[00:00] <eremite> wjm: Try Google Chrome.  Its much faster according to all of the tests Ive seen, and my personal use of it affirms that its much, much faster than anything else.
[00:00] <WhiteDawn> wjm: running x86_64?
[00:00] <wjm> no, x86 right now
[00:00] <wjm> it happens on both x86 and x64
[00:00] <WhiteDawn> wjm: well there goes all my ideas
[00:00] <ActionParsnip> Systeck: no word of a lie dude
[00:00] <wjm> I've swapped out flash for gnash
[00:00] <wjm> and it still happens
[00:00] <wjm> and it's only two particular sites
[00:00]  * SysTeck bows.. till then this is what we have
[00:00] <DarkStar1> ActionParsnip: hey parsnip.. You ever used phpsysinfo?
[00:00] <elb0w`> Anyone know why im getting this error when trying to run UEC?  libvirt: internal error no supported architecture for os type 'hvm' (code=1)
[00:00] <WhiteDawn> wjm: try another browser? there are alternatives
[00:00] <wjm> I tried Chrome and FireFox
[00:01] <ActionParsnip> Darkstar1: not as far as I am aware
[00:01] <wjm> but FireFox produces an error message
[00:01] <wjm> Chrome doesn't
[00:01] <abstrakt> hi, i was in here the other day asking about and was basically successful in editing my grub config to change the default boot item
[00:01] <wjm> still freezes on the same two sites
[00:01] <WhiteDawn> wjm: can you paste bin the firefox error?
[00:01] <abstrakt> i'd like to change the default again but i don't remember what file i specifically should edit, since things are diff now with the latest grub
[00:01] <wjm> WhiteDawn: will do
[00:01] <wjm> paste.ubuntu right ?
[00:01] <Eighteens> i installed ubuntu 8.01 on a older machine today, it did well during install, nice screens, mouse and keyboard worked, then after installation it freezes when i try to go into X, so then i tried startx -- -depth 16 and it went, but then i have no mouse, and keyboard is unresposive
[00:01] <ActionParsnip> Wjm: try the firefox ppa. Chromium daily is sweeeet
[00:01] <abstrakt> what file do i actually change to update the default grub selection?
[00:01] <WhiteDawn> wjm: pastebin works too
[00:01] <wjm> ActionParsnip: using ppa right now 3.7-current
[00:02] <ActionParsnip> Wja: gotcha
[00:02] <iustinian> abstrakt: /etc/defult/grub
[00:02] <wjm> yeah, I'm technically minded :P
[00:02] <eremite> Eighteens: possibly force the vesa drivers?  Had a similar problem with another distro once and the vesa drivers saved the day.
[00:02] <wjm> I just can't figure this out
[00:02] <wjm> lol
[00:02] <wjm> WhiteDawn: http://paste.ubuntu.com/400859/
[00:02] <darkvoid82> question from a new ubuntu user. how exaclty does one mount the dvdrom drive. is it put disc in and it runs like in windows or are there commands one must type in?
[00:03] <eremite> darkvoid82: just put the DVD in and wait for the pop-up asking you what you would like to do.
[00:03] <smerz> Hey FloodBot1 is your job protection or flooding? ^_^
[00:03] <wjm> I think FD is file descriptors no?
[00:03] <abstrakt> iustinian, ok cool, got it, so now don't i have to run a grub update script or something?
[00:03] <darkvoid82> eremite, i put a dvd in and got nothing
[00:03] <iustinian> abstrakt: yes indeed
[00:03] <smerz> darkvoid82, is it a dvd video you want to watch?
[00:03] <eremite> darkvoid82: be aware of the fact that many DVDs do not work on computers due to copyright DRM.  You need to install the proper codecs to break through that veil.
[00:03] <abstrakt> iustinian, k and what script is that?
[00:03] <dmdevotee> hey, i installed flashplugin-installer from the repos, but when i go to youtube, it continues asking me for installing flash player. what's the matter?
[00:04] <Typos_King> wjm:   what firefox version?   how did you install it?
[00:04] <MaT-dg> how to share internet connection with an ah-hoc wireless network (with GUI)?
[00:04] <Eighteens> whats the command line to foce a ps2 mouse, it worked during install, but wont work when X tries to load
[00:04] <iustinian> abstrakt: update-grub
[00:04] <abstrakt> iustinian, k thx
[00:04] <wjm> Typos_King: with 3.5 at first - then tried PPA then tried Chrome
[00:04] <darkvoid82> smerz: yes, eremite: ah that would make sense, any idea which codecs I might need
[00:04] <toyman61> eremite: No, not so far..
[00:04] <Typos_King> wjm:   tried getting the .bz2 package from mozilla.org yet?
[00:05] <smerz> darkvoid82, install "ubuntu-restrictedextras" or something. hang on ill look it up
[00:05] <eremite> toyman61: what?"
[00:05] <wjm> not yet, that was gonna be the next idea
[00:05] <WhiteDawn> wjm: http://bit.ly/bhM23m
[00:05] <darkvoid82> smerz: i've got the restricted extras
[00:05] <Typos_King> wjm:   that's what I use, it requires no install btw, just unzip, and run
[00:05] <eremite> darkvoid82: open yoru add/remove apps utility and search for Restricted Extras\
[00:05] <eremite> nm
[00:05] <ubutom> dmdevotee, using lucid?
[00:06] <smerz> darkvoid82, "sudo apt-get install libdvdread4"
[00:06] <WhiteDawn> wjm: its in launchpad as a upstream bug
[00:06] <wjm> WhiteDawn: yeah just saw that
[00:06] <wjm> Lemme try that
[00:07] <smerz> darkvoid82, install that package. Then try putting the dvd back in again. Otherwise you could just open vlc (a media player I'd highly recommend) and select "File" -> "open disc"
[00:07] <darkvoid82> eremite: i remember geting them, smerz: got thr libdvdread4
[00:07] <Dougwiser> ok I wanna buy an all in one printer that is fully supported in ubuntu
[00:07] <wjm> WhiteDawn: am I supposed to add this key/value to about:config or is it supposed to be there?
[00:08] <dmdevotee> ubutom: lucid is name for 9.10? yes, lucid
[00:08] <toyman61> eremite: No, I have not tried any other sound formats so far..
[00:08] <WhiteDawn> wjm: should be there, if not you can add it
[00:08] <smerz> darkvoid82, then i'd suggest vlc media player. "sudo apt-get install vlc". Then under applications -> sound & video -> Vlc media player. Then "File" -> "open disc"
[00:08] <ubutom> dmdevotee, no, 9.10 is karmic. well, never mind, i upgraded from 8.04lts to lucid and had some problems with flashplugin-installer too
[00:08] <eremite> toyman61: well them you should.
[00:08] <ar0n> hi guys, anyone around to give me help, just a few questions
[00:08] <smerz> darkvoid82, but normally a popup should come just like in windows
[00:09] <ar0n> i installed a repo that had my nic and vid card drivers
[00:09] <dmdevotee> sorry, my mystake, i am using 9.10
[00:09] <darkvoid82> smerz: ok thanks, i'll look into that
[00:09] <Trek> !ask | ar0n
[00:09] <DarkStar1> can someone here help me with phpsysinfo pls?
[00:09] <ar0n> it may of been like a restricted
[00:09] <ar0n> i know sorry i have good manners
[00:09] <Trek> !enter | ar0n
[00:09] <iustinian> Dougwiser: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters
[00:09] <dmdevotee> ubutom: i am using 9.10, the last stable, not the beta
[00:09] <DarkStar1> ANyone?
[00:10] <darkvoid82> smerz: no pop ups for dvd music cd or data cd
[00:10] <ubutom> dmdevotee, no problem, I just thought maybe it was related. I couldn't remove or install it ;)
[00:10] <toyman61> OK. But I have nearly 30 GB of sound-data in mp3-format. If I must convert them to i.e. Ogg-Vorbis I will go back to Windows again.. :-(
[00:10] <ar0n> jesus really lol? so yes it was like a repo i had to add becuase ubuntu quit carrying it..anyone have any idea?
[00:10] <wjm> WhiteDawn: looks like FF is still freezing on the site though :(
[00:10] <metbsd> is ubuntu the best? cuz im gonna play it
[00:10] <toyman61> eremite: OK. But if I must convert my 30 GB of mp3's to i.e. Ogg-Vorbis then I will consider going back to Windows again..
[00:10] <ubutom> dmdevotee, tryusing software-center from menu and search for adobe
[00:10] <iustinian> toyman61: look for fluendo mp3 decoder
[00:10] <zachster10> hello
[00:11] <smerz> toyman61, why do you want to convert mp3 to ogg? I got all my music as mp3
[00:11] <sik4moret> hello
[00:11] <iustinian> toyman61: it is a legal gstreamer plugin
[00:11] <ubutom> dmdevotee, I just installed the firefox extension and flash works fine now
[00:12] <WhiteDawn> wjm: apparently its a bug in the PPA for firefox
[00:12] <wjm> WhiteDawn: yeah it's affecting 3.5 and 3.6 though too
[00:12] <toyman61> smerz: I have installed Ubuntu 9.10 (64-bits) and have migrated from Windows. I have lots of mp3's, but I am not able to get any sound through my loadspeakers..
[00:12] <iustinian> last time i checked mplayer was working ok with mp3s
[00:12] <wjm> also happens in Chrome
[00:12] <sik4mpret> :D
[00:12] <toyman61> smerz: Somebody told me to try another sound format. Then I suggested Ogg-Vorbis..
[00:12] <smerz> toyman61, well rest assured. That has nothing to do with your music beeing in the mp3 format
[00:13] <dmdevotee> i can't even install it from http://get.adobe.com/es/flashplayer/ for firefox
[00:13] <darkvoid82> !tab
[00:13] <smerz> toyman61, so you get no sound whatsoever that's your issue right?
[00:13] <toyman61> smerz: I know. But I have installed restricted formats-package, and was trying to play a music CD through Rythmbox. But no sound whatsever..
[00:13] <Typos_King> toyman61:   check your mixer setting/sliders
[00:14] <toyman61> Typos_King: I have set all my mixer settings (alasmixer) to max.
[00:14] <iustinian> some channels are muted by default
[00:14] <smerz> toyman61, I dont think its a format issue. mp3 is just fine :). Do you have multiple sound cards?
[00:15] <toyman61> smerz: Only one sound card. Works great under Windows XP SP3. I have only disabled the Windows disk and installed Ubuntu another disk.
[00:15] <toyman61> another disk = on another disk
[00:15] <iustinian> toyman61: what soundcard is that ?
[00:15] <smerz> toyman61, alright. Right click on the speaker icon at the top right. Select sound preferences
[00:15] <amaurea> Hello. I have an application I am trying to run fullscreen, but the task bar and other bar still show up and take up considerable space. How can I get them not to show up when running a game in fullscreen?
[00:16] <smerz> toyman61, select the "output" tab. There will be multiple outputs for your soundcard. Try them all while playing music. Make sure sound isn't muted in either the music player or the icon @ top right
[00:16] <toyman61> iustinian: Realtek audio (embedded on the MSI motherboard)
[00:17] <ubutom> amaurea,right click on the bars and selec auto-hide
[00:17] <toyman61> smerz: I will
[00:17] <WhiteDawn> amaurea: you could set the bar to auto hide,
[00:17] <smerz> realtek should be just fine toyman61
[00:17] <Fresh> Do i have to use screen to have rtorrent running
[00:17] <Typos_King> toyman61:   what does -> lshw -C sound;   give  you as driver?
[00:17] <Fresh> Do i have to use screen to have rtorrent running while doing other things?
[00:17] <iustinian> Fresh: i think so
[00:18] <sik4mpret> ehmm.
[00:18] <iustinian> Fresh: unless rtorrent is working as a frontend for a demon
[00:18] <sik4mpret> can u help me??
[00:18] <WhiteDawn> Fresh: if you want to run a program in the background and its in cli, put a "&" at the end of command
[00:18] <sik4mpret> i have some problems
[00:18] <iustinian> i use deluge in command line
[00:18] <toyman61> smerz: The sound was simply muted.. I just found out. Works fine now. Thanx to everybody for helping me with this!!!
[00:18] <smerz> toyman61, you're welcome
[00:18] <kidovate> Hello?
[00:18] <Fresh> iustinian: how do i acess it after the ampersand
[00:18] <amaurea> ubutom, WhiteDawn: ok, I'll try that. I do like to have the bars there when I'm in normal resolution, though, and the game isn't in full screen. What does the expand option in the panel properties mean?
[00:18] <kidovate> How do you install software from a ppa??
[00:19] <sik4mpret> helllooo....
[00:19] <sik4mpret> help me out
[00:19] <harisund> kidovate: You add the PPA as a repository and then search for softwares as you normally would
[00:19] <WhiteDawn> sik4mpret: ask the question, then ppl will help you
[00:19] <bazhang> sik4mpret, ask a question
[00:19] <toyman61> But here's another problem: My D-Link DWA-140 installed fine, and it works!  But I only get 54 Mbps speed even though both the adapter and the router is 802.11n. How do I solve this ?
[00:19] <ubutom> if you deavtivate it it gets thinner amurea
[00:19] <smerz> kidovate, you need to add the ppa to /etc/apt/sources.list
[00:19] <Fresh> whitedawn: how do i get back to it after i use &
[00:19] <ubutom> if you deavtivate it it gets thinner amaurea
[00:19] <smerz> kidovate, next you need to import the ppa key
[00:19] <toyman61> Typos_King: Problem solved. The loudspeaker was muted. But thanx for your interest!
[00:19] <harisund> smerz: there's a better way than that, you shouldn't be adding it to/etc/apt/sources.list directly .. there's a command whch adds it to /etc/sources.list.d
[00:19] <WhiteDawn> Fresh: that i don't know, you can kill it though if you want it to quit
[00:19] <smerz> kidovate, now you can just use "sudo apt-get install packagename" or the package manager to install
[00:20] <smerz> harisund, oh can you give more info on that? I never heard of that
[00:20] <iustinian> toyman61: 802.1n is pretty much still experimental it depends on the actual implementations
[00:20] <Fresh> WhiteDawn: im getting closer to answering this question
[00:20] <kidovate> harisund: I added it but I cant find the software... Can you recommend how? It's here - https://launchpad.net/~ajmitch/+archive/ppa
[00:20] <harisund> smerz: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:user/ppa-name
[00:20] <Typos_King> heh
[00:20] <Fresh> WhiteDawn: thank you
[00:21] <smerz> harisund, and that takes care of the key as well?
[00:21] <PlaHPoy> is there any need to purchase RE3 or RE4 server drives if I am running RAID1,  seems with the fault tolerence I could run 2 black editions and save 150 bucks.... ???
[00:21] <toyman61> iustinian: But I thought the IEEE 802.11n standard had gone from experimental to a clear standard.
[00:21] <harisund> smerz: I believe so yes
[00:21] <WhiteDawn> Fresh: no problem
[00:21] <smerz> harisund, well thanks thats good to know :)
[00:21] <harisund> kidovate: Once you have added it, do an apt-get update and search for the package
[00:21] <harisund> smerz: https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA/InstallingSoftware
[00:21] <toyman61> It works great on Windows XP SP3..
[00:22] <iustinian> toyman61: indeed but not all the producers have updated their lines of products
[00:22] <kidovate> harisund: I already did. I cant find it
[00:22] <smerz> kidovate, "sudo apt-get update" You need to update the repository first
[00:22] <billy_> can someone help when i try connecting to my webpage through filezilla it wont work and no-one is on the offical page
[00:22] <kidovate> smerz: I already did that
[00:22] <harisund> smerz: apparently he did. kidovate if you did, are you searching for the packagename correctly?
[00:22] <kidovate> That's what I asked you
[00:23] <kidovate> The listed name doesn't seem to work...
[00:23] <toyman61> iustinian: I see. D-Link does not offer Linux-drivers for this adapter, but there is drivers available for Ubuntu. One driver is shipped with the 9.10-edition..
[00:23] <harisund> kidovate: boost1.38  is what youare trying to install?
[00:23] <kidovate> Yeah
[00:23] <kidovate> Not showing up
[00:23] <iustinian> toyman61: if N is implementd in the kernel module it should work
[00:24] <rixxy> how do I give a secondary drive formatted with ext4 read/write priveliges in karmic
[00:24] <toyman61> iustinian: How do I find out ?  I'm a newbie on Linux...
[00:24] <kidovate> harisund: Not found
[00:24] <billy_> does anyone know anything about filezilla? i really need help?
[00:24] <kidovate> When I do a apt-get install
[00:24] <smerz> rixxy, you could change the owner:group assignment
[00:24] <rixxy> in users and groups?
[00:24] <harisund> kidovate: let me check, is that the package you are trying to install though?
[00:24] <smerz> rixxy, no each file has an owner and a group assigned to it
[00:25] <kidovate> harisund: Yes
[00:25] <iustinian> toyman61: u need to check the changelog on the kernel modules sources i guess
[00:25] <smerz> rixxy, normally the owner has read/write
[00:25] <rixxy> smerz: so the default user created?
[00:25] <billy_> come on guys dosnt anyone know ho to upload files on filezilla?#
[00:25] <smerz> rixxy, if not you may have to change those permissions. But you need to check where the issue lies. Either wrong owner/grp or wrong permissions. Both can easily be fixed
[00:26] <toyman61> iustinian: That seems to be a too heavy job for me... I know Windows (and computers) very well, but I am not that familiar with Ubuntu..
[00:26] <iustinian> chmod 777 on the mounted directory
[00:26] <smerz> billy_, you're trying to use ftp right?
[00:26] <iustinian> or chown to own it
[00:26] <rixxy> alright, i will try it and get back here
[00:26] <smerz> chmod 777 works but could be overkill. I'd suggest chown as the most likely culprit
[00:26] <rixxy> thanks, smerz!
[00:27] <billy_> yeah but it wont let me upload?
[00:27] <smerz> billy_, any error messages?
[00:27] <billy_> no it says it cant connect
[00:28] <smerz> billy_, it doesn't give a reason (timeout for instance) ?
[00:28] <billy_> yh but im only on it for about 2 minutes
[00:29] <kidovate> harisund: Never mind, I found it :)
[00:29] <billy_> it says failed to recieve directory?
[00:29] <smerz> oh boy
[00:29] <smerz> billy_,
[00:29] <smerz> ah
[00:29] <billy_> it says failed to recieve directory?
[00:29] <smerz> billy_, is the ftp server managed by you?
[00:30] <smerz> in other words could it be the ftp server? or does it work from ie. windows or other computers
[00:31] <PeterT> my entire window is filled with netsplits

[00:42] <Copperred> good question...what is gnash
[00:42] <dsnyders> !gnash
[00:43] <IdleOne> Copperred: wait, you trying to install java or flash?
[00:43] <work> Hello, I am trying to figure out the address of my parallel port
[00:43] <IdleOne> Copperred: if it's java install sun-jre6-plugin
[00:43] <dsnyders> work, it is likely /dev/lp0
[00:43] <Copperred> hmmm
[00:44] <Copperred> i need to install Sun Java 1.5 or higher, or equivalent JRE
[00:44] <IdleOne> Copperred: sorry. it's sun-java6-plugin
[00:44] <Copperred> and then the plug in  i think.....
[00:45] <eremite> gnash is a free alternative to lash, but I hear it sucks.
[00:45] <eremite> flash**
[00:45] <jkd4> dsnyders: I don't have an "Accessibility" menu
[00:46] <Copperred> idleone brb
[00:48] <etzerd> hello all
[00:48] <Pirate_Hunter> im using the server.iso is there an option to format the whole disk or do I need to use gpart.iso
[00:48] <etzerd> how do i know what driver install for my video card?
[00:49] <ar0n> guys im having to reinstall on my lappy dual booting windows, i went to beta, it doesnt work, its my girls machine she likes ubuntu, so what is the easiest way to get data off, just two folders, move/shrink the home partition, or use live cd?
[00:49] <dsnyders> jkd4, does the onboard command work?
[00:49] <ar0n> id reshrink and move the home partition if that holds any information of value to making my reinstall go quicker
[00:50] <bloodrock> ar0n, use a livecd
[00:50] <ar0n> ok thahnks, also is it possible to just reinstall linux without formatting, keeping applications, and their settings
[00:50] <dsnyders> ar0n, livecd and usb drive
[00:51] <etzerd> how do i know what driver install for my video card?
[00:51] <ar0n> etzerd
[00:51] <ar0n> you can look up the manufacture
[00:51] <etzerd> ar0n
[00:51] <ar0n> google your pc, or google the command to display video driver information for ubuntu
[00:51] <ar0n> i dont know what it is off the top of my head buddy :(
[00:52] <sje46> I think someone tried to hack into my computer!
[00:52] <etzerd> I know the manufacture is intel, but I just want to make sure the right driver is install
[00:52] <sje46> let me find it...sorry
[00:52] <sje46> A user on the computer '::ffff:211.139.127.242' is trying to remotely view or control your desktop.  Do you want to allow them to do so?
[00:52] <sje46> I turned remote desktop off, of course
[00:52] <bloodrock> ar0n,  yes you can install without formatting if it same ver it may not overwrite home folder not sure
[00:52] <sje46> but I forgot to click no on the request, and I can't find it anywhere
[00:52] <ar0n> not worried ab out home
[00:53] <sje46> does it just disappear in time?
[00:53] <etzerd> because when I tried to move a windows it is swinging left to right, not solide at all
[00:53] <ar0n> i had to install some extra repos, as well as setting up my FF
[00:53] <ar0n> etzerd
[00:53] <ar0n> google for that command i said above
[00:53] <bloodrock> ar0n,  reinstalling will removed third party repos
[00:53] <ar0n> its out there.
[00:53] <dsnyders> etzerd, You may have a desktop "special effect" called wobbly windows installed
[00:54] <ar0n> is it possible to like, revert to an older install?
[00:54] <ar0n> beta boots into cli, wont load x, so its useless to her
[00:54] <IdleOne> ar0n: nope, just a fresh install
[00:54] <sje46> etzerd, right click your desktop
[00:54] <etzerd> dsnyders: how do I remove that?
[00:54] <ar0n> GAY'
[00:54] <ar0n> =P
[00:54] <sje46> etzerd, rightclick desktop, and select change desktop background
[00:54] <IdleOne> ar0n: #ubuntu+1 for help with lucid
[00:54] <ar0n> no need
[00:54] <abstrakt> hahaha, i just installed kukbuntu-desktop
[00:55] <yourmghq|skype> i have made progress in my problem
[00:55] <ar0n> ime done with there
[00:55] <abstrakt> that was epic fail
[00:55] <abstrakt> lol
[00:55] <bloodrock> you can but that will remove the newer
[00:55] <IdleOne> ar0n: remember, family friendly please :)
[00:55] <sje46> etzerd, then go to visual effects tab
[00:55] <sje46> and change it to medium
[00:55] <abstrakt> all i get is a terminal
[00:55] <abstrakt> no window manager
[00:55] <yourmghq|skype> so please heko
[00:55] <yourmghq|skype> help
[00:55] <sje46> normal* , etzerd
[00:55] <abstrakt> you would think that installing kubuntu-desktop would do the trick right?
[00:55] <bloodrock> ar0n, i take it you tryed the lucid beta
[00:55] <abstrakt> wrong... so, anyone know what i'm missing?
[00:55] <ar0n> yes
[00:55] <ar0n> lol
[00:55] <IdleOne> ar0n: done or not. this channel is not for lucid support so you wont be getting much if any help with it.
[00:55] <histo> abstrakt: yes it would do you have a display manager like kdm installed?
[00:55] <ar0n> im not asking for it
[00:56] <histo> ar0n: /j #ubuntu+1
[00:56] <abstrakt> histo, yeah i logged in using kdm
[00:56] <ar0n> or for anyhelp about it. im asking simple ubuntu help
[00:56] <IdleOne> ar0n: ok then like I explained to you yesterday about the fresh install and separate /home :)
[00:56] <histo> abstrakt: and kde doesn't load?
[00:56] <abstrakt> histo, when i installed kubuntu desktop, part of the configuration process asked me if wanted to use kdm or gdm, so i figured, hell i'll use kdm
[00:56] <bloodrock> he not looking for help with lucid he wants to go back to 9.04 or 9.10
[00:56] <ar0n> i was asking more spefic questions sorry
[00:56] <abstrakt> histo, apparntly not
[00:56] <abstrakt> histo, i can run konqueror from the terminal, but there's no window management happening
[00:56] <IdleOne> bloodrock: yup, got it :)
[00:56] <Alexisonfire> ...
[00:56] <histo> abstrakt: make sure you select on kdm you want kde as the default session
[00:57] <ar0n> bloodrock its ok thanks for the help
[00:57] <etzerd> sje46: thank you very much, it's solve
[00:57] <sje46> etzerd, no problem :)
[00:57] <abstrakt> histo, that shouldn't really matter though should it?
[00:57] <abstrakt> histo, i guess i'll try one more time and explicitly select KDE
[00:57] <abstrakt> brb
[00:57] <IdleOne> ar0n: would you like the link for the separate /home?
[00:57] <IdleOne> or do you still have it?
[00:57] <etzerd> sje46: do you tried the new version 10.04 Beta1 yet?
[00:57] <ar0n> no i still have it, i dont think its what i want
[00:57] <histo> abstrakt: you said your just getting terminal sounds like its loadin failsafe
[00:57] <sje46> etzerd, I have not.  I don't even know how to
[00:57] <IdleOne> ar0n: ubuntu does not have a revert back to previous install feature
[00:57] <ar0n> it wont help me save anything i cant get with a live cd, wont save settings etc
[00:58] <IdleOne> ar0n: so the only way is to do a fresh install
[00:58] <etzerd> just download the beta version and install
[00:58] <histo> !downgrade | ar0n
[00:58] <ar0n> so format a must?
[00:58] <dsnyders> ar0n, ... or just restore from your last backup.
[00:59] <yourmghq|skype> who can help me
[00:59] <sje46> etzerd, ah, okay.  I think I'll wait until it officially comes ou tthough
[00:59] <IdleOne> ar0n: only the install partition and the installer will do it for you
[00:59] <etzerd> because the last version 9.04 don't work with my new Dell Inspiron laptop
[00:59] <histo> ar0n: pretty much thats the easiest way. If you want to save all your files and settings just make a seperate /home
[00:59] <histo> etzerd: what happened?
[00:59] <ar0n> oh so will i point the new isntall at the other home i make?
[00:59] <histo> ar0n: yeap it will then mount it on boot
[00:59] <ar0n> so it will use that info or just for back up purposes...
[00:59] <yourmghq|skype> histo: i know what is wrong
[01:00] <histo> ar0n: you have to use the same username on the new install as you did on the old one though
[01:00] <Jork> Hello. Is somehow possible to get pytube for ubuntu, or some simillar app?
[01:00] <yourmghq|skype> it does not recognize /dev/sr0
[01:00] <IdleOne> ar0n: no, you point the install to where the old install is. your /home contains your data you dont want to format
[01:00] <histo> yourmghq|skype: huh?
[01:00] <etzerd> since I bought that laptop last month when I install the 9.04 version the screen went black, no graphic
[01:00] <yourmghq|skype> my dvd+rw
[01:00] <yourmghq|skype> histo my dvd+rw
[01:00] <histo> IdleOne: thats if /home is on a seperate partition
[01:00] <histo> yourmghq|skype: ahh did you get it working?
[01:00] <IdleOne> histo: from what I understood yesterday, it is already.
[01:00] <abstrakt> histo, aight, so KDE loads when I explicitly select KDE
[01:00] <histo> IdleOne: ohh yeah he's good to go then
[01:00] <yourmghq|skype> histo:  sadly no, it does not know what /dev/sr0 is
[01:01] <yourmghq|skype> i tried burning in gnomebaler
[01:01] <etzerd> because the video card is an Intel Accelerator HD which is not support by any of the distro out there
[01:01] <ar0n> hmm ok.. IdleOne om *not sure, it was a regular install..
[01:01] <hipitihop> I have a bluetooth keyboard
[01:01] <yourmghq|skype> histo i tried burning in gnomebaker
[01:01] <histo> abstrakt: yeah it sounds like it was loading a failsafe session where all you get is X and an xterm
[01:01] <abstrakt> histo, however, no internet... gnome works with both my wireless card and my WWAN
[01:01] <abstrakt> histo, yeh, kinda dumb imo, why isn't kdm already preconfigured to load either the last default or at least KDE, since it's kdm
[01:01] <histo> abstrakt: you may want to ask in #kubuntu I only have used gnome and other things
[01:01] <abstrakt> histo, actually don't answer that question
[01:01] <abstrakt> lol
[01:01] <abstrakt> i don't care why
[01:01] <IdleOne> ar0n: ok well then take a look at the link ubottu gave you yesterday and you should be able to figure it out. the instructions are fairly simple if followed carefully
[01:02] <histo> abstrakt: well kdm or gdm can be used dosn't matter they don't care which one you want to load.
[01:02] <ar0n> yeah. im just confused as to what the benefits of saving it will be
[01:02] <bloodrock> ar0n, use a livecd open gperted to ee how the partitians were setup
[01:02] <histo> ar0n: all your data and settings will be saved. If you have nothing then it doesn't mater
[01:02] <ar0n> a fresh install would be nice anyways..cause i didnt literally touch it after the first install
[01:02] <IdleOne> ar0n: well if you have a lot of media files you don't want to lose
[01:02] <ar0n> not enough i thikn, just some pictures i can get via live cd
[01:02] <abstrakt> histo, better yet, how do i actually bring up my wireless interface on cli
[01:03] <IdleOne> ar0n: if not pop in the cd and go for it :)
[01:03] <histo> ar0n: but I always create a seperate home when I install
[01:03] <abstrakt> histo, i'd rather just know that, i've done hardline ethernet plenty of times
[01:03] <histo> abstrakt: what type of wifi are you connecting to?
[01:03] <yourmghq|skype> hey histo why in the dev file does dvd not have a dvdrw file while cd also has a cdrw
[01:03] <abstrakt> histo, but never done a wireless on a laptop
[01:03] <histo> abstrakt: is it wpa2 or anything goofy?
[01:03] <etzerd> ar0n: with the version 9.04 to work I have to use VESA and the resolution no more than 1024X768 which look very ugly.
[01:03] <ar0n> its moer like ff settings, desktop settings
[01:03] <ar0n> random stuff..
[01:03] <hipitihop> sorry, I have a bluetooth keyboard and mouse which pair via 'sudo hidd --search' but
[01:03] <ar0n> etzerd perhaps get the restricted rep
[01:03] <IdleOne> ar0n: that is simple enough to reset.
[01:03] <dmdevotee> anybody knows if there is any way to download djl from repos
[01:03] <histo> yourmghq|skype: I don't know mine works as /dev/sr0
[01:03] <abstrakt> histo, well, either any sort of wireless LAN like no-password/WEP/WPA etc
[01:03] <ar0n> repo*
[01:03] <etzerd> but the new version 10.04 works fine with it
[01:03] <ar0n> idle yeah
[01:04] <abstrakt> histo, i also have an AT&T wireless card that "just works" under GNOME
[01:04] <histo> abstrakt: well wpa2 gets a bit goofy with iwconfig
[01:04] <IdleOne> ar0n: so your issue now is, what are you waiting for :)
[01:04] <yourmghq|skype> yea histo it says it does not recognize
[01:04] <ar0n> im not worried i just got to get it done shes bitching, so im kinda doing my homework so i can not have to *stop* and google
[01:04] <histo> abstrakt: but basically you want to use iwconfig to set up wifi
[01:04] <phongphrai> hi everyone!
[01:04] <ar0n> idle windows =
[01:04] <etzerd> I did tried all that none of it works,
[01:04] <histo> !wireless > abstrakt
[01:04] <etzerd> how do I get the restricted rep?
[01:04] <ar0n> i had to put this on for her, but i just noticed, it looks like it ate the grubloader
[01:05] <histo> yourmghq|skype: thats wierd... I would searchj for your make/model of dvdrw on the forums and see if anyone else had an issue
[01:05] <abstrakt> histo, thx
[01:05] <dmdevotee> anybody knows if there is any way to download djl from repos?
[01:05] <histo> !info djl | dmdevotee
[01:05] <ar0n> its in settings or pref or something
[01:05] <histo> dmdevotee: what is djl?
[01:06] <deserteagle> hello all
[01:06] <yourmghq|skype> histo it is memorex
[01:06] <etzerd> ar0n: how to change the look of the boot manager? I hate it because it look like DOS, I rather have it with a graphical interface
[01:06] <histo> yourmghq|skype: not the media the actual drive itself
[01:06] <yourmghq|skype> o ok
[01:06] <ar0n> dunno sorry
[01:06] <Aryeh> etzerd... lol - GUI or bust. >_>
[01:06] <IdleOne> etzerd: you spend much time looking at the boot loader?
[01:07] <dmdevotee> histo: i type !info djl in console. bash: !info: event not found
[01:07] <Aryeh> IdleOne, thank you
[01:07] <deserteagle> i installed ubuntu on my new hdd and it finally boot... after restoring all the files from my backup drive (except the boot directory, obviously) GRUB now says: "error: out of partition" again please help!
[01:07] <eremite> etzerd: its only open for 10 seconds, lol.  Does it matter that its not graphical?  it loads much faster.
[01:07] <histo> dmdevotee: no djl is not in the repos as far as I can see. it looks like a script you download
[01:07] <dmdevotee> histo: djl is a platform similar to steam
[01:07] <yourmghq|skype> histo it is a optiarc cd-rw
[01:07] <histo> dmdevotee: and just extract and run the script
[01:07] <etzerd> I don't, I just choose which OS to load, but it just look ugly, I rather have  a GUI look instead.
[01:07] <dmdevotee> histo: there is no way to add more repos?
[01:07] <histo> yourmghq|skype: yeah try searchign for it on the ubuntuforums.org and see if anyone else is having issues with it.
[01:08] <dmdevotee> djl is on mandriva repos
[01:08] <histo> dmdevotee: yes you can add unofficial repos.
[01:08] <IdleOne> etzerd: I hate to say this but ummm seriously dude!
[01:08] <histo> dmdevotee: hold up let me check something
[01:08] <britt> what is the easiest way to create a complete mirror of a apt repository? I have a device with one pcmcia slot and a pcmcia cdrom and cant both use the cdrom and use a wireless card
[01:08] <dmdevotee> thx
[01:08] <Aryeh> etzerd, That it looks ugly is 1) an opinion and 2) pointless. It's not open long, it's faster this way, and we adults can handle it.
[01:08] <phongphrai> In Glade & C coding, how can I have a GtkTextView that acts similar to terminal (previous entered lines not editable but at prompt and after it is)
[01:08]  * Aryeh shrugs
[01:08] <Aryeh> Sorry if that's harsh bud.
[01:09] <bloodrock> deserteagle, what version of ubuntu
[01:09] <phongphrai> please someone
[01:09] <etzerd> ok, I take that back
[01:09] <deserteagle> 9.10
[01:09] <deserteagle> etzerd, there's a graphical grub package somewhere, i know because i looked into it myself
[01:09] <deserteagle> etzerd, i was even looking into customizing the look
[01:09] <deserteagle> and there's a way to do that too, i remember
[01:10] <eremite> deserteagle: How much does it slow load time?
[01:10] <etzerd> deserteagle: where?
[01:10] <deserteagle> eremite, NONE, lol
[01:10] <deserteagle> etzerd, this would be where google comes in handy =\ sorry it's been a while ago
[01:10] <eremite> deserteagle: how is that possible?  You would need to load a X session or something prior to loading anything graphical.  It MUST slow it down a lot.
[01:10] <deserteagle> if I could even BOOT, i'd be looking into it as well lol
[01:10]  * Aryeh shakes his head in disproval
[01:10] <deserteagle> eremite, negative, it doesn't work on X
[01:11] <DarkStar1> what's the terminal command to list available groups??
[01:11] <bloodrock> etzerd, try this for grub2 http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/grub-2.html#mozTocId16468
[01:11] <Aryeh> Soon we'll be hearing about how the shell should have colorful avatars bouncing around and stuff
[01:11] <britt> does anybody know how to at least make a apt mirror locally?
[01:11] <histo> dmdevotee: it looks like you just download the script and run it. I don't see a repo for it anywhere. http://en.djl-linux.org/?q=node/19
[01:11] <aurilliance> It's like part of the window manager as failed on my ubuntu machine - none of the windows have any title bars... anyone know how to fix this?
[01:11] <aurilliance> restart x?
[01:11] <deserteagle> eremite, keep in mind, it's graphical, but not like a desktop environment
[01:11] <dmdevotee> histo thanks
[01:11] <deserteagle> Aryeh, check this out: people like you are what hold linux back
[01:11] <DarkStar1> Is there a command for listing groups?
[01:12] <deserteagle> reason why I switched to full blown linux: OPTIONS my friend
[01:12] <[[thufir]]> I'm stuck in, I think, fvwm-crystal and cannot logout.  there are no logout buttons.
[01:12] <dmdevotee> it's a pain...now i have to run the script everytime i want to execute it :(
[01:12] <deserteagle> try and do whatever you please, because linux allows it
[01:12] <histo> dmdevotee: there are people talking about it on the forums also
[01:12] <eremite> deserteagle: you need to load a xserver equivilant in order to use graphical ANYTHING, so it must slwo boot times.  Even if you dont notice a 2 second lag or whatever, im sure it exists.
[01:12] <histo> dmdevotee: you could create a launcher
[01:12] <DarkStar1> Anyone??
[01:12] <Aryeh> deserteagle, sorry? I think I'm a pretty liberal guy with the advances we make, but I really do have to draw the line at complaints over something like a bootloader because it's "ugly"
[01:12] <bloodrock> deserteagle, what version of ubuntu did you reinstall that gives you the out of partitain error
[01:13] <tp43_> aurilliance, if you turn off one of the compiz windows things, it comes back, don't ask me which one.  btw, when is the last time you used it, once in a blue moon I move a windows, but you can use alt+left click on those rare occasions, besides that the new zooming and tab switching makes the top bar obsolete
[01:13] <greezmunkey> lo
[01:13] <deserteagle> britt, if you don't mind me asking, what brings you to that conclusion? making an apt mirror (as far as I understand) would take a looong time downloading all the packages
[01:13] <deserteagle> bloodrock, 9.10
[01:13] <phongphrai> Could someone help me please. In Glade or GTK coding, how can I have a GtkTextView that acts similar to terminal (that is previous entered lines not editable )
[01:13] <DarkStar1> just need a yes or no answer from anyone... Is there a command to list available groups??
[01:13] <eremite> Aryeh: the beauty of open source and freeware is that people are free to use it however they choose, regardless of how irrational those decisions may seem to some.
[01:14] <histo> DarkStar1: yes
[01:14] <Kre10s> DarkStar1: gooogleoogleoogle! http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=150211
[01:14] <yourmghq|skype> histo: http://pastebin.com/iM5kbgyq
[01:14] <bloodrock> deserteagle,  k and what backup restore did you use
[01:14] <deserteagle> Aryeh, if there's someone out there requesting it, there's a demand. Whenever there's demand, there's the opportunity for a need to be met. Heck even Dell agrees with me (their newest BIOS are completely graphical)
[01:14] <britt> deserteagle: thats cool. its a bit involved, but basically it boils down to i need to install ubuntu on a machine that cant both install ubuntu netinstall and access a remote apt repo
[01:14] <Aryeh> eremite, Even when irrational moves into the realms of the asinine?
[01:14] <deserteagle> bloodrock, good ol' copy paste :p
[01:14] <eremite> DarkStar1: learn to use google instead of asking the same question 20 times.  http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/redhat-fedora-linux-help/41672-command-view-list-all-users-groups.html
[01:14] <bloodrock> deserteagle,  or backup program to do the restore
[01:14] <britt> deserteagle: so im going to create a deb repo on a flash drive (i only need i386) for installation
[01:15] <eremite> Aryeh: opinions are subjective.  Your opinion on the matter is irrelevant.
[01:15] <deserteagle> britt, oooh i see
[01:15] <EricInBNE> hi everything on my computer works except my logitech quickcam microphone. video works
[01:15] <EricInBNE> how do I get the mike working?
[01:15] <deserteagle> britt, it's going to be HUGE though =\
[01:15] <faron> Hello everybody.Hopefully all are well today...I am curious...my girlfriends brother [who lives in the house with us] is basically a comp geek.How easy is it to "infect" a linux system [Xubuntu} with a "keystroke logger" ? I'm not really worried about anything other than bank info
[01:15] <Aryeh> deserteagle, But how long do you look at BIOS when you're working in it? Now how long are you looking at GRUB when it pulls up? A graphical BIOS is slightly less asinine than a graphical GRUB
[01:15] <histo> !google > Kre10s
[01:15] <Aryeh> eremite, that's *your* opinion
[01:15] <DarkStar1> I just wanted a quick answer for a simple command as opposed to trawling through webpages of documents
[01:15] <hal> I need to run the command   iwconfig wlan0 power off   on boot, but regardless of whether anyone logs in.  where is best to put it?
[01:15] <deserteagle> britt, but you can put the installer ISO on a jump drive! :D
[01:16] <shazbotmcnasty> buntu buntu
[01:16] <eremite> faron: Its easy to install keyloggers.
[01:16] <histo> yourmghq|skype: you've eliminated it being a media issue right?
[01:16] <faron> that's what I thought
[01:16] <bloodrock> deserteagle, did you try editing commands at bootloader
[01:16] <britt> deserteagle: cant boot from USB, only from a PCMCIA cdrom
[01:16] <deserteagle> Aryeh, again, opinions are subjective: Bill Gates once though 256kb of RAM was MORE than enough for ANYONE
[01:16] <britt> deserteagle: 640k
[01:16] <deserteagle> britt, hmmm...
[01:16] <deserteagle> britt, that, thanks :D
[01:16] <eremite> Aryeh: it is hardly my opinion that opinions are subjective.  Read a dictionary and study *logic*.
[01:17] <deserteagle> bloodrock, nope. Should I?
[01:17] <faron> I'm not really even worried about that.It's just that my girl made me [slightly] nervous ha ha
[01:17] <britt> deserteagle: intresting situation isnt it haha
[01:17] <Aryeh> eremite, I was refering to your *opinion* that my opinion on the matter was irrelevant. If you can't keep up, best not to join in. ;)
[01:17] <iflema> faron is this a shared system or your personal system?
[01:17] <Aryeh> deserteagle, Lol, yeah - well... that's Gates...
[01:18] <faron> this is personal
[01:18] <britt> deserteagle: back when i started in computers, i too thought 640k was alot. and it was for dos 3.3
[01:18] <eremite> Aryeh: how is yoru opinion of someone else's use of a computer relevant to their use of a computer?  Get lost, troll.
[01:18] <deserteagle> aaaaand this conversation is now off topic
[01:18] <Dougwiser> 640K IS ALL WE WILL EVER NEED
[01:18] <Guest40222> hi, when I click on the fullscreen button in deutsche welle site it is not using full screen, but for for some weeks it was, what is my problem?
[01:18] <faron> but him being a geek I'm sure he knows wasys around things
[01:18] <Dougwiser> woops caps
[01:18] <Aryeh> britt, I remember when you could back up your whole computer on a floppy. >_>
[01:18] <bloodrock> deserteagle, yeah try see if can find correct partitain ubuntu was loaded to  and did you had it loaded to the mbr or the partitain
[01:18] <faron> again...not that I'm really worried about anything
[01:19] <deserteagle> britt, so the CD installer won't work for ya?
[01:19] <Aryeh> eremite, Wow... straight to the troll card. I'm going to pretend like you just don't exist now...
[01:19] <eremite> faron: safest thing to do is to never use a computer for the rest of your life.  Ever.
[01:19] <faron> heh heh heh I hear ya
[01:19]  * eremite /ignores Aryeh 
[01:19] <iflema> disable cd booting in bios and add a bios boot password to limit access
[01:19] <[[thufir]]> how do enable ctrl-alt-backspace to kill xterm?
[01:20] <hal> I need to run the command   iwconfig wlan0 power off   on boot, but regardless of whether anyone logs in.  where is best to put it, please?
[01:20] <britt> deserteagle: so the deal is this - i made a ubuntu alternate install image for this computer. I can only boot from the PCMCIA cdrom, but i cant use my pcmcia wireless card to complete the install ;)
[01:20] <deserteagle> bloodrock, but what I don't understand is: if it was booting before and all I did was copy paste files that didn't even touch the boot partition, why won't it load now? this is soooo frustrating
[01:20] <faron> hey eremite...thanks for the info anyway my friend
[01:20] <greezmunkey> hal, you just don't want to use that device, ever?
[01:21] <hal> greezmunkey: no, it's not that - it just disables power management
[01:21] <deserteagle> britt, then... hmm... well, if you already installed it, just download each package, copy to a jump drive and install on the other PC, no?
[01:21] <bloodrock> deserteagle, well what folders did you copy paste
[01:21] <histo> britt: you shouldn't need wireless to complete the install
[01:21] <hal> and power management causes the if to stop working
[01:21]  * gaveen could tell hal if he opens the pod bay door an let him in
[01:21] <billy>  i know this probably isnt the plave to ask but how do i make a html page come up straight away on x10 hosting?my page is http://mafiakingdom.x10hosting.com/ youll see what i mean
[01:22] <hal> even pinging something from the host doesn't wake it up
[01:22] <deserteagle> bloodrock, all except /boot (which was empty either way since it's a different partition) /tmp /mnt /dev /proc and /media
[01:22] <phongphrai> Could someone help me please. In Glade or GTK coding, how can I have a GtkTextView that acts similar to terminal (that is previous entered lines not editable )
[01:22]  * hal acts as gaveen 's high-tech doorman
[01:22] <fabio333> phongphra: programming stuff
[01:22] <histo> billy: you need to have a index.html
[01:22] <fabio333> get the gtk reference...
[01:22] <Losha> [[thufir]]: ctrl-alt-backspace kills your entire X server, not just an xterm. A mentat should know that...
[01:23] <histo> billy: rename test.html to index.html or edit he apache conf and change the default page.
[01:23] <bloodrock> deserteagle, k why did you copy paste those folder that is what prob messed your system up
[01:23] <billy> how do i do that ive got one but it comes up as a directory?
[01:23] <billy> alright cheers m8
[01:23] <eremite> Losha: nope.  ctrl alt bksp has been changed to something like super k prntscrn
[01:24] <deserteagle> bloodrock, ummm: 1) because I needed my previous setup and files 2) why would it mess it up if I didn't even touch the boot folder
[01:24] <histo> billy: just mv test.html index.html
[01:24] <timmy54321> hi if i upgrade my ubuntu 9.10 to ubuntu studio 9.10 will it erase everything and change my customisable settings back to default
[01:24] <Losha> eremite: That depends on which release you're running, strictly speaking...
[01:24] <eremite> Losha: the two most recent do not have it.
[01:24] <gaveen> hal, you could place the command in /etc/profile
[01:25] <Losha> eremite: I'm still running 8.04 LTS. I'm sure I'm not alone...
[01:25] <eremite> Losha: compiz users can still set it back to the original, though.
 still there
[01:25] <hal> gaveen: that doesn't only run when someone logs in?
[01:25] <smerz> timmy54321, no most settings will remain. It is a BETA though so unless you want to upgrade for something specific i'd recommend against it
[01:25] <eremite> Losha: any particular reason for running an old OS?
[01:25] <billy> thanks for that m8 its working now : )
[01:25] <[[thufir]]> how do I enable "zap" ctrl-alt-backspace?
[01:25] <histo> billy: np
[01:25] <bloodrock> deserteagle, because 9.10 and 9.04 are a bit diff and what worked with 9.04 would not work with 9.10
[01:25] <sam555> hello all!
[01:25] <eremite> !hi | sam555
[01:25] <deserteagle> bloodrock, o.O 9.04?
[01:25] <Losha> eremite: the main reason: stability...
[01:25] <timmy54321> ubuntu studio 9.10 is beta??
[01:26] <ZykoticK9> !dontzap > [[thufir]]
[01:26] <deserteagle> bloodrock, both the install cd and the backup were at 9.10
[01:26] <sam555> I installed ubuntu 9.10 for a friend that has never used linux before.  They continually are having problems and I'm wonder if I should just put windows 2000 on their computer :(
[01:26] <Losha> ZykoticK9: thank you...
[01:26] <deserteagle> yes
[01:26] <sam555> It's kinda a waste of my time if they can't use it on their own :(
[01:26] <randomusr> offtopic for a moment, does anyone here have qwest or other dsl?
[01:26] <eremite> sam555: LOL!  Nope.
 it took me several hours to figure out the dontzap trick
[01:26] <ZykoticK9> Losha, your welcome :)
[01:26] <dmdevotee> hey, how can i create a launcher that executes a sh file?
[01:26] <sam555> first she can't use her ipod to drag and drop songs using rhythm box
[01:26] <DarkStar1> ANy knowledgeable samba users here?? (Yes I've joined #samba but no one is alive there)
[01:26] <eremite> sam555: what problems are they having?  Linux copmputers can do almost everything Windows can, for free.
[01:26] <sam555> now she can't play movies with vlc or the movie player that is included
[01:26] <phongphrai> fabio333, synopsis of functions should tell me that?
[01:27] <kpomeroy> I am trying to install a .deb but it says a software management tool is running but i don't have synaptic, the update manager or the terminal open. What else could be causing the problem?
[01:27] <smerz> timmy54321, oh my apologies. 9.10 is stable so go ahead :) sorry
[01:27] <bloodrock> deserteagle,  oh yeah you used a new hdd forgot so the folders you copy pasted were for the old hdd so the uuid is different from the new hdd
[01:27] <eremite> sam555: has she installed the "restriced extras" packages?
[01:27] <Losha> sam555: there are worse solutions than going back to windows...
[01:27] <randomusr> sam555, are the proper codecs installed?
[01:27] <dmdevotee> i tried to make a launcher with the command sh /home/dmdevotee/djl.sh (the file exists and it haves all permissions)
 you want a part of the text to be editale, right?
[01:27] <dmdevotee> but nothing happens when i click at the launcher
[01:27] <WhiteDawn> sam555: dont switch people, it will make your head hurt. Ignorance is bliss, but linux is more fun ;)
[01:27] <deserteagle> bloodrock, umm... but wouldn't that be in the /boot/grub/grub.cfg file? (which I didn't touch for that same reason)
[01:28] <bloodrock> desert the folders were set to read the uuid of old hdd
[01:28] <sam555> WhiteDawn: ?
[01:28] <eremite> Losha: its hardly recommended that people downgrade to Windows 2000 from Ubuntu, especially since they simply cannot play a video due to not having the codecs installed.
 "ignorance is bliss" is an alan's parsong song
[01:28] <deserteagle> bloodrock, which folders?
[01:28] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, use gnome-terminal -x /pathto/file.sh
[01:28] <sam555> eremite: let me check about the restricted packages, but what will that do?
[01:28] <timmy54321> sooo im confused upgrading from the standard ubuntu 9.10 to ubuntu studio 9.10 would be ok and settings will remain
 anyway the GtkTextView show the text in the TextBuffer, there you can use a Tab and set it as editable or not editable
[01:28] <bloodrock> deserteagle,  yes but will also ber in the /dev folder
[01:28] <phongphrai> fabio333, yes one part is and the other isnt , both in the same textview
[01:28] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, make sure the script is executable
[01:28] <deserteagle> bloodrock, again, I didn't touch the /dev folder
[01:29] <eremite> sam555: you need the restricted extras package to play mp3s etc.  Open the software center and search for it.
[01:29] <Losha> eremite: I agree, it probably shouldn't be the first resort, but for some people, it's a good solution...
[01:29] <sam555> Randomur: who would I tell re: codecs?
[01:29] <eremite> Losha: Windows 200 for ANYTHING other than shooting practice is not recommended., not even by Micr$oft junkies.
[01:29] <watatem> what is the := operator in export command in a script?
[01:29] <dmdevotee> Forkbomb, thanks, where i have to type " gnome-terminal -x /pathto/file.s"?
[01:30] <randomusr> samm555, follow eremite's instructions regarding restricted extra's
[01:30] <eremite> sam555: just install the restricted extras package, all problems solved hopefully.
[01:30] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, right click the desktop -> create launcher
[01:30] <WhiteDawn> eremite: windows 2000 makes a great abuse operating system for testing viruses in virtual box
[01:30] <bloodrock> deserteagle,  i take it you put /boot on a seperate partitian
[01:30] <eremite> WhiteDawn: ie; SHooting practice.
[01:30] <Gelfling> i still have a computer running windows 2k
[01:30] <Losha> timmy54321: in theory yes, you can convert to ubuntu studio by adding the right packages. In practice, it's a lot of work, and probably not a well tested upgrade because so few people do it....
[01:30] <deserteagle> bloodrock, yes, both times (my old and new setup)
[01:30] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, put the gnome-terminal command in the command box
[01:30] <Gelfling> and one running Windows ME
[01:30] <eremite> Gelfling: im sorry.
[01:31] <eremite> really.
[01:31] <randomusr> there is only two things I have trouble with on linux today. Playing BluRay, and outputting to HDMI
[01:31] <Gelfling> the hard drive is failing in the ME one
[01:31] <Gelfling> so i can't do anything with it
[01:31] <gaveen> hal, sorry for the delay, need to crash soon. If your system uses a /etc/rc.sysinit you can place the command there
[01:31] <randomusr> everything else just works
[01:31] <bloodrock> desert k boot was only folder you didn't copy
[01:31] <deserteagle> yah
[01:32] <gregory57> Hi all. I am having problems with memory I guess. When I boot into Ubuntu and open Firefox I immediatly go into swap.
[01:32] <deserteagle> lol, it does that
[01:32] <gregory57> Is this normal? 512 megs of ram.
 drop the plugins
[01:32] <deserteagle> ummm... maybe not THAT much
[01:32] <Losha> watatem: I think it's bash syntax, do man bash and then type /:= to find some info on it...
[01:32] <britt> histo: so the alternative install does not need to download packages from apt? im pretty sure it has to connect to download the apt packages to complete the install....
[01:32] <fabio333> and get rid of the .firefox folder
[01:32] <sam555> eremite: are the restricted packages located under the synaptic package manager?
[01:32] <bloodrock> deserteagle, i checked backward and you said you copied /dev /mnt /media /proc and a couple others
[01:33] <deserteagle> gregory57, yeah, that: try it in safe mode
[01:33] <decomp505> Hi all - anyone know why I can't get nicotine+ to connect
[01:33] <watatem> Losha, thanks a lot =)
[01:33] <hal> gaveen: that's ok   thanks for the answer.  That file does not exist, but rc.local does
[01:33] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, did you get that? :)
[01:33] <deserteagle> bloodrock, actually, it said i copied all -except- those
[01:33] <eremite> sam555: yes, but it may be easier for her to search in APPLICATIONS > UBUNTU SOFTWARE CENTER
[01:33] <hipitihop> I have a bluetooth keyboard/mouse which pair via 'sudo hidd --search' but constantly timeout and need to run hidd --search again, very frustrating, any suggestions ?
[01:33] <gregory57> fabio....which? All I have is adblocker.
[01:33] <deserteagle> bloodrock, all except /boot (which was empty either way since it's a different partition) /tmp /mnt /dev /proc and /media
[01:33] <greezmunkey> hal: Did you get an answer yet?
[01:33] <dmdevotee> ForkBomb, putted gnome-terminal -x /home/dmdevotee/djl/djl.sh into the command box, saved, then clicked the launcher, nothing occurs
[01:34] <gregory57> deserteagle, good idea.
[01:34] <dmdevotee> only opens a terminal , and it closes in a half second
[01:34] <SpudDogg> whassup all
[01:34] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, are you printing stuff to a terminal window? or just executing a command?
[01:34] <bloodrock> deserteagle,  oh ok sorry well you musta copied something that had uuid of old in it to the new is what i think happened
[01:34] <eremite> dmdevotee: is the .sh file enabled to execute as a program?
[01:34] <Losha> dmdevotee: does /home/dmdevotee/djl/djl.sh run by hand from the terminal?
[01:35] <F0rkBomb> Losha, he needs to read -p it to stop it closing :)
[01:35] <hal> greezmunkey: kind of,   do you think it should be in rc.local or /etc/init/rc-sysinit.conf ?
[01:35] <dmdevotee> thir question, yes
[01:35] <Losha> bloodrock: if it helps, only grub and /etc/fstab use uuids normally...
[01:35] <dmdevotee> second question yes, it haves all permissions
[01:35] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, at the end of your shell script, add "read -p "Press any key to continue..."
[01:35] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, without the quotes
[01:35] <gregory57> deserteagle, I've also noticed in top that java is running all the time. Is this normal?
[01:35] <greezmunkey> hal: Are you dealing with a laptop?
[01:36] <deserteagle> gregory57, not to my knowledge
[01:36] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, so like this: read -p "Press any key to continue..."
[01:36]  * SpudDogg is trying to figure out something clever to type into his terminal...
[01:36] <hal> greezmunkey: no
[01:36] <deserteagle> gregory57, but I could be mistaken
[01:36] <Losha> dmdevotee: if F0rkBomb's suggestion doesn't work, I'd try /bin/sh -c /home/dmdevotee/djl/djl.sh as the launch command next..
[01:36] <[[thufir]]> how do disable don't zap, not in gnome.  cannot find ~.xinitrc
[01:36] <gregory57> huh......
[01:36] <bloodrock> Losha, if so then he copied his old etc folder over his new one
[01:36] <F0rkBomb> Losha, it works cause thats what i use
[01:36] <Losha> bloodrock: I've done worse...
[01:36] <deserteagle> [[thufir]], it's now an issue with gconf-editor iirc
[01:36] <F0rkBomb> Losha,  the problem is his script is executing and the terminal closes without prompting
[01:37] <histo> britt: correct you don't need to download anything just configure network later
[01:37] <Losha> F0rkBomb: what does his script do, anyway?
[01:37] <histo> britt: the alternate intall should have all the necessary packages on the cjd.
[01:37] <Losha> !dontzap
[01:37] <F0rkBomb> Losha, *shrug* he just wants to open a script from a launcher
[01:37] <bloodrock> deserteagle, here an idea get to your grub folder get the uuid form the grub.cfg file
[01:37] <sam555> eremite: thanks for the help, but I'm going with win2k.  I don't want to have to continually support her and it's just easier.  I myself have ubuntu and it's fine for me to find help, but for others....they're on their own.
[01:37] <brutus> http://myutc.org/index.htm
[01:38] <[[thufir]]> that link from ubotto gives bad info, that's what I'm saying,  it says to edit .xinitrc
[01:38] <Losha> F0rkBomb: depending on what it does, he might not even want/need an xterm. I thought  he was just trying to get the script to run when he clicks on it...
[01:38] <bloodrock> deserteagle,  ah no drop it that won't work since you overwrote the etc folder
[01:38] <jerry_t> Hello  , trouble with  9.10   It  goes to  B&WS  and  frezze  ., any one else  have  this   ?
[01:38] <deserteagle> eh?
[01:38] <Losha> [[thufir]]: the layout options thing didn't work?
[01:38] <myrl> do you know how to control a windows vista computer from ubuntu?
[01:38] <deserteagle> bloodrock, /etc? what about it?
[01:39] <deserteagle> myrl, VNC
[01:39] <eremite> sam555: it takes about 30 seconds to install that package and then everything should work fine.  There should be NO reasons somone cant figure out how to use Ubuntu if they use Windows, especially when they have no skills in computers (which means no need for the fine art of terminal-fu).  Your solution will only cause problems, Win2k is a trap for viruses.  Dont forget she will need to installa  bunch of codecs in Windows too.
[01:39] <myrl> itried it
[01:39] <dmdevotee> both solutions didn't work
[01:39] <Losha> myrl: you can install a vnc server on windows and then use a vnc client on Ubuntu...
[01:39] <myrl> ok
[01:39] <myrl> thanks
[01:39] <Losha> dmdevotee: what does your script do?
[01:39] <deserteagle> myrl, IIRC, there's also a tool to connect to Window's own "Remote Desktop" protocol from ubuntu
[01:40] <myrl> what if I don't have access to the vista computer?
[01:40] <dmdevotee> this is the script: http://pastebin.com/hmifCxMv
[01:40] <bloodrock> deserteagle,  you copied your old etc folder over your new one
[01:40] <deserteagle> myrl, -.- then you're in the wrong channel
[01:40] <myrl> ok
[01:40] <nikin> I encountered a strange thing today... that my old mobilevideo converting script fails to run on Karmic becouse of the removal of libfaac support from libavcodec. Is there a reson why the ubuntu developers have thrown out the support?
[01:40] <Losha> deserteagle: there *is* an rdesktop command. Dunno if it works for vista...
[01:40] <deserteagle> bloodrock, yes, how would that screw it up?
[01:40] <deserteagle> myrl, i would suggest something like neworder.box.sk for those questions :p
[01:41] <myrl> if im on the wrong channel, then which is the right one?
[01:41] <greezmunkey> hal: This looks pretty simple, I haven't tried it though: http://en.kioskea.net/faq/3348-ubuntu-executing-a-script-at-startup-and-shutdown
[01:41] <ZykoticK9> nikin, it wasn't ubuntu - they are trying to sort the issue out with upstream ffmpeg - who removed AAC audio due to licence issues
[01:41] <dmdevotee> in fact, it's not my script, it's a downloaded script to run DJL
[01:41] <Losha> nikin: I wonder if it's another of those licensing things. Check out www.medibuntu.org
[01:41] <deserteagle> myrl, goto www.neworder.box.sk and look for their IRC channel
[01:41] <F0rkBomb> I think dmdevotee is sleeping, Losha :P
[01:42] <ZykoticK9> nikin, see bug for details https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/faac/+bug/374900
[01:42] <dmdevotee> hahahaha
[01:42] <F0rkBomb> oh there you are! :D
[01:42] <myrl> ok
[01:42] <nikin> ZykoticK9: i see, then i have to come up with an other way to encode videos for my mobile :S First AMR and now this... unbelieveable.
[01:42] <hal> greezmunkey: yeah,  I suppose I could do it like that, but there is no need for a Kill script, so I feel there is a more simple solution
[01:42] <ZykoticK9> nikin, check out handbrake
[01:42] <hal> greezmunkey: I think rc.local is the easiest way
[01:43] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, your script compiles a python file or something?
[01:43] <bloodrock> deserteagle,  wouldn't fstab which is how drive is mounted be pointing to old drive
[01:43] <myrl> so many spammers here....
[01:43] <dmdevotee> yes i think so
[01:43] <F0rkBomb> myrl, so many questions that need answering :)
[01:43] <myrl> lol
[01:43] <Losha> dmdevotee: looks like your script requires *arguments* to be passed in e.g. a directory?
[01:43] <greezmunkey> hal: The "script at shutdown" part is optional I think!
[01:43] <deserteagle> bloodrock, hmm... you got a point, I completely forgot about the /etc/fstab file
[01:43] <Iceman_B|SSH> yo o/
[01:43] <myrl> im new to ubuntu
[01:43] <nikin> ZykoticK9: i have mmc wich converts fine... just it is not command line, and if i am not wrong it uses the license probematic ffmpeg.
[01:43] <deserteagle> \O what up
[01:43] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, are you dragging a folder to the launcher by any chance?
[01:44] <Losha> myrl: are there? We don't allow spammers. It's just a really busy channel...
[01:44] <ZykoticK9> nikin, handbrake has a cli version as well as gui
[01:44] <hal> yeah, you are right, but still I think there is a more "appropriate" way
[01:44] <Iceman_B|SSH> being pissed on my house mates
[01:44] <Iceman_B|SSH> thats whats up :)
[01:44] <deserteagle> myrl, ok: are you or are you not trying to hack into a vista?
[01:44] <myrl> ok
[01:44] <dmdevotee> but when i do "sudo sh jdl.sh " in terminal, it works fine, it executes the program (but i have to type root pass)
[01:44] <SpudDogg> wow, something is f00ked on my system :S
[01:44] <nikin> ZykoticK9: ohh didnt know that... and what does it use for encoding?
[01:44] <myrl> almost
[01:44] <myrl> my bro is on vista
[01:44] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, if so you need to pass %F to the terminal and handle arguments
[01:44] <deserteagle> myrl, if you are: what I said previously still applies
[01:44] <root___> Hey all, im on Lucid and i need to install an older version kerenl 2.6.31-20 to be exact is there anyway i can do it through apt-get or would i have to wget the debs and dpkg them?
[01:44] <ZykoticK9> nikin, it's own encoder
[01:44] <Iceman_B|SSH> how can I use the command line to investigate what hosts on my network are using bandwith, and how much of it ?
[01:44] <Losha> Iceman_B|SSH: please keep your domestic sex life details to yourself...
[01:44] <myrl> i want to hack my brother's computer
[01:44] <myrl> ok
[01:44] <greezmunkey> hal: Well, I found a myriad of techniques on google, pick your poison :)
[01:44] <Iceman_B|SSH> Losha: I am
[01:44] <myrl> is that bad?
[01:45] <Iceman_B|SSH> my house mates aren't
[01:45] <nikin> ZykoticK9: does that help with license issues?
[01:45] <root___> myrl: use a hatchet or ax
[01:45] <Iceman_B|SSH> >_<
[01:45] <F0rkBomb> myrl, install a VNC server on it, open a network port, connect via Rdesktop, have fun
[01:45] <myrl> ok
[01:45] <deserteagle> myrl, ummm, yes. No support for you!
[01:45] <myrl> :)
[01:45] <WhiteDawn> myrl: no its not, its very fun, also record a youtube video
[01:45] <ZykoticK9> nikin, it doesn't have the license issues - only ffmpeg has that
[01:45] <deserteagle> FINE F0rkBomb enable the hacker -.-
[01:45] <myrl> ok
[01:45] <F0rkBomb> deserteagle, its his brothers PC
[01:45] <myrl> lol
[01:45] <eremite> !op | myrl
[01:45] <deserteagle> and? he's still hacking! that's a no no
[01:46] <nikin> ZykoticK9: i see... it is not in the repos :S
[01:46] <F0rkBomb> deserteagle, hardly Whitehall ;)
[01:46] <Losha> myrl: keep it up, you're this close ---> ' '
[01:46] <myrl> um what are we talking about?
[01:46] <illusive> Hacking isn't really a no-no. Just as long as he learns from it and puts it to good use.
[01:46] <dmdevotee> forkbomb: dunno, i never had to pass arguments to this script
[01:46] <Myrtti> !offtopic
[01:46] <root___> wget it is
[01:46] <Myrtti> Move on
[01:46] <ZykoticK9> nikin, deb available on site http://handbrake.fr/
[01:46] <Iceman_B|SSH> if he wants to hack, let him hack. from the looks of it he won't get very far....
[01:46] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, right, ok lets start from fresh. you want a launcher to run your script?
[01:46] <myrl> lol
[01:46] <dmdevotee> yep
[01:46] <Iceman_B|SSH> but maybe im just pred
[01:46] <hal> greezmunkey: hehe, yeah, I do appreciate it - thank you! :)  I went for /etc/rc.local  (/etc/init.d/rc.local explains what it's for)
[01:47] <Iceman_B|SSH> prej
[01:47] <Iceman_B|SSH> whatst hat word
[01:47] <deserteagle> Iceman_B|SSH, wow, nice :p
[01:47] <SpudDogg> Does anyone know why I might be getting this when I try to 'update-manager -d'?  http://pastebin.com/2S42xj4B
[01:47] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, you dont pass args to it, yu just want it to run?
[01:47] <dmdevotee> yep
[01:47] <eremite> Iceman_B|SSH:  he can heack all he wants, but if he wants to learn how to hack he cannot do it here.
[01:47] <deserteagle> Iceman_B|SSH, prejudging?
[01:47] <myrl> please test my website too http://68.5.244.72/
[01:47] <Iceman_B|SSH> deserteagle: thats the one
[01:47] <deserteagle> what eremite said
[01:47] <Trek> !ot | myrl
[01:47] <dmdevotee> like i would do manually
[01:47] <greezmunkey> hal: cool!
[01:47] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, re-paste your script and link me
[01:47] <Losha> Iceman_B|SSH: he can hack all he wants, discussion of it is off-topic here...
[01:47] <Iceman_B|SSH> eremite: ah, that I agree with
[01:47] <myrl> ok
[01:47] <SwimmingRat> ubottu - I totally understand and support that discussion moving on.
[01:47] <dmdevotee> http://pastebin.com/hmifCxMv
[01:47] <nikin> ZykoticK9: oh from the website i see that i did use this on windows :D :D
[01:48] <Iceman_B|SSH> so, in the spirit of staying on topic
[01:48] <Losha> dmdevotee: I repeat: it looks like your script requires *arguments* to be passed in e.g. a directory?
[01:48] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, on a separate line... add read -p "Press any key to continue..."
[01:48] <Iceman_B|SSH> how can I see the bw usage of a host on my network ?
[01:48] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, that will halt the terminal and wait for input to close
[01:49] <dmdevotee> too strange
[01:49] <kpomeroy> I am trying to install a .deb but it says a software management tool is running but i don't have synaptic, the update manager or the terminal open. Are there any other tools that could be causing the problem?
[01:49] <dmdevotee> look at this:
[01:49] <deserteagle> how do I get the UUID of a hard drive without hal-device?
[01:49] <Losha> Iceman_B|SSH: I found this on google: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/bandwidth-monitoring-tools-for-linux.html
[01:49] <dmdevotee> if i type in console
[01:49] <dmdevotee> sudo sh /home/dmdevotee/djl/djl.sh
[01:49] <dmdevotee> simply, it works!
[01:49] <deserteagle> kpomeroy, are you running apt-get somewhere in a console?
[01:49] <dmdevotee> :D
[01:49] <FloodBot2> dmdevotee: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:50] <dmdevotee> but i want a launcher for that
[01:50] <kpomeroy> I don't have a console open
[01:50] <deserteagle> dmdevotee, what panel program you using?
[01:50] <deserteagle> kpomeroy, type this into a console: sudo killall -9 apt-get
[01:50] <Iceman_B|SSH> Losha: thanks, Ill check that out
[01:50] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, check your pastebin, i amended your script
[01:50] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, http://pastebin.com/ztj5MEHK
[01:50] <Iceman_B|SSH> the irony of course is that my house mates are using all the upstream capacity
[01:50] <Iceman_B|SSH> ah, it finally loaded
[01:51] <Losha> deserteagle: I thought only partitions have uuids. Try the vol_id command, or the blkid command...

