: Indeed, virtual machine is probably the best bet, since wine is horrible when it comes to IE, alternatively you might be able to just switch user agent in FF? | 10:38 |
| gylan1979 | drizzt_..yes | 10:38 |
| ^Phantom^ | I'm using a 2.0 port | 10:38 |
| drizzt_ | gylan1979, rm -r <directory> | 10:38 |
| silv3r_m00n | arand_: can I use virtualbox and run ie7 without windows xp ? | 10:38 |
| Poent | why do you want to run IE? | 10:39 |
| ^Phantom^ | eww IE | 10:39 |
| arand_ | silv3r_m00n: No | 10:39 |
| ^Phantom^ | anyway brb gonna grab that app | 10:39 |
| silv3r_m00n | then ? | 10:39 |
| drizzt_ | silv3r_m00n, you'll have to pirate windows if you wan ie | 10:39 |
| theadmin | silv3r_m00n: Virtualbox virtualizes the OS so you can't run IE. | 10:39 |
| silv3r_m00n | hmm | 10:39 |
| theadmin | You can use WINE for it. | 10:39 |
| bazhang | drizzt_, dont suggest that here | 10:39 |
| Poent | IE is embedded in windows. | 10:39 |
| drizzt_ | i don't suggest anything | 10:39 |
| silv3r_m00n | drizzt_: do I need to install xp on a partition for virtualbox ? | 10:39 |
| gylan1979 | drizzt_, it is done.. thank u so much.. | 10:39 |
| theadmin | silv3r_m00n: it installs into a file | 10:39 |
| abhi_nav_ | gylan1979: rm command is used to delte folders | 10:39 |
| eto | ^Phantom^ : are you sure? I would try the Y cable still, if you have unexpected problems only on that machine, it might have chape USB controllers, Y cable draws voltage from 2 plugs to make drive happy | 10:39 |
| drizzt_ | silv3r_m00n, no you create a virtual disk in the file | 10:40 |
| theadmin | silv3r_m00n: If you have a partition you can install it the normal way | 10:40 |
| abhi_nav_ | gylan1979 first go to the respective folder using cd and then use rm filename | 10:40 |
| Lazy^ | silv3r_m00n: if you really wanna use ie7 use wine. But instll xp / win7 via virtualbox and then use ie7. Safer solution | 10:40 |
| ^Phantom^ | There was some kind of electrical disturbance that messed up that machine | 10:40 |
| gylan1979 | abhi_nav_ ic...thanks... | 10:40 |
| silv3r_m00n | ok | 10:40 |
| abhi_nav_ | gylan1979 hmm do man rm for more informatin | 10:40 |
| silv3r_m00n | let me install virtualbox | 10:40 |
| ^Phantom^ | I just need to get some data off the drive | 10:40 |
| ^Phantom^ | oh vb | 10:41 |
| ^Phantom^ | i wonder... | 10:41 |
| abhi_nav_ | gylan1979 and use this command use with care, as it can destroy important files | 10:41 |
| ^Phantom^ | could i use dsl to get the data using virtualbox? | 10:41 |
| abhi_nav_ | gylan1979 though your linux is running | 10:41 |
| Lazy^ | pakarle: whoot ? | 10:41 |
| === testi is now known as thechef | ||
| Lazy^ | ** ^Phantom^ i ment to say :) | 10:41 |
| gylan1979 | abhi_nav_, ic...thanks for advise...i understand it now.. | 10:41 |
| Poent | silv3r_m00n, why were you wanting to use IE? | 10:42 |
| abhi_nav_ | gylan1979 hmm..............:D | 10:42 |
| ^Phantom^ | oh | 10:42 |
| Lazy^ | ^Phantom^: what do you mean use dsl ? | 10:42 |
| raj22 | I have edge and bluetooth enabled mobile and a usb bluetooth radio and ubuntu 9.04. i want to connect the comp to internet | 10:42 |
| ^Phantom^ | damn small linux | 10:42 |
| ^Phantom^ | @ Lazy^ | 10:42 |
| arand_ | silv3r_m00n: http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Main_Page exists, but for v7-8 there's really only a virtual install of windows that works, since wine mangles it horribly, accordin to: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=25 | 10:42 |
| silv3r_m00n | Poent: to test my websites for cross browserness | 10:42 |
| Lazy^ | ^Phantom^: kk :) | 10:42 |
| eto | ^Phantom^ well: if it's SATA inside you can take it out from enclosure and connect it directly to mobo, plugs are same between 2,5'' and 3,5'' | 10:42 |
| silv3r_m00n | arand_: yah I used that already | 10:42 |
| gylan1979 | abhi_nav_, :D thanks for ur kindly help...nice day.. | 10:42 |
| eto | even if it's ide you can use reduction, it's like 2 euros here | 10:42 |
| ^Phantom^ | eto: I'm on a laptop <_< | 10:42 |
| theadmin | silv3r_m00n: Really, why do you NEED IE? It sucks. | 10:43 |
| eto | i wouldn't trust anything between, don't you have a normal machine enarby? | 10:43 |
| ^Phantom^ | It's all taken apart and needs a new video card | 10:43 |
| ^Phantom^ | ;_; | 10:43 |
| drizzt_ | theadmin, stop it | 10:43 |
| arand_ | silv3r_m00n: You _might_ get it running in wine, but it might be that you have no ide if the compability issues are due to IE or to the incompatibility with wine. | 10:44 |
| eto | go to basement and pull out that old PCI matrox video - just joking i have such crap for unexepcted use stacked in boxes | 10:44 |
| theadmin | drizzt_: I'm saying the truth. Any other browser is better. Shoulda used a different term though | 10:44 |
| silv3r_m00n | theadmin: to test my websites for cross browserness | 10:44 |
| silv3r_m00n | arand_: I am installing virtualbox | 10:44 |
| drizzt_ | theadmin, you're trying to provoke holywar | 10:44 |
| Poent | silv3r_m00n, http://browsershots.org/ | 10:44 |
| theadmin | silv3r_m00n: Just make sure they comply to w3c standarts. If they do, they should be fine. Although IE ignores MANY CSS attributes | 10:44 |
| eto | silv3r_m00n : if you are troubled by IE6 you don't need to | 10:45 |
| eto | even youtube doesn't support it now | 10:45 |
| theadmin | drizzt_: Am I? I think everyone here would agree except a couple of people. Really, anyway, whatever. Sorry. | 10:45 |
| eto | so you can safely forget about it | 10:45 |
| ^Phantom^ | I was reading around on google | 10:45 |
| ^Phantom^ | It appears I need to go get a clean shutdown before this driver will allow the drive to be mounted | 10:45 |
| silv3r_m00n | eto: ie6 is forgotten , 7 and 8 are having plenty of nonsense issues | 10:45 |
| eto | well ^Phantom^ i wish you luck | 10:46 |
| ^Phantom^ | it does that to avoid damaging data apparently | 10:46 |
| raj22 | I have edge and bluetooth enabled mobile and a usb bluetooth radio and ubuntu 9.04. i want to connect the comp to internet | 10:46 |
| ^Phantom^ | I'll be back if I run out of options | 10:46 |
| ^Phantom^ | Thank you for your help. | 10:46 |
| drizzt_ | theadmin, Microsoft is in w3c, didn't you know? | 10:46 |
| eto | haven't they left? drizzt_ anyway like they care | 10:46 |
| theadmin | drizzt_: Nevertheless their browser is not standart compliant, which is outright hilarious | 10:47 |
| Poent | silv3r_m00n, with http://browsershots.org/ you can test you're site with a ton of different browsers. It can even test with flash and java. It doesnt let you browse around them but they'll at least let you test a multitude of differnt abstract browsers | 10:47 |
| eto | ie is a mess | 10:47 |
| eto | silv3r_m00n : you can always run virtual winbox if youa re serious with multipleie installed | 10:47 |

| ravibn | Hi! I need help to recover my ubuntu installation. I hv 9.10 installed and was working good. Suddenly this afternoon I installed ubuntu tweak and something went wrong with my boot. It is a dual boot machine with XP. Whenever I select ubuntu from the list it goes to grub prompt. After reading in different forums I now hv booted this machine from livecd and I am on this chat. Please help me recover my hard disk boot | 10:51 |
| Shamoun | hey all | 10:51 |
| Shamoun | how reliable is ntfs write support in linux? | 10:51 |
| raj22 | I have edge and bluetooth enabled mobile and a usb bluetooth radio and ubuntu 9.04. i want to connect the comp to internet | 10:51 |
| bazhang | Shamoun, very | 10:51 |
| theadmin | Shamoun: Quite good, except for it is slower then on Windows | 10:51 |
| Shamoun | like could i use an ubuntu box as a NAS and just stick my ntfs formatted drives in there and be golden? | 10:51 |
| arand_ | ravibn: is this a clean install of 9.10 or an upgrade from 9.04? | 10:52 |
| theadmin | ravibn: Try chrooting into your Linux partition and updating GRUB | 10:52 |

| Uboss | Hello | 10:58 |
| theadmin | Hai, Uboss | 10:58 |
| shujayat | hi | 10:59 |
| Uboss | I have a problem with my external hard drive :P Before a few days I was installing Ubuntu but I forgot my external hard drive installed on my pc and I did a partition on it by a mistake. I did a format after that through Windows to delete the partition but the partition didn't go away. It shows on Ubuntu. What can I do? | 10:59 |
| theadmin | Uboss: I think it did go away and is just stuck in fstab | 11:00 |
| theadmin | Uboss: Check out GParted. | 11:00 |
| Dr_Willis | Uboss: formating is not the same as partioning. You repartion the drive to remove the extra partitons. | 11:00 |
| rexn | is it possible to dist-upgrade from 9.10 to lucid beta? | 11:00 |
| Uboss | I mean, I want my external hard drive to be shown as 1 disk only. Not 2. | 11:00 |
| Dr_Willis | rexn: it will be able to upgrade yes. | 11:01 |
| theadmin | rexn: Sorta, do "update-manager -d" | 11:01 |
| Dr_Willis | Uboss: if you have 2 partitions then you need to delete the one you dont want and resize the other. | 11:01 |
| theadmin | Uboss: sudo apt-get install gparted | 11:01 |
| Uboss | ye but how i will do this on an external drive. | 11:01 |
| rexn | thx guys! | 11:01 |
| theadmin | Uboss: From it, merge the partitions | 11:01 |
| Dr_Willis | Uboss: same as you would with an internal drive. using gparted is one way | 11:01 |
| Uboss | let me see | 11:02 |
| Uboss | I wont lose any info right? | 11:02 |
| === _Flusher is now known as Flusher | ||
| Dr_Willis | Uboss: if you DELETE a partition you lose the data on that partition. | 11:02 |
| Dr_Willis | Uboss: if you 'resize' with gparted in theory you shouldent. But it pays to have backups | 11:02 |
| === Flusher is now known as _Flusher | ||
| === _Flusher is now known as Flusher | ||
| Uboss | ok guys | 11:02 |
| Uboss | i will see later what to do | 11:03 |
| Uboss | exam time | 11:03 |
| Uboss | take care all! | 11:03 |
| theadmin | Dr_Willis: Yeah, i lost my NTFS partition when trying to resize because of a power outage. | 11:03 |
| Thraul | I am trying to remaster a ubuntu desktop cd. I can make small changes such as desktop background, theme etc on the boot (livecd), now how do I edit the menus and add desktop icons to the live cd? | 11:03 |
| Dr_Willis | theadmin: yep. ive found windows faster at resizeing ntfs also. | 11:03 |
| Dr_Willis | theadmin: poweroutage = bad :) | 11:03 |
| theadmin | Dr_Willis: I don't thing i can resize stuff from which the system runs... | 11:04 |
| theadmin | think* | 11:04 |
| Dr_Willis | theadmin: with windows it can. From what ive seen. | 11:04 |
| vladi | i'm trying to get my new Asus eee pc to work under crunchbang-ubuntu linux but i've got several problems with it... ethernet and wireless neither work (disabled, unclaimed) .. i think it's a problem with drivers, i've read on some forums that there is a solution for this, updating my kernel? or should i manualy set-up my network? ... btw. i think the graphics are not doing as they should too... any ideas anyone? | 11:04 |
| Dr_Willis | theadmin: i get a new laptop. i use windows to resize itself :) | 11:04 |
| rexn | I got hit with a blackout while flashing my BIOS. Bricked my machine. Sucked big time... | 11:04 |
| theadmin | Dr_Willis: Huh. I dunno, i have XP, it has no built-in partition editor at all it seems | 11:05 |
| Dr_Willis | vladi: you should proberly use a regular ubuntu, and add whatever light window managers you want to use. | 11:05 |
| Dr_Willis | theadmin: Vista and up i think | 11:05 |
| airtonix | vladi, i dont think derivatives of ubuntu are supported here | 11:05 |
| maxo | theadmin, yes it does, thru computer management | 11:05 |
| Dr_Willis | vladi: what airtonix said is true also. :) | 11:05 |
| theadmin | maxo: Ah, that thing. It's too confusing lol | 11:06 |
| vladi | well..ubuntu uses way too much resources | 11:06 |
| Dr_Willis | vladi: install a lighter window manager and use that instead of gnome | 11:06 |
| airtonix | vladi, server-iso > apt-get lol-packages > ???? > profit | 11:06 |
| vladi | for a small system like that...i don't need compiz and other useless stuff that come with ubuntu | 11:06 |
| theadmin | Dr_Willis: You want to say "a lighter desktop environment", don't you? Just a window manager won't save you | 11:06 |
| vladi | Dr_Willis anyway...tnx for the help | 11:06 |
| Dr_Willis | vladi: install a lighter window manager and use that instead of gnome and whatever other tools you like | 11:07 |
| Dr_Willis | theadmin: crunchbang last i tried it - just used fluxbox and not a full desktopp | 11:07 |
| === willow is now known as Guest49938 | ||
| Dr_Willis | of course Crunchbang is now based on debian.. so the whole discussion is now for other channels :) | 11:07 |
| theadmin | Dr_Willis: Don't really like all those clones... Kubuntu was a meh last i tried it... (it had KDE 4.2 back then...) | 11:07 |
| Dr_Willis | http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=crunchbang | 11:08 |
| Dr_Willis | theadmin: the latest kde4.4?? is what im using now. Its gotten VERY good. | 11:08 |
| vladi | thanks | 11:09 |
| theadmin | Dr_Willis: Gotta check it out again someday. Dolphin kept crashing on me when i tried to execute anything :/ | 11:09 |
| vladi | i think i found a solution | 11:09 |
| Dr_Willis | theadmin: rarely have crashes with it now. But i am betatesting 10.04 :) so crashing is part of the game. | 11:09 |
| Shamoun | thaks guys, g'night | 11:10 |
| vladi | anyway..i find crunchbang the same as ubuntu, just lighter, no graphic effects, little less user-friendly, but who cares...as long as it's a fast system ;)) | 11:10 |
| theadmin | Dr_Willis: Looks like i'll have to flip over to KDE or XFCE when 10.10 is released... Gnome Shell is soooo confusing | 11:10 |
| Dr_Willis | vladi: I just install fluxbox and use whatever wm i like.. and get the same stuff basically on ubuntu | 11:10 |
| vladi | and anyway... | 11:10 |
| Dr_Willis | theadmin: gnomeshell is a work in progress.. gnome3 will be a BIG change also | 11:10 |
| airtonix | theadmin, just remove gnome-shell ? | 11:11 |
| vladi | i found out that the problem is just with my network drivers which are too new for ubuntu's repos | 11:11 |
| Dr_Willis | I dident even see gnome-shell installed by default on 10.04 | 11:11 |
| vladi | so i have to download&install them manualy | 11:11 |
| zvacet | vladi: you can remove Ubuntu desktop and install lubuntu-desktop | 11:11 |
| Dr_Willis | I had MAJOR issues with instlling 'lubuntu-desktop' package under 9.04 | 11:11 |
| theadmin | airtonix: Uh-huh, and i'll get an empty screen when logging in (same happens with gnome-panel if i remove it on 10.04 and earlier) | 11:11 |
| Thraul | I am trying to remaster a ubuntu desktop cd. I can make small changes such as desktop background, theme etc on the boot (livecd), now how do I edit the menus and add desktop icons to the live cd? | 11:11 |
| Dr_Willis | or was it 9.10 :) i forget teh # | 11:11 |
| airtonix | theadmin, why are you removing gnome-panel ? | 11:12 |
| david__ | Hello everybody I have xubuntu 9.10 on my samsung nc10 , I can't set the luminosity someone can help me | 11:12 |
| === peter is now known as Guest37052 | ||