[01:51] <voyager640> I have a computer with ubuntu moblin remix 9.10 installed.  I'm trying to figure out how to get a standard GNOME desktop without having to wipe moblin off it and starting over.  any thoughts?
[01:51] <greezmunkey> yikes, sorry!
[01:51] <deserteagle> Losha omg I LOVE YOU O_O
[01:51] <dmdevotee> forkbomb, ok, i changed the script, and nao?
[01:51] <kpomeroy> "apt-get: no process found" That's what it brought back
[01:51]  * Losha blushes...
[01:52] <F0rkBomb> everyone loves Losha
[01:52] <voyager640> I love Losha already and I've never been here before ;p
[01:52]  * Losha blushes even more...
[01:52] <deserteagle> kpomeroy, type this into a console: sudo killall -9 synaptic
[01:52] <F0rkBomb> I've been here before, under many guises
[01:52] <voyager640> Now if I could just get a standard GNOME desktop on this damn machine :-(
[01:52] <dmdevotee> deserteagle: panel program? do you mean system-preferences-main menu?
[01:53] <deserteagle> dmdevotee, gnome-panel
[01:53] <kpomeroy> "synaptic: no process found" is what it says
[01:53] <dmdevotee> dunno whay do you mean, but all by default installation lol
[01:53] <dmdevotee> sorry
[01:53] <deserteagle> kpomeroy, :| sheesh lol
[01:53] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, just check out your pastebin
[01:53] <booksbuggy> my firefox won't let me remove the incompatible extensions
[01:54] <kpomeroy> I'm running the 10.04 beta, could that be factor? some kind of bug?
[01:54] <Losha> voyager640: I don't know anything about moblin, so I'm hesitant to suggest the usual thing, which is to do apt-get install ubuntu-desktop. Dunno what that'll do on moblin...
[01:54] <tiki> Hey, is it wise to upgrade my machine to lucid beta?
[01:54] <F0rkBomb> tiki, are you adventurous?
[01:55] <dmdevotee> forkbomb: you changed anything ?
[01:55] <voyager640> Losha- someone said it killed their system completely.  So I'm a little nervous.  I tried apt-get install gnome and it said it depends ont hings that are "not going to be installed"
[01:55] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, http://pastebin.com/ztj5MEHK
[01:55] <tiki> F0rkBomb: I am, only if it means less problems with skype and pulseaudio
[01:55] <Losha> tiki: it isn't stable yet, if that's what you mean....
[01:55] <tiki> Losha: I guess I'll wait then
[01:55] <F0rkBomb> tiki, expect more problems, at any moment...but I like taking risks lol
[01:56] <booksbuggy> is there any other way of  uninstalling a firefox extension  without using the add on list?
[01:56] <Losha> voyager640: dunno, like I said, I never heard of moblin. If I were you, I'd do a full backup before experimenting...
[01:56] <FeasibilityStudy> I am getting this error when trying to run a daily update
[01:56] <FeasibilityStudy> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[01:56] <tiki> F0rkBomb: I won't upgrade, but do you know how to fix pulse?
[01:56] <FeasibilityStudy> anyone know WTF is up with this?  I cant update my system anymore
[01:56] <dmdevotee> ok, changed....and.... nothing happens when i double click on launcher
[01:56] <Losha> tiki: it's ok for a play machine, not for your main workhorse...
[01:56] <voyager640> Losha- how would i backup a system that doesn't have a cdrom drive or a disk drive?
[01:56] <booksbuggy> FeasibilityStudy run sudo dpkg --configure -a in terminal
[01:56] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, whats in the command box of your launchers properties?
[01:56] <tiki> Losha: its my main.
[01:57] <FeasibilityStudy> booksbuggy: I did and it still does the same thing
[01:57] <tiki> Losha: I only have one T_T
[01:57] <booksbuggy> hmmm then go to synaptics and look for broken packages
[01:57] <tiki> F0rkBomb: or force skype to use alsa?
[01:57] <dmdevotee> i tried both launchers:
[01:57] <dmdevotee> /bin/sh -c /home/dmdevotee/djl/djl.sh
[01:57] <Losha> voyager640: well, you need *somewhere* to put the data?
[01:57] <dmdevotee> gnome-terminal -x /home/dmdevotee/djl/djl.sh
[01:57] <booksbuggy> FeasibilityStudy, go look for broken packages in synaptics
[01:57] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, well the 2nd one should work, its what i use for my md5checker
[01:57] <FeasibilityStudy> booksbuggy: I dont use synaptics.
[01:57] <tiki> Is there any way to force Skype to use alsa instead of pulse? Pulse sucks.
[01:57] <dmdevotee> this is written into "command" box of launchr
[01:58] <Losha> tiki: then wait. After a couple of months, the worst problems will be worked out (hopefully)...
[01:58] <booksbuggy> FeasibilityStudy, most likely something happened before and broke a package
[01:58] <tiki> Losha: isn't it end of april?
[01:58] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, go into properties of the script and see if "Allow executing file as program" is checked
[01:58] <booksbuggy> FeasibilityStudy, i am saying use the synaptic package manager to check for broken packages
[01:58] <dmdevotee> forkbomb: but , with the script that works with you, it need root passwrod?
[01:58] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, no
[01:59] <Losha> tiki: that's the *release* date, doesn't guarantee it's ready. In fact, it pretty much guarantees it won't be. Ever see Lucy & Ethel in the chocolate factory episode?
[01:59] <dmdevotee> forkbomb: yes, is checked
[01:59] <tiki> Losha: huh?
[01:59] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, then i really cannot see what the problem is
[01:59] <dmdevotee> so, the problem could be there?
[02:00] <booksbuggy> anyone have any idea of how to remove a firefox add on with terminal?
[02:00] <dmdevotee> maybe it works for you because your script, (or similar) doesn't ask for root pass, but mine does
[02:00] <dmdevotee> ???
[02:00] <Losha> tiki: never mind, the release date is fixed and can't be moved, it doesn't mean the code is ready...
[02:01] <tiki> Losha: got it. I'll try my luck when its released anyways.
[02:01] <tiki> Losha: Its an LTS, so chances are that its going to work well enough
[02:01] <F0rkBomb> ok
[02:02] <Losha> tiki: You can always check in #ubuntu+1 to see what people are saying about it....
[02:02] <eremite> Losha: The LTS should be fine, Karmic is great.
[02:02] <Losha> eremite: I ran karmic for a while, but grub2 and gdm2 got on my nerves, not to mention sound issues...
[02:03] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, http://pastebin.com/fj0bvheb try that
[02:03] <eremite> Losha: no problems on my end other than sound issues, too>  However, I got those sorted out with ease.
[02:03] <booksbuggy> karmic is not that bad if it wasn't that out of the two speaks i have only one is playing -.-
[02:03] <eremite> Losha: I fail to see why grub would make you switch back.
[02:03] <alphonso> can anyone help with a ktorrent error i'm getting?
[02:04] <eremite> booksbuggy: sounds like you have your speakres panned.
[02:04] <dmdevotee> nothing at all :_(
[02:04] <booksbuggy> panned o.O?
[02:04] <booksbuggy> eremite, what is panned o.O?
[02:04] <FeasibilityStudy> booksbuggy: and I am saying I dont use synaptic..I use aptitude
[02:05] <Losha> eremite: I was multibooting, karmic, 8.04, debian, XP. I got fed up trying to configure grub2...
[02:05] <alphonso> what happened to everyone?
[02:05] <WhiteDawn> woah what just happend?
[02:05] <WhiteDawn> idle purge?
[02:05] <eremite> booksbuggy: yes, panned to the left or to teh right.  Its the term used to describe sound coming from either the left or right speakers.
[02:05] <alphonso> when I try to open the help file in ktorrent I get this error message: The file or folder help:/ktorrent/index.html does not exist.
[02:05] <alphonso> anyone know how to repair this?
[02:05] <Losha> alphonso: are you running kde?
[02:05] <alphonso> yes
[02:06] <booksbuggy> eremite, eh actually the balance is set to the middle unless the sound interface is lying again -.-
[02:06] <eremite> Losha: what configuring would you need to do to grub? Other than changing boot order, I cannot see a reson to play with grub settings.
[02:06] <WhiteDawn> alphonso: you could try "man ktorrent"
[02:06] <alphonso> okay, from terminal?
[02:06] <F0rkBomb> sorry about the mass D/C everyone, my DeLorean was struck by lightning
[02:06] <WhiteDawn> alphonso: yeah from terminal
[02:06] <booksbuggy> FeasibilityStudy, are you sure you "actually Read" what i said?
[02:06] <Losha> eremite: the shell scripts never got the config correct. I got fed up hand editing grub.cfg files...
[02:06] <alphonso> thanks, WhiteDawn - that worked
[02:06] <econtomawesome> howdy! I'm using ubuntu 9.10 x64, and I'm curious of the process to make a bootable usb with a ubuntu image without using unetbootin
[02:07] <Presario2500> hey ppl
[02:07] <eremite> booksbuggy: sounds like a specific problem, not common to anyone else.  Probably a hardware problem on yoru behlaf, not a software error from Ubuntu.
[02:07] <FeasibilityStudy> booksbuggy: I am not on Ubuntu, I use Kubuntu and I am not installing Synaptic..Sorry.
[02:07] <Presario2500> what is a really lightweight web browser that I can use with Xubuntu, Firefox is a bit heavy for my system.
[02:07] <eremite> FeasibilityStudy: Karmic is ubuntu and already has Synaptic installed.  You make no sense.
[02:07] <booksbuggy> FeasibilityStudy, hmmm other than apt does kubuntu have a secondary package manager?
[02:07] <booksbuggy> eremite, works fine in windows -.-
[02:07] <eremite> Presario2500: Google Chrome is light and FAST, but Midori is another.  I really do suggest Chrome.
[02:08] <Presario2500> is Midori faster than Chrome?
[02:08] <F0rkBomb> Presario2500, not as polished
[02:08] <alphonso> i use crhome - it's very fast
[02:08] <eremite> Presario2500: No
[02:08] <F0rkBomb> Presario2500, I'd use Chrome
[02:08] <econtomawesome> Presario2500 I use chrome on a netbook, and it is the fastest thing I've seen, but Ive never used Midori
[02:09] <eremite> uSE CHROME, ITS GREAT
[02:09] <Presario2500> ok
[02:09] <WhiteDawn> chrome is nice, but not all websites work
[02:09] <econtomawesome> howdy! I'm using ubuntu 9.10 x64, and I'm curious of the process to make a bootable usb with a ubuntu image without using unetbootin
[02:09] <Presario2500> thanks
[02:09] <FeasibilityStudy> booksbuggy: You didnt read what *I* said.  I said I use aptitude..Not apt, not synaptic
[02:09] <eremite> WhiteDawn: that's because of bad coding on behald of developers.
[02:09] <F0rkBomb> Presario2500, although, take heed...because chrome uses separate tab processes, it can eat ram
[02:10] <WhiteDawn> eremite: if by bad coding you mean the website developers and not chrome, then A+
[02:10] <MaT-dg> WhiteDawn: tell me on, I've yet have to see one
[02:10] <booksbuggy> FeasibilityStudy, well you didn't tell me you were using kubuntu
[02:10] <dmdevotee> can anybody help me? i have a script on /home/dmdevotee/djl/djl.sh, and when i do sudo sh /home/dmdevotee/djl/djl.sh it works fine
[02:10] <dmdevotee> how can i do a launcher for that?
[02:10] <booksbuggy> FeasibilityStudy, okay other than apt does Kubuntu have any other kind of package manager?
[02:11] <eremite> WhiteDawn: of course the webside developers and not chrome.  Chrome passes all tests with flying colors.  Its idiost who dont knwop how to code simple css and html that are to blame.
[02:11] <WhiteDawn> MaT-dg: well TomsHardware wouldent work for awhile, and my school's timetable site still doesnt work, but i dont think you can get onto that
[02:11] <booksbuggy> FeasibilityStudy, well i call them apt :CP
[02:11] <Losha> eremite: those idiots outnumber you....
[02:11] <WhiteDawn> eremite: yeah when i saw 100 on the acid test i was amazed
[02:11] <eremite> Losha: I know.  I fix their problems all day -_-
[02:11] <FeasibilityStudy> booksbuggy: apt != aptitude
[02:12] <WhiteDawn> yeah, what is the difference between apt-get and aptitude?
[02:12] <WhiteDawn> besides the cows
[02:12] <booksbuggy> FeasibilityStudy, just tell me if there is any other package manager existant in kubuntu other than the one you always used?
[02:12] <syx> help
[02:13] <TheTosh> hey ya all
[02:13] <WhiteDawn> syx: just ask question isntead of going help
[02:13] <syx>  /help
[02:13] <eremite> booksbuggy: Kubuntu has aptitude and apt-get, and also synaptic I believe.
[02:13] <Losha> WhiteDawn: they're basically interchangeable, but aptitude is supposed to have better dependency handling. Dunno if it makes any difference in practice. I use apt-get out of habit...
[02:13] <booksbuggy> eremite, FeasibilityStudy <--- Says there is no synaptic for some reason -.-
[02:13] <IdleOne> kubuntu use Adept iirc
[02:13] <TheTosh> http://www.fullflavour.co.nz/
[02:13] <highvolt> Does the package state information located at /var/lib/apt/lists inform apt-get whether a package is installed or not, or is that tracked in another place?
[02:13] <TheTosh> http://www.fullflavour.co.nz/
[02:13] <TheTosh> http://www.fullflavour.co.nz/
[02:13] <WhiteDawn> Losha: ah, ok, thanks
[02:13] <FloodBot3> TheTosh: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:13] <FloodBot1> TheTosh: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:13] <FloodBot2> TheTosh: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:13] <FloodBot4> TheTosh: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:14] <daniskami> Also, aptitude keeps better logs and has a curses interface in case you need it
[02:14] <eremite> booksbuggy: then he doesnt know what he's talking about?
[02:14] <Losha> WhiteDawn: Did you mean supercow powers?
[02:14] <ZykoticK9> Losha, the better dependency hangling is outdated - they are both "more or less" equal nowadays
[02:14] <WhiteDawn> Losha: yes, the super cow powers
[02:14] <IdleOne> !info adept
[02:14] <Losha> ZykoticK9: that accords with my experience...
[02:14] <booksbuggy> eremite, keep on trying to tell him to use synaptics to check for broken packages -.- and he won't listen
[02:14] <MaT-dg> WhiteDawn: your school's timetable doesn't interrest me :P Complain to the coders/principal about that. Tomshardware works fine at first sight...
[02:14] <FeasibilityStudy> eremite: No Kubuntu doesn't have Synaptic.  It uses KPackageGet
[02:14] <Losha> WhiteDawn: did anyone ever find out what 'super cow powers' are?
[02:14] <TheTosh> Hi
[02:14] <kpomeroy> dmdevotee: Do you want to create a launcher on the desktop? If you are running Ubuntu, you would right click on the desktop, and select "Create Launcher...", then name it and connect the shell script to the launcher in the command field.
[02:15] <booksbuggy> FeasibilityStudy, well then use that to look for the broken packages
[02:15] <ZykoticK9> Losha, perhaps I'm just sticking up for apt as it's what i use as well ;)
[02:15] <WhiteDawn> Losha: good question, i just thought it was a in-joke with the two compeeting programs
[02:15] <eremite> FeasibilityStudy: Adept is what you want
[02:15] <booksbuggy> FeasibilityStudy, since if that's the equavlent of synaptics in gnome then it should work pretty much the same thing
[02:15] <econtomawesome> howdy! I'm using ubuntu 9.10 x64, and I'm curious of the process to make a bootable usb with a ubuntu image without using unetbootin
[02:15] <ZykoticK9> Losha, WhiteDawn "apt-get moo" to see the super-cow powers - sudo not required
[02:16] <dmdevotee> kpomeroy: what exactly i have to type on command box, please?
[02:16] <WhiteDawn> ZykoticK9: yeah thats what were talking about
[02:16] <dmdevotee> i tried 2 things and they didn't work
[02:16] <eremite> FeasibilityStudy: you can install synaptic with ease.  sudo apt-get install synaptic    takes 10 seconds to install.
[02:16] <FeasibilityStudy> I dont want or need synaptic
[02:16] <booksbuggy> back to my own question: anyone know if there is a way to remove firefox add ons with terminal?
[02:16] <FeasibilityStudy> I prefer the terminal
[02:16] <Losha> ZykoticK9: is that it? I think I'm disappointed....
[02:16] <IdleOne> eremite: why? he has Adept and can use the terminal to install packages. no need to install Synaptic also
[02:16] <ZykoticK9> WhiteDawn, have you seen aptitude's version?  it's actually even better
[02:17] <eremite> IdleOne: he doesnt seem to know hwo to use it.
[02:17] <WhiteDawn> ZykoticK9: haha yeah
[02:17] <deserteagle> hello?
[02:17] <kpomeroy> dmdevotee: you could type in the command which I believe you said was " /home/dmdevotee/djl/djl.sh" or you could click on the browse button and navigate to the file
[02:17] <IdleOne> FeasibilityStudy: what is it you are trying to install, btw #kubuntu might be a better place for you to ask.
[02:17] <WhiteDawn> i think cowsay should be a default installed package in all distrobutions
[02:18] <booksbuggy> FeasibilityStudy, use adept to find the broken packages before YOUR system actually kills itself
[02:18] <eremite> IdleOne: i believe he's looking to see which packages are installed or broken
[02:18] <deserteagle> there we go... so anyways, why won't GRUB show all the partitions? what could stop grub from listing the different partitions in a hdd?
[02:18] <kalesian> hi, does anyone have any experience with Proliants?
[02:18] <econtomawesome> howdy! I'm using ubuntu 9.10 x64, and I'm curious of the process to make a bootable usb with a ubuntu image without using unetbootin
[02:18] <histo> deserteagle: it doens't see operating systems on them?
[02:18] <eremite> deserteagle: it doesnt list each partition, it lists all OSs
[02:18] <FeasibilityStudy> IdleOne: forget it.  No one here understands even the basics of terminal commands.  My problem has been identified as a bug that has yet to be fixed..
[02:18] <IdleOne> FeasibilityStudy: look for Adept in the K menu. I have never used it but I am sure there is a way to see broken packages with it
[02:18] <ZykoticK9> kalesian, if you don't get an answer in this channel you might want to try #ubuntu-server as well
[02:18] <WhiteDawn> econtomawesome: why wont you use unetbootin?
[02:19] <deserteagle> eremite, in grub rescue> ls  ?
[02:19] <IdleOne> FeasibilityStudy: okie dokie :)
[02:19] <dmdevotee> kpomeroy:
[02:19] <dmdevotee> i typed in the command
[02:19] <deserteagle> histo, it's supposed to show (hd0) (hd0,0) (hd0,1)
[02:19] <dmdevotee> sudo sh /home/dmdevotee/djl/djl.sh
[02:19] <kalesian> ZykoticK9: ahh, good tip.
[02:19] <eremite> deserteagle: you lost me.  I guess you can scratch my statement from the record.
[02:19] <dmdevotee> and didn't work
[02:19] <IdleOne> FeasibilityStudy: sudo dpkg -configure -a? perhaps
[02:19] <deserteagle> eremite, lol
[02:19] <histo> deserteagle: no it only shows operating systems not partitions
[02:19] <dmdevotee> typed sh /home/dmdevotee/djl/djl.sh
[02:19] <Losha> FeasibilityStudy: those are fighting words. I'm an old cli hacker...
[02:19] <dmdevotee> didn't work
[02:19] <FeasibilityStudy> I did that already.  It doesnt help.  It is a bug
[02:20] <kpomeroy> lose the "sudo sh", and try that
[02:20] <histo> !grub > deserteagle
[02:20] <FeasibilityStudy> I am on Lucid.
[02:20] <econtomawesome> WhiteDawn for some reason I keep getting errors when I try to run the iso. Doesn't matter which ISO I use or which pendrive I use
[02:20] <booksbuggy> back to my own question: anyone know if there is a way to remove firefox add ons with terminal?
[02:20] <histo> dmdevotee: you don't need sudo to run it.
[02:20] <IdleOne> FeasibilityStudy: ok, ahh well in beta we call those not yet implemented features :)
[02:20] <Losha> FeasibilityStudy: then you are off-topic here. Get thee to #ubuntu+1 ....
[02:20] <eremite> FeasibilityStudy: WRONG CHANNEL.  You want #ubuntu-1  I think
[02:20] <dmdevotee> histo: so, what i have to do?
[02:20] <ZykoticK9> Losha, he's already there
[02:21] <histo> dmdevotee: chmod a+x /home/dmdevotee/djl/djl.sh
[02:21] <IdleOne> ok let's all back off FeasibilityStudy he knows what the issue is and how/wait to fix it
[02:21] <dmdevotee> histo: i did that
[02:21] <Losha> #ubuntu-1 -- that's brilliant....
[02:21] <WhiteDawn> econtomawesome: try not to use the iso's and download using one of the premade options, I had same issue as you till i did this
[02:21] <histo> dmdevotee: cd /home/dmdevotee/djl
[02:21] <histo> dmdevotee: ./djl.sh
[02:21] <dmdevotee> histo: i want a LAUNCHER
[02:21] <ZykoticK9> Losha, you should suggest -1 as a new channel ;)
[02:22] <Losha> ZykoticK9: it's tempting....
[02:22] <booksbuggy> anyone know how to remove firefox add-ons via terminal?
[02:22] <eremite> booksbuggy: nope, sorry.
[02:22] <deserteagle> dmdevotee, so... what launching program you using?
[02:22] <F0rkBomb> dmdevotee, we've told you about 6 ways to make a launcher for a shell script, and none of them work for you
[02:22] <booksbuggy> dang it -.-
[02:22] <histo> dmdevotee: does it work from terminal?
[02:22] <diego-ch> hi guys i'm trying to install v4l on ubuntu karmic mini, but it fails, says that firedtv files are missing, what can i do ?
[02:22] <dmdevotee> histo: yes
[02:22] <deserteagle> booksbuggy, easiest way: run firefox in safe mode
[02:22] <econtomawesome> WhiteDawn What do you mean? I downloaded the ISO for the ubuntu karmic mini
[02:22] <histo> dmdevotee: okay now right click on desktop and create launcher
[02:22] <econtomawesome> WhiteDawn I didn't create my own iso?
[02:22] <booksbuggy> one of the add on is not compatible and somehow it grayed out the uninstall option -.-
[02:22] <deserteagle> booksbuggy, it'll ask you if you want to disable them, once disabled you can uninstall them
[02:22] <F0rkBomb> histo, been through all this with him about 45 minutes ago :)
[02:22] <histo> dmdevotee: comand will be sh ~/djl/djl.sh
[02:23] <dmdevotee> deserteagle: dunno what program i am using....i only do right click on desktop and create launcher
[02:23] <histo> dmdevotee: if that doens't work try putting it in quotes
[02:23] <booksbuggy> both disable and uninstal are grayed out -.-
[02:23] <WhiteDawn> econtomawesome: there should be a dropdown menu in unetbootin to select a distro
[02:23] <booksbuggy> well nevermind it is diabled
[02:23] <econtomawesome> WhiteDawn ah I see what you mean then
[02:23] <booksbuggy> but it still won't let me uninstall
[02:23] <FeasibilityStudy> And I came here only because no one was responding in ubuntu+1.  Now they are, I am outta here.
[02:23] <econtomawesome> WhiteDawn I'm going to give usb-creator-gtk a go and then try that
[02:23] <kpomeroy> dmdevotee: are you running ubuntu in gnome?
[02:24] <dmdevotee> yes, gnome
[02:24] <diego-ch> can anyone help me ?
[02:24] <WhiteDawn> econtomawesome: good luck
[02:24] <diego-ch> hi guys i'm trying to install v4l on ubuntu karmic mini, but it fails, says that firedtv files are missing, what can i do ?
[02:24] <booksbuggy> FeasibilityStudy, good luck
[02:25] <booksbuggy> deserteagle, how do i run firefox in safe mode
[02:25] <IdleOne> !info firedtv > diego-ch
[02:25] <diego-ch> ok thanks
[02:26] <IdleOne> you got the info?
[02:26] <dmdevotee> histo: sh ~/djl/djl.sh doesn't work, and sh "/home/dmdevotee/djl/djl.sh" doesn't work too (on command box of app launcher)
[02:26] <kpomeroy> dedevotee: ok, do what i told you before, right click on the desktop, select create launcher. In the command field box type in:  /home/dmdevotee/djl/djl.sh and name it whatever you want. It should then work. You don't have to run any commands in the terminal
[02:26] <diego-ch> yes... but i'm trying to install an dibcom usb adapter
[02:26] <IdleOne> !find firedtv > diego-ch
[02:26] <econtomawesome> WhiteDawn it worked! :-D
[02:26] <econtomawesome> adios
[02:27] <booksbuggy> how do i start firefox in safe-mode?
[02:28] <IdleOne> booksbuggy: firefox --safemode in terminal
[02:28] <diego-ch> !find v4l-dvb
[02:28] <histo> dmdevotee: put the sh in the quotes also
[02:28] <booksbuggy> okey dokey
[02:28] <eremite> booksbuggy: firefox -safe-mode   <--- first result in Google.
[02:28] <dmdevotee> name: DJL5 . command: /home/dmdevotee/djl/djl.sh . double click on it: does nothing
[02:28] <booksbuggy> :CP
[02:28] <eremite> what kind of face is :CP?
[02:29] <booksbuggy> creeping even in safe-mode it won't let me uninstall -.- stumble upon toolbar -.-
[02:29] <histo> dmdevotee: hold up let me check something
[02:29] <booksbuggy> :P    C -> huge nose --> :CP
[02:30] <IdleOne> diego-ch: see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/448811 is that what you are experiencing?
[02:30] <eremite> booksbuggy: did you even try researching thsi on yoru own before coming here?  First result in google, again http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Cannot+uninstall+an+add-on
[02:30] <dmdevotee> if i type sudo sh /home/dmdevotee/djl/djl.sh on terminal it works, but i would want a launcher...
[02:30] <IdleOne> eremite: not everybody has strong google fu. pointing that out to them is not helpful.
[02:30] <kpomeroy> dmdevotee: I was wrong, it need to be " /home/dmdevotee/djl/djl.sh", it needs the " ".
[02:31] <dmdevotee> anda if course, i want to learn
[02:31] <histo> dmdevotee: can you launch it without sudo
[02:31] <eremite> IdleOne: pointing out that they should use Google is soemthing positive.  Teaches them to teach themselves, and saves us hassle.  Saves everyone a headache in teh end.
[02:31] <histo> dmdevotee: if not thats the problem
[02:31] <IdleOne> !google | emergion
[02:31] <dmdevotee> histo: without sudo doesn't work
[02:31] <ZykoticK9> dmdevotee, try using gksudo in your launcher
[02:31] <IdleOne> !google | eremite
[02:31] <dsnyders> Hi all!  My windows is pooched.  Is there an ubuntu tool to read a vista event log?
[02:32] <diego-ch> IdleOne: not exactly, i've just installed karmic  then was trying to install v4l-dvb but it fails
[02:32] <eremite> Yeah yeah yeah, I know the botproganda
[02:32] <IdleOne> eremite: ok well then please follow the rules
[02:32] <eggonlea> Hi guys, we could search a Ubuntu package by many methods, like dpkg -S or visit packages.ubuntu.com. But how to find a manpage? E.g. by default I cannot "man XvShmPutImage". How to find and install the correct manpage under Ubuntu? I google'ed this but failed to find an answer. Thanks!
[02:32] <histo> dsnyders: you would need to find where the evenlog is stored on the drive and read it that way
[02:32] <diego-ch> IdleOne: like this http://www.mail-archive.com/ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com/msg09364.html
[02:32] <nava> ?
[02:32] <IdleOne> eremite: if you feel you know better then please join #ubuntu-irc and let them know
[02:32] <nava> ?
[02:32] <band-aid> does anyone know where nautilus shares the samba configurations that are created when you use the GUI to share a folder?
[02:32] <dsnyders> histo, I don't think that they're text files.
[02:32] <eremite> IdleOne: I didnt break any rules.  I asked if they googled it first.  That is not the same as teklling someone to goole it.  \
[02:32] <histo> eggonlea: apropos something
[02:33] <Losha> eremite: I google it for them. In the long run, it saves time...
[02:33] <IdleOne> eremite: "Your honor I didn't shoot  him in the head. I just said I was going to!" still go to jail
[02:33] <histo> dsnyders: it may be.  Windows saves a lot of stuff in plain text and xml in wierd directorys.  If its in the registry or something i'm sure there are tools
[02:33] <histo> dsnyders: either way not really a ubuntu question.
[02:34] <eggonlea> histo: thanks, but "apropos XvShmPutImage" returns nothing.
[02:34] <IdleOne> diego-ch: that is above my head. report a bug I guess
[02:34] <eremite> IdleOne: hardly comparable.  Losha: I did google it for him.  Irrelavant.
[02:34] <Losha> IdleOne: on different charges though...
[02:34] <dmdevotee> zykotick9: thanks, but with gksudo "/home/dmdevotee/djl/djl.sh" does not launch, but it ask for root pass
[02:34] <diego-ch> IdleOne: i'll see what i can do...
[02:34] <tp2> General question here if anyone has any quick advice.  Recently install Ubuntu Server 9.10 on vmware ESXi server and it seems rather slow compared to other unix/linux based guest VMs.  For example, any time I login it takes about an extra 10 seconds or so and then gives me about 20 lines of text about with system info and stats etc.  everything seems to work as it should out of the box install (Lamp server etc) but it just seems 'slow'.
[02:35] <dsnyders> histo, well, is there a general linux channel where I could ask?
[02:35] <histo> eggonlea: what are you trying to do exactly? your original question was confusing
[02:35] <ZykoticK9> dsnyders, ##linux
[02:35] <Losha> eremite: I used to think I could train them, but they outnumber us, so....
[02:35] <histo> dsnyders: you can search synaptic also
[02:35] <WhiteDawn> tp2: there are some packages for hypervisors in synaptic, you can try some of those, i dont really ahve any experience in that subject though
[02:35] <greezmunkey> Losha!
[02:35] <greezmunkey> hehe
[02:36] <eggonlea> histo: I just want to know how to install the CORRECT manpage if I only knows the function name.
[02:36] <tp2> whitedawn - synaptic?  if it would be easier to just google let me know :)
[02:36] <kpomeroy> I am trying to install a .deb but it says a software management tool is running but i don't have synaptic, the update manager or the terminal open. Are there any other tools that could be causing the problem?
[02:37] <eggonlea> Just like we could dpkg -S a file_we_look_for.
[02:37] <histo> dsnyders: http://ask.metafilter.com/15838/Converting-Windows-Event-Viewer-log-files-on-a-nix-platform
[02:37] <WhiteDawn> tp2: new to ubuntu? synaptic is the package manager, its under system/administration/synaptic on the top bar
[02:37] <histo> eggonlea: how did you install the package?
[02:37] <ZykoticK9> kpomeroy, have you tried logging out and back in?
[02:37] <kpomeroy> Yeah I tried that once, I could try it again i guess
[02:38] <WhiteDawn> tp2: you can also launch it through terminal with "gksudo synaptic" although it is a GUI program so make sure you arent cli only
[02:38] <eggonlea> histo: 1) we could "dpkg -S" to find a package name by a filename; 2) how to find a manpage package name by a function name?
[02:39] <ZykoticK9> kpomeroy, logout/login or rebooting is probably the safest option -- but i think you could manually remove the lock as a last resort
[02:39] <histo> eggonlea: manpages don't have package names they come with the package
[02:39] <tp2> whitedawn - very new to ubuntu. all my *nix experience is Sun Solaris/HP-UX/AS400.  Very new to Linux in general.  The way you describe 'under sys/adm/syn top bar' it sounds very gui like?  my install of server sits at command prompt after login etc. did i miss an install option to get the synaptic tool?
[02:39] <histo> eggonlea: you can search the installed man pages with man -k sometext
[02:39] <kpomeroy> Ok I will restart the computer but if it doesn't work what is the override?
[02:40] <ZykoticK9> tp2, server does not have a GUI, text only
[02:40] <WhiteDawn> tp2: ah yeah it is a gui program, you can use apt-get for a cli, make sure you run it as root. Synaptic is just a nice and easy way to search through avalible packages
[02:41] <rocketeerbkw> a file is 777 and I'm a member of the group that has ownership of file. I can't use chmod w/o sudo "operation not permitted" are user owners the only ones able to use chmod?
[02:41] <tp2> whitedawn - ok thx.  i think i will do some google searching on ubuntu and some vm/hypervisor pkgs to speed things up on vmware.  i tried a vmware tools install with my vmware guest mgr but it doesn't seem to work or install anything.
[02:41] <booksbuggy> well then either firefox already killed the toolbar or else there was a bug again.......
[02:41] <Joker_-_> tp2: "apt-get install [PackageName1] [PackageName2]..." (to install a package) "apt-cache search [something]" = search for a package
[02:41] <eggonlea> histo: the problem is that the manpage package is not installed yet, so man -k or apropos cannot help.
[02:41] <ZykoticK9> rocketeerbkw, user owner or root
[02:41] <IdleOne> kpomeroy: sudo rm /var/cache/apt/archives/lock
[02:42] <histo> tp2: apt-cache search hypervisor   will list packages that match that.
[02:42] <rocketeerbkw> ZykoticK9: thx
[02:42] <histo> tp2: then you can sudo apt-get instlal <packagename>
[02:42] <lotus> hey, I'm having issues staying connected / authenticating with a PEAP mschapV2 WPA Enterprise based network at my university.  Does any one have experience with these types of issues?
[02:42] <tp2> joker_-_ - thx.  does the search do wildcarding?  can i do a "apt-cache search vmware"?  or would it be "apt-cache search *vm*"?
[02:42] <histo> eggonlea: the manpage for a certain app isn't there right?
[02:42] <Joker_-_> tp2: it is "wildcards" by default
[02:42] <tp2> joker_-_ ok thx.
[02:42] <histo> eggonlea: once again how did you install the app?
[02:42] <Joker_-_> tp2: apt-cache search vmware should work
[02:42] <WhiteDawn> Joker_-_: thanks, did not know that command etheir
[02:43] <Joker_-_> tp2: I tend to use "| grep something"
[02:43] <histo> eggonlea: its quite possible it didn't come with documentation
[02:43] <eggonlea> histo: how do you find the right package name (to be apt-get install) if you only know the function (to man)?
[02:43] <zombie-robot> how do i ssh from an iphone to ubunto to start delugr?
[02:43] <Joker_-_> tp2: as in: "apt-cache search somethingVague | grep somethingPrecise
[02:43] <eggonlea> histo: Do you mean maybe the manpage/doc for that API is not available at all?
[02:43] <histo> eggonlea: you can search the repositories
[02:43] <Guest75815> hello every body,    how can i create submenu in office
[02:44] <lotus> exit
[02:44] <histo> eggonlea: you aren't making much sense What are you trying to get working?  Are you looking for a package?  Or documentation on a package thats installed?
[02:44] <Guest75815> hello ,every body,how can i create submenu in office  menu
[02:44] <fredim> can not get up in modprobe modules    ( WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/lirc-blacklist, it will be ignored in a future release )
[02:44] <ZykoticK9> Guest75815, System / Preferences / Main menu
[02:45] <WhiteDawn> Guest75815: go to System / preference/ mainmenu
[02:45] <WhiteDawn> ZykoticK9: darn, beat me too it
[02:45] <eggonlea> histo: Sorry, I've thought I've express myself clearly. I have a function name (API like XvShmPutImage). I want to get the right manpage installed, by any way.
[02:45] <devz0r> My computer lost power while installing a package, and now I am having issues doing anything with apt-get/aptitude/synaptic/etc. regarding configuration errors. apt-get -f install doesn't fix it, dpkg --configure -a doesn't fix it.
[02:45] <ZykoticK9> WhiteDawn, but you had a "go to" so yours was better :)
[02:45] <tp2> joker_-_  i found a few pkgs i'd like more info about from the search on vmware.  is there a way to get more details than the single line description that comes back or is it best to just google the pkg name?
[02:46] <booksbuggy> devz0r, you using ubuntu or kubuntu?
[02:46] <devz0r> ubuntu
[02:46] <WhiteDawn> ZykoticK9: why thank you good sir, but we cannot forget your wonderfull advice, may it live forever
[02:46] <eggonlea> histo: any method to get the manpage filename or package name so that I could apt-get install <the right package> and then I could man <the function>.
[02:46] <booksbuggy> okay synaptics and look for the broken packages unless you are using beta system
[02:46] <Guest75815> but i want create submenu  in my  application
[02:46] <devz0r> i am using lucid beta
[02:47] <booksbuggy> eh then i think this is the wrong place to ask
[02:47] <Joker_-_> tp2: you can try apt-cache show
[02:47] <devz0r> well i think this has happened before in stable versions
[02:47] <devz0r> i don't remember how i fixed it
[02:47] <Joker_-_> apt-cache --help for all the commands, as any other unix/linux command
[02:47] <kpomeroy> ok using "sudo rm /var/cache/apt/archives/lock" didn't seem to work and neither did restarting the computer
[02:47] <booksbuggy> defz0r, normally i would just go into synaptics and just look for broken packages
[02:48] <Joker_-_> tp2: I tend to know what I'm looking for, but I think I would use google to find more info, if available.
[02:48] <histo> eggonlea: try apt-cache search someterm
[02:48] <hellyeah> hey
[02:48] <histo> eggonlea: then you can find the package you are looking for and install it.
[02:48] <hellyeah> wassup
[02:49] <WhiteDawn> tp2: there is also package search on ubuntu's website, you can google for that
[02:49] <tp2> joker_-_ 10-4. did that.. first links came up were pages at http://packages.ubuntu.com/etc...
[02:49] <eggonlea> histo: e.g. I could apt-get install manpages manpages-dev, etc. to install some basic man pages. But I don't know the "right package name" which contains the "right manpage" for an API.
[02:49] <Joker_-_> tp2: apt-cache show works well if you don'T have any GUI available
[02:49] <Joker_-_> tp2: there's also elinks, if you are the adventurous type :)
[02:50] <tp2> whitedawn - yup thats where i am now.  thanks for the virtualization tip btw.  looks like "open-vm-tools" is a pkg that will greatly enhance ubuntu guest os on a vmware esx host.
[02:50] <Guest75815> ?how to  <WhiteDawn>  <ZykoticKg
[02:50] <Guest75815> can you tell me
[02:50] <eggonlea> histo: I understand what you mean. but the problem is we lack a way to find the package name from a function name.
[02:50] <Losha> eggonlea: actually, I don't know of a good solution to your issue. You could try apt-cache search man | egrep -i manpage but if the developers forgot to include man pages in the -dev package, you might be sunk. I would google for the API in that case, and maybe look in the include files...
[02:50] <Joker_-_> Engaging shutdown procedure. Good night.
[02:50] <trism> eggonlea: you might try http://manpages.ubuntu.com/ it found that function in http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/en/man3/XvShmPutImage.3.html (although it appears to only be in the lucid package, it isn't in karmic anyway)
[02:50] <tp2> joker_-_  "elinks" for the adventurous type? i'm lol-ing.. not even sure why yet!
[02:50] <histo> eggonlea: what is a function name?
[02:51] <ZykoticK9> Guest75815, in Main Menu - highlight Office on the left side, then click the New Menu button on the right
[02:51] <eggonlea> Losha: Thanks. I google them now. And want to know if Ubuntu provide a way to do it offline (in case I haven't network).
[02:51] <histo> !apt-file | eggonlea
[02:51] <kpomeroy> I fixed my problem, oh happy day!
[02:51] <WhiteDawn> could someone send me a private message, idk if there working or not
[02:52] <eggonlea> trism: this is what I want, I think. WOuld try it now. Thanks!
[02:52] <Guest75815> but i want this setp in my program
[02:52] <devz0r> it does this, but with about 50 other packages, too : Setting up libssh-4 (0.4.0-1ubuntu1) ...
[02:52] <devz0r> dpkg (subprocess): unable to execute installed post-installation script: Exec format error
[02:52] <devz0r> dpkg: error processing libssh-4 (--configure):
[02:52] <devz0r>  subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2
[02:52] <FloodBot3> devz0r: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:52] <eggonlea> histo & ubottu: thanks!
[02:53] <tp2> whitedawn did a test msg to u.
[02:53] <WhiteDawn> tp2: yup worked fine thanks
[02:53] <DarkStar1> do I need the openVPN service running?
[02:53] <tp2> whitedawn tried a dcc chat too.. not sure if that worked for u
[02:53] <lotus> hey, I'm running nm-applet and am having connection issues with PEAP MSCHAPv2 WPA Enterprise networks.  Does anyone have ideas as to why my connection drops and has trouble re-authenticating?  One out of every five attempts to authenticate works correctly and I have to verify my password on every failed attempt.
[02:54] <listedaswanted> How do i make my copy of windows as default boot when using grub? Because linux is at the top when i get into the grub boot selection after a couple of seconds linux will boot because its at the top
[02:54] <lotus> listedaswanted: what grub version are you running?
[02:54] <listedaswanted> im not sure it came with ubuntu 9.10
[02:55] <daskreech> Hello
[02:55] <ZykoticK9> listedaswanted, fresh install of 9.10 or upgrade (it makes a difference)
[02:55] <daskreech>  can anyone help with a resolution problem?
[02:55] <listedaswanted> fresh install
[02:55] <lotus> daskreech: just ask.  You'll find out.
 fresh install
[02:55] <daskreech> I can't get the monitor to be anything bigger than 320x240
[02:55] <mgriffin> hello, question about apparmor. someone in #mysql is seeing this: http://pastebin.com/T5fX6kKH  what could cause that and is the solution to add /sys/devices/system/cpu/ r," to /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld ?
[02:55] <daskreech> I've redone the config
[02:55] <lotus> listedaswanted: My guess is you're running grub2
[02:55] <daskreech> redone the xorg.conf
[02:56] <eremite> daskreech: http://chvnx.com/post/280205781/change-screen-resolution-in-linux-ubuntu
[02:56] <daskreech>  added the modelines manually through xrandr
[02:56] <listedaswanted> lotus okay cool
[02:56] <Losha> listedaswanted: I think you want to edit the GRUB_DEFAULT line in /etc/default/grub and change its value. 0 means the first entry, adjust as appropriate. The run grub-update...
[02:56] <Losha> listedaswanted: the -> then
[02:56] <lotus> listedaswanted: I think you want to modify /etc/default/grub
[02:56] <WhiteDawn> daskreech: happend to me once aswell with my crt, fixed itself after a reboot some how. Wish i could be more help, have you tried a lsmod to see if your video card is running properly?
[02:56] <ZykoticK9> listedaswanted, i think if you edit /etc/default/grub and switch GRUB_DEFAULT=0 to GRUB_DEFAULT=1 then run update-grub it should work
[02:57] <lotus> yeah Losha beat me to it listedaswanted
[02:57] <listedaswanted> okay cool thanks guys
[02:57] <Arsin> If I install 10.04 will it need to wipe the drive?
[02:57] <Losha> lotus: that's cause you asked the questions for me!
[02:57] <tp2> joker_-_ holy cow.. just did a "apt-get install open-vm-tools"  you should see the list of output before the Y/N question!  it wants a ton of other pkgs installed then another pile "suggested" then another pile to upgrade!
[02:57] <lotus> ;)
[02:58] <daskreech> WhiteDawn: Ah good suggestion I have a nvidia
[02:58] <lotus> Arsin: a fresh install?
[02:58] <WhiteDawn> tp: maybe its trying to install a gui of some sort?
[02:58] <lotus> Arsin: you might be able to do a dist-upgrade
[02:58] <Silver_Swords> hi all. my mouse wont slow down using xset values.  i did xset m 1/100 1 and even tried 1/200 200 and it's still way too fast.
[02:59] <lotus> Arsin: also, do you have multiple partitions? A seperate partition for home (and any other folders you want to save?)
[02:59] <lotus> Anyone have any ideas why network-manager has difficulty with PEAP networks?
[02:59] <daskreech> eremite: xrandr: screen cannot be larger than 640x480
[02:59] <daskreech> eremite: That's what I keep getting
[02:59] <daskreech> Regardless of what I try
[02:59] <Arsin> lotus: My 9.10 GDM broke due to me trying to downgrade GDM to get the login screens and forgot if I needed any files there. I can't seem to be able to read my Linux partition VIA Win7 so I thought about installing 10.04
[03:00] <Izinucs> daskreech: you have to add the resolution to the sysem using xrandr then use xrandr to change to that newly created system rez.
[03:00] <Losha> Arsin: 10.04 is still in beta i.e. full of bugs. How about reinstalling 9.10 ?
[03:00] <Izinucs> !xrandr > daskreech
[03:00] <shazbotmcnasty> I have a bunch of open ports when I portscan myself
[03:00] <shazbotmcnasty> how should I fix this?
[03:01] <shazbotmcnasty> iptables?
[03:01] <WhiteDawn> Arsin: have you tried running sudo apt-get install --reinstall gdm ?
[03:01] <WhiteDawn> shazbotmcnasty: try using lokkit, has nice gui and is mostly user friendly
[03:01] <Arsin> Never tried that I guess I'll take a stab at that before doing anything
[03:01] <Izinucs> shazbotmcnasty: are you portscanning from outside your machine?
[03:02] <shazbotmcnasty> Izinucs, no
[03:02] <shazbotmcnasty> inside
[03:02] <ZykoticK9> Arsin, do you have files you want to save on your current install?  you can use a livecd.
[03:02] <lotus> Arsin: if you're just worried about losing some files, boot a live CD and back them up.  Otherwise, I suggest a simple wipe/reinstall.  There might be a way to fix it without a clean install, but a clean install gives you as nice an environment as you can get
[03:02] <shazbotmcnasty> i've only got 7 open ports when I portscan myself on the same computer
[03:02] <Izinucs> shazbotmcnasty: that's the problem.. you have to check from outside.. your machine will open whatever ports you want from inside..
[03:02] <daskreech> Izinucs: xrandr: screen cannot be larger than 640x480
[03:02] <shazbotmcnasty> mmk
[03:02] <Arsin> Optical drives are down right now so I can't use my live disks
[03:02] <daskreech> Izinucs: I got that back
[03:03] <mgriffin> hello, question about apparmor. someone in #mysql is seeing this: http://pastebin.com/T5fX6kKH  what could cause that and is the solution to add /sys/devices/system/cpu/ r," to /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld ?
[03:03] <ironm> hi ... one question .. typo3 4.3.1 (ubuntu 10.04 beta1 amd64) ... the following error .. any idea where to look ? .. TNX in advance :-)
[03:03] <duane> Hello
[03:03] <Izinucs> daskreech: even after adding the correct rez to the system via xrandr?
[03:03] <ironm> PHP Fatal error:  session_start(): Failed to initialize storage module: files (path: ) in /usr/share/typo3/typo3_src-4.3/typo3/index.php on line 122
[03:03] <lotus> shazbotmcnasty: https://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2
[03:03] <daskreech> Izinucs: Yes it's listed and all
[03:03] <Izinucs> daskreech: what card do you have
[03:03] <lotus> shazbotmcnasty: shields up is a web-based port-scanner which tests the security of your computer
[03:03] <WhiteDawn> ironm: got to channel #ubuntu+1 for 10.04 help
[03:03] <thenappy> hiii everybody
[03:03] <rabbitnightmare> OMG I am about ready to pull my hair out, ok I tried to set up raid with Ubuntu and failed, I disabled raid in the bios completely and yet the live CD keeps loading the stupid fakeraid drivers how the hell do I use simple IDE drivers to install Ubuntu
[03:03] <duane> Is this AOL ?
[03:04] <ironm> hi WhiteDawn  .. TNX
[03:04] <zombie-robot> how do i ssh from an iphone to ubunto to start delugr?
[03:04] <lotus> zombie-robot: dunno, but that just sounds cool ;)
[03:04] <thenappy> plz someone of u can explain me how install an application
[03:04] <daskreech> Izinucs: Nvidia Geforce
[03:04] <rabbitnightmare> XP loads the IDE drivers but I dont own a license of XP for this machine and really want Linux on it
[03:04] <dsnyders> Anyone know how to read vista event logs from linux?
[03:04] <daskreech> Izinucs: FX 5200
[03:05] <shazbotmcnasty> thanks lotus, also Izinucs I port scanned from outside and found 2 open
[03:05] <lotus> thenappy: aptitude // synaptic are the package managers in ubuntu.  Synaptic is graphical and more user friendly.  You open it up, find the application you want, and then install it.
[03:05] <Izinucs> daskreech: did you use the drivers supplied by ubuntu and if so which ones?
[03:05] <mgriffin> III: nm, your paste expired. since no one complained, i assume no one is interested in app armor problems right now.
[03:05] <lotus> shazbotmcnasty: strange, that didn't highlight my name?
[03:05] <Izinucs> shazbotmcnasty: np
[03:05] <duane> Anyone here play netpanzer
[03:05] <running_rabbit07> I have LXDE 9.10 on one of my systems and I made the great mistake of editing the Main Menu applet and removing the Settings menu from the main menu.
[03:05] <shazbotmcnasty> because I do it better
[03:05] <Izinucs> lotus: does this highlight?
[03:05] <shazbotmcnasty> probably because the comma
[03:05] <running_rabbit07> Is there a command I can run to get back into the main menu applet?
[03:05] <daskreech> Izinucs: nvdia-173
[03:05] <lotus> Izinucs: yeah.  But I don't want to rely on people doing it the "expected" way :D!
[03:06] <lotus> Izinucs: thanks for that, ofcourse
[03:06] <shazbotmcnasty> lotus, did that highlight?
[03:06] <shazbotmcnasty> DID IT?
[03:06] <lotus> shazbotmcnasty: yes!
[03:06] <daskreech> Izinucs: Though I see I have nvidia-96 an nvidia-185 installed
[03:06] <Izinucs> daskreech: let me check nvidia's site for which driver to use.. it might be a different one. hang on.
[03:06] <shazbotmcnasty> Sweet
[03:06] <lotus> shazbotmcnasty: try typing it in the middle of a sentence without the comma
[03:06] <daskreech> Izinucs: hold on let me remove those extra ones
[03:06] <III> mgriffin: will repaste
[03:06] <rabbitnightmare> why is Ubuntu loading a driver to something I have disabled in the BIOS can I get some help please
[03:06] <shazbotmcnasty> I like it when lotus touches me
[03:06] <lotus> shazbotmcnasty: nothing.
[03:07] <lotus> shazbotmcnasty: and I'm flattered.
[03:07] <shazbotmcnasty> I like it when lotus touches me
[03:07] <rabbitnightmare> I am going out of my mind, 6 hours now trying to get this machine up and running
[03:07] <lotus> lol
[03:07] <shazbotmcnasty> lotus, did it work the second time?
[03:07] <daskreech> rabbitnightmare: What's the problem?
[03:07] <rabbitnightmare> raid
[03:07] <rabbitnightmare> lol
[03:07] <lotus> shazbotmcnasty: nope.  Neither time.  I guess it has to be at the start of a sentence.
[03:07] <daskreech> rabbitnightmare: I'm guessing not hardware?
[03:07] <lotus> That's a shame, imho.
[03:07] <rabbitnightmare> I disabled it in the bios and yet Ubuntu still loads fakeraid off the lice cd
[03:07] <Losha> lotus: which client are you using?
[03:08] <mgriffin> rabbitnightmare: what goal does raid solve? which raid level are you using?
[03:08] <lotus> Losha: irssi
[03:08] <Izinucs> daskreech: the 173 driver is correct.. have you tried to run nvidia-xconfig?
[03:08] <shazbotmcnasty> if you're on xchat you can fix that easily by going to Settings>preferences>alerts
[03:08] <rabbitnightmare> I dont want or care for raid
[03:08] <tp2> quick question.  i have a few custom commands in my home dir for my login that makes things a little easier.  instead of a bunch of sudo again and again i do a 'sudo bash' to get root access.  when it does that it shows i am now root user but my .profile customizations are gone.. and understandable so.. where can i find where the root user .profile is stored? don't see anything like /home/root
[03:08] <mgriffin> rabbitnightmare: what is it preventing you from doing?
[03:08] <rabbitnightmare> I disabled it in the bios and yet Linux loads it installs to the single hdd and fails to boot
[03:08] <ZykoticK9> tp2, sudo -i
[03:08] <daskreech> Izinucs: do I need nvidia-common?
[03:08] <lotus> tp2: /root is the root home dir
[03:08] <III> hello all.. I was having some issues with mysql not running.. has anyone seen this? --> http://pastebin.com/UstWbRqZ
[03:08] <rabbitnightmare> installing Ubuntu to the damn hdd
[03:09] <Losha> tp2: I think you want /root instead of /home/root...
[03:09] <Izinucs> daskreech: you looking in synaptic? I think that's a meta package..
[03:09] <daskreech> k
[03:09] <daskreech> thnks
[03:09] <rabbitnightmare> XP loads it correctly so I used XP to delete all partitions thinking it would fix it but I dont own a license of XP for this machine
[03:09] <mgriffin> heh using windows cd to fix a linux problem amuses me
[03:10] <zombie-robot> i just installed ssh how do i start the server?
[03:10] <Izinucs> daskreech: nvidia-xconfig should already be installed.. try from a terminal.. also you might install nvidia-settings and try that after
[03:10] <mgriffin> i think you are doing something wrong in the installer tbh
[03:10] <shazbotmcnasty> mgriffin, that is disgusting
[03:10] <eric1982> /etc/init.d/sshd start
[03:10] <tp2> kyzotick9 - what is difference of sudo -i and sudo bash?
[03:10] <rabbitnightmare> mgriffin, it didnt work though I thought because it had raid partitions it would but obviously not
[03:10] <tp2> lotus - thanks. found a .profile in /root.  alias cmds working now
[03:10] <ZykoticK9> tp2, don't use "sudo bash"
[03:10] <mgriffin> rabbitnightmare: it does what you tell it to
[03:11] <rabbitnightmare> apparantly not
[03:11] <rabbitnightmare> I disabled raid in the BIOS yet Ubuntu still loads raid
[03:12] <lotus> tp2: good stuff
[03:12] <zombie-robot> bash: /etc/init.d/sshd: No such file or directory
[03:12] <eric1982> Zombie-robot open a terminal and type sudo /etc/init.d/sshd start
[03:12] <Losha> rabbitnightmare: I don't know much about raid, but like you, I expected when the partitions were erased that this would remove all trace of raid from the disk. All I can suggest is you start googling until you understand how it works...
[03:12] <daskreech> Izinucs: xconfig runs with noerrors or output
[03:12] <eric1982> Zombie-robot open a terminal and type sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start
[03:12] <daskreech> Izinucs: Restart X?
[03:12] <lotus> Anyone have experience with network manager or connecting to PEAP/MSCHAPv2 networks at their college or such?
[03:12] <Izinucs> daskreech: is this a newly installed system?
[03:12] <Losha> zombie-robot: /etc/init.d/ssh <--- no trailing d
[03:12] <daskreech> Izinucs: No had it about 2 years
[03:12] <daskreech> Jsut started this morning with no display info
[03:13] <rabbitnightmare> losha way ahead of you and on an Ubuntu forum it told me to disable raid, use XP to boot and delete the partition and then install Ubuntu and yet still loads RAID
[03:13] <daskreech> No clue what made it do that
[03:13] <Losha> lotus: no, but network manager is notoriously buggy. People report better results with wicd...
[03:13] <Izinucs> daskreech: you could try an X restart.. sudo service gdm restart... but probably won't do anything..
[03:14] <Izinucs> daskreech: 9.10?
[03:14] <lotus> Losha: alright.  I'll give it a shot thanks :)
[03:14] <daskreech> I've been getting xrandr: Configure crtc 0 failed and  xrandr: screen cannot be larger than 640x480 no matter what I do
[03:14] <daskreech> Izinucs: Yes Koala
[03:14] <rabbitnightmare> its funny I have it on a pata bus and it is still loading it as a sata device
[03:14] <Losha> rabbitnightmare: can you bring up the live cd?
[03:14] <Izinucs> daskreech: did you install nvidia-settings?
[03:14] <rabbitnightmare> I hate this computer
[03:14] <daskreech> rabbitnightmare: How do you mean it's loading it like sata device?
[03:14] <rabbitnightmare> losha obviously as I would not be here
[03:15] <daskreech> Izinucs: Yes I tried that and got xrandr: Configure crtc 0 failed
[03:15] <Losha> rabbitnightmare: please pastebin the output from 'sudo fdisk -l'
[03:15] <rabbitnightmare> daskreech, it is loading it as a serial ata raid device and I have it plugged into a pata port
[03:15] <daskreech> Izinucs: If i generate a xorg.conf and then point Xorg -config to it it ignores the modelines inside it
[03:16] <daskreech> rabbitnightmare: all deices are Serialized in the kernel I don't understand what you mean
[03:16] <daskreech> devices
[03:16] <Izinucs> daskreech: have you check to see if there is a xorg.conf file?  It's not normally there on 9.10 but one may have been created.. if so you could try renaming it to xorg.conf.backup and restart X .. it's in /etc/X11/
[03:16] <daskreech> Izinucs: yep with all the modelines etc in there
[03:16] <Izinucs> daskreech: rename it and restart x
[03:16] <daskreech> Izinucs: Oh wait you are saying remove it?
[03:17] <Izinucs> daskreech: by renaming it that effectively removes it.
[03:17] <daskreech> Izinucs: yeah got you
[03:17] <main> !grub4dos
[03:18] <shazbotmcnasty> i purposefully opened a port
[03:18] <shazbotmcnasty> but
[03:18] <shazbotmcnasty> mhmmmm
[03:18] <shazbotmcnasty> I don't know how to word that. lol
[03:18] <shazbotmcnasty> is there a way to have it open, but SEEM stealth?
[03:18] <shazbotmcnasty> lol
[03:19] <zombie-robot> how do i edit my ssh settings
[03:19] <jaycount> zombie-robot, what settings are you trying to change?
[03:20] <Chad> What would be the best way to stream audio and video from my server ?
[03:21] <zombie-robot> when i try to connect to the server its says: ssh:connect to host xx.x.xxx.xx port 22: No route to host (65)
[03:21] <daskreech> Izinucs: Nope
[03:21] <[TechGuy]> Good evening. Running 9.10 under VirtualBox with an AC97 virtual audio card. Sound prefs still only show hardware as internal stereo audio. Am I missing a brain cell or two for enabling full 5.1 surround?
[03:21] <Bageshwar> !apt-proxy
[03:21] <Izinucs> zombie-robot: try ssh <name>@<ip address>
[03:21] <Chad> What would be the best way to stream audio and video from my server ?
[03:21] <Bageshwar> I want to use some 700 mb of deb files that i have on a couple of cds ( for ubuntu),  can i paste them inside the main directory as they are present in a repo ?
[03:22] <greezmunkey> ssh -l ?
[03:22] <Bageshwar> inside /var/cache/apt-proxy ? for the appropriate distro ?
[03:22] <daskreech> Izinucs: Wait Hooray!! it's 800x600 now :)
[03:22] <Crash1hd> Ugg My iTunes on my windows box doesnt want to save on my ubuntu box i set the umask to 002 so that both the user and group have rw access yet iTunes keeps changing the Library.itl file to rwxr--r-- I manually set it to rwxrwxr-x and it works until I close itunes and then it sets it back to rwxr--r-- any thoughts?
[03:22] <tp2> whitedawn / joker_-_  THANKS! the apt-get install open-vm-tools is complete now.  system seems a ton more responsive.  web pages with mysql data work faster.  php/horde webmail run way quicker.  even my ssh login taking 10 seconds now barely takes one second to spit out those system stats.  thanks a ton fellas!
[03:22] <ZykoticK9> [TechGuy], i highly doubt the VBox AC97 is going to support 5.1 but you might ask in the #vbox channel for confirmation
[03:22] <ChogyDan> Bageshwar: you may want aptoncd
[03:23] <Izinucs> daskreech: ah ha.. now type xrandr in a terminal and see what rez's are available.
[03:23] <Bageshwar> ChogyDan: will it export the required files, to apt-proxy ? i thought it made installer cds out of my apt cache
[03:23] <daskreech> Izinucs: 800x600
[03:23] <[TechGuy]> ZykoticK9: k. Honestly wasn't sure whether it was a kernel driver thing or what. Normally hardware, even virtual hardware, is hardware. :D
[03:23] <lotus> anyone know how to get a .deb file from the repositories?
[03:23] <Izinucs> daskreech: ok.. now use the commands for xrandr to add the rez you want.
[03:23] <daskreech> xrandr: screen cannot be larger than 800x600 (desired size 1024x768)
[03:23] <Chad> What would be the best way to stream audio and video from my server? any suggestion is a good suggestion.
[03:23] <shazbotmcnasty> Bageshwar, I don't quite understand the question. So you're trying to move the debs to /home/user ?
[03:23] <daskreech> Ahead of you
[03:23] <lotus> I want to download the .deb and put it on a usb stick
[03:23] <Bageshwar> lotus: use apt-get
[03:23] <Izinucs> daskreech: by the way.. what rez are you trying to get?
[03:24] <ChogyDan> Bageshwar: Im not sure
[03:24] <ChogyDan> lotus: just browse straight to the repo
[03:24] <daskreech> Izinucs: 1280x1024
[03:24] <ZykoticK9> [TechGuy], i could be wrong...
[03:24] <Bageshwar> ChogyDan: i checked aptoncd, i think it doesnt solve the purpose
[03:24] <Izinucs> daskreech: what command are you using?
[03:24] <lotus> ChogyDan: when I do, it says it's not what I'm after and that I should go somewhere else...
[03:24] <daskreech> xrandr --addmode et al
[03:24] <ChogyDan> lotus: link?
[03:24] <lotus> ChogyDan: http://apt.wicd.net is the repo I'm after
[03:24] <Bageshwar> !offline | lotus
[03:25] <Bageshwar> anybody user apt-proxy ?
[03:25] <[TechGuy]> For a moment I thought you were referring to Lotus Notes with that nick / bot command
[03:25] <Chad> What would be the best way to stream audio and video from my server? any suggestion is a good suggestion.
[03:25] <Izinucs> daskreech: there's a concept that X needs to be at or larger than the resolution you're looking for.. this might be a google solution instead of the ubuntu docs on resolution.. I'll look
[03:26] <Bageshwar> !vlc | Chad
[03:26] <mgriffin> anyone familiar with apparmor?
[03:26] <Bageshwar> Chad: VLC is quite popular
[03:26] <daskreech> I've been a googling but please jump in the corral and help lasso this bugger
[03:26] <Chad> over WAN
[03:26] <Bageshwar> !pbuilder
[03:27] <Bageshwar> Chad: it will work.. on wan too
[03:27] <Chad> alrighty
[03:27] <Bageshwar> Chad: its a complete solution
[03:27] <Chad> ill look into it then thanks
[03:27] <Izinucs> daskreech: you only have one monitor .. right?
[03:27] <ChogyDan> Bageshwar: you can just use file copy commands, but what you are trying to do sounds complicated.  Did you say multiple distros?
[03:27] <daskreech> Izinucs: Yep
[03:27] <Bageshwar> Chad: do check into transcoding and a slight tweaking be4 u start ! :)
[03:28] <daskreech> I have about the simplest setup I can imagine and it somehow broke over nothing
[03:28] <Bageshwar> ChogyDan: no, not multiple distros, acutally i have set-up apt-proxy, but i use a serious slow connection, i could save on the 700bmb which i have on the cd
[03:28] <Izinucs> daskreech: vga or dvi?
[03:28] <Bageshwar> ChogyDan: which i have on the installer
[03:29] <daskreech> Izinucs: VGA
[03:29] <craig_> dvi
[03:29] <ChogyDan> Bageshwar: the alternate cd?
[03:29] <daskreech> The monitor comes up as a default in xrandr not VGA-0
[03:29] <hellyeah> hey is there someone who has a problem booting windows 7 after installing ubuntu
[03:29] <Izinucs> daskreech: try this with the right rez inputed if this isn't right.. also change the 75 to 60.  xrandr --output VGA --mode 1024×768 --rate 75
[03:30] <Bageshwar> ChogyDan: no, the installer cd
[03:30] <fbc_> How do I enable sound with this type of installation? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LowMemorySystems
[03:30] <ChogyDan> Bageshwar: live cd? or the alternate cd?
[03:30] <daskreech> xrandr: Configure crtc 0 failed
[03:31] <Bageshwar> ChogyDan: its alternate i guess, the one which is available by defualt ( ubuntu server )
[03:31] <daskreech> Izinucs: I have no clue :-(
[03:31] <zombie-robot> ssh <name>@<ip address> isnt doing anything
[03:31] <Izinucs> daskreech: is this a flat panel or older crt?
[03:31] <daskreech> Izinucs: CRT
[03:31] <Izinucs> ah.. hang on
[03:32] <daskreech> zombie-robot: ip-adress is wrong ?
[03:32] <Dracari> in 10.4 is the Texas Instrumenst Card reader bug fixed?
[03:32] <dsnyders> Hi all!  Is anyone running OneNote in wine?
[03:32] <daskreech> Dracari: #ubuntu+1
[03:32] <ChogyDan> Bageshwar: I think you should be able to use a straight copy command, something like: cp cd_location/folder/*/*.deb /var/cache/apt/archives
[03:33] <Bageshwar> ChogyDan: hmm i ll try.. was just worried about the Package.gz that it has... anyways.. i ll try n let ppl know .. thanks !
[03:33] <lotus> for any interested party, apt-get -d install <package> is what I was after.  It retireves the package but not installs it
[03:33] <zombie-robot> no
[03:34] <natediddy> anyone know how to delete only one partition from my computer but keep the rest?
[03:35] <dsnyders> natediddy, use fdisk
[03:35] <daskreech> natediddy: don't use fdisk
[03:35] <Losha> natediddy: which partition, and why. And don't you want to use the space it frees up?
[03:35] <blakkheim> natediddy: use fdisk
[03:35] <daskreech> natediddy: Don't use fdik
[03:35] <Izinucs> daskreech: well.... if you want to go there.. you can always install the nvidia drivers from their site.. the 173's.. during that process it will dynamically create the correct xorg.conf file *if* your monitor reports the settings correctly.. if not then once it's created you can go in and edit it for the right rez.. xorg.conf overrides xrandr when it exists correctly.
[03:35] <daskreech> natediddy: Use gparted
[03:35] <dsnyders> daskreech, why not fdisk?
[03:35] <natediddy> well im trying to triple boot win7, unr, and Mint8
[03:35] <zombie-robot> doh port forwarding in router?
[03:35] <natediddy> i dont think its gonna work
[03:35] <daskreech> dsnyders: It's a destructive write
[03:35] <zombie-robot> 22
[03:36] <Dracari> seems they're afk/buys over there i do have multicopies of *ubuntu of various version, (7.04, 8.04 9.10) i know atleast befor i learne dof 10.4. that only way to get the Texas Instruments PCI1620 Card reader was a small work around in Fiest Fawn.
[03:36] <daskreech> Izinucs: Not today it doesnt
[03:36] <Izinucs> daskreech: you'll have to disable the current driver and uninstall the preinstalled ubuntu nvidia bits to make it work.
[03:36] <eric1982> Any one else use Hydrogen on Ubuntu 10.4 and notice sound sound quality issues. (Crackly) music and video audio seems fine
[03:36] <daskreech> Izinucs: I did that already
[03:36] <dsnyders> daskreech, Kinda necessary if you want to get rid of the partition/
[03:36] <Dracari> Is it possibl eto intergrate it into Fawn?
[03:36] <Flannel> eric1982: #ubuntu+1 for Lucid support, thanks
[03:36] <Losha> natediddy: there's no reason it shouldn't work, unless dsnyders and daskreech never stop squabbling...
[03:36] <natediddy> its said Resizing Partition for about 20 minutes now and still 0%
[03:36] <Izinucs> daskreech: you did? is that the driver you're using now?
[03:36] <daskreech> dsnyders: I mean that it will destroy all partition table info
[03:37] <daskreech> Izinucs: No not now
[03:37] <Losha> natediddy: oh, er, you started without us...
[03:37] <natediddy> lol
[03:37] <daskreech> I just removed all the drivers and installed the nvidia-173 from the repos
[03:37] <natediddy> its okay
[03:37] <Losha> natediddy: how big is the partition you're resizing?
[03:38] <sqwertle> !pastge
[03:38] <Izinucs> daskreech: ok.. you're having conflicts.. disable the ubuntu driver.. uninstall the ubuntu nvidia bits and reinstall the driver direct from nvidia.. the different driver sets don't coexist well.. I've always had that issue.
[03:38] <rdvonz> My external hard drive switches it's path from /media/disk to /media/d88bc993-9850-4959-8701-c639b916f851/ everytime I reload my system. How do I stop this?
[03:38] <sqwertle> !paste
[03:38] <natediddy> kinda big...and im on a netbook :o i think this was a bad idea :(
[03:38] <blakkheim> rdvonz: mount /dev/sd(whatever) /media/disk
[03:38] <V3N0M> okay i have a problem, i resently installed backtrack 4, after i installed ubuntu, but now my GRUB won;t boot from ubuntu, when i click on the ubuntu 9.10, it says file not found,and i did not overwrite my ubuntu 9.10
[03:38] <Izinucs> daskreech: or go through the uninstall process for the nvidia supplied driver and try the ubuntu drivers.
[03:38] <V3N0M> any segustions to fix my grub?
[03:38] <sqwertle> I seem to be having trouble with UbuntuLooks not letting me open some programs: http://paste.ubuntu.com/400931/
[03:39] <Losha> natediddy: it will take a while. Probably worse to interrupt it than to let it run to completion. Sit on your hands...
[03:39] <Dracari> i guess it's a No.
[03:39] <rdvonz> blakkheim: anyway to automate this?
[03:39] <natediddy> i really really like this Mint8 so i wanna delete the nebook remix
[03:39] <natediddy> Losha: i got ya
[03:40] <V3N0M> hello
[03:40] <natediddy> hello
[03:40] <Izinucs> !grub2 > V3N0M
[03:40]  * Dracari Sighs " i did NOT wanan haveto half arse Slipstream drivers into an Winblows XP Iso, then Make that ready for bart PE.. all just to use a SD Reader @_@"
[03:40] <V3N0M> does any one here understand GRUB?
[03:40] <blakkheim> V3N0M: read the PM
[03:41] <Losha> Dracari: 3rd party hardware is the bane of all linuxes...
[03:41] <moosekaka> i am confused by why there is TWO .bashrc filese...one in my home folder, another one in the /etc/bash.bashrc file
[03:41] <moosekaka> and which one should i change
[03:41] <moosekaka> i got tab completion by changing the /etc/bash.bashrc
[03:41] <Izinucs> moosekaka: the one in your ~ is specific to you and your login.. the other is system wide
[03:41] <WhiteDawn> moosekaka: change the one in home folder, the etc is if there isnt anything in home
[03:41] <tp2> exit
[03:42] <greezmunkey> What could be some reasons why ssh logins take a few seconds (4-5) before a password prompt is thrown?
[03:42] <tp2> lol..long day.. ignore me.
[03:42] <blakkheim> greezmunkey: use ssh -v
[03:42] <billy> can people help me on my game and sign up on this link http://www.themobsterslife.com/signup.php?step=3&refer=5345
[03:42] <greezmunkey> blakkheim: I'll man page that, thanks.
[03:43] <moosekaka> ok thanks..
[03:43] <Losha> moosekaka: the one in /etc/bash.bashrc is an example for making changes that all users will see. The ~/.bashrc is individual per-user...
[03:44] <Izinucs> billy: wrong channel for that question
[03:44] <Losha> greezmunkey: there's quite a lot of processing and negotiation goes on in ssh before you get to a password prompt. You should be able to see it happen by adding -v
[03:44] <greezmunkey> blakkheim: verbose! I'm using putty, but I can add that, thanks!
[03:44] <billy> what channel should i use?
[03:44] <greezmunkey> Losha, ...you trainin' me???
[03:44] <greezmunkey> heh
[03:44] <Izinucs> billy: #linux #ubuntu-offtopic anywhere but here.
[03:44] <Losha> greezmunkey: what else is a grease monkey for?
[03:45] <Flannel> billy: Most channels dont take kindly to spam in general, so "nowhere" might be more appropriate
[03:45] <greezmunkey> :]
[03:45] <Losha> greezmunkey: actually, I'm just slow...:-)
[03:45] <billy> its not span i get stuff on my game if i reffer people
[03:45] <Izinucs> daskreech: you still around?
[03:46] <daskreech> Izinucs: Yeah I was bout to reboot
[03:46] <Losha> billy: it's not wanted here. That makes it spam...
[03:46] <Izinucs> daskreech: keep me posted
[03:46] <billy> losha: what is it these days everyones gotta stick there 2 cents in
[03:47] <underdev> "you know what really grinds my gears..."
[03:47] <Losha> billy: yeah, everyone's a critic these days...
[03:48] <billy> you gotta love em lol how do you make the writing go red like that>

[03:50] <Losha> billy: just put someone's nick with a colon before the rest of your text. That person will see highlighted text...
[03:50] <Izinucs> V3N0M: nope.. you need to use the pastebin for pasting text
[03:50] <V3N0M> okay sorry
[03:50] <Izinucs> V3N0M: the bot cut you off.
[03:50] <V3N0M> but any one see what i wrote?
[03:50] <Izinucs> V3N0M: the bot cut you off.
[03:50] <dsnyders> V3N0M, Yes, we're seeing you.
[03:50] <V3N0M> bummer lol
[03:50] <Crash1hd> So no one knows why a folder that is set to 777 and i get the error you dont have enough access priviledges in iTunes?
[03:51] <Izinucs> V3N0M: looks like you have the legacy grub.. I'll send another PM link for you
[03:51] <billy> Losha: hhgdj
[03:51] <greezmunkey> Losha: blakkheim: Yup...processing encryption, seems like it should run faster, but at least it works.
[03:51] <oberdada> hello. i have one of those external USB SD card readers on my desktop (Ubuntu 8.10 btw).  How can i get the SD cards to mount without the write-protection mode?
[03:51] <Izinucs> !grub > V3N0M
[03:51] <billy> did that work?
[03:51] <Losha> billy: yes, it worked. That bit before the colon can be called a 'prefix'...
[03:51] <billy> right i get it lol cheers
[03:52] <greezmunkey> and the bit(s) after...what do you call that?
[03:52] <Losha> greezmunkey: encryption is very compute intensive & expensive...
[03:52] <Losha> greezmunkey: blabber, mostly...
[03:52] <V3N0M> izinucs: i installed grub 2 and now it says something about confingering grub, if u want to have grub2 to be loaded.......the following command, but there is no command there
[03:52] <oberdada> i tried moving switching the notch on the card, trying to change mode as superuser, gparting it, none have worked

[03:53] <V3N0M> but u posted something about it tho
[03:53] <Jeff91> My 10.04 system cannot see/print a test page to the printer attached to my 9.10 system. I selected the make and model but when I tell it to run off the test page tells me it can't find the printer. Any suggestions?
[03:53] <Losha> V3N0M: do it properly, copy the text into http://paste.ubuntu.com so we can see it...
[03:54] <greezmunkey> Losha: It's worth it to be able to execute locally - from a remote location.
[03:54] <daskreech> Jeff91: #ubuntu+1
[03:54] <Izinucs> daskreech: hummmm.. did you uninstall the ubuntu stuff and reinstall the nvidia driver? or the other way around?
[03:54] <V3N0M> losha: k gimma a second
[03:54] <daskreech> other way around
[03:54] <blackrock> Is Pitivi gnome native ?
[03:54] <Jeff91> daskreech ?
[03:54] <Losha> zombie-robot: having ssh problems?
[03:55] <ZykoticK9> blackrock, think so - it's included in Lucid by default
[03:55] <Jeff91> nvm thanks daskreech
[03:55] <greezmunkey> zombie-robot: did you try the "-l" option as I put up earlier?
[03:55] <V3N0M> losha: do i paste the url?
[03:55] <Losha> blackrock: it mentions gnome in the web page, so I think so..
[03:55] <zombie-robot> im trying to connect to ubuntu from an iphone
[03:56] <zombie-robot> via ssh
[03:56] <Losha> V3N0M: yep, just paste the url it gave you after you hit Submit...
[03:56] <zombie-robot> but i get error 65
[03:56] <V3N0M> alrighty :)
[03:56] <greezmunkey> zombie-robot: then you need ##AppleCore
[03:56] <V3N0M> http://paste.ubuntu.com/400935/
[03:56] <Izinucs> daskreech: personally I would have done it the first way.. but no matter.. I'm stuck.. you didn't happen to have used .. ah hum.. automatix .. did you?
[03:56] <V3N0M> XD
[03:56] <blackrock> I liked the fretonfire and other games in lucid :)
[03:56] <Losha> zombie-robot: I can't help with the iphone, but I can maybe help with the ubuntu end...
[03:57] <Losha> V3N0M: what happens when you highlight and then hit ok?
[03:57] <zombie-robot> im using touch term pro to try to connect to ubuntu
[03:57] <Losha> zombie-robot: never heard of it...
[03:58] <daskreech> Izinucs: Should i try from nvidia's site?
[03:58] <daskreech> !nvidia
[03:58] <V3N0M> losha: nothing i tried clicking, and scrolling see if there is more, i tried this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2,
[03:59] <V3N0M> losha: i tried the upgrade legacy, but it said i needed grub-pc, tried downloading that it did not work
[03:59] <Izinucs> daskreech: be worth a shot.. I typically use the nvidia drivers just 'cause they are more stable and faster for my system.  however with every kernel upgrade you have to reinstall them.. I believe you also need build-essential so they compile
[03:59] <daskreech> I should have tha
[04:00] <daskreech> Izinucs: Actually let me see what happens when I jump to the nv driver
[04:01] <Losha> V3N0M: what os did you start from, what os are you installing, and on what hardware...
[04:01] <Arsin> Karmic told me that sudo apt-get reinstall is not a command, is that normal?
[04:01] <randompie> How to prevent update manager from trying to update certain packages?

[04:01] <slackster> Hi, are all these "evolution-data-" processes legitimate? I'm not even using evolution. http://pastebin.com/quR46Gt5
[04:02] <Losha> randompie: see pinning above...
[04:02] <V3N0M> losha: i started with ubuntu 9.10 karmic, then i installed on another partition, backtrack 4 final release
[04:02] <rww> slackster: evolution-data-server is used by things other than evolution (it's a core GNOME thing). That is rather a lot of them, though.
[04:03] <nin-ja> I'm getting an error from pidgeon, it keeps logging me out once in a while.
[04:03] <Losha> V3N0M: oops. sorry, dunno anything about backtrack. Doesn't it have its own support channel?
[04:03] <nin-ja> The error says "Connection error from Notification server:
[04:03] <nin-ja> Reading error"
[04:03] <greezmunkey> zombie-robot: TTP looks like it's useful, how far do you get?
[04:03] <slackster> rww: I always see that. might it have something to do with uptime?
[04:03] <slackster>  23:03:36 up 27 days,  2:58,  2 users,  load average: 0.64, 0.87, 0.79
[04:03] <slackster> not being killed or something?
[04:03] <Ten-Eight> uptime
[04:03] <randompie> Losha: how do you pin packages? Synaptic has a Package -> Lock Version option. Even when package is locked it tries to update it.
[04:04] <V3N0M> losha: well its prety well like linux, no i am not to sure, i fugured ubuntu would help, considering u can download apts from there servers on backtrack 4
[04:04] <rww> slackster: heh. Yeah, that might be it. I wouldn't know, I've never left a desktop on that long :\
[04:04] <slackster> rww: ok, I guess I'll have to live with them for now. :)

[04:04] <toastedmilk> I'm having trouble getting a Logitech QuickCam Express Plus working with camorama.  Any ideas?
[04:05] <Losha> V3N0M: at a guess, I would say deinstall grub1 and install grub2. If anything goes wrong, you may end up with an unbootable system though...
[04:05] <nin-ja> here's another error i occasionally get from pidgeon...
[04:05] <nin-ja> Lost connection with server: Connection reset by peer

[04:05] <V3N0M> losha: any ideas how to do that?

[04:07] <ZykoticK9> with Xchat is there some way to disable the "X is now know as Y" messages?
[04:07] <Losha> V3N0M: well, the usual way i.e.apt-get remove grub and then apt-get install grub2...
[04:08] <nunya> Zykotick9: ask in #xchat
[04:09] <Losha> ZykoticK9: when you find out, please come back and tell me...
[04:09] <nunya> lol
[04:10] <a514> lxde works on 9.10
[04:10] <greezmunkey> ZykoticK9: you could try "/ignore #{channel} ALL -PUBLIC -ACTIONS" (sans quotes)
[04:10] <ZykoticK9> Losha, Settings -> Advanced -> Text Events, select "Change Nick", delete the text from the edit area (in the middle) and HIT ENTER! then hit OK

[04:14] <lotus> Losha: Wicd is amazing when installed from the repository.  I tried installing it from source in crunchbang (got the idea from needing to on gNewSense) and it sucked.  Installing it from the repo once I was connected again and it's much much nicer.  The real test will be tomorrow at college :D
[04:14] <ZykoticK9> Losha, you have LifeIsPain from #xchat and nunya for the suggestion to thank really :)
[04:15] <Losha> lotus: glad there's some progress...
[04:15]  * nunya pats on back
[04:15] <nunya> :)
[04:15] <Bonster> how u rename special characters like ] [ to either space or just delete it?  Bash command
[04:16] <blakkheim> Bonster: escape it with \ or use quotes
[04:16] <nunya> sed
[04:16] <Losha> ZykoticK9: I'd thank them, but at some point, it becomes overly solicitous....
[04:16] <Bonster> cant u give me example?
[04:16] <ZykoticK9> Losha, i was just kindin' anyways :)
[04:16] <AbortD> is it possible to switch empathy with pidgin in gnome and have it accesible under the envelope icon by the date bar
[04:16] <blakkheim> Bonster: cp file\ name filename
[04:16] <toastedmilk> I'm having trouble getting a Logitech QuickCam Express Plus working with camorama.  Any ideas?
[04:16] <alloosh> hi, I am using ubuntu to host one application for one of my clients, now they need to put some static pages there, they are doing this with front page, do I need to install anything on the server?
[04:16] <angel_> test
[04:17] <angel_> test
[04:17] <AbortD> angel it works
[04:17] <angel_> so was up guys
[04:17] <Losha> ZykoticK9: I became much happier here on IRC when I decided I wasn't doing it for the glory....:-)
[04:17] <nunya> I'm wondering if he meant me...
[04:17] <nunya> ?
[04:17] <AbortD> i wish i could figure this out meh
[04:17] <ZykoticK9> Losha, is there any glory on irc??? lol
[04:18] <Losha> ZykoticK9: glory, fabulous riches, whiny users, we have it all...
[04:18]  * nunya looks for riches
[04:18] <lotus> AbortD: it's possible
[04:18] <AbortD> lotus how is it possible
[04:19] <daskreech> http://paste.ubuntu.com/400942/ does that mean anything Izinucs ?
[04:19] <lotus> AbortD: IU've got it set up like that.  I'll tell you but I need to look it up as I do so.
[04:19] <AbortD> lotus cool i have been trying to figure it out
[04:21] <Izinucs> daskreech: yea.. some.. horizontal sync is wrong.. still have the manual for the monitor to give you the specs? or will google discover them for you? .. looks like you have some xorg.conf editing to do.. you might look in the old xorg to see what's there and what you might be able to use.
[04:21] <SwimmingRaat> Ubuntu died. a

[04:22] <hellyeah> hey
[04:22] <Izinucs> daskreech: what's the make and model of the monitor?
[04:22] <hellyeah> is there anyone who has a problem on booting windows 7 after installing ubuntu
[04:22] <Izinucs> hellyeah: who goes back? :)
[04:22] <SwimmingRaat> Ubuntu died. again. Firefox at the Jon Stewart site. Went into a dound loop repeating the same sound and froze. (Had past trouble and took CD out as advised and no problems for a week since.)
[04:23] <nunya> oh no... he said windows in here
[04:23] <SwimmingRaat> Ubuntu died. again. Firefox at the Jon Stewart site. Went into a dound loop repeating the same sound and froze. (Had past trouble and took CD out as advised and no problems for a week since.) Ubuntu 9.10 on AMD 32bit, only ubuntu no windows at all.
[04:23] <eremite> SwimmingRaat: I used to have that problem back in teh Windows ME days.  Turned out to be a bad video card.
[04:23] <daskreech> Izinucs: Ahmm not sure Generic and Generic ?
[04:23] <Izinucs> daskreech: no brand name on the back near the power cord?
[04:24] <greezmunkey> nunya: it happens...
[04:24] <SwimmingRaat> But now there's no problem normally eremite except that chrome goes on audio strike from time to time.
[04:24] <nunya> Bonster: use mv instead of cp
[04:24] <lotus> AbortD: okay
[04:24] <lotus> AbortD: you there?
[04:24] <daskreech> Izinucs: Ah Hmm let me see
[04:24] <Losha> Bonster: the 'rename' command?

[04:24] <oberdada> hello. i have one of those external USB SD card readers on my desktop (Ubuntu 8.10 btw). How can i get the SD cards to mount without the write-protection mode?
[04:25] <AbortD> lotus yes
[04:25] <lotus> AbortD: in /usr/share/indicators/messages/applications there are several files.  One file for each item in the indicator applet.
[04:25] <lotus> AbortD: i have thunderbird and pidgin.
[04:25] <lotus> AbortD: pidgin is a file which contains the line /usr/share/applications/pidgin.desktop
[04:25] <SwimmingRaat> oberdada, I never had that problem.
[04:25] <Bonster> Losha, yea rename doesnt seem to like brackets
[04:25] <ryanrhee90> hi all. is there a way to create a L2TP/IPsec over a TUN/TAP interface rather than a PPP interface on linux? i'm on ubuntu 8.04 LTS and strongswan.
[04:25] <lotus> AbortD: that desktop file should exist already.  If you don't ahve it, tell me and I'll pastebin its contents.
[04:26] <AbortD> k sec i need to install the apps first
[04:26] <lotus> AbortD: And there's another trick to this that I don't remember.  Something about the pidgin file getting removed from this folder every time you reboot or somesuch.  There's like a list of blacklisted indicators somewhere...
[04:26] <blythe> Anyone who can provide help modifying icons not included in an icon theme, some help would be much appreciated.
[04:26]  * SwimmingRat will return and look into the magic xchat mirror for answers.
[04:26] <jmanu19> sc
[04:27] <AbortD> hm if its gonna keep getting deleted im gonna have to wait
[04:27] <Losha> Bonster: you have to 'escape' them with backslashes, something like: rename 's/\]//' * followed by rename 's/\[//' *
[04:27] <lotus> AbortD: found it
[04:27] <lotus> AbortD: in /home/user/.config/indicators/messages/applications-blacklist there's an entry for libpurple I think
[04:28] <Losha> SwimmingRat: we need an xchat magic 8 ball...
[04:28] <daskreech> Izinucs: Dell
[04:28] <lotus> AbortD: not sure if it's pidgin or libpurple (I deleted mine)
[04:28] <daskreech> Izinucs: 828Fi
[04:28] <AbortD> are you supposed to delete it?
[04:28] <AbortD> to get it to work?
[04:29] <lotus> AbortD: but removing it from the applications-blacklist and putting the entry in the /usr/share/indicators/messages/applications/ folder as I mentioned earlier works.
[04:29] <lotus> AbortD: you don't have to delete it.  You can just move it out of that folder into another folder "un-blacklisted" or somesuch
[04:29] <Izinucs> daskreech: 30-70 is the horizontal range..  http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/monitors/22793/specs.htm
[04:30]  * lotus is so glad it's not 4:30am GMT already...
[04:30] <oberdada> SwimmingRaat: there are a lot of forums on it (none have helped thus far)
[04:30] <daskreech> Izinucs: Ok what's that mean for my xrandr commands?
[04:31] <AbortD> k i see pidgin lotus what now
[04:31] <lotus> AbortD: where do you see pidgin?
[04:31] <AbortD> in that folder u told me about
[04:31] <AbortD> to i remove the empathy one?
[04:31] <lotus> AbortD: I told you about a couple of folders
[04:31] <Izinucs> daskreech: not with xrandr.. there's an xorg.conf now.. or should be... that's where you need to make a change
[04:31] <AbortD> ph yeah
[04:31] <AbortD> /usr/share/indicators/messages/applications
[04:31] <AbortD> that folder
[04:32] <lotus> AbortD: okay you see pidgin in that folder?  type "less pidgin" and make sure it says something like /usr/share/applications/pidgin.desktop
[04:32] <nin-ja> this is really strange... i'm having errors with every chat program available
[04:32] <nin-ja> curses, linux can be such a hassal
[04:32] <Losha> nin-ja: what *kind* of errors?
[04:32] <AbortD> im in the folder physically
[04:33] <lotus> AbortD: also, make sure the pidgin.desktop file exists and looks like http://pastebin.com/4FHra0H3
[04:33] <nin-ja> Losha: Basically, when i'm on any chat client, it logs me in and out of my account.
[04:33] <Izinucs> daskreech: check the vertical too.. it's really wide
[04:33] <deep> hi
[04:34] <nin-ja> Losha: With empathy it just complains and says there's a network error
[04:34] <lotus> AbortD: /usr/share/indicators/messages/applications/pidgin I don't think should be a folder.  It's not on my computer, it's just a file here.  And in the file there's only one like that reads: /usr/share/applications/pidgin.desktop
[04:34] <happyface> how do I dl a whole subversion revision locally?
[04:34] <AbortD> same lotus
[04:34] <lotus> s/only one like/only one line
[04:34] <nin-ja> Losha: with pidgin it gives me a whole host of errors...
[04:34] <AbortD> yup
[04:35] <lotus> AbortD: okay.  So then http://pastebin.com/4FHra0H3 should be the contents of your /usr/share/applications/pidgin.desktop file aswell
[04:35] <AbortD> so i have to add that file?
[04:35] <AbortD> k let me check that
[04:35] <Losha> nin-ja: I'm not sure what that means. I've never used empathy or pidgin. I use xchat, or sometimes, chatzilla...
[04:35] <lotus> AbortD: be specific.  What file?
[04:35] <AbortD> sec
[04:35] <nunya> nin-ja, you on wifi?
[04:36] <nin-ja> Losha: Yes
[04:36] <lotus> nin-ja: I'd check to make sure you're not connecting through a proxy.  Especially Tor.
[04:36] <Losha> nin-ja: yes, you're on wifi? I agree with lotus and nunya. Sounds like a network connectivity problem...
[04:36] <nin-ja> nunya: yes... but the problem is restricted to chat programs like pidgin and empathy
[04:37] <AbortD> thats what pidgin.desktop looks like
[04:37] <AbortD> do i need to uninstall empathy now and it will take its place?
[04:37] <lotus> AbortD: okay.  Just remove the pidgin (or libpurple) entry from /home/user/config/indicators/messages/applications-blacklist and you should be good.  You'll have to restart the indicator applet ofcourse
[04:37] <nunya> nin-ja, you could test if it's a wifi problem.
[04:38] <nin-ja> nunya: why would it be restricted to only chat programs if its a wifi issue?
[04:38] <Zarathust> o
[04:38] <Zarathust> i'm trying to copy a whole disk with dd but the transfer speed is about 250kbps
[04:38] <Zarathust> its gonna take ages
[04:38] <yaoyi> 大家好
[04:38] <lotus> nin-ja: are you positive it's not configured under tools->preferences->network->configure proxy to use anything other than "diret connection"?
[04:38] <Zarathust> is this normal?
[04:39] <Xubuntu> I really need help
[04:39] <Xubuntu> I installed Xubuntu with XP installed
[04:39] <nunya> nin-ja, good question...
[04:39] <yaoyi> 不知道这个怎么用耶
[04:39] <Xubuntu> However, I can't access either
[04:39] <lotus> Xubuntu: is it a boot loader issue?
[04:39] <nunya> it just helps narrow down what it could be.
[04:40] <Xubuntu> I believe so
[04:40] <StormTide> Can anyone recommend a partition layout for a 4-disk raid10 system to install 9.10 ... i understand boot needs its own raid1 device, and following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID ... swap doesn't ever appear to be placed into raid ... so what happens if a drive fails?
[04:40] <nunya> nin-ja, also check what lotus is saying.
[04:40] <Xubuntu> I checked with GParted and both partititions are still there
[04:40] <lotus> Xubuntu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows might be helpful
[04:41] <frosty> how can i have a custom greeting when i login to ssh?
[04:41] <Xubuntu> I will check it out thank you
[04:41] <ubutom2> nin-ja, nunya ,I had sometimes issues with miranda on XP that were solved by enabling an option like send keepalives or something like that, did'nt find that in Empathy tho
[04:41] <greezmunkey> StormTide, swap is temporary
[04:41] <frosty> like hello frosty!? or something
[04:41] <StormTide> greezmunkey, ya, but the box is gonna crash if an in-use swap drive goes away
[04:42] <StormTide> whereas if the swap was in raid 1, it would just hum along happily no?
[04:42] <daskreech> Izinucs: What is the vertical?
[04:42] <Izinucs> daskreech: 50-100
[04:42] <greezmunkey> StormTide: It is possible to use a swap file rather than a partition, although I don't know how "ubuntu standard" that approach is.
[04:43] <StormTide> greezmunkey, so the standard is to expect a crash and hope it reboots degraded correctly?
[04:43] <daskreech> frosty: /etc/motd
[04:43] <frosty> thanks
[04:43] <Losha> greezmunkey: as far as I know, swap files are fully supported...
[04:43] <StormTide> also, im questioning rather with no fstab linking the other 3 drives to swap... that is swap running only on sda in that setup instruction?
[04:44] <greezmunkey> StormTide: There you go, use a swap file, and place that on your RAID
[04:44] <nin-ja> lotus: I had some proxies active with pidgin i deactivated them, im now checking my network settings window
[04:44] <lotus> nin-ja: I'm sure you'll have better luck now.
[04:44] <StormTide> greezmunkey, on its own raid 1 (like boot) or just as a file on the raid10
[04:45] <lotus> nin-ja: unless you need a proxy to access the internet
[04:45] <lotus> nin-ja: in that case, I got nothing.
[04:45] <nunya> the force is strong in lotus
[04:45] <greezmunkey> StormTide: Just a file on the system...
[04:45] <Izinucs> daskreech: you gettin' there?
[04:45] <Losha> nunya: I was just thinking that...
[04:45] <nin-ja> lotus: Alright I hope it works now
[04:45] <lotus> nunya: These are not the droids you are looking for.
[04:45] <randomusr> how can I force cups to start when the system boots?
[04:45] <nunya> ha
[04:45] <frosty> you guys know any sort of ASCII Generator ? for terminal or a website
[04:46] <AbortD> lotus i dont have that black list directory
[04:46] <Izinucs> randomusr: did you install server then gnome?
[04:46] <daskreech> Izinucs: There was no xorg.conf I'm just putting back the one I had before it had the Horiz and Vert commented out (Way larger than those ranges)
[04:46] <lotus> AbortD: lucky you :) it caused me a headache or two.
[04:46] <randomusr> lzinucs, I'm just running the desktop 9.10
[04:46] <Losha> frosty: an ASCII generator? The man pages aren't random enough for you?
[04:46] <lotus> AbortD: it was /home/user/.config/indicators/messages/applications-blacklist
[04:46] <AbortD> :P
[04:47] <AbortD> i have no home/user
[04:47] <Izinucs> daskreech: ah.. that's weird.. the nvidia install should have asked you to create a xorg.. or maybe that's nvidia-settings that will do that.
[04:47] <daskreech> Izinucs: ok so I've moved it back to the /etc/X11/xorg.conf in theory I should be able to stop the display manager and start it back and X should read from the conf file?
[04:47] <lotus> AbortD: user is your username, boss.
[04:47] <bonez2046> my pc has been on all day, sound worked this morning and tonight now, it does not work. if I attempt to close firefox, in ubuntu 9.10 , I hear the drum sounds, and suspect the sound will be restored if I log out, but I'd like to just refresh whatever it is that is preventing sound from working now, without logging out
[04:47] <AbortD> home/.config
[04:47] <AbortD> oh
[04:47] <AbortD> haha
[04:47] <daskreech> Izinucs: nvidia-settings does taht
[04:47] <Izinucs> daskreech: yes
[04:47] <lotus> AbortD: ;)
[04:47] <AbortD> you should put un
[04:47] <darkk^> Does anyone use cryptsetup together with LVM? I have a strange problem after updating my karmic from just-from-dvd install to latest packages. I can't boot the system properly: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cryptsetup/+bug/450620/comments/18
[04:47] <nunya> Losha, /dev/urandom should be pretty random ;)
[04:47] <lotus> darkk^: I use full disk encryption with LVM
[04:48] <nin-ja> uh oh <_>
[04:48] <darkk^> lotus, /boot is usually unencrypted ;-)
[04:48] <nin-ja> Pidgin error -- "Received unexpected response from http://api.oscar.aol.com/aim/startOSCARSession"
[04:48] <lotus> darkk^: but I don't use dist-upgrades.  They break stuff for me.
[04:48] <oberdada> hello. An SD card mounts ok on my mini with SD port. However, on my desktop, where i have one of those multiformat USB card readers, the SD card mounts as read only. How can i get it to mount as read/write?
[04:48] <randomusr> lzinucs, how can I make cups start with the system?
[04:48] <lotus> darkk^: yeah, but that's gotta be how it is, yes?
[04:48] <AbortD> how do i restart the indicator?
[04:48] <Losha> nunya: frosty isn't talking, so it's hard to know what it's for....
[04:48] <lotus> darkk^: I like putting /boot on a jump drive ;)
[04:48] <shazbotmcnasty> where's the best place to purchase cpus?
[04:48] <shazbotmcnasty> s/place/site
[04:49] <darkk^> lotus, right. that was fresh karmic install, it was not dist-upgrade, I just installed latest security updates...
[04:49] <ubutom2> oberdada, you sure the mechanical switch on the sd-cardis set to writable?
[04:49] <Izinucs> randomusr: it should be a demon and start automatically.. if not then the only thing I can suggest is reinstalling cups.
[04:49] <SwimmingRat> oberdada, I have not had that problem. Multiformat card reader works like a charm. I realize that doesnt help you. It's FYI.
[04:49] <lotus> AbortD: short of rebooting, I'm not sure.  But there IS a way.
[04:49] <lotus> darkk^: oh, so what's the issue?
[04:49] <AbortD> brb
[04:49] <Losha> shazbotmcnasty: microcenter, newegg, frys when they have a combo sale....
[04:50] <darkk^> lotus, the system does not boot properly after kernel update (init=/bin/bash is not my dream) :-)
[04:50] <bonez2046> sound? what would cause sound to stop working?
[04:50] <Izinucs> ubutom2: I know you ment that you didn't do a release upgrade.. but a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade does not take you to the next release .. it only upgrades packages with your current version.. ie 9.10 or whatever.
[04:50] <lotus> darkk^: doesn't boot properly or doesn't boot at all?  Can you get your disk to decrypt?
[04:51] <darkk^> yes, it decrypts, init=/bin/bash works.
[04:51] <oberdada> SwimmingRat: thanks anyways. I was hoping someone among the other 1321 users knew something about that
[04:51] <Losha> bonez2046: I've seen people here claim that sound spontaneously stops working in 9.X....
[04:51] <darkk^> lotus, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cryptsetup/+bug/450620/comments/18 - details and sort of "screenshot" of boot log
[04:51] <oberdada> btw- the mechanical switch on the SD card is set to writeable
[04:52] <Izinucs> oberdada: did you try a different usb port for the adaptor?
[04:52] <bonez2046> Losha: thanks.. I know it will start working right with reboot.. it's just a pain..
[04:52] <shazbotmcnasty> Why do all the computer store websites suck?
[04:52] <Izinucs> shazbotmcnasty: try tigerdirect.com..
[04:52] <lotus> shazbotmcnasty: because you haven't gone to newegg.com
[04:52] <shazbotmcnasty> miccrodirect.com sucks
[04:52] <shazbotmcnasty> lotus, I have
[04:52] <shazbotmcnasty> it's meh
[04:52] <lotus> ;)
[04:52] <Izinucs> shazbotmcnasty: or newegg like lotus suggests.
[04:52] <lotus> I just like their policies
[04:52] <JimmyNeutron> newegg and zipzoomfly are pretty good to me
[04:52] <shazbotmcnasty> Izinucs, tigerdirect is not very good
[04:52] <lotus> darkk^: let me check my boot stuffs
[04:53] <shazbotmcnasty> their prices are like...mac prices
[04:53] <oberdada> lzinucs - the port i'm using is on the motherboard. The usb card reader is one of those that fits into the 3.5 floppy slot on the chassis
[04:53] <shazbotmcnasty> for cpus that is..
[04:53] <darkk^> lotus, according to /var/log/apt/... my kernel was upgraded from 2.6.31.14.27 to 2.6.31.20.33
[04:53] <Losha> bonez2046: you could try sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart ....
[04:53] <ubutom2> oberdada, is it also ubuntu on the otherpc?samefilesystem?
[04:53] <Izinucs> oberdada: ah.. that might be the issue.. I remember something from a while ago (1 year +) where some of those had issues... no idea why though.
[04:53] <oberdada> ubutom2: mini-8.04 desktop:8.10
[04:54] <lotus> darkk^: can you select your old kernel from the boot menu?
[04:54] <darkk^> lotus, no, it's not available
[04:54] <Blue11> i want to create a /home mount point on my 2nd drive -- but it's not letting me do that with the live cd, suggestions?
[04:54] <lotus> darkk^: I'm guessing you're running grub2 right?
[04:54] <Xubuntu> I tried sudo update-grub2 but it didn't work
[04:54] <Losha> shazbotmcnasty: if you're bargainhunting, slickdeals is a good resource....
[04:54] <darkk^> lotus, right.
[04:54] <oberdada> lzinucs- you're saying, the usb card reader is hopeless?
[04:55] <lotus> darkk^: did you try sudo update-grub ?
[04:55] <lotus> darkk^: you shouldn't have to, imho.
[04:55] <lotus> darkk^: but it couldn't hurt
[04:55] <darkk^> lotus, update-grub or update-grub2 ?
[04:55] <lotus> darkk^: ;) I don't know.
[04:56] <Xubuntu> I'm getting an dialog box in GParted that says "Failed to mount 82G volume. The enclosing drive for the volume is locked."
[04:56] <lotus> darkk^: but on my comp update-grub autocompletes (ie update-gr<tab>) as unique
[04:56] <lotus> and I'm quite confident I'm running grub2
[04:56] <hellyeah> hey
[04:56] <bilalakhtar> hey sabdfl is online on some channel. I dont know which channel
[04:56] <lotus> hellsyeah hellyeah
[04:56] <darkk^> lotus, hehe, update-grub2 is just a dumb wrapper that calls update-grub so there is no difference at all :-)
[04:56] <Losha> Blue11: I'd like to know what you're typing, and what it says when it fails for starters...
[04:56] <darkk^> lotus, now you know ;-)

[04:56] <JimmyNeutron> Anyone know how to disable the screen from going blank after about 5min of idling?  I disable the Power Management for the screen for both AC and Battery.
[04:57] <Blue11> Losha: sudo mkdir /home
[04:57] <Blue11> let me go to other system and get message
[04:57] <bonez2046> Losha: thanks..
[04:57] <hellyeah> when i do chroot /mnt/  chroot: cannot run command `/bin/bash': No such file or directory
[04:57] <Losha> bonez2046: did it make any difference?
[04:57] <lotus> AllYourBases: xD nice name
[04:57] <hellyeah> i see this error i am on ubuntu live system
[04:57] <ubutom2> oberdada, just read some similar problem,have you tried to copy something on it with sudo?
[04:58] <hellyeah> what can i do
[04:58] <mrowdy> Can I ask Ubuntu / Apache2 questions here? I'm new with both and need help seeing the perfectly obvious
[04:58] <Losha> mrowdy: you can...
[04:58] <lotus> mrowdy: I'm not sure what's "perfectly obvious" :)
[04:58] <frodwith> Hi folks.  I've just installed a wireless card (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000UOC3QK/ref=oss_product).  It's working for the most point, but it has a bit of a quirk.  At seemingly random intervals, the machine will stop accepting traffic from other machines on the network.  If I physically log into the machine and ping one of the other machines, suddenly it starts working again for a while.
[04:58] <darkk^> by the way, does anyone have an idea why SysRQ-B does not reboot my PC?
[04:58] <oberdada> ubutom2: yes. i've tried chmoding it- it wont let me
[04:58] <bonez2046> Losha: send me a bill, my new friend.. that fixed it.. I'll tuck that away!!!!
[04:58] <ubutom2> oberdada, in the text i readit randomly was mountedroor rw, then it was plugged in as another user and it worked
[04:59] <Losha> bonez2046: world:0 Losha:1
[04:59] <hellyeah> pls someone help me
[04:59] <mrowdy> lotus - I'm sure it must be obvious and I'm looking too hard!
[04:59] <darkk^> and echo b > /proc/sysrq-trigger works fine =)
[04:59] <mrowdy> Losha - thanks, I'm having problems with SSI at the moment
[04:59] <Blue11> it just gives me a command prompt but it never creates the home directory on sdb2
[04:59] <lotus> frodwith: update kernel (if you havent).  I have similar problems with WPA Enterprise networks
[04:59] <mrowdy> The shtml file loads but the server-parsed date doesn't show
[04:59] <bonez2046> :)
[04:59] <lotus> hellyeah: You're sure you're not booting off a CD into a Live environment?
[04:59] <mrowdy> I've restarted apache as root, so that shouldn't be the issue - right?
[04:59] <oberdada> ubutom2 - i tried mkfs'ing it. it didnt work (cannot format a mounted drive, cannot find the device if its not mounted)
[05:00] <darkk^> lotus, oops, kernel panic, unable to mount root fs ;-)
[05:00] <tecky> morning :X
[05:00] <hellyeah> i am booting live cd
[05:00] <frodwith> lotus: what did you upgrade to that fixed it?
[05:00] <lotus> mrowdy: I don't know if you're supposed to start apache as root.  I thought it ran as it's own user?
[05:00] <hellyeah> not i am in ubuntu live cd lotus
[05:00] <hellyeah> now*
[05:00] <oberdada> ubutom2: what d'you mean mounted roor rw?
[05:00] <Losha> Blue11: just typing mkdir /home will create a directory, but not necessarily on a particular device. You have to mount the device first e.g. sudo mount /dev/sdb2 /home
[05:00] <daskreech> Izinucs: Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude
[05:00] <lotus> frodwith: I haven't "fixed" yet.  I changed from network-manager to wicd and will find out tomorrow it it helps at all
[05:00] <lotus> mrowdy: I could be wrong
[05:01] <Izinucs> daskreech: yeaaaaaaa?  working?
[05:01] <frodwith> lotus: Ah.  I'm using wicd right now, actually.
[05:01] <mrowdy> lotus - I originally did it that way, but couldn't do the password authentication until I started as root
[05:01] <lotus> darkk^: ahh!
[05:01] <mrowdy> so I assumed that Ubuntu 8.04 has some security settings I don't know about
[05:01] <daskreech> Izinucs: My res is so high that all my fonts look like size 4
[05:01] <daskreech> It's like 1920 or something
[05:01] <daskreech> This is great!
[05:01] <lotus> mrowdy: password authentication on... what?
[05:01] <daskreech> now I can work on getting me some glasses!
[05:01] <hellyeah> i need help
[05:01] <Izinucs> daskreech: lol! .. you're there! ..
[05:01] <ubutom2> oberdada, in the example the user was able to write to the card with sudo nautilus
[05:01] <mrowdy> on an html page
[05:01] <lotus> frodwith: :D then try networkmanager ;)
[05:02] <lotus> mrowdy: probably a directory permissions problem
[05:02] <Izinucs> daskreech: I've done my good deed for the day.. now I can sleep :)
[05:02] <frodwith> lotus: rofl, might give that a shot.
[05:02] <daskreech> Izinucs: I don't beleive it was the horizontal sync the whole time. What on earth made it break
[05:02] <lotus> mrowdy: don't run your server as root.  IT's a really bad idea :)
[05:02] <oberdada> ubutom2: oh i see. i wasnt able to do that
[05:02] <ubutom2> oberdada, and he tried it with another normal user account and then the sd-card worked again, odd
[05:02] <daskreech> Izinucs: Sleep till Saturday
[05:02] <mrowdy> I'll restart it then, and what permissions do I need on a directory in which the shtml file resides?
[05:02] <Izinucs> daskreech: wish I could.. no idea what broke it.. but I'd make a copy of that xorg and save it in a safe place..
[05:03] <daskreech> Izinucs: I did already
[05:03] <Izinucs> :)
[05:03] <Izinucs> daskreech: enjoy!  I gotta run/sleep/dream
[05:03] <daskreech> Nice
[05:03] <daskreech> night
[05:04] <lotus> mrowdy: also, try asking in #httpd they'll be able to answer more specific apache problems.  But namei -l "file_with_password_stuffs" might be useful
[05:04] <nin-ja> ugh tonight is just not my night...
[05:04] <nin-ja> now its failing to read my external HD
[05:04] <hellyeah> chroot: cannot run command `/bin/bash': No such file or directory ubuntu live cd how can i fix that error
[05:04] <ryanrhee90> hi all. is there a way i can enable multicast on a ppp linK?
[05:04] <hellyeah> i try to configure grub
[05:04] <oberdada> the odd thing is, an usb stick mounts ok on the multiformat reader, but an SD card wont: it mounts as read-only
[05:04] <nin-ja> frustrating X_X
[05:04] <lotus> mrowdy: oh gosh, it's a good thing to know but I don't know it.  #web will know the permissions.  I think its 611 on directoris and 644 on files but I could be wrong.
[05:04] <darkk^> lotus, ok, now I have old kernel and new kernel, old one hangs some boot script and new one does not have initrd (that's why it can't mount root)
[05:04] <darkk^> lotus, stay tuned :-)
[05:05] <lotus> darkk^: I wish I could be more helpful.  I'm about ready to go to bed, though.  IT's 5:00 GMT!
[05:06] <mrowdy> lotus - I'll set 611 on the directory and check with #httpd
[05:06] <mrowdy> thankd
[05:06] <mrowdy> er
[05:06] <mrowdy> thanks
[05:06] <FloodBot3> mrowdy: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:06] <lotus> mrowdy: erg careful
[05:06] <lotus> mrowdy: 611 on EVERY directory leading upto the file is necessary for access to the file
[05:06] <lotus> mrowdy: If it is, indeed, 611 that directories need
[05:06] <lotus> mrowdy: that's why namei -l <path_to_file> is useful
[05:07] <mrowdy> ok
[05:08] <abstrakt> how do i get back to gdm?
[05:08] <nixpet> Hey all, I have a question regarding ubuntu 10.04 64 bit install and it giving a cannot create ext4 error on my drive when trying to do a fresh install, and the hard drives are good. Anyone have any hints?
[05:08] <abstrakt> i tried out kubuntu
[05:08] <abstrakt> now i wanna go back to GNOME
[05:09] <mtx_init> run xorg
[05:09] <bazhang> nixpet, #ubuntu+1 for lucid
[05:09] <nixpet> ty
[05:09] <abstrakt> mtx_init, run it? i'm in KDE right now, i would hope that xorg or something like it is running...
[05:09] <mortici> abstrakt, you did the same thing i did :)
[05:09] <abstrakt> mtx_init, obviously i can log out, choose GNOME as my session and log back in
[05:09] <mtx_init> abstrakt: sorry, I thought you were in the terminal.
[05:09] <mtx_init> thats usually the complaint
[05:10] <abstrakt> mortici, yeah so far switching to KDE and emacs instead of GNOME+vim has been epic fail
[05:10] <mortici> abstrakt, kde4 is an epic fail thats all :)
[05:10] <abstrakt> mortici, heh
[05:10] <abstrakt> so, how do i get back to GDM
[05:10] <abstrakt> can i run gconf-reconfigure gdm or something?
[05:10] <abstrakt> debconf reconfigure gdm?
[05:10] <edbian> abstrakt, Are you trying to restart GDM ?
[05:11] <Fixo> does anyone have the deb package of aMSN 0.98.3 ???
[05:11] <edbian> abstrakt, "sudo gdm"
[05:11] <edbian> Is it possible to copy DRM protected DVD in linux?
[05:11] <abstrakt> edbian, i'm in KDE right now, i set kdm as my default when it installed
[05:11] <mortici> edbian, he wants to set gdm as the default session manager
[05:11] <abstrakt> edbian, i want gdm to be my default now
[05:11] <abstrakt> mortici, yup
[05:11] <mortici> abstrakt, i would think dpkg-reconfigure gdm would do the trick
[05:11] <ubutom2> oberdada, did you try to connect the reader to the mini? if it doesn't work there either, it could be a driver bug, or sth like that, has it ever worked read/writable before with ubuntu?
[05:11] <abstrakt> mortici, k thx
[05:11] <edbian> abstrakt, "dpkg --reconfigure gdm" is my guess
[05:12] <whateversam> Hello everyone.  I've been wondering if it is possible to run the x.server for a single application from the cmd shell.  I'm wondering this because I would like to know if it's possible to harness all of the hardware on a computer for a single program at once.
[05:12] <whateversam> Mainly this would be for virtual PCs and/or gaming.
[05:12] <mortici> stupid laptop, upgraded 10.04 and now it hardlocks when it gets to GDM and i start to type, if i don't type its fine, if im in recovery its fine with typeing, the moment i continue the reboot it fails
[05:13] <whateversam> Any ideas on if this would be possible?
[05:13] <oberdada> ubutum2: i've not tried to connect it to the mini. the reader is one of those that fits into the 3.5 floppy space on a desktop computer
[05:13] <bazhang> mortici, sounds like a bug, also lucid is in #ubuntu+1
[05:13] <mortici> bazhang, indeed and indeed, just sayin' :P
[05:13] <lappie> can i check out 10.04 via live cd?
[05:13] <Tamnakz> I know this isn't the right channel, but can someone help me with some basic questions about wireless security?
[05:13] <PsychoticEGG> So I'm trying to setup VirtualBox. But it's not recognising that I have a windows DvD in my DvD drive. Ubuntu see's it but my virtual box does not. it just says "no bootable medium found! System halted" any help?
[05:13] <bazhang> whateversam, which application? virtualbox?
[05:14] <JimmyNeutron> Anyone know how to disable the screen from going blank after about 5min of idling?  I disable the Power Management for the screen for both AC and Battery.
[05:14] <hmw> A friend installed sshd on a friends 9.10 live cd. can I log in with user:"ubuntu"? what is the password?
[05:14] <mortici> Psychoholic, mount the drive prior to launching the session
[05:14] <whateversam> bazhang, Sure, virtualbox would be great.  Being about to pick and choose would be better though.
[05:14] <mortici> or enable passive mode
[05:14] <lappie> JimmyNeutron screensaver?
[05:14] <ubutom2> oberdada, I don't have one of those,I'm using a camera in SD-Card Reader modesometimes,maybe this would be a workaround until you find a way to fix your problem
[05:15] <PsychoticEGG> how? still new to ubuntu
[05:15] <JimmyNeutron> lappie, I didnt see any screensaver...just a blank screen...I'll double check
[05:15] <abstrakt> holy epic fail batman!
[05:15] <bazhang> whateversam, you would need to specify more clearly what you are trying to do, doubtful that vbox would need 'all your system resources'
[05:15] <ubutom2> oberdada, in = as
[05:15] <abstrakt> lol, back to good ol' GNOME
[05:15] <abstrakt> w00t
[05:15] <abstrakt> GNOME+vim ftw
[05:15] <abstrakt> for real
[05:15] <mortici> PsychoticEGG, launche Vbox, click your installation (win7) click settings, click Storage, select the CD rom and enable passthrough
[05:15] <oberdada> ok. thanks ubutom2
[05:15] <abstrakt> thx peeps, ttyl
[05:16] <Ashok> how to join for java channel help me any one
[05:16] <mortici> Ashok, /join #java
[05:16] <bazhang> Ashok, /join #channelname
[05:16] <ubutom2> ok, it's late, i don't know what I'm typing anymore,lol, I meant I use the cameras as an sd-card reader and in sd-card-reader mode _)
[05:16] <whateversam> Bazhang, Well I'm thinking that if one pulled it off they would be using 100% hardware for Virtualbox/Wine for 3D gaming at peak preformance.
[05:16] <Ashok> where to enter tat
[05:17] <hellyeah> grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[05:17] <Ashok> bazhang: where to enter how to join
[05:17] <hellyeah> why it doesnt work
[05:17] <mortici> Psychoholic, also if you have the iso for win7 you can attach it to the drive there :)
[05:17] <ubutom2> oberdada, the two computers aren't on a LAN I suggest?
[05:17] <oberdada> nope
[05:17] <git__> does suspend and resume work in Ubuntu 9.10?
[05:17] <bazhang> whateversam, didn't know that vbox allowed 3D gaming; wine would seem the only option, but using everything for wine would not take all the resources, as there a ton of other things that need to run as well
[05:18] <AbortD> lot
[05:18] <bazhang> Ashok, where you are typing right now
[05:18] <hellyeah> ps someone help me
[05:18] <Ashok> it is showin unsupported command
[05:18] <bazhang> Ashok, without the space----> /join #channelyouwishtojoin
[05:18] <Ashok> bazhang: it is showin unsupported command
[05:18] <ubutom2> oberdada, and the reader has worked before with ubuntu or was it always like that?
[05:18] <bazhang> Ashok, which irc client
[05:19] <blondinka> люди помогите: веб камера отоброжает в  корчневом диапозоне. ТОЛЬКО выличила ее зеленость в скайпе, установила в системе а тут такое.
[05:19] <Ashok> freenode
[05:19] <oberdada> i've not tried it on windows, as my windows partition on the pc died
[05:19] <bazhang> blondinka, #ubuntu-ru
[05:19] <blondinka> уже
[05:19] <oberdada> just ubuntu, ututom2
[05:19] <blondinka> молчуны там
[05:19] <mortici> Ashok, the text box you are typing in now type:/join #java
[05:19] <Madpilot> Ashok, not network, but IRC client - xchat? xchat-gnome?
[05:19] <Ashok> bazhang: freenode
[05:19] <hellyeah> there is a channel like ubuntulive
[05:19] <bazhang> blondinka, english here, /join #ubuntu-ru
[05:19] <dsnyders> blondinka, Your text is all scrambled
[05:20] <ubutom2> oberdada, what I mean is, did you manage to use the reader with ubuntu before as intended?
[05:20] <edbian> Is it possible to rip a DRM protected DVD in linux?
[05:20] <bazhang> Ashok, freenode is not an irc client; xchat, pidgin, irssi, etc are
[05:20] <Ashok> mortici:showing unsupported command
[05:20] <ubutom2> i.e. mounting an SD-Card rewritable
[05:20] <PsychoticEGG> thank you
[05:20] <mortici> what are you typing?
[05:20] <Ashok> xchattel me how to join in xchat
[05:20] <bazhang> edbian, using libdvdcss from medibuntu and k9copy? should be
[05:20] <whateversam> bazhang, I'm still learning about linux, but from what I've seen one can control the x server after it is running.  (alt+ctrl+f1, and reboot x with options enabled.)  I'm working on the theory that it may be possible to run x only for your game.  While you game the rest of the programs can sit without x support.
[05:20] <dsnyders> edbian, it all depends on the DVD.  No way to tell except by trying a few ways.
[05:20] <nonameNN> any program to read pdb files??
[05:21] <Ashok> mortici:/join#java
[05:21] <oberdada> ubutom2: nope. never could use it as intended on the machine its on. the read-only SD card wont even let me Gparted it
[05:21] <edbian> dsnyders, Thanks
[05:21] <edbian> bazhang,
[05:21] <Madpilot> Ashok, like that, only with a space "/join #java"
[05:21] <mortici> Ashok, /join #java
[05:21] <skydrome> can someone help me with this real quick? > http://pastebin.com/ys7NammX
[05:22] <Ashok> mortici:unsupported command agian
[05:22] <ubutom2> oberdada, hm, ok,as I don't know how to fix this, my advice would be to replace the reader, if possible :)
[05:22] <bazhang> Ashok, you have yet to tell us your irc client
[05:22] <ubutom2> oberdada, or maybe you can test a live cd with it
[05:22] <dsnyders> edbian, I've had some success with mplayer's dumpstream option.
[05:22] <mortici> Ashok, it should be typed "/join #java" NO QUOTES
[05:22] <ubutom2> oberdada, or even consider an upgrade to 9.10
[05:22] <Ashok> bazhang, xchat
[05:23] <bazhang> Ashok, can you right click?
[05:23] <lappie> blondinka I Dont думаю, что кто здесь говорит russion, попробуйте Google http://translate.google.com Переводчик
[05:23] <Madpilot> Ashok, xchat or xchat-gnome? there is a difference, but AFAIK both will support "/join <channel>" typed in
[05:23] <Ashok> bazhang, where
[05:23] <bazhang> lappie, #ubuntu-ru for Russian
[05:23] <mortici> Ashok, what about going to Server in the menu bar up top, then clicking join channel...
[05:23] <bazhang> Ashok, #java   right click that join channel
[05:24] <ubutom2> oberdada, there's a chance it could be working with a newer release
[05:24] <oberdada> that's an idea
[05:24] <kendisk> 呵呵
[05:24] <Ashok> bazhang, xchat irc
[05:24] <lappie> blondinka или типа / присоединиться Ubuntu-RU для русского комнату

[05:24] <bazhang> lappie, he is in there already
[05:25] <elipsys> alguien habla español ?
[05:25] <mortici> bazhang, if he can't do none of those three methods, i declare him a troll :)
[05:25] <Madpilot> blondinka, lappie - English here in #ubuntu, please. Russian in #ubuntu-ru.
[05:25] <bazhang> dsnyders, its chinese
[05:25] <lappie> ahh mkay
[05:25] <bazhang> mortici, not a troll, just not technically minded
[05:25] <dsnyders> bazhang, can't be.  This is an english language chat.
[05:25] <elipsys> algun español en el server ??
[05:25] <bazhang> dsnyders, many other language users come here and are re-directed.

[05:26] <elipsys> bazhang   ok , tk
[05:26] <mortici> jaybreese, in the lower right corner right click the desktop picker, and increase the count to 4 :)
[05:26] <lappie> jaybreese do you have more than 2 workspaces?
[05:27] <bazhang> mortici, that is for desktops, he need s to choose in ccsm
[05:27] <mortici> bazhang, it updates in ccsm :)

[05:29] <hmw> I cant apt-get install from a live cd, I am connected to via ssh. How can I make it install x11vnc server?
[05:29] <bazhang> jasonop8, ubuntu support question in there?

[05:30] <bazhang> disappearedng, you may try banshee, depends on your needs
[05:30] <Madpilot> disappearedng, define "better"... for simple album playing, I love Muine. Simple, fast & elegant.
[05:30] <jasonop8> nope...but I'm just happy is all.
[05:30] <bazhang> Ashok, are you registered and identified to services? #freenode  right click join that channel for help
[05:30] <dsnyders> disappearedng, I use mplayer for everything.
[05:30] <jasonop8> I don't need any support. not now at least.
[05:31] <lappie> Ashok are you connected to the right server that hosts the java channels? i think ure wanting freenode, but u can get to this channel from the ubuntu server or freenode
[05:31] <bazhang> jasonop8, okay, general chat in #ubuntu-offtopic , please
[05:31] <nin-ja> to do a manual installation of ubuntu, what partitions do I need, and what sizes are absolutely necessary?
[05:31] <hmw> I cant apt-get install from a live cd, I am connected to via ssh. How can I make it install x11vnc server?
[05:31] <bazhang> nin-ja, do you wish a separate home partition?
[05:31] <maginot> Hi. Can someone tell me what rules or application is responsable for automonting drives like pen-drives, usb disks, etc ? (maybe udev?)
[05:32] <bazhang> nin-ja, /  swap /boot at least
[05:32] <jasonop8> just out of curiousity, but are you an admin or something?
[05:32] <nin-ja> bazhang: would a home partition make it run faster?
[05:32] <Madpilot> lappie, the 'ubuntu servers' just forward straight to Freenode, far as I know
[05:32] <nin-ja> bazhang: and how large must the swap be?
[05:33] <jasonop8> and actually, I do have a question, but there's no point in asking in the windows room, because they don't know anything..
[05:33] <bazhang> nin-ja, home partition is useful when things go awry or you wish to protect and fresh install but keep all your stuff
[05:33] <bazhang> jasonop8, then /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:33] <bazhang> nin-ja, is this a laptop
[05:33] <jasonop8> okay..so are you an admin?
[05:33] <nin-ja> bazhang i'll have a general partition in fat 32 for that XD;
[05:33] <nin-ja> bazhang: yes its a laptop D=
[05:34] <bazhang> nin-ja, fat32 for what
[05:34] <nin-ja> bazhang: a kind of backup partition that both windows and linux can use
[05:34] <bazhang> nin-ja, use ntfs for sharing with other OS
[05:34] <jasonop8> dick
[05:34]  * maginot thinks if auto-mounting devices is related to hal-storage-mount... 
[05:34] <bazhang> nin-ja, do you wish to hibernate?
[05:34] <nin-ja> bazhang: ya XD;
[05:35] <bazhang> nin-ja, how much ram
[05:35] <nin-ja> bazhang: 2Gb
[05:36] <bazhang> nin-ja, greater or equal to ram iirc best to be safe and give it 3GB
[05:36] <fiyawerx> is there a point when as a stabber you should switch to long blades, or are short alway the best way to go
[05:36] <fiyawerx> hm, wrong channel
[05:36] <lappie> maginot my best guess is pysdm
[05:37] <lappie> maginot maybe this is the info you
[05:37] <dsnyders> fiyawerx, /join #assassin
[05:37] <maginot> finally someone to talk ;)
[05:37] <lappie> r lookin http://maketecheasier.com/auto-mount-your-ntfs-partition-in-ubuntu/2009/04/14
[05:37] <lappie> stupid fat finger rofl
[05:37] <Madpilot> fiyawerx, I think you just won some sort of award for most random thing ever posted here...
[05:37] <nin-ja> bazhang: unfortunately it would be quite a task to upgrade the ram more.  And its a bit old, so i'm not too interested in upgrading the laptop =\
[05:37] <maginot> lappie, Hmmm let me take a look, just a sec .. .
[05:37] <maginot> ah
[05:37] <bazhang> nin-ja, 3GB for swap, not upgrade the ram
[05:37] <nin-ja> bazhang: OH XDD;
[05:38] <fiyawerx> dsnyders, its for ##crawl, actually
[05:38] <nin-ja> bazhang: so i just need, 3GB swap, a boot partition which is the root im guessing and thats it?
[05:39] <maginot> lappie, actually there is nothing to do with ntfs, well, I'm curious to know how does ubuntu (or maybe some other distro who does the same) automount usb devices when they are plugged, I have build a lfs distribution and still haven't this working on it, so maybe I could use the same ubuntu uses...
[05:39] <lappie> oh, thats way beyond me :) sorry
[05:39] <Madpilot> nin-ja, /boot is not root. you likely need both
[05:39] <maginot> lappie,  okay, thanks anyway =)
[05:40] <bazhang> nin-ja, 250mb or so for /boot  3GB for swap   the rest for /   unless you wish a separate home partition
[05:40] <saganbyte> Hello
[05:40] <lappie> maginot np good luck rofl
[05:40] <dsnyders> fiyawerx, I meant assassin as in hired killer, not the game. :-)
[05:40] <nin-ja> bazhang: alright thanks!
[05:40] <saganbyte> What is the difference between apt-get install and aptitude install
[05:40] <maginot> bazhang,  Hmm 250mb for boot is way enought, I wonder if you will ever use all this space there
[05:40] <nin-ja> bazhang: anything else i should know while creating the partitions?
[05:41] <bazhang> nin-ja, decide if you wish a separate home partition or not
[05:41] <ftab> for some reason the file path before $ from my bash shell has disappeared and not it is showing only -bash-2.2$
[05:41] <maginot> and I don't tink 3gb of swap will ever work anyway
[05:41] <maginot> =)
[05:41] <ftab> how can I get my patch back before $ sign
[05:41] <ar0n> is compiz fusion or gtk the better or "Crazier" of the two ?
[05:41] <ar0n> im lookin to goof around with a flashy desktop etc
[05:42] <nimrod10> saganbyte, not much difference there both accomplish the same thing
[05:42] <bazhang> ar0n, compiz has more flashy features
[05:42] <nimrod10> saganbyte, stick to using aptitude in my opinion , more easy to  use
[05:42] <nin-ja> bazhang: sure i mind as well seperate a home partition as well
[05:42] <maginot> ar0n, they are different
[05:43] <saganbyte> nimrod10, Okay.. thanks
[05:43] <maginot> ar0n, compiz gives you more eyecand
[05:43] <nimrod10> !aptitude saganbyte
[05:43] <nimrod10> saganbyte, !aptitude
[05:43] <maginot> ar0n, and compiz have some filters proper to deal with effects not available on gtk
[05:44] <ftab>  for some reason the file path before $ from my bash shell has disappeared and not it is showing only -bash-2.2$
[05:44] <smick2> Is there a way to turn off and turn back on the graphical environment like to save memory and let your Desktop run as a server.  Then you can SSH back in and call up the desktop GUI when you want to?
[05:44] <soreau> ar0n: What kind of graphics card do you have?
[05:44] <nin-ja> bazhang: oh what should the boot file format be?
[05:44] <maginot> ftab, /etc/profile have you looked there? or on ~/.bashrc ?
[05:45] <nimrod10> !aptitude | nimrod10
[05:45] <FloodBot3> !netsplit
[05:45] <ftab> maginot, that file is empty
[05:45] <maginot> ftab, which one?
[05:46] <ftab> ~/.bashrc
[05:46] <maginot> ftab, thats your problem..
[05:46] <maginot> ftab, so its using the default on /etc/profile
[05:46] <nin-ja> bazhang: should i put the /boot partition before the swap? or does that really matter?
[05:47] <ftab> maginot, then what I need to do to force bash to remember the folder path
[05:47] <ftab> ?
[05:47] <maginot> ftab, you must have something like this on /etc/profile http://maginot.pastebin.com/jA5JvYy5
[05:47] <maginot> ftab, no. you profile must look like the one I pointed you
[05:48] <nin-ja> um... i was doing a manual partition for ubuntu, and I was wondering if the SWAP partition should come before or after the /boot partition
[05:48] <ftab> ok
[05:48] <nin-ja> or if it really mattered
[05:48] <git__> hey, the update fixed my sound
[05:48] <git__> yay!
[05:48] <ar0n> it doesnt matter nin-ja
[05:48] <git__> the update didn't fix resume/suspend though
[05:48] <ar0n> i did / swap home tho
[05:48] <smick2> does init3 disable the gui?
[05:48] <nin-ja> ar0n: cool good to know
[05:49] <smick2> and will init3 gain me memory?
[05:49] <maginot> ftab, if you can't edit /etc/profile cut and past that inside a new file called .bashrc on you home folder. But take care to not overwrite something, do it if you ~/.bashrc is inexistent or empty
[05:49] <nin-ja> ar0n: what formats did you use for home and root?
[05:50] <nin-ja> ar0n: i was just going to use ext4, i dont really know the difference between ext4 and the other exts tho
[05:50] <ftab> maginot, it worked like a charm, i wanted that for all users :-)
[05:50] <aldaek> is automatix still around?
[05:50] <ftab> maginot, btw which line is responsible for that ?
[05:50] <bazhang> aldaek, no. not supported either
[05:51] <maginot> ftab, yep, put inside /etc/profile
[05:51] <maginot> actually that is supposed to be your /etc/profile
[05:51] <nomad77> ftab: the PS1= is your prompt
[05:52] <benjamin_> hi
[05:52] <maginot> Hi
[05:52] <ftab> maginot, ok got you thanks for your help
[05:52] <maginot> ne
[05:53] <isolat3dsh33p> KindOne, what a disaster... D:
[05:53] <adrian2mil10> hi , anyone known how can change font color in the messages meanwhile boot process ??, i quit the splash to see the messages and i want change font color
[05:53] <maginot> ftab, you're welcome
[05:53] <maginot> netjoing, always funny =X
[05:53] <maginot> adrian2mil10, for everything of just something specific ?
[05:53] <ar0n> what is the SUPER key in all these compiz settings guys
[05:53] <isolat3dsh33p> adrian2mil10, you mean the grub?
[05:53] <maginot> ar0n, windows key
[05:54] <adrian2mil10> maginot > all
[05:54] <bazhang> ar0n, windows key
[05:54] <adrian2mil10> isolat3dsh33p > after grub when begin the load of kernel
[05:55] <isolat3dsh33p> adrian2mil10, I'm not sure how to do that. So you don't liek the funkeh xsplash huh. :/
[05:56] <maginot> adrian2mil10, do you use framebuffer?
 i don't wanna splash , i kick off the splash , i want see the kernel load messages
[05:56] <KindOne> Ashok: please ask your question again, since everyone is back.
[05:56] <maginot> adrian2mil10, you have to open /etc/inittab
[05:57] <maginot> adrian2mil10, after each getty line you put -I `setterm -clear all -foreground green -bold -store`
[05:57] <maginot> change green and bold for whatever you want
[05:57] <adrian2mil10> magintot > i have in cmdline the order vga=0x317
[05:58] <isolat3dsh33p> adrian2mil10, maybe you could check files in /boot :/
[05:58] <maginot> adrian2mil10, did you get what I told you? Or its that way or you can recompile your kernel. Its up to you ;)
[05:58] <maginot> isolat3dsh33p, no.
[05:58] <isolat3dsh33p> maginot, so no config file huh. :/
[05:58] <maginot> isolat3dsh33p, read above. You can edit /etc/inittab or recompile the kernel with option WS_KERNEL_FG=WSCOL_BLACK
 i'm using stock ubuntu kernel , only want change the  font color and no splash
[05:59] <Ashok> can i get java information here
[05:59] <maginot> adrian2mil10, read above, please. I just answered your question.
[05:59] <bazhang> Ashok, /join #java
[05:59] <maginot> adrian2mil10, again. Open /etc/inittab and after each getty line you put -I `setterm -clear all -foreground green -bold -store`
 yes thanks , you say change initab
[06:00] <maginot> adrian2mil10, change green for the color you want and took off -bold if you want. that is it.
[06:00] <nomad77> adrian2mil10: could try splash=silent verbose on the kernel root=/dev/foo line in grub.for kernel messages while booting
[06:01] <maginot> adrian2mil10, and don't get confused, is inittab, with double "t"
 maybe for try the first time it's a good idea
 yes , inittab
[06:02] <maginot> of course, thats for changing the color, to have no boot splash is like nomad77 told.
i remenber one time i probing federo livecd i like the startup boot screen process showing the load with font color
[06:03] <lappie> since maginot brought up the question about mounting devices n such, i was wondering, is there a way to not show mounded devices on the desktop?
i remenber one time i probing fedora livecd i like the startup boot screen process showing the load with font color
[06:03] <maginot> adrian2mil10,  you can make it permanent chaning /boot/grub/menu.lst
[06:04] <goddard> I know this isn'
[06:04] <goddard> I know this isn't the right place but anyone know a good xbox 360 channel?
i don't  using menu.lst anymore , i'm using burg
[06:05] <maginot> adrian2mil10, sorry, I'm getting confused of what you're trying to achieve. If the idea is to take of the image and keep the text, so you have all information, but changing the boot splash I can't help you. And sorry, don't know burg.
[06:05] <maginot> lappie, yep there is, but first I have to know how to make they appear there to help you... lol
no , i quit the usplash  , i want to see the kernel load messages with font in color not withe
[06:06] <maginot> lappie, I think I'm almost there, just tweaking ubuntu around trying to get it...
[06:06] <lappie> maginot i used the program i linked 2 u earlier to automatically mount my ntfs partition so i can access my public folder from windows :)
[06:06] <maginot> adrian2mil10, so you have all you need, take the boot splash like nomad77 said (or whetever burg does) and use the /etc/inittab for the colors
[06:06] <lappie> maginot act i think i just found my answer , how-to-geek has a page on it :)
[06:07] <maginot> lappie, but I'm trying to put some native support, like with hal and udev...
thanks , i will try
[06:07] <maginot> adrian2mil10, tell us later if it worked ;)
[06:07] <maginot> lappie, can I see it ? ;D
[06:07] <lappie> sure
[06:08] <spiky25> who tried beta 1 as a main install here ?
[06:08] <lappie> http://maketecheasier.com/auto-mount-your-ntfs-partition-in-ubuntu/2009/04/14 maginot there u go :_
[06:08] <bazhang> spiky25, lucid support in #ubuntu+1
[06:08] <lappie> oops, wrong window
[06:08] <lappie> 1 sec
[06:09] <maginot> lappie, actually I'm more interesting on the how-to-geek link, maybe reversing it could help me understand my problem.
[06:09] <lappie> maginot sorry this is the correct page http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/hide-removable-drive-icons-from-your-ubuntu-desktop/
[06:10] <ftab> I need to set motd with some good formatting and extra large font how can I do that, what is the utility for that to generate a big font text?
[06:10] <maginot> lappie, nah, was just a gconf configuration with nautilus... I think I will have to keep looking.
[06:10] <lostin> I need a very simple photo editor (comprable to mspaint,  need circles, squares, text and lines with the ability to save).  Ive just spent 2 hrs on a photo with gimp that should have been quick (slow computer...requires simpler software).
[06:10] <maginot> ftab, thats don't work this way.
 karmic don't have inittab , it was replaced i believe for rc-default but i'm not sure
[06:10] <maginot> ftab, man motd
[06:10] <lappie> maginot search on how to geeks site, u may just be supprised
[06:11] <ar0n> hmm guys i just noticed my flash isnt working, i have the plugin..
[06:11] <moza> Hi everybody, I'm trying to put labels on two newly created partitions (one in ext3, the other in fat32). I used Gparted. Do you know how to put labels ?
[06:11] <ftab> maginot, I understand, but when I login I want to see some big font Into text
[06:11] <maginot> lappie, yep, maybe I will.. maybe I will, thanks
[06:12] <maginot> ftab, thats not an option.
[06:12] <maginot> did you readed about motd ?
[06:12] <lappie> maginot hope u find what your lookin for, his site has all kinds of stuff :)
[06:13]  * maginot finishes compiling the linux-2.6.30.10 with aufs and squashfs ;D 
[06:13] <ftab> maginot, yes, then I guess I might be referring to some thing else, I have seen computers when I login I see an intro text whose font is large
[06:13] <maginot> ftab, ascii art ?
[06:13] <ftab> maginot exactly :-)
[06:14] <maginot> ftab, so just make some ascii art and put there... isn't big fonts, are just a illusion ;)
[06:14] <maginot> *s/isn't/aren't/g
[06:14] <ftab> maginot, I forgot the name ascii art, that's why I was using the term big font :-)
[06:14] <ftab> maginot do you know any linux utility for that?
[06:15] <lappie> that is an ooooolllld word thats for sure rofl, havent seen ascii art since bbs days
[06:15] <Flannel> ftab: try figlet or http://ascii.dtools.net/
[06:15] <maginot> ftab, search on google, many sites provides that. Just search for ascii art
[06:15] <Losha> lappie: I remember seeing asci animation art!