| IpSe_DiXiT | hi could anyone suggest a good sub-notebook linux-friendly? thanks | 11:13 |
| Dr_Willis | I wonder what the definition of a 'sub-notebook' even is | 11:13 |
| theadmin | vladi: zvacet: To remove ubuntu desktop, do "sudo tasksel remove ubuntu-desktop" | 11:13 |
| airtonix | IpSe_DiXiT, Dr_Willis a hardware question. | 11:14 |
| Dr_Willis | IpSe_DiXiT: get a budget - see whats out.. check reviews. | 11:14 |
| zvacet | theadmin: tnx | 11:14 |
| Dr_Willis | IpSe_DiXiT: ones that 'just came' out will be more problematic then ones that have been out a few months. | 11:14 |
| IpSe_DiXiT | Dr_Willis: well i knew this bms, i wanted to know if u guyz could suggest something... | 11:14 |
| Dr_Willis | IpSe_DiXiT: theres such a varity - its hard to even suggest anything. | 11:15 |
| IpSe_DiXiT | Dr_Willis: not looking for a "just came out" one, just for a good SUB-notebook thatz it | 11:15 |
| theadmin | Can i save a manpage into a file? | 11:15 |
| Dr_Willis | IpSe_DiXiT: define what 'SUB-notebook' even means. | 11:15 |
| Dr_Willis | theadmin: yes. | 11:15 |
| theadmin | Dr_Willis: How? | 11:15 |
| Dr_Willis | theadmin: try man foo > foo.txt | 11:15 |
| theadmin | Dr_Willis: Hm, i thought man invokes less, and that wouldn't work... trying out now. | 11:16 |
| Dr_Willis | theadmin: man pages are also avail at many web sites makes them easier to print | 11:16 |
| IpSe_DiXiT | Dr_Willis: a sub-notebook is not a netbook, itz a ultra-thin notebook, u know the really light ones? | 11:16 |
| Dr_Willis | theadmin: actually man invokes several things and pipes the output to less. | 11:16 |
| theadmin | Dr_Willis: Hm. It ended up to have an awful formatting :/ | 11:16 |
| === NeT|away is now known as NeT_DeMoN | ||
| Dr_Willis | IpSe_DiXiT: seen all sorts of laptops of various sizes and prices. So its all a matter of what features/price you want. | 11:17 |
| Dr_Willis | theadmin: yep. :) i recall that also.. man uses nroff, or troff (or groff?) for formating. So i recall ages ago tricks to get them into better text files.. but its been years since i last did it. | 11:17 |
| Dr_Willis | theadmin: try man -t ? | 11:18 |
| theadmin | Dr_Willis: Hm. | 11:18 |
| theadmin | Dr_Willis: Uh... | 11:18 |
| Dr_Willis | theadmin: i just oogled for 'man print pages' :) | 11:18 |
| IpSe_DiXiT | Dr_Willis: ive already looked myself, im just asking if u guys already use a sub-notebook and find urself comfy with it... | 11:18 |
| Dr_Willis | i think -t makes it not do some formating | 11:18 |
| vladi | why should i remove my desktop manager? if i'm getting network errors??? | 11:19 |
| vladi | what kind of advice is that | 11:19 |

| luiX_ | this is, I've build three different deb packages which are three different versions of the same app, and want to make the thee of them available in my repo.

| theadmin | vladi: Are you sure it has an underscore? Package names nearly never do so | 11:33 |
| luiX_ | zvacet, not run, just make them available in the repo | 11:33 |

| NET||abuse | pure_hate, weird, restartin everything without reboot wouldn't fix it, simple reboot of laptop and it's connected immediately. | 12:36 |
| soreau | ja660k: Are other compiz effects working? | 12:36 |
| ja660k | soreau, im not sure; so im going to assume no | 12:36 |
| NET||abuse | pure_hate, and i bet with this laptop if i change network again, it'll stop dhcp'ing successfully. | 12:36 |
| soreau | ja660k: Ok, I'm going to assume you don't have compiz enabled | 12:36 |
| soreau | ja660k: To enable it, open gnome-appearance-properties (System > Preferences > Appearance) and set the radio button to anything other than None in the Visual Effects tab. | 12:36 |

| ja660k | soreau, /etc/init.d/ccsm restart? or how can i restart it | 12:39 |

| meganerd | xfact: the PPA version should be able to keep itself up to date | 13:20 |

| airtonix | obscurant1st, type : /etc/apt/sources.list | 13:28 |
| airtonix | obscurant1st, of course this would be the sources.list of the live cd :) | 13:29 |
| obscurant1st | airtonix, this is from my system right, i think i hv corrupted it | 13:30 |

| elb0w | what if I have intel | 13:33 |
| VeGeTa-X | or I could have been seeing things | 13:33 |
| airtonix | obscurant1st, i assume you are using the live cd | 13:33 |

| obscurant1st | airtonix, no, i have installed ubuntu, i am using my installed ubuntu | 13:33 |
| Pici | elb0w: Because the 64bit specification that most computers use was created by AMD. | 13:33 |
| Dr_Willis | VeGeTa-X: installing clamav - last i checked - does not add any sort of auto-scaning features.. | 13:33 |

| Dr_Willis | sudobash: and its also very tiny | 13:36 |
| obscurant1st | airtonix, so there is noway of retrieving sources.lst? | 13:36 |
| sudobash | so deluge works | 13:36 |
| airtonix | obscurant1st, ok the easiest way is to reboot with the livecd and then copy from there using the steps i gave you earlier | 13:36 |
| sudobash | and it gets really good speeds plus works with multiple torrent better I think | 13:37 |

| abhi_nav | hi | 13:38 |
| nytek_ | anybody know what the problem is when ubuntu boots and asks me to reconfigure my display settings? | 13:38 |
| WhiteDawn | hello | 13:38 |
| Dr_Willis | ksbalaji: winff, and proberly others.. but most are front ends to ffmpeg. and mencoder. its worth learning the cli tools | 13:38 |
| nytek_ | apparently it wants to boot in low graphic mode | 13:38 |
| sudobash | airtonix, sudo apt-get install devede ffmpeg transcode | 13:38 |
| airtonix | sudobash, ? | 13:38 |
| sudobash | airtonix, sudo apt-get install devede ffmpeg transcode mencoder | 13:39 |
| Dr_Willis | nytek_: ive been seeing that every so often. and if i just tell it to restart the X server it gets it correctly the next time.. Not sure why | 13:39 |
| sudobash | that will install some stuff for you to do video transcoding | 13:39 |
| airtonix | sudobash, thanks for the help (for what i'm not sure yet) | 13:39 |
| ksbalaji | Dr_Willis, unfortunately, I am no good at commands. I use only GUI tools. | 13:39 |
| Dr_Willis | ksbalaji: so go learn... | 13:39 |
| airtonix | sudobash, i think you meant to let someone else know that yes ? | 13:39 |
| sudobash | use devede and don't forget to set it to NTSC if you are not using PAL | 13:39 |
| sudobash | oh yeah maybe lol... | 13:40 |
| sudobash | ksbalaji | 13:40 |
| Dr_Willis | sudobash: yep. i find that annoying some of devedes defaults | 13:40 |
| jessi | hola | 13:41 |
| abhi_nav | how to set ibus to default input method for permanant? I am using it for im, office aps and every aps. but it keeps changing to default when one session is closed | 13:41 |

| WhiteDawn | control alt backspace | 13:42 |
| Dr_Willis | sudobash: i always seem to have to hit that one button to resize the video to fit the disks also. It never wants to set it to 100% by default. :) | 13:42 |
| Dr_Willis | nytek_: sudo service gdm restart is one way. | 13:42 |

| sudobash | yeah but it never seems to decrese in quality does it 4 you Dr_willis? | 13:42 |

| Dr_Willis | senthil: they are just different desktops/window managers.. I saw some benchmark site that comapred the 2. but for most people its not a big diffreance | 13:45 |
| hetii | hello :) | 13:45 |
| ^mNotIntelligent | raven_, how far you've been thru the installation,, or you want to start it .... | 13:45 |
| senthil | more faster & reliable... in that scence im asking | 13:45 |
| raven_ | ^mNotIntelligent, want to start it - the system on that phone (whatever is might be) is like a cage to me | 13:46 |
| ^mNotIntelligent | raven_, do you have any kinda prior exposure to such kind of stufs ? | 13:47 |
| Dr_Willis | faster is relative.. both are decently reliable.. i imagine your NEEDS are more imporntant then any small time it takes to redraw a screen differance | 13:47 |
| Dr_Willis | senthil: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=linux_desktop_vitals&num=1 | 13:47 |

| abhi_nav | just testin ibus | 13:47 |
| senthil | Dr_Willis: i know its same as ubuntu but has different desktop environment... But i using kubuntu environment comparitively slower than ubuntu | 13:48 |
| raven_ | ^mNotIntelligent, only theoretical but it would not be worse if the try fails - can only become better ;) | 13:48 |
| Dr_Willis | senthil: kde is a little more memory heavy then gnome . yes. but i dont find it slower | 13:48 |
| WhiteDawn | senthil: i allways related kde to slugishness, maybe because i only used it on a live cd, but i stand by my statement | 13:48 |
| Dr_Willis | senthil: of course if you were on a older machine with not as much power.. it would get more noticeable | 13:48 |
| tomjmalone | anyone have any luck installing lucid on a macbook pro, the installer never loads just get a flashing dash any ideas? | 13:48 |
| ^mNotIntelligent | raven_, yeh, agree with your views... | 13:48 |
| abhi_nav | senthil: hi | 13:48 |
| Dr_Willis | senthil: i run both on my netbook and i did turn off all the eyecandy on kde.. of course i did the same to gnome :) | 13:49 |
| Dr_Willis | senthil: both are very useable | 13:49 |
| fabio333 | <tomjmalone>: not lucky enough to have a mac pro | 13:50 |
| senthil | Dr_Willis: noop i have good machine... slower means too many apps runs at same time its supports slowly... | 13:50 |
| raven_ | ^mNotIntelligent, how to "upgrade" then? | 13:50 |
| tp43 | I have a wierd issue with my video. When I use my webcam and vlc or any other video player, sumultaneously, one of them goes dark ofter. And most of the time I can close one, and its fine, but sometimes too ofter, even after closing the webcam program(cheese) the video players all play too dark. And there is no remedy except to log out and back in. I was wondering if anyone knew what I could do to reset the video without logging out and | 13:50 |
| tp43 | in? | 13:50 |
| Dr_Willis | senthil: i doubt if you will notice any differance. | 13:50 |
| Dr_Willis | senthil: its more about what you want to do with the desktop then anything else | 13:50 |
| ^mNotIntelligent | raven_, upgrade what ? you want to upgrade the os or want to do a fresh install on samsung | 13:51 |
| raven_ | ^mNotIntelligent, fresh install | 13:51 |
| ^mNotIntelligent | raven_, okie... i dont have much idea on this... a little bit only... which i can share with you | 13:52 |
| senthil | none difference with kubuntu... just fascinating envirinment... And one touch desktop | 13:52 |
| raven_ | ok | 13:52 |
| ^mNotIntelligent | raven_, lemme check if I can get some really good links/tutorials on the web that can help you playing around .... | 13:52 |

| Bob_Dole | linux on most mobile phones is a dumb idea. they are very weak hardware that are very limited in resources and there's usually a massive lack of driver support for the hardware on them | 13:59 |
| natediddy | hey anyone know if MotoDev the dev studio is available via apt-get? | 13:59 |
| ayam_jago | Bob_Dole try virtualbox | 13:59 |
| ^mNotIntelligent | raven_, then i must say, first get a good basics about all your current os, your hardware compatibility etc ... then read up some docs, watch you tube videos, then only plan for actually installing a new os on your phone... | 13:59 |
| natediddy | Bob_Dole, what about Droid and Nexus One | 13:59 |
| tp43 | actually it might have to do with flash | 13:59 |
| natediddy | ? | 13:59 |
| ^mNotIntelligent | natediddy, did you search thru apt-cache ? | 13:59 |
| ayam_jago | natediddy : try apt-get install moto-dev | 13:59 |
| raven_ | ok | 13:59 |