[06:30] <Guest61371> difficult to use but sexy nin-ja
[06:30] <ar0n> file name of the plugin yea
[06:31] <ar0n> er vlc multimedia plugin
[06:31] <ar0n> sorry.
[06:31] <maginot> ar0n, you must have Shockwave Flash (libflashplayer.so)
[06:31] <SwimmingRat> Ubuntu died. again. Firefox at the Jon Stewart site. Went into a dound loop repeating the same sound and froze. (Had past trouble and took CD out as advised and no problems for a week since.) Ubuntu 9.10 on AMD 32bit, only ubuntu no windows at all. But now there's no problem normally eremite except that chrome goes on audio strike from time to time. Now I am NOT using any CD.
[06:31] <maginot> ar0n, try this, lets find out if you really have flash: find / | grep libflashplayer.so
[06:32] <ar0n> whats the cli to extract a tar to a certain place
[06:32] <darkk^> Hmmm. Seeems, running update-initramfs made my system unbootable. Is it bug? :-)
[06:32] <maginot> ar0n, if you search result is too long use pastebin
[06:32] <maginot> !pastebin
[06:33] <Guest61371> how do I pause totem via ssh?
[06:33] <ww_> help
[06:33] <ar0n> like i have this on my desktop magic_ninjai
[06:33] <ar0n> maginot
[06:33] <maginot> ww_, are you dying ? ;P
[06:33] <maginot> ar0n, ?
[06:33] <ar0n> i just need to move it to ~/.mozilla/plugins
[06:33] <nin-ja> hmmm i'm already starting to miss regular ubuntu on this laptop
[06:34] <maginot> ar0n, could work, not recommended but could work.
[06:34] <ar0n> well it doesnt seem to be there
[06:34] <BluShift> GO BACK TO WINDOWS.
[06:34] <ar0n> so lets get it there...then i can try to move this version of it to there
[06:34] <simoncpu> windows?
[06:34] <ar0n> cause this was a fix i was going ot try..
[06:34] <simoncpu> why would i go back to windows?
[06:35] <SwimmingRat> Ubuntu FROZE. again. While repeating a sound. I was in Firefox at the Jon Stewart site. Went into a sound loop repeating the same sound and froze. (In past had freezing trouble. took CD out as advised and no problems for a week since.) System is: Ubuntu 9.10 on AMD 32bit, only ubuntu no windows at all. FYI, one other chronic issue that chrome goes on audio strike from time to time. Still no CD in drive.
[06:35] <Guest61371> BluShift, please don't use that sort of language here ?!
[06:35] <SwimmingRat> can you help?
[06:35] <maginot> ar0n, the right thing you should do is copy the plugin to /usr/mozilla/plugins and them make a link to /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/
[06:35] <ar0n> yeah but what would be the proper way to do it, without using this other plugin i just grabbed
[06:35] <SwimmingRat> windows: you want to use your webcam. you need to run Photoshop. That's 2.
[06:36] <ar0n> oh wait i get it
[06:36] <Guest61371> SwimmingRat, both work in ubuntu. photoshop only up to CS2
[06:36] <scribawf> How do I invoke GUI from Terminal console?
[06:36] <maginot> ar0n, btw, if you download flash player from its site you can just use its install as root.
[06:37] <simoncpu> BluShift: are you a windows user?
[06:37] <maginot> scribawf, there are many ways.
[06:37] <SwimmingRat> Guest61371, really, I have photoshop elements can I make that work? And how do I call anyone on ekiga? they all use skype.
[06:37] <SwimmingRat> <-- eager to learn
[06:37] <BluShift> simoncpu: Yeah, because it's way better than Ubuntu.
[06:37] <scribawf> maginot: and they are?
[06:37] <simoncpu> BluShift: i tried typing "dir" on my console and it works just like in windows
[06:37] <BluShift> simoncpu: What about you?
[06:37] <simoncpu> but i wonder why dir /a /s doesn't work
[06:37] <lappie> blushift windows is goin DOWWNNN rofl
[06:37] <maginot> scribawf, using dbus-launch, startx, gdm, kdm, and so on ... but I'm not here to make you home work =)
[06:37] <simoncpu> BluShift: i'm new to ubuntu
[06:37] <Guest61371> SwimmingRat, photohsop elements is not photoshop and I use skype in ubuntu with my webcam just fine
[06:38] <BluShift> simoncpu: Why use the cli when you can use WINDOWS?
[06:38] <ardchoille> Please take the Windows discussion to another channel
[06:38] <simoncpu> BluShift: why doesn't dir work on Ubuntu?
[06:38] <scribawf> maginot:  well that's a start tnx much
[06:38] <BluShift> simoncpu: Because it's not as good, durr.
[06:38] <Guest61371> simoncpu, because ls is shorter...
[06:38] <scribawf> maginot:  well that's a start tnx much
[06:38] <maginot> scribawf, startx its the first thing do do the magic, them the proper way is using gdm or kdm or xdm
[06:38] <BluShift> Guest61371: You're a noob. We dont talk to noobs.
[06:38] <simoncpu> but i don't think the net energy savings of using one less character is significant
[06:38] <SwimmingRat> interesting dir -a -s works.  But why? Years ago I had Linux commands for windows in DOS and they were so much better. (that dates me!)
[06:39] <ardchoille> !coc | BluShift
[06:39] <scribawf> maginot, did fresh install Karmic and boots but goes to blank screen
[06:39] <simoncpu> whoa... dir -a -s works
[06:39] <Guest61371> BluShift, what are you talking about?
[06:39] <simoncpu> BluShift: proof that Ubuntu doesn't suck
[06:39] <maginot> BluShift, you are a pro ahn ? okay, give me a break.
[06:39] <BluShift> ubottu: It's called the CoC? Har har har har.
[06:39] <simoncpu> ubottu: thank you
[06:39] <maginot> scribawf, after booting or when starting booting ?
[06:40] <timboy> is it possible to pause totem via ssh?
[06:40] <BluShift> I love Windows. Don't you, simoncpu?
[06:40] <SwimmingRat> pardon me but IRL everything sucks or everything is a wonder. IT'S THE ATTITUDE STUPID.
[06:40] <scribawf> maginot:  uh, guess during booting or start of would be better way to say it
[06:40] <SuspectZero> how can i install grub4dos through ubuntu?
[06:40] <ubutom2> BluShift, ubottu is a bot, just fyi
[06:40] <simoncpu> BluShift: i hate windows because i am 3771te hax000rs!!!!
[06:40] <ardchoille> !ot
[06:41] <SuspectZero> ardchoille, directed at me?
[06:41] <ar0n> magic_ninjai
[06:41] <ar0n> maginot
[06:41] <ar0n> you mind if i pm please
[06:41] <BluShift> simoncpu: I like Windows because I'm not a dumb linux-loser!
[06:41] <SwimmingRat> hi I AM ACTUALLY LOOKING FOR SUPPORT AND i KNOW HOW TO IGNORE PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT HERE FOR THE PURPOSE OF THE CHANNEL. OK wont do caps again. sort of apologies already.
[06:41] <maginot> ar0n, no PM please. Just ask on the channel .
[06:41] <BluShift> SwimmingRat: No moar caps rape pl0z.
[06:41] <BluShift> WOOOO CAPS RAPE.
[06:41] <ar0n> np im tryingto load an apturl from adobe it says package not found
[06:41] <ardchoille> !ops | BluShift  needs a hint about etiquette
[06:41] <simoncpu> BluShift you bit me... and it hurts!
[06:41] <maginot> scribawf, try changing you boot option in the grub menu, you know how to do that?
[06:42] <nomad77> ar0n: after plugin is in proper place do sudo /sbin/ldconfig to be safe
[06:42] <SwimmingRat> Ubuntu FROZE. again. While repeating a sound. I was in Firefox at the Jon Stewart site. Went into a sound loop repeating the same sound and froze. (In past had freezing trouble. took CD out as advised and no problems for a week since.) System is: Ubuntu 9.10 on AMD 32bit, only ubuntu no windows at all. FYI, one other chronic issue that chrome goes on audio strike from time to time. Still no CD in drive. Any help appreciated. Isnt there some log file I cant u
[06:42] <SwimmingRat> nderstand myself?
[06:42] <scribawf> maginot: boot option?  not to sure on that
[06:42] <johntramp> hey for the last few years i have been using the picard tagger. is there anything better to be using these days?
[06:42] <ar0n> im trying to get it to there lol
[06:42] <ar0n> there was no/usr/mozilla
[06:42] <ftab> BluShift, if you like windows then there must be a reason for it, and we would rather prefer you to use windows, but yes be aware of all those trojans and viruses
[06:42] <timboy> SwimmingRat, /var/log/messages or /var/log/syslog
[06:42] <ftab> :)
[06:42] <maginot> scribawf, when you start your computer you have grub boot loader, which let you boot linux directly or choose between you OS
[06:42] <SwimmingRat> limboy and then there is some way to show the file to you?
[06:43] <SwimmingRat> pasteinbin ??
[06:43] <maginot> ar0n, /usr/lib/mozilla
[06:43] <maginot> !pastebin
[06:43] <scribawf> maginot:  Linux directly with a memtest and recovery option that's about it
[06:43] <maginot> SwedeMike, ^
[06:43] <SwimmingRat> When it froze my computer lost the help when I freeze directory
[06:43] <maginot> SwedeMike, ops, wrong nick. =)
[06:44] <rocket16> Hello all, is there a GNOME version of KDE applications like KPlot and KStars?
[06:44] <timboy> rocket16, no
[06:44] <timboy> timboy, just use those
[06:44] <rocket16> timboy: Sorry to hear that. They run well, but with less speed
[06:45] <timboy> rocket16, agreed i'm not a fan of kde...
[06:45] <BluShift> SwimmingRat: I get the feeling it might be Flash. Does this happen with other Flash sites as well>
[06:45] <BluShift> ?
[06:45] <rocket16> timboy: Still, It is nice. Most KDE applications are better, like Kig is better than Dr. Geo
[06:45] <rocket16> timboy: But to me, GNOME is better, :)
[06:45] <maginot> scribawf, take a look here, after understanding it try and any problem come ask for help again: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FrameBuffer :)
[06:46] <BluShift> What's your favorite text editor?
[06:46] <darolu> rocket16, you can try stellarium (similar to kstars)
[06:46] <rocket16> Mine is Kate
[06:46] <knoppies> BluShift, gedit.
[06:46] <scribawf> maginot:  OK on my way will try most anything at this point, TU
[06:46] <maginot> rocket16, you can use kde applications inside gnome, just need kde libs...
[06:46] <BluShift> Heh heh.
[06:46] <rocket16> darolu: Already using that, :)
[06:46] <rocket16> maginot: I am doing it already, but they are a bit slower
[06:46] <SuspectZero> how can i install grub4dos through ubuntu?
[06:47] <darolu> rocket16, I'm not sure what Kplot does, maybe if you tell me what you do with it I can suggest an alternative in gnome
[06:47] <maginot> rocket16, slow computer?
[06:47] <SwimmingRat> limboy blushift pastebinit /var/log/syslog doesnt work -I need helpon it. ---and--- Youtube works fine. Javascript works but not on igoogle page. That is all. (how do I unignore you blushift?
[06:47] <rocket16> maginot: Yeah, older, 1 GB RAM
[06:47] <knoppies> SwimmingRat, cant you do /ignore <nick>
[06:48] <rocket16> darolu: KmPlot is a function-plotter, it plots mathematical functions in Cartesian-System
[06:48] <knoppies> oh, unignore, im not sure. What irc are you using?
[06:48] <SwimmingRat> ok did the unignore. what works here did not work on another server so NP here
[06:48] <BluShift> knoppies: **IRC Client.
[06:48] <knoppies> thank you BluShift
[06:48] <SwimmingRat> <-- xchat
[06:48] <rocket16> Xchat is nice, :)
[06:48] <knoppies> SwimmingRat, same, did you just /unignore?
[06:48] <SwimmingRat> I had hoe to do pastebin in missing files
[06:48] <BluShift> SwimmingRat: Is this only happening with the Jon Stewert page?
[06:49] <SwimmingRat> knoppies, I did unignore nick and it worked
[06:49] <scribawf> maginot:  startx was the answer for me now need to edit the loader line
[06:49] <rocket16> darolu: I tried Lybniz, it is nice. But still,wanted something better, :)
[06:49] <maginot> scribawf, you know that using startx isn't recommended right? The better way is with a session manager like gdm, kdm or xdm
[06:50] <zamba> 'startx' is so the 90s
[06:50] <SwimmingRat> BluShift, so far only on that page. It was happening a LOT a week or so ago. I asked in here. did some pastebins. was told it was my CD (which was just sitting there unused) so I removed the disk and it's been fine till today.
[06:50] <scribawf> maginot:  OK so lets see which one I really go with gdm, kdm or xdm?
[06:50] <darolu> rocket16, does this look useful? http://www.gnuplot.info/
[06:50]  * maginot rocket16 says older with 1gb of ram, which makes me remind the times where 128mb of ram was just too much ;)
[06:50] <sdfasdfasdfds> how to use  gnome-desktop-item-edit   to create submenu dir
[06:50] <ar0n> this is driving me nuts
[06:51] <ar0n> it will not let me move this file
[06:51] <maginot> scribawf, gnome, kde or remote sessions ?
[06:51] <scribawf> maginot:  gnome
[06:51] <BluShift> ar0n: What?
[06:51] <maginot> scribawf, you can use any, but usually for gnome gdm is more common
[06:51] <rocket16> darolu: Gnuplot is very useful, I try it in combination with Octave and wxMaxima. But it is not any cartesian system
[06:51] <knoppies> can I just install ubuntu onto a USB flash drive the same way I would any other HDD?
[06:51] <scribawf> maginot: yup just saw that as I typed it out Duh
[06:51] <rocket16> darolu: Thank you still, for your effort, :)
[06:51] <maginot> ar0n, you must be as root, please, just use the installer from adobe site: www.adobe.com/getflashplayer
[06:51] <BluShift> ar0n: What issue are you having?
[06:52] <nomad77> ar0n: use sudo
[06:52] <ar0n> k
[06:52] <scribawf> maginot:  is that from terminal command line?
[06:52] <rocket16> maginot:  I agree, :) But nowadays we have 4GB RAM as well in new PC Systems
[06:52] <BluShift> ar0n: Or chmod 666
[06:52] <ar0n> cannot stat is the error
[06:52] <sdfasdfasdfds> how to use  gnome-desktop-item-edit   to create submenu dir
[06:52] <maginot> scribawf, you just want to start a X sessions exporadic ? (don't know if is this the word)
[06:53] <BluShift> ar0n: Just chmod 766 the directory and file.
[06:53] <maginot> ar0n,  don't listen to BluShift
[06:53] <BluShift> ar0n: Don't listen to maginot.
[06:53] <ar0n> i know for fact im entering the directorys properly
[06:53] <dendey> when setup s/w like pidgin ,  twitter clients is it assured that passwords authentication etc etc is very safe???
[06:53] <scribawf> maginot:  yea think thats what I'm trying to do but at least know my video drivers are working OK
[06:53] <maginot> ar0n, do you have that plugin file I asked you? Where is it?
[06:53] <dendey> coz u are giving away account details
[06:53] <ar0n> yes i have it
[06:53] <rocket16> For Octave, QtOctave is an excellent GUI, but yago in GNOME is unstable
[06:54] <darolu> rocket16, are you telling gnuplot supports 3D singularities scripts but no cartesian cordenates?
[06:54] <ar0n> its on my /home/user/desktop
[06:54] <furuno> hello, I'm having the "Cannot start session without errors, please check errors given in your PHP and/or webserver log file and configure your PHP installation properly." on a ubuntu server 9.10. I've checked where the sesion is stored(/var/php) and confirmed that it's accessable. I check the log, but can't find any phpmyadmin related error on my apache log. I'm installing phpmyadmin with apt-get. However, other webapps still can u
[06:54] <BluShift> ar0n: Actually, better to just chmod 998 to be safe.
[06:54] <maginot> BluShift, this delay was you searching on google for it?
[06:54] <rocket16> darolu: No, it does not. Because there is no Coordinate system,
[06:54] <furuno> oh, it's a phpMyAdmin error displayed right after I've submitted the phpmyadmin login form
[06:55] <rocket16> darolu: GNUPLOT is excelleent, but it is a graph-plotter, not a function-plotter
[06:55] <BluShift> furuno: Don't use XAMPP. Just install Apache and PHP from scratch. XAMPP tries to make things easier, but ends up making them more difficult.
[06:55] <BluShift> maginot: Come again?
[06:55] <rocket16> I wish there had been a System with the advantages of GNOME and KDE together, :)
[06:55] <furuno> yes I'm using ubuntu server 9.10 and installed it using tasksel (on os installation)
[06:55] <simoncpu> rocket16: it's called fluxbox
[06:55] <simoncpu> hehehe
[06:55] <maginot> BluShift, what?
[06:55] <BluShift> rocket16: Such as?
[06:56] <BluShift> maginot: I didn't understand what you meant.
[06:56] <BluShift> simoncpu: Har har.
[06:56] <knoppies> BluShift, maginot implied that you are searching for answers on google and then posting them here.
[06:56] <ar0n> cp /home/user/desktop/file.so /usr/lib/mozilla/plugin/
[06:56] <simoncpu> BluShift: i am a real 3771t3 hax00rs because i can has fluxbox
[06:56] <rocket16> simoncpu: Ha ha, nice. but it lacks the good looks of GNOME and KDE both, :)
[06:57] <rocket16> BluShift: Such as what?
[06:57] <jussi01> furuno: ypu may find better service in #ubuntu-server
[06:57] <BluShift> knoppies: I know. I'm fully aware. I'm not sure why he'd think someone who's used Linux for almost 2 years wouldn't know what chmod is and how it works.
[06:57] <furuno> jussi01: oh i see, wrong channel then... thanks!
[06:57] <jussi01> ar0n: you are trying to install flash?
[06:58] <illovae> hi o/
[06:58] <ar0n> yes
[06:58] <jussi01> ar0n: is there a reason you are not using the repositories?
[06:58] <maginot> BluShift, 2 years ahn...
[06:58] <ar0n> yes it didnt work
[06:58] <BluShift> maginot: But thanks for pretending like you know what you're talking about.
[06:58] <jussi01> ar0n: how so?
[06:59] <jussi01> BluShift: please keep on topic (ubuntu support).
[06:59] <BluShift> maginot: "ahn"?
[06:59] <ar0n> it says i have them, and its not working
[06:59] <jussi01> ar0n: have you restarted your browser since installing?
[06:59] <maginot> ar0n, http://maginot.pastebin.com/QWzCWBT3 try this in the terminal, see if works
[07:00] <ar0n> flashplug installer, flashplugin-non free are both therre
[07:00] <ar0n> thanks
[07:00] <BluShift> Do you guys know what Ubuntu means?
[07:00] <maginot> ar0n, and its a good idea just keep the adobe plugins, works better.
[07:00] <maginot> BluShift, Union
[07:00] <BluShift> maginot: It means "I can't configure Debian."
[07:01] <jussi01> BluShift: again, please keep on topic.
[07:01] <BluShift> jussi01: How is that not on topic?
[07:01] <maginot> BluShift, You cant? so where you are lost?
[07:01] <maginot> ;)
[07:01] <jussi01> BluShift: this is a very busy support channel, strictly for support. Jokes are not part of support.
[07:02] <rocket16> Huh, the Ubuntu-offtopic is owned by a Joker named AtomicSpark, always giving insults to me and other good people, :(
[07:02] <Madpilot> BluShift, this is a support channel; #ubuntu-offtopic for random jokes, especially ones that're almost as old as the whole project, OK?
[07:02]  * maginot starts thinking, from where these guys come from
[07:02] <BluShift> jussi01: NO FUN ALLOWED.
[07:02] <furuno> it's quiet it #ubuntu-server :/
[07:02] <jussi01> rocket16: -> #ubuntu-ops
[07:02] <rocket16> jussi01: Thanks,
[07:02] <simoncpu> BluShift: try apt-get moo
[07:02] <BluShift> jussi01: Can I be an op?
[07:03] <darolu> rocket16, http://linux.softpedia.com/get/Science-and-Engineering/Electronic-Design-Automation-EDA-/Easy-Funktion-1937.shtml ??
[07:03] <juanjo> hola
[07:03] <BluShift> simoncpu: NO WAI. It's probably crash my computer and set it on fire or something.
[07:03] <rocket16> darolus: Oh, Thanks
[07:03] <darolu> hola juanjo escribe /join #ubuntu-es para entrar al canal en español.
[07:03] <ar0n> ok done maginot
[07:03] <maginot> ar0n, no error?
[07:03] <simoncpu> BluShift: hola, habla en espanol?
[07:04] <ar0n> nope
[07:04] <ar0n> it moved it
[07:04] <BluShift> simoncpu: I typed in "try apt-get moo" and it said "try: command not found". Is my compooter busted?
[07:04] <maginot> actually it copied it
[07:04] <simoncpu> BluShift: yes
[07:04] <BluShift> simoncpu: Uno cervesa pour favour?
[07:04] <ar0n> wirjs'
[07:04] <ar0n> workin thanks bud
[07:04] <maginot> ar0n, now close and reopen the browser (your other plugin may be a problem, removing it its better)
[07:04] <maginot> ar0n, worked now ?
[07:04] <ar0n> yep
[07:05] <maginot> okay then
[07:05] <djstava_> d
[07:05] <simoncpu> BluShift: comamos la islas bonita
[07:06] <BluShift> simoncpu: Uno cervesa?
[07:06] <ardchoille> !english | simoncpu BluShift
[07:06] <darolu> BluShift, at least say it right....
[07:06] <BluShift> ardchoille: We're not actually speaking an Spanish. Haha.
[07:07] <BluShift> darolu: I don't speak Spanish. Haha.
[07:07] <Madpilot> BluShift, seriously, random chatter in -offtopic
[07:08] <BluShift> Madpilot: Do you get paid to op?
[07:08] <GreenT> BlueShift: it's "una"... and since ubuntu sucks that much, what the hell are you doing here?
[07:08] <BluShift> GreenT: I'm just having a bit of a troll, relax.
[07:09] <nomad77>  /ban
[07:09] <simoncpu> hahaha... nice
[07:10] <BluShift> GreenT: I actually loved Ubuntu when I was new to Linux. In fact, I might switch back from Fedora because of the better support for strange hardware.
[07:10] <simoncpu> Fedora doesn't support strange hardware
[07:10] <GreenT> BluShift: and yeah, all ops in here get paid loads of money... and they get $100 for each troll they show the way out of here ;)
[07:10] <Madpilot> BluShift, any more offtopic trollishness will earn a 48hr ban. No more warnings. Clear?
[07:10] <simoncpu> it doesn't even run on a toaster
[07:11] <Madpilot> simoncpu, what about a badger?
[07:11] <GreenT> Ubuntu Toaster Edition... would like to see that ;)
[07:11] <BluShift> Madpilot: I'm actually getting a bit of strange warm lump in my hand, so I think it's about time I parted anyways. Sorry for the troll, I actually do like ubuntu and #ubuntu. It's just one of my vices :)
[07:11] <casemods> what is the purpose of backtrack?
[07:12] <simoncpu> to track back
[07:12] <BluShift> GreenT: Sweet deal. When can I start?
[07:12] <ardchoille> Madpilot: Thank you
[07:12]  * darolu bows to Madpilot
[07:13] <furuno> Is there's anyway to do remote desktop connection (or something like that) to a non-gui ubuntu box? (preferably from my windows 7 box)
[07:13] <abhinav> furuno: ssh ?
[07:14] <casemods> remote desktop
[07:14] <darolu> furuno, openssh may work, you need to install cgywin to use it
[07:14] <GreenT> furuno: VNC ?
[07:14] <phpmonk> furuno, ssh
[07:14] <darolu> cygwin*
[07:15] <abhinav> darolu, furuno : putty supports ssh
[07:15] <darolu> furuno, read check this links http://www.cygwin.com/ & http://www.noah.org/ssh/cygwin-sshd.html
[07:15] <furuno> abhinav: oh yeah, why I forget about putty :P
[07:17] <darolu> hey abhinav thanks, I didn't know about putty; I got your memo btw, I'm glad you got that 64-bit ubuntu working.
[07:22] <Tru7h> Trying to install Ubuntu 9.10 on a Win7 box; installing Karmic doesn't display Win7 in the grub, and running fixmbr from Win7 CD breaks ubuntu. Any help?
[07:23] <darolu> Tru7h, after installing 9.10 did you try running "sudo update-grub"?
[07:23] <Tru7h> darolu: Yes, I did. When I ran that command it caused grub to automatically boot ubuntu.
[07:24] <Tru7h> darolu: I can't get dual boot to work properly, but I don't want to have to use Wubi.
[07:25] <darolu> Tru7h, try following this: http://erickoo.wordpress.com/2009/06/14/how-to-add-vista-partition-to-grub-2-ubuntu-9-10-karmic-koala/
[07:26] <SwimmingRat> question: is there any way to access the files you saved from ubuntu-wubi if you dont boot from that wubi?
[07:26] <outer_space1> does a mac compact imac keyboard work in ubuntu?
[07:26] <Tru7h> darolu: Thanks, I'll try those instructions and post the results.
[07:27] <rocket16> outer_space1: I think it will
[07:27] <outer_space1> good thing, i just payed $65 to order one
[07:27] <rocket16> outer_space1: First make a test-drive from Live-Ubuntu,
[07:27] <rocket16> outer_space1: Then you can see it, :)
[07:27] <outer_space1> just the keyboard lol
[07:27] <outer_space1> i dont even have a computer yet im just ordering pieces
[07:28] <outer_space1> we need keyboards with the ubuntu key
[07:29] <Madpilot> outer_space1, keyboards with a Tux key exist, I think I've seen Ubuntu kbs too
[07:29] <rocket16> outer_space1: Ubuntu can work with all Keyboards, I suppose
[07:29] <outer_space1> ive been searching for hours for a nice non-plastic compact keyboard
[07:29] <outer_space1> how come only apple delivers this?
[07:29] <outer_space1> they are monopolizing it
[07:30] <maginot> outer_space1, what architeture
[07:30] <zus> most of my mdeia buttons dont work i havvve a compaq keyboard
[07:30] <outer_space1> usb keyboard, no keypad, made of metal mostly
[07:30] <maginot> zus, user xmodmap
[07:31] <maginot> *use
[07:31] <outer_space1> aluminum but plastic keys i think
[07:31] <almoxarife> SwimmingRat: read something about that, you have to make windows read a ext4 fs first
[07:31] <darolu> IIRC System76 keyboards come with Ubuntu key
[07:31] <zus> how do i find it in kubuntu?
[07:31] <outer_space1> im too used to laptop keyboards to ever go back to those crazy pc designs with all that space between keys, and you have to press SO FAR DOWN!
[07:32] <outer_space1> it just makes my fingers tired
[07:32] <Madpilot> outer_space1, I'm the opposite, can't get used to cramped laptops with no key movement :)
[07:32] <outer_space1> i used to think that, but once you do, you type faster with less effort
[07:33] <darolu> outer_space1, good thing you never used an old mechanic typewritter machine; like Madpilot I also need to 'feel feedback' when typing
[07:33] <outer_space1> yeah my first pc had that, and i kept it for years with a din-ps2 converter
[07:34] <Vigo> Is there a VRI package, Voice Recognition Input?
[07:34] <outer_space1> if it didnt break it would have a din-ps2-usb adapter
[07:34] <meatbun> is facebook down? i can't login
[07:35] <Tru7h> darolu: When I run sudo update-grub I get "boot: No such file or directory". Is this OK?
[07:35] <mtx_init> I cant get my cam to work with tinychat, but it works fine with chatrt and cheese, any ideas?  I set the flash permissions and I am in the video group
[07:35] <darolu> Tru7h, no, it means something is wrong
[07:35] <zus> i found it nvm
[07:35] <rocket16> outer_space1: Are you from SAN ANTONIO?
[07:35] <MarkProffitt> Ubuntu destroyed my new laptop
[07:36] <Tru7h> darolu: I've followed the instructions to the letter, what should I try next?
[07:36] <outer_space1> no but my IP is
[07:36] <MarkProffitt> Now I have a $800 brick
[07:36] <HPTwhite> get outta here mark
[07:36] <outer_space1> im from florida!
[07:36] <mtx_init> MarkProffitt: what happened
[07:36] <darolu> Tru7h, most likely means the Windows 7 file you made has an error in the "set root" line; did you execute "sudo fdisk -l"? to check where windows is installed?
[07:36] <Vigo> Grub how to: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[07:37] <HPTwhite> i can already tell mark is here on a mission; to destroy the Ubuntu name
[07:37] <Madpilot> HPTwhite, be polite.
[07:37] <rocket16> shishirdwivedi20: Are you from Lucknow?
[07:37] <HPTwhite> just a guess though
[07:37] <HPTwhite> dont mind me
[07:37] <mtx_init> I cant get my cam to work with tinychat, but it works fine with chatrt and cheese, any ideas?  I set the flash permissions and I am in the video group
[07:37] <MarkProffitt> I just got a new HP laptop with Windows 7.  I installed Ubuntu in a partitiion but it destoyed the partition table and now I can't boot anything and can't recover Windows either.
[07:37] <rocket16> HPTwhite: Why so? Ubuntu is great, and indestructible
[07:37] <outer_space1> lol sounds like a job for GEEKSQUAD
[07:38] <shishirdwivedi20> hello i need help
[07:38] <mtx_init> MarkProffitt: ok so you need to use the recovery disks which came with your laptop
[07:38] <Tru7h> darolu: Windows is in sda2 for me, I assumed this meant I should set my root to (hd0,2); was I mistaken?
[07:38] <rocket16> Shishirdwivedi29: From Lucknow?
[07:38] <HPTwhite> i am Madpilot
[07:38] <rocket16> Shishirdwivedi20: From Lucknow?
[07:38] <MarkProffitt> mtx_init: I am trying and it doesn't work.  The computer is a brick
[07:38] <shishirdwivedi20> no
[07:38] <shishirdwivedi20> why rocket16?
[07:38] <HPTwhite> im just saying a starting statement like that isnt too friendly
[07:38] <rocket16> Shishirdwivedi20: Just a guess though, I am an Indian too
[07:39] <HPTwhite> sorry for being so direct
[07:39] <mtx_init> MarkProffitt: make sure you are able to boot from a CD, try to press F11 or F12 right away and select CD/DVD drive
[07:39] <darolu> Tru7h, according to that link, you are correct; although I'm not very sure if sda2 = hd0,2 and not hd0,1 as it used to be; you may want to try changing hd0,2 to hd0,1
[07:39] <rocket16> Shishirdwivedi20: So, what is the problem?
[07:39] <shishirdwivedi20> ohh dats great rocket16
[07:39] <shishirdwivedi20> ok
[07:39] <Madpilot> rocket16, please keep the offtopic chat to a minimum on this channel, OK?
[07:39] <shishirdwivedi20> i forgot my user name and password of ubuntu
[07:39] <MarkProffitt> HPTwhite, I'm not feeling very friendly.  THis piece of shit destroyed my new laptop.
[07:39] <HPTwhite> i dont understand it completely myself, but i wouldnt come into a support room for it with a statement like that
[07:39] <rocket16> Madpilot: I am just talking to him about his problem,
[07:39] <shishirdwivedi20> so how can i access my operationg system
[07:40] <outer_space1> reformat your hd lol its not ubuntus fault
[07:40] <rocket16> Shishirdwivedi20: Access Ubuntu?
[07:40] <Tru7h> darolu: Trying (hd0,1) produces the same error.
[07:40] <shishirdwivedi20> yeah
[07:40] <rocket16> Shishirdwivedi20: Why? Using Login screen isn't enough?
[07:40] <shishirdwivedi20> ubuntu give any guest login facility?
[07:40] <mtx_init> MarkProffitt: your laptop is fine.
[07:40] <mtx_init> I cant get my cam to work with tinychat, but it works fine with chatrt and cheese, any ideas?  I set the flash permissions and I am in the video group
[07:40] <rocket16> Shishirdwivedi20: Oh! Forgot your Password?
[07:40] <outer_space1> how can you figure out IRC if you cant even reinstall windows?
[07:40] <shishirdwivedi20> yeah
[07:40] <Madpilot> MarkProffitt, "destroyed my new laptop" is pretty vague. Barring smoke, fire & explosion, I'm guessing an install went badly?
[07:40] <Vigo> shishirdwivedi20: Here>https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword
[07:41] <shishirdwivedi20> ok vigo
[07:41] <darolu> Tru7h, when you do "sudo update-grub" does it get to the Windows 7 part, or prints the boot error for a Linux entry?
[07:41] <rocket16> Shishirdwivedi20: O, I am opening a new dialogue Window, to help you
[07:41] <HPTwhite> MarkProffitt: just a suggestion; if you're coming into a support channel please be more direct with your issue rather than making such a horrible opening remark; won't get many responses like that. but that's just my personal opinion; i don't speak for everyone when i say that
[07:41]  * maginot nothing like a coffee at 4:40am 
[07:42] <Tru7h> darolu: It says "Adding Windows" but after the memtest image thing it says "ls: cannot access /var/lib/os-prober/mount/Boot" and then "boot: No such file or directory"
[07:43] <MarkProffitt> I can't get it to boot from CD
[07:43] <maginot> MarkProffitt, did you changed the bios to be able to boot your cd?
[07:43] <darolu> Tru7h, oh so it is not loading the os-prober; uhmmm gimme a sec
[07:43] <Madpilot> MarkProffitt, have you checked your BIOS settings? Boot order might need to be adjusted.
[07:43] <HPTwhite> what message do you get mark? what kind of system do you have? do you have your BIOS set to boot from CD?
[07:44]  * maginot 3 equal answer maybe thats the real answer ? ;)
[07:44] <Vigo> shishirdwivedi20: There are a few other ways, that one is the basic from Ubuntu , the forums have a few tips on that also, be careful in that area as you are /root and a backup is always suggested.
[07:44] <MarkProffitt> I don't have any system now
[07:44] <ori> Help. I installed counter strike but it won't run. any tips?
[07:44] <Tru7h> darolu: I've tried running apt-get install os-prober but it's already installed.
[07:44] <HPTwhite> Mark: Ubuntu 9.10 will boot from any system bootable by cdrom
[07:44] <maginot> MarkProffitt, do you know what BIOS is?
[07:44] <HPTwhite> with the minimum sys requirements of course
[07:45] <Madpilot> MarkProffitt, BIOS is not your system. It's the really base level stuff that pops up when you first turn the machine on
[07:45] <MarkProffitt> When it boot I get a message to choose Window or Ubuntu,  If I choose Ubunut it crashes.  If I chose Windows the retore comes up and then fails.
[07:45] <Madpilot> BIOS doesn't care if there's an OS or not
[07:45] <darolu> Tru7h, yes, update-grub is supposed to load/run the /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober but seems like it's not doing it
[07:45] <maginot> MarkProffitt, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BIOS
[07:45] <MarkProffitt> Ther is no way to get to the BIOS
[07:45] <Tru7h> darolu: Do you know what else I could try?
[07:45] <outer_space1> markproffitt boot from your windows cd
[07:46] <maginot> MarkProffitt, did you readed what I pointed you ?
[07:46] <MarkProffitt> Every key I press on statrt up doesn't work
[07:46] <MarkProffitt> It won't boot
[07:46] <darolu> Tru7h, try "sudo os-prober" to see if it does find your Windows 7
[07:46] <maginot> MarkProffitt, again, read: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BIOS
[07:47] <Tru7h> darolu: "sudo os-prober" returns "ls: cannot access /var/lib/os-prober/mount/Boot" and "boot: no such file or directory".
[07:47] <maginot> MarkProffitt, this will help too I think: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/ss/bootorderchange.htm
[07:47] <MarkProffitt> maginot I know what BIOS is.  There is no way to get this computer to boot
[07:47] <Vigo> MarkProffit: Hold Delete key, but look at Computer Hope .com for some very helpful data on that, could be a different key. or key set.
[07:47] <Madpilot> MarkProffitt, if you're getting to GRUB's choose-your-OS screen, it is booting past BIOS, at least
[07:48] <maginot> MarkProffitt, If you know what a bios is you wouldn't making some questions you did. Change in the bios the boot order to the CD.
[07:48] <Madpilot> must go, stuff to do before sleep. Later, all.
[07:48] <MarkProffitt> There is no way to get to the BIOS,  and it can't get crashing no matter which OS I choose
[07:48] <maginot> MarkProffitt, but why are you trying to boot the CD, your problem isn't with your password?
[07:49] <MarkProffitt> I can't get this to boot to anything now
[07:49] <maginot> MarkProffitt, I gave up, I'm talking to a door. =/
[07:49] <MarkProffitt> not from HD,  it won't boot to CD, I can't get into BIOS ot change the boot order
[07:49] <cdoublejj> so i partitioned my drive 4 ways 1st part. is 98se 2 and 3 are storage and 5 witch consist ofa swap and then a ext3
[07:49] <cdoublejj> do i want my mount point to be /boot or just /
[07:49] <MarkProffitt> I would love to have some meaninglyful suggestion
[07:49] <HPTwhite> MarkProffitt: you cant get to the BIOS?
[07:49] <MarkProffitt> NO
[07:50] <MarkProffitt> I have said that 4 times now
[07:50] <HPTwhite> well then get that fixed and come back when youre done
[07:50] <MarkProffitt> HOW ???????
[07:50] <maginot> MarkProffitt, you have to go to a support place where someone could fix your hardware, this have nothingto do with ubuntu or even linux.
[07:50] <Vigo> MarkProffitt: > http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000976.htm That may help.
[07:50] <HPTwhite> (not being rude, but if you cant change BIOS boot order there's not much help we can provide
[07:51] <MarkProffitt> The computer was perfect right from the store ithen I tried to install Ubuntu and the thing is now a brick
[07:51] <darolu> Tru7h, maybe reinstalling os-prober will do it; "sudo apt-get remove --purge os-prober" and then "sudo apt-get install os-prober"
[07:51] <maginot> HPTwhite, its liking talk to a door. Really, I gave up.
[07:52] <maginot> *like
[07:52] <cdoublejj> hmm i just found out "/" means root
[07:52] <maginot> cdoublejj, yep, its the deeper place of you filesystem ;)
[07:52] <cdoublejj> and dangerous if you mes with it
[07:53] <maginot> very ;X
[07:53] <HPTwhite> maginot: I know: but I was being blamed for being rude and I was just trying to stand my ground; I am far from rude. I just want to help. that was my whole point
[07:53] <MarkProffitt> You are rude
[07:53] <Tru7h> darolu: Upon reinstalling, I get "Package os-prober is not available, but is referred to by another package... E: Package os-prober has no installation candidate" (with some messages as the ...)
[07:53] <MarkProffitt> I am telling you exactly what is happening. I have read everything you have said
[07:53] <MarkProffitt> its not helping
[07:54] <HPTwhite> MarkProffitt you are out of line. if i had the right permisssions you would be banned/kicked right about now
[07:54] <bullgard> Synaptic: "Liferea is a simple FeedReader clone for GNOME." What clones here what?
[07:54] <rocket16> MarkProffitt, HPTProffitt: No problem friends, just easy, :)
[07:54] <HPTwhite> all we're doing is trying to help
[07:54] <maginot> MarkProffitt, you are ignoring the basic, blaming the system for your hardware problem (if there is any) and want us to make some magic for you. Please go learn the basics.
[07:54] <MarkProffitt> THEN HELP!!!!
[07:54] <darolu> Tru7h, "sudo apt-get install os-prober-udeb"
[07:54] <MarkProffitt> Its not a fucking hardware problem
[07:54] <MarkProffitt> It was perfect before Ubunutu trashed the computert
[07:54] <rocket16> Easy all, no enmity here.
[07:54] <MarkProffitt> New out of the box working perfectly
[07:55] <rocket16> MaskPoffitt: May I know the problem with your System?
[07:55] <HPTwhite> Mark you might want to go another route then
[07:55] <llutz> if you cannot enter BIOS, it IS a hardware problem and now stop trolling
[07:55] <maginot> MarkProffitt, its obivious that you dont know what you are talkin about, not even the basic about how a computer works
[07:55] <darolu> Tru7h, if it fails download and install: http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/os-prober
[07:55] <HPTwhite> here in this community we are supportive of eachother
[07:55] <rocket16> MarkProffitt: Friend, may I know the problem about your Computer System?
[07:55] <HPTwhite> if you cant respect you dont belong here regardless
[07:55] <MarkProffitt> Sure supportive, I have been insulted continuously
[07:55] <Vigo> !language | MarkProffit
[07:55] <maginot> MarkProffitt, so take to the warrant
[07:56] <MarkProffitt> I can't get this back to Windows and I can't get it to boot the Ubuntu disc
[07:56] <MarkProffitt> so its stuck a brick
[07:56] <rocket16> Easy all, MarkProffitt is new here, let us help him
[07:56] <rocket16> MarkProffitt: Please, let me know of your Problem,
[07:57] <MarkProffitt> Yes I am new HERE but not to computers.
[07:57] <HPTwhite> rocket we are trying to help, but Mark needs to be respectful
[07:57] <Lonia> MarkProffitt, could you describe precisely which steps you took to get into this mess?
[07:57] <maginot> MarkProffitt, go and learn about how a computer works, how a bios works and how its related to you operaton system and you will learn that you are ignoring what we are talking.
[07:57] <ori> Help. I installed counter strike 1.6 through wine but it won't run. any tips?
[07:57] <rocket16> HTPwhite: I understand, and I respect your attitude to help,
[07:58] <rocket16> MarkProffitt: Friend, can you please summarise your Problem? I did not get it, may be I can help
[07:58] <maginot> ori, wine help isn't on this channel.
[07:58] <llutz> ori: /j #winehq
[07:58] <knoppies> ori, Other than use windows for directX Im not sure. I think your going to have to find the #wine channel and hope they are active at the moment
[07:58] <maginot> llutz, what irc do you use?
[07:59] <MarkProffitt> I just got a brand new HP Pavilion dv7-3165dx with Windows 7 Home Premium.  The computer was perfect. I tired to install Ubunut in a partition.  It failed and trashed the partion table.  Now I can't boot to anything and can't recover and can't reinstall Ubunut either.
[07:59] <Tru7h> darolu: Apt-get package failed; used the link you mentioned, os-prober was installed but sudo update-grub still displays the same message: "boot: No such file or directory"
[07:59] <llutz> maginot: ?
[07:59] <knoppies> MarkProffitt, did it come with a windows7 install disc? Or a recovery partition?
[07:59] <maginot> llutz, /j doesn't work here lol ;P
[07:59] <rocket16> MArkProffitt: Oh, that is easy, just reinstall Grub, may I say how?
[07:59] <llutz> maginot: /join then
[07:59] <Tru7h> kProffitt> HOW ???????
[07:59] <Tru7h> *>* kProffitt> HOW ???????
[07:59] <maginot> MarkProffitt, Your partition table have nothing to do with your BIOS.
[08:00] <HPTwhite> wow /j doesnt work in what client? lol
[08:00] <MarkProffitt> No it did not come with a disc.  I made a restore disc before doing this.
[08:00] <Tru7h> *>* Apologies, client issue
[08:00] <rocket16> MarkProffitt: Do you have the Ubuntu Live CD?
[08:01] <mtx_init> I cant get my cam to work with tinychat, but it works fine with chatrt and cheese, any ideas?  I set the flash permissions and I am in the video group
[08:01] <maginot> HPTwhite, actually you're right, works here, the last time I tried was about 6 years ago (I'm sure it doesn't work that time) lol
[08:01] <MarkProffitt> I have the disc that is made from downloading
[08:01] <rocket16> MarkProffitt: Ok, that will do, :)
[08:01] <rocket16> MarkProffitt: Ok, now I am saying how to reinstall grub, it is easy
[08:01] <HPTwhite> loo maginot
[08:02] <knoppies> rocket16, im listening.
[08:02] <HPTwhite> lol* rather
[08:02] <rocket16> knoppoes: Ok, lol
[08:02] <Lonia> rocket16, It's posible that something crashed the ubuntu installation?
[08:03] <darolu> Tru7h, I just read that os-prober is not necessary, this may be risky but you can try it, "sudo aptitude purge os-prober" this will uninstall os-prober; then run "sudo update-grub" remember the 11_windows file you created? make usre it has the correct entry (hd0,2)
[08:03] <Lonia> rocket16, I mean , to the poit it made de HD useless
[08:04] <maginot> MarkProffitt, Do you want to reinstall your ubuntu? So just make your BIOS boot the CD and reinstall it. A partition table problem doesn't stop you from doing that.
[08:04] <knoppies> Lonia, technically anything is possible, but we are trying to look at a cup half full, and hoping that the partitions are still in tact.
[08:04] <rocket16> Lonia: MAy be, but in that case, a full reformat is required
[08:04] <maginot> Lonia, useless until a next try, not useless to send to the trash
[08:05] <knoppies> maginot, dont dump it in the trash, give it to me, I will make good use of it (at least some of it).
[08:05] <Lonia> rocket16, Ok, I got into something similar a few years ago, the live CD solved it, hope it does this time
[08:05] <Tru7h> darolu: sudo update-grub succeeded; rebooting now
[08:05] <rocket16> Lonia: Let us hope so, otherwise it will be hard
[08:05] <Lonia> maginot,Ok I get it
[08:05]  * maginot talking about making a good use I need a 3th disk =X
[08:05] <Lonia> rocket16, thanks for the reply
[08:06] <darolu> Tru7h, good luck
[08:06] <HPTwhite> i have an interesting question.....not to sound like a noob or anything....but is there a way to run linux like in a virtual world? like not making a seperate partition and not just booting from a cd, but like a program/window of it?
[08:06] <Tru7h> darolu: Grub now loads the OS selection list, but Windows 7 is not on the list.
[08:06] <Tru7h> darolu: I have Linux 2.6.31-14-generic and the same as recovery mode, plus memtest86
[08:07] <darolu> Tru7h, did you run "sudo update-grub" after editing your 11_windows file?
[08:07] <rocket16> Lonia: My pleasure, :)
[08:07] <HPTwhite> you can dual boot windows 7 and ubuntu....ive done it
[08:07] <jeanfi> HPTwhite, wubi?
[08:07] <HPTwhite> wubi?
[08:07] <knoppies> HPTwhite, yes, its called using a virtual machine, i recommend you look at suns virtualbox.
[08:07] <jeanfi> HPTwhite, http://wubi-installer.org/
[08:07] <Lonia> HPTwhite, t you mean like some of us use windows in Virtualbox?
[08:07] <gottto> HPTwhite: virtualbox will do it
[08:07] <rocket16> jeanfi: There is better solution available.
[08:07] <Tru7h> darolu: Yes, I did.
[08:07] <darolu> Tru7h, OK, reboot and Windows should be on your list
[08:08] <Vigo> !wubi
[08:08] <jeanfi> rocket16, probably I have no real experience I do the opposite, running windows in virtualbox in ubuntu:)
[08:08] <darolu> Tru7h, even if it is not displayed in the update-grub list (as it uses os-prober to generate that list)
[08:08] <maginot> Andre, I use VBox for many things like when need to do something on windows, but a good computer is recommended
[08:08] <Tru7h> darolu: Rebooting once more.
[08:08] <darolu> Tru7h, good luck
[08:08] <jeanfi> rocket16, but some friends are using wubi with sucess, what is the better tool?
[08:09] <rocket16> jeanfi: Wubi is nice, but slow
[08:09] <ayam_jago> maginot: /me use vbox too :d
[08:09]  * york105 dislikes wubi
[08:09] <HPTwhite> is that ubuntu or just a linux virtualbox?
[08:09] <Tru7h> darolu: Ubuntu skips the GRUB OS selector altogether again.
[08:10] <Guest43620> hi
[08:10] <ayam_jago> i use vbox on my ubuntu for fugates
[08:10] <ayam_jago> qeqeqeqe
[08:10] <Guest43620> bored
[08:11] <york105> HPTwhite, wubi will actually install Ubuntu and is not a virtual environment
[08:11] <HPTwhite> ok that was a dumb question....ummmmmm......what distro is that virtualbox
[08:11] <maginot> fugates?
[08:11] <Tru7h> darolu: I'm currently using (hd0,2) in my 11_Windows file, should I try (hd0,1)?
[08:11] <llutz> HPTwhite: its a virtualization-software, no distro
[08:11] <maginot> VirtualBox is a Virtual Machine, it emulates other computers inside it. Its like a JVM for OSs
[08:11] <darolu> Tru7h, windows 7 may be on the list, but it's set to be hidden (the list) you need to configure your /etc/default/grub file
[08:11] <ayam_jago> HPTwhite : /j #vbox
[08:11] <ayam_jago> :d
[08:11] <gottto> HPTwhite: it is an application that lets you run an os in another os
[08:12] <HPTwhite> thx gotto
[08:12] <gottto> denada
[08:12] <Tru7h> darolu: I'm in the file, what should I change?
[08:12] <jeanfi> rocket16, my understanding of wubi is that it is not a virtualization tool, it 'just' allow to have the root fs in a windows partition file, so just the i/o should have a performance impact I guess?
[08:12]  * york105 suggest using the grub-update command
[08:12] <darolu> Tru7h, comment the GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 line
[08:12] <darolu> Tru7h, with a # in front of it: #GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0
[08:13] <Tru7h> darolu: The line's been commented. Reboot?
[08:13] <HPTwhite> whats a good free partition tool so i can dual boot vista/ubuntu?
[08:13] <darolu> Tru7h, yeah
[08:13] <york105> HPTwhite, try partition logic
[08:13] <maginot> jeanfi, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wubi_(Ubuntu_installer)
[08:13] <york105> HPTwhite,  or gparted
[08:14] <HPTwhite> ahhh gparted
[08:14] <darolu> HPTwhite, most of us use the LiveCD to do it, under System - Admin; you'll find GParted
[08:14] <HPTwhite> i have that
[08:14] <HPTwhite> does it matter what version?
[08:14] <Tru7h> darolu: I still can't select OS, ubuntu loads up right away
[08:14] <york105> HPTwhite, no it doesn't unless you're wanting to do something fancy
[08:14] <llutz> Tru7h: pressing "shift" at boot doesn't bring up grub-menu for you?
[08:15] <Tru7h> llutz: I'll try that.
[08:15] <darolu> Tru7h, my bad, change the value of GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true to GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=false; then the line GRUB_TIMEOUT= sets the timer, in seconds i.e. GRUB_TIMEOUT=10
[08:15] <darkk^> After update udev at my initrd is broken - it does not even create /dev/sda* disks, /dev is almost empty.
[08:15] <Tru7h> llutz: No, shift does nothing.
[08:15] <Vigo> HPTwhite: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GParted
[08:16] <maginot> darkk^, thats not done on initrd
[08:16] <Tru7h> darolu: I'll do so.
[08:16] <cdoublejj> is it okay to use my windows partition and set it's mount point /windows?
[08:16]  * york105 personally uses partition logic
[08:16] <darkk^> maginot, ah, you're right, that's formally called initramfs.
[08:16] <cdoublejj> i used it to set the partition but, forgot to format them
[08:17] <ackt1c> hi
[08:17] <cdoublejj> now i have to tell ubuntu to boot from the last partition via partition manager
[08:17] <ackt1c> no you don't
[08:17] <cdoublejj> partition logic is quite nice
[08:17] <ackt1c> no its not
[08:18] <darkk^> maginot, anyway, that does not create any difference - my /dev is empty and initramfs script can't find root device (/proc/devices has proper devices, so kernel is ok)
[08:18] <york105> cdoublejj, yes, i've been using it for some time now, useful if you want to inflate your ntfs partition
[08:18] <llutz> ackt1c: do you have any ubuntu-support question or helpfull answers?
[08:18] <jamiewan_> can someone shed some light on this output when trying to access gparted... sudo gparted
[08:18] <jamiewan_> [sudo] password for jamie:
[08:18] <jamiewan_> Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 key
[08:18] <jamiewan_> (gpartedbin:8670): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0.0
[08:18] <ackt1c> questions yes answers no
[08:18] <FloodBot1> jamiewan_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:18] <Tru7h> darolu: Do you want me to uncomment the previously commented line (GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0)?
[08:18] <cdoublejj> well using fat32 cause i'm dual booting while trying to dual boot with 98
[08:18] <llutz> ackt1c: then ask but stop spamming
[08:18] <cdoublejj> i'm using 98 for games that don't emulate well
[08:19] <Zorge> lol FloodBot XD
[08:19] <york105> cdoublejj, you're not referring to windows 98 are you?
[08:19] <the_gamer> my perl can't find Apache::Registry i already installed libapache2-mod-perl2-dev and libapache2-mod-perl2 but to no avail. how to install this module under ubuntu?
[08:19] <llutz> jamiewan_: gksudo gparted
[08:19] <maginot> darkk^, your problem is with other partitions or is with your system partitions like / /usr /home /boot ...
[08:19] <darolu> Tru7h, if it is commented, yes; it is necessary
[08:19] <cdoublejj> yes i am, 98se
[08:19] <kalesian> cdoublejj: hi, should be able to mount a windows partition anywhere.. what do you plan on doing with it?
[08:19] <york105> cdoublejj, wow, i haven't seen windows 98 in a decade now :D
[08:19] <darolu> Tru7h, otherwise time will be 0
[08:20] <jamiewan_> llutz: na get a scrambled version of the last output
[08:20] <ayam_jago> the_gamer: go to System, Administration, Synaptic Package Manager
[08:20] <cdoublejj> i had wifi in 98 last time
[08:20] <cdoublejj> 98 is still in use
[08:20] <ackt1c> ubuntu = mounted filesystem network
[08:20] <darkk^> maginot, I'm quite confident that the issue is udev-related as I can mount everything by hands (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cryptsetup/+bug/450620/comments/18 for details)
[08:20]  * york105 finds cdoublejj using 98 impressive
[08:20] <Tru7h> darolu: I've uncommented the line and rebooted; the grub list is still skipped.
[08:20] <cdoublejj> check the msfn forums
[08:20] <cdoublejj> http://www.msfn.org/board/forum/8-windows-959898seme/
[08:20] <the_gamer> ayam_jago, i already installed libapache2-mod-perl2-dev and libapache2-mod-perl2 which should include that perlmodule... it can't be found...
[08:21] <cdoublejj> you can get xp compatibility for 98 as well as ntfs
[08:21] <kalesian> the_gamer: have you tried "cpan -i Apache::Registry"?
[08:21] <the_gamer> kalesian, yeah
[08:21] <york105> cool
[08:21] <cdoublejj> why not blood nor shadow warrior emulate worth poo on dosbox
[08:21] <Egyptian[web]> morning
[08:21] <the_gamer> otrs can't find it and won't run
[08:21] <Egyptian[web]> i was wondering what ppa stood for
[08:21] <ackt1c> sceen
[08:21] <ackt1c> screen
[08:21] <darolu> Tru7h, that's weird, did you run "sudo update-grub" after editting the grub file?
[08:21] <york105> morning Egyptian[web]
[08:22] <ackt1c> its all quicktime people
[08:22] <maginot> darkk^, looking at you bug post I only can assume that the problem is on your lvm partition
[08:22] <ackt1c> apple quicktime
[08:22] <ackt1c> from windows xp
[08:22] <llutz> !ops | ackt1c spamming troll
[08:22] <Tru7h> darolu: Not after the second time, Ive done so and am rebooting now.
[08:22] <the_gamer> kalesian, it aborts at: "  '/usr/bin/perl Makefile.PL INSTALLDIRS=site' returned status 2, won't make"
[08:22] <Tru7h> darolu: Running update-grub had no effect.
[08:22] <kalesian> the_gamer: did you append sudo in front of it?
[08:23] <the_gamer> kalesian, yes
[08:23] <Egyptian[web]> !ppa
[08:23] <maginot> darkk^, this isn't exaclty a bug. Do you know what you're doing when using LVM fs?
[08:23] <Egyptian[web]> hokay
[08:23] <Egyptian[web]> thanks u bot u
[08:23] <MarkProffitt> maginot, HPTwhite  I figured out how to get this laptop to boot to CD. This new HP laptop has a bizarre BIOS
[08:24] <maginot> MarkProffitt, =)
[08:24] <darkk^> maginot, yes. I set it up using usual text install, evreything was ok, then I installed all suggested updates - and voila, I have to rescue system from bare bash shell :-)
[08:24] <darolu> Tru7h, this is my grub file, I have menu, compare them: http://paste.ubuntu.com/401021/
[08:24] <darolu> Tru7h, remember to run "sudo update-grub" after changing the file
[08:24] <maginot> darkk^, Hmm did you updated the kernel too?
[08:25] <darkk^> maginot, yes, according to /var/log/apt/term.log my kernel was upgraded from 2.6.31.14.27 to 2.6.31.20.33
[08:25] <kalesian> the_gamer: no clue then..
[08:26] <Tru7h> darolu: Differences: My GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET is false, as you mentioned I should set; additionally, I am missing the "vga=792", there is nothing between my double quotes.
[08:27] <darolu> Tru7h, my bad; the documentation I read said "false - A counter will display"
[08:27] <Jim_Bean> Hey, I have a Aspire 4520, and according to lspci it has a Broadcom wireless chip... How do I get it to work?
[08:27] <Tru7h> darolu: Should I make it true?
[08:27] <maginot> darkk^, if your lvm partition was working fine, and it says okay there, them the problem is with your NTFS drive
[08:27] <MarkProffitt> You guys can do what ever you want but if you want to get converts to Linux I suggest treating people who are frustrated with respect and assume they might actually know what they are talking about.
[08:28] <darolu> Tru7h, the vga=792 is not important right now, it is used to set the Virtual Terminal resolution; make it true, yes (that's what I have and I do have a menu)
[08:28] <gottto> !bcm > Jim_Bean
[08:28] <Tru7h> darolu: Setting true, running update-grub and rebooting.
[08:28] <murlidhar> hi all is it possible that i can set autohinting for bold fonts to 'slight' and regular fonts to 'full'?
[08:28] <llutz> MarkProffitt: if you'd read here for a while, you'd know that most of the people actually doesn't know what they are talking about (even if they're sure to know)
[08:29] <MarkProffitt> llutz,  hahaha
[08:29] <Tru7h> darolu: I still have no menu.
[08:29] <darkk^> maginot, do you have any idea why initramfs may be interested in NTFS partition? :-)
[08:30] <Tru7h> darolu: What if I tried update-grub2?
[08:31] <darolu> Tru7h, that's very weird, the settings on the pastebin are the way I have it, and I do have a menu; sure try update-grub2; anyways, pressing ESC (on the grub loading string) displays the menu
[08:31] <Tru7h> darolu: I have the same settings as you. I've updated grub2 and am restarting, I'll try your ESC trick.
[08:32] <darolu> Tru7h, just to check; you do modify the /etc/default/grub file with sudo and you save the changes right?
[08:32] <Tru7h> darolu: Yes, of course.
[08:34] <Tru7h> darolu: ESC didn't work to me, I saw something about "General error mounting filesystem" before it went to the ubuntu login
[08:34] <maginot> darkk^, did you read my last 3 comments? My irc just droped here
[08:34] <exco> I want to report a bug but I'm not sure against which package
[08:35] <maginot> exco, so how do you know is a bug?
[08:35] <exco> maginot: ^^ *rofl*
[08:35] <Vigo> exco: Check the local logs?
[08:35] <darkk^> maginot, the last comment I see was about NTFS - I'm sure, it's not the reason. As you can see, I find out that udevadm script was broken (see comment #20), now I've just understood WHY it is broken and have some idea how to repair it :-)
[08:36] <Tru7h> darolu: Just to clarify, I've been editing /etc/default/grub under sudo.
[08:36] <exco> I think it's debian-installer - delete and use whole medium in partitioning screen doesn't show a swap partition will be generated but there is one generated
[08:36] <darolu> Tru7h, try holding down the SHIFT key while Grub boots, that should display the menu; the mounting error is odd, win7 still uses ntfs right?
[08:37] <exco> also there's a translation error (to German) ... but I can't find the corresponding string in launchpad/translate
[08:37] <darolu> Tru7h, yes, /etc/default/grub sets the options like displaying the menu, adding a background image, etc.
[08:37] <Tru7h> darolu: Yes, the Win7 partition was formatted with NTFS. I'll reboot while holding down shift.
[08:37] <Vigo> exco: What version?
[08:37] <exco> daily of karmic
[08:37] <exco> ,vig
[08:37] <exco> , Vigo
[08:38] <Tru7h> darolu: Holding shift has successfully displayed the menu, but Windows 7 is not on it.
[08:38] <syx> 操
[08:39] <darolu> Tru7h, :( OK these are my final ideas; modify both /etc/grub.d/11_windows and /etc/grub.d/40_custom files with: http://paste.ubuntu.com/401020/
[08:40] <Vigo> exco: You can de-select that, http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/jaunty/man1/dselect.1.html
[08:41] <TomV_415> Tru7h: You may also want to check out this option to build the menu: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Automatic%20Entries
[08:41] <bsdgroup> hi! is there possibility to setup irc server that can communicate with ldap, I want to setup irc server that will allow connection to server only if they has acc in ldap db...
[08:41] <exco> Vigo: so I should check with dselect on the usb stick what version of debian-installer it is using?
[08:42] <Vigo> exco: You can do that if you wish, yes, here is the karmic page: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/karmic/man1/dselect.1.html
[08:42] <TomV_415> Tru7h: Looks like you may have already gone down that road.. never mind .  good luck!
[08:44]  * maginot damn connection :X
[08:44] <jasonmchristos> hello is rsync ove ssh the best way to backup from my laptop to a computer at home?
[08:45] <bsdgroup> hi! is there possibility to setup irc server that can communicate with ldap, I want to setup irc server that will allow connection to server only if members have account in ldap db...
[08:45] <darolu> Tru7h, if this fails too all I can think of is installing "sudo apt-get install startupmanager" and hope the GUI fixes it (it's almost 3a.m. where I live and I can't think of anything else)
[08:45] <abhinav> !best | jasonmchristos
[08:45] <Tru7h> darolu: It worked! I now have "Windows 7" and "Microsoft Windows 7" in my list, which should I choose? (by the way, I still have to hold shift to bring up the menu)
[08:45] <ackt1c> cards anyone
[08:45] <Tru7h> TomV_415: Thank you, either way. :)
[08:45] <abhinav> jasonmchristos: rsync over ssh is good .. in addition you could try a package called unison, if you're looking for file sync
[08:46] <jasonmchristos> abhinav: i will look up unison
[08:46] <darolu> Tru7h, excellent! both options have the same configuration so any of them should work; I'd put my money on the Microsoft Windows 7 one as it is the one in 40_custom
[08:46] <york105> jasonmchristos, rsync is far more sophisticated than the plane jane ssh we use, have a look at rsync man for more info
[08:46] <Tru7h> darolu: That's understandable, I'm in the same time zone as you and I have a class at 9:30 so I'll be calling it a night soon. Will your last suggestion make it so I don't have to hold shift?
[08:46] <maginot> bsdgroup, I think you're in the wrong channel...
[08:47] <bsdgroup> why?
[08:47] <prodigel> Hi all. I've just installed karmic and updated it, and I have problems connecting to it using xdmcp. I get the login screen, I can fill my user/password, but after authentication all I see is the mouse cursor while the screen is black.
[08:47] <Tru7h> darolu: I chose "Microsoft Windows 7" and got "BOOTMGR is missing / Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart"
[08:47] <jasonmchristos> york105: i thought rsync was a seperate command and i would just use ssh for transport
[08:47] <abhinav> jasonmchristos: unison is geared more towards syncing multiple versions (and diff, etc) than backup - for backup rsync is good. and there may be some backup tools that use it (gui based)
[08:47] <ackt1c> damn
[08:47] <Vigo> jasonmchristos: That is kinda complicating things, one home box to another , back in time or many other back-up utilities are available, and there are many that are Network based for what you are asking.
[08:47] <ackt1c> these schemes themes and colors are fucking with me
[08:47] <darolu> Tru7h, my last suggestion does the exact same thing you did manually but you can give it a shot; it's really weird you don't have a menu after modifying the grub file with the settings I gave you
[08:48] <Tru7h> darolu: I agree, it is weird, I'm trying the "Windows 7" entry
[08:48] <maginot> bsdgroup, here is ubuntu support, your question is related to irc and Ldap
[08:48] <jasonmchristos> well i really like ssh so would it be as simple as connecting to my ssh server and issung an rsync command?
[08:48] <theadmin> Help required urgently, i installed OOo3.2 from OpenOffice.org, and CAN'T FIND IT
[08:48] <ranjan> which is the google chrome os channel??? or anyone who has built chrome os??
[08:48] <bsdgroup> is there channel that is suitable for my question?
[08:48] <Tru7h> darolu: "Windows 7" gives a different error, it reads "error: two argiments required / Press any key to continue..."
[08:48] <ackt1c> everyone got good seats to watch the game?
[08:48] <york105> jasonmchristos, that is correct, all ssh does is gives you an encrypted tunnel through which comms can take place, rsync remote update protocol does the dirty work of comparing files on remote servers and speeds up transfers if remote file already exists, also read incremental backups
[08:49] <Tru7h> darolu: I'm booting ubuntu and trying your last suggestion
[08:49] <darolu> Tru7h, uhmmm I have no idea what BOOTMGR error is as it is Windows-related
[08:49] <maginot> bsdgroup, maybe #ldap, or #irc... I don't know. try /list
[08:49] <gottto> theadmin: what was wrong with using the repos?
[08:49] <bsdgroup> thnx!
[08:49] <theadmin> gottto: Them having 3.1?
[08:49] <jasonmchristos> ok i think i will look into rsync more thanks guys
[08:49] <Tru7h> darolu: I could try fixing boot with the Win7 CD, but I'm pretty sure that will murder GRUB
[08:49] <ackt1c> how do i see my status screen
[08:49] <maginot> theadmin, executing oowriter don't opens oofficce?
[08:49] <gottto> theadmin: is it in /usr/bin?
[08:49] <darolu> Tru7h, OK you can delete the 11_windows file from /etc/grub.d/ then; the Microsoft Windows 7 option works fine; the bootmgr missing file is Windows issue
[08:49] <llutz> !ot > ackt1c
[08:50] <theadmin> gottto: No idea, that's what i'm wondering
[08:50] <Tru7h> darolu: Deleting the file now.
[08:50] <theadmin> maginot: Hm, let's try
[08:50] <theadmin> maginot: That opens Ubuntu's stupid 3.1
[08:50] <gottto> theadmin: it won't show on a menu if you didn't use the repo
[08:50] <gottto> s
[08:50] <darolu> Tru7h, yeah, I think so too; I googled it and the first results I got said you have to use the CD/DVD, but as you said, it will most likely kill GRUB
[08:50] <ackt1c> how do i switch to private message?
[08:50] <ackt1c> or the damn status screen
[08:51] <theadmin> gottto: I can make menu shortcuts myself, ok? I just need to know where the hell are the binaries
[08:51] <ackt1c> haha
[08:51] <york105> Tru7h, that is right, grub 'encapsulates' windows kernel so even if you want to boot windows you pass through grub, installing windows will kill the encapsulation grub has over the boot process
[08:51] <gottto> theadmin: try in a terminal   ls /usr/bin | grep ooo
[08:52] <theadmin> gottto: Hm, i have a feeling it'll go to /opt
[08:52] <Tru7h> darolu: Deleted the specified file, now "Windows 7" has disappeared from the GRUB menu but I still have "Microsoft Windows 7"; choosing it still displays the "BOOTMGR is missing" error.
[08:52] <maginot> theadmin, did you updated oo using apt-get?
[08:52] <Martiner> Hello people, I have a problem with snmpd, it wont start, anyone familiar with the snmpd? Could really use the help please
[08:52] <theadmin> gottto: Tada. It's there.
[08:52] <gottto> theadmin: :)
[08:52] <kelvinella> whats new with ubuntu?
[08:53] <ackt1c> tv
[08:53] <Tru7h> york105: I've found that I can fix Windows 7 boot with the Win7 CD, and I can fix GRUB with the Ubuntu CD, but I can't get both working at the same time, and obviously carrying both CDs around with me is not ideal
[08:53] <theadmin> gottto: Hm, wait, no. There are bunch of other files/folders/stuff but i can't find the bins :/
[08:54] <darolu> Tru7h, the BOOTMGR is a Windows 7-related error; I don't really know a way to fix it (may be hard to believe but I haven't used Windows 7 nor Vista at all); I suppose you can simply copy/paste a BOOTMGR file, maybe it is in your CD/DVD
[08:54] <darolu> without needing to use the recovery option from the DVD (when you boot with it)
[08:55] <gottto> theadmin: try in terminal   find -name / ooobase
[08:55] <york105> Tru7h, I am not aware of the background of you issue here but the general practice is to install Windows first and then install Ubuntu and let Grub recognise all existing operating systems, can do so manually by using grub-update command.
[08:55] <Tru7h> darolu: That's ideal; also, I'm impressed, I definitely use Ubuntu more than Windows but I still use Windows for taking notes in class (it has a good formula editor in Office 2007) and for gaming
[08:55] <theadmin> gottto: Uh, i think you got a wrong syntax. Do you mean "find / -name ooobase"?
[08:55] <gottto> theadmin: oops yep
[08:56] <gottto> theadmin: or search for soffice
[08:56] <Tru7h> york105: I agree, that should work, but I've tried reinstalling Ubuntu twice and both times it has failed to recognize Windows in both the installer (it says no operating systems were detected on my hard drive) and in the boot loader, even when I run grub-update
[08:56] <ShazbotMcMurder> Why should you use gksudo over sudo?
[08:56] <gottto> !gksudo
[08:57] <coz_> ShazbotMcMurder,  many here prefer to use gksudo for "graphical" apps
[08:57] <o__> helllllooooooooooo
[08:57] <maginot> Hi
[08:57] <york105> Tru7h, is Windows on the same disc as Ubuntu (although on a different logical partition)?
[08:57] <Tru7h> york105: Yes, this is a laptop and it has only one HDD.
[08:57] <darolu> Tru7h, oh yeah video games is probably the only thing I miss (sometimes). Did the startupmanager helped with the no grub-menu issue?
[08:57] <ShazbotMcMurder> coz_, does it really make a difference?
[08:58] <ShazbotMcMurder> or is it just that it looks a pretty?
[08:58] <Tru7h> darolu: I've been messing with options, sorry, what was the startupmanager command again?
[08:58] <york105> Tru7h, and if I may enquire, what does your partition table look like?
[08:58] <coz_> ShazbotMcMurder,  well there can on rare occasions be issues  because sudo can run an application with root pirvileges but use the user's configuration
[08:58] <theadmin> Found it. Thanks a LOT, gotto, had to make a crazy find syntax though: "find / -name soffice 2>/dev/null"
[08:58] <llutz> ShazbotMcMurder: it does
[08:58] <coz_> ShazbotMcMurder,  i think that is the main issue
[08:59] <gottto> ShazbotMcMurder: it sets the graphical environment up properly - See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why
[08:59] <darolu> Tru7h, "sudo apt-get install startupmanager" the manager is found under System-Admin
[08:59] <ShazbotMcMurder> gottto, okay thanks
[08:59] <theadmin> Now, how do i remove ooO 3.1?
[08:59] <Tru7h> york105: I recall from the installation that I had one 100 MB partition for some Windows thing as well as a 200 GB partition for the actual Windows OS, plus a 100 GB partition for ubuntu which I let the installer set up. I don't remember the specifics and I'm not sure how to call them up.
[08:59] <maginot> theadmin, with apt-get remove
[08:59] <gottto> theadmin: sudo apt-get purge
[08:59] <coz_> ShazbotMcMurder,  personally I have never had issues to date  and its been 6 years
[08:59] <llutz> theadmin: aptitude purge '~nopenoffice'
[09:00] <theadmin> llutz: "~nopenoffice"?!?! What on earth is that?
[09:00] <gottto> hehe
[09:00] <ShazbotMcMurder> coz_, I've never had any noticeable problems, it's been a few years here also
[09:00] <llutz> theadmin: man aptitude (name contains)
[09:00] <coz_> ShazbotMcMurder,  also some will tell you to use "aptitude"  I only use apt
[09:00] <york105> Tru7h,  if you are already logged into Linux can you upload the output of sudo fdisk -l to a paste service like paste.ubuntu.com
[09:00] <maginot> I don't like using aptitude to remove packages, it have to much initiative :P
[09:00] <ShazbotMcMurder> coz_, aptitude and apt are very different things as I understand though
[09:01] <ShazbotMcMurder> coz_, I also only use apt though :)
[09:01] <coz_> ShazbotMcMurder,  well aptitude is "older" I believe
[09:01] <Tru7h> darolu: "E: Couldn't find package startupmanager", doesn't seem to be in the repos
[09:01] <llutz> coz_: wrong
[09:01] <murlidhar> hi all .. I am using gnome and i would want one particular application to open maximised everytime i start the application... is there any way i could do it in gnome ?
[09:01] <pinoyoragon> Hi. I want clients to login in their gdm authenticated by an ldap server. My problem is that I get this error "Invalid credentials (49)" when I invoke this command --> ldapsearch -xLLL -b cn=config -D cn=admin,cn=config -W olcDatabase=hdb olcAccess
[09:01] <theadmin> llutz: It wants to remove 3.2 this way, i need to keep that but remove ONLY 3.1
[09:01] <maginot> coz_, aptitude is much newer
[09:01] <llutz> theadmin: then use a string only catching 3.1
[09:02] <york105> maginot, aptitude handles dependencies better than apt, also its able to verify why you should or should not install any packages ( detect conflicts )
[09:02] <theadmin> llutz: Example plz? I've no idea what package names are
[09:02] <darolu> Tru7h, yes it is in the repos, it is pretty basic (check your software sources) anyways you can download it from: http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/startupmanager
[09:02] <Tru7h> york105: Here's my output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/401033/
[09:02] <llutz> theadmin: "dpkg -l *openoffice*
[09:03] <Tru7h> darolu: Probably it just doesn't show up since this is a fresh install (i.e. no updates); I haven't bothered updating since this is my second reformat
[09:04] <ShazbotMcMurder> how do I add windows 7 to my menu.lst, I've been looking through a bunch of walkthroughs, but every one seems to say the same thing
[09:04] <maginot> york105, not exactly, aptitude use to remove other packages too, like those you "dont" use and so on, its easy to remove openoffice and when you see many other things where removed too. Apt-get is very more strict, it does the remove and nothing else, don't try to "update" the system, if you know what I mean.
[09:04] <ShazbotMcMurder> which is already in my menu.lst for 'default non-linux distro'
[09:04] <theadmin> Bleh. I'll just use synaptic.
[09:04] <ottoshmidt> hmm mysql doesn't start after setting default-character-set to utf8 :(((
[09:04] <ShazbotMcMurder> also - how do I tell which hdd / partition it's on
[09:04] <ShazbotMcMurder> It's actually on another whole hard drive
[09:04] <maginot> theadmin, which is a apt-get gui frontend =P
[09:04] <ShazbotMcMurder> would 'mount' still work?
[09:05] <Tru7h> darolu: sudo apt-get update allowed me to detect the file, sorry for my laziness
[09:05] <theadmin> maginot: Yep, and a SLOW one
[09:05] <york105> maginot, aye, agree but at the end of the day its what you like best, whisky or brandy, pick you poison
[09:05] <darkk^> maginot, I've resolved the issue - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cryptsetup/+bug/450620/comments/21
[09:05] <Tru7h> darolu: I'm running the manager now, what should I change to make Win7 work?
[09:05] <maginot> darkk^, was about your ntfs kernel drive?
[09:05] <Tru7h> darolu: Or is this just to make it so I don't have to hold shift?
[09:05] <llutz> maginot: apt-frontend (like apt-get) not apt-get frontend
[09:06] <darkk^> maginot, not at all :-)
[09:06] <maginot> llutz, what?
[09:06] <darolu> Tru7h, is OK, btw I saw your pastebin, first partition doesn't look right, and since you are logged in as root you don't need to use sudo :p
[09:06] <llutz> maginot: synaptic is a gui apt-frontend (like apt-get) not apt-get frontend
[09:06] <maginot> llutz, ahh right.
[09:06] <Tru7h> darolu: True, I have a tendency to be redundant, heh. Would that affect my output?
[09:07] <darkk^> maginot, it was half-upgraded udev
[09:07] <Tru7h> darolu: Also, what doesn't look right about it?
[09:07] <darolu> Tru7h, the startupmanager modifies the file you've been editing manually, you don't have much control with it (the gui) but it may fix your grub menu. And no, it doesn't affect your output.
[09:07] <ubuntu_> YOU DICK
[09:07] <pojie> yup
[09:07] <llutz> Tru7h: w7 always uses 2 partitions, one 100MB + the "real" system-partition
[09:08] <maginot> darkk^, good solution
[09:08] <darolu> Tru7h, the "10  Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary." part
[09:08] <ubuntu_> anyone collect sports cards
[09:08] <ubuntu_> anymore
[09:08] <Jimi_Neutral> Hi all, anyone know a good FTP server with GUI administration?
[09:08] <maginot> ubuntu_, you kiss your mother with that mouth ? ;/
[09:08] <Tru7h> darolu: What does that mean and how can I fix it?
[09:08] <ubuntu_> look at my hostid for gods sakes
[09:08] <Tru7h> darolu: Also, startupmanager doesn't seem to have fixed my automatic menu skipping issue
[09:08] <pojie> it,s me jimi
[09:08] <ubuntu_> this is ridiculous
[09:08] <llutz> ubuntu_: troll off here
[09:09] <coz_> llutz,   yes I just did more research on apt vs aptiude
[09:09] <gottto> !offtopic | ubuntu_
[09:09] <york105> Tru7h, just read the output, the "Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary" line means that part of your disk is unusable, could be because when you were partitioning your drive you chose to go by megabytes and not cylinders anyway so does Windows on sda1 boot okay then?
[09:09] <ShazbotMcMurder> okay, well I found that out - there's a separator in my menu.lst - do I have to put something there, because I would really just like a space there, and it to be separated from the linux operating systems anywho
[09:10] <maginot> darkk^, I just don't get it why did you had to created those nods  by hand
[09:10] <darolu> Tru7h, it means the partition doesn't end wher it should ends (making it unusuable), fixing it may affect your sda2 partition, so don't touch it unless you are willing to run the risk of having to re-install windows (on sda2)
[09:11] <darkk^> maginot, broken udev could not create them ;)
[09:11] <Tru7h> york105: Yes, I went by megabytes, not sure how to go by cylinders (I'm rather incompetent when it comes to partitioning). And no, Win7 doesn't boot, it give an error saying "BOOTMGR is missing / Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart"
[09:11] <Jimi_Neutral> Hi all, anyone know a good FTP server with GUI administration?
[09:11] <maginot> maginot, a broken udev is very bad. Will you keep that way?
[09:11] <darolu> Jimi_Neutral, gftp
[09:12] <darolu> Jimi_Neutral, nvm I thought you said client
[09:12] <Jimi_Neutral> darolu, no worries :)
[09:12] <Tru7h> darolu: What's the chance I would be forced to reinstall Windows? If all else fails, I'll just go back to using Wubi, but I've had some bad experiences with it and I'd really prefer to have Ubuntu as its own partition
[09:12] <theadmin> There, i'm done. For anyone wondering, app was in /opt/openoffice.org3/program/soffice
[09:13] <Jimi_Neutral> does gproftp not exist anymore?
[09:13] <darkk^> maginot, no, udev was broken as dpkg was interrupted for some reason (don't know why, I have some assumption though) I had to run dpkg --configure -a
[09:14] <darolu> Tru7h, I'm not sure what the chance would be as I'm not familiar with Win7 at all, I don't know if the BOOTMGR error needs re-installing of win7; I suppose re-installing is not needed and that creating/pasting a BOOTMGR file should fix it
[09:14] <Justus> hi, is there a way to install a more up to date version of php5-fcgi on ubuntu jaunty server? I'd really like to not have to compile it myself
[09:14] <gottto> theadmin: here ooobase is a shell script linking to soffice
[09:14] <gottto> ...
[09:14] <Tru7h> darolu: Google has told me that running "Windows Startup Repair" should fix the BOOTMGR issue, I'm relatively sure it won't screw up GRUB as long as I don't use bootrec.exe
[09:14] <theadmin> gottto: Yeah, weird.
[09:14] <theadmin> Tru7h: Recovering GRUB is easy.
[09:14] <gottto> what's in a name
[09:15] <darolu> Tru7h, you can try it, I can't really tell since I have never used Win7; go for it, if it kills grub2 you can always re-install it using a LiveCD
[09:15] <Tru7h> theadmin: I have no issues with recovering GRUB, the problem is, if I recover GRUB it still fails to recognize my Windows installation
[09:15] <york105> Tru7h, so to start with let's resolve the Windows boot issue. I am assuming you have recently upgraded to win7 from XP/Vista, you'll need the win7 setup disc. Insert the disc, reboot the computer, go to command prompt and issue the command bootrec /fixboot . Let it complete what it wants to do and reboot. Once done boot using an Ubuntu Live CD and go to command prompt and issue the update-grub command so it now recognises Windows. Yo
[09:15] <york105> u may want to try booting to windows once the fixboot command has finished its business.
[09:15] <theadmin> Tru7h: Have you tried "sudo update-grub"?
[09:16] <Tru7h> theadmin: Yes, a few times, as well as sudo update-grub2.
[09:16] <Tru7h> york105: That sounds feasible, I'll try it out and let you know what happens.
[09:16] <darolu> theadmin, york105, Tru7h's initial problem was GRUB not adding Win7 to the boot list, he had to remove os-prober and edit /etc/grub.d/40_custom to add the entry; and now Windows 7 won't boot
[09:16] <york105> Tru7h, sure
[09:17] <theadmin> Hm. GRUB 1 did not detect my XP too :/
[09:18] <ubuntu_> fuck this shit
[09:18] <Jimi_Neutral> can someone help me to find, install and configure grpoftpd please
[09:18] <ubuntu_> kill
[09:19] <york105> darolu thanks for that ; Tru7h in the light of what darolu has just pointed out i am guessing its the parameters you're passing to the windows boot command in grub that might have something to do with windows failing to boot
[09:19] <Tru7h> york105: As a prerequisite to your suggestion, I'm trying the Startup Repair option. It probably won't work, but I figure it's worth a shot.
[09:19] <Tru7h> york105: Scratch that, it failed.
[09:19] <york105> Tru7h, since you're up for it, yeah sure, why not :)
[09:19] <darolu> york105, he is using the 40_custom only: http://paste.ubuntu.com/401020/
[09:19] <theadmin> ubottu: ops | ubuntu_ swears and floods
[09:20] <gnomefreak> ?
[09:21] <ubuntu_> hi larry hows it hanging
[09:21] <ubuntu_> dugout?
[09:21] <Tru7h> york105: If I run update-grub from my partition installation rather than a Live CD, will it still work? (Live CDs take forever on my computer)
[09:21] <ackt1c> hi
[09:22] <Vigo> Jimi_Neutral: Looking on the forums, I have never used that, but will help as best as I can.
[09:22] <york105> Tru7h, its like trying to fix the deck of a ship you're sailing on, instead you'd want to work from a dock, if the deck cracks you don't fall ;)
[09:22] <tp43_> Tru7h, yep, I think so.  My guess is you use the live cd to run update grub when you can't boot into your partition.  But I would follow a how to if I were you
[09:23] <Tru7h> york105: That's a good analogy, I'll use the Live CD just for that
[09:23] <darolu> Tru7h, york105 I'm going to bed, good luck with that Win7
[09:23] <york105> nighty night darolu
[09:23] <Jimi_Neutral> Vigo, ok ty
[09:23] <Tru7h> darolu: Thanks so much for your help, have a good night
[09:24] <Tru7h> Dang, missed him.
[09:24]  * maginot night (?) almost 6:30am here =X
[09:25] <shazbotmcnasty> how do I figure out what hd I should put for a windows partition?
[09:25] <york105> Tru7h, you might want to make sure you can access your Windows partition from Ubuntu. I know you'll reboot and try my first suggestion but in light of what you've previously tried, I'd make sure you have the following installed
[09:25] <shazbotmcnasty> it's /dev/sda3
[09:25] <shazbotmcnasty> but (hd0,3) doesn't work
[09:25] <york105> > sudo apt-get install ntfs-config >sudo ntfs-config
[09:25] <shazbotmcnasty> because (hd0,0) is my /
[09:25] <llutz> shazbotmcnasty: (hd0,2) = /dev/sda3
[09:25] <Vigo> Jimi_Neutral: Looks like it does exist:>http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/karmic/man8/proftpd.8.html
[09:25] <Take0n> I must have done something but my external hdds won't mount automatically. usually when I connected the usb the folders popuped up automatically but this morning nothing happens.. could someone please help me?
[09:25] <shazbotmcnasty> OH 2
[09:25] <shazbotmcnasty> so
[09:25] <shazbotmcnasty> k
[09:25] <shazbotmcnasty> thanks llutz
[09:25] <llutz> shazbotmcnasty: grub starts counting at 0
[09:25] <Take0n> I installed Ailurus yesterday so it might have done something?
[09:25] <shazbotmcnasty> yeah forgot
[09:25] <shazbotmcnasty> like all computers
[09:25] <shazbotmcnasty> :/
[09:25] <FloodBot1> shazbotmcnasty: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:26] <shazbotmcnasty> lol
[09:26] <Vigo> Jimi_Neutral: Which version are you looking for?
[09:26] <shazbotmcnasty> meaner bot
[09:26] <gottto> Take0n: do they show in   fdisk -l   in terminal?
[09:26] <Jimi_Neutral> Vigo, yeah proftp does but i need the gui which is gproftpd but every tutorial i goto tells me to do 'sudo apt-get install gproftpd' but it doesnt find anything
[09:26] <Take0n> no nothing shows with that command
[09:26] <gottto> !enter | shazbotmcnasty
[09:26] <Tru7h> york105: I'll assume you want me to install those from my partition? In any case, my Live CD is booting so I'll update-grub and see what happens, but otherwise I'll boot my partition and install those packages
[09:26] <Jimi_Neutral> Vigo, any version, i really dont care at this point lol
[09:27] <shazbotmcnasty> I know, I know gottto - you guys are no fun
[09:27] <york105> Tru7h, sure, you're headed the right way
[09:27] <Vigo> Jimi_Neutral: heh, Did you look at psychcats?
[09:28] <Jimi_Neutral> Vigo, ?
[09:28] <theadmin> well, wow, 3.2 is a ton faster then 3.1
[09:29] <Vigo> Jimi_Neutral: > http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/index , good resource
[09:29] <Take0n> gottto, any ideas?
[09:29] <Tru7h> york105: I get something wierd from within the live cd when I run update-grub: "grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for /."
[09:29] <jae> Jut
[09:30] <theadmin> Tru7h: Uh.
[09:30] <Vigo> Jimi_Neutral: Did or have you enabled Extra Repositories?
[09:30] <gottto> Take0n: are the drives working on another comp?
[09:30] <Jimi_Neutral> Vigo, still very new to linux
[09:30] <theadmin> Tru7h: You need to chroot into the existing install to run update-grub on a CD.
[09:30] <Take0n> gottto, yes and they worked on mine as well yesterday night
[09:30] <gottto> Take0n: or try    lsusb
[09:30] <Tru7h> theadmin: Sorry, how do I do that?
[09:30] <jae> Just looked into /etc/X11, and i don't see any conf file.  Where is that?
[09:31] <Vigo> Jimi_Neutral: Welcome to stable and free. I learn every day, is fun.
[09:31] <Sagam> Hi to all
[09:31] <coz_> Take0n,  you could look here http://grub.enbug.org/Grub2LiveCdInstallGuide
[09:31] <theadmin> Tru7h: Mount the device where you have Linux on, then do "sudo chroot /path/to/mount/point"
[09:31] <llutz> jae: there is none by default, if you need on, create one
[09:31] <coz_> theadmin,   rather you   http://grub.enbug.org/Grub2LiveCdInstallGuide
[09:31] <Justus> ok, following problem: I want php5-fcgi from lucid, but stay at jaunty for the rest of the system, so I would append the sources for lucid in the sources.list and create the file /etc/apt/preferences with the content "jaunty" then do apt-get install -t lucid php5-fcgi, is this correct?
[09:31] <Jimi_Neutral> Vigo, heh ty, when you say extra ones do you mean canonical and backport?
[09:31] <coz_> Take0n,  sorry wrong nick
[09:31] <Take0n> coz_, are u sure that will help me?
[09:31] <york105> Tru7h, its probably because you do not have any device nodes in your chroot. You may want to bind them manually :D and it gets tricky from here
[09:31] <Take0n> ah okay :P
[09:31] <jae> And how's the X server know what to do?  Or rather, more concretely, where do I adjust the kbd config?
[09:31] <Vigo> Jimi_Neutral: Have you spent a day or so at the Ubuntu Forums?
[09:32] <Take0n> gottto, nothing there as well :\
[09:32] <Vigo> Jimi_Neutral: That is exactly what that means.
[09:32] <coz_> I am not paying attention this morning so I am off for the night
[09:32] <theadmin> coz_: what?
[09:32] <Jimi_Neutral> yes, but to be honest im not that interested in it, im just doing what my ;ehy this is a good idea lets do this' boss tells me to
[09:32] <Take0n> gottto, my USB flash stick won't work either :\ it's like it doesn't mount anything..
[09:32] <coz_> theadmin,  my fault...too tired not paying attention close enough sorry about that
[09:32] <Jimi_Neutral> Vigo, yes i have enabled them but still no gproftpd
[09:32] <gottto> Take0n: then something is wrong with them being mounted - what was the app you installed for?
[09:32]  * jae thought the X server needed a config file... but that seems to be the "brave new world" of X these days: "I know my configuration, but I'm telling *you*"
[09:33] <Take0n> It was something like ubuntu tweak
[09:33] <Tru7h> theadmin: I believe I've done so, but I get the error mentioned above plus this: "sudo: unable to resolve host ubuntu"
[09:33] <Take0n> I read about it in a blog and wanted to take a look give it a try
[09:33] <Jimi_Neutral> someone must know of a good easy to use GUI ftp server for ubuntu
[09:33] <Tru7h> york105: Want me to just try updating grub from my partition and installing the packages you mentioned there?
[09:33] <llutz> jae: all that should be handled by hal now, and by udev in future (afaik)
[09:33] <Vigo> Jimi_Neutral: Can you use a different package than that and or is one listed in Synaptic?
[09:34] <york105> Jimi_Neutral, you mean GUI FTP Client?
[09:34] <jae> llutz: "all that"... so, it does mindreading to know that I do or do not want deadkeys?
[09:34] <llutz> jae: but you still can create your own xorg.conf with the options you need
[09:34]  * jae hates all this magic crap, yes, crap
[09:34] <york105> Tru7h, yes, if you boot into Ubuntu and install the package and run it from there
[09:34] <Sagam> I have a question: I have set up a File Server at work using Ubuntu server. My problem is that I have a document that is shared on the metwork and at least 2 people write in it. The problem is that every time when someone writes in that file the owner of the file changes to nobody and after that no one can open the file anymore, just the last person who has added data to the file. How can I make the file to retain the owner and be able to have multiple user in
[09:34] <Jimi_Neutral> york105, no i mean a GUI front end to control an FTP server
[09:34] <llutz> jae: true but reality :(
[09:35] <jae> llutz: got any URLs where this is documented?  Or at least announced?
[09:35] <Jimi_Neutral> Vigo, thats what im trying to find out if there is another one in case i cant get this one working
[09:35] <gottto> Take0n: it might have just messed the mounting part - type in terminal   dmesg | tail   and unplug the drive and replug it and redo that command
[09:35] <llutz> jae: ask ms google pls
[09:35] <ubuntu> exit
[09:36] <jae> llutz: I'm asking, I really am, but have yet to guess the correct search terms
[09:36] <theadmin> Where the heck is menu configuration stored?
[09:36] <Vigo> Jimi_Neutral: I just did a search in Synaptic and found a load of FTP GUI stuff.
[09:36] <Josh90> I am currently using a pidgin screenlet. but I still have the pidgin window that keeps coming up too. I was wondering if there was a way to open pidgin with no window so it just uses the screenlet.
[09:36] <Kambanka> Ubuntu 10.04 has the titlebar buttons on the left - what were the designers thinking? And were they thinking at all!@#$
[09:36] <Jimi_Neutral> Vigo, well as i said i am new to this and not sure what is what so i was hoping to be pointed to a decent package that has a gui front end and a very in depth tutorial
[09:36] <york105> Sagam, Linux uses inodes to ref\deref. files, google concurrent file access linux and you'll find what you're looking for ;)
[09:37] <theadmin> Kambanka: Possible to revert them... Hey, what the?
[09:37] <cwraig> Sagam, somwhere in /etc/samba/smb.conf you will find something about default permissions
[09:37] <llutz> jae: look for "fdi preferences xorg hal", it should bring some results. sorry i don't have www here atm
[09:37] <theadmin> ...I like them on the left side.... :/
[09:37] <Josh90> theadmin right click the App's bar  and a drop down as it in ther as edit menu's
[09:37] <jae> llutz: *thanks*!
[09:37] <theadmin> Josh90: I want to back em up. Any way to?
[09:38] <rexn> kambanka: they were thinking OS X style
[09:38] <Vigo> Jimi_Neutral: let me browse through these ohh, 8k results in Synaptic...
[09:38] <Josh90> theadmin not to sure about that one
[09:38] <jae> Oct 2008... damn, that's old, I'm *really* behind the times :P
[09:38] <Jimi_Neutral> Vigo, lol ok ty
[09:38] <Tru7h> york105: I ran update-grub and installed/ran the package you mentioned, but when I reboot (holding shift) and select my Win7 installation I still get "BOOTMGR is missing"
[09:38] <iflema> Jimi_Neutral cli alot of the time is faster and/or less confusing..... maybe try gadmin-proftpd
[09:39] <Take0n> gottto, still nothing.. I will try to relogin
[09:39] <Take0n> brb
[09:39] <york105> Tru7h,  and the previous fixboot thing didn't finish (in windows boot disc), did it?
[09:39] <gottto> k
[09:39] <theadmin> Tru7h: bootmgr is a file on C:\ (or whatever is system drive in Windows). Is it there?
[09:39] <Jimi_Neutral> iflema, the reason i am trying to find a gui one is because I said I would try and do what the boss wanted me to do using command line and he is like no find a gui front end
[09:39] <Vigo> Jimi_Neutral: Do you have Synaptic Package Manager opened?
[09:39] <theadmin> Tru7h: (mount your ntfs device. It should be called simply "bootmgr")
[09:39] <shazbotmcnasty> hey, I got windows to go into grub
[09:39] <jae> And: XML again.  "XML is the panacea, it is the silver bullet, and we shit on Fred Brooks"...  and I actually like XML, mind you
[09:39] <Jimi_Neutral> Vigo, i do now
[09:40] <shazbotmcnasty> but instead of (hd0,2) for /dev/sda3, it turned out to be (hd1,1)
[09:40] <shazbotmcnasty> I don't know why
[09:40]  * jae is getting into a pissy mood, so I better so outta here for a bit :/
[09:40] <AbortD> hui of what?
[09:40] <Vigo> Jimi_Neutral: Look at pyftp
[09:40] <Tru7h> york105: It said the command completed successfully, I can try again if necessary
[09:40] <iflema> Jimi_Neutral gadmin-proftpd what ya looking for...
[09:40] <AbortD> gui
[09:40] <llutz> shazbotmcnasty: win7? then tell it Tru7h ;)
[09:40] <Tru7h> theadmin: I'll let you know once I'm in an OS
[09:40] <Josh90> I am currently using a pidgin screenlet. but I still have the pidgin window that keeps coming up too. I was wondering if there was a way to open pidgin with no window so it just uses the screenlet.
[09:40] <Jimi_Neutral> iflema, he wants to grant one person access to the FTP but to one folder only and cause there is a nice little tool that does that in windows he thinks it is that easy in linux....i have proftpd installed i just needa graphical front end
[09:41] <Jimi_Neutral> Vigo, does that have a GUI
[09:41] <Vigo> Jimi_Neutral: Or what iflema said, probably is better, as I said, I never have used that package.
[09:41] <shazbotmcnasty> llutz, excuse?
[09:41] <Jimi_Neutral> iflema, does that have a GUI?
[09:41] <theadmin> GUI, GUI.... why the heck nobody likes the CLI? It's usually a lot faster :/
[09:41] <AbortD> Josh90, how did you install the screenlet?
[09:41] <Tru7h> Honestly, if Wine had better support for my games and MS Office 2007, I would just kill Windows and do a fresh install of Ubuntu
[09:42] <iceroot> Tru7h: use openoffice
[09:42] <AbortD> Josh90, i will install it and see if i cant figure it out
[09:42] <llutz> shazbotmcnasty: did you add win7 to your grub? then tell it Tru7h hes trying to do that since hours ;)
[09:42] <Jimi_Neutral> theadmin, maybe so but what he wants he gets and i am no linux expert
[09:42] <ayam_jago> Tru7h: vbox :d
[09:42] <jae> theadmin: that's the new world order: we do everything in GUIs.  And we *require* it, and you won't even (easily) find out where we keep our info
[09:42] <theadmin> Jimi_Neutral: True indeed... Hm, my favorite FTP client is fireftp (and THAT has a GUI, infact it's a FF addon)
[09:42] <AbortD> Jimi_Neutral, what do you need a gui for?
[09:42]  * jae hates gconf with a passion
[09:42] <Tru7h> iceroot: I use it for most things, but I like the formula editor in Office 2007 (I use it frequently for my class notes) and I can't find a decent equivalent for Linux
[09:42] <llutz> theadmin: like you're using synaptic over apt-get/aptitude? ;)
[09:42] <shazbotmcnasty> --> bed tiem
[09:42] <iceroot> Tru7h: LaTeX
[09:43] <theadmin> llutz: I hate using Synaptic actually.
[09:43] <iceroot> Tru7h: that a REAL formulas
[09:43] <Take0n> thank you gottto it works :)
[09:43] <gottto> :)
[09:43] <Tru7h> iceroot: The thing is, I combine that formula editor with my custom keyboard layout, and I can't find a good layout editor for ubuntu
[09:43] <Vigo> Jimi_Neutral: Yes, gFTP _GTK also looks like a decent one.
[09:44] <Josh90> AbortD: I installed the program called Screenlets Manager if i think it was one of the default screenlets down the page
[09:44] <Tru7h> iceroot: Don't get me wrong, I use Ubuntu for almost everything, but for this as well as gaming I need Windows 7
[09:44] <Jimi_Neutral> ok to everyone that keeps aksing me the same question.....my boss wants me to give access to one user on the network to this ubuntu box....because he has a little tool in wondows that does that nicley he thinks it is that easy in windows, so therefor it is down to me to find an FTP server in ubuntu that is configurable with a GUI....and for the last time I NEED A GUI FTP ADMINISTRATOR TOOL NOT AN FTP CLIENT....sorry but i go
[09:44] <Jimi_Neutral> t him on my back and im getting stressed as hell here
[09:44] <theadmin> llutz: apt-get FTW! It even has super cow powers!
[09:44] <iceroot> !shortcuts | Tru7h
[09:44] <Jimi_Neutral> but he can only have access to one fodler on that pc
[09:45] <Jimi_Neutral> because he can do that with his windows tool whatever its called
[09:45] <Vigo> Jimi_Neutral: Just found the DOCs for ProFTPd. add that d to it.
[09:45] <llutz> theadmin: may i remind you to your openoffice-removal ;)
[09:45] <theadmin> llutz: Well, couldn't... although i totally forgot about apt-cache
[09:45] <Tru7h> iceroot: Do keyboard shortcuts allow you to insert custom characters? I use MSKLC on Windows
[09:45] <Jimi_Neutral> Vigo, i know to add the d
[09:45] <Tru7h> And that still doesn't fix the lack of Wine support for my games :P I'm a fan of LAN
[09:45] <Jimi_Neutral> Vigo, but proftpd is not graphical......Gproftpd is but i cant find it.....that is the problem
[09:46] <iflema> Jimi_Neutral gadmin-proftpd faily straight foward.... alot of settings you will not use, but i think youll find the few thaqt need setting
[09:46] <iceroot> Tru7h: hm, i dont know, dont using shortcuts on keyboarsd like that
[09:46] <rocket16> Ahh, the user named MarkProffitt, is a great person! I checked it out on web!
[09:46]  * jae thinks that someone should, and sooner or later someone probably will (if it hasn't happened already) do a GNU/Linux dist that has all that autoconfig (avahi, *hurl*) crap ripped out
[09:46] <Jimi_Neutral> iflema, and that is grpahical yea?
[09:46] <elena12> In Ubuntu 10.04 Beta Netbook Edition, I can't unlock the gnome panel, the options are greyed out.
[09:46] <theadmin> Mark?... eek. Whenever i hear that i think of mr. Shuttleworth
[09:46] <darksee> hello from russia
[09:46] <Vigo> Jimi_Neutral: In Synaptic there are like 10 packages of that, pick the one that you and the others are use to, and fetch it.
[09:46] <iflema> Jimi_Neutral yes sir
[09:46] <Jimi_Neutral> iflema, ty bud
[09:46] <jae> Or at least reduce its influence a lot
[09:47] <Tru7h> My layout is extremely custom, and though I've looked for a decent layout creator on Ubuntu I haven't found one
[09:47] <Jimi_Neutral> Vigo, ty for your help bro
[09:47] <haavaros> I'm using gnome terminal to ssh to a server where im running irssi, and when I try to press alt-t for the 14th window, gnome-terminal doesn't send this to irssi, but instead opens its own menu. Any fix?
[09:47] <AbortD> Josh90, what was your exact problem again
[09:47] <AbortD> i have it working for me
[09:47] <iceroot> haavaros: disable the gnome-terminal menu
[09:47] <Anvoid> my Internet doesn't work. weird thing is, connection works fine for everything except browsing the Internet. when i restart the router, it works again. is this hardware issue?
[09:47] <Tru7h> iceroot: And by "extremely custom" I mean it's a modified Svorak layout which includes more Greek letters than the normal one (for my physics labs)
[09:47] <iceroot> haavaros: change the shortcuts in the gnome-terminal menue or use /win 14
[09:47] <Vigo> Jimi_Neutral: Np, I am going to fetch that now and play with it, so thank you!
[09:47] <elena12> In Ubuntu 10.04 Beta Netbook Edition, I can't unlock the gnome panel, the options are greyed out. What can I do to edit the gnome panel??
[09:48] <Jimi_Neutral> Vigo,  lol nice nice
[09:48] <iceroot> Tru7h: have a look at LaTeX :)
[09:48] <jae> Serious question now: is it correct that to set nodeadkeys one has to edit some udev rules/files?  That would be *really* idiotic.
[09:48] <iceroot> Tru7h: its perfect for the math-stuff
[09:48] <iceroot> elena12: /join #ubuntu+1
[09:48] <rocket16> theadmin: Lol, no he is MArkProffitt, here is the info http://markproffitt.com/about/
[09:48] <Jimi_Neutral> ok one more thing...how would i remove the server that is already on there.....i had vsftp
[09:48] <Josh90> AbortD: when i open pidgin I would like it to just open up in the screenlet. not to have the window in the menu bar down the bottom
[09:48] <elena12> ty iceroot
[09:48] <haavaros> iceroot: Ah, thx. Embarrasing that I didn't see that myself :P
[09:48] <Tru7h> york105: Still got that BOOTMGR error, I'm about ready to give up and pack 'er in though, I have class in a few hours and I need some rest
[09:49] <Jimi_Neutral> basically so i know vsftpd is removed and proftpd is working
[09:49] <user__> anyone know how to enable restricted drivers via terminal on ubuntu server?
[09:49] <AbortD> Josh90, are you running kde or gnome?
[09:49] <Josh90> AbortD: at the monent it open's if both places but i would like it just to open in the screen let
[09:49] <jrib> user__: isntall them, use them in xorg.conf
[09:49] <cyber-life> j
[09:49] <Josh90> AbortD: gnome
[09:49] <Tru7h> iceroot: I use LaTeX, in fact it's supported in MS Word 2007 and I make frequent use of it in there and elsewhere, but it's just not sufficient for what I'm doing
[09:49]  * jae leaves the room to scream a little... (dampened by door)AAAAARRRRRRGHH
[09:50] <iflema> Jimi_Neutral one way is all at once remove/install new in synaptic package manager
[09:50] <AbortD> both have to be open the screenlet runs off of the info it gives but how i have my pidgin setup its in my letter icon top right
[09:50] <AbortD> so i dont see it
[09:50] <Vigo> Jimi_Neutral: That is a simple thing, you can use the GUI thing, Software Center or go bully and use the /force, Terminal,
[09:50] <AbortD> you will be stuck with some kind of icon
[09:50] <Tru7h> iceroot: If I have to use LaTeX code to format everything I'll fall behind my prof in class
[09:50] <iceroot> Tru7h: ah ok
[09:50] <Josh90> AbortD: That sounds alright
[09:51] <Tru7h> iceroot: Trust me, though, as soon as I find a decent custom keyboard layout creator for Linux I'll be abandoning all this Windows nonsense and fresh installing Ubuntu
[09:51] <AbortD> so are you trying to keep it out of the bottom panel or top?
[09:51] <york105> Tru7h, try workin on it later, any how simply put the bootmgr basically refers the 'bit' that the system trasnfers command to once level 1 boot loader is done
[09:52] <Josh90> AbortD: I was hoping both. But i might not be able to
[09:52] <Jimi_Neutral> hmm ok i obviously wasnt using vftp cause i can still access the box from this laptop lol
[09:52] <Tru7h> york105: That makes sense, thanks so much for your help even if we didn't get everything working, I really appreciated it
[09:52] <Jimi_Neutral> my god i am n ow so confused
[09:52] <Tru7h> For now I'll just expand my Windows partition and go back to using Wubi
[09:52] <AbortD> Josh90, you can stop it in the bottom but not top you could hide it in the envelope though
[09:53] <york105> Tru7h, no worries ;) i'll be hanging around here so will resume debugging if you come back
[09:53] <theadmin> rocket16: Yeah, Shuttleworth is known online as "sabdfl"
[09:53] <Josh90> AbortD: i not to sure how to do that one.
[09:53] <haavaros> I'm looking for a way to make column width in compact view (gnome) dynamic ... is this possible? Or at least increasing the fixed width
[09:53] <rocket16> theadmin: Great!
[09:53] <york105> Tru7h, out of sheet curiosity why use WUBI?
[09:53] <Tru7h> york105: Sounds good, though it won't be until later today, I need at least a couple hours of sleep :P
[09:53] <Tru7h> york105: Thanks again, take care and have a good night
[09:54] <AbortD> i would have to see a screen of your upper right screen to help you honestly
[09:54] <Tru7h> york105: I'll use Wubi because it works.
[09:54] <Vigo> Jimi_Neutral: That is the fun part.
[09:54] <Tru7h> york105: I know it's known for compatability issues but in my case, it's what I had running before and I only started having issues when I tried installing Ubuntu to a real partition
[09:54] <york105> Tru7h, why not try a clean install, I mean installing Ubuntu is not rocket science, its kinda straight forward
[09:55] <Jimi_Neutral> Vigo, it would be fun if it was a hobby and i didnt have my boss breathing down my neck
[09:55] <Tru7h> york105: I have done so. I clean installed Ubuntu and then put Windows on after, but Ubuntu has failed in every case to recognize Windows.
[09:55] <Jimi_Neutral> Vigo, i dont remeber installing any other ftp servers
[09:55] <Jimi_Neutral> Vigo, obviously i cant set this proftp up until i have removed the other one right
[09:55] <Josh90>  AbortD:   ar   i see.
[09:55] <york105> Tru7h, :D sure Ubuntu will fail, as I said the general practice is to install Windows first and then put Ubuntu on your machine later
[09:56] <s7> He Everyone, am having issues with my mic while using skype on ubuntu 9.04. Plz help guide me on how to fix it.
[09:56] <Tru7h> york105: I tried that as well, I had deleted Wubi (leaving only Windows on my machine) and then used a Karmic CD to install Ubuntu, and I ran into the same issue of GRUB not seeing Win7
[09:57] <edakiri> s7: are you interested in help setting up skype alternatives?
[09:57] <Vigo> Jimi_Neutral: After you crunch the numbers and look at the savings, actually no, forget the other OS that you worked with, we have stepped out of the Windows now, you can leave it or remove, really does not matter.
[09:57] <york105> Tru7h, whenever you're ready we'll resume this one
[09:57] <Tru7h> york105: As of yet the only thing I've ever gotten to work properly on this machine is Wubi, so I'm going back to it for now
[09:57] <theadmin> By the way, if GRUB overwrites the windows bootloader, HOW windows manages to boot? :/
[09:57] <yusuf> hi , i've problem with virtaulbox look > "Please install the virtualbox-ose-dkms package and execute 'modprobe vboxdrv' as root."
[09:57] <Jimi_Neutral> Vigo, i would porefe to remove
[09:57] <maginot> theadmin, grub loads it
[09:57] <DJones> theadmin: Grub add's an entry for windows in its own boot loader
[09:58] <york105> theadmin, Grub never over writes its encapsulates itself over windows boot
[09:58] <Tru7h> york105: That sounds excellent, I feel bad for bailing but I'm honestly falling out of my chair, will you be around tonight?
[09:58] <theadmin> As far as i understand, actually, Windows installs it's bootloader (ntldr) onto the system drive and "links" it to MBR...
[09:58] <Vigo> Jimi_Neutral: I understand, took me a while to get used to that also.
[09:58] <york105> Tru7h, I am here all day its breakfast time here in london, will be here all after noon
[09:59] <yusuf> stall the virtualbox-ose-dkms package and execute 'modprobe vboxdrv' as root." problem with virutal box please help please
[09:59] <Tru7h> york105: I'll be back once I'm awake in that case, but for now I'm headed off. Thanks again; take care!
[09:59] <york105> Tru7h, catch ya  later mate
[09:59] <zykes-> anyone here know if virt-manager 0.8.3 has been backported ?
[09:59] <theadmin> yusuf: Uhm, dude, just do what it says to do. Type this in the terminal: "sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose-dkms && sudo modprobe vboxdrv"
[09:59] <haavaros> I've failed to work out how to change column width in compact view in gnome (ubuntu 9.10). I'd really appreciate a point in the right direction!
[10:00] <s7> edakiri, no but want to be guided on how to make my mic work in skype
[10:00] <haavaros> *pointer
[10:00] <yusuf> theadmin thanks gonna try ^__^

[10:02] <dabukalam> hi all, i've been trying to get drupal to work on a jaunty server, but I keep hitting this error while trying to install mysql-server-5.0:  /var/cache/apt/archives/mysql-server-5.0_5.1.30really5.0.75-0ubuntu10.3_amd64.deb E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[10:02] <Jimi_Neutral> Vigo, ok i dont have any ftp servers installed now but i can still access the box thru my ftp client on another machine!
[10:03] <Vigo> Jimi_Neutral: Welcome to Linux.
[10:03] <yusuf> theadmin look at this :( http://pastebin.com/82pVqXwa
[10:03] <theadmin> yusuf: ...the hell? Try doing "sudo apt-get install dkms && sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup"
[10:04] <Jimi_Neutral> Vigo, try a restart
[10:04] <yusuf> theadmin :( http://pastebin.com/rPGJ0ju5
[10:05] <theadmin> yusuf: Bleh. OSE seems to be a lot different then regular virtualbox
[10:05] <Jimi_Neutral> is there a way i can find out what FTP server is running on my box?
[10:05] <yusuf> theadmin is virtaulbox with out ose good ?
[10:06] <theadmin> yusuf: Yeah, it's even better. Except that it's closed-source but it doesn't really matter. To download it, go to virtualbox.org

[10:11] <jakewc2> I upgraded to TB3. a couple of days ago, most of it went welll, but I have a problem with urls, I click on them and they bring up a choose application box.

[10:11] <Jimi_Neutral> Vigo, ty
[10:12] <Vigo> Jimi_Neutral: Np
[10:12] <jakewc2> there is nothing in the box to choose from

[10:13] <dabukalam> hi all, i've been trying to get drupal to work on a jaunty server, but I keep hitting this error while trying to install mysql-server-5.0:  /var/cache/apt/archives/mysql-server-5.0_5.1.30really5.0.75-0ubuntu10.3_amd64.deb E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[10:13] <jrib> jae: why does it matter?
[10:14] <jae> I hate having to rely on GUIs, that's why
[10:14] <theadmin> dabukalam: Could you try sudo apt-get -f install?
[10:14]  * jae is *ooold* (school)
[10:14] <jakewc2> oh, Rddie_6....sorry didnt see your post there, dont touch type, and takes a while to type and your post went up the page
[10:14] <dabukalam> theadmin, i did, over and over
[10:14] <dabukalam> theadmin, and over...
[10:14] <dabukalam> theadmin, i purged mysql and re-installed everything
[10:15] <theadmin> dabukalam: Hm. I had no problem installing LAMP on jaunty
[10:16] <Spilak> hi
[10:16] <Spilak> do you use ubuntu one?
[10:16] <dabukalam> theadmin, how can i start over completely? I can't re-install, that's not an option, but I want to get rid of any traces of the packages, and start again as if it was fresh
[10:16] <dabukalam> theadmin, purging them just doesn't seem to cut it
[10:16] <theadmin> dabukalam: Hm... No idea.
[10:17] <Spilak> my ubuntu one is bad
[10:17] <Spilak> not syncron?
[10:17] <Spilak> why?
[10:17] <madjoe> is it possible to make a shortcut (link) to a directory to behave like in Windows? once I open that shortcut, my path should be within that (original) directory.
[10:18] <jrib> madjoe: just use a symlink
[10:18] <guest> Hello all sorry im back
[10:18] <madjoe> jrib: any special flags I should use?
[10:18] <Gnea> madjoe: there are symbolic links, but it's not like windows where it's just a file, it's an actual link, so you're pwd would reflect either location
[10:18] <theadmin> madjoe: Just kinda like "ln -s originalfile linkname"
[10:18] <jakewc2> does anybody have any ideas please?
[10:18] <jrib> madjoe: no, ln -s TARGET NAME.  Or just rigth click -> create symlink (or whatever it says)
[10:19] <kanervr> kugf
[10:19] <theadmin> jrib: "make link"
[10:19] <jrib> theadmin: thank you
[10:19] <jrib> !helpme | jakewc2
[10:20] <madjoe> theadmin, jrib, Gnea: I already used "ln -s" but when I "cd linkname", my pwd will be "linkname", not "myoriginaldirname"
[10:20] <jrib> madjoe: so?
[10:20] <kanervr> Hello g0bl1n, welcome to #ubuntu
[10:20] <madjoe> jrib: it would be much easier to be able to navigate with "cd .." within my original dirname...
[10:20] <s7> hi, can u guide me how to fix the fault on my mic when using skype in ubuntu 9.04
[10:21] <theadmin> jrib: Oh. I got it. He want's the link to be something like... say, link is /home/link and origininal directory is /root/somedir/. So when he cd's into /home/link/stuff he wants it to actually be /root/somedir/stuff in $PWD
[10:21] <madjoe> theadmin: exactly
[10:22] <prodigel> hi all. I want to change X color depth but I can't find xorg.conf in 9.10 anymore.

[10:22] <prodigel> Can I generate it somehow/
[10:22] <prodigel> ?
[10:22] <Gnea> madjoe: try it?
[10:22] <Vigo> s7: Do you have all the drivers installed?
[10:22] <s7> yes, i have all drivers installed
[10:23] <theadmin> madjoe: No such think as "soft link", there are hard and symbolic ones. I think you need a hard one, so, omit "-s" in ln.
[10:23] <theadmin> madjoe: Just "ln target linkname"
[10:23]  * g0bl1n finds Lynx absolutely awesome ! And much faster then 9.10
[10:23] <madjoe> theadmin: yes, symbolic... I call it soft :) lol
[10:24] <Jimi_Neutral> ok i have installed gadmin-proftpd and i have set up the server...now i am trying to add a user but it is saying that user does not exist
[10:24] <madjoe> theadmin: ln: `xxx': hard link not allowed for directory
[10:24] <theadmin> madjoe: huh... weird. No idea actually.
[10:24]  * theadmin goes reading "man ln"
[10:24] <jrib> madjoe: you probably just want to use an alias, I don't see your use case
[10:24] <madjoe> Gnea: yes, I've tried it, but it won't work
[10:25] <theadmin> ...no idea. It seems hardlinks are not allowed for directories :/
[10:25] <lao5> hello
[10:26] <pooki> help with ubuntu
[10:26] <theadmin> pooki: What's the problem?
[10:26] <lao5> how to make u key linux system
[10:26] <pooki> ubuntu work but no internet
[10:26] <madjoe> jrib: no, not an alias.. my use case would be something like this: when I'm located in my ~/Downloads, I'd like to be able to quickly move files to different locations, such as "/var/www/home/sites/all/themes/mytheme/images"
[10:26] <theadmin> lao5: huh
[10:26] <lao5> i want a system that can boot from u key
[10:27] <theadmin> pooki: How do you connect? Wired/wireless/VPN/DSL?
[10:27] <pooki> wireless
[10:27] <theadmin> lao5: Ah, USB key?!
[10:27] <jrib> madjoe: what's wrong with using a symlink in that case?
[10:27] <lao5> theadmin: yes. usb key
[10:27] <Gnea> !usb | lao5
[10:27] <theadmin> lao5: lol ukey... Use usb-creator-gtk
[10:27] <lao5> theadmin: :-D
[10:28] <lao5> Gnea: :)
[10:28] <jrib> madjoe: or just store the long path in some variable and then do mv whatever_file $my_long_path
[10:28] <madjoe> jrib: I'd use links for that - like "mv filename linkname", but when I "cd linkname", I'm not able to navigate throught my "/var/www" path with "cd .." - maybe I should use both... alias AND links... hmmm.. but it's just weird
[10:28] <lao5> theadmin: :-D
[10:29] <athlon> Hi there! i just installed PureDyne (ubuntu based distr). I cant change my console font size. Any sugests?
[10:29] <pooki> ubuntu work but no internet...how to make it work
[10:29] <madjoe> pooki, to connect to it?
[10:29] <pooki> or I have to have wired connection?
[10:29] <Gnea> pooki: can't tell you ifyou don't tell us anything about how the connection is supposed to work
[10:30] <Jimi_Neutral> anyone know how i can configure gadmin-proftpd to allow users....i keep getting an error saying user cannot be found when i try to add one
[10:30] <jrib> madjoe: well I think in zsh you can have cd aliases, but really I think your solution is to just save the path in some short variable...
[10:30] <theadmin> pooki: Try configuring the connection manually.
[10:30] <Eddie_6> pooki: have youn installed the appropriate driver for your wireless card?
[10:30] <theadmin> pooki: Right click the networkmanager icon, hit "Edit connections", go to "Wireless", hit "add"...
[10:30] <pooki> connection is wireless...how to install driver
[10:30] <Gnea> !wifi | pooki
[10:31] <madjoe> jrib: well, that's not such an improvement comparing with symlinks... or am I missing something big here?
[10:31] <trom09> Hi everyone, Is there an easy way to mount and autoplay an iso dvd image from network share using vlc or other media player
[10:31] <iflema>  
[10:31] <jrib> madjoe: why not?  cd $my_path, mv whatever_file $my_path
[10:31] <theadmin> jrib: Well, that works for me... I have /var/www in a variable $htdocs
[10:31] <jrib> madjoe: you could ask #bash if there's a better way
[10:31] <madjoe> jrib: oh, cd $my_path WILL work as I expect! right!
[10:32] <theadmin> trom09: To mount an iso, use "mount -o loop isofile directory"
[10:34] <pooki> how to install wifi driver in ubuntu
[10:35] <digii> lspci and check what wifi card u have
[10:35] <theadmin> pooki: Sigh, details, details! Give us the card name at least.
[10:35] <pooki> theadmin: the wifi is built onto mobo
[10:35] <Jimi_Neutral> anyone know how i can configure gadmin-proftpd to allow users....i keep getting an error saying user cannot be found when i try to add one
[10:35] <theadmin> pooki: What the heck is mobo
[10:36] <g_> hi, how do i see a log of the times ubuntu booted up?
[10:36] <pooki> motherboard = mobo
[10:36] <digii> theadmin: thinks he mean motherboard
[10:37] <Beha-san> ubuntu 9.10 when connecting via ssh to 2 my server on control Vlan and running mc in terminal it hangs up! ssh to other servers and mc on term works fine O.o
[10:37] <sporedi> how do i setup a remote desktop where i should autologin to ubuntu it should not ask/prompt me to click on refuse or allow
[10:38] <Beha-san> the only thing it shows - a hint string on the botton of the screen
[10:38] <Beha-san> *bottom
[10:39] <theadmin> Beha-san: Try submitting a bug report, cause it sounds like a bug to me
[10:39] <guest> Hi guys, i really need some help with my ubuntu, as it wont boot. It says /proc busy
[10:39] <pooki> which distro comes with wifi drivers?
[10:40] <Beha-san> theadmin, the thing is that from my netbook every thing is ok ((
[10:40] <theadmin> Huh. What the? What does Ctrl+D in a terminal do? o_O It closes it for me
[10:40] <guest> guys ?
[10:40] <guest> :(
[10:40]  * switchgirl wants to download and use all rhythmbox plugins but hasn't got the time to work out why or how to use GIT repositories
[10:40] <erUSUL> theadmin: it sends EOF
[10:41] <Gnea> !ask | guest
[10:41] <theadmin> erUSUL: ...Sorry, EOF? I'm not in a shellscript or something?
[10:41] <Beha-san> the same thing is with 2 routers that reside on control vlan...
[10:41] <Vroomfondle> to be fair, he did ask his question
[10:41] <xangua> switchgirl: what plugins¿
[10:41] <erUSUL> theadmin: End Of Line
[10:41] <Vroomfondle> but presumably no-one knows the answer
[10:41] <guest> okay sorry :>
[10:41] <erUSUL> theadmin: End Of File
[10:41] <switchgirl> guest not all guys :) tehe
[10:41] <guest> soooorrry
[10:41] <guest> :P
[10:41] <erUSUL> theadmin: and yes it exits many editors and the shell
[10:41] <theadmin> erUSUL: So, basically, it seems to log out of the terminal session, right?
[10:41] <Beha-san> theadmin, it also logs you out
[10:41] <pooki> did anyone get wifi working in ubuntu
[10:42] <switchgirl> xangua: all the 3rd party one's
[10:42] <erUSUL> theadmin: is the same you get if you do exit or logout
[10:42] <guest> anyone have any ideas why my machine wont boot ? I get an error saying /proc is busy
[10:42] <switchgirl> is there a ppa with them all in ?
[10:42] <Gnea> pooki: just explain the problem you're having, please, in detail
[10:42] <trom09> pooki, did you do what everyone suggested?
[10:42] <theadmin> guest: Stop repeating every 5 seconds. Repeat once in twenty minutes or so, and post on teh forumz
[10:42] <xangua> switchgirl: you can try 'getdeb' to get the latest rhythmbox in karmic; for the plugins i don't know witch are you refering to
[10:43] <xangua> !google getdeb
[10:43] <guest> sorry theadmin, just nobody replied
[10:43] <guest> :(
[10:43] <guest> bad times
[10:43] <switchgirl> guest try pressing esc repeatedly when rebooting and then you will be presented with a brlue/red screen (not the bios) try using the arrow keys to select fix
[10:43] <madjoe> theadmin, jrib, Gnea: well, if you want to learn something, I've found the solution: echo $'#!/bin/bash\ncd "wanted dir"; exec bash' >shortcut.lnk; chmod +x shortcut.lnk; ./shortcut.lnk
[10:43] <pooki> Gnea: I installed Ubuntu but the internet is not working. Presumably the wifi is not being recognized. I've played aroung with network manager but it doesn't make it work.
[10:43] <theadmin> madjoe: o_O
[10:43] <jrib> madjoe: that doesn't do what you want...
[10:44] <guest> wont pressing etc during boot take me to the kernel selection screen switchgirl ?
[10:44] <Gnea> guest: try booting it without the 'quiet splash' flags on
[10:44] <madjoe> jrib: I've been suggested on #bash
[10:44] <guest> ahh okay gnea, whys that ?
[10:44] <switchgirl> yes thats what you want
[10:44] <Gnea> guest: so we can help you fix the problem?
[10:44] <guest> oh
[10:44] <Gnea> ::
[10:44] <flikker123> suck my dick lady
[10:44] <Gnea> :P
[10:44] <switchgirl> xangua: http://live.gnome.org/RhythmboxPlugins/ThirdParty
[10:44] <jrib> madjoe: I understand, but you can't use that to move files, and you can't use it with cd.  It's about the same as having an alias
[10:44] <guest> but what willit do ?
[10:44] <mikekelly> is there a reason that apache2 would keep redirecting requests to localhost when I've setup new entries in /etc/hosts ?
[10:45] <mikekelly> is that a default setting?
[10:45] <guest> i'll come back and i'll go away and try your suggestions
[10:45] <guest> thanks guys and gals
[10:46] <Gnea> pooki: are you familiar with pastebin?
[10:46] <madjoe> jrib: yes, I just tested it... bummer.
[10:46] <switchgirl> Gnea: yeah
[10:46] <Gnea> guest: sometimes you just have to try it to see what it will do
[10:46] <pooki> Gnea: Yes.
[10:46] <Gnea> switchgirl: ?
[10:46] <switchgirl> Gnea: live cd me thinks
[10:47] <switchgirl> tab fail
[10:47] <Gnea> oh lol
[10:47] <pooki> if internet doesnt work what to do and how to things in ubuntu?
[10:47] <theadmin> ...the hell? Openoffice types in all caps while caps-lock is off
[10:48] <Gnea> pooki: can you plug an ethernet cord into it for now?
[10:48] <Gnea> theadmin: you've been paperclipped?
[10:48] <pooki> that is prob I can't
[10:48] <theadmin> Gnea: What?
[10:49] <Gnea> theadmin: joke.
[10:49] <Gnea> haven't had that happen before
[10:49] <pooki> but tell me what I can do with net connection to make wifi work
[10:49] <theadmin> seems like some font problem... hm...
[10:49] <Gnea> pooki: why can't you?
[10:49] <Gnea> who doesn't keep spare ethernet around?
[10:50] <AbortD> pooki, whats your wifi card
[10:50] <pooki> computer in another room, ethernet in another.
[10:50] <theadmin> Gnea: Those people who don't have one.
[10:50] <Gnea> pooki: so take it to the other room?
[10:50] <AbortD> only choice
[10:50] <pooki> Gnea: what's the point of wifi then? defeats the entire point.
[10:50] <theadmin> Ugh. Too many messages, my head starts to hurt o_O
[10:50] <AbortD> no it doesnt
[10:50] <AbortD> pooki, you need the package to fix it
[10:51] <AbortD> and that package is in the repos
[10:51] <AbortD> and you have to download that package
[10:51] <Gnea> pooki: you miss the point: sometimes you need ethernet to get wireless to work.
[10:51] <pooki> which package? if its solution then it might be worth the effort.
[10:51] <Gnea> pooki: I suggested it in order to help you get wireless working faster.
[10:51] <Gnea> but, you seem to want to take longer
[10:52] <AbortD> karmic generic packages
[10:52] <indus> hi guys
[10:53] <pooki> i install ubuntu thru wubi
[10:53] <n1b> sometimes on startup my mouse pointer is jerky when i move it. i have to reboot to solve it, any insight people?
[10:54] <Gnea> pooki: alright, so wireless works fine in windows then, right?
[10:54] <pooki> yes
[10:54] <Gnea> pooki: when you are booted into ubuntu, are you able to read/write to your windows filesystem?
[10:55] <pooki> Gnea: Yes
[10:55] <indus> anyone know why a cpu fan runs too fast?
[10:55] <trinikrono> n1b: buy a new mouse?
[10:56] <Gnea> pooki: good. what you'll need to do then is gather some information from within ubuntu, transfer it to the windows side of the system, reboot to windows and then export the information to pastebin. make sense so far?
[10:56] <jasonmchristos> if i seperate my home partition from root how much space should i allocate for the root filesystem to adequatly hold ubuntu on my laptop
[10:56] <pooki> Gnea: Yes.
[10:57] <Gnea> pooki: one moment...
[10:57] <kubanc> hellow. Every time i would like to burn image with k3b program and i try verify written data, i get warning that data on CD is different then the data in image. here are my messages that i get from k3b http://pastebin.com/qFQrTDEy
[10:57] <n1b> trinikrono: its a labtop
[10:57] <jasonmchristos> kubanc: reburn it
[10:57] <trinikrono> n1b: try a usb mouse
[10:57] <trinikrono> see if its the pointer itself
[10:58] <Gnea> pooki: btw, is the wireless built into the system or is it a card you plug in?
[10:58] <pooki> wifi is built into mobo
[10:58] <Gnea> ok
[10:58] <n1b> trinikrono: have one tried it .! no luck!
[10:58] <kubanc> jasonmchristos, what do you mean to say. isn't this CD now useful, because i already written data to it. I also tried it already on 10 CD and no one was with success
[10:59] <trinikrono> n1b: does the keyboard do weird things also
[10:59] <trinikrono> when the mouse is not working
[10:59] <Gnea> pooki: run these commands in a terminal, please:  lspci > myhwinfo.txt && iwconfig >> myhwinfo.txt && dmesg >> myhwinfo.txt

[11:00] <jasonmchristos> if it works fine kubanc but apparentty its burning something a bit different
[11:00] <n1b> trinikrono: not noticed really as i give up and reboot quite early
[11:01] <kubanc> jasonmchristos, yes, i know that, but how can i determine what is wrong. i also tries brasero and k3b and nothing works. is there maybe a problem with buffer?
[11:01] <Gnea> pooki: when you have done that, copy myhwinfo.txt to the windows c:/ somewhere
[11:01] <pooki> wat to do after that..post it into pastebin?

[11:08] <jasonmchristos> try burning it while booting from a live usb stick then you will know its something other than software, check to see if there is ant problems with that specific hardware ( plextor model number ) on a search engine, and try using a different batch of blank cd's it could be bad cd's, if it is not bad cd's and you find no problems listed with your hardware on a search engine then the burner is bad

[11:09] <jofo> Hello. I’ve got a color problem with some mp4 files: faces seem grey, blue water has a muddy color, etc. I encounter the same problem with Totem and VLC. In the file properties, I read Vidéo Codec : H.264 / AVC. Following Synaptic, the package paquet libx 264-67 (x264 video coding library) is installed (a green square besides its name). I have no idea about the way to solve that problem, except by reading those videos under Windows
[11:09] <jofo>  where they work correctly.
[11:10] <guest_007> okay ikonia... http://paste.ubuntu.com/401098/
[11:11] <ikonia> guest_007: can you paste the whole of your /etc/fstab please
[11:11] <guest_007> oh, sorry yeah sure
[11:11] <guest_007> here you go ikonia.... http://paste.ubuntu.com/401100/
[11:12] <kubanc> jasonmchristos, sorry, but your last message i did not understand... it says "kubanc" :S
[11:12] <ikonia> guest_007: move /proc to the last line
[11:12] <jofo> Does anybody have any idea about my color problem?
[11:12] <guest_007> the last line, what will that change ikonia ?
[11:13] <jasonmchristos> kubanc: try burning it while booting from a live usb stick then you will know its something other than software, check to see if there is ant problems with that specific hardware ( plextor model number ) on a search engine, and try using a different batch of blank cd's it could be bad cd's, if it is not bad cd's and you find no problems listed with your hardware on a search engine then the burner is bad
[11:13] <ikonia> guest_007: it will make /proc get mouinted after root
[11:13] <guest_007> ahh so will that fix it you think ?
[11:13] <ikonia> hope so
[11:14] <guest_007> okay brilliant thanks for your help
[11:14] <guest_007> i'll give it a try :)
[11:14] <arand> jofo: have a look at the clolour balance settings in totem, they might've become skewed.
[11:14] <sleepy_cat> can someone give me a community for Dot net

[11:20] <yuurei> super merci
[11:20] <leagris> jofo, in vlc go to menu Tools/Preferences. Select Video icon on the left, and on Display groupe at Ooutput field, select Opengl video output instead of X11 video output
[11:20] <ayam_jago> oui
[11:21] <ayam_jago> !ping
[11:21] <znh> !ping
[11:21] <leagris> jofo, the save, quit vlc and try again with the video causing color swap
[11:21] <znh> ayam_jago, seems ubottu ignores me to death
[11:22] <gotttoI> znh, he gets bored easy
[11:22] <znh> I see
[11:22] <leagris> jofo, my guess are some codecs/nvidia X video are buggy in ubuntu64 and as nvidia is proprietary binary blob, no one will really care to fix it.
[11:23] <ayam_jago> i use NVidia Fx5500 on Ubuntu32
[11:24] <maciejb> hey. does anyone know if there is a way to freeze the view in top (the task viewer?). many thanks for help in advance
[11:25] <gotttoI> maciejb: q will do it
[11:26] <abhi_nav> gotttoI what is 'q'?
[11:26] <gotttoI> abhi_nav: the   "q"   button
[11:26] <maciejb> gotttoI, true. that's a solution.
[11:26] <abhi_nav> gotttoI you people are talking about what? where is q button?
[11:27] <gotttoI> hehe
[11:27] <leagris> abhi_nav, q is an omnipotent proto god creature wandering space and annoying Picard and Janeway with is infantile powers ;d
[11:27] <jofo> leagris: Now, the colors are better, but the image is choppy.
[11:27] <abhi_nav> ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[11:27] <abhi_nav> ?
[11:27] <abhi_nav> leagris: :D
[11:29] <osiride> ?list
[11:29] <osiride> list
[11:29] <leagris> abhi_nav, seriously, hitting q in top will leave and show latest top status
[11:30] <Dr_Willis> q - works in a great manyh programs that work like top also.
[11:30] <Jimi_Neutral> does anyon here use gadmin-proftpd???
[11:31] <dabukalam> I'm getting an error when installing mysql-server-5.0: "subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 1" anyone know what that is?

[11:38] <pooki> ok bazhang
[11:42] <scibotic> I've run into the most bizarre problem, I get permission denied when ever I try to modify any files in my home directory.
[11:42] <scibotic> But ls -l shows that the owner is set to my user, and that I should have write access.
[11:43] <gottto> scibotic: try   ls -la   in a terminal to see who owns the files
[11:43] <zamba> can someone tell me how to practically use the 'at' command?
[11:44] <zamba> i see it needs a script, but if i just want to do issue a simple command, like 'iptables -A INPUT -s <some ip> -j ACCEPT' at a certain, i don't really want to create a new script for that
[11:44] <zamba> meaning create a new file and then write the commands
[11:44] <KoluCCi> my config: http://pastebin.com/NnCSmcfn, but as said here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=1812194&postcount=7 all works fine. The same notebook (Toshiba S2400). Where is my fault?
[11:44] <scibotic> gottto, It has my user all over it, and I've done a chown -R just to be sure. Still permission denied.
[11:45] <gottto> scibotic: tried logging out/in?
[11:45] <scibotic> gottto, Restarted etc.
[11:45] <zamba> nevermind, figured it out
[11:46] <gottto> scibotic: what about    chmod +r   ?
[11:47] <hash3g> hi all, i am trying to replace gw to another ip and get error 'either "to" is duplicate or "gw" is a garbage'. where can I be wrong?
[11:48] <scibotic> gottto, I can read, not modify.
[11:48] <gottto> k
[11:48] <scibotic> gottto, chmod a+wrx still returns "permission denied" when I try to modify the file.
[11:48] <KoluCCi> Does anybody has some experience with Xinerama and notebooks?
[11:49] <neresar> как в хубунте зайти по сети на компьютер?
[11:49] <bazhang> neresar, join #ubuntu-ru
[11:49] <gottto> scibotic: the only other thing I can think of is if it a separate partition it might be mounted readonly
[11:50] <KoluCCi> neresar, I'm russian, but I think almost others aren't. Use English please
[11:50] <scibotic> gottto, Nope, same partition.
[11:50] <gottto> k
[11:50] <scibotic> gottto, Like I said, bizarre.
[11:50] <neresar> join #ubuntu-ru
[11:50] <emcxbuntu> do i have to use a other mask for wlan then for the eth to route the internet?
[11:50] <gottto> scibotic: sure is...
[11:50] <bazhang> neresar, /join #ubuntu-ru
[11:51] <dabukalam> I'm getting an error when installing mysql-server-5.0: "subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 1" anyone know what that is?
[11:53] <neresar> where is NETWORK in xubuntu?? i'm trying to see network computer
[11:54] <emcxbuntu> use thunar
[11:54] <neresar> what is it?
[11:55] <neresar> file manager?
[11:55] <scibotic> gottto, One sec, I have a weird mount attached to the home directory, looks like ecryptfs might be messing with it.
[11:55] <emcxbuntu> yes
[11:55] <KoluCCi> neresar, file manager, like Explorer in MS Win
[11:55] <neresar> sudo apt-get install thunar?
[11:55] <KoluCCi> neresar, it should be installed by default
[11:56] <neresar> 0_o
[11:56] <hash3g> as I know thunar does not support networking
[11:56] <Jimi_Neutral> how do i completley remove all trace of a fodler off my system
[11:57] <Jimi_Neutral> i need to remove proftpd and do a clean install but when i do remove proftpd the folder is still in etc/
[11:58] <neresar> as i know all "file managers" including MC not support networking
[11:58] <live-linux> hello
[11:58] <un|matrix> is there an opensource alternative for this software? http://www.data-recovery-linux.com/
[11:58] <scibotic> gottto, Okay that fixed it.
[11:58] <SmartSsa> Jimi_Neutral: you need to 'purge' on remove. if you're using command line, apt-get remove --purge proftpd
[11:58] <tiina> hi anyone here who help me with installation of Bank-ID on Ubuntu 9.10
[11:58] <gottto> scibotic: well done :)
[11:59] <neresar> can anybody help with network?
[11:59] <scibotic> gottto, After seven years of Debian SID, you kinda get use to this stuff happening.
[11:59] <dAlfa89_> Jimi_Neutral, you can use Shred to permanently remove folders and files, though I haven't used it myself http://linux.about.com/library/cmd/blcmdl1_shred.htm
[11:59] <gottto> hehe
[11:59] <Jimi_Neutral> SmartSsa, ok it said it is not installed so it is not removed
[11:59] <Jimi_Neutral> SmartSsa, but the directory is there cause i am looking at it
[12:00] <SmartSsa> Jimi_Neutral: then feel free to remove the directory yourself. you can use 'rm' to remove files and 'rmdir' to remove directories.
[12:00] <scibotic> gottto, Thank you for the help, wouldn't have caught that mount if you didn't mention it.
[12:01] <Jimi_Neutral> SmartSsa, this is my point...rm isnt working and neither is rmdir
[12:01] <gottto> scibotic: np
[12:01] <neresar> in windows "\\bla-bla-bla", in linux "smb://bla-bla-bla" but it doesn't work
[12:01] <SmartSsa> Jimi_Neutral: using sudo?
[12:01] <Jimi_Neutral> SmartSsa, trying to move to trash isnt highlighted and yea using sudo too
[12:02] <Jimi_Neutral> SmartSsa, it is in /etc
[12:02] <Guest59900> 难道你们是
[12:02] <neresar> does xubuntu supports NETWORK?
[12:02] <bazhang> !cn | Guest59900
[12:02] <erUSUL> Jimi_Neutral: to remove configuration files when you remove a progam use aptitude purge instead of aptitude remove (apt-get has purge to so does synaptic)
[12:02] <gurulenin> hello
[12:03] <erUSUL> neresar: what type of network ?
[12:03] <neresar> local network
[12:03] <Jimi_Neutral> erUSUL, i just did sudo apt-get --purge profptd and it did not work
[12:03] <erUSUL> neresar: of course

[12:16] <pooki> no it had lspci in it
[12:16] <Jimi_Neutral> quietone, ok i am removing the files from within it but it still wont let me remove the directory itself
[12:16] <sqwertle> Jimi_Neutral: rm -rf /dir
[12:16] <quietone> Jimi_Neutral: ouch. i was about to say that is what I would do.
[12:16] <sqwertle> or wait
[12:17] <bazhang> pooki, for nic? then lspci or lsusb if its usb
[12:17] <erUSUL> l053R: what steps you followed to chroot ?

[12:17] <manish> please any one tell me  ho to use web cam in linux

[12:17] <bazhang> manish, ultimate is not supported here, as was mentioned
[12:17] <sqwertle> manish: It may be automatically supported, try cheese
[12:17] <quietone> Jimi_Neutral: so it is </etc/proftpd> you are trying to delete and there are no files or directories in it any more?

[12:28] <WhiteDawn> lotharreeger: go to channel #ubuntu+1 for 10.04 info, but if you deleted the partition dont hope for too much
[12:28] <quietone> Jimi_Neutral: i am using 9.10 and that is the version (1.3.2-3) in synaptic.
[12:28] <pooki> now wat to do
[12:28] <erUSUL> pooki: :/ it only shows the wired ethernet controller ... no the wifi chip. can you paste the entire lspci ouput? sorry you have to reboot twice :S
[12:29] <erUSUL> !lucid | lotharreeger
[12:29] <l053R> erUSUL, WhiteDawn: i'm deploying a non-persistent live-like system and need grub to boot it. at the moment I'm running off a LiveCD and grub can't find the partition to install itself to. Having followed http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351, I get stuck at "find /boot/grub/stage1", hence why following the latter advice from the same guide...
[12:29] <Jimi_Neutral> quietone, what...basic?
[12:29] <tabasku> does anyone know how well nvidia fx5000 series will work with ubuntu?
[12:29] <pooki> wat to put into terminal
[12:29] <pooki> just lspci
[12:29] <pooki> ?
[12:29] <erUSUL> l053R: is a karmic system ? becouse grub2 does not have /boot/grub/stage1 iirc
[12:29] <erUSUL> pooki: yes
[12:29] <iceroot> pooki: if you want to run lspci, yes
[12:30] <erUSUL> !grub2 | l053R
[12:30] <quietone> Jimi_Neutral: system->Admin->synaptic then search for proftp and look at the choices available. is what you want there?
[12:30] <Jimi_Neutral> quietone, well proftpd'basic is and the gadmin that i want
[12:30] <dj_segfault> Anyone know what app-install-data-commercial is?
[12:31] <erUSUL> !info app-install-data-commercial
[12:32] <madjoe> does anyone use autotab plugin for gEdit? I have a strange error: DeprecationWarning: use gtk.Statusbar.remove_message
[12:32] <mikem> hi, i'd like to install rsnapshot, but I notice it pulls in sshd (openssh-server) as a dependency. is it possible to prevent Ubuntu from installing this? I'm on a laptop and I don't want openssh-server installed
[12:32] <Jork> i tired mpyler but it is even slower than vlc
[12:32] <daveonearth> this irc channel is what makes people think ubuntu is too complicated !
[12:32] <daveonearth> :)
[12:32] <quietone> Jimi_Neutral: i'm confused. you want gadmin-proftpd but not proftp-basic?
[12:32] <mikem> madjoe: that's not an error, that's a warning. nothing to worry about
[12:32] <pooki> erUSUL> http://pastebin.com/yPBWcW2W
[12:32] <WhiteDawn>  Jork: what are your specs? like processor speed?
[12:32] <dj_segfault> erUSUL: I already read the package description, but that doesn't tell me what it really is.  It might as well just say "stuff".
[12:32] <Jork> I change vo_driver to xv but stil doest work for me
[12:32] <madjoe> mikem: ok, so should I just ignore it
[12:33] <Jimi_Neutral> quietone, i was just following the tut and it said proftpd not proftpd-basic
[12:33] <dabukalam> I'm getting an error when installing mysql-server-5.0: "subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 1" anyone know what that is?
[12:33] <Jork> proc speed is intel dualcore 2.0Gb and 3Gb of ram and Nvidia 8400Gs
[12:33] <mikem> madjoe: yep. it just means the software is using an API which will go away some time in the future. the developers will have fixed the issue by then
[12:33] <Jimi_Neutral> quietone, it is a video one
[12:33] <madjoe> mikem: sweet
[12:33] <erUSUL> mikem: sudo aptitude install -R rsnapshot
[12:33] <WhiteDawn> Jork: hmm, should be fast enough....
[12:33] <dj_segfault> mikem: Can you just have sshd not run?
[12:34] <mikem> dj_segfault: I guess so. it kind of makes me nervous, though :) I was hoping there's a way I can tell Ubuntu to ignore this particular dependency
[12:34] <Jork> and sound is slower than picture
[12:34] <pooki> so to install wifi support what to do?
[12:34] <Jork> it is strange
[12:34] <mikem> erUSUL: I'll give -R a shot... thanks
[12:34] <l053R> erUSUL, WhiteDawn: i'm deploying a non-persistent live-like system and need grub to boot it. at the moment I'm running off a LiveCD and grub can't find the partition to install itself to. Having followed http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351, I get stuck at "find /boot/grub/stage1", hence why following the latter advice from the same guide... - SORRY - my network has dropped...
[12:35] <erUSUL> pooki: the device does not appear there... are you sure it is a pci device ?????
[12:35] <pooki> erUSUL > The wifi card is built into the mobo...I dunno if dats PCI or not
[12:35] <quietone> Jimi_Neutral: i'd take them to mean the same thing and follow the tut.
[12:35] <mikem> erUSUL: that did it, thanks :)
[12:35] <erUSUL> l053R: that guide is for grub1 i pressume. karmic uses grub2
[12:35] <mikem> by the way, what's the difference between apt-get and aptitude?
[12:35] <erUSUL> !grub2 | l053R
[12:35] <WhiteDawn> l053R: you need a partition, and you need to mount it, its not finding the /boot/ partition
[12:36] <l053R> pooki: it should be pci regardless...
[12:36] <sadf> hey where i can write my problem and that i give you a link
[12:36] <abhi_nav> !aptitude
[12:36] <anubis> anyone know a good method for minimzing when playing full screen games?
[12:36] <abhi_nav> !apt-get
[12:36] <erUSUL> pooki: well maybe it is connected via usb. can you paste « lsusb » output ? or better « sudo lshw -C Network »
[12:37] <WhiteDawn> Jork: http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/dload.html download and install the binary codecs, matroska isnt foss
[12:37] <WhiteDawn> !aptitude
[12:37] <Jork> thnx WhiteDawn
[12:38] <pooki> OKAY
[12:38] <Slart> !pastebin | sadf
[12:38] <l053R> WhiteDawn: makes sense... i'll go play around a little more then... just to make sure we're on the same page, ext3 will not cut it and i need to mount a boot partition. is there a particular type (hex code) i should make such partition using fdisk, or can i just flag it as bootable?
[12:38] <Jimi_Neutral> quietone, ok you are using it yeah? I have just follwed that tut to the letter, it is all installed and i have made up a usr and pass doing the random buttons, saved everything and the thing wont activate
[12:38] <Jimi_Neutral> quietone, i press the button and it doesnt activate
[12:38] <sadf> thnx
[12:39] <WhiteDawn> l053R: just flag it as bootable, I allways use ext2 for my boot partition and it seems to allways work. Doesn't need complicated filesystem for just a couple of mb
[12:39] <l053R> erUSUL, WhiteDawn: THANKS!
[12:39] <WhiteDawn> l053R: also, in older versions of grub, the boot partition needs to be the first parition on hte drive
[12:40] <l053R> WhiteDawn: thanks... you've been very helpful!
[12:40] <quietone> Jimi_Neutral: sorry but I don't use proftpd. but I am curious, what do you expect to see when it activates?
[12:40] <WhiteDawn> haha no problem
[12:40] <Jimi_Neutral> quietone, the word on the right that says 'deactivated' change to 'activated' like it does on the video
[12:41] <pooki> erUSUL > http://pastebin.com/Qz6BanFw
[12:43] <pooki> I think I found the wifi card
[12:43] <pooki> MCP77 Ethernet > How to install?
[12:43] <Dolp> I accidently removed the recycling bin from the lower right corner, how do i put it in?
[12:43] <quietone> Jimi_Neutral: Maybe look for error msgs in the logs or web search
[12:44] <WhiteDawn> pooki: Ethernet could mean its your wired not wireless
[12:44] <abhi_nav> Dolp right click on it add to pane and add trash
[12:44] <WhiteDawn> Dolp: you can also empty recycle bin from the file browser
[12:44] <pooki> then why not LSPCI show the wifi card
[12:44] <Dolp> abhi_nav it's not there
[12:45] <Dolp> wait
[12:45] <Dolp> got it
[12:45] <Dolp> thx
[12:45] <abhi_nav> Dolp it is there. hmmmmmmmmmm
[12:45] <WhiteDawn> pooki: whats the name of your card? is it usb?
[12:45] <vinu> is there any video converter for all formats
[12:46] <Kalisto> what should i look into if I want simple voice activation. for example I sag: "computer! Shut Down!" and my machine shuts down?
[12:46] <pooki> I dont think its USB. It's built onto the mobo..I dont have its name..lspci doesn't show anything either.
[12:46] <Kalisto> pre defined voice commands do pre defined things, I dont need advanced speech to text though
[12:46] <WhiteDawn> pooki: whats the motherboard?
[12:47] <abhi_nav> vinu: yes
[12:47] <perlsyntax> How do i remove the gnome-panel so i can have just awn-manger on my desktop?
[12:47] <WhiteDawn> vinu: http://handbrake.fr/
[12:48] <abhi_nav> perlsyntax: right click on panel=>delete this panel
[12:48] <pooki> whitedawn > http://pastebin.com/LAhz96de
[12:48] <Kalisto> is Gnome-Voice-Control any good?
[12:48] <perlsyntax> it won't work
[12:48] <perlsyntax> do i remove it in my apt-get?
[12:49] <abhi_nav> perlsyntax: wont work means? the option is there or not?
[12:49] <WhiteDawn> pooki: what is the name of your motherboard, a wireless card isnt in that list
[12:49] <Lord_Of_Computin> Hello, can someone please explain why a USB modem device would get registered with three device names? ttyUSB[0-2]
[12:49] <pooki> whitedawn> I dont know name of mobo...how to find out?
[12:49] <perlsyntax> no option
[12:50] <abhi_nav> perlsyntax: i said right click on PANEL you are clickin on panel? right click?
[12:50] <perlsyntax> yes
[12:50] <abhi_nav> >
[12:50] <abhi_nav> ?
[12:50] <WhiteDawn> pooki: can u upload your full lspci? type this in terminal "lspci &> log.log" then open log.log with a texteditor and paste it in pastebin
[12:50] <abhi_nav> perlsyntax: hmmmmmmmm...........dont know then
[12:50] <pooki> perlsyntax> U need to add "killall gnome-panel" to the startup list of your session
[12:51] <pooki> WhiteDawn> What I showed u was the full lspci
[12:51] <pooki> this one: http://pastebin.com/LAhz96de
[12:51] <tarelerulz> How would you find out if you have  bluetooth on a computer?
[12:52] <WhiteDawn> pooki: if you sent your lspci send again, my net just went down for a bit
[12:52] <abhi_nav> ?
[12:52] <abhi_nav> How would you find out if a cow milks or not?
[12:52] <pooki> ttp://pastebin.com/LAhz96de
[12:52] <pooki> http://pastebin.com/LAhz96de
[12:52] <abhi_nav> :P :D :)
[12:52] <perlsyntax> pooki,How do i do that?
[12:53] <perlsyntax> i see
[12:53] <WhiteDawn> pooki: can u upload your full lspci? type this in terminal "lspci &> log.log" then open log.log with a texteditor and paste it in pastebin
[12:53] <abhi_nav> tarelerulz: do you have a branded pc?
[12:53] <tarelerulz> yes
[12:53] <tarelerulz> hp
[12:54] <abhi_nav> tarelerulz: which one? on their web site they have full description of your computer. each and every section is covered
[12:54] <WhiteDawn> pooki: ah never mind, you can check motherboard name by looking at the physical motherboard, it's usualy written on it
[12:54] <pooki> WhiteDawn> Did you have a look at the pastebin link I posted? It is the full LSPCI result, I believe
[12:54]  * Lord_Of_Computin ping
[12:54]  * Jaunty is back (gone 00:50:40)
[12:54] <abhi_nav> !away > Jaunty
[12:54] <perlsyntax> pooki?
[12:55] <WhiteDawn> pooki: if your on a laptop/store bought computer, the model name and brand helps too
[12:55] <daveonearth> someone please point me to the south african ubuntu channel
[12:55] <jasonmchristos> does anyone know if there are any advantages to making a /boot partition when planning on installing multiple releases of ubuntu on my laptop?
[12:55] <pooki> perlsyntax> Have a look here http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/2740/ubuntu_add_applications_to_startup_programs/
[12:56] <pooki> In the command section, put in "killall gnome-panel"
[12:56] <tarelerulz> Maybe this is dumb ,but you have wireless card /wifi card  can you use that to network two laptop with out a route?  So you could say share files
[12:56] <pooki> WhiteDawn> It's a custom PC
[12:56] <WhiteDawn> jasonmchristos: you can access the boot parition from all releases and its not dependant on a ubuntu partition so you can delete them without worry for boot
[12:56] <WhiteDawn> pooki: allright, just open it up, usualy the name is silkscreened on
[12:57] <elb0w> So after I select Node form install the screen just dissappears
[12:57] <elb0w> And stays blue
[12:57] <elb0w> and I can type in the gray bar
[12:57] <elb0w> I installed 3 times with this cd yesterday
[12:57] <abhi_nav> tarelerulz: there are two documents for each model of hp compuer namely "Safety and confort guide" and "Maintenance and service guide" you can take their address for call center or search google
[12:57] <perlsyntax> i see  where that is
[12:58] <WhiteDawn> elb0w: did you leave the cd near a window?
[12:58] <abhi_nav> tareleruz: yes we can do that. it is called as ado-hoc network
[12:58] <abhi_nav> !ad-hoc
[12:58] <tarelerulz> Well, I have no idea where the books are
[12:58] <abhi_nav> ohhh
[12:58] <jasonmchristos> WhiteDawn: so lets ssay  i install ubuntu without a boot partition then install kubuntu alongside if i remove ubuntu it will break kubuntu nless i have a /boot is that correct?
[12:58] <Vroomfondle> jasonmchristos: why would you install them separately?
[12:58] <WhiteDawn> jasonmchristos: yes, if boot partion is excluded from both systems then you can delete etheir or without having to worry bout grub or having to reconfigure it
[12:58] <Vroomfondle> they can both co-exist within the same OS.
[12:58] <tarelerulz> You guys rock. I no idea what it was called. I understand networking some ,but  sometimes you need the right word to use google
[12:59] <pooki> WhiteDawn I dont want to do that. Is there any alternative
[12:59] <abhi_nav> tarelerulz: see this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Adhoc
[12:59] <WhiteDawn> pooki: if you built your own computer you should be comferatable removing hte side pannel :P
[12:59] <abhi_nav> tarelerulz: yes we can do that. it is called as ado-hoc network
[12:59] <abhi_nav> tarelerulz: ad-hoc*
[12:59] <jasonmchristos> WhiteDawn: that answer confused me , so you are saying that there is no need for a /boot part?
[13:00] <BluesKaj> Howdy
[13:00] <WhiteDawn> jasonmchristos: its good to have one, it would be exclusive. What you do to the operating systems (whether that is deleting them or moving them) you will still have functioning boot
[13:00]  * Jaunty is away: Estou ocupado
[13:00] <abhi_nav> tarelerulz: you got my messages?
[13:00] <dabukalam> I'm getting an error when installing mysql-server-5.0: "subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 1" anyone know what that is?
[13:01] <pooki> WhiteDawn> Actually someone made it for me according to my guidelines. :>
[13:01] <jasonmchristos> Vroomfondle: i can install kubuntu on top of my existing ubuntu, how just by synaptic?
[13:01] <Q_Continuum> I'd rather not install the nVidia binary drivers - Dell Inspiron E1505 with GeForce Go 7200 - but want to enable secondary display (not as mirrored), running 9.10.
[13:01] <abhi_nav> jasonmchristos: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[13:01] <bazhang> jasonmchristos, the package kubuntu-desktop
[13:01] <dabukalam> Vroomfondle: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[13:02] <dabukalam> okay, beaten to it
[13:02] <WhiteDawn> pooki: ah i see :P. Well hopefully they didn't rip you off by saying there is wifi when htere isn't :P. Ill look for a way to name your motherboard
[13:02] <jasonmchristos> WhiteDawn: what will be stored on /boot , grub? im not understanding the advantage
[13:02] <LekeFly> Is it possible to have several machines back up via time machine? via a NAS server..
[13:03] <pooki> WhiteDawn> I found a way
[13:03] <pooki> already...I'll post the results
[13:03] <jasonmchristos> ok gys ill do that for kubuntu but i think ubuntu studio will need a seperate partition
[13:03] <WhiteDawn> jasonmchristos: grub will be in the /boot/ partition. If you delete ubuntu/kubuntu it wont affect the /boot/ partition so grub will still function normaly
[13:04] <PuffTheMagicDRGN> A presto!
[13:04] <jasonmchristos> WhiteDawn: but the only other option is that Grub is on the MBR and eleting other os wont affect this anyway right?
[13:04] <bazhang> jasonmchristos, the package ubuntustudio-desktop will install it
[13:04] <WhiteDawn> jasonmchristos: grub is on the mbr, but what configures grub is located in the /boot/ folder, without it, it wont work properly
[13:04] <jasonmchristos> bazhang: but studio needs seperate kernal and special tweaks to the audio software
[13:04] <BluesKaj> Howdy
[13:04] <DarkStar1> any tightvnc users here by any chance?
[13:05] <rokovnik> hi, is there tool in ubuntu like system-config-network in Centos?
[13:05] <jasonmchristos> ok ill just make a /boot to be safe do i need to point every install to that same partition as i would /home
[13:05] <abhi_nav> rokovnik: what you want to do?
[13:06] <rokovnik> configure network through text mode gui
[13:06] <WhiteDawn> pookie: put a : at end of my name not a >, that way my client highlights your line and i notice it quicker
[13:06] <Jimi_Neutral> does anyone here use proftpd because i cannot connect to this damn box and i have followed a tut to the letter
[13:06] <Jimi_Neutral> really need some help on this cause im about to go mad
[13:06] <WhiteDawn> jasonmchristos: I am not sure, but it doesn't hurt if you do, then you can configure grub from any distro
[13:07] <jasonmchristos> WhiteDawn: thanks

[13:08] <sethdemuerte> hello
[13:08] <WhiteDawn> jasonmchristos: I allways used ext2 because its legacy and probraly easier to use for a simple program like grub. That is my oppinion though, never tried any other filesystem
[13:08] <xangua> !hi | sethdemuerte
[13:09] <sethdemuerte> can somebody please help me with ubuntu 9.10 netbook remix?
[13:10] <sethdemuerte> hello xangua
[13:10] <sethdemuerte> i am new here
[13:10] <WhiteDawn> pooki: nice output there, sadly it doesn't say anything about wireless or the name of your motherbord :<
[13:10] <elb0w> WhiteDawn, it was on my desk
[13:10] <elb0w> It was less than 24hours ago
[13:10] <elb0w> that I used it
[13:11] <WhiteDawn> elb0w: just a long shot, i was just sugesting that maybe some uv-rays destroyed some data, happend to me before
[13:11] <sethdemuerte> hello?
[13:11] <pooki> WhiteDawn: how can that be...I've tried lspci, lsusb and many other commands...
[13:11] <elb0w> Cant see that happening but ill reburn and see

[13:14] <Knofensa> Hi guys. I got a question... :) I want to mount my HDD. I'm currently on a Ubuntu Feisty Fawn Live-CD. Can somebody show me how?
[13:14] <AgenteD> #ubuntu-br
[13:15] <WhiteDawn> Konfensa: system/administration/diskutility will let you mount that easily
[13:15] <pooki> WhiteDawn: what is the motherboard's name going to help with?
[13:15] <WhiteDawn> pooki: finding drivers, or if anyone else allready had your problem and found a fix
[13:17] <Bulldog\\> Anyone here with experience in booting ubuntu from an USB on a Lenovo ThinkPad X61 Tablet?
[13:17] <Knofensa> WhiteDawn I think there's nothing like that on Feisty Fawn :( At least I can't find anything. My friend said that you need to do that over the Terminal, but I have no clue how to :(
[13:17] <pooki> WhiteDawn: That's fine, this is too much trouble FWIW. Thanks a lot for your help and have a good day.
[13:17] <Tobarja> since i switched to ubuntu for one of my servers, every time i open screen, my putty window resizes itself. any ideas what's causing that?
[13:18] <abhi_nav> !mount
[13:18] <howlymowly> hi poeple...   i just resized my root partition..  but for some reason ubuntu does still only recognize the "old " size of the partition..  how can I force ubuntu to run a disk check at next start up?
[13:18] <DarthPuff> hey there, how do i echo the output of a command into a text file?
[13:19] <Knofensa> abhi_nav thanks! I'll take a look
[13:19] <abhi_nav> howlymowly: fsck
[13:19] <abhi_nav> Knofensa: :D
[13:19] <klappi> DarthPuff, > and >>
[13:19] <mikeconcepts> is there a beta for ubuntu netbook remix such that we may experience the fruits of 10.4 now?
[13:19] <howlymowly> abhi_nav:  I can not use fsck on a running system abhi_nav... it says "Running e2fsck on a mounted filesystem may cause
[13:19] <howlymowly> SEVERE filesystem damage."
[13:20] <WhiteDawn> Knofensa: yeah you need to run mount, "man mount" will give you a bassis. Learning by yourself would give you more experience, but if you have trouble don't be afraid to ask
[13:20] <DarthPuff> klappi: so i would type ls -R >> index.txt?
[13:20] <abhi_nav> howlymowly: hmm
[13:21] <DarthPuff> klappi: i think i use one > in this case

[13:21] <ctmiller> good morning, all.
[13:26] <Slart> holmser: sudo touch /forcefsck   should do it
[13:26] <nhak> hi, what is the command to count the number of files in a directory ?
[13:27] <n1b> Tetracomm: you should check launchpad as they introduced power-saving into the kernel for alsa i think!..and for a few its buggy
[13:27] <Slart> nhak: ls | wc -l    might work..
[13:27] <meganerd> nhak: ls -a |wc -l
[13:27] <Tetracomm> n1b: Ok, could you help me through this? I don't really know what i'm doing.

[13:28] <daveonearth> i am trying to find out why mark shuttleworths 10 million pound attempt to market here failed
[13:28] <daveonearth> does any one know ?
[13:28] <meganerd> nhak: just subtract one from the answer, since the first line is counted and it is not a file
[13:28] <meganerd> daveonearth: where is "here"
[13:28] <Slart> daveonearth: wrong channel.. try #ubuntu-offtopic
[13:28] <daveonearth> Sorry
[13:28] <daveonearth> South africa
[13:28] <Gnea> daveonearth: care to be more specific?
[13:29] <meganerd> daveonearth: no idea
[13:29] <daveonearth> ok thanks
[13:29] <Knofensa> abhi_nav WhiteDawn I'm really sorry..but I still can't get it to work :( My problem is, that I need to move a file from here to my windows system32, but whenever I do that over the normal filesystem browser, It tells me that I don't have permission to write on that /dev/sdb/
[13:30] <abhi_nav> Knofensa change permissions using chown and chmod (dont know much)
[13:30] <quietone> Jimi_Neutral: have you tried www.proftpd.org?  there is a support forum, docs and how-tos there. good night all.
[13:31] <meganerd> Knofensa: is /dev/sdb the hard drive where windows is installed?  If so you probably need to specify the partition number
[13:31] <n1b> Tetracomm: im new to! just a little research ive done while trying to debug my soundcard !
[13:31] <meganerd> Knofensa: "sudo parted /dev/sdb print" should be a good start
[13:32] <Jimi_Neutral> i just give up
[13:32] <Jimi_Neutral> i cant be assed no more
[13:32] <Jimi_Neutral> i didnt sign up for this shit
[13:33] <Knofensa> meganerd yes it is the HDD where windows is installed on! lemme try sudo parted /dev/sdb print
[13:33] <Knofensa> meganerd http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/vdd0fLs5
[13:33] <Knofensa> what does it say here?
[13:34] <Knofensa> I don't get it :(
[13:35] <histo> Knofensa: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[13:35]  * Jaunty is back (gone 00:34:31)
[13:35] <Knofensa> histo feisty fawn live-cd
[13:35] <Knofensa> histo i still had that one lying around..
[13:36] <histo> Knofensa: I believe feisty used to mount windows partitions as read only
[13:36] <DarkStar1> where does ~/ translate to?
[13:36] <histo> !ntfs-3g | Knofensa
[13:36] <DarkStar1> anyone?
[13:36] <Knofensa> histo can i read/write with that?
[13:36] <joshua__> anyone know how I fix a "Device not Managed" for my wireless network?
[13:37] <histo> DarkStar1: /home/DarkStar1
[13:37] <Knofensa> histo i did this before --> sudo apt-get install ntfs-config but it said it doesnt find the package
[13:37] <histo> DarkStar1: ~ just means /home/username
[13:37] <meganerd> Knofensa: /dev/sdb1 is the windows partition.
[13:37] <DarkStar1> histo: thanks
[13:37] <linus> how to work with semaphores?????
[13:37] <linus> in linux
[13:37] <linus> kernel
[13:37] <jefferson_maran> hi,  how  i install the drivers the eeepc 701 into the remix 9.10 ubuntu?
[13:37] <histo> !info ntfs-config feisty | Knofensa
[13:37] <meganerd> Knofensa: like someone else mentioned, you should have ntfs-3g installed and you should be able to read and write directly to that partition
[13:38] <histo> meganerd: Knofensa he may not have it installed on feisty
[13:38] <Knofensa> meganerd if its no problem could you help me install it? i totally have no clue how
[13:38] <meganerd> feisty?  wow that is old
[13:38] <abhi_nav> linus: what is semaphores? I used to know it before but now forgot
[13:38] <wyzryyn> hi how can i change characters coding (utf-8 to another) in text mode console ?
[13:38] <linus> hey...its used for IPC
[13:38] <abhi_nav> Knofensa: but why you dont use latest version?
[13:39] <abhi_nav> linus: now what is IPC?
[13:39] <joshua__> anyone know how I fix a "Device not Managed" for my wireless network?
[13:39] <histo> Knofensa: http://www.howtoforge.com/ntfs_3g_ubuntu_feisty
[13:39] <linus> abhi_nav:inter process communication
[13:39] <meganerd> Knofensa: "sudo aptitude install ntfs-3g" should do it
[13:39] <tomusic> hi, one question: My grandma says her laptop is too slow: Vista. Now i want to install Ubuntu, but is it really that easy to use? She's not very good with computers.
[13:39] <abhi_nav> linus: yah
[13:39] <histo> Knofensa: the other option is to use a newer version of ubuntu.
[13:39] <jefferson_maran> how I install the acpi drivers into  eeepc with 9.10 remix version
[13:39] <histo> Knofensa: or you can follow that howto
[13:39] <linus> abhi_nav:i want to know more about it
[13:39] <meganerd> tomusic: try it out with her with the Live CD.  That is what it is for
[13:39] <skydrome> whats the difference between 'sudo -i' and 'sudo -s'?
[13:39] <abhi_nav> linus: google dont help?
[13:40] <histo> Knofensa: basically sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g
[13:40] <tomusic> meganerd: ok... thats an idea. thanks!
[13:40] <histo> Knofensa: and ntfs-config needs to be installed as well.
[13:41] <meganerd> skydrome: man sudo
[13:41] <pablo_> hola
[13:41] <arch0njw> skydrome: man sudo ... -i simulates and -s runs as a shell environment ... and man sudo explains it more.
[13:41] <skydrome> ok ty
[13:41] <arch0njw> !es | pablo_
[13:41] <Knofensa> histo & meganerd it doesnt find those packages..
[13:41] <histo> Knofensa: is the machine on the internet?
[13:41] <Knofensa> yep
[13:42] <abhi_nav> Knofensa: but why you dont use latest version?
[13:42] <Knofensa> and if i try that howto histo, i finds some ntfs stuff but not ntfs-3g
[13:42] <Knofensa> abhi_nav because i cant burn it to a CD-ROM here..
[13:42] <histo> Knofensa: ahh looks like the feisty repos are gone
[13:42] <Knofensa> where can i get the latest live-cd?
[13:43] <meganerd> Knofensa: ubuntu.com
[13:43] <abhi_nav> Knofensa: you can try usb installation
[13:43] <Knofensa> whats that abhi_nav
[13:43] <abhi_nav> Knofensa: you can install ubuntu from usb pen drive
[13:43] <victoria> HOLA
[13:43] <histo> Knofensa: he was saying you can put it on usb and boot from there if you cant burn a cd.
[13:43] <Jaunty> victoria ola
[13:43] <histo> Knofensa: feisty is no longer supported. thats why you are having issues
[13:44] <abhi_nav> Knofensa: yah, you can have iso of latest version, then put it in usb using unetbootin and then you are ready you can boot into liveusb or if want can install ubuntu from there
[13:44] <Knofensa> abhi_nav i dont want to install it. i just want to use it to move one file
[13:44] <ActionParsnip> Yo yo yo
[13:44] <abhi_nav> !unetbootin | Knofensa
[13:44] <histo> Knofensa: then I would download a later version
[13:45] <histo> Knofensa: and just burn a cd.
[13:45] <abhi_nav> knofensa: yah you can use it as exactly that of lice cd
[13:45] <abhi_nav> Knofensa: yah you can use it as exactly that of lice cd
[13:45] <DarkStar1> ANyone here know how to correct the keymap so that the keys typed are correct for tightvnc?
[13:45] <histo> Knofensa: the version you still have laying around was before we had write support for ntfs partitions in linux supported out of the box.
[13:45] <ori> Help. How do I add cd drives to mount images?
[13:45] <Knofensa> abhi_nav histo ive found this 9.10 version..i can use that as live-cd too right?

[13:46] <abhi_nav> Knofensa: yah
[13:46] <Knofensa> okay ill DL it

[13:46] <abhi_nav> Knofensa: :)
[13:46] <Knofensa> ;)
[13:46] <wyzryyn> guys, is that possible to change characters coding (e.g. utf-8 > iso-8859-2) in "text mode" console?
[13:46] <Jimi_Neutral> Ok back to the drawing board....gadmin-proftpd sucks cause the gui doesnt even work. So, does anyone here use an FTP server on an ubuntu box that uses a GUI for administration of it. I need a GUI cause im no good with command line and I need to do a very specific thing...i.e. I need to give a user on our network access to this server but only to one folder. please for the love of everything that is holy help m e so i can get my boss off my back
[13:46] <jakiw> I have problems creating a partition on a Cruzer ScanDrive USB-Stick
[13:46] <histo> Knofensa: 10.04 is the next version due out that will be a LTS  long term support 8.04 was the last LTS.  9.10 is one of the ones in between
[13:46] <efaistos> hi
[13:47] <Knofensa> histo there'll be no problems with 9.10 i guess?
[13:47] <histo> Knofensa: the new version I believe automoutns the drive read/write
[13:47] <abhi_nav> Knofensa: no.
[13:47] <ori> Help. How do I add cd drives to mount .iso images?
[13:47] <abhi_nav> Knofensa: no. problem.
[13:47] <histo> Knofensa: shouldn't be any issues
[13:47] <efaistos> does someone have an issue to boot without GDM ?
[13:47] <DarkStar1> how do I stop gdm?
[13:47] <jakiw> When I say gparted to create a partition I get: /dev/sdb1 conains a mounted file system
[13:47] <histo> ori: put the cd in the drive
[13:47] <Knofensa> so 9.10 does that too right?
[13:47] <efaistos> DarkStar1: /etc/init.d/gdm stop ?
[13:47] <histo> ori: you want to make an iso from a cd or write an iso?
[13:47] <ynk> hi guys! i'm running Karmic on a laptop that has Radeon HD 3200. i could not find a driver for it--the link is broken on the AMD site. am i out of luck?
[13:47] <abhi_nav> Knofensa: yah
[13:47] <histo> Knofensa: yes
[13:47] <dr3mro> please i am a noob in linux and i had past experince years ago to c programing but i want to learn c++ and gtk and i want to chose between to IDEs geany and netbeans ... wheich is most suitable for ubuntu developing gtk apps
[13:48] <Knofensa> alright guys, ill be back later!
[13:48] <histo> ynk: system > admin > hardware drivers
[13:48] <ori> histo: i have an iso
[13:48] <jakiw> When I say gparted to create a partition I get: /dev/sdb1 conains a mounted file system
[13:48] <abhi_nav> dr3mro: i dont use the first one, i used netbeans. so dont know hows that first one
[13:48] <ori> histo: i actually have two,and want them mounted at the same time
[13:48] <efaistos> I have a laptop with an ubuntu on it ... and I cant start it without gdm installed :(
[13:48] <ynk> histo, i've had some bad experiences with going with that method--the screen would turn black for good! but i'll give it another try... :]
[13:48] <efaistos> got a black screen ...
[13:48] <histo> ori: use the loop option
[13:48] <jimcooncat> how to install zimbra desktop on karmic? I tried searching for "zimbra-desktop" and "zdesktop".
[13:49] <ori> histo: whats that?
[13:49] <histo> !ati | ynk
[13:49] <Dehivis> alguien habla español???
[13:49] <histo> ori: you can mount iso's like they are burnt to a disk
[13:49] <abhi_nav> !es | Dehivis
[13:49] <jefferson_maran> yo
[13:49] <ynk> histo, thanks buddy.
[13:49] <histo> ori: sudo mount -o loop isoimage mountpoint
[13:49] <jakiw> how was the programm called u could make bootable USB-Devices with?
[13:50] <efaistos> any idea ?
[13:50] <Christoph^1> Linux has the "Everything is a file"-philosophy. How come network interfaces are no files?
[13:50] <histo> Christoph^1: /etc/network/interfaces
[13:50] <ori> histo: isoimage: No such file or directory
[13:50] <abhi_nav> net......yah network intercaes are files too
[13:50] <histo> Christoph^1: you can configure them there
[13:50] <meganerd> histo: he means the device itself, and it does, just not in /dev
[13:51] <dr3mro> abhi_nav, is it easy to use netbeans to create simple c++ and gtkmm ?? i am not so experinced with GUI programing just old days console programing with C / Basic
[13:51] <histo> ori: no you would do it like this sudo mount -o <nameofisofile> <mountpoint>
[13:51] <jakiw> how was the programm called u could make bootable USB-Devices with?
[13:51] <histo> ori: you specify the name of the iso and the mouwhere you want to mount it.
[13:51] <histo> jakiw: unetbootin?
[13:51] <ori> histo: um... can we do it together? :)
[13:51] <Christoph^1> histo: I mean, device files, such as Sound output is a device file (/dev/audio), hard drives are files (/dev/sda ...), except network interfaces, they only have names.
[13:51] <abhi_nav> dr3mro: I prefer netbeans, codelite and eclipse and for gtk.......dont know never used
[13:51] <meganerd> Christoph^1: what are you trying to do?
[13:51] <arch0njw> !unetbootin | jakiw
[13:52] <meganerd> Christoph^1: you may want to look in /sys
[13:52] <ori> histo: wait, let me see...
[13:52] <Christoph^1> meganerd: I'm trying to understand why "everything is a file" does not apply to network interfaces
[13:52] <meganerd> Christoph^1: read the source code
[13:52] <abhi_nav> Christoph^1: #linux
[13:52] <jakiw> arch0njw, histo no, it was something that was called with a logical name (only words)....u could chose an image and a flash drive
[13:52] <Christoph^1> abhi_nav: ok
[13:52] <Jimi_Neutral> please someone help
[13:52] <abhi_nav> Christoph^1: :D
[13:52] <histo> ori: the mountpoint has to be a directory
[13:53] <linus> abhi_nav: google doesnt help......want to know how it works....any example?
[13:53] <ori> histo: i did this: sudo mount -o loop /home/ori/Desktop/Counter Strike Condition Zero/CS-CZ-CD2.ISO /media/cdrom
[13:53] <abhi_nav> linus: #linux
[13:53] <linus> abhi_nav:??
[13:53] <histo> ori: so you can sudo mkdir /media/whatever   then sudo mount -o loop name_of_iso_file /media/whatever
[13:53] <abhi_nav> linus: join channel #linux by typing /join #linux
[13:53] <arch0njw> jakiw: USB Startup Disk Creator ... use it lots.  very awesome.
[13:53] <histo> ori: okay does the /media/cdrom folder exist?
[13:53] <ori> histo, ok... yea i think so...
[13:53] <histo> ori: also you can just install cs from steam
[13:53] <arch0njw> jakiw: is in the repositories as long as you're on a current release.
[13:54] <jakiw> histo, arch0njw, I want to install Windows from a USB-Stick, because my Optical is broken, and I need windows at school atm
[13:54] <histo> ori: ls /media/   to see if its there and not being used
[13:54] <abhi_nav> this is ubuntu support channel jakiw
[13:54] <meganerd> jakiw: you may not be able to do that
[13:54] <histo> jakiw: /j #windows
[13:54] <histo> jakiw: I believe that violates their EULA but they would know in there.
[13:54] <ori> histo: cdrom  cdrom0
[13:54] <arch0njw> jakiw: WHAT?!  You're asking a Windows question?!  :p  Search around for making a bootable USB from a Windows ISO.  I know little about that, but that would be the general path.
[13:54] <meganerd> jakiw: consider virtualbox if you really need that other OS
[13:54] <ori> histo, cdrom is beingused
[13:55] <histo> ori: okay well make a new folder then
[13:55] <ori> histo, how?
[13:55] <recon69_lap> hi all, just got my HDTV and wondering how to update my x-config to twinscreen. cant save update to config file due to permissions.
[13:55] <histo> ori: sudo mkdir /media/counterstrike
[13:55] <exploreralex> can v make a usb startup disk for linux ubuntu 9.10 server edition?
[13:55] <histo> ori: then do the mount command
[13:55] <jakiw> arch0njw, meganerd, hist, abhi_nav, Ye, but I want to do it from Ubuntu not from Windows, and in #Windows they will tell me how to do it on windows
[13:55] <abhi_nav> exploreralex: yes
[13:55] <ori> histo, which command?
[13:55] <histo> ori: the mount one
[13:55] <jkd4> could anyone tell me how to setup ubuntu with the bottom panal looking somewhat like the one on windows 7? I just want it so the applications I have running are shown as Icons, without names. Anyone know how to do this?
[13:56] <meganerd> jakiw: I have never managed to get it to work
[13:56] <ori> histo, this? sudo mount -o loop /home/ori/Desktop/Counter Strike Condition Zero/CS-CZ-CD2.ISO /media/cdrom
[13:56] <recon69_lap> ori: you could also try out urban terrorist for free :)
[13:56] <arch0njw> jakiw: wait... how are you going to get a Windows ISO if you don't have a working optical drive?
[13:56] <ori> I will after!
[13:56] <abhi_nav> jakiw: you know how to use unetbootin? follow standard procedure. if works, great, if not, you are violation some big big and lots of laws
[13:56] <abhi_nav> jakiw: :P
[13:56] <histo> ori: sudo mkdir /media/counterstrike && sudo mount -o loop /home/ori/Desktop/Counter Strike Condition Zero/CS-CZ-CD2.iso /media/counterstrike
[13:56] <ori> histo, this? sudo mount -o loop /home/ori/Desktop/Counter Strike Condition Zero/CS-CZ-CD2.ISO /media/cdrom
[13:56] <arch0njw> jakiw: if you can manage to get one, then you would still use USB creator to "burn" the ISO to the USB.  In theory, you would then be able to boot from the CD.
[13:57] <jakiw> arch0jw i have a Windows 7 CD from my Laptop, and the drive is broken...there was one
[13:57] <arch0njw> jakiw: gah!  I mean USB.
[13:57] <meganerd> jakiw: even the live windows CDs rarely work, so your best bet is to use Virtualbox until you sort out your cd/dvd drive
[13:57] <abhi_nav> jkd4: you may want to try kubuntu-desktop
[13:57] <ori> histo,it didnt do anything
[13:57] <histo> ori: it didn't give an error?
[13:57] <jkd4> abhi_nav: ok
[13:57] <jakiw> arch0njw Yem but I just saw that formatting doesnt work. Neither gparted nor USB Creator can format it
[13:57] <ori> histo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/401169/ thats everything
[13:57] <jkd4> abhi_nav: thanks. where do I find that?
[13:57] <recon69_lap> how do you start the system->preferances->display to run as admin?
[13:58] <abhi_nav> jkd4: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[13:58] <tomiondrums> hi,
[13:58] <tomiondrums> i've got a nvidia quadro nvs 290 graphics adapter installed in my ubuntu karmic workstation and i can't get dual headed graphics working with it.
[13:58] <tomiondrums> when i try to configure it using the nvidia-settings tool i can't get a resolution beyond 640x480 on my second monitor (both monitors are NEC MultiSync EA221WM).
[13:58] <tomiondrums> i downloaded and installed the 195.36.15 driver for the card but it works as bad as the 185.18.36. configuring the card manually via the xorg.conf doesn't work at all. either xorg doesn't start up or i starts with the second monitor disabled. i've tried nearly everything possible and impossible but i don't come to grips with it...
[13:58] <tomiondrums> maybe the whole problem is related to an EDID-misbehaviour but i can't tell... anyway when i try to get-edid|parse-edid the monitor is not being detected correctly (it says ModelName "AXR:1600" instead of something with "NEC")
[13:58] <tomiondrums> this is my current xorg-log http://pastebin.com/NfVaSMKb
[13:58] <tomiondrums> and this is my current xorg.conf http://pastebin.com/sHnU226m    (this one causes X to start with just the primary display, the secondary is disabled)
[13:58] <FloodBot1> tomiondrums: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:58] <abhi_nav> jkd4: then at the time of login you can choose between gnome and kde.
[13:58] <arch0njw> jakiw: format it what, your USB drive?  that sounds like a diff problem.  I've formatted flash drives before.
[13:58] <abhi_nav> whats this?
[13:58] <abhi_nav> !flood | tomiondrums
[13:58] <histo> ori: hold up yeah there is a problem with the mount command
[13:58] <jkd4> thanks abhi_nav
[13:58] <Gorgula> my wine's sound doesn't work...how can i fix this?
[13:58] <abhi_nav> jkd4: welcome :D
[13:59] <ori> histo, ok
[13:59] <ubuntu> ziobak112
[13:59] <abhi_nav> Gorgula: #winehq
[13:59] <Gorgula> thanks
[13:59] <abhi_nav> Gorgula: :)
[13:59] <DarkStar1> Anyone here use tightVNC server??
[14:00] <DarkStar1> please?
[14:00] <histo> ori: did you type in those spaces or did you use <tab> to autocomplete?
[14:00] <exploreralex> abhi_nav: i tried to copy the .iso image file from a disk to create a live usb using the creator. but the usb wasn't working when i tried to install. do i need to first write the image to a cd
[14:00] <histo> DarkStar1: I have
[14:00] <ori> histo: i did it...
[14:00] <Gorgula> abhi_nav: there is no1 in there
[14:00] <abhi_nav> exploreralex: no. just have a iso image and follow standard procedure with unetbootin
[14:00] <Dr_Willis> DarkStar1:  lots of people use it.
[14:00] <histo> ori: yeah use <tab> to autocomplete path to the iso because the spaces are whats screwing you up
[14:01] <DarkStar1> histo: Did you have the keyboard mapping problem?
[14:01] <ori> histo: thanx for everything
[14:01] <recon69_lap> tomiondrums: have you tried using system->preferances->display, do you get the nvida driver you installed or the default unbuntu one.
[14:01] <abhi_nav> Gorgula: there are 162 people
[14:01] <histo> ori: or you could cd /home/ori/Desktop/Counter<tab>
[14:01] <exploreralex> abhi_nav: ok. will try now. thanks.:)
[14:01] <Dr_Willis> exploreralex:  you use special tools to make a bootable usb from an ISO file.
[14:01] <Gorgula> weird
[14:01] <abhi_nav> exploreralex: :D
[14:01] <Gorgula> i will try again
[14:01] <DarkStar1> histo:  Because my client keyboard map to the server is banjaxxed
[14:01] <abhi_nav> Gorgula: /join #winehq
[14:01] <histo> ori: that will put you int he folder then you can juts sudo mount -o loop CS-CZ-CD2.iso /media/counterstrike
[14:01] <exploreralex> Dr_Willis: such as?
[14:01] <tomiondrums> recon69_lap: oh, i guess i have to mention i'm using Kubuntu
[14:01] <Gorgula> funny
[14:01] <Gorgula> thanks
[14:01] <histo> DarkStar1: really i've never had issues with that.
[14:02] <ori> histo: thanx is there something like power iso that changes the amount of cd drives?
[14:02] <histo> ori: use tab for autocompletetion.
[14:02] <tomiondrums> recon69_lap: i'm pretty sure i have the original nvidia one
[14:02] <meganerd> tomiondrums: join #kubuntu
[14:02] <histo> ori: you can mount as many iso's as you want just mkdir's for each of them.
[14:02] <arch0njw> meganerd: shouldn't matter.  this is a driver problem, not a ui problem.
[14:02] <DarkStar1> histo my keyboard map gets screwed. so for instance if I hit the "t" key "n" shows up on the server
[14:03] <abhi_nav> !unetbootin | exploreralex
[14:03] <exploreralex> Dr_Willis: what special tools are you talking about??
[14:03] <histo> ori: but like I was trying to say earlier if you are just trying to install counter strike you can use steam and your steam account.
[14:03] <DarkStar1> but I have no problem logging in with a password
[14:03] <arch0njw> tomiondrums: kubuntu/ubuntu -- you're having a driver problem.  You can check over in kubuntu, but a lot of people here can help with a driver problem too.
[14:03] <histo> DarkStar1: hrm... Not sure on that one. I'd ask in #tightvnc if there is one.
[14:03] <Jimi_Neutral> ok does anyone know how to give access to one folder to one user and not let him go anyewhere else using ftp
[14:03] <histo> DarkStar1: lemme try and find chanel
[14:03] <wers> on openoffice presentation, how do I create an animation that makes bullets appear one by one?
[14:03] <Gorgula> it seems like there is no1 in there
[14:03] <recon69_lap> tomiondrums: well, I'm not going to be much help anyway, luckly my HDTV is detected fine, I just need to get the display app to run in sudo mode so i can get it to update x-conf
[14:03] <jetienne> q. how can i install a given version of a package ? as opposed to the lastest version with "sudo apt-get install mysuperpacakge"
[14:04] <DarkStar1> histo: Thanks
[14:04] <histo> DarkStar1: no they don't have a channel on here.
[14:04] <ori> histo: alright. thanx alot!
[14:04] <arch0njw> jetienne: down load it and run 'dpkg -i {pacakge-name}'
[14:04] <DarkStar1> I'm just thinking to uninstall the server and stick with vino
[14:04] <Jimi_Neutral> ok does anyone here use ftp server on an ubuntu box
[14:04] <ActionParsnip> Jimi_neutral: proftpd let's you restrict users to their home. Just set the home dir for a new user and use that to ftp
[14:04] <jetienne> arch0njw: no other possibility ?
[14:04] <arch0njw> jetienne: not with apt-get/aptitute, or the UIs.
[14:05] <recon69_lap> jetienne: other packages normally have the version added to the name "sudo apt-get install mysuperpacakge-version"
[14:05] <histo> DarkStar1: http://www.tightvnc.com/freesupport.html
[14:05] <ActionParsnip> Jimi_neutral: i'd advise using ssh for secure ftp instead of ftp which is very weak in security
[14:05] <GreenT> X
[14:05] <jetienne> recon69_lap: oh i like this one
[14:05] <recon69_lap> jetienne: i'm no expert though
[14:05] <tomiondrums> arch0njw: i suppose my message will sink in this flood of communication before someone reads it who really could help me... :-(
[14:05] <sipior> Jimi_Neutral: have you considered running the ftp service in a chroot jail?
[14:06] <jetienne> arch0njw: recon69_lapt: thanks
[14:06] <Jimi_Neutral> ActionParsnip, ok that right there what you just said went right over my head...i am totally new to it and need a tutuorial or major help....the thing is tho the folder that he needs access to is mbuk which is here.....var/www/mbuk.....now i have seen windows guis that allow access to that folder without fiving access to the www folder but can you do that with linux?
[14:06] <arch0njw> tomiondrums: re-ask ... don't mention the distro ;)  You don't have an Ubuntu-flavor-specific quetion (IMO)
[14:06] <Jimi_Neutral> sipior, sorry i have no idea what u mean
[14:06] <abhi_nav> tomiondrums: ask you question in one line with details and for multi lines use pastebin or imagebin for images. feel free to ask ubuntu questions
[14:06] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: yes in the config for the ftp you can specify which folder they have access to.
[14:06] <sipior> Jimi_Neutral: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chroot
[14:06] <exploreralex> abhi_nav:it doesnt mention anything about the server edition. i read on a forum that usb booting can not be done for server edition.
[14:07] <histo> DarkStar1: I can't find a irc channel for them.
[14:07] <histo> DarkStar1: maybe the forums. or try a different vnc server for the time being.
[14:07] <Jimi_Neutral> sipior, unfortunatly i dont have time to read that, i just need to gett his set up before my boss eats my head
[14:07] <abhi_nav> exploreralex: ahh, does trying takes money? no? then just try? its matter of 5-10 mins? pleaes try first
[14:07] <dabukalam> I'm getting an error when installing mysql-server-5.0: "subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 1" anyone know what that is?
[14:07] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: what ftp daemon are you running right now?
[14:07] <sipior> Jimi_Neutral: "never time to do it right, always time to do it over..." :-)
[14:07] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, would you be able to help me set up from scratch
[14:08] <DarkStar1> histo: I think I'll just uninstall it and stick with vino. The ubuntu standard
[14:08] <exploreralex> abhi_nav:have tried so said so. i'll try again. thanks again.:)
[14:08] <jakiw> arch0njw, how do i burn the iso to the usb-stick now?
[14:08] <abhi_nav> exploreralex: you tried? and it is not working?
[14:08] <Jimi_Neutral> sipior, tell me about it, i have a boss that expects miricales tho and i dont even know linux, i have an mcp and im ccna certified but he wants all this stuff done in linux
[14:08] <a_6> I'm getting "Failed to retrieve share list from server" error when trying to access my lan group is there someone available to help?
[14:08] <histo> DarkStar1: well tightvnc server is different it doesn't share the desktop it creaets a new one from what I remembered
[14:08] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, i have no idea what u mean
[14:08] <recon69_lap> dabukalam: just means a script failed, look at the console output to see if it gives an error message before the script exits
[14:08] <Snicksie> how can i call a notification from libnotify via cli? i want to make a notification on command.
[14:08] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: have you done anything like installing ftp?
[14:08] <abhi_nav> !unetbootin | jakiw
[14:08] <ActionParsnip> Jimi_neutral: make a new user and set its home folder to the folder you want. You may find the config files go in the folder too. You can also have a home folder as normal with a link to the folder. The user will need appropriate access the the folder.
[14:09] <Kalisto> is there an issue with automount since the last kernel update? its not automounting my usb stick anymore?
[14:09] <DarkStar1> yeah that's why I want it but I'm using this machine as a server
[14:09] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, only clients and for the last two days trying to get this server running
[14:09] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: like proftp etc...
[14:09] <histo> !ftpd | Jimi_Neutral
[14:09] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: pick one
[14:09] <jakiw> abhi_nav does it also work for other os's?
[14:09] <meganerd> jakiw: you can't just "burn" a cd to a usb drive and expect it to work
[14:09] <dabukalam> recon69_lap: no it doesn't continue with the installation
[14:09] <exploreralex> abhi_nav: yes i did. it showed that the process completed successfully. then when i tried to boot a PC with the usb it said no boot-able files found. reboot or insert disk.
[14:09] <abhi_nav> jakiw: yah all linux darivatives
[14:09] <DarkStar1> histo: so I'm not bothered about creating a new one. Also with tight vnc I have 0 admin privileges
[14:09] <ActionParsnip> Jimi_Neutral: what you want is very specific so there will be no one guide. You will need a few guides to setup the components
[14:09] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, one with a grpahical front end would be nice, but one that actually works cause gadmin-proftpd dont
[14:09] <abhi_nav> jakiw: yah all os
[14:10] <avatorking> hi
[14:10] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: k let me check somehting
[14:10] <avatorking> !list
[14:10] <DarkStar1> histo: so I guess vino is ok for the task
[14:10] <Jimi_Neutral> ActionParsnip, thats what i feared, unfortunatley i have no idea and hardly any time to get this done
[14:10] <recon69_lap> anyone tell me how to start system-pref-display in sudo mode so it can update x-config file?
[14:10] <rocket16> OpenOffice is better than MSOffice, but is there any counterpart for OneNote?
[14:10] <Jimi_Neutral> ActionParsnip, you have no idea what this guy is like
[14:10] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: gproftpd
[14:10] <abhi_nav> exploreralex: if server edition cant be use on usb then you cant, but if you officialy can, then you are not doing well procedures
[14:10] <avatorking> !list
[14:10] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, gproftpd is gadmin-proftpd and it does not work
[14:11] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: whats wrong with gadmin-proftpd ?
[14:11] <solow> I installed ubuntu, and it doesn't display my bg
[14:11] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, the activate button does not activate it for a start
[14:11] <solow> its just black
[14:11] <abhi_nav> you bg? what is bg?
[14:11] <solow> BackGround
[14:11] <recon69_lap> dabukalam: how are you running the install, it's hit an error, there should be some clues as to what failed printed out to the console. how are you running the install?
[14:11] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: did it ask you for a sudo password?
[14:11] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, no
[14:11] <solow> When I try to set an image, it stays black
[14:11] <avatorking> how can I join the site with !list?
[14:12] <exploreralex> abhi_nav: hmm. that's the thing. its not mentioned even in the LTSP documentation. well lets see.
[14:12] <solow> when i try to change to color, it stays black.
[14:12] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: let me install it and take a look
[14:12] <meganerd> Jimi_Neutral: are you supposed to set up an FTP share or something more like windows file sharing
[14:12] <rocket16> Any nice OneNote-like notebook for Ubuntu? (Not like KJots, Rednotebook, Tomboy or GJots)
[14:12] <Jimi_Neutral> meganerd, he wants an ftp server set up and some users added and one of them is only alllowed access to one folder within a folder
[14:12] <avatorking> !list
[14:13] <Jimi_Neutral> meganerd, because the windows one is nice and easy and you create your own tree with it he thinks its nice and easy in linux too
[14:13] <Snicksie> anybody knows why this -> http://ctrl-c.us/blog/archives/tag/libnotify <- doesn't work? it should work for ubuntu as said, but i don't have the required package
[14:13] <avatorking> !list
[14:13] <DJones> avatorking: How do you mean join the site with !list?
[14:13] <dabukalam> recon69_lap: http://paste.ubuntu.com/401178/
[14:13] <solow> anyone?
[14:13] <meganerd> Jimi_Neutral: I use both at work, and I much prefer using Linux when I have a choice, especially for these tasks.
[14:13] <abhi_nav> exploreralex: wiat a min
[14:13] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: I see what you mean
[14:13] <exploreralex> abhi_nav: yes.
[14:14] <avatorking> !list
[14:14] <ActionParsnip> Jimi_neutral: it is if you know how ;)
[14:14] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, its jst my luck
[14:14] <avatorking> !list
[14:14] <Jimi_Neutral> ActionParsnip,  lol
[14:14] <meganerd> Jimi_Neutral: it is easy but you have to be familiar with the environment.  Windows is not easy if you have not been exposed to it before
[14:14] <theadmin> What happens when an application gets a segmentation fault, apart from receiving the (SIG)SEGV signal
[14:14] <theadmin> ?
[14:14] <avatorking> !list
[14:14] <Jimi_Neutral> i was using vsftpd but i couldnt get the one user added with access only to that one folder so he told me to uninstall and use a gui one, he doesnt like being argued with
[14:14] <ActionParsnip> Jimi_neutral: install a few servers, see which you prefer or is easiest to configure
[14:14] <DJones> avatorking: How do you mean join the site with !list?
[14:15] <avatorking> list
[14:15] <avatorking> !list
[14:15] <arch0njw> avatorking: please stop
[14:15] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: do you get the failed cert thing?
[14:15] <Jimi_Neutral> ActionParsnip, i have and none of them cause i dotn know linux
[14:15] <abhi_nav> exploreralex: see if this helps https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuServerFlashDriveInstaller
[14:15] <avatorking> !list
[14:15] <dabukalam> arch0njw: bot?
[14:15] <DJones> avatorking: Please stop doing !list.  This is not a file sharing channel (or network); be sure to read the channel topic. If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot »
[14:15] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, among other things...i followed a tut and it all worked but the server would not activate when i clicked activate...it didnt even start when i did it with command line
[14:16] <rmoore> hello all!
[14:16] <exploreralex> abhi_nav: i've started the process of creating another usb startup disk. let's see where that leads me. i'll still go through the link.
[14:16] <Jimi_Neutral> ActionParsnip, when i say i dont know, i mean i really dont know....i have no idea how to configure even basic access tbh
[14:16] <rocket16> Hello reoore
[14:16] <rocket16> Hello rmoore
[14:16] <ActionParsnip> jimi_neutral: I've used proftp in the past and its defaulted to home, I think if you look in /etc/proftpd.conf (I think its that file) there's a line to set the directory to home
[14:16] <dabukalam> !hi | rmoore
[14:16] <recon69_lap> recon69_lap: is there a reason you are downgrading your install from 5.1 to 5.0. ?
[14:16] <arch0njw> dabukalam: no clue... but seems to have ceased.
[14:16] <rmoore> are there any code junkies in here?
[14:16] <rocket16> Ah! I got it! Basket is a nice solution for OneNote!
[14:16] <dabukalam> arch0njw: thank god :)
[14:16] <Jimi_Neutral> ActionParsnip, and not being arsey, i knwo it sounds like it but im not, how does that help me?
[14:17] <ActionParsnip> Jimi_neutral: only one way to find out, get a server in and get configging and learning
[14:17] <kernel> haloo
[14:17] <abhi_nav> exploreralex: stop that and see that link first. link may have important info. and do remember to do google always first
[14:17] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: well the server is probably running
[14:17] <Jimi_Neutral> ActionParsnip, i dont have time with all th other shit i have to do
[14:17] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: netstat -ta in a terminal will show you.
[14:17] <dabukalam> recon69_lap: I'm not, 5.1 isn't installed. phpmyadmin wants me to have 5.0, it doesn't work with 5.1
[14:17] <exploreralex> abhi_nav: okay. doing that.
[14:17] <solow> so... black background, no help, me sad, crying and all... :(
[14:17] <abhi_nav> exploreralex:  :)
[14:17] <ActionParsnip> Jimi_neutral: but you have time to idle in irc till someone spoonfeeds you commands?
[14:17] <rmoore> i have a simple ????
[14:17] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, yeah looks liek it is
[14:17] <rocket16> Hello abhi_nav
[14:17] <dabukalam> !patience | solow
[14:17] <Jimi_Neutral> ActionParsnip, it is not spoon feed, i just want a tut
[14:18] <abhi_nav> rocket16: hellow!!!!!
[14:18] <Jimi_Neutral> ActionParsnip, you never followed a tut in your time working with linux?
[14:18] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: and it took my settings in the GUI even though it errored I'm just trying to connect now.
[14:18] <rocket16> abhi_nav: :)
[14:18] <solow> dabukalam, the time it took to type that could have been used to answer my question :P
[14:18] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, how are you connaecting....did you make up user and pass?
[14:19] <rocket16> So, friends, a nice thing here, in my locality, today we switched 5 PC users to Ubuntu
[14:19] <Gnea> Jimi_Neutral: what do you need a tutorial for? just using proftpd?
[14:19] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: yeah and added a directory
[14:19] <ActionParsnip> Jimi_neutral: yes but I found them online. I found this one which looks pretty good http://www.debianhelp.co.uk/pureftp.htm
[14:19] <Jimi_Neutral> Gnea, installing, configuring
[14:19] <dabukalam> solow: please don't be obnoxious. I didn't type that, a bot typed that, and who told you I have the answer to your question?
[14:19] <najsowy> join #nonsensopedia
[14:19] <BinariDragon> test
[14:19] <anonymoushash> setting up a raid file server with 1gig of ram.  Would I be better off setting up a swap?  or should 1 gig be more than enough for file server duties.  This is running Ebox.  So all the xwindows stuff won't be running.  Thanks.
[14:19] <psychoschlumpf> moin, can someone tell me how i can mount a nfs share and tell mount to map the gid/uids to local users?
[14:20] <histo> ActionParsnip: he's looking for one wiht a GUI admin panel or something
[14:20] <rmoore> im having a problem making a script that will  "sudo cp filename.conf /etc"
[14:20] <recon69_lap> dabukalam: so what command are you using to install mysql 5.0?
[14:20] <dabukalam> anonymoushash: how many users is the server serving?
[14:20] <Gnea> Jimi_Neutral: okay, so what's stopping you from searching ubuntuforums.org for certain keywords such as "proftpd setup tutorial"?
[14:20] <rocket16> Hey friends, is Gnotes same to Tomboy?
[14:20] <ActionParsnip> Histo: gui for ftp is silly
[14:20] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: yeah i'm going to try another one.
[14:20] <Jimi_Neutral> Gnea, i have spent the last two days doing that but the gui does not work
[14:20] <dabukalam> recon69_lap: like in the pastebin, apt-get install mysql-server-5.0
[14:20] <histo> ActionParsnip: gui for configuration is what he is looking for.
[14:20] <BinariDragon> rmoore: you have to tell what will be the file name
[14:20] <meganerd> Jimi_Neutral: http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=ubuntu+proftp+setup
[14:20] <ActionParsnip> Jimi_neutral: there are nice command examples there you can use
[14:21] <anonymoushash> dabuk: about 5 max
[14:21] <rmoore> yes i did ... resolv.conf
[14:21] <solow> dabukalam, Don't be so rude. I was just joking you prick. God lighten up a bit would yah.
[14:21] <ActionParsnip> Histo: I see, never seen one. Man pages and online guides are brilliant
[14:21] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: sudo apt-get install pure-admin
[14:21] <dabukalam> anonymoushash: 1GB should be more than enough
[14:21] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: remove the gadmin-proftpd stuff
[14:21] <recon69_lap> dabukalam: think you might need sudo apt-get install mysql-server-5.0
[14:21] <meganerd> Jimi_Neutral: your largest challenge will be permissions, since you are not familiar with the platform.  You may wish to google for "linux file permissions"
[14:21] <Gnea> Jimi_Neutral: uhm, why do you need to use a gui?
[14:21] <arch0njw> !language | solow\
[14:21] <arch0njw> !language | solow
[14:21] <BinariDragon> rmoore: and what error it gives you?
[14:22] <Jimi_Neutral> Gnea, why do most epople who just started linux use GUI?
[14:22] <anonymoushash> dabuK:  thats what I was thinking..  just wanted to get another opinion.  thanks again.
[14:22] <meganerd> Gnea: windows guy, GUIs are required for some reason
[14:22] <Jimi_Neutral> Gnea, apart from that i was told to
[14:22] <solow> arch0njw, What is it with you people? he's calling me obnoxious, and I'm the one being rude?
[14:22] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, ok doing that now
[14:22] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, couldnt find package
[14:22] <ActionParsnip> Jimi_neutral: once you realise how simple an ftp server is and the config file (just one humanly readable file) is equally simple you can config away happily
[14:22] <arch0njw> solow: "obnoxious" isn't foul language.  I haven't been following the conversation, but did notice the inappropriate language you used.
[14:23] <solow> !language | dabukalam
[14:23] <dabukalam> solow: on the contrary, you are being rude. I was just asking you to stop repeating your question as in IRC that makes people less likely to answer you. We're all here to help each other, if i had the answer to your question i would answer you
[14:23] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: couldn't find what package?
[14:23] <Gnea> Jimi_Neutral: ah, well I didn't know that.  I used to set it up by editting the proftpd.conf file itself. found that I was able to get results faster that way. but let's see here...
[14:23] <rmoore> the command works but only when entered manually from term as root.. wont run from script. i know its a protected file as it resets afgter reboot
[14:23] <BinariDragon> ubottu: test
[14:23] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, sudo apt-get install pure-admin
[14:24] <BinariDragon> rmoore: oo so the real question is how 2 use sudo in a shell script
[14:24] <Gnea> Jimi_Neutral: have you read this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=79588&
[14:24] <rmoore> ok
[14:24] <jakiw> abhi_nav, hi, selecting the windows iso works just fine, but then I hangs up at a random percent (First time 46, then 16, now 6)
[14:24] <Jimi_Neutral> Gnea, yes
[14:24] <solow> dabukalam, i was not being rude. I was repeating the question because it was moving away, and not in my screen anymore. And calling me obnoxious is insulting me, because I was just joking, and you took it way to serious.
[14:24] <iceroot> BinariDragon: is it a good idea to call the script as root?
[14:24] <jakiw> abhi_nav, maybe first time 47, dunno
[14:24] <iceroot> BinariDragon: instead of using sudo inside
[14:24] <ActionParsnip> Binaridragon: just use it as normal, write sudo in the script. Then launch the script with sudo and it will be fne
[14:24] <abhi_nav> jakiw: hmmm. it is called as WindowsCrazyThings(TM) read that tm in caps and too loudly
[14:25] <rmoore> sugestions??  im a newbie
[14:25] <Gnea> Jimi_Neutral: some of that is pretty old, but much of it, like the config file editting, is unchanged in years
[14:25] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[14:25] <recon69_lap> solow: it's recommended that you wait 5 min before reposting you question, not when it moves off the screen :)
[14:25] <abhi_nav> jakiw: dont know much about it then
[14:25] <Jimi_Neutral> Gnea, he doesnt need access to a home folder he needs access to mbuk and only mbuk which is inside www
[14:25] <solow> recon69_lap, good. thanks for a normal answer. :)
[14:25] <BinariDragon> rmoore: change the permissiong with chown on the the script
[14:25] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, karmic
[14:25] <jakiw> abhi_nav, so u cant help?
[14:25] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: yeah you can create a user and just lock him in /var/www/mbuk
[14:25] <rmoore> 9.04 i think
[14:25] <Dr_Willis> rmoore:  if you run a script from rc.local  it will also get ran as root. (or commands from rc.local)
[14:25] <Gnea> Jimi_Neutral: I don't know what mbuk is. I can only guess that it's a subdir
[14:25] <peleg> One of my email folders was just deleted from Evolution, suddenly! It also does not appear in the webmail client any more. I am afraid Evolution somehow deleted it... Any ideas where should I look for it?