| superimpala | PreZLaptop: hi | 14:25 |
| troels | ayam_jago, Anyway of finding out what application was the cause of the error. yesteday I had n problems. | 14:25 |
| om26er | Acony, watch the language please | 14:25 |
| fabio333 | <Acony>: as always i can't see the point | 14:26 |
| fabio333 | my fault | 14:26 |
| ranjan | Dr_Willis: according to the manual it says it's compatible to iphones head phone .. | 14:26 |
| Acony | fabio333, it is much faster and easier to get dialog automatically when u press print sc so u can instantly save a pic | 14:26 |
| ubuntu | how to set static ip in ubuntu | 14:27 |
| Dr_Willis | ranjan: that means very little to me. Ive never owned an iphone. and never will | 14:27 |
| fabio333 | <Acony>: when i press the stamp key i get the dialog | 14:27 |
| synfin | How can I forcibly reset (set?) the root password on Ubuntu 9.10? I have an inoperative box boudn to NIS and the only way to figure out what is wrong demands root. My normal trick of adding a grub command init=/bin/sh does not appear to work, maybe because Ubuntu is using the newest grub release. | 14:27 |
| Acony | fabio333, LOL are u reading my problems at all ? I am not on ubunutu and I want ubuntu functionality for that future, this is all about it :D | 14:28 |
| llutz | synfin: if you need root-access, use sudo -i | 14:28 |
| Dr_Willis | synfin: append 'single' to the end of the kernel options. not that init trick. perhaps | 14:28 |
| synfin | No | 14:28 |
| synfin | single demands a root password | 14:28 |
| synfin | for "maintenance" | 14:28 |
| ayam_jago | troels: i think you should edit that source on /etc/apt/sources.list n remove that error link | 14:28 |
| Dr_Willis | synfin: so you actually set a root password then? | 14:28 |
| ubuntu | how to set static ip i ubuntu | 14:29 |
| synfin | llutz: no, I do not have user access. Sudo requires user access | 14:29 |
| troels | ayam_jago, Thanks - will try to do so | 14:29 |
| Dr_Willis | synfin: boot live cd and chrroot in and reset is an way | 14:29 |
| synfin | Dr_Willis: No, I need to set one so I can become root. | 14:29 |
| ranjan | Dr_Willis: ok thanks for your time .. I have to find some body in locality to gave an cross cake .. with that .. | 14:29 |
| synfin | Dr_Willis: there is no way to do it from grub? | 14:29 |
| llutz | ubuntu: edit /etc/network/interfaces, how to do is explained in "man interfaces" | 14:29 |
| fabio333 | <Acony>: windows works the same... anyway that doesn bother me anymroe | 14:30 |
| illusive | Acony: I don't really have an answer then. I thought the dialog was a gnome feature not specific for Ubuntu. | 14:30 |
| Dr_Willis | synfin: i never set a root password.. so i can use the single mode.. | 14:31 |
| Acony | illusive, ok thanks, can u just give me the command line argument, how ubuntu calls gnome-screenshot ? | 14:31 |
| synfin | you mean, just hit "enter", no password? | 14:31 |
| Acony | is it gnome-screenshot --interactive or what ? | 14:31 |
| arand | synfin: unless specifically set up, single shouldn't require a pasword... And no activating a root account can't be done from grub I don't think. | 14:31 |
| synfin | arand: Isn't single user mode root? | 14:32 |
| Dr_Willis | synfin: by default there IS no root users password. It may be wanting the main sudo users password. | 14:32 |

| synfin | let me go try those ideas then. I just figured when it asked for a password it would have a password associated with it. | 14:35 |

| Diverdude | Solar_Flare, so that has nothing to do with thinlinc | 15:19 |

| abhi_nav | hello all !!! | 15:31 |
| leagris | BMUser, if you move skype to a specific user install and only allow its use with that user via some sudo script, users will not be able to access recieved files or transmit theirs unless they can allow anonymous access to their homedir. then you may as well run skype in a chroot environment. By the way Skype is a closed source blackbox legitimately you can't trust as skypes takes hoops and heavy encoding to hide it's protocols and internals. | 15:31 |
| DarkStar1 | gparted: format the other partitions (except swap) or delete them then apply the actions | 15:32 |

| Flare183 | theadmin: It works tho :P :) | 16:12 |
| DarkStar1 | Flare183: aaahh crap.. any GUI substitute?? I'm a relative noob and ah aint got the time to be reading up on settings and file tampering? | 16:12 |
| Flare183 | DarkStar1: dude, just read the manual; man x11vnc | 16:13 |

| allu2 | kapcom01, no problem i hope it works :) | 17:09 |
| bullgard | guntbert: You are mistaken. My question was: "[17:53]<bullgard>What is the preferred directory in Ubuntu to download the source code file of a DEB program package?" I am not interested in a general discussion about software engineering. | 17:09 |
| obscurant1st | when i gve the command it fdisk, it gives an error like "partition table entries are not in disk order" http://pastie.org/885006 is there anyway by which i can fix it? | 17:09 |
| obscurant1st | somebody? | 17:09 |
| DopeGhoti | obscurant1st: that's not an error; that's an informational message. | 17:09 |
| TomV_415 | WhiteDawn: I'm on with a liveCD version, but my disk drives do not look full - primary has over 100gb free. | 17:10 |
| Myrtti | bullgard: there is no preferred directory. Where you download that stuff to is your own business. Only thing that matters for Ubuntu/Debian is where you've set up the compiled stuff to go. | 17:10 |
| theadmin | DopeGhoti: Any idea whether those print to stdout or stderr by the way? | 17:10 |
| TomV_415 | what is happening at boot time to make ubuntu think I'm 'out of disk'?? | 17:10 |
| Pici | bullgard: If you're going to be working with the source, then somewhere in your home directory. Otherwise source for building other things (like the linux kernel) usually goes into /usr/src/ or /usr/local/src/ see man hier for information on that. | 17:10 |
| DopeGhoti | theadmin: not off the top of my head, but I'd guess stdout | 17:10 |
| jimcooncat | theadmin: weird, now I can get abiword. thanks anyway | 17:10 |
| theadmin | TomV_415: Err... "out of disc"? | 17:11 |
| guntbert | bullgard: and my answer was "wherever you like" - another one was "preferably in your home directory" - but you didn't like both - and we are not talking about software engineering her :-) | 17:11 |
| guntbert | *here | 17:11 |
| obscurant1st | DopeGhoti, so there is no way i fix the order? | 17:11 |
| TomV_415 | theadmin: 'out of disk' is the error I'm getting when I try to boot. | 17:11 |
| DopeGhoti | obscurant1st: not without rewriting the partition table. It's nothing to be concerned about. | 17:11 |
| noladesi | yeah boy | 17:11 |
| theadmin | TomV_415: Ah, sounds like some partitioning error, boot from a cd and fsck your hard drive | 17:12 |
| TomV_415 | what does fsck do? | 17:12 |
| jimcooncat | Our company has a Zimbra installation, and I'd like to connect with a real client from Karmic. Zimbra Desktop available from an official repo? Or use Evolution? Or Thunderbird? Or something else? | 17:12 |
| theadmin | TomV_415: fsck : FileSystem ChecK. | 17:12 |
| bullgard | Myrtti: Why is there no standardized directory? It would help mutual understanding and circumvent misunderstandings in a lot of cases. I am aware that it does not matter where I have the sourcecode for compilation purposes. | 17:12 |
| obscurant1st | DopeGhoti, but i was trying to install mac by using aiktos dvd, it was not able to erase any partitions, so i thought this will be the problem | 17:12 |
| TomV_415 | theadmin: got it... I'm reading the man page now. Thanks for the suggestion! Hope that does the trick! | 17:12 |
| bullgard | guntbert: No worries. -- Thank you. | 17:13 |
| DopeGhoti | obscurant1st: the message is telling you that your hard drive's partitions are, in order on the disk, for example, [1][3][2] rather than [1][2][3]. That's all it is. | 17:13 |
| guntbert | bullgard: :) | 17:13 |
| Jimi_Neutral | I have vsftpd on my box. How would I give FTP access to a user but only let him have access to one folder? | 17:13 |

| noladesi | hey | 17:14 |
| Jimi_Neutral | I am very new to Linux and FTP and have vsftpd on my box after much help from here and a tutorial. How would I give FTP access to a user on the network (windows user) but only let him have access to one folder? | 17:14 |
| DopeGhoti | Jimi_Neutral: You could set up the FTP server to give users access to their home directories rather than a communal FTP space | 17:15 |

| sipior | pokoko222: why should we help such an unpleasant person? there are better ways to waste time. | 17:30 |
| WhiteDawn | brow_: irc is what you mean, and yeah there are tonnes of channels, join #irc if you want help with irc :P | 17:30 |
| allu2 | pokoko222, so you tried Nvu? | 17:30 |
| Jimi_Neutral | llutz, as far as i can see that is about setting him up a home folder within var/www/? I want to just give him access to /var/www/...thats all he needs....sorry | 17:30 |
| pokoko222 | allu2 well nvu no, let me get it | 17:30 |
| theadmin | Help me. Dunno what the hell, but Firefox does not see Java anymore. | 17:31 |
| llutz | Jimi_Neutral: use /var/www as his ftp-home then | 17:31 |
| Trek | theadmin: make sure you installed the updated java-plugin package | 17:31 |
| mickster04 | theadmin: what have you changed since it laast worked? | 17:31 |
| WhiteDawn | theadmin: have u tried to reinstall through synaptic/apt-get? | 17:31 |
| Jimi_Neutral | llutz, and it will only give him access to that? | 17:31 |
| Enverex | allu2, I already suggested that to him but he was busy arguing | 17:31 |
| theadmin | mickster04: i added the "firefox-stable" repo | 17:31 |
| pokoko222 | allu2 all i get in synaptic is Transition package for Nvu --> KompoZer fork... is it that one? | 17:31 |
| pokoko222 | does not sound like WYSIWYG web editor | 17:32 |
| llutz | Jimi_Neutral: as far as i read the howto, yes (sry i don't use any ftp myself) | 17:32 |
| allu2 | pokoko222, seems so | 17:32 |
| mickster04 | theadmin: maybe reinstall the java stuff then | 17:32 |
| allu2 | pokoko222, appereantly Nvu project changed name | 17:32 |
| theadmin | mickster04: Hm, will try. | 17:32 |
| pokoko222 | allu2 chesus dude | 17:32 |
| Enverex | pokoko222, It is. Also look at Amaya, EditLive!, eWebEditPro and SeaMonkey | 17:32 |
| Jimi_Neutral | llutz, aye, me neither, how can you tell lol....so this password file..where do i actually set his password cause i cant see that, or is it just left blank | 17:33 |
| pokoko222 | Enverex wow thanks | 17:33 |
| WhiteDawn | pokoko222: why not openwysiwyg? | 17:33 |
| hareldvd | Can Ubuntu connect to GPS? | 17:33 |
| Enverex | mickster04, No, Kompozer was a fork of nVu that hasn't been updated in over a year | 17:33 |
| pokoko222 | WhiteDawn and that is? | 17:33 |

| iustinian | poent: true | 18:46 |
| Chousuke | poent: but even if it doesn't, as long as the windows partition is not destroyed you can always do it afterwards from ubuntu. | 18:46 |

| zfe | I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX. Many computer users run a modified version of the | 19:02 |
| zfe | GNU system every day, without realizing it. | 19:02 |
| burnbrighter | <bump> using 9.10, wondering if anyone has seen freezes when su'ing to another user from the superuser? ie. sudo bash -> # su - user ? /etc/resolv.conf is set up properly | 19:04 |
| xangua | zfe: we know that, more easier and cool to just say linux | 19:04 |
| zfe | Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The | 19:04 |
| zfe | kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux. | 19:04 |
| iustinian | angel_linuxfreak: chmod +x | 19:04 |
| angel_linuxfreak | iustinian, thanks | 19:04 |
| xangua | zfe: stop the offtopic ;) | 19:04 |
| Knirgh | !troll | zfe | 19:04 |

| scott_ino2 | econtomawesome, still not exactly sure what you mean can you describe it again for me | 19:07 |
| alex88 | alexlea: wikipedia? searching what? | 19:07 |
| alexlea | alex88: i know in osx you mount the iso, and copy the partition... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dd_(Unix) | 19:07 |
| alex88 | alexlea: i'm on ubuntu..... btw, i'll try..i've tried with dd if=iso.iso of=/dev/sdc but no luck.. | 19:08 |
| econtomawesome | scott_ino2 MS office 2007 has two DVD's. I am making one image file per disc via dd in cli. I would then like to merge these image files so I can put them on the same USB thumb drive | 19:08 |
| alex88 | pc an't boot | 19:08 |
| alexlea | alex88: every dd command is on that wikipedia page; as for your source being an iso, you will prolly need to munt the iso, and then your source will be something like /media/something (dont really know)....you could also use unetbootin maybe | 19:08 |
| madcat1990 | I have a folder shared on my 9.10, and my 8.04 finds it on the network. however, when I try opening it, it asks for a password and username. I give him my username and password, but it doesn't work, seems like wrong username/password. Any suggestions? | 19:08 |

| harisund | Kwpolska: I think the status is changed by clicking on your username in the notifications area, you can change status there .. but that's as far as I know. If it has a dedicated tray icon like Pidgin has, for example I don't know :( | 19:56 |

| Losha | Ddorda: just curious, why do you want to remove all panels? | 20:25 |
| JimmyNeutron | Subby, Sorry, can't help you anymore than...I was merely testing out Evolution vs Thunderbird and decided on Thunderbird so I never went back to play w/ Evolution again | 20:26 |

| JimmyNeutron | and install thunderbird by using the mozilla repository | 20:28 |

| BluesKaj | rohan, dunno , i just know the firmware is supported til 2013 | 20:33 |
| joesin | I cannot get this input device to be scene by several screen vid cap software packages... | 20:34 |
| rohan | close the hardware manager, and type that in a terminal, joshuah | 20:34 |
| leifw | andreas: gnome, but you should just try both and see what you like | 20:34 |
| rohan | BluesKaj: oh.. and what happens after 2013? | 20:34 |
| joshuah | rohan: bcmwl-kernel-source is already the newest version. | 20:34 |
| joesin | how do I locate the specific device currently being used as audio input? | 20:34 |
| BluesKaj | rohan, I guess we'll have to ask canonical :) | 20:34 |
| joesin | would it be the ps commancd? | 20:34 |
| rohan | joshuah: ok, then please try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure bcmwl-kernel-source" | 20:34 |
| leifw | andreas: you can install ubuntu straight up and then install the 'kubuntu-desktop' package, and switch between the desktops at login time | 20:34 |

| lifestream | ZykoticK9, that's true,it could be! But I do know for sure that such a terminal on the wallpaper is available, I used to have it a while back. If you notice,there's a block prompt to type at the end of the text | 20:49 |
| ubutom | quick ofcourse;) | 20:49 |
| joesin | i dont get why skype works fine... sound recorder works fine... but all vid caps cant get along... | 20:49 |
| ZykoticK9 | lifestream, good point -- sorry man i have no idea | 20:49 |
| lifestream | :D | 20:49 |
| OasisTopher | Hi, is medibuntu still the way to get those proprietary packages? | 20:49 |
| rohan | joshuah: strange.. then it should have taken care after kernel update. | 20:50 |
| joshuah | rohan: odd, oh well though ^^, I guess I just need to learn more about modprobe and dpkg :) | 20:50 |
| ZykoticK9 | OasisTopher, if you're using Karmic installing ubuntu-restricted-extras will look after most codecs for you. Also as a side note Skype was removed from medibuntu | 20:50 |
| perberos | http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=192197 bug of 2003. :_( | 20:50 |
| rohan | joshuah: do echo -e 'blacklist b43\nblacklist b43_legacy\nblacklist bcm3xx\nblacklist ssb' | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-b43 | 20:51 |
| OasisTopher | Zykotic, then how does one get Skype? | 20:51 |
| genii | !skype | 20:51 |
| ubottu | To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto - Please use open protocols instead if you can, see !Ekiga | 20:51 |
| ZykoticK9 | OasisTopher, http://www.skype.com/intl/en/download/skype/linux/choose/ | 20:52 |
| rohan | joshuah: well that should cover it.. next time it doesn't work, just try doing 'sudo modprobe wl' and see if it will :) | 20:52 |
| joshuah | rohan: blacklist b43 <newline> blacklist b43_legacy <newline> blacklist bcm3xx <newline> blacklist ssb | 20:52 |
| joshuah | rohan: ok, I saved that command | 20:52 |
| sqwertle | I've had this problem for a bit now, and I can't seem to get it fixed. I've followed the guides I've found on it to the best of my ability but have not come to a solution. Upon running most programs without root I get this error Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "ubuntulooks". | 20:52 |
| joesin | how do I find where the sound recorder is getting its input from? | 20:53 |
| joesin | not listed in prefs... | 20:53 |
| rohan | joshuah: yes the output is as expected.. it should work across reboots now. | 20:54 |
| york105 | joesin, i guess Sound Recorder takes its input from default capture device set in alsa, to change this type alsamixer in terminal and change the capture device | 20:54 |
| joshuah | rohan: ok cool, so it's not blacklisted then? | 20:55 |
| Nilos | Can someone help me with my network connection(it no longer connects with PEAP)? | 20:55 |
| harisund | Nilos: What's happening? What did you do earlier adn what changed? | 20:55 |
| harisund | Nilos: Do you use Network Manager? | 20:55 |
| Nilos | yes i use network manager | 20:56 |
| york105 | Nilos for our info can you do a paste of ifconfig | 20:56 |
| Nilos | we are required by our campu network to change our pass every 90 days | 20:56 |
| Nilos | ok one sec | 20:56 |
| harisund | Nilos: if you are pasting anything don't paste it here, paste it elsewhere and link it here | 20:56 |
| york105 | Nilos, use the paste.ubuntu.com service | 20:56 |

| york105 | aye, there's ubottu, missed you my dear bot | 20:57 |
| KB1JWQ | harisund: Oh? | 20:57 |
| eko | good evening | 20:57 |

| Myrtti | AlVaRiToOo: you need to behave, or you'll be removed from the channel | 20:59 |
| rohan | joshuah: no i actually blacklisted it.. deliberately. the open source driver would conflict with the closed source one. | 20:59 |

| angel_linuxfreak | I am trying to create a launcher for a python program but I can't figure it out. Here is the command I am using in the launcher. "/home/angel/.config/pystromo/pystromo-remap.py -m default.map" Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong? | 21:02 |
| gnomo | hello | 21:02 |
| gasull | angel_linuxfreak: does your program need a terminal? | 21:02 |
| Hypnoz | brandonc503: you want to undo all changes you've made to your system since you installed? | 21:02 |
| sqwertle | I've had this problem for a bit now, and I can't seem to get it fixed. I've followed the guides I've found on it to the best of my ability but have not come to a solution. Upon running most programs without root I get this error Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "ubuntulooks". | 21:02 |
| harisund | angel_linuxfreak: if I am not much mistaken, you might want to call /usr/bin/python ahead of it since it's a .py script | 21:02 |
| angel_linuxfreak | gasull, I normally start it from terminal but I don't believe it requires one. | 21:03 |
| Ddorda | Losha: main reason is that I just don't need it :P | 21:03 |
| Ddorda | Losha: Im using AWN, it works great. | 21:03 |
| angel_linuxfreak | harisund, I will try that really quick. Thanks | 21:03 |
| gasull | angel_linuxfreak: I mean, is the output of the program in the terminal or do you get a new window? | 21:03 |
| Hypnoz | sqwertle: can you open a terminal window, and type "locate ubuntulooks" | 21:04 |
| angel_linuxfreak | gasull, it's a background program. When I run it from terminal I get output in the terminal window but no new window is created. | 21:04 |
| sqwertle | Hypnoz: Yes, I can. After doing that I go right back to $ | 21:05 |
| angel_linuxfreak | harisund, I changed the command to this: "/usr/bin/python /home/angel/.config/pystromo/pystromo-remap.py -m default.map" but it still isn't working | 21:05 |
| Rolcol | Is there a way to connect to multiple wireless access points with one network card? | 21:05 |
| ZykoticK9 | angel_linuxfreak, you'll probably need to run with "gnome-terminal -e /home/angel/.config/pystromo/pystromo-remap.py -m default.map" | 21:05 |
| york105 | Rolcol, simple answer is no | 21:05 |
| angel_linuxfreak | ZykoticK9, trying that right now, thank you | 21:05 |
| lifestream | This is offtopic but I don't know where to find the information. Does anyone know how Acer (specifically Acer) goes about refunding Windows? *please* send a PM instead of discussing it in the channel;p | 21:05 |
| guntbert | Rolcol: not at the same time | 21:05 |
| kitta1652 | Hello. | 21:05 |
| Rolcol | york105: and the complicated answer? | 21:05 |
| gasull | angel_linuxfreak: then, in the launcher choose "type: application in terminal" in the drop down menu | 21:06 |
| york105 | Rolcol , you can however give virtualisation a try :) that's the complicated answer | 21:06 |
| kitta1652 | I am having an issue with Avahi under Ubuntu 9.10 | 21:06 |
| Hypnoz | sqwertle: I'm thinking that's some file that is on root's path but not on your path | 21:06 |
| Hypnoz | sqwertle: but if it's not being located i'm not sure where it's calling from | 21:06 |
| kitta1652 | I'm in a situation where a DHCP server is not availible. | 21:06 |
| Rolcol | Nooo! My external wireless card would have been golden and useful right now. | 21:06 |
| kitta1652 | I need AVhi to do APIPA Addressng on start up | 21:06 |
| sqwertle | Hypnoz: Even running it with su doesn't give me a path however. | 21:06 |
| ZykoticK9 | Rolcol, actually i don't think it's possible to have multiple access point connected to one wireless card | 21:07 |
| angel_linuxfreak | ZykoticK9, that just opens my launcher details for editing in my mousepad text editor | 21:07 |
| angel_linuxfreak | gasull, trying that now. | 21:07 |
| kitta1652 | but AVAHI it not starting autoip[d | 21:07 |
| kitta1652 | so. | 21:07 |
| warpi | hi! is it possible to use ustream with ubuntu? | 21:07 |
| Flare183 | !enter | kitta1652 | 21:07 |
| ubottu | kitta1652: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 21:07 |
| gasull | angel_linuxfreak: and the command should be "/home/angel/.config/pystromo/pystromo-remap.py -m default.map" | 21:07 |
| Ddorda | anyone knows how I can completely remove gnome-panel? | 21:07 |
| Trek | ZykoticK9, Rolcol, you can't have multiple wireless access points connected on one card, but you can cycle from one to the next seamlessly | 21:07 |
| gasull | angel_linuxfreak: or maybe "python /home/angel/.config/pystromo/pystromo-remap.py -m default.map" | 21:07 |
| ZykoticK9 | Trek, i agree | 21:08 |
| Trek | ZykoticK9, Rolcol, as in if you walk out of range of one and another is in range, it picks up the newlydetected one | 21:08 |
| unimatrix | how is it possible that my ubuntu USB key worked about 3 times then after that refused to boot at all? | 21:08 |
| Trek | happens on my system on-campus at the University i'm at all the time | 21:08 |
| kitta1652 | So how do I fix Avahi? | 21:08 |
| Rolcol | Trek: that I knew. | 21:08 |
| york105 | Ddora, why would you want to remove the panel? are you wanting to get rid of gnome-desktop? | 21:08 |
| Hypnoz | sqwertle: try sudo apt-get install gtk2-engines-ubuntulooks | 21:08 |
| angel_linuxfreak | gasull, ok trying them now. Getting an error with the first, but the error pertains to a problem with pystromo I need to fix. Not with the launcher. Will let you know as soon as I figure this part out | 21:08 |

| Tapout | on ubuntu live cd, how do you remount a drive read-write? i cannot remove any files | 21:09 |
| Trek | ZykoticK9, Rolcol, even with virtualization, there would be colissions of data within the system, so the technical answer is "No you can't connect multiple access points to one card" | 21:09 |
| Trek | ZykoticK9, Rolcol, not without having more than one card | 21:09 |
| sqwertle | Hypnoz: http://paste.ubuntu.com/400787/ | 21:10 |

| Zenker_ | im using ubuntu 9.10, i ws wondering how can i get xchat to be back to its default state (the options n such to be as if i just installed it) i tried uninstalling/reinstalling and it reinstalls with the same preferences as before | 21:10 |
| Hypnoz | sqwertle: do you have any package managers open on the desktop? synaptics or add/remove programs windows? | 21:10 |
| sqwertle | Hypnoz: Yes, synaptic | 21:10 |
| Hypnoz | close that down | 21:10 |
| Rolcol | Zenker_: Delete the ~/.xchat2 folder. It hides its preferences there. | 21:11 |
| angel_linuxfreak | gasull, This "/home/angel/.config/pystromo/pystromo-remap.py -m /home/angel/.config/pystromo/default.map" Did the trick, with the run in terminal turned out. Thanks for your help. Question though, I would like to turn this into a startup program. There is not an option when creating a startup program to run it in terminal. Might you have any suggestions as to what command I should use to get it to work from startup? | 21:11 |
| Hypnoz | sqwertle: then sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install gtk2-engines-ubuntulooks | 21:11 |
| Zenker_ | ahhh ok thank you Rolcol | 21:11 |
| ZykoticK9 | angel_linuxfreak, using "gnome-terminal -e" SHOULD be the same as selecting "run in terminal" | 21:12 |
| gasull | angel_linuxfreak: go to System-> Preferences-> Startup applications | 21:12 |
| angel_linuxfreak | ZykoticK9, I will try that. | 21:12 |

| angel_linuxfreak | gasull, I am already there, just trying to work out the kinks of the command for the startup addition. | 21:12 |
| gasull | ZykoticK9: it should, but it isn't. I've had problems with this in the past | 21:13 |
| Hypnoz | Tapout: mount -n -o remount,rw /media/drivename | 21:13 |
| angel_linuxfreak | ZykoticK9, what is the -e argument for? | 21:13 |
| ZykoticK9 | angel_linuxfreak, run a command | 21:14 |
| Hypnoz | Tapout: df to see mounted drives and their path | 21:14 |
| hello_kitty | http://www.e-castig.com/index.php?r=HzkN i just need couple more clicks , please help me, this is the last time i'm sending this :)))))))))) | 21:14 |
| angel_linuxfreak | ZykoticK9, ah ok. One other thing, I am running Xubuntu, how do I check to see if Xubuntu is using a different terminal program than gnome-terminal> | 21:14 |
| angel_linuxfreak | ZykoticK9, ah figured it out, I am using Xfce Terminal Emulator | 21:15 |
| gasull | angel_linuxfreak: try with "gnome-terminal -x /home/angel/.config/pystromo/pystromo-remap.py -m default.map" | 21:15 |
| Tapout | Hypnoz, i see what is going on... i'm logged in with the file browser as a regular user... anyway to sudo/be root while using the file browser? | 21:15 |
| angel_linuxfreak | ZykoticK9, so I guess I need to look up the command to launch that instead of gnome-terminal | 21:15 |
| angel_linuxfreak | gasull, what is the -x for> | 21:15 |
| ZykoticK9 | angel_linuxfreak, certainly xterm should be available and it also uses -e | 21:15 |
| angel_linuxfreak | ZykoticK9, ah ok, thanks very much | 21:16 |
| gasull | angel_linuxfreak: means to execute the remainder of the command within the gnome-terminal | 21:16 |
| gasull | angel_linuxfreak: but b/c you're using gnome-terminal, I'm not sure how it will work | 21:16 |
| Hypnoz | Tapout: maybe sudo nautilus? | 21:16 |
| kitta1652 | Anyone else? | 21:16 |
| kitta1652 | Really, all I need is for Avahi-autoipd to start on startup. | 21:17 |
| angel_linuxfreak | gasull, ZykoticK9, ok I am going to go mess with all this information you gave me. thanks a lot for your help guys! :) | 21:17 |
| gasull | angel_linuxfreak: maybe you want to install roxterm. I love it. Like gnome-terminal but lighter | 21:17 |
| guntbert | !gksudo | Hypnoz | 21:17 |
| ubottu | Hypnoz: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 21:17 |
| angel_linuxfreak | gasull, I will check into it | 21:17 |
| ZykoticK9 | Tapout, Hypnoz i guess if you're running from livecd it doesn't actually matter - but generally use "gksu $program" for graphical programs needing sudo | 21:17 |
| Hypnoz | Tapout: there, what he said | 21:18 |