[14:25] <dabukalam> solow: if you want to continue this please do it in a PM, as this channel is not designed for arguments
[14:25] <Jimi_Neutral> Gnea, sorry yea it is
[14:26] <abhi_nav> jakiw: since it is hanging you said, I cant help. Its out of my understanding
[14:26] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, but you just told me to install it lol
[14:26] <ActionParsnip> Jimi_neutral: make a new user with a symlink to the folder it needs access to amongst its own data
[14:26] <vHanda> Hi. I have this blueman repository, and it shows up in the synaptic->repositories, but it isn't there is the /etc/apt/sources.list. Would anyone know why?
[14:26] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: sry sudo apt-get instal pureadmin
[14:26] <solow> dabukalam, I stopped already. just made my point is all.
[14:26] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: dash was a typo
[14:26] <jakiw> abhi_nav, ok, thx
[14:26] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, ah ok
[14:26] <Dr_Willis> vHanda:  because its in /etc/apt/sources.list.d  perhaps?
[14:26] <peleg> I am using imap connection
[14:26] <Gnea> Jimi_Neutral: no problem. but yeah, just like histo said, just set it up like any old user account. there's even a configuration directive that you can use to chroot jail it.
[14:26] <BinariDragon> i hate wen people ask for help and after they get what they want just leave without even saying thank you
[14:26] <vHanda> Dr_Willis: Oh. There is another folder. I'll check in that. Thanks.
[14:26] <abhi_nav> jakiw: welcome :D
[14:27] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, ok installed
[14:27] <Dr_Willis> vHanda:  its considered bad practice to add stuff to sources.list  these days.. use seperate files in soures.list.d
[14:27] <BinariDragon> dont cost much to say thanks
[14:27] <BinariDragon> maybe 2 seconds
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> Binaridragon: +1,000,000
[14:27] <theadmin> BinariDragon: Most people think everyone here is supposed to help them :/
[14:27] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: now just run pureadmin and configure
[14:27] <dabukalam> BinariDragon: +2
[14:27] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, how
[14:27] <nibbler> http://nopaste.info/b0f3caa97f.html - my ubuntu  thinks its 1.may 2194 (this would be the year) and ntpdate cannot convice him that he is wrong? whats going on here? i tried several ntp servers
[14:27] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, to run#
[14:27] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: its under applications > system tools > pureadmin
[14:27] <theadmin> BinariDragon: /s/most/some
[14:27] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, ok
[14:27] <vHanda> Dr_Willis: Yup. It's there. Thanks. Learnt something new :-)
[14:27] <BinariDragon> theadmin:
[14:27] <BinariDragon> theadmin: lol
[14:27] <Gnea> BinariDragon: that's weird, 99% of the people I help tend to thank me
[14:27] <nibbler> and i cant access gmail as the server certificate ahs expired 184 years ago :(
[14:28] <jakiw> abhi_nav can I somehow burn the image on another partition (i have like 5 :P) and then use that partition to install windows on another partition?
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> Gnea: the 1% need teaching
[14:28] <dabukalam> nibbler: is this ubuntu 94.04 lonely human?
[14:28] <Gnea> BinariDragon: even if the problem wasn't actually solved
[14:28] <nibbler> dabukalam, nope, 9.10, little bit outdated for this year ;-) - and you missed a "1"
[14:28] <Gnea> ActionParsnip: can't help everyone, only those that truly want it.
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> Jakiw: you can use partimage to backup a partition to a compressed file
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> Gnea: aye
[14:29] <dabukalam> nibbler: i noticed, :D
[14:29] <abhi_nav> jakiw: yah you can
[14:29] <dabukalam> nibbler: do you have a windows partition?
[14:29] <nibbler> dabukalam, yep that aswell
[14:29] <ActionParsnip> Jakiw: you can burn It to a dvd etc if it gives enough space
[14:29] <jakiw> ActionParsnip, My Optical drive doesnt work
[14:30] <ActionParsnip> Jakiw: if you then delete the partition then it can be used by another OS
[14:30] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, ok i have added a new user....how do i lock him so he can only access a certain folder
[14:30] <jakiw> abhi_nav, how, is there a tutorial or a prog?
[14:30] <dabukalam> recon69_lap: yeah, that's what i meant, sudo apt-get
[14:30] <ActionParsnip> Jakiw: or usb stick then or network file store
[14:30] <solow> 5 minutes are up. how can i change resolution settings in ubuntu? my monitor says its not supported when booting, and my background of my desktop stays black.
[14:30] <Gnea> BinariDragon: maybe people don't want a solution that they haven't agreed upon. I see that a lot.
[14:30] <abhi_nav> jakiw: dont know...............
[14:30] <abhi_nav> jakiw: do googling
[14:30] <ActionParsnip> Jackiw: some storage anyway
[14:30] <jakiw> ActionParsnip Ye, but how do i do it?
[14:30] <BinariDragon> solow: what video card do you have
[14:31] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: click edit user
[14:31] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, yup
[14:31] <meganerd> jakiw: it depends on the OS that you are trying to install
[14:31] <theadmin> Bleh, why "find ~ -name somefile 2>/dev/null" works faster then Nautilus search?
[14:31] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: settigns are on the right specify the folder for him
[14:31] <ActionParsnip> Jakiw: boot to livecd so the partition isn't mounted and use partimage. You will need a destination partition mounted to receive the image
[14:31] <peleg> Help? A whole folder of emails, with all of its contents, was deleted just now from my email account... I think I should blame evolution. I am using IMAP. Any help?
[14:31] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: you probably also want to give that user rights to that folder on the system.
[14:31] <solow> BinariDragon, I have no idea. but the backgroun should at least work.
[14:31] <recon69_lap> dabukalam: well, I'm out of ideas, have you tried the synaptic packet manager. cant think of anything else
[14:31] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, aye can see them but how do i make sure he can oly browse there and no where else
[14:31] <Gnea> theadmin: gnome :)
[14:31] <jakiw> meganerd, ActionParsnip, I want to install Windows on a partition, but I only have a Disc and my Optical Drive is broken
[14:31] <mari> ablad en español coño
[14:31] <nibbler> hehe, setting my time to the right century, ntpdate actually fixed the rest....
[14:31] <theadmin> Gnea: hm?
[14:32] <avatorking> !list
[14:32] <ActionParsnip> Peleg: restore from your backups
[14:32] <mari> k
[14:32] <theadmin> ubottu: ops | avatorking abuses the bot!
[14:32] <Roasted> ubuntu is telling me I have 20% signal, when there's an AP right above my head. When I plug in a USB wireless adapter, I get 100% signal. wha thte?
[14:32] <ActionParsnip> Jakiw: windows installs are offtopic here
[14:32] <meganerd> jakiw: I have never succeeded with this
[14:32] <avatorking> !list
[14:32] <avatorking> !list
[14:32] <kcantin> Hello all
[14:32] <mari> hello
[14:32] <ActionParsnip> Roasted: does the chip need firmware?
[14:32] <abhi_nav> avatorking: ubottu is clever than you  :P
[14:32] <Gnea> theadmin: even the most basic gnome-based app uses more libraries than it really needs to. so when you want to do a simple search, it has to access all of these system resources in order to accomplish it. on the commandline, it's just simple.
[14:33] <peleg> ActionParsnip, what backups? The messages are not stored on my computer, but in my host's servers, and I am using imap. It is deleted from the server, I'm afraid. Does evolution keeps backups anyway on my own machine?
[14:33] <theadmin> Gnea: Oh, i see...
[14:33] <meganerd> jakiw: the windows installer kind of assumes that you are installing from an optical drive.  I did install Windows 7 with a USB based DVD drive, but that is way OT here
[14:33] <Roasted> ActionParsnip, It's a broadcom. It works fine otherwise. I can go home and get 100% signal and whatever else. It's just weird that my internal card at my desk at work is ALWAYS 20% when Im in range of an AP for 100%. Yet a USB adapter picks it up fine...
[14:33] <ActionParsnip> Peleg: if the data is important you will have a regular backup to an external storage incase of disaster
[14:33] <jakiw> meganerd, ActionParsnip, ok, thx for trying to help
[14:34] <Gnea> theadmin: it's akin to the bloat that we see on windows-based systems, only applied differently.
[14:34] <meganerd> jakiw: if this is for school and not games, virtualbox might be the answer
[14:34] <theadmin> How do i get smth like "Start terminal here" to right-click menu?
[14:34] <louhusson> Hi, I cannot log into my gnome session anymore, only failsafe works. I am using 9.04. /var/log/syslog gives me this : kernel:  ... mtrr: no MTRR for e0000000, 100000 found. I tried with kernels 2.6.31-20 and 2.6.31-19
[14:34] <iceroot> is there a way to set all init.scripts from /etc/rc0.d/ to debug-modus? i dont want to write set -x so every file and i cant find a way to say bash, it should always use set -x
[14:34] <Kathlyn> Hello.
[14:34] <Kathlyn> :)
[14:34] <theadmin> Gnea: bleh, don't remind me of windows plzzz
[14:34] <peleg> ActionParsnip, well, the "external storage" is exactly the remote server! That's why I am using imap, and not pop3 that leaves everything on my risky HD...
[14:34] <ActionParsnip> Jakiw: the image system is supported here. I use it to backup fresh installs of new releases as restoring the image is fater than the system can be installed
[14:34] <abhi_nav> jakiw: i use windows in virtualbox. for college purpose
[14:34] <Gnea> theadmin: sorry :)
[14:34] <arch0njw> !hi | Kathlyn
[14:34] <jakiw> meganerd and how do i install on Virtualbox without a disc?
[14:35] <Kathlyn> hell
[14:35] <meganerd> jakiw: you can use an ISO
[14:35] <Kathlyn> o
[14:35] <iceroot> jakiw: with isos
[14:35] <abhi_nav> jakiw: you just only need iso to install on virtualbox
[14:35] <kcantin> Apparently my 00:01.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82810E DC-133 (CGC) Chipset Graphics Controller video card is installed and configured correctly but, I still have an issue because for some reason I cannot choose a resolution higher than 800 X 600 even though I know I should be able to.
[14:35] <dabukalam> nibbler: try typing in terminal: date 032514352010
[14:35] <ActionParsnip> Peleg: if the mails are still on the server then just configure a new profile and the server will be reread
[14:35] <meganerd> jakiw: virtualbox and VMWare can use ISOs and present them to the virtualized environment as emulated optical drives
[14:35] <kcantin> Can anyone here possibly help me out?
[14:35] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, you are an angel mate, i owe you a beer...it connects, it recognises the username but it wont accept the password
[14:35] <rmoore> ok im back yall...
[14:36] <jakiw> meganerd ok, ill try
[14:36] <nibbler> dabukalam: setting my time to the right century, ntpdate actually fixed the rest....
[14:36] <ActionParsnip> Kcantin: you may need an xorg.conf to get a decent res
[14:36] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: let me check something
[14:36] <theadmin> hm. I hope when time changes from non-DST to DST i don't have to do a fsck?
[14:36] <dabukalam> nibbler: great
[14:36] <eremite> kcantin:  http://chvnx.com/post/280205781/change-screen-resolution-in-linux-ubuntu  follow these instructions and change it according to your desired resolution.  Replace VGA1 with VGA.
[14:37] <kcantin> Hello ActionParnsnip, do you think that would be the answer?
[14:37] <abhi_nav> theadmin: what is dst and non-dst?
[14:37] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, i can see it popping up in the window pane on the right and then shooting off again
[14:37] <peleg> ActionParsnip, I am thankful for your help, but I am afraid you're not reading my messages well; the folder is completely vanished, even when I try to access it using a webmail client. I think that somehow evolution deleted it completely from here and from the server, although it is configured not to really delete anything until I "purge" it (but maybe this does not apply to complete folders)
[14:37] <dmdevotee> hey sup, i'm using 9.10. anybody tried to add a shortcut for jdownloader?
[14:37] <WhiteDawn> abhi_nav: daylight savings time
[14:37] <theadmin> abhi_nav: Daylight saving time, you know liek time shifts 1 hour back at winter... and back at summer
[14:37] <kcantin> hello eremite, I think I remember you from before.
[14:37] <Chad__> i would like to stream audio and video what would be the best way of going about this ?
[14:37] <abhi_nav> WhiteDawn: ohhh thankyou
[14:37] <ActionParsnip> Kcantin: eremite may have the key. If you do need an xorg.conf you will need to find one online as jkarmic and later do not have one
[14:37] <m_anish> Hi I am trying to learn basic opengl on my amd64 ubuntu karmic install with intel x3100 graphics chipset on a dell inspiron 1420 laptop... When I compile and run the application, the rendered display doesn't get synced to vblanks of my LCD, however the packaged glxgears application that came with my distro has its rendered framed synced with vblanks... am I missing something in my programming
[14:37] <abhi_nav> theadmin: hmm ok
[14:37] <eremite> kcantin: YOU OBVIOUSLY DIDNT FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THE SECOND HALF OF THAT POST THEN
[14:38] <dabukalam> I'm getting an error while trying to install mysql-server-5.0: http://paste.ubuntu.com/401178/
[14:38] <eremite> sorrty, caps locl
[14:38] <dabukalam> !shout eremite
[14:38] <louhusson> Would anyone know how to enable networking in Failsafe mode? I cannot access the internet (there's no network manager)
[14:38] <Gnea> eremite: no need for that.
[14:38] <BinariDragon> Chad__: like a radio station or just for couple of friends
[14:38] <meganerd> Jimi_Neutral: check /var/log/daemon (use a text editor or a pager like less)
[14:38] <kcantin> Emerite, where do I change vga1 to vga?
[14:38] <eremite> Gnea: no need for what?
[14:38] <dmdevotee> anybody here uses jdownloader?
[14:38] <ActionParsnip> Peleg: yowser...hmm does you email provider provide data restore?
[14:38] <Jimi_Neutral> meganerd, what am i checking for
[14:38] <abhi_nav> theadmin:  and WhiteDawn: but it never happends with me. do i need to care about it? does it affect me?
[14:38] <theadmin> dmdevotee: I did someday...
[14:38] <meganerd> Jimi_Neutral: errors
[14:38]  * eremite /ignores peopel who have no idea what they are talking about
[14:38] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: this will explain https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PureFTP
[14:38] <kcantin> Emerite, YiKes!   No, unfortunatlely not.   I have not had a chance to get back to it though.
[14:38] <rocket16> Anybody know how to get this theme? http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2360/2378666054_37557e5201.jpg
[14:38] <theadmin> abhi_nav: Guess no :/
[14:39] <meganerd> Jimi_Neutral: /var/log is like the event viewer, but better IMO
[14:39] <Chad__> binaridragon: just for couple of friends i basically just want to be able to access my content from anywhere and play it and i dont know where to begin
[14:39] <abhi_nav> theadmin: hmm
[14:39] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: I have to get going though someone else should be able to help you with the password issue. The user needs to be a member of ftpgroup
[14:39] <dmdevotee> theadmin: could you remember if you succesfully could do a shortcut?
[14:39] <WhiteDawn> louhusson: you would have to load the modules manualy, then setup your network with ifconfig
[14:39] <arch0njw> rocket16: ask the person who posed that SS?  :)
[14:39] <kcantin> Thanks a lot Fell'as!!
[14:39] <peleg> ActionParsnip, I am not sure, maybe. I will ask them, of course... do you know if evolution keeps logs? Where I can find whether it got a "deletion order" for that folder, or something similar?
[14:39] <theadmin> dmdevotee: Depends on how do you install it.
[14:39] <kcantin> NP Emerite
[14:39] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, ah ok....ty bud you are a star
[14:39] <Chad__> BinariDragon:i was told vlc but i can't seem to find concrete instructions on this
[14:39] <dmdevotee> theadmin: i installed it with the script jd.sh from their page
[14:39] <rocket16> arch0njm: Yes, but this is really tiresome. I don't know him.
[14:39] <eremite> kcantin: if you want me to guide you through the steps to fix that, send me a PM
[14:40] <louhusson> WhiteDawn: ok, I have absolutely no idea how to do that.
[14:40] <Chad__> BinariDragon: im running karmic server
[14:40] <ActionParsnip> Rocket16: its just a green metacity with green coloured gnome panel. You can get a green metacity etc from www.gnome-look.org
[14:40] <BinariDragon> Chad__: look in to vlc and mythTV
[14:40] <m_anish> code is here http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/kNbMHWqD
[14:40] <nibbler> dabukalam: actually it breaks in 1078
[14:40] <theadmin> dmdevotee: So just make a launcher for this script, that's all, just make sure it has a permission to be executed.
[14:40] <SmartSsa> dmdevotee: jdownloader is not a part of Ubuntu.  You won't get help for it here.
[14:40] <m_anish> help anyone!
[14:40] <nibbler> dabukalam: actually it breaks in 2078
[14:40] <rmoore> heres what im doing....i have a moto droid and wanted to do a usb tether to my ubuntu laptop fot internet...i got that working, but....im trying to create a script to "start the modem" without having to go to terminal every time. it only has 3 lines. 1 forward port (works)2copy over /etc/resolv.conf (not work)3start vpn(works)
[14:40] <dmdevotee> theadmin: if i execute that script with sudo, in terminal it works, but i can't make the shortcut works
[14:40] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: they need be added witht he pure-pw if they aren't a user ont he local machine basicallyu
[14:40] <abhi_nav> m_anish: what happends?
[14:40] <ActionParsnip> Peleg: try /var/log or $HOME/.evolution for logs
[14:40] <BinariDragon> Chad__: you may also look in Deluge BitTorrent, works well for remote use
[14:40] <theadmin> dmdevotee: sudo!? It shouldn't require that.
[14:40] <dabukalam> nibbler: huh?
[14:40] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, no they arent, there is only me and my boss on this box
[14:40] <WhiteDawn> louhusson: lol, well you can use lsmod to see modules currently running, then remember those and use modprobe <module name> to load them. "man ifconfig" will tell you all about how to use ifconfig to setup your network
[14:41] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, wont this change wehre they log in to tho
[14:41] <Chad__> BinariDragon: for streaming audio and video
[14:41] <eremite> ActionParsnip: Here's my Ubuntu desktop.  Green green green :)  http://chvnx.com/post/468482521/my-current-ubuntu-desktop-what-does-yours-look
[14:41] <recon69_lap> hmm, reboot time, hope i'v not fryed my x-conf
[14:41] <rocket16> ActionParsnip: Thanks :)
[14:41] <arch0njw> !ask | m_anish
[14:41] <rmoore> the resolv.conf will only over write if don manually
[14:41] <nibbler> dabukalam, ntpdate fixes my time, unless the time of my computer is beyond 2078 - for i in $(seq 10 99); do echo $i; date 0420150020$i>/dev/null; ntpdate 192.168.200.117 > /dev/null ; date; done
[14:41] <dmdevotee> sh /media/DATOS/LINUX/GNOME/jd.sh : doesn't work
[14:41] <dabukalam> nibbler: what's the output of hwclock?
[14:41] <dmdevotee> sudo sh /media/DATOS/LINUX/GNOME/jd.sh : work
[14:41] <theadmin> dmdevotee: Anyway, you can make a launcher start stuff in terminal doing "gnome-terminal -x COMMAND"
[14:42] <ghostlines> hi all, i'm trying to understand what's an acceptable label string for amanda backup, the config file says DailySet1[0-9][0-9]*$   I don't understand what *$ means
[14:42] <BinariDragon> Chad__vlc can offer a simple way to stream butmythTV can do a better job at it
[14:42] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: no just like sudo pure-pw useradd joblow -u ftpuser -d /var/www/whatever_that_folder_was   then sudo pure-pw mkdb
[14:42] <nibbler> dabukalam, Cannot access the Hardware Clock via any known method.Use the --debug option to see the details of our search for an access method.
[14:42] <m_anish> abhi_nav, well basically when i compile n run, something is displayed in a window but its framerate is not consistent ... when i increase the size of the window the framerate decreases and vice-versa but with the glxgears applicatio the framerate is always constant
[14:42] <nibbler> dabukalam, by the way, i dont have any open issue, just trying to figure out what went wrong....
[14:42] <ActionParsnip> Eremite: not bad, mines a pretty plain green openbox theme with a dark green background
[14:42] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: nah hold up
[14:42] <abhi_nav> m_anish: its about opengl? then Please askin open gl channel.
[14:43] <dmdevotee> thadmin: i have to put only the path, or sh path?
[14:43] <louhusson> WhiteDawn: thanks. However that means I need to find a list of those running modules, and my initial problem is that I cannot log into Gnome except when in Failsafe (I'm using a mac to connect to IRC)
[14:43] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, ok
[14:43] <rmoore> did anyone get thAt??
[14:43] <arch0njw> ghostlines: that's a regular expression
[14:43] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: ignore that
[14:43] <theadmin> dmdevotee: Meh, if it's executable you don't even NEED 'sh'
[14:43] <m_anish> abhi_nav, ok thanks!
[14:43] <dabukalam> nibbler: oh, so it's fixed...
[14:43] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, lol ok
[14:43] <dmdevotee> thx, will try
[14:43] <dabukalam> nibbler: yeah it's a wierd problem
[14:43] <abhi_nav> m_anish: :)
[14:43] <ActionParsnip> Jimi_neutral: see how command line and config files get advised over gui ways...
[14:43] <arch0njw> ghostlines: "$" means "the end of the line"
[14:43] <meganerd> dmdevotee: using sh on ubuntu uses /bin/dash as an interpreter.  You probably do not want this
[14:44] <nibbler> dabukalam, yep, so thanks anyway :)
[14:44] <arch0njw> ghostlines: what they are saying is that you can have that first part, any number 0-9 repeated as many times as you want until the end of the name.
[14:44] <dabukalam> nibbler: when it changed, was the time correct? or were they both off?
[14:44] <Jimi_Neutral> ActionParsnip, yes i knwo that and i know that it is better bud, but when you got a boss like mine you panic and u just want the quickest and easiest way and the way you know
[14:44] <meganerd> dmdevotee: make the file executable or use bash instead of sh
[14:44] <axisys_> is there a way to burn a dvd with ubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-server iso and allow you options to install either or ?
[14:44] <peleg> ActionParsnip, I can't find logs, but I did find that folder: /folders/INBOX/subfolders/University  --  and University is exactly the folder I lost!
[14:44] <dabukalam> nibbler: I didn't do anything!
[14:44] <ActionParsnip> Peleg: does it have stuff in?
[14:45] <shay2772> Hello , can someone recommend me on good tool for Ubuntu for resizing SWF ? ( width and height)
[14:45] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, if it helps SmartFTP is telling me the password is hidden
[14:45] <kcantin> emerite, how do I PM you?
[14:45] <arch0njw> ghostlines: so DailySet101234876123478 is valid, butDailySet1130982349082A is not (cannot have letters in the last set of characters.
[14:45] <abhi_nav> shay2772 what is swf?
[14:45] <ghostlines> arch0njw, hmmmm oh k man, thanks so DailySet1-0101 should be acceptable
[14:45] <barakuda> Hello, I received a notify about the latest Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope updates
[14:45] <peleg> ActionParsnip, I doesn't have all of the 1. 2. 3. files other folders have, but it does have subfolders in it (for some weird reason)
[14:45] <arch0njw> ghostlines: bingo
[14:45] <shay2772> abhi_nav: flash file
[14:45] <WhiteDawn> louhusson: can you get into the file system and open up /etc/modules.conf
[14:45] <ActionParsnip> Shay2772: mencoder or ffmpeg
[14:45] <barakuda> are they true or are they only malicious programs that hackers wants to put on my machine?
[14:45] <abhi_nav> shay2772 hmmm
[14:45] <nibbler> dabukalam, well, you helped and gave me the date command, i figured it out myself meanwhile but still... thanks for the effort
[14:46] <ghostlines> arch0njw, butttt, they said that's still is invalid:S
[14:46] <sobczyk> hi, why there is no partimage in 64bit karmic?
[14:46] <shay2772> ActionParsnip: how can i set the size ?
[14:46] <peleg> ActionParsnip, either way, the messages should not be saved on the computer...
[14:46] <barakuda> Is it possible that hacker puts a virus on my update manager? I'm scared to download updates :S
[14:46] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: try sudo mv /etc/pure-ftpd/auth/PureDB 50PureDB
[14:46] <dabukalam> nibbler: not at all
[14:46] <ghostlines> arch0njw, sorry my bad
[14:46] <dabukalam> nibbler: :)
[14:46] <ActionParsnip> Shay2772: you'll have to find guides or read the long man pages
[14:46] <arch0njw> ghostlines: oops.  take out the dash :)
[14:46] <meganerd> sobczyk: because it does not build for the 64bit version
[14:46] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: see if that helps with the authentication
[14:46] <eremite> sobczyk: you can use gparted, I think.  Its in the synaptic repos.
[14:46] <dabukalam> I'm getting an error while trying to install mysql-server-5.0: http://paste.ubuntu.com/401178/
[14:46] <abhi_nav> sobczyk: i am using 64 bit 9.10 too, what is partimage?
[14:46] <dabukalam> !partimage
[14:47] <meganerd> dabukalam: that is a different program that does something different
[14:47] <ActionParsnip> Peleg: yeah, maybe the folders get made to hold temp stuff
[14:47] <abhi_nav> :)
[14:47] <sobczyk> partimage is for backing up partitions especially usefull fot ntfs
[14:47] <louhusson> WhiteDawn: there is only /etc/modules and it only has two lines : lp and rtc
[14:47] <abhi_nav> sobczyk: ohhh thats why meganerd said 'different' hmm :D
[14:47] <meganerd> sobczyk: I just boot with systemrescuecd (usually the USB verson) or use something like clonezilla
[14:47] <WhiteDawn> louhusson: ok, can you do a lspci and put that in a pastebin?
[14:47] <arvind_khadri> !info partimage | dabukalam
[14:47] <ActionParsnip> Partimage is great once you get a system setup. Then you can play then just restore if things go weird
[14:48] <eremite> sobczyk: if you need a FULL system backup, /home folder AND settings, check out Remastersys.  Makes a Live CD ISO or Installable distro of yoru current machine.
[14:48] <dabukalam> arvind_khadri: huh? why didn't it work without the info?
[14:48] <dabukalam> !info ubuntu
[14:48] <dabukalam> arvind_khadri: ooooooooh it's for packagess....
[14:48] <eremite> the !info is for packages only I think
[14:48] <louhusson> WhiteDawn: well not really since it doesn't have internet. What are you looking for?
[14:48] <rmoore> any ideas yall??
[14:48] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: I'm trying to find a better guide for you with proftp may work better than pure. All the gtk admin stuff kind of sucks though it seems
[14:48] <arvind_khadri> dabukalam, as thats the way its supposed to work. info is trigger for info about packages
[14:49] <abhi_nav> !info gnome do
[14:49] <ghostlines> arch0njw, thanks alot man, many thanks!!!!
[14:49] <peleg> ActionParsnip, oh well. I'll contact my host...
[14:49] <abhi_nav> :(
[14:49] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, gets as far as auth and then there is no such file or dir
[14:49] <dabukalam> !info mysql-server-5.0
[14:49] <arch0njw> ghostlines: sure thing :)
[14:49] <allu2> Hello
[14:49] <ActionParsnip> Histo: +1 for sucky gtk
[14:49] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: ughh.
[14:49] <arch0njw> !hi | allu2
[14:49] <kcantin> if the resolution script does not work I know that I have an Xorg.Conf.Bak file to work from but, I have no clue what to do with it.
[14:49] <sobczyk> eremite, I need a compressed win7 backup is there anything better than partimage for that (free ofcourse)
[14:50] <amani> internet browser for ubuntu
[14:50] <dmdevotee> in launcher: gnome-terminal -x bash /media/DATOS/LINUX/GNOME/jd.sh doesn't work
[14:50] <dabukalam> !firefox | amani
[14:50] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, there is 65unix and 70pam in there
[14:50] <dmdevotee> please, is there any way to add launcher to .sh files that NEEDS sudo?
[14:50] <meganerd> sobczyk: clonezilla, though Windows 7 does not play nice (there are two partitions now, some sort of boot partition and then the data or C: drive)
[14:50] <eremite> Cany anyone tell me why Ubuntu send pings to ALL-SYSTEMS.MCAST.NET?  <--- Why does Ubuntu send ANYTHING about my computer to this website?  Spyware?
[14:50] <amani> how to run java programs in ubuntu?
[14:51] <louhusson> WhiteDawn: it seems to list all hardware components. I'm quite new to linux, is it always that complicated? I just booted 2 days ago and gnome wouldn't start, and failsafe doesn't have internet so it's not usable at all.
[14:51] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: yeah it should looka the pure db first because of hte 50
[14:51] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, i have no idea what you just said lol
[14:51] <ActionParsnip> Sobczyk: partimage is exactly what you want if you want a compressed image of a partition
[14:51] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: this is why you just use the text files to change the setting instead of the gui's
[14:51] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, why?
[14:52] <ActionParsnip> Eremite: i'd ask jeeves ;)
[14:52] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, actually dont worry about that, im never gonna remember.
[14:52] <erUSUL> !java | amani
[14:52] <louhusson> WhiteDawn: By the way lspci found the wireless card if that is what you were looking for (network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965 AG or AGN Kedron Network Connection (rev 61))
[14:52] <sobczyk> I wondered what for is that small windows partition, now I know it's for making backing up more miserable
[14:53] <sipior> eremite: that name is an alias, and is used for multicast over a network.
[14:53] <meganerd> sobczyk: gotta love change.
[14:53] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: well they are just plain text files in /etc/ for configuration when yous tart messing with gui apps god knows what they are changing.
[14:54] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, ohhh i see
[14:54] <cdavis> Is anyone aware of a decent open source project that helps to do an impact analysis for a business continuity plan?
[14:54] <kcantin> eremite, thanks....just let me know when you might be available.
[14:55] <ActionParsnip> Cdavis: I've used openoffice calc for that
[14:55] <edakiri> erUSUL: nice Dune reference. I think that java page has false information.  "The GCJ flavor of Java is installed as default"  in Karmic, default-jre points to openjdk
[14:55] <dabukalam> I'm getting an error while trying to install mysql-server-5.0: http://paste.ubuntu.com/401178/
[14:55] <histo> Jimi_Neutral: I have to get going though anyone else should be able to help you get going.
[14:55] <allu2> i have synth plugged in gameport when i run aplaymidi -l i find MPU-401 UART witch seems to be the synth, i want to use the synth to produce piano sounds but i don't know how, i have qsynth and rosegarden i tried to get them work so i could hear what i play but when i play in rosegarden and record i just see rosegarden takes the input but i don't hear the sound form my headset, how i could hear the gameport synth in ubuntu 9.10 ?
[14:55] <erUSUL> edakiri: tk :) i will look into updating that wiki page ...
[14:56] <cdavis> ActionParsnip: point taken, however this is to help co-workers and they want something a little less thought provoking
[14:56] <Jimi_Neutral> histo, ok, ty for all your help, i can see it actually works now so i am half way there
[14:57] <ActionParsnip> Cdavis: well, what do they want? Its a cost spreadsheet
[14:58] <jophish> I'm entering a programming contest over the weekend. Much to my dismay it is being run with visual studio, and Windows. Having experienced  this abomination before I am aware that the windows terminal  has nothing on Bash. I'm wondering what is the preferred way to use Bash under Windows? Thanks.
[14:58] <cdavis> ActionParsnip: they want a web front end that asks questions about disasters, probabilities and impacts to determine what the policy needs to state.
[14:58] <kajo> My 2gig USB stick is showing it has 39 megabytes free, but it has only 1 gig of files on it. The .Trashes is empty, and I'm showing hidden files--the 1 gig of data includes the .Trashes and any other hidden folders. Ejecting, remounting, refreshing... nothing shows the proper empty space, and so I can't copy stuff larger than 30 megabytes onto it.
[14:58] <carmen> ola
[14:58] <louhusson> I'm new to Ubuntu, could someone help me diagnose an issue I have? I cannot log in to my gnome session - the screen jitters for one second and then throws me back at the login screen. However Failsafe gome works.
[14:58] <kajo> What is going on, and how can I fix it?
[14:58] <ActionParsnip> Cdavis: gotcha, then you can code an html page with some php etc and it will work fine
[14:58] <godigo> hola
[14:58] <cdavis> ActionParsnip: I could, but they have told me I have other priorities :)
[14:59] <dabukalam> kajo: is the partition 2GB?
[14:59] <kajo> Yes, it's a 2gig partition.
[14:59] <jure64> how do I change the description of a file type?
[14:59] <p1l0t> louhusson: that's an incorrect username/password response
[14:59] <dabukalam> kajo: paste the output of sudo fdisk -l
[14:59] <ActionParsnip> Jophish: powershell has a lot of functionality and runs on windows
[14:59] <kajo> dabukalam,
[14:59] <allu2> how i could listen sound from /dev/midi1 ?
[14:59] <dabukalam> kajo: oh ok
[14:59] <jophish> ActionParsnip, I will look into it. Thanks.
[14:59] <erUSUL> !midi | allu2
[14:59] <sobczyk> if anyone wondered partimage 0.6.8 compiles fine on amd64 so I have no idea why it's not in repos
[14:59] <edakiri> louhusson: sounds like Xorg can not set the video mode correctly.  look in /var/log for relevant logged errors
[15:00] <ActionParsnip> Cdavis: then shrug and say fine. Do what you are told. When they bitch you, say you were told you had other priorities
[15:00] <dabukalam> kajo: try copying everything to the desktop and formatting the drive
[15:00] <jkd4> once you install dockbar how do you begin using it???
[15:00] <aalwiz> i am unable to login my ubuntu desktop.this is the message"The configuration defaults for GNOME Power Manager have not been installed"
[15:00] <ActionParsnip> Cdavis: make regular noise though so they know you are aware. I did that where I worked. Soon made idiot managers pay attention
[15:00] <kajo> dabukalam, is there really no other solution? This is a ridiculous problem. It really disappoints me that I'm running into this with Ubuntu.
[15:00] <kajo> dabukalam, http://paste.ubuntu.com/401201/
[15:01] <Keal> @now
[15:01] <allu2> erUSUL, i have seen that many times, it just tells me how i can play .mid files, not helping me to use my synth on gameport to make piano sound :(
[15:01] <MatBoy> does someone know the command that is made first to print your encryption key for your homedir ?
[15:01] <dabukalam> kajo: yeah, i would definitely format that. it looks horrible
[15:01] <jkd4> once you install dockbar how do you begin using it???
[15:01] <aalwiz> someone pls look into this.i am unable to login my ubuntu desktop.this is the message"The configuration defaults for GNOME Power Manager have not been installed"
[15:01] <MatBoy> cannot remember it
[15:02] <erUSUL> allu2: so you want to sen midi to a external synth ?
[15:02] <dmdevotee> please, is there any way to add launcher to .sh files that NEEDS sudo?
[15:02] <erUSUL> allu2: you should ask maybe in #ubuntustudio
[15:02] <louhusson> edakiri: do you mean the xorg.0.log ?
[15:02] <MatBoy> no-one using encyption on home here ?
[15:02] <WhiteDawn> erUSUL: i think he wants to use a external synth to send midi to the computer
[15:02] <ActionParsnip> Aalwiz: sudo apt-get --reinstall install gnome-power-manager
[15:02] <ActionParsnip> Aalwiz: maybe
[15:02] <edakiri> louhusson: yes
[15:02] <Jimi_Neutral> OK, I have installed pureFTP on my ubuntu webserver box and I can log in to it fine using the log in creds for the actual box but when I add a user using the managemt GUI it sees the name but will not accept the password....any idea how I can solve this?
[15:02] <allu2> erUSUL, i just want to test my synth plugged in gameport so that when i press for example C note  i hear piano C
[15:02] <erUSUL> WhiteDawn: allu2 so is midi keyboard ?
[15:02] <ActionParsnip> Matboy: not worth the heartache so no
[15:03] <louhusson> WhiteDawn: I managed to get internet working, I just had to start nm-applet
[15:03] <WhiteDawn> louhusson: oh ok, good!
[15:03] <siropio> anyone knows what type of video i can use in openoffice?
[15:03] <WhiteDawn> louhusson: sorry about earlyer, school network is crap
[15:03] <p1l0t> I am but I installed once and forgot how to use it, lol.
[15:03] <WhiteDawn> siropio: ogg vorbis?
[15:03] <ActionParsnip> Siropio; i'd ask in #openoffice.org
[15:04] <jkd4> I just want to know how to use a dockbar once you have installed it
[15:04] <allu2> erUSUL, yes
[15:04] <Knofensa> histo are you still here?
[15:04] <louhusson> edakiri: there a lot of stuff and there is no date/time. What shoudl I look for?
[15:04] <siropio> sorry i will check there
[15:04] <pranay_09> hi , i updated my system and now i unable to close , resize or move the window
[15:04] <ActionParsnip> Jimi_neutral: try: sudo passwd usernametochange
[15:04] <jkd4> once you install dockbar how do you begin using it???
[15:05] <erUSUL> allu2: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToQjackCtlConnections <<<< see here
[15:05] <allu2> when i run cat /dev/midi1 everytime i press one key i get nonsense output, so the synth works
[15:05] <dmdevotee> please, is there any way to create a launcher for .sh files that NEEDS sudo to run?
[15:05] <dabukalam> ActionParsnip: there seems to be very little you don't know. Does that apply to LAMP?
[15:05] <Knofensa> meganerd: or are you still here?
[15:05] <ActionParsnip> Jkd: press alt+f2 and type dockbar ,press enter
[15:05] <jkd4> dmdevotee: yes
[15:05] <Gnea> dmdevotee: sure
[15:05] <wad> Hi guys. My system is wanting to undate, but it's telling me that two packages cannot be authenticated: xserver-common and xserver-xorg-core. Should I be concerned about this? I've cancelled the update for now.
[15:05] <jkd4> dmdevotee: yes just put gksudo before the command
[15:06] <jkd4> i think
[15:06] <Jimi_Neutral> ActionParsnip, says user does not exist.....the username i am adding is not a user on the actual box it is only me on that box
[15:06] <ActionParsnip> Dabukalam: I know little of sound ;) for one. Its worth a try. I just websearch stuff. Some users won't websearch for some reason
[15:06] <Knofensa> maybe someone else could help me here...: i want to burn a CDrom but im currently on the a ubuntu live-cd and i cant open the tray..
[15:06] <pranay_09> everytime i have to go to appearacne->desktop effects ->normal effects
[15:06] <erUSUL> allu2: again better help in #ubuntustudio probably
[15:06] <jkd4> I could be wrong
[15:06] <pranay_09> to get it back
[15:06] <dmdevotee> what i have to type on command box if the sh file is in  /media/DATOS/LINUX/GNOME/jd.sh ?
[15:06] <jkd4> once you install dockbar how do you begin using it???
[15:06] <MatBoy> ActionParsnip: kinda stupid on a laptop ;)
[15:06] <ActionParsnip> Jimi_neutral: maybe there is a pureftp command (or whatever server it is) to set the pass
[15:07] <wad> Knofensa, type "eject".
[15:07] <pranay_09> hi , i updated my system and now i unable to close , resize or move the window
[15:07] <ActionParsnip> Matboy: why, its just a small pc with a built in screen...
[15:07] <jkd4> dmdevotee: gksudo /media/DATOS/LINUX/GNOME/jd.sh
[15:07] <Jimi_Neutral> ActionParsnip, yeah it is pure....trying to find something but tbh its all gobbledygook to me still
[15:07] <jkd4> please anyone correct me if I'm wrong
[15:07] <louhusson> edakiri: Sorry I was disconnected ! So what should I look for in Xorg.0.log ?
[15:07] <Gnea> looks right to me
[15:07] <ActionParsnip> Pranay_09: alt+f2 and run; metacity --replace
[15:07] <Knofensa> wad: thanks man!
[15:07] <MatBoy> ActionParsnip: and mostly with very valuable docs @
[15:07] <MatBoy> !
[15:07] <wad> Knofensa, no problem.
[15:08] <ActionParsnip> Jimi_neutral: one way to learn
[15:08] <kostkon> Knofensa, don't forget to run brasero first, before removing the ubutnu cd
[15:08] <jkd4> Gnea: talking to me?
[15:08] <jkd4> once you install dockbar how do you begin using it???
[15:08] <Gnea> jkd4: yeah
[15:08] <p1l0t> matboy what are you using gpg?
[15:08] <ActionParsnip> Matboy: that's why backup exists ;)
[15:08] <MatBoy> p1l0t: yap, standard thingy during the install
[15:08] <louhusson> edakiri: (I was also thinking maybe if I knew what differs between gnome and failsafe gnome I would get an idea of where the issue comes form)
[15:08] <Jimi_Neutral> ActionParsnip, belive me, if i had the time, and i actually wanted to do this i would be reading about it but this has been forced on me just because i knew how to use clonezilla lol
[15:08] <MatBoy> ActionParsnip: or your plans are in the outside world ;)
[15:08] <pranay_09> ActionParsnip: thanks, do i have to do it everytime i boot?
[15:08] <Gnea> jkd4: dockbar?
[15:08] <wasutton3> does anyone know of a program that will automatically organize a music collection based on tags?
[15:09] <dmdevotee> jkd4, thanks!! it asks for root pass but thanks!! works!!
[15:09] <MatBoy> p1l0t: there is a onetime script ran after the install to show it to you, but I can't remember the command
[15:09] <erUSUL> wasutton3: i know easytag can rename files based on tags and viceversa fill tags based on filenames
[15:09] <jkd4> Gnea: I just installed a theme- type thing
[15:09] <jkd4> dmdevotee: no problem
[15:09] <p1l0t> gpg --list-keys
[15:09] <Gnea> jkd4: ah, not familiar with that
[15:10] <jkd4> does anyone know how to start using eyecandy/themes once you have installed them?
[15:10] <patg> Any mac people around?
[15:10] <dmdevotee> jkd4, if i could add this file to a "do not ask for root password" it would be the heaven
[15:10] <theadmin> patg: :/ This is Ubuntu support, why would mac people be here.
[15:10] <Jimi_Neutral> ActionParsnip, ok, virtual users....is that the name for the users that log in to this FTP server that have not got accounts on the box that the server is on?
[15:10] <MatBoy> p1l0t: mhh no output
[15:10] <dmdevotee> jkd4, if i could add this file to a "do not ask for root password" database file it would be the heaven
[15:10] <jkd4> dmdevotee: that would be very unsecure
[15:10] <wasutton3> erUSUL: I have my own tagging system that works fine, i just need to move the files into proper folders
[15:10] <MatBoy> p1l0t: btw, it uses ecrypt by default
[15:11] <dmdevotee> oh
[15:11] <Gnea> jkd4: most themes I've used are just part of the desktop, so I just choose them from the standard theme switcher
[15:11] <jkd4> Gnea: and where is that?
[15:11] <erUSUL> wasutton3: as i said. easytag can rename files based on tags.
[15:11] <jlilly> hey folks. I have evolution version 2.28.1, but I don't seem to have the google calendar plugin they mention on their website. Any clues how to get it / install it / etc ?
[15:11] <patg> @theadmini mean people who run ubuntu on their macs ;-)
[15:11] <Gnea> dmdevotee: it's not asking for root password though, just yours
[15:11] <arch0njw> patg: Is your question about running Ubuntu on a Mac?
[15:11] <Dr_Willis> jkd4:  also most 'theme' stuff is actually theme PARTS you access/select via the customize button/settings in the theme tool
[15:11] <patg> @arch0njw yessiree
[15:11] <Chad__> does anyone have any good guides on setting up vlc on a server?
[15:11] <dmdevotee> gnea: but it i don't give the root pass it won't work, so it needs it, doesn't it?
[15:12] <jkd4> Dr_Willis: where are themes?
[15:12] <Chad__> does anyone have any good guides on setting up vlc on a server to stream?
[15:12] <arch0njw> patg: Not that I know anything, but I thought I would help clarify your inquiry for folks :)
[15:12] <Gnea> jkd4: in the normal place? preferences->display or something like that? been awhile since I've had to access it
[15:12] <dmdevotee> but if*
[15:12] <erUSUL> wasutton3: also exfalso
[15:12] <Gnea> dmdevotee: it's sudo, not su
[15:12] <arch0njw> patg: I'd recommend just asking your question.
[15:12] <Gnea> dmdevotee: that's why gksudo, not gksu
[15:12] <wad> "apt-get update" is giving me: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net karmic Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 4CCE4D718B8503AB
[15:13] <dmdevotee> gnea: sorry i'm novice, and don't know the sudo vd su difference
[15:13] <Gnea> dmdevotee: when you sudo a command, you're putting in YOUR password. the same concept applies to gksudo
[15:13] <MatBoy> p1l0t: if any idea pm me please :)
[15:13] <patg> hello everyone! I am attempting a multi-boot configuration and needed some pointers. I have a MBP and currently a osx partition i am shrinking and a windows partition I am going to shrink after using gparted live cd. I was instructed to put Ubuntu in the middle of them, and use rEFIt after. Do I need to partition swap space or will Ubuntu installer do this for me? and do I install grub or not?
[15:13] <wad> What's the magic trick to fix that?
[15:13] <Dr_Willis> jkd4: for gnome its the 'appearance' menu item in the system/prefs menu
[15:13] <arch0njw> wad: you are using a PPA and have not imported the keys
[15:13] <theadmin> Gnea: Actually, gksu is a symlink or something to the gksudo
[15:13] <Chad__> does anyone have any good guides on setting up vlc on a server to stream?
[15:13] <p1l0t> matboy: not sure what you meant by ecrypt
[15:13] <Dr_Willis> Chad__:  you have checked the vlc homepage/docs?
[15:13] <wad> arch0njw, I did "apt-get update", but that didn't help...
[15:13] <arch0njw> wad: in general, you can ignore that warning.  I tend not to import the keys out of forgetfulness.
[15:13] <eremite> Anyone know how to find out if you are using a VGA or LDSV monitor from terminal?
[15:13] <arch0njw> wad:  you have to follow specific steps to import the keys
[15:13] <wad> arch0njw, okay. I'll just ignore it.
[15:13] <Gnea> dmdevotee: ok, su is the old standard "root access" gateway. sudo is the new standard which allows the user access to root-type accesses without knowing the root password
[15:14] <ActionParsnip> Jimi_neutral: not sure dude. I dropped ftp ages ago. Everything is sent in plaintext including passwords
[15:14] <kostkon> wad, http://blog.launchpad.net/ppa/adding-a-ppas-key-to-ubuntu
[15:14] <Dr_Willis> Theres more to 'sudo' then just a new standard. :)   but most people never use the other features
[15:14] <pranay_09> ActionParsnip:do i have to do it everytime i boot?
[15:14] <Gnea> theadmin: hm, you're right
[15:14] <edakiri> louhusson: I had misunderstood previously.  i did not know it was failsafe gnome that worked.
[15:14] <Jimi_Neutral> ActionParsnip, tbh that is his problem, im just doing what i have been told, on another note i think i have found something but i dont quite get it
[15:14] <Jimi_Neutral> ActionParsnip, can i show it to you
[15:15] <eremite> Anyone know how to find out if you are using a VGA or LDSV monitor from terminal?  ActionParsnip perhaps?
[15:15] <patg> osx multiboot help?
[15:15] <Gnea> dmdevotee: and since ubuntu doesn't have a root password set, you don't have to ever worry about knowing root's password when you just need to know your own
[15:15] <dmdevotee> gnea: but in my case, there is only 1 pass, not 2 passwords for root and user
[15:15] <Dr_Willis> eremite: perhaps check the X log outputs to see what sort of stuff it sees.. but other then that. No idea.
[15:15] <l053R> Is there an elegant way to hide a particular partition from nautilus, regardless of whether it is mounted or not?
[15:15] <edakiri> eremite: xrandr or xdpyinfo perhaps
[15:15] <Gnea> dmdevotee: right, when it asks for a password, it's the same password you use when you login initially
[15:15] <Dr_Willis> eremite:  theres also dvi -> vga adaptors so even then - that might not be accurate
[15:16] <dmdevotee> gnea: so, the root password is secret?
[15:16] <Gnea> dmdevotee: it's not asking for root's password
[15:16] <Dr_Willis> dmdevotee:  there is NO root password by default
[15:16] <Gnea> dmdevotee: yes.
[15:16] <theadmin> dmdevotee: There is no root password.
[15:16] <m_anish>  Hi I am trying to learn basic opengl on my amd64 ubuntu karmic install with intel x3100 graphics chipset on a dell inspiron 1420 laptop... When I compile and run the application, the rendered display doesn't get synced to vblanks of my LCD, however the packaged glxgears application that came with my distro has its rendered framed synced with vblanks... am I missing something in my programming ; code is here http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/kNbMHWqD
[15:16] <jasonk> hey all, installed beta 1 on a dual boot system, everything standard, on reboot, got a grub error 15, any ideas?
[15:17] <theadmin> dmdevotee: Or, rather, password equals when hashed to "!", which makes password... well, unguessable (nothing ever hashed would turn out to be !)
[15:17] <louhusson> edakiri: oh sorry I probably wasn't very clear. Basically I have everything working under Failsafe, I guess I could continue using it but there's probably something wrong since I cannot login normally.
[15:17] <jimcooncat> what is the command to lock the screen?
[15:17] <zamba> jimcooncat: ctrl+alt+l
[15:17] <theadmin> jimcooncat: Ctrl+Alt+L
[15:17] <zamba> theadmin: haha! :)
[15:17] <theadmin> zamba: Err :D
[15:17] <jkd4> Dr_Willis: this is what I'm trying to install http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/DockbarX?content=101604
[15:17] <jimcooncat> no, the command, please. I want to lock the screen after this laptop auto-logs-in
[15:18] <theadmin> jimcooncat: Hmmmm. I think it's got smth to do with Gnome-session, gotta read the mans
[15:18] <rocket16> Wow! The new Green Tea theme is grand!
[15:18] <zamba> jimcooncat: gnome-screensaver-command --lock
[15:18] <usb8gb_> hi, is there tool in ubuntu like system-config-network in Centos?
[15:18] <jimcooncat> thanks zamba
[15:18] <theadmin> zamba: o_O
[15:18] <zamba> jimcooncat: haven't tested, but try it
[15:19] <jimcooncat> zamba: works for me
[15:19] <ActionParsnip> Usb8gb: what does it do that network manager doesn't?
[15:19] <p1l0t> zambo.com
[15:19] <Jimi_Neutral> anyone here use pureftp and can help me with authentication...i think i have found a solution but i sont understand it
[15:20] <pranay_09> how d
[15:20] <pranay_09> how do i open a port in ubuntu 9.10?
[15:20] <DarkStar1> Hello. I was logging on to SAMBA ok then all of a sudden, it seems to be refusing my login
[15:20] <jasonk> hey all, installed beta 1 on a dual boot system, everything standard, on reboot, got a grub error 15, any ideas? this happened with 9.10 as well, 9.04 worked like a charm
[15:20] <DarkStar1> smbclient -L localhost prints the mess
[15:20] <DarkStar1> ameas
[15:20] <DarkStar1> aarrgh,, sorry typos
[15:20] <theadmin> jasonk: #ubuntu+1 for lucid help, but if it happens on 9.10 then... dunno.
[15:21] <ActionParsnip> Pranay_09: unless you have locked them down, they are open
[15:21] <jasonk> ah, sorry, will go there
[15:21] <eremite> xrandr only outputs "default" and not a specific type of monitor (VGA etc)  Anyone know how to tell what kind fo monitor is connected from terminal?
[15:21] <pranay_09> ActionParsnip: all  ports?
[15:21] <Dr_Willis> jkd4:  thats not a theme  and there are repos for that program.
[15:21] <theadmin> ActionParsnip: Wait what? You mean, like, everything is open? Isn't this dangerous?
[15:21] <l053R> Is there an elegant way to hide a particular partition from nautilus, regardless of whether it is mounted or not?
[15:21] <DarkStar1> ok smbclient -L localhost returns: session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE.. with the right password entered
[15:21] <Dr_Willis> jkd4:  check out the dockbarx homepage and look for  'ppa' repositories for it.
[15:22] <dmdevotee> so, i could have one user with his own password and other user with his own password (both different passwords) and both are allowed to do "sudo command etc etc sucessfully"?
[15:22] <DarkStar1> I asked in #samba but it's dead
[15:22] <DarkStar1> no one responds
[15:22] <theadmin> dmdevotee: Yes, but they both must be in "admin" group
[15:22] <p1l0t> DarkStar1: no one ever responds in #samba
[15:22] <Dr_Willis> dmdevotee:  sudo allows such things.. You cold even limit specific users to ONLY specific commands they could 'sudo'
[15:22] <theadmin> Dr_Willis: Can you give me some more info on this?
[15:23] <ActionParsnip> Theadmin: depends how paranoid you are. The security in the apps is great so will be fine. If you are behind a router then the fireeall there is great too. Its one reason why running your desktop as root is really really dumb
[15:23] <DarkStar1> p1l0t: aye
[15:23] <p1l0t> DarkStar1: are you logging in from linux to windows or vis versa?
[15:23] <theadmin> ActionParsnip: Desktop as root? lolwut? This would be a meh
[15:23] <Dr_Willis> theadmin:  on sudo? theres dozens of pages the discuss its ussage. and sudo has its own homepage.
[15:23] <theadmin> Dr_Willis: o_O
[15:23] <Dr_Willis> or did i get confused again. :)
[15:24] <ActionParsnip> Theadmin: tell that to the morons logging in as root then launching web facing apps. Go figure. Its their funeral
[15:24] <theadmin> ActionParsnip: :D
[15:24] <jkd4> Dr_Willis: I did use the ppa repos
[15:25] <theadmin> Dr_Willis: Well, 1) What happened to sudoers.list and this admin group coming from nowhere? 2) How to limit users to specific commands?
[15:25] <jkd4> Dr_Willis: now how do I use the dock bar?
[15:25] <ActionParsnip> Dr_willis: microsoft tried to patent sudo :)
[15:25] <Dr_Willis> jkd4:  then you update/install the tool and its in the add to panel... menu items under the gnome panel settings.
[15:25] <sledgeas> hello
[15:25] <Dr_Willis> jkd4:  same as you add anything else to the panels
[15:25] <Dr_Willis> ActionParsnip:  Yep. :)
[15:25] <ActionParsnip> Hilarious to the max
[15:25] <sledgeas> doing distro-upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04 -- how can I intercept /tmp/jaunty's execution to set my preferred mirrors?
[15:25] <Dr_Willis> ActionParsnip:  but they called it SudoHomePremiumUltimateBasic
[15:25] <solow> What's the command to safe a file in vim? Esc, ctrl+w right?
[15:25] <Dr_Willis> solow:  esc :w
[15:26] <solow> ah :w
[15:26] <solow> thanks
[15:26] <guada> OLA RUBEN
[15:26] <hvgotcodes> do all bash commands return a number indicating success or failure?
[15:26] <Dr_Willis> solow:  check out the vimtutor (or was it vitutor) program some time
[15:26] <guada> ABLAS ESPAÑOL
[15:26] <Myrtti> !es | guada
[15:26] <Dr_Willis> hvgotcodes:  they are supposed to  at least
[15:26] <solow> Dr_Willis, I dont use vim that often, so i dont really feel like learning all of it :)
[15:26] <ActionParsnip> Solow: nano is a little friendlier imho :)
[15:26] <Dr_Willis> I hate nano. :)
[15:27] <hvgotcodes> Dr_Willis, i just started  a new job, part of the job is administering some servers
[15:27] <ActionParsnip> Hvgotcodes: yes
[15:27] <Dr_Willis> vi is worth learning and  learning well.
[15:27] <hvgotcodes> i want to write scripts to simplify my life
[15:27] <geodatma1> good idea
[15:27] <ActionParsnip> Hvgotcodes: sweet. They can do loads. Scripts rock
[15:27] <theadmin> nano is neat, but not very powerful.
[15:27] <hvgotcodes> so writing an 'is environment up' type script, 'deploy' type scripts, etc
[15:27] <patg> any mac multiboot gurus in the place?
[15:27] <solow> ActionParsnip, Vim works just fine. i do wonder, how the .... do I exit vim. :x?
[15:27] <hvgotcodes> how would i determine which ports on the machine are up?
[15:27] <ActionParsnip> Solow: not used it. I find nano is enough
[15:28] <theadmin> hvgotcodes: "up"?
[15:28] <Dr_Willis> solow:  esc :q or :wq
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> Hvgotcodes: netstat -a
[15:28] <kcantin> Can someone please tell me the command to find out what kind of monitor I am using i.e. VGA, LVDS etc???
[15:28] <hvgotcodes> ActionParsnip, thanx lemme try that
[15:28] <solow> Dr_Willis, and :wq is safe and quit.
[15:28] <solow> save*
[15:28] <Dr_Willis> solow:  or :q!
[15:28] <kcantin> currently, xrandr outputs "default"
[15:28] <Dr_Willis> solow:  yes i know.. Ive read the docs/books on Vi/Vim :)
[15:28] <solow> save without any changes?
[15:28] <solow> no i was guessing, i didnt know.
[15:29] <ActionParsnip> Kcantin: sudo lshw | less ,may say. I'd just look round the back of the monitor personally
[15:29] <hvgotcodes> ActionParsnip, im not understanding the output; but i dont see any ports
[15:29] <Dr_Willis> learn vi basics.. then start building up. :) the vi X gui versions are handy to help you learn some of the commands also.
[15:29] <hvgotcodes> ActionParsnip, when i do netstat -anp | grep 8443 i see that a process is listening on that port
[15:29] <hvgotcodes> for example
[15:30] <hvgotcodes> i want output like that, but for all ports that have processes listening
[15:30] <eremite> NANO> EMACS > VIM
[15:31] <jsec> When I apt update, it often freezes for a while on 99% - Waiting for Headers. Does anyone know why this might happen?
[15:31] <eremite> jsec: me too
[15:31] <Axius> When will Ubuntu 10.04 release?
[15:31] <Jimi_Neutral> im trying to add a user with command line on pureFTP but it is coming back with make sure user does not exist error
[15:31] <eremite> Axius: late April.
[15:31] <Axius> eremite, How late?
[15:32] <ActionParsnip> Hvgotcodes: none
[15:32] <patryk_> witam wszystkim wlasnie smigam na ubuntu:)
[15:32] <patg> anyone know of any apple/ubuntu irc help places? every one i find is empty
[15:32] <hvgotcodes> ActionParsnip, i dont understand
[15:32] <kcantin> ActionParsnip, thanks!
[15:32] <eremite> Axius: April 29th\
[15:32] <hvgotcodes> i just did netstat -anp | grep -i listen
[15:32] <Dr_Willis> Axius:  when its done..  :)
[15:32] <hvgotcodes> that seems to be closer
[15:32] <sledgeas> i have a fast mirror next to me, how can i make the do-release-upgrade from that mirror?
[15:32] <MartyMcFly> hi
[15:32] <Myrtti> !pl | patryk_
[15:32] <Axius> ok
[15:32] <robert__> hello all
[15:33] <Emanon> !hi | robert__
[15:33] <ActionParsnip> Hvgotcodes: I get no output. If I grep for a port I know is listening I get output
[15:33] <andrek> de.net
[15:33] <robert__> can someone help me with a script
[15:33] <MartyMcFly> i want to use the "image" driver of lcd4linux at a ubuntu-server box. i always get the message: "Error 13: 'problems connecting to "localhost" on port 6600: Connection refused' Error: Cannot connect to MPD! Is MPD started?" but i don't configured something with MPD in my lcd4linux.cond
[15:33] <kcantin> ActionParsnip, for xrandr what does it need to know exactly?
[15:33] <ActionParsnip> Hvgotcodes: if you read the local address you will see an ip and after the colon is a port number
[15:33] <__uzi> how to make rows in openoffice writer?
[15:34] <kcantin> Monitor Make, Model, Serial Number???
[15:34] <robert__> sudo cp resolv.conf /etc
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> Kcantin: not sure. I don't use xrandr
[15:34] <robert__> "sudo cp resolv.conf /etc"
[15:34] <tomusic> hi, my desktop is black and doesnt show the files i placed there anymore. i i open Desktop via "places" and "Desktop" my files are available. How can i fix it to show them on my desktop?
[15:34] <hvgotcodes> ActionParsnip, right, i did not see that after -a
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> Kcantin: why not just look at the back of the monitor?
[15:35] <Martuki> 0la
[15:35] <ActionParsnip> Hvgotcodes: -a means the (a)ctive portd
[15:35] <NathanBP> Hey all :) Quick question: is Ubuntu Server edition completely command-line?
[15:35] <ActionParsnip> Ports
[15:35] <__uzi> NathanBP: yes, the default installation
[15:35] <ActionParsnip> Nathanbp: yes. If you need a desktop install the desktop system
[15:36] <hvgotcodes> ActionParsnip, ok, im new at this so you can explain it like you would to an idiot? ;)
[15:36] <hvgotcodes> i see : tcp        0      0 *:ssh                       *:*                         LISTEN
[15:36] <hvgotcodes> something like that
[15:36] <Martuki> hello?
[15:36] <hvgotcodes> so there is no port there
[15:36] <patg> need apple/ubuntu help ;-(
[15:36] <__uzi> anyone know how to make rows in openoffice writer?
[15:37] <ActionParsnip> hvgotcodes: true but the rfc standard says port 22. If you change it in /etc/ssh/sshd_config it will show a port number
[15:37] <andrespp> hvgotcodes: try netstat -ant
[15:37] <NathanBP> Thanks ActionParsnip and __uzi.  I want a desktop install, but with the power of the server install.... any way I can do that?
[15:37] <__uzi> NathanBP: its almost the same...
[15:37] <recon69_lap> anyone know how to get sound to work through hdmi?
[15:37] <ActionParsnip> Nathanbp: the desktop has all the power of the desktop
[15:38] <hvgotcodes> andrespp, close, i think -anp is better
[15:38] <tomusic> my desktop is black and doesnt show the files i placed there anymore.  when i open Desktop via "places" and "Desktop" my files are available. How can i fix it to show them on my desktop?
[15:38] <tomusic> anyone?
[15:38] <hvgotcodes> -ant did not show the process
[15:38] <NathanBP> ActionParsnip: um... not sure I understand what you just said "the desktop has all the power of the desktop"?
[15:38] <ActionParsnip> Nathanbp: the server install doesn't come with an x server and has pae enabled by default. If you need a desktop, install the desktop system
[15:39] <__uzi> NathanBP: i think he means that the desktop has all the power of the server
[15:39] <ActionParsnip> Nathanbp: if you install a desktop on the server it will be exactly the same as if you'd installed the desktop. You won't gain anything. Servers don't have desktops for security and to use less resources
[15:40] <__uzi> how to make rows in openoffice writer? (similar to columns but horizontal)
[15:40] <tomusic> oh, and when i power my computer down, my wallpaper is shown for a second...
[15:40] <tomusic> its really weird
[15:40] <__uzi> anyone plz help
[15:40] <tomusic> its a fesh install, like an hour ago
[15:40] <tomusic> 50 minutes...
[15:41] <hvgotcodes> Does a process (like ssh) always connect to a certain port?  So does the following make sense? "the firewall has port 22 open.  sshd connects to port 22"?
[15:41] <NathanBP> Thanks ActionParsnip and __uzi -- Will it install automatically with the LAMP stack?
[15:41] <ActionParsnip> Hvgotcodes: sshd uses 22 by default but you can change it for security
[15:41] <__uzi> NathanBP: install normal desktop and use synaptics to install them
[15:41] <erUSUL> hvgotcodes: is ssh the client that connects to port 22 sshd the server is listening on it
[15:42] <ActionParsnip> Nathanbp: you can add lamp after you install the desktop from the repo
[15:42] <hvgotcodes> ActionParsnip, how would i determine the difference between port 22 is available, but a process is not using it?
[15:42] <hvgotcodes> would i be look for the LISTEN in the netstat  -anp output?
[15:42] <ActionParsnip> Hvgotcodes: netstat should show it listening on its configured port
[15:42] <tomusic> ok, how do i restart x windows? /etc/init.d/xwindowserver restart?
[15:43] <ActionParsnip> Tomusic: alt+k+printscreen
[15:43] <tomusic> thanks
[15:43] <NathanBP> ActionParsnip: I'm not that good with command lines and repos yet (hence why I still need the desktop).
[15:44] <tomusic> i'm prompted to save a screenshot?

[15:50] <Roasted> my network manager applet says I have 20% signal, yet when I click it and hit the drop down, I see my network has 80% strength. Wifi-Radar also confirms that my signal strength is right around 80% to my particular AP. Wonder why network manager is showing 20% in the menu, yet 80% when you open it? Silly network manager...

[15:53] <anubis> thanks guys
[15:53] <NathanBP> __uzi: so I already installed the server edition before I came here (thinking it'd have the option to include a desktop).  So how do I uninstall it---or at least restore the boot sector so that it no longer loads GRUB when booting the computer?
[15:53] <histo> DarkStar1: do you want the shares to have usernames and passwords?

[15:53] <p1l0t> DarkStar1: Sometimes multiple logins for the same user causes a problem with windows. Not sure why, but sometimes rebooting them fixes the problem. Not sure if thats the best option but it has worked for me.
[15:53] <DarkStar1> brummbaer: yes
[15:54] <patg> histo: sipior: I am trying to set up a multiboot
[15:54] <histo> DarkStar1: can you pastebin your smb.conf
[15:54] <patg> I am attempting a multi-boot configuration and needed some pointers. I have a MBP and currently a osx partition i am shrinking and a windows partition I am going to shrink after using gparted live cd. I was instructed to put Ubuntu in the middle of them, and use rEFIt after. Do I need to partition swap space or will Ubuntu installer do this for me? and do I install grub or not?
[15:54] <DarkStar1> histo: they already do

[15:59] <leagris> aj_, you may upgrade to karmic after s/jaunty/karmic int your sources files and apt-get update apt-get dist-upgrade
[16:00] <robert__> anyone wanna try??
[16:00] <histo> DarkStar1: i'd pastebin mine but stupid pastebinit isn'tworking hre

[16:02] <Alexa> a one moment plis
[16:02] <Alexa> atender
[16:02] <odemux686> someone knows why my router automatically opens port 30,005, but it reset to factory defaults?
[16:02] <jsec> !es | Alexa
[16:02] <leagris> aj_, you could try download the source package and rebuild it within your jaunty
[16:02] <Alexa> one moment
[16:03] <Roasted> whats a good application to use that'll show all access points (even with the same SSID) with their corresponding signal strength?
[16:03] <jsec> does anyone know where i could get the source for a specific system call? not the entire kernel.
[16:03] <aj_> leagris, i might just try that.  i'm download ing the tarball now.  thanks
[16:03] <abstrakt> Alexa, learn to speak english
[16:03] <Alexa> ok.
[16:03] <nfm> lol
[16:03] <abstrakt> Alexa, that includes using proper spelling
[16:03] <sipior> jsec: install "dev-manpages", then try man -k
[16:03] <Sniper777> http://www.imagebam.com/image/27d95e73446943
[16:04] <sipior> abstrakt: leave off.
[16:04] <abstrakt> Alexa, hell it's easier to use proper spelling than it is to speak a frickin language anyway, you can lookup proper spelling, you'll almost never get rid of a foreign accent
[16:04] <Alexa> +tell me something i dont know!!
[16:04] <DarkStar1> back
[16:04] <Sniper777> linuxdc++
[16:05] <tomusic> my wallpaper is changing every five minutes... how can i stop that?
[16:05] <jsec> abstrakt, that's frickinG. if you're going to be nitpicky, at least please use the language correctly yourself.
[16:05] <jimcooncat> I set up autologon on this laptop, how can I have nm-applet stop from asking for a password?
[16:05] <jsec> sipior, that only tells me what the sytem call does, i'm looking for the actual source for the call
[16:06] <sipior> jsec: then grab the kernel sources, of course. also, the package name is "manpages-dev" (i always reverse that)
[16:06] <aj_> jimcooncat, i have the same issue..so i chose the unsafe route and used no password.  now iam no longer bothered by nm
[16:06] <LekeFly> Master Boot Record is stored on the hardrive right... ? so if i take out hard disk 1 and insert hard disk 2.. install windows on it.. then just insert hard disk 1.. ? will that work
[16:07] <abstrakt> jsec, no actually it's frickin, no one i know actually pronounces it with the full ing at the end, and given that i'm a native speaker, it's legit for me to use colloquial expressions, i.e. leaving off the g on a word that ends with 'ing'
[16:07] <jsec> sipior, i have them, i just didn't want to wade through all of them to find a single system call if there was an easier way about it >_<. thanks for the help though.
[16:07] <Roasted> whats a good application to use that'll show all access points (even with the same SSID) with their corresponding signal strength?
[16:07] <sipior> abstrakt: jsec: let's stay on topic, gentlemen.
[16:07] <jimcooncat> aj_, this needs a password as user will walk away and screensaver needs to kick on. I just want to autologon as I have a bios password set, and user doesn't have to be bothered halfway during startup to logon
[16:07] <martin101> hello all, how can I get evince to always stop showing the toolbar?
[16:07] <martin101> and the sidebar
[16:08] <aj_> Roasted, maybe have you tried wifi radar?
[16:08] <aj_> jimcooncat, i see.  sorry that i am unable to help further
[16:09] <Roasted> aj_, Im using wifi radar, but its signal strength meters seem to be relatively... random. I'll be at an access point and for 10 seconds have 0% signal, then 100%, then 20%, then 0%, etc. I was looking for something a little more consistent.
[16:09] <LekeFly> Need some help with installing Windows guys.. Master Boot Record is stored on the hardrive right... ? so if i take out hard disk 1 and insert hard disk 2.. install windows on it.. then just insert hard disk 1.. ? will that work
[16:10] <imp|cat> afaik nm needs the password to open the password storage and retrieve your credentials for wifi; I had this issue as well and the solution for me was to disable automatic login - it is less annoying that way (the initial system login unlocks the wifi password storage)
[16:10] <jimcooncat> I need to find a way to get to the keyring, so I can try creating a new one. I don't see System > Preferences > Encryption and Keyrings in Karmic.
[16:10] <histo> DarkStar1: here's mine http://paste.ubuntu.com/401227/
[16:10] <pranay_09> isn't it insecure if all ports are open in ubuntu?
[16:10] <pranay_09> how do i close any port?
[16:10] <histo> DarkStar1: the share is at the bottom
[16:10] <sipior> pranay_09: if there's nothing listening on that port, it is already closed :-)
[16:10] <histo> pranay_09: no
[16:11] <aj_> jimcooncat, is seahorse-preferences what you are after?
[16:11] <pranay_09> sipior:how do i close any port?
[16:12] <jimcooncat> aj_ I bet it is
[16:12] <tahnok> hello
[16:12] <antonio_> ciao
[16:12] <sipior> pranay_09: halt the service which is using the port.
[16:12] <Norm> call me dense... but why can't i seem to find the option to download an IMG (bootable for usb) version of ubuntu instead of the regular ISO?

[16:13] <tahnok> I'm trying to figure out how to power down one of the hybrid video cards in my laptop
[16:13] <tahnok> can anyone help me with that?
[16:13] <DarkStar1> histo: I'm replacing the conf file with the default and copying over the shares
[16:13] <BluesKaj> Norm, read above , check the urls
[16:13] <Norm> BluesKaj: will check it out, thanks
[16:14] <histo> DarkStar1: some of the key options are security = share and forceuser and forcegroup that way files don't get all jacked when they are written to the share.
[16:14] <histo> DarkStar1: and guest access
[16:14] <Dr_Willis> tahnok:  sounds liek a very new feture that may have very little linux support at this time.
[16:14] <DarkStar1> histo: here's the pastebin of the new conf: http://www.pastebin.org/123048
[16:15] <Dr_Willis> tahnok:  that one of those alienwares that have 2 video cards?
[16:15] <tahnok> Dr_Willis: it is
[16:15] <fredim> where are the settings of the remote control ...   everything is configured automatically. but would like to change
[16:15] <fredim> lirc
[16:15] <tahnok> I don't care about switching, I just want to power off the nvidia card
[16:15] <hechu> Norm, here is a useful URL: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/
[16:15] <socket_77> tahnok: Can you disable it in the BIOS?
[16:15] <Dr_Willis> tahnok:  so new - i would be suprised if any linux supports  the fancy features.  I was looking at those laptops also. :)
[16:15] <tahnok> the bios let's me select which card to use
[16:16] <tahnok> so at the moment it's set to integrate
[16:16] <tahnok> but linux is still powering the other card
[16:16] <rabbit1> whats the file size of ubuntu-9.10-desktop-amd64.iso ?
[16:16] <Dr_Willis> tahnok:  i find that with 'cutting edge/brand new laoptops' its often  a few months befor linux catches up to  handle all the new stuff
[16:16] <histo> DarkStar1: make sure you restart samba for it to take the new config. sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[16:16] <tahnok> Dr_Willis: The laptop runs like a charm atm, except for the bad battery
[16:16] <DarkStar1> histo:  your Security = share option is commented out
[16:16] <Dr_Willis> tahnok:  and thats a VERY new cutting edge feature.  Im not even sure  if removeing/unloading the nvidia driver would help
[16:17] <xiven> Hi guys
[16:17] <Dr_Willis> tahnok:  You can guess what im planing on asking the wife to get me for Xmas. :)
[16:17] <rabbit1> file size of ubuntu-9.10-desktop-amd64.iso is 690.8 MB?
[16:17] <tahnok> Dr_Willis: I don't believe I have any of the nvidia drivers installed
[16:17] <histo> DarkStar1: yeah it still reads it though.
[16:17] <Dr_Willis> rabbit1:  that sounda about right.
[16:17] <pragma_> xiven: do we look like your friends?
[16:17] <xiven> I am looking for an appropriate command to check for a local on any program that has 'xxxx' in its name...
[16:17] <wolfeyes> Who uses imagemagick here?
[16:17] <Dr_Willis> tahnok:  i wonder if the support for the thing is part of the nvidia drivers theirselfs under windows
[16:17] <rabbit1> Dr_Willis: ??
[16:18] <xiven> pragma> I don't know..I can't see you :P
[16:18] <DopeGhoti> xiven: what aspect of it are you wanting to audit?
[16:18] <tahnok> I believe acpi has a command to tell a certain device to power off
[16:18] <Dr_Willis> rabbit1:  its 1 cd. so yes. that looks right.
[16:18] <aj_> When i resume this laptop from suspend, the screen is black.  is there a way to fix this?  i'm using jaunty 9.04
[16:18] <masu3701> how to convert word doc to pdf?
[16:18] <DarkStar1> histo: I read that it doesn't read it. the default is seucrity = users so it will act in that way
[16:18] <tahnok> but I don't know where to look for that\
[16:18] <robert__> masu.....
[16:18] <tahnok> masu3701: there's an option in open office to save a file as a pdf
[16:18] <DopeGhoti> xiven: There's iotop, pstree, top, netstat, lsof…
[16:18] <robert__> print to file
[16:18] <xiven> Well, if bash finds a program which name contains 'xxxx', then it would print the location of that such program
[16:18] <masu3701> cool
[16:19] <rabbit1> Dr_Willis: i currently in 32 bit hardy, thinking of lucid 64 bit in future, so before, shall i change to 64 bit hardy ?
[16:19] <wolfeyes> masu3701, I want to convert a whole bunch of files in a folder, but how do you write that exactly, anyone!
[16:19] <robert__> are you using openoffice??
[16:19] <masu3701> tahnok: and that file cant be modify?
[16:19] <DarkStar1> histo:  replacing the conf file hasn't helped at all
[16:19] <Dr_Willis> rabbit1:  if i can run 64bit on a machine i Alwaays run 64bit...
[16:19] <DarkStar1> it refuses any authentication
[16:19] <rawr> hey
[16:19] <Dr_Willis> rabbit1:  i dont see muchj need to stick with 32bit on a machine that can do 64bit
[16:19] <tahnok> masu3701: it's a pdf file, so if you have software that edits pdf it should work
[16:19] <brummbaer> darkstar1: i hope you're restarting smbd after updating your conf?
[16:19] <rabbit1> Dr_Willis: s i can (AMD 64bit)
[16:19] <DarkStar1> brummbaer:  yes!
[16:19] <tahnok> anyone know anything about acpi?
[16:20] <brummbaer> darkstar1: just checkin' ;)
[16:20] <DarkStar1> brummbaer: I actually stopped then started it
[16:20] <DarkStar1> brummbaer: think I'll just uninstall and re-install samba
[16:20] <hechu> xiven, I don't know maybe this is what you need " find ./ | grep 'xxx' "
[16:20] <Dr_Willis> tahnok:  i know its the kind of system that new hardware often has issues with untill kernel patches/fix's/drivers catch up :)
[16:20] <rabbit1> Dr_Willis: my ques is shall i straight install lucid 64 or shall i install 64 hardy then upgrade ?
[16:20] <odemux686> someone knows why my router automatically opens port 30,005, but it reset to factory defaults, the UPnP is turned off?
[16:20] <brummbaer> darkstar1, 's an option...
[16:20] <masu3701> tahnok: i will send the doc through email and didnt want it to be modify..thats why i was thinking about putin in pdf
[16:20] <brummbaer> darkstar1: be sure to purge though if you want to reset config
[16:20] <DarkStar1> well nothing seems to work
[16:20] <Dr_Willis> rabbit1:  lucid will be relesaed in a few weeks.. so wait.. or  not.. its your choice..
[16:21] <aj_> wolfeyes, imagemagic is a very complex (but well documented) software.  they have a good user community, you might have better luck asking at their forums
[16:21] <tahnok> Dr_Willis: apparently there's work being done with a vga_switcharoo that let's you switch on the fly
[16:21] <DarkStar1> brummbaer: purge what?
[16:21] <brummbaer> when you remove
[16:21] <Dr_Willis> tahnok:  yep. thats a good sign at least.
[16:21] <tahnok> masu3701: then pdf is a good choice
[16:21] <wolfeyes> aj_, and where do I find that please?
[16:21] <Dr_Willis> tahnok:  ive had very weird issues with 'new' laptops and linux in the past.
[16:21] <DarsVaeda1> how do i mount a internal dvd burning device?
[16:21] <xixi> olaaa
[16:22] <xixi> waroooo
[16:22] <masu3701> tahnok: but you said someone can still modify it? is there a way to lock it so it cant be modify?
[16:22] <aj_> wolfeyes, http://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/
[16:22] <wolfeyes> ty aj_ , going to look
[16:22] <tahnok> masu3701: probably, but if it's a pdf they will have a lot of trouble modifying it
[16:22] <spazic> whats the package to use to install slocate?
[16:23] <Dr_Willis> !fins slocate
[16:23] <Dr_Willis> !find slocate
[16:23] <masu3701> ok
[16:23] <hechu> Darkfoe, there is a GUI tool named " brasero " can burn CD/DVD.
[16:23] <Dr_Willis> I thought the locate command and the updatedb commands were installed by default
[16:23] <odemux686> someone knows why my router automatically opens port 30,005, but it reset to factory defaults, the UPnP is turned off?
[16:23] <spazic> it doesnt work for me
[16:23] <DarsVaeda1> how do i mount a internal dvd burning device?
[16:24] <spazic> says slocate unknown command
[16:24] <Jimi_Neutral> HI all, how do I set it so that ftp users can upload to pureftp as well as download. For some reason I an download from the folder I am connected to but I cannot upload to it
[16:24] <Dr_Willis> locate - is usesd to 'find' programs/files.. not sure about slocate
[16:24] <DarkStar1> histo: my smbusers file only has 2 lines. one for root and one for nobody. should it also reflect the permited users listed under 'valid users' in the shares?
[16:24] <Miguelanxo> Hi there!
[16:25] <Dr_Willis> No command 'slocate' found, did you mean:
[16:25] <pragma_> Miguelanxo: what's your dumb question?
[16:25] <Dr_Willis> ... so looks like thers no slocate command :)
[16:25] <sine`> hi guys
[16:25] <aj_> odemux686, do you have any MSwondows computers on your network?
[16:25] <sine`> how do i delete a file
[16:25] <Miguelanxo> I just copied and old ubuntu install to a new server and now the interface name eth0 is renamed to eth1 at start. Why? where do I change the hardware->ip address relationship?
[16:25] <sine`> sudo rm thefile
[16:25] <nfm> rm -v <file>?
[16:26] <nfm> what he said
[16:26] <sine`> ok ta
[16:26] <nfm> oh that was you :)
[16:27] <Dr_Willis> Miguelanxo:  you could blacklist the module for the other NIC.  but does it really matter?  I recall some forum/wiki pages also on moveing eth0 and eth1 around. but ive never had to mess with it much
[16:27] <aj_> odemux686, sorry typo *MS Windows
[16:27] <DarkStar1> Another quick question is there a way to display users and the ip they're connecting from on the system?
[16:27] <StryKaizer> Can I run multiple versions of php, depending on the vhost?
[16:27] <nfm> use last
[16:27] <Dr_Willis> DarkStar1:  some of the many /var/log/* files proberly logs that. depending on the service they are using
[16:28] <DarkStar1> Dr_Willis: I just typed users and noticed I'm listed 3 times instead of twice. I am logged in via SSH from another machine]
[16:28] <paraplegicpanda> Hey all, has anyone ever worked with Gizmod?
[16:29] <masu3701> tahnok: so what would be the option in openoffice to save doc to pfd?
[16:29] <odemux686> aj_: yes, but not now
[16:29] <masu3701> i dont see it
[16:29] <tahnok> it's under file
[16:29] <dabukalam> masu3701: open as a doc, then go file > export as pdf?
[16:30] <louissam> hh
[16:30] <sagar> masu3701, isnt there a logo of pdf visible click it
[16:30] <aj_> odemux686, it might be infected with trojan virus : http://www.speedguide.net/port.php?port=30005
[16:30] <DarkStar1> Dr_Willis: is this normal to be listed 3 times instead of twice in this scenario?
[16:30] <Dr_Willis> DarkStar1:  sounds about right
[16:30] <paraplegicpanda> Has anyone here ever worked with Gizmod? I'm trying to get a gaming peripheral working but I'm having trouble writing the Python script.
[16:30] <Dr_Willis> DarkStar1:  subshells often get counted
[16:31] <LinuxGuy2009> Is there any way to see when an updated package was created and added to the repos? The one I'm interested in is cups (1.3.9-17ubuntu3.7) for Jaunty. I ask because I have a bug filed against cups and am wondering if it was made before or after my filed bug and might be a possible fix.
[16:31] <Miguelanxo_> done!
[16:31] <wolfeyes> aj_, ty but still a bit rusty on how to write those commands, will keep looking
[16:31] <Jimi_Neutral> anyone have any idea why i can download from my ftp server but not upload...im using pureftp
[16:32] <jellow> Having sound issues it plays for a bit then stop and start making a poping cracking noise
[16:32] <aj_> wolfeyes, there might be a GUI frontend or something out there maybe keep searching.  good luck :)
[16:32] <xiven> Will the Remote Desktop tool in Linux work together with the Remote assistance stuff in Windows
[16:32] <xiven> I mean, can it connect to a Windows machine for provide assistance?
[16:33] <odemux686> aj_: that was what I feared, but as I remove the router?

[16:33] <aj_> paraplegicpanda, maybe have you tried their help forum?  http://sourceforge.net/projects/gizmod/forums/forum/467994
[16:33] <DarkStar1> Dr_Willis: http://pastebin.org/123077 does this mean tdbsam is corrupted?
[16:33] <histo> Seems like latest updates borked something.
[16:34] <vinu> is there any video converter
[16:34] <aj_> odemux686, the only way to tell for sure, is maybe shutdown the windowsPC then reboot the router...but this discussion seems better for a different channel
[16:34] <itranger> was wondering about setting up the wizbangs for compiz on the ubuntu 9.10 netbook remix
[16:34] <paraplegicpanda> I updated yesterday and I can mount cds just finme.
[16:34] <Dr_Willis> DarkStar1:  ive never used that command.. or seen that error.. so not sure.
[16:34] <Jimi_Neutral> like #windows
[16:34] <itranger> do they work>
[16:34] <racerd1> anyone run across a login screen bug?

[16:35] <racerd1> states Permission Denied when you try to log in?
[16:35] <Dr_Willis> itranger:  the UNR version  i think really dosent want/use Compiz - im not sure UNR install even has compiz by default.

[16:35] <BinariDragon> racerd1: you dont have permission to log in
[16:35] <aj_> sine`, avidemux
[16:35] <hechu> sine`, in console or a terminal emulator runs" rm filename.ext".
[16:35] <DarkStar1> can someone take a look at this pastebin and tell me if it means the file in question is corrupted pls? http://pastebin.org/123077
[16:36] <racerd1> BD you should probably go punch yourself in the groin
[16:36] <hechu> or in GUI file manager, right click it and select "delete"
[16:36] <racerd1> this is for the greater good
[16:36] <odemux686> aj_: sorry but I do not use MSWindows
[16:36] <itranger> yeah....i was just wondering..kind of liked the aesthetics of compiz in regular Ubuntu, but I like the setup of netbook remix

[16:36] <LinuxGuy2009> sine`: Some say kdenlive is like a linux equivalent to Sony Vegas Pro.

[16:37] <paraplegicpanda> Has anyone here ever worked with Gizmod? I'm trying to get a gaming peripheral working but I'm having trouble writing the Python script.
[16:37] <jimcooncat> aj_ I got it to go! All I had to do was to go to the wireless Network Connection, and tell it to allow all users to use it.
[16:37] <jimcooncat> No prompt for password after that.
[16:37] <itranger> Dr_Willis, thanks for the response
[16:38] <aj_> jimcooncat, glad to hear it..we both learned something today :)

[16:47] <nishchal> thanks anyways
[16:47] <Myrtti> !ask | nishchal
[16:47] <paraplegicpanda> Okay, can anyone with programming experience help me out? A full explanation of my problem can be found here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1438431
[16:48] <nishchal> there seems to be a problem when i doot from ubuntu dvd... the installtion turns into green verticle lines
[16:49] <nishchal> my system is nforce 7 machine, the installation works fine on intel machine
[16:49] <LinuxGuy2009> nishchal: Which ubuntu release? 9.10?
[16:49] <nishchal> yeah
[16:49] <paraplegicpanda> nishchal: Have you tried starting it with a different video driver?
[16:49] <nishchal> how can i do that?
[16:50] <caferrari> hello, is the ATI catalyst 10.3 working in the LL ? anyone know?
[16:50] <nishchal> is there a way to load drivers during installation phase???
[16:51] <sine`> !ask filesystem
[16:51] <LekeFly> How should i get windows to a usb stick with ubuntu.. ?
[16:51] <nishchal> or is there a way to just boot ubuntu 9.1 into non gui system.. so later u can change/switch drivers etc
[16:51] <paraplegicpanda> One sec, I'm looking it up. I haven't had to do it in a while
[16:53] <jordy240> hi how can I see what partition my ubuntu is currently installed on?
[16:53] <paraplegicpanda> When you boot the disc, after selecting a language, there should be an option for using different video drivers, or booting with X.
[16:54] <nishchal> after selecting language, i choose install on hdd and then screen goes kinda blank.. with some verticle lines...(seems like its running  on 4 bit colors)
[16:55] <l053R> What's the proper way to copy the contents of a loopback device (mounted iso9660) onto a partition, other than dd, since the destination partition may be of a different size/fs. 'cp' doesn't feel eight, for some reason...
[16:55] <pabelanger> anybody have experience using distcc with Ubuntu?
[16:55] <paraplegicpanda> One sec... I'm looking for the exact option. It will be in the same list as the install option
[16:55] <Mkools> Dr_Willis: I want to create my own DHCP server with in my college internet is it possible? How to do it? Am I following correct links: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/dhcp3-server
[16:56] <l053R> right that is...
[16:56] <nishchal> first i thought it was problem of ubuntu, then i tried installing Mint, but it has similar problem
[16:56] <Knofensa> histo im back with the newer version
[16:56] <LinuxGuy2009> nishchal: I too had major issues with 9.10 including boot issues. They packed in so much new stuff in 9.10 to prep for 10.04 LTS that it suffered a bit of quality IMO. Your not the only one though. I have been using 9.04 which runs incredibly well. And Im waiting for 10.04 myself.
[16:56] <Myrtti> nishchal: would you feel confident on using a pseudo-GUI to install?
[16:56] <LekeFly> How should i get windows to a usb stick with ubuntu.. ?
[16:56] <nishchal> well if i can just install the thing, that would be nice
[16:56] <Mkools> l053R: are you talking to me?
[16:57] <Myrtti> nishchal: it might be that your problems with the install are limited to only the install phase and using alternate disc to install might work better
[16:57] <Knofensa> can someone help me install adobe flash player for firefox?
[16:57] <robin> k dixiedancer
[16:57] <jordy240> does anyone know how I can see partition info that my ubuntu is installed on?
[16:57] <LinuxGuy2009> nishchal: If the normal CD doesnt work you can try the alternate CD. You may be better off waiting for 10.04 or go back to 9.04.
[16:57] <Myrtti> jordy240: what do you mean by seeing the partition?
[16:58] <socket_77> jordy240: do a df -H
[16:58] <nishchal> well i used the same DVD and installed the sstem on "virtual box" and it worked like a charm
[16:58] <switchgirl> calc:4+4
[16:58] <switchgirl> !calc:4+4
[16:58] <eremite> jordy240: open a terminal and type df
[16:58] <LinuxGuy2009> Knofensa: visit adobe.com and download the deb and double click to install.
[16:58] <socket_77> switchgirl: 8
[16:58] <jordy240> got it. THANKS!!
[16:58] <nishchal> i m pretty sure its cause of nvidia drivers
[16:59] <l053R> Mkools: no.
[16:59] <Knofensa> linuxguy2009 thanks alot
[16:59] <caferrari> Anyone here have LL and an ATI card? i wanna know if the Catalyst Driver 10.3 is working in the LL Beta

[17:01] <sipior> paraplegicpanda: i think you need to find a more specialised channel. Does GizmoD have a forum you could try?
[17:02] <paraplegicpanda> I've posted in the Gizmod forum but the last interaction on it was almost a year ago. I have also posted on UbuntuForums, LnuxForums, and LinuxQuestions with no luck so far.
[17:03] <nishchal> ok may be i'll try something...... :)... thanks guys for ur help.... may be i'll pop here soon
[17:03]  * switchgirl is oddly in love with a man
[17:03] <switchgirl> http://www.noob.us/humor/i-think-i-love-this-man/
[17:03] <sipior> paraplegicpanda: you may be out of luck, i'm afraid. perhaps try contacting the developers directly?
[17:03] <switchgirl> :s
[17:03] <FloodBot1> switchgirl: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:04] <Mkools> Can anyone help
[17:04] <sipior> switchgirl: off topic here, i imagine.
[17:04] <LinuxGuy2009> Mkools: We dont know yet.
[17:04] <switchgirl> oops
[17:04] <arunbabu> how to know in which partition i have installed winxp ? i am trying to setup dual boot system
[17:04] <Mkools> LinuxGuy2009: What?
[17:04] <LinuxGuy2009> Mkools: Whats your question?
[17:04] <switchgirl> sorry thought this was #ubuntu-offtopic
[17:05] <paraplegicpanda> sipior: I suppose that's my only option at this point. You wouldn't be able to point me towards a more useful Python coding channel, would you? I believe that a Python developer could be my best bet besides the original program developer.
[17:05] <tp43_> arunbabu, fdisk
[17:05] <Mkools> I want to create my own DHCP server with in my college internet is it possible? How to do it? Am I following correct links: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/dhcp3-server
[17:05] <sipior> paraplegicpanda: well, there's always #python, here on freenode.
[17:06] <arunbabu> tp43_: fdisk -l ?
[17:07] <arunbabu> tp43_: partition table is not showing up?
[17:07] <arunbabu> !!
[17:07] <sipior> Mkools: well, it's certainly possible, but the local administrators might have a few words for you :-)
[17:07] <LekeFly> Could this be used to create a windows usb ? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick#From%20Mac
[17:08] <Mkools> sipior: don't got your last line.
[17:08] <Myrtti> LekeFly: a windows usb? what are you trying to do, do a LiveUSB Windows? or install Windows out of USB?
[17:09] <tp43_> arunbabu, oh, you have to do fdisk /dev/sda or what ever your situation is, mount should tell you.  And then when fdisk is running, type p, and it will print the partition table
[17:09] <LekeFly> Myrtti: to install windows off the usb:)
[17:09] <LekeFly> out :p
[17:09] <sipior> Mkools: some administrators don't like folks running services like dhcp on their network. this is a set of machines in a lab, or something like that?
[17:09] <tp43_> arunbabu, once it prints the one that is formatted ntfs will be your windows partition
[17:10] <Myrtti> LekeFly: the last I checked this was a Ubuntu support channel. I don't know if it's even possible to install Windows off USB, why don't you go and ask ##windows
[17:10]  * l34k HI
[17:10] <Mkools> sipior: Is it necessary to install server edition?
[17:10] <sipior> Mkools: no.
[17:11] <spazic> anyone know how to fix this ruby error??? "/usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom.rb:31:in 'gem_original_require' : no such file to load -- will paginate (MissingSourceFile)"
[17:11] <sipior> spazic: there are other channels, filled with ruby programmers, that could help you better.
[17:11] <tp43_> arunbabu, easier is to go to Admininsitration->Disk Utility, eh
[17:12] <jimcooncat> how do I hook into the shutdown? I want to "killall firefox-bin" when shutting down from gnome.
[17:12] <spazic> but they dont know as much as everyone here. whats the chan? #ruby? they are blah there
[17:12] <sipior> spazic: i don't ask my gardening questions in #ubuntu either, you know?
[17:12] <tp43_> jimcooncat, huh, it doesn't already?  Mine shuts it down
[17:12] <pabelanger> anybody have experience using distcc with Ubuntu?
[17:13] <arunbabu> tp43_: Disk utility is not there !!
[17:13] <30BAAEHGR> hi all
[17:13] <arunbabu> tp43_: i tried fdisk /dev/hda . but the message is Unable to open /dev/hda
[17:13] <tp43_> arunbabu, are you sure
[17:13] <giles> hello, I want to select a grub menu item by index, on a server with a broken graphics screen.
[17:13] <trism> spazic: I'm guessing you don't have the correct will_paginate gem installed
[17:13] <arunbabu> tp43_: yeah.mine is ubuntu 9.04
[17:13] <jimcooncat> tp43_: no, it's hanging if I don't close it first
[17:14] <tp43_> arunbabu, you need to use sudo, but be careful cause you could screw things up, so do 'sudo fdisk /dev/hda'
[17:14] <30BAAEHGR> i'd like to know who is manufacturer of my sd card. how to check it in ubuntu?
[17:14] <tp43_> jimcooncat, wow, I never experienced anything like that on a linux system before
[17:14] <spazic> sipior - but if your gardening question had something to do with a possible ubuntu misconfig then i would understand
[17:14] <giles>  if I just press up several times, the top one is sure to be highlighted.
[17:14] <giles> ?
[17:14] <Mkools> sipior: Is it possible that I can create a DHCP server with only two host, both hosts are directly connected to the Internet?
[17:14] <dabukalam> 30BAAEHGR: sudo apt-get install hardinfo in terminal, then push alt+F2 and type harinfo
[17:14] <dabukalam> 30BAAEHGR: *hardinfo
[17:15] <arunbabu> tp43_: Still it is not working. :( isn't there any easier way??
[17:15] <jimcooncat> tp43_: sarcasm, or you haven't dealt with crappy ajax apps hanging stuff up?
[17:15] <sipior> spazic: fair enough. but you don't really believe that that is the problem.
[17:15] <tp43_> arunbabu, well then do mount first to see what your harddrives are named
[17:15] <arunbabu> tp43_: i think its ok now
[17:16] <tp43_> jimcooncat, no serious, I have never had that happen to me, when I log out, firefox has never hanged, it just shutdown
[17:16] <tp43_> jimcooncat, I am guessing, I never used ajax I guess
[17:16] <sipior> Mkools: what are you trying to do here, exactly? if your two machines are already connected to your campus network, what are you using dhcp for?
[17:17] <jimcooncat> tp43_: lots of websites are using ajax, and it's a killer on these low-memory (256k) systems
[17:17] <socket_77> jimcooncat: have a look at /etc/gdm/PostSession/Default
[17:17] <theadmin> Sorry for a totallly noob question but can i copy a Ubuntu CD i already have? Want to give Ubuntu to a friend and don't wanna download it again
[17:18] <socket_77> jimcooncat: That's a shell script that runs on logout
[17:18] <30BAAEHGR> dabukalam, what's now?
[17:18] <Mkools> sipior: I got two aim: Just to feel confident with networking and want it to run my project.
[17:18] <jimcooncat> socket_77: thanks much!
[17:18] <30BAAEHGR> dabukalam, i have installed it

[17:20] <faizhum> hi
[17:20] <faizhum> I'm new to IRC
[17:20] <faizhum> how do i register this nickname?
[17:20] <k0rupted> anyone know if you need to do anything with Virtualbox to ssh to your guest using NAT? ... (not port forwarding), from the Host --> Guest. I can ssh from Guest --> host but not the other way around
[17:20] <tp43_> arunbabu, yeah, that what you gotta do, but you better find a how to and follow the directions.  Roughly, you have to edit the boot menu file, and add the Windows OS, and then run update grub program.  I don't know the specifics cause I never did it in ages, plus the file names have changed.  But you easily find one, google it
[17:20] <DouglasK> question, I want my ubuntu karmic box to enable LAN at boot (before login).  Any idea where to find info on this?  most of my searches pull up WLAN and network boot stuff.
[17:20] <theadmin> faizhum: Type /msg nickserv help register and read
[17:21] <sine`> guys when i do an ls in a directory there are files and there are 4 different colours. how am i to know the different types of files just by their colour
[17:21] <arunbabu> theadmin: how did you got it ?
[17:21] <tp43_> DouglasK, rclocal maybe?
[17:22] <socket_77> DouglasK: You will want to add your nic config to /etc/network/interfaces
[17:22] <jimcooncat> theadmin, not only is it acceptable to share Ubuntu, it's encouraged!
[17:22] <DouglasK> socket_77, will do.
[17:22] <theadmin> arunbabu: sda = hd(0), then 5 means hd(0,4)
[17:23] <psusi> theadmin: that's for grub1... we're moving to grub2 these days which starts counting at 1
[17:23] <arunbabu> psusi: mine is 9.04 . it's grub one right?
[17:23] <theadmin> jimcooncat: XD I know that, was just wondering whether i can clone the CD
[17:23] <abhi_nav> hellow
[17:23] <theadmin> arunbabu: Yep
[17:23] <arunbabu> theadmin: thanks
[17:24] <psusi> arunbabu: yes... new installs from 9.10 on use grub2
[17:24] <tp43_> theadmin, dude, you can copy a disk in Ubuntu, what kind of question is that
[17:25] <faizhum> how do I start applications/mount filesystems once the network is up
[17:25] <abhi_nav> hi
[17:25] <theadmin> tp43_: Well, system drives are all weird
[17:25] <faizhum> Actually, I want to start my VPN and SSHFS once connected to wireless
[17:25] <tp43_> I remeber there was a program rclocal.rc or somthing like that, that I used to run, and it would let me select with programs run at boot.  Anyone know what it is called now if there is one
[17:25] <tp43_> theadmin, do you have a cd burner?
[17:26] <theadmin> tp43_: Obviously, copying now.
[17:26] <dabukalam> 30BAAEHGR: ALT+F2 and type hardinfo
[17:26] <dabukalam> 30BAAEHGR: then hit enter
[17:26] <theadmin> tp43_: I just was wondering whether there is any.. DRM or something preventing that.
[17:26] <dabukalam> 30BAAEHGR: browse to your SD card
[17:27] <dabukalam> 30BAAEHGR: it will give you all the data you need
[17:27] <tp43_> theadmin, not sure what is DRM, have you heard of gnomebaker?
[17:27] <theadmin> tp43_: Using Brasero to burn
[17:27] <z0man> I had a problem installing ubuntu 9.10 on Vista using Wubi (permission denied).  I researched that somehow I need to place the wubi.exe and iso in a same folder to correct?
[17:27] <theadmin> tp43_: Whatever, it works now.
[17:27] <theadmin> z0man: Yup
[17:27] <faizhum> anyone to help me out?
[17:27] <Gnea> !anyone
[17:28] <arunbabu> i just installed swiftfox in my ubuntu desktop. now when i try to open swiftfox , firefox itself is opening. Is swiftfox like an addon to firefox ?
[17:28] <theadmin> z0man: You need to run wubi.exe as admin, too (right click - Run as Admininstrator)
[17:28] <tp43_> theadmin, is brazero better than gnomebaker?
[17:28] <abhi_nav> arunbabu: no. its separate web broswer
[17:28] <z0man> I done that with the burned Ubuntu CD :/
[17:28] <tp43_> I wished I had some work to do on my laptop
[17:28] <z0man> ok will try with iso image :)
[17:28] <arunbabu> abhi_nav: but swiftfox is not opening. When i try to open it , firefox is coming up :(
[17:29] <Gnea> faizhum: you should be able to plug a script into network manager/wicd to launch after the connection is up/down
[17:29] <theadmin> z0man: If you burned a CD, it will have WUBI ON it
[17:29] <abhi_nav> arunbabu: :(
[17:29] <arunbabu> abhi_nav: any idea ?