It started up the program like it was supposed to. Now I am just trying to clean up. On the boot it starts the program in an xterm that is visible and won't close. I would like it to run the command in a terminal that doesn't show up. I want it to run in the background basically. Do you have any suggestions? | 21:25 |

| harisund | Nilos: Did it work earlier, or have you never got it to connect to your network? | 21:28 |
| trism | bullgard: if you were looking to activate it from the command line, you can use: gnome-screensaver-command -l; | 21:28 |
| zenlunatic | Hypnoz: i believe its an nfs share | 21:29 |
| Wormik | guntbert, this is not offtopic on russian version of channel. Is this talkings will be in other english language channel? | 21:29 |
| Hypnoz | zenlunatic: ya that would make sense | 21:29 |
| guntbert | Wormik: please read /topic | 21:29 |
| zenlunatic | Hypnoz: its saying device is busy | 21:29 |
| Nilos | harisund:I cannot get it to connect in anything but TLS | 21:30 |
| Hypnoz | zenlunatic: are you able to start the nfs mount again easily so you can unmount? | 21:30 |

| wunjo | ubuntu keeps on crashing on me and I can figure out why? is there any other way at looking at error logs I don't understand, any other program possible | 21:30 |
| Hypnoz | zenlunatic: I'm not sure otherwise, sometimes you have to restart. Hung NFS can cause big issues | 21:30 |
| wunjo | could someone please advise me | 21:30 |
| zenlunatic | Hypnoz: yeah i was just playinhg with nfs on a test box | 21:30 |
| Wormik | guntbert, there is so many channels... gb | 21:31 |
| ZykoticK9 | angel_linuxfreak, sorry no idea how you'd go about doing that sorry | 21:31 |
| KB1JWQ | wunjo: dmesg, cat /var/log/messages are good places to start. | 21:31 |
| Trek | wunjo: what are you doing prior to the crash | 21:31 |
| Hypnoz | zenlunatic: try re-enabling the nfs on the test box if you can, then umount on your system | 21:31 |
| angel_linuxfreak | ZykoticK9, np I am looking through the xterm man right now. Thanks | 21:31 |

| * york105 yawns and lazily heads to bed | 21:32 | |
| Trek | that might be the cause: mem overload possibly | 21:32 |
| Hypnoz | wunjo: tail /var/log/messages or tail /var/log/syslog | 21:32 |
| wunjo | I dont understand all the time what I am looking for in error logs and what to do with them once I see them | 21:32 |
| wunjo | very frustrating | 21:32 |
| Hypnoz | wunjo: you're looking for an error line around when the crash was that may have caused it | 21:33 |
| angel_linuxfreak | Anyone know what command to run an xterm terminal in the background or hidden? I made a start up program that requires it to be ran in xterm but I don't want the window to show up on startup. | 21:33 |
| Hypnoz | angel_linuxfreak: don't you put like a & at the end? | 21:33 |
| wunjo | which error log should I look at first? | 21:33 |
| r2q2 | How do I check out the ubuntu-docs | 21:33 |
| Hypnoz | angel_linuxfreak: "command &" | 21:33 |
| wunjo | which error log | 21:34 |
| zenlunatic | Hypnoz: i think thats for bash jobs only | 21:34 |
| wunjo | Hynoz | 21:34 |
| socket_77 | Yeah, I don't think he wants the xterm window to show at all | 21:34 |
| wunjo | there all kinds of log files | 21:34 |
| wunjo | Im in log viewer btw | 21:34 |
| blaynestorm | is there any purpose to splash screens? | 21:34 |
| angel_linuxfreak | Hypnoz, I don't, but I will try it. So with this command it would look like this? "xterm -x /home/angel/.config/pystromo/pystromo-remap.py -m /home/angel/.config/pystromo/default.map &" | 21:34 |

| New2LinuxGuy | Newbie question here. I have downloaded source code for application and I am trying to compile and install.

| DarkStar1 | damn I'll start again | 21:41 |
| claptrap | Hypnoz: Man, I always forget to mention I don't have a CD/DVD drive atm. :< | 21:42 |
| Out_Cold | claptrap: next time when you redo your partitions maybe look into LVMs | 21:42 |
| ori | azelphur, then what> | 21:42 |
| claptrap | Out_Cold: LVMs? | 21:42 |
| New2LinuxGuy | I started with locating a package in the repositories and then did an apt-get -d source and the name of the package. | 21:42 |
| Azelphur | ori then wait while it downloads...then play? | 21:42 |

| New2LinuxGuy | then I unzipped it which put it into its own directory. | 21:42 |
| New2LinuxGuy | from there the ./configure command said I had those two dependencies. | 21:42 |
| DarkStar1 | The "Allow only local" option in VNC, does that allow all users on the system to remote desktop in, or just the currently logged in USER? | 21:42 |

| ori | azelphur, lol i must be missing something... i can only run it through playonlinux | 21:43 |

| claptrap | Out_Cold: Well, I needa do SOMETHING. I've only got ~40 total GB on the main partition, and it's not very happy with me for that. | 21:44 |
| Azelphur | ori what's R.u.s.e? | 21:45 |
| trism | bullgard: so basically you need to execute it inside your gnome session (not from a virtual terminal) or set DISPLAY (and perhaps XAUTHORITY) correctly | 21:45 |
| Tapout | what app do you use to monitor the nic on ubuntu livecd? I don't have net access to install iptraf | 21:45 |

| airtonix | dupondje, i find listen to be neater than gmusicbrowser, but you'd need to turn on the directory browser plugin... gmusicbrowser allows you to use 'location' as one of the filters alongside genre,album,artist,etc | 22:17 |
| hal | swat is working now, but I had to reboot (don't really like not being able to manually do it) | 22:18 |
| Fudge | trying mount -t ufs -o ro,ufstype=ufs2 /dev/sdc /media.usb | 22:18 |
| Typos_King | hal: check VCoolio's line, I think -> sudo /etc/init.d/inetd restart; may do it <--- | 22:18 |
| Madwill | Typos_king i think its java_home for running TOMCAT | 22:18 |
| dupondje | airtonix: thx, lets try :) | 22:18 |
| Typos_King | hal: did you try that? if inetd is there, I think the 'restart' argument will get it rolling | 22:18 |
| VCoolio | Fudge: typo in the target folder /media.usb? | 22:19 |
| hal | Typos_King: no, there is no script with that name | 22:19 |
| airtonix | dupondje, yep let me know how it goes for you | 22:19 |
| dupondje | airtonix: also need to make sure it doesn't modify audio files / ID3 information :) | 22:19 |
| Typos_King | ... | 22:19 |
| airtonix | dupondje, neither of those two will do that (unlike default banshee) | 22:19 |
| Fudge | i jsutmade the folder and used tabcomp, error back says wrong fs type. im not sure, i have sdc and sdc1. the usb stick is 4gig and the image is only like small so not using the hole stick | 22:19 |
| kalesian | anyone have a Proliant here? | 22:20 |
| BigUrsis | Anyone good with networking have a good idea on how I could 1) access a single ip though eth0 (a nas) 2) the internet though eth1 (cellular connection) with the option of taking eth1 down and bringing up wlan0? All though network-manager | 22:20 |
| airtonix | dupondje, however for hassle free meta data editing while listening to music i like songbird. | 22:20 |
| Typos_King | hal: since you have no window manager.. how about installing -> sudo apt-get sysv-rc-conf; is a console bootup services utility, and you can stop/start/restart/remove any from there with just + or - presses | 22:20 |
| airtonix | BigUrsis, nm-applet doesnt support that | 22:21 |
| DarkStar1 | how do I create a new group again? | 22:21 |
| Fudge | VCoolio says wrong fs type, bad option or superblock | 22:21 |
| iustinian | newgrp | 22:21 |
| BigUrsis | airtonix, so set all the config manual with interface etc etc, is there still a way to let network manager manage wlan0 and still manualedit interface? | 22:22 |
| dupondje | hmz, installed listen, added directory, and now it sits there doing nothing :) | 22:22 |
| bullgard | [grub2, vga16fb] How can I select a smaller font in my virtual console? | 22:22 |
| hal | Typos_King: I have chkconfig, which i prefer. But it wasn't really that I didn't expect it to start on boot - but more that I didn't know how to start it without booting | 22:22 |
| econtomawesome | hi all! Does anyone know how to make turn a windows 7 iso into a bootable usb thingie for a netbook? | 22:22 |
| airtonix | BigUrsis, no. and unless you know how to do it manually i have no idea how to do such a thing. ( it would be very handy) | 22:22 |
| Trek | econtomawesome, that's kind of illegal | 22:22 |
| trinikrono | econtomawesome: use ubuntu! | 22:22 |
| iustinian | econtomawesome: there is a opensource tool on microsoft website | 22:23 |
| Typos_King | Madwill: java home? that will be a TOMCAT variable you have to set I gather.... anyway usually java home is at -> /usr/lib/jvm/java-X-sun-1.XXXXXX/bin on those XXX version number is where the java symlink to the binaries are | 22:23 |
| econtomawesome | iustinian do you know hte name? | 22:23 |
| econtomawesome | Trek bah. I bought a legal copy and won't use it on more than one machine anyway. | 22:23 |
| === ben___ is now known as Guest52717 | ||
| airtonix | econtomawesome, shouldnt you be asking this in #windows | 22:23 |
| VCoolio | bullgard: in grub menu, hit 'e' and put vga=773 behind the kernel line for 1024x768, google for other options | 22:24 |
| iustinian | econtomawesome: no but was in the news when they got it out | 22:24 |

| iustinian | econtomawesome: try googling for windows 7 usb creator smth | 22:24 |
| econtomawesome | airtonix I Use ubuntu for everything--it is the tool that I will be using to make such a tool | 22:24 |
| iustinian | u can replace windows with wine at any moment now | 22:25 |
| brandonc503 | isent there a conference mode that hides the joins and quits from chat text? | 22:25 |
| airtonix | econtomawesome, your question is not related to ubuntu. | 22:25 |
| dupondje | airtonix: I got 1 folder (with subfolders) added now into Listen, but it still orders by album name now ... | 22:25 |
| Losha | iustinian: if only that were true... | 22:25 |
| VCoolio | brandonc503: what client do you use? | 22:25 |
| brandonc503 | VCoolie: icechat | 22:25 |
| brandonc503 | thought it was a setting in the room, not client | 22:26 |
| VCoolio | brandonc503: never heard of; check the preferences | 22:26 |
| econtomawesome | airtonix I disagree-i will be using ubuntu to perform the task, ergo intimately related | 22:26 |
| VCoolio | brandonc503: no, the client does it | 22:26 |
| airtonix | econtomawesome, we also don't provide tips on how to run nightclubs better just becuase you happen to be using ubuntu. | 22:26 |
| iustinian | airtonix: lolz | 22:26 |
| airtonix | econtomawesome, you are asking a windows question, take it to #windows. | 22:26 |
| econtomawesome | airtonix that's fantastic. But you do provide tips on using ubuntu? | 22:26 |
| streamsi | hi | 22:27 |
| airtonix | econtomawesome, you're also asking a question that violates the windows eula. | 22:27 |