[17:29] <abhi_nav> arunbabu: no. but you try their web site, wiki, etc first
[17:29] <arunbabu> cyber-life: yeah
[17:29] <z0man> yes but running wubi.exe as admin from it, came with permission denied.
[17:30] <cyber-life> arunbabu: Great! Me too!
[17:30] <Gnea> well that was... odd.

[17:31] <Roasted> whats a good application to use that'll show all access points (even with the same SSID) with their corresponding signal strength?
[17:31] <Roasted> besides wifi radar
[17:31] <ysis> Hi, I'm running Karmic and want to modify the kernel boot line in grub, but I can't find /boot/grub/menu.lst. Has this changed lately?
[17:31] <faizhum> My apologies
[17:31] <tp43_> faizhum, you just go to the applications buttons and hit the program icon
[17:32] <z0man> Yes.... A bug has been fixed and appdata folder is now hidden for some reason..... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1144599
[17:32] <ysis> Roasted, try wicd
[17:32] <trism> ysis: karmic uses grub2, which uses /boot/grub/grub.cfg instead, there is lots of info on the wiki page
[17:32] <faizhum> i tried networkmanager-vpnc
[17:32] <trism> !grub2 | ysis
[17:32] <faizhum> but it was not auto launching vpn
[17:33] <trism> ysis: for the kernel parameters, you need to edit /etc/default/grub and add or change the value of GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT, and run sudo update-grub;
[17:33] <tp43_> Roasted, iwlist
[17:33] <hal> how can I determine what version a driver module is?  For example, I need to know what version the ath9k driver is
[17:34] <rocket16> arunbabu: Bengali?
[17:34] <Roasted> tp43_, terminal?
[17:34] <tp43_> Roasted, you wanted gui app eh
[17:34] <Roasted> tp43_, just trying to clarify if its terminal or gui
[17:34] <Roasted> tp43_, Id prefer gui but if thats a good solid reliable all Ill use it
[17:34] <tp43_> Roasted, how is wicd?
[17:35] <faizhum> how about using /etc/
[17:35] <tp43_> Roasted, whats wrong with wifi-radar
[17:35] <Roasted> tp43_, its good, but it doesnt allow me to use wired AND wireless connections at the same time, which I like to use, so I tend to use network manager instead. however, network manager is starting to irritate me, because theres an access point above my head yet I have 20% signal
[17:35] <tp43_> faizhum, you are trying to set up a vpn?
[17:35] <faizhum> any comments on adding a script under /etc/network/if-up.d
[17:36] <Roasted> tp43_, wifi radar is very inconsistent with its signal strength it displays. I want to find a reliable app so I can tell exactly where weak spots are with wireless in our schools. wifi radar bounces around a lot. 75%, 0%, 25%, etc. I have a hard time really trusting it.
[17:36] <tp43_> Roasted, what percent do you get from the network over you head with wifi-radar
[17:36] <faizhum> tp43_: I have a vpn already setup...but unfortunately...i have manully connect to VPN after the wireless connection is successful
[17:36] <CarlosWherbet> hi
[17:36] <Roasted> tp43_, 50%
[17:36] <faizhum> and then run sshfs to mount my office unix directory  in my laptop
[17:37] <z0man> thanks for your support theadmin
[17:37] <tp43_> Roasted, that wierd, 20 and 50 %, big difference
[17:37] <faizhum> tp43_:I need some help to set this up automatically
[17:37] <StormTide> anyone setup ubuntu 9.10 on raid10?
[17:38] <faizhum> google search gave a hint about "/etc/network/if-up.d/" directory
[17:38] <tp43_> faizhum, I am not sure. Maybe there is a howto, or someone else knows
[17:38] <Roasted> tp43_, I know. wifi radar bounces a lot, sometimest to 0%, then back up to 50 or 75%. its kind of random.
[17:38] <ysis> trism: Thanks.
[17:38] <faizhum> tp43_:ok...thanks for your kind attempt
[17:39] <faizhum> friends...any suggestions?

[17:43] <grim_repair> hey guys I was having a problem with sharing my usb drive over the lan
[17:43] <grim_repair> is there anybody that could help?
[17:43] <sine`> is mac like linux ? i want to play a pokersoftware and it is only for windows and max
[17:43] <sine`> mac
[17:43] <Myrtti> grim_repair: you need to tell more about your problems before we know if we can help
[17:43] <Mkools> can any one help?
[17:43] <Myrtti> sine`: no, it's not
[17:43] <tp43_> sine`, stay away from gambling
[17:44] <sine`> thanks for the advice tp43_ but i dont gamble
[17:44] <grim_repair> I get the "failed to mount windows share" error. I can share other folders on the local HD.
[17:45] <grim_repair> The drive is working just fine but I cannot access it through the workgroup
[17:45] <tp43_> sine`, they have one program, its called wine, and with that you can run windows programs.  First you install wine, and then you install windows program like this "wine poker-setup.exe", and the you cd ~/.wine/poker/, and then run wine start-poker-program.exe
[17:46] <tp43_> sine`, but, no, the programs ported to mac, won't natively run on Linux
[17:46] <faizhum> quit
[17:46] <grim_repair> I guess I need help in getting more information that could cause the local HD to work but not the portable

[17:56] <schnitzel> what is torrent?
[17:57] <Myrtti> schnitzel: I've not heard of an image that would fit to a floppy. There is mini.iso, but it needs more space than 1.44M.
[17:57] <baegle> schnitzel: http://www.bittorrent.com/
[17:57] <schnitzel> but i can zip it
[17:57] <Kuuro> -.- google it.. You will know.. :P too lazy to explain..

[17:57] <djveer> Hey guys, i'm trying to run a shell script I created based off of ... https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/backup-shellscripts.html   the simple shell script on that page.. didn't change anything other than the backup destination and a few entries to the backup locations. However when I try to run the script with 'sudo bash backup.sh', it gives me ":command not found:" a bunch of times and doesn't seem to run anything.
[17:57] <djveer> what am I missing?
[17:57] <elshaka_> n1b, you could try to disable wireless right clicking the network manager applet :D
[17:58] <vak> how to disable all netwoking from command line?
[17:58] <schnitzel> rm -rf /
[17:58] <schnitzel> no jk lol
[17:58] <schnitzel> dont do that :p
[17:58] <n1b> elshaka_: yeh i wanna use a script really
[17:58] <Myrtti> schnitzel: please don't give bad advice, it makes bunnies cry
[17:59] <schnitzel> sorry :p
[17:59] <eremite> Do NOT give commands like that in here
[17:59] <eremite> -_-
[17:59] <elshaka_> vak, sudo service networking stop
[17:59] <rameshwor> vak: : maybe /etc/init.d/networking stop
[18:00] <schnitzel> ok im just kidding :p
[18:00] <vak> sudo service networking stop ==> stop: Unknown instance:
[18:00] <schnitzel> ive been trolling a bit :D
[18:00] <n1b> i think me and vak want the same thing almost!
[18:00] <mickster04> vak: did u use tab to autocomplete the "networking"
[18:00] <vak> rameshwor: "/etc/init.d/networking stop" is what I tried before coming in chat -- and surprisingly it didn't work. So, I am here :)
[18:01] <eremite> schnitzel: please go to #ubuntu-offtopic if you dont have a support question or are not helping people.  Do not troll this channel, you will not survive long in here if you do.
[18:01] <rameshwor> vak: : did u do sudo ..??
[18:01] <Kuuro> Yes he did..
[18:01] <sipior> eremite: enough, already.
[18:01] <rameshwor> vak: : sudo /etc/init.d/networking stop
[18:01] <schnitzel> ok, ill help out :)
[18:01]  * vak claims he ain't a clone of n1b! :)
[18:01] <vak> rameshwor: sure!
[18:02] <mickster04> vak: if you do sudo service net{tab} it will either fill it out for you or tell u options that ae available
[18:02] <Kuuro> Try sudo /etc/init.d/networking stop
[18:02] <schnitzel> tho have to press tab twice
[18:02] <schnitzel> for all the options
[18:02] <mickster04> well yeah but meh
[18:02] <schnitzel> service network stop ?
[18:02] <mickster04> im sure he would have done that anyway
[18:02] <schnitzel> that worked for me
[18:02] <rameshwor> vak: : sorry..  then.. maybe others will help
[18:02] <DarsVaeda> hi i want to install 10.04 but i can not change a partition cause the cd is on the same mount-point, how can i change that?
[18:03] <mickster04> well the tab will autocomplete to the right thing or tell him whats available to stop
[18:03] <vak> mickster04: two options ==> networking and network-manager
[18:03] <histo> DarsVaeda: what do you mean the cd is on the ame mount-point?
[18:03] <mickster04> vak: and networking doesnt stop owt?
[18:03] <DarsVaeda> thats what the installation tells me
[18:03] <rameshwor> i've got a source code of a program. how do i install the program for me only.. i mean for a single user. ??
[18:03] <Kuuro> This is complicated @.@
[18:03] <histo> DarsVaeda: ahh you may want to ask in #ubuntu+1 for lucid help
[18:03] <mickster04> rameshwor: compile it in your home directory?
[18:04] <rameshwor> i know how to install.  but how do i install so that only i can run it ?
[18:04] <DarsVaeda> ahh okay thanks
[18:04] <vak> mickster04: no, it doesn't. Moreover, i see the "stop: Unknown instance: " message
[18:04] <mickster04> i dunno what that means...
[18:04] <histo> rameshwor: you'd have to install it in your /home and change the permisisons
[18:04] <rameshwor> mickster04: :  doing ./configure , make , make install in the home directory..??
[18:04] <mickster04> vak: are you sure it isnt already stopped
[18:04] <sipior> rameshwor: ensure that the binary is owned by you, and only has the user execute bit set.
[18:05] <DarkStar1> a quick samba question. Is it possible for me to log into a share with the same user from different machines?? or is it just one login per user?
[18:05] <vak> mickster04: sure, I am remotely testing this ;)
[18:05] <mickster04> folder then you can run it from there, it means others cant access it?rameshwor: no idea, but i would have thought so, cos it makes it in the h
[18:05] <histo> rameshwor: thats the easier way is to intsall it and just chmod the binary
[18:05] <vak> mickster04: and my remote session is as alive as me
[18:05] <theadmin> I can't seem to clone my Ubuntu cd :/
[18:05] <histo> rameshwor: so that only your user has access.
[18:05] <mickster04> vak: have you tried stopping it, loggin out and tryint log back in? mayb it wont stop till you disconnect?
[18:06] <rameshwor> sipior: didn't understand..
[18:06] <mickster04> theadmin: ? what do u mean clone?
[18:06] <pepee> hi
[18:06] <mickster04> hi
[18:06] <abhi_nav> yah thats what I am going to ask what do you mean clone, theadmin?
[18:06] <histo> rameshwor: what is the program?
[18:06] <DarkStar1> anyone?
[18:06] <vak> mickster04: hm... do you believe in this? OK anyway I do it ;)
[18:06] <theadmin> abhi_nav: It means... generate an image of the existing CD (this step is going fine) and record it
[18:06] <mickster04> DarkStar1: try it?
[18:06] <pepee> /usr/include/bits/local_lim.h:39:26: error: linux/limits.h: No such file or directory ← while compiling

[18:07] <abhi_nav> theadmin: but now you are saying that going fine
[18:07] <DarkStar1> mickster04:  I already have.... I don't know whether it's winxp being a bitch or whether it's that
[18:07] <histo> rameshwor: well I think nmap can only be used by admins but this link will explain http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=491111

[18:08] <vak> Gurus! How to disable networking from command line?
[18:08] <mickster04> DarkStar1: no idea:/ not tried it myself:/
[18:08] <n1b> hey sudo service network-manager stop worked a treat thankyou !!
[18:08] <lind_> vak sudo /etc/init.d/networking stop
[18:08] <abhi_nav> theadmin: then its not ubuntu cd problem. its cd  burner sw or hw problem?
[18:08] <iustinian> or the medium maybe
[18:08] <mickster04> n1b: that would stop the network manager, but i dunno what that does to connections:D but if thats solved it for you...:D
[18:09] <vak> lind_: I did it
[18:09] <mickster04> vak: have you tried doing that?
[18:09] <rameshwor> histo: :yeah.. but the program doesn't matter. and i want to learn how to install program for a single user..     and where are the binaries kept ?  /bin  ?
[18:09] <theadmin> abhi_nav: I can burn the newly downloaded ISO just fine, so wtf?
[18:09] <mickster04> theadmin: well just reburn the iso?
[18:09] <sipior> vak: does "ifdown -a" work for you?
[18:10] <abhi_nav> !details | theadmin
[18:10] <lind_> vak, what is the command line output?
[18:10] <theadmin> abhi_nav: Okay, so. I downloaded the ISO and it burns. If i try to create an ISO of an EXISTING cd and burn that, it does NOT burn.
[18:10] <mickster04> theadmin: why do u need to do that when u have the iso?
[18:10] <n1b> yehh just stoped it then restarted it and xchat started rolling again too but im using a laptop ! if that makes a difference..
[18:10] <vak> lind_:mickster04: after "sudo /etc/init.d/networking stop" there comes message "* Deconfiguring network interfaces..." and networking stays alive
[18:11] <theadmin> mickster04: I'm just trying to figure out what the heck is going on there
[18:11] <iustinian> theadmin: could e a case of secure copy and other antipiracy implements
[18:11] <mickster04> vak: have you also stopped network-manager?
[18:11] <iustinian> vak ip link set eth0 down
[18:11] <djveer> Nobody has any idea for my scripting issue I mentioned earlier?
[18:11] <vak> mickster04: oh... right shot, dude, right shot! :)

[18:12] <LoganPhyve> anyone have any idea how to force ubuntu server to use an external DNS for resolving a domain name?
[18:13] <iustinian> mickster04: i bet he will time out in 254 seconds
[18:13] <theadmin> abhi_nav: Brasero is what i used to clone, but original CD was created with Astroburn
[18:13] <vak> guys, many thanks to all
[18:13] <djveer> LoganPhyve: It doesn't just try the first server specified in /etc/resolv.conf ?
[18:13] <vak> Now my kids could do some homework
[18:13] <mickster04> vak: ha ha a ha
[18:14] <iustinian> vak lolz
[18:14] <vak> Networkin == no homework
[18:14] <abhi_nav> theadmin: dont use Brasero
[18:14] <LoganPhyve> well my in house DNS has an issue resolving this address interally, djveer , i want to point it to an external
[18:14] <lind_> djveer, try sudo sh backup.sh
[18:14] <vak> you couldn't believe!
[18:14] <theadmin> abhi_nav: ...What to use? Any CLI method?
[18:14] <mickster04> bbl
[18:14] <iustinian> LoganPhyve: u should do that in router configuration
[18:14] <abhi_nav> theadmin: gnomebaker
[18:14] <LoganPhyve> this is for a corporate windows enterprise network
[18:14] <djveer> LoganPhyve: your SOHO router i'm assuming? Just point it to an external DNS server in /etc/resolv.conf .. it sholud work
[18:14] <vak> I gotta schedule "shutdown -h" too !!!
[18:14] <thiago_> join
[18:15] <djveer> lind_: i'll try it.. one sec
[18:15] <lind_> djveer, or give 'x' to it by chmod +x backup.sh and use it with ./backup.sh when you are in that directory
[18:15] <theadmin> abhi_nav: What about the second question? :D I just like CLI better.
[18:15] <iustinian> LoganPhyve: do you have access to externl DNS queries ?
[18:15] <BinariDragon> anyone hear from ny
[18:15] <BinariDragon> New york
[18:15] <Keba1> how many bug jams have been done (including the one starting tomorrow?)
[18:15] <jmcantrell> is there a way to have a user space hosts file?
[18:15] <abhi_nav> theadmin: I dont know abou it :)
[18:15] <LoganPhyve> i'm not sure iustinian
[18:16] <vak> tbh, I was quite surprized that ifdown and sudo /etc/init.d/networking didn't do the job...
[18:16] <LoganPhyve> i have access to my company dns and the dyndns admin page
[18:16] <iustinian> LoganPhyve: try to query with dig

[18:16] <djveer> lind_: now I get " : not found: instead of command not found
[18:16] <vak> Perhaps, I had networking in the time when I have had to do my homework about "netwoking-manager"
[18:17] <iustinian> LoganPhyve: dig @remote name
[18:17] <vak> so, the homework has not been done
[18:17] <LoganPhyve> dig does not work for the domain i want to resolve but it does work for ns1.dyndns.org iustinian
[18:17] <iustinian> vak: u could put some parental control on the router
[18:18] <lind_> djveer, it seems you are in wrong directory
[18:18] <vak> iustinian: maybe. Then they will watch port at friend's home
[18:18] <iustinian> try to query ns1.dyndns.... for the name u want
[18:18] <LoganPhyve> can you help me with the syntax for shell?
[18:19] <rameshwor> how do i auto start a program   when someone logs in ?
[18:19] <iustinian> dig @n1.dyndns.org yourdomain
[18:19] <LoganPhyve> ty
[18:19] <iustinian> ns1 sorry typo
[18:19] <Keba1> rameshwor: system -> settings -> start programs (or sth like that, i do not have an english ubuntu here)
[18:20] <LoganPhyve> iustinian: shows as Internet A record on dyndys
[18:20] <frxstrem> so, I have just installed Ubuntu 10.04 Beta, and I just wondered if it is possible to synchronize my iPod touch (3G) with it, either through iTunes running in Wine, or in another way that would allow me to synchronize both music and podcasts and stuff...do anyone know if this is possible?
[18:20] <rameshwor> Keba1: : ok. i'll check
[18:20] <iustinian> LoganPhyve: do you see an aswer section there and an IP ?
[18:20] <Myrtti> !lucid | frxstrem
[18:20] <frxstrem> well, I was really talking about Ubuntu in general
[18:21] <frxstrem> not specific to Ubuntu 10.04
[18:21] <iustinian> frxstrem: OT but from what i heard you dont need wine anymore
[18:21] <iustinian> u can doi it nativelly
[18:21] <Myrtti> frxstrem: I've heard rumours it might work *specifically* in Lucid.
[18:21] <frxstrem> well, I've heard those too
[18:21] <LoganPhyve> iustinian: i show quesiton section authority section, says got ansswer, no error, recursion requested but not avail
[18:21] <frxstrem> but my concern is the podcasts, will they synch too?
[18:21] <Myrtti> frxstrem: so in that sense asking in the Lucid channel might be valid
[18:22] <frxstrem> okay
[18:22] <rameshwor> Keba1: : yes ther's startup applications..    but can i do from COMMAND  is there any script or file executed during start  ??
[18:22] <lind_> do you have any good solution for shutting down the computer when last user logs of? I have it in crontab right now but I would like it to happen immediately?
[18:22] <LoganPhyve> all the machines inside the network use our house dns and for whatever reason the house cannot resolve this domain without the www. in front of it
[18:22] <iustinian> LoganPhyve: try to query another server something form opendns eg
[18:22] <LoganPhyve> sure, let me try
[18:23] <urupica> i want to copy a directory recursively from one domain to another on the same server. no ssh access. any ftp or php solution?
[18:23] <urupica> php copy("/var/www/domain1/dir/file","/var/www/comain2/dir/file") function doesnt work due to restrictions.
[18:23] <urupica> downloading locally and uploading again is no solution due to the size (>1G). any idea anyone?
[18:23] <Uboss> Problem detected on Ubuntu 9.10
[18:23] <iustinian> recursive ftp ?
[18:24] <djveer> lind_: Could you be more specific when you say that i'm in the wrong directory to run that?
[18:24] <nibbler_> urupica: use php to tar it, and wget it with another php?
[18:24] <Keba1> rameshwor: init.d and rcS.d ?
[18:24] <Uboss> I turned on my pc, I chose to join Ubuntu and not Windows and after Ubuntu's logo many colors mixed up on my screen was shown. What can I do with that?
[18:24] <mattd123> lind_, ~/.bash_logout if called when a user logs out. You could maybe move your crontab script into that script.
[18:24] <LoganPhyve> iustinian: yes, i get positive results from another name server as well
[18:25] <Keba1> but hat might be to complicated
[18:25] <djveer> lind_: It's weird.. even when I just do a "sudo ./backup.sh" it gives me "No such file or directory."
[18:25] <iustinian> LoganPhyve: it is possible in some server configs not to have a name.com answer but only www.name.com
[18:25] <dabukalam> I'm getting an error while trying to install mysql-server-5.0: http://paste.ubuntu.com/401178/
[18:25] <urupica> nibbler_ : good idea. will try. thx.
[18:26] <lind_> djveer, you are not in the same directory where that backup.sh is. try 'ls backup.sh'
[18:26] <zeko> hi! is there a way i could change the name of my hard disk drive label .
[18:26] <iustinian> dabukalam: it is already installed
[18:26] <djveer> lind_: that's the weird thing.. the file IS in the directory i'm sitting in. It's my home dir
[18:26] <mattd123> djveer, Is your #! line correct? I've seen it give that error when the interpreter what invalid. Or when line break where \r\n and not just \n
[18:26] <dabukalam> iustinian: 5.1 is, 5.0 isn't
[18:26] <djveer> mattd123: what should it be?
[18:26] <dabukalam> iustinian: and even if i remove 5.1 it won't work
[18:26] <ZykoticK9> dabukalam, are you using Lucid?
[18:26] <LoganPhyve> iustinian: my house dns is windows serv 2k3, i believe. i show an A record but it only points to my 2 in house dns' for that domain without the www. sub in front. do you know if it's possible to add a third extrenal name server to that without messing up the house dns records?\
[18:27] <djveer> mattd123: it doesn't seem like it is interpreting the commands, so that makes sense
[18:27] <LoganPhyve> it seems to be but i don't want to break it
[18:27] <mattd123> usually #!/bin/sh
[18:27] <dabukalam> ZykoticK9: no, it's a jaunty server
[18:27] <ZykoticK9> dabukalam, ok just checking (mysql is broken on AMD64 right now on lucid)
[18:27] <djveer> mattd123: yeah, it's " #!/bin/sh "
[18:28] <iustinian> LoganPhyve: if you are getting a negative response u have nothing to do, if the server times out it will hit your 32rd and 3rd line in toyr resolv.conf
[18:28] <dabukalam> ZykoticK9: sure ;)
[18:28] <djveer> mattd123: weird, I just ran testscript.sh that all it has in it is "date" and that works fine
[18:28] <iustinian> 2nd and 3rd lines sorry
[18:28] <iustinian> typonese day
[18:28] <luist> can i download color themes for kate?
[18:29] <LoganPhyve> iustinian: can i add the external nameserver to either resolv.conf or my in house windows dns?
[18:29] <lind_> djveer, maybe that commandline ouput comes from script. do you have '/var/spool/mail' directory?
[18:29] <LoganPhyve> iustinian: when i added the nameserver to my resolv.conf file, it does not stay put, it reverts after reboot
[18:29] <dabukalam> iustinian: basically, I think that error is causing drupal to give me "Failed to connect to your MySQL database server. MySQL reports the following message: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)."
[18:29] <iustinian> LoganPhyve: you can add it in both locations if you want but better add it to your resolv.conf
[18:30] <lind_> and /mnt/backup directory
[18:30] <iustinian> dabukalam: i think it is related to mysql config
[18:30] <djveer> lind_: both /var/spool/mail and /mnt/backup exist
[18:31] <LoganPhyve> iustinian: i've added to resolv.conf but it does not save changes after reboot
[18:31] <iustinian> dabukalam: try to configure it to go through an ip address not a socket
[18:31] <loesje> I would be terribly happy, if someone could help me tell Ubuntu that I want to have a resolution of 1440x900@75, because that is the native resolution on the flat monitor I am using.
[18:31] <mattd123> djveer, I bet it's line breaks. Do you know how to use vim?
[18:31] <iustinian> LoganPhyve: can u add it to naetwork manager configuration ?
[18:31] <djveer> mattd123: yes, I do
[18:31] <lind_> djveer, then you should try do you have command 'sh' with 'which sh'
[18:31] <LoganPhyve> iustinian: not sure, running in CLI mode only for server
[18:32] <Ichat> hi -  can someone plz help me to figure this one out:  i installed package  transmission-daemon    - the problem seems that   it doesn't read  from  /etc/transmission-daemon/settings.json   but rather from a file somewhere in  <my?    >    home folder    however it want it to act the same  regardless of whom-ever is logged in ...
[18:32] <ziggles> If i have: checkIfNull(myGetter()); is there a way i can pass the name of "myGetter" to checkIfNull?  (i would like to log it's name)
[18:32] <mattd123> djveer, try, `:set ff=unix' then save it and run.
[18:32] <LoganPhyve> iustinian: i have been putting in on the 5th or 6th line down. does it ned to be on the third?
[18:32] <user___> hello, my ubunut karmic computer wnot boot with the error "could not access PID file for nmbd", not much on google, help much appreciated
[18:32] <ziggles> jesus... wrong channel. sorry everyone.
[18:32] <djveer> mattd123: okay will try that
[18:32] <djveer> lind_: yes, I have sh ... /bin/sh
[18:32] <Ichat> so i want it to read the 'orriginal file from /etc/tr....-daemon/   rahter than from  /home/user/.config/
[18:33] <dabukalam> iustinian: i have no idea what a socket is
[18:33] <dabukalam> !socket
[18:33] <iustinian> dabukalam: a share memory conection method
[18:34] <djveer> mattd123: That did it, thanks man :)
[18:34] <lind_> Ichat, try to start it with option '--config-dir directory'
[18:34] <djveer> lind_: Thanks for your help
[18:34] <Guest82464> Hi! How do i get so that i can acces like the file-browser and some programs by right-clicking the desktop?
[18:35] <mattd123> djveer, sweet!
[18:35] <lind_> mattd123 great solution :)
[18:35] <djveer> mattd123, lind_: I guess just the file format was incorrect
[18:36] <Ichat> lind_  its a server install,   and i think i know enought about linux to 'figure' that there probably is a config file  that  starts the daemon  at boot ... the problem for me is . i have NO idea where to find it and how to change it

[18:38] <Neon0Blue> I backed up my hdd cause I want to change it from ext3. But how do I redo my /dev folder?
[18:38] <Neon0Blue> Because it wont copy the "Special files" in it.
[18:38] <lind_> Spanglish_7776, I would like to shutdown computer when last user logs out
[18:38] <Myrtti> Neon0Blue: /dev is a special part of the filestructure tree that represents the actual devices in your system
[18:38] <Gadu> Neon0Blue: while in a livecd make an archive of your dev folder and extract it to the new location
[18:39] <Neon0Blue> How to I remount it then.
[18:39] <KeithChester> ii am trying to make it so that when i type www.something.com itll point towards 127.0.0.1:8080/somedirectory. editing the /etc/hosts apparently wont do this - what should i be looking into/
[18:39] <howlmowly> Hi people... short question. I just upgaded from 9.10 to10.04 android After Erstattung i am sitting in Front offen a Blacklist Screenshot now... strg-alt-f* does not work ... ans ideas?

[18:39] <Spanglish_7776> gotcha.
[18:39] <Neon0Blue> Isn't there a way for my to just "Remake" the /dev folder?
[18:39] <Neon0Blue> And remount all the devices in it?
[18:39] <KeithChester> ii am trying to make it so that when i type www.something.com itll point towards 127.0.0.1:8080/somedirectory. editing the /etc/hosts apparently wont do this - what should i be looking into?

[18:41] <Gadu> already installed purvesh. or do you need a viewer?
[18:41] <knapsack> What's a good option for chroot'ing an SSH user on Hardy (8.04)? That release only has OpenSSH 4.7, which doesn't allow for easy chroot'ing.
[18:42] <purvesh> Gadu, hi thanx for reply ... Viewer for what ?
[18:42] <Gadu> purvesh: to view another computer remotely
[18:43] <purvesh> Gadu, yup .... how to .. do that

But now we want a karmic-foo which points to the newest version. Is their a good way of doing this member:without completely ripping everything out and starting from scratch.
[18:44] <Sioux-33> hi after kernel update to 2.6.31.21 in ubuntu 9.10 mousse cursor disappear does anyone know why?

[18:46] <Ichat> can anyone tell me where to look for a startup script of some kind for transmission-daemon

[18:46] <Spanglish_7776> lind_: did you try putting the script in this file? $HOME/.bash_logout
[18:46] <Spanglish_7776> lind_ I'm assuming you have to put it for each user
[18:46] <gaffo_home> how do I list my unconfigured network adapters ? I added some new ones to a VM and they're not showing up in ifconfig
[18:47] <phox_> Hi! Right now transmission autostarts at boot, but at fullscren, thus windowing my htpc-program. How can i make transmission start in windowed mode so xbmc doesnt tab out? :)
[18:47] <jmcantrell> how can i purge packages that have already been removed?
[18:47] <lind_> Spanglish_7776, yes, it works. Great. I put it also to default file for new users. thanks

[18:52] <Sioux-33> hi after kernel update to 2.6.31.21 in ubuntu 9.10 mousse cursor disappear does anyone know why?
[18:53] <Gadu> purvesh: the SERVER is already installed, which allows others to viewer or control your desktop if you allow them. the CLIENT or VIEWER is what allows you to view or control others if they allow you
[18:53] <purvesh> Gadu, ya i had installed that xvnc4viwer but my friend is on windows OS so he said sudo apt-get install vncserver
[18:53] <lind_> Sioux-33, do you have usb-mouse and does any other usb-device work?
[18:53] <Gadu> definitely not
[18:53] <coz_> Sioux-33,  not sure  but open a terminal   sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[18:53] <coz_> Sioux-33,  see if that corrects anything
[18:53] <Gadu> purvesh: what he needs, is to install vnc
[18:53] <abhi_nav> purvesh: #ubuntu-in for indian peolpe to promote linux
[18:53] <Gadu> purvesh: realvnc
[18:53] <grim_repair> hello again

[18:57] <Spanglish_7776> grim_repair:automatically or if you  manually mounted it
[18:57] <Neon0Blue> lol
[18:57] <goddard> I want to be able to use the headset but not have to manually set my sound options to use the headset.  I was hoping that I could make some kind of script that would allow it "when on" to switch sound devices and when off to switch back...but I dont know where to start
[18:57] <Fuzion24> Someone helped me last night at about 7, but then I had a power outage... they dumped some code to paste bin....

[18:58] <Spanglish_7776> grim_repair: give me a few minutes, I have shared a USB drive with Samba before without issues.
[18:58] <Fuzion24> cant remember who it was, but here is my problem:  I was playing around with grub... changing the background and such and somehow managed to break the splash screen so ubuntu (9.10) will not boot now

[19:08] <nosse1> !es
[19:08] <gaffo_home> erUSUL, yes
[19:09] <erUSUL> gaffo_home: what type of adapters are they real hardware emulation or some sort of virtual device ?
[19:09] <hal> how can I determine what version a driver module is?  For example, I need to know what version the ath9k driver is
[19:09] <Fuzion24> lsmod?
[19:09] <_dreamy> i cant find an equalizer on synaptics
[19:09] <gaffo_home> erUSUL, they're both virtual
[19:09] <gaffo_home> erUSUL, one is nat on the real adapter, one is host-only virtual network with the host since nat can't talk to the internet and the host.
[19:10] <StuM> Would someone be able to tell me how I find the address for my router? (i.e. http://192.168... etc)

 did u try fsck?
[19:11] <hal> Fuzion24: that's the first thing I tried, but unfortunately lsmod does not return the driver version number
[19:11] <gaffo_home> erUSUL, I'll have to type it
[19:11] <theadmin> Guest72493: /etc/X11?

[19:12] <Guest72493> theadmin, it's not there and I must to add RadeonAccel in that config so I will not have any problems with window corruption as I had.
[19:12] <stercor> Thanks!  I'm so _there_.
[19:12] <Fuzion24> hal try /sbin/modinfo and then pmvers
[19:13] <abhi_nav> why ubottu is not there is #ubuntu-in? why ubot3? I love ubottu
[19:13] <gaffo_home> erUSUL, ral?
[19:13] <theadmin> Guest72493: Ubuntu does not use it, but if you add stuff there, it will use that
[19:13] <LjL> abhi_nav: ubottu has much load already. if you miss anything in ubot3, you can ask about it in #ubuntu-bots
[19:13] <erUSUL> gaffo_home: real* you mentioned one of them was real emulated hardware. ...
[19:13] <Guest72493> theadmin, how can I enable xorg.conf ?
[19:13] <abhi_nav> LjL ok sure thankyou
[19:13] <theadmin> Guest72493: create it and put stuff there

[19:14] <erUSUL> gaffo_home: so probably driver is this /lib/modules/2.6.31-20-generic/kernel/drivers/net/pcnet32.ko
[19:14] <erUSUL> gaffo_home: do « sudo modprobe pcnet32 »
[19:15] <gaffo_home> erUSUL, nothing came back
[19:15] <Fuzion24> Sioux-33, no go on the fsck
[19:15] <erUSUL> gaffo_home: that's normal. « dmesg | tail »
[19:15] <Fuzion24> I was playing around with grub... changing the background and such and somehow managed to break the splash screen so ubuntu (9.10) will not boot now. usplash: no usable theme ... screen init failed I am using grub 1.97 and I have the live cd... how can i fix this?
[19:16] <hal> Fuzion24: I can't find pmvers in the repo.  Do you know where I can get it?
[19:16] <Fuzion24> naw, I just googled your problem and those were the first two sugestions i found.
[19:16] <goddard> I want to be able to use the headset but not have to manually set my sound options to use the headset.  I was hoping that I could make some kind of script that would allow it "when on" to switch sound devices and when off to switch back...but I dont know where to start
[19:17] <Fuzion24> hal, try modinfo
[19:17] <gaffo_home> erUSUL, what am I looking for? I've got some dhcp lines, a lockdv1 RPC failed and some NFS failures (which I expect since the mount can't happen without network)
[19:17] <stercor> Hmmm...I'm trying to change the login name on the login screen.  I was advised System->Preferences->About Me.  But I find no "Real Name" there.  I've looked into all the tabs and ... nothing.
[19:17] <hal> Fuzion24: ok, thakn you - gotta go out.  Will look at it later.  Cheers for your help
[19:18] <mi6ail1234> ok,how to download Ubuntu x86-64...when i enter on web page and then on download...it's starts to download version i386?

[19:18] <Guest72493> Anyone knows?!?!
[19:18] <erUSUL> gaffo_home: well maybe nothing is printed there... see if "ifconfig -a" output changed
[19:18] <gaffo_home> it did
[19:18] <gaffo_home> they're there now
[19:19] <gaffo_home> erUSUL, what caused them to show up? the modprobe?
[19:19] <dassouki> JAVA_HOME why is it not getting set automatically and why is it not accepting my /etc/profile setting :(
[19:19] <gaffo_home> or was it cause I was only doing ifconfig and not -a
[19:19] <ZykoticK9> Guest72493, http://sites.google.com/site/alucidfs/how-i-do/create-an-xorg-conf-file
[19:20] <erUSUL> gaffo_home: we loaded the driver for them so they show up. ideally the module would load autmatically but it is not doing so.
[19:20] <gaffo_home> erUSUL, it should from now on tho, right?
[19:20] <erUSUL> gaffo_home: just do this. « echo "pcnet32" | sudo tee -a /etc/modules  »

[19:24] <lind_> Brazucka, http://aiptektablet.sourceforge.net/index.html
[19:24] <erUSUL> gaffo_home: yes; some drivers would print something there when loaded. seems like pcnet32 is not one of those

[19:42] <Gnea> AngelHavok: did you check to see if there's anything blocking the laser on the bottom?
[19:42] <AngelHavok> It does it on the wireless and a wired mouse
[19:42] <Gnea> AngelHavok: with just X or with gpm too?
[19:42] <toxic> AngelHavok, you can even try pressing the "connect" or "reset" button on mouse and/or reciever
[19:42] <Drone4four> rjent, see here: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=ODA5Mg
[19:42] <p1und3r> llutz: sweet thanks is $1 kinda like an argument in a command? so if i wanted the second value delimited by a space i could use $2?
[19:42] <AngelHavok> yeah, both are clear. It's even done it a couple times when I have both neither hooked up
[19:42] <rjent> Drone4four, humble appreciation. May I assume if works with latest Ubuntu it will aslo work with latest Debian?
[19:42] <llutz> p1und3r: man awk
[19:42] <llutz> p1und3r: yes
[19:42] <p1und3r> llutz: thanks :D

[19:45] <jimcooncat> blakkheim: I looked around, and didn't find many complaints about that device
[19:45] <rjent> Drone4four, is there a particular version of the iPod Touch that is better than another?
[19:45] <Losha> underdev: you have 3 options: upgrade emacs22, force install emacs-w3m and hope that it works, or look on the web for a version known to work with emacs22 and install it by hand. Or switch to vi :-)

[19:47] <Myrtti> rjent: Nokia Maemo Devices
[19:47] <rjent> Myrtti, ok I will look at that device.
[19:47] <Drone4four> many other cell phones like Nokia have Linux based cellphones
[19:48] <Drone4four> Google's Android cell phone is based on Linux
[19:48] <Myrtti> rjent: N800 and N810 are closer to ipodtouch, N900 is the iphone equivalent
[19:48] <Myrtti> rjent: n800 and n810 are quite old though in comparison to N900
[19:49] <rjent> Myrtti, are they still selling the n800 and n810?
[19:49] <Myrtti> rjent: not as new
[19:49] <GUcko> guys how can I change the password for the power user?
[19:49] <Myrtti> GUcko: you don't
[19:49] <GUcko> O_O
[19:49] <Myrtti> GUcko: change your own
[19:49] <nosse1> Are there any ubuntu seeds between ubuntu-minimal and ubuntu-desktop. I need a more complete system, yet without the desktop
[19:49] <GUcko> Myrtti: how to do that?
[19:50] <rjent> Myrtti, so is the iPodTouch the device to look at for a data and student based learning device?
[19:50] <Myrtti> GUcko: there is no set password for the root, root account isn't used. First user gets sudo permissions which allows running applications as root
[19:50] <Losha> nosse1: if you can tell us what functionality you need, we may be able to name some packages for you to install...
[19:50] <vick1188> hey guys need to know about that is samsung corby is having linux kernal or not
[19:50] <ChogyDan> nosse1: why can't you do the minimal, and then just install what you need?
[19:50] <Myrtti> GUcko: several ways, either user management (System - admin - users and groups) or by commandline (passwd)
[19:50] <GUcko> Myrtti: I want to change the password of sudo! So how to do that?
[19:51] <GUcko> Myrtti: I tried them all, none changed the password!
[19:51] <guntbert> GUcko: that is your own password
[19:51] <vick1188> coz...it's ginving me the 3 workspace
[19:51] <vick1188> like the concept of linux
[19:51] <Myrtti> rjent: depends on what you are planning to teach/learn.
[19:51] <GUcko> Myrtti: they gave me that the process was successful but it doesn't work after that!!
[19:51] <user___> does anyone have experience with telinit?
[19:51] <rabbitnightmare> I swear Ubuntu is retarded
[19:52] <meganiko> vick1188: Samsung Corby is proprietary OS.
[19:52] <user___> i changed telinit to 3, and now my system wont boot. is this likely related?
[19:52] <rjent> Myrtti, well one a general learning device for every student in a class something like http://www.linuxfordevices.com/c/a/News/Freescale-smartbook-tablet-design/
[19:52] <Myrtti> GUcko: you're not telling me anything that would help me to help you. What did you do, what happened then?
[19:52] <rabbitnightmare> I cannot get it to recognize this hdd properly can someone please help
[19:52] <Myrtti> rjent: then why don't you get that freescale one?
[19:53] <rabbitnightmare> I have a pata hdd that was in a system with a pata to sata connecter on raid, I put it in another system on a pata port and it still recognizes it as raid whAT DO i DO?
[19:53] <GUcko> Myrtti: System>Admins>Users and Groups>unlock>My username>Properties>Change password
[19:53] <rabbitnightmare> xp installs properly on it as a pata but I dont want XP
[19:53] <rjent> Myrtti, I just want to get all my info and this is a good chanel with good knowledge base.  I am not sure if they are out yet. I will have to look.
[19:53] <GUcko> Myrtti: that what I did...it says it was successful, but when I try it to open Synatpic with the new password, it says it's wrong@
[19:53] <Losha> rabbitnightmare: sorry to hear you're still struggling with this. Wish I had an answer for you...
[19:53] <GUcko> !
[19:54] <rabbitnightmare> Losha I even switched it to another computer
[19:54] <nosse1> ChongyDan: I'm already on minimal. I'm running Ub. Lucid on an ARM target and I'm having problems with sshd. According to syslog, things like locale seems to be missing/misconfigured. So perhaps a more complete set of packages would be resolving it.
[19:54] <Myrtti> GUcko: have you had the permission to run synaptic before?
[19:54] <nosse1> However it can be both Lucid and the target that wrong. In all case I cannot ssh into the machine, nor ssh to localhost
[19:55] <GUcko> Myrtti: do you mean cached password?
[19:55] <Myrtti> GUcko: no, I mean are you the first user of that machine and have you been able to run applications that require the usage of sudo before
[19:55] <Icehawk> I've got a wireless router that I reconfigured a while ago, and changed the port that the web interface listens on. Now I can't remember it, and need to access it. Directly connected, is there any way of scanning to see which port the router is listening on?
[19:55] <Myrtti> GUcko: are there other users to that machine that have had accounts on it before you
[19:56] <nosse1> Ivehawk: So you are logged into the router? You have a console?
[19:56] <llutz> Icehawk: nmap router.ip.add.ress
[19:56] <GUcko> Myrtti: yeah sure! I'm travelling and I want to give the desktop to my sister, but the current password is for my email as well ;)
[19:56] <GUcko> Myrtti: no only me
[19:57] <Myrtti> GUcko: have you tried logging out and back in yet? what you could try as well is to try to change your password on the commandline with passwd
[19:57] <[[thufir]]> Is this partition table sensible?  xp is installed, and I want to not muck that up, but want dual boot.  So, I manually partitioned as follows:  https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B5hKxkS1VyAxMmU5YzlmOTEtYTEzMC00MzdjLTk0MWYtOWU4MzVhNGM5MmE3&hl=en
[19:57] <Icehawk> Llutz: Thanks
[19:58] <ChogyDan> [[thufir]]: why is windows at the end?
[19:59] <Kito> hello
[19:59] <ChogyDan> [[thufir]]: is the current state that you have a single partition?  all windows?
[19:59] <natrixnatrix89> if HD quality video playback and playback of videos on youtube is laggish. Does it mean I have to buy a better video card, or it could be something else too. my ram - 1gb and cpu 1ghz
[19:59] <meganiko> Can anyone help me install Rhythmbox plugins?
[19:59] <[[thufir]]> current state is that fedora 5 is there, as is xp.  I want to replace fedora 5 with ubuntu.
[20:00] <Guest37907> hello, I seemed to have removed my volume control applet from the notification area and can't get it back
[20:00] <DarkStar1> user___: sigh
[20:00] <[[thufir]]> ChogyDan: not sure why windows is at end, I can go back a step.  However, I think that's how it's arranged so far.
[20:00] <ChogyDan> [[thufir]]: well, I don't think it is a very good layout, since you might have problems.  But since you seem to be ok, why not?  right?
[20:00] <vick1188> what should we do when we buzz-off the grub using any window formatting session?
[20:01] <[[thufir]]> ok, what kind of problems and why?  because windows is last?  that relates to the MBR?
[20:01] <ChogyDan> [[thufir]]: yes, that is one issue.  The other issue is that your /home is tiny.  That is where all your personal files go
[20:01] <Kito> hi
[20:01] <Losha> [[thufir]]: the reason we ask is because usually windows is in the first partition, and sometimes will only work if it's there. If you've moved it, you can expect problems. If, on the other hand, it's always been there, you're probably ok.
[20:01] <meganiko> Guest37907 right click on the panel, add to panel > notification earea
[20:02] <Orion7> meganiko I have my notification area and there is no volume control listed under add to panel either
[20:02] <Neon0Blue> I need to backup my whole hdd cause I'm going to change the file system and such. Can anyone help?
[20:02] <Losha> Neon0Blue: backups are good. Where are you going to store the data?
[20:02] <Neon0Blue> External HDD for a while.
[20:03] <[[thufir]]> ok.  I made pastebin:  http://pastebin.com/NyNkp21A     how about the fact that the sda4, windows, has a boot of /windows.  I added that, is that correct?
[20:03] <meganiko> Orion7: the volume control is not a stanalone applet. It should appear in the notification area.
[20:03] <Losha> !backups | Neon0Blue
[20:03] <blocky> anyone know a way to make the build button in eclipse automatically save all open files?
[20:03] <[[thufir]]> pardon, I mean that I made a mount point of /windows for the xp partition.
[20:03] <joe____> Can anyone recommend a simple beginners guide for installing unix software? I'm confused by all the makefiles and command line scripts.
[20:03] <Orion7> meganiko odd, it was related to when I was messing around with pulseaudio. I have pulseaudio working fine but no sound control. let me try removing the notification area and then putting it back
[20:04] <brontosaurusrex> joe____: what are you trying to install?
[20:04] <sine`> guys what are the green files in the in the /directory listing
[20:04] <blakkheim> jimcooncat: you were the one i talked to about the 2tb drive right?
[20:04] <DarkStar1> what do %S and %s resolve to in samba??
[20:04] <joe____> x-chat
[20:05] <Orion7> meganiko no luck
[20:05] <brontosaurusrex> joe____: sudo apt-get install xchat
[20:05] <jimcooncat> I believe so, I looked up that USB id that you sent
[20:05] <ChogyDan> [[thufir]]: that isn't "correct"  in that you don't need that, but having it will allow you to access your windows drive.  You could name it anything
[20:05] <Kito> ************************************************************************
[20:05] <Kito> woopi
[20:05] <DarkStar1> anyone?
[20:05] <natrixnatrix89> if HD quality video playback and playback of videos on youtube is laggish. Does it mean I have to buy a better video card, or it could be something else too. my ram - 1gb and cpu 1ghz
[20:05] <brontosaurusrex> joe____: use repos when you can, thats the easy way
[20:05] <natrixnatrix89> ?
[20:05] <joe____> Thanks brontosaurusrex. I'll do that
[20:05] <cnd> does the "disable trackpad when typing" work right in karmic?
[20:05] <guntbert> Kito: please don't
[20:05] <blakkheim> jimcooncat: well the usb dock is fine, i just tested it with another sata drive and it was fine
[20:06] <Kito> guntbert: was done by mistake
[20:06] <guntbert> Kito: :)
[20:06] <blakkheim> jimcooncat: so then i put the 2tb drive in the computer and now gparted recognizes it. but i went to format it and it's taking quite a long time, still not done
[20:06] <[[thufir]]> ChogyDan: ok, so adding that as a mountpoint only really effects teh fstab file, doesn't really write to that partition, if I understand your point.
[20:06] <Losha> [[thufir]]: the question is, where was your windows partition before you decided to rearrange things...?
[20:06] <DarkStar1> anyone?
[20:06] <[[thufir]]> Losha: thanks for reminding me, I'll go back a step to make sure it was at sda4 to begin with.
[20:07] <jimcooncat> blakkheim: if you didn't partition it, ext3 would take a long time
[20:07] <blakkheim> jimcooncat: what would you suggest instead of ext3? (and why does it take so long specifically?)
[20:07] <gdb> DarkStar1: This is in the smb.conf man page.  %S is the current service, %s is the name of the file containing a winpopup message.
[20:07] <meganiko> orion7: really, it just doesn't show? weird. idk then, if i were you i'd reboot, but perhaps someone else can help you better. Sorry.
[20:07] <Losha> [[thufir]]: Also, you have 70G allocated to windows, and only 106M to /home. I think you need to start over...
[20:08] <Orion7> meganiko thanks for your help I'll go to the forums
[20:08] <gdb> DarkStar1: To find this stuff in the man page, "man smb.conf" and then hit slash (/) and type %s or %S and keep hitting "n" to move to each instance where it appears.
[20:08] <blakkheim> jimcooncat: also (it just finished) now it says 25gb of it is in use, what's up with that?
[20:08] <jimcooncat> blakkheim: I wouldn't suggest anything different. ext3 goes through your hd. reiserfs, for example, would format it in seconds -- but you still would have to run badblocks
[20:09] <jimcooncat> blakkheim: perhaps it carved out the 25 gb for the journal?
[20:09] <DarkStar1> gdb: thanks
[20:09] <blakkheim> jimcooncat: ouch, so that's normal?
[20:09] <gdb> It's probably 25GB worth of inodes at a 4k block size.
[20:09] <jimcooncat> blakkheim: it's been a while since I've been into that, I'm rusty
[20:09] <[[thufir]]> Losha: not too worried about space, just want to leave windows intact.  it's ok that no partition is marked /boot?
[20:10] <jimcooncat> gdb, I bet you're right about the inodes
[20:10] <blakkheim> jimcooncat: gdb: alright, i'll see if everything's working and come back if i have any more problems, thanks
[20:10] <Losha> jimcooncat: for maximum compatibility i.e. moving it to different systems, or using 3rd party tools on it (e.g. recovery) you want ext3...
[20:11] <jimcooncat> Losha: I'm not suggesting anything else, merely giving an example
[20:11] <Losha> [[thufir]]: not only do you need to conserve the windows partition, you need to keep it in the same place on the disk as it was originally or it may not boot. Also, it's ok on modern linuxes not to have a separate /boot.
[20:11] <Ascavasaion> How do I open a remote XP machine's desktop on my Ubuntu machine in a window of its own?
[20:11] <ChogyDan> [[thufir]]: yeah, that's fine
[20:11] <Losha> jimcooncat: I see...
[20:12] <gdb> Ascavasaion: Look into using tsclient.  It's a frontend for rdesktop.
[20:12] <jimcooncat> Losha: lots of people used to use reiserfs years back, but didn't check with badblocks, and got burned by it
[20:12] <Losha> Ascavasaion: if it's XP pro, you can enable remote desktop and use 'rdesktop' on Ubuntu to connect...
[20:12] <[[thufir]]> Losha: thanks.]
[20:12] <gdb> Ascavasaion: It's probably already installed under Applications > Internet
[20:12] <guntbert> Ascavasaion: applications/internet/terminal server client
[20:12] <[[thufir]]> ChogyDan: thanks.
[20:12] <gdb> what guntbert said heh
[20:13] <Ascavasaion> thanks all of you.
[20:13] <Losha> jimcooncat: reiserfs is as dead as Han's wife...
[20:13] <MatBoy> guys I need to run the command to disply my ecrypt key for my homedir
[20:13] <[[thufir]]> (oh, I checked.  windows was already on sda4 for whatever reason.)
[20:14] <Losha> [[thufir]]: that's quite unusual, but not impossible. What else was on that disk originally?
[20:14] <jimcooncat> Losha: nah, the tech is still good *for very special uses*, and kernel devs are still maintaining it. But good docs on it are harder to find, and you need to RTFM on that one.
[20:15] <Fuzion24> I got ubuntu to boot sucessfully again, but the boot animation is gone.  How do i fix that?
[20:15] <[[thufir]]> Losha: it is currently set as duall boot fedora 5 and windows xp.
[20:15] <underdev> Anyone get emacs-w3m working on with emacs23 on Ubuntu 9.10?
[20:15] <guntbert> MatBoy: you will find nearly everything about encrypted home directories in http://www.linux-mag.com/cache/7568/1.html
[20:15] <Losha> jimcooncat: oh, I expected it would disappear entirely as ext4 catches on...
[20:16] <Losha> underdev: you have 3 options: upgrade emacs22, force install emacs-w3m and hope that it works, or look on the web for a version known to work with emacs22 and install it by hand. Or switch to vi :-)
[20:16] <MatBoy> guntbert: but not that command that is ran after your install to show your key
[20:16] <Gadu> This is seriously a deal breaker for me in 9.10... There MUST be a way to permanently hide the last gnome panel without losing my alt+f1 and alt+f2 functionality
[20:16] <jimcooncat> Losha: nothing is a good on maildirs IMHO, but that is a dying use case.
[20:16] <gdb> resiser will likely be around until btrfs is "stable"
[20:16] <ZummiG777> Question: I accepted a patch this morning but would likel to see the changelog - is there a place ubuntu has these listed (the package is samba)
[20:17] <gdb> ext4 isn't really a replacement for it
[20:17] <Wiebe> Is it possible to change from a desktop linux kernel to a server linux kernel ? and how ? :P
[20:17] <Gadu> I DO NOT want to see that tiny empty bar sitting on my screen for no reason... seriously
[20:17] <xangua> Gadu: hide != eliminate
[20:17] <Losha> [[thufir]]: ok, so how were the fedora 5 partition laid out on the disk?
[20:17] <jimcooncat> Losha: "as good" I meant
[20:17] <orloff> please help! ubuntu 8.04.4 after installing ati driver and ati control center i don't see my mouse, it's working but i don't see cursor. what i must do? sorry for my english
[20:17] <Wiebe> My VPS provider has a default linux kernel thats not supported by ksplice :(
[20:17] <[[thufir]]> Losha: same partitioning, except I updated from ext2 to ext3 and set the mount points.
[20:17] <Gadu> xangau: I used to be able to hide said panel with monitor=3 in gconf-editor for that panel
[20:17] <underdev> Losha: what do you mean "upgrade 22"
[20:17] <Losha> jimcooncat: got it. As you say, if not a dying case, certainly a special use case...
[20:17] <[[thufir]]> my partitioning message:  http://pastebin.com/jrFw57CS
[20:17] <MatBoy> Wiebe: most vps providers suck
[20:18] <underdev> Losha: i'm at emacs 23
[20:18] <Gadu> xangau: this doesn't work in 9.10 and I cannot accept it
[20:18] <vito_> salve a tutti
[20:18] <Losha> [[thufir]]: why is /home so tiny?
[20:18] <xangua> Gadu: if you just hide the panel you can perfectly use the menu and launcher (alt+f1 alt+f2)
[20:18] <Wiebe> MatBoy the amazon ec2 image gets installed by them by default :/
[20:18] <mawst> It's really irritating having to restart firefox sometimes to watch flash videos. I can't be the only one suffering from this.
[20:18] <Losha> underdev: oh, didn't your first msg ask about emacs22? I missed the change...
[20:18] <orloff> please help! ubuntu 8.04.4 after installing ati driver and ati control center i don't see my mouse, it's working but i don't see cursor. what i must do? sorry for my english
[20:18] <histo> mawst: make sure you have the newest version of flash
[20:19] <[[thufir]]> Losha: that partition was there, so I figured it must be home.  I was hesitant to resize any partitions.  it doesn't have to be usable, just, err, bootable.
[20:19] <histo> orloff: what is your native language?
[20:19] <Myrtti> mawst: no, you're not. It's because flash crashes and firefox can't recover from it crashing gracefully.
[20:19] <vito_> hello
[20:19] <orloff> russian
[20:19] <guntbert> MatBoy: sure - there are three pages
[20:19] <histo> !ru | orloff
[20:19] <[[thufir]]> mawst: that doesn't effect me, but I use flashgot and download helper.
[20:19] <Fuzion24> startupmanager is not showing options for usplash
[20:19] <Myrtti> mawst: chrome/chromium has a bit more elegant way of recovering from the crashes, but it doesn't remove the problem.
[20:19] <Losha> [[thufir]]: no, $20 says it was /boot (because of the tiny size). Where was /home ?
[20:19] <MatBoy> guntbert: ok, thanks for the link
[20:19] <MatBoy> Wiebe: these comapnies are too huge
[20:20] <orloff> i don't wanna to register my nik
[20:20] <guntbert> MatBoy: you're welcome :-)
[20:20] <histo> !nickserv > orloff
[20:20] <MatBoy> Wiebe: and the smaller ones that are no flexible suck too
[20:20] <mawst> I may reinstall chrome and give that a go.
[20:20] <Losha> ChogyDan: you still following this conversation?
[20:20] <MatBoy> guntbert: wow, when can I visit you ?
[20:20] <ChogyDan> Losha: no, I hadn't
[20:20] <[[thufir]]> Losha: ahhhh, that makes sense.  so, I need to change that.  since /boot isn't needed (?) either merge it with the root partition, or make it larger at expense of root partition.  yes?
[20:21] <Fuzion24> not really sure what is going on.. Cant get usplash back
[20:21] <Losha> ChogyDan: ok, never mind. Its just that I love 2nd opinions
[20:21] <user___> im really at a loss here, how can i even begin to debug an ubuntu issue if it wont even log into recovery mode?
[20:21] <ShackJack> Hi all - I have Ubuntu Netbook Remix on an Asus 1005PE - works great except the brightness doesn't stay set; anyone know of a fix?
[20:21] <Fuzion24> All the information I am finding is regarding grub 1
[20:21] <Gadu> xangua: I want the panel to be completely gone. it shouldn't even show up when my mouse goes over where ever it is hidden
[20:21] <Gadu> xangua: moving it to a non-existent monitor was the perfect solution prior to 9.10....
[20:22] <Losha> [[thufir]]: none of those are worth bothering with as it's so tiny, just leave it as /boot. I repeat: what happened to /home?
[20:22] <histo> !register | orloff
[20:22] <[[thufir]]> Losha: the fedora install never had a seperate /home, I'd have to create that.
[20:22] <gdb> Gadu: You can't right click the panel and click "Remove Panel"?  Is that not an available option?
[20:23] <xangua> Gadu: you can use 'ocult buttons'
[20:23] <Losha> Kito: please don't PM me. Ask your questions here in the main channel...
[20:23] <Scorpion_on> бу
[20:23] <Scorpion_on> sorry
[20:23] <ChogyDan> Losha: I agree that that small partition was probably /boot.  I would guess that /home was just part of /
[20:23] <sine`> the white ones are binaryfiles, the blue ones are folders what are the green and red, green syslink ?
[20:23] <Losha> [[thufir]]: was there nothing interesting in /home that you need to preserve? That's usually where users keep all their personal files...
[20:23] <[[thufir]]> ok, this makes more sense, guys.  should I leave /boot alone as ext2 for safety?
[20:23] <Gadu> ShackJack: yes I fixed that on my netbook as well, let me boot it up to get the settings for you
[20:24] <[[thufir]]> no, no personal data on the fedora partitions that needs to be kept.
[20:24] <Losha> [[thufir]]: ext2 or ext3 is fine. I would move it to ext3, but it's not very important...
[20:24] <Gadu> gdb: you can't do that on the last panel
[20:24] <[[thufir]]> I'll leave it, and not create a /home.  makes more sense now.
[20:24] <ShackJack> Gadu: Thanks - I may have found it just now; while looking something to do with editing GRUB?
[20:24] <orloff> please help! ubuntu 8.04.4 after installing ati driver and ati control center i don't see my mouse, it's working but i don't see cursor. what i must do? I DON'T WANNA register my nikname cause without mouse it's difficult to me
[20:24] <brontosaurusrex> sine`: in terminal?
[20:24] <ChogyDan> [[thufir]]: that last thing you said means you need to change what you are doing.  You can't format if that is what you want
[20:25] <Gadu> xangua: what is ocult buttons? (looks it up)
[20:25] <DrDank> Hey guys.. Im wondering.. I heard about using VMWare to use ubuntu inside windows. - I should be able to run it dual monitor mode? windows on one monitor and linux on the other? can UBuntu do the same stuff as it could if it was installed to the hard drive??
[20:25] <ETusha> hi all
[20:25] <gdb> Gadu: I'm curious, is a desktop really what you need then?  Have you considered just using a plan jane window manager instead?
[20:25] <Gadu> gdb: I use cairo-dock instead of a panel
[20:25] <gdb> Ah!
[20:25] <victor__> If I have an Intel i5 processor, should I install Ubuntu 64-bit?
[20:25] <Bubbi> Hey all, I'm new to using ubuntu (yeah, sorry) and I am hitting some problems with the CLI. I'm trying to run a Call of Duty 4 dedicated server, and i'm trying to run a file in the directory.. but it keeps giving me a "no such file or directory". I have made it work on a vmware machine, but I can't make it work on my own machine
[20:26] <Losha> [[thufir]]: ok, then you are ready to go. If you need more /home space later, you can shrink the windows partition and expand / into the space
[20:26] <xangua> Gadu: don't really know how are they called in inglish :S (right clic in panel> select properties> general> show hide buttons maybe¿
[20:26] <JustinD> @DrDank You can do it, it's pretty resource intensive, and it's not just a drag and drop Window.
[20:26] <Losha> [[thufir]]: I have to leave in 5 minutes. Best of luck...
[20:26] <DrDank> JustinD, So what I need is VMWare player to be installed and the ubuntu iso right?
[20:26] <[[thufir]]> Losha: thanks, np.
[20:26] <orloff> how can i see my cursor again???
[20:26] <xangua> Gadu: http://img56.imageshack.us/my.php?image=stiscreenshot.png
[20:26] <orloff> please help
[20:27] <Gadu> ShackJack: Power Management, On AC Power: uncheck Dim display when idle and Set display brightness to: your desired brightness
[20:27] <[[thufir]]> ChogyDan: thank you.  I'm proceeding fairly confident now :)
[20:27] <JustinD> @DrDank I'm a VMware ESX admin, I don't use most of the other versions, lemme check.
[20:27] <xangua> orloff: do you have compiz on¿
[20:27] <Losha> [[thufir]]: one last thing, make a backup of the windows partition if you can, in case the unthinkable happens...
[20:27] <Gadu> ShackJack: then in On Battery Power, uncheck Reduce backlight brightness and Dim display when idle
[20:27] <orloff> that is it? soory
[20:27] <ChogyDan> [[thufir]]: ok.  Keep in mind that any partition that is formatted will lose all its data
[20:27] <orloff> sorry
[20:27] <guntbert> Bubbi: first idea: how did you call that program? remember that the current directory is not in the search path
[20:28] <DrDank> JustinD, cool man.. I appricate it. Think I could run smoothly with 2.8ghz and 2gig ram?
[20:28] <[[thufir]]> ChogyDan: yes.  oh, at the "advanced" portion prior to format, should I install a boot loader to a partition?  sda4 for windows xp?
[20:28] <Bubbi> guntbert: I am inside the directory and write: ./cod4_lnxded
[20:28] <Gadu> xangua: that is by no means permanent, I don't want any bit of the last panel to ever show
[20:28] <user___> something ive done has killed my machine, its either me changing telinit to 3 or update-rc.d -f gdm remove
[20:28] <ShackJack> Gadu - thanks - will take a look - though the issue also is that the brightness is incosistent when adjusting via KB - do you know if it fixes that issue as well (just want to say I think Empathy sucks BTW - going back to Pidgin - bleh)
[20:28] <JustinD> @DrDank: I'd use the VMware Workstation software on a windows box. that'll let you create a vmdk (virtual harddrive) on your windows machine, and install an OS.
[20:28] <Bubbi> guntbert: How do you mean that the directory is not in the search path?
[20:29] <amcsi> hello
[20:29] <ChogyDan> [[thufir]]: what do you mean "sda4 for windows xp?"
[20:29] <amcsi> how do I force change of refresh rate of one of my monitors out of my 2?
[20:29] <rew\> hi
[20:29] <[[thufir]]> yes.  options are sda, sda1...sda4.  sda4 is the windows xp partition.  should a bootloader be installed to any of those?
[20:30] <Gadu> ShackJack: I must agree with the Empathy sucks comment, I also put pidgin back XD. I'm not very good with acronyms, what is KB?
[20:30] <ChogyDan> [[thufir]]: no, you need to have a boot loader on sda.  Those option are if you already have one on sda, and want to configure and use that one
[20:30] <guntbert> Bubbi: you called it correctly (I meant you have to tell the bash to look in the current directory) , please try (to prevent typos) ./cod<tab>
[20:30] <djveer> okay guys, one more weird one for you.... got my ubuntu box connected to the network.. set up for DHCP. I get an address no problem from DHCP server.. but no network communication is possible. Pings in either direction don't work.. can't connect to apache running on the machine.. or SSH for that matter. But statically configuring the interface works
[20:30] <ShackJack> Gadu: sorry - keyboard - the birghtness adjusts randomly when I do it via keyboard
[20:31] <[[thufir]]> ChogyDan: ok, thanks.
[20:31] <Zeratul2k2> I select a boot option (any kernel) and after a while it sends me to a "gave up waiting for root device" message and shell
[20:31] <Zeratul2k2> tried messing around with rootdelay to no avail
[20:31] <ShackJack> Gadu: forgot to add - then goes to full brightness on it's own...
[20:31] <Bubbi> guntbert: When I type ./cod<tab> it finishes the filename correctly, so that it is ready to be executed
[20:31] <user___> ok ive booted my machine from cd, as the ubuntu on the computer wont boot, can i fix it from here?
[20:31] <orloff> anybody!!! after installing ati control center and driver my mouse is dead
[20:31] <guntbert> Bubbi: and when you press <enter>?
[20:31] <Zeratul2k2> Also tried using absolute path to root instead of the uuid, nothing as well
[20:32] <Gadu> ShackJack: my setting changes fix the full brightness issue. I never had the random brightness with buttons issue
[20:32] <ha1331> what would be good tool for creating and managing raid array? Gui would be great.
[20:32] <Bubbi> guntbert: Then it gives me this message: -bash: ./cod4_lnxded: No such file or directory
[20:32] <Bubbi> guntbert: Should I do something to add it to the search path.?
[20:32] <Gadu> ShackJack: then again, I set my desired brightness in the power management so I rarely need to change it (once a month maybe?)
[20:33] <ShackJack> Gadu: Thanks - I'll see if it works - good so far; saw another thread suggesting to make a grub update but will try first... And I'm off to install Pidggin RIGHT NOW - BYE BYE empathy :P
[20:33] <andywww> I have 2 disks I have introduced into my box.. I have prepared them to be software raided but they don't have a filesystem on them as yet
[20:33] <Gadu> DEATH TO EMPATHY!!!
[20:33] <guntbert> Bubbi: no, that should be ok
[20:33] <Gadu> XD
[20:33] <andywww> can someone point me to a guide on how to introduce disks after installation?
[20:33] <orloff> nobody helps me?((((((
[20:33] <Zeratul2k2> any ideas on the GRUB problem?
[20:33] <KB1JWQ> Gadu: plz to keep it topical.
[20:33] <user___> i know the feeling
[20:34] <guntbert> Bubbi: what gives ls -l <thatfile> ?
[20:34] <ChogyDan> user___: I would think that telinit wouldn't be able to mess things up like that
[20:34] <Gadu> KB1JWQ: I was replying to ShackJack
[20:34] <KB1JWQ> Gadu: Doh, sorry.
[20:34] <histo> !fstab | andywww
[20:34] <Bubbi> guntbert: When I write ls -l, this is the result: -rwxr-xr-x 1 martin martin 2278333 2010-03-25 21:19 cod4_lnxded
[20:35] <rethus1> mail on bash... i try to send a file....
[20:35] <argued> guys, anyone - please, I really need help with getting some applications running
[20:35] <andywww> thx
[20:35] <rethus1> mail -a file.txt ... but this send only the text file.txt instead of the file themself
[20:35] <user___> orloff, if you unistall does mouse functionality return?
[20:35] <rethus1> which option have i to use to send a mail on bash
[20:36] <histo> rethus1: there are many options
[20:36] <guntbert> Bubbi: strange - is that file a script? then it could be a file called from within that is not found
[20:36] <ChogyDan> argued: please state your problem, and all in one line
[20:36] <histo> rethus1: do you just want to send mail and not receive?
[20:36] <gdb> rethus1: mail -s "subject" user@host < file
[20:36] <gdb> rethus1: file needs to be text
[20:36] <rethus1> thanks gdb, but can i also attach the file... this would insert the text in the mailbotdy ?!
[20:36] <histo> gdb: that doesn't work on a default install I believe
[20:37] <user___> ChogyDan, thanks
[20:37] <histo> rethus1: you need to install a mta I would suggest ssmtp  if you don't need a full blown mail server.
[20:37] <histo> !info ssmtp | rethus1
[20:37] <Bubbi> guntbert: It's a binary file, as far as I know.. I can execute it on my VMWare ubuntu, but not on my "real" ubuntu system.. very weird. And i'm writing the exact same thing
[20:37] <Zeratul2k2> My Ubuntu 9.10 install fails to boot with any kernel, throwing a "gave up for root device" and falling to a shell. Tried messing around with rootdelay and using absolute paths to root instead of uuid but nothing seems to work. Any ideas?
[20:38] <histo> Zeratul2k2: has it ever worked?
[20:38] <Bubbi> guntbert: When I execute it in my VM, then it actually runs and give me alot of feedback, but on the real machine, it just throws that error
[20:38] <Zeratul2k2> @histo: yes, it was working well until last saturday, when I last rebooted it
[20:38] <llutz> histo: even with an mta installed, "mail" cannot send attachments
[20:38] <llutz> rethus1: use uuencode to encode and embed your attachment into the mailbody
[20:39] <guntbert> Bubbi: (I'm fishing for ideas) - what gives file <thatfile> ?
[20:39] <argued> ChogyDan: sonata, guadayeque and other applications wont start in GUI, I get "received an X Window System error" and nothing happens
[20:39] <rethus1> llutz: ok. thanks
[20:39] <rethus1> other question... i have forgot my local mysql password. how can i reset it
[20:39] <llutz> rethus1: look here http://www.unix.com/unix-advanced-expert-users/2325-email-attachment-message-using-mailx.html
[20:39] <histo> rethus1: you can use ssmtp and mutt
[20:40] <user___> ChogyDan, perhaps update-rc.d -f gdm remove? although that should have just prevent gnome from starting
[20:40] <Bubbi> guntbert: You are more than welcome to fish all you like :-) It gives this: cod4_lnxded: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.4.18, stripped
[20:40] <histo> llutz: yes it can with mut
[20:40] <llutz> histo: read what i wrote
[20:40] <guntbert> Bubbi: and is your system 32bit?
[20:40] <Bubbi> guntbert: Good question my man.. how do I test for that..?
[20:41] <gui7> ello
[20:41] <guntbert> Bubbi: what gives uname -a ?
[20:41] <gui7> how can i change the permisions of a folder/files on a samba share (setup on a ubuntu computer) that was created from a windows computer?
[20:41] <Bubbi> guntbert: it gives me this: Linux vserver1 2.6.31-14-server #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 16 15:07:34 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[20:41] <Zeratul2k2> so, any ideas?
[20:42] <gui7> it gives me permission denied, and i need to delete them
[20:42] <ChogyDan> user___: sorry, I really don't know anything more
[20:42] <Bubbi> guntbert: And i've just tried it on the vmware also, it gives me this: Linux ubuntu 2.6.31-20-generic #58-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 12 04:38:19 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[20:42] <ChogyDan> argued: I don't know, sonata works for me
[20:42] <guntbert> Bubbi: there you are: x86_64 means it is a 64bit OS - you need the 64 bit version then
[20:43] <Bubbi> guntbert: As far as I can see, both systems are 64bit :S
[20:43] <argued> ChogyDan: It does work for for may ppl yes and I would like to join that group... damn - this one is hard to figure out since I dont know where to start
[20:44] <KjetilK> I'm trying to connect my laptop running 9.10 to the Internet through my HTC Hero, currently using USB cable, but I've also tried Bluetooth
[20:44] <Orion7> I am trying to start a new X server, when I go to command line (cntrl-alt-f2) and xinit -- :3 I get what I want (nvidia settings are loaded), when I try to do this from a script (X :3 -ac & nvidia-settings --load-config-only, nvidia complains that there is no active screen)
[20:44] <gui7> how can i change the permissions on a shared samba folder on ubuntu?
[20:44] <KjetilK> in neither case, I get the promised wizard
[20:44] <gui7> it was created from windows
[20:44] <guntbert> Bubbi: unbelievable :-) -- why it executes in the VM? - but it seems I'm out of ideas (except you try to get a 64bit version of your server)
[20:44] <ChogyDan> argued: if this is a fresh install, file a bug report
[20:45] <KjetilK> also, the "Mobile broadband" tab is disabled (grey) in the plasma app
[20:45] <user___> is there a recovery disk for ubuntu?
[20:45] <argued> ChogyDan: nothing fresh here ;P ugly hacks all over the system
[20:45] <Bubbi> guntbert: I'm really puzzled.. I can see that there is a difference in the version of linux, but other than that - i'm all out of ideas myself :D
[20:45] <Dan_E> guntbert:  what does this mean? desktop 2.6.31-20-generic #58-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 12 05:23:09 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux
[20:45] <gui7> help, please! how can i change the permissions on a samba share's folder?
[20:45] <Bubbi> guntbert: Thank you for trying to help, i'll see if I can get it working somehow :-)
[20:46] <guntbert> Dan_E: its 32bit
[20:46] <mkanyicy> KjetilK, using KDE?
[20:46] <Dan_E> ty
[20:46] <guntbert> Bubbi: you're welcome :-) sorry it didn't work out - Good luck :-)
[20:46] <KjetilK> mkanyicy, yeah
[20:46] <hvgotcodes> im using scp to copy some files, every now and again i see a protocol error...what does this mean?
[20:46] <gui7> help, please! how can i change the permissions on a samba share folder created from windows?
[20:46] <KjetilK> so, I should head over to #kubuntu?
[20:47] <guntbert> user___: the live CD - or you can start recovery mode from the grub menu
[20:47] <drinkycrow> i booted from a flash drive that i made with unetbootin of the netbook remix, and the desktop comes up but i can't control anything. my touchpad and keyboard are both unresponsive
[20:47] <Zeratul2k2> My Ubuntu 9.10 install fails to boot with any kernel, throwing a "gave up for root device" and falling to a shell. Tried messing around with rootdelay and using absolute paths to root instead of uuid but nothing seems to work. Any ideas? It was booting up normally before today.
[20:47] <mkanyicy> KjetilK, dont know, on gnome, that wizard shows up or else on the panel you can configure 'mobile broadband'
[20:47] <user___> guntbert, the recovery mod doesnt boot either, im in the live cd at the moment but i dont think i can ru nthe command i need from here
[20:48] <KjetilK> guntbert, come to think of it, I never figured out how to avoid the splash screen, that hides most of the bootup sequence...
[20:48] <KjetilK> mkanyicy, ok, I'll try over there
[20:48] <mkanyicy> Zeratul2k2, using grub2?
[20:48] <jkd4> could anyone tell me where I can look to find a way to get a display on the ubuntu desktop that shows things like your processor, memory, swap and hard drive use, cpu temperature, etc.?
[20:48] <Zeratul2k2> yeah, it's a fresh 9.10 install
[20:48] <guntbert> user___: what do you need to do?
[20:49] <ab3> hello
[20:49] <mkanyicy> Zeratul2k2, have more that on hdd?
[20:49] <mkanyicy> Zeratul2k2, more than one
[20:49] <Scotie> Hallo
[20:49] <Zeratul2k2> no, just one, with four partitions: WinXP, small NTFS one for the HP recovery tools, Ubuntu and Swap
[20:49] <Orion7> god i hate empathy
[20:49] <ab3> what is the best cmd line music player to use as a backend of a webapp?
[20:49] <ab3> is mplayer a good choice?
[20:50] <user___> gutbert, i think my problem was caused by running the command "update-rd.d -f  gdm remove". so i would like to run "update-rd.d - gdm install"
[20:50] <jkd4> Orion7: have you tried pidgin?
[20:50] <Orion7> can you run xinit from already running X server
[20:50] <Orion7> yea pidgin & xchat are far better
[20:50] <jkd4> ab3: yes
[20:50] <Orion7> for IRC anyways
[20:51] <jkd4> ab3: oh wait
[20:51] <user___> Orion7, pidgin does beat empathy imo for most things
[20:51] <guntbert> !tab | user___
[20:51] <mkanyicy> jkd4, system monitor
[20:51] <jkd4> ab3: dont listen to me I didn't see your whole question
[20:51] <user___> guntbert: thankyou
[20:51] <jkd4> mkanyicy: yes but I want it on my desktop like all those users with hot themes have
[20:51] <ab3> jkd4: k :)
[20:51] <audifahrer> Hello
[20:51] <Zeratul2k2> any ideas on the GRUB problem?
[20:52] <brent_> ahh xchat, so much better
[20:52] <mkanyicy> Zeratul2k2, did it ever worked before?
[20:52] <mkanyicy> Zeratul2k2, not even once?
[20:52] <Zeratul2k2> mkanyicy: yes, it was working perfectly before today
[20:52] <Howitzer> brent_, than?
[20:52] <audifahrer> I've a system without X windows here. How is it possible to mount my SD card? At insert dmesg tells me "mmc0 new SD card at address cde5"
[20:52] <guntbert> user___: you will need to set up a chroot environment - look at http://www.nistor.co.uk/2009/12/chroot-into-ubuntu-from-debian/
[20:52] <mkanyicy> Zeratul2k2, and you booted windows the last time?
[20:53] <brent_> Howitzer, than empathy
[20:53] <mkanyicy> Zeratul2k2, can you still remember?
[20:53] <Meltok> Hi, I play an audio-cd with vlc. Its not really a pleasure because the cd runs with much more than 1x speed. Does anybody know a possible solution to reduce cd spin for audio playback?
[20:53] <jkd4> could anyone tell me where I can look to find a way to get a display-eyecandy type thing on the ubuntu desktop that shows things like your processor, memory, swap and hard drive use, cpu temperature, etc.?
[20:53] <Zeratul2k2> mkanyicy: No, last time I was working on Ubuntu. I mostly left the WinXP partition there because it was required by my uni's techs
[20:54] <antivirtel> re
[20:54] <mkanyicy> Zeratul2k2, ok, insert a livecd and boot into it and recover grub and place it back into the MBR
[20:54] <Zeratul2k2> mkanyicy: but I tried booting into windows when I saw it wasn't working and it booted ok
[20:54] <brent_> so xinit from command line only, or can it be called to create a new x server from inside another x server
[20:54] <flodis_> What's the name of that little icon near the clock that lets you start your IM-messenger and evolution from a menu?
[20:54] <brent_> e.g. from the gui
[20:54] <Zeratul2k2> mkanyicy: grub-install?
[20:55] <Scotie> # install+1
[20:55] <mkanyicy> Zeratul2k2, the reason for me to ask you is that HP laptops have a tendency of crashing grub2
[20:55] <Scotie> # ubuntu+1µ
[20:55] <StaRetji> Meltok, maybe http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=26864
[20:56] <brent_> what is the difference between xinit and X
[20:56] <mkanyicy> Zeratul2k2, I forgot the syntax, it's been sometime, its 'sudo grub-install --recheck --root-directory=mount_point_of_ubuntu /dev/sda'
[20:56] <jrib> brent_: what are you trying to accomplish?
[20:56] <Zeratul2k2> mkanyicy: yes, it's an HP laptop... let me try with the LiveCD, then
[20:56] <mkanyicy> Zeratul2k2, that works on grub legacy
[20:57] <brent_> jrib, starting a new x server to run a game
[20:57] <Meltok> StaRetji: Thx, but this would lower the speed in general. I thought an audioplayer would know, that audio-cd-playback is sufficient with 1x :)
[20:57] <mkanyicy> Zeratul2k2, am not sure about the grub2 recovery syntax but try ubuntugeek
[20:57] <Meltok> StaRetji: Probably its an vlc issue?
[20:57] <jrib> brent_: use startx
[20:57] <urag> anyone here good with useing sed?
[20:57] <Zeratul2k2> mkanyicy: I'll get on the man pages and be back once I do that
[20:57] <StaRetji> Meltok, don't know mate, have you tried with some other player?
[20:58] <brent_> jrib, wont that start a resource heavy WM?
[20:58] <jrib> urag: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line)
[20:58] <mkanyicy> Zeratul2k2, if it is HP you will see it yourself, it will work fine until you boot windows. next time your grub wont boot ubuntu again
[20:58] <Zeratul2k2> mkanyicy: to inform if it works or not
[20:58] <jrib> brent_: only if you tell it to
[20:58] <brent_> jrib, thanks
[20:58] <mkanyicy> Zeratul2k2, good luck
[20:58] <Zeratul2k2> mkanyicy: thanks
[20:59] <jrib> !away > bipolar_away

[20:59] <StaRetji> Meltok, http://www.ubuntugeek.com/ubuntu-media-players-overview.html
[20:59] <StaRetji> Meltok, worth a try
[20:59] <Meltok> StaRetji: Ok, i'll take a look there first. Thx! :)
[20:59] <StaRetji> welcome

[21:05] <rahearn> mha2908_: once everything is installed, use sysv-rc-conf or a similar tool to tell it not to start gdm as a service
[21:05] <mha2908_> how to use that? Is it a script, or a file that I need to edit? Am, obviously, new to this ubuntu stuff
[21:06] <jkd4> could anyone tell me where I can look to find a way to get a display-eyecandy type thing on the ubuntu desktop that shows things like your processor, memory, swap and hard drive use, cpu temperature, etc.?
[21:06] <theshow4life> I have a problem with my display driver. i just finished ubuntu 9.10 and wanted to use the effects when i click on the effects it downloaded the driver i needed and installed it then when i restarted all i get is a black screen. by the way i got a nvidia 8800 gts in SLI
[21:06] <blakkheim> mha2908_: sudo aptitude install sysv-rc-conf; sudo sysv-rc-conf
[21:06] <blakkheim> mha2908_: do that in terminal
[21:06] <mha2908_> and that'll do the trick? Thx
[21:06] <rahearn> sysv-rc-conf is a program that is run from the command line with sudo, it displays a kind of matrix
[21:06] <h7k> hi
[21:07] <h7k> ;/
[21:07] <rahearn> you'll just find the intersection of gdm and run level 2 (hopefully this will be more obvious when you're running the program) and make sure there isn't an X in that box
[21:07] <p3rror> edakiri, very strange
[21:07] <jkd4> did rahearn just give malicious code?
[21:07] <p3rror> edakiri, does not work
[21:07] <mawst> Is it just me or does Chrome seem faster than Firefox?
[21:08] <p3rror> edakiri, i've did the install manually so i placed the plugin in the .mozilla/plugins
[21:08] <jkd4> even if chrome is faster, it's not safer
[21:08] <mickster04> mawst: it is
[21:08] <theshow4life> I have a problem with my display driver. i just finished ubuntu 9.10 and wanted to use the effects when i click on the effects it downloaded the driver i needed and installed it then when i restarted all i get is a black screen. by the way i got a nvidia 8800 gts in SLI
[21:08] <rahearn> jdk4: not in the least.  what part of running a repository supplied program for its intended purpose would be malicious?
[21:08] <lappie> can someone tell me how to get ubuntu to shut its self down after a specific inactivity time
[21:09] <bastid_raZor> lappie: power management
[21:09] <jkd4> could anyone tell me where I can look to find a way to get a display-eyecandy type thing on the ubuntu desktop that shows things like your processor, memory, swap and hard drive use, cpu temperature, etc.?