| FriedrichMan | hi there everyone! | 22:30 |
| harisund | !hi | FriedrichMan | 22:30 |
| ubottu | FriedrichMan: 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! | 22:30 |
| Typos_King | econtomawesome: may I ask...why you need win7 on a usb stick? anything wrong with the dvd? | 22:30 |
| FriedrichMan | thanks a lot for that | 22:30 |
| harisund | Typos_King: you need a USB stick if youare installing on machines that don't have an optical drive. Linux makes this easy, Windows doesn't | 22:30 |
| FriedrichMan | I have a question related to the Evolution mail client | 22:31 |
| Losha | econtomawesome: to add insult to injury, it's the top hit when you google 'windows 7 usb creator'... | 22:31 |
| iustinian | state the question not the fact u have one | 22:31 |
| bullgard | VCoolio: This does not change the resolution. | 22:31 |
| jrowe_ | help with deciding on graphics card | 22:31 |
| Typos_King | harisund: that's a good way .... though as an administrator.... I'd think you would be able to do it doing an external optical through usb | 22:31 |
| FriedrichMan | I wanted to know if it's possible to get som kind of script in order to have it sending the same mail to some mail addresses but not on cc... but like in a loop | 22:31 |
| econtomawesome | Typos_King I use a netbook--no optical drive | 22:32 |
| FriedrichMan | I am sorry for my english, I am spanish speaking | 22:32 |
| econtomawesome | Losha I've been googling all day for this--all good | 22:32 |
| eremite | FriedrichMan: do you men a constant spam bot? | 22:32 |
| harisund | Typos_King: Not everyone has an external optical drive. USB disks are easy to come by, external disk drives aren't but anyway that's besides the point, econtomawesome is asking in the wrong channel | 22:32 |
| eremite | !es | FriedrichMan | 22:32 |
| ubottu | FriedrichMan: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. | 22:32 |
| DarthPuff | is there a command i can run to return all extensions in a directory and its subdirectories? | 22:32 |
| iustinian | FriedrichMan: I use mailman for that, apache server, postfix email server mailman is a cgi app | 22:32 |
| VCoolio | bullgard: sry, only thing I could think off; made a difference for me | 22:32 |
| eremite | DarthPuff: ls -R | 22:32 |
| DarkStar1 | where is my alias file stored? | 22:32 |
| Typos_King | econtomawesome: if your netbook didn't come with win7.... does it come with a backup partition? | 22:33 |
| harisund | DarkStar1: What do you mean alias file? | 22:33 |
| iustinian | DarkStar1: /etc/aliasses | 22:33 |
| DarthPuff | eremite: thank you | 22:33 |
| FriedrichMan | theres the possibility of using scripts on evolution | 22:33 |
| bullgard | VCoolio: Thank you, anyway. | 22:33 |
| apacheBi | anyone know if its possible to get flash working on a live boot distro? | 22:33 |
| FriedrichMan | you add it from preferences | 22:33 |
| Typos_King | econtomawesome: ... either way.. you can always just rent an external dvd drive :) | 22:33 |
| econtomawesome | Typos_King overwritten when I put Ubuntu on | 22:33 |
| harisund | apacheBi: The same way you would get it to work n a regular install | 22:33 |
| DarkStar1 | sorry I meant the file that allows me to configure my shell environment variables such as command line aliases | 22:33 |
| apacheBi | harisund, thanks....having trouble any hints? | 22:34 |
| Losha | DarkStar1: usually ~/.bashrc | 22:34 |
| harisund | DarkStar1: It could be in /etc/aliases but sometimes they are sourced from ~/.bashrc too | 22:34 |
| apacheBi | green green newbie here!! | 22:34 |
| Typos_King | econtomawesome: have you contacted Microsoft to explain that you had a legal copy of win7 and you needed back in your netbook? what did they provide? | 22:34 |
| harisund | apacheBi: How did you go about it? | 22:34 |
| FriedrichMan | eremite: and I guess it might be something like a spam bot... but with purposes that are not annoying | 22:34 |
| JimmyNeutron | /etc/alias is for everyone | 22:34 |
| econtomawesome | Typos_King no I have not | 22:34 |
| JimmyNeutron | ~/.bashrc is for that user only | 22:34 |
| Losha | harisund: Unless things have changed mighily, /etc/aliases is for email aliases, not bash aliases... | 22:34 |
| kavurt | my computer cannot see ethernet. i use usb connection. how can i fix it? | 22:35 |
| harisund | Losha: oh ok someone above mentiond it I just followed along :D | 22:35 |
| iustinian | for bash aliasses u could use symlinks | 22:35 |
| Typos_King | econtomawesome: they may just have a usb solution already :).... I know there's an usb XP | 22:35 |
| FriedrichMan | for example if I wanna use it to send a newsletter to my friends or something like that | 22:35 |
| DarkStar1 | thanks guys. If I remember editing one makes it system wide and the ~./bashrc is limited to just the user.. right? | 22:35 |
| eremite | FriedrichMan: please do not ask for bot scripts in here. This is a support channel. Please visit #ubuntu-offtopic | 22:35 |
| Zellous | I cannot get my Wireless LAN card to work with a Karmic Koala Live USB. I can post the results of the terminal command "sudo lshw" in the pastebin | 22:35 |
| econtomawesome | Typos_King for some reason Wine is working with it now--wasn't working earlier | 22:35 |
| DarthPuff | while doing ls -R is there a way to grep to exclude files with a certain file type? | 22:35 |
| smerz | kavurt, you can't get ethernet to work correct? | 22:35 |
| JimmyNeutron | DarkStar1, yeap...~/.bashrc is for the user only | 22:35 |
| === fsb is now known as vrxchk | ||
| harisund | DarkStar1: You could do ls -R | grep -v *.extension I think | 22:35 |
| kavurt | smerz: yes | 22:36 |
| iustinian | Zellous: try to load windows drivers in ndsiwrapper | 22:36 |
| Typos_King | econtomawesome: furthermore... where did you get that dvd you're trying to use :P, doesn't sound very legal, at least no up to MS EULA | 22:36 |
| FriedrichMan | ok, sorry if I disturbed | 22:36 |
| harisund | err DarthPuff you could do ls -R | grep -v *.extension | 22:36 |
| apacheBi | been trying to type some commands in terminal as suggested in some forums but am on lbuntu live distro | 22:36 |
| FriedrichMan | I though it counted as evolution support | 22:36 |
| smerz | kavurt, could you please give the output of "ifconfig" | 22:36 |
| Losha | DarkStar1: system wide aliases usually go in /etc/bashrc. That only works if every users .bashrc sources /etc/bashrc... | 22:36 |
| smerz | !paste | 22:36 |

| smerz | kavurt, use http://paste.ubuntu.com please | 22:36 |
| eremite | DarthPuff: do you have access to a GUI? Just use the search utility that came with your distro and search for the specific file extension you need. A complete list of files on your system should show up. | 22:36 |
| domjohnson | Hello - Has anyone here ever used ImageWriter? | 22:36 |
| Losha | DarkStar1: users -> user's | 22:36 |
| Zellous | Iustinian: What is ndsiwrapper? | 22:36 |
| domjohnson | or USB-imagewriter? | 22:36 |
| mcurran | Anyone know what I can check to get my mic working, External plug by speaker input | 22:37 |
| DarthPuff | eremite: the thing is i want to search for for files that aren't a certain extension | 22:37 |
| iustinian | Zellous: ndiswrapper is a utility allowing you to load windows drivers in order to use your wirells addapter | 22:37 |
| DarkStar1 | Losha: thanks | 22:37 |
| harisund | DarkStar1: You could do a find . and then do a inverse grep | 22:37 |
| iustinian | Zellous: on linux | 22:37 |
| Losha | DarkStar1: come back if it doesn't work... | 22:37 |
| DarthPuff | harisund: is there such thing as an inverse grep? | 22:37 |
| harisund | eh sorry I meant grep -v | 22:38 |
| DarkStar1 | harisund: ... 0_o? huh? | 22:38 |
| Typos_King | econtomawesome: so you paid $200 roughly about the same as your netbook, for a copy of vista to the Campus store? | 22:38 |
| iustinian | Zellous: we need more info on the chip the adapter is using also | 22:38 |
| smerz | kavurt, just to be sure you need to run that command in a terminal. You find one under Applications -> accessoires -> terminal | 22:38 |
| harisund | DarkStar1: that was not meannt for you sorry :P | 22:38 |
| mcurran | ndiswrapper will not support injection! | 22:38 |
| ukebane | harisund: you mean so it doesn't show whatever you put in the grep? | 22:38 |
| kavurt | smerz: http://paste.ubuntu.com/400821/ | 22:38 |
| brandonc503 | can i see all the stuff i apt-get to remove it without reinstalling os? | 22:38 |
| Zellous | Iustinian: I'll post it in the pastebin | 22:38 |
| Typos_King | no vista, win7 rather | 22:38 |
| brandonc503 | linux sys | 22:38 |
| iustinian | mcurran: nor monitoring | 22:38 |
| DarthPuff | harisund: the inverse grep is not working the way i want it to :\... i just man grep. | 22:38 |
| mcurran | yeah, which means = useless | 22:38 |
| smerz | kavurt, you have wlan (wireless lan adapter) and a normal network card (eth1). | 22:39 |
| iustinian | mcurran: not everybody wants to inject ivs | 22:39 |
| harisund | DarthPuff: For example? Can you use pastebin or something to show what you have in mind? | 22:39 |
| mcurran | then they shouldn't be using computers | 22:39 |
| mcurran | :) | 22:39 |
| econtomawesome | Typos_King no. Dang cheap at the campus store. | 22:39 |
| smerz | kavurt, eth1 should be your LAN adapter correct? (in other words you only have 1 network card correct? ) | 22:39 |
| DarkStar1 | what's the terminal command for finiding out my ubuntu version? | 22:39 |
| econtomawesome | Typos_King no. Roughly $30 | 22:39 |
| mcurran | noone has any clue about setting up mic | 22:39 |
| Myrtti | DarkStar1: lsb_release -a | 22:39 |
| DarthPuff | harisund: when i type in ls -R | grep -v *.pdf it returns 2 pdf files when it should be returning a bunch of .doc files | 22:39 |
| DarkStar1 | Myrtti: thanks | 22:39 |
| iustinian | mcurran: i have a lousy rt2500 which barelly works in monitor monochannel mode | 22:40 |
| JimmyNeutron | brandonc503, apt-get -s <argument> | 22:40 |
| Losha | mcurran: sound is one of the more difficult parts of setting up Linux... | 22:40 |
| airtonix | !who | mcurran | 22:40 |
| ubottu | mcurran: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 22:40 |
| mcurran | yeah, I know | 22:40 |
| JimmyNeutron | it wont do anything other than show you what WILL happen if you remove the -s | 22:40 |
| znh | mm does anyone know a script that prints a randomly chosen file from a specified directory? | 22:40 |
| kavurt | smerz: i think eth1 is usb. because my ethernet cable is not plugged in right now. | 22:40 |
| ukebane | harisund: try grep -v | 22:40 |
| mcurran | wrong syntax airtonix you idiot | 22:40 |
| harisund | DarkStar1: ah interesting one second | 22:40 |
| harisund | ukebane: That's what I suggested DarthPuff but it is not working for him apparently | 22:40 |
| Typos_King | econtomawesome: gimme a few secs | 22:40 |
| kavurt | smerz: yes only one network card | 22:40 |
| mhh | irc.freenode.net | 22:41 |
| Zellous | Iustinian: http://paste.ubuntu.com/400822/ | 22:41 |
| Losha | znh: you would write a script to do it. But why would you want to? | 22:41 |
| DarthPuff | harisund: i'm just going to manually go through and look :*( | 22:41 |
| harisund | DarthPuff: one second | 22:41 |
| ukebane | harisund: well I just tested it looking for something and excluding it, worked fine | 22:41 |
| smerz | kavurt, please go to www.whatismyip.com. Does it say 24.224.234.56 is your IP addr? | 22:41 |
| ukebane | harisund: maybe it just doesn't work on extensions? | 22:41 |
| znh | Losha, well I have these video files.. but I can't decide which one to play | 22:41 |
| harisund | ukebane: don't tell me, tell DarthPuff | 22:41 |
| iustinian | Zellous: geez never heard about that | 22:42 |
| kavurt | smerz: yes | 22:42 |
| smerz | kavurt, ok I assume it will say that. | 22:42 |
| ukebane | harisund: my bad ;) | 22:42 |
| DarthPuff | ukebane: i saw | 22:42 |
| smerz | kavurt, could you please open /etc/network/interfaces and paste it's content please | 22:42 |
| iustinian | Zellous: maybe ur lucky and it is using some known chipset | 22:42 |
| Zellous | Iustinian: I looked it up on google. I heard that I need to use the ndsiwrapper you were talking about. | 22:43 |
| DarthPuff | i'm pruning my eBook collection to only have iphone/ipad supported extensions | 22:43 |
| harisund | DarthPuff: cut the *, just do a .pdf , rather grep -v .pdf | 22:43 |
| iustinian | Zellous: u are pretty stuck with ndiwrapper indeed | 22:43 |
| MatBoy | anyone using hylafax on ubuntu ? I can't see anything in my queue | 22:43 |
| DarthPuff | harisund: ok | 22:43 |
| harisund | DarthPuff: I believe * on Bash does something else that you don't want to | 22:43 |
| eremite | DarthPuff: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/linux-programming-scripting/66523-how-do-you-exclude-files-find-command.html page will not fully load for me, but if it does for you it shoudl have your answer. | 22:43 |
| iustinian | Zellous: ndiswrapper even | 22:43 |
| DarthPuff | harisund: thanks, that worked | 22:43 |
| DarthPuff | eremite: harisund solved my problem | 22:43 |
| DarthPuff | eremite: thanks though | 22:44 |
| eremite | good | 22:44 |
| ukebane | DarthPuff: I found it, you have to surround the extension with pipes, so grep -v *|.pdf| | 22:44 |

| Losha | eremite: plugin problem? | 22:45 |

| DarthPuff | eremite: i mean to autofind and remove them | 22:46 |
| Kre10s | smerz: Ah... so how do i know what "my" key is? | 22:46 |
| iustinian | P-NuT: is there a special evolution frontend for netboos ? | 22:46 |

| Fresh | When your running a headless server is there a way to have to programs running at the ssame time? | 22:46 |
| smerz | Kre10s, 727D031129047922 is the key you need | 22:46 |
| harisund | Fresh: What do you mean same time? What kind of programs are you running? | 22:47 |
| iustinian | Fresh: use screen | 22:47 |
| Kre10s | ah. i get iy. | 22:47 |
| smerz | kavurt, has this ever worked before for you. or is this your first attempt using ubuntu? | 22:47 |
| iustinian | Fresh: man screen | 22:47 |
| Fresh | okay thanks | 22:47 |
| P-NuT | iustinian: Yes there is, it's called anjal | 22:47 |
| P-NuT | apt-cache search anjal | 22:47 |
| P-NuT | that's the one | 22:47 |
| eremite | DarthPuff: find the default size of an empty folder and then do a search for all files on yoru system with the search utility, then place them inorder largest to smallest and all folders with the estimated size should be empty? I know, its a poor-man's work around but it should help clearing some of the leftover bloat. | 22:47 |
| Losha | DarthPuff: there is a cheat for this: find . -type d -exec rmdir '{}' \; will find all empty directories and remove them. It relies on the fact that rmdir fails on non-empty directories, so expect lots of spurious error messages... | 22:47 |
| vrxchk | just supply -empty to skip over non empty dirs | 22:48 |
| kavurt | smerz: i have been using ubuntu for some time. but this computer is new. and it's the first time i face ethernet problem ever | 22:48 |
| Typos_King | econtomawesome: http://pastebin.ca/1851924 <--- the first 2 links there, should do just fine, they all mention about using the .iso and mounting it.... I've done it with a booted DOS partition for xp, with just he i386 folder off the cd, and yes, the file you need to run is 'setup' or setup.exe to start the install | 22:48 |
| iustinian | P-NuT: if the problem doesnt appear on regular evolution frontend maybe u need to address the bug to anjal developers | 22:48 |
| P-NuT | Sure, | 22:48 |
| DarthPuff | Losha: thanks | 22:48 |
| DarthPuff | that wraps it up | 22:48 |
| DarthPuff | later | 22:48 |
| P-NuT | but I was wondering if anyone else had the issue | 22:48 |
| moosekaka | i have installed samba package, made sure my workgroup name is same as windows, but when i go to win 7 i cannot see my linux machine | 22:48 |
| smerz | kavurt, so it worked before correct? | 22:48 |
| eremite | Losha: how safe is that find . -type d -exec rmdir '{}' \; | 22:48 |
| kavurt | smerz: not on this computer | 22:49 |
| iustinian | moosekaka: try to check if nmbd is running | 22:49 |