[21:10] <mattgyver> jkd4 you could use conky, its not very flashy but works well, or just use screenlets
[21:10] <socket_77> jkd4: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/conky-a-light-weight-system-monitor-for-ubuntu-linux-systems.html
[21:10] <mattgyver> screenlets are kinda bulky but they look much more visually pleasing, though i prefer conky

[21:21] <edakiri> and liboobs?
[21:21] <moosekaka> better means more stable/less regression/driver support

[21:22] <p3rror> edakiri, the same
[21:22] <p3rror> edakiri, The remote console feature requires a Java Virtual Machine. Click here to download a JVM. Download it now if the Remote Console is not displayed below.
[21:22] <deanus> moosekaka, lucid 64..  karmic doesnt support your ati OOTB, but lucid does.. and will have FGLRX drivers ready soon..
[21:22] <mickster04> moosekaka: the latest is good from a fresh install, and is old enough to be quite bugless
[21:22] <theshow4life> this irc  channel sucks noone helps
[21:23] <theshow4life> I have a problem with my display driver. i just finished ubuntu 9.10 and wanted to use the effects when i click on the effects it downloaded the driver i needed and installed it then when i restarted all i get is a black screen. by the way i got a nvidia 8800 gts in SLI
[21:23] <faron> give em time theshow4life
[21:23] <deanus> moosekaka, with karmic you might have to choose safe gfx mode to boot the livecd, and then install the driver to get propre screen res..
[21:23] <theshow4life> ok sorry
[21:23] <deanus> moosekaka, well for me and my ati 4650 thats what I had to do.
[21:23] <mickster04> theshow4life: have you tried turning sli off/
[21:23] <riktking> cant write to a drive on a network pc running ubuntu 9.10
[21:23] <maco> orb360: not cool
[21:23] <moosekaka> hmm what about 8.04 then for a 64 bit version on an ASUS mobo and amd
[21:24] <moosekaka> im not really keen on trying a beta
[21:24] <edakiri> p3rror: i don't know why it does not work.  try update-java-alternatives, or whatever it is called (see web page), restart browser, if it still does not work, try a gcj-plugin

[21:25] <theshow4life> other thank unpluging the sli cable
[21:25] <deanus> moosekaka, if you are going to install 1 but dont want to use beta, then use karmic.
[21:26] <m0ar> I've got an odd situation, my web browser always starts when I boot up by some reason. Firefox did, and when I sat Opera as standard browser it did too
[21:26] <moosekaka> what is FGLRX
[21:26] <edakiri> p3rror: do you have IP6 to IP4 bridging turned off, perhaps with sysctl?  That wrecks openjdk & sunjava
[21:26] <Terran333> i only find out Ubuntu 9.10 amd 64,why?

[21:27] <faron> tried  sudo apt-get install mozilla-plugin-gnash...am told already newest version but I know better any suggestions guys/gals ?
[21:27] <deanus> moosekaka, ati`s driver, rather than the free open source driver, which, for your card as i said, isnt supported in karmic without adding a ppa and updating the kernel/xorg
[21:28] <xangua> faron: eh¿¿
[21:28] <MarkProffitt> My new install of 9.10 on HP dv7 is not playing sounds.  The audio monitor shows that it should be making sound but nothing is coming out.  Yes the volume is at 100%.
[21:28] <mcurran> Is there a command that shows an existing files' permissions, so if I want to edit a file, I can chmod it back afterwards
[21:28] <moosekaka> ughh....you know what messing aroudn with the xorg....i think i rather try beta
[21:28] <moosekaka> so lucid will recognize my ATI ootb?
[21:28] <deanus> moosekaka, you might be fine booting a karmic livecd, but if you have trouble you`ll have to choose safe gfx mode from boot menu..
[21:29] <MarkProffitt> mcurran  ls -l
[21:29] <llutz> mcurran: ls -l file
[21:29] <faron> newest ver already installed but I know better...been to the website I have ver 8.2 & newest is 8.7
[21:29] <deanus> moosekaka, no thats just the free driver.. fglrx (in hardware drivers) works fine
[21:29] <faron> thank you xangua
[21:29] <llutz> faron: get source, build yourself

Any idea on why.  or what file is used in place of syslinux.cfg on ubuntu 9.10 as I can't find that either?  be really grateful for any help.  Thanks
[21:31] <histo> ubuntu: are you trying to reinstall grub or just get back to your windows partition?

[21:33] <deanus> moosekaka, just try the livecd.. if it boots into the GUI fine, then you can install no worries and then enable the 3d driver easy.. if yo cant boot it, and get blank screen, then you`ll need to boot into safe gfx mode (one of the F keys at livecd boot menu, F4 I think)... then you can install and then enable the 3d driver..

[21:44] <daniskami> Bonster: http://www.commandlinefu.com/commands/view/1564/send-keypresses-to-an-x-application
[21:44] <MarkProffitt> My sound is not working.  It seems like hardware problem but its a new computer and was working before I installed Ubuntu
[21:44] <MarkProffitt> can I get some help
[21:44] <daniskami> Bonster: but usually, there's a better way, just tell us what you are trying to accomplish
[21:44] <StaRetji> JustinD, just a note, I want to change where the deb will be installed, if possible at all
[21:45] <JustinD> @StaRetji: not really, a dpkg is pre-configured.
[21:45] <MarkProffitt> These are my settings.  http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=9fad16a600f898227084f801ef8900821d86aefd
[21:45] <MarkProffitt> No sound is coming out
[21:45] <Danzl3> anyoen know how I can allow www-data to kill a process ?
[21:45] <JustinD> @StaRetji: you would have to change the configure options.
[21:45] <nonameNN> any good app for reading pdb files??
[21:45] <mcurran> Thank you Mkanyicy!
[21:45] <Bonster> daniskami, well trying to make an unzip script, but some zip has passwords and i want to skip it, so the only way is to press enter, as far as i know
[21:45] <jimcooncat> Danzl3: possibly giving it a sudo nopassword
[21:46] <Danzl3> I tried to allow www-data to run a command using sudo without a password, I've edited the sudo file and added: %www-data ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/script ... but it still asks for sudo password ?
[21:46] <StaRetji> JustinD, thought so...hm..do you think if I put symlink that points to a direction would help? My original install is in /usr/share/xbmc and new one (with .deb) is in /usr/local/share/xbmc
[21:46] <jrib> Danzl3: sounds like a really bad idea
[21:46] <mkanyicy> mcurran, no problem
[21:47] <Danzl3> yea I know
[21:47] <Danzl3> but it's nothing big
[21:47] <Danzl3> it's something local anyway
[21:47] <jimcooncat> Danzl3: did you edit it with visudo? If not, it may not have taken effect
[21:47] <Danzl3> ooh
[21:47] <markboston> anyone need help pm me
[21:47] <Danzl3> I edited with nano
[21:47] <MarkProffitt> Any ideas why I can't hear sound even though the volume is 100% ?
[21:47] <JustinD> @StaRetji: are you drying to do a dpkg -i xbmc.deb? and you want it to end up in /usr/local/share/xbmc ?
[21:48] <mkanyicy> Danzl3, that is not right
[21:48] <Danzl3> %www-data ALL=NOPASSWD: /bin/kill
[21:48] <Danzl3> that's what I have atm ^
[21:48] <StaRetji> JustinD, I want it to end up in /usr/share/xbmc
[21:48] <markboston> @MarkProffitt i am trying to help you in private chat
[21:48] <StaRetji> JustinD, and yes, I use dpkg -i xbmc.deb
[21:49] <Danzl3> mkanyicy, what's not right ?
[21:49] <mkanyicy> Danzl3, why do you want to just include 'kill' ?
[21:49] <Danzl3> because I wana kill a process that's run by another user
[21:49] <Danzl3> through php
[21:49] <Danzl3> and php uses www-data as user
[21:49] <Danzl3> which does have access to kill
[21:50] <mkanyicy> Danzl3, then make sudoers grant permissions to www-data as user not 'as group' as you do now
[21:50]  * jimcooncat thinks Danzl3 is doing a social experiment on security
[21:50] <Danzl3> hum
[21:50] <mkanyicy> Danzl3, remove the %
[21:50] <JustinD> @StaRetji you can install it, and do a dpkg-reconfigure <package> with the options that XBMC will take for a new destination?
[21:50] <mkanyicy> Danzl3, thats all
[21:51] <Danzl3> hum
[21:51] <Danzl3> still asking for pw
[21:51] <mha2908> Can somebody point me to an easy setup-guide for a VPN-server? 'cuz my router (a linksys WRT160N v2) apparently does not support GRE-protocol, and therefore not PPTP. OpenVPN seems very complicated to me, but is there something easy GUI-guide or something?
[21:51] <Danzl3> hum
[21:52] <Danzl3> maybe because this process is run by another user?
[21:52] <StaRetji> JustinD, the problem is, I end up with two installations, one in /usr/share(original and want to keep that way) and new one in /usr/local/share. The thing is, it is precompiled for ordinary ubuntu and I use xbmc live version
[21:52] <mkanyicy> Danzl3, are you doing all this in terminal or using php on a web browser?
[21:53] <Pearlan> i need advice on a legal issue. a company is going to sue me for a freeware i developed and that has a similiar name to one of their trademark. where can I find help about this issue?
[21:53] <jrib> Pearlan: lawyer
[21:53] <jrib> Pearlan: maybe EFF
[21:53] <StaRetji> JustinD, so I there are bunch of scripts that looks inside /usr/share and I'm running old version, off course, I would like to ran new one
[21:53] <Danzl3> well mkanyicy, I'm testing using terminal atm
[21:53] <JustinD> @StaRetji: are you trying to install them both at once?  if not, just move the current working one with mv to somewhere else, and dinstall with dpkg.
[21:53] <Pearlan> ok, thanks
[21:53] <Danzl3> if u can do it through terminal... u can do through a php script right ?
[21:54] <JustinD> almost.
[21:54] <JustinD> @Danzl3: almost.
[21:54] <Danzl3> php script through web browser that is
[21:54] <StaRetji> JustinD, dinstall?
[21:54] <lostin> Is there a way to say you want stable releases of programs with exception of a few (ie mplayer/pidgin etc...) for the auto updater?
[21:54] <JustinD> @StaRetji: typo. install.
[21:54] <StaRetji> JustinD, ok, thx for all the help so far, really appreciated ;)
[21:55] <JustinD> no problem! best of luck!

[21:56] <jrib> robert__: erm, what?  What are you trying to accomplish exactly?
[21:57] <theshow4life> I have a problem with my display driver. i just finished ubuntu 9.10 and wanted to use the effects when i click on the effects it downloaded the driver i needed and installed it then when i restarted all i get is a black screen. by the way i got a nvidia 8800 gts in SLI
[21:57] <Danzl3> humm ok jrib, that worked, but I had to get the pid from the user that's running
[21:57] <robert__> sudo cp resolov.conf /etc
[21:57] <Danzl3> I'm unable to get pid through www-data
[21:57] <jrib> Danzl3: why would you expect to?
[21:57] <Danzl3> because it only show the stuff www-data is running
[21:57] <robert__> but it wont run from script only manually
[21:58] <jrib> robert__: it will run fine in script, why do you want it in a script though?
[21:58] <jimcooncat> Danzl3: are you sure that php is running as www-data? I'm not up on such things, but I wonder if it's actually running as nobody

[22:00] <Typos_King> Terran333:   "A Practical Guide To Linux Commands, Editors, And Shell Programming (2005)"  you can find it in .chm format and one of the best IMO  "Advanced Bash Guide"  you can find it in zipped html :)
[22:00] <Danzl3> got it working
[22:00] <Danzl3> thx :D
[22:00] <Danzl3> guys :P
[22:00] <jcjm> hello
[22:00] <jrib> robert__: that's fine, now what are *you* doing that lets you conclude the script runs and doesn't replace resolv.conf
[22:00] <Terran333> thanks, typos_king
[22:01] <Typos_King> Terran333:   there's also one from O'Reilly "learning the bash 2nd edition", you can find that in .chm
[22:01] <Seventy8> How should I format an hdd if I'm using ubuntu as my server OS? (I'm a nub, I know) I'm going to have pretty much only windows computers accessing it... so do I format it in ext4 or xfs and samba or something lets windows access it or format it ntfs so windows has no trouble?
[22:01] <mkanyicy> !yay | Danzl3
[22:02] <jrib> Seventy8: ask #samba if they recommend anything for use with samba
[22:02] <_jscguy> what is the channel for the 10.04 beta?
[22:02] <jrib> !10.04 | _jscguy
[22:02] <Seventy8> k. thanks jrib
[22:02] <_jscguy> ty
[22:02] <robert__> but the file is blank by default and must be replaceed  to define dns for the vpn to work
[22:02] <mkanyicy> Seventy8, choose NTFS
[22:02] <jrib> robert__: you aren't answering my question
[22:02] <enkidu> is there a PLF repository for karmic?
[22:02] <jimcooncat> Danzl3: I gotta go home, but I'd sure like to know what the problem was
[22:02] <enkidu> or is anyone planning PLF repositories for future versions?
[22:03] <jrib> !medibuntu | enkidu
[22:03] <Guest89642> music on consol
[22:03] <robert__> ask ?? i didnt follow
[22:04] <jrib> robert__: that's fine, now what are *you* doing that lets you conclude the script runs and doesn't replace resolv.conf
[22:04] <robert__> so what would be the proper syntax
[22:04] <enkidu> thx jrib
[22:04] <jrib> robert__: that's fine, now what are *you* doing that lets you conclude the script runs and doesn't replace resolv.conf?  I forgot the question mark
[22:04] <janisozaur> a friend of mine ran into some trouble with his sound system. he managed to get it back into working order, but he is bugged by a changed notification system. currently it displays so: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1323345/zrzut_ekranu.png and he wishes to go back to dfefault notification in the upper right corner of the screen. what should he do?
[22:05] <superjoe> how might I disable the wifi button on my keyboard?
[22:05] <Guest89642> arc en ciel
[22:05] <superjoe> I hate accidentally killing my internet
[22:05] <jrib> robert__: do you understand what I am asking you?
[22:05] <robert__> prob not
[22:05] <robert__> lol
[22:06] <robert__> newbie<
[22:06] <faron> hello again everybody-I am at http://www.getgnash.org/packages/releases/debian/lenny/ & I am confused as to which one of these I should be selecting...amd64.deb,i386.deb ormipsel.deb ??
[22:06] <jrib> robert__: fine, create the resolv.conf as he says and modify the script so it uses an absolute path
[22:06] <jrib> faron: gnash is in ubuntu's repostiories
[22:06] <digitalfiz> superjoe, dont you have to hit 2 keys to make it toggle the wifi?
[22:06] <Seventy8> mkanyicy - outta curiosity (and I'm trying to learn) why ntfs? I mean, the only thing I really know about the whole thing is that samba translates linux file system to windows on the fly? does ntfs just make it... work better?
[22:06] <faron> 8.2 is but not 8.7
[22:07] <Typos_King> faron:    as in gnash the flash player?
[22:07] <jrib> faron: then you should be using the *ubuntu* repositories, not debian
[22:07] <faron> yes the mozilla plugin
[22:07] <c3l> how can I see all incoming connections? such as pings to me and so
[22:07] <Typos_King> faron:  that's' in the repositories, as jrib pointed out
[22:07] <jrib> faron: http://getgnash.org/packages/ (scroll to "for ubuntu")
[22:07] <soc> hi
[22:07] <superjoe> digitalfiz, no it's just one button that doesn't even have to be depressed
[22:07] <Typos_King> you can just apt-get install it
[22:07] <faron> thank you very much jrib
[22:08] <soc> is there software for ubuntu for converting boolean algebra to CNF/DNF?
[22:08] <Olson> guys, can anyone help me, sort this out. Im helping a friend. He has no audio from webpages or any applications like VLC or mplayer, however when we invoke mplayer in a terminal we can get it to play the audio. I really have no clue what to do
[22:08] <mkanyicy> Seventy8, if its only for windows computers then use NTFS, I'd choose not to 'overload' samba for nothing
[22:08] <Typos_King> soc:   the who?
[22:08] <Seventy8> ahh. Thanks mate :-)
[22:08] <digitalfiz> superjoe, just look for a keyboard key remapper you can probably remap it to doing nothing
[22:08] <c3l> how can I see all incoming connections? such as pings to me and so
[22:09] <faryshta> How can I format a USB-drive?
[22:09] <jrib> faryshta: gparted
[22:09] <Typos_King> Olson:   tell him to recheck his sound mixer sliders
[22:09] <soc> disjunctive/conjunctive normal form
[22:09] <faron> wow ! again-thanks very much jrib...I was already there & didn't even see that
[22:09] <faryshta> jrib thanks.
[22:09] <mkanyicy> Olson, does same thing happens with totem and rhythmbox?
[22:09] <Typos_King> Olson and yes, he is going to say, they're all maxed out and checked and such, nevertheless, give it another recheck
[22:09] <Olson> Typos_King, yeah we've been looking at all those extensivly.. im also SSH to his box and looking at alsamixer
[22:10] <Olson> mkanyicy, I'm not sure.. i'll get him to try those now
[22:10] <Typos_King> soc:    well... that breaks out the acronym but we still don't have a meaning to relate it to.... I'd say myself, dunno :}
[22:10] <faron> uh oh though...still confused I am looking for the mozilla plugin & I run Hardy Heron
[22:10] <janisozaur> a friend of mine ran into some trouble with his sound system. he managed to get it back into working order, but he is bugged by a changed notification system. currently it displays so: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1323345/zrzut_ekranu.png and he wishes to go back to dfefault notification in the upper right corner of the screen. what should he do?
[22:10] <mkanyicy> Olson, maybe change VLC preferences to use alsa instead of 'auto' or 'default'
[22:11] <nooga> hi
[22:11] <Olson> mkanyicy, oky we will check that now
[22:11] <Typos_King> faron:   checked the repositories yet?     apt-cache search gnash;
[22:11] <jrib> faron: they have packages at http://getgnash.org/packages/releases/ubuntu/hardy/ but really if you want recent software use a recent release
[22:11] <mkanyicy> Olson, I had the same problem with VLC specifically
[22:11] <nooga> php does not work in ~/public_html/ in lucid, i've did this -> http://marco.tondela.org/2010/03/your-public_html-with-php5-isnt-working-in-ubuntu-lucid/
[22:11] <nooga> but it does not help
[22:11] <Olson> mkanyicy, though, it doesn't explain the firefox issue
[22:11] <faron> hmmmmm again thank you
[22:11] <nooga> any ideas?
[22:11] <Typos_King> !lucid | nooga
[22:11] <nene> wiki
[22:12] <Olson> mkanyicy, and we tried mplayer as well.. it works in the terminal (we get sound) but running the app we dont get anything
[22:12] <mkanyicy> which app Olson? you mean gmplayer?
[22:13] <nene> yes
[22:13] <mkanyicy> Olson, tried totem and rhythmbox yet?
[22:13] <Olson> mkanyicy, I mean mplayer the.mp3
[22:13] <Typos_King> the.mp3?
[22:13] <Olson> mkanyicy, yes we have now tried both of those to no avail
[22:13] <Olson> Typos_King, yes.. in terminal to play mp3 via mplayer
[22:14] <faryshta> jrib, my system can't install gparted due to a missing dependency. Any other program?
[22:14] <Mitchell92> Hey all... I'm looking to buy an off-lease compaq evo desktop to use as a linux workstation and put ubuntu on... anyone have anything to say about it?
[22:14] <Olson> Typos_King, mkanyicy see, I can SSH to his machine and invoke mplayer to play for him via command line but using the GUI doesn't work. Also no sound in firefox, totem, rhythmbox etc
[22:14] <jrib> faryshta: you're going to have to explain since gparted is installable on a working ubuntu system
[22:14] <Typos_King> Olson I'd think is either a mixer setting or slider or the audio-out device used.... it has to be more likely the mixer, cuz audio-out devices are app specifics, it won't affect all apps like this case does
[22:15] <geoffmcc> i have an ubuntu server setup to use ICS. On second machine i would like counter strike server. When use command "iptables -A PREROUTING -t nat -i eth0 -p udp --dport 27015 -j DNAT --to 192.168.10.2:27015" my server shows up aong with 20 other instances. is my command wrong?
[22:15] <faryshta> jrib, Los siguientes paquetes tienen dependencias incumplidas:
[22:15] <faryshta>   gparted: Depende: libparted0 (>= 2.2-1) pero no va a instalarse
[22:15] <Typos_King> Olson:   as far as the terminal... dunno, for all we know the terminal is using the built-in speaker
[22:15] <faryshta> That is what I get.
[22:15] <Olson> Typos_King, yes Im tempted to think sliders as well but we've seriously been looking for a day or so now
[22:15] <faryshta> I am using the beta.
[22:16] <jrib> !lucid | faryshta
[22:16] <Typos_King> !es | faryshta
[22:17] <faryshta> So, how can I format a USB-drive?
[22:17] <Azelphur> !gparted | faryshta
[22:17] <jrib> faryshta: you are using lucid.  Ask in #ubuntu+1 for help installing gnash
[22:17] <jrib> faryshta: you are using lucid.  Ask in #ubuntu+1 for help installing gparted*
[22:17] <geoffmcc> Is this the right command for forwarding udp packets to a computer on my local network "iptables -A PREROUTING -t nat -i eth0 -p udp --dport 27015 -j DNAT --to 192.168.10.2:27015"

[22:23] <rosco_y> deanus: thanks, I'll look into that--I'm a noob
[22:23] <goddard> whats is a gpg public key id?
[22:23] <Brokie> mawst, Empathy
[22:23] <jrib> goddard: why?
[22:23] <mawst> Thanks Brokie
[22:24] <goddard> jrib why not?
[22:24] <jrib> goddard: because I'm pretty sure you are going to ask a different question once I tell you a gpg key is a way to encrypt information
[22:24] <sudobash> I am trying to install wifi drivers for bcm 4312 on a netbook there is no ethernet I downloaded bcmwl-kernel-source_5.10.91.9+bdcom-0ubuntu4_i386.deb and all the dependencies but when I installed it and restart it didn't do anything what do I need to do now?
[22:25] <cliff_> hello
[22:25] <Wolframn> !hi | cliff_
[22:25] <goddard> jrib i said "gpg key id"
[22:25] <jrib> goddard: it's an id for such a key.
[22:25] <goddard> jrib there is a fingerprint right? and then a "key id"
[22:25] <jrib> goddard: yes
[22:25] <cliff_> i have problem with mpi
[22:25] <Brokie> I am running ubuntu Karmic, I have wireless networking, I am trying to run qemu-system-arm with networking support, but when I enable the bridge, it kills my network, and I cannot reconnect, how to fix?
[22:25] <sudobash> how can I fix the wifi?
[22:26] <cliff_> i run my program :mpirun -np 5 test.exe
[22:26] <Losha> goddard: there are examples of key ids here -> http://nmlug.org/faqs/gen-gpg-key.html (see #3)
[22:26] <goddard> jrib how do I get the key id then because my fingerprint is saved in my generated file correct?
[22:26] <sudobash> I cant download drivers through hardware drivers app
[22:26] <cliff_> an the output is :alarm clock
[22:26] <anubis> I am having trouble mounting my swap partition, could anyone help me kindly ?
[22:26] <jrib> goddard: it saves everyone a lot of time to just start by asking your real question (like the one you asked now)
[22:26] <StaRetji> sudobash, you have dell mini netbook?
[22:27] <sudobash> hp
[22:27] <Uboss> Hello
[22:27] <pepee> anubis, CAREFULY run: sudo mkswap /dev/<partition>; sudo swapon /dev/<partition>
[22:27] <goddard> jrib i dont want to argue with you but not knowing everything about something is the reason why people ask questions and part of that is not even knowing how to ask the question but I appreciate any help you have to offer
[22:27] <Uboss> Any good website for Ubuntu 9.10 themes?
[22:27] <sudobash> with bcm4312 wifi
[22:27] <anubis> pepee,  how do i run something carefully ?:P
[22:27] <markboston> @uboss google is your friend
[22:27] <Losha> goddard: it's covered in the url I gave you above...
[22:28] <StaRetji> sudobash, I had the same problem with dell mini, broadcom drivers, check with lspci, but I think that you have to upgrade the kernel in order to work
[22:28] <geoffmcc> sudobash maybe im misunderstanding but have u tried bcm43xx-fwcutter
[22:28] <jrib> goddard: yes, but when someone asks "why" trying to get at what you really want, it's best to give a legitimate answer, not "why not?"
[22:28] <UnderSampled> Is there a way to run a program in a native terminal, but forward the X  output over ssh?
[22:28] <mcurran> Anyone here wanna talk about hacking?  PM me, I'm settin' up a zombie botnet with nc backdoors, and I'm looking for some bash script that'll execute ping -f <target ip> through all zombie ip's I got.
[22:28] <bastid_raZor> anubis: how did you create your swap partition and what errors are you getting?
[22:28] <Losha> anubis: you make *very* sure you have the correct partition name before you let it rip...
[22:28] <Uboss> markboston, I did it. Just asking if someone suggest me anything better.
[22:29] <anubis> Losha, ok thanks:P
[22:29] <Losha> mcurran: it's off-topic here, and you know that...
[22:29] <pepee> anubis, taking care of what you type, and how you do that
[22:29] <mcurran> that's why I said PM me
[22:29] <mcurran> sorry
[22:29] <anubis> bastid_raZor, well actually i just resized it .. so its in a different place has a different uuid i updated the conf file but it doesnt seem to be mounting..
[22:29] <goddard> jrib Well I guess we wont agree about this but thank you for your help I think I figured it out
[22:29] <jrib> goddard: anyway, you can get the key id from gpg.  For example, when I run « gpg --list-secret-keys » I get back "sec   1024D/6E33C97B 2005-12-18" as the first line.  My key's id is 6E33C97B
[22:29] <goddard> Losha thanks
[22:30] <bastid_raZor> anubis: you changed the UUID in /etc/fstab to match the new UUID?
[22:30] <goddard> ahh
[22:30] <pepee> Brokie, /j #qemu
[22:30] <Losha> the force is strong in jrib...
[22:30] <WebDawg> How do I disable the effects in gnome??
[22:31] <anubis> bastid_raZor,  yeah i did
[22:31] <anubis> pepee,  i just tried it apparently :swapon: /dev/sdb5: open failed: Permission denied
[22:31] <goddard> ~jrib++
[22:31] <bastid_raZor> anubis: sudo mount -a    ..do you get errors when running this? this command will mount anything in /etc/fstab that is not currently mounted.

[22:35] <Avenegra> hi folks
[22:35] <switchgirl> hi
[22:35] <sudobash> how do you set up bcm43xx-fwcutter offline? you have to grab the drivers and run the fwcutter right? but how?
[22:35] <pepee> anubis, chmod 700 /dev/sdb5 ?
[22:35] <Brokie> thanks pepee
[22:36] <pepee> np Brokie
[22:36] <Avenegra> if i open a gnome-terminal, seems .bashrc doesn't run
[22:36] <Brokie> although they are as responsive there as a dead moose....
[22:36] <pepee> Brokie, haha
[22:36] <Avenegra> why?
[22:37] <erUSUL> Avenegra: why do you say it does not run ?
[22:37] <Brokie> Avenegra, maybe, its tired?
[22:37] <Avenegra> yeah, poor .bashrc  :(
[22:37] <anubis> pepee, command chmod seemed to run successfully , i just tried mkswap and swapon again and again same error
[22:38] <Brokie> Avenegra, did you modify bashrc?
[22:38] <xfact> Anyone can tell me what is the jre plug-in file for web browsers? It would be a .so file (e.g. flash player= libflashplayer.so)
[22:38] <Avenegra> yes, i extended $PATH
[22:38] <pepee> anubis, IIRC dbus will change the permissions again...
[22:38] <Brokie> Avenegra, try chmod 0655 .bashrc
[22:38] <pepee> anubis, try running the three commands in one line
[22:38] <Avenegra> mmm
[22:38] <xfact> please help
[22:39] <Avenegra> it has already 0655
[22:39] <xfact> My jre plugin is not acx
[22:39] <Avenegra> ah no, was 644
[22:39] <xfact> my jre plugin is not activated
[22:39] <Brokie> :)
[22:39] <yoavk> Does anybody know if Ubuntu will automatically change the time to DST in Israel tonight?
[22:39] <erUSUL> xfact: how did you installed it ?
[22:39] <m0ar> yoavk: Yes, probably
[22:39] <toyman61> I want to edit DVD-videos created from my DVD-recorder (i.e. removing commercials) and then save it as DivX(AVI) or DVD-Video. Which program should I use ?
[22:39] <erUSUL> yoavk: it should
[22:39] <Brokie> yoavk, yes... unless you are in Kabul
[22:39] <anubis> pepee, does the order matter?
[22:40] <yoavk> Thanks all!
[22:40] <pepee> anubis, yep...
[22:40] <Brokie> yoavk, then it will scream to allah, and explode
[22:40] <toyman61> On Windows I've used Pinnacle Studio...
[22:40] <m0ar> Brokie: Family guy? ;D
[22:40] <Brokie> ya
[22:40] <tugb0at> hm
[22:40] <xfact> erUSUL: normally via software center, but for some browser settlements it's gone, so I just need to know the name of that file to bring it back
[22:40] <anubis> pepee, sudo chmod 700 /dev/sdb5; sudo mkswap /dev/sdb5; sudo swapon /dev/sdb5
[22:40] <anubis> /dev/sdb5: Device or resource busy
[22:40] <anubis> swapon: /dev/sdb5: swapon failed: Device or resource busy
[22:40] <Brokie> m0ar, how did you know?
[22:40] <Avenegra> Brokie: nope, 755 didn't make it either
[22:41] <m0ar> Brokie: Youtube ;D   "ALLAH AK'BAR" *blam
[22:41] <Brokie> pastebin your .bashrc, Avenegra
[22:41] <Losha> toyman61: try avidemux...
[22:41] <anubis> bastid_raZor, still there? :D
[22:41] <pepee> anubis, run: mount
[22:41] <mkanyicy> toyman61, same here, avidemux
[22:41] <xfact> I think no helps form here, I have to find it myself -_-
[22:41] <m0ar> anubis: pastebins are preferred.    paste.pocoo.org is wonderful
[22:41] <erUSUL> Avenegra: how did you modified path ? paste the relevan lines
[22:41] <toyman61> Losha: I have, but which file should I load ?
[22:42] <mkanyicy> xfact, swallow your pride
[22:42] <anubis> pepee, http://paste.pocoo.org/show/193979/
[22:42] <anubis> m0ar, thanks :)
[22:43] <Avenegra> well, it's a fresh .profile/.bashrc from Karmic, i only took the last lines from .profile (the ones that set the path) and added a scripts dir, the line is ' PATH="$HOME/bin:$HOME/scripts:$PATH" '
[22:43] <anubis> m0ar, thats an awesome pastebin
[22:43] <pepee> Brokie, this is what I have from an old experiment lol: sudo qemu-system-x86_64 -boot c -snapshot -m 256 -hda '/dev/sda' -net nic,vlan=0 -net tap,vlan=0,ifname= -redir tcp:1::1 -localtime -no-kqemu
[22:43] <xfact> jerk
[22:43] <Losha> toyman61: not sure i understand the question. If you have dvd-videos, the video is contained in all those .VOB files. Is that what you mean?
[22:43] <Avenegra> :O
[22:43] <Avenegra> o man
[22:43] <toyman61> Losha: I have tried to load the one of the VOB-files on the DVD, but get the error message "Could not open the file".
[22:43] <Avenegra> it's the chekc for +x ~/bin :(/(((((
[22:43] <m0ar> anubis: Indeed!
[22:44] <m0ar> anubis: pastebin.org is gay, bloated and meh
[22:44] <toyman61> Losha: I know, but I'm not able to load it into Avidemux.
[22:44] <erUSUL> Avenegra: so you changed profile not bashrc ....
[22:44] <Losha> toyman61: can you play the vob files using e.g. mplayer ?
[22:44] <orbarron> hello all downloaded 9.10 remix but I am missing tslib or evdev... anyone know how I can get these in dpgk form? I have not network access on target
[22:44] <m0ar> anubis: above
[22:44] <Brokie> m0ar, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XOX34udwf50 <--- tee hee
[22:44] <jkd4> could anyone pls help me with this? http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/CONKY-colors?content=92328
[22:44] <jkd4> i don't know what the heck I am supposed to do
[22:44] <anubis> m0ar, yeah . above what? ahhh its up there i had to scroll along
[22:45] <m0ar> Brokie: ROFL
[22:45] <anubis> pepee, out of ideas?
[22:45] <Losha> m0ar: I don't appreciate your pejorative use of the term "gay"...
[22:45] <toyman61> Losha: BRB
[22:45] <pepee> anubis, sudo lsof | grep sdb5
[22:45] <m0ar> Losha: Reason?
[22:46] <wolfie1> hello all x3
[22:46] <pepee> anubis, yep...
[22:46] <mkanyicy> toyman61, Losha , you should enable indexing of the vob file and the .idx file is stored on the same directory, so if that directory is read-only, then you are in trouble i guess
[22:46] <Losha> m0ar: reason? Because it's homophobic, why else?
[22:46] <m0ar> Losha: I'm bisexual.
[22:46] <bazhang> m0ar, keep it civil and on topic
[22:46] <cliff_> http://pastebin.com/2PpiKFKf   <---mpi problem line 9

[22:46] <m0ar> Losha: Why do you get offended when I don't?
[22:46] <Losha> m0ar: then you should know better...
[22:46] <wolfie1> I have gnome and xfce4, in this last one, when I move my icons on the desktop, the move way too mechanical, I want them to move more smooth, how do I do that?? 0_o
[22:47] <bazhang> m0ar, take chat elsewhere please
[22:47] <jkd4> ot! | m0ar
[22:47] <raven> how to make ISO images of usb drives or cds?
[22:47] <jkd4> !ot | m0ar
[22:47] <m0ar> jkd4: Very nessecairy, I really needed that
[22:47] <mkanyicy> raven, dd
[22:47] <wolfie1> help?
[22:47] <jkd4> could anyone pls help me with this? http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/CONKY-colors?content=92328
[22:47] <jkd4> i don't know what the heck I am supposed to do
[22:48] <pepee> raven, unetbootin
[22:48] <Typos_King> raven:    dd if=/dev/sdc1 of=mycdhere.iso
[22:48] <raven> oh so simple..... tnx ;)
[22:48] <anubis> pepee,  you advise pasteing on a forum ?
[22:48] <pepee> raven, ahh, sorry...
[22:48] <toyman61> mkanyicy: I will try another DVD-video. There might be some trouble with the one I tried.
[22:48] <Typos_King> raven:    just make sure of the device name, in that case I used sdc1, you can list them all with -> sudo fdisk -l;
[22:48] <wolfie1> when I move my icons, they follow a big square, I want to move them more freely, like in gnome
[22:49] <wolfie1> (im on xfce4 right now)
[22:49] <anubis> pepee,  or any clues as to where i might look to find a solution ?
[22:49] <toyman61> mkanyicy: But which file should I choose ? There are 7 or 8 VOB-files in the TS_VIDEO directory..
[22:50] <mkanyicy> toyman61, do you want to rip a dvd?
[22:50] <pepee> anubis, there are many folks that can help you in this channel
[22:50] <mkanyicy> toyman61, and convert it to DivX?
[22:50] <pepee> anubis, try asking again...
[22:50] <sudobash> how can I download the Broadcom STA wireless driver suggest in Hardware Drivers app I'm on netbook with no wifi no ethernet
[22:50] <digitalfiz> wow was someone really nitpicking the fact that someone used the term gay hah amazing
[22:50] <pepee> sorry, I can't help you
[22:50] <anubis> pepee,  ok
[22:51] <sudobash> how can I download the Broadcom STA wireless driver suggest in Hardware Drivers app I'm on netbook with no wifi no ethernet
[22:51] <toyman61> mkanyicy: Basically, yes..
[22:51] <pepee> anubis, try #linux
[22:51] <anubis> Hey, guys would someone more advanced than pepee, kindly help me with a swap mounting problem
[22:51] <mkanyicy> toyman61, please use dvdrip instead of avidemux because even though you can append multiple VOB's in avidemux your audio is prone to be out of sync with the video
[22:52] <anubis> pepee, thanks for your efforts anyway man , i'm joining #linux now
[22:52] <toyman61> mkanyicy: But dvdrip is only to rip the DVD ?
[22:52] <mkanyicy> toyman61, i guess so
[22:52] <c3l> how can I see all incoming connections? such as pings to me and so
[22:52] <mkanyicy> toyman61, if you already have a vob from somewhere, then you have to use avidemux
[22:52] <metbsd> i want to run linux from a usb stick of 2g, how to do it?
[22:52] <pepee> anubis, tell them what you did and what you see
[22:52] <Typos_King> sudobash:    still looking for the fwcutter stuff?
[22:52] <toyman61> mkanyicy: But when I have ripped the whole thing to my harddisk - how do I use avidemux to load them if my audio is prone to be out of sync ?
[22:52] <wolfie1> please, someone help, Im on xfce4 and I want to be able to move the icons on my desktop more freely and smooth
[22:53] <mkanyicy> toyman61, but it would be a mistake in choosing to use avidemux to rip a dvd
[22:53] <deanus> sudobash, bcmwl-kernel-source and bcmwl-modaliases.
[22:53] <anubis> pepee, sure i will try
[22:53] <erUSUL> !firewall | c3l
[22:53] <sudobash> I already installed bcm43xx-fwcutter_20060108
[22:53] <c3l> erUSUL, ty
[22:53] <Typos_King> sudobash:    sooo, you want to... run it?
[22:53] <toyman61> mkanyicy: I will try to rip it using dvdrip..
[22:53] <mkanyicy> toyman61, dvdrip rips everything to harddisk AND then transcode it to your DivX
[22:54] <sudobash> I pulled my .sys from the windows partition and it said the MD5 wasn't found
[22:54] <Brokie> m0ar, Bush is dumber than Peter...
[22:54] <Brokie> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cpP7b2lUxVE
[22:54] <toyman61> mkanyicy: But I need to do some editing before transcoding it to DivX.. :-(
[22:54] <mkanyicy> toyman61, it just does not like to convert something it never ripped by itself
[22:54] <toyman61> mkanyicy: Such as removing commercials..
[22:54] <bazhang> Brokie, stop pasting youtube video here
[22:54] <Brokie> ok
[22:54] <pepee> heh
[22:54] <Losha> toyman61: in general, the vobs are played in order and are basically the entire video, broken into chunks that are less than 2G each. dvdrip will copy/decrypt vobs and then convert them to avis, but it doesn't support editing. You are best off editing the vobs and then converting, in my opinion...
[22:54] <Brokie> Shall I paste Vimeo clips instead?
[22:54] <bazhang> Brokie, no
[22:54] <Brokie> Justclips?
[22:55] <mkanyicy> toyman61, a dvd with commercials?
[22:55] <bazhang> Brokie, take chat to #ubuntu-offtopic please
[22:55] <sudobash> is there a way to download the STA wireless driver as a deb the one recommened in the Hardware Drivers APP?
[22:55] <Brokie> aww man, you were off topic too!
[22:55] <Brokie> LOL
[22:55] <mkanyicy> toyman61, then use avidemux, you can cut and merge videos
[22:55] <toyman61> mkanyicy: I can record TV-shows using my DVD-Recorder to local harddisk. Then I copy it from the harddisk to DVD, and the result is a DVD-VIDEO. This can contain commercials..
[22:56] <deanus> sudobash,  yes.
[22:56] <sudobash> what should I do?
[22:56] <sudobash> okay if I can download the BCM STA WIFI driver how?
[22:56] <mkanyicy> toyman61, remember that you may lose some quality by doing so many conversions
[22:56] <Typos_King> toyman61:    that said, ripping the vob from the dvd to view the dvd using the .ifo files, is about 10times quicker, than encoding it, I've encoded a 3hr ripped dvd on a core2-duo 3gbs ram desktop, it took 1hr 35mins about, which just ripping took about 15mins
[22:56] <sudobash> I want to manually download the STA driver and put it on flashdrive
[22:57] <deanus> sudobash, http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/bcmwl-kernel-source     and http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/bcmwl-modaliases
[22:57] <xiadz> hi there
[22:57] <arielCo> Hello everyone. I'll shoot right away: today I found that my MMC does not automount, and apparently the partition table changed somehow. The first and only partition is ext2 and the partition table lists it as FAT32. Riddle me that!
[22:57] <sudobash> thank you deanus I think you tried to tell me that earlier but I didn't understand
[22:57] <deanus> sudobash,  those are for the STA (what I`m using.. well I`m using newer versions)
[22:57] <pepee> bye
[22:57] <pepee> have a nice day :)
[22:57] <toyman61> mkanyicy: OK. I will try to rip the DVD, and then edit and encode it.
[22:57] <Typos_King> sudobash:   may I ask what are you after?   just  making your broadcomm card work?
[22:57] <deanus> sudobash, I`m using the lucid ones...
[22:57] <Losha> toyman61: avidemux is still the first choice for what you want. Why don't we debug the reason you don't see able to read VOB files?
[22:58] <sudobash> how should I do this though?
[22:58] <deanus> sudobash, do what exactly.
[22:58] <sudobash> just install deb and restart?
[22:58] <sudobash> use those files with the fwcutter or what?
[22:58] <toyman61> Losha: The reason might be that avidemux wants to index the files. And tries to put the .idx-file on the DVD which is read-only.. :-)
[22:58] <deanus> sudobash, oh, just sudo dpkg -i bcm*.deb and restart
[22:59] <Losha> toyman61: could be. If you wait a minute, I'll try it on a disk of my own...
[22:59] <toyman61> Typos_King: I will try to rip it to harddisk before I do any further work on it.. :-)
[22:59] <toyman61> Losha: I'll wait
[22:59] <deanus> sudobash, the fwcutter is the free open driver.. STA is broadcoms, and much better IMO
[23:00] <mkanyicy> toyman61, you can copy 1 VOB file to /tmp folder and try using avidemux on it
[23:00] <Olson> Typos_King, sorted it .. had to remote desktop in and change some options for Mr. "ive tried everything"  thanks for your thoughts
[23:00] <Typos_King> toyman61:  it does take a long while to encode you know.... I mean... for a movie you'll watch...what?    5 times only?  not sure it may be worth the hassle just for viewing it
[23:00] <toyman61> mkanyicy: Losha is trying it out now..
[23:00] <Typos_King> well, depends on the movie length of course too, but still
[23:01] <Typos_King> Olson:  hehheeh
[23:01] <toyman61> Typos_King: I may not be the only one who wants to see the movie - or the TV-show..
[23:01] <Typos_King> ok
[23:01] <madjoe> Does Karmic takes care about time sync by default?
[23:02] <toyman61> Typos_King: Ripping it first seems to be a good idea..
[23:02] <Typos_King> madjoe:    you mean, DST?
[23:02] <faryshta> Before I screw up... how do I use gparted?
[23:02] <madjoe> Typos_King: DST and time sync as well.
[23:02] <madjoe> Typos_King: is there a default time server in Ubuntu?
[23:03] <Typos_King> I guess I dunno what time sync is.... it keeps the proper time :)
[23:03] <gogeta1> madjoe: yep just gotta turn it on
[23:03] <Typos_King> a time server.... no that I know of
[23:03] <progre55> hi guys! I remember there was a program that records your monitor.. what was it called? )
[23:03] <madjoe> gogeta1: how can I do that?
[23:04] <gogeta1> madjoe: in your time setting check sync to internet
[23:04] <Losha> toyman61: avidemux reads my burned dvds fine. When I open VTS_01_0.VOB it even notices that it's part of a series and offers to concatenate and index the other vobs all at the same time. It takes a while to do this though. I think you have some kind of permissions problem. Try mkanyicy's suggestion. I'd also like to know if mplayer can read the vobs...
[23:04] <faron> okay everybody...let me ask this...when I see amd64.deb,i386.deb or mipsel.deb...which one of those packages should I use for my system ?
[23:04] <izmanromli> anyone knows why i keep getting "hash sum mismatch" when installing mysql-client-5.1 on intrepid??
[23:04] <madjoe> gogeta1: time settings? I would have NEVER guessed that.. lol
[23:04] <gogeta1> lol
[23:04] <sudobash> can I modprobe it? I restarted and it didn't do anything?
[23:04] <gogeta1> madjoe:  right click clock prefs it should be there
[23:04] <toyman61> Losha: Yes, it might be a permission problem. I'll try to rip it and then see if I'm able to use avidemux (or some other program).
[23:05] <jrib> faron: what does « uname -m » return?
[23:05] <Typos_King> progre55:   http://elantux.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/recordmydesktopscreenshot.jpg
[23:05] <snovbx> progre55: you mean a program to record the desktop? I think it was gtk-recordmydesktop
[23:05] <faron> one moment
[23:05] <Losha> toyman61: ok, though I think it might shed some light on it to know if mplayer can play the vob...
[23:05] <madjoe> gogeta1: found it.. thanks!
[23:05] <progre55> Typos_King, snovbx: thanks guys, appreciate
[23:05] <toyman61> Is mplayer a part of standard Ubuntu 9.10 ?
[23:06] <faron> jrib....i686
[23:06] <mkanyicy> toyman61, no
[23:06] <faron> Iv'e been confused about this for so long
[23:06] <jrib> faron: then you want the _i386.deb
[23:06] <Typos_King> toyman61   no
[23:06] <mkanyicy> Losha, mplayer plays vob file with no problem
[23:06]  * Typos_King prefers xine-ui
[23:06] <jrib> faron: (for ubuntu of course)
[23:06] <faron> thank you so much
[23:06] <toyman61> mkanyicy, Typos_King : OK. Then I must install it first. BRB
[23:07] <sudobash> any other suggestions?
[23:07] <Losha> toyman61: it's just for testing. If you already have vlc, or xine, or totem, they would be fine. I just want to know if *anything* can read the vobs...
[23:07] <faron> how about [Xubuntu] :-D same thing right ?
[23:07] <jrib> faron: yep :)
[23:07] <faron> alright ! hey thanks again jrib
[23:07] <maco> progre55: recordmydesktop or istanbul
[23:07] <Typos_King> toyman61 ... I use mplayer for only 1 thing, saving mms:// streams :P~, other than that, I prefer xine-ui
[23:08] <faron> well wish me luck:-D
[23:08] <sudobash> it says it needs wl.ko for module bcmwl in the DKMS tree
[23:08] <gogeta1> Typos_King: vlc can do mms
[23:08] <gogeta1> Typos_King: mplayer has the best firefox intergration
[23:08] <progre55> maco: istanbul? huh =) but which one would you suggest?
[23:08] <madjoe> maco: I've heard RecordMyDesktop is a pretty good tool.
[23:08] <Typos_King> gogeta1:    so does xine-ui.... but won't save it, with mplayer you can do a -dumpstream to a file and save the actual videofile
[23:08] <popey> i would recommend recordmydesktop on the command line
[23:08] <popey> rather than istanbul
[23:09] <Losha> Each to their own. If mplayer had dvd menu support, I'd never use anything else...
[23:09] <izmanromli> gogeta1: that's true .... with vlc, i can't even watch embedded .mov in a website
[23:09] <gogeta1> Typos_King: w vlc you just check the save stream box
[23:09] <snovbx> and recordmydesktop has a gui too, never heard about istanbul though...
[23:09] <madjoe> neither do I
[23:09] <popey> recordmydesktop is much more controllable from the command line
[23:09] <faron> darn gdebi says dependency not satisfiable !
[23:09] <popey> istanbul has barely been touched for a long time
[23:09] <madjoe> I've heard that Istanbul is in Turkey tho.. not in my Ubuntu.. lol
[23:09] <sudobash> anyone please?
[23:09] <toyman61> Losha: The standard movie player is able to play the VOB-files... mplayer gives me an error.. (I might have got the installation wrong or something)
[23:09] <Typos_King> sudobash:    gimme a few secs, I put a paste
[23:10] <mkanyicy> Losha, totem plays vob files, mplayer, vlc ... everything ... as long as you have codecs in place
[23:10] <snovbx> madjoe: lol
[23:10] <faron> anything I can do about that jrib ?
[23:10] <jrib> faron: what dependency?
[23:10] <toyman61> Losha: I'm using a localized version of Ubuntu. "Movie player" might be an incorrect translation.. :-)
[23:10] <gogeta1> izmanromli: yea if you wanna do mov and streaming divx online mplayer works alot better
[23:10] <Losha> mkanyicy: I believe you, I just don't like the interface...
[23:10] <faron> hmmmm ?? let me see if I can find out
[23:10] <xfact> Now please anyone can tell me where is google chrome located? (Directory)
[23:10] <maco> progre55: honestly? they've been rather crap in my experience. one of them crashed when i tried to save the files, and the other produced corrupt oggs.
[23:10] <arielCo> (repost) Hello everyone. I'll shoot right away: today I found that my MMC does not automount, and apparently the partition table changed somehow. The first and only partition is ext2 and the partition table lists it as FAT32. Riddle me that!
[23:11] <Losha> toyman61: well, time to try mkanyicy's idea of copying a vob and then see if avidemux can open the copy...
[23:11] <mkanyicy> Losha, what interface?
[23:11] <faron> hmmmmmmm.nope jrib it doesn't say

[23:11] <jrib> faron: it should
[23:11] <Slart> xfact: the google chrome binary is probably located in /bin other files can be located in other places
[23:11] <toyman61> Losha: I'll try. BRB
[23:11] <progre55> maco: lol )) well, thanks for the feedback.. I'll try to install recordmydesktop for now..
[23:11] <jrib> Pearlan: ask a lawyer, this channel is for ubuntu support
[23:11] <shane_> sup all?
[23:12] <faron> I've got "description","details" & included files"
[23:12] <Slart> xfact: linux doesn't really do things the say way windows does them.. installed applications has files in many places
[23:12] <snovbx> progre55: well istanbul does exist, but latest news from it dates from 2007...
[23:12] <IdleOne> Pearlan: i'm with jrib on that
[23:12] <deanus> sudobash, sorry didnt see you..
[23:12] <faron> but it doesn't say what the issue is
[23:12] <mkanyicy> madjoe, what about ubuntu greeks?
[23:12] <shane_> can anyone help me get the front usb ports on my tower working??
[23:12] <jrib> faron: should be next to "dependencies not satisfiable"
[23:12] <deanus> sudobash, yeah there is something you need to do.. hangon...
[23:12] <xfact> Now please anyone can tell me where is google chrome located? (Directory)
[23:12] <izmanromli> xfact: or find it in /opt for a google-chrome binary
[23:12] <Pearlan> jrib: sorry about that, this channel is the only one that pops up as I open xchat
[23:12] <Losha> mkanyicy: you know, that dumb little screen with the tabs on top. I have mplayer all setup to use various keys to navigate. It's just a personal choice thing...

[23:12] <aconbere> hey, I'm trying to build a bootable usb device /from/ a mac to be used on a regular every day laptop. But my future host laptop doesn't recognize the usb as having a valid os onit to boot from. (following the directions on the bootable usb wiki page)
[23:12] <deanus> sudobash, add wl to the end of /etc/modules
[23:13] <izmanromli> xfact: mine is /opt
[23:13] <aconbere> I'm wondering if those directions are to boot off of a mac
[23:13] <Typos_King> sudobash:   http://pastebin.ca/1852259   <---
[23:13] <mkanyicy> madjoe, I thought that would 'puzzle' you
[23:13] <faron> weird...it just says..."error:dependency not satisfiable":gnash
[23:13] <progre55> snovbx: I see =) well thanks, I've already got recordmyvideo.. and this is the one I used to have actually, so I've got some experience with it =)
[23:13] <aconbere> since they involve converting the iso to a dmg
[23:13] <madjoe> mkanyicy: ;)
[23:13] <faron> oops didn't mean to do that::-D
[23:13] <Slart> xfact: since you seem to be ignoring me I'll just leave you with one more hint.. run    which chromium-browser   in a terminal to get the location
[23:14] <faron> weird
[23:14] <toyman61> Losha: I copied a VOB-file to my videoclips directory and tried to open it using avidemux. Message: "This looks like mpeg. Want to index it?". Answering yes and then got the message "File could not open"
[23:14] <madjoe> mkanyicy: I'm on my test drive of Ubuntu Karmic, for the first time, so I'd like to see a good light-weight game, at the end of my Linux journey
[23:14] <jkd4> how do you run a .pl script anyone?
[23:14] <mkanyicy> Losha, can you go back on mplayer?
[23:14] <sudobash> perl script.pl
[23:14] <Slart> jdobrien: ./yourscript.pl   should work.... or     perl yourscript.pl
[23:14] <jrib> jkd4: first, read it and make sure you either understand it or trust the author to not blow up your computer, then perl file.pl
[23:14] <Typos_King> sudobash:   got the paste?
[23:14] <mkanyicy> Losha, I mean after playing next file can you go to the previous file?
[23:14] <Slart> sorry jdobrien, wrong nick
[23:15] <maco> Pearlan: we're not lawyers
[23:15] <Slart> jdk: ./yourscript.pl   should work.... or     perl yourscript.pl
[23:15] <sudobash> yeah thats for the open driver im gonna try the STA then that
[23:15] <Typos_King> ok
[23:15] <izmanromli> xfact: are you using google-chrome or chromium? Slart has given you a nice hint
[23:15] <Slart> bah.. jkd4 , look above.. my fingers are fighting me today =)
[23:15] <xfact> Slart, excuse me, have you sent any answer, ohh sorry then I was disconnected for short time, I am not ignoring anyone, everyone is most welcome for help, and thank you I have got the needed answer
[23:15] <sudobash> so wait shouldn't I be able to modprobe wl from terminal>?
[23:15] <shane_> can anyone help me get the front usb ports on my tower working??
[23:15] <faron> jrib I wonder if I maybe reinstalled the older version & then tried to install the new on top ?
[23:15] <jrib> faron: I don't know what your error is
[23:16] <deanus> sudobash, you dont need to.. just add it to modules.. it will autoload on boot
[23:16] <mkanyicy> madjoe, go to ubuntu software center under 'games' and read the descriptions and see if you can get something
[23:16] <snovbx> xfact: dunno about google chrome, but usually system wide-config files goes in /etc, user config files goes hidden in your home folder (. prefix), /usr/bin goes binaries, /usr/share goes shared files,/usr/lib goes libraries, and finally /opt goes a few packages, could be there.
[23:16] <Slart> xfact: no worries.. glad you found the help you needed
[23:16] <deanus> sudobash, sure, you can modprobe it.......
[23:16] <Typos_King> sudobash:    if it's there, should, check if it's there, sudo lsmod
[23:16] <sudobash> deanus it says not found
[23:16] <Losha> mkanyicy: actually, I don't know. I usually play one video at a time. I can see that maybe for short videos you'd want a playlist...
[23:16] <faron> me neither...it won't tell me
[23:16] <maco> progre55: i think istanbul was the crashy one and with the right combination of settings it could run without crashing, but i forget the magic settings combination
[23:16] <deanus> sudobash, did you install both packages?
[23:17] <madjoe> mkanyicy: oh I can get tons of generic info like that... I wanted some human touch like a recommendation :)
[23:17] <deanus> sudobash, add wl to /etc/modules then and reboot.. it works for me..
[23:17] <jrib> faron: are you only installing one .deb, because I seem to recall several .debs on gnash's site?  Why aren't you just using the repository again?
[23:17] <xfact> izmanromli, I am using Google chrome and thanks it's in opt, but where to paste 'libjavaplugin_oji.so' there are no 'plugins' folder
[23:17] <mkanyicy> Losha, All I know is that when you press ENTER you go to the next video
[23:17] <faron> repo does not have the vresion I want to try
[23:17] <snovbx> xfact: try the mozilla folder, or create one. webkit gets flash from mozilla plugins folder
[23:18] <Typos_King> xfact:     I'd check under /usr/lib/chrome
[23:18] <xfact> snovbx, Thanks I am trying
[23:18] <mkanyicy> madjoe, actually (what we dont want to tell you is that) it is a puzzling game to look through those 'tons'
[23:18] <sudobash> yeah both the kernel source one said error could not locate wl.ko for module bcmwl in DKMS tree you must run a dkms build for kernel 2.6.31-14-generic (i686) first.... Done...
[23:18] <StaRetji> Is it possible to configure KMS for Intel gpu with Jauny using 2.6.28-11 kernel?
[23:18] <madjoe> mkanyicy: hahaha! :) good1
[23:18] <progre55> maco: lol, nvm, I dont need it =)  thanks though
[23:18] <madjoe> mkanyicy: I started liking Ubuntu geeks :)
[23:19] <iadrian> Hello! does anyone have Ubuntu on HP Pavilion laptop?
[23:19] <Losha> toyman61: that's odd. I'm starting to wonder if there's something strange about your video format. It seems unlikely. Can you run mplayer -v on the file and pastebin the output to http://ubuntu.pastebin.com ?
[23:19] <toyman61> Losha: Error message: "Could not open the file". I checked the permissions and it was rw on all groups (including the user I'm logged in as).
[23:19] <sudobash> yeah both the kernel source one said error could not locate wl.ko for module bcmwl in DKMS tree you must run a dkms build for kernel 2.6.31-14-generic (i686) first.... Done...
[23:19] <mkanyicy> iadrian, whats happening with it?
[23:19] <jrib> !who | faron
[23:19] <deanus> sudobash, I dont remember doing anything other than installin debs and adding to /etc/modules.  hm
[23:19] <jrib> faron: the first thing I said to you is important too
[23:19] <xfact> Typos_King, There no such folder(s) named 'chrome'
[23:19] <madjoe> iadrian: no, but I have a WinXP on my Acer laptop.. how can I help you? :)
[23:20] <Typos_King> xfact:   is chrome running right now?
[23:20] <faron> sorry jrib'
[23:20] <toyman61> Losha, : I have never used pastebin before.. (Yes, I know I'm a newbie on this..). But I have worked with computers for years..
[23:20] <sudobash> what so i just need wl.ko right and put it somewhere then reinstall the deb?
[23:20] <xfact> Typos_King, nope
[23:20] <snovbx> xfact: if you installed it under /opt, it usually wont install anything over /usr
[23:20] <deanus> sudobash, you need to run dkms to build the module..
[23:20] <Losha> toyman61: pastebin is easy. First time's the hardest. Just open the page, paste in the text, hit submit, then tell us the url it gave you
[23:20] <faron> use tab ? I'm sorry,what's that do ?
[23:20] <deanus> sudobash, I cant tell you the command exactly to do that...
[23:20] <faron> tab jrib ?
[23:20] <Typos_King> xfact:     can you run it? :)
[23:20] <xfact> snovbx, Yup, I think thats right
[23:21] <jrib> faron: you can type the beginning of my nick and hit tab to save some time typing: jr<TAB>
[23:21] <Typos_King> xfact:     once running do a -> sudo lsof -c chrome | grep -i plugin;
[23:21] <Losha> madjoe: my favourite game is trying to figure out how to solve #ubuntu user's problems...
[23:21] <faron> ahhhh now that's cool jrib
[23:21] <mkanyicy> toyman61, still have the video problem?
[23:21] <snovbx> xfact: i'm installing it to check it out
[23:21] <Typos_King> xfact:    that will show what 'of' open files is using and where the folders are
[23:21] <xfact> Typos_King, Yup I can run it, but without any java plug-in where all other browser has java enabled :(
[23:21] <faron> dats a good ting to no
[23:21] <Typos_King> xfact:     once running do a -> sudo lsof -c chrome | grep -i plugin;
[23:22] <ugliefrog> how do i reset the gnome panel from the terminal
[23:22]  * xfact is n00b 
[23:22] <mkanyicy> Losha, that is not puzzling enough for madjoe
[23:23] <Typos_King> xfact:   another think you may want to try inside chrome is either -> about:plugins    and about:config
[23:23] <toyman61> mkanyicy: Losha is helping me right now.. :-)
[23:23] <toyman61> Losha: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/4VecZLYU
[23:23] <mkanyicy> toyman61, ok, great
[23:23] <snovbx> xfact: install the plugins from the repository, they work
[23:23] <deanus> sudobash, I dont think I had to do that..  installing the debs I thought would make the module...
[23:23] <Losha> mkanyicy: yes, it's wierd, toyman61 says mplayer and avidemux won't open a copy of his vob but his default movie player will...?
[23:23] <snovbx> xfact: tried it now, it runs every plugin that firefox supports
[23:23] <toyman61> mkanyicy: Look at http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/4VecZLYU
[23:23] <aconbere> SOOooooo any help building a bootable usb drive if the instructions here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick aren't working?
[23:23] <xfact> Typos_King, Yup, there I can clearly see that java plugin is not listed
[23:24] <Typos_King> xfact:   any directories for the say, flash player?
[23:24] <toyman61> Losha, mkanyicy : I might have some wrong settings somewhere..
[23:24] <Losha> toyman61: mkanyicy: any number can play 'solve the ubuntu bug'...
[23:24] <xfact> snovbx, yup, I have done and all the browsers running it except chrome
[23:24] <Typos_King> xfact: or under about:config it'd show all configuration info
[23:25] <snovbx> xfact: that's weird, have you installed it throught the .deb package from google?
[23:25] <xfact> snovbx, yup, that was easy
[23:26] <snovbx> xfact: try this page: it shows all plugins currently running. tried it, shows the same as webkit epiphany and firefox: http://www-trunk.stage.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/
[23:26] <Typos_King> aconbere:    a bootable usb drive for 9.1?
[23:26] <xfact> Typos_King, Maybe it's weird but the about:config showing nothing (a blank white page)
[23:26] <xfact> snovbx, well, ok
[23:26]  * xfact is gonna think about it deeply 
[23:27] <Typos_King> xfact:     -> sudo lsof -c chrome | grep -i plugin;     what about that one?  does it show a 'plugin' folder of kinds?
[23:27] <aconbere> Typos_King: I'm /trying/ to build one for 10.04 beta
[23:27] <Losha> toyman61: mkanyicy: hmm. I wonder if it's missing codecs. Do you have medibuntu installed?
[23:27] <toyman61> Losha, : No, I don't think so..
[23:28] <toyman61> BRB
[23:28] <Typos_King> aconbere:   in 9.1 and I think 9.0   they included such option right from the live-cd boot, for making a 'usb startup disk'
[23:28] <Losha> toyman61: mkanyicy: well, it's worth installing them, since whatever *is* wrong seems to be affecting avidemux as well.
[23:28] <sudobash> ok I found this and it seems like my exact error but when I do: sudo dkms build -m bcmwl -v 5.10.91.9+bdcom it returns: applying patch0001-MODULE_LICENSE.patch.../usr/sbin/dkms: line 35: patch: command not found then it says that it failed
[23:28] <Typos_King> aconbere:    well, it's no in the menus but once you're loggedin the desktop in the live-cd, it has such in 9.x
[23:28] <snovbx> xfact: well? did the tests run fine?
[23:29] <Losha> toyman61: me too, need to eat something...
[23:29] <xfact> I think I have just got the solution
[23:29] <sudobash> ok I found this and it seems like my exact problem   I do: sudo dkms build -m bcmwl -v 5.10.91.9+bdcom it returns: applying patch0001-MODULE_LICENSE.patch.../usr/sbin/dkms: line 35: patch: command not found then it says that it failed

[23:30] <xfact> Typos_King, no, not yet unless 10.50
[23:30] <Losha> toyman61: understood. Best of luck...
[23:30] <mkanyicy> toyman61, try Losha's suggestion of installing codecs, I think (totem and rhythmbox) use gstreamer's good/bad/ugly codecs while i cannot confirm that for avidemux and the rest
[23:30] <xfact> Thanks Typos_King that was a good help
[23:30] <Losha> leagris: ?
[23:30] <anubis> blakkheim, bazhang  do those look like on the picture ? or is that just a theme ? are they pinned to the desktop or do i need to set that up ?

[23:31] <mkanyicy> toyman61, Losha install w32codecs

[23:33] <anubis> bazhang, so can't really search on google if i dont know what something is called haha
[23:33] <dabukalam> I think it has something to do with the fact that there is no directory with the name /var/run/mysql
[23:33] <deanus> sudo, I never had to do anything other than install the debs, add wl to modules and reboot.. sorry I`m no help..
[23:34] <xfact> The command I forgot, starts with probably gksudo

[23:35] <Losha> DarkStar11: offhand, no. Did you install any firewall apps? Otherwise, I'd suspect the samba configuration...

[23:38] <pokoko222> yes
[23:38] <izmanromli> type this which java
[23:38] <izmanromli> pokoko222:  'which java'
[23:38] <pokoko222> got it
[23:38] <deanus> sudobash, I`d use the newer bcm from lucid repos.. I am.
[23:39] <xfact> snovbx, thank you for info
[23:39]  * xfact something wrong :( 
[23:39] <sudobash> im not worried about it I have to take it to the person in 20 minutes lol
[23:39] <Typos_King> haavaros:  to restore Grub to /dev/sda?
[23:39] <Losha> DarkStar11: sorry, dunno. Does 'sudo iptables -L' show any entries?
[23:40] <Seventy8> Bah, I suck at linux..... how do I get an ntfs drive that I don't have to mount? Like... idk. I'm using remote deluge to torrent and it can't download to /media/ and I was thinking there has to be a better way to do this?
[23:40] <haavaros> Typos_King: yes
[23:40] <haavaros> Typos_King: according to palimpsest thats where the mbr is
[23:40] <deanus> lol ok
[23:41] <Typos_King> haavaros:    from the live-usb -> http://pastebin.ca/1849832   skip the winxp part, and the #comment :), just do the rest
[23:41] <Typos_King> haavaros: unless, you do have a win32 partition you want int he menu then, don't skip it :)
[23:41] <deanus> !ntfs
[23:42] <Losha> DarkStar11: ok, it's not your firewall. Sorry, I'm out of ideas then....
[23:42] <histo> !botabuse > deanus
[23:42] <izmanromli> Seventy8: try to save it elsewhere since internal ntfs partition needs a root privileges
[23:42] <haavaros> Typos_King: Thx ... do I enter one by one command or can I make it an executable?
[23:42] <deanus> histo, excuse me?  thats the first bot usage Ive used in weeks.
[23:43] <Seventy8> izmanromli - how do I save it elsewhere?
[23:43] <histo> deanus: yes but if you're querying it you should /msg ubottu searchterm  rather than in channel
[23:43] <MidnighToker> hi guys
[23:43] <izmanromli> Seventy8: save it under your home directory
[23:43] <deanus> histo, I`m not.. It was for Seventy8
[23:43] <histo> deanus: if you're trying to help someone withj the bot !factoid > person or !factiod | person.. The later being putting it in channel
[23:43] <deanus> I just forgot to add his name
[23:44] <MidnighToker> strange problem, if i try and ping a host on my network it fails, but if i use dig then it works  -what am I missing please?
[23:44] <histo> !ntfs > Seventy8
[23:44] <deanus> histo, ok, adolf...
[23:44] <histo> deanus: ^^^
[23:44] <histo> deanus: just trying to help
[23:44] <Seventy8> fancy :-P
[23:44] <Typos_King> haavaros:    well... is not something you'd be doing often I'd think, but sure you can use a script if you wish, sudo won't ask for a password anyway on a rooted live session
[23:44] <Seventy8> I have no idea how to save it to my home directory ): I'm too new to linux, a tad over my head haha
[23:44] <bouta> hi
[23:44] <histo> Seventy8: what are you trying to save to your home?
[23:45] <Seventy8> histo - 3 NTFS drives that I'm going to use for torrenting
[23:45] <histo> Seventy8: you have to make directories to mount them to.
[23:45] <Seventy8> and access from windows pcs
[23:45] <bouta> is there someone who knows if there is a program that converts from pdf to word?
[23:46] <xfact> Chrome and FF still out of java, guys this is where I got the task, and it's half successful http://www.java.com/en/download/help/linux_install.xml#selfextracting
[23:46]  * Qestrel has a screensaver problem...
[23:46] <xfact> please help
[23:46] <histo> Seventy8: are they local drives?
[23:46] <supernatendo> I'm looking at the list of free shell accounts on http://www.bylur.net/free/ and was wondering what others use and what I should look for setting up an http proxy
[23:46] <Seventy8> yep
[23:46] <Typos_King> bouta:    dunno any off hand myself... you might be able to find online services for that though
[23:46] <izmanromli> xfact: still having problem on java plugin?
[23:46] <haavaros> Typos_King: Ok, I ran it as an executable ... just saw a terminal window flicker by, I guess that means everything went like planned?
[23:46] <Hammerhead> WTF I installed server 9.1 and now there is no DNS. I can place hosts in the /etc/hosts file, but putting anything in the resolv.conf file does nothing.
[23:47] <Hz> hello
[23:47] <histo> bouta: freefileconvert.com
[23:47] <Twiple> Hi
[23:47] <Hammerhead> Hi all BTW
[23:47] <Hammerhead> hehe
[23:47] <Hammerhead> anyone seen this?
[23:47] <supernatendo> hello
[23:47] <xfact> I just linked my libjavaplugin_oji.so to the usr/lib/mozilla/plugin, but it's not linking to the main directory most probably for the not having the root permission
[23:47] <histo> Hammerhead: put stuff in /etc/resolv.conf then sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[23:47] <Qestrel> howdy, I have a screensaver question...
[23:47] <Hz> how r you @Twiple
[23:47] <snow_ru> hi
[23:48] <histo> Seventy8: okay well then you just need to mount them.
[23:48] <Hammerhead> Thanks....but I have done that....
[23:48] <snow_ru> How can the developer can add his program to ubuntu repository so that people can use it ?
[23:48] <histo> Seventy8: then you can share them over the network if you want with samba to your windows boxes
[23:48] <Typos_King> haavaros.. well.... haem...    can't say :)... you can I guess do a -> dd if=/dev/sda of=file.mbr    and view file.mbr, it'd be a binary one, if it shows, grub, yes hehe
 Thanks but I have done that....
[23:48] <Crashbit> Ubuntu doesn't detect Seagate Barracuda XT Sata3 hard drive, anyone help me ?
[23:48] <Hz> need help with enabling bluetooth on ubuntu - toshiba a200
[23:48] <Typos_King> haavaros:   other than that, just reboot :)
[23:48] <histo> Hammerhead: is it a wifi card?
[23:48] <izmanromli> snow_ru: AFAIK you must join launchpad.net
[23:49] <snow_ru> izmaelis, can you elaborate ?
[23:49] <xfact> izmanromli, when I came here wit hthis issue, then all of my browser(s0 were javaless, but now except Firefox and chrome every browser supporting it
[23:49] <Typos_King> haavaros:   Ihope you didn't copy/pasted the paste there
[23:49] <xfact> It's a partial success
[23:49] <Seventy8> histo: I'm only using this as a local server / seedbox ... and it's only being accessed by windows computers. Someone else said ... don't overload samba, it's easier to use ntfs and something o.o
[23:49] <Typos_King> haavaros:  since UBUNTUPARTITIONHERE is not a device :P
[23:49] <haavaros> haha
[23:49] <histo> Seventy8: well you need samba to share the local drivers
[23:49] <supernatendo> anyone else using empathy for IRC? I cant get a room list...
[23:50] <goddard> Is there a quick key map for ubuntu?
[23:50] <Typos_King> haavaros:   other than that, just reboot :)
[23:50] <histo> Seventy8: local drives not drivers
[23:50] <Typos_King> supernatendo:   /channels   no?
[23:50] <izmanromli> xfact: i guess it's about permissions
[23:50] <Seventy8> histo: oh... I do have samba installed ... and umm how do I mount the drives to the home directory... I still don't get that
[23:50] <snow_ru> izmaelis, I want to add my program to the official repository of ubuntu
[23:50] <supernatendo> keeps giving errpr 'unsupported command'
[23:50] <haavaros> Typos_King: Yes i did :) Fixed it now
[23:50] <Brokie> supernatendo, Add a user as IRC, and then switch to online, then at top of Buddy List Window, select ROOMS...
[23:51] <snow_ru> how does this process work ?
 nope just a reg nic....nothing wierd
[23:51] <progre55> hi people! I'm connecting an ipod nano to my ubuntu 9.10, but gtkpod is not seeing it. any other programs?
[23:51] <Qestrel> I need to know where Gnome hides the screensaver .conf files, so I can kill the present settings...the screensaver locks up the machine immediately ...
[23:51] <Hammerhead> ping www.abc.com get unknown host
[23:51] <goddard> Is there a quick key map for ubuntu? like a printable one?
[23:51] <Hammerhead> freaking me out....
[23:51] <histo> Seventy8: make folders in your home directory that you want to mount the drives to.
[23:51] <Typos_King> supernatendo:   you can always check /help :)
[23:51] <xfact> izmanromli, yup, I noticed that, do you know how to permit a file for root privileges?
[23:51] <snow_ru> Typos_King,
[23:52] <Seventy8> mmmk
[23:52] <histo> Seventy8: see if they are already availible in the Places menu also
[23:52] <Typos_King> supernatendo:   I don't use empathy :) soo
[23:52] <Brokie> Typos_King, Empathy does not support / switches
[23:52] <supernatendo>  '/help' gives message 'unsupported command'
[23:52] <Typos_King> ohh hehe, that figures
[23:52] <Twiple> xfact other than sudo, I'm not sure.
[23:52] <hopaqk> hello all
[23:52] <izmanromli> xfact: sudo chown 'your_username':root 'file_name'
[23:52] <kruzen> Hi folks, why does my live ubunto 9.10 doesn't open the X and the console stay blinking?
[23:52] <Twiple> or what he said
[23:53] <Brokie> kruzen, depends your graphics card
[23:53] <Hammerhead> OMG I'm an idiot!
[23:53] <hopaqk> sorry I have question who help me ?
[23:53] <Hammerhead> Nevermind
[23:53] <Seventy8> histo: I can see all 3 drives in places... but they show up under computer right now ?
[23:53] <xfact> izmanromli, yup got it
[23:53] <histo> Seventy8: make one folder for each drive. then you would mount /dev/hdx /home/seventy8/mountpoint      each drive where X is the letter that is there.
[23:53] <Blackice115> Hello all! I'm trying to download unetbootin on linux to make a linux live usb stick. I downloaded the "for linux" program and I can't figure out how to open it. It says it's an executable but when I try to open it in terminal it says I'm not authorized
[23:53] <lappie> im trying to figure out what is the diff between kubuntu and ubuntu besides the kde and gnome environment. does kubuntu have a specific use like programming or networking or what is it designed to offer thats different from ubuntu?
[23:53] <andrespp> hopaqk: what is your question?
[23:53] <supernatendo> im just not gonna use empathy then...
[23:53] <xfact> Twiple, thanks for try :)
[23:53] <hopaqk> I have problem to telnet
[23:53] <Typos_King> snow_ru:   haven't done that myself, sooo can't say, I'd think they'd have some howto adding a .deb to their repository
[23:53] <Brokie> supernatendo,
[23:53] <histo> Seventy8: and you will want to edit your fstab so that they get mounted on boot i'm assuming
[23:53] <Brokie> PM
[23:54] <blakkheim> lappie: kde/gnome is the only difference
[23:54] <histo> !fstab > Seventy8
[23:54] <Brokie> supernatendo, PM
[23:54] <histo> Seventy8: check out the message from ubottu
[23:54] <kruzen> Brokie: I have an Geforce 9600 gt, is that a problem?
[23:54] <Seventy8> histo: k
[23:54] <izmanromli> lappie: kubuntu gives you 'Windows/Mac' looks-n-feels
[23:54]  * xfact just changed the file too root, now it's judgment time!
[23:54] <xfact> *to
[23:54] <Brokie> kruzen, how is your monitor connected?
[23:55] <kruzen> Brokie: how so?
[23:55] <Brokie> kruzen, thats what I'm asking you
[23:55] <Brokie> kruzen, what type of connection did you make for your monitor?
[23:55] <xfact> Still it dumping
[23:55] <supernatendo> I cant even '/msg'
[23:55] <haavaros> Typos_King: Weird... mount -t ext4 /dev/sda5 /mnt returned "special device /dev/sda5 does not exist
[23:55] <lappie> ahhh i see. what is the kubuntu chat room name?
[23:56] <Seventy8> histo: I feel retarded but I've got no idea where the drive letter is.... /facepalm.......
[23:56] <Twiple> #kubuntu
[23:56] <Myrtti> lappie: #kubuntu - logically
[23:56] <Twiple> I think
[23:56] <Seventy8> histo: owait nvm
[23:56] <lappie> thank u guys :)
[23:56] <xfact> Well, when I am giving a linked file root privileges, then do I have to give that too to the original file?
[23:56] <Twiple> no problem
[23:56] <Typos_King> haavaros:   does it show as ext4 under -> sudo fdisk -l;
[23:56] <histo> Seventy8: yeah its a bit tricky but you can type in sudo fdisk -l  to get a list of the drives on the machine in a terminal
[23:56] <kruzen> Brokie: actualy I was trying to use two
[23:56] <kruzen> Brokie: one using geforce and other the onboard
[23:57] <Typos_King> haavaros:   something tells me you're not using a 9.1 live-usb boot
[23:57] <izmanromli> xfact: you should chown or chmod it's original file .... not the linked one
[23:57] <Seventy8> histo: it all made sense when I saw it in disk utility... listed /dev/hda1  mounted at /media/ONE  (named the hdds ONE TWO THREE)
[23:57] <faron> hello again everybody hey therejrib,you still here ?...weird...installed swfdec mozilla plugin from synaptic pack mgr but mozilla doesn't see it ??? looked in tools-addons-plugins & extensions & it's just not there...but syn says it's installed
[23:57] <histo> Seventy8: well hda would be primary master hdb would be primary slave etc..
[23:57] <snovbx> xfact: install the java plugin from the ubuntu repositories
[23:58] <histo> Seventy8: they are named a certain way for how they are hooked up to the machine.
[23:58] <snovbx> xfact: i got it working like that
[23:58] <supernatendo> '/msg' '/help' '/whois' nothing works in emapathy! giving me a message 'unsupported command' WTF!!!
[23:58] <histo> Seventy8: but sudo fdisk -l will list all the hard drives that you can see.
[23:58] <blakkheim> supernatendo: use a better irc client, such as irssi
[23:58] <timboy> system monitor shows 70%+ utilization on both cores but nothing in top or processors shows over 5% usage... help plz!
[23:58] <Seventy8> histo: ok thanks (:
[23:58] <blakkheim> timboy: use  htop
[23:58] <Typos_King> xfact:    just a quickie, do you have java installed?
[23:59] <kruzen> Brokie: but I already tried with just the geforce and didn't work too
[23:59] <Brokie> kruzen
[23:59] <Typos_King> xfact:   not the plugin, the actual full runtime package, which is about 40mbs
[23:59] <haavaros> Typos_King: Yes, this is 9.1 live usb
[23:59] <Brokie> I keep asking HOW your monitor is connected
[23:59] <histo> Seventy8: then you can follow the directions for fstab once you know which dev they are.
[23:59] <Brokie> HDMI, VGA, Component, Composite....
[23:59] <Joker_-_> Why do ubuntu has empathy as the default messenger? Isn't pidgin way more usable or at least mature/functionnal?
[23:59] <faron> anybody explain to me why firefox not recognizing swfdec mozilla plugin I just installed from synaptic ?
[23:59] <Typos_King> haavaros:   then maybe you may want to try entering the the commands one by one :)