| manster | hey guys how can i get my laptop webcam working with karmic | 22:49 |
| smerz | kavurt, do you know the ethernet card type model or something? | 22:49 |
| manster | the easiest way | 22:49 |
| Elive_user58_en | I tried Lubuntu, it works | 22:49 |
| eremite | Losha: will that rm hidden folders too? | 22:49 |
| manster | my cam was working fine with cheese before | 22:49 |

| manster | was hoping there would be a simpler way | 22:50 |
| Typos_King | kavurt: have you checke the manufacturer's site for the NIC for any drivers? usually they'd have if any needed or not needed, which most times you don't | 22:50 |
| Elive_user58_en | Can Lubuntu use Wubi? i did not see it | 22:50 |
| smerz | kavurt, ethernet beeing plugged in or not does not make a difference. Ubuntu doesn't auto recognize your card by the looks of it. | 22:50 |
| moosekaka | ubutom: yes...windows says error network path not found | 22:51 |
| smerz | kavurt, it's a fresh install correct? | 22:51 |

| snow_ru | Typos_King, what is it ? | 22:52 |
| smerz | kavurt, hmm i have 2 suggestions to troubleshoot this. 1 reboot with cable plugged (if you haven't done this already). 2nd try it with karmic live CD. If it doesn't work you could try ubuntu lucid beta see if that recognizes it | 22:52 |
| snow_ru | Typos_King, you meant in open office ? | 22:52 |
| Typos_King | snow_ru there are others... I think textmaker has one too | 22:52 |
| Elive_user58_en | So when is Lucid coming | 22:52 |

| iustinian | moosekaka: but if you dont have access by IP could be something else | 22:53 |
| Losha | eremite: in general, it's safe if you do it starting from /home/user. I wouldn't do it anywhere else. Frankly, unless you've done something special that's left you with a very large number of empty directories, I'm not sure it's worth the risk to try and delete them... | 22:53 |

| Elive_user58_en | What is the best ip for router/modem? 192.168.1.2 ? | 22:55 |
| USS | I dunno, it doesn't have to be actual music, just noise | 22:56 |

| enthdegree | Hey, for some reason I can't uninstall a package on ubuntu. Dpkg gives me an error about rm not being able to remove some locale because it doesn't exist. | 23:11 |
| iustinian | moosekaka: maybe winscp in windows and a ssh server on ubuntu | 23:11 |
| Seveas | enthdegree, pastebin the complete output | 23:11 |
| Elive_user514 | Fuzion24 i just read yesterday about ubuntu grub2 | 23:12 |
| Fuzion24 | thing is ... grub has a background now ... and its pretty.. but ubuntu will not boot | 23:12 |
| patryk_ | test | 23:12 |
| Fuzion24 | shift did not work while boot | 23:12 |
| iustinian | test failed | 23:12 |
| Elive_user514 | Fuzion yeah it's like a uuid thing | 23:12 |
| smerz | kavurt, good question. It looks like for the moment they want to release lucid using 2.6.32 | 23:12 |
| smerz | kavurt, thats the impression i got | 23:12 |
| Fuzion24 | Elive_user514, can you elaborate? | 23:13 |
| smerz | kavurt, you could compile a 2.6.33 kernel | 23:13 |
| moosekaka | ok iustinian many thanks again seems now the linux machine shows up in my windows network as 192.168.0.11 with all the shared folders......only thing is that actually my linux machine name is really moosekaka-laptop | 23:13 |
| kavurt | smerz: thanks | 23:13 |
| moosekaka | is there a way to get win 7 to display the laptop name? | 23:13 |
| drummer2207 | Hello | 23:13 |
| iustinian | moosekaka: it doesnt matter it is just a name :D and your welcome | 23:14 |
| drummer2207 | Whats up? | 23:14 |
| Typos_King | Fuzion24: what if you just redo the grub.cfg file? sudo update-grub; just don't forget to back up the old grub.cfg because you can refer to it to put back the theme | 23:14 |
| h4f | Hi all. | 23:14 |
| grendal_prime | ok I have a list cve's for like php exploits. Where can i get a list of which ones of these has been delt with? | 23:14 |
| Fuzion24 | I cant boot into linux... | 23:14 |
| smerz | kavurt, run the updater maybe 2.6.33 is in the repositories | 23:14 |
| iustinian | grendal_prime: secunia maybe | 23:14 |
| Fuzion24 | because there is no grub.conf... I tried using the live cd | 23:14 |
| Typos_King | drummer2207: ceiling, gaseous blobs, stratosphere :P | 23:14 |
| kavurt | smerz: ok | 23:14 |
| Fuzion24 | but i have no way to update-grub | 23:14 |
| Typos_King | Fuzion24: gimme a sec | 23:14 |
| moosekaka | now i have ONe more question...im trying to change my prompt in bash.bashrc....i tried change the PS1 variable in bash.bashrc but nothing happens | 23:15 |
| smerz | kavurt, otherwise download the kernel package. some folks have made a package for it | 23:15 |
| smerz | kavurt, look here: http://www.khattam.info/2010/02/06/installing-kernel-2-6-33-to-lucid-lynx-ubuntu-10-04-without-compiling/ | 23:15 |
| Slart | smerz: lucid discussion in #ubuntu+1, please | 23:15 |
| kavurt | smerz: nice. thank you | 23:16 |
| smerz | Slart, yeah we're finished now :) but you are right of course | 23:16 |
| Slart | smerz: =) | 23:16 |
| Typos_King | Fuzion24: boot with the live-cd and -> http://pastebin.ca/1849832 <-- skip the winxp part there, unless you do have a windows partition and need it in the menu too :) | 23:16 |
| bastid_raZor | moosekaka: i actually had to change mine in /etc/bash.bashrc which is not the recommended way. but it did work. | 23:16 |
| smerz | Slart, lucid was mentioned rather late in the discussion :) | 23:16 |
| kavurt | Slart: it's not really a lucid discussion. it's an ethernet problem :) | 23:16 |
| moosekaka | yes im trying to do that but nothing happens | 23:16 |
| Typos_King | Fuzion24: bear in mind, you may want to back up your old grub.cfg, which I think is there, to refer to put your theme back in | 23:17 |
| Slart | smerz, kavurt: mm.. I tried to remain silent.. but you just kept going on and on =) | 23:17 |
| bastid_raZor | moosekaka: you need to open a new terminal in order for the changes to take effect iirc | 23:17 |
| smerz | kavurt, but for the record. non stable release problems should be discussed in #ubuntu+1. He's right. So just for the record and next time %) | 23:17 |
| moosekaka | yes the problem is that when i open a new terminal nothing happens | 23:17 |
| pfifo | dose anyone here have a wacom intuos tablet? | 23:17 |
| klepty | is there a way that I can use squid and ssh to make a encrypted proxy on my local ubuntu box? | 23:18 |
| drummer2207 | nope | 23:18 |
| kavurt | smerz: Slart, ok. thans. i've gone | 23:18 |
| smerz | Slart, well our apologies then :) | 23:18 |
| moosekaka | here is what i try to do : PS1='${debian_chroot:+($debian_chroot)}\$ ' | 23:18 |
| harisund | pfifo: I don't have that, but I have a wacom enabled tablet PC | 23:18 |
| moosekaka | when open a new terminal bash still shows the default username@hostname | 23:18 |
| iustinian | klepty: define encrypted proxy | 23:18 |
| pfifo | harisund, not exactly what im looking for but thanks | 23:18 |
| smerz | kavurt, no need to run :) And I hope I could help :) Good luck | 23:18 |
| ischliky | are there any options for the gnome taskbar panel so that i can set the minimum width to be more then default? in the past ive had it take up the whole width of the taskbar | 23:18 |
| harisund | What are you looking for? Someone else might be able to help (might, that's all) | 23:19 |
| klepty | iustinian: well forwarding http traffic through ssh | 23:19 |
| thon0925 | I'm running the 10.04 beta and an update seemed to replace grub-legacy with grub2, which crashes and causes a reboot-loop (on RAID0), how can I get frub-legacy back? | 23:19 |
| ubutom | any application that recognizes wacom tablets? | 23:19 |

| bastid_raZor | moosekaka: you need to put export before PS1 | 23:19 |
| moosekaka | basically i just want my bash prompt to show the ~$ | 23:20 |
| ubutom | I mean with pressure sensitivity and so on, without having to manually edit xorg.conf? | 23:20 |
| moosekaka | export? eg? | 23:20 |

| harisund | hdtdi: not exactly a quesiton to ask on #ubuntu but yes you can | 23:20 |
| ubutom | k, thanks harisund | 23:20 |
| Typos_King | metalf8801: I'd think under ~ some folder for it | 23:21 |
| metalf8801 | Typos_King ok | 23:22 |
| h4f | I have upgradet to Beta. Where is the new Gnome Look ? how do I change back pidgin font size ? | 23:22 |
| smerz | kavurt, I sent you a private message. Just to be on the safe side and to avoid a potential pitfall | 23:22 |
| moosekaka | umm no good | 23:22 |
| Typos_King | hdtdi: that's the sole purpose of the virtual environment, so yes | 23:22 |
| iflema | metalf8801 theres a folder named .purple in your home directory.... its a hidden folder...... | 23:22 |
| bastid_raZor | h4f: join #ubuntu+1 for lucid|10.04 | 23:22 |
| moosekaka | still dont work....basically the default prompt refuses to change | 23:22 |
| hdtdi | thanks | 23:23 |
| metalf8801 | iflema ok thank you | 23:23 |
| moosekaka | is there some other profile that is overiding the bash.bashrc? | 23:23 |
| metalf8801 | I had been looking for a folder called pidgin | 23:24 |
| smerz | metalf8801, ~/.purple/logs | 23:26 |
| natediddy | is there anywhere that I can get plugins/updates for things like Check Gmail and/or Wine, Amarok, etc.? | 23:28 |
| metalf8801 | smerz thank you I found it :) | 23:28 |
| smerz | moosekaka, you mean ".bashrc" file right? | 23:28 |
| natediddy | i tried to install those and they all failed with "apt-get errors" | 23:28 |
| ubutom | natediddy, tehre are several apps for checking gmail in the repository | 23:28 |
| natediddy | ok | 23:28 |
| smerz | natediddy http://code.google.com/p/gnome-gmail-notifier/wiki/About | 23:29 |
| ubutom | just do a search for them in software center natediddy | 23:29 |
| smerz | for gmail | 23:29 |
| natediddy | ok thanx | 23:29 |
| smerz | yeh maybe even in the rpository. i'd suggest following ubutom's suggestion first :) | 23:29 |
| moosekaka | yes | 23:29 |
| Typos_King | .. | 23:29 |
| perryarmstrong | has anyone here worked with QccPack...i need some serious help | 23:29 |
| Typos_King | natediddy: have you done an -> sudo apt-get update; yet? | 23:29 |
| ubutom | :) smerz stumbled upon them while browsing for useful apps | 23:29 |
| moosekaka | i made sure i uncommented the 'fancy prompt line' in the bash.bashrc file | 23:30 |
| natediddy | Typos_King, yes i have | 23:30 |
| moosekaka | and made changes but nothing happens prompt is still username@hostname | 23:30 |
| Typos_King | natediddy: what error is apt-get giving you? can you paste it in a pastebin? | 23:30 |
| moosekaka | theere is a comment in .bashrc saying # set a fancy prompt (non-color, overwrite the one in /etc/profile) | 23:31 |
| natediddy | nah i already closed out terminal :/ | 23:31 |
| Neezer | I am finally backing up my music right now with rsync. It is taking a long time! If I do this every day will it always take this long? | 23:31 |
| smerz | moosekaka, i dunno. Don't know it at the top of my head | 23:31 |
| moosekaka | but when i checked the /etc there is not profile | 23:31 |
| natediddy | didnt think of that | 23:31 |
| smerz | Neezer, where are you backing it up to? | 23:31 |
| Pirate_Hunter | is there any point encrypting the disk on a new install (desktop) | 23:31 |
| perryarmstrong | has anyone here worked with QccPack...i need some serious help | 23:32 |
| Neezer | the music is on my server, but I got a 1TB drive that I'll put my music, movies, and pictures on as backup. it is a usb drive. | 23:32 |
| smerz | Pirate_Hunter, the root filesystem "/" no. /home well maybe ;-) It depends | 23:32 |
| moosekaka | should i put the bashrc file in /etc/profile? | 23:32 |
| Neezer | sorry smerz, I did't use your name before. | 23:32 |
| smerz | moosekaka, it should be in your home directory | 23:32 |
| smerz | Neezer, so your backup does from the server directly to the usb drive? or via ethernet or something? | 23:33 |
| iustinian | Pirate_Hunter: for a desktop, you could use truecrypt for couple of sensitive directories | 23:33 |
| Emanon | ok heres a weird one i have had 3 drives fail in the last 2 or 3 months across 3 separate os's in 3 separate rooms, not just start throwing errors actually cease being detectable any ideas? | 23:33 |
| EnigmaticCoder | is gmail down (after logging in)? | 23:33 |
| Emanon | on 3 separate computers as well | 23:33 |
| Neezer | smerz, directly to the drive from the server. The USB drive is connected to the server. | 23:33 |
| Pirate_Hunter | smerz, im trying to figure out what benefit encrypting will have the only I can find is if the disk gets stolen but for me that aint going to happen any time soon | 23:33 |
| iustinian | Emanon: try checking your electric supply | 23:33 |
| smerz | Neezer, well then rsync should give you max performance. | 23:34 |
| Emanon | all on different computers iustinian | 23:34 |
| gyles19 | I have a Thinkpad SL510 with a dvd/cdrom drive which refuses to write discs of any flavor. I've searched the forums and the bug reports and can't find anything that got responses. Can you point me some place I can find help with this drive? | 23:34 |
| Emanon | all with separate surge protectors | 23:34 |
| iustinian | gyles19: drive firmware update maybe | 23:34 |
| perryarmstrong | has anyone here worked with QccPack...i need some serious help | 23:34 |
| Emanon | one on ubuntu 9.10 one on vista and one on windowse mce | 23:34 |
| Emanon | and 3 different drive types across 2 different manufacturers | 23:35 |
| Emanon | one maxtor 2 seagates | 23:35 |
| iustinian | Emanon: that is pdd | 23:35 |
| iustinian | odd i mean | 23:35 |
| Emanon | yea | 23:35 |
| arielCo | Hello everyone! I'll shoot right away: I just got an error from the Update Manager about as new version of nvidia-settings_195 trying to overwrite a file "which is also in package nvidia-glx-195". It's just the nVidia logo, but it blocks the installation. The file is not present in the current version of nvidia-settings. | 23:35 |
| Typos_King | Emanon: that just means you've been buying El Cheapo brand hd's :P~ | 23:35 |
| smerz | Pirate_Hunter well if you loose your laptop the home drive with your data will be protected. So it's up to you. Do you need it? We can't answer that for you | 23:35 |
| Pirate_Hunter | iustinian, based upon my previous post to smerz I am thinking on the lines of encryption on the disk that makes it harder for new users to check directories except for their own i.e. ls would show no results outside their directory but I aint sure if that is possible and if it is I bet it is a hassle to pull off | 23:35 |
| Emanon | nope typo | 23:35 |
| Neezer | smerz, I have 80 GB of music though....how long would that take? is is usb 2.0, and I used the compression tag too, but I forget which one it was. | 23:35 |
| smerz | Pirate_Hunter, you don;t need encryption for that | 23:35 |
| Emanon | one came in an alienware one in an xps one year older | 23:36 |
| smerz | Neezer, i'll calc it in a sec | 23:36 |
| arielCo | /usr/share/pixmaps/nvidia-settings.png | 23:36 |
| Emanon | and one in my personal computer with barracudas iirc | 23:36 |
| Typos_King | Emanon: you know HDs have one 1year of manufacturer's warranty? | 23:36 |
| Pirate_Hunter | smerz, I don't? Than what do I need? | 23:36 |
| Emanon | all different age drives | 23:36 |
| smerz | Pirate_Hunter, to lock users into their respective home directories is default behaviour. Only superuser/root can access other users folders | 23:36 |
| Emanon | within 2 or 3 months of eachother | 23:36 |
| Neezer | smerz, it was -azvv for the tag. | 23:36 |
| digii | ubuntu just destroyed my life, holy | 23:36 |
| DarkStar1 | how do I run phpsysinfo? | 23:36 |
| deanus | Sadly, ubuntu by default doesnt stop other users reading other users files.. | 23:37 |
| Typos_King | Emanon: sounds like something is funky in your hardware then | 23:37 |
| smerz | Neezer, a full copy assuming 40mb/s write (which could be an optimistic estimation) takes around 34 minutes | 23:37 |
| iustinian | !troll ! digii | 23:37 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 23:37 |
| metbsd | this distro has so many ppl, why | 23:37 |
| metbsd | what's special about ubuntu | 23:37 |
| eremite | metbsd: IT WORKS. | 23:38 |
| SysTeck | DarkStar1, look at sourceforge | 23:38 |
| Slart | metbsd: easy to use? check ubuntu.com.. I'm sure they list a lot of reasons there =) | 23:38 |
| metbsd | no it doesn't | 23:38 |
| Typos_King | deanus: doesn't stop you from setting permissions on your folders and files either | 23:38 |
| Pirate_Hunter | smerz, I eman lock them pernantle so that they can't even see the file or folders in /, /* on this comp im the only user but the last system allowed me to browse the filesystem I wish for users no to do that not even to know what directory in / they are browsing | 23:38 |
| eremite | metbsd: I disagree. I never had problems. | 23:38 |
| Neezer | oh.....I don't think i'm going near that fast.....oh well. no hurry. thanks smerz, if i understand correctly, the next time I do it, it will only check for differences and then sync the folders so it should be a lot faster. | 23:38 |
| Emanon | so i know it isnt the drive specifically (since it was 3 different models and 2 separate manufacturers) not the computer itself (3 separate computers on 2 different OEMS) not the os (3 different os) not the circuit they're all on different ones in different rooms and all on surge protectors im lost for a solution | 23:39 |
| deanus | Typos_King, you shouldnt have to... might as well make the whole fs world readable... /home stuff is more important..(to the user) | 23:39 |
| Slart | metbsd: do you have a support question about ubuntu? | 23:39 |
| toyman61 | No sound available! Freshly installed Ubuntu 9.10 on PC-HW.. Sound OK on PC. | 23:39 |
| smerz | Neezer, yes incremental backups are a live saver. If you have a gui on your server I would recommend "sbackup". simple easy and works | 23:39 |
| bazhang | metbsd, chat in #ubuntu-offtopic | 23:39 |
| iustinian | Emanon: try to check the temperature readings in SMART | 23:39 |
| eremite | toyman61: open alasamixer and turn up yoru volume | 23:39 |
| iustinian | Emanon: maybe ventilation issues | 23:39 |
| metbsd | is mint same as ubuntu? | 23:39 |
| Typos_King | deanus: so change your ~ umask, it doesn't take that much to do so | 23:39 |
| grendal_prime | grrrrr | 23:40 |
| eremite | metbsd: no | 23:40 |
| smerz | Pirate_Hunter, what is the reason for users not to be able to browse "/" ? There is nothing wrong with that | 23:40 |
| Slart | Neezer: "Back in time" is also very nice.. | 23:40 |
| toyman61 | eremite: In terminal-window ? | 23:40 |
| bazhang | metbsd, do you have an actual support question? | 23:40 |
| eremite | toyman61: yes | 23:40 |
| deanus | Typos_King, no it doesnt... tell that to ubuntu. | 23:40 |
| Emanon | xps and alienware had really good cooling this less so but well within operational limits | 23:40 |
| grendal_prime | i could have sworn there was a site that showed cve patches and when there were delt with | 23:40 |
| Typos_King | deanus: maybe they let the choice up to you :P~ | 23:40 |
| Emanon | they are in the same house and on the same router but that is the only thing they have in common | 23:41 |
| iustinian | Emanon: vibrations, try reading the SMART registers anyway | 23:41 |
| Pirate_Hunter | smerz, sense of security but in this case I personally wish not to allow it due to the type of environment on this machine, is there a way to do this? | 23:41 |
| Slart | smerz: regular users can browse / you have read permissions afaik | 23:41 |
| deanus | Typos_King, why not forget about permissions, leave it upto you... | 23:41 |
| smerz | Pirate_Hunter, I'm afraid not. | 23:41 |
| smerz | Slart, i know | 23:41 |
| Emanon | iustinian, got a command for me (ill have to turn on smart in the bios) but for when i do | 23:41 |
| Slart | smerz: oh.. sorry.. nevermind me | 23:41 |
| smerz | Pirate_Hunter, if a user would not have access to read outside his home directory he cannot use the computer | 23:41 |
| smerz | Slart, n.p. | 23:41 |
| DarkStar1 | Hi. what's the quickest way to start sysinfo?? I have it installed and never used it before | 23:41 |
| iustinian | Pirate_Hunter: u could lock every user in a separate virtul machine | 23:41 |
| iustinian | Emanon: smartctl -a /dev/sda | 23:42 |
| Emanon | thanks iustinian | 23:42 |
| metbsd | what's diff between ubuntu and mint | 23:42 |
| bazhang | !ot > metbsd | 23:42 |
| ubottu | metbsd, please see my private message | 23:42 |
| === cozziemoto is now known as booboo | ||
| ubutom | the taste? :P | 23:42 |
| Emanon | mint has certain extra things ubuntu doesnt package for legal reasons | 23:42 |
| === booboo is now known as cozziemoto | ||
| Slart | metbsd: mint is a derivative of ubuntu.. lots of stuff are similar.. you might want to ask that question in a mint support channel though.. | 23:42 |
| iustinian | frankly i found mint even more limited than ubuntu | 23:43 |
| smerz | Pirate_Hunter, maybe just to clarify. Non-sudo/root users must be able to read "/" and be able to execute tools in "/bin" etc. But since they are not root they cannot damage the system. They can only read | 23:43 |
| Typos_King | deanus: there's always a balance to be made when issuing an app/OS what to default and what to allow, soo thus far the permissions are that way for $HOME, so thus far the balance is to let you block it if you choose it, or not.... as oppose to block it by default, those are balances always taken into consideration and changing based on people's views | 23:43 |
| Pirate_Hunter | iustinian I could but this current machine has not got the amount of resources to pull that off | 23:43 |
| iustinian | Pirate_Hunter: user mode linux is not that expensive, i dunno if it is developed anymore | 23:44 |
| Emanon | oh and btw just ran that on one of my working drives (same model as the failed one) it IS a Barracuda | 23:44 |
| Typos_King | deanus: there may not be helpful to 'you' alone, sure but you're not barred from chaning it either, anymore than other defaults | 23:44 |
| Emanon | i didnt think that was an el cheapo brand/model | 23:44 |
| Pirate_Hunter | smerz, I understand that just thought there was a way to make the filesystem invisible while permitting users on a server to work within their own /home area | 23:44 |
| Pirate_Hunter | iustinian, user mode linux? | 23:45 |
| smerz | Pirate_Hunter, I'm certain thats not possible. User mode linux maybe the best bet as iustinian suggested. But without virtualization of some kind it's not possible | 23:45 |
| iustinian | Pirate_Hunter: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User-mode_Linux | 23:46 |
| DarkStar1 | ANy phpsysinfo users here? | 23:46 |
| Emanon | dang can't stay to get this fixed right now thanks for the help though be back later | 23:46 |
| Pirate_Hunter | smerz, no problem will look into user mode linux since I haven't heard of it, thanks iustinian for the link | 23:46 |
| iustinian | smerz: uml is still some kind of old virtualization | 23:47 |
| smerz | yeah | 23:47 |
| smerz | pseudo virtualization would fit wouldn't it? :) | 23:47 |
| Typos_King | DarkStar1: so you installed it and dunno how to run it? | 23:47 |
| iustinian | more like jails lolz | 23:47 |
| eremite | Pirate_Hunter: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User-mode_Linux | 23:47 |
| smerz | but i've heard of some commercial hosts using it to sell virtual servers so it cant be that bad | 23:48 |
| === sef_ is now known as ironpony | ||
| toyman61 | eremite: Adjusted the sound volume using the alasamixer. But no sound on my loudspeakers when I tried to play a music CD using Rythmbox.. :-( | 23:48 |
| DarkStar1 | Typos_King: Yes.. I'm new to this whole linux suite of programs | 23:48 |
| iustinian | yeh all the botnets are using those to control the bots thourgh irc commands | 23:48 |
| metbsd | where is mint linux? | 23:48 |

| iustinian | that looks busy | 23:50 |
| Typos_King | DarkStar1: have you looked in your apps menus yet? | 23:50 |
| eremite | toyman61: is it just CDs that dont work? Have you tried flash video, for example? You are sure the volume is turned up? Do you have the codecs installed? Is this a fresh install of Ubuntu? | 23:50 |
| toyman61 | eremite: output from lsof | grep /dev/snd pulseaudi /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p /dev/snd/controlC0 | 23:51 |
| WhiteDawn | toyman61: pulseaudio is using your alsa, u cant use alsa mixer to change volume, you need to use pluseaudio | 23:51 |
| DarkStar1 | Typos_King: well it's installed according to synaptic | 23:51 |
| sik4mpret_ | hello | 23:51 |
| WhiteDawn | sik4mpret_: hey there | 23:51 |
| sik4mpret_ | ^__^ | 23:52 |
| sik4mpret_ | i'm nubie. | 23:52 |
| Typos_King | DarkStar1: then it'd show in the menus usually, with the rest of the apps under some category, for php I'd think under web development or such | 23:52 |
| irqsRFun | I'm using Konservasation, is there an easy way to resond to a question (without typing the name?) | 23:52 |
| WhiteDawn | sik4mpret_: well if you have any problems dont hesitate to ask | 23:52 |
| sik4mpret_ | :D | 23:52 |
| sik4mpret_ | oke | 23:52 |
| Anonymous8743 | irqsRFun: use <TAB> ? | 23:52 |

| SysTeck | yup | 23:53 |
| Typos_King | irqs<TAB> if ther are many with the same letters, keep tabbing :) | 23:53 |
| toyman61 | eremite: Fresh install of ubuntu. I have loaded "restricted formats" (to support DVD, Mp3 and so on). Nothing else. Maybe I'm lacking some codecs ? How do I find out ? | 23:53 |
| zvacet | !ask | sik4mpret_ | 23:54 |
| ubottu | sik4mpret_: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 23:54 |
| eremite | toyman61: DID YOU TRY ANY OTHER AUDIO FORMATS? | 23:54 |
| eremite | oops, caps lock | 23:54 |
| gyles19 | Thanks for the tip about the bios, I browsed Lenovo's website and found several bios updates for this machine, the most recent in December. Next time I have a chance I'll start with that... except the update is on a bootable iso and I can't write it...! Catch-22. | 23:54 |
| ActionParsnip | Yo yo yo | 23:55 |
| eremite | werd dawg | 23:55 |
| WhiteDawn | gyles19: I miss floppies | 23:55 |

| eremite | Black Russian. Nice joke. | 23:56 |
| ActionParsnip | Shabba | 23:57 |
| Typos_King | I guess it could also be an albino | 23:57 |
| eremite | Being albino has nothing tod o with racial ancestry, aside from the genetic component of albinoism. | 23:57 |
| irqsRFun | metbsd: check out www.distrowatch.com it has a three sentence description of Mint | 23:57 |

| wjm | Hey for some reason in Ubuntu (but not Fedora/BSD) megaupload.com is causing FireFox to crash out any thoughts? | 23:58 |
| ActionParsnip | Firefox sucks is my thought | 23:59 |

| dmdevotee | hey, anybody knows if, i can open a terminal that redirects to the opened folder ?? (like dolphin) | 23:59 |
| ActionParsnip | Wjm: try the mozilla ppa | 23:59 |
| SysTeck | wiat 10 years none of this will matter | 23:59 |
| wjm | ActionParsnip: I did and I even ran it from CLI | 23:59 |
